Ban San Pa Tong, Tambon Inthakhin, Amphoe Mae Taeng, Chiang Mai
Category : Музеи
Attraction Details :
The museum is situated at Ban San Pa Tong, Tambon Inthakhin, Amphoe Mae Taeng, Chiang Mai. It is an archaeological dig site which uncovered ancient Inthakhin kilns of the Mueang Kaen area of Thailand. Because of this, it is very important to Thai history and archaeology, helping to firmly establish the fact the Village of Phan Aek Phan Fuea Mueang Kaen actually existed in the ancient Kingdom of Lanna. Stone inscriptions have been found, dating back to the era of King Mengrai era (1258 – 1311 AD). It is also very important to the archaeology because kilns in good condition as well as beautiful examples of traditional pottery have been found here. Nowhere else in the Upper North have kilns or earthenware been found in such good condition as the ones unearthed here.
From the evidence found, archaeologists determine that these kilns were in use from approximately 1407-1457 AD, and it is assumed that the Ban San Pa Tong area was once a major producer of earthenware for the entire Lanna Kingdom. By the 14th century the art of glazed pottery making was widespread throughout Chiang Mai and the rest of the Lanna Kingdom.
Most of the earthenware found here are of the celadon type – with a light green or greenish-brown glaze – molded from extremely good quality white earth which can be compared with the Sangkhalok wares of Si Satchanalai, and with also specimens produced in Tao Phan Kiln in Chiang Rai Province. The products were uniquely strong and beautiful. Significantly, pre-fired ceramics molded from white earth have also been discovered, a find unduplicated in kiln sites anywhere else in Thailand.
This celadon glazed earthenware made Lanna famous in early times, although originally it traces its origins to China. The green glaze in especially treasured as it mimics jade, which is considered the most auspicious of Chinese colors and materials. Throughout this entire period, native Thai sensitivity, craftsmanship and artistic warmth imbued the pottery with unique flavour and vitality.
A nearby attraction is Mae Ngat Sombun Chon Dam, where visitors can relax at the water's edge and dine surrounded by the natural environment.

I've been keeping track lately of what it is I do most during a full day of remote support. The three top things I deal with are:
- Quickbooks
- Outlook
- Backups
The reason I've been keeping track of this lately is simply because I want to know why Linux hasn't found its way to the desktop more than it has. It makes perfect sense for this open source operating platform to be used in businesses. Why?
- It's free
- It's free from viruses
- It's stable
- It's secure
That short list above should be enough to bring the business clients packing away from Microsoft Windows. Imagine a world where business desktops weren't constantly having to be stroked, burped, and inoculated like the babies they currently are. But alas, it does not. Oh sure, I find Linux being used on many a varied server, but the desktop seems to still be the primary area where Linux is shunned. To find the answer to this, I strongly believe we must head back to my list of most dealt with aspects of support. But even more specifically, we must take on two of those:
- QuickBooks
- Outlook
- Communicate
- Schedule
- Organize
- Manage finances
The above seem to be the most important duties of the business end-user. Granted, not everyone manages finances, but there is no doubting the importance of that task.
Now, how does the Linux desktop fit into this? You might be surprised when I answer -- not well. Why? Let's break these two pieces of software down, with regards to Linux.
The closest thing to Outlook Linux has is Evolution. Evolution isn't a bad piece of software. It's not great, but it isn't horrible. That doesn't cut it. But regardless of how good or bad the software itself is, it simply doesn't work with Exchange. Unfortunately, Exchange isn't going away and if a Linux groupware client wants to make any headway in the world of Business it must integrate with Exchange -- and not with the help of third-party software or serious text-file configuration edits. Linux desperately needs an Outlook-like piece of software that can be placed on a Windows network and be easily configured to work with Exchange. Until that happens, Linux has no chance of working as a desktop client in the world of business.
Some of you might be thinking OWA. Sure, end-users can fire up the web-based OWA Outlook, but most don't want that. Most end-users want a standard client tool that works just like the one being used in the cubicle nearest them.
Evolution could be that client. What would it take? Probably a fork and a lot of work; but it could happen.
I deal with QuickBooks a lot. It shocks me I don't have gray hair because of that simple fact. If you've used the software enough, you know this one thing:
When QuickBooks works, it's great; but when QuickBooks doesn't work, it's a nightmare.
The closest thing to QuickBooks that Linux has is GnuCash -- and that's not really a close competitor. Why? One major reason:
GnuCash is a single-user software.
If GnuCash is EVER going to be taken seriously in the world of business, it must take a QuickBooks approach and become a multi-user piece of software. Should that happen, GnuCash could make some serious inroads to the business desktop. Until then, it will be relegated to personal use.
Make this happen
I am not a developer. I only serve as a mouthpiece to the open source community, thanks to TechRepublic. But I do know a lot of the open source community does read this (and other TechRepublic) blogs. I have the utmost respect for open source developers. They work from passion and heart -- like few other developers can claim. And I would call to action those developers who long to see the Linux platform make serious headway on the business desktop. If you are serious about this idea, then give serious thought to what I've mentioned here. With a solid Outlook-like client (one that could seamlessly and easily communicate to Exchange) and a multi-user accounting solution (along the lines of QuickBooks) Linux could easily start making serious gains on the business desktop. Until then, however, Linux will be relegated to server rooms and developers.

Idk it jus seems weird that its already halfway thru the month and it drops on the 30th and we havent even had one sinlge! BUT dont get me wrong, i actually kinda dig not knowin what im gettin yet, if you think about it, either way you have to wait for the cd, might as well know as little songs as possible so you get that great feeling when you hear great music all the way thru the cd!
cause tech says he writes his life as it happens... and EBAH was his most recent release... Partying, making money, girls.... oh and twitter drama
amerikilla9999 said:
are YOU Tech N9ne? No? Then how would you know what's going on in his life...
Agent Lincoln said:Its about time tech doesn't release any songs....I was getting tired of him basically releasing half the cd or EP and then when u buy it u only have 4-5 songs that are new. I hope this EP is going to be epic because not much has been going on in his life besides his partying and making money....so I hope Tech gets back to the basics. He's a TRUE artist but he writes better when he goes thru things.....I know the new fans are probably gonna have a bitch fit from me saying that but the fans that been there since the beginning know what im talking about. His music paints pictures and helps you cope with different things in your life not just partying and having sex
First I'm going to say i agree, i highly doubt Tech N9ne really writes his life as it happens. He does write music about his life, but his music isn't accurate information pertaining to his real life. His real thoughts and emotions? Yes. But his life? NO. I have to quote a line from 'Dont Tweet This' "Baby I would Hate ta Kick it and then erase ya cause you wanna go to one of those social networks and go state the facts about my Nature"...I do however think that one thing Tech N9ne doesn't exaggerate much of is his Party Life...Think about it, he is on the road doing shows ALL THE TIME and its not like after a show he is going to go lay down in bed and read a book...He probably has an after party nearly every night. He's a single man, doesn't have much of a family life so his only responsibility is to keep the Fans happy and what better way than to party with them?

you crazy if you think tech writes his life as it happens. I know he does it loosly but I highly doubt he really parties that much.

About Me Comfort-oriented, Conservative, High-end shopper, Stylish, Trendy
I didn't realize the buckles were gold. Not a huge fan of the buckle color but still love the boots. They feel a little smaller than other Steve Madden boots in this size. They are a little tight on the top of the foot but they should stretch. I wore them yesterday and they are stylish and fun. My favorite grey boots!
Great boot, but unhappy about the buckle
By Cindy
Loved the look of the boots, and that they fold down! First pair I received, which was a size 8 (what I usually wear in boots), was a full size too big. I then had to return these and order another pair (paying up front for the new pair because they didn't know if they would be in stock if I waited). I received those, and two (2) of the buckles were broken and wouldn't close. I send these back, and the third pair I received were better, but did have one loose buckle, but I like the look of the boot so much that I decided to keep them. Too much work to get a pair of boots, but since I had already started the process, I figured I would just deal with the hassles.
By Court Chris

About Me High-end shopper, Stylish
I am in absolute love with these babies in gray! I have been complemented every single time I've worn them and even been stopped in the middle of a crosswalk to get the details on them! They make a fabulous clicking noise when you walk that makes you impossible to ignore and they have a really cool, effortless appeal. I advise ordering half a size down... Thank you mr. Madden! <3

From the Baltic Sea's famous shipyards in the northern city of Gdansk to the snowy peaks of the Tatra Mountains and Krakow's Old Town, Poland has something for everyone. The central capital, Warsaw, may not be as beautiful as Krakow to the south, but has its own charm, as well as some of Poland's best restaurant and club action. Explore the relative newcomer to the tourist scene, Wroclaw, north-east of Krakow on the Oder River.
After gaining independence in 1918, Poland was involved in World War II from the start and today you can honour the country's distressing, yet inspirational, history in its world-class museums. See where the Solidarity Movement started in northern Gdansk and find the bullet-scarred remains of the Warsaw Uprising. Explore the southern city of Krakow with its Jewish legacy and make sure you try some authentic bagels washed down with a glass of vodka. South of Krakow is the year-long rural playground, the Tatra Mountains.
Most visitors head straight for Wawel Castle and the old Jewish quarter of Kazimierz in Krakow. However, you should also marvel at Warsaw's totally reconstructed, UNESCO-listed Old Town and its excellent Rising Museum. Travel north to hunt for amber on the Baltic Sea shores around the port city of Gdansk. Wroclaw is an engaging city with Gothic towers that is currently undergoing something of a comeback. If you have time, take the road less travelled to explore the brainchild of Stalin, the new town of Nowa Kuta where brutal Socialist architecture merges with wooden churches and new hotels.
Poland has an enormous rural population, and travelling around the country involves passing through many villages. The most beautiful are in the Tatra Mountains in the south where Zakopane lures the crowds for some serious aprs ski. In summer, you can hike, track bears and bison, or fish on lakes and rivers. And although the Baltic Sea might not spring to mind as a number-one vacation spot, be pleasantly surprised as you relax by the crystal waters and beautiful white sandy beaches of Gdansk and Sopot.

Acronis True Image 2014 Still Great, But Loses Luster with Windows 8.*/UEFI Wrinkles

Should I Use LVM?
Posted in I.T. Security and Linux Administration by Eric Hansen on 2013-11-30 21:17:21
LVM is a nice invention when it comes to Linux and the kernel. The easiest way to think of it is RAID without any performance gain or loss. You're able to extend and shrink the LVM partitions like RAID but there's no benefit to it beyond that.
Why would anyone want to use LVM over RAID or no …READ MORE

Cheaply made, not worth the money
By Courtney
from St. Petersburg, Fl
The picture of these boots are exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately, the quality is severely lacking. I own a pair of Troopa boots in tan leather and those are actually leather. These are plastic or "pleather". You can tell that the stitching is purely for show because there was a glue stain on the back seam. I now understand why I could not find these in stores, Steve Madden himself is probably too ashamed to sell them in person.

I bought these boots to replace a pair I had previously owned. I love these boots. They are so comfortable and stylish. I wear them with jean, leggings, and tights. Totally get these before they are no longer available!
Great boot for the price!
By Sue
from Oro Valley, AZ
Love the look of this boot! When I first tried them on though, I almost slipped and fell! Bottom of boot/heal lacks good traction grippers; however this should lessen as they are worn. The shaft circumference is a little larger than I'd like, but it's a great boot for the price!

Product Details
Would you like to update product info or give feedback on images? |
Needless to say, k.d. didn't exactly fit the mold of a "Hee Haw" honey. Visually and vocally, k.d. was a brash breath of fresh Canadian air, a big-boned gal on a mission to teach the big-haired country music queens of the day how to sing it right.
On "Absolute," she does just that. This is a bold album, nearly perfect, that sounds as good today as it did in 1989. Better, even, if you put it up against the dross that passes for country music nowadays.
k.d. holds her own, whether it's Western swing ("Three Days"), lush ballad ("Trail of Broken Hearts") or high octane hybrid ("Big Big Love"). On "Big Boned Gal" and "It's Me," she has great fun celebrating her, shall we say, differentness, with a hearty nudge-nudge, wink-wink.
k.d.'s band, the Reclines, sound like the tightest, smartest, most versatile roadhouse band ever assembled. Enough said.
My favorite track is "Pullin' Back the Reins," one of eight superb songs k.d. wrote for the album with longtime collaborator/co-producer Ben Mink. Silky smooth and absolutely, flat-out gorgeous, a single playing of "Reins" would gentle the wildest mustang.
However. However, I cannot let this particular album go by without comment. Ingenue is a superior album; one of my very favorites. I also prefer Shadowland to this one. But it was lang singing "Pullin' Back the Reigns" on, I believe, Saturday Night Live that made me a fan for life. That voice; those gestures; the power of the performance. It reached through the T.V., grabbed me by the ears, and *forced* me to pay attention. Other than Peter Gabriel, I have never in my life seen a performer of such dynamic power as lang. And to this day, that comes through in that track, at least to me.
The remainder of the album is enjoyable, and often excellent (e.g., "Trial of Broken Hearts"). But I bought this album for that one song, and I have never regretted it.
One of my all-time favorites is "Pulling Back the Reins," a slow ballad that showcases Lang's powerful, overwhelming range at its most poignant. In a similar vein, the throwback "Trail of Broken Hearts" sounds as melancholy as if it came straight from the 1950's. But lest you think that all is mournful and humorless, Lang dives into the clever, upbeat "Big Boned Gal" with a satisfying gusto. ("She was a big boned gal from southern Alberta...you just couldn't call her small...")
Sound is lively and present, with the twangy steel guitar timbre coming across especially well. The recording has a slight resonance that well suits the material and enhances the soaring phrasing that Lang seems to locate so instinctively.
Perhaps not for fans of "traditional" country music, since Lang's influences are all over the map. (This comes out more strongly in her later recordings.) But for those who want to hear the work of one of the country's finest vocalists in any medium, period, don't hesitate.

There are also those who claim that our former -- would insure illegal -- This too is false.
-- -- -- -- the reforms I'm proposing would not apply to those were -- In 2009 congressman Joseph Wilson.
Took a lot of heat for that exchange were in which he challenge President Obama during the president's health care address to congress.
Publicly yelling you lie.
Wilson later apologized for doing that and the president accepted his apology.
And then called publicly.
For -- more civilized discourse in this country.
Get to the point.
Every conversation.
About very important issues that matter of the American people.
Without vitriol without.
Name calling.
The assumption.
Of the worst about it.
Fast forward to today and what some are calling one of the most negative presidential campaigns in history.
And the Obama campaign is now hinting that the president is preparing to launch a new character attack tomorrow night.
When he faces off against governor Romney.
Joining me now.
The man called up for questioning the president's honesty congressman Joseph Wilson he represents the state -- South Carolina.
A district up there Robin sits on both the armed services in foreign affairs committees -- welcome back to the program.
We've been showing it on the you're going to be with you when insurance program for awhile but here's just a sampling of what we've seen from team Obama in the wake of that first presidential debate in Denver just watch -- sample.
Are you saying it governor Romney to -- anchor was just on like yeah I think -- was dishonest absolutely plenty of people pointed out.
What a liar Mitt Romney is and was last night and so if you just the way out.
I have to live their lives about your own plan as well as what the president has been talking about of course you can look good.
Do you think that they are applying a different standard.
Now to governor Romney -- that they demanded of you.
Absolutely -- and indeed.
My son -- identified -- I did it was a spontaneous.
Town hall moment.
What they're saying in this is the highest levels of the Obama campaign.
It took them three days to try to respond.
To the failure of the president's last.
Of the issues for our country and and three days later they came back in and so -- not as spontaneous.
It really was a low blow but I'm confident the American people are gonna look at the positive message.
Governor Romney and he will be elected on your presence.
You know that that after you made your comments part of the reason that you were so criticized because you did that on the floor of the house to they have a defense to this liar liar liar theme.
Because they're not doing that on the floor of the US house.
Well and then indeed on the on the house floor was an appropriate that night.
I had a discussion -- Rahm Emanuel that we were discussing issues and that's what we've been doing.
But I truly I think it's inexcusable for the highest levels of plus.
The statements that are being made in and this is being thought out it's not spontaneous and and it's just not true.
The American people truly do see.
That Mitt Romney has a positive plan to create jobs and our country.
It the Obama campaign it this is not the first time that they've gone to the place of questioning somebody's character I mean is obviously there's been evolving on their part that Mitt -- a -- can't be trusted.
They also earlier in this campaign suggested through the deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter that Mitt Romney could possibly be a -- -- that.
Either Mitt Romney threw his own words and his own signature.
When misrepresenting.
His position that they to the FCC when they felony.
The war he was misrepresenting.
His position that day to the American people to avoid -- responsibility.
For some of the topic -- didn't his investment.
A president -- did not you know dictate to any semi public discipline the Stephanie Cutter or apologize for those comments.
Do you think that there is a double standard here in the way that he he wants to be treated.
And the way he and those who serve him in and represented him treat others.
And and -- you're absolutely correct and in fact we also had Harry Reid.
On say that governor Romney -- not pay taxes.
I mean everything that they're stating our personal attacks which are not true.
And the good news is again I believe that the American people understand.
That to create jobs and our country to have a energy policy that works -- people do know they gasoline cost one dollar and 83 cents when the president came to office.
And I know that that does is those are talking boys I appreciate what you his -- -- -- -- not gonna get here I want to ask you finally whether you think that.
This will have a backlash did you was there -- backlash against you know four that breach of decorum for going to the personal place and do you think that there will be one.
To the to the president's team.
Well people focus that immediately without being threatened a promised.
I apologize one time for interrupting.
And so indeed I received over half a million letters from people across the United States supported.
And none the last election night percentage of victory went from 7% to 10%.
And on that's why don't even have an opponent today because the American people and the people of the second district of South Carolina.
No -- -- settlement they know that I'm passionate about issues.
That I I really want limiting government expanded freedom.
Interstate but I wonder if you think you hit you would have gotten that support if you had not apologize for your.
No I think it's it's very important as you say to apologize.
If horse town hall moment.
That these people are being very contrived.
And and I think it's gonna backfire on them because the American people know better they know the truth now.
Congressman Joseph Wilson thanks for being there.

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") requires the adoption and implementation by the internet service provider of policies related to users who post infringing videos as well as the expeditious removal of infringing videos upon proper notification by the copyright holder. Accordingly, an analysis of YouTube's business policies is pivotal to determining whether it will receive protection under the DMCA. YouTube's Terms of Use spell out its policies with regard to posting unauthorized copyrighted works, repeat infringers, and termination of a user's account.
In its Terms of Use, YouTube expressly states that a subscriber is not allowed to post infringing material. It enunciates a termination policy with regard to repeat infringers and a removal policy with regard to infringing content that will be analyzed to determine whether YouTube complies with the requirements of the DMCA. In addition, an examination will be conducted to determine whether YouTube's actions are consistent with its written policy. How YouTube has implemented its Terms of Use ultimately will be decided on the facts. However, articles and legal publications will shed some light as to whether YouTube has reasonably implemented these policies. Also, the legislative history to the DMCA and case law will help to explain what is expected of the internet service provider with regard to the policies mandated by the DMCA.
In drafting these Terms of Use, it is clear that YouTube is striving to meet the requirements of the DMCA – in fact, its written policy expressly references the DMCA. This is important both in terms of meeting the various DMCA requirements as well as showing the court that it is not Grokster-like, but rather is trying to make a good faith effort in stopping infringing videos from appearing on its website. Weighed against YouTube's purported good faith are Viacom's claims that repeat infringers can recreate new accounts on YouTube in a matter of minutes and that YouTube through its technology prevents copyright holders from identifying all of the infringing material on its website. An analysis of YouTube's Terms of Use and its implementation -- viewed from both parties' perspectives -- with regard to termination and removal policies will be critical in determining whether YouTube receives protection under the DMCA.

"Terrible service"
They where doing construction and it was very load and the service was the worst I ever seen. I was going to stay for a week and left after 1st day. I will never go back to that hotel the people do not know what service means.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"Terrible, lazy staff!"
For the price of this hotel, the only pro of this place lies in its location--- a beachside villa with an ocean view. The staff and facilities leave a lot to be desired. The staff is VERY LAZY. You will often see them just lounging by the pool or chatting in the restaurant. For example, when I asked them to call the tour company associated with the […] hotel to confirm our reservation, they said they cannot do that. Why can't they make a simple call for a tourist client? Especially when many tourist may not have access to dial local numbers. The staff member finally called the tour representative after I ask multiple times and had raise my voice to be finally heard. I would have done it myself but there are no phones in any of the villas. The hotel may be going for the silent retreat kind of ambience but it makes for simple requests, such as extra towels, an absolute pain to request because you have to walk all the way to the lobby to do so. Also, when my family and I went in July 2013, the mini-market was not open yet. It was stocked but not open to customers yet. We couldn't get any snacks or drinks except through the restaurant---- which itself has a boring menu and subpar chefs. Food was often too bland or too oily. Lastly, the entertainment room was unkempt and few of the game machines were broken. Overall, I would definitely NOT recommend this hotel. Try another if you want something beachside.

"Not Good, Look elsewhere"
Me and my fiancé chose this hotel to host a group of 10 for our wedding. There were problems from the moment we arrived. The guards at the gate didn't speak a word of English and insisted that we we didn't have reservations. Eventually, they found a chart that had only 2 names on it. Both of the names were mine. They laughed off their incompetence and […] let us in. They did not give us the room we were paid for. The next day we got the rooms sorted out but each room appeared to have it's own problems. Our room had no hot water and leaked from multiple points in the ceiling when it rained. Other rooms smelled of toilet sewage. The staff repeatedly failed to clean and provide fresh towels. The restaurant's waitress was very inexperienced and not very friendly. The pool bartender was slow and rude. The grounds were nice the view was great once we received the room we paid for. The front desk staff was much more attentive but we were not their to fix their hotel so we ceased to provide feedback after day 3. Their we're just too many problems and we had a wedding to plan. Overall, I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone. The price was high and the experience was poor. Pročitajte višeAutentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"Great for families"
Very nice hotel, great location and amazing beach. We had villa 13B and it was right between the pool and the beach, so very good location. Villa was very spacious and had everything we needed, but could use some upkeep. Showers did not drain very fast, but it was not the end of the world. AC worked really well, but one leaked a little bit of water […] when dialed in to keep room too cool. Bring dishwashing soap to do dishes. Great pool, water temp nice and warm. Swim up bar was fun. Martin and Luis were great at the restaurant and took very good care of us. Highly recommend taking surfing lessons from Water Dreams, the two guys were awesome and kids had a blast learning how to surf. Very nice for families, it was nice to have our own place yet be in a resort set up. Carillo Beach next door (5 min drive) is awesome, but river has crocodiles, be careful. Look up Juan from Las Palmitas bar, about half way on the beach to downtown Samara. Right on the water, he will take you fishing at a great price, help you catch fish, take you snorkel and see dolphins, turtles, etc. Whatever you catch, him and his wife Thelma will cook for you later that day. Watch the sunset and eat fresh fried red snapper! Ask for their rice and shrimp dish, so good! Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
"Good Hotel"
I would recommend this hotel to anyone going to costa rica. When I went, the hotel was under some construction, but is it looking beautiful and right in front of the beach. The food is very delicious with dishes from typical costa rican foodAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
"ok hotel for locals"
The hotel was just ok. I live locally and so it is nice for a 1 or two day stay but if I were traveling from another country I would have been very upset. Upkeep is minimal and the grounds were not very imporessive. There was construction, grass being burnt all over and the music at the pool was only working intermittently. My final day, the pool waterfall […] was off, nor was the jacuzzi functional. I can only assume that this was to save money from not running the pump.

"family of four liked it"
My husband, I, and two teens stayed at the hotel for 4 nights. It was a very busy Easter weekend and the hotel was full. Yes, there were some of the problems that I had read about in earlier reviews but overall I really enjoyed our stay. We knew it was not a five star hotel and just went along with all its funkiness. The pool was great, the hotel right […] on the beach and the town within walking distance if you walked via the beach. We rented bikes and rode on the beach to town, about 10 mins. I would stay here again. The staff was very friendly. I feel like the issues that people have complained about come from the top; maybe a lack of the management not caring but maybe because it is off the beaten track a bit they just don't have a lot of funding to take it up a notch. Overall, a good experience. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
"Lovely beachfront hotel."
The front desk person was not very friendly for the most part. The room lack certain things to qualify as a room with a "kitchen". It did not have the usual utensils we all need to cook with nor an oven. We had to bring our wine to the bartended every time we needed it opened. Of course that incurred a tip and we thought it a bit inconvenient. The property […] and beach itself is nice and we enjoyed our stay over all. I like the privacy of the rooms. You can tell the property is being remodeled. Pročitajte višeAutentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"Unique location, friendly staff"
My daughter and I spent 4 wonderful days at this hotel. Its unique location right on the beach, the outstanding, friendly and helpful staff who went the extra mile to make our stay comfortable and memorable and the pleasant cottage style villas make it an ideal location for any one wanting to get away from it all to either relax on the beach or by the […] pool or take advantage of the many trips that are on offer (kayaking tours, snorkeling, canopy tours via zip lines and much more). If you are expecting a home away from home with fast internet and high def TVs, this is not the place for you. They offer wifi but it is slow and there are no phones or TVs (Bliss!). The surrounding area and beaches are a must see. Our only regret...our stay was too short. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju

"Nice Hotel; Terrible Staff"
The hotel villas were charming in a slightly run down sense. There were iguanas everywhere and each villa had a hammock, which was nice. What was not nice was spending 2 1/2 hours waiting for the room after a 2:30pm arrival and very few guests staying at the hotel. No explanation was given and we were consistently told "just 15 more minutes". Unless […] you get this hotel for around 50 bucks, skip it. There are plenty of other nice places.

"Decent but lacking in charm"
Rooms and grounds are nice, but you could almost fail to notice that you are near the beach because of the layout of the hotel. Service was spotty. Front desk and restaurant staff were fine, but our room wasn't cleaned between our first and second nights. Nothing is within walking distance, so if you don't have a car, you would need to take a 7 minute […] taxi into town for other eating/activity options.

"Quite dicent hotel to stay in the Samara area"
We (a couple with a 12 y.o. daughter) stayed there for 3 nights, on the way from Monteverde to Liberia Airport, at the end of our 9-day vacation in CR. The hotel/resort needs a bit of renovation touch "here and there", but, in general, we liked our stay there and would likely stay there again in we decided to spend a couple of days in the Samara area. […] The resort has several villas (which includes a bedroom with AC and a separate living room with a kitchen). There was no TV - which we appreciated too. There is a big beach, in front of the villas. The beach is not bad, protected by a reef so the waters are pretty calm there. There is even a better beach 2km south, less than 5 min by car.

"A little bit more...."
The hotel is perfectly fine. It features little individual bungalows for each guest. The main or living room has a full kitchen and then there are back bedrooms. The only part that was air-conditioned was the bedroom which made the front room close to unusable most of the time. Some people we met claimed to have "droppings" of some sort in the front […] room but we didn't have this. Everything worked and was reasonably clean, it really just needed to be updated. Small details like stained towels and holes in cabinet doors made it feel not so great at times. The wooden doors were beautiful. Honestly if the owners would just put a little money into the property it would be fantastic and they could probably charge 4x as much but they seem to be happy with mediocrity. The pool looked nice but we didn't go in. The breakfast bar was adequate but the flies and temperature of some of the food items made me kind of squeamish. Again, an extra 10 percent effort would make this place seem so much more comfy. We didn't eat at the restaurant, there were too many fantastic options in town. The beach was a bit of a disappointment for someone from Florida (this has nothing to do with the hotel), however there is a beautiful beach, Playa Carillo, a ten minute walk away. Based on the location and the price we would stay here again but it makes me sad that the owners don't do just a little, teeny bit more to make their quests more comfortable. This hotel is not for those afraid of iguanas. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
"The perfect Costa Rican vacation!"
Hotel Villas Playa Samara is a wonderful place to stay if you are looking for an out of the way true Costa Rican experience. The facilities are excellent. Rooms are clean, open, and bright. Kitchen facilities are great, especially if traveling with a family. The food in the restaurant is excellent. Many local dishes that Chef Jesus has tweaked even […] better. We caught tuna one day and he cleaned, fileted, and prepared an awesome meal for us. (Incredibly the cost was the same as what they normally charge for an al carte entree.) What I really enjoyed most is that this is where Costa Ricans come for vacation. It really gives you a feel for the country and its people to be able to visit with them at the beach or by the pool. If you want an "americanized" tourist hotel with little or no contact with the local culture and people this may not be for you. There is easy access to Playa de Samara and Playa de Carrillo, the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica. (Playa de Carrillo is around the corner and is an easy walk or short drive/taxi ride.) Water sports are plentiful and rentals available for all types. Especially helpful was Catherine who is in charge of the "concierge" desk. She helped us plan some tours at the local national parks etc. I have to say she went out of her way to make our stay better. Thank you Catherine! Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
On our first night we were invaded by 200+ large ants with wings. We spent over an hour killing them. Throughout the night we would be woken by surviving ants landing on our bed. Ugh! Even though we told the hotel staff, the next night we had a similar experience with the flying ants (although not as many). Also, these appear to be owner units with […] uneven maintenance and interior amenities. Pročitajte višeAutentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"A serious rip off"
We were put in one room one night and then changed to another the next day for no reason. Neither room was in good shape. The same thing happened to our friends. The bed was broken as well as the ceiling fan and several windows. They never made any attempt to help us. The shower didn't drain well. More of a foot bath. The food was a joke. Think of a […] school lunch line. It was a buffet at every mesl. The food didn't change much from day to day. It was not too good. Not bad, just not of a resort caliber. School lunch line. The beach was also a let down. It would get quite z few dead fish on it and was kind of silty/muddy looking. The beach is a lot nicer if you walk about 1.5 miles to the town. I tried relaxing at the pool but the sound of grinders, saws, and other power equipment ruined the peace. This place is very poorly run and needs some serious repairs. Way over priced.

"I hate having to wear those stupid wristbands!"
I thought the staff were more interested in selling their day excursions than focusing on me as a guest. We were promised one rate by Expedia when we booked, and the prices just seemed to go higher the longer we stayed. The rooms need upgrading and the office is being renovated (02/2012), so I suppose there'll be improvement in the future. As with other […] reviews, the store is rarely open when advertised. Do yourself a favor and travel a little south to Playa Carrillo, an almost deserted beach just down the road, and experience a superior setting. BTW, an evening climb up the rock outcropping between Samara and Carrillo will reveal stunning monkeys playfully eating in the tops of the trees. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju

"Peace and quiet"
This hotel was a last minute booking due to a screw up in my reservations at the Hilton. Over all the hotel is nice if you are looking for peace and quiet. It is not an all inclusive so you pay for everything. They were doing maintenance and adding a new section to the dining area while we were there. Unfortunately they worked on it while the dining […] service was going on. It has a pool where you can sit and drink. The menu at the restuarant does not change. For those who like to watch t.v. and clock watch, this isn't for you. There are no t.v or clocks in the room. Only the bedroom has AC. It is perfect for those who want to get away from the modern world. It has an excellent view with lots of wildlife. You are close enough to town to drive in and eat at the local establishments which are great by the way. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. I loved laying in the hammock reading my book. The villas are slightly worn down but are still in good shape. It was the little things like the curtains not repaired or the french doors not properly latching that bothered me. It has a kitchen so those who want to cook are able to. It has a little convience store on the property. It does have some equipment that you can rent on the property such as kayaks. They do have tours you can take that work with the hotel. Over all it is a nice place to stay at if you are not looking for all the creature comforts of home. The prices seem competitive to the other hotels-these are villas. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju

"Beautiful hotel but terrible service"
Hotel Playa Samara is very nice, quiet and peaceful. The hotel is made by individual bungalows, which gives an appreciated privacy. The bungalows and rooms are nice and clean. The rooms are a little bit basic but comfortable. And the huge pool in the middle of the property gives to the hotel a Resort look and ambiance. The only problem at this hotel […] is the staff. Every time we were going to the restaurant and bar, we had the feeling to disturb the employees. And most of the time we were waiting at least 10 to 15 minutes before being served. Sometimes we even had to argue to receive our breakfast because they were complaining we were late, when we were waiting but they just never came to serve us. That was enough painful for us to not go back, even if the hotel is physically perfect. Pročitajte višeAutentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju

We got a bungalow that was right on the beach, which was fantastic. Food was ok but not great. Lovely beach and great for swimming. Horseback riding on the the beach a must do. On checking out was billed for items that we did not purchase at the convenient store and for breakfast which was supposed to be included int he rate we booked.

"Great honeymoon here"
My husband and I really enjoyed this hotel. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful and the hotel views and grounds were some of the nicest we've visited in Costa Rica. Our villa was clean and had a decently-stocked kitchen. The hotel is a little ways from Samara so we had to get cabs at night to go into town for dinner or parties. However, the […] cab fare is not expensive ($6) and people at restaurants and bars were happy to call cabs for us to get back to the hotel. The only other small issue was that the curtains in our room were difficult to close but otherwise the villa was as we expected or better. We definitely recommend the hotel and hope to return!

"Hotel Villas Playa Samara"
The Hotel Villas Playa Samara is a very nice hotel right on the beach - which is perfect for sunbathing, etc. It is just down the street (but not walking distance) from Samara town. I had read some reviews that the service was not great - and was not sure what that meant. My only complaints would be that checkout is 10 am (if you don't read the fine […] print, you get charged $50/hour for late checkout) and for us, breakfast was not included. Possibly because it was off-season, they let us have late checkout for free, and were very accomodating. The setting was lovely, and it was a very nice place to stay.

"Hotel Samara Resort"
The people, the service, the location, activities, the grounds and villas was all outstanding. We got there late night and got a villa that was not quite to our liking, but the folks at the reception had no issues checking us into a "on the beach" really nice villa since we were staying 3 nights. Because the location of the resort is private and the […] farthest away from the more populated beaches, one should make sure one arrives to it during the day. The Signage is really poor and our GPS had broken down, and trying to follow the directions people gave for the location of the hotel or following the map was extremely frustrating since we arrived there initially in the night. But, once there, and and having driven out and around the next morning made it okay for us to get around even at night time. Beautiful beaches, activities and fresh mangos, coconuts, etc, which the hotel staff was so readily willing to bring down from the trees for us to consume each day of our stay there. Loved it!

If you are not going for the 4 star experience and care more about the beach and a safe place to be then this is a fine place […] in the Samara area. We looked around at some other places and Hotel Villas had the best pool and location. The kitchen had every thing we needed and the little on site store was also well stocked enough to make use of our kitchen.

The main disappointment was the hotel was 3km from town, not a walkable road and when high tide was in you were also cut off from walking the beach to town.

Terratur Possessions/Barghest (2012)
"My god why have I forsaken me"
The first line from "Holy Metamorphosis" is one that makes me shiver - fingernails cut by my own teeth, the neck stiffens by the thought of loosing myself within a maze of intricate solutions on how to end... ...life itself. How can you live a worthy life when you have forsaken yourself?
"yours is yours and mine are mine"
The closing line of "Stellar Masturbation" is one that make me think that there's more to life than what others think. I may forsake myself, yes, but to focus on me, myself and I is the only solution when it comes to live a life of worth. You do what you do and leave me alone, for I will haunt you, taunt you and reveal all my anger at you if you do not that which is yours, and leave me alone to do mine.
"I had a dream which was not all a dream"
The opening line of the close to 17 minutes epic broadcasts in fact the fulfilment on my own dream. I have often returned to albums that are spread over two CDs, such as Ayreon with the big concept albums, The Flower Kings & Transatlantic along with lengthy albums with playing time clocking in at more than an hour. Deathspell Omega's "Si Monumentum Requires, Circumspice" is the prime example. Sticking to black metal, which is the art performed by Dødsengel, there are few albums that pass the hour mark. Most albums are in between 40 and 50 minutes I guess. I'm sure that's what artists think the listeners are able to digest. And when I listen to albums such as "The Red Jewel", "Panzer Division Marduk", "Ordo Ad Chao", "Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk", "The Lawless Darkness" and my second favourite album "Fas - Ite, Maledicti, in Ignem Aeternum" I love them for what they are, but sometimes I think "what if...?". What if Watain's monumental "The Lawless Darkness" were twice as long? Or "Panzer Division Marduk" five times the length?
Theirs is theirs and Dødsengel's is Dødsengel's. 150 minutes of Norwegian black metal like you have never heard before. Never! These 22 tracks make "Imperator" a journey to and through a living Hell. Each track is different from the former and the next, except for the opener and the closer. "XXV" and "XXV" opens and closes the circle. The sound is unmistakably Norwegian. But the music? You have fast parts, loads of mid-paced and slow parts and there are a couple of interludes, if one can call the two minutes acoustic piece "Pneuma: Sidpa Bardo" an interlude. But have you ever heard anything like "Darkness", the mentioned 16.45 minutes epic? The opening is gloomy and the way the band evolves the music from there on is proof of masterminds in work. The guitars are almost out of tune for a few minutes, making the whole thing so eerie that I think it's time to close down the office, lit the candle and remain in the world of Dødsengel for the rest of my life. It's like a dream, but it is not all a dream.
"Imperator" is a concept album, as far as I understand. There are surprises all over the album, such as the opening of "The Serpent's Head". I'm dead sure I've heard that melody before, but never in such a disturbing environment. They close the track "Holy Metamorphosis" with repetitions of the sentence "Let There Be Light!". Well, there is no light. The is no fucking light. "Imperator" is a dead end. It is the end of all joy. And it should be listened from beginning to end, in one take. 150 minutes, yes. But goddamn, I ensure that it is worth it and that you will be rewarded. If you don't live alone, get rid of the better half, send your kids to the caretaker and close the curtains.
Begin. End.
And then, repeat. If you have any strength left. I, for one, do not manage more than one listen a day, because this album drains me of all joy. And when it is time for the seventh listen, I'll advice you to rip this onto MP3, bring your high quality headphones, go into the woods and find yourself a solemn place where you sit down and listen for two and a half hours. I'm sure it will talk to you. You will notice the effects and elements that are there in most tracks, elements that reveal themselves only after several journeys.
The elements that lift the album from being a very, very good one to an out-of-this-world journey are the vocals. Varied, haunting, desperate, angry, grim, sad, torturous, mighty, introvert, arrogant and so well crafted. There are even some female vocals, but don't expect the soprano, hah! Listen, weep and cry out in whatever joy you may have left. This is black metal supreme from beginning to end.
I know why I did forsake me. I didn't think there was room left for more Norwegian black metal magic that could surpass legends of old. But Dødsengel have now, in 2012, released an album that will be a part of me for the rest of my life. It is a dream come true. It's is blackness. Its loss of hope is omnipotent. But fear not, because in the beginning it feels like yours is not yours. But eventually you will become one with the creation and you will sit there, in the woods, thinking that Dødsengel's "Imperator" is mine, and mine are mine!
