#320 new defect
Type checking when casting objects to pointers
|Reported by:

|Type Analysis
Description (last modified by scoder)
a) There's currently a lot of different PyObject declarations floating around in Cython/Includes?. This could be fixed by centralizing them. [DONE]
b) However, currently it is possible to do <AnyStruct*>pyobject. This is probably a bit too lenient -- one would wish to require <AnyStruct*><void*>pyobject; while still allowing <PyObject*>pyobject. This could speak in favor of making PyObject a builtin.

- Component changed from Parsing to Type Analysis

- Milestone changed from wishlist to 0.12
Targeting this to 0.12 as it's really annoying. There should be a builtin "PyObject?" type that's simply known without any cimports.
comment:2 Changed 7 years ago by scoder
- Milestone changed from 0.12 to 0.13
This has not been decided yet. The cleanup in Cython/Includes/? lifts the weight from this problem. Retargeting to 0.13.

Differences Between NDM and FTP
NDMvs FTP
There are several ways that the exchange of files between two computers can be done. In most cases, information will be seen from one computer which is the user, and the other computer receiving the information which becomes the client. There is a need to check on an acceptable protocol to use to allow for a seamless exchange. There are two main exchange protocols that can be used. One of these is the FTP and the other NDM.
"FTP" is an acronym that stands for "file transfer protocol." This protocol is by default the standard mode of exchanging information between two computers, mainly the user and the server. The technology behind the use of FTP is that one of the ends of the exchange ought to act as a client while the other end must act as the server. Upon request from the client to server, the server has been programmed to either allow or disallow the client access. In the event that the client is granted entry, they can get files from the server which is commonly referred to as downloading. To place files, this process is known as uploading.
"NDM," on the other hand, refers to network data mover, a name that has stuck since its inception. Ownership of the company has changed through time to Sterling Commerce, and the new name used in reference to NMD is CONNECT: Direct. The main use of NDM is to help in the automation of the file exchange between the client and the server.
Due to its automated feature, NDM is a great resource to use when dealing with large data packets. An example is financial companies that are constantly working on collecting data. Automation of exchange of data makes work quite easier as opposed to an FTP file transfer. This is a good welcome for those who prefer the traditional method of entering data from a client end and uploading it up to the server. If the data being transferred is highly sensitive, NDM allows for encryption of the data being sent to ensure data integrity. This is not a feature that is ordinarily available in FTP.
Although comparing performance, you might find NDM and FTP to offer more or less the same services. NDM is a step ahead because when uploading or downloading data to the server, it employs a unique compression feature. The feature is important as a comparative scrutiny between the two shows that less bandwidth is utilized by NDM as opposed to FTP and thus NDM may be faster.
Another important feature of NDM over FTP is that it offers a checkpoint restart, a feature not available in FTP. Further, it offers integration and added management tools which allows for the automation of different aspects of the client production environment. This is a great help, especially with regards to logging of all file transfers which makes auditing quite easy.
NDM offers for logging, audit, and control features.
FTP does not have elaborate processes for logging and auditing.
NDM is an asset when dealing with large data packets through its fully automated feature.
FTP requires thorough follow-up of the processes for file transfers and downloads.
Data security is guaranteed with NDM which offers encryption.
FTP has the encryption option desired for improved data security.
NDM compresses data and therefore uses a low bandwidth.
FTP does not compress data and uses a higher bandwidth.
The checkpoint restart feature is offered in NDM.
FTP does not allow for checkpoint restart.
NDM offers pre- and post-processing features.
FTP only has post-processing features.

Thanks. I am thinking about buying the D600 to replace my D300. I do not fee comfortable using the D300 above 800-1000 ISO.
Other than better ISO performance what are the benefits of the D600 compared to the D300?
The files have a much smoother gradation from shadows to highlights due to the better DR, I suppose. You can push and pull a lot more in post. I also really like the U1 and U2 modes as well as the Easy ISO setting. It's just a much more intuitive camera to use. I haven't noticed any problem with autofocus, it seems just as fast if not faster, and I usually focus and recompose anyway.

2010 – Day 3191
Finch enters the library on crutches and asks The Machine via a camera if it knew.
2013 - Day 1
The Machine reboots after the Decima virus shuts it down, and dials the pay phone at the New York Public Library. Finch reroutes The Machine's call to the phone near Reese, while Root picks up the call and The Machine makes contact with her. It tells her 3:00 and she says that she understands, and then takes Harold with her. Meanwhile, Reese takes the call and The Machine tells him 4:00. He steps out and shoots at the Decima men, while the phone rattles off more times and tells him to stay. Each time it gives a new time, he shoots and hits a mercenary.
As Root leave with Harold, she tells The Machine to give her abbreviated audio prompts and sound cues. She then follows the directions The Machine gives her and shoots two men through a closed door.
Reese continues to pick off opponents, each one at a different position on a clock, as The Machine gives him their positions. The phone shorts out and Reese hangs up, and he gets a call on his cell phone. The Machine tells him to move now and he leaves with Sam.
Root tells Finch that she's enjoying herself and then asks The Machine how Reese is keeping up to them.
As Reese and Sam leave the library, he explains that he's getting his intel from a computer, the same one that provided Numbers of terrorists to her organization. They find Finch's glasses outside, the ones with the tracker that Reese planted, and he turns to a surveillance camera and tells The Machine to give him Finch's whereabouts. There's no response and Sam assumes that Reese is nuts, When Reese asks for a car they can use, The Machine directs him to a nearby vehicle.
IAB interrogates Carter about the shooting and she insists that the suspect had a weapon. They don't believe her and says that they'll question her again in twenty minutes.
Reese tells Sam about how Root wants access to The Machine to set it free. Reese gets a non-relevant Number on his cell phone but says that it has nothing to do with Finch. A driver parks up in front of them and goes inside, leaving the engine running. As Reese and Sam get in the car, The Machine updates its warning status to Imminent. Reese finally agrees to help and they drive off.
Two Eurotrash mobsters are preparing to kill a man when Reese and Sam arrive and shoot them. Reese tells the man that the police will be there soon and informs Sam that they're done. As they go, they discover that the police have found the car they stole. The Machine directs them to a yellow sportscar and Sam eagerly gets in.
Hersh interrogates a prisoner, Asif, and demands to know about the ferry.
Hersh and his men break into a hotel room and find the Special Counsel, bound and gagged. He complains that they took too long to trace his locators, and Hersh explains that Control thought the Decima situation took priority. Control is worried that Root has full access and the Special Counsel tells them to shut down cell phones and avoid all cameras.
The next morning, The Machine locates Root and Finch in the park. It sends her information on all of the people around her, and she tells it to provide glasses for Finch. The Machine directs her to a man with the same prescription and Root steals the glasses. She tells Finch that they're going to find The Machine.
Terney comes to see Carter and tells her that there's still no sign of the weapon. He advises her to contact her union rep, but Carter says that she recognized one of the unis at the crime scene as a HR man. She tells Terney that she sent Fusco to talk to him. Terney tells her that she could never keep her mouth shut and admits that he doesn't like killing women. He tells her that if she keeps digging and HR will kill Fusco and her kid, and orders her to sit there and take it. Terney's phone rings and he steps outside to take it. Carter clones his phone and listens in as Terney tells his boss that Carter is under control and next they'll take out Elias' right-hand man, and then finally Elias himself. They'll take him out during a prison transfer that night.
Reese follows The Machine's directions and goes back to the library. Finch programmed it not to give him specific directions so Reese figures The Machine has something at the library. He's confident that Finch had his reasons for creating the virus as Greer said, and figures that Root doesn't have The Machine's location either. Reese gets a call from The Machine saying "Ghost Alpha Kilo." He looks up the code for the book, Ghost in the Machine, and finds a photo of Finch and Nathan inside the book. There's a secret panel in the shelf and they open it. There's a safe and The Machine sends the combination. Inside they find photos of women that Nathan helped... including Reese's girlfriend Jessica. He tells Sam that she isn't alive.
Also inside the safe is a map with a route tracing the path of The Machine after the government picked it up. Reese figures that Nathan was looking for The Machine, and narrowed it down to three places. Sam points out that they're all nuclear storage sites, and tells Reese that Root tortured her for information on Daniel Aquino, a nuclear engineer. The man who hired Aquino was Lawrence Szilard.
Root finds Lawrence and says that she has some questions
Finch returns to the library to see Nathan, who says that he's quit. He knows that Nathan is looking for The Machine and points out that he can't access it. Nathan plans to call a reporter and tell him about The Machine, but Finch says that he can't do it. He explains that everyone involved with The Machine is at risk, and that the government is killing the engineers who reassembled The Machine. Lawrence went missing a month ago, and others have died in accidents. Finch warns that if the government knows that he's called a journalist, they'll eliminate him rather than risk it. Nathan says that Finch can't bring himself to trust anyone and asks if he's given Grace his real name. Finch says that he's waiting for the right time, and Nathan asks for the irrelevant list. He asks Finch help him help them, but Finch says that he's trying to help his friend. Nathan tells his friend where he's meeting the reporter the next day and says that Finch should be there.
Root explains to Lawrence that a friend told her where to find him. As Lawrence walks away, Root tells him that it'd be a shame if something happened to his daughter Christine in LA. Finch tells Lawrence how it all started, and Lawrence says that he's apparently the last member of the Northern Lights project.
As Reese gets Lawrence's location from The Machine, The Machine sends him another Number. Sam and Reese drive to a church as a man threatens a newlywed bride, Katie. Reese shoots him, wishes the couple congratulations, and drives off.
Lawrence explains that they were contracted to build a structure in plain sight with enough power for 50,000 people. The government sent in the Army Corps of Engineers and the specs for a nuclear reactor. Lawrence took a look at the I/O and realized that The Machine was practically alive. He realizes that it's speaking to Root. The Machine informs Root that multiple threats are closing in and she leads Lawrence and Finch away. She tells Lawrence that she plans to set The Machine free and he agrees. Meanwhile, Hersh orders his sniper to open fire. The sniper kills Lawrence and fires at Root, and Finch drags her away. She shoots two more men and walks away with Finch, while Reese and Sam arrive and find Lawrence's corpse. She tells Reese to go on and picks up Lawrence's discarded briefcase.
Root steals a truck and gets in with Finch. Reese runs up and calls his friend's name, but Finch ignores him and tells Root that he knows where The Machine is and he'll take her to it. She quickly drives off and Sam figures that Finch had a change of heart.
Hersh continues to interrogate his prisoner about the ferry. Asif admits that he was going to load Semtex on a van, park it next to the Liberty Island ferry, and set it off himself, committing suicide in the process. Hersh shoots the translator and then gives Asif an injection, knocking him out.
Sam tells Reese that she found a baggage claim ticket to Portland in Lawrence's briefcase. One of the three sites is near there and they figure that Root is heading there. They try to commandeer a car and Sam finally ends up firing shots into the street, and the driver quickly gets out.
Root captures a businessman, Chandler, and informs him that they're borrowing his private jet.
Carter calls Reese and tells him that HR is planning to eliminate Elias. He points out that Elias threatened her kid, but Carter explains that Elias had his men paroled so they could watch over his wounded lieutenant. She figures that at least Elias is loyal to his people. Reese tells her to keep her head down as the police close in on them. Reese tells The Machine to give them an extra route and it gives them directions to turn right. There's no place to turn but Sam follows the directions and they go off the bridge. A medevac helicopter team is having lunch nearby and watches as Sam and Reese stagger out of the car and take their helicopter.
Yogorov and Terney take Elias out into the woods to shoot him. Terney says that he learned that Elias' father had two of his men take him into the woods to shoot him, and figures that it's karma. Elias refuses to talk to him and says that at least Yogorov has a legitimate brief with him. He calls Terney an oathbreaker and a worm, and Terney puts the bag back on his head and prepares to shoo him. A masked figure runs out of the woods, shoots Yogorov, and knocks Terney out. The rescuer gets Elias into the car and Elias removes his bag and discovers that his rescuer is Carter. She admits that she doesn't know where they're going.
At the nuclear site in Portland, a containment breach alarm goes off. As they evacuate, Root and Finch casually walk in. They come to a vault door and The Machine informs them that the code has expired. When an engineer comes out and tells them they have to leave, Root draws her gun and orders him to let them in. He does and Root leads Finch in to meet "God." One man, the caretaker, is seated in the middle of a vast empty chamber. Finch apologizes and says that he already set The Machine free. Root begs The Machine to talk to her, and then accuses Finch of lying to her. She prepares to shoot him, but Reese and Sam come in and Sam shoots Root in the shoulder. Finch tells Reese that he had hoped The Machine would be gone.
The next morning, the government learns that Nathan is going to talk to the papers. They know where he's going and figure they have a solution already at hand.
Finch goes to the ferry where Nathan is meeting the reporter. Meanwhile, Hersh drives Asif to the ferry and wakes him up. Asif discovers that he's zip-tied to the wheel and that there's Semtex in the back. Hersh tells the terrorist that he'll complete his mission, gets out, and walks away.
Nathan spots Finch on the ferry and says that it's time for them to face the music. The van blows up.
Reese tends to Root's wound while Finch explains that The Machine could only accept alterations in its programming in response to an attack. He figured that someone would try to take it over and made sure that they did it with his code. Reese realizes that Finch hid a virus within the virus, and that he realized that the people he and Nathan turned The Machine over to were the wrong people. He didn't involve Reese because he hoped that Reese would continue their work.
The alarms shut off and Finch insists that they take Root with them because leaving her would be a death sentence. Hersh and his men come in, guns drawn, and Sam and Reese aim at them. The Special Counsel arrives and tells Sam that he's surprised she turned traitor. She asks what he wants and the Special Counsel asks for a word with Finch. He asks him where he moved The Machine, and Finch says that it moved itself. When the Special Counsel wonders who controls it, Finch says that it controls itself and that it will send Numbers depending on what it feels like sending. The Special Counsel warns him that the country is defenseless, but Finch says that it's only less well-defended. When the Special Counsel asks Finch to help them rebuild or recover it, and gives his word, Finch points out that they gave Nathan their word... and then killed him. Finch leads his people out and the Special Counsel asks Sam if she's choosing the right side. She says that he lied to her as well and leaves.
Finch wakes up in a hospital, covered in blood. A nurse tells him that he sustained injuries to his neck and lower back. As she goes to get help, Finch sees Nathan on a nearby table. The doctors call him as dead and Finch overhears two men calling into report that it's taken care of. Finch borrows a crutch and limps toward the door. Grace comes in, calling for him, and Finch hides behind a screen. She goes to the personal effects table and finds the book with the engagement ring. The two government agents watch the entire room and Finch, realizing that he can't approach Grace without endangering her, limps out.
Later, Finch goes to the library and asks The Machine if it knew. He accesses the non-relevant data and finds Nathan's Number. The clock strikes midnight and The Machine erases all irrelevant data.
The Special Counsel talks to the caretaker, who explains that he apparently received orders from Washington authorized the removal of The Machine. It was removed one node at a time to maintain regular service, and the caretaker has no idea where it was going. He called and confirmed it with the Special Counsel, or so he thought. The Special Counsel receives a call from his superior and assures her that they'll be able to track The Machine. She asks for Hersh and he takes the phone, and he receives special orders to "seal the room." Hersh shoots the caretaker and then his own men. He turns to the Special Counsel, who says "Fair enough," and Hersh shoots him dead.
Back in New York, Reese and Finch take Bear walking. Finch has no idea if they'll receive another Number. He explains that he put the code out to free The Machine, but had no idea what consequences it might have. Finch accepted that someone might get hurt and apologizes for changing things for Reese because of what he did. Reese says that Finch had nothing to do with how he changed his life when he didn't say what he had to, to Jessica. A nearby pay phone rings and they both look at it.
Hersh informs his superior that Research made contact two minutes ago. She tells him to get a team.
Root is locked up at a psychiatric ward. As she walks by a pay phone, it rings and she goes over to answer it. A voice at the other end asks "Can you hear me?" and she smiles and says, "Absolutely."

Just when I thought the Conservative talking heads have hit rock bottom, they've begun to dig.
Here I am, fuming on the outskirts of the Judge Sonia Sotomayor debacle as the conservative bulldogs rip her work record and reputation to shreds. I've been waiting patiently, for someone to just stand up and proclaim,bullsh*t!
Now, if I am to believe the talking radio gods on the far right of the radio dial, Judge Sonia Sotomayor is racist against the disenfranchised, genteel white man. And she wants to take away their guns, or to be more specific; their right to bear the two sticks on a chain -- aka Nunchuks -- on the pristine, peaceful, crime-free streets of New York.
(I'm not too familiar, but can the deployment of rapid fire Nunchuks stop a stray New York bullet, anyway? Just asking.)
Oh, yeah, Judge Sotomayor is stuck up -- I mean, who does Judge Sonia soh-toh-my-YORZ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/06/02/how-to-pronounce-sonia-so_n_210436.html think she is, by expecting that her name be pronounced correctly?
Is everyone really expected to speak in an unnatural dialect just to please her?
Just what in the hell is this conservative White man's world coming to?
What's next on the agenda of sexist hateration? The way Judge Sotomayor wears her hair?
And who will come to her defense?
Where's my favorite Latina judge, Marilyn Milian of The People's Court? I'm sure she has a word or two for those blueblood bad boys. Does Judge Milian know that the legion of Diva Feministas like myself are waiting on her fire-and-brimstone rebuttal?
Did she get our e-mail?
OK, enough already, guys.
My dearest level-headed, gentle-as-a-baby's-first-breath Rush Limbaughers, please call off the hounds, and give Judge Sotomayor the opportunity to put her life's experiences and mastery of the law -- overwhelmingly the laws created by your fair and balanced brethren -- to work in the highest court in the land.
What's blocking your approval, anyway?
Is it that Judge Sotomayor doesn't resemble the Supreme Court Justice nominee that you had in mind?
Is it that she could quite possibly become the first Hispanic female justice, nominated by the country's first black president, further cementing the notion that a truly post-race America is inevitable?
How can we get past this fork in the road? I have a few ideas:
If it will help you, please ignore that President Barack Obama nominated her.
If it will help you, please forget that behind Judge Sotomayor's irresistible smile lies empathy. As we all know, the U.S. Supreme Court is no place for empathy to be practiced. The travesty!
If it will help you, please ignore that she is a woman who, against all odds, made her own way in your world.
If it will help you, please ignore her ethnicity -- and what a historic appointment this would be -- for that matter.
And because it will help Diva Feministas like myself, we will ignore you.

The rupee dropped by 23 paise to settle at one-week low of 53.91 against the Greenback on heavy dollar demand from importers amid some hesitancy in local stocks.
Firm dollar overseas also weighed on the rupee, while continued foreign funds inflow in equities restricted the fall to some extent, a forex dealer said.
The rupee commenced weak at 53.85 a dollar from last Thursday's close of 53.68 at the Interbank Foreign Exchange (Forex) market and moved erratically in a narrow range between 53.75 and 53.95 before concluding at 53.91, showing a fall of 23 paise or 0.43 per cent.
The Indian benchmark Sensex today moved in a narrow breadth before finishing almost flat ahead of the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) third quarter monetary policy tomorrow.
Month-end dollar from importers affected the rupee sentiment.
The dollar index, a gauge of six major global currencies, was up by 0.12 per cent.
After appreciating for the last couple of sessions, rupee started depreciating against the US dollar today. Rupee was seen weakening despite the strong recovery in the euro. The month end demand for dollars from the importers is putting some pressure on the rupee.
"The rupee was seen trading in the range of 20 paise. The dollar index was higher, rupee was seen depreciating against the US dollar. This points towards the inherent weakness in the rupee. Tomorrow's RBI monetary policy will be the important event to watch for," said Abhishek Goenka, Founder and CEO, India Forex Advisors.
Pramit Brahmbhatt, CEO, Alpari Financial Services (India) said,"The INR continued to remain weak for most of the day's session as risk aversion in global markets over tensions in North Korea and dollar demand from importers continued to weigh on INR.
"The pair has been trading on a lacklustre note on rising uncertainty of the outcome of tomorrow's credit policy meet. A weaker tone of domestic equity markets also added to the weak cause."
The premium for the forward dollar closed steady to better on stray payments from banks and corporates.
The benchmark six-month forward dollar premium payable in June closed at its last Thursday's level of 156-158 paise while far-forward contracts maturing in December moved up further to 315-1/2-317-1/2 paise from 312-314 paise.
The RBI has fixed the reference rate for the US dollar at 53.8905 and for euro at 72.5070.
The rupee remained firm against the pound sterling to 84.72 from last weekend's close of 84.95 and also improved further against the Japanese yen to

Noble Energy (NYSE:NBL) plans to aggressively develop properties in the Denver Julesburg Basin, to help meet the company's goal of growing production at a 17% compound annual rate through 2016.
Investopedia Markets: Explore the best one-stop source for financial news, quotes and insights.
Denver Julesburg Basin
Noble Energy has a total of 840,000 net acres under lease, in the Denver Julesburg Basin, which extends, mostly, into parts of Colorado and Wyoming. The company is focused on the Niobrara formation, here, and is looking to increase production, from this play, to 70,000 barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) per day in 2016, up from current levels of 14,000 BOE per day.
Noble Energy will allocate $8 billion in capital to develop the Denver Julesburg Basin from 2012 to 2016, with more than 70% of this capital used for horizontal development.
If the company is successful here, production from the basin would double, and reach 134,000 BOE per day by 2016, with 66% of this production composed of crude oil and natural gas liquids. (Learn more in Understanding Oil Industry Terminology.)
Wattenberg Field
Noble Energy is concentrating on the Wattenberg Field, and is engaged in a horizontal development program on its 400,000 net acre position here. The company has 58 producing horizontal wells in this field, and reported liquid contents ranging from 40 to 90%.
Noble Energy has improved, operationally, since entering this play, and has increased well performance sharply. The company's first eight wells had an average estimated ultimate recovery (EUR) of 270,000 BOE, compared to an average EUR of 355,000 BOE for the last 18 wells completed in the Niobrara. Noble Energy has achieved this productivity gain through longer laterals, and additional fracturing stages. (For additional reading, see Oil And Gas Industry Primer.)
Noble Energy is planning to double its operated rig count in the Wattenberg Field within two years, and estimates that it has 3,900 future drilling locations on its acreage, in this area. The company estimates that the Niobrara has potential net risked resources of 600 million BOE.
Noble Energy also has 440,000 net acres exposed to the Niobrara, outside of the Wattenberg Field, and is at the initial stages of exploring this acreage. The company plans to operate one rig outside the Wattenberg Field, and will drill two wells during the fourth quarter of 2011. (For related reading, see A Guide To Investing In Oil Markets.)
Other Operators
EOG Resources (NYSE:EOG) is generally credited with kicking off the horizontal well development of the Niobrara. The company has 220,000 net acres under lease, and estimates that it has proved up approximately 76% of its position through horizontal development.
Another company, that is involved with the Niobrara, is Anadarko Petroleum (NYSE:APC), which recently reported 11 successful horizontal wells in this play. The company estimates that its properties hold between 500 million and 1.5 billion BOE of net resources.
Carrizo Oil and Gas (Nasdaq:CRZO) is at the beginning of its development of the Niobrara, and has approximately 61,658 net acres under lease in Colorado. The company recently reported five successful horizontal wells, here, and plans to spend $35 million in the Niobrara in 2012.
Rex Energy (Nasdaq:REXX) has not been as successful as others in the Niobrara, and reported two non-commercial wells, here, in October 2011. The company is now considering strategic alternatives for its position here. (For additional reading, see What Determines Oil Prices?)
The Bottom Line
Noble Energy has a solid plan to generate growth off the company's assets in the Niobrara over the next five years, and appears confident that it can succeed here. However, other operators have found the play more difficult to develop, and investors might want to exercise caution before crediting full value to these properties.

It is mobile Internet that will help close the digital divide in Asia, according to Ericsson Malaysia.
Ericsson Malaysia president Krishna Kumar said: "In Malaysia, there has been growth but one in two PCs don't yet have broadband access, so there is a significant broadband opportunity locally, especially in the next one or two years."
"Malaysia is seen as a key market for Ericsson: people need to have access for browsing, messaging, e-mail, downloading and file sharing," said Kumar. "Analyst firm Pyramid Research indicates that fewer than 10 million households in Southeast Asia have broadband subscriptions today, and 40 million households need to be addressed."
Room for growth
Kumar said: "By the close of 2008, mobile provider Maxis claimed four million subscribers who can access the Internet through the mobile phone, of which 195,000 are mobile broadband users."
"In 2009, mobile Internet usage will really take off, driven by new portable devices, and the economic downturn is a blessing in disguise as user behaviour has changed: people stay at home and access the Internet," he said. "Gaming is also a key driver behind increased data usage."
He said that Ericsson estimated a growth of all data traffic in Southeast Asia, where just 10 per cent of all data traffic by 2011 would be voice.
Solving bottlenecks
"There is a huge data traffic growth in Malaysia because of the uptake of broadband services," said Ericsson head of broadband networks product marketing, Don McCullough. "Managing mobile backhaul is the new challenge for operators, in order to give end-users the quality of service they expect or need."
McCullough said that once the data is generated, it is transported through radio network controllers into the core network, the metro optical network.
"Radio backhaul network is where we need to solve bottlenecks in coping with different systems and protocols," said McCullough. "Such as from GSM's [global system for mobile communications] at 14.4 Kbps, through to HSPA [high speed packet access] Evolution at 42Mbps, and LTE [long term evolution] at 80-160 Mbps."
"Our view is IP-over-ethernet is the most cost-effective approach," said McCullough. "Ericsson have end-to-end systems from microwave, optical transport GPON [gigabit-capable passive optical network], through to high speed copper fibre, as well as point-to- point solutions," said McCullough.
"Asia is the driver behind any current economical momentum," added Kumar. "Malaysia is one of our premier markets, especially in terms of rates of adoption. Ericsson's role is to help ease access to the Internet, as well as to provide consistency, quality of service, and reasonable pricing."
This story, "Mobile Internet will help bridge Asian digital divide" was originally published by MIS Asia.

Mercedes-Benz landaulets in the post-war period
Early papal car: The Mercedes-Benz 300 d
Just 59 factory-built Mercedes-Benz 600 landaulets
The 1950s saw a functional transformation of the landaulet, from a versatile body design for city and country motoring to a vehicle used almost solely as a parade car. This led to the landaulet design becoming an extreme rarity: during the second half of the 20th century Mercedes-Benz built only 59 landaulets based on the Mercedes-Benz 600 model (W 100), plus a few exclusive landaulets specially manufactured in the company's workshops. Most famous of all are the Mercedes-Benz landaulets made as papal cars.
This tradition started in 1960 with a Mercedes-Benz 300 d landaulet. In fact Mercedes-Benz had already given the Vatican an official car for the pope's use some decades before, in 1930. But in contrast to the earlier "Rome car" – a Mercedes-Benz Nürburg 460 Pullman limousine – this time the vehicle had a folding convertible top at the rear. Pope John XXIII himself had requested a landaulet body for the new automobile from Stuttgart. The meticulously handcrafted W 189 landaulet (only two of which were ever made) was based on a chassis with a wheelbase lengthened by around 45 centimeters to a total of 3.6 meters. The car was also around ten centimeters higher than the production model.
The three-liter six-cylinder in-line engine developing 160 hp/118 kW was the same as in the production version. This gave the papal car a top speed of 160 km/h, but of course it was generally driven at a much more sedate tempo on official outings. At such times, with the roof open, the rear side windows could be completely removed and placed in specially designed brackets in the trunk. The partition between front and rear seats and the front windows were electrically operated and lowered simply by pressing a button.
The locking devices for the roof mechanism were accessible from the driver's seat, and the convertible top itself was opened and closed in a matter of seconds. Steps automatically opened out from the car floor when the rear doors were opened, making it easier for the pope to enter and alight from the vehicle. The throne-style seat for the pontiff was placed in the middle at the rear, facing in the direction of travel, with two folding seats opposite, attached to the partition, for accompanying staff. Around the papal seat, which was electrically adjustable, were the controls for air conditioning, intercom and other functions. At the presentation of the car in 1960, the pope was clearly delighted with the vehicle equipment.
Landaulet as small-run production series: Mercedes-Benz 600
The 300 d landaulet attracted considerable attention – but the most notable development in the history of this body design in the second half of the 20th century came with the Mercedes-Benz factory-built landaulet versions of the 600 model (W 100). In the book "Mercedes-Benz 600" published in 2001, author Heribert Hofer describes the landaulet from this model series as
"a genuine old-style parade car, a unique automotive treasure."
And indeed, heads of state like Queen Elizabeth Elisabeth II, Pope Paul VI and his successors and heads of government all around the world chose this model to greet onlookers as they drove through the streets. The German government also regularly called on a Mercedes-Benz 600 landaulet for ceremonial occasions, although the vehicle was not owned by the state. Instead, the car was kept in the company fleet in Stuttgart and made available on request.
Production of the 600 model, in the "Grand Mercedes" tradition, started in September 1964. The Pullman landaulet, along with a number of limousines, was a production variant of the Pullman body with the long wheelbase of the W 100. Mercedes-Benz offered its customers four different landaulet versions based on this exclusive design: the standard version had four doors, facing rear seats, and a folding top extending as far as the front edges of the rear doors. There was also a special six-door version with a seat bench in the rear and additional fold-out seats facing in the direction of travel. In this variant, as in the six-door Pullman limousine, the middle doors could also be provided without handles. Both the above landaulets - the four-door and six-door design – could also be equipped on request with a long convertible top reaching as far as the partition.
All these versions were based on a long-wheelbase W 100 chassis, but in 1967 a one-off short-wheelbase W 100 landaulet was also produced. The vehicle was commissioned by Count von Berckheim. The ex-racing driver's Mercedes-Benz 600 combined the handling qualities of a short-wheelbase design with the traditional virtues of the landaulet. The time and effort involved in this one-off project indicates that the 59 Pullman landaulets built hardly represented a "series production" operation in the strict sense - in fact, with such a wide variety of interior equipment options and special features it would be difficult to find two identically-equipped 600 landaulets. But one thing all these vehicles had in common was their exceedingly high price. The exclusive body design with the folding convertible top did not appear on the official price list, but the Mercedes-Benz 600 was regarded as the world's most expensive production car of its day.
Mercedes-Benz 600 landaulet for the Vatican
In 1965 Mercedes-Benz presented the Vatican with another landaulet based on the W 100 Pullman. The manufacture of the car was a cooperative project of the testing and production departments in Sindelfingen. The four-door landaulet was presented to Pope Paul VI at his summer residence in Castel Gandolfo by Hermann Josef Abs, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Daimler-Benz AG, General Manager Walter Hitzinger, and Board of Management members Fritz Nallinger and Arnold Wychodil, along with Karl Wilfert and three employees from the Daimler-Benz plant in Sindelfingen.
The equipment of this landaulet differed from the production version in several details: the rear doors were 25.6 centimeters wider, and came right up to the partition. The rear doors also included new operating controls, designed to be within easy reach from the papal seat located centrally in the back of the passenger compartment. The designers at Sindelfingen made the roof seven centimeters higher to provide ample head room - a modification required because of the flat floor in the rear of the W 100, concealing the propeller shaft tunnel beneath. Special equipment included air conditioning, an intercom for communicating with the driver, and the ability to shift the single armchair-style seat at the rear in several different directions.
The pontiff was delighted with the sophisticated technology in his W 100.
"The name of Mercedes has become proverbial all round the world for German diligence and skill – which makes this gift all the more precious,"
said Paul VI in his words of appreciation for the automotive engineering achievements of the team in Stuttgart back in 1965. The Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman landaulet bearing the legendary license plate SCV 1 (the abbreviation for "Stato della Città del Vaticano") is now on display in the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart.
W 109 and V 140 landaulets built in-house
And the specialists at Mercedes-Benz built another two landaulets for the Vatican in the years after 1965, both based on standard limousines. The first of these papal cars, built as early as 1966 with a single rear seat, was a landaulet based on a
Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL limousine (W 109 series) with standard wheelbase (2.85 meters). The seat could be moved to the right if necessary to create room for a passenger on the fold-out seat fitted on the partition. This car remained in use for many years, in parallel with the W 100 landaulet. The 300 SEL was not equipped with quite the same level of luxury as the Mercedes-Benz 600 – for example there was no air conditioning in the shorter vehicle. The car was however retrofitted with armor plating in 1981.
This was followed in 1997 by a landaulet based on the Mercedes-Benz S 500 with a long wheelbase (V 140). Like its predecessors, this was a "no expense spared" one-off project that combined traditional values with contemporary technology. The car had numerous special equipment features. The electro-hydraulically operated convertible top, when closed, was five centimeters higher than in the limousine, to provide more head room above the papal seat. On taking delivery of the vehicle in person in 1997, Pope John Paul II was given a briefing on the car's technical features and praised the design.
Heir to a great tradition
The 600 model was the only Mercedes-Benz ever built as a production landaulet over the last 60 years. However, the brand has repeatedly made good use of this type of bodywork with specially designed superstructures as for the papal cars. The sense of a unique driving culture that is epitomized in the landaulet is as strong as ever in Stuttgart. And it is this knowledge and living heritage from the past that provides the basis for the Maybach landaulet in 2007.

Game reviews have become a stagnant, homogeneous pool; we're aiming to transition from the standard to the extraordinary.
"Objective" reviews based on the old, familiar parameters serve a valuable purpose, and can be fine pieces of work. Many great game critics strive to produce this type of review. But what is special about these pieces of writing? What can be said about the meaning of those games, how they relate to our greater lives, and what our psychological and emotional experiences have been and will be with them?
Even more simply, what is interesting about those games, the words we say about them, and what others think of those analyses? We have creative, independent brains… we plan to use them.
On May 5th, 2010 (5/5/10), GamerNode adopted a new, 5-point rating system to simplify our assessments of each game and better reflect the quality of each overall experience, in understandable, human terms. In doing so, we aim to make more complete use of the scale's full range to better approximate a normal distribution of scores and eliminate any misleading skews. Here is a brief explanation of each of the five possible scores games will receive at GamerNode from this point forward:
These are excellent, "must-buy" games. Their negative qualities are few and far between, making them overwhelmingly enjoyable, "classic" experiences. They aren't necessarily "perfect," but a majority of gamers are sure to fall in love with them. Everyone should own/play these games. *Must-Buy*
These are very good games. Players will have plenty of fun with them, and they will be remembered as some of the better games of the era. We can comfortably recommend these games to most people, and would include them in our own personal libraries. Go grab 'em. *Recommended*
These are good games and provide positive play experiences. They're not exemplary, but not bad; they're playable and enjoyable. They may not set everyone's heart on fire, but they are solid and entertaining. They're worth trying out, and may even surprise you. *Cautiously Recommended*
These games are substandard experiences. They are mostly difficult to enjoy, although a few players might find something worthwhile hidden inside. Don't count them out completely; they could have been alright with a little extra effort. Genre fans may still enjoy these games. *For Select Audiences Only*
These games are painful to play. They are often broken, with almost no redeeming qualities. If you want to punish yourself, play these games. *Avoid*
Note: Titles covered at GamerNode are often received free of charge, solely for review purposes.

Chase Daniel (Mizzou)

Colt McCoy (UT)
Graham Harrell (TTU)
For one game, who ya got?
Why isn't Austen Arnaud on the list?
Since AA isn't on the list I would take Colt...Could be because I just watched his game vs A&M so it would pry be different if I just watched Sam play...
Don't think you can go wrong with any of them...
Colt McCoy hands down.
It's between Harrell and McCoy for me, and I went with Harrell. If he can just sit in the pocket and pick people apart all day, that's who i want.
I removed it.

I'm sticking with the Heisman contenders for now.
Austen will be a top Big 12 QB before he's done. Maybe even next year.
McCoy easily....great leader, great competitor, great passer, good runner and tough as nails.... Harrell and Bradford are not very mobile and Harrell is only a passer in a only pass system. Daniel...well...he picks his nose...
McCoy. The guy just knows how to win.
AA will be next year, how many qb's will return after this season. From draft projections and everything, AA will be about the only one left from this year other than Hawkins. AA easy of Hawkins or the kid from Baylor too. Forgot about him.

Iowa State became the Cyclones after they leveled Northwestern in 1895. As the Chicago Tribune (9/29/1895) noted:
'Struck by a Cyclone
It Comes from Iowa and Devastates Evanston Town'
I believe only 3 of the 12 starting QB's in the league this year are seniors. Lots of talent back again next year unless some of the underclassmen declare for the draft.
McCoy is not nearly as good as Sam Bradford. Bradford is easily the best QB in the nation as a sophmore. I think harell is good, but not as good as we make it seem.. hes more or less a product of the system at TTU
Edited original post and bolded about draft projections...
Bradford is really good. McCoy is a player, he just knows how to win. You can take either

I seriously do not think Harrell is a product of the system of TTU. He has been a started now for 3 years and has consistenly led the team to at least 9 wins per season and passed for over 4,000 yds per season. He is a proven winner and we are just now seeing it b/c of TTU's rankings and wins thus far.
In all reality then, we could say that McCoy and Bradford are products of the system just b/c both have proven pasts with their QB's and these two are just extenstions of those proven pasts.

Synopsis: Since late 2010, more than a dozen nations have experienced popular uprisings that have collectively been called the Arab Spring. Protests, buoyed by predominantly young participants and social-media organizing, have exposed repression and led to regime changes. What does it mean to take part in a collective action that has the potential to unseat dictators and bring previously undreamt-of freedoms to a people? [Synopsis courtesy of Sundance Film Festival]

That Darn Constitution
0 Comments | Print | NO PDF | Share
The Obama administration may need a bit of a refresher on the U.S. Constitution. In a peculiar move, the administration has announced that its "incentive-based" education reform strategy is now going to extend to its dealings with Congress. If Congress behaves and reauthorizes No Child Left Behind this year (a feat that seems highly unlikely at this point) and does so "consistent with the President's plan," the administration announced this week that it is going to make an extra $1 billion available for edu-spending.
The problem with this clever carrot? If you'll recall your high school civics, it's the legislative branch that writes the federal budget. The administration can propose whatever it likes, but Congress is free to disregard that figure and spend another $1 billion, $5 billion, or $50 billion whenever it darn well pleases. Andy Rotherham has a biting take on this at Eduwonk, asking, "So have we repealed parts of the Constitution, in particular Article I lately? Otherwise it's a little unclear how this proposed $1 billion incentive fund for ESEA reauthorization works since Congress, you know, controls the purse strings? They call it a budget 'request' for a reason."
For an administration that has sometimes seemed overly taken with its own virtue, the result looks both confused and high-handed. That's never a great combination.

I was at a Shell gas station yesterday here in middle Tennessee and had a disturbing thing happen to me. I swiped my card and proceeded to open the tank. As soon as I pulled out the nozzle, it started spurting gas all over the place, soaked both of my arms, my feet and sprayed on the inside of the driver side door trim panel. I was furious. Either the pump was bad, or some jerk/idiot left gas in the nozzle. Seriously though I highly suspect the former.
Immediately I went inside to tell the owner/cashier about it and he did not even pay attention to me. All he asked was, which pump and then completely ignored me. What a jackass.
I did not know whom to call to report an incident like this. Do you guys have any ideas?
Also, the inside of my car smells of gas now. How can I get rid of the smell? There wasn't any spread on the carpet or the seats, just the inside of the door trim panel because it was open. Anyone know of a way to get rid of the smell without having to take it to a professional?

Meet designer Clarissa Hulse
What inspired you study Fashion & Textiles at Brighton Art College and to become a designer?
I fell in love with textiles when I was 12 and on a French exchange trip. My exchange partner had a silk painting craft kit and once I'd had a go painting a silk scarf I was hooked. At that age I didn't know what a textile designer was, but I fell in love with textiles there and then.
So how did you get into designing your own collection of home accessories, wallpapers and fabrics?
Although I started in fashion working for companies such as French Connection, I wanted to move into interiors. In fashion, everything changes quickly in and out, but in homewares I found there's more room to develop my own style rather than changing my look every five minutes.
How did you get to set up your own business?
It was by accident! When I left college I got my own print studio in Holborn where I could print my own fabric, which I shared with some other crafters who were making jewellery and ceramics. They had an open weekend where we could sell to the public directly so I made some scarves. They sold out immediately and then Barneys in New York placed an order. Liberty's saw the scarves and it snowballed. Without meaning to I had my own business making hand-printed scarves!
Is there anything you wish you'd done differently?
The only regret I have is that I didn't work with anyone when I left college to gain some business experience. I didn't file my work in archives as I went along or anything like that. It would have shaved off five years of the time it's taken me to get where I am now!
You were born in Prague and have lived in Thailand, Spain, Italy and Greece. How has this influenced your work?
We moved every few years when I was growing up as my father was a diplomat. In every home we had, my Greek mother had a real eye for design and sourced a lot of textiles from local markets. This influenced me.
What inspires you in your work?
I love antique Japanese textiles for their exquisite design, artist Mark Rothko for his colours and Andy Goldsworthy as his work is beautiful and clever. But my biggest inspiration comes from nature and the seasons, particularly autumn. Every day the same tree can look different. When I was growing up, my mother was a keen gardener and taught me the names of plant species. I look in awe at how nature can beat any designer hands down.
So would you say you're a country girl?
The irony is that I'm not a country girl at all. I've always grown up in cities. I think the contrast of going to the country makes me more visually aware of it. You have to have dark to see the light! My parents live in rural Greece and I go there four times a year and am always discovering new plant species to use in my designs.
What is your favourite personal design?
My Burnet design, with its sunset colour palette of orange and red. I think it works on everything - upholstered furniture, bedlinen etc. It's a design that came about naturally – I think the more you have to engineer a design, the less successful it is.
What has been the most exciting project you've worked on?
I had a lovely commission to do a commemorative scarf for Liberty's 125th year anniversary. I've had quite a few private commissions such as designing a range of cushions, lampshades and throws for the W Hotels chain in the US too.
I was also commissioned to do the bedlinen for Big Brother 2009. We kitted the place out my Klimt bedlinen range and created a whole range of neon pink cushions. But at the last minute it all had to be pulled – the Big Brother camera couldn't handle the colours!
What makes a house a home?
I really love homes with a dark interior backdrop, as it makes colours in furnishings show up beautifully. I'm definitely anti-minimalist. I'm in a luxurious position of having access to lots of lovely textiles so I'm super relaxed about design in my home around my children, Leo and Angelica - I don't mind if things get spilled!
What trend should we look out for in the coming months?
Neon finishes will be popular for accessories and feature walls. Neon pink, neon yellow, neon green – these colour liven up the home.
What three products could you not live without?
*I'm obsessed with good-quality bedding – I always spend my money on mattresses, pillows, duvets and bedlinen.
*My Nespresso machine, but I drink far too much coffee.
*L'Occitane's Almond body lotion - its smells like a delicious piece of marzipan!
What's the secret to successful designing?
*Persistence – keep at it no matter what knocks you get.
*Find a style of your own and really develop it.
*Keep tearsheets for inspiration. Everytime I see something - no matter how obscure – I pull it out and keep it. Unfortunately, I'm a bit disorganised and have to go through about 1,000 different bits of paper to find the thing I was looking for, but at least it's there and helps!
Get ready to find out which homewares will be in the ACHICA.com Clarissa Hulse promotion - it starts at 8am on Wed 10th Nov and ends at 8am on Fri 12th Nov.

Adam, Matthias (2005) Integrating research and development: the emergence of rational drug design in the pharmaceutical industry. [Preprint]
Download (278Kb) | Preview
Rational drug design is a method for developing new pharmaceuticals that typically involves the elucidation of fundamental physiological mechanisms. It thus combines the quest for a scientific understanding of natural phenomena with the design of useful technology and hence integrates epistemic and practical aims of research and development. Case studies of the rational design of the cardiovascular drugs propranolol, captopril and losartan provide insights into characteristics and conditions of this integration. Rational drug design became possible in the 1950s when theoretical knowledge of drug-target interaction and experimental drug testing could interlock in cycles of mutual advancement. The integration does not, however, diminish the importance of basic research for pharmaceutical development. Rather, it can be shown that still in the 1990s, linear processes of innovation and the close combination of practical and epistemic work were interdependent.

text: Anyone know of a product that allows me to (temporarily) bring aerobars to a spin class? I did a half-ironman last year and at least 75% of my training was on a spin bike. During the biking section of the race, I wound up getting pretty fatigued in my neck b/c I hadn't practiced being in the prone position enough. Perhaps a little practice during some winter spinning would alleviate this issues. Any thoughts?

Everything was to our liking. Ruth is very nice and helpful, we enjoyed a conversation with her over breakfast. The room was comfortable, the house was beautiful with lots of character. Breakfast was prepared from scratch and delicious! A great escape from St. Louis.
4,2 su ottobre 14, 2013
The bedrooms were quaint in this older house. The whole house had a lot of character, though the bedrooms could have been larger. But it did have a sitting area off of the bedroom. The food was excellent! Everything was homemade and not just simple fare, either. The first morning there was peach and praline french toast. The second day was a strata casserole which was excellent as well. Ruth was very hospitable and we enjoyed conversing with her and the other guests during breakfast. She goes above and beyond to meet the guests needs and requests (of which I had several). Would definitely come back again!!

My husband and I stayed two nights in October, 2012 - our first time in a B&B. We were thrilled with the experience! Ruth is lovely, gracious and warm. The home is beautiful and our room was very comfortable and charming. Breakfast was lavish and delicious and we enjoyed chatting with fellow guests and Ruth (and her cute dog). Because of our experience, we're now B&B fans and will try more.

We stayed in the Lady Edith room for our anniversary last weekend, and we couldn't have been more pleased. This a beautiful and enchanting bed and breakfast, both inside and out. Ruth is wonderful and has thought of EVERYTHING to make the rooms comfortable. We can't wait to stay here again!

Ruth was a great hostess. My wife and I were glad we spent a night here.

We did a last minute getaway and stayed in the Lady Emily Suite. Ruth went above and beyond with our different food requests (such as gluten allergies and vegan requests) The room was very nice. We visited Main St. and fell in love with this community. Lots of different stuff to do, fine dining, live music and lots of cute shops. I would highly suggest stay in St Charles, MO and staying at the Raines Victorian Inn. Thank you Ruth for your great hospitality!

My husband & I stayed over the weekend (10-9 to 10-10) at Raines Victorian Inn. We stayed in the Lady Edith suite. It was perfect for our weekend getaway. Great extra ammenities. Breakfast was delicious! Ruth was great as well. I highly recommend Raines Victorian Inn! :)

We, my sisters and I, traveled to St. Charles to celebrate Mom's 82nd birthday. We go to a different place each year and stay in B&B's. The Raines is beautiful inside and out, and Ruth is terrific. John is a dear. We all loved our stay!

This is an absolutely wonderful experience. The suites are roomy and I live the period decor. the house is gorgeous and we received an elegant, outstanding breakfast. I can't say enough good things about it!

My husband and I celebrated our 20th anniversary here with a 2 night stay and it was outstanding. The rooms were beautiful, food was amazing and the Inn Keeper was very hospitable.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights (one night in the Lady Edith and one night in the Lady Emily). We were exceptionally impressed with the entire experience. Breakfast both mornings was delicious and elegantly presented (I had eggs benedict the first day and a vegetable frittata the next), the rooms were very clean, lovingly decorated and very stately, and Ruth was courteous and kind. She printed off directions for us to get to the Soulard market as well as accompanied any requests for breakfast. She was the perfect hostess. My favorite room was probably the Lady Edith just because the bathroom and tub are spectacular. Thanks to Ruth for a wonderful weekend - this was the perfect starting off point for us to get into the city and explore. We'll definitely be back. And yes, the coffee cake is divine!

My husband and I stayed at this B&B for one night as a getaway from our normal life. I looked online at all the websites for the best deal with all the amenties I wanted. Raines met all my expectations and was so reasonably priced. We stayed in Lady Edith's room which was cozy but with a large bathroom and large jacuzzi tub. The bathroom was very clean and the furnishings were lovely. Bed was comfortable except for the pillows which I prefer thicker ones. Ruth was very hospitable and knowledgeable of the area. Breakfast was delicious and very filling. We had waffles, bacon, and potatoes. We would definitely return again! Look no further for quality and exceptional value!
5 su settembre 01, 2008
My wife and I stayed were looking for a quiet place to relax and take a "in town vacation", and we picked this beautiful B&B on a whim - and we could not have made a better choice! The unassuming exterior of the home reveals a stately and elegant turn of the century interior, which is wonderfully appointed and spotless to boot! The rooms are very comfortable and very well furnished with loads of extras, and Ruth's breakfast is NOT to be missed! Be sure to ask for some of her coffee cake!

My wife and I stayed one night at the Inn for our anniversary over the weekend. We stayed in the Sir James Suite. The room was excellent and well decorated with period pieces. The bath was not in the room but we had the only access to it. It was okay. All the other rooms had bathrooms within their suites. Breakfast was delightful and served on period china. The innkeeper, Ruth, was extremely friendly and spent alot of time with us telling stories. She even recommended a place for dinner and offered a coupon for a free meal. That was at Vivian's Vineyard - a delicious meal to boot! Overall a very pleasant stay. The Inn is spectacular and a return trip is in the future!! Thanks for a wonderful experience!!!!

My wife and I spent two nights at Raines Victorian Inn and had a very relaxing and enjoyable "get a way". We highly recommend it. The hostess (Ruth) was very gracious and made our stay very pleasing. Her breakfast cooking was outstanding and she made sure we were served something to our liking. The house and room was spotless clean and very comfortable. The bed and bedding was as comfortable as the finest luxury hotel. Excellent location in a very quiet and picturesque neighborhood close to St. Charles attractions. The room was priced very affordable. We will come back again.
