We had such a lovely time at Hynal and Andy's studio! It had everything we could have possibly needed and they were fantastic hosts. They were very helpful with local information and tips, and were kind enough to help us with a lift when we were unable to get a taxi. The location was perfect and beautiful, with a lovely little beach at the end of the road. Can't thank them enough for their generous hospitality and warm welcome, would love to stay there again, highly recommended!Sally2016-10-15T00:00:00Z
The studio is a quiet and beautiful location. Hynal and Andy were very welcoming upon our arrival. They provided everything we needed, including some milk and shortbread. It was a great place to recharge each evening in front of the fire. We loved our stay!Michelle2017-04-29T00:00:00Z
We had a fantastic three night stay and Hynal and Andy were great hosts giving a warm welcome. The studio has everything you need and more including a lovely garden and summer house, DVDs to watch, a lovely log burner for cosy nights in and decent wifi. We made use of the well equipped kitchen eating in every night after long walks in the hills, the studio was so lovely we didnt feel the need to go out for dinner. Easy driving distance to Ben Nevis, Fort William, Glen Finnan, Cable cars. If you have time drive to the Silver Sands of Morar, just beautiful. We hope to return. Thanks again.Hannah2017-04-25T00:00:00Z
We arrived rather late and Andy was kind enough to welcome us in that late hour. The flat is amazing: new, clean with a nicely set up kitchen, tastefully decorated; and so are the view all around (but hey, it is in the Highlands after all). The fire place is a fantastic touch to add loads of cosiness to a cool evening. Would absolutely visit again!Vadim2016-10-03T00:00:00Z
Outstanding!!!! Everything was absolutely perfect! Immaculately clean, stunning views and surroundings, extremely warm welcome (to the point they had lit the log burner and stuck hot water bottles in the bed before we had even arrived) Wonderful place to stay if visiting Glencoe and surrounding areas! Oban and fort William within 35 minute driving distances and ferry links to the isles very accessible from here! Book early! This place will not hang around!! Cant praise enough!! Well done Hynal and Andy and thanks for such a wonderful stay!!Richard2017-01-27T00:00:00Z
We had a great time staying at Tigh Bhan - the studio was well equipped and was everything we hoped for. The location is great for exploring the area. Andy and Hynal were excellent hosts, helpful and made us feel very at home.David and Eleanor2016-06-05T00:00:00Z
The studio is very comfortable, a lot of light and air, high ceilings, large windows, better that the photos. It is actually an attached house, a part of little B&B with private entrance. We did not see and hear any other guests. It was very quite and private. Fast WiFi and little TV with hundreds of channels, cosy fireplace. Private garden is a great bonus if the weather permits to sit outside (not in our case). Studio is 10 min drive from Glen Coe and 40 min from Oban, good base for the area. Andy and Hynal are very friendly and helpful hosts, thank you very much for the stay.Nadja2016-07-07T00:00:00Z
A great little studio, ideally located for exploring the Glencoe region. Clean and cosy. The wood burning stove was very welcome in our late winter/early spring visit!Stuart2017-03-12T00:00:00Z

Host was spot on with communication, replying promptly to all our messages, and happy to help each time. The house was spot on, and very very well equipped. The location is perfect, in driving distance of Fort William and Ben Nevis as well as Glencoe and good access to the local area. It's situated on a fairly main road, so there is a bit of road noise at times, but on the flip side it made finding it and travelling around super easy. All in all a great experience, the house feels lived in with a good personality, which is what we love about airbnb properties. We had our week planned out, but have no doubt that Darren would have been able to suggest plenty of activities if we'd needed it (another advantage of airbnb). Hopefully we'll make time to return!Mike2016-06-11T00:00:00Z
Wir hatten in diesem Haus eine wunderbare Zeit. So viel Platz! zusätzlich zu den zwei Schlafzimmern gibt es zwei geräumige Wintergärten und eine kuschellige Stufe mit Kamin. Durch den Garten geht's gleich an den Steinstrand. Die Küche ist super ausgestattet. Die Betten waren schon bezogen. Alles ist sauber und ordentlich. Eine tolle Bibliothek läd zum Lesen ein. Alles war wie beschrieben und wir können die Location jedem weiter empfehlen!!!Christian2016-07-27T00:00:00Z
Nice place. Good location. Nice garden. Wonderful view. Great starting point for our holiday. The house was well equiped.Raul2016-09-02T00:00:00Z
clearly much loved and enjoyed by the owners, the cottage had a comfortable and relaxed feel, akin to your favourite pair of old slippers! Well equipped kitchen, and two conservatories with fabulous views to Loch Linnie and the Morvern Hills. Well positioned on the generally quiet A828 for both the Glencoe area and Oban.Dennis2017-05-13T00:00:00Z
We did not get to meet Darren in person, which made obtaining the key slightly confusing. From then on however, our stay at Clanach Geala was extremely pleasant. The house is a perfect balance of rustic character and modern comfort. All the necessary information concerning heating/hot water/stove was clearly detailed in the visitor's instructions. We have had a great time and I would not hesitate to go back or recommend it to friends!Beth2016-09-09T00:00:00Z
Great cottage in a wonderful location on the shores of the loch and not far from Glen Coe. Beautiful cosy house with everything you could need. We especially liked the snug with the wood burning stove. The sun room was great too! Highly recommended; we'll be back!Mike2016-09-16T00:00:00Z
Darren was very helpful and organised. Great property with simply stunning views of the Loch. Highly recommended!Jay2016-08-23T00:00:00Z
Perfect communication from hosts prior to stay and advice on things to do. The property was as described and better, with everything needed for a family stay. The location was great for touring the area, cycling, walking and even bad weather day trips to Fort William and Oban. The log fire in the snug and the sunroom were perfect after a day outside in the cold. Would definitely recommend for family stay and plan to return to explore what we missed this time.Mhairi2016-04-05T00:00:00Z

We had such a wonderful stay at Sula. It's a great house, cosy and comfortable with a modern feel to it. It's well-equipped with everything you need. And Katherine is a great host, always available via phone and email for any questions you might have. There is so much to see and do, we would have loved to stay a little longer in that beautiful corner of the world. The stunning views from the house over the fields and the bay alone are worth a stay. Definitively recommended.Barbara2016-11-18T00:00:00Z
We have just had a lovely few days at Sula. We love the area anyway, but the house itself is perfect and the location is ideal. Kat is a very helpful, friendly host. Everything worked, everything was easy and every part of this booking was a pleasure. We enjoyed seeing all the Canada geese, the Loch and hill views from the beach are (as ever for Scotland) spectacular. We were treated to beautiful sunsets and beautiful mornings. All the locals that we came across were smiley and friendly. We would very happily return.Dawn2016-10-22T00:00:00Z
Sula is utterly beautiful - a strikingly designed house in a lovely, peaceful location. A group of 6, we used it as a base for our trip to Ben Nevis, which was 30 minutes away by car. We enjoyed early walks to watch the sunrise over Cuil Bay, trips around the local area, and of course the trek up Big Ben! Sula had everything we needed, and Kat was a fantastic host, offering us loads of information and being very generous when mountain injuries meant we had to slightly delay our check out time. We hope to return soon!Julia2016-09-19T00:00:00Z
Absolute perfection is the best description for Sula. We stayed 3 nights in this secluded house and got a perfect Highland experience. It was beautiful and seeing all the little sheep everywhere was quite a treat. The house is beautiful and I love that it was made so eco-friendly. Their was a lot of space to relax and enjoy company. The windows are large... meant for staring out the beautiful landscape that is just steps outside your door. We were so pleased with our stay. I am going to be dreaming of Sula for a very long time.Amanda2017-03-20T00:00:00Z
Sula is simply an amazing house, built with love, perfect for a family like mine. Oban and the isles are 40 minutes drive, and I would reccomend Sula for wonderful trekking in Glencoe, a magic valley. The house is very big, bright and full of light, 3 bathrooms, and a kitchen that is unique for style and space. Katherine send me before arriving a lot of information, and she is very communicative and ready to answer quickly.Francesca2016-08-27T00:00:00Z
Kat was accessible at all times and was lovely in helping us find the home in the dark. The home was welcoming, very clean, and had all the amenities expected. The beds were comfortable and the towels deliciously soft. The area is quiet, with only the sound of cows mooing and sheep bleating, and in a very convenient spot to access other areas. The views are wonderful and peaceful. I would highly recommend others to stay.Tara2016-09-02T00:00:00Z
My friends and I had a great time in Katherine's house, although the house is a bit tricky to find in the first place. However, we all feels like we are in the local style and loves the view outside the house. If you are looking for a small family trip, Katherine's house will be in the top list.Tony2016-12-22T00:00:00Z
Katherine communicated with me immediately and emailed a very thorough and helpful information package. This made for a positive start to our visit. The house is very interesting, modern, eco-friendly, and yet very homelike, comfortable and inviting. One of the others in our group said that the house 'has a good flow to it'. Bathrooms and kitchen are well appointed. The surrounding area is interesting, with some homes and a farm nearby, but the environs are overall very peaceful and quiet. There are great views of Loche Linghe from the house, and a lovely shingle beach is within easy walking distance.Arlie2016-09-24T00:00:00Z

Very satisfied with everything about this property. Chris was there to meet us and explain everything we needed to know. He answered all our questions and made recommendations about where tyo find services and what to see/do. The location is exvellent, with terrific views and just a short drive from Fort William. We were so pleased we chose this cottage.Richard2016-07-02T00:00:00Z
Chris and Sarah were wonderful hosts and so accommodating towards my family and I when we were in Onich. The cottage was perfect for our stay, bright, clean,great location and very spacious. The area is absolutely stunning and there were beautiful views to the water. Chris and Sarah made us feel so welcome and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Highly recommended for a home away from home.Mairead2016-06-28T00:00:00Z
Lovely place to stay! Very comfortable, and we were looked after very well, thanks for a wonderful stay!Bonnie2016-07-01T00:00:00Z
The perfect place for exploring the Fort William area. The house is perfect - light, open including everything you need, but most stunning is the lake view. Doesn't come better! Sarah and Chris are nice and helpful hosts. The location is very much preferred to staying in Fort William, and there are several nice restaurants close by. All in all the no. 1 stay for our family in Scotland. LoneLone2017-04-16T00:00:00Z
An amazing view! We enjoyed our stay here and Sarah & Chris couldn't have been nicer. They gave us great restaurant recommendations and were able to answer all our questions. Their place was well equipped and the beds were so comfortable.brooke2017-05-01T00:00:00Z
The Schoolhouse Cottage is an amazing place to stay to have access to Glencoe and the surrounding area. Onich is just across the bridge from Glencoe and just south of Fort William, making it convenient but without being right in the middle of the touristy hustle and bustle. The cottage is incredibly spacious, including a fully-equipped kitchen and a very comfortable living room. The pictures from the listing don't even do the views justice - they are truly spectacular! Sarah and Chris were very accommodating hosts and really made us feel welcome. We would absolutely stay here again!Eric2016-06-26T00:00:00Z
Absolutely wonderful. Sarah & Chris & their pup are so friendly and welcoming. This has been by far the coziest AirBnB we've stayed in. The Schoolhouse is warm, has amazing views, comfortable places to sleep, fast wifi, and is a great home base for adventuring in the area. We have literally nothing bad to say. I mean, there are gorgeous mountains right out your window! It's magic.Michael2017-03-22T00:00:00Z
Sarah' place is exactly as advertised - beautiful. Sarah was helpful and communicative, providing recommendations on local places to eat and advice on transportation. I would stay here again.Ellen2016-08-23T00:00:00Z

Great great great location!!! At lakeside! Perfectly clean and very well equipped. Lovely decorated. Wifi works well and everything we needed was there. Coffee, tea, oil, sugar etc... Even a waffle maker! Warm waffles for breakfast while enjoying lakeview! Complete relaxation garanteed!Jasmijn2016-05-10T00:00:00Z
To start, me and my girlfriend decided to choose the property for its location and for being impressed by the pictures of the cottage. The landscape for itself is already amazing all the way up to the highlands. Leaving from Edinburgh we decided to go through the Loch Lomond area to enjoy the view. As Undine already mentioned it is really recommended to go by car, but it's really easy to get there. The property is amazing, brand new, really well decorated and cosy. The rooms are great and were really clean. Also the bathroom is great and has a nice view to the Loch. The feeling of waking up in the morning and have a cup of coffee on the balcony with the view to the Loch and mountains plus the sound of birds and the water is indescribable. Undine and her husband were great with us as well. Both really energetic and friendly, really enthusiasts and up to give many nice ideas of what to do around. Our experience was great and we certainly will come back. PS: Undine was always very helpful and fast to answer all our messages.Lucas2016-04-04T00:00:00Z
This cottage is very cosy and with a fantastic view. The children played on the beach and in the garden. It is very well equipped and Undine is a wonderful host. There is so much to see and do in this area that 3 days weren't enough and we hope to be back some day. Thank you for having us, Mirjam, Arno, Mees, Tijn and Imme The NetherlandsMirjam2016-04-28T00:00:00Z
Stayed 5 nights on our first visit to the Highlands. The house is one of 12 holiday lets on the Ardrugh Estate however the setting is very peaceful and the situation of Undine's properties is ideal facing the Loch. The house is beautifully furnished and well equipped and the log burner made it very cosy in the evenings. It is about a 15 minute drive into Fort William and there is a car and passenger ferry to take you across the Loch just along the road. Alongside the many attractions in the vicinity, we recommend the waterfall walk which can be done from the house and which brings you to a feeding station for red squirrels. We had a great time.Jackie2016-09-23T00:00:00Z
The cottage is beautifully decorated. Everything you need is there for you. Undine supplies some cooking essentials eg, oil,salt,pepper,rice etc. Look before you shop for groceries. The rooms and beds are very comfortable. Best sleep. The area is absolutely gorgeous. Wait until you see it. Breathtaking views. Good location. We drove to Portree, Isle of Skye, Mallaig, Morag, and Glenfinnin. We never met our host; but communication via email was quick and helpful. Enjoy your stay. We sure did.Pamela2016-04-16T00:00:00Z
This house is wonderful, it is comfortable with everything that you need. The beds are really comfy. The view from the front room and decking is awesome. Would definitely recommend this house.Sam2017-05-09T00:00:00Z
We had the most amazing three days staying in Undine's cottage. The cottage itself is beautiful and has all the amenities and home comforts you could wish for. The location is perfect and the view from the cottage was stunning. We loved waking up in the morning and having a coffee on the patio overlooking the Loch and heading for a morning walk along the beach. Undine had a lovely welcome book which gave us all of the info about the area (shops,restaurants, etc) and also gave us some tips about what to do in the area which made our stay even better. She was most welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. We will definitely stay at the cottage again any time we're back in Scotland and recommend Undine's cottage to anyone looking for an ideal place to stay in an ideal location.Anisa2016-05-04T00:00:00Z
Undine is een geweldige gastvrouw, die zelfs brood voor ons is gaan halen in Fort William toen we arriveerden. Het huis is zeer comfortabel en heeft een fantastisch uitzicht en ligging, maar 50m van Loch Linnhe. Wij hadden geluk met het weer en konden op het strand lunchen. Het is een perfecte locatie midden tussen Fort William en Glencoe en loop vooral ook even naar de Inchree Waterfalls, aan de overkant van de weg. Dit is zeker een plek om naar terug te keren.Hans2016-08-21T00:00:00Z

Ashley est un hote très sympathique. Il nous a donné les informations sur les lieux à visiter et nous a même recherché en voiture lorsque la pluie est tombée lors d'une balade.Nicolas 2017-05-23T00:00:00Z
Amazingly beautiful views and a wonderfully comfortable and lovely space. Really great access to Glencoe and some wonderful hiking too! Ashley was super friendly and helpful! We really enjoyed our stay!Elizabeth2017-05-09T00:00:00Z
What a great stay in Glencoe in Ashley s house, cant be cleaner, perfect location, rooms are very nice, i would recommend this place to anyone who d like to stay in the area! Perfect place!Maxime2017-04-17T00:00:00Z
Ashley is a great person, welcoming and giving good advices because we ate amazing fish thanks to him. The room was nice, bigger than I thought with the present pictures. Eveyrthing was clean, the neighborhood was calm and the breakfast was a good moment ! So, it was a really nice time there ! Thanks againDee2017-04-20T00:00:00Z
Great host, very helpfull and the room was great as well. Perfect! True gem!Niels2017-05-20T00:00:00Z
Ashely is a wonderful host, he showed us the attractions in the region and tips about traveling on the road. The house itself is clean and close to the loch, and not very far from three sisters and Oban. There are a few walk routes near the house, so a great choice to stay!Shuang2017-05-06T00:00:00Z
Ashley is a great host. Put on a nice breakfast for us had a good chat. Made us few very welcome. The room was spacious and comfortable. Would recommend Ashley's place to anyone travelling around the area.Alexander2017-05-25T00:00:00Z
Ashley was great and immediately made us feel at home. The place was very clean and homely and the location was superb with trails from the back of the house into the mountains. Everyone we met was very friendly and our kids made a lot of friends playing in front of the house and down on the community trampoline. For anyone that likes downhill mountain biking, a local rider has gone to great lengths to create and mark out several downhill trails up the hill behind the house which Ashley's neighbour was kind enough to show us. My son spent our first evening exploring them and having a lot of fun after a long drive! Ashley is very knowledgeable about the local area including walking and riding and is a great person to get advice from if you are new to the area. Can't wait till we return!Jon2017-04-08T00:00:00Z

My husband booked us a couple of days away for Valentines day this year. Mary was very accommodating with us turning up late to check in. Mary simply made sure we could get in and we arrived when we could. There was bubbly and biscuits on arrival which were greatly received! The cottage itself is absolutely perfect, the place was immaculate and attention has obviously been put into the finest detail. We would 100% recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a quiet get away from the hustle and bustle of life, it was just perfect.Taylor2017-02-15T00:00:00Z
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour au Bluebell Cottage. Tout y est pour qu'on se sente au mieux comme à la maison. Nous étions 4 personnes dont un bébé tout le monde s'est senti parfaitement bien. La propreté est irréprochable et Mary d'une grande gentillesse. Le logement est parfaitement situé pour visiter la région de Glencoe. Nous n'avons passé que 2 nuits et aurions aimé rester plus longtemps ! Thank's Mary ThibaultThibault2017-04-23T00:00:00Z
Great Host and Cottage to spend Holiday in Glencoe. Amazing place with stunning scenery. Will definitely choose to stay at Mary's bluebell Cottage on our next visit.Kishore2017-05-07T00:00:00Z
What a brilliant find this was, and one of the best places I've ever stayed. We were a group of two couples, so really enjoyed that the rooms were on separate floors. The cottage was impeccably clean on arrival and has everything you need. Location superb, plenty of walking/scenery within 20 mins drive. Thank you to Mary for her hospitality and recommendations. I would happily recommend this cottage to anyone and may well be back in the summer season.John2017-02-19T00:00:00Z
My family and I had a really lovely few days in the cottage. Wine and snacks on arrival, lovely toiletries in bathrooms, log burner ready to light, and great restaurant recommendations. Went for a run (walk uphill!) from the cottage into the woods and got a stunning view over the loch. High speed boat trip from seaxplorer in village highly recommended.Anika2017-04-13T00:00:00Z

This apartment was in a great location, right between Ft. William and Glencoe, which was perfect for our three night stay. The hosts were accomodationg and helpful, and even welcomed us with fresh cut flowers, a fruit bowl, and a bottle of wine. The kitchen was the most well-stocked we've ever stayed in, with any kind of utensil you could need. We would recommend this apartment.Dustin2016-05-29T00:00:00Z
Great place, great host, no problemsDanny2016-09-17T00:00:00Z
Snowberry Cottage was wonderful. It had every convenience we needed. It was modern, clean, tidy, centrally located, comfortable, roomy and had beautiful views. We were able to travel to Lock Ness and Inverness in a day and return as well as being close to Fort William and Glencoe ski resort. Anne was very helpful giving us direction from Glencoe Village when we arrived late at night and happy to meet us at the cottage when we arrived. She was more than happy to receive phone calls from us about directions and time of arrival. The fruit basket, wine and Buscuits were a welcome treat. The scenic views were fabulous. We wanted to stay longer and can't wait to return. The signage on the road near the cottage is hard to see especially at night.Melissa2016-03-22T00:00:00Z
Strawberry Cottage was the perfect property for our short stay in Scotland. My wife and I stayed there with our two 5 year olds for three nights and could not have asked for more from the property. It had everything we need and much more. The location was perfect for us to get to the Nevis Range and Glencoe as we had planned. The host was great and presented the property to us immaculately.James2016-04-02T00:00:00Z
Made to feel very welcome by the host. Greeted on arrival with a lovely bottle of wine, shortbread and tablet which was a lovely gesture. Host explained how everything worked heating etc. Cottage itself is lovely very warm, cosy and comfortable. Bedrooms nice and clean and the showers were brilliant ! Location to Fort William and surrounding area perfect.louise2016-07-05T00:00:00Z
Our stay at Snowberry was great. It was very well stocked (we were greeted with fruit and a bottle of wine when we first arrive), everything was there for our needs and it was clean and comfortable. The owner was also close by if needed. It was very relaxing and restorative, though we were glad that we had a car to get around. So clean and comfortable, thanks Anne and Katie!Sarah2015-09-10T00:00:00Z
To be honest it was more than expected. We were shown all round the cottage on arrival with everything explain, and there was even a gift of wine and fruit. Everything we needed for the stay was there and was more than expected as the kitchen is very well stocked with equipment. The photos of the place don't really do it justice. It looked lovely in photos but even better in person. It is a bit out of the way but gives it a bit of charm. Fort William is only 20 minute drive up the road. Then 10 mins in the opposite direct was a co op were we stopped off in on the way there in Ballachulish next to the tourist information centre. Just a lovely place l, beautiful views of sunset at the bottom of the road, had everything we needed, we could enjoy our evenings relaxing with a glass of wine in the beautiful cottageCharlie2016-08-18T00:00:00Z

Absolutely perfect flat with expansive view of the Loch. Mairi was a great host - pointing us to a beautiful 20 min walk to a wonderful restaurant for dinner and helping us find the sights around Glencoe we had one to see. We were sorry we only had one night here.Bob2016-08-11T00:00:00Z
The most beautiful apartment we have stayed in so far. We were greeted at the car by Tony who showed us in and gave us suggestions for dinner. We later met Mairi who was equally as helpful and welcoming, and their cute puppy. The apartment itself was stunning, overlooking the water with French Windows and a patio. Every furnishing was luxurious, it really felt like we were staying in a 5 star hotel. Smaller touches that made it even nicer were Scottish shortbread cookies left out for us, fresh milk, a real coffee machine and bottled water all free of charge. The bedsheets were of amazing quality and there was a new flatscreen tv and gas fire. Will definitely be back!!Nicola2016-04-10T00:00:00Z
We had a lovely stay in Mairi's studio. The views from the terrace over-looking the loch were just spectacular! The studio itself was perfect for our weekend stay and a great base for our Ben Nevis endeavours (approximately 25 mins from the Glen Nevis Centre). A high standard of cleanliness as well as attention to detail was maintained throughout (the studio is beautifully furnished), and the complimentary tea and coffee was a welcome sight after our long trip! Mairi was an exceptionally friendly and welcoming host and we would have no hesitation in returning. Thank you for a lovely stay!Stephen2016-05-30T00:00:00Z
Wow. That was our first impression stepping foot into our studio. Tony met us to show us around the studio and provide details on the amenities. He was very pleasant and helpful, giving suggestions to local shops and restaurants. Everything had been thought of; all of the essentials and more. The studio itself is exactly as pictured. A lush bed, extravagant bathroom, and comfy sofa to cuddle up on in front of the fireplace. We hope to return in warmer months to explore more of the local mountainous area. Regardless, waking up to a loch side view was a treat. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely recommend to anyone traveling to the area!Brittany2016-01-05T00:00:00Z
We had a wonderful time at the appartement. The room and all it's equipment is fabalous. The view is also incredible. Mairi did everything to give us a joyful stay. Place is perfect to explore Ben Nevis and Glencoe. Will be back for a longer period! Thanks Mairi!Frank2016-07-29T00:00:00Z

Ewan was our first contact with Scotland and his kindness and his disponibility were very pleasant like our stay in Appin house. We received a warm welcome from Ewan's father (Dave) in spite of our 3 hours late. Appin house is an excellent accommodation, cosy, comfortable, lovely where we can enjoy nature. Thank you Dave for your hospitality and having allowed us to discover your beautiful and quiet garden and also the wonderful view.Isabelle2016-05-23T00:00:00Z
Ewan's Dad, Dave met us and welcomed us very warmly. He was very helpful, giving great advice with regard to things to do in the rather inclement weather...and we took his advice and saw some amazing countryside, visited Tobermorey and experienced local life by using a number of the ferries. Thank you so much Dave for your hospitality. Birch Lodge was just ...the best...! We very much enjoyed our stay here and wished we could have stayed longer.Jenny2016-07-05T00:00:00Z
We very much enjoyed our stay in the surprisingly spacious lodge - the views across Loch Linnhe are beautiful and the location was great, allowing us to get to Fort William, Glen Coe, and Lismore. The lodge itself was very comfortable, clean and well equipped, hopefully we'll have a chance to revisit in the future.Fred2016-05-14T00:00:00Z
We had a great stay at Ewan's, the location was beautiful and the lodge was ideal. The wood burning stove was very cosy and the views were amazing. We brought our own food to cook and the facilities were adequate. We did a shortish walk our first day recommended by Ewan and went to Glencoe mountain ski resort and Glenfinnan Viaduct also which were both great.Maeve2017-02-13T00:00:00Z
Ewan and his father were great hosts. Easy communication and a handful of tips and recommendations about places to see and eat if needed. The apartment was clean, spacious and a perfect calm place to sleep and enjoy the landscape. Perfect location between Oban and Fort William/Glencoe both reachable in 20-30 minutes by car.Fabian2017-04-08T00:00:00Z
We had such a lovely time in Ewans house, it had everything we could posibly need. It was clean, cozy and we felt right at home. We will defenitly come back.Pablo2016-11-19T00:00:00Z
Birch Lodge is a charming, cosy place ideal for romantic gateway or friends and family vacation. We slept really well and particularly enjoyed the functional wood stove. Great water pressure in the shower (which is rarely the case in UK). The whereabouts are deeply relaxing and beaufitul. The area is quiet, close to many attractions (between Oban and Glencoe, Castle Stalker, great walks and hikes). Ewan was a wonderful, helpful host (as well as his father who welcomed us), easy to contact and get in touch with. We stayed for two nights only but would have stayed a all week if we had been able to! The place is easier to get to than you would believe. We had a flat tire issue right before getting to the location but there was no problem for the tow-truck to find us.Elise2017-04-24T00:00:00Z
Quiet warm and spacious. Beautiful views of the water and not far from Oban.laura2017-04-10T00:00:00Z

We had the perfect trip away staying at Ard Daraich. The location was ideally remote to feel like you were away from it all, but close enough to Fort William for the few necessities. The garden was something else, that would twist and turn revealing unexpected plants and flowers. The house was beautifully finished, with a fully equipped kitchen, cosy log burner and comfortable bed. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a visit to the Highlands!Chris2017-05-01T00:00:00Z
A great cottage for two, cosy and clean - the velux windows open to fantastic fresh air and views of the mountains, and there are some excellent walking routes nearby. Great if you're looking for a break away from the bustle of working life. There's an eclectic mix of books which you can curl up with in front of the log fire in the evenings. Highly recommended!Kirsty2017-01-23T00:00:00Z
Anna and Norrie's cottage was remote as promised, just off the loch. Whilst the ferry was fun, it is pricey, but Anna and Norrie helped with the fare. The cottage was warm, with underfloor heating and a wood burning stove. The kitchen had most of the equipment one would need. A drying room was very welcome indeed after long wet walks. The wifi however was painfully slow and good for little more than emails. This being said, in Fort William there were numerous near clonal B I was much happier to stay in a place with character, nestled inside a beautiful garden with birds frequenting kitchen window. We even got some fresh eggs from the plucky hens.Stefan2017-03-18T00:00:00Z
Beautiful, comfortable house in the middle of some great scenery.Joshua2017-02-26T00:00:00Z
We had a wonderful stay at Ard Daraich. Anna and Norrie were very welcoming and have created an idyllic retreat nestled in the most picturesque part of the Highlands. The house is really cosy and comfortable and kitted out with everything you need. The kitchen is really well equipped, the sofas and living area are really cosy and the bed is big and comfortable. We spent 3 very happy days swapping between exploring the beautiful surroundings and curled up on the sofa reading in front of the fire. Thank you!Claudia and Ally2016-11-29T00:00:00Z
We had a relaxing two night stay in Anna and Norrie's cosy cottage. Although we were without a car, we had some lovely local walks, through the valley and along the shore and the cottage was the perfect base to come back to - we particularly loved the huge bookshelf and super comfy bed.Emma2016-01-11T00:00:00Z

We loved our time at Gollanfield. Perfect well equipt house for our selves and our sons family for nearly a week. The location is breathtakingly beautiful with easy access to all sorts of great places and sites to see. Everyone we met in Onich and surrounds were so friendly and helpful. We recommend this house to all. Thank u Debbie.Susie2016-05-15T00:00:00Z
My 3 friends and I stayed at Debbie's house for a week during our trip around Scotland. During that week we had an absolutely amazing experience I'd definitely recommend her place. Not only is it very well-equipped with everything you need in the kitchen or bathroom, it's also very clean and has an incredible view of the lake and the night sky. You can even see the Milky Way! Something we're super thankful for was how helpful Debbie has been with everything: she not only has a folder with recommendations for restaurants, bars and all the other super useful information, but she also helped us a lot with recommendations and directions when it came to exploring the rest of Scotland and leisure activities, contributing a lot to making this one of the best holidays we've eber been on. Thank you so much, Debbie! :)Julian2016-09-29T00:00:00Z
Bij aankomst stond de kop thee klaar om thee te zetten en was de tafel gedekt met 5 scones. Het huis is mooi gelegen en voorzien van alle gemakken. Behalve de open haard mag net gebruikt worden. Ik had het kunnen weten, maar toch is het een grote teleurstelling. Verder ruim met drie grote slaapkamers, een woonkamer en een ruime keuken. Jammer alleen dat er geen goede handleiding was voor de warm water voorziening en de verwarming. Het is ons niet gelukt om de verwarming goed te programmeren. Na een paar dagen wel de warm water voorziening. Zo wie zo waren de instructies miniem. Ook geen handleiding voor de televisie en de CD speler. Wel een goede WiFi verbinding. Het is een goede plek om vandaar uit naar de Ben Nevis, naar Glencoe en naar de eilanden te reizen. Over het algemeen een positieve ervaring die ik zeker aan anderen wil aanbevelen. Behalve dan de prijs. Er wordt geadverteerd voor 24 pond per nacht. Wij betaalden voor 4 nachten 705 pond wat wel heel erg duur is, zelfs voor deze mooi locatie en uitstekende woning.christa2016-05-05T00:00:00Z
This was a comfortable and well appointed clean house in an absolutely fabulous location. We loved our week there, from walks down to the loch at the end of the garden, to using it as a base to climb Ben Nevis. It was everything the advert promised and more, we would highly recommend it and hope to go again some day.Louise2016-10-29T00:00:00Z
Just absolutely incredible. The house is beautiful and so comfortable. The location and view from the house is breathtaking. I think I must of have taken 1000 photos. Great communication and checkin from the host. They even let us light fireworks on New Years which was a great experience. Debbie even sent us some tips of things to do in the area. So close to Fort William and the Glencoe ski fields. The house itself is beautifully furnished and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. Thank you Debbie for the most wonderful stay. Very highly recommendedKylie2017-01-03T00:00:00Z
A lovely house with an amazing view of the loch! Close to shops, restaurants and a good base to explore Loch Ness and Fort William. Amazing walks nearby with spectacular views! Debbie was very quick in answering my emails and even booked me in to the local hairdresser!Dalia2016-12-15T00:00:00Z

Pat and Fedor were great hosts! They were so welcoming and friendly, we really enjoyed staying with them and chatting. Their pets are adorable too, and so sweet! Pat and Fedor made sure that we had everything we needed right from the get go, we had a full breakfast both mornings, they saved cooked dinners for us, and encouraged us to use the kitchen to prepack a lunch before a hike one day. Our room and ensuite bathroom were also cosy, comfortable, and clean. Their home was lovely and relaxed, we couldn't have had a more pleasant stay!Moira2016-05-16T00:00:00Z
She inviyed us to join them for supperm This was very kind as well as outside the the parameters of the Airbnb agreement. We were certainly made to feel most welcome and ejoyed all aspects of our visit. Thanks Pat and FedorWilliam2016-10-08T00:00:00Z
Pat goes above and beyond your typical host to enrich your stay from all sides. Quality accommodation in a gorgeous setting with a host that really makes you feel like a friend stopping over for a visit. The bed was very comfy, the bathroom spacious and well equipped, breakfast and dinner if you should so choose, and Scotland green views out all the windows! Can't be beat.Mary2017-01-06T00:00:00Z
We arrived at Pat and Fedor's place and felt very welcome immediately. We were greeted with a warm cup of tea, good conversation and caring hosts which lasted for the duration of our stay. We loved the area and were happy to have the recommendations of our hosts to enjoy the time amidst some rainy weather. Our room was cozy and there were even bath oils for a nice soak after a long day. We had a great time and are very happy to have stayed here!Krysta 2015-07-19T00:00:00Z
Once we found Pat and Fedor's house, they were an absolute joy! Bedroom and bathrooms were excellent. Breakfast was great. They were both so kind and helpful in so many ways. Had some great chats. We would recommend staying here without hesitation.George2016-05-23T00:00:00Z
Pat et Fédor avaient vraiment tout prévu! Nous nous sommes sentis tout à fait à l'aise dés notre arrivée grâce à leurs instructions écrites et aux multiples petites attentions dans la maison! Pendant notre séjour, ils ont mis tout en oeuvre pour nous faciliter nos excursions, on s'est sentis en famille et c'était bien agréable! Un grand merci à tous les deux!!!!marie-pierre2015-10-16T00:00:00Z
I cannot say enough good things about Pat and Fedor. After a full day of traveling, they welcomed my husband and I in as if we were family. We ended up joining them for dinner and talked for hours. They also gave us great travel advice including a beautiful hike right in the neighborhood. Great experience!Stephanie2017-04-25T00:00:00Z
Staying with Pat and Fedor will be remembered as one of our most special airbnb experiences. They provided a lovely dinner shortly after we arrived; we so enjoyed our conversation. Breakfast the next morning in the sunny dining room was super as well. Pat and Fedor have a sweet, comfortable home and made us feel like part of the family. Thank you so much for your kind hospitality!Kelly2015-06-30T00:00:00Z

Anti-Bullying Initiatives
Promoting a Safe and Caring Environment for All Students
Strongsville City Schools will not tolerate behavior that infringes on the safety or well-being of any student. This belief applies whenever a student is on school grounds, traveling to and from school or a school-sponsored activity or during a school-sponsored activity. Therefore, the school(s) and community have an obligation to promote mutual respect, tolerance, and acceptance. Simply stated, we believe a student shall not intimidate or harass another student through words or actions.
Bullying is...
The District believe that each student has the right to a safe and healthy school environment - an environment where all students are allowed to share their ideas, their likes and dislikes, and be themselves. What follows is a description of unacceptable types of bullying behaviors that will not be tolerated.
A student is being bullied when he/she is exposed to repeated, deliberate hostility and/or aggression designed to injure, disturb, or do harm to a student, either from an individual student or a group of students. Bullying includes:
Strongsville City Schools are working diligently to not only implement policies, but to educate our students, staff, and parents in effectively dealing with bullying. It is our goal that all students will develop the skills necessary to identify bullying behaviors, possess the developed strategies to address the bullying behaviors, and seek adult assistance when repeated incidents occur. The school guidance and counseling staff has developed and conducts student training as part of our ongoing Bully Prevention Program. The program includes: classroom meetings, advisory groups, role-plays, and anti-bullying lessons that may be incorporated into the academic day.
School employees cannot address a bullying concern if they are unaware of a problem. Students (and parents) should report repeated bullying incidents they endure or observe to teachers, guidance counselors, or administrators. This can be done by a phone call, a note from the parent or student, or speaking personally to an adult staff member at school.
Bullying reports will be investigated and the privacy and safety of the student/parents making the reports will be protected. Students and parents need to trust school staff to work in the best interest of their child and understand that most bullying behaviors can be reduced and possibly eliminated once reported.
School-wide interventions will vary to accommodate the varying degrees of bullying incidents and the students involved. These interventions will include; counseling, mediation/peer mediation, apologies/written apologies, parent meetings, and follow the progressive discipline plan consequences set forth by Strongsville City Schools.

London, July 29 (ANI): British Foreign Secretary David Miliband has commended efforts of the Obama administration to re-balance the relationship between the United States and Pakistan saying it is very important to stabilize Pakistan in order to maintain peace in Afghanistan.
"We need a more stable Pakistan to get a more stable Afghanistan. That's why I really applaud what President Obama and Secretary Clinton are doing in terms of re-balancing the US relationship with Pakistan as well," Miliband said.
In an interview with the PBS news, Miliband stressed that military can only create space for sustainable politics and sustainable governance, and that there can not be a long term military solution for the region's problem.
"We are not trying to create a colony in Afghanistan. We are trying to ensure that Afghan government is legitimate and, on 20th August, elected Afghan government is able to defend its own country," The Nation quoted Miliband, as saying.
He said that it was in Britain's interest to deploy troops in large numbers in Afghanistan.
"After all, nearly three-quarters of the terrorist plots that have been either taken place or foiled against the UK have their links into the badlands between Afghanistan and Pakistan," added Miliband. (ANI)

The Empowerment Experiment: My Year of Buying Black
In 2009, the Andersons - an Ivy league-educated, professional suburban couple with two young daughters - made history when they carried out a public pledge to completely live off black business for an entire year. It was called "The Empowerment Experiment." Via press coverage, the compelling story of the Andersons' stand and sacrifice, and the credibility of the landmark experiment, the family was able to articulate and prove the importance of self-help economics in the black community as well as increase awareness of how the lack of support for black businesses and professionals leads to the social crises that disproportionately impact black families and neighborhoods.
In this speech, Maggie Anderson shares the lessons learned from her book, Our Black Year, delivering an inspirational and intelligent message about homespun economic empowerment and "conscious consumerism." Her expertise in entrepreneurship, consumerism, economic empowerment, community stewardship, activism, supplier diversity, and self-help economics fuels this fascinating speech.
Conscious Consumerism: Make a Difference with Your Dollars
There are 60 KFC franchises in the Chicago Area and not one of them is black-owned. Companies ranging from fast food chains to Polo Ralph Lauren make enormous amounts of money off the black dollar, yet none of it is divested back to that community by engaging black-owned businesses. While marketing and HR have finally extended their reach to include African Americans - even prominently featuring black individuals in their ad campaigns, for instance - the same is not reciprocated in supply and management.
Maggie Anderson has become the leader of a self-help economics (or "conscious consumerism") movement that brings together business owners, consumers, corporations, and professional and activist groups to make sure that more quality minority-owned businesses get supported - as stand-alone entities and as suppliers, vendors, and franchises. Conscious consumerism, she explains, is all about supporting businesses that empower struggling communities. In this talk, Anderson rallies conscious consumers and progressive corporations alike to support and grow quality minority businesses in order to put the community's wealth back into its underserved neighborhoods, and explains why this outlook is so important - not just to minority communities, but to America as a whole.
Race & the Economy
In today's economy, one of the nation's primary goals should be to create more jobs for minority groups disproportionately affected by the financial downturn. In so doing, we would not only begin to bridge the economic gap between white and ethnic communities, but also invest traditionally troubled communities with empowered leaders engaged in the market economy who youth could look up to, instead of turning to drug lords and gang heads for guidance.
In this speech, Maggie Anderson covers such fascinating and underexplored topics as America's racially divided economy, the lack of supplier diversity in corporate America, economic disenfranchisement of minority groups, buying power vs. business/economic power, and self-help economics in ethnic communities. Specifically, on this last subject, she discusses whether or not it is racist for specific ethnic groups to exclusively support their communities' businesses, and whether public opinion on this matter changes with regard to the black community versus other groups. This message is perfect for college audiences of any color to inspire them to become those leaders who will improve their communities.
A Call to Women: Find Your Cause
First and foremost, Maggie Anderson considers herself a mom - an "everyday mom," she says. But however "everyday" she may be, she found one cause dear to her heart and spurred by a conviction that she could do something about it, created a transnational movement.
In this inspirational presentation, Anderson urges all women to find their cause. Whether they are mothers, housewives, professionals, or working moms, women should not feel constricted to solely caring for their families or immediate social spheres, but should feel empowered to act for the good of the greater community. After all, the ultimate legacy of The Empowerment Experiment is to prove to individuals from all walks of life that a single person can make a difference, just as Anderson did. This message is perfect for women's groups and college students.

Item # 054L610S | MFR # 26344
This item is no longer available.
Looking for an easy-to-use digital camera with a bit more punch than your old point-and-shoot? Nikon's 16-megapixel Coolpix L610 packs potent features into a super-compact camera you'll never want to leave at home. From long-range zoom to HD video, the L610 balances high performance with intuitive operation.
Whether at your child's soccer game, the beach, or traveling abroad, a versatile camera will give you lots of shooting options. With the L610, you can get close-ups of your daughter on the field without leaving your spot on the sideline, thanks to 14X optical zoom. Or go wide-angle and photograph a magnificent sunset over the ocean. Or get up close and personal with a small flower as close as 1 cm for a macro shot. You can even add filter effects to stored images to create stylized photos that look more like works of art than snapshots.
Optical image stabilization ensures that the quality of your pictures won't be dependent on keeping a steady hand. And a powerful CMOS sensor means that your images will sparkle with detail even in low-light settings. Choose from one of 19 scene settings based on your environment, or just let the L610's Auto Mode take control and adjust the settings for you on the fly.
No need to tote around a separate camcorder. The L610 records full-HD video, so you're always ready to capture those elusive moments when the video camera is stuffed in a closet and your smartphone's video capabilities just don't cut it. If 1080p video isn't enough to impress your friends, take a picture using 3D mode for viewing on a 3D-ready TV and watch your photos literally jump out of the screen. (Just don't forget the 3D glasses.)
I'm a very amateur user, and am greatly pleased with this camera. It's easy to use - quite intuitive - with more features and capabilities than I had expected. I'm still learning...

Inputs and Outputs Notes
Supplied Software
LCD Monitor: The Nikon Coolpix L610 has a 3" TFT LCD monitor featuring approximately 460,000 pixels and a five-level brightness adjustment. The LCD monitor's wide-angle viewing area makes it easy to see and use. The LCD monitor has approximately 96% horizontal and vertical coverage in the shooting and playback modes. There is no separate viewfinder on the camera.
Image Sensor: The Coolpix L610 features a 1/2.3" CMOS image sensor with a total pixel count of approximately 16.79-million pixels. The effective pixel count is 16.1-million.
Optics: The Coolpix L610 digital camera uses a Nikkor glass zoom lens for superb image quality. Every aspect of the lens manufacturing process is controlled by Nikon. The Nikkor lens is designed for the specific camera and image sensor combination. The Coolpix L610 uses a 14x optical zoom, that is equivalent to a 25-350mm lens in 35mm photography. Coupled with the 2x digital zoom, the camera's total zoom capability is 28x. The angle of view is equivalent to that of approximately 700mm lens (35mm format).
Vibration Reduction (VR) Image Stabilization: The Coolpix L610's Optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Stabilization System effectively corrects blur that commonly occurs when shooting at slow shutter speeds or when zoomed in. The camera utilizes lens shift technology to reduce the effect of camera shake.
Built-in Memory: The camera has a built-in 28 MB internal memory for storing still images and movies with sound. Images will be saved to the internal memory when no memory card is inserted. Using the internal memory, you can store approximately 4 images at the highest resolution, or 10 seconds of High Definition video.
Recording Media: In addition to the built-in memory, images can be recorded onto SD, SDHC, or SDXC Memory cards. When an SD Memory card is inserted in the camera, the images are automatically recorded onto the card. The camera can support SD cards up to 2 GB, SDHC cards from 4 GB to 32 GB, and SDXC cards of 64 GB or 128 GB. Memory cards with a Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended for recording movies.
Image Sizes: The Coolpix L610 records still images in JPEG format, as well as High Definition and Standard Definition movies in MOV format (Video: MPEG-4 AVC/H.264; Audio: LPCM stereo). You have a choice of seven still image size options and two movie options:
Note: The maximum movie length for each movie is 29 minutes, and the maximum file size is 4 GB, regardless of the memory card capacity.
3D Photography: The camera can take 3D photos that are viewable on a 3D-compatible TV or monitor. Images are recorded at a size of 1920 x 1080. Recording a 3D image is a two-step process. After taking the initial picture (left eye image), a second picture (right eye image) is taken automatically by moving the camera horizontally to the right until the subject is aligned with the guide on the monitor. To play back 3D images, you will need to connect the camera to the TV via a 3D-compatible HDMI cable. Only the initial (left eye) image can be viewed in the camera's monitor.
Shooting Modes: You can choose one of the following shooting modes:
Continuous Shooting: You can set the camera to take one picture at a time or multiple images by selecting one of the following options:
Self-timer: The camera is equipped with a 10 second timer for self-portraits.
Focus Area Selection: You can select between the following Focus Area Selection methods to determine where the camera focuses:
Color Options: You can shoot still images with several color options: Standard color, Vivid color, Black-and-white, Sepia, and Cyanotype.
Macro Mode: Macro mode is used for taking pictures of objects as close as 0.4". The flash may be unable to light entire subject at distances of less than 1 feet 8 inches.
Focus Lock: The Focus Lock feature is used to focus on off-centered subjects in the frame while shooting in Center AF mode.
AF-Assist Illuminator: If lighting is poor, the AF-assist illuminator may light to assist the focus operation when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The illuminator has a range of about 6' 7" at the maximum wide-angle position and 3' 7" at the maximum telephoto position. You can turn this function on or off, as desired.
Blink Warning Function: The Blink Warning function is available when you are shooting in Easy Auto, Portrait, or Night Portrait mode. When the camera detects that one or more human subjects may have blinked, the blink warning screen is displayed. The subject is framed by a yellow border, allowing you to check the picture and decide whether or not to take another picture.
Exposure Compensation: You can alter the exposure from the value suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can adjust the exposure from -2.0 to +2.0 EV in 1/3 steps.
ISO Settings: Sensitivity is the measure of how quickly the camera reacts to light. The higher the sensitivity, the less light needed to make an exposure. The camera features ISO settings of Auto, 125, 200, 400, 800, 1600, and 3200.
White Balance: You can set the White Balance to Auto, Daylight, Incandescent, Fluorescent, Cloudy, or Flash. You can also choose Preset Manual and use a neutral-colored object as a reference to set the white balance under unusual lighting conditions.
Built-in Flash: The Coolpix L610 has a built-in Speedlite flash with a range of 1'-8" to 19' (Wide angle) and 5' to 10' (Telephoto). You can choose from the following flash modes:
In-Camera Red-Eye Fix: If the camera detects red-eye after the pre-flash has fired, advanced red-eye reduction processing is used to further reduce red-eye, slightly increasing the time required before the next picture can be taken.
Playback Menu: The following options are available in the playback mode:
Thumbnail Playback: During playback, you can view multiple thumbnail images (4, 9, or 16) at a time. While these "contact sheets" are displayed, you can use the multi-selector to highlight individual pictures. Highlighted pictures can be deleted, if desired.
Calendar Display: This feature displays a calendar allowing you to select and view pictures taken on the same date.
Playback Zoom: During playback, you can enlarge a still image 3x to 10x. Once the image is zoomed, you can use the multi-selector to scroll around to non-visible portions of the image. You can record a new picture of the cropped image by pressing the shutter button.
Multi-Language Menu: You can choose from 31 different menu display languages including English, Spanish or French.
Printing Pictures: You can print pictures stored in the internal memory or on the memory card by using the Print Set option in the playback menu. Using DPOF (Digital Print Order Form), you can designate which images to print, and how many copies to print. Pictures can be printed as followed:
Power Requirements: The Coolpix L610 is powered by two "AA" batteries. You can use alkaline (supplied) or lithium non-rechargeable batteries, or Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) rechargeables. For best performance, you should use the camera's setup menu to indicate the type of batteries being used. The approximate battery life for each type of battery is as follows:
|Battery Type
|Still Images
|120 shots
|11 min
|470 shots
|1 hr 20 min
|330 shots
|50 min
Auto Off: When the camera is operated on battery power, the Auto Off mode will automatically turn off the monitor to reduce the drain on the batteries if no operations are performed for the length of time specified in the Auto Off menu. The time limit for the Auto Off mode can be set to 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes or 30 minutes.
HDMI: The Coolpix L610 is equipped with a mini-HDMI (Type C) output, allowing you to connect the camera to an HDTV. An optional mini-HDMI-to-HDMI cable is required. The camera's HDMI output can be set to Auto, 480p, 720p or 1080i. In addition, the HDMI 3D Output setting allows you to view your 3D images on a 3D-capable TV.
USB/Audio-Video Output: The camera features a single proprietary jack on the side of the camera for connecting the supplied USB cable (UC-E16) or AV cable (EG-CP16). This one output allows you to download your photos to your computer or printer via USB using the supplied USB cable, or view your photos on a TV using an optional AV cable. The USB interface is USB 2.0 Hi-Speed compatible. The video output is NTSC or PAL compatible.
ViewNX 2 CD-ROM: The supplied CD-ROM contains the following software:
Compatible Operating Systems: The supplied software will work with the following operating systems:
At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere. That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team. They verify what's in the box, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.
I like cameras that help me take better pictures. I like the Coolpix L610. The 3D image option tells me exactly what I need to do to create a 3D image. The scene menu has settings for just about any situation I would need a camera for fireworks, beach, museum, party/indoor, sonw, dusk/dawn, etc. And it has a setting for food (for, you know, Twitter and stuff), pets, sports (for capturing fast action), and more.
I tried using a many different settings as possible shooting test images in the Crutchfield Labs, and they all worked very well. While I could occasionally see instances where I might get a better image in manual mode (assuming I knew what parameters to tweak), the end results were more than adequate and great for snapping photos on the fly.

Installed MillworkBailey relocated the tub and tucked it into a cozy surround that includes a pair of glass-shelved hanging cabinets and an inset beveled mirror. The mirror adds sparkle and enlarges the space, while the rows of open shelving give the room lots of storage and the vintage-apothecary feel Bailey wanted.
Chose Simple Colors
There's a lot going on in this tiny room, but the classic black-and-white palette with brass accents keeps things from looking chaotic. The millwork's lacquered finish adds depth and polish, and the traditional pattern of the marble hex floor tile is a nod toward the house's 1930s roots.

"reign in blood"
Since: May 09
#1 Feb 27, 2013
DEAR AMY: I am jealous of my boyfriend's sister and it causes me such anguish. I don't like feeling this way.
We have a long-distance relationship and see each other every four or five weeks. We talk every day on the phone and email, etc., but I get jealous when he spends time with her. She lives nearby, and they are very close. They spend a lot of time together, especially when she is between boyfriends. To make things more complicated, he is separated and lives next door to his wife.
I realized today that I am jealous because he gets to have emotional support, whereas I am alone and do not pursue close relationships with other men. My siblings do not live near me, and I'm not close with them, anyway.
I have tried to tell myself not to care. It's not like I fear it is a romantic situation, but when he was really sick recently, she took care of him. They spend weekends together. Once I went to visit him, and he invited her to join us on an outing!
Please help me to put this into a healthy perspective.-- Grappling Girlfriend
DEAR GIRLFRIEND: First of all, your guy isn't quite divorced. If he was divorced, it might remove that niggling doubt and insecurity that's settling round you like a fog.
It seems that you are jealous not only of the specific person he has a relationship with, but of the relationship itself. So the answer here is for you to do the hard work required to develop close and supportive friendships of your own. The more secure you feel, the less pressure you'll place on this man to fulfill all of your emotional needs. Given the distance between you, he simply can't provide everything you want.
A word to the wise: Your guy's sister is not going away. You should get to know her on your own -- through Facebook, email, etc. If you have a friendship with her (independent of your mutual connection), your jealousy will dissipate and the fog will start to lift.
DEAR AMY: I have been a teacher for many years and run a little nursery school for young children out of my home. This year I have a child whose mother is very supportive and positive about my school, but never addresses me by name.
If she emails me, she just writes, "Hi," and if she leaves a voice message she does not address it to me by name. This is the same in face-to-face conversations. It is the first time in my teaching career that I have encountered this. She is an educator herself at a local school.
I was thinking about writing her an email or asking her in person why she never says my name but am afraid to upset her.
Could you give me advice on how to tactfully solve this problem?-- Nameless
DEAR NAMELESS: I'm going to advocate for an attitude of curiosity and honesty -- probably much like what your young students demonstrate when they encounter behavior they don't quite understand.
This would best be handled in person with this parent, not via email. Say to her, "I have to bring up something a little bit awkward. I've noticed that you never seem to address me by name. Is there a reason for that? The kids call me Ms. Smith. You can call me that or Helen, either one is fine."
Stop and listen to whatever she has to say. Then tell her, "I know you understand how important it is for the children to always address people by name, so this would be a good thing to model."
Don't approach this like it's an unforgivable sign of disrespect. Be neutral and in charge and shelve your bewilderment -- and she'll respond in kind.
DEAR AMY: "Wanna Be Runaway Bride" was overwhelmed by the extent to which her parents were controlling her wedding -- all because they were footing the bill.
I've always felt that if the same time, thought and money were spent having a successful marriage rather than an extravagant wedding, there would be far less divorce.-- Laurie
DEAR LAURIE: It's a start, anyway. Thank you.

L1: So you're jealous of his sister but not that his estranged wife lives next door. And: "I am alone and do not pursue close relationships with other men." You know you can pursue close relationships with other women, right, and get that support system that way? Also, you're jealous of his *sister*. This doesn't bode well. I don't think this relationship is going to work because you have a lot of work to do on yourself.
And Amy: She doesn't WANT to get to know the sister -- she's upset when he invites his sister along to join them.
L2: Why is this a problem? Why does this bother you so much? Can't you just let it go -- shrug it off -- and get on with your day? Shouldn't someone who runs a preschool out of her home be too busy for this to be a major problem in her life?
L3: Yes, you're a brilliant philosopher who spouts words of wisdom that no one else has ever heard before.

LW1 - This is one of those letters where I would love to have more information because it would make a difference in how I respond - how long have the two of them been "dating", how old is the LW, how many relationships and what type has the LW been in before?
People seem to get the most satisfaction out of relationship when they are first satisfied with themselves. It sounds like the LW wants to have all of the benefits of a long-term, committed relationship without realizing that there are things to be done first to before you can reap the rewards. Go out, make friends (who care what gender they are), find activities to do where you live, work on being the best person you can be and supportive friendships will grow organically.
As for the boyfriend, don't go into a relationship trying to change someone or break the bonds that they have formed with others. That, too, will evolve over time as his feelings for you grow stronger and more meaningful. Be happy that he has a support system in place, because I would be more worried about someone who doesn't have close friends or family. If you can't bring yourself to feel this way, then it is ok to say that this is not the right relationship for you to be in right now. Sometimes timing/location/factors beyond your control just suck.
LW2 - Grow up. She is acknowledging you and actively participating in her child's education. Stop making a mountain out of a molehill. Amy, shame on you for encouraging this self-important behavior.
LW3 - Why did Amy even bother to print this? I would rather have 2 good letters than have a stupid third one just waste space.

A very easy way to make sure that all of the parents know how the LW would like to be addressed is to make handouts for the parents that go home with the children and sign them. Whether this is an in-home preschool or a large facility, communication is key.
My son's school sends home a paper at the beginning of each week to let the parents know what the focus will be for that week, any special days that are coming up (silly sock day, holiday party, etc) and any homework that will have (they have weekly homework, not daily, since not all of the kids attend 5 days a week). She then signs the bottom of the page, so there is no doubt what to call her.

Yup, that just about covers it. She sounds very, very young, in maturity if not in age. And because she's not close to her own siblings, she probably has difficulty understanding why he's so close to his sibling. But that doesn't give her the right to be upset or to try to control or change their relationship.
At least she doesn't have to deal with the same scenario that a Dear Prudie advice seeker put forth during the live chat on Monday, which was put online yesterday. That poor wife's husband had been having an affair with a co-worker who was killed in an accident. The wife didn't know about the affair until after the ho's death, when hubby went nuts. He was especially going nuts because she was also apparently pregnant and didn't know if he or her husband was the father (before you dismiss this as a fake letter, I gotta say that having previously worked over a decade in the legal field I saw things like this, and even stranger and more soap-operish, all the time in my work. Truth really is stranger than fiction, and there's a reason why so many lawyers and legal support staff become writers).
He'd quit his job because he just found it "too traumatic" to return to work there and had been in mourning, waking up at night crying, for three months and he wanted her to comfort and support him in his "grief". She wanted to know if, or how much longer, she should put up with it. He's lucky it wasn't me, or he wouldn't have to worry about the physical part of any affair from then on, and he'd be lucky to have a sleeping bag to sleep under a bridge with. So, this LW should count herself lucky, lol.

Pink Shift, Mount Spokane a new Environmental Ephemeral by Rydh/Sörenson
Here are Daniel Rydh and I out exploring Spokane and our delightful surroundings. We will be artist and residents at Laboratory until the end of the month. It's wonderful to be out in a new area and experiment with new work. We created a new piece in our series "Environmental Ephemerals" on Mount Spokane, this one called "Pink Shift, Mount Spokane". We are proud to announce that we'll be on local radio on Thursday, and this weekend we are going to Seattle!
Opening of "Float", Friday April 1st, 5-9pm at the Saranac Art Projects
New Work by Laboratory Artists-in-Residence Anna Sörenson and Daniel Rydh and Saranac Art Projects member Kurt Madison.
We invite you to come this April to the Saranc Art Projects to play with light, shadow, and color, as Laboratory artists-in-residence Anna Sörenson and Daniel Rydh partner with member Kurt Madison to create an immersive installation showering our space with a jubilant spectrum of reflections and refractions. An interactive piece, we encourage you to come and work with the piece and the artists, and explore how light and color can envelop, attack, and shape a space.

The exhibitions theme was flowers and the work I showed was a series I call "Frön i världen" (Seeds in the World.)

Little Lights and Landmarks
Little Lights and Land Marks is collage series made by the artist duo Rydh / Sörenson. As an artist group we work with installation indoor and temporary installations outdoors. Our three-dimensional work inspired us to work on paper, exploring light, color and composition together. We titled them Little Lights and Land Marks inspired by our light installations and our temporary works in nature. All the works are watercolor on paper.
