Titanium jewelry rings are becoming popular choices for men when they are shopping for their wedding jewelry, or for simply adding accessories to their wardrobe. The popularity of titanium bands is growing rapidly and we offer a wide selection. Titanium rings are available in many sizes, colors, and styles.
Titanium is an extremely durable and tough metal. Titanium can be found in places such as a meteorite, those that landed during the dinosaur era. Titanium is a primary metal used in aerospace construction such as engines, parts for spacecraft, missiles, and many other military and industrial applications. As a result of its high quality, it is used to create jewelry as well.
Titanium has the highest strength to weight ratio of any metal in existence. Another quality of titanium is that it has a high resistance level to corrosion. Titanium is often alloyed with other metals such as nickel and aluminum to increase its durability and corrosion resistance. Titanium rings make great options as an alternative to those who may be allergic to other metals.
There's a titanium ring in a style, size, design, and color for every man. Yes, there are many other metals to choose from such as palladium, gold, silver, platinum, tungsten, carbon fiber, and more. Many of these items just do not come with the benefits and customization that you can get with titanium rings.
Titanium rings come in a variety of colors. Through anodization, manufacturers can create titanium rings in a number of colors such as black, blue, red, green, yellow, etc. The two most popular colors of titanium rings are black and the standard grey.
Sizes are available in every size for any man. One of the very few drawbacks to a titanium ring is that they cannot be resized because of their strength. It's crucial to know what size your finger is before you buy and place your order.
Titanium rings come in a number of different designs. Along with the main colors, color accents are available such as Celtic style, Christian style (crosses, fish, etc.), cable, and many more. Engraving is also possible with titanium rings by Benchmark & Titanium Rings Studio. If you'd like a special engraving on the inlay of the ring, you can request it at the time of checkout when you buy your ring.
Rings are available with various gemstones. If you're looking for a ring that contains a diamond, sapphire, or other gemstones, then you certainly have options. With so many options available, you can have a one-of-a-kind custom ring that will show off your taste and style. We offer a large selection of matching wedding bands too.
Before you purchase your titanium-jewelry from us, there are some things that you should make sure you take care of prior to. The first and most important is to make sure you get accurate sizing for your ring. As stated earlier, titanium rings cannot be sized due to their construction and composition.You can request a free ring-sizer kit here so you can be certain to order ther perfect comfort-fit ring.
Fortunately we offer a lifetime guarantee. Over time fingers will fluctuate in size. A tight ring can cause your fingers to be swollen as the tension on your fingers increases. When and if that time comes, for a nominal fee of $49 we will replace your titanium ring with a new one.
Many other retailers of men's jewelry do not stand behind their products. We are confident you will love the purchase you make with us. We sell products that are made in the USA only from designers like Edward Mirell that have the highest standards of quality control.
Sure, you can look elsewhere for wedding rings, necklaces, bracelets, but how many others will offer you free shipping and the guarantees that we provide? Free shipping, a lifetime guarantee, and a 100% satisfaction guarantee are just a few reasons that we know your purchase will be super special.
If you find a price lower than what we offer on Amazon, Overstock, Etsy, and others, we will match prices on eligible rings. For a stylish titanium wedding ring on your special day, we want you as a customer. Shop with us and know that you're not just a saver when it comes to price, but also when it comes to saving you from stress and worry about whether you made the right choice. Shop from our large selection of titanium men's rings.
All prices are in USD.

An armpit lump is swelling of one or more lymph nodes under the arm.
Lump in the armpit; Localized lymphadenopathy - armpit; Axillary lymphadenopathy; Axillary lymph enlargement; Lymph nodes enlargement - axillary; Axillary abscess
An armpit lump in a woman should be checked by a health care provider immediately, as it may be a sign of breast cancer.
Lumps in the armpit may have many causes. Lymph nodes are filters that can catch germs or cancerous tumor cells. When they do, lymph nodes increase in size and are easily felt.
Cysts and infections of the skin of the armpit may be caused by shaving or use of antiperspirants (not deodorants). This is most often seen in teens just beginning to shave.
Abscesses under the skin may also produce large, painful lumps in the armpit.
Other causes of armpit lumps may include:
Home care depends on the reason for the lump. Check with your health care provider to determine the cause.
Call your doctor or nurse if you have any unexplained armpit lumps. Do not try to diagnose lumps without professional help.
Your doctor or nurse will examine you and ask questions about your medical history and symptom, such as:
The physical examination may include gently pressing the nodes with the fingertips.
Testing depends on what is found during the physical examination.

Mount Saint Mary College now offers its RN to bachelor of
science (RN to BS) in nursing degree program online.
A bachelor's degree in nursing is a must-have credential for
nurses interested in career advancement.
"At the Mount, we've been preparing nurses for 50 years,"
explained Andrea Ackerman, nursing division chair. "Now we're
bringing that expertise to you online."
Accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education
(CCNE), the Mount's RN to BS nursing degree program offers
flexibility and convenience to busy students. The innovative online
format makes it easier to arrange coursework with any schedule.
Students work with faculty in person only during a brief, on-campus
physical assessment session for practical skill building.
Caitlyn Villafane of Middletown, NY, a nurse at Maria Fareri
Children's Hospital at Westchester Medical Center, says that the
online program gave her the opportunity to earn her degree while
working and caring for her eight-month-old child.
"It's just so convenient," she said. "I usually wait until my
daughter goes to sleep, and then do the homework."
The Mount brings its tradition of personal attention into the
digital world with a comprehensive orientation and ongoing support
through the state-of-the-art learning management system, eClass. RN
to BS candidates enjoy fast access to coursework, the college's
library, and national and international libraries.
Students can earn up to 30 credits in RN experience toward a
bachelor's degree by completing the foundations of nursing bridge
In addition to pre-med, pre-dental and pre-veterinary tracks,
and physical therapy, the Mount's renowned nursing programs boast
an NCLEX-RN pass rate that consistently outperforms the state
average. The college provides the only four-year nursing program in
the mid-Hudson area.
Enrollment specialists are available to help prospective
students apply to the program, review qualifications and academic
transcripts, and transfer credits.

Best Of :: Goods & Services
If only for its in-house Blick Brand art supplies (Colored pencil sets! French easels! Tracing paper pads!), we would love Blick. But the friendly, knowledgeable staff provides us arty types with another reason to love this longtime friend to creative people. We find everything from canvas to archival papers to camel-hair brushes at this 104-year-old bastion of better art supplies. Four dozen different types of watercolor paper! Thirty-two different lesson plans for art teachers! We don't know what Awagami Shin Inbe colored paper is, but the fact that Blick (and only Blick) carries it means we want some! Don't miss the clearance aisle, a magic markdown store all its own.
Giant Coffee is the sweetheart of the downtown Phoenix coffee scene. Casual, comfortable ambiance? Check. Well-crafted coffee drinks? You know it. Breakfast burritos and house-baked pastries are just the icing on the cake. The space is open and airy, with huge open windows that sweep in sunlight and fresh air (a welcome and generally unfamiliar phenomenon for the laptop crowd). It's really the small things that make Giant so great in our eyes; its dedication to using simple, quality ingredients puts Giant a step above the rest. Local organic eggs are the heart of the breakfast burritos (warmed slowly in the oven). Giant's tableside tea service feels luxurious but is presented free of pretense. Rich, buttery Straus Creamery "Barista Milk" is the perfect complement to Four Barrel Coffee's espresso blend — only barely homogenized, it retains remarkable complexity of flavor and lends a creamy texture to the shop's milk-based drinks.
Readers Choice: Cartel Coffee & Beer House
Our pick for Best Iced Coffee is a newcomer to the metro Phoenix coffee scene — and we can't wait to see where its maker takes us from here. Despite being open for less than a year, Peixoto Coffee has managed to bring delightful innovations to the table. Owner Julia Peixoto Peters imports coffee grown on her father's farm in Brazil, which her husband, Jeff Peters, then roasts in-house. Cold brew has become boringly ubiquitous, but Peixoto's iced coffee is — for lack of a better word — thrilling. Ground beans are steeped in cold water until the mixture is heavily concentrated. The concentrate is then diluted to a more drinkable — but still full-bodied — cold-brewed coffee. What happens next is what sets Peixoto's iced coffee apart: It stores its cold brew in nitrous kegs and feeds it through a tap system (yup, just like beer). The resultant cup — served with or without ice in a chilled pint glass — has a silky texture, smooth, malty body, and beautiful cascading visual effect.
Pardon the pun, but Press Coffee Roasters continues to im-Press us. Despite their diverse origins, Press Coffee Roasters' offerings demonstrate the company's unparalleled commitment to coffee clarity and balance. Each one waltzes gracefully between sweetness, acidity, and bitterness. The company's approach to roasting is exceptionally nuanced, and it's managed to maintain a high level of quality despite recent expansion. As a rule, we don't want to be made to taste how a coffee's beans were roasted. Too light and even the sweetest coffee will taste little more than grassy or sour; too dark and complex and cups become little more than ashy, bitter lumps of charcoal. Press takes great care to ensure that its coffees' natural sugars are perfectly caramelized and that each cup is flavorful, unique, and free of overt roast influence.
Back in 2013, Arizona Distilling Company made history with the release of Copper City Bourbon, the first spirit to be made legally in the Phoenix area since Prohibition. Not long after came the Tempe distillery's Desert Dry Gin, a distinctly Arizonan spirit made with local botanicals (it earned a double gold medal this year at the San Francisco Spirits Competition this year), and in the years since, the childhood friends behind the craft distillery haven't let up — in fact, they're just getting started. We love the line of limited-edition whiskeys the distillery has been making with local grains, and we can't wait for the debut of the company's line of tequila, made in collaboration with a distillery in Mexico. Soon they'll be moving the whole operation to bigger digs, with room for a larger tasting room. We can only imagine what they'll do with all that extra space.
Yes, Total Wine and BevMo are just around the corner, but it's worth the trip to this South Scottsdale wine shop. Here, you can find great deals on bottles from all over the world, and the knowledgeable staff will be more than happy to help you pick out the perfect bottle for the occasion. There are shelves and shelves of French, Italian, and, of course, Arizona wines, and if AZ Wine Co. somehow doesn't have what you want, it'll be more than happy to order it. Every Thursday at 6 p.m., the store hosts weekly wine tastings, which are great gatherings for wine geeks who want to talk shop and compare notes.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Close to metro station; friendly and helpful staff; Wiener Kaffee with Austrian flair I missed a door or curtain for the shower
lately renovated (?), good design, no noise.
location, friendly service, cleanliness none
very nice hotel with no negative surprises. nice and clean rooms with good breakfast. i saw some people having discussions on checkout, which were resolved in the favour of the guests ... just double check the bill on checkout
Great location close to central train station and Berliner Tor station and excellent housekeeping service - room was very clean.
The hotel was extremely clean, the staff were very friendly, and overall, it was a pleasure to stay in this hotel. None.
the friendliness of the staff and the excellent service level the room was a bit cold, central heating issue the constant tic-tac noise in the room at night hours
The beds are a little bit small but acceptable. The location. Its surroundings are not proper for family to stay. (Many sex/porn shops are there on the way to central station.)
It was modern, the room was a high standard and relatively spacious. It was convenient for transport links.
It has a spa. Horrible internet. Unfriendly staff.
very friendly service, good food
A new hotel with great location - easy walk to city centre , or right next to subway stop. Very helpful staff.
The hotel is newly built and in very good location. The rooms was very small and services provided there are very poor.
comfortable and stylish.
I liked the cleanliness of the room, comfort, good mattress. Metro station is at the hotel corner. Indeed excelent N/A
The room and the hotel are like a million others. No useless details or particularities. In a weird way, such emptiness makes you feel at home. Though the entire hotel is smoking free, the room smelled of cigarette smoke.
New hotel located near city centre. Small rooms and long waiting times at reception, need more staff!
location, great breakfast (good value for money), rooms small but cosy and comfortable, the lobby's design The offer of drinks at the bar
close to metro station, good both for businness trip and/or city tour there were no safe in the room, also soap was missing. nothing special since i'm used to travel with my one stuff ;-)
The staff was perfectly attentive and doing a great job
The breakfasts were excellent The room was basic and needed redecorating
I had a room, which was in a bad condition. For a 5Star-Hotel this in inacceptable
meeting Udo Lindenberg who lives in the hotel rooms need serious update
location We booked the room with the breakfast buffet on your website, but at the hotel we were told the price exclude the breakfast. We were surprised and upset!!! We also had not any slippers in the room.
When visiting the hotel by car, the several roadworks and one-way streets arount the hotel make the journey more arduous than necessary.
The Hotel Atlantic Kempinski Hamburg is one of the Classic Hotels with a history of over 100 years. Great location, great value of money, kind staff, extrimely clean roon, free internet at the business center.We will always go back. Breatkfast is rather expensive (33 euro per person)
Very nice entrance area and breakfast facilities. Central location. Room absolutely not five-star-quality. Were sent to wrong floor to find room. Were charged for breakfast even though included in price - will be refunded. Cleaning started before leaving the room in due time before 12.
I have celiacs disease, they were really good at catering for this, a huge basket of gluten free breads, cereals and cakes turned up at breakfast and I was walked through which items on the buffet were gluten free, which included the nuremberger sausages. Add to this that the service is truly 5*, not always the case in 5* hotels, the high ceilings in the rooms, the pool, gym, sauna, gf steak tartare for supper, the view of the Alster at breakfast, it really can't be improved on. AND most importantly all of the staff, without exception, were friendly, helpful and went the extra distance to make sure you really felt looked after.
Very traditional, amazing room sizes, Renovation is on going on this traditional/historical hotel, they should respect a little bit for the resting hours of the guests during this renovation.
Well located. Impressive foyer and lovely fireplace I accept that I had a room which was on special, and assume has not been refurbished. The bathroom was perfectly fine but the bedroom was slightly dated. Torn curtains, old carpets. One large blanket would have been better. Bathroom robes should be standard.
Central location
everything excellent! no
The cleanliness of the room and decor was nice especially the bed was amazingly comfortable.
Friendly,in town centre, nice facilities,very kind assistance on tickets for Musical I find that the bed- room 8105 -near window was a bit poor in condition
Excellent hotel, we loved it! The personnel are very friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for access to the city centre and harbour area. The room and bathroom are modern, tastefully decorated, clean and spacious. Small details like bathrobe and slippers for our young daughter made a difference. Fabulous wellness/pool area. Of course if you stay in a 5 star hotel then don't be surprised by the higher price for drinks, breakfast etc. The advantage of location is the restaurants/coffee shops close by where alternatives for eating out is made easy.
Fast invoice printing at the checkout.
cleanliness, comfort, quiet, staff shampoo & shower gel replenishment
Good location. Stylish and extremely comfortable room. A lot of space in the bathroom. No Jacuzzi in the spa area. Though I mentioned it was my birthday weekend, there was no gesture from the hotel at all. Unlike other similar hotels.
Great location in a nice part of Hamburg. The staff was very professional and helpful in assisting with recommendations and making guests feel welcomed. Particularly Katherine at the front desk, who was very polite and taking time to discuss options.
fantastic location, quality of service Single rooms have really small beds I mean smaller then necesary in 5star hotel
The location, breakfast No Coffee or tea making facilities in normal rooms. Gym is very basic.
The hotel staff, especially the concierge were very helpful and courteous.The buffet-breakfast was very extensive and rewarding. The room was quite comfourtable with a nice view. The window panes overlooking the street are not insulant enough against the traffic noise and the wind. The curtains were moving even though the windows were shut.
The concierge staff were wonderful, always greeted you with a smile and were very helpful. The staff of Le Spa were also very friendly and made us feel welcome. The cleaning staff did a wonderful job every day aswell. The location was great, you could go for a run around the Alster Lake and the hotel provided water, fruit and towels in the reception when you had finished your run - that was a really nice touch. It was very expensive to stay there and we could not afford to eat in the restaurant. Likewise breakfast was extremely expensive (it is not included in the room price) which was a shame as the restaurant has a beautoful view over the Alster Lake
The place was clean and tidy, with a giant bathroom and nice shower. Included an umbrella to borrow and many other amenities in the room. Transit was further away than expected and the lower rooms have no view of the lake due to trees.
The fantastic back massage at the Spa! The jacuzzi was out of order for duration of weekend break.
Friendly and professional staff, Recption staff was outstanding smart, informative and precise, Cleanness of bathroom was a bit weak, Cleaner has overseen some marks at mirror , in toilet and bathtop...no quality check?
Indoor pool was great for the kids since the weather was terrible, bed linens were excellent, great large bathroom, and larger size room overall! Weren't able to check in an hour early after we arrived from our overseas flight with small children. This would have been helpful to our travel situation.
The food in the restaurant was extraordinary and all the staff members were well trained and very courteous.
shopping NO
weekend brackfast and view of the hotel and room luke view the number of somking room in the hotel it should be less comparing with non-smoking room
A few problems in the room were sorted out in minutes. Extortionate internet rates. Business Center out of the way and poorly equipped.
The spa facilities They took the bathrobes away after the first day, and accidentally my white shirt too
Costumer care...
Thought that the breakfast was delicious. Loved the pool and sauna. Jaquzzi was cold.
I think the location, the comfort, the luxury, the morning buffet, everything was very very good, and I want to come next year again.
Booked on the recommendation of my partner who'd stayed there on business and wanted to go back! Really enjoyed our stay, staff were superb and couldn't have been more helpful.
the friendliness of the staff is outstanding. The design is great too. The bathroom set up is not practical although it looks great.
Beautiful room. Good breakfast. Style of SPA -stronh green-orange colour, but anyway pool was good.
The Hotel Spa facilities were disappointing, the pool was cold and the jacuzzi too.There was no one to greet us to show us around the Spa or explain what to do and what treatments were available. The bed in our room was very small and the toilet area in the bathroom smelt of urine, which was unpleasant. We were awoken at 2.30am till 3.30am with noise. Would have liked tea/coffee making facilities.
Location, style, staff, breakfast, bar with atmosphere No
Very nice hotel, very design, very comfortable. 21€ per day for the Internet, this is pure robbery!
My dates of arrival were incorrect, the staff was very helpful and pleasant and made the necessary changes.
Clean efficient service accompanied by wonderful design and proximity to the best that Hamburg has to offer. The keyboard at the Business Centre was Swiss (I think) - optional "western" keyboard for English/Australian travellers would be practical.
Spaciousness, decore, location, staff, facilities all excellent
It was centrally located. It was.very clean and modern. They were great about an early check-in itime! The staff was very helpful and fluent in English! I would definitely stay here again!
Have stayed at this hotel for years and always there has been kind of easygoing atmosphere and everything works -
enjoyed my stay but staff not vrey helpful you had to wait a while to be served at the bar and the evening choice of food was not great
the location, the excelent rooms suggestion for improvement: one more door between the isle and the bed. It is pretty noisy when people are passing outside you door.
location is great and the rooms are spacious and comfortable, easy access to public transport rather poor value for money - and there were rotten apples at the reception desk
My son and I only stayed for one night. The lounge area was relaxing and the staff spoke good English. We did find the hotel rather expensive based on the fact that we were only there one night. The food was also expensive, and we therefore chose not to eat there.
The helpfulness and friendly nature of the staff. Clean and well organized room facilities with babybed Apart from breakfast on Sunday morning being very busy. But that is just a sign of the hotels success!
The staff were very helpful at all times and we would be likely to use it again if visiting Hamburg.
The hotel is really good. Breakfast - excellent! Room - comfortable. Separate toilete and bath in the room is rather strange detail.
Very good breakfast! No
Nice location - near the train station Piano bar with talented pianist Good buffet breakfast Inclusive public transportation ticket, first three days! Very, very, dated decor Separate areas of hotel, awkward Not good view from rooms in the back A bit of rudeness from staff a check-in
I was very pleased that when we arrived the temporary bed and crib for the baby were already in place. A nice touch.
the location of the hotel nearby the city center/shopping area - the breakfast buffet
Excellent sound insulation. The staff are courteous, the location is very good, the breakfast is ample and the beds are firm and therefore very comfortable. The TV selection is very limited and the quality of the reception is poor - or maybe it is just time to replace the sets. It would also be good if there were Internet access form iPads in the rooms as well.
Location was fantastic.Breakfast quality and selection was exceptional.
Location, Internet does not work,stay 4 nights and managed to be connected 1 hour. Same was reported several times to the hotel's front desk.
Very good service, nice and helpful personell in reception helping us with the arrangement of day/evening activities such as visiting Blankenesee and the geart show Der Köning der Löwen :)Great breakfast. Honestly nothing more to expect.
The location; facilities and hotel staff No
The breakfast, the room, the location, the free city transportation No
Pleasant historic hotel with new tower room if you prefer modern feel.Next to rail or metro link so can be at town hall sq in 10min.Also city circular tour bus and harbour cruise tour are 5 mins walk down some steep steps.Only 25euro taxi and 30min to airport.Can get train too. If you like to sleep with the window open then you will need the hotel supplied ear plugs! There is quite a bit of road rail harbour noise but that is the trade off for such a good location.The closed windows are triple glazed so it's quiet enough when closed.Would happily stay again.
Nice location overlooking the harbour and its activities, convenient for S and U bahn and walks on waterfront and St. Pauli. Plesant quiet location and nice decor (semi maritime romantic). the room Captains class was very spacious and comfortable Coffee/tea in the room, or access to a less exclusive coffe shop.
Nearnes to transportation . All of them, including interesting areas in the sourounding. At the begining It wass dificult to find the address, as It has no visible announcement. I came in walking from the Train station near by. and pass by with not notithing it. The internall access to the room wass measleading, both ways, to go to the room or to leave it, out of the building. They should be improved .
Hotel has very convenient direct connection with airport by using S1 Bahn. City round tour stop as well as river tour are close to hotel. I will appreciate if breakfast will be included in room price.
Good breakfast. Tasty food and great view from restaurant and bars. Smallest Carpaccio I've every time eat.
The position near the water was great. nice friendly beer bar. Room was small for the price, and there was repairs being carried out
Very good value and good location
Location. Breakfastbuffet no value for money.
Staff in restaurant were very welcoming despite the fact we were delayed en route and only arrived as the restaurant was due to close. Wonderful dinner and extensive breakfast in dining room with wonderful view. Our booking was for a room in the historic part of the hotel. We were 'upgraded' to a newer separate part of the hotel which was in fact disappointing as it lacked any charm and the air conditioning was not very effective.
It was very quiet with good heating (in a rainy, cold period). Free internet was an attraction though having to renew your ticket every 2 days was a bit annoying. And it was very convenient to transportation and the waterfront.
receptions so frindly and helpfull , decoration very nice loved it they cleaned my room without changing the bed sheets for 3 days same even the tawel just first day changed.need at least catel for hot water in the rooms.
The hotel is brand new and is very well done. You cannot be the price and the café latte is fantastic. I fear that because of the great price, in a few months the hotel will be torn and tattered
the location is really good - cl;ose to the historical city center (10 minutes walk), to the Reeperban (10 minutes walk), to the Winter Dom (the same). the enarest underground station is very close. The room is not big but new, light and very comfortable.
new, tidy, good design, comfortable bed, liitle bit small for two but perfect for one Breakfast was ok, but not big choise. The problem is that it is too much people during th rush hours and it was not easy to find a place to seat, queues for coffee, etc
veryu good location. good breakfast and value of money
Excellent. Very new and clean. Good position. Rooms a little bit small. Caos during breakfast.
perfect location, fantastic breakfast, well furnished rooms it was a little bit cold and I cannot managed it to make warmer ..
fabulous hotel with excellent and friendly staff
The sevice is wonderful. Before I checked in, they've already known my name. The first day I got there I had a cold so I asked if the kitchen could made a soup for me. They did and the next two days the waitress asked if I need to soup or not. And the location is in the center of Hamburg, main station nearby about 5 minutes walking, very convenient for shopping or traveling. There's only "one" computer provided for the business room guests in the public area. If they provide more, this hotel would be perfect.
location, internet facility, service
The hotel staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and the room was very tastefully decorated with an exquisite bath. no
The location is very convenient. The service was excellent. Room spacious modern and very clean
Very good hotel, Staff excellent. Great bed !! There was no direct lift from the 4th floor,down to the wellness centre. We had to go though reception.
top service and pampering. great spa facilities. middle of town. we'll be back.
great large and very comfortable rooms
service of staff and quality of the hotel in general are excellent.
The Staff was extremly nice!! During my stay it was extremly crowded because of a special event in the hotel. It is a pity that the bar is not -non smokeing-!
The hotel staff were without exception extremely friendly, courteous and helpful. We thought that it was time that an investment was made in new beds.
wonderful room and view; great breakfast no swimming pool or exercise opportunities
the location and the comfort the breakfast
One of the best hotels I've ever visited. Top location, top rooms, top service. period. It's become my Hamburg's favourite.
I really enjoyed my stay there, location superbe, decor and service/staff excellent. apart from the fruit flies which seemed to invade my space every time I was at breafast or diner!!
Room was spacious, well equipped and clean Breakfast is reach and fresh Hotel wifi was good checking emails and that's about it. Continuously disconnecting with subpar speeds. While it was better on cable, it wasn't much better.
consistent, excellent service despite changes in ownership over the years
This was my fourth stay at this fabulous hotel. The ambiance is superb, the attention of all members of the staff meticulous. I love this hotel and, if my age(80) and health allow, I may return next year.
I have known this hotel for more than 50 years. It has always been one of the world's finest hotels and remains so. It has great character, a wonderful location, extreme comfort and the best and most personal service to be found.
Style Courteousy
Perfect location in the beatiful and fun planten Om park and next to a train station that is only one stop from the central station. Can also easily walk downtown. The staff was friendly and helpful. Great value for money! The shower could have been cleaner
I can't believe that a hotel could keep receiving guests while they are doing a major renovation with loud, annoying noise, disturbing guests in the entire building. They have been doing this even on Saturday!
Amazing window view. Special in the Early Morning !
the staff were very friendly and the renovated rooms were nicely done but the building work meant it was not comfortable to stay in the hotel The renovation work meant it was noisy and dirty in the corridor areas. In the room there was a lot of plaster on the windowsill which had come down from the buidling work above. The phone did not work and the wireless connection was very slow.
It is the perfect Choice, very friendly staff, very clean rooms, a great location next to the botanical Gardens which also close to the city center, only 1 station away!!! It is Just perfect =)
great rooms construction, elevators are slow
We got a cheap rate through booking dot com and we thought it was quite luxurious for that price. The internet access did not work while we were there.
Modern design rooms, reception & restaurant areas only 2 lifts out of 6 were in operation, noise from 8am to 8pm, general feeling of 'a hotel under reconstruction'.
I like the GYM, suana & steam room, I can relax in the sauna after my exercise... cool Nothing, so far so good
The excellent treat of the hole staff and the confort are the best points of this hotel. The staff is wonderfull, helpfull and they solve us all our doubts and concerns. Very confortable beds and pillows, very nice decoration of bedrooms, quiet, nice views of the hole city, perfect shower. Near enough from city centre and shopping area with a short walk and next to all public transport. Taxis just at the front door all day. Everything was confortable and easy. As an example, they have got a couple of PCs with a direct acces on the main screen were you could print the boarding cards for your trip back. And its free! Really fantastic in all ways. Nothing at all.
Sound proving of the rooms are very marginal.
Clean, modern and stylish. The shower unit is somewhat exposed to the rest of the twin room making us prudish brits need to stare out of the window or pay close attention to a book whilst the other showered
Modern hotel, near the harbour. Surroundings undergoing major (re-)development. Clean, fresh rooms with cool open plan bathroom. Good breakfast! Wireless reception in room really poor.
beds to soft
The hotel is brand new and beautifully decorated. We had a wonderful shower instead of the often very high and slippery European bathtub. I would have liked to have taken the shower home. While convenient to the tourist buses, it was quite far from any metro stop. Hamburg must have some of the worst public transportation in the world. We only saw two buses operating on the weekend. We really had to take taxis to get anywhere. A hotel near the central station would be more convenient to the central metro line, but we truly enjoyed the comfort of this lovely hotel.
the service was excellent, and the room was very comfortable. There was nothing which I would complain about.
modern, clean, amazing room layout and design TV system slow, complicated, useless for me. Strange internet provider, 9.95 EUR per day for WLAN, should be included in the rate.
The location, fairly central yet quiet street and close walking distance to the harbour and metro station.
Good room, although a little compact. Toilet was clean but small No
the atmosphere and the comfort and cleanines of the room
Location and friendly staff

On the Shelf
A Profound Experience of Art, and Other NewsBy Dan Piepenbring
- Museums have a real, if enviable, problem on their hands—they're too popular. "Seeing masterpieces may be a soul-nourishing cultural rite of passage, but soaring attendance has turned many museums into crowded, sauna-like spaces, forcing institutions to debate how to balance accessibility with art preservation."
- A proposed virtual-reality edition of Ulysses sounds about as abstruse as the novel itself: "As a user of In Ulysses walks along a virtual Sandymount Strand, the book will be read to them—they will hear Stephen's thoughts as they are written—but these thoughts will then be illustrated around the user in real-time using textual annotations, images, and links."
- Fewer people are giving books as gifts—the number of gift-book sales fell by nine million in a year. (If you'd like to reduce the deficit and you need an excuse to give, today is International Tiger Day.)
- Trend alert: there's never been a finer moment to be a deceased performer. "Two thousand fourteen is only half over, yet the year in culture has already been dominated by people who are dead … I mean people like Michael Jackson, who, five years in the grave, performed at the Billboard Music Awards in May. And Rick James, who's been dead for a decade and who has a new memoir this year. And the great Philip Seymour Hoffman, who died in February and has a new movie out."
- From Disobedient Objects, a book about design's effect on social change, a look at the storied history of defacing currency.

This thing is a godsend!I have a 5 year old and a 7 year old, and they are very big into art right now. They especially love drawing and painting. This art station works so well because it has areas on both sides for my kids to work on their art. One side is a standing station where they can paint or draw, and the other side has an area to sit and work, and it also has several shelves. They get along, they get to share, and have a blast while doing it!

GSA Announces Source Release of Software Developed for ACES Program
October 3, 2001
Contact: Deborah K. Ruiz, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON, DC - The U.S. General Services Administration today announced the "open source" public release of Certificate Arbitrator Module (CAM) software in a move aimed at making further improvements under the agency's Access Certificates for Electronic Services (ACES) Program.
Part of GSA's Federal Technology Service, ACES is an innovative program which contracts with multiple, private sector, infrastructure service providers to deliver Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and digital signature services to federal users. The CAM software is what allows federal agencies and the public to work easily with multiple ACES service providers.
"The ACES digital signature product was designed to make it easy for the public and commercial sectors to securely conduct business with the government electronically," said Sallie McDonald, Assistant Commissioner for GSA's Office of Information Assurance and Critical Infrastructure Protection. "Open sourcing the CAM software is another step in making electronic government accessible to all."
"By allowing the CAM software to be freely accessed by all interested parties, we believe that the product will be improved and enhanced, as other software products in the public domain have been," said Robert E. Suda, Assistant Commissioner for GSA's Office of Information Solutions.
The CAM software routes, replies to, and basically manages PKI validation requests between user applications and appropriate certificate authorities. The open sourcing of the CAM software will allow interested parties, such as ACES service providers, federal government users, and other commercial service providers to modify the CAM software to reflect additional requirements, standards, protocols, or functions which can later be introduced in the next generation of software. The Open Source CAM Software is available at http://cam.fts.gsa.gov and http://cam.mitretek.org.
Specifically developed by Mitretek Systems for use with the ACES program, CAM was further developed to support both ACES and non-ACES certificate authorities. Mitretek is a private sector, non-profit scientific and systems engineering company headquartered in McLean, Va.
Mitretek will serve as the CAM Open Source Manager and will be responsible for the distribution and maintenance of the code, as well as the testing and review of modified code proposed by third parties. GSA and Mitretek will jointly serve as the CAM Open Source Review Organization, responsible for agreeing to new versions of the CAM code, as proposed by the CAM Open Source Manager, and ensuring the continued utility of the CAM code.
GSA is a centralized federal procurement and property management agency created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. It acquires, on behalf of federal agencies, office space, equipment, telecommunications, information technology, supplies and services. GSA, comprised of 14,000 associates, provides services and solutions for the office operations of more than 1 million federal workers located in 8,300 government -owned and leased buildings in 1,600 U.S. communities.

CHINO - Chino Police Department will increase its overtime budget by $100,000 to help fight an increase in crime tied to prison realignment.
The announcement was made at the city's budget workshop on Wednesday at City Hall.
"So far this year the city has seen a 12 percent increase in property crime and 5 percent increase in violent crime," said Police Chief Miles Pruitt.
The Police Department's 2013-14 budget represents a 3.6 percent decrease in its budget from the previous fiscal year.
Overall according to the city's proposed budget conclusion the 2013-14 budget contains increasing revenues resulting from an improving local economy as well as expenditure reductions through staffing changes and tight fiscal controls.
The city's General Fund budget presents an operating gain of $1.2 million with use of $1.5 million from reserves for the city's street rehabilitation project.
By the end of the fiscal year - June 30, 2014 - the city's reserve balance will be $28.2 million.
"The budget includes a 5 percent sales increase or $800,000 to the general fund," said City Manager Matthew Ballantyne.
Each city department head went over their budget for the 2013-14 fiscal year.
The departments: administration, finance, police, human resources, community development, public works, community service and redevelopment.
Despite redevelopment agencies being abolished, the city will continuing paying the debt for at least 30 years.
The workshop provided direction to staff on any modifications to the proposed budget in anticipation of a June 18 budget adoption.

Urban residence, Lawrence, Kan.
Studio 804, School of Architecture,University of Kansas
Lawrence, Kan.
"Looks like a bunch of friends got together and put something really unique together," the judges said. "It's a slam dunk." Indeed, the project offered 13 graduate students at the University of Kansas School of Architecture a chance to translate their classroom learning into a real building. Their goal? To provide an alternative to run-of-the-mill affordable housing by using quality design and workmanship and innovative materials.
With muscle power and ingenuity, the students made their own forms for concrete walls, countertops, and walkways, and salvaged steel from junkyards. They subbed out only the HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work. "It was important to me that we imbue this house with a design that reflects the technology available to us at the millennium," says professor Dan Rockhill. Manufacturers donated $23,000 worth of materials, including the house's skin of cement-fiber siding, and Lexan, a luminous, plastic-like surface the students used to extend the south wall.
"We've found that, many times, space that doesn't have a clear designation is taken over by the home's occupants in creative ways," Rockhill says. The house is owned by a single mother and her two young daughters, both of whom study dance and theater. The sunny bump-out, with its deep, continuous seat, has become their stage.
Project Architect: Dan Rockhill, Studio 804
General Contractor: Studio 804

Read the rules and sticky's or you will get banned.
Ok, here is another question for the moderators (so that I am not breaking [directly/indirectly]) any rules: HackPack is on redmine, but I still would like to post about it some place here on the forum, IDK where the most appropriate place to do that is, so before I waste my time writing something up, and yours for denying my improper placement... where should I put it??
XD Thanks.
Read the rules and sticky's or you will get banned.
I never broke any of those rules the first 10 times I tried to post, I will try to post about it again, thanks for your response.
Wait is this the Hackpack which is behind a registration wall and basically undownloadable anywhere else? What's so secret about it that you can't let someone download it and read through it without having to load up one more set of forum spam?
Still not underestimating the power...
There is no such thing as bad information - There is truth in the data, so you sift it all, even the crap stuff.
you have broke almost every rule
i am not going into discussion any more, rules are simple

A brand new bridge over Big Creek
(Parma Heights) - Local leaders and residents celebrated the Grand Opening of the Parma Heights - Big Creek Connector Trail linking Greenbrier Commons to Cleveland Metroparks Big Creek Reservation trail system.
The Grand Opening ceremony featured guest speakers Parma Heights Mayor Michael Byrne and Brian Zimmerman, CEO of the Cleveland Metroparks. The ceremony was held at the entrance to the trail located behind the N.E.O. Soccer Building in Greenbrier Commons, located at 6184 Pearl Road in Parma Heights.
Brian Zimmerman, Cleveland Metroparks CEO told Newsradio WTAM 1100 most of the cost was paid for through federal grants. It believes such projects helps Northeast Ohio retain and attract residents.
Brian Zimmerman & Michael Byrne
Parma Heights Mayor Michael Byrne explained, "The connector trail provides a convenient avenue to Big Creek Reservation for our residents while opening Greenbrier Commons at the heart of our city and our business district to the thousands of people who use Big Creek Reservation."
The new 1,000-foot-long trail and 116-foot bridge spanning Big Creek can be accessed through the existing all purpose trail in Big Creek Reservation and from two locations in Greenbrier Commons: the City's fitness trail by the entrance to the Cassidy Theater and via the new trailhead behind the N.E.O Soccer facility.
The trail features a unique stabilized aggregate surface composed of recycled brick and concrete. "The connector offers new opportunities for a wide range of activities including hiking, walking, jogging, nature discovery, wildlife observation and nature photography," added Byrne.

Hill led the BC women's team to a 14th place overall finish, fourth among the South Atlantic Conference schools that were in attendance at the first meet in the 2011 season.

Q. The colors I choose for photo mats usually end up looking all wrong. Do you have any advice?
A. Mats can enhance and draw attention to your photos, but the array of papers out there makes choosing a pattern or color difficult. Take your pictures with you when you shop and hold them against several papers that reflect colors in the photos. Notice what happens: Does the subject stand out? Is the photo overwhelmed? Also, keep these tips in mind:
New in Print
Great Scrapbooks, from Memory Makers magazine. Elevate your scrapbooking hobby to an art form with help from this book of more than 100 inspiring ideas and beautiful layouts. Learn new skills from easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions on paper piercing, puzzle pages, photo kaleidoscopes, punch art, photo mosaics, layered paper cutting, paper folding, pop-up pages and 3-D photos. If these terms sound like hieroglyphics to you, the illustrated glossary of techniques will clear things up. Patterns and templates for the projects along with a directory of suppliers make this a useful book for all scrappers. (Satellite Press, $25)
Spooky Alphabet
October is the time for little ghosts and goblins to roam the neighborhood looking for treats. Make your Halloween scrapbook pages suitably spooky with our spiderweb alphabet. Just draw crooked stick letters in white on a dark background, then connect them with webs. Make a spider by tying four threads into a large knot and trimming the legs. Draw more spider webs in the corners of the page and even add a vellum ghost or two.

It looks like Britney Spears is really making an effort to jettison anything she doesn't need, because two weeks after her Hidden Hills mansion went up for sale, she's put her Beverly Hills house on the market as well. You know: The one where she had her infamous breakdown before being wheeled out on a gurney on January 4, 2008. Talk about spring cleaning!
Located in the chi-chi gated community The Summit, the Mediterranean villa boasts five bedrooms, six bathrooms, and maid's quarters (in case you're still living in a previous century and have live-in "help"). The master suite has (of course) his and her baths, a fireplace, and a loggia, and the kitchen features top-of-the-line Viking appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a breakfast nook that may be too large really to be considered a "nook." There's also a pool, a spa, a beautifully landscaped property, and a three-car garage. Drooling yet?
Here, let's take a look, shall we? Here's the exterior:
The entry way:
The breakfast nook:

The kitchen:
A bedroom which I assume is the master suite, judging from the size:
And the pool:
It's actually pretty homy-looking, isn't it? That's somewhat surprising; celebrity mansions can be many things, but "homy" isn't usually one of them. This one looks quite cozy, though!
If you're interested in buying (it does have rather an interesting history, after all) and you've got a couple of million to Nancy Sanborn of the Sanborn Team is handling the sale. Just try not to barricade yourself in a bedroom with your young children and have a crazy police stand-off while you're there, okay?

MAYFIELD, Ky. Cumberland used a 16-4 run to end the game as the Lady Bulldogs pulled off a 62-46 victory Saturday at Mid-Continent.
CU (9-11, 4-4) played lethargic until the final 10 minutes of the contest when they executed much better offensively and picked up the pressure on defense, limiting the Cougars (7-14, 2-6) to just 13 points in the last nine minutes.
Jessica Pace posted her second straight double-double with 19 points and 10 rebounds, while Courtney Atkinson posted 12 points and Casie Cowan netted 13 off the bench, nine in the second half.
Cumberland led 46-42 with 5:23 to play after MCUs Chantiera Johnson hit a baseline layup, but a Blue bucket started the game-ending run for the Bulldogs on the ensuing possession. Cowan then hit a 3-pointer from the wing, the only one of the game for the squad, and Pace made a short jumper in the lane with 3:35 remaining.
Tasia Blue added another basket and two more free throws before Samantha Harper finished a fast break with a layup and Cowan hit two free throws with a minute left to put the game away.
The Bulldogs scored 21 points off 21 Mid-Continent turnovers and shot 42 percent from the field in the second after hovering around the 30 percent mark for almost all of the opening period.
Both teams started slowly, with CU making just 1-of-6 from the field with three turnovers in the first six minutes of the contest. Pace netted the first five points for CU, but the Bulldogs went more than four minutes without a point in the middle of the period.
Atkinson ended the drought with a bucket at the 8:16 mark and the teams traded field goals until a 9-2 spurt by the visitors gave Cumberland a 25-16 edge. Cowan made a layup to start to run, Atkinson added a pair of field goals and Pace had an old-fashioned 3-point play.
MCUs Ginger Gilbert nailed a trifecta off an in-bounds play with 1:12 to play in the half and Cowans 3-pointer at the buzzer was no good, giving the Bulldogs a 25-22 lead at the break. Pace posted 10 points and six rebounds and Atkinson added eight points for CU, while Gilbert lead the Cougars with eight points, including a pair of 3-pointers.
Cumberland hosts Lyon College on Thursday at 6 p.m. before hitting the road again next Saturday to face currently top-ranked Freed-Hardeman.
IN THE MEN'S GAME -- Chris Fergusons 18-footer with 9.3 seconds left was the game-winner as Mid-Continent won a see-saw affair 77-75 over Cumberland in Saturday's second game.
Ferguson made 7-of-12 shots after the break and the Cougars (5-16, 4-4 TranSouth) won their third straight contest, a game that featured 22 lead changes and 20 ties.
The Bulldogs (13-7, 4-4) shot 55 percent in the second half, erasing a nine-point deficit with 6:50 to play behind 3-pointers from Michael Sweat, Kyle Upton and Daniel McFadden.
Sweat posted his second straight 20-point outing with 20 points and four 3-pointers, while Lamar Brinkley added 15 points and eight boards. Mid-Continent also shot lights-out after intermission (50 percent), with Marcus Bowins making three of the teams four trifectas in the second half.
Steve McBorrough netted 14 points for the Cougars and Bowins finished with 13.
The Bulldogs started the game slowly on offense and could not buy a layup in the entire half, but put together a 14-5 run in the middle of the period to take a 24-19 advantage. Seven different players scored during the stretch, including a putback by Ajuma Jaramogi and a 3-pointer from Sweat. Brinkleys bucket finished the spurt, but consecutive trifectas by Charles Tillman pushed MCU back ahead.
Marcus Johnson made two free throws with 1:30 remaining in the half for the final two points by either team. CU did not score over the last 2:58 of the period and trailed 36-34 at the break.
Cumberland plays Monday at Auburn Montgomery at 7 p.m. and hosts Lyon College on Thursday at 8 p.m.

What I Did This Summer: Conduct political research in Istanbul, Turkey
"What I Did This Summer" follows a number of University of South Carolina students this summer as they work, travel, and explore the world. Many of them are blogging about their adventures. This is the fifth story in the series.
Check out Hannah Miller's blog at http://web.sc.edu/wpmu/hannahmiller.
A three-week trip to Japan after her freshman year in high school put Hannah Miller on the path to what she hopes will be a lifetime of travel.
"It was my first trip overseas, and I loved meeting people from a different culture," said Miller, who has traveled to Europe several times since then. "That trip was the impetus for my dream career of international travel and diplomacy."
Hannah Miller
Now a rising sophomore at Carolina with a minor in Japanese and a double major -- international studies and economics -- Miller continues her world travels this summer in Turkey.
"I'll be in Istanbul for seven weeks interviewing businesspeople, politicians, and top-level university students about their feelings on accession into the European Union," she said. "The EU is an economic and political union of 27 member states, located primarily in Europe and committed to regional integration.
Turkey's flag
"Turkey is a crucial country because its integration into the EU forces Europeans to grapple with issues like what it means to be European, and if Islam and democracy are truly compatible," said Miller, who is from Atlanta and received a McNair Scholarship to attend Carolina.
Another part of Miller's summer adventure is taking classes in Turkish and sociology at Bosphorus University in the northern part of Istanbul. She is staying in a university residence hall with two other students -- one from Azerbaijan and one from the University of Michigan.
"I want to do diplomatic work in the future, and I think Turkish is a language similar to Japanese, which I already know, and the job market would be good," she said. "The culture is really exciting and there are lots of cool things to do.
"While I'm in Istanbul, I'll also be interning with a family friend who is the editor-in-chief of a political journal, Turkish Policy Quarterly, which is published in English," she said. "The internship will give me access to prominent political thinkers I can interview."
Amy Mills
One of Miller's professors, Dr. Amy Mills, is an assistant professor in the Department of Geography who earlier in her career lived in Istanbul for two years. She encouraged Miller to look into summer programs in Turkey, and prepared her academically and emotionally for being in a Muslim country.
"Turkey's integration into the EU is an important process that has lately begun to falter," said Mills, who also is a faculty member in the Islamic Studies Program in the College of Arts and Sciences.
"Hannah's research will examine the opinions and perspectives on this situation among those in Turkey who are currently (or will be in the future) involved in policymaking, administration, and economic development," said Mills, the author of Streets of Memory: Landscape, Tolerance, and National Identity in Istanbul, published in 2010.
Miller is financially able to make the trip to Turkey through a combination of a Magellan Research Grant, Honors College Passport Travel Grant, and Walker Institute of International and Area Studies International Experience Award.

Viki - from Auburn, CA
Both of you are correct! Vegetable shortening makes an excellent pure white buttercream icing. Lard can sometimes be off-white, which will affect the color of your icing, and can sometimes have a slight flavor that's not pleasant in icing. The icing you describe, with beaten egg white, sounds similar to our Snow-White Buttercream Icing. Made with Meringue Powder, there's no need to cook this icing. Another similar icing recipe is Seven Minute Boiled Icing, also made with Meringue Powder instead of fresh egg whites.

Fit the decorating bag with tip 16 and fill 1/2 full with medium consistency icing. Hold the bag at a 45° angle at 3:00 (9:00 for left-handers). Hold the tip slightly above the surface.
For right-handers: Squeezing out icing with even pressure, curve tip down and around to the right as if writing a "c".
Left-handers will pipe c's by starting at the bottom edge squeezing and moving up to left and around.
Repeat to complete the border, using a steady, even pressure.
To end, stop pressure, pull tip away.

WATCH: Ted Nugent calls President Obama 'subhuman mongrel'
Ted Nugent calls President Obamaa "subhuman mongrel" and then implies he's a "chimpanzee" in a new interview.
The rocker, reality TV star and amateur political commentator was speaking with Guns.com when he unleashed the inflammatory language.
Complaining about the state of the country, Nugent tells his interviewer, "I have obviously failed to galvanize and prod, if not shame enough Americans to be ever vigilant not to let a Chicago communist-raised, communist-educated, communist-nurtured subhuman mongrel like the ACORN community organizer gangster Barack Hussein Obama to weasel his way into the top office of authority in the United States of America."
Nugent later says, with reference to the deaths of Americans in Benghazi, Libya in 2012, "I would call it inflammatory speech when it's your job to protect Americans, and you look into the television camera and say what difference does it make that I failed in my job to provide security and we have four dead Americans."
"What difference does that make? Not to a chimpanzee or to Hillary Clinton, I guess it doesn't matter," added the musician.
For good measure, he also says that Clinton has "spare scrotums."
Yikes. Check it out below!

It is said that if one could hear an angel sing, it would have the voice of Uluwehi. Uluwehi, which means "growing in beauty," is a name fitting to this spirited talent. His sweet, soothing voice, soaring harmonies, intriguing arrangements, and powerful falsetto stylings – which were already well-known within Hawai´i's hula community- stunned the Hawaiian music industry in 1996, with the release of his first self-titled CD. "Ka Manawa Pono" received 3 prestigious Nä Hökü Hanohano award nominations (equivalent to a "Hawaiian Grammy.")
Since that time, Uluwehi has toured non-stop. He has been critically acclaimed from California to New York, Canada to Japan. He has performed at one of the world's most coveted venues, Carnegie Hall. Uluwehi continues to garner new fans with every performance, pushing Hawaiian music ever closer to the global world music.

Brevard, N.C. - The Brevard College Tornados baseball team out-hit visiting Mars Hill 28-27 on the day in the doubleheader, but nine BC fielding errors led to nine unearned runs as the Lions managed to sweep the doubleheader and take the weekend series from Brevard with 12-5 and 9-5 victories on Saturday afternoon.
Kramer Clark and Ron Patterson had five hits apiece on the day for Brevard (11-15, 3-11 SAC) and Derek Ham and Brett Brinson had three-hit games, but it was not enough as the Tornados saw their two game winning streak end. Adam Lewis had five RBIs on the afternoon to pace the Mars Hill (14-18, 7-8 SAC) offense, while Greg Smith (2-2) and Tony Hearrell (2-2) picked up the victories for the Lions on the mound.
Game One: Mars Hill 12, Brevard 5
Box Score
A seven-run eighth inning broke a 5-5 tie as the Michael Brittian and Coty Pate hit back-to-back home runs to give the Lions the victory in the first game of the doubleheader.
The Lions and Tornados traded runs in the first as Lewis singled up the middle, scoring Dalton Hardee from second base for Mars Hill, while Zach Merriken drove in Patterson with a base hit to centerfield to tie the game after one.
The Lions plated three in the second and one in the third to take a 5-1 lead. Mars Hill saw two runners score on passed balls during the run as Mars Hill took control of the game early for starter Tyler Stephenson.
After several scoreless innings, the Tornados knotted the game back up in the bottom of the sixth. Clark scored on Kameron Armacost's one-out base hit to centerfield and Armacost came in on Derek Ham's single to cut the lead to 5-3. Randy O'Dell followed with a double in the right center gap to score Patterson and after Stephenson loaded the bases, Ethan Pressley was nicked by a pitch to bring home Ham to tie the game up at 5.
In the eighth, the Lions chased two BC relievers as they sent 10 batters to the plate with the majority of the damage in the inning coming off the bat of Brittian's three-run shot to right field. Lewis added a two RBI single in the inning and Pate greeted BC reliever Alex Litaker with a home run to the left of the scoreboard.
The Tornados were unable to mount a comeback in falling in the first game of the doubleheader, evening the weekend series.
Game Two: Mars Hill 9, Brevard 5
Box Score
A five-run inning in the fourth on the backs of two Brevard errors allowed Mars Hill to withstand a furious BC comeback in the final innings as the Tornados dropped the second game to the Lions.
Mars Hill plated runs in both the first and the third innings as Brittian drove in Smith with a base hit in the first and Lewis drove in Smith in the third, before the Lions exploded for five runs in the third to stake MHC starter Greg Smith to the 7-0 lead.
The Lions added two more runs in the fifth as Hardee's sacrifice fly brought in two as the throw trickled away from the BC catcher to put Mars Hill up 9-0 before the Tornados answered in the bottom half of the inning.
Patterson and Clark hit back-to-back one out triples to right centerfield and O'Dell followed with a base hit through the left side of the infield to put Brevard on the board.
The Tornados added another run in the sixth as Christopoulos drove a two-out double to left center, scoring Brinson, setting the stage for the bottom of the seventh.
Brevard sent seven batters to the plate with Clark and O'Dell crossing to score to cut the lead to 9-5, but Smith retired the final BC hitter on a grounder in the infield to end the game.
The Tornados remain at home on Wednesday, March 23rd, as they host Milligan College at Gil Coan Field in a non-conference doubleheader. First pitch is set for 1 p.m.

So you want to trace your roots. Well, you're not alone. These days, family history is experiencing unprecedented popularity, a craze Time magazine has dubbed "Roots Mania." And if you've already begun dabbling in genealogy, you know this hobby really is an obsession.
It's kind of like the enthusiasm die-hard sports fans exhibit at playoff time. Finally finding that ship manifest of Great-great-grandpa's journey from Hamburg to Philadelphia feels like winning the Super Bowl. True, genealogists (usually) don't don their ancestral countries' flags before they hit the library stacks. But the congratulations you'll get from your fellow researchers is akin to the high fives passed around the football stands after the game-winning touchdown.

A dear, well-intentioned soul gave me a copy of Cake Wrecks: When Professional Cakes Go Hilariously Wrong, by US author Jen Yates, who shares cake disasters with the world through her daily blog. The recently-published book, based on Yates' blog, was a gift: "Hope this is good for a giggle after a long day's baking!"
I can hardly bear to have it in the house! Have visited the blog a couple of times at the suggestion of colleagues. The whole concept leaves me cold. Far from being hilarious, it seems sad and cruel to laugh at other people's mistakes and misjudgments. A more appropriate response, to me, is compassion. If one is in a supervisory role with the baker, much closer oversight, some instruction and encouragement. If the customer, the right of refusal and certainly some sort of immediate substitute and/or refund and compensation.
Yates only chronicles professional cake disasters, so there is an argument that could be made in the general vein, "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen." That's one of the supporting reasons for restaurant reviews. The other, apart from giving critics an opportunity to craft scathing criticism - often more fun to write and delicious to read than praise - is so the rest of us can steer clear.
However, a good food critic LIVES to find true genius. What do a blog and book like Yates' say about a world where snide'n'snark serve no other purpose but entertainment?
I'm truly interested in your opinion, especially if it differs from mine. Am I missing something?

I was wondering, how do I avoid getting the extra rows in the wp_post table (the inherit & drafts) or do I just have to go & delete them later.
And if I want to add addy custom databases to my wp theme. like for a game for example or to display a series of images...just add the new table in this database?thx all & have an awesome day.d
The Better WP Security plugin has a database cleanup utility that can delete autosaves, revision history, and drafts.
But--this isn't something that's necessary to do. A database is designed to hold lots of information and read and write to it in a quick manner.
And if I want to add addy custom databases to my wp theme. like for a game for example or to display a series of images...just add the new table in this database?
You really shouldn't be editing the wordpress database directly.
If you need to include additional data with your posts and pages, you can add custom meta fields.
You can also create your own Taxonomies and post types.
For displaying a series of images, use the media library's features. Or, if you really need some advanced functionality, the NEXTGen Gallery plugin is reasonably popular.
Wordpress is a very powerful platform...there is very little (if anything) that you actually have to do manually.
Thanks Force appreciate the links & info will check them out.to be a bit more specific. I was thinking of doing a semi "chose your own adventure" site.so the user would have to login. at the end of each level some items are awared.so i would need a db or table for the images of the awarded icons. so the user could see it.one for the level the user is at...maybe more? still just organizing this.Open to any advice.
Regarding post revisions, you can configure number of revisions WordPress will keep in wp-config.phphttp://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Post_Revisions
Thank you Ronalds. will check that out as well.d
I've never encountered a choose-your-own-adventure website, nor had a request for one. So, that's certainly an unusual endeavor.
As for awards, take a look at this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-badges/
You also might have luck with search for badge plugins, rather than award plugins.
I thought it'd be an easy and entertaining way to test php and databases, possible get outside users who wanted to waste a few minutes to test it...I well may be off base.
Using wordpress as a platform for this might not be the best for what you have in mind.
You might want to think about tackling this project without using a CMS to build off of.
I think you are right actually.

AZ and Sonora Seek Business Alliances
(KFYI News) – It will soon be easier for businesses in Arizona and the Mexican state of Sonora to work together and trade products or services.
The Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (THCC) is in the process of putting together a business resource guide that will promote trade between the two states.
Mexico is already Arizona's #1 foreign trading partner. The THCC says in 2012, Mexico exported $6.8 billion worth of products to Arizona, and our state's exports to Mexico totaled $6.2 billion. It also says Sonora's middle class is among the fastest growing in all of Mexico, thanks in part to a doubling of production predicted for this year at Ford Motor Company's assembly plant in the Sonoran capital of Hermosillo.
"We need to let people know, in no uncertain terms, that there is unbelievable opportunity in Mexico-Arizona trade," said Mesa mayor Scott Smith, who was at the announcement at the Arizona Commerce Authority office in downtown Phoenix.
"For too long, businesses in Arizona and Sonora have known too little about each other," added Tucson mayor Jonathan Rothschild. "Potentially lucrative markets and business partnerships have gone unexplored."
Rothschild said Arizona and Sonora are natural trading partners due to their common border. "The border at Nogales is no barrier to business activities, but a lack of information is," he said.
The guide is expected to be released this spring.
For information on being included in the guide, visit www.azstarnet.com/b2bform .

someone mentioned he was fighting on the 20th last month?
someone mentioned he was fighting on the 20th last month?
ahh seen he is 2-0
i think his last win was a flying triangle if i remember rightly.
3-2-0 Pro Fighter managed by TFL Sports Agency
Aye it was:
He won his first via TKO over Nathan Thompson before that.Paddy Pimblett looked as calm as ever in his second professional outing against Scotland's Dougie Scott. Tying up a wrist, he jumped for the triangle as Scott tried to pressure him against the cage. He locked it up on the mat and secured another great victory - "The Baddy" surely has a big future at just seventeen years old.
is there no video of his last fight?
dear lord, someone pm this guy a link asap!!!!
'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
I liked to see paddy fight in Scotland
This is the most fun i can have without going to jail
He will get found out once he goes in with a decent puncher
Got a problem? Odds against you? Call the Equalizer
He is 17, his stand up looks pretty ok to me for someone so young, give him a few years and if he carries on like he has, the kid could go far.
Saw him at Cage Contenders, seen a few of his ammy fights, I really rate him as a prospect to be honest.
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
Hes very young so they should bring him along very slowly. Too many decent young prospects diving into the deep end too quickly and fucking up their records. There's no rush. Given the right time to develop he could be very good.
