Measuring Electrical Conductivity
Name: Jessica Status: Student Grade: 9-12 Location: OH Country: United States Date: January 2007
How do you test the electrical conductivity in metals?
Hi Jessica
Conductivity can be inferred by measuring the resistance. If you hook up a sample to be tested to a voltage source and measure the current going through the sample and the voltage across the sample, the resistance can be calculated from Ohm's law: R = E/I where R is resistance in ohms, E is voltage in volts and I is current in amperes. Once you have resistance, you can calculate resistivity. Resistivity is a factor, which when multiplied by the length of the sample and divided by its cross-sectional area, will yield the resistance. Conductivity is the reciprocal of the resistivity. The higher the conductivity, the easier it is to pass a current through the material.
Hope this helps.
Bob Froehlich
Hi Jessica,
Electrical resistance is tested with an Ohmmeter. This is a simple device that sends a measured current through a sample of the metal in question, and measures the voltage required to "push" this current through the metal. Ohm's Law states that the resistance (in Ohms) of a conductor is equal to the voltage (in Volts) required to drive a resulting current (in Amperes). To give an example, let us say that you have a sample of a long thin metal wire. You attach electrical contacts to each end and apply a voltage of (let us say) 1 Volt between each end of the wire. This 1 Volt difference from one end of the wire to the other, causes a current to flow down the wire. If the resulting current was 1 Ampere, then the resistance of the wire is 1 Ohm. If only 0.5 Ampere had resulted, then the wire's resistance would be 1 Volt divided by 0.5 Ampere, or 2 Ohms.

MHR > SEC Filings for MHR > Form 8-K on 23-Dec-2013 | All Recent SEC Filings |
Regulation FD Disclosure, Financial Statements and Exhibits
As previously reported by Magnum Hunter Resources Corporation (the "Company") in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three-months and nine-months ended September 30, 2013, (i) on June 27, 2013, Timothy Bassett filed a shareholder derivative suit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas on behalf of the Company against certain of the Company's current and former directors and senior officers (the "Texas Federal Derivative Case"); (ii) on September 16, 2013, Joseph Vitellone was substituted as plaintiff in the Texas Federal Derivative Case; and (iii) three other substantially similar putative shareholder derivative suits were filed in the 151st District Court of Harris County, Texas (the "Texas State Derivative Case"), in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the "New York Federal Derivative Case") and in the United States District Court of Delaware (the "Delaware Federal Derivative Case"). All these suits are collectively referred to as the Derivative Cases. The Derivative Cases assert that the individual defendants unjustly enriched themselves and breached their fiduciary duties to the Company by (i) publishing allegedly false and misleading statements to the Company's investors regarding the Company's business and financial position and results, and (ii) allegedly failing to maintain adequate internal controls. The complaints in the Derivative Cases demand that the defendants pay unspecified damages to the Company, including damages allegedly sustained by the Company as a result of the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties by the defendants, as well as disgorgement of profits and benefits allegedly obtained by the defendants, and reasonable attorneys', accountants' and experts' fees and costs to the plaintiffs.
On December 20, 2013, the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas issued an order granting the Company's and the individual defendants' motion to dismiss the Texas Federal Derivative Case and, accordingly, the Texas Federal Derivative Case has been dismissed. A copy of the court's order dismissing the Texas Federal Derivative Case is furnished as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Also, on December 13, 2013, the 151st District Court of Harris County, Texas dismissed the Texas State Derivative Case for want of prosecution.
In addition, the Company and the individual defendants have filed similar motions to dismiss the New York Federal Derivative Case and the Delaware Federal Derivative Case. These motions have not yet been decided.
As previously reported by the Company in its filings with the SEC, certain class action complaints have been filed against the Company and certain of its officers. The class action cases that remain ongoing have been consolidated in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. This consolidated case is referred to as the Securities Case. The complaints in the Securities Case allege that the Company made certain false or misleading statements in its filings with the SEC, including statements related to the Company's internal and financial controls, the calculation of non-cash share-based compensation expense, the late filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 (which was filed by the Company with the SEC in June 2013), the dismissal of the Company's previous independent registered accounting firm, and other matters identified in the Company's Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 16, 2013, as amended. The complaints demand that the defendants pay unspecified damages to the class action plaintiffs, including damages allegedly caused by the decline in the Company's stock price between February 22, 2013 and April 22, 2013. The Company and the individual defendants are vigorously defending the Securities Case, and intend to continue to do so.
It is possible that additional putative derivative suits and class action suits could be filed over these events.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including the related Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as otherwise expressly stated in such filing.
(d) Exhibits. Exhibit No. Description 99.1 Memorandum and Order of Dismissal by the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, dated December 20, 2013 |

Your iPhone replaces the roomful of equipment found in this 1991 Radio Shack ad
iPhones are expensive, even with the subsidies your mobile carrier provides. But if you add up all the tools you now carry around in your pocket instead of having to toss in your backpack while you travel, the savings are pretty remarkable. A recent post from the Buffalo, NY blog Trending Buffalo finally puts a price and perspective on how much tech we're actually carrying.
Writer Steve Cichon found and uploaded a Radio Shack ad circular from 1991 and, with the exception of 15" speakers and a radar detector, there was literally nothing found on the circular that your iPhone couldn't easily do. Thanks to the box in your pocket you've got a weather radio, AM/FM radio, headphones, calculator, video games, camcorder, cellular phone, Speed-Dial, voice mail, and tape recorder on you at all times.
Adding it all up Cichon discovered buying all of that gear would set you back $3,054.82 in 1991. Adjusted for inflation that's around $5,100 in modern dollars. You can see the circular ad below. Head over to Trending Buffalo to check out Cichon's run down of costs, and how you can get the same functionality out of your iPhone.

The UK's fastest-growing regional news network
See the full forecast for your area.
Sponsored by Britelite.
Kent police commissioner Ann Barnes has today said there will be an announcement about who is to be her youth czar "before too long".
It is now close to three months since interviews were carried out for the job after the original appointment of teenager Paris Brown to the post unravelled.
The teenager quit just six days into the job when it emerged she had posted offensive remarks on Twitter.
Mrs Barnes was appearing before MPs on the home affairs select committee who are investigating the work of crime commissioners.
The issue of why there had been no announcement was raised by Rochester and Strood MP Mark Reckless.
He asked why it was taking so long to confirm the appointment, given that interviews for the job took place in November last year.
In reply, Mrs Barnes said: "Because I am waiting for him or her to negotiate a start date.
"It has been quite complicated for various reasons that I am not going to go into here. There will be an announcement before very long and I am looking forward to my youth commissioner working very well."
Paris Brown, from Sheppey, quit in April last year after her Twitter comments emerged.
It later emerged there had been no vetting of her social media as part of the recruitment process.
A subsequent independent inquiry commissioned by Mrs Barnes said the recruitment process had not been flawed and was in accordance with existing policies.
In other comments today, Mrs Barnes denied the relationship between the crime commissioner and the chief constable was "too cosy".
She also defended the appointment of two of her campaign aides on short term contracts when she was elected in November 2012.
Peter Carroll, her campaign manager and Howard Cox have now left her team.

Hinamori Amu is a stylish punk rock girl who is liked and feared by her peers, but there's just one problem: she's actually a shy and quiet girl who can't seem to drop her self-fabricated facade! But when Amu finds three eggs in her bed, she had no idea her life would change forever. Out of the eggs pop Ran, Miki and Su, Amu's Guardian Charas; these being represent parts of Amu that she wishes she could be, even allowing Amu to transform into those parts at will! Now, with pressure from the other Guardians (including her crush, Hotori) to join their midst, dark sides of the psyche known as X Eggs to seal, and nefarious forces after a wish-granting egg known as the embryo, Amu's life has officially become more complicated!

James Maslow and Peta Murgatroyd: 25/30 By opening his shirt and revealing a passion for hard work and technique -- plus his insane abs -- James has suddenly emerged as one of my favorites after their gleaming white-and-tan salsa. Peta's new short layered haircut (or we might've just caught her on a rare non-extensions night) only enhanced the sleekness and speed of their routine, which ended with a triumphant and frankly unbelievable "revolving lift" that had her turning roughly 1.75 cartwheels in less than a second. Len advised James to work on his hip action, which is sort of a ringing endorsement from Len if you think about it. It means he actually thinks hip action from a male contestant is possible and wants to see him use it down the line.
Carrie Ann announced that James is in her DWTS Sexy Hall of Fame, along with Gilles Marini and…. Corbin Bleu? Huh?! I'm dying laughing. Oh. Of course -- he's in the audience. Now I really can't stop laughing.
Charlie White and Sharna Burgess: 25/30 After a quick lesson on James Bondishness from Arrogance Master Maks, our slight, blond, monogamous-for-five-years angel was ready for a sizzling tango. I got a distinct King Joffrey from Game of Thrones vibe from Charlie as he started out on his royal perch (though I must admit Cody Simpson is way more Joffrey-esque in the face than Charlie White) and enjoyed the idea of GOT suddenly "going electronic" and also taking place in the clouds. Hey, smoke machine! What's it been, like, a few minutes? Missed ya. Charlie confidently held his own in this tango -- and I gotta say, anyone who can draw attention away from Sharna during any dance is probably going to win. "You looked like Baryshnikov out there!" raved Carrie Ann. Whoa! "That's even better than the Sexy Hall of Fame," Tom correctly pointed out.
But alas, Len knocked the pair down a few points for breaking hold. The best part about Len's line, "You have to adhere, and if you don't, the judges go down on you" was Bruno trying everything within his power to maintain a straight face and not react facially. And he DID it! Marvelous segment all-around.
Danica McKellar and Valentin Chmerkovskiy: 24/30 Birthday boy Val tasked Danica with a samba routine he would dance with a professional partner, and despite a brief sobbing-in-the-storage-unit spell during rehearsals (it happens to the best of 'em), she was absolutely 100 percent up for it. Good God, that fringe! Danica's dress was basically all structured metallic fringe -- like, seriously weighty stuff. It's about time someone lent fringe the glimmer and heft and overall importance it has always deserved. Quite possibly my favorite fringe of all time! Also, Danica's "blooming out of the headband" 'do made her hair look like a bubble.
Bubbles 'n' Fringe would be an excellent bar/salon! We could have liiiiiiiiive viewing parties there every Monday. If you're in the market to buy a place that would fit this description, certainly let me know. I'll help decorate and come up with specialty cocktails. Sounds like a great deal for you, right?
But back to Danica's hair: That crimped blonde nonsense sprouting out on the sides was straight out of a Kevin Arnold nightmare, but I reveled in the fancy-jungle-cat nature of it all. In a way, it was special hair fringe. Bruno and Carrie Ann want Danica to focus on her transitions -- "When you get it right, you're gonna be a scorcher," promised Bruno. She's already on fire!

If new rumours are to be believed, then the US will not get the same octa-core Samsung Galaxy S4. Yes, according to the recent rumours, the US will only get the quad-core variant of the Samsung Galaxy S4, while the rest of the market will be enjoying the more powerful octa-core powered device. This is according to Bloomberg who cited "two people familiar with the product".
We have seen the US receive a dual-core Samsung Galaxy S3 while the rest of the market enjoyed the quad-core Samsung Galaxy S3 variant. So, this news is really nothing new and not even close to being unusual.
It also appears that US Samsung fans are not really affected with them receiving a quad-core variant of the Galaxy S4. Well, quad-core processors are still more than capable of handling the Android OS (new iterations) and even demanding apps. Maybe if the news is all about the US receiving a dual-core variant of the Galaxy S4 only, that is the only time we will hear them complaint about the whole thing.
Moving on to more news about the successor of the Samsung Galaxy S3, recently, Samsung Mobile USA released a teaser image of the Galaxy S4. If you look closely at it, you will notice how the new device basically resembles the Galaxy S3. According to reports, the Galaxy S4 could have a curved back just like its predecessor.
Also recently, we saw different versions of the Galaxy S4 leaks from different sources. But if you are to ask me, only of them actually conforms to what Samsung posted recently.
It is only a matter of hours before the world will finally witness the unveiling of the new Samsung flagship device. The question is, are you ready for it?

90% of children with two specific gene makers, and were prone to wheezing when they had a cold, developed Asthma by the age of six.
Kids with these occurences were nearly four times as likely to develop Asthma as those without the genetic markers and did not wheeze.
Researchers aren't sure how the genes and virus interact to cause asthma, but suggest pediatricians find ways to prevent wheezing in young children with the Asthma genes.

My daughter and I shared Carrie's bedroom on the second floor for two nights in early November. The room was lovely and spacious, and walking across the hall to the private bathroom was fine. The continental breakfast was different each day and came with fresh fruit, and quiche one day and lox and bagels the next day - and a great cup of coffee made with beans from a local coffee shop. Our host was charming and shared tips on local places to visit including the astonishing Decatur Farmers Market. I'm looking forward to another visit in the spring when the azaleas are blooming.

There is no Dining at this B&B. There are some breakfast type items that you are required to prepare for yourself and there is not a very nearby store to buy anything so the rations are limited.. No pizza delivery when we needed it so we had to call ahead and pick up the pizza which was the only available food. It was good, though. Note: we were offered eggs and bacon, but we had to cook it ourselves. I guess this is standard since I have never stayed in an American B&B, but in Europe, breakfast is in the dining room and fully prepared for you so this was unexpected. Took some adjusting on our part. There are no inside locks or latches of any kind on the doors to the rooms nor the bathrooms so anyone can enter while you are inside the room even when you are sleeping. One bedroom has two cutouts at the top of the wall so there is no privacy in that room.

I appreciate each review. Our guest reviewer stayed in the two bedroom apartment. The apartment has a living room and full kitchen. As is stated on our websites, the kitchen is stocked with breakfast items for self-serve. The refrigerator has quiche and fresh cut fruit from the farmers market, as well as milk, cream, Greek yogurt, baked goods and juice. Eggs & bacon if guest prefers. Pantry has cereal selection. Groceries are available, within one mile, at the farmers market, Kroger or WalMart. Ask us, happy to give directions and recommendations for dining and shopping. Guests in the other two guest rooms are served a Continental breakfast (7-10am) in our large kitchen. We do not cook breakfast. Note: 113 yr. old house has antique door hardware. Room locks have 'skeleton' keys. I've tagged the keys and will have them available. (I host guests, from around the globe, in my home daily. In 7 years of hosting, I've yet to have a guest walk into my bathroom or bedroom.)

We stayed in the apartment and had both bedrooms. The apartment was beautifully furnished and presented and the kitchen was stocked with a selection of pastries or breads, fresh fruit salad, yogurts and/or quiche to eat, all of which were delicious. Diana and Joe were great hosts and we would highly recommend it. Be aware that one of the bedrooms, although separate, is partially open (see the two openings on the virtual tour on the website) close to the ceiling and is therefore not soundproofed from the living area - this was not an issue for us, but might be for some guests. The other bedroom does not have the openings. Everything was just as it appeared in the virtual tour on the website. A great place to stay.

The farmhouse was so cute and had so much history. Unfortunately we stayed there to try and get away from our loud apartment and it wasn't much quieter there. If you are looking for a quiet nights rest stay in the upstairs room otherwise you will be listening to the guests' upstairs footsteps the whole time. That was a major let down. The hosts of the home were nice and friendly. I wasn't really expecting them to be "around" the whole time (sitting with us at breakfast and watching tv literally right outside our room). I guess it's just really casual that way. Overall I would really recommend staying here if you plan to stay upstairs, explore decatur during the day and for dinner, and don't mind company at breakfast!

Thank you for your review. There are squeaky floors in a 113 yr. old house. I have plans to update the upstairs guest room and will install larger area rugs (hope that will eliminate some squeaks). It is noted on this website, and our own site, that this is a "Private Home Bed and Breakfast." As owners, we live onsite. Our private living room is across the hall from the Candler guest room. There is a privacy door and our TV cannot be heard in the guest rooms. I agree that the upstairs guest room is more private. Both of these guest rooms have private bath in hall, not en suite. Future guests, please view our virtual tour on our website: http://www.mileybright.com/photo-gallery/
Also mentioned on this website, "a continental breakfast is served in the hosts' kitchen." Joe and I love our mornings spent with our worldly guests hearing of travel adventures and sharing favorite things to do in the Atlanta area. If guests prefer more privacy, I am happy to prepare a tray of breakfast items to take to their room or to enjoy on the veranda. I also prepare "go" cups of coffee and snacks to send off with early departing guests. To be totally cloistered for privacy, the two bedroom apartment can be rented as a one bedroom (contact host). The apartment has a full kitchen that is stocked with a self-served breakfast. We are flexible and accommodating to guest requests. Just let us know what you need!

We stayed for two nights in Florie's Bedroom. It was very nicely appointed and spacious. The king size bed and linens were lovely. Connie the cat reminded us of home and Joe and Diana sent us on our way to our friends' cookout with tomatoes from their beautiful garden. We were very happy we didn't pay more for a sterile Holiday Inn.
5 su aprile 21, 2012
My wife and I stayed in the apartment for over 3 weeks while our house was being used for a Clint Eastwood movie. This was way better than an extended stay hotel. It was great to have a kitchen and laundry available for such an extended period as well as the relaxing grounds. Diana and Joe were great hosts and made sure everything was right during our stay. They even let us borrow the cats for company. We highly recommend Mileybright!

Joe and Diane are great folks. Mileybright does not feel like a hotel; one feels like a guest in a friend's home. We had a birthday celebration in downtown Decatur which is minutes away, so the location was perfect. This home was boarded up and condemned in 1997 when Joe and Diane bought it. They have done an absolutely fabulous job of restoring it We would highly recommend Mileybright if you have occasion to be in or near Decatur, GA.

We stayed 2 nights at Mileybright while vacationing at nearby Stone Mtn. Joe and Diana were exceptional hosts. The house is gorgeous and kept clean. Diana went out of her way to find tasty pastries to go with the fresh fruit and yogurt. Some of the fruit was fresh from the garden. Both Joe and Diana helped us with directions to various locations, places to eat, etc. Overall outstanding visit!

My husband and I spent a night in the upstairs bedroom. The room was just beautiful- large with high ceiling, and furnished with interesting decor. A ceiling fan helps keep the room nice and cool. Very comfy bed. The bathroom was good, and it didn't really bother us that it was out in the hall rather than en-suite. You are the only guests that will be using it. We never heard any noise from other guestrooms or plumbing, perhaps since we were on the top floor. This home is 100 years old so the floors and doors squeak a bit as you would expect. I am a light sleeper so I did notice some street noise since this room is at the front of the house. Hosts were very laid back. Breakfast was super-casual, and we were allowed to eat whenever we were ready instead of a set time which was much appreciated. We LOVED LOVED LOVED downtown Decatur! It's a very short drive from the B&B, and loaded with quaint brick-and-mortar shops and restaurants. You can park your car and walk everywhere. Very pleasant, friendly and safe. A GREAT option if you're spending time in the Atlanta area. You can't beat the price, too!

We stayed in the bedroom with the other members of the family in the adjoining apartment. It was a great for us. The refrigerator was well stocked for us to cook a good breakfast and we especially enjoyed the nice bowl of fruit. The hospitality of Diana and Joe was outstanding and very much appreciated.

We stayed at this B&B for 5 days to attend a wedding in Decatur. I can say that Diane made our stay perfect. Even down to the fresh fruit salad in the kitchen. The B&B is just great. Steve in NC

My husband and I needed a place to stay after attending a party in Atlanta. Not wanting to spend the money for a midtown or downtown hotel, Mileybright fit the bill. Located just minutes from downtown Decatur, this bed and breakfast offered clean, wonderfully restored rooms and gorgeous grounds. Our room was large and the bed was very comfortable with especially soft sheets. The innkeepers were available if we needed them but not overbearing or intrusive. Affordable, comfortable and clean, I highly recommend this bed and breakfast.

We enjoyed our stay at Mileybright Farmhouse. It was very clean and peaceful.
4,6 su agosto 16, 2010
What a great decision! We needed a short-term place to live and picked the Mileybright and, WOW we were happy. The innkeepers are warm, welcoming, attentive, and flexible; The Apartment was everything we needed and more with a kitchen and 2 bedrooms; and the location was, well, ideal. It's great for early morning walks and close to restaurants and transportation. Dee & Joe are nice and so helpful. I want to thank them for the fresh fruit and vegetables. The bowl of unique cherry tomatoes… they were so sweet and juicy. The house is a grand old 'girl' that the innkeepers brought back with their own hands. Look at the 'in process' pics and you will appreciate the hard work it took to make the house look so nice. Thanks Joe and Dee, your inn is on our list of 'Must stay' when in the Atlanta metro!!!

Although we had directions, it was hard to find the B&B because it is hidden behind tall trees by the street and there is no marker to prepare you to find it. After several tries, we finally found the little street. Then, after coming back from a function at night, it took us forever to find the home again because everything is so dark in that block.
4,8 su maggio 22, 2010
I have stayed at Mileybright several times--always delightful. This time, a colleague from work & I stayed in the 2-bedroom apt and it was very special. Very comfortable to have a living room space in which to relax, a porch for an afternoon glass of wine and enjoy the spring weather. Look forward to more visits.

My husband and I stayed at Mileybright Farmhouse while visiting our daughter at Agnes Scott. Our room was spacious and lovely, with a gas fireplace and a very comfy bed. The furnishings are lovely and the inn is immaculate. We enjoyed talking with the owners, who are friendly, interesting and able to give us tips on places we might enjoy. The breakfasts were delicious, homemade and healthy. In the summer, we would enjoy something from their garden. It is lovely to sit on the front porch to read a book, with views of an expansive lawn and a lovely garden. We would highly recommend Mileybright!

I had a wonderful time at Mileybright Farmhouse. Joe was so helpful and the perfect host. The house is ABSOLUTELY beautiful and every imaginable luxury was provided. The photos and description provided simply don't do this B&B justice. You have to experience it for yourself.

I had a wonderful week at Mileybright. I had to work in the area for a week and had never stayed in a B&B in the US. I'm going back again in March and April.

I spent three nights at Joe's and Diana's B& B in Decatur when on a conference to Agnes Scott College and I have to say that this was by far my best B& B expoerience. Dinner was not part of the package but UI ended up having dinner with them pm two occasions. They are wonderful people and they have a wonderful establishment.

What a combination - an artfully recreated farm house and warm, friendly hospitality - beautiful and comfortable!!
4,6 su maggio 30, 2008
We have stayed at Mileybright twice with Joe and Diana and plan to return soon. We've stayed in two parts of the house--the king bedroom and, with family, in the two bedroom apartment--and have enjoyed both stays immensely. The house was beautifully decorated in December and cheery and bright in early Spring! We love the setting and proximity to downtown Decatur and enjoy spending the days in Atlanta. Joe and Diana are very knowledgeable about the area and are wonderful hosts. We enjoy coming home at night to Mileybright!

Colorful Mexican motif decorates this charming farmhouse from the 1920s. Tasteful hor d'ourves surprised us each evening. Comfortable. Secluded yet close to shopping. Would definitely recommend.

Mileybright is a great in town getaway. My wife and I live in Decatur, GA, a few miles from Mileybright. We stayed overnight in one of the bedrooms as a treat for our anniversary and we were very pleased. Joe and Diana are excellent hosts. The house is gorgeously restored and decorated. We loved the atmosphere, the silence and ambience. I will recommend this to all my friends and we will definitely be back.
5 su luglio 26, 2007
The hosts (Joe and Diana) were amazing, my husband and I immediately felt like we were more than guests in their beautiful home. We actually felt more like family. The home is absolutely amazing, the pictures can not capture the true essence and beauty of the restoration of this stately home. We stayed in the suite- which is actually more like a two bedroom home with two gorgeous fireplaces- very romantic! Diana even made us a special homemade anniversary cake which was such a nice treat!! I couldn't help myself and even took the rest of this treat home with me after our stay. My husband and I plan on returning when ever we can and will highly recommend this B&B to our friends and family.
5 su luglio 24, 2007
This place is AMAZING! Joe & Diana are perfect hosts & they have restored this farm house to better-than-before condition! It feels like home the minute you walk in & the apt is HUGE -- with working gas fireplace! They obviously lovingly decorated their home and THEN decided to rent rooms -- no cheap "rental" ANYTHING here! You won't believe the before & after pictures! We enjoyed several luxurious moments out on the "veranda" with the ceiling fans lazily circulating the air, watching the birds, cats &/or the rain from the comfort of a cozy couch & chairs. My 7 year old son proclaimed, "This is the most beautiful house I've ever seen!" ;) Enjoy!!

Pretty great story from Jalen Rose right here — talking about how you're not supposed to Bruce Bowen your opponents, except for the one time he did that exact same thing to Kobe Bryant in the 2000 NBA Finals. And though Jalen equivocates a little bit at the end there, claiming he's not really sure if he stuck his foot under Kobe's on purpose of not, watching the play makes it pretty obvious.
Just look at how Jalen juts his leg out, basically mirroring the worst Bruce Bowens that Bruce ever Bowened. Pretty anti-cool move.
However, as Jalen said, eventually Kobe Bryant hung 81 on a Jalen Rose team a few years later. And knowing Kobe, he probably did it because he remembers spraining his ankle on Jalen Rose. That guy won't let anything slide, especially not one of the jerkiest moves you can pull on a basketball court.

After volunteering maintenance and advice at our library for a number of years, the board now wants to hire me for larger projects, including shrub renovation, bed design and installation, and continuing maintenance.
I would love to do this, but I don't have an inkling as to how to charge or detail the terms of a contract. I have 20yrs experience and lots of self-education in horticulture, so I'm certainly worth more than minimum wage labor, but I don't want to over-charge either. Hope someone can help!
Follow-Up Postings:
In my neck of the woods, landscape labor (unskilled) is billed out at $35-45 per man hour. Landscape design services at $50-$90 per hour. If you run your income thru a legitimate business you pay about a third of your income in taxes, etc. You've probably spoiled them by "volunteering" for so many years so they may have a hard time adjusting to paying you. You might want to call around to some reputable landscape companies and generally ask their rates for the types of things you'll be doing so you'll have some ammunition to defend your fees. Good Luck! |

Will regular knock out roses survive winter in Aurora without any winter protection, or should I expect them to die to the ground? Thanks. |

Supposedly they are hardy to zone 5, which would be safe for Aurora, Colorado, at least during most winters. A little winter protection might be wise if you're worried, especially if they are grafted and not own-root roses. But they are probably safe for the average Aurora winter. There are plenty of reports of them surviving zone 4 winters in places like Wisconsin and Minnesota. |
ok, thanks polygonum. I'll try that. |
We have two chain hardware store-type knock out roses that had a very hard winter this year (as did all of our roses and everything else in our garden). We pruned a lot of dead branches, fertilized, fought off an aphid infestation, and now both knock-outs are bigger than last year, with lots of nice blooms. |
thanks for the info, GLiz! My brother's not much of a gardener, but at least I'll know what to expect when I visit his garden. |

Def Leppard rescheduled
Yo, the concert everyone seemed bummed about being cancelled a couple of months back is back on. Def Leppard recently announced that they, along with Cheap Trick, have rescheduled their August 10th show to November 24th. I was told if you are still hanging on to your tickets from the original date, use them because they'll still work for this show (and that even includes the tickets you won from JACK-fm).
Oh, and you may have noticed that Poison will not be apart of the show. There's no word yet it if there's going to be a band to replace them at the new show. Confused? Anyhow, they still have seats available for the show and tickets are on sale now at all Ticketmaster locations.
That's all I got...

Adobo-Rubbed Chicken
- 4 teaspoon(s) chili powder, preferably made with New Mexico or ancho chiles (see Note)
- 2 tablespoon(s) lime juice
- 2 tablespoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon(s) ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon(s) onion powder
- 1 teaspoon(s) garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper
- 3 8-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed
Mole Sauce
- 3 dried ancho or New Mexico chiles (see Note)
- 2 cup(s) boiling water
- 3 medium tomatoes, quartered and seeded
- 1/2 cup(s) onion, chopped
- 2 clove(s) garlic, peeled
- 2 tablespoon(s) red-wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon(s) all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon(s) sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper
- teaspoon(s) cayenne pepper
- 1 pinch(s) ground cloves
- 1 tablespoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil
- tablespoon(s) salt
Sweet and Sour Vegetables
- 2 cup(s) diced carrot
- 1 cup(s) diced summer squash
- 1/4 cup(s) distilled white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon(s) dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon(s) sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper, plus more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
- 12 tostada shells (see Tip)
- To prepare adobo rub and chicken: Combine chili powder, lime juice, oil, cumin, onion powder, garlic power, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub 2 tablespoons of adobo rub generously all over chicken breasts (the remaining rub can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days). Let marinate for 30 minutes or wrap in plastic and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
- To prepare mole sauce: Tear chiles into pieces; discard stems and seeds. Place in a bowl, add boiling water, and soak until the chiles are soft, about 30 minutes. Pour the chiles and soaking liquid into a blender. Add tomatoes, onion, garlic, vinegar, flour, sugar, cumin, pepper, cayenne to taste, and cloves; blend until smooth. Strain the sauce through a sieve to filter out any remaining seeds and skins, pressing out as much liquid as possible from the solids. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sauce and cook, stirring frequently, until it thickens and reduces to about 2 cups, 10 to 20 minutes. Season with 3/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- To prepare sweet and sour vegetables: Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add carrots and cook for 7 minutes. Add squash, vinegar, oregano, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Continue cooking until the vegetables are just tender, 2 to 3 minutes more. Drain, transfer to a bowl, and season with more pepper to taste. Set aside to cool.
- About 20 minutes before you're ready to grill the chicken, preheat grill to medium.
- Oil the grill rack (see Tip). Grill the chicken until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F, 6 to 8 minutes per side. Transfer to a clean cutting board, let rest for 5 minutes and slice into 1/2-inch strips.
- To assemble tostadas: Place 2 tostada shells on each plate. Drizzle about 2 tablespoons of the mole sauce over each tostada, then top each with about 2 1/2 tablespoons of the vegetables. Divide the chicken among the tostadas and drizzle with more mole sauce. Serve with taco garnishes as desired.
Exchanges: 2 starch, 1 vegetable, 3 lean meat, 3 fat. Carbohydrate Servings: 1 1/2. Nutrition Bonus: Vitamin A (195% daily value), Vitamin C (32% dv), Potassium (25% dv), Magnesium (18% dv), Iron (16% dv).
Tips & Techniques
Note: Mildly spicy dried chiles, such as ancho or New Mexico, add moderate heat and rich flavor to Mexican sauces like mole. Chili powder made from these chiles has more flavor than American-style blends. Look for whole dried chiles in the produce section of large supermarkets and New Mexico or ancho chili powder in the specialty-spice section of large supermarkets or online at penzeys.com.
Kitchen tips:
To make your own tostadas: Heat about 1/2 inch canola oil or peanut oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add a corn tortilla and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat until all tortillas are cooked, reducing heat, if necessary, to prevent the oil from smoking or splattering.
To oil a grill rack, oil a folded paper towel, hold it with tongs and rub it over the rack. (Do not use cooking spray on a hot grill.)

A coffee maker of true beauty
It has been a while since I start to consider of buying a coffeemaker.
I was initially torn between french press and drip coffee makers. Ultimately, my heart goes to drip but not just any drip. I am glad i had gone for Chemex.
Nowadays, this cool looking device makes me the envy of my peers and I have been getting tons of praises about it.

Nearly every consumer product has a restricted lifespan except for jewelry which just find its value increasing over time. In today's world, jewelry is such a commonly used term and I personally feel it is a term that's frequently misused. According to my definition, just the ones that are made of high quality stuff like silver, diamond and gold can be categorized as jewelry. But in today's world where low-priced products are flooding the marketplace, bulk of the jewelries discovered are imitation and one good example is the absolute number of fake diamond elephant necklaces. I'd not consider cheap replica to be real jewelry although I'm not a professional jeweler. The value of these replicas are not really so expensive that they are not even worth keeping in the best jewelry armoire. There are indeed so many things about jewelry that can be fascinating and here are only some of them.
A number of people pick their jewelries based on nothing but their visual attractiveness. Unaware that particular form of jewelry has been utilized as protective amulet and an elephant pendant necklace is one good example. Nonetheless, as time passes by, many of such popular symbols have evolved and adopted by mainstream consumers. Most of these consumers are ignorant concerning the meaning as attractiveness and style are the sole things on their heads when they make their jewelry choice. Therefore, if an infinity necklace pendant had been purchased by someone and you also ask them about the meaning it signifies, more likely than not, they'll not have the capacity to supply you with the right explanation. Jewelry manufacturers are intelligent enough to identify such consumers and this is the reason there are so many stunning and unique layouts to what is allegedly a symbolic or religious jewelry piece.
Jewelry has ever been one of the largest section of the retail industry. Internet shopping is increasingly popular particularly among the millenial generation who does a large amount of their jewelry shopping online. Savvy online shoppers are taking advantages of reduced prices and the convenience that are usually offered by online jewelry retailers while some people remain sceptical about buying jewelry online. There are many examples where I discovered the cost for exactly the same item to be lower on-line and one good example is the elephant necklace that I recently bought. Even for such bulky items asJewelry Armoire, you can sometimes have 50% savings compared to the price when you purchase them in the shop, you would need to pay.
You can probably see my fixation about jewelry and there is so much things we can discuss around. Nothing can prevent me from going on and on but I Will stop here for now. I need you to keep in mind that the next time you're taking a look at a beautiful piece of jewelry like an horseshoe pendant, do not merely be mesmerized by it but try and ask if there is any significance connected with that. Remember that jewelry is a woman's best friend which suggests that it's important that you do everything to protect your investment. Go through all the jewelry storage ideas prior to making your choice. Someone may be telling you that you ought to get the best jewelry armoire but remember that what works best for her mightn't be the best for you. As a last piece of guidance, I'd advise that you do not skimp as it pertains to jewelry storage because jewelry armoire might not be cheap but it's something which will show its worth through time.

In the matter of days, we will be ushering in the brand new year. I really believe the majority of us could be scaling back from our busy life and try to look back things that have and have not been done in 2013. One question that I always ask myself is what're the things that left the deepest impact in my memory. In my opinion the majority of us wouldn't only be looking right back but also looking forward to what the new year would bring.
Being a movie nut, a very natural question that came to my mind is what would be the biggest blockbuster movie of 2013 that I would remember for times ahead? I'm not the harshest movie experts but I'd still say several of the movies that have been coming out have not been quite good lately. There are some movies that are produced based on badly written texts and it's very common for blockbuster movies to be used simply as a display of the state-of-the-art visual effects capability.
So, what are my candidates for the most memorable movies in 2013? Here's my list.
- Gravity
- American Hustle
- Her
- 12 Years A Slave
- The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
- The Butler
Bread Maker will stay with you for several years! Do Not skimp on it!
I am able to bet that anybody who have watched the picture-perfect bakery impersonated in meryl Streep's Bakehouse in her film "It's Complex" would have their baking passion ignited. Among all the different culinary art subjects, one that consistently attracts great amount of curiosity however high drop-out rate is bread making. This only goes to show the degree of difficulty involved with mastering a piece of artwork and this one isn't any exception. Fire may function as the first thing desired but for anybody to excel in this art-form, it requires considerably over that and the amount of devotion and determination can be intimidating for most individuals. The practise of bread making has existed for a long time but in yesteryear, perhaps not everyone can start baking their own bread at home as the investment expense would be prohibitive. All seems set to change with the introduction of bread maker. Go through any bread maker evaluations and you will learn that while the top-rated bread machine enables you to bake breads that are edible, it generally takes considerably more to fit the pro. What exactly are the things you have to consider when looking for the finest breadmaker? Let us see.
Depending on the different bread maker assessments, one characteristic that many bread maker proprietors often rave about is the timer functionality. The notion behind the timer function is the one and only to allow you to tell the machine when it should start the baking procedure. It's simple to visualize when you'll find such attribute useful. Some people loves to get up in the morning to the aroma of freshly baked loaf of bread and this is the crucial characteristic that enables you to do exactly that. The other is where you love having the freshest bread for lunch after a long hours of work. Prior to setting the timer, it is possible to simply drop all the fixings in and let the baking procedure starts as programmed. It is strongly recommended that you just go through the important bread maker reviews rather than to jump the guide. Though they may be simple, it'd typically demand few experiment for you becoming a master of your machine.
In order for a kitchen gadget to promote well, look plays a very important function. Do you think you'd want to buy an appliance that's awful-looking but high-performance? I doubt so. Instead of the plastic alternative, you might want to contemplate the stainless steel physique if design and aesthetic is really a major worry to you personally. But keep in mind that the ultimate breadmakers which are made from plastic will typically cost less than the best makers which can be manufactured from stainless steel. Going for well-recognized bread maker brands for example Cuisinart is typically a safe bet as these brands are generally valued for his or her modern designs.
The introduction of automated bread maker provides new hope for the typical family who prefers to have the option of baking their own preservative-free loaves of bread. Families who desire to embark on fitter lifestyle are increasingly considering adopting bread maker and the best-rated bread makers often prove to be worthy investment. I always remind myself that the man I am is quite definitely determined by what I eat. What is significant in selecting the best breadmaker is to realize your demand and preference and do not blindly go for the most high-priced models. No one will be able to master their baking skill overnight. These machines may have already been designed to eliminate most of the guessworks but it doesn't imply you can be a master baker immediately.
read moreA brief self-introduction
It is a continuous personal fight that always goes on in my own head that if you do not have something for which you are totally obsessed with then you're missing out on things which are intensely ardent and wild in your life. But I need to declare that there are many who lead nothing but mediocre life and they just let their head rules over the heart to be capable to be obsessed with anything.
Let Us give this straightforward question a careful idea. If day in day out you're living exactly the same boring rhythm where there is nothing that excites you every morning and nothing to keep you wake up at night, I wager no one would consider such life as meaningful.
Perhaps I am at another extreme where I frequently uncover myself obsessed around may things. I am not positive about everyone else but I do not like to hide my love for something. I consider everyone of us is born with some sort of fires but it's completely up to us to chance upon it.
Honing my culinary abilities is what I've been doing ever since I found my love for cooking. I realize that the various cooking shows shown on TV are fantastic to start with but it takes actual exercises to actually understand what your location is and start enhancing.
Don't expect a smooth sailing journey though as I had encountered few horrifying encounters at the beginning such as burnt steak and even got my fingers cut while I was practicing to slice meat and vegetables. The journey is obviously not a bed of roses but it's one which you enjoy most when you have the fire for it.
It was the cooking shows that first inspired me but I discovered attending cooking classes to be more gratifying. I undoubtedly see my ability improving but it's the interaction with people of similar interest if you ask me that I locate most carry through and enjoyable.
Computer programming is one passion that I discovered not too long ago. At times, I mull over it and only if I'd unearthed this passion before in life, maybe I would have already been capable to do so substantially more.
Coming from a family of bankers, I have been exposed to the world of bankings and finances all throughout my life. I am not certain whether it is because I am a contrarian thinker or it is really the instance that I loathe banking. Instead, talking about programming brings in so much delight than talking about economics. I am not a programming pro (as yet) but I am sure that when driven by passion, I'd get there and it's only a matter of time.
Each one of us is unique but I totally consider that passion is something that we all have. Obsession is the term used by some people and gift is the term used by others. Whatever you may call it, they've been hidden within us and it is up to us to unravel them.
It's only when you have reached your deepest passion which you will be capable to look at yourself from fresh outlook and just then, life will be filled with this much energy and exhilaration. You'll be competent to live your life to the fullest, by being yourself merely by rediscovering your fires, which may bring in a lot of positivity in your lives.

There's no place better than home. That's why most of us are no stranger to the phrase 'home sweet home'. Aside from sitting on my desk, I spend big mass of my time at home, in the kitchen and that is why kitchen is to me, my most important section of your house. But it still depends on your lifestyle and enthusiasm in life and I'm sure some of you'd have another thought than mine. I would not be surprised even if you inform me that kitchen is the last-place in the home that you would want to spend time at but I suppose that you do not belong to that team of people. Should you spend tons of your time in the kitchen, I'm sure you'll agree it is very important to consistently get only the best home appliances. In this article, Iwill share a couple of items that I love most in the kitchen and the process believed that continued my mind before creating my buys.
Thanks to all the junk-food chains sprouting up around the country, the amount of obese Americans is higher than in another part of the globe. I am happy that it's not all bad news and there has lately been campaigns that fight the unhealthy foods insurgence and attempt to promote healthier diets. If you speak to most health pros and even your family physicians, I believe one of their recommendations would be to consume a glass of fruit or green smoothies possibly early each day. The easiest choice is definitely to head to the supermarket shelves and grab those easily made yoghurts or shakes, but making your own smoothies is always the wiser option. If as advocated by the experts, you consume a glass of juice every day, getting the best citrus juicer is some thing that you need to seriously contemplate. As a fundamental, it is better to understand the difference between masticating compared to the regular juicer. The best masticating juicer will not come cheap but if you go through all the juicer reviews, you'll realize why this is so. If you have used a masticating juicer yourself, you will realize that it is going to not only create a fitter juice but also a much better tasting one.
If there's one apparently simple kitchen equipment innovation that means the planet to kitchen owners, it would be immersion blender. There are some who would argue that this is not the best blender sort to possess chiefly because its suitability to make great smoothies is rather small. The argument isn't absolutely invalid but anybody who has ever used the best-rated hand blender before will tell you how this apparently simple innovation has altered their kitchen and meal preparation experiences. Unique dishes that will be easier to prepare when working with the top-rated hand blenders contain soup and purees. As smoothies devices are typically designed with opening on top, even the finest smoothie makers won't manage to offer what immersion blenders can. This will involve the pouring in and from your soup or puree content which might frequently result in mess on the kitchen best.
You'd likely have the ability to feel my delight after I get to discuss the stuffs that go in to my kitchen. Simply the best kitchen appliances will make the cut for you if you're like me, constantly excited to talk about our kitchen. If you're intent on changing your diet for healthier living, getting the ultimate smoothie blenders for smoothies is essential as smooth and good tasting smoothie holds the key to your diet success. Some of the healhiest sort of dishes are soup and puree but if you need to make your life simpler, you will undoubtedly need to consider obtaining the finest immersion blender. It's typically recommended that you simply try to find some of the Best Blender reviews instead of randomly picking one that you see on the shelves as how many options can easily lead one to confusion.

Swift hint: The best way to pick a good vacuum cleaner
It is an indisputable fact that vacuums and parents are inseparable, the same as diamonds is always to beauty. Many of us must deal with household cleaning sooner or later in our life. Family rules influence the cleaning; which may be askew towards some individuals who are relieved from the job and perhaps not others. Either way, in the span of time as you move into your own property you will still need to handle cleaning tasks. You'll need a trusted vacuum cleaner to help you from this particular task, and for this reason, the best vacuum cleaner reviews really are a must-read.
As with the variety of tools that are being released, you'll also find several types of vacuum cleaner in the market, though the latter is developing way slower compared to the former. Something that makes us unique as human is that we are constantly growing and change is constant within our life. No matter how properly designed a vacuum is, it may be good today but may be irrelevant tomorrow. You may have read via a large amount of vacuum cleaner reviews but you also have to think about that some Dyson vacuum reviews published many years back are not anymore at par with the newest models. Thus, seeking good vacuum cleaners can not be categorized as an easy process.
Ask everybody about their regular home cleaning experience, and they'd all mention the floor cleaners and how outstanding the appliance is; moreover, no effective cleaning could occur without the appliance. If you're an advent in the area of cleansing, then you may succeed in getting the households absolutely cleaned manually; But you may maybe not be restored from creating some back problems that result from the normal folding during the manual sweeping and scrubbing of the floor. In most vacuum reviews, this is one of the most common reasons that triggers the switch to vacuums. A selected number of the vacuum cleaners are expensive; But with a suitable research, then the best vacuum cleaners could be the cheapest.
When it comes to vacuum shopping, there are numerous ways to cut costs. If you choose the brick-and-motor retail stores like Cotsco for the applying shopping; then, you may have to consider going during your mail for their trade discounts, from the occasional e-mails they send. But when you shop online frequently, ensure you browse the rates offered at these several places: Amazon, Best Buy and Sears. The best vacuums in 2014 are readily available in Amazon at irresistible rates. Some on-line suppliers offer discount vouchers, especially all through the Black Friday. Needless to say, the issue to many non-savvy online shoppers is finding these deals.
The amount of maintenance required is one important factor that you need to consider when investing in a vacuum cleaner. An excellent vacuum cleaner is of course one that needs as little care as possible. However seriously speaking, such thinking might not be reasonable after all. A vacuum cleaner is made of many complex components assembled to work together and hence it's nearly impossible to come up with a design that is effective but requires no maintenance. I'm not saying it is impossible as I've no way of predicting the future but at least that is true given the present state-of-the-art technology. Striving towards finding one that necessitates less but definitely not the least level of maintenance will be a more sensible expectation.
While you can see, there are various techniques one can look for a hoover. The issue is perhaps not concerning the lack of choices but the overwhelming choices, which will be quite interesting. The main element is even though you think you are buying from the big boys including including Bissell, it's advisable to do your research and finding bissell vacuum reviews shouldn't be too hard. You have to recognize that the best-selling vacuum cleaners list changes each year. Make sure that you are referring to the newest 2014 vacuum reviews when you are doing your research.
read moreHow essential are cookware set evaluations in assisting one to select excellent cookware sets?
If you've been seeing Iron Chef America, you'd be convinced that becoming a leading chef is one that is all about glamour. Nothing can be farther from reality and if you need to learn how tough life is as a chef, you should just read the biography of skilled chefs like Jamie Oliver.

Anyone can readily be fascinated about it and even try it out and yet just a couple of handful will make it in the long run. The very first step to realizing your aspiration to be a good chef is always to be equipped with a superb cookware set. How vital good cookware is to a chef is similar to asking how essential good rifle is to a soldier.
It is extremely very important to contemplate the stuff that's used to make the pot or pan which you're purchasing. Regularly at times, what stands between the finest pot and pan sets and the mediocre ones is the material quality. When you are reading the different cookware reviews, you will need to keep an open mind. There are always different grades to exactly the same material and the different grade of stainless steel is only one example.
The vast majority of cooking products sold nowadays are either made of cast iron or stainless steel. Cast iron is the stuff that's been used since ancient time. Pockets of cast iron enthusiasts stay while cast iron is slowing dropping its appeal among most of younger generations. They're usually not newbies and they have found the actual advantages of it when compared with other stuff kinds. The most popular choice today is stainless steel. But recall that stainless steel is a poor heat conductor. Highly rated stainless steel cookware such as All Clad, normally features multiple layers of cladding at the base. Copper and aluminium – metals with exceptional heat conductivity – are used-which result in faster heating time and more uniform heat distribution.
Serious cooks who need only the best quality of meals, know how significant it is to find the best pan and pot sets and these men will spare no effort in scrutinizing every critical review they can locate. But before jumping into it straight-away, you should know exactly what you want. Trust me, this will save you tons of time and never let your special efforts head to the drain. If because the start you are all made up about cast-iron, you'll be able to skip stainless steel Cookware Reviews completely. Ask your self what advantage will it bring to you personally to understand the best stainless steel set when what you need is really the best cast iron set.

The bush is one of the things in Australia that no one tells you about. Before my trip, I thought that in order to see it I would have to climb into a jeep and venture hours into the interior. I didn't imagine that any place on the coast (90 percent of Australia's population lives within 100 miles of the ocean) would be wild enough to nurture bush. But between the capes, at least, bush is pretty much everything that is not a town, a farm, a vineyard, a beach, or a road.
If a mind-clearing bush walk is never far away, neither is a kangaroo, or two or three or seven. To anyone who's grown up in America, kangaroos inhabit coloring books, cartoons, and the zoo. In their native land I thought that one might be brought out, on a leash, perhaps, as a marsupial curiosity. But the shy roos (as you quickly start calling them here, trying to win points with the locals) are to this pocket of Australia what deer are, say, to Lenox, Massachusetts. Roo-crossing signs put drivers on guard, but to limit damage—and stop the 200-pound animals from crashing through the windshield—many cars are equipped with front-mounted "roo bars."
The advice about how to handle a confrontation is chilling: "Hit the roo. If you try to swerve it will probably jump into your path anyway, and you risk hitting a tree or an oncoming car. That's how people kill themselves." The only thing that made my pulse race faster than a prancing roo was a dead one on the side of the road, a common sight.
The third thing no one prepares you for is the similarities with England. Does everybody but me know that "God Save the Queen" is still played in Australia because Elizabeth II is still the country's nominal head of state?Did I really sleep through that much of high school?Then there are the cream teas, the electrical sockets that you have to bend down to switch on, the soggy and foul terry-cloth runners on pub bars, the blithe refusal to acknowledge any advances made in domestic heating after the construction of Windsor Castle ("A cardy will do tonight, luv, don't you think?" "No, I don't think"), and the guesthouses.
And I am sad to report that many of Margaret River's guesthouses brought back my worst memories of traveling in the English countryside—electric kettles in the guest rooms, depressing little tubs of long-life milk, yeast extract beside the make-it-yourself toaster on the breakfast buffet, and overbearing women who seem to specialize in running such establishments. On my third morning one of these enchanting ladies banged on my door at 8:15, literally commandeering me for breakfast.
Outraged, I was ready to take the next flight out until a local put her behavior into perspective. "Ten years ago, many of the people now in tourist-related businesses in Margaret River were farmers," he explained. "Don't take it personally: your landlady was drawing on the habit of waking up the farmhands to milk the cows."
Much is also forgiven because of the fourth thing Australia hides under a bushel: its people. Even my least-favorite landlady went into town just to buy me an extension cord so that I could use the reception-area phone in my room, in private. Indeed, during seven days of dealing with everyone from waiters to gas-station attendants to supermarket cashiers, I don't think I had a single unpleasant exchange. "No worries"—the standard response to anything asked—became the two loveliest words in the English language. Western Australians claim niceness and liberalism as regional traits. They are, they assured me, the nicest and least-conservative Australians in Australia.
Not all the guesthouses and cottages should be ruled out. Bridgefield, built in 1929, with handsome doors and wainscoting in jarrah, the native hardwood, is owned by Tom Higgins. His knowledge of local history is inestimable—his English ancestors were on the first ship to arrive in the area, in 1830, and he has the documents and photographs to back it up. Once he has your ear, though, it may be hard to get it back. And while the house is a bit close to town for some, Margaret River walking trails are only 100 yards from the front door.
For vernacular style, no accommodations match WillowWood's immaculately rehabilitated 1920's "group settlers cottages," on the lip of a sheep farm. WillowWood's proprietor, Jill Hinde, explained that after World War I an agreement between Western Australia and Britain offered English soldiers, many without any agricultural experience, the chance to become dairy farmers here in what were called group settlements. "What they didn't say was that each man had to clear ten acres of hardwood forest with a crosscut saw," she said. "The soldiers were terribly misled, and the farms were never viable." Mrs. Hinde is a scholar of settler architecture the way some are scholars of Palladian villas.
Nothing takes precedence over historical correctness in her cottages. The 80-year-old weatherboards facing one were salvaged from the assembly hall of a neighboring high school, agonizingly transported by car trailer, and reversed so that the painted sides face in. Demolition yards supplied the vintage windows. When she ran out of period scotia she had it copied. Settler-cottage ceilings were originally of lath and plaster, with battens to mask the joints. WillowWood's ceilings have no joints, but Hinde insisted on battens nevertheless. Everything is as it would have been for the immigrant in the 1920's—the corrugated-metal roofs, the tongue-and-groove floorboards, the bronze window stays with faint copper highlights ("Brass would have been wrong"), even the Bakelite sockets and wall switches mounted on beveled jarrah blocks. The upright oak settee covered in brocade gives you a backache just looking at it.
As you might imagine, there is nothing Mrs. Hinde will not do for her guests. "In the morning I run over from the main house with breakfast on a mahogany tray—grilled sausages stuffed with prunes and wrapped in bacon, ham and cheddar and parsley mousse. Dinner always includes decanted port, chocolate truffles, plunger coffee, nibblies—oh, I guess I should call them hors d'oeuvres."She forgot to mention that the entire meal is served on her own exquisite Victorian silver.
Mrs. Hinde sent me to see two friends who also offer lodgings, and I knew that because she had recommended them I wouldn't be disappointed. Wildbrook is an adorable former shearer's cottage on a sheep and horse farm that dates from the turn of the century. "When doing up the cottage we tried to keep everything old-y," says owner Colleen Wild. "Our idea was to make people feel like part of the farm and family without intruding on their privacy."
In their modern, shipshape way, Waterfall Cottages are just as attractive. Huge expanses of glass bring the outside in. All the cottages have a light, airy feel, but number eight has a view of a part of the Margaret River that tumbles into a waterfall.

Luis Suarez victim of reputation - Steven Gerrard & Glen Johnson
Liverpool's Steven Gerrard and Glen Johnson believe Luis Suarez is a victim of his own reputation and is not being treated fairly by referees.
Suarez had a penalty appeal turned down in the 2-1 loss to Manchester United.
"It's down to referees to not judge him. I think even when Luis does get blatant penalties, now he doesn't get them," said captain Gerrard.
Suarez's disciplinary history
- 3 March 2012: Wins penalty after being brought down by Arsenal's Wojciech Szczesny
- 24 March 2012: Booked by Lee Mason for handball against Wigan
- 7 April 2012: Referee Michael Oliver shows Suarez a yellow card for "simulation" against Aston Villa
- 15 September 2012: Booked after falling in the area following a challenge from John O'Shea
Johnson added: "Referees have to forget about who they are looking at and not let the past affect their decision."
The striker, who has not won a penalty for Liverpool since the 2-1 defeat by Arsenal in March, gained a reputation by some for play acting last season, with Wigan manager Roberto Martinez describing the 25-year-old as an "artist at getting free-kicks".
The Uruguay international was booked for diving against Sunderland 10 days ago and has already picked up three bookings this season, causing manager Brendan Rodgers to warn the player to be careful.
England captain Gerrard believes Suarez should have been awarded a penalty against United after colliding with Johnny Evans, adding: "If it's not a penalty, don't give him one but if it's clear give it."
England right-back Johnson conceded the match-winning spot-kick at Anfield on Sunday after Antonio Valencia went down in the area and accused the United winger of cheating.
"Reputations go in front of people at times and because Valencia is not a known diver that is why he got the decision," said the defender.
"I almost guarantee if it was exactly the same situation and it was Luis and not Valencia then it wouldn't be a penalty. It is cheating at the end of the day, that's what people call it."
