Great Location
The bed was terrible, one of the worst I have slept in, that is why we only stayed 1 night. The room had a live spider & web in it, which was concerning since I have an infant. The carpet was very dated and dirty.If you don't mind an uncomfortable bed and a dated room this was not a bad place to stay. The bathroom was clean and the location was great very close to Dennis.

Decent location, good value for the money. Rooms reasonably plain, but clean. Included breakfast adequate, staff was quite helpful. Hot Tub was also clean, and appeared to be well-kept. Bar appeared to be a nice little place, although didn't get to use it this trip.
Out of control kids!! Probably my mistake, as the Saturday night which we checked in was the last day of Mass Feb. vacation. I guess that I didn't realize how noisy it could be; additionally, being put in a room which was in the access hall to the pool made it almost unbearable. One would have thought that the staff would have put us in an out-of-the-way room. To be fair, the staff did post people in the hall in order to keep the ruckus down to a dull roar, and Sunday night was indeed much quieter, but I can't recommend this place to anyone who wants to be assured of a quiet stay. I don't think that I'll risk another night's sleep by staying here again on my next trip to the Cape.

The hotel should be called a Motel. As soon as you walk in the moldy smell is apparent. The carpet is old and the front desk is not modern.The room had a musty smell and the patio door handle was broken. At our door there was a dirty Q-tip. The ceiling was showing the screws holding up the drywall and the art-deco look on the ceiling looks more like a bad drywall paste smearing. If you're desperate, then this place will do. Otherwise spend your money on something else. It was the downfall f our experience.

Very clean hotel with ample help from staff when needed. The location was great for accessing many of the places on Cape Cod we wanted to visit. Love the breakfast and 24/7 coffee.
The only negative: one morning the hot-food tray seemed to be less than warm; it wasn't hot enough for keeping items (eggs, etc.) as warm as they should have been. Otherwise the breakfast was splendid.Expect to use your car to go anywhere, such as restaurants. There are some sidewalks along the main road near the hotel, but nothing seems close enough for waling.

The location was ideal for traveling up and down the Cape! Close to restaurants and mini golf in West Yarmouth and close to restaurants, shopping, and beaches in Hyannis (just 5-10 minutes down the road!).
The breakfast diner had great food, but was a little pricier than I expected. Wish there was free continental breakfast. Also wish there was an elevator instead of having to drag luggage up a flight of stairs.I was very pleased with our stay here, especially considering the low price we paid. Room was clean and spacious. King bed was fairly comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised that the water during both my and my husband's showers stayed hot the entire time. We had a very comfortable stay here and slept well. The location was perfect and allowed us to travel up and down the Cape to visit Hyannis, Chatham, and P-town. I like that access to the rooms required a key to get in the building, but the hallway was hot and smelled strange.

Parking at check-in was a little difficult, but nothing that detracted from the entire experience.I gave 10 ratings and that is completely honest! When we first checked-in the original room we were given was next to the restaurant. So, we asked Susan at the front desk if it could be changed. She quickly put us in a much nicer location. Susan was exceptionally professional and just friendly enough to make us feel right at home. She even steered us to a fantastic restaurant (The Skipper). Other staff members were helpful with local information and accommodations. I was also pleasantly surprised to find Bromley Decaf Tea for the guests!

The staff was very helpful when it came to giving information about places to visit. There were not many maps or booklets though. We were told that was because the season was ending. We could probably find some at their sister resort next door. No one offered to get some for us.The complimentary breakfast was very good and the staff in the restaurant was pleasant. You had to go outdoors to reach the indoor pool which was somewhat inconvenient. The pool was nice and clean. The jacuzzi was warm but the light was burned out which made using it in the evening difficult. There was a skylight in the room which was fine during the day, but of no use after dark. Our room was average. We had asked for a room on the first floor and did receive that. It was supposed to have 2 queen beds, but had two doubles.

I love the location and have stayed many times because I thinks its the best location in Hyannis.
As per usual, although it is amongst the most expensive places to stay in Hyannis, the bar staff treats you like they are doing you a favor by serving you. Extremely unfriendly and un-welcoming. We left during the day to find a place we would be treated better. Its unfortunate, if the staffs treatment and attitude towards customers matched the excellent location it would be the best place in town.

Perspectives: Compliance Advisor
DOT Eyes Safe Transport of Crude Oil
Proposed rule addresses recent catastrophic railcar derailments.
On August 1, 2014, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), which falls under the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), published an important proposed rule intended to improve the safety of transportation of large quantities of flammable materials by rail — particularly crude oil and ethanol. The proposal responds to several catastrophic railcar derailments, all involving crude oil and resulting in fatalities. The DOT also issued on the same day a companion Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR). This article highlights both initiatives.
Overview of Proposal and ANPR
PHMSA is proposing new operational requirements for certain trains transporting large volumes of Class 3 flammable liquids; enhancements in tank car standards; and revisions of the general requirements for offerors to ensure proper classification and characterization of mined gases and liquids, including crude oil. The proposal, if issued in final as written, would require the phase-out of older DOT-111 tank cars for shipping Packing Group I flammable liquids by October 1, 2017, including most Bakken crude oil, and by October 1, 2018, and October 1, 2020, for Packing Groups II and III, respectively. The proposal also seeks information on expanding comprehensive oil- spill-response planning requirements for flammable material shipments.
The proposal is based on information obtained under a 2013 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) issued by PHMSA, one of many initiatives in response to the rash of rail car incidents involving the transport of flammable liquids. The DOT proposes to define the term "high-hazard flammable train" (HHFT) as a train carrying 20 or more tank carloads of flammable liquids, including crude oil and ethanol. The DOT proposes implementing a written sampling and testing program for all mined gases and liquids to address: the frequency of sampling and testing; sampling at various points along the supply chain; sampling methods that ensure a representative sample of the entire mixture; testing methods to enable better analysis, classification and characterization of material; statistical justification for sample frequencies; and duplicate samples for quality assurance.
The DOT also is proposing that offerors be required to certify that a compliant sampling and testing program is in place, document the testing and sampling program, and make program information available to DOT personnel upon request. Carriers would also be required to perform a routing analysis for HHFT that would consider 27 safety and security factors and select a route based on findings of the route analysis.
One of the most sweeping provisions in the proposal is the issuance of enhanced standards for both new and existing tank cars. The rule proposes new standards for tank cars constructed after October 1, 2015, that are used to transport flammable liquids as part of an HHFT. The DOT is requesting comment on three options for enhanced tank car standard requirements: require tank cars to have 9/16-in. steel, be outfitted with electronically controlled pneumatic (ECP) brakes, and be equipped with rollover protection; maintain the 9/16-in. steel requirement, but not require ECP brakes or rollover protection; and require 7/16-in. steel, but not require ECP brakes or rollover protection. The proposal also requires that existing tank cars used to transport flammable liquids as part of an HHFT be retrofitted to meet the selected option for performance requirements. The proposal would also require HHFTs carrying one-million gallons of Bakken crude oil to notify State Emergency Response Commissions (SERC) and appropriate other emergency responders about the transport of this material in their state. Comment also is requested on reduced operating speeds.
The ANPR seeks comment on oil spill response plans (OSRP) to HHFTs based on thresholds of crude oil. The ANPR asks specific questions, the responses to which will facilitate the development of a proposed rule that would adjust threshold quantities to trigger OSRP requirements.
Both initiatives are urgently needed to enhance the safe transport of large volumes of flammable liquids, especially crude oil. Informed comment is needed to ensure appropriate changes are made. Comments on both the NPRM and ANPR are due by September 30, 2014.

The future of many of the employees at a federal building in Houston may be in jeopardy. That simply means some FBI agents and support staff may not have a job by the end of the year.
FBI Director James Comey says, "unless Congress passes the budget that contains the FBI's appropriations I'm looking at having to reduce almost 3500 positions from the FBI."
And that means those agents who work in Houston are not exempt from the cuts that could come at the beginning of the year.
Those are the same agents who have already gone nearly three weeks without pay as a result of the earlier shutdown in Washington D.C.
But this action is the result of the sequester cuts.
FBI National Director James Comey's stop in Houston was expected to be just pomp and circumstance...but it turned out to be doom and gloom for the country's top law enforcement agency.
He says, "the need to cut the 3500 positions means the vacancies in Houston can not be filed."
That means there are 600 people in Houston's FBI division office who are very nervous. Then there's the trickle down effect to local law enforcement agencies and prosecutors.
Harris County District Attorney Devon Anderson says, "I think any sequester that affects the FBI will affect us too because we do work on task force with them and we partner with the US Attorney's office on quite a few things."
Then there are those who are on the front lines like the Houston Police Department. Their ties to the FBI involves human tracking, bank robberies, murders, drug trafficking and the list goes on.
Houston police Chief Charles McClelland says, "the Houston police department, the sheriff's department depends on the task forces and the FBI."
Comey says as of October 1 he's looking at a $700 million gutting of his annual $8 billion budget from Congress...He says unfortunately the cold reality is Houston simply needs to prepare unless Washington does an about face.

Project Pat - Never Be a G
Artist: Project Pat
Featuring: Juicy J
Producer: Mike WiLL Made It
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 3 total votes )
In contemporary American society, it's common to tell kids that they can be anything they want to be, if they simply set their mind to it. Project Pat doesn't entirely agree. On a new single, the Memphis representative brusquely informs busters and snitches that, no matter how hard they may try to look and act the part, they just ain't cut out for the street life: "You'll Never ever ever ever ever Be a G." Backed by the eerie keys and pummeling percussion of Mike WiLL Made It, Pat looks back on his formative years as a chopper-toting tough, and mocks his foes for their lack of experience on the block. Currently accompanying the headliner and Travi$ Scott on the national Never Sober Tour, Juicy J handles verse two, and Montgomery, Alabama-repping newcomer Doe B rounds out the lineup. This joint isn't currently attached to a larger set, but we'll keep you posted on Project Pat's 2014 plans as further details emerge.

Watch Jeff Mangum, Members of Sonic Youth, Fugazi, TV on the Radio Perform at Occupy Telethon
By Carrie Battan on November 15, 2012 at 8:00 p.m. EST

The last time Neutral Milk Hotel's Jeff Mangum gave an Occupy Wall Street-affiliated performance, we had to enjoy it through grainy YouTubes posted after the fact. But tonight, you can watch Mangum perform live at New York City's Le Poisson Rouge for "The People's Bailout", an OWS telepthon aiming to raise $50,000 for the Occupy-affiliated organization Strike Debt.

Listen: Alan Moore (Watchmen, V for Vendetta), Releases Song in Support of Occupy Wall Street
By Evan Minsker on November 5, 2012 at 12:43 a.m. EST
Alan Moore: "The Decline of English Murder"
It's the fifth of November, and Alan Moore, the mad genius behind Watchmen and V for Vendetta, is showing his support for the Occupy Wall Street movement and the hacktivist group Anonymous. He has recorded a benefit song for Occupy called "The Decline of English Murder" about the greed of banks and the incompetence of government. It's out today via Occupation Records (the label of the Occupy movement).
Moore wrote and sings the song, while Joe Brown plays the music. If you download the single at the label's website, you'll get the chance to win a V for Vendetta mask signed by Moore.
It's out today in conjunction with Anonymous' Operation Vendetta. Today, around 5,000 people are set to reenact the final scene of V for Vendetta-- the masked march, not the explosions.
Moore visited an Occupy protest at the London Stock Exchange earlier this year, where he voiced his support:
"A tidal wave cannot be said to have succeeded or failed. All that it can be said to have done is changed things. Often monumental ... I would say to critics-- what are you doing about the current situation. If you are happy with it, what the hell is wrong with you?"
This isn't Moore's first time in the music world-- in 2010, he released the Unearthing box set, which featured Fog's Andrew Broder, Doseone, Death Grips' Zach Hill, Mogwai's Stuart Braithwaite, and others.
Here's a video of Moore's Occupy visit from earlier this year:

This place was amazing to stay at! Their sheets are absurdly comfortable, to the point where there's a sign next to the bed on how to buy them. The elderly couple that runs this place is extremely friendly and can cook up a mean breakfast. It was a bummer we had to leave early on Sunday as I would've loved to stay longer. I would definitely go back here and spend more time lounging around.

My husband and I have never stayed at a B&B before. Well it is safe to say that we are ruined for any other B&B! From the moment we pulled into the gate we knew that this little getaway was going to be amazing. Our room was comfy. The sheets were divine. The views were spectacular! When we arrived we were offered a glass of wine and there were cookies in our room! The breakfast each morning could have came from a 5 star chef. Simply divine. We even made friends with the other couple staying there. Our time was amazing. I can't wait to go back!

My recent three day stay at the Winemakers Porch was a fantastic experience set in the peaceful wine country of Paso Robles. Anyone who plans to visit this great wine tasting area of California will not be disappointed with the accomodations. The owners attend to your every need and prepare wonderful breakfasts. K. Boudreau

Charming, friendly people run this establishment. We stay here often. A breath of fresh air (literally) from living in the Los Angeles area! Beautiful grounds to wander day or evening, the most beautiful and delicious breakfasts, you would think you were at some fancy restaurant in New York. 3 rooms total. 2 are in a separate building removed from the main house. Every experience we have had here has been awesome, and we have had many. We have only stayed at one other B&B in Paso Robles. Once we found this place, why mess with perfection?

Marlowe and Corinne were such wonderful hosts and made this an exceptional B&B stay for us in Paso Robles. We stayed in the room within the house and had as much privacy as we needed and we loved the amazingly comfortable sheets, the complimentary bottle of wine/cookies/tea & coffee. The grounds were spectacular, even in the winter when the vineyard is dormant. And who can forget the 5-star breakfast that they made us in the morning - wow! I highly recommend the Winemakers Porch if you are in the area. We also got some great tips from Marlowe for our trip up the coast. Thanks again for everything!
5 en noviembre 13, 2013
We had a lovely weekend with Corinne and Marlowe who are wonderful and gracious hosts. They gave us suggestions on neighboring vineyards to visit and we were treated to a tasting of Marlowe's wine as well. Gourmet breakfasts that filled us up each morning. We will book definitely book here the next time we are in Paso.

Other plans call for the revitalization and rehabilitation of the building's exterior, said city senior planner Linwood Robinson. Read More»

It's an admission few musicians might make. But JD Malone does so with utter sincerity.
"I've always wanted to be the worst musician in my band," says the guitarist and singer-songwriter. "I don't have to be the focal point of the group that I'm in."
Never mind that Malone, who put his band, The Experts, together in 2009, has been generating some of the biggest buzz of his career this year with the release of the double-disc album "Avalon." A CD/DVD package, the debut project for the roots-rock outfit has received positive reviews from several publications and online sites and entered the Americana Airplay charts at No. 4, making it the highest new artist entry upon its July 12 release. There were comparisons to John Mellencamp and Bruce Springsteen, to Tom Petty and Creedence Clearwater Revival — the latter two fitting, considering album covers "I Should Have Known It" and "Fortunate Son" — as Malone plied a rugged poetry in his tales of worn and battered romance, ungirded cynicism and fumbling through loss.
But he is not one to let such attention inflate his ego. That's partly why he's surrounded himself with stellar musicians like Tommy Geddes on drums, Avery Coffee on electric guitar and Tom Hampton on everything from dobro and mandolin to pedal steel and baritone guitars. Doing so, he says, leaves ample room for growth.
It's also why, despite a palette steeped in rock and Americana, with the occasional country twang or bluesy edge, he never strived for a specific sound on "Avalon."
"What I'm interested in, with the musicians that I play with, is cultivating their personality into my music. I want them to feel like they have the freedom to take chances," says Malone. "What I'm interested in is magic. ... I'm looking to inspire people and I'm looking for them to inspire me."
The chemistry he has with The Experts has translated into a palpable authenticity, live and on the album, with the band seemingly intent on having as much fun as it is displaying a tight musical prowess. But the spotlight the guys have found themselves in during the last few months hasn't all been a boon. Sure, Malone is grateful that "Avalon" proved to be a game-changer, drawing more widespread appreciation for the band, but the business of making music has already taken its toll.
Malone co-produced "Avalon" with Dean Sciarra, president of the Philadelphia-based indie label ItsAboutMusic.com, and Grammy-winning producer Phil Nicolo (Santana, Aerosmith, Lauryn Hill). While he knew the collaboration would capture the grit of the band's live sound, he wasn't prepared for the marketing and publicity machine that was often at odds with his creative impulses.
"I developed this band for two years to where people saw it and were, like, the world needs to see this or hear this, and then they get their hands on it and try to change it. That doesn't make sense to me," he says, adding he eventually found himself in a situation where he was compromising instead of thriving.
And so, in 2012, he'll scuttle his label trappings to reclaim The Experts' independence, a move that is perhaps no surprise for a man who even as a teen forged his own path through music. The Bennington, Vt., native was reared on his mom's collection of '70s pop, everything from Fleetwood Mac to ABBA. And though he was a shy kid, singing was the one place where he could easily banish his bashfulness.
Malone remembers bringing records in to his home economics class and sitting on a table to sing to his classmates. On school bus trips, he was the one they turned to for renditions of their favorite songs.
"In every other aspect of my life, I was very shy, but when it came to singing in front of people, I wasn't," says Malone, who performs at Puck in Doylestown on Saturday. "I just felt that was what I was meant to do."
He didn't take as naturally to guitar, however, shunning technique in favor of a 13-year-old's fervor to thrash to Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple.
"It's been a long road because my route has been learn a song that's already written and then take what I've learned and apply it to my own," says Malone, who is mostly self-taught. "I never really had any mentors that got me on the fast track."
And so he felt his own way, feeding off the joy and discovery of playing his instrument before immersing himself in the more technical and theoretical aspects of music. He eventually enlisted in the Navy.
After starting a few bands while at sea — the captain realized music was a morale booster and started booking him gigs in various ports — Malone decided to make a career of his passion when he left.
About three years after moving to the Philadelphia area in 1989, he formed the pop-rock band Steamroller Picnic, which built an enthusiastic following along the East Coast. But after 12 years, Malone felt it was time for something new and left the band.
Since then, whatever he's done, he's remained mindful of tapping into something bigger than himself, whether that's creatively or through the opportunity to make a difference in someone's life through music. In October, he kicked off his "Do What You Can Do" tour — borrowing the title from an album cut inspired by a friend he lost to cancer — partnering with charitable organizations in each city he played to make a difference in those communities. At his Puck show, he'll be collecting non-perishable items for the Doylestown Food Pantry.
"I want to skip the middle man," says Malone. "I can't cure cancer ... but I can have people who knit hats and scarves for cancer patients come to a show. I'm interested in seeing more immediate results and I think a lot of people feel that way, too."
Even the regular open-mike nights he holds at Puck, driving an hour from his Phoenixville, Chester County, home have a "philanthropic vibe" to them.
"I think I can be inspirational to up-and-coming singer-songwriters. Wherever I am on the food chain of songwriters, here's a place they can go and see something they can aspire to," he says. "For people just starting out, it's something concrete. They can say, 'I'm never going to be Elton John, but I can get to that level.' And maybe once they attain that, they'll go even further."
JD Malone & The Experts perform Saturday at Puck, 1 Printer's Alley, Doylestown. Show time: 7 p.m. Tickets: in advance, $10; at the door, $12. Information: 215-348-9000; www.pucklive.com.

The former England striker is currently plying his trade with Barclays Premier League side Stoke City but he confirmed this week that he will bring the curtain down on his playing career in May. Hence we thought it would be good to hear from the man himself on the highlights of his three seasons at Old Trafford.
Naturally, the Manchester derby winner crops up in conversation, but Owen also makes clear his genuine fondness for time spent working with Sir Alex and team-mates and staff, and talks of mutual respect with the supporters.

India can sometimes bring the fundamentals of life into sharp relief and watching whilst a family cremates grandma on an open bonfire of banyan wood alonside the River Ganges inevitably raised uncomfortable issues of our own mortality. So, it was with some relief that the clean, fresh Himalayan air of Nepal washed away granny's remaining smoke and ash from what's left of my hair as we entered Chitwan Wildlife Reserve.
We had 3 nights and a rather nice time at Chitwan with the obligatory elephant safaris, jungle walks and Nepalese stick dancing. So, we just thought it'd be nice to post up a few photos from the park.
We saw these two rhinos from the back of an elephant, but later in the day we came face to face with one as we walked through the jungle. On foot and less than 100 yards away is actually pretty scarey and the expression in it's eyes was reminiscent of an ex-girlfriend..
Beauty is a 3 month old rhino who was unfortunately orphaned after her mother was poached. It's only a few minutes for an egg, how long for a whole rhino? She's looked after by a local vet and totally adorable, I fell in love. Her skin is just so unbelievably thick (it feels like it's made of glass fibre or something) that it's amazing she can move around inside it.
There were quite a few of these crocs basking in the sun, but Adrian reckons they were so still because they were actually stuffed and put in place for the tourists.
So there you go! Only a short entry after the last epic Weblog, but we made it to Kathmandu and the end of the first leg of our journey. We're going to spend a few days looking around the area before organising freight of the bikes and ourselves to Bangkok. If the weather is good, we might even be able to get a view of Mt. Everest. Should also catch up with an old school friend, Rupert Smith, next week as he'll be in town.
Just a quick post to say Happy Xmas and a Happy New Year from the tropical island paradise of Koh Chang in the Gulf of Thailand.
Things just don't get better than this and I feel I am the luckiest man alive to be a able to be here. There are 7 other overland motorcylists here (Cliff & Jenny Batley, Ralph & Caroline, Peter & Carol and Kate), so we'll be having a 'small' celebration before hitting the surf. It's just a shame that the accomodation on the island is so full that we're getting booted out of our beach huts on Xmas day. Hammock on the beach anybody? And maybe then we'll find time to investigate the rather loud rattle that's emanating from the right hand cylinder head....
Anyway, I'd like to say a massive thankyou to everybody who has taken the time read the WebLog and to follow our exploits. It is so heartening and encouraging to read everybody's comments and receive emails from around the world.
And trust me, in the next update you'll see just how unexpected events can turn things inside out. "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans".
All the best for 2003 and Happy Xmas!

There was no mini-fridge, not enough towels the 2nd time we stayed, bed/desk chair were uncomfortable; walls are thin so I got woke up by the neighbor starting the shower, very frustrating!

Dark and outdated room, hairs left in the tub and bathroom area, disappointing breakfastMy husband and I wanted a place to stay overnight on our way through South Dakota. This Days Inn mostly met our expectations. We could hear some noise in the halls but overall our night was fine. The free breakfast the next morning was somewhat disappointing and minimalist so we decided to leave and get breakfast elsewhere. If you are looking for anything above basic, this may not be the hotel for you. But if you just need a simple place to stay for a night or two, this hotel can do the trick.

Smelled of smoking.Overall, we were there just to spend the night and leave early the next day. The breakfast was danishes, toast/jelly, oatmeal and cereal. Milk, coffee and orange juice... so the breakfast was decent, especially if you're in a hurry.
