Lovely place to stay and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere at Welshpool. Easy access to Wilson's Promontory and other lovely coastal areas. Thanks Kim!Erin2016-11-13T00:00:00Z
Wonderful stay. Kim supplied welcome muffin donuts. Delicious! Great recommendation for Foster Market on Sunday. Well worth a visit. Lots of local produce and goodies. Hope to come back again.Ying2017-04-15T00:00:00Z
Perfect little cabins and lovely gardens. Really chilled country area. Kim was amazing, so hospitable and welcoming. Pleasure to deal with.marky2016-12-03T00:00:00Z
We had a wonderful little holiday. The added extras were great, the place was lovely and quiet and had everything we could have wanted and more. Loved the choccies on the table on arrival, the spa and the robes in the bathroom. These little touches made our stay one to remember and Kim was lovely and offered some great suggestions on things to do in the area. We have already recommended this place to others :)Meg2017-01-20T00:00:00Z

David is a great host and bends over backwards to make your stay pleasant,Laurie2017-01-29T00:00:00Z
Beautiful place with rolling hills view. David provided us a lovely breakfast with fresh produce strawberries and honey from his back garden. Very satisfied with the service :)Novariska 2016-12-26T00:00:00Z
David is an absolute gentleman. Four of us stayed on our way to Wilson's Prom. We planned to arrive late after the local pub closed so he prepared a roast lamb dinner and fresh mango, frozen yogurt and Lindt dessert upon arrival so we wouldn't get caught out. David even checked all the ingredients used as we were traveling with someone with a lot of allergies. He is a master of all trades, working permaculture practices into his garden, lived close to the city for many years as a gem merchant/jeweler and builds garden bed boxes delivered around Victoria. Among other things. Most importantly, he's an all round nice guy. There was a slight miscommunication with booking dates where I accidentally led him to think I thought we were coming on Saturday when we booked for Sunday. He was very kind and offered to still put us up in his house if we came early on Saturday because the apartment was already taken that day. Luckily it was not necessary but so kind of him to offer to help us so our trip wouldn't be impacted. The apartment itself was very large with a lounge room, bedroom and separate bathroom. Beautifully decorated and surrounded by rolling hills, cows and paddocks. Thanks again David :)Rochelle2017-03-12T00:00:00Z

David's place is a simple but nice independent unit in the back of his house, with beautiful views and extremely quiet. David prepared a delicious lamb roast for dinner and also offered a honey produced at his property for breakfast in the morning. David is a great host, always looking after ourselves and doing his best to make us feel like home.Bruno2017-02-26T00:00:00Z

A couple of friends and myself went out to this lovely quiet home and had the most wonderful relaxing time. The house was perfect! Would definitely recommend.Nick2015-12-06T00:00:00Z
The house is in a very quiet street, you feel very secluded, it's a lovely drive to the beautiful Wilsons Prom. It's an excellent size and clean, you have to clean up after yourself and bring your own linen, which is fine. We didn't meet Kerry Jo and Ezra, but they were quick to respond and understanding when we had to leave early. Thank you for letting us stay.Kate2015-03-24T00:00:00Z

We had a lovely stay in this warm and well equipped house. Kerry was always prompt in her communication and the instructions were clear. Thank you.Kylie2015-05-12T00:00:00Z
We had a lovely stay at Victorias Secret. The house was very cosy and well-equipped. Port Welshpool is a very quiet and peaceful area and in an excellent location for visiting Wilsons Prom, only an hour away. Kerry, Jo and Ezra were very welcoming in their communications with us and made sure that we had everything that we needed. Definitely would recommend Victoria's Secret to others.

We had a great time at the house. Loads of firewood to keep warm, really comfortable and 2 minute walk to the beach. The house is perfect and everything we needed.

The house is generous and tidy. It has s generous garden the fact that dogs are allowed, also inside, was a huge bonus! Close to the water & beach. Quiet street and friendly town. Susannah is very responsive and accommodated all our wishes. We had a great long weekend!Brigitte2017-03-20T00:00:00Z

We rode our bicycles the length of the rail trail from Leongatha to Port Welshpool. Susannah's place was a perfect retreat at ride's end. We particularly enjoyed the quiet of the locale: we visited the local maritime museum, explored the mudflats and enjoyed excellent local fish. Susannah provides a folder -- and library -- of local information and tips. The house boasts a kayak, a Weber BBQ and is dog- (and bicycle) friendly.Warwick2017-01-17T00:00:00Z

Hi John, thanks for having us over at your beautiful place! We had so much fun over there and it was definitely very amazing to get such breathtaking views! Also, the kitchen is truly a dream!! Equipped with all you'll need to complete this incredible stay!John2017-05-18T00:00:00Z
One Tree Hill is a fantastic retreat, tucked away up the hills near the Toora wind farm. With view for miles and cosy amenities within the accommodation that may the stay both relaxing and unique. Highly recommend this location for anyone willing to escape the city and relax.Anthony2016-10-25T00:00:00Z
The perfect place for a relaxing long weekend away. We've never seen anywhere with views like One Tree Hill, and our dog loved the opportunity to romp in the green hills! The house was perfectly designed to take in every view (and to take the fierce Gippsland winds!) with excellent facilities and a comfy wood stove. John was a very generous host that accommodated our last minute change of plans. We were sad to leave but look forward to returning one day!Stephen2016-08-29T00:00:00Z
Had a fantastic long weekend at One Tree Hill. What can we say - the views from the property are simply stunning! The house is extremely comfortable and stylishly appointed; with floor to ceiling windows to maximise the views, and all mod cons. Wilsons Prom was an hour's drive away for day walks, whilst nearby Agnes Falls is just a few kilometres away. There were also several other great walks in the area; more than enough to keep us busy during our stay. John was an extremely accommodating host, easily contactable and even assisted our group with towels when we had forgotten to bring our own. Thoroughly recommend staying here, and look forward to our return.Andy & Meg2015-11-11T00:00:00Z
Our Hazel park stay was amazing. We couldn't get enough of the views and the whole country side atmosphere. I can't wait to book another stay at One Three Hill. We also met John and his very friendly dogs. Our pup Nelly loved playing with them.Pavlina2016-11-05T00:00:00Z

Staying at Blue Oar Cottage was a delight! I was at Port Welshpool with a few colleagues for work and we all thought the house was very comfortable, tidy, warm and with excellent facilities. There was plenty of firewood prepared for the woodheater, and beds & linen were comfortable and good quality. The location was ideal for us, just a short walking distance to the wharf, general store and pub. We got to meet Penny and Paul too, they are lovely hosts and very helpful with anything we might have needed. Would highly recommend their Blue Oar Cottage, and we will certainly stay there again!Mikala2016-10-23T00:00:00Z
Blue Oar Cottage is a wonderful place to have a weekend away. We spent 3 nights there and it accomodated two coyples very nicely.. Everything was clean and the lawns were freahly mown. I we had of had a cricket set we'd have played a game in the massive back yard. Paul and Penny were great communicators when we were ttrying to organise the weekend away on short notice. The range of things available to do in the cottage was. Awesome when we were having downtime and the kitchen is easy ro work in. The considerations taken for their guests are phenomenal. The bait fridge was an awesome touch.Ad2016-10-16T00:00:00Z

Great house, lovely and clean. Everything perfect. Would advise going to a supermarket on the way to the house as there is nothing close by. Great for a quiet countryside stayMary2016-12-27T00:00:00Z
We booked this venue to visit the Prom - it still quite a drive (45 min) but that was no big issue. We also visited the nearby Agnes Falls. The venue itself was very quiet with lot's of space around the cottage. Our girls loved the trampoline. We didn't use the shared bbq area, but it looked nice. The kitchen was very compleet and we also enjoyed some of the DVD' s present (together with the TV and dvd player). We did not need the aircon, but I think it can be a great asset if it is warm. We met Kim shortly and she was very kind. If you are looking for a basic cottage I would definitely recommend it.Robert2017-01-03T00:00:00Z

The house was clean and very well supplied. We would highly recommend the house and the location.Therese2016-04-05T00:00:00Z
We had the pleasure to stay at Arvin's beach retreat and my family had a fantastic time. Not too far from Wilsons Promontory. The house was fully equipped for 8 people and the couches were the comfiest I've ever used. The beach across the road also provided countless hours of entertainment. Thanks for opening your home to us. It was a beautiful beach themed haven.Garry2016-10-01T00:00:00Z

We enjoyed our stay at Tessa's place. The house has a very generous living area and we had a nice breakfast on the balcony overlooking the sea in the distance. There are plenty of comfortable sleeping places however remember to bring your own sheets. The scenery is beautiful and my two year old was excited to see wild rabbits and kookaburras hanging around the place. Toora is within easy walking distance and I recommend visiting Agnes falls only a short drive away. We had visited the Wilsons Promontory beforehand, and Tessa's place is about 50 minute drive from Tidal River. Tessa is a great host. Although we did not meet her, she was very clear in her communication and made it clear she was there to address any queries. The information in the house was also very handy.Kati2015-11-17T00:00:00Z
Ons verblijf was absoluut perfect. Het huis was mooi en ruim, en het omliggende uitzicht was ... prachtig. Hoewel ik niet de kans om onze gastheer, Tessa ontmoet had, in persoon, ze was erg beleefd en reageerde op al mijn boodschappen zeer snel. Als ik terug naar Wilsons Prom komen, zal ik zeker weer hier verblijven. Dank je!Nguyen2016-06-25T00:00:00Z
Thanks Tessa for a lovely stay in your wonderful home. Very happy with such a bright, spacious and well maintained home-away-from-home. The location is quiet and a fantastic spot from where to tour the local area. We enjoyed Sandy Point, Cape Liptrap and star gazing through your little telescope.Chiulan2016-02-16T00:00:00Z
Everything was clean and comfortable. The place was a little secluded but it all comes down to personal preference, we loved it! Tessa was very clear with her instructions and we encountered no major problems at all. The only minor issue was with the hot water, which ran out halfway when we had 10 of us taking turns. Wasn't a great problem though and there was hot water again the next morning. Would definitely recommend this place if you have a large group of people and wanted to explore Wilson's Prom with the comfort of having a nice bed to go back to every night.Xiang Quan2016-03-31T00:00:00Z

We arrived after dark and were quickly checked into the bottom floor of a two bedroom house. This place has its own entrance. As mentioned by the other reviewers, it's ginormous, you'll have your own full kitchen, dining room, bedroom with queen bed, shower. In the main room there is also something like a bunk bed/couch so I think in theory this place could sleep 3 (the ad says 2). This is about a 50 minute drive to Tidal River/Wilsons Prom, which is really not that bad considering that you could spend twice as much for something half as nice 25 minutes away just outside the park.Thomas2013-05-13T00:00:00Z
Accueil très chaleureux, appartement propre et très bien équipé, je recommande vivement! Merci pour votre hospitalitéClaire2016-06-21T00:00:00Z
Teresa's house is located in Toora, a really picturesque town near Wilson's Promontory. The accommodation is great ; you get a big downstairs room with bedroom, bathroom and cooking facilities, plus a cute yard/outdoor area. Wilson's Promontory national park gates are forty five minute's drive away, which as another reviewer pointed is as close as you can get to the Prom without renting a pricey beach shack or similar.Brendan2015-12-28T00:00:00Z
Geweldige plek - slaapkamer was mooi, lounge kamer was groot, keuken had alle faciliteiten, badkamer was vlekkeloos. Prachtig uitzicht rondom - het strand aan de voorzijde en het windpark op de rug! Sterk aanbevolen, zou zeker terugkeren! Dank je.Rohan2016-06-16T00:00:00Z
Bij aankomst was de sleutel in de deur en alles was netjes, schoon en netjes. Nogal een comfortabel en ruim appartement met uitzicht op de Prom en Toora heuvels. Hoewel we niet aan onze gastheer alles in orde was. Het bed was zeer comfortabel en de verwarming werkte uitzonderlijk goed zoals het was nogal kortaf buiten. Zoals we in het donker kwam de stap wanneer je door de poort was onverwacht en gelukkig niemand raakte gewond. Zoals ik onlangs had een totale knie vervanging van een teken of verlichting (zonne-energie) zou nuttig zijn geweest. Dank u Teresa voor 2 dagen van te ontspannen.Marg2016-06-20T00:00:00Z

We stayed for the Easter Long Weekend 2017 in this beautiful cottage. It has everything you could need from oven/cooktop & BBQ to the large bathroom with the best water pressure you could ask for from the ENORMOUS shower head. The pictures & text do not advise of this, there is another cottage that is located approximately 2-3m from one wall of the cottage - there was no disruption caused by this however. The location is quite isolated which is what you are looking for when booking accommodation like this, the driveway itself takes about 2-3 minutes from the road, the nearest supermarket is about 15 minutes, the National Park (Wilsons Prom) about 35-45 minutes & there are the Agnes Falls barely a 10 minute drive from the cottage itself. Overall it was a really wonderful experience.Chelsea2017-04-16T00:00:00Z
Beautiful hidden gem, very cozy and clean. The surroundings are out of a story book would love to visit again and will be recommending it to anyone wanting a Wilsons prom trip or just a country escape ! Thank you for having us.Charlotte2017-01-01T00:00:00Z
Really great place to go and rest. Very very peaceful place to have some family time or a romantic weekend away. It is very remote and is set at the top of a winding track that ends at Ingelside Cottage. The property itself is well maintained and is very historical in that it is a great example of what life would have e been like for people 100 years ago (minus the Netflix and wifi). The owner is very pleasant too. She has a flock of sheep that she lets live their lives on the land rather than for commercial gain. She even let my kids feed them. Really worth a stay.James2017-01-27T00:00:00Z

Bob's farm is amazing, chilling with chickens, picking perfect plums from trees and hanging with dairy cows - this oasis in the hills is a great retreat/escape. We had a wonderful time!!matt2017-01-06T00:00:00Z
We had such an amazing time at Walden Cottage! Bob was so welcoming as were the ever excited and enthusiastic Toby and Digger. The cottage was cosy and the beds very comfortable. Bob made us feel at home and was always happy to have a chat. He gave us some delicious eggs from the chooks that roam the farm and some other produce from Gardenfarm to sample. I can't begin to explain how relaxing an serene the farm was! The kids loved playing with Toby and Digger and patting the hens. There was lots of beautiful things to see see and walks do. However you could have a wonderful time and never leave the farm. The kids have been asking if we can return and have given Bob, the dogs and the farm a huge thumbs up! We will be back!Marianne2015-07-08T00:00:00Z
Ce fut une grande expérience à Walden ferme de Bob. Bob était très accueillant et si généreux pour nous parler. J'y ai passé deux nuits là-bas avec ma femme, ma mère et mon petit Jacob, et il était vraiment une escapade de la vie urbaine. Nous avons eu beaucoup de plaisir. Le chalet était très basique mais propre et avec tout. J'ai adoré le lit et les oreillers, et le sommeil de deux nuits était certainement mon meilleur de l'année. Jacob aimait les deux chiens Toby et Digger, et ma femme a toujours joué "stick-catch" jeu avec eux. En outre, les 300 poules en libre étaient absolument incroyable. Ce fut la première fois que Jacob de voir comment les poules pondent des œufs. En dehors de chooks, nous avons vu différents animaux de la ferme, des aigles, des vaches, des chevaux, des moutons, des perroquets et pour ne citer que quelques-uns. Dans l'ensemble, ce fut un voyage très relax et fantastique pour nous. Nous reviendrons pour voir Bob, Toby et Digger, 300 poules, vaches, étoiles brillantes et son 120 acres de terres agricoles.Fan2016-01-04T00:00:00Z
Nous avons eu les meilleures vacances à Gardenfarm. Nos enfants (âgés de 5 et 10 ans) ont adoré le trampoline, en jouant avec les chiens sympathiques, et bien sûr la collecte des œufs de chook. Bob est la vraie affaire - un RLF comme notre famille dit (réel agriculteur live) de sorte que vous obtenez de voir comment il gère sa ferme comme une entreprise. Nous avons apprécié les steaks de ses vaches et de gelée de coing et de prunes de ses arbres. Bob est aussi incroyablement accueillant et joyeusement rencontré des demandes bizarres de nos smalls.Rebecca2016-01-15T00:00:00Z

Bob's communication leading up to our stay was thorough. He was a brillaint host and made our stay at Walden Gardenfarm a very memorable one....we will definitely be back in the future!!! We all loved Digger and Toby's company and enjoyed being able to sample Bob's wares, including collecting eggs, vegetables and fruit.

It was an absolute delight staying at Val & Andy's place. It was beautifully presented and a lot of 'extras' supplied making the stay even more comfortable and enjoyable. I only wish I was in the area for pleasure not work so that I could have taken the time to really enjoy the stunning natural environment. Both Val and Andy were warm and welcoming and most helpful with local tips and recommendations. I highly recommend their place and look forward to returning - at leisure.Loraine2015-06-01T00:00:00Z
There are several things that take order of priority when booking accommodation. Outlook/view, location, comfort, things to do, hosts etc and often one has to give in order to have the rest. Not here. Andy and Val are a truly lovely couple whose cottage is supremely comfortable for a short or longer stay. We stayed two nights and would have happily stayed longer had time permitted. Waking to a gorgeous view and the gentle sounds of cattle and birds is a wonderful way to greet the morning. Located only five minutes drive from picturesque Port Albert and not far from National Park hiking, this is an ideally located place to while away a few days. I can't recommend highly enough.Chris2014-04-30T00:00:00Z
This was my second visit to Val and Andy's bnb. Val and Andy are special people and whilst the object of staying in their bnb is that the area is just so wonderful, I would also add that it is a treat to spend a little time with this couple. And the accommodation is also a treat. Thank you again Andy and ValJocelyn2014-12-20T00:00:00Z
This is a great place to stay. Val and Andy are extremely nice folks. They make you feel welcome and right at home. So much to see and do in that area. The 90 miles beach , the rain forest, Wilson's Prom... we had a super experience. But perhaps, best of all, was the country setting and feel of this place. Thank you Val and Andy for making our experience on your farm a wonderful one!Sylvain2015-02-16T00:00:00Z
Andy and Val were incredibly welcoming - nothing was too difficult. They offered plenty of advice but also left us to quietly relax. The place was awesome - gorgeous big windows. Everything you would need for a lovely weekend exploring the area.Pip2015-04-06T00:00:00Z
Val and Andy are exceptional hosts - so welcoming and generous! The location is beautiful and the room has everything you could want and more. There is a great tea and coffee selection as well as a fridge stocked full of breakfast goodies. We enjoyed a lovely cheese platter and drinks in the evening and were then treated to tea and barista coffee in the morning with our hosts. This is a wonderful place to stay and I recommend it without a hint of hesitation.Alice2016-04-06T00:00:00Z
For anyone coming to Australia is a must to sample Australian hospitality preferable in a step between Sydney and Melbourne An extraordinary setting: the organization details and the bungalow room and a fridge full of fresh coffee and tea for a royal breakfast with superb views of the surrounding countryside especially trade with the owners we had one of the best air time bnb we highly recommend for this welcome While respecting the privacy of their guests TopArnaud2016-12-13T00:00:00Z

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Twix is one of the sweetest pups you'll meet. She is super energetic and loves to play with her squeaky toys before cuddling up with her foster and foster siblings for the most adorable nap. Like all puppies Twix's age, she will need basic training, potty training, and lots of socialization. She is a great candidate for anyone with other pets or children as she loves to share her affection.
Twix, a South San Francisco Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) for sale in South San Francisco, or seeking a Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium) puppy from a breeder in South San Francisco.

Micro-Imaging Dust Analysis System
The Micro-Imaging Dust Analysis System (MIDAS) is one of several instruments on the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission which will study in-situ the environment around the active comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko as it flies into the inner Solar System.[1][2] MIDAS is an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) designed to collect dust particles emitted from the comet,[3][4] and then scan them with a very sharp needle-like tip to determine their 3D structure, size and texture with very high resolution (4 nanometers).[2]
Science goals[edit]
MIDAS is the first instrument capable of imaging the smallest cometary dust particles in-situ.[5] Some interplanetary dust particles collected in the Earth's stratosphere have been shown to have a cometary origin, but their precise provenance is typically unknown. The Stardust mission returned many cometary dust particles, collected during a fast flyby of comet 81P/Wild in aerogel, but these were highly modified, crushed and melted during deceleration and return to Earth.[6] MIDAS will be used primarily in particles a few micrometers in diameter or smaller.[2]
By collecting and imaging dust particles —tiny pieces of rock, ice and Organic compounds[6] — emitted from comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko as it passes through the inner Solar System, MIDAS address questions including:[2][5][7]
- What is the size and morphology of individual grains?
- What is the alteration history of individual grains?
- What is the size distribution of the smallest particles?
- Are grains crystalline or amorphous?
- Are grains compact, or highly porous and "fluffy"?
- What is the smallest "building block" of a grain?
Since comets are thought to be ancient, and contain material unchanged since their formation in the early Solar System, these questions will directly help support theories on the Solar System formation. The Principal Investigator is Mark Bentley from The Space Research Institute (IWF) in Austria.[5][6] The hardware is contributed by universities in Austria, the Netherlands and Germany.[5]
Instrument description[edit]
MIDAS is mounted on the nadir panel of the Rosetta spacecraft and is composed of three main subsystems and an electronics box:[1][2][5]
- a funnel, shutter and collimator to control dust collection
- a sample handling stage to collect and manipulate collected dust
- an atomic force microscope.
Dust collection is performed when close to the comet by opening the shutter and placing one of 61 targets directly behind the funnel. A collimator ensures that only one target at a time can be exposed. The targets are rectangular and 1.4 × 2.4 mm in size and are mounted around the circumference of a wheel. Rotating this wheel moves a target from the dust collection (exposure) position to the analysis (scanning) position. Once sufficient dust has been collected, the shutter is closed and the exposed target moved in front of one of 16 cantilevers. Each cantilever is fitted with a sharp tip; since these can be worn down in operation, the sixteen tips provide redundancy for the one year of nominal operation.
Cantilevers and tips[edit]
Each of the MIDAS cantilevers is piezo-resistive, meaning that its deflection is measured by a change in resistance, not by the reflection of laser light from the cantilever as in many commercial instruments. In this way the need for intricate optical alignment is avoided and the instrument could be made sufficiently robust to withstand launch. Sixteen cantilevers are carried for redundancy, each with a sharp tip of approximately 10 µm long. Four are coated with a cobalt alloy to allow magnetic force microscopy of collected dust.[5]
Sample handling[edit]
The MIDAS targets, on which dust particles are collected, are made of silicon and are rectangular in shape, with a dimension of 1.4 × 2.4 mm. Most are coated with a sol gel coating which aids in sticking particles to the targets. Three calibration targets are also carried, which allow calibration of the scanner in XY and in Z, and allow imaging of the tip shape. All 64 targets are mounted on the circumference of a wheel, which rotates to select a sample, to provide coarse Y positioning, and to move samples from the exposure to scanning position. The wheel can also be moved laterally, moving the wheel in front of each of the 16 cantilevers, and allowing for coarse X positioning.[5]
Coarse approach stage[edit]
Before a sample can be scanned, the microscope has to be brought close to the sample. This is achieved by a coarse approach stage driven by a brushed DC motor encased in a pressurised vacuum bellows. This motor drives a spindle which in turn raises or lowers a wheel placed in a spring-loaded wedge, as shown in the diagram.[which?] This allows the entire microscope stage to be moved by about 0.5 mm.[5]
Sample stage[edit]
The heart of the instrument is a precision XYZ stage with a travel of approximately 100 × 100 µm in XY and 10 µm in Z directions. Driven by piezo actuators this stage moves the selected cantilever and tip across the sample in a raster pattern, measuring the height of the sample at each point.[5]
Instrument specifications[edit]
The following table summarises the key characteristics of the instrument:[5][7]
|In-flight performance
|8.0 kg
|7.4 W (average)
|Lateral resolution
|3.8 nm
|Height resolution
|0.16 nm
|Height range
|8 µm
|Scan field
|min: 0.97 µm, max: 94 µm
|Image resolution
|32 × 32 - 512 × 512 pixels, 14 bits/pixel
|Working modes
|Contact, dynamic, magnetic
|Data channels
|Topography, error signal, phase shift, cantilever DC, AC, X/Y/Z-voltage & position
When the spacecraft was taken out of hibernation mode on 20 January 2014,[8][9] the MIDAS computer software was updated, and the instrument is being calibrated and tested.[10][11]
Although MIDAS has been operated during the long (10 year) cruise phase, it has never been in an environment where significant dust was expected. Thus the only results available to date are reference scans of the calibration and blank targets. Scientific data should be available to the public when the mission starts its primary science phase in November 2014, subject to the usual 6 months proprietary period. Data will be made available via the ESA Planetary Science Archive (PSA), where a dedicated Rosetta section is available.

You've probably read the USB Tekspek, and perhaps your intrigue, or product interest, has lead you to look up Firewire as well. The two are similar in some respects, particularly some of the products that use the two technologies. However, Firewire has its differences, which means it has both benefits and drawback when compared to USB. This Tekspek will look at Firewire and also look at it with respect to USB.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/3/2014 (1264 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Employing a stretch limo with the number $30,000,000,000 written across the side, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation bemoaned the size of the provincial debt this morning in front of the Legislative Building.
The CTF, known for using visual gimmicks to attract media attention, timed its latest government-spending critique on the eve of the provincial budget.
Finance Minister Jennifer Howard unveils her financial blueprint Thursday afternoon.
Colin Craig, the CTF's Prairie director, said gross provincial debt by the end of the current fiscal year March 31 is expected to reach $30.3 billion.
Currently, Craig said, the provincial debt is increasing by $6.78 million per day or $78 per second, and the NDP government has shown little willingness to get it under control.
"The government isn't taking the debt problem seriously," he said.
"You'll hear them say they're clamping down on spending. It's true that they have made some progress, but when you look at the big-picture numbers they're not taking the situation seriously enough."
Greg Selinger should "lead by example," and reduce the size of cabinet, which is now larger than it was when he took over as premier from Gary Doer, Craig said.
The CTF has been critical in the past of government investments in a new football stadium, an expanded convention centre and the new Canadian Museum for Human Rights, which is set to open in September.
The government's net debt, which takes into account the value of public assets, stands at $17.3 billion, according to the province's latest estimates.

After two months in London as an eCommerce intern, what have I learned?
So. Today it's been exactly two months since I moved here to London to do my internship (and to live some as well).
I started my internship just the day after I arrived. It was action from the first start.
I'm doing my internship at a design furniture company called Infurn (http://www.infurn.com/) registered in the UK, but their biggest market is Scandinavia because most of the designers are from there.
My focus has been to do the things I want to develop in, such as campaign analysis and budgets flow and a to be able to se faults and report improvements all over (also focus on Google AdWords and Analytics). Because the work at a eCommerce company is'nt just about doing one thing, of course you're specialized on something. It's about always have control over the bigger view. How to solve delivery problems, everything from small problem as deal with product pictures to major delivery problems.
A big part of being a eCommerce Business student at Hyper Island has been to get better at cooperation. Another part of Hyper Island is to strive after a harmony and balanced co-oping within the group you're in. Too learn to feedback and lift each other in the process of creating and building strategies etc. Feedback and reflecting upon fails and go further to better solutions.
One of the funniest part have been to learn to talk and handle B2B deals and campaigns. That's a amazing experience- To see the outcome from an campaign idea to a meeting, and then from a meeting to a bigger meeting, and then to an email and then to phone calls and Skype conferences. And finally to sign a agreement.
Also a great part of having an internship in a other country is the possibility to move. I've just been to London once, three years ago. I was'nt falling in love with the city, but I found it interesting. I choose to go to London because of the reason I knew a friend working at the company and I saw a huge potential to grow (career wise) in London than it was if I was about to stay in Stockholm.
If you (as an student going for internship) have got the gut to ask for a paid internship - do it. I think companies set a higher value on you as a intern when you're paid compared to not be. But the drawback could be that the things you really want to do is slipping aside, when the company sees you as a part time employee.
I'll write more about my experience this weekend!

Pensioners dance their way to improved health
Greek dancing has been found to have major health benefits for the older generation, a new study has found.
The over 70s were around when dance crazes like The Twist and The Jive exploded onto the scene, but most won't have kept up with routines as they've grown older.
However, researchers at Aristotle University in Greece have studied pensioners who suffered from chronic heart disease and found those who took up traditional Greek dancing, can jump higher and walk faster than those who shun the moves.
Exercise physiologist Zacharias Vordos and his team looked at a test group of 40 Greek participants, with an average age of 73, who had all suffered from heart issues and hadn't exercised in the past year. They were split into two groups; the first took part in a three month rehabilitation programme based on traditional Greek dancing while the second continued with no exercise. The Greek dancing sessions lasted for 40 to 65 minutes once a week.
At the start of the study the patients were tested on their ability to jump, leg muscle strength and walking ability. No differences were found between the two sub groups, but after three months the dancers were 10 per cent stronger than those who took no exercise, jumped 10 per cent higher, and were 6 per cent faster. Results showed the sedentary group demonstrated no change.
"The physical benefits of Greek dancing should give patients more independence in daily life by helping them to walk and climb stairs," Zacharias said.
"It should also improve their coordination and reduce their risk of falling and being injured. It is possible that Greek dancing also gives cardiac benefit as demonstrated by Zumba fitness programmes with Latin music."
The traditional dance was chosen because Greek dancing is an important part of weddings and other celebrations, and is popular among older people.
The study has been published in the European Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing.

Ok. So I met this guy I really liked. Let's call him Jake.
Then he reached across the table and put his hand on my shoulder, claiming that his arms were longer. I put my hand on his shoulder, and claimed that mine were longer. Was that flirting.. or?
Him: Maybe, who's asking?
Me: Ashley!! Haha.
Him: okkkkkkk and what do u want?
Him (again): okkkkkkk and what do u want?
Me: I guess wanted I to say hi?
Him: Ok?
Me: I m glad you're not some sort of creep.
Him: K.
I was sorta hurt by him responding so coldly. But he apologized later.
I went a month without seeing him. And on the first day I saw him again, he literally would not stop staring at me. It was weird..
I continued seeing him and he wouldn't say much. So, I just told him I liked him. And he said he didn't like anyone, but hugged me. In the past, He's said that he didn't want to date anyone and just focus on school. and I accepted that answer and started moving on.
But he still stares at me a lot. Even my friends have pointed out how much he stares.

When you are young and starting out on your own, you think that the days of calling your parents and crying are far behind you. But when I was 20, I found myself lying on a bench in the middle of the NC State campus on the phone with my dad, and I was bawling.
I had started my college career with a plan. I was going to major in political science then go to Duke for law school. Somewhere in transition, my plan had lost its appeal, and I was no longer happy. A few days later I was changing my major. I wanted to wake up each day and do something I love. So, I found the English department, which welcomed me with open arms. I had a new plan, it was to have a BA in English with a concentration in Language, Writing and Rhetoric. I thought I would go into publishing.
In the novel The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho writes that "when you want something, the whole universe conspires in helping you achieve it". Another version of this quote has been attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson. Perhaps these men are two of my favorite writers because I share the same philosophy. However, I only thought I knew what I wanted; and the universe yet again, had another plan.
As a sophomore in the Spring of 2012, I walked into a class called EMA 370: Practical Arts Entrepreneurship. I thought I was enrolled in the class to meet a general education requirement. The universe said I was there to discover my dream.
A couple of weeks later, a class requirement was to come up with a business, real or theoretical, we would be interested in starting. This idea would be one we worked with for the rest of the semester. I had no idea of what I could do. My only musical talent is playing the radio, and my artwork is far from gallery worthy. So, I waited, thinking the idea would come if I just kept sleeping on it. My professor, Dr. Gary Beckman, didn't have time for me to "keep sleeping on it". He emailed me saying he needed to know before the next class period. As I continued reading through my email, I couldn't stop ignoring a pain that ran through my left foot. Then I realized, this was my sign, the answer to my homework.
For 14 years I took dance classes, but the stress it put on my body lasted even after my dance days ended. I thought to myself, "My body wouldn't feel like this if I would have had something to protect it". Dance is classified as an art, so the athleticism is often ignored, which means Nike and other sports brands don't make products for me. Like most art, aesthetics have to be taken into account. Dancers have to look the same—you can't have braces or wraps on stage, and in practice, you are lucky to find a brace that fits in your shoe without stretching it. So what did I tell Dr. Beckman? "I want to integrate a brace-like support into dance tights."
His response? "This is BRILLIANT. If you can get a prototype you will have something INCREDIBLE on your hands."
Challenge accepted.
I moved on to doing things that terrified me. Like getting lost on Centennial Campus while trying to find the College of Textiles, and entering the Arts Feasibility division of the Lulu eGames. I must take a moment to say that this was the first time I ever understood how much fear can hold you back in life. Had I not been willing to get absolutely lost, I would not have jumped from person to person until I found a hosiery manufacturer in North Carolina who was willing to work with me and run prototypes. A few years ago, the thought of public speaking made me feel sick. However, presenting at the Lulu eGames proved that people believed in what I was doing. Plus, I walked away with the 3rd place prize of $1,500 and an invitation to join NC State's Entrepreneurship Initiative Garage.
I spent the next year learning and absorbing all of the information I could. I joined the EI Garage where I met a wonderful community of student entrepreneurs and staff who were willing to guide me. The focus of my school work started to change as I was more eager to sign up for classes with my Arts Entrepreneurship minor. I started prototyping dance tights and talking to attorneys. I learned about pitching and networking.
Everything was moving so quickly and smoothly, until Spring 2013 came. Suddenly I needed money that I didn't have, and fast. I knew of a few other Raleigh companies that had done Kickstarter campaigns. I knew Soutenu wasn't as far along, but it was worth a shot. My goal? $4,000 in 3 weeks. It was the most stressful time of my life. I still have nightmares about it. I sat in class hiding my phone waiting to receive emails saying that someone had pledged to my campaign. By a miracle, I got funded on the last night my Kickstarter was live.
Summer turned to fall, and once again I found myself in a new place. I had gotten my final prototype, the one I deemed good enough to take to market. I was beyond excited; however, I was burnt out. I made the executive decision to take the semester off. Trying to take care of my health and focusing on making it to graduation seemed like things I should invest in again. At first, I thought I was crazy, then I learned that almost all entrepreneurs experience times that they, too, want to do nothing but hide in bed and cuddle with their pillows.
I made a promise to a friend who believed in me more than anyone else that I would not quit, so I resumed my work during the next semester. I can only hope that friend knows how grateful I am for them keeping my dreams alive and my passions burning. During the time off I did a lot of thinking, and I knew that I could no longer keep doing things alone. In February, I asked my long time friend, Amanda Ackovitz to join me on this journey. She and I danced together when we were younger, and she knows about the industry and injuries as well as I do. We worked on pricing models, projections and tweaking the business plan, but decided it was best not to launch until I graduated.
This brings me to where I am today. A few weeks ago, my patent attorney called to say that I can file for a second patent. Naturally, I agreed that we should go for it, even though this means my product will not be on the market until about Christmas (but if you want to pre-order, go to soutenudance.com to send us a message!). And, later this month I will be moving into an office space with the company Frill Clothing, which I met during my time in the EI. I cannot wait to see what they have to teach me.
I'm sure I could have moved faster or made a few decisions that were a little smarter. But somewhere on the road, I learned that part of being an entrepreneur just means doing you, because your business is a reflection of who you are and the things you care about.
So before I give my last thought, I must thank the people who have helped me along the way (this could be the closest thing I ever get to accepting an Academy Award). First and foremost to Dr. Gary Beckman for being the best professor, mentor and friend I could have ever asked for. NC State and the EI for the people, spaces and programs. To Kayla and Jacki, for making sure that I ate, slept and stayed alive. To Ben, for asking how my business is doing, even if he never understood anyway. To Seth, for helping me navigate Centennial and "talking science". And to my best friend, Karissa, for knowing how to go on an adventure to rescue me from all the dark places.
So my advice: go on a journey, take a map, get lost anyway.

I'm going to be painting luster dust onto hardened fondant decorations, but i don't want the dust to transfer onto my fingers when it dries and i go to place it onto the cake. How do i make this happen? Does 95% alcohol or lemon extract mixed with the luster dust help it to stick to the decorations even when dried? Does one work better than the other? I was going to use alcohol because i've read that it dries faster and doesn't leave an after taste.
Wave the dusted decorations over a boiling pot of water briefly, just a second or two. The steam sets the dust.
So if i mix luster dust and alcohol, then paint it on and let it dry, then wave the piece over boiling water...it will set it? Just want to make sure i have all the steps right
Yes, it will :) Lustre dust dries instantly when you are using alcohol. The waving over the pot of boiling water sounds precarious. Better use a steamer or a kettle. Watch your fingers! And as you were told, just hold it over the steam briefly so that the fondant softens and absorbs the colour. Try it out with a piece of scrap fondant till you feel confident. Oh one last thing: best paint the dusts when your fondant is bone dry. If you do it whilst it is still damp, the colours might run. And be careful not to have a very liquid colour solution on a very thin piece of fondant because guess what? alcohol is a rejuvenator - so it restores the wetness of the fondant! LOL
Thank you so much!! This helps a lot! I was actually thinking of laying the pieces on something and flashing them with steam from my iron.
Lemon extract is superior for 2 reasons when painting with luster dust--first, the oil helps to keep the paint smoother, resulting in less streaking, and second, it does stop the dust from coming off on your hands after the paint has dried. I use lemon extract most of the time for these reasons.
I was wondering about that! Thank you so much! Looks like i'll be using lemon extract instead! Sounds much easier than steaming :)

Two women explore the possible answers to a feminist riddle.
Perhaps the kind of movie you would imagine a film-school student, in a particularly experimental phase, to make, Sally Potters debut feature is a much more radical demonstration of her interests and style than her better-known flicks Orlando and The Man Who Cried. Essentially structured around two quests Julie Christies exploration of her memories, Colette Lafonts investigation into the nature of finance Potters film tackles the commodification of women, and the pleasures and pitfalls of mainstream cinema. The movie is as cold as its Icelandic landscapes but there is wit in the dance numbers and Potter crafts both arresting imagery and a surreal, absurdist tone reminiscent of later David Lynch.
Surreal and sardonic, this is an occasionally witty but ultimately flawed piece of art.

Irish hockey stopper tells us about fulfilling his lifelong Olympic dream
IN the early hours of an otherwise nondescript Sunday morning last October, David Harte learned that he had achieved his lifetime sporting ambition – from his girlfriend Lynn!
For the first time in 108 years the Irish men's hockey team has qualified for the Olympics.
Kinsale native Harte – who the International Hockey Federation named as Goalkeeper of the Year in their Hockey Stars 2015 awards – will skipper the Irish squad which includes his twin brother Conor.
Four years ago Ireland came within seconds of securing a coveted spot at the London Olympics, only to concede a late goal to South Korea in the final qualifying tournament in Dublin.
"I can only speak for myself, but for me it was the toughest moment of my sporting career," David recalls.
Though redemption came last autumn, it was by no means straightforward. Despite beating two of the game's super powers, Malaysia and Pakistan, in a qualifying tournament, they only finished fifth overall.
Essentially they need other countries to do them a favour if they were to secure one of the 12 places available in Rio. Ultimately, everything hinged on the outcome of the Oceania Cup final between the number one ranked nation in the world Australia and their next-door neighbours New Zealand.
While most of his Irish squad gathered in a BBC studio in Belfast to watch a live transmission of the game, Harte was in his apartment in the Dutch city of Utrecht.
"I had decided not to follow the game so I just tried to get some sleep, but my girlfriend Lynn was secretly checking the Twitter feed under the blanket. Eventually she turned around and asked 'how does it feel that your team is going to Rio?'" Australia had won 3-2.
Less than 24 hours after the opening ceremony at next month's Games, Harte will lead out Ireland in the Olympic Hockey Centre in Rio for their first match in the tournament against India. By any standards it has been an epic journey for the Harte twins.
The story begins in Carrickmore, Co. Tyrone, where their father Kieran hails from. He was a goalkeeper, but in Gaelic football. He won an Ulster U-21 championship medal with Tyrone and later played for the senior side which was beaten by Donegal in the 1972 Ulster final.
Later he married a Kerry woman and the couple settled outside Kinsale, Co. Cork where they raised a family of four, twins David and Conor and sisters Ciara and Emer.
Initially the twins played Gaelic football and hurling with Courcey Rovers and the hockey bug didn't bite until they enrolled in Bandon Grammar School.
"I started off with Conor in first year and I enjoyed it because I we had the hand-eye coordination from hurling, but I was still missing something. I saw a few of my classmates playing in goal and I decided to try it out and was hooked from day one."
Harte is 6ft5in and when fully clad out in the protective gear he's an imposing figure. And with a ball whizzing around at speed of 130 kilometres an hour, the job requires nerves of steel.
"It is a fine line between bravery and stupidity, but at least we're better protected than hurling goalkeepers," he says.
Virtually from day one he was a high achiever in the sport, earning the first of his 154 Irish caps when he was just 18. And he was ambitious.
"I've always set myself goals and even though no Irish hockey team had qualified for the Olympics since 1908 one of my career goals was to compete at the Olympics."
The crushing disappointment Ireland endured before the London Games only reinforced his determination.
"It spurred that group of players to go for it again and it make the qualification all the more sweeter," says the 28-year-old.
Harte studied in DCU where he qualified as a biology and physical education teacher and he was pleasantly surprised to learn that he could earn his living as a professional hockey player – provided he emigrated.
He joined the Utrecht-based SV Kampong club which competes in the Dutch professional league, as well as the hockey equivalent of the Champions League.
Last season they missed out on winning their domestic trophy on a golden goal, but secured more significant silverware last May, winning the Champions League in the final in Barcelona.
Conor also plays the game professionally for the Belgian based Royal Racing Club de Bruxelles. In all, seven of the 15-member squad are based abroad – in Belgium, Holland and the UK. While their clubs are contractually obliged to release them for international duty, it is more problematic for the home-based players.
"Those of us based abroad have an opportunity to earn a decent living playing the game, but the lads who have full-time jobs are either taking unpaid leave or quit their jobs in order to train and participate in the Olympics."
David Harte in action
David has also played in India, where hockey is second only to cricket in terms of popularity and matches can attract crowds of 10,000.
During the indoor hockey season in Holland, their top players can be recruited to play in a special league featuring teams based in six of India's major cities.
Since 2013, Harte has been recruited by Mumbai-based clubs and is the eighth most expensive player in the competition and the most expensive goalkeeper. Initially 'bought' for a fee of $11,000 in 2013, the Dabang Mumbai franchise had to pay $65,000 dollars to secure his services for the 2016 season.
"One has to live there and move around between the cities to experience what life is like in India. It is a phenomenal experience, both from a hockey and life experience."
Conor plays with the same Mumbai club and when the pair – both of whom have blond hair – walk down the street in India they tend to turn heads and are the subject of countless selfies.
For the next month, though, the focus is Rio. Ireland are in Pool A along with the Netherlands, Germany, Argentina, India and Canada. They face five games in seven days, with the top four qualifying for the knockout phase.
"Obviously we will approach each game individually, but our main objective is to reach the quarter-finals."
While Ireland had to depend on Australia to secure their place in Rio, they proved their mettle on the European stage last year when they won the bronze medal in the European Championships. Better still, they beat Great Britain to secure the medal, with Harte securing the Goalkeeper of the Tournament award.
The entire family is united behind Ireland as they get ready to take their place among the top dozen nations in the world.
However, things could change in September if Kerry and Tyrone end up meeting All-Ireland final.
"It gets pretty tough in our house when it comes around to the final and they are playing each other," he smiles.

Natalie has made numerous memorable visits to Blackberry Farm over the last decade. Her love for the place and the people there brings her back, again and again. And so, for the third time, we've partnered with Blackberry Farm to offer a weekend sewing workshop, hosted on-site at the Smoky Mountain property. Located on a 4,200-acre working farm in Walland, Tennessee, Blackberry Farm makes it their goal to preserve the Appalachian culture and cuisine that surrounds them. The Farm offers superb on-site chefs, an award-winning wine cellar, an exquisite spa, and sincere hospitality. For these reasons (and many more), we happily return for another unique experience in this incredible setting. The Blackberry Farm Classic Weekend Workshop takes place from January 27 – 29, 2017.
The workshop includes all the materials you will need to create a custom, hand-sewn garment from one of our four Studio Books (Alabama Stitch Book, Alabama Studio Style, Alabama Studio Sewing + Design, and Alabama Studio Sewing Patterns). Guests will be immersed in the Alabama Chanin philosophy as they work with Natalie and learn various stitching techniques, tips, and tricks. Conducted in a casual, open forum, the workshop covers a wide range of topics such as the physics of sewing, garment construction, and discussions on sustainable design. Along with sewing instruction, all guests will enjoy Blackberry Farm cuisine, fellowship, laughter, and a have a chance to explore their mountain surroundings.
For reservations and pricing, please contact Blackberry Farm at 1-800-273-6004 or firstname.lastname@example.com
For more information regarding workshop project details, contact workshops (at) alabamachanin.com, or call: +1.256.760.1090 Tuesday – Friday 8:30 am – 4:30 pm CST.

Writing Blog that Crowds Would Want to Follow
So, you are smart, got distinct writer's voice and passion for writing but all this doesn't work for your blog? You keep asking yourself: what is it that I'm doing wrong? Why some are lucky to get thousands of visitors every day while my blog attracts something about 5 readers a week? That may be discouraging. Hold on! Don't give blogging up. Here are tips that may fix the situation.
What's the aim of your blog? It's time you sorted it out
Naturally, blog is for people. This is content audience would want to read, find something useful in it and share with others. But such principle works only with blogs that have a clearly-defined purpose. Have you got the one? No? Then it's time you sort it out what audience you would like to write for and what value your writing delivers.
Let everybody know that you blog
Where do your potential readers hang out? Yeah, exactly! Social networks. If they share your content at such crowded websites like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter your traffic will grow. For this include share buttons in your blog posts and wait for your audience to multiply. Believe, it will.
Mind SEO while blog promotion
SEO unawareness won't get your blog far. Without text optimized for Google, your blog will simply be invisible. You may not get deep in all SEO techniques but selecting appropriate keywords and phrases that get indexed by search engines is vital for your blog. Spread these words evenly throughout blog post, placing the most essential ones closer to beginning and in a title. Also mind the number of characters. Keep it manageable for your readers to be able to share your content easily.
Don't sound unnatural
What is blog? These are ideas that come from your mind. It's like telling your friend about that gorgeous dress you've seen in the shop window lately. It means that your words should come easily and sound natural. This way you'll hook the audience.
Be responsive
Be an active blogger. Respond to every feedback that your blog posts evoke. Even if these are negative commentaries, don't stay aloof. The more you respond, the more traffic you produce to your blog.
Lots of luck!

Ikoma Kometsu was the governor of the Kurai District of Toshi Ranbo. He was a dignified samurai who earned his position after many years service to his Clan and Empire. [1]
Views on Politics Edit
Kometsu had little taste for politics, and generally presided over the court with a detached and almost amused air. He would watch as the courtiers wrangled over matters he often considered to be beneath the dignity of a samurai. His own attentions were occupied primarily with the governance of his district. [1]
Rebuilding Edit
In the time since the Winter of Red Snow, the Khan Moto Chagatai's invasion in 1169, Kometsu devoted himself to the labor of rebuilding the damage done to the district. As a result he spent even less time in court, allowing his various Imperial clerks and functionaries to run it as they saw fit. Naturally, the Otomo did not discourage this, since it served to further increase their influence in the city. [1]
