Outstanding 4.6 /5 from 551 reviews
Modern and stylish hotel with a centeral location. Resturant offers outstanding food and staff are warm & very welcoming.
The only downfall was that my room on the first floor was noisy, due to the trams. This aside the hotel is fabulous. The staff really go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable
Excellent hotel. Wonderful room. Staff extremely friendly and fun. Great place to explore the 'Dam' from. Recommended.
The staff was extremely nice and very helpful!
First time with family in amsterdam, stayed at the Conservatorium for the first part of our trip, and second part in art'otel. The location is very convenient as it is right across from central station, so getting to other cities and taking the tram was very easy. It is about 10-15 min walk to dam square. The hotel has an artsy and modern vibe, the staff was very friendly but sometimes a little too busy chatting amongst themselves instead of paying attention to guests, and not very knowledgeable. For example, asked about the staff regarding cost of trips to Keukenhof, and they did not know information and had to wait till the next morning for someone who knows about it to come in. Ordered a taxi with the hotel, the taxi driver has been waiting right next to us, but none of the staff knew they ordered a taxi. The room was big with big closets, had a king bed but somehow the pillows were small. Breakfast was included and buffet style, there was plenty of selection and food was good. Overall, if I had to pick, would choose Conservatorium over art'otel because of their excellent service.

Google AdSense announced a new mobile interface for those using mobile phones and other devices. Starting now, mobile user get a very different version of AdSense, instead of the standard "desktop" interface.
This new version contains the basic information like earnings for today, yesterday and current month. There are also quick navigation features for accessing common and previously saved custom reports.
The new design allows more accessibility for mobile users who do not have Flash capabilities on their devices. While this might seem like a nod to non-Android users, remember that the new Motorola Xoom,which has Android 3.0 installed, is also without Flash.
To use the new mobile interface, you need to be opted into the new AdSense interface announced last November. The AdSense team is quick to point out the new interface is only in beta, so use at your own discretion. If you use the new mobile interface and want to go back to the previous version, simply use the links provided at the bottom of the page.

Research opportunities for undergrads are plentiful at William & Mary, but that doesn't mean that all great research must happen in Williamsburg. In fact, sometimes students chase their curiosity to laboratories halfway across the world.
William & Mary Inquiry
Elizabeth Harbron has an automatic advantage over her colleagues in the chemistry department when it comes to recruiting students into their research labs: she works with chemicals that change color, light up and glow.
When the Spanish archivist Peio Monteano produced a 13th-century ceremonial on the coronation of English kings, Kimberly Bassett knew that this was an opportunity few other researchers let alone undergraduates ever get.
Real scientists wouldn't be caught dead with cookbook-style lab instructions ('Two tablespoons of baking soda plus two cups of vinegar equals foamy fun!').
William & Mary students have never met a stage they didn't like. The very first theater in America was built in Williamsburg in 1716, and in 1736, a group of William & Mary students put on the first student play in the colonies.
There's more to Williamsburg's history than fifes and three-cornered hats. The William & Mary community celebrated the 75th anniversary of the Kimball Theatre (formerly the Williamsburg Theatre), an old-fashioned single-screen beauty right in the heart of Duke of Gloucester (DoG) Street.

Apple festival should have decent weather
Published: Monday, August 27, 2007 at 9:39 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, August 27, 2007 at 10:55 p.m.
After weeks of sweltering heat, the N.C. Apple Festival weekend should bring cooler, more seasonal weather.
That's according to local weather guru Paul Speranza, who says the weekend should also be dry, provided a cool front approaching the area doesn't stall.
"If the front moves along, high pressure builds in and (with highs in the) high 70s, low 80s, very nice for first of September," he said. "If the front stalls out, every day there would be that opportunity for storms."
Normal highs for this time of year are about 81, far below the 90s the area has recently endured.
A front that passed through Sunday spawned a strong thunderstorm with wind gusts of 56 mph that knocked down trees and power lines, and dumped about 1 inch of rain in Hendersonville. Despite recent storms, the area remains in a severe drought with the rainfall deficit for the year approaching 1 foot.
The National Weather Service forecast through Wednesday calls for a 30 percent chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms with highs around 84 and lows around 64.
While the Weather Service was not calling for showers Thursday night and Friday, Speranza said that period would bring a better chance of showers as the next front passes through. He considered the threat real enough to delay a snow cone sale at his business, Speranza's Weather House at 100 Sixth Ave. E., until Saturday.
The business will be selling snow cones Saturday, Sunday and Monday to raise money to support the Hendersonville High School Band's visit to the Kennedy Center next spring. The band needs to raise about $900 for each of 100 students to make the trip, Speranza said.

Brad J. Ward is an online communciations coordinator at Butler University. Though he hails from a small academic institution, he's unveiled a whale of a problem going on at Facebook (read, don't skim, for the exciting conclusion).
As high school seniors across the country are being accepted into Universities for the Fall 2009 semester, groups for 2013 grads are popping up on the popular social network. There's just one problem. It seems that one Patrick Kelly of Plano Senior High School is planning on attending a bunch of colleges – 500 to be exact. For that is how many 2013 groups he has created.
Ward rightly points out that the big problem here is that Patrick Kelly likely represents a data collection company that could end up being lifelong "friends" of millions of incoming freshman each year.
They also control the administrative privileges for each group.
But Brad Ward didn't stop at just blogging about this problem. He's got people talking on Twitter, organizing via Google Docs, and submitting Flickr pics regarding the problem.
The effort has identified other names associated with the group squatting including Ron Tressler and Justin Gaither, and he even has a company suspect: College Prowler. What a fitting name!
He even found an ad by College Prowler seeking unpaid interns to set up all this, as Ward rightly deems it, "dirty work."
But get this: College Prowler responded by pulling the fake names that are associated with their company (Patrick Kelly was not, as it turns out) and pulling the administrative privileges. That is quite impressive. College Prowler says that they see social media as essential to their college guides business, but I think most of us would agree that they could go about social media in a different way.
Here's a solution: College Prowler could create a community around its brand of college guides by identifying their Facebook groups with their brand. The group could be "College Prowler's Guide to Butler University Class of 2013."
So, College Prowler, and others interested in using social media, check out these posts from Search Engine Watch and sister site ClickZ to learn how to truly leverage social media to maximize those marketing dollars (and time!):

Pipeline relocation to start Tuesday in San Juan
The city of San Juan Capistrano is pressing ahead with water and sewer line relocation efforts as the state's I-5/Ortega Highway interchange reconstruction project draws closer.
Part of the pipeline project is scheduled to start Tuesday and take a week to complete, according to the city. The city's contractor, Charles King Co., will move a water line that needs to be relocated before the $86.2 million interchange construction begins. That project will rebuild the Ortega Highway bridge and freeway on- and off-ramps.
The $1.7 million pipe relocation was approved Jan. 6 at a special City Council meeting. San Juan will receive $890,000 in reimbursement from the California Department of Transportation, which is spearheading the I-5/Ortega project. The council also approved a $157,291 agreement with RBF Consulting for management services associated with the pipeline move.
Work is scheduled for 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. weekdays at:
• Rancho Viejo Road, 200 feet north of the intersection with Ortega Highway
• Intersection of Ortega Highway and Los Cerritos Road
• Del Obispo Street, 400 feet south of the intersection with Ortega Highway
For more information, call Mike Smith, the city's project inspector, at 949-487-4311.
The city also will have to relocate sewer lines and install an additional water line to connect to the future Plaza Banderas Hotel downtown. The hotel developer, when selected, will have to front a portion of those costs as part of an agreement with the city. That contribution would be about $476,000.

This application is a continuation-in-part of our co-pending application Ser. No. 743,102, filed 6/10/85.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates in general to strut framing systems and more particularly to a non-metallic, corrosion resistant framing and mechanical support system for the processes of the corrosive industries.
2. Discussion of the Prior Art
Strut framing systems have been widely used in the U.S.A. as well as internationally for nearly fifty years. However, the advent of high technology manufacturing processes during the last decade has resulted in numerous requirements for more state-of-the-art mechanical support systems. Many attempts have been made by the historical suppliers of strut systems to meet the demands of new industries, but most attempts were based on the basic industry out of which the strut systems have developed. Various grades of stainless steel strut and fasteners have been developed and are available at extremely high costs. Plated and coated steel systems have been developed from galvanizing epoxy to PVC coatings. More recently, several fiberglass strut channels have been introduced, however, their struts are designed for metallic or metallic coated fastener systems.
The strut systems of the present invention are all non-metallic, corrosion resistant framing and mechanical supports for the processes of the corrosive industries. The present invention combines two plastics design and manufacturing methods to produce a mechanical support and attachment system using all non-metallic components.
The structural strut is a specially designed fiberglass pultruded shape incorporating the use of composite structure design with a highly efficient mechanical shape to produce the strongest and stiffest support for the fastener system. The fasteners are designed of high strength composite thermoplastics and are injection molded in two halves. Their shape allows attachment to the strut support without tools, and the position locking connection provides a permanent but adjustable locking support of the process piping or ducting.
Prior to the filing of the present invention, a preliminary patent search of the prior art was performed. The following patents were found and are listed below:
______________________________________U.S. Pat. No. Inventor Issue Date______________________________________3,088,702 Orenick, et al 5/7/633,527,432 Lytle 9/8/703,721,750 Countryman 3/20/733,913,187 Okuda 10/21/744,061,299 Kurosaki 12/6/774,371,137 Anscher 2/1/83______________________________________
Perhaps the patent of most interest from this group is U.S. Pat. No. 3,527,432 issued to Lytle. Lytle shows a longitudinal channel with retaining flange for holding clamping plates which are curved to accommodate pipe or tubing. The plates are hooked to the flanges in the channel. The ends adjacent to the curved portions of the clamping plates are formed into parallel flanges with registering holes to accommodate a threaded fastener so that the clamping plates can be tightened onto the pipe. To facilitate insertion of the plates over the pipe and into the channel, one of the clamping plates is provided with two opposite hanging hooks on opposite edges, and the other plate is provided with one hanging hook. The present invention differs in many respects from Lytle. The means of holding the bands of the present invention in the flanges of the channel is different; the means of fastening and holding the pipe or duct is different; also, the bands used in the present invention are much different than Lytle's plates both in structure and result. Further, Lytle does not contemplate use of his support system, in a corrosive application.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,721,750 issued to Countryman shows a plastic strapping fastener. It is much different than the present invention in structure and function. The other patents found in the search relate to the general area of fastening systems, but in applicant's opinion, either alone or in combination, do not disclose the key elements of applicant's invention as disclosed herein.
A patent that became a key reference to the parent of this application was by Clark (U.S. Pat. No. 3,226,069 issued 12/28/65). Applicant would like to point out a key and critical distinction between Clarke and their invention. It lies in the top portion of the support bands and more specifically in the contact between the flanges on the hangar and the flanges on the support element. Applicant is aware that merely changing Clarke's hangars and support element to thermoplastic and/or fiberglass would not result in patentability. If this were done, Clarke's invention duplicated in plastic and/or fiberglass would fail due to tensilve load concentrations at points in his anchors 26 and flanges 22. Clarke's system relies on point and line contact of the anchors 26 and flanges 22, and suggests the use of ear 26b if flanges 24 are rounded, and ear 26a if flanges are straight. (See Clarke, col 3, lines 9-18). In metal, this point and line contact would be acceptable and support the required weight, since metal has sufficient tensile strength to resist the tendency to bend the anchors 26 whether they are shaped as in 26a or 26b, and whether flanges 22 are rounded or straight. Stress concentration would occur in ear shape 26a at the point which the ear 26a meets the medial portion 26c, and in ear shape 26b similarly at the points where the ear 26b changes direction, and at its tip. In either case, flange 24 whether rounded or straight would experience tensile stress due to bending where the flange 24 meets the sides of support 10. Clarke's anchors 26 and flanges 24 are typical of what is conventionally available in the metal hangar art. This system if duplicated in plastic and/or fiberglass would fail when the conventionally required loads were placed upon it. A more comprehensive interface between the support element and hangar is needed, which is supplied by applicants' invention.
The present invention is a strut support system for piping, tubing or ducting which includes first, a structural support channel having a longitudinal slot. The support channel also has longitudinal flanges along the sides of the slot inwardly projecting toward the centerline of the support channel. The present invention also provides a pair of complemental composite thermoplastic support bands having a bottom portion which forms a natural curvature for cradling a pipe when the ends of the bands are engaged. The bands also have a top portion with two support members having distal flanges capable of engaging the longitudinal flanges of the slot in the support channel when the top portion of the bandsis disposed within the longitudinal slot of the support channel. The two support members of the top portion of the support bands are resilient and permit easy manipulation of the bands for insertion into the slot or for removal from the slot. The bottom portion of the bands has adjustable holding means for connecting and locking the support bands around a pipe. This adjustable holding means preferably includes a screw disposed in a housing connected to the bottom portion of one support band and a series of thread slots on the bottom portion of the other support band. The screw and threads are capable of engagement so that driving the screw adjusts the diameter of the natural curvature of the bottom portion of the support bands when the slotted end of the one support band is disposed and threadably engaged with the screw in the housing. A hex head is incorporated at either end of the screw, allowing the support bands to be adjusted from either side.
It was an object of the present invention, therefore, to provide a non-metallic, corrosion resistant framing and mechanical support system for pipes or ducts.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a highly efficient fastening system which allows attachment to the strut support without the use of tools.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a strut support system for use in corrosive application which is relatively inexpensive.
These and other objects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the attached drawings.
FIG. 1 is assembly application in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 2 is an elevation view of a support band of the present invention.
FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the support band and longitudinal channel partially in cross section in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 4 is an elevation view in cross section of the support band showing the adjusting means.
Referring to the FIG. 1, a pair of fiberglass channels 2 are shown. Channels 2 have longitudinal slots generally referred to as 4 and a pair of longitudinal flanges 6a and 6b. Flanges 6a and 6b project inwardly toward the center line of channel 2. Channel 2 is considered to be a structural support element for the entire strut system. Referring to FIG. 2, composite thermoplastic pipe supporting band generally designated as 7 is shown. Pipe supporting band 7 is comprised of a pair of supporting bands 8a and 8b used in the strut support system of the present invention. The complemental nature of this pair of support bands will be described subsequently.
Each of the pair of support bands 8a and 8b has a top portion, designated as 10a and 10b with two support members 12a and 12b. The support members 12a and 12b of support bands 8a and 8b have a pair of distal flanges 14a and 14b extending therefrom. The flanges 14a and 14b are used to engage the flanges 6a and 6b of the channel 2 when the strut system is in operation as shown best in FIG. 3. The top portions of each support band 8a and 8b has a web 15 with a hole 17. The support bands 8a and 8b also have bottom portions generally designated as 16a and 16b. The bottom portion 16a and 16b of the support bands 8a and 8b have a natural complemental curvature to allow cradling of a pipe (not shown) when the ends of support band 8 are engaged. The bottom portion 16a of the support band 8a has a housing 13 with a screw 20 disposed therein. The bottom portion 16b of the other support band 8b has a series of thread slots designated as 22 (see FIG. 4) capable of threadable engagement with the threads 24 of screw 20. The housing 13 is adapted to receive the slots 22 of support band 8b when locking and tightening of the support system is desired during operation. A hex 26 is molded on the end of screw 20 to allow adjustment of the support bands from the end opposite the head of screw 20.
In operation, the longitudinal channel 2 is appropriately hung in place, being supported to a ceiling (not shown) or the like by suitable conventional means. Each of the support bands 8a and 8b are manipulated by hand so that flanges 14a and 14b of top portion 10 of the support bands 8a and 8b are made to engage with flanges 6a and 6b of channel 2. A pipe to be supported is placed between the pair of bands 8a and 8b so that the curvature of the band 8a containing the bolt 20 and housing 18 is directed toward the curvature of band 8b containing the slots 22. The bottom portion of the band 8b is then pushed through the housing 18 contained on the other band 8a until the slots 2 engage threads 24. The pair of bands 8a and 8b can now be finally adjusted by driving the screw 20 with a screwdriver (not shown) or the like until the desired tightness around the pipe is achieved. Alternatively, hex 26 can be driven to achieve the desired adjustment. The hex 26 gives the support system added flexibility with respect to access of an operator in adjusting the system. The strut system can be used with any size pipe or ducting by increasing or decreasing the size of the channel 2 and the support bands 8a and 8b.
Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the engagement of flanges 14a and 14b, and channel 2, as shown in that figure can be described. From FIG. 2 it should be noted initially that flanges 14a and 14b have side portion 28a and 28b, undersides 30a and 30b, and rounded bottom edges 32a and 32b. From FIG. 3, longitudinal flanges 6a and 6b have rounded edges 34a and 34b. The interior surfaces 36a and 36b of flanges 6a and 6b have rounded portions 38a and 38b where the flanges 6a and 6b meet the sides 40a and 40b of channel 2. When flanges 14a and 14b engage 6a and 6b, substantially full and interlocking contact occurs (as shown in FIG. 3) between the side portion 28a and 28b of the distal flanges 14a and 14b, and the sides 40a and 40b of the channel 2. This contact or engagement also includes the undersides 30a and 30b of flanges 14a and 14b, including rounded edges 32a and 32b and the interior surfaces 36a and 36b of flanges 6a and 6b including rounded portions 38a and 38b, and rounded edges 34a and 34b. The radii of rounded edges 32a, 32b and 34a, 34b will depend on the size of pipe to be supported.
As an alternative to web 15, a cross element (not shown) could be used. This element would extend between the distal flanges 14a and 14b. In operation in very tight spaces, web 15 or the cross element can be severed allowing easier manipulation of the flanges 14a and 14b into engagement with flanges 6a and 6b.
The invention may be embodied in other forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. The present embodiments are therefore to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.

What Can You Use to Wipe Away Hate?
Dear Mexican: I was in a taco shop in the bathroom stall and saw your racist dribble in La Prensa San Diego (the paper was being used as ass wipe, I guess). Whatever you say or write will always be foreshadowed by the fact that you and all the dark-skinned Mexis are mosca en la leche — that will never change. And for you to steal the statement "gentle readers" from Miss Manners shows just how unauthentic and uncreative you are. But we realize you are a Mexi; stealing anything is embedded in the genetic code of your dirty culture. Roger Hedgecock's Biggest Fan
Dear Gabacho: Your mom didn't teach you to wipe properly; you just smeared this column with your intellectual caca. And Judith Martin didn't invent the "gentle readers" shtick. Hell, Jonathan Swift was dropping that couplet in Gulliver's Travels. I realize you're a gabacho: Getting basic history and insults wrong is embedded in the genetic code of that raza's more pendejo members.
Let me start by telling you that, like yourself, I'm a proud mexicana, and how glad I am that someone educated like you is trying to educate Know Nothings about things they think they know. My concern is this: I am a DREAMer, and I have come across so many stupid people who think they know what's best for us. I have heard that it's never gonna pass, that we're just wasting our time, blah blah blah! What can I say to these Know Nothings to make them understand that all we're asking for is a chance at what many of them have refused: a chance to go to college and have a good paying job, and/or a chance to serve in the military?
An Orgullosa DREAMer Mexicana
Dear Proud Mexican DREAMer: Actually, I'm a mexicano, not a mexicana — not that there's anything wrong with that! As for what you can tell Know Nothings to make them understand your situation ... they never will. Instead, tell them "I told you so" by showing all the accomplishments undocumented youth have notched — college degrees, businesses, making your plight a national issue so big that President Obama has issued a stay on any deportations for ustedes (which is at least a start) — while supposedly powerless. Are these not the types of Americans we want? If you're supposed to make lemonade when life throws you lemons, DREAMers have created a taquiza out of nothing — and if Know Nothings want to ignore and demonize that, then they deserve the beautiful half-Mexican grandchild that's coming their way pronto.

As the other reviewer said, be sure to sanitize - I use cleaning wipes rather than soak them in water since some items (like the "milk" in a cup) have a small hole where water could get trapped inside.
I would gladly buy this again, it's a really durable and fun set. My kids still enjoy playing with it. Thank goodness for toys like this that don't need batteries!!
The bologna, cheese, and lettuce are all rubbery, so they have realistic feel. In general, this food looks really realistic. I love the ice cream cone! The milk in the glass doesn't come out. Great play food.
By the way, I contacted Learning Resources about the safety of their plastic and this is their response.
"We take safety very seriously and all of our products meet or exceed safety standards. I am writing to assure you that all our product meets Learning Resources high standards for toy safety. They do NOT contain phthalates or lead and are made of PVC and low density polyethylene. They do not contain BPA and is made with PVC plastics.
We take safety very for all of our children's products and toys are evaluated against the standards set forth by the Consumer Products Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA). This includes testing for certain phthalates (a plasticizer used to make plastic soft), lead in paint, lead in substrate and compliance with the testing guidelines set forth by ASTM F-963."
The only complaint I have about the Learning Resources play food is that the set we bought (the sandwich and burger in a blue shopping basket) is that the "milk" slips out of the "glass." We will be Super-Gluing the "milk" to the glass soon.
Overall, very happy with the play food, and our two year old son loves making us lunch!

Star Wars 3D Blu-ray coming spring
Pocket-lint sources at the Panasonic conference in Hamburg tell us that Star Wars is headed to Blu-ray in 3D this spring. Rather unsurprisingly, following the film's 3D cinema release, Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace will be available to pick up on 3D Blu-ray. What is surprising, however, is that it will be on such a fast turnaround after the box office release.
No word yet on whether the originals will be making their way into 3D 1080p goodness, but we've heard strong hints that the rest of the new films will also be released after their cinematic debuts. Good stuff for those who just shelled out for the new Blu-ray boxset. Not.
Panasonic has an ongoing relationship with the Star Wars movie franchise, bundling the films with its Blu-ray players back in 2011. The consumer electronics manufacturer will be bringing Episode 1 to Blu-ray in spring just the same.
As the Star Wars movies are set to come out in 3D yearly in order, it is entirely plausible that the 3D Blu-rays will do similar.
Time to get ourselves a new telly. We thought the classic series couldn't look much better than the recent Blu-ray release. Who knows what it will look like in 3D at home?
Like the sound of the Star Wars 3D Blu-ray? Let us know in the comments below...

Seasoned professionals with very creative material as well as hysterical adl libs. It's hard not to want to compare comedians but Laurie reminded me somewhat of Chelsea Handler. The laughter created by both entertainers had me feeling very good on the way home. If they return I will definitely be in the house.

I love comedy, and I thought Laurie Kilmartin was brilliant--she was very original, hysterically funny, and she worked the audience well.
Deon Cole, on the other hand, was dreadful, and for my money, one of the worst comedians I have ever seen....continued

A great duo, with quite different styles. Deon was much better in person than in the clips I'd seen on YouTube had led me to expect; Laurie was excellent both in person and on video.

So I'm using static class members so I can share data between class methods and static methods of the same class (there will only be 1 instantiation of the class). I understand this fine, but I'm just wondering when the static members get initialized? Is it on import? On the first use of the class? Because I'm going to be calling the static members of this class from more than 1 module (therefore more than 1 import statement). Will all the modules accessing the static methods share the same static data members? And if my main client deletes the instance of my class, and then recreates it (without terminating altogether or re-importing stuff), will my data members be preserved?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
They will be initialized at class definition time, which will happen at import time if you are importing the class as part of a module. This assuming a "static" class member definition style like this:
Note that, this being a static class member, there is no need to instantiate the class.
The import statement will execute the contents of a module exactly once, no matter how many times or where it is executed.
Yes, the static members will be shared by any code accessing them.
Yes, the static members of a class will be preserved if you delete an object whose type is that class:

Caribbean Princess Cruise Review by michig: Great time in New England & Canada
Overall Member Rating
Great time in New England & Canada
Destination: Canada & New England
Embarkation: New York (Manhattan)
Carribean Princess was again worth sailing with Princess Cruises.
The ship reflected the high standard we were used from previous cruises.
We were a little bid astonished that opening hours of Horizon Court were changed - closing by 24 o clock.
The entertainment programme could have been a little bid better - the piano man was "solala", the dance company seemd a bid tired.
Overall the ship was great, the service friendly, the food delicious, everything clean ...
Regarding the Ports:
- Halifax: don´t book any hop-on/hop-off tour ... the town is small - you can easily walk to every destination! Peggy´s Cove instead is a tour worth!
- Saint John: we had foggy weather - unfortunately - but a hop-on/hop-off is the money worth (gets you to the reversing rapids, ....)
- Bar Harbour: (a tender port) - the greatest Port on our cruise ;-)) ... a great town - with a wonderful surrounding (Acadia National Park) - take More either a tour of Acadia Natinoal Park with the free bus provided in town or book a tour with Acadia National Park Tours (which we did)
- Boston: just buy tickets from the port to the city - they take you directly to the city center - you can easily walk "freedom trail" up and down - and have a little time for browsing and shopping at Quincy Market - unfortunately there isn´t much more time for other actions ;-((
- Newport (a tender-port): you have to walk the cliff-walk !! Just take the yellow public bus to the final stop and then enjoy the scenery. Plan approx 3 hours for the complete way - and take good shoes (the path is very "rocky" in some parts)
- New York: there is nothing to add to this great City ,-)) Less

We've placed ads in newspapers on two occasions and have gone through an Au Pair program twice. This has been our best experience by far!
I had an emergency situation and had a nanny sent over for the following day. I am so pleased with the service provided by Morningside Nannies. My son immediately fell in love with the nanny assigned to us. We couldn't be happier.
Thank you so much. I would recommend your company to absolutely everyone in need of help. You always asked questions to ensure proper performance.
I am delighted with the outcome, and enjoyed the process.
I described the person I wanted and that's what you found for me. Thank you.
Morningside Nannies was outstanding. The process was stress free and the caliber of applicants was far superior to that of other agencies. Morningside Nannies was thorough in their review and timely presentation of candidates.
I liked the fact that you screened the candidates before sending them to us, rather than sending the candidate to me before I knew anything about them, like happened with (name withheld), your competition.
The quality of candidates was very good. It was a difficult decision but Amy has proven to be a wonderful choice. We could not have found a better person. I would recommend your services to anyone looking for a nanny.
We used two other services and an online service. Morningside Nannies had the most highly qualified candidates, one of whom we selected.
Originally, I tried to find a nanny on my own and it took me much, much longer and only half of them spoke English. I had to do my own background checks. Morningside Nannies made it much easier, faster and more efficient.
Morningside Nannies is pleased to present a sampling of our current job opportunities. If any of these positions interest you, please register with Morningside Nannies to begin your job search or contact a placement specialist by calling (713) 526-3989.

According to her, Brown is unhappy in his marriage and was in desperate need of love and affection that he reportedly wasn't receiving from Monica. Well Monica hasn't publicly addressed the situation other than being seen without her wedding ring but Shannon finally broke his silence.

Windows Phone 8.1 includes Windows RT app compatibility, iCloud support
Developers cough that it will reach all Windows Phone 8 devices
SOFTWARE HOUSE Microsoft has started rolling out Windows Phone 8.1 to developers, and they have been quick to reveal what we can expect from the update.
Windows Phone developers have flocked to Reddit to detail the update within an inch of its life, revealing about all there is to know about the next software iteration before a beta version is released to developers in April.
Chief among Windows Phone 8.1's features is support for Windows RT apps, with the SDK offering "Universal App" support with templates to build both Windows Store and Windows Phone Store apps from the same shared HTML and Javascript code.
A loose-lipped developer who claims to create "high profile" apps for the mobile operating system explained on Reddit that this likely points towards Microsoft merging Windows Phone and Windows RT, with apps now easy to create for both.
Developers have noted that Windows Phone 8.1 now includes an iCloud option in Settings, which means it likely will support iCloud accounts to further lure customers away from iOS. VPN support is also included and Microsoft's rebrand of Skydrive to Onedrive is obvious in the SDK, while a new feature has been introduced that likely will allow Windows Phone users to change the default messaging app.
Developers have also revealed that Windows Phone 8.1 will be available to all Windows Phone 8 devices, but there's no word yet on a release date.
That's not all that's new. According to the lengthy Reddit thread, multitasking has been tweaked to look more like that in Windows RT, there's support to install apps to an SD card, and there are three new camera modes and a Battery Power Sense app that shows which apps are using the most battery life.
Perhaps most interestingly, developers have noted that Facebook integration seems to have been removed in the update, and there's no sign of Microsoft's mooted Cortana voice assistant.
Microsoft has yet to comment on the rumours. µ

text: Let's Do the Math on "Gluten-Free"Hamilton Nolan2/18/14 9:22amFiled to: scamsfoodtrendwatchglutengluten freebullshithealthusa85214EditInvite manuallyPromoteDismissUndismissHideShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink The food industry has a generally glum outlook for sales in the coming year. But there is a bright spot: the portion of Americans buying gluten-free food has more than doubled in the past three years. Why? The answer, of course, is "Because most Americans are board-certified gastroenterologists." Let's do the gluten math: The portion of U.S. households reporting purchases of gluten-free food products last year: 11% Advertisement Estimated prevalence of celiac disease in the U.S. via a 2012 study: 0.71% Portion of shoppers who bought gluten-free products who said they bought them due to celiac disease, in a 2013 survey: 2% Sponsored Portion of shoppers who said they bought gluten-free products "because they think they're more healthful": 59% Portion of Americans who know what they fuck they're talking about on this issue: 0.00005% It is the ignorance and gullibility of Americans that keeps the world's greatest economy going.
