The text is big and bold. The paper has almost no bleed-through.
I've shown it to a few people, and their immediate reaction was, "I want one." I highly recommend it.
R. L. Allan's KJV Long Primer in Atlantic Blue Calfskin
Thanks to the 400th Anniversary of the King James Version, the venerable classic is getting an unaccustomed amount of media attention, spearheaded by a selection of new histories recounting the origin story of the translation. All this has inspired readers who wouldn't ordinarily consider ploughing through the thees and thous to take a second look. The KJV gets a bad rap on two counts: the archaic language and the out-of-date scholarship. In both cases, the difficulties are exaggerated. If you're reasonably literate and not prone to basing wild interpretative assumptions on unfamiliar English usage, you should do just fine.
The question is, which KJV to read? We are truly spoiled for choices. Since the KJV was the standard translation until relatively recently, it is available in an extraordinary variety of editions, including vintage ones printed on paper rather nicer than what is typically available today. For that reason, there is no one recommendation to make. I've written about many KJVs in the past, and I'll be highlighting more this year.
Above: The KJV Long Primer in Atlantic Blue Calfskin (color accurate).
One of my personal favorites is the KJV Long Primer from R. L. Allan, which is now available with a limited edition Atlantic Blue calfskin cover. I first wrote about the Long Primer back in May of 2008, when the only color option was black, and mentioned it again after the latest printing, which introduced some aesthetic refinements and added a brown goatskin cover option. The blue calfskin edition has been produced in a limited quantity of 400 in honor of the KJV's anniversary.
When I heard about the plan to offer a blue Long Primer, I was intrigued. I have a soft spot for colors other than basic black. For some people, I realize, the Bible ought to be as black as a puritan's doublet on a particularly dark night. They subscribe to the Henry Ford school of consumer choice: any color you want, so long as it's black. If you don't happen to agree, then the recent revival of color in Bible binding recently is a wonderful thing. The alternatives I'm particularly partial to are browns, tans, and reds. But I've written in the past about blue Bibles, too.
Above: Like other Long Primers, this one comes with three thick ribbons
and gilt lines around the inside edge of the cover.
The question in my mind was, "How blue is Atlantic Blue going to be?" Instead of the deep, dark, saturated blue I imagined, it is actually a lighter slate blue, a very calm and refined shade. The calfskin displays plenty of grain, and compares favorably to Allan's goatskin covers in terms of limpness. All the styling cues are consistent with the black and brown Long Primers: three ribbons, gilt lines running around the inside edge of the cover, and art-gilt page edges (though with a difference, as we shall see).
In the photograph above, you can observe the "difference" I mentioned. Instead of red-under-gold page edges, the Atlantic Blue Long Primer comes with blue-under-gold page edges. From some angles they appear very gold, from others there's a powdery blue tint. When the Bible is open and the page edges settle, the edges appear bright blue, as below:
From the outside, the slate blue cover gives off a serene vibe. Opened flat, with the bright red ribbons and the bright blue page edges, this edition makes a loud statement. It reminds me of a sober business suit with a flashy lining underneath. Here are two more views to illustrate the variations:
Like the other Long Primers, this one is printed in the Netherlands by Jongbloed on acid free paper, and includes the licence granted to R. L. Allan & Son to print the KJV, signed by the Lord Advocate. This detail makes the Long Primer particularly apt for those wanting an anniversary KJV for nostalgic purposes. This one is authorized indeed.
One of the things I have always appreciated about the Long Primer is how limp and flexible the covers are, which contributes to the book's ability to open flat, even at the beginning. There's nothing stiff or uncooperative about this edition. It doesn't need to be "broken in." From the start, it feels like an old friend in the hand, ready to be read at length.

If there is any drawback to the KJV's aura of tradition, it's the straightjacket this perception tends to put on page layout. While there are exceptions, most settings of the translation are very old fashioned in appearance: double columns, every verse starting on a fresh line as if it were a paragraph all on its own, apparatus cluttering the text. Often font choices are archaic, the assumption being that people reading an old version want it to look old. I won't belabor the point. If you've read much of this blog, you know where my sympathies are.
Having said that, some old fashioned layouts are better than others. I find the Long Primer to be one of the most readable. I don't know if it's the font choice or size, the overall proportions, or what, but the columns are relatively uncluttered. If you want to have the "classic" KJV reading experience, the Long Primer offers that — with one exception. The translators had the idea that each English word in the text would stand for its equivalent in the original, and that any additional words that needed to be added to flesh out the sense in English would be rendered in italics. The Long Primer doesn't follow this convention.
The purist in me is confounded by that decision, but I have to admit it probably contributes to the Long Primer's harmonious flow. I'm no linguist, so I'm not going to get into the implications of italicizing the "supplied" words, except to make two observations. First, having grown up with the KJV, it was not uncommon for people in church to mistakenly believe that the non-italicized words were the inspired ones, and the others were second-tier. I remember people who tried skipping over the italicized bits in an effort to get the unmediated "pure" Word. The absurdity of this, from a common sense standpoint, is hopefully apparent. Second, no one translating a book from one language to another would follow this convention now. In other words, I'm not going to get bent out of shape about the absence of the italics, but I can understand why you would prefer them.

I purchased the KJV Long Primer in atalantic blue a few weeks ago, and I am very happy with it. I wasn't sure I was going to like the blue, but it's great. To me, the cover is actually a little darker than it appears in photos. That's a good thing.
The first picture that is labeled color accurate matches my copy (and my wife's copy) pretty well. This bible is just about perfect. I love the unique color and the calfskin is different than most calfskin I run across. It's not as floppy as the calfskin that you'll get from Crossway or Holman.
The text block is amazing. It is probably the best I have run across in terms of paper quality and printing.
I find myself reading the KJV much more than I usually do. I ended up ordering one for my wife because she wanted mine.
By custom and habit, I am not a KJV reader (though it is the translation of my youth). To celebrate the 400th anniversary this year, however, I have been reading from the New Cambridge Paragraph Bible in the mornings and the Atlantic Blue Long Primer in the evenings.
In a relatively short time, I've grown quite fond of the Long Primer. Partly it's a design issue. The blue under gold provides a calm frame to the text block in a way that red under gold doesn't. I find I can read for a long time before eye fatigue takes over.
And I'll second what John S said about about the paper quality and printing. Nothing else I own compares.
I've just received a 53BR Long Primer, and it is amazing. Even though I also subscribe to the single column philosophy (the HCSB get's it largely right), there's something 'correct' about the LP. The proportions are right, margins as well as leading, the 'depth' of the font is excellent, and the dating in the center column is excellent.
The Long Primer KJV and the ESVR1 are now my main goto bibles.
And the paper….. the best I've seen in a modern block.
I received my Atl blue a few weeks ago. I will say this. It is as limp as the highland goatskin, but it is not as soft. I am afraid the other Allan's have ruined me 🙂 I prefer the grainier texture, and I should have known the calfskin would be smoother. I decided to send it back and get the brown longprimer. My wife couldn't believe it and asked if I would only be happy if my next bible was bound in certified virgin human flesh. She was agitated needless to say. I have the brown now. I do not regret it. It is absolutely, positively, wonderfully bound.
This blue longprimer is absolutely beautiful, a real pleasure to hold, read and use. I've never seen calfskin so soft, but I'm sure it's largely helped by the soft interior leather lining!
I just purchased a Black Longprimer and love it, not only the binding and goatskin (not my first Allan, but according to my wife my last! lol) but I actually like the translation as well. It's the first I've picked up a KJV in 30+ years. I agree the paper is marvelous, second only to the ESV reader, and the print and font size are wonderful for my aging eyes. While the NAS Allan v by v is a little annoying, the Longprimer is just fine. There are only two minor criticisms of the Longprimer: 1, the center column referenes are a little small, and 2, there are enough missing parts of letters scattered throughout to be a little disappointing. While I've not noticed that in the NAS China printed text, it is interesting that it is found in the 'superior' Jongbloed text.
But all in all perhaps the best Allan, neck in neck overall with the ESV reader!
I almost did not buy this Bible, which would have been a HUGE mistake! I had already purchased a tan ESV Reader (because I like the translation and can't resist the tan) and most recently a crimson NASB SCR (because every Bible should be red). I had a hard time justifying a third purchase, but eventually convinced myself because I didn't think I'd be around to celebrate the KJV's 500th anniversary. Some of the very reasons that made me reluctant to buy one now turn out to be the very reasons for loving this Bible. The Atlantic blue is perfect–understated, not gawdy. The blue-under-gold makes the edges look almost silver at some angles or under certain lighting (which I love–my first blue Bible was a thinline NASB with silver edges). The double gilt lines on the inside covers add a touch of class. The red ribbon markers (which made the most nervous) provide a bold contrast with the white pages and blue cover and edges. I think it works because the blue is a soft slate hue and not bright and the white (and they are WHITE) pages are covered with that wonderfully dark, thick font. As much as I love the highland goatskin, I'm glad they went with the calfskin cover and leather-lined interior. It's every bit as flexible, and I enjoy the different look and feel. It adds to this edition's uniqueness. Above all, this is one of the most (if not the most) legible Bibles ever. It's been great getting back into reading the Bible I grew up with. I thought that if I wasn't too impressed with it that at least I'll have something of a collector's item. I've been reading the Longprimer almost exclusively since a got it two weeks ago and am reading and preaching from it, too. Never anticipated that it would be giving my ESV or NASB a well-deserved rest.
Can't say enough good things about the Atlantic Blue Longprimer. The color the feel the readability, and oh yes, it's a Limited Edition! The blue page edges add something to the overall readability in my opinion. I bought two so if I do end up wearing this one out I'll have a brand new one in the box waiting still wrapped in the paper.
Love your blog, even though it's difficult to decide whether thousands of words devoted to the appreciation of Bibles bound in the supple skins of dead goats and calves is more like gluttony or lust, or if it casts a category of death-rooted irony as a 21st-century-alternate 8th Deadly Sin. Did you ever love a dog?
Anyway, when I click on one of your photos and the pop-up — which, as I have my browser so configured, appears instead as a new tab — re-sizes my entire browser, I want to take all your Bibles and feed them to goats. Maybe there are user-friendly alternatives to resizing pop-ups?
Admittedly, this isn't a very important comment. But it's a comment.
Keep rockin' the book-love, Bible-man.
Uhh .. what?
This great looking edition of the KJV Bible doesn't happen to include the Apocrypha, does it? I would purchase it if it did.
Doug S, no Apocrypha.
I'm not sure McClure will be back, but I wonder if he meant this particular post or some other? I'll admit some of Mark's earliest posts could do funny things with both text and graphic sizing but lately the site seems very well behaved indeed. In fact, the enlarging of these blue Longprimer graphics on pop-up is a very nice improvement–the site just keeps getting better. Thanks Mark!
McClure's BACK! I'm always trollin' 'round here, looking for the latest review on skinbound copies of the Word. As to PopupGate, I'm talkin' 'bout this post in particular, but others, too.
That pop-ups are let-downs is one thing, but whatever. Some folks, inexplicably so in this age of the modal dialog, still think pop-ups are bebiddlyboobopalicious. I don't despise pop-ups, per se, EXCEPT when they insist on resizing the window, which blows hot, milksour chunks when one's got the browser to open pop-ups as new tabs, because the entire browser is resized.
Of course, other internauts have pop-ups disabled altogether, because many spam-ads depend on 'em, which means one has to agree to site exceptions. Bah. BAH!
Just use modals. Why not? They're better for users, don't compete with pop-up or ad blockers, allow the user to riffle through the images in the post, and don't futz with browser settings in any way. Bloggers who use modal dialogs have lower blood pressure, more friends, they eat better food, and their kids love them more. Modals put the 'winky' in 'winky dinky doo'.
I wish I wasn't a student, and had some disposable income. I. Want. That. Badly. 🙁
O.K. I have to ask, Mark – when WILL we see the Longprimer bound in Allan's unique crimson Highland goatskin?
Hey Derek Jones, how many Bible do you own? Is not just one good KJV good enough? Do you work overtime to buy all of the Bibles you buy? I am of the school to buy One good leather bound KJV, and then, here is a thought, use that one! Are you being a steward with God's money, or is your love for the leather and if the Bible is collectible or not? Come on man give more in tithe or to a missionary, I know one that gets $25 dollars a month from a church…….Be a better steward, hos many Bible do you need?
very nice! I have a vintage Scofield reference Bible in hand grained Morocco that looks similar to this Bible.
This is the 1st top tier Bible I've ever owned, it's worth all the money I paid, and more. I noticed a huge difference in how much I enjoyed reading this Bible for longer sittings, whereas before my eyes got tired because of gutter or small font issues. For sure a keeper, and best suited for private study times. I'm excited to pick up a wide-margin edition of the KJV to mark up and devote more in-depth studying and carrying around to. Thank you so much for your noble efforts to bring us the most high quality Bible reviews ever.
This looks like a real beaut.
Given that this Atlantic Blue version is a special 400th anniversary version, do they happen to include the "From the Translators" preface, or any other particular anniversary features?
Thanks for all the information you provide your readers… it is an invaluable service.
Todd, "From the Translators" is not included. There is nothing apart from the label on the box that indicates that this is a special 400th anniversary edition.
Nevertheless, I'm now looking forward to receiving one as a very generous gift from a friend, and will no doubt consider the lack of that introductory letter only a minor fault in what I'm sure will become my 'go to' Bible…
I still can't believe it, but I have one of these bibles on order from Allan's at the moment- I can't wait to receive it. I'm sure I have read somewhere that it has a 'family records section' – can anyone confirm/deny this?
Sarah, it does have a family records section. There are spots for husband, wife,children, marriages, grandchildren, and deaths. There are 7 pages for recording info. It doesn't have a family tree though. You're going to love this bible. I am amazing by the paper and printing everytime I open it.
Oh thank you for your reply John! I don't mind about the family tree (I don't have much on my side anyway and always ends up looking very empty!) I am excited beyond belief to be getting one of these bibles.. I plan to have it forever and pass on to my children one day [in 60 years- that's if I dont wear it out!]
The new batch of KJV Long Primers (Blue) apparently arrived in Glasgow (UK) this morning; I spoke with Nicholas earlier and placed my order. I am hoping to receive it tomorrow.
I would like to thank Mark and everybody else who have, through their blog comments, helped me decide on this purchase. This has been a very useful resource.
Many thanks.
Is it true that only 400 copies exist? Does the new batch increase the quantity produced?
I enjoy the quality of my copy and it is good to see they are once again available.
Many thanks.

The Allan's website still says that they don't have stock..Have you received yours yet??
I have emailed Allan's but haven't heard back yet. I am very impatient to finally get my hands on my order! 🙁
Sarah – apologises for my late reply. I have now had my Blue Long Prima for some time and really enjoy it. I checked Allan's web site prior to this post and they are currently in stock. Did you get yours?
George Y – if I remember correctly Allans are only producing 400 of this Blue Long Prima. The last batch to arrive at Allan's I believe was the final 150 that are being produced.
I finally got my paws on one of these (thank you, firm at which I'm employed, for all the extra work hours, allowing for some OT pay). It is a beaut…even my wife, who is used to my Bible obsession, commented that it was very pretty. For her, that's saying something.
Everyone's covered all the superlatives quite nicely, so I'll skip that. Suffice it to say I'm very happy with it.
I just got this in the mail for evangelicalbible.com and WOW!! This is my first Allan Bible ever!! I wish I had never spent money on any other Bible in life!! It is SO beautiful! I'm eying a goatskin Brevier next! These are truly the best Bibles on the planet!
Sounds like both R.L Allan's are sold out as are Evangelicalbible.com. Looks like that's all 400….
Any chance if we riot, Allan will do another run? A six month sellout is unheard of for high end bibles.
They must have done another run because I just received this Bible, but with Highland goatskin rather than calfskin. I have to confess that at first I was really put off by the old fashioned font and page design; I've become so used to modern fonts and paragraph layouts. I persevered, however, and in truth this longprimer is very easy to read and I'm really growing to love it, correction, I do love it. I'm currently analysing why I had a knee-jerk reaction to the archaic look of the text. I'm wondering if it's rooted in my previously long association with the kind of churches who eschew anything between about 100AD and 1980!
This Bible is so fantastic it's like handling a sculpture every time you pick it up! I can't recommend it highly enough.
Where do I call to order one of those Bibles. Does anyone know?
For the moment, they are awaiting a rebind at the end of January. You can order them from evangelicalbible.com or direct from RL Allan at bibles bibles-direct.com once another batch is available.

Centerline said a lot of what I would of and all the guys gave you some good advice. It can seem overwhelming. When I worked on my bonny and a mustang for someone else, I was laid off from work at the time, but even still, it was very time consuming and a lot of work to get done. There are always commitments that take you away from getting work done. I pretty much work a panel or two at a time. I like to get all the bodywork on the outside done and primed and blocked and to the point of just needing a final sand before paint, then I work on prepping the jambs, and try to shoot all the parts off together if possible, but I don't really see a problem if you do only one at a time. But if there is any amount of work that has to be done inside doors or jambs, then I do that as I am working my way around the car. To do a good job, you will probably need to remove those parts to prep and paint. I like to remove the door hinges and parts like that, and sandblast them and epoxy seal and paint. Much easier to do that then trying to sand some parts. It really isn't all that much work to scuff up the epoxy primer. Much easier then if parts sitting in baremetal start rusting, and will give you the opportunity to concentrate on one area at a time and perfect it before moving on. Most basecoats have a fairly long time window. So a lot of times I will get the car all in basecoat and covered. Since I usually wetsand the base with around 1000-1500 to smooth a little an denib I'll do that after its set an hour or so, or the next day. Then I only have to spray on a coat or two of base and a few coats of clear that day. Just set a weekend aside when you get to the point of paint, or take a vacation day and make it a longer weekend so you can take your time getting it in paint. Things normally go better if you take your time and don't rush the painting and allow enough flash time. I was rushing to get a hood painted after work and had nothing but problems. When I walked away for a day, and came back and took my time, things worked out. Would have ended up being done a lot quicker if I would have not rushed the first time.

This charm has been custom designed by me. Hand crafted in fine silver with 22k gold accents, includes my signature and logo on the back.
Includes an 18" Sterling Chain. You can choose a longer Sterling chain in the "options" menu at checkout or Stainless Steel Chain.
Stainless gives a little more rustic and organic feel in the chains and is a great option. I like to layer necklaces with both sterling and steel using stainless for longer layers. It has a bit of a matte finish and is somewhat darker than sterling. (See my example of layering pic).

Thanks to community donations, Moke's veterinarian bill was paid in full and you see him above, after his injury in the best hands ever, his mom.

Discussion in 'Great Skate Debate' started by iggie, Sep 19, 2012.
In fact I buy almonds at Trader Joe's in individually wrapped packages.
It's probably way more than 1200 calories. I'd estimate 1800, depending on the portion of chicken and fish. Plus, she is eating all the vegetables she wants, so if she's hungry, she can snack on some. She is also very short, so she wouldn't need more calories to sustain herself, even with an active day.
Whole grains aren't that necessary for a balanced diet, especially since she is supplementing processed carbs with fruit. Calcium can be fortified in other areas, or she could take supplements.
I think it's a really disciplined approach, but again, I don't think it's out of the ordinary.
I read in People recently about Aly Raisman's diet - she ate similar to Sasha, and only had yogurt for dinner!!
Was this the diet she had at the 2008 Nationals? Girl was defined, 14-16% body fat? She looked very good. Wonder what happened to her though, she messed up her signature spiral and looked resigned/unsurprised by it.
For whatever reason, she doesn't follow the same diet any more. She looks more ~20% in the yoga video.
For me, the two go hand in hand. Excerzising makes the pleasures less guilty, but no less enjoyable.
Sasha... very pretty girl.
Defenitely not. Plus, I'm not sure girls are having much fruit at camps - I don't really check out every video that comes up, but I only ever spotted water melons.
I saw grown male skaters going by having nutrition bars for lunch. And in controlled environments, not trying to starve themselves or crush dieting, but closely advised by those who were the professionals there.
Good grief: the girl is producing muscles out of thin air. She should be studied.
I didn't mean to describe in what way exercizing might affect guilty pleasures. I meant to say that if someone had to chose between cholate and exercizing, then the one picking exercizing is probably going to feel better: it's very powerful against feeling blue, more so than cholate.
Cohen was definitely never crushed or abused by coaches, family or clubs. She did what she liked. She embraced the spotlight and loved it. Exercizing makes people both happy and healthy. I'm having a hard time picturing her depressed by the diet. I'm also thinking that if her diet was getting her depressed, she would have talked about it in a different tune, maybe even hinting.
Because I like numbers so much (rounding up):
Three egg white omelette = 100 calories
Apple = 100 calories
4 almonds = 50 calories
Grilled chicken breast (boneless, skinless) = 300 calories
Salad greens w/balsamic vinegar = 50 calories
Grapefruit = 50 calories
Grilled salmon (150g, half fillet) = 300 calories
Total before misc. veggies = 950 calories
Unless she was filling up on buttered corn on the cob all day, I bet she was eating closer to 1200 calories.
It is nice to learn what actually worked for her. Seems like we only hear about Johnny's coffee fasts, the unnamed SOI skater that ate just an apple a day, or Roz's yo-yo dieting. This sets a much better example for young skaters.
My bold. You mean Alexei? He didn't eat like that while he was in SOI.
Very enjoyable interview. Sasha appears to be very happy in her life. Good for her.
The original source didn't name names. (Was it one of Scott's books? Hrm, I don't remember off the top of my head.)
Sasha seems very happy and pleased with where she is right now. I don't know many people who can say that. She is VERY well spoken. I have to say, she seems so likable and friendly here, a far cry from her competitive days! she was always so cocky and diva-like before! (I'm not saying that's a bad thing) Her new life does her well. Although she could still pass as a teenager!
I think Sasha is very disciplined in her diet as most skaters are. I would think you could get away with a few carbs if you exercised all day like she does, but I guess not. I loved the half an apple part, sheesh, don't eat a whole apple now!
I think Sasha look better with longer hair, but still, she looks great, she has always been very pretty.
My heart still goes out to her, 2006 Olympics and then worlds was rough. But she pulled through and is in a good place now.
Sasha at 2008 Nats? Did you mean 2010? She looked too thin to me in 2010.
Sasha looks very healthy now. I like her look these days.
Sasha was a waif in 2010. It was almost hard to look at, it didn't look healthy.
1200 calories a day is a weight loss plan for a non-athletic young women. Sure, some go even lower than that but it really can't be sustained over the long term. Sure, young people can get away with seemingly starving (I was no stranger to that myself as a young woman), but there has to be a cost in energy and stamina for an athlete to do it over the long term.
How many calories a day does a competitive athlete burn? I burn about 400 calories an hour without working very hard on the elliptical machine at the gym. So an athlete doing four-five hours of on-and-off ice training would have to burn a lot more than that. I know the six hours a day is said to be the standard, but I'd guess that when breaks to talk with the coach or whatever are counted in, a competitive athlete probably puts in four solid hours of exercise a day.
Yes, I am still at a loss as to how this can be considered a healthy long-term diet for any active person, let alone an elite athlete. People do need more than vegetables and lean protein for nourishment. Some things should be eaten in moderation, or not at all, and I guess compared to nothing but coffee and apples it's good, but that's not saying much.
When I was in my teens and early twenties, I didn't exercise much (if at all) and ate loads of junk and carbs, and I was still very thin. While that's not true for everyone, as a generalization I'd say that it's easier to stay thin at a young age than it is later in life - so I don't even understand why it's necessary to go to the extremes some skaters do. Without naming names, there are people who look scary thin to me. Just considering how many hours they have to put into training, surely they can get away with a more balanced, healthy diet? I'm not talking about carb loading like they're doing a marathon or riding in the TdF, but something more balanced than what's been described in this thread.
My guess that's not how Sasha eats these days, and I must say again that she looks fantastic. It's great that she has found a good direction for herself.
She never ages, does she ?
those Yoga is helping her abs looking a bit ripped

Serafica strokes to state
By Gerardo Bolong
Eunica Serafica of Foster High School stayed in control at the West Central District Class 2A girls tennis tournament held at the Kitsap Athletic and Tennis Center in Bremerton on May 23-24.
Serafica concluded her journey to the state tournament to be held at the Nordstrom Center on the University of Washington campus beginning on May 30 by outlasting Melina Johnson of Olympic in three torrid sets of 6-3, 3-6, 6-1, to win the district's No. 3 seed to the state tournament.
On her way to the state spot, the Foster senior began by defeating Lauren Baker of Sumner, 6-1, 6-0. Serafica followed the victory by defeating Anne Marie Herbert of Olympic, 6-1, 6-3.
Eventual tournament champion Leizel Villanueva of Lindbergh beat the Bulldog ace, 6-33, 6-0, in the winners bracket semis to send Serafica into the consolation round where she then split the first two sets before nailing down the triumph against Johnson.
Villanueva powered past Kimberly Hoang of Renton in the first-second place match. Herbert finished fourth while Johnson became the No. 5 seed.
Evergreen representatives Cecelia Vu and Hao Trieu continued to draw attention with a fourth seed to state achievement. The Bulldog tandem drew a first round bye before fighting valiantly in a toe to toe 6-4, 4-6, 10-8 loss to eventual district champions Chelsea Rosebrook and Sarah Hamal of Kingston. Recovering from the heartbreaking loss, Vu and Trieu met Cressa Terrado and Janice Roman of Tyee.
The Totems were dispatched to the consolation round following a first round, 4-6, 6-1, 10-5, loss to Sarah Allen and Rachel Maki of Chimacum/Port Townsend. Trying to keep state hopes alive, the fellow Seamount League teams battled in a loser-out match with Vu and Trieu emerging with a 6-1, 6-0, triumph. Melanie Guan and Karen Chan of Sequim then fell to the Wolverine team in two sets to seal the state deal for fourth-seed Vu and Trieu.

BRPD: Driver killed in wreck was speeding, using phone
BATON ROUGE - Police said they believe a driver killed in a wreck Tuesday morning in Baton Rouge was going too fast, using their cell phone, and wasn't wearing a seat belt.
Sgt. Don Coppola said Johnny Kemp, 29, of Greenwell Springs died in the single-vehicle wreck around 8:20 a.m.
Coppola said Kemp was headed east in the 13700 block of South Choctaw Drive at "a high rate of speed," and wrecked as he approached the intersection with North Flannery. He said Kemp missed a right hand curve and drove into a parking lot on the corner of the intersection, sliding sideways due to his speed before hitting a ditch.
Investigators said Kemp was partially ejected from the vehicle, and died at the scene.
Coppola said Kemp wasn't wearing a seat belt, and investigators believe he was using a cell phone at the time of the wreck.
Police said the investigation was ongoing.

Study: Twitter might help people lose weight
Twitter might actually help people lose weight. A recent study shows that dieters who use Twitter as part of a mobile weight-loss program are more likely to shed pounds than those who don't use social media. …
The study followed 96 overweight and obese men and women who participated in a weight-loss program using a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet. Half of the group received biweekly podcasts about nutrition, exercise and goal setting, while the other half, in addition to receiving the podcasts, downloaded a diet-monitoring app and a Twitter app to their mobile devices.
While both groups lost weight over the six-month study, those in the second group, who were actively posting to Twitter and getting feedback from a weight-loss counselor and fellow participants, dropped even more weight. In fact, researchers found that every 10 posts to Twitter corresponded to a 0.5 percent weight loss.

SOM networking event connects alumni to school and their peers
April 16, 2013Tweet
As a young attorney, Terry Bienstock '75 lucked into having Ted Williams as a client, and was star-struck at the prospect of working with the legendary baseball player. Unsure if asking for an autograph was a good move, he consulted a senior partner at his law firm, which led to a teaching moment that stayed with him through his career.
Bienstock shared that story and others with fellow alumni on April 4, when he was the featured speaker at the School of Management's annual networking event at the New York Athletic Club in Manhattan. Bienstock is CEO of the Miami-based software firm World Extend Holdings, LLC. He was previously executive vice president and general counsel for cable giant Comcast. He told the group of nearly 150 alumni that the senior partner talked him out of asking for the autograph.
"There has to be a distance between a professional and a client," Bienstock said. "Once you break that distance by asking for an autograph, you can never go back."
Bienstock said he was later surprised to see a colleague with a case full of baseballs bearing Williams' signature. The autograph-seeking lawyer, not wanting to be discouraged, didn't seek the advice of an elder professional as Bienstock did.
"[I also learned] never ask a question you don't want to know the answer to. And as a trial lawyer, it was an important lesson," Bienstock said.
In his remarks, University President Harvey Stenger said the School of Management is in high demand and alumni should feel very proud as a result.
"Binghamton University is an extraordinarily competitive place these days," Stenger said. "For our undergraduate class, we have more than 11 applications for every position. And, it's even more competitive for the School of Management. Applications were up 15 percent this year. We had 4,900 applicants for about 400 positions."
"Because of the support of our alumni, we are able to offer a high-quality education to our students and be a premier business school," said Upinder Dhillon, School of Management Dean and Koffman Scholar.
Gary Kibel '90, MBA '92, a partner at the New York law firm Davis & Gilbert, LLP and member of the Alumni Association Board of Directors, encouraged alumni to be involved with the University as volunteers.
"I hope to see everyone here at future alumni events. Making connections is what we're all about – connecting alumni to the University and to each other," Kibel said.
The event was sponsored by Robert Eicher '81, the School of Management and the Binghamton University Alumni Association.

Mishap at Grand River
Here's another story which was passed down by that colorful old cowboy of Hayden, Charlie Temple. Charlie came into this country early--when it was all open range. The typical full-fledged cowboy of those days was apt to be familiar with ranges and cowtrails from Vernal to Wolcott and from Rawlins to Rifle. Such was the case with Charlie; so his stories related to people and places all over Routt County--which at that time covered a big part of that 20,000 square mile area.

Team Evaluation Metrics
|Search This Category
|View Glossary
|There are 28 entries in the glossary.
|Pages: 1
|Assist Ratio
Author: John Hollinger
Assist Ratio is the percentage of a teams possessions that ends in an assist.
Assist Ratio Formula=(Assists)*100)/ [(Field Goal Attempts)+(Free Throw Attempts*0.44)+(Assists)+(Turnovers)]
|Balanced Scoring
The Herfindahl Index (HHI) can be used to measure scoring balances for NBA teams.
HHI calculation for each team: (1) divide each player's points scored by the total number of points scored by the team, (2) square that result for each player, (3) sum those squares.
|Correlated Gaussian Winning Percentage
The method that relates winning percentage to points scored, points allowed, the standard deviations of points scored and allowed, and the correlation between points scored and allowed.
Correlated Gaussian Winning Percentage Formula=NORM{(Points Scored-Points Allowed)/[Standart Deviation(Points Scored-Points Allowed)]}
|Defensive Efficiency
The number of points a team allows per 100 opposing team possessions.
Defensive Efficiency Fomula=100*(Points Allowed/Possessions)
|Defensive Rebounding Percentage
The metric of a team's ability to get defensive rebounds.
Defensive Rebounding Percentage Formula=(Team Defensive Rebounds)/[(Team Defensive Rebounds)+Opponent's Offensive Rebounds)]
|Effective Age
A metric that indicates the average age of the team, weighted by the playing time of players on the roster.
|Effective Field Goal Percentage
The metric which combines 2-point shots with 3-point shots.
Effective Field Goal Percentage Formula=[(Field Goals Made) + 0.5*(3P Field Goals Made)]/(Field Goal Attempts)
|Efficiency Differential
The numerical gap between a team's offensive efficiency and defensive efficiency. The differential represents what each team did for the entire season and a teams efficiency differential is a better predictor of future success.
Efficiency Differential Formula=(Offensive Efficiency)-(Defensive Efficiency)
Comments: Although efficiency differential does indicate the champion more often than just won-loss records, it's not perfect.
|Four Factors
Author: Dean Oliver
Four factors are box score derived metrics that correlate most closely with winning basketball games. These factors also identify a teams strategic strengths and weaknesses. Four factors can be applied to both a team's offense and defense, hence it gives us eight factors.
Effective Field Goal Percentage=(Field Goals Made) + 0.5*3P Field Goals Made))/(Field Goal Attempts)
Turnover Rate=Turnovers/(Field Goal Attempts + 0.44*Free Throw Attempts + Turnovers)
Offensive Rebounding Percentage = (Offensive Rebounds)/[(Offensive Rebounds)+(Opponent's Defensive Rebounds)]
Free Throw Rate=(Free Throws Made)/(Field Goals Attempted) or Free Throws Attempted/Field Goals Attempted
Comments: While these are the four essential factors that decide winning and losing in the NBA, the factors do not carry equal weight.
1. Shooting (40%)
2. Turnovers (25%)
3. Rebounding (20%)
4. Free Throws (15%)
The number in parentheses is the approximate weight of each factor. Shooting is the most important factor, followed by turnovers, rebounding, and free throws.
Each statistic measures a separate skill theres no reason that a team cant shoot well, commit few turnovers, rebound a high percentage of its misses and make frequent trips to the free throw line. At the same time, a team can compensate for poor performance in one area by outstanding performance in another hitting the offensive boards on a poor shooting night, for example.
|Free Throw Conversion
The ability to get to the free throw line, and the ability to make free throws. Two metrics are used the measure free throw conversion.
(Free Throws Attempted)/(Field Goal Attempts) explains how often a team shoots free throws
When two teams meet we can calculate the expected winning percentages using the Log5 formula.
WINNING PERCENTAGE OF TEAM A against TEAM B = W%(A)*(1 - W%(B))/(W%(A)*(1 - W%(B)) + (1 - W%(A))*W%(B))
|Measuring Transition Defense
Dividing opponent fast break points by opponent steals might give us an idea of how teams execute "transition defense".
Transition Defense Metric=(Opponent Fast Break Points)/(Opponent Steals)
|Measuring Transition Offense
Dividing fast break points by steals might give us an idea of how teams execute "transition offense".
Transition Offense Metric=(Fast Break Points)/(Steals)
|Offensive Efficiency
The number of points a team scores per 100 possessions.
Offensive Efficiency Formula=100*(Points Scored)/(Possessions)
|Offensive Rebounding Percentage
The metric of a team's ability to get offensive rebounds.
Offensive Rebounding Percentage Formula=(Offensive Rebounds)/[(Offensive Rebounds)+(Opponent's Defensive Rebounds)]
The total number of possessions a team uses in a game.
Pace Formula=[240/(Team Minutes)]*(Possessionteam+Possessionopponent)/2
|Play Percent
The metric that indicates the percentage of the time a team will score if not sent to the free throw line. Scoring possessions minus scoring possessions on which no field goal was made (only free throws), divided by possessions minus scoring possessions on which no field goal was made.
Play Percent Formula= Field Goals Made/(Field Goals Attempted-Offensive Rebounds+Turnovers)
|Point Differential
The numerical gap between points scored and points allowed. Wins in close games tend not to reflect a team's true skill. Teams that start the season with a better record than their point differential tend to slow down and vice versa. Point differential is also a better predictor of future performance than win-loss record.
Point Differential Formula=(Points Scored)-(Points Allowed)
|Points Off Turnovers
When a team commits a turnover, the scoring crew records the turnover. On the following opponent possession, if the opponent scores, the scoring system credits that opponent with a "point off a turnover.
Comments: Points off turnovers" is a misleading statistic. "Turnovers per possessions" is a better metric to measure the cost of a turnover
Arguably the most important discovery in statistical analytics in basketball.
A possession ends
(1) by making a field goal attempt;
(2) by missing a shot and not getting the offensive rebound;
(3) by turning the ball over;
(4) by going to the line for two or three shots and either making the last shot or not getting the rebound of a missed last shot.
Two teams in any given game are essentially limited to the same number of possessions.
Basic Possession Formula=0.96*[(Field Goal Attempts)+(Turnovers)+0.44*(Free Throw Attempts)-(Offensive Rebounds)]
More Specific Possession Formula=0.5 * ((Field Goal Attempts + 0.4 * Free Throw Attempts - 1.07 * (Offensive Rebounds / (Offensive Rebounds + Opponent Defensive Rebounds)) * (Field Goal Attempts - FG) + Turnovers) + (Opponent Field Goal Attempts + 0.4 * Opponent Free Throw Attempts - 1.07 * (Opponent Offensive Rebounds / (Opponent Offensive Rebounds + Defensive Rebounds)) * (Opponent Field Goal Attempts - Opponent FG) + Opponent Turnovers)).
Comments: The .44 multiplier is because not all free throws take up a possession. Technical foul shots and "hoop and the harm"s do not, while there are more than two free throws on one possession with a three-shot foul. Research has determined that about 44% of all free throws take up possessions. The .96 multiplier accounts for team offensive rebounds in situations where a missed shot is tipped out of bounds by a defensive player, continuing the possession without an offensive rebound being credited.
|Power Rankings
A subjective evaluation tool for the NBA teams which rates the entire league from top to bottom. NBA power rankings are based mostly on how good teams really are, with recent performances taken into partial consideration. The NBA.com does the power rankings job by using the offensive and defensive efficiencies.
Find out the NBA Teams' power rankings in graphics form which helps readers get a better understanding about exactly where the teams currently stand at.
|Projected Winning Percentage
A formula that simply uses a team's net overall point differential (PD=points differential) rather than points scored and point allowed.
Each point of differential translates to 2.7 wins over the course of the season.
Projected Win%=[(Points Differential)*2.7)+41]/82
|Pythagorean Winning Percentage
The method that gives an expected winning percentage using the ratio of a team's wins and losses is related to the number of points scored and allowed.
Expected Winning Percentage Formula=(Points Scored)16.5/[Points Scored)16.5 + (Points Allowed)16.5)]
|Relative Percentage Index (RPI)
The Relative Percentage Index (RPI) is widely used to produce power ratings. Unlike most power rating systems, the RPI does not consider margin of victory or how well a team has played. It only considers whether a team won or lost. In fact, the RPI is based entirely on winning percentage.
|Simple Rating System (SRS)
Simple Rating System (SRS); a team rating that takes into account average point differential and strength of schedule.
The rating is denominated in points above/below average, where zero is average. More information about calcution of SRS.
|Strength Of Schedule (SOS)
Export NBA schedules to Excel including rest days to build your own strength of schedule model!
Strength Of Schedule (SOS) represents a team's average schedule difficulty faced by each team in the games that it's played so far or for all season. The schedule difficulty of a given game takes into account the rating of the opponent and the location of the game.
Strength of schedule in the NBA has not been considered nearly as important as in the NFL or as in the NCAA basketball since the NBA teams play each other at least twice. Much of the schedule differences between teams come down to road trips, back-to-backs, afternoon games for example.
Strength of schedule can be calculated in many ways and all methods asssign a greater SOS number to a more difficult schedule.
Methods for Calculating Strength Of Schedule
SOS can be calculated by the help of Relative Percentage Index which incorporates W/L records of opponents and opponents' opponents. This method is being used by ESPN. John Hollinger explains the calculation of SOS.
Simple Rating System (SRS) also incorporates strength of the schedule by employing margin of victory (MOV) and the results can be found at basketball-reference.com
Another way used by Kenneth Massey is explained here.
Jeff Sagarin is also in charge of SOS ratings.
|Turnover Ratio
Author: John Hollinger
Turnover Ratio is the percentage of a teams possessions that end in a turnover.
Turnover Ratio Formula=(Assists)*100)/ [(Field Goal Attempts)+(Free Throw Attempts*0.44)+(Assists)+(Turnovers)]
|Value of Ball Possession
Author: Bob Bellotti
Value of Ball Possession (VBP) is the leagues average points per possession. If the NBA teams scored an average of 95.0 points per 100 possessions, that makes the VBP .95.

Years of coffee and red wine can do a number on once-pearly whites. That's where this effective whitening toothpaste comes in. The scientifically advanced formula uses a proprietary mineral-based agent to lift away surface stains without causing sensitivity. It's safe for all types of teeth, even false ones and veneers.
After receiving a sample,I purchased the full size. I do believe it is working to whiten my teeth. I was glad to learn,even from my dentist, that it also has cavity protection. I was concerned about sensitivity but it is not an issue. A little pricey, but less expensive than strips. Will purchase again.4
I really like the fact that this toothpaste does what it says it is going to do. I notice a big difference in the white of my smile. I LOVE the fact that it has a unique orange/tangy flavor. I have never tried any other type of toothpaste other than mint. It took me a while to get use to the flavor, but I like it. I wish the toothpaste would foam up more in the mouth when brushing,but maybe that is a good thing??? I would definitely pick this up for my sisters and my mom, who are obsessed with how white their smiles are.4
I really enjoy how clean my teeth feel after I use this toothpaste. I have the cinnamon flavor (which I would never pick up on my own) and it actually helps my teeth feel cleaner! I'm looking forward to seeing if I notice any whitening effects.4

text: My dad and I have an acre or two that we have available to plant. Should I plant alfalfa or clover? If we plant alfalfa we will cut it and bale it, after the blooms of course. If we plant clover, it will become pasture. What plant has a longer honey flow/ which is more plentiful in honey production? We have about 20 steer calves at a time, would they mow down the clover before it even went to bloom? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Lasse Hallstrom directs this beautifully photographed, critically acclaimed drama about small-town life and the contraints that a young man's family responsibilities put on his independence. The screenplay is written by Peter Hedges who also wrote the novel of the same name. Bizarre, whimsical, and touching scenes mark WHAT'S EATING GILBERT GRAPE. Johnny Depp is Gilbert, the eldest brother in a large family of a very large (morbidly obese, actually) mother (Darlene Cates) who hasn't left the house since her husband committed suicide years before. Leonardo DiCaprio, who received an Academy Award nomination for his role, is Arnie, Gilbert's retarded teenage brother who needs constant supervision (he's often found scaling the town's water tower). Caring, passive Gilbert is burdened beyond reason, living a dead-end life in a dying small town, stacking shelves at a grocery store whose business is being taken over by the new supermarket. Gilbert's best friends (Crispin Glover and John C. Reilly) see their futures in the form of undertaker and Burger Barn owner, and Gilbert's other social life is taken up with a random affair with a frustrated and reckless housewife (Mary Steenburgen). Everyone needs the constantly patient Gilbert, whose future seems equally grim until well-travelled, straightforward Becky (Juliette Lewis) and her nonconformist grandmother (Penelope Branning) come to town. Their camper van is in need of repair, so Becky stays long enough to actually have an effect on Gilbert, making his new life spiral in wild ways, awakening him to the fact that he is not living his own life. Based on the novel by Peter Hedges (who also wrote the screenplay), WHAT'S EATING GILBERT GRAPE is quirky, irresistible, and endearingly eccentric without being a freak show.

Three Mile Bay Wildlife Management Area (WMA) The primary purposes of the Three Mile Bay WMA is for wildlife management, wildlife habitat management, and wildlife-dependent recreation. This WMA is 3966 acres and is adjacent to Three Mile Bay on Oneida Lake's north shore. It is situated in southern Oswego County, approximately six miles east of the village of Central Square and two miles from NY Route 49. The WMA is generally low and flat with several ridges or island extending across the interior. Elevations vary from 369 to 439 feet with most of the area not exceeding 30 feet above Oneida Lake. The muck-peat and acid sand soils have a strong influence on the vegetation. The majority of the area is swamp hardwood with soft maple (silver, red) predominating; upland portions contain mixed hardwoods such as soft maple, white pine, white cedar, ashes, oaks and hickories. Abandoned farm lands on the swamp border have been encroached upon completely by spirea, high bush cranberry, dogwood, aspen, pin-cherry, birch and other pioneer species.
Featured Activities
Hunting and Trapping
Three Mile Bay WMA is located in Wildlife Management Unit 7F. White-tailed deer, waterfowl and variety of small game species offer ample hunting opportunities (View hunting seasons and trapping seasons).
Three Mile Bay WMA is open to fishing, please visit DEC's website for more information about fishing. A fishing access site on Phillips Point provides fisherman access to Oneida Lake.
Wildlife Viewing
Resident wildlife (especially deer and song birds) and fall migrations of waterfowl offer the bird watcher and/or photographer unlimited opportunities for pursing their hobbies. Waterfowl are the primary wildlife species seen on the WMA. Some waterfowl breed in the area, while migrants utilize Oneida Lake and the Three Mile Bay for resting and feeding during the spring and fall. Use the Wildlife Management Area Mammal Checklist (PDF 453 KB) and the Wildlife Management Area Bird Checklist (PDF 240 KB) as a wildlife viewing guide.
Exit I-81 at Route 49. Follow Rt. 49 east to Todd Harbor Road. Turn right and parking is on your left. One can also access the WMA by continuing east on t. 49 past Todd Harbor Road and turning right onto Lower Road. Follow Lower Road to West Road and make a sharp right to reach deep into the WMA where there is parking. The 7½ topographic maps covering the area are Cicero and Mallory.

Rules, Regulations & Outdoor Safety
Activity Rules & Regulations:
- Hunting Regulations
- Trapping Regulations
- Fishing Regulations
- Public Use of Wildlife Management Areas Regulations
The following activities are not permitted at Three Mile Bay WMA:
- Using motorized vehicles, including:
- all-terrain vehicles
- snowmobiles
- motorboats

Outdoor Safety Tips:
NOTE: Ticks are active whenever temperatures are above freezing but especially so in the late spring and early fall. Deer ticks can transmit Lyme and several other diseases. More information on deer ticks and Lyme disease can be obtained from the NYS Department of Health (Leaves DEC's Website). Also, practice Leave No Trace (Leaves DEC's website) principles when recreating on state land to enjoy the outdoors responsibly; minimize impact on the natural resources and avoid conflicts.
How We Manage
Like most of the state's Wildlife Management Areas, Three Mile Bay WMA is managed by DEC's Division of Fish and Wildlife for wildlife conservation and wildlife-associated recreation (hunting, trapping, wildlife viewing/photography). Funding to maintain and manage this site is provided by the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration or "Pittman-Robertson" Act, which is acquired through excise taxes on sporting arms, ammunition and archery equipment.
Current objectives for the management area are to provide habitat for the use of a variety of wildlife with the primary emphasis on waterfowl species. Techniques involved include practices such as mowing, prescribed burning, construction of nesting structures, preservation and perpetuation of certain habitats and maintaining a diversity of habitat. Timber stand improvement and harvesting timber are conducted to improve the forestry resource and wildlife values.
A special agreement permits the New York State Department of Health to operate a field laboratory for the purpose of conducting its encephalitis investigations.
The WMA is considered a wetland, but in the 1920s some of the area was cleared and muck farming was begun. These lands were fared up until the 1930s when they were abandoned. These muck field are now covered with water due to beaver activities. Initial acreage for Three Mile Bay WMA was acquired in the 1950s from using Pittman Robertson Funds, with additional acreage acquired under the 1962 Recreational Bond Act. The purpose for the original acquisition was for the ultimate development of waterfowl habitat.

Reviews of this property
Das Zimmer war wirklich sauber und für 2 Personen vollkommen ausreichend. Der Gastgeber war freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Lage ist sehr gut. Mit der u-Bahn fährt man 15 Minuten zum Herzen von New York. Wir können das wirklich empfehlen da das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis wirklich stimmt.
The room was really clean and for 2 people perfectly adequate. The host was friendly and courteous. The location is very good. With the subway you drive 15 minutes to the heart of New York. We can really recommend as the price-performance ratio is really true.
Jason upgraded us to the bottom floor appartment with 5 beds and a terrace outside, without changing the fee. Perfect! He was very helpful. I even was allowed to specify delivery of an Amazon parcel to his working address, so I could take it home in my suitcase thus avoiding high shipping costs to NL.
The airco's are working 100%, the fridge is ok, all kitchen utensils were there. Large TV with interesting networks on it. Trip to Manhattan with the M or R metro is ok (40 min) but you have to take notice: some (exoress) trains skip Grand Avenue (that is where you have to get on/off).
I stayed almost two weeks in the Center of Queens near Roosevelt Ave.
The flat was nice and clean.
Jason gave me further information about Queens and my staying there.
He is very kind and trustworthy.
I fell very good and my decision to stay in one of Jasons flat was right!
I would ome there another time.
The connections to Manhattan are really good and quick:
Train 7, different Metros and Bus Q32.
Going with bus Q32 war very comfortable:
The station for this bus is under the bridge, very near to the flat. It passes Queenboro-Bridge, follows the 59th street for a while and turns into 5th Av and runs until Penn-Station. You can use the busses with the Metro-Card.
Another bus, Q53 goes to the other direction: to the Atlantic, Rockaway. It takes about 50 minutes and it is very interessting to see a big part of Queens in this way. From Rockaway it is possible to take bus 34 to Brooklyn, where you can change into the Metro then (close to Brooklyn College). This was a nice journey I did one day to spend some time at the seashore.
In Queens I visited flushing meadows and the House of Luis Armstrong.
It was interessting.
To Manhattan (59th street) is a 15-20 minutes drive uo to the metro you take.
Near the flat there is everything you need for daily life:
shops, bars, doctors, pharmacy ...
Hello and thanks to Jason :-)
The apartment was perfect! Everything was clean and looked even better in real than it did in the photos.
The keyless entry makes entering and leaving the apartment very easy without having to worry about losing a key.
The subway station is pretty much around the corner. The walk takes less than 5 minutes. From there, several trains take you to Manhatten in about 20 minutes. The ride from and to JFK Airport takes about 30 minutes.
Jason was a great host, he was waiting for us as we arrived and helped us carry our suitcases. He even had bottled water waiting for us in the refrigerator.
We will definitely come back. Thank you, Jason!
Das Appartement ist zweckmäßig eingerichtet, Kaffeemaschine, Toaster und Mikrowelle sind vorhanden. U- Bahn, Supermarkt und Einkaufscenter sind ebenfalls schnell zu Fuß zu erreichen. Einige Imbisse sind auch in der Nähe. Jason war sehr nett, hat uns schon vor dem Appartement erwartet. Er hatte für uns jeweils eine Flasche Wasser und hat alles freundlich erklärt. Preis-Leistung hat hier wirklich gepasst, gerne wieder.
Wir hatten eine super Aufenthalt.
Die Wohnung war perfekt für unseren Mew York Trip zu zweit. Es war alles vorhanden (Handtücher, Bettwäsche, Toilettenpapier, eine gut ausgestattete Küche...)
Die Subway ist in 5 Minuten gut zu erreichen und die Gegend eher ruhig.
Die Abwicklung mit dem Vermieter hat wunderbar funktioniert. War alles Problemlos. Gerne wieder!
It was my second time in this flat and I fell like home again.
Jason is very kind and helpfull.
