Kom en worden onze gasten!
The condo was wonderful! More than what I expected, even decorated for the holidays.!Very clean and well kept. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. I took my elderly mother and the main floor bedroom worked out great,She didn't have to go up and down stairs.The condo was close to all attractions and shopping-spent most of our time at Silver Dollar City, and it was great to come back to after a long and cold day. The owner was prompt and courteous with answering my questions and sending me info for our stay. I would definitely recommend this condo to anyone and we are even planning on renting it again next year. Thank You!!!!!
Loved our stay here. Third bedroom is a loft, nice that all bedrooms have king beds. Great location and amenities.
Did not get to stay due to unexpected baseball circumstance - team fell apart so no World Series, but the owner is a very professional, kind person. Plan to go to branson in future because want my boys to see mountains and get to fish there, zip line, etc, and will definitely look up this owner then. Thanks again.
Excellent accommodations and value. Owner is very easy to work with. This is the second year we have stayed here.
We vacationed at one of David's condos in July 2010 and found it to be everything we needed. We had 4 adults and 4 teenagers, so having 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms worked out great. (Teens got the loft bedroom and bath, as well as living room couch, which they thought was pretty cool to have their own space up away from the adults.) Knowing it was going to extremely hot, our biggest concern before getting there was whether the pool area was as nice as it looked in the pictures and would we be able to get chairs. Well, it was even nicer than the pictures and really was never very busy. All in all, condo is very nice, has everything you need, and all will like the pool area!.
This was advertised as 3br3ba. We arrived and discovered it was 3br 2 1/2 ba. We were three sisters w/spouses (in our 60's and 70's) and would not have rented this unit had we known two couples would be sharing a bath. Unit was not real clean: stove dirty, carpet dirty (stairs), grounds unkept. In fairness, when we complained they refunded 25.00 per night but our vacation was not what we would have desired; too late to do anything about it after arrival!

My husband and I stayed at the Comfort Inn, North Myrtle Beach on our way up the coast. We decided to spend the night in North Myrtle Beach, found a coupon for a reasonable rate in a book we found at one of the Welcome Centers, and was pleased that the hotel happily took the coupon at the discounted rate.
The hotel is away from the beach and the main sights, but very near many restaurants. In fact, when I opened the curtains to my room I was looking at people standing in line to get into the Outback Steakhouse. The lobby is professionally decorated with the roomy pleasant breakfast area near by.
The room we received was very nicely decorated and the temperature was already set on the air conditioner for our stay. It was a very hot day and the room was already at a pleasant temperature. There was a refrigerator and microwave in the room. The bathroom was stocked with towels and toiletries. The wifi was excellent on the computer.
The price of the room came with a hot breakfast which included eggs and sausage. I wish we could have stayed more than one night, but we were on a schedule.
I would highly recomment this hotel and would stay at this hotel again if I'm ever in North Myrtle Beach, SC.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The Comfort Inn® hotel in North Myrtle Beach is located less than three miles from the Atlantic Ocean and close to Barefoot Landing, offering a diverse selection of shops, entertainment and restaurants all in one location. The Alabama Theatre, the Carolina Opry, Dolly Parton's Pirate's Voyage dinner show, SunCruz & Big M Casinos and Ripley's Believe It or Not! Museum are minutes away. This North Myrtle Beach hotel is also close to dozens of championship golf courses. Be sure to ask about the outstanding winter golf packages. There is a wide variety of restaurants and cocktail lounges within walking distance of the hotel. Broadway at the Beach is 15 miles away. ... more less

text: OK guys, I know one of you can tell me the answer. I have a G33 with "EHRXXX US" I know this is several years old and I just noticed today that it had "US" after the serial number. and it is only on the metal tag on the lower frame, not on the barrel or slide. I don't believe Glock was making guns in the US that many years ago, Can someone tell me what this means? Also my son has a G22 4th Gen that says Patent pending on the lower frame? Could this be a rare model? Thanks, Eli

- Originality 5. Still like this secret-ghost-cop thing. Also the tagline "Bedlam breaks free" really does apply and it gets points. I wish the book had focused on this more, because then this score would be higher (and the book would be better/scarier)
- Absurdity: 8. Oh man, I picked the bad guy out of the lineup literally the first time they were introduced. Rory, you are a fool.
- Level of Paranormal Romance: 2. WELL I can't say much for this book, but the cliffhanger suggests that the next Shades of London will have an exemplary paranormal romance for our girl Rory. For the bit of romance in this book, I was INTO that kiss. But one kiss does not a a high score make.
- Level of Harry Potterness: 4. I didn't sense a lot of momentum in this story. I will still finish the series, but I hope the next book brings more spunk and a plot I can get invested in.

The captain of the Dutch national team says his players were subjected to racial abuse at a training session in the Polish city of Krakow this week, just days before the Euro 2012 football tournament was due to begin in Poland and Ukraine.
Several hundred people reportedly targeted black members of the squad with "monkey chants" during an open session Wednesday at the Stadion Miejski, the home of Wisla Krakow.
"It is a real disgrace especially after getting back from Auschwitz [the Dutch squad had visited the concentration camp on Wednesday] that you are confronted with this," Mark Van Bommel, the Dutch captain, told a press conference late Thursday.
"We will take it up with UEFA and if it happens at a match we will talk to the referee and ask him to take us off the field."
Euro 2012 hosts hit back at racism accusations
When questioned over the incident by Dutch journalists who claimed they did not hear the abuse, Van Bommel replied: "You need to open your ears. If you did hear it, and don't want to hear it, that is even worse," according to ESPN.
The buildup to the football showpiece, which kicks off in Warsaw on Friday, has been marred by a host of reports highlighting incidents of racial violence in the Eastern European nations.
The families of two of England's black players, Arsenal's Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain and Theo Walcott, will not be traveling to Ukraine and Poland, while Italy and Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli says he will walk off the pitch if he is targeted by racists.
The England team is scheduled to hold a "ticketed" session for around 3,500 fans at the same stadium in Krakow on Friday.
UEFA president Michel Platini says players must not take matters into their own hands, and that any player that walks off the pitch will be cautioned.
Referees will deal with racists
"It is a referee's job to stop the match and he is to do so if there are any problems of this kind. I count on the fans from Western and Eastern Europe to come to participate in a great football feast. If I am here as a UEFA chairman and you all are here it is because we want this to be a football feast, not a problem," he told reporters Thursday.
A recent documentary from the BBC featured right-wing supporters from both Poland and Ukraine displaying racist and anti-Semitic attitudes. The "Panorama" episode broadcast footage filmed at matches in both countries that purported to show fans displaying Nazi salutes in the stands and aiming monkey chants at black players. This prompted former England footballer Sol Campbell to warn fans not to travel to either country. If you did hear it, and don't want to hear it, that is even worse.
Dutch skipper Mark Van Bommel
However, officials from the co-hosts hit out at the program. Marcin Bosacki, a Polish Foreign Ministry spokesman, told CNN it was "cheap journalism," while Volodymyr Khandogiy, Ukraine's ambassador to Britain, said it was "unbalanced and biased reporting about the situation in Ukraine."
But Piara Power, executive director of the Football Against Racism in Europe organization, said there was still plenty of work to be done in both countries.
"I think we know the situation in domestic football in both Poland and Ukraine and I'm afraid the documentary hit the nail on the head -- it's a very bad situation," he said.
"Nevertheless there is some good work going at grass roots level to make sure that Euro 2012 inside stadiums does not resemble the sort of scenes we saw in the documentary."

how often does nintendo update there VC section? cuz i have been waiting 4 smb3.
i think they update it monthly....i think im not too sure on it tho
Monday!!!! For the US.
Could be a while until they release smb3 since they just released smb. Since there is no known release schedule it's hard to say, but Nintendo has public said they will release bigger VC titles to drive sales so the dates will vary.
ull get ur games eventually, lots to be released yet.. .so many great games lol.
Yes, new games in the US are released on Mondays.
anyone know when ther gonna whack new n64 titles on there??
Yeah it'd be great to see SMB3 on there. That is one fantastic piece of software. I'd really like Super Mario All Stars though, although I'm not counting on it. Nintendo would probably rather make us buy all the games separately first, then we can buy them all in one.
i'm waiting till they hack it..roms here i come (homebrew too)

File photo MANILA, Philippines -- Actress and singer Sharon Cuneta defended Charice, who's now being criticized for her outburst during the elimination night of "The X Factor Philippines" last Sunday. In her official Twitter account, Cuneta, who's also been a target of online critics, praised Charice for having the courage to speak out. "Yey!!! My Kristina's (KC Concepcion) here! She and I are gonna have dinner together here lang. She was telling me how some people in the audience were sad, and some siyempre were happy na top 3 na lang ngayon. Guys, if you wanna fight for Charice that's okay. But I'm glad to know Charice knows how to fight for herself. She's brought nothing but pride to this country," Cuneta said. "And may I just say that I am not at all close to Charice. We don't text, we don't talk, we haven't had the chance. I just feel for her because I am a performer too," Cuneta added. On Sunday's episode, Charice became emotional after her two wards, Allen Sta. Maria and KZ Tandigan, found themselves in the bottom two. Charice admitted she was hurt with the result, but added that the two girls are already "superstars." After judges Gary Valenciano, Martin Nievera and Pilita Corrales decided to vote out Sta. Maria, Charice burst into tears, promising the young hopeful that she will always be there as her mentor and friend. Then Charice berated the crowd, some of whom began to laugh. "I'm sorry, everybody should stop. This is not a joke, okay? I've been holding this for a long time and this is not a joke. Congratulations sa lahat ng nakapasok pero please, this is Allen," she said.

Sponsors Journals Itinerary Gear List Maps
Route 66 was (and remains) the highway we simply cannot forget. From the very beginning it has occupied a special place in the American conscience. It epitomizes (and cuts right across) the heart of America, the very soul of this great nation. From the skyscrapers of Chicago, through the cornfields of Illinois, the lush Ozark hills, the heartland of Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas, the southern reaches of the Rockies, the pine forests of Arizona, the desert Southwest, and on to the golden shores of the Pacific, Route 66 winds its way through a marvelous cross section of America. It passes by small towns in the Midwest, the arid Native American lands, the natural wonder of the Grand Canyon, as well as the bustling streets of Chicago, St. Louis, Oklahoma City, Albuquerque and Los Angeles. It embodies the core values of America, of those "good old days," with its mom-n-pop service stations, motor courts, diners, souvenir shops and trading posts. Historic Route 66 is, in itself, an icon of American culture. It truly is America's Main Street.
Historic Route 66 lives on to tell a thousand stories–of hope and heartbreak, of love and hate, of starting over, of new dreams found around the next bend, beyond the hazy blue. Route 66 is our story; it embodies what makes us a great nation. Like so many of our old trails/roads of the past–the Oregon, Santa Fe, Pony Express–Route 66 will live on in our collective memories. Ah, and isn't it interesting that no other culture has ever experienced this type of love affair with the open road–indeed, with freedom.
The story of Route 66 had its beginning nearly two centuries ago, when our young country began migrating westward. The vast unexplored lands beyond the Mississippi River fired the imagination of the American people. Out of the ruts of the National Old Trails Road, which was laid down over the traces and trails blazed by our early explorers, mountain men, trappers, missionaries and pioneers, Route 66 was born. It became the twentieth century version of the Oregon Trail, the golden road to the Promised Land. The early years of Route 66 coincided with unparalleled economic strife and global instability, yet it hastened the most comprehensive westward movement and economic growth in U.S. history. Like the early, long-gone trails of the nineteenth century, Route 66 helped spirit a permanent mass relocation–west. Known affectionately throughout the years as The Mother Road, Main Street of America, and the Will Rogers Highway, to this day does Route 66 live on in our collective memories–as an experience, a feeling, a perception, a marvel of sight and sound, and a mystery that can only be least appreciated and understood by traveling it.
Historic Route 66 passes through eight states, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California. Traveling (or hiking) the remains of this old highway today provides a glimpse into the past, a simpler, more laid-back time, the way America was before the rushing hell of our interstate highways. Back then, road travel was not the monotony of endless miles. Instead, it was a journey in itself, through towns and little villages with their motor courts, eye-catching signs, diners and bars with odd names, and lots of souvenir shops and trading posts–an amazing diversity of people and landscapes. Over the 50 or so years of its existence, the road underwent many improvements and realignments, which changed its path and overall length. By 1970, nearly all segments of the original road were bypassed by modern four-lane highways, and by 1984, the remaining vestiges of Route 66 were either given up or paved over by the interstate. Route 66 was finally decommissioned in 1985–and the familiar Route 66 markers came down.
No highway in the history of our nation is as fabled as Route 66. It has been immortalized in song, literature; there was even a TV series. In 1946, Bobby Troup, former pianist with the Tommy Dorsey orchestra, composed a song with the catch phrase "Get your kicks on Route 66." John Steinbeck, in his 1939 novel, Grapes of Wrath, called Route 66 the Mother Road. His book, combined with the 1940 film of the epic journey of the Joad family during the Dust Bowl/Great Depression, served to immortalize Route 66 in the American conscious. "Route 66," a popular television series during the early 1960's, drove into the living rooms of America every Friday evening. The theme song for the series "Open Highway" made Billboard magazine's Top-30. "Cars," a computer-animated (Route 66) comedy-adventure was released by Disney in 2006. The original production, plus retail merchandise sales topped ten billion dollars. Known as "The Verse by the Side of the Road," Burma-Shave was a brand of brushless shaving cream that was sold from 1925 to 1966. The company became known for its innovative advertising campaign, which included rhymes posted all along the nation's roadways. Typically, six small fencepost-supported signs were erected, the first five containing a line of verse, and the sixth displaying the brand name. Here are a couple that I remember seeing along Route 66: IN THIS OLD WORLD – OF TOIL AND SIN – YOUR HEAD GROWS BALD – BUT NOT YOUR CHIN – Burma-Shave and BIG MISTAKE – MANY MAKE – RELY ON HORN – INSTEAD OF BREAK – Burma Shave. And who hasn't visited or heard about Meramec Caverns? The caverns became well known early on through another unique advertising technique–barn murals. Although advertising signs on barns aren't permitted in most states today, those along Historic Route 66 that promoted Meramec Caverns–many of those still exist, defying time.
Route 66, the nostalgia and romance surrounding it, continues to capture the imagination of people around the world. Though it long ago ceased to be, Route 66 has retained its mystique. Steeped in history, nostalgia and romance, the highway has become an American icon, pure Americana, celebrating the golden age of the open road.
So, folks, that's a bit of history about Historic Route 66. I can remember the old highway, the way it was, as I had the pleasure of motoring stretches of it back in my youth–in my '53 Ford. That was during the late '50s and early '60s, the heyday for the old highway. It was THE highway back then. To this day, does it beckon me still! Ah, and now on to Odyssey 2017, Nimblewill's adventure along Historic Route 66:
Beginning July 27th, from downtown Chicago (eastern terminus of Route 66), I'll shoulder my meager pack and head for Santa Monica. This journey is destined to take some 124 days, covering around 2,300 miles. Maps for this odyssey, plus my itinerary are posted here. So, along with daily journal entries and photos, you'll be able to track me and follow along. And please do–Your support and encouragement has always provided great energy

I am now back from my Thailand trip and trying to overcome the annoying jet lag! Since I have returned home, I've been wide awake when the rest of the family are asleep. Even though Thai time is 3 hours behind Australian time, I find myself nodding off for an afternoon nap and then feeling restless when it's suppose to be bedtime. Boohoo! You can say I went quite crazy with my SLR and waterproof camera during my time in Thailand. I managed to go through 3 memory cards, so I guess that speaks for itself. Here I have filtered through my overflowing load of photos (which has indeed been a mission) and chosen a selection of what I felt best communicated my experiences in this wonderful country called Thailand - the land of smiles.
Be prepared for a solid run of posts and videos (yes, moving pictures this time!) throughout the upcoming days.
For my first post, here are some snaps of our departure from Sydney and arrival in Bangkok. I cannot forget the moment I set foot out of the well-conditioned Suvarnabhumi Airport and immediately felt the thick humidity of Bangkok air strike me in the face and made me break a sweat in an instant. I now knew then the true definition of 'humid'. Hahaha
Wearing: Floral sleeveless button-up top (Supre), vintage Levi's denim cut-offs (Glebe Markets), my super-comfy slipons (Best n Less) and Rayban Wayfarers.
Being my first post on Thailand, I cannot refrain myself from expressing my admiration and love for the country and it's people. Thai people are very friendly and welcoming and I'm very happy to say I was at complete ease walking through the streets of Bangkok greeting "Sawadee ka" (hello!) to locals and stallholders. My good friend Czarina and I learnt a decent amount of Thai from her Lonely Planet on the way there and tried our best to speak it as much as we could. Though both of us are of Filipino nationality, everyone thought we were both Thai and we could not help but to milk it for all it's worth ;) SAME SAME? Perhaps so for our time in Thailand hehehe.
MORE posts to come - Chinatown Bangkok is up next! Definitely one of my favourite places in Bangkok. Miss it already.

Identifying Your Design Style
Two years ago here on the GHID blog, we had a series called Detecting Your Interior Design Style. In it we covered Eclectic, Contemporary, Traditional, and Modern styles! Today we are reviving this old series with a brand new season of exciting episodes, the first of which will cover mid-century modern style!
What is the Definition of Mid-Century Modern Interior Design?
Mid-Century Modern is essentially just what it sounds like. It is a style that was first popular from roughly the 1940's to the 1970's, and came out of Word War II as designers opted for a more organic and simple style, full of curves and geometric shapes. The term was popularized in the 80's, with the release of Cara Greenberg's book Mid-Century Modern: Furniture of the 1950s. The term applies to furniture, architecture, and art. In architecture, Mid-Century Modern homes can be identified by a large amount of windows and an open floor plan, and almost are always found in post-war suburbs. These homes were designed to bring a modern touch to these suburbs, and met the needs of the average American family at the time.
Let's Get Familiar with Mid-Century Modern
Organic shapes and a desire to incorporate nature into interior design is a staple of Mid-Century Modern.
While natural, curvy shapes were incorporated, there was also an emphasis on geometric shapes. The key was to get the two to work together in harmony!
Walls of windows and fold-up furniture with multiple uses were both popular when this style first began, and can still be used very tastefully today!
Hopefully this gave you a jumping-off point to do your own research. What style should we tackle next here on the blog? Let us know in the comments!

Love this shop so much, amazing items and good prices to match! c: 5/5 - Hannah
A Shop With More Edge Written by Morgane Kimmich ALTERNATIVE (noun): "THE CHOICE BETWEEN TWO MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE POSSIBILITIES "
DRESS CODE – Imagine a clothing version of Aladdin's Cave in Albert Road, Portsmouth - offers to its customers. Dress Code has witnessed many changes since it has first been established, 20 years ago. Changes in fashion with the vintage turmoil but also regarding its clientele and the outside world. And yet its owner, Linda Fitzgerald, decided not to choose a particular trend, particular customers and an unique direction. That's why she created a 'one-stop-for-everything' shop with clothes, shoes, bags but also books and records, mixing brand new items with second-hand garments. Dress Code'It all comes down to music' confessed Elle who works at Dress Code. This was the definition of alternative back in the days: wearing your favourite band tee-shirts, having tattoos and so on. Alternative today somehow looks more conventional. Indeed, boundaries between marginal and casual have been blown as the industrialization and standardization of pretty much everything – clothing, music - skyrocketed. Therefore, it's quite hard to identify who's really alternative nowadays. Is it the fashionista willing to follow all the trends or the vinyl fan willing not to follow any? Dress Code doesn't follow fashion; it just relies on Linda's good eye in order to create the trend. Her inspirations are many and diverse ranging from the students of Portsmouth selling their work to the world famous Camden market in London. The latter is a micro world where everything can be found: clothing, accessories and weirdoes. Linda wanted to recreate this atmosphere in Albert Road, offering her customers the possibility not to travel to London. The gamble paid off as Dress Code attracts many curious people willing to find out what this shop 'with more edge' is all about. Punk kids, vintage addicts, teens and many adults scramble in everyday. Dress CodeWilling to fight this clothing standardization, Dress Code offers further alternatives. Without rejecting any shop or style, Dress Code proves that the 'High Street' way of shopping is not the only one. The independent shops of Albert Road show that mass production can be fought and everyone's uniqueness can be preserved. Dress Code is also fighting for the best prices, renewing its suppliers if necessary, therefore proving that the maxim 'cheap and crap versus expensive and good' is no longer on. Once again, it goes far beyond fashion. This isn't the story of one particular shop in Portsmouth, it's about a life style shared by many people around the world. Being alternative is not just wearing the right tee-shirt but actually knowing what's the story behind it. Elle perfectly summarized the shop's motto by saying that it is a 'good melting pot of vintage and alternative, offering the customer a different option to the norm'. Norm's fine but if you want to spice up your wardrobe, choose the right dress code no matter whether it's vintage, modern or future.

Our clients say…
"The advantage of working with Faye and Matt at OH Creative is that you not only enjoy their collaborative, professional and imaginative approach to website development, you also get to speak to real people who want to understand your business.
This is how the IT world should work, but rarely does."
David Pye, The Great Holiday Collection
"For somebody who is terrified of technology and their own laptop I was so relieved when I was recommended OH Creative. From our initial conversation they put me at ease with the whole process; I predicted a painful and expensive experience but it actually turned out to be hugely satisfying and amazing value for money.
They totally understood what I wanted and created a beautiful working site for me with just the right kind of creative feel and energy. They advised me on every step, kept in constant contact and remained patient and utterly professional throughout.
I could not recommend OH Creative highly enough"
Lisa Bradshaw, Lisa B Pilates
"OH Creative were brilliant to work with – creative, efficient and very effective. We are very proud of our new site and love the fact that we continue to get very positive comments about the look and design.
We will continue to recommend OH Creative to anyone who is looking for a complete branding and website design company. We would be very happy to work with them again, and I am sure we will!"
Don Parkin, Boutique Bar Brands
"I am so very pleased with the website that OH Creative have built for Paella Fella. Working with Faye and Matt at OH Creative was so easy the whole way through. It was like a breath of fresh air.
I wanted a website that would help us develop the business and Paella Fella brand and take it to the next level. They immediately "got" the brief, understanding completely the essence of what Paella Fella is all about and encapsulating it perfectly into the website.
From the very start they paid close attention to the brief and provided ideas for consideration over and above what I had planned for. This, combined, with a simply constructed and implemented project plan made it very easy for us to work with them as the site was developed and implemented just ahead of schedule. If anything, we weren't quite ready for them!
Our website is the cornerstone of our marketing strategy and early results are showing already a significant and healthy increase in wedding and corporate enquiries. We are at the beginning of our new website journey as we continue to build Paella Fella both as business and brand – I am looking forward to developing our working relationship with OH Creative which is intrinsic to that goal."
Nick Blythe, Paella Fella
"We are so pleased with the work OH Creative have done for us – our website looks wonderful and the whole process was smooth, well-explained and unpressured.
They really cared about us as a company and gave us plenty of options and ideas to create a wonderful finished product.
OH Creative gives a truly personal, professional and creative service"
Sarah Delahunty, Cowans Solicitors
"OH Creative are by far the best website designers we have worked with. They provided great attention to detail and listened to our ideas well. OH Creative are quick, professional and dedicated to making sure the end product is exactly what you want.
Highly recommended, you won't be disappointed! Well done to Faye and your design team."
JH Partners Consulting Engineers Limited
"OH Creative have been incredibly supportive and proactive in all aspects of brand design and online set up (website, email etc.) whilst I have been setting up my consultancy business. Not only are they professional and incredibly good at what they do, they are friendly and welcoming and always willing to help!"
Kerry Rizzo, Tigerlou
"We are really pleased with our new site. The SI360 website came in on-time, within budget and OH Creative provided great customer service!"
David, SI360
"OH Creative provided a fully comprehensive and cost effective approach to redesigning my website to include eCommerce and flexible ongoing content management. Their service was prompt and the handover was detailed. Any questions I have had since have been dealt with quickly and efficiently.
I would fully recommend their offering."

A great memory game for kids with pictures of Spiderman, the famous comic character in red and blue suit endowed with "superpowers" ... so play and have fun!
Spider-Man is a superhero wearing a suit typically red and blue. This character was created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. His first appearance is in the comic book in 1962 titled Book Amazing Fantasy. Similar to the spider, is able to move on any surface, whether that is its inclination to spiderman and also the ability to project a spider web very strong and sticky.
A memory game specially designed for kids 8 years old and over. The cards are arranged in 5 columns and 4 rows for a total of 20 cards or 10 pairs. You have to Reconstruct the pairs of cards by turning them 2 by 2. If the cards turned face up are the same (a pair) you win and the pair disappears from the game otherwise the cards are automatically turned face down and you need to make a new try. Find all the pairs in the least moves and in a shortest time. You will find the full rule of the memory game here.
Every time you start a new game, a random selection of the cards ensures a different game, so you can replay endlessly
Great exercise to train kid's memory. It's also a good practice to help them memorize the locations of different cards and you will be quickly surprised by their progress. This game will reinforce and boost their visual memory storage capacity in a playful way.

When Endeavour astronaut Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper dropped her toolbag during a spacewalk on Nov. 18th and it floated away, mission controllers probably thought they'd seen the last of it. Think again. Amateur astronomers have been monitoring the backpack-sized toolbag as it circles Earth not very far from the International Space Station. After sunset on Nov. 22nd, Edward Light saw the bag using 10x50 binoculars as it sailed over his backyard in Lakewood, New Jersey. "It was quite a favorable 70-deg pass in clear skies," he says. "The visual magnitude of the bag was about +6.4 plus or minus half a magnitude." On the same night, Keven Fetter of Brockville, Ontario, video-recorded the bag zipping past the 4th-magnitude star eta Pisces. "It was easily 8th magnitude or brighter," says Fetter. This week the toolbag is making a series of passes over Europe; late next week it will return to the evening skies of North America. Using binoculars, look for it flying a few minutes ahead of the ISS. Spaceweather's satellite tracker is monitoring both the space station and the tool bag.

The Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") recently held a workshop that brought together regulators, academics, policymakers and industry professionals to discuss the smart TV ecosystem and the opportunities and challenges faced by companies seeking to harness the consumer measurement and targeting capabilities available through these smart technologies. This was the FTC's first foray into this area. It was an initial effort to describe the ecosystem, define the issues and draw some conclusions about where the FTC may have a role to play in establishing ground rules and protecting consumers.
It was clear from the discussions that the FTC believes that smart TVs are just one component of a much larger and not yet fully formed smart entertainment ecosystem. From a policy perspective, the FTC set forth a very broad definition of a smart TV or smart entertainment device as "something that enables internet connectivity on a large screen format," such that smart peripherals (e.g., smart Blu-ray players and Roku) are also captured in this definition.
The benefits to the content, distribution and advertising industries are numerous, as was discussed in the overview that detailed the opportunities smart TVs offer companies to collect data for a variety of purposes (e.g., delivery of relevant content, research and product development, measurement and ratings, advertising, and cross-device tracking), and through a plethora of means (e.g., cookies, device IDs and other unique identifiers, IP addresses, data-capturing software, embedded chips or video cameras, and voice capture).
In addition to presentations from FTC staff, there were two panel discussions. The first of which was the measurement and targeting panel that included representatives of several media measurement companies (comScore, CIMM (which is a coalition of programmers), Tivo Research and Samba (a software measurement company)) and the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI"). The panelists discussed ways in which the data collected can be used to inform manufacturing, understand audiences, customize content offerings and recommendations, and serve targeted advertising on a household-by-household basis and across application platforms. They described an effort by New York cable companies to pool and analyze their set-top box data, leading to the conclusion that one-third of New York viewing was of non-English-language programming that is not captured by Nielsen ratings. The comScore representative suggested that as TV seeks to replicate the capabilities of online advertising and move to more targeted ads, the online advertising industry is seeking ways to expand its reach to television levels by advertising more broadly.
Yet, not surprisingly, with increased data collection and optimization capabilities come consumer privacy and data security concerns and challenges. Consistent with what has come to be expected from the FTC, one of the underlying questions was about consumer expectations for smart TV privacy. Security is an incredibly important issue for smart TVs, as emphasized by Justin Brookman, the FTC's policy director for its Office of Technology Research and Investigation, who reiterated the fact that security was a key concern in connection with the FTC's internet of things report and security will continue to be an issue in connection with smart devices. The FTC expressed a continuing interest in exploring the expectations consumers have with respect to the duration of the useable life of connected or smart devices, and the obligations that should be in place for companies to update those smart devices (i.e., whether smart devices get security updates, how regularly and for how long following a consumer's purchase).
As a possible indication of the approach the FTC may take to smart device privacy compliance, the agency walked through its own research into the policies and practices of three smart TV platforms currently on the market, focusing its review on three components: (i) disclosures (i.e., what information was made available to consumers), (ii) data flows (i.e., what types of data were collected from the devices and where the data were stored) and (iii) controls (i.e., what types of data privacy controls, platform level or otherwise, were available to consumers).
Observing the growing convergence of cable television, app companies and TV manufacturers around smart devices, an NAI representative also noted that the organization has begun to think about notice and choice in different ways, with the goal of eventually developing an NAI code for third-party collection and use of data from smart TVs. The NAI described consumer education as one of its key goals, such that the organization leans toward solutions that would allow consumers to click on an icon (similar to AdChoices) in the smart TV environment in order to access more information, rather than implementing jarring disclosures on a screen.
The second panel of the workshop was titled "Consumer Understanding and the Regulatory Framework." This panel included representatives from the Berkeley Lab for Usable and Experimental Security, Epic, Public Knowledge, Consumer Reports and the Data and Marketing Association ("DMA"). While the DMA described self-regulatory efforts as successful, the Berkeley Lab representative described them as a failure, suggesting that consumers have lapsed into "learned helplessness" with respect to privacy. Some panelists called for broad privacy legislation, a one-button opt-out on remotes, broader definitions of personally identifiable information that include device IDs and pseudonyms, and privacy policies that describe companies' practices in more precise and specific terms. The Consumer Reports representative said they are developing a privacy rating system to include in their smart TV product reviews.
While we are still in the early stages of smart device development, the DMA previewed their Next Generation TV white paper, An Overview of the Existing Landscape and a Recommended Approach for Cultivating Continued Innovation in the Ecosystem, which was released the next day. The white paper described the legal and regulatory landscape for the use of smart TV data, addressing the potential application of certain key laws (i.e., the Video Privacy Protection Act, the Cable Act and wiretap laws) to smart devices and calling for a more flexible and consistent self-regulatory regime to replace the current balkanized set of laws and regulations.
As the smart device ecosystem continues to evolve, we can expect that traditional applications of the various laws, rules, regulations and self-regulatory industry guidelines and frameworks, as well as the best practices based on them, will continue to evolve as well. It seems likely that the FTC will also play a role in establishing and enforcing best practices for the collection and use of data in this area.

Reds 10, Braves 5
ATLANTA - Unseasonably cool temperatures, topped off with a soft, soothing breeze, made for a beautiful night for baseball Friday in Atlanta.
But it didn't make for beautiful baseball. At least not so far as the home team was concerned.
Before a bulk of the 32,315 denizens at Turner Field had even settled in their seats, Horacio Ramirez, steady the past month but not Friday against the Reds, had already wrecked their evening plans.
The left-hander gave up seven runs and recorded just three outs, and Atlanta fell into a 9-0 hole that was far too deep to emerge from in a 10-5 Cincinnati victory.
The Reds' eight-run second was the worst pitched inning by the Braves in 2006. In the second, Ramirez allowed six runs, by himself tying the previous season highs set April 6 at San Francisco and May 20 at Arizona.
"It was shocking, very shocking," said Chipper Jones, who hit a two-run homer but said too much damage had already been done. "He's pitched so well lately. That came out of nowhere."
Ramirez was 2-0 with four earned runs allowed in his previous three starts since June 11.
That day, in Houston, the 26-year-old got knocked around - metaphorically and literally. He gave up seven runs in 1.2 innings. And his brutal afternoon ended when he was bruised by a Lance Berkman line drive.
Lifting up his cap and scratching his head with the sun still alive Friday evening, Ramirez (4-3) looked equally as dizzy as he left to the sound of quite a few boos.
"I wasn't too good tonight," Ramirez said of his thought process as he exited. "It seemed like every pitch I threw, they hit the ball hard every, single time. There weren't any cheapies in there."
Ramirez gave up seven hits and saw his respectable 3.47 ERA shoot up to 4.65. He faced six Reds in the second inning and failed to record a single out.
Manager Bobby Cox said Ramirez's tightening right hamstring caused him to leave his pitches up. Ramirez said his leg was bothering his delivery somewhat, but said it was no excuse for his performance.
Ken Griffey Jr. was the only Red that didn't register a hit in a 10-hit second inning.
Rich Aurilia's 11th home run of the year, a two-run shot off likewise ineffective Oscar Villarreal, made it 8-0. The Reds tacked on one more with Jason LaRue's infield hit to score Brandon Phillips.
LaRue wasn't even in the game when the onslaught began. He entered as a pinch runner when starting catcher David Ross injured himself legging out a double.
The Reds' drumming also ended Atlanta's shot of going 8-2 on the homestand to fulfill John Smoltz's ultimatum of perceived postseason hope. Well, there's always 7-3. The Braves had won five of seven on the homestand prior to Ramirez's implosion.
Stunned by the deficit, it took Atlanta until the fourth inning to even log a hit off typically hittable Eric Milton (5-4).
Edgar Renteria's double, which extended his hit streak to 12 games, ended Milton's run of 10 consecutive outs to begin the game. Jones then hit his 11th home run of the year to put the Braves on the scoreboard and lengthen his hitting streak to 11 games.
Jones, who went 2-for-4 with three RBIs, is 22-for-43 with four homers and 15 RBIs in the streak.
His run-scoring single in the seventh made it a four-run game, but, with two on, Andruw Jones bounced out to third to end the inning and the relative threat.
"It's hard to overcome nine runs," Cox said, "and we almost did it."
A Braves bright spot, reliever Kevin Barry might be making a push for an increased role, if not a spot in the starting rotation.
Granted, it came with the Reds way ahead, but the recent call-up went four innings, didn't allow a hit and struck out five, including the side in the fifth.
Barry hasn't given up a run in his first nine big-league innings. He's allowed just two hits, a pair of walks and struck out eight.

I read through the page that talks about compatibility, changing file names, etc. but I am quite a caveman!
Is there a simple way I can just put the flash card into my PC (Windows machine), pull up my sounds and change the file name that way so that I can put my "X" sounds into the "S"? I realize some sounds won't transfer because of the B bank in the X, but most will.
Found a great deal on an S so am using as a backup (if I can get the sounds transferred!)
Thanks all

PAIVA, Geraldo José de et al. Religious experience and aesthetic experience in plastic artists: perspectives from the psychology of religion. Psicol. Reflex. Crit. [online]. 2004, vol.17, n.2, pp.223-232. ISSN 0102-7972. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0102-79722004000200010.
Can aesthetic experience replace religious experience? Researchers are quite divided about this issue. From a conceptual and epistemological framework that distinguishes between substantive and functional religion, we formulated the hypothesis that there is not a substantive replacement, but there can be a functional replacement of religious experience by an aesthetic experience. We also considered the additional hypothesis that aesthetic experience can be an experience of the sacred. The hypotheses were examined with the help of interviews with eight well known Brazilian artists, by the time of the 23rd Biennial International Exhibition of Arts of São Paulo, 1996. The data revealed differences, continuities, and analogies between art and religion and between art and the sacred, that allowed to identify in some cases a functional replacement of religion by art, especially if art was endowed with the density of the sacred.
Keywords : Aesthetics; psychology of religion; religious experience; the sacred.

Discussion in 'Star Trek Movies: Kelvin Universe' started by SilentP, Jun 26, 2009.
Both have their pluses.
i voted for uhura because she rocks the house. gaila is nice, and probably would be more fun on a date, but also apparently has quite a taste for the guys, so one date might be all you'd get. uhura has beauty and more brains that most guys could probably handle. she represents us women very well, i think.
....and, i hate to say it, but wasn't gaila on one of the ships that we see floating in pieces above vulcan? wouldn't that make her, uhm, deceased?
I'm hoping she was on the Enterprise. Or that she made it to an escape pod. I really want to see her in the next movie.
I think they left it open-ended enough, they could theoretically bring Gaila back, if there's enough interest. They might end up doing so through a non-movie related book, however. If it doesn't fit into script for the second movie, don't expect to see her.
We never heard which ship she was assigned to, but I also don't remember seeing a green face in the crowd for those who were there to see Kirk's promotion and award ceremony. It's iffy, but possible.
M'Sharak et al, regarding "Lt. Syd Downe" (or flight officer) and whether she's the pilot: I just returned from the movie, and towards the end of her scene, Captain Pike can be heard over the com to say that everyone should prepare for take off.
So, clearly Pike is piloting the shuttle. Straight from the horse's mouth on that. I guess it's such a ubiquitous comment that none of us noticed it heretofore.
Well, it makes sense that there'd be two pilots on board, so she's the co-pilot and is doing cabin safety checks (hauling drunk doctors out of the washroom) while Pike preps the shuttle for take-off.
td, indeed. Speaking of Mayweather piloting earlier, Captain Archer piloted the shuttles sometimes, too.
Speaking of, where was his reading mat'l for the washroom trip, anyway? Severely lacking presence in the film! Some 23rd century version of "She's Just Not That Into You!" ?
But yeah, that's what I thought I saw. Thanks for the confirmation! I wonder if someone who looks a bit like her will dress as her and tell convention goers to sit down, all over the place...
You're welcome; I watched her scene especially, since we'd been wondering.
She was a good character; I wouldn't mind seeing her again either. They had many good characters with only a few words spoken.
Now here's an idea... Some of us ( ) were hoping for a bit of love interest for McCoy in the next movie... I could see something between him and our feisty flight officer...
She's proven she knows how to handle him. I didn't mean that in the Kirk bar-scene sense, but...could be interesting.
I was pretty sure I remembered his announcement and it's confirmed now by you. (Just in case, though, for anyone who wants to check, go here and watch CLIP: Kirk Meets McCoy. )
Not really, I mean it certainly factors because it is one of the things that show her personality just as her other scenes in the movie, but I'd have voted for her on the basis of everything else, anyway. It's really no contest as far as I'm concerned. Uhura has a much stronger and more interesting personality, and she is IMO more beautiful as well (although not as beautiful as Nichelle's Uhura, but close). Look at how Uhura tells off Kirk in the bar, and then look at Gaila's 'I think I love you' -clearly Uhura is awesome, while Gaila is not. Gaila comes off as dizzy, while Uhura is smart, determined, and knows what she wants and what she deserves, and she's caring and loving as well. Besides, I didn't even think Gaila was anything but OK-looking until I realized others thought she was hot, especially with the bad green makeup job they did on her. Uhura is the kind of gal I can relate to and have a girl crush on; and that I'd probably be in love with if I was male.
Gaila is not "chubby" at all. But if she's supposed to be incredibly attractive on the basis of big boobs only... oh well. You may say that this is where I am incapable of understanding male mindset, but I really don't believe that's all I would care about if I were male or that I'd feel any differently.
This could be the basis of another poll... Spock/Uhura or Spock/Chapel? Shipper war!
I never thought of that, but I like the idea!
They are both Starfleet cadets. I think we can safely assume they are both very intelligent and with an IQ above the average 23rd century Joe.
Agreed on the not chubby thing.
But if there's one thing Gaila does not have is big boobs (as is also evident by the actress playing her)
A good push-up bra she has, yes.
I'm not saying that she's stupid, and I'm sure that a certain level of intelligence is needed to be a Starfleet cadet... however... I'm not sure if being at the Academy is a guarantee of being very smart...
After all, Cupcake is a Starfleet cadet, too.
I wasn't really paying attention in the movie, but they sure looked big on some of the pics of Rachel Nichols posted at the Men- Gaila or Uhura? thread!
According to my girlfriend, Gaila is "ugly and green".
And ? How is Cupcake not very smart ?
Because of the bar fight or his looks ?
Granted, he is a security officer which I suppose does not require the brains of a computer scientist, but still...
He has to be able to assess situations and people and make some quick, smart, strategic decisions in the heat of a possible battle.
Anyway, these folks make far too brief appearances and have far too few lines when compared to someone like Uhura to be able to really tell too much about them.
Wait... so Gaila died?!? How did I see this movie 3 times, and never notice the destroyed starships hovering over vulcan. If she's popular enough though... maybe the producers will decide to pretend she was on the Enterprise. I'm pretty sure she wasn't but looking at the results of the mail Uhura vs. Gaila poll... maybe they'd keep her in to attract males to the next movie? I voted for Uhura, I don't dislike Gaila or anything, but I thought she was pretty, confident, and awesome.
Separate names with a comma.

Slash has denied he played on Michael Jackson's single 'Black or White' saying the songs riff is ''gay'' and uncharacteristic of his playing.
Slash has denied he played on Michael Jackson's 'Black or White' and has branded the song "gay".
The former Guns 'N' Roses guitarist worked with the late 'King of Pop' from 1991 onward, but has denied appearing on the lead single from his 'Dangerous' LP - saying confusion arose from the fact he played on another track, 'Give in to Me', from the same album.
He told US TV network CNN: "I never played on 'Black or White'. If you listen to the riff, that's gay. I'd never play that. I played on 'Give in to Me' and in the 'Black and White' video, when Macaulay Culkin was trashing around, that's me playing."
Slash, 44, also spoke about the 'Thriller' singer's untimely death - from acute intoxication of the powerful anaesthetic Propofol at his home in Los Angeles, last June - and the child molestation accusations he faced.
Michael settled the first case with Jordy Chandler out of court in 1994, and was acquitted of all counts in the second case in 2005.
Slash added: "Michael Jackson was f***ing amazing to watch. The one thing that Michael really wanted was for somebody to like him and the child molestation accusations just sorta just killed him. The fact that he was doing downers really makes sense for his lifestyle."
Meanwhile, it has been revealed the first track on a posthumous album of Michael's unreleased songs will be a recording made with another guitarist, Lenny Kravitz.
The song had originally been planned for inclusion on the singer's 'Invincible' record, but was cut from the final tracklist, because it was considered "too Rocky".
'Lemmy' is the biographical documentary film of one Ian Kilmister, legendary rock'n'roller and leader of...
