This taste exquisite! Thank you for sharing.Raquel - 2013-01-17 12:33:35
All comments are good. However, ginger is a BLOOD THINNER. If you drink it every day and accidentally cut yourself, your cut will keep bleeding and not clot properly. For years, I suffered from acid reflux and in desperation one day I made ginger tea and noticed how it helped my digestion. Naturally I began drinking a cup of this tea with every meal. After several days, I accidentally cut my thumb and it would not stop bleeding. I reviewed what I had done differently and realized I drank 3 cups of ginger tea daily for my digestive problems. I stopped drinking the tea and my blood began to clot normally and the cut soon healed. Incidentally, when I stopped eating gluten and dairy products from cow's milk, the acid reflux stopped.shana - 2012-11-23 23:45:46
When using for a cold or flu symptoms, add a dash of cayenne pepper and juice of 1/2 lemon for the entire batch. I usually grate the ginger, or save the peel when making other recipes. I also like the way ginger helps my brain for concentration, so I drink a cup when I study or am reading technical material. Also great for nausea!Dr. Wanona - 2012-11-23 21:16:23
Question: Why only 2 cups ginger tea? I drink ginger, grapefruit juice, bragg vinegar daily. Happy Holidays. Brooke I enjoy and learn from your sites. Thank youBrooke - 2012-11-23 16:34:54
When I am in a big hurry I just poor hot water over crushed up ginger and add a little lemon and honey. Most wonderful drink when you are sick or have a little belly ache.Rebecca MacIvor - 2012-07-30 15:01:26
Our family makes a very similar tea. We use 10 to 12 slices per 2 cups of water. We also enjoy simmering it with organic orange peel and whole star anise which adds a natural sweetness. We always add fresh lemon juice at the end. Sometimes we use cinnamon sticks as well, 1 per 2 cups of water. I recommend this tea to anyone under the weather and it always seems to work like a charm.Denise - 2012-01-29 01:59:23
I wanted to know the thing. Why only a 2 cup a day limit?Shirley - 2012-01-28 17:42:52
I grate ginger, add to water and put in microwave for a few min; 2 for a cup, longer if making a few cups. Add lemon and honey, cures my husbands upset stomach.Anonymous - 2012-01-28 13:49:05

FedFirst Financial Corporation Announces Third Quarter And Year-to-Date 2012 Results
FedFirst Financial Corporation (NASDAQ Capital: FFCO; the "Company"), the parent company of First Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), today announced net income of $649,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $290,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $359,000 or 123.8%. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.23 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $0.10 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $0.13 per share or 130.0%. The Company reported net income of $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $804,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $895,000 or 111.3%. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.60 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.28 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $0.32 per share or 114.3%.
"While the uncertain economic environment and intense competition create challenging headwinds, we are very pleased with the strong results we posted this quarter," said Patrick G. O'Brien, President and CEO. "Net interest income edged down slightly, but we were able to balance the reduction in the loan and investment portfolios with modifications to our deposit rate structure and pay-offs of borrowings that allowed us to achieve a net interest margin that was consistent with the prior year. Noninterest income increased over the prior year primarily due to higher income from our insurance activities, and adjustments to our compensation arrangements and branch structure reduced noninterest expense."
Third Quarter Results
Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $56,000, or 2.1%, to $2.6 million compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Paydowns and payoffs of higher yielding loans and securities resulted in a $404,000 decline in interest income. This was partially offset by interest rate reductions on deposits that resulted in a $238,000 decrease in deposits expense and payoffs on borrowings that resulted in a $110,000 decrease in borrowings expense.

Over the years, more seniors and old age people falling in the age group of 50 to 80 years have started practicing Yoga than what we used to witness 10 to 15 years ago. Seniors are more aware about their physical and mental health now than they used to be before. Medical advancement in the past few decades has certainly extended the average life span of most of the people born in last 3 or 4 decades but it has exposed us to new health challenges with deteriorating life standards and styles of modern times. Oldies are finding themselves in the middle of new chronic health issues where conventional modern medicine has disappointed them.
Holistic Yoga therapy and practice gives a new ray of light to all the Old bones. The safe, slow and steady Yoga practice builds the core muscle strength and joint mobility for the seniors along with giving a chance to find peace and happiness. Seniors are more informed about the prevention of disease and are aware that Yoga and Meditation provide a holistic approach to health, focusing on the mind-body connection.
Level 1 : Yoga exercises of the "Yoga After 50″ are exercises that are "Good for Everybody" regardless of age or degree of fitness. These movements mobilize the joints, strengthen and give flexibility to the muscles, improve circulation and breathing and enhance the ability to relax.

Level 3 : Introduces Surya Namaskara with basic standing, seating and meditative poses along with advanced pranayama and breath controlling, balancing techniques. Last but not least, meditation will be taught with easy and simple techniques for increasing focus and self realization.
In a nut shell, "Yoga after 50″ program will be a life transforming experience for you where you would redefine the meaning of health, vitality and spirituality for yourself!!!

Real Madrid took a giant leap towards reaching the Champions League semi-finals for the third consecutive year as they thrashed Galatasaray 3-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu.Cristiano Ronaldo got the hosts off to the perfect start as he calmly chipped home from Mesut Ozil's wonderful through ball after just nine minutes.Karim Benzema then doubled Madrid's lead on 29 minutes with a simple finish at the back post from Michael Essien's cross and Gonzalo Higuain headed home the third 17 minutes from time to seal a highly satisfactory evening for the hosts.Galatasaray manager Fatih Terim had signalled his intent to attack by naming the trio of Wesley Sneijder, Didier Drogba and Burak Yilmaz in his starting line-up.However, as a result the Turkish champions gifted way too much for Madrid to create in midfield, with Ozil in particular shining in the first-half.The German international set-up the opener as he received Xabi Alonso's pass before turning and feeding Ronaldo to dink the ball over the advancing Fernando Muslera for his ninth Champions League goal of the campaign.Drogba nearly produced an immediate reply for the visitors as he spun Raphael Varane on the edge of the box, but with a clear sight of goal the Ivorian lashed wildly wide of the target.
Real advantage
Sneijder also fired wide from 20 yards as Galatasaray went in search of the away goal.
However, that was opening up gaps that Madrid love to exploit on the counter-attack and from another sprightly break Ozil forced Muslera into a good low save.
Drogba did hit the target with another long-range strike that Diego Lopez could only turn behind for a corner and Galatasaray had a good claim for a penalty turned down when Sami Khedira appeared to handle inside his own area.Yet, they were still struggling to cope at the back and went further behind when Essien's cross just evaded Ronaldo but fell perfectly for Benzema to slot in off the near post.The tie was virtually killed off by a third Madrid goal 17 minutes from time though as substitute Higuain glanced home Alonso's in-swinging free-kick.And Galatasaray's night was summed up when Yilmaz saw a yellow card for diving when he was challenged by Sergio Ramos, meaning he will now miss the return-leg on Tuesday.
In the other Champions League quarter-final, Malaga held on to draw 0-0 with Borussia Dortmund thanks to an inspired performance by goalkeeper Willy Caballero.Dortmund's high-paced attack led by Mario Goetze and Robert Lewandowski produced several scoring chances for the German champions, but their lack of finishing touch and Caballero's saves let the hosts keep their seventh clean sheet in 11 games.Malaga will have a slight away-goal advantage when they visit Dortmund for the return leg on April 9.Dortmund remain unbeaten in the competition this season, while Malaga are yet to lose at their La Rosaleda Stadium in their first appearance in Europe's top-tier tournament.

Re-built on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Used worldwide. Hear it for yourself vs a '70's U 87.

You own the NT5 - now you can upgrade them. Listen to the samples or write to me to learn how the MJE-384K capsules will make your NT5 mics sound better than stock.
New Michael Joly Engineering MJE-384
A complete set of world-class small diaphragm mics – only $699.
Whether it's a pre-production mic shoot out test or hit-bound recording session, the MJE-384 matched stereo pair delivers the sound you need at a price you can afford. In a direct comparison on drum overheads, the MJE-384 has been chosen over Schoeps CMC6 / MK4 by the session drummer. In a direct comparison on acoustic guitar, the MJE-384 has been preferred by session guitarists over the KM 184. Listen for yourself – open, natural, relaxed, true-to-life plus a touch of top end air and sparkle. Write to me to learn how the MJE-384 compares to my well-known modified Oktava MK-012.

Record an acoustic guitar track, then reposition for male or female vocals. Classic LDC sound and vibe on both takes. Move it into position as part of a Glyn Johns-style three mic set up for drum overdubs – hear punch, clarity and shimmer with no top end harshness. Hear it vs. the current industry-standard Neumann U 87ai.
Hear clear and open sound - the MJE Hulk 990 features a single layer headbasket (the classic AKG C12 was a single layer headbasket mic) to avoid the coloration effects heard with multiple layer headbasket mics.
Welcome note from Michael Joly -
You need classic microphone sound, right? Hear new modified microphones, after-market microphone modification services for your mics (we do the work in our shop - no DIY risk!) and my own Michael Joly Engineering mics vs. the classics.

Ps - Whether you're interested in a new mic or a microphone modification service performed in our shop your purchase is RISK-FREE. Just write and I'll tell you exaclty what that means in your particular case. Best, Michael

Title: Good for dress up
Date: Sep 28, 2012
Good ring for dress up. Hard to size. It is adjustable, but I could not just squeeze it to make it smaller. Had to get a pair of pliers to squeeze it. Guess that means it's a little better quality, but you can't adjust it easily.

Lanna style in North Thailand
Looking around Chiang Mai's accommodation offerings it's clear that for anywhere with pretensions above standard Thai hotel style or backpacker guesthouse chic then Lanna style is flavour of the month — or decade. But what is it? Good question. Historically and culturally Lanna refers to the northern Thai kingdom, founded in Chiang Saen but for much of its incarnation centered around Chiang Mai, and which lasted from the 13th to 18th centuries. So most older buildings, principally wats, are classified as Lanna style.
For some, it's a mere marketing ploy — a concrete block with a couple of antique-ish wood carvings on the wall might lead some hotels to claim a Lanna title, while some go totally to town on it and end up resembling a Lanna-style wat — Rachamanka is a case in point, where you could easily think you've walked into an impeccably manicured Chiang Mai temple (or museum) instead of an upmarket hotel.
For most hotels, it means buying a job lot of reconditioned teak, lots of whitewash, a few ferns and palms and some objets d'art — ideally of a Buddhist nature — on said whitewashed walls. Oh, and dressing the staff up in what might pass for traditional northern Thai attire.
When it's well done, it can look great: tasteful, elegant, classy and certainly better than knocking up a concrete block. See the lovely Lanna swimming pool below at The Rim Resort.
Though we did think perhaps the resort went a bit OTT on their spectacular entrance gate:
It's easy to be cynical but it's a beautiful resort, with lush gardens, whitewashed stone walls and rooms tastefully finished off in wood, reconditioned teak and decorations — but there are a lot of places around like this. We reckon Tamarind Village would have been one of the first in downtown Chiang Mai to adopt the style, and their success certainly inspired others to follow.
An aside: Apparently even our townhouse is now Lanna style. It was just a regular concrete townhouse when we bought it but my wife decided to add a few traditional touches.
Now, locals and visitors alike often walk past saying, "Ooh, look at that Lanna-style townhouse!" and take photos. Some even come in to ask how much for a spa treatment. Or do we have rooms? Yes, that's how popular the style has become. You've been warned.

Sergio Garcia Watch
Sergio Garcia, P.G.A. all-star and Spanish import, stopped by the Omega store in New York City yesterday to donate his personal Omega wristwatch for display. Before giving a clinic to some mini-putters, the pro sat down with us to talk watches and why he was really in the city. "I'm definitely going to the Open," Garcia said, referring to the annual tennis—not the golf—tournament. "I'm a huge tennis fan." Naturally he'll be rooting for fellow Spaniard, Rafael Nadal. "Rafa is an incredible player. I have to keep it local."
Garcia can definitely relate to Nadal for being in the sports spotlight at a young age. After going neck and neck with Tiger Woods in the 1999 P.G.A. Championship at 19, Garcia was the youngest player in history to participate in the Ryder Cup that same year. As the latest Omega ambassador, he is in fine company with Michael Phelps and Buzz Aldrin, who have donated their signature watches, too. "It's a good fit, and they never break," Garcia says of the watches. Time does fly when you've logged the number of hours he has on the course. And what's a better accessory on the tee box, next to a consistent drive, of course?

On June 14th, the National Research Council (NRC) Committee on Research Universities and the Board on Higher Education and Workforce released a report titled Research Universities and the Future of America: Ten Breakthrough Actions Vital to Our Nation's Prosperity and Security. The group was chaired by Chad Holliday, Chairman of the Board of Bank of America and Chairman and CEO of DuPont, and included scientists from research universities and industry. Senators Lamar Alexander (R-TN) and Barbara Mikulski (D-MD), (now retired) Representatives Bart Gordon (D-TN), and Representative Ralph Hall (R-TX) requested the report as a follow-up from the National Academies Report Rising Above the Gathering Storm: Energizing and Employing America for a Brighter Economic Future.
The 227-page Research Universities report is intended to answer the question "what are the top ten actions that Congress, the federal government, state governments, research universities, and others could take to assure the ability of the American research university to maintain the excellence in research and doctoral education needed to help the United States compete, prosper, and achieve national goals for health, energy, the environment, and security in the global community of the 21st century?"
The Research Universities report focuses on issues including research and doctoral programs, basic and applied research at research universities, doctoral education and the pathway to research careers, fields of study and research that are critical to helping United States competitiveness, an assessment of the capacity of research universities internationally and a vision of the long-term mission and organization for these institutions.
Prescient and deliberate policies at the federal and state level have allowed US research universities to emerge as a national asset. "In global rankings, U.S. research universities typically account for 35 to 40 of the top 50 such institutions in the world. Since the 1930s, roughly 60 percent of Nobel Prizes have been awarded to scholars at American institutions."
Though this is the case, the NRC found many challenges faced by universities. The report discusses financial problems faced by research universities including that "each of their major sources of revenue has been undermined or contested. Federal funding for research has flattened or declined; in the face of economic pressures and changing policy priorities, states are either unwilling or unable to continue support for their public research universities at world-class levels; endowments have deteriorated significantly in the recent recession; and tuition has risen beyond the reach of many American families. At the same time, research universities also face strong forces of change that present both challenges and opportunities: demographic shifts in the U.S. population, transformative technologies, changes in the organization and scale of research, a global intensification of research networks, and changing relationships between research universities and industry."
The report includes issues faced by universities as they partner with the federal government, states, and businesses. The issues identified include unstable federal funding, eroding state funding, the dismantling of large corporate research laboratories that were key players in American industrial leadership in the 20th century, and the need for universities to improve relations with stakeholders.
Another set of issues identified in the report deals with the effectiveness of universities regarding doctoral education, efficient administration of research, and effective movement of the pipeline of students as they leave the universities. Some of these concerns identified by the NRC include insufficient opportunities for young faculty at the start of their academic and research careers, international competition, underinvestment in campus infrastructure, insufficient funding from research sponsors, burdens in regulatory requirements, a need to improve doctoral and postdoctoral career training, and a need to improve programs that increase the success of female and underrepresented minority students.
The NRC report focused on ten recommendations to best leverage research universities to ensure they are productive and have access to proper resources that allow for innovation and effective partnerships with businesses. Each recommendation was followed by budget implications and expected outcomes.
The conclusion of the report emphasized the importance of the role of research universities:
"It is essential as a nation to reaffirm and revitalize the unique partnership that has long existed among the nation's research universities, federal government, states, and businesses and industry. The actions recommended will require significant policy changes, productivity enhancement, and investments on the part of each member of the research partnership. Yet they also comprise a fair and balanced program that will generate significant returns to a stronger America."
A hearing on this report and the perspective of the research university community was held in the House Science, Space and Technology Committee on June 27 and will be the subject of a future FYI.

Between the ages of 40 and 50, the lens of the eye begins to gradually lose elasticity. This makes it harder to focus for close-up activities such as reading. As you get older, the lens of the eye also becomes thicker and yellower. These changes may affect the way you see colors and contrast. For instance, the color blue may appear darker and harder to tell apart from black or green. As the eye ages, the pupil gets smaller. This means that you need more light to see well, along with more time to adjust to changing levels of light (going from daylight into a dimly lit room, for example).
You may have low vision even though you do not have medical problems such as cataracts or glaucoma. However, if you notice any change in your vision, you should have an eye exam as soon as possible.
It may be harder to tell lighter colors from darker colors. You may have a hard time recognizing even the people who are most familiar to you. If you cannot see someone's lips, it may be harder for you to communicate if you are also hard of hearing and so rely on reading lips.
Get regular eye exams so you can get help for any vision problems you have. There are aids and tools you can get that will help you read, write, and manage daily living tasks. You can try magnifying aids, audio tapes, electronic reading machines, and computers that use large print and speech.
Less than perfect vision does not have to hamper your lifestyle. Here are some simple changes that may help:

Quintus Curtius Rufus
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (November 2010)
Quintus Curtius Rufus (/ˈkwɪntəs ˈkɜrʃiəs ˈruːfəs/) was a Roman historian, writing probably during the reign of the Emperor Claudius (41–54 AD) or Vespasian (69–79 AD). His only surviving work, Historiae Alexandri Magni, is a biography of Alexander the Great in Latin in ten books, of which the first two are lost, and the remaining eight are incomplete. His work is fluidly written, and while superficial study reveals the author's errors regarding geography, chronology and technical military knowledge, a detailed study reveals his focusing instead on character and protests against those Emperors of his times whom he considered tyrants. Despite the fact that much of the information we have on this ancient historian is relatively obscure, significant evidence suggests that he suffered one of the earliest known cases of conjunctivitis. Several scholars argue that it was because this went untreated that he succumbed to an early death.
Curtius' Historiae Alexandri Magni enjoyed popularity in the High Middle Ages. It is the main source for Walter of Chatillon's epic poem Alexandreis.
Historical value of his work[edit]
W. W. Tarn slated him for his "complete lack of historical principle" — a view that John Yardley suggests has a lot to do with how Curtius discredited Alexander.[1]
Historical novelist Mary Renault, in the preface to her biography of Alexander Fire from Heaven, discusses the various sources which she studied in preparation for her work, expressing considerable exasperation with Curtius who "had access to invaluable primary sources, now lost", which in her opinion he misunderstood and garbled. Historian B. A. Bosworth defends Curtius against some of these charges in a general article about the veracity of ancient Greek and Roman historians, "Plus ça change ... Ancient Historians and their Sources" (Classical Antiquity vol. 22, No. 2 (October 2003), 167–198).

The manager, Trudy, goes out of her way to meet the guests and goes the extra mile to make sure their vacation is everything they hoped for.
The rooms are very comfortable - not luxurious but very clean, modern and well maintained. The food is very good with a variety every meal. You have a choice of at least three entrees and they are well-prepared with great presetation.
If you are looking for a relaxing atmosphere with a staff that is dedicated to making your stay enjoyable you need look no further.
Would never stay here again! Go to Divifrom A TripAdvisor Member
We arrived at the airport only to ifnd out that we had to wait 20 minutes for the so-called shuttle to take other people to Brac Reef in a rickity old van. Then when we arrived, there was no one standing at the Front Desk so we had to go to the bar just to get someone's attention. Turns out that the Front Desk person was int he dining room getting food. (not to mention it took about 6 minutes for the "bartender" to stop tending to their friends and turn and speak to us.
After being checked in (and might I add that this place doesn't confirm anything, they just ask for a credit card (which they don't even swipe but take an imprint and ask you to sign a blank slip (not very secure if you ask me) and when I refused to do this (who wants to give someone your signature on a black credit card slip now adays), they hummed and hayed and had no idea waht to do (lack of training and experience I think).
We finally were given the key to our room, which we had to carry our luggage and gear up the stairs (no elevator). the room to say the least was atroshious! there were cockroaches under the bed, it smelled like someone had spilt dirty water on the carpet and left it for weeks, and the decor itself was very outdated! The only good thing was that the AC worked. But the view (please don't ever believe these people when they tell you that all their rooms have an ocean view (because they don't). Note: if you go and tour around Divi you will see that their rooms are right on the water and all have an unobstructed view).
At this point all we wanted to do was eat. Well needless to say, we should have taken the advise of some people on the plane and gone elsewhere for dinner. The food was, well lets just say that if you want bland, unappealing looking and *the same every night almost* you are fine but if you want what you pay for with the Meal Plan, you are gonna lose your money.
We decided to order off the bar menu (little better but not much) and while we were sitting at the bar we met Sarah and Marc who were two of the dive staff. They are a fabulious pair and gave us so much information about the island, things to do, where to go and diving. Thumbs up!!
The next day we went diving, which was wonderful, but our understanding is that Reef Divers is not owned byt he "resort" so that would make a lot of sense. All of the dive masters are great but Mark out does himself.
After we returned to the hotel we were tired and wanted to relax. So much for swimming at this resort, unless you want to swim in a pool that is open to the public and all their kids. there is no shore swimming at this place which was disappointed. so we laid on the hammocks and enjoyed some cocktails.
I wanted to really realx and I had read other reviews online about their Canadian massage thereapist but when i inquired at the front desk, I was told by the girl that he was no longer there but she could fit me in as she worked both the spa and the desk. There was something about her that I didn't like, after I asked if the other man was still on the island and did he have his own spa, she got a little snippy with me so I just walked away. It turns out this rude younge lady is the Assistant Managers wife!
I called oevr to Divi Resort to see if they had a therapist and their front desk informed me that they did not because they too had used this Canadian Man. So I was out of luck (turns out unless you want to use the rude little lady, you are out of luck in the spa treatments)
Dinner that night did not look appealing either so we decided to walk up to the Captains Table where we were told had the best food on the island. And they do. A bunch of people we had met that day had told us it was because they had a younge creative chef from Canada, whos last week was that week because he was going over to Divi Resort. We ate ever dinner meal at the Captains Table because it was amazing.
We learned our lesson on this trip about what you get for what you pay for and we will never pre-order the Meal Plan until we arrive at a new resort and see the meals first hand.
We were going to bring all of our disappointments up to the Manager Trudie but we had over heard her complaining about some of her own staff members to the bartender and decided that she would not care and that she herself was unprofessional so we decided to take it to the masses instead so that other people like us will not be so disappointed in Brac Reef Beach Resort.
We were going to cancel the rest of our trip and move over to Divi after having spent a few hours over there at their great bar and walking their grounds but the guy at the front desk told us we would not get our money back so we toughed it out but as soon as we returned home, we called Divi and booked out next trip with them.
Where did you stay, This was greatfrom A TripAdvisor Member
First, if you have a non-diver with you, read this - Us three divers brought our wifes and kids and for them it was a tough week. We caught some rough weather, which eroded what was a dive biased week. Thank goodness the staff is spectacular and the food was even better or I may never get to dive again. My wife (and tghe 2 other non-diving wifes) were ok with a dive vacation because we were basically trapped by our airline after our GC house was flooded (not their fault, so no changes without penalty.) As long as they could siton the beach and swim in the pool, they were fine. Unfortunately, the wind was so strong on some days that a walk on the beach was painful and the pool was frigid. Neither of these things are controllable by the resort, so I can't penalize them at all. What helped make up for it was a staff that was always trying to help, i.e. getting ice cream when there wasn't any on the menu. Big kudos to Mary, the owner (decendent of Keith Tibbets) who came with here 4 year old grand daughter, for packing up our wifes and kids and taking them on a small tour and to the playground near the airport. There were a number of nice touches, like kareoke (sp?), movie night, and a fun New Year's Eve party.
First off food - I came prepared for decent food being that this was a "dive" resort. Well, it was spectacular. Starting with the lobster we had the night we arrived. Which, by the way, they held for us, since we would up on a later flight (this was Xmas day.) And ending with a NYE's feast of sushi, steak and caviar. And desserts that made you get seconds and thirds. I asked Mary about it, because there were some "iffy" reports on their food. She told me that they let go of their chef back in October and the two cooks below him blossomed.
Rooms - better than decent, but not four star. We had two full sized beds, color tv, full bath and a balcony (we didn't have one the first two nights but they moved us once one was available.) Out of the fourty rooms, there are about 10 with balconies. All are in a cresent around the pool. There are no bad rooms because the resort is pretty small. However, there are no elevators, so keepit in mind if stairs are a problem. Also, there is coin-op laundry there, which came in really handy. The one negative was ants (which seems to be a problem they are aware of because every room has bug spray) and hot water. There weren'tenough ants to bother me but enough for my wife. As far as hot water, if you showered at 5:30, like everyone else, you had a warm shower at best, other than that is was hot. I mentioned to them, they could decrease water consumption with better hot water equipment, just because guests wouldn't run the shower as long to get it hot.
Non-dive activities - mopeds, tennis, basketball, board games, bar (bar menu available after 12 but not included in meal plan), rock painting (to leave a marker that you were there, really fun), lots of hammocks, sea kayaks, snorkling (don't think there is much to see), pool and hottub (which was broken.) There was dock with a gazebo for massages but it has to be rebuilt after Ivan. They also have a spa on premises for massages, etc. There is also an internet center for .25 Ci per minute. If you want to rent a car, there is a rental place down the road. Make sure you plan ahead if it is a busy week, this was xmas and there no cars available.
Resort Staff - I am bad on names but everyone was great. Trudy at the front desk really goesout of here way to help, with anything, including Cayman Air, who has a habit of screwing up reservations, it seems. Facilities were over attentive at times. Almost every day I came back to towels in a bag on our door, not sure why.
Ok, now diving: Great. I have been to a place that treats you like this. When you arrive there is a mesh bag in the room and form. You fill the bag with everything but your mask and computer and leave it outside your door at 7. The first day you bring the form, cert card and credit card to the dive shop. After that, worry free diving. If you shop, they kinow you by name and note it on your record. When you arrive on the boat, your gear is set up. If you move things around, they realize it and keep it that way for the week. The dive staff are really there to take care of you. You get a full safety and routine speech on your first dive and then great breifings for each dive. The dive briefings were great. I have never seen a DM go into the detail on their map before. Multicolor, near topographical, maps with sites to see. Even movable objects (fish) were were they said they would be. They give a profile for computer and tables (when there was only one person diving tables they gave her a computer.) There are two staff members on the boat, one leading a tour and one on the boat. The only problem with this (but I don't know if I would ask them to change it) was that they help everyone on with their gear, then get in the water, which can be a long wait if you are taking the tour. Then they head back to the boat first to be ready to receive the returning divers. If you are unsure on your navigation, which got me on the second day, you can find yourself a little uncomfortable. I have to say my skills went way up after the long swim back to the boat. If you are inclined, buddy up and explore on your own. It took me to the end of the week to get comfortable enough with this but since the walls run east west, navigation wasn't too tough, even for the navigationally challenged. Back to the diving: when you are ready to get in the water you just sit on the bench and they bring your gear to you, when you come out they take it off and put it on the next tank. I had a hard time getting used to this. I really felt like I kept forgetting something because I had so little to do except dive. Very luxorious though. The boats are beautiful, by the way and fully stocked with snacks, oranges, fresh water and dive supplies (vinegar, defog, etc) The reefs are what you expect for one of the best places to dive in the world, full of life and color. There was so much to see that I spent most of my time looking for Flamingo Tongues and Nudibranchs. It was like sensory overload. i shot 300+pics of everything from nurse sharks, rays, giant eels, giant lobsters, crabs, huge sponges, a melting sand castle coral (have to find out the right name) I can tell you more than go and see for yourself.
I can't rommend this place enough. I met people that have been there 15 times. That says alot. I will definately return and I generally don't go back anywhere because the world is a big place and I want to see it all. I will put up pics soon. Hope you found this helpful.
Where did MOST of you stay?from A TripAdvisor Member
Feels like Home Away from Homefrom TravelerKen
We did 17 dives with Craig & Vicki (Mark was with us one day) and only 4 were "repeats". Even those were great because we saw things we didn't see last year (for one thing our skills are much improved). For example, we did lots of penetration on the Keith Tibbets this year and none last year. I can't speak highly enough of Reef Divers -- they are incredible to dive with. We did some brand new sites this year including Elkhorn Forest that hadn't been dived in 3 years (I hope Ivan didn't do a number on the Elkhorn).
We love the Brac Reef Resort -- the smallness and nearness of everything, the pool, the amazing friendliness and helpfulness of the staff (!!!!!), the pier at night (tarpon always and one night squid), the hammocks, and the food. The food isn't "gourmet" but is quite good and varied. Meals are included and it's so nice just to come in and sit down at lunch or after a day of diving.
Over the course of a week, you'll get to know most of the guests -- at least those on your boat.
Basically, you eat, dive, dive, eat, dive, hit the pool, get a shower, eat, sit around talking, hid down to the pier, sleep and then Repeat each day for 6 days.
We have also enjoyed getting around the island to see the sites (especially the bluff and caves), meet the locals, and visit Stake Bay Baptist church (one of 10 Baptist churches on the island). The bluff and caves are great. Daily car rentals are cheap and just down the street from the Brac Reef (they'll come get you and take you to get your car).
If you love no-hassle beautiful diving and a quiet friendly resort, look no further!

Top Local Tips for Cayman Brac
customs/food When you arrive in Grand Cayman, I would highly suggest bringing a folding cooler and filling it before your trip over to Cayman Brac. Grab things like snacks, fruit, lunch meat unless you are on a meal plan, and anything else you can not live without.
What to bring Pack light and casual, bring a book, maybe some snacks if you have room and want to munch between meals. Be prepared to slow **way down** and relax. You'll only need a watch to make your dive boat departures and meals.
Work the Air Schedule Cayman Airways charges excess baggage weight for more than one bag or a bag that weighs over 50 pounds. The only way to avoid this is to take the 737 jet, but it has terrible schedules. For better connections try to find a flight to Grand Cayman on an airline other than Cayman Airways and then coordinate with Cayman Airways turbo prop to get to Cayman Brac.

Wovoka – Paiute spiritual leader and creator of the Ghost Dance
|Northern Paiute
|c. 1856
Smith Valley, Nevada
|September 20, 1932
Yerington, Nevada
|Jack Wilson
|Known for
|Spiritual leader and creator of the Ghost Dance
|Resting place
|Schurz, Nevada
Wovoka (c. 1856 - September 20, 1932),[1] also known as Jack Wilson, was the Northern Paiute religious leader who founded the Ghost Dance movement. Wovoka means "cutter"[2] or "wood cutter" in the Northern Paiute language.
Wovoka was born in Smith Valley area southeast of Carson City, Nevada, around the year 1856. Wovoka's father may have been the religious leader variously known as "Tavibo" or "Numu-Taibo" whose teachings were similar to those of Wovoka. Regardless, Wovoka clearly had some training as a medicine man. Wovoka's father died around the year 1870, and he was taken in by David Wilson, a rancher in the Yerington, Nevada area, and his wife Abigail. Wovoka worked on Wilson's ranch and used the name Jack Wilson when dealing with European Americans. David Wilson was a devout Christian, and Wovoka learned Christian theology and Bible stories while living with him.
Wovoka gained a reputation as a powerful medicine man early in adulthood and is now perceived to have been adept at magic tricks. One feat he often performed was being shot with a shotgun, which may have been similar to the bullet catch trick.[3] Reports of this feat potentially convinced the Lakota that their "ghost shirts" could stop bullets. Wovoka also performed a feat of levitation. One of his chief sources of authority among Paiutes was his alleged ability to control the weather. He was said to have caused a block of ice to fall out of the sky on a summer day, to be able to end drought with rain or snow, to light his pipe with the sun, and to form icicles in his hands.[4]
Wovoka claimed to have had a prophetic vision during the solar eclipse on January 1, 1889. Wovoka's vision entailed the resurrection of the Paiute dead and the removal of whites and their works from North America. Wovoka taught that in order to bring this vision to pass the Native Americans must live righteously and perform a traditional round dance, known as the Ghost dance, in a series of five-day gatherings. Wovoka's teachings spread quickly among many Native American peoples, notably the Lakota. Wovoka's vision brought about the question of his sanity[citation needed].
The Ghost Dance movement is known for being practiced by the victims of the Wounded Knee Massacre; Indian Agents, soldiers, and other federal officials were predisposed towards a militaristic posture when dealing with a movement that was so antithetical to their views and ideas. Wovoka's preachings included messages of non-violence, but two Miniconjou, Short Bull and Kicking Bear, allegedly emphasized the possible elimination of whites which contributed to the existing defensive attitude of the federal officials who were already fearful due to the unfamiliar Ghost Dance movement.
Wovoka died in Yerington on September 20, 1932 and is interred in the Paiute Cemetery in the town of Schurz, Nevada.[5]

John Danks has another rough outing in White Sox' 11-4 loss
BY DARYL VAN SCHOUWEN Staff Reporter September 3, 2014 10:44PM
Related Stories
Updated: September 6, 2014 1:01AM
MINNEAPOLIS — John Danks got roughed up for seven runs on 11 hits and failed to finish the fifth inning Wednesday, and the Minnesota Twins defeated the White Sox 11-4 at Target Field.
Danks, whose ERA climbed from 4.75 to 5.12, hasn't won since July 25 and has two wins in his last 12 starts. This one started badly, as the Twins got him for three runs on five hits — including four for extra bases — in the first inning.
Danks threw three scoreless innings after the first and the Sox were within 3-2 after Dayan Viciedo hit his second homer in two nights in the fourth inning, but the Twins scored five in the fifth inning to break the game open.
Making his major league debut, lefthander Scott Snodgress gave up a 429-foot home run to Twins cleanup hitter Kennys Vargas in the sixth inning. Immediately after a 16-minute rain delay, Vargas had singled in the go-ahead run against Danks.
Viciedo, who has 19 homers, had two hits and three RBI. Jose Abreu had two hits in three at-bats to raise his average to .322.
The Sox (63-76) are off Thursday and open a three-game series in Cleveland on Friday.
