AngularJS provides currency formatting filter which converts numbers into locale specific currency string e.g. 123.50
number converts to $123.00
for en-US locale or 123,50 €
for fr-FR locale.
But what to do if I would like to perform currency formatting without decimal (cent) part e.g. $123
or 123 €
For AngularJS 1.3+
For applications running on AngularJS 1.3+ the best approach is to use currency formatter with third parameter (fraction size) set to 0
Example (JsFiddle demo):

{{10 | currency:undefined:0}}

Please note that if you want to use default currency symbol provided by AngularJS library, second parameter (currency symbol) needs to be undefined
or empty value will not work as expected).
For AngularJS 1.2 and previous releases of the library
One of the solutions could be to format a number with existing Angular currency formatter and then get rid of trailing . (dot) and two digits either with regular expressions or by trimming the string e.g. "$123.00".slice(0, -3)
That solution would work perfectly fine but only for locales where the currency symbol is at the beginning of the string like en-US or en-GB. But what to do with locales (e.g. fr-FR) where the currency symbol appear at the end of the string?
I want something more robust working for all locales.
A way more robust approach, which works with all locales, is to remove certain section of the formatted number. The easiest way to implement that is to create an AngularJS filter which performs number formatting and gets rid of decimal part.
angular.module('your-module', [])
.filter('mycurrency', [ '$filter', '$locale', function ($filter, $locale) {
var currency = $filter('currency'), formats = $locale.NUMBER_FORMATS;
return function (amount, symbol) {
var value = currency(amount, symbol);
return value.replace(
new RegExp('\\' + formats.DECIMAL_SEP + '\\d{2}'), '');
Please note that the decimal separator can be either .
(dot) or ,
(comma) and therefore we need to get that information form locale number formats variable.
Sine examples how that filter would work:

{{myprice| mycurrency}}

(en-GB locale) ->£10
(en-US locale) ->$20
(en-us locale) ->($10)
(dk-DK locale) ->30 kr.
(dk-DK locale) ->-30 kr.
There are two demos for en-US and da-DK locales.

Camaro Convertible is Official 2011 Indianapolis 500 Pace Car
6 Attachment(s)
From Scott Settlemire:
On behalf of Team Camaro -- let me say that I could not be prouder to announce the following: CHEVROLET CAMARO SS CONVERTIBLE TO BE 2011 INDIANAPOLIS 500 PACE CAR - New Camaro SS convertible in white with orange stripes and orange leathertrimmed interior evokes classic 1969 Camaro pace car model. - One of the 50 Festival Committee cars will be auctioned for charity at Barrett- Jackson Scottsdale auction on Jan. 22. - 2011 is the 100th anniversary of Chevrolet and the Indianapolis 500. DETROIT – A special-edition Chevrolet Camaro Convertible will serve as the official pace car of the 2011 Indianapolis 500. Chevrolet and Indianapolis Motor Speedway officials made the announcement at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale classic auto auction, where a bidder will have the opportunity to purchase the first of 50 Indianapolis 500 Festival Committee cars. The 2011 Camaro Convertible is the 22nd Chevrolet chosen to pace "The Greatest Spectacle In Racing®" and the seventh Camaro. Adding to the rich heritage is the fact that 2011 will mark the 100th anniversary of the first Indianapolis 500, as well as the centennial year of Chevrolet. Chevrolet will donate full proceeds of the auction to the David Foster Foundation, a charity devoted to supporting families with children in need of life-saving organ transplants. David Foster, the 15-time Grammy-winning music producer and songwriter, founded the organization in his native Canada. The pace car, along with the matching festival cars, features a Summit White exterior accented with orange stripes and door graphics. The interior is trimmed in orange leather, including front seat headrests embossed with the Indy 500 logo, along with white door panels and instrument panel trim. The instrument panel trim features extensions of the orange exterior stripes. The color combination is similar to the design used on the 1969 Camaro Indy pace car – replicas of which have become among the most popular Camaros in the collector world. "It's an honor for Chevrolet to pace the 100th anniversary of the Indianapolis 500, especially during this landmark year," said Chris Perry, vice president of Chevrolet marketing. "This is also a great opportunity for us to build on Camaro's strong momentum, while supporting an important charity." The auction for the commemorative edition pace car takes place Saturday evening, Jan. 22, during SPEED's live coverage of the Barrett-Jackson event. The vehicle carries lot number 1284 and bids can be submitted at the auction in person or online by clicking this link for a 2011 absentee bidder registration packet: "The Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the Chevrolet name have long been associated with one another beginning with Arthur, Louis and Gaston Chevrolet's participation as competitors in the Indianapolis 500," said Indianapolis Motor Speedway President and CEO Jeff Belskus. "It is fitting in this 100th year for both brands that we reinforce that relationship through this year's Camaro pace car, which resembles what many argue is the most famous pace car in IMS history, the 1969 Camaro. We are looking forward to seeing this car on track, pacing the greatest 33 drivers in the world on May 29." Pace car details Equipped with a 400-horsepower (298 kW) V-8 engine and six-speed automatic transmission, the actual pace car for the race requires no performance modifications to perform its duty in front of the racing field. All 50 of the Festival Committees cars will be SS convertible models fitted with the 2SS equipment package, offering the following standard features:
and unique tail lamps. Convertible refinement The Camaro Convertible delivers coupe-like driving dynamics, with the unmatched fun of open air driving. The Convertible model contains an enhanced structure designed to eliminate the traditional compromises of open cars, such as cowl or steering wheel shake. The goal is a convertible that drives like the coupe. All the powertrain and suspension elements of the existing Camaro Coupe carry over unchanged in the convertible. The top has a smooth, tailored fit, with acoustical foam in the headliner that helps deliver a quiet ride with the top up. Four strategic reinforcements enhance the already-stiff body structure to eliminate common convertible maladies of cowl and steering wheel shake. They include:
manufacturer as the Corvette convertible top, and operates in a similar manner. That means it folds in a simple "Z" pattern and latches with a single, convenient handle located at the center of the windshield header. Other convertible models in this segment still offer convertible tops with dual latches, forcing drivers into two-hand operations reaching across the car. The regular-production versions of the 2011 Camaro Convertible will begin arriving in Chevrolet dealerships in February, opening a new chapter in the Camaro's ongoing 21st century rebirth. Even before the introduction of a convertible model, Camaro ended 2010 as the sales leader in its class in the United States for the first time since 1985. Chevrolet's pace car heritage Louis Chevrolet, who founded the brand with William "Billy" Durant in 1911, was a racer, mechanic and pioneering engineer. He raced in the early years of the Indianapolis 500, which also started in 1911, and served a luminary of the event in the years after he retired his racing helmet. That included driving the official Indianapolis pace car, which was developed by Indy 500 founder Carl Fisher, who believed a rolling start was safer than a standing start. The first Indianapolis 500 featured a pace car driven by Fisher. The first Chevrolet selected as the Indianapolis 500 pace car was the 1948 Fleetmaster Six. The brand would go on to lead the racing pack more than any other manufacturer. The list of Chevy pace cars includes: - 1948 Fleetmaster Six - 1955 Bel Air - 1967 Camaro - 1969 Camaro - 1978 Corvette - 1982 Camaro - 1986 Corvette - 1990 Beretta - 1993 Camaro - 1995 Corvette - 1998 Corvette - 1999 Monte Carlo - 2002 Corvette - 2003 SSR - 2004 Corvette - 2005 Corvette - 2006 Corvette - 2007 Corvette - 2008 Corvette - 2009 Camaro - 2010 Camaro - 2011 Camaro VIDEO: |

ALDEN BALL DOW, FAIA (1904-1983) The son of Herbert and Grace Dow, he graduated from Midland High School. After visiting Japan, where he stayed in Frank Lloyd Wright's Imperial Hotel, in 1923 he attended the University of Michigan to study engineering in preparation to enter his father's company, Dow Chemical. But after three years, Dow left to study architecture at Columbia University and graduated in 1931. Dow also married Vada Bennett in 1931. Bennett, a daughter of Earl Bennett (an employee at Dow), and Dow had three children: Michael Lloyd Dow, Mary Lloyd Dow, and Barbara Alden Dow. After a year and a half of working with the architectural firm of Frantz and Spence in nearby Saginaw MI, Alden and Vada studied with Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin in Spring Green WI in the summer in 1933. Dow opened his own design firm in 1934 and received the Diplome de Grand Prix at the 1937 Paris International Exposition for his own home as well as the John Whitman house. Dow was named architect laureate of Michigan in 1983, shortly before his death. His home and studio are available for public tours.

The massive factory for which these houses were designed operated from 1934 to 1946 under a partnership of the Dow Chemical Company and the Ethyl Corporation to extract bromine from ocean water. Although bromine had a number of industrial uses at the time, including photography, its primary use was in the synthesizing of "Ethyl" a "no-knock" compound used in gasoline and aviation fuel. At its height, the plant employed 250 workers. Plans were announced on Aug. 9, 1933, hailed as the area's largest commercial development since the shipyard constructions in Wilmington of World War I. Ethyl and Dow Corporations invested $3.5 million, employing 1,500 construction workers which was a boon to the economy in the depths of the Depression. The property occupied some 90 acres and by local standards, the plant was enormous; some of its buildings were four stories tall. Plant operation in January 1934. It took roughly 7.5 tons of ocean water to produce 1 pound of bromine. At peak production, during wartime, the plant could process 30 million gallons of seawater a day, yielding 16,000 pounds of ethylene dibromide, the key ingredient in Ethyl. Demand for Ethyl plummeted in peacetime, and the companies decided to consolidate operations at a facility on the Texas Gulf coast. The Kure Beach plant shut down in 1946 and parts were scavenged by local businesses. The last traces of the oceanside intake channels were obliterated by Hurricanes Fran and Floyd in the 1990s. -- Adapted from Ben Freeman, Wilmington Star-News 1935 - The Howard and Katherine Ball House, 1411 West St. Andrews Road, Midland MI.

It was a mere 2.5 feet wide, 7.5 feet long and 6.5 feet high and would fit through any standard door. The design saved scarce metal, allowed the elimination of a basement, and was fast since it could be installed in less than one day.

The project was extensively promoted in major design magazines such as Architectural Record, Arts and Architecture, and Interiors. The first set of 12 homes was to be designed and started in 1956, followed by 13 in 1957, and 25 more over a span of 3 years, ending in 1960.

The City's Police Department strives to create programs that reduce the need for police response while creating a safer, more secure environment. The department's quick response time (less than two minutes) is one of its most effective tools in combating crime, saving lives in emergency medical situations, and capturing perpetrators.
Officers have access to emergency life-saving equipment such as A.E.D.'s (heart defibrillators) and Jet Ski body baskets attached for ocean rescue. Additionally, officers are detached to work with other agencies (Drug Enforcement Agency and Federal Bureau of Investigation) to resolve problems and share in asset forfeitures, which in turn creates additional resources to benefit the City.
Officers patrol the City on motorcycles, Jet Skis, boats, ATV's, bicycles, and in patrol cars. Special programs are offered throughout the year and include Red Ribbon Week, food drives, Toys for Tots, Kid Fest (including fingerprinting and ID program), the Police Officers Assistance Trust 5K Run, career day, and government day. Crime prevention programs are also offered including crime prevention and awareness, identity theft, vandalism, anti-robbery, hurricane preparedness, gun safety locks, vehicle identification, anti-theft "club" giveaways, and fraud and scam education.
For Emergencies, dial 911.
To report a crime, call the City of Sunny Isles Beach Police Department at 305.947.4440. (TTY 305.792.1589.)

Signature Move
Asuka Lock
Career Highlights
NXT Women's Champion; 2016 NXT Female Competitor of the Year
Asuka: Bio
Asuka, the globe's most ferocious female warrior, has found a home inside the yellow ropes of NXT.
For more than 10 years, the grappling ace decimated opponents with skull-caving kicks and ligament-tearing submissions in her home country of Japan under the alias of Kana. After accumulating a trove of championships and cultivating a fearsome reputation, the highly-decorated fighting machine was brought to NXT's acclaimed women's division in September 2015 in what General Manager William Regal lauded as one of the brand's most significant signings ever.
Following an impressive victory over "The Total Diva" Dana Brooke in her debut at NXT TakeOver: Respect and a triumph over Emma at NXT TakeOver: London, The Empress of Tomorrow overcame Bayley at NXT TakeOver: Dallas to become the new NXT Women's Champion — just two days before WrestleMania 32! She retained the title at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn II with another win over Bayley the night before SummerSlam. The many accolades and opponents destroyed resulted in Asuka being voted NXT Women's Competitor of 2016.
With her dominance in NXT firmly established, the other women in the division have been put on notice: Mess with Asuka, and tomorrow might never come.

A hot topic for such a cool-headed man. Mr LeVay was born in Oxford, educated at Cambridge and gravitated to California. He knew he was gay from his teens and followed the nature/nurture debate with interest. His belief that Freud was mostly wrong - that homosexuals are not the product of over-bearing mothers and weak or hostile fathers - may please his own dad, one of very few breeders in a sardined audience.
Mr LeVay's theory is as controversial as sex gets. If you're gay in the womb, and if these gay genes can be isolated, then the political resonances would be profound. On the plus side, advances in civil rights for gays and lesbians would be immense; bible-bashers would have a tough time with their 'sin' argument; Bill Clinton would solve his battle with the military; anxious parents would no longer fear the 'corrupting' influence of homosexual teachers. On the downside, we'd have what Mr LeVay calls the 'nightmarish science fiction' scenario of abortion, eugenics, 'cleansing' and 'curing'.
Mr LeVay was in Britain partly on holiday, partly on a sales drive. The Sexual Brain, his crisp account of his determination theories is just out, its back cover boasting endorsements from two Nobel laureates stressing that Mr LeVay is a responsible scientist, anything but a crank with a hidden agenda.
At the ICA he put forth his stall with eloquence, but it was riddled with woodworm. He stressed that his kind of work had a long way to go, and was not conducted in isolation: there were hundreds of people in laboratories throughout the US working feverishly to find the key stretch of DNA that may confirm his theories. His own analysis is based on the examination of less than 50 brains (19 gay men who had died of Aids, 16 presumed heterosexual men, and six presumed heterosexual women), as well as some monkeys and rats.
Consistently he found that a certain region of the hypothalamus was smaller in gay men. In the case of the male monkeys, those that had had their hypothalamus removed showed little interest in female apes, while the control group got it on like the good old days. But this was a tiny survey and posed many problems: the brains were those of adults, so who was to say that size had not changed over time? And what of the effects of Aids on the brain?
We then had a little slide show, as Mr LeVay displayed pictures of identical twins (who shared identical genes), comparing them to pictures of non-identical twins (who did not): the snaps revealed that even identical twins who had been separated after birth and reunited years later showed similar facial expressions and posture. He quoted other research suggesting that a man who has a gay brother is seven times more likely than average to be gay himself. But the fact that some gay identical twins had brothers who were not gay rather dampened Mr LeVay's hypothesis.
Mr LeVay acknowleged the grey areas in his work. Mandy Merck, a writer, producer and author of the book Perversions, took the scepticism a bit further. She catalogued the erroneous brain science of the past. 'It used to be thought that because the size of women's brains were smaller than men's, women were therefore less intelligent.' Later, noses were regarded as a sign of intelligence, the bigger your nose, the cleverer you were. 'Then people started asking why weren't the anteaters in charge.' Ms Merck feared the possible negative applications of Mr LeVay's work, citing the continued intolerance of society towards lesbians and gays, although she believed that he recognised the dangers. Mr LeVay's attitude? 'I think it would be nice to keep gays and lesbians, but why should I expect people to agree with me? I shouldn't, unless we can persuade them we're worth keeping.'
Another panellist, Patrick Wall, Professor of Anatomy at University College, London, called Mr LeVay one of 'the new phrenologists working in three dimensions, with very large microscopes'. Professor Wall showed us animal slides he had recently bought at the nearby National Gallery: grazing sheep, lions eating horses, a stuffed horse that once belonged to Gustavus Adolphus, the 17th-century king of Sweden. His argument was droll but vague: humans act in strange ways, ways stranger than animals, ways not always explicable by Mr LeVay's determinist reductionist approach.
Questioners were primarily concerned with the politics of it all and the responsibility of science. Mr LeVay replied that you can't hold science back and the more we understand each other, the less prejudiced we become. He thought it would be useful for teenagers worried about their sexual orientation to be able to go to a doctor and have a test. Pushing the PC boundaries to extremes, he said he would support a woman's right to abort a gay or lesbian foetus if she wished.
The audience hummed. This was the ultimate homophobic dilemma: you were anti-gay, you had all the knowledge of gene science at your disposal, but you were pro-life . . .
The tone was lightened by a therapist in the front row, who said that his experience of sexual behaviour was so diverse that he wondered if it could ever be adequately explained by pure science. He had met men who could only be sexually aroused by watermelons. No one hung around after that.
'The Sexual Brain' is published by MIT Press, pounds 14.95.
Sandra Barwick returns next week.

Zenovia has taken care of her schizophrenic mother, Audrey, for as long as she can remember. One morning, their lives are changed when two members of a church called the Brethren of the Sacrifice knock on their door sharing a version of the gospel that Zenovia finds odd. Despite her hesitance, she becomes a member of the church along with her mother. Zenovia soon realizes, however, that the Brethren beliefs aren't all that Audrey has made them out to be. It also doesn't help that Audrey's new husband has convinced her to stop taking her medication, deeming her illness a demonic possession. Unable to watch her mother's mental health deteriorate, Zenovia loses faith in the church and moves on to college in pursuit of her own dreams. Now married and living happily, Zenovia receives a call that her mother has committed suicide, and she must return to her hometown to face the demons she had once left behindCreate a review

Surgery Scheduled For O'Day
Northwest radio icon Pat O'Day is scheduled to go under the knife tommorrow to remove a
benign brain tumor.
O'Day traveled by ferry to Anacortes, last Monday to be checked out after memory and motor loss. At first it was feared that he had a malignant tumor, however tests showed it to be benign. O'Day is said to be responding well to medications to lessen the effects and should make a full recovery.

We decided to move my 14-week-old daughter from her bassinet into the crib.
Crying…so much crying.
The sacrifices are made now (i.e., sleep, intimacy) so that she will sleep better as a toddler, child and adult.
We "sleep trained" my son. The little guy doesn't cry in the middle of the night with a 104 fever (I'd actually prefer him to be a little more vocal…but we can tell if something is up). The road there was arduous.
Before I proceed any further…I need to mention this: our most invaluable tool is the video monitor. Absolute must have. We have a model from "Summer" that is our favorite.
Anyway, back to my son. First we tried to let him "cry it out" at 4 months. Basically, the hope is that your child will learn to soothe themselves and not freak the fuck out when they wake up.
Well…4 months is probably too young. He was relentless. Pillow over the head (mine), earplugs, nothing could drown out those cries.
We scrapped that plan.
Then we went to "progressive waiting". This is the shit. Your kid cries, you wait a set amount of time. After that time you go to their crib and for one minute ONLY just comfort them physically (rub their belly, head…something calming)…no verbal interaction whatsoever. No eye contact. THEY WILL (probably) GO FUCKING CRAZY when you walk away. But then strangely…they calm down.
After the first interval, you wait for a longer period of time for interval 2. We used 5-10-15-15-15…. Strangely enough, we never had to do 10…he relaxed and learned to calm himself down.
So, here we are with my daughter, and we are currently in the shit.
Oh look there, you'll need to pardon the abruptness with which I end this dialogue, I have a screaming child to tend to.
Until a little later.

Bozo on a bus
What's a bassinet? Seriously. I have two grown kids and I don't remember using the term.
BTW, both have no problem sleeping well into the afternoon.-
The one we use could be considered a portable cradle of sorts…I think ours is called a "rock&play".
Ha, I have joked about how "we'll be kicking their asses OUT of bed someday".

You sound like a great mother Eliza keep it up
heh, I'll be sure to let my wife know you said that :).

Gjin is an amazing host, who warmly welcomed us. He went out of his way to help us with anything we needed. He was very respectful and responsive throughout. The place was very clean and was exactly as advertised. We highly recommend the place and we will be back soon to enjoy it once again. We are looking forward. Gjin surely deserves 6 stars!
Bernard 2016-12-18T00:00:00ZGjin was a super host. He is very friendly and helpful. He came to meet me promptly and brought me to the apartment which is located in the heart of Pristina on a street with some of the busiest cafes and restaurants. Great for going for a coffee or food. The supermarket is also 20 meters from the building. Although the apartment is in a busy neighbourhood, it faces the back of the building which makes it nice and quite so you get the best of both worlds. The apartment itself is very warm and cozy. Home away from home. I have been traveling for over two years now and this is exactly what I needed for a few days. Very clean, comfortable bed, fully equipped kitchen, great wifi and bunch of TV channels in English. Watched a few movies and relaxed one of the days. Beautiful sun rays come into the living room and the kitchen every morning. A few days that I was here the weather was quite cold outside but the heating and the insulation of the apartment is great to keep it nice and warm. Gjin has really made the effort to make this place like home. Gjin has great communication skills and was always there when I needed to ask a question. I ended up extending my stay twice. Highly recommend it!
Ak2016-11-18T00:00:00ZGjin's place is a super cosy apartment in which you can feel very comfortable. It has everything you need in it and it is right in the city center. Across the street there is even a supermarket. During my stay, it was rather cold outside, but this wasn't a problem because of heating possibility, the place was immediately warm! Gjin was also a great host, if any question he replied within minutes. My boyfriend and I would recommend the apartment to everyone and definitely will go back next time if it's available.
Amanda2017-01-05T00:00:00ZThe apartment was great, clean and comfortable. Gjin is very friendly, he helped us find parking and gave some great tips on the city. The location was in the center of Pristina, literally. Points of interest are easily reachable within minutes from the apartment. Gjin's apartment is highly recommended if you plan on visiting Pristina!
Eduard2016-11-29T00:00:00ZIt was a very pleasant experience. Gjin was a wonderful host, responsible, handsome and easy going. The apartment was basic but very clean and well equiped. It was in the fourth floor without elevator. This was the only thing not too much acceptable but Gjin helps you a lot not to suffer the steps. I fully recommend this apartment.
Elira2016-11-30T00:00:00ZThe location of the flat couldnt be better (bars, mother Theresa pedestrian street, supermarket..). The place itself was clean and confortable. And Gjin is extremely nice, flexible and available. I'll definitely book this place again when i come back to Pristina!
Aurelie2017-02-26T00:00:00ZGjin was a great host and made check in really easy. The flat is in an excellent location. We enjoyed our stay :)
Hannah2017-01-02T00:00:00ZIt was a very pleasant stay and Gjin's apartment was like everybody told, it was clean, central, etc... Gjin was a very good host and helped us where he could. I'm definitely coming back in this apartment by my next visit at Pristine

Very nice apartment, with an extremely convenient location. Blerina's husband Faton was nice and welcoming. I highly recommend this place!
Aurelie2016-10-03T00:00:00ZGreat host
Merita2016-08-24T00:00:00ZBlerina and Faton were fantastic hosts, they came and met us late night when we were a bit lost to help us with check in. Communication was very quick and easy. The apartment is delightful, perfectly located near all the major sights in Prishtina as well as some really nice places to eat. Thoroughly recommend.
Karl2016-08-16T00:00:00ZThe apartment was lovely and very well designed. It was in the centre of town and within easy walking distance of the things we wanted to see and do. Our host was very helpful and made our arrival extremely simple. Faton has spent a lot of thought on the design of the place, making it functional as well as pretty.
Hamza2016-08-29T00:00:00ZVery nice, clean and cozy apartment - looks exactly the same as in the pictures. The flat is in a perfect center location. Blerina and Faton were great hosts, kind and helpful. I highly recommend a stay in this apartment!
And2017-02-16T00:00:00ZGreat place! Would stay again!
Rachel2017-01-05T00:00:00ZPerfect place to stay at while visiting the most vibrant capital in the Balkans. I don't really know how could I describe with words the cozy, amazing, and picturesque atmosphere Blerina and Faton created in this apartment. Just take a look to the pictures -that speak enough for themselves-, give a chance to Prishtinë although it's not among your top destinations and enjoy of the city staying in this amazing place. Thanks so much again, Blerina and Faton!
Roberto2017-02-06T00:00:00ZI can wholeheartedly recommend the Yellow Sweet Cherry Studio to anyone looking to visit Pristina. The apartment is very central, surrounded by nice cafes and restaurants and the city center is a 4 minute stroll away. The view from the apartment is beautiful, you have a nice view over the city. The apartment itself is exactly as shown in the pictures, so we only had pleasant surprises. I would go back any time.

Richard2017-02-18T00:00:00ZGreat apartment on such a good location. :))
Benjamin2015-12-08T00:00:00ZShpresa is a really nice person. Easy to talk and really caring. Flat was nice and clean and the beds were good. Placed at a very central and safe part of the city. In addition to renting us the flat, she helped a lot with suggestions about things to do and places to go. Something that i really appreciated and I think it was really kind of her. In short words everything was OK and I can suggest without a doubt.
Fatos2017-01-06T00:00:00ZGreat host and stay in a very central location!
Enea2017-02-21T00:00:00ZWe stayed in Prishtinë only for one evening and as we were travelling by car our arrival times changed somewhat. Shpresa was very accommodating in waiting for us, and a gracious host. She was very pleasant and showed us everything we needed to know about the apartment. The apartment is extremely central, and being on the 7th floor had great views of the city. Central heating meant that the apartment was very warm in winter. We had to switch it off to keep the temperature manageable The apartment is very well equipped and very clean (we were asked to remove shoes before entering the apartment - a v good sign). I would gladly stay again.
Eugen2016-12-27T00:00:00ZPerfect central location. Super nice host Shpresa and an awesome cute and clean place even with a nice balcony. We will be back!
Julia2016-12-02T00:00:00ZThis is an excellent place to stay in when visiting Prishtina, it is a wonderful apartment with everything you need, plenty of sun light and nice view over the city, and is very centrally located. Shpresa is a wonderful host, very friendly and helpful. I would absolutely recommend this place.

The central location of Tringa's apartment and her tips on where the locals go allowed us to make the best out of our one night stay in Prishtina. Tringa is easy to reach, nice and helpful. The apartment is comfortable and well suited for a couple.
Hanna2016-09-21T00:00:00ZCentral location, everything as described, recommended.
Ines2016-12-24T00:00:00Z1- she is the best host i have ever met 2- apartment is in the heart of prishtina 3- it has everything what you need and clean 4-price is also good So i recommend to all that no need to look another flat in this city.book this apartment
Fırat2016-09-11T00:00:00ZMy husband and I stayed here for one night. We met with Tringa's sister, and she was very nice. The apartment is very cozy, clean, and comfortable. I did not expect that the water would be shut off from 10 pm to 6 am, but it did not make any difference to us for 1 night. The location is very central, and a taxi stand is close by in case you need to take a cab to the bus station very very early as we did. There is also a cute bake shop called "cake and bake" nearby that we saw featured on a music video, so that was a cool find as well. Lovely time and a lovely place. I recommend it to whoever wants a nice place to stay in Pristina.
Martha2016-09-18T00:00:00ZThe apartment is in the best location right in the square. It has everything you need for a short stay. I hope I can come back again some day as one night was not enough! Tringa is a great communicator and sent her sister to meet me in the square which made things easy. Would happily stay again
India2016-09-04T00:00:00ZApartment location was great, right in the city center. There was a good amount of space and the bed and couch were very comfortable! Hosts were great. Would recommend.
Sierra2016-09-25T00:00:00ZThe apartment is perfectly located in the city center with an amazing view of Prishtina. Tringa made it very easy for me to find the place and even helped me find parking by sending a map with directions which was very helpful. I was greeted by her brother Drin who showed me the place. The apartment inside was clean & cozy and the living room connects to the balcony with an amazing view. There's plenty of restaurants and shops downstairs and you pretty much can walk anywhere in the city. I really liked the place and the hosts were very helpful. Definitely recommend it.
sara2016-08-04T00:00:00ZTringa picked me up at the bus station and showed me the apartment. Apartment is in the center of the city, on the main square. Definitely recommend

Sam2016-12-18T00:00:00ZNita made our arrival super easy, and was very communicative the whole time we were in Prishtina. The apartment is spacious and had everything we needed. The location is great, and made going out at any time of the day easy and pleasant. And the bed is very comfortable!
Sean2016-11-13T00:00:00ZNita's place was very nice and extremely comfortable. She did everything possible to communicate and make the stay enjoyable.
Fred2017-01-08T00:00:00ZWe had a great time at Nita's place. It's right in the city center and close to everything. The place was clean and kitchen was well equipped. It's a fairly large apartment too and a great value right in the center of the city.
Charles2017-02-08T00:00:00ZThe place was convenient, cozy and great. Everything as clean and they even let us drop our bags off while they cleaning lady cleaned. They were great :)
Ashley2016-12-31T00:00:00ZExcellent communication and Nita even arranged a wonderful taxi service for us - at no additional charge. Also, we arrived when the cleaning service was finishing - and it was by far one of the most clean Air BNB's I have ever stayed in!
Ashley2017-01-07T00:00:00ZNita's apartment was excellent. In a great location in the heart of the city, with anything one could ask for. The apartment was clean and the host was really friendly and helping at all times. I would strongly suggest it to anyone visiting Prishtina.
Marigonë2017-02-22T00:00:00ZEsra is very polite, friendly and has a funny laugh. The apartment is perfect right in location not seen but you can see the center. Downstairs from the apartment are coffee shops and lounges that make for a nice evening. I definitely recommend this place you will enjoy yourself.

Sarah2016-10-14T00:00:00ZBesart is a great host. He even knows my native language. He let me check-in earlier. L&B's place is on a great location, very clean, in a quiet building. I strongly recommend this place. L&B, thanks for everything!
Milhad2017-01-15T00:00:00ZVery nice apartment which is very central. Super helpful and friendly host
Torben2017-02-04T00:00:00ZThe apartment is adorable and I would definitely like to stay here again the next time I'm in Pristina. The place is pristinely clean and lovely, close to the centre, and very accessible. At one point during my stay, the internet connection broke, but Besart and Leonora did everything to fix it asap, and they even brought me my favorite cake as an apology for the inconvenience. The owners are lovely and the apartment is my favorite in Pristina.
D.2016-10-31T00:00:00ZThis is a very charming studio - very clean and well furnished with a nice view from the balcony. It is a 5 min walk to the center (main square) and the street the building is on has many bakeries, grocery stores, food joints etc. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming - they left us fruits and delicious home-made chocolate cakes, also tea and instant coffee for the morning. I highly recommend this lovely studio!
Silviya2017-02-13T00:00:00ZAbsolutely fantastic apartment! Extremely spacious and very well equipped! I came from London and was blown away by the whole place, brilliant hosts who were happy to help any time and very quickly!

Beth2017-01-10T00:00:00ZBesart & Leonora's place is a really cute little apartment, really well furnished, new and super clean. It is very central and you can walk to anywhere you like.

Elion2017-02-25T00:00:00ZEasily one of the best experiences I've had - Qefsere is an awesome host and her place is fantastic: close to everything without the typical annoyances of a regular downtown place. I wish there was a place like this in every city!
Ian2016-11-09T00:00:00ZQefsere's appartment is a great location, good value for money and is ideal for a stay in Kosovo. Qefsere is a lovely person and couldn't have been more helpful. She meeted and greeted us. I would recommend this appartment to anyone who wants to visit lovely Kosovo.

Yves2015-07-14T00:00:00ZLena's sister met us after we got a bit lost! Apartment is in a great location next to cafes, shops & a good supermarket, and it only takes about 10/15 minutes to walk into centre. Flat is higher up so noise wasn't a problem, & Lena was really helpful with any questions/helped us to arrange transport to airport for our flight home.
Gemma2016-09-26T00:00:00ZThe apartment was lovely and had everything we could need so we could just bring ourselves and be ourselves. It was very hot and I would recommend air con as the next upgrade (and in the mean time a fan or two) as a way forward. Kindness, support, location and price were excellent- we were very happy with our first Pristina experience! Labi (Lena's brother) was very approachable and helpful- they are a good team!
James2015-08-16T00:00:00ZThe apartment was spacious and well decorated and clean. Lena was very good about suggesting places to visit. The beds were comfortable and the shower worked well. We highly recommend her as a host. There is a large parking lot in back of the apartment building.

M.2016-09-12T00:00:00ZThis is a great apartment to stay in Prishtina! I really enjoyed. It is in the city centar (7 minutes by walk) and is just as you can see at the pictures, very, very clean, bright and comfortable. Wifi in appartmant was excellent and there is a free parking place in front of the building. Nertilë is a great host. She was very helpful and she responded to my messages within few minutes. She gave us instructions how to reach her appartment and which places to visit. She was very flexible and patient about check in time. I am very pleased with my stay in her apartment and can not recommended her more. If you are staying in Prishtina you can not missed with this place.
Rino 2016-06-06T00:00:00ZNertilë's apartment is very close to the train station, which is handy if you're coming from Pejë, but other than that the apartment is a bit out of the way. It's mostly surrounded by apartment blocks which are still being built. The apartment itself is great - good size, great kitchen, bedroom and living room in a very safe building. We didn't actually meet Nertilë but her mum met us at the station and showed us round.
Katherine2016-08-07T00:00:00ZHad a great stay here for one night. Did not get a chance to meet Nertilê but instead her kind brother. Everything was exactly as described. Highly recommendable!

Walking distance to everything in the center, bars , restaurants etc. Tila is a great host, she knows everything about the city, history, politics etc. and good advice for current activities.

I stayed here to visit Prishtina with my mother and had a fantastic experience. The apartment is spacious and clean, only a 5 minute walk from the city center. Our host was very friendly, helped us find the quickest way to the center, and prepared a delicious breakfast for us! We had a wonderful experience and would definitely go back again.
Emily2016-08-16T00:00:00ZLeider war ich berufsbedingt nur 3 Tage/Nächte im City Apartment von Diellza - am liebsten wäre ich gleich dort geblieben! Ich habe mich sofort zuhause gefühlt. Weil die Wohnung modern, ansprechend hell, sympathisch und grosszügig eingerichtet ist und genau den Angaben entspricht. Und weil die Gastgeber-Familie um Diellza total charmant und jederzeit hilfreich ist und dennoch absolut diskret. Dass man ins Zentrum einige Minuten durch ein sehr einheimisches Quartier gehen muss, hat mich gar nicht gestört - ich fand das sogar sehr reizvoll.
Hans Uli2016-08-09T00:00:00ZMy friend and I had a great experience staying here. We were interested in cooking breakfast, and our hosts generously provided us with supplies from their own kitchen. They also walked us to a nearby grocery store so that we could find the rest of what we needed. The apartment is clean and spacious. I would recommend staying here.
April2016-10-16T00:00:00ZOur host Diellza and his family are really friendly, they welcomed us with a nice breakfast and fruits on the kitchen table. After that her brother Shend took us to City Tour. We just wanted to know the direction from home to city centre; but he gave us much more than that. Thank you for the tour! Also we felt really comfortable at home, everything's great except water restruction between 11 PM to 6 AM. There is nothing to do for that, that's Pristina's rule I think. Thank you for this great hospitality to Diellza and her family, hope to see you soon in Pristina or Istanbul if you come as you planned before :)
Barkın2016-04-29T00:00:00ZThis was a perfect place to stay in Pristina and Diellza was the perfect host - showing me around the city, giving advice on where to go and eat and how to get around - she even made me dinner one night when I was by myself. Her whole family made me feel welcome and helped understand the country and the city. The apartment is super nice, with everyone you need plus a balcony and a huge comfy sofa. The location is perfect with supermarkets on the doorstep and the centre of town with all the shops and cafes right after. I'll be coming to Pristina again and will definitely stay here.
Lydia2016-04-09T00:00:00ZDiellza and her sister are two lovely hosts. They made our stay in Pristina a very memorable one. Diellza answered all of our questions before and during the trip almost immediately. The apartment itself is spacious, clean and located in a quiet neighborhood that is still within comfortable walking distance of the main points of interest. Diellza does everything to make sure her guests feel at home in her apartment from small details like shampoo in the bathroom, slippers to wear in the apartment, cold bottles of water in the fridge or fresh fruit in the kitchen. As frequent Air BnB guests, these are the little things that we always remember. She gave us suggestions for any type of restaurant we were looking for and each recommended place was a hit! At one point we stopped consulting our travel guides all together and simply relied on her recommendations for lunch, coffee, dinner and everything in between! The only tip we didn't need was a breakfast place... because every morning Diellza and her sister brought a delicious homemade breakfast right to our door! We are already looking forward to our next trip to Kosovo and will definitely be staying with Diellza again!
Fabi2016-10-08T00:00:00ZEverything was just as described, Diellza was a great host, with very quick responses and I can totally agree with the other reviews. Thank you again..

If Indian food isn't your cup of tea, then you have great cafes nearby. There's also a 24h supermarket downstairs, which is great in case you want a late night snack or drink. The apartment is within five minute waking to the famous Nene Teresa street where you can people watch or sip on a macchiato at one of the dozens of cafes. The apartment is amazingly built and decorated by Agon himself. It is super clean and very comfortable, with plenty of sunlight. I would definitely stay here again!

Staying in Dren's apartment was a great way for me to spend a week in Pristina. Since it's centrally located, you can walk to most places and you have many shops, restaurants and bars less than five minutes away. The studio is quite nice with a great balcony and all necessary facilities.
Christophe2015-10-12T00:00:00ZLocated right in the heart of Pristina, this studio apartment is comfortable and cozy. Dren, your host, is willing to spend time with you to assist you and is very considerate during your stay.
Gene2017-02-12T00:00:00ZDren was very kind and accomodating. When we had a problem with the outer building door, he showed up to help in minutes! The flat is cute, modern, and perfectly located. Great worry free spot to stay in the heart of downtown!
Roberto2016-04-22T00:00:00ZDren has been a kind host, a very enjoyable guy, his welcome has been loving. We were seated on the balcony chatting in front a great view of the Madre Teresa Boulevar. He gave me some good tips to visit Prishtina and surroundings. The apartment was like the pictures in the notice. The only flaw, maybe, was a bit of moisture. The apartment is clearly convenient to the restaurants, bar and the place is very safe.
Denise2015-09-24T00:00:00ZDren and his familly were absolutly very helpfull. They always be there when we called them. The appart was wonderfull and the situation was very very central. I really appreciate everything there and I recommend it to everyone
kimmy2013-12-20T00:00:00ZWe had an amazing time staying at Dren's families apartment. Dren's dad greeted and invited us for a coffee on his terrace which overlooks the City centre, we had a lovely chat with him and Tak. The apartment had everything we needed and a cool 70s vibe. The location is perfect and it also has its own balcony looking over the city centre, which we loved. Staying in places like this is why we love Airbnb, it was one of those unique experiences. Dren and his family went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Don't look any further for a place to stay in Pristina! You can't beat this!
Ruben2016-06-11T00:00:00ZDren was super friendly, and his flat was exactly as described. It's on one of the liveliest streets in Pristina, tons happening and the place is perfect. Will definitely stay there again
ariel2015-09-22T00:00:00ZAn excellent studio apartment in a very central location. I stayed here for 7 weeks, and it had everything needed; bathroom, kitchen, lounge/bedroom, storage space, wifi, with a balcony that provides a very good view. The apartment is also in a clean, quality and modern condition. The location is within metres of a large number of bars and restaurants, ensuring there is always something to do. Dren himself was a very good host, in both a social and a practical sense. Dren also arranged many of my taxi's to the airport for me. His parents live upstairs, and are also very helpful, with his Dad even taking me fishing. Overall, this was a first class experience, and I will try and stay again when I return to Pristina.

Stayed for two weeks. Excellent experience. Besnik was very helpful and friendly guy. Would stay again at Besnik's place.
Beks2016-05-10T00:00:00ZBesnik was a great host. He was flexible with our arrival/departure time. He actually picked us up from a meeting point and drove us to the apartment with our luggage. He showed us the apartment and left a list of phone numbers and recommendations for the area, including a great taxi service and a nearby pizza place that delivered. (We were already familiar with Prishtina, so we didn't request much more information.) The apartment itself was really nice--super spacious for an apartment in Prishtina--with everything we could need. It was fully stocked with water, coffee, and tea. There were tons of fresh towels, extra blankets, and everything was nice and clean. The walk to the center was maybe around 15 minutes, and there were tons of restaurants, cafes, and grocery stores along the way, including a small market just a couple doors down and an Albi grocery center one street over. The taxi service knew exactly where Bosnia's apartment was, and the ride to downtown was in between 2 and 3 euro, depending on which part of the city we were headed. Definitely a good apartment find in the Prishtina area!
Cassie2015-06-20T00:00:00ZBesnik is a very nice person! Very friendly, respectful and well organized! One of the best airbnb houseowner! I highly recommend! He provided everything in the house even tootpaste and shave. There was always hot water in the house, free and fast internet. He is a helpful guy. He took me also from airport and helped me when I need something in the city, address, taxi, etc. If I come again, I would never look another house. Thanks for hospitality.
Özkan2015-05-11T00:00:00ZClean apartment about twenty minutes walk from the centre with a helpful and friendly host.
John2017-01-29T00:00:00ZBesnik was a great host and I can whole heartily recommend him. His apartment was exactly as described and he was happy to give me information on Pristina and Kosovo, as well as take me out for a drink and introduce me around. Thumbs up!
Aljaz2016-06-30T00:00:00ZThe host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
ArifBesnik took us in very spontaneously, and even picked us up in the centre! He was very nice, and supplied us with lots of tips on what to do and where to go :)
Leo2015-08-08T00:00:00ZBesnik was a wonderful host. He made us feel at home immediately. He was very helpful and would address any questions we had very quickly. His apartment was very nice inside. He went out of his way to help us with public transportation and made some wonderful suggestions about what to see and do in Kosovo. I would not hesitate to stay at his place if I am ever back in Printina.

RyanWe had a nice time in the apartment: Bekim was very flexible, allowing us to move our dates on just 3 hours' notice. His brother Dani really kindly picked us up at the bus station. The apartment has good amenities that we took advantage of: washing machine, well-equipped kitchen, balcony to enjoy your morning coffee with views. The walk into the center is not far but requires navigating down a busy road, up a hill. The location proved quiet and near a lot of supermarkets and some good restaurants catering to the expat/embassy crowd nearby. The smoke odors from previous guests lingered. Overall recommended for the good value and kind hosts.
Talia2016-09-20T00:00:00ZEverything was OK and as decribed. Small apartment, but enough for two or three to sleep close to the city center.
Ivica2015-05-05T00:00:00ZA lovely well decorated and comfortable apartment in a good location with views over Pristina. Also a well stocked kitchen with utensils and crockery, Thank you Bekim ☺
Sarah2015-04-06T00:00:00ZI got to the property late in the evening after i got my hire car but Bekim was only happy to offer the services of his brother to come meet me at the airport, the apartment itself is lovely and cosy and has everything you need for a comfortable stay in Prishtina and would gladly spend sometime there again, the apartment is as per photos and Bekim and his brother are more than helpful if needed but not to the point of being intrusive.... a gem of a find!
David2016-08-24T00:00:00ZThe apartment is in very good shape and right across from the Austrian and US embassies, which was a main factor for me. Also, it's an easy downhill walk to the center of town. There's also a good bakery and a fruit shop just down the street. I actually never met Bekim, but his brother met me with keys and Bekim was very responsive to questions I had during my stay, and was flexible with my arrival date. Overall a very positive experience.
Alexander2015-06-11T00:00:00ZBekim was a wonderful host. All was well with the flat. Though you have to walk to the city center it was that bad. Will look to stay again in the future.
Grant2015-10-05T00:00:00ZWe felt very welcome in Bekim's place. The place was perfectly located near the center and taxis where always available in walking distance. The place is well equipped and the view is perfect. You can see the sparkling city lights and the mountains in the morning fog.

Hi Yassine,
Some answers...On Thu, Feb 5, 2015 at 11:17 AM, Yassine Teimi <firstname.lastname@example.com> wrote:
Dear Community,I used to create my reports using the openerp report designer plugin into openoffice, thanks to base_report_designer module. Now I'm trying to use Aeroo reports for my reports, because it seems more easy to update, it's not using sxw extension, just odt extension.My question is to use it, should I just install the aeroo_reports module, or should I install aeroo reports libraries on my ubuntu 12.04 LTS server, the one hosting my openerp v7 installation ?If these librairies are not installed, the aeroo reports modules can be installed ?I'm asking that because I've already the aeroo_report module installed on my openerp instance. I have a menu right now on configuration/technical/Aeroo Reports . And I was wondering If my previous installation of aeroo report libraries is correct.Besides, when trying to create an aeroo report for an object, there is only one output format : ODF Text Document (.odt) , I want to have pdf output format, excel,... and so on. what do I need to get this outputs formats ?.I also want that my reports generate automatically for every page a predefined header and footer, how can I do this ?What is the relation that aeroo reports have with webkit report ? is it usefull for headers and footers ?.I know I asked so many questions, but this is really important for me to know.Thank you dear community.--CordialementYassine TEIMIChef de projet & ConsultantTEL : 06-56 15 31 47_______________________________________________
