I was recently invited to what's called a "baby moon" trip with my buddy. His wife was due to give birth to their daughter a few months from then and she wanted him to have one last good hurrah in the wilderness before the child came (Update: the child arrived...and is beautiful).
So, five of us packed our bags and headed for Asheville, North Carolina, for a weekend at a lakehouse: climbing, swimming, grilling out, and relaxing.
We decided to not particularly have any plans so that we could all take one collective breath from our normal schedule. This was a massively good decision...except for one logistic. Our climbing trip.
When looking for green in Paris, there are many places to go, but only one that will change your life—one way or another. And that place is Bois de Boulogne.
Established by Louis Napolean over 150 years ago, this park (which is over 2,000 acres) literally carries within it the unexpected. There you can find a hippodrome, two man-made lakes, a massive forest, the famed Roland Garros tennis facility, and much much more.
When I landed in London, I hoped that the largest swatch of land I was going to see would be bigger than the football pitch at White Hart Lane, but I had no need to worry. These four stunners, in particular, welcomed me to this 2,000-year-old city with open arms:
Greenwich Park—Home of the Prime Meridian and large patches of rolling green hills, interspersed with forests. I couldn't help but feel like Greenwich was older and more historied than many places I went in London. This was verified when I stumbled upon the marked ruins of a Roman Era structure. Go here if you like science, history, and beautiful scenery. (Bonus: you can tour a 150-year-old English clipper called the "Cutty Sark," though you have to pay to get in.)
When I stepped off the train in the Irish coastal town of Bray, I had no idea what to expect. My heart was longing for the outdoors so much that I only knew I was going to someplace that others said was beautiful.
As I wound through the alleys and broad roads to get to the beach, the tranquility of the town wrapped me in its arms. As I stepped on the stone beach and looked out as far as the overcast sky would let me, I pretended I could see Wales and that I'd just sailed in on a wooden cargo ship. Slowly, my mind—which had been so busy and full in the previous months—began to empty. I by-passed the walkway full of others seeking respite in the beauty of nature and trudged along the beach until I came to the trail. Bray to Greystones.
I've been planning a series of solo hiking adventures by myself. I know that I'm breaking the golden rule of never hiking alone, but sue me—vacation allowances with friends don't always overlap and plans sometimes don't pan out. That's just life. With that in mind, I made myself a survival kit—an essential packet of goodies meant to aid me in the unlikely event of a dangerous situation while I'm all by my lonesome.
These are the items I personally deem as important, after much research, personal experience, and the recommendations of others:
1. Navigation tools. I carry a small compass (which works best when you have a map or already know which direction you are and need to travel).
The massive lakes surrounding the state of Michigan are not the only things great about the fabulous state to the north.
Here are three of the reasons I love it so, and why you should probably consider visiting:
The Outdoors
The place is a veritable playground of wonderfulness.
Michigan has the longest freshwater shoreline of any political subdivision in the world, is the largest state—in terms of area—east of the Mississippi River, and has over 10,000 lakes (you're never more than 6 miles from an inland lake at anytime).
The five-year anniversary of having my feet in Vibram Fivefingers is right around the corner and I'm ready to celebrate. Those things have been with me for countless adventures. Running, hiking, tubing, gardening, travel, I could go on.
But to me, aside from all the reasons I enjoy the shoes, the thing that stands out the most about them to me now is that they've lasted as long as they have. It's pretty ridiculous, actually.
I don't wear them every day, but most of them I wear weekly. And all of them I've had more than 3 or 4 years.
I recently was given some amazing plants for free (for you green thumbs, yerba santa, yucca, chaya, and papaya). The problem was, I got each of them late in the day and they had to be planted in the ground as soon as possble. This meant I'd have to plant in the dark.
So, when I got home, I ran inside and immediately grabbed my Black Diamond Zenix headlamp. It's been so long since I've purchased it that I had no idea what the style name is (I looked it up), but who cares?, because it still works capitally.
When I moved to downtown Orlando, just over a year ago, there was one purchase that assisted me in both saving money and enjoying the city to the maximum: a bicycle.
Forget gas; I'll pedal.
And if you know anything about Florida, you know that it rains. A lot. In the summer, it is fairly incessant. To ride, I need a bag that is waterproof to keep certain items dry.
Previously, I had a DryComp Ridge Sack (primarily used around the water) that was a wonder, but the piping on the shoulder straps broke when one of my friends was borrowing it last year. The main reason I took exception to the breakage was because that piping held on the two pieces of chest strap that buckled in the middle. With the piping busted, if I cranked the straps tight, the plastic attachment on the chest straps would slide right off the piping and be rendered useless.
Many people have asked the question "How long do Fivefingers last?" While I think this is a good question, in principle, it's much more difficult to explain than one might think.
And it starts with, "It depends..."
THE ISSUE//Frequency and Comparision to Running Shoes
This may sound obvious, but it's foundational to understanding how long you'll have you brand new toe shoes.

Marling helping move Bellaire forward
DAN MARLING has proven a major asset to the All-American Town in his role as Bellaire village administrator.
Marling's efforts have resulted in much progress throughout the town. He has also been a unifying presence in an often-disjointed community.
Looking back at 2013, Marling accomplished much.
He re-established safety programs, filled the code enforcer position as well as the CDL driver for the service department while also updating the village employee handbook.
That is just the tip of the iceberg.
Other accomplishments in 2013 include: improved communication in many areas, as Marling meets regularly with council committees, meets weekly with department supervisors, provides daily mayoral reports, represents the village at county meetings while also making himself accessible and accountable to village residents.
Needless to say, 2013 was one which saw Bellaire taking some steps forward. Much more needs to be done.
The affable administrator has his game plan in place for 2014. Topping his agenda includes:
- Finishing the water intake project;
- Continue to upgrade the water plant, water tanks and pumping stations;
- Aggressively and assertively going after grants to upgrade water distribution lines through out the village as we did in West Bellaire;
- Pave as many streets as the budget will allow;
- and continue to make Bellaire's sanitation department effective and efficient.
"Bellaire will continue to move forward in 2014," Marling said. "We have re-affirmed the foundation to operate the village, under Mayor DiFabrizio's leadership, and as long the funds hold out, you will continue to see improvement."
FORMER ST. John Central hoop all-stater Michelle Bielanski-Filander is turning around the Austin College women's hoop team. Michelle, now in her third year at the helm of the Sherman, Texas-based Division III school, has the Lady Kangaroos at 4-4. She took over a down-trodden program after a highly success career as assistant coach at Washington & Jefferson. The 1997 St. John's graduate earned a D-I hoop scholarship to Robert Morris after scoring 1,436 points for the Lady Irish, while twice being named all-Ohio and leading SJC to three OVAC basketball titles.
MOUNTAINEER CASINO, Racetrack & Resorts, donated 2,245 cans of food to the Salvation Army last weekend during a canned goods drive at the casino.
"We are pleased that Mountaineer Casino, through the generosity of our patrons, is able to help the Salvation Army collect food for those in need of assistance during this holiday season," Chris Kern, general manager said. "We applaud the Salvation Army and our patrons for providing for needy families who may be having a tough time putting dinner on the table."
The canned goods drive was held in the Mountaineer Casino hotel lobby on Saturday, Dec. 21. More than 400 guests donated five cans of food each.
CHRIS DAUGHERTY is a coaching success story. Wheeling Park's head football coach is coming off a stellar grid season. He has elevated the Patriot football program at a high level. It is a time-consuming effort. Consequently, Doc has opted to yield the head-coaching duties with Park's boys' track team. He led the Patriot thinclads to great success, including a state title, state runnerup and 10 OVAC titles. Most of all, Doc did it all with total professionalism and class.
SPORTS ILLUSTRATED named Peyton Manning as its Sportsmen of the Year. I think the Denver Broncos' QB is special but my choice is David Ortiz of the Boston Red Sox. He helped bring the city together after the Boston Marathon bombings and later almost single handily carried the Red Sox past the Cardinals in the World Series.
IT IS never real exciting going to work the morning after Christmas. Fortunately, mine got a nice jump start. I stopped to get gas at 4:30 a.m. and I ended up playing with Ecko, Martins Ferry's police canine. Ecko was on duty with his handler, officer Chad Kuhn.
U.S. HOLIDAY shoppers spent a whopping $110 billion on gift cards this Christmas.
ERIC FROHNAPFEL caught two passes in helping Marshall defeat Maryland in the Military Bowl Friday. The 6-6 tight end is the son of Steve Frohnapfel, a 1979 St. John Central grad who starred for Ty Fleming. Eric's twin brother, Blake, is Marshall's backup QB. Marshall ended the season with 10 wins.
ANOTHER YEAR is poised to exit, and 2013 will be remembered for many reasons. For me, the passing of good friend and three-decade co-worker Rich "Hoot" Gibson is what unfortunately stands out for me. Hoot joined the Times Leader in 1981 and quickly demonstrated a unique and entertaining writing style and a zest for traveling and covering big-time events. Hoot was a great writer and even better friend. The Times Leader lost a treasure this past July.

Automotive writer
We were zipping over the new Bay St. Louis Bridge, the outside temperature a perky 28 degrees, according to the cockpit instrument panel, while my traveling companion and I were toasty warm inside our car and looking for an exit so we could get out and breath in a bit of the crisp January air.
At least until frostbite set in.
The companion, who has driven nothing but Accords for the past 25 years, walked the perimeter of our vehicle, Honda's new Accord Crosstour, taking in its sleek lines and sporty visage.
"In reality it doesn't look much like an Accord," she said smiling. "But when you're inside, it has the look, comfort, ride and feel of an Accord — and I want one."
She is by no means alone.
Twisting Highway Fun
Last September, Honda unveiled the Crosstour on — ready for this? — Facebook instead of at an auto show. Since then the full-size crossover SUV and fastback version of the Accord has been generating a storm of interest among car buyers. And for good reason. Alternately referred to as a four-door hatchback, fastback sedan, crossover utility vehicle (CUV), and even "active grand tourer" (this from Honda's program chief engineer Osamu Takezawa), the Crosstour brings to the table a do-it-all package. And that package combines the roominess, drive and reliability of its acclaimed Accord sibling but with the addition of lean, stylish lines and a standard 3.5-liter, i-VTEC V6 engine tossed in for road-burning, twisting-highway fun.
In fact, the i-VTEC engine is so sophisticated it can deactivate up to half of the engine's 12 cylinders when less power is needed while cruising or decelerating. Interesting.
Still,you can talk until the cows come home about sculpted instrument panels, black-and-tan console accent colors, shock absorbers with internal rebound springs, and durable level-loop carpet. But what made this driver and his long-time Accord-owning friend sit up and take notice was how the automaker seems to have delivered a car tailor made for those who want the best of both Honda worlds: the convenience, versatility and cargo space of an SUV, with a dashing design (ya' gotta love that sloping roof and cool fender lines) and enough V6 umph and G-force cornering features to remind everyone from young couples to empty-nest baby boomers that at the end of the day we're all really kids at heart.
Kids at heart with an eye for beauty — even if it's in the eye of the beholder.
"It's simply gorgeous," another friend noted later that same day. "If the rear of the car were in a pair of jeans, it could do runway modeling."
Others have claimed its grille is less than aesthetic. Apparently beauty is in the eye of the beholder even when it comes to automobiles.
New 'Nichemobile'
As a CUV, the five-passenger Crosstour is nestled size-wise in between Honda's compact CR-V and its eight-seat Pilot (though it's packaged and marketed at the high-end of the five-seat crossover market). As a sedan, it has virtually the identical wheelbase as the Accord sedan and essentially drives like one. This is not a bad thing.
Where Honda's newest "nichemobile" really earns its stripes is its premium interior cockpit refinements. The driver's instrument cluster, for instance, features a pair of analog meters for the speedometer and tachometer, both surrounded by silver trim rings for a premium sporty appearance. Audio, climate and available navigation system controls are smartly grouped.
And then there's the 360-watt AM/FM/6-disc audio system (with seven speakers) that turns the inside of the Crosstour into a rolling Fillmore East (for you boomers old enough to remember the legendary '60s East Coast concert venue).
Elsewhere, pragmatism rears its grown-up head with a new type of reflection-minimizing coating on the navigation screen, which comes in handy when driving with the sun in your eyes, at your back, or through the moonroof.
Smart stuff includes under-floor storage and reversible cargo-area floor panels, a large-opening tailgate, and carpeted lids in the cargo area that reverse to create a plastic, easy-to-clean surface.
If there's any semi-serious drawback, it's the reduced visibility through the rear window due to its sloping curve and the narrow horizontal bar that nearly bisects said window. Blind spots on either side make it imperative — repeat: imperative —– for the driver to look over his shoulder when changing lanes and not merely rely on sideview mirrors. Of course, many New Orleanians are likely to dismiss this peppy and sleek-lined, road-going crossover's main palpable flaw when they discover the removable waterproof cargo well in back that seems tailor-made for storing refreshing adult beverages on ice.
Bravo. Talk about a tailgate party on wheels.
Some might complain that a fully tricked-out crossover priced in the mid-$30K range should come equipped with additional luxury amenities, such as a power liftgate and streaming Bluetooth audio. But others, especially the Accord-loving segment of the car-buying public, are bound to find that the Crosstour succeeds brilliantly in delivering something years in the making.
Namely, a freeway friendly, easy handling Honda crossover that is not only immensely fun to drive, but one that offers enough cargo storage for that long-overdue road trip— with peace of mind — up the ALCAN Highway.

The madness of March 2012 brings you an All-Time Boxing Elite 8 Tournament featuring some of the best pound-for-pound boxers to have ever graced the welterweight division.
From a hypothetical point of view and some background analysis, eight of those fighters will vie to progress from the quarterfinals, to the semifinals and then the finals itself, where one will be crowned the eventual winner of the Elite 8 tourney.

For 20 minutes, saying the Florida Gators couldn't hit water from a boat might be speaking too kindly of their three-point shooting.
Time after time, in the face of an aggressive Virginia Cavaliers defense, Florida athletes launched contested shots from deep - fifteen times, to be exact - and only twice did they manage to find the bottom of the net.
This is not a situation in which the Gators usually find themselves. Known for their ability to bomb away, they rank second nationally in three-pointers attempted (841), first nationally in makes (328) and are tied for 21st in percentage (39.5). They are, in short, an excellent shooting team.
Just not in the first half of their first NCAA tournament game of 2012.
"I think it was us missing shots," Florida guard Kenny Boynton said. "I think we had a lot of open looks off of fast break opportunities, wide open looks, that we just missed as a team. I think we did a magnificent job closing out, it just wasn't our night from beyond the arc."
Still, despite their woes from beyond the arc, the Gators entered halftime with a 30-22 lead, built largely on the back of ramped up defensive intensity and a taste of full-court press that baffled Virginia. And when they ran back out on the court their focus on offense was obvious:
Drive the basketball. Stop shooting threes. Take advantage of the speed and athleticism possessed by guards Bradley Beal, Boynton and Erving Walker.
It worked. The Gators guards stopped firing up guarded shots and started attacking the basket instead, knifing their way through a Cavaliers defense that ranked this season as one of the best in the country statistically, holding opponents to an average of 53.7 points per game. Only Wisconsin topped that total, by allowing opponents just 52.8 points per contest.
Friday, the Gators crushed that average, scoring 71 in a 26-point victory.
Not only did Florida put the ball on the deck in the second half, but they got star sophomore forward Patric Young involved as well. Held to just four points in the first half, he finished with 13 points and was a perfect 6-of-6 from the field. Meanwhile, Beal, Boynton and Walker combined for 31, despite making just one three-pointer between them. Casey Prather went for a career-high 14, most of which came during the explosive second half.
They were balanced, shot 52.8-percent overall, and in general looked tough – really tough.
"(Head Coach Billy Donovan) just basically told us to take what the defense gives us," Boynton said. "We were 1-for-15 at halftime, so he wanted us to take better threes. He thought we took some tough ones in the first half."
The notion that they're a one-dimensional team that relies solely on the three-ball is a misnomer, Young said, though he doesn't mind if they continue to hold that perception.
"I hope teams keep thinking that," he said. "We've shown we can do more than just shoot threes. That's what Coach Donovan has been telling us all year. That we're more than just a three-point shooting team. We have balance and so much scoring (ability)."

The hotel is near to the bus station as well as the old port. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My room was bright and clean and had a flat panel lcd tv.
The hotel was excellent in all respects. Clean, Friendly, Cheap. Good Breakfast. Location is fantastic. Between new town and old venetian quarters; 5 minutes from the bus station and the fabulous market. It is a family run hotel and our hosts were really helpful. They suggested a tour for us to hike through the Samaria Gorge. It was as cheap as doing it ourselves and much more satisfactory. The rooms are not huge but are lovely, bathrooms fine and air conditioning excellent! Another great help is that there is a huge sign on the top of the hotel, visible from the big town market. It helped me find my way twice. Another big advantage is its price - so cheap for the quality.
Nice quiet location. Plenty of room. Lovely pools available. Once you become familiar with your surroundings it is easy to find your way around to the beach and central city. Very genuine and friendly staff who were a pleasure to meet and get to know. Reccomend this place to anybody
Difficult place to find due to lack of road signs, which is not the Hotel's fault.
comfortable rooms, nice location with great view, excellent buffet breakfat with homemade food. also the staff was very helpfull, giving us information about Chania and excursions! we will be back soon!
no complaints
Friendly staff, clean rooms, good location.
Breakfast was very limited & did not cater for allergies - e.g. - no soya milk. It also lacked variation - the same every day.
Free Breakfast
not bad...
...but definitely not a 4 star hotel.
The hospitality of the owners is amazing, as the location and value. Great breakfast is included. Will stay again.
Modern equipment, clean and comfortable. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Perfect location in Chania close to the ocean, city sentre, tourist centre and night life area. Public free Parking available.
Service, staff and beauty
Good location, friendly staff, nice hotel
If there's a charming hotel in Hania, it is the Doma. The history of the building, the cozy and lovely rooms, the traditional breakfast in a diningroom overviewing the sea, the garden and the super friendly staff al deserve an A+++. We highly recommend it and look forward to go back!
The wonderful sea view from the room and breakfast room.
There is some noise from the road in front of the hotel.
it was great place and yes i would go back
nice design and helpful staff
the staffs were really helpful, has good location and good swimming pool
the hotel is rather old, needs renovation
I stayed for 4 days at Kriti hotel. The location of the hotel is perfect, between the old port and the new port. the staff is polite
One of the reasons I chose the hotel was because it had wi-fi internet connection. It seemed that the wi-fi doesn' t apply for all the rooms of the hotel , so if you are unlucky and you get the wrong room, you won t be able to get connected to the internet, which is very inconvenient! Plus, it s not free. you get charged 3 euros for 1 hour, 5 for 2 hours.
The room was just wonderful. Decorated in creation style with a balcony over looking the harbor of old town chania. We were served breakfast on our balcony in the morning which was wonderful viewing the tourist. The Belmondo is located on the harbor within walking distance to shopping.
Very close to the old port atractions of Hania, Good price.
Slightly noisy but not that bad.
I loved the hotel - it was right across the road from a lovely beach, great view of the coast, islands and mountains. 20mins walk along the coast path to the Old Harbour and a bus stop 50yds away to gat into town. Loads of good quality tavernas along the front and a couple of mini- markets - one next door and one about 100yds away. a bar right next door to the hotel - great!!!! The Manager/Owner (not sure which) was very helpful and always pleasant and friendly and the other staff were great - nothing too much trouble and clean linen every other day. I would definately stay here again and recommend it to my friends.
Only 1 thing which was not the fault of the hotel - but a couple of buildings away there was a German Shepherd dog that was roaming on the roof and was never taken for walks or allowed in the house this meant that it was barking night and day at anything that moved!!!!! Also on Friday evenings they have live music in the bar and it does no...
The location is excellent. In front of a beach. If you get a room with a view, you can see fabulous sunsets
Staff was very helpful, friendly and courteous.
Parking is difficult.
Nice hotel. Good location. Just one - If you like to sleep with open window at night - forget it (very noisy street). Ask for backyard room.
The receptionist was very helpful and she recommended a lovely local style restaurant nearby with excellent food.
The rooms and the bathrooms were very small, the beds were hard, the pillows were awful and it was noisy. Value for money was poor. Breakfast was below average.
The staff were all helpful and friendly. The location is very good indeed.
The room we had was very basic and small. Since our last visit, five years ago, provision for breakfast has declined somewhat.
Best value on our European holiday. Very nice size rooms appointed with good quality furnishings. Good location and good breakfast. A real gem tucked away from busy streets in old town Hania.
Reception only open until 12:00. Need to advise arrival time to have someone meet you. Located on a pedestrian street, taxi's not able to take you and your luggage to front door, approx 100m walk.
The staff were lovely and very helpful. The room was modern and clean. The location is perfect for the harbour and restaurants, and a short walk to the local beach.
The room was adequate, with wireless internet, which was a major plus. The staff were always friendly and eager to answer questions about the local area. The breakfast selection was more than enough to satisfy any tastes.
No air conditioning. A couple of nights, it was warm enough that I woke up in the middle of the night sweating. There's nothing to do unless you wish to sit at the bar in the evening. No pool or pool table to occupy time in the evening.
Beautiful Hotel in a not so great area.
It may not be on the waterfront, but it's very walkable from there. Modern, great rooms, clean, great staff, good bar and café. Just an all around great place to stay!
Placed right in the centre of Chania close to the port and all of the excellet eating places and shops and close to the market
I will always stay here on my trips to Loutro or other points in Crete as it is also convenient for Chania Airpport
Location. It is located in a nice area of town.Room was very clean.Young man in front desk was very kind.
Breakfast was meager. Lady was stressed by the fact that I requested fruits with it.Hotel advertises free parking, when in reality there is no way to get a car to that part of town; I had to leave my rental car in a paid parking 4 blocks from the hotel
In the old town, sense of history. Old world but very comfortable furnishing Great staff
No problems. Stairs we good exercise
The hotel was lovely. Very original and quaint. Lovely decor and nice bathroom.
owner was very friendly. room very clean with amazing view. best location in town. will be back
The staff were very nice, the rooms were comfortable with a wonderful view of the port, the free internet and homemade traditional breakfast were very nice to have.
The location was very nice but our only issue during our stay was finding our way there. The nearest parking lot is a 10 minute walk away as the areas around the hotel are pedestrian streets. Even when we called we were not given this information and were driving in circles for almost 3 hours. It is a simple matter to overcome though - just make sure that you go straight up to the old port parking. Other than this we had a wonderful stay :)
seriously, you'll save alot money by staying this hotel, the location is fantastic, very close to city center of Chania, there're plenty of restaurants close by( I would say next door), the food was really good but a little expensive to me, range from ( 9 - 20 euro, plus drinks probably around $25 euros per person). it's very relaxed, and also for the young people, there're bars and small clubs close by as well, the hotel staff was very friendly, she speaks english very well.
the bathroom was really small, and the showers don't have a curtain, but thank god there's a lock on the bathroom door.
The owner. My favorite part of the trip was when we had rented a car for the day and didn't see him was the morning after. He said, "What did you do yesterday? I lost you."
The location. The staff is polite and helpful.
Cleaniing must be better. Some small furniture must be added (for example: the room needs to have a full length mirror). Net must be added to the window so that there is a choice of opening it without fear of bugs etc. The bathroom is very old- fixtures are disheveled and they must be redone.
The Wifi was intermittent at best.
No pool
The A/C was cool at best...not cold at all
The parking garage can't accommodate any larger than a "small" compact car (i.e. Smart car, Mini Cooper)
We liked the location (near downtown) and the quiet environment.
We did not like a) the lack of a real air conditioning system ( we could not sleep for two nights and, eventually, moved to another hotel) b) the dated furniture c) the lack of adequate light in the room (they seem to save money even on the light bulbs...)
Family owned hotel, very nice staff. Excellent breakfast!!!
breakfast was great, nikos was very helpful and saw to all our needs as we travelled with a baby .
stairs !
Very close to both Iguana and Sunset beach - 2 mins walk, both clean and shallow sandy beaches. Staff very relaxed and helpful, clean and spacious apartment, nice quiet pool and bar. Lovely quiet village and close to Chania - 5€ in a taxi. Would definitely stay again!
The location is very good close to 3 beautiful beaches by foot, only 4km from Chania town. Beds were comfortable, moskito nets a plus, the pool was nice. Rooms were clean, fresh towels and sheets were provided. Renovated 2 years ago. Nice balconies.
Behavior towards customers is not professional. There were two times when they tried to charge us for things that should not be charged. The internet did not work for the first week and then it worked only in the pool and not in the rooms. Kitchen was missing things like a drainer for spaggeti. Rooms were rather small and the apartment crowded for 4 people.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

Japanese mobile system/application developer KLab Inc. [J] announced that they had developed a clone of Kindle Developer's Kit (KDK) and Kindle Emulator.
The official KDK has been available for limited beta developers since February. Klab release said that they could not wait approval so that they built the emulator from Amazon's specification documents.
Currently, not all Java interfaces are supported, but two main classes which are needed to realize key input and screen rendering are implemented.
As testbeds, two popular games – Tetris and Load Runner – are made on it. Tetris's source code is also provided.
Here is a movie how NES emulator is running on the KDK clone.
With the KDK clone, you may develop Kindle application before you can access official KDK. Although KLab does not mention it, Kindle applications may be able to run on this emulator (in your Java SE 6 on PC).

Free Carpet Buying Information for Homeowners!
By Alan Fletcher - 30-year Carpet Expert & Trusted Consumer Advocate
Welcome to CarpetProfessor.com! I retired after 30-years in the carpet business and no longer Sell or Install carpet or flooring. My goal is to help homeowners make wise and informed carpet buying choices. Everything you need to know about buying new carpet is posted on my website and is provided absolutely free with no strings attached whatsoever.
I encourage you to take full advantage of all my free carpet information and unbiased advice to help you choose wisely and help you save hundreds, if not thousands on your next new carpet purchase!
Take your time and read through all my free articles, take my powerful Carpet Foot Traffic Test, print out my free checklists and take my challenging carpet quiz. Take time to fully analyze all my pricing charts and print out my free discount coupon for up to $100 off new carpet and my useful carpet shopping forms. Take a look at my free Carpet Buying Checklist.
Don't be a victim! I've been helping homeowners avoid common carpet scams and save money on new carpet and flooring for over 18 years! Be very careful who's opinion and advice you trust! Most carpet websites do not provide complete, accurate or honest carpet buying information and advice! Buy the wrong grade of carpet and you stand to lose hundreds or even thousands!
Take my Free Carpet Foot-Traffic Test
Why I Created This Website...
After one or two visits to a carpet retailer, most homeowners will quickly discover that selecting new carpet is very difficult, time consuming and confusing. My website, CarpetProfessor.com was created to help educate homeowners sort through all the carpet buying nonsense. I think all homeowners deserve to have simple and honest carpet buying choices but for the past 30 years that's not been the case.
Most of the "free" carpet information I find posted on the internet is either limited, wrong or misleading. It's hard to find honest and candid advice that will truly help you choose wisely and avoid common carpet scams. Don't make the mistake of believing all those online reviews about businesses.
If you don't take the time to do your carpet homework, you stand to lose hundreds if not thousands on your carpet or flooring purchase. There are literally dozens of ways for you to make simple but costly mistakes and end up unhappy with the end result. Making wise carpet choices requires that you do your carpet homework before you begin shopping for carpet.
If you have specific carpet buying questions you can email me at email@example.com. I can't tell you what carpet to buy, but I can give you unbiased advice to help you make wise and informed choices. Take a look at my sitemap to see if I have already answered your question in one of my free articles.
Watch Out For Greedy Carpet Retailers! Many carpet retailers hire pushy salespeople who will say or do just about anything to close the sale! Some of these sales professional know very little about carpet. They are hired because they are good at closing the sale. That means they don't take NO for an answer.
They will keep grinding on you to wear you down until you finally say YES, agree to buy and write them a check. In reality, you likely agreed to buy only because you thought it was the only way to get them to LEAVE your home! If this has recently happened to you, you should know that you usually have a three-day right of rescission to cancel your order. You have to act fast and follow some rules set forth by the FTC.
Buying Locally is Important for So Many Reasons!
You need to make sure you only buy from a reputable, locally owned carpet dealer with honest and knowledgeable salespeople who will take their time to help you choose new carpet and flooring wisely, to measure your home accurately and to give you a fair and square deal.
You should NEVER feel pressured into buying any flooring products until you are fully satisfied with your selection and are sure that you are buying from a reputable dealer.
For this reason and many more is why I decided to create my website and to expose the truth about the carpet business and to educate and inform homeowners how to choose new carpet wisely and to show homeowners how to avoid common carpet scams! And it's all totally free for homeowners! Read more about the Best & Worst Places to Buy New Carpet.
Choosing the Right Carpet Fiber
Nylon is the most durable synthetic fiber available today. Beware of Carpet Retailers or Salespeople who recommend you buy carpet made from Polyester or P.E.T. Polyester and say it is "just as durable" as a carpet made from Nylon. Carpets made from Polyester tend to mat down very quickly in medium to heavy traffic applications, especially in main walkways, hallways and on stairs.
Carpet made from Polyester may be a good choice for you if cost is a major issue, or if you have a low foot-traffic application, or you have frequent pet accidents and/or you plan to move soon or plan to replace your carpet within 3 to 7 years. Learn More about Carpet Fibers
More key information:
Most homeowners...
1. Choose the Wrong Grade of Carpet... Because they don't do their carpet homework!
2. Pay Too Much for Materials & Labor... Because they don't get several free bids or estimates!
3. Have Their Carpet Installed improperly... Because they don't buy from a reputable dealer!
4. Unknowingly void their carpet warranty... Because they don't maintain their carpet properly!
The Carpet Professor Says..
It's your responsibility to choose new carpet wisely. You should never rely solely on any one salesperson to make your carpet and padding choices for you. If your new carpet does not perform as expected, you cannot go back and blame the salesperson for giving you bad or wrong advice. Only buy from a reputable carpet dealer! See who I recommend near you
Be Careful Who You Trust!
Many carpet salespeople lack sufficient "hands-on" carpet experience and don't have enough product knowledge to know what grade of carpet is able to meet YOUR needs, goals and lifestyle.
Unfortunately there are also plenty of unscrupulous carpet salespeople who are hoping to overcharge you by using sneaky sales tactics, deceptive advertising gimmicks, bait & switch tricks and literally dozens of other common retail carpet scams! Read more about Costly Carpet Buying Mistakes
Measuring for Carpet
Most homeowners are overcharged for materials and labor! If you get three carpet estimates from three different carpet dealers, I guarantee you will get three different estimates for the amount of material your home requires.
Why? Because measuring for carpet can be difficult and every carpet salesperson has there own unique methods for measuring. The bad part is that it is very hard to determine which estimate or measurement is the most accurate, if any! Learn How to Measure for Carpet Yourself!
Carpet Measuring Scams
Unscrupulous carpet salespeople may also intentionally over-measure your home just to increase their profits. A sly salesperson can easily cheat you out of your hard earned money using any number of different carpet measuring scams. Best places to shop for new carpet? See who I recommend near you
Salespeople who lack measuring experience can cost you plenty.
It can take years to learn how to properly measure for carpet. Salespeople who are new to the carpet business may not be very good at measuring. Their biggest fear is not ordering enough material to finish the job, so to prevent this, they might add an extra 10, 20, 30 or more yards of carpet "just to make sure" they have enough material to complete the job. This can easily cost you hundreds!
For example, Let's say you are spending $30 per yard for carpet, pad and installation... Ordering just 10 extra yards more than you require will cost you $300 plus tax. Ouch! There are smart ways to make sure you are not a victim of a measuring scam... See who I recommend near you
The Carpet Professor Says...
To be successful at buying new carpet for your home, you just need to select the right grade of carpet for your needs, choose the correct padding, have your home accurately measured and have it all installed by a qualified carpet installer... All for a fair and reasonable price!
Carpet Prices - Revise Your Carpet Budget
Carpet is more expensive then most homeowners realize. When you finally add up all the costs for materials and labor it can easily give you a severe case of sticker shock. Don't settle for an inferior quality carpet. It's not a good idea to select new carpet based on how much money you have to spend on the project right now, as it almost always ends in frustration.
If you find that you can't afford the carpet of your dreams, either wait till you have more money, or do your carpet project in two or more stages, but never sacrifice quality and settle for a lower grade of carpet! Learn more about Carpet Prices
Choosing the Right Grade of Carpet is not as easy as most folks think. It's not like it was 30 or 40 years ago when choices were very limited and most carpets were manufactured quite well. Today there are thousands of different grades, styles and quality levels to choose from. This makes it very difficult for most homeowners to make wise choices. Choose the wrong grade of carpet and padding and your carpet may wear out way faster than you expect.
Some Carpets are only designed to last for just a couple years before they start to wear out... but some carpets are made so well, they can easily last 20 years or more! What is the difference you ask? Why do some Carpets last longer than others? It all depends on the materials they use to manufacture the carpet! Most important is choosing the best carpet fiber for your needs!
The problem with selecting the right carpet is... You can't tell the difference just by looking at the Carpet samples or just by feeling the carpet pile with your hand. All carpets look fabulous when they are new! Everyone wants to buy a carpet that is soft and luxurious, but just because a carpet feels soft does not mean it's durable or able to tolerate YOUR level of foot traffic.
Don't buy a carpet just because you love the color or it feels nice and soft! If you want a carpet that will last a long time, you need to select a carpet made from the most durable materials!
The Carpet Professor Says...
Here are 5 "Key Carpet Specifications" you need to know and understand.
Learn More: Carpet Manufacturing Specifications Explained
Carpet Padding Specifications
It's also very important to choose the correct carpet padding for your home. It is real easy to select the wrong type or quality of padding or be swayed by a carpet salesperson to spend much more than is necessary for a "specialty" padding. Read more about Choosing the Right Carpet Pad Types of Carpet Padding
Ready to Begin Your Carpet Buying Journey?
OK, You first need to take my Free Carpet Foot Traffic Test to help determine what grade of carpet you need to buy for your home. You need to know the answer the following questions:
1. What is the level of foot traffic in your home?

6. Calculate your Carpet Installation Costs
Most residential carpet is installed for a fixed amount based on the amount of material required to do the job. A common price per square yard might be $4.50 to $6.50. Looped Berber carpets are more difficult to install and there is usually an up charge of a dollar or two per square yard. You will incur additional installation fees or charges for services beyond the normal scope of carpet installation these include: Stairs, Transitions and Thresholds, Floor Preparation, Furniture Moving, Custom upholstery, Removal and haul away of old carpet & pad and installation... to name just a few of the more common extra fees and charges you might encounter.

I was a little Iffy on this release at first since I heard all the talk about sensitivity adjustments but when I got it I was blown away! It has no travel at all and it was a little light for me at first so I put the yellow spring in there and it feels awesome!

I've been asked by a few people to provide a recap of ATP Oil and Gas Corp.'s (ATPG) Friday conference call to discuss Q4 earnings. There really wasn't much new in the call (which is good as that means everything is on track) but the information that I found interesting is below.Click to enlarge
Titan Monetization – ATP left the time frame for this fairly open. The official guidance is that they expect it to be done sooner rather than later. There seems to be no doubt that the deal will get done and it seems that they have the resources to allow them to do it on their terms. My understanding is that they are in talks with several different parties. With the proceeds look for the remainder of the "asset monetization" debt tranche to be repaid. According to ATP, the structure would be to put the Titan into a subsidiary and then flow the proceeds of the monetization up into the parent company. Once the asset monetization tranche is repaid, ATP will likely be able to look at restructuring the remaining debt at better rates.
Octabuoy Monetization – This is the $600 million floating production unit that is being built for the Cheviot property that is scheduled for production in 2012. The hull is currently being built in China by Cosco (OTCPK:CICOF) who have agreed to defer payment until mid 2011, which has allowed ATP to free up $99 million of cash this year. Per the conference call it sounds like a similar deal is in the works for the topsides and that the Octabuoy may be funded through an SPV during the construction phase. This is really quite significant obviously as this will greatly reduce ATP's 2011 capex spending on Cheviot and will make certain the project stays on schedule.
Production Increases in Q1 2010 – Q4 production was referred to as being lousy but much has already improved since then.
- Q4 2009 Production – 13,600 BOE per day
- Late January – Added 4,600 BOE per day at Gomez #4 well
- March 11 – Added 2,500 BOE per day at Canyon Express
- Remainder of March will add – Another 2,500 per day at Canyon Express
- Remainder of March will add – First Telemark well at 5,000 to 8,000 BOE per day
- Production increases over remainder of 2010 – being very very careful on forecasting. (The comment was that the intend to make absolutely sure we don't over-promise.)
So where ATP entered 2010 at 13,600 BOE per day they leave Q1 2010 at over 30,000 BOE per day.
Telemark - There should be one additional Telemark well per quarter for the rest of 2010. They made that comment that there was a reasonable chance that they could reach the ATP Titan's 25,000 barrel of oil capacity on the first three wells instead of needing all four. If that turns out to be the case I'd look for them to minimize production at AT63 so that they can focus on production at Morgus/Mirage.
Gomez MC710 – The most exciting new news for shareholders was likely the first public comments made abou the new lease block at MC710 which is right beside Gomez. ATP has recently received a new set of 3D seismic on MC710 and they made the comment that it appears to be a mirror image of Gomez (MC711). This would be fantastic news obviously as Gomez so far has provided ATP with roughly 50 million of proved and probable reserves. As all of the infrastructure is already in place and controlled by ATP at Gomez this will be very high margin production should it occur. The plan is to drill MC710 in 2011 and it would contribute to production in the last half of 2011. They sounded quite excited about the property.
Gomez Production Additions – It sounds like there should also be production additions at Gomez from the #9 well which will come on in early 2011 and MC754 which has been drilled already (ATP just picked up an increased interest in MC754 and now controls the property) and should come on production later in 2010.
A Partner on Cheviot? – Comment was made that they had spoken to a potential partner on the Cheviot property. If they did sell an interest in Cheviot and with the capex on the Octabouy not coming out of cash flow ATP could actually find itself with some cash flow in 2011 that would have to find a home other than Cheviot development.
Improved Credit Metrics – Question was asked as to whether Telemark production would allow for flexibility in debt financing ? The response was that they intend to sell Titan and pay off B2 tranche. After that gone, total debt under $1bil offers a lot more flexibility in the term loan market and other markets in being able to put in SPV debt. Likely see in 2010 or 2011 a different debt structure for the company likely at lower cost.
Year end 2010 Production and EBITAX – Still looks like this is going to be a very different company at the end of 2010. In fact it has already changed with the Gomez/Canyon Express production increases. Simple recap of where production should exit the year
- 2009 Year end production – 13,600 BOE per day
- 2010 Q1 Exit Rate of production – 30,000 BOE per day (added 1 well Gomez, 3 at Canyon Express, first Telemark well)
- 2010 Q4 Exit Rate of Production – 53,000 BOE per day (this is the 23,000 non-Telemark production plus the 30,000 coming from Telemark which is 25,000 oil plus 5,000 gas)
This will mean annual run rate of revenue over $1bil per year vs the $250mil or so in Q4 2009 and EBITAX somewhere between $800mil and $900mil assuming oil prices slightly lower than current.
Question About Timing of CEO Share Sale – The CEO had to handle a difficult question about the timing of his share sale in early January at which point in time he knew the company was badly missing Q4 production guidance. His response was that he felt that the important news concerning the future of the the company was that Telemark was still on schedule and not a deferral of Q4 production. I happen to agree with the CEO's point that the status of Telemark is many times more important than a production deferral. That said I also think it was just ridiculous to not be able to see that it was a bad idea to sell shares after such a quarterly production miss. I believe there was no evil intent here and that the CEO is fully aligned with shareholders and committed to ATP, but I think is was very poor judgement to sell when he did.
Final Comments – I'm thrilled with where the company currently stands. Here is why:
- Production will have more than doubled the Q409 production rate by the end of March.
- Telemark is just days away from production.
- Titan monetization will happen and ATP isn't rushed into it.
- Could hit Titan capacity on only 3 wells instead or 4 which means at capacity sooner and will stay there for longer.
- Financing of the Octabouy with Cosco (OTCPK:CSCMY) is huge news for freeing up cash flow in 2010 and 2011.
- Very excited about MC710 at Gomez, big upside I wasn't aware of a week ago.
- Good chance at less expensive debt being in place by year end.
- Oil for Telemark being is hedged in the $80s.
- The are 11 million shares short on a very small float as of last count. These guys have bet that ATP wouldn't get Telemark completed. They bet wrong. As production continues ramping up there are 11 million shares that are going to have to be purchased.
- Not only is production set to double YOY in 2010, but it looks likely that it could double YOY again in 2011.

Back And Inspired After First Media Event for Missouri.me
Well, yesterday I made it back from following the Tour of Missouri for the week, as mentioned in previous posts it was a large marketing event and press event for us. The results far exceeded our expectations and I could probably come up with blog topics for a month from the one week of travel and the experience we gained from it. Do not worry though, I will keep it to just a few.
One thing that was very nice to see was that in two different stops I had domain investors come visit our booth, we were working hard to cover the event but I made it a point to get some domain discussion time in, its not often we get out in public and meet in such an ad hoc manner as domainers so it was absolutely great to meet some the people that read my blog and talk with them about their perspective on domains and how they build their business from them. What I found most interesting about this was that new domain investors are still coming in. Even though the economy has shrunk many peoples budgets people are still looking at ways to get in. One thing that was great to hear from both individuals I ran into was the focus on quality rather than quantity. I think the recent comments by fellow domain bloggers and myself are starting to resonate with new people coming in. This is great news for all (although not necessarily for registrars…).
Next thing of note, I gained both major respect for some media organizations but also lost it for others. Excluding some of the top TV media organizations we had the same access as anyone else in the "media pits" as I liked to call them, also had access to the free food and gifts each city gave each day to the press (note to self, that does not mean its calorie free). But it was funny seeing legacy media teams feel entitled and not hustle for their position, it was the web centric folks that were smart about their access and made sure they got in position first. Seeing old-school newspaper photographers have to fight for position when it was obvious they normally had the upper hand was actually quite entertaining and became a nice discussion point between ourselves and some others.
We actually had the first videos and pictures up on some days at Tour.Missouri.Me, in a couple cases we had pictures and videos up within 10 minutes of the video being taken. We made it a point to be raw and uncut, that had been our plan initially (to put out pictures and videos as fast as possible) but after discussing with a few other cyclists and one of the media representatives from one of the teams it became even more apparent that would be the smartest move. Well, it worked, one of the team press officers actually pulled the team owner over and said "Did you see what these guys are doing, its like an AP news feed except faster and its pictures and video." We are new at this obviously, but to get compliments and kudos from these people who deal with the press everyday it was pretty cool stuff. It was also nice to be in one of the team cars (Thanks Team Type 1) and be sending out tweets with pictures from the car real time.
Another nice thing was seeing the amount of links and comments we got from other websites, at the beginning of the week we had actually put together a Google Adwords budget to drive initial traffic, by mid week it was only 20 percent of our traffic/pageviews just based on links from other cycling sites and traffic from type-ins and search engines (another note, galleries of podium girls on sites do well in cycling events).
And for the biggie for us, Lt. Governor Peter Kinder of Missouri took a liking to us early and our story. During the Ste. Genevieve stage 2 start we had the opportunity to meet him and talk a bit, we discussed the fact we are cyclists and thanked him for supporting the continuation of the event (a whole other story). We informed him of the link we were adding to our site to directly contact the governor to petition for the event to be held next year. Well, the rest from there on was great, he pulled me aside on stage during a stage a couple days later and asked how traffic was, and indicated he had been telling everyone about Missouri.me and asked me to connect with his staff to discuss further what we were doing. Obviously something we are very excited about.
Back to media organizations, I read VeloNews.com daily, it was actually quite fun to sit in a Paneras in Rolla, MO and chat with them while they posted their pics and stories on their site (which is the de facto cycling news site on the web) while we were sitting right there with them posting on ours. The Internet has changed media, although we all realized it before, once you realize that the newspapers are still working on getting printed for the next day, and the TV organizations are trying to figure out what 30 seconds to show, we were posting 10 stories a day and getting traffic because of it. Velonews is the best of both, they have the top cycling news site but also have their print magazine. It was nice to see them working hard to get their stories up fast (although we did beat them a couple days on pics).
As a fan I gotta say that it was nice to get to actually spend some hang-out time with some of the guys I watch in the Tour De France yearly, that alone helped us get exclusive access on team buses during the event and get some video and pictures others did not. Not something we really expected but it turned out great.
After all the effort was put in to put out behind the scenes pictures and videos it was nice to see the reaction across the web, we could see links popping up on various high traffic cycling sites, some nice comments on a few actually stating that Missouri.me was the place to go for fast coverage which was interesting since we had never really covered an event before, looks like guerilla reporting may actually work….. What is even better is the more than 80 posts (and dozens of videos on YouTube.com) we made stay as content and the links created from other sites stick around as well, content is king.
As far as the marketing side of the event, we handed out THOUSANDS of brochures to people coming to our booth, had great reaction from people across Missouri and a ton of people asking about when we will be launching in their states. The water bottles we passed out went quick, probably could of had a thousand more or so but we exceeded expectations so no need to dwell on that.
Well enough rambling, just a lot of stuff in the head rolling around after the past week, and as luck would have it we just signed a new intern on today that graduated with a journalism degree from a top University, more reports to come…..
UPDATE: Funny little thing I just noticed, I was watching the Versus coverage of the first day of the race which I had recorded on DISH, the first couple minutes of the coverage has me in it next to the Team Type 1 team car with my Missouri.me shirt on, free logo branding:) Got lucky:)

To paraphrase the old adage, there are only three absolutes in life: death, taxes, and the rise of tax scams in the early part of the year.
This year's major scam involves phone calls by fictional IRS agents that demand immediate payment for alleged tax debts, threatening lawsuits or even jail time to those who refuse to comply. The more sophisticated version of this includes spoofing a legitimate IRS phone number to fool caller-ID systems. The caller may also have Social Security numbers and enough personal information to convince the taxpayer that the call is legitimate.
As of early March 366,000 complaints have been logged by the Inspector General's office, and approximately 3,000 people have been swindled out of $15.5 million so far though this particular scam.
Other scammers use a carrot instead of a stick. Recently a scam has emerged claiming that you have been awarded a government grant for having been a good taxpayer who regularly pays their taxes on time and in full. The scammer asks for your account information so that the funds can be direct-deposited. The use of the word "grant" apparently fools more people into believing the scam. Do not be one of those people.
According to the Government Accountability Office (GAO), the IRS managed to block approximately $24 billion in fraudulent tax claims, but estimates that other attempts succeeded to the tune of $5.8 billion. You can decrease your chances of being a success story for a scammer by taking a few proactive steps.
- File Your Tax Return Early – If anyone has enough of your information to file a fraudulent tax return in your name, they will do it as soon as possible to claim your refund before you even realize you have been scammed. Beat them to the punch by filing your tax return as soon as you have the necessary documentation.
There is very little downside to filing your taxes early. If you are due a refund, it is obviously in your best interests to receive it earlier, and if you owe you can still file early and arrange for payment to be made closer to April 15th.
- Protect Personal Information – Take all reasonable precautions to guard your personal information through the use of strong passwords that are changed frequently, and keep your anti-virus software updated. Limit Wi-Fi applications that involve banking and other sensitive activities, and when you do use them make sure the Wi-Fi is secure. Secure your own router with a password if you have not done so already.
- Ignore E-mail/Phone Calls – The IRS will contact you by regular mail regarding the vast majority of tax issues, and they will never ask you for personal information such as account numbers, PINs, Social Security numbers, or other identifiers over the phone or via e-mail. If you have some reason to think the IRS may need to contact you, make the initial contact yourself.
- Check for Inaccurate Information – It is wise to check your credit report, credit card receipts, and other sensitive documents for any inaccurate information, false credit charges, or fraudulent attempts to open up an account. Even unsuccessful attempts to establish a fake account in your name suggests that at least some of your personal information is out there for the taking.
Take pre-emptive action during tax season and you are less likely to fall victim to one of these scams, and if you are not sure, contact the IRS yourself. The peace of mind will be worth any potential time on hold.
