Number 1 Hotel in the World, according to Conde Nast Readers' Choice Awards, 2013. Best Hotel in Africa and South Africa's Leading Luxury Hotel, 2010. Best new sensation in the world, Tatler (UK) 2009. Seriously?! That is an impressive list of accolades, no matter how you want to tone down the hype. Mrs. MM had booked two nights in wine country after our brief but amazing safari, and we found ourselves checking into La Residence, in Franschhoek, a 45 minute drive from the Cape Town International airport. After days of beautiful weather at Singita, we flew in a tiny private plane to the Kruger National Airport and transferred to a larger (but not LARGE) commercial jet flight to Cape Town.
Before descending, the pilot warned of an approaching storm (yipes, isn't this THAT infamous cape with WICKED storms?!) and to prepare for a rough descent and landing. Let's just say it was a bit harrowing, what I imagine landing in a Typhoon signal number 3 might be like. The last time we had anything just as bad was landing in a small jetprop plane into the Jackson Hole, Wyoming airport with a massive dust storm roaring through the valley just behind us and the wall of dust hit us just as we were disembarking from the plane! After getting our luggage at the Cape town airport, we were met by Randall, our guide and driver for the next five days, and he got us into a very comfortable van for the brief And scenic ride to wine country.
We arrived at La Residence late afternoon in light rain but ominous clouds (photos above taken the next day). The hotel has only a dozen luxuriously appointed rooms (and some private villas), and felt more like a B&B on a bit of Imeldific steroids. Set on 30 stunning acres, it has vineyards and gardens at the foothills of nearby mountains. To fully enjoy this experience, you must suspend reality for a moment, and the fact that fewer than 1/1000th of 1 percent of the world's traveling public will ever get a chance to visit this little corner of hotel (and wine) paradise, and that poverty back home AND in South Africa DOES co-exist with places like this. If there were ever a marketmanila "fishpan" post, this and the next one would be prime candidates for those who can't appreciate occasional but honestly earned excess. So consider yourselves warned and stop reading if you don't like these types of posts… I won't tolerate any luxury bashing in the comments section below, thanks.
You drive up to a portico as though visiting friends on some beautiful private wine estate. The fountains, statues and urns seem a bit over-the-top and we usually opt for the sparser more minimalist hotels, but you have to see the whole property to appreciate it better. You walk into a foyer with an enormous chandelier (a recurring theme throughout the hotel), table filled with locally grown flowers and you see right through to the pool and spectacular view to the rear of the property.
Turn to the left of a rather long room and you see the living area, seating areas, fireplace, and mezzanine library. Chandeliers galore in an otherwise traditional building construction of concrete walls, and wooden rafters/ceiling that we saw several examples of in South Africa. There is modern and classic art ALL over the place, as well as plush furnishings, accessories and knickknacks of the sort that an owner/collector appears to have had great pleasure acquiring and displaying locally and perhaps in places like the south of France, Spain and estate sales elsewhere in Europe. Gigantic mirrors in the public areas make the rooms seem bigger and more sparkly as they reflect the light from the chandeliers. At least one mirror was cracked, and several pieces of furniture seemed worse for wear, but I suppose that's expected for pieces like this in a hotel setting. It was opulent, but in a nouveau kind of way. The impact for guests intending to stay just two days cosseted in this luxury? Impressive.
Turn to the right from the foyer and you see the dining areas that are set up for a breakfast buffet and dinner if you choose to dine in. The checkerboard pattern on the floor is classic black and white stone and I have always loved it whenever I see it in homes or other settings.
Tables draped with linens in the evening and set with nice china and silver transform the room into a more formal setting. Flowers are everywhere and it really does seem like a large country house. The night we checked in, I suspect just 5 or 6 out of the 12 rooms were occupied, with us having two of them. Only two other couples were having dinner in, probably due the heavy rains and howling winds outdoors.
The warm glow of incandescent lighting…
…fires burning in both fireplaces…
…and deep couches. Honestly, with the large french doors all along both sides of this main room made for a light, airy and stunning room by day, but conjured up images of a perfect setting for a murder who-done-it on a stormy evening. :) Or the ideal place to plop down with a good old fashioned book curled up under a cashmere throw… We didn't really hang out in the public areas for very long (except for breakfast and one dinner) because our own rooms were so luxurious and comfortable.
The doors on the other side of the small foyer opened up…
…onto a covered terrace and with tables and chairs for outdoor meals in good weather…
…and at one end of the lanai or terrace there were seating areas that had a view to a nearby manmade lake and the gardens surrounding it. Notice the two white wicker (peacock?) chairs in the back, and I wondered if they were made in the Philippines…
The lawn, lined on each side with enormous date palms and ending at a pool with a panoramic view of the vineyards and mountains is picture perfect.
And wouldn't you know it, several peacocks just made their appearance, walking around the lawn and terrace, occasionally displaying their beautiful plumage.
More than the bricks and mortar, and interior decor, the most spectacular part of this hotel was the VIEW. THE VIEW!! Despite it being early Winter, and the leaves on the vines all dried up, the neat rows of grape vines, the olive trees, the lavender, etc. all just made added up to this amazing view in early morning.
Sunrise from our room's balcony…
…and a panoramic view from the center of that same balcony.
The bushes of lavender between olive trees reminded one of the South of France…
…and walking amongst the vines in crisp weather, clear mountain air, was so calming and invigorating at the same time. Next up, a post on our suites at La Residence…
MM, WOW! this is stunning. I am so happy that you're sharing all the stunning photos and experiences with us mortals. ^_^! We're like a part of your adventure already. Thank you!
Jun 24, 2014 | 10:27 pm
Bash, bash, bash! I'm so jealous!!
Jun 24, 2014 | 10:32 pm
You are allowed to bask in luxury MM, and no guilty pleasures! a well earned holiday reaping the fruits of your labor as you make your own contributions to the bigger society: 'From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs". ( with apologies to Karl Marx)
Jun 24, 2014 | 10:32 pm
Love, love, love your photos especially the sunrise from the balcony…..postcard perfect!!!
Jun 24, 2014 | 10:36 pm
Wow, seriously beautiful view! Really appreciate it very much!
Jun 25, 2014 | 5:11 am
I ape your "seriously?". I recall the suite you occupied and the surrounding complex and amenities at Amanjena in Marrakech (which is still in Africa, btw) a few years ago more unified in conception and even lavisher in details. At least the lights there were subtle, effective and did not blind with their glitter. But that's Aman Resorts for you. Their presence in Beijing is unique, the Summer Palace leaves out only the fluttering of eunuchs to make you feel like a Ming emperor. Probably concerned that the outrageous practice would have left a class of people shy and lonely while compounding human rights violations in the country.
Jun 25, 2014 | 5:28 am
i love it all! despite the luxury and elegance, the exposed beams and the decor make it look very homey. and MM, your "won't tolerate any luxury bashing" statement is priceless.
Jun 25, 2014 | 7:42 am
Thanks again for sharing these wonderful pictures.
Jun 25, 2014 | 8:24 am
Spectacular view from your balcony! Perfect place to enjoy breakfast or a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. I had thought of the same thing when i saw the white chairs in the background. I had expected the safari to be part of your trip but not wine country and this amazing hotel. Thank you for sharing and educating us on the wonders of South Africa!
Jun 25, 2014 | 8:49 am
wow. just…wow. :) I hope that I and the rest of my small family will be as well-traveled as you are. Makataya nga sa lotto. Hehehe ;)
Can't wait for the post re: the suites!
Jun 25, 2014 | 9:04 am
How cozy and homey. The interior has the looks and air of a french chateau while the terrace evokes the outdoor spaces of spanish villas.
Jun 25, 2014 | 9:41 am
It is your hard-earned money and truly, you deserve this (unlike some politicians we know)! So, thank you for sharing this with us! I only see these much opulence in movies and can only imagine them in books! So, thank you, really. Puede na ko mamatay sa inggit :)
Jun 25, 2014 | 11:10 am
with all the hard work you've done for Zubuchon, you deserve this
lavish vacation! :) Thanks for sharing your vacation experience!
Jun 25, 2014 | 3:50 pm
I remember you saying "totally unnecessary" when describing your wine country digs. Now that I've seen photos, I must disagree. Totally necessary! Such opulence!
The panoramic shot and the photo of the sunrise viewed from your balcony – oh, my!
Jun 26, 2014 | 2:50 am
Jun 26, 2014 | 7:03 pm
Wow…. wow… again…. wow…
There should be a "like" button somewhere in this blog! The "luxury bashing" cracked me up! Hahaha!
Jun 28, 2014 | 1:31 am
What beautiful chandelier and black and white flooring!
Jun 29, 2014 | 4:10 pm
Saw this property on our drive to Le Quartier Francaise. Wonderful.
Jun 29, 2014 | 6:21 pm
Jul 3, 2014 | 11:04 am
This is really THE trip of a lifetime….very apt gift to yourselves as you both enter the golden year! And that's right…no bashing allowed because you deserved it, you've earned it!
Jul 7, 2014 | 12:57 am
The descriptions and photos were already such a treat! What a great end to your double birthday celebration :)

Today, anyone can push forward a business, company or idea by using Facebook. Even our protests start their way from Facebook. The strongest ways for promotions that Facebook allows such as creating a user, group or buying advertising- Allows us to get stronger promoting platforms.
Why do we have to maintain contact with the customers at all times?
Just like in real life relationship, exposure on Facebook and staying known to the customer all the time required investment. If for example you've opened a group, the group has to keep being updated and running at all times. If there is a business card, you've got to maintain it, renew it once in a while, offer attractive promotions and create that way new, personal interest ties and keep refreshing the page every day.
Keep in touch with the customer through Facebook. It's always important to keep in personal touch with the customer, always update them with discounts, being attractive, invite them to events and stay in contact thoughtfully.
Such actions will eventually even in the far future, lead to willpower to act.
I Have Sympathy- Be Sympathetic
Try to gather as much as likes and fans possible. The more the business or product will look popular- that way the chances that new fans will join are much higher. The popularity of your product will attract potential new customers because that way it'll look more inviting and high quality.
Another method that helps keep your customer's interest and loyalty is to invite them to events, update them on every detail of the company and even try and ask them to leave their personal information in order to maintain direct contact with them and keep them close.

MOSCOW — The police arrested more than 200 people in a roundup on Sunday that the local news media linked to an obscure right-wing movement that had been calling for a repeat of the Russian Revolution, timed near its 100th anniversary.
The movement, called Artpodgotovka, or Art Preparation, had agitated in online posts for followers to prepare for revolution, but had not been widely known or taken seriously before this weekend.
The tiny turnout did not seem to pose any real threat. The people who followed directions in the group's online posts and showed up at noon on Sunday on Manezh Square, in the center of Moscow, milled about in seeming confusion before officers arrested them.
"It was a very strange picture," said Aleksandr Verkhovsky, the director of Sova Center, a nongovernmental organization that monitors right-wing groups in Russia.
The movement's leader, Vyacheslav Maltsev, a video blogger based in France, had for months been posting YouTube videos calling on followers to revolt on Nov. 5. He called it "revolution 2017."
Nov. 5 falls a day after a holiday in Russia known as Unity Day, a successor to the former Soviet celebration commemorating the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution. President Vladimir V. Putin introduced the new holiday early in his term.
Mr. Maltsev's planned event may have overlapped with the aftermath of protests by nationalists who have used Unity Day to stage marches against immigrants. Many nationalist activists were out on the streets over the weekend.
The timing created some initial confusion over whom the police were detaining.
Several dozen protesters were detained at the nationalist march on Saturday, on Unity Day, which was unrelated to Mr. Maltsev's call for revolt.
It is not clear whether all of those arrested on Sunday were followers of Mr. Maltsev, or even aware of his blog posts, or had stumbled into the gatherings believing them to be a continuation of the Unity Day protests.
Mr. Verkhovsky, a longtime observer of nationalist groups, said many of the same people had turned out for both events.
Artpodgotovka is a nationalist and populist movement that has tried to emulate European far-right organizations. While the Kremlin has financed and is suspected of maintaining ties to European far-right parties and organizations, the arrests over the weekend underscored its scant tolerance for such groups at home.
The police reported 230 arrests in Moscow on Sunday, according to the Interfax news agency. Similar gatherings took place in other Russian cities after the online posts called for supporters to come out at noon on Sunday in a main square of their city.
Some in the crowd in Moscow carried knives and pistols that fire rubber bullets, which are legal in Russia for self-defense, Interfax reported.
The Federal Security Service, Russia's main domestic law-enforcement agency, said in a statement on Friday it had broken up several cells of Artpodgotovka and that members had "the goal of organizing a revolution in Russia." The statement said the group planned to attack police officers, set administrative buildings on fire and create mass disturbances.
In July, Russian prosecutors charged Mr. Maltsev under a law that prohibits "calls to commit extremist actions." But because the authorities have also used the law against peaceful opposition figures in recent years, the accusation drew little attention.

Municipality Črnomelj, which is part of the Jugovzhodna Slovenija statistical region, measures 340 km2; this ranks it 5th among Slovene municipalities.
Statistical data for 2016 reveal the following:
In the middle of 2016 about 14,400 people (about 7,310 men and 7,090 women) were living in the municipality, which ranks Črnomelj 37th among Slovene municipalities. The population density was 42 people per square kilometre, which was lower than the national average 102 people per square kilometre.
The number of live births was lower than the number of deaths, which means that natural increase per 1,000 population in the municipality was negative. It was -2 (in Slovenia 0.3). The number of people who moved from the municipality was higher than the number of people who moved into the municipality, so net migration per 1,000 population in the municipality was negative. It was -1. The sum of natural increase and net migration per 1,000 population in the municipality was negative. It was -3 (in Slovenia 0.8).
The mean age of people in Črnomelj was 43.8 years, which was higher than the national average (42.9).
As in most Slovene municipalities, in Črnomelj the number of old people was higher than the number young people: there were 133 people, aged 65 or more, per 100 people aged 0–14. This ratio shows that the value of the ageing index was higher than the national average 125. It also shows that the mean age of people in Črnomelj is growing more rapidly than in Slovenia as a whole. Data by sex show that the ageing index for women was in all Slovene municipalities higher than the ageing index for men. In Črnomelj – As in most Slovene municipalities – more women were 65+ years old than 14 or less; for men the situation was the same.
In the school year 2016/2017 basic schools in Črnomelj were attended by about 1210 pupils, while various upper secondary schools were attended by about 480 pupils. There were 34 students and 13 graduates per 1,000 people in the municipality; in Slovenia the averages were 39 per 1,000 and 15 per 1,000, respectively.
Among people aged 15–64 (i.e. working age population) about 58% were persons in employment (i.e. persons in paid employment or self-employed persons), which is less than national average (60%).
The registered unemployment rate was 18.3%, which is more than the national average (11.2%). As in most Slovene municipalities, more women than men were unemployed.
In Črnomelj, average monthly gross earnings per person employed by legal persons were about 16% lower than the annual average of monthly earnings for Slovenia; and net earnings about 13% lower.
In 2015, there were 405 dwellings per 1,000 population. About 60% of dwellings had at least three rooms. Average size of dwellings in the municipality was 81 m2.
Every other person in Črnomelj had a car (52 passenger cars per 100 population); cars in this municipality were on average 11 years old.
In 2016, 241 kg of municipal waste per person was collected in Črnomelj, which is 106 kg less than on average in Slovenia.

After catching Day 1 at MidPoint, I made it back for Day 3. Although I missed out on some of the festival's more exciting bands, I managed to catch some of the more accomplished ones. I started the night off with The Mocks, a DIY duo from Mexico who claim their sound to be that of an electronic orchestra, and while it was fun…I was hoping for more. Too much reliance on pre-programmed computer beats reslted in awkward dead time between songs, and killed any flow they'd have liked to have achieved. Halfway through the set, we set out for Mates of State. MidPoint was my first experience getting to see Mates of State who I had missed just a month or so earlier. Despite the prevalence of the free Scion cabs around the city, they wouldn't take the trip across the water back into Kentucky, so Southgate required us to make the trip in our own car. Mates of State put on a wonderful show with the uplifting and fun pop you'd expect out of them.
We closed the night with the super secret show at Know theatre that everyone was so excited for. The Spill-It blog had been giving clues to who the band would be, and my Cincinnati friends picked up on it instantly. Nevertheless, while waiting in line I was hearing every name imaginable, such as The Raconteurs, Radiohead and others…all of which the people seriusly believed. I just laughed and told them what I'd heard so that they did't yell out "who" when the band came on. People had lined up around the corner, and once Radio 4 came out, it was clear that most people in the crowd had never heard them, or if they had…didn't care. Nevertheless, despite facing a crowd that might have appreciated them more with less of the mystique-induced hype, the guys put on an excellent and energetic performance, combining dance rock and cowbell with vocals just shy of a green mohawk. Those that let themselves loved it, and the Dwight Schrute look-alike at the cowbell pulled several girls from the crowd on stage and gave them a few minutes of fun in the final few minutes. Although I passed on the Lucy Blue pizza, stumbled upon more than a couple drug deals going down in OTR, I had a great time at this year's MidPoint, and while I can't compare it to the pre-CityBeat days when Sean was taking care of it, I had a lot of fun…

Magic Surrounds Her…
A Writing Prompt Based On the Temperance Card
A friend recently began encouraging our tarot group to write a story for our cards. This week, she gave us Sidhe, the Temperance card from The Green Witch Tarot. This is the story I drew from the image on the card:
Sidhe – Temperance – The Green Witch Tarot
She finds it in the most mundane of places,
In the petals of a sprig of lavender
Or the reflection of light upon a dark glass bottle…
And because of this gift of seeing the magical in the mundane,
She can work the most wondrous effects with what she has at hand –
A fire to warm a cold soul, a breeze to clear away stress…
But we know better –
She is a force of balance and equanimity,
All because she can see the magic in the mundane…
After completing my story, I realized that this is also the energy and the sense of spirit that I seek to evoke and embody in each and everyday.
The Temperance card – I had never felt a strong connection to it before exploring it as the story I wrote for Sidhe.

Learn Ulysses is a video course to help you take your notes, ideas, and writing from scattered to structured.
Save time with your new, improved workflows.
Quickly capture your ideas and enjoy the writing process.
Finally get a structure for all your notes.
What do you do when you get an idea? Or when you want to write something down, where does it go?
For me, ideas, notes, and writing all used to live in different apps. It was a nightmare. Check it out...
As you can see, there were too many note-taking locations. Half the time I didn't know which one to use.
This scattered note-taking system was frustrating. It lacked structure and it was super inefficient.
What I needed was a central spot to capture all my thoughts, ideas, notes, and inspiration.
Now, I had known about Ulysses for a while, and had even used it here and there. My impression of Ulysses was that it was just another minimalist writing app like all the others. I viewed it as merely part of the pile of writing apps I had at my disposal.
But then, one day in early 2017, I put everything into Ulysses...
Why? Because I'd seen how someone else was using Ulysses. I discovered new things about how I could organize and structure all my notes, ideas, and writing work. It was liberating, and I haven't looked back.
How many ideas and notes have you lost track of? Or how often do you sit down to write, but just don't know where to start?
Ulysses is the central spot for where I store all my ideas, quotes, inspiration, writing, and research notes. It is also where I actually do all my writing because underneath all that power is a simple and easy-to-use writing app.
Ulysses makes it easy to find and organize all my stuff. This app makes it so simple to go from scattered to structured, and from cluttered to organized.
Having a place for everything, it turns out, is incredibly productive. And when it comes to your writing and your thoughts, you'll also find it brings about more inspiration and motivation...
I would love to help you get there, too.
You deserve to be free to focus on your ideas, your notes, your research, and your writing.
You shouldn't be fumbling around, trying to remember which app or folder or even which device has that one thing you were working on the other day.
Ulysses is the best app for your writing, researching, note-taking, and ideas.
And our Learn Ulysses course will help you take full advantage of this award-winning app so you can get on top of things and be more productive.
As an avid Ulysses user, I couldn't wait to take this course.
It's clear that Shawn and his team have a solid grasp on what makes Ulysses special and how best to use it.
After going through the course, I learned many new things and have already improved my writing workflows. Thanks to Learn Ulysses I'm saving time and have a much stronger mastery of this app that I use every day.

— Shawn & The Sweet Setup team
Many folks have their ideas, notes, and writing scattered all over the place. We teach you how to organize all of that into an easy-to-use app — Ulysses — that will help you save time, get organized, and fall in love with your creative process.
Why Ulysses? There are a lot of great options available in this golden age of writing applications for Mac and iOS, but we believe that none of them are as finely tuned or have the degree of polish that Ulysses does.
Ulysses is one of the rare apps that has won the prestigious Apple Design Award. This app is a perfect combination of powerful organizational tools wrapped within a beautiful and distraction-free writing environment.
Ulysses provides all the tools you need to be a more productive writer while still maintaining a simple interface that limits distractions so you can focus on accomplishing your writing goals.
It provides an abundance of value for the power and organization it brings to your writing desk.
That's why we use Ulysses, and that's why we want to help you learn Ulysses and discover everything it's capable of doing.
This course gave me new ideas for how to organize my writing process.
Having great writing software and learning how to use it is saving me time and providing me with more momentum for my book project than I could've imagined.
Isa Adney / Author
I just checked out the video tutorials of your Ulysses setup, and holy crap. My mind is blown.
I loved the idea of filing away published posts in Archived at the bottom, using custom icons, and attaching images before publishing to WordPress. I can be dense sometimes. I had no clue I could do that with Ulysses.
And filters. I had zero filters set up. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You generally got me searching for more functionality I could add to make my workflow more efficient.

Here's a screencast video showing how I have my Ulysses set up, and how I use it on a day-to-day basis. More details on my organizational structure are below. 👇
P.S. In Learn Ulysses, we have more behind-the-scenes interviews to show you how others are also using Ulysses in their day-to-day workflows.
And here are more details about the groups and sub-groups I have set up in Ulysses... Plus: how I'm using them to stay organized and structured with my ideas, notes, research, and writing.
This is so good! There is tons of useful information in bite size chucks, and I learned so much about how powerful Ulysses really is. After the first video I had to open Ulysses so I could pause the videos and check out what I just learned myself!

Ulysses is an app with a deceptively simple appearance and design philosophy, but substantial hidden depths. This course introduces everything from editing basics and markup, to project management, search, sync and backup, export, and advanced subjects like integration.
Shawn's obvious love and mastery of Ulysses comes across clearly, showing not just how to use it, but why you ought to. I spend hours every day writing in the app, and I learned a few things from this course. I particularly appreciated the high production quality, and the inclusion of full text transcripts alongside the video tutorials. Thank you!

Old Star Ale and Cider House in Shoreham has been named Cider Pub of the Year for the fourth time by Brighton and South Downs CAMRA.
Landlord Richard Hasler was delighted to receive the award from branch co-ordinator Steve Pardoe during a busy Friday night at the Church Street micropub.
Richard took over the business in June 2015 and quickly added cider to the menu.
He won the Cider Pub of the Year award the following year and every year since, being recognised for his extensive range, varying between seven and 12 ciders on at any one time.
Richard said: "When I took it over, we put cider on straightaway. We decided it had 'cider and perry house' on the side of the building so it was an obvious thing to do.
"Our fruit ciders are very popular and we always have a couple of perry options, too. We also have a cider festival every year."
The micropub prides itself on serving high-quality real cider and ale, usually offering a choice of four to six beers, and has built up a great reputation.
Jenny Hasler, Richard's wife, said: "The Old Star is one of many micropubs along the south coast which is bucking the trend of pubs closing as it goes from strength to strength.
"Richard sources most of his beer from local breweries, as he says there is no need to go further afield with nearly 60 breweries in Sussex."
The micropub has twice been highly-commended in the Brighton and South Downs CAMRA Pub of the Year. This year's winner of that title was Brighton Bierhaus.
Richard said: "It is a big area with a lot of pubs, probably ten times the number of pubs as some CAMRA branches."
Sadly, Richard has decided it is time to move on and is currently in the process of selling the business but he says its future is assured with a new landlord.

#21 iPhone vs notetaker in a clinical setting
Submitted by Fleet on
Hi Ronit,Do you have to deal with HIPPA compliance? If so, you may need to ask your IT people what the security requirements are where you work. If you freelance, just make sure you set up Find My iPhone so you can do a remote wipe in case you lose the phone, and be aware that the risk of hacks rises exponentially when you have an always-on device, and be further aware that although the risk of losing or exposing client data may seem small, you will find yourself in a world of hurt should you happen to lose that particular lottery. I work in a clinical setting with an Apex, and I do have an iPhone that I pair with it.That being said, I don't do much serious work on my Apex because the keyboard is horrible and the software is paleolithic. I may ditch the notetaker next time I buy refreshable Braille. I do find that there are instances when reading and editing on the iPhone/braille display combination can be annoying: the poster who said that no dedicated keys for moving by paragraph, word, etc. was frustrating had an excellent point. However, you get some extra commands if you pair with a bluetooth keyboard, and if it doesn't sound too crazy you could get a slimline Braille display plus regular keyboard plus IOS device. This particularly comes in handy - I think - when you need to use cut/copy/paste, text selection or movement commands in a long document.I use TrunkNotes to take notes in grad school and at conferences. Cheap app, dropbox integration, markdown syntax so you can easily create headings, lists, time tamps, etc. Also iDatabase to create custom databases of whatever. Clients, if you're feeling lucky on the security front. Recipes and booklists even if you're not.Can you afford to invest in a thin, light laptop? MacBook Air or Acer ZenBook if you are feeling indulgent, maybe a Toshiba Portege if you're not. If you have something in your go-bag every day that can handle serious word processing, spreadsheets, file management, etc., you will probably be pleased by how well JAWS 13 works with Braille input on late-model Braille displays, and you won't have the limitations of just the iPhone. Also, having something like that - even a Cheapy netbook - means you'll have the all-important thumb drive or SD slot you need to remove and securely store your data.Another option for data storage is a Braille display with limited note taking capabilities. BrailleEdge 40 is the newest of this lot, but they are NOT, I repeat NOT, compatible with IOS at this writing. They're waiting on support from Apple. As has been mentioned, the Perkins Products Mini and ESYS are other options with built-in note taking. The BrailleStar 40 is one more, although the storage on that guy is internal flash and the unit is pretty bulky.Lastly, you could look at an Android device - allegedly there's third-party Braille support from Code Factory now - although I don't think Android is where it needs to be for optimum accessibility yet. At least Android tablets and handhelds let you plug in external memory and use different types of encryption. Hope this helps and best of luck.

App Name: GDE – The New Home Experience (v0.4.0.5) by PinkVenture
Price: €2,60
Description: An Android desktop with some unique features. Custom transitions, endless scroll and custom widgets like conversation and appdock.
How it works: GDE, as its description says, is a Home Replacement app for Android. GDE was the first home replacement app to bring Cube transitions (Linux/Ubuntu-like) which has been used lately in other home replacements (but not as well implemented I must say). This app brings many good features, most of them are standard in all Home Replacements and some aren't. Let's get on with the main features of this app. First we have the Personalization Menu. Here the user can set a theme (downloaded from the Market), change the Wallpaper, use Icon Packs and set animations. It is particularly in this last option that GDE stands out. GDE gives the user the option to select among different Desktop transition animations: Normal, Normal cubed, Cube, Stretch and Fade. Also, this Menu let's the user change the Menu animations: Slide (standard Android), Fade (Nexus One-like) or you can chose to not have animation at all (Menu will just appear without animations). On Desktop Settings, GDE allows the user to chose the number of screens and set the Default desktop screen (which is basically the screen where you'll be taken to if you press the Home button.) This menu also let's the user:
- Enable/Disable sensor-based rotation
- Enable/Disable autoscroll (keep finger pressed when switching screens and it will keep scrolling)
- Enable fast fling (fling fast and it won't stop on the next screen, it'll continue scrolling)
- Enable screen loop (Keep scrolling screens like in a circle.)
- Show ghost drop location (displays a ghost drop in the screen when you are creating shortcuts, widgets or when you're moving them.)
The last Customize Menu we have is the Button Settings. In this menu GDE let's user set the buttons actions. User can change the Menu-button actions, soft menu-button actions (on screen) and gives the user the option to Show Screen Previews when pressing Home button while on the default screen.) (Note: the buttons of version-2 themes can not be changed.)
The latest version of GDE comes packed with a very useful feature, App Dock on the bottom bar. The bottom bar will consist of a Menu button on the left and a Add at the far right. Between these two buttons the user has space available to add 3 custom shortcuts of any app.
GDE also gives the user the option to add Custom App Docks to the screen (only 3 apps fit on the dock) and a Conversations Widget (this one includes Missed and received calls and received messages and comes in sizes 4×3 and 4×4.)
Last but not least, when the user is at the App Drawer he can click on the little arrow pointing left that's at the top and that will take the user to an Applications Menu where the user can chose to see All Applications or create Custom Applications Folders. If you click on the little arrow one more time it will take you to a Main Menu which gives the users the following options: Applications (takes you back to your apps), Search (will start Google Search), Add to desktop (which will let the users add a widget, folder, a shortcut to the Desktop or enter the Customize Appearance menu) and Settings (which will take the user to the settings.)
In this new version you keep your finger pressed on an app and it will give you the option to Access the app or uninstall it (talk about time saving).
Opinion: So here I am, yet again, trying to make my Android look awesome. Is not that I don't like the options Android already offers me but if there's anything I can do to make the Android experience even better, I'll try it! GDE has been by far my best experience with home replacements, it is very responsive and fast and there are almost no Force Closes. I'm really into saving space and love accessibility so docks are a must for me. I love the fact that the user can chose which animation he wants to use on his cellphone (options are very good.) Also, we have a Sense-like screens preview when pressing the home key when at the default screen. The option to create Custom folders in the drawer is great and the both the Conversations Widget and Apps Dock Widgets look and work great.
Ratings :
- Speed (4.5/5) – Very fast and responsive app. Still needs to have some work done because sometimes you might get stuck at a screen when trying to scroll it and then get a FC. This is a very rare behaviour of the app.
- Features (5/5) – This app, for the price it has, is packed with features. I've tried other Home Replacements which cost the same and give the user a lot less features and options to customize.
- Theme (5/5) – Theme looks nice, based on the classic GDE but with the new launcher icon added to the app drawer.
- Overall (5/5) – Hands down the best home replacement for any android version. If I were to pick a Home Replacement as the best, it would be this one.
Pro: Lots of options and customizations. Dock. Quick Uninstall. Conversations Widgets. In-drawer Folders.
Cons: More themes that support the new drawer. Ability to change the bottom bar buttons.
Conclusion: If you are looking to change your Android's appearance I really recommend this app. Even though there aren't many themes for the latest version yet, even the stock theme looks good and is useful. Good thing about this app is that anyone can try it (supports 1.5/1.6, unlike other Home Replacements.)

Thank you so much for being there today for me. When I walked in I knew This is the Emergency Care Clinic for us…..quick, efficient, easy…….no sitting around for hours waiting to see someone to help me, all my medical records from All my doctors under One Roof, too! This is the Medical Care of the Future, without a doubt. Thank you and your wonderful Staff… happy and smiling here. Florida Medical Clinic Rocks!!!
- Eileen S.
Although Dr. Forman is considered "Urgent Care", I think I see him more than I see my primary! Dr. Forman is fast, thorough and caring! He gets you in and out without feeling as if there was a lack of care, will schedule you for a follow up to see him if he thinks you need it and always tries to get to know you as a person and then remembers when you come back at a different time! Not to mention, he used to be an ER doctor AND his hours are extremely convenient! I have been seeing Dr. Forman for over 10 years and will continue to, because I trust him with my healthcare!
- Kara M.
I have been a patient for many years at Florida Medical Clinic. Sometimes you just have to find the right fit with a doctor. I have been extremely fortunate to have found several of the best doctors there. Dr Mitchell Forman my family doctor is very kind and caring and takes the time to listen to what you are telling him. Dr Christopher Spinach is by far the best ophthalmologist in Tampa. He has been treating me for many years and I am fortunate to have found him. Last but certainly not least is Dr Juan Cevallos my pulmonary doctor. He has helped me over the years and currently and really cares about his patients. I highly recommend all three of these wonderful doctors and appreciate all they have and continue to do to insure my health.
- Holly P.
Dr. Forman grew up in Ft. Lauderdale, FL and moved to the Tampa Bay area in 1998. In his spare time, he enjoys playing golf and tennis, along with learning Tae Kwon Do with his daughter. Dr. Forman is the Medical Director of both Zephyrhills and Wesley Chapel Urgent Care Facilities.

As you know, the most important point of the DC storyline is "Who is the Boss" or "What is BO?"
Interesting prediction is here in korea(I don't really know this is popular in your country but many korean support...)
One of the DC fan object BO is correspond the novel "Dr. frank n. stein" which is same title "The Mordern Prometheus"
The reason is here
1. "...because, we try to reverse a dead man from the time" - Vermouth
"It is drug which can revive dead people..." - Hibara
"Dr. frank n. stein made a 8 feet doll with a dead person's bone and revive him" - in novel of frank n. stein
2. In myth, prometheus stole fire, so god judge the response toPandora...
"Boss's phone e-mail is the pandora, must not open..." - Hibara
and prometheus heart is eaten by eagle(=crow).
Also, Vermouth regarded boss as caution person. Surprisingly , lexical-semantic prometheus is forethought...
3. Then who is the Boss of BO?
He assume BO's real name "the mordern prometheus" and the boss is Atsusi (= Victor Frank n. stein = mad scientist)
+) in manga, Mary accord the author's name Mary Shelley...
----- There are more prdiction but it is oo many so I can't translate...
This may not true, however, I'm very appreciate that many DC fans will know of this theory...
Thanks for reading and I want to know what is your country's dominant assumption?
(This theory is from Flo, korean bloger)

RR# 2, 7839 Hwy. 21, Allenford, ON N0H 1A0
August 8, 2013
Town of Saugeen Shores
P.O. Box 820,
Port Elgin, ON
Dear Sirs/Mesdames:
Re: CAW Wind Turbine
I am writing asking for your support in requesting the CAW to remove the wind turbine which is currently on their property.
As a Developer in the area, I have had sales in the southwest end of Port Elgin fall through because of noise and health concerns created as a result of the wind turbine running. I have been advised by real estate agents that people won't even look at properties at that end of town. The value of the land and homes in this area has greatly depreciated due to the wind turbine and is making it challenging to recoup the costs of developing land in this area. This will also impact the Town in the amount of taxes and development fees it will be able to collect.
Homeowners who purchased homes from me in this area and prior to the wind turbine are advising me that they are now suffering from dizziness, vertigo, extreme headaches and vision problems. People are also suffering from high blood pressure, black spots in their vision, nosebleeds and loss of concentration, among other issues. Their health had been fine prior to the wind turbine starting up and this is not what they signed up for when they bought their homes.
We have been constructing homes in Port Elgin for many years and this has been the first time our company is opposing something such as this wind turbine. Click here to continue reading letter…..

Celebrities—they're just like us! Or at least Kelly Clarkson is. First she completely freaked out upon meeting Meryl Streep, and now she's talking about the important role wine plays in any mother's life.
At a Television Critics Association event, the mother of two, (River, 3, and Remington, 21 months, pictured above) told the press "[Kids] are challenging. Wine is necessary," and we couldn't agree more. "They're great though. Out of the mouths of babes. They say stuff where you're like 'Damn.' They call you out. They teach me," she continued.
After all that teaching coupled with diaper changes, playdates and temper tantrums, mamas deserve some R-and-R time. So if you ever find yourself feeling slightly guilty over counting down the minutes until bedtime so you can pour yourself a glass, just remember: Kelly Clarkson is probably doing the exact same thing.

Colstoun house & cookery school is a new Scottish wedding venue near Edinburgh. It's actually my favourite wedding venue – so much so, I got married there myself in October. When planning my own Colstoun wedding, I stumbled across this quaint and beautiful restored coach house thanks to a good friend of mine who scoured Instagram for days trying to find something worth considering. Colstoun House is everything we wanted, and more. I thought that I'd put this page together to help you plan your Colstoun house wedding, as a fellow bride and as a wedding photographer. Colstoun is: A beautiful restored coachhouse with light stone walls and well lit interior. A wedding venue that ticks all boxes, and suits a wedding of medium to large in size. With beautiful surroundings, really taking advantage of Scottish scenery, Colstoun is the perfect venue to host a relaxed blank canvas wedding. I have found the staff at Colstoun to be incredibly helpful with any questions I have. They couldn't be more helpful if they tried. Below are some recommendations for various supplies, ideas and tips.
The Polytunnel
The fantastic thing about the polytunnel conversion is that if it rains, this can easily be used, whilst still utilising the natural daylight. With it being a DIY venue, you could think ahead and decorate the polytunnel with bunting, flowers, paper cranes – the list is endless. What I would say about the Polytunnel is, it's beautiful just the way it is. The Colstoun team have really thought about everything and have live plants growing inside. If it does rain, the polytunnel can be a bit noisey with it being made from a plastic type material, so do bare that in mind. If it rained on our wedding day, I personally wouldn't have minded because it's so gorgeous.
TOP TIP: If you're having a summer wedding in the Polytunnel, have some cold drinks/bottled water on ice for your guests whilst they wait for the ceremony. Also make sure you leave enough time to get ready and arrive on time, so that guests aren't waiting in the heat for too long.
Photo opportunities at Colstoun
The rest of the grounds comprises of an adorable bridge with a river running under it, walled gardens, the greenhouse, the front of the coachhouse, the main house itself and then other little sections throughout the estate. With the coach house, there's the beautiful brickwork which can be incorporated into photographs if you're wanting a static background for group photographs. The house has such character that regardless of the weather, you'll be sorted for opportunities for photos and gathering space. There are plenty of little nooks and pathways to walk along and get creative. It's the perfect venue for relaxed candid wedding photography too as it will get people to relax and let their hair down, especially if they are hanging out in the courtyard. The coach house has nice light for speeches, although if you're having a winter wedding I would highly recommend having an earlier ceremony of around 1 pm so that you have time for photographs before it gets dark.
Wedding Ceremony Locations
Church: There is a church in Haddinton Polytunnel: This is my personal favourite. Getting married in the Polytunnel was a magical experience and all our guests commented on how unique it was. Outside: This is a great option too – but a risky one in case it rains. The other issue you face with an outdoor ceremony is the brightness of the sun, depending on where you are setting up. The polytunnel solves this problem by diffusing the light and providing shelter, although comes with its own challenges of heat. The Drawing room: This is a lovely room neighbouring the Thistle bedroom. This room is spacious and gets great light. If the weather is awful or you're wanting something different to the Polytunnel or outside, this is a great option. From what the team have told me, the first floor in the house can be used for canapes and mingling after the ceremony so that guests do not need to go to the courtyard if it is raining. The Library: The library is one of my favourite rooms in the house. With a moody atmosphere and many wonderful features it's worth considering if your ceremony is more intimate. The great thing about Colstoun is you can discuss your ideas with them and they'll advise on what is possible and give you help and advice. No one knows the venue better than them after all! 🙂
Furniture & Decor
Festoon lights: I chose to have festoon lighting which was gorgeous and added to the feel of the day. What I didn't realise was how much light they gave off. This was fantastic for the speeches and for the first dance, but Mackie kindly turned them off after the 1st dance to allow for the band's lights to add some more atmosphere and get the party going. Tables and Chairs: Colstoun has tables and chairs that are fantastic, and really affordable to hire. Linen you will need to source from your catering company or an external wedding styling company. If you want more of a rustic look, you can bring in external seating such as upcycled tables and benches. One of my Colstoun couples made their table tops from wood! You can hire something similar here: Virginias vintage hire Scotland
Colstoun House Photos
Colstoun Wedding Suppliers
Photography: I'd love to be considered for your Colstoun wedding. I know the venue like the back of my hand, got married there myself in 2017, LOVE the Colstoun team to pieces – and have worked there as a photographer before too. If I am unavailable, I'll be able to recommend other photographers of a similar style and approach. Videographers: My very own wedding videographer, Chris Kelly Films. This guy is amazing! He is super laid back, unobtrusive and really focuses on making a film of your day that you'll want to watch time and time again. Catering: It's worth speaking to Colstoun about this direct as I don't know what goes on in the kitchen, so they might have their prefered suppliers. Caterers I have worked with in the past who were incredible were Gourlay & Co who catered my wedding, and Regis Banquetting who do incredible BBQs. Bands: The Kicks, Franco, Numbers The Band, The Black Ties, The Honeymoons just to name a few! If you need recommendations for anything else, do let me know. I'd be only more than happy to help!

Foster extends radio deal
Toby Foster has extended his contract with BBC Radio Sheffield until July 2004.
The comic has presented the afternoon show since April, a stint that has earned him a nomination in the British Radio Awards handed out this month.
On New Year's Eve, the show came from Bosnia where Foster was appearing with Liberty X, entertaing the troops in Banja Luka.
However, he says the extra radio work won't affect his stand-up work.
"It's been a great year for me, and I'm dead chuffed to sign up
for the radio show again," he said. "Here I'm allowed to do what I want, play what I want and say what I want.
"What's the point of doing a show that allows you to talk for 14 minutes an hour between ads for sofas?"

Internment is very scary look into a near future reality that seems to be knocking on our door right now. When politicians vilinize the Muslim community, people begin to view them all with suspicion. A registry is formed. They lose their jobs/schools. And they are sent to camps.
Samira Ahmed does an amazing job showing just how the American public allowed this to happen. Between a mixture of hatred, being uninformed, and people assuming it could never happen here - they allowed it to happen.
We see these events unfold through the eyes of Layal - an American whose country turns on her for committing no crime. Viewing the life of the camp and the small rebellions leading to revolution as she experiences them was so very hard.
I think this book comes at a great time in history to show that "not doing anything" isn't any better than "doing the bad thing." Looking the other way or assuming that it can't happen here is a faulty way of thinking/acting, and Samira Ahmed shows us why. I alternated between anger at what people dared to do and sadness that anyone would be treated in this way.
Thank goodness it's fiction....for now. I only hope that continues to be the case and we never have to see events like the ones in Internment ever happen.
**I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book**

La Rösa
Poschiavo, Switzerland
When we set up a special award for places our imagination and wonder cannot keep up with, our candlelit dinner at Stazione della Posta in Poschiavo will spring to our minds. A large room looking on the garden, and a long wooden table at which all the inn's guests seat. The candles and the fireplace are the only sources of light. The smells of burning wood, of the soup of the day, of the flan, and of the apple pie, all cooked on the old wood-burning stove..
Hotel Alpina
Vals, Switzerland
One thousand inhabitants, one thousand sheep, and one thousand beds for the guests. This is Vals' rule, tenaciously guarded for decades, since the moment its thermal baths (which were already known at the time of Ancient Romans) became famous among close valleys and towns. Marco tells us about it on an autumn morning – pride flashing in his eyes – among the cosy and intimate walls of his Hotel Alpina…
Le Namasté
Verbier, Switzerland
Driving for ten minutes from Verbier and reaching Les Planards at the wonderful time of sunset on the Alps, when mountaintops and slopes are tinged with pink and fires are lit in the age-old fireplaces. Stopping in front of a wooden hut with small lights framing the pointed roof and the horns in the centre. Crossing the threshold of Le Namasté and being enveloped by a cheerful and placid atmosphere. Ordering a fondue, a Croûte Namasté and a slice of soft fruits Tarte. To us, this means being simply happy.
Verbier, Switzerland
There are various ways to spend an early-June weekend. We like to go up the mountains, in order to enjoy nature. Our latest discovery is called Verbier. A short trip from Milan and you will find yourself at the foot of Mont Fort. Crisp air, meadows showing a whole palette of greens, snow-covered peaks on the horizon, new addresses between design and tradition…
La Marlenaz
Verbier, Switzerland
A chalet laid beside a majestic rock and a fairy-tale wood. On a radiant early September morning, at the end of a walk you would take every day if you lived on this slope overlooking Verbier. Cutlery tinkling, local sparrows chirping and a lively background of French, Italian and English words. Young couples, groups offriends, children climbing the easy side of the mountain. Among alpine refreshment chalets, La Marlenaz is undoubtedly one of our favourites thanks to the excellent quality of food and service, to the grace of its decor and details, and to the bliss of its enchanting position.
Cordée des Alpes
Verbier, Switzerland
It is not among our dreams now, but if one day we should design a mountain hotel, Cordée des Alps would certainly be a great source of inspiration. The first impact is with a majestic but elegant architecture created with echoes of traditional style and precious local wood. But you will fall in love with the interior and approve every single detail, from the blankets with brick red and cream geometrical patterns to the one-time objects – old skis, ancient guides and vintage rucksacks; from the minimalist furniture to the irresistible palette of greens and beiges. On the upper floors you will find eggplant colour fitted carpets, pale grey and dark green doors…
Walig Hut
Gstaad-Saanenland, Switzerland
We are about to tell you an alpine tale. A hut built in 1786 that belonged to farmers and their cows, who still spend some nights in the big shed at the beginning of June and September. Tonight we are going to sleep here, too. Drinking the fresh water of the trough. Stepping on fragrant dry hay along easy slopes at 1700 metres altitude. Waiting for the local fondue to cook as long as it takes on the burning firewood. Sinking under layers of butter-coloured feathers and of warm fur…
Gstaad Palace
Gstaad, Switzerland
A mountain Grand Hotel should have the history and elegance of the Gstaad Palace. A subtle triumph in hospitality and service, a supreme atmosphere in every hall and corridor. Textures and fabrics arouse joy – the lift padding is the nth wonderful tartan. The cubes of yellow mountain butter, the perfect gaufres, the morning newspaper, the warm waterfall with the scent of tangerine rind, the sauna, the romantic Walig Hut and Gildo, Head Maître D' since 1968. La Dolce Vita continues in the Swiss Alps.
Klosters, Switzerland
It all started 22 years ago, in this lovely hotel in Klosters, an old village of Prettigovia, in the Grigioni area. Silvia was a young Austrian woman who came to Switzerland for work; Heribert was an ambitious apprentice chef. They fell in love and got married, and then their life took an unexpected turn. Since last year they manage and happily live (together with their son Florian) in the hotel where they first met…
Sporz, Switzerland
The memories you take back with you from a stay at Guarda Val hotel are like caresses: the magical caress of a ray of sun, the gentle caress of grass under bare feet and premium linen bed sheets, the biting caress of a sudden cold draft and hot water in the outdoor tub (you can cool the temperature down pouring in freezing spring water). The caress of a stream running outside your window and the Spa with hay beds and large quiet nests with burgundy cushions where to indulge for hours…
The Cambrian
Adelboden, Switzerland
The Cambrian hotel looked at the mountains – a majestic amphitheatre of woodland, ice and peaks from which the sun rises in the mornings -, moved up a little bit to get mountain views in every direction and stopped there, amid the pristine scenery of the Swiss Alps…
Le Grand Bellevue
Gstaad, Switzerland
This is a place of miracles and wonders. At Le Grand Bellevue they've preserved the superb class of a Grand Hotel, the only one in the exclusive village of Gstaad. A huge yellow cream cake with towers, balconies, parasols and a Swiss flag on top as a candle. It's been stripped of all the more obvious classic and bourgeois details and reinvented with pride in a refined eclectic contemporary style: shades of yellow and turquois, wall papers with birds, elegant and colourful fresh flowers compositions, coffee brown tweeds, red-purple checks and art deco lamps. Every detail makes you smile, like the gold pineapple (symbol of hospitality) on the appliques and keys, so unexpected, exotic and noble…
Les Cerniers, Switzerland
If you are looking for wonder and adventure, the White Pod is the place for you. Forget about lifts and magnetic door keys. At reception you will be given a torch, binoculars, maps, instructions on how to light a fire, walkie-talkies and a rucksack for the essentials. To get to your suite, that here they call "pod" – your "nest" we would say – you have to walk along the woods and then up a hill…
