If you do not receive your emailed confirmation within a day of making your reservation please contact us
Check in is between 3 PM and 6 PM. Having no employees we wear all the hats required to operate our Bed and Breakfast. Therefore although we support your eagerness to get your well deserved vacation started early, we cannot accommodate early arrivals. This includes the dropping off items and luggage.
We are happy to accommodate a later check-in with prior notice. If you are held up in traffic or think you may be arriving later please give us a call. If by 6 PM there has been no communication and no prior arrangements for a late arrival have been made you may be considered a "No show" and the credit card holding your room may be charged. As we are owner operated and have no employees and without prior notice there may be no one present to check-in a later arrival, thus your room may not be held. We strive to provide great customer service but need your prior notice to accommodate this request.
Check-out time is 11 AM
Reservation Policy
Major credit cards to hold the room. Cash or personal check is preferred upon arrival. Making your reservation denotes that you are aware of and accept our reservation and cancellation policies.
If one room is reserved we hold your room with your credit card but it is not charged until your arrival. For Holidays and Special Events we have a 30 day Cancellation policy and your card may be charged at the time of reservation. If all or a portion of your stay is re-booked you will be refunded that portion less 8% processing fee.
International reservation:
When booking a reservation from outside of the country 1/2 of your stay will be charged to the card holding your room at the time confirmation. There is a 14 day cancellation policy. If you cancel within 14 days of your reservation this amount will be refunded to you less any fees we incur for the charge and reversal. Otherwise your balance is due on arrival. We love our international guests but a recent occurrence has made it necessary to alter our policy. Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to your stay!
Group Reservations
Unfortunately we have had to alter our reservation policy if more than one room is held by the same party. We love to accommodate groups but generally if any party within the group needs to cancel the whole group will cancel. This makes it difficult to get all the rooms re-booked with in our usual 14 day period. For this reason we require a 30 written (emailed) cancellation for each room.
When group reservations are made each room will be charged at the time of reservation for the entire stay. For this reason it is best if each party use their own credit card to reserve their room. If a cancellation is received at least 31 days prior to your reservation the party cancelling will be refunded the full amount less a 8% processing fee. If you cancel 30 days or less prior to your reservation you are responsible for the entire stay. If we are able to re-book any portion of that stay we will refund that amount less our 8% processing fee. Reservations are only valid for the names listed on the confirmation. Rooms are restricted to two people maximum.
Package prices are subject to change but are set at the time of reservation and package rates do not include 9% county bed tax.
Cancellation Policy
Due to our small size cancellations affect us significantly and they are the hardest part of this job. Primarily because people don't generally cancel at the last minute because of an event that they have foreseen. To allow sufficient time to re-book, we require a 14 day notice of cancellation (30 days for holidays, special events, or if more than one room has been reserved for the same party.) If you cancel your reservation within the 14th day of your reservation (30 days for holidays and special events, or if more than one room has been reserved for the same party) you are held responsible for the whole stay. If we are able to re-book your stay that portion will be refunded less a 8% processing fee we incur for the charge and refund of your card. These policies apply if all or a portion of your reservation has been cancelled.

Buzz: The NHL Has Proposed A Players/Owners Only Meeting
5:59PM: Jonathon Gatehouse, who wrote "The Instigator" about Gary Bettman notes that it was the meeting between Trever Linden and Calgary owner Harley Hotchkiss which led to the deal in 2005.
5:56PM: Bill Daly emailed Pierre LeBrun and said "We want to find a way to get to a deal nothing else has worked. The Commissioner felt that we might as well propose something different. We will see how they respond."
5:46PM: John Shannon tweets: From a League source "Nothing else has worked – big groups, small meetings, mediation. So let's try something else."
5:32PM: Larry Brooks tweets "For its next trick, NHL proposes that players negotiate their own contracts without representation from agents."
5:28PM: Dreger adds "Not all owners would be included in this owner-player meeting. Hasn't been determined. Not sure why either side wouldn't welcome this."
5:23PM: According to Darren Dreger and Katie Strang, Gary Bettman has proposed the idea of owners and players meeting without any NHL or NHLPA brass.
Dreger says that Fehr and the players are believed to be considering the idea.

By JOSEPH PASULKASouthport, N.C
This new immigration scheme is racist. There are six billion people in the world, living in almost two hundred countries. This proposal grants special treatment to thirty-million Mexicans and Central Americans, plus their relatives, while penalizing all other nationalities who remain in their home countries dreaming of United States citizenship.
The Haitians and Africans, Poles and Latvians, Indians and Pakistanis ... are they not also worthy human beings?
They have been promised a legal and orderly application process. Ordinary citizens Republicans and Democrats, are not anti-immigrant. Our politicians are.
Once again, they are selfishly responding solely to business interests and to potential new Latino votes.
Americans unite!

RANGELEY, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - Maine Wardens have resumed recovery efforts for three snowmobilers who went through the ice on Rangeley Lake late last year.
PHOTOS: Search resumes
41-year-old John Spencer of Litchfield, 43-year-old Glenn Henderson of Sabattus, and 40-year-old Ken Henderson of China apparently went into open water on the lake on December 30. The Maine Warden Service had to stop their recovery operations in January when ice formed and temperatures dipped below zero.
Thursday, game wardens used side scanning sonar to search the area near where the men's sleds, helmets and gloves were found earlier this year. When the sonar located a number of areas of interest, divers went in.
Lt. Kevin Adam said, "If you're a family member, you want your loved one back. You want that closure. Some of their lives are in limbo because of this. We haven't found found their loved one. So that's obviously playing on us."

Monterey Historics: Snippets from Group 4A
As mentioned earlier, here's some on-track action that never made the cut in the December 2008 issue of Hemmings Motor News (actually, we didn't have enough room). Group 4A – reserved for sports cars from 1956-1961 over 2,500cc – ran their 13-lap even on Saturday. By the time I had climbed the hill and wound my way over to the famed "corkscrew," it was a little difficult to find a shooting location without getting blitzed by spectators whose view I had just accidentally blocked – can't blame them, I would be upset, too. Persistence paid off, though, and in the end I had a prime location to capture some of the action.
1957 Ferrari 625 TRC. Driver: Mike Callaham of Orinda, California. Mike finished 13th.
1958 Scarab Mk3. Driver: John Morton of El Segundo, California. John won the 13-lap main event, leading all but the first lap.
1957 Maserati 450S (Driver: Tom Hollfelder of Covina, California) leads a 1960 Maserati T-61 (Driver: Thomas Mittler of Mishawaka, Indiana). The two drivers finished 10th and 11th respectively.
A 1959 Lister-Jaguar (car #60 driven by Michael Silverman of Scottsdale, Arizona) chases the 1958 Ferrari 250TR driven by David Love of San Rafael, California. Michael would eventually finish 15th, while David took the checkers in 20th.
1958 Lister-Jaguar. Driver: Steven Hilton of Scottsdale, Arizona. Steven finished in 12th.
1954 Jaguar D-Type. Driver: Terry Larson of Mesa, Arizona. Terry finished 19th.
More to follow shortly…

Aside from the cosmetic cleanup at the College of Eastern Utah, students and community members have something else new to see on the school grounds.
More particularly, on the soccer fields.
The new CEU soccer program had its first home soccer game on the fields behind the school on Sept. 24 against Snow College.
Despite losing 2-0, coach Ron Dadgari considers the debut game to be a success.
"We can beat any of these teams," he pointed out. "It's just a matter of pulling it together. It takes time to mold and play as a unit."
Defensively, the team played extremely well, Dadgari said. However, getting in sync offensively is something the program is still working on.
"I take more of the blame on the offensive part," stated Dadgari. "I didn't recognize that I should put a little more offensive pressure on in the second half."
The team will take the experience into account this week while preparing for Weber State. Weber currently has the best win record for the conference.
"We need to create more opportunities on their goal," indicated Dadgari. "The players are very excited to play at home [and] I'm really proud of them."
In addition to upping the offensive intensity, Dadgari said the team will have more success if it can play together as well as it did in the Snow game.
"If we play that competitve against Weber, we'll be in it," he concluded.
The Eagles host Weber Oct. 1 at 5 p.m. on the soccer fields behind the Bunnell-Dmitrich Athletic Center.

Priced at $22,000, the television can render better clarity than DVD or even Blu-ray. This isn't HD, but rather, ultra HD!
LG thinks it's possible to make a 96-incher, but for the time being, it will be content with this 84-inch model. Surely, LG can make do with that!

Glasgow's city centre is compact and easily explored on foot, but public transport will be needed to reach some of the major attractions, which are further out. The integrated transport network includes a reliable but confusing bus system with connections to the underground and train network. Some routes operate limited services throughout the night. The simple underground system, also known as the Clockwork Orange, has two circular routes that are easy to understand; this is the best way to get between the city centre and the West End. The suburban train network is fast and efficient. Taxis are readily available and provide excellent, if fairly expensive, service. A car is not necessary in the centre, and it is often easier to get around using public transport. Car users can make use of the park-and-ride system at underground stations outside the city centre.
GMT (GMT +1 from last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October).
The electrical current in the UK is 230 volts, 50Hz. Flat three-pin plugs are standard.
The currency is the British Pound (GBP), which is divided into 100 pence. ATMs are available in all towns and Visa, MasterCard and American Express are widely accepted; visitors with other cards should check with their credit card companies in advance. Foreign currency can be exchanged at bureaux de change and large hotels, however better exchange rates are likely to be found at banks.
The international country dialling code for the UK is +44. Mobile phone coverage is extensive, using GSM 1800 networks which may not be compatible with some dual-band US cell phones. Internet cafes are available in all major towns and cities, train stations and airports and wifi is widely available.

Like the rest of Scotland, the weather in Glasgow is unpredictable and several degrees colder than England in the south of the British Isles. Winters are long and wet, with very cold winds and some snow, and average temperatures ranging from 35°F (1°C) to 45°F (7°C) with seldom a sign of the sun. However, when spring arrives (between March and May) the mild temperatures and colourful flowers in parks and gardens make the city a cheerful place to be. In summer most days start off misty but warm up to sunny, mild afternoons, with an average high of 67°F (19°C) in the height of summer.
Buses leave regularly for Glasgow, stopping off at the main railway and bus stations. The journey to the city centre takes 15 to 20 minutes.

I had this phone for about 2 years and I liked it for the most part. Although, I have to say that this phone is a heavy glass piece of technology and if dropped or banged can smash very easily. Everyone I know that has this iphone or any other iphone has smashed it at some point and had to get the screen replaced. This can end up costing a lot of money unless you are very careful. I also found that the battery runs out very quickly and I would not leave the house without it being at 100% incase it were to die on me. This phone is isn't all bad though and has some really nice features and the internal ipod is great. Personally, after trying other smartphones (Android), I would not go back to having an iphone as I find other smartphones to be better value for money and good quality.
I recently bought my iphone off ebay. It is fast and perfect for all the basics of a phone: calling and texting are fast and simple. It also has siri, the voice control system created by Apple. It can call, text send emails, or set alarms at your command. The sound quality, and screen are very good. Though unfortunately, I have hear many stories of how easy they are to break a recommend a good case, because otherwise you may break yours.
The camera is of good quality and takes great photos. Whether it is portraits, the sunsets, your friends, or even (shiver) a selfie, the iphone is ideal. It has both a front and rear camera and takes great photos.
Many apps are available on the app store, from Facebook to candy crush.
Unfortunately, my iphone, and other people that I know one's can have their battery draining quickly especially when 3G is on. Mine lasts me about a day and a half without 3G, with wifi. However, mine is usually on standby, so would usually last for about a day. WIth 3G on, you can lose a percent a minute (mine does), and it's quite a risk, and worrying to the percentage number rapidly dropping. It charges very quickly though, maybe 3 hours to fully charge it.
Memory easily filled up after a year with photos and other general things that accumulate leaving me with uncomfortable decision of what to delete as I have still not backed up all my photos, videos, and documents. I would recommend maybe getting one with more memory, but, if you are slightly price concious, stick with this one, and make sure to back up regularly to leave yourself loads of space.
I have, and do really enjoy my iphone. It is useful, simple, and ideal for all its basic functions. Checking the internet facebook,calling, texting, taking photos and checking maps.
Overall, I would recommed it if you are looking for a phone with average battery, and fulfills all smartphone capabilities as well as having a good camera.
Do not buy if you are a workaholic and need to be constantly connected to 3G or 4G- if you do have to buy it- buy a portable charger!! Enjoy.
now you're probably thinking that because The iphone 4s is a product made by Apple, that it be quite durable. Well, think again. The main problem that i've had with this phone is that it is extremely easy to damage. An example would be when i was sitting on a garden wall outside the front of my house no bigger than 4 inches in which the phone fell from onto a concrete floor and to my disappointment the phone screen has a big crack going diagonally from the top to the right of the screen. If anyone was to buy this phone, i would recommend that you buy a case for it before using it outside so that your phone is protected. luckily i have insurance so getting it fixed shouldn't be a problem. The mobile data and 3g decides when it wants to work to be perfectly honest and again, for an apple product I'm not entirely happy with the phones capabilities. a good feature that it does have is Siri, although you can only use this when connected to the internet to do certain things. The phone has a weather app which allows you to see the forecast over the duration of the week which enables you to make arrangements with friends if you know it's going to be a nice day. When messaging contacts, you use a qwerty keyboard which is beneficial to those who are used to using a computer keyboard. You're able to sync your itunes library to the phones via a laptop or a computer as well as being able to store pictures in your camera roll. you may also take photos using either the front or back camera which is good because when you're on face time you can switch the camera round so that the person in the call can see your face or you can turn it around so that you can show them something.
If you're planing a train journey and you look for it online, finding the correct rout, you're able to screenshot it so that it is saved into your camera roll ready for you to view at any time.
On this phone you're unable to save files such as an mp3 file or a word document. Say perhaps you wanted to e-mail your cv to some body, you would have to make sure that your cv is saved into your google drive or drop box in order for you to attatch it which is a nuisance because everybody wants a phone that readily has every thing available for them.
The app store has a humungous selection paid and free apps for every one with an apple id to purchase, meaning that you can never really get bored. In my personal opinion the phone should be able to connect to a laptop and be able to receive music via the old school drag and drop method so that you don't have to transfer your computers music library into itunes and the sync the iphone and itunes.
I have had my Apple iphone 4s 16gb for almost 2 years now. This was not my first Apple product, I have had Ipod Touches in the past, but this was my first iphone. I have been very impressed with it and have had no problems whatsoever. The camera/video camera is great, the quality feels great, ease of use is fantastic. After having an Ipod Touch (which is basically like an iphone without the phone) I found it really easy to get used to, but I think, even without that i would not have had a problem. There are always pretty good tutorials on internet anyway, to help you with any issues. My only slight issue is that I wish I had gone for a 32gb iphone, so that I could store more photos/videos, but as I got this with a Phone Contract, I did not really have the choice at the time.
My favourite thing about this phone/Apple is the huge choice of Apps in the App Store. You could spend all day looking through them all/downloading, but you have to be aware of storage space.
I will definitely go for an iphone next time, but maybe one with a bigger hard drive.
Siri is great, but I do not use it that often - I mostly forget that it is there.
The quality of this phone is great, but watch the glass screen. I have dropped mine on occasions, but it has never broken. I have a tough case on mine though.
You will not be disappointed if you choose this phone.
This is the first iPhone I have purchased and I absolutely love it, I have had it for nearly 2 years now.
There are so many positive things about the 4s which makes life so much easier, for example you can get mobile banking, shopping applications and my all time favorite, the Tesco club card app.
Personally I don't think I would get any other brand, and I am currently looking to upgrade to the 5s soon.
With this iPhone like the rest you can get something called the iMessage, which means when you message other iPhone users (who have wi-fi enabled or mobile internet) it will send for free. I like this because you can also send free picture messages as well.
When I first used my iPhone i thought I would never get the hang of it, but its soeasy to pick up, the whole screen, internet tools and browsing are really easy to navigate through making it that much better then any other make of phone.
The best part of this iPhone is the iTunes library and the music player, the sound quality and video qualities in my eyes are excellent.
The only problem with this smartphone like others, the battery runs out super quick, especially if you are on it a lot. Although in fairness the battery charges up super quick so you can't really complain.
If dropped the iPhone glass is likely to have smashed as this is easily done and I have done it many times before, I hope apple looks at this problem for any future products they release.
All in all I would recommend any one to buy an iPhone they are suitable for many ages ranging from young to old.
Go for it!
When it comes to smart phones, tablets etc etc, I am a complete and utter technophobe, so for me personally, things need to be as simple and straightforward as possible. To cut to the chase Apple Iphones are, in my opinion, the most easy to use smartphone there is. And yes, I have tried others, HTC, and samsung galaxy to name a couple but neither were as fool proof as the iphone.
The frustrating thing with them, is if they completely run out of battery life you do have to wait approx 7 minutes or so before it will switch back on. This is somewhat annoying if you're in the middle of an important conversation, or any conversation for that matter and your phone dies. Also occaisionally it does freeze. But it is occasionally and is easily rectified by switching off and back on.
They are very straightforward to sync to your computer or laptop to transfer photos and music etc and with the added addition of icloud you can automatically sync from apple product to apple product eg ipad with no fuss or hassle at all as it does it automatically.
The apps store has everythig you need and are easy to delete and add, as and when you want them. You can even turn your iphone into a kindle with the kindle app.
I use mine for absolutely everything. From kindle, to online banking, to ordering my weekly grocerys for delivery. Buy a docking speaker and you have your own stereo system (providing you have the music on your phone first!)
A total must have phone in my opinion. I know I couldn't be without mine!
With so many phones now on the market that are comparable and fast as PC, does the Iphone still cut it in the competitive market?
I have always had a smartphone and could not live without it. Email, instant messaging and built in social networks are essential. It is a bit like having a remote control for your TV. How on earth did my life function without these items? The Iphone 4s takes it to a whole new level.
First of all it is slim, sleek and sheek. I love the curves on the edges and it just looks cool. It is so easy to operate with literally a touch of the button you are flicking through a variety of websites within seconds. I have been used to waiting a least 5-10 seconds for things to load on my previous phones. I never thought this would make much difference but I could not go back to waiting that long now.
It has so many functions probably half of them I will never use. That said what it useful for me are things like bluetooth, games, email, speaker phone, youtube, social networks and the speed it operates. Facetime I am still getting to grips with basically because I look horrible on the screen! Once I am over my self consciousness I am sure I will find this useful.
The downsides are things like the camera. I can come out a little blurry on occasions but that side you can adjust the light of the photos you take and change the whole picture at a click of a button. The only other downside is that these Iphones do seem a bit samey samey. By that I mean what is the difference between the Iphone 4s and Iphone 5? I mean the real difference? What is there going to be to keep me buying another one. That is for another day. This is my first Iphone and I am very happy with it. Will I be buying one again I am not sure but for now I am Iphone follower and I am pleased with my choice.
I've always had normal phones which I only use to take pictures ,text and to and answer ,make calls. I've had three ipod nano's and iPod touch so I was already used to using Apple products, I've have this iPhone 4S for about year and a half. I first decided to get an iPhone 4S after my contract on blackberry which I had for 2 years ran out,I wanted a touch screen phone on pay as you go and at the time the iPhone 4S was one of the top phones out. At the time most of my friends has an iPhone so I decided to buy it. This is the best phone I've had by far, it comes with a 8 megapixel camera, iMessage and facetime, torch,access to iTunes and the App Store and lots of free games/apps. I usually change my phone every two years and I don't see me getting a new phone, even though compared to other phones the iPhone is more prone to break and has less battery life I have never had an problems with this phone. After Seeing friends with other versions of iPhones and comparing to iPhone 4S this to me comes with the best features at the price you can buy it.
I just love iPhones and literally couldn't be without mine. The phone isn't large and best of all its touch screen which makes it easy to use. There are so many good things about the iPhone which makes day to day life easier like apps on the go Mobile Banking, Shopping and games. I first got my iPhone around 3 and a half years ago and would never use any other brand. I upgraded my phone last year and decided to get a Samsung Galaxy S3 and it was the worst decision I made it was only a few weeks later when I sold it and bought the 4s I just missed the iPhone so much and everything on the Galaxy seemed 10 times harder. With the iPhone you can get I message which means when you message someone else who has an iPhone the message is free which could save you a fortune if you text on a regular basis like me. It is so easy to browse the internet and to download things you need. I would always recommend an iPhone to anyone.
I have always used apple products, I have had 3 Ipods, an Ipad and this was my first Iphone. First off the Apple iPhones look great, they always have such a dignified look about them being thin, glossy black with a large screen.
They feel great, they are light and easy to fit into a pocket when needing putting away. The touch face aspect just awed me when I first got one as it was the first time I had ever had a touch screen phone. The touch response is second to none. The only problem I had with it was finger marks, although buying a relatively cheap film screen was no big deal. I also liked the fact that you could differ the brightness of the screen or have it on auto brightness. This made it so much easier to look at my phone in different lights such as night and day.
The actual processing speed of the phone is great, I find that it loads pretty quickly and takes only a few seconds for most Apps to come on. The idea of setting out the apps on the different screens was brilliant, only taking a couple of swipes to get to the screen with the app you want on.
The actual interface on the phone I think is the best for the smartphones on offer at the moment. Its just so simple to use. Buttons for the phone, messages and internet is right there on every screen for you to easily find and press. Within the space of a few seconds you can ring someone, send a message and check the football score.
Overall I think it is a brilliant phone, the only problem for me would be the price. I paid £100 to go on a monthly contract of £350! Pretty steep, you can definitely find cheaper alternatives elsewhere.
When I was contacted by my mobile phone contract provider telling me I was due an upgrade and asked if I would consider an iPhone I had my reservations being an android user. Although it took some getting used to, I have to say my high expectations were met. The design is second to none, extremely stylish and over the two months I've had the handset appears to be durable. The usability is great and took little getting used to - extremely simple software. The App Store has a great selection of music, games, movies and more (although I've already filled the memory with myv vast music collection)! I would highly reccommend the iPhone, the only downside being battery life so far isn't as good as previous devices although I am putting it through its paces with constant daily use at the moment. I also had a problem with one of the speakers not working when I first received the device and visited an Apple store in London - customer service was top class and they immediately exchanged the faulty handset for a completely new one.
I finally moved over to an iphone and did so with high expectations. These have definitely not been met. While the web browsing seems fine, for anyone who has not used an iphone before, this is in no way intuitive. The biggest disappointment is the photo quality. Compared with my 4 year old middle of the road android phone, I have noticed an obvious negative difference in quality to the point where I am unlikely to use the camera or video functions. I was also disappointed to find that i couldn't download icloud for my phone as it is not compatible with windows vista. While the design of the phone is sleek, it is relatively heavy and does not feel overly robust without a case to protect it. In addition, to transfer and set up my contacts took me ages! Overall, I wish I had gone for a cheaper android phone rather than listen to the hype and marketing associated with this model. The only advantage I have found is the availabiltiy of facetime.
I have had many mobile phones and smart phones and always resisted the urge to get an iPhone until last year. Now admittedly, I don't get the benefit of its sleek design because it is rammed into a bulky defender case but the look of it is very nice. Slim enough to be in your pocket.
The apps are probably the best part of owning an iPhone. You can do pretty much anything on it, and play pretty much anything from Sims to word searches. The selection of free and paid for apps is very good. The only downside is the regular updates (that I tend to ignore!).
A feature to definitely make use of is the cloud store, that as long as you are connected to broadband backs up your phone in case of a disaster. Make sure you switch on the back up capability for sure.
The touch keypad and screen is easy to use and pretty self explanatory. Siri is a pretty useless but great entertainment addition because he never does what you ask for.
My only issue is the newest update iOS7 broke my husbands iPhone, which Apple take no responsibility for so he no longer has his phone, but if you are like me and ignore upgrades, you won't notice anything wrong. For that reason though, I can't give the iPhone 5 stars.
I've been an iPhone user for some years, and I think my phone is a great piece of technology. A lot of people seem to rate iPhones simply on their merit of being an "Apple" product - and therefore either love them or hate them... usually without ever using one.
I'm not a hardcore Apple fan, so will simply review the phone on its merits as a piece of technology. Needless to say, most people already have their own opinion of iPhones so a review will be of little help!
The Design
Honestly, I'm not a massive fan on the design of the iPhone. I find its rigid edges a little too uncomfortable to hold without an outer case, and find other phones with rounder edges much nicer to hold in the hand. Its glass front and back, whilst nice to look at, get diry VERY easily and also scratch easily. I'm forever wiping my screen as its constantly covered in fingerprints and dust - but this can't be helped with any touchscreen device.
Despite the phone's glass outer, it's actually pretty resilient. Granted, you often see a lot of people talking into smashed iPhones - but they must have taken a LOT of beating. I've dropped mine onto hardwood surfaces several times and it's survived without even a scratch.
Battery Life
The battery life isn't amazing either. Granted, I use mine a LOT, but if I want it to last until I get home from work, I have to charge it at my desk by 3 p.m. On standby with minimal use, you can get away without charging for maybe a day and a half. Moderate use will mean a regular daily charge. If you're going to be using a lot of apps, expect to need to charge again after 4 hours. Really.
The interface of Apple iPhone is, I think, the main selling point. It's very user-friendly, tidily laid out and easy to navigate. My only complaint is the lack of customisation available. Aside from being able to change your background wallpaper, you can't do much else to change the "feel" of the interface.
App Store
The App store is great too: easy to search and has a massive selection of apps - both free and paid. You can usually find a free app for whatever the purpose you need one for so you should never have to buy anything. However, a big downfall that Apple have introduced in recent years is that you need an iTunes account to set up a new iPhone, and to set one up, you need to put in debit/credit card details. If you don't intend to make any purchases, you may feel unsafe giving out your card details.
I'm not sure that the iPhone is worth such a high price point. For what you get, it is overpriced for sure. Other competitor phones can be purchased cheaper with higher specs.
Something that lets iPhone down is not having an expandable memory. 16gb does not go far when you're downloading a lot of apps, music and movies. It would be nice to be able to add extra space via a Micro SD like most other competitor phones allow.
It is a good phone and, provided you want to spend a large amount of money on a phone, I would recommend an iPhone. Its interface and ease of use sets it apart from its competitors. However, I'm not sure it truly is worth the premium you pay when so many other handsets - many with better specifications - are available for the same price, or usually much less.
Around two weeks ago I purchased a white 5s after a year since last owning a iPhone 4. During that time the experience of other phones was frustrating to say the least, having got used to a phone prior that facilitates so effortlessly in assisting you with your everyday life. It is connected up to our home wifi so am enjoying the full benefits of it, my youngster is also. Things we have done include setting up a monthly budget app, creating photo collages (very useful having the option of the front and back camera), giving Father Christmas a haircut and playing the latest releases at home hooked up to speakers via a 3.5mm jack lead. The depth of sound isn't amazing without any additional support but it isn't lousy, putting it in perspective it's just a phone so I feel it does a good job as often people have speakers to boost it if need be. The screen size and rotating screen is great and it has the ability to lock to portrait or landscape. When sending texts if sending to another apple user, messages will send regardless of zero signal. Pictures can be easily emailed within a few taps. Linking email accounts up is easy enough. The graphics on the weather forecast for example are really impressive!

Al Jazeera just purchased Current TV. And Al Gore stands to make about $100 million out of the sweet deal.
There are still people who will not watch it, who will say that it's a 'terrorist network, said Philip Seib, the author of "The Al Jazeera Effect." Al Jazeera has to override that by providing quality news.
Management has already selected a new name for the channel, Al Gorezeera. . .

Joyce Fagel, M.A.
I work at Shoreline on Mondays, Wednesdays and some Fridays.
Office Hours / Drop-In Advising
Please contact Advising & Counseling Center at 206-546-4559 for office hour information.
Please call 206-546-4559.
|Room 2814
Academic Advisor
Advising & Counseling Center and Science Division
Transfer Programs
My specialty is in advising for health, science, engineering, architecture and related programs. Most of these programs require transfer to a university or Baccalaureate college to study these fields.
Professional/Technical Programs
I also work with students interested in professional/technical programs that can be completed here at Shoreline CC, especially the Biotechnology and the Clean Energy Program.
Preparation for Health Professions Programs
The health professions are very popular and there are many training programs, some at community colleges and some at a universities or Baccalaureate colleges. Preparation for health professional programs typically requires health related experiences in addition to prerequisite courses. If you are interested in a health profession, I encourage you to subscribe to Shoreline's Pre-Health blog, which will give you information about local events and opportunities related to health care.
Prerequisites for Math and Science Courses
I support the Science Division faculty as an additional person who can help students with questions about placement in mathematics, biology and chemistry courses and review of prerequisites for those courses. Please review the information provided on the prerequisites page and use the contacts listed for questions and prerequisite review.
About Me
I've been a University of Washington advisor since January 1989. I advised for nine years in the Biology Department, and have been located at Shoreline Community College for advising here since 1998. Currently I divide my time 50/50 between the two schools.
Just like some of you, I changed my major a few times. I started as a pre-medical school student, then studied one year of physical therapy before I settled on a psychology major at Augsburg College in Minneapolis. After that I completed a Masters Degree in Counseling and Student Personnel Psychology at the University of Minnesota. Now I've been advising pre-health and science students for many years, so I am able to combine all my interests!
I was born and grew up in the Netherlands and came to the United States as an international college student. At that time, I really did not understand many things about American culture and certainly not the degree names and other aspects of the college/university system. Now I love explaining it to others, whether they are born in the US or not, and helping them through the maze of admission requirements, application process, degree options, course requirements and transition to the university.
Education offers surprising moments and I encourage you not to forget that learning can be fun. For example, one of my most memorable and valuable classes was Acting 101 which I registered for on a whim. I had never done any acting before and I was scared on the stage. It became my worst grade, but I came to enjoy that class, made new friends, and it helped me get over my fear of public speaking.
But enough of me. If you are thinking of taking some classes here in math, science, engineering or related fields, or are already a Shoreline CC student in these fields, please look through the information on the Science Division web pages. Our Science Faculty and I are eager to be your advisors, so please don't hesitate to contact any one of us!

Region 1: EPA New England
Minimizing Solid Waste
The third factor to consider for making your event "greener" is to reduce, reuse and recycle various materials that will be used. These materials range from construction materials to printed materials to food. As a first step to reduce solid waste, refer to EPA's solid waste guide, which outlines the key steps in planning and conducting an environmentally aware event, profiles a variety of meetings and events, and provides a checklist that can be used as a planning tool. Another source of information is EPA's resource center, Recycle on the Go.

Other products that can easily be recycled with the proper planning include cardboard, paper, cans and bottles. One way to reduce the amount of paper is to go paperless for promotional materials, event registration and confirmation, and speaker presentations. If you do use paper, make sure it is recycled and processed chlorine-free paper; avoid glossy paper and use vegetable-based inks. If you use plastic name badges, they too can be recycled. More information and links to web sites that will help you reduce, reuse and recycle are available through EPA's Green Meeting Initiative.
One additional area that presents a tremendous opportunity for making your event greener is in food service. Typically, there are numerous gatherings that provide meals and snacks. Standard green practices include using china and glass rather than disposable tableware, a buffet instead of boxed lunches, and cloth napkins instead of paper napkins. Condiments such as sugar, cream, ketchup, etc., should be served in bulk rather than individually packaged containers and drinks should be available in pitchers rather than from individual plastic bottles, when feasible.
You and your caterers should explore purchasing locally-grown produce. On average, food travels 1,500 miles from producer to end-user. Using locally grown produce will help to reduce the impacts of transporting food items over long distances, thereby reducing CO2 emissions and shipping costs. Equally important to remember is that local farms contribute to the preservation of open space and support the local economy.
You should also plan ahead for what will happen to food items not consumed. Rather than simply throwing it away, can any of it be donated? Food recovery is one way to help reduce hunger in America. It supplements federal food assistance programs by making better use of a food source that already exists. According to EPA's Organic Materials Web site, almost 25 percent of the food we prepare, or approximately 100 billion pounds, goes to waste each year and less than 3 percent of food waste is recovered. But the real story is that millions of people could have been fed by those lost resources. If you are able to donate any unspoiled food from your event, the Good Samaritan Law provides legal protection. You can locate local food banks or food rescue organizations at America's Second Harvest, which is a national food bank network.

Rock and Wrap It Up! Inc., a non-profit organization working to alleviate hunger, is an excellent example of how an organization is making such donations happen. Initially, the organization worked with the music industry to recover leftover backstage food by arranging to have it delivered to local shelters. The organization has expanded to work with college cafeterias, professional sporting events, election night congressional political parties, and more.
If you cannot donate leftover food, remember food prep and plate scraps can be composted. According to EPA, food scraps make up almost 12% of all municipal solid waste generated in the United States. The Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, which can serve up to 9,000 people per meal, composts an estimated 2.5 tons of food residuals per month. More information on composting organic materials is available from EPA.

The MiniDV format delivers more than 500 lines of horizontal resolution. In terms of picture quality, this is about 25% better than the best analog formats. It features a DV terminal, also known as a FireWire terminal, which conforms to the IEEE 1394 standard. Using this terminal, you can transfer digital video and audio to and from a computer equipped with a DV terminal, another DV camcorder, or a DV VCR. The digital data transfer occurs without any degradation to the image or audio. This means you can edit movies on your computer and maintain the same high level of picture and audio quality when you transfer the edited movie back to DV tape using the DV terminal. And with supplied Canon DV Messenger software, the camcorder can be used for Internet Video Chat with family and friends across the country or around the world!

Lundqvist said that he feels "lost and weird mentally" not playing hockey.
"I get very hungry, not just to jump in and play with Frölunda but to play hockey at all." Lundqvist added that he feels the adrenaline pumping through his body when he watches Frolunda play and he wants to jump on the ice and play.
He said that nothing can replace that feeling of adrenaline that hockey brings him.

HEUVELTON – The villages centennial celebrations, held Saturday, were great fun, Mayor Barbara A. Lashua said.
Held despite heavy snowfall, the celebrations included a parade, fireworks display and the dedication of a time capsule to be opened at the next centennial.
State Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton, was in attendance at the dedication of the time capsule and presented the village with a proclamation celebrating the towns history.
The proclamation was framed and ready to hang, Mrs. Lashua said.
But the celebration didnt end there.
At 6 p.m. a parade wound its way down Main Street with hot chocolate available to onlookers.
The parade was little, but it was spectacular, Mrs. Lashua said.
Due to the heavy snow, the fire and rescue squads from neighboring villages and towns were unable to attend the parade, but Mrs. Lashua said Heuveltons own volunteer fire department made an appearance.
The parade was also beefed up by trucks from the town and village and, Mrs. Lashua said, lasted about half an hour.
We were able to take our time, she said. Instead of throwing candy, we gave out handfuls.
Mrs. Lashua highlighted one float, by the Friot family, that included a miniature water tower and ice skating rink.
It was really quite something, Mrs. Lashua said.
Following the parade were fireworks, which Mrs. Lashua said she viewed from the roof of Pickens Hall, where there was also live entertainment inside.
It was a nice family event, Mrs. Lashua said of the centennial celebration. The really special part of it was how often you would see generations of families all spending the afternoon and evening together.

This answer might vary between types of chillies, but I'm curious to know when they're hottest.
McGee writes: "Capsaicin appears to accumulate in the fruit concurrently with the pigment during ripening". (On Food and Cooking, p.212)
So yes, chilis get hotter as they ripen (that is, as they turn from green to red). Many chili varieties are picked and sold in stores while still unripe and green (e.g. jalapeño, serrano, poblano), but you will occasionally see ripe, red ones in stores.
All of the dried chilis I've seen in stores have been completely ripened before drying (e.g. chipotles, which are smoked, dried red jalapeños and anchos, which are dried, red poblano peppers).
I've personally observed this effect with padron peppers, which are usually picked green and mild, but can ripen to red, hot peppers if left on the plant.
I know this is an old post, but had to reply. I grew jalapenos this year, and the heat difference between green and fully-ripened red is astounding. The green jalapenos had a very, well, green flavor like that of a green bell pepper, but with a mild heat.
After reading a lot of posts around the web, that almost all seem to say that peppers get "smoother" as they ripen, I interpreted that as meaning that the heat wouldn't increase. My interpretation was faulty! The red, ripened pepper was many, many times hotter than the green. I wasn't expecting that burst of flavor when I popped a slice of pepper in my mouth to experience the "smoothness" of the ripe pepper!
I can't tell you the science behind it, but I can verify that, at least in my garden and with my jalapenos, the ripe peppers are far hotter than the green.
Not really. The chemical that gives chillies their heat is called capsaicin. It is an extremely stable alkaloid, and so remains potent even after a long period of time: note, for example that dried chillies and even chilli flakes are still hot.
Most chiles become more picante as they ripen. But they also become much sweeter. Jalapenos are a good example. Red jalapenos are much more delicious than green ones. Most of the 'heat' is in the seeds and the tissue connecting the seeds to the capsule. You can pare those parts out with a small knife. I eat most of my ripe jalapenos right in the garden, pocket knife in hand!

The Weiser Field Guide to Witches, by Judika Illes
By Lili Saintcrow | Leave a comment
The Weiser Field Guide to Witches, by Judika Illes Weiser Books, 9781578634798, 272 pp., 2010When a field guide is well done, it gives the reader the means to distinguish between species and can be an incredible aid to study, classification, and practical knowledge. When a field guide is not so well done, it can very quickly become a mess.I really wanted to like The Weiser Field Guide to Witches. For one thing, I like and admire Judika Illes, whose Element Encyclopedias I consider useful as well as beautiful, well-researched, and wonderfully organized. I was prepared to thoroughly enjoy spending more time with her blend of wit and erudition. The subtitle, "From Hexes to Hermione Granger, from Salem to the Land of Oz", is marvellously enticing, as well as the idea given in the back cover copy that the field guide could help you, the reader, discern if you are a witch.

Accuracy is overrated! In this BrainPOP movie, Tim and Moby will show you that sometimes, being almost right is good enough. Discover what an estimate is as well as when it's a good idea to make an estimate. Tim will show you why estimating may be the most useful skill you learn in math class, and how it's different than just plain old guesswork. You'll learn how to estimate your budget, your time, and how far you have to travel. You'll also find out how a map scale can be useful, and how to use one when estimating the distance from one place to another. Next, Tim will show you how to estimate the straight-line distance between two spots. You'll even learn how to estimate circular distances! Watch and see why close is often good enough.
