The UILabel is a great tool for displaying lines of text in any view and is easy to set up using the provided Interface Builder. Unfortunately, there is a deceptive option in the Label Attributes that says "Font Size: Adjust To Fit." This is a great feature because it means that the iPhone will automatically resize your text down in order to fit all of it into the label. Unfortunately, this feature only works when your label's layout is set to single-line. If your text is multiline like ours was, it won't adjust the font size at all!
Well we did some brief searching around to locate a solution to this problem but ended up simply writing our own. We have the following situation:
- We have dynamic text, the exact quantity of which varies.
- We want to place that text in a fixed-width and fixed-height UILabel
- We don't want the text to get cutoff if it doesn't fit perfectly
In order to meet this challenge, we wrote some simple code to automatically resize the text.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39
//Create a string with the text we want to display. self.ourText = @"This is your variable-length string. Assign it any way you want!"; /* This is where we define the ideal font that the Label wants to use. Use the font you want to use and the largest font size you want to use. */ UIFont *font = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Marker Felt" size:28]; int i; /* Time to calculate the needed font size. This for loop starts at the largest font size, and decreases by two point sizes (i=i-2) Until it either hits a size that will fit or hits the minimum size we want to allow (i > 10) */ for(i = 28; i > 10; i=i-2) { // Set the new font size. font = [font fontWithSize:i]; // You can log the size you're trying: NSLog(@"Trying size: %u", i); /* This step is important: We make a constraint box using only the fixed WIDTH of the UILabel. The height will be checked later. */ CGSize constraintSize = CGSizeMake(260.0f, MAXFLOAT); // This step checks how tall the label would be with the desired font. CGSize labelSize = [self.ourText sizeWithFont:font constrainedToSize:constraintSize lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap]; /* Here is where you use the height requirement! Set the value in the if statement to the height of your UILabel If the label fits into your required height, it will break the loop and use that font size. */ if(labelSize.height <= 180.0f) break; } // You can see what size the function is using by outputting: NSLog(@"Best size is: %u", i); // Set the UILabel's font to the newly adjusted font. msg.font = font; // Put the text into the UILabel outlet variable. msg.text = self.ourText;
To use the above text, you need to make a "IBOutlet UILabel *msg;" which you assign as the UILabel's Reference Outlet from the interface builder.
And there you have it: easy automatic resizing of multi-line text to fit in your fixed-size UILabel for the iPhone using Objective-C!

Internet Explorer 7: Should We Stop Supporting it?
Internet Explorer 6 is finally dying a death. It's been a really long time coming, but it seems to be widely accepted that we – as web designers – no longer support it. That's fine, but what about the rest? There's another 3 versions of IE with a fourth released as a beta. Is it time to set our sites on Internet Explorer 7?
The Browser Competition
The way Chrome is updated is fantastic. Silent updates in the background, and then installations when you restart the browser. Seamless. Firefox prompts you to update – a bit more invasive but still helpful. Internet Explorer on the other hand only seems to update with each new version of the Windows Operating System. Not great for standards or innovation. The benefits of auto updates is that they help keep the browsers ahead of the game, and increase adoption rates hugely meaning that Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox are updated by users much more quickly.
Browser Stats
A common argument when discussing browser support is comparing browser share for your audience. I know that browser usage is changing rapidly at the moment but I haven't checked my own stats in a while. So, I logged into Google Analytics to check things out. Below is what I found:
|Internet Explorer
That's right – Internet Explorer is just 9.5% of the Binary Moon visitors! Of that 9.5% over 80% are using IE 8 or IE 9. So – for my site I am definitely dropping support. Will this work for larger websites though? Or websites with less technically savvy audiences?
It definitely needs to be decided on a case by case basis, but I do think that it's approaching the end of the road for Internet Explorer 7.

One interesting approach has been an IE 7 Tax.
Government websites, or sites for non-profit social services, should probably support blasted old tech, browsers, and ridiculousness like 14k dial-up 😉 I noticed NetZero is still pressing dial up connection CDs like it's the late 90's and Walmart is their main distributor. Shutter.
As for me and my products, IE 7 is dead.
There is a little JavaScript file [ HTML5shiv.js ] that you can include in the head of your page to allow HTML5 tag styling in versions of Internet Explorer prior to version 9. The following code will give IE < 9 some HTML5 tag styling support:
More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5_Shiv
It looks like the code chunk from the previous post commented itself out. Here it is again. Remove the backslashs between < \ !
Hum… that didn't work either. Was hoping the backslash would allow the code chunk to display. Oh well …
Ben if you would be so kind as to remove this comment and the one previous, which contained my second attempt to add the three lines of header code to the comments of this page.

Monday Magazine - Danielle Pope, September 7, 2011
Jaime Hall and Nigel Jackett are cycling across Canada to raise funds for the Ancient Forest Alliance.
Finding a cause you really believe in can be hard, but one Victoria native and one Aussie are making tough activist work look easy.
Jaime Hall and Nigel Jackett are so committed to supporting the Ancient Forest Alliance, they've dedicated six months of their lives and $10,000 of personal funds to cycle 7,500 kilometres across Canada to raise awareness for the AFA's Vancouver Island cause. Last May, the two flew from their home in Australia to start the trip in St. John's, N.L., and they're set on raising $10,000 by the time they cycle into Victoria this fall.
Cycling across Canada "has been a dream of mine for a long time, but we just needed to find the right reason to do it," says Hall, 25, a musician who grew up here. "There are so many issues out west that a lot of the country doesn't know about, even though it affects us all. This has been a wonderful way to spread that knowledge."
The two are linking their adventures with the audience through their blog, tilthelasttree.com, and have requested pledges every time they spot a new species of bird. When Monday first talked to the pair, they had spotted 168 species and had raised $1,300 — and they'd only reached New Brunswick. Now, they've counted 240 different birds, and have topped $2,140 in Ontario.
"Ken Wu and the Ancient Forest Alliance have put such a lot of work into this really great, passionate organization, and we thought that donating our cause to them was a perfect fit," says Jackett, 27, a bird biologist from Australia who studied and surveyed for the B.C. government on Vancouver Island.
Ken Wu, founder of the AFA, says the organization is thrilled with the committed support, as well as the way Hall and Jackett are working to raise awareness to issues that can be hidden from the rest of the country. Hall met Wu about five years ago, and the two have conversed on wilderness and eco-awareness matters ever since.
"Their goal is to raise $10,000 for us, which would be huge, as in 2010 we ran the whole organization on just over $50,000," says Wu. "We're totally grateful to have as informed and dedicated supporters as Jaime and Nigel helping to raise funds and awareness for our campaign."
This year, the AFA has been focused on working with the Hul'qumi'num Treaty Group, a First Nations band between Shawnigan Lake and Nanaimo, in their bid to stop large-scale clearcutting of the former TimberWest lands — lands which were sold to two public sector pension funds without consultation of local First Nations. The AFA has also kept up awareness hikes for Avatar Grove, the Port Renfrew forest that largely put the group in public radar, and has been planning a major rally for September.

mid-day editorial: Hey Ram! Focus on amenities instead
With the Oshiwara station set to be unveiled in a matter of months, the BJP and the Shiv Sena want it to be named Ram Mandir Station, in recognition of a popular temple in the area, a front page report in this paper stated yesterday
With the Oshiwara station set to be unveiled in a matter of months, the BJP and the Shiv Sena want it to be named Ram Mandir Station, in recognition of a popular temple in the area, a front page report in this paper stated yesterday.
Both political parties have been making a pitch for the under-construction Oshiwara station, set to be operational in November to be named Ram Mandir. They base their argument on the fact that there is a popular Ram Mandir in the area. Instead of lending a communal colour to the facility, one could just keep it Oshiwara station.
Like we have Andheri station or Jogeshwari station, Oshiwara station should suffice.
The report adds that leaders from the two parties have even raised their demand with Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu and Home Minister Rajnath Singh, and have reportedly asked Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to follow up on it.
These are dangerous political games, aimed at capturing eyeballs and publicity, keeping the issue in the news and stirring the communal sentiment pot.
Instead of shouting about what this station should be named, the leaders can pitch in with water fountains, hygienic food stalls, take some interest in FOBs, all in conjunction with the Railways of course. They can also see if an escalator can be installed at the station, ensure the quality of construction work and availability of transport options outside the station.
Through the years, political parties have made public infrastructure battlegrounds to push their ends. Endless wars about what bridges or roads should be named, which leader should inaugurate gardens, flyover-naming fracas have resulted in project delays and infantile controversies.
Let us concentrate on what is really important, giving a well equipped, modern and good quality station to the Western Railway commuter and of course, to Mumbai city at large.

A great new bill was introduced to Congress yesterday… Authored by Bernie Sanders (I-VT), it would create incentives and tax rebates for solar roofs and solar water heaters. The bill aims to get 10 million solar roofs and 200,000 solar heaters up and running–producing a total of 30,000 megawatts–over the next 10 years. Quite frankly, this is a very, very good idea.

Best Travel Sites Research
Khon Kaen Thailand Southeast Asia
I am hopefully going to compile and create my list of Top Travel Sites of 2006, therefore I am worried...
2006 is ending in a few days.
Last years picks were:
I go to google.com and search for terms like - Best - Top - etc and hope to find something I did not notice or remember.
I am a difficult person, hard to recommend something that I do not use and I see that most of the recommendations by these sites.... I feel or am sure the writer never used in his or her life. But, they sounded good, had the right credentials and had the proper style.
I am a traveler, I spent over 335 t0 345 days outside the USA last year ,and the year before, but doe this count? I am not sure....
(Whistle Blowing in background)
We need a ruling, what is a the "Travel Rules" on what qualifies a person as a traveler?
Do we first need to decide, are you a traveler or a tourist?
I am traveler, I do not have 24/7 Internet connections.
What I will recommend and continue to recommend are sites that I use, not what sounds good and for sure sites that are impossible to use in an Internet cafe in 15 minutes.
I have been perusing the sites, and most are not useful, they are fun, there is a huge difference, however do TOURIST have needs? Give them another beer please.
I have essential safety needs, planning needs, and go to dangerous places sometimes, there is a difference between need and a luxury tour.
So, I use site for information mostly, answering the questions, that need an answer.
Oh well, maybe the other sites are written by travel writers, I always wonder what the are doing at home in this high tech age of travel, Don't they earn enough money to travel, or are all trips free or given to them for them saying nice things...

Wednesday January 17, 2007
I am trying to decide, which site going to be chosen and placed in my travel newsletter and made my Top Travel Sites of 2006, a year in review.
I have went through my collection of links on pages, bookmarks, the sites I can type into the browsers direct because I remember the link URL. Sites I search for in Google.com than go to an look at, what I have on my computer, somehow they are in my world.
CIA World Political Map
Hobo World News
en.wikipedia.org List of Low Cost Carriers
Boston Time
Wikipedia.org- English
Foreign Entry Requirements
Whc.unesco.org World Heritages Sites
Forbes.com Travel PORTAL
Johnnyjet.com Travel Vortal PORTAL
Renamestar.com - Rename Photos
DCE AutoEnhance - Shrink photos from Big to Small
My evolving and changing criteria on how I choose.
1. One Hour per day on Internet is all I can use...
2. Found in search engines
3. Came into my world of view
4. Does not require bookmark, favorites.
5. Do not need a PERSONAL computer to use
6. Free
7. Is not USA centric
8. Needed not fun
9. Trust, I do not feel the sites are looking out for my best interest.
10. I remember the URL
11. I bookmark it
12. One click max
13. Traveler versus Tourist
Top Travel Site Research
Kathmandu Nepal Asia
Monday January 22, 2007
I am working on my Top Travel Sites of 2006 in English, a year in Review. By do this, I learn about travel and I learn about people, a good reason to travel… hehehe and to write.
Ok, I am trying to expand my understand of why I like a Internet site, so by explaining to myself by way of writing in my journal, I learn about myself and the site, what was abstract and unclear, starts to become clear.
On CNN, there is some show about Web 2.2 or CNN trying to couple an interview with something about Flickr.com a photo-sharing site with the second generation of the Internet.
I do agree we have entered a second generation of the Internet; the Internet is about the age of a 3 year old. However, the reason and almost nothing to do with Flickr.com, and really is because of - Contextual Advertising -, which has not created a feasible way for the Internet to make money.
OK, I was thinking, the photos on the site, the photos in my newsletter are probably the biggest reason person read my newsletter. I am not going to delude myself and believe everyone love my writing, the photos help.
Show off your favorite photos to the world, securely and privately show photos
I went to Google.com and search for PHOTOS OF NEPAL.
NOTE: Flickr.com is not even in the list of mine for candidates for Top Travel Sites, I am just making sure I am not being unaware of something. It is a popular site, I do not see it as much value to a traveler. When they go home, maybe of value.
I searched for - Photos of Nepal in Google.com.
Results 31 - 40 of about 1,780,000 for photos of nepal. (0.06 seconds)
Number 33 I found this link from Flickr.com:
(Flickr.com comes up first and not a persons photos.)
Hmm, on CNN they said that Yahoo.com purchased Flickr.com, maybe I should go to Yahoo.com and search.
your favorite photos to the world, securely and privately show photos
I am not sure what Flickr.com is doing, however, my problem is their SEO - Search Engine Optimization. This site can easily be removed as a leader. They are either promoting themselves at the expense of their users, or just stupid.
The do not seem to be learning why Google.com is successful. The big thing is Google.com tries to first help their users first and take second, while I think Flickr.com take first and helps second.

January 24, 2007
WikiPedia.org is one of my choices for the Top 10 Travel Sites of 2006 in English, a year in Review. I have not chosen where in the list, yet I am sure it is in the Top Ten.
It was Number ONE for the Top 10 Travel Sites of 2005, and it has not lost much ground or status if any in the last year.
I wrote this about the site in my smaller explanation last year:
Facts and data, information is King.Wikipedia.org has entered the game, it is a reader edited and created Encyclopedia of information in many language and for everyone to use for free. I personally first use the Microsoft Encyclopedia installed on my computer first, then will by design go to the Wiki Encyclopedia online, however it is normal for me to see them in a top search results in Google.com. This is good, I do not have to hunt for them, they are trying to find me. The hit a home run when I discovered a well compiled and complete list of LCC - Low Cost Carriers - These are the cheapest of the cheap airlines, and NOT listed or sold normally by travel agents, you will not find these airlines in Orbitz, Travelocity or Expedia.com. However you will find them in the WIKI - Wikipedia.org
So, what do I think a year later?
I am doing this as one of them MORE things, to create a link whereby a person could read more. Therefore when I publish the year in review for 2006, they will go to this link.
A friend was giving me the test of my thoughts, she said, what is your criteria, why, what are the rules, what or how do you make the choices. She did not like my answer,
- It is my opinion. -
She gave me, told me a different opinion, on my opinion. But, she was saying you are a travel writer, I start to push and shove, saying I am not, but I started to think about her intention. She was saying, you are writing to tell somebody your choices, so by technical default, I am writing about travel and I cannot evade.
Ok, why do I like Wikipedia.org, well first, I do not have to go looking for them. They have designed one of the perfect SEO sites, the search engines like Google.com and Yahoo.com love them. IF and when I forget to go Wikipedia.org, then Wiki come to me, it is a search result in Google.com.
I have surfed around on some other sites, trying to find or discover what the experts have to say, I have not really found WikiPedia.org, however, I have found WikiTravel.com. Maybe some type of nebulous relative.
Who has time to figure out, not me, I have a room in an Internet cafe, it just does not work.
WikiPedia.org is on the destination label of travel, or sides up and annies up when you are trying to choose a destination. If I am planning a trip to Africa, I can get great insight into how and where to visit by going to WikiPedia.org.
Travel is not a Hotel, travel is about visiting countries, locations and destinations. I sometimes think people should just go down to the local 5 Star Hotel and take a week vacation, and forget to spend the cash to travel. If you don't leave the resort or hotel, then probably the best resorts are in the USA, no culture clash.
However, if you are going to leave the resort, then better get on WikiPedia.org and learn a little or a lot about where you are going.
Encyclopedia.... it is an online Encyclopedia. It is a tool to learn, and an extremely valuable one, probably the worlds most comprehensive and well managed and categorized place to learn.
Only the Internet has more...
What is wrong with the WikiPedia.org?
The do not send me a set of DVD 0r CD Rom so I can use in the Jungle. I so far need an Internet cafe to use. This is a want, not a need.
Note, if you call yourself the intellectual type, then if you want to be a player, you should be aware of WikiPedia.org.
Thank you to all the contributors of WikiPedia.org
I need to create some sub-categories and expand this list, because some of the readers do only care about Hotels and Airplanes.

Airfare Booking Site
(Note, I have never purchased a ticket on this site, but I use all the time.)
I am again trying to get a complete thought, I have just stumbled time after time on the idea of what is the Top Travel Sites of 2006 in the English language, and now I have added for Travelers, not Tourist
I am working on criteria, but I will get this done this week.
Ok, McFlight.de is a German site, however also in English, you can buy a ticket and Airplane ticket in English. However, you need to click on the small English link.
One of my criteria is easy to remember, and McFlight.de is easy, the de on the end stands for Deutschland the real name of Germany, in the German Language, I have no idea how or why they change names.
I want a guide, I want to know more or less, what a good price to pay for a plane ticket is, and then I can either buy from an agent, or hopefully go directly to the site recommended.
It is amazing the extreme difference between McFlight.de and the normal run of the mill USA search for plane tickets sites. One very large difference is you have two choices, you can search for available tickets or seats available, or you can search for just what prices are available.
Therefore, you need to learn both ways, what is available, and which flights have seats. I then do a search on the air carrier and try to buy direct online.
This is real; I want to buy a one-way air ticket from Delhi, India to Accra, Ghana on February 27, 2007. Note, a one-way ticket for half the price of a normal ticket is normally available anywhere in the world and the travel agents lie.
I did all these searches on the same day, and from Nepal, sometimes airlines block ticket purchases from some countries…!
I want to know two things, what are possible good prices and then second if a ticket is available. A ticket possible, and I can get on a waiting list, however the normal site does not tell you this, they only tell the high priced available, not what price is possible.
Travelocity.com Nothing
Cheaptickets.com Nothing
Orbitz.com Nothing
Kayak.com HAS, very good, however for 1338 US dollars, nice they gave in dollars. A good site, maybe ok in the USA.
Kayak.com - I gave the link because maybe a contender in ways.
Mcflight.de, about 500 Euros or 750 US dollars.
Ok, now the available seats are with Ethiopia Airlines, I could book, however I do not. I go to Ethiopia direct and see what is up.
I find in the end, I can fly with Ethiopia Airlines from Mumbai to Accra for about 450 US Dollars. Ethiopia Airlines.
I find I can use a Low Cost Carrier from Delhi to Mumbai for about 59 dollars.
I find I could have flown with an Agent Ticket from Chicago to Accra for 750 US dollars.
(If you know the good price, then an Agent purchased ticket is better, they will warn you hopefully about Visas, need of onward tickets, military coups and other fun things, we HOPE.)
I am getting a ticket for around 550 US, could have purchased on Mcflight.de for about 750 US, but need to check many times, as seats come available.
However, I like Mcflight, it give me a fair and target price to pay. I can then go to a travel agent, or online and keep trying. It is a great site; however, E Tickets are not always possible.
It does not search the Low Cost Carriers.
I use it all the time, and is in my Top Ten Sites of 2006, what position I am not sure. I am sort of dwelling on what is necessary. Is knowing about the location with Wikipedia.org more important, than buying a plane ticket?
To choose this site, I had to overcome my prejudices, thinking it is in German first, and not mainstream, and second how I use is complicated. I am saying to myself too difficult and the normal public is not smart enough. However, when it comes to the bottom line, I use this site, and forget what I think, the - What I use - test is more important than what I think or feel, or prejudge.
I try to post all my idea on this page:
Around The World Airfares

This is one of my Top 10 Travel Sites of 2006 pages, not sure of the priority or number. I am sussing out the criteria better this year and realized when I said, this list of for the true travelers and not for tourist; I knew this page must be included.
I think there are at least 312 x 312 needed pages to cover the Visa, Passport, Entry Visa, and Tourist Card and in the end, the question is, what do I need to do to get permission to enter a country.
97,344 combinations with a guess of 312 countries, enclaves, islands and autonomous regions.
Therefore, if you are from Ethiopia and you want to go to Chile, which is one combination question. The answers would change by the minute.
Now, Embassypages.com does not give that specific of help, but I think it is as close as I have seen on any site. It will tell you
Embassies in the country, as an example, maybe the USA, England, and Germany have an Embassy, Consulate, or something that issues visas, maybe in the country.
Embassies abroad or where does the USA have Embassies, which countries does Ethiopia have Embassies in?
This person that made the site, I think from Denmark, has an extreme capacity for detail and organization, just a remarkable collection of information.
A little hard to find, but nonetheless a true guru type site, a bookmark, write down, never forget the link address when you travel site.
Knowing all the rules of entering a country is not easy, a rule of thumb, if they let you on the plane, you probably have a good chance of entering… hehehe
At the border, as Stellan my Swede friend riding a bike around Africa said, if you wait long enough, they will let you in, change of shift, etc.
Contrary to anything you think, most countries want you to enter, and will find a way to allow you to enter.
I do encourage this person to make a PDA version of this or computer version so I can download and use when I do not have internet access.
As a note, most Travel Agents has some computer way to show you whether you can enter a country, but beware, travel agents have to me a 50/50 success rate. Either they lie, or they do not know how to use, so you need to get collaboration.
Three down, seven to go.

Reference - Planning - Facts and Data
This is one of my Top Travel Sites of 2006 in the English language and for travelers, not tourist. I suppose or would think the requirements of a traveler supersedes the requirements of a tourist so would encompass tourist.
I would be hard pressed in a way to say which site is really more valuable, Wikipedia.org or About.com.
I like facts, Wiki is more about facts, and data, while About.com is explaining. The big difference is About.com has some professionals they pay to answer questions. While Wiki has people that enter free information. Wiki does not push external links, therefore they are saying to me the public.
Stay on WIKI, you cannot leave.
While ABOUT.com say, here are are specially selected choice of best links chosen by a PRO.
WIKI can snub a PRO and is in many way, ANTI- anything big, so they would negate the value of Bill Gates... I was laughing, when I was at the WIKI convention in Frankfurt, it seems like most of the techies had Macs, the anti-PC anti-Microsoft solution.
Anti-Father solution
I just had a real life experience, I want to find out about Mobile Offices, or how to access the Internet from anywhere, any way I do it, it keeps leading me back to About.com.
Mobile Office on About.com
There is a different between having a professional keep the focus and limit the areas, it keeps me from accidentally getting off focus. Wiki is good for unfocused searches, however on focused idea, then about.com is better.
What is exceptional about, about.com is they will often recommend newsletters.
RSS Feeds are pretty much worthless when traveling, however a newsletter can be of valuable. I can read a newsletter without an Internet connection, while RSS seems to need an Internet connection.
The last thing I have is an Internet connection all the time, sounds good, but if you say you are a traveler and you always have an Internet connection, I am not sure I would call you a traveler, maybe a tourist or a 5 Star Hilton person.
Last time I was on the Amazon, it did not have WIFI, Internet, or probably even a cell phone connection.
I go CONGO River, how?
About.com is focused, then they are focused on who you are, are you as Student, are you a Tourist, are you a Traveler, are you someone, then they tell you About it!
So they talk and focus on the subject and tell you about the subject. There are subjects that are related to a something, and a person that is NOT a pro would never see the relationships.
A pro needs called in to say, yep, we covered all the possible related subjects. Wiki does a great job, I just cannot figure out how to find the PRO. With About.com I can go to a bio page and write the pro, and we can do a pay thing.
I use PRO stuff, I use a Guidebook, I use Travel Agents, I will pay for advice.
Wiki makes me nervous, you make them angry, and you could have a world of hurt if the Wiki wanna be Pros decided to attack. There are many true Pros is WIKI, however for the most part just average persons with some special knowledge they scraped from another site and paraphrased to get away from copyright infringements. Therefore, they took from the Pro and put on Wiki.
About.com give you the PRO version of Wiki, with a twist. This is a professional site and comes up easy in Google.com, and is very easy to remember how to spell so I can type into a browser when I do not have a bookmark.
Katmandu Nepal Asia
February 10, 2007
Talk to people in other countries, almost free, just the cost of the internet. I can call from anywhere to the USA for two cents US per minute.
This is one of my choices for Top Travel Sites of 2006, a year in review for sites in the English Language. A list of needed sites for travelers, not generally for tourist, however surely encompasses their needs.
Tourist because of only going on two to four week vacations normally do not have needs, more wants. The return ticket guarantees they are programmed and hard coded in their thinking.
Not a new idea, however finally one that works, seems to earn money and I hope stays in business. Now, they have competition from companies like yahoo.com, and the prices shall drop.
Talking to people from internet connection to internet connection is not a new idea.
Calling a person from the internet is not a new idea, there has been many. I sent what I labeled a Hot Tip.
ISSUE: 012b
DATE: July 17, 2000
TITLE: Andy's Travel Tips HOT TIP
There were two sites where I could call the USA and a landline free.
Dialpad.com USA
Hottelephone.com Europe, and USA
I clicked on Dialpad.com and it looks like yahoo.com purchased the site:
It also appears that Yahoo.com is cheaper than Skype.com.
Why I like Skype.com is because of a few reason, however the big reason is because they have made the words,
- Skype.com - well know, the internet cafes, the managers know these words.
They can point at a machine that has the program downloaded, and IF I am lucky it works. Skype.com requires many configurations, and everything needs to work perfect. There is no guarantee.
I would guess in ANY internet café, it would work about 10 percent of the time or less when the internet café are NOT offering Skype.com.
For the internet cafés that are offering Skype, I would say you have about a 50 - 50 chance, and better if you call in the early morning, not at 7:00 at night when every other person in the country is on the internet.
There are many problems, however this is a great service, and I can call the USA for 2 cents per minute.
I could talk all day about how to use Skype.com. I will write a tip about this in my newsletter eventually. I am leaning towards the idea of just the warnings.
Log off, or another person can call and you pay!
Yahoo.com has a good system, I am sure it would work, however the Skype.com is the trendy and regularly known system. On the internet the bigger the better is my method of choosing sites. I like big sites, that stay in business, function and I can somewhat depend on.
I remember, Dialpad.com stopped the free calls.
I hope that the computer-to-computer for free call or internet to internet will remain free. I hope, however the propensity for companies to offer dreams on the internet, then take them back is almost a standard. I almost never believe in free anymore.

The Lonely Planet Guidebook, one I use regularly, however I am going to use Roughguide for Africa this time in an attempt to find cheaper rooms has a Forum.
Lonely Planet Thorntree Forum
This is one of my choices, the FORUM, not the Lonely Planet general site, for Top Travel Sites of 2006 in the English Language, a year in review, for travelers, not tourist.
A Forum is an Internet toy, where by a person can post a question, and get an answer. The Lonely Planet forum takes some work, you need to sign up, get a password, learn how it works, etc.
Something best done at home with a free connection…
The keep bumping me out of this, as I do not get online, I do not know why I have to keep registering.
Oh, well, the bottom line for a TRAVELER, and I would almost say a tourist should not use this Forum. The problem is there are many Hotels, Travel Agents, and people hanging around in this site trying indirectly soliciting clients. They pretend they are a person posting and recommend themselves.
However, IF you wished to go to the Congo, or Iraq, or some place where the Lonely Planet paper version of the guidebook is not much value. With a lot of time, with a lot of patience and planning way ahead, you can get some answers. Not normally good answers, but a GUIDE, not an answer. Some ideas that can steer you towards the correct answers, it is your choice; I do not recommend you just trust people on this Forum, it is just help.
I have many bad answers, they told me the border or Silopi, Turkey was absolutely closed when I entered Iraq, it was not, and I did not believe and found the correct answer.
I posted here on December 26, of 2006 and it is now February 11 of 2007. I think these posts disappear over time, I am not positive.
Congo River Post
Nonetheless, this is a great way to find some ideas.
Unless, like some people, and they get addicted, and they sit around monitoring and posting you need to subscribe to the post you wish to monitor. Then in a very good way, Lonely Planet sends you the new ideas by email, this works great.
Therefore, this is how I use this Forum, I will post and idea or find the same question.
Subscribe to the post, and then wait and hope.
Sometimes I go and clarify, or ask again in different ways, I am extremely careful, this is just somebody on the Internet that thinks they know the answer, which does not even mean they have been to the place. It is similar to the Wiki people; they go out collect answers, and then go post from other websites. Look and read, are they extremely specific, a good person will say they did this on this date, at this city, went to this hotel. The person that is honest will say both good and bad, if the whole answer is good, beware.
I want to say - Caveat Emptor, but this is NOT a purchase thing, however, if you are on the main Lonely Planet part, then this applies.
Caveat Emptor
I want to say,
- Reader Beware -
Post a comment.. please?
The Internet is full of person without a life, who spends too much time floating around trying to appear as experts. I write ideas, I post them, and I make tons of errors. I would love to know a way to tell a person and they believe me, this is just my opinions, take it or leave it.
I am writing in my online, I am not trying to be an answer to all questions; I am just giving some ideas and guides. I am sure there are better answers.
However, there is something about the written word, people believe Newspapers, and the TV, they are in my opinion becoming on par with Car Salesmen, Taxi Drivers etc.
The internet is not to be trusted, it is to be used as a guide, the world if full of unscrupulous people who will tell you anything for a buck or in a ridiculous vain to appear intelligent.
Nevertheless, if you are going to Iraq, going to the Congo, or way off the beaten path, then I recommend you get on the Lonely Planet Thorntree and post some questions. Then make your own choices, engage brain.
china-marbles.info has my version of a lopsided Forum, it is a way for me to keep ideas organized. We are now calling it the Help Center. The idea is you ask me a question and someday, not today, maybe tomorrow, maybe never I will answer or say, I do not know, or give you a link.
What I want is a place where very specific questions a Q and A exist on many subject, then I can go and see if my answers are there. This is Hobo attempt to stay better organized, therefore, a real traveler can find the information quicker without having to hang around and check the site. I do not want a traveler to have to get on my site daily to find answers. We have a three click policy, we want you to get to your idea in three clicks and leave. This is our hope, not what is reality now, but we hope.
Hobo Members save 1000's of dollars by joining HoboTraveler and asking pro travelers questions on the Hobo Talk Wall.

Today we're celebrating the first annual World Wildlife Day. Proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly as an occasion to celebrate and raise awareness of the world's wild fauna and flora, the date was chosen to coincide with the day that the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) was first adopted. UNEP-WCMC is proud to support this Convention – and much of our work promotes its implementation.
CITES is an international agreement between governments which aims to ensure that international trade in animals and plants does not threaten the survival of species in the wild. UNEP-WCMC provides a range of knowledge management and analytical services that support the effective implementation of the Convention by the 180 Parties to CITES.
UNEP-WCMC manages two major resources that help national governments to implement CITES. The Checklist of CITES Species, launched in October 2013, provides the official list of all species included in the CITES Appendices in an online format that is easily accessible. Parties to CITES can use this information when issuing permits for international trade. The Checklist's sister website, Species+ provides information on the current listing of species in multilateral environmental agreements, including CITES and the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS), as well as those listed in the EU Wildlife Trade Regulations. It also provides information on taxonomy, distribution and common names, and any trade restrictions in place.
By making information on CITES-listed species readily available, Species+ and the Checklist of CITES Species help improve CITES' effectiveness in ensuring that international trade in wildlife is sustainable.
To promote effective monitoring of trade in CITES-listed species, UNEP-WCMC also manages the CITES Trade Database on behalf of the CITES Secretariat. Each year, every country that is party to CITES produces an annual report that details all international trade in CITES-listed species. These data are entered into the CITES Trade Database and can be searched on-line. Over one million records of trade were entered into the CITES Trade Database in 2013 alone, providing a unique and valuable resource for monitoring the use of wild fauna and flora.
UNEP-WCMC is starting to explore the substantial CITES trade dataset more fully, using novel methodologies to investigate the impacts of trade-related decisions by CITES Parties on trade patterns and ultimately on wildlife conservation and livelihoods. Future work aims to explore how the data can be used as an indicator of change within ecosystems and to develop tools and resources that contribute to the sustainable management of wildlife. We also have plans to upgrade the CITES Trade Database in order to improve its usability and would welcome feedback from CITES Parties on new features that would support their efforts to implement CITES.
We are grateful to CITES, CMS, UNEP, The European Union, the UK-based charity WCMC and the many data providers for making Species+ and the Checklist of CITES Species possible.

Never having used Emdebian, I can only give some Debian answers and they'll hopefully be usable. For filesystem UUIDs, I wouldn't use "GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID="true"". I'd change the new flash card's UUIDs with tune2fs and mkswap to match the copied/cloned "/etc/fstab". For NIC MAC addresses, you have to delete "/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" and it'll be recreated with a reboot or with "echo add > /sys/class/net/eth0/uevent". If your original has a fixed IP address, ... You can also change the hostname but you don't need to do so.

Well, it is that time of year again. My kids are off to school, and I am excited to begin writing a brand new book. I will be creating the book through this blog, and you will have free access to all of it's content here. This book/blog series is called Seven Habits of Highly Effective Readers and will give you information on what you can do to create an avid reader.
Before a scientist ever begins an experiment he always makes a hypothesis. This means that he makes an educated guess about what the outcome is going to be. Why is this? Well it drives the whole experiment. It motivates the scientist to start the experiment and continues to motivate the scientist throughout as he is able to determine how accurate he was. Throughout the experiment the scientist continues to come back to that hypothesis and decide if he wants to keep it, or change it. When he sees how his hypothesis is being validified he becomes excited and as he sees how it is different from his original thinking he is intrigued even more.
Highly effective readers do the same exact thing, but in reading it is called a prediction. These readers make these predictions because it motivates them to validify if what they predicted is true and it intrigues them when it veers off from what they think is true.
Predictions also get the reader's mind to become engaged with the text she is going to read right off the bat. In order to make a prediction a reader usually looks at
1. The title
2. The cover picture
3. The table of contents
4. The book summary on the front flap, back flap or the back cover.
After using all of this information the reader makes a prediction about what the story is going to be about. I have witnessed many readers who go into this process without making a prediction, and they also struggle with reading. When you ask them what they think it will be about, they respond with, "I don't know." These readers need more guidance in how to make a prediction. Using the list above you can begin to model the things that go through your mind as you see the them.
I will give an example of what that modeling would look like with the book Monster by Walter Dean Myers. The front of the cover shows a young boy that is in jail. I can tell that he is in jail because if you look at the back of the cover they show a side profile with numbers on the bottom. Based just off of this cover and the title I can make a prediction that this book is going to be about a young man that is going to jail for a crime that he possibly committed, and he is seen as a monster because of what he did. This is a good enough prediction for this time. As the story proceeds I will continue to make more predictions about the book and see if they come true as well. This makes the reading more exciting, especially when the predictions are true.
Another place highly effective readers make predictions is before they begin to read a chapter. This is a natural place to begin to think about what is going to happen next and to back up why they believe it is going to happen. This is a continual process throughout reading the book.
Sometimes authors leave off the ending of a book, then the reader is left to determine what happens next. Some people enjoy this and others do not. Whichever your take happens to be, you can use this to get the reader talking about what their prediction would be. Who knows, maybe the author will write another story and the child's prediction will come true.
Do you find it exciting when your predictions come true when you are reading a book and intrigued when they don't? I would love to hear what you have to say about making predictions.

Small World For Ellen Pompeo, Chris IverySteve Marsi at . Comments
This tidbit isn't new. In fact, it was reported by USA Today over a year ago. But it was new to the Insider, and we thought we would share it with you, because it offers some insight into Ellen Pompeo's background, along with her perspective on life.
Over a patio dinner of filet mignon and Alaskan halibut in L.A., Pompeo, the Grey's Anatomy star, chatted up producer Billy Gerber, who recently filmed the big-screen Dukes of Hazzard remake.
For instance, when she first met her boyfriend of several years, music producer Chris Ivery (right) at a grocery store, she was more focused on food than romance.
But two days later, they met again, started dating, and discovered they grew up 10 miles from each other -- and that Ivery knew Pompeo's father.
Ellen hails from Everett, Massachusetts, just north of Boston.
Another coincidence? The Hollywood home she and Ivery rent (or at least rented at the time this article was first published) is just 10 doors down from her Grey's Anatomy true love, Patrick Dempsey. Ivery and Dempsey like to race scooters together down their street.
"It's a very small world," Pompeo said.
Steve Marsi is the Managing Editor of TV Fanatic. Follow him on Google+ or email him here.

Hi Everyone
I just bought a parent fed cockatiel and I'm trying to tame him. He's a little scared of me and I can't get close but I'm reading and speaking to him through the cage. Often he's okay and just sits and listens... sometimes his eyes even flutter and he closes them like its soothing. Sometimes though when I talk to him he climbs down from his perch and sits in the corner at the bottom of the cage, I'm just wondering if I should stop and give him space when he does this or carry on reading and speaking? He doesn't make a fuss or try to fly but I'm worried he gets overwhelmed and is trying to hide from me and if I carry on being in his space when he's afraid I'm just making it worse instead of getting closer to taming him.

It's no secret that Amy Belle Isle from Stem Parties is a creative genius when it comes to celebrating! I'm so excited (or maybe I should say "stoked") to share her latest baby shower creation with you… it's so much fun! Keep reading for lots of images and all the details, as told by Amy herself…
"I am really excited that Jenn asked me to share this Pretty In Pink baby shower with all of her readers. This shower was such a joy for me to do since I am not only a child of the 80s but because it was also for a very dear friend of mine that I've known since Jr. High.
Since Kacie's favorite movie back then was Pretty in Pink and she was having a girl, it was a given what the theme would be. The trick was combining the movie and the era with a baby shower and make it all work. Okay, the trick was really making the 80s seem anything but tacky neon!
I decided to really play up the pink and add in different touches from the 80s along with a few baby related items. Remember, baby showers don't have to scream "BABY" to work. Subtle works, too!
Guests were treated to homemade box lunches with cassette tapes tied on top with pink and white ribbons. I bought a lot sale of 50 cassettes from an eBay seller for $10 and painted them all different shades of pink. Be patient, it takes several coats of paint to cover these babies! Boxes were from The Container Store and the Pretty In Pink label of front is easy to make with these round labels from Paper Source.
The pink linens were set off with old albums covered with round pink labels custom worded for the occasion, table "runners" made from photocopies tiled with the Pretty In Pink movie cover, simple floral arrangements and pink pacifiers.
Two tables had pregnant wire forms from tmarco encased between two acrylic box frames filled with pacifiers, while another table had this larger version of the wire form center stage.
You can't have an 80s shower without balloons, can you? Approximately 150 various shades of pink balloons not only provide the backdrop to the room but also filled the alcove ceiling (not shown…sorry).
Taking a cue from the fabulous Amy Atlas, I recreated a pink dessert table with sweets from several local bakeries in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Paper hanging daisies in the background from Luna Bazaar really set this area off. And, you can't really have a Pretty in Pink party without Duckie. The fact that I found pink ones just about did me in. Oh sweet fate.
More sweet treats were found at the hot beverage station on the butler's pantry. It's amazing how much bang you can get for your buck with some simple hot chocolate, coffee and tea if you present it with yummy toppings and fun Irish Coffee mugs!
In addition to playing a baby related trivia game with some 80s questions thrown in, I asked guests (in the invitations) to bring a picture of themselves from the 80s. Each guest was given various pink scrapbook pages to fill with their pictures and words of advice/encouragement for Kacie. The pictures provided a good laugh and the sweet words from all the guests made for a very special keepsake.
Thanks again, Jenn, for asking me to share this with everyone and Congratulations to Kacie (and baby Grayson Laine born February 9th). You're going to be a totally RAD mother. Fer sure."
Thank, Amy! I'm inspired to throw a party based on an 80's movie myself now – what other good ones could we do? Maybe a Some Kind of Wonderful bridal shower or a funny Princess Bride inspired engagement party/couples shower. Hmmm….

Few names in the lore of Western gunmen are as recognizable. As a young man, Ringo became embroiled in the blood feud turbulence of post-Reconstruction Texas. The Mason County "Hoo Doo" War in Texas began as a war over range rights, but it swiftly deteriorated into blood vengeance and spiraled out of control as the body count rose. In this charnel house, Ringo gained a reputation as a dangerous gunfighter and man killer. The reputation he earned in Texas, further inflated by his willingness to shoot it out with Victorio's raiders during a deadly confrontation in New Mexico, preceded him to Tombstone in territorial Arizona.
Ringo became immersed in the area's partisan politics and factionalized violence. A champion of the largely Democratic ranchers, Ringo would become known as a leader of one of these elements, the Cowboys. He ran at bloody, tragic odds with the Earp brothers and Doc Holliday, finally being part of the posse that hounded these fugitives from Arizona. In the end, Ringo died mysteriously in the Arizona desert - his death welcomed by some, mourned by others, and wrongly claimed by a few.
©2008 David Johnson (P)2015 Redwood Audiobooks
"Historian Dave Johnson sets aside the legends and myths to present here the most complete biography of Ringo to date.'" (Chuck Parsons, author of John B. Armstrong, Texas Ranger and Pioneer Rancher)
"A dogged researcher and rigorous historian, David Johnson sure-handedly brings to light new truths and lays to rest old falsehoods about this misunderstood gunman's life and death."(Scott Zesch, author of The Captured, winner of the TCU Texas Book Award)

"Interesting topic, narration ruined the audiobook"
Yes, if they were interested in the history of the West
It is a little date heavy. Very factual, of course it is a non-fiction, but so many dates seemed to detract from the book for others traveling with me and listening to it in the car.
Very robotic sounding. Until I looked at the website I was thinking it might have actually been a machine reading it. I turned it off after a little while because it was boring.
No, it was boring.
I wish I would have purchased the book rather than the audiobook. The narrator was extremely robotic and made a point of "over pronouncing" the words.
The information in the book is interesting but the narrator made it so boring the other passengers in the car asked me to turn it off.
While I would recommend the book itself, I would definitely not recommend it as an audiobook due to the narrator. I've listened to a number of non-fiction audiobooks and this is the only one that I felt was not worth the money. If it was free I still wouldn't listen to it and I definitely wish I hadn't purchased it.

Arab Banking Corporation announces seven percent operating income increase in 2001
Bahrain-based Arab Banking Corporation (ABC) announced a seven percent increase in its 2001 operating profit to $762 million compared to 2000. The bank's net profit reached $102 million for 2001, stated a bank release. ABC's Board of Directors recommended a dividend payment to shareholders of seven percent, amounting $.70 per share, the same as in the previous year.
ABC Group's net interest income improved by eight percent reaching $469 million compared to $433 million in 2000, with the beneficial impact from a globally falling interest rate environment led by the US dollar. Non-interest income increased by five percent to $293 million compared to $280 million in 2000, largely from increased revenues from treasury activities such as derivatives and foreign exchange across the Group.
Total ABC Group assets declined slightly to $26.5 million compared to $26.6 million in 2000, reflecting the controls over asset growth that were imposed in response to the economic deterioration that occurred during the second half of 2001. Loan assets grew by only one percent, to $14.2 million and marketable securities by six percent to $3.9 million, while placements with other banks declined by nine percent to $6.4 million.
Established in 1980, ABC is the parent company of the Arab Banking Group. The bank was incorporated as a Bahrain joint stock company and was issued an offshore banking unit license by the Bahrain Monetary Agency in the same year. The three original shareholders were the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, Kuwait's Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Libya.
The ABC Group focuses principally on wholesale commercial and corporate banking and trade finance services. Its subsidiaries concentrate largely on exploiting opportunities in domestic retail and merchant banking sectors. Branch offices of ABC are situated in Grand Cayman, Milan, New York, Singapore and Tunis. — (menareport.com)

The Hip in Athletes The hip joint is a very stable joint and is less often injured than the knee or shoulder. However, when it is injured, playing through the pain can be very difficult and often not advisable. The most common cause of hip problems in the athlete is called femoral-acetabular impingement or FAI. FAI is caused by a mismatch in the ball and socket so that when the hip is moved the ball runs into the socket and the structures in between can be pinched. This leads to tearing of the labrum (seal around the outside of the socket) and damage to the cartilage in the ball and socket joint. Dr. Petre is one of the few fellowship trained hip surgeons in the mid-atlantic region who performs repairs or reconstructs the acetabular labrum arthroscopically. Other common injuries include strains or tears to the muscles and tendons around the joint, bursitis, and arthritis. There are many reasons for having hip and groin pain (see table), the most important first step is to determine why your hip hurts.
Hip arthroscopy is a new minimally invasive technique for the reconstruction of the injured hip joint. Using specialized hip tools, many injuries can now be treated that were previously athletic career ending. For more information about a particular condition, please click below.

- Do Clean Teeth Protect Against Heart Disease?
Do Clean Teeth Protect Against Heart Disease?
April 19, 2012 -- NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Older adults who get thorough dental cleanings may be somewhat less likely to have a heart attack or stroke than their peers who are less careful about oral hygiene, a new study suggests.
The study, of nearly 22,000 Taiwanese adults age 50 and older, found that those who'd had a professional tooth "scaling" in the past year were less likely to suffer a heart attack or stroke over the next seven years.
Tooth scaling, sometimes called a deep cleaning, involves removing the "plaques" that can build up on the teeth and deep in tooth pockets within the gumline. Those plaques harbor bacteria that can lead to gum disease.
The new findings, reported in the American Journal of Medicine, do not prove that a good dental cleaning will cut your risk of heart problems.

The lower Stanislaus River has an extensive Park System that is well maintained and open to public use. Knights Ferry Recreation Area, the put in for rafting trips, is a sprawling park that includes multiple picnic table and BBQ sites, river access, extensive hiking trails, and access to the oldest covered bridge west of the Mississippi River! Knights Ferry Rec. Area also is home to the Army Corps of Engineers local museum that includes local history displays as well as that of local flora and fauna. A great place to spend an afternoon checking out relics from the gold rush or to just relax along the river!
Next in the park system is Horseshoe Park, another large park about 4 miles downstream of Knights Ferry. Access to this park is off of Orange Blossom Road. The park includes riverside picnic tables, options for overnight camping, and river boating access. Horseshoe Park is a popular place for recreational boaters and kayakers to have lunch, and during weekends because a busy spot for those looking to cool off, fish, or BBQ. Permits are needed for overnight camping and can be found through the Army Corps of Engineers at 209-881-3517.
Orange Blossom Park is a large grassy park that is free for the public to use and located just 5 minutes east of Oakdale, CA. The park is a common recreational boat use area, and is the location where many commercial rafting trips end. The park includes large group sites for picnicking and BBQing that can be reserved in advance. While this park is among the most beautiful on the Stanislaus River, parking is limited, so make sure you show up early on busy days in order to nab a spot!
Between Orange Blossom and Oakdale Recreation Area is a small river-access only campground called Valley Oak. This secluded site harbors multiple group sites and is perfect for groups looking for a more secluded camping experience right along the river. Restroom and BBQ access points are located within the park.
The next park in the Stanislaus River Park System is Oakdale Recreation Area. This park stretches along nearly a mile of the Stanislaus River, and is unique in that it also houses a number of small stocked ponds. Because of this most of the frequenters of the park are fishermen, as picnicking areas are few and far between. Another great place for river access, Oakdale Recreation area is a great place to end or begin a recreational trip on the Stanislaus River.
The town of Riverbank surrounds Jacob Meyers Park, another large grassy piece of property along the north bank of the river. Revamped in the last decade, the park houses a boat ramp and a large playground for kids. Picnic tables, BBQ pits, and drinking water fountains are all available to the public. The rustic zone of the park covers over 40 acres and includes a mile-long walking/biking loop as well as a group campground.
At the end of the beautiful Stanislaus River Park system is McHenry Recreation Area on the northern end of Modesto. This rec. area contains multiple trails along the river, as well as some secluded camping sites that can be reserved. Picnic areas are dispersed throughout the park as well. In the busy summer months this park gets impacted as well, so early arrival times are recommended.

Yeah, that's exactly how that post was meant to be interpreted. The whole chiefs news part had nothing to do with football.
And where did I say I was above it? I simply implied that the guys who tout themselves (you, I presume?) as research guys aren't people I tend to listen to.
I like talking about opinions because I enjoy talking about football rather than spending the same amount of time watching game tape and acting like an analyst so I can be right on a message board. If that's weird in your opinion, then so be it.

Can Glaucoma Be Reversed?
Diabetes CAN cause glaucoma
More Info: Diabetes is a disease affecting more than 16 million Americans and is a result of the body's inability to produce insulin. Diabetes can cause a myriad of complications, eye diseases being among them. Diabetes can cause cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma. High blood sugar can cause the lens of the eye to swell. If the fluid in the eye does not drain properly a buildup of pressure can occur known as intraocular pressure (IOP). Intraocular pressure can cause nerve and vessel damage in the eye which can cause loss of vision.

The high life
When Japanese architect Terunobu Fujimori is sitting in his treehouse, he feels like a space traveler from another planet 'taking a peek inside our world'. The main reason for this is that Takasugi-an ('an overly tall hermitage') is six meters off the ground and balanced on two tree trunks. From way up high he towers over all of his neighbors in Chino, Nagano Prefecture, and uses it as an escape from the world around him.
'When the house was completed and the scaffolding came off, I myself was kind of taken aback by the height,' says the architect, who is known for his avante-garde designs (another hut is featured above right). The treehouse, which sways in the wind, is made out of plywood and copper, and its interior is that of a minimalist teahouse (white walls, tatami mats). For those who suffer from vertigo, it may be good news to hear that the tree trunks are buried 1.5m in the ground, and set in concrete, so there's not much chance of Fujimori toppling to a shrubby demise. Unless there are beavers around… RM
