Frequently Asked Questions & Answers on the 2014 F56 MINI
Welcome to the F56 FAQ. We've taken your questions from recent posts and given them answers to the best of our ability hopefully to make the next generation MINI a little less of a mystery. As we know more we'll be updating this post with better answers. Likewise as you ask more questions we'll continue to answer them.
One note most of these questions have already been answered in previous MotoriingFile articles. For further information please check out the F56 section.
Q: Is the Cooper S and JCW going to be 2 litre L4 or the same as the one/cooper 3 cylinders 1.5 litres but more HP obviously ?
A: We've confirmed that the US will see a 1.5 three cylinder and the Cooper S will have a 2.0L four cylinder. Eventually the next generation JCW power plant will be based on the 2.0L four.
Q: Have been driving a jcw coupe for a while and have gotten used to the steering and feel of the R56 family of cars. Got some time behind a R50 again and the outstanding question I have would be is MINI going to reverse the trend for the steering feel in the F series. The difference in feel is night and day, still feel that I can place the R50-53 on the edge of a dime. However the R56 generation cars are numb in comparison.
A: I'd argue it's not quite night and day but clearly there is a difference. We won't know until we drive the car but MINI is aware that visceral qualities are important that the MINI brand. Make that what you will.
Q: Is there going to be a base price increase?
A: Yes. No telling what that will be but take a look at the historical data for good clues.
Q: How much of the car is brand new vs how much is carried over (if anything) from the R56?
A: Everything is brand new. Nothing is being carried over.
Q: The new dash layout is quite a bit disturbing. The design seems a forced bunch of differing technologies. Any hope this will change before production?
A: The new dash has been signed off on as of earlier this spring. The only thing that could potentially change is likely trim.
Q: What will be the engine (and so the power) of the Cooper SD?
A: A new 2.0 diesel. Launch time is still unknown. The 1.5L diesel should be available at launch in diesel friendly markets.
Q: Can we really hope a controlled suspension (electronic damper control)?
A: Yes we've confirmed previously that MINI will offer electronic damper control (option 223) on the F56.
Q: Will the 8-speed automatic version be available from the start on the Cooper S and will it include flappy paddles?
A: Yes as an option. And they should be pull/pull rather than the awkward push/pull current set-up.
Q: Is there a timeline for JCW, and Will it still have prince?
A: Look for the new generation JCW to launch around 18 months after the F56 this fall. That means Spring of 2015. It will have an entirely new and more powerful engine.
Q: Will there be any other grill options (JCW) that mask the giant gulping fish mouth?
A. There will be a JCW Aero-kit available likely in the spring. It's unclear how it will change the look of the car.
A: For the first time it's possible. If and when has yet to be decided.
Q: Will there be trim blackout options?
A: Unclear but we hope.
Q: Any ideas on the 4 different interior trim levels? Why does the spyshots show two different spoilers on the MCS? Are 18″ alloys confirmed as factory fit?
A: No. Likely due to different trim levels. Not yet but we're working on it.
Q: Are there going to be different "lines" – think BMW's lines (M Sport, Luxury, etc) for the specific models?
A: We believe so.
Q: With the F56 to replace the R56 late this fall in Europe & early next year in the US, will any of the other current models (ie: R57-61) be tied to any of the changes offered in the F56??
A: No.
Q: All the talk so far has been about the 1.5L 3 cyl. Is that just for the base non turbo, or to include the S?
A: That's on the Cooper and below. The MCS and eventually the new JCW will get a 2.0 four cylinder.
Q: Since 2007 the same 1.6L has been used across all models with 3 main power configurations. That's 7 years with minimal power improvements & fuel economy using the same engine. ? A: Ok that's not a question but we just had to throw this statement in to emphasize the issue at hand and why MINI is moving to the 2.0L for higher output applications.
Q: Backup cameras as an option beyond the current backup detection system?
A: Yes it'll be option 3AG.
Q: Will the F56 really be as ugly as the spy photos revealed?
A: It looks better and much less flat in the front.
Q: is there going to be any "blind spot" option ? (oh please say yes)
A: We believe so.
Q: Will the taillights have a simliar look to the Paceman.
A: No but they will be larger version of what the R56 has.
Q: Is the F56 going to be the third MINI to have its name blasted over the rear hatch?
A: No because it would just say MINI. MINI believes the hatch should be iconic enough to be recognizable.
Q:How long after the F56 release will we see the revised Clubman? That is the car that is next in line for release, yes?
A: No. The next car scheduled for release is the F55 five door MINI. That should happen late next year with the Convertible following in the spring of 2015. Then we should see the Clubman shortly afterwards.
Q: Love the roadster; want the F56 goodies. Please tell me the coupe and roadster won't end with the R56 platform.
A: It will continue production for a few more years. Exact timing seems to be shifting a bit but BMW typically has seven year product cycles.

The dad is a highschool chemistry teacher who finds out he has cancer and only has like a year to live. He then runs into an old highschool student who's known for selling meth and he starts to cook it. Story goes on from there, but it's a sweet show with some real good acting.

No. 4 Kansas beats Texas Tech 79-42
LAWRENCE, Kan. Texas Tech coach Chris Walker is the first to say his team was overmatched Monday night.
He said at this point in the Red Raiders' development, they aren't even really in a position to look at the scoreboard for success.
That was probably a good attitude to take on a night like this.
Texas Tech trailed by as many as 41 points before losing 79-42 to No. 4 Kansas on senior night.
From the opening tip, Kansas soared for alley-oop passes and dunked over the Red Raiders, who finished with their lowest point total of the season and shot 26.4 percent against the top-ranked team in the nation in field goal defense.
"I thought that we lacked a little bit of toughness that would have negated some of those things," Walker said. "Once it starts spiraling downward, it was tough for us to come back from it and then it was just open season."
Texas Tech had nine field goals and nine turnovers in the first half. For the game, the Red Raiders had 14 turnovers and 14 field goals. They were outrebounded for the ninth time in 10 games.
"It is hard to swallow, but it's Kansas," said Jordan Tolbert who led the Red Raiders with 16 points. "It's not just any regular team."
Kansas' four seniors were determined not to get caught up in the emotion of their final appearance in perpetually amped-up, sold-out Allen Fieldhouse, and all four had big games.
"Today's been kind of crazy," said center Jeff Withey, who had 22 points and nine rebounds. "You try not to think about what's really going on, playing for the last time in the fieldhouse. For me personally, it hasn't really hit me. I don't think it will for a while."
Kevin Young had 14 points and fellow senior Travis Releford 13 added while point guard Elijah Johnson, the fourth member of the class, had seven points and 12 assists. The Jayhawks (26-4, 14-3 Big 12) took a half-game lead over No. 9 Kansas State in their quest for a ninth straight conference title.
"It's time to rock out. It's time to get to business, and I think we all knew that," said Johnson, who has 22 assists the past two games. "I honestly think the reason it hasn't hit all of us as far as this being the last (home) game is cause we're so focused on what we've got to do. So we're not dwelling on the moment. We know there's stuff to be done. That's where our heads are right now."
Redshirt freshman Ben McLemore, a potential NBA lottery pick who was probably also playing his last game in Allen Fieldhouse, had 13 points.
Fueled by Young and Withey, Kansas unleashed a 19-2 run to take a 45-20 halftime lead over the outmanned Red Raiders (10-18, 3-14). Withey and McLemore combined to score the first 10 points in a 16-3 run to open the second half.
Jordan Tolbert had 16 points for Texas Tech, which lost 60-46 at home to Kansas earlier this season.

4-Year-Old Mayor Is the Cutest Politician You Will Ever See
Experience isn't always the most important qualification for a politician. Sometimes dimples work just fine.
Experience isn't always the most important qualification for a politician. Sometimes dimples work just fine.
'I Will Always Love You' isn't an easy song to sing. That's why the late Whitney Houston's flawless take on the Dolly Parton-penned tune became one of the biggest hits in music history. But a woman on an American Airlines flight between Los Angeles and New York's version of the song wasn't as well received.

But folks over in England got a pretty good glimpse of the powers of Bruce Banner's cousin during a violent incident late last month.
Joshua Malatino wants to control all the fudgesicle trade that goes down in Gloversville, New York. And he's willing to resort to some pretty shady tactics to maintain market dominance.
Since the members of Iron Maiden are all well into their 50s it shouldn't be a big surprise that some fans of the seminal heavy metal band are now old enough to collect retirement benefits.
Instead it's what a 71-year-old woman from Stockholm, Sweden and her 81-year-old husband did with their Iron Maiden record collection that's noteworthy.
We feel kind of bad that Henry Gribbohm lost his life savings, totaling $2,600, on a carnival game, but at the same time...COME ON, DUDE!
If you spend a lot of time with high school students you should be pretty well acquainted with Taco Bell.
Which is why it's surprising that the delicious fast food was able to cause so much confusion at Del Campo High School in Sacramento, California.
There's nothing quite as eerie as a ghost town. When a city, village or large area once inhabited by human beings is deserted, the feeling most people (who dare visit the abandoned place) are left with is one of a creepy world inhabited by ghosts. The reasons for a massive flock of people to forsake an entire city vary, but that doesn't change the fact that spooky ghost towns can make our collective skin crawl.
Anyone who has enough money to buy a costume can dress up as your favorite superhero or Muppet. And that's beginning to become a problem.
On July 7, 1999, Dave Whipple bought a McDonald's hamburger. The Utah man didn't intend to eat it, but instead he wanted to prove that the burger was so pumped full of preservatives that it would look the same after a month.
If you want a loaf of bread there are dozens of different types and flavors to chose from. Snake bread, however, is not something you're usually going to find at your local supermarket.
Just about everyone has dreamt about quitting a job in a grand fashion. Not only was Chris Holmes able to pull off a splashy exit from his nine-to-five as a border control agent at London's Stansted Airport, but he was able to do so in a way that should drum up some business for his new endeavor.
It's unclear exactly what exactly Jerimiah Hartline was on last Saturday night, but it's safe to say it was pretty strong.
In his altered state the 19-year-old from Tennessee decided to steal a big rig full of strawberries that had been parked in a weigh station at a Rainbow, California rest stop.

Green Economic Development (GED)
What is the project about?
From an energy consumption perspective, Bosnia and Herzegovina is characterized as a country with very high inefficiency within the residential, non-residential/public, industry and service sector. At the same time; however, Bosnia and Herzegovina has one of the most significant energy conservation potentials in the region and could base its further mid-term economic development and generation of new employment on energy efficiency improvement measures in the residential and public sector.
The country consumes about 20% of its GDP on energy, which is three times higher than in the EU countries and the US. According to the Report "Regular Review of Energy Efficiency Strategies in BiH" prepared under the obligations of the Energy Charter Treaty, gross total primary energy consumed per unit of GDP is 0.938 toe / USD 2000 , which is 2.5 times the average of 27 EU countries and higher than almost any other country in the SEE region.
Average energy consumption of public buildings in Bosnia and Herzegovina is three times higher than the EU average, categorizing them as completely energy inefficient buildings (in accordance to EU Eco-Management and Audit Scheme – EMAS). In order to meet this energy intensive consumption demand, a significant amount of budget funds must be allocated for energy expenditures of public buildings (educational, health, cultural, municipal and entity/state institutions etc.) representing a major proportion of the already inadequate public budget.
The main goals of the GREEN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT (GED) project are:
- To reduce spending of public funds on energy and water consumption (by increasing energy efficiency and utilizing renewables) and
- To enable favorable environment for investment into infrastructure energy efficiency measures while generating "green jobs".
What we do?
The GREEN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT project aims to institutionalize the energy management activities within the public sector buildings in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Those activities contribute and are in line with EU directives (Energy Service Directive, EPBD directive), the Energy Community Treaty and BiH's obligation to report on current energy consumption and energy savings in accordance with Energy Efficiency Action Plans. Currently local authorities and relevant ministries lack of human and financial resources to cover these activities.
Therefore, focus is made towards Cantonal Governments and Entity Government (in particular sectorial ministries), as a first step in a chain towards institutionalization of Energy management and Energy Efficiency Action Plans in the public sector.
Expected Results
- Inventory of public building energy consumption and energy characteristics drafted.
- Energy Management Information System (EMIS) institutionalized – serving as an instrument for selected administrations to conduct continuous adaptation and improvement of action plans and prioritization of energy efficiency interventions and projects
- Energy consumption and energy efficiency improvement measures in public buildings are followed and collected based on a systematic approach in all public sector buildings within relevant cantonal and Ministries jurisdictions
- Staff of selected public administrations trained in information collecting and providing adequate reports/analyses that contribute to implementation of action plans and BiH's obligations to Energy Community Treaty and other EU directives
- Promotion of energy management and energy efficiency
• Generated employment – green jobs
• Bosnia and Herzegovina is able to make informed policy and investment decisions, that reduce GHG emissions, reduce poverty, create new employment opportunities and jobs and move societies towards long term sustainability
What have we accomplished so far?
Since 2009, UNDP is one of the leading agencies promoting Energy Efficiency in Bosnia and Herzegovina, primarily acting within MDG-F Environment and Climate Change programme. Focus of our work was on piloting introduction of energy efficiency in the public sector across Bosnia and Herzegovina by implementation of replicable energy efficiency projects and introduction of EMIS into more than 550 public buildings.
Also, UNDP focused on CO2 emission reduction, preservation of limited natural resources, enabling budget savings, improving quality of life, and creation of new employment opportunities – "green jobs", assist local administrations level for absorption of new funds, increase awareness and create understanding for energy efficiency and its resulting benefits.
To date, total of 38 Energy Efficiency pilot projects (small to medium/high scale) were implemented across the country with following results:
Total of 664 man/months of employment achieved by implementation of EE/RES measures that created €350,000 worth in salaries.
More than 700,000 USD are saved annually thanks to decreased energy consumption costs.

J. Brooks Jackson, M.D., M.B.A., an internationally recognized researcher in HIV diagnostics, prevention and treatment, is the new director of the department of pathology at Johns Hopkins. Jackson succeeds Fred Sanfilippo, M.D., Ph.D., who was the department's director for seven years.
coming to Hopkins in 1996, Jackson has been a professor of pathology and the
deputy director of pathology for clinical affairs. In September 2000, he was
named interim director of the department and pathologist in chief of Johns Hopkins
Hospital. Jackson, a clinical pathologist, and his colleagues have revolutionized
prevention of HIV infection in developing countries by identifying a low-cost,
simple and effective strategy to prevent transmission of the virus from women
to their infants during childbirth. He is currently principal investigator of
federal and private grants totaling more than $26 million. In addition to his
ground-breaking HIV research, Jackson is an active clinician, teacher and administrator.
"Dr. Jackson brings considerable experience to the position of director
and has served the department and Johns Hopkins Medicine well as interim director,
demonstrating exceptional leadership skills and garnering the respect of his
colleagues and others," says Edward D. Miller, M.D., dean of the Johns
Hopkins School of Medicine and CEO of Johns Hopkins Medicine.
The Department of Pathology, one of the largest and most active in the United
States, is a complex combination of pathology laboratories and services, research,
and education and training of medical students, graduate students, residents
and fellows. In 1993, the decision was made to consider these seemingly disparate
efforts as an integrated whole and to optimize productivity simultaneously rather
than independently. The risky decision appears to have been the right one, as
the department thrived under the leadership of Sanfilippo and under the temporary
directorship of Jackson. Jackson possesses the right combination of experience,
skills and personality to ensure the department's continued financial and scientific
success, according to the committee appointed by Miller to select a new director
of pathology.
Jackson received his bachelor's degree in history from Kenyon College in 1975, and his master's degree in business administration from Dartmouth in 1977. After a brief stint in his family's business, Jackson returned to Dartmouth, where he received his M.D. in 1982. During his residency in clinical pathology at the University of Minnesota Hospitals (1982-1985), he also was a blood bank fellow in the hospitals' department of laboratory medicine and pathology (1984-1985). Jackson then served as chief of clinical chemistry at the Veterans Administration Medical Center in Minneapolis (1985-1986), while he was an assistant professor of laboratory medicine and pathology at the University of Minnesota Medical School (1985-1989). From 1989 to 1996, Jackson was director of clinical pathology for the University Hospitals of Cleveland, and also during this time progressed to the rank of professor of pathology at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine.
In 1999, a landmark clinical trial in Uganda, led by Jackson and his colleagues,
showed that a drug called nevirapine could reduce the infection of infants to
just 13 percent of births, compared to 25 percent for AZT. Better yet, nevirapine,
an antiretroviral agent used as part of a drug cocktail to treat HIV infection
in the United States, provided this dramatic protection with just a single dose
for mother and a single dose for baby -- and for just $4 per mother-infant pair.

K.P.M. Basheer
KOCHI: The corporatised media are promoting communalism and nudging a right-wing shift in Indian society, according to Teesta Setalvad, human rights campaigner and co-editor of Communalism Combat.
Motivated by profits, the corporatised media were pandering to the sentiments of large sections of the middle class and urban elites who cheered on the communal divide and cowboy nationalism, she said. "The media have become part of the establishment, instead of remaining a critic of the establishment," she said.
She said the media had abandoned its role of the 'fourth estate' and guardian of democracy. The 'paid news' phenomenon, which was fast catching across the country, was a manifestation of the internal rote of the current Indian media, she told The Hindu in an interview. She said 'paid news' had been there for some time and suspected that the 'Narendra Modi for Prime Minister' campaign launched by certain media organisations during the run-up to the last Lok Sabha election was in fact a 'paid news' campaign.
Ms. Setalvad said that communalisation of the media had started in a big way in the early 1990s during the Ayodhya campaign. The RSS and Hindutva activists had infiltrated the media the same way as they had infiltrated the police, government departments and intelligence agencies. The Hindutva forces had also bought over senior journalists and editors to promote their sectarian agendas.
Ms. Setalvad, whose tireless legal battle could expose the connivance of the Modi government during the communal carnage in Gujarat, said there was a drastic fall in Indian media's professional standards. "Back in the 1970s and 80s, the media could make a difference in society, and journalists were able to stand up to governmental and political power." Now journalists were not willing to go out and do difficult stories; they were contented with what was handed out to them by governmental agencies or vested interests. The media swallowed whatever the government claimed over the Maoist violence in West Bengal and the Central Indian States. Very few journalists ventured into the Maoist-dominated areas to find out what socio-economic factors encouraged the tribes to join hands with the Maoists. The media had failed to expose the horrible atrocities committed against innocent people in the name of 'salwa judum.'
Ms. Setalvad said the increasing communal divide in the country was the result of a conscious, long-term effort. To poison young minds, school curriculums were stuffed with communally-coloured lessons. Lessons in history and social studies textbooks gave out a distorted picture that helped to foment hate against minorities. This was most evident in Gujarat.

Beautiful and Efficient
by User187422 on
We had a gate built across our driveway and it is lovely. The best part was dealing with the people. Everything from the bid, the phone calls and the final installation was great. There was no mess. If we decide to install more fencing we will definitely use them again. Abbey H, Salt Lake

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. We ordered new gates for an existing fence from Western Fence. We paid for the work on June 5th with explicit terms that the work would be done by August 1. We had a very large event in our backyard in August. The gates were installed the end of September with final work finished October 2. We were devastated. Additionally, the workmanship was horrible. They actually hung the latch on the gates upside down. My husband had to fix it and now we have drill holes in our brand new gates. And to top it all off, they would not honor the coupon they told us they would when we originally hired them. GO ANYWHERE ELSE but Western Fence. They violated our contract terms pretty much every way the could and still demanded full payment. Unethical. Unprofessional.
Beautiful custom fence
by User169441 on
Western Fence Co did a great job on our fence. They were fast, efficient, patient and careful. There were a lot of cuts, but they made sure everything lined up and cleaned every day. Shelby and Austin took obvious pride in their work and helped me come up with good solutions to problems that arose. I'd hire them again in a minute.
Job VERY well done!
by User169071 on
I was looking for railings for our 2nd home at Bear Lake. From day one, working with Tony, I knew our experience would be a good one. Until I saw the finished product, though, I didn't know just how good. The workmanship was excellent and far exceeded what we were expecting. The fabricator's excitement in an add-on we wanted was refreshing - he had great ideas to improve on what we wanted as a custom piece. I would be happy to refer Western Fence to anyone. The owner's concern for what he perceived as an issue was surprising. I didn't think the little "flub" was a big deal at all - but the owner wants to make sure it's perfect, so they are going to fix it for me (this "flub" is not something anyone would ever notice - but the owner did). I loved working with Tony and hope that I can do so again. Thanks to everyone at Western Fence for a job VERY well done.
Love my new fence
by User60936 on
My home looks so much better!! Thank you Western Fence for all you're great work! We love it and look forward to doing business again in the near future. Special thanks to Conception and his crew, Damien and his crew and J'enae Slaterin in the office. L. Coon

Poll looks into officials, Ukraine and missing jet
Polls, Editor Don Whitten writes, give us a snapshot of the general feeling the public has on given issues.

Adopting a once bitten twice shy approach, Pakistan tennis ace Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi is reluctant to renew his partnership with India's Rohan Bopanna, who parted ways with him last year.
The 'Express Tribune' reported that Aisam had turned down Bopanna's request insisting that his partnership with Dutchman Jean-Julien Rojer is working well.
Bopanna, who parted ways with Aisam at the end of last year and paired up with Mahesh Bhupathi keeping the London Olympics in mind, approached Aisam for next season but the Pakistani seemed reluctant to resume the partnership even though he is still undecided.
"Bopanna is a friend and I love to play with him but right now I am concentrating on making it to the London Masters," Aisam said.
"Right now my priority is to make it back into the top-eight and Rojer is working equally hard with me. We've found our way and I don't think I would want to change that."
This year, Aisam has won tournaments in Halle and Estoril while also reaching the semi-finals of the US Open.
"It's always about the team first and I am able to meet all the goals with Rojer. Last year was tricky and I respected Bopanna's wish but for now I am concentrating on the job at hand. So far my coach thinks that I can achieve the desired results with Rojer so I am sticking to that."
Since the split, Aisam has managed to keep his ranking in the top-15 doubles players. Currently, he is 13th while Bopanna, who has been banned from representing India in the Davis Cup by the country's tennis federation, is 15th.
The highlight of Aisam and Bopanna's partnership was when the duo reached the US Open final in 2010 where it lost to Bryan brothers.
"I'm extremely clear about my goals and I know I am working towards making it to the top. Rojer and I had our struggles but we have improved as a team with every tournament so I have to think in terms of results."
Keywords: Rohan Bopanna, Aisam-ul-Haq, Bryan brothers, Jean-Julien Rojer, 2012 London Olympics, Mahesh Bhupathi

Amen! Only by faith!
King Success, sis Cutekiki BY YOUR FAITH you ...........
By faith, the Israelites marched around the walls of Jericho for seven days, and the walls fell flat. (Hebrews 11:30 MSG)
Through acts of faith, they toppled kingdoms, made justice work, took the promises for themselves. They were protected from lions, (Hebrews 11:33 MSG)
Through acts of faith, they toppled kingdoms, made justice work, took the promises for themselves. They were protected from lions, fires, and sword thrusts, turned disadvantage to advantage, won battles, routed alien armies. (Hebrews 11:33, 34 MSG)
By faith, Kirstin won battles, secured victories and wrought great promises...
YES YES YES YES! Sis Kristin
Women received their loved ones back from the dead. There were those who, under torture, refused to give in and go free, preferring something better: resurrection. (Hebrews 11:35 MSG)
DID YOU hear that sis Kirstin!
By faith these people overthrew kingdoms, ruled with justice, and received what God had promised them. They shut the mouths of lions, quenched the flames of fire, and escaped death by the edge of the sword. Their weakness was turned to strength. They became strong in battle and put whole armies to flight. Women received their loved ones back again from death.
But others were tortured, refusing to turn from God in order to be set free. They placed their hope in a better life after the resurrection. (Hebrews 11:33-35 NLT)
Hey! My faith requires an exam or else how do achieve my next level!
My faith is my victory born of God overcoming ANYTHING!

Our city apartment is are centrally located on the famous Handelskade waterfront. Even if you've never been to Curacao, you have likely seen the colorful postcard-perfect section of Handelskade perched along the Santa Anna Bay. It is the collection of colorful buildings that you see in every Curacao postcard. This world UNECSO historic site is a vibrant reminder of Curaçao's Dutch heritage, as well as the most breathtaking part of Curacao.
The area is unique and is located in the heart of the city. We are only 15 minutes from the airport. The view from the apartment is phenomenal with panoramic views of the harbor, Otrobanda, the Queen Emma Bridge and Queen Juliana Bridge.
The apartment is decorated in modern style with an open floor plan. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a dishwasher, microwave, washer and dryer. The dining table seats six people. The apartment is spacious and has 2 bedrooms with air-conditioning and 2 bathrooms. The living room is air-conditioned as well and includes a 32 inch LCD TV with cable television and free wireless internet.
You'll also have plenty of privacy. All details have been attended in order to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The apartment is easily accessible by elevator or stairs.

Whether you're a city person or beach comber, give us a call and get the most out of your vacation.
I have always loved visiting the Island of Curacao. It has become my favorite place in the world. My parents are originally from Curacao and I visit here often. So when an opportunity came along for me to purchase a home on the famous Handelskade waterfront, I jumped at the opportunity to be part of this World Unesco Heritage site.
Jacqueline Capriles purchased this apartment in 2013
What I love about this property is that it is in the center of town overlooking the Santa Ana Bay. I enjoy the water, but not big on soaking in the sun all day. I like the country, but I'm more of a city person and rather be around people and a lively environment, yet have my privacy at the same time. This property gives me all this and more.
Here I am so close to everything. I can walk to stores, cafes, take in a movie at the theater, watch the ships sail from my balcony, go to the museum, restaurants, check out the live bands on the waterfront or even go clubbing at night and not have to drive anywhere.
We loved this apartment in the heart of Punda. Beautiful views and comfy beds. This apt. could easily house two couples. Easy to get to with a small elevator off the lobby. No complaints.
Had a wonderful 1 week stay at the apartment, the location and closeness to amenities was a great help for first time visitors to the Island. We had a great time trying out some of the local restaurants and shopping at nearby stores. We had an absolute blast watching all of the marine traffic going by the window every day. Have now seen some of the largest vessels we have ever witnessed in our lives! Loved it, and the people watching of course. The apartment is roomy and had good amenities. Our only complaint would be no plug ins in the restrooms for shavers and hairdryers, but was probably not a consideration when the building was reno'd, we learned to live with it so not a big deal. Jacquline, the owner was absolutely wonderful in answering any questions we had and also helped out with a problem we encountered with a second property that we had arranged for our second week out of town, she went above and beyond. We would definitely recommend this property for anyone who wants to be close to the action, it was fabulous!
My husband and I enjoyed our stay in the Luxe Apt. It was big for just the two of us but we seemed to use all the space available. The apt was clean and well equipped. Oven did not work but we were able to work around that. The manager, Nynke and her husband were very helpful with any need. They were on top an any problems we had such as DVD player and the phone that was provided for our use. The master bedroom air conditioner went out one night and was taken care of within 24 hours. There are 4 air conditioner units in the apt. so we were comfortable. We spent every evening on the balcony enjoying the views and music from the café below. The noise was never a problem at bedtime. We rented a car and used both the street parking and the parking over at Rif Fort. I did park most of the time on the street as it is a walk to Rif Fort and a bit of a drive to get there, Since My husband has difficulty walking, I had to get the car and bring it around to pick him up. Street parking if free from 6PM to 8AM and Sundays. $10.00 per day in meter if parked all day. Usually gone most of day anyway. Parking on floating marked side not bad after 6PM. But we were there in off season. The Governor restaurant across the water is a wonderful place to eat. Owner Jacqueline is helpful. Enjoy your stay!
We were two couples that shared this apartment. The location was perfect. It was within walking distance to everything you could do in Willemstad. We never tired of sitting on the balcony watching the Queen Emma bridge opening and the ships going by. It was also nice in the evenings to have live music from the Cafe Iguano just below. You could spend day and night being entertained on the balcony.
We were provided with everything we needed including a local cellphone. Jahmir picked us up at the Airport and brought us to the apartment. Then he brought to Mangusa's supermarket (which is huge). Jahmir was excellent and very courteous and helpful. Near the apartment is San Pedro supermarket which is small but adequate. Also nearby is the floating market with lots of fresh fruits, vegetables and seafood. The apartment is located within the shopping area comprised of many small stores. Unfortunately these all close early (by 8 PM) except full service bars and restaurants. It does warrant being more careful in these small streets where the shops are after things close though the apartment itself has a security person. The casinos are open late.
Although the apartment could have been cleaner it was very comfortable and provided us with everything we needed. The Air Conditioning worked very well, the beds were comfortable and there was lots of hot water.
The best burger ever was at the Q restaurant which also serves the Blue Ocean drink made with blue curacao. We had a great meal at the Steak and Ribs at the Rif Fort. Try the Tres Leche cake - to die for. Also make a great Mojito. Excellent location, food and service. In the alley next to the Q restaurant is also an interesting find. Part of the Don Marco building is a take out that has steady business serving local food. On the downside, the Burger Bar at Rif Fort had horrible service. The La Bahai at the Otrabanda Resort was mediocre at best though they tried.
The Kura Hulanda museum is a must see. It has a surprisingly vast array of artifacts including those from the slave era that was part of Curacao's history.
Overall we found it a very friendly island with no shortage of things to see and do. Being in the downtown area gave us a great introduction to Curacao. The history, architecture and culture are everywhere. We really enjoyed being there and would highly recommend going and staying at this apartment. The owner was great and responded quickly to requests.
We chose the town and country package for our stay in Curacao this time and now believe this is the only way to go!! Both homes were clean, well-stocked and easily located. Each property manager is extremely helpful and truly interested making our stay the best we've ever had!
Where do I begin? First, We stayed in the historical city of Willemstad. The 2 bedroom waterfront apartment was in the perfect location for shopping, casino, dining and listening to live music. We enjoyed a glass of wine while watching from our balcony, the Queen Emma Pontoon bridge open and tugs guide the large ships in and out of the harbor. We rented a car but no worries! The parking garage was free and easy to locate. The views of the city were just wonderful from the Riff Fort Diner.
Next it was a home on the northern side of the island in Westpunt. Again, the directions were simple and we found Marazul Dive Resort clean safe and beautifully landscaped. Our 3 bedroom home there was completely air conditioned and also well stocked with anything you might need including Snorkel gear!! We do not dive but the resort does have a dive shop on site for those who do. Our favorite part of MDR was the beautiful beaches a stone's throw away- collecting sea glass- cliff jumping and just lying at the pool in the Caribbean sun!
Both owners were extremely easy to work with and very prompt on their replies to questions. We will most definitely stay with Jacqueline and the Becks again!! WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PACKAGE!
This excellent spot along St. Anna Bay is a wonderful place to stay amid the best restaurants, shops, and markets. It is an incredible way to experience the best that Willemstad has to offer! It is quiet and peaceful during the day (with in incredible view of the floating Queen Emma bridge and Dutch architecture), and more lively at night with live music on patio restaurants below (that said, the music does not continue late and is easy to escape from if you close the balcony doors). This apartment offers the perfect blend of relaxation and activity in a safe and tremendously picturesque area. Jacqueline and the property manager in Curacao are also incredibly responsive and professional (we were picked up at the airport and given our pre-paid cell phone with ease, and when it seemed like there was a problem with the wi-fi, Jacqueline responded to our email right away and had the property manager come by - in the end, it was our laptop's fault, but we appreciated the quick reply!). We would definitely recommend for fun and family time alike!
The handelskade waterfront nettled above the santa ana bay. This area is unique and in the heart of the town. Here you'll find open markets, restaurants, tourist attractions, night life and other establishments all within walking distance.
Here are a few places we recommend to sight see.
Punda is the main shopping area of willemstad. The pedestrian-only streets create a picturesque atmosphere with many shops conveniently located in one area.
The queen emma bridge is a floating pontoon bridge, which swings perpendicular across the harbor and opens and closes so ships can pass through. This bridge has been nominated for the 8th wonder of the world.
The queen juliana bridge is a 1,625-foot-long bridge and stands 200 feet above the water. It's the highest bridge in the caribbean and affords breathtaking views of the city, day and night.
Around the corner from our location is where you'll find the floating markets, boats from venezuela and colombia bring in a colorful smorgasbord of fruits, vegetables and the day's fresh catch.
Next to the venezuelan floating fruit market, you can book a motor cruise eastwards on the insulinde with captain phil and his crew. He'll take you on a 3-hour cruise along the coast where you can snorkel over the famous sunken tugboat wreck lying in 14 feet (4m) water depth. This wreck is curacao's finest snorkel attraction.
The curaçao maritime museum takes visitors on a discovery tour of more then 500 years of maritime history of curaçao.
The kura hulanda museum boasts a size-able collection of african art – one of the largest in the caribbean.
The mikve israel-emanuel synagogue, is the oldest synagogue still in use in the new world. There is a jewish historical museum on the property, occupying two buildings that date to 1728. You'll find artifacts like a torah scroll, brought to the island by the first jewish settlers, and hand-wrought, centuries-old silver items once used in religious ceremonies.

Wagner Park
Mill St & Durant Avenue, Aspen, CO 81611Map
+1 970 920 5120
Neighborhood: Downtown
Located in the center of town, this park, which is the envy of every developer, defines Aspen's commitment to athletics. It encompasses almost two blocks and features a large playing field with rugby field goal posts, softball backstops and temporary soccer nets. Local youth and adult teams favor it for practices, and others use it for Frisbee and pick-up football games. Swings and slides border the Mill Street side, as does one of the only public bathrooms in town. It also serves as a great perch for people watching.

Public enemy
The Port continues to boldly go after the trite in its commissions
The Port deserves credit for creating a project that honors local labor history. There is precious little art that takes workers as a subject, past or present. Apparently, the idea took shape in the 1990s; former Port District Commissioner Frank Urtasun had family history attached to the tuna cannery industry and the current occupant of the site of this project, Continental Maritime, was obligated, as a leaseholder on Port property, to make a contribution to its public art program. It seemed like a good fit. (The Port paid $342,000 for the art; Continental Maritime gave $60,000 to help develop the site for use.)
But if all admirable intentions yielded art equal to them, the world would be densely populated with great art. And with this tribute, the gap between intentions and results is a chasm.
The project, as constructed, can't make up its mind about hat it wants to be.
On one hand, it offers realistic details about the life of cannery workers and the rise and fall of the industry locally. (That history, which begins about 1902, lasted eight decades.) Hours were long: 12 to 14 hours straight when the fish needed to be processed. And when bells rang at a cannery, the workers came running. In a sense, they were on call. Though the pay was modest in the 1920s – $10 a day on average for women and slightly more for men – the industry provided steady work for thousands of people. But like so many industries, the production migrated to other countries where companies could pay workers less. The last of the canneries, Bumblebee, closed in 1983.
Yet contrary to the history we can glean from the plaques, the sculptures convey a message of happy workers, who look as if they were simply frolicking mindlessly in the sun. Two of them, male figures on pedestals, are heaving fish, in a long, perfectly formed arch, from one basket to another. Or maybe the fish are simply flying from one basket to another; it's hard to tell. Then, at ground level, is a smiling woman in bronze, holding up one big tuna, as if offering it to us.
The group of figures is also devoid of any poetry, or any moving dimension of realism. These are the bronze equivalent of cardboard cutouts: blandly generic. Collaboration can yield inspired art, but this looks like art made by committee, production line stuff. And that look is unfortunately reinforced by the collective credit line of the artists awarded this commission: Nature Works Inc.
Go to their Web site (the partners are Nancy Moran and Valerie Salatino) and you find that they are skilled artisans in what they call the scenic industry: They make fake trees, bark, moss, rock walls, skeletons and other sights and they make them look exceedingly real. One of their other projects is Vinehenge, a whimsical sculpture park/playground in Escondido, with a big grape cavern and a climbing vine structure. They have also done work for Hong Kong Disneyland and both the San Diego Zoo and the Wild Animal Park. Moran's sister-in-law, Sheila Moran, was also listed as collaborator; she created the plaques and cast one of the male figures. Nancy Moran also created some colorful rays in mosaic to evoke the image of the sun, which extend in all directions from a circular wall that surround a large, handsome tree on the site.

SNAPin Announces Support for Nokia S60 3rd Edition Platform; SNAPin SelfService Will Improve Customer Experience and Feature Adoption for the Leading Smart Phone Platform.
"By making it easier for operators to sell and support the sophisticated features and services that Nokia's handsets are capable of, SNAPin's self-service software increases the potential market for these devices," said Robert Lewis, president and chief executive officer of SNAPin Software. "Mobile operators around the world are discovering how SNAPin's SelfService product suite can enable them to drive sales of advanced services and devices, while saving millions every month in reduced customer support costs and increasing data services revenue."
The SNAPin SelfService product suite can support mobile devices across all networks, giving mobile operators an unprecedented ability to monitor and manage their subscribers' service experience. SelfService guides and trains users about applications and services, monitors and reports on subscriber behavior, reports on network events, automatically diagnoses and repairs problems, and most importantly -- intercepts calls to customer care and resolves them right on the device.
"Usability problems continue to dog the delivery of many mobile data services," said Jessica Figueras, Practice Leader at the research and consulting firm Ovum. "We are seeing enormous interest from mobile operators in technologies that enable them to manage the user experience in an end-to-end fashion -- from the back-end, right down to the mobile handset."
At CTIA IT & Entertainment in its booth #207, SNAPin will provide live demonstrations of the SNAPin SelfService product suite, which includes SelfService Guide, SelfService Care, SelfService Diagnostics and SelfService Metrics. The demonstrations will show how mobile operators can offer their customers self-service training to take advantage of advanced services such as MMS, configuring e-mail applications and Bluetooth devices, and help resolve memory problems. The demonstrations will show how customer-care issues can be intercepted on the device, or how mobile operators may use SNAPin SelfService to support marketing and promotional campaigns, among a wide range of possible uses of the software.
About SNAPin Software
