I purchased a camera set up for my bird table and had a slight problem getting it to work. The technical guy at SpyCamera soon put me right . I've since bought an extension cable to the camera. The service and delivery on both occasions were second to none. Highly recommended.
SpyCameraCCTV have always lived up tp my expectations which are high.
Prices,service,aftersales. are all top class.Iwould recommend them to any one.
The staff seemed very helpful and knew all their products and what was best for our needs.
I purchased 3 cameras, Dvr and extension power cable for 2 of the wireless cameras. Arrived safely packaged and 24hr courier. I received confirmation of order and was kept fully up to date with the delivery tracking via email from their staff.
Had an issue work with extension cables not powering the 2 cameras, the correct cables was ordered and sent. I informed Neil one of their advisers of my findings Isolating the problem to an incompatible cable. I swiftly received an email from Neil to say they have done tests on These cables and that model of camera and confirmed my findings. I was informed that they found a type of cable that could be spliced into the original power cable thus extending it. Neil kindly posted enough cable free of charge to complete my installation. All works well and can't fault this company. The level of advice and support from transaction through to aftersales care is in my opinion above and beyond the normal. I highly recommend these guys on their knowledge in there field and support care. Nothing seems to much hassle. I will definitely be using again. and no I don't work for them, lol. I've never attempted to install cctv in my home before but found it quite straight forward with advice.
This is the second camera I have bought from SpyCameraCCTV, went straight back to the website for this camera. They are easy to install and great for watching the wildlife. Really well packaged, lots of information and helpful staff at the end of the phone. Would highly recommend this company to any of my friends.

Bought a spy camera no bigger than a zippo lighter with and extra long life battery that gave me 24 hour battery powered coverage. Delivered the next day and easy to set up.
Being a novice I had some questions. I rang the help line and got through without having to wait in queues recieved professional advice and clear english.
The picture was crisp and clear and I caught myself a thief BRILLIANT
Highly Recommended
I must let you know about a great company called Spycameracctv. I needed to set up two dvrs each dvr carrying 8 cameras each at two sites. So in effect 16 cameras over two dvrs at two different sites 32 cameras in total. I wanted to view all of these over the internet whilst in the office or out on the road using an iphone. This was achieved very quickly and efficiently. The guys were very helpful in suppling the right kit to install and then helping me set up the remote access stuff.
So much so that I then purchased a 4 channel dvr for a residential property with a constantly changing ip address, not to worry the guys helped through this as well.
Give them a call, you wont be disappointed.

I have purchased these cameras for use in a domestic residence. I have not yet had the opportunity to set them up or test them but I feel assured that the sellers are interested in their customers, and would help in the event of an unexpected problem, or deficiency. Price is very good for a 4 camera system, though i will need a recorder an decent monitor eventually. Company seems to have a good range of products and, when all set up and working, I would be interested in further purchases.
My order was dispatched vey quickly, which was very much appreciated but once I checked my order it was not suitable.
After almost a week I am still awaiting information on how to return so will just have to put a note in the original packaging asking for a refund and then check my account to see if this happens.
Very disppointed!
I ordered and although not asking for fast delivery it came sooner than I could possibly expect.
I have not used the camera yet as it has been spirited away to be given on my birthday. The thing is that I have no worries as the support looks excellent if I need it.
Excellent range of products and 1st class order and disptach process. Kepy me up to date with order process.
Can't believe I ordered this from you on a Saturday when you are shut and received it with nothing missing and lovely boxing and instructions on the Wednesday. Tried it all out and as you say on your video help fantastic quality. Will definitely be back to you in the future for more cameras. Well done Spycamera keep doing what you are doing. Everything you say happens and works as per your instructions megga happy friends :)
Superb equipment easy installation, full instructions, unlike other equipment sold on eBay.
I had emails and texts providing updates from the minute I ordered the camera, I even got a text to say it had been left with a neighbour when I wasn't in! Excellent service and product.
As we had put up a bird box in our garden, I purchased a bird box camera as a wee surprise for my wife. We initially had some teething problems with the reception that was down to router/wireless interference. A quick email with very explicit but simple instructions on how to change the channel and problem solved. We are now watching a 'coal tit' building a nest in the box and hoping for little ones in due course.
A great little camera, great service and well worth the money.
the ordering, processing and delivery worked very clearly and efficiently, and the product (only a 3 pin adapter) did what it said on the tin
Very good value but the battery mode for the camera does not last long - perhaps a couple of hours ++. I also think that these cameras should be pre-fitted into various other items other than OVERPRICED clocks. Thinking all customers are stupid.........camera in clock - over £100 !!
DIY: clock between £5 & £10; camera less than £20, maximum £30 and a tad of glue !!!!!!!..
Hi Bill If you want to watch birds ( the feather variety ) get your camera set up from these people and you want go wrong .First class service.
Ordered one day, received the following day. Battery as described and just what the doctor order for the job in hand. Highly recommend.
I am highly impressed with the quality and simplicity
I am watching and recording a nesting Robin with 5 eggs
really interesting. I have no problems in reccomending this to anyone
with same interests.
Prompt delivery, a very good service, and very helpful when I made an initial phone call requesting information.
Fantastic camera and super simle to work, had itset up and recording in under 10 mins.
Peace of mind to protect my car from the scum that spent months scratching my 13 year old car but when my new one arrives in 6 weeks I feel safe knowing that its got this camera watching over it.
Very pleased with my purchase....exceeded my expectations! My first purchase was the wireless version but sadly had interference from an outside source. This was returned for full refund and a wired camera sent which works perfectly. The guys on the phone lines, both sales and technical were well informed, very helpful and a pleasure to deal with!!
After viewing the Web Site which I found easy to navigate and use.
I Found the article I reqd and the specifications and needed,I Placed the order
I chose next day delivery and It was deliverd on time in the ONE Hour time slot
which was good.
I un-packed and set it up with no problems I was impressed with the quality of the Item
and ease of use I would recomend the company and the cctv camera I bought
Arrived within three days and very pleased with quality and performance of CCTV camera. Would use again.
The service is very good and the product does what it says. With instructions in real english it is easy to install.

I found Spycamera a great site, wasn`t sure what I needed, so I phoned them, they were so helpful and friendly. The speed of delivery was outstanding, and as I ordered over Easter, they included a pack of easter eggs !, how good was that !. Unfortunately, the goods I ordered weren't suitable for my needs, but no problem, they emailed me, (not the standard type, but personal, friendly ones) every step of the refund process,. Would definitely use them again.

this is really an update to a recent review I've left. I had a small problem with the item that I ordered. it was the first time I'd ever used the company.naturally I contacted SpyCamera and I have to say that they were a friendly and very helpful bunch of people.
as far as I am concerned they went above and beyond what I expected. my original order arrived very promptly, as did my exchange, and I was really pleased that I received a choice of delivery dates and advice on the day of the likely delivery time for both items.
I'm extremely pleased with the whole experience and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending anyone to use this company.
We Ordered the wireless cctv camara and it was delivered in 24 hours what an Excellent service. Got it up and running in minutes in our duck house to watch the ducklings hatch . Its such a fantastic camara and we are so so pleased with it. We had a clear picture immediately even through 3 walls. we Will be using spycamaracctv again and have already recommended you to friends and family . Can't wait for the ducklings to hatch now because we know we won't miss one minute . Thankyou very much :)
Got a waterproof spy watch, not had that much time to use it so not really able to give a "full" review. But some initial comments below:
Instructions - Chinese English - poorly written and a bit difficult to follow
Product - Have managed to work my way through taking video & images, and cannot fault the quality of them.
Seems to be a good product but it will take a lot of trial and error to get it working right
As to the company selling the product.
Just 1st class communications from order to delivery - 5 star
I do not say that lightly, but their communications were just excellent
Excellent service and very helpful technical support
Bird box cam very nice piece of kit - worked straight out of the box. You'll need a capture card or USB device if you want to use it on the PC - I already had a Videomate C200 - works a treat

Beekeepers in eastern France were upset to find their bees were producing honey in unusual shades of blue and green. A nearby biogas plant processed waste from an M&M's factory. The bees were snacking on the candy coating. The waste treatment plant says it's storing the candy waste more securely.

« Previous Product Next Product »Let's Go Read! An Island Adventure is a vocabulary tutorial program designed for use by children with learning and other cognitive disabilities and physical disabilities. This program incorporates speech recognition software to enable students to direct computer actions using their voices. They can also listen to their own voices as they read the 12 interactive books incorporated into the program. This comprehensive program for beginning readers uses both phonics and whole language concepts, offers more than 175 lessons, and introduces more than 400 vocabulary words. Over the course of the lessons, students meet a raccoon named Robby who needs to read and his friend Emily the squirrel. Together they embark on an interactive adventure in a flying machine called the Reading Rover. They travel to Letter Island where they meet its inhabitants--the letters of the alphabet who will not come out to play unless students call out their sounds. As they progress through the reading adventure, students are rewarded with a series of 12 original illustrated inteactive books, each appropriate to the level achieved. While reading the books, students apply the skills they have learned and they can record themselves reading any book. Once read, the book is displayed on the student's bookshelf and can be re-read at any time. The software offers both guided and self-learning opportunities through more than 35 activities found in the Reading Rover, in the clouds, or in one of four areas on Letter Island: the beach, the jungle, the farm, and Vowel Village. These activities assist children in learning to recognize upper- and lowercase letters, mastering individual letter sounds, and identifying letter sounds within words. While flying from place to place in the Reading Rover, students encounter Word Clouds which require them to say aloud the words they see. When the word is spoken properly, the cloud disappears with a "poof" and the flight continues. This activity offers practice in sight words and assists in mastering frequently used words. Since the Reading Rover runs on the fuel of the "power of words," users are required to visit the Word Power Station to re-fuel. To accomplish this, they are challenged to build simple words using letters and sounds learned earlier in the adventure. As the adventure progresses, they move on to sentence-building activities that strengthen comprehension and vocabulary. The program also includes a Grow Slide that shows a complete list of all topics covered and the letters in the order in which they are taught. As students successfully answer activity questions, the Grow Slide automatically advances to new letters and more challenging questions. Teachers and parents can also manually change the position of the Grow Slide to change a child's location in the adventure and monitor individual progress. Also included in the software is a "Dear Parents" CD-ROM movie addressing the educational underpinnings of the program and discussing the role of parents and teachers in helping children to become successful readers. The School version also includes a Teacher's Guide and toll-free technical support. COMPATIBILITY: For use on IBM and compatible computers. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: Windows 3.1 or Windows95 or later, 486 or Pentium or better processor, 3 megabytes (MB) free hard disk space, 8 MB RAM (16 MB recommended), Super VGA monitor with 256 colors or more, double speed or faster CD-ROM drive and a Windows- compatible sound card. Speech recognition requires Windows95 or later, a Pentium or better processor with 23 MB hard disk space, 16 MB RAM, and a 16-bit sound card with high quality microphone input. A Touch screen is optional. WARRANTY: The School version offers a lifetime disk warranty.

The Golden Bears played a fast and disciplined final to win the PAC Sevens Rugby Tournament on Sunday, beating Utah, 21-12, the North Athletic Field at UCLA. California beat the Bruins in the semifinal earlier in the day on its way to the tourney title.
The Bears exited the weekend with the best points differential (+124), most total points (167), most tries (27) and fewest points allowed (43) among the 12-team field. Cal has now won three of the four tournaments it has entered this fall, and was a semifinalist in the fourth.
"UCLA really did a fine job hosting this tournament," said head coach Jack Clark. "All the teams are really appreciative of their efforts and execution."
In their first meeting in 7s since the quarterfinals of the 2011 Collegiate Rugby Championship 7s, Cal relied on a balance of senior leadership and youthful poise to beat a Utah team that itself offered an intriguing combination of size and speed.
"We knew that they have some steppers and we wanted to stick our game plan and the pattern we know, hang on to the ball and recycle it," said freshman Russell Webb, who made all three of Cal's conversion attempts in the final. "We got tired too but we're happy that once we took a lead, we could hold them with our defense."
Captain Seamus Kelly got Cal going with his third-minute try to finish a phase through the hands going from right to left. Senior Anthony Lombardo ended the Bears' next scoring sequence going from left to right and Webb's conversions made it 14-0 at intermission.
Utah still had hopes of drawing the Bears into a more chaotic style in the second frame but Cal did not take the bait. Sophomore Nicklas Boyer kept it going for Cal with his try two minutes into the second half and although the Utes were making their mark with tough tackles by players like gridiron crossover John Cullen, the clock kept ticking on Utah's chance to mount a comeback.
"I'll take the hit if it draws a man and puts him through," said Kelly of Utah's physicality. "I'm definitely on empty but we shouldn't be any other way after a long tournament."
Nata Lauti put Utah on the board with his try and conversion and the Utes' Drake Meyers ran in a second try soon after, but Meyers' quickly-taken conversion went wide left to leave a nine-point cushion that proved to be the final difference.
"It was a team effort, all of us diving on loose balls and putting our heart into it," said Boyer. "I did not expect to be playing in the final but things happen and you've always got to be ready."
"Cal played well enough to win and we didn't, that's what it comes down to," said Utah head coach Blake Burdette. "They were the better team today and it was a great tournament."
The Bears had to make do on Sunday without junior Paul Bosco, who got dinged up on day one of the tournament, and that opened the door for Boyer, who handled halfback responsibilities in the semi and final.
In the preceding semifinals, UCLA's Race Noeldner got his team out to a 5-0 lead in the second minute before Cal's Andre Coquillard and Andrew Battaglia scored tries, the latter converted by Russell Webb, to give the Bears a 12-5 halftime lead.
The Bruins refused to go quietly, holding up Coquillard in goal to prevent another try, but Cal's patient response to UCLA miscues with well-executed lineouts allowed he clock to run down and an unconverted try by Jake Anderson ended the match with a 17-5 victory.
"It's good for the program to win this tournament", said Lombardo. "The PAC plays a high standard of rugby and it took all of as players and all our supporters to earn this one."
Coach Clark said he was "proud of our PAC rugby teams, who all put their best foot forward this weekend with 100 percent participation. The teams looked good and played well. The final eight were all good, with not much in it between any of us. Some of the knockout-round teams, like Oregon, were a revelation, very impressive in their form."
Clark added: "Even some of the consolation teams look very promising. Washington and Stanford both had passages of very good rugby and with coach likes Brian Schoener, Kevin Swiryn and Matt Sherman showing them the way forward, these teams will undoubtedly become increasingly competitive."

Slides (view online)Why is "Optimizing the graphics stack to improve performance on sleep & resume" an optional feature of WDDM1.2 drivers? I think this is important for the user experience and should be made mandatory. So there should be a bit pressure on graphic vendors to optimize their drivers (remember the bad nVIDIA drivers for Vista?)
1. Where can I get the documents listed on slide #26?
2. From logo perspective; I understand that DX10 is a logo requirement for Win7 and DX10 feature level 9_3 is minimum required for Win8 logo. Where can I find out what is the delta of features between DX10 and DX10 feature level 9_3?

It was convenient to the stadium.
Great place to park for Cards games. Easy access to I-55 and well lit lot. We will use it again.
Very convenient,reasonable price, friendly, and close to stadium. Perfect.
Easy safe walk to Busch Stadium. I will definitely use Park Whiz again!
Easy in and out no issues. close to my highway. will use again.
Close to the stadium. Didn't have the hassle of printing out a ticket. Pulled it up on my phone and that was it.
This is a large parking lot outside of the red and grey Midas Auto Service Experts Building, just a short walk to Busch Stadium!
This location is a business.
This surface level highly lighted parking lot is located on the southeast corner of Cerre St and South 4th St. outside of the Midas Auto Shop. Entrance is off of S 4th St. We have 6 outside security cameras with signs posted at entrance and on the lot. A parking attendant will be watching the cameras and patroling the lot while your at the game ----- up to one hour after the game ends.
After the game is over you don't have to sit in a garage for hours waiting to get out. All interstate ramps are just blocks away.

1 Eldritch Abomination stalking people for uncertain reasons.
1 Intrepid Investigator who is determined to find out the truth, at all costs.
And 1 Unknown Quantity who leaves Cryptic Clues that both Beguile and Frighten the Investigator.
The answer is, surprisingly, not a Slenderman Story but something a little bit older, and based on the West Virginian version of Bigfoot. I'ma go watch it now.

We had a very pleasant stay in that hotel. Staff was very helpful. If to start wining, then breakfast buffet should be better and beds were TOO comfortable (personal opinion). Supermarkets were close, that was good, didn't have to drive somewhere.

"Lovely country-style hotel - in Hendon"
Well appointed hotel with small, extremely comfortable rooms, on the Copthall side of Hendon. Interesting history, too - it was where the victorious English World Cup team stayed on the eve of the final in 1966. Well worth paying for the cooked breakfast - ours was delicious.Kontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus
"Well priced, comfortable stay"
We chose this hotel as it was closest to the venue of a family event and the hotel did not disappoint at all. The breakfast was good (coffee a bit debatable), room a sufficient size, clean bathroom. Couldn't fault it for this price bracket for two people.Kontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus
Poor service at the bar for food & drinks on arrival, even though the hotel was extremely quiet. We waited at least 10 mins to get served & then about another 20 mins to receive our food, then another 10 mins for condiments to arrive to accompany our lunch. Some areas of the hotel were not very clean. We arrived back in our hotel room at approximately […] 11:30 pm & the room was very cold, I had to wrap myself in a towel off the heated towel rail in order to get warm. Very disappointing, after seeing the beautiful facade pictures of the hotel on the Internet, to arrive to find a large plastic sheet covering the front of the hotel. Disappointing on several levels.

"Somewhat disappointed"
We stayed at this hotel 4 years ago and were very satisfied. However this time we were disappointed. The physical condition of the hotel has deteriorated and it sorely needs maintenance.

"Great choice for the northern suburbs"
My wife and I stayed at the Hendon Hall for 7 nights in August 2012. Let me preface this review by pointing out that the hotel is located in suburban Hendon and there is VERY little around here to see and do. The only reason we chose this hotel is that my wife's grandmother lives right next door it. The hotel was charming and despite our room being […] on the small side, it was very tastefully appointed and in top condition (which is all the more impressive considering how long the hotel has been around). The staff were very friendly and helpful. The quality of the food in the hotel's restaurant is wonderful and I definitely recommend having a meal there. My only complaint is that the housekeeping was fairly average, they did not replace used glasses, sheets, etc for the duration of our stay. Highly recommended for those visiting Hendon/Hampstead/Golder's Green... LisateaveKontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus
"A lovely hotel in North London"
This is a very nice hotel in an area of London that is not close to where the action is in London. However, it is within walking distance of a Northern Line tube station (the hotel will drive you there and pick you up) and it is about a 30 minute tube ride to the center of London. The hotel is really nice, especially if you get an Executive Room. It […] is also a bargain. Very clean and well appointed rooms. We stayed for 11 days and the breakfasts were first rate. Dinners and bar food were excellent, but expensive. LisateaveKontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus

"Very quiet location, friendly and helpful staff"
The hotel appears to be undergoing renovation externally as the front of the building is wrapped in a facsimile of the hotel as it normally is. It's very cleverly done and I wasn't aware of any construction work (or noise) during my work week stay. My bedroom was excellent and the location itself very quiet indeed. On a couple of nights I had some […] noisy neighbours who had their TV so loud that the speaker was vibrating. The noise permeated but was easily cancelled out by me switching on the room ac. The breakfast offered is worth a rating all on its own. It was excellent. I never avail myself of the full English breakfast, preferring healthy fruit and muesli instead. Hendon Hall has all the bases covered though and the coffee is excellent too. The evening meals I had were served in the bar area (I didn't use the restaurant so cannot comment on their meals). The meals weren't all that great really. I found them oily in the main. Palatable but not exciting. It is quite a walk from the nearest tube station (Hendon Central on the Northern Line) but the hotel operates a complimentary shuttle service in the morning (it doesn't run in the evening though so you may have a 20 minute walk - take a small map and walk through the residential area - it's really rather nice). Overall, I'd certainly stay there again but I'd probably have my evening meals elsewhere. LisateaveKontrollitud Expedia kliendiarvustus

Very pleasant staff. On arrival we were moved to a double room as we had been booked to a twin room. The move was perfect for us. The first room smelt of cigarette smoke so we were pleased.

I can't compliment the staff of the hotel enough for making us feel welcome and answering the questions that we had. The room was a little small but was very comfortable, had an iron, a decent hairdryer, excellent refreshments and good tv. The breakfast choices were superb and the garden was an added bonus as somewhere to sit in and to enjoy the (amazingly […] for this time of year!) sun.

"A beautiful hotel at a very reasonable price"
We stayed at the Hendon Hall Hotel in Ashley Lane, North London for 5 days this November. The hotel is beautiful, clean and very well kept; in serene surroundings and only a short drive away from Central London. The hotel provides free parking as well as free wifi everywhere in the hotel, including in the room. The complimentary breakfast is hot and […] the spread makes it possible for you to choose anything you can think of in an English Breakfast. Best of all you can have it in your room! Laura at the reception (and everyone else too) was very helpful and friendly. Our flight landed very early and they managed to give us one of our rooms on arrival, well before the 3 pm check-in.

"Hendon Hall Hotel"
Really nice hotel, nicely furnished quiet rooms. Interesting furniture around the building. Great free parking. Good service at reception. The only area to let the stay down was breakfast service. I was seated by the greeter, but there was no explanation of how breakfast works at Hendon Hall. Cold food is on the buffet, but hot food is cooked to order. […] Other guests who arrived after me were served before me. I asked for coffee as soon as I sat down, but it never arrived. As I stood up to leave, I was asked if I had ordered coffee, I said that they had taken too long and that I had to leave, the response was Oh.

Well, the title says it all. This could be a beautiful hotel, but it's in need of an update. The hotel should also be proactive in supplying directions, as its location does not quite coordinate with the map displayed - my cab driver had an awful time finding it, the result being a 80 pound taxi from Heathrow (which should have cost half that). The […] staff was friendly but not overly motivated - they seemed to be coasting along rather than making the effort to ensure a satisfying stay. LisateaveKontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus

Strictly AnnTuesday, 18th June at 7pm at Daunt Books Marylebone High Street
From her early family life in Singapore and her convent school days to her student ambitions at Birmingham and Oxford, and her long-serving years as an MP, this is the life story of one of our most outspoken and celebrated politicians. Offering unique insight into her time as a Minister in three Departments and the Shadow Cabinet in the 1990s, Ann also explains the roots of her conversion to Catholicism in 1993 and her deeply held views against abortion and gay marriage.
Her memoirs reveal a singular personality who lives life to the full. From feisty and witty appearances on Have I Got News For You to her unforgettable and star-turning performances on Strictly Come Dancing, Ann has earned her place in the public's affections and has been heralded as a 'national living treasure' by the Guardian.Tickets are £8. They may be purchased from our Marylebone shop in person, or with credit/debit card by telephone (020 7224 2295) or here online.

Tender is the NightSunday 23rd June at 11.30am at our shop on South End Road
Join other book-lovers for a walk on Hampstead Heath to discuss F. Scott Fitzgerald's haunting last novel Tender is the Night.
Dick and Nicole Diver are a glamorous, alluring couple, who shine against the heady backdrop of the 1920s French Riviera. The veneer of a perfect marriage begins to crack, however, when young actress Rosemary Hoyt falls under their spell, and the dark disquieting truths at its foundation come to light. Inspired in part by Fitzgerald's own troubled marriage, Tender is the Night is a heartbreaking masterpiece.
'He has an acute eye and ear for the nuances of character... an exquisitely crafted piece of fiction.'
'A powerful fable for our times.'

Red NileMonday, 24th of June at 7pm in Daunt Books Marylebone High Street
So much begins on the banks of the Nile: all religion, all life, all stories, the script we write in, the language we speak, the gods, the legends and the names of stars. This mighty river that flows through a quarter of all Africa has been history's greatest and most sustained creator.
In this dazzling, idiosyncratic journey from ancient times to the Arab Spring, Robert Twigger weaves a Nile narrative like no other. Along the way we meet crocodiles and caliphs, nineteenth-century adventurers and twentieth-century novelists, biblical prophets and classical lovers, dam-builders and crusaders. As he navigates a meandering course through the history of the world's greatest river, he plucks the most intriguing, colourful and dramatic stories - truly a Nile red in tooth and claw.Tickets are £8.

With a detective's forensic patience and the narrative ear of a novelist, Tindall unpicks the histories of these houses, seething with the loves and hopes and disappointments of the people to whom, like Tindall herself, they were beloved familiar places"
- Jane Schilling, Telegraph
People, real people - not boring, stupid giggling, bullying girls or lying teachers - had lived here once." So thought 13-year-old Gillian Tindall about her Surrey boarding school. For her delightful book Three Houses, Many Lives, Tindall's curiosity inspired her to delve into the past of this house, uncovering the fascinating stories of its former residents. She also turns her meticulous eye to a Cotswold vicarage and a London Jacobean house, discovering stories embedded in these houses that represent the changing face of England over four centuries. In examining the effect on the lives of the houses inhabitants, Tindall achieves a subtle, delicate exploration of national phenomena, such as the building of the railways and the growth of cities.Gillian Tindall is a prize-winning novelist and historian, who lives in Kentish Town. Her previous books include The Fields Beneath, which is a history of Kentish Town, The House by the Thames, Celestine: Voices from a French Village, and Footprints in Paris.

Eleanor Farjeon
Read by Anne Harvey and Piers PlowrightThursday 11th July at 7pm at Keats House
Anne Harvey and Piers Plowright will read from and discuss the remarkable work of Hampstead writer Eleanor Farjeon.
Eleanor Farjeon (1881-1965) had her first book of poetry published in 1908. She went on to write over 80 books of poetry, drama, novels, essays and short stories, winning three major awards. In a long literary life she numbered among her friends, D.H. Lawrence, Robert Frost, Walter de la Mare and most notably, Edward Thomas. She was one his closest collaborators at the time he wrote his greatest poems and his death in the First World War spurred her to some of her finest poetry in the poignant sonnets touching on her grief. Her wonderfully diverse work connects with childhood, literature, Hampstead locations, as well as her love of the countryside.
Anne Harvey - poet, broadcaster and Fellow of the Society of Speech and Drama - is the executor of the Farjeon Estate. She has edited over 30 anthologies of poetry and drama for adults and children, including the latest edition of Edward Thomas: The Last Four Years. In Like Sorrow or a Tune, Anne introduces a new selection of Farjeon's writing for both adults and children, reflecting its originality, wit and depth of feeling.
Piers Plowright, born in 1937, is an award-winning playwright and documentarian who experienced Farjeon's wisdom, love of stories and sense of fun first-hand during his childhood. Piers was made a Fellow of The Royal Society of Literature in 1998.
Talks take place at Keats House, Keats Grove, NW3

I don't care if the guy lives or doesn't. So the "melancholy" is not about that.
Here in Germany, there is the principle of 'innocent till proven', and this means, proven in a court of justice.
Now don't get me wrong again and say I said Bin Laden was innocent. This is exactly not what I'm saying. But ideally, he should have been judged in front of a court and not shot before. It is sad that this court case did not happen.
The news about how this event happened was only released later in the news, thus Driver Nate writing what he had read, and at this stage I had read it, too (as I wrote).
What I was basically saying, and this is because my first impression was that Bin Laden was killed because he was meant to be killed in the first place, and because of Guantanamo is that these people should get a chance to get a court case, like a state of justice would grant them, of course. What I was saying is that the U.S. should stick to such higher principles.
Hope it's easier to understand now.

Poll: Is the Penn State Punishment Fair?
PSU hit with four-year postseason ban and $60 million penalty.
The NCAA levied numerous sanctions against Pennsylvania State University Monday morning, including a ban that will keep its football team from competing in any postseason play for the next four seasons and a $60 million fine.
The NCAA will also strip the program of 112 wins – all but one of which came under Joe Paterno – dating back to 1998. The vacated victories mean that Paterno will no longer hold the title of winningest coach in college football history.
Penn State will also be required to reduce its number of football scholarships from 25 to 15 over the next four seasons. In addition, players currently attending the university will keep their scholarships, regardless of whether or not they continue to play football, NCAA resident Mark Emmert said at a press conference.
Current team members and new recruits will be able to transfer to another university and forego any standard period of ineligibility.
Finally, Emmert said the NCAA would continue to investigate the action of university personnel regarding the handling of Jerry Sandusky, and could issue individual sanctions upon the completion of all criminal cases.

Unfortunately they needed to give a loud and clear messages to all colleges - this was very fair - now that we have learned the punishment, can we please now work on what happened to the DA years ago - He was the one that originally was informed of Sandusky's activites and said there wasn't enough evidence - I believe he was paid off to dissapear or was taken care of. He knew what was coming and I am sure aware of a coverup -
Jay Imbody
9:24 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
How dare the president of the NCAA say he wants to make sure football is about education and keeping kids safe. For the past 30 years, NCAA sports has been about money and getting boosters good seats at the games - period. If you can't wrap yourself around that, you are just as plastic as he is.
Lesley Misko
11:16 am on Monday, July 23, 2012
There is inconsistency among what is going on legally, what the NCAA decided, and what the mob screams after being fed by a media frenzy that is producing headlines that are not accurate. In America -- the land where people are supposedly innocent until proven guilty -- this is the most amazing case of mob behavior at its worst, almost an example of a primitive lust for blood (metaphorically)... and by the way, I don't give a rip about football at Penn State or anywhere else.
8:06 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Agree with you, Lesley--except we do care about Penn State football.
11:33 am on Monday, July 23, 2012

I believe the sancations against the football team are way out of line, those players had absolutely nothing to do with what sandusky did, the ncaa has too much power to make these recommendtions against a football team who did not violate any children. those records should continue to stand.
Bob Heller
12:59 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
The current players don't have anything to do with it..yet the only thing that got taken away from them is their ability to play in the post-season....They still have their scholarships...they are still getting a FREE quality education...so big deal if they have to miss a few post-season games...The NCAA did what it needed to do...
12:12 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
Yes, punishment against the university should be harsh but the students should NOT be penalized. Taking away scholarships and not letting the players be involved in any post season games is unfair to them....The real people involved in this mess should be the ones punished for their actions (or lack there of).
12:01 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
And punishment should be handed out only after a full investigation is completed. That has not happened yet. How is the NCAA going to look if Curley, Schultz and Spanier are found not-guilty of a coverup?
Bob Heller
1:02 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
How is not being allowed to play in the post-season unfair? and no current player is getting their scholarship taken away....Scholarship reduction will effect future recruiting classes and besides, there's always need-based financial aid available
james frank
1:17 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
The innocent will suffer. What wrong was done by players, PSU's student body and local businesses that DEPEND on a vital football program? Totally unrelated to the Sandusky crimes.
Punish the individual perpetrators, not the university.
PSU got no unfair advantage, as in all other sanctions in NCAA history. The NCAA sanctimonious stance is not unlike the Inquisitions of the middle ages.
Shame on the NCAA.

My issue is everyone is forgetting about the victims. It's all about the punishment Penn State receives. Football at Penn State will survive. The shame is all anyone cares about is the program. Penn State is so much more than a football team. Anyone who depends Paterno etc should have to face those victims and see how they feel about it. All these supporters would feel differently if it had been their child, friend, family or neighbor molested in the locker room by Sandusky.
james frank
10:51 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
No one has forgotten Sandusky's victims. But the NCAA just victimized many many more.
12:04 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
The only ones forgetting abou the true victims in this is the media. Sandusky is in jail for the rest of his life. For the media, there's nothing more to report in regards to the victims. It's time for headliner news and that's why the mob went after the university.
Did the administration fail in its duties? Absolutely. Was there a willing conspiracy to cover it up? Not obvious to me after reading the Freeh report.

The school should be punished and not the current students. The board of trustees and Gov. Corbett didn't do anything back in 1998. What punishment are they getting.
4:50 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
Everyone is worried about the poor players and the university. The university covered up the acts of an animal all to protect the football program. They should have gotten the death penalty. The football players that are worth anything will transfer and the others should as well. The whole program should be suspended.

5:30 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
They punished the program and not the players. This is a statment above everything else -- that the cult of personality that runs these athletic programs and runs these schools will no longer be tolerated. One head coach...one athletic director...one school president should not have the power to cover-up a crime. This was not a knee-jerk reaction. This was the NCAA's way of saying that the events that were uncovered in the independent investigation and follow-up report will not be tolerated. I commend them for swift justice.
6:47 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
I agree with the person who asked the question about the original DA, who got the case and disappeared? Also I am concerned about the fact that people have demonized a man that is dead and aren't focusing on the man who commited these crimes. Jerry Sandusky abused these children , unfortunately Joe Paterno isn't here to answer all of these questions and why aren't we just as outraged with the police who did nothing about these allegations? I too like a previous poster have no interst in college football but I do have a interest in justice and what I feel is right and somhow what has been done here just doesn't seem right.
8:30 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
Please, please, please do not vacate the Penn State wins. The thousands of students who performed on the field, who cheered in the stands, and the loyal alumni who sustain the program are not guilty of any wrong doing. They are the faithful heroes of Penn State and deserve no tarnish from the tragedy wrought by the leadership of the institution. Please reinstate the wins and acknowledge the effort of each individual who contributed to those wins.
Marc L.
8:38 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
The wins still happened. The players got all of those touchdowns and passing yards and interceptions and tackles and sacks. But the wins do not count towards school records because their coach at the time, Paterno, turned a blind eye towards the victims of a crime in order to keep the football program above the fray. That sort of dishonesty deserves the punishment received. Paterno isn't deserving of being the "winningest" coach in NCAA history.
8:34 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
I feel so badly for the students. They did not cause this mess and should not be penalized for actions taken by the big boys at Penn State. I just hope the big boys get what's coming to them - they collectively killed JoePa....
Marc L.
8:40 pm on Monday, July 23, 2012
Please explain to me how the students are being penalized. And by students I'm assuming you mean the ones who don't suit up for the games but the ones who are going to the COLLEGE for an EDUCATION.
Also, the only thing that killed JoePa is cancer. Not the "big boys" and not a broken heart.
jerry sody
5:40 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
the NCAA overstepped its ability to act and I for one do not believe for one moment that Joe Paterno had any knowledge or partook of any action to interfere with any investigations......he did not withhold information and was straightforward with everybody ..........he remains a great man!!!!!
kevin smith
9:28 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
When are people going to realize that as great as he pretended to be, he did not do enough? By the way, read the emails ... he did have knowledge ... ask yourself this, when Sandusky was up for the University of Virginia head coaching job, after being hailed as a defensive genius and leading Penn State to a National Championship, why didn't he get that job ... because "someone" whispered into the ear of UVA that there might be a problem.
Deborah Snyder
5:41 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
If all the MEN who were aware of the allegatioins against Sandusky handled it from the beginning by going to child welfare and the off campus police there would have been a scandle but it would have cleared up quickly. These MEN choose to keep it quiet. If they had done the right thing from the beginning we wouldn't be talking about this now and PSU would be rolling along as usual.
5:48 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Why are the players being punished? That doesn't seem fair.
Marc L.
6:53 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
How exactly are the players being punished? The current players still have games to play. The former players still have all of their statistics and their college degrees (those who finished up school -- which at Penn State is a tremendously high percentage). Please explain how the players -- past or present -- are being punished.
7:41 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
The players were not responsible for the actions (or lack of) the PSU coaches and admin. It would seem they are paying a price. But I was just thinking, I wonder if any of them knew what was going on. Anyway, it's done. My daughter is a 2001 grad, but she wasn't there for the mega football program, JUST a really great education.
Marc L.
8:31 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Again...what price are the players paying? How exactly are they being punished?
8:14 am on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Everyone is looking at this like the players are being punished. I do not see it that way, the players have an opportunity to transfer or play at Penn State. Penn State still has a football program, and they will be back in bowl games soon. This is an opportunity for Penn State to start a new football program and build that program's reputation. Things will go back to a state of normal for PSU, unlike the victims who will never be able to go back and fix what happened to them. So PSU take your reprecussions with dignity and stop crying about losing wins and bowl games, it just lends to the point that the culture of penn state is solely focused on football (and protecting it) instead of the good of the community. Had Joe or any of the others come forward in 1998 they would have been hero's and saved so many children from the unimaginable, yet they didn't...all for what? To protect a football program...a football program.
Sherry Jacobs
12:10 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
No the players are being punished. Just making more victims. Just because of someone's assumptions.
Bob Heller
1:14 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
No Sherry I think you're wrong...Are the players there to play football first or get an education? If you think its football than you have your priorities mixed up...no player is losing their scholarship, thus they still have the opportunity to play AND get a FREE education
Marc L.
1:18 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
To the people who keep saying that the players are being punished please tell me HOW they are being punished. Please.
Bob Heller
1:27 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Spot on Marc...I'd like to hear that explanation as well.
Marc L.
7:42 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Bob: It's just frustrating that a lot of these people complaining about the sanctions seem to be wearing the very same blinders that Paterno and crew wore when the abuse was going on. The NCAA had to punish the football program for what was covered up, plain and simple. And in doing so they are sending a message to the rest of the teams who abide by NCAA regulations that this will not be tolerated -- and if it takes place that the punishment will be swift and it will be severe.
4:59 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
Some of these players have been planning to play football at PSU way before this scandal came out. Some won't get to play because scholarships have been cut. Some will have to switch gears and find another program. (And there are others, no doubt, that will accept them) And just what is the incentive to play? No chance for a bowl game for incoming freshman. Smaller crowds to cheer them on. But the biggest reason is ...IT'S NOT THEIR FAULT!!! It is also not the fault of the former players who are now part of a legacy of losses from 1998 till present. They played those games with no knowledge of dirty deeds. That's it. I'm done. We agree to disagree.
Marc L.
7:38 pm on Tuesday, July 24, 2012
1) No existing players will lose scholarships. The loss of scholarships begins with the next recruiting crop. In fact, any player on the team who is currently playing under a scholarship has that scholarship guaranteed -- even if they DONT play football -- during their time at PSU thanks to the terms of the sanctions.
2) For the students who decide that they would like to switch gears and find another program, they can change schools and play immediately. Under normal circumstances they would have had to red-shirt (a.k.a. "sit out") a year. The terms of the sanctions make it easier for a PSU player to transfer to another school without suffering any loss in playing time.
3) No chance of playing in a Bowl Game is not a punishment, and if they're not happy with that predicament they have the option to transfer to another college.
4) Smaller crowds to cheer them on is NOT the fault of the NCAA. That's the fault of PSU's potentially fickle fanbase. If you're concerned about smaller crowds then by all means please buy a ticket and go to the game. Apparently there are going to be plenty of seats according to all of the naysayers.
5) The players who played the games that were vacated do not have a "legacy of losses. That's not what vacated wins means. They don't count for the coaching record but all player stats, including wins, still exist.
5) Saying "It's not their fault" is not a reason nor does it explain how they are being punished.
9:02 am on Wednesday, July 25, 2012
@cher, They are lucky the NCAA didn't give them the death penalty, which is what they actually deserved. SMU did far less than this disgusting ring of men who not only control your mind apparently but the minds of many other brainwased alum and students, and they received the death penalty. These future players you speak of can go to another school if they want to go to a bowl game, you're whole argument sounds like someone with clearly mixed priorities. The football program that exisited at penn state was a corrupt organization (in one of the worst ways imaginable) and once exposed needs to be punished. In the grand scheme of things you are complaining about smaller crowds and legacies, really?. First off, it is only the coaching winsthat were vacated, not the players stats and wins. Secondly, to even think about incentive to play, should be a non issue. College is about getting an education being able to play football is a bonus. Something terrible went down at this university and it was the fault of a football program and it's leaders who thought they were above the law and had absolutley no moral standard. You can not let a organization continue to operate and honor something so tainted. The NCAA did psu a favor by allowing them to continue to play football and build a new program.

I think what the NCAA imposed now added many, many children to the victims list. It's typical mob mentality to try and destroy the whole school and the many other good things they accomplish, such as Thon and other fundraisers that have helped the community. Shouldn't everyone remember who the real criminal is and concentrate on that and only the people that are absolutely responsible for the cover-up. There are many Penn State haters that would love to see the college crash. What they should now do is reach out to as many alumni and students as well and come up with ideas to counteract the bowl games, such as come up with their own tradition that draws out the fans and gains momentum. They can also try and build up their other teams, such as basketball and stand up for all the other good things about the school, such as their academics and other things accomplished. Remember, the kids didn't commit any crimes! And neither did the present coaches!

The NCAA is not trying to destroy the school...The current players on the team keep their scholarships and will continue to get a free education at Penn State...even if they never pick up a football again...As someone who has worked in college athletics for nearly 30 years (not at PSU or any of their rival schools) - A good education is MORE important than a bowl game in my book...Penn State will weather the storm...just wait and see.

Why hasn't the NCAA done anything about Syracuse? Maybe it is because ESPN was involved. The coach committing the atrocities was a current coach, not a retired coach. on a team with 5 coaches not on a team with 30 coaches.
5:29 pm on Thursday, July 26, 2012
Tis is a very serious offense and needs to be harshly dealt with. If it is not we could here it come up elsewhere...The coverup is the worst part.

this whole thing was about children being hurt. so some feel that the solution is to hurt more children with sanctions including our worthless president. i have 2 children at this wonderful school who are feeling depressed. its just not right.

The online community of knife collectors
I finally put my Barlows in a Box. I don't really like the box for these knives, I think I will swap out those smaller Coca-Cola knives and find something else for the Barlows, but it's better than throwing them in a cardboard box.
On the left side are various makers including Case, Boker, Maherr & Grosh and others.
On the right are my antique Russells. All are 1800s. I have a few more that I need to dig up that are 1920-30 Russells.
I also have a few Daddy/Grand-Daddy Barlows.
I haven't had one of these for months and the first one was a lot of fun.
Therre are two here that I don't think are actually Barlows although that is what they were sold as.
Can you spot them? Remember...I'm talking about what my sick brain says are not Barlows. I admit that I could be wrong.
First person to pick both with no wrong answers will get 2 Barlows not shown here (both are Prov. Cut. Co., nothing to write home about).
First person to get one right will get one of those Prov. Cut. Co's.
If someone gets one right & then someone gets the 2nd right you split the Prov. Cut. Co's.
Fair? Understandable rules??
Deadline: 5 pm Pacific Time on Wednesday, June 6th...yes 2012!!
Good luck!
Below is the box. On the left are the various makers. On the right are the Russells.
Below are the various makers (ignore the few on the right)
Below are the Russells (ignore those on the left).

3 of the Russells are two blades, spear & pen (like the one below with the sheepfoot Boker) while the other two are one blade with just a spear. Send me a mssg with an address when you can, & I will send your prize JJ.
Is the Russell a spear blade?
The hand-sawn handle on that #5 knife (it's a Boker) certainly looks like a traditional old-school Barlow though.
Well, I had alot of fun playing Lee's games and I'm sure alot of others too. I think the real IKC hand of a job well done, needs to go to Lee, for having these little contest. He contributes his time and knives to let us have fun. So, thanks Lee, keep it up.
Just to clear a few things up on this contest I am adding final photos:
Below is the #5 knife that Robert correctly chose. We can see that the blade sits quite a bit higher than the Russell Barlow when closed and is shaped different when open.
Roberts correct answer came in at the last few minutes of the contest because he wanted to give others a chance since he won my first contest. And he has offered the prize (a newer Barlow same as JJ won) back into the prize pool so it will be part of the prize for our next contest.
As soon as I recover from this one!
And Robert deserves an iKC hand!!
that was a good one Lee! hmmmm wonder what he'll do next...................................
Well thanks Lee, I think JJ. will dis agree on the type blade but a quick check will prove [I think] that the blade rises much too high for a Sheep Foot blade. This has been alot of fun both times I have played. I thought the contest was over when I entered my guess. Oh well, I have a great idea for the next Contest. Check out you home page, I'll send you my idea.
Well Robert picked the right knife. 5th down from the top. For the right reason. with the blades closed you can tell the primary on that knife is different from a regular Barlow.
But I think JJ is right because it is (I think) a Sheepsfoot blade. Which often confuses me with those "budding" kind of pruners.
So JJ and Robert can send me an address and I will ship your rewards!!
I will have to come up with another one. This is fun. I think I have another good one, I just have to come up with some prizes.
You may be right JJ, but I think it's a Prunning blade, that would make it incorrect, from what I have read about Barlows. We will find out soon I hope.

Habitat: Their nests are in a hole inside trees or in a birdhouse. They have cup-shaped nests made of feathers, hair and soft plants.
Recommended Feeder: Lyric Chickadee Feeder
Feeder Tips: Chickadees are sure-footed and need no perches. The Lyric Chickadee feeder allows the bird to cling to the rough cedar wood while maneuvering seed from the holes. Hang your Chickadee feeder in or near a tree, and always use a squirrel guard, because sunflower seeds and nuts are squirrels' favorites, too.
