Antica Dimora Suites
TripAdvisor Traveler Rating:
123 ReviewsLatest TripAdvisor Reviews
Central Hotel
Nice Cosy Hotel into the old town. Nice decorated rooms with stone and wood. Good wifi. No breakfast, in winter time at least. No free parking but cheap local Parking close. Comfortable bed and really helpfull owners.
Beautiful Rthymnon Boutique Hotel
We have just stayed at the Antica Demora Suites in the Old Town of Rethymnon - We stayed in the Polyhmnia Suite with a Wrought Iron Balcony overlooking the Pool .
Everything was superb - a beautiful room, spotlessly clean with great air con,4 poster bed etc.
Excellent hot and cold buffet breakfasts with a great choice of handmade pasties/pastries etc .
The beautiful Spyridoula is wonderful and her Cappuccinos are the best.
We would return again tomorrow ! .
Hospitality and charm in Rethymno
My husband and I spent 4 nights at Antica Dimora Suites this summer. The rooms were very comfortable, and clearly a lot of effort went into restoring this beautiful historic home. The staff were warm, welcoming and very knowledgeable regarding any and all of our questions. The location is terrific, at the edge of the hustle and bustle of the Venetian harbor and an easy walk with luggage to our ferry to Santorini. Our suite had a formal ante room, a four poster bed, hot shower and creature comforts such as efficient air conditioning when needed. Try the neighborhood restaurant across the street, with a partner bar just next door to the hotel - we didn't discover this until the day before we left, but the food is great and the wine list, while only in Greek, produced my favorite glass of red wine in Greece.
Beautiful hotel
We loved this hotel, everything was perfect from the staff to the location. We stayed here for a week and we loved this city and the people. The hotel is located in the old town and only a 10 minute walk to the harbour. The building is beautiful and spotlessly clean. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel.
The Lovely Antica Dimora
What is there not to like about the place.The staff are fantastic and will help you in any way they can to make your stay enjoyable. Giannis and Spyridoula were exceptional.
The rooms are well sized with all the latest gizmo's, but fitted out with a distinctly rustic charm. Pool, sauna etc are there to use.
This place exceeded expectations and is located in the heart of the old town, so all you have to do is go downstairs, and everything is at your doorstep. Beach is only a few minutes walk away, along with all the bars, shop, cafes and restaurants.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and cannot wait to return.
Thanks to Giannis and Spyridoula for making our stay so enjoyable.

A team of officers of the Crime Branch led by ACP K P S Malhotra and consisting of Inspector Surinder Singh Sandhu, Sub-Inspector Neeraj Kumar, Sub-Inspector Vijay Samaria, Assistant Sub-Inspector Jai Parkash, Head Conbstable Resham Singh, Vijender, Constable Vinod, Harikishan, Sandeep, Praveen and Sushil under the supervision of DCP Bhisham Singh and overall supervision of Addl. CP Ashok Chand have apprehended the most wanted criminal Raminder Singh, accused in the United Kingdom for assault, sexual assault, attempt to murder, sexual offences and attempt to defeat the ends of justice on two British women in the month of July 2012, while he was in the UK.
On 22nd July 2012, a 23 yrs old lady was found in unconscious and unresponsive condition in a Pilvig Public Park in Edinburgh, Scotland. She was found grievously injured with her cloths scattered about in pools of blood. Upon hospitalization, she was also found to have sustained a badly bruised and swollen face, a fractured jaw, fractured cheekbone and one of her teeth was missing. An attempt had also been made to rape her. Investigations by the Edinburgh Police revealed that Raminder Singh, then residence of 21, Rosslyn Terrace, Edinburgh was the criminal behind this dastardly incident. In addition to the above, another young lady aged about 27 years informed the police that she was also subjected to a serious sexual attack and rape by the accused Raminder Singh.
Further investigations by the British Police revealed that immediately after the incident, Raminder Singh travelled to Glasgow Airport on Monday 23rd July 2012 and boarded a flight for New Delhi. Enquiries revealed that Raminder Singh had travelled from Glasgow to India via Dubai by Emirate Airlines. After arriving in New Delhi on Tuesday 24th July 2012, he went underground. A Red Corner Notice for his apprehension was issued on 24/07/2012 and his extradition request was also forwarded by the UK authorities to the Ministry of External Affairs, Govt. of India.
Delhi Police was also requested by the British High Commission to help trace and nab this fugitive. After putting in sustained efforts, reliable inputs were received that Raminder Singh had been consistently shifting his bases between Chandigarh, Punjab and Delhi, to evade his arrest. However, more efforts were made and on 05/04/2015, specific information was received that Raminder Singh would come from Punjab to Delhi to meet one of his acquaintances for getting a forged passport for himself on a fake identity. On this information, a trap was laid and Raminder Singh was apprehended from Alipur, Delhi. He has been arrested and being produced in Court.
On interrogation, Raminder Singh disclosed that although his ancestral village Ibrahimpur is in Kapurthala (Punjab), he was born in Chandigarh and after completing his schooling, he did his diploma in Electrical Engineering from a college in Ropar, Punjab. Subsequently, he proceeded to UK on a study visa in the year 2009 for pursuing Higher National Diploma in Hospitality at Telford College, Edinburgh. After completing his diploma, he worked in a security agency and worked as a "bouncer" in CC Bloom Club, Edinburgh. After committing the above incidents of sexual assault, assault and attempt to murder, he fled from UK and came to India. He assumed fake identities to evade arrest. He lived for some time with his relative ASI Gurwinder Singh at Punjab Police Academy (PPA), Phillaur, who is an instructor at PPA. His mother is currently serving in Chandigarh Police. For some time, he opened and ran a restaurant "Noor Mehal" in Jalandhar. He assumed the name of Jasdeep Sing Bajwa and other similar fake identities while on the run.
Interpol has been informed about his arrest.

The lines are out for this weekend's four wild card games, and the Saints are the biggest favorites.
New Orleans is an eight-point home favorite over Minnesota, as listed by multiple sports books. That's no surprise, as the Saints were 13-3 this season, the best record of any team playing in the wild card round, and outscored their opponents by a cumulative 117 points over the course of the season.
The closest line is in the other NFC wild card game, where the Eagles opened as one-point home favorites over the Seahawks, but some books have the Seahawks as one-point favorites. That game is basically a tossup according to the betting odds.
The Patriots, who are not accustomed to having to play in wild card weekend, are 5.5-point favorites over the visiting Titans. Despite Tennessee closing strong after going to quarterback Ryan Tannehill, the odds still show the Patriots as the better team.
The Texans are three-point favorites at home against the Bills, suggesting that the oddsmakers see them as approximately equal teams, with Houston getting the standard home-field advantage.
In last year's wild card round, all four home teams were favored, but none of them covered the spread and three of the four home teams lost outright.

GARDNER — After 25 years of service, Mount Wachusett Community College Senior Vice President of Access, Transition and Development Sharyn Rice is set to retire this week.
GARDNER — After 25 years of service, Mount Wachusett Community College Senior Vice President of Access, Transition and Development Sharyn Rice is set to retire this week.
"I had always wanted to teach and work at the college level," Ms. Rice said of her early career aspirations.
In 1988, after a decade of teaching in public schools, Ms. Rice joined MWCC as a diagnostic developmental specialist. Since that time, she has moved on to work in nearly every department on campus.
"I am retiring with mixed emotions. People really are wonderful here," she said. "I loved all of the jobs I had. I must have had at least 20 different titles over the years."
One benefit of having such a varied resume, she said, is the number of acquaintances, co-workers and friendships that have accompanied the experiences.
Fostering relationships, according to Ms. Rice, is one of the community college's strengths.
"There has always been a hand-in-hand relationship between the college and surrounding communities," she said. "I, as well as other members of the college, serve on a number of boards and various organizations, from the Boy Scouts to the United Way and local chambers of commerce."
Ms. Rice said she believed the commitment to community has helped shape the positive perception of the two-year school.
"The campus has always been a cultural center for the surrounding communities, with the theater and its productions, the ballfield and large events (including) Relay For Life. Community colleges, in general, are looked at in a higher light now compared to 25 years ago. They were considered the last resort then, but that is not the case anymore. People understand it is an excellent way to save money. You can go on to have a higher degree — a bachelor's, a master's — and not be in debt forever."
In honor of the commitment Ms. Rice has shown to the school and local community throughout her quarter century of service, a scholarship has been established in her name. The scholarship will be awarded for the first time next year to a student who shows a strong passion for civic engagement and community relations.
Upon retirement, Ms. Rice plans to travel and spend time with family, including her three grandchildren Nickolas, Loghan and Gabriel.

What We Can Learn from the Church Scandals
Watch Brian Holdsworth's video about how we should respond to the disappointment that is caused by the scandals and moral failures of our spiritual leaders.
J. R. R. Tolkien's Lost Prophetic Message on Abuse in the...
Nearly 55 years ago, Tolkien offered a prophetic message on having unwavering belief despite grave scandal in the clergy: a beautiful hymn on the Faith and Eucharist, a sorrowful lament on scandal and sin.
How Much Is the Pope Paid for Being the Pope?
What does the leader of one of the largest organizations on Earth and shepherd to a flock of over one billion faithful make in a year? It might surprise you to learn the salary that comes with the responsibility of being the Supreme Pontiff.
Attending My First Latin Mass
Brian Holdsworth talks about his experience of attending his first Latin Mass.
Will YOU Go To Heaven?
If we're just sitting around assuming that we are destined for reward when we're not, the best thing we can encounter is a bit of that old fashioned cynicism.
The Tyranny Of Inclusion
Does the Church need to change to be more inclusive?
Does Clericalism Explain Corruption?
At every turn of scandal, authorities, including the Pope, continue to tell us that these are symptoms of clericalism.
Does God Care How We Worship?
Brian Holdsworth discusses liturgy and whether or not God cares how we worship him.
Covington Catholic Kids In The Crosshairs
The whole affair is an astonishing revelation of how far our society has fallen from any notion of decency and good-will.
Liturgy: Your Taste Doesn't Matter.
We're avoiding the difficult yet necessary duty of conforming ourselves to what God requires of us and, instead, trying to conform our religion to our pre-existing preferences.

FIRE crews tackled a fire in the roof space of a home in a village near Taunton yesterday evening (Sunday).
Two fire engines from Taunton and one from Bridgwater, as well as an aerial platform from Bridgwater, attended the fire in White Street, North Curry, at around 6pm.
The fire was extinguished using breathing apparatus, CO2 extinguishers, a short triple extension ladder, a thermal image camera and small tools.
Western Power also attended to isolate the electricity supply.
A Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service spokesman said: "The damage was confined to the fuse board. The cause of the fire is believed to be accidental."

"My Great Grandfather, Thomas J. Doyle, operated this market for 25-30 years. The 1870 and 1880 census list him as a retail grocer. He died 25 December 1905 and there was an article on the front page of the Chester Times on 26 December 1905 "Sad Christmas at the Doyle Home." He lived at 1730 W. 2nd St. and the store must have been next door which matches his obituary. I never knew the name of the store, and now I do. He was born in Ireland (I'm still trying to locate what county). He and his wife, Winifred King Doyle, (also born in Ireland) had 8 children, one of which was my grandfather, John J. Doyle. John died 17 April 1943 and his obituary in the Chester Times on 19 April 1943 states that he was a retired butcher and conducted a grocery and meat store at the corner of 2nd & Flower Sts. for several years before retiring. At the time of his death he lived at 67 W. 8th St."

The review of Australia's classification guidelines has formally begun and today's your last day to get involved.
The Classification Board last year made a public point of noting that a review was in the works, through public statements following the ban of DayZ and more directly when the board's director, Margaret Anderson, appeared on a PAX Australia panel.
The Birth Of Moral Panic In The Age Of Video Games
PAX Australia was filled with so many great panels, but there was one panel we recommended above all others. Games and Moral Panic: Why Are We Here Again? was a panel that strove to answer questions many of us had about the Australian games industry, and why classification is such an important and enduring issue.
The review is an opportunity to modernise the classification guidelines, which is effectively the fine print that determines what games fall under what ratings and, more importantly, which games are Refused Classification.
Some of those fine-print guidelines include the long-standing rule on drugs as an incentive in video games which has caused issues for Katana Zero, DayZ, Fallout 4 and many others. The guidelines were put in place when the R18+ rating was officially introduced, and the formal review is an opportunity to bring the classification of video games more into line with current community expectations.
But the review isn't just about video games. The terms of reference will cover external classification tools, like what Netflix currently uses to have content rated in Australia, what content should be classified, and how to imrpove consistency across classification categories.
The review's main aims are:
- How best to harmonise the regulatory framework for classification across broadcast content, online content and physical product such as DVDs and boxed games.
- Whether the criteria for classifying films and computer games are still appropriate and useful and continue to reflect community standards and concerns.
- The type of content that should be required to be classified.
- Who should be responsible for classifying content and what level of government oversight is appropriate.
The terms of reference note that "regulation of sexually explicit content online" won't be covered in the review, nor will any "broader content regulation issues" outlined in the ACCC's recent inquiry into online platforms.
Here's the exact terms of reference:
The review will cover:
1. Opportunities to harmonise the classification of, or restriction of access to, content across different delivery platforms including broadcasting services (commercial free to air, national broadcasting and subscription television), online stores and services, cinema releases, and physical product (e.g. boxed video games and DVDs).
2. The design of a contemporary Australian classification framework, including:
a. What content requires classification
b. Consistency of classification categories, standards and access restrictions across media formats
c. Classification decision-making processes, including mechanisms for review, and
d. Governance arrangements, including the suitability of the current cooperative scheme.
3. Opportunities to update classification decision-making standards, including a comprehensive review to update the National Classification Code, the Films Guidelines, and the Games Guidelines.
The department has also published a discussion paper that "all computer games made available in Australia continue to be classified apart from exempt ones, using the same categories as for film," but not including the X18+ pornographic exemption in the ACT.
The paper suggests creating a separate body to review classification decisions from the current Review Board (which operates separately to the Classification Board), or moving the current body into the Classification Board itself. There's also recommendations on how the public can have their say, with all submissions to be made via a form on the Classification Board's website.
Public consultation for the review will close by 5:00pm AEDT on Wednesday, 19 February 2020, with the review to be completed and submitted to the Communications Minister in April.

Symmetry and reflection
This week I've been working on symmetry and reflection with my year 9s. As part of this we looked at creating some Rangoli style patterns that had symmetries. After discussing how to reflect shapes in mirror lines and drawing some reflections I shower them some pictures of Rangoli patterns and gave out some squares of squared paper with various mirror lines on and some coloured pencils and gave them some time to get to work.
I was interested to see some of the different approaches. Most just used the squares to create patterns in the first instance. Of these there were two basic approaches, A – complete a pattern in one quarter and reflect into the other quadrants. B – each time they coloured a square they reflected it. I would have opted for option B I think, but watching the class work it seems those who used method A made less mistakes.
There were a couple of students who didn't just colour squares, they created some triangles, trapeziums and other shapes in their patterns. They all took approach A.
I'd be interested to hear how you would approach this.
Once we had some patterns we looked at them as a class on the visualiser, discussing their approaches, what we liked about each one finding mistakes, looking at the reflective symmetries and also discussing rotational symmetry too.
Here are some of the patterns:
This student did a quadrant at a time then shaded what was left in blue when I told them time was nearly up.
This student was doing 4 squares at a time. I like the fact each quadrant is symmetrical too. (I know technically it's not a symmetrical pattern, but it would.have been had we had a minute or 2 more!)
This student did a bit at a time and reflected each bit in the diagonal line.
I liked all three of these, and they gave rise to a good discussion as they had all gone for more than 2 lines of symmetry and all had rotational symmetry too. More than half of the students had done this, and I wonder if that's because the Rangoli patterns I had shown them had also done this.
Unfortunately a lot of the others opted to take their work home and I didn't think to take photos first as there were some awesome patterns.
One topics I have never been a fan of teaching is constructions. I think that this is due to a few factors. Firstly, there is the practical nature of the lesson, you are making sure all students in the class have, essentially, a sharp tool that could be used to stab someone. I remember when I was at school a pair of compasses being used to stab a friend of mines leg and this is something I'm always wary of.
Secondly, the skill of constructing is one that I struggled to master myself. I was terrible at art, to the point where an art teacher kept me back after class in year 8 to ask why I was spoken about in the staffroom as the top of everyone else's class but was firmly at the bottom of his. I explained that I just couldn't do it, although it was something I really wished I could do. He was a lovely man and a good teacher and he offered to allow me to stay back every Monday after our lesson and have some one to one sessions. I was keen and did it, this lasted all through year 8 and although my art work never improved my homework grades did, as he now knew I was genuinely trying to get better. I have always assumed the reason I am poor at art is some unknown issue with my hand to eye coordination, and I have always blamed this same unknown reason for struggling sometimes with the technical skills involved in constructions. Since coming into teaching I have worked hard to improve at these skills, and I am certainly a lot lot better than I used to be, but I still feel I have a way to go to improve.
For these reasons I chose to go to Ed Southall's (@solvemymaths) session "Yes, but constructions" at the recent #mathsconf19. Ed had some good advice about preparation and planning, but most of that was what I would already do:
Ensure you have plenty of paper, enough equipment that is in good working order, a visualiser etc.
Plan plenty of time for students to become fluent with using a pair of compasses before moving on.
He then moved on to showing us some geometric patterns he gets students to construct while becoming familiar with using the equipment. Some of these were ones I'd not considered and he showed us good talking points to pick out and some interesting polygons that arise. The one I liked best looked like this:
This is my attempt at it, I used different coloured bic pens in order to outline some of the shapes under the visualiser.
The lesson was successful, the class can now all use a pair of compasses and we managed to have some great discussions about how we knew that the shapes we had made were regular and other facts about them.
Next week we need to move on to looking at angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors, equilateral triangles, and the such. I hope to get them constructing circumcircles of triangles, in circles of triangles and circles inscribed by squares etc.
Here are some more of my attempts at construction:
"Constructing an incircle" – I actually did this one in Ed's session!
"A circumcircle" – I drew the triangle too big and the circle goes off the page. Interesting to note the centre is outside the triangle for this one.
"A circle inscribed within a square" – this is difficult. Constructing a square is difficult and that is only half way there if that. This is the closest I have got so far and two sides are not quite tangent.
"A flower" – nice practice using a pair of compasses and this flower took some bisectors too.
If you have any ideas for cool things I can construct, and that I can get my students to construct, please let me know in the comments or on social media.
Saturday puzzle
One of the first things I saw this morning when I awoke was this post from solve my maths on facebook:
That's interesting I thought, so I thought it have a go.
The radius is given to be 2. So we have an equilateral triangle side length 2. Using my knowledge of triangle and exact trig ratios I know the height of such a triangle is root 3 and as such so is the area.
Similarly, as the diagonal of the rectangle is 2 and the short side is 1 we can work out from Pythagoras's Theorem that the longer side is root 3. And again it follows that so is the area.
Lastly we have the square, the diagonal is 2 and as such each side must be root 2, again this is evident from Pythagoras's Theorem this gives us an area of 2.
Which leaves us a nice product of the areas as 6.
I think that is correct, I've justvwoken up nd this post has been my working, so do about up if you spot an error. And I'd love to hear if youbsolved it a different way.
Last week while we were waiting for a swimming lesson to start my daughter told me that one of her teachers had got "higgledy piggledy" about oblongs. I asked what she meant and she said that she'd accidentally called one a rectangle and had to correct herself and had informed the class that at her last school she'd had to call them rectangles but at this school had to call them oblongs and sometimes got higgledy piggledy about this. I asked my daughter why they couldn't call them rectangles and she said that it was because squares can be rectangles too.
This set off a lengthy chain of thoughts in my head. Firstly, I was quite impressed by the fact a 5 year old could articulate all this about knowledge about shapes so well. Then I thought, does it really matter whether they call them oblongs or rectangles? Then I thought, wait a minute, why are we prohibiting the use of rectangle because it can also mean a square, but we are not prohibiting the use of oblong when it can also mean an ellipse? My chain of thought then jumped down a rabbit hole questioning whether we should actually be referring to regular or equilateral rectangular parallelograms and non – regular/equilateral parallelograms. Why are we allowing children to call a shape a triangle, when it is one possible type of triangle in a family of triangles, but not allowing them to call a shape a rectangle when it is only one possible rectangle in a family of rectangles. These thoughts stewed around in my head for a while and I thought I'd ask the twittersphere for their opinions on the matter.
These opinions fell into a couple of camps. The first cam thought that oblong was a nice enough word and they didn't mind others using it but preferred not to themselves. The second camp felt that it was important to distinguish between an oblong and a square so important to use oblong not rectangle and the third camp thought that actually it was better to use rectangles due to the elliptical oblongs. I questioned some of the respondents from the second two groups a little further to see why they fell into these groups. Those in the second seemed unaware that the word oblong also meant ellipse and those in the third thought it was more important to excluded ellipses than squares. Stating that it was easy enough to explain away the special case that is the square.
I've spend rather a lot of time considering this, and am now not really sure what I think on the issue. I can't see a problem with using a rectangle and explaining away the square as a special case. We call all triangles triangles and expand as and when required. No one bothers about calling a non-rectangular parallelogram a parallelogram, despite the fact that that could mean a rectangle. But again I'm not sure I'm massively strongly against the term oblong either. It could open up a good discussion about the term and how it could apply to ellipses, although this probably is a little too much for a year 1 classroom. I think I'm leaning towards rectangle as a preference though, as explaining away a special case is, for me, much more preferable than ignoring a whole class of oblongs.
If you have views on this, whichever way you lean, I'd love to hear them, either in the comments or via social media.
An interesting area puzzle
Regular readers will know that I have a tendency to collect puzzles and I like to have a go at them. This evening I had a crack at this while my daughter was playing before bed.
It looked interesting when I saw it on Facebook a while ago and so I thought I'd have a crack. If you haven't yet, do it now. I want to know if you took the same approach!
I wasn't too sure where to start, so I drew it out, labelled some stuff and came up with some equations:
I thought if I multiples two of my equations together and rearranged I could get the yellow area as the subject:
Then I needed cx:
I thought "now I need ay", then realised I had it:
This meant I could.sub back in through the equations:
So the area:
I thought 27 was a nice answer, and I'm fairly sure it's correct, however I have a feeling that I may have missed something blindingly obvious that would have gotten me there much quicker.
If you did it, I'd love to hear your approach, especially if you spotted something I missed!
Is one solution more elegant?
Earlier this week I wrote this post on mathematical elegance and whether or not it should have marks awarded to it in A level examinations, then bizarrely the next day in my GCSE class I came across a question that could be answered many ways. In fact it was answered in a few ways by my own students.
Here's the question – it's from the November Edexcel Non-calculator higher paper:
I like this question, and am going to look at the two ways students attempted it and a third way I think I would have gone for. Before you read in I'd love it if you have a think about how you would go about it and let me know.
Method 1
Before I go into this method I should state that the students weren't working through the paper, they were completing some booklets I'd made based on questions taken from towards the end of recent exam papers q's I wanted them to get some practice working on the harder stuff but still be coming at the quite cold (ie not "here's a booklet on sine and cosine rule, here's one on vectors," etc). As these books were mixed the students had calculators and this student hadn't noticed it was marked up as a non calculator question.
He handed me his worked and asked to check he'd got it right. I looked, first he'd used the equation to find points A (3,0) and D (0,6) by subbing 0 in for y and x respectively. He then used right angled triangle trigonometry to work out the angle OAD, then worked out OAP from 90 – OAD and used trig again to work out OP to be 1.5, thus getting the correct answer of 7.5. I didn't think about the question too much and I didn't notice that it was marked as non-calculator either. I just followed his working, saw that it was all correct and all followed itself fine and told him he'd got the correct answer.
Method 2
Literally 2 minutes later another student handed me her working for the same question and asked if it was right, I looked and it was full of algebra. As I looked I had the trigonometry based solution in my head so starter to say "No" but then saw she had the right answer so said "Hang on, maybe".
I read the question fully then looked at her working. She had recognised D as the y intercept of the equation so written (0,6) for that point then had found A by subbing y=0 in to get (3,0). Next she had used the fact that the product of two perpendicular gradients is -1 to work put the gradient of the line through P and A is 1/2.
She then used y = x/2 + c and point A (3,0) to calculate c to be -1/2, which she recognised as the Y intercept, hence finding 5he point P (0,-1.5) it then followed that the answer was 7.5.
A lovely neat solution I thought, and it got me thinking as to which way was more elegant, and if marks for style would be awarded differently. I also thought about which way I would do it.
Method 3
I'm fairly sure that if I was looking at this for the first time I would have initially thought "Trigonometry", then realised that I can essential bypass the trigonometry bit using similar triangles. As the axes are perpendicular and PAD is a right angle we can deduce that ODA = OAP and OPA = OAD. This gives us two similar triangles.
Using the equation as in both methods above we get the lengths OD = 6 and OA = 3. The length OD in triangle OAD corresponds to the OA in OAP, and OD on OAD corresponds to OP, this means that OP must be half of OA (as OA is half of OD) and is as such 1.5. Thus the length PD is 7.5.
Method 4
This question had me intrigued, so i considered other avenues and came up with Pythagoras's Theorem.
Obviously AD^2 = 6^2 + 3^2 = 45 (from the top triangle). Then AP^2 = 3^2 + x^2 (where x = OP). And PD = 6 + x so we get:
(6 + x)^2 = 45 + 9 + x^2
x^2 + 12x + 36 = 54 + x^2
12x = 18
x = 1.5
Leading to a final answer of 7.5 again.
Another nice solution. I don't know which I like best, to be honest. When I looked at the rest of the class's work it appears that Pythagoras's Theorem was the method that was most popular, followed by trigonometry then similar triangles. No other student had used the perpendicular gradients method.
I thought it might be interesting to check the mark scheme:
All three methods were there (obviously the trig method was missed due to it being a non calculator paper). I wondered if the ordering of the mark scheme suggested the preference of the exam board, and which solution they find more elegant. I love all the solutions, and although I think similar triangles is the way I'd go at it if OD not seen it, I think I prefer the perpendicular gradients method.
Did you consider this? Which way would you do the question? Which way would your students? Do you tuink one is more elegant? Do you think that matters? I'd love to know, and you can tell me in the comments or via social media!

Exact Trigonometric Ratios
This morning I read this interesting little post from Andy Lyons (@mrlyonsmaths) which looked at teaching the exact Trigonometric Ratios for certain given angles (namely 0, 30, 60, 90 and 180 degrees). The post gave a nice little info graphic linked to the unit circle to show what was going on and then focused on methods yo remember the ratios.
While reading it I thought about how I introduce these exact Trigonometric Ratios. I first like to know that my students have a thorough and in depth understanding of right angled triangles and the trigonometry involved with them (including Pythagoras's Theorem). I feel this is imperative to learning mathematics, the Triangle is an extremely important shape in mathematics and to fully understand triangles you must first fully understand the right angled triangle. The rest follows from that.
Once these are understood then you can move on to the trigonometric graphs, showing how these can be generated from right angled triangles within the unit circle, as shown in the info graphic on Andy's post. Once the graphs are understood then the coordinates f the x and y intercepts and the turning points give us nice exact values for angles of 0, 90 and 180 degrees. This leaves us with 30, 60 and 45 to worry about.
At this point I introduced 2 special right angled triangles. First up is the right angled isosceles triangle with unit lengths of the short sides. This obviously gives us a right angled triangle that has two 45 degree angles (as the angle sum of a triangle is 180) and a hypotenuse of rt2 (via Pythagoras's Theorem).
Using our definitions of trigonometric ratios (ie sin x =opp/hyp, cos x = adj/hyp and tan x = opp/adj) we can clearly see that tan 45 = 1 and that sin 45 = cos 45 = 1/rt2. This aids the understanding more than just giving the values and allows students a method of working these values out easily if stuck.
The second triangle is an equilateral triangle of side length 2 cut in half. This gives us a right angled triangle with hypotenuse 2, short side lengths 1 and rt3 (again obtained through Pythagoras's Theorem) and angles 30, 60 and 90.
Again we can use our definitions of trigonometric ratios to conclude that sin 30 = cos 60 = 1/2, sin 60 = cos 30 = rt3/2, tan 30 = 1/rt3 and tan 60 = rt3.
This is again good for deeper understanding and for seeing why sin x = cos 90 – x, and cos x = sin 90 -x. This can lead to a nice discussion around complementary angles and that the word cosine means "sine of the complementary angle". This triangle is also a good demonstration that tan x = cot 90 – x, when you come to higher level trig.

MyMediTravel has teamed up with Doctors, Surgeons, and Clinics to offer you a fabulous selection of Plastic and Cosmetic surgery procedures. Many of our customers shared the same opinion that Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Surgery were actually the same. So what is the difference? While both plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery aim to improve a patient's body, there are differences:
Plastic Surgery is reconstructive surgery aimed at reconstructing the burnt, cut or damaged part of the body. Functional abnormalities due to accidents, burns, injuries, cancers, fractures, tumors, medical impairments, congenital defects including cleft palate, cleft lip, spina bifida, etc., fractured body parts are also treated under plastic surgery. The most common reconstructive procedure is the redevelopment of removed breasts in cancer patients, hand surgery and the removal of tumors.
Cosmetic surgery or aesthetic surgery is involved in enhancing your physical beauty. It is not for the treatment of any disease or ailment. Your physical appearance is changed according to your desire by performing a surgery. Facial features are altered by reshaping of the nose, chin implants, lip implants, brow lifting, eyelid lifting, and face lifting. Butt implants, breast implants, breast lift. and neck contouring is also prevalent. The likes of liposuction and Tummy Tucks also fall under this category.
The procedures vary according to the purpose for which surgery is being performed. Following are some of the procedures used in plastic surgery:
This also depends upon the type of surgery being performed. Complex surgeries require a long stay in the hospital. For example, if someone is going through reconstructive surgery for burns, the duration of stay in the hospital depends upon the percentage of burnt area. It is referred to as total body surface area burnt (TBSA%). In cases of severe burns, the stay is longer. For breast tumor removal two methods are used. In a lumpectomy, only the tumor along with some surrounding tissue is removed and the patient is discharged the same day. While in the case of mastectomy, the whole breast tissue is removed leaving the chest flat. It requires an overnight stay at the hospital. 2 days are needed if the breasts are reconstructed after the removal of the tumor. Similarly, different cosmetic surgeries require a different stay at hospital time. Butt lift surgery demands variable time which depends on your pain tolerance and healing speed. But in most cases, a minimum of 10-14 days post-op stay in Koh Samui is required for the removal of stitches and for follow up checks, etc.
This too depends upon the type of surgery performed. It is advised to give yourself plenty of time for recovery. This will make you happy if you recover in less than the estimated time. In the case of breast transplant, you can return to work after 5-7 days. In three months, the swelling subsides and the breasts get proper size and shape. Butt lift surgery demands four months for complete recovery. Liposuction of different body parts needs different recovery time. Vaginal rejuvenation requires 3 to 6 weeks for recovery in which you need to abstain from sexual intercourse. Rhinoplasty shows early setting within one month. However, complete results are seen after 1 year. Facelift and eyelid surgery requires 2 to 3 week recovery time.
Plastic surgeries are not always successful. Physical conditions of a patient are considered before undergoing surgery, and those with the least health risks are allowed to go through the operation. The success rate is higher if the subject is fit, both physically and mentally. Although the success rate is high, surgery can still go wrong. In the case of plastic surgery gone wrong, your body might become de-shaped, but surgeons are well equipped and well experienced enough to correct this as quickly as possible, which is why you must not fly home immediately after surgery.
Plastic surgery is a wide field, with many operations coming under this category and aftercare for every surgery is different. Following are some tips for aftercare:
In the case of reconstructive surgery, breast prostheses may be considered an alternative to breast implants. Prostheses are an artificial body part. Artificial breasts are worn inside a suitable bra giving the appearance of natural breasts. It is useful for those who do not want to go for reconstructive surgery.
The visible difference is seen before and after going through plastic surgery. In reconstructive surgeries, your body parts are reconstructed such as breasts. While in cosmetic surgery your physical appearance is altered.

Koh Samui is the second largest island in the Gulf of Thailand. Referred to as Samui, it was once a "backpacker's paradise". It has a bounty of natural wonders as well as man-made attractions such as the mummified monks and the glorious Buddha temples.
The idyllic atmosphere of Koh Samui makes it a perfect destination for both physical and mental wellbeing. It has become a preferred destination for medical tourism in the last few years. Visitors love the location and combine their holidays with medical and spa treatments.
The island has several sophisticated and state-of-art international hospitals such as the Bangkok Hospital, Samui, Bandon International Hospital, Samui International Hospital and Thai International Hospital, Samui. These hospitals offer affordable and timely medical services to tourists who mainly come to undergo Cosmetic surgeries, Dental Aesthetic procedures, and Sex Reassignment surgeries. Such procedures when carried out in Koh Samui cost 20% to 25% less than the cost of the same treatments in their home countries.
These hospitals are improving the range of their medical services further, to tap the potential for growth within medical tourism. They are now offering other procedures such as cardiac surgery, orthopedic surgery, and ophthalmic surgery. They also have highly-qualified and English-speaking doctors available to handle and communicate with international patients.
Koh Samui is home to many amazing beaches, locations, temples, and markets and some of the major and popular attractions of the island are:
Koh Samui's other attractions include Hin Ta and Hin Yai, Koh Phangan island, Fisherman's Village Bophut, Mummy Monk at Wat Khunaram and the Secret Buddha Garden. Full Moon Party is an all-night beach party held on the Koh Phangan island on full moon day.
Koh Samui has a tropical climate and it experiences hot and humid weather all year around. Humidity ranges from around 70 to 85 percent, and the temperature on average is about 28 degree Celsius. It has three seasons, hot, dry and rainy.
Koh Samui's airport is a private airport built by Bangkok Airways. It is still the main operator of flights to Samui. Flights to and from Bangkok operate almost every hour. It operates domestic flights to Phuket, Pattaya and Chiang Mai, and international flights to Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, and Hong Kong every day. Thai Airways to flies between Bangkok and Ko Samui.
Besides Bangkok and Thai Airways, Berjaya Air & Firefly of Malaysia and Silk Air of Singapore also fly to Samui Airport. Air Asia offers a special 'Island Transfer' which comprises a flight from Bangkok to Surat Thani or Nakhon Si Thammarat, road travel to the port and a ferry ride to Koh Samui.
Combined bus and ferry service from Surat Thani rail station or Surat Thani Airport are other options to reach Samui.
Moving around Koh Samui is easy as it is a small island and there are many transport options within Samui. They are songthaews, motorbikes, taxis, and cars and there are no tuk-tuks or buses.
Visa Exemption or Visa Waiver Entry – Under a bilateral agreement, Thailand exempts nationals from 55 countries including the UK, USA, and many European countries from obtaining a tourist visa. The only condition is that tourists must have a passport that is valid for at least six months. They can get an arrival stamp on their passports, and stay in the country for a period of 30 days. They need not pay any visa fees, as it is not a visa on arrival rather just an entry stamp.
Visa on Arrival – Nationals from 24 countries like China and India with a valid Passport not expiring before six months, can get a visa on arrival at the airport. The visa permits them a stay of 15 days. There are designated immigration counters at the airport for issuing the visa.

摘要: 本文对于近似球对称的系统将汤、费模型推广以包括自旋轨道耦合能和作为动量和位置的函数的位能这两个因素在内。在原子核的情况下,推广的汤、费模型可以作为将布卢克勒关于核物质的理论推广到有限大原子核的一个近似的方法。本文对费米积分方程也作了相应的推广,根据推广后的费米积分方程所解出的质子的密度分布和由高能电子与原子核的散射实验所得的结果相符合。
Abstract: The Thomas-Fermi model is generalized for an approximately spherically symmetric system, to include the spin orbit coupling energy G(r)L.S and the momentum-dependent potential energy V(r, p2)=V0(r) + pV2(r)p + p2V4(r)p2 +……. The latter form fol-lows in the nuclear case as a result of the combination of the Thomas-Fermi approximation and the Brueckner's theory of infinite nucleus. The generalized Thomas-Fermi model may be considered in the nuclear case as an approximate generalization of Brueckner's theory to finite nucleus. The Hamiltonians H+ and H- of the j = l + 1/2 and the j=l-1/2 particles respectively are sufficiently approximately given by where pr and p(?) denote respectively the radial and the perpendicular components of momentum P. In the ground state, the particles occupy the whole volume H±≤ λof the μ-phase space, where A denotes the largest energy of the particles. As a first approximation, sufficient for some problems in the nuclear case, letthe bar denoting the average of momentumover all particles in the vincinity of r. The corresponding density-potential relation iswhere p(r) denotes the particle density of the+ 1), R1 and R2 are positive roots of λ - A(r) = 0 and a=0 respectively. For second and higher approximations of V(r, p2), the corresponding density-potential relations are obtained as a sum of terms of decreasing magnitude, the first term being just the -expression (3). The generalized form of the total energy as a function of Vi(r) (i=0, 2, 4......) and G(r) may be similarly obtained. By applying the variational method, thebinding energy, the functions G(r), V(r, p2) and p±r) may be obtained. The detailedsteps of determining the level density on the basis of the generalized Thomas-Fermimodel are given.The generalized form including G(r)L.S and V(r, p2) given by equation (2), ofthe Fermi equation[2] applied as an integral equation to the case of nucleus by severalauthors[3-7], is given by the two coupled integral equations,where N±ldenotes the number of particles supplied by the shell model, of orbital angular momentum l and j=l±/2, N±L2) representing number of particles with j=l?/2 and orbital angular momentum≥L, are known functions of G(r) and (λ- V1(r)) (the function V2(r) of equation (2) being determined from (± - V1(r)) and the "reduced mass" in Brueckner's theory of infinite nucleus). Equations (4) with the normalization conditionswhere n+,n- are found by the shell model, determine G(r) and (λ - μ(r)) except for one range parameter which in the nuclear case, may be determined by the energy difference 2p3/2-Is of the μ-mesonic X-ray or more simply by the relation,with r0=(1.15±.03) X 10-13 cm or=(1.18 ±.03) X 10-13 cm for proton distributions near the trapezoidal type or near the Fermi type respectively.In order to estimate the accuracy of the method, equations (4), (5), (6) are solved by neglecting the spin orbit coupling energy and the momentum dependence of potential energy. The results so obtained should not change appreciably when these factors are taken into account. The allowable variation of the central density is similar to that of Hahn from the experiment of high-energy election scattering. At the present stage two and only two parameters e.g. the radial parameter e and the surface thickness t defined by Hahn , can be determined for density distributions with nearly flat central parts. The errors for the proton system of Au197 due to the uncertainties of the data and the statistical procedures used, are estimated to be cm for c and cm for t. The effect of taking into account the momentum dependence of potential energy is to increase the surface thickness t from 1.6 X 10-13 cm to 2.1 X 10-13 cm while the radial parameter c remains unchanged ( 6.5 X 10-13 cm). The latter values of t and also c are in agreement with those of Hahn to within the estimated errors. The influence on the values of c and t due to the spin orbit coupling eneigy may probably be very small, and underlying reasons are given.

Fucked, standing and on the ground the bitches rejoice in this very charming gift from these fiery sailors who empty their nuts during this wild group sex. Then , this pig turns around to suck and lick the tail of the gus in a masterful treat. So he goes back in all directions to offer him cock blows in his hairy fur before impaling him hard and deep for his greatest pleasure.
A giant whore is currently having a sex session with a large, handsome black man. He has no idea of the effect what he has consumed and dreams about a blackette whore he's always wanted to fuck. She gets fucked by the afro who kicks him in the pussy with his big dick. During this annual vaginal penetration, the male enjoys it to touch her tits after, he turns her over on all fours for an intense doggy style that will make the guy ejaculate and gush at the end of this fucking session. This slut kneels down and arches her buns completely like a slut ; the guy slips his pine into this hot concubine's pussy and takes pleasure in jumping her all the way for long seconds to finally enjoy and gush into this slut's mouth. Except that when she starts insulting the boy, he gets respect by giving him a nice fuck and anal penetration. The boy introduces her to his girlfriend, whom she does not dither to pump completely like a damn pig. Then she climbs on the boy, impales herself on the stake and unleashes herself completely like a big glamorous bitch in need of love before turning around from behind to stuff her like a giant horse. Once at the place in question, the male gets his sex pumped while he films the scene, he gets hard and erects himself entirely like a bull but takes the same opportunity to touch this slutty lady to get her wet.
This fleshy blonde and this hot brunette are both mother bitches who are now making a porn video. Then a well-oiled cock sucking, the boy lubricates the girl's asshole before fucking her very deep. This dirty whore climbs the guy's dick and doesn't dither to sensually shake her ass to get off until the guy finally ejaculates and spills all his shit on this whore. These 2 whores love this and on the first date you take a smart happiness to make this guy stiff by playing love games before his eyes. With her piercings on the mussel, on the navel and tits, this blondie is even more exciting than ever, so she gets filed on this leopard colored pouffe in the living room. Afterwards, the male skewers her bluntly and in all postures including the spoon she seems to like before sodomizing her in doggystyle. Since this is an apprenticeship for bitches, then it is clear that we are dealing with naughty girls.

The gloom crawler is a solitary creature resembling a giant squid with ebony skin and dozens of writhing tentacles. It makes its lair in caves, dungeons, and other subterranean complexes far away from the hated light of the surface world. Most of its time is spent in dormant dreaming, waking only occasionally to eat.
The gloom crawler moves through its underground world by attaching to any surface with the suction cups on its tentacles. The average gloom crawler has from thirty to forty tentacles, each 15 to 30 feet long. Besides suction cups, each tentacle has a small eye near the tip that allows the creature to see in all directions at once and to peek around corners or over ledges while remaining almost completely concealed.
Gloom crawlers are omnivores; under normal conditions, they sustain themselves on a diet of plants, moss, rodents, and other subterranean fauna. They do not, however, turn down the chance for a larger meal, such as that offered by a foolhardy adventurer who stumbles into a gloom crawler's lair.
When a potential opponent approaches a gloom crawler, the creature lashes out with its tentacles to grab the foe. A gloom crawler can bring up to five tentacles to bear against a single target. It always chooses to bite the softest target available (the one with the lowest AC).
