Keep your options open this summer – I've picked out a great list of trending city break destinations!
Do you think a city break in the summer is a no-go? Well, let me try and change your mind! ;) There are several European cities that show off their most attractive side in the summer time. Whether it's the many beautiful places in the heart of the city, chilling in the sun by one of the countless bars and cafes, checking out cool open-air events for young and old or the beaches, these cities have got more than enough things to keep you busy during the summer.
The Most Stunning Summer City Breaks
Dubrovnik | Budapest | Valencia | Rome
Dubrovnik – the Pearl of the Adriatic
Dubrovnik is Croatia's most beautiful, popular, and possibly diverse port town. It is one of the top ten destinations on the Adriatic, if not in the whole of Europe. This Croatian beauty is already well worth a visit in spring, as lovely blossoming plants cover the delightful landscape. However, Dubrovnik really comes to life in the summer. The many historic landmarks in the Old Town, especially the impressive town walls and the famous Sponza Palace, are ready for a visit in the best weather. There are some fantastic photo opportunities in the sunshine. If the temperature shoots too high up the thermometer for you, you can visit one of the many museums in Dubrovnik, which are usually air-conditioned.
Obviously, sightseeing isn't the only thing on the list during your city trip. After an extensive walk through the city, a visit to the beach is the obvious choice. For example, Banje Beach and Buza Beach, which are just below the city walls, are both popular. One of the biggest summer highlights is the legendary Dubrovnik Summer Festival, which takes place every year in July and August. Visitors can expect more than 70 open-air venues, as countless streets and squares act as stages for a varied programme of concerts, exhibitions, plays, dance performances, and much more. You definitely don't want to miss this spectacle!
Festivals and more in Budapest
Budapest used to be a hidden gem, but now it's a real trendsetter when it comes to European city breaks. The Hungarian capital is starting to inspire more and more tourists with its beauty. Impressive buildings such as the towering Buda Castle, the Dohány Street Synagogue and the Matthias Church are just some of the most popular tourist attractions.
The city is even more appealing for many tourists in the summer. There's more on offer and the events are even more exceptional at this time of the year. You can take some time out and have fun in one of the popular open-air thermal baths, such as the Gellért Baths or the Szechenyi Baths. Go to a world-famous music festival for a more exhilarating experience. The Balaton Sound Festival takes place every summer on the shores of Lake Balaton, which is a short distance from Budapest. It has a great set, with visiting DJs such as Hardwell, Kygo and Robin Schulz. The Sziget Festival, on an island in the middle of the Danube, is right in the heart of Budapest. This festival is ideal for fans of pop, rock, heavy metal, jazz, and folk music. A city trip to Budapest guarantees a summer full of sightseeing, relaxing, and loads of fun!
Spain's beautiful Valencia
Popular cities like Barcelona, Madrid, or Palma are usually at the top of the list when you think of taking a short break in sunny Spain. But have you ever thought about taking a city break to wonderful Valencia? The Spanish beauty is situated in the east of Spain and it's an excellent choice of destination for a summer holiday, as it's right on the Mediterranean coast. Gorgeous parks are the perfect for places for a cosy picnic before you head off to the next square to admire the city's architectural masterpieces, like the beautiful cathedral and the Cuitat Vella, Valencia's historic heart
Of course, there's only one thing missing when you visit this coastal town in the middle of the summer – a visit to the beach! You just need to head to the edge of the city, cross the palm-lined promenade and you're already on the beautiful Las Arenas beach. Perfect for when you need to take a break from all the sight-seeing and eating. Oh, speaking of food, Valencia is where paella originated… This place is a true foodie heaven!
Cycling through Rome
Many of you have probably thought about visiting the Eternal City in the summer, but never decided to do it. Admittedly, with temperatures reaching over 30 degrees it can be a bit hot, but with the right tips, a city break in the summer can be a really special experience. For example, you can use the beautiful weather as an excuse to travel around Rome on two wheels and cycle leisurely past the most beautiful sights in the city. You don't need to worry about masses of people as the streets are relatively empty: many locals like to make their way to the sea during the summer holidays. The rush of air is a welcome change in the heat.
At lunchtime, you can simply sit in a small air-conditioned cafe and enjoy a refreshing salad and cold drink. Alternatively, you can spend the hottest part of the day exploring one or two museums, or find yourself a shady spot under a tree on the banks of the River Tiber. You'll need a break from all of the sightseeing, even in the middle of this bustling metropolis – there's just so much to do!
Summer in Sarajevo – the Balkan insider's tip
The capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sarajevo, has gained more and more popularity in the last few years but it is still considered a hidden gem among the Balkan cities. It's a relatively cheap holiday destination, and it's brimming with history. As soon as you arrive, you'll quickly notice that their painful past is still very present. The First World War and the Bosnian War in the '90s have both left behind visible traces. This makes it more wonderful to see now how the city's different peoples and religions co-exist peacefully. Churches, mosques, and synagogues have sprung up almost next door to each other.
If you decide on a trip here in the summer, you can experience Bosnia's young and dynamic life. You can stroll from bar to bar and feel the warmth and hospitality of the local people. Watch the bustle of the people as they wander across Baščaršija bazaar in the heart of the old town. You should also visit the famous Latin Bridge, which is one of the oldest bridges in the city and which hides a dark past. In the early evening, as the temperature slowly cools, you should make your way to the Yellow Fortress, which has the best view over the city, and admire the most beautiful sunset.
Barcelona at the most beautiful time of year
Obviously, I can't miss Barcelona off this list. Even though Catalonia's capital is worth a visit at any time of the year, it acquires a special shine and brims with variety in the summer. The Sagrada Familia, Park Güell and the Parc de la Ciutadella are just a few of the attractions which are definitely worth a visit in summer. Barcelona's beaches are also a must. Unfortunately, as can be expected from such a fashionable and popular city, the beaches are often overflowing with people on hot summer days.
If you would like to cool down, but don't want to squeeze onto the famous and overcrowded Barceloneta beach, I have found the perfect alternative for you. Travel instead to the more secluded Bogatell or Nova Mar Bella beaches. Alternatively, hop into one of the coolest pools in the city, the Grand Hotel Central's infinity pool, which has a breath-taking view. Unfortunately, you have to be a guest at the hotel to swim in the pool. Luckily, I've found another alternative. The Piscina Municipal de Montjuïc is a cool pool on Montjuic hill with amazing views over the city.
Summer, here we come!
Are you itching to go as much as me? Eating a real Italian ice cream in the Eternal City, sunbathing in the colourful Park Güell, or learning about Bosnia's history, are definitely welcome changes to a typical beach holiday. What do you think? :)

LP Amina & Beijing Energy Sign a Ground Breaking Agreement
Beijing Energy Investment Holding Co., Ltd. (BEIH) Caoqiao Thermal Power Plant Phase II project is intended to help significantly resolve the problem of rising district heating demand in Beijing. The plant is located inside the Beijing South Fourth Ring road within the Beijing urban district – a highly sensitive area with increased environmental protection requirements. As a result, the project must balance the need for affordable power to support Beijing's economic development with emissions reduction requirements. In order to achieve both objectives, BEIH is collaborating with LP Amina to implement NOx selective catalytic reduction technology (SCR) in the 2×350 MW combined cycle power plant. Once the transformation is completed, the Caoqiao Thermal Power Plant Phase II project will become the lowest NOx producing power plant in the world, and will represent a landmark project in the global energy field.
About BEIH
BEIH is a large state-owned investment enterprise and is wholly owned by the Municipal Government of Beijing. Its operating capacity of electricity totals 10,000 MWs and heating loads of its operating thermal power plants account for 39% of total heated floor space in Beijing. BEIH is proactive in developing renewable energy. Its renewable energy controlled capacity is 2,280MW, accounting for 26% of the BEIH controlled capacity. BEIH has made great achievements in wind power, hydropower, biomass and other clean energy sectors. Please click the link below for more information about BEIH: http://www.powerbeijing.com/.

Tracking Runs via Nike+ SportBand
Despite my day job covering how digital technology is changing media and advertising, I'm a bit old school with my running. One of the great things about running is its simplicity. You only need sneakers, although shorts and a shirt are probably a good idea. Sure, I run with a $30 triathlon watch, but that's about it. I've been of two minds about Nike+, the system that lets runners record and share workouts through their iPods. On the one hand, I've admired it as a legitimately revolutionary step toward marketing as a service, something I've written about quite a bit. Yet as a runner, it never appealed to me. Why? First, I don't believe in listening to music while running. I used to say it was for "the mentally weak." But more seriously, I think it's dangerous, not because of muggers necessarily but the more dangerous runner foe: cars. Taking away one of your senses is dumb. And it's true that "real runners" typically don't listen to music while running. Music is often used as a crutch by people who say running is "boring." Since running is the one time of the day I'm truly alone with my thoughts, this leads me to conclude those people are the boring ones. It's also an artificial stimulant. I see people surge when some song comes through their ear buds. Fine and all, but not exactly an efficient way to train.
With all that in mind, I figured Nike+ was properly aimed at the mass-market lifestyle runner. Then the SportBand came out. This intrigued me because it did away with the iPod in favor of a watch-like band. The idea of easily tracking my workouts is very appealing. On Saturday, I dropped $60 for the system. I don't run in Nikes, so I got a little pouch that attaches the sensor to the top of my Asics, rather than the built-in opening in Nike shoes. I know Nike wants to sell shoes through this system, but I can't think of many people running for years who would suddenly switch shoes. It just doesn't happen, unless you've had injuries. So far, I'm underwhelmed. The chart above shows my run today. After nine years of running, I figure I have a pretty good sense of pace. There's no way it was that slow. I ran today more at 7:30 or a little below. The graph also has all these peaks and troughs that don't make sense. It would have me believe one mile was 7:02 and another 8:13. I'll keep trying it to see how accurate it is. Right now, I think my regular watch and knowledge of the distance works just fine.
6 comments:
Yeah, can't see why you need that if you mostly run in Central Park-with its zillion USTAF measured miles--although I love geeking out with the Garmin.
FYI: fun median dist. run. If you know all the measurements and sub measurements in the park, start running a crazy route. Don't decide which way you go until you have to make a choice (e.g. coming of the 72nd st., transverse). Mentally keep track of the distances of each leg. .34, 1,.22, etc. Quit when you lose track. I think my record was about 12 miles before i lost it. Not as easy as it sounds.
Makes for an nice break from doing loops.

You guys should checkout the shoes that came out from Nike with Ipod kit. Nike and Apple coming together is a perfect combination and if this can motivate a healthier lifestyle than more power to them.

Leading Adult Dance Lessons in London 0207 700 7722
"In April, I went to Cuba and had a fabulous time -
my only
regret was that my lack of salsa dancing skills meant that
my partners needed the skills of fork-
lift truck operators
to manoeuvre me around!
When I came back to England, I decided I wanted to learn
cuban salsa; my two pre-
requisites for a teacher were 1)
they had to teach 100% cuban style 2) they had to teach in a
structured, but accelerated fashion. Basement Dance Studio
caught my eye as the teacher, Judy, had quite uniquely
learnt cuban salsa in Havana and they were a well-
established dance school; ticks in both my boxes.
I have just finished a set of private lessons with Judy,
whose talents as a teacher are unsurpassable. She has
instilled in me a mastery of the basics, which means that I
am operating way above the level that I would have been, had
I attended group lessons.
Judy is clear, focussed, patient, encouraging, and above
all, lots of fun. Her analytical approach is perfect for
those who want to do more than just go through the motions.
She exudes the essence of salsa; she knows how to swing
those hips and engage with the music -
and now, thanks to
her, so do I!
July 2005
"As someone with a lot of dance experience but with no teaching experience I found this course sufficiently stimulating and very helpful in learning a clear-
cut and effective teaching method. I enjoyed the intensive pace and being able to dance every day. This course is particularly great for women who have learned to follow well, but do not know who to lead, which is a crucial aspect of teaching salsa. All in all much fun was had and a lot was learned".
"The course at the Basement was the only one I could find that offered a nationally recognised certificate to teach Cuban Salsa. As a qualified dance teacher, but with very little knowledge of salsa, I found it a steep learning curve, but Judy was very patient and an excellent teacher. It is a very intensive course that requires total commitment for the week, but the outcome is definitely worthwhile. I would strongly recommend the course for anyone serious about teaching Cuban Salsa." Liz Scholey August 2006
"If you want to learn to teach Cuban salsa in a clear structured way The Basement studio centre is definitely the place to go. Judy is an exciting teacher with lots of energy and 101 different ways of explaining how to do something, which makes it easier to understand what it is that you are learning"
Nigel Evelyn-
White January 2006
It was well structured and paced, offering comprehensive dance training and development in salsa and good feedback during teaching practise.
Overall the course armed me with an effective methodology for teaching Salsa and an understanding on its background, variations within the genre and the creative abilities open to me. January 2006
When learning steps before partnering up I would have welcomed knowing where the steps led me in respect to my partner. I found that while I had learned the footwork and floor pattern I was often not sure how they related to my partner, or where my partner was in respect to my movements.
Student Testimonies for the Salsa Teacher Training Course
This is the fourth day of the Cuban Salsa Teacher's course. Tomorrow we do our assessment. I want to write this before I do it as I don't want either success or failure to influence my experience up until now.
It took me a year to decide to do this course, primarily because of the cost. For me that has been 1,000 euros as I travelled from Ireland. I was also worried about what I was buying into even though I had met Judy and visited the studio beforehand. At this point I can honestly say every euro was worth it.
From day one Judy Jn-
Baptiste the course tutor took us through the components of how to constructively teach a beginner's Cuban salsa course. It is intense and hard work but the course is well thought out and excellently structured. It is also very challenging on a personal level. Above all it is a sound preparation in teaching techniques and methods, essential for anyone teaching Cuban Salsa.
The studio is a lovely space to work in and Judy provides a friendly and supportive atmosphere. The course work is carved meticulously in a professional yet inspiring way. She's also a great dancer!!
I met up with two wonderful women Julia and Maria. We found our 'caf' down the road and became regulars. Great sausage and fried egg sandwich! Thank s for your company, stories and chat. We bonded through stress, lack of sleep but most of all loving to dance.
Thank you Judy and I hope to make it to the intermediate class"
Marian Sheils
I found the Salsa workshop week to be of the highest professional level.

The last city on Earth is contaminated. Now blood is the only thing that can wash it clean.
Julia is trapped inside the Blue as the Nobles fight over the few humans who are still alive. When the dust settles and she finds herself shackled to a new master, she knows she must escape or die.
Meanwhile, Cam has gathered a handful of comrades and is on his way into the Red to rescue his queen. But not all of his friends can be trusted, and not all of them will make it back alive.
The Silver Queen is the second book in Josie Jaffrey's Sovereign trilogy, set in a dystopian Europe where vampiric Nobles control the last remnants of the human race.
My review
Rating: 5 stars
I seriously love Josie Jaffrey's writing. This series took me by shock in the first book and now that I knew what to expect this time around, I was not disappointed!It's been a long time since I've been into vampire books, and I'm 98.9% sure that I'm still over them beyond this series. Jaffrey gives the human/vampire dynamic a new twist that makes it fun and interesting. For instance, the romances in this book are something out of a very imaginative and creative mind! The different relationships between humans and vampires, vampire and vampires, etc etc is a lot different than the kind I'm used to seeing and I love it. All of the characters continue to be really well written, and we get to see more of some people who were on the sidelines in the last book. The story line is great and paced much differently than I expected it to be, but not in a bad way. Somehow, Jaffrey can drag out the plot lines without making the story itself drag.
I love that the book is split into two viewpoints from characters who have absolutely nothing to do with each other (until the last 10% of this book). I am so used to forced romantic relationships between male and female main characters and I'm really pleased that Jaffrey took a different route and even gives us some ship-able (though suspicious!!!) LGBTQ+ relationships. The story is a lot of action packed in with just enough love, lust, and non-cringey romance to make everything flow really well.
This series continues to amaze me and I think I'm dubbing it my favorite from 2018. Yeah, you know what, I am. This is my favorite 2018 series. I can't wait to read the next one!

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - Federal legislation to improve sanitation and water supplies at fishing sites crucial to the heritage of several Pacific Northwest tribes has passed the U.S. House after three years of delays.
The bill now heads to the U.S. Senate, where similar legislation has also been introduced.
The House bill that passed Monday would provide $11 million for improvements at alternative fishing sites created by the U.S. government after flooding from dam construction on the Columbia River inundated tribal homes and fishing camps.
Housing near the fishing sites is limited and several hundred tribal members now live year-round at some of the camps, creating unsanitary conditions.
Charles Hudson, with the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission, says the commission has identified 18 sites that need attention in both Oregon and Washington.

Living Fully, Inside and Out
There are few things done directly these days.
In the age of convenience and technology there is nearly always a middle man or a device involved in the transactions we conduct, bringing distance between you the viewer and the experience you don't feel like experiencing.
I am proud to say that I believe that this gathering of individuals does not revel in this, the state of things, and choose instead to live directly when we can, live fully, and take our experiences in and enjoy the good with the bad.
How do I know this? Because all of our readers here strive to connect with their surroundings and not be inhibited, starting from the ground up. Taking the struggles and barbs in and living through them make you stronger with the knowledge that you can now overcome something you once dared never to tread near.
I was inspired by singer Jason Mraz's blog post "Lean into the Discomfort" that takes its title from a common mantra used in yoga to lean further into the pain and come out stronger from it in the end instead of half-assing the experience treating it like a burden. I definitely feel that FiveFingers gave me this opportunity with running but also many experiences in general.
A steaming platter of dread was a common appetizer for my runs as I would soon be experiencing tightness between my shoulder blades, stitches in my sides, wheezing when attempting to breath, and ten minutes of breathlessness after I had completed my torture session. And if I was lucky enough to keep up with running my almost 2 miles every other day maybe I could start to see muscle and notice the smallest bit of body fat receding only to come back the day I missed a run.
I now have no problems keeping tone in my muscles even running as infrequently as I do because I go about it directly and get the full results immediately after my run is done and I enjoy every minute and want more.
Lean into the Discomfort
Now Embrace It.
Embracing the fear of difficulty and knowing you will come out stronger can lead you to new places and experiences, besides, what is the worst that can happen? After all, failure is only the let down of expectations.
FiveFingers have freed up an entire way of thinking about running, about feet and overall body health, and about returning to the olde way of doing things. The old way of leaning into the discomfort of life and embracing the cram that discomfort brings, such as calluses from barefoot running to become stronger. Extra easy and ultra convenient being a way of life does not make things easier, it just makes them easier right now, and consequently much harder later.
So lean into the discomfort, and embrace the fact that you are investing in your health and well being by strapping on these funny looking shoes.
Do you feel like 5Fingers have centered other parts of your life? Or improved anything you didn't expect? Let me know in a quick comment, thanks!

Agreed – I go barefoot whenever I can, and when I can't I wear FiveFingers. I find myself feeling more adventurous, more curious, and more in touch with my surroundings when my feet are closer to nature (or even man made surfaces, really).

On Ethics and Morals
They arent the same thing, though there is a lot of confusion about the distinctions.
Both require strength of character, but ethics are more work
Morals are most often absolutes: thou shalts and thou shalt nots." Once they are defined and understood, they are pretty much set in stone -- providing the individual moralist has the stones to stand up for them.
But morals, by their very nature, arent very flexible.
In a rapidly changing world, flexibility is often desirable. Thats where ethics come in. They take into account the probability that what is good for one time and place may be entirely out of place in another setting.
Morals are rules; easily memorized; often simplistic; very often difficult to keep, because so many of them run counter to individual desires and even our deepest instinctual drives. (Any taboo on sex, for example, is messing with our psyches right where we live. Which is precisely why we need taboos on sex -- though not necessarily the ones most people are familiar with.)
Ethics are a blueprint for rational, humane behavior; toward other human beings; other living things; natural resources; the whole corner of the Universe where our actions have effect. They come from a larger perspective than morals, and they are far less well-defined. They must be re-defined, as a matter of fact, for each situation which requires an individual decision.
As I said, this is work.
And since we are so uncommonly adept at kidding ourselves, there is a tremendous margin for error.
It seemed the right thing to do at the time!
The strict moralist never has recourse to this plaint. He knows what the right thing to do is at any time. He either does it, or he commits a sin. With sin comes guilt, and guilt can be uncomfortable enough to live with that he may not commit at least that particular sin, again.
The ethicist is subject to a lot of second-guessing. For one thing, it is often impossible to get enough good data to make a wise ethical decision. Therefore it is pretty easy to make an unwise (but still ethical) one. Therefore, the quotation two paragraphs above.
Do not assume that ethics are floating in space without any points of reference at all. Like morals, they spring from some pretty immutable rules, but the rules underlying ethics are both more general and more specific. They have to do with universal reality and fundamental cause-and-effect. They require the individual ethicist to know a great deal about as much as possible, and particularly about his or her own self -- in order to keep self-interest in check.
Ethics are not larger than morals, but they come from a larger concept of the world and ones place in it.
Whereas a moralist may feel constrained to tell the truth in every situation, an ethicist may feel comfortable telling the truth only when it doesnt hurt anybodys feelings.
This isnt wimpy; it is compassionate.
While a steadfast moralist may be glad to die for his principles, an ethicist may find it more admirable to live up to his. In an extreme situation they might both be martyred, but one can assume that the ethicist will have avoided his fate until the last possible moment. The moralist may perish in a flourish of heroism. The ethicist will go grudgingly, playing out the game until the last card falls.
Ethicists dont win many medals. Even if their actions turn out to have been heroic it is too hard for the honors board to reconstruct the sequence of rational decisions which led to the admirable end result. They might have taken a lifetime.
Morality is a rather blunt instrument, but given the current level of perfectibility of the species, it is undoubtedly necessary. Most people arent equipped for ethics. We dont have enough time or the right information or were frankly too dumb. And an ethicist with poor information is likely to do more damage than a moralist with good principles.
This applies in spite of the fact that its possible to be a strict moralist and a perfectly good Nazi.
The best policy is to maintain a healthy set of morals on a broad ethical base. In most situations you will run into you can behave according to the rules and both you and your society will be better off for it. But understand that conditions may change; for example, you may find it necessary to make decisions outside of your own society, and your rules may need adjustment; even revision.
Consider a moral young person drafted into the military and placed in armed conflict. She or he may have been indoctrinated with the commandment Thou Shalt Not Kill, but the environment has changed. Killing may be necessary. Refusing to kill may no longer be moral, or even ethical, depending upon the nature of the enemy.
The military, itself, has a rigid moral structure, and usually the best military personnel are young people, easily indoctrinated, who have had a good deal of practice at being indoctrinated; i.e., moralists. It really doesnt matter much what their civilian morals are. If they are used to obeying the rules of society, they will easily adjust to obeying the rules of their new society, even if (as is more often the case than not) they run directly counter to the rules they learned from their civilian instructors; family, clergy, school teachers.
The military doesnt function very well if it is full of ethicists. It takes too long to decide to kill somebody and an ethicist is likely to get killed while he is deciding.
In a military situation the ethicist must voluntarily permit herself to be indoctrinated; must work assiduously, in fact, to develop the habits she needs to function automatically, without excessive thought, in a military society. This is not surrender. It is survival; and not just for oneself; for everyone in ones immediate unit. In an extreme situation, too much cerebration on one persons part can get everybody killed.
But this does not mean that the ethicist must abandon his ethics, or wall himself off from them completely. Nor should he. There are too many military situations outside the heat of battle which demand an ethical approach.
Adolf Hitler is supposed to have repeatedly demanded, Is Paris burning? And the withdrawing German general charged with lighting the fires knew no military purpose could be served by torching one of the great centers of Western Civilization; only resentment and petty revenge for an inevitable defeat. Even with the memory of Dresden fresh in his mind, he disobeyed the order.
This is ethics.

Determining The Best Wedding Chapel
When you are selecting the chapel where you will have your wedding event performed, you will first need to determine your budget. Many chapels offer wedding packages in prices that differ to suit all budgets, so you should be able to get a place you can afford around.
It is necessary for you to think about the location that you desire your chapel to be. There are a variety of chapels in the cities and towns, but you could be interested I having your wedding in a natural or even a dramatic position.
You can do a quick search from the internet of the available chapels, and shortlist those that are located places you would like to investigate further. Most chapels have their web pages nowadays, and thus you can view the images and details of the interior and the exterior, and get a good understanding of the style of the place before making a shortlist.
The Best Advice on Businesses I've found
You should visit the chapels that you have shortlisted and have some time with the person in charge of coordination of the chapel to ensure that you observe the facilities in the chapel keenly. Determine if the available seating and parking is enough for your visitors and also confirm about the costs charges for a general ceremony. Determine whether there are suitable musical instruments, dressing areas and if the places can easily be accessed by the elderly guests or by those with mobility impairments. Look if the chapel has an attractive garden or features that can be used for photography during your wedding. You should confirm from the coordinator if you can do video recording during your wedding.
Learning The Secrets About Events
Some chapels offer lodgings and reception areas, and so you should consider the factors to see if your guests can afford if they may want to spend a night there.
Once you have come up with the most appropriate chapel for your wedding, book the date of your wedding and check if you have any legal requirements that you are required to settle before the day of the ceremony. There are chapels that will need you to provide your certificates of birth and if you are divorced, a copy of the final papers of divorce. You might also encounter some chapels that require you to give a certificate of death if you are a widow.
Since your wedding day, I s a special day, it is very necessary that you choose a place where you will feel comfortable with. You should also ensure that you are familiar with the place. Look if there are any religious ceremonies that may interfere with the decoration of the church during your wedding ceremony.

Excellence Awards Spotlight: Sustainability Award
22 October 2019
The Sustainability Award, sponsored by Irish Water, champions engineering and environmental industries who have embrace the core pillars of sustainability throughout the planning and delivery of initiatives for communities.
Here, the Excellence Awards spotlight series focuses on the newly introduced Sustainability Award.
The Sustainability Award, sponsored by Irish Water, champions engineering and environmental industries who have embrace the core pillars of sustainability throughout the planning and delivery of initiatives for communities.
The four initiatives shortlisted for the 2019 Sustainability Award are:
• Fernhill Park & Gardens by Arup and Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council
• Fixed Electrical Ground Power by daa AMD
• Kerdiffstown Landfill Remediation Project by Kildare County Council and Jacobs
• Dŵr Uisce by Trinity College Dublin and Bangor University
Claire Lyons, capital programme manager at Irish Water, said: "Irish Water is proud to partner with Engineers Ireland to champion engineering and environmental organisations who have excelled in delivering sustainable initiatives for communities across Ireland.
"On behalf of Irish Water, I would like to extend my congratulations to each of the organisations shortlisted for the Sustainability Award and I look forward to announcing the winner at the 2019 Engineers Ireland Excellence Awards on Friday, November 15."
Fernhill Park & Gardens by Arup and Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council
Fernhill Park & Gardens is a place of international importance due to its rare and historic botanical species. Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council (DLRCoCo) purchased Fernhill in 2015 to turn it into a public park. Sustainable development was crucial when re-purposing Fernhill, including the house and out-buildings.
The first phase of the works is complete. The sustainability masterplan developed by Arup and DLRCoCo provides the public with a much-needed resource in an area of large population growth, whilst conserving and enhancing the biodiversity of the gardens.
The masterplan aims to meet the needs of the Park & Gardens from within, including delivering the energy required to support sports facilities, educational and community activities.
Waste is minimised, local water course protection conserves water and a community garden grows produce for use in the tea rooms.
Power will be provided from a combination of wind turbines, people power via exercise machines and PV arrays with thermal energy provided by heat pumps. The park will be fossil fuel free and carbon negative, making it an exemplar for sustainable development and climate change mitigation.
Fixed Electrical Ground Power by daa AMD
Dublin Airport Authority (daa) Asset Management and Development (AMD) work to deliver their project portfolio in line with the daa sustainability policy, to improve the staff working environment, the local environment for Fingal residents, as well as for the 31.5 million passengers that pass-through Dublin airport annually.
daa AMD is committed to constant sustainable improvement through the initiatives we implement. One of these sustainability initiatives sought to improve the powering of aircraft and aircraft systems while on stand.
This replaces the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU-small jet engine in the aircraft tail) or Ground Power Unit (GPU-external diesel generator connected to the aircraft).
These methods produce large amounts of CO2, NOX and noise pollution. Through research and feasibility studies, daa AMD envisioned a much cleaner electrical solution and selected Fixed Electrical Ground Power (FEGP) for installation at Pier 1 and Pier 3.
Modelled fuel consumption by energy generation method, indicates FEGP is the cleanest source of energy for an aircraft giving a fivefold decrease in fuel consumption over an aircraft's APU and a 20 per cent decrease when compared to diesel GPUs.
This reduction in fuel consumption has its own emissions savings associated with extraction, processing and transportation.
Kerdiffstown Landfill Remediation Project by Kildare County Council and Jacobs
Kerdiffstown Landfill is a former sand and gravel quarry which had been progressively backfilled with wastes by various operators since the 1950s.
Kildare County Council and Jacobs developed an innovative solution to remediate the site by installing an engineered capping system, providing a landscaped profile and improving the management of landfill gas, leachate and surface water to ultimately create a multi-use public park.
Planning permission was received from An Bord Pleanála in May 2019, followed, in March 2019, by an Industrial Emissions Licence (IEL) issued by the EPA.
A jointly developed mission statement and series of objectives focused both organisations on embedding sustainability throughout the development of the proposed solution.
The outcome comprises proposals for environmental improvement, offering social benefits to local and regional communities, delivered under collaborative leadership and sustainable planning.
Through an extensive environmental management and monitoring programme, preliminary design, meaningful consultation and positive engagement with stakeholders, and development of the planning and IEL applications, KCC and Jacobs have achieved significant success in putting this site on a trajectory from a landfill to a landmark.
Dŵr Uisce by Trinity College Dublin and Bangor University
The Dŵr Uisce project is a joint interdisciplinary collaboration between Trinity College Dublin and Bangor University.
The project developed and demonstrated the installation of a low-cost hydropower turbine in a water treatment works in rural Ireland in 2019, reducing the net energy consumption of the water treatment process by 25 per cent.
The project included the development of design software to enable the use of standard centrifugal pumps operating in reverse as hydropower turbines for water supply networks.
Pumps-as-turbines are up to 15 times less expensive than conventional turbines, making the use of hydropower in water supply systems economically viable.
The software removes a barrier to the design of pumps to operate as turbines in practice for Engineering design teams or installers.
The potential for hydropower energy production in water pipe networks in Ireland has been estimated at over 2.2 MW, but the lack of low-cost turbine technology has been a barrier to its exploitation.
This project has removed this barrier and will enable numerous sites in water networks to replicate the energy savings and CO2 emission reductions achieved here.
The Sustainability Award is one of 13 awards that will be presented at the forthcoming Engineers Ireland Excellence Awards, held in association with ESB.

i entered the workweek feeling refreshed from a long weekend of naps, good food (i made challah bread from scratch), and two rest days from running (saturday and sunday). whenever i take more than a day off from running i get bummed out, but i know that rest days generally good for me.
coach jenny from runner's world published this column that highlights the benefits of running less. while i'm not training for a full marathon (and likely never will), jenny's thoughts are on point:
As I coach aging runners, I focus their training based on how their bodies respond and handle the stress. In many cases, this means running fewer days per week. I also use this strategy for younger runners who are more prone to injury and burnout. We're all different.
the runs i have been going on this week are gauged by how i've been feeling, rather than focusing on breaking PRs and running long distances. mostly, i've been running easy. this has all been in an effort to alleviate the soleus pain i have in both legs from overuse. after 12 easy-ish miles this week, i'm happy to report that i'm feeling much better! no more whining, no more limping!
below are just a few things that happened this week:
on tuesday found eight dollars in cash in an old jacket pocket at work! this went toward a sofritas burrito bowl from chipotle. unexpected money well spent.
i took some work colleagues to peloton fitness on wednesday morning. i placed 4th!
i was able to head out on thursday with the wonderful melissa of healthy happy broads to run down the west side highway before the start of the workday.
also on thursday, i scored pairs of reebok, mizuno, and newton running shoes, and i'm trying them out over the weekend. the newton shoes are the ones i'm most stoked about. i'm a forefoot runner, which means my heel doesn't strike the ground while i run. newtons are designed for this kind of running, so i'm hoping to see a difference in how i perform. i'm planning on getting a long-ish run in on sunday around brooklyn.
while i'm psyched to get out and about this weekend, i'm also slipping into a sort of nesting mode. chilly fall weather is months away (our AC is still on full-blast these days), but i'm already thinking about cooking soups, stews and casseroles in bulk. sunday night is reserved for at least one of the three things i'm thinking about cooking up. this kale and white bean stew looks to be the one (with vegetarian "sausage" of course).
next week, i'm going to check out equinox's new program, precision running. all of this takes place on the treadmill, which i am loathe to run on when it's perfectly nice outside. but! if i'm going to be spending time on the treadmills this winter during the crappy weather days, i've got to find ways to use them right.
today's a rest day, so i'm going to channel all of the energy i have into cleaning the shit out of my apartment and rearranging ALL THE THINGS. wish me luck.

|Orto Plutonia
|Primary terrain
Ice wastelands, tors and canyons[1]
|Points of interest
|Native species
|Immigrated species
Orto Plutonia was a desolate icy planet in the Pantora system, home to a Talz colony and a number of narglatches. It was considered a protectorate of the orbiting moon Pantora until the Clone Wars, when the Talz inhabitants were granted political supremacy by the Pantoran Assembly following a brief conflict with Galactic Republic forces.
Orto Plutonia had long been a protectorate of the nearby Pantoran moon, after Pantoran scouts searched the world and declared it uninhabited. They had missed the Talz population, which lived in the ice canyons in villages carved out of the ice walls, filled with huts made from animal skins pulled over bone-frames. The Talz lived a simple existence, somehow subsisting off the harsh environment, and using the native narglatch cats as mounts and protection. It is unknown how or why the Talz colonized the planet, or why these Talz were more aggressive and war-like than their species was known to be.
During the Clone Wars, the Pantoran Assembly requested that the Republic establish an outpost on Orto Plutonia to serve as an advanced warning station for any Separatist incursions. To that end, the Republic established Glid Station, a clone trooper outpost built within a massive ice spire. The Separatists too established a temporary base in the ice, and all this activity aggravated the Talz. When the Sepratists discovered the Talz, they attacked them, but the Talz fought back. Glid Station got caught in the middle of the conflict, which ended in the Talz slaughter of all Separatists and Republic personnel on the planet. The Talz also left behind grim warnings against future trespassers - droid heads and clone helmets left perched atop spears.
The Republic sent a task force to investigate, led by Jedi Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, assisted by a squad of clone cold assault troopers. The Pantoran side was represented by the Chairman Chi Cho and Senator Riyo Chuchi, whom the chairman brought along to have some measure of authority over the Jedi. Cho believed that the Separatists had attacked Glid Station, but the Jedi investigated the disappearance of their troopers and discovered the Talz village. They were welcomed as visitors to the chieftain's hut, and Talz leader Thi-Sen explained that the Talz simply wanted to be left alone on their world. Kenobi and Skywalker promised a peaceful negotiation with the Pantorans, but the Chairman did not want to lose claim over Orto Plutonia. When it became an apparent that Orto Plutonia had a native population, Cho at first refused to believe it, and then later declared war to wipe out the Talz and keep the planet under Pantoran control.
Before the Pantoran Assembly was able to intervene, Cho led a charge of clone troopers against the Talz, which went poorly and the Talz nearly overwhelmed Cho's forces, fatally wounding Cho in the process. Cho's violent gambit failed, and when he told reinforcements under Senator Chuchi to continue the war, he died in disbelief that the Assembly called his decision out of order. Senator Chuchi, backed by the Pantoran Assembly, ceded ownership of Orto Plutonia to the Talz, allowing them sovereignty over the planet. She withdrew the Republic and Pantoran presence from the world, leaving the Talz free to live their quiet life in their ice canyon villages.
