Twitter Acquires Analytics Company Smallthought Systems
Chris Crum
Twitter announced that it has acquired Smallthought Systems, the creators of Dabble DB, an online database Twitter has used in the past to track and share information about projects internally.
"Every day millions of people use Twitter to create, share and discover information, and as we grow, analytics becomes an increasingly crucial part of improving our service," says Twitter Analytics Lead Kevin Weil.
Really excited. Welcome @avibryant, @andrewcatton, @matasar, and @attaboy to the Twitter analytics team! http://bit.ly/bo45qDThu Jun 10 17:04:48 via TweetDeck Kevin Weil
kevinweil
Twitter used Dabble DB up until last year, when the company "moved that project management tool in-house". "When Smallthought launched Trendly, a tool that helps web sites distinguish signal from noise in their Google Analytics data, we were among the first to try it," says Weil. "And, as Twitter is the world's largest Ruby on Rails-based web service, we are impressed with their frequent contributions to the Ruby and Smalltalk development communities. Their team has a unique combination of entrepreneurship, creativity, and analytics expertise."
The Smallthought Systems team has joined Twitter's analytics team and will focus on integrating ideas from Trendly into Twitter's own tools, as well as building realtime products for Twitter's future, according to Weil. Smallthought's Andrew Catton says:
Obviously this represents a new chapter in the life of Dabble DB, both for us as a team and for the product itself. We'd like to assure you that, for now, we will continue to provide our software and technical support to current Dabble DB customers. However, we will be disabling new account signups effective immediately.
There will be further changes to Dabble's ongoing operations, and when those happen, we want to do right by you. We will provide you with 60 days advance notice of any major change. We will do whatever we need to do to make sure that, at any time, you can export all of your data, including attachments, in a structured format suitable for import into other systems.
Earlier this week, Twitter announced a new link service, which it said will be used for analytical data in the future, and will be taken into consideration for its resonance algorithm – its system for the company's Promoted Tweets offering.

Michigan is Officially a No-Kill Shelter State – The Good News
It's a benchmark that was reached in regards to all the shelters in the state in 2018.
To be considered a no-kill state, all the shelters combined must have 90 percent of animals either returned to owners, transferred to other shelters and rescues or adopted.
The Michigan Pet Fund Alliance (MPFA) started tracking statistics about ten years ago; the numbers are combined from shelters all across the state. Back then, about 120,000 animals were put down in the state every year. Now, the number is less than 13,000.
The head of the MPFA says that there's still a lot of work to be done, especially when it comes to cats. But still, let's take the small victories and move forward, right?!

Phylogeographic patterns in the cp genome of Eucalyptus marginata Don ex Sm., a species common in the mesic region of south-western Australia, were investigated by using RFLP analysis. The chloroplast diversity was structured into two geographically distinct lineages and nested clade analysis inferred historical fragmentation as the major influence on the phylogeographic pattern. The lineages were separated along the geomorphological boundary of the Darling Scarp, which separates the Coastal Plain from the Darling Plateau. The divergence between the lineages is consistent with uplifting of the Darling Plateau in the late Neogene. Further geographic structuring in haplotype distributions was evident in the forest lineage on the Darling Plateau, where one sublineage was present in the central forest region and another was restricted to the south-eastern region. The level of divergence between these sublineages was similar to that between divergent lineages that have been identified in comparative phylogeographic studies of cpDNA variation in three species widespread throughout south-western Australia. In these species, divergence was attributed to the influence of significant changes in climatic oscillations across the semi-arid region during the mid-Pleistocene. The divergence identified in this study indicates that the influence of climatic change was widespread throughout south-western Australia, including the mesic, higher-rainfall region.

When U.S. kickboxing champ Eric Sloane is crippled in the ring by the dastardly Tong Po, his younger brother Kurt (Jean-Claude Van Damme) vows revenge. But if he is to defeat Po, Kurt must first learn a martial art known as Muay-Thai, so he seeks out the expertise of fight guru Xian Chow. Thanks to Chow's unconventional training methods, Kurt becomes an expert kickboxer. But is he good enough to defeat Tong Po?


Not everyone has a home these days – it's a bitter reality that many of us need to face and be reminded of. Fortunately, there are groups and organizations that exist to help the homeless. Join us as we look into how homeless shelters work.
The National Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty currently estimates that at least 2.5 to 3.5 million Americans per year are sleeping in shelters, transitional housing, and public places not meant for human habitation. About 7.4 million more individuals are displaced from their homes due to economic reasons.
In addition, after paying rent and utilities, 75% of extremely low-income households end up with less than half of their income left to pay for necessities such as food, medicine, transportation, or childcare.
Despite efforts of the government to provide for every concern that we have in our community, some people are still left without homes.
How do homeless shelters work?
Some people may have a negative perception when it comes to living in homeless shelters. While not all organizations may be able to provide first-class services as others may expect, these groups are making sure that what they do are to their best efforts for homeless individuals.
A homeless shelter usually starts with a group of individuals who want to develop a plan to help people in the community who need shelter. It eventually grows into a plan to put up a homeless shelter. Most homeless shelters are being funded by sponsors such as hospitals, companies, professionals, and individuals.
Organizations who run homeless shelters (or sponsor them) create events that can benefit homeless individuals. Such charity events are very common, such as lavish gala dinners and small bake-off festivals. For sufficiently funded homeless shelters, they are able to provide programs for homeless people so that they will feel that they belong to the community.
The homeless shelter organization usually sets up a feeding program on a regular basis, wherein they support a certain community particularly the elderly and abandoned children. They also encourage children from well-to-do families to take part in such programs to enrich their minds with positive attitude and to nurture compassion to help the less fortunate.
Some organizations have built shelters that were meant to house homeless individuals until they are able to stand on their own feet. On their part, homeless people are not merely allowed to live in these houses, but they are also taught how to deal with their situation so that they can improve their lives. The transient home serves as a place to lift up their spirits and to look at themselves as people who have hope for improvement.
Homeless children are encouraged to engage in different activities, which teach them to become more sociable and less fearful.
The homeless are often sick, most notably because of poor hygiene. With the help of homeless shelters, homeless individuals are provided basic necessities and taught on how to take care of themselves. Those with medical conditions are given proper care and medication with the help of hospital sponsors and health professionals.
Homeless children suffer the most as they lack the education that other kids may be enjoying. At the homeless shelter, they are not only housed to keep them safe, but also provided with education. In fact, some homeless shelters have buildings intended for different levels of learning.
Adults are given the opportunity to learn how to live in the real world by allowing them to take part in various activities that would teach them the skills that can be of help to them. While their goal is to have their own job once they leave the shelter, they also are required to attend seminars and workshops to mold their skills and talents.
People who run homeless shelters believe that everyone is capable of doing great things with the proper foundation on how to get things done. By doing this, the homeless may face the world without fear and worry, and may be able to sustain the needs of their families.
A number of homeless individuals may have been hooked on illegal substances. The homeless shelter helps by providing them the necessary medical and psychological assistance to help them get back to their normal lives.
Homeless individuals usually check in between 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM. The shelter allows individuals to stay in for the night or a couple of days. Exceeding the allowable number of days will mean having to pay for each night after.
Before staying in their individual beds, the homeless individuals are required to take a shower. The staff will provide them with clean towels, soap, toothpaste, and a toothbrush.
When it is time to sleep, a clean sheet and pillow will be provided.
One of the major concerns among homeless shelters are bed bugs. This may be apparent particularly where beds are often used by different people and may not have been cleaned often. There have been reports on infestation, but most homeless shelters try to get rid of these parasites to keep the place safe for people inside.
The homeless shelter is a place that provides more than the basic needs of the homeless individuals. It also stands as an institution that provides hope and strength for homeless people to believe in themselves that they can change their lives for the better.

Should Executives Arbitrate? The Empiricists Weigh In
March 10, 2015 | John J. Connolly
Should executives include an arbitration clause in their employment contracts? There's no uniform answer, of course. Arbitration proponents cite its speed, cost, privacy, informality, minimal discovery, and limited appellate rights. Opponents cite pretty much the same list. Volumes have been written about whether arbitration is a better form of dispute resolution than litigation, and we can't resolve that question here.
But thanks to relatively new state laws requiring public disclosure of certain arbitration information, we can look at the question statistically. Even better, people who understand statistics can look at the question statistically, and we can report what they say.
We started by looking at the data set disclosed by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) concerning employment-based arbitrations. (A detailed explanation of the data, and the data itself, is available on this page of the AAA's website.) One field of the data reports the employee's salary in four categories: $250,000 or greater; $100,000 to $250,000; $0 to $100,000; and, regrettably, "not provided by parties." Over the past five years, the AAA database reports about 7700 employment arbitrations (not necessarily separate "cases"; some cases have multiple records, usually reflecting multiple respondents), but only 2912 of these included data for the employee's salary range. The following table shows the breakout of records by salary range:

Hello, Federal: Can Out-of-State Employers Contract Around Maryland's Wage Payment Law?
February 10, 2015 | John J. Connolly
An earlier generation of Baltimore lawyers used to say that the outcome of a case should not depend on which side of Calvert Street it was filed. This made sense when the federal court was on the east side of Calvert and the state court on the west. The statement was a colloquial expression of the Erie doctrine, which requires federal courts to apply state law when federal jurisdiction depends on diversity of the parties' citizenship.
The Erie doctrine requires federal judges to figure out how state judges would rule in certain matters. You might imagine a federal judge strolling across Calvert Street to ask for some advice. But that's not how state and federal judges speak to one another (and not just because the federal court long ago moved to a dismal building on Lombard Street).
Instead, federal judges read the published judicial decisions from the state whose law applies. Under Erie, federal judges are required to follow the holding of decisions from the state's highest court. They are not required to follow "dicta" – statements in a judicial opinion that are not necessary to the outcome. In many cases, the state's highest court has not ruled on the particular legal question at issue. In that event, the federal court must predict how the state court would rule based on other sources of state law. One of those sources is "considered dicta" (or well-reasoned dicta) from the decisions of the state's highest court.
Show Some Consideration
September 29, 2014 | John J. Connolly
Most law students spend several weeks in a first-year contracts class studying the concept of consideration. Consideration, in essence, is what a contracting party receives in exchange for promising to do something. A promise without consideration is not an enforceable contract. If A promises to wash B's car next Tuesday and fails to do so, B cannot sue A on Wednesday, because A's promise lacked consideration. But if A promises to wash B's car and B promises to give A $20, or $1, or a glass of water, the promise is enforceable and B can sue if A fails to perform. Courts generally do not examine the adequacy of consideration, only its existence.
Because consideration can be minimal, many lawyers forget about it after that first year of law school. But it remains a necessary element of most contracts, and it recently arose in a peculiar way in a Connecticut case involving a dispute over an employment contract. See Thoma v. Oxford Performance Materials, Inc., 153 Conn. App. 50 (2014).
The plaintiff in the case, Lynne Thoma, was an employee of a manufacturing company. During her employment the company obtained new financing, and the investor insisted that Ms. Thoma enter into an employment agreement. This "first agreement" gave Ms. Thoma a fixed salary plus benefits for a 24-month period with automatic 12-month renewals. The company could fire her without cause on 60 days' notice, but it would then be obligated to pay her salary for the remainder of the term plus six months. The first agreement also included a noncompete provision for the period of Ms. Thoma's employment plus six months thereafter.
The company almost immediately decided it did not like certain terms of the first agreement and it required Ms. Thoma to enter a second agreement, which by its terms stated that it superseded any prior agreements. The second agreement did not discuss salary or severance, but it expressly stated that Ms. Thoma was an at-will employee. It also included a noncompete provision with apparently inconsistent terms: one section stated that she would not compete "during the period of her employment" and the other said that if she was terminated she would "continue to comply" with the noncompete provision.
The company fired Ms. Thoma about 16 months after the parties executed these agreements. Ms. Thoma sued, claiming that the company breached the first agreement by firing her without notice before her term ended and by failing to pay severance. The company claimed that the second agreement allowed it to fire her without notice at any time and did not require severance payments. But the trial court found, and the appellate court agreed, that the second agreement was not enforceable because it lacked consideration.
October 2013 Monthly Roundup

October was a busy month for us here at Suits By Suits – and, we imagine, for many of you as well. The baseball playoffs shut out our hometown Orioles and Nationals (although our sister office in Tampa got to cheer on, however briefly, the playoff-bound Rays), and the gods of the pigskin haven't been much kinder to the Ravens or Redskins so far. But despite the fickle fortunes of professional sports, we still managed to crank out some pretty interesting content this month; if you missed any of our prior articles, here's a summary and link to each one:

Is An Arbitration Agreement Valid If The Designated Arbitrator Is Unavailable?
October 2, 2013 | William A. Schreiner, Jr.
A Baltimore police officer claimed she was fired because she got married. The police department agreed. The problem was that the officer married Carlito Cabana, an incarcerated murderer and the "supreme commander" of a prison gang called Dead Man, Inc. The question presented was whether the police department's action violated the officer's "constitutional right to marry and to engage in intimate association." The Maryland courts didn't think much of that claim, see Cross v. Baltimore City Police Dep't, and it does seem as though the police department had a point.
But what about Mr. Cabana? Surely Cabana's "employer," nominally a private corporation, could not have been pleased with his choice of spouse, either. (Let's ignore Dead Man's failure to register to do business in Maryland.) Could the Dead Man board have fired Cabana for marrying a cop? Could a legitimate private employer (like the Coca-Cola Co.) have fired an executive for marrying an employee of its mortal adversary (like PepsiCo)?
Does an Executive Have a Duty to Pull Punches In Personal Litigation Against the Company?
January 15, 2013 | John J. Connolly
When a dispute between executive and company reaches the point of litigation, usually the executive's title begins with "former." But not always. Sometimes litigation proceeds while the executive remains an officer or director of the company. How does the executive's fiduciary duty to the company affect her litigation strategy and conduct?

Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde first appeared in 1886. Readers at the time commented - either directly or by implication - on three major influences at work on the text:- Darwinism, the Bible, and Platonism. Although surviving commentaries tend to identify each in isolation, Stevenson employed all three together in his representation and explanation of Edward Hyde. Nor was he alone among authors in combining these seemingly disparate elements. With the passage of time commentators have tended to focus on either the Darwinian or the biblical implications surrounding Hyde; and the Platonic implications have been more or less overlooked. For a full understanding of Hyde all three must be considered; and they must all be considered together. The aim of this dissertation is to locate Edward Hyde within the history of ideas. It examines earlier literature involving apes or ape-like creatures, thereby revealing a tradition which deals with mankind's burden of evil; a tradition in which evil is portrayed in ugly, deformed, and beastly bodies; a tradition which explores and questions the origins of mankind - theological, philosophical, and scientific - in an attempt to account for the presence of our lower impulses; a tradition which links humanity with the beasts - very often, although not exclusively, with the apes. The chosen texts show that, as time passes and knowledge of the natural world increases through exploration and scientific learning, earlier ways of looking at the world, instead of being replaced by new ideas, come to serve as a mythic or poetic way of accommodating such new ideas, absorbing the new and incorporating it into the old mythological framework. The dissertation attempts to demonstrate how this tradition feeds naturally into Stevenson's text, providing a Darwinian-biblical- Platonic context within which to examine Hyde. Stevenson's story, dealing as it does with the timeless theme of evil within the human soul, employs language and imagery which were familiar and accessible to the educated readers of his day, but which are becoming increasingly remote from and unrecognizable to the general reader of today. The object of this dissertation is to provide a literary background from which to interpret the figure of Edward Hyde and his importance as a traditional emblem of sin.

Opinion: The undocumented Irish in the US need and deserve our help
About 50,000 Irish citizens currently live in the US without legal status – we can't just turn our backs on them.
Image: Michael E Halstead via Shutterstock
Jun 19th 2014, 7:30 PM 91 62
THIS WEEK, the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Eamon Gilmore, has been in Washington, DC. He's met with congressional leaders and advocates for immigration reform in the interests of regularising the situation of 50,000 Irish citizens in the US without legal status and creating a pathway to living and working there for future generations of Irish men and women. A picture of the Tánaiste walking the famed corridors of Capitol Hill with the Republican congressional leader and 2012 vice presidential nominee, Paul Ryan, even appeared on Twitter.
The picture, as the old maxim goes, says a thousand words. It is further proof positive of the extraordinary access that this small and strategically unimportant country enjoys in the US.
Indeed, Congressman Ryan, whose positions on economic and social issues place him firmly on his party's right wing, was moved by the persistent entreaties of the Irish Lobby for Immigration Reform. He is now a firm supporter of immigration reform legislation – passed by the US Senate and stalled in the US House of Representatives – which would benefit the undocumented Irish. Congressman Ryan, who is proud of his Kilkenny ancestry, has affirmed that the efforts of Irish people based in the US, such as Billy Lawless and Ciaran Staunton, and Irish politicians, like Senator Mark Daly, played a significant part in persuading him.
Assertions about the undocumented Irish
What's so disappointing to next consider are the assertions made by some on both sides of the Atlantic about the undocumented Irish. In the past, these commentators have opined both that the undocumented are not worthy of the assistance of the Irish Government or of Irish-American politicians and that a "special deal" benefiting solely the Irish is an impossibility because of the changing demographics in the US and the allegedly declining power of Irish America.
Most recently, Colm Quinn, an Irishman living in Washington, DC, wrote in an Irish Times opinion piece earlier this month that what the Tánaiste has been doing this week and similar exercises "are at best missed opportunities and at worst a waste of time". This and other pronouncements in Quinn's piece angered me and many others I know on both sides of the Atlantic. To us, it's profoundly sad that so many Irish people, whose forebears helped make America what it is, now live in limbo, in fear and in the shadows.
How is it a missed opportunity or a waste of time to press the case for fellow Irish people mired in the most unenviable of circumstances? Did they cease to be Irish when they left these shores? The answers to these questions are, in my view, self-evident. Irish political leaders don't just have the option to bring up the undocumented at every opportunity; they have a moral duty to do so. Yet there remains a vocal minority who at times sneeringly disagree and for whom the undocumented Irish in the US are not a priority at any level.
Their sentiments are very difficult for me to accept when I encounter them either in person or in the media. They have equally enraged and surprised me since I moved here more than a decade ago.
A special kinship
Anyone who grew up in the Boston area in the 1980s and early 1990s could be forgiven for thinking that all Irish people want to move to America. From our own ethnic backgrounds and families to incessant interaction with young Irish people on the streets, in the pubs, on the building sites and on the playing fields, every corner of Ireland was in every corner of Boston. I got to know some Irish who had overstayed their visas back then through my family's political work on their behalf; I came to know more later as my own social circle grew; and there are countless others I don't know who have arrived in the years since I've been away.
To me, those I know, those I know to see and those I don't know at all are not just a number – 10,000 or whatever the most recent estimate of undocumented Irish living in Boston and its environs might be. They are people with whom I share a special kinship. They have settled in my native county as I have settled in theirs. This is not to lionise them; they did break the law and many are far from saints. But every time I hear dispatches from Boston about someone having to miss either a sorrowful or joyous event over here, my heart sinks.
A setback or the death knell?
Their hearts, too, have sunk on past occasions when immigration reform looked as if it would finally happen, only to be forestalled as a consequence of some unexpected event. It is with them in mind that I read in the middle of one night last week of another unexpected event: Republican Majority Leader Eric Cantor's defeat by a Tea Party primary challenger who attacked Cantor's position on granting "amnesty for illegals."
My immediate reaction, echoed by prominent observers, was that this outcome would frighten incumbent Republicans and effectively keep House Speaker John Boehner from allowing there to be a vote on immigration reform legislation before this year's mid-term elections and even thereafter. On the other hand, since then, measured analysis of Cantor's defeat suggests that immigration was not the decisive factor. As the Tánaiste has noted, it's more likely a setback than the death knell.
Additionally, the long-term demographic shifts in the US and resulting harsh political realities for the Republican Party haven't changed. Its leaders recognise that they must change the perception that they're anti-immigrant – and fast. Paul Ryan's embrace of a pro-reform stance demonstrates the unique role Ireland can play on this front. Accordingly, it is to be welcomed that the Tánaiste has been on Capitol Hill at this critical juncture.
And as for those who take issue with how he's used his time there this week or with the Irish government's advocacy for its undocumented in the US? I think I'll fall back on some sound motherly advice: if you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all.

FLEGT stands for Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade. The EU's FLEGT Action Plan was established in 2003. It aims to reduce illegal logging by strengthening sustainable and legal forest management, improving governance and promoting trade in legally produced timber.
What is FLEGT?
FLEGT stands for Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade. The EU published the Forest, Law, Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) Action Plan in 2003. The Action Plan sets out a range of measures available to the EU and its member states to tackle illegal logging in the world's forests. These include demand and supply side measures such as the EUTR and VPAs.
It aims to reduce illegal logging by strengthening sustainable and legal forest management, improving governance and promoting trade in legally produced timber.
What is illegal logging?
Illegal logging is the harvesting, processing, transporting, buying or selling of timber in contravention of national and international laws. It has a devastating impact on some of the world's most valuable remaining forests, and on the people who live in them and rely on the resources that forests provide.
What is the EU Timber Regulation?
The EU Timber Regulation aims to reduce illegal logging by ensuring that no illegal timber or timber products can be sold in the EU. It was created as part of the EU's FLEGT Action Plan.
The EU Timber Regulation came into force on 3 March 2013. It prohibits operators in Europe from placing illegally harvested timber and products derived from illegal timber on the EU market. 'Legal' timber is defined as timber produced in compliance with the laws of the country where it is harvested.
The regulation applies to timber and a wide range of timber products, including pulp and paper.
What is a Voluntary Partnership Agreement?
A Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA) is a legally binding trade agreement between the European Union and a timber-producing country outside the EU.
The purpose of a VPA is to ensure that timber and timber products exported to the EU come from legal sources. The agreements also help timber-exporting countries stop illegal logging by improving regulation and governance of the forest sector.
VPA Unpacked provides a series of clear and useful descriptions explaining some of the core concepts around the EU FLEGT Action Plan, Voluntary Partnership Agreements, and the structures and processes that have emerged across different VPA negotiations.
What is FLEGT-licensed timber?
A FLEGT licence is a document that confirms that a shipment of timber or timber products has been legally produced, in accordance with the relevant laws of the country of export. FLEGT-licensed timber and timber products are considered to comply with the requirements of the EU Timber Regulation (EUTR).
The FLEGT Licence Information Point includes answers to dozens of frequently asked questions that cover everything from the basics to complex trade scenarios and how to report any problems.

Argon (IG01), like Nitrogen, is a natural gas, present in the atmospheres, and it's not harmful for human health.
IG55 blend is composed of Argon (50%) and Nitrogen (50%).
Thanks to its versatility, IG55 is one of the most widespread extinguishants in fixed systems.
IG541 blend is composed of Argon (42%) Nitrogen (50%) and CO2 (8%).
During our everyday life we normally breathe inert gases and one of their blends, that we use to call simply "AIR". Nitrogen and Argon are the main elements that we inhale and exhale continuously.

We're very excited to have partnered with Keep Britain Tidy's Eco-Schools England programme. Working in tandem with our school's recycling scheme, Recycle With Michael, the partnership with Keep Britain Tidy will help schools on their journey towards their Bronze, Silver or the much coveted Green Flag Eco-Schools status.
Together we'll encourage stronger awareness of textile reuse and recycling among younger generations and we'll be embarking on a variety of local and national initiatives that will explore a wide range of sustainability issues, such as studying the full life cycle of textiles. This, combined with your school's Recycle With Michael textile collection campaign, will play an important part in helping your school achieve Eco-Schools status.
Morgan Phillips, Keep Britain Tidy's Education Manager said, "We are delighted to be working in partnership with The Salvation Army and their textile reuse and recycling scheme for schools. Through this partnership we hope pupils will not only learn more about the textiles industry in the classroom, they will learn by taking action too!"
help the environment while supporting a charity and progressing your school's journey towards being a Green Flag Eco-School.
Based in Kent, The Discovery School was the winner of our 2015 Eco Stars Challenge, during which we challenged all of our education partners to find ways to increase their donations to win the coveted Eco Stars trophy. The Discovery School successfully collected more textiles per student than any other primary school.
Having launched their Recycle With Michael scheme in October 2014, The Discovery School went on to join the Eco-Schools programme a few months later. Combining sustainability with being kind to the environment is clearly proving to be a winning formula for staff and students alike.
"We joined Recycle With Michael to raise extra funds for the PTA and it has gone from strength to strength. It has even helped us on our Eco-Schools journey," said Claire Gobbett PA to the headteacher. "We find it runs easily and is very popular with students and families.
"We always make sure that we mention the collection scheme in our newsletter, and our bank is very visible in the car park. There are always bags in reception for parents to pick up, although we are really pleased that it seems to be the children driving the donations most of the time. We also make sure that we keep the totaliser poster updated each time we have a collection, so that everyone can see the amount we have collected increasing."
So far, the additional funds raised by the Recycle With Michael scheme have helped the PTA to purchase new outdoor table tennis sets. They have also enabled the PTA to fund the school allotments.

Alfama Where the real soul of the city lies.
The oldest and most emblematic neighbourhood of Lisbon, Alfama is a small medieval village or medina in the heart of the capital. It was spared total destruction by the great earthquake of 1755 due to being founded on the rocky soil of the highest hill of the city.
It is a place that invites you to get lost in its alleys and squares and to let your senses be your guide: seeing fantastic views of the river, hearing the sound of Fado coming from a typical restaurant, savouring traditional dishes and discovering magnificent panels of 'azulejos' (typical Portuguese tiles). Life in Alfama keeps the historical traditions and as you walk down towards the river, you find yourself in the 21st century, with old warehouses now converted into some of the most fashionable places in town.
Founded in 1147, the Lisbon Cathedral (Sé de Lisboa) is one of the city's greatest landmarks as well as an important symbol of the Christian Reconquest of the territory. Massacred by the earthquakes that rocked the city in the 14th century and in 1755, the Cathedral of Lisbon is today a mixture of architectural styles as a result of successive restorations.
Miradouro de Santa Luzia
This is one of Lisbon's most romantic corners. It's a terrace next to a small white church offering views over the rooftops of Alfama and the river, and with places to sit under grapevines. On one of the church's walls a tile panel shows Castelo de São Jorge being taken over from the Moors in 1147, and another of Praça do Comércio before it was destroyed in the 1755 earthquake.
Feira da Ladra (Flea Market)
Fairs and Markets
Street market where a little of everything and anything can be bought and sold: books, records, clothes, paintings and bric-a-brac. Although it is well known as a second-hand market you can also find new items there. On Tuesdays and Saturdays only and we recommend you go in the early morning.
Igreja de São Vicente de Fora
One of Lisbon's historical buildings, it was built in honour of São Vicente, the patron saint of the city since 1173. It is worthwhile going inside and discovering the tiles with scenes from La Fontaine's fables as well as Lisbon's biggest organ which dates from the 18th century.
Museu do Fado
Located in the typical neighbourhood of Alfama, the museum is dedicated to the Portuguese Guitar and to Fado, considered by UNESCO in 2011 as World's Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Castelo de São Jorge, built on one of the city's tallest hills, is one of Lisbon's most emblematic monuments. As a result, the surrounding landscape is magnificent, and the view stretches from the Tejo estuary all the way to the Eastern part of the city.

Miradouro das Portas do Sol
The postcard-perfect views from this terrace above the Alfama district are truly magnificent. It's a must-photograph spot for tourists, who also usually end up sitting for a drink at the kiosk café or at Café Portas do Sol on the terrace below.
Museu das Artes Decorativas
The 18th century palace facing the Portas do Sol viewpoint is home to the Ricardo Espírito Santo Foundation whose collection reveals how nobility lived in the 18th and 19th centuries. Flemish tapestries, Indo-Portuguese furniture, silverware and Chinese porcelain are on display in several rooms with magnificent painted ceilings and walls covered in tiles from top to bottom.
Ótima estadia
De início não gostei.... A recepção era virtual coisa K nunca me aconteceu. Não há muita informação. Mas depois adorei a limpeza era nota dez apartamento muito confortável e com todos acessórios de cozinha necessários. Recomendo e voltarei outra vez.
PERFECT location. Minutes from every thing. Gorgeous view from across the street. Stayed in 3F and had a lovely peaceful terrace which to sip coffee and listen to church bells (even a rooster). The apartment had everything we needed and I loved the restoration of the building and the minimalist decor. The wifi was good and the fruit basket was a nice touch. We arranged transportation to and from the airport with Hello Lisbon and our driver was amazing; gave us advice on things to do and where to go. An all around delightful person. Well done and thank you Hello Lisbon, we will be back!
Great long weekend in Lisbon
The building is well-located in Alfama - a district with narrow, winding streets and plenty of life at weekends. We had apartment (we had 3F - a Superior Studio), which was comfortable and had all facilities needed for some cooking, ironing and a terrace to catch some rays. The keyless code entry for the front door and apartment was useful - the only interaction we had with the reception was to request a code to get into the baggage room to pick up our luggage after the check-out time. The only negative was the wooden floor, which meant that people walking about upstairs caused a bit of a racket, but it's a small negative! It's possible to walk to the main attractions - a couple of trams run past the building, but they're usually full or infrequent. We walked from the Martim Moniz Metro from the airport and caught a taxi back to it - it's not far, but very hilly, so not great for lugging bags.
My stay at Alfama Lisbon
This hotel Is a very clean and well located hotel near to most important monuments, historical places and supermarkets. This hotel is well equipped and very well maintained. It had very resourceful tools in the kitchen for your meals and very convenient for getting bus stops and transportation. Getting into the hotel is very simple and fast also. Very nice stay here! Would recommend!
Perfect for our trip
Bare but comfortable, clean, modern, and very well located. The building is pretty funky we loved it and it was also great to have a kitchen (although the coffee machine is less than ideal). We were at first taken aback by having to enter with a code (which did not work at first), but the intercom system worked well and all our needs were satisfied. One thing, also, we left befind a leather jacket and wrote them an email. They were incredible attentive and sent it back to us as we agreed.
