About this location
The Hampshire region
This area enjoys some of the best levels of sunshine in the U.K. Emsworth is situated right on the west Sussex/Hampshire borders, two of the most beautiful counties in England. Stunning coastlines combined with rolling countryside make it a unique mixture and it has numerous historical connections.
The nearby naval city of Portsmouth is where The Victory ship is berthed and Chichester to the east has its famous Roman connections, examples of which are exhibited at the Fishbourne Roman Palace.
Situated at the top of Chichester Harbour, Emsworth is a stunningly beautiful market town popular with sailors, walkers, artists and tourists. To the west Chichester Harbour merges with Langstone Harbour and the walk around the coastline towards the pretty village of Langstone is particularly picturesque. Heading south from the property, Thorney Island projects out into this natural harbour and taking the coastal path around the island will afford some wonderful views.
Emsworth has two tidal mill ponds, one of which abuts Bath Road, which are host to a variety of wild life. It is full of history, with a long established reputation for oyster fishing and boat building and still boasts traditional shipwrights and chandeliers. The sailing club is a thriving centre for sailing enthusiasts and the pretty streets have a fascinating mixture of different architectural styles. A gentle walk around the village, which has superb harbour views, gives a genuine feel for the past. There are excellent road links to Portsmouth and Chichester (15 minute drive to both approximately) and there is also a mainline station to London.
There is an interesting selection of shops & restaurants in the town itself and there are numerous places of interest to visit in the area. These include Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth, one of the largest vantage points in Europe, the internationally rernowned Chichester Festival Theatre at Chichester, polo at Cowdray near Midhurst and horse racing and motor sports at Goodwood. There are also annual festivals at Chichester, Brighton and Arundel. In addition to the sailing at Emsworth there is also a super sandy beach at West Wittering which attracts wind surfers and surfers, as well as sun bathers.
Chichester Festival Theatre - 20 mins
Fishbourne Roman Palace - 10 mins
West Wittering Beach - 30 mins
Hayling Island - 20 mins
Goodwood Racecourse & Motor Circuit - 30 mins - home of the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Goodwood Revival, Glorious Goodwood and many more events throughout the year

"Interesting property with lovely views"
The setting of 10 Osprey Quay is lovely and the views to the front are wonderful, especially when you get a sunset over the water, which makes it very special.
It's a few minutes' walk into the lovely little town of Emsworth where there's everything you might need shop- and food-wise. There's also a train station about 20 minutes' walk from the deckhouse, which we utilised to go into Brighton for a great day out. (It's an hour's ride, but much easier than the roads which get quite congested). The location is absolutely perfect for exploring all of the surrounding area.
The deckhouses are rather unique and we loved the opportunity to stay somewhere a bit different. The accommodation is perfectly adequate. It's clean, very comfortable and is extremely well equipped. Inside, the décor is a bit tired in places… Some of the kitchen cupboards are a little tatty, there's rust on the metal shelving in bathroom, and there are a few scuffs here and there. It's nothing major; it could just do with a bit of a refresh throughout. With a few simple tweaks it could easily match the view from the windows.
(On a side note, the smoke alarm goes off every time you open the bathroom door after having a shower, so we had to take the battery out temporarily!)
Also, we felt that a few very simple additions would help to complete the visitor's stay at the property, such as:
* A welcome pack – it doesn't need to be much; just a few tea bags, coffee sachets, sugar, milk, biscuits, maybe a couple of pieces of fruit and a bottle of wine.
* A mirror near a plug socket would be most useful for drying one's hair – the ideal place would be in the main bedroom, above the heater as there's already a plug there. Or even an extension lead would suffice.
* Somewhere within the shower cubicle to stand shower gel, shampoo, etc.
Finally, we feel that a damage deposit of £250 is a bit high. We've stayed in lots of self-catering accommodation (even a 12 story medieval tower in Tuscany!) and we've never had to pay such a high damage deposit. That said, it was refunded the day after we returned, so all's well.
If you're looking for an interesting property that's well-equipped (and has a really comfy bed!), in a tranquil location, with a lovely view… then you won't go far wrong with 10 Osprey Quay.
Very many thanks for your review, I fully appreciate the time you have taken to give me some honest feedback.
In response I would make the following comments;
Décor is a bit tired in places
The deckhouse was decorated only last year and so is in pretty good condition, I agree the kitchen units are beginning to look a little tired, although they are fully functioning. We will continue to appraise the situation each season
Rust on the metal shelving in bathroom - this will be replaced shortly
The smoke alarm goes off every time you open the bathroom door - I have never had this happen and likewise never been made aware of this fact - I will certainly investigate!
A welcome pack – will look into providing
A mirror in the main bedroom - we will put one in
Shower cubicle tidy - again we will put one in
Damage deposit of £250 is a bit high - yours was one of my first bookings this year and since then I have reduced the deposit and consider reducing it further for short breaks for couples on an individual basis
Once again, I fully value your feedback, and am very glad you enjoyed your stay and would very much welcome you to visit again in the future, when I hope the changes we will make will enhance your stay
Many thanks

"I hope others have a better experience"
I hope that these matters have been addressed & they will be able to enjoy their stay & not have to spend time on correcting shortcomings in the housekeeping.1. Neither fridge switched on; hunted rou… More
I am very disappointed and upset to receive such a negative review for this property, whilst I take on board your feedback I feel that it unduly reflects the property in a negative light and I hope prospective guests will also take into account the much more favourable reviews we have also received.
In response to the points you have made;
1. Neither fridge being switched on was an oversight, the previous tenant had left the freezer door open and so I had to turn it off in order to defrost the freezer, I forgot to turn it back on again. I have however now added details to the information pack guests receive as to how to turn it on should this happen again. The downstairs fridge is generally not left on as detailed in the pack you were sent.
2. Again leaving the water off was an oversight, but details as to how to turn it on are in the pack you received and it heats very quickly
3. Decking - fully take on board your feedback - and as a result we have completely renovated the balcony since your stay
4. Instruction books have now been left available for all guests to use
5. The duvet you found so uncomfortable has been used through all weather for a few years with no complaint. However as you know, following your first nights stay, I went and bought a new duvet in 2 parts to give 3 way flexibility dependant on peoples requirements, which you had from the 2nd nights stay in the property.
6. Kitchen sponges - I replace these on a regular basis and for stays of a week they will always be new, however for stays of 3 nights this would seem wasteful
7. Blind cords - sorry I had not noticed they had become knotted when I was doing your changeover.
8. Balcony Doors - key locks function, but are purely a secondary measure to the lock on the handles
9.Damage deposit return - the deposit was returned to you the very same day as the funds were transferred to my account. Holiday lettings has now changed the deposit process and they will manage the process which will now take closer to 2 weeks
I hope you have more success in future rentals and am very sorry that we were unable to meet your needs.
We endeavour to treat all our guests with the care and attention they deserve and hope to ensure they have a wonderful stay
Kind regards

"Delightful Deckhouse"
What a find! A wonderfully different place to stay in a super location. If you enjoy peace and quiet, walks from the door and a gorgeous view of the harbour, you'll love it here. On a sunny evening you won't want to move from the balcony. 10 Osprey Quay is surprisingly spacious, decorated to a high standard and very well equipped.
The deckhouses are situated in parkland next to Emsworth Yacht Harbour, with a cafe that serves tapas on a Friday evening. Emsworth town centre with its pubs, shops and restaurants is an easy 10 minute walk, reached through the Yacht Harbour.
Thankyou for your kind words - so glad you enjoyed your stay!!

Fabric on walls without starch?
Remember the time honored tradition of covering your apartment walls with fabric by wetting it with liquid starch and putting it on the walls like wallpaper? It went up easily and came down in a flash. Well, my son wants to experiment with his walls and I suggested this to him. He found some great fabric but I can't find starch that isn't a spray can! Whatever happened to gallon bottles of liquid starch. I can't find the dry stuff either. Am I looking in all the wrong places? Or do you think I can use some watered down Elmer's glue ? He wants to use my stash of fabric stiffener - will that work? Or is there some obvious answer I am completely missing??? Thanks---
Here is a link that tells how to make it from corn starch as well as some places that people have bought it. I didn't see a date, but if the shopping isn't current at least the recipe should work.
Some say that Walmart, Kmart and dollar stores all have it. I don't know.
Here's another recipe from Field Trips in Fiber:
Liquid Starch Recipe
I think I posted a few months ago about making my own starch. I use a lot of starch in my quilt piecing. I like the fabric to be as stiff as paper, especially when I'm working with triangles. The problem with my original starch recipe is that it didn't fully dissolve and sometimes left a white residue on the fabric. That didn't bother me because I always wash the completed quilt....but it drove my Mom nuts when she was here and we were working on our "Quilts on the Double" quilts. She and her sister looked through my Grandma's recipe book to see if her starch recipe was recorded. It wasn't. So a search of the web for several recipes resulted in this new recipe that works much better!
If you decided to make your own starch, only make what you can use in a day or 2. It does go rancid. I seem to use a little more than a cup in an average cutting session.
1. Put 1 1/2 cups of water in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
2. While waiting for the water to boil, dissolve 2 - 3 teaspoons of cornstarch in 3 tablespoons of cold water in a cup or small bowl. Keep mixing the cornstarch while waiting for the water to boil.
3. After the water boils, pour the cornstarch mixture into the boiling water and stir for a minute or so. The liquid will be clear or slightly cloudy.
4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
5. Transfer the starch mixture to a spray bottle and starch away! Throw it out after a couple of days.
good luck

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Secret reports on CFS errors must end
The Phoenix Sinclair commission has just entered its third week of public hearings into the tragic life and grisly death of the young girl, whom the child welfare system knew was at risk from birth, and one conclusion is apparent. It makes no sense to conduct repeat investigations in the wake of the deaths of these children -- she is not the only child to die in the shadow of the system -- if the findings are not shared with those whose actions were faulty.
There were three reviews conducted in 2006, when Phoenix's death was discovered nine months after her mother and her mother's boyfriend hid her body at a dump near their Fisher River home. A former program manager of Winnipeg CFS, the agency charged with keeping her safe, completed an internal review. The chief medical examiner's office did its own file review of the agency's role in Phoenix's life and an investigation under the CFS Act, called a Sec. 4 review, was also conducted.
While commission counsel Sherri Walsh noted that some people were interviewed for some of that work, those social workers who have testified of their own involvement so far say they were never spoken to and did not see the results until the commission began its work.
That's astounding. Some reviews, such as the internal CFS look-back, are meant to be rapid "paper reviews." But the provincial investigation is extensive and intended to look deeper to detect weaknesses in the system Manitoba uses to protect vulnerable children from neglect and abuse. How can the full story be told in the absence of speaking to those who made the notes, filed the paper, made the decisions on how families and children get the services necessary to keep homes intact, or to pull kids into safer places?
Social workers testified they never saw the conclusions, the many findings and recommendations that commented on their personal work in the file. Much of Laura Forrest's work was lauded, but she was found professionally remiss in the fact that for weeks she failed to see Phoenix personally to confirm her safety. It would have been helpful to know the reviews' comments on her shortcomings, she told the inquiry last week.
Some workers said some of the findings were wrong -- the suggestion that Phoenix's father Steve Sinclair was left without grief counseling when Phoenix's newborn sister Echo died in 2001, for example.
Contrast these investigations to those of the provincial auditor's office (Crocus) and ombudsman's office (recent whistleblower complaint about a nursing home's misuse of funds). These offices interview all actors deemed important and then present their findings to them for comment. The provincial auditor releases its report publicly; the ombudsman doesn't release whistleblower reports.
In both cases, the provincial government then moved quickly to halt mismanagement of money.
It took the provincial government three years to make changes, in 2009, in the way child-protection cases are handled, including mandatory face-to-face visits with children under the watch or in the care of CFS agencies. All the while, these workers were oblivious to their wrongdoings.
Fundamental changes need to be made in the conduct, and sharing, of investigations following a child's death. These reports are secret, never publicly released unless an inquiry is held into a profound failing of the system, as happened with Phoenix. That secrecy complicates problems. There is no good reason to withhold the provincial review, the Sec. 4 investigation, from public release.
That's something Family Services Minister Jennifer Howard can correct right now.

Casablanca is one of the best movies ever made.
There is something for everyone in this film, which makes it good- but if you know anything about the world at the time this movie was made, it's a truly great work.
In conclusion, this movie has it all: good background music, great dialogue, an interesting story, good acting, and interesting cinematography.
Best exciting, boring movie ever...to quote my grandson! No really if you go in knowing it is black and white and about the war and you still watch it you will love it!Published 1 day ago by Debra
True American film classic. All four leads did outstanding work on this film (Bogart, Bergman, Henreid and Rains)Published 1 day ago by Marvin Stone

|Surprise! I'm still learning from Casablanca
Casablanca was not filmed in widescreen. Until 1953's The Robe, although widescreen processes existed, it was very rarely used. But all video and DVD releases feature Casablanca in its intended theatrical aspect ratio.

They chose to shoot this movie in black and white. Gone with the Wind was released a few years before this movie, so the process was available.
But let's assume that they would have shot this movie in color if they'd had the budget. The thing is, they didn't, so they not only shot it in black... Read More

Details of Vancouver Whitecaps Fc and the Ticket Luck value
In 2009, a candidate ownership group of
Vancouver Whitecaps FC began playing in the MLS season of 2011, starting with their first game against Toronto FC, whom they defeated with a score of 4-2. Following a promising winning start, the team was confronted with much challenges in winning another match throughout their remaining eleven games in which they lost five while had six draws. After their 1-1 game score with the famous New York Red Bulls, Teiter Thordardon, their then head coach was replaced by Martin Rennie.
Vancouver Whitecaps FC competed in most of their early matches at Empire Field, which was supposed to be a temporary arena constructed for on the previous site of Empire Stadium, to be a home ground of BC Lions during the renovation of their original home station. Empire Field is known to provide great mountain views that provide a ring around

Breaking Local News
PAC in Mingo County Cleared of Wrongdoing
A Mingo County political action committee has been cleared of wrongdoing. An attorney for the Secretary of State's office says the PAC may have accepted improper contributions, but no state law was violated. The money may have been improperly donated, but that doesn't make it illegal for the PAC to receive it, according to the attorney. The Daily Mail reports the state is in the process of appointing a special prosecutor for the case.
Kanawha County School Board to Decide School Start Dates Soon
Students this year headed back to class earlier than ever. The August 9th start date was the earliest start date in Kanawha County history, and it was done so students will finish the semester before the holiday break in December. Some wonder whether the Kanawha County school board will continue the early starts, or perhaps even move to a year-round schedule, but the Daily Mail reports the year round schedule is not in the plans. Also, a committee has been appointed to weigh options for the school calendar, and setting one will be on the agenda at a meeting later this month. The school board is expected to decide between a traditional late August start date and another early August one like this year.
Arrest Made After Vandalism to Cars Over the Weekend
South Charleston police have a man in custody that they think vandalized several vehicles over the weekend. David Williams was arrested Monday for slashing the tires of 33 vehicles from Kentucky Street to Ohio Street near Thomas Memorial Hospital, according to police. There are reports that Williams was on drugs at the time. He faces a felony destruction of property charge and also faces up to 10 years in prison, if convicted.
South Charleston Breaks In Its New Football Field
It was a first on Friday night for one area high school football team. The South Charleston Black Eagles always played their games off campus at Oakes Field, but now they've got a brand new field right behind the school. The team's first home game of the 2013 season was played Friday night on the new on-campus field. There are still plans in the future for a new press box and field house. And South Charleston beat St. Albans in the home opener, 75-16.
Grant Money is Rejected as Federal Healthcare Law Nears
$365,000 in federal grant money has been declined by a nonprofit group. The money would have helped West Virginians sign up for health insurance plans under the Affordable Care Act, but West Virginia Parent Training and Information Inc. declined the money because of what they called "unforseen circumstances" according to the Charleston Gazette. Last week, state Attorney General Patrick Morrisey directed the nonprofit group to answer 26 questions about the group's personnel and hiring practices. U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller has been critical of Morrisey, accusing him of bullying WVPTI and other groups.

Construction Worker in Dunbar Falls off I-64 Bridge
An accident involving a construction worker is under investigation today. It happened in Dunbar. A worker fell about 50 feet off the Eastbound Interstate 64 bridge. South Charleston rescuers got to the man who was on his back in heavy brush underneath the bridge. They were able to rescue him within less than 20 minutes and he was taken to Charleston Area Medical Center for treatment. He was conscious at the scene, but likely had broken bones.
Investigation Continues After Woman Jumps to Her Death
Authorities are investigating the death of a woman who jumped off the New Bridge Gorge Bridge. The National Park Service said the 53-year-old woman stopped her car on the bridge on Wednesday, put a step stool next to the rail and climbed to the bridge's edge. She didn't respond to several motorists who stopped and tried to talk her. The woman jumped and fell 876 feet. The park service said Thursday that it and the Fayette County Sheriff's Department are investigating.
Mingo County Officials Refuse to Resign
Some are calling for it, but two Mingo County officials say they won't resign. The County's prosecutor, Michael Sparks, and County Commissioner, Greg "Hootie" Smith say they won't step down, and both say they are continuing to cooperate with a federal investigation in the county. In August, a federal grand jury charged Mingo County Circuit Court Judge Michael Thornsbury with trying to frame the husband of his secretary for several crimes. Commissioner Dave Baisden was charged in a separate case with extortion. There also is a state investigation of alleged election law violations in the county.
Nicholas County Woman's Case Moves to Grand Jury
A woman accused of hiding bodies in a storage unit in Nicholas County will have her case sent to a grand jury. Wanda Kiser was charged in mid-August after human remains were found in a storage unit in Summersville. Detectives in Alabama think the remains are those of 105-year old Mary Cobb, and Wynona Delvecchio. The two women went missing in 2002.

With his team relegated to working out in the gym, the indoor batting cage area of the Life Fitness Center and the student parking lot, Middletown baseball Coach Steve Shuleski had limited resources with which to evaluate his 2015 squad.
One thing that is certain: This year's Blue Raiders will not be hurting for pitching.
Returning for their senior seasons are right-handers Nathan Ocker and Zach Sims, who were two of the Mid-Penn Conference's top pitchers in 2014. Junior Brandon Harper, who had concentrated his efforts to baseball in the offseason, will add a third quality hurler to the pitching staff.
The Raiders made the District 3 playoffs last season and closed out the year with an 11-11 overall record, 9-5 in the Mid-Penn's Keystone Division. One of the real highlights was a 6-4 upset of defending champion West York in the first round of the district playoffs.
In the second round, the Raiders came up short in a rain-filled 4-2 loss to Northeastern at Ephrata, a defeat that ended their season. That loss, along with most of their other setbacks during the regular season, came down to hitting, or lack thereof.

It began with a four-game winning streak. Then a rare victory over neighboring rival Lower Dauphin in extra innings, the first in several years. Then a spot in the District 3 playoffs.
Middletown hit new heights as last season rolled along, compiling a 14-5 record, defeating LD, the Class AAAA state title runner-up, 3-2 on a walk-off eighth inning RBI single and reaching the Class AAA playoffs, where the Blue Raiders lost a tough 1-0 thriller to Kennard-Dale.
This year could be a rebuilding year for Middletown, however, as Coach Mike Thomas seeks to replace six starters from last season's team.

Last season, the Lower Dauphin softball team had a successful run, making it all the way to the PIAA Class AAAA title game for the first time in program history.
While the team came up short in a 8-3 loss to Souderton in the state championship game, the Falcons are bringing their experience for a comeback and another chance to claim the coveted title.
"We're experienced. Going as far as we did last year certainly put a lot of experience in our back pocket playing in some of the games we did," said Coach Steve Alcorn.

The Falcons have a number of seasoned players with five seniors on the roster.

Government Reopens, But the Fight for Health Care Is Far From Over
A fight that started over Obamacare, expanded to directly target women's access to birth control, and kept the government shut down for 16 days, is over….for now.
With the debt ceiling looming and the country on the brink of default, Congress reached an agreement late last night to temporarily end the shutdown, fund the government until January 15, 2014, and raise the debt ceiling until February 7, 2014. The current deal doesn't really solve the government's budget problems, it just delays them. Congress is still required to reach a funding deal by December 13, 2013 and there may be more fights ahead — especially considering what the House Republicans tried to accomplish during the first attempt to defund Obamacare.
Whether it was trying to defund a law that already is working for millions of Americans, including 27 million women with access to no-copay birth control, or sneaking in a provision that would let an employer or insurance company deny preventive health services to women (and only to women!) based on a "moral" objection, they were willing to do whatever it takes — including shutting down the government and costing taxpayers $24 BILLION dollars — in their efforts to deny people health care.
So as budget negotiations resume, you can bet that we're going to have to fight to keep women's health off the table. Maybe we should remind them that every dollar invested in women's health saves taxpayers nearly 6 dollars?
