Objective: To evaluate the impact of cervical length (CL) measurements in pregnant women at risk for preterm delivery on intervention and pregnancy outcome.
Design: Retrospective study.
Setting: Regional high-level II maternity unit.
Methods: Hospital databases were reviewed for all women delivering between March 2001 and March 2003. Women at an increased risk for preterm birth with transvaginal (TV) cervical length measurements during pregnancy were included in this audit. Patients (n = 204) were analysed together and in subgroups with different risk profiles.
Results: For women with a significant obstetrical history, most of the cervical lengths ≤ 2.5 cm were found between 24 and 28 weeks gestational age. None of the patients with twin pregnancy as single indication for cervical length measurements developed a cervical length ≤ 2.5 cm. In women with twin pregnancy plus additional risk factor as indication for cervical length measurement, 60.87% showed shortening of cervical length to ≤ 2.5 cm. Patients with previous gynaecological operations as the only risk factor had optimal perinatal outcomes. Notwithstanding the potential beneficial effects of therapeutic measures, patients with singleton pregnancies and a significant obstetrical history, and a short cervical length had a relative risk of 3 for preterm delivery. In the group of women presenting with signs and symptoms suggestive of threatening preterm delivery and a short cervical length, significantly more patients were treated with nifedipine compared to similar patients with 'normal' cervical length.
Conclusions: For patients with a high-risk obstetrical history, a first cervical length measurement at the time of foetal morphology scan followed by one measurement at about 24 weeks would result in a timely diagnosis of almost all cases of clinically relevant cervical shortening. Just having a twin pregnancy, in the absence of other risk factors for preterm birth, does not require cervical length monitoring. Having a twin pregnancy plus additional risk factors clearly identifies a group requiring cervical length measurement and intervention. Previous LLETZ procedures or ≥ 3 preceding curettages were not found to be a major risk factor for preterm birth.

YIELD: Makes 6 servings
Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. Add bell peppers and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and just beginning to brown, 10–12 minutes.
Add tomatoes, garlic, jalapeño, basil, oregano, chili powder, and paprika to pot. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are very soft and liquid is thickened, 20–30 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Discard jalapeño.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Transfer bell pepper mixture to a 13x9" baking dish. Using the back of a spoon, make 6 evenly spaced divots in mixture. Spoon a dollop of ricotta into each divot, then crack 1 egg into each. Top with cheddar and Parmesan; season with salt and pepper. Bake, rotating dish halfway through, until Parmesan is melted and egg whites are almost set but yolks are still runny, 15–18 minutes.
Serve baked eggs with toast. (Yolks will continue to cook as dish sits, so serve right away if you prefer your eggs soft.)
DO AHEAD: Bell pepper mixture can be cooked 1 day ahead. Let cool; cover and chill.

Books to Read with Dad!
Hello everyone!
Father's Day is this Sunday! What a perfect opportunity to spend time with and celebrate your father, gradfather, uncle, and other father figures.
Here is a list of some fun books to read with your Dad and other male role models:
I hope you are all having fun reading for Summer Reading Club!
If you read any of these books with your family, remember to write them down on your reading log!
Getting ready for Kindergarten
Kindergarten can be a tough transition for parents, but there are a few easy, fun activities you can do with your preschoolers to help them have an awesome Kindergarten experience! We don't expect them to be reading by the time they enter Kindergarten, but these are things that will prepare them to start learning to read. This short list is based on an excellent post from the It's Always Autumn blog:
1. Recognize basic shapes
2. Count up to 20
3. Recognize all the letters in the alphabet
4. Be able to write their first name
5. Recognize rhyming words
6. Hold a pencil
7. Share with other children
8. Sit quietly and pay attention
Many of these activities can be done at home using very basic materials. If your child is struggling with sharing or sitting quietly, take advantage of the many storytimes we are offering during the week and on Saturdays for Summer Reading Club this summer. Our storytimes are intended to prepare preschoolers for the structure and literacy skills they will need in Kindergarten-but they are also silly, energetic, musical, and interactive!
Here are a few free, easy resources to use at home:
Obviously, I'm a fan of Pancake Manor (all videos free on Youtube).
Also-you can READ READ READ! Let your child choose a picture book based on their favorite themes or characters at the newly organized East Branch!

Fine Arts Superheroes
Fine Arts and Children
Early exposure to music and the arts is essential to developing creativity in young children. As children grow older, creativity helps make sense of the world around them. Participation in fine arts programming helps with the development of fine motor skills, creativity and improved emotional balance.
Fine arts include art, dance, music, and theatre. When involvement with the arts is a basic part of the learning process, fine arts programming:
- Brings engagement – fun and entertainment to learning,
- Re-ignites the love of learning,
- Helps build children's understanding of relationships –greater understanding of diversity and peer support by reducing conflicts and increasing problem solving, cooperation and collaboration,
- Provides challenges for children at every level, from basic to gifted and talented, and
- Encourages children to become sustained, self-directed learners seeking to extend their own learning.
Fine arts experiences promote self-esteem, motivation, aesthetic awareness, cultural exposure, creativity, and improved emotional expression.
Help your children become HEROES this summer …Stop the Summer Slide by reading a few minutes each day and create a hero story by attending fine arts programming sponsored by your local library.

Britain's trade union movement: why strike?
The public sector strike on November 30 will be the largest strike in the UK since the general strike of 1926.
Two to three million workers could take part. Unlike our continental counterparts, coordinated strikes of this kind are extremely rare in the British trade union movement. As such, its political importance, if the action is successful, will be much greater than in the continent.
Why has it come to this? In a sense, the answer is obvious. 'Austerity' involves the most serious attempt to restructure the economy, to the detriment of working class living standards, in decades. It involves reducing wages and pensions, diminishing bargaining rights, cutting jobs and reducing the bargaining power of labour. Everywhere that these measures have been introduced, whether in Wisconsin or Greece, there has been resistance.
Yet, there was no guarantee that the British trade union movement would respond in the way that it has. Decades of declining union composition since the serious defeats inflicted on organised labour – notably, on the miners and the print workers – have left unions in a weaker position.
The orthodoxy among trade union leaders since then has been a form of tactical conservatism known as the 'new realism'. This approach involved unions avoiding confrontation in favour of bargaining with the government of the day. Every sign until last year was that the Trade Unions Congress (TUC) would adopt this approach in dealing with the government's cuts, negotiating to mitigate the effects of cutbacks rather than seriously attempting to obstruct them. Indeed, before grumblings from the shop floor scuppered the plan, union leaders had intended to invite prime minister David Cameron to address congress last year. So, what changed?
The answer must begin outside the trade unions, in the wider political arguments that the government has been trying to win. Initially, the coalition government of Liberals and Tories, though unelected, carried considerable good will, and polls registered broad public support for its agenda of public spending cuts. It seemed that the old Thatcherite ideological thematics were winning ground.
According to this perspective, the state should be run rather like a household or a small family business, keeping its books in order and minimising its outgoings. The discipline of the market – with its threats of unemployment and bankruptcy – should be allowed to filter out inefficiency in the economy and restore dynamism. And at last, obstructive monopolies such as trade unions and the public sector should be pared down, freeing up the market in order that it may exert its remedial effects.
In this vein, the Tories seemed to have persuaded people that the problem was one of an over-extended public sector, spending well beyond its means while everyone else had to 'tighten their belts'.
Yet, as much as these arguments have a superficial allure, they had already been weakened by the evident failures of the market since 2007. And as time went on, and austerity seemed to return only bankrupt economies and greater instability throughout the Eurozone, they became weaker still.
Further, public attitudes are never simply one-dimensional. They are complex, ambivalent, comprising elements that vie for dominance at any given time. The same people who broadly supported cuts to benefits also opposed cuts to higher education and the NHS. Similarly, while many swallowed whole the idea that 'some cuts' were necessary, this conflicted with a competing perception that economic revival depended on job creation and investment.
As the private sector has remained moribund, with companies holding on to billions in spare capital, the logical answer was for this investment to come from the government. The 'social democratic' common sense was in conflict with the 'free market' common sense, and increasingly the former has had the advantage.
That gradual shift in public opinion was compounded by several developments, the first of which was an unexpected cannonade of activism from students, beginning with a 50,000 strong protest in central London in November 2010 over the issue of tuition fee hikes and the abolition of the Education Maintenance Allowance, which helped poor students to have an income will studying A Levels. The effect of tripling tuition fees and cutting allowances was to block the path of higher education for future generations of working class people, and it was treated as a declaration of war. Conservative headquarters were occupied in a spontaneous deviation from the main march, and – seemingly out of nowhere – a movement emerged.
Subsequent protests drew especially multiracial and working class crowds of students; people from the 'British banlieue', as BBC Newsnight's economics editor Paul Mason put it. These protests were not as large, but they were militant, with students inclined to break up into groups and go randomly dashing off to find places to occupy. Universities were occupied, and the Liberal leader Nick Clegg – who had campaigned against tuition fees – became a national hate figure.
The effect of this on the trade union movement is hard to overstate. Most trade unions avoided association with the more combative protests, aligning instead with the National Union of Students leadership, which organised separate (tiny, insignificant) protests away from the main event. However, they nonetheless felt obliged to defer to the student movement, and alliances between student activists and grassroots trade unionists began to emerge. This tipped the balance regarding arguments within the trade unions. The TUC had called a protest against cuts for March 2011. At the time, this was seen as too little, too late; a timid response to a government on the warpath. But, with the students putting the government on the defensive, it became increasingly clear that the march would become a launch pad for nationwide strike action.
It was a straightforward success. Half a million people turned up at the protest, representing not just public sector workers, but practically every component of the British working class. Student groups were visible, as were members of the anti-austerity group UK Uncut, which is known for flash mobbing tax-avoiding businesses and which occupied the premises of Fortnum and Masons on the day. Every union was represented on the march, but among the most popular union leaders was the head of the civil servants union, Mark Serwotka, who argued that if it was possible to march together, then it should be possible to strike together.
The role of smaller unions unaffiliated to the Labour Party, such as that led by Mark Serwotka, has been extremely important. These have been the most willing to have a fight with the government. This is true especially in traditionally conservative unions such as the Association of Teachers and Lecturers and the Royal College of Nursing, which until 1995 ruled out any form of strike action. Part of the explanation for this is that these unions represent what used to be professionalised groups of workers undergoing a process of "proletarianisation", in which their wages, entitlements and work patterns increasingly resemble those of other service employees. But just as importantly, they have no tradition of working through the Labour leadership, which has been reluctant to support any form of industrial action.
These unions organised a strike involving hundreds of thousands of workers on June 30, and in so doing put enormous pressure on the remaining union leaderships to join in. They demonstrated that among the key group of workers that the government needed to convince, the argument for cuts had decisively been lost.
The vital link between the smaller unions and the larger Labour-affiliated ones is Unite, currently the second largest trade union in the UK next to UNISON. Len McCluskey, its recently elected left-wing leader, was one of the few union leaders to unequivocally back the student protesters, and supported strike action at the March demonstration. Unite did not join the June strike, although some of its local sections did, and it did indicate that it would support an autumn strike action.
This left the leaders of UNISON and the GMB in a difficult situation. If they could not return a half-way decent compromise from negotiations with the government, they were under pressure to either join the strike or risk losing their position.
And this, crucially, is where the government lost the argument. Had it been willing to offer substantial concessions to the larger unions, it is very unlikely that they would have joined strike action. Yet the hallmark of this administration has been an extraordinary insouciance about popular opposition.
The summer riots, for example, had been anticipated by various parties but, according to the head of the Police Federation, the Home Secretary Theresa May had dismissed these warnings as scaremongering. Similarly, rather than take the unions seriously as a potentially formidable opponent, the government has been unwilling to negotiate on any of the main planks of its agenda – a point which Serwotka used to hammer the government minister Francis Maude in the days before the June strike.
The last time a government attempted a restructuring of this scale was a quarter of a century ago. It is not well remembered that when the Thatcher administration came to power in 1979, it did not immediately foreground its intention to take on the trade unions. Indeed, part of its plan was to make concessions to the more powerful unions while inflicting a string of defeats on the smaller unions in order to weaken the labour movement as a whole. Only later did it attempt to take on any of the 'big battalions' of organised labour, such as the miners. This is where the government's complacency has cost it.
Today, after so many years of inertia and caution, the trade union movement doesn't have any 'big battalions' in the old sense. There is no single group of workers identifiable for its militancy and resilience, which can lead the labour movement as a whole. Consequently, most groups of workers don't want to take action alone. They would rather fight, if they have to, with as many others on their side as possible. By refusing to negotiate over the keynotes of their agenda, the government have ensured a broad response. The votes for strike action in all of the unions have been very high: no lower than 70 per cent in all cases, and higher than 80 per cent in most cases. The mandate is clear.
Worse for the government, recent polling suggests that public opinion has swung behind the strikers. There is a predictable class bias in the results, with 'AB' groups less likely to support action than C1, C2 and DE groups. The highest support for the strike is among the 18-24 demographic, at an astonishing 79 per cent. This indicates that the emerging alliance between unions, the students, younger anti-cuts activists and participants in the 'Occupy' movement, is already having a profound effect on attitudes. Of course, this is only an opinion poll.
As indicated previously, public attitudes are complex and susceptible to rapid change. This is why government ministers and strategists treat poll data as raw material to be worked on, rather than as merely a given. But the same poll suggests more bad news for the government, which is that only a small minority, 23 per cent, think the government have handled the economy well.
Opinions are hardening against the administration, which has lost the argument over cuts, first with the smaller unions, then with the trade union movement as a whole, and finally with the public at large. Given the current tendencies, with the economy stagnating, at risk of a new recession, and destabilised by the Eurozone crisis, this won't be easy to reverse.
An intriguing side effect of the current situation is a moderate but nonetheless significant shift in the rhetoric of the Labour Party. Ed Miliband, the centrist leader of the party, has always made it clear that he will not support strike action. His tone on being elected to the leadership was brusque: the public would have no truck with disruptive strikes, and neither would he. But as time has gone on, the tone has softened perceptibly.
The Blairite former leadership contender Alan Johnson has defended the unions' right to strike over this issue, while the shadow chancellor Ed Balls has confessed "huge sympathy" for the strikers. Ed Miliband still insists that he cannot support strikes, and the shadow cabinet voted recently to oppose the November 30 action. Nonetheless, he insists it is wrong to 'demonise' the strikers, and holds the government mainly responsible for the situation.
Opposing the strikes, even while expressing sympathy, places the Labour leadership against not only the trade union members who fund the party, but a clear majority of Labour voters. But they are compelled to take this prevaricating position by a number of factors.
The first is that the Labour Party's leaders are aware of having lost five million of their core, working class votes since 1997. They need to rebuild their base, and thus can't afford to be outright hostile to the unions or to the social movements that have arisen in opposition to austerity.
Secondly, however, they have no clear alternative growth formula, and share the Tories's basic conviction that reviving the private sector and the City of London is the key to success. They thus speak of a slower, kinder process of cuts. As Labour MP Ronnie Campbell put it before the last election, "we will only cut your throat slowly, the others will cut your head off". Because they know that if they were in office they would be administering many of the same policies, their criticism of the government is purely over its handling of negotiations. This prevents Labour from benefiting appreciably from the government's unpopularity. Its average poll lead has remained stuck at 5 per cent since Miliband became leader.
The third factor is, paradoxically, a cynical psephological one: the strikes may have been provoked by an unpopular government, and may even have public support, but could still lose. And electorally, the opposition does not want to be tied to a sinking ship. Their caution is shaped by the experience of the 1980s, during which the party almost faced wipe-out as a result of an historic split in its electoral coalition, and the defeat of its union base. But it is also related to their needs as a party seeking to govern.
In opposition, they must cultivate their base in the working class heartlands, and in the trade union movement. But in government, they must pass laws with the cooperation or at least acquiescence of business – and they have never been happy with mere acquiescence. To support industrial action would fatally undermine their relationship with corporate Britannia.
Yet, and this is the final answer to the question 'why strike?', all of this cynical positioning by the Labour leadership constantly erodes its relationship with ordinary trade unionists. It was they who put Ed Miliband where he is, but they are not mere cannon fodder for the leadership. In the last decade, the link between Labour and the unions was repeatedly threatened by severe splits over issues such as privatisation and public spending. But the worst of these crises was contained within the smaller unions, working in sectors – mail, the civil service – most immediately affected by cutbacks. The current cuts are far more serious and far more general in their effects.
Labour's weak response means that it cannot offer a parliamentary strategy for resisting the cuts, and nor does it have the credibility in the labour movement to persuade people to hold their fire and wait for the election. As such, the real leadership of the labour movement is increasingly falling not to the Parliamentary Labour Party, but to the rank and file. I do not wish to exaggerate this point: it is a tendency, not a concluded fact.
The trade union leaders are still the ones who say when strike action occurs, over what issue. No group of workers has taken 'wildcat' action in this dispute, and this is very far from the shop stewards movements of the Sixties and Seventies. Even so, union leaders have felt compelled to react to the feelings of their base in order to avoid losing the initiative. And it is the hardening of attitudes among the rank and file by this process that most worries the government - rightly so. Bargaining with the union leaders will become much harder in that case, and conflicts much more intense. The coalition may yet come to regret its early complacency.

Who Killed the Wedding Planner??
School psychologist Skye Denison is already in a tizzy of
indecision contemplating her boyfriend Wally's marriage
proposal when she very reluctantly agrees to act as maid of
honor in her California cousin's over-the-top platinum-style
wedding. What's more, she's expected to assist the
control-freak wedding planner, which means being available
to help 24-7. There goes Skye's much-needed summer break....
Then Skye discovers the flawlessly chic wedding planner
lying not so flawlessly dead less than a week before the big
event. Suddenly Skye is working double duty on two fronts:
making sure every elaborate nuptial detail is executed
perfectly, from the butterfly release to the martini luge,
and helping the police find out who hated the bossy bridal
consultant enough to bash her on the head. Can Skye get her
cousin to the church on time � and save herself from a
killer who may actually be on the guest list?

The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings fans the latest news and inside information on the Brewers
Rockies interested in Coffey
Here is a report that says that the Colorado Rockies are looking at several relievers, including Todd Coffey.
Coffey became a free agent when he was non-tendered by the Brewers, meaning he was not offered a contract for 2011. Coffey made more than $2 million and the Brewers didn't want to risk paying even more than that through arbitration.
The relief market is heating up now, with teams signing them left and right. You have to assume Coffey will get a deal at some point. He slipped in 2010 but he's still a workhorse who will take the ball a lot.

The moon's crookedness is caused by our going toward the center of the galactic plane
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward
Post Content
In our EU, the usual nearer and stronger EM forces of the sun keep us oriented--usually.
However as we approach galactic center, the forces there are so strong that we tilt even moreso sometimes (given whatever conditions we pass through at any given time), giving that mushroom smoking Cat like grin to the moon we witness, sometimes, even out of season.
Not to mention the polar disarray the sun is also going through not only with its own solar cycles (of which are bad enough), but--again--approaching galactic center.
These are signs of our impending pole shift.
Anonymous Coward 22569292
Good grief!
Not this crap again.
1) We are currently headed AWAY from the plane of the galaxy
2) The Moon is fine, not 'crooked' at all - It is SUPPOSED to tilt.
There's an old navigational trick, taught to me by my grandfather 35yrs ago (he was a WW2 RAF navigator)
You get get an approximate 'South' bearing by extending an imaginary line across the horns of a crescent Moon, downwards.
It RELIES on the fact that the Moon tilts in a regular, predictable way.
Actually we are North of the galactic plane heading down, very close now to dead center. Hmm interesting term that, now isn't it? Take a quick clue from Christian teachings, the cross is actually our crossing of the galactic plane. Jesus is the Sun/Son. He's always depicted with rays of the sun around his head.
And if you read a little closer, you'd see that it's our Earth with its iron core that makes us tilt. The moon has no such core, so then it appears to us that it IS tilted, because we in fact are at times.
It's really not much more complicated that bringing one magnetic object down and let it pass through another N/S strong EM field. When it hits that other like polarity on its way through, voila, you just might get it to turn upside down. At least you'll get some rock and roll in there.
Anonymous Coward 25480060
So much wrong, where to start. The Earth has NOT tilted any more than it always has. The north star is still where it is supposed to be as are all the others. If there were some anomalous tilt they would not be. The APPARENT tilt of the Moon is a trick of perspective. EVERYTHING in the sky appears to tilt throughout the night. The Moon APPEARS tilted to the left when it rises and you are looking East. Then it is upright when high in the sky and you are looking South and then appears tilted to the right when it sets and you are looking West. At no time did the Moon or the Earth actually tilt. YOU turned while looking at it. How do we know it is only an apparent tilt? Because at the same time you see it tilted to the right and setting, someone on the other side of the world sees it tilted to the left and rising. Both can't be true. neither are. At all times the North pole of the moon is still pointed north.
And you're wrong about the galactic plane.
Please verify you're human:

Teaching Tips | Science | Pedagogy |
Technical Details
Teaching Tips
- Game may miss an opportunity to relate the impact of personal energy use choices on global environmental (focus is on financial cost to player). This piece should be added by the educator.
About the Science
- Well-designed game that makes relative energy use of household appliances, heating/cooling systems, and transportation choices easy to compare so players can weigh the impact of their choices as they play the game.
- Neither sources for the numbers that are used are cited nor mathematical equations given for how relative energy use of systems, appliances, and vehicles was determined. Educator should be prepared to answer these questions from students and might need to find this information elsewhere.
About the Pedagogy
- Game is played in groups, allowing for group problem solving, strategizing, etc.
- Game structure provides for follow up discussions about energy choices.
- Great design design - very middle school oriented.
Technical Details/Ease of Use
- Ready to go.
- Game and all instructions and materials are downloadable in pdf form from site.
- Needs prep time to cut out cards.
Disciplinary Core Ideas
MS-ESS3.C2: Typically as human populations and per-capita consumption of natural resources increase, so do the negative impacts on Earth unless the activities and technologies involved are engineered otherwise.
MS-ESS3.D1: Human activities, such as the release of greenhouse gases from burning fossil fuels, are major factors in the current rise in Earth's mean surface temperature (global warming). Reducing the level of climate change and reducing human vulnerability to whatever climate changes do occur depend on the understanding of climate science, engineering capabilities, and other kinds of knowledge, such as understanding of human behavior and on applying that knowledge wisely in decisions and activities.
Science and Engineering Practices
MS-P2.1: Evaluate limitations of a model for a proposed object or tool.
MS-P6.5: Apply scientific reasoning to show why the data or evidence is adequate for the explanation or conclusion
MS-P8.2: Integrate qualitative and/or quantitative scientific and/or technical information in written text with that contained in media and visual displays to clarify claims and findings.
MS-P1.2: ask questions to identify and/or clarify evidence and/or the premise(s) of an argument.
Cross-Cutting Concepts
MS-C5.3: Energy may take different forms (e.g. energy in fields, thermal energy, energy of motion).
MS-C2.1: Relationships can be classified as causal or correlational, and correlation does not necessarily imply causation.

Magnolia Plantation Bed and Breakfast Inn is an 1885 French Second Empire Victorian home in Gainesville, Florida. Joe and Cindy Montalto purchased the 5400 square foot home in 1990 and began the restoration process. The house had its original floor plan when Joe and Cindy purchased it and they decided that it was very important to retain the integrity of the house as much as possible. All the woodwork inside the home is original. If you enjoy seeing the way people would have used their home in the 1800's you will enjoy visiting the Magnolia Plantation. It truly is a family affair. Joe's father, a Landscape Architect, designed the gardens, pond and waterfalls. Joe and Cindy and their Collie, Abbey also live on the third floor of the house so someone will always be around to see to your needs. You should find yourself feeling very much at home shortly after your arrival because of the attention to detail. There is a stocked refrigerator with complimentary beverages and snacks. There is even a "boo boo sick" drawer filled with the items you may find you have left at home or may need to go to the drug store for. "Sleeping in" or waking up "at the crack of dawn" work equally as well at the Inn. Breakfast is as casual as a cup of coffee (ready before 6 AM, its on a timer) or by showing your smiling face to Cindy you can enjoy a full breakfast in 15 minutes. Gainesville is less than half-hour drive to many antique shops and you can reach either coast in less that 1 hour.

Beautiful place, good value, good location, rooms/cottages for any need. Ponds, gazebos, secret and not so secret gardens. Wine, cheer, breakfast in bed! Fireplaces, jacuzzis, pianos, organs and CDs oh my! Garden fountains, Keurig coffee, caring owners and a beautiful collie. Would return without hesitation. Property and rooms could use just a few touches and some up keep.

This is our second stay in recent months as my husband is receiving outpatient treatment at Shands. I can't say enough about this wonderful place. It is secluded, even in the middle of town, serene, and absolutely charming. We've opted to rent one of the cottages- there are 8. Each is unique and immediately feels like home. The last trip we brought our dog- the inn is dog friendly. Joe and Cindy assigned us the Secret Garden, which has a large, enclosed courtyard. This is definitely an incredible inn and definitely worth a trip to Gainesville even if you are not a Gator fan!

The Magnolia Plantation Bed and Breakfast Inn in Gainesville, Florida is a quaint, historic lodging with all the modern luxuries. The sounds of plentiful fountains and the breeze rustling through the lushly shaded grounds are the perfect background for relaxing on a porch with a good book. For those needing more stimulation, a vibrant downtown and the University of Florida campus are both within walking distance. The breakfasts are delicious.

I have stayed here a couple of times for work. To be able to come back to a place with a full kitchen is such a pleasure! Cindy and all the staff are very accommodating and friendly. I really liked sitting outside or on the porch in the quiet.

We stayed for the 2nd time in the Secret Garden cottage during our weekend visit to see our son at UF. It was so relaxing, especially hanging out in our own private garden outside our cottage. Magnolia Plantation is truly an oasis, and always our choice in Gainesville!

Mangolia Plantation made a highly stressful situation into a mini vacation for me and my dogs. I had a extremely ill dog and the University Vet School told me Friday afternoon that if I could be there Monday morning they could possibly help Ceili. My problem I live over 6 hours away and I have two other dogs, one a rescue recovering from hip surgery. Cindy took it in stride and without missing a beat took us all in. With welcoming paws she, Joe, the staff and their dog Abby had us set up and moved into a wonderful cottage. They accommodated us and made my time worry free. The vet school saved my dog and Mangolia Plantation saved me. Thank you.

If you are looking for the perfect B & B it doesn't get any better than this. The accommodations are unbelievable. We have stayed there twice within the last six months and we are looking forward to many more times. The rooms are immaculate and the service is everything you would expect, and more. Don't miss an opportunity to stay at the Magnolia Plantation. George, Cindy & Jake

We spent 4 nights in the Carriage House, and frankly, I was quite disappointed. The web site advertised a B&B, but when I called to reserve the room, I was told there would be no breakfast or wine and cheese in the evening. As a result, the price was somewhat lower than normal. In fact, there was no food or service at all during our stay. The room was quaint with all antique furnishings, but not very functional. The bath/shower arrangement was quite inconvenient...a huge whirlpool-type tub that was hard to climb into with a shower head coming out of the wall that was difficult to get under if you are over 5' 8" tall. There was no curtain so water splashed all over the bathroom. The fireplaces were nice, and the bed was very comfortable. The grounds were attractive, but not well maintained. I felt the place needed some TLC. The reviews had led us to expect better than we feel we got.

Cover Your EyepieceDPMag Published in Blog
This could be the reason your photos are coming out dark: light is entering the camera from the back. Precisely, it's entering through the viewfinder and messing with the camera's ability to accurately read TTL light levels. Ever notice that little viewfinder cover that's probably attached to your camera strap? I didn't think so. Well Peter West Carey at Digital Photography School did notice it, and he's put it to good use to help prevent erroneous light from affecting his photos. You don't have to use this little device to eliminate light from the viewfinder, you can also use your hand, or your eye, or just about anything else to block light from leaking in while the camera is calculating exposures. Read all about how and why this works at Peter's great DPS blog post.

That's how the world is now mate, you have to deal with smug ********** who think people care about their opinions and wait until the right moment to say something so they look intelligent, when in reality, they don't actually know anything. It's like listening to any moron on a political debate who says something along the lines of "well thats how that is now, and now the world is going towards a totalitarian society." They don't actually know what it means, they just say some stupid ignorant thing rather than just keeping their ******* mouths shut in the first place.
