Rated 5 out of 5 by OSS7 This hotel has a great features This hotel is in perfect location March 19, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by md925 Mixed Opinion The public area is very impressive; however, our room was nothing special. We were told by the desk that we had a "preferred room" with a desireable view of the courtyard. We actually looked at a very ugly rooftop, and beyond it must have been the courtyard. There was one very small sink in the bathroom. Overall, it seemed like a very old room, but clean. The location of the hotel is excellent, central in Waikiki. The staff was friendly. The room was disappointing. March 19, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Joe33 Elegant Charm If you're looking for a hotel with the glamour and charm of the early 2oth century, this is the only place to stay in Honolulu. There's a reason they call this the Grand Old Lady and it is obvious from the moment you drive up and enter this lobby. It has all the sophisticated charm and all the modern amenties to separate it from all the others in it's class. March 17, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Warren99 Very Nice hotel, but stay away from city view in original building. Hotel itself is great with all amenities. Very close to beach & action. The only down side is that I had a room on 3rd floor city view in original building. Rooms a very small & way too much outside noise so lose to Main Street. Had to sleep every night with pillow over head & 1 night had to use my noise canceling head phones. Other thn TNT hotel is gret! March 17, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by JJtwice We were disappointed We booked the "First Lady of Waikiki" expecting a first class experience, and we were almost uniformly disappointed. The property is great as far as location, and the staff did their best to politely respond to our requests, even when they could not satisfy them. Also, the outdoor spaces are lovely and comfortable. However, there was nothing exceptional in the stay, and much to dislike. Our first night, we were in a room that was so noisy from Kalakaua Avenue activity that we were up half the night and requested a room change the next morning. Our new room, about 2/3 the size, was at least quiet. Two of the six nights we stayed there, we were awakened by fire alarms, once at 1 am. The wi-fi we were promised failed to work, and we needed to check out a hot spot from the IT department to receive internet service, even though we were in the main building just yards from the lobby. Even the hot spot worked only intermittently. We had requested a delayed checkout and were told to renew our request the day before checkout. When that time came, we were told to wait until the checkout date, at which time we were tersely advised by "Service Express" (an ironic name for them, as it turned out), that the front desk has denied all requests for extended checkout. There is no direct line to the front desk, and all requests are screened by Service Express, which almost without exception did not provide any. We were never told of a provision for guests to use changing facilities until it was already too late for us to take advantage. We have stayed at other Waikiki hotels, and we received far better value at a far better price. We could not help but feel that we were second class citizens at the Moana, whether because we did not pay a high premium for our room or because we were not among the many wedding parties that stayed there. Being an SPG member mattered nothing. Based on our stay, we would say that, unless you are a newlywed who has paid a king's ransom for a hotel room, do not expect this first lady to please. We are not novices to travel, and have made over 40 trips to Hawaii. Our accommodations this time ranked in the lower quarter of all our experiences. If you are going to spend over $400 a night for the lowest grade of room here, think again and look for a property that cares whether you are staying there. March 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by DCJ10 This hotel is the best for relaxing and enjoying the buzz of Waikiki We visit this hotel many times and what makes it special is that we are not just treated like a number, we are welcomed back and always taken care of, The service is excellent. March 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by thebrads The Staff Exception Staff!!! From the front desk, to the pool,to the beach crew....all great people! March 13, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by KDFL Perfect Stay!!! I'm a Lifetime SPG Platinum who stays in Starwood properties throughout the world. From the moment I checked in with Irene at the front desk and spoke with Aki the concierge, I knew they would do everything possible to insure a perfect stay and they did. The new Tower rooms have been completely renovated and are very luxurious and a good size for Honolulu. The ocean and diamond head views are incredible. The Veranda restaurant and pool food and service were very good and Peter our breakfast server and Hayes at the pool were excellent. I've stayed in this hotel on four or five occasions since it has become a Westin and overall this was the best stay yet. March 12, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Skiff Vacation Stay Great hotel. Had issue with WiFi connectivity that did not get resolved. Network cable did not work in the room. Breakfast for platinum has only continental option. March 11, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Jonathan Road noise The room was thoughtfully equipped with a white noise machine, and that should have been my clue to stay elsewhere. The road noise from my Banyan City view room was the worst I have ever experienced in a Westin or any other similar quality hotel. Truly a disappointment. March 11, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by KDBOSTON Best Starwood Hotel Ever The Moana Surfrider is the most well oiled Resort ever! Upon check in received a Platinum upgrade to an Ocean View Room in the Tower Wing. Additionally, the hotel has implemented several programs of further recognize gold/platinum guests such as discounts on food/spa across the Starwood resorts in Honolulu. Every detail in architecture and maintenance at this hotel is monitored frequently and it is kept beautiful. The staff exudes Aloha in every way possible. From check in to breakfast to drinks at the bar, service is impeccable and friendly. Chris and Peter at the Beach Bar are extremely friendly and great resources for local grinds. Don't consider staying else where on Waikiki! Extremely satisfied and want to live here! March 10, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by dana75 whst does spg really mean!! The staff were none caring and in fact careless with check in and out and all requests in between March 9, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by David Nice experience, overall Overall the hotel is very nice. The rooms in the main hotel are a little small for two people and do not match the spacious adjective mentioned in their ads. The staff outside of the front desk were very attentive and helpful. The front desk staff at check in, during the stay and check out were not very attentive. We waited in line despite two other staff being at the front desk, not on phones or appearing to attend to other activities. They did not make eye contact or even say they were busy and would be with us shortly. Made for a frustrating start and end of our vacation. March 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by 40th seaside view Loved the amenities, didn't expect all the available activities. Staff was very friendly, helpful, air conditioner had problems upon arrival, got fixed quickly, problems next day, took longer & 2 workers. Toilet freaked out my husband. Loved the surprise he had, Like the fact that safe was up higher. Didnot appreciate the note saying if we wanted more coffee we could pay for it! Really at that room rate??? Loved the history, the music every night. March 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by John213 Great hotel Great hotel with a great location on Waikiki. Convenient walking distance to shopping and restaurants. Staff is friendly and helpful. March 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Roberton Grand old hotel The Tower Wing is excellent. All the staff are very helpful and efficient. The Veranda is a great place to eat. The older part of the hotel has a lot of history. March 6, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by moxi disappoint one night Usually like staying in the "original" buidlings with character; but the first night we were in the front - on the street - so noisy - and the wind blew the windows panes and shutters rattled - all night - didn't sleep - we moved to tower - much better. March 5, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Verified Reviewer Surfs Out The hotel appeared to have seen better days. When we arrived, the first room we were given was reached down a musty smelling hall. It looked out at the wall of the building next door. The next room was so overwhelmingly perfumed with men's colgne that we had to request a third room. It was fine but still down a musty smelling hallway. The banyon tree courtyard is lovely and we enjoyed sunbathing so that we looked out at the beach. Hoping that the hotel is updated to not be swept out with the surf! March 4, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Joshua The Heart of Waikiki Moana Surfrider Hotel is the Heart of Waikiki it has the history and the first class service and facilities that you would expect and a little more. Absolutely fantastic place to stay, would recommend everyone to stay there when visiting Hawaii. March 4, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Belinda A bad experience for us We had a street facing room in the historic wing of the hotel for 4 nights in room 432. The street noise is very loud but nothing compared to the horrible neighbours we had in the adjoining room who shared our balcony. They drank and smoked and were excessively loud for 2 nights then argued through the day. We called security 3 times through the second night they were there(around 10.40pm, 2.30am then 4.30am) but they didn't quiet down and security did nothing to stop them. We got no sleep for two nights and were exhausted all day from the lack of sleep and it totally ruined our holiday. My husband had only come from Australia for 4 days so it was hard to get that pleasure of the Moana Surfrider when you have dreadful guests beside you and security not protecting your peace and quiet. They should have been evicted or we should have been refunded. Todd (the manager) did offer us a breakfast and then delivered a wine & cheese plate to our room which we appreciated. It's just that the noise was too loud for anyone to enjoy. The carpet was also in need to a clean and the shower looked tacky. Everyday the room was stocked differently and three times I had to ask for somethings that the cleaners had forgotten. On a positive side - the $30 resort fee is reasonable is you use the parking/yoga/aqua/phone and water, which we did everyday. Matt and Kristel are the best. March 3, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Murray1943 Graceful, stylish and elegant lady On entry to this wonderful establishment, we were immediately impressed by the friendly staff and the very stylish and large airy area with comfortable seating and the out look to the century old Banyan tree in the open court yard and onto the ocean. It was as if we were walking into a large private home, Reception was easy to find but not obtrusive so the ambiance was intact. The rooms are a good size with a balcony with plenty of room. We loved being able to have our door open at night and to hear the soothing surf. The staff were all happy, polite, cheerful, and willing to meet our needs. The usually speedy service in the eating areas was a big plus. We loved Tony's history tour and recommend it to all guests. We hope to return, Maholo to all who made our stay and my 70th birthday an unforgettable holiday. March 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by curt TV channels lacking I was very disappointed to discover that a Westin hotel in Hawaii did not have the GOLF channel March 1, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by StarpointsSlave The Veranda Won Me Over If not for the hotel's veranda I would have been disappointed in my stay. As far as traditional rooms go, it's a no-win situation regardless of which wing you stay in. The rooms in the Banyan Wing, to which I was originally assigned, are charming but sooooo small and have no lanai. I asked to be switched to a room in the Tower Wing instead, and while the rooms are spacious enough, the rooms are drab and dated, the bathrooms are lacking in counter space but not limescale, and the lanais are small and boast a view of ... the hotel next door. The answer to the unappealing rooms? Stay out of them as much as possible and, if not sightseeing, hang out on the wonderful veranda or in the beautiful lobby and gawk at all the Japanese wedding parties. I also dined at the Beachhouse, the hotel's signature restaurant, and I very much enjoyed the experience -- again, out on the veranda -- as well as the food (steak) and the service. To encapsulate: When I first checked in, I thought, "What a waste of my Starpoints since I don't care for Waikiki anyway," but by the end of my stopover stay I was thinking that whenever I visit one of the islands I'll make a point of connecting through Honolulu just so I can stay at the MS. Yeah, that's how much I loved the veranda. March 1, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Trip23 Not worth the effort If you want service, this is not the place. You are just one of many and there is no effort into making your stay welcome. You will wait 45 minutes after you order your food before you eat. If you want room service you will wait over an hour. If you want extra towels or have a simple question to ask- good luck with that... Your simply not worth the effort! March 1, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by CM16 Love this hotel One of the best things about Waikiki. Gorgeous old hotel loaded with charm. February 28, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Don109 Another Great Stay Right from the start at arrival with a greeting at the front door, I knew this was going to be another good stay at the Moana. It feels so good to be back and see the same familiar faces of staff, many of whom will also remember you in spite of dealing with thousands of other guests throughout the year. I noticed right away that the beautiful flower arrangements in lobby are back and the whole property is looking as good as ever. Very gracious and helpful front desk to accommodate a couple of requests I had made. Thanks Gloria and Mo and staff at the beach services, relaxing under an umbrella at the beach is made so very easy by these people and the wonderful beach bar staff that will run a cool refreshment out to you. Caught a few sunsets at the Beach Bar with family and friends, ahh, so nice. Had some wonderful food as well, coconut waffles in the morning are great and I can personally recommend the pomegranate glazed lamb chops, they were delicious. Overall, I love the Moana for its history, staff, and location in the heart of Waikiki. Relax on the inside and action on the outside. Thanks for a great stay. February 28, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Wien1010 Average the second time around Returning to the Surfrider for the second time my husband and I were dismayed to find our room very worn and not very clean. We will not return to this hotel the next time we are in Honolulu. February 27, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Paul13 Room prices are outrageous While the staff was courtesy and the location was nice the rooms are tiny. When you open the door you practically trip over the bed. Bathroom only had a small sink and corner shower not what I would expect for the price that I paid. You are truly paying for the location. February 25, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Spiritguy Great location Loved the location both in the Waikiki district and to the beach. Very nice outdoor beach bar. February 24, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Yasu1949 Room 547 It was a little bit old room, so the window not closed tightly and very noisy from street. February 24, 2013

Papers of the Smith-Bromley Family of East Stoke, Nottinghamshire 1305-1876
|Papers of the Smith-Bromley Family of East Stoke, Nottinghamshire 1305-1876
|GB 159 Sm
The collection contains the estate papers, manorial records, title deeds of property and other legal papers relating to land held by the Smith-Bromley family. The majority of the property records relate to the lands in the parish of East Stoke and neighbouring Nottinghamshire parishes but there are also documents concerning places in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Staffordshire, Gloucestershire, Flintshire, Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Westmorland, Lancashire and Huntingdonshire.
The collection is particularly rich in property records and associated legal documents. Few rentals or other records showing the economic base of the estate and family are present. The correspondence is almost entirely of a business nature and there are only occasional items of a family or personal nature.
Although the collection is very incomplete, it does contain most of the types of records which would be usual in an estate archive. They include: manorial records (terriers, valuations, bailiffs' accounts and court rolls) dating from the 15th century and later, deeds from the 14th century, ecclesiastical records concerning tithes, endowments and collections, and administrative records including the sheriff's acquittance or the appointment of the undersheriff from the 18th century.
There are also additional deposits of 19th century title deeds. Although maps and plans have not in general survived, there is a map of 1561 depicting part of East Stoke.
The collection contains manorial records and estate papers of the Smith-Bromley family and their estate at East Stoke. Ecclesiastical records concerning tithes, and property records for East Stoke and land in at least 10 other counties such as title deeds are also present.
|Held by:
|Nottingham University Library, Department of Manuscripts and Special Collections, not available at The National Archives
The collection was not given any structure or logical arrangement when it was acquired by The University of Nottingham Library and its order of listing, by item, still reflects the original order in which it was received.
|English, Latin
|24 boxes
|Restriction on use:
Photocopies and photographic copies can be supplied for educational use and private study purposes only depending on the condition of the documents.
|Custodial history:
The bulk of the collection was acquired in the 1940s by The University of Nottingham and subsequent additions were received in 1978 and 1987
|Administrative History:
Sir Henry Bromley, Baronet (1818-1895) of Stoke Hall, East Stoke, Nottinghamshire was the head of the Bromley family in 1876, the date of the last dated item in this collection. Sir Henry was the 4th to succeed to a baronetage that was created on 31 October 1757 for Sir George Smith (c. 1714-1769), elder son of eminent Nottingham banker, Abel Smith. Sir George's son George (1753-1808) succeeded him to the baronetage. He assumed the name of Bromley on 7 February 1778 at the request of Robert Bromley esq. of Abberley, Worcestershire, the unmarried first cousin of Sir George's mother. This was presumably a condition of Sir George becoming Robert Bromley's heir. Sir George Bromley was followed by his son, Robert Howe (1778-1873) who in turn was succeeded by Sir Henry Bromley Bart., his eldest surviving son.
Sir Henry, the 4th baronet, was a JP, Doctor of Letters and High Sheriff (1882) for Nottinghamshire. He was also captain of the 3rd Nottinghamshire Rifle Volunteers and the 48th foot regiment. He married Charlotte Frances Anne Rolleston (d. 1853) in 1848 and Georgina Ellen Vere-Fane in 1856. Abel Smith is said to have inherited lands in the Nottinghamshire parishes of Elston and East Stoke from James Banks (d. 1729) of Nottingham, JP and high sheriff (1722) and a relative of his mother. Abel Smith was the first member of the Smith family to live in East Stoke and may have erected Stoke Hall, said to have been built about 1750 on the site of St. Leonard's Hospital or a former manorial hall. Stoke Hall remained in the Smith-Bromley family until 1923 when it was sold by Sir Maurice Bromley, the 7th baronet. The Smith-Bromleys were lords of the manor of East Stoke until this date. The family also owned estates in the Nottinghamshire parishes of Elston, Owthorpe and Thorpe and their holdings stretched into a number of neighbouring counties.
East Stoke is a village and parish in the Newark Hundred and was in the northern wapentake of Thurgarton in Southwell Union.

Power8 seems like a good start menu replacement for the upcoming Windows 8. However, if you are looking for start button and start menu that look similar to those in Windows 7, you take a look at another start menu replacement, called Start8.
With Start8, you can bring the classic Windows 7 style start menu to Windows 8. Look at the screenshot below, does it look pretty much like the start menu you see on Windows 7?
Yes, everything looks so same with Windows 7 plus some Windows 8-exclusive enhancements. The start menu lets you access all installed applications as well as Metro apps in All Programs menu. You can also pin desktop and Metro apps to start menu. On the right pane, there is fast access to commonly used folders like documents, pictures, music, computer and control panel, among others. The shut down button is there too.
Besides that, you can perform search using the search box. You can search for desktop applications, Metro apps as well as documents. Other features include the ability to automatically matches color to the color of the taskbar and you should find the quick link to access Windows 8 Start Menu.
There is a few useful options that come with the app. For instance, you can set the system to automatically boot to Windows 8 desktop instead of the Start Screen. Also, you can pick a different start button to replace the start orb, and also disable Windows 8 desktop hotspots. Right click on the start button to access the options.
It's the time of the year again when we are busy keeping track of the number of days until Christmas. With just two weeks to go before Christmas Day, it's time...

PowerColor LCS HD6970 Review
Far Cry 2 and Metro 2033
Published: 22nd April 2011 | Source: PowerColor | Price: £359.33 |
Far Cry 2
The games change, but the story remains the same. The LCS HD6970 is the HD6970 performance king.
Metro 2033
Even the ever harsh Metro 2033 bows under the weight of performance available from the PowerColor LCS. Not only does the LCS beat the air-cooled HD6970 but it's up there with the outstanding GTX570.

Personally I would prefer a waterblock that completely covers the card, even though they won't really change the performance it will look nicer imo.
The 6990 version though does have a full waterblock that completely covers the card.
Sorry I keep harping on about the 6990. Just really looking forward to that one.Quote
Why it still dual slots card? they should make it one slot card.
Why it still dual slots card? they should make it one slot card.
I actually welcome this card and really hope we see more cards being sold with waterblocks, hopefully bellow the £300 mark, but at the moment with only the real enthusiasts using watercooling its hard to know how cost effective cards like this are.Quote
I didn't know that the redesign will coast too much. But I think if they make it one slot card it will sell more.Quote

No dudaríamos en repetir la estancia en vuestro apartamento. La ubicación es inmejorable, en 7 minutos andando en Gran vía y con estaciones de metro a mano. El apartamento, correcto.
The appartment was nice and cosy, looked like on the pictures and was easy to reach by public transport. The kitchen is well equipped so that cooking there (even for quite a big group of people) during or stay worked quite well.
For big groups with little budget this is definitely a great place to stay in Madrid!
Very nice appartment. Nice location, not too far from the centre, good airconditioning and nice neighbours. Kitchen wasn't very good though. Small pans and furnace. Overall very good for the price.
The apartment was perfect. Clean and tidy. Friendly, efficient service from Manual and Micaela. Recommended.
They late a little bit and they didin't apologize but he gave us very good expanations about apartment. Entrance in building isn't good but apartment is very good. The main problem is smell from other apartments that come into our. There are very good beds. Apartment was clean and has everything what you need for a stay. It is very good located- 10 minutes walk to Plaza Mayor.
A very nice apartment in a really beautifool, central and characteristic area of the city. The host was reliable in the instructions provided me. Just the condizionaore could work better.
hola queria decir que el apartamento que nos toco estaba bastante justo de todo para la cocina y que el colchon de la cama de matrimonio se tendria que cambiar ya ,en cuatro dias apenas pudimos dormir se te hincaban los muelles,por lo demas solo decir que la chica que nos atendio muy amable,creo que muchos requisitos piden para lo que ofrecen
En general está bien el apartamento, bien situado, algo más pequeño que parece en las fotos y la persona que nos atendió muy amable. Le faltan algunos detalles de limpieza y para comodidad de los huéspedes yo añadiría algo básico como gel de ducha y un secador de pelo.
Apartamento justo en lo que se muestra en la publicidad aunque un poco escaso en la limpieza y calidad de los muebles, de la mesa,y en especial del sofa-cama, que estaban en precario, muy dificil de montar y desmontar para acostarse y cojeaban ostensiblemente, lo que hacia el sueño muy incomodo. Le pedimos una plancha y nos dijeron que se pasarian a dejarla pero no llego en los 12 dias que estuvimos.
Todo bastante bien un apartamento muy bien situado y bastante limpio. En general lo que se esperaba

I set up a blog within the /wordpress folder and got WP Blog Stats working. I then changed the blog address to display the blog within the route folder when the site went live. Since redirecting the blog address Stats doesn't work. When I access Blog Stats through the Dashboard I am prompted to enter my WP.com username and password. The username and password don't work and when I try to retrieve the password from WP.com I get NOTHING. I've tried emailing them through their support form, but because the site is hosted externally I can't contact them.
What do I do? Should I try uninstalling and re-installing? Should I give up on Blog Stats and try a new plugin?

#1 UPDATE Employee
This homeowner was not defrauded by anyone. She lied about her investment homes and the bank would not modify the loans. Facts matter!
AUTHOR: Matthew - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, November 17, 2010POSTED: Wednesday, November 17, 2010
This investor simply wants to blame others for her failure to cooperate, provide timely documents and for being untruthful. We asked for a utility statement to prove her occupancy of these properties and she kept trying to hide the fact that she is an investor. Her lender did not believe she is "occupying all of her FIVE properties" at the same time! You cannot be an owner occupier for this many properties at the SAME TIME. The lenders caught on to this fact and that is why her modification files became such nightmares..... facts matter!
She is not some poor homeowner....this is an over-extended investor looking for a freebie. When you have 5 rental properties you will have a hard time claiming a hardship. The President's modification plan was designed for homeowners not investors. Also, when you refuse to answer the phone and refuse to provide documents you are really putting yourself in jeopardy.
There are numerous correspondences to this homeowner, numerous unanswered phone calls and numerous unpaid bills..... Its hard to balance belligerent banks with belligerent homeowners..... This is exactly why I have stopped all modification services as of 6 months ago.
Facts matter! Its easy to write a self-serving post..... In sum, the contract is clear and is extensive. The contract clearly states that all clients must be truthful and must cooperate and she did not. Simple as that!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Been on shark feeding dives....seen reef sharks, bonnethead sharks (smaller hammerheads) and even a Tiger Shark in open water. Even did a Great White Shark Cage Dive off the coast of San Diego many years ago. That was the most incredible thing I have seen. Several 15-20 foot great whites coming up from below and biting at the cage. My heart was racing. Yeah, not sure I could do that. I even opted out of the whole snorkling with the sting ray thing in the Bahamas. I bet that was quite the experience though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mountain Hardwear Elkommando Kilt
Where to Buy
The only thing I have missed since I left my pants…
Source: received it as a personal gift
The only thing I have missed since I left my pants behind and started hiking in kilts? A kilt made of fast-drying, brush-resistant nylon. The Elkommando kilt brings technical excellence to the convenience and comfort of hiking in a kilt. Added bonus: side pockets, which traditional kilts lack.
- Lightweight
- Comfortable
- Fast-drying
- Tough fabric
- Doesn't show dirt
- Modesty snap is a plus
- Pockets are good-sized and well-placed
- Fits well with a backpack hipbelt
- Tends to be a bit tight in the hips
- Hip snaps, unsnapped, chafe
- A bit shorter than I would prefer
- Waist not very adjustable.
The Elkommando has the comfort factor of a kilt. But the fit leaves a little to be desired. Most kilts are about six inches wider in the hips than the waist, and that fits the majority of men. But the Elkommando seems to have less of a difference, meaning that a kilt that fits across the waist is a bit tight across the hips. I thought I had solved that by not snapping the snaps at the hips, only to end up with an abrasion on my left hip from the open snap. Snapping just the left one solved the problem.
Then there's the length. At 21-22 inches, I need to wear it lower than I would prefer in order to have it come to just above my knees, which is where a traditional kilt falls and where I feel comfortable with it. That's about normal for a modern kilt; it's just a bit shorter than I would prefer.
It would help if the kilt was adjustable across the waist. Many modern kiltmakers use velcro on the waist to provide some adjustability. But the Elkommando has a snap and a belt. If it's just right or a bit loose, that's great. But if you're just a tad larger than the high end of the waist measurement, you need to go up a size.
When it got wet in a rainstorm, it was still comfortable to wear and dried quickly. I have found it to be refreshingly cool in hot weather, and the waistband wicks well. I have not used it in cold weather.
Because the waist is basically non-adjustable, it layers well only when adding layers on top.
Pockets are well-placed and generous, and close securely with snaps.
After five days of backpacking, it looked clean and brand new. It is nice enough to wear casually around town. So far, I have only one trip and one wearing-out on it, so I would expect it to be holding up well, and it is.
I've tried the Elkommando and though I like hiking in a kilt, I had issues with the fit. I also wish there were more pleats to help in the freedom of movement. I DO think it's a great product if it fits you. I had better luck with the Sport Kilt Hiking Kilt.

Much more comfortable and cooler than hiking in shorts.
- material
- design
- snaps on pockets
I'm 6'3" 240 lbs with a 44 waist. XXL fit fine. XL was a bit too snug, although it could be worn.
I ran water over the kilt right out of the box and it pooled on the material without soaking any up. I haven't used it in the rain yet, but it seems to be very water resistant.
Worked great in the field, except for the snaps on the pockets. If you try to pull open a pocket with one hand you'll end up revealing the secret of what is beneath your kilt. A zippered pocket closure would work better and be more secure.
I didn't think I would ever use the privacy snap on the hem of the under apron and pleats, but after a hike we went immediately to a post hike picnic and it was nice to be able to snap it up and avoid any inadvertent exposure.
Good enough product that I sent back the XL and ordered a second XXL. Now I can't imagine ever hiking in anything but a kilt where I would otherwise have hiked in shorts. Makes no sense to be torturing my boys on the trail when there is a better option.
This is a great product for summer hiking and unrestricted…
Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $75
This is a great product for summer hiking and unrestricted movement. I wore this on the AT this weekend and loved it. However, you do get a few looks and some comments. Do not worry and come up with some snappy comebacks.
- Nice pockets
- No more tight hiking pants
- None, but people always want to ask you about it.
As for the fit, I ordered a large and my waist is a 35-36 and it fit just right. However, if I gain any more weight they will be really tight. It has an adjustable belt but there is not much adjustment in the waist.
It appears waterproof/resistant but I have not worn it in the rain to test it out. Appears well made and durable with sun protection built into the material.
I have only worn this once hiking but I wear it everyday around the house. Love it and plan to buy another one.
Very comfortable, but takes a while to "get comfortable"…
Price Paid: $60
Very comfortable, but takes a while to "get comfortable" with wearing it. I'm 5'11" and 175lbs., the medium fits me well in the waist, but I feel like the "skirt" portion of the garment is a bit snug around the buttocks and thighs.
I use the XL size. My waist is 44 and it fits just fine. The pleats in the back are more than sufficient to afford the necessary freedom on the trail.

In the Media – Being a good friend when you're busy
In Fast Company, journalist Laura Vanderkam writes about some of the challenges of being a good friend when you're busy.
In the Media – 6 Ways to Sneak More Time With Your Besties (CafeMom)
Are you frustrated that you can't make more time for your besties?
In the Media: Two words you should never say to a friend (Grandparents.com)
Writing in Grandparents.com, journalist Ellen Breslau expounds on two words you should never say to a friend because they may turn out to be friendship killers: "busy" and "sometime."
The brush-off: Is my friend using his kids as an excuse?
Kids consume huge amounts of time and energy but a reader wonders whether his friend is using his kids as a brush-off.
Making and maintaining online friendships
Just like offline ones, online friendships need to work for both people.
How to avoid losing a friend
It is extremely common for friendships to end simply because two people drift apart as their life circumstances change. In fact, only one in 12 close friendships last over the course of a lifetime.
Guest Post: 3 Ways to Flex Your Job for More Free Time for Friends
Despite all the ways close friendships enhance our lives, many women who are working, raising a family, and/or caregiving for aging parents or other relatives may feel they simply don't have time for friends. Pat Katepoo, a work-life advisor, offers some practical suggestions (in her guest post below) that might make it easier to find more free time for friends.
When it comes to having friends, a "boy" friend may not be enough
I met a great guy who I have been with for five years but I feel that I am missing out on lots of things at my young age. One problem is that I am the manager now, and my staff is all around my age. I do go out with them but there is always that "manager and employee" barrier, which I know it has to be that way. But with all my responsibilities I don't have much time to go out and make friends.

Cute! Here, though, "...but conceded to allow him that small triumphant...", I think you meant simply "triumph".
I like how Naruto gets to Sasuke, and he just... lets him. LOL The whole thing was adorable. "A dobe is a dobe..." LOL

This is way cute, I really enjoyed reading it!

Umm...your username is retarded. Are you referring to yourself as a crustacean and all your crusty gloriness? Or should I say goriness because that would certainly explain my hemorrhage after having plowed through this fic.
1. DON'T attempt to be profound. You are one of those unfortunate inbreeds who could never pull it off in the first place. Ergo, you make yourself look even more moronic by such a grand endeavor. Ergo, go commit suicide. We thank you deeply.
2. You are lame.
3. Your characterization is lame. Oh wait, there is no characterization.
4. Please go die. THANK YOU.
| CoCo chapter 1 . 4/6/2008
CUTE! Love it, please write more, and also, for the story you wrote with Sarge, could you please update that since it's on Chapter 11 and you guys haven't updated for 3 or 4 months...:) thanks!~

Photos: 11 community stories you should care about (Dec. 20)
Photo: ROSE BACA/neighborsgo staff photographer
Garland firefighter Devon Colbert spends his days working to get his dream back. Doctors initially told him a spinal cord injury from a Dec. 17, 2012, accident would leave him paralyzed from the neck down, he said. He stayed in the hospital until April, when doctors decided he should start outpatient therapy. It's a grueling routine, he said, of three to five hours of therapy each weekday at clinics and on a functional electrical stimulation bike at home.

On Being At Peace With What You Have
Now this might sound like a silly post when I'm in the middle of a home renovation which seems to have no end in sight. I should be filled with inspiration and a fire from everything I see around me. That's my job right? True, but there's a certain peace that comes from being satisfied with yourself. With your progress and goods.
Sometimes it can be a fine line to find when there's so much home decor inspiration happening out there (although we're obviously partial to this little corner of the internet). It's easy for websites and magazines to make you feel like you need to craft a pillow or spray paint a piece of furniture. It's easy to feel that there's always something to be done which although might be true, can create a severe sense of unrest.
Your home should be a place to get away from the world. A place that's yours, the walls hold love and acceptance. It's a place to be grateful for our families, our jobs and our passions. So by being at peace, by being ok with what you have any the condition of your home, you give more to yourself in the way of home decor than you do by feeling forced to take on a new project. Good things come with time and when you're truly ready to remodel your kitchen? Guess what, it will happen, you will be inspired and without hurry. Oh yeah, and it will be amazing!

Picture Post: Cool Abandoned Bowling Allies
Bowling Allies are cool when they are open. They are also cool when they die!
Boom! That's pretty dramatic. What about this one:
It really is beautiful, here are some more of our favourites:
1.Lonely Bowling Ball
2. Ramps Are Waiting And Want To Be Used
3.Sad Ball
Pretty amazing stuff.
Bowling Alley DIY
I had a dream once. In the dream I woke up in my bed like on any other day, I stepped out of bed and wondered down stairs to the living room. But when I entered my living room, it was not the room I knew. That is right. In my dreams, things are not as they are normally are in normal waking life. They are all a little bit, I don't know, different. That's what happens in dreams really, they are different and they are not the same, they are unlike normal things, so to say, they are not as things are when things are not dreams. And dreams, we believe, mean something or refer to something or create something or are something more than the things they might seem to be if we do not look at them in such a way as to draw out some meaning from what might t first seem meaningless. I am not, of course, advocating some structural interpretative framework of symbolic meaning to understand dreams. I believe that is impossible, we cannot know that a certain thing, say a field of grain, means the same thing in my dream as it means in yours. But we can say that dreams are your brain working through something and that they are hence reflective and revealing of your deeper mental state.
In my dream, I arrived in my living room to find that there was no television, there was no stereo, there was no none of the stuff that's normally there. There was just one long, well regulation size, bowling alley. It stretched out in front of me with pins in the distance that glittered in the morning sun that was sneaking through the curtains. And I bowled, I picked up the only ball and it was perfect, perfect weight for me, perfect size on the holes, perfect. I swung it back and made my approach, and I bowled without thinking, I simply let it fly from me. Strike. I turned at there was another ball, I picked it up, perfect again, I turned and the pins had already returned, I swung, not thinking, strike. Strike, strike, strike, strike. They just kept coming, strike after strike. And I didn't once reflect on them, didn't once think about how amazing they were. I just kept bowling, and kept bowling strikes. I rolled the perfect the game.
I've never done that in real life. But I want to, I want to get to that level. I want to live my dreams. And I think that the dream was a message, a message about how that can be done: I need a bowling alley in my living room. But I'm not a millionaire, I'm not a Richy Rich, I'm not an oilman.
But I will have my bowling alley. First things first: the floor. I need to have a floor that will bowl well. Now, the assumption would be that I'd have to get an expensive professional wood floor, but due to monetery restraints I have to think outside the box. So, I've settled on some tile effect laminate flooring. I know what your thinking 'WHAT!? Tile effect laminate flooring??? What's going on in your brain box you complete mentalist mad man lunatic????!!!!!!'. Well, I get it, but from going and looking at a whole host of different floors of all weird and wonderful types. I took my ball to the showroom! And you know on what floor it rolled straightest? That's right, on tile effect laminate flooring. Sounds crazy, but its true.
So we're getting there. The floor is the first step. Next steep… well, everything else!
Style means a lot in bowling, it is all about how you carry yourself, how you move, how you approach the lane, how you let your hands slip over the hot air, how you reach down and let your fingers drift over the ball for a moment, before gathering it up into your arms. Do you pick it up with one hand and let it hang there! Do you lean back and look up at the ceiling and breath the air in, try and leave the moment? Is that even necessary for you? Maybe you don't want to forget the moment at all. Maybe you feed off the moment, maybe you need the moment. You hold up the ball to your chin and take a moment, stair down the lane, or is it an isle? No, it is a lane. Do you have a poise pose? Or a swagger? Then the most important part: the approach and the bowl. One hand? Two hands? Big swing back? Little Swing back? Does it hit the road straight or are you a thrower? It is all style. The best have the best style. Case in point? Belmo:
Just look at that last bowl, counting or not that is some crazy style. But what bowling really needs? A glamour couple.
Now that is what I'm talking about! I'm talking leather cat suits! I'm talking questionable hairstyles! I'm talking a fur pom pom scarf! Style! Fashion! Glamour! That's what we need now, more than anything else. I mean, bowling is inherently glamours, right? It's got cool balls and well polished lanes. It's got tension and cheering. It's got celebrations, it's got fashion, fashion, fashion! And style, style, style!
It's our fault if we're not showing that in how we play and present the sport. We need more Belmo's, more characters, more coolness. More style and fashion. We need to get on tv, we need to get in front of people, we need to get people involved!
We need to show our style.
Why We Bowl
Bowling is a fascinating sport, one based on constant repetition and zero change in circumstances and goal. It is the same challenge over and over again: can you role a strike? You are never asked to do anything else. You are never told that the ball is going to be a different size or role in a different direction or that the pins are going to move or be moving or be different sizes or different shapes. It the same, every time. Just you, the ball, the lane and the pins. Again and again and again and again. The only thing that can change is you: Are you focused? Are you there? Are you perfect? After hours of bowling? With the mind games? After watching your seemingly unflinching, indestructible, unbeatable, inhuman competitor roll strike after strike. Can you get up and sink another one like it was nothing? Can you stand up after all the pressure, with all the competition, and roll like you're back at your home alley? Like it was nothing?
It's not easy, because the beauty of bowling is that your only opponent is yourself really, and how much you allow the other person to effect you. If they can get into your mind, if they can undermine your confidence, if they can destroy you from the inside, if they can crumble the foundations, if they can undermine your faith, then they can beat you. Then you can lose. So the question is: Are you going to be waiting to lose? Or are you going to be ready to win?
Belmo knows no fear. Belmo thrives on the pressure. Belmo is unflinching. Belmo is indestructible. Belmo is unbeatable. But Belmo, and this is why we love him, is oh so human.
He's a machine up to the point of the last pin falling, then that smile breaks out, and we see the human underneath. That's the truth, the beautiful truth, of a person dedicated to something who hasn't lost his humanity in the pursuit of perfection. And such perfection. He is a person who has conquered themselves and so cannot be beat. That's why I bowl, to try and conquer myself, to control myself, to win.
Why do you bowl?

When questioned by the police, Ginger Cook told the police dept. that "it must have been her 16 year old daughter". This obsessive woman was able to use this company's resources for personal use and harassment and with no accountability. I filed a complaint with the Better Busineess Beareu of Kansas as well. Interesting enough this case BBB Complaint Case#99282576(Ref#15-97010183-99282576-3-12100) cannot be located. I will never use this company and suggest to all my friends not to either.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - After spending 23 years as Mesa State College, the school will make the official switch to Colorado Mesa University this week.
The name change takes effect on Wednesday August 10 in accordance with the law signed by Governor John Hickenlooper earlier this year -- but school officials are already getting started with the transition.
Monday morning, three signs along the edge of the campus were changed to read Colorado Mesa University -- and on Tuesday, the school will unveil its new academic logo and athletics logo.
Wednesday, CMU's new website (www.coloradomesa.edu) will also launch.
Officials say the bulk of the major name change work will be done over the next three months, but that the full transition will take about a year to complete.
"There are a great number of I's that have to be dotted and T's that have to be crossed," said Rick Taggart, Executive Director of Marketing and Student Recruitment for the soon-to-be Colorado Mesa University. "We're excited for the change in status, but at the same time we've got a pretty detailed checklist that we'll have to get through."
The school is also celebrating the completion of a $15 million renovation project on Houston Hall this week. An open house is scheduled to take place there Wednesday, August 10 from 5:00pm - 7:00pm.
