I definitely wasn't kidding when I said we had some additional organizing to do in our cocina de Jones.
Take this glass cabinet for example!
Not only is there some mis-matched glassware, but again, we were bursting at the seems and having to stack mugs upon one another....
I decided the biggest problem was all of our vino glasses.  And then I decided we needed some of these: Simple under cabinet wine glass holders.
But I didn't want to put them under our cabinets, since our kitchen already feels quite small and I feared it would look slightly cluttered.
Remember when we installed our two floating shelves in our kitchen?
Bingo, perfect spot for some wine glass storage.  Since I was already stashing s ... [leer más]

After darkness had fallen, and when the stores and equipment had all been safely unloaded and stood in waiting on the quay, Farder Coram and Lyra walked along the waterfront and looked for Einarsson's Bar. They found it easily enough: a crude concrete shed with a red neon sign flashing irregularly over the door and the sound of loud voices through the condensation-frosted windows.
A pitted alley beside it led to a sheet-metal gate into a rear yard, where a lean-to shed stood crazily over a floor of frozen mud. Dim light through the rear window of the bar showed a vast pale form crouching upright and gnawing at a haunch of meat which it held in both hands.

The story opens in the small village of Little Hangleton at "The Riddle House." Many villagers still call it that, even though many years have passed since the Riddle family actually lived there. Atop a hill overlooking the village, the former manor was the largest building in the area.
The house has a creepy reputation. Half a century ago, the Riddle family, including the son, then about thirty years old, and his parents, were found dead in the living room. Frank Bryce, the Riddles' gardener, was arrested on suspicion of homicide but was released when it was determined the victims were not murdered; they simply died. But the villagers remain suspicious that Frank was responsible. ... [leer más]

Still upset, Hermione timidly brings Harry tea and shows him Rita Skeeter's book, The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore that she took from Bathilda Bagshot's house. A note sticking out reads: Dear Batty, Thanks for your help. Here's a copy of the book, hope you like it. You said everything, even if you don't remember it. Rita
Harry assures Hermione that he is not angry about his wand, it was only an accident, and he is grateful to her for saving his life. As he rifles through the book, Harry feels perverse pleasure-now he will know Dumbledore's secrets. Harry sees photos of a young Dumbledore and the handsome companion he recognizes as the thief in Gregorovitch's memory. ... [leer más]

The next morning, Harry is still mourning his lost wand. Without it he feels weak, vulnerable, and stripped naked, as if his magical power died with it. He tucks the broken halves, barely held together by the damaged Phoenix feather, into the Mokeskin pouch around his neck. The Snitch is also inside, and Harry is momentarily tempted to toss it, believing it is as useless as everything else Dumbledore left behind. His fury at Dumbledore is unleashed. In desperation they had gone to Godric's Hollow, believing it held answers and would lead to some secret path laid out by Dumbledore. ... [leer más]

Archaeological research at Atapuerca indicates the Iberian Peninsula was populated by hominids 1.2 million years ago.[10] Modern humans first arrived in Iberia,from the north on foot,about 32,000 years ago. The best known artifacts of these prehistoric human settlements are the famouspaintings in the Altamira cave of Cantabria in northern Iberia, which were created about 15,000 BCE by cro-magnons.

The Napoleonic invasions of Spain led to chaos, triggering independence movements that tore apart most of the empiere and left the country politically unstable. Prior to the Second World War, Spain suffered a devastating civil war and came under the rule of an authoritarian government, whose rule oversaw a period of stagnation but that finished with a powerful economic surge. Eventually democracy was peacefully restored in the form of a parliamentary constitutional monarchy. In 1986, Spain joined the European Union, experiencing a ... ... [leer más]

The true origins of the name "España" and its cognates "Spain" and "Spanish" are disputed. The ancient Roman name for Iberia, "Hispania", may derive from poetic use of the term "Hesperia" to refer to Sain, reflecting the Greek perception of Italy as a "western land" or "land of the setting sun" (Hesperia, in Greek) and Spain, being still further west, as "Hesperia ultima". ...
