Berlin, probably the best city in the world. I first visited in 1973 and stayed for two years. If there's one place, just one place; I'd like to visit again. It would be Berlin.

European Travel Destinations - Here Are Top Ten European Travel Destinations

The top ten European travel destinations offer so much for the traveler. Any one of the top ten European travel destinations will provide a wide variety of experiences for your next vacation.



Europe is filled with historical sites dating back thousands of years, old cities of lost and ancient civilizations. But no matter where one goes, Europe never gets old. From the excellent food and drink to high-quality entertainment to shopping paradise, culture is all around. There are capital cities everywhere and many friendly villages along the way. If beautiful beaches are what you are looking for, Europe will give you many from which to choose.



Here are the top ten European travel destinations in alphabetical order:



Amsterdam, Holland - Amsterdam is famous for such attractions as Central Station, for its clubs and coffee shops. A beautiful time to visit Amsterdam would be spring since colorful tulips will be in bloom. Amsterdam includes the famous Van Gogh museum and its vast collection of his works. Amsterdam is a beautiful city with some of the best shopping in Europe and the people in Amsterdam are among the friendliest in the world. No wonder Amsterdam is one of the top ten European travel destinations.



Athens, Greece - visitors have always wanted to visit the famed monuments of the Acropolis found on a hill in the city center. The Temple of Olympian Zeus is a site that is being reconstructed. Built in 515 B.C., the monument is a temple dedicated to Zeus, the ancient Greek god of gods. Syntagma Square is a popular area in the center of Athens where there are many cafes that tourists will definitely enjoy.



Barcelona, Spain - the architecture in Barcelona is incredible such as the unfinished church of the Sagrada Familia or Sacred Family. This church is so immense that it has been under construction since 1882 with a possible completion date of 2020. The Spanish Naval Museum is interesting and can be found next to the monument of Christopher Columbus. The Naval Museum has a full-scale model of a galley ship plus the old shipyards where great galleys were built long ago.



Berlin, Germany - Berlin is one of the top ten European travel destinations and a city bustling with activity, history and intrigue. Even though Berlin has a number of interesting buildings built prior to 1945, the city today is shaped by the role it plays in German history after 1945.

The fifth largest church in the world is located in Brussels, the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, a beautiful church that can be enjoyed by religious and non-religious alike because of its architectural beauty.



Lisbon, Portugal - the heart of Lisbon is known as the Baixa, filled with many different shops and attractions. You can walk the hilly narrow streets of the old downtown area called Alfama and stop for coffee or tasty meal along the way or enjoy the Portuguese music called Fado. Getting cheap transportation around Lisbon is easy since the metro runs throughout most of the city.

Slow Day, Big Article

Monday, bloody Monday

Monday should be a day of joy. The new week begins, challenges await, adventures start and tasks are set.

Bollixs

Monday is a dreadful day when things start badly, get worse and finally go tits-up. The rest of the week is then spent sorting out Monday's mess.

Hasty decisions, followed by mis-keyed emails and failed FTP uploads. SQL errors and contact form email spam.

MONDAY... roll on TUESDAY!

Modern culture usually looks at Monday as the beginning of the workweek, as it is typically Monday when adults go back to work and children back to school after the weekend. Thus, Mondays are often seen as a misfortune. (Wiki)

Monday, a Moon Day.

Black Monday, 19 October 1987 — the second largest one-day decline in recorded stock market history.

Miracle Monday tells the story of Superman trying to stop an entity of pure evil from causing universal chaos.

Monday Hangover, an experience to avoid.

Monday Article Approving

All of the LPR staff had the weekend off. No articles were approved, no visitor statistics were assessed, no server up/down time checked... we went on the piss!

Just goes to show. The Internet ALSO has a "Sod's Law". Seems like everything went offline Friday night except for the database. That continued to accept articles.

Most of Monday we scrabbled to recover things.

EIGHT hours later, we ARE back.

Great effort from the team.

This has been voted the article of the weekend:

Offensive Language, T-shirts and Web Sites

Written by Jack

Just what can you print on a T-shirt?

Is this political correctness gone MAD?

Today, the BBC published an article about a man risking a fine for having an
"offensive" slogan on his T-shirt.

It reads, "Who the f**k is MICK JAGGER?"

He thought it was a bit of a laugh, but Peterborough City Council failed see
the funny side of the T-shirt.

Note: Even I "starred out some letters" maybe, I think it's
offensive...

Any Hole is a Goal! Except a Manhole...

Another man has been threatened with a £80 penalty notice after wearing a
top with the slogan: "Don't piss me off! I am running out of places to
hide the bodies."

It seems the "JAGGER" T-shirt was originally bought in Los Angeles,
where the local cops seem to be OK with the statement.

The BBC got an opinion from a criminal solicitor; "It is not necessary
for someone to have made an official complaint for the police to act, they just
have to think it might offend a hypothetical third party".

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/6944008.stm

This got me thinking.

There is nothing inherently offensive about any word it just depends on the
context and company.

Words are, after all, merely combinations of sounds. What makes them offensive
is the meaning, or interpretation, given to those words by the individual. It is
the very act of declaring a word to be offensive which makes it offensive.

http://www.dave.co.nz/5cents/swearing.html

In Ireland "Feck" is often used as a substitute, while in England
"Flip" is sometimes used.

A basic bit of Internet research reveals that there's quite a few T-shirt
printers quite willing to provide custom printed T-shirts and they even supply a
whole range of "offensive T-shirt" designs.

Examples:

• AK47, for when you absolutely, positively need to kill every motherf**ker
  in the room
  
• Any Hole is a Goal! Except a Manhole...
  
• Today's word is legs, Spread the word
  
• Curry makes you Shit Hot
  
• If you don't believe in oral sex, keep your mouth shut!
  
• Viagra is for pussies
  
• Fanny magnet

More examples and pictures:

http://www.chargrilled.co.uk/t-shirts/products.asp?cat=51&pass=1

I guess most of the examples above are mildly offensive in certain
circumstances and even have a certain amusement value. I wonder which ones would
incur a fine or an ASBO from the local police?

Why is it an offence to wear a T-shirt for the police to act; "It is not
necessary for someone to have made an official complaint for the police to act,
they just have to think it might offend a hypothetical third party" while
publishing a picture (which probably will have a far wider impact) on the
Internet?

In conclusion:

The offensiveness or perceived intensity or vulgarity of the various
profanities can change over time, with certain words becoming more or less
offensive as time goes on. For example, in modern times the word piss is usually
considered mildly vulgar and somewhat impolite, whereas the King James Bible
unblushingly employs it where modern translators would prefer the word urine. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profanity#Western_History

2 Kings 18:27 (King James Version)

But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee,
to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that
they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?

Man barred from flights over 'offensive' t-shirt... strewth an Aussie
makes a stand on his T-shirt statement

Airline staff argued the t-shirt, which bears an image of the US president
with the slogan 'World's number 1 terrorist', was a security risk or an item
likely to upset passengers.

The bloke cleared security and was ready to board, when he decided to really
"rub some Quantas nose". Unfortunately, he should have waited until he
actually got to London! Full

Public Domain Content Research

I ask all editors and article approvers at LPR to keep a watch for articles that may contain new business opportunities.

To be fair, most of the Multi Level Marketing (MLM) schemes are really just pyramid marketing scams.

About five weeks ago, AnnE sent over the article below with a link to http://www.gutenberg.org/

Public Domain Content is the big new news and might well be worth investing some time exploring the options.

Top article of the month:

Creating Your Products From Public Domain Content

One of the easiest things to do with public domain material is to simply make a collection of works. It is best to deal with works that are short, such as poems and short stories. There are several directions that you can go with this. I will give you a few suggestions here. Mind you, these are not the be all and end all. They are just a few of the many things you can do.

The first thing is to go with the most popular public domain poet or author that you can find. Take their most famous works, probably about 8 to 12, and put them into a book. Will there be other books out there with these collections? Probably, but at least you know there will be a demand for them. To get your share of the pie, simply use the advertising methods I've outlined in previous articles and get the word out. You'll make your share of sales with hard work.

Another route you can go is to take the same famous author and find their lesser known works. Then, publish a book with a title something like 'The Unknown Works of' or 'The Little Known Works of' This is certainly to draw some interest from fans of the author who aren't familiar with these works.

Some people take a totally different direction. They look for works from a relatively unknown author. The first thing they do though is to read these works to see if they are any good. If they find a gold mine, they publish these works using a title something like 'The Literary Genius of the Unknown' The people you are going to attract with this kind of book are avid readers who are constantly looking for old authors that nobody has ever heard of. Believe me, they exist, the authors and the people looking for them.

Now, the above is a small market because there aren't that many of these people. But, there is also almost no competition either. This is kind of like long tail keyword promotion where you find a niche where very few people are doing searches each month combined with a very few number of competing sites coming up in the search. In the case of public domain works, this competition will be even less. Why? The same reason why you took a look at this topic and said to yourself, 'Why would anybody care?' Well, if you just type the words 'public domain' into a Google search engine, you will find over 62 million sites. If there is that much info out there on public domain, then somebody has got to be interested in this stuff, otherwise a lot of people are wasting a lot of time.

The things that you can do with public domain works are limited only by your imagination. The point is, there are a ton of works out there that you don't have to do much with in order to make an income from them. You just have to find the time to put in the legwork to first find the work, and then decide what it is you want to do with it.

And again, for those of you who think there is no money in stuff that is almost 100 years old, take a look at what Walt Disney did and what Ted Turner just recently did with all those public domain movies.

The money is there to be had. You just have to go out and get it.
