A few weeks ago, I went to an audiology appointment I'd been avoiding for over a year. Internally, I knew I could no longer hear as well as those around me. But my fear of learning this from a doctor kept me from facing the truth. Sure enough, I was told I have sensorineural hearing loss; hearing loss so severe, it's usually seen only in those in their late 60's (I just turned 39); and my hearing loss will worsen as times ticks on, necessitating repeated visits to an audiologist – yet another specialist to work into my already overloaded medical schedule! The good news, or so I was informed that day by the doctor, is that I need hearing aids which will allow me to hear typically once again.
But I did not see any of this as good news. It devastated me. I began to cry thinking about having to deal with another regression of my body. I sobbed realizing I will need one more medical device just to have a 'normal' day. Tears fell as I contemplated yet another thing that was "wrong" with my body; how "broken" I am; how tired I am with all the diagnoses, medical equipment, modifications, etc. Quite simply, I suddenly missed my old life – before age 28 when my body worked like nearly everyone else's; where simple, daily tasks weren't challenging; where intense planning didn't go into having a simple dinner out with friends or going to school. I was glued to a pity pot and couldn't seem to stand up and flush!
Two things happened that precipitated my turn around in attitude. The first was a comment the doctor made on my way out. As I wiped away the last of my tears and struggled to get my brave face on for those in the waiting room, he said, "You know, hearing aids are just like your glasses or your powerchair. You don't realize you need them and may not even want them, but they'll be life-changing and life-enhancing." This statement planted a seed for me to ponder later.
The other thing to occur that helped me change my perspective was a post from a friend in the disability community. It was about accepting our disabilities and all that we gain from doing so. It finally clicked in me that everything was fine. I'm not "broken;" nothing's "wrong" with me; I'm wonderful the way I am with my splints, powerchair, Service Dog and soon, my hearing aids. I recalled how I felt at the appointment when I was age 35 – I'd gone in to discuss a prescription for a new manual wheelchair, but my doctor had decided I needed to be realistic and get measured for a powerchair instead. I remember feeling devastated. I worried that I'd look like an elderly person in a powerchair (you know, because that's the worst possible thing! Ha-ha!). I didn't want the powerchair but when I finally got it delivered and rolled around in it, my eyes were open to how freeing it was. It's given me more independence and the ability to better keep up with my young child. I've accepted that I need my chair to live in the best way possible and to obtain movement through the world in which I travel daily as an active member of my community. And, speaking of community, I'll have a new community within the disability community to go to for support, encouragement, ideas, and more and perhaps someday I'll be able to help another HoH (Hard of Hearing) person.
I messaged my friend, Lindsey, thanking her for her post and telling her about my appointment. It's something I've still not shared publicly even though the shame and devastation are gone. Lindsey's always encouraged me, supported me and quite frankly, as a fellow wheelchair user, she inspires me. She was Ms. Wheelchair Tennessee 2018 and I enjoyed following her journey. She runs a website and vlog on YouTube which I urge you to check out.
Being HoH isn't the worst thing that can happen to me. I've certainly dealt with worse already. I accept my need for hearing aids and am looking forward to finding out what I've been missing all this time. Like my powerchair and Service Dog, hearing aids will open doors for me in the areas of independence, dignity, freedom and give me the ability to hear that my disability has robbed me of.

Q: Dynamically changing string - correct value not being submitted? I recently posted another question about how to add content to a string (Dynamically change string with JS?), and I made progress on that front but it seems the updated variable is not being submitted. Am I missing something?
Here is my code:
<script type="text/javascript">
    var selections = 'Gender, ';
    jQuery(".add-to-form").click(function () {
      var title = jQuery(this).attr("title");
      selections += title + ', ';
      console.log(selections);
    });
    var ss_form = {'account': 'XYZ', 'formID': 'XYZ'};
    ss_form.width = '100%';
    ss_form.height = '1000';
    ss_form.domain = 'app-XYZ.marketingautomation.services';
    ss_form.hidden = {'field_XXXXX': selections };
</script>

This works great in that the correct values are showing up in the console log, but when I submit the form and look in SharpSpring the only value getting through is the initial variable value (Gender, ). Do I need to somehow refresh the variable value in the hidden field?
All help is appreciated, thank you!

A: The following line is executed on page load:
ss_form.hidden = {'field_XXXXX': selections };

This assigns the value of selections as it is at that moment. The field_XXXXX property is a separate variable that will not change when you assign a different value to selections later.
So when the click event fires, and you assign a new (longer) value to selections, then only that variable changes. It is not connected to the property above.
How to solve? Just do another assignment to the ss_form.hidden.field_XXXXX property within the click handler:
jQuery(".add-to-form").click(function () {
  var title = jQuery(this).attr("title");
  selections += title + ', ';
  ss_form.hidden.field_XXXXX = selections; // <-------
  console.log(selections);
});

I assume that ss_form.hidden is some API driven way to set a hidden input element, and that this works. If not, make sure to identify the input element that needs to get a new value, which could look like this:
$('#id_of_hidden_input').val(selections);

I had a really embarrassing moment this week. Thankfully, it was in the privacy of my home. But now, the cat's out of the bag as I share the story about photography, floors and foul smells.
I posted it on my iPad and for some reason it is way harder to copy and paste and have it work right. Thank you so much!

Dechreuodd y straeon am Tomos y Tanc a'i ffrindiau ym 1943 pan greodd y Parchedig Wilbert Awdry, oedd yn frwdfrydig iawn am reilffyrdd, straeon i'w fab tair blwydd oed Christopher, oedd yn gwella o'r frech goch. Cafodd y straeon eu cyhoeddi ym 1945, a'u cyfieithu ym 1950 dan y teitl Y Tri Injan Tren, ac fe'u dilynwyd gan Tomos y Tanc (yn Saesneg i ddechrau) ym 1946. Dilynwyd y rhain gan gyfres lwyddiannus o lyfrau.
Ymunodd Awdry â Chymdeithas Cadw Rheilffordd Talyllyn ym 1951 ac fe ysbrydolodd ei brofiadau fel gwirfoddolwr ar y rheilffordd nifer o lyfrau am Reilffordd Skarloey.
Ym 1979, saith mlynedd ar ôl i'r Parchedig Awdry ysgrifennu ei lyfr olaf am Tomos, gwerthwyd hawliau teledu y straeon a chafwyd y gyfres lwyddiannus Tomos y Tanc a'i Ffrindiau. Lledaenodd brand Tomos ar draws y byd.
Ym 1983 ysgrifennodd Christopher Awdry ei lyfr cyntaf am Tomos, Really Useful Engines. Mae Christopher a'i deulu hefyd yn gweithio ar reilffordd Talyllyn ac ym 1996 daeth yn Llywydd y Gymdeithas.
Stories about Thomas the Tank Engine and friends began in 1943 when railway enthusiast the Reverend Wilbert Awdry created tales for his three year old son Christopher, who was recovering from measles. They were published in 1945 as The Three Railway Engines, and were followed by Thomas the Tank Engine in 1946. A successful series of books followed.
Awdry joined the Talyllyn Railway Preservation Society in 1951 and his experiences as a volunteer on the line inspired a number of books about the Skarloey Railway.
In 1979, seven years after the Reverend Awdry wrote his last Thomas book, sale of the television rights to the stories led to the hit series Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends. The Thomas brand spread worldwide.
In 1983 Christopher Awdry wrote his first Thomas book, Really Useful Engines. Christopher and his family also work on the Talyllyn and in 1996 he became the Society's President.
Yma, mae stydi'r Parchedig W V Awdry yn Stroud, Swydd Gaerloyw wedi cael ei hail-greu'n rhannol, gan ddefnyddio'r dodrefn gwreiddiol. Erbyn iddo symud i Stroud, roedd y Parchedig Awdry wedi ymddeol fel awdur Cyfres y Rheilffordd ac fel Offeiriad Plwyf, ond roedd yn dal i dreulio'r rhan fwyaf o'i amser yn ei stydi, yn ateb llythyrau gan edmygwyr, yn ymchwilio ac ysgrifennu am hanes rheilffyrdd, ac yn cyfansoddi pregethau.
This is a partial reconstruction of the Reverend W V Awdry's study in Stroud, Gloucestershire, using his original furniture. Although by the time he moved to Stroud the Reverend Awdry had retired both as a writer of The Railway Series and as a Parish Priest, he still spent most of his time in his study, replying to letters from fans, researching and writing about railway history, and composing sermons.

Huang YueFeng's Wonder Blade has just hit the Apple App Store, and this should be the perfect game for those who feel nostalgic about '80s and '90s arcade gaming, but want something more than the usual hyper-casual fare Ketchapp and other companies deliver. In here, you play the role of a knight fighting a variety of different enemies, from goblins to spiders to golem-like creatures, and improve your knight as you go along, improving your skills and upgrading your spells. There are tons of levels to complete in this game, as well as more than enough mini-games to break the monotony of fighting enemies with weapons and/or spells.
Previously, we brought you a beginner's guide for this game, where we talked about the basics of completing levels, managing your character, and defeating some of the easier, more basic enemies you will be facing in this title. In our new Wonder Blade strategy guide, we're going to move on to more intermediate-level tips, discussing some tips and tricks you can use when facing some of the tougher enemies in the game. Read on if you're looking to progress faster in this game and have a better chance of winning those boss battles, including the harder ones that you might have had to repeat multiple times before winning!
As we said in our first Wonder Blade guide, not every stage in the game (and not every boss encounter) will require you to take out waves of enemies in the conventional manner. Sometimes, you'll have to do something else to defeat the enemies, and that's where the minigame mechanic of this title comes in — not everything is about swinging your weapon and casting spells.
One of the more common types of minigames you'll encounter is something we like to refer to as the "chase" minigame. We call it as such because that's what the bad guys are trying to do in these stages — your objective is to lose your enemies and make it to safer ground, aka the very end of the level, without getting killed on the way there. Sometimes you'll have to dodge enemy projectiles as well while trying to run away to safety, or take out all the enemies before moving on to the next phase. So what can you do to increase your chances of finishing these minigames/stages?
Talking about the chase minigame that starts out the Sharp Teeth Bay level, it's best to stay in the corners and refrain from veering more than one lane away from the corners, and always returning to that safe spot after you've thrown a barrel at the middle enemy. Alternately, you can focus mainly on the leftmost or rightmost enemy and launch the barrel at just the right time, so as to prevent them from launching bombs your way. Keep this up until one corner enemy is gone, then work your way to the middle then to the opposite corner — once you've taken one enemy out (this could take some time), you'll only need one barrel each for the other two.
Once you've survived this stretch, you'll then be asked to avoid the obstacles, and while this could take some practice, this is very easy in concept — simply move out of the way once you see an exclamation point popping up ahead of you. If it pops up in the middle, move to the left or the right at the moment you see the exclamation point, and if pops up in a corner, then move to the middle.
After you've cleared that phase, the enemies will return on their mouths for another run. This will then be followed by a second phase of obstacles to avoid before you reach the end of the minigame. That's just an example of what to expect in those chase minigames, and as you can see, acing these mini games is a matter of staying alert at all times.
Not all of the minigames in Wonder Blade are required for level completion, and not all of them are fraught with peril. Specifically, the ones that take place after a level's big boss battle are more in the tradition of those Super Mario minigames where you try collecting as many coins as possible within a given timeframe, but don't need to deal with any enemies. In this game, these post-boss fight minigames may require you to break as many barrels as possible within a minute, or destroy the car with your weapon within that same one-minute span of time. For the former, and other minigames with similar mechanics, you need to break as many as possible to ensure yourself of a greater chance to win more rewards once it's over. For the latter, we recommend working all corners of the car to ensure its fast destruction and more coins won for destroying it well before your one minute has expired.
Once you reach the Savage Cave level, you'll encounter the first enemies that we can say are completely different from the low-level minions you may have encountered in the earliest stages. Regardless whether you prefer to refer to them as blobs, green slime, or whatnot, these pesky little creatures attack by clinging onto you, and in order to get them off of you, you'll need to hit the Y button rapidly in order to break free.
So far, we've noticed that the best way to deal with the blobs is to do a lot of jumping, specifically jumping, then hitting the "A" button to perform an aerial spinning move. We aren't quite sure why this has worked so well, but it just does; standing back and hitting the blobs with magic also helps, but not as much so when you're dealing with the larger blobs, which appear prior to the final boss battle in the Savage Cave. What happens here is that each of the blobs will become much larger at some point in this battle; they may be comparatively easily to deal damage on, but they can be quite pesky, and quite determined as they keep chasing at you and trying to cling to you.
These slimy creatures won't be the only unusual ones you'll encounter in Wonder Blade, but if you know what to do against them, they shouldn't be giving you too many problems in the long run.
At first, fire will be the only tool you have when it comes to magic attacks against the enemy, but as you keep leveling up and progressing in the game, you'll have more options in the magic department, including your ice spells. Using ice could freeze your opponents in place and make it easier for you to attack, but based on what we've seen, ice doesn't really do much damage as fire in its default form. Once upgraded, you can also encase yourself in ice as a defensive maneuver, though you may find it much easier to use it as a means of slowing down the enemies.
More spells will become available as you keep playing the game and leveling up, just as we said above.. Just tap on the bottom right button to the left side of the main buttons, and you can toggle between spells at any point during a battle. This could be a good way to throw those bad guys off, so use this ability as wisely as possible!
Although it's all well and good to use weapons and magic to string together a formidable combo, the most powerful move you can pull off in Wonder Blade is the Ultimate Technique. If you notice that the orb on the upper left of your screen is burning (or doing something similar for other spells such as your ice-related spells), that means you've filled it up completely and are all set to unleash the Ultimate Technique. This is an ultra-powerful attack based on whatever spell you have active, and it's best used if you're up against one of the game's tougher and more powerful bosses. Resist the temptation to use it early on, because one Ultimate Technique on a few inconsequential goblins or other enemies would simply be wasted — you can beat them with a weapon or with your regular spells, so there's no need to activate the attack when there's nothing making the game especially hard for you.
The Goblin King — he doesn't seem to have a name, but that's what the Savage Cave's boss appears to be — is one of the tougher bosses you'll take on in the earlier levels, and a lot of it is because he's a virtual freak of nature out there, with unbelievable size and strength, and even fantastic speed that allows him to quickly catch up with your character. On top of all that, he also appears to be deceptively smart — don't mistake him for a cretin just because he mostly communicates in grunts and growls!
There's no two ways about it — the Goblin King won't be an easy foe to knock out. So in order for you to win your boss battle against him, you'll have to come prepared. Make sure you've been grinding it out in levels you've already completed, and save enough money to buy one potion and one Phoenix Feather at the Traveling Merchant Tent. You'll need all of that in order to have enough life to outlast the Goblin King, who can chase you from one end of the screen to the next, lob bombs wherever you're moving to, and quickly react to whatever plans you've employed. He also happens to be resistant to magic, or at least whatever magic spells you've unlocked at that point.
If the Goblin King has one weakness, it's that he gets tired. (Don't we all, though?) Notice those times when his eyes become red and his facial expression looks more pained than angry. That's when you should attack him, because for about two or three fleeting seconds, he's going to be virtually useless out there. You can try using your spinning move while jumping to throw him off and get some offense in without getting hurt too much, but it might be best to play evasive for the most part, and only attack the Goblin King if he gets close enough.
Once again, make sure your Phoenix Feather and potion(s) are ready, because you might need to get back into the boss fight after he kills you the first time around, or survive just a little longer to beat the Goblin King once and for all.
Once you make it to Sharp Teeth Bay, you will encounter yet another type of enemy, the final one whom we will be spotlighting in this intermediate Wonder Blade strategy guide. On the first stage of this level, you will be confronted by a group of spiders — giant spiders, to be sure, but still much smaller than your character is. Their thing is lobbing poison spit your way, and that green ooze they spit out happens to be quite deadly! Small as the gobs are, they're nasty enough to take out more hit points than previous enemies did.
When dealing with spiders, we found them to be rather squishy, but when it came to aiming our weapons or magic at them, it was much harder, due to the need to avoid those poison gobs. The best thing to do is to stay as far away from the poison as possible, but not so far away that your magic won't hit. Jumping is another good way to avoid getting hit by the poison, and you can also use your jump to set up a spin move and do some damage on the spiders.

Tony D'Aquino's The Furies is no exception.
Airlie Dodds (Rain Taylor in Neighbours and Bridie in Ready for This) is Kayla the de facto leader of The Furies, a group of women who have been kidnapped and forced to participate in a Hunger Games, kill-or-be-killed style of enigmatic experiment, cryptic competition.
In Greek mythology, the Furies or Erinyes, were three sisters who were warrior goddesses. They dealt out revenge to evil men who deserved to be punished.
The men (or Beasts as they are called) in The Furies are maniacs who get their fashion sense from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre's Sawyer Family or Jason Voorhees' "slack-jawed yokel" look from Friday The 13th Part Two. They are stylishly dressed in dingy overalls, creepy masks made from human skin and accessorize their outfits with machetes, scythes, knives and pitch forks.
Like the other Furies, Kayla woke up in a black box in the middle of a forest near an old mining town. The battleground is surrounded by sensors which prevent any of the Furies or the Beasts from beating a hasty retreat so it is a battle royale without the Japanese high school students, of course.
The Us versus Them mentality among the Furies and the Beasts isn't as clear cut as one would think though. Both sides also turn on each other adding another layer to the survival duel.
The Furies isn't a complicated affair and it doesn't need to be as the human drama between the Furies themselves and the sensationally sick special effects by TeePee Studios and Dreamgate VFX are what stoke this film's engine keeping it moving forward at a rapid pace. The axe blade-to-the-face scene is excruciating. It isn't as horrendous as the mouth-to-the-fireplace scene from Argento's Deep Red but it's close.
The Furies doesn't quite reach the bar set by Series 7: The Contenders, The Running Man, Rollerball or The Hunger Games. It doesn't need to though. There is enough blood, gore and suspense to get your heart pumping.

In Depth: First Look: Vuzix M100 smartglasses Great
Get the most recent Tips on Mobile Phones:
While Google Glass may be the much better known face of wearable increased reality gadgets, Vuzix was on the show floor at CES 2014 flaunting the very first wise glasses offered to the public.
Called the Vuzix M100 is an Android-based wearable computer first made its look at CES 2013 as a product demo. Now with the M100 being somewhat closer to its last build and delivering to customers, we got a chance to go eyes-on with the heads-up display.
Looking through the M100
Like the Google Glass, the Vuzix M100 provides users with a heads up display simply a couple of inches away from their eyeball. The essential distinction here being instead of forecasting info onto a clear eyepiece, Vuzix makes use of a mini 428 x 240 color-LCD.
On paper, taking a look at the M100's miniature screen is akin to looking at a 4-inch mobile gadget from 14-inches away. In actual practice, the screen pops into the corner of our eye wrapped in a thin black frame that still lets us see plenty of our peripheral vision.
The screen stays on and in view at all times, but we'd to glance over sometimes to focus in on any text that was on the display. It also takes a bit of setup time to extend the flexible arm the screen comes connected to and flex it into view. Entirely unlike Glass, which we can simply toss on and use.
Visual aesthetics aside, the Vuzix built up the M100 to be a standalone Android gadget total with a 1GHz OMAP4430 processor with 1GB of RAM and 4GB of storage.
On top of the hardware, the computer headset we played around with came running Android Ice Cream Sandwich. A Vuzix speaker stated that they also plan on creating an icon based overlay that users can browse with motions recorded with a light sensing unit on the major body of the M100.
Limited build
The demo M100 construct we our hands on with was extremely limited. On the trade convention floor Vuzix chose to disable the motion noticing light on the side along with all the buttons on the device itself. So rather of making use of the gadget ourselves, we got an assisted tour with an Android smartphone push-button control the optic over Wi-Fi.
We were revealed two functions involving the video camera, among which directed a regular video feed originating from the M100's 5-megapixel electronic camera, which can likewise stream video directly to a computer over Wi-Fi.
The other, on the other hand, was able to translate a sign from Italian to English and overlay the translation on top of the actual real-life object. Beyond these 2 functions, Vuzix hopes it and other developer will have the ability to develop better applications for down the line.
A Vuzix speaker stated the M100 has a 600mAh battery that lasts eight hours on standby. This battery life, nevertheless, ends up being dramatically reduced to two hours when using hands-free calling mode and the screen at the same time. Thankfully it comes with a portable power pack that includes an added 3800mAh of power for 6.5 times more energy.
Very early verdict
The Vuzix M100 develop has a lot of missing or still to be developed functionality and it's a hardly a wise glass platform we can suggest considering its high $999.99 or ₤ 799.99 (about AUD$ 1112.71) cost. The majority of the M100 is still in progress, which is an embarassment considering it packs all the normal smartphone hardware, including gyroscopes, into small headset.
Perhaps a future, even more full build will be more tantalizing, however for now the Vuzix M100 is best left on the shelf for designers and resourceful industries that in fact have the budget plan to blow a marvelous on brand-new technologies.

US-China Trade War Kills Up To 245,000 Jobs: Study | Business and economic news
Indian Village Applauds Kamala Harris Before US Inauguration | News about race issues
Australia vs India cricket news, Cummins backs 'brilliant' Paine
The trade war between the United States and China was started by Trump in an attempt to protect American jobs, but a study released Thursday found it was in fact costing the United States up to 245,000 jobs.
US President Donald Trump's trade war with China has resulted in a loss of up to 245,000 US jobs, but a gradual reduction in tariffs on both sides would spur growth and result in 145,000 more jobs by 2025, study commissioned by the United States and China. Business Council Trade Shows (USCBC).
The group, which represents the main US companies doing business in China, said the Oxford Economics study also includes an "escalation scenario" that estimates that a significant decoupling of the world's two largest economies could reduce US gross domestic product of $ 1.6 trillion over the next five years. years. That could lead to 732,000 fewer jobs in the United States by 2022 and 320,000 fewer jobs by 2025, he said.
The study was released just days before President-elect Joe Biden took office and began a major analysis of U.S. trade policy, including consultations with Democratic allies on the punitive U.S. tariffs imposed by Trump. Biden has said he does not anticipate any immediate changes to Trump's tariffs, but said he will work with his allies to pressure China to change its trading behavior.
USCBC President Craig Allen, who has supported Trump's efforts to change China's trade and technology transfer policies, said it was important for the group to articulate the consequences of political choices in the relationship. American-Chinese.
"In the case of tariffs, it's very important that we understand the full economic cost of those choices," Allen said at a briefing.
The study estimates that U.S. exports to China support 1.2 million jobs in the U.S. and that Chinese multinational companies directly employ 197,000 Americans, while U.S. companies invested $ 105 billion in China in 2019.
"With China expected to generate about a third of global growth over the next decade, maintaining access to the Chinese market is increasingly critical to the global success of US businesses," the study said.

DAVID James has support from within the dressing room to be England's No1 but faces a battle to convince Fabio Capello he should start in goal against the USA on Saturday.
Capello spent yesterday's training session at the team's Royal Bafokeng HQ scrutinising his options for the Group C opener in Rustenburg, after making a point of watching his goalkeepers on a separate pitch away from the squad.
Robert Green and Joe Hart played 45 minutes in the practice match against the Platinum Stars on Monday and Green is thought to be slightly ahead of his younger rival .
Yet there is a feeling among certain members of the squad that James, who has started only one of England's last 11 official games, is more vocal and a better organiser.
There have been concerns over a long-standing knee problem that has dogged James, 39, and England are considering different ways for him to train, but he is adamant he was fit to play against the Platinum Stars.
James – who will be a free agent this summer and is interesting Fulham and West Ham – now faces an anxious wait to see if he can jump to the front of the queue.
Capello was unhappy with the distribution of Hart, 23, in Monday's practice game, but is mindful that he has been exceptional in training.


At Walks of Italy we're passionate about showing you the best of Italy in written guides and in real life, with our expert guided walking tours. If you're planning a trip to Italy, take a look at our full selection of small group tours.
Although it's most famous as the setting for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Verona has much more to offer than its connections to the star-crossed lovers! In fact, there's little evidence that anything like the Romeo and Juliet story actually took place here… but it is indisputable that you won't be short of sights in this beautiful city, even if you ignore Juliet's "balcony" and "tomb." (The city's rich culture and history, in fact, even have landed it on the World Heritage list!).
Northern Italy is full of beautiful towns and UNESCO World Heritage sites, and Verona is definitely on the top of the list of places to visit in Northern Italy. Located just a half hour away from Venice by train, it makes an excellent day trip!
Still not convinced? Here are 7 of our favorite sights in Verona.
By day, Piazza delle Erbe is home to a market (if one that sells mostly souvenirs and trinkets); in the evening, it fills with locals and tourists sipping Campari and enjoying aperitivi at the outdoor cafes. But no matter when you're passing through the square, look around you! With its Renaissance-era palaces and lovely central fountain, this might just be the prettiest piazza in all of Italy.
Built in the 1st century A.D., this amphitheater was Verona's answer to Rome's Colosseum (although actually, it predates the Colosseum by almost 50 years!). Still remarkably well preserved, today it's home to Verona's summer opera festival. (Check out our earlier post on attending opera in the arena of Verona!).
This beautiful church dates back to the 4th century, although most of the current building was constructed between the 10th and 12th centuries. Other churches in Verona drew much of their inspiration from its early Romanesque style. Don't miss the bronze door, with 48 elaborately-carved panels of scenes from the Bible, dating back to the 11th century.
With seven towers, a castle keep, and four separate buildings, Verona's 14th-century fortress, Castelvecchio, is the city's most imposing building. Today, it's also home to a museum of art, sculpture, coins, and other artifacts, with a collection of paintings that includes pieces by northern Italian masters Mantegna, Bellini and Pisanello.
This ancient Roman gate, which once marked the southern entrance into Verona, is a great—and beautiful—example of the way in which ancient ruins are layered into the modern city of Verona.
Verona's main cathedral, or Duomo, is stunning. But don't just see it from the outside: The interior of this 12th-century church is incredibly elaborate and filled with artistic gems, including a painting by the Italian master Titian.
Tombs don't get much more elaborate than these! Just around the corner from Piazza delle Erbe, these five Gothic funerary monuments, considered some of the best examples of Gothic art in Itay, are hard to miss. They belong to members of the Scaligeri, who ruled Verona in the 13th and 14th centuries. Make sure you duck into the tiny, lovely church of Santa Maria Antica behind them.

Hi there, yes, the buses are pretty easy to navigate in Verona, although really the only one you would need is from the train station into the center. Let us know if we can help with anything else!
Hey, I first want to thank you for all these articles on this blog, has helped me hugely in planning my trip in June.
Was wondering though, I really would like to go visit Verona based on this article, however I am worried that it might not fit my flight schedule.
I am leaving from Milan Bergamo, but before this I have 2 nights to spend in an area of my choice in Northern Italy. Originally I was planning on Verona because I was planning on a day trip to Venice as well. Then leaving from Verona to Bergamo on the day of my flight.
We're happy to help! Verona is definitely possible, but of course makes for a full day! Alternatives might be a day on Lake Como or Maggiore; Padova (where the Basilica di San'Antonio and Giotto's amazing Cappella degli Scrovegni are wonderful); Vicenza, with the architecture of Andrea Palladio; or even Milan. Let us know if we can help with anything else!
Hi, i am planning to visit Verona in this coming September. We will leaving from Milan for a day trip to Verona and back to Milan again leaving to Switzerland. I know there are two types of train to Verona.. One is Regional which is a slower train but cost cheaper compare to another one. May i know i can buy the train ticket online or buy it on the day we travel? Which train station leaving from Milan?
The most central station in Milan that the train to Verona departs from is Milano Centrale. You can buy the ticket on the day you travel, but if you're fairly sure of your itinerary, it's best to buy it in advance. That's because you can get better, cheaper fares in advance. It's also because, in some instances, routes sell out on the day of travel (although this is more rare).
1. we would really appreciate if you could suggest us where to stay because we need a very safe n comfy place since we are both girls, we want a mid ranged hotel not very expensive just decent enough and safe.
2. also will it be possible for us to make a day trip to Venice and Florence like one day up down ??
Its our Dream Trip..please help !!
We're happy to help! Verona is a very safe city, so no need to worry there; just try to pick something central for convenience's sake. We especially like B&B Corte delle Pigne, which is well-priced and very central but still on a tranquil side street, but there are lots of options in Venice—we'd recommend taking a look on Tripadvisor, especially at the B&Bs listed (as B&Bs tend to be better value in Italy than most hotels).
For day trips, a day trip to Venice is going to be much easier than to Florence, as it's only a half an hour away by train. Of course, you can also do Florence, but it'll make for a longer day; it takes 1hr 45 mins at the fastest route, including a train change.
Is it safe for a woman to walk around alone in Verona?
Absolutely—like most of Italy's cities, especially smaller ones, it's extremely safe. Enjoy your trip!
I am still confused about the train from venice to verona. Best way to take a group of 15 on the train? Does train have a handicapped ability for one student on a scooter? Can she get around Verona on her scooter? Train website is confusing as to price of the ticket also.
Hi Marilyn! We would suggest looking into renting a small bus with a driver to easily move from Venice to Verona as many companies offer discounted rates for medium to large sized groups. Group tickets can be purchased with Trenitalia for regional trains with 10% discount, but should be purchased in person at least 15 days beforehand. Keeping in mind that very few towns in Italy are particularly handicapped-accessible, Verona should be a manageable city to get around, but please be aware that there are many cobblestones. Do let us know if you have any questions!
Hi there, I am looking to move from London to Verona. Could you give me some areas in and around Verona that would be worth considering in terms of living? Also, do you need a scooter/car in this city?
We arrive in Venice and are going to Florence and Verona. We are in Italy for 12 days not counting air travel. My wife wants a leisure trip. I think we could also see Bologna and/ or Milan. What do you think. Would we be able to see all the sights in these cities or would this schedule be to hectic.
Ciao Brian, we think 12 days should be enough to visit all the cities on your list as you usually only need a day or two to visit Verona, Bologna and Milan. Let us know if you have any questions!
Ciao Diane, we suggest you to take the train to Verona Porta Nuova (the main station) so you can easily visit the city's main sights. Let us know if you have any questions!
we are in Verona now. It's our fourth trip to Italy, and I have to say, I find Verona the most exciting. Venice and Florence are great, but Montova and Verona should be experienced. The Verona Marathon was run today, so the city is packed with young people. So many sights to see, but the best part is mixing with the friendly people.
My sister and I will be visiting Italy next year as part of our tour of Europe. We are travelling by car and will be staying overnight in Ravenna. Would it be worthwhile to visit Verona on our way to Venice? We would only have about 2 or 3 hours to stop and visit. If we did, where would be the best place to leave the car? Can you walk from place to place easily (we are in our early 60's) or is there a hop-on-hop-off tourist bus that will take you around?
There is a hop-on hop-off bus too, which starts right by the arena.
Planning on going to Verona from Venice and then onto Lago Garda….
First: at the central train station in Verona, is there a place to leave my luggage for the day?
Second: I believe there is a bus from Verona to Lago di Garda….is this true? If so, do you know from where it departs?
Looking for itinerary and cost for one day tour in Verona for 4 adults. Arrive by train from Venice in early AM on a Monday in May and need to leave by train at end of day to Parma.
Unfortunately, we are not currently offering any services in Verona at this time. However, we have many day tours here for you during your stay in Venice. You can find our Venice tours here. You can find trains from Verona to Venice on http://www.trenitalia.com. Have a great trip!
I am traveling with my husband and 6 year old from Venice to Verona by train leaving after lunch and coming back at night. We just plan to see Juliets balcony and one or two other sights. Can we walk to the attractions from the train station?
Verona is a great day trip from Venice – we're sure you'll love it! You can walk from the train station, though it will take about 20 minutes and might not be ideal for the little one. Instead, you can go by taxi or by taking one of the many buses stopping right in front of the Station to Piazza Bra, the main square in front of the Arena. Another option is to use Verona's free bicycle service. You can get keys from train station tourist information office at the train station and use the bicycles from 9:00 to 17:00. Unfortunately the number of bicycles is limited and you cannot reserve them, but it could be worth a try. Let us know if you have any other questions!
Hi there. My boyfriend and I are thinking of vacationing in Verona for a few days in October. Are there any local festivities around that time and how would you suggest spending 3 days travelling in and around Verona? Thanks much!
Though we don't know of a specific festival going on in October in Verona, sagre, or local food festivals, are common throughout the autumn in all of Italy. You might find one during your time there. Still, Verona is a great place to spend a weekend! After seeing all the sights in the city, you could day trip to nearby Mantova or Lake Garda, or even to Venice!
Many of the suggestions in our Venice Day Trips post are applicable to Verona as well. Maybe it can help you decide where to go! Some of the most popular day trips from Verona are to Lake Garda or a a day trip to beautiful Venice. Have a great trip!
Hello, great little write up! Where is the top picture taken from? It's a great view and I'd like to check it out.
Glad you liked it! Unfortunately we don't know where the pictures is from, sorry!
You can buy tickets when you arrive or you can visit with a local guide on our Verona day trip from Venice tour. Have a great trip!

Adrian follows in father's footsteps
A Birmingham funeral director is maintaining a family tradition after qualifying at the same firm his father served for more than 35 years.
Adrian Cant, 33, has completed the final steps to qualify in the senior role at Northfield-headquartered Mortons Funeral Directors – and took charge of his first funeral as a director earlier this month.
His dad, Andrew, retired as a funeral director from Mortons earlier this year.
Adrian joined the firm on work experience when he was just 16 years old, and was offered a full-time role with the company the following year. He began his working life as a funeral operative, went on to complete his driving qualifications and rose through the ranks over the years. On the way he became a qualified embalmer and member of the British Institute of Embalmers and worked as a funeral arranger before moving into his current role.
Mortons, which has offices in Birmingham's Northfield, Rubery and Cotteridge, is celebrating its 120th year this year.
The firm's Managing Director, Derek Case, said: "It's highly unusual, in my experience, to have a father and son both work as a funeral director at the same company. Between them, they have more than 50 years' experience, which means Adrian is steeped in the Mortons way of doing things, by which I mean offering the highest standards and treating everyone with dignity and respect.
"Adrian's father lived and breathed Mortons' values all his working life, and I'm pleased to say it's very much a case of 'like father, like son.' We are incredibly proud of what Adrian has achieved. He goes above and beyond for our clients and is constantly striving to exceed expectations in the service we provide."
Adrian, who lives in Bromsgrove, said: "My dad always instilled in me a sense of loyalty and duty when it comes to my working life, and it's been a privilege for me to learn from him and from the team at Mortons in order that, ultimately, we can offer a truly personal service to our clients."
Outside of work, Adrian is a devoted father of three who enjoys golf, motorbikes and cars.

To 'King Cuomo,' cutting New Yorkers' taxes is treason
By Chris Collins
October 29, 2017 | 8:03pm | Updated October 30, 2017 | 4:14pm
Rep. Chris Collins (R-NY) Getty Images
The United States was founded by patriots who waged war against unjust and imperial taxes levied upon them by King George III.
While I fight in Washington to lower taxes on working families, another "king," Gov. Andrew Cuomo, demands more money from the hardworking people of New York to feed his never-ending appetite for wasteful spending.
GOP rep pledges property tax, mortgage deduction plan
WASHINGTON – Homeowners would get a choice between deducting property...
Only an imperial governor like Cuomo would label my efforts to fix the tax code as "treasonous," as he did last week, reacting to my support for reform that would cut taxes for most New Yorkers while removing the state and local deduction. Despite what Cuomo claims, I've said all along I believe an accommodation will be made for high-tax states like New York.
New York is the highest-taxed, most regulated, least business-friendly state in the nation. Our children and grandchildren are fleeing to more tax-friendly states elsewhere, while self-appointed King Andy bankrupts New York.
In this war against senseless taxation, I will continue to call out the oppressiveness of King Andy's reign on behalf of my constituents in upstate New York and all hardworking Americans.
Despite years of promises to address our out-of-control income and property taxes, Cuomo has failed to deliver. Now, as Congress is on the verge of delivering historic tax reform, King Andy is yet again playing the blame game, putting his own presidential aspirations ahead of the interests of the New Yorkers who elected him.
In imperial fashion, King Andy has wasted billions of dollars to prop up special-interest allies. New York's overall spending trails only California's, which has double the Empire State's population.
What my constituents in upstate New York want, and what Congress will provide, is real tax reform that lets families keep more of their paycheck and creates more good-paying jobs.
Much to King Andy's chagrin, I voted yes last week to create a path for comprehensive tax reform. While he only wants policies that pave the way for his inheritance of Bernie Sanders' mantle as the Democratic nominee for president, I refuse to pass up the opportunity to give New Yorkers the largest federal tax overhaul, reform and tax cut in decades.
The framework for tax reform I support will lower taxes on small businesses and corporations, allowing them to invest more money into their businesses, compete on the world stage and create the jobs we so desperately need. It will also lower the tax bill for most New Yorkers, putting more money in their pockets.
For that, King Andy claims I'm a traitor.
Siblings who claimed paying taxes was 'against God's will' ordered to pay $1.4 million
State attorneys general sue IRS over charitable contributions
Increased immigration may be a boon for social security
Politicians can't stop spending -- and they don't want to
Like our founders fleeing the tyranny of King George to the New World, nearly 200,000 New Yorkers have fled King Andy's realm in the last year alone. Joining these New Yorkers are thousands of small businesses that cannot tolerate a destructive environment that saddles them with high taxes and oppressive regulations.
Unfortunately, this trend will continue if King Andy doesn't stop his lavish spending and reform New York's outdated tax code.
Markets are up and unemployment is down under President Trump, but the sad fact is that my district still suffers because of King Andy's tyranny. The Buffalo-Niagara region has lost thousands of jobs in spite of the billions Cuomo has wasted on "economic development" projects that have failed to boost the economy and instead served as handouts to favored companies.
Cuomo has proved more interested in guarding his left flank for a possible presidential run than in improving New Yorkers' lives, kowtowing to radical environmentalists and quashing real job creators in the energy sector, such as a fracking.
I'll work with my colleagues in Congress to reform our tax code in a manner that will lead to explosive economic growth, create jobs and put more money in the pockets of middle-income families. I've said all along that I believe an accommodation will be made for high-tax states like New York.
Only a governor who wanted to curry favor with radical liberals would call lowering taxes treasonous. Instead, if King Andy really wants to be a legitimate leader, he should lead his own effort to cut taxes, stop wasteful spending and end the ridiculous regulatory burden for every New Yorker.
Chris Collins, a Republican, represents New York's 27th District.
