Erskine Arms, Conwy
Former Erskine Hotel, Rosehill Street, Conwy
In 1859 the novelist and poet Charlotte Brontë stayed here with her husband, who recalled decades later that it had been a pleasant place to stay. In the 19th century, the building was known at various times as the Erskine Family Hotel or other titles involving "Erskine".
The Erskine family of Colwyn Bay were major landowners in the area. The Dowager Lady Erskine was known for her philanthropy. During hard winter weather in 1864, for example, she gave £20 of coal to the poor of Conwy and Llandrillo-yn-Rhos. She was also the main supporter of the Conway Clothing Club, which helped to provide clothes to poor and elderly people.
The Erskine Hotel was enlarged in the late 19th century. It has an unusual acute-angled corner where the northern gable joins the frontage.
Mr R Roberts, landlord of the Erskine Hotel, was one of the first people to fall foul of the Welsh Sunday Closing Act 1881, which outlawed the sale of alcohol on Sundays to anyone except travellers who had journeyed more than a certain distance before stopping at a hostelry. In September 1881 Mr Roberts was fined £5 after police officer Williams discovered a couple of drunks at the Erskine who did not appear to be genuine travellers.
In 1897 the Canadian Government appointed an agent for Wales, Mr Griffith, whose address was the Erskine Arms Hotel. His job was to inform potential emigrants of the "advantages offered by the different Provinces of Canada". He hailed from Bangor and had lived in Canada for 15 years.
The Erskine Hotel kept its own stables into the early 20th century, when it would supply horses to pull Conwy's new fire engine as required. Horse sales were often held in the Erskine Hotel yard. In 1907, buyers travelled from as far afield as the Midlands to buy some of the 55 "useful harness horses and cobs" which were for sale. Horse-drawn vehicles and harnesses also featured in the sales. The Conway Horse Show Society held its committee meetings and dinners at the Erskine.
During a livestock fair in 1899, a young heifer wandered into the hotel, walked around the billiard table and even climbed the stairs to the first landing before being shooed out!
The building was a pub called the Malt Loaf for many years until it was fully refurbished in 2016 and renamed the Erskine Arms.

text: AlexTheGrape 987 Report post Posted June 14, 2017 It has been over a week since I last posted, wow! I've been studying hardcore since then, as my end of semester exams start in half a week now.Today has been an average day of studying. I managed to do approximately 10 hours of studying today which is the best I've done, however the quality of the work done hasn't been the best. I've been doing huge chunks of work and become quite unproductive towards the end of it. Tomorrow I'll make sure to just do 1 hour sessions, which involve packing up and moving to another building to work between sessions, as this activity has kept me more alert and able to focus when I do. I'll need to work tomorrow evening so I'll likely skip my workout. I've had some gaming cravings recently because I'm so bored a lot of the time, but I think it is just something that comes along with studying so many hours with few and small breaks.I'm looking forward to doing a skiing trip in a couple weeks time, it should be great fun!As soon as my exams are over I think I want to start a few things like cooking fancy meals, but also getting back into programming and photography.I'm grateful for there being so many computers around university.I'm grateful for the amazing lunches I've been able to make myself recently.I'm grateful for the time I have to study.

At which campus can I study this program?
Requirements for an undergraduate certificate may be completed at any campus location offering the specified courses for the certificate.
Program Description
This certificate is designed to provide students with an overview of issues concerning diversity. Students will take one foundational class and additional courses examining women, gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, and religion.
What is Diversity Studies?
Diversity Studies is an interdisciplinary academic field that is interested in examining social differences defined by culturally constructed categories of race, class, gender, religion, ethnicity, age, diversity, and other markers of identity. Diversity Studies however tends to focus on our own lived experiences, and how our perception of these markers influences personal and cultural interactions – especially our own! It investigates systems of power that organize our schools, workplaces, healthcare systems, criminal justice system, and media, many of them invisible to us. Around the globe those systems of power are organized very differently, sometimes in fundamental ways. Diversity Studies approaches differences intersectionally to expose, critique, and confront historical and contemporary sources of social and cultural conflict. This does not mean "looking past" differences; rather, looking straight at them to find the common ground and empathy that can make us better citizens.
You Might Like This Program If...
- You want to better understand people from different backgrounds.
- You are interested in impacting social problems.
- You want to stretch your own perspectives and actions.
Program Requirements
To earn an undergraduate certificate in Diversity Studies, a minimum of 12 credits is required, three of which must be at the 400-level.
A course grade of C or higher is required.
|Prescribed Courses
|Prescribed Courses: Require a grade of C or better
|Select 3 credits of the following:
|American Popular Culture and Folklife
|Cross-Cultural Psychology
|Social Problems
|Introduction to Women's Studies

No Prerequisites Required.
Academic Advising
The objectives of the university's academic advising program are to help advisees identify and achieve their academic goals, to promote their intellectual discovery, and to encourage students to take advantage of both in-and out-of class educational opportunities in order that they become self-directed learners and decision makers.
Both advisers and advisees share responsibility for making the advising relationship succeed. By encouraging their advisees to become engaged in their education, to meet their educational goals, and to develop the habit of learning, advisers assume a significant educational role. The advisee's unit of enrollment will provide each advisee with a primary academic adviser, the information needed to plan the chosen program of study, and referrals to other specialized resources.

Property managers use software to automate the process of finding, screening, and approving tenants. There are a number of property management software tools on the market – Appfolio and Buildium are a few of the more popular ones.
With these tools, a property manager simply plugs in the info about your property, uploads some photos, and the software will syndicate your rental listing to major real estate sites like Trulia, Zillow, etc.
You, of course, can subscribe to these tools as well, and do this yourself. I recommend Buildium; plans start at just $45/mo.
Now, as you can imagine, people see your listing online, and they start calling. Now you might be thinking, "Well, wouldn't it save me time having a property manager field all those calls instead of taking the calls myself?" Well – yes, but there's a smarter way to handle these inquiries.
Forget Taking Calls & Showing Properties
Among other duties, property managers primarily focus on the following tasks:
FREE Real Estate Investing Checklist. Instant Access.
- Promote rental properties
- Follow up on rental property inquiries
- Show properties
- Screen/approve tenants
- Draft leases
- Handle maintenance requests
I would argue that items 2 & 3 on that list are largely a waste of time if done manually, and more importantly, it slows down the process of getting your properties rented quickly to good, qualified tenants.
The reason is, at least in my experience, most inquiries are from looky-loos who aren't serious and won't qualify anyway.
On top of that, people seem to have a less-than-positive view of property managers and other real estate professionals. They tend to put us in the same bucket as used car salesmen and politicians, so you can expect that getting stood up at showing appointments will be all-too-common.
Now, you might be thinking, "So what? It's the property manager wasting their time not mine." True, but the busier they are doing time-wasting activities, the slower they will be at handling time-worthy activities like actually answering their phone when a qualified prospect calls. So, what's the solution? Software.
Software Automation: Your New Best Friend
You can provide immediate responses to rental inquiries and even automate property showings by doing two things: 1) purchase a lockbox from Rently (I'll explain Rently in a minute), and 2) purchase a vanity number that routes calls to an auto-attendant. I'll elaborate.
What Is Rently?
I heard about Rently early on when I first started self-managing my rentals, and I've been a satisfied client ever since.
Simply put – Rently allows people to self-access your properties. What?! Yep – they enter your properties by themselves, unattended. I know it sounds crazy, but read my post on Rently before you jettison any credibility I may have with you.
So, as I mention in my Rently post, when people respond to your listings online, Rently will send them an automated email with information on how to view the property themselves.
They can also receive self-showing instructions from your auto-attendant or from your website (if you have a website). Well, what about the phone calls? That's where the vanity number comes in.
What Are Vanity Numbers?
Vanity numbers are typically used to help people remember your business (and your number). 1-800-FLOWERS would be an example.
For your purposes, though, a vanity number will route the caller to an auto-attendant that answers questions, provides additional property information, and also provides an option to speak with someone (you) if the caller still needs help.
This saves you an enormous amount of time since most people will get what they need without you having to speak with them. Vanity numbers can be purchased inexpensively from companies like RingCentral.
Let's summarize all this into one word: AUTOMATION. The promotion of your rental is automated, responding to prospects is automated, answering of inbound calls is automated, and property showings are automated.
The beauty here is you save a huge amount of time, and prospective tenants get the information they want immediately, and they can schedule to view your property at their convenience.
It's a win for everyone, and this will lead to you getting higher quality tenants faster than what a property manager would accomplish manually.
In addition to the time wasted by doing these tasks manually, property managers also got a bunch of other clients to serve – sorry you're not the only one.

This summer, try to get lost in a deserted island, where there are no modern facilities, in return you will enjoy nature with all the purest and freshest things. There is such a place called Cu Lao Cau or Cau Island.
Cau island is in Lien Huong Town, Tuy Phong District, Binh Thuan Province. The reason why this place is lesser-known by many people is that : there are not many tourist services and it is quite difficult to get to the island. However, once you arrive at Cau Island, you will not believe in your eyes with the clear sea water here.
Cau island is about 270km away deom Saigon, so the best option is to take the bus from Mien Dong Bus Station or De Tham. You will take 5 hours in the car, so you should book the car on Friday evening, and arrive in Tuy Phong at 5:00 am. Get out from the bus at Lien Huong crossroads, take a Mai Linh taxi to Lien Huong fishing port, where the boat departs. Here, you can go to the market to buy more food to eat on the island and take time for breakfast.
From the mainland to the island, it is only about 11 km but you will take over an hour to get to the island. The best boat at this moment, which is equipped with the full lifeboat carrying passengers to the island, is Song En with the price of 250,000 VND (10 USD)/ passenger / round trip. If you go in a big group, you should make a phone call in advance to Mr. Quang the ship owner to schedule a precise trip. However, before departure it is possible that land border guards will not allow boat to leave. All you have to do is wait patiently.
There are 3 things on the island you need to remember is Tu's restaurant, border guard station and snake. Mr. Tu's restaurant is the only restaurant on the island. You can order rice here at 120,000 VND (4.8 USD)/ person with 4 main dishes, if you want to eat more seafood you have to book in advance because it is not available in the island. Everything must be transported from the mainland. The shop sells drinking water and fresh water for bathing. There are also tent rentals for those who want to stay overnight.
When you come to Cau Island, you will be immersed in a true sea paradise: pristine and beautiful amazingly. The crystal clear water along with the stone making many interesting shapes. The island is not large, you just need a walk to explore all of the island. Around the island are consecutive green beaches, every beach is so attractive that you just want to jump down to soak in the water as long as possible.
The east of Cau Island is a hill covered with low grass and huge rocks piled on top of each other. Contrary to the beach on the other side with gentle wave, this side is impressive with strong waves beating into the stone all day long, forming a magnificent scene. This is also a good place to camp overnight, while catching the wind you can also enjoy the most beautiful sunrise on the island.
However, you should choose large places, avoid the bushes because you may encounter snakes. When the sun goes down to the sea, when the sky shines on you with the glitter of millions of stars, enjoy it with all your senses.
Cu Lao Cau has no electricity, no internet, everything is still new. Due to the island's management of the border guards, all activities must be reported in advance and need authorization, including camping overnight. Also, whether day or night, Cau Island is beautiful in a very special way.

Klein + Hummel O 300 D 3-Way Active Studio Monitors
Klein + Hummel have been making speakers in Germany for about 60 years. They have a solid reputation for making high quality products and the subject of this review supports and continues to bolster that reputation.
I've had some opportunities over the past few years to work in rooms that had excellent monitors (Genelec 1032AM, Tannoy Eclipse, Dynaudio AIR 15, and so on) but this is my first experience with the Klein + Hummel product line. When I've worked with really great monitors, it's always been on the clock so I've never had the time to fool around using a signal generator or pulling out a huge variety of program material to test them with. The reality is that speakers in this price range have always been a bit beyond my budget, so the chance to get to own them for even a super short time makes me feel pretty lucky.
The O 300 D is a relatively compact 3-way studio monitor — only 10" x 15" x 11.5" and weighing 32 pounds. The 8" polypropylene woofer takes up most of the real estate on the face with a 3" fabric dome midrange speaker and a 1" fabric dome titanium tweeter nestled into the remaining space. The red K + H logo badge lights up when the main power is switched on and acts as an overload light and flashes with any clipping.
Splitting the frequency range across three drivers makes less work for each one thereby freeing each one to only do what it is best at. The low-end driver has no reason to generate mids, for example, so there will be less resonances, harmonics, and standing waves in the cabinet, permitting better accuracy, or so the theory goes. The cabinet uses a new material called Low Resonance Integral Molding (LRIM) that has been shaped into "waveguides" for both the midrange unit and the tweeter to help control dispersion, and allowing the drivers to be mounted in the correct vertical plane for accurate time alignment. The tweeter waveguide disperses wider horizontally rather than vertically to minimize the high frequency reflections from the surface of the console and creates a larger sweet spot.
Each of the drivers is powered by a separate MOSFET amp (with 150 watts for the woofer, and 65 watts each for the mid and tweeter) with built-in protection limiters. The peak SPL from one meter is quoted as 112.8dB with 3% THD, or at 95dB with less than 5% distortion for all frequencies above 100Hz. The overall frequency response is stated as 40Hz to 20kHz, and by all accounts extremely flat. The points where the frequencies cross over for each are set at 650Hz and 3.3kHz in 24dB/octave slopes with a subsonic filter that rolls off 6dB/octave below 30Hz. With a signal generator issuing a –10dB sine wave, I got to a lovely 28Hz before hearing the roll off and then it rolled off quickly.
The O 300 D has an analog input via a transformer balanced line level into an XLR connector (no TRS input), and digital signals can be connected using the same XLR as the analog in for AES/EBU or via BNC connector in either unbalanced AES3id or S/PDIF. The D/A is a 24-bit converter that takes up to 96kHz sampling rate.
Like many active speakers these days, there is a full range of room correction EQ features. These are really small, screwdriver-adjustable pots. I tried to get my fingernail in one of them, but they are too recessed. These controls will help compensate for near-wall placement, or corner-near-ceiling placement, or in the middle of the room with 3dB attenuated increments to the low's output — plus a broad midrange (50Hz to 1kHz) control to attenuate 0 to 6dB, and finally a high frequency level control that goes from a +1dB to –2dB around 2kHz and up.
One interesting thing on the rear panel is a 7-pin XLR connector that is used to bypass all the crossover, EQ, and protection circuitry so that a K+H controller (the Pro C28) can take care of all those controls digitally. This unit provides much more sophisticated control over all the input signal handling, digital conversion, etcetera. The Pro C28 runs about $5,000 — we didn't get one to play with for this review.
After putting the speakers through a recommended burn-in period (pink noise @ 85dB for 72 hours), I collected a large collection of mixes from many disparate sessions — from Reason-y blip-hop to string quartets, tweaked out post-rock to Meters-esque funk, willowy folk bliss to angry chaotic skronk — and prepared for my initial day with the monitors.
From the very first note of the very first track, I had to scrape my jaw off the floor. These monitors blew me away immediately. They sound huge for such compact boxes. Every track I played was instantly stripped of its hazy outer layers — every track suddenly became much, much more that it was — either in a really good way or in a flaw-ridden, embarrassing way.
The bass came alive with a tight and natural clarity that was not exaggerated in any way. I guess it feels and sounds "right" or truthful. Wide and clear mids — beautiful full-range mids — and at the same time with some of my mixes: horrendous! . . . but vivid and 3 dimensional. The highs are seamlessly integrated and are not hyped at all. The entire spectrum is ultimately represented and absolutely pleasant to listen to.
Every sound issued from the K + H O 300 D's took on a new life or afforded me a new perspective on that sound. You have to hear them for yourself. They are by far the best near-field monitors I've had the pleasure to use.
It's depressing to have to go back to my normal monitors. It always is depressing to get used to something great and then have to give it back. I wish I could afford these things, then I wouldn't have to give them back, but they go for about the same that I paid for my last car. The price is prohibitive. I understand the old adage, "You get what you pay for" but it's still just unfair.

Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla – Going for the impossible - a portrait
After the success of her Deutsche Grammaphon debut which she dedicated to the composer Mieczyslaw Weinberg, Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla discovers works by Lithuanian composer Raminta Šerkšnyté. It is music of transcendent beauty and emotional force that combines mystical experience and outbursts of vibrant energy. To Mirga, working together with Šerkšnyté has special significance and her connection with her music is very personal. What fascinates Gražinyté-Tyla most is the poetic quality and mystery of this composer as well as her personal voice. The album also contains a DVD with a documentary about Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla.
Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla makes Deutsche Grammophon debut with survey of major works by Mieczysław Weinberg in composer's centenary year
- Acclaimed Lithuanian conductor launches her Yellow Label discography with Gidon Kremer, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and Kremerata Baltica
- New album includes Mieczysław Weinberg's Symphony No.21, dedicated to "the victims of the Warsaw Ghetto"
- Gražinytė-Tyla ranks Weinberg among last century's "most important composers"
The Lithuanian conductor Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla launches her new exclusive relationship with Deutsche Grammophon on 3 May 2019 with the release of an album devoted to Mieczysław Weinberg's music. It showcases one of Weinberg's earliest compositions, the Second Symphony for strings of 1946, and the Symphony No.21 "Kaddish", completed in 1991, his haunting memorial to the victims of the Warsaw Ghetto. Kremerata Baltica perform Symphony No.2 and join the CBSO for No.21. The violin solos in the latter work are played by Gidon Kremer. Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra's music director since 2016, is convinced that listeners will be deeply affected by the composer's works, which bear witness not only to the variety of his output but its consistently high artistic quality.
"In my opinion Weinberg's definitely one of the most important composers of the twentieth century," she observes. "We have an enormous amount of works by him. There are twenty-two symphonies, seventeen string quartets, seven operas, music for film and television, circus and theatre. Each of those works has an incredible ability to speak to performers, to listeners. One can only really judge after encountering those works or at least the majority of them, just how important he is as a composer."
Echoing his own life experiences, much of Weinberg's production reveals the influence of some of the most tragic moments in 20th-century history. Born to a Jewish family in Warsaw on 8 December 1919, Weinberg showed early musical talent as a pianist. He was forced to abandon his studies in 1939 when his country was invaded at first by the Nazis, then by Stalin's Red Army. His mother, father and sister were murdered by the Nazis, while most of his extended family also perished in the Holocaust. He found temporary refuge in Belarus, then headed east to Tashkent when Hitler turned against the Soviet Union in 1941. Shostakovich, impressed by his younger contemporary's First Symphony, invited him to Moscow in 1943. Weinberg lived there until his death 53 years later.
The Latvian violinist Gidon Kremer has played a central role in promoting the composer's music. He launched the centenary celebrations this January on tour with his Kremerata Baltica ensemble, a chamber orchestra comprising outstanding young musicians from the Baltic states. When Kremer was appointed as the CBSO's artist-in-residence for 2018-19, he and Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla placed Weinberg at the heart of their programme plans. In an innovative but ultimately hugely successful move, they also decided to bring Kremerata Baltica to Birmingham last November to join forces with the CBSO for the UK premiere of Weinberg's Symphony No.21 and for DG's recording sessions.
"Before the first rehearsal started with both orchestras, we all knew, 'well, this is an experiment and we don't know what it will bring or how it will work'," recalls Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla. The strings of the two orchestras tested the water with a sectional rehearsal. "I have to say that that rehearsal exceeded my expectations … I think the symbiosis was very, very strong, and it felt like we were not just playing the notes: there was the connection to the Baltics and to our shared history, too. We who lived there felt very close to Weinberg's life and fate."
"Maybe the most important quality of Weinberg's music is its humanism," Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla concludes. "Those deep values are so clearly there, values that speak to every human being. From the works I've discovered so far, I think Weinberg's skill is on the level of Bach's. And the content he shares through his music, in every single piece I've performed, touches the deepest parts of my being. I think these qualities deserve huge recognition."
This album is released in collaboration with the Adam Mickiewicz Institute as part of the Polska Music programme and POLSKA 100, the international cultural programme celebrating the centenary of Poland regaining independence.
Supported by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage of the Republic of Poland as part of the multi-annual programme NIEPODLEGŁA 2017-2022.

"Mesmerising and unstoppable" – Observer
Hamburg, 1st February 2019 – Young maestro Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla makes history as she signs to Deutsche Grammophon – home to legendary conductors such as Herbert von Karajan, Leonard Bernstein, Claudio Abbado, Karl Böhm, Pierre Boulez and Carlos Kleiber. The Lithuanian musician, who is Music Director of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, becomes the first female conductor to sign an exclusive long-term contract with the label.
Gražinytė-Tyla will release her debut album in May – a collection of orchestral works by Polish composer Mieczysław Weinberg, whose centenary falls this year. She conducts the combined forces of the CBSO, Kremerata Baltica and violinist Gidon Kremer in Symphony No. 21 "Kaddish" – a major work completed in 1991 and dedicated to the victims of the Warsaw Ghetto. She also directs Kremerata Baltica in the early Symphony No. 2.
Gražinytė-Tyla will go on to present music by her compatriot Raminta Šerkšnytė with the Lithuanian National Symphony Orchestra, Vilnius Municipal Choir and Kremerata Baltica, a project she will follow up with an album of works by British composers with the CBSO as the orchestra celebrates its centenary.
"Deutsche Grammophon was part of my musical upbringing," says Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla. "It's a genuine honour to join DG and to record works that will be new to so many listeners. The music of Mieczysław Weinberg and Raminta Šerkšnytė, a rising star among Lithuanian composers, deserves to reach the widest possible audience. It's very exciting that our partnership will document some of the musical adventures that the fabulous CBSO and I are about to embark on together and will celebrate the orchestra's centenary with an album of landmarks of 20th-century British music. I look forward to this thrilling collaboration with DG and to the musical discoveries we can make together."
Dr Clemens Trautmann, President of Deutsche Grammophon, welcomes the signing. "Mirga is a very special musician, someone whose passion and commitment is communicated with irresistible eloquence. She has made a profound impression with the CBSO, introducing new repertoire and shining new light on works from the symphonic mainstream. I'm sure her first DG recordings will reach out to new audiences and set benchmarks for innovative programming."
Born in Vilnius, Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla is one of today's most exciting young conductors. After early studies in choral conducting and the visual arts in her home city at the National M. K. Čiurlionis School of Art, she went on to study at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Graz, before completing her conducting studies in Bologna, Leipzig and Zurich. Her career breakthrough came in 2012 when she won the prestigious Salzburg Young Conductors Award. In 2013 she was appointed First Kapellmeister at Bern City Theatre, and from 2015 to 2017 was Music Director of the Salzburg Landestheater.
In February 2016 she hit the headlines around the world after she was unanimously chosen to be the new Music Director of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra – taking over the post formerly held by Sir Simon Rattle, Sakari Oramo and Andris Nelsons, just months after making her debut with the orchestra in July 2015. Their partnership has since flourished, with Gražinytė-Tyla praised for her charismatic artistry and innovative repertoire choices.
A Gustavo Dudamel Fellow of the Los Angeles Philharmonic in the 2012-13 season, Gražinytė-Tyla has served as the orchestra's Assistant Conductor for two seasons and, for the 2016-17 season, as its Associate Conductor.
Gražinytė-Tyla's signing to Deutsche Grammophon marks an important
milestone in her career. Her first recording was made at Symphony Hall
Birmingham during the CBSO's critically-acclaimed Weinberg Weekend
in November 2018, and the album was made with the generous support of the
Adam Mickiewicz Institute. It will be released in May and promises to be an
exciting debut from an artist who never ceases to inspire.

You've seen us tout the utility of Kayak Price Alerts and how they can help you find cheap airfare. Today I'm going to teach you how to use Google Flights to do the same thing, and even take it a few steps further.
Right now the Barclaycard Arrival Plus offers 50,000 bonus Arrival miles after spending $3,000 on it in the first 90 days. The bonus + the Arrival miles you'll earn for meeting the minimum spending requirement are worth more than $560. You can redeem the miles to offset any travel expense greater than $100 inside your Barclaycard account within 120 days of the purchase.
Credit card links have been removed from posts and added to the menu bar at the top of every page of MileValue under the heading Top Travel Credit Cards.
Arrival miles can be redeemed for any travel expense like any flight (no blackouts), taxes and fees on award tickets, hotels, Airbnb, car rentals, cruises, and more. They're a great way to diversify your rewards collection and fill in the gaps for cheap cash flights when you can't otherwise get enough value out of redeeming region or distance based miles.
In light of this elevated sign up offer, I figured now would be a good opportunity to add another weapon to your arsenal of cheap flight finding skills.
There are two different ways to utilize Google Flights' price tracking tool:
- To track the price of a flight specified by cabin, origin, destination, and dates, but without regard to flight times, number of stops, or carrier. For easy reference, let's call this General Price Tracking.
- To track the price of a specific flight, so all criteria are specified (carrier, cabin, origin, destination, dates, flight times, and number of stops). For easy reference, let's call this Specific Price Tracking.
General Price Tracking
Tracking the price of the cheapest ticket only considering cabin, origin, destination, and dates is simple. First input that information on the Google Flights homepage.
Directly above where the search results are listed and below the search boxes is a box that says Track Prices. Toggle the Off/On switch to On…
… and Google will track (daily) the cheapest flight for your desired origin/destination pair, dates, and cabin.
Specific Price Tracking
If you want to track the price movements of a flight specified by all criteria (carrier, cabin, origin, destination, dates, flight times, and number of stops), first input your desired cabin, origin, destination, and dates into the appropriate search boxes.
The outbound search results will be listed first. Click the outbound flight you're interested in tracking (like the American Airlines flight I circled below).
The details of the flight you select will display at the top of the next page you're directed to, above the inbound options. Next click the inbound flight you're interested in tracking.
The following page will display details of both the outbound and inbound flights you selected, along with options to book, track, or share the flights.
Click Track price, and Google will track (daily) the cheapest price for the specific flights.
Checking the Progress of your Price Tracking
You can see the progress of the prices you're tracking multiple ways…
- by clicking the View all link next to Track prices, which appears in a box above the search results from any flight query
- by clicking View tracked prices which appears in the Book, Track, or Share this flight box after selecting specific flights from search results
- by clicking the three stacked lines on the left hand side of the header toolbar (visible at all times when using Google Flights), which opens a drop-down menu where you select Tracked prices
All three actions will take you to the same landing page, which is where you can see the progress of any/all flight prices you're tracking, general or specific. For example, here is the Tracked prices page for the two examples I gave above.
I just started tracking these prices yesterday (one general, one specific), so there aren't many points on the graph yet, but you can still get the gist. Presented in this manner, it's easy to follow patterns in the price history.
I haven't received any yet, but I assume if a price you're tracking changes significantly you will receive an email notification as long as you toggle "Email notifications on" in the top right corner of your Tracked prices page. And if you use Google Now you'll also receive notifications via any Google Now connected device.
Optimizing Travel Dates
The price tracking techniques described above involve picking specific travel dates. But what if you're flexible and want to optimize your trip around the cheapest days to travel? Is there a way to see that so you can track multiple flights on differing outbound/inbound dates or for differing lengths? Yep.
When you click in the calendar search box to set your outbound and inbound dates, a calendar pops up with a price under each day for how much it would cost to start (in the inbound box) or end (in the outbound box) your desired length of a trip.
If you click Flexible dates (to the right of Calendar), a chart will appear with prices for differing travel dates.
And if you click Price graph (to the right of Flexible dates), you'll see a comparison of prices over the course of multiple months, adjustable by both trip length and travel dates.
Bottom Line
Finding cheap airfare is an elemental skill in the miles and points hobby. Use Google Flights price tracking tool to watch for price dips so you can jump at a good deal when you see it. You can even monitor the price of a specific flight if flying a certain carrier or a specific route/time of the day is more important to you than finding the overall cheapest flight, or if you want the ability to compare the price fluctuations of a preferred flight to the cheapest one.
If the cash ticket's cheap enough, sometimes it's not worth redeeming your region or distancesd based miles. That's when credit card points pretending to be miles–like Arrival miles–step in. Redeem them for a fixed value of one cent per mile in the form of retroactive statement credits on any flights (or a bunch of other travel expenses). Right now, it's easy to earn a lot of Arrival miles at once with the sign up bonus from the Barclaycard Arrival Plus. You'll get 56,000 of them for spending $3,000 on the card in three months, worth $560 in travel expenses.

School Board approves music program changes
The Board of Education voted unanimously Wednesday night to restructure the district's music program, but left the door open for future revisions.
Under the new plan, next year the district would:
• cut 1.7 of 11.5 full-time music teacher positions, for an estimated savings of $82,560
• increase fourth- and fifth-grade class sizes from an average of 10 to a range of 18-25
• assign two to three teachers to each elementary school, rather than the current four to five
• expand music instruction, which runs from grades four through 12, to the third grade
• in the fourth and fifth grades, combine winds, brass and percussion courses into a band class, continue to offer strings under the title of "orchestra," and possibly replace a "music exploratory" course, featuring singing and recorder lessons among other things, with chorus
Board members suggested that the staffing reductions, class size increases, assignment of two to three teachers per elementary school, and expansion to third grade are solid changes that will remain in place. But they said the program details for the third-, fourth- and fifth-grade programs are still open to discussion.
Starting next year, third-graders are slated to take an introductory music course once a week, listening to tunes for pitch and rhythm, learning some basic fingering on the recorder and taking a look at various instruments they might pick up in the fourth grade.
Board member John Selawsky suggested Wednesday night that the district add some basic voice training to the third grade program to lay the foundation for the proposed fourth-grade chorus program.
"Voice is the primary and fundamental musical instrument," Selawsky said, arguing for the change.
But the fourth- and fifth-grade chorus offering is still up for debate.
Currently, fourth- and fifth-graders who do not take an instrumental course are in the "music exploratory" class. Board members and administrators say the course is not what it could be.
"It's been seen as a dumping ground," said Suzanne McCulloch, visual and performing arts coordinator for the district, noting that students who drop an instrument, or do not want to play one, gravitate to the course.
McCulloch, who coordinates the music program, said music teachers have written a curriculum for the class, but have not yet implemented it.
McCulloch said the district needs to tighten up and adapt the "exploratory" curriculum for the proposed chorus class, and actually implement that curriculum, if the new course is to be successful.
Board members say they will seek further input from teachers and a board advisory group, the Music Curriculum Committee, before approving the final music restructuring details.
First reading of new board policy
Later in the evening, board member Terry Doran objected to Superintendent Michele Lawrence's plan to dump the board's jumbled policy manual, which is disorganized and out-of-date, and replace it with a new one that includes the basic policies the district must have on file to be in compliance with state law.
Lawrence said the new manual is a bare bones document that the board could shape to its liking over the next two years.
But Doran, the only board member who had read the thick manual thoroughly before Wednesday night, pointed to a series of policies he found objectionable. Doran said they could not possibly be required by state law.
The policies he cited focused on carbonated beverage contracts, advertising in the schools and metal detectors. "Not on my watch," Doran said.
Lawrence was surprised by some of the policies Doran dug up, and thanked him for his thorough reading. Board members plan to read through the document in the coming weeks and suggest revisions before approving the new policy manual.

- NR1H2 is an orphan receptor. NR1H2 binds preferentially to double-stranded oligonucleotide direct repeats having the consensus half-site sequence 5'-AGGTCA-3' and 4-nt spacing (DR-4).The LX receptors (LXRs) were originally identified as orphan members of the nuclear receptor superfamily because their ligands were unknown. Like other receptors in the family, LXRs heterodimerize with retinoid X receptor (see MIM 180245) and bind to specific response elements (LXREs) characterized by direct repeats separated by 4 nucleotides. Two genes, alpha (LXRA, MIM 602423) and beta, are known to encode LXR proteins (Song et al., 1995 [PubMed 7625741]).[supplied by OMIM].

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- PortalPlayer Inc. shares tumbled about 8% in the after-hours session Monday following its weaker-than-expected second-quarter forecast, while shares of Chesapeake Energy Corp. gained ground in active trading after it said its quarterly profit tripled from last year.
The Nasdaq-100 After Hours Indicator, which tracks the evening action of the technology-heavy index's leading shares, fell 0.25 points to finish at 1,686.36.
PortalPlay PLAY, +12.68% fell 7.7% to $10.62, and Chesapeake Energy Corp. CHK, -4.15% rose 1% to $32.38.
PortalPlayer reported first-quarter net earnings of $6.53 million, or 26 cents a share, down 16% from $7.81 million, or 31 cents a share, in the year-ago period. Excluding items, earnings came in at 40 cents a share. Revenue rose to $72.3 million from $44.5 million. Analysts surveyed by Thomson First Call had forecast earnings of 35 cents a share on revenue of $74 million.
PortalPlayer, the chief supplier of chips and related software to Apple Computer's AAPL, +1.11% iPod product line, expects second-quarter per-share results ranging from a loss of 3 cents to a profit of 5 cents, or earnings of 3 cents to 14 cents excluding items, on revenue of $30 million to $40 million. Analysts currently expect a per-share profit of 27 cents on revenue of $61 million.
Chesapeake Energy said its first-quarter net earnings tripled as oil and gas production set a record for the 19th consecutive quarter. See full story.
Research In Motion RIMM (RIM) tacked on 47 cents to $73.50 in light trading after it said it doesn't believe it infringes on Visto Corp. patents and that it will file a legal response to Visto's lawsuit over RIM's BlackBerry wireless email service "in due course." Visto filed suit earlier Monday, alleging infringement of four patents and seeking an injunction and monetary damages.
The suit comes two months after RIM settled a long-running patent lawsuit with NTP Inc. that had threatened to shut down its BlackBerry service in the U.S. NTP holds a minority stake in Visto. RIM added that it doesn't expect its customers to be affected by Visto's complaint and that it is unlikely that any material court proceedings in the case would begin before the middle of 2007.

Chryssanthi took her first dancing steps in her homeland of Greece when she was a small child. The Greeks love dance and music and it is a matter of pride to be a good dancer there. Dancing was always a part of Chryssanthi's family-tradition and all of her family loved to dance the Greek folk dances. One of the dances they loved the most was the Greek Belly Dance called "Tsifteteli". Chryssanthi's grandparents (who originally came from Asia Minor in the Black Sea area) loved to dance the Tsifteteli. (Chryssanthi's grandparents were Greek, but had to leave their homes in Asia Minor because of the population exchange between Greece and Turkey which took place in 1922.) As a result of her grandparents' love of dance, Chryssanthi grew up belly dancing. In additon to belly dancing, she also loved other Greek traditional dances. Chryssanthi was also a member of her high school's folkdance group. Together, they often performed traditional dances for the public.
At the age of 19, Chryssanthi went to Germany to attend the university. It was there that she met her future husband, a wonderful German guy whom she eventually married. While in Germany, Chryssanthi also had her first contact with Arabian belly dancing (known as Raks Sharqi). Chryssanthi had a life changing experience when she listened and danced to the music of an Arabian band which was performing at a university party. Fascinated by the Arabian music, she decided to learn more about Arabian belly dancing. She started by visiting bellydancing classes. When Arabian musicians saw her performing with her first belly dance teacher's group, they were so impressed by her extraordinary talent that they asked her to work with them. Chryssanthi was honoured to do this and as a result she learned much about Arabian music, dance and culture.
Chryssanthi performed as a belly dancer for almost six years while studying at the university. After finishing her M.A. in German language and education, she decided to make bellydancing her sole profession. During the next six years, Chryssanthi worked very intensively as a bellydancing performer and teacher. She danced at numerous events, parties, festivals and restaurants. She also taught many classes.
Chryssanthi's six years as a professional were very intensive and precious but also very tiring. As a result, Chryssanthi decided to take a break from dancing professionally. Though she still loved dance passionately, she wanted to embark on something different. Soon there after she started studying at the university again, this time pursuing Japanese Language and Culture and Cultural Anthropology. She reduced the number of her performances and stopped giving dancing classes. At the same time she studied new dances such as Salsa and Ballroom Dance. In addition she studied Oriental Martial Arts, particularly the Japanese style.Chryssanthi spent one year living and studying in Tokyo, Japan during this time.
Upon completion of her advanced degrees, Chryssanthi decided to return to bellydancing. In 2003, she started performing and teaching belly dancing again thus starting a new brilliant career as a dancer and teacher. Since 2004 Chryssanthi has been operating more and more on an international level. She has taught several workshops and participated many performances in different countries (like Canada, Japan, Italy) and especially in her home country Greece.Chryssanthi became January 2005 member of the CID (International Dance Council), an organization which belongs to UNESCO and she also became January 2008 member of the Free Theater Association in Heidelberg.February 2008 Chryssanthi opened her own dance studio, called "Kinisis". The word "kinisis" is Greek and it means "movement". The studio has become the most important part of her work. She teaches weekly and monthly belly dance courses, as well as workshops and she also invites other teachers for workshops. Another important part of her dancing work is the organization of her "Oriental Flow" as well as other shows, where she performs with her students and her ensemble and which take place in different theaters and others locations in Heidelberg several times a year.www.kinisis.org

Spanish-Language Curriculums for Young Children
The United States is well known as a nation of many languages and ethnic backgrounds, and among the minority languages, Spanish has a strong presence in the United States due to the proximity of Latin America such as Mexico, and preschool Spanish curriculum lessons may be common in some parts of the nation where many minorities speak that language. Preschool Spanish curriculum lessons may be found in Florida and Texas in particular, where large Latin American populations can be found, and preschool Spanish can be offered to teach Anglophone students a second language while their brains are the most receptive to learning another language. Elementary Spanish can also be offered to students for a similar reason, and dual language immersion programs can help today's youth learn the languages of their fellow countrymen and at the same time expand the mind through bilingual lifestyles.

The Top Five Reasons You Should Introduce Your Child To Spanish Before Junior High
Language is one of humanity's greatest achievements…and yet, we take for granted this incredible skill every single day. We use language to communicate our innermost feelings and desires. We use language to help keep roads safe as we drive to work or school. We use language to relish in the art of creation. All in all, language is pretty darn incredible. When the world is only becoming more globalized by the day, you give your child the best possible chance at success when you offer them a better means of access. Learning a second language (or third language!) is proven to encourage a smarter, happier and more social kid.

Out of stock
Today we are excited to offer for sale a rare 19th century British/Canadian militia leather and brass belt! This handsome and stately belt features a finely crafted brass buckle. The buckle, in the spoon and locket style, features a center medallion with the royal British crown. The belt was most likely used by a 19th century Canada Militia/Victoria Rifles general service voluntary officer. The Victoria Rifles of Canada was an infantry regiment of the Canadian Army that originated in Montreal, Quebec, on 22 January 1862, as The 3rd Battalion Volunteer Militia Rifles Canada. The regiment went through several changes of designation throughout its history. It was reduced to nil strength and transferred to the Supplementary Order of Battle on 5 March 1965. The stately brass buckle is attached to the original brown leather belt which features 18 notches. The set presents well, with wear and patina commensurate with age and type of use. Brass buckle is in very good antique condition, with wear/scuffing, tarnishing and patina commensurate with age. The leather belt is in fair condition, with wear/scuffing, cracking and peeling and minor losses commensurate with age; the stitching at one end of belt is undone. This is a great opportunity to own a rare and all-original period item from Canadian military history! This beautiful belt will make a fine addition to any Canadian or British Empire military collection. Fresh to the market!
