Q: adjusting angularjs material design data table column width I'm using the old AngularJS Material Design Data Table and would like to know how to adjust the column width.
https://github.com/daniel-nagy/md-data-table
For instance if I wanted to change the 'fat' column in the demo to a fixed width of 40px how would I go about this?
Demo: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/BjvLVJ
There is a fixed padding which seems to be the main problem.
table.md-table.md-row-select td.md-cell:nth-child(n+3):nth-last-child(n+2), table.md-table.md-row-select th.md-column:nth-child(n+3):nth-last-child(n+2) {
    padding: 0 56px 0 0;
}

A: You could use the following css class.
.width-override{
  width:40px !important;
  padding:0px !important;
}

You will need to add it to the th and td tags of the respective column like so.
Fat (g)

{{dessert.fat.value | number: 2}}

Please checkout the below example!
Note: The contents are of width 56px so the column is of that width, you might want to use the same, since we do not want to clip the contents inside the column.

angular.module('demoApp', ['ngMaterial', 'md.data.table'])

.config(['$mdThemingProvider', function ($mdThemingProvider) {
    'use strict';

    $mdThemingProvider.theme('default')
      .primaryPalette('blue');

I am posting marriage and family book giveaways this week. You still have time to enter the last two giveaways. Follow these links to enter: 77 Ways Your Family Can Make a Difference by Penny Zeller, and Mission Possible – Spiritual Covering (Believing for your husband's salvation) by Deborah McCarragher. All winners will be announced on Saturday, December 10th.
This book is great for teenage girls, but I was blessed by it as well. I think we all need to be reminded often how beautiful we are in the eyes of the Lord. Misty did an excellent job comparing how God sees us as opposed to the world's view of beauty.
Captivating and eye opening, this short study equips the reader with confidence in who she is and who she was created to be. Young women today struggle with self-image in almost every area of life. Through real, relatable stories and scriptures to strengthen confidence, this 14-day study is great to do alone or in a small group setting.
**To enter to win The Real You: Daily Readings for Daughters of the King leave a comment below and include your email address. For an ADDITIONAL ENTRY into the drawing, let me know that you "LIKE" Misty's Facebook page. The winner will be announced December 10th.
Girls today need spiritual encouragement. I have a couple of teen granddaughters to whom I'd like to gift The Real You.
Rebekah, thanks for "liking" Misty's page. And thanks for entering.
Ada, I agree. And this would be a great encouragement for your granddaughters.
I love Misty's facebook page :).
Thanks, Sonja:) I'll enter you in twice! Blessings!


Up until about 10 years ago I had 15/20 vision. That means that I saw at 20 feet what most people see at 15 feet.
Now at 51, my vision degradation is palpable—I have to wear reading glasses for any font smaller than 16 points. As a Language Arts teacher and writer who spends most of her time reading, this is incredibly inconvenient. And my reading glasses, anchored around my neck with a lanyard (not unlike the one my grandmother used to wear) is a constant reminder of not only my diminishing vision but my acute inability to keep track of a simple pair of glasses (an embarrassing sign of short-term memory loss).
But about 2½ years ago, right about the same time my physical vision started to diminish, I found out how warped and dirty my spiritual glasses were. Co-dependency, I discovered, had created in me a distorted view of myself and those closest to me and left me with a spiritual vision more like 1000/20.
After 30 months, I think I see myself more clearly the way God does. Sure, the emotional fluctuations of menopause sometimes blur that vision like a bad trip through my high school yearbook. But with these changes, I've had a revelation.
I think God actually has all his "kids"—yes, the entire human race—on a sorta barter system. We just don't figure it out until after we have enough candles on our birthday cake to set off a fire alarm.
See when we're young and spry, we're just flat stupid about ourselves and the world. Sure we have strong and beautiful bodies, but our minds are so full of ourselves we can't see the truth about much of anything. As we age and are humbled by our weakening, wrinkling, graying, and sagging physiques, something miraculous happens—we stop placing so much importance on the externals.
Slowly God begins the old (literally) switcheroo. He trades us the temporary value of the physical for the far costlier value of the spiritual—wisdom and insight of both ourselves and the world around us. Solomon said it was worth more than gold or precious gems. That's why teen-, twenty-, and even thirty-somethings don't really have it. It costs too much and they haven't "paid" for it yet.
So every time I pull out a cloth to clean the goop off my lenses so I can read a book or type up another blog entry on my laptop, I have to remind myself that while my physical vision may be failing, my spiritual vision is getting magnified each day.
I don't know about you, but I think that's a pretty good trade.

Bishop slams martial law extension
A Catholic bishop slammed the extension of the martial law in southern Philippines for another year, warning against the "intoxicating effect" of power.
In an overwhelming number of votes, the lawmakers on Wednesday gave President Rodrigo Duterte a green light to extend the military rule in Mindanao for the whole of next year.
Duterte has asked Congress to extend martial law due to supposed threats posed by communist rebels and Muslim extremists since a five-month conflict ended there in October.
He hinted the possibility of imposing it nationwide should terrorism threat spread and the communist insurgents intensify their attacks.
Manila Auxiliary Bishop Broderick Pabillo, who formerly chaired the Church's social action, justice and peace ministry, said Duterte is "boasting" it again now that he got the support from a "subservient" Congress.
"This is what we get when we toy with power. One is never contented with enough power. It gobbles more power—unless people stand up and voice out—it is enough! This is not right!" Pabillo said.
"Once one has tasted power, it is hard to say it is enough. This is true for Duterte, this is true for the police and this is true for the armed forces," he said.
Duterte declared martial law in Mindanao last May 23 due to attacks by terrorists of the Islamic State-inspired Maute and Abu Sayyaf groups on the Islamic city of Marawi in Lanao del Norte.
The country's worst security crisis in decades killed more than 1,1000 people, mostly militants, and displaced about 350,000 residents.
Creeping authoritarianism
Although Marawi was declared "liberated" last October, military officials said threats remain in Mindanao.
Martial law critics, however, argued that an extension requires actual rebellion; and without it is unconstitutional.
"They give a veneer of legality to martial law but they are making the abnormal normal, the extraordinary ordinary," Pabillo added.
The bishop also warned that the extension is "conditioning the minds" of the people that martial law is alright and normal.
"Authoritarianism is creeping surreptitiousness among us—unless we react and say 'do we really need it?'" said Pabillo.
"We cannot remain silent in front of the machinations of Congress who are acting not as representative of the people but of the one in power. Congress can no longer be trusted that they serve the interest of the people," he said.
'No need for martial law'
Earlier, two other bishops in Mindanao voiced opposition to the martial law extension.
Archbishop Antonio Ledesma of Cagayan de Oro said that another year of military rule could affect the business environment in the region.
"Martial law will only affect the economic standing of Mindanao. There are less investors because of that," he said.
The Jesuit prelate said the security concerns of the government should be handled by the "normal" police and military system. "There is no need for martial law," he said.
Bishop Edwin dela Peña of Marawi also stressed the need to hear the voices of the Maranao people on martial law.
He said that if it had to be extended based on the assessment of the military, it should be limited to areas of tension like Marawi to facilitate the rehabilitation and reconstruction of the city.
"But the people of Marawi themselves should be asked, not me, what is of their best interest," he said.
"As Duyog Marawi, our mission is to accompany the Maranao and be a supporter to their struggles. Theirs is the power to make the decisions," Dela Peña said. CBCPNews

The most important part of hydroponic plant growth is the right one. preparation of the solution. You can relax, then you are mistaken. It is important to note that this is true. Of course, you can't bother with this, but in this case, it will be terribly far from the expected.
In the current environment, most are buying ready solutions, produced by industrial means. It is much easier than prepare a solution Please verify the necessary proportions. However, in the conditions of autonomous existence, preparation of the solution have to do it yourself. This is what our article will be about.
The nutrient solution consists of water, macronutrients and trace elements. It is no additional salts, which greatly simplifies the proportions of micro and macro elements. It is not water that has been distilled since it can be distilled. If, however, you need to use the water or tap water. Concentration preparation of the solution. But we'll talk about it another time.
Nitrogen. The organic component of the organic compounds has been Contained in salts of nitric acids. Shortage – planting leaves Search and lack of lighting – nitrates.
Phosphorus. Need for the normal course of photosynthesis. Especially important in the early stages of development. Contained in various phosphates. Shortage is the leaves of the plant itself, it is slowing down or even stops.
Sulfur. It is necessary for the formation of amino acids and enzymes, and it also participates in the respiratory cycle. Shortage – first the young leaves Begins to die off the root. With a simultaneous lack of oxygen – decomposition of sulfur-containing compounds is possible.
Potassium. The catalyst of the cytoplasm. Shortage – burns out, then it becomes an inter-burn burn. The leaves themselves are dome-shaped bend.
Calcium. It is important that it helps to ensure that it is normal for the pH of cells. Lack – regional burn, twisting of young buds. There is also an accumulation of mucus on the roots.
Iron. Chlorophyll and cellular respiration. Shortage – young buds. Old leaves do not change, because they are already a stock. Complete growth stops completely.
Magnesium. Chlorophyll and high-energy processes. Shortage – green leaves remain yellow. The growth rates are slowing down.
Boron. The formation of growth points. Shortage – die shoots die quickly, leaves grow poorly, ovaries and pollen do not form.
Copper. Photosynthesis catalyst. Shortage – leaves curl upwards, and their edges turn blue. Also observed the death of young shoots.
Manganese. The catalyst of redox reactions. Shortage – between yellow and yellow dots that resemble a mosaic.
Zinc. It is part of the enzymes necessary for certain amino acids. Shortage – interstitial yellowing exclusively in young leaves.
It must be present in the form of a liquid. But as we all know from the school chemistry course, you can stupidly react with each other and give no residue. So, the concentration and method of preparation are to prevent precipitation of precipitation. preparation of the solution. It is the water that has been made. After that, we add 800 ml of water for a large amount of container Then gently add water to a liter. Ideally, no precipitate forms, since the chemical reaction.
It is also extremely important to monitor the pH level. prepared solution. It is a fact that there is a strong oxidation or alkalization of the liquid. It will be possible to observe the results of this process. It is necessary to adjust the pH at each stage.
That is, it can be needed by the plant. There are practically no trace elements there, because preparation of the solution The knob is an ordinary water. But there is no need for any trace elements. However, this need is low calcium.
As for more detailed recipes, It is then fitted to each of the following articles. And, yes, we will tell you about the individual approach. Of course, you can't take advantage of your experience. It will save both time and money.
Fishing – It's not always a funeral time, but it's not a good idea.

Dinosaur JR. – Green Mind – KXCI Classic Pick
DINOSAUR JR. – GREEN MIND
Released February 19, 1991- 25 years ago
Dinosaur Jr.'s fourth studio release sheds their earlier and noisier punk urgency for a slower, more melodic vibe without ditching their trademarked quirky lyrics backed by distorted, crunchy folk-rock-meets-grunge on acid sound. While sometimes overshadowed by their earlier SST releases, Green Mind stands as one of the band's best.
The Classic Pick is a weekly feature at 4pm M-F on The Home Stretch, sponsored by the Good Oak Bar and curated by Kris Kerry. Each Monday at 4pm Kris stops by KXCI's studio to give us insight on this classic album at 91.3FM and kxci.org.
Interesting trivia:
Dinosaur Jr. was formed by J. (Joseph) Mascis (pronounced mass-kiss) in Amherst, Massachusetts, in 1984. Mascis was always the creative force behind the band, playing guitar, performing lead vocals, and acting as primary songwriter. The other founding members were high school friend Lou Barlow on bass and vocals, and Murph (aka Jefferson Murphy) on drums.
After three albums on independent labels earned Dinosaur Jr. a reputation as one of the formative influences on late 80s alternative rock (along with Pixies and Sonic Youth), creative tension led to Mascis firing Barlow, who later formed Sebadoh and Folk Implosion. Barlow was replaced by Mike Johnson for three major label albums (including some tracks on Green Mind). Murph eventually quit the band, with Mascis taking over studio drum duties before "officially" disbanding in 1997. The original lineup reformed in 2005, releasing a few albums thereafter (this line up played at Rialto in 2013).
Green Mind was practically a solo project. J. Mascis produced the album and recorded vocals, guitar, bass, and drums on all but a few songs here. Original band member, Murph, appeared on a few songs along with a few other guest musicians, including Don Flemming of Gumball (guitar, bass and backing vocals).
Green Mind production credit goes to Mascis, however it should be noted the album was co-engineered by Sean Slade and Paul Kolderie at Fort Apache Studios in Cambridge MA. Slade and Kolderie are a production-engineering team whose résumé reads like a "who's who" of late 80s/early 90s alternative rock. They've produced and engineered albums by Radiohead, Pixies, Hole, Uncle Tupelo, Morphine, Lush, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Buffalo Tom, The Connells, fIREHOSE, Tanya Donelly, Throwing Muses, Yo La Tengo, Julianna Hatfield, King Missle, The Lemmonheads, and many others.
Green Mind barely cracked Billboard's top 200, it was very influential and was many peoples first introduction to the band.
Mascis has a very distinctive guitar style that may be referred to as a "distorted and sloppy, yet soulfully genius." His playing has its roots in that of Neil Young, of whom he has drawn comparisons, but other players such as Stephen Malkmus of Pavement and Andy Cohen of Silkworm can be described this way as well.
Green Mind was Dinosaur Jr.'s first major-label release. Dinosaur Jr. was one of the first alternative band, sometimes referred to as college rock, signed to a major label. Other bands in this first wave of indie bands being signed to major labels also includes Sonic Youth, Jane's Addiction, and REM among others.
TUCSON CONNECTION – TWO OF THEM: Two of the first three Dinosaur Jr. albums released prior to Green Mind were released on SST Records (You're Living All Over Me and Bug). SST Records was a small independent label out of Long Beach known primarily for releasing late 80s/early 90s American punk and independent albums (including those from Black Flag, Dinosaur Jr., Minutemen, Hüsker Dü, fIREHOSE, Meat Puppets, Subhumans, Sonic Youth, Buffalo Tom and Descendents among others). TUCSON CONNECTION #1: SST Records was founded by Greg Ginn, Black Flag guitarist and singer-songwriter of Black Flag. Ginn was born in Tucson in 1954. TUCSON CONNECTION #2: Joey Burns, vocalist and one of the founding members of Calexico (with John Convertino of course), was an intern at SST records during the late 80s.
SST releases, You're Living All Over Me and Bug along with their debut release, were recently re-released on Merge Records.
The cover photo on Green Mind – that of a pre-teen girl smoking a cigarette on a beach, was taken by Joseph Szabo, a well-known, Pratt Institute educated photographer. The photo, entitled Pricilla, first appeared in his photo book Almost Grown, published in 1978.
In addition to Dinosaur Jr., Mascis is involved with several other projects, including J. Mascis and the Fog and Witch.
Mascis is 50… Dinosaur Jr. is not in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. They have been eligible since 2010.

Just recently we photographed two Camp Fire Girls uniforms that we have in our collections. Our research for Local History Month of Josephine Cornick Ross, Minnie Wilson Schomber, and Ferol Tibbetts Jess landed us with a common thread – they all participated in Camp Fire.
We discovered this when we were perusing photographs from an album owned by Ruth Johns Anderson (we've blogged about Ruth's son, Rod, and his letters home during WWII here, here, and here.) Imagine our surprise when we discovered a photo of Jo Cornick Ross and Ferol Tibbetts, two women whose paths didn't really cross, seemingly examining and sizing each other up!
Minnie Wilson Schomber was about 5 years old than Ferol and Jo, so she doesn't appear in the photos. But we know that she was a part of Camp Fire because her uniform appears in our collection. Her uniform has many patches, beads and a pin – some of which we can identify and some we can't. The organization of Camp Fire became national in 1912 and the first handbook was published in 1914. It seems that there were general guidelines to creating patches and uniforms and a lot of creativity and personalization was encouraged.
While no doubt most people in Issaquah's paths crossed at one time or another, it's always nice to be able to make a connection between people you're researching. Jo, Ferol, and Minnie all led completely different lives but had very much in common (e.g., never having children.) Camp Fire Girls is just another part of filling in that picture.
For more Camp Fire related records, click here.
In our collection we have about 10 daily journals kept by Ferol Tibbetts Jess written starting in 1923. While the journals contain a lot of basic daily notes (sewing, washing, visiting friends) they also contain wonderful tidbits about what it was like to be a 20-something during the 1920s.
"Bobbed my hair. Like it pretty well. Letter from Mother." – College diaries, Mon, Jan 15, 1923.
We have many pictures of Ferol Tibbetts, some pre-bob and others with her stylish bobbed and marcelled hair. Her exact date of when she cut her hair has allowed us to better date the pictures in our collections.
The earlier pictures of Ferol and her friends all feature the same hairstyle which seems to be a large pouf on top of the head and two small chignons over the ears. We much prefer the bob.
Ferol's chopping of her locks while away at school is something most college-aged women can probably relate to. Luckily, Ferol came of age during a time when women were really changing what they did and said, what they wore, and how they spent their time.
"Went to Renton with Mary and Tillie to get their hair marceled." – Book I, Saturday, February 2, 1924.
Pictures of Ferol with bobbed hair seem different than her earlier pictures – she smiles more and seems genuinely happy.
"6:00am. Been sitting around talking to Walter since 3:45. Sure is a hell of a life I am leading." – Book I, Sunday, July 22, 1923.
One of the commonalities we've noticed between Josephine Cornick and Ferol Tibbets was their posession of personal cameras. In 1888, the Eastman Kodak Company released it's first amateur camera. George Eastman's goal was to make photography "as convenient as the pencil." By the time Josephine Cornick and Ferol Tibbetts were old enough to shop for cameras, there were at least 8 different Brownie cameras available to the public for $4 or less. The more money you had to spend, the larger the variety of cameras available to you.
The transition from studio photography to personal photography not only increased the number of photographic images the average person had as mementos — it increased the amount of information available from each image. Studio portraits required some investment, and families making that investment dressed in their best clothing and turned their best face to the camera. The final photograph was probably stamped with the name of the studio, but little else in the way of identifying or personal information.
Personal cameras changed the way many people recorded their personal history. Instead of dressing up and trooping down to the local photography studio, camera owners could capture images from everyday life that had meaning for them. Looking at a series of snapshots, or an album filled with snapshots, delivers personal information in a way that studio images do not.
Thanks to their snapshots, we can make some guesses about what Josephine and Ferol valued most based on the things they photographed — friends, pets, family members, automobiles. Snapshots were also used to preserve moments of good humor shared among friends. Snapshots also provide information about things we would never learn through studio portraits — like what girls' gym uniforms looked like circa 1915, and how a young lady might have dressed to help with farm work.
And we certainly don't have any studio photographs of swimmers in their swim togs!
The downside of amateur photography is, of course, the amateur behind the lens. Not everyone was adept with the new gadgets, resulting in the occasional botched image.
But even in the case of this image, we can derive information from what Jo has written on the back. Even with the blurring, we can also tell that these four young women are all dressed in trousers.
In 1979, Josephine Cornick Ross was 77 years old and lived at the Issaquah Villa nursing home. A student with a tape recorder interviewed her for a school assignment. More than 30 years later, their 22 minute conversation found its way into the collection of the Issaquah History Museums. This recording is the only narrative we have about Josephine's life that she herself created. Unlike Ferol Jess Tibbetts and Minnie Wilson Schomber, whose letters and journals share details of their lives with us, we have only Josephine Cornick Ross's photographs and brief oral history. For that reason, we have many more unanswered questions about Josephine.
But, there are some things one can surmise even without a pointed narrative, and a fascination with automobiles is one of them.
IN: When the car came, did it take Issaquah a while for very many people to get cars?
JR: Oh, yes. It took quite a while.
IN: Did your family used to travel to Seattle very often?
IN: How long did that take?
JR: Oh, it would take all day practically, by the time we got there and waited for the trolley, and then back again.
Although Jo's family didn't have their own automobile, her collection of snapshots includes photos of at least three different automobiles. They also share footage of a road trip to southern Washington taken with a few friends.

Ferol Tibbets was born November 11, 1902 to George Wilson Tibbetts and Mattie Ray Tibbetts. The Tibbetts line had been in the Issaquah area since 1874 when Ferol's grandparents, George Washington Tibbetts and his wife Rebecca Wilson Tibbetts, relocated here.
Ferol Tibbetts was an only child. Her parents owned an auto shop and were probably considered part of Issaquah's "upper class" society. A year after Ferol graduated high school in 1921 she attended Washington State College (Now Washington State University.) Judging from her diaries of her time there she focused on meeting boys and spending her time having fun. The few mentions of actual academic activities were mostly theater and drama related. She moved back home to live with her parents after one year at college in 1923 – it's unclear whether she ever graduated with any sort of degree.
Our closest connection to Ferol and her life lies in her daily diaries. She began keeping journals during her year in college. When she returns home her journals pick up in simple composition books. Ferol is fairly meticulous in her writings, however she often neglects to use last names which can make identification difficult.
The wonderful thing about these journals is that Ferol began writing these while in her early 20s. And since they begin in the year 1922 we're able to see what "the roaring twenties" were like not only for a 20 year old female, but one who lives and has grown up in Issaquah.
The diaries of hers in our collection continue for at least a decade and we haven't hardly made a dent in reading and cataloging them. We'll continue sharing our discoveries past the window of LHM. Who knows what we will find!
May is Local History month! Local History Month is an opportunity for residents to consider the big themes present in the history of small places. Each community has its own weird, wild and wonderful stories that are unique to that place. Sharing these stories helps connect community members to their place, and also to each other, as public recognition of local history helps to foster local pride, maintain community character, and build a deeper sense of appreciation for the place itself.
This year we are celebrating Local History Month by looking at life through the eyes of three young women who grew up in Issaquah. By coincidence, we happened to be researching all three ladies at the same time. Since they were all of an age, it was impossible not to start comparing them and seeing common themes. All three were born around the turn of the Century and came of age during the early 1920s.
The 1920s brings with it images of flappers, jazz, Prohibition, dancing the lindy, flagpole sitting, silent films. We wondered, how many of these tropes were true of life in Issaquah during the Roaring Twenties?
Well, how many of us really lived like Don and Betty Draper during the 1960s?
So we decided to get to know Ferol Tibbetts Jess, Josephine Cornick Ross, and Minnie Wilson Schomber and find out how they experienced the 1920s. The three were acquainted with each other — and, most likely, with most of the other residents of Issaquah, which was a small town of 1,000 people. They were in many of the same organizations and service clubs together, and even appear in various photos together. All three worked at various times in their lives. None of them had children. They weren't close friends with each other, however, which speaks to their differences.
In order to get to know the ladies, we relied on photographs and documents from our collection, the contents of photo albums belonging to Ruth Johns Anderson and Ferol Tibbetts Jess, Minnie Wilson Schomber's correspondence and diaries, Ferol's diaries, the Issaquah Press and Seattle Times archives, and information from Washington State and King County archives. We'll begin sharing images and information on Saturday, May 4. Stay tuned!
In-depth cataloging of letters, journals and other documents was made possible by a grant from 4Culture. Yet another grant from 4Culture, along with generous support from individual donors, makes it possible for us to scan these items and share them through our Digitial Archives.
May is local history month! All month long, we'll be sharing bits and pieces of Issaquah's collection, as well as tutorials to help you find local history on your own. Enjoy!
Bill Evans was born in Issaquah in 1923 and lived here for most of his life. Both of his parents were from coal-mining families. After serving in World War II, Bill lived in Seattle and went to college at the UW. Bill proved to be a sound and enterprising young businessman, and by the 1950s, he was living in Issaquah and operating his own business. Well-spoken, civic-minded, and forward-thinking, Bill was active in Issaquah's Chamber of Commerce and helped shape the town we know today. Bill died in 2008. This excerpt from Bill's 2006 oral history describes how Bill tried desperately to avoid serving in the Army during WWII.
Although he looks pretty cheerful in this picture, Evans was determined to serve in ANY branch but the Army.
Bill Evans: I tried to enlist. In those days, in 41, Walt [Seil] probably told you that he went to Pearl Harbor right after Pearl Harbor happened. We saw him off on the train to San Francisco because he went down there to catch a ship. …I didn't want to get in the infantry. At the time, there was the Army Air Force and the Navy Air Force. I tried the Army Air Force first.
I passed my mental test. And then, for some reason, they all took the mental test first. I guess to see whether you were as dumb as you look or what. And then they give you the [physical] test. Well, when I was twelve or thirteen, I got scarlet fever. I woke up in the middle of the night, probably two or three in the morning. I remember I turned on my light – I had the bedroom next to my folks' bedroom – and I was covered with blood. This fever had built up so strong that it broke the blood vessels in my nose. I woke up, and I was soaking wet with blood from the fever. Scared the devil out of my mother. …The local doctor up in the bank building, which is now the bicycle shop cauterized the vessels in there with some kind of metal, heated iron, and stopped it.
All it left me with, other than being a little on the puny side, with 20/30 in one eye, and 25/ or 30/ in the other eye. So later on, when I went to join the Air Force, I couldn't get in because they demanded 20/20. So I tried the Navy Air Force. They gave me my mental test first. And then I tried to tell them, "You better check my eyes," "Oh, we'll get to that." And I flunked out there.
Then I went to the Coast Guard, and I flunked out there. Then I went to the Navy, and I flunked out there. All about my eyes, 20/30.
I knew I was dead because I'd been in the State Guard. Teenage kids and old men were in State Guard. The only ones who weren't drafted, or in the service. We wore coveralls, and we'd go out in the fields by Puyallup, and lay in the rain with a shotgun. We'd do close-order drill. … All they did was teach me close-order drill, which you learn in any camp, you know.
I was going into the Merchant Marine because there used to be a butcher shop about two doors down from Fischer's Meats. The father of this guy was in the Merchant Marine during the 30s. His son, who was a year younger than me, Don Finney, got in because of his father. He went from here, to Alaska, to Vladivostok, Russia and then back again. He was home every three months. I didn't know when I'd see home if I got into the Army or something. So I thought, well, hey, that's a possibility. I can be home. And I'd get double pay in Alaskan waters because the Japs had already infiltrated Attu, Alaska and so forth, way up north.
Interviewer: How come you'd get double pay?
BE: By carrying weapons and munitions and so forth. Dynamite. Anything that could blow up your ship.
INT: Oh, so it was extra-dangerous.
I said, "The Navy!" I thought, Boy, there's life yet!
So I went into a back examining room, went through the physical – most of the physical. And the mental, again. And I got to the eye exam. The room had been a classroom, and the charts that you'd close your one eye and look at were at the front of the classroom, hanging over a blackboard. Then you had to go down to the back of the room, turn around and take the eye test. I knew what was going to happen. So, I flunked.
He said, "You stupid jerk. Why do want to get in the Navy?" He'd been in the Navy for so long, he couldn't understand that.
"Let me go back and take it again," I said.
So I was shipped from Fort Lewis to Camp Roberts, California, by Paso Robles. I went right into the infantry. When I get there, I thought, Ohgod, the worst possible thing that could happen to me now has happened to me.
What happened then? Peruse the rest of Bill's oral history to find out. Other stories in his oral history include his early childhood in the coal-mining town, his career as a medic in the Pacific Theatre, and how he fell in love-at-first-sight with his wife on a Seattle bus.
Many of the research requests we receive revolve around questions about where things used to be located, or what the area looked like before. One of the niftiest features of the King County iMap is it's ability to layer different information onto one map. Using iMap, it's possible to look at a current road (and parcel) map superimposed with the 1936 aerial image, to see what changes have occurred in the roads or landscape.
1. Start iMap and locate the property you're interested in (see our previous blog post for more information on how to find a property using iMap).
2. Once you've found the parcel map for your property, take a look at the checkbox options on the left. You can experiment with these options to increase or decrease the amount of information that is layered onto your map. At the bottom of the list is "Imagery." Expand this item so you can see your options. Select 1936 aerial view.
3. Here we see current parcel boundaries laid over a 1936 black and white aerial photograph. See that large property with the two diagonal sidewalks? This is the Issaquah High School in 1936. Today, the Issaquah Community Center is located on this lot.
The Washington State Digital Archives are my favorite free online resource. You can access a broad range of records there, and many of them include an image of the record in question. And did I mention that they are free?
A word of warning: the search is literal, and names are not transcribed with 100% accuracy. Just because you can't find someone on the first try, that doesn't mean they aren't there. Try entering just the first letters of the name you're looking for, and then browsing through the results for a likely match. This works for both first and last names. You can adjust the date range on many searches, also.
1. Marriage records. When we are cataloging photographs with the inevitable notation, "Mr. and Mrs. Frank Franklin," it's so nice to be able to go to WSDA, track down their marriage record, and find out that, yes, Mrs. Frank Franklin also had her very own name. There records are also very helpful when we're trying to figure out how various cousins, aunts and uncles are related, or when trying to unravel the order of multiple marriages. You might also learn something new about whoever you're researching by noting who witnessed the wedding ("stood up for" was how the newspapers often put it), or where the couple was married. In the example at left, George W. Tibbetts, acting as Justice of the Peace, married Jacob Jones, Sr. and Mary Anderson. The witness "R.A.Tibbetts" was Rebecca Tibbetts, George's wife. (For more about the Jones family, see this post).
2. Birth records. These handwritten records exist only for the period prior to 1908, when recording births became a function of the counties rather than the state. In the example at below (click to view at larger size), you can see that a child was born to Mary Albasini and Peter Pedrignana in March 1894. The baby girl was born in Gilman (which became Issaquah five years later). The age of both parents and their birthplaces are listed, as is the father's occupation (coal miner, in this case). In the next to last column is the name of the person who delivered the baby. In the case of Baby Girl Pedrignana, Dr. W.E. Gibson was on hand for the delivery. Doc Gibson attended the birth of hundreds, possibly thousands, of Issaquah babies over the course of his 50+ year career in Issaquah. Baby Girl Pedrignana grew up to become Eugenia L. Pedegana, her parents having simplified their last name within a few years of her birth.
One tip – when you're looking for a birth record, search for the name of the father or the mother (or both). Most babies were not named at the time their birth was registered, but parent names have been indexed.
3. Death records. There are two kinds of death records listed: those from the Social Security Death Index (which include birth and death date) and Washington State death records (which includes parent names, spouse names, age, date of death, and place of death). As with birth records, indexing is fallible so experiment with various name spellings before you give up.
4. Frontier Justice. This collection of records references court cases held in Washington Territory. Most of the cases deal with things like collection of debt, conveyance of deed, and the occasional divorce, but they often raise interesting questions (for example, were holiday meals impacted when Pete Reppe took his cousins to court for failure to pay his wages?). Documents from individual cases are not available, but the information you'll need to find the files is.
5. There are a number of places to access free census records. The WSDA is one of these. Although other sites might have snazzier searches available for the census, it's nice to be able to search Washington State records and the census records at the same times.
6. Many others. Browse around and you'll find incorporation papers, naturalization paperwork, and military registration forms.

Triennial lactation symposium: Prolactin: The multifaceted potentiator of mammary growth and function
J. F. Trott, A. Schennink, W. K. Petrie, R. Manjarin, M. K. van Klompenberg, R. C. Hovey
At face value there are clear and established roles for prolactin (PRL) in the regulation of mammary gland growth, lactogenesis, and galactopoiesis. These actions of PRL do not occur in isolation; rather, they are finely attuned to and coordinated with many local, reproductive, and metabolic events in the female. Hence, to understand PRL action at the level of the mammary gland is to understand the systemic and local contexts in which it acts and functions. Herein we review the functions of PRL, its receptors, and the pathways leading to the phenotypes it evokes within the mammary glands, including growth and lactation, across a variety of species. At one level, the actions of PRL are mediated by several PRL receptor (PRLR) isoforms, including its long form and various short PRLR variants that are generated by alternative splicing in a species- and tissue-dependent manner. In turn, these PRLR activate a variety of intracellular signaling cascades. We also focus on how PRL coordinates with other endocrine cues to impart its effects on the mammary glands, where the ovarian hormones can independently and substantially modulate PRL action. Many of these effects of PRL are also realized at the local level of the mammary gland, either through the autocrine or paracrine synthesis of a multitude of molecules and transcription factors or through its effects on adjacent supporting tissues, including the mammary vasculature. Taken together, it is clear that PRL directs a variety of mechanisms during growth and function of the mammary gland and is deserving of its classification as the master hormone.

Herein we review the functions of PRL, its receptors, and the pathways leading to the phenotypes it evokes within the mammary glands, including growth and lactation, across a variety of species. At one level, the actions of PRL are mediated by several PRL receptor (PRLR) isoforms, including its long form and various short PRLR variants that are generated by alternative splicing in a species- and tissue-dependent manner. In turn, these PRLR activate a variety of intracellular signaling cascades. We also focus on how PRL coordinates with other endocrine cues to impart its effects on the mammary glands, where the ovarian hormones can independently and substantially modulate PRL action. Many of these effects of PRL are also realized at the local level of the mammary gland, either through the autocrine or paracrine synthesis of a multitude of molecules and transcription factors or through its effects on adjacent supporting tissues, including the mammary vasculature. Taken together, it is clear that PRL directs a variety of mechanisms during growth and function of the mammary gland and is deserving of its classification as the master hormone.

SAMUEL K. ROBERTS
Giving Up the Ghost of National Myth and Dangerous Fictions
At the sixty-year anniversary of Emmett Till's lynching, it is appropriate that we think about his image and the historical relationship between race and the media. The horrible and now well-known postmortem photograph of Emmett Till, first published in Jet magazine on September 15, 1955, was the product of two decisions. One, of course, was that of John H. Johnson, Jet's editor and publisher, to run the picture. More important and more brave, however, was Mamie Till Bradley's own editorial decision of a sort, to have in Chicago an open-casket funeral for her son, to display to the world and compel it to look at the visitation upon her family of the Southern horror, as Ida B. Wells had characterized lynching over sixty years before. As Bradley herself put it, nearly fifty years later, "I couldn't bear the thought of people being horrified by the sight of my son… But on the other hand, I felt the alternative was even worse. After all, we had averted our eyes for far too long, turning away from the ugly reality facing us as a nation. Let the world see what I've seen. I know, because I was guilty of the same thing. But to let that continue…, well, that was too much for me to bear." The depth of Bradley's courage – not only to stand unbent and unbowed before that coffin, but also to make her voice heard around the world – is almost unfathomable. No one in that family went untouched by Emmett's murder. Moses Wright, Till's great uncle and host in Money, Mississippi, provided the dramatic testimony against the killers, brothers Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam, an act for which he would have to flee Mississippi permanently. To 21st-century eyes accustomed to twenty-plus megapixel brilliance, the Jet photo is grainy grayscale undifferentiated except in shade. And yet it is still one of the most gruesome things I have ever seen, its vividness emanating from our knowledge of the acts and decisions, despicable and courageous, which brought it into being.
Conventional wisdom, which is to say national mythology, is that the lynching of Emmett Till – and, more specifically, the circulation of his image -- was a catalyzing event in the modern Civil Rights Movement, when white America was forced into awareness of the dehumanizing violence and brutality of Southern Jim Crow mores. Like so much national myth of the Black Freedom Struggle (and in U.S. history generally), there is something discomfitingly comfortable about this narrative. First, if white mainstream press coverage is any indicator, as Brian Thornton has argued, it is not entirely clear that white America's awareness was heightened to the level current popular memory suggests, certainly, at least, not immediately after Till's murder. Compared to the dozens of black newspapers and magazines which continued to raise questions before, during, and after the farcical trial of Till's murderers in November, 1955, white American press coverage was fairly anemic, and few white papers would republish the image of Till's brutalized body, even while it circulated widely among black readers. The January, 1956, publication in Look magazine of William Bradford Huie's interview with Bryant and Milam featured the two men's confession, rendered in horrifying matter-of-factness and self justification, eliciting concerned editorials in several Northern white papers, but there was not nearly enough uproar to move anyone in the federal government to take notice. The U.S. Department of Justice waited nearly five decades to reopen the Till case, in 2004, well after the 1980 and 1994 natural deaths of Milam and Bryant, respectively. Mamie Till-Mobley (since remarried), who died in January, 2003, never saw justice for her son.
On the other hand, it is true that Till's murder and the travesty of justice two months later motivated millions of African Americans in the Black Freedom Struggle. Until then many blacks outside the South and even in the South had not been fully aware of or cognitively did not allow themselves to confront the degree of violence which was always possible in places like Money, Mississippi. Antiblack violence in the South was not rare or unknown; it just often simply was too horrific or dangerous to speak of, and thus gradually forgotten. People disappeared in the night, and their families could face reprisal simply for mentioning it in mixed company, let alone requesting an investigation. Even full-scale campaigns of ethnic cleansing, such as the pogroms in Wilmington, NC, 1898 or Tulsa, OK, 1921, had gone so uncommemorated and unmemorialized that they became unremembered. In 1955 and after, Emmett's image in death reached icon status among African-Americans, and Mamie Bradley's courage and injunction to no longer "avert our eyes" was catalytic to organizers, political leaders, writers, artists, and millions of ordinary citizens.
History does not repeat itself, and the difference today is that we have far more images of the beaten, brutalized and slain than at any moment even in recent history. This, of course, is not because white extrajudicial violence against women, men, girls, and boys of color necessarily is particularly higher today (we have no truly useful historical or current data, even regarding police killings), but rather because we have more citizen journalists, either deliberate or conscripted by conscience, to deliver the images and reportage to the public. Even while corporate and mainstream media today, as it did then, ignores brutality's victims or dismisses them as "emotionally volatile" (women) or "thugs" (men), black social and digital media has proven a powerful intervention to that trend. However, what has not changed is the required participation and commitment to the painstaking and calculated work of organizing and coalition building. The sharing of information is important, but the medium is not the message, in the same way that Till's image on its own did not make a movement. Each of us should try our best to take the information we consume and translate it into action as leaders, as followers, as volunteers, as contributors, as writers, as artists, as human beings whose voices will be heard.

Students sing in support of Choral Director David White prior to Monday night's Hillsboro Board of Education meeting.
After a one hour and 56 minute executive session, the Hillsboro City Schools Board of Education voted 3-2 Monday night to approve a recommendation from Superintendent Tim Davis to consider the termination of Choral Director David White's contract.
According to Davis, White put students in danger during a recent trip to New York City when he allowed 12 kids on the trip to move a car that was blocking the path of their bus.
During the public participation portion of the meeting several students and community members spoke in favor of White until the board said the allotted 30 minutes for them to speak had passed.
No one spoke against him.

Advances in Stem Cell Labeling and Implications for Biological Research
By Keynote Contributor'sDr. Oleg Podgorny & Dr. Grigori EnikolopovMoscow Institute of Physics and Technology
Stem cells contribute to the development of tissues and organs and are responsible for their functioning and maintenance throughout life. They reside in various tissues, and divide to either reproduce themselves or give rise to progeny that undergoes a limited number of divisions and ends up as a functional cell of that tissue.

Exhaustion of the stem cell pool or loss of their ability to produce progeny capable of maturing into functional differentiated cells is currently considered as a main cause of many deceases that accompany aging.
The importance of stem cell labelling
To explore the prospects of healthy tissue rejuvenation or damaged tissue regeneration, it is necessary to uncover the cellular mechanisms supporting the life cycle of stem cells. This means tracking the propagation of stem cells in living tissues, tracing the fate of their progeny, and investigating cell distribution in organs.
Traditional experiments involved tagging the DNA in dividing cells with modified nucleotides. When a cell which has incorporated the tag into its genome divides, all its progenies will be tagged, too. However, so far it has been impossible to use more than two tags simultaneously.
Advances in stem cell labelling
Being able to mark dividing cells with different tags enables cellular processes to be explored in great detail. The problem was that previously, it was impossible to use more than two tags. We recently established a method for labeling three or four DNA tags at once. The use of three or four independent tags allows for marking several cohorts of cells born at distinct timepoints to observe the stem cell progeny passing through the different maturation stages.
Various combinations of pulse and cumulative marking highlights specific subpopulations among dividing stem cells. For example, injecting mice with three tags sequentially revealed the conveyor belt pattern of division and migration of cells in the intestine. Using this technique, we were able to analyze the patterns and parameters of neural stem cell division in the adult brain.
Determination of cycle re-entry, a critical parameter of the cell division kinetics, allowed for the conclusion that neural stem/progenitor cells in the hippocampus, a brain area with continuous neurogenesis, undergo approximately four cell divisions before exiting the cell cycle.
The same approach can be used for parallel analysis of various other dividing cells in an organism. We expect that various combinations of tags and labeling schemes will reveal new complex features of dividing stem cells, such as the distinct steps of their cell cycle entry or exit or the alternation between quiescent and proliferative states, under both normal and pathological conditions.

The future for dividing stem cell labeling
Identifying molecular mechanisms underlying the cell cycle entry or exit or the alternation between quiescent and proliferative states is currently being considered as a critical direction in the field of stem cell research. It is hoped that our technique will contribute to this direction by allowing for identification of stem cells which are undergoing or have recently undergone switch from one state to another.
When combined with the various approaches of genetic tracing, such as Cre-Lox recombination, our method will reveal the proliferative history of definite cell lineages that is critical not only for adult stem cell research, but also for tissue engineering and developmental biology.

Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology for Architecture, Engineering and Construction
NEWS: Aconex launches 'Connected BIM' for project-wide collaboration
New solution on Aconex Platform manages BIM data between design and construction teams and in to operations.
Aconex Connected BIM is a new extension of the Aconex cloud collaboration platform for managing BIM data and processes for project-wide collaboration between design and construction teams and handover to the owner.
With Aconex Connected BIM, designers for specific disciplines can create and modify models in their native authoring tools and use simple software plug-ins to publish them in the Aconex BIM Cloud. On the platform, all members of the project team – other designers, engineers, consultants, contractors, subcontractors, and owners – can view, distribute, mark up, and contribute to model data at the object level. This coordinated process is said to support timely detection of clashes with a view to optimising constructability.
As the project moves through design and into construction, team members can link each object in the model with relevant project documents, communications and workflows. For example, a mechanical subcontractor can tag a pump with an operating manual or a commissioning sheet. Project team members can issue an RFI or a design query regarding that pump for timely resolution with a complete audit trail.
At practical completion, a comprehensive and accurate set of interrelated project information – including the model, all of the documentation associated with each of its objects, and an audit trail – can be handed over to the owner for operation, says Aconex.
"Aconex now connects all participants with BIM data and processes project-wide, enabling project teams to share, consume and enrich models on a single integrated collaboration platform in the cloud," said Rob Phillpot, senior vice president of product and engineering and co-founder of Aconex. "From their web browsers and mobile devices, design and construction teams can resolve issues early and produce a fully documented visualisation of the project that is ready for operation at handover. With a complete and accurate set of interconnected project data outside the model, owners can reduce operating costs, which account for up to 75% of total asset lifecycle costs."

Women Who Rock
Although Pipitone's band was a bit modified, bringing in talents from two other bands, Patrick Shaughnessy on drums (from Doombuggy) and Rebecca Mercurio on acoustic bass (from Red Headed Stepchild), it gave the music a unique twist. Shaughnessy created a steady beat, acting as the backbone for the music, and Mercurio moved with the bass as if it were her own body. Holly Christiano kept the rhythm going on guitar as the band continued with "Brown eyed-man," which emulated a classic rock sound, with a mixture of blues, that gave a slow and almost sexy feel.
The band also added to its set list a cover of Lucinda Williams' "The Name of This Town," which has also been covered by the infamous Tom Petty. To conclude her group's set, Pipitone voiced her appreciation to be playing with L.P and then broke into her last song, "What Do You When You Don't Know What To Do?" Pipitone wailed on the electric guitar and eventually slid down on her knees toward Christiano, proving to the audience that she is quite the virtuoso. It was only when the set stopped that the feet stopped tapping.
Next up was headliner LP, a petite woman sporting low riding jeans that were barely held on by a belt, a black t-shirt and wild, short, curly brown hair, covering almost all of her eyes and backed by a two guitar, one bass and drum lineup, began with her first song "Can't Shake It." I must say, after hearing the vocals from this woman, neither could I. If you just looked at LP, you would never guess that such incredibly powerful voice and impressive vocal range could come from such a tiny woman. Her voice (think a sweeter versions of Stevie Nick's without the smoker's voice) incorporates a hard-rock sound along with a bluesy undertone, which left the audience with their jaws on the floor and smiles across their faces.
LP released her debut solo album, Heart-shaped SCAR in 2001, and has been touring different venues around the country ever since. What made this show particularly unique was the fact that LP played only two songs off that album. The rest of her work was relatively new and extremely well done.
LP's voice trilled in the song "Never Was," as she hit high notes that would normally make your ears bleed. But she sang them so eloquently and with such ease you couldn't realize the change in tone. Not only were LP's vocals amazing but so was her stage presence. She used the stage as her own personal canvas and threw her entire body into the music. Strutting around the stage like a female Iggy Pop, LP kept the audience constantly focused on her. While singing the song "Little Depth," LP added in a hint of Elvis by giving the audience a little lip curl, thrusting her hips in all directions, and moving with the music. Watching her was as fun as listening.
The bass and drums softened their sound during the song "Wasted," which allowed the audience to hear LP's distinctly flawless voice, while she kept her hard rock edge. I've gotta hand it to her; she makes being "wasted" quite a beautiful thing. It was amazing how she made singing seem so natural and effortless.
It was the song, "The Darkside," that threw me for a loop. Although the blithe tune didn't seem to fit the downer title, the band's relentless energy made it sound phenomenal. They also made it interesting to watch as Lowry went airborne during the song, "Huge in Japan." Returning for two encores, LP covered a slower version of Radiohead's "Creep," enrapturing the crowd one last time.
Although both Pipitone and LP are women who look like they would break if you twisted them the right way, they proved to the audience that size definitely doesn't matter. Both artists, with their in-your-face vocals and strikingly intense energy, created a night of ongoing musical vigor that captivated the entire audience. If you weren't there (and by the size of the turnout you probably weren't), and like hard rockin' music, you need to stop reading this and go check out both of these artists. Trust me, you'll thank me later. By Amanda Zackem
Thursday evening at the Mohawk Place was undoubtedly a night in which women were in charge. The double-billed rock show featured none other than Buffalo's own Alison Pipitone as the opener and New York City's LP headlining.
Pipitone opened with a simple "thanks for coming" and then busted her way into the first song, "Long, Long, Ladder," with her deep, sweet voice that gave off a solid vibe. Complementing her was her sister Jessica Pipitone, who sang backup vocals, harmonized beautifully. Although the crowd was minimal, that didn't stop Pipitone from putting forth full effort. The song "If You Say No," which she jokingly dedicated to "all of the smokers who are obeying the law," was one that anyone could dance to. With its upbeat tempo, it could be played in your car while you drive to the beach (or to Beaver Island). Not only did the audience love this song, Pipitone's energy showed as she gave us all a guitar-embraced leg kick.

Travel to Rhodes, a cosmopolitan island with stunning beaches
The island of Rhodes is located south east of Athens, off the Anatolian coast of Turkey. It's the largest of all of the Dodecanese islands and a hugely popular tourist destination, with its pristine beaches and historic sites. The island's capital is the town of Rhodes which is home to ample beautiful architecture in its Old Town, which has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Rhodes of today is an intoxicating mix between modern beach destination and a place for historic lovers. After all, there were humans in the area as far back as the Neolithic period. Many different races of people have arrived on the island since then, including Minoans, Telchines and Dorians. Over the years Rhodes has been invaded on several occasions; today the only invasion is by tourists, and it's a peaceful one!
Hippocrates square in the historic Old Town of Rhodes
There are many things to keep you occupied if you visit Rhodes, including a visit to its fascinating capital, Rhodes Town. Almost like visiting two separate towns, the Old Town is completely encapsulated within the newer town that has built up around it and it's cut off from the outside world by a moat and double walls.
Take a walk within the Old Town and you're transported back in time. You can see examples of architecture that is influenced by classical styles, medieval times, and the Ottoman and Italian eras. It's a truly magical mix. If you're in search of a little romance then there's nothing quite like a stroll along the cobbled streets as the sun sets and night begins to fall.
Away from the Old Town, Rhodes town is a place which has everything you could want as a traveler, including upmarket stores, high end restaurants, buzzing bars and friendly bistros. There is quite a contrast between old and new which makes Rhodes town such an interesting place to visit.
Path down to St. Paul's Bay at Lindos in Rhodes
The island of Rhodes is not all about its capital of course. There is plenty to see from one end of the island to the other when you visit Rhodes. The beaches are one of its most famous assets; from quieter stretches of sand such as Pefkos Beach, to the romantic St Paul's Bay and the busier beach areas around Lindos. Even if you're coming here for the history, you should spend at least some of your time at one of these beautiful beaches. Then you can explore the rest of the island, including ancient ruins, historic places of worship and a myriad of bars and restaurants where you can seek refreshment after a busy day of sightseeing.
Busiest during summer, its peak season, Rhodes has a Mediterranean climate so you can make the most of its mild weather throughout the year. The coolest month is January when the average high is 15C (59F), though January is also the wettest month. By April the rainfall has really tapered out and the temperatures are rising, and by July and August you can expect average daily highs of around 30C (87F), perfect for lounging on the beach!
Visit the island of Rhodes for your vacation and you're never going to be bored! Eat at a beachside restaurant, participate in some water sports or take in the vast history of this island paradise. There is never a shortage of things to do in Rhodes. You can take a stroll along the beach in the evening or wander among the architectural discoveries at the Acropolis of Lindos. It's truly a place where all the modern traveler conveniences lie side by side with amazing history and culture around every corner.
