Rated 4.2 out of 5 by 764 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Carolyn Excellence in all areas From the moment we checked in, to the moment we checked out, the hotel and its staff far exceeded our expectations. Not only was the staff polite (as they should be), but they seemed geuinely nice and personable. The facility is gorgeous and clean, the breakfast we had at the hotel's resturant Clink was delicious, delivered graciously, generously portioned, and very reasonably priced. I look forward to many returns at the Liberty Hotel. May 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by stujooo Home Away FromHome When traveling in Boston, there is only one place i will stay and that is at The Liberty. everyone there makes you feel welcome, at home and very comfrotable. More hotels should learn from this staff May 6, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Dimarel61 Great Hotel Strategic location and great food. May 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Karen59 Historic setting I stayed at the Liberty Hotel for a conference and knew nothing about the hotel before I arrived. I love old buildings and history so I enjoyed the hotel very much. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was spa-like. I would love to revisit the hotel for a pleasure trip. May 5, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Brownfmly2 Very upscale and clean, great experience Had a great week at the hotel, attended the fashion show which was very nice. They did lose my dry cleaning, however they immediately made it right. Desk Manager, Kate S. was awesome and very nice. Kudos and would definately stay again. May 5, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Vino Great location and exceptional service Staff very pleasant from the time of arrival to our departure. May 4, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ScottieSTZ Liberty - truely unique The Liberty is trendy, popular and iconic. Those desirable traits will keep a hotel busy for the short run – as everybody will want to try out the hot, new, talked about and exciting. How the Liberty moves to the must stay list – is a simple strategy. Best service, at any price. Make the Liberty your next hotel stop in Boston. You won't be disappointed. May 3, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Sebastan close to Mass General not reocommendable , my experiance : Allthough made more than aweek in advance you lost my reservation,I if I would not have had my cnformation I would have paid dearly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by boodles liberty excellent service from patrick and other staff April 30, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gsquad Jail House "Rocks" Loved the look & feel of the Hotel...beautiful & tastefully done...the combination of old & new is wonderful & the atmosphere lively but not crazy. Except for the "ole" jail cell bars, cat walk etc. you would never know it had been a jail/prison...convicts never had it so good. The staff were professional & helpful. Three of us stayed 5 days in a deluxe room with double beds...COMFORTABLE & QUIET. Although I would have loved to have at least 2 chairs with a small table in the room. There really wasn't an area to place "things" or to have more than one person sit at a time...there was only one DESK chair to sit in after each day of travel or for getting ready in the AM; talking etc.. We solved the problem by staying out late enjoying the town, showering & going to sleep. In the AM as each of us awoke, we cleaned up & waited in the lobby for the others while sipping complimentary coffee & reading the variety of newspapers then sitting down for a wonderful breakfast in the Clink. The night life in the hotel was great; they have things happening different nights of the week such as; Jazz, art displays, fashion night etc. If you drink; there is a bar or the "cat walk", Like to eat? There is The Clink & restaurant Scampo. Liberty truly is more than a place to stay it is an Enjoyable Experience. April 29, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by lulu Beautiful Lobby Very cool that this hotel used to be a jail. Complimentry glass of champgne at check in, beautiful lobby and downstairs restaurant was awesome. April 29, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Tucker07 Hotel needs a lot of work. Bathroom door did not close properly and hotel did not fix it. There was no turn down service. Many of the electrical outlets did not work. Furnishings were sparse for a luxury collection. Cheap tile floors, plastic shower basin. Not enough attendants at front door. Poor quality construction and finishes throughout. April 29, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by keeper green program needs fixing I fell for your green room program.Unfortunately my room was never cleaned afterward including no new towels.You card indicated put it on the door knob.i did so for one day but took it off for the next two.No one ever came to clean even after I went down to the reception desk and complained.They said they would do it .Never done.Called that same evening all i got was an apology and no action.Wont fall for this program again,very poor followup by your staff. April 27, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by RMM007 Plagued with problems Stayed one night and here's what I encountered: - Television that worked poorly (screen kept blinking) - Wake-up call wasn't delivered - Toilet didn't work and got backed up - Outlet near the bed didn't work for a medical device that needed to be plugged in - When I checked out, I told the staff that the stay wasn't great and the front desk staff didn't ask why - When I asked for a manager to register my complaints, he was not receptive - $45 for parking What a screwed up place!!!!! April 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kimberly Historic luxury hotel in great location My first stay at this historic hotel: From check in with Brent who was friendly, informative and helpful to the comfortable, spacious room with a lovely view of Boston, wine and jazz in the lobby and dinner in the "jail" downstairs, it was great! I look forward to returning soon! April 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tstan Unique hotel Incredible design. I love the common areas. April 26, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Vagabond Nice Hotel but needs some attention I have always liked the Liberty for its unique style and interesting food. The front door guys are just great, as is the housekeeping staff. Not so impressed with the front desk, which seemedd more interested in other things than our check in. In the rooms, they are very comfortable but I had a hard time finding an outlet that worked to charge my stuff. Also, I like the shampoo etc. dispenser idea but the pump on mine didn't work and I couldn't get the thing out of the wall mount to take off the top. So I think they need to pay more attention to detail. April 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Aaron Fantastic Excellent in every aspect. Great localization, very well decorated, clean, etc. Most importantly, the hotel has character. Staff was extremely helpful and professional. April 23, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by cferg53 expensive without amenities nice hotel, but nothing special, and thus not worth the expense. unimpressive bar, despite all the beautiful young people. "fitness facility" is a jokeStayed a week, and the weekend guests seemed to have all come in from the local trailer park, made racket in the hall all night. would not recommend to others. April 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Erhaner Highly recomended The atmosphere was great. April 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Verified Reviewer All EXCELLENT except Car Valet The Valet service was horrible. They were rude, unaccommodating, and inattentive - possibly even incompetent. The male attendants were focused on flirting with the night club patrons and the woman seemed overwhelmed / lost in space. Other than that this stay was awesome, the front desk staff was superb, the food was over the top and the view of the Charles and the city – unbelievable. I can't wait to go back. April 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Peter08 Beautiful Hotel and great views of Boston Towers room was very nice. The view was great!. Scabo restaurant was over rated. Food was OK. Service was very good. Service at the second floor bar was fair. April 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Boston This hotel is in a great location, but... I really enjoyed staying this hotel. While I was checking in, I let them know that I'm a SPG gold member, and the receptionist upgraded my roon. I liked the atmosphere of hotel overall and also like the interior of the guest room. However, I was very surprised, the water stopper didn't work so the there was no water drainage from the sink. A guy came to fix the problem, and he left saying all problems were resolved, but it broke again. Another guy came to fix it, and it seemed better than the first time, but the rate of water drainage was so so slow. We thought the problem is not only the stopper, but also the plumbing. We could call another service to fix it, but we just gave up. Other than the water issue, we liked the stay overall. April 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Richard Excellent Hotel, Great Location The LIberty (Boston) is a comfortable hotel conveniently located near Beacon Hill at the Charles Street T stop - just a short walk to downtown Boston. Ask for a room with a view of the Charles. I was disappointed that there isn't a pool given the other amenities. Outstanding food within the hotel and along Charles and Cambridge streets. April 21, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dwbfamily Boston's Finest Hotel The hotel is in a great location to see the city. The service and staff are very welcoming. Top notch restaurants and room service. A one-of-kind experience in a unique property. My family (kids 9 & 11) spent 4 days at at The Liberty and everyone loved it. April 20, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by SweetPea84 great location and Scampo The liberty is in a great location. Close to the Charles river, the T and Charles St. Rooms are nice. If you want the view side, pretty at night, be prepared for some noise. If you must have quiet, stay on the back side. And, of course, we always eat at Scampo and have always had great food. We'll be back. April 18, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by wandcdad Great experience My wife and I didn't want to stay at a traditional hotel during our trip and we're very pleased with our experience with The Liberty. The staff was very friendly, the hotel was very nice and clean and the food in the Clink was delicious. April 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by WisconsinMike My Favorit Hotel in Boston The location is excellent, staff is amazing in many ways - pleasantly greeted, all requests cheerfully fulfilled. The room was pristine, and even on the day we checked out the room was tidied up, and fresh towels were provided. I'm pretty picky, and I can't think of one thing that could have been done better. April 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nuno Excellent Hote Corteus staff, comfortable rooms and leissure areas.And for me , very conveniently located close to the Mass. General, which is the reason for our frequent visits to Boston.. April 15, 2013

The MiBag from Exspect is a stylish and roomy laptop bag.
In fact, it's two. The MiBag comprises what Exspect calls a 'lifestyle bag' which has a thin laptop 'sleeve or bag handily slipped inside. If you don't need to carry your lappy about, you can stow it somewhere safely in its comfortable and well-padded inner bag, then use your outer MiBag as, well, a lifestyle bag.
It's certainly roomy. With the laptop sleeve removed, the MiBag has space enough to build a small town. Even with a 17in laptop ensconced in your MiBag (inner sleeve and all), there's a plethora of pockets and hidey-holes for everything you could possibly need to carry.
For instance, one useful pocket, aimed at your digital audio player, and sports a headphone-out slot. You simply slip your MP3 player in this pouch, and can then listen away without ever having to remove the player from the MiBag.
And yet the MiBag still looks stylish. It feels like a quality product.
See our Laptop Advisor website for expert reviews of today's best laptops, plus read our essential advice to make sure you choose the right specs
More importantly for the hard-pressed road warrior, even when stuffed with a laptop and the all paraphernalia you must carry with it, the MiBag is comfortable to carry. Or perhaps more accurately, the combination of several pockets, two bags and an adjustable strap means that if you can't find a way of comfortably carrying your laptop, you simply aren't trying hard enough.
And your laptop will be secure from bumps and scrapes. The MiBag boasts plenty of padding and a sturdy strap to stop your fragile PC getting damaged. And if it's in the inner bag of two, so much the better.
The MiBag has one other trick up its, ahem, sleeve that, depending on your viewpoint, is either a killer fashion function or a pointless gimmick.
NEXT PAGE: the MiBag's detachable fascia, and our expert verdict > >
The MiBag from Exspect is a stylish and roomy laptop bag.
Killer app or expensive gimmick?
Exspect says that its users have been crying out for individuality, and so the MiBag comes with a detachable fascia, and the ability to purchase separate coloured and designer fronts for your bag.
Perhaps we're getting old, but this seems like a means of (a) extracting money from punters who've already purchased a perfectly good bag and (b) drawing attention to the expensive gadget you're carrying around in a canvas hold all.
Having said that, the sleeves do look smart and they do reduce the obvious 'laptoppy' nature of the bag - we looked less like a busy exec and more like a paper boy - which may be no bad thing from a security point of view. (Your reviewer's car was recently broken into for the sake of a plain-looking laptop bag that contained only some sweaty gym kit, a pair of spectacles and a banana.)
Exspect sells MiBag fascias in a variety of colours, from £9.99 inc VAT each. And the company says that people will soon be able to design their own. Is this an idea that's going to catch on? We didn't think so, but having carried the MiBag around for days with nary a mention from our colleagues, no sooner had we slipped on a brown fascia, than we were garnering praise for our stylish bag. A quick straw poll suggests that even cynical IT journalists can be swayed by a shiny cover.
See our Laptop Advisor website for expert reviews of today's best laptops, plus read our essential advice to make sure you choose the right specs
MiBag: Specs
- 17in laptop bag
- detachable fascia
- shoulder strap
- 460x340x111mm
- 17in laptop bag
- detachable fascia
- shoulder strap
- 460x340x111mm
What do you look for in a laptop bag? In terms of safety, space and comfort the MiBag cannot be faulted. And it is good-looking. But if you want individual style, bear in mind that you'll have to shell out £9.99 on top of the initial £39 outlay. And £39 alone is nearer the middle than the bottom of the expense range for laptop carriers. A quality product that's priced accordingly.

After giving me the run around and not being able to find my account in there system initially, the company called me back and told me that the charge was for AOL. I notified them that I do not use nor have an account with AOL and did not authorize this transaction. The representative told me that they were going to refund my account by sending me a packet in the mail to fill out and send back and I would be reimbursed (which I am opting not to do because it may be fraudulent as well).
I found out about this JFYC company through the reports given from this website and I called AOL, which found none of my information in their system. I immediately realized that I had been a victim of fraud and called my bank and reported this fraudulent activity, as I did not authorize this transaction.
My advice to you is check your account often, be careful where you use your information, and never let something slide by without doing a thorough investigation because you too can become a victim of fraud by this or any other company.

Since I updated WPSC to version 0.9.9.4, the memory usage on my server went up by a good 50%. I haven't changed any settings, I just updated the plugin.
Is this normal? Is there a bug in 0.9.9.4?
Since I updated WPSC to version 0.9.9.4, the memory usage on my server went up by a good 50%. I haven't changed any settings, I just updated the plugin.
Is this normal? Is there a bug in 0.9.9.4?
When I updated, the cache actually got turned off. Might want to go recheck the settings, make sure you have it in mod_rewrite mode and such.
Cache is on. It's going insane! Here is a picture that hsows the server load. You can clearly tell when I updated to WPSC's latest version: http://twitpic.com/2sbqyv. Note that my site hasn't seen any increase in traffic, neither did I install and changed anything on the site.
And here are my settings:
The Preload Mode settings: http://twitpic.com/2sbtvi/full
The Cache Tester gives me an error: http://twitpic.com/2sbtnh/full
I set the debugger to send me emails but never received anything (also checked my spam folders and nothing there).
To me, there truly is a problem with WP Super Cache and this problem appeared with the last update. It's making my site go up and down and it's pretty embarrassing, and stressful.
Hopefully you guys can help me figure out what's going on.
Some suggestions:
1) Uncheck "Compress pages.." option, it will increase your server's CPU usage by doing gzip on every cache page.
2) Uncheck PreLoad mode.
3) STOP all debugging.
Above 3 points will definitely reduce CPU usage. It worked for me and CPU usage reduce to half after upgrade to 0.9.9.5.
Hope this works for you.
arpitshah - compression is only done once per page, not per pageload on cached pages so that shouldn't be much of an issue, but worth trying just in case.
sebastienpage - have you verified the mod_rewrite rules are still correct? The .4 release deleted the rules to clean things up going to PHP mode (or off) but I reverted that change in .5 again.
sebastienpage - try the development version on this page, just fixed a bug that might be the problem.
dooncha - thanks for the help. I had already updated the .htaccess file with the new rules.
I looked on the page you linked to and (I must be dumb), I cannot find any link to a development version. I am currently at .5 and this seems to be the latest I can get. Could you please let me know what I am missing?
arpitshah - I will give it a try. Thanks for your tips!
Oh, never mind. Grab .5 again and reinstall it as I forgot to tag it on Friday so it's basically the development version. That's a bad thing to do of course but I'll fix that later.
The link under "Current Version" returns a 404. The "Download version 0.9.9.5" link in the sidebar does work but I believe it is the version before the update you did earlier today. I'm sorry to be such a pain, but can you confirm? Thanks
Sebastien - just uninstall and install plugin from admin panel and that should be new one. I do see latest changes in current available version.
I tried to uninstall the plugin yesterday and it gave me an error message when I hit the "confirm" button. Strange. So I reactivated the plugin right away, turned it back on and saw options that I didn't have before. Very strange! For example the "Advanced" settings in the debug console were not there before.
Additionally, the cache tester stopped giving me a timestamp error.
At any rates. The site did better for the rest of the day and the memory usage didn't randomly go up as it used to do for the last few days.
However, I still get 2 HUGE memory usage spikes at around midnight and 8am. These have happened everyday since I updated WPSC and I have no idea why. (here is a picture of memory usage http://twitpic.com/2su5wa/full).
As usual, any insight would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Those spikes are probably when your site starts preloading? I've added a 5 second delay between each preloaded post to reduce the load. Unfortunately it'll take longer to preload though.
I updated to .6. Just got one of those HUGE spikes that actually take my blog down. I had to reboot the server to kill everything.
Should I just turn preloading off? I have over 3,000 posts on my blog.
Try the development version. It could be wp-cron duplicating the preloads.
Did you check your access logs? Did you verify it was preload traffic (You'll see your own IP address, and a WordPress client requesting lots of pages)

Widget logic has been causing 500 errors to appear for bots (Google Webmaster Tools specifically) for several weeks.
From server error log:
[Thu Jan 23 20:53:17 2014] [error] [client 220.127.116.11] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /nas/wp/www/cluster-2010/chlaw/wp-content/plugins/widget-logic/widget_logic.php(286) : eval()'d code on line 4
When I disabled the plugin that all went away and everything worked perfectly, so I know it's the plugin. But I'm not sure what exactly within the plugin is causing this.
It's been happening since shortly after upgrading to 3.8 (as far as I can tell in error logs and in GWT).
Any ideas?

Beaumont murder suspect arrested
A Beaumont woman wanted in the murder of her roommate was arrested today in Simi Valley, a city spokeswoman said.
Vanessa Kathleen Fierro, 30, was arrested in the 1900 block of Stowe Street by Beaumont police, backed up by Simi Valley officers, about 2:20 a.m. and booked in Banning on suspicion of murder, Beaumont spokeswoman Darci Mulvihill said.
Fierro, whose bail was set at $1 million, became a "person of interest" in the death of 44-year-old Elizabeth Asselin when the Riverside County Coroner's Office classified her death as a homicide.
Asselin's name was withheld at the request of the Beaumont Police Department during its investigation, but her name was released today by coroner's office, sheriff's Sgt. April Smith said.
Asselin was found dead Feb. 28 at her home in the 200 block of West Seventh Street. Police said someone they described as a friend asked them to check on Asselin because she had not been seen or heard of in several days.

When I saw the programme for the year this is the talk that I most looked forward to. While doing my City and Guilds I was completely captivated by Margaret Nicholson's work and recall standing mesmerised looking at exhibits of hers at a Knitting and Stitching show. I also spoke to Margaret and found out more about her methods and ideas. I tried some goldwork and soon realised how time consuming it was and how intricate her designs were.
Anthea is Margaret's Nicholson's daughter and is well qualified in embroidery and fashion. She has been principal lecturer at the London college of Fashion, Chairman of the EG, and is a Fellow of the Royal College of Arts and graduate of London University.
At our meeting Anthea brought dozens of examples of her mother's work and illustrated her talk with slides. Margaret was brought up in Yorkshire and went to the Sheffield College of Art before beginning work as a dress designer. In fact she made the first quilted dressing gowns and designed for Marks and Spencers.
This was interrupted by the war and afterwards she began to teach and followed a path in education; becoming an examiner in embroidery. She met her husband in Sheffield and moved to the Cotswolds, where Anthea was born.
In 1965 she joined the staff of the London College of Fashion and was instrumental in changing the methods of teaching. She met people such as Laura Ashley, Beryl Dean and Norman Hartnell and design became her forté. She was able to travel and research extensively and in 1991 her trip to Japan gave her a particular fascination for the female face.
However, it was only after she moved to Muswell Hill in 1992 that her work really blossomed. She lived with Anthea and was able to devote her days to stitching and gradually assembled a huge portfolio. Her basic method is Or Nué and she uses a gold basis couched in coloured silk threads. Many of her pieces are densely stitched but a few have spaces where coloured fabric may show through. The work is also varied with curves and diagonals.
Although most of her work is in the form of pictures she has made some unusual boxes, rolls and beaded necklaces.
Anthea gave us a few glimpses of her busy life including making her own wedding dress, which she had on display, travelling to countries such as Finland, New Zealand and Kenya to examine or judge and working in the fields of costume, fashion, miniatures, sewing techniques and lingerie.
What talent and how grateful we were to Anthea for sparing the time to talk to us.
Rachel Haver

Army Celebrates Women's Equality Day
What is it'
Women's Equality Day is celebrated annually on Aug. 26 to commemorate the passage of the 19th Amendment, the Women's Suffrage Amendment, to the U.S. Constitution. As a result, U.S. women were given full voting rights in 1920. Today, Women's Equality Day remembers those who ensured women's equity and honors their historic achievements.
Women continue to make great sacrifices on behalf of the nation dating back to the American Revolutionary War when Mary Ludwig Hays McCauley ("Molly Pitcher") replaced her husband who collapsed at his cannon. The many achievements of women today include the promotion of Ann E. Dunwoody, Army Materiel Command commander, to four-star general in November 2008.
What has the Army done'
More than 170,000 women currently volunteer in today's Army. More than 16,000 are currently deployed and proving their exceptional patriotism and bravery. The U.S. Army Women's Museum at Fort Lee, Va., serves as an educational institution, providing military history training and instruction to Soldiers, veterans and the civilian community. The museum is the custodian and repository of artifacts and archival material pertaining to the service of women across all branches and organizations of the U.S. Army from inception to the present day. The museum collects, preserves, manages, interprets and exhibits these unique artifacts as a means to provide training and educational outreach.
What continued efforts does the Army have planned for the future'
One only has to visit the Women's Military Memorial at the entrance to Arlington National Cemetery to bear witness to female Soldier's courageous actions. The Army has plans to hold a panel discussion there today while installations worldwide will continue to celebrate its female Soldiers and their many sacrifices with appropriate and pertinent activities and events.
Why is this important to the Army'
In last year's proclamation the president said to reflect on the sacrifices once made to allow women and girls the basic rights and choices we freely exercise today. These rights and privileges include serving side by side with their male Army counterparts.
The people who make up the Army are courageous and patriotic. They come from all walks of life and have a wide range of ability. Women are crucial in today's operations at home and abroad. Women take on these roles with the heart of a warrior and prove that the U.S. Army is the strength of the nation.

He consecrated the world, entrusting it to Mary's hands, offering the Blessed Virgin a golden rose.

Blessed Bartolo Longo
The Catholic Herald (UK) (www.catholicherald.co.uk/)

LONDON, England (UK Catholic Herald) - The tomb of Blessed Bartolo Longo in the Basilica of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary in Pompeii. About three million pilgrims visit the basilica each year.Pompeii has more to offer than dusty ruins filled with plaster casts of people, and one unfortunate puppy, frozen in time. It is also, coincidently, home to the only church in Christendom built by an ex-Satanist.
It's the same old story: boy from a religious family goes away to university, falls in with a bunch of New Age Satanists, becomes a satanic high priest, thinks better of his decision and ultimately reverts to the Church; it's the basic satanic-rags-to-saintly-riches story.
I didn't believe this story when I first learned about Blessed Bartolo Longo either. Having grown up the son of Italian immigrants, I was regaled with all of the lurid stories of El Barto's excesses, debauchery and general dissoluteness. I came to Pompeii not just for the ruins but also to see if the stories were true.
Bartolo Longo was born on February 10 1841 to a wealthy family in the small town of Latiano, near Brindisi in southern Italy. His parents, Dr Bartolomeo Longo and Antonina Luparelli, were devout Catholics who prayed the rosary together daily.
When Longo's mother died in 1851, he slowly drifted away from his Catholic faith. He was left to his own devices when he studied law at the University of Naples and became involved with a New Age pagan group which ultimately "ordained" him a satanist priest. He participated in séances, fortune-telling and the de rigueur orgies. Unsatisfied with merely practising his new pagan religion, he felt it important to publicly ridicule Christianity and did everything within his power to subvert Catholic influence. He even convinced many other Catholics to leave the Church and participate in occult rites.
But none of these activities brought him joy. In fact, his life was marked by extreme depression, paranoia, confusion and nervousness. He even began to show signs of demonic obsession, as opposed to demonic possession, which included being inflicted by diabolical visions and continually declining poor health. He ultimately experienced a mental breakdown.
In his despair, he heard the voice of his deceased father urging him to "Return to God! Return to God!" In fear and desperation, Longo turned to Professor Vincenzo Pepe, a friend from his home town, for guidance. Vincenzo convinced Longo to abandon Satan and introduced him to the Dominican priest, Fr Alberto Radente. Fr Radente heard his Confession and helped him to further reclaim his life.
One evening, as he walked near-chapel at Pompeii, Bartolo had a profound mystical experience. He wrote: "As I pondered over my condition, I experienced a deep sense of despair and almost committed suicide. Then I heard an echo in my ear of the voice of Friar Alberto repeating the words of the Blessed Virgin Mary: 'If you seek salvation, promulgate the rosary. This is Mary's own promise.' These words illumined my soul. I went on my knees. 'If it is true. I will not leave this valley until I have propagated your rosary.'"
To prove his new-found commitment to Christ and His Church Bartolo even attended a séance. In the midst of it, he stood and raised a medal of the Blessed Virgin Mother and cried out: "I renounce spiritism because it is nothing but a maze of error and falsehood."
On March 25 1871, as part of his self-imposed penance, Longo became a Third Order Dominican, taking the name Brother Rosario in honour of the rosary. He joined a charitable group in Pompeii and worked alongside Countess Mariana di Fusco, a wealthy local widow whom he married a year later on Pope Leo XIII's recommendation.
The happy couple decided to start a confraternity of the rosary. To serve as a spiritual focus for this group, Bartolo needed a painting of the Blessed Virgin. Sister Maria Concetta de Litala of the Monastery of the Rosary at Porta Medina offered him one that she got at a Neapolitan junk shop. She paid only 3.40 lire - a tiny, insignificant sum even at the time.
The painting portrayed Our Lady of the Rosary with St Dominic and St Catherine of Siena. Though it was of modest artistic accomplishment and in very poor condition, it served Bartolo's purpose. He described it in his journal: "Not only was it worm-eaten, but the face of the Madonna was that of a coarse, rough country-woman . a piece of canvas was missing just above her head . her mantle was cracked. Nothing need be said of the hideousness of the other figures. St Dominic looked like a street idiot. To Our Lady's left was a St Rose. This I had changed later into a St Catherine of Siena . I hesitated whether to refuse the gift or to accept . I took it."
In addition, the sorcerer turned born-again Catholic restored a ramshackle church in October 1873 and then sponsored a feast in honour of Our Lady of the rosary. He installed the repaired painting in this very church. Within hours of its installation miracles began to be reported and people came to the church in droves. Seeing the devotion of the pilgrims, the Bishop of Nola encouraged Bartolo to construct a larger church. He approached architect Giovanni Rispoli to build it, making the following appeal: "In this place selected for its prodigies, we wish to leave to present and future generations a monument to the Queen of Victories that will be less unworthy of her greatness but more worthy of our faith and love."
Work on the larger building began on May 8 1876 and was consecrated in May 1891 by Cardinal La Valetta who represented Pope Leo XIII. In 1906, he and his wife donated the Pompeii shrine to the Holy See but this didn't diminish his evangelistic zeal. Bartolo continued promoting the rosary until his death in1926, at the age of 75. To spread devotion to the rosary and to the Blessed Virgin Mary Bartolo would evangelise young people at parties and in local cafes, explaining the dangers of occultism. He would witness continually as to the glories of Christ, the munificence of His mother and the beauty of the Catholic Faith.
In 1939 the church was enlarged and re-consecrated as a basilica and officially renamed the Basilica of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary of Pompeii. It soon became a focus of pilgrimages for more than a century as most Catholics and non-Catholics alike found a church built by a reformed ex-Satanist to be devilishly irresistible.
Bartolo had died a saintly death and his Cause for canonisation was almost immediately called for. He was beatified by John Paul II on October 26 1980 who called him the "Apostle of the Rosary". More than 30,000 people attended the ceremony, and 50,000 pilgrims attended Pope Benedict's historic pastoral visit to the shrine on October 19 2008. He consecrated the world, entrusting it to Mary's hands, offering the Blessed Virgin a golden rose. In his homily, Benedict XVI likened Bartolo Longo to St Paul of Tarsus, who also initially persecuted the Church, described Bartolo as being "militantly anticlerical and engaging in spiritualist and superstitious practices".
He continued by saying: "Wherever God comes in this desert, flowers bloom. Even Blessed Bartolo Longo, with his personal conversion, bears witness to this spiritual power that transforms man from within and makes him capable of doing great things according to God's designs. This city which he re-founded, is thus a historical demonstration of how God transforms the world: filling man's heart with charity."
It's not easy to get lost in Pompeii but I somehow managed to do exactly that. I finally spied the famous bronze cross that adorns the Basilica's campanile. Apparently I am not the only person in the Sarno Valley to use it to orient myself. Technically speaking, every Christian uses the cross to orient himself so I wasn't in the least bit ashamed for having to do so.
The white surface of the domed basilica and its lateral chapels both strike and comfort the visitor. The façade is only a little more than a century old, having been re-pointed by the architect Rispoli in 1901. As I passed the long passageways adjacent to the basilica, I noted that this is where Bartolo and his wife would stand to hand out food to the poor who would gather daily.
Upon entering the church one is struck not by its silence but rather the pervasive hushed susurration of pilgrims who stand in awe at the church's beauty and God's presence. The walls are replete with frescos, marble ornaments, mosaics, paintings and the ever-present votives. These small silver or tin plaques in the shape of heads, hands, legs and eyes hang everywhere as tokens of thanksgiving for Mary's received protection and prayers.
The neoclassical Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary of Pompeii is decorated in the stereotypically exaggerated, over-the-top, pietistic art of the Italian peasantry that makes you smile and secretly wish you were Italian. It is, for good or bad, the art one associates with ancient churches and an even older faith. Stepping into this basilica reconnects one with 2,000 years of Christ's presence in the world and in our hearts.
I asked as to the whereabouts of Blessed Bartolo and soon found myself face to beatified face with the Apostle of the Rosary himself. Like every other pilgrim standing next to me, I realised that this former, self-professed enemy of the Church rests peacefully in a tomb in its bosom of the very church he had hoped to destroy. More delicious and blessed irony one can hardly imagine.
As I looked at the oversized painting of Our Lady of Pompeii hanging over the church's altar, I recalled St Maximilian Kolbe's poignant words: "If anyone does not wish to have Mary Immaculate for his Mother, he will not have Christ for his Brother."
One can't but be moved when seeing this painting of him and recall the pain, horror and revulsion that this satanist-turned-saint experienced when he was confronted by his own sins.
Every student knows what happened to the city of Pompeii on August 24 79 AD. But most people don't realise that the "new" Pompeii rose from the destroyed city's ashes 1,796 years later because of Our Lady of the Rosary and her devotee. In his The History of the Shrine of Pompeii Bartolo wrote:
"Next to a land of dead appeared, quite suddenly, a land of resurrection and life: next to a shattered amphitheatre soiled with blood, there is a living Temple of faith and love, a sacred Temple to the Virgin Mary; from a town buried in the filth of gentilism, arises a town full of life, drawing its origins from a new civilization brought by Christianity: the New Pompeii!. It is the new civilisation that openly appears beside the old; the new art next to the old; Christianity full of life in juxtaposition to long-surpassed paganism."
The newly constructed basilica attracted new families, a railway station, postal and telegraph services, the police, roads, water, electricity, hotels, restaurants and shops. About three million pilgrims come to the basilica every year, thus bringing to life the long-dead city of Pompeii.
Thus, the resurrection and salvation of Pompeii is now eternally linked with the resurrection and salvation of Blessed Bartolo Longo; the prodigal son returned home.
In God, all things are possible. Thankfully.

You will probably need to start customising your theme's CSS - possibly via a child theme. Try using Firefox with the Firebug add-on for this kind of CSS work.
Look at the margins here:
#site-description {
color: #7A7A7A;
font-size: 14px;
margin: 0 270px 3.65625em 0;
You'll need to add the above selector and margin style -- modified to your child theme stylesheet.
I have added the code in the style.css in my child theme but It did not work. Please suggest again.
Consider posting on a CSS-specific forum when querying CSS-specific issues.
There is no code like the above in your child theme stylesheet. Where did you add it?
If you have any caches, be sure to clear them.
Hi WPyogi. I am sorry to post the previous reply. However after changing the value 3.65625em into 1.65625em it worked. Finally thanking you for helping.
You have this:
#site-description { color: #FF8C00; }
so try changing that to this:
#site-description {
color: #FF8C00;
margin-bottom: 0;
EDIT -- we cross posted -- no problem and glad you got it working!
Thanks for help. However I see wide space in the left site both in the header and in main body section how can I do it into zero? Any help will be very appreciated.
You'll need to look at the margins for both of those sections of the page (likely here:
.left-sidebar #secondary and
#branding hgroup). As esmi suggested, the best way to work with CSS is by using Firebug -- it will show you the CSS that is affecting a specific area or element on a page. The firebug site has good documentation about how to use it. Learning basic CSS is not hard -- just takes some practice. This is also a very good CSS reference:
Yes I will follow firebug. Thanks for reference. However I could not solve extra space from left and right site both from left and right.

In an electricity experiment, a 1.30g plastic ball is suspended on a 55.0cm long string and given an electric charge. A charged rod brought near the ball exerts a horizontal electrical force on it, causing the ball to swing out to a 23.0 angle and remain there.
What is the magnitude of the electrical force?

Standing on the stage of the Pabst Theater Tuesday before a single note was played, Ed Droste from Brooklyn band Grizzly Bear could see how far its fan base had come. When the band first played the Pabst, he said, tickets were available for only the lower level. On Tuesday, both the lower level and the lower balcony were filled, and there were even some folks up at the tippy top.
That's not surprising. After coalescing its lovely sound - most distinguished by angelic voices - around a gorgeous single, 2009's "Two Weeks" from breakthrough album "Veckatimest," Grizzly Bear came roaring back with last year's splendid "Shields," its grandest accomplishment to date and one of 2012's finer albums. »Read Full Article

Like most journalists, I look to reports like the recently released Tow Center report on the changing nature of the field for guidance, for ways of thinking about what I do. But what I find is that what I do as a critic is increasingly marginalized or ignored by such studies.
In the thousands of words in the report from Tow, based at the Columbia School of Journalism and written by some of the finest minds in the field, there is a glaring void. There is no real consideration of cultural dialogue and criticism, perhaps the fastest shrinking segment of mainstream media today. Journalism worth doing is defined as investigative, watchdog journalism, the stories that somebody, somewhere doesn't want written. I would agree that this is the core of good journalism. »Read Full Blog Post(9)

With a band name like Grizzly Bear, you'd picture a bunch of dudes with long greasy hair and leather pants, blasting '80s heavy metal while girls in skimpy outfits frolic around on stage.

Bellew: Me vs. Cleverly Will Beat DeGale-Groves Easy
Tony Bellew insists that his eventual fight with WBO Nathan Cleverly will be bigger than DeGale-Groves.
The Scouser meets Ovill McKenzie for the British and Commonwealth light-heavyweight titles on July 16 at the Liverpool Echo Arena.
It's a mouth-watering rematch of their fight last year in which both boxers were on the floor twice.
But Bellew is already thinking of a clash with Cleverly.
The pair were due to meet at the O2 Arena last month, but Bellew couldn't make the weight after coming in as a last minute replacement for Juergen Braehmer.
"I can't look ahead of my fight against McKenzie," said unbeaten Bomber.
"But I want on record that I want Cleverly by the end of the year.
"Ever since that press conference where we nearly came to blows, everyone has been asking me when we are going to get it on.
"When we do fight, it will be the biggest domestic fight of the year, bar none.
"It will beat DeGale-Groves hands down.
"I don't like Cleverly, he doesn't like me, and I want to smash him to pieces."
De who????Comment by PrinceNaz88 on 06-02-2011
