The present invention relates to hot melt glue binding, and more particularly concerns such binding which offers maximum adaptability and flexibility in home or office preparation of the front cover and thickness of bound documents.
Presently known glue binders for home or office use generally employ pre-formed front and back covers having a spine or backbone bearing hot melt glue, or provide only a glue bearing spine strip. Typical of such binders are the arrangements illustrated in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,371,194 to Wang, et al, 4,471,976 to Giulie, 4,129,471 to Rome, and 4,496,617 to Parker. The Parker patent employs only a backbone strip having bands of hot melt glue adapted to cover and connect to the back edges of the sheets to be bound and also has hot melt glue bands that are adapted to be secured to the topmost and bottommost sheets of the stack, which then serve as front and back cover sheets of the bound volume. The arrangements of the Wang et al, Giulie and Rome patents, on the other hand, provide binders having complete front and back covers which form the outer covers of the completed bound document. Of these, the patent to Wang et al provides for variable thickness of bound documents by providing a variable width foldable spine. If the spine is folded to accept a smaller stack of documents, one of the covers inherently becomes wider, and thus Wang et al must provide for folding of a cover end remote from the spine, to eliminate this increase in cover width and to obtain a more regular finished document.
A major drawback of the arrangements of Rome, Wang et al and Giulie is that the cover sheets are an integral part of the binder, and there is thus little flexibility in choice of cover or in ability to process the cover. The patent to Parker addresses this problem by providing no covers for the binder but rather arranging the spine with several spaced bands of precisely configured and positioned hot melt glue so that a central glue band will adhere to and bind back edges of the document, and two additional side glue bands on either side of the central band will simultaneously adhere to the top and bottom sheets of the stack of documents being bound. The glue is conventional hot melt adhesive, and thus the entire stack, including the top and bottom sheets which form front and back covers, must be bound together, all at the same time. A more significant problem with the arrangement of Parker, which is discussed at length in the patent itself, is the difficulty of ensuring that the binder strip, or substrate, which carries the hot melt glue will adequately and properly adhere to the top and bottom sheets. The Parker binder requires precision manufacturing with small tolerances of glue strip thicknesses and gaps, and moreover, after manufacturing can fit only one thickness of document which must be precisely matched to the size of the Parker binder strip. In the arrangement of Parker, in order to ensure proper adhesion of the binder strip to the cover, it is essential to carefully control the location and thickness of the glue bands and the gaps between the various glue bands. Failure to meet these precise requirements results in a poor and unacceptable binding. Moreover, the Parker system requires a special, complex and costly machine capable of heating and pressing the spine and both sides of the binder. Thus Parker is not really an in-home or office system.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a hot melt glue binder for home or office use that avoids or minimizes above-mentioned problems.
In carrying out principles of the present invention, in accordance with a preferred embodiment thereof, a binder sheet is formed having a back cover, a spine and a front cover attaching flange. Hot melt adhesive is applied to the spine section, and a separate peel-off pressure sensitive adhesive strip is applied to an edge of the front cover attaching flange. Pages of a document to be bound, excepting only the cover sheet of the bound document, are stacked and pressed against the hot melt adhesive, which, when heated, secures the document sheets to one another and to the binder. A front cover is then separately processed, as a separate individual sheet, to provide appropriate printing, embossing or other ornamentation or indicia thereon and then individually attached to the front cover attaching flange by means of the pressure sensitive adhesive. No further heating is required for attachment of the front cover, and, moreover, the latter may be readily detached and replaced with another front cover, as the pressure sensitive adhesive may be reusable. The hot melt adhesive of the spine is laid down in contiguous glue beads, one or more of which may be separately removed to enable the spine to be folded to a lesser width so as to accommodate a document stack of fewer sheets.
FIG. 1 shows an edge view of an unfolded binder sheet embodying principles of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a pictorial illustration of the binder sheet of FIG. 1, partly folded to enable it to accept a stack of document sheets;
FIG. 3 shows the binder strip with a front cover about to be attached thereto;
FIG. 4 is an elevation view of a completed bound document; and
FIG. 5 shows a modification of the binder sheet of FIGS. 1 through 4.
As shown in FIG. 1, a binder embodying principles of the present invention, in one embodiment thereof, is made of a substantially rectangular binder sheet 10 formed of a suitably strong material, such as heavy paper, cardboard of appropriate thickness and stiffness, vinyl or like material and includes a back cover section 12, a front cover attaching flange section 14, and an intermediate spine section 16 between sections 12 and 14, all being integral with one another. The spine section is defined in part and separated from the other sections by fold lines in the form of V-shaped grooves 18,20 extending the full height and formed in an outer surface 22 of the sheet 10. The inner surface of the sheet 10, for almost the full width of the spine section 16, and for substantially the entire length thereof has secured thereto a strip of temperature sensitive adhesive in the form of a strip of hot melt glue 26.
Preferably the strip of hot melt glue 26 includes a plurality of immediately contiguous, side-by-side glue beads 28,30,32 separated from one another by V-shaped grooves 34,36. The grooves 34,36 do not extend completely through the glue strip 26, but stop short of the inner surface thereof, which is affixed to spine section 16, to provide very thin, longitudinally extending continuous connecting sections or strips 40,42 between mutually adjacent ones of the individual glue beads. The arrangement is such that individual ones of the glue beads 28,30,32 may be separately removed from the spine and detached from the adjacent glue beads merely by prying up one end of a bead and peeling it from the spine section 16 in an action which severs the very thin connecting sections 40 or 42. In this manner, and for reasons to be described below, the spine can be provided with a glue strip having a smaller number of glue beads, less than the number of such beads originally adhered to the spine, and therefore of less total width. The spine section is also provided on its outer surface 22 with additional V-shaped grooves 46,48 extending partly into the spine, each positioned opposite a corresponding glue strip groove 34,36, respectively.
Front cover attaching flange section 14 is of relatively small width and may be three or four times the width of the spine, but as little as one-fifth or less of the width of the back cover 12. The back cover has a width and length substantially the same as the width and length of sheets to be bound, such as, for example, 81/2 inches�11 inches, but may have a width and length slightly greater than the conventionally sized 81/2�11 sheet to provide a slight extension of the back cover beyond the free edge of pages to be bound.
Securely affixed to the end portion 50 of front cover attaching flange 14 and running for the full length thereof is a strip of peel-off, pressure sensitive adhesive 52, including a strip of adhesive 54 and a protective or peel-off sheet 56. In a presently preferred embodiment the inner end of adhesive strip 52 is spaced from groove 20 by a substantial distance, but less than the width of the spine. This allows for adjustment of front cover width as will be explained below.
The hot melt glue strip 26 is temperature sensitive, of the type well known to those skilled in the art that is very low tack at room temperature. When subjected to increased temperature the hot melt glue strip will soften or melt, and, upon subsequent cooling, secure itself to articles such as edges of document sheets that have been pressed against the glue strip while it is heated. Thus, at room temperature the hot melt glue is relatively rigid, provides good securement, and has little tendency to attach itself to articles or materials not already secured thereto. The pressure sensitive adhesive 52, on the other hand, has a high tack at room temperature and does not operate in response to temperature variations, nor does it require heat for its operation. The pressure sensitive adhesive 54 is provided, as is well known, with a non-stick protective or peel-off cover 56 which prevents the adhesive 54 from attaching itself to objects or articles until the peel-off cover 56 is removed. After removal of the peel-off cover 56, pressing of an object, article or document cover upon the pressure sensitive adhesive will secure the article or cover to the adhesive firmly and securely. Further, as an additional feature of the pressure sensitive adhesive, articles secured thereto by pressure may, with careful manipulation, be detached and reattached or detached and replaced by similar articles, all without addition or application of heat.
In use of the described binder, a binder sheet formed as described above and illustrated in FIG. 1 is partly bent or folded, in the manner shown in FIG. 2, with the spine section 16 being folded relative to the back cover section 12 about score line or V-shaped groove 18, and the front cover attaching flange section 14 being folded relative to the spine about the score line or V-shaped groove 20. This positions both the hot melt glue strip 26 and the pressure sensitive peel-off adhesive strip, with the protective cover 56 still attached, on the inside of the partly folded binder. Now a stack of document pages generally of a size substantially equal to or just smaller than the size of back cover section 12 is inserted into the binder between the back cover section 12 and flange section 14 with all of the edges of the stack of document sheets firmly abutting the glue strip 26. The outside of the spine section 16 is then heated by any suitable means, including conventional well known hot melt glue heaters. When the heat is removed, the document sheets are all secured at their rearmost edges to one another and to the spine 16 by means of the melted and then re-hardened temperature sensitive adhesive strip 26. At this stage of assembly neither the front nor back sheets of the stack of documents is secured directly to either the back cover section 12 or to the front cover attaching flange section 14. Now a suitable cover sheet 60 may be selected, processed as desired, on any small in-home or office equipment, and then attached to the front cover attaching flange section 14. This is done merely by peeling off the protective strip 56 to expose the surface of pressure sensitive adhesive 54 and pressing an edge portion of the independently and separately processed cover sheet 60 against the pressure sensitive adhesive to securely affix front cover 60 to flange 14, and thus to the previously bound document. It will be readily appreciated, of course, that the order of attachment of cover sheet and document sheets may be reversed so that the front cover sheet 60 may be first attached to the flange 14 by means of the pressure sensitive adhesive and then the document pages may be inserted in the binder and attached to the spine by means of heating and then cooling of the temperature sensitive glue strip 26. In either case the front cover sheet can be separately and independently processed for attachment to the binder.
It is important to emphasize that the front cover is but a single sheet of approximately document size, which may be in the order of or slightly larger than 81/2 inches�11 inches, for example, and may be readily processed as such as a separate single sheet in any suitable manner and by any one of the many types of equipment commonly available in home or office.
There is presently widely available a variety of inexpensive so called desk-top publishing equipment for use in home or office, as distinguished from a factory type environment, which is revolutionizing printing and pre-production capabilities of large and small businesses, leading to profound changes in office practices everywhere. High volume generic product service and sales literature print jobs are being replaced by numerous customized small job productions aimed at specific groups and clients, promising a more effective flow of pertinent information, and resulting in substantial economies and improved market efficiencies. Such in-office or in-home publishing equipment includes desk-top computer driven printers, enlarging and reducing color copiers, small laminators, foil applying, stamping and embossing machines. Although such in-office equipment or in-home equipment provide a variety of different types of processing to provide a variety of different types of indicia on a sheet of paper of a single front cover, there is one major limitation that is common to many different types of this equipment. This limitation is the fact that the machines can handle only a single sheet of paper of conventional size and are not capable of handling a full size binder, such as would normally include both front and back covers and an interconnecting document spine. Thus presently available in-office or in-home publishing equipment can be readily, efficiently and inexpensively applied for manufacture of customized documents, even in small quantities, provided only that the binding arrangement permits use of a front cover that can be processed separately, apart from the remainder of the binder.
According to an important feature of the present invention, the front cover need not be attached to the binder at the same time that the document pages are attached to the binder, and, moreover, can be later detached from the binder and replaced, since the pressure sensitive adhesive for attaching the front cover can be reused. Thus a number of documents may be prepared, completely bound excepting only for lack of a front cover, stacked, stored, handled or transported to remote locations and then individual cover sheets may be applied to different ones or different groups of such pre-formed and prebound documents at the same or remote locations, or at different times, as deemed necessary or appropriate. The entire document can be prepared in large quantities, and selection of one cover or different types of covers for different groups of the pre-prepared documents may be made at a later time or at a different location. Further, having completely bound a document and attached a given cover, the latter may be changed simply by detaching the first cover from the pressure sensitive adhesive, processing a substitute cover as desired, and then attaching the substitute cover to the same strip of pressure sensitive adhesive.
As previously mentioned, the temperature sensitive glue strip 26 is formed into separate but continuously longitudinally interconnected beads, each of which can be individually removed from the spine 16 and detached from an adjacent bead along the very thin relatively weak connecting portions 40 or 42. Moreover, the spine is additionally scored, as at 46 and 48, at points directly opposite the respective glue strip scores 34,36. Thus the spine 16 may be made with a width capable of accommodating a relatively large number of sheets, and, when such a large number of sheets is bound and the binding completed, the completed document will appears as illustrated in the elevational view of FIG. 4, wherein the flange 14 is folded relative to spine 16 about the fold or score line 20, and back cover 12 is folded relative to the spine about the score line 18.
The described arrangement, even though capable of use with a thick document, will readily accommodate efficient binding of a thinner document merely by removing one of the endmost glue beads, such as glue bead 28, for example, and then folding the flange 14 relative to the spine 16 about the intermediate spine score line 46, rather than score line 20. Removal of the glue bead 28 significantly facilitates folding of the binder about the intermediate score line 46. Without such removal of the endmost glue bead, folding of the spine about the intermediate score line 46 would be difficult, and, at best, would result in a dislocation of the corner of the bound document at this point.
It will be readily appreciated that the spine may be made with two, three, four or more individual beads of temperature sensitive adhesive, all mutually continuous along their inner surfaces, but all provided with separable score lines or V-shaped grooves such as those indicated at 34 and 36 in FIG. 1. Thus, in manufacture of the described binder, a single size may be produced and will readily fit a final bound document of any one of many different thicknesses.
Where one or more of the glue beads is removed for binding of a document of fewer sheets, the effective width of flange 14 is increased by the total width of the glue beads that have been removed, with the spine now being bent along one of the intermediate spine grooves, such as groove 46 or 48. The additional effective width of the front cover attaching flange is readily accommodated, without change of front cover sheet width, merely by changing the relative position of the innermost end of the front cover sheet with respect to the spine. As can be seen in FIG. 4, the innermost edge 64 of the front cover projects inwardly of the inner edge 66 of the peel off adhesive strip 54. The amount of this projection is readily varied during attachment of the cover sheet to the flange. The same size front cover sheet is readily employed with documents of different thicknesses. As previously indicated, a different width of cover sheet required by different spine width for variation of documents of different thicknesses is accomplished by the amount by which the front cover attaching flange 14 overlaps the inner edge 64 of the front cover. It is not required, with such an arrangement, to either cut or fold the free edge of the front cover. Thus the free edge of the front cover can be positioned relative to the free edge of the back cover or the free edges of the bound document pages in the same relation regardless of the thickness of the document and without changing front cover width. Variation of the effective width of the flange is accommodated merely by varying the degree of overlap between the flange and the inner edge portion of the front cover.
If deemed necessary or desirable, the front cover can be manufactured as an integral part of the binder, as illustrated in FIG. 5. A binder sheet having a front cover attaching flange 114 and pressure sensitive adhesive strip 152 connected to a spine section 116 and a full width back cover section 112, are all substantially the same as described in connection with the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 4. In the embodiment of FIG. 5, however, an integral front cover sheet 160 is provided. Front cover 160 is formed integrally with the front cover attaching flange section 114 and separated therefrom by a score line 202 in the form of a V-shaped groove or line of perforations (not shown) or the like that facilitates ready separation of front cover sheet 160 from the flange 114. Separation line 202 is formed at the forward or free edge of adhesive strip 152 and extends for the full length of the binder sheet, from the top of the sheet to the bottom of the sheet, to enable ready and complete separation of the cover sheet 160 from the rest of the binder.
In use of the arrangement of FIG. 5, the totally pre-formed binder sheet is manufactured with the integrally attached but readily separable front cover sheet. For binding of a document the front cover sheet 160 is removed by separating it from the flange 114 along the separation line 202, and then the document is assembled and bound by hot melt glue strip 126 just as described in connection with the embodiment of FIGS. 1 through 4. The front cover sheet 160, after separation from the remainder of the binder, may be separately and individually processed to provide front cover indicia by any suitable processing means, including various in-office or in-home desk top publishing devices, copiers, embossers, laminators or foil application machines as appropriate. After processing of the separated front cover 160, it is then re-attached to the flange 114 by means of the pressure sensitive adhesive 152. An advantage of this arrangement is the fact that a front cover sheet of appropriate material, rigidity, and consistency is readily available at all times with the binder. Moreover, the user has the option of using the front cover sheet that is provided with the binder or merely detaching this integral front cover sheet 160 and discarding it to be replaced by some other sheet at the desire of the user. Preferably the width of the front cover sheet is sufficiently great to accommodate the necessary amount of overlap of the inner edge of the front cover with the front cover attaching flange as previously described. The effective width of this front cover sheet is varied for bound documents of different thicknesses by adjusting the amount of overlap between the front cover and the pressure sensitive adhesive strip.
There have been described binding apparatus and techniques for preparing customized documents which are specifically and readily adaptable for use of in-home or in-office single sheet processing machines to provide bound documents with individually customized and replaceable front covers and which, moreover, are readily adapted to the binding of documents of a variety of different thicknesses.
The foregoing detailed description is to be clearly understood as given by way of illustration and example only, the spirit and scope of this invention being limited solely by the appended claims.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Arizona Diamondbacks' Aaron Hill improved, available if needed
PHOENIX – Aaron Hill tried, but in the end the Arizona Diamondbacks starting second baseman failed to convince his manager to insert him in the lineup for the series opener against the San Diego Padres on Monday.
"He's good. He texted me and wanted to play," manager Kirk Gibson said.
Hill had left the second game of Sunday's doubleheader against the New York Mets for precautionary reasons after fouling a ball off his left ankle.
"I talked to (head athletic trainer) Ken (Crenshaw) today and all things considered, we're going to give him another day. He's available (to play). I'm sure he's going to hit in the cage," Gibson said. "He had a pretty big knot on there and actually he could play the field okay, but the hitting really bothered him, so we're going to give him another day to get some more inflammation out of there."
Hill, who was 2-for-8 with a double and two runs scored in the three games against the Mets, was not wearing his shin guard as he normally does.
"Maybe he's convinced he should wear his pad all the time now," Gibson said with a smile. "Actually, he says when he starts hitting balls like that then that's a good sign. He's starting to get the head (of the bat) out and that's what happens, so he's going to have to start wearing that more consistently."
It's been a rough couple of weeks for Hill. He missed three games due to a sore shoulder last week. The ankle, though, is not expected to keep him sidelined for any extended time.
"(Crenshaw is) comfortable we're headed in the right direction," Gibson said.

In July of last year, senators gathered in a wood-paneled hearing room and saw something they had likely never seen before: a black man at the witness table who, 20 years previously, had been a woman. He testified about how, before his sex-change surgery, he had been escorted by police out of women's bathrooms and stripped to "prove" he could be there. He talked of how he was fired from one of his first jobs (in finance) six months after he announced that he was transitioning from woman to man.
But the most important part of Kaylar Broadus's appearance before the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee on that summer morning wasn't anything he said. His mere presence at the witness table, at the invitation of committee Chairman Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, was the signal to the gay, lesbian, and transgender community that they could go all out in promoting the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, a bill that bars workplace discrimination against them. Various versions of the legislation have been around since 1974.
The Senate passed it 64-32 Thursday.
Congressional aides point to that Senate hearing as a key moment in turning the tide in favor of legislation that had seen zero action since the House passed a similar bill in 2007. The Senate hearing signaled to gay-rights activists that this time around, they didn't have to worry about revolt within their ranks over transgender coverage, always a sticky point for squeamish lawmakers.
"Transgender freaks people out," admitted one gay-rights advocate. By contrast, nine out of 10 people personally know someone who is gay.
The House bill was embroiled in controversy from the get-go because it deliberately excluded transgender people in order to win "yes" votes from moderate Democrats in districts that had backed President Bush in the 2006 election. The exclusion angered gay-rights activists to the point of revolt. Their complaints led then-Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., who is gay, to hold an infamous press conference in which he spent 45 minutes lecturing advocates about the benefits of having House members vote on tough legislation that actually passes. "These guys need to get used to voting on this," he said.
Gay-rights advocates never forgot that moment. After the 2007 bill died in the Senate, they decided they wanted all or nothing on ENDA. Nothing was all what they got for five years, and the wounds were still smarting when Harkin convened the 2012 hearing.
Broadus's testimony effectively healed them — and activists got to work, spending much of the next year and a half in the field. They targeted grassroots messages to senators in red and purple states that their internal polling showed as the most gay-friendly: New Hampshire, West Virginia, Ohio, Arizona, Arkansas, Nevada, and Pennsylvania.
The Human Rights Campaign spent $2 million in these states, generating more than 162,000 emails, 80,000 postcards, 15,000 calls, and 1,000 letters.
The advocates made sure that the senators on their "gettable" list knew that they would not be penalized from the right for their support. The Human Rights Campaign circulated an extensive report showing that not one Republican state legislator had ever lost reelection because he or she voted for a state nondiscrimination law.
The tactic worked. Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, cited the gay outreach as main reason she decided to support the bill when Harkin's committee passed it in July. Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, also voted for it.
Congressional aides say Hatch was one of the most influential members in the GOP caucus on the bill. He waited until the day before the committee's vote to let Harkin know of his support. He wanted to be sure it struck the appropriate balance between nondiscrimination for the LGBT community and protection for religious groups, according to his aides. To get there, Hatch's staffers did lengthy legal review of every employment nondiscrimination bill that had ever been introduced. The exercise was particularly important because Hatch, one of the Senate's longest-serving members, had voted against ENDA in 1996. He wanted to be sure he could explain why he switched.
As it turned out, Hatch's explanation gave several religious senators, including Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev., a reason to vote for the bill. Hatch said that the Senate's version of ENDA went further in terms of religious exemptions than a Salt Lake City LGBT nondiscrimination ordinance that had been endorsed by the Mormon Church. Both Hatch and Heller are Mormon. Hatch also made it clear to a host of other religious groups that the bill would do nothing to impede their activities. Because Hatch was the sponsor of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act in 1993, his word carried some weight.
But it wasn't Hatch — or even Heller, who this week gave supporters a solid 60 votes — that aides identified as the moment when they knew the bill would pass in the Senate. It was the deafening silence from Senate opponents in the committee markup, which was highly unusual for a meaty, controversial bill. Several Republicans had prepared amendments to it when the panel convened, but without explanation they declined to offer them. The bill passed quickly with nary a peep.
"You always worry about amendments, as you know. But it was pleasantly surprising to me that we brought it up and it passed in five minutes. No amendments. Nothing," Harkin told National Journal Daily.
The radio silence from opponents continued on the floor; debate seemed pointless when the House won't take up the bill.
Advocates have a different take on the noticeable lack of public protest. They say it's easier to vote against nondiscrimination when you don't have to explain it, especially if that explanation will be forever preserved in the Congressional Record.

The Republicans you heard chanting "build that wall!" last week in Cleveland are in the minority, a new poll from Gallup finds. While 62 percent of Republicans favor building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, just 33 percent of Americans hold that view. Conversely, 84 percent of Americans, including 76 percent of Republicans, favor allowing those living in the U.S. without proper documentation to become citizens "if they meet certain requirements over a period of time."
According to a new CNN/ORC poll, Donald Trump emerged from the GOP convention "ahead of Hillary Clinton in the race for the White House, topping her 44% to 39% in a four-way matchup including Gary Johnson (9%) and Jill Stein (3%) and by three points in a two-way head-to-head, 48% to 45%. That latter finding represents a 6-point convention bounce for Trump, which are traditionally measured in two-way matchups." Meanwhile, a Morning Consult poll shows Trump leading by four points nationally. He had been down two points in the same poll a week ago.
As the Democratic National Convention gets underway today in Philadelphia, some prominent Democratic candidates for U.S. Senate are nowhere to be found. "At least four candidates in major races are opting out, including Russ Feingold, who is challengingSen. Ron Johnson in Wisconsin; Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick, who is taking on Sen. John McCain in Arizona; Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander, who is running against Sen. Roy Blunt; and Catherine Cortez Masto, who is battling Rep. Joe Heck in Nevada for the seat vacated by retiring Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid." The candidates have stated their decisions aren't motivated by a desire to avoid being tied to the Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
Michael Bloomberg will endorse Hillary Clinton this week in a prime-time speech. "The news is an unexpected move from Mr. Bloomberg, who has not been a member of the Democratic Party since 2000; was elected the mayor of New York City as a Republican; and later became an independent. But it reflects Mr. Bloomberg's increasing dismay about the rise of Donald J. Trump and a determination to see that the Republican nominee is defeated."

Keywords: BEACH FRONT HOME ON NORTH CAPTIVA ISLAND.
We are located on the northern tip of the island...just a small sandy path.
There are 4 acres of private undeveloped land to the back of the home filled with wildlife ..this makes our home very private and quiet!!!
To the front of our home is the Gulf of Mexico, just 30 steps and you are in.
We are true owner operators... 24/7 ....we greet and check out all our guest.... we also clean and maintain the home when you arrive the home is spotless . when traveling to a barrier island a beach front rental is a must ,not to miss the true island experience. The Gulf of Mexico has a show on all day. give us a call or email we would love to have you visit!!!!!!!
Mary Beth & Glenn
We were born and raised in Philadelphia and spent our summers at the Jersey Shore.
That is where our love for the beach started
We have three children all boys and two grand-babies.
1997 we purchased Gulf Coast Recycling and made Lee County our home.
We also own a small barging company for the barrier islands.
Mary Beth D'angelo purchased this house in 2011
While visiting our friends in Naples (1987) we noticed a small ad in the local newspaper that said REMEMBER WHEN next thing I know we are on a boat to North Captiva Island.It was love a first sight,that week we purchased two lots and a boat dock, and have been property owners since. In 1991 we met June, who we purchased a boat from and found we had something in common North Captiva Island.For the next twenty years we helped June maintain her home, and had many happy memories staying at Rainbows End. June became ill in 2009, and after two years decided to sell her home to us. We were happy be to given the chance to purchased Rainbows End and will continue to make it a great place to visit. This home has a twenty year rental program with clients returning each year! Come and make you own memories! We would love to have you.
IT is all about the beach!
We are located on the North tip of the island.
Kingfisher Drive takes a sharp left when it meets the shore line, with only 7 homes on our sandy path. With four acres of undeveloped private property to the back of our home filled with wildlife,and the Gulf of Mexico to the front,you can take 30 steps to the waters edge. It is private and very peaceful here. Sit on our porch,gaze at the water and relax. Our motto is if you are coming to the beach you must stay on the beach! See you soon!
This is the most perfect place. The beach is private and sandy with gorgeous shells. The wildlife is everywhere and up close. The house is clean, bright and really well appointed. Oh and Mary Beth gives you all the info you need to make your stay comfortable. Just follow her directions and you can't go wrong. My only mistake was only booking a week.
We just spent Christmas at Rainbow's End. It was a magical time for us. Mary Beth decorated the house for Christmas for us! It was beautiful!!! Had a Christmas tree in the master bedroom☺ Mary Beth was wonderful in helping us through our first time visit to North Captiva Island. She gave us great advice in packing! less clothes and more food. Absolutely correct! She was always accessible to answer questions. She was there at the marina waiting for us and pitched right in to unload us and get us to the house and then helped unload! She's a dynamo in a petite sized package. The house is wonderful. Mary Beth gives this house lots of TLC. It's well maintained and immaculate! The kitchen is well equipped and organized. The location is by far one of the best on the island. The beach is very private and natural. We had a ball getting around in the golf cart. Even Lily (our lab) enjoyed the rides. You have to use the outdoor shower!!! The water pressure was great!!! And roomy. Our favorite spot was the screened in porch looking out over the water. We had most of our meals out there where we could enjoy the sound of the waves coming in on the beach. Lily LOVED the porch! She spent almost all of her time out there. The only thing we were not well prepared for was bugs. We went out at dusk our first night and were the main course for dinner for sand fleas and mosquitos. They are fierce! Bring plenty of bug spray! . We hope to return to North Captiva Island. The island experience was a wonderful adventure. Thanks Nary Beth for a great Christmas!
Rainbow's End is the cleanest house I've ever seen, and that's saying a lot. The VRBO photos are accurate, but they do not do the house justice, and working with Mary Beth was great. Our week at Rainbow's End on North Captiva was the best week I've ever spent on vacation, period. I will echo other reviews: plan your meals, take twice the food you think you ought, and half the clothes. Honestly, I wore swim trunks or a pair of shorts, a T-shirt, and a straw hat the whole week. What a delight! It was astonishing, too, how quickly the sound of an internal combustion engine became irksome to me (and I am no tree-hugger!). Our trip was filled with driving the electric golf cart on those sandy roads, exploring the island, walking the beaches, watching the wildlife (this includes dolphins-a-plenty and manatees), and lowering my blood pressure. I've vacationed in Florida many years in many places, but this is the only one where I've actually considered buying a house. I would not hesitate to buy Rainbow's End, if it ever came on the market and I could swing it. :-) One cautionary word: If you decide to take the beautiful and quiet, 6+ mile round-trip hike to the south end of the island, TAKE PLENTY OF WATER.
The moment we arrived at Rainbows End we knew we had found paradise! From the comfy, and wonderfully decorated interior to the screened outdoor porch and side deck, we were hooked. The website pics are spot-on, but can't convey the wonderful feeling you get when you actually arrive on that deck! It was most difficult to pry ourselves from that deck... not only did we take up positions in the 2 lounge chairs, watching for frolicking dolphin, soaring osprey and the ponderous but graceful pelicans, but also watching the ebb and flow of the Gulf meeting the bay, in front of the house. Sunrises brought out shore birds, and shell hunting, and the sunsets, were magnificent. We explored many of the island laneways by golf cart, walked the beaches and kayaked the bay and dock areas – even viewing manatees up close and personal in the cove. Surprisingly, we ended up dining in for all meals, using up most of our groceries and even had to take a ferry ride (NCR) to Pine Island mid week for additional supplies. But this was an adventure also! If you are looking for sun, sand, and surf and total relaxation, this is the place for you. This was our first VRBO rental. And we are happy to report that Rainbow's End is immaculate, fully equipped and positioned at the best spot on the island. From our first inquiry, Mary Beth was responsive and very helpful. (Remember, you're not going to Orlando here!) She fully prepared us for the trip, explaining how one gets to North Captiva, advising us to get ferry reservations early and to make arrangements with the Publix market for provisions to bring with us (there is virtually nothing available on North Captiva itself). Having now spent a fabulous week there, the two best tips we can offer anyone considering a visit to Rainbows End are: 1) do it! and, 2) take half the clothes you think you'll need – and twice the food (and drink)!
We will be back!
Thank you Mary Beth and Glen, for sharing your bit of paradise with us.
If the # of beds fits for you, this is the home to rent! Our family of 4 with 2 kids (3 and 5 yo) stayed for one week. Had no idea that this amazing place exists right off the Gulf coast of Florida - small island with no paved roads, everyone travelling by foot, golf cart, bicycle, kayak, motorboat, or small airplane, surrounded by wildlife including countless osprey, pelicans, dolphins, and the occasional jumping ray, just 30 min by ferry from the mainland.
And Mary Beth's vacation home is the perfect place from which to experience it all - clean, organized, relaxed. She provides all the necessary paper goods; make sure to bring your own condiments, cooking oil, and any other staples, food & drink including water. Can get fresh seafood from Boats & Fun or have Andy's Island Seafood deliver by ferry during your stay. Definitely take advantage of the outdoor shower!
Explored many secluded and deserted beaches; still most beautiful section of beach is right in front of the home - convenient too! The island is small and sparsely inhabited, so with a quick trip on the golf cart, you can get to Barnacle's for ice cream, or to the North Captiva Island Club to use their bikes or kayaks, or swim at the pool and enjoy the poolside bar. At Boats & Fun, a separate business next door to NCIC, you can rent a motorboat to go to Cayo Costa State Park, Cabbage Key, or Boca Grande - highly recommend renting a boat once or twice during your week along with a fishing pole or two. Based on rec's from the staff, we anchored in a cove at Cayo Costa to fish - caught 3 catfish in <10 minutes and watched dolphin swim in the cove. Also, for guaranteed dolphin spotting, hang out in the water around Cabbage Key.
On the island, we awoke to the occasional pod of dolphins in view as we ate breakfast. Parked our golf cart one day at the entrance to the to the nature preserve that encompasses 2/3 of the island and hiked the long sandy path until we reached the secluded beach on the other end. A few things to note when you do this activity: minimal tree cover along the way; bring plenty of water as the temps are also 10+degrees warmer than at the house; there's a path that splits off fairly early on toward the right that will also take you to the beach. If you make it to the end of the path you'll need to return the way you came; can't walk along the beach back to the entrance.
Conclusion: Rent this house, stay for at least a week, have a fantastic time - it's impossible not to!
This truly is the best place on the island. The home is so comfortable, clean, and bright. We loved the screened porch and relaxed while watching fishing boats during the day and the sunsets at night. We loved being that incredibly close to our own private beach. Everyday there was something new to see on the beach or in the water; dolphins, manatee, birds, shells. Mary Beth and Glenn have this home so well-stocked, we settled in quite nicely. They were very helpful with grocery and transportation suggestions, and showing us around the property. They were right, there is nothing quite like an outdoor shower! This was one of our best vacations ever and had a very hard time leaving it. Cozy home, beautiful beach, peaceful island...we will be back. We wouldn't want to stay anywhere else.

This is a nice summary of a complex political accomplishment. Eli Kirk Price's account, which is a good contemporary source on this topic, spins the positive aspects of consolidation. There was a downside, however. Consolidation was driven in part by antidemocratic fears of working people. The empowerment of an ever larger police force was part of the effort of the city's elites to control the lower orders and to keep them from forming workers associations that might challenge the emerging capitalist order.
Fantastic article, thanks!
Fantastic article about a piece of history I have always wondered about. Thanks for offering us a well-written glimpse into how these events unfolded.
Thanks so much for this article, so much new history is coming to light for me! In addition to a lot of the crime from township to township that you mentioned, wasn't another incentive for consolidation due the city losing money from workers commuting to Philadelphia from surrounding townships, and thus not being obligated to pay taxes back to the city?
Really well-done, well-researched article. I was not aware of the German-Irish tensions in areas "outside" of Philadelphia during this time.
Very interesting and clear summary of what could have been a complicated story. Thanks for a super job.

You should buy a guide book and pour yourself into it - I like the Rough Guide but there's a new Lonely Planet coming out next month, I believe.
Look for my recent travelogue for places I enjoyed. Happy trails!

I would suggest you viist Tikal mayan ruins and Flores, Lake Atilian and the surroundings and the market at ChiChi. Antigua is a lovely colonial town about 40 minutes from Guat city. In the area of the Rio Dulce check out Livingston and Quiriguá, a site of Mayan ruins.

I only made it to Tikal/Flores...but both are stunning, particularly the remote-ness of Tikal and the wildlife/plantlife. Truly in the middle of the jungle, highly recommend it!

To get the lowdown on the new report on the University of Minnesota's Academic Health Center, I spoke with Dr. Russell Luepker. He's a Mayo Professor of Public Health and came to the medical school in 1976, "when we were in the top 20." But since then, "we have gradually fallen in the rankings. And everyone in the country knows it, unfortunately. Something has to be done."
He praised the report for noting the friction with Fairview, the importance of involving faculty in planning and the need for greater transparency.
Luepker notes that much of the talk about "structure" is really a Minnesotan way to approach a tougher conversation.
"Do we have the right people? The right leadership and visionary leadership?

Holland, Bobkov head to Syracuse
Ducks prospects Peter Holland and Igor Bobkov could get a quick look at the club's American Hockey League affiliate in Syracuse as they signed amateur tryout contracts with the Crunch.

[caption id="attachment_62385" align="alignright" width="100" caption="Holland"][/caption]
The Crunch have three games remaining in their season as they have consecutive home contests against the Norfolk Admirals on Thursday and Saturday and finished their 2010-11 schedule at Hershey against the Bears. At 32-38-7, Syracuse has already been eliminated from Calder Cup competition.
Holland, 20, finished third on the Guelph Storm and 10th overall in the Ontario Hockey League with 88 points (37 goals, 51 assists). The 6-foot-2 center, who was the Ducks' top draft pick in 2009, had three goals and seven assists in the Storm's first-round playoff loss to the Saginaw Spirit in six games.
Bobkov, 20, served as the backup goalie for the London Knights this season and went 4-10-0 with a 4.12 goals-against average and an .874 save percentage. He helped Russia win a gold medal at the most recent World Junior Championships in Buffalo.
