Piskiou,Vaches Sauvages, Buffler, Prairie Beeves—
October/November 1979 | Volume 30, Issue 6
And buffalo remain fertile in old age. Some of the Texas breeder Charles Goodnight's cows reproduced until they reached thirty-five. Their fecundity made up for the more than 50 per cent loss in each year's calf crop, which meant about 7,500,000 small carcasses annually. Late blizzards laid low herds of them, high water along the Missouri drowned them, sweeping their bodies to lodge wherever receding waters left them. Audubon's party one night slept on "a low island covered with dead Buffalo calves, creating a most unpleasant atmosphere to breathe." Calves often made the mistake of adopting any nonbuffalo foster parent that happened along, even a man or a horse (calves of domestic cattle will make the same mistake). One adopted Meriwether Lewis, out for an evening walk. It dogged his heels until he regained his canoe and paddled off. Other calves followed less disinterested men, who encouraged them to tag along all the way to camp to make a veal stew; fur trader Alexander Henry's men brought such innocents to the fort daily. Indians brought little stragglers to camp for their children to play with and, when the playing was done, butchered them. Sometimes the children killed them with their own bows and arrows. And undoubtedly, any calf, away from mother's protection, unable to keep up with man or horse, became dinner for wolves.
Nor did the mother always protect her calf. If she found herself hard pressed by pursuers, she sometimes deserted, running off to leave him to the wolves. Meriwether Lewis observed, "The cows only defend their young as long as they are able to keep up with the herd, and seldom return any distance in search of them." If a calf found he couldn't climb a bluff the herd had ascended, his mother would watch awhile as he scrabbled at the cutbank, but then she would turn and follow the others. Men who wanted to begin a buffalo herd found it easy to gain a nucleus by driving a herd through rough country and picking up the calves that couldn't follow:
Luckily for buffalo survival, calves kept up with the herd amazingly well. Once a newborn calf traveled twentytwo miles by road in a herd being moved, traveled back home again with his mother that night (cross-country in deep snow), and was herded back the twenty-two miles the next day—over sixty miles before he was three days old. And their speed and endurance increased rapidly: the William Hornaday expedition in 1886 chased a five-monthold calf fifteen miles, using a series of three fresh horses to run him down.
Careless cows often swam calves into spring floodwaters too strong for them and clambered out on the far bank without them. Hundreds of other calves died from falling through thin and melting spring ice, vanished to appear again in an ice-free ripple far below, drowned, then floated downstream to join dozens of brown buffalo carcasses that punctuated the riverbank.
Bulls and cows, too, filed out onto rotten March ice only to fall through and drown. Each spring, during the days of the breakup, thousands of buffalo carcasses floated down Western rivers, a continuous line of brown floes. One year on the Qu'Appelle, trader John McDonnell recorded 7,360 of them drifting past before he quit counting; Alexander Henry saw "drowned buffalo drift down the river day and night," and while traveling one May, the stench from drowned buffalo was so great he couldn't eat his supper; Maximilian, Prince of Wied, on his Missouri River trip of 1833, heard reports of complete dams formed of buffalo bodies, dams which, others have claimed, caught silt to form islands.
These drownings make buffalo appear poor swimmers, yet accounts of riverboat travelers up the Missouri abound with descriptions of them swimming this river, many of them struck by the wheels. Passengers lassoed swimming buffalo. They swam "so close together… as to make it look rather inconvenient"; they hung low in the water, just the top of heads and an occasional hump visible. In such style they paddled about in lakes and crossed the Republican, the Arkansas, and the Missouri, traveling where they pleased. Yet in the spring, four or five buffalo at a time, finding themselves adrift on a floe, would stick with it and ride to whatever crack-up lay ahead, rather than swim a river they'd swum before.
They learned nothing from numberless watery accidents. They rushed into swift waters to be swept over waterfalls. Grizzly bears hung around the Great Falls of the Missouri to feed on carcasses so killed. In mid-winter, crossing rivers on the ice, they would "rush in a dense crowd to one place; the ice gives way. …" In March, 1866, as many as 1,000 buffalo fell through the ice on the South Saskatchewan River but did not drown; they were frozen in and starved.
Deaths from accidental drowning reduced the herds far more than any other accidents. Far more than prairie fire that left herds with "the hair singed off; even the skin in many places is shriveled up and terribly burned, and their eyes are swollen and closed fast… staggering about, sometimes running afoul of a large stone, at other times tumbling down hill and falling into creeks.… In one spot we found a whole herd lying dead.…" Sometimes entire groups mired themselves in boggy mud and died in mass starvation or were eaten alive by wolves or bears. But, mostly, falling through ice did them in. Each spring the stench from carcasses snagged on riverbanks polluted the spring air, and rotting meat polluted the spring freshet.

Honda Losing Money on Imports to U.S. Including Popular Fit, Hybrids
Tiffany Kaiser
June 12, 2012 10:50 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Both Honda and Acura vehicles exported to the United States last year accounted for less than 6 percent of its 3.1 million sales worldwide
Honda was recently the first Japanese automaker to admit that it is losing money on exports from Japan to the United States.
According to Honda, both Honda and Acura vehicles exported to the United States last year accounted for less than 6 percent of its 3.1 million sales worldwide.
"Under the current exchange rate of 80 yen per dollar, our export business doesn't make any profit," said Fumihiko Ike, Honda CFO. "Definitely, the absolute number of exports to the United States will be decreasing.
Honda plans to cut shipments of some of its vehicles to the U.S. in an effort to offset these losses. However, the Japanese automaker's long-term goal is to move more production to North America, where it will also buy the parts and components needed for its vehicles.
Honda Fit
Currently, Honda builds 85 percent of the vehicles it sells here in North America, but the need to increase this number is significant. Honda keeps selling the exports -- such as the Fit, Insight and
CR-Z hybrids
-- despite losing money because it wants to retain customers in the U.S. However, producing vehicles in the U.S. and then selling them in the U.S. will be cheaper for Honda and will allow the automaker to avoid what happened last year -- a shortage.
In 2011, Honda didn't have enough cars over in the U.S. to sell, so continued shipping money-losing exports for the sake of keeping customers.
Honda's solution is to shift
production of its Fit car
to a plant that the automaker plans to open in Mexico in 2014.
According to Ike, Honda currently doesn't make any profit on Fits sent to the United States, and because it's not profitable for Honda, it's also not profitable for car dealers. But the company keeps selling it here because it's a great car for younger generations and it wants to hold on to these customers. Once the plant in Mexico is complete, the Fit should be profitable. But for now, this particular vehicle is much more profitable in Japan where there are government incentive programs for fuel-efficient vehicles.
Honda CR-Z Hybrid
Honda is also looking to shift hybrid vehicle production to North America within a few years. The automaker is already looking for local hybrid component suppliers that carry lithium ion batteries.
The need to shift hybrid production is also significant, considering combined sales of the Civic Hybrid, CR-Z hybrid and the Insight hybrid totaled 31,582 units last year.
Honda will also build the
Acura NSX sports car with a hybrid drivetrain
in Ohio within a three-year period.
"We are not just simply shifting assembly from Japan to the United States," said Ike. "Of course, we have to expand local procurement, otherwise it's not cost-effective."

430N Day/Auto/Night Setting
I seem to being having issues with the brightness setting on my 430N. I have it set to AUTO and figured that was tied in somehow with the Auto setting on the headlights. Headlights ON = Night; Headlights OFF = Day Setting.
Well, its seems to do neither. I have to manually switch it to Day in the morning and Night in the evening. Any idea how to fix this? Thank you in advance! |
Re: 430N Day/Auto/Night Setting
drop your dash lights down one click and the auto brightness will work. If you have the dash lights at the max the nav will be at max bright all the time also.

Re: 430N Day/Auto/Night Setting
Brighter interior lighting is bad for good focus 'down the road' at night. It's why you don't ride down the road at night for very long with the overhead light on. It has to do with your rods and cones and much too boring for JG. But dimmer at night is better if at all possible. |

NYC Residents On Track to Spend $215 Million This Year At Area Walmarts
Despite its claims to the contrary, Walmart has been trying to infiltrate New York City for some time now. The mega-chain even has a Walmart New York City website and has donated large sums to city programs. Their spin has always been that New Yorkers really want a Walmart, and maybe they're not so off the mark: people from New York City are set to spend $215 million at Walmarts outside the city this year, a 10 percent increase from last year. (Sorry, that Crain's link is behind a subscriber paywall.)
According to Crain's, company figures show that Manhattan residents had the biggest spike in sales of all; they spent $65.1 million at Walmarts this year. The data was compiled via credit cart info and other data from stores in areas close to NYC, and is from the period from January to May (though we're wondering how you could account for people who don't pay with credit cards. Asking for zip codes? see below!).
That $215 million figure represents a loss of $7.7 million in tax revenue for NYC, according to an economic consultant Crain's spoke with.
A poll back in July found that 60 percent of NYC respondents were in favor of a Walmart in our city.

Presumably, this new financial report will give Walmart plenty of ammunition for their theory that New Yorkers are begging for a cheap, ethically shady superstore. Thing is, unions and politicians don't want the store here; Councilman Charles Barron of East New York (where Walmart is said to want a store and also one of the neighborhoods that city government wants classified as a "food desert") summed it up to NPR in February. "Don't even think about coming into east New York," he said. "We're desperate for jobs, but we're not going to take anything. We want jobs with dignity, jobs with integrity, jobs with self-respect."
Walmart hasn't yet responded to our request for comment.
Update 4:20 p.m.: We just heard back from Walmart spokesman Steven Restivo, who clarified how the numbers were obtained: "It's based mostly on electronic transactions so it's a conservative number to say the least," he said. He added that New York is the top-performing market for online sales.
When we asked whether the numbers meant Walmart would push harder for a store in NYC, Restivo said "I'd tell you it's no secret we're evaluating opportunities across all five boroughs."

7 Tips for Cleaning Hardwood Floors
1. Vacuum your floor every week. You probably do this already, but it always bears repeating. The reason: underfoot, the fine grit in dust is just like sandpaper and will slowly but surely wear through your wood floor's finish. So a good vacuuming protects the finish as well as keeps up its appearance. Use an attachment with a brush or a felt surface that runs along the floor. Attachments with rotating brushes or a beater bar can scratch the finish. Disengage the beater bar on an upright. If you don't feel like hauling out the vacuum, a dust mop or one of the newer microfiber sweepers (such as Swiffer) will work just as well.
2. Watch the hairspray and the furniture polish. Both of them can cloud your floor's finish. Wipe them up immediately with a damp cloth. For a more thorough cleanup, spray with non-ammonia window cleaner.
3. Keep out the rain. Water can not only ruin the finish on a hardwood floor but can penetrate deep into the wood and stain it. Close windows when you're expecting rain. Put trays under potted plants and, of course, immediately wipe up any water you see.
4. Remove residue with no-wax wood floor cleaner. Keep it in the hall closet or another convenient location so that you can get to it quickly to clean up small problems before they become big ones. Wipe up spills and dirt immediately; then use the cleaner to remove the residue. Dirt can damage the finish or get ground in. Liquids can damage the finish or stain the floor.
5. Know the rules about using waxes and restorers. You can rejuvenate a wax finish with more wax. But never use wax on a surface finish such as shellac, varnish, or polyurethane. It not only makes the floor far too slippery, it also interferes with subsequent finishes. If the finish is polyurethane, use a polish made for polyurethane. If it's another type of surface finish, get a general-purpose floor restorer, test the restorer on an inconspicuous area to make sure it won't peel off.
6. Use an extra-long "walk-off " doormat. Doormats, inside and out, earn their keep and then some. While vacuuming and spot-cleaning are great, keeping the dirt out in the first place is even better. Get a 4- to 6-foot-long "walk-off " mat for the front door. The longer the mat leading up to the door, the more people will rub dirt and moisture off their shoes as they walk in, even if they don't stop to wipe them.
7. Protect high-traffic zones with area rugs. Walking across an area several times a day eventually wears down a wood floor's finish. Nice-looking throw rugs are the easiest way to reduce the wear. But make sure they don't have a backing. Vinyl or rubber backing traps humidity, which can ruin your floor's finish and stain or damage the wood.

LONDON (AP) -- Amy Winehouse is still hitting music milestones after her untimely death last month.
Britain's Official Charts Company says Winehouse's Grammy-award winning "Back to Black" has become the best-selling album in the U.K. in the 21st century. The Skanner News Video: Back to Black plus..
The company, which tracks music sales in the U.K., said Wednesday that "Back to Black" overtook James Blunt's 2005 debut album to claim the title this week.
Winehouse's second album had jumped to the No. 1 spot on the charts shortly after the soul singer was found dead in her London town house on July 23. An initial post-mortem failed to determine cause of death, and Winehouse's family said Tuesday that toxicology tests showed she had no illegal drugs in her system when she died.
An inquest into Winehouse's death begins in October.

The Roller Coaster Ride of Deccan Chargers
The topsy-turvy days of Deccan Chargers are over. If we glance at the franchise since its inception in 2008, the performance of the team was disturbingly agonizing. Apart from the awesome run during the 2009 edition Indian Premier League, the team has nothing to show on the basis of performance.
In January 2008, fans rejoiced when the Hyderabad franchise was bought by Deccan Chronicle Holdings Ltd for $107 million. After making a disastrous start (finishing last in the league) in the 2008 edition, the owners made three big changes - changing the colour of the jersey from beige and black to sparkling silver and blue, replacing coach Robin Singh with Darren Lehmann and replacing VVS Laxman with Adam Gilchrist as the skipper.
In the 2008 season, the team lined up the most aggressive players, but they failed to click as a team. They had stars like Adam Gilchrist, Andrew Symonds, Shahid Afridi, Scott Styris, Rohit Sharma and Herschelle Gibbs, who were known for their slam-bang cricket. The bowling line-up also looked quite exiting with R P Singh, Nuwan Zoysa, Chaminda Vaas and Pragyan Ojha. The team was tagged a favourites to win the league, but ended with the wooden spoon.
After the debacle of 2008, the owners made a lot of big changes - coach, captain and even the jersey colour. With some fresh faces from the domestic circuit, the team looked quite different. They dumped non performing assets - Shahid Afridi, Herschelle Gibbs and signed new faces - Ryan Harris, Fidel Edwards, Dwayne Smith, Tirumalasetti Suman, Abhinav Kumar and Harmeet Singh. After the complete makeover, they started the league with a bang. The performance in 2009 is already regarded as the most impressive comeback in IPL history. In the final against Royal Challengers Bangalore, they successfully defended the total of 143 and won the match by 6 runs.

Australia missed out on hosting production for Will Smith's latest Hollywood blockbuster - I,Robot - but it may just have a shot at the sequel. I,Robot, directed by Australian Alex Proyas, will open nationally on Thursday. "If I,Robot continues to be successful, we will probably be here next year," Smith said during a press conference in Sydney ahead of the Australian premiere tonight. "I love the idea. I loved working with Alex so I,Robot II or anything he is willing to make (I would do)." Proyas said Australia lost out to Canada with the big budget film primarily because of the rising value of the dollar and the lack of studio facilities in Sydney at the time. "It is a complex issue ... and it actually became all around easier to shoot the film and more economic to do it in Vancouver," he said. "We have a great reputation (in Australia) but it really is the harsh financial shifting economies of the world." The Australian division of 20th Century Fox has high hopes for the science fiction film which topped the US box office on the weekend, taking about $US52.3 million ($71.67 million) in ticket sales. The film is set in 2035 and is based loosely on the short stories of Isaac Asimov. It follows the story of a Chicago police officer (Smith) who cannot get used to life where robots are common assistants and workers for their human owners. The machines are programmed to obey Asimov's three famed laws to ensure they do not injure a human or allow any human to be hurt through inaction. While no robot has ever committed a crime, Smith's character is convinced one of the machines has carried out a murder. "We are not really trying to predict the future," Proyas said. "We don't have a crystal ball but we have tried to create a realistic interpretation of the way technology is going." Smith, who was nominated for an Oscar for Ali and has appeared in such films as Independence Day and Men In Black, said I,Robot was the "most complete" movie he had ever worked on. "I just feel like the level of performance, the level of special effects, the story, everything is just the most complete film that I have ever been lucky enough to be a part of," he said. Smith has been a regular Sydneysider in recent years with wife Jada Pinkett-Smith playing one of the leads in The Matrix trilogy. The couple set up house in inner Sydney and while Smith said a sequel to I,Robot may be shot in Australia, there are no plans for a permanent move to Australia. "At this point, you almost have to live in Los Angeles for the film business," he said. "There are plenty of other cities we have wanted to live in (but) it just doesn't work for our lives at this moment." When asked his opinion on Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11, Smith said he had seen the documentary but joked that he didn't like to discuss politics. "Politics and religion, no sir," Smith said. "I watched Fahrenheit 9/11 and I thought it was a very interesting take but it is absolutely a take." Smith said the documentary had made people "wake up and pay attention". "The problem, even more than what the film might be saying, is American apathy. "So if this film can make people go out and look at who these companies are and who these people are, and try and figure out if it is true - anything that breaks the apathy - I am all for it." But Proyas said he hoped Michael Moore would make a documentary feature about Prime Minister John Howard. "I hope Michael Moore makes a film about John Howard, that would be nice," Proyas said. AAP

Regardez: Cavotress & Other Projects
Designer Julie Wheat is known about the city of Charleston and beyond as a rockabilly who stocks an insane archive of vintage clothing. I have had a few chance meetings with Wheat, who back in December 2010 help on the "Going Rogue" shoot as seen in issue 2 of VENT Magazine. But on Tuesday I had the pleasure to see first hand. We discussed our upcoming collaboration as well as her design aesthetics. Seated on her houndstooth couch that was the focal point of an expansive living room. Which could limelight as a sewing room or in this case showroom. We chatted about favorite designers, or at least i did. "There are so many designers out there but it's hard to choose a favorite when I haven't met many of them in person. I am so new to the industry as a designer myself, I feel it's just not right for me to choose at this point in my career." said Wheat,After I spoke about my recent encounters with Vuitton Creative Director Marc Jacobs. Designers aside Wheat, implores that she is simply concerned with clothes!
This became all to clear as we lumbered a few racks from the forest of racks in a storage room at her Mt.Pleasant home. Her love of fashion seemed to be with her from childhood says she in a vintage Gianni Versace polka dot sheath dress. Wheat's line of Bardot-esque of swimwear called Cavortress is made for the woman who cavorts. Like in that movie Blanket Bingo, not in a slutty way!
So since I am moving to NYC in 2 weeks I thought it would be a great idea to partner with some of my favorite locals. I pulled together a rack of pieces from Julie's Archives that will be on sale along side my own rack of rags and designer pieces. Rhett Lightfoot Boyd who stocks Cavortress will be hosting us and of course his shop will be open as well to outfit you. So between the three of us you have the chance to find the perfect thing. I will be selling items for the home, some art, clothing and loads of books and films. So please if you in the Charleston area make a trip to 69 Spring St at The Rogue Wave Surf Shop for the Tres Frais Summer Sale. This coming Saturday August 13, 2011 8am-6pm I will also be giving a special gift with every sale from my shop.
Regardez: RWSS and Adam Kimmel SS2012
Rhett (Creator and Owner of Rogue Wave Surf Shop) is the epitome of surfer turned purveyor of a lifestyle brand. Adam Kimmel,for his first runway presentation presented the Surfer, but not the typical surfer, the modern surfer. This modern version of the classic archetype would not be caught in a pair off trunks off the beach but instead in a relaxed unstructured suit.
SIGHT|SOUND from High Seas Films on Vimeo.
This idea is what drives Rhett to carry clothes and accessories that are both well crafted but have a honed look. Rogue Wave Surf Shop ( 69 Spring St Charleston,SC ) located in a quaint unassuming building might be overlooked if not for the rack of sun bleached vintage tees and longboard on the porch. Once you cross the door your plunged into a surfers heaven. Rhett Lightfoot Boyd Jr who is the perfect host offers up drinks, loads of knowledge about every item he stocks and interesting stories about the space which the store occupies.Discover the likes of Bunker Spreckels surfing's divine prince of decadence, or brands like Apolis, Billy Kirk and Riviera Club. I picked up the film "Sight Sound" starring Mikey Detemple who actually weeks ago came to Charleston to premiere the film in the shops backyard. I can't wait to watch it and the other film Rhett let me borrow from his personal library.I am sure it will be the perfect chaser to a summer which is nearly over.
LeRoy Grannis and his legendary photographs will forever be burned in my mind. Especially when I think of the surf,surfers,and surfing. The late Lee McQueen used his image of a boy surfing in a black suit as the starting point for his Spring Summer 2008 Collection. I really regret not buying the shark head screenprinted tee back then but I have since made up for that.

Regardez&Ecoutez:Band Of Outsiders Tavi and I.
Band of Outsiders fw 2011 from VENT on Vimeo.
It is so strange to me that one Tavi and I just so happened to attend this first actual runway presentation by Scott Sternberg for Band of Outsiders. But even more strange that we are kind of in the same place with our blogs. On March 27,2011 Tavi posted about the thoughts she was having during the show while seated next to Anna Wintour.
"This is the outfit I wore when I found myself sitting front row next to Anna Wintour at the Band of Outsiders show. Yep, found, as though the moment "this is the end" rang out in the room set to Jim Morrison's voice I'd snapped out of myself for fifteen minutes til I stumbled upon a hollow body vaguely resembling someone familiar and decided to run away with it. I couldn't tell you what the clothes presented looked like. I couldn't tell you what anyone was wearing or what I had written in spontaneous texts to spontaneous people while waiting for the show to start (something about math class? What they had for lunch that day, maybe?) And I couldn't really even tell you what I was feeling. At that point in the day, in the week, in the Fashion Week and all those that came before, I think that if I were to respond truthfully to the many obligatory questions of how was I, it would've been "N/A." I felt like I was watching everything going on around me through a window. Usually I could see out of it but every once in a while I was forced to look at my own reflection, which was less fun.
I wanted to be mature and witty and polite and strike up a conversation with Anna Wintour, I really did. But like, it was the end of the day? And I was exhausted, in so many ways? And not prepared to enter a room as the last one to be seated and find out two seconds before sitting next to Anna Wintour that I was sitting next to Anna Wintour? And I was wearing the sweater Kathleen Hanna gave me and felt kind of in the middle of an overdramatic identity crisis, like I had no right to wear the sweater OR sit next to Anna Wintour? And when I did look around a bit, no one looked happy and it was kind of a huge downer? So I let myself be kind of shy and quiet that night, to join the rows of sullen-faced people who looked as though they secretly wanted to be at home with their pets wearing comfortable clothing and eating fattening food.
Anna Wintour was perfectly polite when we exchanged standard greetings and goodbyes. But it doesn't matter how much you like or dislike Anna Wintour, even if you feel unfazed by her or her sunglasses or Vogue, even if you feel, as I did, like one of the only people in the room who isn't after her job. You will feel intimidated. It is unavoidable.Of course, it's more the idea of Anna Wintour than the person, who was just a lady with a bob in a sophisticated dress sitting with her daughter at work. But that's kind of what Fashion Week is, a lot of facades and all that. At this point it would be really helpful if that Doors song had a lyric mentioning smoke and mirrors or something, but it's mostly stuff about sex and a guy killing his dad, so, uh, nevermind.
Fashion Week is weird. It is very high schooly. Someone will take that and decide that it means Fashion Week highschooliness is getting me down hard without realizing how highschooly what they're doing is. I love fashion but it's disappointing when you have to sift through a lot of junk before you get to, like, the clothes, and the whole point of it all. It's more disappointing when the clothes aren't very interesting. Lately I've been looking to other places for a creative outlet and for inspiration. I miss following magazines and obsessively checking style.com the way I used to but something is different about it now. A year ago I got to go to Paris to interview John Galliano at Dior, and a couple weeks ago today he said he loved Hitler and got fired. Fashion photographs look more posed and the Rayanne Graffs I meet at school more inspiring. I only really miss being obsessed with fashion the way you miss any aspect of a former self, in a nostalgic way, not necessarily as part of a desire to go back. Now I'm more intrigued by mixing fashion with the other stuff I've been enjoying. What's that idea that one person had, about combining your ways of thinking so that you could hear a song as a color and taste a food as a pitch in a song? To me that's much more interesting than relating fashion to fashion, to like, combine mediums, and absorb as many songs and movies and stuff that I can and let all the references intertwine until it's something that makes sense to me. I guess that's what my moodboards are, and outfits are a way to translate it so it feels like part of my identity.
And it's nice to not always share all of that. It's nice to keep some things to myself. It's nice to go to school events and V-Day in the church basement and start a band and make collages and zines and mixtapes and keep a diary and write love letters and snail mail.
I guess the Anna Wintour thing just made a lot of that much more obvious. It wasn't until I got home that I realized how vast the difference is, and how one side of it is nicer to just visit every once in a while, get out of it what I get out of it, ignore or laugh at the rest, and bring the enjoyable stuff back home to add to my collection of all that stuff I'm trying to absorb.
That fell apart into being really train-of-thought, but once I used the "reflection" metaphor in the first paragraph I started feeling really ridiculous and overly serious. None of this was supposed to dramatically hint at anything, other than maybe that my blog is turning away from fashion a little, naturally. How depressing would it be if I was that obsessed with only fashion for three years? That's how old my blog will be in a few days. Strange."
I use the point she is making to say that I love all the experiences that I have had thus far with fashion but wish to allow myself growth in what ever form it presents itself. VENT Magazine is one example but it is pulling me away from my original starting point and wearing me down. I LOVE Fashion but blogging is now work and no longer the outlet it once was. Perhaps I am feeling this way because after what will soon be two years since Undergrad at SCAD I am without a design job and many steps away from living in NYC.I still have not even shared my experience at NYFW this past Feb. totally because I am so spent. Articles,Interviews,Fashion Weeks,Fashion Shows,Press Junkets, Events,and After Parties are all the tip of the iceberg. But I am not complaining I just feel lost at the moment and am figuring out the direction my life is taking. As far as posting on this blog I know that when I can I will. Here are the pics I snap with my iPhone during the Band Of Outsiders FW 2011 show. Special Thanks to Stacy Smallwood of Hampden to letting us tag along with her and Tomoko Lee of 495news showroom. I cannot begin to tell you how many dreams came true for me at this show! Grace Coddington(American Vouge),Anna Wintour,Kanye West,Kirsten Dunst,Humberto Leon(Opening Ceremony),Aziz Ansari(Friend),Donald Glover(Community),Josh Peskowitz,and Brad Goreski were just a few of the faces I remember runing smack into while at the very intimate show.

Regardez:NYFW Day 2 Ruffian, Zac Posen and Buckler
On Day 2 I hit the ground running or should I say slipping on patches of black ice in my Lanvin shoes all the way to Lincoln Center for the Ruffian show. I had met Claude Morris and Brian Wolk last May in Savannah at a SCAD event. So when I recieved the invite to see their FW Collection I was excited to say the least. My after taking my seat on the second row the show started about 45mins after that, standard for shows at LC. Lorenzo Martone took his seat right in front of mine which if I have to look past someone it could have been worse. The collection entitled Tuxedo Park consisted of all the typical elements of evening wear but was interesting to see this idea on the body of a woman interpreted in lace, fringe, chopped taffeta, satin and sequins. The clothes had a bit of a masculine edge but was still very feminine. There were several jackets and gowns that would look fantastic on a woman of any age. After the show,instead of trying to fight my way out of the Studio tent were the show took place I struck up a convo with Adrianne Pasquarelli of Crain's New York Business who was seated next to me. She asked me what I thought about the show and we talked until the tent had all but emptied with the exception of a few people. Our conversation ended up become the topic of an article she writes. Instead of going backstage I spoke to Lorenzo for a quick second just long enough to introduce myself. After I went to Times Square to meet up with Jai she had an appointment at the Zac Posen showroom so I went along with her there.
Zspoke is the diffusion line for Zac Posen his collection was perfect for the modern woman looking to pull back on spending big bucks but wanting more from her clothes. Everything from the bags to the jackets and evening gowns are more than desirable. The showroom smelled of peonies which added color the the long wooden tables that they sat upon. Ben who showed us the collection was super accomidating answer Jai's questions and my few questions like "Which bag was Zac's favorite?". On our way out we ran into Zac who was running back into his studio with a rouge piece of champagne colored satin.
After Zspoke we had about and hour before Buckler which was to take place on the street. We took lunch at Soho Cafe and warmed up for a bit before making our way to the Buckler show.The AAU show was that night at 8 but after a $35.00 cab ride from Brooklyn I missed the show that started almost an hour late.

Of all the things that will be on our Super Bowl Party table from the chicken wings to the hot dogs to the jalapeno bites, I must say that the thing I am looking forward too the most is the dips. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I love dips. Whether creamy, spicy, hot or cold, you will generally find me standing directly in front of them with chip in hand ready to scoop up all of the goodness. This love of dips means that I could not possibly let Super Bowl week pass without sharing a dip recipe with you. So I present to you this Bacon Cheese dip with cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, sour cream and green onions.
I must warn you: this dip is thick. Really thick. I actually considered calling it a spread at one point. But after trying it with potato chips I realized that it pairs really well them. So find some thick cut potato chips, allow the dip to come to room temperature and dip away. If potato chips aren't your thing, you could spread this on crackers or even more Super Bowl Snack-ish, potato skins.

Anyone else would probably have been keen to the fact that most "mud" is not, in fact, "mud" at all.
Unfortunately for this kid, he gets a nice dose of reality splashed onto his face. -- A yellow reality that smells a little like stale coffee and asparagus.

A Toledo man accused of helping orchestrate a robbery has been arrested and scheduled to appear in Toledo Municipal Court Monday.
Matthew Underwood, 26, of 1106 Norwood Ave., is charged with one count of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. He was held Tuesday in the Lucas County jail in lieu of $75,000 bond.
In court documents, police accuse the suspect of aiding the planning and execution of an Aug. 27 robbery of Flop Cafe, 3325 Glendale Ave.
Police allege the suspect gave Michael Nelson, 27, of 3533 Airport Hwy., a gun to use and called Nelson several times to ask "how the robbery was going to take place."
Police stated they used phone records "verifying Underwood's involvement."
Nelson, who also was charged with one count of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon, posted a $75,000 surety bond Thursday and was released from the county jail.
His preliminary hearing is Oct. 4, also in the Toledo court.

University sin Fronteras (USF) (San Antonio, TX) was born from the movement building work of Southwest Workers Union, a twenty-three year old grassroots membership-based social movement organizing for environmental and climate justice, low-income worker and migrant organizing, community civic engagement and youth organizing and leadership development through political and popular education.
University Sin Fronteras works to establish a social movement studies program for organizers (young and older) and community leadership in order to make critical and liberating education accessible to excluded communities and people. USF will implement a social movements studies program curriculum based on shared knowledge for the undergraduate level up through the graduate school level. Their work will develop dynamic pedagogy and research based on shared learning (theory and practice) while establishing a digitalized archive of and for progressive social movements in the US and Puerto Rico. The inaugural class of 25-50 students will commence in the Fall 2012.
University Sin Fronteras received a $4,000 Bold Frontiers grant in 2012, funded by Saguaro Fund and The Social Justice Fund.

Given that Giggs and possibly Scholes, along side the return of Fletch are likely for next summer. Which players do you think will be leaving us and how many inbound transfers do you realistically expect in the summer ?
We'll get a central midfielder at the very least. I dont thing giggs/scholes staying will change that. Maybe a right back as well. I reckon berba and owen will leave. Anderson's future might be shaky as well.
I think we will sign at least 1 CM but depending on the likes of Scholes and Fletcher then maybe 2. Otherwise we are pretty well stocked and will only buy if a bargain comes about, and maybe a few young prospects.
We'll buy a single established midfielder. Nothing else on the park needs immediate tending to. It's alot like 06 summer when we only bought Carrick. We may buy one young winger.
I've given-up on a central-midfielder, it's almost at the stage that the academy prospects can be given their chance in the first team (Petrucci and Tunnicliffe possibly, Pogba if the contract mess is resolved in our favour) so maybe the old "we can't sign experience because it will block the youth coming through" excuse will actually have merit next season. I wouldn't be surprised if we see another defender brought in, to prepare for a life after Rio and to help ease the pressure on Vidic's return. Given our injuries in that area, I think Sir Alex would have an eye on that. I'd like to look at left-back as well, but we probably should give Fabio more games before committing funds on that position. Young/bargain strikers and wingers are always possible, we've been linked with a few somewhat consistently, though I can't see the need. Departures could have a surprise or two (like with O'Shea last summer) but you'd have to think Berbatov would want to move on, and Owen's contribution can't really justify a new contract for him. The key thing is keep hold of our most important players, which with Nani's new contract seems to be a good bet.
Kuszcak will leave, that's for sure. Owen might go too. From "better" players, I can see Park leaving tbh. I know he was great player and servant for the club, but Oshea and Brown were all that too, and we sold them too. I hope Macheda will not be sold, and go on the loan in some Championship side, where he will play regulary. As for Berba, I think he will stay. As for signing new players, I don't believe that will hapen. Maybe one or two talented players, nothing more.
If Owen and Berbatov do leave, I would like to see Demba Ba join. I'm sure the media will be expecting a playmaker to join too but I reckon that could come down to how Cleverley does for the rest of the season and if Scholes stays on. I do believe Scholes will stay though.
We've got as much chance of a top central midfielder signing as Liverpool have got of winning the league
We have to get a midfielder. If the supposed £20m price tag on Javi Martinez is true then not going for him would be madness. Hopefully a few promising young lads too though we're generally well stocked in most areas.
1. Can't see us signing a CM with (possibly) Scholes and Fletch returning, and with Pogba and Tunnicliffe lurking with intent - and not to mention Giggs staying another year. The idea of us buying a Sneijder/Modric type is out of the question. 2. Owen is definitely gone (i would be shocked if he was retained). 3. Kiko will likely be sold in the summer. His loan spell with QPR is basically him being put on display for potential buyers. 4. Berba will probably stay given that he's likely to get some minutes at some point when the likes of Rooney, Welbeck, or Hernandez aren't available through injury/suspension etc. 5. Bebe will probably be loaned out again since his injury stopped him from making a mark this year. 6. PIG and DeLaet are as good as gone. 7. As for inbound players, I can see Fergie going for one off big money splash on an attacking player (possibly Gotze). Our squad depth is quite good for next year, so no reason to fiddle with it unless we can land a very good, established player.
Bale is the one player that could make the biggest difference to United. Apart from Messi and Ronaldo obviously.
Only really need a CM so thats what i hope we're targetting. If we do get an established quality player there, i'd fear for Ando's future at the club. No other major signings though i'd expect both Owen and Berba to leave and maybe even Park. Cina, Martinez would be too similar to Carrick i feel. Would be surprised to see us go for him. 2 typical "continental", for the want of a better word, midfielders Sir Alex's 11 would be surprising.
Not for me. Even from Spurs itself, Modric would be the one that'd make the bigger improvement to our team.
Why is Fletcher likely to return? It's not exactly a condition that heals over time. We needed a midfielder before we heard about his condition. We still need a midfielder. I think there will be little activity on both ends. 1 or 2 players in. 1 or 2 players out. Kuzsczak is definitely on his way out. Think he might well be the only one. If we lose a striker we will get a new striker as well.
Fletch has targeted himself to return for the beginning of next year, just as Vidic is. In Fletch's case, there's nothing to suggest he can't come back and even if he didn't, the likelihood that Scholes and Giggs will be around another year means that Fergie won't be feeling any pressure to indulge in transfer forum fantasies.
Harry will leave Spurs and we'll sign Modric. We'll also sign another player that alot of people will go "WTF OMG FERGIE IS CRACKING UP" and then he'll prove to be a great addition.
It is very rare that I am dedperate for one particular player to sign for United. Bale is one such exception. Mafe for United!
Aside from the central midfielder that has been mentioned. I think the squad is crying out for a left footed winger. I'd rather it wasn't Bale, for one any fee involved would be well over the top and I still think he is a bit too predictable. Sure he has pace in abundance, great control when running at speed and his crossing is brilliant. But he hasn't got the skill in tight situations, when players get in quick and tight, which all too often happens when teams play us. But hey, I'm not a Bale fan boy. Not his fault, I think the constant overhyping of the Inter game and how he was being touted as up there with Messi and Ronaldo just grated on me. I'm sure he would be a good signing for the club, just one I don't see happening.
This makes absolutely no sense to me given the quality of our current wingers in contrast to our midfield. I couldn't give a shit about Bale. If we're going down that route I'd take Gotze over him in a heartbeat.
Yet again people claim we don't need a midfielder, and yet again I'm completely fecking baffled in every which way about that.
I'm sure he does. You got tot have that kind of mentality. But the disease he has can just prop up at any time. He'll never play a full season of football again and therefor can't be relied on to be first choice.
I don't get why people are so keen on a left footed winger. To replace Giggsy who hasn't played on the left wing in years? Nani is better on the left than pretty much any left footed player we could buy, the fact that he's right footed is irrelevant (he also has a great left foot)
Yeah that's possible. I'm guessing Fergie will shop around but won't pull the trigger on a big transfer since he probably feels he can squeeze another year out of Scholes, who alongside Carrick and the others, can get the job done in CM.
Not sure what is funnier, Cina's annual request for midfielders and claim that we are doomed if we don't get it, or United proving him wrong every seadon.
You say this despite the fact that I've said right from the start of this campaign and throughout that we will win the league. Get your facts right, Cnut. When have I ever said we're doomed or anything close to that? I find it pretty damn hilarious that you think spending 30m+ on Bale is a great idea.
this bugs me Park is a fantastic squad player - very effective I'd be pleased to see Pogba sign I'm not buggered about a top midfielder right now with Carrick/Scholes form - Fergie has talked about Modric regularly but I can't see it happening a lot depends on Fletcher/Owen's fitness though
The need for a new CM is a bit overstated. Scholes, Carrick, Cleverly, Ando, a bit of Phil Jones here and there, and a possible return of Fletch, alongside Pogba and Tunnicliffe - is more than enough to get the job done. We've operated on less than that this year and have had a stellar season.
In a season where we've had to play our best striker at CM and have had to recall a player who retired 6 months back to play in the position, its a tad naive to say that United has proved those who said we need a CM signing wrong, wouldnt you say? Also, suppose we got bale, you'd drop Nani?
To be fair, we United aren't exactly proving him wrong. In our games this season, we haven't exactly been great in midfield. A lot of teams have dominated our central two. I know we're still in the running for the title, but our midfield really needs freshening.
I know a lot on here pin our midfield hopes on Cleverley and Ando, and rightly so because of their talent. But one is injury prone, and the other is both injury prone and inconsistant. Scholes can't be relied on all the time, and he's getting very static in midfield as it is. Carrick is good, and while Jones has shown glimpses of his potential in midfield, I don't think anyone knows if Fergie plans to play him there long term.
One front this year could be multiple fronts the next. Squad cohesion is more important than the individual players who make up a squad.
Against the best teams our midfield has still been really exposed. We bet Spurs on Saturday because Ferdinand and Evans were immense, and 2 moments of brilliance from Young, our midfield was frankly, taken apart at times. Scholes and Giggsy are ancient, Fletcher is diseased, Pogba might not stay, Morrison left, Ando is fat. Cleverly is made of glass. Jones isn't even a midfielder. Carrick is literally our only guarantee there and he's 31 next year. Our success in the last few years, and continued success is because the rest of our team is so good that it has masked the frailties in the midfield.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Muhammad Ali was back home Thursday night to honour an ex-president, Grammy winners and young adults for their roles in fighting for humanitarian causes.
The former heavyweight boxing champion was surrounded by family and friends for the awards presentation that turned into a main event in Louisville. Recipients of the inaugural Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Awards included former President Jimmy Carter and singers Christina Aguilera and Michael Bolton.
Ali was seated at a table in the middle of the hotel ballroom but never took the stage during the three-hour event.
Ali's wife, Lonnie, said the awards represent an extension of Ali's legacy of promoting social causes, his focus since his retirement from boxing in 1981.
"This is what we've always dreamed about, passing the torch on to others and inspiring them to do the work that he has done himself around the world," she said. "A lot of the things he used to do around the world he can't do anymore. So it's important to support those who can, who are doing the good work."
The 71-year-old Ali is battling Parkinson's disease. But he can still draw a crowd — and awe. During a musical presentation, the crowd of about 700 watched photos on a large screen that showed Ali with world and religious leaders and children. Another showed him holding the torch at the opening of the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta.
"I have so much admiration and so much respect and love for someone who truly has been a fighter in so many different ways," said Aguilera, who received the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian of the Year Award.
Aguilera was recognized for her role as an anti-hunger ambassador for the United Nations World Food Programme. She also has been a global advocate for fast-food company Yum Brands Inc.'s World Hunger Relief campaign to raise awareness and money to end hunger.
"From my heart, it really means a lot to be recognized for what's most important to me, and that truly is to connect with people on a universal level and use my voice to try and help inspire others to then use theirs," she said after receiving her award.
Carter, the nation's 39th president and a Nobel Peace Prize winner, received a lifetime achievement award bearing Ali's name.
Carter was unable to attend, and his son Chip accepted the award on his father's behalf. The former president, who turned 89 on Tuesday, has crisscrossed the world since leaving the White House more than three decades ago to promote efforts to resolve conflict, promote democracy, protect human rights and prevent disease in many of the world's poorest countries.
Chip Carter called Ali a close family friend and said the boxing great used his influence to help promote peace and human rights in Africa during the Carter presidency. Ali stood to shake hands with Chip Carter at the end of the ceremony.
Carter said his parents have spent their lives speaking up "for the rights of those who have the least."
"They are leading advocates for human rights and peace in the world," he said. "…They sometimes failed, they sometimes succeed. But they always try to do the right thing, to right the wrongs and to alleviate the suffering that they find."
Bolton received the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Award for Gender Equity.
The singer-songwriter brought the crowd to its feet with his version of "When a Man Loves a Woman."
He was recognized for his work with women's groups and members of Congress to pass the Violence Against Women Act. He continues to raise awareness about domestic violence and has helped enlist other men to take up the cause of eradicating it.
"There is no mistaking it, gender equality is the only acceptable future for our world," he said.
Meanwhile, six young adults and teenagers from around the world received Ali Humanitarian awards for exemplifying core principles espoused by Ali. Those principles are confidence, conviction, dedication, giving, respect and spirituality.
Winners included a 25-year-old Ugandan who formed an anti-poverty organization that promotes self-reliance and an American teenager who started a foundation that has provided shoes to thousands of homeless and disadvantaged children.

We're greener here than most
Washington is already well-known for being a green state. We've got unmatched natural beauty, strict environmental regulations and a population that truly cares about the environmental legacy it leaves for the next generation.
This is, after all, the place that inspired PEMCO Insurance's "Northwest Profile No. 17: Relentless Recycler," one of several ads poking fun at how folks in the Northwest are "a little different."
Thankfully, this is one case where the stereotype matches reality.
A new report card published by the Association of Washington Business offers more evidence that Washington is, in fact, among the greenest states in the country.
The state ranked in the top 10 in 15 of the 18 categories included in the 2014 Competitiveness Greenbook, a study that compares Washington to other states in a variety of metrics such as per capita carbon emissions, use of public transportation and energy efficiency.
In five of the categories, Washington ranked among the top five states in the nation.
None of this is likely a surprise to the folks who live here, but it's worth remembering as elected officials and state policy makers consider adopting even tighter environmental regulations — regulations that will likely come with a cost to the economy.
Things like cap-and-trade schemes, a carbon tax and a low-carbon fuel standard — which are expected to come up for debate in the next legislative session if not sooner — might be appropriate to consider in states that are lagging behind in environmental protection.
But are they too aggressive for Washington?
It's good to be a leader on environmental issues. It's better to be a leader on environmental issues and the job market.
The latest Greenbook, which is a follow-up to the original 2011 Greenbook, not only shows that Washington is green relative to the rest of the world, but it's also improving.
In the 2011 report, Washington state contributed 0.26 percent of the world's carbon emissions. In the latest Greenbook, the figure dropped to just 0.21 percent.
Washington is improving compared with other states, too. In the 2011 Greenbook, the Evergreen state ranked ninth-lowest in the country for per capita carbon emissions at a little more than 12 metric tons. In the 2014 report, the state improved to eighth-best at slightly more than 10 tons.
Of course, one of the reasons that Washington is among the greenest states in the country is the abundance of clean, renewable hydropower.
And we're using more hydro than we were even a few years ago. More than 75 percent of Washington's electricity now comes from renewable hydropower, according to the 2014 Greenbook. That's up from about 70 percent in the 2011 report.
Wind is providing more of our power, too —5.6 percent now compared with 3.3 percent a few years ago.
The increase in hydroelectric and wind power percentages and a drop in the percentage of electricity produced from coal and natural gas mean that Washington now produces less than 10 percent of its electricity from fossil fuels.
That's down dramatically from the 2011 Greenbook when the figure was nearly 20 percent, and it's far below the national average of 69 percent.
What does all of this mean?
For starters, it serves as further confirmation that Washington is already a leader when it comes to the environment. And it means that we're not resting on our laurels.
We can always look for ways to improve, but we should be proud of the position we're in now — and resist attempts to sacrifice the economy in an attempt to make a good thing slightly better.
Kris Johnson is president of the Association of Washington Business, Washington state's chamber of commerce.

I was at home depot the other day looking at the new 3650 and wanting to know if anyone here has attempted to make one for the 3612/2424. It looks like a solid dust collection for the saw and would love to hear if it can be done for the 3612.
No announcement yet.
dust shroud for 3612/2424
eric, there are inexpensive aftermarket dust hoods that you can purchase that will enclose the bottom of you 3612. Most come with a 4" outlet. Penn State, Rockler and others carry them. For an example, go to http://www.pennstateind.com and type in DT4 in the search box.
What I did with mine was to make a dust hood out of a piece of scrap MDF and a 4x3 PVC closet collar. The 4" hose to my DC fits over the 3" outlet of the closet collar. I also enclosed the back of the saw using ¼" hardboard cut to fit and flexible magnet strips glued to the hardboard for mounting the hardboard to the back of the saw. The magnet strips make removal and reinstallation of the back pieces very easy as my current design requires me to remove the back when I have to tilt the blade for miter cuts.I decided to change calling the bathroom the "John" and renamed it the "Jim". I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
dave thanks for the reply. I am currently running that setup and always looking to run a better system. the shroud on the 3650 looks to be much better system and I am wanting to know if anyone has tried it. Having the shroud looks like it would get the dust more efficiently as it is closer to the source of the dust.

The Ruby-Horsethief section of the Colorado River, from Loma, Colorado, to Westwater, Utah, is a 25-mile stretch of mostly flatwater with sections of Class I and II. This section of the Colorado runs through beautiful red rock canyons and has many day hike opportunities offering both solitude and exploration. The Black Rock section is composed of rock known as Vishnu schist, which dates back about 1.7 billion years. This same rock, which geologists refer to as "an unconformity", is exposed in certain sections of the Grand Canyon. There is an abundance of wildlife including great blue herons, bald eagles, peregrine falcons, mule deer, and desert bighorn sheep. Please note that humans are prohibited from approaching within ½ mile of eagle nests or harassing the birds in any way. Look up in old cottonwoods trees and you are likely to spot the nests and eagles.
Motorized use is allowed in Ruby Canyon. Visitors can expect to see motorized and non-motorized craft in Ruby Canyon. How both groups can enjoy the river together.
Overnight camping is available in any of the 34 designated campsites and requires a permit . No permit is required for day use of the river.
Click here for a pdf map of Ruby-Horsethief stretch and the campsites.
Click here to find out which campsites are available to reserve.
Once you start downriver you are committed to going all the way to Westwater.
Ruby-Horsethief is a remote section of river with spotty to non-existent cell service. There are no other takeouts until Westwater, and rescues are long and cumbersome. Conditions vary depending on seasonal flows, especially for canoeists. Please see the Ruby-Horsethief Boating Information page for more information.
Spring weather can be extremely variable with hot days followed by snow followed by high winds followed by cold rains. Summer days can be very hot and buggy. There is little shade along the river. Rain storms are usually short but somewhat violent. Summer nights are usually comfortable. Fall is the most consistent weather with warm days, cool nights, and infrequent rain. However, several days of long, cold, heavy and steady rain can occur at any time. The key is being prepared for almost anything!
River Permits are required year around.

Reviews of this property
You can be sure of a relaxing stay at Lorenzo's holiday flat in Turin. Although It is a town flat it has a very calming effect. This accommodation has lots of character and is set inside a charming courtyard. Personally, I loved the light blue decor in the bedroom and had one of the best sleeps ever. Lorenzo was very friendly and welcomed us heartily when we arrived - also the croissants for breakfast the next day were a nice touch! If you need any ideas about where to go in Turin for meals etc, he is ready to give some welcome tips. I would highly recommend this holiday accommodation and I'm sure we'll go there again when we next visit Turin!
Lorenzo is a great host. Very friendly and good tips about the area. Tye apartment is very spacious and nice kept
Lorenzo was welcoming and friendly, and we liked the spacious, airy apartment with its huge windows and old shutters. The apartment was clean and comfortable. There's a view of distant mountains over the city from one window, and a general atmosphere of homeliness - the sounds of laughter, music and chat from other apartments, barking dogs and passing cars. A five minute walk takes you to the number 52 bus (buy tickets in the shop, not on the bus), and a very efficient, frequent service into the centre of Torino. We enjoyed our stay very much.
Lorenzo is a very attentive host who has very helpful and even had time for a very good time with Gespräch.wir ihm.In the spacious, bright apartment, we felt at home when we arrived in the evening "home".
Lorenzo ist ein sehr aufmerksamer Gastgeber, der sehr hilfsbereit und auch zeit hat für ein Gespräch.wir hatten sehr gute Zeit mit ihm.In der geräumigen,hellen Wohnung haben wir uns zuhause gefühlt,wenn wir am Abend "nach Hause"kamen.
We were heartely welcomed by Lorenzo. The appartement is nice and quietly located opposite a park and easily reached by car. Ît is a nice, basic, but large appartement and has a huge and good bed and a lot of space. Everything you need is there. We felt like living in Torino instead of being a passenger. Lorenzo is very helpful, when you heave questions, he really thinks with you.. He is easily to be reached, living next to the appartement. We had a great time.
