Tour of Wooden Churches of the Carpathian Mountains - Slovak UNESCO Heritage
Specific samples of sacred architecture in Slovakia are the wooden churches. Their folk builders expressed the perfect harmony of the human soul with nature and the effort to disengage from earthly worries.
Among the oldest are the Gothic wooden churches (for example Hervartov, Tvrdosin). The "articled" churches are other type of wooden churches (for instance Sv. Kriz, Lestiny, Kezmarok, Hronsek).
The "articled" churches are those built under the article of the law issued by Emperor Leopold I at the end of the 17th century.
There is also a third type of wooden churches built in eastern Slovakia, mostly in the 18th century. First they were owned by the Greek Catholic denomination, later some of them were changed into Orthodox churches.
The special features of the East Christian rite are reflected in their interior decoration and furniture where the unique Carpathian icons dominate. They are normally fitted into iconostases ornamented in the Baroque and Rococo styles.
Wooden churches of the Slovak part of Carpathian Mountain Area, which were added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 2008, possess an extraordinary worldwide value.
The churches include: Roman Catholic churches inHervartov and Tvrdosin, Evangelical articular churches in Kezmarok, Lestiny and Hronsek, and churches of Eastern rite in Bodruzal, Ladomirova and Ruska Bystra.
While discovering Wooden churches of the Slovak part of Carpathian Mountain Area we will visit many interesting places which are on the way of this tour-
Open air museum of folk architecture in Vlkolinec, Orava Castle, Museum of Orava village in Zuberec, towns Kezmarok, Bradejov and Kosice.

Four bulky lime trees stand in its yard. Fine wooden belfry from 1726 stands nearby.
The church has a central floor plan in the form of uneven Cross (longer arm is 23 m, the shorter 18 m). Height is 8 meter. 5 entrance gates leads into the church building, there is 30 windows on the perimeter.
The construction is completely of solid oak and red spruce. Inside the church roof recalls the inverted ship shape. There are elements of Scandinavian architecture, distinctive colonnade on the galeries.
The altar of the church has six interchangeable images, originating from 1771. On the altar is arranged the crucifix with inscription and the year 1739.
Above it are the escutcheons aristocratic families, which promote the evangelical church.
In early November 2000, visited the church the English Crown Prince Charles.
The wooden articled Evangelical church in Lestiny from 1688. The lavishly painted interior decoration of the church is from the 17th and 18th centuries.
Visitors are attracted especially by the main altar from the beginning of the 18th century, church pews with coats of arms, Renaissance baptistery of the 17th century, a copy of the burial flag of J. Zmeskal, and an epitaph of M. Meska of 1753.

2. the Orava Castle in Oravsky Podzamok
Overnight in Zuberec
Day 3:
We will visit the Open air museum of folk architecture in Zuberec, Gothic wooden Roman-Catholic church of All Saints in Tvrdosin and articled Evangelical church in Kezmarok.
The pride of Tvrdosin and its oldest preserved building is the Gothic wooden Roman-Catholic church of All Saints situated in the local cemetery.
Its origins date back to the second half of the 15th century and it was rebuilt in Renaissance style in the 17th century.
The Baroque altar from the end of the 17th century with the painting of All Saints dominates the interior of the church. Formerly, there was a low Gothic altar. Only one wing with the paintings of St Peter and St John the Baptist was preserved.
The original central part of the altar, a painting of Bemoaning the Death of Christ from the 15th century was moved in 1919 to a museum in Budapest. The interior of the church was finished in the mid-17th century.
Viewing the church, especially the paintings of the Apostles, the Late Renaissance pulpit with figures of the Evangelists from 1654, and a painting of St George mounted on a horse fighting a dragon (a distemper painting on wood from 1653)
will draw the attention of any visitor. The wonderful dome paintings (a sky with stars, angels and a panelled ceiling) complement the Gothic mysticism of the space.
Highly artistic and expert reconstruction and restoration of the church was awarded a prize by EUROPA NOSTRA in 1993 and the church itself, as the National Cultural Monument, was included in the list of European cultural heritage.
One of the best preserved Slovak wooden sacral buildings is the articled Evangelical church in Kezmarok. The Evangelical church was built in 1717 next to an older sacral stone building from 1593, which today is a sacristy.
This unique wooden building made of yew and red spruce wood was built without using a single metal component and its ground plan is in the form of a Greek cross.
The Baroque interior of the church is also made of wood. Of immense artistic value is also the church organ with wooden pipes.
A unique open-air Museum of the Orava Village is an area of about 20 hectares, and on both sides of the crystal clean Studeny brook, are typical folk buildings moved here from various regions of Orava.
A visitor can see here all kinds of buildings - peasant houses, larders, lumber rooms, farmsteads, shepherd's huts, haylofts, etc.; sacral buildings (a wooden church, cemetery and belfry)
and the craftsman's and linen-maker's houses (a Wallachian mill and sawmill, a potter's furnace and fulling mill, etc.).
Overnight in Kezmarok
Day 4:
We will visit The Roman Catholic wooden church of St Francis of Assisi in Hervartov and town Bardejov which is inscribed in the List of the World Cultural Heritage.
The Roman Catholic wooden church of St Francis of Assisi was built by the end of the 15th century (probably between 1499 and 1500).
It is the oldest and best preserved wooden church in Slovakia. The Gothic pictures and wall paintings from 1655 and 1805 are the most valuable parts of its interior.
Another Slovak town inscribed in the List of the World Cultural Heritage is the historic Bardejov, one of the oldest Slovak towns, rightly awarded the European award,
gold medal of ICOMOS Foundation of UNESCO in 1986 and it was inscribed into the List of the World Cultural Heritage of the same organisation in 2000.
The buildings in the historic centre are included in the Town Monument Reserve. Bardejov is spoken of as "the most Gothic of towns in Slovakia".
Its centre consists of a set of historical buildings arranged in the area limited by an almost continuous belt of town fortifications.
The principal area of the historical core is the rectangular Radnicne square skirted by rows of antique burgher houses with typical gable facades.
The most significant monument of the square is the Roman-Catholic Basilica of St. Egidius that is located in its northern section.
Its construction started at the beginning of the 15th century. It was conceived as a majestic Gothic basilica with three isles.
There is an interesting set of 11 Late Gothic altars from the 15th and the 16th centuries and some of those wood carvings are considered to be supreme works of European art.
Overnight in Bardejov
Day 5:
We will visit two churches of Eastern rite in villages Ladomirova and Bodruzal.
The Greek Catholic wooden church of St Michael the Archangel in Ladomirova was built in 1742 without a single metal nail. Independent belfry with column construction stands by the church.
The area, part of which is a cemetery, has a log fence.
Valuable iconostas and altar are from the mid-18th century. It is a five-row wooden architecture filled with icons, part of which was destroyed in the World War II.
The Greek Catholic wooden church of St Nicolas in Bodruzal was built in 1658. The log building consists of three parts. Its shingle roof is dissected and has three little towers.
The area of the church has a log fence with shingle tops. Remains of wall paintings from the 18th century survive in its interior. Iconostas and several icons are from the end of the 18th century.
The church was completely reconstructed in summer 2004.
Museum of Ukrainian Culture in Svidnik is an ethnic institution whose mission resides in documenting the fundamental phases of cultural, historical, political and social development of Ruthenians - Ukrainians in Slovakia from earliest times up to the present.
Overnight in Snina
Day 6:
We will visit last 4 churches of Eastern rite in Topola, Rusky Potok, Ulicske Krive and Ruska Bystra close to Ukrainian border and we will transfer to second biggest town of Slovakia- Kosice.
The Greek Catholic wooden church of St Nicolas the Bishop in Ruska Bystra was built at the beginning of the 18th century, in the years 1720 to 1730. The log building consists of three parts. It is covered by shingle roof.
The interior in the Baroque and Rococo style is from the beginning of the 18th century.
Kosice is not only the centre of eastern Slovakia but also the core of the Eastern Carpathians where several ethnicities live.
Almost all monuments of Kosice are concentrated in the historical core of the town, size of which makes it the biggest Town Monument Reserve of Slovakia.
The spindle-shaped Main square of Kosice is the heart of the town and rightly considered one of the most beautiful squares in Slovakia. It is closed to traffic and skirted by numerous wonderful historical buildings.
The most valuable monuments are situated in its centre. The dominant of the square and the town is the monumental Gothic Cathedral of St. Elisabeth.
This building, rather isolated from the rest of the square, is the largest church of Slovakia and the easternmost situated Gothic cathedral of western type in Europe.
Overnight in Kosice
Day 7:
Farewell and departure from Slovakia from Kosice on your own (plane, train, bus) or we arrange for you private transfer to airports in Budapest, Bratislava, Vienna or Krakow.

Bach references appear very frequently. It seems obvious that publishing the work in a printed form would quickly become out of date. Considering the benefit of having various search facilities, it has to be published on the internet, so that it could be updated frequently. This internet service started on 5 May 1997. The search engines are created by Malcolm Vincent.
In September 2000, I read a paper at International Bach Symposium Utrecht 2000 (Universiteit Utrecht, Netherlands) entitled "Setting up Research Resources for the future: On-line Bach Bibliography Project and International Collaboration", in which I outlined the details of my future plan of its expansion. An abridged version is published in Ariadne, xxvi (Dec.2000). A revised version of the paper was presented at the IAML conference in July 2003. [PDF + PPT].
Bach Bibliography is currently accessible from five different sites, as shown below:

An unflinching gaze into the heart of pure evil and a perverse genre entertainment par excellence.
An unflinching gaze into the heart of pure evil and a perverse genre entertainment par excellence, Kim Jee-woon's "I Saw the Devil" takes the serial-killer thriller as far into the realm of pulse-pounding mayhem as it has ever gone. When a pregnant young woman is brutally murdered by a hammer-wielding maniac, her special-agent b.f., Joo-yeon (Lee Byung-hun), goes on a rampage, stalking the killer as ruthlessly as any psycho. (" … And He Is Me" could be the pic's subtitle.) Kim has battled the censors in South Korea and lost, but Magnet Releasing will issue the director's cut Stateside.
A bona fide cult film, "I Saw the Devil" might well create a minor sensation among genre fans who dare each other to see it. Repugnant content, grislier than the ugliest torture porn, ought to have made the film unwatchable, but it doesn't, simply because Kim's pic is so beautifully filmed, carefully structured and viscerally engaging. Near the start of the film, a kid finds a severed ear in a field beside a bridge in Seoul, leading detectives to discover a head floating in the water. The deceased was not only Joo-yeon's g.f., but the daughter of a retired police chief, which gives the case added importance among the city's cops. Mournful Joo-yeon announces he's taking two weeks off from his duties at the National Intelligence Service, although it soon becomes clear he's not going on vacation. Acquiring a short list of suspects, Joo-yeon beats the first two senseless, then finds his man in No. 3. The killer, Kyung-chul (Choi Min-sik), who works part-time as a school bus driver (yuck), goes toe-to-toe with Joo-yeon in a botanical-garden setpiece that aims to pump up the viewer's bloodlust. Turns out the avenging Joo-yeon is a serious badass with martial-arts moves aplenty, although he curiously leaves Kyung-chul alive, throwing him into an open grave along with, outrageously, a wad of cash. Joo-yeon wants his nemesis to feel as much pain as possible before dying, and makes him swallow a GPS-tracking pill with a tiny microphone attached in order to follow his every move. "I Saw the Devil" is somewhat akin to Michael Winterbottom's "The Killer Inside Me" in its level of brutality and proximity to the murderer's psychology. Kim follows Kyung-chul's actions so closely — as he washes his bloody face in a creek after a wicked slaughter, for instance — that we catch ourselves feeling some shade of identification with, if not sympathy for, the devil. More deliberately, Kim seems to borrow elements of the most disturbingly provocative American horror from the early '70s — namely Wes Craven's "The Last House on the Left" and Tobe Hooper's "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre." Craven's method of making the audience gag on its taste for revenge is duplicated here, as Joo-yeon gradually turns from justly motivated hero into full-fledged sadist. Joo-yeon cuts the killer's tendon and lets him loose again, the better to play out his twisted cat-and-mouse games. "I Saw the Devil" sports a lot of philosophical talk — too much, perhaps — about the problematic irony of becoming a monster in order to catch one. Kim's stronger tack is purely visual, turning the movie's urban landscape into a projection of the characters' sick fantasies, wherein they drive against incoming traffic and beat each other to a pulp but still survive, as if they're robotic terminators. As murderer and avenger issue ultraviolent taunts with a strange hint of empathy for one another, the movie achieves a kind of ludicrous poignancy unmatched in the two decades since John Woo's "The Killer." The actors — Choi from "Oldboy" and Lee from Kim's "The Good the Bad the Weird" — make their characters differently aggressive, but equally watchable. Cinematographer Lee Mogae composes the film largely in darkness, as befits the pitch-black material, but colors pop out vividly nonetheless. Even with its occasional flashes of dark humor, Kim's pic is obviously not for all tastes. But art-film lovers with strong stomachs will want to see what the fuss is about, while fans of hardcore Asian action and horror will simply eat it up.I Saw the Devil

CB-6000 Male Chastity Cage Kit
Love it
Reviewed: 04 July 2016 by Tgirlashley12, a Bisexual Single Male
This is my first chastity device and I can honestly say I love it!
After getting the spacers right, which is just a bit of trial and error, it is very comfortable to wear - even if you get an erection.
I can see me staying in it for long periods of time as it's very lightweight, you can't see it through clothes, and it doesn't make any noise as you walk or move. It's very discreet, which is perfect for me.
Don't tell anyone, but I'm wearing it right now! I highly recommend this product to first-timers looking to spice up their sex lives. 10/10 for me.
- Pros
- It's very discreet.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- The kinkiest toy I've ever purchased!

Simply the best chastity device
Reviewed: 20 July 2015 by Life with her, a Straight Engaged Male
This is my second chastity device and it has lasted me for over 4 years now.
A super lightweight chastity device. It's really strong for something made of plastic.
The design of this is just really good. After getting the rings and spacers sizing right, I sometimes forget that I am wearing it.
I've had no issues with this, like going to the gym or wearing it 2 months straight, and it doesn't make a noticeable bulge like other chastity devices.
- Pros
- 100% comfortable, lightweight, strong and secure.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- For something lightweight and can be worn 24/7, this is simply the best chastity device.

Can't recommend enough
Reviewed: 17 June 2015 by Pleasure to measure , a Straight Going Steady Female
I find dominating my partner a massive turn on, as does he, and this product is a perfect starting point to exploring bondage as a whole.
Even being locking in this device for just a day drove him wild, and really spiced up our sex life.
The product is of the highest quality and he felt comfortable (as he could!), whilst locked up for a longer period of time. Would recommend to anyone.
- Pros
- Comfortable for the partner and a massive turn on for both of us.
- Cons
- Nothing.
- Bottom line
- Massively improved our sex life and opened up the world of bondage.

Want more attention from your OH? Buy this
Reviewed: 25 April 2015 by strapon_banana, a Straight Married Female
As a couple who enjoy the delights of femdom play it was only natural that eventually we would play with chastity.
After a lot of research we settled on this one and I'm pleased we did.
Getting it on and long term wear:
To start with, the sizing rings are really a trial and error method of fitting. My husband finds the best way to put it on is to fit the ring, then lube up the inside of the cage and before you slide the penis in, pull as much foreskin forward as you can and then do it and then get that padlock on him! We found a cotton bud can be handy to gently push any bunched up skin between the cage and ring into the cage. If I'm going to make him wear it for a while I know he finds it helps to moisturise around the fitting ring. This process is a lot easier if he is fully shaven or at least trimmed down below.
As for the effect on my husband, I find now that he's more attentive to my needs, more eager to please and yes - extra horny all the time. I find it a great turn on when we go out knowing he is locked up down there. He will wear it at weekends visiting parents or going out for meals, some times I like to just rub across it or nudge it whilst he drives just so he knows I'm in control.
If I'm feeling really mean I'll peg his arse making him keep it on I can see how turned on he gets as pre-cum literally streams out of the cage.
Great product - the only downside for me was steep price tag.
- Pros
- Gaining control over my OH.
- Cons
- Price.
- Bottom line
- Great for any femdom play.

Caged and satisfied
Reviewed: 15 January 2015 by Scubaman, a Straight Married Male
Myself and the wife have been talking about chastity and we decided to take the plunge. After looking at various cages and devices, we settled on the CB 6000. The item came on time and well packaged.
The same night we managed to fit it, starting off like a lot of people have advised on here, with the largest ring and spacers. The cage came off in the night. :-(
The next morning after, the wife went to work and before I did. I refitted the cage using the next ring size down. It was a perfect fit. Well, that was it. I was aloud to keep the key for two days, just to make sure I had no problems, but now the wife has both keys and I'm only aloud to remove it when she sees fit.
So that's me well and truly cuckold.
Great item if you wish to go down the road of chastity or cuckolding.
- Pros
- The fit, comfort, look and the power it gives the wife.
- Cons
- None really.
- Bottom line
- Unlike the wife, you might get more than you wished for lol.

Standing Up for Working Rhode Island Families, Langevin and Cicilline Highlight Importance of Fair Minimum Wage Act
PAWTUCKET – During a press conference at the Rochambeau Library in Providence this morning, U.S. Congressmen James Langevin and David N. Cicilline urged a renewed focus on legislation important to working Rhode Island families – most notably the Fair Minimum Wage Act that both lawmakers have co-sponsored in the U.S. House of Representatives.
"It is time for us to acknowledge that the decline of the American middle class and the rise of income inequality are related, in part, to a largely stagnant federal minimum wage," said Langevin. "In addition to being the right thing to do for the hardworking families who now live in poverty, raising the minimum wage would boost our economy for everyone since low-income earners will most quickly spend that money at businesses in their communities."
"Passing the Fair Minimum Wage Act in the House would be a significant step towards ensuring that working Rhode Islanders know they will always be able to provide for themselves and their families," said Cicilline, who was recently appointed to serve on the House Democratic Whip Task Force on Poverty and Opportunity. "I am proud to stand with Congressman Langevin on this important initiative."
Following this morning's press conference, Langevin and Cicilline blogged on the Huffington Post and reiterated their support for the Fair Minimum Wage Act and like-minded proposals that are important to working families. Over the past four years, the federal minimum wage has remained stagnant and lost value, failing to keep up with the cost of living and leaving working families to rely on government aid to make ends meet.
Presently, a full-time minimum wage worker makes only $14,500 – an income level that leaves many struggling to make ends meet below the poverty line. Companies like Costco and Stride Rite have supported a minimum wage increase in the past, along with several leading economists, including Harvard Professor Lawrence Katz and former Chair of the President Clinton's Council of Economic Advisers Laura Tyson.
"It's exactly the right thing to do, it's absolutely a necessity for all of those working tough, hard but necessary jobs in a currently downward economy, and it's an important step in allowing those same hardworking citizens to inch a little closer toward a sustainable middle-class existence," said Scott Duhamel, Secretary Treasurer of the Rhode Island Building and Construction Trades Council.
The Fair Minimum Wage Act would increase the federal minimum wage to $10.10 per hour over three years and provide a higher minimum wage for tipped workers. Enacting the Fair Minimum Wage Act would increase pay for as many as 30 million Americans and offer tipped workers their first pay hike since 1991.
"Raising the minimum wage is a win-win for Rhode Island; it puts more money in the pockets of low-wage workers and in the cash registers of local businesses," added Kate Brewster, Executive Director of the Economic Progress Institute.
Indexing the minimum wage to inflation is critical to taking partisan politics out of this debate. With passage of this bill, the purchasing power of minimum wage earners would no longer be held hostage by partisanship in Congress or powerful special interests.

text: Original Plans For The Crazy Advanced Dymaxion Car Found In A HouseMichael Ballaban5/25/13 2:00pmFiled to: DymaxionBuckminster FullerAuctions425EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkWe're huge fans of the crazy Dymaxion Car here at Jalopnik. It was so far ahead of its time before such a thing was even a phrase, and sadly only one survives. Now, the blueprints for this amazing vehicle have been found in a house in Dudley, Massachusetts.AdvertisementIt was 20 feet long, could seat 11 passengers, got 30 miles per gallon, had only three wheels, and could top 90 miles per hour. Not bad, considering it was built in 1933. The Dymaxion (its name itself was a mashup of Dynamic Maximum Tension) was conceived by architect Buckminster Fuller, who created the geodesic dome and a number of other architectural innovations.The blueprints themselves are now going up for auction and are expected to fetch between $20,000 and $30,000, according to the SFGate. Of the three examples built, one was destroyed in an accident, one was presumed scrapped in the 1950s, and one survives, though a replica was built a few years ago. The remaining original Dymaxion sits in a museum and is essentially priceless, but for the price of a new Subaru you can get all the original plans to build your own.

Hi all,
Help me, please, how can I open my .html file in the BlackBerry Simulator browser
Hi Mark,
Please, explain more detailed how can I do it.
10-02-2008 02:04 PM - edited 10-02-2008 02:26 PM
Is there any way to view .html pages on the BB without connecting to the web?
Right now I would just like to render .html files on different models (via the simulator) and do not require any functionality (other than the intial rendering).
I am under the impression that I cannot use the BB Browser in the Simulator since I already have a registered BlackBerry that uses the Desktop Manager.
Where are the files stored that you are trying to render? If they are on the simulator micro SD card of the BlackBerry Simulator you can open then in the BlackBerry Browser using a url that starts with file:///.
How To - Use a computer file system as a microSD card
I'm not sure what you are asking here:

The SD card info looks perfect to me, thanks for such a fast reply!
I was told that "current blackberry users cannot use the browser part of the simulator because their email account is already linked to a Blackberry account."
Thanks again
I have sucessfully mapped my computer to act as the SD card. If I go to "media" on the BB Simulator I can see pictures and music that I've put on the "card" just fine.
When I try to view my .html file in the BB Browser it doesn't work.
My SD Card is mapped to:
C:\Documents and Settings\...\Desktop\HTML\
My file is located in the folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\...\Desktop\HTML\BlackBerry
I have tried putting my file, TT.html, in the BlackBerry folder, and also in the documents folder contained within the BlackBerry folder and in other places. I cannot seem to get file:///TT.html to work. I tried also deleting the file extension. Every time I get the error "A problem occured while trying to render the page"
I'm left wondering:
What folder should I put TT.html in to be able to read it using the BB Browser (and should I just be able to do file:///TT.html or file:///documents/TT.html).
Thanks so much!

I'm not sure what you mean here. Having an email account setup on a BlackBerry should not impact the browser.
The location of the file on the micro SD card should not matter. Are you opening the HTML file from within the BlackBerry Browser itself or from the Media application (exploring the media card)? You should use the BlackBerry Browser, however the Media application can be used to verify the location of the HTML file by exploring the micro SD card.
Hello BBAlison,
on the BlackBerry the path of the SD Card is mapped to the name SDCard. If you start the emulator with the commands
/fs-sdcard=true /fs-sdcard-root="C:\MyProjects\BlackBerrySDCard"
a standard directory structure of a media card is automatically created. And if you save your HTML file in the folder documents you have to enter
as url in the browser.

Photo Shoot
Historical Venue
Peach Red
This, loves, is exactly the way we should all be spending our Valentine's Day: an amazing day of pampering, baking and cuddling. Because this gorgeous photo shoot from the talented team of Cori Cook Floral Design, Talia Events and Jill Carter (to name a few) is, well… awesome. And it's as pretty as it is luxurious (seriously). See it all captured by Michele Hart right here.
For their first Valentine's Day as a married couple our model, Kelly, wanted to do something extra special for her husband, Mike. She reached out to her wedding photographer, Michele with Michele Hart Photography and asked her to come up with an intimate photo session and surprise date for the two of them. Michele turned to Rachel from Talia Events who assembled an amazing group of vendors to bring their vision to life.
It was important to us that the style of each scene and the day as a whole be romantic without being the default Valentine's Day box of chocolates (don't get us wrong, we have nothing against chocolate) and dozen red roses. Instead, it was to be the manifestation of an ideal day of preparation; a glimpse into what it might look like to have an abundance of luxury, time and beauty to get ready for a sweet date at home.
The entire shoot was set in the background of the lovely, historic home in downtown Boulder of Paige from Blackburn Design Interiors. A talented Interior Designer, Paige was also a gracious and welcoming hostess.
We began in the intimate setting of their bedroom. Our woman awoke to a bed strewn with flowers and a calligraphy love note handwritten by Christi of Christi Johnson Calligraphy. After a trip to the local market to purchase an armful of blooms, our character created floral beauties to scatter throughout the house and a centerpiece to top the date night table. Cori and Liz of Cori Cook Floral Design incorporated lots of romance, texture and richness with touches peach and coral in their creations as a new spin on the traditional Valentine's Day red.
With blooms in place, she moved from flowers to baking. Topped with an artistic, edible sugar and gelatin peach and embraced in a net of spun sugar, Kim and Jake's Cake created a lovely and delicious cake for two.
Washing away the preparations of the day, she melted into a dreamy bathtub surrounded by blooms and topped with a cascade of peach, pink and red garden roses spilling over the side. From the look and feel to the smell, it was absolute bliss!
Preparations continued with date night appropriate hair and makeup by Keegan from Steele the Spotlight and wardrobe styling by Jill Carter. Keegan ensured our model looked flawless throughout her day while Jill dressed our character in clothing that spanned from romantic, but comfy jammies upon waking, a chic, put together outfit for baking to a "wow" gown for the evening's events.
As evening came and her husband arrived, she made a grand entrance down the home's staircase and the date commenced. Our couple enjoyed a slice of cake and glass of champagne before moving to the living room for a slow dance and sweet embraces.
At the close of the shoot our model, Kelly, captured her day saying she'd felt "pampered like a princess"… like every woman should on Valentine's Day." It truly was a dream day—filled with the right amount of pretty, a dash of style and plenty of romance!

Even after three days of practice, the mood in Arlington is still a little strange. Sure, the Washington Capitals who didn't travel to Sochi have reassembled and were on the ice working through daily drills. But their first game is still six days away, five Olympians have yet to return to Washington and there are ice-resurfacers to drive and nationalistic trash talking to be done in the dressing room before the gold medal is decided.
Adam Oates was an assistant coach in Tampa Bay back in 2010, the last time the NHL hit pause for three weeks so players could represent their countries. It was odd then when they began to ramp back up, so he knew it would likely be the same this time around.
"Guys are trying to get back into it but [are] not really into it, not really motivated to yet — but you know you're supposed to," Oates said. "It's hard when there's nothing in sight. There's no real goal right now, so we're just trying to leave the guys alone and just get some sweats."
Most players that didn't go to Sochi went on vacation to one tropical location or another so they could rest while distancing themselves from the game. Returning to Washington and practice would seem to have the excitement of going back to school following a long break.
"Everyone's excited to get to the rink, excited to play again. I wish we could have that couple week break every year. It would be a nice little recharge in the middle of the season," Braden Holtby said. "I think you can tell everyone is excited to get going in practice. Everyone's out there 15-20 minutes early, which is unheard of for our team. It's good to see."
But with several days still before everyone on the roster returns, Oates is conscious of balancing the need to get players back into game shape while refocusing them for the push to the playoffs without allowing practice to become stale.
So for these first few days, skates have been short and focused on conditioning. Friday marked the first day that any real contact was involved as players did some one-on-one battle drills. In order to maintain the structure of a true practice and bring in a few players that weren't off for 10 days, the Capitals called up Michael Latta, Casey Wellman, Ryan Stoa and Dane Byers from Hershey for two practices to push the pace before sending them back to the Bears on Friday afternoon.
Oates didn't even do video sessions in the first few days, so as not to overwhelm the players. Deciding what specifically to focus on, both for the group and individuals, is also tricky given that the Capitals haven't played a game since Feb. 8.
"We'll start doing individual stuff, talking about things the next couple of days," Oates said. "Just trying to get them back into a groove, then when everybody's back, some real practices to get ready."
The Capitals' Olympians likely won't be back in practice until Tuesday at the earliest, though.
Alex Ovechkin remains in Sochi with his father, who underwent heart surgery earlier in the week. The Capitals said they hope to have an update on when the star winger may return over the weekend.
Martin Erat, whose Czech Republic squad was also eliminated in the quarterfinals, is planning to take a few days in Nashville where his wife, Vera, recently gave birth to their second child before heading back to Washington, according to General Manager George McPhee. And Nicklas Backstrom, Marcus Johansson and John Carlson all still have games to play in the Olympics.

Like a bear,
I want the sensation,
Of spending winter,
In hibernation.
When it's cold,
And windy outside,
My warm bed is
The best place to hide.
And I think
A bear or two,
Could even make
Things less blue.
How warm a bear
Could probably be,
While cuddling,
And fast asleep.
Oh so nice and cozy,
In a world of dreams.
Just don't wake my friend,
Or we'll all have to scream!

If anyone is familiar with Ford Escort ZX2s and a very, very, VERY rough idle, I'd really apprecaite your advice.
The car's always had a rough idle - either when at a stoplight and the car's in drive but stopped or sitting still. When I shift into neutral the idle gets smoother but there's still a slight vibration throughout the whole car.
It's now gotten so bad that even shifting to neutral doesn't help. Literally the steering column vibrates about an inch up and down and the entire seat shakes.
I thought it was the motor mounts so I ahd those replaced about 6 months ago but it didn't do much. The only thing that I can think of is before my alternator was replaced, the check engine light was on and the code was for a bad O2 sensor.
Could a bad O2 sensor make the car idle this roughly? Since they unhooked the battery, the light is off now and I can't get the code to see which sensor it is. Would it be helpful to replace the sensors to correct an extremely rough idle?
Oh, I notice that when the AC is off, the vibration is't as bad either.
Thanks for your help.
Could O2 sensor cause a very, very severe rough idle? on 2003 Ford Escort
Asked by for the 2003 Ford Escort
I had this problem with my 93 Escort. The exhaust manifold may have a vacuum leak. I'm guessing this may have caused the O2 sensor to overload.
Check for vacuum leaks and replace the O2 sensor if necessary.

it could make it ride a little rough but I have a ford zx2 and it has always ride rough but I notice that when it gets worse behind the engine block theres a pvc hose that slips off so check out all your pvc hoses.
This is typical of vacuum leaks

Work to develop nanoparticles for imaging |
(Nanowerk News) Since X-rays were discovered more than a century agotriggering a revolution in medical imagingclinicians have sought more powerful ways to "see" into the human body. | |
Now, with a $1.1 million grant from the John R. Oishei Foundation, researchers at University of Buffalo's Institute for Lasers, Photonics and Biophotonics are turning their expertise in nanomedicine to the development of new, nanoparticle-based multiprobe systems, launching a new generation of medical imaging. | |
In particular, the grant will fund research in which two or more medical-imaging techniques are combined to provide complementary information. | |
Part of a new field called nanobiotechnology, the UB scientists are designing these nanoparticle systems to contain multiple-contrast agents for different medical-imaging techniques. | |
The goal is to diagnose cancer and other diseases in their earliest stages by providing far more comprehensive data to clinicians. | |
"Ultimately, clinicians want the most complete data possible that they can gather from medical images, ranging from tissue structure to metabolic processes to molecular markers," said Paras Prasad, executive director of the Institute for Lasers, Photonics and Biophotonics and SUNY Distinguished Professor in the Department of Chemistry, College of Arts and Sciences. | |
"We are aiming to provide them with such data by developing nanoparticle platforms capable of carrying multiple-contrast agents for complementary medical-imaging techniques in the same nano-sized package," he said. | |
Once injected with these multimodal nanoparticles, the patient can undergo several imaging tests, the results of which will be combined to provide more comprehensive and complementary information, such as correlations between molecular and morphological changes at the cellular level. | |
The result is a far more sensitive and comprehensive method of detecting the presence or progression of a disease. | |
"At the same time, these imaging agents will provide pharmaceutical researchers and clinicians with powerful tools for more precise monitoring and tracking of drug action in real time," said Prasad. | |
The multimodal platforms under way in Prasad's group are based on versatile nanoparticles that the UB researchers have developed with previous Oishei Foundation funding and shown to be effective in a broad range of therapeutic applications. | |
"The fields of nanomedicine in which Dr. Prasad and his teams are working are developing extremely rapidly, and they are at the forefront," said Thomas E. Baker, president of the Oishei Foundation. "The work of these grants has tremendous potential for significantly improving both the diagnostic capabilities of physicians and the clinical outcomes of patients." | |
The research also is being conducted with partial funding from UB's New York State Center of Excellence in Bioinformatics and Life Sciences, a major supporter of the nanomedicine program at the Institute for Lasers, Photonics and Biophotoncs. Prasad is affiliated with the Bioengineering/Tissue Engineering Team at the Center of Excellence. | |
"This new imaging work represents an exciting and timely extension of our existing nanomedicine portfolio that will be particularly important for the Center of Excellence initiatives in neurodegenerative disease and cancer," said Bruce A. Holm, senior vice provost and executive director of the Center of Excellence. "This research not only crosses a variety of UB 2020 strategic strength areas, but holds enormous promise for commercialization potential as well." | |
The UB institute's new emphasis on application of nanobiotechnology to medical imaging also distinguishes it from other nanotechnology research centers throughout the United States, while enriching its current collaborations with The Johns Hopkins University, Roswell Park Cancer Institute and others. | |
The nanoprobes are being developed for use with: | |
The Oishei grant, "Developing New Advances in Medical Imaging through Nanotechnology," will be used in part to recruit and support a research professor to provide expertise in ultrasound imaging, as well as postdoctoral fellows and graduate students who will focus on the development of multimodal nanoprobes for medical imaging. | |
In addition to Prasad, other key personnel involved in the research are E.J. Bergey, Dinish Sukumaran, Indrajit Roy, Tymish Y. Ohulchanskyy, Haridas E. Pudivar and Aliksandr Kachynski, all affiliated with the Institute for Lasers, Photonics and Biophotonics; Richard V. Mazurchuk, Ravindra K. Pandey and Hani.A. Nabi from Roswell Park Cancer Institute; and Benjamin Tsui of Johns Hopkins. |

Architect Creates 'Flying Mud Boat' House In Japan
By Sarah Lee, 06 Dec 2012
Japanese architect Terunobu Fujimori has built a 'flying mud boat' house as part of his 'traveling tea house' installation.
The flying mud boat is suspended on tension cables that go over four natural wooden posts on each side and is only accessible by ladder.
It consists of two halves, where the top is made of a shingle roof—while the bottom is a bowl of mud plaster painted in neutral earthen yellow.
The suspended acorn-shaped house can be installed in any environment and climate, and could be useful in places where being elevated off the ground would be advantageous.

It's a Saturday night on the campus of Brandeis University, and the folk and protest movements are in full swing. On stage, the Prince of Protest is holding court through two sets for an appreciative folk festival audience that has paid $3.98 apiece to hear the world's most original singer and songwriter. This long-lost relic documents the then-21-year-old Dylan at the height of his solo acoustic powers. It's two weeks before the release of his breakthrough Freewheelin' album. He delivers riveting renditions of scorching social commentary ("Masters of War," "The Ballad of Hollis Brown"), plays the fool ("Talking Bear Mountain Picnic Massacre Blues"), and bares his sensitive side ("Bob Dylan's Dream"). It's a commanding performance, even on a seven-track recording that fades into the opening track ("Honey Just Allow Me One More Chance"), cuts off the announcer between sets, and finds Dylan, apparently inebriated during the second set, slurring his speech. By the end of the year, Dylan already had grown tired of his role as a leader of the protest movement, staging his own character assassination in front of the National Emergency Civil Liberties Committee and preparing to show the public Another Side of Bob Dylan. But, for now, he stood in the spotlight, unperturbed and unapologetic.

Artichokes are a Sephardic favorite. But preparing them can be a thankless task. Fortunately, though, frozen artichoke bottoms are easy to find, absolutely delicious and lend themselves to numerous dishes, like stuffings, soups and salads.
- ¼ cup olive oil -
- 1 medium onion, chopped finely -
- ½ tsp turmeric -
- 2 good pinches saffron -
- 2 lb very thin carrots (about 16), peeled (do not use baby carrots) -
- 1½ lb frozen artichoke bottoms -
- ½ cup pitted green olives -
- Salt and pepper to taste -
- 2 cups water -
- ¼ cup flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped -
- Juice and zest of 2 lemons, or less to taste -
1. Heat the olive oil in a heavy, wide-bottom pot and add the onion. Sauté until translucent.
2. Add the turmeric, saffron, carrots, artichokes, olives, salt, pepper and water, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, covered, until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
3. Uncover the pot, add the parsley, lemon juice and zest, and cook for a few more minutes, until the sauce is thick. Serve at room temperature. This dish is also great as a side with chicken or meat.

It was hard to keep up with the quick-changing schedule for the Barton Community College baseball team as the weekend approached. Originally Barton was headed to Oklahoma for a twinbill Saturday and Sunday with Rose State College. But weather changed that. More than once.
SALINA - It wasn't the most condusive weather for a pair of softball games. But the Barton Community College softball team wasn't about to allow the weather to keep it from continuing its best start in several years. The Cougars rolled to a pair of easy wins at Brown Mackie College Friday afternoon.
It was a pretty good night at the Barton Gym for the Barton Cougar women's basketball team.
It almost happened again. The Barton Community College men's basketball team entered the NJCAA Top 25 for the second time this year Tuesday. The last time the Cougars did that they followed it up with a pair of losses.
The home opener was put on hold. Due to the weather expected in Great Bend over the weekend, the Barton Community College baseball team switched venues for its 4-game series.
After rolling to a 4-0 start at home to start the 2015 season, the Barton Community College softball team hit the road for the first time Saturday. And it wasn't a short trip either. The Cougars traveled to far southeast corner of the state to battle Allen County in Iola.
Winning at the Sports Arena was a task Craig Fletchall found very difficult for much of his career. Recently, however, it has become much easier for the Barton Community College men's basketball coach.
The task was a big one indeed. Traveling to face the top ranked team in the nation on its home court. It was a task that proved too tall for the Barton Community College women to accomplish.
As February home openers go Wednesday afternoon couldn't have gone much better for the Barton Community College softball team.
Three more Barton Community College men earned their spot at the NJCAA National Indoor Track Meet with marks this past weekend at the University of Nebraska in the Husker Invitational.
The Brent Biggs era is underway.
With the Region VI meet just a couple weeks away, Coach Dave Schenek is working his personnel. The Barton Community College track coach took a limited number of women to the Husker Invitational.
For 20 minutes Monday night the Barton Community College women's basketball team looked on the way to an upset of Butler.
Don't look now but the Barton Community College men's basketball team is back in the Jayhawk West race.
One loss, more than others, was more stinging to the Barton Community College basketball team in conference play. Four of the five losses came to the top three teams in the Jayhawk West – teams that have only lost to each other.

Compaq Presario won't boot
I have a Compaq Presario C500. When I turn it on, the power button light is flashing continuously, but no beep codes, no BIOS loading up, no screen lighting up, nothing. Just the flashing light and a black screen. I plugged it in and let the battery try to charge for over 5 hours and still nothing. Think the motherboard is shot? Any suggestions as to what to try to get something to happen? Thanks much for any replies.
November 16th, 2010, 02:16 AM #2
Very common problem with this model actually, usually a bad motherboard which is costly to replace.
Something get spilled onto it?
Other than taking it apart and checking everything there won't be much of a solution that you would be able to do most likely.DynaIndex.com - Dynamic search index of websites, links, feeds, title, description, keywords and thumbnail snapshot.

Thanks, quickoldcar
Thanks much for the reply. One other thing, when I turn it on the fan runs briefly, 4-5 seconds then shuts off. Assuming the mobo is in control of the fan, another reason to think the mobo is gone. Thanks again,

Le'Veon Bell's 2012 season really began last January, when fellow running back Edwin Baker announced he was skipping his senior year to enter the NFL draft.
Suddenly, Bell's carry-splitting arrangement in Michigan State's backfield was a thing of the past. There was no doubt as to who the Spartans would build their running game around — but even after months of preparation, the increased workload was a bit of a shock.
"It surprised me, as many carries as I got," Bell said. "I'll do whatever it takes for us to win games."
Michigan State hasn't won as many as in seasons past, but Bell has certainly done his part. The 6-foot-2 junior enters Saturday's Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl against Texas Christian with 1,648 yards on 350 carries — and his 266-yard effort in the regular-season finale against Minnesota is the biggest reason the Spartans are in the postseason at all.
Bell was already a big-play threat before the season. He averaged over five yards a carry in his first two years, running for 948 on 182 attempts as a sophomore. He and Baker seemed interchangeable at times, and sharing responsibility may have helped keep Bell fresh.
There has been little time for a breather in 2012. In the season opener — a win over Boise State — Bell ran for 210 yards on 44 carries. He also caught six passes.
Before that game, Bell's career high was 20 attempts.
Bell put on some weight before the season and is now listed at 237 pounds, although he said he was actually around 242 at one point and has slimmed down while preparing for the bowl.
Michigan State (6-6) fell out of the Big Ten title race amid a slew of close calls in conference play. The Spartans' first seven league games were decided by no more than four points, and they won only two of them. Bell ran for 188 yards in a loss to Nebraska and 140 in a defeat against Iowa despite defenses geared to slow him down.
"It seems like every team we play had a specific game plan to stop Le'Veon," quarterback Andrew Maxwell said.
That didn't matter against Minnesota. With Michigan State needing a win to become bowl eligible, Bell ran for 266 yards on 35 carries on a cold afternoon in a 26-10 victory. He became the seventh rusher in school history to pass the 3,000-yard mark for his career.
Bell is third in the nation in rushing at 137 yards per game. He's second in total carries, 25 behind Stefphon Jefferson of Nevada, who already played his bowl.
Throw in Bell's abilities as a pass catcher and size that makes him a fine blocker, and his football future appears bright. It's certainly possible he could follow Baker's path and declare for the NFL after his junior season.
"Right now Le'Veon is the third-leading rusher in the country. He'll have a name for himself, he'll be projected. So there's a lot of advantages to doing something like that, but there's got to be value in that," coach Mark Dantonio said. "I want to be fair to him and not be selfish with our program. But there's pluses and minuses on both sides, and at some point in time you have to make decisions."
First, Bell and the Spartans will try to finish on a high note against TCU. And here's a scary thought for the Horned Frogs: Bell says the rest after the Minnesota game really helped his legs.
No surprise there. He's ready to handle the ball early and often.
"I just want to show everybody I'm a capable back," Bell said. "I just want to show the nation what I can do."

For our little party, I tried out a fun idea I spotted while blog hopping last week...I just don't remember where I spotted it~ so if you recognize it, claim it so I can give you credit!
Watermelon 'Cookies'
most fun way to eat watermelon yet!
Cut out the flesh with cookie cutters!
(You may want to guide young hands as to the placement of the cut outs to maximize your melon~ we put the cut offbits in a bowl to snack on throughout the day)
It is amazing how well this works~ the pieces held up well in the fridge for 6 hours before serving and many hours outdoors after that. And the kids, of course, loved them!
♥ Your posts can be old or new, we welcome your best! (no more than 3 per week, please)
♥ Consider adding the playdate button (above) to your post or sidebar, or even a text link back to this blog (http://beneaththerowantree.com) ~ you don't have to, but it sure would be sweet ♥!
♥ ANY kid/ baby/ family related posts and ideas welcome... but please no shop links, promos or giveaways.
♥ I will feature my favourites from the playdate in next week's Playdate post (choosing from those who have added our button or link to their shared post).
♥ Hit the Facebook or Twitter buttons below and share with your friends!

Revision as of 12:45, 5 March 2010
At the recent Events FAD 2010[1], a group of Fedora contributors came together to plan the future process for premier event planning in Fedora. During this event planning conference, we looked back on the success we had with our events in 2009 by providing more and easier ways for the community to get involved in their planning and execution. Well in advance of each event, any contributors are invited to submit short, informative location bids for holding the next FUDCon in their region. The information needed for a bid is easy to gather, and is defined on the wiki page[2].
To make the premier Fedora event planning process as open and transparent as possible, we have a bid process for FUDCon, described on the wiki at:
Premier Fedora events include the Fedora Users and Developers Conference (FUDCon), and are fully described on the Fedora wiki as well:
We are opening this bid process now for the North American FUDCon that is to occur between December 2010 and February 2011. Any interested parties are invited to submit their bids. Once a bid is ready, please send an email to the fudcon-planning list:
