|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
The Secret Garden is a serene retreat nestled in gorgeous gardens in one of the most beautiful and safe neighbourhoods in Vancouver. Ten minutes to UBC or downtown - close to the best of everything Vancouver has to offer!
Our large, bright yet cozy apartment occupies the ground level of a character home. Just outside the separate entrance are a private patio and the lush back garden.
The carpeted living room has lots of large windows looking onto gardens, a big comfy couch and extra seating, a gas fireplace and flatscreen tv.
There are two bedrooms, both with windows looking onto gardens. The master has a queen bed and the other bedroom a double bed.
The kitchen is fully equipped with microwave, dishes, cutlery, pots and pans, everything you need to cook at home. Coffee, tea, sugar, herbs and spices are provided. The fridge and stove are both full size.
The dining area also looks onto gardens and has seating for six.
Our luxurious tiled bathroom with walk-in shower, rainhead, and granite counter opens into a private sauna.
The laundry room has a washing machine and dryer, laundry tubs, and cleaning supplies. There are no charges for the use of the washer and dryer.
Our tropical feel back garden features a large stone deck, water feature and landscape lighting. Birds and squirrels visit many times a day and can often be seen drinking at the fountain. The garden is featured annually in the "Dunbar in Bloom" garden tour in May.
The front garden has a delightful little stone patio surrounded by beautiful trees and shrubs.
We are half a block from Dunbar Village in the historic neighbourhood of Dunbar-Southlands. Within two blocks are many restaurants and bars, liquor store, produce and fish markets, Starbucks and other coffee shops, Mac's, drug store, small shops, beauty salons and medical clinic. Stong's supermarket is half a block away - convenient for making meals in the apartment.
There is ample free parking in front of the house with no need for permits.
Families with children will enjoy the Dunbar Community Centre, one block away, which has a great playground, tennis courts, fitness centre and picnic area.
The west side beaches are a ten-minute drive or short bus ride down the hill. Also nearby are UBC, the Museum of Anthropology and several public golf courses. A few blocks west is the entrance to Pacific Spirit Park where you can walk for hours in old-growth forest. A 10-minute drive or 25-minute bus ride takes you to downtown Vancouver.
Granville Island, Queen Elizabeth Park, VanDusen Gardens, Commercial Drive, South Granville, Main Street and UBC are some of the attractions you won't want to miss on our side of town.
For families with small children we have a play-and-pack, high chair, stroller (all free) and extra single bed ($10 per night).
If you are looking for a relaxing vacation in a quiet, beautiful setting close to the best of everything Vancouver has to offer, we would love to welcome you to The Secret Garden.
I'm Noo-Noo, the resident caretaker and rental agent for The Secret Garden. I live upstairs and am available by phone but not necessarily in 24-hour residence. Just let me know if you need anything and I'll be happy to help.
Noo-Noo purchased this apartment in 1985
I love Dunbar! I moved here from North Van in 1985. I bought this home for its large treed lot, proximity to the forest and Dunbar Village and most of all I loved the character of the house (it used to be an old mill worker's home and was built in 1926).
The location is fantastic - everything needed for day to day living is within walking distance. I have been living upstairs for many years and I rarely drive my car. Grocery shopping, restaurants, fitness classes - all within two blocks! Plus it's not everybody who gets to enjoy these incredible gardens all year long!
Awesome shower and sauna I have to say...right in the suite itself...better than any hotel at that price.
Kitchen with everything you could want and an upscale supermarket, Stongs at the end of the block that's open till midnight.
Super quiet, great beds and just a beautiful getaway that's 15 minutes from downtown.
We are staying there whenever we go to Vancouver from now on if at all possible.
We spent 6 nights in this apartment, perfect for us and our two teenagers.
This apartment is located in a very charming suburb of Vancouver. We enjoyed walking after dinner in the neighborhood. Close to shops and restaurants you don't need your car if you want to prepare your dinner our buy take away.
The owner lives upstair and she is very friendly (thank you for your delicious cake!).
This location is very convenient if you want to discover Vancouver which is only at 15 minutes drive.
The garden is beautiful with lot of places to sit, and near the entrance of the appartement you will find a table and a barbecue.
We recommend highly "the secret garden" and we hope to come back.
A very relaxed and homely place to stay in Vancouver. We were lucky to have good weather during our Stay and were able to take advantage of the sitting areas in the garden. Noo Noo was a great host even letting us borrow a phone during our stay.
We had a wonderful stay at the Secret Garden! Noo-Noo was a friendly and accomodating hostess. The apartment was immaculately clean and entirely comfortable. We seek out seclusion and were surprised and delighted to find it in the heart of the city! We will definitely stay again when we return to Vancouver.
I stayed in this apartment with my two small children. There was enough room for all of us and we slept very well. The host was wonderful and asked on more than one occasion if we had everything we needed. On the day we left there was a bit of a snow storm, and she made it clear that we could come back and stay another night if we decided the roads were too dangerous to make the trip back to Vancouver Island. We made it ok, but it was much appreciated!
The apartment is a a little bit away from the main downtown of Vancouver, but the bus connections are easy and convenient. The host supplied us with the use of a local cell phone which was extremely useful. The only 'drawback' for us was the gas fireplace; this was only a drawback because it meant I had to be extra vigilant of my 10-month-old, but this is likely not a problem for most people! On a positive note, the fireplace made the living room cosy. Would stay here again, particularly in the summer.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here at the Secret Garden, it had everything we needed and plenty of room for relaxing. A great little apartment in a quiet convenient location with shops and general store a five minute walk away. It was great for self catering with a well equipped kitchen however there were nearby restaurants if eating out was your preference. Local transport links were nearby for Downtown Vancouver. The apartment was tastefully decorated with clean crisp linen and plenty of information leaflets and maps were available for use. One bonus was the use of laundry facilities. The proprietor was very helpful and made us very welcome with some refreshments and treats! I would not hesitate to stay there again if we returned to Vancouver at some point in the future. Hopefully one day!
The Secret Garden is in the historic neighbourhood of Dunbar-Southlands, on a quiet, tree-lined street half a block from Dunbar Village. A 10-minute drive or 20-minute bus ride takes you downtown. The best beaches in Vancouver are just down the hill - Jericho, Spanish Banks, Locarno, and Kitsilano. The University of British Columbia is a 10-minute drive. Also on this side of town are the Museum of Anthropology at UBC, VanDusen Gardens, the Planetarium, Science World, and the funky areas of Main Street and Commercial Drive for bars, ethnic restaurants and music. The old fishing village of Steveston is half an hour's drive - great fish and chips and you can buy fresh fish off the boats to cook in our fully equipped kitchen.

Budget cuts mean no Ellsworth air show this year
RAPID CITY (AP) -- Officials at Ellsworth Air Force Base have cancelled this year's Dakota Thunder air show because of automatic federal spending cuts that took effect this month.
The show has been held every two or three years for decades at the South Dakota base. Dogfight shows, parachute teams and fried food draw more than 30,000 people to each show.

S. saxorum or AV Blue Twinkle up for trade or postage
Tis that time of year again for me to whack my AV Blue Twinkle "to the ground". For those unfamiliar with my methods, I will mention that I grow this AV in a terrarium. It is actually the only method by which I have ever had success with AVs. They die on my otherwise.
Blue Twinkle is a mini trailer. In my terr, it forms a "shrub" like this:
At such a point, I then whack it back to this:
Doesn't take long for it to get back to this:
And before you know it, it is back to shrub stage and I repeat the cycle.
Oh, and also have Strepocarpus saxorum cuttings available for postage or trade as it too needs trimmed.
As I have done in the past, rather than just toss the plant material away, I offer it up for postage or trade (contiguous US and PR, only). Oh, and I should mention that these will be stems with leaves cuttings --- not just a few leaves plucked off a plant.
Postage typically runs around $6.
Trades: The only trades I would be interested in would be micro-mini Sinningia or micro-mini AVs (preferably heavily variegated).
If interested, email me through GW. PLEASE make sure that your settings allow me to email you back via GW or that you include your email address in the email you send me. Offer is good while supplies last or until I get too rambunctious and simply throw the whacked off parts away.
So let me ask you Paul-
I've had S. Saxorum for a couple of years. Last year I cut stems off a fairly old plant and rooted them.
Once they were nicely rooted, I planted them in a basket. However, they don't seem to have rhizomes like regular streps do.
Perhaps I was doing something wrong? I seemed have ended up with two basket's full of single plants (Saw this when I was re-potting).

Not intending to pump but since Mr bufett wants hammer the sales declines, I'd ask: How is it possible they would see declining revenues and be able to have higher relative margins?
By higher relative margins, you must mean increasingly NEGATIVE. They are losing money, assets are shrinking, and revenue is shrinking.
And yes, you DO intend to pump. You must have bought a couple shares and are praying for a .10 move for beer money this weekend. Or you're begging Tose for a promotion, or a new set of knee pads.

Fever Charts: On Jack Tworkov
Between 1937 and 1947 something happened to profoundly shake Tworkov's faith in political action generally. Nothing in this book gives the reader any glimpse into what occurred--and yet the depth of his disgust, and the consistency and vehemence with which he expresses it, suggest that there must have been some definite event, or perhaps a series of them, rather than a gradual drifting away. But what distinguishes Tworkov from so many others--his erstwhile comrade Dos Passos, for instance--is that his loss of faith in the left did not lead him to the right. When asked at a public forum in 1960 what he considered to be the most important cultural activity in America, he answered "the Negro sit-downs in the South." Though professing himself "emotionally sad but placid" about the Vietnam War, he supported Eugene McCarthy for president and felt that "under Reagan it's America that has become the greatest danger to the world, not even less than what Hitler was." One of his last diary entries, seven months before his death from cancer in 1982, notes a meeting "to organize a committee to organize visual artists against nuclear armaments."
Tworkov had not renounced his ideals. But he had lost hope in the fight for them, and this loss was directly related to his ongoing sense of unease with himself and others. "Revolution of whatever kind," he felt, "leads to authoritarianism, to suppression, to dictatorship. Inevitably everyone must serve the revolution or be regarded as its enemy--thus no one can speak, reason, think or paint who does not directly serve the revolution.... The word has come to fill me with disgust." Tworkov's tone in this letter to his sister and brother-in-law, its personal yet categorical note, suggests that he'd met revolutionary demagoguery in person and felt in it a threat to his very existence as an artist. In any case--as this book's rather unattractive title, taken from one of the artist's journal entries, suggests--Tworkov was allergic to any form of extremism or intellectual absolutism. Thus his animosity toward Ad Reinhardt, whose pose of sublime certainty and exclusive possession of the truth must have been infuriating; Reinhardt's statement "Art is art. Everything else is everything else" seemed to leave all his colleagues on the side of everything else. "He thinks that there is a kind of Chinese wall between experience and painting," Tworkov complained publicly in Reinhardt's presence; in his private notes he added, "It is obnoxious to take a position that leaves you the only artist around." All the more so since, as Tworkov had declared years before, "No artist is by himself an artist. He is an artist only by virtue of the fact that he voluntarily permits other artists to act on him and that he has the capacity to react in turn.... There could no more be one artist than there could be one human being."
More broadly, Tworkov was repulsed by all self-conscious avant-gardism as well as the cult of genius or any insinuation that art might somehow be beyond good and evil. In his eyes, revolutionary politics and the nihilism of an all-consuming aesthetic mirror each other: "Pure esthetics, like pure sociologies (Utopias) lead to pure (without guilt) murder." "Picasso is the first of the modern artists who treated art neither like one treats a beloved or a mother who nourishes, but like a land to be conquered even if it had to be burned or destroyed. He prefigures the ruthless dictator." Both exemplify the "aristocratic pretensions" of all who claim "the autonomous character of the individual who is a law to himself." For this reason, Tworkov felt sure that the extreme avant-gardes, clinging to aristocratic values against the bourgeoisie, were actually reactionary and antimodern.
What's curious is that despite his professions of anti-avant-gardism and anti-extremism, Tworkov was extremely attracted to certain grandees of the avant-garde of his time--most notably, John Cage, "one of the most intelligent people I have ever met." Perhaps it was the composer's ability to embody a nonviolent, playful avant-gardism that beguiled Tworkov, although he shrewdly remarks that while "Cage associates himself with Zen and the absence of ego...an egoless Cage is unthinkable to me." Despite his ostensible quietism, "in a conversation Cage uses you as if you were an instrument from which to fetch a sound." In the end, Tworkov classified Cage's work as farce.
Tworkov was equally attracted to two younger painters who were close to and much influenced by Cage, Robert Rauschenberg (whom he met during a brief stint teaching at Black Mountain College in 1952) and Jasper Johns. He even bought a small, early flag painting from Johns, but he never really warmed to the work of either of them. Johns's flag "was a subject that posed a paradox: Was it an object? Was it a painting? The paradox is literature. As such it was interesting but soon exhausted." (Around 1961-62, Tworkov would paint his own variations on the American flag, retaining its colors while, in contrast to Johns, distorting its composition--"perhaps unconsciously an ironic comment," he mused, on his own "growing patriotism.") Rejecting avant-gardist pretensions to operate in what Rauschenberg famously called "the gap between art and life," let alone to heal that breach, Tworkov was even more disdainful of Modernist claims to strict aesthetic autonomy as articulated by Reinhardt or by Clement Greenberg. On the other hand, as an abstractionist he refrained from an art that approached reality as something to be represented. True, his first abstract paintings, in the early '50s, had been full of figurative reminiscences, but from the middle of that decade on he tried to eliminate them--not always successfully in his eyes, since even as late as 1963 he was still telling himself, "I've never quite been able to shake off figurative elements, but I must."
Still, he never ceased to envy representational painters from afar. In part this is accounted for by his intense admiration for his sister and her husband, both of whom pursued a modern form of stylized representation in the École de Paris tradition. He seems always to have wondered if he'd made a mistake but was convinced--in contradiction to Greenberg's view that Modernism was essentially a distillation of what made for quality in the painting of any time--that between abstraction and representation he had crossed a radical divide. He even speaks of being "trapped" in abstraction. Recalling to Alain the exaltation he'd felt in the Prado, he had to admit, "I cannot associate my experience in front of these paintings with what engages me in the studio." Seeing the work of younger representational painters, he remarked, "I shared not one thing with them except canvas, brushes and paint and the desire all artists have to fill their lives with something meaningful." In both spirit and technique, they might as well have been practicing different arts altogether. (A survey of Tworkov's art, "Jack Tworkov: Against Extremes--Five Decades of Painting," is on offer at the UBS Art Gallery in New York City, through October 27.)
Perhaps this is why, as critical as Tworkov could be of his colleagues among the Abstract Expressionists, he had to be acutely skeptical of succeeding generations of artists. Having with great difficulty and considerable regret made what he saw as a fundamental break with tradition, it must have been galling to find himself cast in the role of a traditionalist whose revolution had not been thorough-going enough after all. Having paid the price of that revolution, he must have thought the successive ones looked cheap and facile. It's a problem that the critic Leo Steinberg was talking about in the early '60s; although the article he devoted to it was called "Contemporary Art and the Plight of Its Public," he meant the plight of its makers just as much as of its viewers--that is, of the artists who might continually feel themselves in danger of being left behind. Steinberg evoked his own feeling on first encountering the work of Johns: "The pictures of de Kooning and Kline, it seemed to me, were suddenly tossed into one pot with Watteau and Rembrandt and Giotto." The reason, according to Steinberg, is that by comparison with Johns they all seemed equally "painters of illusion." A few years later, Johns was to be shown up as an illusionist by Donald Judd, and then Judd, a few years after that, by Mel Bochner. It was a period in which illusion was found to be bottomless, since more of it could always be discovered retroactively through a process of elimination. Steinberg goes on to report the responses to Johns of two unnamed Abstract Expressionists: "If this is painting, I might as well give up," said one; "Well, I am still involved with the dream," said the other. Both those painters could have been Jack Tworkov.

Robert Wade worries a new Family Dollar store near his Elgin home will mean an increase in crime.
Rachel Wallace is concerned about what kind of store could move in to the building if the Family Dollar should happen to fail.
And Carolyn Petroski, who enjoys the rural landscape of her community, fears the business could irrevocably harm her way of life.
These Elgin residents joined several of their neighbors at Monday night's Lancaster County Council meeting to speak out against the addition of a Family Dollar store in their community.
Specifically, the group urged council not to approve a proposed rezoning of property at the intersection of Community Lane and Kershaw-Camden Highway from R-30 low density residential/agricultural district to B-3 general commercial district. The rezoning would allow the business to set up shop in the area.
One by one the residents, who hailed from homes along Community Lane, Mountain Laurel Road and Kershaw-Camden Highway, among others, voiced their concerns with the project.
With only a small staff to man the proposed store, Robert Wade said he worries it would be a magnet for burglars or robbers.
"The people of Elgin have a neighborhood watch, but we shouldn't have to be Family Dollar's security solution," Wade said. "This shouldn't be located near residential."
Petroski agreed the store could change everything she loves about Elgin.
"I chose to live here because it's a rural area," Petroski said. "We've had stores in the area that have failed because the area couldn't support them. I'm concerned about what could come in behind Family Dollar."
Michelle Wade, a Community Lane resident, was overcome with emotion as she opposed the plan.
"If Family Dollar fails, what could go in there?" Wade said. "It will be a big empty box on a big concrete surface. When it's empty what will that do to our property values?"
'A good-looking store'
Council also heard from several people who supported the project.
Judd McAdams, developer on the project, said Family Dollar researched the area and located several thousand residents who live in the general vicinity of the proposed store. He said the store would not attract a criminal element and assured council the store does not make evening deliveries, thus eliminating noise concerns at night.
"They are a good, solid company and a good corporate citizen," McAdams said. "It will be a good looking store and will provide a service to the community."
Don Johnson, whose pasture full of goats and cows sits near the proposed store, said he is in favor of the project.
"I think Family Dollar is a good company and will take care of what they put there," Johnson said.
He also said the store could give jobs to at least 10 or more residents.
"This will be good for our community. It's like a mini grocery store," he said. "And my cows would love to see all those people come on in there."
Don Richardson, who owns the property in question, said the rezoning would only apply to 1.13 acres out of a 5.46-acre piece of land.
"The Family Dollar we think will be a good fit here," Richardson said.
Council votes
Later in the meeting, County planner Penelope Karagounis presented her report to council. She said the property is surrounded by residential properties, though there are a few commercial properties in the vicinity.
"Initially the planning staff were going to recommend, but then staff felt they had to be consistent with the county's future land-use map, so they recommended it be denied," she said.
Despite that recommendation, she said the county's Planning Commission voted 6-1 last month to approve the rezoning.
Karagounis also said a recent public hearing about the issue revealed mixed emotions from residents about the plan.
"About half of the residents were worried about traffic, noise and crime," she said. "About half of the residents were for it because they said it provided convenience to the community."
Before the vote, District 5 Councilman Rudy Carter wanted to clear the record about what he's heard from residents in his district.
"Someone made the statement that I said 90 percent of people in Elgin are for this, but my comment was 90 percent of people I've talked to are in favor of this," Carter said. "I make a motion to accept."
Council then unanimously approved first reading of the ordinance. Council members will consider second reading at the March 26 meeting.

Oneida Medical Jewelry to Love (with Giveaway!)
If you're like me, hypoglycemia makes you paranoid. Not just in the moment it happens, but for weeks and months after a significant low I just feel scared -- that it might hit me again at some unexpected moment out in public and no one around me would know what was happening. Which is why I am so religious about wearing medical ID jewelry. I'm also very fashion-conscious, so that med jewelry had better look…Read more »

Has anyone bought a camera online?
If you have which site have you used? I have started looking from addresses in the photo mags I get but I get overwhelmed when going over all the info. I want to buy a Nikon D80 Kit and have seen several sites but am unsure since I am spending so much money...
Any tips, links, suggestions would be great!
I bought my camera online, Beach Camera. Wouldn't hesitate to do it again. Saved more than $150. First I visited one of the online camera review sites that list vendors and vendor ratings. They had a 800 number so I called and placed my order. Quick service, everything as advertised. Local stores in my area never have what I want. They can special order but it costs a lot. I trust my MasterCard company to intervene if something goes wrong.
Bought a lens from amazon.com last month.
I would never buy something that expensive from ebay. Just MHO.
cametacamera.com does LOTS of business and has good reviews. I bought my camera bag from them adn one of my cameras. They run their business form an ebay storefront.
Check the business here:
I went to Pricegrabber.com.
They compare all products and you can narrow down your research by selecting what particular things you want on your camera.
They have reviews on their products by consumers, and also reviews on the stores where the products were purchased.
You can view products sellers from lowest to highest price.
I bought my Nikon Coolpix5700 after researching it on their site, and finding the cheapest online price.
Good Luck
Thank you for all the different links, suggestions and feedback. I don't remember if I mentioned I have been looking through Popular Photography mag's and found the first links there. I have a canon PowerShot A85 that has worked great for a long time. Last time [maybe a year ago] I came here and got lots of help someone - Maybe Joe- gave me links and info on more things I could do with that camera. So I have had lots of fun and improved a bunch on photo 'how to's' but it slipped out of my hand a while back and I broke the little silver ring covering the lens area where it zooms - I think it probably also protects the lens a bit along with just looking better! LOL Anyway since then I have been looking more seriously. I have have just gotten a new job and will will be able to afford a nice camera so thought I would take the plunge and get the 'Dream' Camera. I want to get as many perks to it on the first purchase as I can afford because I will also be using this for business so can deduct it. Thank goodness for that although even with being able to deduct it I stillneed to be able to pay for it!
Thanks again!
Sydney, tell us what your dream camera is. Or maybe you haven't decided yet. I really like to hear about the cameras others have chosen. I had my 'dream camera' picked out and was ready to order, then something someone said changed my mind. Then I researched another one, same thing. So, I'm still looking, comparing, deciding.
Happy hunting
DREAM CAMERA!!!!! Here is mine -
it is on sale for $31,998.00.
ohhh yeah!
Realistacally; niko D80 and I am hoping thed new Olympus is everthing the company has promised. I have the $$, just waiting. If it is not, then I will get the D80
Mine is the Nikon D80. I have read lots and lots of good things about it...I need to understand more about the different types of lens. I've read what all it good but need/want to know why or the difference/advantage between lens that area step up from one another. I just keep reading and reading then come here and ask questions.
LOL Joe. I don't think the total price of all my cars have cost that much !..
The Nikon D80 is my dream camera also, please keep us updated on it. I have been asked to take wedding photos next June and I hope to have that camera for it by then. My sister has this very camera and she has taken 3 weddings with very good professional looking photos(she is self-taught just like me). She also took a homecoming coronation with great results. Let us know, as I would like to get this camera also but am worried too about buying online with that kind of money.
Hi all,
Well, as long as it's just a dream, mine would be the Nikon D3. But I could "settle" for a Nikon D300. OK, that's just a dream too. Realistically, my entry level (I still don't have a digital camera) choice will probably be a Nikon D40X with a AF-S DX Zoom-NIKKOR 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED lens.

My husband, daughter 16 years old and myself enjoyed the Barcelo Februrary 20-27th. We were impressed by the staff, facilities and rooms. The buffet was always tasty and yes it was often the same food but that is what we called 'the staples'. toast, eggs, fruit, etc. Then each day there was always something different that you could try for a change. So we were very happy with the food choices.
We went for a walk to 'the Palace' down the beach and decided of all the hotels our beach was spectacular. A large area without rocks or coral you had to walk across to get to the waves. It was sand all the way out. The pools were refreshing and very clean.
Overall this was a wonderful experience.
The only downfall is the long trip to and from the airport, but if you start chatting with people on the bus( and we usually do) it can make things better.

I am an artist, my husband is a realtor. We have two children, and horses who love to be fed carrots and apples. We have lived on Kauai for 12 years and can tell you where to go to have a great time while you are visiting.
shari pilaria purchased this cottage in 2005
We love living here as we are near all of what makes Poipu exciting but away from the crowded resort developements that offer little quiet or privacy
Banana tree cottage is in a private separate building on the second floor or my art studio. It is very quiet and not on top of other residences in high density developments. Each window offers either a view of fields and distant ocean or mountain views. We are close enough to walk down to the beach in about 10 minutes, but far away enough that you don't have to be in a crowded area - but a rural feeling area with horses and trees and and expansive lawn to look out upon. We have high quality bed linens and towels and have made very effort to make our vacation unit as nice or nicer than your home on the mainland so you can fully enjoy your stay on Kauai even if you rarely leave the cottage. Banana Tree Cottage is a B&B we offer a breakfast basket with local fruits and baked goods upon arrival.
I stayed at Banana Tree cottage for 1 week with my boyfriend and I couldn't ask for anything more perfect. Not only is the location close to everything but this awesome cottage became our sanctuary and our home away from home.
The cottage itself was extremely clean, comfy, welcoming and it has everything one can need like beach chairs, towels, beach bag, snorkeling gear, BBQ, washer, dryer, blender(for those pina coladas ;), etc.
Shari and Luis were wonderful hosts and not intrusive in the slightest bit. On the contrary, this cottage is very private and its the perfect place to enjoy quality time with you significant other, family, friends.
The location is fantastic also, its just down the road from the beach and 5-10 driving distance from all the shops and restaurants.
My only disappointment is that I couldn't live here full time and had to go back home. I 110% recommend this cottage to everyone and will be staying here again in the near future :)

My girlfriend and I flew over from Oahu for the weekend and absolutely fell in love with this place. So much better than a hotel or resort. The pictures don't do it justice and everything was just so much more than we were expecting. The unit was well maintained, clean and included everything needed to ensure a perfect island getaway.
The home is much better than we expected and were pleasently suprised to find it look exactly as the picture shows. We have been fooled by pictures before from our other trips. The home was spacious and quiet, and I believe it can comfortably fit 3 people. The kitchen was great and had everything we needed for use. A grocery store is about a mile away and you can walk to the beach and get there in 15 minutes. The patio was great to lounge in on as well and hopefully next time we visit we can stay here again.
We recently stayed at Banana Tree Cottage for a month and loved it! Shari and Luis were so welcoming and made us feel so at home. I loved feeding carrots to the horses every day, and they definitely enjoyed it. The home was very comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. It is a short 10 minute walk to the beach which we did every morning at sunrise and saw sea turtles, dolphins, whales and even some monk seals. We have always stayed in either a hotel room or a condo in the past but we loved Banana Tree Cottage so much we will definitely stay there again. There are wonderful views of the beautiful mountains, open land and also the ocean in the distance. We went to some great farmer's markets and got things to make salads and got some wonderful tropical fruits. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare things, but we also ate out a lot at all the wonderful restaurants. Thank you Shari and Luis for a wonderful stay, we cannot wait to return!
What a gem! The owners and the cottage are so welcoming. After a week at a resort on another island, this was the perfect vacation from the vacation. Quiet, secluded and comfortable in every way. Banana Tree cottage has everything you need for a couple of beach bums like us--great beach chairs, mats, umbrella, cooler bag, towels and more. Great cozy furniture, comfortable bed and lovely lanai outside with ranch views and the ocean in the distance. Close to Poipu beach and dining--loved Living Foods (a local Whole Foods-like market and cafe), Keoki's Paradise--sit on the less formal bar/entertainment side which has access to both the formal menu and the bar menu. Awesome Hula Pie!!! Brenneke's (unpretentious and good) and the Beach House for the sunsets (recommend reservations) are great. Poipu beach was great for snorkeling and views. Recommend the doors-off helicopter tour of Kauai. We used Inter Island Helicopters out of Port Allen 15 minutes away. Dont be shy abut exploring the rest of Kauai from Banana Tree. We traveled the entire distance and tried many beaches, those known and less known. What a fantastic island for discovery and renewal. Leave your alarm clocks at home when you come here--the roosters will get you up anyway on this island! Aloha!
The Banana Tree Cottage was really quiet and spacious. We loved to stay there. The upstairs apartment offers everything you need for a perfect holiday: a delicious welcome basket with fruits and banana bread, a very comfortable king size bed, a full equipped kitchen and a gas-BBQ, a big and good shower, washer and dryer for free usage, WIFI (a little low in the evening but no problem) and fantastic views over the ranchland with the ocean in the distance and beautiful sunsets from the lanai. The cottage is only a short drive away from all the Poipu Beaches and also near Koloa with a Big Save supermarket. It is also a good location to drive into Waimea Canyon or to the coastline in the West. We recommend the helicopter tour from Hanapepe / Port Allen Airport – an amazing experience! We also recommend warmly this accommodation. Shari and Luis are very friendly hosts. Thanks so much for the opportunity of a late check out – it meant a lot to us.
Poipu is the sunny South Shore of beautiful Kauai. Our property is in a quiet location away from the crowded condos that typify Poipu. Rural setting with mountain and ocean views, 1/3 mile to the beach.

I booked a 2-night stay at this hotel for family members coming in from out of town. I used the pre-paid rate. Unfortunately, my relatives were in a car accident on the way down and could only stay one night so they could return back home. Despite explaining the situation to both the hotel (franchise) and Holiday Inn Corporate, I was not offered a credit for the second night - not even a partial credit. Not even a few thousand priority club points. Extremely disappointing.
I've been a loyal Holiday Inn customer for over 20 years, for both work and pleasure, but no more. Not only did this experience reflect poorly on the franchise, it reflected poorly on the Holiday Inn brand as well. I will never stay in a Holiday Inn hotel ever again.

F. H. BROWN I DIFFERENTIAL FRESSURE RESPONSIVE DEVICE Original Filed July 2, 1920 21 Patented den. 15, 1924.
on H i FRANCIS H. BROWN, F GLEN OLDEN, PENNSYLVANIA.
a 1" if" DIFFERENTIAL-PRESSURE n'nsronslvnnnvron.
- Application filed July 2, 1920, Serial No. 393,840. Renewed June a, 21923.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that'I, FRANCIS H. BROWN,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Glen Olden,'in the county of'Delaware and 5 State of Pennsylvania, have invented an Improvement in Differential-Pressure Responsive Devices, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like characters on the drawings representing like parts.
The invention to be hereinafter described relates to dilferential pressure responsive devices which may be employed for indieating, registering, measuring, regulating and other purposes.
Qrifice plates have been employed for these purposes. As is well known, the ori fice having an opening less than the condoctor in which it is-mounted, causes-differential pressures of the fluid atopposite sides of the orifice plate. To transmit these pressures, it has been customary to connect pipes to'the conductor adjacent opposite sides of the orifice plate, but the arrangement of the pipes and their connection with devices cooperating therewith has been such that one of the pipes will transmit static 6 pressure from one side of the orifice plate only. Therefore, if it is desired to reverse the direction of flow of the fluid through the conductor, it has been necessary to dis connect the pipes, exchange the same, and re-connect the pipes to the conductor, or ithas been necessary to provide the pipes with cross connections and an arrangement of manually operable valves, so that staticand kinetic pressures may be alternatively transmitted from opposite sides of the crifice plate. These, however, are objectionable operations consuming considerable time and requiring the services of intelligent workmen. i
in many instances it is desirable that the differential pressures may be promptly transmitted on How of fluid in either direction through he conductor. For example, in power plants it is customary to provide steam generator units which may be alternately operated, one during the day, and the other during the night,.or one to be always'in readiness for operation if emergency requires the other to be shut down.
It is customary to conduct steam developed by these generators from mains n a. common header provided with an orifice plate intermediate the points of connection of said mains with the header. Valves may be provided in the steam mains for the respective generator units, so that the steam may be admitted alternatively from said mains. The steam will How in one direction through the header when coming from the main of one of the generator units, and will' .flow in the opposite direction through the header when coming from the main of the, other steam generator unit. g desirable that the orifice device shall automatically transmit the dilferential pressures, static and kinetic, when the steam is flowing in either direction through the header,
It is, therefore,
without requiring adjustment or attention on the part of theengineer.
The principal aim and purpose of the present invention, therefore, is to provide -a simple and eflicient orifice device which will automatically transmit the differential pressures, static and kinetic, when steam or other fluid is flowing in either direction through the conductor inwhich the orifice device is mounted.-
With the aforesaid and other purposes in view, the character of the invention will be best understood by reference to the following description of one good form thereof shown in the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Fig. l is a longitudinal section on a horizontal plane through a, conductor equipped with the pressure responsive device embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 is a transverse section taken on line 2 2 of Fig. 1; and
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of details to be referred to.
Referring to the drawings, 1 designates a conductor which may conveniently be formed of standard sections 3 and 5 having flanges 7 and 9.
The orifice device embodying the invention may conveniently be mounted between said fiangesand may be secured. thereto by bolts 11 passing through said flanges and the orifice device.
This orifice device, in the present instance of the invention, comprises a plate 13 conveniently circular in form and having a central orifice15 substantially smaller than the internal diameter of the conductor. The edges of the orifice may desirably hebevelled ferential groove 17: may be formed in the.- orifice .late and communicate with the Orr-- in Opposite directions so as to form a fairly Suitable means may be provided to trans mit the kinetic steam pressure of the fluid as it passes through the orifice. 5T0 accomplish this, in the present instance, a circumfice. ommunicat'ing with said groove is a port 19 extending radially outward to the periphery of the orifice plate, and said port -may be tapped for'connection With the pipe ture of the construction may be similar to that disclosed in my copending application Serial No.368,665, filed March 25, 1920.
As stated, it is desirable that the static pressure of the steam may be properly transmitted when the-fluid is flowing in either direction through the conductor and the orifice. To accomplish this, in the present instance of the invention, the orifice plate maybe provided with a port 23 extending radiallyoutward to the periphery of the plate, Where it may be tapped to receivea pipe 25 for conducting the static pressure to the pointdesired. (lo-operating with this port is a valve27 conveniently in the form of aspool slidabl'y mounted in a bore 29extending transversely to the plane of the orifice plate at the inner end of the port 23.
This valve may have passages leading from oppositesides 'of the orifice plate to the port 23, and adapted for alt rnative communication therewith. In the present instance, passages 31 are provided at'one end of the valve extending axially thereofand communicating with a circumferential passage 33. The valve is also provided with axial passages 35 at the opposite end thereof communicating with a circumferential passage 37. The valve may have a length somewhat greater than the thickness of the orifice plate, andthe opposite ends of the valve may be provided with flanges 39 for limiting movements of the valve in opposite directions. To enable the valve as constructed to be readily mounted in the orifice plate it may be formed of two sections, one having a threaded stud -11 adapted to be screwed into a tapped hole in the other.
The construction is such that when the fluid is flowing through the conductor to-, ward the right, the fluid will press against the face of the valve exposed at the left side of the orifice plate, and automatically shift the valve toward the right. This will place the passagesll and 33 in coimnunicat-ion with the port 23 and place the passages 35 and 37 out of Coinnu'iniration with said port. Then the valve will be in a position to transmit static-pressures from the left side of the orifice plate tothe port 28. i i
' On the other hand, when the fluid is flowing through the conductor" toward the left,
i the pressure of the fluid will act on the right hand face of the valve, thereby shifting it cally operate in'response to flow of fluid in either (llI'GZ'illOll, without requiring; any
change inthe position thereof, or attention on the; part of the engineer. Also, it is un necessary to tap the conductor sections and enter pressure conducting pipes therein, sinte these pipes are connected directly to the orifice plate. Since necessity for pipes connected to the conductor sections is e imiinated it is unnecessary to provide valves to be manually operated to control the transmission of the static pressure when the fluid is flowin; in opposite directions. I
The pressure device described is'simple in construction, eflficient in operation, and will always reliahlytransmit the differential pressures as required.
This pressure device is adaptable for a great variety of uses. Among others, it is desirably adapted for eo-opcration with devices for indicating, registering, measuring and regulating purposes.
For'some purposes'it will be necessary to utilize the port for transmitting kinetic pres sure variations, and it will suflice to use the means tor transmitting static pressure ariations. So anas I am aware. I am the first to provide means which will automatically respond to and transmit pressure variations when steam or other fluid is flowing in either of two directions.
it will he understood that the invention is not limited to thespecific embodiment shown. and that various deviations may he made lhrrci'rom without departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Yesterday night (10. April 2009) I got out like I usually do when we have level 2 and more in aurora forecast. The sky was filled with Aurora Borealis mostly on level 2-3 but we got absolutly breathtaking show when the lights kicked up the level to 4-5 which lasted for 2-3 minutes. Then it went to level 2 again.
i've never seen this with my own eyes and your photo has reminded me how much i would like to. it's so beautiful and i love how the stars shine through.
Thank you hsien-ku… I hope that you will be able to see it with your own eyes sooner rather than later. Yes, Aurora Borealis is very beautiful when they show up – specially when they are strong, then the whole sky just becomes a colorful lightshow.
– Stefán Kristinsson
Thank you Ian! :)
– Stefán Kristinsson
Stefan this is beautiful.. i would love to travel to see this it ha always been a dream of mine..i still have time.. perhaps i'll try to make it sooner than later..
Thanks caradione, feel free to contact me if you come to visit Iceland. :)
– Stefán Kristinsson
Nice shot.
This is breathtaking. If a photo is this magnificent, I can only imagine what it must be like in person~ Peechez

These guys from yelp.com created an ipad application that connects to a kegerator. Before you pour, you sign in via RFID, and the application tells you things like keg temp, flow rate, info about the beer, how much beer is left in the keg, and even allows you to rate the beer and find out who else has poured it.
What's really cool is that you can check the status of your keg via the web, so you can truly find out of your roommates are stealing your beer http://technorati.com/videos/article...medium=twitter
That's pretty cool stuff and all, but it looks more like they're just looking for a reason to make something
I mean seriously, I could care less if people are drinking my beer...and that iPad could be put to better use measuring temps, flow rates, etc in a brewing rig. Kudos to them for finding another use for RFID tags though.
Yeah, this is definitely all it was. They had a day to work on nifty coding projects, so they made that. It certainly could be more usable (I don't have a spare jailbroken iPad sitting around) but I like the concept.

Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a town in the district of Ansbach of Mittelfranken (Middle Franconia), the Franconia region of Bavaria, Germany, well known for its well-preserved medieval old town, a destination for tourists from around the world.
Rothenburg was a Free Imperial City from the late Middle Ages to 1803.
The name "Rothenburg ob der Tauber" means, in German, "Red fortress above the Tauber". This is so because the town is located on a plateau overlooking the Tauber River. As to the name "Rothenburg", some say it comes from the German words Rot (Red) and Burg (burgh, medieval fortified town), referring to the red color of the roofs of the houses which overlook the river. The name may also refer to the process of retting ("rotten" in German) flax for linen production.
In March 1945 in World War II, German soldiers were stationed in Rothenburg to defend it. On March 31, bombs were dropped over Rothenburg by 16 planes, killing 39 people and destroying 306 houses, six public buildings, nine watchtowers, and over 2,000 feet (610 m) of the wall. The U.S Assistant Secretary of War John J. McCloy knew about the historic importance and beauty of Rothenburg, so he ordered US Army General Jacob L. Devers not use artillery in taking Rothenburg. The local military commander Major Th�mmes ignored the order of Adolf Hitler for all towns to fight to the end and gave up the town, thereby saving it from total destruction by artillery. American troops of the 12th Infantry Regiment, 4th Division occupied the town on April 17, 1945, and in November 1948 McCloy was named Honorable Protectorate of Rothenburg. After the war, the residents of the city quickly repaired the bombing damage. Donations for the rebuilding were received from all over the world. The rebuilt walls feature commemorative bricks with donor names. Traffic-reducing measures were put in place in a significant portion of Rothenburg to increase safety and accommodate tourism.
