Plus: Jefferson staff was excellent, very friendly and helpful!
Plus: Staff was accommodating, put the flower in the room I asked for. Upgraded us to a better room after checking in, was attentive with needs for ice and deliveries

Plus: Love the charm of its period decor.

Plus: We wanted to stay in downtown Richmond but the other hotels were very expensive. The hostel was perfect with a spacious room to ourselves and a private bathroom. The breakfast in the morning was simple and very clean.

Plus: I liked the simple neatness of the room as well as the ease of checking in. There were no problems going through a third party. It's a little out of the way from downtown, but I knew that ahead of time. Soft towels and a comfortable bed.
Minus: The room was fairly clean. Could hear any noice outside in the halls, but I supose that's just a hotel.

Plus: The Westin is nice, clean and I like the location. A bit pricey for what we got. Staff was super nice.

Staff- professional, efficient, very nice
Amenities- free parking, free wi-fi, executive club lounge with continental breakfast and complimentary drinks/snacks throughout day

Highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a great place to stay and not wanting to spent more of their budget on a hotel stay than necessary. My choice on my next visit to Richmond.
Plus: Nice, clean well maintained facility. They were able to check us in early, glad this was possible - it was a very long day of flight issues.
Pool area was clean.
Minus: Nothing we didn't like - tip, balance your pool chemistry. Chlorine odor should not be that prevalent. Thanks
Plus: Clean, new, comfortable, nice staff, great breakfast.
Minus: I'm a picky traveler with high standards but I can't find anything to comment negatively on our stay.
Plus: The staff was friendly. The room was a nice size and clean.
Minus: The bed was uncomfortable.. the mattress was hard, the pillows were flimsy, and the blanket was too thin. The hotel pool area and breakfast area were packed with kids so we did not use either.
Plus: The location was great for the U of Richmond graduation. The rooms were generously sized with a kitchenette. The pool and jacuzzi were very nice. Breakfast was standard but very good with very friendly staff. All over, a great 2 days.

Minus: Arriving after a 9 hour drive, and planning to meet family staying at the same hotel only to find out that they had given my room to someone else--double booked. Then had the audacity to say it was because I booked through a "third partvendor" i.e. Expedia located via Kayak. Fortunately they paid for my stay at the Marriott 2 mi away , where I learned they did this to 3 other people. Next time , book the Marriott instead. Not the best way to start an important graduation weekend.

Plus: Impeccable Customer Service. From the first step out of my vehicle, and it being promptly valeted, to checking out and the Front Desk kindly offering to hold our bags or load into our cars for us. Simply remarkable. The room was beautiful, spacious, and comfortable. Reading the history of the hotel and all of the reclaimed and repurposed features was inspiring. Fabulous atmosphere, top-notch cocktails and the Maple-Pine's dinner was out of this world! The Quirk is doing it right!
Minus: We were disappointed the rooftop wasn't open yet, but, that just gives us more of a reason to return!

Plus: Loved the location and the style of the hotel (very modern with pops of color). The room was beautiful and had everything we could ask for. The location is the best in Richmond.
Minus: Our room was only surface clean when we arrived. There were dishes in the dishwasher that were still dirty, and the dishes in the cabinet didn't look too clean either. The floor felt like it hadn't been vacuumed since the previous residents' stay, and there was a suspicious stain on the comforter. The sheets, bathroom, and kitchen surfaces did appear to be clean.

Plus: Elegant clubby atmosphere. Well appointed room and comfy bed.
Minus: Plumbing made noise during the night.
Plus: -Great location
-Very friendly and helpful staff
-Pizza deliveries right to room door
Minus: -Menu was not as expanded as I thought it would be
-Reserved room w/ balcony. To our major disappointment, our balcony had a 5 1/2 foot wall that was not noted in advertisement - major let down.
Plus: Clean. Great location! Comfortable bed.
Minus: Broken coffee maker. No biggie, Starbucks is across the street.
Plus: Room / Hotel staff overall was clean and hospitable
Minus: I didn't like the fact that we were stuck in a room in the back facing a wall. I will probably go back to the Omni or try the Renaissance Hotel next time in Richmond. At least there you're not looking at brick walls. I parked on the street couple blocks up due to over priced valet......it simply isn't needed with the parking garages around.
Plus: Staff was friendly and helpful, room was clean and quiet.
Minus: Lighting in the room was not bright enough; at least one mirror should be available in the room, outside of the bathroom; headboard was not attached firmly so it banged against the wall with any movement(had to wedge a towel between it and the wall).
Plus: Quaint and location was great! Staff was fantastic! Every one of them during our stay-- from the valet to housekeeping.
Minus: The noise from the street and the bed mattress seems to be old.
Plus: The staff was extremely helpful and willing to support with all our needs! Great location in downtown Richmond. Walking distance to great resturants and bars.
Plus: The hotel was nicely maintained and clean with very nice rooms. The location was great and walkable to many restaurants and shops.
Minus: I was disappointed when they confirmed my request for a small refrigerator via text message but once I got there couldn't find it in my room. I called the front text who notified me that there are no rooms with refrigerators but they could refrigerate things for me for 31$/day. NO thanks because I was also surprised by the 21$/day for parking.
Plus: Location was great. Staff was responsive to an issue we had. Beautiful lobby and restaurant. Room just the right size unlike other boutique hotels.
Minus: Parking is too expensive. Housekeeping was a little too anxious to clean the room.
Plus: The staff was friendly and professional. The rooms spacious. The beds were to die for! By far the best rest I've had in some time.
I would definitely return when in Richmond again.
Plus: Alfreda and Lilly were absolutely wonderful at the front desk!
Plus: Location is great but unfortunately I did not have time to enjoy the area.
Minus: In the AM the maid knocked on my door a little early.

Plus: The hotel was awesome and the staff was very friendly.

Plus: Everything is great.i never left the hotel and was very happy the entire time.
Minus: Only thing missing were the luxury robes. I like to sit around and pretend that i am VERY wealthy
Minus: I checked in, saw the room, laughed, and left. Reception would not return money. Fought the charge with credit card company. Stay away.
Plus: Location was very convenient to dining in Short Pump.

Plus: The staff was extremely cheerful, ready to assist, and helpful. The location was very convenient. Overall a very pleasant stay.
Minus: The bed was a bit too firm.
Plus: We stayed only 1 night downtown.....but it was wonderful. Valet parking was quick and courteous. Front desk employees were friendly and helpful. The shuttle service was a wonderful bonus since there is so much to do in Richmond. The room was clean and tastefully decorated and the bar and restaurant were also wonderful , clean, and the staff courteous. Would definitely stay again.
Minus: parking is not included, valet parking rated @ $ 23 per day. For those on personal trips: Across the street, public parking is available at $8-$18 per day, depends on timing.
Plus: Enjoyed that the building was a urban refurbish. Every staff person went beyond what I expected regarding service. Our room was made available early in the day to meet our schedule. Very prompt transportation service.
Minus: Would have been nice to have a more upscale restaurant in the hotel, but the large bar area and regar dining area were great for breakfast, lunch and snacks.
Plus: Easy check-in, adjustable beds, free coffee, close to the Richmond Coliseum, free shuttle
Minus: Valet took way too long--both days seemed to lack enough employees. We had to wait in a long line for 20+ minutes during both check-in and check-out.
Plus: clean and nice
Minus: the heater made way to much noise. hard to sleep.
Plus: Friendly atmosphere
Minus: The price
Plus: The location to downtown Richmond is excellent with many restaurants nearby.
Minus: Wish there was a schuttle to the airport which is only 15 minutes away.
Plus: Personalen var extremt glad, redo att hjälpa, och hjälpsam. Läget var mycket fördelaktigt. Sammantaget en mycket trevlig vistelse.
Minus: Sängen var lite för hård.

I surmise weddings/events are this venues bread & butter whereas the rooms are a pleasant conviviality.
Minus: Do you remember grandma's toilet, where several courtesy flushes were required to safely ensure things didn't get clogged....well...welcome back :)
Built 1847, and restored in 1988 as an Inn, so quirky plumbing can be expected :)
Plus: Close to many Civil War Museums. Edgar Allen Poe lived across the street. Was a frequent visitor.
Minus: Breakfast area was unattended. Trash piled up in can. However, I would stay again and recommend to others.
Minus: price, old.
Plus: Room was excellent but had no mini fridge. Only window in the room was painted shut.
Plus: Wonderful venue. Very historic. Staff was very helpful checking our luggage for the day.
Minus: No self parking
Minus: We were originally placed in a ground floor room (after requesting a room on a higher floor), which was dark and had a window into the hallway corridor. It felt as if you were in a dungeon. After our first night (of a two night stay) we discovered two bedbugs in our bed. We immediately notified the front desk which kindly agreed to change our room. Although the second room we were placed in was much nicer and on the top floor of the hotel, our stay was less than comfortable given the fact that it was difficult to sleep when imagining bedbugs crawling in bed with you. The hotel staff did not offer to compensate us in anyway for our troubles other than a gift mug. Although the hotel was booked for the weekend and we had heard good things about it, I would strongly recommended finding somewhere else to stay if visiting Richmond.
Minus: In room refrigerator made an awful noise, had to unplug
Plus: It was comfortable . the staff was super & pleasant enjoyed my stay
Minus: No place to park
Plus: Location made it easy to walk to nearby attractions, restaurants and bars. Old town feel and culturally diverse area. Felt safe with strong police presence.
Minus: Not a downside really, but no easy way to carry luggage to room. Uneven walks and paths for us that like our rolling luggage. You get what expect from a hotel built in the 1800's. Neat place. Rooms are dingy.
Plus: The carriage house rooms that are disconnected from main Inn is where I stayed and it was lovely. The room was clean, the bathroom newly remodeled, the Queen bed soft and inviting. I had to leave before the included breakfast but I liked everything I saw.
Minus: The area was near downtown but still a bit sketchy. I started walking to find a cafe or restaurant but then thought better of and turned around. The parking was valet for an extra $12 or street parking but if you parked on the street (if you found any) you would get towed if you didn't move by 7am or 8am.
Plus: Never disappoints with convenience, location, charm. Had a different room this time, garden suite, and liked it. Spacious room, very comfortable bed, no noise issues.
Minus: Lighting in the bathroom was a bit dim, but otherwise great.
Minus: Price, and location specific to event I was attending. Very inflexible and relatively early check out time 11am only negative but well offset by price and location.

Plus: Nice hotel and very pleasantly surprised by the breakfast variety. Although I'm not a fun of the style my wife loved the "lodge style" feeling of the hallways and rooms. Somewhat unique architectural design.
Minus: They cut of my room and building access key 15 minutes before the official noon check out, as I was transporting my luggage from the room to the car thus locking me out of the building (I was in their second building, which is not staffed at the lobby apparently). Therefore access to the building and the room is card access only. I had to call my wife and ask her to bring out the rest of the luggage since I couldn't get back in. It was either that or have to walk back to the main lobby in a different building and ask them to reactivate my card.
Also while this is not the hotels fault I'm not impressed by the fact that you pay three tolls to get from downtown Richmond to the hotel
Plus: This hotel occupies a beautiful old brick building. We appreciated the choice of a decent hotel with comfortable beds that is also pet friendly - thank you Best Western.
Staff is kind, helpful and breakfast choices good.
Minus: Found 2 live roaches in my room. Notified staff who were willing to relocate however no other rooms were available. Suggested construction workers were likely culprits for bringing bugs into room.
Plus: Clean room great breakfast
Minus: Lady checking us in was little rude other than that other staff was very nice
Plus: It was clean and functional. Wake up call came on time.
Minus: Outside entrance not locked at night, needs renovation, old noisy window AC units.
Plus: The room was clean and spacious and the bed was very comfortable!
Minus: We could easily hear people talking in the next room.
Plus: Easy and good
Minus: There are two buildings
Plus: Nice public spaces
Plus: Continental breakfast was GREAT!!!
Plus: In town for a wedding. Booked 3 rooms for extended family. Well pleased with rooms especially double queen w/sleeper. Breakfast was very good and above typical fare.
Plus: We stayed in a king suite and our room was enormous and very clean. The staff were all very kind, and no complaints about the breakfast or dining room, either. We would stay there again.
Plus: I did not stay at the motel. I paid for rooms for family members visiting for Thanksgiving.
They didn't have anything positive to say, except that the single room with two double beds that they all had to stay in was okay.
Minus: The reservation was for two rooms, three people. The motel only reserved one room. It was a late check-in and the desk clerk couldn't handle the mistake. The guests offered to all stay in the one room. However, I don't believe the motel was completely booked.
My father, one of the guests, recommended I not use the motel again. He likes cheap, so for him to say that is telling.

Plus: Staff was friendly and accommodating. Room was very clean and comfortable. The location was perfect for our needs. Close to what we wanted to see but out of the way. Great all around.
Minus: Nothing I didn't like
Plus: Almost everything..
Minus: I asked for a copy of my billing and was told that I had made the booking online so no copy.I was reading
the information in my room and it mentioned the possibility of having swim wear available when I asked at the desk the girl was lost or should I say clueless as to what I was talking about.
Plus: Very quiet
A lot close by
Plus: Clean and comfortable! Nothing smelled or looked dirty. The free breakfast included eggs, bacon and waffles, which was unexpectedly nice.
Minus: Wish the blackout curtains could pull shut, but only the sheer curtains went all the way across the window. We had an infant, so extra darkness would have been nice.
Plus: Guarenteed stay - no need call if you're checking in late, black out curtains, hot breakfast included until 10 a.m. with a great pastry/waffle & beverage selection.
Minus: ADA compliant bathroom door swung in crowding what would have been an otherwise large bathroom, the eggs were bland & there was no hot sauce or cheese to make them more palatable, the bacon was oddly excessively smoke flavored.
Plus: Everything was great!
Minus: I could here the guest using the restroom upstairs.
Plus: Great location, clean, higher end finishings, friendly staff.
Minus: Breakfast left a lot to be desired.
Plus: It was clean overall and the room was spacious. Good location.
Minus: The radiator was very loud and seemed to come on about every 20 min. My mom said the same thing about her room (before I even mentioned it). Also the wifi signal in our room was weak and often I had trouble staying connected.
Plus: I never made it there. Trip was cancelled.
Plus: Easy check in. Decent breakfast.
Minus: Absolutely worthless internet. Apparently this has been a problem for months. A crucial feature in any hotel and owners refuse to fix. We were connected to tech support who ran us through the paces which did nothing. Constant signal fluctuations and drop offs. Would never have wasted our money if we knew their was basically no usable internet service.
In addition key cards repeatedly failed. At times we had to make 3 trips back and forth to get a working key card. Front desk blamed in on cell phones.
Obv. the owners of this Wingate franchise went with the lowest bidders on all services. Shame. Always had good experiences with Wingates until this one.
Plus: The room was clean and the cleaning staff great
Minus: The Desk person was very very annoying and unprofessional
Plus: Personalen var vänlig och tillmötesgående. Rummet var mycket rent och bekvämt. Läget var perfekt för våra behov. Nära vad vi ville se men ut ur vägen. Utmärkt runt omkring.
Minus: Inget jag gjorde inte gillar

Plus: Parking is way too expensive but guess that's how you keep room rates down. HATE paying that much for parking
Plus: Location to the convention center is excellent with the sky walk. The staff was outstanding on all fronts.
Minus: You really have to pay $15 a day for Internet? Is Marriott the last major chair stuck in the 20th century?
Plus: Staff was very courteous.
Minus: I chose the wrong time to come kids were running up & down the hall screaming.

Plus: The staff was great and the room was always clean.
Minus: The breakfast was always the same wish they could change it up a bit.
Good location. Lots around.
Plus: Breakfast was great. Dinner was also provided but nothing communicated that ahead of time. Desk and food staff were excellent.
Minus: Dinner was also provided but nothing communicated that ahead of time. Rooms were older. Fireplace was wood-burning ... not really usable unless you were prepared, so not worth the booking.
Plus: Privacy and quiet
Minus: Rooms could be cleaned a little more thoroughly example under the bed
The hotel is about a mile from the intersection of I95 and I64 - simple to find and close to downtown and everything else. The hotel is half a block off Broad Street, a major thoroughfare. Be sure and turn right when you get on to Broad and drive a couple of miles, and you will find wonderful Indian, Moroccan, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese restaurants and more. Don't settle for Red Lobster and Olive Garden. Just a couple of miles to the north is the Superb Lewis Ginter Botanic Garden, which ahs not only gorgeous flowers but also a very fine restaurant. Also be sure and park near the Virginia Museum of Art and then walk around the streets of the 'Fan,' a district of the city where streets are lined with interesting houses and front yards full of flowers. It is a wonderful area. The hotel is within five minutes of all of this by a shortcut which the staff will describe for you.
Plus: This hotel has everything good going for it: excellent location, bid rooms/suites with large kitchen, living room, bedroom, and large bathroom, very helpful staff, large delicious breakfast buffet included, quiet. We loved it.
Minus: Everything was very fine; we have no negative e reactions at all.
I was pleasantly surprised in every aspect by my stay at the Residence Inn. I had a second floor room. There was no noise of any kind throughout the duration of my stay, which was wonderful. I used the fitness facility every day during my stay. The machines were high-quality and each had their own tv screens, in addition to the large mounted flatscreen in the fitness room. They offered complimentary Gold's Gym guest passes, but the fitness room fulfilled my needs for my three-day vacation.I did not eat breakfast at the hotel, but I did grab a piece of fresh fruit every morning, and the breakfast spread looked delicious and provided great variety.The housekeeping staff worked around my comings-and-goings. Everything was immaculately clean. The room has been updated with the latest appliances and decor. It really felt more like an apartment than a hotel room. The bed in the room was comfortable and clean. We used the sofa bed for a couple nights for my friend who lives in town, and it was a nice mattress as well.
Plus: Everyting was updated, from the kitchen to the bedroom. It really felt like a new apartment.
Minus: Would have liked some free weights in the fitness room.

Minus: The cleaning ruined it for me. The bathroom was poorly cleaned before I got there and during my stay. Multiple issues with this prompted me to write a review. I'm hoping they correct this issue moving forward.

Plus: Great hotel was very clean and the staff was very friendly I would love to stay here again
Minus: The room was a regular sized room , expected a bigger room for the price ge
Plus: Nothing this time.
Minus: Even with Platinum status, I did not get a high floor as requested. The floor lobby was noisy past midnight every night. A couple was given keys to a room occupied by another couple on my floor - that created drama in the middle of the night. There was cockroach in my bathroom. The HVAC made noise when running.
Plus: I got an upper-floor room and the river view was top notch. The staff were courteous and helpful. It was walking distance to the restaurants in Shockoe Slip.
Minus: The towel in the shower was dirty - as in, big black streak across it as if it were used while working on your car, and the streak was on the front-facing side of the towel on the rack. I haven't seen that in all my travels before. The other towels in the room were fine but that one was a negative surprise. The room itself was only okay and quite outdated. The parking garage was very tight, hard on two-way traffic, crowded so you had to go up and up to find a spot, and expensive.
Plus: Check in fast
Minus: Common areas shabby and not comfortable, lady's room not clean
Plus: Desk staff were very friendly. View from upper floors is nice.
Plus: Good position
Minus: Found the room tatty, black wallpaper under sink, hairdryer fallen off wall, whole place needed up dating
Plus: Staff very friendly and helpful. Great shuttle service around town so I did not have to worry about parking while on a tight schedule.

Plus: Extremely professional and welcoming staff
Minus: Really nothing

Minus: Nothing, I loved everything!
Plus: I was most impressed with the cleanliness of my room and bathroom. It is so nice to arrive to a clean room after a long day of travel. The room was also spacious. It is also nice to have a complimentary breakfast, although the quality of the food was not impressive to me.
Plus: Staff was excellent
Minus: The elevator didn't work,the toilet paper holder was falling off and the shower rod was loose and hanging down so the shower curtain would not stay shut. Wi-Fi was slow and the TV was not HD
Plus: Clean and felt like home
Plus: Not a lot of people in the hotel
Minus: No one was working the front desk when we got there. Had to wait 10 minutes before someone showed up. Hallways smelled bad.
Plus: The pleasant experience with check-in.
Minus: Too many children running loose in the halls and in the morning breakfast.
Plus: Front desk and staff were very friendly. The rooms and beds were clean and comfortable. Complimentary breakfast was standard and exactly what you would expect. Hotel had a great location for the price. Great price for business or value travel.
Minus: The room was still undergoing cleaning upon check in so I'm not sure if they paid attention to their own schedule or not. It made rather inconvenient to move stuff back into the car and then back into the room 10 mins later. Just to find the floor wet from the steam cleaner. It would have been much easier if they had cleaned the room prior to our check in time.
Plus: Jag gillade allt. Alla var så vänlig och professionella och rummet var rent och hela hotellet var mycket trevligt.
Minus: Ingenting, jag älskade allt!
Plus: Rent och kändes som hemma
Plus: Inte mycket av människor i hotellet
Minus: Ingen arbetade receptionen när vi kom dit. Fick vänta i 10 minuter innan någon dök upp. Korridorerna luktade illa.

Sidwell Friends School - Middle School Addition
master plan + site design | washington, dc
Andropogon’s Master Plan & Site Design at Sidwell Friends School included a central courtyard with a constructed wetland designed to utilize storm and wastewater for both ecological and educational purposes. Andropogon’s plan integrated water management solutions into the landscape, inextricably linking the building to its site. The wetland becomes a “working landscape”; using biological processes to clean water while providing students with a vivid example of how such systems work in nature.

A federal judge yesterday dismissed a lawsuit contending that gun makers are responsible for killings because they allow handguns to be channeled to criminals, the New York Times reported. The case was filed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The judge said New York law required that an organization like the N.A.A.C.P. prove that it suffered particular harm that was different from the harm suffered by the public at large
Judge Jack B. Weinstein of Brooklyn also concluded that carelessness and lack of precautions by some in the firearms industry foster an illegal market in handguns. “The evidence … demonstrated that defendants are responsible for the creation of a public nuisance,” Weinstein said. He added that gun makers and distributors could sharply limit gun violence “voluntarily and through easily implemented changes in marketing and more discriminating control of sales practices.”
A trial in the case ended with a jury decision favorable to the industry, but the jury’s role in the case was merely advisory. A similar case also before Weinstein that was filed by New York City three years ago may now become the pivotal test of the viability of suits against the gun industry, because the legal barrier that blocked the association would not apply to the city.
Lawrence G. Keane, the general counsel of the National Shooting Sports Foundation, an industry group, said the judge’s suggestion that the industry could be held responsible for gun deaths caused by criminals was “highly offensive and outrageous….It’s like saying G.M. is responsible for drunk driving.”

Author has written 20 stories for Doctor Who, Lie to Me, NCIS, Firefly, Stargate: SG-1, and Castle.
Doctor Who breaks my heart.
And then stomps it into little pieces.
Because it's about the most incredible man, with the most incredible people, and just when you've come to love them...
They change. Or are left behind. Or lose their memories. Or die.
But I can't let go.
Because the Doctor is worth the monsters.
Doctor Who: Tonight's the Night
This is a short scene set on the TARDIS that gave the winner of a design-a-monster competition the chance to appear on Doctor Who. And it is absolutely, amazingly hilarious. John Barrowman and David Tennant guest star. After watching the scene, make sure you stick around for when the winner is first given a tour of the TARDIS. There is a surprise...
It's seven minutes long. You will laugh out loud. And then you will cry cold tears of envy that there is an ordinary person in the world who got this opportunity.
Worlds in Conjunction by Marylane
This was one of the very first Doctor Who stories that I read, and it remains one of the few that left me staring at my computer screen, in awestruck wonder, feeling like the world was suddenly a different place.
It's beautiful and heartbreaking and amazing. Read it. Right now. You'll be glad you did.
“Why us? You seem to have a decided preference.”
If you're wondering where the name Pelman comes from, it's the name of the lead character from the book trilogy Pelman the Powershaper by Robert Don Hughes. This is an amazing fantasy series written in the late '70s through early '80s and it's definitely worth a read.
Stories shouldn’t show us what is real. They should show us what is true.
Death Blows in Fanfiction
1. Authors apologizing about their summary...in the summary. If you're already apologizing there, why in the name of Rassilon would I want to read your story.
2. Authors apologizing for their story...in their story. We've all seen this. It goes something along the lines of "Yeah, m story is so bad. But plz reveiw !!
3. Author notes...that are practically longer than the story itself. If it's absolutely vital to understand what you've written-put it in the story; trying to explain everything in the footnotes is a sign that you're not doing your job as an author. If it's still an absolutely vital piece of information that for some reason can't be put in the story-put it at the end, so people who don't want to read it don't have to. You are allowed a note of introduction at the beginning of a multi-chaptered story.
4. Shamelessly begging for reviews/Threatening not to post if you don't get reviews. Yes, I like reviews as well. Yes, I will ask for comments/critiques on my stories, although not all the time. But reviews are not a right. And you should be confident enough in your writing that reviews don't make or break you. If you continue writing, and your stuff is good enough, people will notice.
5. The wanton destruction of grammar, plot, characterization and other trademarks of good writing. Sometimes I think that fanfiction.net is inhabited by a bunch of Twilight Zone people who live in a world in which there are NO BOOKS. Because while I am certainly not the best writer out there, I've read enough to know that there are certain standards that should be followed in order to make a piece of writing intelligible. Just because you're "doing it for fun" is no excuse not to make sure your writing is up to snuff. Have some pride, man.
6. Song Fics. Enough said.
7. The appearance of body zombies. Characterization is king, people. Fanfiction is, at its heart, an attempt to transcribe characters that we know and love onto the written page. If all you're doing is using their name and physical description...something's wrong. Everything doesn't have to be canon, but everyone does have to be in character. This is perhaps the most challenging aspect of writing fanfiction. If you're not willing to at least make an attempt at keeping characters in line with their actual portrayals, then you're better off writing original fiction.
8. Stories under 1000 words. Note the word "stories". A story is a self-contained idea with a plot. Drabbles are an entirely different matter. And this is not to say that writing a story that is under 1000 words is impossible...you just have to be very, very good to pull it off. And those less-than-1000-words need to be very, very well chosen.
9. Abandoned Stories. Yes, there are exceptions to every rule. And perhaps I'm expecting too high a standard of professionalism from this site. But if you are going to post a multi-chaptered story, and it is not completely written when you first start posting, you better at least have a good outline of where everything is going. No matter how talented you are, a story will always be better if there is a master plan guiding it. I was able to do a substantial amount of foreshadowing in my story Memories because I knew what was going to happen. It makes for more depth, which equates to a higher quality story. Themes also grow out of knowing the complete storyline and knowing what is going to be important.
10. Excessive Reliance on Dialogue. One of the first "cues" that determines whether I take the time to read a story (this applies more to multi-chaptered works) or not is the amount of dialogue the author uses. If I click on a story and it largely consists of dialogue, I probably won't read it. Why? The first rule of writing is to show NOT tell. Good writers captivate you; they make you forget that you're reading words on a page, all with their words. Style counts. Dialogue on its own is not nearly enough to write a good story. Character's thoughts and feelings, physical descriptions, actions, settings, and other descriptions are the glue that holds a story together. And the best authors mix these together in a magical way to create something that feels real.
This list will be added to when I have more time. Feel free to e-mail me your own suggestions. Or just commiserate.
Five Movies You Probably Haven’t Seen (But Really Should)
1. The Scarlet and the Black- Gregory Peck as a (Irish) Vatican Priest rescuing escaped POW’s and Christopher Plummer as the Gestapo leader trying to stop him. What’s not to love?
2. The Iron Giant- You’ve heard of 'The Incredibles'? This is by the same guy, and it’s possibly even better. A giant robot crashes to earth and is discovered by a young boy named Hogarth Hughes. But since it’s the middle of the Cold War, government agents are awfully anxious to learn what that mysterious light in the sky was…
3. Searching for Bobby Fischer- It’s a sports movie…about chess. Great acting, great script, great characters, great cinematography. And a cute little boy who you can’t help but love. With the added bonus of: Tony Shaloub! As a grumpy chess player!
4. Galaxy Quest- Okay, you might have seen this one. But if you haven’t, you should. A group of actors from the television show Galaxy Quest are mistaken for a real alien-fighting crew and taken to outer space. Probably the funniest movie I have ever seen, the pacing on this one never, ever slows down. It’s just one laugh-filled ride every single minute. Hey, this movie also has Tony Shaloub in it!
5. The Winslow Boy- If you’re one of those people who enjoy telling others how much you love to read Dickens and listen to classical music, then this movie is for you. But even if you aren’t, this is the best movie I have seen examining the issues of Truth and Honor. A boy is expelled from a naval academy for (allegedly) stealing five shillings. His family risks everything to prove that he is innocent. Plus, they’re British!
The Only TV Shows I Have Ever Become Addicted To (in time order of addiction)
1. Hogan's Heroes- A show about a group of POW's running a sabatoge and rescue operation under the German's noses during WWII- and it's a COMEDY! That's pure television gold right there. Plus, the Hogan's Heroes Fanfiction.net page is probably the most civil, interactive, classy community on the entire site.
2. Star Trek: The Next Generation- Watching the first two seasons, I'm always amazed this show survived because some episodes were so bad. (The Last Outpost, anyone?) But watching the last five seasons, I'm so, so glad it did.
3. Stargate: SG-1- This show is so cool because it takes place during the present time. Everything's the same as in our world, except for the tiny addition of a stone ring that allows people to travel through worm holes to other planets. Plus, it's snarky!
4. Monk- Monk is actually the show I consider closest in theme to Doctor Who. When you've got an OCD detective who loses his wife to a car-bomb, and then spirals out of control before gradually beginning to solve crime again, all with the intent of eventually finding his wife's murder, the themes of loss, and loneliness, and pain are pretty prevalent.
5. Psych- Join Shawn Spencer, the fake psychic-detective, and his friend Gus. Laugh. A lot. And always remember to ask yourself, "Are you a fan of delicious flavor?"
6. Chuck- Let's see. Chuck is a drama, comedy, thriller, spy, action, romance, mystery television show. The only thing that comes close is "Princess Bride." Chuck is an ordinary guy who accidentally gets the entire cache of government secrets downloaded into his brain. Yikes!
7. Doctor Who- Nothing else like it. And that's all I have to say.
8. Lie to Me- Two words: Tim Roth.
Books You Probably Haven't Read (But Really Should)
1. The Attolia Series by Megan Walen Turner- Follow the adventures of a thief named Eugenides, as he gets caught up in the political manueverings between the countries of Sounis, Eddis, and Attolia. A fantasy series set in a landscape reminiscent of ancient Greece, you read the first book, and go, "Oh, that was pretty exciting. And a decent read at that." You read the second book, and go, "Whoa! I did not see that one coming." You read the third book, and go, "AAAAHHH! THAT WAS SO GOOD! I WANT TO READ IT AGAIN RIGHT NOW!"
2. The Sparrow/Children of God by Mary Doria Russell- Father Emilio Sandoz is perhaps an unlikely character to grace the science-fiction backdrop of these novels. Yet to call them sci-fi is like calling The Lord of the Rings fantasy: superficially true, but in both cases the stories transcend the genre. These books are hauntingly beautiful. They make you think, they make you feel, and at times they make you weep. The mark of a good book is how firmly it entrenches you in the world it creates, and in this respect The Sparrow and Children of God are remarkably compelling.
3. City Watch Series by Terry Pratchett- Okay, you might have read these, but Sam Vimes is too good a character to not include these books on the list. The series starts with Guards, Guards! and is currently up to Thud, and each book just keeps getting better. How can Terry Pratchett take a fantasy series set on an imaginary world called Discworld and turn it into the best analysis of human nature I've ever seen?! It's like he has a magic microscope that connects straight to the human soul.
4. Elantris by Brandon Sanderson- Brandson Sanderson has to be the best new fantasy author to hit the market in the past couple of years. His stories are awesome, his characters are great, and man does he churn out the pages. He's the author who was chosen to write the last Wheel of Time novel, if you're familiar with that series. Anyways, if you want to read really epic page-turners, with really original magic systems, that fully emerse you in a world, and have you re-reading each book to pick up all the things you missed the last time you read it, then Sanderson is your guy.
5. Cyrano de Bergerac by Edmond Rostand- This is a French play, and make sure you get the translation done by Brian Hooker because it's the best one out there and is considered one of the best English translations ever done. This play is awesome. To quote the synopsis, "Set in Louis XIII's reign, it is the moving and exciting drama of one of the finest swordsmen in France, gallant soldier, brilliant wit, tragic poet-lover with the face of a clown." Basically Cyrano is this super-awesome-tragic guy who refuses to compromise on anything.
6. One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovitch by Alexander Solzhenitsyn- Written in Russian (kind of obvious given the names), make sure to get the translation done by Ralph Parker. Solzhenitsyn has to be one of the best Russian writers of all time, and that's saying a lot. This book, just as the title says, takes you through a single day in Ivan's life. His life in a Gulag, a Russian political prisoner camp. And you become emersed in it. Solzhenitsyn's genius is allowing you to experience exactly what it was like living under Stalin. And he writes from personal experience- Solzhenitsyn spent eight years in a labor camp because he "allegedly" made a derogatory remark about Stalin.
7. Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy by Gary Schmidt- Actually, you should just read every book Gary Schmidt has written. Because he's just that good. If you like the tone and style of the stuff that I've written, then you'll like Schmidt because he does what I do, but much, much better. And he's the best author I've ever read for making you feel exactly what his characters are feeling. I never ever cry while reading books, but I did when I read this one. Because Schmidt's writing is just that powerful.
I'll add more later.
"I always think the more you emphasize "lonely Doctor," the more you come back to what the heart of the series is now, which is a man, traveling through time and space, in a box."
-Russell T. Davies

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The friends and family of a man who died after being tasered by police remembered him Sunday night, just a few hundred feet from where he lost his life.
Nearly one hundred people gathered in the parking lot of the Woodlawn Light Rail Station to remember Lareko Williams.
Williams, 21, called Reko by family, died Wednesday at the Lynx Station on Old Pineville Road near Woodlawn Road. Someone reported a man beating up a woman, and police said when Officer Michael Forbes arrived, he witnessed the attack and yelled at Williams to stop.
Police said Williams ran and Forbes deployed his taser, after which Williams was unresponsive. Forbes called Medic, but Williams died.
Williams s father addressed the crowd as candles flickered. My son wasn t perfect, but my son had a good heart, he said.
Williams s troubled life was a recurring theme of his family s remarks.
Sometimes he made you so mad you want to wring his neck -- but you wring it in love, said his aunt.
No one spoke specifically of the details surrounding Williams s death, but they referenced it as a warning for others, and how they respond to police.
When you re doing what you're doing, they're not going to hesitate to do what they gotta do, said family friend Otis Howie. Don't be foolish. When they say stop, stop... because there ain't no coming back from where he's at.
Williams s ex-girlfriend, Lenice Brown, said Williams had come over to her house Wednesday to comfort her as she grieved over a friend. She said Williams left to go to work, and was at the Lynx station with his sister and his girlfriend when he died.
But despite the tension, Williams s family prayed for peace.
If you got a grudge, forget them, said Lameka Jackson, because four people have been killed in a week.
Williams s mother was too distraught to speak, but did hold the microphone for a moment to say, I love him.
Williams s family is calling for a complete investigation, and wants to review the security video captured on the light rail station s four cameras.
Police are investigating the incident as an in-custody death and also doing an internal investigation. Officer Forbes is on paid administrative leave.

Still Flyin' : On A Bedroom Wall
On A Bedroom Wall seeks to present a more sleek and serious incarnation of Still Flyin’. The record charts another intriguing step in the band’s subtle metamorphosis, one ushered in over the years since the release of their debut album.
This time around they’ve tweaked their ham-jamming tendencies to produce a more intimate venture. Still Flyin’s fun-loving expertise of the past is conspicuously absent for the most part and any brushes with the band’s previous efforts (see: Spiritus and Candlemaker) are brief at best. Big Trouble In Little Alabama ranks as one of the LP’s finest tracks, re-establishing the band’s credentials as an indie-pop outfit. ‘I’ll never know just why I feel this way. There’s something in my bones I want to say,’ expounds FRONTMAN. It’s a neat hook, but more to the point, it deftly illustrates the album’s inherent tension. It’s an odd fit for Still Flyin’ to sound tentative and vaguely anxious but polished.
The nature of the band’s evolution emerges the foremost point of contention here. Their direction is intriguing and has yielded a solid and consistent enough album, though one not nearly as punchy nor as irresistible as its predecessors. Compared to its fun pick-and-mix older brother Neu Ideas, it can feel a little limited at times. Overall, On A Bedroom Wall earns a mild recommendation as a result, citing separation anxiety from the Still Flyin’ of yesteryear.

In a 26-minute interview with Karan Thapar for The Wire, Dr Khamis Elessi, a specialist in pain management and rehabilitation at the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, described in graphic detail the conditions in the Shifa hospital, and in Gaza City, where it is located.
He was speaking from Gaza City in the northern Gaza Strip, an area that Israel insisted must be vacated two weeks ago.
He said the hospital has a capacity for just a few hundred patients, but at the moment, it’s sheltering in excess of 20,000 people. He said patients are lying in the corridors and in the halls. He said anesthesia is available only for the most serious cases. For many others, operations are happening without anesthesia. He said the hospital has run woefully and desperately short of medicines.
Elessi said there is no electricity at all and the hospital is working on generators. He added that there’s only fuel for another 20 hours or so. The oxygen-making plants are very close to stopping the work completely. Water is in acute shortage and they only have a bottle a day.
He said that patients requiring renal dialysis cannot receive it. Patients requiring ventilators or babies in incubators will in all likelihood die when fuel runs out and the generators stop.
He said at most, doctors can have a bath once every five days. Because of the crowded conditions, the danger of disease and epidemic is steadily growing. Skin infections are spreading even within the hospital and you can hear children and patients coughing all the time.
Speaking about the conditions in Gaza City, Elessi said many people have been trapped under rubble, but because they cannot be rescued, they have been left to die. He gave graphic details of the buildings that have been bombed and collapsed and the rubble that lies all along the roads. There is no garbage collection.
He also gave graphic details of queues lining up for bread and water, and people often waiting for hours before they get what they want.
Elessi said the morale amongst doctors is high despite the trauma they are living through. But they are very scared for their family and children.
In an eloquent but heart-rending appeal to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Elessi said: “Mr. Modi, use your influence to stop this war and prevent innocent women and children being killed.”
Elessi says he believes if Prime Minister Modi exercises his influence, it can stop the war. He also said: “We want to live in peace side by side with the Israelis,” adding that “we are all cousins. We all come from the same Prophet.”

Highest quality and efficiency standards are characteristic trademarks of WOLFF cranes. This also holds true for the WOLFF 6020 clear which was introduced in 2017 and continues the success story of its predecessor, the WOLFF 6015 clear. The newest member of the WOLFF clear family in the 140 tm range includes technical modifications, offering the customer highest degrees of variability, flexibility and safety.
Due to continuously increasing demands on tower cranes and ever more complex challenges faced on construction sites, WOLFFKRAN decided to completely overhaul the successful WOLFF 6015 clear. Major improvements of its successor, the WOLFF 6020 clear, include an increased tip load capacity and the integration of numerous design details of the latest WOLFF clear models. The technical upgrade has proven its worth: like its predecessor, the WOLFF 6020 clear is in great demand among customers, especially in the DACH countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland).
Two versions offering remarkable performance
The flat-top saddle jib has been available for customers since September 2017. It is offered as the 6-ton version WOLFF 6020.6 clear and the 8-ton version WOLFF 6020.8 clear, with three different tower connections per version. Compared to its predecessor, the 6-ton version can lift 2.0 tons instead of 1.5 tons at the tip at a 60-meter jib radius, while the tip load capacity of the 8ton version was increased from 1.5 tons to 1.8 tons. Like the WOLFF 6015 clear, both versions are designed for pure 2-fall operation.
A feature that is particularly worth mentioning is the 28 kw hoist winch Hw 628.1 FU installed in the WOLFF 6020.6 clear allowing for even faster working times with partial load speeds of up to 108 m/min. In the 8-ton version, WOLFFKRAN relies on the tried and tested 45 kW hoist winch Hw 845 FU.
Efficiency and customer demands as top priority
In line with the company’s design principles of keeping things as simple as possible, the WOLFF engineers redesigned the trolley by replacing the rollers with wheel flanges used until then by rollers without wheel flanges and a guide roller on the jib, thus optimizing the run of the trolley. The connection of the lower belt of jib was also redesigned to optimize the transfer of forces on the jib. This allows for the use of smaller, more practical bolts, which makes the assembly easier.
The WOLFF 6020 clear also convinces by offering customers more flexibility. Since the counterweights are no longer included as standard in the basic crane package or the jib extensions, the customer can use counterweight blocks from his existing WOLFF fleet, or order these separately as required, which is a decisive advantage economically seen. In terms of variability, the 6020 clear does not break with the tradition of its predecessor, as it is available with three different tower connections. It can therefore be connected to the narrow UV 15 tower system (external dimension of 1.5 m × 1.5 m) as well as to the wider towers TFS 20 and UV 20 (both 2.0 m × 2.0 m). Inspired by customer feedback, the WOLFFKRAN engineers fitted the counter jib with transport aids in the form of a special support structure to securely hold up to three jib sections on the counter jib during transport. Further, the counter jib was fitted with new railings that are suitable for attaching safety harnesses thus improving the safety for technicians working on the counter jib. The WOLFF 6020 clear also features the support beams for the easy positioning of the bracing rods that were introduced to the clear models several years ago and considerably facilitate assembly of the counter jib. A maintenance crane with a lifting capacity of up to one ton is optionally available to support maintenance work such as replacing the motor of the hoist winch without the need for an external crane.
Only a top-class package makes a crane a WOLFF
In comparison to the WOLFF 6015 clear, the WOLFF 6020 clear features even more galvanized parts, such as railings, platforms and covers, as well as specially coated bolts to prevent corrosion. The slip ring system – a long standing standard in WOLFF cranes – at the transition point between the tower and the jib permits the trouble-free transmission of electrical signals. The electronic overload protection with WOLFF Boost, the latest generation of frequency inverters in the hoist drive, the anti-collision interface, the hoisting gear with automatic power reduction as well as the remote data transmission system WOLFF Link are technical features that can only be sourced together from WOLFFKRAN.
At bauma, the WOLFF 6020 clear will present itself close to the public: it will stand on the floor and be accessible to the visitors.

At the beginning of 2018 Cooler Master presented a new housing series. The first offspring of this series is called MasterBox Q300L and is a spacious mini tower for µATX mainboards with a modular design. At the beginning of April 2019 Cooler Master introduced the bigger brother of the Q300L. This tower is called the MasterBox Q500L and even supports ATX mainboards without increasing the dimensions of the body. This was taken over from the Q300L and only the interior was slightly restructured. The Cooler MasterBox Q500L is only available in black and costs € 76.32 *.
Whether this price is justified for the Cooler MasterBox Q500L and how it generally works, we will find out for you in this review.

Scope of Delivery
The Cooler MasterBox Q500L comes well and safely packed in a brown cardboard box with black lettering and is wrapped in normal Styrofoam. The Plexiglas side window was covered with a protective film on the outside to protect it from scratches. Unfortunately, the inside has no further foil. The supplied accessories were fastened in a transparent plastic bag inside the housing with a cable tie. This bag contains all important screws, ten black cable ties and an illustrated manual. Cooler Master also includes a screwdriver attachment for the spacers and eight plastic bolts.
Finally, the pre-installed housing fan and the pre-assembled spacers are included in the scope of delivery.
Externally, the Cooler MasterBox Q300L and the MasterBox Q500L can hardly be distinguished from each other. But let’s start this review with a look at the front. This is characterised by an attractive geometric pattern. However, this pattern is not on the steel body, but was printed on the magnetic dust filter. Behind the filter, the steel body, which has been drilled with numerous holes, can be reached directly. These allow a variable placement of possible fans or the PSU mount. To prevent the dust filter mat from slipping, Cooler Master has attached small rubber buffers to the corners.
A jump to the lid section shows an identical structure as in the front. The perforated steel is covered by an identical dust filter and held in place by the rubber elements, so there is not much more to say about the lid.
The left side is characterized by a large acrylic window. Four flat steel knurled screws are used for fastening. In addition, the manufacturer has equipped the left side of the housing with the I/O panel. There are two USB 3.0 ports, ports for microphone and headphones as well as two buttons for power and reset. The right side panel is completely made of steel and is also fastened with four knurled screws. However, these have a rubber edge. This should enable the housing to be set up horizontally if required.
When looking at the underside there was a first disappointment. This was also equipped with a dust filter, but in contrast to the other dust filters this is unfortunately not magnetic. Instead, many small rubber elements are used for locking. Compared to the other dust filters, the removal is much more complicated here. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has also saved some money on the feet. These are made of a slightly soft plastic and are not straight high. If fans are installed in the floor, the case should not be placed on a carpet.
At the back of the Q500L it will be somewhat unusual. You can see seven slots for expansion cards, the mounting location for the pre-installed case fan and the plug for the power cable. What is missing, however, is the space for the power supply. This is because the Q500L is installed differently than usual. See where that is in the next chapter. However, we would like to make a comment here about the fan opening of the rear fan. At first glance, this appears to be quite restrictive and particularly conceals the outer areas of the fan.
Anyone who has now paid close attention will have noticed that the front, lid and underside are completely identical. Together with the modular I/O panel and the symmetrical acrylic window, the housing can be mounted on the left or right of the desk.
Painting and workmanship and processing quality are OK but not really outstanding. Especially the three hole grids of the front, the lid and the underside can be pressed in quite easily. Also the steel side part could have some more stability. Due to the low weight of 3.8 kg, it is very easy to conclude that Cooler Master has saved material in the design. What a shame!
The interior of the Cooler MasterBox Q500L is very open designed and is a huge chamber. As usual, the mainboard and the expansion cards find space in this chamber. In order to be able to cable the components properly, the mainboard tray was also equipped with several cable management openings.
All this meets the standard and does not make the Q500L unique. But what makes this Midi-Tower special and the reason for the small total volume is the mounting position of the power supply. This is located to the right of the mainboard and is realized via a modular frame. The cables can be routed to the rear of the mainboard tray via a cable bushing.
In addition to the pre-installed fan in the rear, two fans each with a frame width of 120 mm or 140 mm can be installed in the base and lid. Depending on the power supply unit, a 92 mm or 120 mm fan can also be installed in the front.
Now let’s turn to the back. Behind the mainboard tray, the Q500L offers up to 30 mm space for cables. Together with the tabs for cable ties a proper cable management should be possible. In addition, all the support frames for data media are located on the back. One 3.5″ HDD or two 2.5″ SSDs are supported on each of the two steel frames. These are not an extraordinary number of possibilities, but they should be sufficient for a normal gaming PC.
The paint finish in the interior is fine. In addition, there are no sharp edges on which one could cut oneself. However, like at outer areas, the material thickness could be higher in places.
System Construction in the Cooler MasterBox MasterBox Q500L
Now we come to system installation. As hardware we use a AMD Ryzen 5 1400* on a MSI B350 PC Mate* with 16GB Crucial Ballistix Sport LT grey DDR4-2666*. A GTX 1060 6GB from Gigabte AORUS* is responsible for the image output. The power supply does the non-modular be quiet! Pure Power with 400W. In order to enhance the cabling optically a little bit, single sleeved cable extensions from Phanteks.
Due to the unusual structure of the interior, there is one important point to consider before starting assembly. Before the mainboard can be installed, the power supply frame must first be removed, equipped with the PSU and reinstalled. Then the mainboard can also find its way into the case. If you don’t follow this order, you won’t get the power supply mounted anymore.
Otherwise there were no problems with the installation of the components. The spacers are pre-assembled, the PCI slot bezels are reusable and can easily be unscrewed. Especially impressive is the space behind the mainboard tray. Despite the cable extensions, the 30 mm space enables uncomplicated cabling and a clean end result. Also the cable openings are sufficiently dimensioned and sensibly placed.
Where you need to be a little careful is in the choice of hardware. Although the Q500L supports CPU coolers up to 160 mm in height and graphics cards up to 360 mm in length, the latter only applies if the power supply does not exceed 160 mm in length. The Pure Power 10 used here is 150 mm long and together with the 280 mm long GTX 1060 has caused no problems.
The assembly of the hard disks requires a screwdriver, but is otherwise very simple. Both retaining plates are connected to the body with a knurled screw. To attach the HDDs or SSDs, these disks are removed and the data carriers are attached to them again with normal screws.
Cooler Master equips the Q500L with a fan ex works. It has a black connection cable and rotates at a maximum speed of 1200 rpm. Although it carries some air, it is also clearly audible. The fan opening already mentioned in chapter 3 seems to prove to be a really faulty construction. Although the fan rotates at a full 1200 rpm, relatively little air is moved when installed. We were also able to determine this during the stress test.
For this purpose, Prime95 and Furmark were run for 15 minutes at a room temperature of 18.5 °C and the CPUID HWMonitor was used to determine the temperature of the processor and graphics card. In addition to the standard configuration, a test with two other fans (Fractal Design Venturi HF-12) was also carried out. One fan was installed in the rear, the other in the front under the power supply.
Housing: 100% (Cooler Master)
|CPU: 69 °C
GPU: 67 °C
Housing: 100% (2x Fractal Design Venturi HF-12)
|CPU: 62 °C
GPU: 67 °C
Package: 50% (2x Fractal Design Venturi HF-12)
|CPU: 71 °C
GPU: 69 °C
After completion of the measurements, it is noticeable that the CPU temperature is dropping noticeably due to a fan in the front. But both fans had to run at full speed. This in turn led to a higher background noise. If you reduce the number of revolutions, the temperatures rise again a little. All in all, it seems as if the perforations in the front and in the lid are too restrictive.
Conclusion of the Cooler MasterBox MasterBox Q500L Review
So can we recommend the Coolermaster MasterBox Q500L after this review? Unfortunately, there is no clear answer to this question. The MasterBox Q500L is a compact yet spacious midi tower that supports ATX mainboards and other high-end components despite its slim footprint. Also the cable management is not limited by the small size. What we didn’t like so much are the old side windows made of simple acrylic and the impractical dust filter on the underside. Also the material quality is in places rather comparable with a 30 Euro case. Last but not least there is the rather moderate airflow. If you want to have acceptable temperatures, you have to invest some time in the right fan arrangement.
If you are looking for a case that combines ATX support with a narrow footprint, the Cooler MasterBox Q500L could be a possible candidate. Owners of high-end hardware, however, should prefer a case with better airflow.

It’s been 36 years since the use of the world’s largest car has again hit the headlines. While the most beautiful car we can say is the American Dream and is again formed back to its original beauty. Also in addition to that, it is fully repaired fully and once again becoming trendy on several social media platforms. Also to make a lot of this car broke the former world record and became the world’s longest car. As per the reports on March 1, 2022, the car got the title and was a first bit back in 1986. The famous car builder named Jay Ohrberg, “The American Dream”. As per the sources, the measurement of the car is 100 feet after a few customizations. Truly when many social media users came across this story that we’re really happy to know about the car coming back alive again.
A new record :
Well, this year the beautiful car is 1.5 inches longer. Talking about the reporta, it states that an average regular car is between 12 to 16 feet long. However, talking about the beauty of The American Dream, it has a host of luxury amenities. It also includes a jacuzzi, bathtub, waterbed, mini-golf course, several televisions, and even a helipad. Also very put state that it can hold five thousand pounds of weight. Nevertheless, its length is something that is very difficult to drive on roads.
However it is also difficult to park this amazing car. Although the novelty factor of this legendary car became once abandoned. It was just left in a warehouse and was once never used. Luckily, auto enthusiast Michael Manning found this masterpiece on eBay. He came across the listing for the car. Well, as per the reports by the Guinness World Records, Manning did not have enough money to buy it. However he did convince the corporation to sell the car to him. He also convinced them to let it bring it to New York for restoration and repair. Well, hecompletely repaired the beauty at the automatic teaching museum owned by him. He named the Autoseum.
How the car was repaired again?
Manning also came up with a plan and order to get some community donations. It is for the restoration project. However he did not get that much funds that he required to repair the entire car. In 2019, Michael Dezer, owner of the Dezerland Park Car Museum, came across this story. He brought the car and also contacted Manning. Well, along with Manning, he began the procedure to repair the amazing car. Although the process of long restoration went on for a long time, they did not give up easily. Also the entire money that was spent on the car was approximately around 1.9 crores.
That is, it cost over 2,50,000 dollars. Well, now talking about this amazing car, it is already displaced by the Dezerland Park Car Museum in Florida, USA. how the social media users who came across the beautiful car were left surprised. Well, many of them also praised Manning for making this car once again and creating another record.
Equipped with a swimming pool, golf putting green and a helipad.— Guinness World Records (@GWR) March 10, 2022

Qantas CEO Alan Joyce said he expected the airline’s grounded Airbus A380 fleet to return together with the global market recovery in about three years. Together with Boeing 787s, the aircraft would help the company to recover from the COVID-19 crisis.
“In three years, when the market recovers, the A380s will be profitable,” Qantas Airways Chief Executive Alan Joyce commented during CAPA’s Australia Pacific Aviation Summit on September 2, 2020. “I believe these will fly again.”
Interestingly, Alan Joyce’s prediction for the return of A380 directly contradicts the opinion of Tim Clark, The Emirates CEO, who famously said that the era for superjumbos was over.
“We know the A380 is over, the 747 is over but the A350 and the 787 will always have a place. They may not be ordered soon, they may have orders deferred and pushed back, but eventually, they will come back, and they will be a better fit probably for global demand in the years post the pandemic,” Emirates president Tim Clark said in an interview with the National back on May 5, 2020.
Joyce also believed that Qantas now-stored Boeing 787 Dreamliners would be the right aircraft when the global pandemic ceased. The 787-9s are known for their exceptional cruising range and a good cabin mix of Economy, Economy Plus and Business classes. This would allow the aircraft to operate long-haul international flights without stopovers. Amid the crisis, this would be a great advantage.
In June 2020, Qantas Airways announced its “rightsize, restructure and recapitalize” plan, which included storing 100 aircraft for 12 months or longer.
As of September 2020, most Australian national carriers’ Airbus A380 and Boeing 787-9 fleets are grounded in California’s desert.
The decision to ground the aircraft followed a close to $2 billion financial loss the airline suffered in the quarter starting April 2020.
Qantas currently owns 12 Airbus A380 and ten Boeing 787-9 aircraft, out of which a single Dreamliner is presently in service.
