WASHINGTON – The Food and Drug Administration has issued a final rule defining gluten-free for voluntary food and beverage labeling. In order to use the term on its label, a food must meet all of the requirements of the definition, including that the food must contain less than 20 parts per million of gluten, according to the agency. The rule also requires foods with the claims "no gluten," "free of gluten," and "without gluten" to meet the definition for "gluten-free."
Food manufacturers will have a year after the rule is published to bring their labels into compliance with the new requirements, the F.D.A. said.
"We encourage the food industry to come into compliance with the new definition as soon as possible and help us make it as easy as possible for people with celiac disease to identify foods that meet the federal definition of 'gluten-free'," said Michael R. Taylor, the F.D.A.'s deputy commissioner for foods and veterinary medicine.
The F.D.A. was directed to issue the new regulation by the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act, which directed the F.D.A. to set guidelines for the use of the term gluten-free to help people with celiac disease maintain a gluten-free diet.
The final rule may be reviewed by following this link: Gluten-free definition.

Fri 30 Dec 2011 I had a bad experience with 'Not On The High Street' because it wasn't obvious that the goods came from 3rd parties. I tried to buy these lanterns and was very confused by the fact that there were 2 different sellers selling the same lanterns, but using completely different definitions of what constituted a 'small', 'medium' or 'large' lantern. The sellers themselves were very helpful about queries and returns, but this aspect of the website caused me a lot of trouble. Fri 30 Dec 2011 No comment supplied.

How economies work – and don't
one of many words I coined over 20 years ago: geoism, geonomics, geonomy, geocracy, etc – neologisms that later others came up with, too. CNBC once had a Geonomics Show, and Middlebury College has a Geonomics Institute. If "economy" is literally "management of the household", then geonomy is "management of the planet". The kind of management I had in mind is not what CNBC was thinking – top-down. My geonomics is not hands-on, interfering, but hands-off, organic. It'd strive to align policy with natural processes, similar to what holistic healing does in medicine, what organic farming does in agriculture. Geonomics attends to two key components: One, the crucial stuff to track is fat — or profit, especially profits without production, such as rent, or all the money we spend on the nature we use. Society's surplus is the sine qua non for growth, needed to counter death – not merely more, but sustainable development, more from less. Two, the basic process to respect is the feedback loop. These let nature maintain balance automatically and could do the same for markets, if we let them. Letting them would turn our economies, now our masters, into a geonomy, our servant, providing us with prosperity, eco-librium (to coin a term) and leisure, time off — a hostile environment for economan but a cradle for a loving and creative humanity.
a scientific look at how we divvy up the work and the wealth, how some of us end up with too much or too little effort or reward. That's partly due to Ricardo's Law of Rent, showing how wasteful use of Earth cuts wages. And it's partly due to how a society's elite runs government around like water boys, dishing out subsidies and tax breaks. While geonomists look political reality right in the eye, without blinking, conventional economists flinch. When Paul Volcker, ex-chief of the Federal Reserve, moved on to a cushy professorship at Princeton cum book contract, the crush of deadlines bore down. So Volcker asked a junior associate to help with the book. The guy refused, explaining that giving serious consideration to policy would ruin his academic career. The ex-Fed chief couldn't believe it and asked the department chair if truly that were the case. That head honcho pondered the question then replied no, not if he only does it once. And economics was AKA political economy!
not a panacea, but like John Muir said, "pull on any one thing, and find it connected to everything else." Recall last month's earthquake in El Salvador. We felt it and its formidable after-shocks in Nicaragua. Immediately afterwards, my host nation, one of the poorest in the Western Hemisphere, sent aid to its Central American neighbor. The Nica newspapers carried photos of the devastation. They showed that the cliff sides that crumbled had had homes built on them while the cliffs left pristine withstood the shock. Could monopoly of good, safe, flat land be pushing people to build on risky, unstable cliffs? If so, that's just one more good reason to break up land monopoly. What works to break up land monopoly, history shows, is for society to collect the annual rental value of the underlying sites and resources. That'd spur owners to use level land efficiently, so no one would be excluded, forced to resort to cliffs. To prevent another man-induced landslide is yet another reason to spread geonomics.
a discipline that, compared to economics, is as obscure as Warren Buffett's investment strategy, compared to conventional investment theory, about which Buffett said, "You couldn't advance in a finance department in this country unless you taught that the world was flat." (The New York Times, Oct 29). The writer wondered, "But why? If it works, why don't more investors use it?" Good question. Geonomics works, too. Every place that has used it has prospered while conserving resources. Yet it remains off the radar of many wanna-be reformers. Gradually, tho', that's changing. More are becoming aware of what geonomics studies – all the money we spend on the nature we use. Geonomics (1) as an alternative worldview to the anthropocentric, sees human economies as part of the embracing ecosystem with natural feedback loops seeking balance in both systems. (2) As an alternative to worker vs. investor, it sees our need for sites and resources making those who own land into landlords. (3)As an alternative to economics, it tracks the trillions of "rent" as it drives the "housing" bubble and all other indicators. And (4) as an alternative to left or right, it suggests we not tax ourselves then subsidize our favorites but recover and share society's surplus, paying in land dues and getting back "rent" dividends, a la Alaska's oil dividend. Letting rent go to the wrong pockets wreaks havoc, while redirecting it to everyone would solve our economic ills and the ills downstream from them. People must learn to stop whining so much and feel enough self-esteem to demand a fair share of rent, society's surplus, the commonwealth.
a neologism for sharing "rent" or "social surplus" – the money we spend on the nature we use. When we buy land, such as the land beneath a home, we typically pay the wrong person – the homeowner. Instead, since land cost us nothing to make and is the common heri-tage of us all, rather than pay the owner, we should pay ourselves, our neighbors, our community. That is, we should all pay land dues to the public treasury, then our government would pay us land dividends from this collected revenue. It's similar to the Alaska oil dividend, almost $2,000 last year. Indeed, the annual rental value of land, oil, all other natural resources, including the broadcast spectrum and other government-granted permits such as corporate charters, totals several trillion dollars each year. It's so much that some could be spent on basic social services, the rest parceled out as a divi-dend, as Tom Paine suggested, and taxes (except any on natural rents) could be abolished, as Thomas Jeffer-son suggested. Were we sharing Earth by sharing her worth, territorial disputes would be fewer, less intense, and more resolvable.
an alternative to conventional land trusts. Just as it seems some functions should not be left to the market – private courts and cops invite corruption (while private mediation is fine) – just so some land should not be left in the market. That said, sacred sites do not make much of a model for treating the vast acreage of land that we need to use. So the usual trust model, which is anti-use and counter-market, can not apply where it's needed most. Trust proponents worry about ownership and control – two very human ambitions – but they're not central. Supposedly, we the people own millions acres – acres that private corporations treat as private fiefdoms – and conversely, the Nature Conservancy owns wilderness the public can some places use as parks. So, the issue is not who owns but who gets the rent – ideally, all of us.
an answer for Jonathan of the Green Party (Nov 7): "What does 'share our surplus' mean?" Our surplus is the values that society generates synergistically. It's the money we spend on the nature we use: on land sites, natural resources, EM spectrum, ecosystem services (assimilating pollutants). It's also the money we pay to holders of government-granted privileges like corporate charters. We could share it by paying for the nature we use and privileges we hold to the public treasury then getting back a fair share of the recovered revenue. Used to be, owners did owe rent ("own" and "owe" used to be one word). And presently, some lucky residents do get back periodic dividends: Alaska's oil dividend and Aspen Colorado's housing assistance. Doing that, instead of subsidizing bads while taxing goods, is the essence of geonomics. Jonathan: "Is local currency what you mean?" Editor: It's not. Community currency is a good reform, but every good reform pushes up site values. That makes land an even more tempting object of speculation. Now, any good will eventually do bad by widening the income gap – until you share land values.
a POV that Spain's president might try. A few blocks from my room in Madrid at a book fair to promote literacy, Sr Zapatero, while giving autographs and high fives to kids, said books are very expensive and he'd see about getting the value added tax on them cut down to zero. (El Pais, June 4; see, politicians can grasp geo-logic.) But why do we raise the cost of any useful product? Why not tax useless products? Even more basic: is being better than a costly tax good enough? Our favorite replacement for any tax is no tax: instead, run government like a business and charge full market value for the permits it issues, such as everything from corporate charters to emission allowances to resource leases. These pieces of paper are immensely valuable, yet now our steward, the state, gives them away for nearly free, absolutely free in some cases. Government is sitting on its own assets and needs merely to cash in by doing what any rational entity in the economy does – negotiate the best deal. Then with this profit, rather than fund more waste, pay the stakeholders, we citizenry, a dividend. Thereby geonomics gets rid of two huge problems. It replaces taxes with full-value fees and replaces subsidies for special interests with a Citizens Dividend for people in general. Neither left nor right, this reform is what both nature lovers and liberty lovers need to promote, right now.
of interest to Dave Lakhani, President Bold Approach (Mar 8) and Matt Ozga (Jan 29): "I write for the Washington Square News, the student run newspaper out of New York University. Geonomics seems like it has great significance, especially in this area. When was geonomics developed, and by whom?" About 1982 I began. Two years later, Chilean Dr Manfred Max-Neef offered the term geonomics for Earth-friendly economics. In the mid-80s, a millionaire founded a Geonomics Institute on Middlebury College campus in Vermont re global trade. In the 1990s, CNBC cablecast a show, Geonomics, on world trade as it benefits world traders. My version of geonomics draws heavily from the American Henry George who wrote Progress & Poverty (1879) and won the mayoralty of New York but was denied his victory by Tammany Hall (1886). He in turn got lots from Brits David Ricardo, Adam Smith, and the French physiocrats of the 1700s. My version differs by focusing not on taxation but on the flow of rents for sites, resources, sinks, and government-granted privileges. Forgoing these trillions, we instead tax and subsidize, making waste cheap and sustainability expensive. To quit distorting price, replace taxes with "land dues" and replace subsidies with a Citizens Dividend. Matt: "This idea of sharing rents sounds, if not explicitly socialist, at least at odds with some capitalist values (only the strong survive & prosper, etc). Is it fair to say that geonomics has some basis in socialist theory?" A closer descriptor would be Christian. Beyond ethics into praxis, Alaska shares oil rent with residents, and they're more libertarian than socialist. While individuals provide labor and capital, no one provides land while society generates its value. Rent is not private property but public property. Sharing Rent is predistribution, sharing it before an elite or state has a chance to get and misspend it, like a public REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) paying dividends to its stakeholders – a perfectly capitalist model. What we should leave untaxed are our sales, salaries, and structures, things we do produce.
the study of the money we spend on the nature we use. When we pay that money to private owners, we reward both speculation and over-extraction. Robert Kiyosaki's bestseller, Rich Dad's Prophecy, says, "One of the reasons McDonald's is such a rich company is not because it sells a lot of burgers but because it owns the land at some of the best intersections in the world. The main reason Kim and I invest in such properties is to own the land at the corner of the intersection. (p 200) My real estate advisor states that the rich either made their money in real estate or hold their money in real estate." (p 141, via Greg Young) When government recovers the rents for natural advantages for everyone, it can save citizens millions. Ben Sevack, Montreal steel manufacturer, tells us (August 12) that Alberta, by leasing oil & gas fields, recovers enough revenue to be the only province in Canada to get by without a sales tax and to levy a flat provincial income tax. While running for re-election, provincial Premier Ralph Klein proposes to abolish their income tax and promises to eliminate medical insurance premiums and use resource revenue to pay for all medical expense for seniors. After all this planned tax-cutting and greater expense, they still expect a large budget surplus. Even places without oil and gas have high site values in their downtowns, and high values in their utility franchises. Recover the values of locations and privileges, displace the harmful taxes on sales, salaries, and structures, then use the revenue to fund basic government and pay residents a dividend, and you have geonomics in action.

If people don't want to come out to the ball park, nobody's gonna stop 'em.
The future ain't what it used to be.
You'll never have a quiet world till you knock the patriotism out of the human race.

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.

Open Source GIS: The Alternative Set of Geospatial Solutions
Tuesday, April 19, 2011
2:00 PM FAU Downtown Ft. Lauderdale HEC 1110
Many speak of a 'spatial turn' in sciences external to geography, as GIS plays a significant role for the analysis and visualization of many social, economic and environmental phenomena. This, combined with the increasing number of easy to use location based services has demystified the use of GIS. Many of the available proprietary software products are however still expensive and cannot be readily used, particularly in situations where funding is limited. The talk addresses the use of free and open source products (FOSS) as an inexpensive alternative to proprietary GIS software. Major free and open source products which are available will be demonstrated and explained with their advantages and disadvantages. Particular attention will be paid on examples of the use of FOSS in planning and environmental protection.
Software products which will be covered:
• Quantum GIS
• Mapserver
• pMapper
• PostgreSQL/PostGIS
• Geoserver
Dr. Alexander Kotsev (email@example.com) is Assistant Professor in GIS at the Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski (Bulgaria), who is currently Fulbright senior scholar at the Ohio State University. Dr. Kotsev has been implementing desktop and web based open source GIS products for multiple purposes in Europe for the past 10 years.

Hi: 13° Lo:7°
By Jamie Arrowsmith Wednesday 21 November 2012 Updated: 26/11 12:56
Edwardians 34 Cleobury Mortimer 6
Midlands Three West (North)
EDWARDIANS bounced back from last week's Midlands Vase disappointment to secure a sixth league victory of the season that leaves them one point behind leaders Newcastle in second place in the table.
A cagey opening was ended when Cleobury kicked a penalty go 3-0 ahead but Eds gradually found their feet and they scored the game's first try through Dan Johnson, scrum half Chris Lowe added the conversion and in doing so took his personal points tally for the team to 250.
Eds were taking time to build phases but when awarded a penalty it gave them chance to kick for position and an attacking line-out.
The forwards successfully won the ball and fed the backs which resulted in captain John Ferdinand running a nice line to cross for an unconverted score.
Johnson then fed Evans to repeat the feat but Cleobury closed the gap to 17-6 at half time with their second penalty of the afternoon.
Good defending kept Cleobury at bay at the start of the second half before Eds stepped up the tempo and a nice break from centre Morgan Hope allowed him to find Johnson running another good line for his second try of the afternoon.
Now showing better continuity, Eds introduced Chris Matravers at prop and Jack Gilmore at scrum half to earn his first team debut.
With conditions becoming more difficult it was Eds who continued to cope the better and they went 27-6 ahead when vice captain Matt Gill crossed.
Superb footwork from John Corr allowed him to stretch the lead further and Dean De Vere's conversion completed the scoring at the end of a good afternoon for the home side.
Eds travel to Eccleshall on Saturday.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
29 Aug 2012 22:03 GMT | Politics, Middle East, Egypt
Ahmed Shafiq, the former Egyptian presidential candidate, has been placed on a watchlist at border points, Judge Osama el-Saeidy has said in a statement.
Egyptian authorities will detain Shafiq, former President Hosni Mubarak's last prime minister, for questioning over an alleged corruption case if he returns from abroad, el-Saeidy said on Wednesday.
"The investigative judge decided to put General Ahmed Shafiq's name on the watch and travel ban lists based on investigations over his illegal allocation of 40,000 square metres of land ... to Alaa and Gamal Mubarak (the former president's sons)," el-Saeidy said.
Shafiq, who lost a presidential run-off vote against the Muslim Brotherhood's Mohamed Mursi in June, left Egypt for Abu Dhabi two days after his opponent was declared president.
His aides have repeatedly denied Shafiq is on the run, saying he would return soon to launch a new liberal political party, but the threat of arrest could deter him, analysts say.
Accusations denied
The case against Shafiq was lodged in May by Essam Sultan, a leader of the Islamist Wasat Party, who accused the former airforce chief of exploiting his former position as head of the Young Air Force Officers Association to sell land owned by the association to Mubarak's sons at reduced prices.
Live Box 2011111713397233347
Shafiq has denied the charge and accused Sultan of being a former state security informant who had been used to spy on Islamists during Mubarak's era.
Sultan told Reuters news agency after Shafiq was put on the watchlist that he hoped his adversary would return "to face a fair trial and present evidence on the accusations he made against me".
Also on Wednesday, authorities charged one of Mubarak's most trusted men with corruption, including the illegal acquisition of villas, lands and apartments originally owned by the state.
Safwat el-Sherif, who served as the minister of information for nearly two decades, joins a long list of other former Mubarak cronies, businessmen, ministers and others to face trial over alleged corruption.
No date has been set yet for the trial.
El-Sherif also served as the secretary general of the now-dissolved former ruling National Democratic Party, as well as the speaker of the upper house of parliament.
He is already on trial in another case on charges of collaborating in the orchestration of attacks on protests during the 18-day uprising against Mubarak in January last year.

I live in CT as the name implies
our season is short and I start everything indoors(except cucumbers and squash). I never use fertilizer - not in the pots not in the garden.
The idea being that the plants wont thrive and become vigorous if they dont have to work for the food(much like us people - we become fat and lazy). They tend not to develop good deep roots and as such dont produce as much or as long - of course that is unless you keep feeding em the crack - hehe.
Hey - lots of people use fertilizer - so it must work - I am just saying that I was taught not to and I get really good results.
Everybody has there own way of doing it.
Now let me put on my best british accent and put my nose up and say - no self respecting gardener buys from the nursery - that is for tourists - LOL!! That an those of us who got sick of waiting for it to get warm and lost a few plants this year with a frost in May. Ooops.

Must buy.
Hirohiko Araki's 'Rohan at the Louvre' is a must buy for any fan of the JoJo series, as Araki's works are hard to come by. Let alone released in the English language! There are roughly 126 full color pages and a few throwaway pages showcasing the Louvre's collections. There are a few typos scattered around, but it doesn't detract from the story at all.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.

Che tree
Anyone have experience with Che tree from hidden spings or other nurseries that do mail order? I'm in the North bay, CA.
I've got a Che from Edible Landscaping. Usually you need two plants for pollination, but Edible Landscaping claims their tree is self fertile. Last year it set quite a few fruit, though it lost most of them before they ripened, but I did get to eat a handful. It seems to take a few years (3-4) before it starts to reliably produce fruit. I am hoping that this year it will provide a decent crop. The fruit is quite tasty.
Experiences - at least here in the eastern US - from a friend who's grown Che for nearly 2 decades, suggests that you don't need two; they will set fruit parthenocarpically. He initially planted both a 'male' and 'female'. Something happened and the 'male' died - but the 'female' continued fruiting unabatedly, so he never replaced the 'male' tree. YMMV over there on the left coast.
Hidden Springs is good; I've also purchased from Edible Landscaping, but it was over 15 years ago - have never heard any complaints about either outfit.

OFPP wants to improve the quality of contractor data in the Federal Award Performance and Integrity Information System. (Stock image)
The Obama administration is pressing the acquisition workforce to get better at telling other agencies, through a governmentwide online performance database, how well contractors do their jobs.
Joe Jordan, administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy, wants to improve the quantity and quality of data agencies put into the Federal Award Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS).
FAPIIS is the foundation for good data, Jordan stressed in the memo, dated March 6.
"However, " he added, "agencies must increase their use of these tools, as underreporting performance information leaves the government vulnerable to poor acquisition outcomes in the future."
Jordan gave senior acquisition officials several strategies to get employees entering data. He tells chief acquisition officers and senior procurement executives to:
"Improving the collection and use of this information will increase agencies' ability to deliver better outcomes and increase productivity," Jordan wrote.

The spy agency wants to better integrate cybersecurity into its traditional human intelligence operations.
Procurement officials should not be forced to enter contractor performance data into a stovepipe database as an after-the-fact, make-work activity. Instead, contractor performance should routinley be documented in the ongoing course of managing their performance. Contractor performance plans and reports should be published on agency websites in an open, standard, machine-readable format, like StratML. Those reports should be automatically ingested, indexed, and made available for analyses in services like FAPIIS. (Incidentally, the same is true of Federal employee performance plans, particular SES employee plans.)
What the memo fails to address is why the information is not being entered into PPIRS to begin with, and also why contractor oversight is currently so lax. It is a startling abrogation of ones duties to those responsible with being stewards of taxpayers money, and one that needs corrective actions through enforcement and proper program management.
Past performance, especially for services, should be one of the most important evaluation criteria in selecting a contractor for award. However, the incomplete or missing data, combined with allowing contractors to submit their own evaluations from favored customers, often does not allow for differentiation and drives evaluations in areas that often let irresponsible contractors get way with murder because they offer ridiculously low-prices to win work in this era of institutionalizing "buying in."

So I confess to some doubt before I put in "The Deaths of Ian Stone". I saw the trailers, and the synopsis, and it struck me as an experiment. While any experiment has incredible potential to be a rare and unique gem, it also has incredible potential to be a train wreck of devastating proportions.
When you see the plot, you'll see why. Check this out: some guy named Ian Stone (hence the title) runs into some strange something-or-other that forces him into the path of an oncoming train. Okay, big punch right away, right? But check out the rest–instead of dying, as most people tend to do when getting hit with a train, Ian Stone finds himself in a new life that seems oddly familiar. Until the strange something-or-other comes back, and Ian Stone finds himself back on the other end of the dying stick. It soon becomes clear that Ian will keep right on dying…until he can find out why.
And I found myself growing steadily more convinced that this was a really, really good move. Indeed, "The Deaths of Ian Stone" is an absolutely unique experience that I, despite decades of horror movies, cannot name a parallel for. Okay, granted, the whole "love triumphs over fear" motif they'll be using throughout is so stale it could knock an intruder unconscious but still. This is definitely unlike anything I can name.
It's got plenty of chases, action, killings, fistfights and all those things that put a real spark on horror filmmaking. I can't tell you a whole lot more without spoilering like no tomorrow, but suffice it to say that I found everything to be done precisely well.
Oh, sure, I wish they'd gone back to the days when each title had its own DVD menu, and I wish they'd been able to infuse some of that sweet originality that the film itself had into that menu, but this is a problem so slight it barely matters. Tack that menu item onto my wish list, because it will not, read, NOT, affect your enjoyment of this film one IOTA.
The ending manages to not only tie up all the loose ends but also leave the potential of a sequel available in a fashion that doesn't insult the viewer's intelligence.
The special features are the only real low point for this title, having only Miss Horrorfest contest webisodes and English and Spanish subtitles. Sad for a movie this good, but still.
All in all, wow.
Granted, "The Deaths of Ian Stone" may not be the same frenetic fright-fest as the series' absolute high-water mark, 2007's "Gravedancers", but there's no doubt at all that this one is a fantastic joy to watch, completely without parallel in the market, and an absolute, unquestionably must-see title.
The Deaths of Ian Stone is now available at Amazon. As of yet, there is not a release date for the UK. Visit the DVD database for more information.

FortKnox's Journal: First Cloned Cat in Texas 7
Scientists messin with nature, playing god... I have a bad feeling about this...
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).
I knew a man, he had a cat and made the mistake of turning his back.
They found his shredded, dismembered body some months later when the cat box really started smelling...
I don't have a bad feeling about this. Let science march on. Let discoveries be made. The more they get comfortable with genetics, the closer we are to eliminating disease, etc.
Let them play god. The "other one" doesn't seem to be around to give a cloned rats ass.
PS. The thing is cute.
Promising costs nothing, it's the delivering that kills you.

|Half Baths
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
Resort ranch estate on 3 acres with a luxurious lap pool & spa. This quiet & private property also includes horse accommodations, children's playground, tennis court, semi-private driveway, beautiful pond, and an expanse of lush landscape including 60 fruit trees and a vegetable garden! This spectacular home has almost 6,000 square feet & fully furnished to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. The home's five bedroom/bath suites can sleep up to 15 comfortably in beds and potentially more guests for an additional fee per night. The master bedroom includes a marble fireplace and a marble master bath retreat with jetted tub. The large & fully equipped, gourmet kitchen is ideal for entertaining. The living room has amazing panoramic views and a marble fireplace. The dining room overlooks the pool and gorgeous landscape. Various, selective antiques are decorated throughout the home. Also available are billiards, table tennis, board games and much more - providing entertainment for the entire family! Close to many amenities & attractions (see details below).
The Benson Ranch was the perfect location and home for our family vacation. The home comfortably accommodated our family of 11, from the age of 60 to 4 months. The swing set, pool, chickens, vegetable garden and pond were so much fun for all of us. The home and grounds were immaculate. The property manager was excellent. I would definitely recommend this property to family and friends.
This was our first VRBO rental. Everything was as depicted in the pictures. I would recommend this facility to anyone. It is was well worth the expense and more. We are a three generation group. We came from three different locations in two different states. (Oh and Mn) There were five little girls, ages: 10, 10, 8, 6, & 2. All the homes listed were great looking facilities, however three things stood out for us. The pool was SPECTACULAR. It is a much better pool than you will find in any hotel/motel. The kids, and parents, loved it. It was completely private, for our use only. The second attraction was the grounds. It was very comforting to let the girls "explore" and play on their own without any real concern about their safety. Again, the property was all to ourselves. We could hear them at any time, even if at times they were out of site. The third item that appealed to us was the bedroom with 4 bunks. The youngest used the pack and play but the older four had a great time in their own room. Morning coffee on the pool deck for the adults was very nice. The kids made two "forts" in the living room with pillows. There was a set of 10 play tents and tunnels that made a great play area in the Family Room. The kitchen was great. Pancakes on the stove griddle. Two dishwashers, several coffee makers, etc. We did one trip to Moonlight Beach but we used the pool everyday, often twice. Sea World, Balboa Park, and The San Diego Zoo were quite close and we also spent a day at Disney. The house is huge. Having all the bathrooms was great, as were all the bedrooms. The Master suite was larger and nicer than some apartments. This is a great multifamily facility. The flexibility and privacy of the house and property are well worth it. After the girls were in bed we gathered in the living room and did some puzzles, had a little wine, and some conversation. That couldn't happen in a hotel. All the other features of the property as listed were great. We just didn't use most of them but even so the value was excellent. We did use the playground, did some fruit picking, and had scrambled eggs with eggs right out of the hen house. (Washers used daily.) We did a lot off property but we had tons of time all together on site. There are many excellent local restaurants, both family oriented and more upscale. Kim was in touch almost daily just to see if we needed anything, which we never did. A lot of great memories were made by everyone.
We rented this home for our combination family reunion and daughter's wedding. We were in the United Arab Emirates and had to find someplace to bring our family from all over the US together, and we have a big family so this was difficult, but luckily we finally found Rancho Santa Fe. It was everything and more. It welcomed us, our family and our friends as well as our new family to be. We found places to play, talk, relax and admire. The garden allowed us to enjoy wonderful meals together, and the beautiful, quiet corners of the property allowed each to person to find their own spot of tranquility. It was everything we hoped for and more. Thank you to the owners and managers for giving us wonderful memories along with peace of mind.
We annually have a gathering of or two daughters' and their families, currently 11 people in all. This place proved to be the best - extremely spacious, and the recreation ammenities one would find at a resort or community recreation facility. A playground comparable to what one would find at a small public park, a great pool/hot tub - much larger than one would expect in a house, a tennis court with ball machine, lots and lots of lush grassy fields, and (a special thrill for our younger grandkids) a vegetable garden and collection of fruit trees, so they could pick food we would have the next meal or so. Another great feature - all kinds of recreation toys, games, and equipment, including bikes of various sizes and a pool table and ping pong table. Lots of space and well furnished with appliances and utensils. More ranch style than ultra-fancy, but in a great neighborhood for walking, biking or jogging with many truly amazing estates. Particularly enjoyed eating poolside with lovely views of distant hills and the sunset. Very congenial and flexible owner and assistant.
We LOVED our stay at Benson Ranch! The house was large enough to accommodate our group of four families (16 people) without feeling like we were on top of each other. There was room for even more people, if our group had been larger!
The location of the ranch is wonderful - convenient to Solana Beach, Del Mar and La Jolla! You only have to travel about 20 minutes to be downtown or at dinner. The area is quiet and tranquil, so you can easily relax! It's also convenient to Albertsons which is a plus when you're travelling with such a huge group.
The house itself would have been entertainment enough, if only we hadn't been interested in any sightseeing! The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. There were plenty of towels / sheets for everyone. The living room is large enough for everyone to relax in comfortably. All of the bedrooms were spacious with plenty of room to spread out and have privacy. The master bathroom is beautiful!! The pool is AMAZING! We were swimming the majority of the time during our stay. The infinity edge looks over the beautiful property and you truly feel like you're in a tropical oasis! Fresh fruit can be picked daily from the grounds AND it tastes incredible! The house had plenty of toys - for the kids AND the adults (the large tricycles were a hit)! They even had a pack-n-play (a large octagon one that's larger than your average sized ones), high chair, booster seat, and bouncy/vibrating chair that all came in handy (our group had 4 under the age of 2)!
Everything about our vacation at the Benson Ranch was wonderful – it was hard to leave! Kim was very responsive and quick to answer any questions we had during our visit. We look forward to our next stay!
Our stay at the Benson Ranch was exceptional!
To say it was beautiful and comfortable would be an understatement. The relaxation you get to experience, not having to pack even a beach towel or accessory, is unparalleled.
The grounds are breathtaking and yet the best part is that you get to partake in the fresh juicy fruits and vegetables during your stay. Pick your produce and eat it the same day at its peak ripeness. Think fresh tossed salads accompanied by fresh cut herbs. Sweet peaches made into homemade cobbler melting in a bowl with ice cream. Fresh blackberries dancing in your bowl of cereal…your taste buds will thank you.
They have enough games, sports equipment, kitchenware, and cutlery to handle an army, yet you are peacefully tucked away from the neighbors and enchanted by the constant views from the numerous windows.
We enjoyed playing basketball, shooting pool, playing ping pong, racing trikes, and swimming throughout the day, and spending time in the Jacuzzi before bed most nights. There was also a great large TV and sound system on which we very much enjoyed watching movies.
Our stay at the Benson Ranch was excellent. We would stay there again and highly recommend it for anyone that is interested in spending time at a beautiful getaway.
This property is centrally located to many amenities and attractions. Just a 4 minute drive to the Rancho Santa Fe Covenant that includes many restaurants, food market and shopping. There are three golf courses close by including the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Course only 2 miles away! In addition, just a short drive away are:
