My daughter and I leave for Paris tomorrow. I have some questions regarding tipping and although I read other reviews I am still a little confused.
I won the trip and was advised by the travel agent to tip the driver picking us up at the airport about $33 Euro and the one that brings us back $29 E. The reason for the higher amount is that he will come into the airport to meet us. We will also be picked up for a dinner one night and I was advised to tip $14.50 E each way. Does this sound correct?
The other question is that my daughter researched what we will be doing the 5 days we are there. One day there is a 3 hour foot tour which there is no charge but you tip at the end if you feel inclined to do so. What is a proper tip?
Last question, a friend gave us a name of someone (their personal friend) that does tours and she is taking us around on Thurs. She is not charging but we would like to tip her after we are done. What is appropriate.
Thank you for your help everyone

Tipping in Paris
My daughter and I leave for Paris tomorrow. I have some questions regarding tipping and although I read other reviews I am still a little confused.
Report Abuse
Is this a private driver? If so, the price should be the price, with no tip. If it's a taxi (and that would always be a better idea, to begin with), you might round up a euro or two or three. No one can advise you of what to tip for a trip out to dinner ought or ought not to be. Where are you going out to dinner in relation to your hotel? Will the driver wait while you dine? At any rate, a private driver shouldn't be necessary for going out to dinner.
Even if this driver is part of the package that you won, given what you are being quoted for suggested tips, you might as well ditch the driver and arrange your own transportation, as it will be more reliable and could be cheaper.
For free tours, I should think, depending on how long (and how good) the tours are, maybe 10 euros.
Report Abuse
Yipes! Those suggested tips are just crazy! A 5 Euro tip to the driver would be very generous, 33 Euro is simply nuts. Would you tip a driver in the US 50% of the cost of the trip?
Report Abuse
Thank you for the response StCirq. The drivers at the airport and to the restaurant are private. The travel agency actually provided me with the money to tip the drivers. I have vouchers for the cost of the trip but the tip was not included.
The dinner is not to a fancy place but is part of the trip too. It is to the original Cosi. I was the national winner of the Cosi contest.
Thank you for the info on the tours.
Report Abuse
It seems obvious to me that you should use the services indicated and give each of the drivers the amount that was given to you for them. That was probably part of the promotional package and you should continue to "play the game." I wouldn't add anything unless the service is super-fantastic.
Can't speak to the rest of this but will monitor as we plan to be in France in the near future.
Report Abuse
Well, heck, if they gave you the money, fork it over. Just please don't arrive in Paris thinking that there is anything even remotely normal about that sort of tipping. You don't tip in restaurants or taxis or cafés or bars or anywhere, other than maybe to round up, as I said, a euro or two. So once you've spent all that free money, you can stop the tipping.
Report Abuse
Those tips are horrifying, but I totally agree with StCirq. Normally a taxi driver is tipped less that 1 euro if at all unless he offers to carry your luggage up three flights of stairs. Private chauffeurs would normally not be tipped at all if their services have already been remunerated.
In any case, please do not think that people in Paris normally get around the city with such services. We take the metro and generally find it more than adequate, as well as often faster than being driven somewhere.
Report Abuse
Is the person with the free tour a friend of friend? If so - no tip - a dinner or drinks instead. If it is a commercial relationship - then I would do 20 euros.
Report Abuse
Congratulations! Where is the location of the original Cosi?
We went to the Cosi location at 54 Rue de Seine (near the Rue de Buci market) two weeks ago, and enjoyed their salad, soup, especially the hot thin bread just out of the oven.
Report Abuse
Why ask if you were given the money? But congratulations. And pay attention to the other advice about tipping--it's included
Report Abuse
For the 3 hour "free" walking tour you should tip the same amount as if you paid for the tour - E10 to E12 per person. The guides only make money from tips and I've read that they have to pay the tour company for each person on the tour. I have no first-hand knowledge of this but it seems reasonable.
Report Abuse
Thanks everyone. Just to clarify I did plan to give the tips that were suggested by the travel agency since they gave me the money. I was not sure if for private drivers I should be giving more. From all of the replies I understand the answer is no. For Reading54 will have to check on the location. I am not sure and I have everything packed away right now. I appreciate the info on the tour guides. I am not sure where my daughter found the info on the 3 hour tour. The other person taking us around is a personal friend on my daughters friend. I like the suggestion of buying dinner. I just don't want to offend anyone and I don't want to appear stupid as some of the other posts suggested on the way Americans tip. I really appreciate all of your comments.

The christmas season has been getting me down. We aren't christian or jewish, and don't really have a winter holiday. Are there any other mama's in the same boat? DH doesn't understand why I'm insisting on secret santa or getting a gift for my son. At the same time, he has no idea what it is to grow up in the midst of all this holiday madness that you aren't really a part of.
Any one else in the same boat?
Texmati-- Knitter, Hindu, vegetarian, WOHM. Wife to superdad and mom to DS 24 months, and DD 8 months! .
Erm this is the reason my in-laws did Christmas with my DH, and we do it with our children now. DH's Dad is Hindu, and DH was raised fairly loosely Hindu, and they felt bad that he didn't have a holiday during this time of year, so they did Christmas. A tree, a big meal and presents, no religious stuff, but the general family and secular part of the holiday. Which is what we do too, though we could just do Hanukkah since I am Jewish.
It is tough being different this time of year and that even include being Jewish, everything is focused on Christmas and gift giving, and if your family doesn't participate in some way you feel like you don't really belong and you worry about your children feeling like they aren't getting gifts and feeling left out of what the rest of the nation is doing.

Greek main opposition party calls for early general election
May 26, 2014 - 17:05 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Greece's main opposition party has formally requested an early general election after winning vote for the European Parliament, arguing that the country's conservative government now lacks the legitimacy to implement reforms related to international bailouts, the Associated Press reported.
Alexis Tsipras, leader of the left-wing Syriza party, visited Greece's president Monday, May 26, to make the request "to restore the democratic order in the country."
Tsipras has vowed to cancel bailout agreements that rescued Greece from bankruptcy but also imposed harsh austerity measures.
With just over 99 percent of votes voted, Syriza leads with 26.6 percent of the vote, while center-right coalition government leader New Democracy received 22.71 percent.
The government, midway through its four-year term, late on Sunday ruled out calling an early election.

Whoever pus this thing together should really be ashamed of themselves. Seriously, they should really attempt to get their stuff together and get this on a more professional release schedule.

Plus we get to learn some new things like: The proper [...]
Delta Redux: A Voyager Rewatch: Tattoo
Sometimes an episode means well. It's hard to criticize something that has its heart in the right place. Still, that can only carry an episode so far. Its flaws, if there are many, will overpower good intentions and leave just a bit of a mess. So it is with Tattoo, a well-meaning failure. Tattoo wants to add a much needed backstory for Chakotay, giving him some depth and motivation. It wants to explain his spiritual [...]

The Coming of the Man-Thing! Yep, you read that right. Just don't think about it too much. This episode we explore the origin of the Man-Thing from Savage Tales #1. Its an adult-oriented take on the swamp-based monster. Its got it all: semi-naked women, scientists with questionable ethics and of course random injections with untested drugs...in other words, the 70s. Hope you enjoy and be sure to leave a comment or send a message to [...]

And the idea of trudging through 5 more seasons after this [...]

Journal of Pest Science
Journal of Pest Science publishes high-quality papers on all aspects of pest science in agriculture, horticulture (including viticulture), forestry, urban pests, and stored products research, including health and safety issues.
Journal of Pest Science reports on advances in control of pests and animal vectors of diseases, the biology, ethology and ecology of pests and their antagonists, and the use of other beneficial organisms in pest control. The journal covers all noxious or damaging groups of animals, including arthropods, nematodes, molluscs, and vertebrates.
Journal of Pest Science devotes special attention to emerging and innovative pest control strategies, including the side effects of such approaches on non-target organisms, for example natural enemies and pollinators, and the implementation of these strategies in integrated pest management.
Journal of Pest Science also publishes papers on the management of agro- and forest ecosystems where this is relevant to pest control. Papers on important methodological developments relevant for pest control will be considered as well.
Moreover, the journal welcomes Rapid Communications which are shorter papers on pressing topics in pest control which are of broad interest, as for example findings on newly establishing or invading pests of major crops. These articles will be fast-tracked, to rapidly provide scientists and pest control practitioners with the latest information.
Review papers are usually invited from the editorial board but proposals for review papers can be sent to the Journal of Pest Science Reviews Editor. The journal also considers Commentaries on published papers, principally papers which have been published in Journal of Pest Science.
For more information please read "Editorial 2012: shaping the profile of Journal of Pest Science", J Pest Sci (2012) 85:1–3.
We aim to provide rapid publication and speedy responses to authors, with all papers being reviewed by independent referees.

FSF Moves to Greater Openness with Free Software Directory Relaunch
Off the Beat: Bruce Byfield's Blog
Over the last few years, the Free Software Foundation (FSF) has tried to become more open in its operations. The largest of the efforts in this direction is probably the LibrePlanet network and annual conference. But today, the FSF announced another effort: the relaunching of its Free Software Directory, with a redesign that makes it easier for people to contribute. Although what is implemented falls short of complete openness, it at least shows the FSF is at least trying to involve supporters more.
As the news release explains, the Directory has existed for over a decade. With some 6500 applications, the Directory is a thorough but far from complete list. In the past, part of the reason for its incompleteness has been the slowness of the submission process: to add an entry to the Directory, you had to submit an email that would checked and perhaps supplemented by the FSF's staff members when they had the time.
For almost a year, the FSF staff have been working to modernize the Directory. Now, the new Directory is based on MediaWiki, with Semantic MediaWiki and Semantic Forms extensions, and anyone with an FSF web account can submit additions -- although the instructions and the form, with its forty information fields (only some of which, mercifully, are required) might be a bar for some potential contributors, at least at first.
These submissions will not be indexed in search engines or in the local site search, according to John Sullivan, executive director of the FSF "because doing that would mean presenting users with potentially nonfree software." However, potentially, submissions will be more ordered because of the structure in the submission form, and therefore -- with any luck, quicker to approve.
Sullivan explains that the FSF considered allowing anybody to edit via MediaWiki's Flagged Revisions extension. Unfortunately, "this extension turned out to not be compatible with other extensions more important to our purposes." However, he adds, that more public accessibility remains "a possibility for the future."
Sullivan also hopes for more interactivity with the Directory in the future. "For example, what if users made their own lists of favorite free software, on the wiki? What if some people did the work to tag entries with properties indicating that certain free programs are suitable replacements for popular nonfree programs? What if properties were created for various features to enable useful dynamically-generated comparison tables between different free software programs in the same area? What if blogging software had plugins to automatically link to pages in the Directory when they blog about their favorite free software? What if we had a system for linking paid support providers to these programs? What if it were easy from the Directory pages to make donations to your favorite programs?"
The new Directory also has the advantage of providing accurate summaries of the state of each piece of software listed, as well as revision histories for each entry. However, as someone who has always wanted to see the FSF interacting with supporters more, what interests me most is the frankness with which the re-launch is being made, and the fact that more interactivity is even being considered. Both the implementation and the plans for the directory seem small but hopeful steps in the FSF's evolution, and I hope to see a similar spirit in the FSF in other areas as well.

Jack Bauer rode the race of his life to finish a creditable 10th in the Olympic cycling road race, as his ill New Zealand team-mate Greg Henderson and the powerhouse Great Britain lineup rued what might have been.
Bauer, at his first Olympics, joined a break near the halfway point of the 250km race in warm sunshine in London.
He bravely clung on, battling painful cramps to still be in medal contention down the final stretch on The Mall, before missing out in the bunch sprint for bronze.
Ageless Kazakhstan wonder Alexandr Vinokourov, 39, won gold, beating Colombian Rigoberto Uran Uran in the final sprint after the pair burst clear in the final few kilometres.
Norway's Alexander Kristoff claimed the bronze, 8sec behind in a bunch of 23 riders including Bauer, American Taylor Phinney (fourth) and Australian Stuart O'Grady (sixth).
New Zealand's top hope Henderson withdrew on the fifth of eight laps of the Box Hill circuit after suffering a bad stomach upset, while Great Britain couldn't propel gold medal favourite Mark Cavendish to victory after their four other riders sat at the head of the peloton and didn't respond to the breakaway.
Cavendish finished 29th, alongside top German sprinter Andre Greipel (27th), both 40sec off the pace.
An exhausted Bauer, who will back up in the individual time trial on Wednesday, didn't know Henderson had withdrawn until after he crossed the line.
"I haven't seen him since the halfway point and he mentioned to me that he wasn't feeling flash. We had decided earlier that should some of the bigger nations start sending people up the road then I would try and follow," Bauer said.
"Belgium and Italy did that and I followed [Philippe] Gilbert and [Vincenzo] Nibali with four laps to go and we formed a group of about 12 and reeled in the original break and stayed away by 50sec."
Asked if he still harboured hopes of a medal in the final stages, Bauer said: "Of course you do. But I was really struggling with 20km to go. I just started cramping up really badly and the weather was a bit warmer than I expected. Hydration is always hard and I started cramping pretty bad. I'm happy."
Henderson, riding his first road race at his fifth Olympics, cut a disconsolate figure. The 35-year-old was baffled as to what caused his illness after feeling strong at the start of the race.
"For me it's super upsetting because you have such a high of the Tour de France and perform with distinction there, and then you end on such a low. It's one of those things out of my control," said Henderson, who was one of 34 of the 144-strong field not to finish.
"I just had to stop. I just had bad, bad, bad diarrhoea. Sometimes if you get it during a stage race if it's an easy part of the circuit there's a chance of coming back. But the gas is on with three laps to go and unfortunately that was my race, I knew it was.
"But hats off to Jack. We spoke a couple of laps earlier and he said 'when should I start looking' and I said 'they're going to start attacking soon'. We stuck to our gameplan, I'll look after myself for the sprint and he can start going with moves. Perfect, what an amazing ride."
Linda Villumsen is the solitary New Zealander in the women's road race, starting at 11pm (NZT).

How to Auto-Hide or Disable Command Bar in Windows Vista and 7 Explorer?
Recently an AskVG reader "Nick C" asked following question via e-mail:
Is there a way to hide the 'organize' bar in windows 7 explorer? I can hide everything else, but unlike Vista there isn't an option to hide that bar.
Its not the first time we received this query. Lots of people want to hide the Command Bar aka Folder Band in Windows Vista and 7 Explorer so that they can get more free space in the Explorer window.
Today in this tutorial, we'll tell you how to set the Command Bar auto-hidden in Explorer window. In this way, it'll only appear when you hover your mouse cursor over it as shown in following screenshot:
Auto-Hidden Command Bar aka Folder Band:
To make the Command Bar auto-hidden, you'll have to edit the "Shellstyle.dll" file which is present in Theme directory.
For example, if you are using default Window Aero theme, you'll get the "Shellstyle.dll" file in following directory:
NOTE: If you are using Windows Classic theme, you'll need to edit "Shellstyle.dll" file present in "Windows\System32" folder.
You just need to follow these simple steps to make Command Bar auto-hidden:
1. Open "Shellstyle.dll" file in Resource Hacker.
2. Now go to "UIFILE -> 1 -> 1033".
3. Press <Ctrl>+F or click on "View -> Find Text..." option and type following in "Find what" textbox:
<style resid="FolderBandStyle">
4. It'll go to following line of code:
<style resid="FolderBandStyle">
background="argb(0, 0, 0, 0)"
5. Now add following code after <style resid="FolderBandStyle"> line:
<if mousefocused="false" mousewithin="false"><Element padding="rect(0rp,0rp,0rp,-28rp)"/></if>
So that it'll look as following:
<style resid="FolderBandStyle">
<if mousefocused="false" mousewithin="false"><Element padding="rect(0rp,0rp,0rp,-28rp)"/></if>
background="argb(0, 0, 0, 0)"
PS: To permanently disable or hide Command Bar, add following code after <style resid="FolderBandStyle"> line:
<Element padding="rect(0rp,0rp,0rp,-28rp)"/>
6. Now click on "Compile Script" button.
7. Now save the file at some other location, for example in D: drive.
8. Rename original "Shellstyle.dll" file to "Shellstyle_backup.dll".
9. Now copy your new modified "Shellstyle.dll" file to this folder.
10. Restart your system and after restart Windows will start using your new modified file.
PS: This method will work for all 3rd party themes as well. Simply modify the "Shellstyle.dll" file present in custom theme folder.
NOTE: If you want a ready-made modified "shellstyle.dll" file, you can download it using following link and replace the default file in your system with it. You might need to take ownership of default "shellstyle.dll" file before replacing it.

Hobbit mania erupts in New Zealand for world premiere
November 28, 2012 - 12:47 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Hobbit mania erupted in New Zealand's capital for the world premiere of Peter Jackson's new trilogy, BBC News reports.
The first of the three movies - prequels to the Lord of the Rings trilogy - was shown at Wellington's Embassy Theatre. Stars flew in for the event, which saw Wellington rebranded as "the Middle of Middle Earth".
Tens of thousands of fans - some in costume - gathered around the theatre for the screening. Some camped overnight to secure spots close to the 500m-long red carpet that led to the theatre, which was decorated to look like the entrance to a Hobbit house.
"The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" is the first film of the trilogy, which altogether cost $500m to make and was filmed in New Zealand. The second film is set for release in December 2013 and the third in July 2014.
Oscar-winning director Peter Jackson said it was "emotional and very humbling" to see such a crowd.
Ahead of the screening, the New Zealander said he was nervous about the film's reception.
"Nothing's ever perfect and it never will be; it's a real mistake if you say we're stopping now because we've made the perfect film," he told Radio New Zealand. "You never have and you never will."
Wellington City Council put months of planning and just over NZ$1m ($820,000; £512,000) into preparations for the premiere, Radio New Zealand reported, as did tourism officials looking to boost visitor numbers.
Tony Everitt, Asia manager for Tourism New Zealand, told the BBC he expected tourism revenue to rise by as much as US$400m annually because of the films.
The trilogy has taken more than five years to film and hit a number of obstacles. Filming was delayed for months over funding problems and a row over actors' wages - at one point studio executives suggested moving filming to Britain.
Earlier this week, Jackson also rejected claims from animal rights group Peta that up to 27 animals had died during filming, saying no animals were harmed.
In Wellington, however, crowds turned out for a party. Up to 100,000 people were said to have gathered for the premiere.
Top stories
Gaga shared a gif, possibly from "Perfect Illusion" music video, showing her lying on the green field alongside a man who plays guitar.
The film stars Golden Globe winner Oscar Issac, Academy Award winning actor Christian Bale and Charlotte Le Bon in the lead.
It's been two years since several images offering the first look at Ben Winchell as Max McGrath in "Max Steel" movie were released.
The teaser released for the upcoming installment hints that all six seasons are connected as it features images related to previous seasons.

Lots of good racing going on over the weekend.
Skinny great stuff on the V40 victory! You mentioned Brampton in your report – will you be running it this year?
Pete – Great to see you've worked your way back into PB shape – makes the round trip worth it.
Muddy – Sounds like you are running strongly, bodes well for the mara.
Lit – Nice tune up effort there. Looking goof for Chester.
I had a go at running parkrun at goal 10k pace on Saturday (aiming for 17.59). I was rather impressed with pacing as I ran 17.58 on my watch (and 18.00) official. I was less impressed with how hard it felt.
Morning folks
What's this virtual smackdown?
It's been a bit of a rough few months hence the lack of posting. Running has been ticking along relatively ok though. A couple of recent 5Ks suggest I'm in reasonable if not great shape. Hoping to get the training properly going again now.
Skinny, you might want to consider Nike Lunar Racers. Very light but also well cushioned and a 7mm heel/ toe drop. Certainly fine for 10 milers and HMs. Not sure about marathons though.
ps as you can see despite not posting I am still alive.
Dan well done, sounds like a great experience. Glad to hear you avoided all the problems.
DT - Good news, must have all been pretty alarming.
I had a good run at the 5.67 mile Blaydon race last Thursday. Finished in 32.36 which would translate into a 10k time I'd be very happy with. Slight caveat that the course is net downhill but a promising effort and 18 seconds faster than last year.
Muddy - Sounds like you are beginning to make some good progress. Do you have any plans to race soon?
The fast pack at my club have just started doing track sessions on a Tuesday so I went along last night with the view to doing it weekly. Session of 2K (6.53) followed by 6x400 (75s). Hoping a bit of track work can help squeeze out some improvement.

Survey shines light on voters' beliefs in conspiracy theories
Conspiracy theories are nothing new, but who actually lives life believing them?
Public Policy Polling took a national poll asking that very question.
Voters were asked about 20 conspiracy theories — some well-known and some not so famous — and a surprisingly large amount of voters believed in some type of theory, ranging from Osama bin Laden's death being faked to the existence of lizard people whose goal it is to control the world.
Take this one with a grain of salt.
