Negative attacks, they say, have long been part of politics. In "Going Dirty: the Art of Negative Campaigning" by David Mark, we're told that in the 1828 presidential election, Andrew Jackson's political allies nicknamed John Quincy Adams "the Pimp," a reference to "a rumor that while he was ambassador to Russia a decade earlier, he had coerced a young woman into having an affair with a czar."

The Conjuring (R)
Cast: Patrick Wilson, Vera Farmiga, Ron Livingston, Lili Taylor
Release Date: July 19, 2013
Runtime: 1 hr. 52 mins.
Genre: Horror, Suspense/Thriller
Based on a true story, the film tells the horrifying tale of how world renowned paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren were called upon to help a family terrorized by a dark presence in a secluded farmhouse. Forced to confront a powerful demonic entity, the Warrens find themselves caught in the most terrifying case of their lives.Watch Trailer
It is a bit of unfortunate irony that the film genre most reliant on shocks is wont to spit out the least surprising entries on the market. While a good horror movie is an unappreciated gem, most of them wind up conflated with its interchangeable brethren, difficult to distinguish in any way other than its headlining cast (and even there you're bound to see a ton of overlap). Most horror movies don't have a lot to show in the face of originality, which is why it is such a disappointment when one with actually venerable material shifts it to the sidelines in favor of the same old song and dance. The Conjuring, a culprit of this crime, doesn't know what kind of majesty it has in its team of exorcists: a spiritually-inclined, ghost-busting expert Ed Warren (Patrick Wilson) and his even more adept, albeit frequently ghoul-afflicted, wife Lorraine (Vera Farmiga), their eager lackey Drew (Shannon Kook), and a skeptical lawman who saddles up for the expedition at hand the abolition of the evil inside the Perron household. But the real nightmarish infestation here: the Perrons.
While most of the scenes devoted to the crack team of demon hunters are scary, emotional, fun, or just plain interesting (a high point in the movie comes in the form of a somber, macabre montage that oversees the foursome upholding their routine of keeping peace in the haunted home), the film lends a good deal of its attention to the frightened civilians, Roger (Ron Livingson) and Cynthia (Lili Taylor) and their endless supply of daughters.
In the Perrons, we do get some charm, primarily from the talented young players if we haven't already learned that Joey King is headed for greatness, the bright light she shines through the less interesting factions of The Conjuring will solidify this notion. But aside from some naturalistic family undercurrents, most of the Perrons' time onscreen is ensconced in worrisome gasps.
It's nothing you can't find in any other horror movie on the shelves... I mean, Netflix sub-menus. Meanwhile, the far more intriguing dynamic of the professional team brought in to absolve the family of their nightmares is swept under the rug.
But this might not be a problem for all. There's a reason that the horror genre feels like an assembly line of identical cogs: it works. People want a certain thing out of their scare flick, and that certain thing is delivered in all of the big box office winners and cult frenzies. As such, to all those seeking little more than a few jump scares and some haunting imagery, The Conjuring should satisfy. After all, nothing tops a freaky doll in the chills department. But if you're the sort of horror-goer who looks for something new the sort who has seen the "based on a true story" advertisements and inventive marketing and thought, "Now this one looks different!" you might in fact be in for a surprise. The not-so-great kind.
Based on a true story, the film tells the horrifying tale of how world renowned paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren were called upon to help a family terrorized by a dark presence in a secluded farmhouse. Forced to confront a powerful demonic entity, the Warrens find themselves caught in the most terrifying case of their lives.

Tuesday, July 24, 2012 - Mirek, Jirka and Pavel - CZECH UP
Latest Sets at WilliamHiggins.com
Jirka Maly is a very cute guy who we quickly signed up for a Czech Up with Doctor Mirek Ceslar. Jirka has a big problem and has been brought to see the doctor by his friend Pavel Smidl. It appears that Jirka has a cucumber stuck in his ass. Pavel explains that is was put there as a joke. Mirek has Jirka get onto the examination chair to take a look. Jirka's top is removed and Mirek begins to examine him, pressing his fingers around his stomach, until his finds a tender area. Mirek opens Jirka's shorts and check some more. Then he completely removes the shorts to continue. Pavel holds Jirka's hand to calm him as Mirek checks the pulse and continue his investiagtion. Putting on some gloves Mirek then inserts a finger into Jirka's ass to see what he can feel. Jirka is covering his cock with a hand, which Mirek removes and discovers that the dick is hard. He wanks the cock as his other hand is working on removing something from Jirka's ass. He manages to extract the offending object, which is a dill pickle, rather thana full sized cucumber. Mirek doesn't stop with the examination though, even after solving the problem. He guides Pavel's head down on to Jirka's big,fat cock and has him suck it, as he fingers the ass again.Then he inserts a scope into Jirka's ass to check it more thoroughly. Pavels mouth is working hard on Jirka's cock. Mirek removes the scope and inserts two fingers into that hole as he kisses Jirka as well. Jirka is enjoying it immensely and Pavel kisses him as well while Mirek gets his own hard cock out of his pants and wanks himself. Pavel gets naked and feeds his cock into Jirka's mouth for sucking. Mirek sucks on Jirka's dick for a while and then moves up for his cock to be sucked as well. Jirka wanks himself as he takes turns on both Mirek's and Pavel's hard cocks. He is enjoying having so much attention. His head is pushed onto those cocks, making his take them deep in his mouth. Then things progress further with Mirek fucking his dick into Jirka's hot ass while Pavel presents his for Jirka to rim. Mirek's rock hard cock slides in and out of that hole, stretching it wide. Then a slight change of position allows Jirka to work his ass up and down on that big cock and to suck Pavel's at the same time. Jirka is so turned on by all the attention and stands, wanking himself. He is soon ready to shoot a big load and sits his ass back down on Mirek's dick as he shoots his load right up the Doctor's chest. Mirek continues to fuck that ass as Pavel shoots his own creamy cum all over Jirka's face. Jirka sucks on that sticky cock and then Mirek moves up and dumps his load over that face as well. Again Mirek sucks it clean. Mirek then takes the dill pickle and, after wiping it over Jirka's face to coat it in cum, pushes it into his mouth. He starts to chew it as Mirek smears the rest of the cum all over his face. What a lovely scene and a very good initiation for Jirka.
Jan Panik is a really well built guy, with a handsome face. He agreed to come in for a massage shortly after a very good solo shoot. He starts off by removing all his clothes and giving us a 360 degree view of his naked body. Then he climbs onto the massage table and lays down, on his stomach, with that hot bubble butt in view. The masseur arrives and oils his hands before starting his work. The hands begin to massage Jan's back and shoulders. They work all over his back, up and down the spine and then move down to Jan's thick hairy legs. More oil is applied and the masseur works over the thighs and down the calf muscles and then onto Jan's feet. As the hands go back up the legs one begins to caress Jan's cock, which seems to be very hard indeed. The cock head is swollen as a hand slips under the towel, and begins to massage Jan's ass. Then the towel is removed and that gorgeous hairy ass comes into full view. The masseur begins to work on it, squeezing the cheeks and rubbing in the hairy crack. Those cheeks are pulled apart to give a good view into the crack. Jan is moved up, onto his knees, so his ass spreads nicely, and we see that his cock is rock hard. The masseur grabs the cock and wanks it. Some lube is dripped into the ass crack and a vibrator appears, and slips into his tight hole as his cock is being wanked. It fits nicely in Jan's hole and he has his eyes closed as it is pushed in and out. His cock has softened some, but a huge string of pre-cum hanga from it. The masseur takes the cock and milks it some more, so the pre-cum string gets longer, swaying back and forth as the cock is milked. The a larger dildo is brought into play and is pushed into Jan's hole, fucking it for a while before he is allowed to turn over. The masseur takes hold so Jan's cock and wanks it again, till it is nice and hard and shoots the cum the cream running over his hand and down the cock. After smearing the cum over Jan's body the masseur leaves him to relax. Jan took it all very well and was a very good subject with that great body and hard cock.
David Mertlik is aged 25 and lives in Troubky. He works as a driving instructor and enjoys sports, fitness and football. David reclines on the sofa and does a very nice interview before starting his show. Then he looks into the camera as he feels his body. He lifts his tee shirt and we see his nipples, nice and firm, and some hair on his chest. David gets onto his knees and removes the tee shirt so we can see his chest completely and, with his arms in the air we notice that he doesn't shave his pits like many do these days. Next David opens his jeans, and with no underwear his cock comes into view. with his hairy torso he looks very good indeed and bdgins to wank on his cock. As he wanks a helping hand arrives and David lays on the sofa, naked, and waits to see what happens. The helping hand drips oil onto David and begins to massage it into his chest and then his cock and balls. The hand takes hold of David's cock and wanks it. The cock gets very hard and we get some time to savor just how good it looks before David's legs are lifted to expose his ass. As expected he has a nice hairy crack and very soon a vibrator is pushing into his tight hole. It works its way into that hole as David's cock is still being wanked. The wanking continues apace and soon David is moaning as he shoot a big squirty load for us, with the vibrator still deep in his hole. David then moves off to the shower to clean up. He is a very nice looking guy and a very good sport, who gave us a very good video,
Jan Panik is 18 years old and comes from Prague. He is a student who enjoys athletics, football and his friends. What a good looking guy Jan is, and as he removes his clothes we see that he is very well built as well. He has a very nice chest and as he opens his jeans we see his flaccid cock and his balls. Jan turns around and leans over, onto the chair, so that we get a great view of his ass, with a nice, hairy crack. Then is it off with the jeans and Jan sits on the chair and leans back, posing, so that we see him in all his glory. Next Jans turns again, and sits on the chair, back to front, so that his ass spreads nicely, including with his hands to show that hairy hole. When we have savored that hole for a while Jan stands and poses again, this time with his cock hard and poking out from his body. He is a very fine specimen indeed and ensure that we see everything he has to offer. Including more views of his ass as he lays on his back with his legs in the air. This is a great shoot from Jan which makes me look forward to his erotic video. We recently posted a massage with Jan as well, which is very good indeed.

Boulder County Sheriff's Office
Paul Aiken

After an arrest on suspicion of drunken horseback riding forced them to make a brief pit stop in Boulder, a Colorado Springs man, his horse and his pug were back on the open road Tuesday as the odd trio continued on their 600-mile quest to a wedding in Utah.
About eight hours after he was arrested on University Hill, Patrick Neal Schumacher, 45, bonded out of the Boulder County Jail on Monday night. By Tuesday, he was reunited with his horse, Dillon, and his dog, Bufford, at the Humane Society of Boulder Valley.
Schumacher said he was riding from Larkspur to his brother's Sept. 20 wedding in Bryce, Utah, when he was arrested.
"He's the only way I got to get out there," Schumacher said. "My brother said he might wait for me, but I told him if I don't make it, just go without me."
He said his driver's license was revoked several years ago. According to court records, Schumacher pleaded guilty to vehicular assault in El Paso County in 2001 and received a deferred sentence.
Schumacher said the 12-year-old horse has made similar trips before, once walking from Utah to South Dakota, and added that he brings shoeing equipment should he need it along the way.
"I got me a good horse," he said. "I can get anywhere I need to go."
Schumacher is due to return to court in Boulder on Oct. 31 to be charged in the case.
Officials from the Boulder County District Attorney's Office said Tuesday they're not sure such a "riding under the influence" case has been prosecuted here before.
Schumacher was arrested on suspicion of cruelty to animals, prohibited use of weapons and reckless endangerment, all misdemeanors, as well as riding a horse while under the influence of alcohol, a traffic infraction.
According to Colorado revised statutes, "It is unlawful for any person who is under the influence of alcohol or of any controlled substance … or of any stupefying drug to walk or be upon that portion of any highway normally used by moving motor vehicle traffic. This section applying to pedestrians shall also be applicable to riders of animals."
Spokeswoman Catherine Olguin said officials in the DA's Office cannot recall ever prosecuting a "horse riding under the influence" case and could not find any record of such prosecutions.
Schumacher said he had consumed two or three beers before police found him Monday, but he insisted that he was not drunk.
"I didn't understand why they swooped in," he said.
He said he had heard there might be a law against riding a horse drunk, but he didn't think what he did was criminal and said the arrest was a misunderstanding.
"I heard, and I meant to ask one of the policemen, but I wasn't drunk."
Police began receiving calls around 2:30 p.m. Monday from people who spotted the unusual wedding party going north on Broadway.
Witnesses said Schumacher and his horse were wandering into traffic and also reported seeing the rider repeatedly hit the horse near Broadway and Baseline Road. Police sad the man struck the horse hard enough that it reared up on its hind legs.
When police found him on University Hill near Broadway and College Avenue, Schumacher was slumped over to the right and forcing people off the sidewalks, officials said. Officers asked him to dismount and gave him a roadside sobriety test, which Schumacher failed, police said.
According to CU police, when officers asked Schumacher about striking the horse, he told them he was smacking flies off Dillon's head.
Officers reported finding the pug riding in a backpack and a small black powder pistol and beer in one of Schumacher's saddlebags.
But Schumacher said the pug always rides on his backpack — not in it — with Dillon, and that he has never mistreated either animal.
"These two get along real well," Schumacher said. "I would never hit my animals."
Officials said the prohibited weapons charge was for being in possession of a firearm while intoxicated, though Schumacher described it Tuesday as a "piece of junk." Police have held onto the weapon as evidence.
As for the long journey, CU police spokesman Ryan Huff said his office has been flooded with calls from people looking to help out the three travelers, and Schumacher said at one point they may hitch a ride if they can.
"I've run into some real nice people on the way," Schumacher said.
He also said it is not the first time one of his journeys has gotten media attention.
"We've been on TV news a few times, been in all kinds of newspapers all over the country," he said. "It's just me and this little guy and this big guy, and we go all over the place. We want to go someplace, we go."

What: CrossFit Sanitas
When: opens Jan. 1, 2013
Where: 2525 Arapahoe Ave.
More info: crossfitsanitas.com/
A s Eric and Melissa Roza, of Boulder, got more and more into CrossFit, they began to wonder why more of their friends didn't do the high-intensity blend of strength and conditioning exercises.
Perhaps because with its kettlebells and PVC pipes it's intimidating, or because it seems inconvenient to drive to a warehouse on the outskirts of town for a workout.
"CrossFit has this reputation of being this kind of garage-y kind of thing, and I like a lot of that," said Eric Roza. "But in general we're thinking about what does a busy professional need to make (CrossFit) fit in and make it not intimidating?"
So the two put their heads together and came up with a list of criteria the sport would need to attract busy parents, professionals and athletes. Their gym, CrossFit Sanitas will open on Jan. 1, just in time for New Year's resolutions and working off extra holiday pounds.
Though the new facility will have many of the familiar CrossFit components -- PVC pipes, kettlebells, rings and ropes -- the gym will feature a softer side, too. CrossFit Sanitas offers childcare, massages, locker rooms and a cold plunge pool, which the Rozas hope will make the gym more inviting to newcomers who might be intimidated by the sport's rough appearance.
"We're not the Olympic weightlifting champions, but we are the busy 40-something couple," said CrossFit Sanitas co-founder Eric Roza. "We're probably a really good representation of people who have been on a certain journey and maybe we can use that to help get other people motivated."
The pair fell in love with the workout for different reasons. Eric Roza, current CEO of DataLogix in Westminster, picked up CrossFit three years ago because of its efficient nature. As head of the company he travels constantly, so each city he stops in he tries out a new CrossFit gym, or does portions of a CrossFit workout in his hotel rooms.
He even introduced CrossFit to his workplace about a year and a half ago. Twice a week, a coach comes to the office over the lunch hour, which has helped some employees lose weight, exercise regularly for the first time and even train for marathons.
Melissa Roza, who will run the day-to-day operations of the business, finally took a class after her husband's persistence. She's a mother of four, and most recently had twins, which caused back and knee pain whenever she'd pick them up.
But after a few weeks of CrossFit, 41-year-old Melissa Roza says she felt stronger, her aches and pains diminished and she found she had more energy.
"It really spoke to me," Melissa Roza said. "I started telling all my friends about it, and they were really interested in something that could be so effective in so little time."
The idea to open a CrossFit gym started percolating earlier this year. As parents and business professionals, the Rozas wanted to find a way to make the CrossFit lifestyle easier, more accessible and less intimidating for busy Boulderites.
After searching for a space, the pair decided on the 10,000-square foot location between Folsom and 28th St., just north of Arapahoe, due to its central location and proximity to grocery stores and shops. Their hope is that the location will make working out more like an errand stop.
"If we're going to try to upend this whole paradigm and make it so it's part of everybody's day," said Eric Roza, "and make it so it just fits right in and it's not a destination kind of thing, this would be the way to do it."
During his travels and CrossFit gym stops across the country, Eric Roza met Caleb Diebolt, a former Navy diver and rugby player, who he convinced to move to Boulder from Boston to become the gym's head coach.
The Rozas hope to combine CrossFit with educational classes about nutrition, stress, sleep and basic health and wellness. They hope to partner with trail runners, triathletes, cyclists and other athletes to make CrossFit part of other sports' training regimens.
Through a more all-encompassing workout and education program, Eric Roza said he hopes athletes will get sick less, incur fewer injuries and chronic illnesses, eat healthier and feel like they're part of a social community, while improving all aspects of physical and mental health.
"We won't succeed if we don't accomplish that," he said. "These sound like big claims, but these are the things I want to go for. If we look at this as a longer journey, little pieces of this start to spill over beyond CrossFit. You start to feel like you're having a real big impact."

State adds manslaughter charge in shaken baby case
Family members of Jovanni Browne, who died Oct. 26 after allegedly being shaken repeatedly by his father, Adam Browne, greeted Browne with cries of "baby killer!" Wednesday in the New London courtroom where major crimes are heard.
The 2½-month-old baby's mother, who wore a T-shirt with Jovanni's picture and the words "RIP Angel," was angry that court officials ordered the bereaved family to be quiet or leave.
"He murdered my son, and you want us to keep quiet?" said Margaret Ann Chapman.
Prosecutor Theresa Anne Ferryman said the state Wednesday morning had added a charge of first-degree manslaughter to the case. She requested that the judge raise Browne's bond from $500,000, which was set following his initial court appearance. Judge Hillary B. Strackbein raised the bond to $1 million, citing the seriousness of the allegations. New London police initially charged Browne with first-degree assault and risk of injury to a child before Jovanni died.
Browne, 24, was watching his son and Chapman's 4-year-old twins on Oct. 25 at their Crystal Avenue apartment in New London when he allegedly shook the baby roughly after Jovanni continued to cry. He called police at 2:06 a.m. The child was not breathing and was limp when first responders arrived about 2:30 a.m. The baby was taken initially to Lawrence + Memorial Hospital before being airlifted to Yale-New Haven Hospital, where he died the next day.
Members of Browne's family who attended his court appearance and Chapman and her relatives got into a shouting match before marshals intervened.
Outside the courthouse, the Chapman supporters said they want "Justice for Jovanni" and plan to organize an event to help make the public aware of the risks of shaken baby syndrome.
"We hope that other families won't have to go through what we went through," said the child's uncle, William Chapman.
The blue ribbons that most of the family members wore carried Jovanni's name and the saying "Be Aware."
Jovanni's older siblings, a twin sister and brother, keep asking their mother, "Where's Jovanni?" according to family members.
Adam Browne had been baby-sitting the children that day while the mother worked at her job at Dunkin' Donuts and visited a friend in the hospital who was delivering a baby, according to a police report. The mother's family members said Browne had recently lost his job at the Fat Cat Grill & Bar in Groton.
The child's great-grandmother, also named Margaret Chapman, said she had baby-sat for the children the night before and was available if the father needed help.
"He could have called me," Chapman said. "I just live five minutes away."
Browne, wearing a green prison jumpsuit and flanked by marshals and correction officers, hung his head and remained silent as he stood before the judge. He is under a suicide watch. Strackbein appointed attorney Kevin C. Barrs from the public defender's office to represent him. Barrs entered a not guilty plea on Browne's behalf and asked that the case be continued to Dec. 6.
The child's family has started a Facebook page, "Justice for Jovanni."

Evleaks, the Twitter account that has been behind Windows Phone hardware leaks in the past, has now fired out numerous codenames that are reported to be hints at future handsets from Nokia. These codenames include the "Bandit," which is billed as a 6-inch 'phablet'. While this leak doesn't reveal much, it's handy to have them jotted down somewhere for future reference, should further details eventually emerge.
Nokia has moved from its original slow renewal period to releasing new hardware every other month. We've only recently witnessed the Lumia 625, Lumia 925, Lumia 928 and Lumia 1020 enter the consumer markets, but already we're seeing hints are devices on the horizon. What will be interesting is how Nokia plans to further offer variation in its product line-up. As well as a 'phablet', could we also see a tablet running Windows 8?It's a possibility.
It's obvious the future will hold more Windows Phone releases (as well as possible Asha products) and we'll expect to see some more details come to light as the year closes. Be sure to keep a watchful eye open for Bandit, Lanai, Orion, Pegasus, Rivendell, Shorty and Siruis.

The Kingdom of Bahrain is a Middle Eastern archipelago in the Persian Gulf, tucked into a pocket of the sea flanked by Saudi Arabia and Qatar. It's an oasis of liberalism – or at least Western-friendly moderation – among the Muslim countries of the region. It's popular with travelers for its authentic "Arabness" but without the strict application of Islamic law upon its non-Muslim minority. Case in point: alcohol is legal here. Although it has a heavily petroleum-based economy, its more relaxed culture has also made it a social and shopping mecca (so to speak), which has helped it develop a fairly cosmopolitan middle class not found in neighboring countries with just a rich elite and subsistence-level masses.
Bahrain is the smallest of the independent Persian Gulf states, and has often had to walk a diplomatic tightrope in relation to its larger neighbours. The country has few oil reserves, however it has established itself as a hub for refining as well as international banking, while also achieving a liberal (by Gulf standards at least) political system. Its economy depends to a small extent on Saudis interested in a little entertainment, not available in the strictly Islamic Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Despite being much closer to Qatar, the Hawar Islands are part of Bahrain after a long, drawn out much sovereignty dispute between the two nations.
Officially 220V 50Hz. Most outlets are the British standard BS-1363 type. Generally speaking, U.S., Canadian and Continental European travelers should pack adapters for these outlets if they plan to use their electrical equipment in Bahrain.
The best time to visit Bahrain is November-March, with October & April being just bearable. Be sure to take along a sweater during December-March as evenings can be cool. Bahrain's summer, which is from May-September, is very hot and humid, though occasional cool northerly winds blow to provide some relief. More frequent are the qaws, the hot, dry summer winds that can bring sandstorms.
Citizens of following countries can obtain 14-day visa at all border stations and airports. The fee is 5 dinar or $13.
Andorra, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Brunei, Canada, China(Mainland, Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR and Republic of China Taiwan), Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland (3 months), Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgystan, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Russia, San Marino, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tajikistan, Thailand, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, United Kingdom (3 months), United States, Uzbekistan, Vatican City
You can also apply in advance online for an eVisa , which costs BD 7. The benefit of this is somewhat unclear though, as those eligible for eVisas can also get visas on arrival; however, possessing an eVisa will likely allow you to get through Customs faster, as one wouldn't need to obtain the visa at the port of entry.
Bahrain is among the few Gulf states that officially accepts Israeli Passports (although you'll need a visa) and passports with evidence of visits to Israel.
Bahrain International Airport (IATA: BAH), in Muharraq just east of Manama, is the main base for Gulf Air and has excellent connections throughout the region and London. The airport has good duty-free shopping and a 'Transotel' offering beds and showers (for a fee) to those awaiting flights. Many residents of eastern Saudi Arabia choose to fly out via Bahrain, and Gulf Air offers shuttle services to Khobar and Dammam to cater to this market; inquire when booking.
The low cost carrier Air Arabia offers daily flights from the Sharjah Airport (IATA: SHJ) north of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.
Taking photographs is prohibited in the terminals
The Saudi-Bahraini Transport Company (SABTCO) , tel. +973-17252959, runs eight buses daily from the SAPTCO bus station in Dammam via Khobar in Saudi Arabia, across the King Fahd Causeway, to the bus terminal next to the Lulu Centre in central Manama.
The service uses comfortable aircon minibuses with a trailer for luggage. Tickets cost SR60/BD6 and can be purchased in advance, although they'll squeeze you in without a reservation if there is space. As crossing the Causeway involves two passport checks and two customs checks, figure on 2 hours for the trip, plus any traffic delays at busy times like Wednesday evenings. At congested times, buses may actually be slightly faster than private cars, as they can use separate lanes at immigration and customs.
Note that, as of 2011, Bahrain Saudi Transport & Tourism (BASATCO) offers what seems to be similar buses for a slightly lower fare of BD4, although four times a day only.
As of January 2011, the schedule for SABTCO is as follows:
|From Dammam
|From Khobar
|From Manama
The 26-km King Fahd Causeway connects Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Rental vehicles usually cannot be taken across, but SABTCO's BahrainLimo taxis that seat up to four can take you across for prices starting from BD30/SR300. Unofficial taxis, found hanging around bus stations at both ends, can offer slightly lower fares.
The official rates start at ($2.65) BD 1.000 plus 0.150 Fils (0.40¢) per kilometer. In practice, though, meters are always "broken", covered, missing or just ignored, and you'll need to agree on fares in advance. Beware that cabbies will often ask for ridiculous prices.
However, a new agreement have been reached between the government and taxis representatives on August 2008; and a growing majority of taxis now use their meters. Rates vary from 3 to 5 dinars for a ride within Manama.
On the whole taxis offer a good service but you do encounter some bandits. Be aware when traveling from the airport to always use the white with red roof or London style taxis. Also there is a rule if the meter is not used there is no charge; hold your ground on this and call the police, and the driver will cooperate very quickly with the correct fare for the trip.
Finding a taxi can be difficult, although major hotels and malls usually have a few waiting outside. Some privately owned company operate in the kingdom, but are twice more expensive than 'real' taxis.

Bahrain Limo is the newly established most impressive Radio Meter Taxi Company in the Kingdom of Bahrain and the sister company of the transport giant "Saudi Bahraini Transport Company" (SABTCO) which provides luxurious bus and limousine services across the King Fahad Causeway.
There are also public buses that run to many parts of the island. Bus fares are low, but understanding the system can be very confusing for visitors, due to difficulties in obtaining bus schedules and maps.
If planning on visiting several sites, consider renting a car. Prices range from 10-20 dinar per day, but allow you freedom to drive around the island.
If arriving by the bus at the Lulu centre parking, simply turn your back from the centre's entrance, walk out of the parking, and you'll find car rentals in the group of buildings across the road. A map or a GPS is strongly advised, as road signs can be scarce.
The Qala'at al-Bahrain (Bahrain Fort) is located off the northern shore and is a five to ten minute drive away from Manama city. It is restored and in good condition although it lacks furniture, signage, or exhibits. Admission is free.
Next door to the fort is a museum, completed in February 2008, which contains many artifacts ranging from the ancient Dilmun periods through the Islamic era, many of which were found at the fort and additional ruins next door. The museum is a large rectangular and white building with absolutely no signs to indicate that it is a museum. The hours are 8AM-2PM daily; admission is free.
Tree of Life. Although trees grow in Bahrain, this one is special because of its location in the middle of the desert amidst the oil wells and other infrastructure of the petroleum industry. You need a car to reach the tree, as it is far from the main roads and not on any public transportation route.
To reach the tree, take the Zallaq Highway heading east, which becomes the Al-Muaskar Highway. You will eventually see a sign for the Tree of Life indicating a right turn. (Although the sign seems to point you to turn onto a dirt road which actually goes nowhere, do not do so, instead wait until the next intersection which is several metres ahead). There are no signs as you travel down this road, but pay attention to a scrap metal yard on your right. Before you reach a hill which warns you of a steep 10% incline, take a right. As you continue straight down this road (including roundabouts), you will begin to see Tree of Life signs again. The signs will lead you down a road which will then be devoid of these signs, but you will eventually see the tree in the distance on the right (it is large and wide, not to be mistaken for other smaller trees along the way). You turn onto a dirt path at Gas Well #371. You can drive up to just outside of the tree, but make sure you stay on the vehicle-worn path, as turning off of it is likely to get your car stuck in the softer sand.
Although it seems like a chore to reach, the Tree of Life is worth the visit for the oddity of it. The tree is covered in graffiti, although this is not visible until you get up close. Try to make your arrival near sunset for a picturesque view of the tree and the surrounding desert.
[Update 2011] There is also a (new ?) much higher quality road.
Arabic is the official language, although English and Persian (Farsi) is widely spoken. Urdu, Hindi and Malayalam is also understood and spoken by Indians and Pakistanis on the island.
Bahrain has history dating back 5000 years, from the ancient Dilmun period through the Islamic era. The country offers three forts which have been meticulously restored and opened to the public, although a lack of signs and general promotion by the country's tourist industry sometimes makes finding these sites difficult.
Bahrain's biggest yearly event is the Bahrain Grand Prix F1 race, held each April at the Bahrain International Circuit . Plan well in advance, as flights sell out and hotel prices triple.
The high temperatures in Bahrain make sea activities seem extra tempting and water sports are extremely popular in Bahrain, with tourists and locals indulging in their sport of choice all year round in the warm waters of the Arabian Gulf. Sailing and scuba diving are particularly popular.
Although a desert country, Bahrain boasts an international 18-hole grass golf course, which is about 15 minutes outside the capital, Manama. The par 72 championship course features five lakes and is landscaped with hundreds of date palms and desert plains.
Enjoy riding a camel along a highway.
Purchase souvenirs and buy some authentic pottery at A'ali Village Pottery.
Haggle for goods at the local souk markets.
The currency in Bahrain is the Bahraini dinar (BD), which is divided into 1000 fils. One dinar is worth nearly three US dollars (US$2.66, to be precise, as the exchange rate is fixed), making this one of the world's strongest currencies, and this can get some getting used to: that seemingly cheap ten-dinar taxi ride is in fact almost $27 and thus an extortionate rip-off!
The dinar is a fully convertible currency, and there are currently no restrictions on its import or export. Denominations for coins are 5 fils, 10 fils, 25 fils, 50 fils and 100 fils. Denominations for banknotes are 500 fils (BD 1/2), BD 1, BD 5, BD 10 and BD 20.
The dinar is pegged to the Saudi riyal at 1:10, and riyals are accepted almost everywhere at that rate, although odds are you'll get your change in dinars and hotels may try to screw you out of a few percent. If coming in from Saudi, there's no reason to change your money, but do try to get rid of any excess dinars before you leave the country, as they're hard to exchange elsewhere, even in Saudi.
Like most Gulf countries, Bahrain is not cheap. With recent rising costs a decent dinner can cost around BD1.5, and car rental at BD 10-20/day is reasonable, but hotel prices will put a dent in your budget: a perfectly ordinary room in a "good" hotel can set you back BD 100. Do not travel to Bahrain during the annual F1 race in April if looking for reasonable prices, as hotels will quadruple their rates. A room at the Gulf Hotel during this race will cost you upwards of BD 300/night.
There are several major malls in Bahrain that offer international and luxury labels shops and botiques, supermarkets and so forth, as well as food courts, contemporary and traditional cafes, play areas and arcades, cinemas (3D & 2D) and even an in-door water park.
A visit to the local souq (sook) is a must. There you can negotiate the price on "rolexes", jewelry, and many other gifts. The souq is also home to many excellent tailors. If you're there for long enough (say a week) then you can take a favourite clothing item in and they will "clone" it precisely in any material you select from the huge range available.
Restaurants in Bahrain run the gamut for cheap stalls offering local food to fancy restaurants in fancy hotels. American fast food franchises such as Burger King and McDonalds are ubiquitous. Western (mostly American) style-foods and franchises can be found around the malls and in the city center, offering food for upper mid-range prices.
Bahrain has relatively liberal laws regarding alcohol and has long been a favorite getaway for visitors from Saudi Arabia and other nearby "dry" countries — don't be surprised to see Arabs in thobe and gutra sipping cool brewskis as they watch dancers strut their stuff in the nightclubs.
Under Bahraini law, any sign of having consumed alcohol may be taken as prima facie evidence of driving under the influence, which can lead to imprisonment and/or fines of up to BD 1,000.
Mostly public schools, but enough private schools to serve majority of overseas. Bahrain School, St Christopher's School educates to British GCSE and A-level qualifications and has a very diverse base, with students from many ethnic backgrounds, although most British expats working in Bahrain send their children there. There is also a school mostly frequented by the children of Indian expats.
Also many private universities and Bahrain University located in Sukheer next to Bahrain International Circuit.
Bahrain has a number of expatriates (they make up almost 30% of the population). The predominant industry is the financial sector where over 400 banks are licensed, although only about 30 can accept deposits from retail customers- the rest are basically investment houses. The construction industry is also finding takers in Bahrain. Large building complexes(commercial and residential) are coming up.
For an expat, life is easy. By law, a company must provide:-
At present, there is a 1% charge on salary (gosi tax) which goes to subsidize the unemployed, but a lot of employers are giving their employees an additional bonus by paying it themselves instead of deducting it from the salary.
Most executive positions would have their children's education sponsored.
Working hours differ across different industries. Government offices work from 7:30 to 2:00; banks from 7:00 to 3:00. Friday and Saturday is the official weekend for all public sector establishments as well as government schools and universities.
The crime rate in Bahrain is low and violent crime is rare. However, burglary, petty theft, and robberies do occur. Large demonstrations can occur at any time, can sometimes become violent but are typically NOT anti-Western. Avoid areas where crowds of people appear to be assembling.
Be a little more cautious with locking your hotel room at night. Most hotels have discos frequented by some unsavoury characters. Though the hotels have proper security systems including cameras installed, there are instances of tourists having their rooms burglarized.
Drink plenty of water. April through August can be very hot (up to 50 ºC) and humid. Use an umbrella to protect you from the harsh sun. It is important to stay hydrated, especially if you are outdoors during the day. Bottled water is sold practically everywhere in the city from "Cold Stores" and small restaurants at very reasonable prices. In the souk, walking vendors offer small chilled bottles but you may end up paying more than the bottle is really worth. If you are living in Bahrain for an extended period of time, you can set up an arrangement for a neighborhood Cold Store to deliver bottled water to your flat, or sign up for water delivery through several companies on the island.
Bahrain is a fairly gracious host nation but it is imperative to demonstrate respect and courtesy in reference to their particular cultural practices and religion at all times. When out in places where local Arabs can be found it is advisable to wear long trousers, or shorts, and women shouldn't wear a see-through dress. However, in beach clubs and hotels, swimsuits, bikinis and shorts are okay to wear. Do not show signs of affection to members of the opposite sex in public or risk being mistaken as one with very loose morals and you will be treated accordingly. People of the opposite sex HAVE been arrested for lip kissing in public and it is just not socially accepted. Always avoid any confrontation and never become involved in an argument, especially with a local. In general it is desirable to understand and respect the culture in which you live or enjoy your vacation.

RIM nears iPhone's sales with 6.7 million BlackBerries
After a symbolic victory over Research in Motion, Apple may have its fortunes reversed as the BlackBerry maker has almost exactly matched iPhone 3G summer sales during the fall.
After a symbolic victory over Research in Motion, Apple may have its fortunes reversed as the BlackBerry maker has almost exactly matched iPhone 3G summer sales during the fall.
Shares of Apple slipped about 4 percent Monday after investment bank Goldman Sachs removed the company from its buy list for the first time in more than two years, citing concerns over consumer spending and a belief that Macworld Expo will not see the company embark on a major new product initiative.
A new report warns that halving the iPhone's price this summer still wasn't enough to truly grow sales -- and that recent metrics may show an actual shrink in sales during the early fall.
Giving the gift of iPhone this holiday season requires that customers purchase a gift card from Apple rather than the handset itself, a process that may understate the company's December quarter shipments as a result.
Faced with the perfect storm of a bleak market and a boom in ultra-budget portables, Apple is believed by some to be readying its own take on the netbook for the first half of 2009.
Apple's share of the worldwide smartphone market is closer to 13% than the 16% reported earlier this week, but that's still good enough to push the iPhone maker past Microsoft to become the third largest smartphone OS vendor, according to Gartner.
In addition to outselling a broad and combined range of Windows Mobile handsets, Apple's iPhone 3G is being credited this week as the lone force responsible for growth of the smartphone market during the September quarter.
Microsoft will announce its entry into the smartphone arena early next year with an iPhone rival build around NVIDIA's new system-on-a-chip (SoC) for small form factor mobile devices, according to a new report.
A slowing global economy had little impact on Apple's computer business last month, as consumers willingly plunked down their cash for the company's new MacBook offerings, helping to drive Mac sales up more than 25 percent year-over-year.
Following a month-long wait, Apple on Tuesday finally began taking orders for its new 24-inch LED-backlit Cinema Display through its online store, saying shipments will begin sometime later this month.
Adobe has pledged to optimize a version of Flash 10 for smartphones using ARM processors like those of the iPhone -- but iPhone itself isn't getting that upgrade. Also, flash memory maker Spansion has implicated Apple in lawsuits against Samsung that could block the import of iPods.
With Black Friday sale information from rival PC vendors beginning to leak online, experts at Barclays Capital say they expect Apple to counter the promotions with a more aggressive than usual one-day sale, offering deep discounts on a number of Mac models.
Parallels on Tuesday announced the availability of version 4.0 of Parallels Desktop for Mac, a speedier and more feature rich version of its virtualization software that lets users to run Windows, Linux and other operating systems side-by-side with Mac OS X.
First on AI: With Apple's recent 'State of the Mac' omitting any mention of the Mac mini and reports surfacing over the current line's discontinuation, there's been some speculation that the diminutive desktop's days may (again) be numbered. That's unlikely the case, say insiders, who are sharing new details.
Apple has just concluded its fiscal fourth quarter conference call which featured a surprise appearance by company chief executive Steve Jobs, who fielded questions on low cost PCs, the future of the iPhone, and the new netbook category of portables.
Despite a widely publicized report that suggested iPhone sales in Japan were less than half of initial expectations, independent data shows that sales are right in line with expectations in a market that is often difficult for Western companies to enter.
The first shipments of Apple's next-generation 13-inch MacBooks have left China ahead of a large-scale manufacturing ramp scheduled for later this month, according to investment bank Citigroup.
Snow Leopard's across-the-board leap to 64-bits, from the kernel to all of its bundled apps, will make more memory available and boost performance. However, Apple will also need to manage its 64-bit lead and organize its developers. Here's why.
Although Apple is just coming to grips with iPhone 3G demand among the device's first batch of carriers, the next phase of new carriers should already have the stock it needs to handle its own introductions, AppleInsider has been told.
With the first phase of the iPhone 3G launch in the rear view, Apple Inc. is now shifting much of its focus towards product refreshes targeting its two other revenue drivers and is advising resellers to be prepared for product shortages in the interim.
Two weeks after it launched on July 11, the iPhone 3G is still hard to find in the US. Many Apple retail stores have no supplies at all, leaving buyers to track down the stores that do have remaining stock and wait in slow moving lines that stretched out for five hours.
Apple on Monday announced the best spring quarter for earnings and revenue in company history, and has just finished a financial conference call with analysts and members of the media. Several notes of interest are available from the call.
Apple promised that iPhone 3G and its iPhone 2.0 software would be more suited to business, but a severe shortage of the device could force companies to wait as long as two weeks before they see their orders, and is forcing many home customers to go without at the same time.
Despite widespread activation problems, Apple said Monday that it sold its one millionth iPhone 3G on Sunday, just three days after the new handset launched worldwide on Friday, July 11.
European retailers were sold out of the new iPhone 3G before stores in the US even opened on Friday, thanks in part to strong marketing from Apple's mobile partners.

Some neighbors have big problem with Kitchen Little
Mystic - Kitchen Little has been an institution here for more than three decades, each year drawing thousands of diners who have read rave reviews about its food in Gourmet, Yankee and Food Network magazines.
Last year, those patrons followed the restaurant from its previous location along busy Route 27 to its new one at the Mystic River Marina. To get there, they must drive along narrow and twisting Old North and Quarry roads, residential streets on Masons Island that are lined with homes.
The increased traffic has angered many of those residents, who say that not only is Kitchen Little causing a safety hazard but that the Town of Stonington never made Kitchen Little obtain the special-use permit required of owners of a new business that expands an operation. In addition, they have pointed out the restaurant has violated the limits of its seasonal permit by operating year-round.
The neighbors have an ally in Zoning Officer Joe Larkin, who has argued that the town erred in not requiring the special-use permit which required a public hearing as well as in a finding by the Planning and Zoning Commission that a proposed use does not endanger the public health and safety or damage the character of a neighborhood. In 2010, the commission denied a request for a liquor permit from the previous restaurant on the property, citing those reasons.
But Town Planner Keith Brynes has said he does not feel Kitchen Little has expanded the business, even though it is operating year-round and serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, something the previous restaurant on the property, the Blue Door, did not do.
Instead, Brynes said expansion refers to a physical expansion such as increasing the number of seats or square footage. Kitchen Little is limited to 56 seats, but the seasonal permit states 66 are allowed.
When neighbors complained to the Board of Selectmen last week, First Selectman Ed Haberek, who is also serving as the director of planning, said Town Attorney Thomas Londregan is reviewing their complaints. Once that is completed in a few weeks, the Planning and Zoning Commission will review the issue.
In addition, he said he would alert Police Chief J. Darren Stewart and the Board of Police Commissioners about allegations of speeding and reckless driving on the two streets.
Longtime Kitchen Little owner Flo Klewin said Friday she understands her restaurant may be attracting a little more traffic than previous restaurants on the property but that there has been a marina and restaurants there for many years.
She added she's just trying to make a living.
"I want the neighbors to be happy. I don't want to create waves. But I don't want to be put out of business because I'm successful. That's not fair," she said.
At the selectmen's meeting, Old North Road resident Michael Wall outlined the zoning history of the property culminating with Larkin's recent 22-page report, which researched the legality of the Kitchen Little operation. Recently, Klewin was cited for having an illegal handwritten sign advertising the restaurant at the intersection of Route 1 and Masons Island Road.
Like Larkin, Wall pointed to a provision in the zoning regulations which state "A new Special Use Permit shall be required if a change in ownership or business name will reasonably result in an expansion of use. Expansion of use may include, but not be limited to, any increase in number of seats, any increase in the area devoted to food processing, any expansion of kitchen facilities or equipment, or any increase in square footage of the establishment."
While neighbors also pointed to the section about new equipment which is also mentioned in Klewin's lease, she said she has only replaced a broken dishwasher and a refrigerator.
Wall, who has filed two zoning complaints about the restaurant, also told selectmen that because the two streets are as narrow as 18 to 20 feet, two cars have difficulty passing each other while going in opposite directions. He said many residents walk and jog on the roads while drivers often exceed the 25-mile-per-hour speed limit by large margins.
He said the restaurant has created thousands of new cars a year going down the two streets.
"This is a huge danger to us that needs to be addressed," he said. "A full-blown tourist icon has been dropped on the end of our residential road."
Quarry Road resident Faith Leitner told selectmen that Kitchen Little has changed the neighborhood considerably.
She said there are no lights or sidewalks along the roads and that there is a great deal of wildlife and a large number of older residents.
"I'd hate to see someone get hurt before action is taken," she said.
Wall warned selectmen the town could face liability if someone gets hurt on the road and an attorney finds the town allowed Kitchen Little to operate in violation of zoning regulations.
Klewin suggested the town lower the speed limit to 15 miles per hour. As for operating outside of her seasonal permit, Klewin said she was unclear about its limitations and that the exact dates "depend on how you interpret it." She added no town officials said anything about it to her all winter.
The restaurant's application for its 2102 seasonal permit stated it would operate between April 1 and Oct. 1.
Because she said her menu requires skilled employees, she said she did not want to close this winter and lay them off because she feared they would not come back when she reopened in the spring.
"We weren't busy during the winter. But we wanted to keep people working. We made just enough to break even," she said.
Wall, who said neighbors may have to look into legal options if the town does not take action against Kitchen Little, said he did not dislike Klewin or her restaurant.
"But a big tourist business doesn't belong in this neighborhood," he said.

Pan-Fried White Eggplant with Onion, Caper, and Herb Sauce
If you happen to find some white eggplant at the farmer's market, this Pan-Fried White Eggplant with Onion, Caper, and Herb Sauce is a tasty way to use it, and this delicious eggplant dish is low-carb, gluten-free, Whole 30, Paleo, meatless, and South Beach Diet friendly.
Pan-Fried White Eggplant with Onion, Caper, and Herb Sauce
(Makes 4 side dish servings, recipe adapted slightly from Two Dudes One Pan.)
3 small or 2 medium white eggplants (purple or Asian eggplant will also work)
salt, for drawing water out of eggplant
3 T olive oil, divided (may need a little more if you don't have a non-stick pan)
1/3 cup finely chopped red onion (or shallots)
1 tsp. minced garlic
2 T capers
2 T fresh lemon juice
1 T balsamic vinegar
2 T chopped fresh parsley
1 T chopped fresh basil (or use a bit more parsley if you don't have basil)
Heat 1 T olive oil in large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat until oil starts to shimmer. Add eggplant and cook on first side until starting to brown, about 5-6 minutes. Turn over and cook on other side until eggplant is cooked through and browned on both sides. You may have to cook the eggplant in two batches if you don't have a big enough pan.) Remove eggplant to serving dishes.
While eggplant cooks, chop onion, garlic, parsley, and basil. Put capers, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, parsley, basil, and 1 T olive oil in food processor and pulse a few times. (I used the bowl of my immersion blender. You can also skip this step if you want a chunkier sauce.)
Add last tablespoon of olive oil to pan, heat about 30 seconds, then add onion and saute 2-3 minutes. Add minced garlic and saute another minute or two. Add caper mixture and heat about a minute, then pour sauce over eggplant and serve immediately.

Location: Monteblanco 2,7km (Huelva)
Participants: 1 person
This experience offers a unique opportunity to test-drive and compare one of the greatest sports cars of recent times - the Ferrari F430 - with a genuine Formula 2.0 car.
The F430 is a legendary, wickedly fast and powerful vehicle, perfect for a demanding, high speed circuit like Monteblanco.
The Formula 2.0 car offers a very different driving experience, though equally intense. Its low seat position gives you a RACER'S perspective so you get a thrilling taste of how professional drivers view the race track.
First we meet you at track. Next you'll have the chance to get to know the circuit with a preliminary lap (as passenger) in a Hummer H2 driven by one of our professional drivers. Next it's time to step into the Ferrari F430 and Formula 2.0 and take the wheel yourself! After a quick in-car briefing with your instructor, you'll be given the go ahead to put your foot down and DRIVE. Your instructor will lead the way for your Formula laps from a high-performance pace car. One of your guests will enjoy a passenger lap in a Hummer H2, and you can share your impressions with your guests over a drink in the refreshment area. Finally, don't forget to pick up your diploma on your way home.
The F430 is one of the truly great Ferrari icons.
With a max speed of 315km/h and racing from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4 seconds, it combines jaw-dropping speed and performance with all of Ferrari's legendary mystique and allure.
Every millimeter of its design and every component of its engineering was inspired directly by Formula 1 technology, resulting in levels of sophistication previously unseen in a high performance sports car.
With its muscular, ultra-modern looks and supernatural road handling, it is undoubtedly one of the outstanding supercars of the 21st century so far.
Monteblanco is a young, up-and-coming circuit with superb facilities. It has an FIA grading of II which means that the venue been approved for all forms of racing with the exception of Formula 1. This combined with the outstanding Andalucian climate has made it an extremely popular venue for off-season testing.
The track is technical and demanding, with a number of blind corners and fast braking sections, whilst the 960 metre staight allows you plenty of opportunity to put your foot down!
Length: 2,4km
Length of main straight: 960m
Location: La Palma del Condado (Huelva). 42km from Huelva, 48km from Seville, and 100km from Faro (Portugal)
Our usual driving day schedule is as follows: 9:00, 10:00, 11:00, 12:00, 14:00, 15:00 and 16:00. There may be the possibility of further time slots on offer during the summer. Our Montmeló GP 4.3km experiences are usually at 13:00.
The experience includes access to the circuit enclosure for an unlimited number of guests.
For our regular track driving experiences (this excludes drift, highway and Montmeló GP 4.3km experiences), the driver will have access to the refreshments area, and may be accompanied by up to 5 guests free of charge. Extra guests are allowed, with a 10€ entrance fee payable per person on the day of the event (children between 3 and 12 pay 5€, and children between 0-3 years may enter free of charge).
Depending on the number of people taking part in your driving session, and your particular driving package, the event will approximately last between 1 and 2 hours. Since you will be joined at the event by a number of other emocionday clients, you may have to wait a short period until it is your turn to drive.
The participant must satisfy the following conditions before taking part in the experience:
For track driving, experiences consisting of one lap per car will not pass the finishing line. Experiences consisting of 2 laps per car will pass the finishing line once per vehicle, and so on with each successive lap.
No damage deposit payment is required, since any driving will be completed with a professional driver sat alongside as copilot, except in the case of the Formula driving, where the participant will follow an instructor driving a high-performance pace car.
It's important to bear in mind that the aim of this experience is not to race the vehicles, but to enjoy the unique characteristics of legendary sports cars in a safe driving environment.
Public liability insurance is included.
We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and flat shoes for the experience.
For safety reasons, bad weather sometimes makes it impossible to start or continue with an event. In the event of cancellation, you will be offered an alternative date for completing your experience.
In the event of mechanical failure, we reserve the right to a) offer an alternative date or b) replace the car in question with an equivalent vehicle.
For information on how to add extra laps (whether in the same car or an additional model) or on-board video recording to your driving pack, get in touch with our reservations team before the date of your experience by email or telephone. We will be delighted to assist you.

Hello loves,
Here's an overdue update… I dedicate it to Monica because without her, there would be no knitted tree penis.
I know it's been a while. But, to make up for the delay, I've got a few things to make this update worth the wait.
First, here's me! http://www.castanet.net/events/details/14508. Cool, hey?
In guerrilla knitting news, here's a picture of one little knitification that I did last night. It's just a little post cozy, but it's red and so it deserves attention. I don't know what else to say on that but that it's red.
So here's something fun. Last night at stitch n bitch, we, us ladies, were all happily stitching away on our various projects, enjoying our fancywork and bitching about all manner of interesting topics (did you know there's a place in Kentucky called Penile? Yes there is.) So as we were sitting there on the bench, on the group W bench, a lady came over and said to us "Hey guys, I really love the guerrilla knitting! Keep it up! I'm with the Community Policing Unit and we all just love it! And so do the bylaw officers! We just all get a hoot out of it… The only one we really *had* to take down was the penis one, and mostly just because we got some complaints, but I think it was because the grandpa who complained was jealous…" We were laughing and I felt justified, and I'm pretty sure she was right about the grandpa being jealous because that tree is pretty well hung. Ironically, when they took the pink penis cozy down, they left the tree's woody, so it's still pretty explicit – it just doesn't have woollen balls anymore. Beyond that, it has green lichen growing out of the tip, so that's just vile. Okaaaaay.
Big news: knitified* is going to New Zealand! I don't know much about NZ, but I'm researching. So far, I know that New Zealand has sheep and sheep have wool and wool means yarn and yarn means KNITTING! So I'm looking forward to a knitting holiday. I want to tour sheep farms and stuff. Maybe they have sheep shearing for tourists.
Also, since I'll be away from my own knit knit BOOOM! stitch n bitch for 5 whole weeks (how will I live without it?) (Oh, I know, I'll be in New Zealand), I'm going to have to crash some stitchery sessions on the other side of the planet and see if I can't find some ladies with which to create knit graffiti.
knitified* out.

But what exactly had occurred when the mural was removed from the wall? The piece was painted onto a 12 cm thick plaster wall. This wall was cut into eighteen pieces, the plaster panels were sanded down to a few millimeters and stuck onto wooden core-board. During the removal many pieces of paint got lost, especially near the cut lines. Unfortunately these small sections were not individually retouched; instead, entire areas of unaffected painting were painted over – all in all approximately 70% of it. This drastically changed the overall color impression of the mural. In addition to age-related color shifts of non-original coats of paint, a general graying has brought on a loss of luminosity and a decrease of abundance of nuances.
In addition to these invasive interventions to the original, the mural was also exposed to the influences of life in a bar for more than twentyfife years which left clearly visible marks. Even though the mural was spatially separated from the dance floor, it was in close proximity with the guests; chairs and tables were just in front of it. Since it was painted almost to the ground, much damage is to be expected especially in the lower areas. These damaged areas are presently not visible due to the newer, non-original coats of paint.

In anticipation of Tim Burton, opening May 29th, we invited the public to show us their "Burton-esque" photos. We have 97 so far. This one comes from our own Erin Sorensen:
Check out the Flickr group here.
garydeo333 submitted this image of Edward Scissorhands, with other Burton characters on the tip of his left hand. "My tribute to the films of Tim Burton," he says.
ammcnelis submitted several pics of the ultimate Tim Burton (wedding?) cake.
sally'smom1 submitted some pretty cute pics of someone small in dressed as (who else?) Sally, from Nightmare Before Christmas.
Miki has some gorgeous contributions including a photo of a sculpture of Jack Skellington carved from foam.
Some contributors looked at nature through a Burton-inspired lens – like this image of a woodpecker, camouflaged against a tree.
There's more: tattoos, high school fashions, haircuts, gardens, and…a selection of things from under the sea.
Submit your Burton-esque images here.

Cemeteries Photographed by - Allen Wheatley
I started photographing just my relatives in their cemeteries but found I needed to go back often to get newly found cousins. So I switched to getting complete cemeteries. Now I rarely go to a cemetery because of relatives therein, I just enjoy getting all the pictures and sharing with you. Please copy any for your personal records but since you do not own them, please note that they came from http://teafor2.com if you republish them.
RootsWEB.Ancestry.com of The Generations Network (trademarks of TGN.com) hosts all these pictures, and without their support I could not afford to keep this site online.
