"When it comes to location scouting, some say Machado has a crystal ball for establishing the next hot spot — on Southeast Division, in the Lloyd District and in Nel Centro's part of downtown before they all saw their Renaissance.
The inviting patios at downtown's Nel Centro (above) and Lloyd District's Altabira City Tavern have been part of the success formula for owner David Machado.
It's patio season for restaurants, and Altabira City Tavern boasts one of the city's best.
Smack dab in the middle of the busy Lloyd District with views of the city skyline from six stories up, the covered space outside the main restaurant at the Hotel Eastlund — with heaters, sofas and a swanky urban vibe — has grown into a hotspot for Rose Quarter crowds, business people and happy hour groupies alike.
But David Machado never expected the patio to be a "scene," as he puts it.
As owner of Altabira — which marks its first birthday this month — he built the patio simply as an extension of the dining room, which serves 16 local beers on tap and a beer-forward, locally sourced, seasonal menu.
In other words, the crowds came out — en masse — for Portland's newest patio, as we are prone to do.
And it got rowdy. But then it calmed down.
It's going to be nice weather for awhile, meaning David Machado, owner of Nel Centro and Altabira, will be hosting patrons on patios.
And now as it heats up again, Machado is bracing for patio season at Altabira and his other restaurant, Nel Centro, located downtown at the Hotel Modera.
Both are large restaurants, close to 300 seats apiece, serving a specific niche of tourists and locals alike, which Machado is keenly aware of.
At Nel Centro — which just celebrated its seventh birthday — the patio is warm, inviting and feels like someone's backyard party.
A major part of the demographic are arts patrons coming downtown for a show; in fact they often run cocktails based on an opera or ballet title, like a "Magic Flute" procecco and "Sweeney Todd" bourbon drink.
With a relaxed vibe and wine-forward, Euro-centric menu, it turns into a different beast in the summertime when everyone's hankering for that perfect happy hour experience.
In fact Nel Centro first opened without a happy hour, but started one six months later due customer demands.
With deep roots in Portland's restaurant world, Machado has seen what works, and what doesn't.
In addition to Altabira and Nel Centro, he owns Citizen Baker, the street-level bakery and cafe next to the Hotel Eastlund that also turns one this month.
But this isn't his first rodeo. With roots in San Francisco's food community in the 1980s, Machado moved to Portland in the early 1990s and opened several beloved restaurants that have since closed, including Pazzo Ristorante, Lauro Kitchen, Vindahlo, and recently The Heathman Restaurant.
He also opened Southpark Seafood Grill, which just reopened after a major renovation.
In 2009, he was the Oregon Restaurant Association's Restaurateur of the Year, and he's been a past board member of the Portland Farmers Market, International Pinot Noir Celebration, Share Our Strength, Travel Portland and the Portland Jazz Festival, as well as being active in numerous other organizations.
As he looks toward retirement, he has a lot of dreams.
Also, he's a heavy traveler, visiting Europe every six months with different friends and family members, including Julie, his wife and restaurant partner of 31 years.
So what does it take to run a successful restaurant in Portland?
When it comes to location scouting, some say Machado has a crystal ball for establishing the next hot spot — on Southeast Division, in the Lloyd District and in Nel Centro's part of downtown before they all saw their Renaissance.
He's constantly reflecting on the past and looking ahead.
As Baby Boomers age, Millennials globetrot and social media levels the playing field about food knowledge, Machado has seen the rise of food trucks, local artisans, pop-up dinners and what he calls the "rebel restaurants," with their farm-dug beets and half-hogs broken down in the kitchen that morning.
As he looks to the future, Machado hopes that Portland's gentrifying inner city doesn't lead to such a rent increase that young chef/owners are priced out.
The low barrier to entry "has made us a great food city over the last 20 years," he says.
Now that new hotels, restaurants and businesses will soon pop up all around Altabira in the Lloyd District, Machado couldn't be happier. But he's not resting on his laurels.

It is our pleasure to announce the recent promotion of Michelle Glass to Nel Centro General Manager. Michelle has been the Assistant GM at Nel Centro since its start in 2009 and we are so very proud to continue our wonderful relationship with her. We asked Michelle to share with our readers a little about her story and how she has enjoyed so much success after relocating to Portland.
Michelle: In August of 2008, my husband and I visited Portland on vacation, fell in love with it and started making plans to relocate from our home in Ashland. We were looking to move up to the city and be around a more diverse food scene with more cultural opportunities for our daughter and more of a bike scene for my husband, Steve who is in the bike business. I was introduced to (Nel Centro owner) David Machado through a mutual acquaintance from another downtown restaurant. Dave was just starting to put [Nel Centro] together so everything kind of happened all at the right time. By the next April I had moved up here.
What's the biggest change you've seen over the last 6 years?
Michelle: I think what's had the biggest impact on our business is understanding where our guests are coming from. Recognizing that we serve a diverse group of people: the business community, performing arts patrons, hotel guests, PSU etc. and that all those groups use the restaurant differently. Also, recognizing our patrons and how they use Nel Centro has really allowed us to tune into menu items, staffing hours — all of that stuff.
Michelle: I like our staff because everyone is really dedicated to hospitality. They're a joy to work with. I also love our regulars. I see many many people that I adore who visit us on a regular basis, several times a week, and they feel like family to me now. Being able to be at work and have such a wide range of friends, customers, and wonderful employees — it's really satisfying to the soul to enjoy so much of that.
Michelle: What's not to like?!? I love Italian food and the diversity of recipes. I like exploring different types of food since there's always something new to learn. I also really love the alchemy of food and wine together. That's what really got me passionate about the restaurant business – how that can be an art form essentially. When you have a server who can recommend the right wine with the right dish it elevates both of these experiences. I feel like that's what a great restaurant experience with what a great server does — helps you find those magical pairings that make everything better.
What's your earliest memory of food or cooking?
Michelle: My earliest memory is probably my grandma making breakfast for me in the morning before school. Eggs, Canadian Bacon, Toast. Really simple but really satisfying.
What are you passionate about, other than your job and family?
Michelle: The city of Portland and all the amazing beauty plus the incredible food & bike culture happening here.
What's your favorite Nel Centro menu item?
Michelle: Right now I'm addicted to chef John's Spaghetti with the Dungeness Crab. That dish is very simple but all the components work together so well that if you leave one of them off the dish isn't the same. Those Bottarga breadcrumbs just take the dish to a whole new level.
Michelle: A Negroni, I tend to like bitter, intense flavors so anything along those flavor profiles I really enjoy.
What one word describes Nel Centro to you?
Nel Centro is proud to announce that John Eisenhart is our new executive chef. John has been an integral part of the Portland food scene over the last 11 years while directing the kitchen at Pazzo Ristorante as their executive chef. We are very excited to have chef Eisenhart join us and share his passion and expertise for Italian and French cooking. We are quite sure that this is the just the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
Why a career as a chef?
My first job was cooking at my mom's deli in Sonoma, California. I did have plans to become a graphic designer and attended art school but when money ran out for school, cooking was the career path that I returned to.
Do you cook in your spare time?
Yes, I cook a range of cuisines but I am particularly interested in Asian cuisine at the moment.
I am inspired by raw ingredients that are seasonal. I also enjoy the challenge of creating dishes when ingredients are limited. I feel that I can sometimes do my best work when options, ingredients and time are limited.
That would have to be deep sea fishing and eating the fresh catch. I enjoyed a memorable meal like this in the Bahamas 15 years ago.
Your earliest memory of food or cooking?
My mom was a 1970's hippie and loved to grow shiitake mushrooms, can produce from the garden and make homemade yogurt. My earliest food memories are from being involved in these DIY culinary projects.
Best part of your profession?
I love the teaching and mentorship that comes with being in charge of a kitchen staff. I also love seeing our work come together – dishes, menus and service. When things comes together just right, it gives me a great sense of satisfaction.
Favorite ingredients to work with?
I especially enjoy working with foraged ingredients — I spend time in the woods with my dog hunting for mushrooms and things like wood sorrel.
What are you looking forward to at Nel Centro?
I am probably most excited about the freedom and creative support that is being given to me at Nel Centro. I also appreciate working for an owner that is a chef himself. I consider this a refreshing change since it is becoming more unusual these days in larger restaurants.
The Nel Centro Fall 2014 Newsletter is here!
Dine With Us, Then Waltz To Your Show.
The Fall Arts Season Is In Full Swing.
Dinner & a show couldn't be easier, really. October signals the start of downtown Portland's vibrant performing arts season and Nel Centro is conveniently located just minutes away from Portland's premier venues such as the Keller, the Newmark, Lincoln Hall, Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall and the Portland Art Museum. Nel Centro has a proud tradition of supporting and partnering with such esteemed arts organizations as White Bird, Chamber Music NW, The Portland Opera, Third Angle New Music, Oregon Ballet Theater, PDX Jazz, Friends of Chamber Music and Northwest Dance Project.
Nel Centro is the perfect location to rendezvous for drinks, appetizers and dinner before or after a show. Reservations can be made at nelcentro.com or by calling 503-484-1099.
The new fall menu has just been unveiled and it showcases a number of comforting and delicious fall pasta choices including Spinach Gnudi with Radicchio and Gorgonzola Sauce, Mushroom Agnolotti with Brown Butter Parmesan Brodo and Roasted Butternut Squash Risotto with Toasted Hazelnuts and Sage. New fall entrees include a Braised Pork Osso Buco with Risotto Milanese and Citrus Gremolata, Spit Roasted Pork Loin with Seared Risotto Cake and Celery Root Apple Salad, and a Grilled Ribeye Steak with Kale, Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes and Porcini Butter. On the lighter side we have a new Cream of Cauliflower Soup with Fresh Chives and Olio Verde as well as a new Grilled Radicchio, Bacon and Goat Cheese Pizza.
Reservations can be made today through Open Table.
Two new seasonal craft beer handles have been selected by gentleman barkeep Nathaniel Stout to spearhead our fall beer offerings. The first is a Hopworks Urban Brewery Survival Stout. This beer is a creamy, organic, multigrain coffee-forward stout. That was a mouthful. Try a pint with our grilled leg of lamb dish and see if it is true that charred lamb and stout are a perfect match.
Our second new offering is from Redmond Oregon's Wild Ride Brewery and it is named "Mount Up" Maple Brown. This is a delicious Brown Ale with rich dark undercurrents of chocolate and maple flavors. Be adventurous and pair it with our Tiramisu Bombe and let the cards fall where they may.
Bar manager Nat and his talented crew of young mixologists: Peter, Bryce and Molly have authored a new cocktail list that shifts away from the lighter easy-drinking summer spirits to darker more mysterious and complex ones. Two of my favorites from the recent tasting session are the Vieux Carre made with Old Overholt, Courvoisier Brandy and Carpano Antica and Autumn Leaves made with Makers Mark Bourbon, Averna, Apple Cider and Fresh Lemon Juice.
Join us for a very special evening with Diana Lenzi, Tuscan Chef & Winemaker from Fattoria di Petroio Winery on Tuesday November 4th at 6:30pm .
The cost is $95 per person inclusive of reception, dinner, wine & gratuity.
You may have heard the rumors about a new Eastside hotel/restaurant project near the Convention Center. The time has finally come to announce the two new restaurants that we will be launching in May of 2015 at the new Hotel Eastlund. The first establishment will be a ground-floor bakery/cafe and wine bar named Citizen Baker and the second will be a top-floor, beer-centric, casual American concept called Altabira City Tavern. The upstairs restaurant will feature stunning views of downtown Portland from the dining room and bar as well as an incredible outdoor patio. The design work has been a collaboration with the wildly talented gang at Holst Architecture. We could not be happier about this project so far. Stay tuned for more information.
On September 5th, the A&E section of the Oregonian selected Nel Centro as one of Downtown Portland's Top 10 Happy Hours. Thanks for the shout out and recognition (as if we didn't already know). But wait, there is more to the story. Just four days later, The Big O announced the results of its reader's poll and Nel Centro was voted by the people as Downtown Portland's Best Happy Hour. Now that is more like it. Thank you, Portland.
Still need to book a holiday party for your company, family or friends? Nel Centro still has several dates and private rooms available for this Holiday Season. We can provide an intimate dinner for 12 or a stand up reception for 150 and just about anything in between. For more information on availability please contact our Private Dining Sales Manager, Brianne Rudolph at [email protected] or by telephone at 503-484-1096.
Download the Nel Centro Fall 2014 Newsletter as a pdf.
Last week we named downtown Portland's 10 best happy hours, the second chapter of Bar Tab, our first-annual bar guide, before turning over the question to you.
With votes spread out across the board, and plenty of write-ins, Nel Centro, Southwest Portland's Italian-French restaurant attached to the Hotel Modera, won by just a vote, just beating out The Nines' rooftop bar/restaurant, Departure.
With arguably the best Westside hotel patio that's not 15 stories up, David Machado's flagship restaurant is the go-to happy hour for many office workers set free from the surrounding buildings. You can sit among green maple trees while gazing at the gas-fueled fireplaces, sipping $5 gin & tonics (well: Gordon's).

U.S. Senate Candidate Kamala Harris Discusses Armenian Issues With Pivotal Voting Block
Reaffirms her commitment to proper recognition and resolution for the Armenian Genocide during meeting with Armenian National Committee of America – Western Region
LOS ANGELES – Leaders and members of the Armenian National Committee of America – Western Region (ANCA-WR) recently met with California Attorney General Kamala Harris as her campaign for U.S. Senate kicks into high gear. The Armenian voting block is poised to play a pivotal role in the upcoming U.S. Senate race. The meeting provided Harris the opportunity to better familiarize herself with the work of the ANCA and issues important to the Armenian community, while allowing the organization to share its priorities and vision for justice, peace, and prosperity in the region.
The Jan. 16, 2015 Sacramento Bee editorial, "Why Glendale matters in race to replace Boxer," addresses the significant impact Armenians can have on statewide election outcomes due to their large number of absentee voters. "If you're handicapping the race to replace Barbara Boxer in the U.S. Senate in 2016, factor in Armenian Americans of Glendale," wrote Dan Morain, of the Sacramento Bee.
"I had a wonderful time meeting with the leadership of ANCA-Western Region and Southern California leaders involved with the organization, just as I've enjoyed our dialogue over the years. I will continue to stand with the Armenian community in the Senate in pursuing proper recognition and resolution for the Armenian Genocide – one of humanity's darkest chapters, just as I have as a prosecutor and California's Attorney General. I look forward to many more conversations about how we can make a difference for all our families and get real results for our people, and issues critical to the Armenian-American community as we continue our fight against civil and human rights violations," stated Harris.
ANCA and ANCA WR leaders discussed with Harris issues of national concern to the community, including the Royce-Engel letter calling on peace in the region, establishing a sound trade agreement between the U.S. and Armenia and Azerbaijan's increasing aggression towards the Republic of Artaskh. The Attorney General sympathized with the Armenian community's struggle to gain justice for the families of Armenian Genocide survivors and agreed that it is of utmost importance to educate the youth and future generations of the consequences of genocide and human rights violations.
"We'd like to thank Attorney General Harris for taking the time to become better acquainted with the ANCA and the vibrant Armenian-American community of California," stated ANCA-WR Nora Hovsepian. "We appreciate her understanding of communities that have experienced delayed justice and are encouraged by her strong background in civil rights activism. We wish the Attorney General much success in her bid for U.S. Senate and look forward to building upon our relationship in the months and years ahead," she added.
Joining the meeting were delegates from the 43rd Assembly District, who briefly discussed the Democratic convention taking place in February and her bid for the U.S. Senate. The delegates took the opportunity to describe their party involvement as well as their occupational interests, while ANCA leaders noted that the beauty of the ANCA lies in its diverse grassroots membership who come from all walks of life, backgrounds and party affiliations – making it the largest and most influential Armenian-American advocacy organization.
Harris is the current Attorney General of California and was first elected in 2010. On January 3, 2011, she was sworn in as the 32nd Attorney General of the State of California. The ANCA-Western Region endorsed Harris during her 2014 re-election campaign, which she won on November 4, 2014. She is the first woman, the first African American, and the first South Asian to hold the office in the history of California.
In 2012 Harris filed an amicus brief that supported California law that protects the property rights of Armenian Americans who were denied life insurance benefits during and after the Armenian Genocide. The brief was filed after an unfavorable ruling by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

My annual mammogram fell during October this year, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and I am never more aware of my potential to develop breast cancer than I am during my annual visit to the radiologist.
While decorated with magnificent orchids, the office is not a place of warmth, prevention, possibility, or hope. This is a cold, clinical place of forms, wristbands, insurance information, no deodorant or creams and no reassuring conversation. A strange quiet can be felt in the air hanging heavy with wonder about the others in the waiting room. Who is here for a recheck? Who has to have a biopsy? Who has been told that cancer may have recurred?
I sit in my stiff chair decorated with synthetic pink and blue specked fabric and feign an air of nonchalance, checking my email, running through my to-do list for when I return to Tournesol. However, inside I'm not feeling effortlessly unconcerned. In fact, I am deeply mindful of my breath. I inhale light and exhale anything that's not serving me as I engage my vagal nerve to release the impact of fear.
But everything about this environment and process kicks up fear for me.
That was Friday, October 7th. On the evening of Monday, October 10th I noticed a voicemail from the radiologist's office. The woman's voice asked me to please call her back so we could discuss my mammogram.
I waited until I could wait no longer and at 8:50am the next morning I called. The machine picked up since the office wasn't open yet. "You've reached biopsy scheduling," the woman on the machine said. And that was that. Tears flowed all the way from Grand Central to my coffee spot on 38th and Madison (would I have to give up coffee?) and up to my oasis at Tournesol (who would take care of my kids?). I took another breath and called again. I had to face this. There was no sense in putting it off.
"Hello. Radiology." I informed her of who I was. She asked me to hold while she got my chart and then with a sprightly spirited voice she let me know the doctor wanted me to come for another sonogram of the left side. At that moment both relief and anger rushed in. Fear no longer had a seat at the table.
This is the routine I go through every year. I always have a repeat sonogram on the left side. So with fear subsiding and frustration rising I asked the woman on the phone if she was aware of the message on the recording. She was in fact and informed me in her cheerful tone that I could just ignore it.
I went back for the sonogram and thankfully all was fine. I met with the office manager about the recording while I was there. She thanked me for bringing it to her attention and changed the message before I left. I hope this saves many more women from unwarranted extra fear and worry.
In my journey to creating Tournesol, I knew I had to shift this dialogue. The paradigm of fear-based medicine was producing stress and employing language that nurtured the growth of anxiety toward a "need" to medicate. Why were we so quick to prescribe pharmaceuticals even before examining the impact of our words?
With Tournesol, I built a home for care that empowers you and partners with you in the healing conversation. We are a place of peace and prevention and education.
Tournesol Truth #3: Words carry weight and influence your ability to heal. Period.
If I told you your body had a brilliant ability to heal, that there are several tools available to you that boost your body's ability to thrive, that there are options other than those with devastating side effects, would fear recede for you?
If you walked into your doctor's office and were treated as an equal, were given a whole hour to discuss your concerns, your goals and then co-created a plan of action, if you were given techniques that addressed all the variables that impacted your health, would you feel more empowered?
That's what I'm about. That's who I am. And that is a big part of why I started Tournesol.
You don't have to give your power away to fear-based medicine. We can all have more control over our lives and over whole health, mind, body and spirit.
Is your current medical care empowering? Is it a peaceful place of prevention and education? If not, I think you deserve better. I'm curious to hear your thoughts. Email me at carey@tournesolwellness.com. I'll email you back.


Sometimes when I turn on the TV the image that comes up, for the channel that the TV happens to be tuned too, is frozen. I can change the channels but the same image will remain on the TV, on any channel I choose. The sound is fine and changes with the different channel selection. All other functions on the TV seem to work. I can play a recorded program, but again, the screen will still have the frozen picture.
The only way I have found to get the picture working again is to unplug the PVR box (BlueSky) and have it reboot. This has happened at least a half dozen times over the past few weeks.
I am sorry to hear that continues to be an issue. Usually unplugging the power one time will do the trick. Luckily we have a number of further steps we can try to get this resolved for you.
The first may sound a bit odd but it is a large part of the issues. Do you have your cable box plugged into a wall outlet directly or does it go through a surge protector or power bar of some kind? What will happen is the power gets limited by those and it causes the box to not function correctly.
If you are hooked into one of those the best first steps I could suggest is to try hooking it directly to a wall outlet and testing it out for a while. That should give us a good indication of where the problem is coming from.
It is plugged directly into the wall. This should be a firmware issue from some update I imagine - seeing as how others are suffering the same issue?
Honestly this is not a firmware issue. This is just a technical problem and this is one way you will see the symptoms show up on digital equipment.
I am going to send you a message to your community inbox shortly. Reply to that and I can take a look at your account and get this cleared up.
I have experienced this issue before with BlueSky TV although not very often.
This is a long time issue.
It happens to us pretty much every day. Having to reboot machine every day or two to get it working again.
I believe it has something to do with having the system running through a receiver of some sort. Usually everyone I've seen having this issue is not going directly from bluesky to tv, but through receiver, then tv.
Had my pvr swapped out after a few months and didn't change a thing.
I've had this happen once (and the first day we had Bluesky) with no receiver in the equation-the video freezes-but the menus still function.
I do have a surge protector-but that seems a bit of a stretch if the protector is simply protecting the power and not the cable signal. Unless you have enough equipment to strain a 15a outlet (and it isn't a heavily shared circuit with other rooms and/or devices) that'd be a mighty sensitive device that sounds like it requires an online UPS to safely operate?
Tried plugging in PVR direct to power outlet, instead of through surge protector as that was recommended. That did not change anything. Still does the freezing as normal.
I am interested to know if the new 4K pvr box would fix this. It is completely different size and internals so it could possibly fix this issue completely. Or not. Very interested to know though.
My Blue sky box has been doing this too. And lately it has been losing recorded programs. Stuff I can't get on demand or online either. So frustrating.


I bought three copies of the April issue of California Home and Design last night. Why? Because inside is a story that I shot all the images for! I'm so excited to share my first editorial spread with you.
I look a little bit serious here in my contributor photo (yay for being a contributor).
It was a really great project put together by Vanessa de Vargas. Basically 18 different interior designers took on a room in the Upward Bound Shelter in Culver City and made it their own. Many of the designers went deep into their own pockets to get it done and a lot of care went into each one. I shot all 18 (in one day and without any electricity in the rooms, omg it was stressful) and California Home and Design featured 3 of them: Vanessa de Vargas, Kelly La Plante and Bridgid Coulter. For info on all the designers and vendors who donated their time, energy and goods click here.
Also, would you mind updating my blog link from Las Angeleas to Victoria Namkung (http://victorianamkung.com) thanks!!!
I'm so jealous! Kudos to you, Laure!
You are such a rock star. You inspire me! AND you look bea-u-ti-ful! Also, I finally figured out that I can be a 'follower' of your blog. Duh. Hee hee hee. Congrats, cherie! Je t'embrasse!
congrats to you, stunning pages. Just found you, will be back for more. Have a great week ahead.
congrats! the photos are great!
thanks everyone, it's so nice to get so much support, even though I don't actually know anyone!
For my part everybody ought to glance at this.


At some point or another in your photography career, you're going to be confronted with a very unwelcome sign — a low battery warning. It's inevitable. While this might spell disaster, especially if you don't happen to have backup batteries available, there are a few things you can do to help extend the life of your camera's battery.
Created by SLR Lounge, this short video breaks down seven different things you can do to help conserve every last drop of battery power your camera possesses. While some of them might be no-brainers, there are a few interesting tips within the video.
For those who want a quick synopsis without watching the video, below is a brief rundown of each of the seven tips (as well as one I've learned throughout my photography career).
My personal tip to add to the list is to make sure your batteries are warm. With autumn here and winter around the corner in most of the northern hemisphere, you'd be surprised how much longer batteries last when they're kept warm.
To keep them warm, you can keep them in your pants pocket, where body heat should keep them at least a few degrees warmer. Alternatively, you can carry around a few of those disposable hand warmers in your camera bag to keep the batteries even more toasty.
If you know of any other tips for extending the battery life of your camera's batteries, leave them in the comments below.

Home > about museum > Item of the week > Salt block
By Piotr | Published: 15 October 2013
The basic method for moulding the salt bed in the Wieliczka mine was to tear it out with the use of iron wedges; the cuboid blocks were then treated and transformed into barrel shapes or a cylinder for trading purposes. Those blocks were the main product of salt mines in the region of Krakow for six centuries — from the second half of the 13th century to 1876. The elongated, oval shape made the transportation of salt cylinders easier, which were sometimes very heavy to move through the maze of underground excavations. Salt blocks were rolled by special teams of miners, making use of hard rods.
The production of salt blocks was first mentioned in the Wawel Cathedral Diplomatic Register in 1278. The note referred to the salt mine in Bochnia. Salt blocks in the Wieliczka mine were recorded for the first time in the incorporation charter of the town of Wieliczka issued in 1290. According to the regulation of King Casimir III the Great of 1368, blocks of salt weighed ca. 300-400 kg. In the 14th century, the Wieliczka salt works produced three types of salt blocks: the so-called Krakow style, Oświęcim style, and Slovak style, whereas in the 17th century there were 9 types of salt blocks weighing from ca. 1,000 kg to even 2,000 kg.
These are short descriptions of some of the salt blocks:
Krakow-style salt block — the main product purchased by Polish merchants at a lower price, designed for the Polish market;
Oświęcim-style salt block — of greater value, designed for the salt storehouse in Oświęcim (at the Silesia and Malopolska border), from where it was distributed to Silesia and Moravia as the major exportation direction;
Slovak-style salt block — small salt block weighing ca. 600 kg; the size was adjusted for long transportation of these blocks in mountainous areas and the frequent change of means of transport;
Noble-style salt block — weighed ca. 1250 kg and was designed for noblemen; this type of salt block resulted from the Nieszawa Statutes of 1454 when King Casimir Jagiellon ordered a special privilege for noblemen, which said that noblemen could purchase salt directly from salt mines on days of fasting (three times a year);
Donative salt block — given freely to holders of certain privileges (e.g., churches, monasteries).
This salt block is of the Krakow style. It is a block (length: 1,640 mm, diameter: 600 mm) that was hewed with a pick and bears traces of treatment on the surface. The block's ends were processed slightly slantwise and the side walls were slightly flattened.
One interesting fact is that in the early 16th century the average value of a small salt block was comparable to that of a saddled horse.

5 dumb excuses for ditching a checking account
Marcie Geffner
December 27, 2012 in Checking
Don't close your checking
Consumers come up with plenty of reasons to close their checking accounts. They favor cash or prepaid debit cards. They don't want to pay bank fees. Or they have an ideological grudge against big banks. But the fact is a basic checking account still offers a good value and important features for most people.
The benefits start with safety and security but don't end there. Checking accounts also offer debit cards, ATMs, text alerts, direct deposit, online bill pay, electronic record keeping and mobile banking. So if you've been thinking about closing your checking account, you might want to think again. Here are some typical excuses for closing or not holding a checking account and why they're ill-advised.
You prefer to use cash
Cash is familiar and convenient, yet even the paper dollar isn't without limitations. If cash is lost, stolen or destroyed in a fire or flood, it's often irreplaceable. But money deposited at a bank or credit union is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. if the money is deposited into an account, says Terry Jorde, senior executive vice president at the Independent Community Bankers of America, a banking industry organization in Washington, D.C.
"Most people don't realize that (cash) isn't insured if it's in a safe deposit box. So, just from a security standpoint, it's very important that people have checking accounts," Jorde says.
People who restrict themselves to cash also give up a myriad of features and functions that come with a checking account. Karen Carlson, director of education and creative programs at InCharge Education Foundation, an affiliate of InCharge Debt Solutions in Orlando, Fla., points to text alerts as one example.
"A wallet and mattress are never going to tell you that you're running out of money. A bank can," she says.
You don't want to pay bank fees
Free checking accounts aren't as commonplace as they once were. Yet many accounts still offer ways to avoid monthly bank fees by maintaining a balance, receiving direct deposits, swiping a debit card or using other banking products, says Erin Constantine, senior vice president of Wells Fargo Bank in Concord, Calif.
What's more, Constantine says paying modest fees for a feature-rich checking account might make sense as well.
"There's so much convenience and so many tools built into that checking account that there's tremendous value even if you do pay the monthly service fee," she says.
Carlson says another way to avoid bank fees is to not use services that involve an extra cost. "Don't opt in to overdraft protection," she says. "No overdraft protection, no overdraft fees."
You prefer to use prepaid debit cards
Prepaid cards can be useful, but they typically lack such features as online bill-pay and electronic alerts that can help you manage your money. They also can't be used to deposit or write checks.
"A lot of companies still pay (employees) with a payroll check," Constantine says. "If you work for a small business or you're running a small business, it's likely that you're dealing with some paper checks."
Prepaid debit cards also don't offer monthly statements or a paper trail that you might need as proof of payment or to demonstrate creditworthiness if you want to get a loan.
By comparison, most checking accounts include paper or electronic statements, records of electronic payments and electronic copies of processed checks. If your income tax returns are audited, the ability to retrieve your financial records online could be tremendously helpful, Constantine says.
What's more, prepaid cards aren't free. "The fees are higher on prepaid cards, so I'm not sure what advantage you're getting," Carlson says.
You don't need a checking account
While some young people get by with prepaid cards, no one's financial situation is static.
"Throughout your life, your financial situation becomes more complex," Wells Fargo's Constantine says. "A prepaid card may be appropriate when you're starting out. A couple of years later, you have a significant other, a couple of kids and a car payment, and a prepaid card may not offer the tools and functionality you'll need."
Most first-time checking accounts are opened by young people. But some older adults have never had a checking account and don't understand how one works. Help in overcoming that is as close as your nearest bank, ICBA's Jorde says.
"They should not feel at all reluctant to go into their community bank and sit down with a personal banking officer, who will be happy to explain the process of opening the account and how the account works," she says. "It's not so complicated that people should be afraid of it."
Banks won't let you open a checking account
Some people can't open a checking account because their credit is impaired, or they've mismanaged a checking account in the past.
Hope isn't lost. InCharge's Carlson says there are "paths to remediation" that can help people reconnect to the banking system.
One option is a second-chance checking account that has what Constantine describes as "guardrails like bumpers in a bowling alley." These restrictions — such as higher fees or minimum balance requirements — are designed to help people who've had problems use a checking account successfully. Then, that record can be relied upon to open a regular checking account.
Another option is to open a savings account, which oftentimes includes access to check-cashing or other banking services. Later, the savings account can be linked to a checking account and used to transfer funds or set up an automatic savings plan.
"Even if they start with just a savings account, they can still come into the bank and get their money out and have that safety and security," Jorde says.

One year ago today, I wrote this baby update. At the time, all signs were suggesting that Michelle was itching to arrive. I was totally psyched and ready for action.
As it turns out, one night later we were on our way to the hospital and Michelle arrived a year ago this Friday. My girl is turning one.

"We are pleased to welcome these magnificent cruise ships and their guests, and we hope to generate even more port-of-call visits in the coming years."
One of the biggest highlights recently was the inaugural call of TUI Cruises' Mein Schiff I which brought over 2,800 guests. Many of them disembarked the vessel at Cruise Terminal 10 to head to the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, a popular attraction for those choosing to cruise from the port.

Q: Object and Classes: Finding balance ,annual interest rate, monthly interest rate, withdrawing, depositing Instructions: Design a class named Account that contains:
A private int data field named id for the account ( default 0).

*

*A private double data field named balance for the account ( default 0).

*A private constant double data field named annualInterestRate that stores the current interest rate of 12%.  Assume all accounts have the same interest rate.

*A private Date data field named dateCreated that stores the date when the account was created.

*A no-arg constructor that creates a default account.

*A constructor that creates an account with the specified id and initial balance.

*The accessor (setter) and mutator (getter) methods for id, balance, and annualInterestRate.

*The accessor method for dateCreated.

*A method named getMonthlyInterestRate() that returns the monthly interest rate in as a percentage.  For example it returns 1, not .01, for a 1% monthly rate.

*A method named getMonthlyInterest() that returns the monthly interest.

*A method named withdraw that withdraws a specified amount from the account.

*A method named deposit that deposits a specified amount to the account.

Create a project file in Bluej and implement the class. ( Hint: The method getMonthlyInterest() is to return monthly interest, not the interest rate. Monthly interest is balance * monthlyInterestRate. monthlyInterestRate is annualInterestRate /1200.
Test the program using BlueJ.  You should test each of the methods making sure that they are working properly.
Write a second class called AccountTester which contains the main method.  The account tester should do the following in this order:

*

*Create an account object

*Display the account balance

*Display the annualInterestRate

*Deposit $150

*Display the account balance

*Withdraw $50

*Display the account balance

*Deposits the monthly interest

*Display the account balance

Here is my following code. I have errors I am just not sure how to fix them. Any help/tips would be appreciated
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Date;

public class Account
{
    private int id = 0;
    private double balance = 0;
    final private double annualinterestrate = 0.12;
    Date dateCreated;

    public Account()
    {

    }

    public Account(int aId, double aBalance, double annualInterestRate)
    {
        id = aId;
        balance = aBalance;
        annualInterestRate = annualInterestRate;
        dateCreated = new Date();
    }

    public void setID (int aId)
    {
        id = aId;
    }

    public int getID()
    {
        return id;
    }

    public void setBalance (double aBalance)
    {
        balance = aBalance;
    }

    public double getbalance()
    {
        return balance;
    }

    public void setAnnualInterestRate (double aannualInterestRate)
    {
        annualInterestRate = aannualInterestRate;
    }

    public double getAnnualInterestRate()
    {
        return annualInterestRate;
    }

    public Date getDateCreated()
    {
        return dateCreated;
    }

    public double getMonthlyInterestRate()
    {
        return annualInterestRate / 12;
    }

    public void withdraw(double amount)
    {
        balance -= amount;
    }

    public void deposit(double amount)
    {
        balance += amount;
    }
}

Then here is the second class code which contains the main method:
public class AccountTester
{

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Account account = new Account(1857, 5000, 0.12);

        account.setID(1857);
        account.setBalance(5000);
        account.setAnnualInterestRate(0.12);

        System.out.println ("Account number: \n"+ +account.getID());
        System.out.println ("The account balance is: $ \n" + +account.getbalance());
        System.out.println("The Annual Interest Rate is: $ \n" + account.getannualInteresrRate());
        account.deposit(150);
        System.out.println("The account balance is: $ \n" +account.getbalance());
        account.withdraw(50);
        System.out.println("The account balance is: $ \n" +account.getbalance());
        System.out.println ("The monthly interest earned is: $ \n" + +account.getbalance() *    account.annualInterestRate());
        System.out.println ("The account was created on: \n" + +account.getdateCreated());

    }
}

A: Your current issue is that you didn't use camelCasedNames when you defined the annualInterestRate field, so it doesn't exist! It's currently named annualinterestrate instead (note there are no caps!). You ought to rename it to match what you're using elsewhere.
Also, that field in particular has another problem, which is that you've declared it final. That means you can't modify it after the object is created, so your setAnnualInterestRate method is doomed to fail anyway unless you remove the final modifier. So that field declaration should look like this:
private double annualInterestRate = 0.12;

Your naming conventions in general are obviously giving you some serious grief. You indicated in the comments that you don't want to use the this keyword since your instructor hasn't introduced it yet, and that's fine, but you should at least name your variables in some way that it's obvious from looking at it what's going on and whether it will work. Prefixing variable names with a lowercase "a" is not the answer. Instead, consider a meaningful prefix or suffix if you need to avoid naming conflicts. For example:
public void setBalance (double newBalance)
{
    balance = newBalance;
}

You've got other spelling errors elsewhere, including in your AccountTester class. You need to go through your code carefully and make sure the names match up exactly. Working with an IDE like Eclipse or NetBeans with live compilation warnings and auto-completion will likely save you a lot of trouble.

Pride in London is, at the end of the day, a jolly fun celebration – so for our third Pride Profile, we're looking at iconic party spot the Royal Vauxhall Tavern.
Few venues inspire as much devotion, as much reverence, as the inimitable Royal Vauxhall Tavern. The haunt of celebrities, drag queens, and the great and good of the LGBT community, the rich and storied history of the RVT is a colourful tale, woven into the fabric of the city's nightlife. In fact, it's so revered that in 2015, it became the first building in the UK to gain Grade II-listed status on the basis of its importance to the LGBT community. It remains closed in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, but has been given a £20,000 grant to ensure its survival, as part of Lambeth Council's Local Economy Hardship Fund – helping safeguard this vital space hopefully for many years to come. Here's all you need to know about the Royal Vauxhall Tavern! [Featured image: @chrisjepson]

First things first, the Royal Vauxhall Tavern has a long, proud history as a party destination, having been built on the site of the old Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens – and even built with the venue's leftover bricks. Though the building has been a licensed public house since the 1860s, the Royal Vauxhall Tavern's beginnings as a nightlife hub began after WW2, when the first drag shows took to the stage.

By the 1970s, drag acts and gay men mixed with local workers, making the tavern a progressive, inclusive space which continues to this day – now an all-week venue, the RVT continues to go from strength to strength as south London's oldest surviving LGBT venue. A vision in worn red velvet and disco balls, the Royal Vauxhall Tavern is a remarkably down to earth place, with an atmosphere that makes most everyone feel instantly at home.

One look at their celebrity guests, and you can be sure they've earned the 'Royal' moniker; Princess Diana was reportedly smuggled into the Royal Vauxhall Tavern in the 1980s dressed as a man, for a night out with Freddie Mercury and Kenny Everett. Oh to be a fly on the wall of that sesh! Mercury himself was a regular in the 70s, and Paul O'Grady's drag persona Lily Savage got her start right here. It's still a draw today; in the past month, Drag Race icon Bianca del Rio and 'Tales of the City' author Armistead Maupin have both hosted events there, and Belinda Carlisle will pay a visit in July.

Keeping alive the wild hedonism of the past, The Royal Vauxhall Tavern still ranks amongst the must-visit spots for city nightowls. Regular nights include "bingo-cabaret-mayhem" on Mondays, an innovative night of wildly-inclusive LGBT and Queer performance at Bar Wotever on Tuesdays, and on Saturday, it's the turn of legendary Duckie.
An RVT stalwart for over twenty years, Duckie was co-founded by current London Night Czar Amy Lamé, who's something of a Royal Vauxhall Tavern sweetheart, having also helped save the place from developers a few years back. Rock 'n' roll, honky tonk, and performance art slam together in a glorious club night that gleefully resists being pigeonholed, with vaunted DJs The Readers Wives on hand to marshal punters to the dancefloor.
Whatever the occasion, you can be sure the Royal Vauxhall Tavern will be rammed; the place doesn't exactly know the meaning of the words "quiet night". In a city which finds nightlife spaces – in particular LGBT nightlife spaces – increasingly under threat, one can only hope the RVT keeps the party going for many years to come.
