Reviews for this host's other properties
Dear Sirs,
I am still waiting for a message from our hostess regarding the key conservation and relating to your satisfaction with the state of the apartment after the end of our stay.
Following I will tell you my opinion.
Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
ich warte noch auf eine Mitteilung unserer Gastgeberin bezüglich des Schlüsselerhalts und bezüglich Ihrer Zufriedenheit bezüglich des Zustands der Ferienwohnung nach Abschluss unseres Aufenthaltes.
Im Anschluss werde ich Ihnen meine Beurteilung mitteilen.
Well it located. But we got only one set of sheets and small towels for 13 days. The coffee maker did not work with the capsules we buy. We write about all this but nobody answered us. And we did not see anyone on the property at any time
Bien situado. Pero nos dieron sólo un juego de sábanas y unas toallas pequeñas para 13 días. La cafetera no funcionaba con las cápsulas que compramos. Escribimos sobre todo ello pero nadie nos respondió. Y no vimos a nadie de la propiedad en ningún momento
Everything worked perfect.
It was easy to pick up the keys, and we were very satisfied with the appartement.
It was well ecuiped with all what we needed.
It was very closed to everything, the baker, shops with food and cafe's.
We can highly recommend this appartement.
The apartment is perfectly located. Full kitchen, bathroom with large shower, washing machine and dishwasher. At 100 meters from the Seine and Notre Dame 300. At 50 meters from the metro (Saint Michel). It is next to an area of restaurants in all price ranges. As default, he needs a coat of paint, as the humidity of the area causes the paint to peel off in some areas.
It is located above an Irish pub, but the insulation of windows reduced to almost zero ambient noise. We have been 11 days and he has not even bothered us the weekend. And it is a very busy area.
Key collection on arrival is a bit complicated, because it forces you to make a stop, but the instructions received by mail are sufficiently explanatory. Key collection is made to leave the apartment and on time.
The hostess is in constant communication with the tenant by mail, giving information on all circumstances.
There is an instruction booklet explaining where supermarkets, pharmacies, operation of all elements of the floor (in French and English).
Certainly we would repeat (even in summer do not believe, because they do not have air conditioning force have the windows open).
El apartamento está perfectamente situado. Cocina completa, baño con ducha amplia, lavadora y lavavajillas. A 100 metros del Sena y 300 de Notre Dame. A 50 metros de la parada de metro (Saint Michel). Está al lado de una zona de restaurantes de todos los precios. Como defecto, le hace falta una mano de pintura, ya que la humedad de la zona hace que se despegue la pintura en algunas zonas.
Está situado encima de un pub irlandés, pero el aislamiento de las ventanas reduce casi a cero el ruido ambiente. Hemos estado 11 días y no nos ha molestado ni siquiera el fin de semana. Y es una zona muy concurrida.
La recogida de llaves al llegar es un poco complicada, ya que te obliga a hacer una parada, pero las instrucciones recibidas por correo son suficientemente explicativas. La recogida de llaves al marchar se hace en el apartamento y con puntualidad.
La anfitriona se comunica constantemente por mail con el inquilino, dándole información sobre cualquier circunstancia.
Hay un librito de instrucciones donde explican supermercados, farmacias, funcionamiento de todos los elementos del piso (en francés e inglés).
Sin duda repetiríamos (aunque en verano no creemos, ya que al no tener aire acondicionado obligaría a tener las ventanas abiertas).
I was charged a deposit equal to the rent, I had to take out cancellation insurance which cost me 45 €, and worst of all I got to Paris and did not even know where I had to pick up the keys and I caught the phone and had no at the offices of them, so I had to go to a hotel that day, after the apartment was above a piano bar had loud music until 4am they knew when he was traveling with a girl 2 years In short, I have embittered the trip to Paris, I am now in the process of complaint with them, so I do not recommend this company what it is though Windu her name appears, is called "A Paris Comme Chez Soi
me cobraron una fianza igual a el alquiler, tuve que hacerme un seguro de cancelación que me costo 45€, y lo peor de todo es que llegué a parís y no sabia ni donde tenia que recoger las llaves ni me cogían el teléfono ni había nadie en las oficinas de ellos, por lo que me tuve que ir a un hotel ese dia, después el apartamento estaba encima de un piano bar que tenia la música a tope hasta las 4 de la mañana sabiendo ellos que viajaba con una niña de 2 años, en resumen, me han amargado el viaje a Paris, ahora estoy en proceso de denuncia con ellos, asi que no recomiendo esta empresa que es lo que es aunque en windu aparezca el nombre de ella, se llama " A Paris comme chez soi
Everything in the apartment worked perfectly, it is exactly as it is in the pictures. Very close to many great places to eat, the metro/RER, grocery stores, shops, and most major attractions are walking distance
The only complaint is also a plus. The apartment is right in the middle of everything, but it can be noisy later at night (especially weekend) and mid morning with tour groups going by. It did not bother me, but I could see how a light sleeper might have a problem with it.
Marvelous apartment, the landlady Diane is extremely pleasant and efficient. Everything worked smoothly.
Highly recommended
Останавливались в квартире на 10 дней с 27 декабря до 9 января.
Квартира хорошая, уютная.
Минусы: шум каждое утро в 6 утра начинают убирать мусор, полотенце были не совсем новые и такое впечатление что не совсем чистые. Всего 4 небольших полотенца, на 2 человека на 10 дней ну совсем мало.
На 7 дней обнаружились мыши... это был ужас.
The flat was pleasantly decorated and clean. Good location, just by Notre Dame and Boulevard St Michel, and this is a very good asset of course. Unfortunately a very noisy musical bar underneath in the street played loud music until the early hours in the morning. Three of the rings in the cooker did not work from the very beginning of our stay, and the handbook instructions about this particular appliance were not too precise, so we had to work out how to operate the only working ring, it took a while. We indicated this to the agency, but the cooker was not repaired during our stay. The coffee machine did not work from the very beginning of our stay, but it was replaced a couple of days after we arrived. The area is full of restaurants of all types and prices. For us a good point was bookshops nearby, and walking distance from the Centre Pompidou library. The flat was well furnished with plates and pots. The shower cubicle is rather comfortable in size, and the main bed is big and provided with a comfortable mattress. The heating system was efficient. There is a big television set. Wifi internet worked only sporadically for the first half of our stay, but it was fine in the last few days. All in all, we had a pleasant stay despite the problems indicated here.
recommendable !

Hi I have a young tree in my garden in Scotland and it must only be four years old but the growth of this tree is staggering and ive been trying to find out just what kind of tree it is and hoping you guys may be able to help. Ive attatched a few photos, it must be nearly 15 ft tall and im constantly having to prune it to keep some sort of shape. Thanks hope someone out there will be able to help with this one.
It is a Salix.
That covers willows and sallows and osiers, and yours is in the sallow part of the genus.
I think it is Salix cinerea, common name usually grey willow (yes, willow rather than sallow just to be confusing)
However, there are hybrids (natural and man-made), so it is difficult to be sure.
Like most Salix, it can grow very quickly given suitable conditions.
Thanks Mike

True High-end
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
I have a lot to say, but brevity is required. I have been an audiophile since the early 1970s... Spent obscene amounts of money on high-fidelity gear over the years. These PSB Image T6s are not just a taste of high-end - these are true high-end audio speakers at an amazingly affordable price! (I would gladly compare these to many MUCH more expensive speakers I have heard over the years.) I cannot stress enough how important break-in time is to really get the best from these PSBs. At first listen, I thought they sounded a bit thin in the lower midrange (confirmed by my SPL meter/test disc from Stereophile magazine: there was a 5-6 dB suck-out centered at approx. 315 Hz) - and "hot" on top. After ~ 45 hours of use w moderate to somewhat loud music of all kinds, these traits had disappeared. (This might explain why some reviewers have said that the T6s don't sound quite right in the mids with rock music - break-in is crucial!) The Image T6s throw a remarkable soundstage, extending some six feet outside of each cabinet, with remarkable depth and a three-dimensional quality that is breath-taking! The low end is deep, solid and musical, blending beautifully into the transparent, nuanced mids and highs - the PSBs "disappear" into the music, to where the speakers as point-sources are invisible. You can hear "into" music. This is high-end, folks! The PSB Image T6s are highly recommended! Value for dollar spent is unmatched. Kudos to Paul Barton. Another masterpiece!

#15...So good it had to be retired twice
his numbers from that one good series in the playoffs last yr are misleading. its like carlos beltran who had a monstrous playoff run, and in the offseason, got paid big time.
james, in my opinion, will turn out to be a very bad signing by isiah. i donteven wanna make predictions about his stats, because i think that they will be so low, it wont matter...and he might not even be the starting center by the end of the yr.
All I can say is thank you Dampier never worked out... that was the most hyped bigman in a contract work that i've seen in a long time... 29 mill over 5 years for James... I don't think James will work out well... he'll be a bench player most likely after this season... nobody ever said he would be our SHAQ... but then again Shaq doesn't come cheap either, 100 mill over the next 5 years for a guys whose definitely on the way down... his best are behind him... we still need our big man, he'll come, let's be patience as we rebuild
heres the thing about Jerome James that doesnt bother me. Hes young and possibly could be turned into something have way decent. Even if he takes up space and blocks some shots thats better than nothing. He grabs some board, puts in a few tip ins, one dunk here or there and we made out. you might think im crazy but hear me out...
Nazr did the same exact thing but smaller. He didnt block as many shots as this guy will. He doesnt defend as good as this guy will. He didnt take up space like this guy will. and if we had kept Nazr who everyone loved (6'10) Nazr...we would of signed him for about the same or more. SO i think were making out here. Cheap tradeable contract. 5 years around 5.8 million. i think this is a plus.
#15...So good it had to be retired twice
Waste of Money!!!. knciks should be saving money to try and get under the cap! and if im right do u know who is a free agent of this season LeBron James and i know its a long shot but it wouldnt hurt to try.
lebrons not a free agent this season and plus with out mle which center besides jerome james wanted to come to ny. not dalembert because he resigned with philly, not curry because it would be a risk to sign him with his heart so jerome james was a good pick up
I agree. Jerome's presence improves the Knicks defense. He's got stregnth, and he def has potential. He CAN cover Shaq. JeromeJames isn't a Shaq or a Yao, or a Wallace, but he should be able to play his role and hopfully get his #'s up w/ more playing time. You can't load the team up w/ superstars. We have a better chance of MAKING an superstar w/ the players we have, than aquiring a superstar w/ FA $ignings. Jerome should fit in well.Originally Posted by NYKnicks15
I have faith in NY. If JeromeJames' & NY don't work out we can always trade him. All we can do is wait.
New York Basketball!!
I could be wrong but I think this was actually a good trade. 30 mill for 5 years isn't a bad deal. You guys make it sound as if he's getting 125 million over 7 years. Sound familure to any one? Ok ok I'll let that one go.... James does have potential and the east is still weak when it comes to the middle. Sure there's Shaq and Wallace, but those are the only two real dominate and nearly untradable centers in the east. James will do well, and lets not forget that Fry will take time to develope like every other rookie to come into the leage (with the execption of labron jame). A seven footer is a great thing to have.
btw look at the size difference between zeke and james...
Well, I'm looking to the bright side of this trade. He isn't a monsterous contract, and Larry could devlop him, he seems to have lots of potential. I think regardless, based on his size and the fact we know he can play, he has to be descent, and based on our options for a starting center, I like him...
Before Mr. Tayor taught the world to play
Before fiber glass, before parque
Before the world Doctor was spelled with a "J"
And ballrooms were ball courts where the renissance played
Before hype and before the dunk
After the rythm but before the funk
It was only a ball, and the soul of the game
Bleed oRaNgE & bLuE, the only way to bleed
Quick note...this isnt a trade. its a free agent signing.
please try to limit the one sentence answers..
on that note..
anyone have predictions on numbers for this year? ppg, mpg, bpg, rpg?
and for fun what number jersey should he wear?
keep it rolling guys!!
#15...So good it had to be retired twice
we got a legit 7ft big body center for midlevel contract i don't see why it would be considered a very bad signing by isiah its better than giving it to another "center" in a power forwards body like most people suggested and hope we would do i'm very very excited about this pick up theres no questioning about where he belongs on court i'm pretty sure larry brown will get the most he can out of him. =)
jerome james is not young y are people saying that....i think he will be turning 30 real soon...
its a good short term aqusation untill frye develops and puts some meat on....jerome was a great aquirement tho but i would of rather of gotten stromile swift....
i love swift...he is one of the only players who arent on the knicks who i am a fan of.....
Defense will improve tremendously with James down there to intimidate players and Frye with his shot blocking ability will see time with Brown at helm.
This guy sucks - We've had him warming up our bench in Seattle for a while now - he finally decided to resemble a baskeball player in one series against the Kings - but then against the Spurs and a real center he went back to his hole - Dont expect anything from this guy - If he gets you 8-9 ppg and 5-6 boards be thrilled (he sucks at rebounding) - its not like we had any true center in Seattle for the past 4 years - it was suppose to be him and seattle fans have been crying ever since for signing this tool

Police probe fatal German workshop fire
Investigators are combing through the charred debris of a workshop for the disabled in Germany, where a fire claimed 14 lives.
Police confirmed on Tuesday that those killed by smoke inhalation were 13 disabled adults and one staff member of the Catholic charity-run facility in the Black Forest region of southwestern Germany.
Germany was shocked by the tragedy on Monday, which started with an explosion in a storage room and saw people flee in panic from the woodwork and metalcraft workshop in the city of Titisee-Neustadt.
A patient protection group demanded tougher fire safety rules in disabled care facilities, with one group calling current standards "unbearable", as it emerged the facility had no sprinkler system.
Police cautioned that "there is no information yet on the cause of the accident as a meticulous investigation has yet to be completed".
They were to give a press conference later to identify the dead.
The blaze claimed the lives of 13 people with disabilities - 10 women aged from 28 to 68 and three men aged 45 to 68 - and killed a female caregiver aged 50. Nine people were seriously injured.
Survivors and relatives of the dead were still receiving counselling, and the city of Titisee-Neustadt was planning a memorial service for those killed, said its mayor Armin Hinterseh.
The facility for people with mental or multiple disabilities is run by the Catholic charity Caritas, with the aim of integrating handicapped people and giving them a meaningful occupation.
Caritas president Peter Neher told German broadcaster ZDF that emergency drills were regularly held at the site, but that fire safety regulations would be reviewed.
"Of course, after a catastrophe like this ... all operational plans, all emergency measures need to be reviewed," he said.
Patient protection group the German Hospice Foundation demanded that all such facilities be fitted with sprinkler systems within four years, in comments in the daily Neue Osnabruecker Zeitung.
"What applies to German airports must also apply to disabled care facilities," said its board member Eugen Brysch, urging speedy government action and asking facilities to move even quickly.
"They should take safety into their own hands," he said, labelling current conditions "unbearable" and pointing out that fires were a regular occurrence in disabled facilities that could be prevented.
The government expert on such care facilities, Willi Zylajew, denied there were systemic problems, saying: "Fire regulations for care and disabled facilities are extremely high and perfectly adequate and are usually followed correctly."

Supreme Court: Vermont state workers don't get double pay
MONTPELIER (AP) - The Vermont Supreme Court has denied 63 state workers who wanted double pay for working while displaced from their offices following Tropical Storm Irene.
The court affirmed an August 2013 decision from the Vermont Labor Relations Board, ruling that the workers weren't entitled to extra money because the "emergency" situation was technically over a day after the storm.
The Vermont State Employees Association, which represents state workers, had appealed the board decision to the state Supreme Court last July.
Flooding from the storm nearly three years ago closed the state complex in Waterbury and the Department of Motor Vehicles office in Rutland. Employees were forced to work from home or in other makeshift locations.
The employees argued their contract entitled them to double pay, but the state Labor Board and the Vermont Supreme Court on Friday disagreed.
Demolition and site work has been underway for months for construction of a new state office complex that will replace the series of buildings in Waterbury that became unusable after the flooding. The $125 million project includes a new 86,000-square-foot office building, a 20,000-square-foot central plant and the renovation of 13 buildings that were on the site before the flood.
Construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2015, and the building become home to about 900 employees of the Agency of Human Services.

Bullet Voting As A Voting Strategy
Original post made by Student Advocate, Another Palo Alto neighborhood, on Oct 26, 2012

I voted for Ken Dauber, too. However, now that people are somewhat aware of bullet voting, will more of them do it, or be repulsed by the idea?
Something about it just does not feel right, even if it is legal. My experience has shown me that if something feels wrong, it usually is. Perhaps not legally, but morally or ethically.
Also important to know: did Ken Dauber know about emails encouraging the practice, or was this done by someone else on their own?
a resident of JLS Middle School
on Oct 26, 2012 at 4:36 pm
I think this is a tempest in a tea pot personally. The email was sent by an over-enthusiastic supporter, not by the candidate. Ken sent an email to my friend at Hays saying that he didn't send it and that he is voting for Melissa. So this should not reflect on him.
On the other hand, poor Ken has been the victim of a lot of negative email, negative leaflets, even a nasty letter containing a line of personal attack here in PA Weekly (bad on the Weekly for publishing the personal attack by Hays). Different standards apply to the Committee of 400 than the regular people who post here, I guess.
What is a campaign asking people to vote for anyone but Ken as has been run by some of our so-called community leaders such as Camille Townsend? Reverse bullet voting, if you ask me.
Just vote for who you like and don't vote for who you don't.
Trust Palo Alto to make it complicated.
a resident of Another Palo Alto neighborhood

@Ducatigirl: I have known about maximizing odds of a candidate winning in multi-candidate races for years. It is a common and well know practice. It just makes sense if you do the math and it doesn't really require someone with average or above intelligence much to do much thinking to come to this conclusion on their own. It would not take an email from a friend encouraging me to do so for me to get the idea. For you if it feels wrong then you shouldn't do it. For me there is nothing about morals or ethics. I find it much more unethical for me to have to go to the polls in so many elections voting against a candidate rather than for a candidate (so many of the presidential elections have been about voting against). Ethically, it feels great for me to be able to vote for someone that I feel really good about. BTW, this is not a discussion about emails
so I will refrain from comment on this. It is just about voting strategies. You will find my opinions about Ken and the other candidates on other threads.

I don't think the thread were deleted because of the topic of bullet voting, but the fact that they included an email about it.
I was listening to the radio recently (KLIV) and there was an opinion piece about voting. The speaker suggested that generally speaking most voters in a multi faceted election (like we have this time around) are only passionate and well versed in certain topics. He went on to say that unless a voter had a passion or had done a great deal of research on all the different races, it was sensible to only vote for those candidates or those races in which the voter had a passion or strong feelings for. In other words, it is OK to cherry pick the ballot and only vote for what the voter really wanted rather than to feel obliged to fill in every box.
This was a well thought out opinion because otherwise people may vote for reasons other than what they should.
I hope this is not edited out as I know I have passed on my thoughts on what I heard and it cannot be verified. But it made a lot of sense to me and I agree that if you only have one person who you really want that it makes no sense to choose other names just to fill in the blanks.

Talking with several citizens who grew up in other democracies, having different jurisdictions and voting systems presented to me the possibility that - "shrewd voting strategy" or "does not feel right" (copied from above) is just a matter of geography.
It did not cross the mind of those growing elsewhere that all the bubbles need to be filled. Simple. Voting for one preferred option could have resulted from of not knowing enough of the other options, or not caring.

I remember talking about this idea a long time ago at a League lunch. If I remember right, it is really about making sure that you are not voting against yourself. If you really want one candidate to win and are less excited about the others, then you would be silly to vote for your favorite candidate and then go on to give another one of your votes to their opponent. You could be cancelling out your own vote, and helping your less preferred candidate to beat your more preferred candidate. It makes sense to me, why vote in a way that makes it less likely that the election will come out the way that you want?
For the school board election, I want to try to get Caswell and Dauber elected, since I think they will make a good team. I will vote for both of them (not just Dauber), but other people could have different ideas.
I don't understand what determinant is saying, since nobody is saying that people shouldn't vote. I have been so involved in the League because I think everyone should participate in our local elections.

Kent's approach is "if you vote for me, don't vote for anyone else" . I would have thought the difference was obvious.

@Determinant, I have been receiving some very negative email from supporters of Camille and Heidi saying that I should vote for a slate to stop Ken from winning. I do not appreciate this negative campaigning at all since it has nothing to do with our schools (particularly since some of it is coming from someone who doesn't even live here any more).
I have decided to vote just for Ken and Melissa because I am offended by the negative campaigning. I want to offset this by not voting for them so that their slate plan won't work. I was actually planning to vote for Camille and said so on one of these forums but I am offended by the negative campaigning and I will not do it. My votes are going to Melissa Caswell and Ken Dauber.

I am so glad this whole bullet voting thing was brought up as a post. I really am enjoying and appreciating everyone's input. Seriously, it has been educational, because this is new territory for me.
However, I have to agree with JLS mom, that all this negative campaigning is really off-putting. These are adults acting like adolescents! What must our children be thinking as they observe this???

"I do not appreciate this negative campaigning at all since it has nothing to do with our schools (particularly since some of it is coming from someone who doesn't even live here any more)."
I don't know what you're talking about - can you post those emails? Are they just sending out media endorsements or do they directly say "don't vote for Ken"?
Making sure everyone understands the impact of their vote is about the district and our schools. [Portion removed by Palo Alto Online staff.]

I also do not appreciate the negative campaign smearing going on against Ken Dauber and decided to vote only for him as I don't know which other School board candidate's camp has been spearheading this nastiness. The three women school board candidates have not seemed to have taken any steps to stop any of it thus demeaning all three of them in my eyes. I wish they had stepped up together and said, "Please, let's focus on the issues and keep everything above board." Instead they have been silent thus complicit. I cannot vote for such people and therefore have voted only for Ken Dauber, the only candidate who has run a professional and clean campaign. That's the kind of School Board member I want.

To be clear, Dauber's supporter promoted bullet voting and, from the stories I read, Dauber did nothing to discourage it and appreciated the support. [Portion removed by Palo Alto Online staff.]
I don't think that's negative campaigning - that's just the facts about what he has done. He may have good ideas (or not - really I don't know), but I don't like his tactics and I worry that he brings a divisiveness to the board.

This procedure is used to remove skin cancer that affects the face and other sensitive areas. The cancer is removed layer by layer. The tissue is examined under a microscope until only healthy tissue remains.
This surgery is most often used to treat
squamous cell carcinomas
and other more rare skin cancers that:
This surgery is an effective and precise way to treat basal and squamous cell skin cancers. It offers a good chance for complete removal of the cancer, while sparing normal tissue.
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have Mohs surgery, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complication, such as:
In the time leading up to the procedure:
Local anesthesia will be used. You will not feel pain, but you will be awake during the procedure.
The area will be cleansed with antiseptic. A local anesthetic will be injected into the area. Using a small scalpel, the top visible portion of the cancer will be removed. Next, another, deeper layer will be removed. The layer will be divided into sections. Each section will be color coded. This will allow the doctor to know exactly where the layer was in the skin.
These sections will be frozen and examined under a microscope for remaining cancer cells. If cancer is found at the edges of the removed layer, the doctor will go back to the precise section. Additional layers will be removed until all areas are cancer free. For larger wound areas, the wound will be closed with stitches, a skin flap, or a
skin graft
procedure. Small, shallow wounds may heal without stitches.
You will have to wait while the tissue is examined microscopically. In some cases, this procedure can last for several hours.
You should have minimal discomfort during the procedure. There will be some minor pain during recovery. You may be given pain medication.
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection, such as:
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chances of infection, such as:
After the procedure, you may be given pain medication and an antibiotic. You will be able to leave the same day.
When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occur:
If you think you have an emergency, call for emergency medical services right away.

*Sees mention of Nutella* Me love Nutella. I actually eat it with just a spoon sometimes. It's really a no bread or anything else required type of thing. Though it's good on bread or toast . Oh and I am on cloud nine today. Yeah, that happens when the people you used to work for as a nanny say good things about you and tell the people you had an interview with today that they would hire you again if there was the opportunity.
So today has been a good day thus far. I hope you all doing well. Sorry you're in a funk Obie.

I know everyone's glued to the news right now trying to figure out what piece of information they can get out of the "Batman" movie theater shooting in Aurora, Colorado to keep themselves safe in the future. However, the fact is there isn't any.
You could say, "Well, since children were killed and injured, perhaps the parents shouldn't have brought children to a movie theater at midnight in the summer (much less a 6-year-old) to see a PG-13 movie." But that's not fair. They're not in the slightest way responsible for what happened. They should have the right to take their kids to a movie if they want to (even if it has a PG-13 rating). You could argue, "It sounds like the shooter put some tape on the lock to the emergency exit to get into the theater and somebody should have noticed it and prevented this from happening." But seriously, who looks for tape on door locks? The first thing you'd think is that some kids had wanted to sneak into the movie, and if they were already inside and saw the movie, why would they try to sneak in again?
"What about checking people before they went into the theater?" But tear gas, guns…who imagines that? Interestingly enough, a lot of people thought this was a fun thing the theater did for the "Batman" movie.
And of course somebody already said to me, "Oh my god, how crazy is he?" To people like that, I can only shake my head. Crazy is talking to lampposts. Crazy is seeing elephants that are pink. Crazy has to do with hallucinations, delusions, and the like. This guy is not crazy. He's just evil. He planned out everything beautifully. He was totally prepared with guns, a bulletproof vest, and canisters of tear gas. I mean he even picked The Dark Knight Rises at midnight. This was drama.
I'm sure he's going to get some defense attorney who's going to argue that he was molested by his mother's cousin's uncle's grandpa, and when he got to this age, he just felt compelled to kill people. I mean just ridiculous crap.
But in my opinion: he enjoyed every moment.
When you think back to things like the Bataan Death March, Pol Pot in Cambodia, the concentration camps in Germany, Russia massacring millions of people, and the wholesale murdering of innocent people in Syria, Egypt, and Africa, all of these tragedies were orchestrated by evil people – people who enjoyed it. If you're a German soldier throwing a baby up in the air and using it for target practice, or lining up children and mowing them down, that's not insane, that's just plain evil. A lot of you want to think these people are crazy because then you can fix them with a pill or therapy. But people like Charles Manson and all his little buddies, they weren't crazy. They weren't disconnected from reality at all. Instead, they wanted to change reality into something for them to feel more powerful, special, and connected. That's not crazy.
A lot of you don't want to accept that there is evil. One of the reasons the world has gotten so dangerous is that the level of sociopathy has increased dramatically. Today, we're surrounded by heroism for bad guys. I mean when I grew up, everything I saw on TV or in the movies was the good guy wearing a white hat, the bad buy wearing a black hat, and the bad guy always got it in the end. I didn't grow up seeing all these gangster rap videos with females gyrating all over the place and guys calling for people's deaths, hating women, and hurting people. I just didn't grow up seeing that as entertainment. When I grew up there was right and wrong, right won, and you took care of wrong – you didn't just stand by.
So, when I look at this horrible tragedy, the lesson learned is not about parents taking their kids to a PG-13 movie late at night or tape on a lock. The main thing to learn from this is that we need to keep our eyes open, and get involved if we think someone is a problem. Bring them to the attention of the police or FBI. I ask people all the time on my program, "This has been going on how long? Children have been at risk how long? Who has called Child Protective Services? Who has called the police?, etc." And do you know what answer I normally get?: "I haven't told anybody. I didn't want to get anybody mad." Stop worrying about upsetting people. Bad people need to be "cut off at the pass."
For all you folks who choose to stand by and don't do anything because you don't want to upset your family, know that you're also perpetrators. No, in fact, you're worse. You're cowards.

[ Sign the Climber's Log ]
|N.W. couloir
Date Climbed: Jun 19, 2011
|Sketchy climb! I expected more snow,but got Lots of ice , and loose 4th/5th class climbing.(CRAMPONS ON CRAMPONS OFF, REPEAT) Went down the red gully route, for a tour of the Crestones.
|Posted Jun 23, 2011 12:17 pm
|Ted Eliason
|Loved it
|Reminded me of Teewinot in the Tetons. Good steep snow for Colorado.
|Posted Jan 17, 2009 12:16 pm
|Couple times
Date Climbed: Aug 18, 1991
|This was my first climb of the Peak. I went up and down the NW couloir. My partner waited lower in the couloir as I went on to the summit. On the top it was fogged in. It was an island in the sky! On the return crossing the ridge between Bears Playground and the Humbolt saddle I saw lightning strike the Needle!
I returned to this route on 8-5-00. This time we went down the Red Couloir and over to Broken Hand. We then completed a big day by doing the Need le via the standard route.
|Posted Apr 2, 2008 10:53 pm
Date Climbed: Jul 22, 2005
|Ascended the Red Couloir and descended the NW couloir. Considerably stepper than the south face with looser detritus on the ledges. Had a scare descending a patch of snow as I slid ~10-15 feet before I was able to arrest.
|Posted Jun 18, 2007 1:51 pm
|almost slid off on descent on the middle.
Date Climbed: Jul 14, 1994
|This was the end of two 14 plus Mile days wiht lots of snow. I almost slid off of a rock ledge on the right side near the middle of the couloir.
Great Peaks!BrotherDirk was along for this one.
|Posted Aug 15, 2006 8:43 pm
|This route definately requires some good route finding skills. I referred to roach's book. did it solo, still alot of snow at the end of august. had to cross the snowy couloir a bit of the way up because the right side of the snow became unclimbable so i went to the left side and made my way from there. I REALLY wish i had crampons/axe. it would have made my experience much more sane.

So glad Ven spouted his "The other designers were so lucky line..." on stage. Keep diggin' that grave, darlin'.
And kudos to Heidi for slapping him down! You go, girl!
Unfortunately, Nathan's dress is just as bad, so he'll probably go home.
Nathan declared out, while both Sonjia and Ven are left behind on the stage. Sonjia safe, then the judges slap down Ven again. Back in the workroom, he just digs that grave deeper. Spouts off about how he shouldn't have been in the bottom since there were worse looks. Disgusted looks from the other designers.
Tim tells Nathan that it will be sad to lose him because not only was he talented, he had a great character. Whoo hoo! I love you, Tim!

I really don't understand what you must be doing wrong but the way you're describing the combat system does not tally with how it works in my experience :/

Info-mailer for "Circular Saw"
Subscribe and receive new product announcements NO SPAM!
Almost finished
Please click the link in the email we just sent you, to complete the subscription process.
Circular saws are one of the few cutting machines tools with several geometrically defined cutting edges, which can operate continuously. On TradeMachines you can find used circular saws up for auction
The structure and function of a metal cutting circular saw
All hand-held circular saws, and even most machine tools, can only undertake discontinuous sawing operations. These metal circular saws require an idle stroke for every working stroke. The cut is restricted by the length of the saw blade, after which the saw blade needs to move in the other direction and be guided back to the starting position. There are only a few saws and saw blades that can be used in both directions. The circular saw does not have this restriction because it has a seemingly infinitely long saw blade. When looking at the typology of machine tools, the circular saw is somewhat derived from the milling machine. The circular saw blade is, in principle, a thinner rolling mill with a larger diameter. The disadvantage of this is the depth to which the metal cutting circular saw blades are inserted in the cut. For this reason, circular saw for sale can only produce particularly straight cuts. Due to the continual operation, small circular saws usually are able to produce a very even cut.
History and Development From a Small Circular Saw to a Circular Saw Table
Different types and designs of circular saws and their areas of applicationThe invention of the circular saw cannot be historically confirmed. It appears in patents from the 18th century, but is not patented itself. Therefore, it must have been around earlier. The steam engines at the beginning of the 19th century provided enough power to drive the very large circular saws in sawmills, which had saw blades with diameters of up to 3 metres. The hand-held circular saw was based on an invention from 1923 and led to the company SKILSAW being founded.
Due to their continuous method of operation, an electric circular saw has a higher average level of power than saws that change their direction of movement, like hacksaws. Circular saw blades are only suited for straight cuts, and so they are used in all areas where a particularly high cutting performance and a precise, straight cut is required. There are hand-held, battery-powered circular saws available for using on the go. Special types of hand circular saw are used for cutting cement, asphalt or natural stones. If a higher level of cutting power is required, e.g. on construction sites, then circular saw benches can be used. With this type of device, the saw is fixed onto a work table, called circular saw table, and the saw blade protrudes through the table's panel from the bottom. With a panel saw, the workpiece moves into a guide that is usually put into the exact position required using the help of built-in scales. For particularly hard materials, a circular saw blade with diamond-studded teeth can be used. On TradeMachines, you can find a wide range of circular saws on sale, including cordless circular saw, small circular saw, compact circular saw, portable circular saw, table circular saw, with the promise to offer you the best circular saw according to your requirements.
Metal Circular Saw Manufacturers
Metal cutting circular saws are produced by, for example, ALTENDORF, BOSCH, EISELE, KALTENBACH, SCM and ULMIA. To complete the market sarvy one should also check MAKITA circular saw and BOCSH circular saw as they are one of the most popular manufacturers out there

The Phillies Night Before Christmas
The Phillies Night Before Christmas
Twas the night before Christmas, when all over the field,
Not a player was stirring, as the Championship had been sealed.
The bats were stacked in the clubhouse with care,
In hopes that a repeat soon would be there.
The Phillies were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of trophies danced in their heads.
And Charlie with his new contract tucked into his cap,
Had just settled down for a long off-season nap.
When out in his living room, there arose such a clatter,
Charlie sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window he stumbled, half asleep,
Having woke from a nightmare of Utley's speech not getting bleeped.
The moon light lit up the trophy, causing it to glow
And gave the illusion of a night game on the grass down below.
When, what to his wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh filled with ballplayers, all carrying beer.
With a very old driver, so grumpy, yet quick,
He knew in a moment it must be Pat Gillick.
More rapid than the trade deadline, forward they all came,
And he grumbled, and shouted, and called them by name!
"Now Utley! Now, Howard! Now, Rollins and Feliz!
On, Victorino! On, Werth! On, Lidge and Ruiz!
To the top of the National League! To the top of them all!
Now run away! Run away! And play some baseball!"
And then, in a twinkling, Charlie heard, "You The Man!"
From the shouting and cheering of each happy fan.
As he drew in his head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney Jimmy Rollins came with a bound.
He was dressed all in pinstripes, from his head to his foot,
And his MVP plaque was all tarnished, with ashes and soot.
But he also had a ring and Charlie gave him a pat on his back,
His much improved hustle, had him right back on track.
Jimmy spoke many words, but getting on with his job,
He filled Charlie's ears with praise from the mob.
And in their joy, the fans stomped the roof,
As Charlie had delivered and given them proof!
Jimmy then sprang to the sleigh, and to his team gave a call,
"You guys are the best ballplayers of all!"
But Charlie heard him exclaim, as he drove out of sight,
"The Phillies are World Champions! Let's party all night!"

Photographer's Note
Also see WORKSHOP
Dedicated to HELGA Halldorsdottir og HALLGRÍMUR Olafsson.
This image is of their abandoned house on the farm that they called Dagverðará.
Also dedicated to Helga's brother, Þórður Halldorsson, "the last Icelandic sorcerer
In the background is the volcano and glacier Snæfellsjökull.
Story of the image:
A peculiar weather event began as we were driving up a track towards the glacier on the south western side of the mountain. On recollection the event seemed to begin after we had observed an unusual, small, dark, single plume of cloud at what appeared to be the summit of the mountain. Not long after we had made this observation a fog descended on us and we were forced to turn back to avoid becoming lost in the fog. On the way back nothing appeared to be unusual about the weather accept that the fog continued to follow us down the mountain. From memory, the air was reasonably still. There was still time to grab a few photos on the way back down. We stopped a couple of times. However, when we made it back onto the main road a tremendous wind occurred.
Looking back at the mountain one could see that the whole top of the mountain top was encased in billowing clouds of fog and above that were streams of cloud in what appeared to be tremendously intense jet streams of wind. On alighting from the car we found that the wind outside was so strong that you could lean into it and be supported by it. Given the strength of the wind at ground level it seemed to be very peculiar that the wind did not wipe the cloud away from the mountain. The mountain seemed to be encased in a protective atmosphere which appeared to be separate to that of the surrounding area. It was as if a force field had encased the mountain.
I decided that I should look for a suitable location to take some photos. I remembered a road nearby that led down towards a deserted house. I began taking photos there. At this location was a monument. I did quickly photograph the monument but did not comprehend the inscriptions (they were in Icelandic). I should have taken more interest in the monument but I was too busy taking photos of the atmospheric event. I found out later, after some online research, that the place was Dagverðará which had some interesting historical connections to the The last Icelandic sorcerer.
My research also revealed some interesting things about Snæfellsjökull which might explain the weather event which we had just witnessed.
About Snæfellsjökull:
Snæfellsjökull is the smallest glacier in Iceland, but one of their most famous volcanoes. Its main claim to fame is being featured as the entrance to Earth's center in the book Journey to the Center of the Earth by Jules Verne.
The crater under the summit Djúpalónssandur is 200 metres deep, full of ice and surrounded by icy crags.
Some people also consider Snæfellsjökull to be an enormous source of energy and it is often visited by those with an interest in the spiritual and supernatural.
The volcano last erupted near 1800 years ago, spouting ashes over the Northern part of Snæfellsnes and the Westfjords.
The Snaefellsjokull is an enduring source of inspiration for mystics, artists, photographers and poets. It is the well-spring of Icelandic mythology, looming over a strange land where dwarves still lurk in the crannies, elves hide in the mossy banks and ogres stomp across the ice.
The volcano is shrouded in Viking legends of an evil love triangle, ghosts, trolls, elves and spirits. Snaefellsjokull allegedly is one of the worlds seven most powerful fields of mystical energy, akin to the Egyptian and Mayan pyramids.
Snaefellsjokull is sometimes called the holiest place in Iceland.
About Dagverðará

Hiya Trevor
a good and long note to described the reasons of the shot. The white cloud looks like snow covering a mountain, and the deserted house seems to have been blown up by the wind.
Nice B&W picture telling a story
SteveH (6429) 2013-10-22 4:32
Hi Trevor,
Striking image. B&W works well with the high contrast between the white clouds and other elements. I like the compositon. Nature provided you with good material that day. Cheers,
aleXundar (1256) 2013-10-22 9:48
Hello Trevor,
A very good pictorial documentation of your amazing experience. Very well taken shots (I include the WS also) of the clouds and the storm.
Well done. Thanks for the detailed note.

Hello Trevor,
There are few memebers here on TE,who really know how to process pictures in B&W.And I´m glad to discover your gallery.
Beautiful landscape with really amazing looking cloud formations.That,together with the abandoned house create unique mood of the shot.
Kind regards

Hello, interesting view of the ruins with the mysterious cloud band and the streaks of clouds in the upper sky. Good notes about the adventure you had. I have enjoyed viewing your themes and hope to see more of them.
Wanda1 (15142) 2014-07-31 6:52
Hi Trevor,
Wow, the two different types of clouds are great in this scene. I like the old abandoned farm house which is placed off centre in your composition, and the whole image has a mystery mood which is enhanced by your use of black and white that I like.

Discussion in 'Shoes and Apparel' started by aweil, Dec 5, 2012.
So too many colors?
See, that one sort of works. They've got the blue base and the yellow flare thing going on. They didn't go crazy and try too much with the soles for example.
^ They are badass, for the black i'd go with red laces
This is the only design that made me want to pay double for the shoes.
10 chars
Darth Federer shoes.
Why in the world does the red keep showing up like hot pink?
Nice renditions, BUT who has actually purchased a pair?!
Might do it this week
I just got a pair, set me back a bit will post when I get them. I am in Aus so had to go thru a 3rd party.
I'd like to know too.
Could you please stop posting your renditions. Thank you.
Ain't nobody told you to look.
Aye, collateral damage. You have my apologies.
I find your avatar disgusting also. Please change it.
It looks like a 14 year old boys butt.
Please at least crop the 80% of the image off which is wasted screen space.
Stepanek's choice of shoe.
my design
Well played.
I did on the 26th. Black/grey/white. Who knows how long the offer will last and if we'll ever have another shot? I'll post a pic with my other shoes when they arrive.
Cleaner shot of Cincy...
Cleaner shot of USO Night...
Don't know if I will buy it or not, but if I do I would certainly go with one of these design :
(same kind of what I did with the 2k11iD)
What do you think ?
Really like the bottom right. I say go for it!
Bottom right for sure, Raph.
I'd vote upper left. But they're going to get dirty. The dark colors are the way to go.
I also vote for the bottom right. Congrats, these ones really look nice.
Bottom left and right both look really good. Very simple and clean. Too many people go crazy with these bright dayglow color's.
holy molly. that Pick and Black is HOT at TW
A piece of info for anyone ordering a pair of these from Nike ID.
I had to ring to process my order and asked about width clarification.
They said that Tour Fit is the closest to the retail fit and that Wide is wider... The description on the NIKEiD page (below where you design your shoes) is very misleading in this regards.
usefull info ! Thanks
Yep.. I googled about it from previous models and the way they explained it to me on the phone seemed wrong so I asked for the lady to check and her supervisor was adamant that Tour Fit = same as retail.
The wording on their page is
"This tennis shoe is available in a Tour Fit for a secure, locked-down feel on the court, and in a standard True Fit that's slightly wider for extra room."
To me this should mean Tour Fit is the narrower fit but they confuse the issue but referring to the wider True Fit as being "standard". I would have assumed standard = retail but they say otherwise.
Hope this helps someone avoid any issues (or, conversely, it will mean I'll be getting a replacement pair free )
I ordered mine in the "tour fit" as the retail version fits me nicely.
Ordered- I am most excite
I had no imagination and ripped off Fed's OZ day shoe. I will have other customizations added when I recieve it.
Nothing wrong with that.
I thought you'd go with a SA Spurs shoe. You're going to like mine when they arrive and I post a pic.
I wish the white could be washed; the more I see the white with black trim and the peach swoosh, the more I like it.
Borelli did you end up the guinea pig and ordering the cool greys?? If so I'd love to see live pics once you get them, I'm really wanting to pull the trigger on a very similar looking pair.
4 people that have pulled the trigger? and this thread has 10 pages..
Separate names with a comma.

Social networking is big business in the internet economy. Two of the largest players in the U.S. and global social networking world are MySpace and Facebook. Facebook was once the new kid on the block up against the established MySpace, but that had now drastically changed.
According to the most recent data from ComScore, Facebook is now quickly outpacing MySpace in the number of users. Adage reports that in June of 2008 the two social networking sites were the same size in terms of unique users.
Since June of last year, Facebook has started pulling swiftly away from MySpace in terms of users with Facebook posting growth of 10 percent per month as MySpace stays the same in terms of traffic.
Facebook now claims 200 million unique users to MySpace's 100 million according to Adage. The glut of the growth Facebook has experienced comes from countries other than America. MySpace is quick to point out that while Facebook has outpaced it in unique visitors, it still sells more ads.
MySpace issued a statement saying, "We are laser focused on building a sustainable global business which we measure by profits and revenue -- not just eyeballs. In a tough economic climate, our international revenue is up 30% year over year and we continue to focus on those markets with the strong monetization opportunities. Additionally, MySpace continues to dominate the U.S. market -- where the bulk of online advertising revenues reside -- both in terms of monetization and user engagement with more than 76 million unique users and a 40% spike in engagement year over year."
Adage also notes that if you take the latest ComScore data showing about a billion global Internet users, the 200 million users of Facebook equates to about one in every five Internet users visiting the site. Last year Facebook was looking for a new home after growing so much its facility was too small.

Orange County U.S. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Huntington Beach, has introduced legislation that would stop the federal government from prosecuting citizens acting in accordance with their state's marijuana laws.
H.R. 1523, the Respect State Marijuana Laws Act of 2013, would legalize marijuana only to the extent that it's legal at the individual state level.
"This bipartisan bill represents a common-sense approach that establishes federal government respect for all states' marijuana laws," Rohrabacher said in a press release. "It does so by keeping the federal government out of the business of criminalizing marijuana activities in states that don't want it to be criminal."
The press release continues: "The bill's approach to marijuana policy is seemingly consistent with the views of a solid majority of voters. A recent Pew Research poll found 60% of Americans believe, 'the federal government should not enforce federal laws prohibiting the use of marijuana in states where it is legal' " [emphasis in the original].
Marijuana is legal in California to treat medical problems. It was recently legalized for all purposes in Washington state and Colorado. In all, 18 states and the District of Columbia have legalized marijuna to some degree.
The bill is so simple, it would only add one sentence to federal law: "Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the provisions of this subchapter related to marihuana shall not apply to any person acting in compliance with State laws relating to the production, possession, distribution, dispensation, administration, or delivery of marihuana" [sic].
H.R. 1523 is co-sponsored by Reps. Justin Amash, R-Michigan; Earl Blumenauer, D-Oregon; Steve Cohen, D-Tennessee; Jared Polis, D-Colorado; and Don Young, R-Arkansas.

In his first year on the U.S. Rowing Team, Seth Weil, 26, has already won medals twice for his country. In July the Menlo Park native won gold in the Men's Four at the Samsung World Cup in Lucerne, Switzerland, his first international competition.
The same team, including members Mike Gennaro, Henrik Rummel and Grant James, also took bronze at the World Rowing Championships in Chungju, South Korea, in August.
As a member of the U.S. Rowing's senior national team, Weil will represent the U.S. at the highest level of international competition, including the 2014 World Cup II in France and the World Cup III in Switzerland.
Meanwhile, he will continue his training in Princeton, where he lives with a host family along with a teammate. He ultimately hopes to compete in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.
Weil began rowing in 2005 while a student at UC Davis, where he trained for six years. He is a graduate of Menlo-Atherton High School, where he was a member of the robotics team that placed third at a national competition. He also played first trumpet for the Advanced Jazz Band and traveled with them through Europe.

I see that many riders have had problems with the F800GS Vario Top Case. Problem seems to be that the case is very difficult to expand or collapse. I have completely disassembled mine and found no broken or misaligned parts. I cleaned it well and reassembled it and found that it was still stuck tight. I disassembled it again and tried applying a thin lubricant to the rubber gasket that seals the gap between the top and bottom parts of the case. Even then it was very difficult to operate and I fear breaking it if I try to force it. It's winter and I believe that the plastic cases have contracted making the fit much too tight. My next step would be to remove the rubber gasket and simply use a liner to keep items dry if any small amounts of water were to penetrate the case. Until then the case will remain in the expanded position. I store my helmet in the case and actually have no reason to collapse it.
I would like to know if anyone has any thoughts about a permanent fix for the Vario Top Case. Returning it to the dealer for warranty is still possible, but would it be worth it, or would any replacement case be just as bad as the first. I think it's a faulty design issue anyway.
