A great place along the famous Copacabana Beach to eat, enjoy a cocktail, and people watch... moderately priced for the area.
This is one of the restaurants close to copacabana beach, It is very well located and has a cold good chopp beer. That's all. The menu has too many options, which shows a chef that doesn't have a speciality. And that's exactly it. The food is mediocre, not taste nor well done. If you are hungry, it is an option,...
Touristic restaurant, food is not top, nevertheless position is fantastic, in front of the sea. Caipirinha is good though!
The place is well located, has good food (international), but is expensive as all other restaurants nearby that area.
Every block has an outside beach front restaurant. Most serve fish salads pizza etc. this is one of them. Ok to grab an outside lunch
We had a most delicious seafood platter: great service, great food. Price was reasonable: would for sure return!
Most sea front places can be a tourist trap and a rip off - that applies everywhere in the world, so why should Copacabana be anything different? This is a good place for a sea facing drink, but to eat? Our only excuse for doing this is because we were staying at the Marriott and it was raining, so this...
Bad staff, disgusting food! Every type of food just fake! Nothing fresh! Waste of money! There are much more better restaurants near.
The food was expensive and definetly not worth it. The menu is not explicit enough...so you think you are ordering something but you get the opposite...you tell the waiter that its not what you ordered..he looks at you and sees you are not eating and he just leaves and brings you the bill!!! Awfullll..... p.s never book anything using lastminute.fr!
Stopped here as it was convenient for our hotel. We both had the steak which was cooked OK but the so called red wine sauce had come out of a packet and hadn't been cooked through so tasted very floury. Maybe it would be best to order your steak plain as then you won't be disappointed.

Elder David A. Bednar of the Quorum of the Twelve addressed the spirit of revelation and its patterns.
"As you appropriately seek for and apply unto the spirit of revelation, I promise you will 'walk in the light of the Lord,' he said. "Sometimes the spirit of revelation will operate immediately and intensely, other times subtly and gradually, and often so delicately you may not even consciously recognize it.
"But regardless of the pattern whereby this blessing is received, the light it provides will illuminate and enlarge your soul, enlighten your understanding and direct and protect you and your family."
Sharing tender experiences with and memories of his late wife, Jeanene, Elder Richard G. Scott of the Quorum of the Twelve called marriage and family "two of the vital pillars" that sustain God's plan of happiness.
"Jeanene's kindness taught me so many valuable things. I was so immature, and she was so disciplined and so spiritual," he said. "Marriage provides an ideal setting for overcoming any tendency to be selfish or self-centered. I think one of the reasons that we are counseled to get married early in life is to avoid developing inappropriate character traits that are hard to change.
"I feel sorry for any man who hasn't yet made that choice to seek an eternal companion, and my heart weeps for the sisters who haven't had the opportunity to marry. Some of you may feel lonely and unappreciated and cannot see how it will be possible for you to have the blessings of marriage and children of your own family. … Have faith in those promises and live worthy of them so that in his time the Lord can make them come true in your life. With certainty, you will receive every promised blessing for which you are worth."
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve underscored the teaching provided in general conference, calling the speakers "mortal messengers with angelic messages."
"If we teach by the spirit and you listen by the spirit, some one of us will touch on your circumstance, sending a personal prophetic epistle directly to you," he said. "Brothers and sisters, in general conference we offer our testimonies in conjunction with other testimonies that will come, because one way or another God will have his voice heard."
Speaking of one's willingness to accept and even seek correction, Elder D. Todd Christofferson of the Quorum of the Twelve said divine chastening has at least three purposes — to persuade to repent, to refine and sanctify, and to redirect life's course to what God knows as a better path.
"Eventually, much of our chastening should come from within — we should become self-correcting," he said, saluting the late Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin and his self-analysis in every assignment task. "In his desire to please God, he resolved to learn what he could have done better, and then he diligently applied each lesson learned."
In his conference-concluding address, President Monson expressed his love for the Savior, mindful of the upcoming Easter commemorations.
"I believe that none of us can conceive the full import of what Christ did for us in Gethsemane, but I am grateful every day of my life for his atoning sacrifice in our behalf," he said. "He could have turned back. But he did not. He passed beneath all things that he might save all things. In doing so, he gave us life beyond this mortal existence."

Celebrated British composer Michael Nyman has composed a Hillsborough memorial symphony.
The hour-long Symphony No 11: Memorial is based on music that Nyman was recording on the afternoon of the Hillsborough tragedy 25 years ago.
It will be performed by the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in the city's Anglican Cathedral tonight.
Nyman said he hopes the work will make "a small but significant contribution to the healing process still necessary for the families of the lost fans.
Nyman composed the score for the film 'The Piano' starring Holly Hunter and Harvey Keitel.
Police were called after the plane was stuck at Manchester Airport for hours because of a light covering of snow, according to passengers.

Press release from Business Wire
Unum appoints McGarry to oversee closed block of business

 O'Donnell named CEO of Unum UK

Monday, September 17, 2012
Unum appoints McGarry to oversee closed block of business09:00 EDT Monday, September 17, 2012 CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (Business Wire) -- Unum Group (NYSE:UNM) today announced that Jack McGarry, who has served as CEO of Unum UK since July 2010, will return to the U.S. to manage the company's closed block of business. Peter O'Donnell, senior vice president and chief financial officer of Unum UK, has been named to replace McGarry as president and CEO of that unit. "These leadership changes affect two very important areas of our company," said Thomas R. Watjen, president and CEO of Unum Group. "Our closed block now represents over 25 percent of our capital, and I'm confident that Jack's significant financial and operational expertise will help us improve the performance of this business." Unum's closed block includes individual disability policies issued prior to the mid-1990s and all of the company's long-term care business. Unum discontinued writing individual long-term care policies in 2009 and new group long-term care policies earlier this year. As of June 30, 2012, this business segment had assets of more than $32 billion. Peter O'Donnell, who succeeds McGarry as president and CEO of Unum UK, joined the company in June 2010 as its chief financial officer. "Peter has been a tremendous addition to our leadership team, with a proven track record of success both at Unum UK and within the financial services industry," added Watjen. "I'm confident he will be able to help us capitalize on our unique position in the U.K. market." Prior to joining Unum UK, O'Donnell spent a number of years in senior finance roles at RSA plc and Aviva plc and was director, Group Finance, for Prudential plc. He has a bachelor of commerce degree from University College Dublin. With O'Donnell's promotion, Deputy CFO Stephen Harry becomes CFO of Unum UK. Both O'Donnell and Harry's appointments are subject to formal approval by the U.K. Financial Services Authority. ABOUT UNUM GROUP Unum Group (www.unum.com) is a leading provider of financial protection benefits in the United States and the United Kingdom. Unum's portfolio includes disability, life, accident and critical illness coverage, which help protect millions of working people and their families in the event of an illness or injury. The company reported revenues of $10.3 billion in 2011, and its subsidiaries – Unum US, Colonial Life and Unum UK – provided more than $6 billion in benefits last year.

"I wanted to get a gold charm that represented the dedication and love my son had for being a member of his college's marching band. This was for his 18th birthday. Since his college is a very well known school I thought it would be easy to find that charm. It wasn't I looked all over the internet and called my local jeweler. Couldn't find what I wanted anywhere. I luckily found your website. I called and spoke to Danny. This was to be a "custom" charm. We spoke and he gave me ideas that I never even thought of I was thrilled that finally I was able to get my son the charm I wanted too. I received the charm and it was beautiful, everything I expected and more. We gave my son the charm this weekend when we visited his school for Parent Weekend. He now owns something that no one else does and his fellow band mates/friends have given him numerous compliments. Thank you Danny and the others who helped make my idea a reality It was a pleasure and I would not hesitate to order from your company again."

"The customer service for this company is outstanding! UPS lost/misdelivered 2 heart lockets that I ordered for xmas. UPS wouldn't help me at all. I called Pictures on Gold's support and within 2 days, I had the 2 lockets in my hands. I will absolutely do business with this company again.
Our 15 yr old dog passed away and my daughter has taken it very hard. She keeps a small stuffed animal in her backpack for when she gets sad. Now she will always have this special momento that she can wear and keep close to her heart."
-- R. Allan
"I absolutely love this service. Received a beautiful picture locket for Mom and a unique ring for me. Can't beat it! I definitely recommend and will use it again. Thanks!"
-- Julie
"I received the locket watch I ordered, and instantly loved it. Unfortunately, there was a problem with the way it was engraved. When I called to state the problem, I was treated with extreme respect. Instead of the men sounding annoyed or uncaring, both of them were apologetic, stating they would be happy to re-do it. When I told Danny that I hated to part with it, I was told that I could wear it until I was ready to return it, and they would take care of the problem whenever I was ready. When I did get it back, it was absolutely PERFECT. It makes me feel so good every time I open the locket and get to see the engraved words and photo. It is beautiful. I have every intention of ordering from them again."
-- Karen
"I want to state I had a problem with one of the pieces I placed in an order with the company and with the excellent help of Dan the problem was fixed in no time at all.
I will keep ordering from Picturesongold and will keep referring my friends as well."
-- Tony
I just received my ring today and it is absolutely beautiful! It fits perfectly and I am so very pleased and proud to wear it. Thank you for carrying such a lovely piece of jewelry.

"My locket came today, and it is absolutely GORGEOUS It was exactly what I wanted and I had been looking for over a year. The locket is amazing and the picture looks incredible. I can not wait to order more pieces for my sisters and grandchildren. Your work is AMAZING"
-- Julia
"Being a 61-year old who is somewhat cyber-"phobic", I can't tell you how easy and helpful your website is. Great job!"
-- Peggy H.
"The England Charm arrived today and it is exactly as I had hoped. Thank you very much, and I will recommend your company to anyone."
-- Lois
"I cannot say enough how absolutely 100% thrilled I am with my purchase! I received it in less than 2 days, and the quality is beyond my expectations. I will recommend you to everyone I know. Thank you so very much for the gorgeous jewelry (the lasered pictures amaze me!) and for the best service I have ever experienced!"

What a fun packed show right in time to get you and the little ones into the Holiday spirit. My kids age 4 and 6 loved it. They laughed and sang and very much enjoyed the show. The cast were magnificent and very entertaining. The adult comdedy was really enjoyable with great comedic timing. Everyone will love this show. If you plan on going on a Friday night just make sure to give yourself enough time to drive in rush hour traffic so you and the kids don't feel rushed.

I have been working at Boston Scientific
you might be interested to try this company as an intern, but this is it. You can get familiar with medical devices, firmware and software development, testing and releases. But this is it.
Right now there is no particular reason you'd like to join this company. Layoffs are happening twice a year, sometimes they are silent - you can only find out about it when somebody from coworkers will tell you. The management is self-centric and incompetent.
Respect the engineers.

Auto makers look to Asean market
Publication Date : 27-03-2013
While this year's Bangkok International Motor Show could set a new sales record of 60,000 orders, major auto-makers are not only looking at the Thai market but also all of Asean.
"Asean is such an important growth opportunity for Ford within our Asia-Pacific region," Alan Mulally, president and chief executive officer of Ford Motor Company, said yesterday.
"Our plan and successful product-led transformation is helping to deliver even more segment-leading vehicles, like the all-new EcoSport."
Major auto companies are launching models for Thailand as well as other Asean markets such as Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines.
Besides the Ford EcoSport, the Toyota Vios, Chevrolet Spin, Honda Accord and Nissan Pulsar are among the models offered in this region.
The EcoSport is an example of Ford's strategy to enhance its momentum by entering even more volume segments across the region.
Ford expects 60-70 per cent of its sales growth globally this decade to come from Asia and the Pacific, with Asean playing a key role.
The large number of new products is expected to help stimulate the Thai market, despite predictions of a slight decline from last year's record 1.4 million units.
"We must admit that last year was a golden year for the Thai auto industry," said Prachin Eamlumnow, the organiser of the Bangkok Motor Show. "This is another chapter in Thailand's automotive history, and it stems from various positive factors including the government's first-car-buyer scheme.
"There were effects carried over from the flood in late 2011, which increased demand for new vehicles, especially pickup trucks.
"Automobile companies in Thailand launched a large number of new models including eco-cars, small passenger cars and pickup trucks that were in the government's projects. They enabled the industry to achieve record sales last year, and into this year," he said.
In the luxury car segment, Mercedes-Benz is expected to win customers for the new E-Class, while BMW is highlighting the 3 Series hybrid. Lexus is launching its IS luxury compact, which is also available as a hybrid.
And at the top of the spectrum is the Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended Wheelbase, priced at a whopping 42.5 million baht (US1.4 million).
Concept vehicles on display include the Mitsubishi GR-HEV and G4, Mercedes-Benz CLA, Nissan Ellure and Toyota FUN Vii and FCV-R.
The event goes until April 7 at Muang Thong Thani.
"Although in 2013 the market may not be as strong as last year, we believe that the Thai auto industry will move ahead, since auto companies have been working hard since the start of the year with new-model launches," Prachin said.
"Competition in the eco-car market remains strong. Mitsubishi will exhibit the G4 eco-car concept at the motor show, while Toyota's eco-car is expected to be introduced later this year."
The Vios will attract hordes of customers because of its high popularity, he said.
A total of 36 carmakers are taking part in the event, along with seven motorcycle and 230 accessories companies.

Man and Beast: 'Visiting Your Troops of Cattle'
Erica Fudge and Richard Thomas explore relationships between people and domestic animals in early modern England and how new types of archaeological evidence are shedding fresh light on one of the most important aspects of life in this period.
In early modern England one relationship was vital to the economic and dietary wellbeing of most families: that between people and their animals. Indeed local and national economic stability was reliant on the presence of horses, cows, sheep, pigs and poultry. This dependence can be measured in terms of the need for a large amount of meat in the diet of those who worked the land; the demand for raw materials, such as hides, bones and fats, for crafts and industry; the importance of animal manure to the fertility of the soil; and the necessary power of animals to move goods and support agriculture through the pulling of equipment, such as ploughs and harrows.
The period 1500-1700 also marks a watershed in the nature of farming in England. It witnessed a decline in the number of smallholdings, the emergence of large farms and a consequent growth in herd size, as well as increasing specialisation and commercialisation of husbandry. Arguably it is over this time that the system of intensive agriculture emerged that is familiar in much of the West today. For this reason the study of animal care has a particular resonance.
However, while economic and agricultural historians have explored the general shifts in human-livestock husbandry, the close connections between humans and animals have received almost no attention. One area where it is possible to gain an insight into such relationships is in the matter of animal health care and wellbeing. The moments when the relationship shifts from the normal to the fraught – such as when a healthy animal ceases to be able to fulfil its role in the domestic economy – provide particular insight into people's attitudes to their beasts. Yet in the period of early modern agriculture, when many of those working with animals did not, or could not, document their practices, the study of livestock care requires an imaginative approach to research to build the fullest possible picture. As we shall see here different types of evidence – books, wills and bones – offer different clues about human/animal relationships. Husbandry manuals by their nature are addressed to a general readership and provide an idea of a wide-ranging, indirect engagement with animals; wills reveal people's direct relationships with specific animals; while bone remains unearthed during archaeological excavations are evidence of the animals themselves. These can reveal both general trends and provide insight into the lives of individual beasts.
If any sheep be scabbed
The historian Louise Hill Curth has shown how early modern animal health care regimes can be found in a range of texts: in almanacs, household manuals and specialist works. Many of the techniques outlined in these are likely to be products of an oral culture in which knowledge was passed on through practice, eventually finding its way into print. For example, John Crawshey, author of The Countrymans Instructor (1636), emphasises that 'it is not scholarship that brought me to the knowledge of what I profess', but 'my own experience' and the 'testimony of you my good friends'. Other ideas in the period were drawn from rediscovered classical scholarship on agriculture, including works by Columella and Virgil.
Hands-on experience plays a key role in these early printed texts, as evident in John Fitzherbert's 1523 Boke of Husbandry, in which he offers a range of practical advice, including to the sheep farmer. He begins by outlining how to spot a problem: 'If any sheep be scabbed, the shepherd may perceive it by the biting, rubbing, or scratching with his horn, and most commonly the wool will rise, and be thin or bare in that place.' The remedy Fitzherbert offers for such scabs is 'tar', a substance made of oil and goose or capon grease, which should be rubbed onto the scab. An alternative, cheaper remedy is given to 'salve poor men's sheep'. This is made from a mixture of easily available plants – 'broom, crops, leaves, blossoms' – which should be chopped up, boiled in 20 gallons of water and then added to 2lbs of 'sheep suet molten ... a bottle of old piss, and as much brine made with salt'. This should then be strained through a cloth. Fitzherbert adds: 'If your sheep be new clipped, make [the salve] luke-warm, and then wash your sheep therewith'. The mixture would also, apparently, rid the sheep of lice and cure temporary blindness.
Fitzherbert also offers advice on plants that are poisonous, pastures that are bad for animal health and on 'hunger-rot ... the worst rot that can be'. The specificity and detail of his advice is clear, but this seems to get lost in some of the later animal manuals in which the reader is expected to recognise symptoms of disease and use a book simply to look up a cure. So in The first Book of Cattell (1596) Leonard Mascall lists a number of reasons for 'swelling' in cows: because of 'abundance of blood', the eating of a 'Tine-worm' and 'costiveness' (constipation). For each cause a different cure is recommended: the first begins with chasing the cow up and down and then pricking its tongue; the second involves feeding the animal urine mixed with salt; the last also suggests chasing the animal up and down, which if that fails to bring about a bowel movement should be followed by manual excavation of the dung. No explanation is given as to how to determine the cause of the swelling or to differentiate the symptoms in order to administer the right cure. It seems that this early advice is addressed to those with existing knowledge, information that is frequently left unstated.
These books represent the beginnings of a printed systematisation of animal health care. But who they were aimed at, when a majority of those who worked with beasts remained illiterate, is unclear: there was no recognised animal care profession until the late 18th century, when the first veterinary colleges were established across Europe. John Crawshey's 'good friends' most probably passed on their knowledge verbally, but whether they could read their own words in print we cannot know.
My red pied bullock
If the issue of literacy is a problem in terms of the readership of the healthcare manuals it is less so when wills are considered, as such documents were often written by a scribe on behalf of the testator. When mentioned in wills animals are present, of course, as valuable goods and are often represented in the simplest terms, merely revealing that they were owned by the testator: 'my two cows', 'my six sheep' etc. Sometimes a little more description is included. For example wills dating from the early 17th century in the Essex Record Office contain references to 'my bay nag', 'my red bullock', 'my black cow', 'one little hog', 'my red pied bullock with a star in the forehead'.
Occasionally more detail is given revealing a much stronger sense of the relationship between a testator and his animals. Thus the 1620 will of the yeoman Christopher Fuller from West Bergholt in Essex includes the following bequests:
Item I give unto Christopher Fuller my oldest son all my team of horses with my cart, wheels, plough and chains, horse harnesses both for cart and plough and cart ropes, Item I give more unto him my branded cow, my little black northern cow and my cow called Shaler, one heifer of a year old one weanell calf, my best sow with her pigs and two shots [young pigs] ... I give unto William Fuller my younger son my old great branded cow, 2 year-old steers, one heifer of a year old, two weanell calves, a sow with pigs and two shots ... I give unto Alice my daughter my great black northern cow and one heifer that came of my little northern cow, one weanell cow calf.
The clarity of the descriptions of more than 25 animals in Fuller's will reveals two things: his attentiveness to his livestock and his desire to ensure that specific animals are given to the right people. These animals are commodities but they are also individualised. Both their economic value and the personal relationships between humans and animals would have encouraged owners to attend to their physical care. This is underscored, perhaps, in Leonard Mascall's advice: 'Ye must often oversee and visit your troops of cattle, against any infirmity, that may daily hap.' The ability to spot a problem with an animal early on, such as lameness or a stoop, could be a matter of life or death. As William Poole noted in 1650 it was especially necessary 'for the poorer sort of people, who having but one beast, the loss thereof to them, is more than the loss of many to a rich man'.
The age of animals might indicate a long working life but also that they had been well cared for. Thus in 1632 when the widow Johan Ward of Earls Colne in Essex left her grandson Francis 'two young sheep and an old sheep with two lambs', she was also testifying to successful management of her animals. In this period sheep were valued for their wool rather than their meat and so could live for eight years or more. Death before this time was a result of lack of care. In this context the appearance of a cough would occasion a swift response.
The fear of losing an animal and the labour that might be taken to avoid it is hinted at in the 1625 will of Roger Hull of Great Maplestead. Hull bequeathed two named horses – Clubb and Jack – a bullock, 'my northern cow', 'my old cow' and, finally, 'my cow with the one eye'. Mascall cautioned that the 'eye of a beast is tender and is a principal member, and soon may be hurt diverse ways'. These might include by 'pinkeye', toxin poisoning, vitamin A deficiency or by accident. Whatever the cause it is certain that Roger Hull's one-eyed cow must have received careful attention either throughout its life or in response to a particular injury. The animal's presence in the will marks its value to Hull and so is itself a record of its care.
Cover him well with earth
Animal bones are among the most common archaeological finds and their study can help explain the many ways in which people and animals interacted in the past. Most excavated bones represent the rubbish left behind from butchery and food consumption (the bulk of the meat consumed in the early modern period came from cattle, sheep and to a lesser extent pigs and poultry). But careful analysis can also shed light on husbandry regimes, disease and injury.
However the study of pathology in dry bone specimens is not easy, as many diseases and injuries only affect soft tissues so do not leave a trace. With the exception of acute trauma, such as bone breakage, it is usually only long-standing (chronic) diseases and injuries that affect the skeleton, because in cases where the animal's immune system overcomes the disease or the animal dies fairly rapidly the skeleton is unaffected. Additionally, animal bones found on archaeological sites are typically fragmentary (partly because they often represent butchered remains), making it almost impossible to determine whether bones come from the same animal. This is a problem for establishing facts about health because the diagnosis of disease relies not only upon the appearance of pathologies, but also upon their location in the body. Despite these difficulties certain diseases and injuries appear with some regularity in bones and these provide a direct insight into the ways in which people were managing their animals. For example, in many regions of England cattle provided the primary source of traction power. Because an ox did not evolve to pull agricultural equipment such activities would place stress on its skeleton, which would result in bone alterations visible to archaeologists. Analysis of cattle foot-bones at some sites shows a decline of stress indicators, which may reflect a decrease in their use for traction and the growing tendency to slaughter such animals at an earlier age for meat. Yet such remains could also indicate a simultaneous improvement in the healthcare of traction animals.
Occasionally we find the remains of skeletons of animals with clear evidence of systemic bone infection. An example is provided by a partial lamb skeleton from a site in Cambridgeshire, buried in a discrete pit. Such a practice echoes the advice of early modern writers like Mascall, who urged the rapid disposal of infected animals to prevent the spread of contagion to healthy beasts:
The remedies are, ye shall flay the beast that is so dead, and bury him in a deep pit, and cover him well with earth, that no dogs can come to the carrion. For so many beasts as do smell thereof, are like to be infected with the same disease.
But the absence of particular pathologies is sometimes as revealing as those that are present. Healed long-bone fractures in domestic livestock are incredibly rare. This may reflect the low chance of survival for such animals. Yet knowledge about fracture repair existed, as Mascall reveals:
To help any bone of a beast that is broken, ye must cast and bind his legs, and then feel softly how the bones do lie, then shall ye cause that limb to be holden out straight, and with your two hands, ye shall stroke softly up and down, and then softly put each bone into his right place again. Then in holding the limb straight, feel if all the said bones be well bolstered round about, and then splinted thereon and well lapped, and let it so remain for the space of nine days.
The absence of healed injuries in the archaeological remains strongly suggests that such animals were slaughtered before healing could take place. As in the case of the buried lamb, economic pragmatism and animal care may have been closely entangled.
But the archaeological record also shows that animals were not always well cared for. Defleshing marks on the bones of some 15 horses dumped in a derelict cellar at Dudley Castle in the West Midlands sometime around 1700 indicate they had been knackered for their skins and their flesh recycled for dog food. Many of these horse bones also displayed pathology. Advanced joint disease was common and was included in bones of the hock (mid-leg) joint which had become so arthritic that they had fused together (a condition known as spavin), which would have rendered the animal lame. In one horse infection had set in within one of the lower leg bones, most probably following a traumatic injury to the overlying skin. This infection had developed to such an extent that the pressure of the pus had built up in the centre of the bone until it eventually erupted, leading to an open drain of infectious fluid through the leg.
Of course, it is not always possible to tell from bones whether efforts were made to heal problems. But bone spavin is one condition for which attempts to cure might potentially be visible on bone remains and advice on cures appear frequently in early farrier texts. These usually involve the application of caustic blisters (a corrosive substance) or mechanical means to remove excessive bone growth. For example, in 1687, G.L. recommended:
Take a penknife and lay open the skin about the bony excrescence; and having a chisel or knife for that purpose, strike off or pare away the bone till you come as near as may be to the quick; then having ready a plaster of bees-wax and verdigris well mixed by melting, bind it on, but so that it may not afflict the vein, and renew it every other day for the space of a week.
However, no such evidence exists on the horse bones at Dudley Castle and the general impression gained from these remains is of a group of horses that had been worked exceptionally hard in life and then exploited in death before being unceremoniously dumped in an abandoned building.
The picture emerging from this collaborative approach to understanding early modern human-animal relations is itself apparently contradictory. Animals were clearly individualised and they were also economically valuable assets. Yet these assets could have names or be worked with little consideration for the health consequences resulting from their labour when those consequences did not interfere with productivity.

Great location. Helpful staff.
Location Breakfast quality
Wifi signal low
The location is very great. Room was very nice. Everything are very OK. Staff was nice. Hotel is clean and feel safety. Breakfast also great with price that I paid. I will come again to stay there.
Location as we were on foot from the station
staff were rude when we arrived, better staff in the morning though
Clean, near trains and metro, good internet and breakfast
close to the railway station & subway
- wi-fi was TERRIBLE. the hotspot was unavailable 80% of day time so I could not run most of my business meetings. it worked more or less ok 1-2 hours in the afternoon and few hours around midnight. it was absolutely unacceptable. Fortunately, the hotel staff connected me to their dedicated wi-fi hotspot when I started complaining and I could at least work near the lobby. - the breakfast was of the little choice, not at the 4 star hotel level, by my mind (coffee was great, but even there was no any type of omelette...)
The breakfast and bar-staff were more helpful than the staff at the front desk. Brilliant breakfast!
Not enough restaurants around the hotel but close to both Metro and buslines. The wi-fi could be better even it's free.
-The receptionist is impolite and agressive his name was Roberto. -The Wifi was not working at all in the room -The room was not Clean - The TV was not working 2 rooms - I had to change my room more than once and all were very poor
Ideally located right near the central station, only 20 minutes walk to the city centre if you don't want to take a taxi or subway. Really quiet for such a place. Very efficient and friendly staff. Rooms are very clean and quite spacious. Above all, well-decorated.
In the morning the city noise, including the one from construction works is heard, you'd better shut the windows. Food selection for breakfast could be a little wider.
We chose a location near the train station and were very happy with our booking. It was a short five minute walk to the hotel and we were upgraded to a spacious room on the top floor with a large balcony filled with trees and shrubs. Getting on the metro was an easy task and it was only four stops to the Duomo station. We wanted a hotel by the station to avoid paying for cabs. The breakfast was very nice, served in a pleasant dining room. The staff was very friendly and kind and we found the hotel to be immaculate. We would definitely stay there again on a future trip to Milano.
Very close to the station Quiet room Very clean and pretty modern Great breakfast Friendly staff
Nice ambiente, attentive and fiendly staff Good breakfast and well located
Extemly noisy chiller of air conditions on the roof that you will have no sleep in the 6th floor. Very week WLAN in some rooms.
Very good location, really kind and helpful stuff.
Very old building, weird smell, poor breakfast.
Very close to Milano Centrale train station, great if needing an overnight train stop over. Staff friendly and recommended a great little local restaurant just few min walk away, (we went for lunch and dinner). Main bed very comfy.
Hotel showing its age, but fine for a night or two and good value. Our daughters sofa bed was not the most comfortable.
Location was good, staff were nice, good value overall.
The wifi was unreliable.
Service, rooms, breakfast all excellent.
Decor was dated and a bit gloomy
Accessibility to the train station, hop on hop off bus, good breakfast, very helpful staff
It was a good location very close to trains & buses.Good value for money.
Great location adjacent to main train station. Clean comfortable room with helpful English speaking staff. Adequate / good breakfast.
Spacious room , great bathroom. Lovely breakfast Good location
Very elegant room, large private deck, excellent breakfast included, across the plaza from train station & great value for the money.
Good position close to the central station. About 4 stops away from the duomo on the metro system. Polite helpful staff.
