REFUGEE SITUATON UPDATESeptember 11, 2015
Dear Travellers,
Although we really don't agree with the actions how our government is handling the refugee situation in Hungary, we would like to ensure you that HUNGARY AND BUDAPEST IS STILL VERY SAFE and calm. Refugees and migrants are concentrated around the Southern boarder and the International Train Station in Budapest. The city is safe and calm. Probably it is easier to approach the city by one of these BUS LINES: http://www.orangeways.com/en , http://www.studentagencybus.com , http://www.eurolines.hu/en – as sometimes the trains from Western Europe cancel the connections to Budapest. But media shows really bad picture, which we don't feel in the city.
Aventura tries to help refugees the way we can, we collect and encourage travellers to donate their unused stuff – clothes, sleeping bags, tents, that they don't want to carry an longer – and we distribute the donations to the Migration Aid Centers at the train stations.

"Friendly, convenient and fun!"
I stayed here 2 nights with my partner in the Africa room. All people working there were so lovely and accommodating. I think you get to experience it more when you're alone or looking to meet lots of people, whereas because we only stayed the 2 nights it was hard to do so... But anyway I really liked our stay, kitchen is practical and very clean, two showers for the ladies, laundry for 5€, lots of information given on things to do around Budapest and also leaflets for other countries if you're moving on. Be sure to check out the pinball museum nearby! There's also an Aldi round the corner

"Your award winning home in Budapest"
As already the drawing on the back of the pc monitor of the "reception" tells you, "Welcome home!" has everytime been my first expression when coming back to this cozy hostel (even then when I first time entered to the hostel in 2006 :)).
Now we stayed at the family apartment a couple of hundred meters from the hostel and 'home' is the word that describes also this place best. Aventura's family apartment has everything a young family needs.
Our group of five consisted of two adults, one 4 yo and almost 2 yo twins. Perfect accommodation for us! The hostel and the family apartment are perfectly located close to Nuygati train station, Margitsziget and the Flippermúzeum (don't forget to pay a visit. I left some more of their flyers at the hostel and to the family aptmnt because I took the last one ).
Thank you Agi, Eszter and rest of the lovely Aventura family for being one of the major reasons for coming back to your beautiful city of Budapest over and over again! Luckily we don't have to wait for more than 10 days to be back .

"Extremely unique place, it really felt like I was in some little Japan. The hosts were extremely friendly, and helpful. The part I liked the most about this place was it's greenliness, small little green ideas everywhere. Also this room has an adopted animal in the local Zoo. They also have this free food concept, where leaving guests could put their leftover food on a free food spot, and thus I had a free dinner, also could leave some food behind without feeling guilty of throwing it out."

Access issues inherited from Victoria Range
The Victoria Range was badly burnt in the fires of February 2013 but all areas are now open to climbing (Feb 2014). However there are access changes to the cliffs in the Eureka area.
All of the crags lie above the old vehicle track to Yanganaginj Njawi (Emu's Foot). This track may be closed at times making for substantially longer approaches. When Matthew's Track (seasonal 4WD) is open, it can be used until below the chosen cliff, shortening the length of the walk. The Jananginj Jawi track is gained from Red Rock Road about 5km north of Muline Creek. Matthew's Track is a further 1 km north.© (nmonteith)

Solutions for Chapter 14.C2
Company R has policy of pairing senior employees with relatively younger employees. This is aimed at boosting productivity. Pairs sit together, are privy to each calls, emails and share jobs and responsibilities.
Generation gap poses its own challenges. This arrangement ensures that new employees are nurtured earnestly as success of an older and experienced employee depends on the performance of newer employees. This arrangement is not manager subordinate relationship.
Pairing is an elaborate process in company R. It is done after extensive interviews and other assessments. Team and group ethos is emphasized in both selecting the pairs and conducting the company's affair.
Individual behaviors that are highlighted are attitude, personality, perception, learning and motivation. Out of this, learning is the most important component in this approach to work. The pairing is designed to impact significant training to new employees.
It is important that the learning the pairing imparts has more to do with behavior and job related learning. The older employees are carefully selected. Hence, new employee gets a chance to know what it takes to be successful.
Personality traits and attitude makes a successful corporate citizen. Being in position to know what each other is doing works as a powerful learning mechanism to develop the winning personality traits. It also works wonder for motivation and for the opportunity it provides the younger employees.

on November 28, 2013 - 12:01 AM
This has been the most common question of my week: "What are you doing for Thanksgiving?" My reply is: "In the morning I am going to visit my mother at the cemetery." Words I never thought I would speak, but hence the truth.
My dear mother passed away on a Thanksgiving morning. Never in a million years could you have told me that on that day of that year it would be her time to go. I have made as many trips to Mount Calvary these past two years as I have to Wegmans (which, at 46 with two teenagers, is a feat).
This past year, my mind has been filled with memories of my mother for most of my waking hours. Growing up, she was absolutely the holy grail of our family. Everyone communicated through her, looked out for her and went to her for advice. She was my twice-a-day phone call.
As crazy as this sounds, even though we all know this day eventually arrives, I was still in disbelief when it did. However, my subconscious knew that her dying on this day, on Thanksgiving Day, held a message for me.
So, these past 12 months, I could not shake this one simple question: Why did my mother pass away on Thanksgiving?
My mother was in constant motion. She was a single parent with two children, worked full time and always carved out some time to volunteer. On top of this overflowing plate, my mother had suffered with rheumatoid arthritis since she was 26. For those of you who are not familiar with this debilitating disease, it's like waking up in the morning and telling yourself to "go" and all the joints in your body say, "stop."
My mother was a sharp lady. She was smart and had big ideas. Her body at times crippled her ambition later in her life, because sometimes "stop" lasted for more than a little while. But for the most part, she was a silent struggler.
My mother was never a complainer. Arthritis did not define her. It was something she dealt with, and growing up she did not put this on my brother and me. She was "go" all the way. Her selflessness was remarkable and admirable.
One day, driving home from work, I was overcome with incredible sadness. I missed her so terribly that I had to pull off to the side of the road because hot tears were pouring from my eyes and I could not see the road in front of me. While sitting in my car for what seemed to be a good hour feeling sorry for myself, a new thought came to me that suddenly chased away some of the bitter sadness. I finally had the answer to my question: My mother was grateful every day.
She was just plain thankful all of the time. It wasn't a once-a-year reflection for her; it was a yearlong recognition. She was grateful for it all – her children, her parents, her brother, her family, her friends, her job, her volunteer work. Everyday gratefulness. The thankfulness in Thanksgiving was her gratefulness through the year.
This thought made perfect sense. It is a good lesson and one to share.
Meanwhile, I will stop by the cemetery this morning because, as much as it has become my routine, I enjoy going to her spot. And in my own way, I will let my family and friends know that I am grateful for all of them.
Somehow I think my mother will always be my guidepost in my thoughts.

The GOP frontrunner decided to cancel the rally due to security concerns after large groups of protestors took to the streets in an anti-trump movement, the Associated Press reports.
"Mr. Trump just arrived in Chicago and after meeting with law enforcement has determined that for the safety of all of the tens of thousands of people that have gathered in and around the arena, tonight's rally will be postponed to another date," a statement from Trump's campaign reportedly said. "Thank you very much for you attendance and please go in peace."
The AP adds that once Trump announced the event was postponed, protestors cheered while supporters of the real-estate mogul began a chant of their own: "We want Trump!"
According to the Chicago Tribune, protestors did appear inside the University of Illinois-Chicago Pavilion prior to Trump's scheduled arrival but were removed. There were also scenes of violent scuffles breaking out, captured live by cable news services.
Moments before an official announced that Trump would not continue with tonight's rally, a female protestor reportedly yelled "F--- Trump" as she held a "No Hate" sign. In response, supporters in the upper level of the Pavilion threw debris at her, the Tribune reports.
While tensions ran high as fans and foes awaited Trumps arrival, the Tribune reports that concerns over the rally started long before Friday when a student leader questioned how security was going to be handled and who would finance it. The student reportedly started a petition that received more than 40,00 signatures.
24 hours before the scheduled rally, Latino community leaders set up a 24-hour vigil, the newspaper adds.
Holding up a sign that traded a swastika for the "u" in Republican, a Chicago native and city paramedic Deirdre Fennessy told the publication "Chicagoans don't want him here."
#PeriodsAreNotAnInsult: Women Are Tweeting Donald Trump about Their Periods
However, rally goers expressed different sentiments, telling the Tribune that they weren't "paying attention" to the protestors.
In a statement obtained by Fox, Trump said that canceling the event was a smart move.
"What we did was intelligent," Trump said. "A very good decision ... a wise decision. If we had the really, I think it would not have been a good situation."
He also added, "Our First Amendment rights have been violated."
Lately, Trump rallies have been at the center of conversation as they continue to incite protests and violent backlash. At a recent event, a supporter of the billionaire businessman was arrested after punching a protestor in the face.
According to CNN, 78-year-old John McGraw was taken into custody at a North Carolina rally, and said in an interview following the event that the protestor "deserved it."
"The next time we see him, we might have to kill him. We don't know who he is. He might be with a terrorist organization," McGraw said, adding that the man was not acting "like an American."
Despite calling some protestors "bad dudes," who "have done bad things," Trump said at the last GOP debate that he does not condone violent behavior.

How are Jem and Scout treated at Calpurnia's church in To Kill a Mockingbird?
1 Answer | Add Yours
Jem and Scout are treated with the utmost respect from the congregation of the First Purchase Church--with one exception. When Calpurnia's friends first saw her with Jem and Scout,
... the men stepped back and took off their hats; the women crossed their arms at their waists, weekday gestures of respectful attention.
But one woman objected to the presence of the white children at the black church.
"I wants to know why you bringin' white chillun to nigger church."
The question came from Lula, a "bullet-headed" woman with an "Indian-bow mouth." She didn't care for Cal's decision to accompany Jem and Scout.
"... they got their church, we got our'n."
Lula's objection to their presence caused Jem to tell Cal that they should return home, but in a flash, the remainder of the congregation soon crowded Lula out of the way, and
When I looked down the pathway again, Lula was gone.
After that, Jem and Scout were made to feel at home. Reverend Sykes "led us to the front pew," announced their presence from the pulpit, and he made time to speak with the children afterwards. Scout is so impressed that she asks Cal if she can visit her at her own house in the Quarters some day.

Palouse Reporter Rachel Dubrovin introduces us to the dispatcher and explains how her quick thinking prevented a tragedy.
"Police and fire, this is Haley," said Whitcom 911 Dispatcher Haley Emery.
Whitcom is the 911 dispatch center for many emergency response agencies in Whitman County, Asotin County and Moscow.
"We're just the very beginning," said Emery.
"Usually when they're calling you, it's the worst day of their life," said Whitcom Operations Manager Wendy Berrett. "You know, they're not calling you because they're having a great day."
And for dispatcher Haley Emery, one day is particularly memorable. On October 22nd, she took a call and couldn't hear anyone on the other line.
"You kind of get a gut feeling, and instantly I knew something was different from a normal, just pocket dial," said Emery.
Emery asked the caller to push a button if they were experiencing an emergency.
"The patient immediately pushed a button, so I knew that something was wrong," said Emery.
Even though the caller I-D only showed a phone number Emery was able to link it to an address from a previous call and send Moscow paramedics to the correct location.
"And just started asking questions like, 'Is this your address? If so, push a button so I know,'" said Emery.
Moscow paramedics confirmed that the woman lived.
"That caller had trouble communicating," said Moscow Volunteer Fire Department EMS Division Chief David Reynolds. "And that trouble was from a medical condition. So the dispatcher had to be really creative to figure out what the problem was, and where the caller was, and kind of sort through, not the greatest information to get the right result."
"It happened so fast that even after I hung up, I almost didn't even know what I had just done and what my fellow dispatchers had just done because it went really fast," said Emery.
It was a stressful situation with a happy ending thanks to this dispatcher's quick thinking.
"We have a very important job, and we have a lot of great dispatchers," said Berrett. "And we're really lucky."
The Whitcom headquarters is located in Pullman, and they provide service to more than 50 local agencies.

A chapter from Marco Rubio's political career in Florida that's well known here at home is gaining national attention now that he's facing increased scrutiny amid the presidential race: his personal finance problems.
During last week's GOP debate, the subject of his past personal finance problems came to light in a question from one of the CNBC debate moderators:
"Sen. Rubio, you yourself have said that you've had issues. You have a lack of bookkeeping skills," Quick said, quoting Rubio's 2012 book An American Son before listing several examples. "You accidentally inter-mingled campaign money with your personal money. You faced foreclosure on a second home that you bought. And just last year, you liquidated a $68,000 retirement fund. That's something that cost you thousands of dollars in taxes and penalties.
"In terms of all of that, it raises the question whether you have the maturity and the wisdom to lead this $17 trillion economy. What do you say?" she asked.
Rubio's answer was dismissive as he dodged the question altogether with this:
"Well, you just listed a litany of discredited attacks from Democrats and my political opponents, and I'm not gonna waste 60 seconds detailing them all."
There's a good reason for Rubio not wanting to "waste 60 seconds detailing them all." That's because it would take much longer to do so. There's a long list. A list that has far from been "discredited" as he claims, and it isn't just the Democrats and his political opponents "attacking" him for them. In fact, some of the interest in his personal finances "inter-mingled" with that of the Republican Party of Florida came from the FBI and the IRS back in 2010, not to mention news outlets. In fact, while Rubio professes to be the victim of partisan attacks, his financial problems have been well documented and he knows it.

President Barack Obama's administration is likely to open a criminal investigation into the leaking of highly classified documents that revealed the secret surveillance of Americans' telephone and email traffic, U.S. officials said on Friday.
Such investigations typically begin after an agency that believes its secrets have been leaked without authorization files a complaint with the Justice Department.
It was unclear on Friday whether a complaint had been submitted by the publicity-shy National Security Agency, which was most directly involved in the collection of trillions of telephone and email communications.

This management seems to be the same as the old! No P/R, lack of information to stockholders and no notice of quarterly report dates till mandatory. If anybody knows or hears anything about this company please let us know. We sure as heck are getting nothing from this management.
If they follow the same script they did with the 4th quarter/annual report, they will just release the Q1 report at the last minute without a cc or advance notice. I believe that the last day for filing would be Dec. 10th, so we've got a week to go. I think that because the trading volume and interest in this stock is so low, it's possible for someone to push (I was going to say manipulate) the price around, but there are other possibilities.
Fiscal Q1 ended Oct31, and remember that Steel revealed in an SEC filing on Oct28 that they had secured a $50M revolving line of credit from PNC [dated 10/23] secured by their MLNK securities holdings, with which they could POSSIBLY do an acquisition to fold into MLNK. The idea, of course, would be to use their NOLs to shield income and thus realize their value. Go to the MLNK headlines and read the Oct26 SA article, "ModusLink: An Operational Turnaround, A Big Hidden Asset, An Activist, And A Low Valuation", which makes many of these points.
I'm not sure whether Steel is holding its cards close to the vest not wanting competitors to know what it's up to, or whether it's their management style to keep their shareholders in the dark, but I suspect that the wheels are turning behind the scenes and we'll eventually find out what they're up to. One other possible venue for information would be the annual meeting Dec18, if anyone is attending... And, of course, they could always do a cc at some point in the future.
all IMHO.
#$%$...Steel never tipped their hand with Handy & Harmon...never knew when earnings would be announced, deals, etc I suspect its just good business not to be suggesting or locking in dates unless you can hit them. Steel made me good money with HNH; I got out to soon...not this time.
You are right on with an acquisition...
Hey Thanks for your input, greatly appreciated.

It's one of America's most hot-button issues in sports right now: Should young children be allowed to play tackle football? Studies and parents say no. It's far too dangerous for children to play until their teenage years. But some believe real football not only builds character in children, but teaches kids discipline and the skills necessary to be great at the game. What do you think? Scroll to read more and vote below!
Let's face it: children tackling each other is dangerous because professional NFL players tackling each other is dangerous. It's even more problematic to allow children to be injured at a younger age let alone in their adulthood for entertainment. Many believe youth shouldn't play tackle football until 14 or 15 years old.
This is the discussion football needs: Chicago @suntimes editorial: Beware of tackle football for young children. https://t.co/QmRyX22gTo— Chris Nowinski (@ChrisNowinski1) September 6, 2016
Many parents and critics say kids shouldn't play tackle football because it's unsafe.
Thank you @dannykanell for supporting our argument that tackle football is not an approprite activity for children! https://t.co/9Hd4GqJbgU— Chris Nowinski (@ChrisNowinski1) September 9, 2016
Ann McKee, director of the Boston University CTE Center in Massachusetts, says it's riskier for children to play tackle football. Children are at risk of brain injuries, and this can cause memory loss, confusion and/or anger issues at an early age.
Joey Blethen, recreation director in Tega Cay, S.C., told Sports Illustrated's Muscle and Medicine, he would feel responsible if any child was hurt playing tackle football. Tega Cay made the decision to keep kids safe by banning kids ages 5 to 11 from tackle football. Instead, children at this age play flag football only.
The impetus for the decision arose last November when Blethen saw an ABC news report about the 11 high school football players across the country who died in 2015 (four from head trauma). "I asked myself a question," said Blethen. "Could I live with myself if a participant in our tackle football program were to become seriously injured, paralyzed or even worse?"
On the other hand, tackle football not only builds skills, but character in children. Here's a list of more qualities that children get from football.
Some people believe there are too many rules and regulations that prevent kids from being active and having fun. Let kids play real football and be kids!

Children playing tackle football has been a thing for a long time! Has there really been that many casualties to completely rule it out before their teenage years?
@malleylimbaugh I bet a million kids put these on and played tackle football and lived to tell about it. https://t.co/SHgaAJARCJ— Alex Stewart (@LarryLex) September 5, 2016
Some parents support their child's growth by allowing them not only to play tackle football, but by allowing them to discover their own true character and talent. What's so wrong with that?
I let my kids play fag football & tackle football, not cause I want them to but because they want to, whatever they wanna do I'll support it— MonsterOfTheTriState (@SCAR_179NY) April 10, 2016

With the arrival of Kharma (formerly Awesome Kong) into the WWE, many of the viewers are feeling good about the direction of the Divas division.
For the first time in a long time, there may be some decent wrestling going on rather than just the "barbie dolls" rolling around for a couple of minutes to fill time (not that I have a problem with that).
I'm only going to be looking at the WWE Divas of past and present.
I am taking into account accomplishments from other wrestling companies as long as they spent some time with WWE.
This isn't a "Who's the Best Looking" countdown, but rather a look at some of the most talented female wrestlers in the game, whether that be in the ring or lurking on the outside.
So without further ado, one guy's opinion of the Top 25 Wrestling Divas of All Time...

The Maxx gets its name by having an extremely large battery, 3500mAh, under a Kevlar back plate that both looks and feels better than its smaller sibling the Droid Ultra. The Maxx also has 32GB of storage and wireless charging, both of which are unavailable on the Ultra.
Like the Droid Ultra and Moto X, the Droid Maxx has all of Motorola's new features such as Touchless Control, Active Display and Trusted Bluetooth Devices, which offer a great experience overall. The Droid Maxx was announced at a Verizon and Motorola event in New York City in July of 2013.

MK Electric Astral will sex-up your lighting, gives iPhone controlPocket-lint
The MK Electric Astral range of switches will let you automate your home lights, and more, with simple and customisable controls from an iPad or iPhone.
MK Electric is a name you'll recognise. You'll have seen its products stuck to walls all over the place, although you probably associate it more with a standard white plastic plug socket than the latest in iPhone-controlled lighting.
We know what you're thinking – can light switches be sexy? Ask any man standing in front of the array of designs in B&Q, arguing with his other half, and you'll agree that a switch isn't just a switch: it's a lifestyle choice (so says Mrs Pocket-lint and we wouldn't dare argue).
Fortunately the MK Astral line offers a range of finishes to match whatever décor you want in your home and, most importantly, you can change the facia at a whim, because they are very easy to remove with no tools.
There's a good reason for that too, because once you have Astral in your house, you won't want to let it go. The faceplace is pretty much only that: the real clever part sits behind in the body of the switch unit.
The switch itself will take your standard wiring connections and fits into a regular 35mm British standard back box, so you can retro fit Astral into an existing lighting system. Essentially, all you have to do is swap your existing vanilla light switch for an Astral unit. For example, if you have a two gang switch, you'll swap for a two gang Astral unit, or a dimmer if you prefer.
But rather than just giving you a switch mechanism, Astral also incorporates Z-Wave, a wireless RF protocol used in home automation. The Z-Wave system means each Astral unit will both send and receive within a MESH network to handle commands.
The benefit of this is that you have a network that knows what's going on and your remote needs to talk only to the nearest node (light switch) to relay the command across the network. This means that range essentially isn't a problem across larger properties.
A remote is available as part of the Astral range, but naturally you'll want to take advantage of the easy customisation that the iOS app offers (it's free and supports iPod touch, iPad and iPhone). The app is just about to be updated (the new version is pictured in our lead image) and MK Electric tells us that an Android app is in development.
To enable iOS control, you'll have to connect the Smart Interface to your router, giving you access through your Wi-Fi network. The Smart Interface then translates your Wi-Fi commands to Z-Wave to control the switches.
Because the whole system works on two-way communication, you can see what devices are on or off from your iOS device at any time, so you can peer at your phone to see if your pesky kids have turned their bedroom light back on - and remotely turn it off again.
You can also setup 3G access manually, so you can control your home lighting (and other items in the Astral range) when away from home, useful to check that you turned off the bathroom light as you run for the bus.
You can add and remove devices as you wish, and change the function of switches - so, for example, you could have a two gang switch, one of which turns off all the lights in the house, or the external lights for security, for example.
But that's not all. There is a battery-powered switch available too, so if your light switch is in the wrong place in the room, you can simply add another by mounting it on the wall. Another useful situation for this battery switch might be a bathroom, where you can't normally have a mains switch, only a pull cord.
We had the chance to see it all in action; it's logical and simple to set up and customising controls through the app is really easy. Installation is pretty much a breeze, as Astral will fit into a standard 35mm British standard backbox, already in place in many properties.
The app also allows you to set "scenes", so you could have a scene for watching movies, or house parties, or romantic dinners, or simply for night settings across the house.
One clever feature is a holiday mode. Enable the holiday mode and Astral will repeat the lighting patterns from the preceeding 24 hours, with a 30 min window to make it appear as though it isn't scheduled on a timer. It's clever stuff.
Also in the range are PIR devices, blind controllers and plug adapters so you can have power going to mains lamps, rather than lights on your lighting circuit. The blind controller means you can close blinds remotely, with a slider in the app to set the position.
The beauty of Astral is that you don't have to change any wiring or change the light fittings themselves. Naturally, if you want a dimmer, you'll have to have lights that can be dimmed.
Of course, sexing up your lighting and getting iPhone control is going to cost you a little more than buying standard white, or brushed aluminium, switches. Typically a system like Astral is installed through a company specialising in home automation on high-end residential projects, however the lighting system alone could be installed easily by any competent DIY enthusiast or electrician.
MK Electric told us that realistically you'd be able to retrofit a typical four-bedroom house for around £1500 and Astral can be sourced from any MK Electric approved stockist. You can find it at http://www.electric-center.co.uk/, for example, so give them a ring if you're interested.

This English Tudor carriage house has a newly renovated second story apartment containing a large open loft space suitable for a couple.
There is a beautifully furnished living room with its classic leather couch and over sized chairs invite you to just curl up with a good book and relax. The tastefully designed kitchen-dining area contain a farm table with seating for four. It is well equipped for the gourmet cook in you (or well stocked take-out menus from local restaurants.)
The comfortable bedroom area with its warm earth tones and queen sized bed, with French doors leading to a Juliette balcony compliment this space. The newly designed bathroom with tile floor and stall shower is equipped with plush white cotton towels.
Situated on a 1 acre parcel with a large Tudor home, adjacent views of a horse farm, mountain vistas and a golf course. The carriage house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood on the edge of town. Minutes from the old stockade district of Kingston. Explore its many shops, museums, restaurants, galleries, seasonal farmers market and its lively arts science.
Kingston, the first capital of New York state, offering walking tours of the historic stockade, with its many museums. The downtown strand area with its access to the Hudson River is ideal for exploring Kingston's historical past, its downtown area is a vibrant area for restaurants, cafes, galleries, boat excursions on the river or just relax and people watch.
This area is the perfect home base for exploring the surrounding area featuring, the popular Culinary Institute of America n Hyde Park, Bard College with its famous Performing Arts Center, Sunny New Paltz, Marist and Vassar Colleges.
Rich in history, Ulster County has been enchanting visitors with its picturesque beauty since Dutch explorers arrived in 1616. Bordered by the Hudson River and the renowned Catskill Mountains, Ulster County is home to Woodstock, the Artists Enclave, the Shawangunk Ridge (world famous for the best rock climbing on the East Coast). Also for the equestrians we have hits, horses in the sun, for international horse shows and events.
Keywords: Carriage House
Tony and I purchased Ambleside, the propertys name in 2005 and have restored it back to its full grandure. It was originally built in 1931 as a 12 acre horse farm and still has the stables with the carriage house apartment upstairs. We had to completely renovate it as it was in total despair and now we have a fantastic place where our guests can come for a wonderful getaway.
Angelo Bruno purchased this apartment in 2005
We were very lucky to acquire Ambleside and it truely was a labor of love to bring it back. Thankfully, almost all of the original details were in tact and being in the design business we new just what to do.
Relax, enjoy, tour the area, it is filled with things to do or stay in the loft, close the door and completely get away from it all!
Taken from our guestbook,
Thanks so very much for such a wonderful space to host our family Christmas celebration!The loft apartment is perfect, and we felt very warmly welcomed.Dinner for eight,1 goose, 1 pheasant, beautiful kitchen, everything so delightful. And thank you for the extra chairs! Warm wishes for a wonderful holiday and we hope to be back.
Teresa and Michael, Pasadena, CA.
We stayed 5 days in the upstairs loft! That week was particularly hot and humid, however the loft had two air conditioners to insure our comfort. We were extremely comfortable! The space itself was clean, modern and nicely decorated, all our needs were met and and we absolutely will stay again! Thank you Angelo for a wonderful space and for giving us our privacy.
Nice decor. Clean. Comfortable. Quite. Nice location. Had working wifi that was way to use. TV was easy to operate. Owner was helpful with local information. Beautiful yard.
My love and I went to the carriage house to celebrate his birthday away from the hustle of our city lives. Enterprise was able to pick us up so that we could rent a vehicle. After purchasing some groceries, we made this place our home for 5 days. It was so relaxing and beautifully kept that on our first full day there we did absolutely nothing. Everything we needed was readily available. The quiet does not take long to get used to; even the sound of the trains in the far distance did not disturb our peace. Angelo could not be more warm and welcoming. He provided helpful information upon our arrival and we used his suggestions to plan the rest of our stay. The walk through the neighborhood was poetic and we were greeted kindly by everyone we met. It almost felt as if we were in a southern town instead of upstate NY. By the time we left, it felt as if we were leaving a new friend. We will be back as this will become our private escape when we need to decompress.
This property was exactly as presented on your website. Actually, the place was much bigger in person that it appeared in the pictures on line. It was the perfect place for a getaway for two. We used it as our launching pad for site-seeing in the Hudson River Valley.
Nearby restaurants were really good. Angelo and Anthony couldn't have been nicer. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay.
It is hard to say how much the Kingston Carriage House Loft exceeded our expectations. It's not obvious, for example, that while carriage house is close to everything in Kingston ("five to ten minutes" is the standard) it is perched on the edge of a cuesta with mountains in the distance and fields filled with horses. Being at the end of the road means no traffic noise, and the loft itself is far enough from the main house that you enjoy a sense of privacy and cosiness. The apartment itself is a spacious long room punctuated by the entry stair and dining/kitchen area. The ceiling is loft-like but high enough to make the room feel airy, and the windows let in good light in the morning and evening. The kitchen has everything to entertain a small group, but Kingston's many good eating places make this a non-necessity. Angelo, the host, was the BEST. He gave us a good introduction and some advice for the stay. He was available but not otherwise paying attention to us. We felt easy in coming and going. This is a super value for anyone wanting to enjoy this part of the Hudson while, at the same time, enjoying an easy commute or train-ride to New York City.
What a great place! Quiet, easy, beautiful--a real find. Wish we'd known about this wonderful place during the last four years our son was in college--we'd stayed here every time!

There should be a notice before every prediction article on this site that notes that predictions are just that not an accurate pick for who will win every weekend.
After all, who could have predicted that a 20-year-old Nationwide Series regular in his second career Sprint Cup race named Trevor Bayne would win the Daytona 500? Who could have predicted that Jeff Gordon would win at Phoenix to break a lengthy winless drought? Who could have predicted that last weekend's race at Auto Club Speedway would feature a dull 245 laps and a thrilling final five laps?
With this in mind, here's a look at one writer's predictions of who will visit Victory Lane throughout the duration of the 2011 Sprint Cup season.

Fourth of July gas prices highest since 2008
Good news: This summer's steady rise in prices has slowed down
For once, some good news at the gasoline pump: The price for a gallon of regular appears to have stopped its steady rise of the past few weeks.
That's not much consolation for the estimated 40 million of us who will be filling up and hitting the road this week for the July Fourth holiday, the biggest travel weekend of the summer.
Pump prices haven't been this high at this time of year since 2008, according to automotive organization AAA.
Experts say prices are up primarily because folks living in and around major oil producing regions in the world, especially Iraq, can't seem to get along.
"Oil prices are higher because of the destabilization of Iraq," Ethan Bellamy, senior energy analyst at Robert W. Baird & Co., said in an email. "The more strife in Iraq, the more potential for Iraq's more than 3 million barrels per day of production to be disrupted."
Get used to it, energy market watchers say.
"There are just so many hot spots," said Jim Ritterbusch, president of Ritterbusch and Associates, an oil trading and advisory firm in Chicago. "If it's not Iraq it's going to be Libya. If it's not Libya, it's going to be Nigeria or Sudan. It's just a long list.
"None of us knows what is going to happen in the Middle East. We just know something is going to happen somewhere."
The national average price per gallon on Monday was $3.70, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration's weekly price report. A year earlier, the national average was 20 cents lower at about $3.50 a gallon. But the price has barely budged from a month ago.
In metro Milwaukee, where reformulated gasoline is required to meet clean air standards, the price was $3.77 on Tuesday, according to AAA.
Just like the situation nationally, that price was unchanged from a month ago. But it was 36.9 cents a gallon more than at the same time a year ago.
For a car with a 20-gallon gas tank, that's an extra $7.38 per fill-up being spent by motorists this year.
Among metro areas in Wisconsin, AAA says Madison had the cheapest gas on Tuesday at $3.60 a gallon. If you're heading south for the holiday, you might want to try to avoid filling up anywhere near Chicago. The Chicago metro area price was $3.98 on Tuesday, up from $3.92 a year ago.
Taps into other spending
While not as big a shock to the American economy as some of the rapid price spikes of the recent past, the increase eventually will make its way into the broader economy, if it hasn't already.
"It taps into your other spending," said Abdur Chowdhury, an economics professor at Marquette University. "You think about whether you should go to another Brewers game or whether you should have another dinner in an expensive restaurant.
"People try to cut back in other areas a little bit. It does redirect consumption from one area to another."
A sampling of motorists filling their tanks at stations in Milwaukee on Tuesday seemed to suggest that might be happening already.
Charles McLaurin was filling up at a gas station where the price was $3.89.
McLaurin won't be traveling for the holiday because he'll be working, but he said price increases have pushed the weekly cost of his commute from Brown Deer to the area around Mitchell International Airport from $80 to more than $100 in gasoline during the past four months.
Jenise Burns of Milwaukee said gasoline prices have made it so she can't afford to travel for the July Fourth holiday. "It's too high," Burns said.
This year she'll be taking her grandchildren to a nearby park for the holiday, she said.
U.S. production helps
The price at the pump would be higher if the United States hadn't increased its own oil production, experts say.
The 2 million to 3 million barrels a day that the market expects to be lopped off at any given time by Middle East unrest has been offset by 2 million to 3 million barrels per day of increased production in the U.S.
"If it hadn't been for the increase in U.S. production, boy, I wouldn't want to talk about how high gasoline prices would be right now," Ritterbusch said. "If it wasn't for that, we'd all be driving Priuses."
Still, the extra U.S. production — made possible in part by new drilling technologies — isn't going to insulate the cost of gasoline in the U.S. from the vagaries of the global markets.
"Although we are more secure from a supply standpoint than we have been in decades, the U.S. still imports a substantial amount of crude oil, linking us to the global oil market," Bellamy said. "Energy independence is a vapid concept used by politicians to pander to voters. Even if we produced every barrel of oil we needed domestically, we would still be tied to oil prices by way of oil's impact on the global economy.
"This is why we protect the strategic resources in the Middle East even when we don't necessarily buy all the oil from those fields we are protecting."
Bellamy expects pump prices to bounce around quite a bit, mirroring the uncertainty in the oil market.
"We expect increased oil price volatility," he said. "$15 (a barrel) moves in either direction would not surprise me depending on how the situation in the Middle East progresses. Gasoline prices should continue to track higher oil prices given that refiners sell fuel into a global marketplace dictated by factors largely outside of our borders."

Quick Links to Current SAFE Horses
Day of Caring 2016 — Thank you, Allytics!
Thanks to United Way of King County, September 23rd, 2016 witnessed excellent changes at Save a Forgotten Equine (SAFE) in Woodinville. As part of the nonprofit's annual Day of Caring event, 50 volunteers from the Redmond-based company Allytics ventured out of their office for a day of team building hard work at SAFE's farm on Hollywood Hill in Woodinville. Under gray and drizzly skies, the group from Allytics divided into teams to tackle major construction projects.
With the help of core SAFE volunteers acting as project leads, the Allytics team — including their executive staff — dug out an area to be used as a wash rack for the horses. installing drainage pipes, covering the area with secure footing, and tamping down new gravel. Another team moved hundreds of yards of earth and rock to sculpt a garden out of an unused area in the pasture. Many strong backs worked an auger to dig holes for approximately 50 fence posts and install over 200 feet of pasture fencing. Two more Allytics teams erected shelters in the pasture to protect the horses from the elements. Other teams successfully completed smaller projects like painting fences, moving bark, and moving our round pen to the covered arena for the winter.
SAFE staff and volunteers were grateful to be part of Day of Caring 2016. The work the Allytics team provided moved SAFE facilities projects far ahead of what could have been done with our regular core of volunteers. Thank you, Allytics! We hope to see you back again next year.

"Small card with soft colors—perfect. Text easy to customize and to place. Wanted an 'I Wish for You...' Card for baby shower, and this fit the bill perfectly."
"These cards are really cute and fun! I love the pink, it is a great shade! These could be for a child or grown up and I love the scalloped edges! Makes them fun!"
"I love the elegant design with flowers that appear almost hand-painted in water colors on both sides and the texture of the paper is very nice. The teal color is my favorite and appropriate for either male or female receivers."
"I thought it was so intuitive putting this together and it came out so beautifully - better than I was expecting. The paper is very thick and the colors are pale (maybe a bit lighter than I was expecting). I made these as a thank you letter for my toddler daughter for when she gets presents from friends/ family so she can send out her own Thank You cards and her picture is on the back for family that don't see her too often. Can't wait to get these again next year when she gets a bit bigger and we can pick out another design."
"Overall I was very pleased with this card. I read the reviews before I purchased it so I knew to expect the texture verses a flat card; however, even though the paper wasn't completely smooth, I didn't have a hard time writing on it at all. It has the perfect coloring for what I was looking for, and it looks just like the picture available on the webiste. Also, it is the perfect size for a thank you card with just the right amount of space to write."

The first month of the 2012-13 NBA season has provided a small sample size with which we can begin to evaluate players and teams.
While it will be difficult to get a complete reading on each team's standing before the new year, we have seen some young players explode onto the scene as well has some hyped super-teams falter in the early going.
There will always be constants like the Miami Heat and Oklahoma City Thunder, but here we present to you a list of winners and losers in the NBA after one month of play.
