Day 72 - Avignon of Popes and Palaces
After getting use to the sound of hoot owls in the night we slept in until 8:00am this morning. We awoke to a low cloud level and cool temperatures but the promise of a sunny day lay ahead. After a pot of coffee (loved that after a month of espressos) and a light breakfast, we took a walk through the village of Noves.
Noves is is a very small village with only a few hundred inhabitants. At one time there were ramparts around the town but only a few remain along with a few ...
Day 71 - Provence Provincial
... a hundred years old. Check out the photos on the website of our cottage as we have no photos today. This location would be great for a family gathering, albeit a bit far to go.

Arrived in Arles!
... toll booth. We were the lucky first car through, they just gave us the once over and off we went. A quick pit stop and an awesome roadside coffee and meat and cheese French sandwich, and our tanks were full for the rest of the drive. Into Arles. We are staying right across from the Roman Coliseum, and I mean "right" . See the photo.... We strolled around a bit but tomorrow will be the big look see day. We went down the street to a wonderful ...
St Remy-de-Provence
... help but admire the accuracy of the cuts in the stone blocks and the perfection in the way the whole thing is fitted together. I doubt they could do better today.... So after we'd "done " the Pont du Gard, we then headed for Le Baux en Provence where there was an art/light show called Les Carrieres de Lumieres, and Treas particularly wanted to see this... So, naturally, we went.... It was really only a hop, step and a jump away, maybe 20 or 30km away, and is really ...
First day exploring Avignon
... this is France. Plus the tourism information centre didn't open until 10am and I needed to get my city map. I walked into town, it's about 2.5km and it was so quiet and peaceful. I crossed the Rhone and took some good photos, there was a bolle game (like boche/bowls) but french style happening in the park just below the bridge. The sun was out and the breeze a little fresh but I knew it was going to be a beautiful warm day. I made my way to have ...

Monetarism is hard to define because it is not the doctrine of a school that is sharply differentiated from the rival Keynesian and new classical schools. While some ecconomists are clearly monetarists, others take intermediate positions that make it more or less arbitrary whether to call them monetarists. The basic theoretical propositions of monetarism, that changes in the quantity of money (defined as currency plus at least checkable deposits) play the central role in the determination of nominal income. differs only in degree from the view held by most Keynesians that changes in th~e quantity of money are a major (and in the long run the dominant) determinant of changes in nominal income. There is little disagreement between Keynesians, monetarists and new clac+A economists about long run equilibrium. But while new classical economists think that this equilibrium is reached rapidly, and Keynesians think it is reached slowly, monetarists take an intermediate position. That is an important difference because many policy questions relate to this intermediate run. To be sure, much of the monetarist research strategy focuses on changes in the sdpply of and demand for money, while the Keynesian strategy is to look also at the propensity to consume, the marginal efficiency of investment, government expenditures and net exports. But this difference relates only to the way of proceeding with research, and not directly to how the economy functions. There is greater disagreement on policy. Some monetarists agree with K~ynesians, that - in principle - fiscal policy can have a significant effect on nominal income, but deny that in practice it has a large effect. Others deny that even in principle fiscal policy has a significant effect on income. While hard-core monetarists believe that the money supply should grow at a fixed rate, other merely want the growth rate of money to be stable, a position not so different from that of some Keynesians who oppose %ne-tuning""

Now, an eclectic mix of suburban dads and ex-hoodlums known as the Black Monday Society are patrolling Salt Lake City's crime-strewn thoroughfares. Unlike most spandex-clad homegrown heroes, members of the Black Monday Society dress like Slipknot. Also, the group has antiheroes amongst its ranks, such as the former gang member Fool King and a man known only as "Assylum": Advertisement Advertisement The hero "Assylum," who wears a black head mask with a grotesque painted on smile, says he came from a sorted [sic] past. He says he sought out drug users who owed money. "If you got so much in drugs and didn't pay your money, I was the dude that showed up at 3 in the morning and beat you until you got the money," he says.My favorite though is Professor Midnight, whose superpower is total anonymity — nobody knows his real name! Despite carrying tasers and pepper spray, The Black Monday Society aren't vigilantes.

The Reason for My Hope
Full Product Description
America's Evangelist presents his masterwork.Who would refuse rescue? This is the question Billy Graham asks throughout this book. The answer is sometimes surprising because there are actually people who refuse to be saved, even if they are in a hopeless situation. Why? Each chapter draws the reader in by posing questions for contemplation using relevant illustrations about what the world thinks in contrast to what the Bible says. As Mr. Graham has expressed for decades, his purpose is to engage the reader in considering his or her life in light of the here and now and the hereafter. Who would refuse rescue from a plane crash, a sinking boat, an automobile fire, or an assassin's bullet? True accounts are given that cause readers to ask what they think and how they would respond to similar experiences and to ultimately bring them to life's most important question.In what could be his final book, Billy Graham presents the core message that has guided his life and calling for more than 70 years. Filled with new stories and timeless truth, Graham once again calls the world back to its spiritual priority as only he can. The book coincides with a massive campaign of the same name by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association that will mobilize millions of people in the United States to invite friends and neighbors into their homes to hear the message of Jesus Christ through customized video and a new message from Mr. Graham.
The Reason for My Hope by Billy Graham was published by Cengage Learning, Inc in October 2013 and is our 42795th best seller. The ISBN for The Reason for My Hope is 9781410461612.

The CMPSR continues to provide a resource for high quality collection and analysis of pharmacokinetic specimens. However, the CMPSR has greatly expanded to include collection, processing and analysis of clinical specimens for translational/correlative and pharmacodynamic studies associated with the Center's clinical trials program. Additional objectives of the CMPSR are to: 1) Provide a resource for high-quality collection, processing and analysis of clinical specimens for pharmacokinetic and correlative studies;2) Develop translational components for investigator-initiated clinical trials;and 3) Identify and validate biomarkers and molecular signatures that are predictive of response to therapy and investigate drug activity, pharmacodynamic responses and mechanisms of acquired or innate resistance. Further, the CMPSR provides UC Davis clinical investigators a comprehensive resource for clinical trial protocol development, including standardized and/or trial-specific language for specimen collection, and development of correlative study scientific components. It also provides services for preclinical modeling and biologic investigations of novel agents and therapeutic combinations that can serve as rationale for study development. Resource personnel work closely with the CTSU and clinical trial investigators to incorporate comprehensive and meaningful correlative and pharmacokinetic components into each trial. Users of the CMPSR are primarily UC Davis Cancer Center clinical investigators developing clinical trials. The CMPSR involvement in a clinical trial may range from the collection and shipping of UCD patient blood specimens enrolled on a cooperative group study, to broader roles including development and implementation of specialized specimen collection procedures and novel assays, comprehensive molecular correlative analysis of trial specimens and preclinical in vitro or in vivo modeling to generate drug mechanism hypotheses that can be tested in the clinic. These efforts often include significant CMPSR input during trial protocol development. The CMPSR also services as a bridge between clinical investigators with other Shared Resources.
This resource handles biological specimens used to understand how cancer therapies work, how cancers can be detected, how the body processes drugs, and how various combinations of therapies can be more or less effective. The specimens and analytical studies are carried out in conjunction, for the most part, with cancer clinical trials. Its results are important to improving options for treating different types of cancers.

Taliesin's Battle Of The Trees
I have set Taliesin's Battle Of The Trees within two other pieces, firstly Tacitus' report of the Roman invasion of the Druid island of Angelsey, followed by another poem from those by Taliesin which had been mixed in with The Battle of The Trees in a method of concealment to hide the poems meaning from those without understanding.
The Battle Of The Trees / Cad Goddeu ;
The tops of the beech tree have sprouted of late,
are changed and renewed from their withered state.
When the beech prospers, through spells and litanies,
the oak tops entangle, there is hope for the trees.
I have plundered the fern, through all secrets I spy.
Old Math ap Mathonwy knew no more than I.
For with nine sorts of faculty God has gifted me,
I am fruit of fruits gathered from nine sorts of tree--
Plum, quince, whortle, mulberry, raspberry, pear,
Black cherry and white, with the sorb in me share.
From my seat at Caer Fefynedd (Kire Fev-Un-eThh), a city that is strong,
I watched the trees and green things hastening along.
Retreating from happiness they would fein be set
In forms of the chief letters of the alphabet.
Wayfarers wander, warriors are dismayed,
at the renewal of conflicts such as Gwydion made.
Under the root of the tongue, a fight most dread,
and another raging, behind, in the head.
The alders in the front line began the affray.
Will and rowan tree were tardy in array.
The holly, dark green, made a resolute stand;
He is armed with many spear points wounding the hand.
With foot beat of the swift oak heaven and earth rung;
"Stout Guardian of the Door", his name in every tongue.
Great was the gorse in battle, and the ivy at his prime;
The hazel was arbiter at this charmed time.
Uncouth and savage was the fir, cruel the ash tree--
Turns not aside a foot breadth, straight at the heart runs he.
The birch, though very noble, armed himself but late;
A sign not of cowardice but of high estate.
The heath gave consolation to the tail spent folk
The long enduring poplars in battle much broke.
Some of them were cast away on the field of fright
Because of holes torn in them by the enemy's might.
Very wrathful was the vine whose henchmen are the elms;
I exalt him mightily to rulers of realms.
Strong chieftains were the blackthorn with his ill fruit,
The unbeloved whitethorn who wears the same suit.
The swift pursuing reed, the broom with his broad,
And the furse but ill-behaved until he is subdued.
The dower scattering yew stood glum at the fight's fringe,
With the elder slow to burn amid fires that singe.
And the blessed wild apple laughing in pride
And the Borchan of Maeldrew, by the rock slide.
In shelter linger privet and woodbine,
Inexperienced in warfare, and the courtly pine.
But I, although slighted because I was not big,
Fought, trees, in your array on the field of Goddeu Brig.
translation from Robert Graves book ''The White Goddess;''
Calligraphy by Josie Brown, allowed here under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported
The Book of Taliesin dates from the 14th C. and collected 56 of the oldest poems in Welsh, those attributed to the 6th C. poet Taliesin would have been composed in the Cumbric dialect of the north. The manuscript preserves a few hymns, a small collection of elegies and also enigmatic poems such as The Battle of Trees and The Spoils of Annwfn, in which the poet claims to have sailed to another world with King Arthur and his warriors.
The Battle of the Trees poem itself, whilst currently "pied" with approximately four other poems, is set during a war between Arawn King of Annwfn or the Underworld, and Amaethon a ploughman. This war is prompted by the latter's theft of three magical creatures from the underworld, a dog who was the guardian of the secret, a white roebuck who hides the secret, and a lapwing who disguises the secret.
Regarding the secret powers possessed by these otherwordly creatures, it is said in the Triads:
there are three primary essentials of genius;
an eye that can see nature, a heart that can feel nature, and a boldness that dares follow it.
Druids taught in Triads or groups of three, which embodied the traditional Laws, Customs, and Wisdoms, of the ancient Celtic people, such as "Truth in heart, strength in arm, honesty in speech." or "Three things not easily restrained, the flow of a torrent, the flight of an arrow, and the tongue of a fool.''
The poem famously details the legendary Gwydion's account of the trees of the forest which he enchanted to fight as his army against Arawan.
Within the ranks of Arawn's forces were a number of mighty warriors, and one of these was invincible as long as his name remained a secret.
Gwydion the enchanter rightly guessed the secret name and won the battle saying these words:
Sure-hoofed my spurred horse,
On your shield Alder sprigs,
Bran is your name, Bran of the branches.
Sure-hoofed my horse of war,
On your hand are sprigs of Alder,
Bran you are, by the branch you bear.
However as Robert Graves explores in his book 'The White Goddess' the poem is particularly notable for its striking and enigmatic symbolism and the wide variety of interpretations this has occasioned.
Graves suggests that the trees in this poem correspond to the ancient Ogham alphabet, in which each alphabetic character represents a specific musical note, seasonal cycle, mythological tale and deity.
This method of association was a teaching aid in the letters and the trees associated with each, and its use in this poem was a poetic plea for the continuance of the use and teaching of this alphabet;
''This alphabet utilized thirteen consantants and five vowels. The consantants form the thirteen months of the annual cycle, while the vowels set forth the five year cycle of this Celtic calender. The letters/trees within the poem are not set in their proper order, I believe, in a further attempt to "encode" the information given in the poem so that only a person versed in this alphabet could utilize it.'' Robert Graves.
Each tree had a meaning and significance of its own, and Gwydion guessed Bran's name by the Alder branch Bran carried, the Alder being one of Bran's prime symbols.
Graves thus argued that the original poet had concealed Druidic secrets about an older matriarchal Celtic religion for fear of censure from Christian authorities, that Arawn and Bran were names for the same underworld god and that the battle was probably not physical but rather a struggle of wits and scholarship: Gwydion's forces could only be defeated if the name of his companion, Lady Achren ("Trees"), was guessed, and Arawn's host only if Bran's name was guessed.

Looking forward for this new project! I have always been into Celtic Tree Lore...
Keep me in the loop!
Peace and Light ☼
I am also looking forward to this project. I'm inclined to agree with Graves on this. So many of the ancient ways are hidden in myth, legend and poetry. It's an exciting endeavour to peel back the layers and find new treasures beneath.ReplyDelete
Unfortunately, I have never found a translation that does justice to the subtleties of the original.

Read reviews from past Contiki travelers.
Traveled with my husband and in laws. I've done the Hotels only trips before with Contiki so I wasn't totally sure what to expect with the contiki stop overs and cabins. I can say that everything was adequate for the price. The cabins were fine for sleeping in and getting ready even if some of the showers were questionable. Some of the camp grounds were pretty rustic but all had a fun bar area with cheap drinks. All of the optional parties at the camp grounds and stop overs are so fun, just go with it and get into the spirit. There was no air conditioning at the cabins or stop over Chateau so the only thing I would recommend is to go during the months that are not as hot as August because it was super warm. Other than that everything was fine. The hotels and hostels were adequate as well and my guide always made sure to put me with my chosen bunk mates. Make sure you pack bed bug spray and regular bug spray for you body just to be safe. This can be an issue with any accomodation in Europe...especially budget ones. We sprayed all our mattresses and our cabins and didn't really have an issue. Do your research and be prepared! Sometimes things change so be flexible as well...this isn't a tour for rigid people who can't go with the flow. They do adhere to the weight limit for your bags so be aware of that. If you are looking for a relaxing trip this isn't the one for you. This trip is designed to give you a taste of each place so you won't be able to explore until your heart's content. You have to adhere to times of when to leave and such. We saw SO much in a short amount of time but be aware this comes with late nights and early mornings. You WILL have some long days on the coach but you'll likely spend them sleeping so I didn't have a problem with it. You will definitely have a lack of sleep on this trip but it is all worth it. All of the optionals were worth it in my opinion, especially the group dinners. If you want to skip one I'd say you can not do the bike ride or water bikes in Amsterdam but it was okay. Breakfasts are okay (typical European breakfasts) and I thought most the dinners were good. Our Tour Guide and Driver, Marine and Luce were absolutely awesome and really made the trip enjoyable for us all. Knowledgeable and fun, we couldn't have done it without them. I miss them actually! Overall, this was a great trip for what we saw for the price and we met a lot of new friends. I wish I was back on this trip now. If you can handle the fast pace and want to see alot, DO IT. Travel now while you can and make it happen.
The optionals were amazing! The view from zip lining was breathtaking and absolutely incredible! All the lakes we visited and saw were beautiful and stunning. The Pyramid lake and lake Patricia were surprises for us, and in all honestly, no picture could do those lakes justice. Jaw dropping! The Rockies too! Definitely plan on returning in the winter to hit those slopes, but those mountains, gorgeous! All the accommodations we good and comfortable. The crew, tour manager Alex and bus driver Steve, were wonderful! Super fun and full of passion for their jobs. I would recommend this trip to everyone and I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat! Definitely exceeded my expectations!!
I had an amazing time on my first Contiki tour. Craig (my tour manager) and Marcus (bus driver) were on top of everything every single day. From Day One, I felt comfortable and excited to see what each day would hold. From the history of Boston to Amish farm visits to wild jet boat rides, this trip has it all. And even though it was sad to leave everyone at the end, I know that friendships were made to last for a reason (with that reason being that you can't go through such epic adventures without amazing people by your side).
I could go on and on forever about how awesome this tour was, but I don't want to ramble. In case you're on the fence about this: I read countless online reviews of different tour companies, since it is a big investment, and I read mixed reviews about Contiki. I will tell you, my trip was incredible. My tour guide was on top of her game and knew a LOT about European history and what to do in certain situations, etiquette, etc. (I'm from the USA). The people I met were amazing, I'll never forget them. Here's another thing I'll clear up: I was 26 when I went on the tour, I was worried i'd be surrounded by a bunch of immature 18 year olds. There were people spanning the entire Contiki age range from 18 right up to 35. If you're not a huge partier, don't worry. You can literally make this trip into whatever you want...if you want to club every night, you can. If you want to relax after a day of touring, you can do that too. We had pretty serious partiers, and we also had serious Christians if that tells you anything about the "party" level. You can do whatever you want, there's something for everyone. If you're a snob, and want only the fanciest food and hotels, maybe you should look at a different company. I was happy with the food and accommodations, but we had a few people on our tour who scoffed at some things. Not my style though...who spends that much time in the hotel anyway? To sum up: I haven't been paid by Contiki or anything, and I'd say GO FOR IT! This trip/company is awesome. I'm currently on here planning my next trip.
I went on the road to Athens plus Greek island hopping as my first overseas adventure. I was extremely excited and scared as I had no idea what I was in for.
It was the most amazing experience so far!
I not only got to experience all the cultures and party hot spots, but I have made friends for life, and 2 years later I am still in close contact with many of my tour friends.
I did almost every extra and the only ones I wouldn't recommend doing is walking tours in the middle of summer. Although it is a great way to explore and get to know the area, you are also very limited and it does get a bit boring at times.
I would always recommend going on the pub crawls as they get you into some amazing locations and it's the best way to get to know your tour. And you are also allowed o venture off on your own but it's a great start to the night.
Also the Contiki cough is a true thing, so be prepared to get sick at some point.
But it's so totally worth it!!
What a huge 45 days with a great tour team and people. I've written a blog about my experience so if you're crawling the internet like i did before my travels, this pretty much covers off what you get up to on the Ultimate European. Feel free to ask me any questions... Enjoy!
This was my first contiki and it was awesome! I went alone but made friends on my tour quickly, everyone was very friendly. The tour had the perfect mix of history /cultural experiences, shopping and nightlife. Ish was our tour guide and he was really helpful and made sure everyone had a great time. The biggest highlights for me were climbing Teotihuacan's pyramids, swimming in the Ik kil cenote, visiting chichen itza, shopping and walking around in Merida and the catamaran/snorkelling optional I did in Cancun? I'd definitely recommend this tour or the Mexican grande tour which this one links up with. The people who were doing grande all said it was awesome.
I can honestly say this was one of the best experiences of my life. the trip manager Jake was amazing. very knowledgable and friendly and because of him i will book contiki again :) the time spent in each city was spectacular. you get a feel for what each city has to offer. the group dynamic was super fun. I now have 38 new friends that i will remember for a life time. some of the best parts was getting to know everyone and who they are on the inside.
i'd say the only small part that can be improved upon is the transition from london to paris. it would be better to take the eurostar train for 3hrs instead of traveling the whole day to Paris, but still an amazing time regardless.
I planned this trip with my boyfriend and I was really nervous on what to expect from Contiki, but it ended up being the most amazing two weeks of my life! We got to see so much in the time we had. If it weren't for our tour manager, I definitely could not have gotten around the cities with ease and would have missed out on a lot. Areti and O.J. made this trip stress-free and amazing. Best tour manager and driver by far. It may seem crazy to go on a trip with up to 50 other people, but these people become your family and help you create memories that will stay with you for a lifetime. The hotels were comfortable and even though they are not extravagant, you're only sleeping there and spending most of your time out in the cities! I recommend doing every single ME Time Optional because it was the best decision I ever made on this trip. You're already on the trip so make the most out of it! Seeing the Eiffel Tower and the Colosseum in person is a moment I'll never forget. People ask me what my favorite place was and I cannot give a solid answer. This whole trip was absolutely amazing..it's so amazing that you're so bummed to be back home! If you're thinking about doing this trip..stop thinking and book it now! Now I understand Contiki's #noregrets..because you will not regret it!
This trip was simply incredible! I traveled solo and had the best time. I
t was very full on though, they really do mean high energy, honestly not a lot of time to chill out and do your own thing, but in saying that we saw so much in such a short period of time!! So worth it!
Our tour guide Marine and driver Chico were bloody brilliant too, they were both such good fun and always ready to have a laugh.
But something you should be prepared for is bed bugs, you will get them, its like the contiki cough. Just be prepared, take a cream over with you and try not to let your luggage touch the beds and put your sleeping bag in a plastic bag after using it. Be prepared when you get home to wash absolutely everything with hot water and then tumble dry, meaning your clothes will shrink sadly :(
But this trip was incredible! Paragliding and white water rafting are a must do!!
Everything was so beautiful but Rome was definitely my favourite.
This trip was what really set my travelling passion on fire!!
This was off the back of travelling around Palm springs, LA, Mexico and Hawaii.
I went with 2 best mates and met some of the coolest people in the world.
Jon was our coach and Rado was the driver. These two I bloody love!! They gave us all they could and were always there to answer any questions and partied like we expected them to!!
This was one of the best trips of my life time!!
Any questions, hit me up on FB. Would love to hear from other passionate travellers!
I booked this trip last minute as a 'friend' had dropped out on me and I needed a trip that I could go on, on my own. I can honestly say that it was the best decision that I have ever made because I had an absolutely amazing time!
There were 15 of us altogether split over 2 boats, and I managed to have a double bed to myself all week as my roommate was more comfortable sleeping on deck due to the heat. The boats were really nice, and actually quite comfortable. I've certainly slept in a lot worse.
A typical day would be waking up at around 7 or 8am (because the sun is just too bright and hot that it's impossible to sleep in), set sail around 9.30am for about an hour or two then we stop for a swim and breakfast, set sail again for another few hours then stop for more swimming and lunch, set sail again and it'd be another couple of hours to port where we'd dock, go for a walk around, have dinner and then hang out.
The skippers were brilliant and the breakfasts on board are amazing; literally the best jam I've ever tasted. I'd strongly recommend that you have the skipper cook lunch and then everyone just contributes towards it. The most we spent is 3 euro each and we had some amazing authentic Greek meals. I was little worried that I would handicap the meals because I'm lactose intolerant but this just wasn't the case. If you let the skippers know, they're more than accomodating. Whenever we'd stop for a swim, our skipper would tell a little about where we were and the history behind it which was great. Also, when we docked in port, the skippers would recommend stuff for us to do. We went bike riding, climbed 999 steps to a fort, went shopping, and best all watched the most amazing sunsets every night because the skippers would tell us the best vanatge points. One particular day we couldn't pull into the port on the itinerary due to the wind so we went to a nearby port and the skippers paid for a water taxi for us so that we could still see everything on the other island. They didn't have to do it but they did, which just shows how nice they are.
I really could go on all day about how great this trip was. It was my first time away from home on my own and my first Contiki. It was that good that within a week, I had booked myself another one. You'd be really missing out if you gave this one a miss!
Just a couple of sidenotes:
1) I'd give yourself a couple of days either before or after the trip so that you can get out and about in Athens because the tour doesn't encompass any of that; 2 days should be more than enough.
2) Your skipper is essentially your tour manager. You'll meet someone at the hotel who will take you to the port but they don't come with you on the trip. You're essentially left to your own devices and there's no 'organised activities' which is good because it means that you all bond as a group.
I really can't express how wonderful this trip was. Great people, beautiful locations, and so much fun! A particular shout out to our tour manager Nick and coach driver Marco, who made the experience extra special. They put so much work into making sure we were safe and had the most fun possible, I can't thank them enough. The food in Spain in particular is wonder, the history fascinating, the locals friends, and the events a load of fun and great exposure to the cultures. Of course the best part of contiki is making new friends and we had a sensational group. Can't recommend it enough!

Overall good tour! Not run how I imagined it to be concidering I used to be a travel agent. Fellow Contiki people on my tour said the Europe ones are run more efficiently but that might just be the tour manager?
As long as your into a lot of drinking and early mornings this is the type of tour for you. It's also a good way of getting around for first time travellers. I did feel like I was on the bus the entire trip, and when I wasn't on the bus I felt like I should be haha. On the bright side I did meet some amazing people and had a ton of unforgettable experiences!
For my second Contiki Trip, it didn't dissapoint! Visiting Italy has been a dream of mine since I was a kid and I finally got to experience it. While we covered a lot of ground in just a week, I will someday return to explore more of the area. If it is your first time to Italy, this is a good introduction and covers the main highlights. You will see the Colloseum, Vatican City, Venice, Florence, Pisa, and more. Bring some extra money in case you want to shop too! Again, as with my previous contiki, there was a good amount of free time and organized time. The optionals were fun and I particularly enjoyed the cooking class! Our tour guide and bus driver were awesome and and very knowledgeable! The staff were very friendly and provided the best recommendations for the free time. Because of the free time you have, I would recommend doing some research beforehand to know what sights and museums are in the area and if possible try to get a reservation/skip the line pass (something I didn't do). Another recommendation to make is to bring a few changes of clothes - especially during the summer as it gets hot. As well, bring a water bottle to avoid dehydration.
Accommodations and transportation were comfortable and overall, it was an enjoyable trip.
What can I say, this tour was my first contiki tour. it was the best 2 weeks of my life. ALL the hotel's were nice and the weather was amazing, my tour guide Steph was amazing she had a great amount of knowledge,she took us to some amazing place's and was very entertaining. The highlight of my trip was definitely the helicopter ride over the grand canyon, it's alot of money but
It's a must do for anyone who visit's Vegas. I was very unlucky as most of the people in my tour were very immature girls who were very mean to me and tried to ruin my trip, but apart from that my tour was amazing. My favourite place was New York, their was so much to do there anyone doing this tour I would strongly suggest doing the central park bike tour and the food tour. I can't recommend the best of USA tour highly enough and am going back next year to do the grand southern contiki tour if you have any questions just send me a message and I'll be more than happy to answer them
By far one of the best experiences of my life!! I certainly tested myself by throwing myself out of my comfort zone and travelling on my own. So much so I am now booked onto one of the Australian tour for October.. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone. It was so well organised and every little detail was thought about. Every place we visited had something completely different to offer and the accommodation was great too! I won't spoil it all for you by telling you the things you will get up to but honestly if you are in two minds about this trip, I recommend you just do it!!!! In the words of Contiki #no regrets!
This trip is full on but such an awesome experience! You see so much and do things you would have never imagined in the 20 days. The sight seeing, the partying, the new friends you make, it is all worth it. I had one of the best times ever travelling around Europe for my first time with 49 amazing people!! You really do become one big family, and make friendships that will last a life time.
The accommodation and food well exceeded my expectations. Staying in little cabins at the contiki villages, makes it so much fun, as you're not all spread around a hotel on different floors. They aren't always that fancy, but it's part of the experience. All these sites have bars onsite, which is nice and easy for partying. The contiki team throw costume parties for you onsite, and they are awesome. You get feed pretty well on this trip, with 3 course meals most nights, and sometimes free wine with your meal, who can say no to that?
The optionals are a must do! Most people do them all, and it's a great way to bond with your new friends. In the end it's all about the people you share these memories with. Our tour manager (Courtney) said at the beginning of the tour "you saved to travel, you are not travelling to save" - so spend up and do everything you can and literally have no regrets!!
The bus rides aren't as bad as people make them out to be. You spend most of the morning catching up on sleep and you don't really get sick of the bus, it's actually quite fun, good time to have some down time and chat with all your new friends.
Recommendations would be to take some church clothes for places like Vatican City, you need to be covered up to walk around there. Also some nice outfits for Monte Carlo and a few of the other nights out. It can be a pain trying to find outfits on your free days in places like Paris when all you want to do is see the Eiffel tower etc.
You create the best memories ever with amazing people and Contiki treats you very well - such an awesome team of people! Missing all my contiki family so much!
Would do it all over again!!
Honestly don't even know how to describe how insanely amazing this trip was. It's intense, but the Corfu break is a godsend and the bus becomes your home and is so good for chilling, recovering and sleeping. Our tour manager also made sure we were always entertained with games and videos so the bus days were just as good as the touring days. Our tour manager and tour driver Az and Jimmy were so so incredible. They are so knowledgable and make everything seem so seamless, while still being two of the most fun, energetic and friendly people I've ever met. They both came out and partied with us plenty and somehow managed to be back at "work" the next day while the rest of us where basically dying on the bus.
Accommodation is budget, but you do nothing but sleep in there (if that) and really it's pretty good for what you pay for. Personally, I think it creates a much better environment than in hotels as well because everyone hangs out in common areas rather than in their rooms, and you get to change around and share with a different 2-3 people every night.
There is a lot of partying, but whether you're into that or not it's all cool, there will always be people to hang out with. It's also not usually clubbing and stuff, but theme parties, karaoke bars, or just making your own fun with your Contiki family. and And yes, I didn't believe it at first but your tour mates really do become your family. You will get closer to them than people you've known for years and share such amazing experiences with them.
The tour is fast paced. You are never anywhere (except Corfu) for more than two days. You will not get to see and do everything but you will definitely know where you want to go back to! Contrasts takes you to such a great range of places and you do get a really good glimpse in such a short time with the first day usually being guided or planned and the second day being a free day.
The optional activities, while some were better than others, are the best part of the trip so try to do them all, and if you can't afford it, figure out a way to afford it! I personally feel that you'd miss out on a lot and the tour would feel quite empty without them. We were able to pay for them all and then cancel any time if we changed our minds (provided we gave some notice if bookings needed to be made).
I think 29 days was the perfect amount of time. I would definitely not have been ready to leave a week earlier, but my body was pretty much shutting down by the end from alcohol, bad food, lack of sleep and the cough (yep, the Contiki Cough is real and there's nothing you can do about it, you just keep going.)
I could go on forever, but honestly - just do this trip. You won't regret it.
This was a great way to see a lot of Australia in a very short space of time. Yes, it was very rushed - and a lot of people complained about that - but we covered a LOT of ground in two weeks so it obviously was never going to be at a leisurely pace. If I had travelled Australia on my own, I would've just gone to the big cities and missed out on a lot of the really cool places I got to visit while on Contiki simply because I never knew they existed - particularly the Whitsundays and Fraser Island, which are both BEAUTIFUL! The night on the farm was also one of my favourites, and I really wasn't looking forward to that. It was a shame that there weren't many optional activities on this tour (compared to another Contiki that I have done), and the ones that were available were very pricey but I suppose that was because most of the places we went to were relaxing beachy places and not places where there is tons to do! But we still had a great time. The included meals were all really good, and great accommodation everywhere (except for Coffs Harbour but that was just a surf camp so couldn't really expect anything fancy). I've rated it four stars instead of five simply because the group was a bit cliquey and therefore I didn't enjoy it as much as my previous Contiki as people didn't integrate that well, but that's just something you can't predict or control. All in all it was a great way to see the East Coast and although it was rushed, I now know which places I want to go back to! I would recommend it for people who just want to take it easy and not have to worry too much about where they're going or staying, but lots of people got annoyed with how controlled it was and wanted to feel more like travellers so wouldn't recommend for those who are a bit more spontaneous and would rather build their trip as they go.

How big a break did the Edmonton Oilers get by winning the lottery for the 2012 NHL Entry Draft and the right to make their third consecutive first overall pick by snatching it from the Columbus Blue Jackets? Very big.
It is good to be the WHL King!

In 93-94, I was an 18 year-old kid playing his first year of junior with the Kamloops Blazers. The team was supposed to be building up to compete for the WHL championship and Memorial cup (or Mem cup as Gregor likes to say) for the following year, but the young group matured quickly. Early into the second half of the season, we knew we could do it a year early.

We've talked a little bit in the last few days about the Oilers' 50-man list. What does it look like now? What should it look like going forward? Is it valid to worry about how much room there is on it, or is that a red herring?
Free Agents: Zach Parise, New Jersey Devils

May 03 2012 09:17AM
The New Jersey Devils are in a situation that no team likes to find itself in. Zach Parise's contract expires this summer, and not only does he look likely to test the market but he also seems a safe bet as the NHL's most sought-after forward.
May 02 2012 08:18PM
Months are giving way to weeks and eventually weeks will fade into days. The 2012 Entry draft--with the Edmonton Oilers once again at the bow. Ironically, it's the rear end that's likely to get a lot of attention.

Hello Ben
Do you have a name for the Halycon type plant with the white edge? It must
be quite beautiful
As far as I understand it, Gypsy Rose is a sport that occurred during the tc
of Striptease at Winterberry Farms. You'll like the plant... I prefer it to

Yesterday I visited Piet Warmerdam a dutch wholesale grower. He
showed me a very blue plant with a pure white edge of about 2 cm
width, clearly a tardiana ( Halcyon?) type. This must be the first
true blue plant with a pure white edge?
I acquired there Gypsy Rose , like a small version of Striptease

Age: 130
History: HEC Paris was founded by the Paris Chamber of Commerce and Industry as a Grande Ecole in 1881. The HEC MBA program was created in 1969, and whist excellence and tradition are still at the heart of the MBA, the academic curriculum has been redesigned to reflect the changes in today's business world..
Address: HEC is located on a 300-acre wooded campus, 10 miles (16km) southwest of Paris, where the culture, history, and charm of the French capital are easily accessible. The HEC campus is the largest of its kind in Europe is also close to La Défense, the Parisian business district. Many MBA participants choose to live on the fully autonomous campus.
Ambience: The HEC MBA incorporates a strong French heritage with international diversity and curriculum delivered in English.
Vital statistics: Accredited by AMBA, EQUIS, and AACSB, the MBA is divided into two eight-month periods – the core phase and the personalised phase – ensuring that participants master the essential business skills but can still customise the programme to meet their own professional and personal goals. English is the only language required for entry, but participants may take courses in French.
Added value: Each HEC MBA participant receives personalised job-search advice from alumni, consultants, coaches, and peers, before they are exposed to the hundreds of job recruiters who visit campus every year. Our dedicated career services team actively supports participants in transforming their MBA experience into a real-life career trajectory and offers a bridge to the job market, where a network of 40,000 alumni and more than 200 recruiting multinational corporations are waiting for HEC MBA graduates.
Easy to get into? GMAT is mandatory (average GMAT score: 680). Applicants need a first degree, two letters of recommendation, essay responses, and pass two interviews. If you're not a native English speaker, you'll also need a TOEFL, TOEIC or IELTS qualification.
Glittering alumni: Henri de Castries, CEO, AXA; François-Henri Pinault, chairman, PPR; Pascal Cagni, vice president and general manager of Apple EMEIA, the Europe–Middle East–India - Africa division of Apple Computers.
Gurus: Jean-Noël Kapferer, marketing and brand strategy; Pierre Dussauge, strategy and business policy; David Thesmar, finance; Itzhak Gilboa, economics and decision science.
Student profile: Non-French participants make up 83 per cent of the programme, with 55 nationalities represented overall. The average age of MBA students is 29.5, and 29 per cent of participants are women. The average work experience is 6 years.
Cost: Tuition fees are €45,000.
Who's the boss? Bernard Ramanantsoa is the Dean of HEC Paris, and Valérie Gauthier is HEC MBA Associate Dean.

Party Like a Rock Star
Like Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin, Kate Hudson and Chris Robinson and that dude with the dreads from Counting Crows who dated every actress you'd ever heard of in the 90s, Hollywood has always flirted with rock-and-roll stars. Add some fire to the flames at the Denver Film Society's rock-and-roll-themed Party With Oscar a perfect time to pair leather and lace and celebrate Tinseltown's biggest night in style.
The eighteenth annual soiree begins tonight at 5 p.m. at Starz FilmCenter in the Tivoli building, 900 Auraria Parkway; for $45, you'll get a light dinner, two drink tickets and the Oscars on four large high-definition screens two with sit-down theater viewing and two with lounge viewing for socializing. Entertainment includes live music, DJs, pinball and a chance to win two all-access passes to the Los Angeles Film Festival in June for those whod like to guess at the nights winners. Ballots are $10, and if you buy in advance at the box office, you'll get a free pass to any Starz film the day of your purchase. This is the only Academy-sanctioned party in Colorado, and guests will get the same program that's handed out to celebrities at the Kodak Theater, says Denver Film Society associate director Britta Erickson. Attire is Hollywood rock n roll.
And if your idea of glamour and glitz is traveling green, you can cruise to the party on your bike and get in for a reduced $20 admission. For more information on the festivities, visit www.denverfilm.org or call 303-595-3456.

After making one of the most impressive debuts of last year with "Attack the Block," British writer-director Joe Cornish has smartly been taking his time to pick a follow-up. He's been courted by big, megabudget Hollywood projects, including "A Good Day to Die Hard" and "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire," but while taking meetings, has mostly ruled them out, telling us last year of the "Die Hard" sequel: "Ultimately I think it would have been too big a step to take. Some directors do do it. That guy Rupert Wyatt made a very low budget movie called 'The Escapist' and then he took on 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes' and did an amazing job. But he's a braver man than me."
Instead, he's been marching to the beat of his own drum, setting up an adaptation of beloved cyberpunk novel "Snow Crash" at Paramount, as well as continuing to work with regular collaborator Edgar Wright on the script for Marvel's "Ant-Man." But at long last, we have a project that looks like it could be the director's next, and it's looking terribly promising.
Both Deadline and The Hollywood Reporter bring news that Cornish has signed on to direct "Rust," an adaptation of last year's graphic novel by Royden Lepp, for 20th Century Fox. Drawing comparisons with "E.T." and "The Iron Giant," it's a family sci-fi adventure set in a world devestated by a war partially fought by man-made robots. Years after, a young man, Roman, tries to keep the family farm going in the absence of his father, only to find his life interrupted when a giant war robot arrives, chasing a boy with a jetpack.
The studio picked up the property almost exactly a year ago ahead of its publication, and the somewhat unlikely choice of Aline Brosh McKenna ("The Devil Wears Prada," "We Bought A Zoo") has been working on the script ever since, and she'll also co-produce alongside Simon Kinberg ("X-Men: First Class," "Elysium"). We assume that Cornish might take a pass on the script too, but either way, it's now a priority for the studio, and looks likely to be the director's next picture — and should be a smart stopgap for Cornish, letting him work on a bigger scope and budget, with more effects, without yet breaking the bank.
We downloaded Lepp's first book in the series, "Rust: Visitor In The Field" (four are planned altogether, with the second, "Secrets Of The Cell," due for release in the fall) this morning, and blasted through it, and it's a very strong piece of work. The tone is more melancholy than you might expect; somewhere between Spielberg and Jeff Nichols, and we think it's a very good fit for Cornish's sensibilities, even though it'll be a different beast entirely. The plot is only just getting started at the end of the book (lots of intriguing mysteries and relationships are set up), so we assume McKenna's been working on an outline for the broader storyline, or has been able to go off on her own tangents.
Anyway, between the material and Cornish's involvement, this has gone from a project that was totally off our radars to something we'll be keeping a firm eye on. Unless something else comes up, it sounds like the plan is for the film to be ahead of cameras next year, probably for a 2014 release. And there could be more Cornish-related news to come in the next few days; he's been working on the script for "Ant-Man," and it's been heavily rumored that an announcement on that film could be on the way at the Marvel panel at Comic-Con on Saturday. Edgar Wright cancelled an appearance at the Latitude Festival in the U.K. that was due to take place on Sunday; could it be because he'll be in San Diego the day before? Keep your eyes peeled here to see if anything comes of it.

Outfit from the last nightshift
See details (Click to show)
I think the shoes are a bit casual and summery perhaps- the natural welt and light coloured laces, as much as the colour and style - and a contrast between PS and tie is my preference. But that's very tasteful overall. I really like the cloth of that suit, and the buttons too.

Very nice look overall, I agree! I'm by no means an expert, but I think that a jacket with more natural shoulders would look less box-y, and also a lower button stance would flatter you more.

Very elegant...compliments...
What is the Irish "Irish" sweater then?
Well unfortunately its the same as everywhere else really - college students wear Abercrombie and Fitch, Hollister, and so on; or they might wear non-descript plain hoodies from American Apparel or somewhere like that. Yes, Dublin is the same as any other city in that regard. You really have to go outside the cities to see folk wearing aran sweaters and the like - and for the most part they are farmers so their clothes are dirty and worn out.
In Dublin the only ones wearing flat caps and aran sweaters are tourists thinking they are fitting in!
Oh man, reminds me of that time I found out people don't really wear onions around their necks in France...

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 for New Processors
Red Hat has increased Linux version 5.5 compatibility and is providing new packages.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 should be hardware compatible with the new eight-core and twelve-core core processors from Intel, AMD and IBM. New packages have a stable, multiplatform-supported (and Windows 7 compatible) Samba 3 on board, together with PostgreSQL version 8.4, the FreeRADIUS AAA server, and the gPXE bootloader that just released as 1.0.0 in February.
As with RHEL 5.4 that appeared in early September 2009, Red Hat is serious about virtualization and built its SPICE open source protocol into 5.5, albeit with some caveats on stability. Details are in the release notes.

After a 15-year-old girl's post to /r/atheism was met with thousands of jokes about statutory rape, Rebecca Watson decided she'd had enough. The lead writer at Skepchick published Reddit Makes Me Hate Atheists, a tirade against the subreddit's sexist behavior.
"If it's not enough that the 15-year old girl is getting a nonstop flood of rape offers from grown men, there are also plenty of posts trying to make her feel bad for being such a stupid fucking female," Watson wrote, screen-capping hundreds of comments for evidence.
The story had thousands of redditors wondering if this sort of behavior exclusive to r/atheism, or does Reddit, in general, have an intolerance problem?
On /r/truereddit, "a subreddit for really great, insightful articles," commenters discussed what Watson's article says about Reddit. Several top comments recommended unsubscribing from large and default subreddits for a more pleasant experience.
"This is a reddit problem, not an /r/atheism problem," wrote murderous_rage.
In the targeted subreddit itself, redditors discussed whether r/atheism is truly intolerant or just has a PR problem.
"It's not a PR problem if you can't spin it to sound better. You can't spin jokes about raping a teen girl into something not rightfully outrageous," wrote lifeinneon. "It's an actual behavior problem. This isn't about atheism, this is the broader atheist community and how /r/atheism contributes to that idea that atheists are misogynistic, elitist, white jerks."
"I feel pretty bad about it," wrote keepthepace. "I remember when I saw the picture I thought 'Ok, the discussion will just be about the girl's look.'"
Lunam, the 15-year-old original poster herself, also had a lot to say about the blow-up. She wanted to clarify that she didn't post a photo of her face "to get attention for being pretty."
"I haven't lost my faith in all atheists (oh the irony!) but I did learn a little about how reddit and other websites work," she wrote. "As a girl, it's difficult sometimes. People assume things. They think I'm unintelligent, shallow, or desperate for attention."
Pseudonymous communities have a long way to go before young women can feel as comfortable as their male peers, but the exposure Watson has given Lunam's experience finally has redditors talking instead of sweeping it under the rug.
