Cape Town Dragon Boaters Paddle to Robben Island - 3rd June 2012
WCDBA and Sisterhood paddlers and supporters on Robben Island - picture by Trevor Wilkins more pictures ..
An island just offshore, within sight of land, is always going to have a fascination to paddlers and sailors, especially an island with a history.
Dragon-boat paddlers have been talking of making a crossing ever since the sport started Africa in 1995 when two beautiful wooden flag-catching dragon boats were given to the city of Cape Town by our sister city in Taiwan. Two brief "off-the-cuff" attempts were made in 1996 and 1997 to paddle to the island, but were foiled by bad weather. Western Cape paddlers then focused on training for local and international regattas and World Championships and ideas of a crossing to Robben Island receded to wishful thinking on days when the bay looked calm and inviting.
Then in 2011 a branch of "The Sisterhood" opened in South Africa and the girls came up with a plan to paddle to Robben Island to raise funds for charity. Western Cape Dragon Boat Association (WCDBA) agreed to help them achieve this goal and to paddle across with them, thus satisfying our own long-held dream. We decided to use the wooden boats because they are strong and solidly built with an upwardly curving bow terminating in the magnificent dragon's head which is a solid part of the boat, rather than a flimsily attached, removable head, as is the case in the standard fibreglass racing dragon boats. The fibreglass boats, being flat, would arrow through waves and swells, scooping up water in the process, where the bows of the wooden boats would deflect the waves.
Historically, it was appropriate that these two magnificent boats should be the ones used for the crossing.
Dragon boating is very much a team sport. The wooden flag-catching boats take 18 paddlers, a drummer and a helm and being a team sport, you need the team together before you go anywhere! This makes it much more difficult to organise than an individual sport like running or kayaking. Two dragon-boat crews plus support-boat crews is nearly 50 people needing to be available when the weather and sea conditions are right. As very few people are fortunate enough to work for themselves, any attempt had to be scheduled for weekends. Summer wasn't considered because there is either a strong south-easterly wind, or it is blazing hot. Winter has north-westerly gales, huge ocean swells and it can be very cold and wet. We do get glorious Cape winter days, but spring and autumn were considered better times to plan for a crossing. Dragon-boats have no decking and with a full crew they have very little freeboard, so swell size must be small with a good space between swells and there needs to be minimal surface waves.
Having got the required permission from six different authorities, the October-November weekends of Spring 2011 were scheduled for potential crossing ... but the South-Easterly winds raged. Everything was then put on hold until Autumn 2012 (April-June). This at least gave us more time to train in the wooden boats which are quite different to paddle after being used to the lightweight fibreglass boats. Again, six weekends were set aside.
The 12th May dawned perfect, no wind and a flat calm sea - but, there was a sea fog so thick at times we could hardly see from one end of the boat to the other. We'd all assembled before 8.30, even Steven Bentley, the V&A Harbour Master was there ready to spend the day accompanying us - and the fog didn't lift. Steven kept contact with Port Control, only to hear that not only was the fog thick everywhere, but that a large fishing trawler had gone aground on Clifton beach and the whole harbour was abuzz with rescue operations. All other shipping was on hold and we certainly weren't allowed to proceed. In the end we were given permission at midday to creep out around the breakwater to the shelter of Granger Bay just so everyone could feel swell under the boats and get an idea of what being out at sea would be like. As we returned to the V&A Waterfront the fog finally began to lift but by then there was such a backlog of shipping, we had to give up for the day.

Then we were down to the last weekend of the six options and the swell forecasts were not good. We reluctantly agreed that Saturday was not an option and that Sunday was better, but still unlikely. Saturday dawned calm and balmy, but the swell was well over 2m. As the Safety Officer giving the final yes or no, was I being too cautious? Had I been a wet blanket? At 5pm a few of us went out in one of the safety boats and agreed that if conditions the following day were no worse it might be do-able.
Sunday 3rd June was perfect, the swell was half that predicted and there was no wind, it was all systems go. Then paddlers from the WCDBA team started cancelling and I started to wonder if we'd have enough to paddle a wooden boat 28km. Worse was to come, the skipper of the major safety boat called to say the keys had not been left for him as promised. Without this safety boat the whole trip would be off. We had over 40 people assembled after months of training and committing to setting 12 weekends aside for a potential crossing taking precedence over other engagements. The weather and the sea were finally perfect and now everything was about to collapse because we couldn't get the keys. Fortunately Trevor our skipper knew who else to phone and how to find the keys so he managed to rescue the situation and we ended up setting off only an hour later than planned. The Sisterhood-SA had a full crew of 18 paddlers a helm (sweep) and a drummer, whilst the WCDBA boat ended up with a sweep and 14 paddlers (3 guys + 11 women), one of whom drummed while leaving and entering the two harbours, returning to their seat to paddle once out in the open ocean. I drummed as we left Robben Island and very nearly fell overboard as I tried to scramble back past the drum, fortunately nobody seems to have had their camera trained on me as I made my undignified tumble onto the gunwale.
We agreed later that given a choice, 16 paddlers plus drummer and sweep would be optimum for power and control of these banana-shaped dragon-boats. For this initial crossing the experienced WCDBA paddlers were accompanying the largely novice crew of the Sisterhood-SA so we were holding back and not going for time.

As we left the V&A part of the harbour, a young humpback whale was lazily cruising around. What a special send off! On the crossing we came across large "rafts" of jackass penguins. They had clearly never seen dragons on the water before because they let us get really close before diving and resurfacing as soon as we'd passed to continue staring at us in amazement.
picture by Trevor Wilkins
The route across from the harbour to the island crosses three shipping lanes so we were lucky it was quiet, there was no shipping traffic on our way out and only two container boats on our return, one leaving and the other arriving. Once at the island we were allowed off the boats to stretch our legs and use their toilets but were not allowed out of the harbour precinct. The route back was as spectacular as the route out, from a World Heritage Site to one of the World's Seven Natural Wonders.
WCDBA squad feeling dwarfed ! - picture by Helga Frank
Robben (seal) Island is a small low-lying island of only 5 km˛, situated in Table Bay 11 kilometres north from Cape Town Harbour and 7k west of Blouberg. Giant rollers of the Atlantic Ocean continuously pound the western shore whilst the southern and eastern shores are swept by the icy Bengula current which flows up from Antarctica. In winter the island is battered by rain-bearing North-Westerly winds, in summer South-Easterly winds frequently rage at gale force.
Since the end of the 17th century, Robben Island has been an island of isolation, used most famously for political prisoners, but also from 1846-1931 as a leper colony and a hospital for those society preferred to forget, the mentally and chronically ill. It has even served as an animal quarantine station. During the Second World War the island was fortified to defend the Cape Sea Route and in post-war years, two prisons were established on the island, a criminal prison and a political prison. Nelson Mandela and many of South Africa's current politicians were inmates of the latter.
Both history and geography have combined to make access to and from the island difficult. Today, red tape continues to make access difficult. The Island is both a museum and a world heritage site. Only boats owned, managed or licensed by the island museum are allowed access. Permits are not given for landing on the island unless on an official island tour. The Western Cape Dragon Boat Association and The Sisterhood-SA are therefore very grateful to , the V&A Harbour Master, Cape Town Port Control, the Robben Island Museum, the Robben Island Marine Reserve authorities, the City of Cape Town and the Harbour police for permission to undertake the crossing.
A special big thank you to our support-boat skippers: Trevor Wilkins, Alon Kowen and Morgan Evans,
We'd love to do the crossing again, this time going for time, but the organisation (red tape) is complicated, weather at the Antarctic end of Africa does not follow set dates and we were warned that it could not become annual event.
So sadly, having a crossing as an International Dragon Boat event is not practical.

The latest weird and wacky news from around the world:
High Horse
Jenson Diplomat Tina is a three-year-old English Shire horse headed for the top. According to the Associated Press, Tina currently measures 81 inches to the withers, the top of the horse's shoulder, surpassing the current Guinness World Record and Tina is still growing! Still a teenager in horse years, Tina could reach 21 hands, or 84 inches at the withers! Currently, the tallest living horse on record is Belgian draft horse Radar, measuring 19 hands, 79.5 inches, and makes regular personal appearances across the country. Tina will be measured this month at a public event held at her owner's bed and breakfast in Niota, Tennessee. The refreshment proceeds from the event will go towards the Tina Carrot Fund… She eats close to 5 pounds of carrots a week! Let's hope Tina's newfound celebrity can fund her mammoth appetite!
Ninety-year-old Leonard Dickman was arrested Tuesday afternoon at a park in Mount Airy Forest and charged with indecent exposure. Fox 19 Cincinnati reports that Dickman was arrested while raising the leg of his shorts, exposing his private parts. Dickman pled guilty to public indecency on Wednesday, receiving six months of probation. Dickman is officially barred from all parks in Hamilton County.
Intentional or Ironic?
A man with a visible needle in his arm crashed his car into a drug treatment center in Clifton Heights yesterday afternoon. According to WLWT Cincinnati, the otherwise unidentified man was found unconscious from a drug overdose when police arrived. Once he regained consciousness, booster-boy was arrested and treated at a hospital for unnamed injuries.

Perfect stay
We appreciated being able to activate the heating, as it was very cosy when the temperature dropped in the evenings.
We felt very rested after our stay and have already booked for another two breaks next year.
About the Owner
About Mr Chris Pike
My husband and myself are born in bred in Sidmouth and are delighted our little girl will be growing up here too! The holiday apartment is situated above The Pea Green Boat, which is the small restaurant we own and run, and the views from the sun-room are what inspired us to advertise the flat as a holiday apartment. Whether it is raining, snowing, the sun is shining or a storm is brewing we never tire of the view from the apartment over the beach. We know how important holidays are to you and we hope the apartment has everything you need to make it enjoyable. However we are always in and out of the restaurant below and we will do our up most to ensure if you require something we will endeavour to provide it.

Oh what a find !
My husband and I were lucky enough to discover this wonderful apartment so perfectly located on the Esplanade and above the most wonderful littol restaurant. We breakfasted likes kings. Our puppy loved the beach and the pebbles, the smells, the sea, the friendliness of everyone. And oh how lovely is Sidmouth town, so many fantastic shops. We loved the apartment, it was perfect for our needs, even found Waitrose where we bought lovely food for devouring back at the apartment - only when we weren't eating the Pea Green Boat whose menu was wonderful combined with the friendly welcome - thank you we had the bestest time and will defo be coming back. Alan, Lucie and Keefie Mitchell.
Great Place to see in the New Year
We have stayed in Sidmouth many times over the last 20 years and can't imagine a place closer to the sea than this. Coming from as far from the sea as you can get I need to see the sea from wherever we stay, the views from the living room balcony are perfect for watching the comings and goings on the sea front.
The apartment is very comfortable and spacious, the kitchen was fine as we had no intention of doing any real cooking , after all we are on holiday.
Our hosts were very helpful and friendly, even going as far as returning clothes we had left behind, there is no doubt that we will be returning to Sidmouth and will be looking at this properties availability first ..... Thanks
We had booked the flat for a four-day Christmas stay. Although it has a wonderful view of the sea and is very spacious, it is unfortunately lacking in some areas. We were looking forward to doing our own catering, but the kitchen disappointed us greatly - only two hotplates out of four that worked (Xmas lunch for four a major disaster). Equipment in the kitchen could have been cleaner (fridge, crockery). No larger saucepans for those who wish to do their own cooking (had the hob worked). Impossible to regulate the heat of the water in the shower.
All in all, disappointing.
Perfect stay
I booked the apartment for a 3 night stay with my sister and mother. The location was perfect - directly opposite the sea front and a few minutes walk from the delightful town of Sidmouth. The flat is generously appointed, cheerful and very clean. The rooms are well proportioned and we particularly enjoyed sitting in the sun room leading from the sitting room.
We appreciated being able to activate the heating, as it was very cosy when the temperature dropped in the evenings.
We felt very rested after our stay and have already booked for another two breaks next year.
Great little property in great location
My wife, my two young children had a fantastic week staying in Sidmouth. Chris and Dawn made sure we had everything we needed and were very welcome. The apartment is very well located right on the seafront (my young daughter loved waking up and seeing the sea every morning whilst having breakfast). The apartment had plenty space for us, even with half a ton of baby equipment. We already knew the area well so knew there were plenty of things nearby to see and do, and being in the heart of Sidmouth made it easy to get to most things.
The restaurant downstairs was very relaxed and served great fresh local food, very handy for when you can't be bothered to cook for yourself.
All in all very pleased with the place, would definitely recommend.
Great Apartment
This apartment is in the best location in Sidmouth with excellent views of the esplanade and the sea.It is very well equipped having everything that you could need,there is also a bonus of a discount if you eat in the very good restaurant below

About Alysia R.
- National Criminal Record Check
- County/State Criminal Record Check
- Sex Offender Registry Search
- SSN Trace & Verification
Music has been my passion for the past 18 years. I started piano when I was 5 yrs old and the violin when I was 7 yrs old. I continued with lessons until I entered the Detroit High School for Performing Arts. During my sophomore year, I took additional classes at Wayne Sate University for music theory and in my senior year I took on my first piano students. I have been teaching piano, violin and music theory ever since. I have also choreographed and taught dance for many years as dancing has been with me since my first lessons at 4 yrs old. My focus is in ballet, tap and jazz. I am a graduate from Eastern Michigan University where I was actively a part of the music and dance program.
*** Lesson Details ***
I remember my piano teacher and I try to keep her balance of fun and learning. I am a very fun teacher, but I do expect my students to work, and learn. I introduce learning games and have contests. I also regularly quiz my students. For the younger students I like to inform the parents about what they should be practicing and of any theory exercises they may have for the week. Music is a rewarding and enjoyable passion that I try to pass on to my students.
*** Travel Equipment ***
Students should have their own instruments. I will provide the first books, but they will have to provide the books that come after and I will assist them with that.
*** Specialties ***
I've been doing ballet, tap and jazz for 16 years and i taught all of them for about two years. I teach classical piano and violin.

Aysia has been a fantastic teacher for my 13 year old daughter for violin. She has clear expectations and lessons. She is very competent with her skills and good at communicating her knowledge in an encouraging and constructive manner. She has been flexible with the schedule when necessary, due to life happening. I highly recommend her as a choice teacher.
· ·
Alysia is a great teacher I was a little nervous to use her because most of the reviews were written by parents whos kids are learning and I am an adult who just really wanted to learn the violin but after meeting Alysia she is not only patient but informative I think learning as an adult we or at least I tender to want to run before I can crawl like let's just learn this so I can get to the "good stuff." The way she explains stuff really lets you see there is method to the madness of trying to learn something so complicated? She is also easy to work with both in song selections (within abilities) and how she teaches. Learning the violin poster among a thousand other things is important and she has a way of correcting that doesn't make me feel stupid I know my husband has the nicest things to say. After a few lessons I am still on simple songs at only a few lessons and I still mess up but I have improved enough he doesn't run away or put in ear plugs anymore. Thank you Alysia!!!! I cant wait till I get a few more lessons in.... I am very excited!
· ·
My daughter seems to really like her lessons with Alysia. Alysia is patient and makes the lesson fun for my little 6 year old.

1 TACKLING PLAGIARISM AND ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT 'GETTING THE BALANCE RIGHT' ROB BEHRENS INDEPENDENT ADJUDICATOR FOR HIGHER EDUCATION email@example.com Woburn House Conference Centre, London November 19 2008 "And if I have often omitted to acknowledge the source of my arguments, it is for the double reason that in most cases I have forgotten it and that, since there are no 'authorities' in philosophy, references of this kind would promote a groundless trust in books and a false attitude of mind." Michael Oakeshott, Experience and its Modes, 1933.
2 Getting the Balance Right OIA Mandate and disposition Plagiarism Cases brought to OIA since 2005 Features of Not Justified Cases Features of Justified or Justified in Part Cases Emerging Issues for discussion
3 Mandate and disposition Under 2004 Higher Education Act, wide remit to examine 'acts and omissions of HEIs and the making of recommendations' [Rules,1.] But OIA engagement only when HEI procedures exhausted [HE Act 2004,Sch.2, 5.13, 3(2)(b)] ; and No remit to examine 'Academic Judgments', a term ultimately for interpretation by the Courts. In OIA view, it is not the same as 'any judgment made by an academic'. The fairness of procedures, facts, misrepresentation, the manner of communication, bias, an opinion expressed outside the area of competence, the way evidence is considered and maladministration in relation to these matters are all issues where we have advised universities that academic judgment is not involved. Decisions on whether HEI has abided by own procedures or acted reasonably 'in all the circumstances' [Rules, 7.4.4]. Disposition. Evidence-based review, using regulatory principles to be fair, proportionate and not slavishly bureaucratic in approach. Appreciation for difficult calls HEIs have to make.
4 OIA Plagiarism cases since 2005 2062 cases reviewed and closed under Scheme 68 Plagiarism cases (3.3 per cent of all cases) 4 cases Justified (5.8 per cent of Plagiarism cases) 51 cases Not Justified (75 per cent) 8 cases Justified in Part (11.76 per cent) 5 cases withdrawn or settled (7.3 per cent)
5 OIA Plagiarism cases since 2005
6 Not Justified Widespread complainant allegations of: Procedural irregularities [eg at variance from the usual, prescribed steps]; Unreasonable, harsh or disproportionate penalties (including expulsion, charging fees for re-submission of plagiarised coursework); Comprehensive information about plagiarism not available in handbooks, literature or on-line Appeal did not take into account either new information or exceptional circumstances
7 Justified or Partially Justified (1) CASE STUDY 1. Finding of Plagiarism in dissertation of student sponsored by NHS Trust. OIA recommended appointment of Appeal Committee with access to record of hearing. And review of procedures of Appeals committees Premature disclosure. HEI wrote to Trust announcing charge before hearing took place. No response when complainant objected. Burden of Proof. At Misconduct hearing student required to 'prove' innocence when the burden of proof was on the HEI. Failure of due process. In deciding whether to allow Appeal HEI did not consider record of the Misconduct hearing. Delay. 3 month delay in HEI investigation. Then Appeal request not responded to for 5 months (regs state 'normal' period of 28 days).
8 Justified or Partially Justified (2) CASE STUDY 2 M.Sc student given zero for coursework following Academic Misconduct Panel. Student appealed this was disproportionate given he had had no intention to gain improper advantage. Appeal Panel found no irregularity in the process, and student appealed to Academic Registrar. OIA found the decision and penalty not unreasonable. Financial compensation for poor handling and delay. But: Inappropriate Panel Membership. Overlap of staff members of Misconduct and Appeal Panels was contravention of natural justice. Inappropriate Behaviour of Appeal Panel Chair and members. HEI accepted Chair's behaviour could be perceived as 'dismissive, sarcastic and mocking'. Delay. No apology for delay in the reconstitution of Appeal Panel.
9 Justified or Partially Justified (3) CASE STUDY 3. HEI found student embellished answers when asked to record his 'illegible' script. Exam Board reduced mark to zero which lowered his degree classification, and recorded 'dishonesty' on his file. Appeal body recommended reconsideration of zero mark, degree award, and dishonesty marking notwithstanding the serious offence. Only the dishonesty marking was changed. OIA recommended reconsideration by Exam Board to effect a more proportionate penalty, financial compensation for irregularities and creation of relevant rules. Procedural Errors. Student's friend not allowed to speak at hearing. Lack of Notice. Student required to cross country to dictate script on the same day. No written notice, only a 45 minute warning to attend subsequent hearing. Delay. Process took 15 months to complete. Disproportionate Penalty in light of absence of rules for dictating scripts, no invigilation or treatment of occasion as being under exam conditions.
10 Emerging Issues for discussion Variety of definitions of Plagiarism. Variable practice within individual HEIs. Issue of 'intent'. Burden of Proof – 'on the balance of probabilities' (a low standard for a serious charge) or 'beyond reasonable doubt' ? Proportionality. HEIs very often justified to find that failure to reference properly is academic misconduct. But the student's intention and extent of the affected material should be taken into account when determining the penalty. Dealing with expectations: the international dimension, the availability of Internet sources. Resisting moral panic. "And if I have often omitted to acknowledge the source of my arguments, it is for the …reason that in most cases I have forgotten it …"

Naysayers? Naysayers to what- a bad idea? You bet. It's not that we "don't dream big", it's simply that this is a bad idea. It's a good article and I like reading the column- but my opinion is that it's a bad idea. A lot of people share this opinion.
I have an opinion of what we should do with the downtown area. My opinion is wonderful. Other people have opinions too, I doubt many are as good as mine but I'm sure it'd be a scale.
I'd love to hear other people's opinions on what to do with the downtown area. Actually, some might be better than mine! We've never had the opportunity to discuss this matter, as a city public to the public servants who represent us. The city dropped this proposal, somehow secured funding and got a few rubber stamps, and now what? Where's the money and what are we going to do with it? How many firms did we hire for design and price analysis- for what? This is all wasted money, to a bad idea. If there is money around for some project, get the public in now. Get a comprehensive input to make a unique project for our city.
Or- divert the money to get clean water for residents in our south-end.
I remember running into her once, and trying to catch her; obviously, she wouldn't come close enough to grab. After I ran into her, I started following her status on Facebook. I am soo glad that she finally made it home!
About the only good thing to come out of the C4C proposal was that it showed how little could be done without public support.
Ever since humans began walking upright, they have been searching for better ways to get from point A to point B. Lyft and Uber are the latest entries, and as always new ways are being resisted by those who are invested in the old ways. Mr. Castle is correct. Let the marketplace and the consumers decide.
Why put a stadium in the downtown area? We do not have a way to handle the traffic problems it would create, I25 is overcrowded as it is, and the downtown streets are impossible if anything is happening right now. There has to be a better choice that this, one that would have room for parking, while avoiding traffic jams. I know boosters want to draw people to downtown, but this isn't the way.
You forgot to mention one little thing about all of us naysayers: we are the ones who get stuck with the bill when all the best laid plans of those who "think big" collapse and fail.
Great article and a great idea.
Let's not give up. Please keep writing about this and don't listen to the nay sayers. They always think small.
Let's be like Palmer and Penrose and the others dreamers. It's in our original DNA.
How does Mr. Addy know the anonymous officer did not first "stand up to try to improve the department" from within? Perhaps he did and got nowhere, or, worse yet, was threatened if he did not drop it.
oh please you act like we havnt been here watching mr. corruption in action!!! his police force is questionable. and he himself should have been remove years ago....
I specifically asked this question 4 years ago and was told "NO". The culture of the campus atmosphere required the stadium to remain where it is. In addition I was told they were raising funds to make it larger on the AFA campus. It was also mentioned in conjunction with the new visitors center. We are not a sports centric town and we have the Broadmoor fighting us for convention space. Our strength is livability. Lets concentrate on several large downtown living projects. Designed as rent controlled living areas with access to bike-able schools, grocery stores and science museums.
When a candidate who gets significantly fewer votes is the "winner", and the candidate who gets the MOST votes is the "loser" there is only one conclusion any objective observer can make, and that is that the current President was elected by a MINORITY of voters.
The voters whose candidate got the MOST votes have not gone away, and are not now somehow magically "a minority". This particular twig of legitimacy to which Trump supporters cling is being greatly strained under the weight of their own denial.
Unfortunately, we ALL now labor under the fact that the ONLY office that represents ALL Americans is NOT elected by a democratic vote of all Americans. Having happened twice in this young century, I'm of the notion that combined with voter suppression efforts and successful gerrymandering, our democracy is diminishing to the point of extinction. The insanity is that nobody is doing anything to fix this bizarre condition, and the minority, like Mr. Marshall here, continues to smugly gloat about it.
It's a decent idea, full of typical wide-eyed wonderment. These great ideas, and mine, require buckets of "free" money from taxpayers elsewhere. That's the real game in America, getting someone ELSE to pay for what you want; our Federal budget has money and tax loopholes for every vested interest on earth.
Perhaps a better idea is to rearrange the access roads around Falcon Stadium to isolate and keep the stadium outside of the security perimeter of the USAFA so it may be accessed without the security hassles. Throw in an off ramp from the Interquest Parkway exit of I-25 that can be open for events to gain better access on game days. Put a roof over Falcon Stadium and call it a done deal. But that won't happen if the Air Force has to pony up the money for any of this, see comment above about getting free money.
In a state that rejected hosting an Olympic Games, ultra conservative and ultra cheap Colorado Springs isn't about to 'spring' for a damned thing, especially with TABOR still on the books.
If private money wants to do all these things, fine, have at it, but when developers and pols talk about 'free enterprise' what they mean is free money from taxpayers suckered yet again.
Ralph, I am not a supporter of the downtown stadium, for a number of reasons. Here is a link to a comprehensive article from the Fresno Bee, outlining the difficulties that Chuchancy Park; THEIR tax payer supported downtown stadium; has faced since it's inception. I think this is a useful case study with an eerily similiar situation to what the powers-that-be want to do here...
Wow..."It would need key leaders to buy in, embrace the potential and seize the opportunity."
We'd also need key leaders to steal about $1 billion from taxpayers....come to think if it, it may just be possible.
Thank you Bob.
I agree, you Trumpers got played like his show The Apprentice and now our country will pay for this major fubar! God help America!
sorry bub, the promises the meow grabber lying sac made to you will not happen. all he will accomplish is to enrich himself, his family and his rich buddies... not you hillbillies that fell for his lies... sorry but you gullible bumpkins were taken by a big city billionaire. you messed up... you trusted him... bwaaahahahahaha!!
Lol...the electoral college doesn't represent majority opinion. Trump won the shitty states because liberals are fleeing the confederacy and rural states to be in decent places like CA, WA, CO, and OR. This is a trend. Also, do you not know any queer people? If you did, you wouldn't be saying "get over it." I beg you, please leave the west side. Why do you hate academics so much?
"Those who hate him are lost souls." Nope, we just care about equality, knowledge, and the environment. You don't care as long as there's a hideous white man in charge.
"I hate Hillary and Obama because they know things that I don't and they speak like professors! I want my president to represent me as a racist, homophobic, knowledgeless fool!"
Ive enjoyed many of your columns that dredged up the nostalgia and my "old geezer" memories of growing up in the Springs more than 60 years ago. My, how things have changed................
Great post, Bob. I recently wrote about the same topic after reading Richard Louv's "Last Child in the Woods".

I really need someone to tell me that I'm doing this wrong. Because what I found is that I need to install a NuGet package in order to use a C# language feature .
The Discovery
I was doing some experimentation last night, and I decided that I would try to use value tuples, a new feature in C# 7. (Long story short, I was trying to implement a Fibonacci sequence in C# using a more declarative approach (similar to what I did in F# last year ).)
So I fired up Visual Studio 2017, got a working implementation going with TDD (I'll write about that in a future article), then I went to refactor it to use a value tuple.
As a first step, I created a local variable:
That's when I ran into a problem. Red squigglies? I double checked the docs online to make sure I was using the right syntax. Yep.
Here's the build error:
Great. Now what? "System.ValueTuple" doesn't show up in my available assembly references (and yet, somehow the compiler knows about it).
Looking at the Microsoft docs ( https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/articles/csharp/whats-new/csharp-7#tuples ), I came across this note:
But I'm not using a Preview. I have the release version of Visual Studio 2017 (Version 15.1 (26403.7) Release). Surely I don't need a NuGet package.
But the only way I could get this to work was to install the NuGet package:
After installing this, my tuple started working fine:
The Environment
- Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise (Version 15.1 Release)
- .NET Version 4.6.2
- Windows 10 (who knows what actual version, not the Creator's Update)
Please, Please, Please
I really need someone to tell me that I'm doing this wrong. Do I really need to install a NuGet package to use a language feature?
If I need to install a package, is it really a language feature? Or is it just another library.
[Update: The package is not needed with .NET 4.7. But as of today, .NET 4.7 (and the ability to target it in Visual Studio) is *only* available for Windows 10 Creator's Update.]
I am not connected to the internet 24 hours a day. And when I am, I don't always have a high speed connection. I already find myself going back to Visual Studio 2015 periodically just because I have local help installed there.
Visual Studio has been a really awesome development environment. But I find it harder and harder to develop with Visual Studio 2017.
So, please tell me that I'm doing something wrong. I want my peace of mind back.

Beautiful house in a beautiful part of the world. B and Nick were very accommodating and the house was a great place to stay. Highly recommended.Juan2016-06-27T00:00:00Z
We had a lovely welcome at the farm. It was a beautiful house with plenty of room for all of us. It was lovely having our own living space and the pool table was an added bonus! Would highly recommend and we'd definitely to return! Thanks for a great trip!Leanne2016-07-11T00:00:00Z
What a lovely place to stay and relax. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and the hospitality shown.Anne2016-07-29T00:00:00Z
House is so so so great! B is very nice and easygoing~ very lovely rooms and beautiful garden!Yuqi2016-05-30T00:00:00Z
An absolutely lovely experience. Made us feel very welcome and comfortable. The house itself was gorgeous and extremely cosy. B was very helpful and got us a reservation at a nearby pub with great food. Overall a very special stay, wish it could have been for longer. Thank you!Britain2017-02-05T00:00:00Z
We loved the tranquility and beauty of the home and its surrounding countryside, but most of all loved our hosts and their most adorable companions - the dogs Bobby and Bertie and their gorgeous pig Bella.Steve2016-08-20T00:00:00Z
Nick and B's place is simply beautiful, the photos do not do it justice. We had an amazing relaxing stay and found that we didn't want to leave! So much fun having the dogs around and making use of the back garden and bbq. Nick and B were lovely hosts who were easy to talk to, super helpful, and warm. Would definitely stay again.Genevieve2016-08-30T00:00:00Z
This place is as pretty as a picture, but has real heart. B and Nick and their lovely home deep in the countryside invite you to come right in and be their guest. We felt immediately at ease and loved that we had our own entrance, upstairs and down stairs, own sitting room and 2 spacious bedrooms and good bathrooms. With deep colours, wall hangings, softest cotton sheets, country home chic, plenty to read and look at, huge beds that we struggled to get out of and plenty of views across the fields and beyond, we sunk into the comfort of it all. Everything is spic and span but homely too. Having 11 year and 14 year old sons, we amused ourselves with croquet (with active participation from Bella the pig), trampolining, playing pool, a BBQ in the garden, baby chicks, a wander down to the stream and the woods, and good chat from our lovely hosts. B and Nick are discreet but always on hand for anything you need and gave great advice and directions for local pub visiting. It is not far from Exeter, Topsham, and the coast - Exmouth etc. However, I particularly enjoyed sitting on the bench in the garden, amongst the beautiful plants, pots and flowers so lovingly tended by someone else! Although this is not "B and B", this was no bother. We were able to have our own breakfast as there are plates, cutlery, a fridge and a microwave plus they provided everything we needed to have the BBQ the night before (including wine glasses and cork screw!) It was just lovely.Charlotte2016-06-06T00:00:00Z

After a bit of bad planning on my part we ended up finding Cariad's place to stay at after a wedding in the area. She and her sons were really helpful in getting us in early (although we ended up not being early) and accommodating our last minute needs and changes of plan. Thank you, and sorry we left before we actually got to meet. Joe & NicoleJoe2016-09-04T00:00:00Z
We really had a great time at Cariad's place and she was welcoming and friendly. We loved the privacy and the room is cosy.Justine2016-11-29T00:00:00Z
My children and I had a great stay at Cariad's, we didn't meet but she was lovely every time we had contact and made it easy to access the property. The flat was clean, very quiet and comfortable. A very practical place in between Dartmoor and Exmoor. We also had a great meal at the bake house in the next village upon her recom.Bruce2016-08-28T00:00:00Z

Neat little bungalow which suited us perfectly. Charlotte was very friendly and approachable Good knowing Charlotte was nearby if we needed anything, but we had no issues or problems.linda2015-07-28T00:00:00Z
Charlotte was a fantastic host. Very welcoming and eager to ensure the stay was as comfortable as could be. We were able to collect the keys at a time that suited us, the cottage had basics such as milk, eggs, tea and coffee which was a lovely and thoughtful touch etc I would recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in the area. Thank you Charlotte!Tom2016-05-03T00:00:00Z
We arrived VERY late and Charlotte was great organising for us to get in without a problem. The bungalow was perfect - lots of space and a beautiful setting. We were in the area for a wedding and Charlotte even lent us her iron and ironing board - thank you!!!Nikki2016-07-04T00:00:00Z
Everything was fine. The cottage was very well suited for our needs (traveling with baby) and charlotte was also very friendly.Stefan2015-08-15T00:00:00Z
Charlotte was very welcoming on arrival ( we were out a lot so didn't see her after that) and the cottage was ideal for our short visit. The sitting room and bedroom were both bright and sunny and the kitchen and bathroom both small but perfectly adequate. It is well situated for visiting all areas of Devon and also has an excellent local pub serving good food about a mile away.Rosie2016-05-31T00:00:00Z
Charlotte was a perfect host, on hand to provide advice and sort out any queries. House is comfortable, bright and perfect for relaxing with quiet environment and pretty garden. Big comfy bed and WiFi was a big bonus! Would definitely visit again!Michael2016-06-22T00:00:00Z
Charlotte is great, attentive when you arrive and discretely caring whilst you stay. The cottage is a delight; spotlessly clean, it's comfortable, it's cosy when it's cold bright and light in the sun, and it's fun. It was a brilliant base for us and a great base for north and South CoastAlly2016-03-17T00:00:00Z
We have stayed here before, Charlotte very helpful and flexible. Property is lovely and ideal location for our needs.Tom2016-07-29T00:00:00Z

Lara's place is fantastic! Me and my mum stayed here whilst visiting family. And we felt very lucky to be staying here! Beautiful clean rooms. She provided full English breakfast, drinks and tea and coffee. I'd stay again for sure. Lovely host, and lovely accommodation.Kell2017-02-12T00:00:00Z

Great place fully equipped kitchen including washing machine/dryer and dishwasher fast enough for me free Wi-Fi and spotlessly clean. Really good.sean2017-01-14T00:00:00Z

Thank you to Eleanor and family for the warm welcome we received and thoughful touches to make our stay relaxing and comfortable. We had a great time!Cathy2016-06-03T00:00:00Z
What a lovely flat and a warm welcome from Eleanor! We came for one day to attend a party nearby. Sadly, we had to leave early in the morning, so didn't really get a chance to enjoy the beautiful Devon countryside. It's about as peaceful a location as you can imagine and yet very close to the city of Exeter. We recommend taking longer to relax and explore.Andrew2016-05-23T00:00:00Z
A really lovely place to stay. Thoroughly recommended !Nina2016-06-29T00:00:00Z
We had a brilliant stay at this well equip little flat in the country side, the host ensure that the flat is full of all the essentials someone may need when staying away from home, it's extremely cosy and the bed and shower were both amazing! We would highly recommend anyone to stay and wish we could have stayed longer in this peaceful, idyllic home!Nelson2016-07-21T00:00:00Z
Beautiful location and a lovely flat. We had a nice country walk the first day around Ashcroft Forest and Eleanor let us take one of her dogs with us. Which for me was such a treat as I love animals and have been pestering my husband for a dog for ages! The flat it's self had all the amenities required for a comfortable stay, and the decking has a beautiful view which is great to look over whilst having your breakfast. Eleanor was very welcoming and helpful. She was always around if you needed her. We also visited Exeter which was only 25min drive from the airbnb. The country roads are one car track near the property so make sure you drive slowly there otherwise smooth sailing to get to. We would definitely stay again and will be recommending to our family and friends. Thank you for the wonderful couple of days in the country, Jen and GaryJen2016-07-08T00:00:00Z
Thank you for our wonderful short break. The photos, despite being accurate, really don't do the place justice. It's such a pretty little hideaway and the balcony view is really special. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet and our daughter enjoyed the novelty of a TV (we don't have one), the fruit provided and the friendly cat! The king size bed was super comfy and it felt like everything was immaculately clean. A real bargain and the perfect location for our exploration of Exmouth and Exeter. I just wish I hadn't forgotten to try one of the wonderful looking eggs!Debra2016-08-30T00:00:00Z
We stayed for one evening at this lovely rural retreat. Beautiful surroundings. The apartment had a relaxed & laid back feel you could really make yourself at home; perfect size for 2 people! Eleanor, family & doggies gave us a warm welcome & introduction to Westwood. Thank you for a lovely stay!! We'll be back again!Holly2016-05-01T00:00:00Z
We received a very warm welcome at Westwood. Eleanor is a splendid host and the garden flat is absolutely charming and very well appointed to high standard. We felt very much at home from the minute we arrived. It was just perfect for our holiday to the west country and we both feel in love with this property. We would love to return to this most peaceful corner of Devon and Westwood Garden flat. Bela & Cecil.Cecil2016-07-18T00:00:00Z

Great cottage, clean, spacious and in a lovely location. We will return for another stay soon hopefully.Steve2017-03-19T00:00:00Z
This cottage is beautiful and Heather is so welcoming. The cottage is very well equiped with many items that I took with me because they are not usually provided. The location is fabulous and there is so much to do. We are planning our next trip. You will not be disappointed.Joanna2017-03-09T00:00:00Z
What a lovely house. Well decorated, comfortable beds and enclosed garden for the dog. It was great to be in the countryside and away from the hustle and bustle of it all.Brice2017-02-24T00:00:00Z
Our stay at Martinsfield farm was lovely. The cottage was beautifully decorated and the hosts have put a lot of thought into it. Our toddler loved listening to the farm sounds and looking in the fields at the new lambs! Would definitely recommend this place to friends.Rachel 2017-03-12T00:00:00Z
A cosy cottage set on a National Trust farm. All facilities are of a high standard, everything is very clean and the decor is lovely. Parking is easy as is access to Exeter and main roads. We will definitely come back!Emma2017-01-29T00:00:00Z

A clean, simple, neat, cosy little cottage. Heather provided good instructions and prompt feedback. We really enjoyed staying hereJon2016-11-26T00:00:00Z
Martinsfield Farm Cottage was the perfect home from home that we needed. Very quiet with only our hosts, sheep, bottle fed lambs and cows as neighbours. The cottage was lovely, clean and well had a well appointed kitchen for cooking in the evening. The beds were very comfortable and the views were outstanding. Our little dog loved the walks in the area and although tucked away we weren't too far from the centre of the town for the shops for essentials. If a quiet place to stay is what you are looking for, this is the perfect placepaul2017-01-03T00:00:00Z

spotless room in a nice house and location. Jane was lovely, very welcoming and helpful.Jacqueline2016-08-02T00:00:00Z
Jane and Jim are nicest hosts ever! Very thoughtful and care about me when I stayed there. Their hospitality make me feel just like I'm home :)Linh2016-09-21T00:00:00Z
Jane was very prompt in her response to my last minute request, and helpful on my arrival when I was close by but unable to locate her home. Jane welcomed warmly, then orientated me to my room and facilities including hot drinks and breakfast of a choice of single serve boxed cereals, fresh fruit, toast and tea. The room was just as described, clean cosy & comfortable. I left early the next morning, meeting Jane's equally as welcoming husband, and made the short journey back to the motorway to carry on my journey.Vanessa2016-10-24T00:00:00Z
Thank you Jane for your hospitality, you were a perfect host. My stay was very comfortable, easy and completely fuss-free. It made my day and night much simpler and far more restful as a result. Much appreciated. Excellent parking off street on Jane's drive, and when I was pulling up slowly to double check I had the right house in the dark she was quickly out of the house to greet me and see me and my car safely into a car space. Simple toiletries were provided in my room and a bottle of water and glass on the nightstand made me feel considered and cared for! It was a welcome feeling, and along with extra pillows and blankets under the bed made for a cosy, happy stay. House was spotless and the village was charming and quiet. There was a separate sitting room space for use by guests although I didn't get to use this, it was a lovely gesture, and wonderful value to be included in the price of the stay. Very satisfied first time Airbnb'er!Clare2017-03-24T00:00:00Z
Very warm welcome. Jane and her husband are so nice, difficult not to feel welcome.jean-claude2016-09-11T00:00:00Z
Jane and Jim are very friendly and they gave me a very warm welcome when I arrived the house. I had a perfect light breakfast with choices of breads, cereals, fruits and yogurt. And, they are even willing to drive me to the nearest bus stop to show me the way to the city center. Just feel like living with your family when staying with them! This is a perfect choice for someone looking for a b&b to stay during weekend with a reasonable price.Linh2016-09-18T00:00:00Z

We stayed one night with Jo and it was fantastic. Jo (and Mollie) are extremely welcoming and the room is lovely. We stayed for a wedding and Jo did everything to make our stay so easy. I would recommend here cosy house to anyone. Thank you for everything.Neil2017-03-26T00:00:00Z
Jo (and Molly) are the perfect hosts. I only stayed one night as I was working in the area, but I'm looking forward to working in cullompton again so I can stay another night! Everything is as described and a lovely room! Thanks jo!Kevin2017-03-02T00:00:00Z
Very friendly and welcoming. Clean and pretty room. Very cuddly dog. What more could you want? Would stay again :)Amy2016-08-27T00:00:00Z
Jo's place is lovely, room is bright and comfortable - it's got all you need for a home away from home. Jo and Molly are lovely, really make you feel welcome, especially for a solo traveller! Couldn't rate them highly enough. Thanks for a great stay.Katherine2017-03-17T00:00:00Z
We had a lovely stay at Jo's place. She's very outgoing and her place was great, bed cozy and spotless clean.Stephanie2016-08-05T00:00:00Z
This was by far the nicest airbnb that we've stayed in. Jo was so lovely and the house and room was so spotlessly clean it was like walking into a top end hotel. The only downside was that we couldn't spend out entire trip here. Tempted to plan another holiday just so we can stay with Jo again.Rhys2016-06-11T00:00:00Z
We really enjoyed our stay at Jo's place. She was very friendly, offered us tea with cake and immediately made us feel at home. The room we stayed in was excellent, but we were also invited to use her kitchen or sit in the garden. We did indeed cook our own meal on one of the two nights we stayed at Jo's. And we should of course mention her dog Molly that eats Jo's mail, barks at the television and is really super cute. Check out the picture of Molly that Jo added to her AirBnB profile. From the AirBnB places we stayed in during our holiday, we liked this one the best.Jan Paul2016-09-10T00:00:00Z

Another great stay. Thank you, Jenni. I will be back.Sarah2016-10-26T00:00:00Z
Such a beautiful little house ! Even if we stay only one quick night, we enjoyed the place. Jenny is very kind and the room is spacious, clean, well decorated and confortable ! A big up for the impressive breakfast *-*Magali2016-09-26T00:00:00Z
Booked on the day due to a last minute changed of plans, unfortunately Jenni was away but she was very quick to message and explain the arrival process while she was away! A lovely secluded property with everything we needed, little things such as the little chocolates on the bed and the homemade flapjack really made the property. Was such a shame we arrived so late as the garden was incredible and had the weather been better would of been nice to sit in on a summers evening.Callum2016-07-29T00:00:00Z
Our host made us so welcome as soon as we arrived. It really was such a pleasure to stay at Thorndon House's Garden Room. The local neighbourhood was fine. As the Airbnb description mentioned a bus to Exeter can be caught almost outside Thorndon House and driving to Exeter takes about fifteen minutes. The description on the Airbnb was very accurate. We would not hesitate in recommending the Garden Room to others.Peter2015-10-14T00:00:00Z
Jenni was exceptionally helpful and communicative. The accommodation was very clean, comfortable and peaceful. The location is beautiful and use of the lovely garden was a bonus. Access to Exeter is easy by car. Highly recommended place to stay.lorraine2016-06-28T00:00:00Z
The room was perfect for a short stay. It was clean, comfortable and we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area. Jenny was really welcoming and helpful.Bethan2016-02-21T00:00:00Z
Perfect for our one night stop over on the way to Cornwall, although would have loved to stay longer. Clean and cosy with everything you need. Continental breakfast and biscuits and scones left in the room. Wonderful setting. Very well priced. Would definitely stay again.Linda2016-08-23T00:00:00Z
I had a great stay. Clean, light, spacious room. Very comfy bed, warm shower and lovely food in the fridge. Good views from the garden and nearby at fantastic National Trust property to visit, Killerton House.jerry2015-08-12T00:00:00Z

Mark and Lizzie were wonderfully welcoming when we arrived exhausted after an eleven hour drive. We slept really well in the excellent bed and had the amazing breakfast which other reviewers have commented on. We are looking for excuses to go back. And I hope we'll find many.Margaret2015-08-23T00:00:00Z
We had such a lovely stay with Mark and Lizzie in their beautiful property. They were both so hospitable and put so much thought into greating and hosting us during our one night stay. Breakfast was incredible and served to us in our room with fresh fruit and pancakes and the best scrambled eggs I've ever had! We were even treated to cake and a beer in the evening! The room itself is peaceful bright clean and private with a bathroom just next door, perfect for a couple to relax. I would most certainly recommend staying with Mark and Lizzie and wish you both all the best in the future!Abigail2015-06-21T00:00:00Z
I stayed in this home for 2 days together with my friend Robin. It was our first time in a BNB and we were really pleasantly surprised! Mark will go above and beyond for his guests. Without even asking Mark suggested to pick us up from the airport. He is very friendly and knows exactly what to do to make you feel comfortable. Every morning there was this amazing(!) breakfast to start up our day. This experience was better than any 5 star hotel I ever went. Would love to come back here some time!Ryan2016-05-26T00:00:00Z
FANTASTIC! Great welcome, beautiful house run by Lizzie and Mark (And Mabel and Buttons)- could not fault this place in any way. Cosy pub up the road too and great for people who love the outdoors. The food was outstanding, as was the company. Thank you - I will definitely be back. Also- super comfortable bedroom with everything you could need.kate2015-04-26T00:00:00Z
As I was travelling alone I was delighted to find Mark such a friendly and welcoming host for whom nothing was too much trouble. The room was very comfortable and the whole house was elegantly decorated to a high standard. The garden was charming and I was entertained there with tea and cake whilst watching the antics of the gorgeous Buttons and Mabel the dogs. The breakfast was a picture to behold and tasty too. I couldn't have wished for a better stay or a more fun and caring host. Thankyou Mark.Fran2016-05-28T00:00:00Z
This was my favourite Air BnB to date. Mark and Lizzie are lovely. I felt so well looked-after. Such a lovely room, and when all the renovations are done, it will be perfect. This place is perfect for business or pleasure. Also, the Red Lion pub, which is in close walking distance, is a wonderful place for a feed and a beer. I can't convey how much I enjoyed this stay. Cheers guysHarry2016-02-04T00:00:00Z
Mark was a friendly host, and made my girlfriend and I feel very welcome. Our room was enormous and really tastefully decorated and furnished. Breakfast was delicious. In terms of value for money this B&B is worth the stay, but even more of a reason to stay is to enjoy Mark's hospitality.Nick2016-07-11T00:00:00Z
We had the best airbnb stay! Mark and Lizzie are excellent hosts. The house charming and well appointed. We were well looked after, the breakfast very tasty and well presented. Plenty of humour exchanged and laughter shared. We will look to go back when we can.Pamela2015-09-14T00:00:00Z

The Old Stable is in a gorgeous peaceful setting. Richard and Joan's house is lovely and we felt at home very quickly. The breakfast treats were very much appreciated. The highlight for us was the hot tub set next to the River Culm in the lovely garden amongst the daffodils...a beautiful garden at this time of year. We hope to return again for more relaxation.Katie2017-03-27T00:00:00Z
Richard & Joan's home is a beautiful converted stable building, with every comfort included. It is exceptionally well-equipped and furnished. We had all the essential breakfast items left for us and all the household items such as soap, washing up liquid etc available. The garden is beautiful - by a stream. There's a hot tub down there too. Although situated in a very quiet rural area, the village is not far from Exeter - best of both worlds. Richard & Joan are excellent hosts who are very helpful and attentive.Helen2017-02-15T00:00:00Z
Brilliant AirBnB for a weekend away in Exeter. Great communication from the owners, felt very homely and was a very high spec of accommodation. Could not recommend more highly, would happily go back.Graham2017-02-26T00:00:00Z
Lovely place to stay, all was very smooth. Recommended! :)Chris2017-02-05T00:00:00Z
I cannot fault the stay in any way at all - it truly was perfect. From Richard and Joan's communication and personal welcoming to everything about the Old Stable. Richard and Joan even gave us a bottle of champagne as it was New Year's - we really were made to feel welcome. Can't wait to go back!Rhiannon2017-01-02T00:00:00Z
Very relaxing stay, enjoyed the peacefulness of the area. Great location and not far from the coast. Loved the cosy nights in with a movie on the project and the wood burning fire going. Very enjoyable stay with everything you need and great hosts I wish we stayed another night..Samantha2017-04-02T00:00:00Z

Tamsyn made us feel very welcome right from the start. She showed us to the amazing self contained garden room, answered our questions about the area and left us to it. A perfect balance of help and privacy with the knowledge that she was on hand if we had any further questions. The place is located near to Exeter in beautiful countryside and has everything you need. It is newly renovated with en suite and kitchen to a very high standard. Thanks also to Tasmyn for the very thoughtful touches for our stay. We recommend this place 5 stars from 5 IanIan2016-09-13T00:00:00Z

A home from home, a perfect winter getaway for Ania and I. Both Roger and Annie made us feel so welcome and should be proud of an amazing space they have created. The pictures did not do justice to seeing the cottage when we arrived. Everything you need to feel relaxed and comfortable. The wood burning stove was welcome on a chilly January evening and the honesty box for more logs genius. We were left alone to enjoy our time, but only had to ask if we needed anything which we did not as it had already been catered for. Would absolutely have no hesitation in staying again or recommending to others. Thank You Annie & Roger. Lee & Ania.Lee2015-01-26T00:00:00Z
Great cosy cottage. Excellent kitchen for self catering. Lovely fire.Adam2017-02-20T00:00:00Z
Annie greeted us upon arrival and took us around the beautiful and well designed property, of which we had sole use. She explained how to light the fire and pointed out things we might need. The whole place was perfect to and we had absolutely everything we might need for our who night stay. Bed was like sinking into a hug. Good firm matress with feather topper to sink into. Bathroom was beautiful and well stocked with quality pampering toiletries. Annie' kitchen was well stocked with implements and had teas and real coffee for us to use, along with buiscuits and cakes. The whole place made the best of a converted dairy, with a modern twist for added comfort. We can't wait to revisit and will most certainly be requesting to stay here again.Karin2014-10-19T00:00:00Z
Beautiful setting and lovely accommodation. Very peaceful and Annie is the perfect host. Looking forward to staying here againDenise2016-07-06T00:00:00Z
My boyfriend and I are new to Airbnb and we were very pleased we chose to use it this time. We had a lovely three nights at Crosslands Diary - just the break we needed from our busy London lives and wished we could have stayed longer. The cottage is bigger than we expected but still maintained a cosy feel which was just what we were after. The bed was gloriously comfortable and the shower was wonderful - two very important comforts when staying away from home I feel! Loved the log burner too! Would definitely recommend and would love to come back next year for a longer stay. Thank you Annie for making our first Airbnb experience a winner!Harriet2014-11-19T00:00:00Z
We had a lovely stray at the Dairy. The space is lovely, very nicely finished and all very well equipped. The open plan Kitchen/dining/living space upstairs works really well and we enjoyed evenings snuggled up by the wood burner. Lots of things to do near by, but you do need a car to get around.Ruairi2017-01-02T00:00:00Z

Anthony and the family were fantastic hosts, who showed us the facilities and then allowed us space to use the garden, pool and hot tub in private! That, along with the spectacular rural views, made us feel like we were staying with no one around for miles! The room was large and very comfortable, with a small gym underneath, which all seemed like our private space! Fantastic stay, and would highly recommend!Alex2016-06-04T00:00:00Z
I loved this place. You are in your own annex next to the house, very private, and nearly self-contained in that there was no kitchen but was a small fridge, kettle and toaster. Lots of snacks and breakfast food laid on. The icing on the cake for me was the hottub just beside the lawn, so 10 seconds walk away, loved it, stayed in there late looking into the distance and at the stars. Highly recommended, and SatNav takes you right to it.Adrian2016-07-11T00:00:00Z
Stayed for one night & couldn't have asked for more! Lovely secluded location with very friendly hosts. We used the hot tub in the evening & could've used the pool too if we had time! Could see the stars it was beautiful! Also a delicious full English breakfast was delivered to our door- perfect!!! Highly recommend!!Emily2016-08-30T00:00:00Z
We had a very warm welcome and fully enjoyed our 1 night stay at Welth Cottage! The room was simply superb and had everything we needed - kettle, tea & coffees and biscuits, a very comfy bed, tele with a huge range of DVDs, a clean en-suit... Breakfast was great! A selection of cereals, bread and jam/honey as well as fruit, yoghurt and pastries. As we were very lucky with the weather we got to eat al fresco and our daughter had a little splash in the pool in company of Tony and Sarah's lovely daughter. We can highly recommend this Airbnb and will definitely be coming back!Anika2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

Beautiful house with everything you could possible want from a family holiday home. Tracy and her family were the perfect hosts. We will definitely be returning.Lynsey2017-04-03T00:00:00Z
Tracy was and amazing host and given we were her first guests, I could see she worked tirelessly to get the barn ready for us. The barn comfortably fits 10+ people with plenty of space to not feel cramped, and there was plenty to keep all ages occupied. Small things made it really special such as fluffy bathrobes and toiletries (which is not commonplace on a holiday rental) made it extra special. Thanks Tracy, we'll be back.

Limited to 5 prints, each signed and numbered by artist A K NicholasVaguely erotic, a single figure glides easily through an expanse of gemlike water ranging from sapphire to aquamarine. Deep hues and intense tones create intricate patterns that partly obscure the nude swimmer. Glints of pink accent the highlights on the ripples. The body radiates warm energy as she slips in and out through the surface of the cool water. I love working with water and other liquids. The ungovernable nature of liquid provides a balance between order and chaos; I can predict the general nature of the image, but the exact details are left to chance. A constantly moving mirror and lens, the liquid provides intricate visual surprises.I call this technique a false-color image, restrained to a particular subset of colors. The method is inspired by oil painting, where the artist chooses a palette and also pays homage to the classic technique of hand-colored photography. Although the colors are conceivable, they deviate from reality. The process shares other aspects with painting, being applied selectively to areas on the image. Painters will often tint shadows and highlights differently in order to give a greater illusion of depth as well as evoking an emotional response. Additionally a warm-toned subject appears to protrude from cool-toned surroundings.Orders over $1,000 will be double packaged with a ridged outer tube (PVC pipe) for shipment.Selected as Art Finder Art of the Day.

Gene editing patent ruling sways fortune of biotech hopefuls
Share via Email
NEW YORK — In a highly anticipated decision that could sway the fortunes of a handful of biotechnology companies, the federal patent office has turned back a challenge to patents covering a widely used method for editing genes.
The office's board of appeals ruled Wednesday that the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard can keep patents it had been awarded for a technique called CRISPR that lets scientists alter DNA within cells.
It turned back a challenge from the University of California, Berkeley. The school had filed its own CRISPR patent application in 2012 a few months before the Broad institute, but the Broad got its patents approved while Berkeley's application is pending.
The financial implications are huge, since CRISPR may lead to many lucrative products in medicine, agriculture and elsewhere. One company that has licensed Broad's technology, Editas Medicine Inc., saw its shares jump by 29
In a statement, Berkeley said it respects the ruling, but that it will "carefully consider all options for possible next steps in this legal process, including the possibility of an appeal."
The patent dispute involved work led by Feng Zhang of the Broad Institute and Jennifer Doudna and Emmanuelle Charpentier at Berkeley.
Lawyers for Berkeley maintained that Doudna and Charpentier were the first to invent CRISPR for use in all settings. They said the work at Broad, which showed how to use CRISPR in the relatively complex cells of plants, people and other animals, wasn't enough of an advance beyond the Berkeley work to warrant its own patents.
The appeals board, however, concluded that the Broad work was not simply an obvious extension of the research described in the Berkeley patent application. So Broad's patent coverage is different from Berkeley's, the board ruled.
Jacob Sherkow, who specializes in patent law for matters of biological sciences at the New York Law School, said he thinks it would be worthwhile for Berkeley to take the matter to a federal appeals court.
Splitting the bill the fair way: Why the higher earner should pay more
It comes down to math: The first step is to add your net incomes together. Then divide each individual income by this figure and multiply by 100.
Stop with the excuses: The first step to solving your money problems is facing them head on
So many people see the math of money as overwhelming. It isn't. It's Grade 5 math. Stop using this excuse!

I am lucky enough to live right next to a variety of fields, some farmed, others used for wild flowers and one or two flood plains. These seed pods and flora were all found close by, I hope that in this design you see the same quiet beauty that I did on my wanderings.
This is a small pot, it is designed for being used at the breakfast table or to sit on a kitchen worktop, so it is neat in size. There is a small niche in the lid, this is to allow a tea spoon to rest inside.
Dishwasher safe, though it must be pointed out that the gold dots of lustre may lose their shine over time as this form of washing is abrasive to them.
Our china is packaged in attractive branded gift boxes automatically. This enables it to be sent very safely, whilst at the same time ensures that wrapping as a gift is very simple at home. We also include care cards for our china within the gift boxes. (If you order more than one piece we may use a larger box to package two or more items. Should this be inconvenient please state at the checkout and we shall separate each piece into different boxes.)
