Hello to all.
In 5 weeks time, me and 3 friends will be travelling to Vienna, Austria. At first it was an 8-day vacation focused just on Vienna and Bratislava, however in the end we rented a car and will go to all these places:
Now my query is if someone can give me clear indications on the toll charges for each one of them and how and from where to pay. Also when I booked my rental online, I was not asked if I will leave the country but I think it will be asked when we pick up the car? Any idea of the prices to travel to other countries? Or at least indications as I would understand that it would be different from one company to another.
In regards to the toll queries, these are the full trips I'm planning to perform:
Tuesday 25th August 2015 - Vienna----->Budapest
Wednesday 26th August 2015 - Budapest----->Zagreb
Thursday 27th August 2015 - Zagreb----->Graz
Thursday 27th August 2015 - Graz----->Vienna
Saturday 29th August 2015 - Vienna----->Bratislava
Sunday 30th August 2015 - Bratislava----->Prague
Monday 31st August 2015 - Prague-----> Vienna
Thanks a lot,

Hello to all.

Have a look at http://www.theaa.com/allaboutcars/overseas/european_tolls_select.jsp
You will see you need a vignette on the windscreen for many of the countries you plan to visit. Your rental may or may not have one already for Austria, but is highly unlikely to have them for Hungary, Czech Republic etc.

1.700km in 7 days? Have fun enjoying the autobahn in August when many. many European families will be returning home from their holidays. Also, factor in an extra 25% (at least) of driving time for Vienna to Budapest, Bratislava to Prague, and Prague to Vienna. There is currently road construction that has traffic reduced to one 80km/hr lane in several long sections.
You will need vignettes for Austria, Hungary, Slovenia, Slovakia and Czech Republic, all of the countries you intend to visit, plus one extra for Slovenia for the pleasure of driving through from Zagreb to Graz. Each average €10-12 depending on the country. Do be certain to place the vignettes in the proper position on the windscreen, as many (even the short-term) are monitored by overhead systems on the highways.
And, for planning, petrol is averaging approximately €1,20 per liter, or about $5 per gallon. Prices are higher for fuel stops along the autobahn.
Take note of where you park your car, as well. I know that Vienna, Budapest and Prague can be expensive places to park if you are not familiar with parking restriction signs.
Report Abuse
Well this certainly is a road trip. Will be nothing but driving, eating, sleeping and moving on.
You need to check to see if you are even allowed to take any particular car into all of these countries - it may not be allowed and if you do so you would have no insurance coverage. And must you go to vienna 3 times - surely there is a better routing!
Report Abuse
I fully second all the advice you received so far, fourfortravel has a good point with the road construction. If you love driving and your trip is not low cost, you'll be fine, even though you won't see much more than the highway and some rushed city visits..
The vignettes can be bought from gas stations, the closer to the border the better. On some border crossings, there's even a specialized store for vignettes, always clearly marked. Apart from the vignettes, you don't have to pay any toll.
In my opinion, it would be better if you stayed with your original plan, or added just Budapest.
Report Abuse
Hi thanks to all for the replies.
thanks for the information. do I need only to pay for these vignette stickers? is this the toll charge? what happens when we reach the border?
Report Abuse
wow what a detailed information. thanks so much. Yes a lot of distance, however we will stay each night in the location that we arrive. So it's not directly road trip. Also thanks for the info on the road works. So the vignettes are all I need for the tolls? And from where should I buy them? Beforehand? or while on the border check? I saw somewhere that you need to buy them from petrol stations?
Report Abuse
Do you think we won't have time to visit even for a few hours in each of the locations? We will sleep in the travelling location each night so we don't have to get back to Vienna at night.
In regards to Vienna, our flight arrives and leaves from there, so we need to be in Vienna at least for 2 times. The third time in between will be worthwhile since we will stay for 2 days.
Report Abuse
Actually I won't be the one driving but my friend. What do you eacatly mean by not being low cost? From what I'm being told it won't be that much expensive just average €12 per place and the cost for fuel?
Thanks for the info on the vignettes. Why it's better to buy them next to the border? Also thanks for clearing that there aren't involed any costs other than the vignettes.
Report Abuse
The vignettes can be purchased at the borders and, usually, at petrol stations near to the borders. That's all you need in terms of highway tolls.
You also need to factor logistics time to park the car, check into your lodging, map your sightseeing course for each particular city if aimless wandering isn't your thing, and collect the proper currency for your destinations (Euros for Austria and Slovakia (and Slovenia, if you stop for anything); Koruna for Czech Republic; Forints for Hungary; and Kunas for Croatia.)
Personally, with just 8 days, I would keep the trip simple (Vienna, Bratislava, and Budapest or Vienna and Prague) and travel between the three by train.
Report Abuse
the currency won't be an issue as I will buy them beforehand from my country, Malta, as they offer hassle-free not expensive rates and refund you the money you come back with.
I will carefully think about reducing a minimum of 1 destination for now, as we have already booked the car rental :/
Report Abuse
Hey J,
Good advice above.
7 countries in 8 days?
You don't know if you will be permitted to take your car out of Austria?
What are the xtra charges for pickup in Vienna and drop-off in Prague?
Why can't you take the trains?
> 8-day vacation focused just on Vienna and Bratislava
Very good idea.
Report Abuse
It's actually 5 countries in 8 days. Or 6 cities in 8 days.
Nope I don't know if we will be permitted, however from what I read most car rentals allow it.
I can't drop=off in Prague as my flight is from Vienna so I would still to get to Vienna.
The main reason for all this was infact the cost of the trains. Some friends of mine will be going there coincidentally a week earlier and will go by train from Vienna to Budapest and it will cost them €80 including the return. That's when I said it's better to rent a car and visit more places.
Report Abuse
No based on your schedule you will have one day in Vienna. And why not spend your time there when you arrive or leave - rather than coming back to Vienna a 3rd time?
And I suggest that you may not be in the cities at the times the sights you want to see are open. We don't know what your must sees are - but I would definitely check what days they are open as well as what hours. (What if the sights you want to see closes at 5 or 6pm?)
Report Abuse
Sorry - I have no problem with road trips. We have done at last 20 of them in many different parts of europe. But for us a road trip means driving no more than about 3 or at most 4 hours per day - getting from one town to another to stay in - or doing a day trip from the town we are staying in.
Part of the reason we do this is for the serendipity allowed by following our noses to see what we see - not being stuck to driving 8 or 9 or 10 hours per day. Another part is the chance to drive fast cars fast - which is rapidly disappearing in europe - although speeds are still much higher than here (55 max in the state).
There is no way I would do this drive if several of the roads are being reconstructed.
Report Abuse
Although Google Maps' estimates of driving times between your destinations aren't too crazy-long, I think you're under-estimating the real life time it will take. Add a half hour at each end to check in/out of hotels, load up the car, etc. Then, time for lunch, finding the next hotel, looking for parking, possible traffic delays, etc. It all adds up.
I would skip the middle stop at Vienna and just drive Graz to Bratislava. Put all of the Vienna days at the end. I'd probably also skip Prague because, IMO, the distance is too far for essentially a half day there.

Your schedule is ABSOLUTELY doable. Don't worry.
I do trips like this for living, so I can tell you, this is absolutely possible. Especially taking into consideration that first, you will be moving eastwards, so you are ABSOLUTELY NOT going to be affected by the holiday traffic.
The only thing that is not clear to me is why Zagreb??? I would have definitely changed it in favor of Ljubljana, it's s-o-o-o much nicer. From Budapest it is just 50-60 minutes more driving time.
Now on to your schedule:
Everything is fine except I would recommend you to leave earlier for Bratislava, you will need 3-4 hours at most to discover all the most important spots over there. Most of the time I am easily doing it on my way from Budapest to Prague and all my clients agree that this is more than enough to learn about this city/town. The downtown (interesting and nice) area is really small, in comparison with other neighboring capitals. You better continue your journey on the same day, on to Prague and you will have one more day for Prague, which is a whole lot better option.
Some people say that 1,700 km in 7 days is too much. Well, we have to accept the MOST Universal fact, that we are all different. Someone needs a whole week for any given city, while the other one does it in a single day or even less. And guess what? They are both happy with their achievements. So simple.
I'll tell you something even more "frightening".
A couple of times I have done the Budapest-Vienna transfer via Prague. YES, I am not kidding.
Normally it looked like that:
We left at 7:00 am from Budapest, by 1:00 pm we were in Prague. We had a 3-4 hour tour of the city, than a lunch in a local restaurant. At 6:00 pm we leave for Vienna. At 10:00 pm I dropped them at their Hotel there and shortly after midnight I was back home in Budapest.
My clients told me that they are probably never going to be back in central Europe again (No discrimination or whatsoever. They just considered that's more than enough for them and the world still has tons of other places to explore.) So they decided why not throw in Prague as well. However short trip it was, they still have seen the major sites and they were happy about that.
Or take a look at this:
This is a 1,700 km (1,060 miles) tour in guess what? 5 Days!!!
We leave early morning from Budapest. 5-6 hours later we have a relaxing 30-60 minutes stop at the shore of the magnificent Traun See (lake) in Austria. Normally at the Restaurant and Seecafe Spitzvilla in Traunkirchen. The views of this pristine lake and the surrounding mountains, from the restaurant terrace are absolutely magnificent. An hours drive from there and you are in Hallstatt. We take an electric boat, ride the lake for an hour or so. The town of Hallstatt is absolutely the best when explored from the water. The views are amazing. Then have a lunch in one of the local restaurants. Ask for the Reinanke (a kind of trout from the lake) its absolutely gorgeous. One of the most Delicious fishes I ever had.
A stroll through town and off we go to Berchtesgaden. Overnight in this little charming town.
Next morning after breakfast we visit the Kehlsteinhaus (the "Eagle's Nest") http://www.kehlsteinhaus.de/en/. This place is located at 1,834 m (6,000 feet)altitude on top of Berchtesgaden and provides a marvellous and unforgettable view over the eastern alps and the König See. An absolute must see, especially taking into consideration its history.
After the tour and the usual coffee-snack pause and off we go to drive through the magnificent Grossglockner Mountain highway-Pass (http://www.grossglockner.at/en/). If you want to visit the Austrian and not only Alps and you have only one choice, than this is the PLACE!!! You will remember that drive forever. The vistas, the Glacier at the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höheetcher, everything is simply magical.
By 6-7 pm we are in Cortina D'ampezzo, the place of the winter Olympics and probably the fanciest winter resort in Italy. If you plan to visit, especially during the weekend, than do your bookings beforehand. Even in the summertime its really crowded and you easily end up paying 200-300 Euros/room/night. This happened to us during our first visit there
Walk around the town, diner, usual procedures.
In the morning you will probably enjoy the amazing views from your Hotel terrace/balcony accompanied with a real Italian espresso. After that we leave for Misurina lake while stopping at the Rio Gere chairlift station along route SR48. The lift takes us to 2,200 m Rifugio Son Forca, at the slopes of Monte Cristallo where we take the second lift and go up to almost 3,000 m (9,000 feet) to the Rifugio Lorenzi.
There are absolutely breathtaking views over there. You have seen it to believe. After fully enjoyed the views and a coffee-cake stop, we go down and follow on to Misurina lake. Same thing, beautiful views, etc etc. Then we continue on to Slovenia, Portoroz. In the evening a diner, visit to the Casino, whatever you want. Next day, relax at the sea side in Portorozh, a visit to the mini Venice town of Piran with dozens of local sea-food restaurants, so having a lot of fun.
The morning of the 5th day we leave for Budapest with a few hours stop in Ljubljana.
ALL in NO HURRY, absolutely leisurely pace, no crazy driving whatsoever. The views, even along the super highways are amazing with zillions of chances for a fantastic photo-stop, lovely little cafes, restaurants, B&Bs, etc. This is really an easy-driving tour.
Throw in a 6th day and visit one of the most amazing places on earth. The Plitvice Lakes National Park. This is not simply a UNESCO heritage, no, this is real paradise on earth, even with huge tourist crowds.
So 1,700 km in 7-8 days. I think it is more than enough, especially when your budget and time is very limited.
And yes, you can take your rent a car absolutely everywhere in Europe. Even to Ukraine. If they don't allow you, which is hardly possible, then immediately forget about that specific company, wish them good luck in their business and in 5 minutes you will find dozens of more, without any limitations.
Happy travels.

As an addition to my posting I forgot to mention, that probably the only setback of taking your car to another country is that they may charge you around 10% more of their regular rates. But this usually applies to the smaller companies, the ones that have a only a dozen or so vehicle fleet. Then again, their (small companies) rates are much better than the large ones. Also a huge advantage of the smaller companies is that you can leave a deposit in CASH. Smth like 400-600 Dollars (equivalent in Euros). In case of any damage to the car (kinda, someone scratched it in the parking lot and left without any notice or a nice stone from a big truck's wheel cracked your windscreen) you will save yourself a lot of hard time negotiating the amount of the caused damage. This happens quite frequently, especially in Spain, Greece, Italy. When they have your credit card, you are exposed to the (sometimes enormous) appetite of the given rent a car company's damage estimator and believe me they are not faint-hearted on charging exorbitant sums off your card. You have to know that in Europe the average priced CDW covers only about 80-90% of the caused damage. Well yes, there are some 100% CDW-s but then their cost is very high.
Also as for the the estimated driving time:
On a European super highway (Autobahn, Autopista, Autostrada, Cesta, Autopalya etc.) on an average with all the pit and photo stops, you can easily make 90-100 km (55-62 miles) an hour. On any given average country road it's about 60-70 km (37-43 miles) an hour.

thanks a lot okszi only now I realized about your post. will be reading it right now

This is one of the worst itineraries I've seen. Okszi may do trips like this for a living because he's a tour guide. That doesn't mean you'll actually see a lot or experience the cities. Each is different, each country is culturally distinct, and the differences (especially when you start going into the Balkans) are significant. The trip is a checklist, nothing more. You were better off when you and the lads were going to do Vienna and Bratislava in 8 days.

Thanks again for the advice okszi, however your second part itenary is way too much even for us since we dont know about most of the places you mentioned but thanks a lot for taking the time to help me.

<<"I will try to fix it a little and reply back.">>
This is a wise notion. Think about what you're wanting to see and where and why. Something attracted you and the boys to Bratislava and Vienna.
Budapest is a different culture - Magyar, not Teutonic; junior partner in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, former Commie satellite treated worse than the other Warsaw Pact countries (first to revolt, not Slavic), massive death toll in a short time under the Nazis (2nd largest number of Jews killed of any country in Europe even though the Holocaust didn't reach Hungary until 1944).

To Clayton,
Another long post...
The tour, I described was JUST (and I have to stress JUST) a sample of that you can actually do a 1,700 km trip in 4-5 days. Nothing else, just a banal example, that's it.
I am probably extremely narrow minded, but I simply can't understand why some people so obsessed with those short-term city-country trips. We are all SOOOO Much different. It's an absolute universal truth. Based on 7 visits to the USA, sometimes a month long stays with friends, I can make an assumption (based on meeting hundreds of people), that the overwhelming part of the US population considered the 3-7 days cruises (Carribbean etc.,), when they have just half a day or even less for a single location, is absolutely the best way to see the world.
OF COURSE, I know, it's not like that, but still it does for millions of people.
OK, just today I had a last (out of 4) trip with a Russian family. This was their FIRST EVER visit to Europe. For many years, they had dozens of trips to the Turkish Riviera, The Emirates, Egypt, so all the spots highly favored by Russian tourists (better say crowds).
So, they had a day trip to Vienna, a day trip to the Danube bend, a day trip to Gyor and Pozsony (OK, most of the people call it Bratislava, but not the Hungarians and today a trip to the Tihany peninsula, a few hours of having fun in the world's largest (functioning) thermal lake Heviz.
After that, today they had the ONE and ONLY, Absolutely incredible highlight of their, as I have said before, first ever visit to Europe.
Guess what? It was a short visit to a "nothing special village" called Tab. Don't even try to find any particular tourist sights over there.
But this was the PLACE of the former Soviet Army base, where the Guy served his military duties from 1979 to 1981. Yes, it was quite ruined, neglected and time worn (the Russians left it in 1991) but for him it was like a fulfillment of a child's dream. He showed me the windows of his room in one of the barracks, the location of the guards, the canteen, officers headquarters, how they patrolled the positions along the barbed-wired (and electric) fence, the disposition of the artillery, etc. Also it was the first time ever, he had a chance to see the launching facilities of the ballistic nuclear missiles. The Russians had 9 of those missiles over there. Even being a Soviet soldier, he was strictly banned from even approaching those underground silos. Only a specially trained task force had access to the launchers.
So even for him it was the first time he could access the once forbidden ground.
By the way, I tell you, it was quite an impression even for me to see one of the silos, now full of ... Hay!!!
Yes, one of the new owners of that property keeps Hay for his goats. So the soldiers and nuclear missiles gone and the goats came and happy to live there...
Well this was also JUST an example that some people do not Rave and care a lot about archeological or historical sights, but they are mighty happy of having a chance to visit a former Warsaw block military facility or just taking a 2 hour boat trip around the canals of Venice. So simple.
Happy travels to everyone.

Dear Jean,
I Normally I post my comments, carefully reading through what the others have said before me.
I have written in capital letters after the sentence you have highlighted:
"OF COURSE, I know, it's not like that, but still it does for millions of people."
However if you would have just checked through the statistics of the river cruise running companies figures multiplied with the number of cruise boats docked downtown Budapest every single day, you would be amazed. There are literally hordes of tourists (at least third of them American) jumping out and in of those boats and having sometimes less than a day for enjoying our beautiful city. Do you think they are not happy about that?.....

Monday Matinee Birthday Edition - "Chocolat"
Today is my 29th Birthday.....oh boy,lol. It feels very odd to say that I am almost 30. Next year I'm sure I will have a huge freak out about it, but for now I will keep calm and carry on.
This weeks movie is one that I find myself popping into the DVD player over and over again because it's just that enjoyable........"Chocolat". I love this movie for so many reasons. The story is endearing, the idea of making chocolate according to ancient recipes fascinates me, and the colors used in the movie are amazing as are the gorgeous 40's and 50's clothes. Did I forget to mention that this movie also stars Johnny Depp? Just some more eye candy to add to the box.....
The Plot:
Vianne Rocher and her young daughter are drifters who are met with skepticism and resistance when they move to a conservative town in rural France and open a chocolate shop during Lent. As Vianne begins to work her magic and help those around her, the townspeople are soon won-over by her exuberance and her delicious chocolates - except for the mayor, who is determined to shut her down. When a group of river drifters visit the town, Vianne teaches the townspeople something about acceptance, and finds love for herself along the way.
You will just fall in love with the character of Vianne. Her fiery spirit and determination, her beauty and sex appeal and of course her killer wardrobe. This movie will also have you craving sweets like no ones business. I am actually not a huge fan of chocolate on a regular basis and prefer to save it for once and a while treats.....but when I watch this movie I want to ravage a candy store like the Incredible Hulk.
Enjoy the show!

Just in case I have yet to mention it, I am a huge KISS fanatic. They have been my favorite band since I was a little kid, followed only by Oingo Boingo. I go to shows and I dress up, useually as the drummer and my favorite member of the band Peter Criss. On Saturday the BF took me to see KISS over at the Jones Beach theater. It was an amazing show and I had a great time. Anyway, here is my costume.
Everything was pulled from my regular wardrobe and of course the make up is by me.
Tonight we went to see MC Chris in concert on a boat ride around Manhatten. It was totally fun and random. For those of you who are not familiar with MC Chris, he's a nerd rapper who does some voices and music for shows on Adult Swim such as Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Sealab 2021.

Monday Matinee - "Radio Days"
This Monday I bring you a film from the 80's by Woody Allen. I am actually not a Woody Allen fan usually, this being the only movie of his that I have actually given my full attention to and own. My Dad loves this movie and that is probably the reason I saw it and came to love it myself. He says it reminds him of his childhood and our large family....he's right. Besides the fact that this is a delightfully endearing film because of the plot and the acting, it is also a visual treat for anyone who loves and embraces the 1940's. This movie is a love letter to the 40's, the radio and to family. You will recognize many well known actors in this film as well, not just from the Woody Allen stable. Watching a little Seth Green is priceless, especially when you think at how he has grown. I love the romance crazy, music and marriage obsessed character of Aunt Bea, played perfectly by Diane Wiest. Her clothes are simply to die for and they represent what the average young woman would have worn back then.
The Plot:
Woody Allen's sentimental reminiscence about the golden age of radio. A series of vignettes involving radio personalities is intertwined with the life of a working class family in Rockaway Beach, NY circa 1942.
The Narrator tells us how the radio influenced his childhood in the days before TV. In the NYC of the late 1930s to the New Year's Eve 1944, this coming-of-age tale mixes the narrator's experiences with contemporary anecdotes and urban legends of the radio stars.
Even though the narrator's Jewish American family lives modestly in the Queens neighborhood of Rockaway Beach, each member finds in radio shows an escape from reality through the gossip of celebrities, sports legends of the day, crooners, etc. For the narrator, the action adventurers on the radio inspire him, as he daydreams about his attractive substitute teacher, movie stars, and WW2. Meanwhile, the story of an aspiring radio star's career is also told, along with the tale of the narrator's aunt Bea and her search for love.
The musical score features songs from the 1930s and 40s, which play an important part in the plot. I can't watch this movie without singing along actually.
For more information on the time period when this movie is set, referred to as "The Golden Age of Radio", click here

Friday the 13th!!
Today is Friday the 13th. We have been getting quite a few of these lately. Traditionally, tattoo shops will do a F13th special of set designs incorporating the number 13 for only $13. I have a 13 tattoo on my right outer ankle of a scared black cat standing on the number 13. I would love to go out and get a tattoo today but there isnt a place around here doing it and I don't really feel like going into the city. I'm sure there will be plenty of other times to get inked in the future, especially since I have great plans for tattoos.
I have been a really bad blogger lately and I'm sorry. There has just been massive stress and drama going on around here and I fell off track. I will be back on track next week, I promise.
Until then, have a awesome and spooky Friday the 13th everyone!!!!

Virtual Fashionista
I love to shop, like most women. I actually do a fair share of actual shopping for I am indeed a shopaholic clotheshorse. See I can admit my problem!!
I also know that too much shopping takes it's toll both on closet space and on the wallet, which is why I live out some of my fashion fantasies in the virtual world.....
Ladies, meet Polyvore ! For those of you not familiar with the site, let me fill you in. Polyvore is an online fashion database filled with clothing from hundreds of designers, online shops ect....you create an account, then look through or search the databases for clothes you like and add them to your collection. You can then organize all of your clothing and accessories into select groups or create awesome little outfit collages with them. It's like shopping for everything you want without the guilt of actually buying it. Sure, I may not really own those fabulous McQueen platforms but I do on Polyvore!!!
Sometimes I like to pretend that everything I add to my collection will magically be mailed to my house.....Hey, I can dream can't I??? Polyvore really is fun and you will find yourself sitting there for hours creating the perfect outfits to show off.

Monday Matinee - "Grey Gardens"
This film is a feast for the eyes. It also makes one think about life and it's twists, and how things work out differently for everyone.
When I first saw the film Grey Gardens in 2009, I instantly became enamored with Little Edie Beale . I loved her drive and her ambition, her fashion sense and creativity and sympathized with her losses and defeat. She was a dreamer, so am I. She was completely eccentric and didn't care who knew it. I admire that about her.
I also found myself growing more and more angry at her mother, Big Edie Bouvier Beale. I resented her for holding Little Edie back, for keeping her a prisoner of guilt and duty in Grey Gardens. I know now that it wasn't done out of complete spite, but rather out of complete fear. Fear of being alone, of dying alone and losing what little you might have left. I think that those are deep fears that we all have inside of us somewhere.
The whole movie I just found myself rooting for Little Edie, cheering her on and hoping that she will finally have her chance. I have always loved a film that can put me on the characters side right from the beginning, that can make you feel for them, become attached to them. This film does all of that and more.
The story of Grey Gardens has also been immortalized in a Broadway musical and most importantly in a documentary made in the 70's by Albert and David Maysles.
The plot:
Based on the life stories of the eccentric aunt and first cousin of Jackie Onassis (both named Edith Bouvier Beale aka "Big and Little Edie") raised as Park Avenue debutantes but who withdrew from New York society, taking shelter at their Long Island summer home, "Grey Gardens." As their wealth and contact with the outside world dwindled, so did their grasp on reality. They were reintroduced to the world when international tabloids learned of a health department raid on their home, and Jackie swooped in to save her relatives.
The film stars Drew Barrymore, looking epicly gorgeous in the flashback scenes, as Little Edie and the ever talented and glamorous Jessica Lange as Big Edie.
The costumes in this film are just gorgeous. I would love to own all of Little Edie's clothes and accessories. Since the time line of the film spans from the 40's through the 70's, there is plenty of great fashion to be seen. Even Little Edie's madcap improvised ensembles from her later lifel in squalor at Grey Gardens are wonderful. They are colorful, inventive and theatrical...just like their creator.
Some photos from the film:

....of hair that is.
I often look back at old pictures to see how my hair has changed over the years. Sometimes it's funny,sometimes it's awesome and sometimes it's scary....lol.
I have decided to share some choice pictures of myself through the years with you, my dear readers. Hopefully some of you will respond by posting "Hairstyle Evolutions"on your own blogs. I know I'd love to see them ;)
Little me, circa 1984. This is my natural hair color in all it's glory.
Senior Prom, 1999. I am the pale one on the end in case you couldn't figure it out,lol. My hair was something along the lines of my natural hair color and twisted up into these little knot thingies. I looked like an Alien, but I liked it.
2003, long and red. I kept it this way for quite a while.
2007. Yes, that is all my real hair. I regret cutting it like no ones business. I'm painfully waiting for it to grow back.
2009. Right after I moved back to NY from Vegas and started my job at the evil salon. This is as much blond that has ever been in my hair.
2009. The dreaded cut. I don't know what I was thinking. It was summer and it was hot and I wanted a change. I never sat and thought about having to wait FOREVER for it to grow back.
2010, Las Vegas. Went red again and loved it....just hated the upkeep.
2010, still red and psyched that my hair was actually long enough to do a front roll.
2010, back in black. This is me letting the little Goth girl who lives inside of me come out and play at the Tim Burton exhibit @ MOMA.
2010, current style and length of my hair. It's finally long enough to do a decent roller set on, but still not nearly as long as I would like it.
Your turn! Show me the do's people.......

Islamabad, Aug 10(ANI): The United Nations (UN) has rated the floods in Pakistan as the greatest humanitarian crisis in recent history.
According to assessment done by the UN, the number of people suffering from the massive floods could exceed the combined total in three recent mega disasters-the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the 2005 Kashmir earthquake and the 2010 Haiti earthquake.
Although the current 1,600 death toll in Pakistan represents a tiny fraction of the estimated 610,000 people killed in the three previous events, some two million more people - 13.8 million - have suffered losses requiring long or short-term help.
"This disaster is worse than the tsunami, the 2005 Pakistan earthquake and the Haiti earthquake," The Telegraph quoted Maurizio Giuliano, a spokesman for the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), as saying.
The floods first struck the western province of Baluchistan on July 22 before inundating the worst-hit Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province and then entering Punjab and Sindh.
According to reports, "Pakistan's worst national disaster" is threatening greater damage as relief and rescue work have been hit badly by continuous rains, particularly in the north western region.
The Pakistan Army is leading the relief effort by evacuating people, distributing drinking water, food, medical aid and repairing bridges and roads.
Earlier, UN Special Envoy for Assistance to Pakistan, Jean-Maurice Ripert, had said that Pakistan would need billions of dollars to recover from the unprecedented devastation caused by the floods.ipert said that the UN was still calculating specific figures, but "the emergency phase will require hundreds of millions of dollars and the recovery and reconstruction part will require billions of dollars".
He also said that the foreign aid could be difficult to procure given the ongoing financial crisis around the world.
According to officials, water from swollen rivers has also entered occupied Kashmir, where more than 130 people have reportedly been killed. Some parts of Punjab are said to be under six feet of water.
The world famous ancient remains of Mohenjodaro are also under threat from the swollen Indus River in the Sindh province.
Over 900,000 cusecs of water is expected to enter Sindh through the Indus River raising fears over the safety of Mohenjodaro, which was declared a World Heritage site by the UN in 1980. (ANI)

THE VIGNETTES These Memphis gals are so talented, they've played blindfolded. They also put out some of the most solid punk since the '90s riot grrl heyday. With only a drum and guitar, the duo (Francis and Freddi Vignette) creates bare-bones, driving rock that goes straight for the jugular. Francis usually takes care of the outrageous wails and guitar shredding, while Freddie holds it down on the drums. Together, they create sharp, fast songs like "Comic Book Heroes" and heavier jams like "The Zoo." These scrappy girls self-manage, self-release and refuse to be judged for their sex appeal only. Poly Styrene, rest her soul, would be proud. $6. 9 p.m. The Milestone.

Helmeted Guineafowl, Close-Up
Caption: Helmeted Guineafowl (Numida meleagris) close-up, showing the colorful red cap, blue neck and horny casque (or helmet) on its head, Letaba Camp, Kruger National Park, South Africa.
Below: Close-up of the guineafowl's feather pattern.
Helmeted guineafowls are found throughout southern Africa and their lovely black and white feathers, like the porcupine's quill, have become something of an icon of the African bush.
The crested guineafowl (Gutteria pucherani), with its characteristic black head-plume, on the other hand is much less common and hence more difficult to find and photograph.
In many of the Kruger Park camps helmeted guineafowl are habituated to people and are not afraid to come up close, hoping to be fed. But they don't stand still, instead constantly pecking around in swift, jerky moves, so are difficult to keep in focus.
For the above head shot I relied on the fast focusing of my old Canon 1D Mk II in follow-focus (AI Servo) mode, although the EF 70-300mm lens is not ideal for this as it doesn't have the ring-type ultrasonic motor for silent, high speed autofocus found on Canon's telephoto L series lenses.
Camera: Canon EOS 1D Mk II; Lens: Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM; Focal Length: 300mm; Shutter speed: 1/320; Aperture: f/5.6; ISO: 400.

China is a staunch contributor to international peacekeeping, the white paper said on Thursday. According to the white paper titled "The Right to Development: China's
Philosophy, Practice and Contribution," China has todate sent 33,000 military, police and civilian personnel to join UN peacekeeping missions.
Currently there are 2,600-plus Chinese peacekeeping personnel involved in 10 UN peacekeeping operations, making China the most active permanent member of the UN Security Council in terms of supplying peacekeeping personnel, the white paper said.
In order to support and improve peacekeeping operations, China will join the new UN peacekeeping standby mechanism, take the lead in establishing regular peacekeeping police force units, and organize peacekeeping standby forces, the report said.
In the coming five years China will train 2,000 peacekeeping personnel for other countries, launch 10 mine sweeping aid programmes, provide 100 million U.S. dollars of non-reimbursable military aid to the African Union, and allocate part of the China-UN Peace and Development Fund to support UN peacekeeping operations, the white paper said. "China joins other countries in safeguarding international peace, opposes all forms of terrorism, and supports international and regional cooperation in fighting terrorism, in order to create an environment of peace and harmony that promotes development and thereby consolidates peace," the document read.
It went on to note that China in recent years has offered solutions to regional flash points — by involving itself in the Iran nuclear talks, mediating for national reconciliation in South Sudan, and proposing a four-step framework for political settlement of the Syrian issue.
It also facilitated the peace talks between the Afghan government and the Taliban, and promoted consensus on resuming the six-party talks on the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula, the white paper said.

Video: Firefighter proposes to cop girlfriend after 'rescue'
Firefighter uses aerial ladder to 'save' girlfriend from a work meeting before popping the big question
By PoliceOne Staff
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — A Utah firefighter used an aerial ladder to "rescue" his police officer girlfriend from an office meeting — and proposed to her.
Kyle Marson climbed up the ladder and greeted Officer Karlin Wichma at the window to ask the big question. Cheers can be heard in video taken at the scene as Wichma says "yes" to him.
"We actually met on a call," Marson said. "It was a traffic accident, so I was there to do the medical and she was there to write tickets."
The couple has not set a date for the wedding, but Marson said there would not be anything as extravagant as his proposal.

Got chairs with loose
or broken backs?
Need a seat replaced?
Do you have an antique chair
that needs to be restored
to it's former glory?
|This is an example of hand-woven
rattan caning. This is a classic procedure that requires
patience and attention to detail. On this antique
"Federalist" chair, the first step is taking the chair
apart and marking each part to make sure it will be
reglued in the original manner. Stripping and light
sanding are almost required on chairs this far gone. After
gluing, one or two coats of stain are required, followed
by two coats of the Chair Doc's handrubbed Oil Finish.
|This is an example of mechanical
rush. No matter what the original weave design is, it can
be reproduced. Or you may choose sea grass, which give the
chair a completely different look, one with more texture.
|Do you think you have a chair that
isn't worth saving? Pieces like this are hard to find.
Underneath that ghastly blue paint a solid walnut late
19th century boudoir chair emerged.
|This antique ladderback (and its
five brothers) is the perfect example of an old chair that
shines after a complete restoration. The owner chose a
rush seat for all six.
took my annual trip to New York and went to Donald Trump's
yard sale. I saw this imported Plantation chair made from
fruitwood that was crafted in the early 1900's that I told
him I could fix up and make beautiful again. He
says, "Look Chair Doc. I'm a HUGE fan of your work. Your
stuff is UNBELIEVABLE. But look at how this chair is all
broken. It's a LOSER. You know what else I don't
like…rocking chairs. You sit in them, and you go forward,
and then you go back, and you're right back where you
started." So anyhow, Mr. "Art of the Deal" let me buy it
for a song. Originally it was set flat across, but I caned
it with a parabolic bump, all 226 holes of it. Then
Trump saw it and wanted it back, and I told him no,
because it took me longer to do this chair than his first
marriage lasted. Now he's trying to build a wall around my
house. (Click on the right hand one to see a close up…it's
have 6 chairs with double pressbacks that weren't treated
as the classy set that they are. With some TLC and someone
who understands how great these old pieces are, they end
up looking like a millions bucks.
weave on this regal chair was coming apart and needed a
total replacement. They don't make them like this any
more. It sure gave me something to do when we were snowed
in. (Click on either one to see a close up image. The one
on the right is a high-resolution image)
|New back, new seat, repaired arm. Completely restored. The one on the left is what I feel like in the morning sometimes.
|This is a Kennedy rocking chair looks
like it was used as a tackling dummy for the family football
games. The seat and the back in the original are machine
made. When I replaced them, I used the "Exploding
Diamond" pattern. All of the rest of the parts of this
iconic chair were restored to their original beauty. This
chair was originally made by the P&P furniture company
in Troutman, NC, and recommended to a young senator from
Massachusetts who was experiencing back pain in the 1950s.
The rest is history.
|This was a thrift store rescue that
looked like it was recovered in Liberace's pajamas. My
granddaughter put her cell phone down and we were able to
spend a memorable time working on all aspects of chair
restoring. Then, with her cell phone she took this
picture. Not only does she have the picture, she also has
this chair in her bedroom. And I also have a great memory
of this chair, too.
|This antique 7 spindle Federalist
Windsor was very close to being used as firewood. Notice
the back support spindles and the thickness of the seat.
What a great old rocker! Besides caning and reed work,
we'll also fix up chairs that were used to fend off a bear
|Old chairs such as these three are rather easily found. Most of the time they are well made and in good structural shape. Complete restoration is easily accomplished. The diamond pattern in these seats is a classic design that makes this set a real conversation piece.
|Sometimes folks get started on
repairing Grandpa's chair. In time, enthusiasm wanes and
the "bucket of chair" comes to me. Why bother? One good
reason is that it is a mid 1800's Federalist Beehive
Eastlake chair. I think it turned out very pretty - even
|"...in conclusion, your Honor, I
submit to the court that this Courthouse Windsor Chair is
beyond repair."
"I object!" shouts the Chair Doc. "Throwing away this fine piece of craftsmanship would be the real crime. The owners of this chair are guilty of neglect. Let me rehabilitate it." This chair features knuckle arms, a distinguished bow back, and nine spindles, and had a broken corner rush seat. What's the verdict? The results are self-evident.
|Talk about an heirloom. An elderly
woman wanted to know if this could be fixed. It was a gift
on her grandmother's wedding day...from HER grandmother.
This rare oak rocker has triple carved back and front
pieces. Several missing and broken pieces needed to be
replaced, along with a new cane seat. She had a tear in
her eye when she saw it completed, and even old Chairdoc
got a little misty.
|This porch set was crafted by the Old Hickory Furniture Co. of Indiana many years ago and needed new reed. I replaced it with a stagger pattern of rattan. The two chairs, two couches, and a swing are ready for several more years of watching sunsets from the deck. Even though the pieces are bigger, they still require attention to detail to keep them beautiful and worry-free.
may not know much about mending relationship (I love the
missus - She tolerates me and my hobbies), but I can
make this love seat something worth sitting in with your
|Remember the comment about the bear
attack? Well, the bear arrived. Fortunately, I was able to
re-assemble it and make it as good as new.
I don't want to live near them.
|Back in the old days (when I was a
wee lad), ladies would sit in a chair like this, flip
their hair over the back and let it dry by the fireplace.
I then added the missing rockers and replaced the
antique wheelchair came to me and I gave it love and
attention to detail. The back, the seat, and the leg were
caned, as well as re-finishing it back to it's original
beauty. Much better results than you get from most health
care plans.
|I didn't know what was worse: The
broken back or the horrible paint job (jobs?). Both were
fixed and the results are breathtaking...in a good way.
wonder Junior was crying so much! This high chair was in
sad shape. Let's give him one less thing to talk to his
therapist about and make this high chair the envy of his
|Re-caning and refinishing this chair
was just the beginning. Notice the detail on the back.
Part of this was missing, so a mold was created to
reproduce the design of the embellishments to bring this
chair back to its glorious splendor.
|"Bubba Junior, how many times do I
have to tell you NOT to stand on those chairs?!"
Apparently, at least four. Chair Doc can fix the chairs.
You're on your own for Bubba Junior.
|The Green
Man usually shows up as a sculpture of dense
foliage in many cultures around the world. Who knew he
would show up in Boone as a busted up mess? There's a
big chunk out of the front arm support, the seat was
stained, and everything was broken off. It took a lot of
TLC, but we finally made Green Man happy.

except having to tell Mrs. Chair Doc that she can't park
her car in the garage.

From the astonishing imagination of Dash Shaw, visionary author of Bottomless Belly Button, comes a darkly fantastical graphic novel about a small town, a lowlife botanist, and a mysterious plant with strange powers.
It's 2060, and a devastating civil war has left the country in shambles. Professor Paulie Panther–botanist, writer, and hopeless romantic–arrives in the experimental forest town of Boney Borough to research a strange plant growing behind the high school. As he conducts his research, he befriends some of the local residents: Miss Jem, the alluring science teacher; Billy Borg, Boney Borough's star athlete; and Pearl Peach, the rebellious schoolgirl. Paulie soon discovers that the plant, when smoked, imparts telepathic powers. But when he shares this remarkable drug with his new friends, he finds that they're not interested in mind-expansion. In fact, it appears that Paulie's brash individualism might not be at all welcome in a town that prefers conformity to eccentricity.
Nominated for a 2009 Eisner Award and with a bold, innovative design, BodyWorld is a mind-blowing blend of science-fiction, classic high school drama, and futuristic what-if. It is at once funny and fearless–and sure to be the graphic novel event of the year.
…Shaw is as eager to entertain as he is to mess with the parameters of his medium, and he goes out of his way to guide readers through the obstacle course he's laid out…Shaw isn't yet much of a draftsman, but he's a hell of an artist, constructing vivid, uncanny compositions with a spectacular sense of color and space…His sense of pacing is odd but very effective…And he seems to have fully absorbed the visual vocabularies of whole schools of cartooning that barely took notice of one another: old Japanese adventure comics, the art brut Fort Thunder scene, animation storyboards.

The United States is considering accepting a quantity of German nuclear waste for conversion into a proliferation-resistant form.
The U.S. Energy Department on Wednesday said it would weigh the environmental implications of accepting German spent atomic fuel containing highly enriched uranium — something the United States is thought to have never done before, Reuters reported.
Under the proposed plan, a shipment of nearly 2,000 pounds of U.S.-origin uranium would be repatriated from Germany to the Savannah River Site in South Carolina. The department said it is interested in converting the spent fuel into a form that would be more difficult to use in a nuclear weapon.
The Savannah River Site is developing a process for removing the uranium in spent nuclear fuel.
Some opponents of the potential waste transfer argue that Energy has not put forth a detailed plan for how it will dispose of the material. "They're proposing to extract the uranium and reuse it as fuel by a process that has never been done before," said Tom Clements, who heads an anti-nuclear group that monitors the Savannah River Site.
"There's no place to take high-level waste in the U.S.," Clements said. "Uranium that is turned into commercial fuel is not contained inside nuclear waste. It's pure material."
The Savannah River Site presently houses millions of gallons of radioactive nuclear-arms waste held in containers, which state officials say are in danger of leaking into the nearby groundwater.

Question 1: Maureen, Mahti, or Chris. Could you clarify what the author means by 'in trans' in the quote below and how this would suggest that only one replic. apparatus is being affected? Page 16, 20th line from bottom of right colum
"the two ssDNA regions were distributed in trans, suggesting that UV lesions specifically affect only one of the two replication apparatuses (either both leading or both lagging strands)."
Question 2: More clarification needed. How can the authors conclude from the observation that the distribution of internal gaps along replicated duplexes mirrored the length distribution of replicated strands suggests that discontinuities left randomaly behind the fork are not immediately sealed after the passage of the replication fork? Page 18, last line of left colum.
