text: I ordered a Droid X yesterday and I'm now just waiting for Verizon to get them in stock and I'd like to have a case and screen protectors before it ships. I'd like to get a hard case as they tend to offer better protection against dropping since the force of the phone hitting the ground is transfered to the case and not the phone. I'm wondering what is a good hard case for the Droid X that doesn't cause screen protectors to bubble up (and any screen protectors that you could recommend would be appreciated as well)

The insulation behind the dome has been removed. The ceiling is now bare concrete. The next step is to fix some areas of the concrete dome were water damage has occured. Then, new insulation will be installed. Without the insulation, the room is very echoy.
This is an air duct.
Here, spalling of the concrete has occured. Some rebar is exposed in places.
The control console is currently filled with fans and air ducts.
The electronics rack is covered with visqueen.

A green lawn is a homeowner's dream. Some people use fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides to achieve it. But because of toxic and hazardous chemicals in those treatments, many people are looking for greener methods to get greener lawns. Nontoxic treatments and other "home remedies" can make your lawn the greenest on the block. These home remedies are inexpensive and have been used for years on successful lawns.
Finding out how much and how often your lawn needs to be watered is the first and most important thing you can do to keep your lawn green. Find out how much water your lawn needs by contacting your local county extension office. It's best to give your lawn one thorough soaking or to split the amount into two equal watering sessions. Never water in light applications because it causes the grass to have a shallow and weak root system and encourages crabgrass. The ideal time to water your lawn is between 4 and 8 a.m. The second best time is 8-12 p.m. Don't water during the middle of the day because this causes the grass to burn and turn brown.
You need to fertilize your lawn to keep it green. One of the easiest ways to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers is to return grass clippings to the lawn. Instead of throwing the clippings into a landfill, use a mulching blade on your mower. Clippings contain moisture and valuable nutrients that are good for the lawn and make it green. It also does not increase thatch.
Mowing at the right height and time will also make your grass greener. Never cut off more than 1/3 of the leaf blade at a time. The grass will not be able to support the root system if it's cut shorter. Mow often, preferably when the grass is dry. Mow as high as possible for your type of grass. Sharpen your mower's blade so the grass stays green and uninjured.
Thatch is a tight organic layer of dead and living materials that accumulate above the soil surface. Too much thatch stops water, air and nutrients from getting to the roots. It also encourages insects and disease. Regular raking helps break up thatch and allows nutrients to get to the roots.
Aeration is the removal of soil cores. It alleviates soil compaction, increases rooting and improves lawn health. It also reduces thatch. It is most effective in heavily trafficked areas by sidewalks, sports fields and pet areas. You can use aerating shoes that have spikes on them but renting a machine is one of the best ways to aerate your lawn and help it get green.

It was the first performance of the Royal Giant Social Collective, and I didn't know quite what to expect.
It was an experiment of sorts. A new approach to directing. I wanted to see what would happen if I put two musicians together and asked them to collaborate on a song. With out rehearsing. With out written music and having met each other just moments before the performance.
I only told them the intention and the spirit of the project. And asked that they be truthful to that intention. The result of the project is the above performance by Hassan Farrow and William Aronin.
The result, as you will see, is a stirring and brilliant performance of Wholy Holy. Special thanks to the production team at BRIC studios and our Host Chikori Dae.

Join Us for an Open House!
We're halfway done with summer programming, but our event calendar is still in full swing! It's been a summer packed with pizza nights and chef-led lunches, and we can't wait to celebrate the final month of summer by opening our demonstration site to you! On Thursday, August 3rd from 4-7 p.m., join Urban Roots for our annual Open House! Our talented youth interns have been hard at work creating an Urban Roots Passport, to guide our visitors to our work sites. Our visitors will learn about all of our programming, play games designed by our talented Youth Council, and join in a raffle for a chance to win prizes! We're excited to show off the work we do and show you more about our work with urban farming, parkland restoration, and healthy eating!
Another great draw to our open house: We'll be firing up the Urban Roots Pizza Oven! Our pizza menu this summer has featured flavors from Hmong sausage to roasted beets, so you know we'll come up with something creative and delicious. Our intern chefs will be cooking wood-fired pizzas for our community members to enjoy.
We can't wait for this evening of environmental education with fun to be had by all. See you in a week!
Get a Pi-zza This!
Urban Roots will be hosting our first Urban Pizza Farm! Local chefs and our exceptional youth interns will do a pizza oven take over- creating delicious pizzas made with Urban Roots produce for you to enjoy. The inaugural Urban Pizza Farm will take place on June 29th featuring Chef Yia Vang! Can't make it? Don't worry- we'll have another pizza night on July 20th featuring Les Dames D'Escoffier. This is bound to be a delicious evening celebrating youth, community, and great food.
What's Growing?
Rivoli Bluff Farm is in full swing! Intrepid staff members have been plowing, installing drip irrigation and planting the quarter acre plot. Thanks to our partnership with the Dayton's Bluff Neighborhood Housing Services, we benefitted from a Minnesota Superbowl Legacy Fund of the Minnesota Community Foundation and the hard work of Pentair volunteers who planted 60 fruit trees adjacent to the vegetable crops. Raspberries and other fruit shrubs will soon join the orchard plot. We're excited to be heading into such a fruitful summer!
Another exciting growth opportunity for Urban Roots? This July, look for our newly built 38' x 52' high-tunnel as a pilot project in partnership with the Department of Agriculture. We look forward to increased production for 2017-2018!
What's Cooking?
What's cookin' in the Urban Roots kitchen? Lots of fun, summer activities! This summer, we'll be working with seven chefs from around the Twin Cities- including Rajen Rayan, Beth Dooley, Jenny Breen, Yia Vang of Union Kitchen, Ruhel Islam from Gandhi Mahal, and Robin Asbel. We're excited to be working with these fantastic chefs. Gandi Mahal and chef/owner Ruhel Islam will be giving our Cook Fresh interns a tour of his restaurant, and talk about what it's like to own a restaurant business. Come join us for a Chef-led lunch on Tuesdays this summer! RSVP to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Chef-Led Lunches: Ghandi Mahal
Cook Fresh's summer interns have been busy in the kitchen, learning about produce seasonality, shopping on a budget, and working with chefs Yia Vang and Rajen Rayen, to prepare farm-to-table meals for 60 youth interns and our visiting partners. Last week, Cook Fresh ventured across the river to Minneapolis' Gandhi Mahal restaurant to learn about aquaponics and options for growing food not in season. After the tour, interns painted the Gandhi Mahal rain barrels, brightening them with pollinator flowers and honey bees.
Chef/owner Ruhel Islam of Gandhi Mahal then came to Urban Roots and worked with the interns to create an amazing meal of vegetable curry and apple chaat. Interns added their morning harvest to the table – rhubarb, cilantro, and lettuce, combined with apple, garlic, chili, and some salt to make an incredible chaat! We're so grateful to Ruhel and Andy and all our partners who give their time and talents to our Chef-Led meals!
Cultivating Healthy Eating in the Schoolyard Garden
J J Hill Montessori students got to "eat the rainbow" in their schoolyard garden with the guidance of Urban Roots staff and a great crew of parent volunteers. Under beautiful blue skies, 15 classes of Children's House and E1 learned salad making skills with the spring harvest from their raised bed gardens. Utilizing five stations, students assembled the rainbow salad:
Some made a homemade salad dressing (lemon, orange, honey, olive oil)
Others grated beets or
Chopped rainbow carrots or
Harvested and chopped radishes and
Harvested, washed, and spun lettuce.
The grand finale was a shared salad-picnic on the lawn.
"This is the best salad I ever had!"
Thanks to our partners at J J Hill for inviting us to work with their enthusiastic students!
Just Saying "Hay!" from Urban Roots Staff!
The sky was cloudy but spirits were sunny for our Market Garden Staff Work Day! Market Garden team members Summer, Jaclyne, and Sydney led staff crews to get our garden at First Covenant Church in great shape for the production season. We edged the garden, raised new beds for tomatoes, mulched with a dozen bales of hay, and gave our garlic some love so that production can be better than ever.
The administrative staff enjoyed ditching their dress shoes and getting their hands dirty—it was a great way to remember why Urban Roots began and how we can keep giving back to the community in the future. Urban Roots wouldn't be where we are today without the guidance of our talented staff and our amazing youth interns. Last year's harvest of 10,500 pounds on 1/2 acre of land was so amazing, and with the new Rivoli Bluff site we'll double our land and yield even more healthy food for our community!
Come visit us for a garden tour, or join the fun during our staff Conservation Work Day on June 6th!
Get Involved with the Fun, Food, and Growing!
Staff and interns teamed up with CLUES (Comunidades Latinas Unidas en Servicio) and Macalester College students to put on our best Earth Day ever on April 23rd! Around 45 participants joined us to clean up and completely prep a few of our gardens for spring planting.

Conservation Update: Our Watershed, Wildflowers (bees) and Winners!
It's officially Spring! April has not disappointed us with spring rainfall. The wet weather has given us an ideal opportunity to educate our youth interns and the East Side community on storm drains. We teamed up with the Capital Region Watershed District, and our Conservation interns to promote the Adopt-A-Drain Program, hanging informative signs on 3,000 doors in the Payne-Phalen neighborhood. This program encourages residents to clean their local storm drains to keep trash, debris, and chemicals out of our lakes and rivers.
The rain also means wildflowers are starting to bloom and pollinators are returning! We are excited to host bees at our new Rivoli Bluffs site. We have two bee boxes and both queens are laying eggs, while the workers are making combs and storing nectar and pollen.
Our queen bees aren't the only ones who have been successful this spring. Two of our youth, Chue Kong Pheng Xiong and Gao Joua Lor, who also participated in the Como Park Zoo and Conservatory Youth Engagement Program (YEP), won the Sustainable St. Paul Youth Leadership Award. They surveyed 200 students to better understand why teens don't go outdoors in the winter, and then were successful at getting more teens outside to attend Phalen Freeze Fest this February. They will have another opportunity to encourage more teens to get outdoors this spring with the Take Aim at Summer Fun event May 20th at the DNR Central Region Headquarters from 11-3pm. Participants can try archery, canoeing, fishing, tree climbing and much more!

Angel, fell into a funk, then resolved to become the ultimate desirable woman through implants, rib-removal, and every other cosmetic twist known. The result: a jaw-dropping eyeful, every man's most libidinous dream strutting her stuff on the streets of New York. But Charlie has a brain, too, which is what really makes the Japanese businessmen at Club Kiki, where she is a hostess, take notice. One of them, Hiro, wants to deepen his relationship with Angel, and with sizeable financial incentives and her lukewarm acquiescence, he succeeds. She leaves her East Village loft for his swank East Side pied-Ö-terre but quickly tires of the set-up and fakes an abduction in order to move out and disappear. Hiro tries in vain to see her, then returns to his neglected wife only to find that she has committed suicide. Charlie, meanwhile, boards a former coastal lightship, purchased by another of her Japanese admirers, to realize her ambition of sailing away from her troubles--although the ship is headed for Tokyo to become a floating casino, managed by, of all people, her ex. The titillations of travel give way to despair when the trip is over, and a botched suicide attempt prefigures Charlie's worse end, as she recovers only to be abused and poisoned by an avenging Hiro. No lack of come-on details here but also little narrative consistency as competing voices and plot twists make for an erratic multicultural mess.

Hilton Worldwide Announces Agreement For Hilton Awassa Resort & Spa, Ethiopia
Construction of $42million project begins this year marking more than 50 years of Hilton in Africa; Hospitality leader now features largest number of rooms under construction across the continent.
ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia & McLean, Va – As the hospitality industry converges on Addis Ababa for the African Hotel Investment Forum 2015 (AHIF), Hilton Worldwide today announced the signing of a management agreement with Sunshine Business PLC for the upscale Hilton Awassa Resort & Spa, Ethiopia which is expected to begin welcoming guests in 2020.

If you hate Adolph Frump as much as we do, then jump into It's Even Worse Than You Think: What the Trump Administration is Doing to America (Simon & Schuster, $28), David Cay Johnston's examination of the Frump Administration's first 100 days and the "termites" that are being appointed to destroy existing government policy and agencies from within–and what that means for the lives of all Americans in terms of taxes, employment, health care, the environment, immigration, education, foreign policy, trade, and other crucial issues.
No working journalist knows Frump better than Johnston, who first met it in 1988 and has tracked it ever since. When Frump announced his campaign in June 2015, Johnston was the first national journalist to write about a potential Frump presidency. More recently, Johnston was the journalist who received a copy of Frump's tax return in the mail, as revealed on Rachel Maddow's show. Johnston takes a close look at what the mainstream press stopped covering years ago: the workings of the federal government agencies and how that touches the lives of all Americans, from our wallets to our health care to our safety. He also provides unique insight about how our lives are affected by many actions that the new administration quietly approves without drawing the attention of the Washington press corps. This book is essential reading for all Americans.

Originally published in the Black Diamond Bulletin, Spring 2011
By Ken Jensen
The first thing you notice about [former] Black Diamond Mayor Rebecca Olness and her husband Ron's home is the spectacular view of Lake Sawyer from their deck. The second thing you notice is the somewhat peculiar room off to the right with the wall-to-wall cedar paneling; a curved, cedar-paneled ceiling with beams made from tree saplings—bark and all; two white, semi-transparent glass windows; and between them, a large river rock-faced fireplace.
But of course this is precisely the room I came to see. (more…)

Solution for injection in pre-filled syringe
(Referred to as Atropine sulfate Injection in this leaflet)
Read all of this leaflet carefully before you start using this medicine
because it contains important information for you.
- Keep this leaflet. You may need to read it again.
- If you have any further questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
- This medicine has been prescribed for you. Do not pass it on to others.
It may harm them, even if their signs of illness are the same as yours.
- If you get any side effects, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
This includes any possible side effects not listed in this leaflet.
See section 4.

2. Before you use Atropine sulfate Injection
3. How to use Atropine sulfate Injection
4. Possible side effects
5. How to store Atropine sulfate Injection
6. Further information
Atropine belongs to a group of medicines known as anticholinergics.
An anticholinergic is a substance that blocks the neurotransmitter
acetylcholine in the central and peripheral nervous system. It is used in
emergency situations when the heart beats too slowly, as an antidote to
for example organophosphate insecticide or nerve gas poisoning and in
mushroom poisoning.
It can be used as part of the premedication before general anaesthesia.
It can also be used to prevent side effects of other drugs which are used to
reverse the effects of muscle relaxants after surgery.
Atropine sulfate 3 mg/10 ml solution for injection in pre-filled syringe is
used to treat adults only.
Do not use Atropine sulfate Injection if you:
- are allergic (hypersensitive) to atropine or any of the other ingredients of
this medicine (See section 6. Further information),
- have elevated pressure in your eye (glaucoma),
- have urinary difficulties,
- have oesophagus disease (achalasia of oesophagus), a blockage in your
intestine (paralytic ileus), or acute form of colonic distension (toxic
These contraindications do not apply in case of life-threatening emergencies.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor before using Atropine sulfate Injection if you have:
- prostatic disease,
- hyperthyroidism,
- heart failure,
- liver or kidney disease,
- some cardiac diseases,
- stomach disease, such as pyloric narrowing,
- chronic bronchitis,
- heartburn (reflux),
- fever,
- elderly,
- myasthenia gravis (severe muscle weakness).
Using other medicines
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken or
might take any other medicines:
- tricyclic some antidepressants,
- some antihistamines,
- medicines for Parkinson's disease,
- phenothiazine, clozapine or neuroleptic drugs (for mental illness),
- quinidine or disopyramide (for heart disease),
- antispasmodics medications (for irritable bowel syndrome).
Pregnancy and breast-feeding
Limited data from the use of atropine in pregnant women indicate no
adverse effects on pregnancy or on the health of the fetus. Atropine crosses
the placenta. Intravenous administration of atropine during pregnancy or at
term may cause a faster heart rate in the fetus and the mother. This medicine
should only be administered during pregnancy after careful consideration of
the benefits and risks of the treatment.
Small amounts of atropine may pass into breast milk and may have effects
on the infant. Atropine may inhibit the production of breast milk. Your
doctor will consider the benefit of breast-feeding against the benefit of the
treatment. Breast-feeding should be discontinued if the decision to use
the treatment is maintained. However, if it is decided during treatment to
continue breast-feeding, your doctor will perform extra examinations on the
If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are
planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before
taking this medicine.
Driving and using machines
Atropine injection may cause confusion or blurred vision. You should not
drive or operate machinery after receiving an injection.
Atropine sulfate Injection contains sodium
This medicinal product contains 3.5 mg (0.154 mmol) of sodium per ml of
injection (a total of 35 mg or 1.540 mmol in 10 ml syringe). This amount
must be taken into consideration by patients on a controlled sodium diet.
Your doctor will decide the correct dosage for you and how and when the
injection will be given.
The usual dosages are:
As premedication before anaesthesia
Adults: 0.3-0.6 mg (IV).
To reverse effects of muscle relaxants
Adults: 0.6-1.2 mg intravenously (IV) with neostigmine.
In low heartbeat, heart block or cardiac arrest
• Sinus bradycardia (low heartbeat): 0.5 mg IV, every 2-5 minutes until the
desired heart rate is achieved.
• AV block (Block the transmission of the contraction between the atrium
and the ventricle): 0.5 mg IV, every 3-5 minutes (maximum 3 mg).
As an antidote to organophosphorus poisoning (insecticides, or nerve gas),
to anticholinesterases and in muscarinic mushroom poisoning:
Adults: 0,5-2 mg depending on the patient's features and response, can be
repeated after 5 minutes and subsequently as required.
If you have any further questions on the use of this product, ask your doctor
or pharmacist.
This injection will be given to you by a doctor or nurse, it is unlikely
that you will be given too much atropine. If you think you have been
given too much Atropine, you feel your heart beating very fast, you are
breathing quickly, have a high temperature, feel restless, confused, have
hallucinations, or lose co-ordination you must tell the person giving you the

Get in quick before tariffs are cut.
Any households thinking of installing a renewable energy system such as solar PV panels would be well advised to act now. Sources in the renewable energy sector are predicting that the government is set to reduce tariffs paid to domestic renewable energy producers. This is the money paid to households who have installed domestic renewable heating systems capable of selling back excess energy to the national grid. The good news is that these cuts which are set to begin on April 1st will only apply to new applicants.
In April it is widely predicted that there will be a massive cut of 20% in the tariffs paid due to the large uptake in renewable energy systems. Indeed the uptake has been so great that it has exceeded the government's " Super Threshold ". This is expected to be the start of many more cuts to come in successive quarters. Expenditure on domestic RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive) is worked out using a process called degression. This works by gradually lowering the tariffs paid to new applicants as more renewable heating systems are installed.
Th!nk Energy is a local Yorkshire business with years of experience in the renewable energy sector. If you are thinking of installing a renewable energy system in your home then we advise you to act now as to delay would mean that you could miss out on the higher tariffs currently being paid. We can supply and install solar PV units, biomass boilers, air or ground source heat pumps and even domestic wind turbines. Our experts can advise you on the very best system for your property and we can help you to access any grants available through the government's 'Green Deal' as we are an accredited Green Deal company.
Do not hesitate to call us on 01924 267500 and our team of experts will be happy to guide you through the whole process from applying for grants through to technical reports and installation. Here at Th!nk Energy we specialise in fitting the very best and most up to date renewable energy systems available and you can rely on our professionalism and expertise.

When you move into your first house, you think about all the big things you need—beds, a sofa, a television stand—but adding accessories to a home is what completes it.
I love my house, having renovated it all over a six month period, but it feels so bare and unfinished. It isn't cosy because adding accessories to a home is what makes it cozy and comfortable.
So, what accessories can you add?
I've been searching for some artwork to put above my fireplace. It is such an empty space, and a large piece of art will draw the attention away from our 50" monstrosity.
The problem is, artwork is expensive. Well the artwork, not so much, but the frames can cost an extra £100. This is why we've put off buying any house accessories until the wedding is over in 7 months time.
Art.co.uk have some wonderful pieces, from classics by Monet to prints, maps and abstract paintings.
Rugs are another accessory than can be pricey, especially if you're like me and want a huge one to cover your entire 8-person dining table. With wooden floor through the dining room and kitchen, it still feels a bit echoey.
I would love a rug to go over the wooden floor to soften it all up. I think I'm a bit apprehensive though, especially of crumbs and stains getting on the carpet!
Curtains and blinds
The only rooms we have proper curtains in is the bedroom. The bathroom, landing, lounge and kitchen diner don't have them yet. Curtains and blinds are another expense that we're not spending until after the wedding. Curtains will really help to soften the room, and can make the ceiling look higher when hung correctly.
Blinds can also be used to reflect light so we'll be investing in some blinds for the landing and kitchen windows.
I've been really fussy, more so than I thought, with lighting. I'm yet to find wall lights for the landing that I actually like, and we haven't got a ceiling light in our lounge yet, only two lamps and a bare wire hanging out of the ceiling, which is demonstrated below.
Again, these aren't entirely a priority for me, but they transform the look of a room without much effort.
Adding accessories to a home can make a huge difference. You'll be surprised what a rug or a picture frame can do. Have you ever experimented with your accessories, and did it make a difference?

A young and foolish pilot wanted to sound cool on the aviation frequencies.
This was his first time approaching a field during the nighttime, and instead of making any official requests to the tower, he said, "Guess who?"
The controller switched the field lights off and replied, "Guess
A student was heading home for the holidays. When she got to the airline counter, she presented her ticket to New York. As she gave the agent her luggage, she made the remark, "I'd like you to send my green suitcase to Hawaii, and my red suitcase to London."
The confused agent said, "I'm sorry, we can't do that."
"Really??? I am so relieved to hear you say that because that's exactly what you did to my luggage last year!"
Brendan had spent a week visiting his family in Kentucky. His sister-in-law and seven-year-old nephew went with him when he returned to the airport. After verifying his seat number with the counter attendant, Brendan walked back to his relatives and stated that he'd have to wait an additional three hours in the airport.
"How come?," his nephew asked.
"My plane has been grounded," Brendan explained.
"Grounded?" the little boy said. "I didn't know planes had parents."
Flying to Los Angeles from San Francisco the other day, a passenger noticed that the "Fasten Seat Belts" sign was kept lit during the whole journey although the flight was a particularly smooth one.
Just before landing, he asked the stewardess about it.
"Well," she explained, "up front there are 17 University of California girls going to Los Angeles for the weekend.
"In back, there are 25 Coast Guard enlistees. What would you do?"
An airline pilot was scheduled to take a flight from New York to Los Angeles. The weather was too bad in New York to allow his usual on time departure. The weather in New York finally cleared and the pilot asked for
his departure clearance. He was very dismayed to hear that he had another delay due to the increased traffic now leaving New York.
Sometime later he finally received his clearance and decided he would try to make up the time lost by asking for a direct route to Los Angeles. Halfway across the country he was told to turn due South. Knowing that this turn would now throw him further behind schedule he inquired, quite
agitated, to the controller for the reason of the turn off course. The controller replied that the turn was for noise abatement.
The pilot was infuriated and said to the controller, "Look buddy, I am already way behind schedule with all the delays you guys have given me today. I really don't see how I could be causing a noise problem for
pedestrians when I am over 6 miles above the earth!"
The controller answered in a calm voice, "Apparently, Captain, you have
never heard two 747's collide!"

Another way to arrive to Mallorca is by boat although this is less used. There are scheduled lines by "Trasmediterránea", "Balearia" and "Iscomar" between Barcelona, Valencia, Denia and the Balearics. Here you can find more information about sea transport.
3) Buses
The EMT (Municipal Transport Company) offers a wide transport system to make communication easier among the different municipalities.
There is only one single ticket which is valid only once. EMT offers a ten-journey discount card. You can buy them at tobacco shops and at the EMT offices. Several people can use this card at the same time and it is valid for urban lines.
EMT Bus Routes, Schedule and Fees (EMT-lines.pdf)
Map of Routes (Bus-routes.pdf)
4) Metro
The metro line starts off at the main station located at the Plaça d\\\'Espanya and covers a distance of 7.2 km. until reaching the Campus of the University of the Balearic Islands. The metro takes 13 minutes to cover this distance. It is the easiest way to go to the Campus.
5) Campus
The campus is 7.5km away from Palma, in the road to Valldemossa. The public transport that will take you to the UIB campus is the bus, line 19, which runs all day long and rather frequently. In Palma line 19 has two different routes:
Plaça d'Espanya: Porta des Camp, Av. Gabriel Alomar i Villalonga, Plaça d'Espanya, Av. Comte Sallent, General Riera, ... Campus.
Av. Argentina: Av. Argentina, Ramon I Cajal, Plaça Fortí, Av. Portugal, Av. Alemanya, General Riera, ... Campus
Here you can find the location of the different buildings (campus.pdf)
Here you can find a map of the island (MapaA4.pdf)
Google Maps have a nice bird\\\'s-eye view.
6) The language
Palma is a diversified city, where you will be able to hear a great diversity of languages. This fact is due to the city\\\'s high volume of tourists.
Mallorca, as well as the remaining Balearic Islands, has two official languages: the Catalan, the island\\\'s language, and Spanish, the official language of the Spanish State.
7) The weather
September marks the end of the summer in Europe. It is a dry month in Mallorca and the average temperature is 20-27 ºC. For more information visit Weather Online
8) The Currency
Mallorca has an official currency, the Euro, the same as all the other countries within the European Union who have joined the Monetary Union.
The following bank notes are in circulation: 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 Euros. Additionally, coins with the following face values are in circulation too: 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cents, as well as 1 and 2 Euros.
Should you need to change currency, please request this service at banks or savings banks within the city, as well as at exchange offices located in the city centre and in tourist areas.
9) Customs
Spain belongs to the European Union since 1986. Historically, the European Union is based upon a customs union agreed by the member countries. The customs union\\\'s main characteristic is the complete, legal harmonisation of the customs division, whilst the member states are responsible for the application of the rules.

Update by user Jan 28, 2017
A customer service representative from corporate emailed me and called me to resolve the issue. Working with him definitely changed my opinion for the better of the company.
Original review posted by user Jan 27, 2017
I'm extremely disappointed with my experience with this company. I bought the original Swagway X1 hoverboard for my son for Christmas for $290.
It was used once when it began to vibrate, knocked my son off and then the rubber foot pad came apart. Upon further investigation, I noticed that the base was cracked. I followed the directions on your website to return the board for repairs (costing me $43 in shipping). All I received was an emailed bill for $95 to replace the broken parts!
How is this something that I should be paying for?! The warranty is terrible. Do they not stand by their product? When I spoke to customer service on 1/23 to find out why I am responsible for the fee, I was told only that my other option (other than spending $95 to fix the board) was to return it and pay a restocking fee of 30% of the original price!
Unhappy with this option, I asked to speak to a supervisor and was told that no one was available and that I would be contacted by phone or email soon. However, no one ever contacted me and all I received was an email with a refund confirmation, which I never said I wanted to follow through with. Even more disappointing was the fact that the refund confirmation is for $203! I paid $290!
I just called the customer service line again today because I refuse to pay $90 to have the board restocked when I could pay $95 to fix it and actually have a board. Right now, I'm out $140 ($90 to restock and $40 to ship it) and no board to even show for it! I was informed today that the only way I can speak with a supervisor is through a message on Facebook or an email to support, so that is what I am doing. I chose Swagtron because I know two people who each have the same board for over a year with no issues.
They use the board daily, roughly and on all terrains. Obviously the one I received was defected.
I've never dealt with an issue like this before from a supposed reputable company. It's extremely disappointing and disheartening.
Product or Service Mentioned: Swagtron Swagway X1 Hoverboard.
Reason of review: Return, Exchange or Cancellation Policy.
Monetary Loss: $330.
Preferred solution: Full refund.
I didn't like: Make me pay to ship their defective product, Machine i got is defective, Warranty process, Customer service.
Thank You for your feedback!
We also Thank You for the opportunity to address and solve this issue!
We sincerely apologize for any frustration Swagtron™ may have caused you and are extremely glad that you the issue is rectified!

Taming The Infinite/ Chapter 14/ Algebra comes of age.
It is evident how in the universe there remains a tremendous amount of mysteries, especially considering that there is the possibility of it being infinite, then logically there are endless mysteries. Should we forget the validity of Euclidean geometry? Certainly not, its validity is undeniable, inevitable, irrefutable, not only in that it explains perfectly the relations between two-dimensional shapes, but in that also it provides a keenness of thought. If Euclidean geometry were all there is, in the universe and our very minds, then we would be complete; evidently that was not the case, and therefore came other kinds of geometry. What other kinds of algebra could there be? Andre Wiles and his major discovery, or invention, is discussed in this chapter. He had to work on top of topological theories about things whose relevance was first not apparent at all. These thing are considered "beautiful", when things come together harmoniously into an equation, THAT is the beauty of mathematics. There is however, still a large obscurity within mathematics that has no answers whatsoever.

when did Friday night Channel 4 get so bad?
I'm not demanding high culture. I just want to sit and watch Friends and Will & Grace and Scrubs.
Talking heads fucking Alan Carr fucking shite.
I'm not looking forward
to going back to only four channels. I might be down the pub A LOT more quite soon.
now THAT
I'd like to see.
Why doesn't Channel 5 show comedy softcore porn on a Friday night any more? Eh?
Why AREN'T we at the pub?
Ho_ho, I blame you.
alcxxk? homesick? we're not very rock and roll, are we?
Speak for yourself
I just threw my TV out of the window.
what are you going to do NOW?
Make sure...
you take loads of photos of your journey.

'the best of the worst' is amazing.
johnny vaughan!
david mitchell!

cheese rolling though
these are my fucking people :|
Its really bad
Instead Im watching "50 greatest rock albums ever" on "the hits", which is basically "quite famous guitar albums which have singles on them that videos have been made for and we can afford to show, arranged in the order we think most people wouldent be that bothered about"
White riot by the clash is number 9, apparently...
Blame the producers
They have such a low opinion of the public, particularly the public who can't afford to go out and thus spend Fridays watching TV; the producers assume that these people are morons who like only moronic TV. To get a job in TV production you need to have failed all your exams at a posh school and be totally detached from reality.

Code Pink Celebrates Obama Win… Wants Reparations For Iraqis
Code Pink Marxists congratulated themselves today for the Obama victory last night.
They also pushed for reparations for the Iraqi people and a new New Deal for America.
From the Code Pink page:
An Obama victory is a victory for the peace movement. It sends a message to the political establishment that being against war is the winning position. War is SO Over. American voters have recognized the costs-lives lost, international cooperation thwarted, and tax dollars squandered-and chosen the candidate who promised to end the Iraq war and to use diplomacy first.
We should all take a moment-or a few days or even a week-to relish a job well done. We worked hard for this victory and should celebrate. But we can't stop now: an Obama administration will need our help to live up to its promises.
What do we want from an Obama Administration and a Democratic-controlled Congress? We want an end to the occupation of Iraq and reparations for its people. We don't want the troops from Iraq shipped straight to another losing war in Afghanistan. We want a negotiated settlement in Afghanistan. We want a diplomatic solution to the conflict with Iran. We want the restoration of our civil liberties and the protection of our environment. We want money to bail out homeowners who are in foreclosure because of predatory lenders. We want a NEW New Deal for America: jobs, housing, universal health care, education, roads, public transportation….We want a government that puts the needs of people ahead of the profits of banks and corporations.
The Code Pink gals were very active supporters of Barack Obama this year.
Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans, was one of the top Obama Bundlers this year and raised nearly $100,000 for her candidate. She last met with Obama in June.
Evans also stormed the stage during the Republican National Convention this year.

Rapper, Yung6ix Denies Being A Member Of Eiye Confraternity.
Nigerian rapper, Yung6ix has come out to refute claims that he is a member of infamous Nigerian association, Eiye confraternity.
This comes after a fan of the rapper saw a peculiar hand gesture in his new video "No Favours" and probably got an idea that he is a member of the secret cult.
The fan shared his opinion on Twitter, where he addressed the issue;
"I just saw No Favors video, so @Yung6ix is a birdman!!!! Eiye for that matter… Wawuuuu issokay."
And after investigating the video, here's why we think the fan gave the suggestion…
First off is the bird he set free in the first five seconds of the video – the bird, symbolizing the "Airlords" in their name.

The Mediterranean diet plan is a favorite among food bloggers and nutritionists. You may have heard of it, but you'll probably be surprised at how easy – and delicious – it actually is.
What's so great about the Mediterranean diet plan, anyway – and what is it all about? This beginner's guide will introduce you to some of the evidence behind why so many experts praise this diet, as well as walk you through which foods you should eat more of and which you should eat less of if adopting the Mediterranean diet weight loss plan.
Continue reading to find out more about the Mediterranean diet plan and read honest reviews.
Mediterranean Diet Plan Review
Countries such as Greece and Italy have been, over time, said to have populations that live longer and contract fewer chronic diseases such as heart and digestive ailments. Therefore, the Mediterranean diet plan has since been coined one of the more healthy diets out there … and those claims aren't far off.
Studies have shown that the Mediterranean diet weight loss plan has the potential to promote healthy weight loss, reduce the risk of conditions such as heart disease and type 2 diabetes and may even lower your risk of developing certain cancers.
Mediterranean Diet Plan Basics and Rules
Now a little bit about what you really came here for: which foods you can and can't eat while on the Mediterranean diet plan. This diet is largely plant based, and mostly discourages dairy products … which the body doesn't necessarily need large amounts of, anyway. Here's a quick breakdown of what to add to your grocery list and what to keep off of it.
Foods you should eat often on the Mediterranean diet
As mentioned above, while you won't be cutting out very many whole foods or food groups from your plate while you are on this diet, it does put a lot more emphasis on:
- Fruits and vegetables
- Legumes (peas, beans)
- Fish and seafood
- Whole grain breads, pastas
- Nuts and seeds
- Potatoes
With these types of foods filling your plate it's no wonder Mediterranean diet results tend to lean toward the positive side.
Foods you should eat in moderation on the Mediterranean diet plan
What does "in moderation" mean, anyway? In terms of the Mediterranean diet, it means small portions, no more than once a day at the very most. One chicken breast, a cup of yogurt or a few eggs are all probably fine. But try not to melt cheese on everything, no matter how good it might taste (sorry …).
- Eggs
- Yogurt
- Cheese
- Poultry
Foods you should only eat every once in awhile on the Mediterranean diet plan
The only food the Mediterranean diet specifies to avoid – most of the time – is red meat, and for pretty good reason. Research has implied that consuming large quantities of red meat on a regular basis could be bad for our heart health and might have the potential to cause a certain type of cancer. Because research has yet to prove these things, it's probably best to limit the amount of red meat you consume. You don't have to cut it out completely. But don't have a burger or steak with every meal, either.
Foods you should not eat on the Mediterranean diet
The foods the Mediterranean diet plan suggests should be avoided are pretty much foods you should already at least be limiting anyway.
- Refined grains
- Added sugars
- Processed meats
- Any other form of highly processed foods
Heavily processed foods – foods that have gone through a lot of refining and have had a lot of extra ingredients added to them – can make you sick. Stick to as many whole foods as possible – think what you would buy at the farmer's market or the produce section of the grocery store. If it comes in a box, you're probably better off leaving it on the shelf. If you opt to eat highly processed foods, you'll very likely impede any potential Mediterranean diet weight loss.
How to follow the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid
Here is a quick breakdown of the best way to follow the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid.
- Eat red meat and desserts only on special occasions, such as having ham at Christmas or cake to celebrate someone's birthday. When you do prepare desserts, avoid purchasing prepared (boxed or packaged) items and, instead, make them from scratch using healthier ingredients.
- Foods like yogurt, cheese, eggs and poultry should be limited to very small portions each day or moderate portions only a few times per week.
- Consume fish and seafood at least twice per week. Change it up each time so you aren't stuck eating the same kind of fish or seafood each time, especially if you are not used to eating it as often.
- Eat foods such as grains, fruits and vegetables daily, preferably at more than one meal every day.
Like to add extra flavor to your food? Salt is not the answer
One common complaint people have regardless of their specific diet is that many diets discourage the use of condiments like salad dressings, thick and creamy sauces and flavor enhancements such as salt. This is also the case with the Mediterranean diet weight loss plan, since many of these items are processed or unhealthy, but there's an easy solution.
Instead of simply saying no to salt and heavily processed sauces and dressings, the Mediterranean diet plan encourages the use of spices and herbs to flavor foods instead of items like salt. Too much sodium, over time, is bad for your heart.
There's one more thing that makes this diet unique … did you notice it?
Take a closer look at the Mediterranean Diet Pyramid.
The Mediterranean diet plan actually specifies that being physically active is part of what makes up a healthy lifestyle. You can eat all the fruits and vegetables you want to, but if you're not moving, you probably aren't going to notice much of a difference. For the best Mediterranean diet results, you'll have to move that body!
Experts recommend approximately 150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week. Find a fitness activity you will enjoy doing, such as running, playing basketball or weight lifting, set a workout routine and stick to it.
This diet's inclusion of exercise and eating meals together with friends and family is unlike most of the other popular diets we have covered in this series so far. This is a great thing for the Mediterranean diet and not so great for other diets. As important as it is to focus on eating healthier foods, cutting out processed foods alone isn't necessarily going to make you any healthier.
Quick tips for success on the Mediterranean diet plan
- Eat a variety of foods at each meal. Try to fill your plate with as many different food groups as possible, including grains, vegetables, protein and fruit.
- Remember that a diet is a transition. Take your time incorporating new foods or more foods of a particular food group into your meals one at a time while slowly phasing out things that contain added sugars and artificial ingredients.
- Don't swear off of fish or seafood before you've let yourself try different things. You might not like crab or salmon, but may fall in love with tuna or tilapia.
Menu and Meal Planning
- Banana nut oatmeal
- Chickpea salad
- Garlic bread
- Peas (one half cup)
- Crackers with hummus
- Fruit smoothie
- Homemade potato chips
- Strawberries and yogurt
Grocery Shopping List
- Chickpeas
- Almonds, cashews, walnuts
- Sunflower seeds
- Potatoes
- Seafood
- Apples
- Berries
- Bananas
- Avocado
- Beans
Does the Mediterranean Diet Work?
You've likely heard people say over and over again that the Mediterranean diet is an excellent dietary choice to make. What, specifically, makes it so amazing? Here are a few of the Mediterranean's most notable health benefits.
- Emphasis on plant based eating, which not only promotes heart health but reduces risk of other diseases and conditions.
- Discourages red meat and encourages consumption of fish and seafood, which tend to be higher in unsaturated fats (the "good" kind of fats).
- Only suggests "avoiding" foods such as processed food, which nutrition experts strongly recommend against.
The one downside to the Mediterranean diet weight loss plan is that it does not specify how much of each type of food or food group you are supposed to be eating per day. This can be good for some people because it encourages them to focus more on food and less on things like calories and weight. Those who have trouble with portion control, however, might still overeat on this diet if they do not take the time to learn about proper serving and portion sizes.
That being said, adopting the Mediterranean diet plan does not mean you should indulge in unlimited breadsticks and giant bowls of pasta smothered in Alfredo sauce whenever you get the chance! Eating a variety of foods is your ticket to Mediterranean diet success.
What the Mediterranean diet plan cannot do
As with any diet, the Mediterranean diet does have some limitations. As you can probably guess, it is a diet … not a magic potion that will instantly make you healthy!
- It cannot, through food alone, help you lose weight, but you can check out fit tea to help suppress your food cravings. That is why there is an emphasis on physical activity. So if you think changing your eating habits alone is going to give you magic results, it's time for a reality check. Or a new pair of sneakers.
- It cannot teach you better portion control.
- It cannot guarantee that you will not develop type 2 diabetes or heart disease. Risk reduction is something very different. Reduced risk of developing these conditions is a potential side effect.
Is olive oil good for you?
Absolutely. Olive oil comes from olives, and both are important sources of healthy fats for both heart health and weight loss. Vegetable oil, which you have probably seen in recipes and used in cooking before, contains saturated fat, which can be harmful to your heart and interfere with weight loss. Not only is olive oil the perfect replacement — but you can also use it to add flavor to foods, as long as you're using it wisely.
Healthy fats are part of what makes the Mediterranean diet so beneficial for heart health. You can also check out these paleo diet reviews to see the heart benefits as well. While you should still be mindful of how much oil you are using in cooking, olive oil is much healthier than vegetable oil, and you are welcome to use it sparingly to cook and flavor your food to promote healthier eating for both you and your family.
Can a Mediterranean diet plan lead to weight loss?
It certainly can. The Mediterranean diet is one of the more widely studied diets, and consistently appears toward the top of the U.S. News & World Report's diet rankings. The reason this diet works is because thousands upon thousands of people's eating habits have been studied — and the foods they eat really do make a difference.
At the end of the day, weight loss happens when you decrease your calorie intake, when you improve the quality of the calories you are consuming, when you exercise, or all of the above. You might lose weight because you aren't eating processed foods. You might lose weight because you're eating more protein and healthy fats, and fewer sugars and saturated fats. Whatever the reason, changing your eating and overall lifestyle habits for the better can make all the difference.
What's important is that you are staying consistent. You can't follow the Mediterranean diet this week, not follow it for two weeks, start following it again, and still expect to lose weight. If you want to make progress, you have to allow progress to happen. And if that means giving up chocolate frosted doughnuts for breakfast every day, well, you decide which of the two — weight loss or chocolate frosting — is more important to you now and in the long-term. You should also incorporate working out or even trying out this plank challenge.
Can I drink almond milk on the Mediterranean diet?
Yes, you can. However, make sure you're buying unsweetened almond milk. Sweetened almond milk contains a lot of added sugar (to make it taste sweeter), which is neither good for weight loss nor an overall healthy lifestyle. It kind of defeats the purpose of drinking a healthy beverage if you just pour a bunch of sugar into it.
The Mediterranean diet is a lot simpler, and more satisfying, than you might think. Stock up on fruits and veggies and have fun getting healthy! You can also try the ketogenic diet if the Mediterranean diet plan doesn't work for you.
