Unusual instruments featured on next Americana concert
Staff Writer
Say that someone plays the dulcimer to people who do not live in our area, and you may get "What's a dulcimer?" in response. Bring up the topic here, and you might, instead, be asked if you're talking about nationally known musical arranger Carilyn Vice or folk musician Phee Sherline.
Dulcimers first found their way across the Atlantic Ocean from Scotland and Ireland to America when the Appalachian Mountains were being settled. The dulcimer is a stringed musical instrument and both Sherline and Vice are Fallbrook residents. Both women are widely known as dulcimer artists, and both will be featured Aug. 11 at the next concert in the local Americana Music Series. Vice's choice of dulcimer is "fretted"; Sherline's is the "hammer" version. Sherline recently said that as her contribution to the concert, she will be playing " … some dulcimer tunes with (her) husband, Ken Graydon."
Also appearing on "Dulcimer Night -- an evening of rarefied music," will be Cyntia Smith, who will be accompanied by Lisa Kittering. Smith is a recording artist, teacher and instrument maker. Rounding out the evening's bill will be some musicians whose repertoire complements an evening of dulcimer music, the group European Union, and single performer Jennifer Neal. European Union, a trio, offers its audiences "songs and instruments (which) range from Ireland to Macedonia," according to Sherline. Neal plays the hutsulski (and you can be forgiven for asking "What's a hutsulski?"). Originally designed to accompany polka dancing, it is a stringed, rarely seen Slavic musical instrument.
The musicians comprising the Americana Music Series of concerts are booked by the husband and wife team of Phee Sherline and Ken Graydon, who have a wide acquaintance in the folk music field. The series was launched March 4, 2000, in a basically experimental move, "to create opportunities for talented musicians to perform," one of them said at that time. The concerts have proven to be popular, not only locally, but increasingly with audience members from out-of-town.
Dulcimer Night will begin at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 11, at the Hilltop Center, 331 East Elder Street -- "Go a block or two east on Elder off Main," Sherline explains. Watch for its sign; the building is set back from the street, behind its parking lot. Tickets, priced at $10 for adults, with a $5 ticket for those under age 17, will be available at the door. For further information, call (760) 723-7255.

The amateur actors of Somali descent from Minneapolis made their film debut acting as Somali pirates alongside the two-time Academy Award winner, Tom Hanks. (AP Photo/Copyright Sony – Columbia Pictures, Jasin Boland) Like many other movie critics, I'm falling in line to say "Captain Phillips" is one of this year's best movies. Captain Phillips, based on a true story from 2009 headlines, is an action-packed tale of a group of Somali pirates who takeover a US container ship, MV Maersk Alabama. Captain Phillips (Tom Hanks) is on a tight schedule to deliver 17,000 tons of cargo to Kenya. Ignoring several advisories to stay clear of the Somalia coast, Phillips still managed to get on the radar of 4 Somali pirates. Led by a frail, focused Muse (Barkhad Abd), the African bandits took the 20-person crew and ship hostage looking for riches and gold. When the heist comes up short, the armed men take veteran seaman Phillips instead.

Yet those who study such violence have a message: Don't worry.

News 12 at 6 o' clock/ December 9, 2014
AUGUSTA, Ga.--People living at Raes Creek Mobile Home Park and Rocky Creek Mobile Home Park have been without water for three days.
It's becoming more than an inconvenience for families like the Shearer's.
"I had to go down and get this water from the creek so we can come flush these toilets, " Kimberly Shearer said.
They dripped their faucets Monday night before the big freeze, but still woke up to find no water.
"I figured it was frozen, so I went out with a hair dryer for almost an hour trying to defrost the pipes," Melvin Shearer said.
Now that's it's day three without water for the Shearer family, along with dozens of others, they're starting to get desperate. Red Cross came out to give a lot of residents water.
And while the hundreds of people who call Raes Creek and Rocky Creek home have been without water, management has remained pretty silent. They posted a note on the mailboxes Thursday morning, that said the water had been turned off due to the freeze. But, it didn't give a lot of details about when the water will be turned back on or what to do in the mean time .
We called code enforcement and they went to speak with management Thursday. We're told licensed plumbers are working on the problems, and those without busted pipes should have water now. They're hoping that everyone's water will be restored by Friday at noon.

Skip to comments.Harry Reid: Mitt Romney Has 'Sullied' Mormonism': He's not the face' of the religion...
Posted on 09/25/2012 10:13:22 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
Harry Reid is a Mormon, and he wants you to know that Mitt Romney is not the poster boy for his religion, the Salt Lake Tribune reports. Speaking on a conference call Friday about Romney's upcoming visit to Nevada, where many Mormons live, Reid said that he agrees with fellow Mormon Gregory A. Princewho blogged last week that Romney has "sullied" their shared religion, according to Politico. Members of the LDS church "understand that [Romney] is not the face of Mormonism," Reid added.
The GOP pounced on Reid's comments, with Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz saying, Harry Reid seems to be making this way too personal and consequently throwing the religion under the bus for his own personal gain. Thats not where anyone should be going with this. Hes taking this two steps too far.
This could result in a great article on the many faces of Mormonism.
The church should kick Harry out. Since when did being a pedarest fit in with their beliefs. F U Harry
Good it makes me feel less queasy voting for him if mitt is not the face of the church of jospeh smith
A lot of Baptist had that problem with President Carter. Makes me want to vote for Romney, which I am going to do, but not because I want to.
I live in Utah...Mitt Romney is very popular among the Mormon faithful...and he is probably the best public representative they have had for their religion since Steve Young was playing football.
Harry Reid is the face of Moronism.
Ha ha!
Dingy is a "Jack Mormon".
Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi ARE criminals who should be frog marched to a life sentence in prison.
Harry is a great example of demon possession.
Whoa. I had no clue Harry Reid is [nominally] Mormon. I would never have guessed based on his political stances. Kinda like Pelosi being a proud Catholic who says her abortion stance is somehow part of her faith.
Thank you Harry, for helping us secure Nevada's electoral votes for Romney with those comments.
Reid has "sullied" his diapers. Nevadans, retire this babbling fool.
I know some Mormons, and they don't act like dingy harry.
The cadaver speaks again.
Based on his votes, Reid must be a member of the Mormon group Affirmation.
So far the Obama campaign and its allies have called Romney a tax fraud, a sullied Mormon,greedy,uncaring, accused him of killing a steel unionist's wife,and a vulture capitalist. Their campaign is twofold- the other guy looking to replace me is the devil and anything bad happening on my watch is due to the devil that preceded me.Last time I heard those excuses from a underperforming employee, I fired him.
how about Reid shows HIS tax returns,
and shows how much he gave to the Morman Church ?
Whoa. I had no clue Harry Reid is [nominally] Mormon. I would never have guessed based on his political stances. Kinda like Pelosi being a proud Catholic who says her abortion stance is somehow part of her faith.
great point!
Obama, as a "Christian", is a better muslim...
than Pelosi is a Catholic or Reid is a Mormon !
On the other hand, another man of the LDS faith wrote many books on America's founding principles, one of which is entitled, "The 5000 Year Leap." If one reads the following summary of those principles, then one must conclude that Reid clearly would be in disagreement with that fellow LDS member also:
From the web site:
"These beliefs have made possible more progress in 200 years than was made previously in over 5,000 years. Thus the title "The 5,000 Year Leap".
"The following is a brief overview of the principles found in The 5,000 Year Leap, and one chapter is devoted to each of these 28 principles.
Principle 1 - The only reliable basis for sound government and just human relations is Natural Law.
Natural law is God's law. There are certain laws which govern the entire universe, and just as Thomas Jefferson said in the Declaration of Independence, there are laws which govern in the affairs of men which are "the laws of nature and of nature's God."
Principle 2 - A free people cannot survive under a republican constitution unless they remain virtuous and morally strong.
"Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters." - Benjamin Franklin
Principle 3 - The most promising method of securing a virtuous people is to elect virtuous leaders.
"Neither the wisest constitution nor the wisest laws will secure the liberty and happiness of a people whose manners are universally corrupt. He therefore is the truest friend to the liberty of his country who tries most to promote its virtue, and who ... will not suffer a man to be chosen into any office of power and trust who is not a wise and virtuous man." - Samuel Adams
Principle 4 - Without religion the government of a free people cannot be maintained.
"Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.... And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion." - George Washington
Principle 5 - All things were created by God, therefore upon him all mankind are equally dependent, and to him they are equally responsible .
The American Founding Fathers considered the existence of the Creator as the most fundamental premise underlying all self-evident truth. They felt a person who boasted he or she was an atheist had just simply failed to apply his or her divine capacity for reason and observation.
Principle 6 - All mankind were created equal.
The Founders knew that in these three ways, all mankind are theoretically treated as:
- Equal before God.
- Equal before the law.
- Equal in their rights.
Principle 7 - The proper role of government is to protect equal rights, not provide equal things.
The Founders recognized that the people cannot delegate to their government any power except that which they have the lawful right to exercise themselves.
Principle 8 - Mankind are endowed by God with certain unalienable rights.
"Those rights, then, which God and nature have established, and are therefore called natural rights, such as are life and liberty, need not the aid of human laws to be more effectually invested in every man than they are; neither do they receive any additional strength when declared by the municipal [or state] laws to be inviolable. On the contrary, no human legislation has power to abridge or destroy them, unless the owner [of the right] shall himself commit some act that amounts to a forfeiture." - William Blackstone
Principle 9 - To protect human rights, God has revealed a code of divine law.
"The doctrines thus delivered we call the revealed or divine law, and they are to be found only in the Holy Scriptures. These precepts, when revealed, are found by comparison to be really a part of the original law of nature, as they tend in all their consequences to man's felicity." - William Blackstone
Principle 10 - The God-given right to govern is vested in the sovereign authority of the whole people.
"The fabric of American empire ought to rest on the solid basis of the consent of the people. The streams of national power ought to flow immediately from that pure, original fountain of all legislative authority." - Alexander Hamilton
Principle 11 - The majority of the people may alter or abolish a government which has become tyrannical.
"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes ... but when a long train of abuses and usurpations ... evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security." - Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence
Principle 12 - The United States of America shall be a republic.
"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America
And to the republic for which it stands...."
Principle 13 - A Constitution should protect the people from the frailties of their rulers.
"If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary.... [But lacking these] you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself." - James Madison
Principle 14 - Life and liberty are secure only so long as the rights of property are secure .
John Locke reasoned that God gave the earth and everything in it to the whole human family as a gift. Therefore the land, the sea, the acorns in the forest, the deer feeding in the meadow belong to everyone "in common." However, the moment someone takes the trouble to change something from its original state of nature, that person has added his ingenuity or labor to make that change. Herein lies the secret to the origin of "property rights."
Principle 15 - The highest level of prosperity occurs when there is a free-market economy and a minimum of government regulations.
Prosperity depends upon a climate of wholesome stimulation with four basic freedoms in operation:
- The Freedom to try.
- The Freedom to buy.
- The Freedom to sell.
- The Freedom to fail.
Principle 16 - The government should be separated into three branches .
"I call you to witness that I was the first member of the Congress who ventured to come out in public, as I did in January 1776, in my Thoughts on Government ... in favor of a government with three branches and an independent judiciary. This pamphlet, you know, was very unpopular. No man appeared in public to support it but yourself." - John Adams
Principle 17 - A system of checks and balances should be adopted to prevent the abuse of power by the different branches of government.
"It will not be denied that power is of an encroaching nature and that it ought to be effectually restrained from passing the limits assigned to it." - James Madison
Principle 18 - The unalienable rights of the people are most likely to be preserved if the principles of government are set forth in a written Constitution.
The structure of the American system is set forth in the Constitution of the United States and the only weaknesses which have appeared are those which were allowed to creep in despite the Constitution.
Principle 19 - Only limited and carefully defined powers should be delegated to government, all others being retained by the people.
The Tenth Amendment is the most widely violated provision of the bill of rights. If it had been respected and enforced America would be an amazingly different country than it is today. This amendment provides:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
Principle 20 - Efficiency and dispatch require that the government operate according to the will of the majority, but constitutional provisions must be made to protect the rights of the minority.
"Every man, by consenting with others to make one body politic under one government, puts himself under an obligation to every one of that society to submit to the determination of the majority, and to be concluded [bound] by it." - John Locke
Principle 21 - Strong local self-government is the keystone to preserving human freedom.
"The way to have good and safe government is not to trust it all to one, but to divide it among the many, distributing to every one exactly the functions he is competent [to perform best]. - Thomas Jefferson
Principle 22 - A free people should be governed by law and not by the whims of men.
"The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom. For in all the states of created beings, capable of laws, where there is no law there is no freedom. For liberty is to be free from restraint and violence of others, which cannot be where there is no law." - John Locke
Principle 23 - A free society cannot survive as a republic without a broad program of general education.
"They made an early provision by law that every town consisting of so many families should be always furnished with a grammar school. They made it a crime for such a town to be destitute of a grammar schoolmaster for a few months, and subjected it to a heavy penalty. So that the education of all ranks of people was made the care and expense of the public, in a manner that I believe has been unknown to any other people, ancient or modern. The consequences of these establishments we see and feel every day [written in 1765]. A native of America who cannot read and write is as rare ... as a comet or an earthquake." John Adams
Principle 24 - A free people will not survive unless they stay strong.
"To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace." - George Washington
Principle 25 - "Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations -- entangling alliances with none."- Thomas Jefferson, given in his first inaugural address.
Principle 26 - The core unit which determines the strength of any society is the family; therefore the government should foster and protect its integrity.
"There is certainly no country in the world where the tie of marriage is more respected than in America, or where conjugal happiness is more highly or worthily appreciated." Alexis de Tocqueville
Principle 27 - The burden of debt is as destructive to human freedom as subjugation by conquest.
"We are bound to defray expenses [of the war] within our own time, and are unauthorized to burden posterity with them.... We shall all consider ourselves morally bound to pay them ourselves and consequently within the life [expectancy] of the majority." - Thomas Jefferson
Principle 28 - The United States has a manifest destiny to eventually become a glorious example of God's law under a restored Constitution that will inspire the entire human race.
The Founders sensed from the very beginning that they were on a divine mission. Their great disappointment was that it didn't all come to pass in their day, but they knew that someday it would. John Adams wrote:
"I always consider the settlement of America with reverence and wonder, as the opening of a grand scene and design in Providence for the illumination of the ignorant, and the emancipation of the slavish part of mankind all over the earth."
I don't believe that Romney is the face of the church.
I believe that Jesus Christ is the face of the church. And we as members are his disciples and His representatives.
Is Reid the face of the Democrat party? A party who has in their political platform gay marriage, pro-choice abortion), Anti-Israel language, and a weighing down of future generations with debt and government dependence. Everything that the LDS church and a majority of the faithful stand against.
I am truly speechless (or maybe not) with this man.
Mormonism was sullied the moment a con artist came up with the caper of sticking his face into his hat. More gold, less digging. And the fringe benefits were out of this world.
So is Harry Reid, the inveterate liar and mob-connected crook, the face of Mormonism?
This actually may help Mitt. I read that some people aren't voting for him simply because he is a Mormon.
Willard is a busy little Bee mixing politics with his religion ...
and Reid is afraid he will be Tweded if he doesnt pick the Mormon Corporation over Willard...
I thought the same thing. This should relieve all of those who were worried about Mitt being a Mormon.
Wow, that's low, even for Harry Reid.
Just what demographic was he going for here?
I guess the millions of dollars and countless charitable deeds for Mormans done by Romney aren't the face of Mormanism? Does Harry spend his free time walking the walk too? How much of his income goes to the church in Salt Lake City?
I believe that Jesus Christ is the face of the church
So where deoes Adam fit in ???
While The LORD Jesus Christ is the God of the Christians, he is not for the Mormons...
The god of the Mormons is Adam AKA Michael the Archangel...
as Brigham Young an early Mormon prophet said "Adam is our father and our god and the only god with which we have to do"
"When the prophet speaks the thinking has been done"
"Follow the leader even when he is wrong" Dallin Oakes...
Oh dear...
"A lot of Baptist had that problem with President Carter."
Yup; we Baptists had huge issues with Carter and Clinton, both Southern Baptists. They weren't good Baptists. JFK wasn't a good Catholic. Romney may or may not be a good Mormon; I don't know.
I don't care about a person's denomination or religion. I care if a president is a strict Constitutionalist; if so, all else will fall into place when it comes to freedom, religious and otherwise.
And Harry Reid has an invisible friend — the one who tells him info about Romney's taxes. Are invisible friends part of the "face of Mormonism"? That old cook needs to check himself into a rubber room with a drool cup and stfu.
I bet a lot of Mormons hope that people think Mr Romney is the face of Mormonism, but this Reed jerk has let the cat out of the bag.
How many people even knew that Reed was a Mormon until just recently? While it is very well known that Romney is a Mormon.
i believe reed will make the Mormons pretty unpopular.
Here is where Prophet Monson and the Twelve Apostles can hit a grand slam homerun for Mitt Romney:
EXCOMMUNICATE Harry Reid.
So where deoes Adam fit in ???
For what ???
If they excommunicate Reid they woulod have to excommunicate the fair haired boy, Willard...
Both are equally progressive liberals...
What has Harry done that Willard has not done ???
That "walk" is to destroy Christianity and replace it with Joseph Smith's polytheistic cult, where Mitt and Harry both are being groomed to become Gods, some think that Mitt has already received the 'second anointing' by the inner sanctun and his Holy Prophet.
Harry Reid gives at least 10% of his income to Mormonism, both Reid and Romney are temple Mormons, they are both among the holy of the holiest of Mormons, it is Mormon law that they give the money, or else they are booted down to the ranks of the less holy Mormons, and they cannot become Gods, nor enter the secretive temples.
I sure hope Harry Reid isn't the face of Mormonism!
I sure hope Harry Reid isn't the face of Mormonism!
Did he think that America was founded by polytheists and polygamists?
I see somebody disturbed your rock.

Consumers are becoming more proactive about their health, which has turned immunity supplements into a popular category throughout the year. Check out nine products that will keep customers—and your store—healthy.
More About:
These days, the immunity section of Ritzman Natural Health Pharmacy never gets a moment of peace. "It's an active section year-round," says Janine Black, retail operations manager for the nine-store chain in Ohio. "Sure, you get a spike during a bad cold and flu season, but it's never a quiet section."
Consumers are becoming more proactive about their health, which has turned immunity supplements into a popular category throughout the year. "Most of us have been trained to wait until we're sick and then do something," says Gary Kracoff, ND, registered pharmacist for Johnson Compounding and Wellness Center in Waltham, Mass. Now his customers ask how to fend off bugs before they attack. "We're getting more of those questions, which is great because it's easier to help a person stay healthy rather than get healthy," he says.
Fueled by consumer demand for continual protection against sickness, along with new research support for natural options, U.S. consumer sales of cold and immunity supplements climbed to nearly $2 billion in 2010—a 1 percent gain over 2009, according to Nutrition Business Journal.
Although cold and immunity supplements sales remained healthy in 2010, their growth paled in comparison to the 7 percent rise in 2009 and 10 percent expansion in 2008. "H1N1 gave immunity supplements a very meaningful boost in 2009 and 2008," says Marc Brush, editor-in-chief of Nutrition Business Journal. "As those sales leave the data set, it makes sense that growth rates slow."
The H1N1 flu scare may be over, but the sales trajectory of immune supplements remains upward, as new science-backed ingredients emerge and old standbys continue to bolster the category.
What should you stock in your immune-support section? Here are nine brand picks in three product categories that could help drive sales all year long.

In September of 2000 Market Street Mtge sold our loan to Chase Manhattan Mtge. It was getting harder for us. Our loan went from $1,535.29 and then jumped to $ 2,558.33 with in a 2 year period. Chase even sent us a check in the 1st year because we had and overage. How does this happen. We had to file for chapter 13 just to help us out with this increase.
We failed with even keeping up with these payments so Chase ended up giving our loan to American Servicing Co. in 2004. I could not even contact these people. We were no longer in Chapter 13 because we could not handle the payments so we were trying to work with all our creditors at this time.
American Servicing companies said we had to pay for all the past due in order to keep our home. This would have been impossible to do. We did not have $ 33,000. Our payment was close to $ 3000.00 at the time in 2004 - 2005. Then the Law office of Codilis and Associates started to try and take our home. We put our home up for sale in December 2005 to try and sell it before it was taken for us.
We did get a contract on our home in February of 2006. This was great right! American Servicing Company wanted to sell our home in Auction around March 2006. The home owner needed until April to sell their home to buy ours. After several attempts to contact American Servicing company they gave us until the end of April.
The new owners that were going to purchase our home had a buy for theirs and the closing date was the end of May. Our home would be closed at this time as well.
When we contacted American Servicing Company to let them no we needed only 30 more days and the home would be sold. They would get their money in full plus any past due lawyer fees etc.
American Servicing company could not be contacted for several weeks and then they said no. They wanted us out, even when we showed them the contract. We tried to move up the closing date with the people who wanted our home. They heard from their realistate person what was happening and ended up withdrawing from their contract. Because of American Servicing Company not waiting another 30 days we lost our buyer, and our home.
We had to move into a small rental so the kids could finish school. We just lost everything. Some new people ended up purchasing our home in October of 2006. American Servicing company still showes we owe them the full amount of the home they sold on us.
They will not even talk with me to clear this matter up. They took our home when we had it sold. This could of helped our family but they didn't care. Now we have credit that is so unrepairable we are unable to do anything. Our children were so effected by this as well as my husband and myself. Our 1st home we ever owned was gone and American Servicing company is to blame for this. How can a bank get away with playing with families lives.
More and more families lose their homes because banks like these get away with it. Why would a bank say no when the home was sold. Why could American Servicing Company not wait 30 more days. We are not bad people we were doing the right thing to help all parties. Thank you American Servicing Company for putting our family out in the street for not listening and for taking one thing in our lives we worked so hard to keep.

Bobby Womack, a colourful and highly influential R&B singer-songwriter who impacted artists from the Rolling Stones to Damon Albarn, has died. He was 70.
Womack's publicist Sonya Kolowrat said the singer died Friday but had no other details to provide.
Womack was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease two years ago and dealt with a number of health issues, including prostate cancer. Womack performed recently at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival and seemed in good health and spirits.
Womack's music caught the attention of the Stones in the 1960s and influenced many early rockers before fading from popular music for more than a decade.
Albarn and XL Recordings president Richard Russell helped Womack regain his career with 2012 comeback album The Bravest Man in the Universe.

Central Oklahoma Federal Credit Union - Davenport, OK - Phone: (918) 377-2341
Mortgages are loans which are given by lenders to pay for the purchase of real estate property, and have a specific time period and rate of interest for the payment. The borrowers, who are known as the 'mortgagors', give the lenders, also known as the 'mortgagees', a legal asset as a security against the loan. In Davenport, the borrowers may get mortgages either from financial establishments like banks directly, or from individuals who act as mediators between the bank and the borrower.
Mortgages in Davenport vary, depending on two main categories: the time period of the loan and the interest rate of the loan. Mortgages may be for 15 or 30 years, as per the time period in Davenport. Based on the interest rates, the mortgages are either fixed or variable.

A pretty place to stay in a quite interesting town. Great, convenient location near the fine restaurants and historical sites. The pictures show the quaint rooms, but pictures couldn't do justice to the wonderful breakfasts which come forth from that little inn kitchen!!!

My husband surprised me with a two night getaway to New Bern. I love New Bern and wanted to visit, but getting to stay in this lovely B&B was the icing on the cake. Michael and Marty were wonderful hosts and Marty can fix up a breakfast second to none! It was not only delicious, but looked like a work of art. All of the staff were extremely nice and we especially enjoyed our conversations with Ashley during breakfast. The room was so clean and every little extra you could imagine had already been imagined and put into place. Combine elegance with comfort and you have the Aerie B&B. At the front door was a signed that stated you enter as guests and leave as friends. This felt very much the case and we could not leave without a hug. I truly hope to return again one day.

We stayed two nights at the Aerie. The location is great & within walking distance to historic sites. Mike & Marty paid close attention to details from the moment we arrived. Our room was everything it was promised to be - extra clean with period furnishings, comfy bed with wonderful sheets, large bathroom, bath robes, & lots of extra touches that make you feel as if you truly stepped back in time. The evening reception was fun. Mike is a wealth of knowledge about places to eat dinner, & even called in reservations. Breakfast was first class with menu choices that made it hard to decide on just one. The food was served very quickly & was delicious. Thank you Mike & Marty for a great B&B experience!

We loved our trip to Aerie Bed and Breakfast. Everything about it was first class. Marty and Michael are wonderful host and I highly recommend a visit! We loved being able to walk everywhere. The shopping and dining in New Bern was very enjoyable.

My husband and I enjoyed the room and the company of the owners. The two homes were very beautiful and well kept. The Owners were very polite and generous people. The breakfast was our only "downside". The food was OK but less than we expected from the bed and breakfast.
Innkeeper Response
We are sadden to learn that our breakfast meal did not meet your expectations. Reading other reviews over many years we have heard only glowing comments about the fact that we offer three different entrees each day along with a starter, side of fruit and a breakfast meat as well as a choice of 3 juices. At most B&B's that is not the case. We hope you will let us know what the "downside" was in your meal by emailing us directly in order for us to address and correct any shortcomings on our in. Thank you

We stayed at the Aerie on 12/22 - the tree in the parlor was beautiful. Every room in the Inn was decorated beautifully! The breakfast in the morning was wonderful!! We had a wonderful time enjoying the Inn as well as New Bern. It was a great way to start the Christmas week. We will definately be back!!

We have stayed at other B&B's but this was the best by far. Staff and Owners were friendly and efficient. Would stay again in a heartbeat.
4.8 on January 20, 2016
You couldn't imagine a better B&B! The breakfasts are incredible with 3 choices for the entree, plus a starter! The hosts are so warm and welcoming! I'm sorry we experienced this fine place just as Marty and Michael announced their retirement. Only comment on the rooms is that I felt our small room had too much furniture in it. The chair in front of the closet area made it awkward to navigate.

My husband and I stayed here last week. Our bfasts were delicious and staff serving them was very nice. Liz, receptionist? was also very friendly and pleasant to speak with. Bed was very comfy.The owner, who Im not sure of her name as she never introduced herself to me was not at all friendly. I felt it was more of a "business" to her, rather then a "love" for her job and it showed. I was really turned off on our first night when i inquired where I could purchase a bottle of wine. It was 5p and she told me I could go down the street to the BP station. The fact of the matter is what about the social hour? I guess that depends on the owners mood. If you are going to advertise a social hour, then do it every night not when you feel like it. The Basin room way too cluttered with furniture for a tiny room. Put the tv on the wall and eliminate that giant cabinet .We have stayed at many B&B's so we know this is not a good example of how they are. I feel sorry if this was your first experience; you would get more attention at the local hotel.

Felt welcome upon arrival and the stay was perfect beginning to end. Cannot say enough good things about delicious breakfast too.

The Basin Street Room harkens back to when Samuel Street built the home c.1882, and this cozy room was the upstairs bath, kept comfortable by the fireplace, decoratively in place today. The name refers to the room's original purpose (Basin) and owner (Street) and also to New Orleans' famed promenade where your innkeepers enjoyed their honeymoon. Stylish artwork depicting the French Quarter lends sophisticated charm to this quaint room with a pencil-post queen bed.

Mary Ward (1891-1979) lived in the home her entire life and during her later years divided the house into several apartments, renting them out during World War II. In fact, the current door to the room was once a closet and now guests over six feet may need to 'duck' their heads to enter a room with an eleven foot ceiling! Tasteful appointments and refined decorative treatments make this quaint, warm-hued room one of our most popular. A smaller room, but delightful in every way.

I am very displeased with both companies. I know - I know I should have taken the 3 page (printed on both sides in very small print) contract home and read it over and over before signing. I am too trusting of fast talking decetpive agents.
I was of the understanding I was signing a 1 year contract, but find out it was for 4 years, with hidden charges of shipping fees, taxes, and processing fees that was never mentioned, and in fact I can't find some of them on the contract.
I now find that the processing fees are higher than I thought and some of them I am not sure is actually legal, or ethical at the least. I am going to my lawyer today to discuss this.
At least one more merchant in my building is also unhappy and confused about all of the unexpected charges.

As I understand it, Northern Leasing is a seperate company that they use when a merchant leases the equipment. NORTHERN LEASING IS THE RIPOFF COMPANY.
Central Payment voided the 4 year lease and gave me an inhouse lease with them for 1 year at the same rate, less the monthly insurance charge tacked on. They even gave me one months lease free.
I appreciate their fast response and help.
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?

FO: SImple Socks
This is my fourth pair since I started knitting at the beginning of 2012, I finished them last Sunday and I'm wearing them today to keep my tootsies warm! Apart from the rib they're just basic knitting, I'm eyeing up a simple patterned pair for my next ones. The wool is just cheap stuff from JoAnns, a Deborah Norville sock yarn which is a merino wool, bamboo and nylon mix in Mint.
Great socks. They look wonderfully warm and comfy, look good too. Socks are so satisfying to make, so lovely to wear. Your toes are surely loving the socks they're in. Were they top-down?
Very nice socks and they look nice and warm. You did a nice job!
Beautiful socks! Love those mint green stripes paired with the variegated yarn.
By the way, are you a kayaker (I noticed your avatar)? Wait! Don't answer that. I just read your intro post and see that you, indeed, ARE a kayaker! Hooray! Another kayak knitter--not that I mix the two hobbies, you understand; usually I'm too busy paddling and fishing to do any knitting on the water. My husband and I got "engagement" kayaks a little over 5 years ago. Fun! Fun!
Socks are top down, I've heard of toe up, two at a time and magic loop, but one thing at a time ladies! I don't think I'm a natural knitter, I have to really concentrate on what I'm doing and I don't find it easy to learn new techniques... but on the other hand I learnt to knit anyway and then taught myself socks so I suppose we have to start somewhere.
So far I'm liking the self patterning or striping yarn, it looks complicated when it isn't at all.
And Antares, you really made me laugh! "Last edited by Antares : Today at 02:50 PM. Reason: Cause I'm an idiot! "
Yes we kayak, I like kayaking on large lakes rather than rivers, my boat is 13 1/2 ft so the rivers can get a bit tight at times. We like to go camping and the kayaks and mountain bikes always go with us. Lots of fun.
Pretty!!! And really comfy-looking.
I want to tackle socks at some point too. Shooting for a hat next to go with the scarf I just finished. Then maybe socks if I feel ready for it.
Beautiful work and very nicely finished socks. Well done!
Oh, so this yarn is self-striping? That's cool. I sometimes agonize over what colors go together, so I love it when someone else decides for me (well, when I agree with their choice).
We have Wilderness System Tarpon 100s (10-foot sit-on-top kayaks rigged out for fishing), and we kayak everywhere we can--lakes, rivers, bayous, small ponds that used to be great big lakes (we're in a drought), etc. etc.
We like to camp, too, (we don't go nearly as often as we'd like), and we often take the kayaks with us. We also do a lot of day trips to nearby small ponds that used to be great big lakes.
Happy paddling and knitting to you!
Yeah, I didn't want plain sox and knew nothing about joining yarn or weaving in ends etc, so I went with the self striping yarns, part of the fun is seeing how they come out.
Here are the others I made last year so you can see more patterns and colours.
This was my first ever pair, Patons Kroy Socks Ragg Shades.
My second pair was in Sensations Bamboo and Ewe! I bought it for the name, loved it!!
And this pair I made for my husband. Red Heart, Heart and Sole in Toasted Almond.
The next pair I start will be for me and will be patterned so I've picked a plain yarn from my stash, another Deborah Norville yarn in a dusky pink, but I haven't started yet, hopefully this weekend as it's going to be really cold so I'll stay indoors.
Antares - If you have bayous then you must be in the South somewhere! It was 15F when I left home this morning for work, so we can only kayak Spring through Autumn. Our boats are Peception Carolina's and are large lake/ocean going ones with rudders, we can stay out for hours with them.
Oh, wow! All your socks are beautiful--nice choices on the colors you chose, too! Now, young lady, get your feet off the table! Oh never mind--your feet, your table!
Yes, I'm in Texas, where we have a bayou or two . . . or three. Our kayaks don't have rudders, but we, too, spend all day in them (with some breaks for important necessities, of course)--it's not hard to stay in them all day, especially when the fish are biting. :)

A lesson on Land, Air & Water can be used for teaching several different concepts. For example, use it to discuss Earth and what makes it unique from other planets. Explain how approximately 70% of the Earth's surface is covered in water and that the presence of water and oxygen in the air allows living organisms to survive on Earth. We also used a map of the world to show which portions of the earth are land and water. To help visualize land & water features, Montessori Print Shop has a great set of Aquatic & Land Feature Photos on sale right now. Check out those cards and many more items on sale here.
This lesson is also a great time to discuss various types of transportation and where they take place. For example, a boat drives in water, an airplane flies in the air and a car drives on land. We purchased Montessori Print Shop's Air, Land & Water Sorting Cards for $2.79 and sorted them under our jars of land (dirt), air & water. The boys were both VERY enthusiastic about the sorting.
If you add fire to the mix, you can discuss the classical 4 elements studied by ancient philosophers. It was believed that the 4 elements were the most simple and essential parts of everything that existed.
Here are some other great ideas from Montessori sites around the web:
If your children learn best through a visual aid or through imaginary play, create a Land, Air & Water mat with felt or construction paper. Montessori Mama has a beautifully made Land, Air & Water Mat you can use as an example. If your not crafty, check out this exquisite Land, Air & Water Quilt that Kylie, from How We Montessori, bought on etsy. Read more about their purchased quilt here.
A Bohemian Education has a great idea to utilize toys you probably already have in your own home. Place them in a basket and have your child sort them under hand-written "Land", "Air" & "Water" labels.
To the Lesson has a wonderful post sharing trays that are great supplements to the Land, Air & Water theme.
The book Montessori at Home! has a fun hands-on activity on page 172 called "Where land and water meet."
