Towns top Maine angler at 2014 Old Milwaukee B.A.S.S. Nation Eastern Divisional
St. Lawrence River, Waddington, NY, Sep 24-26, 2014
Leaderboard l Main l B.A.S.S. Nation Blog l Maine Team l Video: Dramatic rescue on St. Lawrence (with Joe Holland)
Smallmouth bass of 3-4 lbs were common with a few 5's and a couple that reached six! The bass were mostly caught by dragging tubes, or drop shotting in depths of 25-45'. The Maine team caught a bunch of fish during the week and ended the tournament 9th place overall.
Chuck Towns, added 15-9 with his 15-3 Day 1 weight to give him over a 4lb lead on the Maine team with 30-12 after 2 days. Towns knew he had Maine angler George Cooper looking to take over the Maine lead on day 3. However, Towns kept up his pace and finished strong on day 3 with 11-1, that bag gave Towns a 3 day total of 41-13 earning him a spot in the 2014 Old Milwaukee B.A.S.S. Nation Championship Ouachita River, Monroe, Louisiana on Nov. 6-8, 2014. Towns said he was excited to move on to the Championship. Congrats Chuck and good luck at the Championship, Maine's rooting for you!
After leading the Maine Team on Day 1 with 5 bass for 15-4, George Cooper said "his fish shrank in size a little" on Day 2 and they shrank a little more on day 3. Cooper's 3 day weight of 37-1 was good enough for 2nd place on the Maine team, eliminating his chance for another trip the Nationals.
Joe Holland after a slight struggle on day 1 and 2 redeemed himself on day 3 with 17-5 to give him a 3 day total of 32-15 and 3rd place on the Maine team.
Dwayne Turnage ended the tournament with 31-5, good enough for 4th place on the Maine team. Turnage had a rough day 1 but came back strong on day 2 and 3.
Kevin Busch weighed in a 14-4 bag on day 3 after removing a hook that was lodged in his palm on day 2, see photo on day 2 weigh in on bassmaster.com. Busch ended the tournament with 31-3. Busch finished in 5th place for the Maine team.
Scott Guimond had two big consistent days to start the event unfortunately day 3 was a lot slower. Guimond netted just 2 bass on day 3 which gave him a 3 day total of 29-0. That weight gave Guimond a 6th place finish on the Maine team.
After a good start on day 1 Mark Lodge fell a bit on day 2 but came back strong on day 3 with 10-5 to give him a 3 day total of 27-14, earning him 7th place on the Maine team.
Steve Wilson, Maine B.A.S.S. Nation President who was very consistent on day 1 and 2 was just looking for a ten pound bag on day 3. Wilson known as a very good shallow largemouth angler was a little short on what he wanted, but squeaked out just 5-4 on day 3 giving him a 3 day total of 23-15 good enough for 8th place on the Maine team. Although Wilsons fish were not as big as he wanted he did an excellent job on stage thanking all the sponsors, tournament hosts and many more on a job well done.
Scott Barker had a down and up day to start the event and day 3 he weighed in just 2 bass for 5-3 for a 3 day total of 20-15. That weight put him in 9th place on the Maine team.
Windham Christian Academy Daniel Rodgers & Alex Williamson had a slow day 1 and managed 1 bass for 3-3. Day 2 saw the high school team come back huge with a 14-13 bag for a 2 day total of 18-0. The team culled 3 or 4 times and caught most of their fish on 1 spot which was a small eddy. The teams coach was Maine team member, Dave Reiss. Their weight puts them in 10th place on the team.
John Grondin had a tough first 2 days but finished strong on day 3 with 9-1, giving Grondin a 3 day total of 14-9 which gave him a 11th place finish for the Maine team.
Scott Laliberty weighed in 1-4 and 11-12 for a 3 day total of 12-6, earning him 12th place for Maine team.
Also attending the event was Maine team member and 2nd alternate Keith Poulin.
Another highlight on day 3 was when Javier Guillen of Spain proposed to Victoria(Spains Interpretor) on stage after having her pull out an engagement ring from a bag of soft plastics, Victoria gave him a huge hug so we can assume the wedding is in the works!
Glen Bruce, Maine State Champion
Glen Bruce of Rocky Coast is the Maine Champion with 10 bass weighing 27.41. Day 1 big smallmouth, 4.41 was caught by Jed Harris of Knox County Bassmasters. Toby Cross of Classic Bassmasters has the Day 1 Big largemouth, that bass weighed 4.06. The average sized bass of all fish caught today was 1.98. Day 2 smallmouth lunker Glen Bruce 4.02. Day 2 largemouth lunker Bob Smith of Classic 3.84.
Over 100 anglers competed in the two day event.
The slow moving stretch of the Androscoggin should produce a number of limit sized bass for all with a chance at a few 5 bass limits that may reach weights up to 15 lbs. The average 5 bass limits should be around 10-12 lbs.
The 2 day event will send Maine's top anglers to the B.A.S.S. Nation Eastern Divisional on the Connecticut River in Hartford, CT. More info

Boom blocking canal draws boos from fishermen, boaters
By Judy Benson
Public objections to an orange boom that blocks access to a popular canal off the Connecticut River have prompted state environmental regulators to ask the owners of the Connecticut Yankee power plant site who installed the barrier to modify it. "We've asked them to look at alternatives, such as removing it or moving it back," said Dennis Schain, spokesman for the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. "We're anxious for them to complete an evaluation of other options." Read full article

Trickey Pond Clean Up, a success!
Photos l Camerons Web site: www.helpsaveourfish.com
On Saturday Sept 6 Cameron Patterson a Boy Scout working on his Eagle project organized a clean up on Trickey Pond. The day was spent gathering litter from the pond.
The Maine Warden Service was there to help with diving, and members of the Maine B.A.S.S. Nation were also on hand as were other volunteers. Cameron was also involved in installing a Recycling Container to help with the recycling of soft plastic lures.
The Maine B.A.S.S. Nation has been installing these recycling tubes for a few years now throughout Maine with positive results which have been improving each year. The tubes are out there around Maine's lake, ponds, and rivers and we need to make sure they are visible to people as well as making sure people are educated on the use of these tubes.
Winslow Boy Scout Aims For Honor Not Bestowed In Maine In 72 Years
By Rob Poindexter
Read full article with video at WABI
A Boy Scout from Troop 433 in Winslow is spearheading an effort to clean up Maine's lakes and earn a prestigious award that hasn't been given out in Maine in more than 70 years. Cameron Patterson is about to become an Eagle Scout, quite an accomplishment for a 15 year-old. But Cameron Patterson is not your ordinary teenager. A bout with bacterial meningitis almost took his life when he was younger and now he says he uses scouting to prove that nothing in life is impossible. When his scoutmaster challenged him to qualify for the William T. Hornaday Award in addition to his Eagle Scout, he jumped in with both feet. Read article

Central Maine lakes draw Major League Fishing anglers for tournament
CHINA — The biggest names in fishing, and the roughly 100-person-strong television production team that follows their every move and later broadcasts the action on national cable and network television, plied the waters of central Maine for bass over the last several days. Major League Fishing brought 30 of the nation's elite competitive anglers to the area to fish Long Pond, Great Pond, Messalonskee Lake and China Lake. However, in the league's unique format, none of the anglers knew what bodies of water they were fishing until the morning of each fishing day, so they wouldn't have time to research the best places to fish.

Just as he has done in Iraq and Afghanistan snatching defeat from the victories won by the blood and sacrifice of American soldiers, Barack Obama achieves another great defeat for freedom. The man who scorned Mitt Romney's warning during the presidential campaign that the former Soviet Union was still an enemy force with which to reckon, America's most liberal president has squandered the liberty of Ukraine to his own folly. Telling Romney that the 1980s and 90s wanted their Cold War fears back, Obama belittled Romney's wisdom and now the people of Ukraine are going to pay the price.
Putin moves Russian military into Ukraine
Barack Obama has been on the wrong side of everything that Ronald Reagan and the conservative Right have accomplished in the last thirty years. The collapsed the Soviet Union, brought about by the strength of Ronaldus Magnus whom the Left scorn as inconsequential, is now revitalized and resurgent in the face of the weakest president in U.S. history. In his ignorance and foolishness, Obama is eating the words he spoke to Romney in the campaign along with crow.
Obama scorns Romney's warnings of Soviet intentions
Obama scoffed at Romney,
"The 1980's are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back."
People mocked Sarah Palin for saying Russia can be seen from Alaska. All of them are now standing looking stupid as everything Romney and Palin said are proven true.

Veteran Removes American Flag!!!
Posted by sjcbucket on Apr. 23, 2008
Posted by sjcbucket on Apr. 23, 2008
Nice: totally agree. Illegal and disrespectful to ever have a flag above the US's in America. He should have burned the Mexican flag.
WRONG: Disrespectfull! other countries do not do the same. There is never a reason to fly another countries flag above.It does not happen in Canada!!Griimy5 has his head up his lack of international law and ASS!!
I guess: veterans can walk around with huge knives and steal other peoples' property, unless they want to fight for their stuff. Somehow, I don't think that's entirely right. It may have been a special day in Mexico, and that's why the flags were reversed. I know my Canadian flag flies higher every July 1, and nobody's done that to me.
Old: news!
Hell: Yes!
" It may have been a special day in Mexico": why would an american news station go down to a mexican bar in mexico?. it was in america.
Ah, yes.: Flying the flags reversed is, of course, disrespectful, except on "occaision" days. And you obviously like your concealed weapon laws, vandalism custom and culture of theft. Last time I looked, even America was against that. Charge the store owner, and have the veteran pay restitution, then all the wrongs will be righted.
Again,: it's against the law and disrespectful. You're in our country with our laws, customs and culture. If you want your customs, your laws and your culture; you have an entire country elsewhere centered around them. Go to it...simple as that.

Naturist club objects to erection of five storey tower block
Members of a Surrey naturist club have reacted with fury to plans to build a tower block which would overlook their clothes-free sanctuary. The 70-year-old White House Club, which has 300 members on its books, is objecting in the strong possible terms to the proposed erection of a five story block which would overlook its …
70 year old
formed in 1940 then. During the war - weren't they a bit "over-looked" by aircraft ?
Blackouts, remember? And it's not like you could make out anything shocking from a few thousand feet up, not without the aid of powerful optics -- and see my other comment, below, for why you wouldn't want to.
Yes, but there WAS a war on
The club is near the airfields at both Biggin Hill and Kenley, and it was much frequented in the 1940s by Service personnel.
Weren't we supposed to be fighting for freedom in this country, then? My memory's not what it used to be, but I think we were, and that we won. So, has something happened to freedom since?
"have reacted with fury"
Uh, has El Reg started hiring Daily Mail hacks or something?
Surely it should have been "naked fury"?
"...The 70-year-old White House Club..."
I'm sorry, but the idea of 70-year-old naturists really puts me off my lunch!
Man, that's no joke
As you'd know if you'd ever visited a naturist club.
Correct me if I'm wrong, the point of being a naturist is the desire to be free and uninhibited with regards to wearing clothes, and in fact one of the arguements is about desexualising nudity. It *shouldn't* matter who sees you naked if these are your beliefs, and they should be if you're at a naturist resort.
As the guy below says...
Once the flats are up, residents (who naturally won't be told about the nudey club in advance) will start complaining to the council about the nudey club.
In fact, going by some recent cases, the simple fact that flats potentially housing children overlook the site will automatically convert the consenting unclad adults into megaperv paedomonsters in the eyes of the law.
I'm not a nudist, but I do kind of feel for the members. F'nar.
(And I was trying so hard to be serious, too.)
The point of being a naturist
Paul 87 is quite correct that is shouldn't matter. Unfortunately the protection against prejudice is inadequate and a photograph appearing on the internet could cost somebody their career.
As a naturist myself I don't mind baring all before the like-minded, but I would certainly feel self-conscious and embarrassed being gawped at by the common rabble. So no, this erection (like any other) is out of place at a naturist resort
"who naturally won't be told about the nudey club in advance"
The first rule of Nudey Club is, you do not talk about Nudey Club.....
I won't be needing my coat.
Willing to wager that once the flats are up the new residents will be able to complain and the club will get shut down for being full of dirty naked people, as I'm pretty sure it's a sex crime in the UK to be in your back garden, naked, playing a game.
I'm pretty sure it's a sex crime in the UK...
... to be in your back garden, naked, playing a game.
Actually it's not.
IANAL, but quoting the Sexual Offences Act 2003:
66 Exposure
(1)A person commits an offence if—
(a)he intentionally exposes his genitals, and
(b)he intends that someone will see them and be caused alarm or distress.
67 Voyeurism
(1)A person commits an offence if—
(a)for the purpose of obtaining sexual gratification, he observes another person doing a private act, and
(b)he knows that the other person does not consent to being observed for his sexual gratification.
So if someone is in a place where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy, they can be nude without problem, but if someone's peeping at them and getting their jollies from this then that person will be committing an offence.
If they can't get the development stopped, I suggest they invest in some Leylandii.
Brilliant headline
"erection of five storey tower block"
Made my day, thank you. :-)
How else
would you talk about getting something that big up?
I think it should have been...
"Naturist club objects to erection" and left it at that.
Mines the one with the moving bush in the pocket.
"open to new members"
Nudity no problem then?
If the local council feels that the naturists no longer need the privacy of their own club and grounds, and that nakedness in public is not a problem, then this allows them to be naked wherever they like, i.e. in the parks, public swimming pools, etc. It would be hypocritical to argue otherwise.
Hypocrisy, meet local government...
...ah, I see you've already met...
Not the problem
AFAIK from family members who tend to be clothing-optional in hot weather, having other people seeing isn't really the problem. The real problem, as the bloke in the news recently flagged up, is that people could buy houses or flats overlooking known-knudist places and then complain to the police about how shocked they are to see naked bodies. The naturists have put up nice big screens so that no-one can currently see in, but those are not designed to cope with a 5-storey tower block (or a 3-storey house, in the case of the bloke in the news). So they're likely to be criminalised for doing what they've been doing for decades, in spite of doing everything physically possible to avoid offence to the public and the real cause of them being visible is the folks building the new houses.
I spose some people might ask why anyone wants to be clothing-optional, but then some people (e.g. the Catholic church) might also ask why two people want to have sex. In the privacy of your own home, it's generally accepted that what two consenting adults get up to in bed is their own business, and also that getting up to the same thing in the middle of the town square is not acceptable. (And yes, that does include getting drunk and falling asleep. ;)
But suppose someone invented X-ray glasses and handed them out to the world. Should sex then be made illegal, because someone could look through your walls and see what you're up to? That's rather the situation that the naturists find themselves in. Like a thistle in a nudist camp, it's a prickly situation that can easily become a real pain in the arse.
(Yes, that's me checking my clothes in.)
So presumably if the club sticks up big screens blocking the view of all 5 floors, then there'd be no problems. Of course it might make the flats a bit difficult to sell with windows that just look out over a big white sheet !
"you'll be saving on all that flash sports kit"
Badoom TSHhhh!
Nothing to worry about
"might be tempted to spy on White House's nude ping pong tournaments, boules court and early morning skinny dipping sessions"
They really needn't worry - I'm yet to see an attractive naturist.
Would rather spend my time ogling a modestly-clothed pretty girl than seeing all that loose flesh on display, thanks!
Depends where you live
I'm guessing that you haven't emigrated yet then. I'll tell you that around here you would have NOOOO problems with the naturists.
Anon because well, people might get the wrong idea.
News Quiz...
"Amateur dramatics is like naturism. The keenest participants are the ones you aren't interested in watching"
I'll get me,,,, no 'ang on, that's not allowed, is it?
300 members on their books
Is that hygienic?
Better headline...
...would have been "Massive erection upsets naturists", shirley?
I'm just grateful ...
... that there was no reference to 'stiff opposition'.
Won't somebody think of the children...
Or the children with a camera and a web connection!
Streaming 70 year old naked ping pong tournaments.
yeh but
"I don't want any Tom, Dick or Harry staring at me . ."
Could be 'I don't want any Tom or Harry staring at me Dick . . .'
Perfect idea for a new webcam site!
Paying rent in that place would be a breeze. A cluster of webcams streaming to several servers, a catchy name and a bargain price on subscriptions...
local government perv?
Sounds like the planning inspector is a bit of a perv. If he - and I assume it's a he - has okayed the planning permission then I think he should be prepared to relocate his office to the nudist club and forced to work in the raw. Let's see if those overlooking him from this new development will make him change his mind.
*Big Brother icon cos he'll be buying up one of those flats*
Ping Pong
Wonder if they get much spin on the balls at ping pong?
grounds for closure
That's always the way it goes. The local council wants to get rid of the club, there are no legal grounds yet, but wait, if they had lots of complaints from sorrounding residents they could get rid of it, and make use of all that lovely open ground currently going to waste. But the surrounding resident can't see in, but a block of flats is ideal.
Why is it?
The keenest naturists are usually the least qualified?
And why do you never get streakers at major sporting events anymore?
no more streakers
Probably because it's no longer a bit of fun, as anyone doing it will likely be flagged as a sex offender and end up on the register.
Similar problem here
We rarely wear clothes at home unless expecting guests (it can be a bit frantic when the doorbell goes unexpectedly!). A new tower block is being built almost directly opposite us with windows facing our windows. When they are finished we will be left with the choice of putting curtains up (we never needed them before) and keeping them closed, or wearing at least some clothes all the time at home.
every icon tells a story
White Doctor's coats. That's yer answer
I am going to set up a star-gazing telescope shop
Everyone in the new high-rise overlooking the sun worshipper club should take up astrology.
I think I will set up a stand as soon as people move in. Come to think of it, sales might not be so great as likely the first two floors won't see much, which would reduce my potential profits by two-filths. Mmmmm
This story reminds me of Shipton Sands in Devon
To older ex-military types Operation Tiger on Shipton Sands was one of the giant military exercises off the Devon coast in preparation for the D-Day landings of World War 2.
Years later my parents took their children camping and we used to play on the beaches as well as climb on the rocks at the east end of the Shipton Sands.
One day, I and my brothers climbed the rocks further than we had ever gone before - only to be presented by the most unusual sight of our then young lives.
The Shipton Sands Nudist Club. Right on the public beach! They were very decent about it and never complained about our sudden interest in rock climbing.
Wonder if they are still there?
The White House Club
The White House Club: do they have a website? If so I expect it to be pwned by Jihad-kiddies in 5... 4... 3....
Trees needed
Plant a Leylandii Hedge and overshadow the block of flats.
Like Lucas Heights, Australia.
Many decades ego, they built a medical-grade nuclear facility out in the bush away from Sydney. Then people built houses around it. And now you should hear them whining long and hard about how horrible it is to have a nuclear facility on their doorsteps.
I can guarentee the same will happen here.
Room with a view
Just have the building have no windows facing. Beach condos often face the beach and not face the parking lot/road. Shouldn't be a problem, as they will need to get permits for their design anyway.
OMG I just had a great idea!
I've just had a great Idea that will solve this problem for everyone.....
iPads! Yes - use iPads all the time while being naked - its just big enough to cover most rude downstairs lap areas! (Unless you're a lucky chap!) Not sure what ladies will need to do to cover their upper rude area - maybe two more iPads? Either way, just converting to fanboism will solve all problems!
See, it really is true that Apple products solve all known problems!
Mine's the one i'm not actually wearing.
Whe I was a boy....
I used to deliver milk to the White House Club. I remember it had a high wall or fence and high gates, and we used to have to ring the bell (at the gate), wait for a prescribed number of minutes, and then open the gate and drop the milk in what I presume was the kitchen. The grounds were very verdant and I seem to remember many large trees giving cover.
It would seem a shame that what to me seemed a respectable private club should have their privacy invaded by gawpers from adjacent flats. The council should be taken to task over this.
Makes the obligatory
"The grounds were very verdant and I seem to remember many large trees giving cover"
So plenty of the bushes then?
Sorry, had to be done. I'll get me green and white stick man
Use a restrictive covenant, may be?
Suppose they let the erection of the flats go ahead, but with the proviso that any and every prospective flat owner must be a member (in good standing, of course!) of British Naturism?
What exactly is natural about running naked outside in an English climate? Hypothermia?
And even in the warmer summers of the US mid-Atlantic states, there are all sorts of things that clothes shield one against beside prying eyes: bugs, thorns, poison ivy, ultraviolet light, to name just a few.

What do you want for your birthday? by JustBeAQueen Rated: NC-18 [Reviews - 8]
Gapfiller for episode 114.
What does Justin ask for his birthday? We all want to know... well, here's the answer, according to me.
PWP. Justin/Brian alternating POV.
We all knew Justin was a top, well here's the start of that... and a threesome is involved. Erotic fun is had by all, of course! Join our favorite men in this steamy tail of gay sex.
Stand-alone-ish. Meaning it is a stand alone story... but if you want a sequal, read Be Careful What You Wish For (coming soon).
Reviews are always welcome.
A/N: Thank you to my wonderful banner creater Jackie Mag... I accidently had this on Be Careful What You Wish For... it kind of fits, but it was meant for this one. Thanks D for your brilliance! :)

The Thorne Saga by paeansong Rated: GENERAL [Reviews - 82]
During this Intermission for my other stories, I wanted to share with you something that I wrote. You'll have to consider this a multi-chaptered fluffy crackfic! or as I close as I'll probably every come to writing one. Brian and Justin have formed a legal union and are sort-of-living in New York City more than a year after the events in episode 513. I should warn you that this is obviously a parallel universe…for there are strange elements in the air, which seem to be causing the usual canon characters, and even my new characters, to adopt certain Over-The-Top behaviors. Brian would blame everything on the approach of Justin's birthday. You'll have to judge for yourself. This story has really short chapters, so I will be posting almost daily. I hope that you like this story.

Great place to stay -central to sight-seeing. Great accommodations, good breakfasts (except no options if food does not fit your diet/likes. Dining room is a plus. Room were like new. Con- bathroom sink is at an angle that you can't even place a bar of soap on it without it's slipping into the sink

We had 3 nights here recently. It was excellent in all respects: quiet, relaxed, homely, comfortable, very welcoming staff, very good breakfasts and evening dinners. Bedroom was tasefully furnished and our bed was very comfortable. We highly recommend this inn.

My Wife and I had an amazing visit to the Squam Lake Inn. As we drove into the driveway of the Inn we knew we had picked a winner. As we checked in we were greeted by Molly. I'm not sure of her title but she was there to serve us breakfast and there to refill the sugar jar late into the evening and help with anything in between. Not to leave out the rest of the Staff at the Inn who were all very busy doing what they do and always smiling and able to answer all my questions. The room. - As Molly (there she is again) guides us up the stairs past the reading nook (and the guest Keurig and refrigerator) to our room we couldn't help but notice how clean everything was. Down the hall to our perfectly decorated room, with a big screen tv hanging on the wall (sorry i'm a guy). Molly gave us a quick tour of the room and let us know she would be down stairs or in the Kitchen if we needed anything. The bed although not a king was super comfortable and the bathroom was plenty big enough for me (a full figured fella). Back down stairs for Dinner. WOW, I am so glad we decided to stay for dinner. Amazing food and service, the staff is all super nice. Back up to the room for some much needed rest. Breakfast - what all of us go to the bed and breakfast for right! Well it was perfect. Like any great B&B, the breakfast can't be your run of the mill, same ol' had it last Sunday meal. Molly (whats up with this Molly anyway, I think she must have a twin) was there to greet us at our table. Juice, fresh fruit, coffee and some of the best German Pancakes I have ever had. Ok these were the first ones but still they were amazing. I don't think Molly made them as we could hear her talking to the cook in the kitchen. A+++ at the Squam Lake Inn and many thanks to the great staff for all they put into their day to make ours just right. Dave & Cheryl

We had such a great night at the Squam Lake Inn. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in, and the food was amazing. I keep telling all my friends how impressed I was! We will be back!!!

we knew we booked a smaller room but bedroom was quite small-can't tell from the picture on line. although the bedroom had adequate storage the bathroom was lacking space for storing of bath needs. suggest the installation of hanging wall cabinet to eliminate constant shuttling of things from bedroom to bathroom, breakfast was excellent! general common space in the inn was quite warm suggesting that innkeepers were saving a/c despite the fact that this inn was not inexpensive! overall our stay was somewhat disappointing considering the costs!

Our dining experience for dinner was excellent. The breakfast was pretty poor. We were served orange cream filled French toast with sausages. It was too sweet, more like a dessert than breakfast. The room was very nice and the king size bed was very comfortable.

My husband and I stayed at the Inn for four nights on our honeymoon trip to NH. We have no words to express how much we enjoyed our stay. The staff was amazing and they went above and beyond to make our stay very special. The staff was welcoming, treating us like family. They booked our boat tour on Squam Lake, recommended sites for us to visit and took care of us to make sure we enjoyed our time in the Lakes Region of NH. The food was out of this world! Breakfast , lunch and dinner were able to be made gluten free for my dietary concerns and were all fabulous. Everythingwas fresh and delicious!! There's no need to eat anywhere else. We stayed in the Eagle Nest room which has a fabulous claw foot bath tub, wonderfully comfortable bed and a very serene and quiet atmosphere. The complimentary shampoo, conditioner and lotion are wonderful and are also sold in the Red Barn. We loved it all! We have a five star hotel in our city that we have stayed at before, and we have to say the Squam Lake Inn surpassed that hotel, by far! The service, food, room, staff and atmosphere deserve more stars than we can award. The Inn is close to so much in NH. We hiked, dined, shopped and enjoyed the breath-taking fall foliage by just driving the area. If you are considering staying at the Inn, please book your stay NOW. You will not be disappointed. We plan on returning for an anniversary trip and have passed along the Inn's information to my husband's parent's for their New England trip. I wish there was more we could say to describe how special our time was at the Inn, but we will let you book your stay and experience the Inn for yourself. Enjoy!

My partner and I stayed in a Suite at the Squam Lake Inn in July 2011 and it was fantastic. The people were so friendly and accommodating and everything was immaculately clean. Everyone at the Inn was very helpful in setting up things to do and places to go. Breakfast each morning was homemade, delicious and plentiful. In the afternoons Cindy, one of the innkeepers, baked a fresh dessert for all the guests to enjoy along with complimentary tea and coffee. THE DESSERTS WERE AMAZING!!! We also decided to have dinner one night at the inn based upon numerous recommendations made to us. The food was excellent and the dining experience was relaxed and stress free! We're already planning our next visit.
5 en junio 20, 2011
The perfect choice if you find yourself in the Lakes Region this summer! The rooms are uncluttered and perfectly kept. The breakfasts are to die for and whether you stay here or not, come back for a lunch or dinner. It is the best dining in the area. A few standouts for me were the Turkey & Avocado or Lobster BLT for lunch, and their out if this world homemade ice cream sandwiches. It is a minute lake to the shore of Squam Lake but set away and completely peaceful. A perfect lake getaway!

Stayed 3rd time this past summer, excellent service, staff so friendly and kind. Will go out of their way to help you. Love the Red Barn, get on line soon! Meals are fabulous!

One of the loveliest inns in New England. Operated by an engaging couple who demonstrate both an exceptional level of guest service as well as impeccable property mangement standards, this is the perfect any season get away destination. The inn serves breakfast to guests only with lunch served (weather permitting on a wonderful pation) to both guests and locals. Both meals are not to be missed and feature irrestible menu offerings from chef/innkeeper Rae.

Have you ever actually read the user manual for your smart phone from beginning to end? If you have, you are among millions of others who have found the instructions confusing or difficult to understand. For persons with disabilities, the task of implementing those instructions may be even more daunting.
Fostered by a common objective of helping people with disabilities to use these products, leaders like Microsoft, Nokia, and Research in Motion, makers of BlackBerry products, have recruited the Assistive Technology Partners' product testing lab to aid in the development of user friendly devices.
With 25 years of experience in mechanical and biomedical engineering, Greg McGrew leads this charge in the Use-Ability Partners lab. McGrew has designed, implemented, improved, and delivered assistive technology products and devices for years in order to break down barriers to living independently. Now, with the support of a U.S. Department of Education grant from the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation ResearchNational Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research, McGrew's team is testing the usability and durability of 50 products used by people with disabilities.
Unlike product testing in mainstream markets, assistive technology markets are small. The testing for a microwave oven is different than an assistive technology device, McGrew says.
The focus is in determining how a user interface should be made. By watching real people doing real tasks with real objects, Use-Ability Partners assesses where there are issues with using the technology.
There are factors that might prevent a manufacturer's design from being used by persons with disabilities because they need someone's help to set it up for them. Industry leaders have begun to recognize the importance of technology that is easily used, so this testing lab offers a unique advantage to the market. Most needed by consumers is the lab's "out-of-the-box" usability testing which starts when the UPS truck delivers the product to the user and ends with the user demonstrating they can use the product after using the help instructions provided by the manufacturer.
The lab tests with software from Tech Smith called Morae, which uses computerized webcams to see what is going on. Video analysis and a user interview provide feedback to the industry that make a user experience more satisfying. Each product in the lab is tested on 5-20 users. McGrew cites that there are many connections with mainstream items, the most exciting of which is smart phones with sensitive touch screens.
In one test, a mother of small children was using a programmable audio book. However, the results of the test might extend to touch pad tablets or a Blackberry Playbook.
On the horizon, the lab is slated to test phone apps for persons with cognitive disabilities, a portable Intel reader for the Colorado Center for the Blind, and products for older users to develop an online consumer report and new standards for product labeling.
"This kind of testing isn't being done elsewhere," states McGrew. Although other labs offer some of these services, Use-Ability Partners' product testing lab excels because of its unique industry relationships as well as its ability to make a difference to people who need it the most.

Soldiers Mads and Daniel are stationed in camp Armadillo on the Helmand frontline, fighting battles against the Taliban on a daily basis. Their platoon is stationed there to help the Afghans, but as fighting gets increasingly intense, paranoia sets in causing alienation and disillusionment amongst the troops. War eventually makes these young men pursue their reality-kicks with increasing recklessness.
Created by
We couldn't be too far from a reality-television show about the current wars. Every week our cast of soldiers confronts both the uncertain terrors of combat and the doldrums of downtime. The men would explain war's emotional toll. We'd see firefights. It would all be packaged as a kind of stylized episodic entertainment centered on a digestible conceit like personality or closure. I can't think of a feature-length documentary that has truly trivialized these wars by applying certain reality-show principles — by pushing personalities to the foreground, say. Many nonfiction films about the war in Afghanistan are more drawn to atmosphere and morality than personality or story. Thereness is often the movie's biggest asset.(Full review)

A 1949 photo of the Supreme Council of the Mexican-American Movement is part of a CSUN exhibition exploring the role of Latinos in California history.
A new exhibition at Cal State Northridge takes an intimate look at the role California's Latino population has played in the history and development of the Golden State.
The exhibition, "Cultura y Comunidad: The Legacy of Latino Leadership in California," runs from Tuesday, Sept. 7, to Friday, Oct. 29, in the C.K. and Teresa Tseng Gallery of the Oviatt Library. An opening reception in the gallery is planned for 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 14.
A lecture and panel discussion is set for 1 to 3 p.m. in the library's Presentation Room on Wednesday, Sept. 15. Participating will be Chicano/a Studies Department chair Mary Pardo and department faculty Rodolfo Acuña, Jorge Garcia, David Diaz, Juana Mora and Denise Sandoval. Both reception and lecture are free and open to the public.
Rather than presenting a "monolithic" view of Latino life in California, the exhibition presents the experiences and accomplishments of individual leaders and organizations, said assistant archivist Rebecca Graff, one of the exhibition's curators.
"We want to emphasize the importance of preserving the past through archives, especially for minority groups whose history has been underrepresented in archival collections," added Graff, who works with the library's Hispanic-Serving Institutions Program.
The exhibition will heighten awareness that the library's archival collections are rich sources of primary materials for research, she said.
Drawing from the vast and varied collections in the library's Urban Archives Center, "Cultura y Comunidad" includes documents, letters, photographs, posters and other memorabilia from figures such as Julian Nava, a former U.S. Ambassador to Mexico and a professor emeritus of history at Northridge; CSUN alumnus Frank del Olmo, the late columnist and associate editor with the Los Angeles Times; and Chicano activist Rodolfo Acuña, a CSUN professor often cited as the "father of Chicano Studies."
Also included are materials from the groundbreaking Latino/Chicano comedic theatre troupe Culture Clash; Comisión Femenil San Fernando Valley, an organization that promotes Latina leadership and education; and Mothers of East Los Angeles, a grass roots group that advocates environmental and social justice.
"Cultura y Comunidad" is partially funded through the U.S. Department of Education's Title V Developing Hispanic-Serving Institutions Program.

(WHAS11) - A Louisville project that has been dreamed about and talked about for years, is finally taking shape.
The revival of the Big 4 railroad bridge has a storied past.
At one time, it was going to be a string of shops over the river, even a hotel.
But in reality, it now will become one of the largest pedestrian walkways over water in the United States and WHAS11 found from Sky11, you can spot the progress.
For 80 years, the Big 4 railroad bridge has spanned the Ohio river.
For 41 years, it has sat on our waterfront with no ends, no trains, no traffic.
It is now getting ready to become the longest pedestrian bridge over water in the United States.
And what will make it unique is the way it will connect.
Already you can see red columns are in place.
A concrete ramp on the ground is starting to take shape that as it moves under the bridge; it will swirl upward into the air and sit on top of these red columns. It will connect to the end of the bridge in Louisville, that's how you will walk up onto the bridge.
It's cost $6.5 million, but is designed so emergency vehicles can get up to the bridge.
From there, you will have a one mile walk over to Jeffersonville. That city is also going to add a connection so you can exit there if you want.
The old railroad tracks will be pulled and removed, replaced by concrete.
Right now, grass is growing where trains once ran.
You can also see the blackened tracks where an electrical fire created quite a show just a couple of years ago.
Connecting the bridge has been a dream for decades in Louisville.
And now with a new basketball arena within walking distance from it, also on the waterfront, you can imagine the possibilities when both are open.
In its heyday, the Big 4 carried four railroad lines, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis.
The light fixtures being designed for the slope are unique and locally built.
And GE furnished lights for the entire bridge at a 50% discount for the Waterfront Development Corporation.

"Late Night With Seth Meyers" debuted last night with the perfect first guest — Amy Poehler, Seth Meyers' one-time "Weekend Update" cohost on "Saturday Night Live." These two go waaaaay back — just look at them as wee comedy babes! Given that Amy confirms that she and Seth "could talk all day," might I suggest that she be a regular guest on the show, you know, maybe even a part-time cohost? Not that Seth couldn't handle the job himself, but late night needs more women and these two have such a fantastic rapport. Just something to consider, NBC. No pressure.
