10 Reasons to Check out Hostel Tresor in Ljubljana
Backpacker on a budget? You're certainly not going to have a hard time getting by in Ljubljana. The food is incredible and the budget accommodations are endless.
We decided to spend our time in Ljubljana hanging out at the Hostel Tresor, perfectly located in the centre of the town (near the 3 bridges and 50 metres from the Prešeren Square).
While I enjoy the social aspect of hostels and the numerous awesome people you get to meet when hanging out in a hostel lobby, it was great having the option to stay in one of Hostel Tresor's twin private rooms. If you're really on a budget, they have space for more than 130 people in 4 to 12 bedroom dorms as well.
But to make it easy…
Here's 10 awesome reasons why we thoroughly enjoyed our time spent at Hostel Tresor:
Weekly Events: The hostel hosts weekly events every day of the week including short movie nights, concerts and delicious food samplings. Our favourite events just so happened to be their Pancake Wednesday's (with Nutella) and their Thursday night Jazz Jam Sessions!
24 Hour Reception: It was awesome being able to come in and out whenever we pleased without worrying about being locked out, I forgot my room number a couple of times so having 24 hour reception definitely helped
Baggage Storage (in a vault): The hostel location itself was actually previously the home of bankers and was only built in the 20th century. This means that the bank vault is actually still there and we absolutely took advantage of this on our last day in Ljubljana to explore the city a little bit more before heading onward to Kamnik and Velika Planina
Laundry Services: After an intense day of caving, there wasn't an ounce of skin or clothing that wasn't covered in mud. Conveniently the hostel offers self-service laundry facilities!
Delicious Fresh Croissants: A fresh coffee and warm homemade croissant, what else would make your morning in Ljubljana any better?
Free Wifi: Need I explain why having FREE wifi in an accommodation is SO important? Many hostels only offer wifi in the lobby areas, but I managed to spend my late evenings in bed catching up on social media
Cheap Cocktails and Craft Beer: I don't think we went one night without cocktails and craft beer at Tresor, the prices were right and the crowd was great
Friendly Staff: By the end of our trip to Ljubljana we knew almost every staff member by name, it was truly an honour to meet such wonderful people
Elevator Access: I did not come equipped with a backpack on this trip, so having access to the elevator was absolutely heavenly!
Photo Printers: I've never seen this done in a hostel before, but they have two photo printers - one from your Instagram account creating mock Polaroids, and one to print your photos from a USB stick

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Ja Morant was announced as the winner of the N.B.A.'s Rookie of the Year Award on Thursday night after nearly leading the Memphis Grizzlies to an unexpected postseason berth while dazzling crowds with his playmaking abilities and highlight-reel dunks.
Morant, a 6-foot-3 point guard and the No. 2 pick in last year's draft, received 99 of a possible 100 first-place votes. The Miami Heat's Kendrick Nunn, who went undrafted in 2018 and spent last season in the G League, placed second in the voting. The New Orleans Pelicans' Zion Williamson, a dynamic forward who was injured for much of the season, placed third and received the only other first-place vote.
Morant, 21, who grew up in Dalzell, S.C., was a lightly recruited high school player before he emerged as a star in two seasons at Murray State, a mid-major school in Kentucky. It did not take him long to acclimate to the speed of the N.B.A. In his first season with the Grizzlies, he averaged 17.8 points and 7.3 assists a game while shooting 47.7 percent from the field.
When the season was suspended in March because of the coronavirus pandemic, the Grizzlies were eighth in the Western Conference and positioned for a playoff run. But they were undone by injuries once the season resumed at Walt Disney World, and lost to the Portland Trail Blazers in the first-ever play-in game for the final spot.
Still, the Grizzlies' future appears bright. Morant is a player around whom the franchise hopes to build in the wake of the "grit and grind" era that featured players like Mike Conley, now with the Utah Jazz, and Marc Gasol, who won a championship last season with the Toronto Raptors. The Grizzlies have a talented young core that also includes Jaren Jackson Jr., a second-year center who averaged 17.4 points and 4.6 rebounds a game. Brandon Clarke, another first-year player for the Grizzlies, finished fourth in the rookie of the year voting.
"For him, it's just been rapid growth," Grizzlies Coach Taylor Jenkins said of Morant in an interview earlier this season. "The great thing about him is he's mature beyond his years, he's got a high basketball I.Q., he loves the game, he's always watching and studying and talking about it with his teammates, and he embraces coaching."
Williamson, the first overall pick in last year's draft, missed the first half of the season with a knee injury but was a thrilling presence when he did play. In 24 games, he averaged 22.5 points and 6.3 rebounds while shooting 58.3 percent from the field.

Cassadee Pope on Reshaping Career for 'Stages,' Opens Up About 'The Voice' – "There were a few things there that weren't working very well," Pope told Newsweek of leaving her label. "It's hard coming off of a singing competition show. You're kind of at the mercy of the team that you are with and thankfully, it went really well, at first. And then, I just started to grow and evolve." "I uprooted everything and moved to Nashville and, you know—that was an adjustment to kind of get in with the community. Thankfully, they've welcomed me. There was just a lot of self-discovery moments and 'Oh, actually, you wanna go this route, musically,'" she said. – Read more at Newsweek

You better quote what EN announced about this matter. Before writing my previous post I could not find any where EN said about its plan about EN on Linux. Mr Google said and is still saying that this thread is the most relevant discussion about EN for Linux. I have searched again and found these links: http://blog.evernote.com/blog/2012/05/03/evernote-raises-70-million-financing/ (The last paragrap is quite interesting) https://evernote.com/contact/support/kb/#!/article/23196486 (Updated 2014-2-6, which falls into reponses type 1 and 3 listed in my first post) You can say it is my problem of not being able to find the right information. Nonetheless, it is up to EN to decide if they want to wait for a good bussiness oportunity, even create an oportunity, or never know what they miss. I have spended enought time giving my feedback, and I agree with Cosmoslx post: "I just want to say, no linux client, no pay! This is the only right we can use." If you've noticed, we're just reporting what Evernote have said publicly about their position on a Linux client. That's really all we know, and it appears not to have changed in some time. You can draw your own conclusions. Beyond that, we're allowed to have opinions, just like you. Yep. @biocyberman - I'm simply relaying what EN has said publicly. I find it odd that you object to that. (Edited to fixed the second broken link)
@BurgersNFries You do not work for Evernote, then no one should trust what you say about Evernote's decisions and plans. You may have heard of them, but I for one consider they are not official. And so unless you want to deliberately annoy people (i.e. who are asking for Linux client version of Evernote), you should STOP telling about Evernote's plans and business decisions. There are tons of software that only have Windows, Macintosh version or even Linux versions, but why do I not disappoint about them ? Because I get one or more of following reasons: We don't see large market for platform XYZ (hopefully they say this after doing some sort of market research) We haven't received many requests to support for platform XZY (hopefully they have some way to collect customers/users feedback) We don't have enough resources/expertise at the moment to work for platform XYZ (hopefully they seriously have considered the matter and see what the requirements are) Development for platform XYZ needs to wait for other components (i.e. dependency libraries) to reach stable stage. There are very strong competitors waiting for us at platform XYZ and we don't think it is wise/profitable to invest into that platform (this sounds like both coward and safe at the same time). There are high risks of legal, copyrights problems and resource/property loss that we don't see it is suitable for us to work for platform XYZ. (This would never be told) We are earning well with current directions, jumping to another less experienced territory would stretch our resources as well as income. However, why do I feel annoyed and disappointed about Evernote? It is because: It is more about what you wrote about Evernote's decisions in this thread that ignited my frustration. You find the de ja vu yourself more than others because your responses are rigid, non-informative and repetitive about "Evernote's fixed business plans and decisions". Evernote is not like specialized-purpose software, it is playing more and more integral part in daily life of many people. I use it to take notes and more importantly to sync across multiple devices. If Evernote started out as an none-crossplatform solution, I would not complain but I would not use it as I do today. In turn, Evernote would not be that popular. The problem is that I also use Linux along with Windows and Mac OS. I will be very happy if I can be free of Windows, but that is not practical. There are still many useful Windows applications that I still use, asking these Windows software to be ported to Linux is not feasible. However I still see Evernote is another story on its own. I respect Evernote's plans and decisions. These plans and decisions may be right or wrong. In my opinion, ignoring a significant platform like Linux is not a right decision. Do not equalize Linux as Palm TX to justify multiplatform vs all-platform argument.

Meet The Staff
Six Beers Deep is an XBOX clan made for adults, by adults. Our player base is primarily NA & EU and is composed of competent gamers ranging from causal to hardcore in both PvE and PvP. We have an active discord and personalized clan ranks tied to accomplishing difficult tasks with other clan members (just in case you already didn't have enough to grind for). We are the best clan on Xbox and close to the largest.
JackedUp Jonesy
Hey, I'm Jonesy! Boring stuff out of the way first; I'm an electrical engineer with a focus in power systems and a proud graduate of the University of Tennessee. I have a beautiful wife who I've been with for over 13 years and have 3 awesome pets (1 dog, 2 cats). Some of my other passions are Tennis (I received a scholarship to Auburn University to play Tennis my Freshman year of college) , cars, lifting weights (hence the "JackedUp"), amongst others.
Gaming has always been a huge part of my life. It's provided me with a means of escaping the real world and a venue for me to pursue a lifelong hobby. When I first laid my hands on Destiny, I knew this franchise was something special. As I set out to find more people to play Destiny with, I strive to make a community that I would personally love to be a part of. 1000+ members later, I believe I've done a pretty decent job. You can always find me on discord or Twitch if you have any question about our amazing community! Cheers!
Greetings fellow beers. It's lipidquadcab, one of your friendly neighborhood bartenders! Games have always been a big part of my life, from the beginning when I was playing Commodore 64 and Odyssey2 in my parents' game room up until today, where I dedicate the majority of my time to the game that has brought all of us here: Destiny. In between, I was an avid fan of anything Mario, spent my weekends playing Goldeneye 007 (where I reached the peak of my PvP career when I won a 1v3 using a racing wheel), and wasted the best years of my college career playing Halo 2 multiplayer until the sun came up.
I have been a member of the Six Beers Deep community since November 2018 and became a Bartender in June 2019. When I am not handing out beers in #verification (where everyone ) I can usually be found chasing triumph points, banging my head against the curse of the Dreaming City in the Shattered Throne, or floating in orbit, trying to conquer the true endgames of Destiny: fashion and vault space.
Outside of gaming, I am a test technician for an avionics company, where I spend most of my time pretending to work while I listen to podcasts and soundtracks. I live in a small town in eastern Iowa with my two dogs and cat. I love almost all forms of cooking, and am especially fond of grilling and smoking. In addition to the Six Beers Deep discord, I can be found on twitter @lipidquadcab and on Twitch at
Atlas The Deity
Hey, I am Atlas the Deity(Atlas) and I am a Sophomore at the University of Idaho. I am kind of a geek and have always loved video games. I am mainly a PVE player in the world of Destiny but I dabble in the PVP when I am bored or have to. I really enjoy going for low man challenges, completing seals, and just messing around with friends. If you ever want to check me out, I will soon be streaming at
Hello Six Beers Deep! I'm Marcolepsy120, but people around here call me Marco. Well, they're wrong, the name's Marc. I've been gaming since the NES had the running pad for that Olympic track and field game. So yeah I'm kind of old, but don't mistake me for some past his prime Dad gamer. Though I am a proud father to a 1 year old, I still do what it takes to hold my own in the shooters I enjoy. Like Halo, Gears, but most of all Destiny where I spend most of my time in the crucible.
I've been in Six Beers Deep since December of 2018 and a Bartender since June of 2019. My main contributions are organizing our weekly PVP scrims, assisting members with PVP through our alcoholics anonymous service, and being a contributor to PVP improvement with gameplay reviews and general strategy discussion. Secondary contributions include a high frequency of below average jokes and optimism bordering on delusion.
I can be found easily in discord, or check out my mostly average gameplay on twitch:
What's up guardians. Spaz here. Once you come to know me better, you'll know there's two things I love, Destiny and Hot Cheese. I've been gaming since I was 5. First game I ever really got into was Zelda Ocarina of Time, even though I played several other games. Eventualy I got hooked on to Halo and Xbox became my go to. I graduated from NCSU in 2016 with a degree in mechanical engineering, and I started my own business.
When Destiny came around I became hooked, and now Six Beers Deep is family. In June of 2019 my brother and I even traveled 600 miles and picked up Kawsmic just to go to Disney and meet up with several other members to ride roller coasters, bowling, and drinks. We've built SBD to be a home for guardians.
When it comes to Destiny, you'll definitely find me in the PvE side of things. I love raiding and doing the raid challenges and helping other conquer the darkness. I'm almost always down to help anyone complete any quest or challenge, so if you see me online got me up in discord. I might need to get some hot cheese first though.
Blackbuc, Buc, BB…whichever you choose to call me, the real name is Chris. I'm a regular nerd who also deeply loves sports and being outdoors. When I am indoors, you'll find me around the Destiny galaxy running raids, trying not to lose motes, and on the occasion popping heads off in the crucible. I've been in SBD for about a year now and the clan quickly became like a family to me and I hope it becomes like one for you as well. Eyes up Guardian, there's beer to be drank!
My name is missile, I'm 33 and enjoy long walks over hive corpses. Oh wait this is a bartender profile not a dating profile. Good thing too, my wife would kill me. I joined SBD in November 2018 and became a bartender October 2019 due to my sparkling personality. I've been gaming since before I could walk. I was beating up Bowser by the time I was 2 and now I beat back the darkness every night. I am a Titan, 100%. You'll only see me on anything else just to collect some raid loot. If you are looking for me you can probably find me in the crucible trying to make Lord Shaxx proud or hell even Marco, I'm not picky.
Mr Boofers
Hey everyone. My name is Mr Boofers, but most call me Boof. I'm a husband, a father, and a gamer; in that order. Family means the world to me and they take priority in my life. When I'm not changing diapers and playing dress up with my girls, you'll find me slaying gods and saving the universe with the best community in Destiny: Six Beers Deep.
I love helping people. Both in game and in life. I'm an Occupational Therapy Assistant and work with disabled children from birth to 18 years old. My calling in life is to help others and to promote quality of life for any individual. I do my best to carry that over into the SBD community. If you need someone to game with, or just someone to listen, you know where to find me.
"As human beings, our job in life is to help people realize how rare and valuable each one of us really is, that each of us has something that no one else has- or ever will have- something inside that is unique to all time. It's our job to encourage each other to discover that uniqueness and to provide ways of developing its expression." -Mr. Rogers

I have previously written about certain etiquette and good practices that should be followed during funeral ceremonies and condolence meetings, but, it seems, I have been blowing the proverbial trumpet towards the wall.
We all go to such meetings, whether these are at people's homes, public halls or community centres. There are several scores of people at such gatherings to mourn with the family members but I have often seen there are those visitors who use the occasion to catch up on gossip, talk about the weather and even conclude commercial deals, many a time to the accompaniment of boisterous backslapping and loud laughter. Imagine the feeling of the near and dear ones of the person who has passed on since all this takes place within their sight and earshot.
Is this appropriate? How can, if I am from the family of the deceased, God forbid, accept this? There are several incorrect practices that we follow in our societies, but the question arises is why do we continue with them? Why not change this ourselves because it will be change for the better and we shall rid ourselves of such a malice. There is no doubt that people in Bahrain are keen to carry out this moral and religious duty and it is good habit we hope will be passed on to future generations.
I have a suggestion that will, perhaps, change this behaviour. Organisers of gatherings should ensure religious sermons from renowned scholars or recitations from the Holy Quran are played loud and clear so that everyone present can hear them at all times. This will ensure people stay focused since I know they will not say or do anything else when they hear the Holy Quran.
It assures me that this will put an end to irresponsible or undesirable behaviour.
Man by nature resists change in behaviour even if it is wrong, saying it is a custom or a tradition. The real issue is that we do not have the courage to change.
But, as is said, a "journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step".

Benjamin Franklin said "A penny saved is a penny earned." The pennies you save can grow as they earn interest over time, but there are circumstances where making withdrawals from your savings can cost you money. Before you deposit hard-earned cash into an account, it's important to understand any restrictions on withdrawing that cash.

A certificate of deposit is an investment you make with a bank or other financial institution. You deposit a specific amount of money in the bank and agree to leave it there for a predetermined length of time. You earn a higher interest rate than you would have if you'd put the same amount of money in a savings account that lets you take out money at any time without a penalty. When time runs out, you can withdraw the amount you invested plus the interest your money earned.
Early Withdrawal Penalties for CDs
You incur a penalty for making early withdrawals from a certificate of deposit because withdrawing money before the term of the CD runs out violates your CD agreement with the bank. The details depend on your CD agreement, but generally speaking, the bank assesses a penalty of 60 days or more worth of interest on the CD. If the amount of the penalty is more than the amount of interest accrued on your original investment, the bank deducts the difference from your CD.
Individual Retirement Accounts
Funds you hold in a traditional individual retirement account are generally subject to penalties for withdrawals you make before you reach age 59 1/2. Your deposits in an IRA, up to a limit, are not included in your taxable income in the year you earn them. Instead, income taxes are deferred on your IRA contributions and accrued earnings on those contributions. Taxes are assessed when you withdraw money from your IRA. If you deposit money in a Roth IRA, your contributions are taxable in the year you earn them, but taxes are not assessed on the earnings your contributions accumulate.
Early Withdrawal Penalties for IRAs
Penalties apply to withdrawals you make from a traditional individual retirement account before you reach age 59 1/2. You'll have to pay any federal and state income tax on your withdrawals, along with a 10 percent early withdrawal penalty. With a Roth IRA, you'll pay taxes and penalties on the earnings you withdraw but not on your contributions -- you already paid income tax on contributions. In both instances, the taxes and 10 percent penalty are due when you file your income tax return for the year you made the early withdrawal.

You are free to discuss this article here: forum for traders and investors
According to British Prime Minister Theresa May, the Balkan states are in jeopardy. This threat is coming from Russia. That's why she thinks that European leaders should establish tighter cooperation with those Balkan states that are not EU members to avoid letting Russia spread their influence over those states.
Several Western online sources report that Angela Merkel is willing to tell Donald Trump all the truth about what's really going on in Ukraine. The thing is that German observers assume that Donald Trump knows relatively little about the situation in Ukraine in general and the East of Ukraine in particular. That's why they assume that their Chancellor seems to think that it's now here responsibility as a European leader to shed some light on the situation and help the U.S. President understand the real state of affairs in the region, especially in the Crimea and Donbass.
The international expert community is now busy discussing United States Ambassador to Russia Jon Huntsman Jr. For years, he has been known as the adversary of Russia's policies towards Georgia and Ukraine. Politico was the first media source to write about the assignment of Jon Huntsman. Indeed, he seems to have accepted Donald Trump's offer to represent the USA in Russia.
This is going to be a decisive year for the entire European union and the Eurozone. Starting from the next month and through September 2017, we are going to see a series of elections in France, Germany and the Netherlands. International experts say that those elections will decide the future of the common European currency as we know it. By the way, Italy may also hold a similar election in late 2017.
So far, Ukrainian Minister of External Affairs Pavel Klimkin has been spending most of the time abroad, including Washington, New York, Munich and other Western cities. Over the last couple of weeks, he managed to participate in a number of meetings.
President Trump is planning to seriously expand the budget spending on defense while upgrading the U.S. Army and Navy in order to stay the world's biggest military force. Donald Trump is sure than after the USA has regained its strength, nobody will want to mess with America. By the way, Donald trump believes in peace through force.

Daniel Gilstrap DDS
After completing his undergraduate studies at Drury University, Dr. Daniel Gilstrap earned his DDS degree from the UMKC School of Dentistry, graduating Summa Cum Laude in the top 5% of his class. His excellence as a student of dentistry landed him on the Dean's List all four years while he was in dental school.
Dr. Gilstrap's commitment to lifelong learning continues. He is a certified provider for both Invisalign and Inman Aligner. He is also a member of several professional associations:
- The American Dental Association
- The Kansas Dental Association
- The Academy of General Dentistry
He also keeps up with developments in dentistry through the DentalTown Online Dental Community.
Dr. Gilstrap was born and raised in Kansas City, and he grew up immersed in sports and his church community. He is passionate about his call to service and has a deep personal belief in giving back. In 2010, Dr. Gilstrap made a mission trip to Africa, where he provided dentistry to those in need. Starting in 2012, he established a dental program through a charity clinic in Raytown, MO to meet the dental needs of the needy. On Fridays, Dr Gilstrap works to meet the needs of yet another under-served population by delivering mobile dental care to patients in Assisted Living and Memory Care facilities.
As a dentist, Dr. Gilstrap loves the process of restoration – removing the bad and replacing it with the good. He treats every case, even the smallest filling, as a little work of art. He appreciates the fact that his work allows people to smile again with confidence, and he's excited every time a patient who was once fearful or anxious has a positive experience and changes their expectations about what dentistry can be.
"Dentistry is, by its nature, very up close and personal, and I enjoy the aspect of really getting to know my patients."
Dr. Gilstrap is the oldest of four. He and his wife Sarah have three young sons and a dog named Rooney. Dr. Gilstrap enjoys gourmet cooking, snow skiing, rooting for Kansas City sports teams, and traveling to see friends and family.

K.S. Radhakrishnan | Sculptor of the mind2 min read . Updated: 04 Apr 2013, 10:11 PM IST
K.S. Radhakrishnan showcases his vast oeuvre in his latest exhibition
Did you know that the famous dancing girl of the ancient Indian civilization Mohenjo-Daro is now a graduate from Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan? At least in the world of Delhi-based national award-winning sculptor K.S. Radhakrishnan.
In the sculptor's vision, she holds a tablet in her left hand, which is stacked with bangles. In her right hand, she carries a saptaparni leaf that is given to students who graduate from Visva-Bharati as part of a ritual.
The "graduate" Mohenjo-Daro dancing girl is a part of Radhakrishnan's ongoing exhibition, Sculptures, at Art Pilgrim, Gurgaon. The exhibition features the artist's oeuvre, spanning over 30 years. "This exhibition represents the various stages and series of my works," says Radhakrishnan, 57, who was born in Kottayam, Kerala, and did his bachelor's and master's degrees in sculpture from Visva-Bharati University, studying under legends like Ramkinkar Baij.
On display are selected works from his previous series like Freehold, where the dancing sculptures appear to defy gravity and glide through the air.
The exhibition also includes firefly-like sculptures, which descend or ascend collectively, creating an abstraction to finally form a larger-than-life avatar. Works like Monalisa in a Frame show a taut female figure gesticulating through a golden frame. The bronze figures are elfin, mischievous, airy, acrobatic, and archaic, delicately balancing on one hand or leg.
Unlike many of his contemporaries, Radhakrishnan thinks bronze is perfect for his sculpting although, over the years, he has experimented with plaster of Paris, molten bronze and beeswax. He says: "For me bronze works best because it is strong, and brings out the character of my sculptures. Although it takes time, the process also becomes a part of my art form."
However dynamic and diverse the sculptures are, there is a common streak that runs through them—their smile. "You see they are all happy to be able to elevate to a different space which they desire and dream about. And in the process or journey, they acquire this lightness and contentment within. So no matter how precariously they are positioned; they are always smiling, always moving, always evolving," says the artist, who gazes at his creations with the benevolent eye of a father, often patting or stroking them.
It all started in 1970, when Radhakrishnan met an 18-year-old Santhal boy, Musui, asking for alms in Santiniketan, where the sculptor was studying. "What struck me was this unusual peace and smile on his face. So I offered him some money and asked him to sit for me so I could make his portrait. Sometime later, he came with his head shaven. And even when I came to Delhi in 1980, that image stayed on with me and became a permanent fixture in my work and my life. It was as though me and Musui are one," he says. His series Musui And Maiya went on to become his most famous work.
Over the years, Radhakrishnan's sculptures have also evolved in dynamics and size. "When I started in the 1980s, sculpting was not seen as a mainstream art form . I then travelled to places like Europe to acquire that credibility and be recognized in my country", he says.
Today, Radhakrishnan, who says he would have been a film-maker, if he hadn't become a sculptor, is hopeful about the future of sculpting in the country. "The Indian art market and business is improving for sculpting and that is encouraging newer sculptors to come in," he says.
Sculptures is on till 9 April, 11am-7pm, at Art Pilgrim, Sushant Lok, 689 A, Gurgaon.

2013-10-31 18:30:40
A former BBC radio presenter has been jailed for 22 years for sex attacks on boys.
Michael Souter, 60, of Loddon, Norfolk, was convicted earlier this month of 19 sexual assaults on seven boys aged between 11 and 16.
Norwich Crown Court heard the offences took place between 1979 and 1999.
Souter, who worked for BBC Radio Norfolk in the 1980s, was a Venture Scouts leader, a mentor to young people and had been allowed to adopt a child.
The court heard Souter, who also worked for Radio Clyde, had used his local celebrity status to abuse his victims.
'Childhoods destroyed'
The jury also found him guilty of seven counts of making and possessing indecent images of under-18s.
After the six-week trial, detectives revealed they were investigating further allegations of abuse against Souter.
Judge Mark Lucraft QC described Souter's attempts to claim the allegations were fabricated as "pathetic".
Courtroom One at Norwich Crown Court was packed for
the latest chapter in the downfall of Michael Souter.
Among those in the public gallery were eight jurors, who
had returned to see the man they had convicted learn
his fate.
Police involved in the case kept their eyes fixed on
Souter throughout, some of them nodding as the judge
praised the bravery of the victims for coming forward.
When the sentence was handed down, there were gasps
from the public gallery.
Souter, wearing a navy blazer, remained emotionless
throughout and simply bowed his head as he was led
from the glass-screened dock.
"The childhood of many of your victims was destroyed and their lives blighted," he said.
"You exploited your position to groom each of them. You took hundreds of photographs of boys in shorts and were the only person in this court who could not see these pictures for what they were."
'Cynical defence'
The judge said Souter displayed an "ongoing sexual obsession with boys" and posed a risk of further offending on his release from prison.
Souter was banned indefinitely from working with children and ordered to pay legal costs of nearly £14,700.
Andrew Shaw, for the prosecution, said Souter had mounted a "cynical defence" in the face of overwhelming evidence.
He had denied the offences saying they were concocted, and that police had invented evidence as part of a conspiracy to smear his name.
Souter's barrister, Andrew Hill, said that he could offer little in mitigation because his client had continued to protest his innocence.
"His position prior to these matters - the charitable works and many other local good works - will all be forgotten when it comes to sentencing," he said.

Glenn Greenwald, who has blogged extensively about warrantless domestic spying, appeared this morning on C-SPAN opposite University of Virginia professor Robert Turner. Watch the video, or read an excerpt of Greenwald below:
The Founding Fathers would be shocked to learn that they created a system of government where we have a President who can — without what Bush defenders call "interference" from the Congress, which this is the people of the United States and their representatives, or the courts — can make decisions about how Americans are detained, how Americans are eavesdropped on, how Americans are interrogated, not just abroad, but in the United States. The power the professor is describing is the power of a king.

Examination of Visuals about the Particulate Nature of Matter in Turkish Middle School Science Textbooks
Kapici, Hasan Özgür; Savasci-Açikalin, Funda – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2015
Textbooks are one of the primary teaching tools frequently used in schools and most teachers use them in their classrooms (Sanchez and Valcarcel, 1999). Since there are a lot of abstract concepts in science education, images in science textbooks play a vital role in the learning process (Kenan et al., 2011). Concretization of abstract concepts may…

Well done it took you to your dead line but someone's got a good buy
Don't loose my drive space until nearly the end of september now as production shortage at Toyota means we've got a few weeks more to wait. Demand outstripping supply or something.
Atleast theres now a flat space if i need to work on my caravelle. Used to be irritating having to move the camper every time.
End of an era for you and the beginning of a new one for the new owners.
That seems a very reasonable price when you look at some of the jokers on ebay.
If it was for sale in Essex it would probably have gone for about £2k more. Theres not many buyers up here in the north west.
New owner has an Austin A30. Sounds like its gonna get the love it deserves though.
Just transfered my insurance across to the beetle.
It was quite a funny conversation.
JK-"When did you purchase the vehicle."
JK-"Oh, i don't suppose you can remember the date?"
Me-"Erm....September i think "
JK-"That'll do."
Separate names with a comma.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of overweight in only children to those with siblings and to explore potential behavioral mediating factors. This study relies upon cross-sectional data collected at survey centers in eight European countries participating in Identification and prevention of Dietary- and lifestyle-induced health EFfects In Children and infantS (IDEFICS). The present analysis is based on measured anthropometry and parent or guardian-reported socio-demographic characteristics. Subjects include 12 720 children aged 2-9 years for whom number of siblings was known. Singletons were more likely (odds ratio 1.52, 95% confidence interval (CI):1.34-1.72) to be overweight than their peers with siblings when controlling for factors related to childhood overweight, including survey country, parental education, parental weight, maternal age, child's age, birth weight and gender. The three southernmost countries have over threefold risk of overweight, dominated by Italy, compared with the north-central countries, which is not explained by the prevalence of singleton children. The excess risk of overweight among children without siblings was robustly observed even when considering behavioral mediating factors (playtime, screen time per day, dietary propensities for sugar or fat, parental attitudes towards food rewards and television in the child's bedroom). Among singletons aged 6-9 years, the excess risk of overweight was 1.70 (95% CI: 1.44-2.01) compared with 1.32 (95% CI: 1.10-1.60) in younger singletons. © 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited.

Pretty darn cute
Love Island star Curtis Pritchard has an utterly adorable name for his villa beau Maura Higgins, but it was never aired on the show.
Opening up about her relationship with the pro ballroom dancer, fiery Irish stunner Maura revealed that his little nickname for her is 'Button Nose'.
The pair finished found romance on the fifth series of the ITV dating show but got off to a controversial start.
Curtis was initially in a 'half relationship' with blonde flight attendant, Amy Hart, before leaving her heartbroken when he had his head turned during the Casa Amor challenge.
With Amy and Curtis' romance in tatters, Maura took the opportunity to swoop in and confess her feelings for him.
Now, the couple seem to be totally loved up having landed fourth place in the grand finale.
Gushing over her new man, Maura told Grazia: 'He gets up in the morning and irons my dresses for me. He's just the cutest guy in the world.
'His nickname for me on the show was Button Nose, but they never showed that.'
The gorgeous grid girl also has plans to get closer to Curtis, adding: 'I definitely want to move.'

She then went on to issue a stark warning to her bae, making it clear Curtis won't be getting off lightly if he ever strays.
Maura explained: 'Obviously, we're going to be busy now, but I feel like if we both like each other enough we will make time for each other.
'I'm not a girl to be on edge all the time thinking, "I wonder what he's doing?"
'I trust someone until they do me wrong, and if they do me wrong, that's it. There are no second chances with me. You're gone.'

Budget 2019-2020 makes a lot more sense when interpreted in the light of Scott Morrison's first speech. Like most first speeches, it's about how his personal values manifest in his political actions. And what those values expose about the current prime minister's understanding of Australian history is quite telling.
What a poor showing. This collection of the desperate clinging to a dream so old it is just a tattered mumble for old men in the fading light. All myth and spittle.
A lady with tears in her eyes asked if I was Muslim. I told her that I am. She asked it if would it be okay if she came in and said a prayer. 'Of course,' I replied. She knelt, quietly sobbing, and said a few words. I also knelt and recited a few verses from the Quran. We were complete strangers sharing a unique and emotional moment.
A conservative within a conservative church he was a divisive figure, not just because of his orthodox views but because of the unbending and assertive style with which he promulgated them. Something died in Australian Catholicism with this verdict and Australian Catholics will have to live with that whatever the future turns out to be.
You say you are not in a war zone, but look at all these deaths mounting up around you, this friend and that one suddenly gone, the news coming unexpectedly and from unexpected sources, and with each passing, other deaths: the death of friendships, of anticipation, of familiar voices ...
There is still a segment of the internet obsessed with enforcing 'correct' grammar: the self-styled Grammar Police. In communicating with others, grammar provides clarity, and Australian standard grammar is one way of accomplishing that. But knowing the standardised rules is a skill not everyone has the same access to.
'We can do this better by breaking down the silos and binding together our concern for nature, justice for the poor, commitment to society, and interior peace.' Opening Keynote Address by Fr Frank Brennan SJ at the Catholic Social Services Australia National Conference, Port Macquarie 19 February 2019.
Having failed to prevent tinkering to the border protection regime, the Morrison government returned to the well Australian politicians have drawn upon when faced with electoral crisis. Mathias Cormann was no less crude in adopting a mode that speaks wonders to the desperation of a government awaiting its electoral deliverance.
Any suggestion that Israel is a racist and racial state is often met with outrage and accusations of antisemitism. Yet even supporters of Israel were shocked by the recent legislation of the Nation-State law. The law isn't news, however. Just like the apartheid law in South Africa, it doesn't signify the onset of apartheid; it enshrines it.
Mary Oliver, who died recently, came to realise it's not just kneeling and kissing the ground that needs to be encouraged, but that the natural world itself, which fed and sustained her creatively and emotionally for a lifetime, is now endangered. We are in danger of wrecking creation.
I realised my own definition of what was challenging was based on a lifetime of hate-reading books I thought I should like, while the romance books that I was reading were often dealing with heavy topics like colonisation, racism, trauma and mental illness from perspectives different to my own.
This Invasion Day, instead of calling on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to conform to simplistic solutions such as changing the date of a public holiday geared around reinforcing jingoism and nationalism, walk alongside us and commit to doing better.
