Eastside Inside: Haute Happenings East of Lake Washington
Eastside Inside is all about what's haute and happening on the Eastside of Seattle. Events, live music, entertainment, theatre, galas, restaurants, happy hours, comedy clubs, parties, people, kids, animals, something interesting for everyone on the Eastside.
The 520 bridge toll will begin soon Eastsider's, so let's start to explore our home turf…..
The 520 tolls and construction are likely going to be an incredible burden on many Eastside commuters. To say the least, this is not something that anyone of us that has to commute or do business in Seattle is looking forward to. Unfortunately, it is a necessary evil to ensure that we still have a bridge, and one that can handle the ever-increasing traffic load in the future. [Read More]
"Truce"……A new spa in Bellevue, thought I was talking about something else?
"Truce" – No it's not between two people, it's between you and you're own body. Now isn't that what a person should focus on? Focusing on being the best person that one can be, is something that I truly believe is extremely important in your inward and outward health, physically and emotionally. And how you deal with it makes the difference on more levels then you know, unless you truly ignore it. Trust me, lately I've been around many loved ones that are enduring cancer and other ailments, and it seems that stress has been a big part of their health issues. That's why this girl is looking to focus on positive experiences in my life with people, actions, etc., and to live in a more Zen type of existence without conflict to the best of my ability. Oh, and hopefully I can find some humor among the seriousness to put a smile on my face. [Read More]

Checked out Laughing Buddha Nursery today
drasaid(zone 8)May 17, 2005
It is at 4516 Clearview Pkwy in Metarie, right across the street from Charvet's Nursery (a big nursery with a mean parrot and a lot of cool trees. Keep your distance from the red macaw!)
Laughing Buddha is small but interesting with a lot of things you would otherwise have to buy online (and pay godawful shipping on.) They also have hydroponic supplies in case you need them. They have a LOT of organic stuff (they are trying to get their chef's garden certified organic.)
They also have various Composters. Yes, they do.
Why no one else does is a mystery to me.
oh, phone # is 504-887-4336.

Bye-bye, Eric CantorJune 13,2014Pardon me. Im having trouble getting my thoughts together today. Im so upset about Eric Cantor.
Yes! The House majority leader was tossed out of office Tuesday in an apocalyptic, stunning, incredible earthquake of an election in Virginia that has left the nation absolutely floored in shock.
This is a 10 on the political Richter scale, announced Rep. Steve Israel, the chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. The Democrats were sort of gleeful about the whole situation, to tell the truth.
Cantor was beaten trounced, really by David Brat, an economics professor at Randolph-Macon College, who had no money and so little name recognition its possible that Cantor himself could not have picked him out in a crowd.
What could have happened? Was it Tea Party rage that sent nearly 14 percent of the eligible voters in Virginias 7th Congressional District stampeding to the polls, delivering a message that shook the nation to its core? Or was it something personal? Cantors not the most charismatic guy in the universe. Do you think his constituents sensed that he was spending election morning in a D.C. Starbucks, at what The Washington Post described as a monthly meeting with large donors and lobbyists?
Americans always get a little kick out of David and Goliath stories, even if as in this case David turns out to be a pet of right-wing commentators, who ran on a no amnesty! platform. We dont actually know a whole lot more about Brat at this point. His hobby is pickleball, which is apparently a mixture of badminton, tennis and Ping-Pong. It sounds very interesting, although not as much as Paul Ryans hobby of walking along a stream and trying to grab catfish by their throats.
The website for Brats candidacy noted that he served on Virginias Joint Advisory Board of Economists under two governors and claimed that everyone in the state comes to him for budgetary insight knowing that he tested his rural values against the intellectual elite while at Princeton. Actually, he went to Princeton Theological Seminary, which is an entirely different place. But at the moment, people are more fascinated by the fact that his entire election budget was $200,000, which is only slightly more than what Cantors campaign spent on steak dinners.
There are definitely some downsides to this development. Brat, who leads Randolph-Macons BB&T Moral Foundations of Capitalism program, once co-authored a paper on The Moral Foundations in Ayn Rand, and there is possibly nothing the nation needs less than a new Ayn Rand fan in Congress.
Also, we really do not need the Republicans in the House to become even more paranoid about a primary from the right. Theyve been nervous for a long time, but this is a whole new scenario. Its the difference between worrying about burglars and hearing that a gopher in your neighbors backyard suddenly grew to be 6 feet long, broke down the door and ate all the furniture.
Cantors district in Virginia is heavily Republican, so the Democratic nominee Jack Trammell, an associate sociology professor at Randolph-Macon College is a long shot. But you never can tell. Brat could wind up being a terrible candidate. In one of his first interviews after the victory, he was asked for his position on raising the minimum wage and replied: I dont have a well-crafted response on that one. Now, you could understand why a guy in his position wouldnt have a detailed plan for what to do about Syria, but an economics professor who has spent the last several months telling people that he wants to help working-class America really ought to have thought this one out.
And, by the way, what do you think is going on with the faculty at Randolph-Macon College?
But the election comes later. Why do you think Cantor blew the primary? Many observers think he lost touch with his constituents. This comes up a lot in congressional races but generally not with lawmakers who live within a two-hour drive of the Capitol.
Armed with a 26-1 cash advantage, Cantor apparently couldnt resist introducing voters to his hitherto unknown opponent by running attack ads, howling about Liberal College Professor David Brat and featuring pictures of Democratic Gov. Tim Kaine, who was in office for part of the time that Brat was on the economic advisory board.
In Virginia, Democrats and independents are allowed to vote in the Republican primary. Maybe some of them saw the ads and thought: Great! A liberal professor! And Tim Kaine was a great governor. At least he didnt get indicted like the last one.
Maybe not. But as the sun sinks on Eric Cantor, we have to reflect that one of the pluses to this story is that the House majority leader may have lost his seat because he made a mistake in presuming that Americans hate college professors more than professional politicians.

Data.com on FreeBSD 3.3 20
from the nice-coverage dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
followed by this nugget of truth later on...First, I should warn you that this review is written by a Linux weenie that arrived at that particular brand of UNIX via NetWare and Windows NT.
Well, that about sums this article up. Great to see *BSD in the press, but a more informed article would be nice...There's no doubt that FreeBSD is rock-solid and fast. It has proven itself as a commercial-grade Internet server that's secure and exceedingly affordable. To make the most of it however, you'll need plenty of time to explore FreeBSD and come to grips with the convoluted system configuration process.
First, I should warn you that this review is written by a Linux weenie that arrived at that particular brand of UNIX via NetWare and Windows NT.
What exactly is a Linux weenie? I mean, come on - why are Linux users "the enemy"? It just makes you seem spiteful that more people use Linux than *BSD.
I use both FreeBSD and Debian GNU/Linux. I am very satisfied with both OSs. As far as I am concerned, they are both sides of the same coin - I would love to see *BSD adopted by more people, because it really is a great OS. But that kind of attitude doesn't help things. Furthermore, BSD isn't the golden, perfect OS to which everyone should bow down in homage. It's good, yes. But it's not for everyone.
>>To make the most of it however, you'll need plenty of time to explore FreeBSD and come to grips with the convoluted system configuration process.
[..] a more informed article would be nice
I hate to break it to you, but IMHO sysinstall is definately a handful for new users - I would know, I didn't think very kindly of it the first time I installed FreeBSD. Now that I have gotten used to it, I think it's very useful - but there is definately room for improvement. Simply because someone thinks that sysinstall isn't easy to use is not reason to slam them for being un-informed.
I've seen this when people use one large partition for everything but he shows a severe lack of experience here. What was he on?
Root on my OpenBSD and FreeBSD machines are around 30 MB. This is big to allow for a couple core files.
The rest (/usr,
I thought Solaris was bad in that you needed 40MB root partitions, but this bozo uses 300MB.
For the record, I have firewalls with 20MB root, 50MB
So wouldn't it be neat if some of these OS reviews were by professionals rather than hobbyists? Someone who is fairly adept in 3 or more different Unixes who has some background to critisize in context?
How do they get these jobs?
Hey, I've had almost 12 months experience using a single operating system and I'd like to review some others.
And they get hired!
How about someone who has experience with some sysV derivitives (HP-UX, Solaris) some BSD things (bsd 4.2 stuff like SunOS, NeXTstep, perhaps another BSD4.4 take), and some of the odd stepchildren like Linux and AIX. I'd expect at least 3 of the above to be understood before a person was considered to be in a position of critic of the FreeBSD flavor.
Great to see *BSD in the press, but a more informed article would be nice...

In a New York Times piece about the Spurs history of finding foreign players, a crazy story has emerged about a mishap when trying to get Manu Ginobili's contract back from Argentina. Check out what happened to this poor intern: Hours before the Spurs' intern was to fly home from Buenos Aires, team officials said that he was strafed by a bird in a park. As he tidied up at a fountain, his backpack disappeared. Inside were Ginobili's signed contract, along with the intern's passport, cellphone and laptop. Luckily, an international sports crisis was averted. An assistant traveling to Buenos Aires soon after brought a fresh contract and returned it to Texas without incident. "No birds got to him," Sean Marks, the Spurs' director of basketball operations, said with a laugh. "We were all waiting for Manu's contract to show up on eBay. It hasn't yet." First of all, how great is being an intern for the Spurs? You get to go to Buenos Aires to deliver a contract? On the flipside, how panicked would you be after losing the contract and have to call you boss to explain that birds took it? I feel like we need a 20/20 sitdown with the intern.

Plant ID please :)
I see these large bushes around town flowering their little hearts out in winter. Can anyone tell me what it is? I'm NE coastal NC (Elizabeth City). This was taken last week, my daughter took it from the backseat while I was going 45 miles an hour, sorry it isn't clearer. Thanks!! Christy
Definitely Camelias.....Camellia japonica to be specific. They bloom in fall, winter, and early early spring, which is cool cause its not too common. They are evergreens with glossy leaves.
That pic is a little blurry, but camelias are so nice they are easy to spot.
Too bad they grow so slow!! We're military, and will most likely be transferred in two years. I know it was a blurry pic, but they definitely stand out, I figured they'd be pretty easy to figure out :). They're very pretty, I love how the petals pool around the base of the bush! Christy
I have to say that I also have Camillas in my yard and I used Miracle Grow Tree and Shrub fertilizer spikes in the spring and in the fall and my bushes have grown really fast. Not exponentially but they are a nice size AND they bloom starting in the fall through the spring. My plants right now are still in bloom. I have used those fertilizer stakes around all my plants they grow nicely and I don't really have a green thumb that produces magic so when I see something that works I stick to it LOL!!! these plants are a bit pricey but you can propagate by air layering.
Thanks!! I have a wannabe green thumb, but I really stink at it. My husband is better, but he really doesn't have to time to keep up with the stuff I start!! I'll give those a shot, I was at Lowe's looking at them the other day. I'll go back and pick some up. Thanks for the tip!!
I think I will :) Hopefully Lowe's will clearance some out soon!! I've done quite a bit to improve this property, in a few years someone else will have an abundant supply of blackberries and blueberries! I did pick up those Miracle Grow spikes, hopefully the Tea Olives and indian hawthorne's will bloom nicely this year :) Christy
I got one!! We ran two types of Azalea's down the back of the house (morning sun) and then I picked up a Rosehill Red Camellia just off center of the corner of the house. It's about 4 feet tall, and I got it at the Norfolk Botanical Garden annual plant sale on Mother's Day. It is so pretty, I can't wait to see it in bloom!!! Christy

securing trash bags
As an afterthought to another trash bag posting, I wanted to share a couple of methods I use to secure a trash bag in the can or wastebasket.
For large trash cans, I use a binder clip. That's the black thingie with the two wire squeezers on it. You can bend the wires down after fastening and the lid still fits. Just remember to take it off when you tie up the bag and put the garbage out!
For kitchen trash and wastebaskets I use the little plastic clippie from bread wrappers. Pull the bag over the sides, pull one end tight, twist, and clip.
I find both of these fast, easy and inexpensive ways to secure those darn bags.
I use 13 gallon trash bags in an 8 gallon trash can and don't find a need for clips. It hangs down on the sides about 6 inches and I tie the top with two edges when I put it in the trash cart. I buy inexpensive bags.

Maxell Digital Pen to use Anoto system
By Mike Hanlon
August 6, 2003
Thursday August 7, 2003
Maxell have announced the introduction of a "digital pen" based on the Anoto system. The pen stores everything you write on the specially imprinted pad in digital format by sending it directly to computer using a Bluetooth link.
The Anoto System uses a digital camera and advanced image-processor contained within the pen to transmit data wirelessly from paper to computer. The digital pen can be used on any piece of ordinary paper that has been printed with a special proprietary pattern visible to the naked eye only as a slightly off-white colour. When writing, the pen's camera takes infrared snapshots of this tiny grid more than every 1/50 second and the image processor converts this information into 'writing' in real-time.
The Maxell device is USB 2.0 compatible and the battery provides two hours of continuous use with 10 hours standby time - further details of the DP-101B digital pen were not available at the time of publication, but samples of the initial version are expected to be released in late August 2003.

...I was starting to think Florida wouldnt approve an increase this year due to lack of major storms over the past several years and the huge percent increases Florida has approved over the past few years.
As management stated in the conf call, if they got an increase, it wouldnt be as big as recent past ones since the recent huge increases have already rationalized the industry. But, again, I'm very happy with the 4.8%. I mean geeze, didnt they say that rates have gone up like 70% over the past four years or so......so on top of that, and considering we already know TCHC is very profitable at current rates; and we already know that the recent reinsurrance increase was less than three percent; the 4.8% is gravy.
They told US we would hear about a divi or buyback after 4 qrts of making money. I don't know if I missed something, in the call, but #$%$ do I know anyways. I've been long this thing since ballen was growing hair. The increase is great, but how about reinstating something...as they stated....
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I hope FNHC goes to 12 before I go bald.

The Palestinians do not have a free Palestinian State, because they do not take 'yes' for an answer.
They refused the 1927 Peel partition plan;
They refused the 1947 UN partition plan;
They refused to establish Palestine in the West band & Gaza until 1967;
They called for Israel's destruction before the 1967 war:
They refused to recognize Israel until 1993. As we know now, they were just implementing the first phase of the 3 phases plan for destruction of Israel;
They violate all agreements with Israel, refusing to dismantle Hamas and the rest of the terror organization;
And now they refuse to negotiate, as if they are doing some a favor if they agree to talk;
The Palestinians live the life they choose to live. They get what they deserve.
Spinoneone, I think you have quite a bit of a mess up there in your head, confusing religious mythical stories, History and International Right. Things that normally don't have that much to do with each other.
First, "Israel" was not found 4000 years ago or anything like that. Israel was found in 1948. Period. 62 years of history. That's it. You are confusing modern Israel with the Hebrew or the Jewish people's history, and even at that you also get it wrong. Despite of what they tell you in your religious texts, Jewish dominant presence in Canaan only lasted for around 1000 years (from the Omrid period in the 9th Century BC until the Roman period in 1st Century AD). If you look at that, Arab majoritarian presence since 638 AD until the western colonialist period amounts to over 1300 years
But the question here is not who was there fist, nor is it even who was there for the longer time (and we have seen that Jewish dominant presence probably wasn't more lasting than Arab one), but about who was actually living there for continuous generations when Western powers bursted in, allowing the artificial alteration of Palestine's demography without giving much of a damn about its indigenous population's will and putting them in a desperate situation to defend their land by any possible means.
All that was back in the 20th century, when International Law principles were being crafted to prevent the kind of abuses that had been the norm until then. Right of conquest wasn't acceptable anymore, as it isn't now. Bringing up the Arab conquest of the land in the 7th century to justify colonialist policies in the 20th and 21st is completely absurd. Even obscene. And since indigenous Arabs have not and will not forfeit their inalienable rights to their ancestors' land and to resist occupation, conflict will continue until Israel desists in its colonialist approach to it.
The bottom line is that this is not a religious war, but a colonial one, not dissimilar from the struggle carried out by native Americans against European settlers, Vietnamese against French and Americans, or blacks against Apartheid Afrikaaners. To imply that Christians need to be accomplices of Israel's crimes based on religious affiliation is just preposterous.
When was "Israel" founded? Variously, up to 4000 years ago. "Israel" has been conquered by many others, but the Jewish people have always endured there, always been resident there even as 2nd or even 3rd class citizens.
When was "Palestine" founded? Yasser Arafat declared Palestine a "state" in 1967. Jordan claimed the "West Bank" after the 1948-49 Israeli War of Independence, and annexed it as a legal part of Jordan. All residents were granted Jordanian passports. Jordan lost that territory as a result of the 1967 Six Day War, and relinquished her claims to the West Bank in 1981. Gaza was Egyptian administered territory until the 1967 war; Arafat "annexed" it.
When did Islam come to "Israel"? 638AD when the Byzantine army lost the Battle of Yarmuk and the Arab armies continued their sweep to the Atlantic. The Crusaders briefly reclaimed "The Holy Land" in the 12th and 13th centuries, but eventually lost to the Arabs again.
So, do we recognize the Arab claim as one of right of conquest? If so, do not the Israelis have an equally valid claim? Since the Western World has, typically, recognized the latest claimant to a territory taken by arms to be the one with the strongest claim [because unless we want to fight for it we have little choice], Israel's position would seem to be the stronger. Look at our actions following WWII and the huge population resettlements which followed, all with the more or less explicit acquiescence of the World's powers. Look at India and Pakistan between 1947 and 1950.
Then look at Islams exhortations to drive out the Infidel from "our" lands. In and of itself, this sets-up a permanent state of conflict between Muslim and Jew. And if one has paid any attention to the rockets and bombs from Hamas and Hizbollah falling on Israel, well...
The bottom line is that there are no innocents here. This is a religious state of war on both sides. From a strictly religious point of view, the Christians of this world should be siding with the Jews on this one because, if they finish the Jews, the Muslims will surely come after the Christians. After all, Allah commands them to do so.
Rkyanka, so long as there is occupation, Palestinians will not stop engaging in legitimate resistance, violent or otherwise, against the colonialist occupation regime. Israel is the one playing games by ignoring this fundamental issue, and anyone attributing this violence to religious prejudice or "terrorism" is glossing over the fact that the origin of this conflicts only appeared as soon as European Jewish colonialists declared their intentions to found a state on Arab land with full Western support and against the indigenous inhabitants' will. Native Arabs have just been reacting since like any other native people have been reacting to colonization, either in America, Vietnam, Indonesia or South Africa: with legitimate (if violent) resistance.
Anything else skirting around this issue will lead to continued war.
So long as there is still terrorism, Israel will not be secure enough to make any peace deal. This is reality, anything else skirting around this issue legitimizes the concept of "resistance" (i.e. armed conflict) as a viable alternative and will lead to continued war. Mitchell and the Economist are playing a game of smoke and mirrors by ignoring this fundamental issue (and for anyone attributing this violence to settlements, or borders of any configuration is glossing over the fact that Arab violence against Jews existed long before the formation of Israel during the Mandate period).
To those of us not immediately caught up in the struggle, those who can place some distance between ourselves and the sharper end of this conflict, the word 'tourist' can probably be applied with a fair degree of accuracy.
But we 'tourists' are many and the combatants in this arena are still relatively few. If the full weight and focus of our number were to be successfully brought to bear upon the problem, the result would then be a foregone conclusion. It is generally to the big battalions that victory is vouchsafed and, in that respect, the 'tourist' contingent would certainly qualify many times over.
But, as with all tourists, some spectacle must first be provided to ensure our attendance and, thereafter, to involve us sufficiently in the process to engage and keep our interest.
Not unlike most tourists, our stay here is of limited duration. We should, therefore, strive to make what may be our one and only visit something memorable and enduring.
So, yes, let's all get a move on because, in the end, it may actually be up to us to do the moving.
The objective is lasting peace in the Middle East, between Israel and the Palestinians and between Israel and the Arab nations. However that can only come with a foundation of justice.
The impediment to peace is an Israeli culture and leadership which views all Arabs as inferior, whether they are Palestinians, Arabs in neighboring states, Muslim or Christian, or even those that are Israeli citizens. Israel's laws assure the existance of a Jewish state where non-Jews can never achieve equality.
Israel has the economic and military strength which can assure peace by applying the very tenets of its Judaic heritage, namely truth, justice and concern for the welfare of those least able to help themselves. It can restore the balance and respect that existed between Jew, Muslim and Christian for centuries preceeding the 20th century and the Jewish migration from Europe. It can invest in and develop a regional partnership that can guarantee the security of all against any extremism.
Whether one or two states exist, there must be just treatment of the Palestinians. That means equal human rights; equal economic rights; freedom without checkpoints and travel restrictions; restoration of homes and farms; equal education; family reunification; no more arbitrary arrest and detention without charges; no more home demolitions; no more second class citizens.
Until Israel begins treating Palestinians as equals and grants them their human rights, no Arab nation can support normalized relations with Israel. To do so would be collusion with the very nation that is oppressing Arabs within its borders, the West Bank and Gaza. Israel alone can bring peace.
People seem to miss understand. The peace process does not need America to apply pressure on Israel. The peace process needs America to leave Israel alone. Only then will Israel realize that it cannot do anything without America's help and be forced to make an agreement.
Its the missed chances that will be talked about for future generations.
It has the chance now, while in a position of strength, to deal fairly and prevent a future generation bent on revenge.
But, again, nothing in Israel past has shown that it is capable of capitalizing on this opportunity.
It would rather make the Palestinians sit in small chairs!
HOW sad to see the world's only Super power hamstrung by a tiny country,Israel and its host of hardline backers inside USA.
Perhaps it is an unprecedented phenomenon of tail wagging the dog.
No other country is more dependent than Israel on US largesse.Yet no US President can nudge the defiant Israeli to honour dozens of UN Resolutions including the moribund UN Resolution 242(over 6 decades old).
The self smae mighty US launched an illegal war against Iraq to enforce get it UN Resolutions.
Once again we are witnessing that "Jordan Option" is being bandied around.
Hilary Clinton's famous declaration that Netyanhu has made an unprecendented concession was a death knell to Mr Obama's attempt to solve the problem.
Look from any angle,Mr Obama's intention to revive the Peace proces was just a theatric.
Meanwhile,Israeli ruling junta is busy gobbling up more land from the Palestinians.
Yet it is the Palestinans who are asked to be reasonable and return to the table "without any conditions".
The US Congress is too subservient to the dictats of AIPAC which to all intents and purposes runs US Middle East policies.
The favourite whipping horse for US Media is Radical Islam.
No one has dared to investigate the causes of its rise!
By merely focussing on the symptoms and presenting Israel as the Victim our Political establishment and the Media has killed any hope of reolution.
There is little chance that Abbas will resume negotiations in the present circumstances, with settlement construction full throttle, freeze or no freeze, Arab evictions and house demolitions in E. Jerusalem, and an ongoing ruthless siege leaving 1.5m Gazans in a continuous humanitarian crisis. Abu Mazen is already widely considered as a corrupt collaborator, and his PA an outsourced repression tool of Israel. Sitting on the table to negotiate with Bibi now will just not do.
In any case, pundits always like to repeat like parrots the official Israeli view about how Abbas has climbed up a tree because of Obama's "unrealistic" initial demands, but fail to see the tree on which Netanyahu has himself climbed, with his promises to the radical settlement movement, his declared position about Jerusalem, and all his other arrogant declarations against any kind of meaningful compromise to satisfy his ultra-right-wing electorate, that also make impossible that he can agree now to any sensible starting point to restart the process. But of course, it's always more politically correct to blame it all on the Pals.
The best poor old Abbas could do now is hold on tight, until the Shalit deal is finally finished (maybe by pressing the US to stop objecting about the release of "terrorists", that is the ultimate reason of the stalemate), and let Marwan Barghouti take over Fatah and the PA, hopefully in a unity government with Hamas, that would have credibility and legitimacy in the Palestinian eyes, and would surely maintain a less defeatist position in the peace negotiations.
How can you expect serious peace talks when the government of this country acts in petty, childish and vindictive ways when dealing with foreign dignitaries? (see: Turkish ambassador being purposefully embarrassed).
This government thinks they are acting like civilized citizens of the world by making the Turkish ambassador sit in a lower chair.
This clown should have been fired as a disgrace to a proud nation like Israel. Instead it just shows the true character of the politicians...
Make peace? Give me a break!
Freedom is the only thing the Natives (Palestinians) have been asking for in 60 years. If the peace process does not include granting them freedom, then there is no point in having peace talks. The Israelis will continue to exploit the land of the Palestinians and continue its settlements and military presence, and the Palestinians will continue to ask for freedom.
The only hope is if Europe gets more involved and stops backing down every time the United States disagrees with them.

We were told if we wanted air conditioning in our room, we would need to pay an extra $40 pesos. Our reservation was not made properly, and instead we were given a 6 bed room rather than a double. Stuffy and not very clean. Good location.

The staff are fantastic. Thank you for your help. There are no locks on the doors to rooms but there are lockers. Only way to enter hostel is by ringing the bell and walking past front desk, so security is pretty good. The hostel is designed to meet people, which is fantastic. The rooms are clean. Beds are comfy but old. Pillows are in desperate need of replacement.

Quotations About / On: FOREVER
Rich fellas come up and they die, and their kids ain't no good, and they die out. But we keep a-comin'. We're the people that live. They can't wipe us out. They can't lick us. And we'll go on forever, Pa, 'cause we're the people.(Nunnally Johnson (1897-1977), U.S. screenwriter. Ma Joad (Jane Darwell), The Grapes of Wrath (1940).)More quotations from: Nunnally Johnson, forever, people
I know. That's what makes us tough. Rich fellows come up and they die. Their kids ain't no good and they die out. But we keepa comin'. We're the people that live. They can't wipe us out. They can't lick us. We'll go on forever, Pa, cause we're the people.(Nunnally Johnson (1897-1977), U.S. screenwriter, and John Ford. Ma Joad (Jane Darwell), The Grapes of Wrath, pronouncement at the end of the film, as the Joad family drives on in search of opportunity (1940). Based on the novel by John Steinbeck.)More quotations from: Nunnally Johnson, forever, people
[It is possible] that the race of red men ... will, before many generations, be remembered only as a strange, weird, dream-like specter, which has passed once before the eyes of men, but had departed forever.(James A. Garfield (1831-1881), U.S. president. To J.D. Cox, August 6, 1870. Garfield, ch. 14, Allen Peskin (1978).)
Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever.(Nadine Gordimer (b. 1923), South African author. Address, June 1990, to the international Writer's Day conference, London. "Censorship and its Aftermath," published in Index on Censorship (Aug. 1990).)More quotations from: Nadine Gordimer, forever, imagination
America is a country that seems forever to be toddler or teenager, at those two stages of human development characterized by conflict between autonomy and security.(Anna Quindlen (b. 1952), U.S. journalist, columnist, author. (July 29, 1990). Thinking Out Loud, p. 55, Random House (1993).)More quotations from: Anna Quindlen, forever, america
It is sadder to find the past again and find it inadequate to the present than it is to have it elude you and remain forever a harmonious conception of memory.(F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940), U.S. author, and Zelda Fitzgerald (1900-1948), U.S. writer. First published in Esquire (New York, June 1934). "Show Mr. and Mrs. F to Number," The Crack-Up, ed. Edmund Wilson (1945).)More quotations from: F. Scott Fitzgerald, forever, memory
Through dinner she felt a gradual icy coldness stealing through her like novocaine. She had made up her mind. It seemed as if she had set the photograph of herself in her own place, forever frozen into a single gesture.(John Dos Passos (1896-1970), U.S. novelist, poet, playwright, painter. Manhattan Transfer, Houghton Mifflin Company (1925 and 1953). Description of Ellen Thatcher at the moment when she decides to marry George Baldwin, a man whom she does not love, rather than Jimmy Herf.)More quotations from: John Dos Passos, forever
Having a child ends forever a man's boyhood, if not his boyishness. Having a child means that the son has, in a real sense, become his father. Sons are for fathers the twice-told tale.(Victoria Secunda (20th century), U.S. psychologist and author. Women and Their Fathers, ch. 1 (1992).)
Dear, sweet, unforgettable childhood! Why does this irrevocable time, forever departed, seem brighter, more festive and richer than it actually was?(Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860-1904), Russian author, playwright. The bishop's thoughts in The Bishop, Works, vol. 10, p. 188, "Nauka" (1976).)
Men, forever tempted to lift the veil of the futurewith the aid of computers or horoscopes or the intestines of sacrificial animalshave a worse record to show in these "sciences" than in almost any scientific endeavor.(Hannah Arendt (1906-1975), U.S. philosopher and political theorist; born in Germany. The Life of the Mind, vol. 2: Willing, ch. 14 (1978).)More quotations from: Hannah Arendt, forever, future

two cute Halloween ideas from BHG
I just added these to our Halloween album, but thought I'd post them here too. They were on Better Homes & Gardens site, where I find a lot of our inspiration ideas.
Spooky Chandelier
Recycle an old umbrella as a haunting light fixture. Remove the fabric covering; stretch spider webbing over the ribs. Decorate with plastic spiders and battery-operated lanterns attached to the ribs with bent wire or S hooks. Tie rope around the handle, and hang from the ceiling with a plant hook or cup hook.
Fenced-In Centerpiece
Mini fencing from craft store, or a shallow basket would work. After Halloween, just add turkeys and switch to Thanksgiving display.
Now how many broken umbrellas have I thrown away over the years???? My brain just doesn't function like this! It made a nice decoration. Cute little scene with the mini hay bales and pumpkins too. TFS Luvs

This Jacobean mansion ticks all the right boxes: picturesque grounds, panelled rooms scented with wood smoke & an ambitious young chef/patron determined to make his mark on the big wide world.
Jason Hornbuckle's menu burgeons with local produce & pickings from Lewtrenchard's walled garden, but his approach is resolutely modern. A meal in the gorgeously traditional dining room might
begin with smoked herring salad with crab spring roll & coriander dressing, ahead of slow-cooked corn-fed chicken leg with boudin blanc & haricot bean cassoulet, with hot chocolate tart,
orange & cardamom ice-cream to finish. For a full blast of creativity, groups can book the funky Purple Carrot, a new dining room adjoining the kitchen, where guests can chat with Jason while
he works. Expect cleverly orchestrated dishes ranging from a teasing shot of Jerusalem artichoke foam with toasted hazelnuts to saddle of venison with quince & celeriac puree & liquorice
