CHICAGO (December 11, 2012) The prevention and control of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) can help reduce patient morbidity and mortality, but a common prevention effort for patients with hard to treat infections known as contact precautions, can have positive and negative impacts on patient care. A new report published in the January issue of Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology, the journal of the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America, found when patients with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and other antibiotic-resistant bacteria are isolated in the hospital, these contact precautions reduced the number of visits by healthcare workers and outside visitors, but also increased compliance with hand hygiene upon exit of patients' rooms.
Contact precautions are infection control measures that require patients to be isolated in their own room or grouped with patients colonized or infected with the same multidrug resistant organism like Clostridium difficile or MRSA. Healthcare workers and visitors must wear gloves, gowns, and other protective equipment while with a patient on contact precautions.
Over a 19-month period, researchers conducted a prospective cohort study observing healthcare worker activity at four acute-care hospitals in the United States where trained observers performed "secret shopper" monitoring of healthcare worker activities during routine care using a standardized collection tool and fixed 1-hour observations periods.
Contact precautions were found to influence the actions of healthcare workers. Patients on contact precautions had 36.4 percent fewer visits from healthcare workers (2.78 visits/hour for patients on contact precautions and 4.37 visits/hour for those not on precautions). The difference was most evident among physicians and other providers, but less so in nurses. Importantly, healthcare workers were 15.8 percent more likely to perform hand

Attorneys for Gov. Jan Brewer told the Arizona Supreme Court Monday the justices have no legal right to overturn her decision to oust Colleen Mathis as chair of the Independent Redistricting Commission.
Joe Sciarrotta Jr. and Lisa Hauser pointed out in legal filings that the Arizona Constitution specifically gives Brewer the power to remove any commission member, contingent on getting the consent of two-thirds of the Senate.
"This constitutional commitment to the governor and Senate renders this court incapable of doing anything other than substituting its judgment for that of the governor as to when 'substantial neglect of duty' or 'gross misconduct in office' have occurred,'' they wrote, citing the ground Brewer used to fire Mathis. That, the lawyers said, makes it a political questions which "dictates that the judicial branch stand aside,'' with any decision to intercede being "judicial second-guessing.''
Whether the justices believe that, however, remains to be seen. The court is set to hear arguments next week on the commission's contention that Brewer and the Senate exceeded their legal authority.
The more immediate question is whether Mathis can continue to serve in the interim. That would allow her, if necessary, to cast the deciding vote on adopting controversial new maps for the state's 30 legislative and nine congressional districts.
Brewer has publicly said she believes the lines on the draft maps adopted last month were not drawn in a fair manner. The governor believes replacing Mathis as chair with someone else, who is required, like Mathis, to be independent of either political party, will result in different maps.
All that is why her attorneys told the justices that if they decide to intercede in the dispute -- and believe Mathis should be allowed to remain a voting member in the interim -- they should at least block the commission from giving final approval to any maps.
"Obviously, the concern is that if you allow the chairman to remain, they can vote and adopt maps,'' said gubernatorial press aide Matthew Benson. "Once those maps are adopted it becomes a magnitude more difficult to get them un-adopted.''
While Mathis' status remains undecided, a special screening panel took the first tentative steps Monday toward finding a replacement.
Chief Justice Rebecca Berch, who chairs that panel, told members that once Brewer fired Mathis, the Arizona Constitution provides only a 30-day window to nominate three people to fill the spot of the politically independent chair. The four remaining commissioners -- two named by Democratic lawmakers and two by Republicans -- must select from that list.
Berch said the fact that the commission is challenging Mathis' firing -- and that Brewer's decision may be overturned -- is irrelevant.
"It is not ours to judge whether there's an appropriate vacancy, whether the reason stated (by the governor) are adequate,'' Berch said. "We assume others will be litigating those matters.''
Because she chairs the screening panel, Berch will not participate in the Supreme Court hearings on the firing. Retired Justice Michael Ryan will sit with the other four existing justices.
Applications from those who want to replace Mathis are due this coming Tuesday. But there were indications at Monday's meeting of divisions within the panel of exactly what is and is not important in a nominee.
That issue surrounds the fact that Mathis, in applying last year, never disclosed that her husband, Christopher, was being paid as treasurer of the reelection campaign of Democratic Rep. Nancy Young Wright of Tucson. That fact, discovered later, led to charges that while Mathis was registered as an independent, really was a Democrat.
Michael Rusing, a Tucson attorney who is a member of the screening panel, said it might be appropriate this time around to inquire of applicants about the political activities of their spouses.
"I hate to do that,'' he said. "But it's apparent that that seems to be relevant.''
That brought an angry reaction from screening panel member Charie Wallace, superintendent of the Santa Cruz Valley High School District, who said she and her husband have been registered in different parties.
"My spouse can give to whatever political campaign he wants to,'' she said.
"And I can, too,'' Wallace continued. "But I am highly offended, if I was interviewing for a position, and they started asking me about my spouse and his qualifications and his background.''
Berch said that the activities of spouses may provide some indication of whether an applicant is truly independent of either major party. But the chief justice, a Republican with a Democratic spouse, said she personally will not be making such inquiries.
"I've been married for 30-plus years to a person who's of a different party,'' she said. "He does his thing, I do my thing.''
The chief justice said she will not bar panel members from asking applicants about spousal activities. "But I can assure you, we'll be asking it of all the men, too.''
Rep. John Kavanagh, R-Fountain Hills, who attended Monday's hearing, said even that may not be enough. He told panel members they need to dig deeper into the backgrounds of applicants to ferret out people who really are not as politically independent as they claim.
"Some people who are highly partisan register as independents because they don't want people to know what party they're in for personal reasons,'' Kavanagh said. "Others for business reasons don't put it down (because) they don't want potential clients to know their background.''
He said screening panel members need to look for "other signs of partisanship'' like whether they make campaign contributions about equally to candidates from both parties.
"But if a candidate is independent but for the last 10 years or so gives to Democrats or Republicans, I think you have a partisan hiding in independent clothing,'' Kavanagh said.
Berch said the constitution requires only that applicants for the independent position not have been registered with either major party for at least three years. But she said the panel's staff does check out the political contributions made by applicants.
She also pointed out that the applications of anyone who wants the job will be posted on the panel's web site. Berch said that will give anyone a chance to come forward and testify about information that needs to be made public about would be redistricting commissioners.

Romantic Vacations Guide > Destinations by Month > Vacation in January 2015
How about lounging by the sea at a fabulous resort?
by Arnie Jacobsen, Editor
Updated: September 13, 2014
You must be one of the fortunate few that can jet off for a relaxing vacation in January. Right after the holidays and just before the next holiday is a great time to go. You are bound to avoid most of the crowds.
Trying to make a decision about where best to go can be a bit trying.
Let's face it, we tend to fall into two groups, don't we? Those that lust for warm and tropical beaches so that they can escape old man winter. For them, heading to warmer regions is the only possible answer.
But, there are also many who embrace the cold and love to take off to the many fabulous ski resorts available.
Which vacation in January is best for you?
Our list will give you a look at both possibilities. No matter, a hot time is surely in your future.
I get it, you are tired of suffering through the bleak winter months, and long to dig your toes into the warm sand of a tropical beach paradise during your vacation in January. You need to pack your boardshorts/bikini, and sunscreen and head for the sun.
I think you'll find that we can recommend a few really great warm weather destinations for your vacation in January that are sure to earn a top spot in your memory book.
Are you looking for a warm weather destination with brilliant white-sand beaches for your vacation in January? How about we throw in a little something different to boot? How about a multicultural experience. At no added expense, of course.
St. Martin ~ St. Maarten is an island in the Caribbean that offers you just that! This place will give you an experience quite unlike any other. Fine food, great party scene, shopping, white beaches, tropical rain forests, amazing caves, and so much more.
The north side of the island is French speaking, and the south side is Dutch. But, you needn't be alarmed if you speak neither as the official language is English on the Dutch side at least. And, English is widely spoken everywhere.
A word about those beaches I mention earlier. If you are bringing children, or if you are a little on the sensitive side when it comes to skin, choose the beaches carefully. Clothing is merely a suggestion.
When to go, you ask? January is a great time to go. Average temperatures in the low 80s. This is called the dry season and rainfall on average is about 2.0 inches for the month. And, you will have missed the possibilities of hurricanes as well.
Are you ready to go yet?
Check out these Special Offers for Your Visit to St Martin/St Maarten
Below you will find a few recommendations for great romantic hotel options:
As regular readers know, we absolutely love, and prefer small boutique hotels over the large mega resorts. Why? Because, you get closer, more personal, experience. Often, you get to know them as well as they get to know you.
It is impossible, when you speak of Le Petit Hotel, not to become over zealous with the use of superlatives. It is that good! Gracious, exceptional, exquisite, intimate, blissful, modern and comfortable.
Situated right on the beach in close proximity to many great restaurants, this 10 room hotel will pull you back to the island, and the hotel over and over again. Managers Remy and Yamina will make you feel part of the family.
With the limited amount of space available to me here, I can not possibly do just to this fabulous place. You will need to check it out and decide for yourself.
Find out more on Le Petit Hotel.
Bonne vacance, mes amis.
Look at the scene above! Imagine you room on the edge with a view of the ocean or the marina! It's hard to conjure up a more exquisite setting.
This little slice of heaven offers a secluded getaway from the shopping and nightlife areas, yet is just a short drive away so that you can enjoy the action when you want and have peace too.
Find your serene getaway with white sand beaches to loll away the day, take in the breathtaking views offered from just about every angle, and take in the fullness of life offered here.

If you are looking for someplace new to go and visit then maybe your vacation in January should take you to New Zealand. Famous photographer Trey Ratcliff moved here from Texas for a reason. That reason is the incomparable beauty.
You will find here a country that offers one of the most diverse landscapes of in the world. All in a tiny little package that is relatively easy to see. From snow-covered mountain peaks to rich, lush forests, to fabulous beaches, New Zealand just might become your favorite vacation spot. And, who knows, maybe you'll decide to move here, too.
For more on New Zealand Vacations including places to stay and things to do.
With temperatures ranging from 75 to 85 degrees in January, Belize is the perfect destination for escaping North America's harsh winter conditions. When you arrive you'll find its Caribbean coastline, soft sandy beaches and coral reefs great for activities on or in the water at one of its luxurious beachfront resorts.
And, if you are looking for more inland adventures, investigate the lowland forests and Mayan Mountain peaks. Belize has no shortage of fabulous things to see and do.
Ah.... Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. A little bit of paradise. January is one of the most pleasant times to enjoy a lovely temperate climate. During January in the Dominican Republic daily temperatures tend to vary from about 70 degrees F (21 Centigrade) to around 82 degrees F (27.8 Centigrade). Just about perfect wouldn't you say?
When looking for a beachside winter escape, fantastic soft-sand (like that found especially at Punta Cana) is at the top every persons list. This is easily one of the best beach vacations in January.
Now, keep in mind that winter is high season in the Caribbean. And, the Dominican Republic is a hot destination with new resorts popping up everywhere, offering lots of new romantic accommodations. One last thing to consider is that there are many hot deals, too. A stay at an all inclusive resort offering you a Dominican Republic - Punta Cana Vacation could cost you less than many of the other Caribbean Islands.
We can't possibly overlook one of the most popular tropical locations in the U.S., Key West, Florida! This island oasis is most popular in January, so it is crowded and full of fun, but it also means you need to be planning ahead a bit. Key West has a subtropical climate, with an annual daily average temperature of 78 degrees, and dry winter seasons. Winters are pleasant and warm with clear skies.
Staying in Key West is varied. From little to large, your choice is as varied as the Key West lifestyles. Your fabulous Key West vacation may be at one of the all inclusive resorts on the island, like:
Snowboarding in Norway

For those among us that love the snow and being outdoors in it, there is nothing better than a trip to a world class ski resort. Imagine finding yourself at the top of a run looking out over a majestic sun drenched mountain with freshly groomed runs.
Or, sitting out on the deck at the lodge with the aroma of barbecue wafting through the air. Then again maybe relaxing in front of a flickering fireplace, eating elegant meals by candlelight, taking a horse-drawn sleigh ride, enjoying a couples spa treatment and sharing beautiful mountain vistas with your significant other really appeals to you. Welcome to a fabulous winter vacation!
Whistler/Blackcomb Mt. - At the top of many peoples short list of ski resorts that are an absolute must visit, this resort was recently named to the top spot on Skiing magazine's best North American resorts list. It is a huge place with over 200 runs, and the village is world renown for its atmosphere.
Crested Butte, Colorado - This is considered by many the "anti-resort" as it has worked hard to try and avoid the glitz that surrounds many of the bigger, flashier resorts.
Butte experience. Award-winning wine bars mingle with cook-your-own hot dog stands. Five-star lodging overlooks local hangout shacks in the woods.
The apres-ski scene is rich at the resort's base, especially in spring,
when lounging is best on the numerous large, sunny decks. Just down the
road, the National Historic District of the town of Crested Butte bursts
with charm and authentic Wild West." Simply a great place for a ski vacation in January.
Sun Valley, Idaho - We would be remiss if we left out what is the oldest and possibly grandest of the North American ski resorts. Built in 1936, Sun Valley "exudes restrained elegance with the traditional Sun Valley Lodge, village, steeple, horse-drawn sleighs and steaming pools. Sun Valley does low-key with perfection".
Sun Valley was, and still is, where the stars would come out and play in the winter for a great vacation in January. The mountain and the town of Ketchum at its feet have a history and an atmosphere like no other.
I can't wait to read your January Vacation tip, review, or story! Thanks so much for sharing.

2000 Cadillac DeVille Question: How to bleed the coolant system in a 2000 Deville
Best Answer
Oakman September 09, 2010, 17:11Master
Once the thermostat is open your 2000 Cadillac DeVille should do a pretty good job of bleeding it self. If the thermostat does not open you can try the following. Fill the cooling system to the full mark on the overflow bottle. Run the engine until warm, about 240 degrees. If the cooling fans are on and blowing cold air then air is trapped and the thermostat is not open yet. In that case turn the engine off and wait about 30 minutes. This will allow the heat in the engine to spread evenly and allow the thermostat to open. Once the thermostat opens you can top off the coolant bottle to the correct level. When the cooling system is full and the thermostat is open the cooling fans will blow warm air when running.

I never use (alpha/beta graded or) unstable plugins, and the reason is that I

even after an upgrade, and in that respect, I find LinuxDSP, Fons Adriansen,
Tom Szilagyi and Invada trustfully and they also have an extreme high level on
quality and reliability on everything they do. I suppose that several others
who make plugins also have this qualities, but this "gang" above pretty much
covers up my needs. Another common thing with my core plugins is that they
works in intuitive and musically ways, I do in general not have to think about
parameters and other flow-killing stuff, I just turn knobs or drag slides
until things sounds good.
I do test plugins very seriously when I have good time and many of for example
the CALF ones sounds promising, I might consider some of them if they also
comes in mono-version, but "under development" and "stereo only" are show
stoppers for me.

After transfer from your hotel in Sharm / Taba / Dahab we crossTaba border at 05:00 AM and drive along the Arava highway to Jerusalem, We start our tour with a panoramic view of the holy city, Jerusalem, from the Mount of Olives. A leisurely walk takes us down, through the holy Jewish cemetery, to the "Garden of Gethsemane" with its "Church of all Nations" and ancient Olive trees, almost 2000 years old! We continue to the "Wailing Wall", the last remnants of the holy Jewish Temple, and, conditions permitting, visit the Temple Mount itself, where we can see the Muslim Dome of the Rock and Al Aqsa Mosque.

This day is dedicated to the New City of Jerusalem. We visit the Model of Jerusalem in the Second Temple Period, located in the Israel Museum. This is a 1:50 scale model of the city, as it was during one of it's most important periods, when Judaism and Christianity, as we know them today, started to evolve. The model is built from the original materials, and is updated according to the most recent archaeological researches. We also visit Yad Vashem, the memorial of the holocaust, the famous "Menorah" (Candelabre) located in front of the "Knesset"-Building, housing Israel's Parliament, and the "Shrine of the Book", where the "Dead Sea Scrolls" are exhibited. In the afternoon we take a leisurely stroll through the picturesque village Ein Karem, where according to local tradition John the Baptist was born. O/N Jerusalem.
Day 3
Day 3:
We drive down to the Dead Sea, the deepest place on earth, We walk through the Oasis of Ein Gedi, known since the days of King David. Ein Gedi, where four springs with fresh water meet the desert sun, is a place to enjoy the rich and unique flora and fauna that such an oasis can offer. We walk to the waterfall and back to the bus.We will not miss, of course, some floating (not swimming!) on the Dead Sea, famous for its healing qualities. Than we continue to climb (by cable-car ) the famous cliff-fortress of Massada, where Herod the Great built a magnificent palace in the middle of the desert. Massada was then used as a fortress by the Jewish "Zealots" who fought, few against many, against the pagan Roman Empire. Their heroic struggle became a symbol for the modern State of Israel.. transfer to Taba border, cross the border and transfer back to your hotel in Sharm / Taba / Cairo / Dahab.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Couldn't ask for a better location and friendlier staff when visiting Positano! Great views and a lovely market right across the street for water, snacks, wine, and beer.
Pool area is rather buggy.
View Location Ambiance Thursday night Pizza Live music on Thurs & Sat Staff Massage
Mattress way too hard; they offered to change the mattress, but for two nights it wasn't worth it.
The location of the hotel was perfect. After we upgreded our room (we get superior room instead of standard room), we have breath-taking view from the room. We can use the old timer of the owners, and our tour on the Amalfi coast was one of the best experience of my life.
The staff at the restaurant should have been more polite at a 4 stars hotel (The waiters and waitresses were borned their duty so much at the breakfast time...)
Location, view, pool, breakfast, staff, room. Great way to relax in Italy, lovely food, the staff were so friendly, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and will be back again in a couple of years.
There was nothing to dislike about this hotel.
The location, breakfast, pool area were very nice. Room was disappointing. Too much street noise. Also ants the 1st night. Think if you stay there book the best room they have.
Loved the location, Friendliest staff we've seen in a long time
This is a charming old fashioned hotel. Very clean and comfortable, friendly staff and only a 10 minute walk to the beach. Perfect.
Absolutely fell in love with Positano, and Hotel Poseidon was a great choice. Beautiful view, staff were wonderful spoilt for choice at Breakfast. I will definitely be back.
Staff were superbly welcoming and friendly. We loved our stay at Poseidon. Would stay there again without hesitation.
Furniture could be more updated.
Everything exceeded expectations.
Having to leave.
We were upgraded to a beautiful suite with an amazing view of the sea and Positano. The evenings on the terrace with live music are truly magical.
The bar service on the terrace in the evenings
Location was perfect. Staff was exceptional, their customer service was above and beyond my expectations. Would definitely stay here again.
Location to town convenient for walking. Quality and presentation of food Pool and patio area Charm
We liked the staff hospitality, always very nice and helpful. They gave us good tips for restaurants and excursions. A nice surprise was the bottle of Prosecco offered. We could leave the car in front of the entrance and they would park it ... and return it very quickly when needed. Excellent view on the sea and Positano, 5 minutes walk to the beach taking the stairs. Excellent breakfast with high quality products and nice music entertainment in the evening. High ceilings, lot of volume and charm.
Our room gave on the street going down the village and except for Sunday morning it was very noisy starting 6am. For a hotel this price I would have expected a much better insulation. Given the situation of the hotel, the swimming pool was in the shadows at 4pm already. This early September. Bathroom average for the price, the bed was relatively hard.
From the front desk staff, to Bebe at breakfast and dinner, to the spa, all were excellent. We would definitely stay here again!
The staff were outstanding - friendly and efficient a great combination. Well located within Positano.
WIFI connectivity extremely poor. I recommend they change providers. Meginetpos - their service provider - didn't do it for us!
Rooms good Food good Location good Staff good Very accessible to the sights of Positano and the Amalfi Coast and staff very helpful in settling you in. Could do with an improved lunch menu however. Otherwise the hotel is a good hotel to stay at provided it stays exclusive.
Found out that the hotel opens up its pool to outside guests at euro 20.00 a day for them to use. So you turn up to the pool area some days and there are no beds to lie on, and you have to find space to sit and relax if you want a pool day. On our second last day we found 3 Aussie backpackers who were using the pool and were using the showers to wash and change, then sit outside and do makeup and all that. It was incredibly distracting and inappropriate, especially when you are paying over euro 350 a night for the privilege and exclusivity of a four star hotel. If the hotel keep doing this, they will destroy their reputation in Positano. They need to stop this practice and keep it to hotel guests only.
The location was superb, away from the core of Positano but close enough to walk comfortably. Our room had a magnificent view and breakfast was excellent.
The lift did not get to our room so there were an extra two flights of stairs to climb. After a walk back from Positano centre this was always an extra unwanted effort.
Great location, with excellent dining options nearby, good connections to public transportation, and care-free parking services. Breakfast with a stunning view was also a very nice plus. Nearby staircases to the beach were convenient and easy to find. The room was dated, but still rather charming.
Sleeping with the patio doors open, street noise was a bit intense in the early hours, mostly from the shop across the street. I would suggest closing the doors at night.
Great views, rooms and staff.

Historical Traveler Reviews Seaside Grand Hotel Residencia Maspalomas
Comfortable hotel for doing nothing
This is a very comfortable hotel. The food is excellent, as is the service. There is a lovely pool. Breakfast and dinner is served on a verandah in the open air overlooking the pool with a view of the mountains. Lunch (very reasonable) is served by the pool. There is a wellness centre with a sea water pool, steam, sauna, treatments etc.
A few words of advice. Firstly, my wife and I booked a standard room and got about the worst room in the hotel. We did not know that there were, in fact, two grades of standard room and ours was the lower. We could not upgrade as the hotel was full The rooms by the pool are much the best. Secondly, the beach and Maspalomas itself are not that nice. That's OK if all you want to do is to sit by the pool, swim, eat etc without venturing out. That also is OK if (as it was with us) the weather is good. However, if the weather had been bad, I think we might have got bored and frustrated. Thirdly, this is not a place to bring children. They will probably get bored and will disturb the predominantly middle-aged and elderly clientele reading books by the pool.
Overall, however, to be recommended for a short break (week probably long enough) for a chill out and pampering.
Value for money
Great Hotel,
Nice staff, ideal for a short trip, food was excellent. We were with a baby of one year, no problems altough we don't recommend it for children between 2 and 12 years old
An oasis of refinement and pleasure
We have just returned from two weeks in the Grand Residencia and are still feeling both "chilled" and cossetted. It was the most relaxing and comfortable hotel which fully deserves its five stars. The efficiency of all the staff, be it in reception, the bar, the restaurant and the rooms, was faultless. Nothing was too much trouble, everything was done with willingness, smiles and humour. The fittings throughout were of a high standard and everything worked - not always the case in 5* hotels! The spa and treatments were fantastic. I had a bad fall but a therapeutic massage soon put me right. The rooms and bathrooms are spacious and beautifully appointed and two chocolates each arrived each day, together with fresh fruit which was replenished each day.
The food was fantastic. We ate from the set menu because it was so varied and interesting, the menus having been carefully thought out. I have dietary requirements which were always looked after beautifully with the minimum of fuss and without me having to remind people all the time. All in all, a really great hotel that we would go back to.
Relaxing and luxurious!
We stayed in the Grand Hotel Residencia for a week on a half-board basis at the end of February. This is a fantastically luxurious hotel with a spa and beautiful pool area. It is located 5 minutes from the beach but believe me, you will spend most of your time lounging around the pool! This is perfect for couples wanting to relax completely for a week. Most of the guests are older so if you're looking for activities such as dancing, sports, etc. this is definitely not the place to go. The same advice is for families with small children or singles. You may find this boring! However, if you plan to eat well, sleep, lounge by the pool and just relax, this is definitely the place for you. The service is excellent, the staff is very friendly and the rooms are spacious and luxurious.
Simply lovely!
First, I want to apologize for my English. I wil try to say it the best I can. We have had the most wonderfull holiday of all. It was the most quiet, peacefull, luxurious, friendly, discreet ... holiday since our last 6 years. Because I work in school during the year, we try to make a choice out of quiet, luxurious and when possible small hotels without too many children.
We have stayed in a lot of peacefull hotels over the last years, but not like this one. The hotel is marvellous and we have never experienced such a friendly service before. The food is excellent. In the morning you have a really large cold and warm buffet and even the eggs with bacon you offer at the buffet, are being served by the waiter at your table, with an extra glass of champagne. Two times a week you have an extra afternoon coffee or teabreak with pastries, without extra charge. And on friday evening the hotelmanager offers you free aperitives before dinner. Dinner itselves
(4 course gourmet dinner) is really excellent. Coffee, after dinner, is included at the bar (again without extra charge). Every day you get a free newspaper in your own language (just ask it at the reception). The pool is also really lovely. Quiet and peacefull too. There were only a few people in the water every day ( no screaming children!). The pool-attendants were very friendly. They serve you 2 towels per sun lounger. There is also waitress-service at the pool.
The rooms are very clean and romantic (kolonial style). We booked a standard room wich was as beatifull as the suites (we have been in one of the suites). So, it is not necessary to book an upgrade. In the room there was fruit and a bottle of water every day. Twice a day the maid changes towels. You have all the luxury you want, such as; TV, CD-player, DVD, minibar, safe ... In the bathroom, which was also very beatifull, you have a variety of amenities. We also had a cosy terras.
The hotel has a large Spa too. We haven't visit it because we were short of time. We rented a car for 4 days to explore the island and the time that was left, we used to relax at the pool.
There is so much more to say about this hotel. Go and see it yourself.
We are definitly going back!
Haven of calm and luxury
My wife and I made our scond successive visit to this hotel over the Easter period. I only go to the best, so that is why I returned. The standard rooms are superb. They are spacious with every modern amenity. The best rooms, in my opinion, are on the first floor overloking the pool. You can opt for rooms overlooking the lagoon, not part of the hotel, or the dunes.
The impressive factor is the cleanliness. If the staff have nothing to do, they clean. Nothing is too much trouble for the guests. It is German owned and managed. However, all nationalities are welcomed equally.
The food is the best on the island, and the best I have had anywhere in Europe. Buffet on three nights, with live cooking; Gourmet four course table d'hote the other nights. As a bonus coffe is included. You soon get to the stage where you do not need to sign for anyhting, the staff can be trusted to do it right. At least twice a week there is a bonus of afternoo n tea.
The pool area is about to be enlarged, but they are closing for three plus weeks soon to do that without hinderance to the guests. The pool is climatised and rarely full. Good to go for a morning swim when you will find snacks and coffee for when you get out. No screaming children, but gentle clam, where you can be left alone. Ideal for famous people, as no one would cast more than a second glance.
I cannot praise this hotel highly enough. It functions as well full as part full, which is rare. But don't get stuck there, the mountain scenery is just fantastic
A haven of luxury
As the owner of a busy country hotel, I was looking forward to some well-earned R & R, and I definately found here at the Residencia. Its a small property with lovely cactus gardens and its just a short stroll to the fabulous sand-dunes of Maspalomas. There is a lovely walk along the new beach promenade of Meloneras, with some great designer boutiques and caf�s.
Decoration is colonial style, and reminds one of the old-fashioned spanish haciendas. Our bedroom looked out over the dunes and being located away from the pool meant that we had total privacy.
As I needed a rest, we didn't go out and about too much. I was happy just lying by the pool (after the most fantastic buffet breakfast-served til 11am, what a bonus!), a few tapas for lunch, more lying around and then the most fantastic food in the restaurant. Dinner was sometimes a set menu with choices, or a barbecue buffet - no ropey steaks or sausages here. I'm talking fillet steak and giant prawns, and masses more. I hear that they're due for a Michelin inspection (so the food must be good!!)
Service is discreet and gracious. Nothing is too much trouble, and I have to say that I enjoyed the way that the guests tend to keep to themselves. And there were no families with screaming kids around.
If you go, the spa is a must - really reasonable prices and my wife was absolutely ecstatic with the Rasul bath (mud peeling and rain from the stars apparently!). All in all a fabulous recuperation and we will definately be back for more!
A disappointment
Having read the two previous reviews, I was greatly looking forward to a stay at the Residencia. Unfortunately, the hotel I stayed at seemed to bear litle resemblance to those described in the reviews. First the good news! The rooms are beautifully appointed, the reception area spacious, the reception staff professional and welcoming. If you like nouvelle cuisine, you will enjoy the restauarant too. In fact its what you would expect of a five starred luxury hotel.
Now the bad news. The hotel was full when we stayed there, and contrary to the impression given by the photos, is actually quite congested. This may not bother you greatly, but one of the reasons I stay at 5 star hotels is for space and privacy. The hotel offers neither of these, being built on quite a small area. (In fact the hotel recognises that its somewhat cramped and intends to buy more land on which to build some additional pool space. So if you are thinking of staying next year, you might like to check when the construction will take place.) It has very limited grounds and has the misfortune of being located in a rather dated area of Maspalomas.
However, my main gripe was the low level of service in the restaurant. It simply wasn't the standard I'd expect of a hotel with this rating. Having complained to the restaurant manager twice, and seeing no improvement, I was forced to complain to the hotel manager. I subsequently found out out that at least two other people had complained, and one (a seasoned traveller) had even gone so far as to complain to the hotel group's marketing director!
It seems that the standards have fallen in quite a short space of time, since some of the complainants had had stayed there previously, and were dismayed by the degradation in service quality. Overall, it's the "weakest" luxury hotel I've stayed in. (ps I didnt have a bath in my bathroomeither, only a shower!)
Discrete luxury
My husband and I stayed here for a week during august. It was fabulous!
If you are looking for a small (Leading Hotels of the World) luxury hotel who knows how to spoil their guests then this is the place to go.
We arrived late at night; reception opened fresh champagne for us to relax with whilst checking in. On arrival in our room we found lobster salad as a little light supper!
We had a standard room facing away from the pool. Our little terrace was so private that we sat out in the evening with no clothes on! The room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Plenty of hanging space; the usual TV, table and chairs etc. The CD player was a nice touch so remember to pack a few of your favourite romantic CDs.
Bathroom was lovely and all sorts of complimentary toiletries, robes and slippers. Lots of huge fluffy towels.
The restaurant was superb. We were a little worried that half board was only �14 p/p per night. This was undoubtedly the best bargain we've ever found on holiday!! EAT HERE you will not be disappointed. Food is innovative, beautifully presented and tastes delicious. BBQ night is a couple of times a week and they are superb. This is BBQ Grand Residencia style: lobster, gambas, fillet steak etc etc not a burned sausage in sight!
We did plan to eat a la carte but the table d'hote was so good we never bothered.
The brochures stated that "jacket is required" but my husband never wore one and most other guests whilst smart were equally casual. Perhaps in the winter months it is different.
The restaurant is upstairs and the view from the terrace is of the mountains and the setting sun. Very beautiful both morning and night.
One can go to breakfast as late as 11am, perfect if you like a lie in and the choice of food is again superb. Forget the diet, just enjoy.
All the staff here are excellent and speak english and german. The guests are of various nationalities including many spanish.
The pool is a delight; there are plenty of lovely teak loungers and the pool man will bring you an umbrella each and plenty of huge towels.
There is a small pool bar which serves light snacks at lunchtime and the bar staff will bring drinks so you never have to leave your sun lounger!
There is a lovely little spa here.
The hotel does not have a seaview but it is only 5 mins walk to the dunes at Maspalomas and the cafes and shops on the promenade. The hotel is set in the grounds of a 1000 year old oasis and many of the original huge palms have been incorporated in the grounds and layout of the hotel. The evenings are lovely with lots of beautiful parakeets fluttering around (very little noise!)
The entrance to the hotel is very simple but don't be put off once inside it is an oasis of calm with beautiful decor throughout.
If you want to totally relax this is the place. I really cannot praise it enough. This is not a hotel for children (there were a few when we were there) and there are no kids' clubs or activities for them. This is very much geared up for adults and noise is discouraged....hallelujah! Apart from that the clientele were of all ages from young honeymooners to older couples. We all had one thing in common we enjoyed ourselves!!
Not cheap but worth every penny and we would definitely return.
We normally choose 5 star hotels and have stayed at Le Toueserok, Mauritius; Royal Mirage, Dubai etc etc and the Grand Residencia can certainly compete with them any day.
Marvelous Oasis of Luxury
We went to the Canaries (Tenerife, Lanzarote and Gran Canaria) and Marbella in the South of Spain for our honeymoon. It was all fantastic, but this hotel was a godsend. It was truly marvelous. Small, luxurious, glorious and absolutely beautiful and tranquil. The staff caters to your every need, the pool and grounds are in absolutely pristine condition not to mention the rooms are luxuriously appointed and immaculate...and the restaurant is to die for - 4 course gourmet succulent meals. Truly a special place - perfect for a romantic get-a-way...no kids please!

Leith is a up and coming area, a bus service now stops outside these aaprtments, but yes there is a lot of building work in the area, so be prepared. Unfortunately the apartments were not very clean, the cooker was greasy, the floor/carpet was dirty.The tap in the kitchen was loose, the shower door was broken, the plug mechanism on the bath was broken, these faults were reported on our first day, but not fixed in our 2 week stay. The apartments themselves are of a good size in a nice area but they seem to be deteriorating quickly,which is a real shame,I could not rate them as 4 star accommodation, more 3, sorry.Review by: Craig Edwards

The staff were very helpful. the apartment required more cooking equipment and mirrors. they are in the early stages of development and it is not accesable by public transport to the apartments. It is about a five to ten minute walk to the nearest bus stop to takeyou into the city.

Paid £45 a night for a well positioned, well equipt, clean and comfortable two bed apartment - very reasonably priced. May even go as far as saying it was a bargain! I knew the location, so wasn't expecting anything near the city centre. Close to facilities at Ocean Terminal (Cinema, Shops etc), and a few local amenities along the road (10 minute walk). Great if you have a car or are willing to rely on taxis, it's about a 15 minute drive in to town. Nearest bus stop is about 10 minutes walk down the road.Review by: Anonymous

Hello there "Stillman-ites" ;)
Hey you guys! I'm so glad I found this forum. You practically cannot find anything about the Stillman Diet online and most people know nothing about it. I bought the book from Amazon and I am almost finished reading it, but I started 3 days ago at around 202 pounds. I have to add that I cheated mostly....I started Sunday after enjoying a Starbucks coffee and chocolate banana cake, then from that point on I ate Stillman style..for the night...next day I did perfectly..hardly ate, it was weird. Day 3 I was supposed to eat Stillman style..I sort of did..then I fell and tripped inside of Burger King and the value menu attacked me! OMG.
It was strange because I can honestly eat (easily) 3 whopper juniors and 2 value fries..or at least TWO whopper juniors. This time, I was full after 1 whopper junior and one french fry..it felt SO strange. I had a cookie and later ate the chicken sandwich we ordered..then I went to my guy's family's house and had coffee and a roll with cheese. I knew I messed up and was determined NOT to do it again..culprit? Diet Coke. Yep, every time I drink it I get SO HUNGRY. Today I woke up expecting to have gained...nope..I am 197! So in 3 days (with some HARDCORE cheating) I have lost 5 pounds. Today I haven't messed up..but I feel weird...haven't had a BM lol.
Anyone else want to share their experience so far? I want to know your weight loss. Do you think it's possible for me to lose 45 pounds (or more) in 9 weeks on Stillman?
I hope not! LOL there is a good reason people here talk about a woe (way of eating) rather than a DIET which implies something temporary. if you eat differently to lose weight and go back to the way you ate before, you will regain and usually go higher than you were previously. Do that often enough and your metabolism gets so messed up it's hard to lose at all. far better to figure a way you can eat forever to lose weight, maintain it, and be healthy. I wish you luck with THAT! *hug*
Oh no way, I just can't go back to regular eating..I have wasted my whole life being fat. I realize people gain because they add too many carbs back in too quick and some people don't seem to realize what healthy carbs are. I am determine not to mess it up this time. Why would you say you hope not? I have just over 9 weeks for a major event, so I was curious.
welcome to the group lilnurse! Going on QWL will produce dramatic results but it has to be followed to a T, if you'd like to meet your goal. I beleive you can do it!
This is my second round of strict QWL, and Ive lost 10 pounds in one week.
Check out the march thread, cause thats where we usually are.. again welcome! I look forward to hearing your progress!!
BTW- I have an event too, let's get this over with!!
I just started too!
I haven't cheated and i'm still only down 2 pounds but I am pretty sure that is because its my TOM on the plus side I didn't binge on junk lat nnight because of it I just ate a litle extra haha.
I'm not trying to lose for an event but I would like to lose my weight in about 8-10 weeks, if you want to be a buddy he is also new to share war stories with I'm here!
Newbies, go over to the March thread. You will get more results with feedback. It sounds
like you have had some improvement in your diet lilnurse. Continue to be inspired by that, but also, work your way toward a strict plan.
I have lost 70 lbs on Stillmans as of today... one must be careful on maintenance. I took a brief break and not a full break, just added some healthy carbs to maintain and didn't eat after 4 pm,and then went back on and began losing again as wanted. I have 6 more lbs to go before I can stop losing and work on maintenance. I am giving myself a 5 lb window in case of social occassions or that rare "got to have this" moment. Very rare indeed now days.
See you at the March thread.
OH, and the Diet Coke... watch "sweet misery" on youtube (the kennedy upload, not the journeyman.tv). It will scare you straight... Watched it again last night.
Thanks you guys! Well, I had a slight cheat today...had 4 big tablespoons of a beet/pea salad. *Sigh* I told my guy not to bring food home like that, but he did and I was tempted. I'm still pretty sure I haven't had more than 1,300 calories today. Hopefully tomorrow is better.

Developer CD Projekt Red has something impressive in the works for fans of The Witcher in need of a mobile fix. Its upcoming game, The Witcher Battle Arena, is a multiplayer experience akin to DotA and League of Legends, but set in the rich medieval universe made popular by the PC/console video game series that's been around since 2007 (themselves based on a series of books). The game was demoed at this year's E3, and it looks awesome.
People love real-time strategy games. They're immensely immersive, as it's almost a necessity to create elaborate worlds in order to conjure up enough units to make the game worth playing. WarCraft's universe was captivating enough to spawn an MMORPG that has since enthralled millions of players worldwide. Some long-time gamers may scoff at the idea of mentioning Clash of Clans in the same breath as such a proven franchise, but with leagues of players using mobile devices and a free-to-play model, it somewhat embodies what a modern day take on the real-time strategy genre would be, and now the smash hit title has made its way over to Android.
It's certainly been a good few days for Android gaming, hasn't it? And it looks like the trend is still going: the hotly anticipated Android version of popular iOS game Dungeon Defenders has just landed in the Market with a holiday price of $3. What makes the game so great? Aside from the fact that it's powered by the Unreal engine (!) - which means the graphics are superb - it's long been one of the best-rated iOS games on the market.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: BCRX) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2009.
"Over the past year, BioCryst has made great strides towards the goal of building an enduring and successful biopharmaceutical company," said Jon P. Stonehouse, President and Chief Executive Officer of BioCryst Pharmaceuticals. "Peramivir has delivered the first marketing authorization and first product sales revenue for a BioCryst discovered drug."
Mr. Stonehouse continued, "We ended 2009 with a strong balance sheet and greater financial flexibility to advance our programs. In 2010, we look forward to seeing clinical data from a variety of our ongoing studies."
Fourth Quarter Financial Results
For the three months ended December 31, 2009, total revenues were $54.9 million compared to $34.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008. This increase was driven by $22.9 million in product sales, primarily the $22.5 million order of 10,000 courses of intravenous (i.v.) peramivir from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), as well as the $7.0 million milestone payment from the Company's partner, Shionogi & Co., Ltd., related to its filing of a New Drug Application (NDA) to seek regulatory approval for i.v. peramivir in Japan.

He was married three times, once to actress Joan Fontaine, by whom he had a daughter, and lastly to actress Ann Rutherford, both of whom survived him.[3] Fontaine's estranged sister Olivia de Havilland (Melanie Wilkes) co-starred with Ann Rutherford (Carreen O'Hara) in 1939's Gone with the Wind.

Raising awareness of female genital mutilation in Staffordshire
Posted: March 18, 2014|
THE risk and cruelty of female genital mutilation (FGM) has been highlighted as part of International Women's Day.
Deputy Staffordshire police and crime commissioner (PCC) Sue Arnold is spearheading an awareness campaign, on behalf of PCC Matthew Ellis, in Staffordshire about this often hidden form of child abuse.
FGM involves the partial or total removal of the external female genital organs for non-medical reasons.
It usually happens between the ages of four and ten and can have serious consequences for a woman's health and in some instances lead to death.
It is practised in 28 African countries and some in the Middle East and Asia and affects migrant communities in the UK.
Mrs Arnold said: "Female genital mutilation is a hideous crime which almost always goes unreported.
"Around 24,000 girls are currently at risk of FGM across the UK which means this is a problem that cannot be ignored in Staffordshire.
"The Education Secretary recently agreed to write to every school in the country to raise awareness of FGM, which sees young girls go through tremendous pain and suffering.
"This isn't just a problem for women in affected communities – it's an issue which we all need to face."
Staffordshire's Deputy Chief Constable Jane Sawyers added: "It's a criminal offence in the UK to perform, or to assist in carrying out, female genital mutilation."

text: Why can't Susie add? It may be the nature of math tests--not her inherent ability--that's the problem. The belief in men's math superiority is supported by the fact that boys consistently outscore girls on the SAT and GRE by about 50 points. Still, girls get higher grades in math classes. To Robert Josephs, Ph.D., of the University of Texas-Austin, the numbers didn't add up. The assistant professor of psychology gave a GRE math section to undergraduates and found that women who believed it would expose academic flaws performed much worse than those who thought it would demonstrate ability. Men, however, performed worse when they thought the test would show their proficiency. While women worry about proving that they are bad at math, says Josephs, men are concerned with confirming that they are better at sums. So both sexes feel more pressure-and do worse, on tests which reinforce gender stereotypes of behavior. Which is why girls perform confidently in class but lose points on standardized tests: exams like the GRE are used to weed out weak students, but school math tests are designed to let them show what they know.
