Electrochemical noise measurements of steel corrosion in the molten NaCl-K2SO4 system
Publication: Research - peer-review › Journal article – Annual report year: 2005
Electrochemical noise measurements have been carried out on AISI347, 10CrMo910, 15Mo3, and X20CrMoV121 steels in molten NaCl-K2SO4 at 630 degrees C. Different types of current noise have been identified for pitting, intergranular and peeling corrosion. The corrosion mechanism was the so-called active corrosion (i.e., the corrosion proceeds with no passivation due to the influence of chlorine), characterized by the formation of volatile metal chlorides as a primary corrosion product. It was found possible to obtain an empirical separation of general and intergranular corrosion using kurtosis (a statistical parameter calculated from the electrochemical noise data). It was found that average kurtosis values above 6 indicated intergranular corrosion and average values below 6 indicated general corrosion. The response time for localized corrosion detection in in-plant monitoring was approximately 90 min on this basis. Approximate values of polarization resistances of AISI347 and 15Mo3 steels were determined to be 250 and 100 Omega cm(2), respectively.

This is the wall beside our "missionary" side of our house. Thanks to our friend- George, John and he picked up these 50 lb blocks and put them in this form!! Another moment when it's good to be the woman and not the man!!! The walkway will be concrete later and John may add a curve to this wall too. Our move in estimate is sometime near middle to late March.
John and I have been grouting, tiling(my favorite part!) and painting. John's been painting, not me! A couple of great friends, Ben and George, helped John do the wood floor in our house too...pictures later when it's not so dusty!
A few questions I mull over---Will the dust ever stop? Who will clean this mess up?(that's us, by the way) When am I going to purge more of my "stuff" before we move---we still have too much? How will it feel to be in the house that we have thought/mulled over/planned and worked so hard on? Who will our first missionary be to stay in our missionary home? When will we finish that side(the dry wall and paint and floors still are not done over there)?

Otherwise, you should not worry to mention the full path of the package, as long as the class name only exists in a single package that you loaded.

Over the weekend, Chris and I stopped at a small farm stand and picked up some fresh basil, zucchini and a bag of red skin potatoes. The bag is probably about 5 pounds worth, mostly very small potatoes. I am envisioning some kind of steamed potatoes with a mustardy dressing for the really small ones.
For the bigger ones, I envisioned potatoes baked with cheese so that is just what I made, borrowing heavily from this recipe at Eating Out Loud.
1 pound Red potatoes thinly sliced
1 tablespoon Olive oil
1/2 Onion thinly sliced
3 slices Bacon
1/2 cup Parmesan grated
2 sprigs Rosemary
Salt and pepper to tasteGratin Sauce
2/3 cup Colby-monterrey jack blend shredded
1 1/2 cups Milk
2 tablespoons Flour
1 tablespoon ButterInstructions
Pre-heat oven to 400°.
In small sauce pan, melt butter. Add flour and cook over medium heat for about 1 minute. Whisk in milk until thickened. Stir in cheese, allow to melt then remove from heat. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Heat olive oil in medium saute pan. Cook onions until golden-brown then remove from pan.
Add bacon slices to pan, cook until cooked through but not crispy. Remove bacon, drain and slice in to 1 inch pieces.
Layer 1/2 of potoates in a gratin or casserole dish. Sprinkle carmelized onions over potatoes than add second layer of potates. Pour gratin sauce over then top with parmesan cheese, and 1 teaspoon rosemary (finely chopped). Sprinkle bacon over top.
Insert 1 sprig of rosemary, cut in half, along edge of pan. Place dish in oven, bake for 35 minutes.

Peter Cushing isn't on the list. From the movie Daleks Invasion Earth: 2150 A.D. I'm not saying he's the best (although I'm fond of his work for Hammer), but he should at least be an option.

If you're not familiar with the Paper Playtime Challenges yet, please consider this your "official" invitation to pop on over there and check it out... They have a challenge on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of each month!! On the FIRST Monday it's a CRICUT CREATION CHALLENGE... And on the THIRD Monday it's a SAY IT WITH SENTIMENTS CHALLENGE (that's ME!!)... Each challenge will have a FUN theme, so I hope you'll check it out and JOIN US for a good time!! :)
Now... On to my inspiration for the challenge (I hope I'll get to see what you create too!!)...
Do you ever feel like you're swimming with the SHARKS??? When I first saw these wonderful new digi stamp sets from Dustin Pike (Ocean and Ocean Backgrounds), I was over-the-moon excited!! I immediately imagined sitting down to color stacks and stacks of these, cuz it sure does feel like plenty of my friends are struggling with all sorts of things right now!!
This is an A2 sized card; however, I wanted to make an easel card so that it could easily be displayed on a shelf... To create an easel card, you will need to cut a 4.25"x11" strip of base cardstock. Score at 2.75" and 5.5", then valley fold on BOTH score lines. For my front, I cut a navy base and layered the shark background on top before attaching on the bottom HALF of the card front to the SHORT fold of the base (this allows you to fold the card up and open for display purposes).
As I only have a wonderful set of Stampin' Up! Watercolor Pencils for coloring my digi stamps, that's what I use for all of my coloring (plus a blender pen)... I've found that the more coloring I do, the easier it is... It's also really relaxing (and I feel like I'm accomplishing something if I color while watching a tv show!!), so maybe all we ever needed to know we really did learn in kindergarten... Coloring is awesome!! :)
The Wiggle always makes me Giggle, so I added my fishie-fishie to a homemade Wiggle Wire... To see this little guy wiggling away without a clue of what's behind him... Well, that is how life is sometimes, right???
I picked up these super cool Gelly Roll "Glaze" pens at my LSS... I used the white glaze to color the teeth on the shark -- In real life they look extra intimidating -- all shiny and sharp... I love the texture that they add -- like heat embossing except without the powder and burned fingertips. :)
Look at this fishie... He's just smiling and swimming (I bet he might even have YOU smiling now)... He knows it doesn't matter what's creeping up behind him... Worrying about it isn't going to change it...
So he's got to "just keep swimming".... Of course, I hope the recipient of this fun card realizes that whatever challenge or obstacle is in the way....
Until next time,

Welcome to Milano 3 - a kind of yuppie mini-city built by Mr Berlusconi during his days as a construction magnate in the late 1970s and now home to 10,000 well-to-do members of the Milan commuter belt moulded in his own image.
This is the Berlusconi dream made flesh, bright and pleasant like something out of the floor-polish adverts broadcast on his private television stations. Even the street signs are adorned with the symbol of Mr Berlusconi's Channel Five.
But these days there is trouble even in this secluded paradise. Mr Berlusconi's political party, Forza Italia, is lagging in the campaign for this Sunday's general election, under pressure not only from the centre-left opposition but also from its independent erstwhile partner, the Northern League (still popular around Milan), and its current bosom ally, the reformed neoFascist National Alliance.
Mr Berlusconi himself looks like a man bracing for the worst. "Let's hope, let's really hope," he said at a meeting in central Milan on Tuesday night - a far cry from his usual effusive optimism.
Forza Italia's MP for Milano 3, a bright and energetic education specialist called Valentina Aprea, finds herself battling to keep what is now considered a marginal constituency because of the unglamorous high-rise council blocks and semi-abandoned farmhouses that lurk a few kilometres beyond the town's security gates.
Mrs Aprea is popular locally thanks to a winning personality and two years of hard work in the constituency and in various cultural and educational commissions in Rome. But that may not be enough to get her re-elected.
"The polls put me ahead, but 30 per cent of my electorate is still undecided. In these last few days I'm gunning for the moderate, Catholic vote," she said. "Italy needs a strong centrist party, and I think Silvio Berlusconi is the ideal leader, a true moderate."
Such words capture Forza Italia's big problem, which is that its voters are moderate but that its leader clearly is not, despite strenuous public relations efforts to paint him that way. In fact the party's moderate wing has been squeezed in this election campaign, partly because Mr Berlusconi has succumbed to the growing influence of the National Alliance leader, Gianfranco Fini, and partly because his most moderate senior confidant, Vittorio Dotti, was expelled recently because his girlfriend was spilling sensitive information to the judiciary.
Mrs Aprea is a case in point. Although one of the party's few bright young politicians, as a moderate she has been refused a place on Forza Italia's list for the part of the election decided by proportional representation. If she fails in her constituency she will have no chance to be "rescued" and sent back to Rome.
Partly because of Mr Berlusconi's problems with anti-corruption magistrates and the conflict of interest between his television stations and his political career, he has been slowly squeezed out of the position of political dominance he enjoyed two years ago when he first swept to power.
His Thatcherite, free-marketeering programme has been heavily diluted to meet the needs of the National Alliance, which has wooed voters with promises of plentiful state jobs and welfare benefits. The contradictions within the centre-right alliance have become an electoral liability, with Mr Berlusconi on the one hand promising to reduce the size of the state but on the other saying no jobs will actually be cut.
In the last week, Forza Italia's campaign has become more desperate as the party demonises the opposition as Communists nostalgic for the corrupt old order - a line that worked two years ago when the left was more monolithic but cuts little ice now that it has turned into a broad coalition.
Privately, there is resentment too at the strength of the National Alliance and at Mr Fini's responsibility for provoking an election at a time of weakness for Mr Berlusconi.
The party leader for the Lombardy region, Onofrio Amoluso Battista, said the best Forza Italia could hope for was an inconclusive election result followed by a cross-party pact with the left-wing PDS on constitutional and electoral reform.
If that is true, then Mr Berlusconi is in real trouble. And if he is pushed aside by Mr Fini after the election, that will effectively radicalise the centre-right even further. "Without Berlusconi, Forza Italia is finished," said a member of the party's parliamentary staff in Rome. The end of Forza Italia would leave a recently converted neo-Fascist party as the only credible force on the Italian right - a prospect even Mr Berlusconi's worst enemies would not relish.

Märtha on HENNE-Cover
HENNE has Märtha-Louise as Cover-Girl of their current magazine.
It shows ML as fairytale Princess . Henne.no See the (very small)pictures here: Eventyr-prinsessen - Henne.no : Aktuelt Queen Sonja and CP Mette-Marit have also been Cover Girls of the magazines before. I really like the cover of ML on the horse :rolleyes:. I hope there'll soon appear bigger versions of the cover! |
Could anyone direct me to the pictures of MM from HENNE?
http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...4-post180.html |
Why is she on the cover?did they have an interview with her?
The pictures is great, would work really well if this was on a cover of a bride/wedding magazine. Lovely, thanks for sharing |
But I'm not sure... |
You could find the same pictures and an interview in last week's BUNTE...
Magazine Hola of last week publishes the same photos and interview.
In this interview, she says lovely things like "To me, a royal princess is someone who is not afraid to be herself" and "even if you can only give your children some minuts of your day reading them some stories when they go to bed, you are already giving them something important". About the polemic about her school, she defends herself saying "There are worse things than believe in angels. But, believe them or not, they are here for everyone" (Scanned by me) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
Thanks for the scans, Regina!
This one is really beautiful: http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d25/reg123456/ml4.jpg Märtha looked really pretty on all the photos! |
That one is my favourite too! :flowers:

Afghanistan, April, 2010
A recent Pentagon report on the situation in Afghanistan over the past 6 months gives the impression that while things aren't necessarily getting any worse, they are far from improving. Afghan citizens, when polled, showed only limited support for their government, and a slight majority placed the blame for instability on Taliban forces. There remains a heavy reliance on international forces to provide security, training and equipment. As of March 31st, there were approximately 133,500 foreign troops on the ground in Afghanistan - 87,000 U.S. forces and 46,500 international forces. This month also saw the departure of a U.S. military presence from Afghanistan's notorious Korengal Valley, a small, isolated, patch of difficult terrain where 42 soldiers lost their lives over the past five years. NATO is calling the move a "realignment", focusing efforts on more-populated areas. Collected here are images of the country and conflict over the past month, part of an ongoing monthly series on Afghanistan. (43 photos total)

Stinking and Brighton Pt 2
Finally R received a call from Harvey Norman in town. After four weeks in for repair, his Garmin sat nav device was ready, replaced actually. We went in to collect it but first thought to have dinner in town, but where? We did not feel like Asian food, so we had quite a nice pub meal at Young and Jacksons and then went to HN to pick up the new sat nav.
By then it was getting on for dark, so we made our way to the town hall illuminations where we took some photos, which you have already seen.
I had the lamb.
R had the fish.
On Young and Jacksons rooftop is a cider bar. It is not very large by quite a nice space and with St Paul's steeple looming over you, reminding you that you ought not overindulge.
This painting called Chloe has hung on the walls of Young and Jacksons Hotel since 1909.
An unusual angle at QV to view Storey Hall at the RMIT education building. I don't like it.
These are from Boxing Day when the queues put us off seeing the Corpse Flower. The canna lilies are just gorgeous.
It was worth the effort just to see the cannas.
Some pratt has etched a happy birthday greeting in the grass with weed killer.
The lovely lily pond nearby, with not many flowers.

Happy New Year Andrew (yawn) from Singapore...off to the museums here as they have Open Houses on public holidays. I usually do all 4, starting from the Asian Civilisation to the Stamp, the National Museum and finally the Arts Museum or maybe the other way around. Looking forward to reading more about the high rises. I used to live in one but it was a public housing on the 20th floor and faces the seas. It was beauitiful and then we moved and became middle classe and trapped on private property and landlocked.
ReplyDeleteThe very lovely and lush Chloe was painted in 1875 by a Frenchman called Jules Joseph Lefebvre. Originally the lass was flatter and hipless, so people assumed Lefebvre was rooting pre-pubescent girls. He was quickly forced to give Chloe a more mature figure. Even then, our esteemed NGV was too embarrassed to display her loveliness, so thank goodness the pub bought the painting, before WW1.
I work in that part of town so Y & J is a favourite. Happy 2013 :)

Puppy: Louie
Friends: 2
Member Since: September 12, 2013
Add to FriendsLouie is a doxiepoo, which seems to be a very rare mix-breed. He is 9 months old and so adorable. He's a head turner all the time. He is very playful and loving. We got him at 7 weeks old from a lady that had the mom and dad. He has grown from 4 lbs to now 11 lbs, which is where I think he will stay. He loves going to doggy daycare and playing with all his other furry friends.

12 Days of Christmas decoration
December 1!! I love December so much. I finally got our Christmas decorations out today, much to the delight of my daughter. What I discovered though, is that I have a lot of decorations for my tree, but not nearly enough for around my house. So, I went to work and made this wall decoration. This was a fairly quick project that I did, using my cricut cutter. In hindsight, perhaps I should have used more Christmas-y colours, but the colours looked so nice together. I used a silver paper behind the red one (12 lords a-leaping) because it's impossible to match two shades of red. Well, I tried a LOT of shades and couldn't find two that looked right together.

Yellow Coreopsis Pressed Flower Necklace
Yellow Coreopsis Pressed Flower Necklace
This necklace is made by pressing yellow coreopsis petals and then sealing them in a thin plastic. The petals hang on copper metal findings. The natural irregularities in individual petals make this necklace one of a kind.
Length: ~19" top chain, 21" bottom chain
The pressing process preserves the plant materials and the sealant protects them from exposure to the elements. Slight natural fading may occur over time; store out of direct light.
Note: All pieces are one-of-a-kind and may vary slightly from those pictured.
All earrings and necklaces come with a card indicating the plant's name (pictured in last image).

I recently sent the following email to several friends- I suppose there is something good to be said about my first encounter with a snake happening near the end of July. In past years I have been plagued by them from May until October. However, ANY encounter with a snake comes under the category of "cardio workout", so I'm not happy to know that a. I saw it, and b. it's still OUT THERE! LOL I was working early this morning in a rather abandoned area of the yard. I've been piling clippings and stems and other compost items over a flowerbed that in the past has been "less than cooperative" to say the least. Anyway, it was my bright idea to compost directly over it and thus kill the grass and add to the soil at the same time. I decided that since we have a 60% chance of rain tonight, it would be a good time to turn the pile. Well, I turned it and scratched at the bare soil and started feeling rather pleased with myself over the results. I was having visions of planting wildflower seed this fall when a black form streaked past my foot. A high-pitched girly squeal came from somewhere, surely not from MY lips, and I watched a three-foot-long black racer quickly slide about six feet away from me. Then it turned and actually looked right at me! Raised its little head up and gave me the evil eye! Almost as if to say "I was napping in there!". Then it slithered off into the bushes. I didn't have the nerve to follow it or look for it again. However, I think I'll consider myself warned, and leave the compost pile alone until cold weather arrives! -
This is the way I live my life out here in the bush! I live on a rocky hill that was once a small community that included a store, school, and several residents. The store is gone. All that is left of the school is the storm cellar. Most of the current residents are descendents of the original ones. Living and gardening out here is an adventure. It's HOT, DRY, and did I mention ROCKY. That means I rejoice over anything that flourishes and I never bring home any plant that is even vaguely "delicate" or in need of extra care. I love wildflowers and anything that "self-seeds". In the 12+ years that we've lived here, I've managed to carve out a satisfying landscape that is pleasing to the eye and also attracts all kinds of critters. However, it's that "attracts all kinds of critters" that puts the adventure into gardening.
This year's encounter with the snake is certainly not my first! There was the copperhead under the trash can lid, the nest of baby snakes next to the front porch (resulting in a trip to the vet for Daryl), the snake I dug up while hoeing with one hand and balancing my crutch with the other (don't ask), and of course the lovely black snake in my pantry (technically not part of the garden, but let's not quibble).
In addition to snakes, we are also hosts to lizards, tortoises, toads, frogs, coyotes, turkeys, quails, roadrunners, opossums, raccoons, squirrels, armadillos, rabbits, flocks of "little birds", hordes of insects, and a pack of dogs belonging to one of my neighbors. There are also horses in the pasture on one side, cows on the other, and several ponds with herons and other waterfowl. I once had a "close encounter" with a heron who was flying around the side of the house just as I was walking around from the other direction! But by far, my most memorable adventure in gardening was a close encounter with a horse.
It happened a little over a year ago. I was in the raised strawberry bed, adding some asparagus roots to a section close to the pasture fence. I was intent on what I was doing and didn't realize I had an audience until I felt a "swoosh" of air and heard a snort. One of my neighbor's young foals, her mother, and three of her friends were closely watching my movements. Now I have to be honest here and admit that yes, we have been known to give the horses treats, and my husband does brush them and talk to them. So it shouldn't have come as a shock that the young horse wanted to see what was in my hand, or that her mother and friends also wanted to see! What was a shock was that they all crowded the fence, pushed her, and she did a back flip OVER the fence, onto the ground next to me! My memory is fuzzy after that because there was all this screaming and running. LOL No, the horse wasn't hurt. My husband eventually calmed me down and we managed to get her back into the pasture. I repaired the fence and I've been very careful about gardening in that bed. No more adventures over there!
I'll attach a picture from my yard today because I consider gardening, even with a few adventures thrown in, to be one of God's greatest blessings. Tending the soil helps me feel connected to life. Watching critters keeps me humble. Getting outside provides me with a little exercise. I hope you have a chance to go outside today and just enjoy yourself. Be blessed.

text: Trumpet Hero Would Have Been Very Popular in the 1940sAdam Frucci11/24/08 11:45amFiled to: GamingGuitar HeroMusicTrumpetsHome Entertainment55EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkDo you like music-based video games, but find the instruments that they incorporate are just too cool? You don't dream about being a rock star, you dream about getting beat up behind the bleachers after marching band practice. You have no use for guitars! That's where Trumpet Hero comes in. Trumpet Hero is basically just a trumpet hooked up to a computer. And it really makes sense, since a trumpet has only three buttons on it, lending itself quite nicely to being dumbed down for video games. But you can see how one could actually learn how to play the trumpet via a video game in this way. Unfortunately, it has three less buttons than a Guitar Hero controller, so while it does work hooked up to the game, I'm not quite sure how you can play with it without failing every song. Alas, the trumpeter gets screwed again. [Flickr via Make]

We loved the location and he cleanliness. It was very quiet and the room was extremely comfortable! We did like the view but wished there were more pictures online so you can get a good feel of the view you're paying for. I believe it would be helpful for further bookings.
Location is great being right off the bay, convention center next door. Views of downtown and Coronado island were stunning from our room. Parking runs between $30-$40 per night, which wasn't included in the original booking costs. On site restaurant had bad reviews; fox bar was decent.
Clean and comfortable It would appear people mostly come here too party. The first night there was a party at a the end of the hall and a large case of empty beer cans in the hall in the morning. The second night We were woken at about midnight to screaming and carrying on outside our room, literally outside our room. We asked the partiers to be quieter but gave up when we saw it was > 15 people in the hallway. They quieted down at 0300.
Loved the comfort of the hotel and the location Nothing
Location Given room with bad view. When others were available with good view.
It is on the bayfront and has restaurants and close to Gaslamp. On the first morning of our stay, the housekeeping supervisor with her clipboard came banging at our door at 8am. She didn't stop until we jolted out of a deep sleep to answer the door. When we came to the door she pretended not to speak English. The parking is $35/day. There is no fridge in the room. The duvets had stains and smelt bad.
Oh the views from the rooms on the upper floors are incredible. Rooms are average size, and much smaller than the Marriott and Hyatt which are close by. Parking $35 a day what a ripoff. My daily rate for the car rental was less. It was difficult to find the Fox Sports Bar as you had to go outside. Hotel needs to have better signage.
View from room was spectacular . Beds very comfortable Booked a view room on line requested a refrigerator got to hotel was told that I did not book that room and it would be $ 35.00 dollars more a night for view room . No refrigerator. 2 days without housekeeping had to call front desk to get room cleaned.
Nice, clean room. Nice hotel. I would go back, but hated paying $35 for parking!! Parking is WAY too expensive!!
Well kept room Terrible wi-fi and 17USD / day upgrade is utterly ridiculous
The locations was great next to the convention center and Gas Lamp. Also close to food and shops. Clean, renovated and felt luxurious.
Located with in walking distance to the Gas Lamps District, Petco Park, water front and many more areas that I like. Clean rooms and friendly staff. Every year me and the wife go on a little get away and we always stay here.
Very friendly and helpful employees everywhere! Need better nacho chips
Its was clean staff was amazing I have nothing that we didn't like
Staff was very courteous, rooms were clean and well stocked, beds were comfortable and had clean sheets. Clise to bars and restaurants. Overall very comfortable. Location is a bit far from the beach
The room was clean and well laid out. The bed was comfortable, and the windows was nice and big. The bathroom stayed humid/moist for a long while after taking a shower.
Facilities were very well kept. Room was very nice, and looked out over the Bay Area. Great location to GasLamp Quarter, restaurants, and connects to Petco Park. Great proximity to the convention center. Staff was accommodating. Concierge and valet staff were very knowledgeable on good places to eat/see in San Diego and other surrounding vicinities such as La Jolla, Coronado, etc. Also, got a little discount on zoo tickets by purchasing them at the hotel. Valet parking is a little steep. They charge $40.00/day. I agree they should charge for the service as its quicker and easier for someone to park your car and bring it to you, but $40.00/day is a little high. On the upside, you can use it as much as you want.
Loved the location, bed, look and feel of the room, and the staff. I stayed in a water facing room with a (sort of) balcony on the 20th floor. It was a tremendous view I had a fantastic time. Couldn't possibly be closer to gas lamp district The room was a bit small and unequipted for the price per night. No microwave or refrigerator unless you call and ask for one to be sent up which was a bit tedious. Overall only complaint I could have
Staff were very nice. Clean hotel. Very accommodating I got charged $42 fot valet parking. Valet parking should be free. You are already spending money in staying in that hotel why wouldn't the valet parking be included?? That's one thing I was Not happy about.
Solid hotel as always Front desk clerk who checked us in was not professional and quite curt. Train your staff for those who travel far distances who deserve a little common courteously, will you?
friendly staff, very clean rooms, beautiful view, accessible inconvenient parking fees for valet, no fridge in rooms, pricey
it's a great location. Easy access to any part of sd. Our neighbors were partying until 4 am despite complaints. Hotel did not do anything about it.
I love everything about this hotel! From the location, the rooms, the staff, the bar and restaurant, to the new friends I made.
Very clean, comfortable bed, nice staff, perfect location, and great view from the 17th floor. N/A
The room and view we're great. Very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable, I took pictures of the label to buy the same mattress for my self. The valet parking Was over priced at $41/day. Especially since there is a garage 3 blocks away that is only $15/per day but I had a broken ankle and had to use their valet parking. Most of the time had to wait over 20 min one day they misplaced my car after about 45 min had to go with the valet to find my car in the garage. To the hotel's credit they were very apologetic and comped my valet parking fee for my entire stay so they still have good customer service in my book.
Location We booked in advance and were told that the best price was around $258.00 a night,Big Lie. On the day of the trip your site said the rate was $158.00 and the next day it said $148.00. We asked to have our rate adjusted and were told that they had no responsibility as your site collected our money and paid them. Your statement about having the "BEST DEAL" was a total lie. I will never use your service again and I will warn everyone I know about your deception. We were overcharged about a $100.00 a day and stayed at the hotel for five nights YOU OWE US $500.00.
Beautiful room (upgrade) Great location Friendly and helpful staff Excellent upkeep Parking is high... better to use taxi/uber
I paid 42$ for valet because i didn't want to walk the 2 blocks away for self parking that cost 30$. It isn't the amount that bothered me the valet scratched my brand new 2016 highlander. None of the valets fessed up and I didn't notice until after i checked out and drove off.
The staff was very nice and friendly. They wanted to know where we were from and why we were there. As it turned out we told them that we were there celebrating out 44 wedding anniversary. When we got back to the room, after dinner, there was a bottle of wine and 2 lovely glasses waiting for us (compliments of the hotel). A totally nice stay. We will recommend the hotel if asked. We have already told several people what a great stay we had. The security is very good. My wife likes to use the stairs for the exercise. They were meant to be fire escapes and exit outside and require an employ to enter from outside.
The desk staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms were nice and clean. Relevant and modern decor. Rooftop bar is nice with a great view into the stadium. Would stay again for sure.
Clean, great location, nice room and a modern feel. Valet is 41 bucks... Give me a break. Parked a block away for $15
I love the location! The view was pretty good. Loved the room. I'm a huge fan of Aveda products and for them to have them there, was a huge plus! The friendly staff was great. Always greeting and always smiling. And the price was good. Great place to stay. Not a big fan of $40 valet parking. I didn't like that they didn't offer smoking rooms. Also, I didn't like that you couldn't vape up stairs at their rooftop bar. Why we left to another roof top bar that did allow vaping. That was kind of a bummer.
Proximity to downtown SD. No pool, no airport shuttle.
Very dog friendly, friendly professional staff,comfortable spacious room
The hotel was clean and modern, what I would expect from a down town hotel. There was advertised parking but it was valet and an extra 40+$. Nothing extravagant, aveda products, ample space, modern touches, restaurant and bar on site. In gaslamp quarter perfect for walking any where. Every thing was clean No parking, they have valet. It's 40+$. Views of other buildings, down town standard. Thermostat didn't bother me, but was a bit warm for my partner.
It was a beautiful, well managed and well located hotel I did not like that when I booked it said parking was an amenity. That made it seem like it was included. It would have been helpful to know that it only offered valet parking that is $41/night. That was a big shock when we arrived and a bit upsetting it was not mentioned before we booked
Everything was so nice! My room was really great, spacious and comfortable. The happy hour was fun, and the pool was so welcome after no sun on the East Coast. It was a great location for going to a convention - I could hop back and forth easily. The only negative I can think of is that my room could have used some kind of chest of drawers or a dresser to put my clothes away. That's really a small thing, huh?
Very nice rooms,very clean and staff was very nice and helpful I had a corner room with construction going on on both sides till late in the evening to first thing in the morning. Couldn't open the curtains do to construction works just outside very noisy stay.
Great location. Expensive parking. Probably slightly more enjoyable when construction is not going on all around the hotel. Complimentary beer/wine great addition. Room was clean but there were a few areas to improve: Bathroom cieling had some moldy/discolored spots and the housekeeping staff forgot to remove banners the previous guests had placed in the room "Bride to Be" ... that was a bad start. But the staff were very friendly apologetic about that. Overall great trip and the location cant be beat!
Great location, close to petco park and the gas lamp district. The complimentary wine/beer at 5pm was a nice touch, as was the strong coffee in the morning. The room was nice and the jet tub was awesome. Wish I had stayed on Sunday for the free yoga class! The bed was very creaky and even when rolling over my husband and I were waking each other up. Great hotel if you are in the party mood, but if you seek R&R, the partiers might keep you up.
The service was great! I didn't like that I booked it on kayak. I could have received a better deal by just calling the kimpton.
Gas Lamp quarter is a happening place. Lots of good restaurants and bars. Great pool deck lounge w bar at the Solamar. Friendly staff w attentive valet team. Shower didn't adjust, spray was not right. Bathroom outlets not fixed to wall properly. Pillows thin and cheap feeling.
excellent restaurant in hotel, many excellent restaurants nearby Difficult to identify the front entrance!
Staff were really friendly. Room was very nice and rooftop pool was very cool. Location to the gas lamp and ballpark is perfect. $45 overnight parking.
the room was clean, location was great, bed was comfortable, rooftop bar was great! they overbooked and tried to send me to la jolla!
I was content with everything for sure I won't hesitate to stay there next time while in San Diego
The rooms are great and I specifically liked the bathroom accessoires (like shampoo, bath rope et cetera). On weekend-days, their nightclub on top has very, very loud music. I couldn't sleep because of it. They should tell you this in advance, for this price you expect a good night's sleep.
very nice hotel, design, modern, great location in gaslamp quarter, internet free the room is a bit small
I love the hotel. Rooms were big & well appointed. There were lots of complimentary options like water, juice, Keurig coffee & tea varieties, wine after 5pm, expresso & treats in lobby, shower, bed, pillows. Room service was terrible, my steak was super well done but lots of excellent restaurants near by.
The reception staff was very helpful.Good room with great bathtub.Very nice breakfast. I had to have a credit card to check in even though i had the full roomrent in cash.They wanted to block 2000 Dollars for a two night stay costing 460 Dollars.The manager was very helpful and we sorted the problem but its still shocking that you have to be in the possession of a credit card to being able to stay at any given hotel
The Andaz is in the ideal location. By car it's a short drive to all the major San Diego attractions and you can walk to dozens of restaurants and bars. Hotel staff was excellent!
The shower The fact that we had to pay 30 USD per day for parking our car. This should be part of the room for guest with reservation. 60USD is too much for simply keeping your car in the place you are staying!
Great vibe. Beautiful Hotel. Great staff and service. Loved the rooftop pool. A little noisy. The room was on the 5th floor and there was a frequent rumbling sound coming from what sounded like above us. It made it difficult to sleep. I needed ear plugs.
Top rate friendly staff. excellent accommodations. centrally located. the location, although centrally located was very urban and close to some what appeared to be homeless shelters. I didn't have any problems and it was fine, but I think awareness of surroundings would need to be stressed.
Great decor,rooms,location and staff.
Bed was comfortable, good size room, clean, nice staff, great breakfast at restaurant, good drinks at night! Pool area was very cramped...people ended up just laying on towels on the cement...not enough umbrellas
Service, Service, Service!!! Perfect! Justin at the front desk was exceptionally helpful
Gym was ok... pool rooftop wad excellent. Location to convention center was excellent No drawers in room shower was terrible. ...Just a wand...no nozzle above
Roof top bar is a lot of fun No swimming pool
no pools
Great location walking distance to food and bars/clubs. Rooftop bar was good but overpriced drinks The beds were really small
convenience to Petco Park, Seaport Village, & the Midway carrier lack of free parking
The location is great, right in the Gaslamp Quarter. Everything is walking distance. They charge for US$30.00 for an overnight valet parking. There is no other possibility to park anywhere nearby. I think 30 dollars is a lot for it,. or they should include this in the hotel room rate so the guests will not feel that they need to pay some more extras.
Really liked the Hotel. The location was great. Service was excelent. We will stay there again.
it right by Petco Park, you can see the baseball game from our room no pool or hot tub, parking was incredibly high $32
the front desk was very accomodating to any questions or requests we had
Again the staff was excellent, from the valet guy to the maids, they all go beyond there line of duty. The room I stayed looked like one of the older ones that hasn't been updated, the beds were worn and very lumpy, the shower did not work properly.
Everything was very clean, tidy and the staff made you feel at home. The room was very spacious and comfortable. The night time hours were quite noisy due to guests in rooms close by coming and going around midnight/1am.
Early check-in, option to add microwave, fridge and a crib, friendly staff and fast service. $15 self parking per night right across the street. Small restaurant, no swimming pool or a gym.
I loved how helpful the staff was. The interior design is very modern and gives you the home feeling of comforability. I would definitely pick this hotel if I were to come to San Diego again. I was running a half marathon and had to pick up my car at 4am from valet and they took a little while to answer the phone. So that was a bit of an inconvenience.
The bed was super comfortable. I like the European duvet style without the bed cover that doesn't get washed. The whole hotel was styled in a very contempory, upbeat and cheeky sort of way. There were many thoughtful touches I appreciated. I had a quiet night of sleep in comfort.
Nice urban modern boutique hotel with great location. Park a block up for $15/night. Would definitely stay there again.
The location and design is great. The staff is nice. The rooms are comfortable. A microwave & fridge would be nice.
I liked everything. Great location right in the middle of the Gaslamp Quarter, friendly and helpful staff, downstairs bar, clean and spacious room, nice decor, free wifi, and the mobile check in via text was a cool feature. $40 valet is the only parking option offered by the hotel, and although I didn't have a problem with the service, a discount for hotel guests would be nice
Overall great experience
Space,cleanliness and kitchen, will definitely recommend. Parking valet is $41, ouch !!!!
The room was clean and comfortable. The location for functions at he Convention Center is excellent.
This hotel is in the perfect central location, closed by to all the main attractions in San Diego. Staff very professional, always helpful and room was very clean and very modern bathroom. Paying for parking. I wish parking was included in the hotel reservation. Overnight parking is $40 a day, which I feel is a lot of money.
The staff was superior-friendly, warm and went out of their way to be helpful. I did not feel secure using the exercise room. Downstairs, secluded and next to a work room or garage. Same price as Marriott Marquis
The location The room was small. Toilet inside was dirty . Old and not worth the money paid
Not too far walk to gaslamp Dirty, old, so noisy that even with earplugs I was constantly being woken up in the middle of the night by bums yelling, car stereos, and sirens... And I'm a heavy sleeper so that's saying a lot.
Excellent for the price and location!
We stayed for a baseball trip. The hotel was very close to the park and convention center. Plenty of restaurants and nightlife nearby. Breakfast was very good! The temperature on the shower kept fluctuating. We were given a parking pass and found a ticket on the car the next morning.. Still waiting to make sure that is taken care of by the hotel.
Nice clean little place, an easy safe walking distance from the San Diego Conference Center with a particularly nice breakfast spread. I've stayed here several times.
I could not have asked for a better location. We were in the heart of gaslamp! The night scene was perfection for all ages and had a wide variety of restaurants, bars, and clubs near by. but by far THE BEST PART was that when it was time to retire for the night the room was very COMFORTable. Not a negative thing to say.
We were able to walk to everything we wanted in gaslamp from here. The staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast was good an extremely convenient. $20 for parking seemed like a lot. Also breakfast was good but the coffee was aweful.
I loved it all! That that the its in the gaslamp district, inexpensive and room includes so many amenities .
Small-ish room, but free Wi-Fi, free breakfast, and only a couple blocks from the Gaslamp District. The bed was comfortable, the staff were attentive. There was a fridge in the room for leftovers. No complaints. I'd definitely stay here again.
I was not satisfied seeing as how they tried to charge my card after they said they wouldn't and also charge my mom's card when my mother was the one who already paid for the room. They charged me an extra 100$ on top of the 100$ my mother put down
Only good part is the location and the staff was friendly Facilities are sub par and room was dirty. Entire hotel had a bad musty smell. Definitely not worth the price.
Free breakfast and wi-fi with easy walking distance to convention center and sights at Gaslamp district. Front desk helpful, especially with calling cabs. Rooms were cleaned daily. Small room, but cozy.
The wifi is free and decent. Very close to the Gaslamp Quarter with lots of shops. Discount tickets to SeaWorld and the ticket last 2 days. Free breakfast. And some nights free dinner. No elevator in the 4 floor building. Cannot use the laundry until after 3 pm.
Great location - walking distance to everything - easy going & pleasant staff onsite 24hr a day - One of the windows in the 4th floor were I stayed didn't have a screen on it.
House keeping wasn't satisfying. Great customer service/front desk.
What I like about America's Best Value Inn, was the location, cleanliness of the room, and the price. Staff was also very friendly and helpful. N/A
The price was great and the service was really good. the door was a lil broken
The rooms are very clean and huge, very well equipped and maintained. There might have been fleas or bed-bugs.
near the trolley. the safe didn't work. The extractor fan in the bathroom was very noisey
I liked that it was close the freeway, and local shopping center. Perfect for a short stay. I'm glad I didnt take my Yukon. It would of been a headache. The parking lot is made for compact cars only. Anything bigger, good luck. Very tight squeeze. The water pressure sucked. Seemed loike everyone was taking a shower at the same time and made it difficult to shower with ease.
Price. Location.
Large room with internet,they had a good Mexican restaurant called RIVA'S 4 blocks away. This hotel should not have the word downtown in its name since it was very far from downtown, and had little services near by. Call your taxi ahead of time to get to the airport since the hotel had to call twice to get my taxi.
I liked that it was cheap compared to other hotels around the area. I was raised around a rough neighborhood but even some of the individuals staying there or around didn't seem like people in their right mind, one of the nights the people next to us argued all night threw beer bottles at the walls and even kicked our door a couple times until I went out there and tried to see what there problem was. Told the clerk and he said he was going to contact the law and he never did had to stay another night and the people staying in that room didn't get kicked out or told anything about there actions from the night before, you live and you learn never staying there again.
Nothing Holes in the walls and stains on the walls were mildly entertaining............ Breakfast, the fact that the pictures on the internet were not at all what the hotel was like. E.G. no pool
It was surprisingly clean and comfortable. Area is a bit sketchy, some people we're sketchy as well. Smelled like marijuana. And 18 minutes away from nearest beach.
The location and the quietness Staff was really rude

- Treewhispers, 923 Amherst, Wilmette, IL 60091
Your paper will become the property of the Treewhispers project. It will be bound together in-house with others and displayed in upcoming exhibits and installations.
Make your own paper rounds—papermaking 101
In this so-called paperless-society it seems there is more paper than ever before—but have you ever really taken the time to appreciate the touch, feel, and sound of paper? And if you haven't ever explored the world of handmade paper do check it out!
Here's a simple method for making paper rounds for the Treewhispers project at home, at school—where ever your heart desires. Come on, join in! Invite a friend and make a day of it! This method uses recycled paper and a few items you might find around the house.
- The theme is the tree. The paper you choose to recycle may have once been a tree.
- This project is ongoing so for now there are no deadlines.
- There are no size requirements.
- The paper rounds become the property of Treewhispers and will be bound with others as they arrive.
Gather up the supplies
- plastic to cover your work surface
- paper (newspaper, junk mail, yellow pages, paper bags, colored construction paper, old homework—maybe not the glossy magazines)
- water
- bucket
- blender
- round papermaking mold=embroidery hoop and synthetic window screening (*keep the screen taut between the hoops)
- vat or tub large enough to accommodate papermaking mold and your hands around the mold (otherwise here known as the embroidery hoop)
- large cookie tray to contain water when making sheets of paper
- pellon, cotton sheeting or linen towels cut to a size slightly smaller than your large cookie tray
- sponges to press paper and absorb moisture
- for drying paper: iron and aluminum foil /or heat press and blotters /or laundry line and clothes pins
Here's an easy method for making a round sheet of paper
Get ready
- Cover the table or work surface with the plastic
- Get out your tub or vat and place the cookie sheet next to it
- Place the first layer of damp cotton sheeting or linen towels on cookie sheet
- Shred or tear paper into 1″ or smaller size pieces
- Fill blender 2/3 full of water and add 1 handful of shredded paper (not too much paper or it will bog down your blender)
- Cover the top of the blender and blend in short bursts on med-hi for a few seconds until it is the consistency of oatmeal. (*If you add a little more shredded paper and blend again for a couple of seconds you will get a confetti look to your finished paper)
Get set
- Pour pulp into bucket until you have desired amount of pulp
- Fill vat or tub with water and pulp mixture (*greater proportion of pulp = thicker sheets of paper)
- Swirl the pulp and water to disperse evenly
Take your watch off
- Dip embroidery hoop (with screening taut) into back side of vat
- Pull hoop down into vat under pulp and toward your body
- When mold is parallel to bottom of vat, lift straight up out of water and gently shake sideways and front to back before all water drains and pulp settles
- Let water drain off for a minute
- Gently turn upside down onto prepared surface with cotton sheeting or linen towels
- Sponge back of embroidery hoop screen to press paper onto pellon and absorb moisture
- Slowly lift embroidery hoop by one edge—the paper should now adhere to the pellon. *It's paper!
- If ironing dry: layer damp paper between cotton sheeting or linen towels and press with iron until dry
- If air drying: hang cotton sheeting or linen towels containing damp paper on laundry line. Drying time is about three hours depending on conditions
If using heat press: place paper between blotters and press until dry.
Be creative
- When dry write your personal tree story, draw your favorite tree or trace a leaf, compose a silly tree poem. Be creative and surprise us!

Orly charged up
I'd describe it as a beautiful deep purple creme, with a smooth, super glossy finish.
Compared to some of my other Orly polishes, I found the formula to be a little thinner, and it took up to 3 coats for an opaque even colour.
Formula aside, this is a gorgeous nail polish. I thought the colour was really easy to wear, and it seems to go with just about every outfit. Definitely one to check out if you love purple shades as much as I do!
Do you have a favourite Orly polish? What colours have you been wearing recently?

This is such a beautiful colour. I only have three orly polishes, I am an essie addict lol x
ReplyDeleteOh, wow, it's so pretty! I've seen quite a few purple polish posts recently and I'm loving it!
ReplyDeleteLovely colour, reminds me a bit of a Revlon one i've got in Rock. Not tried any Orly ones yet, gonna have to check them out

What with the holidays just around the corner… uhmmm, okay, forget I just said that. You see, I got a Josh Groban Christmas CD in the mail this week and it freaked me out a little. Not because it's Groban, but because it's just the beginning of October! It turns out that all manner of such things will be hitting the shelves soon.
Not my shelves! It's too early for that people!
Instead, how about some hot blues, raw country, jazz by way of Elvis, B-movie themes, and almost-instrumental rock? It's all out there.
Buddy Guy – Live at the Checkerboard Lounge (JSP)/Smokin' Blues
A live record from way back in 1979. Just lookit' that handsome devil on the cover! Better still, be ready to be blistered by the guitar.
Dale Watson – Live at Newland.NL (Rounder/Europe)/Real Country
I saw a documentary about country music several years ago. There was a segment with Dale Watson. As he lamented the state of modern country music, he lugged his amps and other equipment out of the back of a van and onto the stage of a small club. Watson is as real as it gets.
Cyrus Chestnut – Cyrus Plays Elvis (Koch)/Jazz
I know, the very idea of this is kind of revolting. Sold!
Jack DeJohnette – Peace Time (Kindred Rhythm)/Jazz or maybe New Age
This is a followup recording to DeJohnette's last relaxation album Music in the Key of Om. Now, normally this isn't something I'd pick up, since I already have a boatload of chant/Tibetan Monk-type stuff. However, somebody swiped my copy of Ambient: Music For Airports a while back and this record looks like a decent replacement. What? Why am I not replacing the Eno disc? It's complicated and I'd rather not go into it.
G.G. Allin – Carnival of Excess [Bonus Track] (Innovative Distribution Network)/Freakish Rock
I have read enough G.G. Allin references (from BC's own Duke De Mondo) to wonder why the hell I don't know who Allin is. Better still, why haven't I done anything about it?! Bring on the reissue!!
Robert Wyatt – Comicopera (Domino)/Rock
I don't know anything at all about either Robert Wyatt or Soft Machine, except that one is related to the other. This probably isn't the right place to start for the beginner, but since when has that ever stopped me before?
Rollins Band – Do It (2.13.61)/Rock
Late 1980's era Rollins Band live material. Pulverizing. Why, I bet it's enough to knock Glenn Danzig right on his ass!
Josie Cotton – Invasion of the B-Girls (Scruffy)/Rock
Holy smokes, has it been that many years since Cotton's "Johnny Are You Queer?" Hmmm, I guess so. Anyhow, this here record is a bunch of covers of B-Movie theme songs. Just in time for Halloween. Or something. Check out the video for "Maneaters (Get Off The Road)". Fabulous.
Karla Bonoff – Karla Bonoff Live (Karla Bonoff)/Rock
OK, I'll admit it. None of my friends had any Karla Bonoff records back in the day. We were far too cool for that. Ah, but we sure did like Karla Bonff album covers! Yes, that's more than a little pathetic, and I plan to make up for it. Apparently, Bonoff has been around for years since, making all sorts of music. Let's find out.
The Nields – Sister Holler (Nields)/Rock
These two sisters can sing like nobody's business. I think of them as the Roche's slightly-less-weird cousins. This album puts a new twist on the old folk tradition of passing songs down orally: every song is based on an old song.
Chuck E. Weiss – The Other Side of Town (Select)/Rock
Supposedly the subject of the great Rickie Lee Jones tune, Chuck E.'s one of those L.A. weirdos that have always made the scene out there so interesting.
Tuatara – West of the Moon (Fast Horse)/Rock
Man oh man, I just hate it when an instrumental band brings on vocalists. Still, I have it on good authority that this record is a keeper. He had just better not be wrong.
Extra Golden – Hera Ma Nono (Thrill Jockey)/World
This record is a collaboration between two Americans (Ian Eagleson from Golden, Alex Minoff from Weird War) and two Kenyans (Opiyo Bilongo & Onyango Wuod Omari). I've never heard of any of them, but once again, the Thrill Jockey label points me in the direction of something interesting. This is a mixture of a Kenyan dance music style called Benga and something the promo copy refers to as "American boogie rock," whatever the heck that means.

My mailbox has been flooded with mailers from candidates and the one below is the latest I received from Jeannemarie:
She claims to be the only candidate that "we can trust to protect our values" including "Protecting the Second Amendment." Davis goes on to list that she is, a) a gun owner and NRA member, b) that she voted against legislation that would have eliminated the ability to carry firearms in public, c) voted to protect firearm manufacturers from being sued by local governments, and d) voted against increasing the cost of applying for a concealed carry permit. While it is true she cast some positive votes as both a member of the House of Delegates and the State Senate, there is the pesky little fact that when she ran for re-election to the State Senate in 2007, she ran a campaign solely focused on closing the non-existent "gun show loophole" and trying to paint her Democratic opponent as being too pro-gun.
And then there was this appearance with New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg in 2007:
