Bowness hotel / inn
Lovely accommodation with clean and comfortable rooms.
Very friendly staff and excellent breakfast. We would definitely stay again. The rooms are not massive but for 2 people this was no problem. Beds extremely comfy. Great pub with draught ale and an open fire, plus pool table. Dogs welcome in the pub too . Right near the heart of Bowness but quiet enough out of season. We loved it .

The Friend Of The Court is not our Friend and that needs to change. The program needs to be re-evaluated, there system doesn't work and no one is there to over see the wrongs that are being done to good people that intend to pay support and take care of there children.
The FOC sent an order to my employer that i had to have insurance on my son, never once checking to see what the cost was. now i have to take a $522.00 dollar a month hit until they review my complaint that this is over 5% of my income. Now they are taking over $1100.00 a month from my check. This needs to stop and i would like to organize a group and see what our chances are to sue the FOC for the money they have taken from good people like us. And file to have the system changed and examined and have offices put in towns around Mi were they belong and not 1 office in Detroit.
They should also assign a case worker to your case, not the who ever answers the phone system they have now.
There formula that they use needs to be re-formulated. when my son lived with me there was at no time it cost me $500 a month, not even at school time. Also the over the counter drug charge is ridiculous there is no way that it should even exist.
If anyone is interested email me at (((ROR redacted))) but make sure you have proof of the system cheating you so then we can share the cost and find an attorney that will fight for us. THE VICTIMS OF FOC

World Bulletin / News Desk
Younger women who are thrust into menopause because of breast cancer treatment may get some relief from talk therapy and regular exercise, according to a study from the Netherlands.
Menopause symptoms such as hot flashes often come on gradually for women who go through natural menopause, as the body's production of hormones slowly dwindles. But that's not often the case for women diagnosed with breast cancer and treated with chemotherapy and other potent drugs.
"Oftentimes with women with breast cancer who experience treatment-induced menopause, the symptoms are much more severe than in natural menopause," said Neil Aaronson from The Netherlands Cancer Institute in Amsterdam, who worked on the study.
In addition, those women can't take replacement hormones to ease the symptoms, an effective but controversial treatment for menopause-related symptoms, since the hormones can put them at risk for a cancer recurrence.
For the study, which appeared in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, Aaronson and his colleagues randomly assigned 422 women with breast cancer and treatment-induced menopause to one of four groups.
One group went to six weekly therapy sessions, another consulted with physiotherapists and started tailored exercise programs, a third did both therapy and exercise and the final group was put on a waitlist.
The type of group treatment, known as cognitive behavioral therapy, included relaxation exercises and addressed symptoms as well as body image and sexuality issues.
Six months later, women in the talk therapy, exercise and combined groups reported an improvement in treatment-related symptoms, each gaining about five points on a 73-point scale compared to fewer than two points among waitlisters.
Women who'd had therapy also said they were bothered less by their hot flashes and night sweats, though they had them just as often.
"With the cognitive behavioral therapy, we were primarily targeting the subjective experience of the symptoms, and helping women to cope with the symptoms," Aaronson told Reuters Health.
For women who have been treated for breast cancer and have menopause-related symptoms, antidepressants and other medications may also offer some help. But by that point, Aaronson said, many women aren't interested in taking any more drugs or dealing with any more potential side effects.
He and his colleagues are working on translating the therapy sessions into an online program that people can do on their own time.
"More research is needed on behavioral interventions such as relaxation therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to understand more about how these things are helpful and for whom," said Debra Barton from the Mayo Clinic, who co-wrote an editorial accompanying the article.
"However, so far the data appear very promising."

Summer gas prices likely lower than 2012, Purdue economist says
May 24, 2013
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Consumers should enjoy a summer driving season without unusually high gasoline prices and probably lower than they were last summer, says a Purdue University agricultural economist.
Wally Tyner, who specializes in energy economics and policy, expects prices in the Midwest to be between $3.50 and $3.90 a gallon, with prices in the South and Southeast in the range of $3.15 to $3.55.
"That certainly could change if something unforeseen happens, but I don't expect prices over $4, except on the West Coast," he said.
Gas prices usually climb in the summer as motorists log more driving miles for vacations and weekend getaways, and fill their tanks with more expensive summer blend fuels. Those factors are being canceled out by increased oil production by non-Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries nations and the move to cars with greater fuel efficiency.
As a result, crude oil prices are projected to be slightly lower this summer than in 2012, Tyner said.
"We're increasing production much faster now, and production is growing faster than consumption for the first time since 2009," Tyner said. "That means OPEC countries - particularly Saudi Arabia - have spare capacity and aren't producing as much."
North America is leading the oil boom. Technology to produce oil from shale rock and bituminous sands has rejuvenated the U.S. and Canadian oil industries. The U.S. Department of the Interior estimates that 7.4 billion barrels of oil could be extracted from the Dakotas and Montana alone. Another 177 billion barrels of oil are available in Canada's oil sands, according to the World Energy Council.
Tyner expects little change in the price of renewable fuels this summer. Although ethanol production was down earlier because of high corn prices, plenty of ethanol should be available for blending with gasoline, Tyner said. The same goes for biodiesel, he added.
Two wild cards that temporarily could push gas prices higher are refinery outages and world events. Rapid spikes in Midwest gas prices the past few months have occurred when refining facilities in Indiana and Illinois experienced breakdowns.
"The biggest refinery in this area is in Whiting, Ind.," Tyner said. "They have four refining streams, and if one of those four goes out we see a shortage of supply in this area and prices spike. As soon as that stream comes back online the prices come back down again."
Crude oil prices and, therefore, gas prices also rise and fall with the world economy. If the economic growth outlook improves and demand climbs this summer, prices could follow, Tyner said.
One thing is for certain: There's no certainty when it comes to oil and gasoline markets.
"This year nothing has been typical," Tyner said. "Normally prices go down in January but instead went up. Normally they go up in March but instead went down."

How do you feel about superhero moves?
I'm not as excited with Spiderman anymore, despite Spidey being tied with Superman as my all time favorite superhero. I didn't like the reboot all that much (except for the web-swinging scenes), and I didn't even see the sequel (the first time I don't see a Spiderman movie on the big screen).
I *love* the X-Men franchise. I was never a Wolverine fan and I give FULL CREDIT to Hugh Jackman into making me a big fan of the character. In fact, I was never really all that into the X-Men growing up, but I loved Ian McKellan as Magneto, Patrick Stewart and the rest of the cast. I even liked the third X-Men, the Wolverine Origins, Wolverine, X-Men First Class, but this last one made me feel like some of the life has gone out. I hate to say that because it was well written, and I love the cast, but I feel some of the energy present in the first few is now gone.
Except for the Nolan Batman films, I have zero interest in anything DC related. Superman, my all time favorite with Spidey, has crashed and burned twice. They don't know what to do with him, and they're trying to make him something he's not. Two films in a row by two different filmmakers have been dreadful. My optimism for future Superman movies is GONE. Green Lantern was HORRIFIC.
To make matters worse, they got a decent show in Arrow on TV, but they don't want to use this guy in the movie? How does that make sense if you want to build your universe and compete with Marvel?
I think DC is just clearly going after The Avengers money but without the careful strategy Marvel has had for many years. They're rushing into it IMO.
Why do you say this to me? When you know I will kill you for it?

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
I'm a fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Like you said, they nailed it. Avengers has been my top superhero movie since its release. The first Amazing Spiderman was good but I didn't like the second that much. Maybe Sony will win me back with AS3 or the Sinister Six movie but my expectations are low for that one. Fox and X-Men have been on and off. I enjoyed the first and second X-Mens, the third lost me along with the first Wolverine movie, but I'm a fan again thanks to First Class, The Wolverine, and Days of Futures Past. I'm also looking forward to the Apocalypse movie.
As for DC, I pretty much gave up after Man of Steel. He didn't feel like the Superman I read growing up as a kid. The Dark Knight series was fine but everything else they made (post Christopher Reeve) just didn't do it for me and now they're giving the Batman role to Ben Affleck and even though he has his moments, he comes up short in a lot of his movies IMHO. With that said, I'm probably still going to see Justice League but my expectations are going to be low for that one too and if that bombs, I'll truly be done with DC.

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
The MCU is great, and I feel like the X-Men films are back on track with three good films in a row. Superman and Spider-Man...I'm gutted because those are my two guys and they're not getting treated properly. Supes-Bats will likely be more of the same, and unless there is a major shake-up on the Spidey production, I'm not confident about Mr. Parker's future.
I'm burned out on Batman, but I'm sure I'll dig him again eventually. I don't do DC comics any more, but I'll check out the films as long as they seem worthwhile.
The Turtles just got shit on cinematically and have a sequel on the way, so that sucks. The Nick show is much better, so I'm cool sticking with that.
Whenever someone says that there are too many comic book movies, that the bubble will burst any time now, I can't help but think that they don't realize it's a legit sub-genre now. Will sci-fi movies go away? Will romantic comedies? Sure, they might falter and thin out but I think they're here to stay. Of course, the western is all but dead, so what do I know?

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
Everybody knows DC/Warner got blindsided by Disney/Marvel and they're desperate to play catch up. I love it, because cause up till Iron Man it was usually the Marvel movies sucking hind tit.
My favorites were always Fantastic Four for Marvel and Green Lantern for DC, but the movies managed to butt-rape both concepts.
My demand for a superhero movie is that the movie people find ways to bring what I've seen in the comics directly to life on the screen. They're not always successful, but I love the ones that get it right.

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
So yeah there's that.
As for the movies themselves. I think Sony, Fox and Marvel studios have done a good job putting out quality entertainment. The problem I have though is the Marvel characters are owned by separate studios who are inflexible to the idea of uniting these properties.

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
And it isn't a recent thing either.
They kept going back and forth on a fifth Superman movie FOR YEARS.
When Christopher Reeve uttered his last line ever as Superman, it was to Lex Luthor at the end of Superman IV, and it was strangely prophetic:
"See you in 20."
That was in 1987. The next Superman film didn't come out until 2006.
Then they ran Batman into the ground (which was fine by me because we then got the Nolan films which were better than anything Tim Burton did)
So WB has been slow to catch onto quality superhero films.
In 40 years of superhero movie making, all WB has accomplished that was any good were the first few Christopher Reeve Superman movies from the 70s and early 80s. The first two Burton Batman films (which are debatable) and the Nolan Bat films.
That's 8 movies in 40 years. Marvel has that many great superhero films in the last 5 or 6.
WB has the line up going now, but they're off to a VERY precarious start. Not only did Green Lantern flop creatively and financially, Superman Returns was also a disappointment and Man of Steel had decidedly mixed reviews at the polar extremes, with fans and critics being very divided.
So they've done TWO Superman movies in a row that were not enthusiastically embraced by the masses.
Batman vs. Superman, to me, is damage control. They don't want the embarrassment of rebooting Superman three times in less than 10 years, so Superman is taking a backseat in his own sequel so that "Batman" can save the day. It's a smart move for WB.
Unfortunately for WB, their only superhero films with any credibility were the Nolan films, which were a trilogy that's over and done with and have no bearing storywise on what's coming.
Why do you say this to me? When you know I will kill you for it?

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
Batman v Superman is not damage control. It's a film WB has wanted for awhile. The plan in 2004 was to release Batman and Superman films on alternating years and they have them team up. Batman Begins came out in 05, and Superman Returns in 06. TDK came out in 08 and Bryan Singer's "Man of Steel" was supposed to come out in 09, but Superman Returns didn't perform well at the BO (19 weeks in theatres and only grossed $391 million worldwide with a $260 million budget) or position the character the way WB wanted. So plans for the 2012 Batman Superman film were scrapped and we got TDKRises instead. Now that WB has their successful Superman film, they are moving ahead with crossing over these 2 characters. It's why they are not commissioning any new Batman films. There is no point in reintroducing Batman to an audience that is already familiar with him.
As far as MOS not being embraced by the masses, check out it's numbers. You can conclude that a lot of people liked the film and even thought it was good enough to buy.

The first Superman film in the reboot franchise made more money domestically than both the 2nd Thor and Captain America films. Where MOS didn't do as well is in foreign markets. If you compare MOS against Thor 1, Captain America 1, Iron Man 1 or 2; Superman beats them.
So the Superman franchise has legs and it's moving right along with it's sequel. It'll no doubt cross the billion dollar threshold with Dawn of Justice.

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
I'm on my out the door, so I don't have to doublecheck exact figures, but i think you'll find that MOS had a phenomenal first weekend...
And a MASSIVE drop, (over 60%, I believe 61%) in its second weekend, which is a higher drop than most films of its type.
You'll also find that Amazing Spiderman and Batman Begins, two other reboots, did better over time than MOS which got weaker as it went along.
MOS had big numbers, but that's largely due to its frontloaded first weekend.
Also, MOS didn't do well in foreign markets, which is embarrassing considering he's up there with Batman and Spiderman as probably the most famous of all superheros.
Superman SHOULD ALWAYS beat Captain America or Thor.
Why do you say this to me? When you know I will kill you for it?

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
... Anyway, how do I feel about superhero moves? Well, they're a big hit whenever I loose 'em on the dance floor.
ba-dum TSHH!
Okay, no, but seriously, I'm generally in favor of them, though I kind of hope the DCCU bombs, as I'm not sure the market can sustain both it and the MCU. Let 'em keep making Batmans and maybe the odd Supergirl, but I've got no interest in their Invisible Jet Pilot or Fish-Friend Person.
As for X-Men, I loved DOFP (movie of the summer) but agree it's time to move on from anti-mutant discrimination as the primary motivator of plots. The whole Apocalypse angle suggests that Singer and Co. agree, so I'm optimistic there.
As for Spider-Man, I think the new series could be righted with solid future movies, though given that they're more or less confined to a single city, and team-ups aren't exactly in the cards, Sony may just have to accept that the franchise's days as top-tier mega-blockbusters are ending/over. I was thinking the other day that, if not for the budget issue, Spider-Man may be better suited to TV. A really daring series might try to mix filmed dialogue scenes with unabashedly animated action sequences, but I don't see that happening anytime soon for all sorts of reasons.

Re: How do you feel about superhero moves?
The recent X-Men and Spidey movies are watchable enough, but the premises are feeling awfully played out by now.
And being a big DC guy I loved MOS and am extremely hopeful for the upcoming DC Universe movies.

Every school has its good and not-so-good points. GCS really is a great school. I am a firm believer that Christ-centered faith must be reinforced at home church AND school. As has already been stated in other reviews they offer more academically while reinforcing faith at the same time and I love it! Not-so-good is the lack of recognition for the students who excel academically once they reach middle school. The students already work hard due to the accelerated curriculum. That they be recognized as Honor Roll students for their hard work is not asking too much! My only other issue is the lack of communication about fundraising results. You will inundated with requests and mandates to participate in the fundraising activities. The same effort they put in to getting a "commitment" from you should be the same level of effort they put in to letting you know how things turned out once the fundraising activity is completed. Do I recommend GCS? All things considered yes I do. But I have had enough and I am glad my child is graduating from the 8th grade this year.

FlickrExport 4 for iPhoto
An app by fraserspeirs
FlickrExport 4 is the latest version of the popular Flickr plugin for iPhoto. It goes far beyond Apple's built in Flickr integration to offer uploads to multiple groups and sets, geotagging, license selection and much more.
Comments on this application

Love this. It'd be great if it could pull geo
information from the photo (in iPhoto) rather
than requiring it be set within the Flickr
Export dialog. Beyond that it does just about
everything I want. Awesome!

Henry Fonda, Victor Mature and Walter Brennan star in John Ford's acclaimed film that climaxes with the famous gunfight at O.K. Corral. As Wyatt Earp (Fonda) and his brothers head for a peaceful life of ranching in 1880's California, tragedy moves Wyatt to pin on a badge once more. But when he becomes the law in Tombstone, home to Doc Holliday (Mature) and the Clanton boys, it's only a matter of time until the Earps and Doc face the Clantons in one of the most remembered battles of the Wild West. Featuring Linda Darnell and Ward Bond, My Darling Clementine is considered to be one of Ford's finest films.

Texas Needs Extra Year For New Teacher Evaluations
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) – Texas will need an extra year to unveil a new teacher evaluation system that's required as the state seeks relief from some curriculum standards mandated by No Child Left Behind.
State Education Commissioner Michael Williams wrote the U.S. Education Department on Wednesday saying a pilot evaluation program would be delayed 12 months.
Last year, Texas sought a federal waiver from the 2001 No Child Left Behind law – even though then-President George W. Bush modeled it after academic standards he'd overseen as Texas governor.
That waiver required implementing a new teacher evaluation system. Texas hasn't updated its evaluation regimen in 17 years, though, and now says it will need more time.
The Association of Texas Professional Educators applauded the move, saying new teacher evaluations shouldn't be implemented hastily.

CJ Pony Parts Mustang Gift Card is rated out of 5 by 3.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Sara13 from Quick and easy gift card ordering I bought a gift card for my brother's birthday and had it sent directly to him. He received it within a few days, as expected. Quick and easy is always nice. I like that it was an actual gift card too, not just an email with a number attached.

Your personal files and folders can always be compromised and found, even if they are well hidden on your computer. A good idea would be to create password protection for each one of them, in order to maximize security.
HideJet offers a software solution to these problems, by allowing you to encase your files and directories with password protection, as well as encrypt text block using secure hashing algorithms that require encryption keys. In order to fully function, the application requires .Net Framework installed on your computer.
Dependable file and folder encryption tool with modern-looking interface
The program helps you encrypt any file, by adding password protection to each one. Furthermore, you can encrypt and hide folders in a similar way. Aside from this, you can use the encrypted Facebook chat, a handy feature that helps you secure your social network conversations, so that no one can access them and violate your privacy.
You can also set a password for accessing HideJet, in order to further increase the security on your private files and folders. As an extra caution method, you can set a vocal password, so that anyone trying to break your text password will not be able to pass the voice recognition system.
Fast file and text encryption and decryption utility
The application allows you to encrypt text blocks, by typing or pasting them, then selecting an encryption key.
After the plaintext is encrypted with the key, the output digest is displayed. This encrypted text can be further decrypted with the same key used for encryption. In addition, the application helps you chat with your friends on Facebook without allowing others to see your conversation.
An intuitive file protection program that offers text encryption and secure chat
To conclude, HideJet gives you the possibility to secure your private files and folders by adding text or vocal password protection for each one. Additionally, you can send encrypted text over the Internet or keep your Facebook chats hidden and encrypted, as the application creates text digests using encryption keys and advanced hashing algorithms.

Postponements and taxes and cuts — oh my!
The choices facing President Obama's debt commission when it begins meeting later this month are obvious, but just as obviously unpalatable to voters who are not certain how big the problem is.
"The basic challenge is political in that we've gotten to a situation where the spending promises we've made can't be financed with the levels of taxation we've agreed upon," said Robert L. Bixby, executive director of the Concord Coalition, a long-standing bipartisan budget watchdog group. "Getting out of that dynamic requires either cutting back on the spending promises or raising taxes. Those are politically explosive choices."
With the commission's first meeting slated for April 27 in Washington, the debate already is gearing up. Last week, former Federal Reserve Board Chairman Paul A. Volcker, who is now an economic adviser to Mr. Obama, floated the idea of establishing a value-added tax, a type of consumption tax.
Mr. Obama has said everything from new taxes to cuts in spending will be on the table, and the commissioners already have a built-in mission. When Mr. Obama submitted his 2011 budget to Congress this year, he left a glaring hole in the future years that he said the commission will have to close.
The contours are clear. The Congressional Budget Office projects deficits averaging nearly $1 trillion a year for the next decade under the budget Mr. Obama submitted in February, and the total debt held by the public would reach 90 percent of gross domestic product.
When it begins, the commission will be repeating the work of watchdog groups such as the Concord Coalition and the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. Maya MacGuineas, president of CRFB, said it will be clear when they crunch the numbers that "the bulk of the problem is spending."
"It's a worthwhile strategy to say, 'Let's find as many spending cuts as we as a country are willing to stomach, and then go ahead and find new taxes,'" she said.
How big that stomach is, though, is uncertain.
Democratic strategist James Carville and pollster Stan Greenberg finished a round of polling last month on closing the budget hole. Mr. Carville said little has changed since 1993, when spending also took top billing among issues of concern.
"The political will to deal with this today is no greater than it was in 1993, and the information about it has not really advanced, and so to ask the political system to do something that there's no sense of urgency in the country to do is to ask a lot," Mr. Carville told reporters in a briefing on the polling.
He and Mr. Greenberg found that nearly half of voters think government has enough waste and inefficiency to cut that it can control spending without touching Social Security or the other major benefit programs.
When forced to choose how to balance the budget, voters pick spending cuts over tax increases by a huge margin — 71 percent to 18 percent, in the Democracy Corps poll — but there is little agreement on what to cut, and voters usually rule out the major items.
A YouGov/Economist poll released last week found that of more than 15 proposed cuts, from Social Security to defense to environmental programs, only one - foreign aid - was acceptable to a majority of voters. In fact, at 71 percent, it was the only option that topped 30 percent acceptable.
But foreign aid accounts for less than 1 percent of federal spending, so eliminating it altogether would do hardly anything for the deficit.

Kaiser Chiefs in Dubai
Seven things you didn't know about Brit indie rockers Discuss this article
Its official – Sandance is getting rockier with every passing incarnation. Starting life at the tail end of 2010 as a dance musical festival, the first indie-shaped curveball came last autumn when former Verve frontman Richard Ashcroft was suddenly parachuted in to play an acoustic set on a bill alongside Sasha and Chicane. A month later it got rockier with a full band set from The Script, plus more guitars (albeit of the acoustic variety) from Pete Murray. At last month's fifth festival the change was solidified – indie tear-merchants Snow Patrol were the main event; it was officially a gig, not a DJ event.
Now the Sandance team have gone one step louder by recruiting sprightly indie rockers Kaiser Chiefs. Best known for the ever-so-slightly annoying UK number one 'Ruby', they were forced to endure being the butt of one too many jokes about their crystal ball talents off the back of 2004's 'I Predict a Riot', following widespread rioting in the UK last year. As the Chiefs fly into play alongside Rizzle Kicks and Armand Van Helden on Friday April 6, we brushed up on some facts.
They met over a dance-off.
The Kaisers' songwriting duo, frontman Ricky Wilson and drummer Nick Hodgson, met at a mod nightclub in the UK city of Leeds, where they had a dance-off to 'Memphis Soul Stew' by King Curtis.
They weren't always the Chiefs.
The pair formed Runston Parva in 1997 with three friends (after the English village of Runston Parva). They ditched the Runston part of their moniker and signed to record label Mantra, which dropped them before Parva's debut album, 22 (their average age), was released.
Ricky Wilson's name is an anagram of 'I know lyrics'.
As a singer, that's an important part of his job.
The band are big fans of football team Leeds United.
Having left Mantra, they renamed themselves Kaiser Chiefs, after Kaizer Chiefs, the South African football team that Leeds ace Lucas Radebe used to play for.
They've always had a huddle before each show (even in their Parva days).
It's strictly for band members only.
They all love Blur.
Parva sounded like Blur in their Pavement phase. Kaiser Chiefs sound like Blur in their 'Parklife' phase. Their song 'Saturday Night' features a recording of Graham Coxon revving his Honda Hornet. They also admit to aping Blur's sound – when they met Damon Albarn in the mid-2000s, Hodgson joked, 'I hope you've not brought your lawyers.'
And on their days off…
Left-handed guitarist and motor scooter collector Andrew White is a former Yorkshire BMX champion.
Kaiser Chiefs play Sandance at Sandance Beach, Atlantis The Palm on Friday April 6, 2pm-2am. www.timeouttickets.comBy Time Out Dubai staff

Zürich Travel Guide
Le Corbusier's last building - a glass-and-steel structure that looks like a Mondrian painting in 3-D - has now been transformed into a museum. Completed after his death in 1965, it's now named after the patron who commissioned it. It houses Le Corbusier's sketches, lithographs, and writings.
This gallery, which has satellites in London and New York, represents everyone from sculptor Louise Bourgeois to Swiss video artist Pipilotti Rist.
Bischofberger was Jean-Michel Basquiat's European dealer, so it's no surprise to find an exhibition of the artist's collages and paintings.
Owner Ursula Weber sells beaded necklaces, gold-threaded scarves, embroidered pillows, and other treasures from northern Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.
Sprüngli serves its iconic hamburger shaped Luxemburgerli. The shop also has one of the best deals in Zurich, 10 truffles for $7.
Create a lunch to go at this specialty grocer with an excellent wine cellar, a vast gourmet deli, and artful displays of jams, honeys, and chocolates.
Within this 12th-century cathedral the soaring nave is magnificent, and the interior is spare -aside from the jewel-toned chancel windows, designed in 1933 by Augusto Giacometti, Alberto's second cousin.
The department store carries a plethora of cool Swiss flag–branded tote bags, diaries, and other paraphernalia.

Hey, I'm P A!
I do love life!
I was born in North Wales many moons ago, on a farm, the eldest of seven children.
Having dreamed of an exciting life, I went off and lived it.
And continue to live a very exciting life.
Firstly in London in advertising and journalism, then in the motion picture business in New York and California (and indeed round the world on many film locations).
I married an Italian and we had two sons in Rome They are adult now, living round the world. (I'm a grandparent!). One works in the motion picture business, the other is a designer. They turned out OK and I love them to bits; more than the moon and the stars!
I recently recovered from a serious illness ( which makes living so precious).
Here in Tuscany,( with my companion of more than 20 years, Sergio), we live in paradise. We are enjoying welcoming others into this paradise!
In the winter, I visit my family in California and write. My best friend is building me a bedsit in her garden, so I guess I'm not impossible to live with.
In no particular order, I can't live without caffe latte for breakfast, my children's love, my brothers and sisters love and phone calls,good books, good friends, cracking up as often as possible, sunbathing, my cats, movies, movies, movies...peace and quiet. Books books books.
I love seasonal fresh foods, Mexican restaurants, a sandwich on the beach, a mint tea before going to sleep (which Sergio makes me), birds.... and so much more.
I don't enjoy traveling to third world countries.
Learned that hosting is utterly rewarding. We had a great summer making friends through airbnb travelers; they all seemed to completely enjoy this wild place we live in. It felt so fresh and vitalizing.
Isn't having a holiday the best part of the year?
Isn't it great to help make lots of people happy?
We love it!
It's a real trip.

There's one smiling jack-o-lantern, one tiny ghost and one that says "Boo", plus 3 finished with Halloween drizzle or festive sprinkles. These gourmet truffle cake pops are an indescribably delicious, A-list dessert that they're certain to love!
