Melbourne’s iconic maze of laneways are grimy, industrial shortcuts no longer—for Melburnians, they are the destination.
By Claire Knox
Melbourne’s central business district—its rectangular network of streets, laneways, alleys, and labyrinthine passages seemingly woven and stitched together—is one of the world’s largest city grids. City surveyor Robert Hoddle mapped out the city’s wide, main streets in 1837 with a grand vision of tree-lined, European boulevards and simple geometry. But it was the city’s rich trade history during the Gold Rush that literally paved Melbourne’s iconic maze of laneways—originally set up for the cabinet-makers, jewelers, farriers, and fabric merchants to cart their wagons of goods through. These lanes are grimy, industrial shortcuts no longer—for Melburnians, they are the destination.
The limelight has traditionally shone brightest on Sydney’s glittering bays, the architectural feat of the Harbour Bridge and the wonderfully abstract sails of the Opera House, but scratch the surface of Australia’s southern belle and you’ll unravel a slick, cutting-edge city teeming with hidden delights. Melbourne’s city center is a heady, visual feast, and yet some of her most alluring features are tucked neatly just out of view.
Among cobblestone lanes, discover candlelit speakeasies, jazz bars, and quirky rooftop bars peering down at the city. In Melbourne’s center you’ll find the lion’s share of critically acclaimed restaurants and hip bars hiding behind discreet doorways, and perhaps even catch a gourmet food truck setting up shop in an adjacent enclave. The CBD’s creative pulse is laced through its lanes—especially palpable around Flinders Lane. Contemporary art galleries and fashion houses hide behind peeling terraces, beside luxurious Japanese basement bath houses, opulent boutiques, writers’ studios, cutting-edge design workshops, and laneway walls adorned with vivid street art and esoteric murals. Hosier Lane, which runs past famed Spanish eatery Movida, features some of the most sophisticated graffiti art with several Banksy-adorned walls. Inner Melbourne’s architecture is a delightful, eclectic jumble of tall, Gold Rush-era gothic Victorian mansions with Juliette balconies, domed roofs, curved Art Deco residences and shiny, gleaming modern structures. Here are five city hotspots set among it all that you shouldn’t miss.
Brother Baba Budan
Melburnians take their coffee seriously. Religiously, even. And Mark Dundon and Bridget Amor may well be the city’s own coffee gods. They’re the brains behind arguably the best specialty coffee in the country, the roastery, café, and “engine room” Seven Seeds, which has its base on the fringes of Melbourne’s CBD, Carlton. To satiate CBD cafenatics they opened petite espresso bar, Brother Baba Budan. The café was named after 17th century Islamic scholar Baba Budan—the story goes he smuggled seven seeds of fertile coffee, strapped to his waist, from Yemen back to Mecca where the seeds bloomed. Dundon, oft-described as eccentric—perhaps even obsessive—has a story now deeply entwined with Melbourne’s coffee history. He opened one of the city’s first coffee connoisseur hot spots, Ray, about 13 years ago and since then established St Ali, Seven Seeds, and a roastery and coffee farm in Honduras. The Seven Seeds team pride themselves on their commitment to high quality, single-origin beans, local roasting, and of course all of the tricks, gadgets, and elaborate methods of brewing and crafting the perfect cup.
Brother Baba Budan, squashed between utility camping stores and with its peculiar aesthetic—clusters of chairs are nailed, upside down, to the ceiling—is a melting pot of hipsters, suits, Lycra-clad cyclists, students, and all coffee devotees in-between, queuing out the door for its house blends or single origin. And the coffee (in this instance, a Seven Seeds espresso blend, with hints of caramel, vanilla, and dried apricots) is perfect. While there are stools to perch oneself on and watch laneway life go by, this is for the most part a takeaway espresso bar. According to Amor, the idea was “to do something small, a bit different, without food [they serve delicious cakes and buttery pastries only]…which took a while for people to get their heads around,” yet she’s quick to reject the idea of the celebrity barista—staff are extremely down-to-earth and friendly. “People just want a good coffee with minimal fuss—customers like to be remembered, along with what coffee they order.”

PrimusTech, which provides integrated control and automation systems and information technology solutions for buildings and facilities, posted an unaudited loss after taxation of RM1.76mil for FY18.
Nova MSC said the proposed disposal also represented an opportunity for the company to crystallise its investment in PrimusTech, which operated in a highly competitive market in Singapore.
“The proposed disposal will allow Nova MSC to focus its resources in the e-Government and healthcare application solution segments, which would have good prospects and high potential as Nova MSC has a secured book order of RM117 million,” it added.

Hoping to encourage voter turnout for the highly charged Nov. 6 midterm election, a growing number of companies are giving employees a half or full day off on Election Day, essentially paying them to go to the polls.
Going beyond the hodgepodge of state laws, which may or may not allow employees to leave work for a few hours to vote, hundreds of businesses — including several in Chicago — have committed to more generous policies that in some cases include closing up shop for the day.
“Being able to take the time to vote is a real barrier for most Americans, and companies are very well-positioned to remove that roadblock for their employees,” said Colette Kessler, director of partnerships for Vote.org, a two-year-old nonprofit aimed at increasing voter turnout.
The right to leave work to vote varies from state to state, ranging from no specific accommodations to several hours of paid time off. Most but not all states prevent employers from penalizing workers who take time off to vote.
But busy workdays, long lines and difficult logistics nonetheless keep many employees away from the polling booth on Election Day. A study by the Pew Research Center found that 14 percent of registered voters — millions of people — didn’t cast a ballot in the 2016 presidential election because of a conflicting work or school schedule.
In Illinois, the polls are open from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Election Day, making it a challenge for many employees to squeeze voting into their workday. State law gives employees two hours of unpaid leave to vote, with one day’s advance notice. Employers may decide when the hours are taken.
“If you’re working a typical 9-5 work shift, your employer doesn’t haven’t to give you anything,” said Matt Dietrich, a spokesman for the Illinois State Board of Elections. “They’re not required to give you two hours within the day, at your leisure, to go and come back.”
More than two-thirds of states, including Illinois, offer some form of early voting, but Election Day policy is the logical focal point for companies with regional or national footprints.
In March, Vote.org launched ElectionDay.org, an initiative for companies to encourage voter participation by giving employees paid time off. Chicago-based businesses like software firm Jellyvision and Out-U-Go pet care services are on the list of about 300 participating companies, which also includes Etsy, Patagonia and Levi Strauss.
“Companies are implementing new policies that make it easier for them and easier for their employees and that also stretch beyond the bare minimum to create consistency when they have a national workforce,” Kessler said.
More and more Illinois companies are going beyond the letter of the law in allowing Election Day time off, either through formal policies or flexibility.
Centro, a Chicago-based advertising technology company, is giving its 700 employees a half-day off on Election Day to encourage voter turnout among its mostly millennial workforce. About 300 employees are in Chicago, with the rest scattered across more than 20 states.
“We’re going to turn Election Day into a national holiday for our employees,” said Centro’s CEO, Shawn Riegsecker, 46.
Riegsecker said the decision was driven by studies showing poor voter turnout among millennials in the 2014 midterms and his concerns that their voices be heard in the upcoming election, where the balance of political power — and their future — could be at stake.
“We have significant long-term issues that we need to solve,” Riegsecker said. “In my opinion, that’s going to fall on the backs of millennials.”
Riegsecker, who considers himself a political independent, said there is no partisanship in his Election Day time-off policy, but he is nonetheless lobbying hard for 100 percent employee participation. He said the company asked all employees to take a selfie with their “I Voted” sticker for a video montage, which would also provide a rough accounting of voter participation.
“We encourage you to do it, and we’re giving you the time to do it, so it’s an expectation going forward,” he said.
David MacNeil, a megadonor to President Donald Trump’s inauguration and founder of southwest suburban car floor mat manufacturer WeatherTech, didn’t offer up a specific plan for Election Day, but he said in an email that the company’s 1,600 employees would all get enough time off to vote.
“For the last 29 years, WeatherTech has supported and encouraged employees to exercise their right to vote, and we have always accommodated employees’ special needs when it comes to needing extra time to make their voice heard,” MacNeil said.
SRW, a 3-year-old Chicago advertising agency, is giving its staff of 25 mostly 20-something employees a paid day off on Election Day.
“Democracy should trump commerce,” said Charlie Stone, 50, co-founder and CEO of the agency. “We really want to encourage folks to engage and participate, regardless of their philosophy.”
Stone said the agency is a hotbed of political dialogue with a “strong collection of opinions.”
“We encourage everybody, regardless of their opinion, to express it, and the best way to express it is to vote,” Stone said. “You’re more likely to vote if you’re paid to vote.”

All titles in the series share similar gameplay. Each turn allows the player to move his or her units on the map, build or improve new cities and units, and initiate negotiations with the computer-controlled players. In between turns, computer players can do the same.
The player will also choose technologies to research. These reflect the cultural, intellectual, and technical sophistication of the civilization, and usually allow the player to build new units or to improve their cities with new structures."

More than 240 individuals in Barra de Santo Antônio, on the coast of Alagoas, were admitted to a health unit this week due to seaweed poisoning, triggered by the phenomenon known as “Red Tide”. This rare event can occur in any coastal region, resulting from microorganism blooms, which may or may not be toxic.
Poisoning caused by the “red tide” mostly affected tourists who were staying at a resort on Praia de Carro Quebrado, which is located in Barra de Santo Antônio, on the coast of Alagoas.
On Thursday (1/02), 191 cases of poisoning were recorded. The number of infected bathers rose to 245 this Friday (02/02).
Understand the phenomenon
The name red tide is given because the algae that forms along the coast are reddish. If they are toxic, like those on the coast of Alagoas, microorganisms pass the toxins through wave spray. Bathers are affected when breathing contaminated air and may experience nausea, sore throat, stomach pain, cough, runny nose, nasal obstruction and signs of conjunctivitis.
A section of Carro Quebrado beach was closed to prevent the movement of people. Bans on the sale of fish and shellfish were also registered in some cities, to avoid the consumption of contaminated animals.
Factors such as high temperatures and drought facilitate the proliferation of algae, the appearance of which can be caused by environmental imbalance.
“They need nutrients to multiply and humans can interfere with the formation of these harmful algae due to the nutrients we throw into the water (garbage)”, explained professor at the Federal University of Alagoas and oceanographer Gabriel Le Campion.
Sérgio Silva, Secretary of the Environment of Barra de Santo Antônio, reported that the algae, coming from Pernambuco, migrated towards the coast of Alagoas. He mentioned that people were exposed to toxins through the air. According to Silva, the odor of algae is comparable to that of cooking gas.
In a statement, the Alagoas Tourism Secretariat said that “the authorities found that this is a temporary phenomenon and that there is no longer a risk for bathers in the localities” and that is why all beaches in the region are open for bathing.
The phenomenon should recede naturally, as microorganisms filter water and clean themselves, getting rid of toxins.

The B.C. River Forecast Centre says Fraser River water levels should start to recede slowly.
City of Chilliwack officials updated their flood prevention page accordingly on Wednesday (July 6), and telling residents to still be cautious.
“Right now our waterways are still high and moving fast,” their July 6 tweet said. “Please use caution near riverbanks and stay back from the water’s edge.”
Water levels were up to 5.87 metres at the Mission Gauge on Monday, July 4 and by Wednesday, July 6 they had dipped to 5.61 metres, which shows that freshet levels are starting to go down.
At this point levels are predicted to remain above 5.3 metres for the next week or so, so residents should continue to be careful around swift water.
At 5.5 metres the water is at “bank full conditions,” meaning the river elevation has risen to fill its natural banks but have not spilled into the flood plain.
City officials are leaving the existing evacuation alerts in place until the water levels recede further with plans for updates when the evacuation alerts are lifted.
By July 4, the River Forecast Centre was no longer predicting a 1972 flood level or worse for the Fraser, the FVRD reported. “Despite improvements to river forecasts, the FVRD’s Emergency Operation Centre (EOC) continues to monitor the situation and will increase its operations if necessary. The provincial high stream advisory and evacuation alerts issued by the FVRD remain in effect.”

This season marks the 50th anniversary of Loving v. Virginia, the U.S. Supreme Court instance that overturned state rules banning interracial wedding. Over five years, interracial relationships are becoming more prevalent throughout the united states of america, but those partners nevertheless face some challenges that are unique.
Motivated by The Loving Project, a podcast featuring the tales of mixed-race couples, we have been asking visitors to submit essays about their very own experiences.
Ma-ba-so. Thats unusual. Are you from here?
Its become a little bit of a ritual during the last ten years with several those who require my ID, and take my complete name on the phone.
I became created in Western Pennsylvania and was raised in Maryland, but throughout the decade that is last People in the us whom see my entire title and deduce so its a tad foreign-sounding have frequently expected exactly just what nation Im from. Italy? Russia? Ireland?
The folks whom guess someplace in Africa and even though they dont title a certain country are onto one thing.
Each time someone claims that racism is not issue any longer, talkwithstranger mobile site i do believe of that time period I happened to be job-hunting in Philadelphia and asked a colleague for feedback back at my application. The main advice she reluctantly relayed had been to just simply just take my married title, Mabaso, off of my application, and pass my maiden name, Johns.
Otherwise, possible companies would see my title, assume I happened to be black colored, and toss my application within the trash.
Good riddance. If a business would won’t interview me I wasnt white, I wouldnt want to work there anyway because they thought.
Quickly once I got hitched in 2007, I happened to be in very good business. In accordance with a brand new Pew Research Centers research, 10 % of married US people overall had somebody of a race that is different ethnicity in 2015. And 17 per cent of newlyweds were interracial partners. Sharply increasing variety of interracial relationships, and growing acceptance that is social them, are one thing to commemorate 50 years following the Supreme Court ruling that legalized interracial wedding in every 50 U.S. states.
However the of the Pew data is also the year I left that notable 10 percent: My divorce was finalized in 2015 year. And after investing significantly more than 12 years in a relationship by having a man that is black Southern Africa, enjoyed ones responses into the split had been painful in my opinion, not constantly into the methods we expected.
Me with my in-laws when I was married and visiting fairly segregated areas of my husbands home country, death-ray stares from middle-aged whites were fairly common as were verbal expressions of outright shock from black customer service workers who saw my name on my credit card, or community members who observed.
Whenever I got in into the Philadelphia area, we noticed the strain we carried from the responses. Southern Africa is a captivating, breathtaking, resilient nation, roiled by many people issues much like those associated with the united states of america, but I happened to be constantly happy getting back again to a spot where i did sont feel this kind of oddity for walking on with my spouse.
But my first genuine clue that things actually werent as rosy when I thought, also among my closest buddies, arrived whenever individuals whom learned all about the impending divorce or separation anxiously desired to understand if I would personally keep my married title.
I acquired the question so swiftly, therefore earnestly, and thus over and over over over repeatedly that We wondered if all recently divorced women (that has taken their exs name) are susceptible to the exact same interrogationor if peoples pushing desire for this individual detail of mine had almost anything to do with my hitched name coming from another type of battle, a different country, and a new tradition.
To phrase it differently, would I return to a white-sounding identification? Or would we keep this moniker that is confusing does not appear to match my skin? It felt just as if individuals were uncomfortable with this right element of my identity, obtained through marriage but didnt sound it until they discovered the split.
But to access just just what hurt me probably the most about peoples responses to my divorce proceedings, i need to be truthful about an unpleasant truth of my wedding: we finished it after several years of escalating spoken and abuse that is emotional.
Once we celebrate greater acceptance for interracial wedding, we cant make the error of idealizing it. As opposed to just exactly what people that are many for me through the years, there was clearly absolutely absolutely nothing particularly gorgeous or worthy about my wedding because my husbands epidermis and mine didnt match. Our relationship ended up being susceptible to the exact same joys, problems and dangers as any relationship, and regrettably, with time, my spouse revealed the classic habits and actions of a abuser faculties that observe no racial or social boundaries, and possess no supply in racial identification.
But once people found out about the breakup, different variations associated with the exact same concern began coming, from a few buddies that are white.
How is it possible to be certain it is not merely social distinctions?
In the place of obtaining the truth associated with the punishment accepted, I encountered insinuations that my wedding had been ending because after 10 years together, a white individual created into the U.S. and a black colored individual created in Southern Africa could maybe maybe not get together again their cultural differences.
It absolutely was a denial of my experience that is traumatic even even even worse, it looks like proof that due to the differences when considering my hubby and me personally, individuals had judged our wedding as less tenable and less available to interaction and compromise than marriages between people who have more comparable backgrounds.
Later one night, messaging someone near to me personally about how exactly my exs cruel and controlling character was drawing out of the divorce proceedings, my confidante, who’s white, recommended that my exs behavior would be to be anticipated because he could be black colored.
My tears splashed throughout the keyboard. I had written one thing in most caps, but We dont keep in mind exactly exactly exactly what.
She wasnt the only person to utter similar viewpoints on the situation of my divorce or separation.
And I also had been kept using the excruciating reality that some individuals, perhaps the people who had smiled back at my wedding for decades, really thought that the difficulties of social distinctions are indistinguishable from an abusive dynamic. Or they thought my spouses behavior had been a matter of their competition, maybe maybe not his very own nature as an individual.
Just what a burden that is horrible of objectives for black guys whom tenderly love their lovers. Exactly what a bad weight at hand to those that have survived punishment from lovers of a various battle.
If my better half was white and American-born, I had told individuals I happened to be finding a divorce proceedings as the relationship ended up being abusive, we question anybody could have recommended I really had been making due to cultural distinctions. like i will be, and

In the coming years, the SURF organisation will work with its members to improve the quality of education and research with the aid of IT innovation. We will do this in nine innovation zones. On this page you can read which ones they are and what the current state of affairs or ambition is.
Innovation zone Building skills and capacity
In this innovation zone, we ensure that institutionally organised support and discipline-specific research partnerships are connected by 2027.
The competencies researchers need for the digital transformation of research are supported by a shared curriculum through collaboration between DCCs and research schools. By 2027, the institutionally organised support and the collaboration links that are established for each specific discipline will be linked to each other. In a SURF context, we coordinate the collaboration at a national level. We set up experimental environments in which we work with researchers to optimise the latest technologies – such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing – on state-of-the-art infrastructures for research applications. This allows researchers to push the boundaries of their research. Knowledge sharing will also take place here together with the domain expertise of the research communities and DCCs.
The possible roadmaps for this priority are organising training courses and programmes for researchers, setting up federated first and second line support together with the DCCs.

Former Marine, Kyle McBride did everything in his power to avoid the temptation and intrigue that were always lurking at Melrose Place, often failing. McBride entered the show’s story with his wife, Taylor. But, like every other romance on the show – it was bound for failure.
Despite the ups and downs, McBride faced, and much unlike many of the characters on the soap-opera, Kyle would eventually come through and find love and happiness.
Daphne Zuniga as Jo Reynolds - Then
A fan favorite, Jo Reynolds, has been a part of Melrose Place since the very beginning. She quickly developed a relationship with Jake Hanson, one of the few men in Jo's life who treated her kindly. Reynolds suffered from terrible boyfriend syndrome for many of the shows seasons.
Jo would often find her past mistakes haunting her - no matter how much she tried to take a more steady way of life. Her persistence paid off when she found a love that took her out of Los Angeles.
Daphne Zuniga - Now
Daphne Zuniga has had one of the most versatile careers of all of her co-stars from Melrose Place. After exiting the show, she made guest-starring appearances on many of the popular television shows running at the time.
She was a regular part of One Tree Hill, playing Brooke Davis's mother, Victoria, from 2008 to 2012. She was most recently in the film Beyond Paradise.
Rob Estes - Now
Despite not having joined the show during its first season, he would not be easily disposed of. In fact, his character lasted until the series ended in 1999! He moved on to work on Suddenly Susan, where's played Oliver Browne for a year.
In 2008, he joined the cast of 90210 - appearing on the shoe until 2010. Most recently, he's appeared in the series Famous in Love, portraying Steve, though the show was canceled after two seasons.
Jamie Luner As Lexi Sterling – Then
Keeping up with Lexi Sterling's love life was a mission for most Melrose Place fans. She had a long history with many of the members that began even before the events of the series took place.
Lexi made her debut on the show divorced, but in alignment with many soap operas - that didn't mean that she wouldn't stay separated from her ex-husband for long. As her story progressed, she was involved in love triangles that affected most Melrose Place residents.

Senior officials at the Pacific Sport and Physical Activity Policy Roundtable at Sheraton Samoa Aggie Grey’s Hotel Bungalows in Apia this week were urged to include anti-doping policies in their Sports Policy.
Chairman of the Oceania Regional Anti-Doping Organisation (ORADO) Cyrille Mainguy encouraged the country officials to recognize the need to implement and to fulfill the obligation of the International Convention against Doping in Sport.
“This inclusion will also lead to more cohesion between National Olympic Committees (NOCs) and their respective governments,” Mainguy said.
Mainguy who is also the Secretary General of the Vanuatu Sports and National Olympic Committee (VASANOC) said that the meeting agreed to the proposal, noting that anti-doping is very important in the protection and promotion of the integrity of sports.
The meeting in Apia was the second roundtable, following the first one in Vanuatu in 2017. It was also attended by Samoa’s Minister of Education, Sports and Culture, Loau Keneti Sio, who is also the Pacific Games Chairman.
“This Roundtable is a platform to connect, collaborate, share good practice and work together to strengthen sports policy in Pacific Island Countries and Territories,” Loau Keneti Sio said in his opening remarks.
“Today we will discuss the latest progress in the region on national sports policy and strategic initiatives underway towards better coordination and towards targeted action to realize our shared vision for a stronger and more resilient Pacific,” Sio added.
When asked about the meeting outcomes for ORADO, Executive Officer Natanya Potoi-Ulia said it was all achieved as their proposal for anti-doping policies was reflected in the resolutions and outcome statement of the meeting.
The roundtable was attended by representatives of national, regional and international sporting bodies including representatives of regional and international organisations.
The meeting ended with a networking session for the 170 delegates, jointly funded by ORADO together with Samoa’s Government of Ministry of Education, Sports and Culture.

A bench headed by NGT''s judicial member S P Wangdi said that ''Bihar Sand Mining Policy, 2019'' was in conformity with the directions given by the Supreme Court and the ''Sustainable Sand Mining Management Guidelines, 2016'' in this regard.
On applicants'' argument that while framing the policy, the state did not state the source of power under which it was published, the NGT said "this contention appears to have been made overlooking the obvious power of the State to make policies, pass orders, issue administrative rules, circulares, instructions etc. in exercise of its executive powers so long as those are not violative of the constitutional and statutory provisions."
"We find that the ''2019 Policy'' does not appear to suffer from any inadequacy or infirmity as pointed out by the applicants," the bench said.
The bench further said, "Upon consideration of the submissions, we find that the 2019 policy is in conformity with the directions of the SC and the ''Sustainable Sand Mining Management Guidelines, 2016''."
It also rejected applicants'' argument that restricting grant of leases only upto two to an individual in the ''2019 Policy'' was in violation of the provisions of Article 19 (1) (g) (right to practice any profession or to carry on any occupation, trade or business) of the Constitution of India, saying that the NGT was not the right forum to decide it.
Advocate Keshav Mohan, the additional standing counsel for the state government, opposed the applications, saying that the policy ensured that sand mining in Bihar was carried out in an environmentally sustainable manner to ensure availability of adequate quantity of sand for construction at a reasonable price and generate employment.
The applications had said, "Vide the said policy, the respondent no. 2 (...) have sought to artificially bifurcate identified units of the river in the garb of controlling exploitation imposing unreasonable restrictions in permitting one individual or entity to have only two blocks in violation of law."
The 2019 policy was brought in haste...It is urged that the 2019 policy is in direct contravention of the judgments passed by the Supreme Court and the NGT," the application had said.
It said that the 2019 policy was "in conflict with the ''Sustainable Sand Mining Guidelines, 2016" and an earlier decision of the SC as "it permitted division of river stretches in a district into contiguous blocks."
The ''Sustainable Sand Mining Management Guidelines, 2016'' strictly "prohibits artificial breaking of homogenous stretches of river bed for granting leases for sand mining", the application said, adding that "the policy was required to be revisited to fit into the framework of the SC order".

American Patriot Oil & Gas (ASX: AOW)
American Patriot (ASX:AOW) has just acquired a conventional oil and gas asset in Texas giving it an immediate 50 barrels of oil per day that is likely to increase to over 150bopd in the short term.
The acquisition is part of AOW’s overall gameplan of paying cents on the dollar for distressed but highly viable oil production resources that any oiler would consider adding to their production portfolio.

The company has made the latest acquisition for just US$430,000 with independent reserve reports suggesting it is worth US$3 million
This recent news follows AOW’s game-changing acquisition just weeks ago, when it picked up another distressed asset for US$4.5 million, with low production costs set to translate into strong margins.

FIFTY KILOMETRES north of Nicosia, the capital city of Cyprus, lies Korineum Golf & Beach Resort, a golfing paradise in the Mediterranean from the moment it opened back in April 2007.
Boasting an 18-hole championship golf course designed by Peter Harridine, who has worked on more than 160 golf courses in Europe, Africa and the Middle East, the par-72 layout is routed so that golfers can enjoy mountain and sea views from each hole.
The paspalum playing surface maintained in excellent condition all-year round, as well as the strategically placed bunkers and water hazards, help to contribute to the breathtaking experience the golf course provides.
The signature fifth hole has players engulfed by the mountains. Teeing off towards the Mediterranean Sea, the ball travels through the olive, carob and pine trees, with the Beşparmak Mountain Range directly behind and visible when putting out on the green, which is adjacent to Lake Korineum.
As well as a highly-rated course, Korineum Golf & Beach Resort also offers extensive practice facilities, including a 34-bay driving range, two putting greens, a short game area and a three-hole Academy Course featuring full length par-5, par-4 and par-3 holes, giving players a taste of what they will encounter during their rounds.
The high standards found out on the course are replicated elsewhere at the resort. With the accommodation, there are 86 luxury rooms pleasantly hidden among the pine forest at the heart of the resort, offering privacy, yet it is only a short walk from the rest of the site.
The rooms are beautifully decorated and furnished, while there is an attractive outdoor pool, which is nestled between the pines and located directly in front of the hotel room building entrances.
The spa and wellness centre, meanwhile, allows guests to experience peace and tranquility with treatments performed by the resort’s masterful therapists.
Korineum Golf & Beach Resort also has its own beach, which is located 1.5km away from the main building and accessible via a free shuttle bus. Whether it’s sipping on a cocktail, reading a book in the shade or swimming in the glistening waters, a trip to the 70-metre private beach is undeniably a holiday must. The beach has a prestigious pier, while the Korineum Beach Snack Bar offers a selection of tasty lunch options and a variety of beach drink favourites.

Nicole Sinclair, above, has one of the most enviable roles in the luxury hotel world – she is GM of Faena Hotel Miami Beach – but it all came about by accident. A regular guest at St Regis New York was Alan Faena, the Argentinian visionary of Syrian Sephardic Jewish descent whose name now adorns Faena District, six whole blocks of Miami Beach. He was so impressed by this Toronto woman that, says the gal, he hired her, and her husband, Benjamin Sinclair, to be part of the five-person team that, in 2013, constituted the nucleus of what would be the Faena Miami empire. She now oversees, says the gal, not only the 169-room hotel, but, across Collins Avenue, and to the left of the photo here, first Faena Forum, a carpark building and another a-yet-unattributed space, all by Rem Koolhaas/OMA (there is also a smaller existing hotel, Casa Claridge’s, beyond).
On the east of Collins, beyond the main hotel, is a brand-new block, Faena House residences, by Norman Foster’s practice. The main hotel is a conversion of the 14-floor Hotel Saxony, and many of its rooms have terraces with stunning views down to the beach and out to sea – I especially love the 14th floor Presidential Suite, which has five bedrooms and terraces big enough to entertain up to 100. The whole thing is imposing, very imposing. Down at ground level, enter from Collins and the main lobby is known as The Cathedral: it has six ceiling-high columns covered in gold leaf and, each side, three full-height allegorical frescoes of such attributes as passion. The interiors throughout are by the director of The Great Gatsby, Baz Luhrmann, and his wife, Catherine Martin, did uniforms for the 500 staff, who include the team running the Tierra Santa Healing House spa.
There are libraries and reading rooms leading off, each room with more character than the last. There is a two-tier theatre, with weekend burlesque shows, drink Champagne and eat nibbles that, judging by the stunning tuna crudo and salmon confit I tried in Los Fuegos by Argentinian wunderkind chef Francis Mallmann, must be sensational. There is a 22-seat wine cellar dining room, with a secret bar behind, and a dinner-only Pao Asian restaurant by Paul Qui, who is a sensation in his main base, Austin TX. The biggest sensation of this entire magical operation, however, is Gone but not Forgotten, a nine-foot real mammoth skeleton gilded by Damien Hirst. It sits in the garden, as if an altar to The Cathedral’s progression.
The mammoth, like the entire Faena district, is funded by Len Blavatnik (who worked with Alan Faena, and with Nihiwatu’s Chris Burch, on Faena Hotel Buenos Aires). Alan Faena, with his gallerist wife Ximena Caminos, is always doing something new – after fashion in his native Argentina and genetically creating red roses in Paraguay, he got into hotels, and thus into establishing the Faena Miami arts happenings. Helped by the Faena Circle of advisors, recent happenings here have included the Cuban group Los Carpinteros’ Conga Irreversible, conga backwards, and three-hour processions, of dancers and food trucks, that closed Collins. The pair has established the annual Faena Prize, last won, in 2016, by the UK’s Roger Hiorns, and for 2017, the programme already includes a biennale of moving images, music by pianist-composer Anton Batagov, and violinist-conductor Alina Ibragimova, and performance art by Whoop Dee Doo. And all the while while these and other events are going on, cool-calm-collected Nicole Sinclair has to make sure that the luxury Faena Hotel Miami Beach runs like clockwork. NOW SEE HER AND THE MAMMOTH, BELOW


Chamiers Road in Chennai is one of the busiest roads and part of an upmarket area. It’s where the Park Sheraton 5 star hotel and The Times of India office, amongst many others, are located. It’s the road that leads to Boat Club Area, the most expensivest residential real estate in Chennai.
Yet, even in such high profile road, I was shocked to see the sheer lack of safety and the danger that commuters are subjected to. These iron rods you see below, jut out like open knifes ready to stab anyone who may just accidently trip over.
These open rods you see stretch for nearly a kilometer on these busy roads and they have been out there for over a month now. And it doesn’t look like the construction will be finished anytime soon.
There’s a tragedy waiting to happen.

“To be an expat in Bangkok, for me it is clear that you cannot leave your home country without your cat! If we want animals, we must assume every circumstance. At first I was afraid of the French administration but then everything is just simple when you arrive in Thailand… The animals are not even quarantined. During the flight, my cat was calm and was the darling of the entire row. It was a little hot in the first month with the tropical climate but then she has become used to it.” Young professional, Adrien, 24 years old.
What is the procedure?
- Vaccines: only vaccine against rabies is mandatory. Your dog / cat must have been vaccinated at least 30 days before departure. The certificate of good health of your pet is required (in English), focus must be achieved 48 hours before flying.
- Transportation: there are many companies like Turkish Airlines that allows small animals in the cabin. However, they must be less than 8kg. The price is on average of 25 euros/ kg and in the weight of the cage (take in a canvas, it will be lighter and more flexible). And if you want your pet to travel, it will be absolutely necessary, we will need their passport.
Tip: during flight remember to moisturize your pet by using a pipette. Note that you do not have the right to give her to eat.
- Once you arrive in Thailand, you will have to head to the veterinary service. No worries, customs officers will not ask you to part with your pet but just fill out some papers. Once passed this first step; out of the airport, two lines will occur to you– “Nothing to Declare” and “Declare Something.” Go to the second line and prepare 1000 baht (25 euros) to declare your pet.
Can I rent an apartment with my pet?
Beware, most condominium owners do not accept the presence of cat or dog. The condominiums are furnished apartments and the owners are afraid that cats do their claws on the sofa or the dogs disturb the neighborhood. However, their presence is sometimes tolerated especially in some remote districts of Bangkok. But we prefer to tell you, we have to arm them with calmness and patience to negotiate and take into account your pet when you sign your contract!
Out with an animal in Bangkok:
You want to socialize or just stretch your dog’s paws? Large lawns, swimming pools, comfortable rooms equipped with webcams (so you can watch him from a distance); but also restaurants for dog grooming services, babysitter … Nothing is too good for your companion, Bangkok gives you even more! Here are some addresses that will be happy to help with our little four-legged friends.

Motley Crue - The End Live In Los Angeles - New 2LP + DVD
Format: New Coloured LP + DVD Label: Eagle Rock Cat. No. 3517335 Barcode: 0602435173351 Released: 27/11/2020
2 x 180gm colour vinyl + DVD
On the 31st December 2015 Mötley Crüe took to the stage of the Staples Center in their home city of Los Angeles for their last ever live performance. It was the culmination of a farwell tour which had started in July 2014 and travelled around the world taking in North and South America, Japan, Australia and New Zealand, Europe and the Middle East. The band had signed a legally binding 'cessation of touring' contract that prevented them touring as Mötley Crüe beyond the end of 2015 and so this concert truly was 'The End'. Being Mötley Crüe, they did of course go out in style with a spectacular light show and stage set, pyrotechnics, Tommy Lee's incredible rollercoaster drum solo and a set list packed with Mötley Crüe classics. They may be gone but they'll never be forgotten.

Date: 10/15/18 06:01 pm Title: Found Footage
Found Footage is one of those stories that builds slowly, teasing its deeper mystery, and hinting at a wider conspiracy of friends and family along the way. It seems innocent at first, a melancholy revisiting of a young woman's childhood home, but the more Allison discovers, the more she begins to wonder . . . and fear.
What makes the story particularly effective is the fact that we are just as in the dark as she is, but we have the benefit of knowing the genre and being familiar with Courtney's writing. Even as Allison is making assumptions about the hidden stash of videotapes - mistaken assumptions that lead her down the wrong path - we are coming to understand the bigger picture. That means when other things start happening, like missed calls from friends, our anxiety increases alongside hers, but for completely different
Given that we are dealing with a sort-of locked room mystery, with Allison and the TV comprising over ninety-percent of the story, it is the details that make this such a compelling read. Even when portraying happy memories, the dirty tracking, poor quality audio, and jerky camera movements of old VHS tapes can be unsettling, so that really adds to the drama. Add to that the lack of labels, and the way in which she is forced to watch the videos out of sequence, and the experience is even more jarring.
That is not to say the entire story relies on outdated technology to make it work. Courtney uses a cellphone to connect Allison to the outside world, and then uses a dead battery to isolate her once again, not just cutting her off from answers, but from warnings and friendly concern. The missed calls and texts help to keep the tension high throughout, and her inability to reach out and demand the answers she needs serves to increase the feeling of helpless terror.
What if your world was a lie? What if your entire existence was a lie? Those are the questions that come to confront Allison. Does how and why of such a betrayal really matter? That is the question that comes to define her as the story comes to a close, with an odd text exchange with her best friend ending things in such a way that a happy ending could be just around the corner . . . or a horrific confrontation, depending on how much of your own feelings you read into things.

(copied over my FM review, might as well praise you here too.)
Very clever story. Love twists away from the traditional forced fem tales. I don't think it necessarily needs another part, though that depends entirely on you. I would definitely read it.
Allison seems like a very mature person. She sees that her life is happy and that her mother's twisted, abusive actions were out of love. She must confront her of course, but to me it seems pretty clear that she will find it in her heart to forgive as long as she is no longer lied to when she asks for the truth. She should think of that boy the way she initially did, as a tragically lost brother, and move forward.
I would say for a story referencing Cheryl Lynn I would have expected more humiliation in her transition. Obviously the amnesia is the backbone of the plot, but it could have been delayed until a few months into the transition to provide space for that sort of scene where he is aware of what is happening to him. In the end though, if that had been the process you could probably throw all forgiveness out the window when Allison finds out about it and that's not the sort of ending I want for her.
Great job. This is a story I'm going to remember. Thanks for writing it.

This article discusses the impact of online Psychotherapy for Adults. The key objective in this systematic review is to evaluate the types of Online Psychotherapy (OP) currently available and the quality of the information being provided. This review used two main primary databases, EMBASE and PsycINFO, in the process. Within this process, fifty-nine studies were evaluated and the primary online psychotherapy modalities identified were self-therapy programs using email or video chat to communicate. They summarized that compared to face-face therapies, OP had results that were similar. The different forms of communication opened up new avenues for the patient and therapist relationship and allowed for an increase in therapeutic possibilities. OP's in this study showed potential treatment alternatives in common issues but they notate that it is unclear if this type of therapy will be effective in more severe cases. They still believe that face-to-face alternatives for the severe cases is best as of this time. Psychodynamic psychotherapist needs to consistently review the changes taking place in the world and how these impact individuals in order to make adjustments to their approach within this industry.

The game of baseball is colloquially known as America’s favourite pastime, yet, in 1984, as a demonstration sport in the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, baseball provided an unlikely platform for an improbable Canadian to live the Olympic dream.
It was a sequence of chance occurrences that saw Henry Andrulis, a native of Toronto, Ontario, land at Dodgers Stadium in L.A. where he represented Canada at the Olympic Summer Games.
“I’d been playing some senior ball in Toronto while managing a full-time job,” recalls Andrulis. “I could finally afford some time in the summer to tryout for a national team, as I always wondered if I could make a national team. It just happened that I went out for the 1984 national team, [which] initially wasn’t an Olympic team – it was just a national program for the summer.
“What happened was the Soviets boycotted the 84 Olympics, so the Cubans boycotted [as well]. When Cuba boycotted, they needed a team to fill in, and it just happened that Canada had finished ninth the year before. So, all of a sudden, the team I’m trying out for is going to L.A. for the Olympics.”
Andrulis found himself on the final roster for Canada’s national baseball team, and just like that, without ever asking for it, the 28-year-old Torontonian was going to be an Olympian.
“There were probably about 30 of us at camp when they posted the final roster,” he said. “When I had my name on there I was pretty overwhelmed and excited. You knew you were in for an experience now, it was just a matter of going for the ride and enjoying it.”
As a last-minute entry, the Canadian ball players were unable to partake in the Opening Ceremonies, as they pulled into California while they were taking place. However, being a demonstration sport, baseball was privy to an opening ceremony of its own.
“Because we were such a late entry, we landed in L.A. as the Opening Ceremonies were going on,” said Andrulis. “So, we got there a little bit late, but we [participated in] the opening ceremonies at Dodgers Stadium.
“There were well over 50,000 people there. There were light bulbs and cameras flashing as we all marched in, and they did a nice little introduction of all the teams.”
On August 1, 1984, Team Canada stepped onto the field at Dodgers Stadium against Nicaragua, and, playing as a designated hitter, the 28-year-old Andrulis began his Olympic journey.
“We stepped onto this beautifully manicured field – there had to be at least 30-40,000 people. It was pretty exciting to be out on that field with that many people there. It was a real thrill.”
The game with the Nicaraguans proved to be a nail-biter, as Canada fell 4-3 in 12 innings. Then, on August 3, the Canucks would lose to South Korea 3-1, eliminating them from medal contention. Canada’s final game would be on August 5, where they would beat the eventual gold medal winners, Japan, 6-4.
While finishing fifth out of the eight competing teams, Andrulis was just happy to be part of Canada’s Olympic team, as the Canadian camaraderie shone through-and-through, proving to be just as prominent in ’84 as it is now in 2010.
“We had around 400 athletes there [in 1984], so we had a big team,” said Andrulis. “You got to meet a lot of different Canadians who were all there for the same goal. We supported all the different Canadian athletes in whatever event they were involved in.
“I remember going to the pool numerous times. Everyone knew that so-and-so was going for a medal in this heat and everybody would go to the pool. That was the thing to do – follow around the Canadian athletes in their pursuit of their medal.”
Now residing in Thorold, Ontario, where he is the acting president of Thorold Legion Baseball, Andrulis will forever remember those 15 days in the summer of 1984 where he proudly donned the Maple Leaf, representing his country as an Olympian.
“It was a once in a lifetime experience that I’ll always remember,” said Andrulis.
“Every time I watch the Olympics now, I see the Canadian pride – especially the Canadians winning these gold medals on our soil. I see it in their faces – the kids that are there competing – whether they win or they lose, they all just seem to be soaking it in and that’s what it’s all about.”

PROS: Cat 6, good selection of lengths and color as well as protection for the lock tab, yet not a full boot. very nice!
PROS: They seem to be about the size they are supposed to be.
They come in a variety of colors.
CONS: They do not make good connections with Monoprice patch panels.
Thank you for your review on PID 11274. I see that you have also ordered the white and yellow versions of this cable. If I may ask, is this connection issue occurring with all three colors? How many cables out of each PID did you experience these issues with? Do the cables appear to be too loose in the ports? Is the issue still present when the cables are used with other devices such as computers, modems, routers, switches, etc.? Also, do you happen to have the PIDs of the keystones and patch panels in use here? Please let me know so we can look into this matter further. My apologies for any inconvenience and thank you in advance!
