Movie Review
"Life" is a surprisingly sentimental comedy about two men wrongly sentenced to life at hard labor in a Mississippi state prison. It is nothing like what you would expect from a high profile vehicle starring Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence, and it is certainly not what the advertising has made it out to be. There are many humorous passages, and even a number of laugh-out-loud moments. However, the ... ...

Hundreds of people have packed into two churches to pay their respects to a lay preacher and organist who was murdered on his way to a Christmas service.
The funeral service for Alan Greaves, who was 68, took place at St Saviour's Church in High Green, Sheffield, just a few hundred metres from where he was attacked.
The service was also shown via video link in the packed St Mary's Roman Catholic Church, which is just down the road.
The cortege arrived outside St Saviour's where Mr Greaves's widow, Maureen, was joined by family members to watch the wicker coffin carried into church.
There were no flowers in the black hearse, although the lead mourner carried four red roses ahead of the pallbearers.
Members of the public who could not get into church gathered in freezing temperatures outside to listen on speakers.
Mr Greaves suffered head injuries on Greengate Lane, close to his home at around 11.10pm on December 24.
He died in hospital three days later.
Two men have appeared in court charged with Mr Greaves' murder.

Man Ain't Supposed To Cry
LP (Item 57826) Roulette, 1957 — Condition: Used
A vocal jazz classic! Joe Williams had come to great fame as the singer with the Basie band during the 50s, but this beautiful album is unlike his usual work with the group – and shows a sophisticated vocal side of Joe that's really amazing. The album was arranged by Jimmy Mundy, with lush backings that bring out a sensitive side to Joe's rich voice – heartbreaking on most tracks, as you'd probably guess by the album's title. The mix of ballads features a few familiar numbers from the late 50s, plus some real charmers from earlier years that Joe reinterprets on his own level. Titles include "What's New?", "A Man Ain't Supposed To Cry", "Say It Isn't So", "Can't We Talk It Over?", "I'm Through With Love", and "I'll Never Smile Again". A wonderful treasure from the years when Roulette was cutting some of the most sophisticated vocal sessions in America! (Multi-color bar label pressing with deep groove. Cover has a bit of pen, a bit of tape, and some masking tape on the bottom. Vinyl has a few short clicks.) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

A Message from the Executive Director
Winter/Spring 2013
Whatever worthiness a museum may ultimately have derives from what it does, not from what it is.
Stephen Weil
This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of the Hofstra University Museum (HUM), whose doors opened to the public in 1963. Starting with a core collection of fine art donated by trustees, alumni and friends during the decades prior to its opening, the Museum, in its early years, quickly established itself as an important cultural resource for the University. Today, the Hofstra University Museum is the only American Alliance of Museums (AAM) accredited university museum in the region, a significant mark of excellence for all of its endeavors, annually reaching out to more than 22,500 visitors that include students and faculty at Hofstra, as well as residents of our metropolitan area.
The role of the HUM has evolved through its years, with the Museum now serving as an impetus for thought and discussion through its choice of exhibition content and its collections. It is a place where visitors, from the youngest to the most senior, can challenge their assumptions and transform their thinking as they engage with authentic cultural artifacts and original works of art from the world's diverse cultures and through centuries of time. Students, faculty and scholars develop independent research focused on aspects of the collections that date from 5,000 BCE to the contemporary; and the exchange of ideas encourages growth and enhancement of 21st century skills and thinking.
At a 2007 meeting of the International Council of Museums in Vienna, the art historian Carol Scott presented a paper on Advocating the Value of Museums, suggesting that "[Museums]…provide inspiration, through access to the communal archive of ideas… '[Museums] are revealed to be a rich and layered experience offering different ways to interact and intersect with objects and the stories that lie buried within them.' " In the daily life of the Hofstra University Museum, Scott's point of view is a guiding principle as the objects that define the collections are utilized to teach children about the rich cultural heritage of our world, the stories embedded in each object, and the strong connective links that art has to core classroom curricula. Adults explore the resources of the collections while engaging in peer-to-peer conversations that encourage the sharing of their own life experiences with varied world cultures. Hofstra University students and faculty in a wide range of disciplines (e.g., Communications, Dance, Education, History, Journalism, Psychology, etc.), utilize HUM exhibitions and collection works as a vehicle for meaningful conversation and scholarly discourse that is directly related to course content.
As the Hofstra University Museum looks ahead to the next fifty years, its newly minted mission statement (December 2012), "Integral to the mission of Hofstra University, the Hofstra University Museum advances knowledge and understanding through experiences with authentic works of art from the world's diverse cultures…" will serve to guide the growth of current offerings and the creation of new community outreach initiatives designed to further enhance the impact of the HUM as a place that expands upon each individual's life story as it "…derives its value from what it does, not from what it is."
Beth E. Levinthal, Executive Director

I had the great pleasure of READING not SEEING this play. On the page, the play is compelling from beginning to end. The set up is typical--good cop/bad cops interrogating a seemingly innocent man. But, as secrets are revealed and memories/stories of the protagonist writer are played out before our eyes, the play becomes darker and profoundly imaginative. I say this with no hyperbole: It is one of the best plays I've ever read, and I've read a bunch. My heart was in my throat for most of it. It's not for the easily disturbed. My only hope is that the Broadway cast does it justice.

Pillowman is a very cleverly performed and staged production. You admire it, but leave the theater empty. None of the characters or plot elements were at all likable no matter how witty and sharp the dialogue, and how sparkling the stage tricks.
Bottom line-you don't care what happens to any of these awful people trapped in this morbid plot. Even the policeman's final noble act is predictable and ineffectual.

The acting is superb in the unique drama that has many very funny moments. If your thin skinned skip this one and go see Mamma Mia. But for those looking for something different and entertaining this is a treat.

Not absurd enough, not funny enough, not symbolic enough. Gruesome without any point. Acting excellent however.

Having been a fan of Mcdonagh in the past, this play falls short. Too bad, I was hoping for something more.

I understand now what the first audience of Sweeney Todd must've felt like at intermission. Ironically, Mr. Sondheim was in the audience last night, and at intermission I found out he had similar thoughts. The Pillowman is for theatre what Adaptation was for film...by criticizing myriad theatrical cliché, and opening the audience up through laughter, McDonagh terrorizes the audience, and then, while their imaginations are vulnerable to his fancy, toys around till he's damned good and ready to stop. The performances by Crudup, Ivanek, and Goldblum are particularly good, the set/lighting design is impeccable and Michael Stuhlbarg's performance as Crudup's mentally challenged brother is unforgettable. Go see this play.

I am puzzled by the reviews already posted that are 3 stars or less. This is the most ORIGINAL play on Broadway in many moons. I can't think of the last time B'way had two quality new plays (Doubt) in one season.
So often I attend the theater and feel I only had an hors d'oeuvre, not a full meal. This is a full meal, a banquet. It would be wrong to give away the plot beyond what has been advertised - takes place in a police state, involves violence, a suspect and 2 detectives.
However, it is fair to say that all the modern Irish playwrights constantly use their storytelling ability in their work (often as one person shows). Here, Martin McDonagh uses that ability in brilliant service to a muscular, full-length play with 8 characters.
Also, this is a play that young people (especially young men) will enjoy, and there aren't a lot of those.
I saw it on the last day before opening. If it doesn't get a rave in tomorrow's paper, the critic should be fired.

this is an early mcdonough play - written before 'beauty queen' - and it shows - the undigested ideas and clumsy narrative twists overwhelm any sense of character or psychological truth. the more recent 'lieutenant' is a way superior piece. that said, there's some witty dialogue, and a couple of good horror stories - and john crowley's wonderful staging (helped by some pin-sharp acting) almost manages to paper over the play's gaping holes.
April 12th, 20051:09 pm
This comment is based only on the review, so I'm on dangerous ground.
It's heartening to hear from Broadway's chief drama critic that a new mouth-watering peak has finally been reached. How could one resist not wanting to rush to New York to see it?

The Pillowman has the amazing ability to make each member of the audience uncomfortable. For those it reaches, it can also challenge, illuminate, and inspire.
Superficially, many claim it is the violencenarrated and demonstrated; presented as fiction and depicted as factthat is upsetting. Not so! This extraordinary work of art is so disturbing because it forces into our individual consciousness unresolved (perhaps irresolvable) issues that each of us work hard to ignore--some so effectively that they miss the point of the play!
McDonagh uses sometimes horrific images to force those who can to see past them to examine fundamental issues: loyalty, love, sacrifice, responsibility, justice and injustice, purpose and meaning, the value of pain, the importance of ones life work, and more. The best evidence of this plays substance and importance is that long after seeing it, one can still be captivated by it and engaged in reflection about the themes is presents and the basic questions it so captivatingly places before us all.
Jeff Goldblum and Zeljko Ivanek give fine performances. Billy Crudup and Michael Stuhlbarg connect so powerfully with their roles that even author McDonagh, and director Crowley must be in awe.
Every serious theatergoer MUST see The Pillowmanperhaps more than once. It will lead you to examine and doubt your own assumptions as powerfully and compellingly as does the other truly superb Broadway play of the current season.

I was lucky enough to see PILLOWMAN in London at The National Theatre last year.
I have seldom seen a more provocative and thrilling play and the production was beyond reproach.
So I went to the New York production with great intrepidation simply because many plays suffer ennui crossing the pond. I also felt that perhaps the original English cast would be hard to live up to.
Well, I could not have been more mistaken.
The Booth theatre has a huge hit on its hands and the New York cast is brilliant.
I cannot reccommend any show on Broadway more highly than this one.
Any theatre-goer who misses it, will suffer the regrets of a lifetime.

Martin McDonaghs sensational new play "The Pillowman" is set in an Eastern European Abu Ghraib where Billy Crudup as a primitive writer of stories is being tortured to confess to a series of child murders that resemble those in his work. The lead detective is Jeff Goldblum, who at 6'4" makes an intimidating presence. We wonder if he will bash Billy the way he did the darling Kieran Culkin in "Igby Goes Down." But the more violent cop is played by Zeljko Ivanek in a frightening display of anger. Billy Crudup is marvelous. (I must run out to rent "Stage Beauty" right away.) He is on stage all the time. He is tightly wound; small with delicate features -- all eyes and cheekbones, one of which is highlighted in the second act with blood drawn in a beating we mercifully do not witness. He is open and imaginative, fearful of offending his captors but assertive of his rights and especially those of his retarded brother played touchingly by Michael Stuhlbarg. I am easily amused, but I did not find funny much of the material that made fellow audience members laugh nervously. I am repelled by official brutality, but it is a topic of such currency that I could not avert my eyes. The play is about storytelling, but I wish our hero's stories were not about murder. His only story not involving the death of children was about a green pig who liked being different but was forced to be painted pink.

... Is tell a story. This play is a magnificently told story that unravels at an edge-of-your-seat pace. It is engrossing and grabs you from the opening scene. It's not as intense as some reviewers might have you believe (I was waiting to see brutal child killings on stage) and I didn't see anyone leave after intermission (it was a packed house). Not everyone is going to enjoy the subject matter, but fortunately, this play has a perfect balance of humor to offset the darkness it breeds. Billy Crudup is amazing (making me believe he is one of our finest American actors) and Jeff Goldblum was completely overlooked for a Tony nomination (his performance made it seem as though the part was written for him). Zeljko Ivanek and Michael Stuhlbarg are also quite compelling in their roles. This is one of those plays with a lot of surprises, things that make you gasp, lines that make you laugh out loud and cringe simultaneously, and a story with twists and turns that keep you guessing. The fact is, for almost 2 hours and 45 minutes, you are completely enveloped in the stories being told and are dying to hear more. This is not a suitable play for anyone under 14, but at the same time, the play involves nothing more terrifying than what some might tell around a campfire. The design elements are pitch perfect, as is the direction. This is indeed one of the most risk-taking plays I've seen on Broadway in a while. It succeeds on all levels.

I knew that "The Pillowman" was something extraordinary when I first read it in December 04. Set in a world reminiscent of Kafka, this darkly funny and provocative play grabs hold of you right at the beginning and wont let go. During my first read-through, I literally couldnt put it down. I had no choice: I had to see it through to the end.
This production is magnificent. The direction, acting, and design elements all come together in a seamless union that brings McDonaghs nightmarish world to life. The design is simple: an almost entirely bare stage with dimly beautiful lighting. John Crowleys direction is memorable without being distracting or appearing to be blocked, and more importantly, he knows how to work with actors. He not only gets his actors to where they need to be during this emotionally charged play, but also crafts an artful arc for them to follow.
Jeff Goldblum is put to good use as sardonic good cop Tupolski, and Zeljko Ivaneks bad cop Ariel is made a tormented and fascinating character. But the real scene-steal comes in the second half of Act 1. As brothers held captive in a totalitarian dictatorship, Billy Crudups victimized Katurian and Michael Stuhlbargs damaged yet dangerous Michal are electric together.
This is not a simple play, and it will haunt you. It will make you laugh, cry, wince, think, and wonder, and it wont give you a rest until youve at least let your mind wander over it. But is it worth it?
Oh yes.

I can admire the skill of the production and the writing and still not much care for this. By setting it in a totalitarian country, McDonough signals that this is to be a work about the interaction between art and politics. But this issue isn't seriously engaged. Instead, it's about McDonough's ability to stoke out of us alternating waves of laughter and disgust. And yes, he can do this pretty effectively, but it feels as if this is not done in the service of anything but just the pleasure he derives from the manipulation. If you're going to toy with subjects like the torture of children, you have a responsibility to do so for a higher purpose than to make an audience jointly go, "Ooooh, gross." I didn't feel that the playwright was in the service of his material, but that the material was there to attest to the skills of the playwright. The acting and production are on a very high level, but I can't imagine a circumstance under which I would choose to see this play again.

This is an obscene play. The humor in this "black" comedy is predicated on the playwright's belief that long, detailed descriptions of the torture and murder of small children are funny.
This is the kind of play where, during the intermission, people avert their gazes and hope that none of their friends are in the audience. I felt as if I had been inadvertently caught in a porno show.
Martin McDonagh, the playwright, evidently believes that he is so accomplished that he can convince an audience that they are enjoying a show in which the characters range from merely deranged to murderously psychopathic. And, judging by the critical acclaim and the relatively full houses, I guess he is right.
The cast does a fine job, and the production is slick and professional, but do any of these people have children of their own? And what's wrong with McDonagh? Can he not think of any better way to shock an audience than making light of killing, torture, and mental retardation?
I did not like this play.

The Pillowman contains four brilliant performances in a tale that truly has unexpected twists. Too often, todays theater is predictable. Not here. Even the staging has surprises. When the curtain went up, I wondered why this production had won the Tony for staging and lighting. That mystery was solved not long into the play.
After seeing this play, someone asked if it would be appropriate for a 16-year old girl to attend. Hard question. I dont think it would give her nightmares, and would be fine if she is detached enough to easily understand the difference between stage and reality. By the end of the play, Katurian is not an evil man, but in reality a victim, too. This was by far the best story I have seen on stage in 20 years.

You think the producer of this play could be a little more creative (and fork up some expenses) than just having the same set of a cell with 4 walls for the entire play. The set was about as original as the set of the Vagina Monologues minus the 3 vaginas. At least that play was provocative and thought invoking. If constant profanity is what people consider risque or dark, then the reviwers need to climb out of their little shell. And if the best laughs come from a character not because of what he says but how he speaks because he is retarded, then people need to get out in the real world, I work with a bunch of lawyers everyday who act more naturally retarded. I could have used a pillow because I was so bored I fell asleep before intermission and then walked out. The theater is way too small, the old woman at the door was plain nasty and you need a 30 minute intermission to get into the tiny bathroom. I actually feel like asking for my money back. There is no redeeming, provocative, interesting, edge of seat or any value in this show. An absolute ripoff for people who come to broadway to be entertained by either great production, costume and stages, or thought provoking and heart wrenching stories or love stories or laughter or anything that you imagine a broadway show should be like. I will spare you all your money - the brother smothers and kills his little retarded brother with a pillow right before the intermission - thats when I walked out along with plenty others.

I've read the reviews and now, I got to see it front row. Wow!
This is a play with different tiers going on at multiple levels. The main story line, of course, is an interrogation of a writer by 2 cops perversely played by Jeff Goldblum and Zeljko Ivanek. Their own skeletons, especially that of the bad cop, semi-unravel during the second half. The object of interrogation has written stories on child murders with vivid and morbid imageries that tantalize us into wishing that they be spun into actual plays themselves (who would play "little Jesus"?). Billy Crudrup's torture in captivity is a primer on sadistic mental, emotional and physical cruelty. Michael Stuhlbarg's character as the retarded brother engenders emotional ambivalence.The direction is impeccable, providing the audience appropriately timed sardonic humor after moments of intensity. The set design is both minimalist and provocative. There is ample supply here of antipathy, grotesquenesss and lunacy.
But amid all these, redeeming themes of family, loyalty, integrity and dignity under pressure abound. Prepare to be challenged and captivated.

This review is really a light hearted rebuke of all those who didn't enjoy the Pillowman. Personally I thought that it was amazing- it had me on the edge of my seat and taught me many valuable lessons.
I am studying theatres studies at the moment and realise that in order to provoke some sort of proaction you must feel confronted and challenged deeply by the theatre. I put it to you that those who did not enjoy it were light weights who only wanted hearty entertainment that they could watch comfortably. However, if there is a real message to be conveyed, how can it be put across without evoking strong reactions? The theare is not there to serve as pure fun but to teach and ennoble its audiences. I believe that the Pillowman taught valuable lessons that penetrated me to the core- the nature of truth, for example, and the modern day angellic view of children are amongst these. I myself am only 17 and whilst I felt that the profanities a few of you speak of made me feel uncomfortable, they made the force of the play hit me much harder. I think that the many people who walked out were the ones who could not see the necessity of all of the elements involved. In all, if you are an old so and so who is totally complacent and arrogant then save yourself the embarrassment. Anyone who wants to have their views challenged, doesn't take things at face value and wants to learn more about life, this is a must see.

I apologize for not keeping proper tabs on the WAGS of the Olympics, as I've been too busy sulking over the fact that my Russian long jumper girlfriend Darya Klishina is not competing in London. But the above photo surfaced with some others the other day of that young lady sneaking out of a club with some U.S. swimmers and my natural instinct was BOING. Wait no, I mean, "Who is that ravishing woman?"
Well it didn't take long for the Internet to figure out – but we're the perverts, you see – that the woman in question is 21-year old model Megan Rossee, who is apparently Michael Phelps' main squeeze. It was hard to figure it out, too, because it's not like she spends all day Tweeting at Phelps and calling him cute nicknames like "Bear". Oh wait, she totally does that. Anywho, the two met at a night club in Las Vegas, which is where all true love begins, so we wish Phelps and Rossee nothing but the best of luck in all of their Subway avocado goop dreams.
After the jump, introduce yourself to Megan Rossee as she stands on the horizon of stardom.

Wild rabbits are popular game animals, especially in Europe. Varieties of rabbits are raised commercially for meat, skins, and wool, as well as for pet trade. They are used extensively (about 0.5 million/year) in medical research and for testing the safety of chemicals and consumer products.
The wild, domesticated rabbit has been highly successful in most places where it has been introduced, and it is considered an agricultural pest in many areas (especially where its natural predators have been eliminated). They eat cultivated crops and compete with domestic animals for forage. Millions of dollars are spent annually in countries such as Australia, New Zealand, Britain, and the United States in efforts to control, confine or exterminate them.
A number of extinctions have been reported, with many other species in steep decline, though introduced predators have undoubtedly also played a role.
On the other hand, rabbits may provide some benefits to some native species. Their burrowing loosens soil, which is helpful to certain plant and animal species, and abandoned burrows provide ready-made shelters for snakes, turtles, and other species. In addition, they are prey for a wide variety of carnivores, including canines, felines, and birds of prey.
In the 1950s, myxomatosis, a virus, began wiping out the rabbit population. When European rabbits were first exposed to the virus, the effect was devastating; in some areas the rabbit population was virtually wiped out. The rabbits that survived gradually became more resistant, but this immunity weakens over time in the absence of the virus.

JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Police in South Africa say they've arrested a 25-year-old man who swallowed 220 polished diamonds in an attempt to smuggle them out of the country.
Capt. Paul Ramaloko of the South African Police Service said investigators arrested the man Tuesday night as he waited in line at security at O.R. Tambo International Airport just outside of Johannesburg. Ramaloko said a scan of the man's body showed the diamonds, which later were recovered. He said the man had been on his way to Dubai.
Ramaloko said the diamonds are worth about $2.3 million. Authorities believe the man belongs to a smuggling ring, as another man was arrested in March attempting the same thing.
South Africa is one of the world's top diamond producers.

Two LeFlore County basketball players will get one last chance to compete in a high-school atmosphere setting tonight.
Talihina's Taggart Lockhart and Jordan EagleRoad will represent the Golden Tigers and the county in the 2011 Oklahoma Coaches Association Small School Boys Basketball Game at 7 p.m. tonight at the Oral Roberts University Mabee Center.
Lockhart, who signed earlier this year with the University of Arkansas-Little Rock, and EagleRoad, who will walk on with the University of Oklahoma's football team, helped lead the Golden Tigers to a 30-2 record and claim the Class 2A State Tournament championship on the fourth try, beating Preston 42-27 March 12 at Oklahoma City's State Fair Arena in the title game. Talihina made the state tournament in the three previous seasons, getting knocked out in the state quarterfinals in 2008, but making it to the state title game in 2009 and 2010 ŌĆö only to lose both times.
Earlier this week, two Spiro football players got good news from the OCA. Spiro quarterback Clayton Mitchem and tailback/linebacker Elliott Hawkins were named as East team replacements for Friday night's All-State Football Game, set for 8 p.m. at Broken Arrow High School's Tiger Memorial Stadium. Mitchem replaces Tulsa Union's Kale Pearson, while Hawkins is stepping in for Tulsa Washington's Isaac Bennett.
The ŌĆÖDogs were 11-2 last season, and shared the District 3A-8 title with Valliant ŌĆö but got the top seed in the Class 3A playoffs from the district thanks to Spiro's 52-28 win over Valliant in a battle of Bulldogs Oct. 21 at McClain Stadium. The Bulldogs got to the Class 3A state quarterfinals last season before losing to eventual state champion Heritage Hall 49-30 Nov. 26 in Oklahoma City.

Play Video: Deluxe Flannel Sheet Set
I wasn't sure about purchasing new sheets after reeding the reviews. But I had my previous sheets for 4 years and they were great. So I ordered 5 sets, and after 4 washings they were fine. Color was good, fit was good and the fabric was soft. I was pleased. Had 1 set frey a little but customer service replaced them within a week. Overall I am plaesed with the quality of these sheets.
These are great sheets at a great price. They were soft and comfortable and fit the table and head rest perfectly.
The elastic on the fitted sheets was WAAAY too tight! The 1st time I put it on my table and pulled it to the bottom, the elastic broke! Now it's a very loose sheet. I LOVE the color (sage) and the feel, so I gave it 3 stars, but I will have to sew elastic on it--thank goodness I know how to do that!
Sheets are perfect soft and fit well
I just ordered these sheets last month while they were on sale last month. The first thing I noticed after washing them on a quick cycle was that did not appear "WHITE" the appeared dingy like an old white T-shirt. Now, I began using them and one set by one set putting them on my treatment table there are black marks and little red "pen" like marks on all over them. Very disappointing. I also thought they would be a little thicker since the are the flannel ones but they are pretty thin to the touch.
I love the sheets, the feel the color and the size is okay. My only problem with them is that still after 5 washings they are still filling my dryer with so much lint that I wonder how long they will hold up. I can not wash the different colors together or I have to use a lint brush to remove all the lint left stuck to the sheets
I believe flannel is the best material for massage therapy--stays put and washes beautifully. My first choice.

I looked at this when i moved to Sweden this summer. As has already been pointed out, nobody does one way hire to Sweden. The furtherst SOME specialty companies will do is France, Germany, Spain. In the end I hired a van, the cheapest i could find and drove to sweden and back again to return the van. It cost me approx £1200 for everything (hire, diesel, ferrys, bridges, overnight stays, flight back, etc...) For my move it was the cheapest option I had, I combined it with a mini break with the friend I took with me to split the driving. This was from Reading to Göteborg.

I did a similar things, but sailed by ferry from Hull to Rotterdam, drove the rest of the way up into Sweden and back. But I hired a truck, as I have the licences and we were moving around 25-30m3 of stuff, wasn't cheap once you add in fuel/ferry etc.. but certainly cheaper than paying a removal company.
Which ever route you take, it's a fun/nice road trip and all part of the fun of moving somewhere else. Just give yourselves plenty of time for packing, unloading and driving, then you won't have to drive beyond reasonable hours to make your ferry booking etc. |

We ended up buying an old van and bringing it here with our furniture. It was cheaper than getting a removal company to do it. We sailed from Immingham to Gothengburg on the freight ship with DFDS.
Where are you sailing from and moving to? We have in the past arranged with various people to drive their hire vans back for them once they have unloaded their stuff due to them not having the time to do it themselves. Do you not have anyone that could do that for you if time is an issue? |

Thank you all for taking you time to help me out,
We are moving just before christmas, say around 17-21 of December or so. We live in London so I have been looking at ferries from Harwick to Esbjerg in Denmark, then Grena to Varberg, My final destination is a city called Varnamo but Gothenburg or Malmo would do. My mum who has a minibus offered to come over but the ferry prices has gone up and to pay for ferries way and return would now be too much an estimate of £1000 without the gasoline. How much did the secondhand van cost you? I don't have anyone that could drive a car hire back for me... Many thanks! |

The first ford transit van I bought only cost me £750 which was actually cheaper than hiring a van for 2 weeks! The price to hire a van was more than £880.
I brought it over with furniture and then did another trip a few months later before selling again in UK and getting £650 for it 10 months later. I bought another van for £1000 about 2 years ago which was much bigger and have done a few trips in it since. If you can pick up a cheapie van which you can bring one way, you might find it much cheaper to do. Just use it until the MOT etc runs out then look at getting rid of it as scrap afterwards. You can pick vans up with short MOT lifespan/ tax etc quite cheaply in UK if your only aim to to bring stuff one way. You will not have to think about getting back asap to save on hire charges. |

I would bother with the ferries once you dock at Denmark just drive it. Check out the price of the ferries compared to the two bridges, it may have changed. It's 3 hours ish from Malmo to Varnamo, so you don't gain much, by the time you have waited at the harbour, boarded, you could have been 1/2 way to Varnamo! Uk auctions are good places to pick up vans with only 1 -2 months tax and mot left on them. Minimum insurance just so you don't get a fine and off you go. You will pay more on the bridges, the bigger you are though, so try and work out just what you need. Ask on here if you have spare space, as folk might be willing to add something and pay towards fuel. |

I spent months costing up different options and calculated that the single cheapest way to do it with van hire was the dover-calais crossing and drive the rest. the crossing is cheap and the fuel price for the rest of the journey was far cheaper than longer distance ferries. It was a fun yet tiring road trip. we made it door to door, Reading - Gothenburg in a touch under 24 hours including a meal in calais and a 1 hour nap in germany somewhere.

That was part of the reason I did the hull to rotterdam ferry, left a 1300km drive at the other end, each way, but continental fuel is cheaper than UK. So don't fill up in the UK. At the time, it was cheaper in every country, even Denmark, but that may have changed. |

An alternative not so far mentioned, and one I used when moving back to the UK, and then when I returned to Sweden 7 years later, was to hire a container. Packing into boxes in advance meant that the loading/unloading took only a short time, and when the container was delivered to my address here in Sweden, it was left on a stand for me (and my young daughter) to unload. UK Customs supervised the unloading there, and were puzzled by one box of 'gallows'. It was the Swedes who had listed galger - clothes hangers - as gallows on the shipping documents. Back in Sweden, there was no supervision at all, and the only problem was of plants that had frozen on the crossing. Other than that, as a method of moving I found it pretty reasonable. Unfortunately, as this was back in 1974 I cannot remember what it cost, but I would not have done it had it been expensive.
There are removal companies in the UK who undertake trips to Sweden, and I have seen where you can work with them on combined loads, since they usually manage to arrange return loads, thus reducing the cost to you. Now, with the Internet, it should be pretty easy to make such arrangements. |

Havelock, NC Outdoor Activities
Recommended Outdoor Activities by Groupon Customers
Cleaved into a dense forest of long-needle pines, Beau Rivage Golf & Resort's course takes golfers careening across 18 holes of immaculate fairways as they gently undulate into picturesque elevation changes. Towering tree lines, tight doglegs, and intervening water hazards haunt golfers throughout the round, forcing clubbers into multiple blind shots and at least one shot from a tree canopy.
Suites stretching to 900 square feet, replete with a separate common area, kitchenette, and in-room wet bar, overlook the verdant greens. Private patios and balconies proffer views of the lush course, and the hotel's 19th Hole bar and lounge serves libations and heaping helpings of trivia and karaoke. The resort ensures days start off right, dishing out hot breakfast at the Verandah Bar & Grill at 7 a.m. and encouraging warm-ups on the 10,000-square-foot putting green and elevated driving range.
Seaward Action Charters offers a sport-fishing opportunity for brave boaters to reel in the fish of their daydreams. Gird your nautical forearms and cruise around the ocean on a four-hour fishing trip that ventures no further than 5 miles from the shore. As USCG-licensed captain Mark Gorges and fellow captains pilot a trustworthy 30-foot Grady-White, guided by GPS and radar, guests plant their feet firmly on the deck and harvest piscine fare from the ocean. Whether awaiting the strike of a spanish mackerel, a flounder, or simply playing catch-the-Spam-can with a bluefish from the bow, there will be plenty of fun for every rod-wielding bait-chucker. In addition to high-quality fishing tackle, the boat boasts modern amenities such as an electric toilet and a sink.
In a city known for its Hollywood ties, it's no surprise that many of Wilmington's residents moonlight as actors. Such is the case with Glide Dynamics & Cape Fear Segway Tours' guides, who tap into their flair for theatrical performances and excellent autograph penmanship, as well as their intimate knowledge of Wilmington's famous filming sites. The TV Series tour leads small groups of no more than six riders past the streets made famous by Dawson's Creek and One Tree Hill. Glide Dynamics & Cape Fear Segway Tours also offers advanced tours for seasoned segway riders and waterfront tours that glide past museums and historic landmarks.
Wilmington Water Tours owners decided to fulfill a lifelong dream, bought a boat, and took to the waters. The owners' passion for boating and local history soon garnered attention, and with the help of some friends, they founded Wilmington Water Tours to show off local history and sights.
Today, they own the Wilmington, a wake-canceling catamaran with a fully enclosed, heated cabin capable of seating up to 49 people. Groups board the vessel to explore the waters of Cape Fear. They cruise the coastline, watching the silhouettes of buildings transform into molten-colored spires in the sunset. They can also explore the history, wildlife, and mysterious channels of the Cape Fear River. Sometimes they just absorb the sounds of the state, inviting a musician to play on their Acoustic Spotlight tour as they drift down a river or pull loop-de-loops in the harbor.

St. Louis Windows Phone meetup on December 1st
An upcoming Windows Phone meetup is on the horizon, which will take place in St. Louis. According to Rob who organises the events, this will be the last one for the foreseeable future year. But a few tricks are up his sleeve to drive interest to the set location. The plan is to give away a Lumia 900 and Lumia 710 to attendees, which will surely be superb stocking fillers for the upcoming festive holiday.
The meetup will be held at Triumph Grill (triumphgrill.com - Bing Maps), where attendees will have to inform an employee they're with the St. Louis Windows Phone meetup. Drinks and food are not included and are to be purchased by individuals. The full address of the establishment is Triumph Grill, 3419 Olive St., Saint Louis, MO 63103 (314-446-1801).
So when is it scheduled to be held? December 1st, 12PM to 4PM - so not long to decide whether or not you will be able to attend. The meetup has run numerous times in the past and has seen strong interest from other members of the community. The most recent event was only back in September.

An early morning at the track
Posted on: October 12, 2010 | Comments(28) | IMS History, Indy 500 |
I think the most magical time to be at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is during sunrise. It's a time for reflection. A time for peace. The light allows you to view this stadium in a totally different way. This experience transcends racing and reveals a place of historical importance with victorious and heartbreaking stories to tell. It's what I value most in the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. You never know what you'll see.
This morning was definitely planned. But it's hard to plan for something like this. Around 7 A.M.this morning, IMS and IndyCar staff rolled out 33 winning Indianapolis 500 race cars.
