The service was very good and met my needs to a "T".
A little crowded but it was a city drop off point ( staff very prompt and friendly to us). I would give them my business next time.
dont know about site as I only dropped truck off and left keys in the door slot.
I reserved a U-Haul pickup truck at the West Seattle location for a specific time for something I needed to haul on a time crunch. When I went there I was told we don't have a truck available. They also didn't have anything else I could upgrade to other than a 20' truck which I didn't want. I was then told to go to the Burien location, which thankfully had the truck I need but this whole ordeal seriously set me back. Completely unacceptable to send customers on a wild goose chase like this!
Brakes on the truck were a bit spoungy. Had to physically stand on them to get truck to stop if going down a small hill.
I would like to thank the local management team for going the extra mile to insure my rental experience was a positive thing.
Didn't like the way the manager talked to his employee. He was rather surly to me as well
You guys were great. I use uhaul all the time and use this location when ever possible.
The girl that waited on us was extremely friendly and new her job well.
Fast, friendly and courteous!
I trust Penske more, they are more willing to change rates or adjust them to match competitors. I will be needing a truck multiple times this weekend and I will definitely be going with Penske.
Laura was just the BEST CSR I have EVER experienceed with U-Haul!! She's a pretty GREAT daughter too!
Dropped off truck after hours.
Horrible experience... I reserved 12 x 6 trailer at West Seattle location and showed up to find the trailer on hand was out of commission! It took the woman a long time to locate another trailer and it was 15 miles out of my way making me late for everything that day and evening! She hardly apologized and they didn't offer me any discounts!!
Very good experience. From my phone reservation, to pick-up, and then drop-off, the best experience I've had with Uhaul ever.
Hello, just felt the need to share this with upper management . As I walked in to the burien loctions I was greeted by a very nice smile and a " how can I help you"? I told the girl I needed to rent a tow dolly . One of the other workers ( later I found out this guy was the manger ) chimmed in and was quick to shut me down . He said " we don't have any of those and there is none in the area . As I was turning to leave the girl that first greeted me ( with out the other guy seeing ) waved me to her desk . She told me she found 5 tow Dolly's with in ten miles away . I was sure glad these girl ( Laura ) had awesome customer service . My disabled mom couldn't get her car to start . And she was in Everett 80 + miles from home . I didn't really have extra time to head to anouther loction . The weather was warming up fast and I new my mom had no shad or AC . I changed my mind and ended up renting a car trailer . As Laura was getting all the papers ready he ( the manager ) kept talking to her like she was stupid and didn't know how to do her job . His tone and demeanor was uncalled for , even tho he was talking down to her and acting very nagitive Laura keep smiling and proceeded to ignore his ignorance . Really all I wanted was for him to go away so we could move foreword . The manager left got in his car and drove off . Laura and I were out side hooking up and the control freak went out of his way and came back and pulled up to us and asked her if she ok . He said " you got it " in a tone of voice that was uncalled for especially in front of a customer . I felt bed for her , he ovbiously had an issue with a women doing the same job he does , this was very clear to see right as I originally walked in . I'm the owner of Avanced harwood flooring, I've had lots if helper . It's completely wrong for an employee to have to deal with this kind of behavior . If one of my guys had to go behind my back to please a costumer and make sure they got the best service possible I would be out of business . Laura did an awesome job even with her boss acting like an ass right to her in front of a me . I would guess and say all the employees at the burien loction if asked in private , what do you think of there maneger ? Would have nothing good to say . Thanks for taking the time to read this . Rusty Lingle 206-793-4587
This is my second horrible experience with U-haul and my last. It seems you have the practice of baiting and switching customers and adding charges to bills after the fact, when you've told customers they've paid in full and closed out a contract. I will pay charges you claim are due because I don't like being bullied an threatened with collections but also know I'm filing a complaint with the BBB and the FTC about your inequitable business practices. While this may not seem important to you, perhaps the field of public opinion will. I'll also be using my social and business connections to ensure everyone in my network is aware of your deceitful practices.
service was good, fast ,curtious..
The new manager here was great. Very upbeat and professional. But the other employee who got my trailer was obviously not happy about his job. When I pulled in, he was smoking by the entrance and greeted me with an unenthusiastic "what do you need man?" upon returning the trailer he was again smoking by the door, and while checking the trailer in called his mobile unit he used an "*ucking piece of junk!" Really, how hard is it to be professional and courteous. This is the second time I've encountered crappy employees here. But the new manager, at least I'd assume he is the manager, is a good addition.
We moved on May 30, and our first stop was at UHaul Renton, where the girl who was helping us book a vehicle was super unhelpful and it felt like she didn't even know what she was doing. She made us reserve a truck online and made us think we would be able to have it that day at a certain location however when we started driving to the location, no one contacted us to confirm our reservation like she said they would. So I called the number that was in my confirmation email, and the man on the phone was very unhelpful also. He kept saying he didn't see my reservation in his system but I did have a confirmation email with my reservation. Then he kept saying he is having a cancellation of a truck but would not tell me which truck it was and he kept saying that I should reserve it. But how can I reserve a truck that is going to be cancelled when I don't even know the truck details. I ended up calling 1 800 number and finally the lady on the phone was able to reserve a vehicle for us. But we ended up driving back from where we started to get that car. So basically we wasted over 2 hours because of UHaul. I will never rent a truck from this company again.. What a terrible experience!
Keep doing what their doing.
nothing ...customer service excellent...lost garage door opener in truck...went back they found it for me
Great staff
Thank you
It was quick in and out. Everything worked well. Couldn't ask for more.
Prompt, friendly service. Equipment was clean. Will use again.

Krossfire PaintballRead MoreFor more than 14 years, paint-splattered players have duked it out on the varied terrain of Krossfire Paintball's well-kept outdoor fields. Under the watchful eye of fair-minded referees, participants duck for cover and take aim from behind blue inflatables, stacks of barrels, large wooden spools, and a fort surrounded by fencing. Over in the woods, meanwhile, players huddle in bunkers, plan ambushes from behind standing and downed trees, and crawl through overgrown grasses while avoiding opponents camouflaged as overgrown grasses. After private weekday or open weekend games, guests can update their gear by browsing the latest equipment in Krossfire Paintball's pro-shop, which stocks guns, loaders, goggles, and protective pads.10780 Elmendort Lavernia Rd.San Antonio, TX US
Paintball FixxRead MorePaintball Fixx's three outdoor fields sport a variety of bunkers and barricades that enhance any game of speedball or rec ball. Red and blue inflatable bunkers sprout up all over the air ball field, whose tight confines encourage a fast-paced game. The rec ball field, on the other hand, provides players with a little more breathing room as they stalk through tall grasses, crouch behind stacked tires, or take to the trenches found along the field's eastern edge. The Alamo field features its very own fort on the west end, though its narrower width still tends to make games move pretty quickly.4090 Farm to Market 1694Robstown, TX US
Paintball InternationalRead MoreAs a conglomerate of paintball facilities, Paintball International is a one-stop shop for weekend warriors seeking some chromatic outdoor combat. Partnering with fields across the country, the company helps players live out their battlefield fantasies, whether they're sneaking up on an enemy installation, executing tactic strategies, or painting Water Lilies on the chest of a charging opponent. All parks are individually owned and operated.4090 FM 1694Robstown, TX US
Play Extreme SportsRead MoreThe staff at Play Extreme Sports builds on classic combat games such as laser tag and paintball with modern twists that provide fun and active entertainment for kids and adults. An airsoft field facilitates games similar to paintball that substitute paint pellets for BBs, and food-grade cornstarch is the weapon of choice in color throws. Players aim at the undead during seasonal zombie paintball hunts, and at-home parties get a boost of mess-free fun with a mobile paintball booth.2110 State HWY 286Corpus Christi, TX US
SideTour - LeisureRead MoreSound Excursions describes their carefully curated group experiences as "field trips for adults." It's easy to see why: every outing takes groups to a new realm of Washington, whether it's the frothy shores of Puget Sound, inland forests and mountains, or tables at Seattle's thriving restaurants. The events held at these diverse locations range from culinary workshops on topics such as sushi-making and moonshine-tasting, to adventurous excursions with whitewater rafting or kayaking, to laid-back themed party cruises. For many outings, luxury transportation is provided.651 Devine RoadSan Antonio, TX US
Paintball KnightsRead MoreOn Paintball Knights' nine pristine grassy play fields, combatants take cover behind inflatable obstacles and large tin drums while waging good-natured warfare against the opposing team. A referee for every 10 participants keeps things civil and fun by promising to foil cheaters and inaccurate Braveheart reenactments. Between matches, players can hatch master plans in the 50-table gravel staging area or refuel at the snack bar. The staff supplies biodegradable, easy-break paintballs that leave minimal stains and bruises, as well as complimentary lens cleaner and paper towels to scrub away colorful specks from skin, clothing, and monocles.13289 La Vernia Rd St.Saint Hedwig, TX US

Clover Hill (Culpeper, Virginia)
Clover Hill is a decaying 18th-century plantation house near Culpeper in Culpeper County, Virginia.[1] Clover Hill is best known for serving as the headquarters for Brigadier General George Armstrong Custer during the American Civil War.[1][2] Clover Hill was home to James Barbour (26 February 1828–29 October 1895), a prominent American lawyer, planter, delegate from Virginia to the 1860 Democratic National Convention, delegate to the 1861 Virginia secession convention, and a major in the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War.[3][4]
The house as it appeared in June 1986 [1]
The house at Clover Hill was constructed in 1775.[1]
During the American Civil War, Clover Hill was used by Brigadier General George Armstrong Custer as his headquarters.[1][2] Custer and his new bride Elizabeth "Libbie" Bacon honeymooned at Clover Hill during the Winter of 1864.[1][2] Custer named his encampment "Camp Libbie" in his bride's honor.[2]
Clover Hill exhibits a steeply pitched gabled roof with false dormers and arched windows.[1] Clover Hill is clad in a tongue and groove siding.[1] The home's architect is unknown.[1]
Current Status[edit]
The house has fallen into serious disrepair due to the owner's neglect. A picture from 2012 can be viewed here: [2]
According to the Culpeper County GIS, the property has been owned by the S.W. Rodgers (S.W. Rodgers Construction) family of Warrenton, VA for several decades. Sadly this historic home has been allowed to fall into serious disrepair. In spite of the efforts of preservationist groups to purchase this home and restore it on multiple occasions, the Rodgers Family demonstrated their lack of patriotism and concern for historic preservation. They rebuffed the preservationists stating they would neither sell nor restore this historic property even though they are extremely wealthy. They are content to let this structure fall into the ground and history be damned. Furthermore, they accelerated the decay of the structure by gutting and removing architectural details and interior components and windows with a chain saw.

How's your week treating you, precious friend? No matter your answer, it's bound to get a lot better with Weekday Escape on the job! After all, there are few situations in life that aren't improved by being trapped somewhere and forced to solve a series of strange puzzles before you can escape... that's what makes the Saw franchise so uplifting! This week, we take a look back with two older titles, including a stage show gone wrong by Just Pine Games (now Pine Studio), and a loft apartment overflowing with gems by TeraLumina, and then cap it off with some refreshing summer treats from Funkyland!

Need a puzzle? Trick question! When do you ever not need one, especially when it's a deceptively simple logic puzzle with an appealingly minimalist presentation? GooDMage delivers the goods (heh, heh) with Logical Element, where all you need to do to win is turn all red outputs to green by delivering current to them. Easy, right? All you have to do is click on switches to turn them on and off. Very quickly, however, the game introduces you to things like gates that invert incoming energy, thus turning green to red, and vice versa. Then you have diodes, which only allow energy to pass in one direction, and... well, suffice to say it's a little more complex than first blush would lead you to believe. As it adds in more gates with special rules, Logical Element gets a little harder... but only a little, since after all we're talking about a game that can be won by randomly flipping switches with no repercussions. Still, it's a nice idea, and once you've finished twelve levels, the sandbox is unlocked for you to make your own logic circuits, and besides... who doesn't want to solve puzzles while bopping along to that cute little soundtrack?
In Farway Studio's visual novel adventure series Cafe Rouge (chapters Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, and Seven also available!), sixteen year old Isis Black is your average teenage girl (apart from a unique case of hypoglycemia...) who gets a job at a cafe that just happens to be run by and cater to vampires, which is a problem we've all dealt with at least once. (Remember kids... when you get interviewed for a job, ask about benefits, duties, and whether your employer is a creature of the night.) Click to advance the text and make choices as they appear, but be wary... not every outcome is ideal. To protect the secret of the cafe, Isis is taken on as an employee permanently, . Please use the password at the end of each chapter to unlock the next. Note that as the original website is no longer available, "Play Next Chapter" as linked inside the game will no longer work. Use the links below the game window to play the other installments, or come back here! There is no save, so you must finish each chapter in a single sitting and keep track of your passwords manually. While the series lacks polish when it comes to typos and a clunky interface and navigation system, some stylish animation and an intriguing tale full of interesting characters makes it worth playing through for any fan of love bites.
This game was submitted by SmartCookie17, who says, "A creative and immersive game with a lot of skill, Cafe Rouge lived up to my expectations and beyond. Isis is easy to identify with and the evocative music really sets the mood for each scene. There are 3 possible love interests, with a good ending and a bad ending for each one... but even those who don't enjoy romance can still find themselves enjoying this brilliant game. The astonishing performance of the game easily overshadows the few bugs there are. The controls are easy and the graphics beautiful. I give this game 5 shrooms and more!!!"

Eyezmaze's beloved Grow puzzle games are back with GROW PARK, currently only available for Android but coming soon to iOS and your browser, and for free! Eyezmaze fans will know the formula by now... at the bottom of the screen represent various objects, creatures, or elements that can be added to the world, and the order in which you tap them influences how they grow and change their environment. Used items will change and "level up" as you use others, but not all of them level up as many times, so the task is to figure out what order to activate each item in, in order to make them all reach their maximum level. Add to that 150 characters to unlock, who will appear and frolic in your newly grown fields under certain conditions, and you have an adorable puzzle game that fires the imagination of young and old alike and encourages experimentation beyond getting the "perfect" maximum level solution. We had originally planned to wait for GROW PARK to become available on more platforms before we featured it, but, well, there's a reason why On's work is so well-regarded, and people have been poking us about it already. So those of you with Android devices, get to GROWing, and the rest of you, well, like you needed an excuse to replay Eyezmaze's back catalogue anyway!
Thanks to Jordan, Debbie, Gray, and Jonathan for sending this one in!
An endless parade of freshly delivered sushi ferried straight to our lazy laps? Yes please! In no1game's Find the Escape-Men Part 158: Sushi Go Round 2, you've decided to check out the new sushi joint in town, because somehow despite there being 158 of these little escape games, and even being the second time this scenario has happened, you're still surprised when you find yourself trapped somewhere and unable to leave without finding the ten green men hidden throughout the area. But, well, I guess I understand... there's a lot I'm willing to do for a spicy salmon roll. As usual, there's no changing cursor, so you should click everywhere, on everything, and sometimes more than once (or after some time has passed!) in order to find what you need. Sushi Go Round 2 manages to be surprisingly sneaky for working within a limited amount of space, but it may also make you a little hungry, so hurry up and finish so we can go get some tuna nagiri... your treat!
[The following is a reader review by Michael, used with permission. Want to submit your own review for a game we haven't covered? Use our submission form!]
TIS-100 is an indie puzzle game from Zachtronics, the developer of Infinifactory, Ironclad Tactics and SpaceChem. You're given a literal manual for the titular computer, a "massively parallel computer architecture comprised of non-uniformly interconnected heterogeneous nodes", and tasked with using the information gleaned from that manual to not only properly code and complete puzzles as efficiently as possible, all under a very serious guise of realism, but also potentially discovering who really built the machine, and why. Anyone who played SpaceChem will notice similarities between that game and this latest effort, as they follow the same spirit of game design. If you enjoyed SpaceChem for its brain-bendingly difficult puzzles built on abstract thinking and planning, it's likely (with one caveat) that you'll appreciate TIS-100 for the same reasons. Both games center on analyzing a problem, conceptualizing and constructing a system to transform some given inputs into a desired output, then pressing "run" and standing back to watch your system either fulfill your desires perfectly or go completely awry. Sometimes it takes several complete restarts to find the solution, but the feeling of accomplishment when you finally achieve that output can be extremely rewarding. The player must program each node individually so that they cooperate to do tasks like multiply numbers or detect maximums within a sequence. The game manual is completely in-character: a PDF of a well-used copy of the strange computer's printed instruction manual, which offers very little hand-holding for the uninitiated, instead getting right down to business describing operating parameters and detailing the game's instruction set.
When we last saw Emily, she had just said goodbye to her old restaurant and moved into a new home with her husband and daughter. Now it's time to settle into the neighbourhood and fix up the house while still trying to keep her business afloat. Emily is nothing if not a superb multitasker, but this might prove to be her greatest challenge to date. Join her in Delicious: Emily's Home Sweet Home, the latest episode in the highly successful time-management Delicious series by GameHouse, as she deals with six restaurants, a dilapidated home, and one particularly nasty neighbour.
There's nothing like a sultry summer night. The night air, just cool enough to be refreshing while still being warm enough to fall asleep in. The brilliant glow of the moon and stars. The gentle buzz of nighttime insects, using their superhuman (super-insectoid?) strength to carry giant boxes and colorful lanterns. Nightflies 2 is the sequel to Qribo's original 2012 puzzle game Nightflies, and just like it's predecessor, it's a super-chill ode to summer in physics-filled form. Your goal is to help the groovy, glowy nightflies carry the multicolored lanterns to the top of the screen. Just click on a lantern to send the bugs swarming towards it, and as long as three of the four flies make it to the bulb, they'll whisk it away. And if there's anything in their path? Click on the boxes, wheels, and other doodads to summon rope-bearing ladybugs to whisk the objects away! You can click and hold to aim the ladybugs and choose what direction they take off in, so make sure they steer clear and don't accidentally knock a lantern into a pit! That's all there is to it, but Nightflies 2 whips a lot of clever puzzles out of its simple foundations.
Another week, another Friday. Did you celebrate Canada day this past Wednesday like I did, patriotically eating poutine while the national anthem plays? (Not kidding.) Will you be celebrating the Fourth of July on Saturday like I will, glaring resentfully outside at the sweltering sun and warring with your desire for fireworks and hotdogs versus air conditioning? (Also not kidding.) Whatever the case, friend, and even if you're celebrating nothing at all, let's celebrate this Friday with some free games! This week... a creepy interactive animation about judging the wrong sorts of people, an incremental game of robots and more that may make your finger fall off, a turn-based game where shoving is the solution, and a single-screen adventure where a fish is out to save his little world.
To win at Popcap's popular free-to-play tower defense game for iOS and Android Plants vs Zombies 2 you need to use your braaaaaaaains, but even the wiliest gardener might find themselves between a rock and a hard place with so many levels. Want to bury the zombie horde without spending a cent of real money? We're here to help you with our strategy guide, provided by Stan, that will give you tips and tricks to get through each level! Hit on below for our best strategies, or share your own with other players in the comments!

In tinyBuild's deceptively adorable indie puzzle game Divide by Sheep, for iPad and iPhone (with Android on the way!) as well as PC and Mac, things get dangerous when Death gets lonely. A kraken for a best friend is great, sure, but you know what? There are a lot of animals on Earth, and surely nobody would miss a few dozen of those to bring some comfort to the Grim Reaper, right? Unless you're the sheep, pigs, and wolves our skeleton friend wants to cuddle up with. Now thanks to death, the happy grasslands our woolly friends frolic in are flooding, and the incoming life rafts can only save so many! In each level, several rafts will show up, each with a specific weight limit... too many sheep and it'll sink! The problem is the sheep are all stranded on tiny islands in random groups, so you have to figure out how to combine them to get the maximum number of sheep per raft to save, or, well, how to sacrifice the ones you don't need for the greater good. Tap on an island and drag towards an adjacent land mass to move all sheep on it to where you've indicated. Each sheep needs a tile to stand on, and if there isn't one for it, well, it's into the water it goes. You need to figure out how to make best use of the available land to fill all three life rafts to maximum capacity... easier said than done, especially when hungry wolves, barbed wire, lasers, and more begin to be added to the mix! What can we say, Death is really lonely, and with 120 levels to solve across four worlds, he's also pretty persistent. And what do you think will happen when the other animals want to get out of the way of the rising water too? Or when Death gets tired of waiting?
Pixelulsar's retro puzzle platformer Ribbitation might not have even heard of bells and whistles, but it doesn't really need them to provide a tidy little experience either. Using [WASD] or the [arrow] keys to move, you play a frog that can't jump, which makes reaching the flag at the end of each level full of girders and ladders a little more complicated. You (and objects you push) can also only fall straight down, so you need to figure out how to climb, fall, and shove crates to get where you want to go. Complicated? Not really, though it does introduce a few new obstacles as you go, such as locks and keys, and hazardous spikes, but Ribbitation doesn't need to pad itself with a lot of extra content to make an enjoyable little puzzle. And we do mean "little", since the game is only a dozen levels long, but while it lasts, Ribbitation is a solid retro title that's great for kicking your brain into gear.
Chris Nordgren's Last Invader is an arena shooter about a topic that's near and dear to everyone's hearts... the inevitable robotic uprising. As a sort of single-gun weilding AT-AT, you stand alone against waves of enemy robots, with only a rockin' soundtrack and a ton of heavy weaponry on your side. Using [WASD] or the [arrow] keys to move, swapping between your two weapons with [Q], with the [spacebar] to give a short, speedy leap out of harm's way, and the mouse to aim and shoot, you'll mow down increasingly aggressive and bigger foes, automatically earning scrap that's added to your score with each KO. Between waves, that scrap is used both to repair your 'bot, and increase the power of the various weapons you can swap out by picking them up when they're dropped by blasted enemies. Get an egg bomb? Deploy it with [F] for a huge area attack, but they're not that common, so save them for sticky situations! While its gameplay may be straightforward, Last Invader offers a few twists, like waves that force you to use a specific weapon, and provides frantic top-down action that'll keep you in tip-top shape for when the metallic overlords arrive to take your skin.
Everyone's favourite simpering simians are back, along with their massive brood of mini-monkeys, in PencilKids' point-and-click puzzler Monkey GO Happy Ninjas 3, where, as you might surmise, the only way to make our Monkey GO Happy is to find the seventy tiny ninjas hidden throughout the game. Lest you think this sounds like an impossible task, it helps to know that these ninjas aren't exactly good at the stealthy bits of ninja-ry, and so not only is every scene you can visit absolutely heaving with them, but your cursor will change when it passes over something you can interact with (like, say, a ninja hiding behind something), so you know what to click on. As usual, standing in your way of covering yourself in dozens of tiny monkeys (what else are you going to use them for?) are puzzles. Some of them simply require using the right item in the right place, while others have clues to their solutions hidden in the scenery throughout the game. By now, Pencil Kids has the art of monkey gathering down to a fine science, and Monkey GO Happy Ninjas 3 is surprisingly robust compared to more recent entries into the series, with more locations, puzzles, and gameplay. So what are you waiting for? Get huntin'!
I keep telling myself that one day, I'm going to make an escape game of my own for you guys to show you how much I love you. And it's going to have amazing puzzles. And augmented reality. And a unique soundtrack. And consultation by Idris Elba, because Idris Elba. And then I remember that I wore my Cthulhu slippers to get the mail today because my sandals were on the other side of the room and thus "too far" away, and I figure that sort of motivation is a long way off. But on this edition of Weekday Escape, you've got some feline freedom to attend to from Vitamin Hana, the world's most complex cobbler's house from MayMay, and a makeup routine from Funkyland that would probably be a lot simpler if you stopped hiding things all over the place and just invested in a makeup bag like the rest of us. So it's all good!
Good fortune (and fun!) will come to those who dig through the archives.

Architecture of Villa Rufolo
Favorite thing: The architecture is characterized by the Entrance Tower with the straw-yellow surface, probably obtained from the powdered ceramic glazes; the Moorish cloister with small columns supporting pointed arches; the Main tower; the 18th century Garden; the Well; the Turkish bath with Balnea and Theatre; the Dining rooms and Chapel that today hosts art exhibitions and events.
Fondest memory: If you're in any way interested in architecture you won't fail to notice the different influences throughout the villa. I found it intriguing to see how they'd preserved things such as the Moorish arch (see pic 5) and the turkish bath whose roof attracted me.
- Architecture
- Historical Travel
- Castles and Palaces
Villa Rufolo gardens
Favorite thing: There are times when touring that you arrive at places and, perhaps because you've seen the image a hundred times before, the gloss is taken off.
Villa Rufolo is not one of those places! No matter how many times you see images it does not fail to enchant.
The first time I visited the dreaded Eurohaze (as we photographers call it) hung about the coast but the next time it was a near perfect day and we felt blessed to be in such a spot on such a day.
Fondest memory: I hope the pictures reflect that sentiment. The flowers in bloom making tracks between historic buildings is something I find enchanting and I'm sure many others feel exactly the same way.
- Castles and Palaces
- Photography
- Family Travel
Villa Rufolo
Favorite thing: Villa Rufolo takes its name from an ancient family of Ravello, rich and powerful in the times of the Maritime Republic of Amalfi.
The villa suffered through carelessness and degradation until 1851 when the Scottish Francis Neville Reid bought it and brought it and revived its ancient splendor.
In 1880 Wagner, who stayed in the Villa for some time, remained astonished by the extraordinary glamour of the place and it was here he found the inspiration to compose the second act of the "Parsifal". From that time, the Villa continued to attract visitors and artists and personages as Jacqueline Kennedy and Hillary Clinton.
Fondest memory: The gardens of the villa set the scenery for the Ravello Festival. Performances of classic music and ballets of the highest level take place at night, with the orchestra playing on a stage hanging between the sky and the sea.
- Architecture
- Castles and Palaces
- Historical Travel
View of Scala
Favorite thing: Scala is a nice small village located in the mountain in front of Ravello. The most important monument of the village is the Duomo (cathedral) which was built in the 11th century. It has got a romanesque shape and in its interior you can see fantastic sculptures like Il Crocifisso, La Vergine and San Giovanni (the Crucifixion, the Virgin and St.John) made in 1260.
- Historical Travel
- Architecture
Via Wagner
Favorite thing: There's no escaping the impact of Wagner on Ravello - the street leading up from the main square is named after the composer who concertos are played in the Villa Rufolo during the summer months. Such a pretty street too, typical of Ravello with its steps and colourful blooms.
Belvedere View
Favorite thing: The Belvedere della Principessa di Piemonte, has a stunning view - in clear weather - of the whole gulf of Salerno.
Truly a lovely spot with the gardens in the forefront - an ideal place to rest your legs a while whilst admiring the view.
Reaching Ravello
Favorite thing: We reached Ravello by walking down the road from Scala and then up the stepped path to Ravello - a walk of no more than 30 minutes. The entrance to the town is by the church of S.Maria a Gradillo with its 3 naved aisle - see must see section.
Alternatively you can enter through the road tunnel (using the pathway at the side) and admire the view of the Gulf of Salerno as you exit. Turn right and then enter another short tunnel and you will be in the main square of Ravello.
- Luxury Travel
- Arts and Culture
Duomo of Ravello
Favorite thing: The Duomo - the Cathedral of S. Pantaleone was a favourite church we visited in Ravello. It was erected in 1087 A.D., by the Noble family Rufolo. It can be found in the Piazza Vescovado - you can't mis it.
Check out the must see section for more info of the interior of the duomo and what can be seen.
Villa Cimbrone
Favorite thing: The gardens of the Villa Cimbrone built in the twentieth century and commissioned by the English nobleman William Bechettare are dotted with statues, grottoes and temples. In the cloister, just on the left of the entrance, there is a bas-relief reproducing the seven deadly sins. The glorious view from its terrace has been coined the "Terrace of Infinity".
Villa Cimbrone: reachable from the town centre in 15 minutes' walk; the rooms have been built at the beginning of the century in neogothic style. visit time: from 9 am to sunset.
Villa Rufolo
Favorite thing: In Ravello the Moorish Villa Rufolo is the most famous monument and has glorious semi-tropical gardens. Built approximately in 1280 by one of the richest and most important families in Ravello. It inspired Wagner to imagine Klingsor's magical garden in Parsifal. (This is authentic: Wagner wrote it in the guest book in the Villa Rufolo.)
Villa Rufolo: visit time:
June - Sept. 9.30 am 1 pm and 3 pm - 7 pm; Oct. -May 9.30 am - 1 pm and 3 pm - 5 pm
Piazza Vescovado
Favorite thing: The splendid Piazza Vescovado with tall, whispering Pines is the main square in Ravello. A relaxing place to sit and have a drink and view the imposing Cathedral of S. Pantaleone with its beautiful bell-tower which dominates the piazza. See must see section for more info of the cathedral.
View of Scala from Ravello
Fondest memory: Just as Scala has a great view across to Ravello the same is true of Ravello - it has great views of Scala! From Piazza Vescovado is the best view to Scala - as this was where we were staying, it was a memorable view.
Favorite thing: A winding road from Amalfi ascends seven kilometres up the "Dragon's Valley" to the hill town of Ravello. It is located on the small escarpment of Monte Lattari and overlooks the coast south towards the Gulf of Salerno, and the town of Amalfi directly below.
Fondest memory: The wonderful sunny climate! Boccaccio, D. H. Lawrence and Wagner are among the "greats" who succumbed to the spell of Ravello. Wagner partly composed his opera "Parsifal" here, and today author Gore Vidal lives and derives inspiration from this charming town.
- Spa and Resort
The town square
Fondest memory: With postcard stands and street vendors in the piazza, this is as touristy as Ravello gets. This town is very small and can be visited as a mini side trip from Amalfi. We strolled around the town, saw the incredible views of the Mediterranean, bought an incredible ceramic plate, had lunch and still had time to visit the town of Amalfi below, before heading back to Sorrento.
- Family Travel
Gulf of Salerno View
Favorite thing: Well a few days later the weather was much clearer, less hazy, so chance for a better picture of the Gulf of Salerno from the Belvedere della Principessa di Piemonte.

Treva Brandon Scharf: Confident people don't bash themselves; they don't let negative thinking and self-loathing screw up a good workout or undermine their progress.

I have been blessed with wonderful family and friends, good health, and the capacity to reach out to others. It is important to me that my partner have a strong sense of family and community. Enough with the sweet stuff! I definitely have a sassy side too...and road rage is my downfall.

I live in the Denver-Boulder area, awarded the "thinnest" city in this country. But when I see all the runners, bikers and elliptical trainers huffing, puffing and blowing the house down, I often wonder, "Are they really healthy? Sure, they may be able to run a marathon… but are they healthy? Are their joints stable? Are their muscles soft and pliable? Are they able to fight off a cold or flu?
These are all good questions. Most people pick one kind of exercise and get into it (or just "get it over with") without asking if it's creating a healthy, balanced body for the long haul. Is this you? If you find yourself gritting your teeth, dreading your workout or feeling exhausted during or after, your exercise program may be unbalanced and causing more damage than good.
Sign up for Alison's Natural Health and Cooking eLetter! Support your healthy lifestyle with delicious recipes and researched articles on the latest nutrition topics! Sign up … It's good for you!
From a mindful perspective, there are five core principles that I and other health practitioners consider a well-rounded workout:
1. Strength. This includes peripheral strength of the limbs, and core strength. Fitness guru Paul Chek says that without core strength (musculature of the deep abdomen) body posture and alignment diminishes and lower back issues come into play. Chek recommends 2-3 strength-training sessions per week and to rotate exercises to keep the body guessing. Consider yoga, pilates and "functional fitness" – all are excellent resources for core and peripheral strength.
2. Flexibility. All beefed up but you can't even touch your toes? Muscles might be well-defined, but without pliability, the body loses its fluid range of motion. Tissues harden as muscles become less and less hydrated. Stretching before and after a workout is good, but deep hydration and full range of motion (in all directions) comes from a daily regimen: yoga takes the lead in this category.
3.Detoxification/De-Stressing. Most body-mind-based exercise programs actually help detoxify the internal organs during and after a workout. This keeps stress from building up and promotes the ability to ward off illness before getting it. According to the the late Zen Shiatsu master Shizuto Masunaga, "one cannot be considered healthy unless one's whole body, including the internal organs and nervous system, is functioning in a supple manner". Yoga, chi gung, tai chi or any martial art are good choices for exercise detox and releasing stress.
4.Cardio. This is important, but Americans seem to have taken the "cardio workout" to an extreme, to the point where "cardio" and "workout" could almost mean the same thing. According to Ayurvedic physician Dr. John Douillard in his book Body, Mind Sport, too much huffing and puffing could actually be causing undue stress. Without deep breathing into the lower lobes of the lungs while exercising, the body may go into a stress response, ironically storing fat – the exact opposite of what we want to do.
5. Balance. Yogic balancing postures are played up just as much as any of the others, and are often the most difficult postures for westerners, mainly due to our over-emphasis of peripheral strength versus core strength. Balancing postures develop coordination and also "exercise" the right and left hemispheres of the brain. Balance and coordination are highly emphasized in yoga, dance and pilates.
Exercise doesn't (and shouldn't) have to be a chore. Although resistance is natural on some days, the right routine for you should be one you look forward to and that makes you feel rejuvenated, rather than depleted. It's something that you like to do.
The best, most inspiring workouts are those in which tools learned can be applied in daily life: an improvement of posture while walking or standing in line at the check out; a kindling of patience when dealing with others; determination and diligence with work or life's challenges; balanced development of both excellence and humility; and acceptance of who you are right now, knowing that you are perfect just as you are.

I have a heart for God and his meaning and purpose!

List of World War II flying aces
This is a list of World War II flying aces. Fighter aces in World War II had tremendously varying kill scores, affected as they were by many factors: the pilot's skill level, the performance of the airplane he flew and those he flew against, how long he served, his opportunity to meet the enemy in the air (Allied to Axis disproportion), and the standards his air service brought to the awarding of victory credits.
Towards the end of the war, the Axis Powers had largely exhausted their supply of skilled pilots and the replacements did not have as much opportunity to gain enough experience to be successful.
Additionally, national policies differed; German and Japanese[1] pilots tended to return to the cockpit over and over again until they were killed,[N 1] while very successful Allied pilots were routinely rotated back to training bases to educate cadet flyers. It is not clear what impact each individual nation's rules for score crediting have on the counts listed below, although the impact is likely to be significant. Germans credited a shared victory to only one pilot, while the French credited full victory to all participants. British, Finnish and US air forces credited fractional shares of aerial victories, resulting in fractions, such as 11½, which might be for example 10 aircraft and three shares with the second pilot. Some U.S. commands also credited
Flying aces[edit]
Ilmari Juutilainen, the highest scoring non-German Ace
Hiroyoshi Nishizawa, the highest scoring Japanese Ace
Ivan Kozhedub, top Allied and Soviet Ace of WWII
Mato Dukovac, highest scoring Croatian Ace
Richard Bong, highest scoring US ace

Picture: Ben Affleck; Seraphina Affleck Ben Affleck and his daughter visit a farmers market in Brentwood Featuring: Ben Affleck, Seraphina Affleck Where: Los Angeles, California, United...
Ben Affleck may be playing down rumors that he's planning to run for senate but that hasn't stopped the gossip. The Argo director was recently in Washington to discuss the issues of violence plaguing Congo and when asked about his political ambitions, told the Politico blog "That's not what I'm here to talk about. I'm here to talk about the role we can play in making the Eastern Congo a better place." Playing down the rumors, then, but certainly not denying them.
Those rumors suggest that Affleck could be a potential candidate for senator in Massachusetts. John Kerry is widely believed to be replacing Hillary Clinton as secretary of state, according to Politico and if that happened, that Massachusetts seat would be up for grabs. Alec Gerlach, John Kerry's spokesman reportedly declined the opportunity to discuss Ben Affleck's political ambitions. He did, however, confirm that Affleck and Kerry planned to meet, along with other members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, which Kerry chairs.
During his testimony, Ben Affleck urged President Barack Obama to take action over the plight of Congo. "Resolving the cycle of violence does not necessarily require a significant new financial investment by the United States or U.S. boots on the ground. It does, however, require American political leadership — moral leadership even — to bring the parties together to address the larger sources of instability in the region… I may be naive, but I believe that our actions in foreign policy represent our values as a country — they represent who we are as a people." It remains to be seen whether or not Ben Affleck will ditch his movie career in favor of a life in politics but those rumors certainly seem to be gaining substance.

Why is he acting weird around me?
This guy has been giving me mixed signals lately. He will stare at me sometimes when he walks by, other times he will refuse to look at me when I'm... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
Well, there are two ways to look at this:
Either he really likes you and is being careful, not to look/make a stupid move. Perhaps in this case it would be useful to have a mutual friend to initial a dialog between the two of u. That would make it s very cute scenario.
(Thats me in most cases actually, I am a shy guy too).
The other way to look at it is that he is just being another guy wanting to be just friends and not get into a relationship. Kind of going by the lines - "guys will be guys".
What Guys Said 3
Basically the guy in question over here is a shy type..he doesn't have enough guts to make the first move( considering he knows that you like him). why dnt you make the first move!
or you can go on the slow steady way.. find a common friend & make sure he's around. saty in his company if you have many common friends... just till he becomes comfortable enough.
What Girls Said 3
This is pretty much what has been happening to me! lol - The only difference is that the guy in my situation has a girlfriend. I have no idea what to think about this either. I am pretty sure that he likes me (he also steals glances, smiles A LOT, etc.) but then again he acts weird sometimes and refuses to look at me, too. I am just as confused as you are, so I hope someone can help.
Are those two in a good relationship. Maybe they have had some disputes and he is confused. I don't mean to be the bad guy, but I really wouldn't think anything of this other then just the fact that it will not go any further then a casual friendship
....or a momentary crush.
I don't know anything about their relationsip - it's just that he acts really interested (tries to end up where I am, smiles, tries to carry on the conversation, his friends stare, he acts nervous etc.) but then sometimes he won't look at me or will only stare at me when I am not looking...
Have an opinion?

Our Shaker Heritage
Shaker Shed Farm, Market & Café takes its name from the Shakers, a historical religious sect that broke off from the Quakers in England, moved to the American colonies and settled in the Watervliet area. Called Shakers because they literally shook their upper bodies during worship, they established a dozen settlements throughout New York and New England in the late 1700s. There were 87 members of the Watervliet community by the turn of the 19th century.
Family owned and operated
Fast forward to about 1935. That's when Paul Coleman and his brothers bought land that was previously owned by the Shakers. After Paul's brothers left the business, he and his nephew kept on farming the property.
Paul married Helen Norris, whose family owned a chicken farm on Albany Shaker Road. Their daughter Bridget married David Brizzell, who decided to sell pansies off a roadside wagon in 1974.
Today, the 10-acre farm - which includes a fruit and vegetable store, a café and 11 greenhouses – is operated by their children Laura Lind and Benjamin Brizzell. Like their parents, they are committed to exceptional customer service and outstanding quality.

'My eye is doing pretty good'
April 17, 2009
So far the waltz seems to be going really good.
Every week each team on the show has to film what you call your "wides" and that's where your producer who films you in practice every day shoots your routine from one end of the studio and then he goes to the opposite end and shoots the whole routine from there.
So you run through it twice and he shoots it from both ends and the reason you do this is so the director can look at everybody's "wides" and begin putting a game plan together for how they're going to film the dance.
We generally haven't gotten our "wides" done until Friday and, in some cases, we haven't gotten to it until Saturday. We were able to do that today so that tells me that it is coming together pretty fast compared to some of the other routines.
We are getting to the point that a lot of things that are in the waltz are things I learned before; like the frame, the shaping, the pivots and few other things so it's not as time consuming.
Now it's about making sure we get it to where it starts feeling natural to me so I can do less thinking and just go with the music. And not have any questions about, "Hey, where am I at?"
Today we were able to run the routine several times with music and that's way ahead of the game. Like I said, most of the time we're not getting that done until Friday night or even Saturday. Now mind you, tomorrow we'll start working on technique.
But, I think, what helps me is to have the routine down pretty good in my head before I start working on the technique because it's hard to work on both at the same time. It's hard to think about your technique while you're trying to remember the routine.
If I'm able to get the footwork down of where we're going and how we're going there and at what tempo then, I think, it becomes easier later on to polish up the technique.
They can be really critical and what I mean is you can remember the whole routine, rise and fall at the right part, but if you take one wrong heel lead and they'll point it out by saying, "You weren't supposed to take a heel lead."
There are times you take a heel lead and times you don't so you have to be real clear on when and where.
We also filmed my long interview today, which is something we do every week, and that's where they pull out all the comments you see in the pre-taped packages right before Chelsie and I dance. It's an hour-long interview and they ask you a million questions about what's going on.
Speaking of which, my eye is doing pretty good.
I think some of the press wanted to make a big deal out of it, but it's not that big of a deal. It turned slightly black-and-blue, but it's not real bad. The cut's already scabbed over and on its way healing. Everything is fine with that and, I think, hopefully by Monday it should pretty much be back to normal.
But I feel like we're ahead of the game on this one. I'm just trying to stay focused in and put in the work every day. Our scores have been going back down the wrong way so we need to get 'em up!
'The fans got us through'
April 15, 2009
Woohoo! The fans got us through. Chelsie and I were happy to make it and we darn sure wanted a chance to redeem ourselves. We think we'll be able to do it with a slow waltz.
I just got home from the show. After it was done I went to eat dinner with Cody Lambert and his wife Leanne, Keith Ryan Cartwright and Jewel.
We had a nice dinner, but I'm going to hurry up and get in bed because tomorrow I have to get up and go practice our first group dance. Then I'm going to go do the "Chelsea Lately" show on E! and then I'm going to go to practice.
Thanks again for all the support we're getting. I know that it's the power of the fans that is helping to keep us in there.
It's a long day tomorrow so I better make this one short and sweet because I need to get my butt to sleep and make some big improvements.
'We can't have anyone lose faith on us'
April 14, 2009
Obviously we didn't get as good of scores as we would have liked to last night. The Jive is such a fast song that if you miss one little step your behind and then it's a chain reaction, and you can have a mess on your hands pretty quick.
But I thought we were doing a good job on the part before I missed the step. Then, once we recovered, I thought we finished out OK so, I guess, that's the bright side of it.
If we make it past tonight we have the waltz next week.
We can't have anyone lose faith on us. We have actually gotten a nine before and, I think, we can do that again.
Maybe the waltz will be a good one for us. The quickstep and foxtrot went pretty good for us and, I think, the waltz is somewhat similar to the foxtrot.
I still think we have a really strong fan base and that's a good thing because that's what Chelsie and I have to rely on when we don't get great scores, but we'll find all that out tonight on the results show.
It's just like my riding career: you take it one day at a time and try to give it your best every day so that's what I'm going to keep doing. I know that I'm not the best dancer, but we have so much room to improve that if we can get better we can, perhaps, surprise some folks.
I got a good night's sleep. Now we're just going to bare-down and see how it goes tonight.

Storytellers (and liars) perfect the art of crafting tales
Published: Thursday, April 15, 2010 at 6:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 15, 2010 at 10:34 a.m.
Our whole lives are a story, every step of the way from cradle to tomb.
13th Annual Ocala Storytelling Festival
What: Liar's Contest
When: 7 p.m. tonight
Where: Circle Square Cultural Center, 8395 S.W. 80th St., Ocala
cost: $12 general; $10 OTOW resident; $5 student; tickets available at the door prior to concert
Information: 854-3670 or www.csculturalcenter.com
What: Grand Concert
When: 7 p.m. Friday
Where: CenterPoint Church, 3318 E. Silver Springs Blvd.
Cost: $10 general, $5 student; free six and under; $25 family
Information: 821-0298; www.ocalastorytellingfestival.com
OK, so maybe some lives aren't Nobel Prize worthy, or Stephenie Meyer worthy or even Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs' ("Lemme tell you all a story 'bout a man named Jed ...") worthy. But no doubt there is a moment in every life, some element that, properly told, conjures up a stirring narrative.
That's the storytellers' craft, nay art: crystalizing that moment, and spinning a yarn from the seemingly mundane material into a tale that ensnares the listener.
And some of the best of these artists from hereabouts and parts yonder will be in town tonight and Friday for the 13th annual Ocala Storytelling Festival, a couple evenings of wonder, enchantment and maybe more than a few whoppers.
"Stories are not just for kids," says Jessica McCune, president of the annual festival. "In fact, that's one of our biggest hurdles - convincing people stories are for lifelong learning."
In the ongoing tale that's the Storytelling Festival, this is the second year the event does not include a Saturday event, though it is the first time one festival event - the always popular Liar's Contest at 7 tonight - will be held at On Top of the World, in the Circle Square Cultural Center.
"We're thrilled to be out on the (State Road) 200 corridor," McCune says. "We've always wanted that population in our festival, but it's been hard to get them downtown."
Friday's Grand Concert begins 7 p.m. at CenterPoint Church in Ocala.
"It used to be a movie theater, so it has a good auditorium," notes Taryn Evans, a festival committee member.
Tickets are being sold only at the door for both events. Among the storytellers this year are Pat Nease and Cheryl Floyd, both renowned Florida fablers, as well as local yarn spinners Holly Denton, Jeremy Evans, Jack Copeland, Don Leonard, Ann Scroggie and McCune herself.
The festival was shortened a day this year and last, McCune says, due mainly to economic conditions curtailing student field trips. In the past, as many as 2,400 elementary school students would pack storytelling venues all day Friday, leaving Saturday for the public. Some 1,200 second- to fifth-graders are spending much of Friday with the storytellers at a dozen venues about the community, with the Grand Concert that evening.
But what's the big deal about these tales, anyway? Why should we care?
"Stories are a very important way for our values, our traditions to be passed on," says Jon Spelman, a Baltimore storyteller who's the national guest storyteller at this year's festival. He's been telling stories professionally for 30 years.
"All of these values and traditions are built on the stories we've heard as we've grown," he adds. "And they tell us about ourselves."
The best stories, says Spellman, who's spent much of this week backpacking in the Ocala National Forest and maybe even picking up some new tales of the forest, are those that draw both listener and teller in.
"I can't get you to hang on to every word unless I'm hanging on to every word," he adds.
While his tales might range from epic to anecdote, there is one thing Spelman says he's never done - compete in a liars' competition.
But he will emcee the return of the Liar's Contest tonight at Circle Square, where two-time winner and reigning champ Copeland hopes to defend his crown. "It's going to be tough," he says.
"What seems to win the contest are tall tales that suck you in," adds Copeland, 65, of Ocala. "It's a good story that draws you along when suddenly the audience goes, 'Say, what?'"

St. Louis MVP Albert Pujols and Mets third baseman David Wright each said hello to 2010 with a first at-bat home run, each dramatic for its own reason.
It took Pujols, who battled a bad back for part of the spring, about 10 minutes to become the clubhouse leader for another NL MVP award. (OK, that might be a bit of an exaggeration, but you get the idea).
As for Wright, his power diminished noticeably last year -- from 33 homers in 2008 to 10 last year.
Worse for Wright and the Mets, of those 10 homers in '09, only five came at Citi Field.
You can't judge a season on one at-bat, but for Wright to smash an opposite-field homer in Citi Field to greet 2010 ... if he can regain his power game, you can't underestimate how important that will be for both Wright and the Mets.

1911-D Two and a Half Dollar1911-D $2 1/2 -- Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. Unc. The low mintage 1911-D has always been the key to the Indian quarter eagle series. Since all other issues of the type are readily acquired, collector pressure is focused on the '11-D stopper. The present example is bright from a wipe and has a coin counter mark on the obverse border. We also note a small recessed area below the R in AMERICA.

Such a deal, they SHOUT
A question that deserves some pondering:
[W]hy do scammers always print their names in ALL CAPS? Whether they claim to be Nigerian oil ministers or Chinese missionary real-estate moguls like MR QIAN HUA PAN & YAI CHOW WONG PAN (that's a direct cut-and-paste from the email), you can always tell a scammer by his all-caps name.
The only exception to this seems to be the Brazilian spam, of which I get an abundance, perhaps due to having a dormant account at Orkut, which has relocated its headquarters from California to Belo Horizonte because, well, that's where the users are.
