The Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
The Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa combines Victorian elegance with the Disney level of service. The newest Disney Vacation Club Resort brings to mind the beach-going vacationers of the 1890s, who spent their winters along Florida's coast in elegant Victorian hotels. Guests will find the features and amenities they've come to expect with a stay at the Grand Floridian Resort, all within the home-like atmosphere of a Disney Vacation Club Villa.
The rooms at the Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa are spacious and elegant, reflecting the Victorian theme of the resort. Modern amenities abound, such as crown molding, granite countertops, and mirror TVs in each bathroom.

- Cítricos: Citricos is the Grand Floridian's answer to the California Grill. Chic, sophisticated cuisine offered here is a combination of American Seafood and Mediterranean-Florida fare. Citricos offers a wide variety of appetizers such as Pan Seared Quail, Jumbo Lump Crabcake, Warm Onion Tart and Crispy Cannelloni. Entrees include Braised Veal Shank, Seared Tuna, Grilled Filet of Beef, Roasted Duck Breast and Basil Crusted Rack of Lamb. Warm Chocolate Banana Tort, Tropical Fruit Crème Brulee and Seasonal Berry Gratin are a few of the interesting desserts available. Wine pairings may be ordered to accompany your appetizers, entrée and dessert.
- Narcoossee's: The octagon-shaped restaurant overlooking the Seven Seas Lagoon is Narcoosee's and is a perfect place to watch the Magic Kingdom fireworks. You can watch your dinner being prepared in the open kitchen. For dinner, New Floridian cuisine is offered with many delicious seafood delicacies such as Maine Lobster (can also add Filet Mignon to this), Grilled Wild Atlantic Salmon, Coriander Crusted Ahi Tuna, Seared Jumbo Scallops and Pan-Roasted Black Grouper. You'll also find such tasty items as Colorado Lamb Chops, Grilled Filet Mignon and Grilled Free-Range Chicken Breast. A Priority Seating is recommended.
- Victoria & Albert's: The elegant Victoria and Albert's is the signature restaurant of Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. This award-winning restaurant offers fine dining and jackets are a requirement. Open only for dinner, two seatings are offered. The seven course menu varies and is selected daily by the Chef. Some of the Chef's specials feature the freshest in game, poultry, fish and beef. Priority Seating is an absolute must. Guests may reserve the Chef's Table here, where the Chef personally welcomes you into his kitchen, introduces you to the other cooks, and seats you in a special area in an alcove at the rear of his kitchen. A bottle of champagne is served and a toast offered to the guests. Guests may wander about the kitchen, talk to the chefs, ask questions and take pictures, as long as they don't interfere with the actual cooking and serving. The Chef will go over each course and its ingredients with guests. Appetizers, sorbet, portions of each of the evening's entrees, wine and cheeses, portions of the evening's desserts, coffee or tea and chocolate truffles are served to please the palate. As a delightful finishing touch, the ladies are presented with a long stem rose. Menus are autographed by the kitchen staff and given to guests as a memento. Wine pairings may be ordered to accompany the courses for an additional charge.
- 1900 Park Fare: At 1900 Park Fare, 15 feet above the floor, you'll find Big Bertha. This Parisian-built band organ is almost a century old. It will periodically spring to life for your listening pleasure, with pipes, drums, bells, cymbals and a xylophone, lending a festive air to the Character meals offered here. Breakfast features an all-you-can-eat buffet, with fresh fruit, bagels, oatmeal, yogurt, eggs, bacon, sausage, cheese blintzes, omelets, fried potatoes, cold cereals, biscuits and gravy, French toast, waffles, pancakes and baked goods. Entertaining and mingling with the guests are Mary Poppins, Mad Hatter, Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio and Gepetto. Priority Seating is recommended. From 5:15 p.m. until 9 p.m., the Character dinner buffet is offered with unique salads, soups, spoon bread, vegetable dishes, seafood, chicken, prime rib and children's favorites. The dinner hosts are Disney's favorite Princess, Cinderella, and her Prince Charming. Any of the following characters may also be found (subject to availability): Fairy Godmother, Suzy Mouse, Perla Mouse, Lady Tremaine (Cinderella's stepmother) and her 2 stepsisters Anastasia and Drizella.
- Garden View Tea Room: The Grand Floridian Afternoon Tea is offered in the Garden View Lounge from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. with a number of aromatic herbal and exotic teas to appeal to all tastes. Indulge in a centuries old English tradition by enjoying tea sandwiches, scones with delectable Devonshire cream, jam tarts, fresh strawberries with cream, tea pastries and English Trifle. This spot is perfect for dining alone and it is a great Mother/Daughter outing. Most of the offerings are three courses, so be sure to bring your appetite. If you are looking for a unique experience outside of the theme parks, Afternoon Tea is a great choice. Priority Seating is highly recommended for this popular event. Specialty coffees and champagne are also available.
- Grand Floridian Cafe: The Grand Floridian Café is a family restaurant that specializes in Southern cooking and has a lovely view of the pool and courtyard. Lunch features a delicious assortment of soups, salads, hot and cold sandwiches, hamburgers, pasta and catch-of-the-day dishes.
Swimming at the Villas at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa offers two options. If you prefer a quieter setting, the Courtyard Pool, nestled in the midst of this beautiful resort, is perfect. A hot tub is also available to relax in. If you prefer a more lively time, the grotto themed Beach Pool with its slides and waterfalls will more than meet your expectations. You're welcome to head to the private sandy beach where you'll find canopied lounge chairs, but please note that swimming in the Seven Seas Lagoon is prohibited.
A kiddie pool is available for the littlest guests, as well as an Alice in Wonderland-themed water play area. An upside-down Mad Hatter's hat fills with water, then dumps onto guests when it is full. A large teapot pours its contents into a series of teacups that will rain down on the guests below. Two mini waterslides, sprinklers and water spouts complete this play area.
Other water-related recreational activities include rentals at the marina of water mice, sail boats, pontoon boats, pedal boats or water skiing.
Campfire & Movie
Meet on the lawn behind the beach pool for a nightly campfire and movie (weather permitting). The campfire on the beach is at 8:00 pm and the movie is at 9:00 pm.
For those that prefer their sports and recreational activities to be done on dry land, 2 lighted clay tennis courts, jogging, volleyball, croquet, an arcade and the Grand Floridian Spa & Health Club are available. Open 24 hours (with a resort key), the Health Club offers top-notch services with a full range of Cybex cardio-vascular and strength equipment, personal trainers, saunas, steam-rooms, and whirlpools.

Report: Top 20 recruit Robert Hubbs commits to Tennessee
Sep 17, 2012, 9:34 AM EST
Cuonzo Martin has spent all of 18 months on the job at Tennessee, taking over a program that had lost their best players to the NBA after Bruce Pearl lost his job.
But it didn't take long for him to turn things about in Knoxville. Tennessee finished tied for second in the conference last season, as Martin instilled a brand of hard-nosed, defensive-minded hoops, and are among the favorites to battle it out for first runner-up behind Kentucky again this season.
That initial success in the SEC should give Vol fans plenty of confidence heading into Martin's second season on the job, because for the second time in just nine months, he's landed a five-star recruit from the state of Tennessee.
This time it's Robert Hubbs, a consensus top 20 recruit from Dyer County, TN. The 6-foot-4 Hubbs had a huge spring and summer, rocketing up recruiting rankings while collecting scholarship offers from the likes of Florida, Duke, Memphis and Missouri. Hubbs is a big-time scorer from the wing whose range has been lauded by scouts. He committed after a visit to Knoxville over the weekend.
Hubbs joins Jarnell Stokes as Tennessee natives that joined the Vol family. Stokes is a 6-foot-9 power forward from Memphis that enrolled at Tennessee half-a-year early last December. He'll be a preseason all-SEC pick this season in what should have been his freshman year.
The fact that Martin was able to beat out some big name programs for Hubbs is important. There is some basketball talent in the state, especially in the city of Memphis (which is a couple of hours from where Hubbs attends high school), and the more that Martin can tap into that pipeline, the better it will be for the program.
It's also worth noting that Hubbs plays for the M33M AAU team with Austin Nichols, a top 20 recruit that lives in Memphis.

In a dramatic Tuesday news conference, Herman Cain charged that Sharon Bialek, one of several women accusing him of sexual misconduct, lied when she said he groped her 14 years ago. The GOP presidential frontrunner called Bialek's account "baseless, bogus and false," and said Bialek and three other women who have accused him of sexually harassing them in the 1990s are part of a coordinated attempt to get him to abandon his campaign, which he said "ain't gonna happen." Moments before Cain spoke, one of his previously anonymous accusers, Karen Kraushaar, went public, suggesting that all the accusers hold a joint press conference. Cain's chief of staff, Mark Block, dismissed Kraushaar's claims on Fox News by saying — apparently falsely — that Kraushaar's son works at Politico, which broke the story. (A journalist named Josh Kraushaar used to work at Politico, but left for National Journal last year. And he isn't related to Karen Kraushaar.) Is it smart for Cain to go after his accusers so aggressively?
Cain should expose his accusers' questionable motives: "If there is anyone more despised than a cad, it's a gold digger," says Daniel J. Flynn at Human Events. So Cain is smart to fight back against these "amorphous accusations," and against the reviled establishment media trumping up these charges to smear his campaign. Judging by Cain's enduring strength in polls, it's working.
"The Cain mutiny"
Cain's attacks are just giving the story "new life": There is no "grand conspiracy" against Cain, says Andrew Sullivan at The Daily Beast. The only thing these women have in common is that they were "all grossed out by Herman Cain." By claiming the women are out to get him, Cain is only forcing them to "respond to being called liars." So instead of putting the matter behind him, "Cain has just given this story major new life."
"Live-blogging the Cain presser"
Cain's vicious defense will turn off voters: Cain is playing with fire, says Alexander Burns at Politico. The day after Bialek went public, the Cain campaign emailed reporters a detailed account of her "troubled history," including a paternity lawsuit and a bankruptcy filing. Unless Cain "succeeds in completely discrediting Bialek," casting her as "some kind of gold digger" will make Cain look pretty bad, "particularly in the eyes of Republican women."
"Herman Cain campaign launches attack on accuser Sharon Bialek"
And the lies from Team Cain are way over the line: This spectacle would be "pretty funny if it weren't so entirely pathetic," says Doug Mataconis at Outside the Beltway. Consider Mark Block's performance on Fox News. "The guy who is supposedly running the campaign of a Republican frontrunner has gone on television on multiple occasions and blatantly lied." Cain should fire Block immediately. "That this is the kind of person Herman Cain would hire" in the first place "speaks volumes" about the candidate. And the fact that Cain is still leading in the polls "speaks volumes about Republican voters in 2011."

Am I delusional, or did they also make a change where, when I'm playing over a game or using the analysis board, the pieces no longer "slide" from square to square, but just instantly jump to the new square? This makes it harder for my brain to follow what's going on. Change it back please!
Thanks for pointing this too. This is even more irritating. I always liked that pieces slide from one square to the other here as opposed to other sites.
Chess.com please stop changing stuff that is fine and change the things that aren't ok or those that people do want changed!
Here Here, its just too distracting and in your face
Now, in addition to the last move color change it seems the letters and numbers have been moved and there is sort of a back board underneath the board with the chess pieces on it...from bad to worse...
OTB chess never looked so good. Once we understand the previous move, there's no need to be reminded of this in such annoying fashion. It's hard enough to develop depth of thought around a chess board, is this supposed to help?
It (yellow-highlighting) is a probably well-intentioned but totally dumb-idea.
It is very distracting indeed whilst trying to look at online-chess board postions.
This site too often implements things where an "update" is not necessarialy needed. I would think that thoughts of changing something like this would be brought to the community as a question: This is what we're thinking of doing. What do you think of it? If enough members respond that they don't like it, at least make it an option in settings.
Chess.com, I think from now on when I manage an OTB game, I shall highlight every move with a dry erase marker without asking my opponent. It'd be interesting to see their reaction wouldn't it?
if it can be turn off im ok with it , i dont like it either tho
You can turn it off by going to Home -online chess - setting.
I only play on-line (correspondence) so having the last move highlighted is useful.
If they wanted to introduce a new type of hlighting, why didn't they just add it as another option rather than forcing it on us.
The new thingies apply for Tactics Trainer as well! What the..? I feel betrayed! Out of words!
It should be an option for not a complete change. If say 80% are using it consistantly then consider to make a change and remove it as an option.
There are several threads about people not liking this now.
I would like to add that the pieces also move sluggish now. The animation stutters.
I like the change.

3 tips to grow a bold, beautiful backyard
Updated On: Sep 10 2013 09:04:59 AM PDT
(NewsUSA) - It's time to start heralding the outdoors by beautifying the backyard. So, don the appropriate garments, grab some tools and turn your backyard into something ideal for entertaining.
Families love to spend time outdoors -- especially if they have a pool, patio or deck -- so take the time to administer some TLC to the lawn, pool, patio and garden.
The following tips will help you get the most out of your backyard:
1. Grow some privacy. Depending on the size of your backyard, consider installing a fence, arbor, pergola, row of bushes, trees or hanging vines to shelter your property from the neighbors. This helps make gatherings more private and gives your lawn a "secret garden" feel. Plus, a fence, trellis or arbor can offer a wind-break and much-needed shade -- both of which can be key for pools. Flowering vines like trumpet vines, clematis or morning glory attract butterflies and hummingbirds.
2. Get cozy outdoors. If you have unused deck space, create a family-friendly area perfect for entertaining outdoors: cook-outs, lounging, games or parties. All you need is some inexpensive patio furniture -- clusters with chairs and a sofa -- and small tables for surface space. To make it really cozy, add some brightly colored throw pillows and potted plants.
3. Simplify pool maintenance. Family pools tend to make the best summer parties, but all investments include maintenance. Adding a pool cover can reduce pool heating costs by 50 to 70 percent.

Families' grief as MoD admits secretly stashing fallen troops' body parts for forensic tests
- The number of families and soldiers affected is smaller than 60 since multiple samples of human tissue have been retained in each case
- Military whistleblower: 'These have been retained illegally for no good purpose'
- The MoD would not say whether any disciplinary action has been taken
Body parts of British soldiers killed in Afghanistan have been secretly retained by the Army, the Mail can reveal.
At least 60 items of human tissue, which should have been given to families for burial, were stashed away by the Royal Military Police.
The Ministry of Defence last night admitted that material was retained without families being informed, and that officials are now seeking to contact those affected.
Around six major body parts plus 54 samples of tissue on laboratory slides were discovered recently when a new manager was appointed at the headquarters of the Special Investigations Branch of the RMP.
Concerning: British soldiers from B Company, 2 Mercian wait for a helicopter before leaving on an operation in Malgir, Helmand province in 2009
The parts were found at John
Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, and the slides in SIB headquarters at
Campion Lines barracks at Bulford garrison on Salisbury Plain in
Military sources say the find is
evidence of systematic abuse of rules which govern the way body parts
are handled when forensic investigations are carried out on the bodies
of soldiers.
MoD sources said the parts needed to be kept as part of investigations where the SIB need to 'match ballistics' and for the purposes of 'identifying people in the future' – which may refer to matching future body part finds.
But a military whistleblower said: 'These have been retained illegally for no good purpose and should have been buried with their owners.
'There is a strict procedure for accounting for body parts needed for forensic testing, and this has clearly been ignored; it is likely that coroners and pathologists have been misled as well.'
The number of families and soldiers affected is smaller than 60 since multiple samples of human tissue have been retained in each case.
Worry: Lord Dannatt, the former head of the Army, said the allegations were 'concerning'
But MoD officials admit they do not know exactly how many servicemen are involved.
An Army spokesman said: 'There are occasions when it is necessary for the RMP Special Investigations Branch to retain slides of forensic material from individuals killed on operations as part of their investigation.
'However, the RMP identified a small number of cases where this had been done without the correct processes being followed to inform families.
'Investigations are being carried out urgently into this matter. The RMP Special Investigations Branch has also taken swift action to ensure this cannot happen again and are identifying the families affected as quickly as possible.'
The body parts were retained during the tenure of Sergeant-Major Andrew Bishop, who was made an MBE for services to forensic science.
MoD officials said he is now leaving the Army on a medical discharge having suffered post-traumatic stress disorder after attending multiple post-mortem examinations at Bulford.
But whistleblowers say some responsibility also lies with Colonel Len Wassell, who was commanding officer of the Special Investigations Branch between October 2008 and August 2010.
Insiders say Colonel Wassell was Sergeant-Major Bishop's direct superior and should have supervised procedures for the proper handling of any body parts needed for forensic testing.
The MoD would not say whether any disciplinary action has been taken.
But Lord Dannatt, the former head of the Army, said: 'If there are individuals responsible for allowing this type of thing to happen they must certainly be held to account.
'Allegations like these are very serious and there must be an investigation. Everything must be done to see that this type of thing cannot be allowed to happen.'
Major General Patrick Cordingley, commander of the Desert Rats in the 1991 Gulf War, said: 'It is the most tragic mistake and it will cause deep distress to families who have lost loved ones in Afghanistan.'
Shadow Armed Forces Minister Kevan Jones said: 'This is shocking and offensive. People will be aghast that heroic service personnel could be treated in this way.
'We must be given the full details of what has happened. If there has been a cover-up the truth must be exposed and we must establish if any law has been broken.

Lohse retires 23 straight in Brewers win
Carlos Gomez went 3 for 4 with 5 RBIs while Kyle Lohse retired 23 consecutive batters at one point and finished with a four-hitter, lifting the Milwaukee Brewers to a 5-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night.
Cincinnati had three consecutive hits to open the second, but then had 23 batters in a row retired before Jay Bruce walked with two outs in the ninth. The Reds have dropped three of four.
Lohse (10-9) started the season 1-6 after missing most of spring training, signing with the Brewers as a free agent on March 25. Since the slow start, he has gone 9-3.
After allowing three consecutive singles to open the second, Lohse recorded an out on Devin Mesoraco's RBI fielder's choice grounder to third.

A Reading man, already behind bars, has been charged in the sexual assault of a second teenage girl.
Joseph Thomas was first arrested April 4 on charges he sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl he met on a social media website.
Thomas, 24, has now been charged in the sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl he met at a local roller skating rink, said detectives with the Berks County district attorney's office.
Thomas sexually assaulted the girl six times between this past November and March, said officials, adding that three of the assaults occurred at a local park and the others at the victim's home when her parents weren't there.
Thomas also sent the girl multiple pictures of himself naked via electronic communication, officials said.
Thomas, who was already jailed on $500,000 bail in the first case, has had his bail boosted to $1 million because of the charges filed in the second case, officials said.

Miranda Hart announces fitness DVD
A new fitness DVD starring Miranda Hart has been announced.
Miranda Hart's Maracattack is described as "an authentic fitness routine but one that is wholly unique, and skilfully combines exercise and comedy".
Released by BBC Worldwide, the DVD will feature workouts as well as sketches starring the cast of Hart's hit sitcom, Miranda. The product, which will also be available to download in digital format, is set to be released in November.
The comedy star says: "Maracattack is based on one key concept. Fun. For fitness should be fun. Bear with as I coin a compound word - Funness. You will want to exercise. It's about playing, not 'working out' and play helps your body, but also frees your mind. Without giving too much away, it involves maracas, classic pop tunes, and is as much fun as a riotous camp, cheesy disco. There is no need to dread the gym anymore."
Miranda's co-host is fitness expert Amelia Watts. The DVD includes a warm-up, 20-minute cardio session, a 5-minute high intensity cardio routine and 10-minute strength exercises for arms, core, legs and bums. During each workout Miranda and Amelia work at different levels, so viewers can follow either depending on their own ability. Hart's fellow sitcom stars Sarah Hadland and Tom Ellis also join her for some of the workouts, which are conducted to music from the likes of Kylie, Take That and The Monkees.
Inbetween the fitness programmes, the DVD also presents brand new sketches featuring Miranda stars Patricia Hodge, Sarah Hadland and Tom Ellis. There is also a guest appearance from property presenter Kirstie Allsopp.
The BBC says: "With Maracattack, Miranda has created a great comedy DVD as well as a new exercise concept that is perfect for those new to fitness or for those with more experience. It's the new craze waiting to happen."
Fiona Eastwood, from BBC Worldwide, adds: "We are thrilled that Miranda has chosen to release her first comedy fitness DVD with us. This will be the perfect Christmas gift for Miranda's many fans, whilst also providing a great workout for those who have never considered using a keep-fit DVD before."
Miranda Hart's Maracattack will be released on 18th November 2013, with a recommended retail price of £19.99. Pre-orders are now being taken
A fourth series of Miranda is expected, however not for a while as the star is first due to embark on an arena stand-up tour in 2014.

MAA reports 41% jump in net income in Q3
Send this to a friend
- Terry Hollahan
- Editor- Memphis Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | LinkedIn
MAA (MAA), formerly known as Mid-America Apartment Communities Inc., reported after the bell Wednesday a 41 percent increase in quarterly net income compared to the third quarter in 2012.
Net income for the period ending Sept. 30 was $44.3 million, or $1.04 per diluted common share, compared to $30.9 million, or $0.74 per diluted common share a year ago. Net income included $28.8 million, or $0.67 per share, related to gains on the sale of apartment communities and $5.6 million, or $0.13 per share, related to merger expenses incurred during the period. A year ago, net income included $16.1 million, or $0.37 per share, related to gains on the sale of apartment communities.
Funds from Operations, or FFO, a performance measure commonly used by real estate investment trusts like MAA, was $50.1 million for the third quarter, up from $48.2 million in the third quarter of 2012. Core FFO, which excludes merger related costs and other non-cash expenses, was $55.4 million, or $1.25 per share, up from $49.3 million, or $1.14 per share in the same period of 2012.
MAA completed its merger with Colonial Properties Trust on Oct. 1, so results do not reflect the performance of the combined companies.
"We are pleased with results for the quarter as core FFO per share was at the top end of our guidance range," Eric Bolton, chairman and CEO of MAA, said in a statement. "With our merger transaction now closed we are fully focused on capturing the opportunities surrounding the combination of MAA and Colonial Properties Trust. Leasing activity was strong during the third quarter with the MAA same-store portfolio occupancy at 96.3 percent at quarter end and the Colonial same-store portfolio at 96.4 percent."
Guidance for the year includes three quarters of stand-alone MAA operations and the fourth quarter of the combined companies. Merger costs are expected to be about $60 million total, the company said, with about half that cost recorded in the fourth quarter.
Memphis-based MAA expects Core FFO to be about $1.14 per share in the fourth quarter, a quarter which includes Colonial Properties Trust operations, and full-year Core FFO at about $4.86 per share.
