Joan & Matt's Joyously Eclectic Home
House Tour
Joan Hiller and
Matt LeMay
Location: Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York
Size: 550 square feet
Years lived in: 1 for Joan, 2 for Matt; Rented
We first met Joan when she was living in this stylish studio in Portland, so we already knew about her phenomenal sense of individuality and style. Knowing this, it's not surprising that upon moving to New York, she would meet and fall in love with someone whose creative energy parallels her own. Together Joan and Matt have put together a home filled with charm, personality and love.
Enter House Tour
With paintings by by Joan, and by family members, as well as spontaneous and fortuitous finds, the walls are like a gallery, filled with interesting pieces to take in. Their home has come together beautifully. Everything appears to have a story, like a grandfather's watch on display. All these elements come together to make Joan and Matt's home both stylish and romantic.
Enter House Tour
Apartment Therapy Survey:
Our Style: Matt and I are very fortunate to have styles that work together super-fantastically; before I moved in, this apartment was a sophisticated, sleek, minimal modern man pad — lots of design objects, tech gadgets, music gear, clean lines and shiny surfaces. Matt has amazing taste, and we both love looking at home stuff and design-y things. I moved in with tons of artwork, textiles, books, vases and objects, and together, we bought leather and overdyed rugs, plants, shelving and lots of clean-lined but textural wooden furniture pieces to warm the space up. Now, the combination is kind of a cozy future-rustic representation of our combined aesthetics. We are psyched about it and always feel so thankful and happy to come home. Matt has a fantastic eye for interiors. His other fantastic eye looks for snacks.
Inspiration: Emily Henderson. Grace Bonney. Junk shops. Designy catalogs.
Favorite Element: The art. Aside from being lucky enough to own work by Beth Hoeckel, Bruce Colin Paulson, Ashley Anthony, Derek Erdman, Michelle Muldrow, John Brodie, Luisa Matsushita (aka CSS' Lovefoxxx), David Greenberger, Kate Bingaman-Burt, Renee Hartig, Jennifer Charles, Mark Menjivar, Carson Ellis, Rachel Blumberg and my father, Mark Hiller, we have Matt's grandmother's bonkers paintings up (that's the double-unicorn in the living room, as well as what's on top of our fridge). We were also just gifted a gorgeous decades-old student-made peace poster from our dear family friend Liz Katz. Matt has a bunch of framed posters from shows he played with his last band, Get Him Eat Him — and he has some wonderful prints by David Byrne and Kim Krans. We also had canvas prints made of the first two Instagram photos Matt ever took — they were taken on his way to meet me at the foot of the Williamsburg Bridge for our first date.
[Matt's note: I am also mega-stoked to be the proud owner of several Joan Hiller originals. I've been a fan of Joan's work for a long time; in fact, I almost bought one of Joan's paintings long before we got together, but chickened out at the thought of cold emailing her. Several years later, I cannot even express how grateful I am to share a home with so much incredible art and such an incredible artist.]
Also of note: I want to make out with the neat-shaped greeny-blue tiles on the bathroom floor — they're hands-down the best tiles I have ever had the honor of living with. They look like vintage Heath tiles; no idea what they actually are, but they have been part of the apartment forever. There's also a gorgeous little marble threshold to the bathroom that I appreciate daily. The kitchen cabinets are also rad; they're some '70s fake walnut renaissance faire shit. The wood floors are also gorgeous and new.
Biggest Challenge: Our biggest challenges are the lack of a second bedroom (we'd love to have a dedicated work space for Matt's recording and my painting in the future), the low ceiling fan in the living room (we're both tall!) and the knowledge that having the BQE right outside our window is *not* good for our long-term health.
What Friends Say: "HELLO! WE ARE IN YOUR HOUSE!"
Biggest Embarrassment: We are individually and collectively really bad about letting laundry build up in a crazy way. It's always in its Official Dirty Laundry Universe, but it gets BAD.
Proudest DIY: We were proud of ourselves after hanging all the art — we had a system! Matt measured, marked, nailed & hammered, and I mapped it out. It was also a bear to put together the shelving in the kitchen, but we did it! As this is a rental, we couldn't do any for reals built-in home improvement stuff, but we are excited to in the future. Chair rails! Floating shelving units! Crown molding!
Biggest Indulgence: For Matt, probably the incredible speaker/audio setup in the living room. For me, having fresh flowers in the house as often as possible. Sounds like a dickhead thing to say, but it makes such a huge energetic difference.
Best Advice: Surround yourself with things you love, and clean up after yourself constantly and immediately. You want to come home and think OH GOD I AM HOME; HOORAY.
Dream Sources: I still cream myself when I think about the Anglepoise Giant 1227 floor lamp, which is a ridiculous $3,600 ultra-huge thing shaped like a desk lamp that is just Earth's Most Perfect Object. You would have to style your room super-carefully in order to not make it seem like you were living at FAO Schwarz or something. Also, everything Kelly Wearstler does is incredible. I also want to buy everything Emily Henderson sells in her One Kings Lane sales, especially all the amazing brass stuff. YES TO BRASS.
Enter House Tour
Resources of Note:
White—no wallpaper is allowed in our rental, and no painting is allowed unless we paint it back before moving out. I'm a huge fan of charcoal and/or navy walls and/or bold-patterned wallpaper, all of which is a bitch to transform back into standard rental white, so this time it doesn't make sense. In the future, though, paint shall be blasted all over everywhere!

Hi fellow Williamsburg neighbor. :)
Even though you didn't want to paint the walls just yet, the way you displayed your art makes the walls colorful to me. Very cute place.
Love it. But it seems like you need a table with leaves for entertaining. Who is the third chair for? Your sad single friend? At least make it four!
I love the watch under glass. I'm assuming it's a family remembrance. It's a great idea. Also I am thrilled to meet a young Joan who is hip and cool.
This apartment reflects the huge personalities and creative senses of the occupants and I wonder if 550 square feet will be enough to contain them. I realize I am sounding more and more like my mother every day but some of the language in the interview was too informal for the public arena. I'll shuffle off to join the other old folks now.
I agree, lynnindc! And I'm in D.C., so we can play shuffleboard later.
Maybe Maxwell should re-post the sex furniture ...
I'm with JMarsh, the watch in a shadowbox frame is genius. I have my grandfather's watch and this would be a phenomenal way to solve not wearing it... but also not keeping it in a drawer. Thanks Joan and Matt for that!
That interview was really full of personality! The comment about the Anglepoise lamp was hilarious. Crass? Sure, but hilarious. You really know get to know their sense of humor.
Nice floors. Feels a bit discordant or something, the fung shei is off? The energy just stops, instead of moving around..
LOVE how the guitars are displayed behind the couch! What a great idea!!! Is that an actual guitar rack or something else?
I have a lot of art too but . . . I prefer more white wall space so some things are in the closet and then when I change things . . . it's like I have a whole new space. Kudos for having so many things in such as small space but your space does not in any fashion show me a sense of peace and quiet which is my definition of what home should be. You can keep Emily Henderson and her over-done designer look. I prefer more minimal surroundings and I hate brass. Last update in my house: getting all the door handles AND hinges changed from brass to brushed nickle.
GAH. My apartment is also 550 square feet - split over 2 floors. It pains me how much bigger this apartment looks/seems/feels than mine does (although my bedroom is much bigger).
you had me at henry darger...http://www.folkartmuseum.org/darger
Yay, Joan, I love your new place! Good job lady.
I like the art very much,and theyve done a great job of showing both their personalities.But Im with other posters,I didnt care for the language.I work with the public and it saddens me how very much cursing and sexual references are part of everyday conversation now.
Agreed. But then I'm a 40 y.o fogey
"His other fantastic eye looks for snacks."
Seriously, the funniest thing I've seen on AT maybe ever.
I like this tour, mostly for all the amazing art and the hilarious interview. (I sometimes find the interviews a bit boring or worse, pretentious, so this was a nice change imo.)
I'll give you $1,000 for the Accept The Mystery wall art.
Love the guitars behind the couch!
I can't with the giant calendar above the bed. I see those and immediately start to panic... not romantic, not calming.
I love this post. I love the language. I love the sense of humor. I just moved in to an apartment with my boyfriend and am overwhelmed with boxes. I thought I had minimalized with a giant garage sale and donations. Still.... so much.....stuff. I am inspired and motivated. Thanks you awesome couple. I love the advice in this post or was it in Joan's previous post about stuff and if it's not a yes it's a no. Hell to the yeah!
i love the place and i love that the bathroom is super funky yet, not totally done up/redone... You've made a wonderfully warm and creative space out of your apartment!
This is one cool pad. ;)
The "Oh, hi" sign in pic #5 made me laugh. Reminds me of LOLCATS.
However I don't understand why people want to live in cities that are so expensive they have to live in 550 sq. ft. But I'm just an old person living in Canadian flyover country.
Fantastic apartment! I love Joan & Matt's sense of style and joie de vivre. Beautiful placement of art, books, stones & guitars. I love the humor and their interview cracked me up. But what is up with people complaining about "the language?" It saddens me that folks about a decade younger than me are calling themselves "an old fogey." Perhaps we all should get ourselves an Angelpoise lamp, make out with beautiful bathroom tile and look for fantastic snacks, if it makes us look as in love as this couple does. Rock on with your Brass selves!
don't knock the "sad" single friend! maybe they *like* being single. hmpf
I love the art above and around the TV! At first, I didn't even notice there was a TV over there! Great apartment + nice photos!
Love all the arts and rocks - definitely the house of collectors.
Maybe they want to have a small space or need to live there for work and don't want the long commute that comes from working in NY and living elsewhere. 550 square is small but that isn't always a bad thing. The city is expensive but some people would still choose to live in small spaces no matter where they were.
I too am old "old" fortiesh something and I loved the tour, both your stylin pad and your refreshing sense of humour. I think it's the first tour I've ever laughed out loud at.
Wisest words on Apt Therapy ever: "clean up after yourself constantly and immediately"
(This isn't quite my style but the apartment contained so much neat stuff (...and the couple seemed so cool) that it was hard to resist.)
I liked the "floss" sign in the bathroom!
The fact that she used the phrases "cream myself" and "a dickhead thing to say" I love her no matter what her decor looks like.
Great space. And I love all the stones and crystals too!
The floor tile in the bathroom is gorgeous. I love how beautifully curated their art collection is. Really well done. Also, I can't agree with @She Who Says Go! more. Great couple and tour!
I must show this post to my husband, we are always at odd over the guitars in the house. I love that you have the Fender Pawn Shop series Greta Amp on display. I have one as well and think it's the perfect form meets function piece for a musical home. So many lovely thing to see in your place, I will have to visit your pics again to see what else I can find.
Nice language. Intelligence and taste are overrated. Self-monitoring is soooo passé.
The first picture shows 4 chairs at the table, the next one 3 chairs and one only shows 2 chairs. I think they were moving them for the photography.
Thank you so much!! FWIW, I had the guitars hidden away in a corner of the bedroom, until Joan downed a 5 Hour Energy and moved them all into the living room. I was surprised at how well they worked as a design element!
I love this place. Matt, where is that TV stand from? I'm looking for something just like it.
House is bursting with personality and sparkle. Love the crystal/rock collection.
Thank you! The TV stand is a piece of office/school furniture: https://www.google.com/shopping/product/14064920079031246967
I loved the space before I saw the photos. I love this couple. And the space is great, too.
I would love to see more of the house but the house tours function drives me nuts! Is there a way to click through the photos without having to scroll down after each one? every time i click to the next photo it takes me back to the top of the page.
I like that they managed to make the light green bathroom colors work rather than fighting against them.
Oh my gosh, where to start? I LOVE this place. All the artwork everywhere, that kitchen, the mirrors in the bathroom, so great. I also collect all kinds of rocks and I love the way you've displayed yours. The kitchen cabinets are most definitely rad and I'm glad that y'all appreciate them. I also agree that that is the most beautiful bathroom tile that I have ever seen.
These people shouldn't be allowed in public. However, their taste is unimpeachable.

Code of Practice - Flows & Loads 4 - Sizing Criteria, Treatment Capacity for Small Wastewater Treatment Systems
This revision to the established code of practice provides a table of loadings which allows the total daily sewage load from properties to be calculated. The main change in this edition is the reduction in per capita flow to 150 liters per day. It is recommended that all designers should use this table when sizing and designing non-mains sewage treatment systems. The flows and loads values given represent current best knowledge within the UK but may change with time in line with per capita water use. Guidance notes are provided to assist the user to consider the nature of the sewage being received for treatment and to identify the various sources of the sewage to contribute to the correct sizing and design of the treatment system.

Technical Guidance to Proprietary Sustainable Drainage Systems and Components
The revised guidance publication provides a brief and comprehensive introduction to sustainable drainage issues and highlights the four principle areas of proprietary SUDS solutions of Flow Control, Infiltration Storage/ Attenuation and Treatment. It is intended to complement the guidance that already exists on the wide range of natural SUDS solutions such as swales, ponds and infiltration trenches. This guidance is for all stakeholders including owners, developers, regulators, consultants, contractors and planners. This revised version provides electronic links to more detailed information including direct links to proprietary technologies and systems that are available from British Water members. It is not intended to be a detailed design document but to provide information about proprietary systems that are available in the toolbox of sustainable drainage solutions. When designing systems, selecting technologies and installing equipment sound engineering practice should always be followed.

FW on her trip to China:

i saw a cocker spaniel carrying this woman's water bottle for her
my plan to have trained whiskey puppies is half complete
"He is a man without weather, upon whom weather cannot act. Do not underestimate this. Not rained upon. Not gusted over, or snowed on, or blown over, or burned by the sun, hidden in fog, lost at sea, killed at work, crushed in a crowd, broken in a fall off a bridge, wounded by the words of his wife, smashed with a hammer, washed away in a flood, or ever struck by sticks flying loose in a storm. Everything that has ever happened above ground has been hellaciously awful."

a list of things that are good right now—
songs on repeat, chances with wolves archive, midnight happy hour and grilled cheeses on my stoop, novellas, lost on hulu, h moving in today, weekend theme song
The happiness that attends disaster.
The disappointment of sleeping with one's fantasy.
Intimations of mortality brought on by ageing family members.
The hatred of mirrors that begins in middle age.
The sadness inspired by failing restaurants.
The excitement of getting a room with a minibar.

Heartache Never Sounded So Good
Since Gas For Less first took the stage in 2007, they've been reminding audiences that Country music is more than the slick crossover exports of Nashville. In as unlikely a place as Detroit, among a sea of urban-outfitted indie bands, Ryan Racine is doing what he has been for nearly 20 years, writing original music rooted in 50s and 60s Americana—with infectious melodies and smart, accessible lyrics.
Although Racine's lyrics are often whiskey-drenched, self-deprecating odes to misery and loss, it's often tongue in cheek and played with such upbeat rhythms and cheerful melodies that it reminds you that music is still the best cure for a broken heart.
The band's sound is covertly complex. Undeniably Bakersfield (Bourbon-gold vocals, biting Telecasters, and high lonesome harmonies) though a closer listen reveals deeper influences. It pays considerable homage to 60s Country but manages to avoid the retro-gimmick pitfalls that many "rockabilly" acts encounter and reveals the less expected influence of acts ranging from Social Distortion to Tom Petty, the Monkees, and Neil Diamond.
Ryan Racine first made a name for himself as the front man of Ann Arbor's rockabilly outfit Lucky Haskins. Formed when he was only 15, the band burst onto the metro Detroit rockabilly scene and quickly garnered attention and a loyal fan base. Besides introducing the genre to a whole new generation in the area, they earned spots opening for legends like Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, and Lee Rocker as well as a slot in the 1995 Detroit Music Awards.
Post Lucky Haskins, Ryan continued to wow crowds as a guitarist/sideman for country outfits like Los Diablos and KC Groves. He was also a founding member of the popular Irish-punk group Mogue Doyle, which shared the stage with Flogging Molly and Shane MacGowan.
Ryan Racine & Gas For Less have released two EPs to date (Low Life Volumes 1&2) that showcase their versatile "California by way of Detroit" Country. The band is sure to make Country fans take notice and non-Country fans think twice.
"Finally, old people like me will remember well the manic rockabilly energy of late-'90s shit-kickin' wunderkinds, Lucky Haskins…From the open-air classic country twang of "You and Me and Her Memory" to the claustrophobic, introspective chug of "Straight and Narrow," it's clear that Racine and company know what the fuck they're doing. Heads up!"
Chris Handyside-Metrotimes Detroit
"On stage, Racine's showmanship matches his musical skill. He croons through a sneered upper lip, dropping his chin to his chest and treating us to a perfect cowboy hat silhouette."
Charmie Gholson - Ann Arbor Observer
"This is full service "premium grade" honky-tonk for drinking and dancing."
Roger Lelievre –Mlive.com

Is it just a scary dream or are little girls' Halloween costumes getting skimpier and boys' outfits getting scarier?
A maid costume used to be for adults now it's sold for little girls, along with cutie cat and playful kitten.
For boys there's a pimp costume. The Joker comes in toddler sizes along with all kinds of masked dark characters.
Walmart yanked its naughty leopard costume in size 3T and 4T after parents complained it was sexualizing children. The costume itself was pretty tame but the naughty moniker may have caused the uproar. Walmart apologized.
From Rocky to the Walking Dead don't be surprised if trick or treat gets a little bit creepier this year.

Oculuuuus! omg, my priest never did get that one on heroic. Groups just fell apart at the door if it was a random, and I just never thought to see how long it'd take to sit in queue to do that one specifically.
I'm enjoying the ability to get valor points, something I was never able to do before. Though if I never see heroic deadmines again, I can't say I'll be sad. I am happy that I've successfully completed each heroic at aleast once. The only place that has gear for me is ZA, a nice shoulder item that never drops when I'm in there.. there were bracers but in trying to get those bracers I was able to purchase the valor ones instead.
I like the idea of a goodie bag at the end, since I'll never be eligable for the goodie bag for healers and tanks. Of course, people would still complain about it.

From longislandpostcards via astoriaugly, who says:
Elm Street, Corner Crescent Street, Astoria, Queens (AKA 30th Drive).
Kind of breaks your heart to see what it looks like present day.
I wondered the same thing myself just last week! This is why I love Astoria Ugly.
So many questions. But the biggest: why is there a door? (See 2nd pic, central glass panel.)

I put in an Arts Council grant with the Australia Council so long ago that I'd forgotten about it. In order to be eligible for a grant as an emerging writing, you need to have 10 writing credits - short stories, articles etc. I thought I was well covered but I received a call from them the other day -- a lot of the articles I've written are considered 'lifestyle' so aren't counted. I had to come up with some other credits, quick smart.
I spend yesterday morning at work googling myself (which sounds so much dirtier than it is). I'm sure a whole heap of red flag sites came up on logs.
Anyway, I sent back an email with more details. I'm not sure if it's enough to get me over the line but I figure my chances of getting a grant are fairly remote anyway.
I've been reading a biography of Haruki Marakami lately. It's so the opposite of inspiring - more like a total freak out. Incredibly interesting though. The writer is one of his translators so lots of stuff about the actual translation process which I'm finding esp fascinating since I'm studying Japanese at the moment.

to be honest, this video goes beyond just being a tribute, it's a message - a wakeup call - to all volunteers out there.
do you remember what brought you here in the first place? are you still sticking to what you believe in - or have you ended up buying into what others have been selling to you desperately? do you dare to chase your own dreams, or do you get knocked into the bandwagon?
you can claim that everything you do is for the cadets - hell, i've heard that claim so damned many times. but do you, really? have you sacrificed so much for them that nothing they do can ever repay the favour?
i daresay i have - and the people that have been on the receiving end know it. they are the people i'm willing to sacrifice so much for - and have been sacrificing for the past 4 years. no recognition, no glory - only pure blood, sweat and tears. their sweet smiles, those happy tears, and the pride they carry - these are the testaments to what i've achieved. have you done the same?
are you willing to go against what you're told - and forge your own path? are you willing to forgo all that's glittery - and carve your own future? are you willing to sacrifice all of your personal dreams - and build your own legacy?
to lead with pride - have you?

TEAMS: Seattle Seahawks, Minnesota Vikings
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin should play Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, two weeks after sustaining a high ankle sprain, according to the Seattle Times. Baldwin was expected to take longer to heal, but practiced all week to the surprise of coach Pete Carroll on Friday. "You can't even explain it, but he pulled it off," Carroll said. "It would be great to see him play." Though Baldwin is likely returning to action, wide receiver Braylon Edwards is ruled out with a knee injury. He did not practice this week. Defensive tackle Jason Jones did not practice this week because of a sprained ankle and is ruled out. Defensive lineman Alan Branch should be back in time for Sunday's game after being absent from practice Friday due to a death in his family. Cornerback Walter Thurmond is eligible to be activated from the physically-unable-to-perform list but his status is uncertain. He has to be activated by Saturday to play on Sunday.

The medieval sermon provides the focus for the first volume of Disputatio because it often expresses the concerns of various intellectual milieux, such as the university, Church or court, and attempts to convey those concerns to other parts of medieval society. Speculum Sermonis is an anthology of essays about medieval sermons in the Christian East and West. It aims to reveal precisely how sermons inform different disciplines (for instance, social and Church history, literature, musicology) and how the methodologies of different disciplines inform sermons. Sermons can, for instance, provide evidence for a reconstruction of medieval liturgy; reciprocally, the field of liturgiology investigates sermons as one aspect of Church performance. The volume's title image of the mirror and the reference to medieval specula convey the idea of multiple reflections: the sermons' on culture and the disciplines' on sermons. Because the contributors to Speculum Sermonis come from a variety of fields, the essays here collectively provide a rich historical and contemporary academic context for reading the medieval sermon. In addition to essays from across the fields, a number of which establish conclusions transcending disciplinary boundaries, Speculum Sermonis includes an introduction defending interdisciplinary study of sermons and an authoritative bibliography covering both primary and secondary resources for medieval sermons. A unique feature of the volume is the inclusion of response papers to the essays in each of the sections, in the spirit of the book series title Disputatio.

Recipe was quick and easy to prepare. Really enjoyed the vinaigrette. I had an avocado on hand so I added slices of it to the salad. It was a great addition even though I know the avocado increased the calories.

I am going to write about El Dorado the lost city of gold not the movie or El Dorado Hills in California. What is El Dorado some may ask. Well I can tell you. El Dorado ( pronounced [el doˈɾaðo]English /ˌɛl dəˈrɑːdoʊ/; Spanish for "the gilded one") is the name of a Muisca tribal chief who covered himself with gold dust and as an initiation rite, dove into the Guatavita Lake. Later, it became the name of a legendary "Lost City of Gold" that fascinated explores since the days of the Spanish Conquistadors. No evidence for its existence has been found. Imagined as a place, El Dorado became a kingdom, an empire, and a city of this legendary golden king. In pursuit of legend, Francisco Orellana and Gonzalo Pizarro departed from Quito in 1541 in and expedition towards the Amazong Basin, ad a result of which Orellana became the first person known to have navigated the Amazon River along substantially its entire length. El Dorado is applied to a legendary story in which precious stones were found in fabulous abundance along with gold coins. The Concept of El Dorado underwent several transformations, and eventually accounts of the previous myth were also combined with those of the legendary city. The resulting El Dorado enticed European explorers for two centuries. Among the earliest stories was the one told by Diego de Ordaz's lieutenant Martinea, who claimed to have been rescued from shipwreck, conveyed inland, and entertained by "El Dorado" himself (1531). During the Klein-Venedig period in Venezuela (1528-1546) agents of the Welser banking family (which had received a concession from Charles I of Spain)launced repeated expeditions into the interior of the country in search of El Dorado. In 1540, Gonzalo Pizarro, the younger brother of Francisco Pizaro, was made the governor of the provenance of Quito in northern Ecuador. Shortly after taking lead in Quito, Gonzalo learned from many of the natives of a valley far to the east rich in both cinnamon and gold. He banded together 340 solidiers and about 4000 natives in 1541 and led them eastward down the Rio Coca and Eio Napo. Francisco de Orellana, Gonzalo's nephew, accompanied his uncle on this expedition. Gonzalo quit after many of the soliders and natives has died from hunger, disease, and periodic attacks by hostile natives. He ordered Orellana to continue downstream, whee he eventually made it to the Atlantic Ocean, discovering the Amazon (named Amazon because of a tribe of female warriors that attacked Orellana's men while on their voyage.) Other expeditions include that of Phlipp von Hutten (1541-1545) who led an exploring party from coro on the coast of Venezuela and of Gonazlo Jimenez de Qusada, the Governor of El Dorado, who started from Bogota (1569). Parime Lacus on a map by hessel Gerrosz (1625). Situated at the west coast of the lake, the so called city Manoa or El Dorado. Sir Walter Raleigh who resumed the search in 1595, described El Dorado as a city on Lake Parime far up the Orinoco River in Guyana. This city on the lake was marked on English and other maps until its existence was disproved by Alexander von Humboldt during his Latin-America expedition (1799-1804). In popular culture there is....
* The Road to El Dorado is a 2000 American animated comedy film by Dream Works Animation, which tells of two 16th century Spanish men who discovered the mythical city and are declared gods by the inhabitants. The story mistakenly takes place in Central America, not in Colombia.
*In Anthony Horowitz's novel Evil Star when protagonists Matthew Freeman and Richard Cole end up in the Incan city of Vilcabamba, Richard compares the vity to El Dorado, saying that Vilcabamba is a mythical city which hundreds of exploeers have sought for yet never found "a bit like El Dorado." He is amazed that and Matt are actually in the middle of Vilcabamba, thus being in the heart of a lost city.
* In the PlayStation 3 game Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, the game is based on a search for El Dorado and on its connections to Francis Drake. Expecting to find a city of gold, they find a huge gold statue, later discovered to be a golden coffin containing the victim and the remains of an ancient Plague.
* The Mysterious Cities of Gold an animated miniseries produced in the 1980s that follows the fictional story of several children and a group of Spanish explorers as they search for El Dorado in the Americas during the 16th century. In the story, El Dorado is but one of seven cities of gold hidden around the world.
* A portion of Volaire's Candied is set in El Dorado. There, the city is made of material finer than gold and diamonds, which are just considered mud and rocks in the road.
* Edgar Allan Poe wrote a rather satirical short poem entitled Eldrado, about a knight's search for the legendary city.
*In Zynga's game Indiana Jones Adventure World,Zynga included El Dorado as the main objective for the player to complete, giving references to the character of Indiana Jones in the game.
I hope that you enjoyed this post if you have any request then just ask and I will make a post for you. If you would like to read up more on El Dorado then you can go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Dorado and find tons of information there. As well as other peoples accounts and quotes from explores ect... so you can see a lot of information there.

The 2014 Lexus LX 570 blends the off-road pedigree of the legendary Land Cruiser with on-road comfort and manners befitting its luxury Lexus badge.
It's been a while since Panasonic updated its enthusiast compact line, and it comes back with a vengeance for the LX100
With the design improvements and addition of features such as 3G and GPS, the T-Mobile Sidekick LX 2009 graduates from a simple messaging handheld to a real connected, all-in-one communication device for the younger crowd.
The affordable Gateway LX6810-01 scores high points for offering high-end components right off the shelf. We recommend this system for multimedia editors and light gamers who can make use of its hard-working Nvidia 3D card and full 8GB of RAM. However, if you're looking more at straightforward performance, Dell offers a system with a faster CPU and a similar feature set for about the same price.
Pricing not available
The LG LX290 is a slider handset with a great design, simple features, and excellent call quality.
Pricing not available
The Sanyo Katana LX is a decent entry-level camera phone for its price range.
The company's high-end compact has an attractive but functional design.
LG's LX150 for Sprint fits the bill as a quality basic cell phone.

Though some people may be disappointed by the camera's still relatively small sensor, the fast lens is arguably a more important advantage.
The 2009 Honda Civic LX-S represents a good mix of efficiency and value with just a touch of fun, but those looking for tech options beyond the most basic level will want to look at the Civic EX and EX-L models.

We are no longer taking online registrations for this workshop.
An old Sioux saying affirms that "the longest journey you will make in your life is from your head to your heart." This workshop, based on Mark Nepo's new book of poems, Reduced to Joy, guides us on this journey.
All the world's spiritual traditions encourage us to live with an open heart. It is no easy task, given the suffering and injustice that surrounds us. But this is the journey before us all: to live well and love well, and to find each other.
Though stories, poems, metaphors, writing invitations, and group conversation, we explore the wisdom of a broken heart, the life of obstacles, and the nature of joy that waits us like a jewel in the folds of all our trouble.
"Like it or not, to live well and love well, we must work with what we're given till it wears us through to joy," Nepo says. "Like cliffs worn to their beauty by the pounding of the sea, if we can hold each other up, all that will be left will be wonder and joy. This is both a universal and personal journey."
A journal.
The Children's Program is generally available during standard workshop hours only. Contact Omega registration at 800.944.1001 for details.
The above schedule is subject to change at the discretion of the faculty
Mark Nepo is a poet and philosopher who has taught poetry and spirituality for more than 30 years. He is author of 13 books, including The Book of Awakening, which appeared on Oprah's list of favorite things, and The Exquisite Risk, which was cited by Spirituality & Health as "one of the best books on what it takes to live an authentic life."

An honors graduate of the Georgetown University Law Center, Professor Carrasco joined the faculty of the College of Law in 1990. While at Georgetown, he served as Articles Editor of the Georgetown Law Journal and received the Dean's Certificate of Recognition of Special and Outstanding Service to the Law Center Community plus the Lawyers Cooperative Publishing Company Award for Academic Excellence in Property. Upon completing his formal legal education, he entered into private practice with the Washington, DC, law firm of Arnold & Porter, specializing in international debt restructuring negotiations and related litigation, primarily on behalf of the governments of Brazil and Venezuela. He also represented the US-recognized Government of Panama in matters relating to the activities of General Manuel Noriega.
Professor Carrasco has traveled widely in South America, as well as in the Middle East and in Europe, and has published numerous articles on international negotiation, law and development, international finance, LatCrit Theory and Critical Race Theory. In 1999, he became the first academic globally to produce an interactive web site (www.uiowa.edu/ifdebook) on international finance and development designed for use by the layperson. Professor Carrasco is now the Director of The University of Iowa College of Law Center for International Finance and Development, which maintains the web site featuring an e-book of over 300 pages. Written by Professor Carrasco and a group of his students, the e-book explains the complex world of international finance and development in plain language. The site has received hundreds of thousands of "hits" from around the globe. Professor Carrasco currently teaches courses in public and private international finance, law and development in Latin America, and Contracts.
Professor Carrasco is advisor to the Latino Law Student Association, the Latino student group at the College of Law. His involvement with the Latino community at the law school is a reflection of his commitment to Latinos prior to coming to Iowa City. While at Arnold & Porter, Professor Carrasco successfully established a "mentor program" for first-year Latino law students in the Washington, DC, area. For this effort, he and his law firm received awards from the Hispanic Bar Association of D.C., Hispanic National Bar Association and the Association of Hispanic Law Students at American University's Washington College of Law.
Professor Carrasco is a member of the Bar of the District of Columbia, the International Law Section of the American Bar Association, the Latin American Studies Association, the Law and Society Association, the American Society of International Law, the Latin American Bar Association, and the Hispanic National Bar Association.
