Featuring a central location in historic Paarl, just a short drive from Cape Town, this lodge offers comfortable accommodations along the Cape Wine Route.
Score from 123 reviews Very good
Quiet ambience, impressive mountain view, fresh and healthy breakfast, very kindly hosts (with good tips and recommendations for your stay), relaxed and friendly staff. The city centre, a mall and a few wine estates are quite near on foot. The room was clean and well appointed (for a house built in 1818). If you enjoy the charm of a personal managed accommodation without lacking time on your own, you are at the right place!
Nothing really - except the bed was too soft for me. But that is a matter of taste.
Heather, staff, accessibility, mountain views
Very slow bread toaster (minor)
Lovely surroundings and close to everything around. Stunning! The owners are hugely welcoming too, as are their doggies! :)
While the location of my room was perfect, the cleanliness of the sheets were in question and the room just needed a refresh. Otherwise, lovely.
Fantastic place with a beautiful view over the vineyards and mountains. Top hospitality! Perfect place from where you can start to visit the winelands or do a mountainbike tour... A guesthouse to recommend and we hope to come back in a few years. That's for sure ;-)
Breathtaking views, Very friendly, relaxed staff! An excellent place to stay!
We were two ladies on business and just loved our rooms! We had a Cape Dutch styled cottage with two separate rooms with fabulous bathrooms. Sitting on our verandah with a glass of wine, the vineyards an arm stretch away and fabulous view of the mountains in the distance. Perfect breakfast and lovely hosts. Fits our budget, thank goodness as we will be back many times for our business trips to Paarl and Cape Town.
The service from the owner was very good.Very friendly.
For us the photo's of the rooms, look very fancy.But found the upkeep of the building was poor, and there was only a shower, and no bath.
Privacy and scenic Friendly service Homely feel
Slightly limited facilities
Close to town. Close to shops & restuarants( mall) Spacious rooms
Nothing I did not like
the peace and cleanliness the manage (Kim) was excellent The accommodation was perfect The food was great
i parked my car under a tree that dripped a glue-ish substance on the car.
The breakfast and the setting for breakfast was very pleasant.
We are South Africans in the hospitality industry and our expectations were not met. We booked two rooms for three nights. Of the six rooms booked we used only one. Upon arrival we explained to the owner that the accommodation was not suitable. We asked our son not to join us and that we said that we would be checking out in the morning. My understanding, from a discussion with the owner, was that we were only going to be charged for two rooms but we were charged for all six. I certainly did not expect this as it was a public holiday period and the owner was quick to tell me how he was turning away people. It is of concern that the images on the web site do not accurately portray the facilities. The main building is in fact dark, shabby, uninviting and dominated by two large dogs. Our room had a lilac theme, shoddy furniture and office quality carpeting. It was situated at the end of the terrace and was anything but private. In our bedroom there was a locked door to another room offering little auditory privacy. The bathroom had no bath which was not acceptable to us. The water from the incomplete shower enclosure ran onto the floor. The style of the finishes was very coarse and rustic - a mismatch with the lilac bedroom. The host was very pre-occupied and seemed insincere. The parking area is unpaved and basic. The gardener/pool store is a mess and in full view. The Inn is situated on a main road with a railway line on the other side. We were very disappointed, felt mislead and poorly treated.
The warm welcome from all the staff, felt like we were part of the family. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Should be actually a 4 star rather than 3 star rating.
Fifth stay at Goedemoed in as many years. Continues to be my favorite place in South Africa, and one of the best in the world.
To keep up with the competition, satellite TV (rather than just local channels) would be nice.
Kim was an excellent host and my son really enjoyed his quick wit!
Owners are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is very good.
Guest house was being renovated so difficult to give a true impression of the place. Furnishings in the bedroom were aging.
Kim and Heather the owners where fantastic and went out of their way to welcome me. Thanks.
Nothing really - my only build would be for them to have a bar so that guests can socialise.
The relaxed feeling, view, breakfast, welcoming, everything!!!!
Attractive country setting and friendly host.
Bed was hard.
Lovely location overlooking the vinyard and the valley. Very friendly and helpful hosts, good recommendation for evening meal. Comfortable and well appointed room.
We spent four extremely enjoyable restful days and nights and given a garden room. Wi-Fi internet access is not merely good and fast, but contrary to Booking.com website statement is actually completely FREE ! You do not even have to enter a password ! Goedmoed is immediately surrounded by a working vineyard, although Owners Kim and Heather are not themselves farmers. The room had two large single beds pushed together to create a huge and comfortable king-size, so no problem there. Bearing in mind that this property was built in 1818 it follows that even the grandest dame of all would require a bit of face powder at nearly 200 years old ! The water was always piping hot. All electrical equipment worked satisfactorily. We did not suffer any power cuts, but there had been a storm a few days before which had apparently created an outage. Frankly, if you are the sort of person who prefers a characterless business chain motel block with every room in every location identical, then this is probably not for you. However, if you want to enjoy the charm of a one-off property with extremely personable owners and a great breakfast all combining to give you a relaxing and happy experience that will stay in your memory for years, then don't hesitate to book. Great breakfast with really fresh fruit - eg blueberries, apricots, strawberries as well as melon, pineapple, paw paw, bananas, kiwi, apples, oranges etc - every morning, along with cereals, cheeses, cooked to order sausages, bacon, eggs, tomatoes etc. We loved it and just wish that there were many more places like Goedemoed !
The beautiful roses on the entrance to the Guest House
Although the hosts were friendly and helpful, the website pictures are misleading. The close proximity to a noisy and busy road.We thought it was on a wine farm. Not having the double room which we booked. The dirty and very old bathroom which was in disrepair. Tiles were painted over, and the water leaked out of the wall. The grime and lifting filler around the bath was awful. No chains on the plugs, couldn't get the plug out of the bath. No electricity at 7pm when we arrived back at the gh. No hot water to have a bath after a long journey. No dstv. Having to pay r40 per hour for WiFi when its free most places. If I had not already paid I would not have stayed here. Nor will I do so again.

The timely January debut of "Privacy in the Age of Big Data," a book co-authored by Charlotte residents Theresa Payton and Ted Claypoole, landed Payton on ''The Daily Show with Jon Stewart'' last month.
And while the Target hacking attack has many people worried these days about the safety of their personal information, Claypoole likes to point out that the issue of cybersecurity is always on trend.
"The battle between the cyberpolice and the cybercriminals is an eternal struggle," says Claypoole, an attorney who leads the privacy and data management team at Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice. "You have to think about where (you're) vulnerable."
Payton is a former White House chief information officer and founder of Charlotte-based Fortalice, a security, risk and fraud consulting company. The duo also wrote "Protecting Your Internet Identity: Are you Naked Online?" which published in 2012.
The hackers who stole millions of customers' credit and debit card numbers from Target during the holiday shopping season shows the issue of card security is not going away. It also illustrates how all types of businesses – even small companies and retailers – are at risk, Claypoole says.
Here are Claypoole's tips on what small businesses should do to protect themselves:
1. Realize that being smaller doesn't make you less of a target. Hackers that are pulling off these attacks are professionals. They know it's a lot easier to break in through an area that's unprotected. "They are more likely to go after the small- and medium-size businesses" if that's easier, Claypoole says. "There will be plenty to steal."
Also, small businesses may be vulnerable because of the vendors they use. So a hacker may not pick your coffee shop, but rather target the payment processor who handles your customers' credit and debit card numbers – as well as thousands of other mom and pop shops.
2. Know where all of your "cyberdoors" are – and close them off. It was reported last week that the Target hackers may have used a third-party vendor – a Pittsburgh-area heating and refrigeration business – as the back door to get in. The theory illustrates how cyberthieves gain access through connected computer networks.
Your point-of-sale system, or what used to be called a cash register, could make your business vulnerable to an attack. Many people have it connected to their computer system for record keeping. But there are ways hackers can tap into those systems.
"When you set up your system, you have to make sure you close all those cyberdoors, and close them well. If the key to your system is encrypted, but your encryption is 12345, or your password is 'admin' … it's like closing the door, but not locking it when you leave."
Also think about which computers actually need to be connected to the Internet, Claypoole says. Consider storing information that is critical to your business on a separate computer that's not connected.
"Really big companies keep that in mind and have a lot of computers that are not connected to the Internet," Claypoole says. "It's a strategy that many small businesses don't think about."
3. Keep an IT expert at the ready. Claypoole recommends that every small business keep a data security specialist on call, who can come to your business to check on problems and offer advice on what kind of protection you need.
4. Be aware of ransomware. Versions of this malware get into your computer by clicking on an attachment. One version, called CryptoLocker, locks up all your personal files unless you pay the hacker a fee, typically less than $100. "It'll say 'You have this many hours … if you don't (pay) then we're going to destroy everything on your computer."
"Getting one of these can be a huge problem," Claypoole says. "You're probably better off as a small business bringing a professional in" – or getting a new computer.
5. Protect yourself with cloud backup. By having data automatically stored in the cloud, you can protect your files from ransomware or other attacks. "If you got malware today, you can go back to yesterday, or before, and get all your files back if you saved them on the cloud."
Just be careful that you don't bring back the malware, Claypoole says.

Since local communities play a critical role in welcoming and assisting immigrants, USCIS relies on state and local partnerships to help educate immigrants about naturalization and lawful immigration. Through these partnerships, we provide information and resources to help facilitate outreach and engagement, training and technical assistance, and citizenship education to communities.
City of Chicago, IL
The City of Chicago is collaborating with USCIS to distribute at city facilities information on the naturalization process and how to avoid scams, provide USCIS educational materials and training on the naturalization process to librarians in the Chicago Public Library system, and hold naturalization ceremonies at prominent venues in the City of Chicago.
City of Los Angeles, CA
The City of Los Angeles is collaborating with USCIS to distribute educational materials highlighting U.S. citizenship and the naturalization process at city facilities, hold information sessions for permanent residents interested in learning about U.S. citizenship, and provide USCIS educational materials and training on the naturalization process to librarians in the Los Angeles Public Library system.
Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County, TN
The Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County (Metro Government) is collaborating with USCIS to implement outreach efforts to raise awareness about the rights and responsibilities of citizenship and the naturalization process. Under the initiative, USCIS and the Metro Government are distributing USCIS educational materials at Nashville Public Library branches and community centers, providing training on the naturalization process to Metro Government and library staff members, and utilizing the Metro Government and public library websites to provide citizenship information and links to USCIS resources.
Institute of Museum and Library Services
Because libraries are a vital resource for immigrant communities, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) is collaborating with USCIS to provide information, educational materials, and training resources on immigration and citizenship to local libraries. Through this partnership, USCIS and IMLS seek to ensure that librarians have the necessary tools to refer their customers to accurate and reliable sources of information on immigration-related topics.
Your birth certificate provides proof of citizenship. If you need a copy of your birth certificate, contact the Bureau of Vital Statistics in the State in which you were born. We do not issue any kind of citizenship document to a person who is a citizen by birth in the United States.
The citizenship of someone born outside of the United States, as the child of a U.S. citizen parent, could vary depending on the law in effect when the birth took place. In most cases citizens born outside the U.S. requires a combination of evidence showing at least one parent being a U.S. citizen when the child was born and having lived in the United States or its possessions for a period of time.
To apply for recognition of citizenship, you have options:
You can use your original Naturalization Certificate or Certificate of Citizenship as proof of citizenship. If you have lost either of your certificates, you can apply for a replacement using Form N-565. The instructions to N-565 explain how to file and the process in greater detail. You can access both the form and instructions from the "Related Links" section in the upper right corner of this page. If you do not have Web access at home or work, check with your public library, or you can order a form by telephone by calling the USCIS forms request line at 1-800-870-3676.
Identification when applying for a job
Every employer in the United States must verify that each newly hired employee can be legally employed in the United States. A U.S. citizen may show a variety of evidence to meet this requirement:
Where can I get a U.S. passport?
USCIS does not issue passports. For more on obtaining a U.S. passport, visit the Department of State's Passport webpage or call the National Passport Information Center at 1-877-487-2778, TDD/TTY: 1-888-874-7793.
If you are a U.S. citizen traveling internationally, you will need to carry your valid U.S. passport. If you are traveling to or from a country where a U.S. passport is not required, you'll usually need two documents:
If you were not born in the United States, carrying your valid U.S. passport is your best option to prove your U.S. citizenship. You can also use your original naturalization certificate or certificate of citizenship. Note: Hospital-issued birth certificates, voter registration cards, and affidavits cannot be used as identification.
A passport or other accepted document that establishes the bearer's identity and nationality is required in order to enter or re-enter the United States.
New Passport Requirements: As part of U.S. Department of State's Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative, all travelers are required to present a valid passport or other acceptable document(s) to enter or re-enter the United States (visitors and U.S. residents) from Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, and Bermuda. See link to the U.S. Department of State for a List of New Requirements for Travelers in the upper right corner of this page under "Related Links." Note: This does not affect travel between the United States and its territories. U.S. citizens traveling between the United States and Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa will continue to be able to use established forms of identification.
There are two general ways to obtain citizenship through U.S. citizen parents, one at birth and one after birth but before the age of 18. The term "parents" includes: the genetic father, the genetic mother, and the non-genetic gestational mother, if she is the legal parent at the time of birth under the law of the relevant jurisdiction. For more information, see USCIS Policy Manual guidance on Children of U.S. Citizens.
There are two general ways to obtain citizenship through parents, one at birth and one after birth but before the age of 18. For more information, see USCIS Policy Manual guidance on Children of U.S. Citizens.
Citizenship at Birth for Children Born Outside the U.S. and its Territories
For information on who qualifies as a "child" for citizenship purposes, see USCIS Policy Manual guidance on Children of U.S. Citizens.
At least one parent lived in the U.S. or its territories prior to the birth.
The U.S. citizen parent had been physically present in the U.S. or its territories for a period of at least five years at some time in his or her life prior to the birth, of which at least two years were after his or her 14th birthday.
If the U.S. citizen parent spent time abroad in any of the following three capacities, this can also be counted towards the physical presence requirement:
Additionally, time spent abroad by the U.S. citizen parent while the U.S. citizen parent was the unmarried son or daughter and a member of the household of a person who meets any of the three conditions listed above can also be counted.
The U.S. citizen parent was physically present in the U.S. or its territories for a period of at least 5 years at some time in his or her life prior to the birth, at least 2 of which were after his or her 14th birthday.If the U.S. citizen parent spent time abroad in any of the following three capacities, this can also be counted towards the physical presence requirement:
Additionally, time spent abroad by the U.S. citizen parent while the U.S. citizen parent was the unmarried son or daughter and a member of the household of a person who meets any of the three conditions listed above can also be counted.
Automatic U.S. Citizenship After Birth - But Before the Age of 18
The child was residing as a Green Card holder in the U.S. and both parents naturalized before the child's 18th birthday; OR
NOTE: The order in which the child meets the conditions does not matter so long as the child meets all the conditions before his or her 18th birthday.
The child resides legally in the U.S. in the legal and physical custody of the U.S. citizen parent and meets the following conditions after February 27, 2001 but before his or her 18th birthday:
To apply for a Certificate of Citizenship, please see our Form N-600 page and read the instructions carefully to ensure that you qualify.
For more information, see our webpage N-600: Frequently Asked Questions and the USCIS Policy Manual, Volume 12, Part H, Children of U.S. Citizens.
To become a naturalized U.S. citizen, you must pass the naturalization test. At your naturalization interview, you will be required to answer questions about your application and background. You will also take an English and civics test unless you qualify for an exemption or waiver.
For more information, see USCIS Policy Manual English and Civics Testing Guidance.
USCIS offers a variety of study materials, including:
These and other citizenship resources for immigrants, educators, and organizations are available on the Citizenship Resource Center website.
For information on exceptions or modifications to the English and civics requirements for naturalization, visit our Exceptions & Accommodations page.
You will be given two opportunities to take the English and civics tests and to answer all questions relating to your naturalization application in English. If you fail any of the tests at your initial interview, you will be retested on the portion of the test that you failed (English or civics) between 60 and 90 days from the date of your initial interview. See 8 CFR 312.5(a) and 335.3(b).
If USCIS approves your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, we will schedule you to take the Oath of Allegiance at a naturalization ceremony. Taking the oath will complete the process of becoming a U.S. citizen.
Types of Ceremonies:
Here is what to expect at your naturalization ceremony:
You may be able to participate in a naturalization ceremony on the same day as your interview. If a ceremony is unavailable, we will mail you a notice with the date, time, and location of your scheduled naturalization ceremony on a Form N-445, Notice of Naturalization Oath Ceremony.If you cannot attend your scheduled naturalization ceremony, return the notice, Form N-445, Notice of Naturalization Oath Ceremony, to your local USCIS office, along with a letter requesting a new date and explaining why you cannot attend the scheduled naturalization ceremony. Failing to appear more than once for your naturalization ceremony may lead to a denial of your application.
After you arrive at the ceremony, check in with USCIS. A USCIS officer will review your responses to the questionnaire, Form N-445, Notice of Naturalization Oath Ceremony. Please complete your responses to the questionnaire before you arrive.
You must return your Permanent Resident Card to USCIS when you check in for your naturalization ceremony. This requirement is waived if you provided proof during the naturalization interview that the card has been lost and you have attempted to recover it, or if, because of your military service, you were never granted permanent residence. You will no longer need your Permanent Resident Card because you will receive your Certificate of Naturalization after you take the Oath of Allegiance.
You are not a U.S. citizen until you take the Oath of Allegiance at a naturalization ceremony. You will receive your Certificate of Naturalization after taking the Oath of Allegiance.
Carefully review your Certificate of Naturalization and notify USCIS of any errors before leaving the ceremony. You may use your Certificate of Naturalization as official proof that you are a U.S. citizen.If you lose your Certificate of Naturalization, you may request a replacement by filing Form N-565, Application for Replacement Naturalization/Citizenship Document. You may request Form N-565 by calling the USCIS Forms Line (1-800-870-3676) or by downloading the form. The fee to file this form is $345.
Once you become a U.S. citizen, you can do the following:
We strongly recommend that you apply for a U.S. passport through the U.S. Department of State soon after you take the Oath of Allegiance. Please allow sufficient time between your naturalization ceremony and any planned travel to receive your passport.
Voting in federal elections is both a right and a responsibility that comes with U.S. citizenship. After you take the Oath of Allegiance at an administrative ceremony, you will have the opportunity to register to vote. At administrative naturalization ceremonies, forms may be distributed by a state or local government election office, a non-governmental organization, or a USCIS official. If a non-governmental organization assists you in registering to vote at a USCIS naturalization ceremony, that organization may collect and submit your form to the appropriate Election Official, but it is not permitted to retain any of your personal information. Please notify your local USCIS office if you believe that an organization has retained and used your personal information after assisting you with a voter registration application at a USCIS naturalization ceremony.
You may register to vote at other locations in your community, which may include post offices, motor vehicle offices, county boards of election, and offices of your state Secretary of State. For more information, please see "A Voter's Guide to Federal Elections."
After your naturalization ceremony, you should update your Social Security record at a local office of the Social Security Administration (SSA). Please wait at least ten days after your ceremony before going to the SSA to ensure that data reflecting your naturalization has been updated. You will need your Certificate of Naturalization or U.S. passport when you visit the SSA to update your record. To find your local Social Security office, call 1-800-772-1213 or visit www.socialsecurity.gov.
Naturalization is the process by which U.S. citizenship is granted to a foreign citizen or national after he or she fulfills the requirements established by Congress in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
For more information, see USCIS Policy Manual Citizenship and Naturalization Guidance.
To apply for naturalization, file Form N-400, Application for Naturalization.
For more information, see our How Do I Apply for Citizenship? guide. We also provide educational materials to help you prepare for the English, U.S. history and civics portions of the naturalization test, including:
For more test information visit our Naturalization Test page.
If you are in the military and are interested in becoming a U.S. citizen, please see the M-599, Naturalization Information for Military guide.

Maude Maggart (born February 24, 1975) is an American cabaret singer and recording artist who performs throughout the United States and Europe, but most often in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York City.[1][2]
Maggart was born in New York City to Broadway veterans Brandon Maggart and Diane McAfee and is the sister of singer/songwriter Fiona Apple. At the age of twenty, she changed her stage name to Maude after her paternal great-grandmother, Maude Apple.[1]
Maggart's brother, Garett Maggart, starred in the TV series The Sentinel. In addition, her maternal grandparents were Millicent Greene, a dancer with the George White's Scandals, a series of 1920s musical revues similar to the Ziegfeld Follies, and Johnny McAfee, a multireedist and vocalist of the big band era. Her grandparents met while touring with Johnny Hamp and his Orchestra. She went to the Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts, in New York City. Her 2001 cabaret debut in Los Angeles prompted critic Les Traub to write that she is "destined to become a major cabaret star."
She has been described as a "strikingly beautiful and poised performer," and has been widely praised for her vocal talent, her intelligent, emotional, witty interpretations, as well as for her taste in song selection primarily from the American popular song book featuring the works of Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Jerome Kern, Harold Arlen, Johnny Mercer, Vernon Duke, and Rodgers and Hart. She has paid vocal tribute in her concerts to such popular singers and predecessors as Helen Morgan, Annette Hanshaw, Ruth Etting, Alice Faye, Helen Forrest and lryicist Marshall Barer. Her 2006 concerts have featured established standards as well as exquisite renditions of songs by Jackson Browne and Joan Baez.
Her first album Look For the Silver Lining focuses on songs of the 1920s. The selections on her second album, With Sweet Despair, range in era and style. Her third album features a repertoire of standards and unearthed gems and is titled Maude Maggart Sings Irving Berlin, which included "When I Lost You," Maggart's rendition of which is featured in the movie Spike. In 2007 she released Maude Maggart Live. Her latest recording is a collaboration with Brent Spiner, entitled Dreamland.
Embraced as a protégée and colleague of such other performers as Michael Feinstein and Andrea Marcovicci, she has been profiled on National Public Radio, in the New York Times and Time Out New York and has appeared on such shows as Prairie Home Companion. In 2005, she received the Backstage Ira Eaker Award, The Tony Award for Outstanding Achievement in Cabaret and the Manhattan Association of Cabarets and Clubs (M.A.C.) award for Best Female Debut. She performs regularly at the Oak Room of the Algonquin Hotel in New York, the Gardenia in Hollywood and the Plush Room in San Francisco.
Each Maude Maggart show has a theme running through the show. The songs are put together to tell a story from the beginning of the evening to the end.

Great product
This is a great product. We had made pieces of lexan to do the same thing, which was difficult to do as the material cracks when you try to drill a hole. It took a lot more material and time then your door protector. I ordered yours because the one we made fell off the door.We are very happy to find something easier and at a wonderful price. Thank You

Before those final few awards, during which "24's" Sutherland won for best actor in a drama for the first time, the Emmys had favored the tried and true, despite some controversial rule changes instituted this year that were designed to shake up the awards.
The shows that have been breathing new life into primetime television in recent years — such as "American Idol," "House" and "Grey's Anatomy," despite its 11 nominations — also were overlooked. And several of last year's most honored shows, such as "Lost" and "Desperate Housewives," received few nominations and won no major awards.
At the same time, many of the honors went to shows that won't be returning, including "Will & Grace" and "Huff."
Until the final moments of the show, if you had won before, the chances were you won again. Megan Mullally of NBC's "Will & Grace" won her second Emmy for best supporting actress in a comedy. Alan Alda, a multiple Emmy winner for "MASH," won for best supporting actor in a drama for "The West Wing" on NBC. Tony Shalhoub won his third Emmy for best actor in a comedy for "Monk" on USA.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus, a best supporting actress Emmy winner from "Seinfeld," won for best actress in a comedy for CBS' "The New Adventures of Old Christine." "Curse this, baby!" she said of the supposed jinx that has plagued "Seinfeld" alums.
And though critics thought CBS' "The Amazing Race" had an off year, because of an unpopular family edition and time-slot switches, it trounced the juggernaut of "American Idol" for the fourth straight time for outstanding reality series.
Host Conan O'Brien and the show's writers brought their quirky sense of silliness to the proceedings, with bits that hit (Bob Newhart in a cylinder that O'Brien threatened would run out of air if the show ran past its allotted time), and missed (sometimes stilted dialogue between presenters). He kept the tone light, with only slight references to the controversy surrounding the rule changes.
The new rules relied on panels of Academy of Television Arts & Sciences members to determine the final nominations after a larger vote had whittled down the field in the major categories. The hope was that the process would result in recognition for niche shows that had been overlooked in previous years. But some panel members complained that the new system was confusing: they weren't allowed to directly compare shows and didn't understand the scoring.
The film clip that started the show had O'Brien being forced to make his way through several different TV series on his way to the Emmys and had the feel of a Billy Crystal Oscar opening. But it was clouded by a plane-crash scene parodying "Lost," which started the show on a jarring note considering the crash hours earlier in Kentucky that had left 49 dead. Within moments, criticism of the crash imagery raced through the Internet faster than any other Emmy news.
Overall, HBO was the big winner with a total of 26 Emmys. Among the broadcast networks, NBC led with 14; ABC had 11; Fox, 10; CBS, 9; and PBS, 8.
In winning for best comedy, NBC's "The Office" extends its status as a low-key winner. It is far below the popularity levels of "Two and a Half Men," which was also nominated for best comedy. Like the canceled "Arrested Development," which won six Emmys but was never able to attract a large audience, "The Office" is a critical favorite that has yet to attain wide popularity.
Both "24" and "The Office" have been hailed for their innovative upheavals of the traditional sitcom and episodic drama. But their victory did not demonstrate a wave of fresh vision or brave new directions that the redesigned nomination process was meant to achieve.
Although Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report" this year may have received most of the headlines, it was unable to unseat its parent show, "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," which took home its fourth consecutive Emmy for both best variety, music and comedy series, as well as the trophy for best writing. Even Stewart, in an apparent reference to Colbert's show, quipped in his acceptance speech that he thought the academy had "made a mistake."
In fact, one of the few surprises came courtesy of a crooner who is often the butt of jokes. Musician Barry Manilow triumphed over his TV competition Stephen Colbert, Craig Ferguson, David Letterman and Hugh Jackman in winning the award for individual performance in a variety or music program with his PBS special, "Barry Manilow: Music and Passion."
HBO continued its traditional dominance in the movie categories. "Elizabeth I" was the night's top winner with nine Emmys, including best miniseries and Helen Mirren as best actress. "The Girl in the Cafe" won three Emmys, including best made-for-TV movie.
Showtime scored one of the night's upsets when Blythe Danner won her second consecutive Emmy for outstanding supporting actress in a drama for "Huff," which the pay cable network canceled in its second season. Danner, who took a few good-natured pokes at the cancellation, beat out popular favorites such as Sandra Oh and Chandra Wilson of "Grey's Anatomy" and Jean Smart of "24."
HBO, which had the most nominations of any network, finally nabbed some awards gold for "Entourage," which some insiders felt was overlooked in the major comedy categories. Jeremy Piven, who plays the foul-mouthed Hollywood agent Ari Gold, won for outstanding supporting actor in a comedy.
Heartfelt, sometimes tearful, emotion took center stage at various points during the evening. A tribute to the late TV mogul Aaron Spelling, who died in June, included remembrances by three stars from his shows — Joan Collins ("Dynasty"), Stephen Collins ("7th Heaven") and Heather Locklear ("Melrose Place").
But the true surprise came when the three original "Charlie's Angels" — Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith — strode on stage. The three had not appeared together on television since Fawcett departed the series following the first season in 1977. Fawcett teared up while holding her hands in a prayerful gesture, looked upward and said, "Thank you, Aaron."
Another poignant moment came during a tribute to Dick Clark, who suffered a stroke in 2004. The segment included numerous clips of the legendary producer and host introducing future music superstars such as Madonna, Donna Summer and Michael Jackson on "American Bandstand."
Simon Cowell of "American Idol" then introduced Clark, who was sitting behind a podium, making his first public appearance since last year's "New Year's Rockin' Eve." Always the producer, Clark tried to cut short the standing ovation, pointing to his watch and warning that the show might run long. Even with his slurred speech, he eloquently expressed his gratitude that his dream of being in show business had come true.
Times staff writers Maria Elena Fernandez, Lynn Smith and Melissa Pamer contributed to this report.

The EU's anti-piracy Operation Atalanta fields distress calls from the Gulf of Aden and sees some success.
NORTHWOOD, U.K. — Almost every day now come reminders of why the European Union made a landmark decision a year ago that Somali piracy was a problem it had to fight.
At the very moment foreign and defense ministers from the 27 member states were considering how best to help counter the problem Tuesday, 28 North Korean crew members were taken hostage with a chemical tanker. The same day, 36 people and their Spanish ship were set free, reportedly at a price tag of over $3 million. Two British retirees are believed to be among some 200 people languishing in pirate custody as the United Kingdom rules out paying ransoms. An estimated 200 more people remain in their attackers' hands off the coast of Somalia, largely out of the public eye, according to Reuters, which keeps track of the ships in captivity.
The first naval mission in the EU's history, EUNAVFOR "Operation Atalanta," was quickly assembled in December 2008, with EU member states contributing ships, planes and helicopters. Its land-based headquarters is hosted by the United Kingdom in Northwood, just outside London.
(Also on Tuesday, the U.S.-flagged Maersk Alabama avoided being hijacked by pirates a second time. See in the video below what one Maersk captain says about his time at Northwood and what he learned about fighting pirates.)
What was envisioned as a one-year effort has already been extended to at least two years. Operation Atalanta has the primary responsibility to protect United Nations food aid shipments to Somalia, but also the larger task of deterring the rampant attacks in the wider Gulf of Aden region against commercial and civilian vessels, no matter the flag they fly.
"We're not tied to just looking after ships of the European Union," said Adm. Peter Hudson, EUNAVFOR's current commander, in an interview at headquarters in Northwood. "We have an obligation to global trade, to all ships operating in the region. We want to deter and disrupt piracy, full-stop, whoever is vulnerable to it."
NATO also has a smaller fleet in the area, along with a United States-led coalition and unilateral ships from a number of countries including Japan, India and Iran.
But a look at the numbers would make it seem that deterrence is not working. The International Maritime Bureau (IMB), part of the International Chamber of Commerce, reported that in the first three quarters of 2009, the number of piracy incidents worldwide — 306 — had already surpassed those in all of 2008. This is directly due to the increase in attacks off the coast of Somalia and in the Gulf of Aden, which alone saw more than double the attacks of last year.
But more significant is that the pirates' success rate has dropped dramatically. One in three hijack attempts were successful a year ago. That figure is one in nine today, according to IMB statistics.

This is the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and we're sure that by now, you know its stats, including over 600 horsepower from its 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. What, pray tell, does that blown engine sound like, though?
At least judging on the sonic strength of this video, it's very, very dirty. Honestly, it sounds unlike anything that's come out of the Chrysler Group in a long time, if ever. It's loud, almost brutally so, with a bark that few road-going V8s can match.
Of course, you should be the final judge here. Take a look and a listen at the two videos below, one of which comes from our friends at Cars.com that provides a nice look under the hood, and then let us know what you think of the Hellcat's singing voice in Comments.

Cleveland, OH (Sports Network) - Dustin Ackley went 2-for-6 with three RBI and two runs scored as Seattle split a doubleheader with Cleveland thanks to a 12-7 victory in the second game.
In the earlier game on Tuesday, Shin-Soo Choo belted a three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth to give the Indians a 7-5 win.
Mike Carp hit a two-run home run while Franklin Gutierrez went 3-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored for the Mariners, who came into the game having lost six of seven.
Anthony Vasquez (1-0) made his MLB debut and got the win as he gave up six runs -- five earned -- on nine hits and two walks over 5 1/3 innings of work.
"I felt pretty good. I was able to relax a little bit and settle in," Vasquez said of his debut.
Choo hit a solo homer and drove in two while Jack Hannahan went 4-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored for the Indians, who have lost five of their last six.
Zach McAllister (0-1) made his second career start and got the loss as he was tagged for 10 runs -- eight earned -- on nine hits with two walks in just 3 1/3 innings.
"It was another long day out there today," said Cleveland manager Manny Acta. "We could have used a good outing, but the kid couldn't pitch ahead and couldn't get the outs when he needed to. It's disappointing, but that's what you get when these kids come up and you don't know them that well. You have to be patient with them."
Kosuke Fukudome led off the second with a solo homer to give the Indians the early lead, but the Mariners answered with a five-run third.
With men on first and third and one out, Gutierrez hit a double to left that scored both runners and Ackley followed with a single to score Gutierrez. Carp then hit a homer over the wall in right for a 5-1 lead.
Choo's solo homer in the bottom of the third got one back for Cleveland, but the Mariners had another big inning in the fourth.
With the bases loaded and one out, Gutierrez punched a single to left and Ackley followed with a two-run single. Later in the frame, Wily Mo Pena hit a fly ball to center that saw the ball bounce off of Fukudome's glove and that allowed two runners to score for a 10-2 lead.
An RBI single from Jason Donald and an RBI groundout from Lou Marson in the fourth made it a 10-4 game.
Seattle tacked on a run in the fifth on an RBI single from Trayvon Robinson, but run scoring singles from Hannahan and Ezequiel Carrera in the sixth made it an 11-6 game.
Kyle Seager clubbed his second career home run in the eighth for a 12-6 advantage.
Cleveland loaded the bases with one out in the bottom of the eighth and Choo forced home a run with a walk. Jeff Gray, though, took over on the mound and got Carlos Santana to pop out to short and Shelley Duncan to line out and end the frame.

Californians headed to the polls to elect our next president will have another big decision to make: Should the state abolish capital punishment and commute all death sentences to life in prison?
According to the BBC, death penalty opponents are selling the ballot measure on financial and not merely moral grounds:
No inmate has been put to death in the state since 2006, and a respected study in 2009 noted that the state was spending some $184m each year to keep death row and the death penalty infrastructure up and running.
Opponents of the measure argue that the principle of the death penalty is valid and should remain, but say the constant and costly appeals and legal fees are inflating the costs.
Although California doesn't have the zeal for killing people that is found in Texas, which has executed at least 1,232 inmates, polls have shown residents strongly in favor of the death penalty for decades. A poll in 2011 showed 68 percent of respondents favoring capital punishment. —PZS

We're going to visit Muir Woods the next morning and after that San Fancisco. The proximity of the hotel made easy travel between both!
I could not connect to WiFi.
Bed was comfortable with multipal pillows and sheets
Bathroom ceiling showed exposed Sheetrock, exposed smoke detector. Room felt like unfinished construction.
Good parking space.
The bed was terrible, no top matress, could feel the springs. Does not match the price and reveiuw of the hotel.
clean, large, comfortable rooms. Bill was amazing at helping us abd giving us save rate as we had previously that week.love that there are doors on both sides of place.
Vending machines didn't have much choices, plus soda one didn't take dollars.has weird padded locked rooms inside if each room.creepy
Great value for the money, very spacious. King Bed.
A little hard to navigate in and out at rush hour.
Flashing lights in the room
Missing coffe maker Coffe Laundry bag Extra pillows Extra blankets
It's tired and in need of basic maintenance. It may be relatively low cost for the area but it is over priced for what it is.
difficult to find poor bathroom facilities in general premise was shoddy
Bed linens and pillows were good quality. Location is right near freeway on ramp, very convenient for heading onto 101 South. Bathtub, works well. Easy free parking.
Bathroom light flickers very rapidly. No ac. Dim lights. Very poor wifi. Small towels, skint tp.
The size of the room which was huge and the bed was very comfortable.
The location but "it is what it is".
Location is good. Bathrooms were clean.
Staff was surly. NO AC (room was an oven. Room felt unsafe, even though hotel is located in an otherwise VERY nice area (locks ready to fall off doors, saw a prostitute enter property while I was grabbing a bag out of my car...). Very noisy traffic impedes sleeping in early AM. Clientele was a mix of seedy men, bewildered tourists, and people like me who couldn't get a room at the Holiday Inn Express (where I usually stay) across the street. (HI is awesome and vastly preferable- but it always sells out and rates are double that of Americas Best Value). Stay at Holiday Inn Express or Travelodge Mill Valley if you'r a solo female traveler or young family. Trust me.
The bed was comfortable, and the in-room fridge worked.
It's never good when they take the full fee on your credit card up front; you know there's no turning back. Bathroom light fluorescent globe was on its way out. Needed 12-15 attempts to turn it on each time. Hot water only every other day. Kitchen that was unusable - they should have just sealed it off and pretended it wasn't there; though given the extra fridge and microwave in the bedroom, I guess mentally they already had. The doors didn't close properly, so road noise comes straight in. Luckily there is a CVS up the street that sells ear plugs - and they're doing a brisk trade....
Room decor was nice we checked out a day early with no advance notice and they refunded our money.
the toilet water would not stop running, the ancient wall heater made noise while on, the lights in the bathroom turned on sometimes, the advertised kitchen was non functional and the door was locked so we had no access, our room was not ready at check in and we left for two hours and it still was not cleaned. Over all it was not worth the money. It was like a pig with lipstick!
everything,the worst motel ever!
room was recently remodeled. coffee and other items available for guests.
new caulk on bath tub shows much mold as well as base of tub. starting at 5:45 a.m., traffic noise from cars entering busy route 101. It appears to be a family business. The young woman checking me in was very friendly. When checking out, the older woman did not return my greeting. A very frowning face.
Someone living in the rooms above us. Walking around all night long for some reason.
By the road, good beed, ok motel, huge room and a kitchen.
Not very clean, not very cozy.
The location
Noise above us in the room upstairs. Sounded like someone was remodeling during the middle of the night. Lots of banging and other noises. We asked the front desk around midnight to ask them to be quiet and the noise continued all through the night and next morning. Worst nights sleep in a hotel ever!
Nice soft big bed. Walked on the boardwalk to The Mexican Canina.... very nice food.
don't get a room above the office unless you like the smell curry cooking al night.No facilities for making a hot drink. No local restauarant.
Good wifi - clean and comfy beds
busy highway - dirty towel in room so only had one towel to use for 2 of us - had to walk outside to go to the office - just didn't feel safe for two ladies
The beds were clean and soft.
The guy at the front desk wasn't very friendly. The room keys barely worked, the room was hot and the A/C wouldn't work. ........until morning when the room was cold and the heat wouldn't work. There were ants in the tub and the hair dryer was broken.
Upon checking in I was given an upstairs room. I have issues with stairs so I asked for a downstairs room, which was no problem. I went to the room and the door was open to show the room was not ready. I saw the maid working in another room a few doors down, but she was talking on her cell phone while trying to work, so I went back to the office to get another room. I was given an upstairs room this time. I walked up the stairs, put the room key in, went to open door but the door lock was on. Someone was occupying room!!! The front desk person did not even know she had given me a key to a room that was already occupied. :( I had paid for a king size bed and now she wanted to know if I wanted a room with two queen beds :( I told her no, so she found me a king room. The room was a joke for the price I was paying. The only nice thing about the room was that the bed was king and comfy. The carpets were so old in the room I was afraid to walk around barefoot and it was incomplete from being renovated. The bathroom had nice tile, but the tub/shower area was not updated. There was a kitchen, but it looked like it was off limits. There was old food left in fridge. I'm happy there was microwave and mini fridge in room. No coffee pot. I was really disappointed I paid so much for this room. Pictures on Internet portrayed something different.
Very convenient location just outside Sausalito. Rooms weary quiet despite proximity to the main road.

Leading Proxy Advisory Firm ISS Recommends Dell Shareholders Vote "FOR" Proposed Sale Transaction At $13.65 Per Share In Cash
The Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Dell Inc. (NASDAQ: DELL) today announced that Institutional Shareholder Services ("ISS"), a leading independent proxy voting and corporate governance advisory firm, has recommended that Dell shareholders vote FOR the proposed sale transaction for $13.65 per share in cash.
The Special Committee issued the following statement:
"We are pleased that ISS has recommended, as we have, that Dell shareholders approve the $13.65 per share cash sale transaction. With the assistance of outside advisors over the course of an exhaustive 10-month process, the Committee has thoroughly reviewed Dell's existing business plan as it seeks to transform its business model and various alternatives in support of that transformation. Given the Company's business challenges, intensifying competition and deteriorating industry trends, a sale at $13.65 per share in cash provides the highest value and greatest certainty of any available alternative. We also believe rejection of this transaction would expose Dell and its shareholders to serious risks and uncertainties that will harm the Company's business and erode shareholder value."
ISS summarized its recommendation as follows:"After evaluating the risk of accepting the offer – truncation of value if the business transformation is successful – versus the risk of rejecting the offer – meaningful loss of value if the business transformation falters – ISS recommends clients vote FOR this transaction, which offers a 25.5% premium to the unaffected share price, provides certainty of value, and transfers the risk of the deteriorating PC business and the company's on-going business transformation to the buyout group." Forward-looking Statements Any statements in these materials about prospective performance and plans for the Company, the expected timing of the completion of the proposed merger and the ability to complete the proposed merger, and other statements containing the words "estimates," "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects," "will," and similar expressions, other than historical facts, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Factors or risks that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results we anticipate include, but are not limited to: (1) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement; (2) the inability to complete the proposed merger due to the failure to obtain stockholder approval for the proposed merger or the failure to satisfy other conditions to completion of the proposed merger, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the transaction; (3) the failure to obtain the necessary financing arrangements set forth in the debt and equity commitment letters delivered pursuant to the merger agreement; (4) risks related to disruption of management's attention from the Company's ongoing business operations due to the transaction; and (5) the effect of the announcement of the proposed merger on the Company's relationships with its customers, operating results and business generally.

There's a new sheriff in Loudoun County, and that's the last time we'll use that cliche here. Republican Mike Chapman, a former DEA agent, rode the crushing tide of Republican victories in Loudoun to sweep out incumbent Sheriff Steve Simpson, who will end his 16-year reign as sheriff.
Chapman rolled up 54 percent of the 49,000 votes cast, particularly impressive in a race with three candidates, including a four-term incumbent (who won 36 percent) and the biggest spender in the race, former shooting victim and groin photo enthusiast Ron Speakman, who tallied 10 percent.
In Fairfax, a late charge by former sheriff's lieutenant Bill Cooper was not enough to topple Democrat Stan Barry, who posted a 54-46 victory. Cooper and the Fairfax Republicans mounted an attack on Barry's entry into the county retirement system in late September, and it simply may not have had the time to create enough unrest or confusion to unseat the three-term incumbent. Or people may just like Barry, who by all accounts has managed the jail and the sheriff's office well through tough fiscal times.
The Loudoun race was the one true law enforcement contest in NoVa, since the sheriff there is the only elected top cop in our region, and Simpson had angered various groups over the years with his business dealings and his internal policies. But when he dumped the Republican party in 2007 after losing at their convention, and then won the general election, the Republicans went out and signed up a quality candidate, and then backed him to the hilt. That was the group that hurt Simpson the most.
In the only contested prosecutor's race in NoVa Tuesday, also in Loudoun, Republican Jim Plowman defeated Democrat Jennifer Wexton, 52 to 48 percent, to win a third term as commonwealth's attorney.

SS: "Relativity."
What's that?
SS: It's not around anymore. It was like a bad "Felicity." I think it only ran for like three episodes, but I always felt pretty guilty watching that.
I like that the implication there is you watched "Felicity" and enjoyed it as well.
SS: Did I say that?
It sounded like it. I did! I can admit that.
SS: I watched a little "Felicity." I watched "90210." The whole scene, man. That was me.

Preparing for a Camping Trip
April 7, 2014 by Cynthia Baum · Leave a Comment
My previous post about getting organized when preparing for a camping trip comes in handy for all campers, not just those with small kids. As part of your preparation, read this great checklist.
Still, you might figure out you need a few more supplies. When planning for big purchases, it always pays to shop around and do all your research so that you buy exactly what you need and pay as little as possible for each item.
I am a huge fan of couponing and buying secondhand myself, but more importantly, I like to feel confident when making a purchase and not feel like I'm getting ripped off. This comes into play when planning to purchase new camping supplies, whether it is for a large item or relatively small one. Check out the deals at Camping World for your next shopping trip.
The list shown above will help you make sure you have everything you're going to need while camping. It's also a great resource to use as a buying guide for things you still need to purchase. It's mandatory, in my opinion, to work off of a checklist since it will help you stay organized while also preventing you from over-spending or going on a mini-shopping spree for things not on the list (easy to do in an excited moment when you are at the store checking out all the cool displays).
Happy shopping and best of luck finding some great deals while preparing for a camping trip of a lifetime.

Halton Regional Police is still trying to determine why a young man died after the car he was driving left a Burlington roadway at a high rate speed, mounted a curb, plowed through a parkette and flew over a cliff into Lake Ontario last weekend.
The Collision Reconstruction Unit (CRU) of Halton police is investigating the fatal accident, believed to have occurred around 2 a.m. last Saturday (Oct. 19).
The early morning collision claimed the life of a 21-year-old Burlington man. Police say the victim has been identified but they are not releasing the name.
Investigators say the vehicle, a 2007 Volkswagen, was southbound on Walker's Line, south of Lakeshore Road, when it mounted the curb at the dead end, traveled through a small park, went through a chainlink fence and plunged into the lake below.
Det.-Sgt. Paul Davies of the CRU estimated the car was travelling 130 km/h in the residential area when it left the roadway.
It passed through about 40 metres (130 feet) of parkland before going over the edge, passing over the tops of trees down below and flying beyond a breakwall before hitting the water.
There was no indication of braking at any point, said Davies.
It wasn't until almost eight hours later, around 9:45 a.m., that police were called to the foot of Walker's Line after a resident, whose home is beside the parkette, looked out a window and saw a vehicle upside down in the lake.
The car ended up about 40 metres from shore.
Burlington firefighters retrieved the lone body found in the vehicle around 10:15 a.m. No one else is believed to have been in the car.
It wasn't until around 9 p.m. that night the car was able to be removed from the water by a tow truck with a long boom, due to the inaccessibility of the area.
Walker's Line was closed south of Lakeshore for eight hours while the CRU investigated. The Halton police Marine Unit assisted in the recovery operation.
Davies said two homeowners near the parkette both heard loud booms around 2 a.m., with one reporting it shook their house. They reported looking out their windows but saw nothing. Neither homeowner called police.
An autopsy on the victim was done yesterday (Tuesday). Police are awaiting toxicology results.
Investigators do not suspect foul play, said Davies.
Detectives have interviewed the man's family, friends and girlfriend and are trying to piece together his last movements and learn more about his state of mind that evening.
Davies said they have gleaned some information about the victim's whereabouts before the accident through a cellphone trace. He was in the area of Pearson airport in Toronto earlier that night and also had been speaking to a friend on his cellphone.
Anyone with information about the accident should call the CRU at 905-634-1831, ext. 5420.

Stock futures fall on discouraging news from AsiaMarch 10, 2014 @ 6:20 am (Updated: 6:30 am - 3/10/14 )

See all photos
Wall Street was poised for a subdued opening Monday as U.S. stock futures fell in pre-market trading. The futures were down following disappointing economic news from China and Japan.
KEEPING SCORE: Dow Jones industrial average futures fell 39 points, or 0.2 percent, to 16,409. Standard & Poor's 500 index futures slipped four points, also 0.2 percent, to 1,873. Nasdaq futures fell four points, or 0.1 percent, 3,699.50.
CHINA WORRIES: China's exports fell by an unexpectedly large 18 percent in February, reinforcing fears about the outlook for the world's second-largest economy after the United States. Meanwhile, Japan, the world's third largest economy, reported a record current account deficit for January and lowered its economic growth estimate for the October-December quarter to 0.7 percent from 1 percent.
EUROPE: The FTSE 100 index of leading British shares was barely changed. Germany's DAX fell 0.3 percent. The CAC-40 in France bucked the prevailing trend and rose 0.5 percent.
ASIAN MARKET: Earlier in Asia, Japan's Nikkei 225 closed down 1 percent and China's Shanghai Composite plunged 2.9 percent. Hong Kong's Hang Seng dropped 1.8 percent. A notable mover was Malaysia Airlines, which fell sharply following the disappearance of one its jets en route to Beijing.

John Wayne, the late iconic American actor known as "Duke," was famous for his trademark long drawl of an accent in his many Westerns. When playing the role of a Roman Centurian in "The Greatest Story Ever Told," he had to deliver the line during the cruxification scene at the end of the film, "Truly, this man was the son of God." Allegedly, director George Stevens, unhappy with the Duke's many takes, pleaded, "John, this is a dramatic ending, say it with more awe." Aided by the directorial advice, the Duke repeated the scene, "Awwww, truly this man was the son of God."
The state of awe has recently been in the headlines a number of times. By definition, it is a complex mixture of emotions ranging from reverential respect mixed with fear or wonder. Of course, the anniversary of 9/11 this week reminds us of the awe and terror we all felt the day the modern world was changed forever. However, over the years, the word no longer means the same. Amongst the youth, "awesome" has come to take on much more positive connotations to the extent it has lost credibility as a platitude of admiration. But the state of awe in its positive mode of wonderment has recently been shown to alter peoples perception of time and decision-making in a positive way.
