We're obsessing over the floral headpieces from this editorial in the Spring/Summer issue of Tar Magazine. They would be such a fun summer accessory, and you could easily recreate them with a bunch of flower pins and some ribbon. New DIY project, anyone?

DIY: Wedding Bouquet Jewelry6
By Blerona
Bouquets! What can we say about a wedding bouquet other than they are the second or third most important part of your wedding day accessories. There are always so many new trends every season that go away as quickly as they come and some that always stay with us. Like wedding bouquet jewelry, where pearls or Swarovski elements are placed in between or in the middle of a flower itself. And the look is well, Glamorous and Beautiful without looking tacky. While looking online for bouquet jewelry I realized they can get a bit pricey, so I decided to make my own DIY versions.

Fun Sequin Flower Headband2
By Kristin
M&J is constantly getting in new items and I have fallen in love with this new sequin trim. It's a gorgeous scalloped edge trim on a netting. There are so many uses for this trim and a headband is an easy one. One of the girls who work on the floor took the gold version of this trim and made a simple flower from it for her hair. I was instantly inspired to make my own version.
I'm a huge fan of headbands, hairclips, and hair ties to hold back and adorn my long hair. Working at M&J has allowed me to expand my collection and have a different look everyday. I'll show you how to make a sequined flower that can then be glued to a headband or hair clip, or even sew a pin on the back for other uses. It only takes a few minutes to make, so it's also a great last minute gift idea.
#44434 – ½ Yard Gunmetal Scalloped Sequin Trim
#42955 – 23mm Silver Sequin Look Button
#43659 – Black Plastic Headband
Black Thread
e6000 Glue
*Call 1-800-9MJTRIM, ext:377 to order any of the products not listed online.
1.) Thread your needle and knot the end. Weave the needle through the sheer side of the trim about 1" away from the edge. Weave it in and out every ½" or so to create a gathering stitch. When you get to the end, pull the trim down this thread to gather it up. Gather it to about 3-4" long and knot the end securely to keep it gathered.
2.) Sew one gathered end to the other. You should now have a circle that is ruffled, this will be your flower. You can now either sew on or glue the button to the middle to cover the hole. If you glued it, once it is dry you can move to the next step.
3.) Now you can choose to glue this to a headband, a hair clip, or a pin back and you are set!

Conjunto Jardin: Yerba Buena
Yerba Buena
Son jarocho is the captivating sound of Veracruz, a Mexican state that sits prominently on the Gulf of Mexico. The city of Veracruz has been an important port for nearly five centuries, serving as a point of entry for cultural influences from Africa, the Caribbean, and the Old World. The music of the region embodies those influences, tracing its roots to at least three cultures: Spanish, African (particularly West African, that of Bantu slaves brought to Veracruz), and indigenous Indian. Echoes of Spain can be heard in the harmonic structure of the music, the verse forms, the staccato heel dance style (zapateado), and the stringed instruments; African roots have left their imprint via short choral responses to a lead singer (pregonero), the slurring or bending of notes, and a sarcastic, irreverent attitude to authority; while the Indian influence is evidenced by the frequent use of animals given human characteristics (iguana, parrot, bull, hawk, and dove), staccato eighth-note rhythmic repetitions, and certain aspects of singing style.
Yerba Buena is the third CD of son jarocho by Conjunto Jardin, a decade-old group that has been honored as recipient of an L.A. Treasures Award from the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs. The name of the group is a play on the Spanish pronunciation of the last name of lead singers Libby and Cindy Harding; the sisters have played and sung jarocho music since childhood, when they learned from and performed with their father, the renowned Latin-American scholar and musician Timothy Harding, whose first wife Pan also performed Mexican folklorico dance and sang with mariachi bands.
The Hardings have now sung together for more than 25 years, and their intonation and vocal blend are nothing short of magical. In addition, their instrumental skills and versatility, and those of the group as a whole, provide a palette of tonal colors that allow them to expand well beyond the traditional bounds of jarocho music. Keyboardist Gary Johnson brings a veritable cornucopia of instruments to the table. Gino Gamboa and Cindy's husband Ciro Hurtado are Peruvian, and addition of the Andean flute (quena) and bamboo panpipes (zamponas) to the mix supplies a subtle breathiness over traditional jaranas (small, strummed rhythm guitars) and requinto (four-stringed lead guitar, plucked with a long bone pua (pick). Cindy Harding, by the way, remains the only known woman requinto player.
In son jarocho, one hears several of the defining features of jazz. The rhythm is syncopated and polyrhythmic, and the vocal style is call-and-response. In Conjunto Jardin, the traditional role of the diatonic Mexican folk harp has been assumed by Gary Johnson's syncopated keyboards. The electric bass of Rick Moors, an aficionado of Caribbean music, and Marcel Adjibi's cajón further underscore the Latin and West African contributions to this music. For example, listen especially for these influences in "La Culebra."
Yerba Buena provides a tasteful blend of traditional and original selections. "El Ahualulco" explores the accordion-based vallenato music of Colombia; "La Yerba Buena con fuga de Guatimé - Mint" conveys a mysterious love song; and "Fandanguito de los Muertos" proves to be a haunting son that segues into an Afro-Cuban montuno version of Libby's original "Para Mis Muertos." "Fandango Jarocho" portrays the wonderful party atmosphere of the fandango jarocho, with luscious fruits, seafood and spirits, and lively music, dance and camaraderie till dawn. The musicianship, variety, and love of music that permeate this CD provide a most satisfying Latin musical experience, as Conjunto Jardin's first two CDs, Nuevo Son Jarocho (Trova, 1998) and Floreando (Trova, 2003) did previously.
Tracks: El Balajú; La Culebra - The Viper; El Ahualulco; La Yerba Buena con fuga de Guatimé - Mint; Fandanguito de los Muertos - Dance of the Dead; El Aguanieve/El Zapateado; Fandango Jarocho - Jarocho Party; La Tuza - The Mole; El Pájaro Cú - The Love Bird; La Vieja - The Old Woman; Conquistador.
Personnel: Conjunto Jardin: Libby Harding: jarana primera and segunda, cuatro, vocals; Cindy Harding: requinto, flute, quena, zampoñas, chaskas, vocals; Gary Johnson: keyboard harp, accordion, piano, electric piano, organ, quijada, pandero, caxixi, cowbell, clave, vocals; Jorge Mijangos: jarana segunda, jarana chaquiste, leona, trés, guacharaca, acoustic guitar, vocals; Rick Moors: bass; Gino Gamboa: cajón; Marcel Adjibi: cajón, congas, vocals.

David Franco Doesn't Try To Do Gay Stuff, He Just Can't Help It
There are a lot of very overtly gay things in these videos, but for some reason while I was making them, or while I was even initially thinking of the ideas, I swear to God I didn't think, 'Okay, we're gonna make another gay video that's gonna shock people.'
The way 'You're So Hot' came about: I worked with Chris [Mintz] on a movie called Fright Night and in between takes we would play this game. It was a game that he and his buddies played growing up and it just made me laugh my ass off, so when the movie was done and we were back in L.A. I thought to myself, 'This would make a really funny short.'
Warm Bodies actor David Franco, discussing homoerotic viral videos like "Go Fuck Yourself" and "You're So Hot," with Pridesource.
I love both videos. Dave Franco is one funny guy. I will admit that You're So Hot gives me a boner every time.
I swear to God I didn't think, 'Okay, we're gonna make another gay video that's gonna shock people.' Really? Talking about penises and having butt sex with yourself and gay never crosses your mind? Really? I guess he's just a straight guy having all the gay fun he possibly can have.
The 'You're so Hot' link is currently pointing to the wrong video.
But yeah, I don't believe for a second Dave Franco didn't realize the theme of these videos were homoerotic while producing them. I think that's the whole point… the fact that it's purposefully playing off the homoeroticism yet not going all the way.
Both Dave and his brother love to tease, so it is what it is.
@queertypie: Exactly! He's a hot, straight dude playing off of his sexuality — kind of like "trade" for the older people on here. What? Are you a zygote?
This is all bulls*it people. It's just another example of "gay digging" (think "gold digger"). He's just doing all of this "gay-but-not-really-gay" stuff on purpose to feed his narcissistic ego. He's just playing off gay guys and using it to his economic advantage in an era when gay stuff is popular and "all out there". C'mon. He's just another handsome straight guy who knows that he can do this, get away with it, and manipulate gay guys. It happens all the time. But gay guys really need to cut it out and appreciate those who are really gay. No one would care about this if it were a handsome, popular gay actor.
@Caleb in SC: What the fuck does it mean to call someone a sperm and egg? Did I miss something?
@justin_case: Cynical much ??
I'm tired of these "straight" guys who love gay sex. Come out already, or go back to your deep deep closet. We didn't fight for our rights to have people like you.
@justin_case: ??? So as a gay man, I should only appreciate gay artists who approach the subject of sexuality? Sorry, but there are straight artists out there who are able to comment/create art speaking to the sexual spectrum —- just like there are gay artists who can do the same.
The Franco brothers are marketing geniuses. I'm guessing little Franco got some advice from big brother James.
They tapped into a market that others feared. Bravo!

As it was our honeymoon they upgraded us to an ocean view room. Nice location on sea front. Hotel is huge so takes ages to get to your room to lobby. Annoying if you forget anything! Pool area small.
The location of accomidations were perfect. They were very dog friendly in everyway!
Good location We were there for a wedding but the hotel was taken over by a big convention. We couldn't find a seat in the bar/lounge because the convention people overtook The whole place.
We stayed more than a week and the personnel was always very nice and ready to help you. Accomodations (outdoor swimming pool, sauna, health center, mini golf & tennis corts) are very good and well maintained. Restaurants, bar & Pool terrasse served excellent food. Our room was large, quite & well located within the resort. Easy to go to the large Santa Barbara beach. Not too far from Santa Barbara main street (shopping, restaurants, ...). Expensive daily parking fee (18 USD per day) even there is no real alternative. Expensive laundry services. Not enough space around the outdoor swimming pool to relax & enjoy (mainly on Friday, Saturday & Sunday). Too often, not enough persons to serve you at breakfast time and lunch time in August (waiting time is too higher for such location!).
location grounds weather check in staff not great and not accommodating small amount of toiletries in bathroom like they were trying to save money pool area really busy and not a lot of seating lobby dated
The location was across the beach from the waterfront and a block from the main drag of downtown SB so it was a perfect location. The hotel grounds, the main lobby, and the areas open to the public were very nice. That being said, that was the only nice part about this hotel. Oh, and the valet were extremely polite. And a 12pm checkout. The hotel is very large and we walked around for quite a while with our luggage in hand to find the entrance to our building. We we were asked upon check-in if we had a map, but never actually shown where on the map our room was. When we did finally locate the room, adjacent to the elevators (very noisy), the room was horrible. Why we were placed in the disabled accessible room was beyond me for my family of four. At least if there were no more rooms, please let me know upon check-in. I started to make a fuss, but we were only there for one night and to be honest, the lobby was super far and my fiance and I had just carried all the luggage to the room ourselves and were sweating and we had to meet our family for dinner soon. There was no rod to hang our clothes in the closet, but there were several hangars on a hook that I have no clue what I was supposed to do with. The entire bathroom looked like one giant shower with a drain in the middle and the grout looked so dirty, I felt uncomfortable walking in the room at all without my flip flops. The room itself looked as modern/updated as a Motel 6 (no offense Motel 6) but for the cost of the Ritz-Carlton. I was totally unimpressed. I was told there was a free continental breakfast so we headed there the next morning but when my eighteen year old daughter asked the host if this is where we the "free breakfast was," the host corrected her and said, "It's not free-it's complimentary and you need vouchers from the front-desk." Last time I checked, those two words meant the same thing. We all walked over to the concierge desk and I told him we didn't receive vouchers and he responded, "That room doesn't usually qualify for the breakfast. It's only for the upper tiers and Hilton Honors." Shocked by his tone and disbelieving, I repeated the room number and I asked if he were sure. His response was identical and he looked down and continued doing whatever menial task he was doing before. We were dismissed. Never would I stay in this hotel again, no matter what the cost. Unattractive rooms and the worst customer service ever. I loved the Doubletree until this.
The location. cleanliness, costs, fees, housekeeping
The location. The fact when we wanted to open the wine bottle in the room we had to pay 10 dollars to get a bottle opener ! People's clothes left from previous stayers, stuff also under bed. We were told about the wonderful omlettes for breakfast but again this was extra !
Great location
proximity to the ocean and state street. Service staff was courteous too pricey for the amenities. room was standard, generally priced at $110 at other properties. got a terrible massage at the hotel spa
If you want to be able to walk to the beach and walk to shopping, this place is terrific. The pool was clean and double tree cookies are always a nice touch. The staff seems to be pretty well managed. Except for one bar tender, I got the feeling the management must spend time training in hospitality. For the price, (I paid about $360 a night for a standard room) the property in general looks pretty ragged. The rooms and hallways are in need of an upgrade. Even a few days later, I'm still thinking about spending over $50 for my daughter and I to eat some scrambled eggs and drink coffee.
Can't beat the location right on the beach. Grounds are nicely landscaped and beautiful. Handy to have the continental breakfast provided (nothing special but ample fruit, cereal, muffins and coffee). Friendly staff. Rooms are sparse; walls are paper thin between rooms; all hotel room doors slam when closed, shaking our room each time hotel guests come and go. $30 a day extra to park on-site plus valet tips adds up quickly. Except for the fabulous location, hotel guest room feels like a Motel 6 (and we had a partial ocean view deluxe room!)
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Can't beat the location. Incredibly loud drilling, construction or something going upstairs woke us up at 7 AM and wouldn't stop. That was a fun surprise. Tried to call the front desk multiple times with no answer. Eventually got moved to a different room where it was quieter but the hot water more or less didn't work. Also in the new room the overhead light for some insane reason randomly turned on at 6 AM every single morning and woke us up. Pillows left us with aching necks. For the money, the quality of this hotel was impossibly shitty. Staff were very friendly and helpful but whoever owns/runs this place is coasting on the location alone and keeps the rooms in an embarrassing state. Would not stay here again or recommend it.
Location It was an apartment converted to hotel ( I guess) . Hardwood floor when walking made screeching noise ... Also from top floor as well ... When the neighbor rooms use the restroom the water they use in shower or flushing sound was felt like it's happening next to you .. Had only swimming and not enough bikes so don't expect that you will be able to get one.. The telephone was not working ..
Location, location, location Roommate couldn't get into room before 4pm when she arrived mid morning. Not sure what priorities are used to determine which room is cleaned first... was it because I booked through a travel metasearch engine rather than the hotel? Also really surprised that the printer needed a cartridge to print, and staff was not able to print our boarding passes on another printer.
Attractive grounds The room was tiny and very hot with no air circulating. We had to check out.
Absolutely loved this place. The beds were so comfortable, the staff was as friendly as can be, the bike rental was perfect. We stayed in early November for the half marathon (husband and cousin ran it) and the location was perfect. We booked early so got a great price. If you wait, the rooms can be very pricey. It's all about location location location. But we loved it!!!!! Will be back soon.
Location and bikes they provide Remodel going on upstairs from our room. Front desk never told us about it going on. Very noisy and they started at 7:45-7:00 pm
Location, good beds. They charged a $30 a day for parking and a $15 resort fee. We stayed two nights so that was an unexpected extra $100. The next hotel we stayed at didn't play any of those games.
Good location Extremely overpriced hotel. We paid over $400/ night for a room with king bed, so small that you couldn't walk around the bed, room was called Santa Barbara but it was smaller that any room I paid over $400/ night. The tub was very gross and smelly, the headboard to the bed was scratched and disgusting. No air conditioning. Not nice service at the front desk. One of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in.
The room was hot, tiny and extremely uncomfortable. You couldn't even open the window because they had martini glasses, wine bottles, snacks etc in the way. There was no AC and only a fan. If they would invest in some AC units, it would have at least been tolerable. Some of the staff were rude as well. And it was overpriced. Don't stay here, stay anywhere else.
hotel milo was had lovely grounds. everything was nice quality and very comfortable. across the street from the beach and a close walk to state st. the staff (especially Sam!) was very nice and helpful. the walls were quite thin and I could every word from the people in the hall or those at the pool.
Location close to the ocean and nice comfort areas. The bathroom was old, probably needs new plumbing fixtures. Also the tiles were very slippery. Refrigerator wasn't working, and ice machines are located in remote areas of the hotel grounds. The room was hot and humid, might need central air to help with this problem.
Relatively quiet hotel away from the hustle and bustle of it all. restaurant on site. parking is near room. hotel was out of towels for pool area. had to wait 30 minutes for them to go and pick some laundered ones up. hotel is really outdated....wallpaper was peeling and ripped in the bathrooms...dingy green carpet was not appealing, nor was the dark old furniture. receptionist took a phone call as she saw me walking to counter to check in and i was left standing for well over 5 minutes. then, she wasn't apologetic at all and a bit cold.
nice kitchen quite rooms no jacuzzi
Room have no insolution at all, can't sleep till 2am due to next door's noise.
very clean rooms,relaxing;quiet;friendly personal,fresh fruits in the room;nice location but far from the beach
Every thing was as represented, made my stay very easy.
Clean, new, comfortable and quiet. Liked it all.
I enjoyed having the restaurant on site, the food was very good. And my son enjoyed the pool.
It was a very clean hotel with an amazingly friendly and helpful staff.
The room decor, comfort and the surroundings were nice. We were in room 242 which was right next to the front desk, on the first floor. During the evening (10:00 - 10:30 PM) we could hear the noise from someone walking around in the room above. I couldn't figure out why there was so much movement in a small room. The same thing happened in the early morning (6:00 AM - 6:45 AM) It reminded me of a cheap apartment in New York where you could hear the person on the floor above bustling about, getting ready for bed and for work in the morning. Wasn't happy. Front desk said the usual.. "sorry about that". Words are words. Lowering my bill makes me feel a little better. For $300+ per night, I should sleep like a baby.
Clean, walking distance from the beach, close to downtown Santa Barbara, good price, free breakfast Motel style with exterior doors, could hear neighbors coming and going (this was not actually very disruptive), slow wifi
Staff, room, pool, location good breakfast. Liked it so much going back in December for long week-end.
Location Pool didn't open until 9:00!!
Great location/service and friendly staff.
Very friendly and dedicated staff; breakfast included hot and cold items and was well-stocked with friendly service; pool area was nice and water was kept very warm; beds were comfortable, room felt spacious for a family; sliding glass doors to patio did an amazing jobof blocking street noise. We would definitely stay here again.
the ping pong table was great! and the heated pool was nice since it got chilly at night. also, the older man at the front desk was very nice. everything else. for example: bad lighting, hard sheets; poor TV service; bent screen on window which meant we couldn't get any air circulation in the room without letting mosquitoes in, which meant we had to endure the very loud A/C when we wanted air circulation; water from the bathroom sink smelled strongly of sulfur; lots of fruit flies/gnats in the room, and some spiders, too.... you get the point.
I liked the convenience to major restaurants and shopping. It was not too far from the beach. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I can't think of anything that I didn't like.
Conveniently located on State street. Short walk to downtown, and across the street from Cantwells deli/market. Recently remodeled, so everything is new and clean. Towels were nice and plush. My room was small, but that was fine. Decent free breakfast in the morning, and the coffee wasn't bad. A tad bit noisy if your room borders the street. But traffic dies down at night, so it didn't keep me awake. Wifi speeds/latency weren't great.
There was free parking, the hotel was near the places and restaurants we wanted to go to, it was also close to a gas station and a 7 Eleven. There was a free breakfast included in the price saving us time and money. The building has an elevator. The beds were very high and there were no bars in the restroom to help people with disabilities or Senior Citizens who have difficulty moving. There were no Senior Citizen or AARP discount rates.
spacious room dirty towel left from last guest
The room was really nice
good location worn and used building, quite noisy inside, breakfast not really good
free parking and free internet Very late breakfaste. 7.30 AM, I am on the road at this time
Reception wasn't friendly Very poor shower, almost no running water
Location right on State Street where all of the great shops and restaurants are was great. Valet guys were pretty nice. Room smelled slightly smoky even though it was a non smoking room. Our room was close to the ancient elevator from 1926 and it sounded like our hotel room was in a subway station which was a bummer when we wanted to sleep in. A bunch of sketchy characters hang out right outside the front door of the hotel on State Street at night. Wasn't aware that parking was $10 until we arrived at the hotel.
The bed was so comfy and I like noon check out:) The room was a little small
location Room smelled like smoke even though it was a non-smoking room. We called the front desk and were offered another room however.
Great location, it is right at the very central of downtown area. Close to all the good eating locations. the room is clean. Staff is very friendly. THE ELEVATOR!!!! OMG!!!!
Historic hotel. Great location! Friendly staff A bit noise at night from the surrounding bars but not too bad. Rooms are a bit small Only one slow antique elevator.
The breakfast and nice size rooms. I like the parking valet system too. The wifi does not work, so it's frustrating.
Bed was comfortable The walls are so thin that you hear conversations next door and people walking and even moving in their bed above you. If you stay here, at least insist on an upper level room.
We had such a great time and were extremely pleased with the West Beach Inn! Everything about the hotel was perfect.....the staff, the room, the grounds and the pool were exceptional!
The hotel felt old and worn out. The Wi-Fi didn't work consistently. The tub didn't drain and even a short shower resulted in standing in ankle deep water.
the staff was great, we were greeted with wine, we had to change rooms and they were very accommodating. there were little gnats or fruitflies in our rooms (we changed rooms and the fruitflies were there too)- the bathrooms could've been cleaner- the tub had hair in it and could use a little bleach in the corners
Waterfront location, architecturally attractive older main building Steep parking cost, no free wifi in the (ancillary) building I was in
Not much to like there Old, run down and grossly overpriced. Garbage truck visits every morning - noise as if it is parking in your room. Oh yes, do not forget freeway noise - omnipresent. We were seduced by the brand name and made a mistake. Not all Hyatt properties are made equal. This one is a dump.
The location and view of the ocean across the street is great. Way overpriced for the mediocre room/facilities. You're paying for the ocean view and Santa Barbara. The bathroom was small and dirty - the toilet wasn't functioning properly and the shower had clumps of hair in it. The elevator jolted upon the doors closing and had an expired permit in it. The AC unit was very loud and mounted near the head of the bed - it was so loud we had to turn it off to sleep, and it was a hot/humid evening. Over $350/night and I had a 'view' of the motel 6 outside of my window. Overall disappointed.
The location is great, close to everything. The staff was pleasant. The rooms really need to be extensively remodeled, at the very least. It feels like a 50 year old building. Relatively clean, but after this much use, it feels, looks, and smells old. Astonishingly bad value - we paid well over $500/night for a second floor ocean view room. If it had been half that, I would have said it was about right for the money.
Staff was excellent, made our stay special. Beautiful views of the ocean from our room/private terrace. Comfortable beds and maid service was great. Must pay each day for parking ($28) in addition to hotel price. Street parking was hard to find at times at night. Unclear if water was filtered, must use tap as bottled water was not provided. Layout of buildings is a bit confusing.
It's a decent bed to sleep in at a reasonable price for the city it's in. Room clean. Bad neighborhood, limited parking, 70's era facilities.
Needs some updating. Shower doors, etc.
Clean rooms, attentive staff at front desk Wifi didn't work in the room behind the pool, too much noise from neighboring guests
For some reason I felt this was an indoor hotel, not a motel. Past that shock, the location is very convenient. The room is small with a tiny bathroom. The bed was not comfortable and the cable tv has bad reception. Want coffe? Think again, as i checked the coffee maker there was an used coffee pouch in- do they ever get cleaned?! I say this is ok for a one night stay, not a good deal for the price.
The service and property are the best we've seen in southern California we really enjoyed our stay and it's such beautiful scenery that you must stay at this hotel the food was delicious and they even have a car to take you where ever you want to go so you don't have to worry about driving after an all day wine tasting. The concierge will set up tours for you and give you advice on which placeset to visit while you are there a 5 star hotel hands down
The hotel is located in a great location for tourism in Santa Barbara. Beautiful area and great weather. Room was decently furnished and comfortable bedding. Just don't leave anything in the room of value! I'm not talking just jewelry or laptops but expensive toiletries and skin care products. My wife accompanied me on this trip and on two different occasions her skin care products were pilfered and stolen. Not just a portion of the product but every drop removed from the container and empty bottle left behind. Of course their hotel policy states they accept no responsibility for loss if item not secured in safe deposit box at front desk. But come on make up and lotion in the SAFE! ?? Stay at ypour own risk!!
The room fit the Spanish feel of the town, comfortable and roomy. I had a nice stay.
In planning girls weekend in Santa Barbara, I was trying to find a hotel that was on the more inexpensive side, centrally located to all the action on State Street, yet comfortable for four women with all our bags. This place was perfect! The price was totally reasonable and the room was clean and spaceous. We had an amazing weekend and will definitely stay here again next time we visit. :)
We asked for a quiet room and were happy with it. The staff was very\nknowledgeable and helpful. The breakfast was fine--and the woman who\nprepared it baked homemade cookies for everyone!\n\nIt's an old historic building with some flaws, but the furnishings are lovely.
Went to a family wedding in Santa Barbara. Three couples stayed here. Two couples had rooms in front. One in back. The ones in back had an ok nights sleep. Didn't hear too much noise. But us in front - well let me start with someone on a skateboard outside on the sidewalk at 3 a.m.,(we were on the second floor), people walking in the hallway at 4 a.m. and hearing their entire conversation. . Toilets flushing at all hours. Garbage being picked up at 5 a.m. A train whistle early in the a.m. The topper being at 8 a.m. when we all checked out the 'Continental Breakfast' - very poor. I went to the front desk and asked the clerk if there were any vineyards he could reccomend and he responded 'I don't drink'. What does that have to do with anything! I didn't ask him to go for a drink with me! Again I asked him 'Are there any wineries or vineyards in the area we could visit before going back to LA - again he responded 'I don't drink'. Let me tell you that was the topper for that...
WE had a wedding in Montecito and came down from San Franisco. This is right next to State Street and all of the great shops- it was a bit expensive for the type of room, but staff is courteous and room was clean- just what we needed. Would stay again.Also they have a good neighbor policy to snure you have a quiet experience!
My family of four shared a 2-bedroom room, with a roll-away bed. It was a reasonably economical stay. The hotel is nice and clean. Very good free breakfast. Best of all, is the location. State Street is a half-block walk away. Up and down there is a huge variety of restaurants and shops. In warm weather, sidewalk cafe seating is common. It's also a short 6-block walk to the beach. For most activities, we left the car parked and walked. Not common in Southern California. The roll-away is best suited to young kids. My teenagers could feel the springsbut it cut down on the fights over who was hogging the covers.
Just 1/2 block from State street the downtown restaurant district starts right next door. Small clean rooms, good parking and a friendly staff. Comfortable pillow top beds.In the end it's all about the location. Keith
I wanted a romantic place to enjoy our 3rd wedding anniversary, and this was PERFECT! The hotel is obviously historic. I have stayed at newer hotels and the walls were paper thin. This old gem is solid brick and that adds to its charm. The parking lot is a little small, but they offer complimentary valet servide so it was never an issue (nice touch!). Also, I could tell that they spend a lot of money on their complimentary breakfast. Most hotels offer a continental breakfast, but here they add hard boiled eggs, omlets and yogurt along with fresh fruit for those who want to stay away from the carbs.\n\nMy wife and I felt appreciated and pampered by the front desk staff. Even the housekeeping staff was friendly and courteous. If I must spend a little more to stay in Santa Barbara, this hotel is the one that I would want next time!
This hotel was in a great location, but it is very old. My room was on the first floor and the room was very small. But, it is within walking distance of downtown so if you don't plan on spending a lot of time in the room, it's a good spot.
Everything was great, except the upstairs neighbors! It sounded like there was a gymnastics tournement going on above us, at 6 AM no less! That would be my only complaint, maybe they need to work on soundproofing between floors.
The hotel is conveniently located at the end of State St with an easy walk to most shops and restaurants. There is ample parking for guests and the front desk employees were extremely helpful. Breakfast was mediocre but one can't complain when it is complimentary. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Although the walls were a little thin. For the price and location I would without a doubt, recommend to fellow travelers.
Young waiter in restaurant Desk clerk at check-out
-The patios/balconies for every room -The restaurant and its patio away from the street -A car is required as hotel is not located in the city center - Our room was a bit dark but that depends on rooms / sun exposure and might be an asset on hot days
Hotel is old
Patio with table and chairs and the open back to court yard and pool. No micro or fridge for the price that was payed. But this will be the place I stay when in Santa Barbara.
Need more ending machines
Parking was close to the room. Pool was big. Loved the patio area leading to the pool. Bathrooms need a bit of an update. There was a big spider crawling up the wall beside one of the beds when we arrived.
Lush greenery. Bed was very uncomfortable! Very noisy, difficult to sleep! Room lights were too dim in the sink area. No tissue in the room.
Second visit. Fun place to stay. Nice facilities. First choice for Santa Barbara.
Great breakfast in the adjoining restaurant! My private balcony had a bright light on all night which I could not turn off. Some other balconies may have had this but most did not.
Location is convenient to central Santa Barbara and pool area is very nice. Little to no soundproofing between rooms, particularly at floors. Request an upper floor room if you don't want to hear everything happening above you.
Nice room with patio looking at a well kept garden, quiet, very comfortable bed, good restaurant, we will stay here again
Good price for the location and for a short stay. TV, patio and bed were good. Not the most updated of hotels. It was clean, but because of the older fixtures and tiles/carpet it made it seem just super old.
Good location for the beach area,quiet aeea but close to action.Reception staff very helpful. Queen room quiet small.Breakfast very poor did complain about the variety and lack of key products.Expensive stay and it lacked value for money.
A quiete hotel located in walking distance to a number of good restaurants in the beach area.
My boyfriend and I stayed here for 3 days 2 nights as a getaway trip from work and we loved our little cottage! We booked the Santa Cruz Cantina and it was perfect for us! We loved the separate rooms and facilities within our own private little house. The only problem we had with our room was that the drains in the bathroom sink and bath tub didn't drain properly. The plug seemed to be stuck and had to be lifted/taken out by hand in order for water to drain.
A beautiful hotel with really nice comfortable rooms. In a great location only minutes away from the beach and a 10 minute walk from the main nightlife.
Local to event Very rude staff
Great location, great staff, great hotel
The staff was very nice and help to direct us around town I feel the size of the room was way to small for the price
helpful suggestions and cooperation with scheduling two blocks from the beach
Our family of four had a great time at the Eagle Inn. Lovely rooms & super bathrooms. Breakfast was prepared and served individually. They even had cruiser bikes available that we used to explore Santa Barbara, which, given the super location, was easy to do. We liked the place so much, so didn't mind that there was only one queen bed per room. Rooms are too small for two beds, but fine with one bed. We also had one person who couldn't have taken the stairs, and were lucky to have downstairs room. Not sure if there was an elevator, so visitors should check for availability of downstairs rooms.
The bedroom was amazing, perfect for lovers. The staff to the lobby was not really warmful
homeliness and location.
Very nice hotel with a friendly staff and in a great location. I will definitely stay again
Service and location
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
Best location in Santa Barbara, right across from the beach and wharf. Ref in room was a mini bar, had to use my own cooler for drinks I brought to room. Ice machines were near by… not to much of an inconvenience.
Location and facility were top notch! The staff could not have been nicer. Very personable and friendly. We felt like friends. Definitely recommend.
The staff at the front desk. Super-welcoming, and they gave us a map of the area, as well as some recommendations, when they found out that it was our first time in the area. Nothing, I would definitely return. I would upgrade again to a waterfront view.
Rooms were very clean. Easy parking and amazing location.
Staff was friendly and helpful Construction was loud
Well worth the money... beautiful rooms.
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
the beach across the street. Desk staff were very helpful.
Hotel was good...clean, comfortable, convenient, but it was the staff that inspired me to give the excellent rating. They were the best I've ever encountered at a hotel. Gave good suggestions for dining and just very friendly and helpful with any request.
Purchased this room on Hotwire to find it was $30 cheaper if I had called the hotel directly. Handicapped accommodations so that there was very little shelf space in the bathroom. Towel racks were grab bars next to the toilet. No place to sit except desk or bed. Used q-tips on floor. Second time that we stayed there but very disappointed this visit. Brunch was so crowded that you couldn't sit down and the staff couldn't keep things stocked.
Continental breakfast! Pool and Jacuzzi =) They did not have rooms ready. Waited 2 hours for our room to be ready! Frustrating!
The staff provided good customer service. Throughout the facility, it was evident that the facility is in desperate need of a major remodel. There was a constant musky smell in the facility. Fixtures were outdated.
The room was clean and comfortable. It was stocked appropriately. The room was quiet even though it was close to freeway. The breakfast was very bad. The eggs was over cooked, coffee was terrible, waffle taste like cardboard. The seating area was too small.
the beds were comfortable Their key system broke down and we were unable to get into our room for over an hour. Concerning and a inconvenience to end the night after a wedding.
Love the location - near Vons, In-N-Out ,and close to the freeway. The pool and spa are great and the grounds are very relaxing. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfy. This was the second time i stayed here. I really dislike the A/C in the rooms. they do not work right. It shuts off when it wants and goes on periodically. This NEEDS to be updated soon. I would definitely choose a room downstairs and facing the pond and pool.
The room was decent and clean for the most part. There was a crunched up sock in the curtain, which was weird but we didn't mind it. Overall, the property was quiet, and we had a good night's sleep. Honestly, we spent very minimal time at the hotel itself.

Great seller, fast shipping
I have been supplementing with this product or similarly for many years. I am 59 yrs young. I know this product works based on the research that's been done. I still play very competitive soccer with guys 15-20 yrs younger than me. this is part of having a healthy diet.
I used to take a secretagoge from a company that does not carry the product now, with incredible results. I was looking for a company with something similar but this product seemed to do nothing for me. It is also very sweet and seemed to leave sugar at the bottom of the glass that did not mix well. I will try another product from another company.
I don't know what the hell is in this stuff but its like a cure all for any ailment. It's seriously ridiculous! I'm at 9% body fat.. I feel like a new man. I haven't been sick at all! Plus I have kids so you know those little shits bring home diseases all the time! My wife says I look 10 years younger.. And I'm thinking about getting a mistress.
I have been using this product for 3 years. Just had my 60th birthday. One thing you do not get from the instructions is that you should take this supplement for three months and then take a month off. If you go to the MHP website there is documentation about how to use it. A few things I have noticed about my body since I have used this is that, my hair has not turned grey, It is getting thinner but has stayed brown. I had liver spots on my hands before use and they are now almost completely gone. I try to work out 3 days a week with a superset type workout, quick reps with little rest between sets as I rotate between two or three different exercises. I can complete a workout in about 40 minutes that way after a 30 min run or bike. Since I have started on this supplement I can work harder on the exercises and recover sooner. Im not trying to build, just maintain and be in reasonable shape for my age. I have also noticed that at the end of the recommended month off using the S-one that I have less energy. It is definitly worth a try to see if it works for you.

Glorious day started fine mentally too until the moment I walked in the door at school...........this place does my head in sometimes oh well - best man up and get on with it!

Nogs, hope the gob is feeling OK now. I was really surprised how much better my whole mouth felt once the offending tooth was gone.
Now---I am NOT a total Scrooge!! I didn't know it was my SS prezzie, there was nothing on the outside to say so, no postmark or identifier so I could have guessed it was WAISter, and as we all order prezzies on the internet (the boys use several of my accounts) I opened it to see what it was and whose it might be. My SS veruy sensibly didn't wrap the gloves, so I couldn't help seeing them. Please, please, can I still come to Christmas???

Clinch- warm
Fished the Clinch this morning and kept noticing the water felt abnormally warm every time I landed a fish. Eventually took the temp and it was 62 degrees. Very strange for it to be this warm, if this was early November I'd just chalk it up to lake turnover but its way early for that.
Just thought it was odd, fish were fine and feisty but the water is much warmer than it should be for this time of year
I was also fishing today and didn't think a thing about it until I read your post. I got there early and was worried I would be cold based on the outside temp this morning but what surprised at the water temp and how good it felt. Glad you had a good day, I landed a few but based on me and the people around me I didn't see a whole lot of action.
What were you using?
I fished midge pupae for the first couple of hours. Then switched to a pheasant tail.
It wasn't the best day ever, but it was pretty good overall. A lot of the rainbows were really dark in coloration in almost spawning type colors, which was somewhat odd as well
Possibly lake turnover?
Way too early for that, and from being on the upper end of the lake at the same general time, days before/days after, the lake has not turned over. It takes surface temps reaching the 50's for the lake to even think about turning over, which won't happen until early November usually.
It may have been all the rain the day before you fished that warmed up the upper layer of the river....?
I have been getting an average of 58 Deg. from Massengill upwards on the top layer of water. From PO downward it seems to stay around 60 Deg.
And both of those are really high for this time of year, we should be seeing water temps in the low 50's all the way down towards Clinton.
It may be that with all of the rain this summer that the lake is full of warmer water and that the thermocline was reduced.
Like I said, the fish were fine, and no worries about them, I just found it odd.

The perfect antidoteDecember 10,2012
The perfect antidote
After the overdose of short-view analysis about the recent election, I enjoyed reading Bill Brysons At Home: A Short History of Private Life. It was fun and a change, but its 632 pages and long view of 19th-century English social history also shed a lot of light on our American 21st century.
Bryson describes the excessive privileges wealth, feelings of superiority and self-justifying rationalizations of the English landowning class. This 1 percent who obtained riches from privatizing common agricultural land built extravagant residences taken care of by looked-down-upon, overworked and under-rewarded servants.
Todays 1 percent doesnt seem so different. They obtain riches by owning and taking most of the rewards of more productive machines, not sharing them with the workers using those machines, largely because of an oversupply of labor at home and abroad.
There was one difference, though. When bad weather and the competition of American agricultural products hit Englands landowner class in the late 19th century, they were devastated despite their feelings of superiority and had to bail themselves out by selling their titles to the American wealthy via marriage and their accumulated valuables to American museums.
Bryson also describes the tremendous changes taking place during the 19th-century Industrial Revolution, both helpful and harmful. These changes will no doubt even be greater in our 21st century as the immense growth of production, energy use and stress on our Earth is accelerating.
Bryson tells us that of the total energy used on Earth since the Industrial Revolution, half of that energy has been in the last 20 years, and almost all of that in the developed world. This acceleration in all our world cannot go on forever, even if most of the electorate today thinks our Earth can handle it.
Looking at history is a good antidote for the 24-hour news cycle.

Keep us posted on the outcome.
I'm not here to trash anyone. I'm just frustrated dealing with WP on private message and getting no where. Placed an order for 6 tren ace and 6 test Enth on 8/31. I still have not recieved products. I was sent 6 test prop my mistake which WP insists thAt I pay for. I hear nothing but good thing about WP from all the reps on this board, so I don't understand why it is so difficult to make this order right.
Keep us posted on the outcome.
I gotta say, I'm surprised to read this...
This account and all comments made by account holder are for entertainment purposes only, anabolic steroid use is illegal without a prescription.
Keepin Green.
hey man..you need to tell you order on sale more then 30-35 vials..now miss only 6 tren i already resent it 1 time! NO CUSTOM LETTER.I DO NOT RESEND ANYTHING..BUT OK,I DID AND RESENT IT! ALL OTHER GOT ALWAYS ALL ONLY YOU NOT!
also about enath...you talk all the time you want 6 prop..+6 TREN then you make order test e and i didnt see since we keep talk test prop and tren and i ship prop..after you receive it and say you order test e i see i make mistake because you keep asking for test prop not testo e..so you its why mistake happen,and you know i resend also testo e!!!! even if you already have testo prop!
about tren,i sent it and i also resent it..
i am not here to scam,and you pay 60$ vial not full price..so i can only say i lost big big money with your order!
in 4 years i am here i never make anybody unhappy!
here are dates of tren resend!
3 x tren 13.10.
3 x 12.10.
WP has always been one thing for sure and that's reliable...
This account and all comments made by account holder are for entertainment purposes only, anabolic steroid use is illegal without a prescription.

I really love W.P. products but his shipping has slacked as of lately. I dont know why but my last 2 orders have come up short but he always resends for me. I just placed another order with him and I'm hoping not to have any problems this time, if I do I'm confident he will make good as always
Sometimes things drag in customs. I have seen stuff breeze through in days, and then other times sit there for weeks. So its not always the shippers fault when a pack is late.
I didn't understand one word in that paragraph a big no no when someone is reping a company and can barely explain anything gezz
I have ordered several packages from WP and they all came in record timing. If there's one thing I would trust WP it's shipping his products quickly and safely.
He always comes through and will fix something if it goes south. I've been working with the man on and off for over 5 years. Here and on other boards. His prices have dropped, his service is fast, and guys I know that use him are always more than satisfied. Win win all around.

TheCaptn' is not a registered proctologist. His post are for his amusement only. Please seek proper medical advice if symptoms persist.
There is now 4 years that i order from WP and I never had any single prob; otherwise just fix your problem directly with WP don't need to post it here on public.
i am sure you will or got it all.since all always got it all on time! i did all right.its all up to post service!...i did even more..resend it with no custom letter prof,etc! also free gear and sale gear i do not resend,see my shop info..but i still do it since i am good man and fair man..but....
This is exactly what is what you should have done. You went directly to the source first....privately...and gave him the chance to correct his mistake, which he did. This is common courtesy when dealing with UGL's. We have all been told that if something goes wrong with an order, etc, that we should first approach the source in private and try to resolve the issue before going public. Why? Because when someone publically complains about a UGL, even if no one made a mistake, it reflects badly on the UGL. This is why we ALWAYS give the UGL an opportunity to correct issues before going public....and if they do correct the issue, the problems STAYS private.
I am using your story as an example of how NOT to deal with UGL's!!! In your case, even after WP fixed his small, innocent mistake and made things right, here you are re-hashing the minor incident publically. Not cool.
In your mind, you probably think that the few compliments you gave him nullify the negative remarks, but they don't. All anyone sees is a 2nd person complaining about WP. The next time something is resolved behind closed doors, leave it there!
Not true at all that's why therrs a tracking number they can see if it was received in which date and time don't bullshit please
Your pack was delivered today. I see more and more guys looking for proviron. Perhaps offer it to those who place orders in access of $500? Just an idea brother. LMK what you think about those other things I sent ya. I sent some to this one cat, and he slepped for 24 hrs. LMFAO!! LMK also if you need more proviron brother. Hope you are well.

Lol. I have no idea who you guys are talking to in the last 5 post. Still waiting patiently over here.
And another week goes by...
If u want to get again a free gear just wait a new WP lottery.

I have worked in the mortgage business since 1998 when one of my teachers at Portland Bible College told me he was a part time loan officer. Since then I have worked for several mortgage brokers until the opportunity to open a branch office for NovaStar Home Mortgage was made available to me in 2003. I have been a branch manager since that time, responsible for as many as 15 loan originators at any given time.
My family and I recently transferred to Tennessee and I the branch manager for one of the countries fastest growing mortgage bankers. We are conveniently located about 1 -1/12 hours between the 3 major cities of East Tennessee; Knoxville, Nashville and Chattanooga.
My experiences in ministry, loan officer, branch manager has given me an exceptional base to work from to serve the needs of my clients. I like to think of myself as a "loan technician". After working on literally thousands of files I can analyze a situation; foresee potential issues that the underwriter may have with a loan and work to avoid, or resolve the problem beforehand. I have been very successful in this regard and have closed a number of loans that I do not think would have closed with many loan officers. Unfortunately, today that leads me to tell some that they cannot qualify for a loan program today, yet even then I can often prescribe plan to follow in order for them to qualify for the loan they want in as short of a time frame as possible.
The benefit of working with me goes beyond my expertise in getting loans closed. I am also very interested in creating "loyal fans" as opposed to satisfied customers. To accomplish this I will seek to engage you in the process from the very beginning. Taking the time to inform you of the process, step by step; making sure you are informed and comfortable with the direction we are headed.
I have learned that satisfied customers are pretty easy to get, don't lie to them or cheat them, while "raving fans" are harder to come by. For satisfied customers to become raving fans you must exceed their expectations, provide an experience that was less painful, more informative, and more comfortable than any other they have encountered. It is my goal to create a "raving fan" with every transaction. Raving fans cannot help but tell others about you, they want the people they care about to work with someone they know will do a good job and treat them as well as they were treated.
I am a man of faith and strive daily to live my life and conduct my affairs in a way that is pleasing to Jesus. While this often not a part of any conversations I have with my clients, and I would not be considered pushy by anyone, it does govern what I will and will not do.
I promise that if you give me the opportunity to earn your business, I will earn your loyalty.
