Does exactly what it says on the tin. Basic but clean and quiet, and very cheap! For only 10 euros you get a room to yourself with a basin, so no queuing just to brush your teeth, and some rooms have a toilet (which feels really odd, doing your business in your own room). Security is good, as every door locks, and you get a key to open the front door in the early hours. The owner can be a bit anal at times, especially when it comes to checking out (he can often be heard firmly saying "I want you out by 12 o'clock!"), but if you try not to bother him too much, you should be fine. The showers have no stall, making showering awkward, and no curtain, but at least the water was hot. There are no other facilities for guests i.e., common room, you pay for the bed and shower and nothing more (this makes meeting people difficult, but note that many international students use this place as a base for finding permanent accommodation during September and February). This place is neither luxurious nor friendly, but if you aren't too picky and are on a tight budget, this is a great choice. — Hannah (2007-01-01)

in 1850, Mr. Stowe accepting a professorship at Bowdoin College, Brunswick, Maine. A few boarders were taken into the family to eke out the limited salary, and Mrs. Stowe earned a little from a sketch written now and then for the newspapers. She had even obtained a prize of fifty dollars for a New England story. Her six brothers had fulfilled their mother's dying wish, and were all in the ministry. She was now forty years old, a devoted mother, with an infant; a hard-working teacher, with her hands full to overflowing. It seemed improbable that she would ever do other than this quiet, unceasing labor. Most women would have said, "I can do no more than I am doing. My way is hedged up to any outside work."
But Mrs. Stowe's heart burned for those in bondage. The Fugitive Slave Law was hunting colored people and sending them back into servitude and death. The people of the North seemed indifferent. Could she not arouse them by something she could write?

a1 Department of Chemistry, Indian Institute of Technology, Hauz Khas, New Delhi 110016, India
Nanoparticles of barium orthotitanate (Ba2TiO4) was obtained using microemulsions (avoiding Ba-alkoxide). Powder x-ray diffraction studies of the powder after calcining at 800 °C resulted in a mixture of orthorhombic (70%) and monoclinic (30%) phases. The high-temperature orthorhombic form present at 800 °C was due to the small size of particles obtained by the reverse micellar route. Pure orthorhombic Ba2TiO4 was obtained on further sintering at 1000 °C with lattice parameters a = 6.101(2) Å, b =22.94(1) Å, c = 10.533(2) Å (space group, P21nb). The particle size obtained from x-ray line broadening studies and transmission electron microscopic studies was found to be 40–50 nm for the powder obtained after heating at 800 °C. Sintering at 1000 °C showed increase in grain size up to 150 nm. Our studies corroborate well with the presence of a martensitic transition in Ba2TiO4. The dielectric constant was found to be 40 for Ba2TiO4 (at 100 kHz) for samples sintered at 1000 °C. The dielectric loss obtained was low (0.06) at 100 kHz.

It's Monday! What Are You Reading?
I am just eternally behind and I am just going to own it. I am…
And that said… here is the mini version of this post…
This meme is used to share what we read this past week and what our plans are for the upcoming week. It's a great way to see what others are reading and add to your own To Be Read list. You never know where that next great read may come from!
Here is what I posted this past week:
Banned.. Yes It Is That Time Again
Banned In Boston… A Guest Post

Morning Meanderings… Final to Banned Book Week and 6 Months
This is the post that should have been yesterday however with the book sale… my overextended schedule this past week and my inability to sleep through the night – I did not get it posted. I did not forget – just had to let it go for a bit. :)
Soooooo. with that…
Here is the final day of banned book week post. Let me just say, what a week. I am bummed it hit during our Fall Book Sale as I had no time to really dig into the books or the posts. Thank goodness for all of you who grabbed the banned book week banner and waved it high. Here are the final day thoughts on banned book week from wonderful readers:
Laurel at An Interior Journey shares her thoughts on the banned book, Forever by Judy Blume. I was a huge Judy Blume fan growing up!
Kai at A Fiction State of Mind talks about the trending Magna books and their tendency to be banned as well as her thoughts on the book The Color Of Earth by Kim Dong Hwa.
I do hope you will check out their posts as someone this week will have a picture within their post and if you find that post (AND comment on the post) and email me (email@example.com) to tell me who's post you found it on you will go into a special drawing for…
This mug will be shipped directly to one of our commenters on the Banned Book Post you find THIS picture on:
**Important note** A few of you have emailed me with your responses of where you found the above picture and something I did not anticipate is that some of the blog posts this weeks used the above logo in their posts which is not the giveaway one. Look closely at the picture – it will be the one above which has a frame and my website on it. Sorry about any confusion – I will be more creative next year :)
Thank you to all who participated in banned book week! Please check out my posts of earlier this week and catch up on the great reads and giveaways. I will announce our winner for the Banned Book Cup tonight with Its Monday What Are You Reading so you still have time to look for the image hiding in one of the banned book week posts as described above.
Real quick – here is what has come in the house in the past two weeks as bookish! I am not going to link them as I usually do as I have so much going on today just trying to catch up on a weeks worth of not being around. Laundry and canning are on the itinerary as well as white chicken chili, and I need a new audio :) Later today watch for my thoughts on the Banned Book Gone With The Wind. It is also 6 months today since Justin's accident. Unbelievable. It has been the hardest 6 months of my life and I can not imagine what the next 6 months will hold. I am indeed a broken mess of a person just trying to find a new normal that I can accept. Thank you as always for being a part of my life – even those who I only know from your words here… thank you.
Hand To Mouth by Linda Tirado
The Author of the popular "Poverty Thoughts" essay puts into her own words what it is like to be poor in a world that expects more from you even if you don't have the means to grasp for more. Author Linda Tirado shares what it is like to not have the money to get the clothes, to get the car, to get the education,to have what it takes to get the job that one needs to make a living that is actually to provide LIVING.
This is why I usually don't chose to read and review non fiction about authors lives or memoirs unless Ihave purchased the book/audio myself. It is so hard to review a non fiction about someone's life without somehow it being taken as a personal jab on that person. Basically, what I am trying to say is that it is hard to separate the book from the author when it is about the authors life.
When I accepted this audio for review I had never heard of the essay "Poverty Thoughts". I chose this book because I thought it would be interesting to hear from a person who struggles to make a living and make ends meet. I totally understand that it is a hard world we live in and it is hard to get ahead – and in many aspects in this book, Author Linda Tirado has valid points on working for minimum wage, trying to cover rent costs, etc.. and get ahead of the bills – that I get.
However –
I did not enjoy hearing about her smoking habit and how she is tired of hearing people tell her how she should not smoke (waste of money) when clearly she feel she must smoke (stress). The same goes for her reasons to drink. AND if we are going there, and I guess we are – she also had excuses of why it is ok to have sex with random people because poor people are also lonely people.
Linda has very poor teeth and she talks a lot about this int he book and how they stop her from getting better paying jobs. I understand that. She says she can not go to the free clinic because of how many appointments she would need and how much time it would take off work and I understand that as well, however something as important as your appearance seems to me like it would be worth making it work out in the long run doing whatever it takes.
She complains about the low paying jobs she has had and the lack of respect that comes with them, calling out Walmart many times. Again, I know that not all Wal-Marts are created alike – but I worked at our local store for 14 years and not only was I paid a good wage, I was treated very well.
She also talks about the expense of having a child but speaks of the child at times as a piece of property and not in very flattering ways.
Ok – I may be way off base on this one. I feel that Linda Tirado may have been on to a decent book here, the one that I had hoped to get when I agreed to review this. I did not need to listen to sexual stories or why she has bad habits. It started to seem like she was just talking about anything to make it book length.
This review is absolutely nothing against the author or her family. This is my personal opinion on what was said in this book. It was not a win for me. The essay however – was interesting to read. And in Linda's defense, I am not in her shoes, so maybe – most likely – that opinion is all my own.

Morning Meanderings…. Having Your Cake…
Friday. Holy wow. What a week.
This morning at 5:00 am I was baking brownies for a funeral of a really good friends father. I will be cutting out of the book sale for a while today to attend the visitation and I am bringing brownies for the funeral tomorrow.
It made me think of banned book week and how some feel that they can say what can and cannot be read by others… but don't you dare judge what they read….
It's like having your cake and eating it too….
It's like saying I own a Honda vehicle so everyone else should too and all other cars should be obsolete. Ford, Dodge, whatever your poison is… you drive what you drive… it may not be for me – but it works fine for you.
Any hoo… here are today's awesome banned book week selections. I do apologize if I have missed anyone this week. Banned Book Week had to hit on the busiest week I have had in a month and I am trying to write these posts whenever I have a moment (today that would be at 6 am before I go to the book sale) however it is that important to me that Banned books are discussed.
Worth Getting In Bed For discusses the banned book, Perks Of Being A Wallflower (loved this one!)
Author Nadine Feldman talks about her encounter with Author Sherman Alexie and his book, The Absolute True Diary Of A Part Time Indian.
Writers Flow offers up a smart Banned Book Cartoon.
Sue at Book by Book writes her thoughts on John Green's banned book, Looking For Alaska

Thats all…. brownies are done and I have a sale to get to! Have a super day! :)
Banned Books…. Did You Know????
Woo… the day got away from me! Last night I was too tired to prepare this post. After leaving the library at 4 pm after the sale set up I thought I would grab a few quick groceries and then go home… for the record… nothing happens "quick" in my life anymore. Every where I go I run into people I know who want to check in with me and I wind up talking with them…. I am not complaining – I a thankful for these wonderful people in our life… they are the lifeblood of my existence right now however….
I made it home at 6 pm.
Making dinner, trying to catch up on my house, the lawn needs mowing, I had to move the tomatoes off my tables so I could use them for the book sale and well…
This morning I left the house at 5:40 am to set up the childrens sale and now I have a little break before I go back to the sale so here, with no further rambling from me are the posts for banned book week today:
Stacey at the Novel Life writes about You Can't Read That, her personal story of growing up in a family that did not sensor her reading and the banned books she loves. She also has a pretty sweet giveaway going on!

**Important note** A few of you have emailed me with your responses of where you found the above picture and something I did not anticipate is that some of the blog posts this weeks used the above logo in their posts which is not the giveaway one. Look closely at the picture – it will be the one above which has a frame and my website on it. Sorry about any confusion – I will be more creative next year :)
Have a great weekend of reading a banned book! I am back to the book sale!
Morning Meanderings…. BANNED COFFEE?????
Good morning. I am here…. still drinking tea. I have had no time to go out and purchase a coffee grinder for the Coffee beans that await me. Yes… yes… I could pick up ground coffee but now it is a thing. Coffee grinder or bust.
Why does banned book week always have to be so BUSY? We are in our final day of the fall books sale set up, this afternoon I have errands to run for a meeting tomorrow, find tables for the children's books, mow my lawn, can tomatoes, and tomorrow starts the sale where I will be from morning until night the next three days.
So badly I want to pick up one of these books we are chatting away about but alas…. no time this week.
Anyhoo…. more posts today for you and for me! Got to love these great banned book posts! Here is what is out there for you to enjoy today:

BANNED IN BOSTON (A Guest Post)
My friend Andrea – Book Journey reader and big time supporter when it comes to encouraging emails this year, has written this post regarding Movies Made From Banned Books. Please enjoy.
Throughout history ideas have been suppressed by all kinds of people, and groups of all persuasions. They do this because they object to the expression of ideas which conflict with their own beliefs, or to silence those they disagree with – and the practice of censorship continues even now. According to the American Library Association parents challenge materials more often than any other group. After all, if you hear someone complain, even if you haven't read or seen the thing they are complaining about, and they say they are trying to protect the kids…it's all about the kids.
I am just old enough to remember the waning days of labeling books, records, films and other media as "Banned in Boston" which, by then, had almost become a guarantee of sales in other parts of the U.S. The vestiges of New England's "Blue Laws" still existed: stores weren't allowed to be open on Sundays, except for bodegas that sold gas. This was before movies had "ratings", and you were lucky to even find a cinema open on Sunday that your family could go to together. After all, rules were rules.
According to the Morris Dictionary of Word and Phrase (1988) the expression "Banned in Boston" dates to the 1920's when the "long-established Watch and Ward Society of the so-called Hub of the Universe was forever getting the city censor to ban books from sale. Many publishers actively sought to have their books banned in Boston because they knew the label would increase their sales in the rest of the country…"
If you watch any older movies you've seen them: those movies that, in their heyday day, were fairly risqué, full of double entendre. Yes, movies and books have been "Banned in Boston" even before the 1920's. As we view those films now, they seem pretty mild and some are even considered classics; and some of them actually began their existence as books, many of which were also banned at one time or place or another. Here are a few of them:
Animal Farm (1954)
The publication of George Orwell's 1945 novel, Animal Farm, came at a time when Stalin was at the height of his reign in the Soviet Union. Orwell, clearly not a fan of Stalin's leadership philosophy, had a difficult time finding a publisher for his book, because its content was satirical criticism of Stalin.
Since its publication, Animal Farm has been banned in the USSR, the United Arab Emirates, Cuba, and North Korea. Though adapted multiple times, but the one to watch (after you read the book) is the 1954 animated version by Joy Batchelor. Though it deviated from the source material, it's an interesting and entertaining addition to the world of book-to-film adaptations.
The Da Vinci Code (2006)
The Da Vinci Code, the best-selling 2003 novel by Dan Brown, introduced us to Robert Langdon and the idea that there is so much more than meets the eye in the world of Christianity. The novel struck the Catholic Church as offensive and the powers-that-be in Lebanon went so far as to ban it in that country. Its publication inspired controversy among critics, historians, and theologians. Ron Howard directed the 2006 movie adaptation starring Tom Hanks and Audrey Tatou. Critics were as divided about the film but, ultimately, no matter where you stand on its content, at its core it's a nail-biter of an adventure. [I liked his next book, Angels and Demons better, but I'm sure that will never be made into a movie]
Gone with the Wind (1939)
It didn't take long for Margaret Mitchell's 1936 Pulitzer-and National Book Award-winning novel, Gone with the Wind, to get snatched up by Hollywood. The epic tale was brought to the big screen by David O. Selznick and Victor Fleming. Its production was massive and often troubled, but following its release in 1939, the story, script, and star power (Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh) earned it ten Academy Award wins. The book has been challenged on and off over the years because of its realistic depictions of slavery and race issues, the latest iteration of this concerns the film's repeated use of about the "N word."
Easy A (Inspired by The Scarlet Letter) (2010)
In 2010, screenwriter Bert V. Royal teamed up with director Will Gluck to bring a (very loose) adaptation of Nathaniel Hawthorne's 1850 novel, The Scarlet Letter, to the big screen. Together, they created a film that would join "Clueless" and "10 Things I Hate About You" in the Best Classic to Teen Dramedy Club (and would, simultaneously, launch the career of Emma Stone). The themes in Hawthorne's novel – illegitimacy and adultery — were quite risqué for his time and led to its being challenged many times over the years. Many times the challenge came from the more conservative protestant churches as it also depicted a corrupt minister.
To Kill a Mockingbird (1962)
Harper Lee's now-classic 1960 novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, takes place in the early 1930's in Alabama. Atticus Finch, respected attorney and father to Scout and Jem, takes on the defense of a black man named Tom Robinson. Tom has been accused of raping a white woman — and by defending him, Atticus is opening himself up to the scorn and threats of the locals in his predominantly racist Southern hometown. In spite of many efforts across the world to ban Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, most recently in 2013 in the U.S., it has sold more than thirty million copies. The 1962 movie adaptation, starring Gregory Peck, Brock Peters, and Robert Duvall, won three Academy Awards and was nominated for an additional five.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)
In 1962, Ken Kesey published the novel One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, set in a psychiatric hospital in Oregon. The story is told from the perspective of Chief Bromdem, a Native American man assumed to be deaf and mute. Chief's observations of, and insights into the mental and actual worlds of his fellow patients and the hospital staff are thoughtful. They most often focus on Randle Patrick McMurphy, a man who feigned insanity in order to serve a jail sentence in the psych ward rather than prison. The book has been challenged and banned multiple times across the country, and has been called "pornographic" and "garbage." Milos Forman brought the book to screen in 1975 with an adaptation starring Jack Nicholson, Will Sampson, and Louise Fletcher. It won five Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Lead Actress, and Best Lead Actor.
Where the Wild Things Are (2009)
Spike Jonze's 2009 adaptation of the Maurice Sendak classic children's book, Where the Wild Things Are, reportedly had the perfect source material and the perfect screenwriter in Dave Eggers. The book, published in the early 1960's, has been challenged over the years because of its dark subject matter – the fantasy world of wildness created by the young Max in his bedroom after he is sent there "without his dinner" – the book remains a perennial favorite of many parents.
Of Mice and Men (1939)
Almost from its publishing, this dark story by John Steinbeck has been adapted to movies, stage presentations and even as a Merrie Melodies cartoon. The best version according to critics and cineophiles alike reaches back to Lewis Milestone's Oscar-nominated 1939 adaptation. The book has been challenged over the years because of its"accurate" depiction of slavery in the United States.
Sophie's Choice (1982)
William Styron's 1979 novel, Sophie's Choice, is the story of three people sharing living space in a Brooklyn boarding house in 1947. One of these three, Sophie, has survived the concentration camps that peppered the landscape of World War II. She carries with her the guilt from a decision she made at while interred. The novel has been challenged often due to its explicit sexual content. In 1982 director Alan J. Pakula adapted Styron's novel for film, starring Meryl Streep, who earned her second life Oscar for her performance.
The Lord of the Rings (2001)
J.R.R. Tolkien's 1954 fantasy novel, The Lord of the Rings, which began an epic trilogy, has been adapted in numerous iterations since its publication. When Peter Jackson decided to direct a brand-new trilogy beginning in 2001, however, all previous versions fell into the background as Jackson's creative brilliance brought new life to the story, while respecting Tolkien's source material. The entire trilogy has been challenged on grounds of being "irreligious." Regardless, the first title in the series is, to date, one of the best-selling novels of all time. The real truth about Tolkien was that he was, in fact, a very religious person.
Being "Banned in Boston" in the 21st century doesn't happen much anymore in this age of self-publishing and "Kindle singles".
Negative publicity can reflect positively in sales. My question remains:
Why were books that make us think, and perhaps broaden our minds and cause us to think in new ways, be banned in a society that upholds free speech?
Morning Meanderings… Banned Aid
Good morning! Day 3 of BANNED BOOK WEEK! I sit here this morning drinking tea as I bought this delicious coffee I can not wait to taste from Caribou Coffee and forgot that I had given away my coffee grinder because I never used it and now…

Yesterday I put the Banned Book Window up in the library. I think it turned out fairly well since I just grabbed a bunch of books off my own book shelves and made a few signs about why they were banned. *As a banned book lover I tend to have A LOT of banned books on my shelves.
And now I need to get ready to go back to the library and assist with set up for the sale that starts on Thursday. SO MANY BOOKS. Seriously…. It is a bit crazy how many books we will have at this sale.
Banned Meanderings… Yes. It Is That Time Again
Good morning from Minnesota. Day 2 of the Banned Book Week Already. GAH! How time flies… and I finished Gone With The Wind yesterday (more on that BANNED BOOK later).

So that's it for this morning. Set up for the Library's fall book sale starts this morning and I am also setting the library window to banned book week as well. SO….. off I go!
WHAT Banned book are you reading this week?
p.s. I just realized this moment that I forgot to post It's Monday What Are You Reading last night. My bad. Fell right out of my head. Next week then…..
Morning Meanderings…. Banned Book Week Kick Off!
Sunday. COFFEE. The first day of life beginning to simmer again. With today being the first day of Banned Book Week (YAY!) and tomorrow starts the fall book sale set up leading to the book sale later in the week and then a big board meeting a week from Monday and Tuesday a meeting and Thursday of that week the Minnesota Library Association meeting and a day out-of-town….
lets just say things are about to get bookish.
And really – they have. Welcome to Banned Book Week a week I LOVE being a part of and try to read books during that week that have been banned or challenged.
So today I am still listening to…
Not only is this our October classic read for book club… it is also a Banned Book.
The Civil War epic which is often cited as one of the most beloved novels of all time was banned by a California school district for the book's portrayal of slaves in the antebellum South and for the immoral behavior of its heroine, Scarlett O'Hara.
Just Google "Gone With The Wind Banned" and you will find a plethora of information on potential Gone With The Wind bannings – in book form AND in movie format as well.
But what does it say about us as a nation if we continue to embrace a movie that, in the final analysis, stands for many of the same things as the Confederate flag that flutters so dramatically over the dead and wounded soldiers at the Atlanta train station just before the "GWTW'' intermission? ~ New York Post June 24th 2015
Yes – Gone With The Wind DOES use many words and references to African Americans that is not correct – not b a long shot. Even I admit to cringing at parts – HOWEVER, while this is by no means acceptable now. It was at the time. AND like it or not… we can not change history.
So… I continue to read/listen to Gone With The Wind and I will watch the movie afterwards to get the fully rounded effect of a bucket list book – AND look forward to our book discussion.
Each year I offer other book reviewers, authors, etc to join me in reading a banned book during Banned Book Week. I love the surprise that people have when they realize a beloved childhood read, or a favorite classic, or even a modern-day YA is on this list. Banning is flatly – censorship. And while I do not choose to read all banned books *cough cough 50 Shades of Gray cough cough* I do not have any right to say that YOU can not read it.
See how that works?
So today – I have a few bloggers joining me to chat up Banned Books. I do hope you will check out their posts as someone this week will have a picture within their post and if you find that post and email me (email@example.com) to tell me who's post you found it on you will go into a special drawing for…
This mug will be shipped directly to one of our commenters on the Banned Book Post you find THIS picture on:
A second mug will be given away from all the comments on banned book post participants posts this week including mine.
SO enough said…
Here are today's participants. Stop by. check them out. LEARN about banned books and READ them.
Brooke from Brooke Blogs: The Right To Think For Ourselves and a Giveaway!
(There are a couple more but I do not see their posts up yet so will add them if they put them up) :)
A quote from a banned book page on Gone With The Wind:
To the book burners; to those who hide from the truth of history; to those who oppress out of ignorance and fear I can only say this: Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.
Enjoy your Sunday. I am linking this to the Sunday Post as this is what I am up to today. Listening to Gone With The Wind, canning a little bit, and maybe mowing this afternoon. Here is a list to other banned classic reads. I bet you cant read just one.

(HOLLYWOOD, CA) -- Jill Kelly Productions has signed Nikki Benz as the newest contract starlet beginning November 1.
Born in the Ukraine and grew up in Canada, Benz began her adult film career first as a calendar and pin-up model. She is eager to begin performing in her first JKP film.
"I am very excited about becoming a part of the Jill Kelly Family," Benz said. "This is a very exciting time for me and I promise that great things are going to happen with our union!"
Formerly a Pleasure Productions contract girl, Benz says her experience in appearing XXX adult films has been positive thus far and hopes for longevity in her adult career.
"Being in adult films has brought a positive change in my life," Benz said. "I became more self confident and self assured. I have also learned many business skills. To me, this is a great business to be in if you have the right attitude and people skills. I hope to be in this business for a long time, eventually moving onto producing and directing."
Jill Kelly, president of JKP, is pleased to have Benz on board. "We are extremely happy to add Nikki to the JKP family," said Kelly. "She is absolutely gorgeous-a Barbie Doll come to life-and I look forward to getting her in front of the camera as soon as possible!"

George Child-Villiers, 5th Earl of Jersey(1773-1859), Master of the Horse to Queen Victoria
Sitter in 7 portraits
A keen foxhunter, Jersey was described by Nimrod, in his Crack Riders of England, as 'not only one of the hardest, boldest, and most judicious, but perhaps the most elegant rider to hounds the world ever saw'. He was also a dedicated supporter of horse racing, breeding and training his own horses at Middleton Park in Oxfordshire. Among his successes were Cobweb, who won the Oaks in 1824, and three Derby winners: Middleton, Mameluke, and Bay Middleton. Jersey served as Lord Chamberlain to King William IV in the Wellington and Peel ministries of 1830 and 1834-5, and as Master of the Horse to Queen Victoria, under Peel in 1841-6 and Derby in 1852.

Aberdeen 0 Celtic 2: Late salvo sees off Dons and gets Bhoys back to winning ways
Celtic made hard work of it but eventually netted twice in the final quarter of the game to defeat Aberdeen and jump to the top of the SPL, albeit with Hibs yet to play.
Lassad Nouioui opened the scoring when he stroked into an empty net in the 73rd minute, having only come on for Kris Commons four minutes earlier. Charlie Mulgrew added a second against his former club three minutes later.
Despite the early kick-off, the crowds arrived in their numbers as Pittodrie basked in the lunchtime sun.
Game over: Celtic's Charlie Mulgrew sparks wild scenes after netting the second
Match facts
Aberdeen: Langfield, Reynolds, Considine, Anderson, Magennis, Rae (Robertson 46), Osbourne, Clark, Fraser (Vernon 64), McGinn, Hayes (Fallon 78). Subs not used: Jason Brown, Shaughnessy, Masson, Smith.
Celtic: Forster, Matthews, Ambrose, Wilson, Mulgrew, Lustig, Wanyama, Kayal, Commons (Nouioui 69), Samaras (McGeouch 80), Watt. Subs not used: Zaluska, Nouioui, McCourt, Ibrahim, Atajic, Chalmers, McGeouch.
Goals: Nouioui 73, Mulgrew 77.
Referee: Craig Thomson.
Attendance: 18,000.
The home support were boosted by
teenage winger Ryan Fraser's swift recovery from an ankle knock
sustained in their 4-1 win over St Mirren last week. The only change to
the side that had started that game saw Gavin Rae return in place of
Clark Robertson.
Celtic, who had disappointingly drawn
with St Johnstone, handed Tony Watt a start after the promising young
striker came off the bench to find the net against the Saints. He
replaced Venezuelan striker Miku in attack.
There were two further alterations to
Neil Lennon's starting eleven, with midfielders Scott Brown and Joe
Ledley missing out. Mikael Lustig and Beram Kayal took their places in
the side.
As early as the second minute, Josh
Magennis' strong run up the right flank for Aberdeen allowed him to slip
a pass to Johnny Hayes, only for the former Inverness Caledonian
Thistle winger to send his left-footed shot into the side netting.
And five minutes later, the Dons' top scorer Niall McGinn fashioned an opening with neat play on the edge of the area, but Fraser Forster was able to gather comfortably.
On the scoresheet: Lassad Nouioui turns to celebrate after netting the first
By and large, though, it was a
scrappy opening period, with neither side taking command of the
midfield, and possession being surrendered easily and cheaply by both
Only a wickedly curling cross from
Adam Matthews had caused any concern for Aberdeen so far, although that
drifted harmlessly out of play at the back post.
The Hoops' first real chance came on the quarter-hour when former Don Mulgrew's corner was headed over by Victor Wanyama.
Two minutes later the strong running
of Watt saw him get by Mark Reynolds on the right before crossing for
Georgios Samaras, but the Greek striker's clever dink deflected away for
a corner off Russell Anderson.
Both sides were now beginning to
probe and when Rae won the ball in midfield he fed the precocious
Fraser, who tested Forster with a right-footed effort from 20 yards.
No holds barred: Gavin Rae goes in hard on Kris Commons
Celtic came closest yet as Commons
retrieved a half-cleared Mulgrew corner on the left and swung a
dangerous cross to the far post, where Watt headed off the base of the
Just after the half-hour, Chris Clark created space to cross from the left for the Dons and though McGinn got in the way of an initial header from Magennis, the former Celtic man reacted quickly to send a low shot narrowly wide of Forster's right-hand upright.
The Dons made a change at the
interval with Robertson replacing Rae, who had been touch and go before
the match. And the home side had some pressure early in the second half,
culminating in a Magennis throw being headed narrowly over by Anderson.
Celtic were presented with a fine
opportunity when Andrew Considine brought down Commons 22 yards out.
Mulgrew took the free-kick but looped his effort high and wide of the
far post.
Aberdeen were dealt a blow when Fraser was again forced off just after the hour, limping from the pitch to be replaced by Scott Vernon.
On the run: Georgios Samaras evades Gavin Rae
The Dons were undeterred, however,
and after 68 minutes they had their best chance yet. McGinn cut the ball
back for Hayes, and the Irishman set himself before firing low into the
side netting.
But the deadlock was finally broken
five minutes later, and the goal came for Celtic. Wanyama crashed a
25-yard shot off Jamie Langfield's left-hand post, and all newcomer
Nouioui had to do was roll the ball home.
Boosted by their goal, Celtic added a
second just three minutes later. Samaras crossed from the left and, at
the back post, Mulgrew acrobatically volleyed home left-footed.
The visitors had the ball in the net
again when Wanyama headed home at the back post, but the flag had
already been raised for offside against the Celtic man.

Canon EF 100–400mm lens
The EF 100–400mm f/4.5–5.6L IS USM is a professional EF mount telephoto zoom lens manufactured by Canon Inc. The first version of this lens was announced in September 1998, and an updated version was announced in November 2014. It is a high performance telephoto lens most often used for sports and wildlife photography; the original version has received high ratings from purchasers at Amazon.com[1] and B&H Photo Video.[2] Photographers using APS-C cameras must apply a crop factor of 1.6x, giving the lens a field of view equivalent to a 160–640mm lens.
Whilst the original version has excellent optical performance, its design predated the mass-market availability of digital single-lens reflex cameras. The telescoping nature of the original design means that the lens zooms quickly, although not all users prefer this design.[3] According to Roger Cicala, the head of the American lens rental house LensRentals.com,
...although it's a compromise, it's a very good compromise. It's nearly as sharp as the [300mm and 400mm] primes and far sharper than a consumer lens. The huge range means getting the shot framed just right and not having to change lenses, and it's relatively small and easy to shoot hand-held.[3]
The telescoping design means that the lens sucks in air when zoomed from shorter focal lengths to longer focal lengths. Unfortunately, with the lack of anything to prevent it, it also sucks in any airborne dust.[4] Although this was not considered a problem when used with cameras that used photographic film, the dust can settle on the sensor of digital cameras leaving a permanent mark on every subsequent photograph until it is cleaned off. Newer cameras with dust removal systems have mitigated this problem somewhat.[5]
This lens is compatible with the Canon Extender EF teleconverters on newer EOS bodies. Autofocus works with the 1.4× Extender (and only with cameras that can autofocus at f/8) and image stabilization (IS) works with both 1.4× and 2× Extenders.
The new Canon EF 100-400 f/4.5-5.6L IS II was announced on 11 November 2014 (10 November in the United States due to time zone differences from Japan), with availability expected the following month. Among the changes from the Mark I version are:[6][7]
- The zoom mechanism now uses a rotating ring (like most other Canon zoom lenses), instead of a push/pull system.
- The Mark II version also features a new lens hood with a side window, making it possible to adjust specialty filters (such as polarizers and variable neutral-density filters) without removing the hood.
- The tripod mount can now be removed while the lens is attached to a camera body. The Mark I tripod mount can only be removed when the lens is detached.
- The IS system has three modes instead of the two modes of the Mark I. The third mode (which Canon calls "Mode 3"), designed with action shooting in mind, except that stabilization is applied only during exposure. Previously, Mode 3 was available only on recent Canon supertelephoto lenses.[8]
