can anyone suggest a nice cheap bed and breakfast or hotel near the centre of amsterdam?

January 222010

we are staying in amsterdam in February with our two adult children so we need a nice cheap place to stay mainly because i am paying for every one lol one that is close to all the attractions

I Stayed in the ibis b&b
it was very cheap, warm and comfortable with an included buffet breakfast. It was relatively cheap and dinner/lunch was available but for added cost
it was much nicer to go out for meals. It’s walking distance to Dam square which is where the palace is and you can walk along the canals from the ibis to get there. The staff were lovely and I felt so so safe.
I really couldn’t fault it- it was cheap and cheerful

There was a beef recipe that cam from some bed and breakfast or inn in the eastern mountains that recommended?

January 222010

that you let the beef sit out on the counter overnight (it wasn’t ground beef, it was solid piece) …then it went in the oven the next night, it had a cream sauce that I think had wine in it…I cannot find it to save my life does anyone know a version of this recipe??

It could be so many things. Lots of sauces have wine in them.

Bordelaise-style sauce
Beef Wellington and Madeira Wine Sauce

Hold on a sec. I have an old cookbook named "Cooking with Wine" from 1963. I’m looking through it now. It may provide a clue.

Edit: Nope. Not much help here. I’ve got Beef Round in Sour Cream Gravy. A Burgundy wine & sour cream make the sauce.

Swiss Steak also will have a wine sauce.

Can you call a guest house a chalet?

January 222010

If the guest house is small and is made like a regular house, can you call it a chalet?
What is the style of a chalet?

A chalet is a particular style of house. If your guest house is chalet-style, then you can call it a chalet.

If it’s not chalet-style, you can still call it a chalet, but you’d be lying.

2010=(a to the power of b)+(b to the power of a) What are a and b?

January 202010

Posted in b and b | 1 Comment »

What are a and b and how do you work it out? Or any ideas on how to?

Here’s 1 solution:
1^2009 + 2009^1 = 2010.
This is the only solution in positive integers.
I will prove this result. I don’t know if there
are any other rational a and b that satisfy
a^b + b^a = 2010.
Here’s my proof.
First, 2010 = 2*3*5*67.
Suppose first that a = 2.
Then 2^b + b^2 = 2*3*5*67
We see that b > 1
but then b must be even and
2^b + b^2 is divisible by 4
but the right side is only divisible by 2. Contradiction.
The same thing happens if a = 3.
We have 3^b + b^3 = 2*3*5*67.
Again b>1 and b is divisible by 3
so the left side is divisible by 9 but the right
side is divisible only by 3.
The same idea works for a = 5
Now suppose a = 7
Then 7^b + b^7 = 2010.
Here, b <= 2 since 3^7 = 2187>2010
and b = 1 or 2 doesn’t work.
Finally, if a >= 11,
b > 1 and 2^11 = 2048 already exceeds 2010.
You might want to fill in some slight gaps here
but this proves that (*) is the only solution in positive integers.

I am looking for a cheap bed and breakfast in southsea hants, somthing between £35-£40 a night any suggestions

January 172010


I believe that they have a Travelodge in Southsea that advertises cheap rooms, however do be wary of any b&b’s that you book as parking is a premium in Southsea and you don’t want to find one without a car park.

Also try and get one nearer to the seafront as possible – but maybe think about one in Eastney, which is further away from the centre of Southsea but will be cheaper.

Once there you need to do the DDay Museam, Sealife Centre (but I think it is called something else now). The funfair and the Museam, which is really old and tacky but great fun and the Castle. Also go along to Old Portsmouth and watch the ferries come in and out and have a meal in the Spice Island pub.

can you join a good rock band with a b-stock epiphone guitar?

January 172010

Posted in Uncategorized | 7 Comments »

I have a b-stock epiphone les paul guitar and a Marshall MG 100 combo amp and I was wondering if this was good enough equipment to audition for a good rock band.

As long as you can play and have halfway decent equipment, you will be fine. Epiphone is a good brand and a 100 watt marshall is definitely loud enough. If you get he gig and are still iffy on your sound, maybe replace the pickups with some good Seymour Duncan’s or actual Les Paul PAF’s. You will be fine.
