We loved this house. it has everything you could possibly need.
Our son was married on Johns Island at Holy Spirit Catholic Church on June 11th. This house was large enough to accommodate myself, husband, son and 7 groomsmen. They had a blast. With the well stocked kitchen I was able to prepare food for all and to also prepare for the rehearsal dinner which was held at Cinder Creek Pavilion in Kiawah. We had 125 people come to this wedding and everyone wanted to come check out our house. It was loved by all. The hot tub was so inviting and I was able to enjoy once everything was over. The owners had a well stocked garage with bicycles and kayaks, life vests, beach chairs. You name it this house has it. Again thanks to Peter for being a great host and checking in to make sure everything was going well. The lightening and sound system was awesome. My husband being an electrician just found it wonderful. Again thanks for a memorable event.
Our family of 4 plus extended family (totaling 2 children and 6 adults) really enjoyed every minute at this house. The layout is extremely spacious and comfortable, and we really felt like we were staying in a friend's home, not just a rental. We loved being so close to the Club House (pool) and beach access, and the hot tub on the back porch was fabulous. Every amenity you could wish for is provided for at the house, and I would recommend this property to anyone. Thank you Peter and Peggy!
Our family spent a week on Seabrook to celebrate my parent's 50th Wedding Anniversary, and this home was perfect! Six adults and two teenagers - plenty of room and very comfortable. All of the previous reviews are accurate - from the well-appointed kitchen and entertainment centers, to the convenience of supplying bicycles and kayaks. Peter (the homeowner) is a thoughtful and generous host. He was attentive with details prior to our arrival, and checked-in with us on occasion to ensure everything was going well. He even assisted with securing prime Tee Times for the golfers in our group - much appreciated!! If you are visiting the Charleston area, definitely check to see if this house is available! Hopefully it wont be during the same week we plan to visit again, as we will be looking to return!
Four generations of our family (9yrs-80s) stayed in this wonderful home during the week leading up to the 4th of July. All of the other reviews here are spot on. Peter and Peggy are gracious hosts, providing every amenity you can think of including bikes, beach supplies, kayaks, every kitchen utensil you could ever need, top quality bedding and towels, the hot tub, grill and more. The home is beautiful, comfortable, and has several "living" spaces so you never feel like you're on top of each other. The owners are very responsive to any question or need. We had an issue with the refrigerator during our stay and the owners promptly took care of it with no disturbance to our plans. The beach is an easy bike ride away, and we took advantage of the pool and beach club access nearly every day. We feel lucky to have found the home and hope to come back again soon!
We have vacationed each summer at Seabrook for several years, but this year we needed a larger home to accommodate 3-generations (ages 20-81) and our 20 lb. Snorkie. Peter and Peggie's home was the perfect home. Because it was fully furnished and so comfortable, it was more like borrowing a home from a friend than booking a vacation property. The home a has a great layout and numerous amenities: home theater system, surround sound, hot tub, bikes, kayaks, beach equipment, and more. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed several great shrimp boils (fresh shrimp from Cherry Point) and celebrated our daughter's birthday during our stay. We had plenty of room and the home is much larger than the photos represent. Of specific note: the mattresses were the BEST we have ever slept on while on vacation. We even came home and purchased one for ourselves. Peter was very pleasant to work with in making our reservations and coordinating our arrival. The home was extremely clean and well maintained. We highly recommend this property and look forward to returning again.
25 miles from historic downtown Charleston's restaurants, nightlife, shopping and sight seeing.

Vt. town-village merger proposal tabledThe Associated Press | October 04,2013BELLOWS FALLS - A plan to merge the Vermont village of Bellows Falls with the town of Rockingham in 2014 has hit a delay.
The proposal would eliminate the Bellows Falls Village Corporation and the Board of Trustees, which would be turned over to the Rockingham Select Board.
Village services, such as police and fire departments, would continue to be supported by village residents through separate fees or taxes.
The Eagle Times reported that some committee members said the plan doesn't include any details on the financial impact of the merge. It also doesn't specify any benefits for the town or village.
Some Bellows Falls trustees felt the plan lacked enough information to bring it to a public hearing.
The proposal has been tabled for now.MORE IN This Just InHUBBARDTON Vermont State Police said a fallen tree struck and killed a man on the north end of...

Myself,partner and teenage son stayed here in the summer of 2014,unfortunately it was only one night, wished we had stayed longer! The owner and staff(mainly a family business) were friendly, very attentive and helpful. The spacious room, which had an adjoining room for my son and on-suite bathroom, was extremely clean,comfortable beds and generally well cared for. Very well painted pictures adorned the walls depicting local scenery,
We had an excellent home-cooked evening meal and breakfast. It has its own bar and you can sit outside in the pretty garden area and be served,snacks too.
You are only 5 mins walk from the lovely beach and there is free parking . It also has a lift which is helpful, even though there is only one flight of stairs.
This is a nice well kept family run place and we would not hesitate in returning.
Apologies(I took them too quickly) for some of the photos, they do not really show the proper size of the bedrooms, but hopefully they will give you... More

I wanted to gather all of my Internet of Things (IOT) blogs into a single blog (that I could later use with my University of San Francisco (USF) Big Data "MBA" course). However as I started to pull these blogs together, I realized that my IOT discussion lacked a vision; it lacked an end point towards which an organization could drive their IOT envisioning, proof of value, app dev, data engineering and data science efforts. And I think that the IOT end point is really quite simple…

It opens with the suicide of Bella Davison (but is that her name?) and the subsequent meeting of her work associates Rachael, Anne and Grace. I'd been drawn to the book by the TV series 'Vera' and instantly recognised my heroine in an uncredited appearance at a funeral on P.62 – '...a woman in her fifties, The first impression was of a bag lady, who'd wandered in from the street. She had a large leather satchel slung across her shoulder and a supermarket carrier bag in one hand. Her face was grey and blotched. She wore a knee-length skirt and a long cardigan weighed down at the front by the pockets. Her legs were bare. Yet she carried off the situation with such confidence and aplomb that they all believed that she had right to be there.' She appears, tweaks the reader's interest and disappears, like so much else in the book. She also, like Christie's Poirot, has a deplorable tendency to eavesdrop; for Poirot this had been a point of criticism and I'm tempted to see it as a weakness in this book.
The lives and backgrounds of Rachael, Anne Preece and Grace Fulwell are described over the first 220 pages with Grace's death mentioned on P. 81 but 'murder' isn't specified till P. 231 - just after the arrival Inspector Vera Stanhope who thereafter dominates the book, even though for much of the time she's 'off-stage'.Read more ›
The story revolves around three women who are camped out in an isolated cottage whilst they carry out an environmental survey on the site of a proposed quarry. It opens with the suicide of a fourth woman, Bella. The official explanation is that Bella was unable to cope with the strain of caring for her sick husband. Her friend Rachel isn't convinced - Bella was a strong woman - and sets out to investigate.
Suicide isn't a police matter and so, although this is badged as "A Vera Stanhope Novel", the formidable Detective Inspector doesn't enter the story properly until half way through, after the first murder. Is this linked to the quarry development or the victim's past?
As "The Crow Trap" progresses, we learn how the past and present experiences of the women whose lives (and deaths) have somehow become interlinked with the cottage and the surrounding countryside. The excellently crafted and largely plausible plot reminded me at times of Barbara Vine (Ruth Rendell), although Cleeves is less psychologically disturbing and I thought that the final piece in the jigsaw was a bit contrived.
Cleeves doesn't go in for long descriptive passages, but evokes a scene or a character through in a few well-chosen appeals to all the senses; the colour of a curtain or the texture of a face. She also makes extensive use of dialogue, reflecting DI Stanhope's philosophy that crimes are as likely to be solved by listening to gossip as by forensic analysis.
"The Crow Trap" isn't in the first division of detective literature but it's a good page turner that invites you to form your own theories and keeps you guessing until the very end. Vera Stanhope is a wonderful character and I'm looking forward to seeing how she develops in later novels.
It's a very well written story about the murder of a young conservationist, Grace, and her father Edmund. The best thing about the book is the setting. The countryside and wildlife of the North Pennines are described beautifully.
Grace was living in an old farm house donated to the Wildlife Trust when the last owner, Constance Baikie, passed away, with two other women conservationists. Their purpose was to write an environmental impact report to help decide whether a proposed quarry could be dug into the area. There are many people against the idea, and many people that would gain financially from the quarry, but who would gain the most if the environmental impact report couldn't be finished, or the results were fake? The brilliantly written character Inspector Vera Stanhope and her sidekick, Ashworth, will be investigating.
This was a great, all round, book with everything from murder scenes, family secrets and comedy. Highly recommended. I give it four stars out of five.

Americans requiring complex surgery will be able to have operations in New Zealand after the launch of a Kiwi medical tourism company.
Medtral was set up late last year to attract uninsured Americans or those looking for a cheaper option for surgery to come to New Zealand.
The company, whose creator is New Zealand obstetrician and gynaecologist Edward Watson, will initially do surgery in private Auckland hospitals but aims to expand to Wellington and Christchurch within about five years.
It intends to do up to 1000 complex operations a year on United States medical tourists over the next next five years, but says the surgery on foreigners will not mean Kiwis miss out.
More than 100,000 private surgeries are done every year in New Zealand.
Watson is in the US seeking business.
Medtral director Andrew Wong, who is also chief executive of Auckland's MercyAscot private hospital, said the company would soon operate on its first patients.
One patient is Eugene Horn, of Williamina, Oregon, who needs both knees replaced at a cost of $US200,000 ($NZ216,000).
Horn had medical insurance but had to pay the first $NZ52,000 in a type of insurance excess, Wong said.
For less than that amount, Horn could fly to New Zealand with his wife, have the surgery, accommodation for almost two weeks and a nurse visiting him in his hotel room after the operation.
The deal also appealed to US insurance companies as they would not have to pay for Horn to have surgery in the US, Wong said.
Visiting Americans would get complex operations performed as it made less financial sense to travel here for minor operations, he said.
One operation they would be attracted to was robotic surgery, which was a newer form of keyhole surgery where movement was minimised because it was done by a machine operated by a surgeon.
Roger Styles, the executive director of the Health Funds Association of New Zealand, which represents health insurers, said Americans would provide extra numbers and money, which would allow hospitals to buy the latest technology to use on Kiwi patients.

Police home in on speed merchants

Rival motorcycle gangs are working together to cook and supply millions of dollars worth of methamphetamine across the country.
Police believe they have uncovered a partnership between the Red Devils and the Head Hunters during a major organised crime investigation dubbed Operation Genoa. Investigators have also seized a custom-made mobile meth lab near Auckland, which they believe was being used by rival gangs to manufacture and supply drugs.
"Our intelligence indicates they [gangs] are sharing cooks, they are sharing muscle, they are sharing chemicals and they are sharing portable clan [clandestine] labs," Detective Senior Sergeant Lloyd Schmid said.
Drugs, cash and assets worth more than $12 million have been seized as a result of the nine-month inquiry, which spanned Auckland, Waikato and the top of the South Island.
That figure includes a $400,000 haul of methamphetamine and chemicals used to make the drug in Nelson, which is a record find for the region.
Eight people, including senior patched Head Hunters members Michael Joseph Cavanagh, 40, and David Gerrard O'Carroll, 49, were arrested a fortnight ago and face a raft of charges.
Now police say they are looking for a former member of the Red Devils, Terry Jones, 44, from Richmond, in connection with their investigation.
Jones was arrested as part of Operation Explorer in 2011.
He is on bail and due to reappear in court in July in relation to 28 charges, including the supply and sale of methamphetamine.
Investigators believe he still has connections to the Red Devils.
Properties connected to the gang, which recently become a "hang around" chapter of the Hells Angels, have also been searched as part of the investigation.
After the initial termination phase of the police operation investigators found 100g of methamphetamine and 2.4kg ephedrine in a Nelson storage unit linked to one of the Auckland-based suspects, Schmid said.
They also found a large amount of cash, a shotgun and equipment used to manufacture drugs. "We believe we have shut down a key distribution hub in Nelson."
The discovery "reinforces our belief that gangs are working together to manufacture and supply methamphetamine" across the country, he said.
Investigators believed the drug ring was using several addresses and storage units nationally to produce, store and distribute methamphetamine and ephedrine.
Police had recovered methamphetamine and precursor drugs and chemicals with a combined street value of up to $4 million and seized more than $5.8 million in assets including a Ferrari, Porsche, and Maserati, a 30-foot launch, five properties, gold bullion, silver ingots, firearms and more than $2.4m in cash.
Police alleged self-employed midwife, Lisa Marie Ryan, 51 from Nelson, was laundering money for the drug ring.
Many of the properties and expensive cars seized by police were in her name. She was arrested in Auckland and gave her address as a hotel room.
The Head Hunters formed in Auckland in 1967. The infamous gang has only recently had a presence in the South Island. Its membership has swelled to 150 patched members with at least 10 based in Christchurch and five in Nelson.
The Red Devils formed in Nelson in 2009. Police made several attempts to prevent the gang setting up, which included the arrest of 21 gang members and associates during Operation Explorer.
Charges against the group were later dropped because of a flawed undercover operation. However, a Court of Appeal decision last October cleared the way for the charges to proceed. Lawyers have indicated they will take the case to the Supreme Court.
Anyone with information about Jones' whereabouts should call police on 0211916094. He is described as caucasian and is is 175 cm tall. He has a distinctive birthmark on his left cheek and is believed to be somewhere in the Nelson region.

The screenplay by Richard Matheson is on the talky side with little in the way of action, but it's intelligently written and has some extremely quotable scenes. Prince really sinks his teeth into the part of the determined and passionate Robur, providing a less manic and composed alternative to James Mason's intense Captain Nemo in Disney's earlier 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
Although Matheson insisted Charles Bronson was "miscast" as John Strock, he does his best in a pretty basic hero role that just calls for him to be square-jawed, stoic and punch henchmen. The stoic and square-jawed Bronson is perfect for punching henchmen, so I'm unsure what Matheson is talking about. His cool, quiet demeanor acts as a nice counterbalance to Price's more animated, over the top (but still enjoyable) performance.
Mary Webster's Dorothy is little more than someone for Bronson and Frankham to fight over and for Hull to act protective toward, but nevertheless, she does have an arc, albeit a pretty standard one, wherein she finds the guts to stand up to wimpy heel Frankham's Phillip and choose the manlier Strock. This just leaves Henry Hull.Read more ›
Vincent Price saves the film from ruin, however, by delivering one of the most convincing and provoking performances of his career. Working with a decent script, Price plays perfectly Robur, an idealistic and madly brilliant conqueror, giving the viewer a perfect portrait of deeply-concealed rage and good-intention masked with vitriol and salted with madness. The character of Robur is somewhat metamorphic, and Price conforms to the part on demand. Demonic, honorable, diabolical, repetent -- Price shows all sides of Robur in perfect color.
Fans of Vincent Price and Jules Verne will love this film, and I would highly recommend it to them. Everyone else, however, might consider watching this one only if the oppurtunity presents itself on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
My only gripe is that it is on a DVD-R and not a DVD. It has a rather simple menu and the chapter stops are about every 5-10 minutes or so. Since it is from MGM the video quality is excellent and probably better than the widescreen laserdisc which I do have. I have not done a direct comparison but it looks excellent and is anamorphic.
Since MGM may never release this film on a regular DVD this might be your best option to get it unless you opt for the two releases from Spain. But if you are happy with a DVD-R then don't hesitate as the video is excellent.

Very nice hotel with a pool, not far from the airport. Was built in 2011 but looks like it was built this year. The lobby is very modern along with restaurant and pool area. The room is very nice and modern, bathroom is spacious and very nice.
I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. The rooms are very comfortable. The staff goes out of there way to make you comfortable. I highly recommend this property. It's only 15 minutes ride from the convention center and you don't have to pay crazy prices to be near the convention center. I was really impressed by the hotel design....
Dear guest, thank you very much for your appreciation ! We are glad to read you had good time with us and you would recommend our hotel for a stay in Bologna. We hope to welcome you soon, best regards
As a stay for a business traveler it was nice and convenient. Different design from other hotels. Fresh and clean areas and rooms. Nice staff. Decent price. Good distance from the airport (17EUR with taxi). Ok breakfast but not so much variety.
Dear guest, thank you very much for your review and for the good comments about our hotel. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us and we will consider your remarks about the breakfast. We hope to welcome you soon, best regards
Stayed for business, it is situated near a busy road, not so good for walking. But the hotel is nicely decorated and modern, the food is great and the staff are friendly, one of the waiters Fabio was very welcoming and attentive during my stay.
Dear Mr Steve, thank you very much for your review and for the good rates you assigned to our hotel. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us, regardless the location and that you have found our staff helpfull and friendly..
We hope to welcome you again at our hotel!!
Just returned from a three day stay at this hotel as we were attending a concert at an arena close by... we were very impressed by the way the hotel is done up ... very stylish and trendy... the breakfast is very good as is the dinner which we had on our first day as we arrived late. it is...
Dear Maltesegl, thank you very much for your review! We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us, it was a pleasure meeting you for all of us. We hope you will stop by again in the future perhaps for another concert in Italy!!! Best regards
Traveling through Italy, my wife and I needed a place to stay near Bologna. This was a last minute booking and we weren't disappointed at all. The reception staff are very helpful and friendly. Rooms appear quite new, good size shower / bathroom and quality linen and towels. Would recommend! Reasonably priced too.
Dear James,
thank you very much for your review and for the good rates you assigned to our hotel.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us and also you were satisfied of our services and our staff.
We hope to welcome you very soon.
We stayed here as a stopover on a long motorway journey. Very smart, modern new hotel. Well appointed room (we chose a junior suite on top floor). Very friendly staff, secure parking; lovely garden (with pet rabbits) and swimming pool. Great value. Dog friendly (but check for extra fee). This is not a tourist environment, but within the hotel grounds...
I was there 5 days in June. It's a fantastic hotel, trendy, and the service is very good. The only negative thing is the conditioner. You have to call the reception to activate it in the room, and then you can regulate the temperature from your room. This happens every day...
Perhaps I am a little prejudiced by the hotel as I got a free upgrade to a junior suite but this was certainly value for money (£60 per night). The hotel is stylish without being too trendy (some design hotels move too far to the quirky for my tastes) with each floor themed for a continent (America, Asia etc).
A very nice hotel with excellent staff. Breakfast is simple but good quality. It would be better if boiling water were available for making tea in the morning, Rather than just a jug of hot water. A minor improvement, room are good and each floor has a different interior design.
"each level has a different theme so it is worth trying them all out!"
"Write a good review! One of our party had stayed previously and had written a good review on Booking.com and we all got upgraded."
"All room are good, stair are black, not always easy to see at night"
"Twin :) of course with amaizing bathroom."
"Try to get a room on a higher floor, facing in the direction of Bologna, to see the beautiful scenery."

Blended Learning | News
Blended learning solutions provider Edgenuity has released a new suite of courses in math, English language arts (ELA), and career explorations for middle school students.
The suite will be available this summer for deployment in the 2013-14 school year, and boasts math and ELA courses that support the instructional shifts required by the adoption of Common Core State Standards, according to a company release, including increased focus on problem-solving and analysis.
Designed for grades 6-8, the courses' new assignment types and tools feature interactive tasks and assessments, along with projects built to ensure subject mastery.
"We've redesigned our middle school curriculum to help students become more engaged in learning through interactive features, graphics, virtual labs, and simulations that bring content to life," said Sari Factor, CEO of Edgenuity, in a release. "Middle school is a pivotal period for most students, and a time when it can be difficult for students to catch up if they fall behind."
The math courses teach fewer topics at each grade level in an effort to promote greater depth of learning within each one, according to a release. On-screen teachers use diagrams, graphs and tables, verbal expressions, and symbolic notation to facilitate student understanding, and a "common misconceptions" feature highlights concepts that middle school students commonly find challenging.
Non-fiction readings form the core of the ELA courses, designed to support reading, writing, and speaking activities grounded in text-based evidence while also focusing on vocabulary development. A key feature of the courses is the Edgenuity CloseReader, which provides tools including text-based and audio commentary, embedded comprehension questions, highlighting and text annotation tools, word look-up, read-aloud, and translation into 17 different languages.
The Career Explorations portion of the suite is a course intended to help middle school students make informed decisions and develop plans around their future academic and career goals, and includes skill and interest assessments for students.

Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! The Rolling Stones In Concert [40th Anniversary Deluxe Box Set]
- Record Label: Abkco
- Release Date: Nov 3, 2009
- Summary: The rerelease of the two-night concert at Madison Square Garden in 1969 features five unreleased tracks and tracks from the opening acts: BB King and Ike & Tina Turner.
- Record Label: Abkco
- Genre(s): Rock, Live
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 10 out of 12
Mixed: 2 out of 12
Negative: 0 out of 12
The sound is sterling, Richards' guitar soaring effortlessly over the nimble rhythm section work by bassist Bill Wyman and drummer Charlie Watts.
This three-disc remastered Ya-Ya's includes the original in all its gritty glory. Disc Two is a five-song EP from the same shows, with acoustic performances--"Prodigal Son" and "You Gotta Move"--from Richards (playing a resonator guitar) and Jagger. The third disc is an unexpected treat: blistering sets by openers B.B. King plus Ike and Tina Turner (doing an outrageously steamy take on Otis Redding's "I've Been Loving You Too Long").
This smart four-disc package commemorates the concert's 40th anniversary with a pristine remastered version of the original recording, five previously unreleased songs from the same show and an entire disc devoted to the fiery opening acts, B.B. King and Ike & Tina Turner.
Q MagazineAs a live document of The Rollling Stones in all their swaggering, arrogant pomp, Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out is damned near essential. [Jan 2010, p.131]
The extra five Stones cuts earn their position as bonuses because they aren't as good as the ones on the original LP. The DVD outtakes are just that, fleeting celebrity cameos or not....As for the opening acts, B.B. King's five fine songs and Ike & Tina's showbizzier seven represent neither act at their best--and besides, who buys a Rolling Stones box to hear them?
The DVD material is marginal, live versions of the bonus tracks plus offstage footage left out of the Maysles brothers' infamous documentary Gimme Shelter. Better is a B.B. King and Ike & Tina Turner audio disc, because the Stones were still in awe of their idols and every tour opened with blues legends you weren't otherwise likely to see.
Now, by denigrating this Ya-Ya's reissue as a commodity and by questioning the album's canonization in general, I don't mean to imply this set doesn't cook. Even if it's not larded with 20-minute workouts, Ya-Ya's is manna for guitar freaks, thanks to the fiery interplay between the immortal Keith Richards and inarguably the greatest lead guitarist the Stones ever boasted, Mick Taylor.
Score distribution:
Positive: 2 out of 2
Mixed: 0 out of 2
Negative: 0 out of 2
Jan 8, 2015Simply the best live R&R album recorded/released. Everything, especially the guitars of Richards and Mick Taylor are just fantastic.
Jagger,Simply the best live R&R album recorded/released. Everything, especially the guitars of Richards and Mick Taylor are just fantastic.
Jagger, Watts, all at the top of their games.
The addition of the last five tracks makes this even better than the album I wore out a couple times in the 70's.
Some people think the duelling guitar solos in Street Fighting Man are great,...but the guitar in Can't Get No Satisfaction, the last song on this newly released album is mighty tasty as well.
It doesnt matter how loud I play it,...I can't make it sound bad. And the the neighbours never complain.

Charles Dharapak, Associated Press
DENVER (AP) — The manager of a Denver Chipotle restaurant has become an Internet celebrity thanks to the wide-eyed pose he struck alongside Mitt Romney when the Republican presidential candidate stopped by for lunch.
Marty Arps, 20, posed for a group photo with Romney and Chipotle employees Tuesday afternoon. Arps is seen making a wide-eyed expression while pointing at Romney.
The Associated Press photo is being shared extensively on Twitter and is making the rounds on websites.
"It's a facial expression I do when I'm excited," Arps told The Daily. He told the online publication he made the same expression when he met singer Nicki Minaj.
"It's like, 'Ah, it's them, right there in front of you!' They're not from another world,'" he said.
Arps was not at work Wednesday, according to a Chipotle employee who answered the telephone.
Romney seemed unaware of Arps' pose and the mood was jovial, said AP photographer Charles Dharapak, who snapped the picture. "It didn't seem awkward. Everyone was having a good time," Dharapak said.
Romney ordered a pork burrito bowl with guacamole during a break from preparations for Wednesday's debate with President Barack Obama in Denver. He was joined by his debate training partner, Ohio Sen. Rob Portman.
Romney spent about five minutes greeting customers, and he also posed for a photo outside with a 3-year-old girl.
Arps told The Daily he doesn't know yet who he'll vote for. He said he's "not too hip to elections and stuff.

In celebration of Women's History Month, Studio Lounge in Bay View will be featuring work by nine female artists who primarily depict women from March 6 – April 28. The exhibit, From Here to Her: Explorations of Feminine Beauty and Identity, is more than a collection by and about women, it questions how feminine beauty and worth are defined in American culture not only through the theme that ties the work together, but also through a corresponding educational event as well as other community outreach elements.
"Like many women, we struggle to find a balance between where we believe our beauty and worth lie and where the mass media relentlessly tells us it does," said Katie Mullen, exhibit curator and artist. "Whether we like it or not, media shapes culture. The goal of the show is to get people thinking about the impact it's had on women and girls in particular. What's the price we pay for it as individuals and as a society?"
Alverno College, the show's presenting sponsor, will host interactive educational workshops at Studio Lounge on March 16 that apply the show's theme across topics ranging from art history to activism. The morning program, from 10:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m., will include the sessions "Sex, Lies and What the Mirror Doesn't See" and "Photo-Editing and Unreal Perfection." The afternoon program, from 2:00 p.m. – 4:30 pm., includes "Representations of Women in Art History" and "Building Bridges from Here to There." Due to limited space, preregistration is required. For more information on these workshops, or to register, go to http://fromheretoher.tumblr.com/.
Proceeds from the workshop and other From Here to Her events will be donated to support TRUE Skool's 2013 Be Girl Project, the urban arts-based nonprofit's new program dedicated to nurturing self-worth, social-emotional intelligence, leadership experience and increased critical thinking skills among high school girls.
From Here to Her will feature artwork by Kim Alpert, Jasmine Barmore, Rosana Lazcano, Tazia LeMay, Katie Mullen, Miranda Petroviak, Racquel Racadio, Kerri Root and Jenna Van Ornum. Studio Lounge, located at 2246 S. Kinnickinnic, is open Wednesday – Sunday from 7:00 p.m. – 2:00 a.m. For more information on the exhibit or the workshop, contact exhibit curator, Katie Mullen, at (414) 731-0320 or at email@example.com.
