The "empty throne" had a long pre-Christian history. An Assyrian relief in Berlin of c. 1243 BCE shows King Tukulti-Ninurta I kneeling before the empty throne of the fire-god Nusku, occupied by what appears to be a flame.[4] The Hittites put thrones in important shrines for the spirit of the dead person to occupy, and the Etruscans left an empty seat at the head of the table at religious feasts for the god to join the company.[5] A somewhat controversial theory, held by many specialists, sees the Israelite Ark of the Covenant, or the figures of the cherubim above it, as an empty throne.[6] A throne with a crown upon it had been a symbol for an absent monarch in Ancient Greek culture since at least the time of Alexander the Great,[7] whose deification allowed secular use for what had previously been a symbol for Zeus, where the attribute placed on the throne was a pair of zig-zag thunderbolts.[8] Early Buddhist art used an empty throne, often under a parasol or Bodhi Tree, from before the time of Christ. This was, in the traditional view, an aniconic symbol for the Buddha; like early Christians with the deity they avoided depicting the Buddha in human form. Alternatively, it has been argued that these images represent actual relic-thrones at the major pilgrimage sites which were objects of worship.[9] The throne often contains a symbol such as the dharma wheel or Buddha footprint, as well as a cushion.
Like the Greeks and other ancient peoples, the Romans held ritual banquets for the gods (a ritualized "theoxenia"), including the annual Epulum Jovis, and the lectisternium, originally a rare event in times of crisis, first held in 399 BCE according to Livy, but later much more common.[10] A seat for these was called a pulvinar, from pulvinus ("cushion"), and many temples held these; at the banquets statues of the deity were placed on them. There was a pulvinar at the Circus Maximus, on which initially statues and attributes of the gods were placed after a procession during games, but Augustus also occupied it himself (possibly copying Julius Caesar), building a temple-like structure in the seating to house it.[11] Thrones with a jewelled wreath, portrait or sceptre and diadem sitting on them were among the symbols used in the Roman law courts and elsewhere to represent the authority of the absent emperor; this was one of the monarchical attributes awarded by the Roman Senate to Julius Caesar.[12] A seat with jewelled wreath is seen on coins from the Emperor Titus onwards, and on those of Diocletian a seat with a helmet on it represents Mars.[13] Commodus chose to be represented by a seat with the club and lion skin of Hercules, with whom he identified himself. The empty throne continued to be used as a secular symbol of power by the first Christian Emperors, and appears on the Arch of Constantine.
Later non-Christian uses of the empty throne motif include the "Bema Feast", the most important annual feast of Persian Manichaeism, when a "bema" or empty throne represented the prophet Mani at a meal for worshippers.[14] In the Balinese version of Hinduism, the most prominent element in most temples is the padmasana or "Lotus Throne", an empty throne for the supreme deity Acintya.[15]
There are several elements found in the image which reflect its changing meaning. The throne itself is always present, and is often backless and armless. In Ancient Greek, a "thronos" was a specific but ordinary type of chair with a footstool, and there is very often a footstool in the image. There is often a prominent cushion, and a cloth variously interpreted as Christ's mantle (especially when of imperial purple) or a sudarium may cover or sit on the throne.[16] There may be a crown on the throne. There is often a book, often on the cushion and sometimes open; this represents the gospels in some examples, and in others the Book of Life, always closed and distinguished by its seven seals, following the Book of Apocalypse. There is nearly always a cross (except in images of councils), often a crux gemmata, and in later examples a patriarchal cross with two crossbars. The cloth may be draped round the cross, as may the crown of thorns, which first appears as an isolated motif in this context.[17] This seems to have originated as a victor's wreath around or over the cross, part of the early emphasis on "Christ as Victor" found in much cross imagery, but later to have been transmuted into the crown of thorns. It has also been suggested that the wreathed cross motif also was the origin of the Celtic cross.
The dove of the Holy Spirit may be present. In later versions two of the instruments of the Passion, the Spear and sponge on a stick, stand behind or beside the throne, or are held by angels. The nails from the cross and crown of thorns may sit on the throne, as in the Russian icon illustrated. If angels or archangels are included they are symmetrically placed on either side, either facing the throne or facing out and gesturing towards it; if there is a roundel they may be outside it. In earlier depictions other figures may surround the throne, for example Saints Peter and Paul in Santa Prassede, Rome (9th century). An alternative to the angels is kneeling figures of Adam and Eve in old age paying homage on either side of the throne. These are found in several large wall-paintings and mosaics, from the 12th century mosaics in Torcello Cathedral,[18] the paintings in the Chora Church, and the painted church exterior at Voroneţ Monastery in Romania of 1547.[19]
The image was one of many aspects of imperial iconography taken up by Early Christians after the Edict of Milan in 313, when the depiction of Jesus as a human figure, especially as a large figure detached from narrative contexts, was still a matter of controversy within Christianity. At the First Council of Nicaea in 325 an empty throne had the imperial insignia on it, representing the emperor Constantine I when he was not present.[20] However within a few decades an empty throne with a book of the gospels on it was being placed in the chamber of church councils to represent Christ, as at the First Council of Ephesus in 431. It has been suggested that the ivory Throne of Maximian in Ravenna, probably a gift from the Eastern Emperor Justinian I, was not made as a throne for personal use by Maximian, who was both Archbishop of Ravenna and the viceroy of the Byzantine territories in North Italy, but as an empty throne to symbolize either the imperial or divine power; Byzantine imagery at this period was sometimes ready to conflate the two.[21] A comparable symbol is the bishop's throne from which the cathedral takes its name, which, unless the bishop happens to be present and sitting in it, functions as a permanent reminder of his authority in his diocese.
In the earlier versions the throne is most often accompanied by a cross and a scroll or book, which at this stage represents the Gospels. In this form the whole image represents Christ, but when the dove of the Holy Spirit and the cross are seen, the throne appears to represent God the Father, and the whole image the Trinity, a subject that Christian art did not represent directly for several centuries, as showing the Father as a human figure was objectionable. An example of a Trinitarian hetoimasia is in the Church of the Dormition in Nicaea.[22] From about 1000 the image may bear the title hetoimasia,[23] literally "preparation", meaning "that which has been prepared" or "that which is made ready", and specifically refers to the "sign of the Son of Man" and the Last Judgement. By this time the image usually occurs in the West only under direct Byzantine influence, as in Venice and Torcello.
Some Early Christians had believed that the True Cross had miraculously ascended to Heaven, where it remained in readiness to become the glorified "sign of the Son of man" (see below) at the Last Judgement. The Discovery by Helena had displaced this view as to the fate of the actual cross, but the idea of the return at the Last Judgement of the glorified cross remained, as in a homily by Pope Leo the Great (d. 461), which was incorporated in the Roman Breviary.[24]
Although it is assumed that other examples existed earlier, the earliest surviving Christian hetoimasia is in the earliest major scheme of church decoration to survive, the mosaics in Santa Maria Maggiore, Rome (432-40), where it occupies the narrow centre of the "triumphal arch" separating nave and apse, flanked by angels,[25] a typical placement. It is shown, with a procession of Apostles, on a panel of the Pola ivory casket from Istria.[26] Three now displaced stone reliefs of the subject with other symbols are among the earliest indications of Christian architectural sculpture at this period; they are in Berlin, San Marco, Venice and Nicosia, Cyprus.[27] Elsewhere it may occupy the centre of a frieze below a larger composition in the apse semi-dome, or a position on the main axis of a circular frieze round a central scene in the roof of a dome, as in the Arian Baptistry (start of 6th century) in Ravenna. At Castelseprio it occupies the centre of the apse-side (west-facing) of the triumphal arch. All are central positions, prominent but not dominant. The Baptistry of Neon (late 5th century) in Ravenna is exceptional in using repeated hetoimasia images in a circular dome frieze of eight images, four each of two types appearing alternately: a hetoimasia with cross in a garden and an altar containing an open book, flanked by two chairs.[28]
During the Middle Byzantine period the etimasia became a standard feature of the evolving subject of the Last Judgement, found from the 11th century onwards.[29] As in the Western versions descended from the Byzantine images, this was on several tiers, with Christ in Judgement at the top, and in the East the etimasia almost always in the centre of the tier below, but occasionally above Christ. This basic layout has remained in use in Eastern Orthodoxy to the present day, and is found both on church walls and as a painted panel icon. The etimasia was normally omitted in Western versions, except in works under direct Byzantine influence, such as the early 12th century west wall of Torcello Cathedral.
Another context in which the etimasia sometimes appears from the Middle Byzantine period is Pentecost, in Orthodoxy also the Feast of the Trinity. Here a trinitarian etimasia with the dove representing the Holy Spirit may be found, as in the 12th century mosaics on the roof of the west dome of St Mark's, Venice, where the centre is an etimasia with book and dove, with the twelve apostles seated round the outer rims, with flames on their heads and rays connecting them to the central throne. Below the apostles pairs of figures representing the "nations", with tituli, stand between the windows. Similar images are found in the Chludov Psalter and elsewhere. However in this case the etimasia did not become part of a conventional composition, and it is not found in modern icons of the Pentecost.[30]
It has been suggested that the empty stool with a cushion in the foreground of Jan van Eyck's Annunciation in Washington may suggest the empty throne; van Eyck characteristically uses domestic fittings to represent doctrinal references.[31]

Coldplay Concert in Madrid to Be Streamed Online Around the World [VIDEO]
Coldplay has announced its upcoming show in Madrid, Spain will be streamed online globally as part of the 'American Express Unstaged' series, and viewable on assorted mobile devices and handhelds via VEVO and YouTube apps.
The concert, the sixth in the American Express series, will take place at 4 p.m. ET on Wednesday, October 26 on the Coldplay VEVO channel. And if you can't tune in at showtime, no worries — the the performance will loop throughout the night and be available on-demand during the 48 hours following the live broadcast.

Shortly after 1:30 p.m. today, the Walton County Sheriff's Office made this post on Facebook:
"If you experience delays at Butler Elementary, the school resource deputy is currently negotiating with a small bear to leave the premises. Thank you for your patience while we make sure your students are safe for release."
FWC spokesman Stan Kirkland told The Sun that when FWC personnel arrived on the scene, they found the bear underneath one of the school buses parked in back of the school. The men have called for a dart gun to put the bear to sleep, so it can be relocated.
A visit to the school by The Sun found a long line of cars and sheriff's deputies onsite directing traffic. Meanwhile, school maintenance personnel were blocking entrance to the back of the school.
The worker said the large black bear was roaming back and forth behind the school and not inside a fenced area.
A representative at the school said students were kept inside the school, and parents were advised to stay in their car as a safety precaution.
"We are safely loading busses one by one," Kim Sincoskie, data control specialist, told The Sun at the time. "The Sheriff's Office and wildlife control are keeping an eye on the bear. And we will get the students out to the cars shortly."
School children began being released to the long line of waiting cars about 2:45 p.m. By that time traffic was backed up all the way to Highway 98.
After students were released, Assistant Principal Meredith Spence told The Sun that when the PE teacher took his last class outside about 1:40 p.m., the bear was spotted at the Dumpster where the day's lunches are trashed. When the bear saw people, it went back into the woods.
Spence said it was a medium to large adult bear. While some said a cub was also spotted, Spence said she was not aware of a second bear.
She did say this is the first time she knows of a bear on school grounds, but school personnel have been on the lookout as there has been talk of seeing one in the vicinity.
She said that the children were brought inside when the bear was spotted and all classes were alerted to close their blinds so that class would not be disrupted. The Sheriff's Office was then called, as well as FWC.
Plans were then put in motion to reroute dismissals so that all would exit from the front of the building where they would be safe.
Spence said dismissal usually takes place at 2:20 p.m. and she was pleased with how smoothly everything went. The pre-K classes, which normally dismiss at 2 p.m., were held in the cafeteria.
Butler Elementary, located on County Road 30A, has an enrollment of 960 students.

Pumpkin crème brûlée is dangerously easy to make. Pumpkin crème brûlée is a one-bowl recipe that takes five minutes – tops – to put together and requires only four main ingredients plus some spices. The most time-consuming element in preparing pumpkin crème brûlée is waiting for the brûlée to bake and then waiting for it to chill.
Perhaps some of you are like me and have enjoyed crème brûlée as a restaurant-only dessert. Although I've owned a culinary torch for years and have used it liberally when making meringue frosting, I had never tackled crème brûlée. With its layer of crackly sugar and the hidden creamy surprise underneath, it always felt like a dessert best left to a trained pastry chef. It was just such a person who introduced me to pumpkin crème brûlée and inspired me to make crème brûlée for the first time.
A few weeks ago, I did a short demo as part of an event called Dueling Desserts at Highland, Illinois's annual art fair, Art in The Park. While the event is billed as a sword fight, it's actually an extremely friendly competition. One of the best parts about it is meeting the other chefs who show up.
The woman who you can see in the back left of the photo is Leslie Gillette, the pastry chef from esteemed St. Louis restaurant Salt. Leslie prepared two pastries for the event. The first was this gorgeous cake:
Leslie talked about decorating the cake with marshmallows cut in half and dipped in sugar. This technique is often used on cupcakes and you can read about it in Hello, Cupcake!.
Leslie also brought along pumpkin crème brûlée that she baked in a pumpkin. I HAD to sample that one! I love anything pumpkin and her pumpkin twist on a classic crème brûlée won me over. When she offered to send me the recipe, I knew that this would end my crème brûlée baking virginity.
How To Make Pumpkin Crème Brûlée
The pumpkin crème brûlée below is Leslie's recipe with my notes. The only major change that I made was to use maple sugar for the brûléeing. I adore the taste of maple sugar and it went supremely well with the pumpkin. However, the maple sugar didn't brûlée as well as plain granulated sugar would have. I was a bit bothered aesthetically by some of the dark bubbles that formed – but, man, did they taste good!!
Pumpkin Crème Brûlée with Maple Sugar
- 10 large egg yolks
- 1 quart heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- fine maple sugar you can use a food processor to make yours fine or granulated sugar for brûléeing
- Preheat oven to 300 F.
- Whisk all ingredients together.
- Divide evenly between the ramekins.
- Place the filled ramekins into a deep roasting pan or whatever pan you would use to make something like lasagna.
- Fill the pan with water to halfway up the dishes.
- Bake 45-50 minutes or until the crème brûlée no longer jiggles when you move it.
- Refrigerate the crème brûlée for at least three hours.
- Top each ramekin with a thin layer of sifted maple sugar or granulated sugar. If you are using maple sugar and yours isn't fine grain, put it in the food processor first to make it finer.
- Just before serving, use a culinary torch to brûlée the tops of the ramekins. If you'd like a thicker layer of sugar on top of the ramekins, add more sugar and brûlée a second time.

Liberty News
Healthy dining options help Liberty earn No. 3 ranking
Liberty University is the third healthiest college in the United States, based on a recent report from The Daily Beast. Scores were based on healthy lifestyle choices — alcohol-free, drug-free, and healthy eating. Information was gathered from College Prowler, an online guide created by students to rank schools.
Earlier this year, Food Management magazine awarded Sodexo, Liberty's dining services provider, with the Best Wellness Concept award for its Simple Servings station at Reber-Thomas Dining Hall.
Simple Servings offers healthy options that avoid seven of the eight most prominent food allergens. It was awarded for its consistent service of high-quality foods and for keeping student needs a priority.
Robin Quay, Sodexo's registered dietitian for Liberty, said Sodexo specifically asked the Liberty branch to enter the competition because of the team's ability to produce quality food for a campus that consumes more than 26,000 meals per day when classes are in session.
"At Simple Servings, everything we make is from scratch, using really clean ingredients," Quay said.
Some of the fresh ingredients used to create the menu at the dining hall are grown and picked from Liberty's Morris Campus Garden to ensure the highest-quality produce available.
Quay, who participated in last month's LaHaye Student Union Health Fair, believes Liberty is an ideal place for students who want to live healthy lives.
"I think we are ahead of most other schools as far as our wellness and healthy offerings," she said. "We offer more healthy foods, more healthy options, and more wellness support (like) cooking classes (and) wellness classes, and students can meet with me one-on-one."
As the campus dietitian, Quay meets with students regularly and teaches a weight-management class called the Daniel Plan. She credited Liberty's Christ-centered focus as the inspiration for the quality lifestyle options available on campus.
"Here at Liberty we have a Christian focus, and we need to think that our bodies are gifts from God," Quay said. "They are His temple and we need to treat them as such."
Across campus, Liberty has continued to show its commitment to a holistic approach to wellness — providing opportunities to grow in body, mind, and spirit. This has made the university a champion of health in the local community.

Nightmare Adventures: The Witch's Prison (iPad)
Published by
Developed by
Also For
DescriptionKiera Vale is searching for details about her birth mother. The investigation leads her to the abandoned Blackwater Asylum, after receiving a letter by a mysterious man telling that her true family built and owned the institution, and that she was the sole inheritor of the ruined place. As she begins to explore the deserted grounds of the asylum, several clues and other bits of information start to reveal a dark conspiracy, with witchcraft connections and herself as the main target.
Nightmare Adventures: The Witch's Prison is a standard point-and-click adventure with simple puzzles made for the casual audience, where the main objective is to gather all the items found on the many locations available, and use them to solve puzzles and complete other tasks. The objects are stored inside slots at the bottom inventory, as a tray that slides upwards when selected, automatically receding down when not in use to show more of the background graphics. The inventory tools have to be dragged and dropped from their slots to an interactive portion of the scenery to perform an action or complete a pending objective.
The hint button highlights objects and places required to complete a puzzle when activated, but takes some time to recharge after use. The photo button shows all the pictures taken of certain clues, displaying images of notes and other scattered pieces shown on the small screen of a digital camera at the bottom-right corner, always accessible as a way to avoid tedious backtracking and manual notation.
Some of the puzzles take place on separate screens, where a mechanism of some sort has to be manipulated directly to reassemble torn pieces of lottery tickets, move tokens over the lines of a hexagram to position each one on tips of their color, set a series of gears on a clockwork array, play a hidden object game on a computer and complete other similar challenges.

Elin is believed to have told him she will consider the proposal - but only if he includes a $350 million anti-cheating clause into the contract. Elin feels the money will keep him from straying.
A source told the Enquirer that Tiger didn't even balk at the demand, he's ready to sign the pre-nup and set a wedding date, after swearing he'd never cheat on her again.
The magazine claims that Tiger got down on one knee and proposed to Elin with a ring at Christmas. The Enquirer also alleges the couple are having sex again and a source claimed: 'Tiget stopped by Elin's rental house one afternoon when their kids were out with a nanny and they had sex for the first time since the split. 'It took them both by surprise, but they've continued to find alone time when they're both at their homes in Florida

Lili è un appartamento ampio e colorato nel centro storico di Praga!
Con i suoi alti soffitti, grande porte e vecchie finestre che si affacciano su un piccolo vicolo nel centro storico, potete sfruttare al meglio l'incantevole atmosfera delle case storiche di Praga. L'appartamento Lili è ben attrezzato per ospitare fino a 7 persone e dispone di una piccola cucina con tutto il necessario per preparare la colazione o piatti di base, conveniente per risparmiare un po '. E 'dotato di una connessione internet veloce WiFi per coloro che desiderano lavorare o pianificare nuovi tour. Per darvi un'idea della sua disposizione, si consiglia di guardare la pianta di appartamento (sulla pagina del nostro sito in più basso, a volte tra le foto). L'appartamento Lili è per non fumatori. Per gli amanti del cibo, di fronte dell´appartamento si trova il Choco Café "U Cervene zidle" che offre una vasta gamma di cioccolate calde fatte in casa, ma anche torte o bruschette deliziose ideale per una cena leggera. Lili è perfetto per visitare Praga perché si trova a soli 2 minuti dal Ponte Carlo e a 5 minuti dal centro storico di Praga, nel dedalo di stradine della Città Vecchia. È possibile raggiungere in pochi minuti a piedi i migliori ristoranti e bar di Praga.
La via Liliová è una delle più antiche vie di Praga. Ci vedrete una parte dell'ex convento della chiesa di S. Anna del 14 ° secolo. Originariamente, c″era la rotonda di San Vavrinec del 12 ° secolo che è stata distrutta più tardi dai Templari. Dopo l'abolizione dell'ordine, la rotonda fu acquistata da Giovanniti e un anno dopo venduta al convento domenicano di S. Anna a Ujezd. La chiesa è ornata con elementi gotici di valore e affreschi monumentali. Václav Hájek di Libočany, l'autore della Cronaca ceca, ci è sepolto. Accanto al convento si trova il sede U Vořechovských - "Dagli Nocciola" - del 17 ° secolo come un distintivo con la nocciola, che viene spesso erroneamente messo in relazione con il proprietario - Bohuslav Voříkovských di Kunratice. La via Liliová anche ospita un fantasma di Praga, il templare senza testa che appare su un cavallo bianco. Sembra che si innamorò di una bella ragazza che passava ogni giorno lungo le mura del convento. Prima che potesse decidere tra la vita religiosa e la sua amata, la ragazza divenne adulta e sposò un'altro. Il Templare impazzì e poi fu decapitato per i suoi atti dementi. Si dice che l'unica possibilità di rilascio per lui è quello di fermare il suo cavallo bianco e forare il cavaliere senza testa con una spada.
Utilizzo dell'appartamento e rumore: vi impegnate ad aver cura dell'appartamento e rispetto per i vicini, in particolare attenendovi al divieto di fare rumore tra le ore 22:00 (10 pm) e le 7 a.m. (la mancata osservanza di tale divieto può comportare una multa di 100 euro che saranno decurtati dalla vostra cauzione, qualora i vicini si lamentino di voi e la polizia testimoni contro di voi). Praga ha molti luoghi ideali per festeggiare fuori, e vi auguriamo di goderne al meglio - il appartamento ha la perfetta locazione per questo ;-)

Nice and clean and large rooms in the centre of Prag. Unfortunately, Prague is predominantly used as a party mile all night. So there are always some drunken idiots around, which take your sleep without any regrets. This is, what you must be aware of!

Every correspondence I had with the rental company was quick, efficient, and helpful. The apartment is close to many restaurants and all the major sights of Prague. It's also close to a Tram stop to take you even further beyond. The apartment was a perfect space for my family. We have three small children (6, 3, and 1). We were able to rent a baby bed that was there on arrival. We had two beds for other two and a couch as well. The kitchen space was nice and we were able to get the kids fed before we headed out for the coffee shoplift across the street! I really enjoyed our stay here!

Apt central PragueWien Austria, 16. October 2017 Soggiorno per 3 giorni in September, 2017
the apt is nice, old, but clean, just in the centre of the city: that was very good. But: first problems with booking the money from Credit card because they wanted to know the PIN. and second problem: the person to meet us when arriving was 15 min late and to return the deposit when we wanted to leave 15 min late again !! it was not raining and not cold at those days, but uncomfortalbe: and not necessary.
Beautiful PragueEdmonton Canada, 12. October 2017 Soggiorno per 5 giorni in September, 2017
We had 5 days and nights in Prague, apron arrival our flat was not ready, but that was due to an early flight in and it was already noted that the flat would not be ready until the afternoon. The location was quite amazing! Right in the middle of the old town. The building itself was stunning and surrounded by restaurants, bars and pubs. All local attractions were within short walks. The space was fantastic, offering everything you could want in a home away experience. The only thing that I'd say for anyone staying here is, consider bringing ear plugs for the night, as it is wonderfully situated, it can get very loud in the night, but that aside, everything else was perfect. I would still recommend this flat to anyone. It was a grand experience.

This was a familly trip and enjoyed the easy location of the apartment, we hardly used the apartment appart from sleeping. Overall good. There where no toiletries at all in the bathroom so we had to run looking for some. Remember even though is an apartment many people dont travel with their own shampoo or shower gel.
The only good part is the locationSanr Cugat del Valles Spain, 23. August 2016 Soggiorno per 4 giorni in August, 2016
Informed company that we'd be arriving in Prague at 7.00 in the morning on overnight train from Krakow, requested early check-in. Not a chance, check-in was only moved from 4.30 to 4.00, which hardly helped. Had to leave luggage at the train station because company won't store it, then walk back to get it. Result: extremely tiring, frustrating day. No other place I've ever stayed at, apartment or hotel, has such a late check-in and won't store luggage. In addition, while sheets and towels were clean (though quite worn), everything else was dirty and/or greasy. Furnishings almost aggressively cheap and charmless. Ladder and broken drying rack stuck in corner of living room. Stained walls. Paint chipped. Locked cupboards in every room, signs everywhere saying don't.
Response from RENTeGO24. Agosto 2016
Thank you for sharing your experience, Inmaculada. I checked your reservation and in the first email we informed you that there is already a reservation just before yours and the early check-in will not be possible, however that you can leave your luggage in the apartment during cleaning from 13:00. We also offered you to leave your luggage in our private luggage storage in Ujezd 5. We will definitely talk to our team considering the cleaning in order to find out what can be improved. However our apartments are most importantly available for a very good price considering its location, so it's important to keep this in mind while evaluating its equipment, which is mostly basic, but sufficient for anyone who's looking for central, yet affordable accommodation.

Pleasant stay in Prague, very nice city, but really too beasy in July.
Appartement large and confortable, although a little bit old. We missed a oven in the kitchen. We appreciated the inside and mobile internet.
Anyway, best situation to visit the city, in the hart of the centre.
People in restaurants and shops not friendly with tourists.

Wonderful City!Melodee H. a partire da Chamberlain United States, 01. June 2016 Soggiorno per 2 giorni in May, 2016
The apt was in a very convenient location to be able to walk anywhere. The service was always prompt and accurate. We appreciated that so much. However, I would NOT recommend driving a car in to old Prague. We ended up driving our car to the airport and leaving it there for the couple of days we stayed there. We took a taxi back and forth which made us feel much better. The apt. was in the area where there is a lot of late night partying. It did not bother us at all but for someone that wants peace and quiet and relaxation, this would not work.
Response from RENTeGO29. Giugno 2016
Thank you Melodee for your feedback! That's very true, having a car in Prague is more of a burden, because parking there is not easy and since our apartments are very central, you can walk anywhere and won't have to use the public transport at all. Otherwise we hope you had a great time and we would be happy to accommodate you next time :)

Thank you very much Cyrille, that's true that the apartment LILI can be sometimes noisy, since it is located in the very center with many restaurants in the neighbourhood. Therefore for any clients who prefer calmer locations we would recommend some of our apartments which have windows facing the courtyard, for example Karolina or Kaprova. Good to hear that you were satisfied with our partner driver, we will certainly let him know :)
Just what was requiredCardiff United Kingdom, 06. April 2016 Soggiorno per 2 giorni in March, 2016
I stayed at Rudolfinum and was pleasantly surprised by the property. It was just what was required and was clean and tidy and value for money. I would certainly stay there again!

A recommander sans hésitation.

We loved oure stay in prague. The location is very good, and there is all one needs from a vacation home. One downfauld is the intercom. We had some unwelcome call on it duing the night. We hope that there will be installed a new intercom with a mute butten. besides this miner detail we loved oure stay.
Response from RENTeGO20. Novembre 2015
Thank you for your nice comment, Iben. We are sorry that you were disturbed by the intercom, there is always a possibility to take the phone off the hook, if you're not interested in using it. Otherwise we are glad that you had a pleasant stay and we would be happy to host you again in our beautiful city!

Seul bémol, l'appartement n'est pas bien insonorisé, mais heureusement le quartier est calme. Si vous souhaitez faire un bon repas gastronomique, je recommande le restaurant situé juste en dessous.

We are a family of six. Rentego let us leave our bags for the time before we could access the property. The property was clean and in good order and with clear instructions for everything in 3 languages.
PrahaRoy S. a partire da United States, 05. November 2014 Soggiorno per 6 giorni in October, 2014
Excellent location, spacious flat. However, the furniture is very basic (IKEA) and does not really suit the ambiente. There are ladders behind the wardrobes and a dying plant. The bathroom would benefit from modernisation eg glass rather than a plastic shower curtain which has fungus colony and a new shower head. The flat is full of plastic sheets with instructions. The city guide is from 2006. There is no TV or DVD, it would be helpful for those travelling with children. The flat is generally quiet apart from Saturday night which was very noisy.
Otherwise the flat is very central and convenient to explore. Good communication with RenteGo.

The apartment is in old building (well, its in old city). But it was cleaned and compared to exceperiences from Barcelona i.e. You could get more with same price. Excellent location. Some noise coming from outside. Nice choco-cafe just in front of building. 5-10min walk to all basic sights and malls.

Large group travelling on a budget.Vicky W. a partire da ---- Australia, 18. July 2013 Soggiorno per 3 giorni in July, 2013
We were a group of seven on a budget and this accommodation was excellent in terms of location and price. The booking process was very professional and helpful. The only negative thing was that there was dirt on the bedroom wall, which should have been spotted and cleaned and the shower tiles could do with a good scrub. There was plenty of room for the number of people in our party and there was a separate toilet, which was more convenient than the other accommodation we'd had on our travels. Car park tip - we had a nine seater car, which didn't fit in the undercover car parks. Go for the park and ride at Nadrazi Holesovice. It cost 120CZk per day, which is about AUD$6 plus the cost of the metro to get back to the accommodation - Staromestska. Also, the info at the apartment was outdated. The mini marts were either no longer open or the hours had changed...and they mostly sell alcohol. There's a Tesco on the corner of Narodni and Na Perstyne.

Great value, stellar locationRebecca C. a partire da United States, 30. June 2013 Soggiorno per 4 giorni in June, 2013
Clean, basic sturdy Ikea furnishings, secure, bright, well-equipped (unless you want a TV, and why on earth would you want a TV when you're a tourist in Prague?), very helpful rental agency that cheerfully accommodated our unexpected changes in travel plans and a last-minute need to find a new driver to get us to the airport on time. The place is littered with beds (up to 8, I think) and would be perfect for a large family or student group, as long as they respected the no-loud-noise rule. New fans in each room dealt successfully with short-term heat wave. Location was wonderful, minutes from Old Town Square and Charles Bridge, and if your sense of direction is poor, Prague is a wonderful place to lose yourself in. The only glitch was noisy drinkers outside at a local pub one night, which forced us to close the windows and use the fans. Definitely recommended for the budget-conscious and clean-conscious traveller.

Comfortable apartment in great location in Old Town PragueDi H. a partire da Orroroo Australia, 20. May 2013 Soggiorno per 6 giorni in May, 2013
Our family of 6 (4 adults and 2 small children) rented the Lili Apartment for 6 nights during our first visit to Prague. We found the location suberb, within easy walking distance of Charles Bridge and many of the popular Old Town attractions. The furniture was generally minimal, but adequate, and the beds comfortable. Bedding consisted of 3 singles in the bedroom, with another single and a lounge folding into a double bed in the lounge area. The children were well catered for with a high chair, cot and baby bath provided. Although small, the kitchen provided adequate cupboards with a good range of plates, glasses, cutlery etc. Hot plates, microwave oven and a fridge were provided, although we would have used an oven as well if we'd had one. The dining area was quite adequate, although narrow when seating 6. The apartment was quite secure with key unlocking to main heavy metal door, and another internal door to a shared hallway. A code number was then needed to access the apartment. We felt this was very safe and secure. Heating was provided, but we did not notice any air conditioning. We are wondering how we would've coped in there in hot summer temperatures. Free WiFi was provided, and greatly appreciated. Maybe a TV could've also been provided, although we barely missed it. We would have no hesitation recommending this rental group to anyone as their communication was always top rate, and the information provided was always prompt and thorough. A very professional operation. Lili provided us with a wonderful base for our exploration of Prague and several outlying areas of the Czech Republic.

It was a really good trip. The flat was near to Charles Bridge where we have celebrate the new year's eve with friends. The equipement in the apartment was correct but we have experienced some troubles (no internet the first day, the toilet flush was dropping all day long and no heating machine in the main room) but nothing important. Besides it was not so clean... But the service RENTeGO offered us was impressive: contacts in case of trouble are really easy!

You cannot beat this apartment's location! It was just so easy to get everywhere in the city! The Charles Bridge was just a ten minute walk, if that. Old Town Square was another ten minute walk, and there were so many restaurants, bars, and shops all around. It was really a great place! The only complaints we really had was that the shower leaked all over the floor and we had to use the limited number of towels were given to mop that up. Also, I wish the towels were better. They were very rough on the skin from many many washes I imagines. Other than that though, a fantastic place! Beds were very comfortable, the whole place was very clean, and just such a great location. I cannot say enough about the wonderful location!!

Random Walk: Mock Operating Room
Students tried their hand at surgery in a mock operating room in a Thayer classroom for the final sessions of ENGS 165: Biomaterials. "The students are taken through the process of repairing a shattered proximal humerus and a broken radius using Locking Compression Plates. The surgery is led by an engineer from industry, and the instruments, plates, and hardware are the same sets that are used by surgeons in the operating room," says Professor Douglas Van Citters '99 Th'03, '06 (back row, right). "Students learn about design principles, bone healing principles, and human factors — how do you put such a small screw in or drill a straight hole?" The approach makes an impression. "Although we all managed to implant the plates on the bones properly, we would make terrible surgeons," says Monica Martin de Bustamante '08 Th'09 (second row, second from right). "If there had been any soft tissue around, we would have destroyed it!"

I went to tour a local chocolate factory, and things did not go as planned. The place was hopping, all of the walk-in spots on the tour were taken, and they didn't take reservations in advance. My disappointment was lifted by free samples and a nearby brewery, but I remember someone at the factory saying, "There has to be a better way."
Inspired to create something that would help them, I e-mailed the factory. Two weeks later, I had built a reservations platform in Rails 5, and they were using it.
Rails lets developers focus on the hard stuff. Few other frameworks would let me completely focus on business needs and get something out so quickly.
What's the hard stuff?
Here's what shouldn't be hard when first building an application:
- Accounting for low-bandwidth connections
- Supporting a wide array of browsers
- Implementing a test framework and writing tests
- Choosing and configuring build tools
- Setting up a database
- Setting up hosting
- Adding basic security (CSRF protection, user authentication)
- Making big decisions about JavaScript – choosing an MVC, for instance
Here's what should be hard:
- Creating a great user experience
- Making sure the features make sense for the intended customers
- Defining a data model that makes sense
- Writing maintainable code
Working on an app on nights and weekends taught me the value of focusing on what should be hard and letting Rails handle the rest.
CSRF protection? Stick to Rails conventions. Testing? Use RSpec, a de-facto Rails community default. User auth? Add a gem like Devise. Build tools? Use built-in Sprockets. Hosting? It's a breeze with Heroku and Rails 5. Accounting for low-bandwidth connections? Try Turbolinks (more on this below).
Staying focused on business needs, and letting Rails handle the rest, was the only way to ship.
Rails' nice surprises
I was overseas recently and the internet sucked. Many web sites didn't load at all. Some would show a layout but no text; others would show a nav bar and nothing else.
My reservation platform loaded quickly. Navigating the app was zippy.
How was this possible? Believe it or not, the improved Turbolinks. Avoiding full-page reload more than halves load time on bad connections. It took no effort on my part; it's a Rails default.
A time and a place
A couple of years ago, I implemented React at Cook Smarts, a meal planning app. It transformed our JavaScript from spaghetti to well-structured, understandable code with fewer bugs.
Nonetheless, most of Cook Smarts remained vanilla Rails, views and all. We used React surgically, only when a very high level of interactivity was necessary.
Why stick with vanilla Rails? To keep the focus on what should be hard, building new features, rather than restructuring our app to JavaScript MVC with questionable benefits for users.
Frameworks like Rails get this. Next time you build an app, consider a framework that keeps your focus on what should be hard.
