In the Caribbean, taxi drivers know the best ways to negotiate back roads and the quickest routes to tourist spots. They'll even serve as all-day tour guides if you'd like. On some islands, taxis may be your only choice for getting from the airport to your hotel.
On almost every island, the best way to find a taxi is simply to visit a hotel. In most places they wait for passengers outside the hotels' front doors. If not, the hotel front desk can call a cab for you. Certain island's taxis may charge an additional airport or hotel fare if you depart from those locations.
On many of the islands, taxis look like all the other cars and are only identifiable by their license plates. Taxis may not be well kept up by their owners, and roads are often rough in the Caribbean, so taxi rides may not always be comfortable for long journeys; however, they may be safer and quicker than other forms of transportation. Taxi drivers are generally knowledgeable and helpful. They may know the best places to eat, most beautiful beaches, and other insider tips. If your driver is helpful in this way, or helps with heavy luggage, be sure to tip a little more. Average tips are about $2(USD) for in-town fares, but exact rates vary from island to island.
These additional tips and fare information will ensure a pleasant ride:
Always look for prominently displayed credentials and licensing. Do not hire an unlicensed driver.
In most cases, taxis are not metered, so don't expect to pay by the mile. Fares are often regulated by the governments of each individual island and drivers will often have rate cards.
Rate cards are often available through a country's official Tourism Board if the rates are government-regulated.
Be sure to agree on a rate as well as currency before you get into the car, and don't be afraid to negotiate if the driver is not bound by standard government rates.
Taxi services are generally available 24 hours a day, but some are legally permitted to charge much higher rates at night.
Hail a Caribbean taxi by holding your hand palm down and patting the air.
With these tips in mind, you'll fit right in with the locals when it comes time to hire a ride to get you from one place to the next.

Need help? Advice?

We like simple, clean, modern design in our baby products: after all, a baby has few opinions about aesthetics, while most parents have put some serious time, thought, and money into what their environment looks like. That's one reason why we've always loved Babyhome, who have embraced a "less is more" design philosophy that results in some truly lovely products!
The Babyhome Wave Wooden Rocker continues in the same tradition, with a simple, rounded design that will fit seamlessly into your well-appointed home décor. This baby bouncer sways your child back and forth in a restful front-to-back motion (propelled gently by you), with two recline positions so you can adjust it to suit whether baby wants to play and interact, or whether he wants to snooze.
A three-point harness secures your baby into the fabric nest at the center of the baby bouncer, which has removable, machine-washable fabrics (all 100% cotton and 100% polyester). The rocker itself is a rounded wooden hoop that's open in the middle – it has a really cool and unique look! Because it doesn't use a lot of material, the Babyhome Wave Wooden Rocker doesn't weigh much (only 10 pounds), and it even folds flat so you can pop it into the trunk to use away from home, or stash it in the hallway closet when you're not using it.
You can begin using the Babyhome Wave Wooden Rocker to soothe your baby from birth onwards; it's suitable for use up to 20 pounds or 6 months.

London, July 12 (ANI): British archaeologists have discovered a canal built by the Romans at the ancient maritime port of Portus. The 90-metre-wide canal is one of the biggest ever built by the Romans.
According to the archaeologists, from the universities of Cambridge and Southampton and the British School at Rome, the canal connected Portus, on the coast at the mouth of the Tiber, with the river port of Ostia, two miles away.
The channel at Portus - which lies close to Rome's Fiumicino airport, 20 miles west of the city - would have facilitated the transfer of cargo from huge ocean-going ships to smaller river vessels and taken up the River Tiber to the docks and warehouses of the imperial capital.
Until now, it was believed goods took a more circuitous overland route along a Roman road, the Via Flavia.
"It's absolutely massive. We know of other, contemporary canals which were 20-40 metres wide, and even that was big. But this was so big that there seems to have been an island in the middle of it, and there was a bridge that crossed it. It was unknown until now," The Telegraph quoted, Simon Keay, the director of the three-year dig at Portus, as saying.
The dig, which is being conducted in collaboration with Italian archaeologists, is providing new insights into the extraordinary trading web that the Romans spread across the Mediterranean basin, from Spain to Egypt and Asia Minor.
Prof Keay said: "What the recent work has shown is that there was a particular preference for large scale imports of wheat from North Africa from the late 2nd century AD right through to the 5th and maybe 6th centuries."
The team has also uncovered evidence that trading links with North Africa in particular were far more extensive than previously believed.
British archaeologists believe Portus and Ostia would have been home to a large expatriate population of North African trading families and commercial agents, some of whom had their names inscribed on tomb stones.
Portus was the chief port of ancient Rome for over 500 years and provided a conduit for everything from glass, ceramics, marble and slaves to wild animals caught in Africa and shipped to Rome for spectacles in the Colosseum.
Prof Keay saud: "Portus must be one of the most important archaeological sites in the world. The great thing about Portus is that most of it has been preserved and there is much more to learn about the important role it played in Rome's success." (ANI)

Deeply divided, Britain's Labour fails to challenge May on Brexit
(Repeats story from Tuesday)
* Divisions in Labour mean no challenge for May on Brexit
* Brexit was not on agenda at Liverpool Labour conference
* Fears Conservatives could lurch right with muted opposition
By Elizabeth Piper
LIVERPOOL, England, Sept 27 (Reuters) - With the re-election of Jeremy Corbyn as leader unlikely to heal deep rifts in Britain's Labour, the only significant opposition that Prime Minister Theresa May looks likely to face as she plots Britain's divorce from the EU is from her own party.
Britain's exit from the bloc, or Brexit, did not even make it onto the official agenda of the Labour party's conference in Liverpool, where lawmakers were more concerned with whether Labour will survive in the future.
For May, who campaigned quietly for Britain to stay in the European Union before the June referendum, it means she will be able to drive the talks without much interference from the Labour opposition.
But she may face a stronger challenge from those in her Conservative Party who are pressing for a hard Brexit, or a clean break with the EU and its single market. Continued...

Home › Forums › General Forums › General Lightweight Backpacking Discussion › Sinkyone Wilderness- your favorite approach?
Apr 15, 2013 at 11:34 pm #1301799
So from Shelter Cove I have hiked north up into the Lost Coast well over a dozen times, but I have never hiked south from Shelter Cove. Everyone tells me the Sinkyone Wilderness is amazing!
Obviously I'm missing out, so I'm looking to go in the next couple weeks. I've been doing basic research on the internet, yet have not settled on a route for my first venture into this area.
If any of you have ideas/experience and or just entertaining stories of hiking the Sinkyone Wilderness, I'd love to hear them. Also, comparisons of the various approaches- starting inland (Needle Rock?) or hiking north from Usal Creek instead of south from Shelter Cove. Thank you- Aleks
Here is a tiny video I made from a quick hike up the Lost Coast last month.
http://youtu.be/hWcRjLrjNOsApr 16, 2013 at 5:26 am #1977190
Are you wanting to do an in and out. Or are you looking to do a car shuttle?
Planning on bringing a board this time?
How much time do you have?
I have not been yet.Apr 16, 2013 at 10:25 am #1977290
I have five days for the hike, and will park, go in and come out the same way.
If there is some swell I will bring a board if not just go explore. I've heard a lot about Bear Harbor and plan to check it out.
Everyone says the Sinkyone is beautiful- so I'm planning on not hiking everyday- more slowing down and finding spots I'll enjoy camping out in. Thanks so much for any info.Apr 16, 2013 at 11:20 am #1977309

I remember reading somewhere that the coast just south of Shelter Cove was really dangerous and impassable. But maybe the trail goes around the beaches.Apr 16, 2013 at 2:58 pm #1977402
Tons of info here. Maps and all.Apr 16, 2013 at 3:02 pm #1977404
Justin I have surfed the first several spots South of there and yes they are only passable on lower tides. Ken thanks for the info I will check it out.Apr 16, 2013 at 3:08 pm #1977407
Darn, Ken that is a link that I have already been using.
This is where I'm stuck, hike from an inland direction (Needle Rock?) or making my way down from Shelter Cove. I can pick one but was hoping to hear from those that had tried one or the other just to get a little feedback. If no feedback is out there, I'll report my route and experiences when I get back.
Ken, I'll take some more time looking at that map more closely. Thanks again.Apr 16, 2013 at 5:26 pm #1977441
Call the ranger office and pick their brains.
Sorry I can't be of more help.Apr 16, 2013 at 5:47 pm #1977452
No worries, Ken. Probably going this route-
Will write a summary after the hike.
Here is a pic from The Lost Coast last November, that my buddy Guy took. Weather would change like 15 times in a day on that trip.Apr 16, 2013 at 7:20 pm #1977479

Sinkyone is tough, lots of up and down.
From the far southern end, it's a long hike before the beach access is easy.
Not sure from the northern end.Apr 16, 2013 at 7:28 pm #1977481
"Sinkyone is tough, lots of up and down."
Though one of the best solo nights/mornings I've ever had was getting Bear Harbor to myself.Apr 16, 2013 at 7:37 pm #1977484
Nice Craig, which trail did you go on?Apr 16, 2013 at 7:45 pm #1977488
I started at the Hidden Valley Trailhead, just south of Shelter Cove and went to Bear harbor and back. Then from Shelter Cove (Black Sand Beach) I went north up the beach and back.
Don't underestimate the hills in Sinkyone. For the most part, it is all either up or down.
The surf was FLAT when I was there but I've wanted to go back with a board ever since.Apr 16, 2013 at 8:10 pm #1977506
Rad post Craig and useful- thanks!Apr 16, 2013 at 8:26 pm #1977512
Ken Thompson was a huge help to me for planning up there…Apr 16, 2013 at 8:40 pm #1977518

I brought my boy scout troop three years ago to Sinkyone. We parked at Orchard Camp and hiked down to Wheeler the first day. I took most of the rest of the boys down to Little Jackass Creek the following day. We spent the next night at Wheeler then went home.
We ran into another youth group who started from the north. They were meeting friends heading north in the middle, then continuing south to Usal. They swapped keys at the midpoint which sounds like the best way to see Sinkyone.
The place is remote and feels like Jurassic Park. Really steep-I understand why the highway engineers went inland instead of trying to run Highway 1 through the area.
Have a good time.Apr 16, 2013 at 9:49 pm #1977535
Thanks Joe.Apr 16, 2013 at 11:12 pm #1977551

The trip was pretty a m a z i n g!
I have a lot of work to do before I can sift through some imagery from the hike- but briefly if you are through hiking on the Lost Coast Trail through the Sinkyone like Craig mentioned "There is lots of ups and downs"!
It is an overgrown (jungle like with poison oak and stinging nettles) trail easy to get a broad pack snagged often, and with all the climbs (I set up a base camp and did day hikes north and south) even without a pack I was tired out at the end of everyday. In Summary it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever explored- I've been kind of depressed ever since I got back to the city. More soon- I have some work to catch up on first.May 15, 2013 at 6:38 pm #1986566
Here is a 4 minute video from the adventure.
So again we had an amazing time!
Since my buddy brought a friend that we had not hiked with before- I figured the best approach would be the easiest, and give us a chance to get a feel for what this area holds.
So we started in the middle, we drove the one lane dirt road down to the Needle Rock Visitor Center, and hiked south for about 4 miles, which kinda put us in the middle of the Sinkyone.
We set up camp in an incredibly beautiful spot and each day we would embark on a day hike north or south both along the Lost Coast Trail or hugging the coast (we are good water people) so we would swim around smaller impassable points (small swell action). So we got a great feel for the place and next time I will aim to do a thru hike from the Hidden Valley trail head above Shelter Cove to Usal Beach. For such a hike PACK LIGHT and slim (big packs get snagged a lot on the trail). Be prepared to go on lots of swims in the ocean to cleanse off all the poison oak you have to walk through, which are also good opportunities for tick checks. They are prevalent in the area.

If we could rebalance our economy so that we could pay our way in the world, removing the constraints which are the cause of the lack of sufficient job opportunities in the UK, there is no reason why we should not be able to get back to around 3% unemployment, reducing the true numbers for those out of work over a period of time from nearly five million to perhaps one million.
Holmes keeps on thinking because he knows there is a solution - which he will come up with if he persists long enough. So he examines and analyses a problem from every angle, dissecting it, slicing and dicing it in different ways before putting the pieces together and coming up with an answer that no one else has seen.

The voice
"...keeper of the GATES!'
Richard threw his blankets off of his body and they crumpled at his feet sadly. He looked around the dark room, terror shearing through his mind like sharp shards of glass. Where the hell had that voice come from? His dark room was completely motionless. Richard couldn't make out much just lumps and shadows. He reached over timidly towards his lamp, wondering if something would jump out and grab his arm before he could make it to the safety of the light. This agitated him and he turned the tiny knob on the lamp. It clicked and clicked but no light came on.
Richard felt himself go cold and his stomach heaved. He retracted his arm quickly before the thing in his mind could grab him. He realized that he had removed the bulb from that lamp. He chided himself for being so stupid and then looked over at the door. The light switch was next to it but that was at least a four foot walk. Whatever was in his room could grab him at any time.
He shook his head; there was nothing in the room. He was being silly. He needed to just get up and turn on the light so he could calmly check the room for maybe a mouse or something. But then again there was that voice, so loud and real.
Richard shook his head again. He needed to block that thought out of his head, get up and turn on the light. He slowly brought his feet around to meet the floor and he felt himself jump a little as the bottoms of his feet made contact with the cold hardwood. Putting his weight on them he pushed himself slowly out of bed and now was standing in complete darkness. Nothing moved, he heard nothing, it was just stillness. Richard for a split second wondered if he should calmly make his way over to the light or should he make a mad dash for it.
Again he chided himself on being so ridiculous. Making a mad dash would be agreeing to the fact that there was something in his room which was an unrealistic idea. He slowly made his way to the light switch his feet quietly padding on the hardwood floor. A light shuffling sound came as his flannel pants swept together. Although he believed the idea of something being in his room ridiculous he still stared around his eyes wide in their sockets and that familiar fear was coming back.
Richard could not remember the last time he was scared of the dark, having grown out of the ideal when he realized Santa and the Easter bunny weren't real, it was only natural to realize that the Boogey Man wasn't real either. But now he could almost feel eyes peering at him from every dark corner of the room. His investigative mind wanted to venture towards them to prove their inexistence, but his gut told him to get to the light, the light was good and it would protect him.
As he was reaching the light there was a groan of floor boards off to the other side of his room, close to his bed, and then the springs of his bed depressed with small creaks as though someone or something was putting a lot of pressure on them. Richard dared a look over his shoulder and could no longer see his bed in the dark, he could see nothing, but he heard the springs depress still along the bed as whatever it was, was slowly making its way over the bed. Then floor boards on the other side of the bed groaned with pressure as it made its way off the bed, Richard felt the white heat of fear take over his body he nearly paralyzed before he felt the cool plastic of the light switch and threw it on.
Light flooded the room and as Richard's eyes adjusted he saw a shadow sling across the room from where his bed was and disappear to where he couldn't see. Then there was nothing but brightness.
Richard searched the entire room turning it upside down, always with the light on, until the shining of the morning sun began to play on his window sill. Richard went back to his bed and sat down.
Sweat had accumulated on his forehead and he wiped it away breathing heavily. Despite the sweat it was freezing cold in his room, but he hardly noticed the temperature. He stared around his room at all the dark corners, wondering what could have been hidden there. Had all of it been a hallucination brought on by fear? Richard didn't know the scientific premise behind hallucinations. But he knew he had heard that voice as real as the groaning of his floor boards and the creaking of his bed springs. There had been something in his room.
He felt sleep overtake him, he was exhausted from searching, and he lay back as the sunlight began to fill his room. He knew he'd be safe in the light but the coming night, he'd need something to keep the entity away again. He'd have to buy a night light. Sleep finally swept him away softly as in one dark corner of his room a shadow quivered and then was slowly pushed into nothingness by the brightening sunlight.
The toaster buzzed loudly shaking Richard out of his daze and annoyed he got up and pushed it around until the toast that was caught in it dislodged from the side. It popped all the way up black. Richard finally realized that the air stank of burnt toast, he had forgotten completely about it.
"Richard, what have I continually told you about setting that toast lower, why do you need to set it so high?" his Dad complained, coming down the stairs while putting on his tie.
"Dad it doesn't toast the bread right if I set it below that," Richard explained trying to scrape off the blackened parts, but realizing his efforts were futile he threw it in the trash.
His father eyed him warily.
"That's a big waste of bread Richard, please be more careful next time," he said.
He then looked around.
"Have you
seen my briefcase," he paused to think, "and my keys?"
Richard motioned to the family room.
"I think I saw your keys on the coffee table, you must have dumped them there when you came home yesterday," Richard answered.
His father left the room in search of his items while Richard threw some more bread in the toaster setting it up to full power again.
He looked out the window at the shadows in the yard. The sun was still low in the sky and casting a lot of shadows across the yard. Richard felt his mind wander back to last night. He didn't think telling his father about his experience would help matters much, so he had made a mental note to keep his mouth shut for now and he'd head down to Ned's Hardware, to pick up a nightlight later on after school.
He shuddered at the though of Kristin Chaste, finding him at the hardware store buying such an item. The buxom cheerleader was also one of the most attractive girls in his school and during his fifth period math, he found himself drooling on his desk at her pert body from behind, as she played with her hair and chatted with her friends next to her, making no effort to understand the equations on the board.
With a body like that, thought Richard, she would never need to use her brain for anything more than what dress to wear to social occasions.
And then he thought of her boyfriend, the school badass Derk Anderson finding him buying a nightlight.
Richard heard told that last year Derk had tapped some kid's ass cheeks together after finding out the boy slept with a teddy bear still. Richard couldn't even imagine what cruel and unusually punishment Derk would plan out for him and his nightlight.
Derk never used his brain either, unless it was to crush beer cans or smash some poor weaker kid's face in. Derk liked to headbutt a lot, it was his thing.
The toaster buzzed loudly again and the musk of burnt toast filled the air.
"Richard!" his father yelled from the family room.
School was uneventful. Except for his regularly scheduled drool session during math, Richard didn't find much joy out of the day. He was like a teenager displaced. He could never find a place in the world of teens and the different groups and talents they had. He liked skateboarding but almost always fell on his face, as he had no balance. He liked sports but he couldn't seem to get himself into enough shape to make it onto the A squad for anything. He was into music but couldn't hold a tune or beat to save his life. He liked the idea of writing but his grammatical and spelling skills didn't have much going for them.
The only person that ever seemed to understand him was his lifelong friend Andy. Andy had moved into town with his rich parents, they owned a large computer company. Richard took a liking to Andy instantly as he seemed to be displaced too, the town was made up of mostly factory and construction workers. There wasn't a large amount of rich families in the area, so a rich kid coming into a small town didn't impress a lot of the crowd.
Richard would always remember when they were kids and they would let their imaginations run wild playing dungeons and dragons with sticks around the woods outside the town. He would be the young knight and Andy would be the evil wizard holding the imaginary princess captive. They were good times, and Richard sometimes wished that they could go back to that kind of simplicity. It might have been why he had taken such a liking to his new door now.
Whenever he saw it he got a warm feeling and smiled while in his room, even today as he walked in holding his new night light, he seemed to even forget why he had purchased it almost. Although he still plugged it in. It was a sensor light so if the sensor was covered in darkness the light would turn on.
Andy tested it by shutting all the blinds and closing the door and turning the light off. Instantly the room shone with a healthy glow of light, enough to keep the shadows at bay in the corners of his room for the night.
Andy felt satisfied with the results and went to open his blinds. Only when he was reaching for them something on his desk chair caught his attention. There was a glint of movement. When he looked he saw a small coin, larger than a dollar coin and brassy colored. Richard reached for it.
Suddenly there was a hiss and a sort of growl and something caught a hold of his arm. Richard tugged back hard in panic, but was able to notice it was like a tentacle. It led to below his desk where the dark was ample.
The hissing had stopped and Richard could only hear his own gasps in struggle, as everything fell silent in his room. Richard tugged harder, although he was loosing the battle, whatever the entity was it was stronger than him. He looked below the desk but could only see darkness.
Suddenly Richard had an idea. The curtains were close at hand, he just needed to get some leverage on this creature so that he could reach them. He grabbed the chair and shoved it into the desk without thinking twice. There was a gruff gasp as though someone had been punched in the stomach and the grip on his arm loosened.
It was enough, Richard took the advantage and slipped his arm from the tentacle grabbing the curtains and ripping them open wide. Bright sunlight poured in and there was another furious hiss again and then nothing.
Richard fell to the floor with his back to the window, staring at the underside of the desk. The sun now fully shone brightly into the once dark area, and Richard saw nothing at all to suggest that anything had been there. With the exception of a small glint, the brassy coin was shining happily in the light.
"So the tentacle came out from under the desk and grabbed your arm?" Andy threw Richard a skeptical look over his shoulder while bending down to look under the desk.
Richard sighed. He had called Andy about five minutes after the incident had happened. His father was on the late shift and he didn't feel like being alone in the house when it started to get dark.
Before Andy came over he had turned on all the lights in the house and opened all the windows. And he had stayed clear of his bedroom and the coin.
"Andy if this was some kind of trick don't you think I would have told you by now?" Richard groaned. Andy had been there for over an hour now. And he had not believed a word of Richard's story.
Richard had been known to pull the wool over Andy's eyes before but this time Andy was having none of it.
"Richard, I know you have a great imagination, my dead wizard self can testify to that, but when your childhood goes so do these childish games. Seriously, did you actually think I would believe this?" Andy scoffed.
Richard stood up and glared at Andy, he'd had enough.
"No Andy, I expected that my so called best friend would believe me no matter what," he yelled in anger.
Andy pulled back from the desk and sat in the chair looking hurt.
Richard grabbed the coin off the floor from where it had been laying and shoved it into Andy's palm.
"Explain this Andy, its real aged brass, where would I get something like this?" Richard grumbled.
Andy brought the old coin to his face and he examined it. The coin featured a dragon's head on one side and a jousting knight on the other. The brass had dark blotches in some areas indicating the age of the coin itself. Otherwise it was in good condition.
It was as though someone had polished this coin with a brass polish everyday of its lifespan, which for all Richard knew was centuries.
Andy continued mull over the coin examining every blotch and etch. He rubbed it with the flat of his thumb and then sniffed it.
Richard rolled his eyes.
"Andy what the hell, are you doing? It's a coin not a well aged cheese," he grumbled.
Andy shot him a look.
"You're lucky I'm still even here to listen to all this nonsense so just shut up and let me do my thing alright? My dad owns a coin collection, he taught me how to age coins," he said.
Richard bit his tongue and put up with five more minutes of Andy doing everything but licking the coin. He was quite sure it was coming too when Andy suddenly put the coin on the desk and looked out the window, a serious look coming over his face.
He put his arms behind his back and looked out the window, Richard rolled his eyes, the only thing that was missing was a smoking jacket and a snifter of brandy and the illusion of Andy's father would be complete.
After a moment of this Andy finally turned and looked Richard in the eye.
"Richard where did you get this coin?" he asked with all seriousness.
Richard sighed.
"I already told you Andy, I'm not going to explain it again," he groaned.
Andy looked him over.
"The coin is at least fifteen centuries old, which would make it medieval," Andy said, still all seriousness.
"So what does that mean?" Richard asked.
Andy stared at him for a moment, than suddenly looked at his watch.
"It means I'm late for dinner, we can talk about this tomorrow," and before Richard could protest Andy was out the door and down the stairs.
Richard sighed and turned to the coin on the table, staring at it. He wasn't sure but he thought he saw some movement underneath the desk. He flicked the light on in his room; it was starting to get dark.

In the tranquil Smith's Sound between the St. Davids island and Smith's island, lies the secluded Oswego Island. The 3.2 acre island is the perfect respite to enjoy the simple pleasures of island living.
Oswego house is the ideal place to relax and enjoy paradise with all the comforts of home. Uniquely designed by the award-winning architect Jacob Hocking of CTX, the home is combined of old and new features, and is a pleasing marriage of traditional Bermudian architecture with contemporary modern design. Designed to let the outdoors in, the brand new three bedroom dwelling boasts natural water views, more than ample porch space and an open-plan. The fluid design together with retractable folding doors allow for the gentle island breeze to flow endlessly throughout the whole house. At least a week's stay is recommended to totally relax, unwind and thoroughly enjoy Oswego Island.
Bring your own boat up to 100 ft and keep it at the north dock while your guests stay in the house.(see photos)
My husband and I came to this beautiful island for our 5 year anniversary. Oswego house is absolutely gorgeous! Every morning we ate breakfast out on the patio that overlooks the ocean and beautiful landscaping. Our room was extremely comfortable, clean and very peaceful. Everyday we were taken out for an adventure! We went cliff jumping, snorkeling over the reefs, relaxed at private beaches, and kayaking. The water is calm, warm and crystal clear. We felt very safe and comfortable the entire trip and they always made sure we were having a good time. We got to feel like true bermudians going to all the secret beaches. You could never get the same experience going to a hotel and booking activities separately. We will definitely be back again very soon!
One of the most relaxing few days you could ever have, quiet, comfort, and beauty
If living on your own private island, in a stunning home, with use of a boat to give you quick access to all that Bermuda has to offer is your idea of a dream vacation then this private Oswego Island rental is for you. Geoffrey, the owner and his team are always at hand for any needs you have, and as long as you are comfortable operating a small motor boat than don't miss this awesome experience.
My trip to Oswego was a fabulous surprise planned by my husband who worked closely with Geoffrey to make sure everything was in place and organised for our arrival.
The island is simply stunning. It's a short hop from St. Georges on Geoffrey's boat if you're not bringing your own boat and at about 3 acres, is tucked away between St Davids and Smith's Islands. The gorgeous dock leads to a path through the spice trees where the lovely Jacob Hocking designed home sits commanding uninterrupted views out towards Smiths' Island and the open ocean.
The open plan design of the home is perfect for entertaining with a fabulous porch with doors that fold right back to create a lovely open and airy space.
This is the perfect retreat to totally decompress. Days were spent reading in the hammock, kayaking round the island and enjoying the peace and tranquility with our friends.
Geoffrey was on hand on the "mainland" whenever we needed him and was always helpful and polite and great to work with. He organised a great chef for my birthday dinner, a masseuse and a lovely sailboat to take us out for a few hours.
I would love to go back, really soon!!!
A vacation rental is always an adventure especially if the place you are renting is the only home on a private 3 acre island in the middle of paradise!
Putting it mildly, Oswego House on Oswego Island in Bermuda is by far the most luxurious home we've ever rented. Every detail of this luxury island gem was meticulously thought out. From the breath-taking views of the open air porch to the spacious contemporary design of the state-of-the-art restaurant style kitchen to the 5 star master bathrooms, this place has to be seen to be believed. At every turn, you can feel the perfect combination of architecture and design at work to make this home a complete work of art.
Getting around was exciting and fun. As a novice boater, I found this part of our vacation to be remarkably easy. Navigating the calm waters of Smith's Sound and getting to the market or the beach was way more fun than I thought it would be. The water ways are not crowded and even with my little to no experience, I felt very comfortable taking the small Boston Whaler out an about wherever we needed to go. Whenever we felt apprehensive or wanted to explore beyond our boating comfort zone, the amazing Oswego staff were there at the ready.
One of the main reasons our stay was so enjoyable and relaxing was due to the gracious Oswego staff. They go far and above to make you and your guests feel more like family than visitors. Fishing trips, family excursions, gourmet in-home prepared meals, water and ground transportation are just some of the services that the Oswego staff can provide. They customize your stay around the things you and your guests need and enjoy doing. It's absolutely perfect in every way!
So, if you are looking for an unforgettable unique vacation and want to experience Bermuda like the native islanders do every day, Oswego House on Oswego Island is your perfect destination.
Floral Park, NY
I had the pleasure of staying the weekend at Oswego Island. It was truly an awesome experience! The exclusive, private surroundings was the perfect getaway! The private chefs served up an exquisite lobster meal with class! I can't wait to go back!!!

Oudin receives US Open wild card
Associated Press | Last updated August 15, 2012
Former U.S. Open quarterfinalist Melanie Oudin has received a wild card into this year's tournament. The U.S. Tennis Association announced on Wednesday the eight women awarded wild cards. The 20-year-old Oudin was the darling of the 2009 Open with her surprise run to the quarterfinals. But the American has struggled to maintain that form since and wasn't ranked high enough for automatic entry this year. Other Americans receiving wild cards are Bethanie Mattek-Sands, Nicole Gibbs, Mallory Burdette, Victoria Duval and Julia Cohen. Gibbs and Burdette were this year's NCAA singles finalists, and Duval was the USTA girls' 18s champion. Australia's Casey Dellacqua and France's Kristina Mladenovic receive the last two spots under reciprocal arrangements with the Australian and French Opens. The year's final Grand Slam starts Aug. 27.

EUR/USD in sideways range
EUR/USD is trading between $1.3324 (euro touched this level 3 times) on the upside and $1.3260 (yesterday's low) on the downside.
The pair lacks any significant momentum for now. Euro area will release employment change data at 09:00 GMT. European finance ministers meet today, so there may be a stream of comments. Later today there will be a bunch of data from the US at 12:30 and 13:55 GMT.
EUR/USD looks very resilient despite good data from the US and the talk of the Fed's tapering. America is definitely the focus for now as the war in Syria is put on hold.

Washington, June 24 : An Indian-origin researcher at the University of Florida has revealed that a new wingless, saucer-shaped aircraft he has made is all set to take to the skies.
Instead of calling his aircraft a UFO, Subrata Roy calls it a "wingless electromagnetic air vehicle" (WEAV).
Roy insists that a successful flight of his aircraft may usher in a new age of aircraft design.
"If this works and we are able to fly it, this will be a quantum shift in how we see flying objects," Discovery News quoted him as saying.
He revealed that the WEAV would rely on a physical phenomena known as magnetohydrodynamics for its flight.
He pointed out that a fictional submarine powered by a magnetohydrodynamic drive in the Sean Connery starrer film 'The Hunt For Red October' was probably the most widely known example of the technology.
Roy said that his aircraft would have different sets of electrodes placed on a thin ceramic plate.
While one set would be located on the top and bottom of the craft to move ionized air down and provide lift, the other set would be placed along the sides to propel the aircraft forward.
According to him, the electrodes would create a conducting fluid by ionising the surrounding air into plasma.
He said that the force created by passing an electrical current through this plasma would push around the surrounding air, and that air would then create lift and provide momentum and stability to the aircraft.
Anthony Colossa, a researcher at NASA's Glenn Research Center who is not involved in Roy's work, said that the WEAV would be the first aircraft to fly using magnetohydrodynamics.
He revealed that, eight years ago, a NASA team once tried to use ionised air propulsion to fly an aircraft that was attached to an external battery.
"When they first did it they thought it was miraculous, an anti-gravity machine, all that stuff. Then they stuck it into a vacuum and it didn't move," he said.
Roy said that his aircraft's first test flight might take place in as little as four months.
He said that if the test flight turned out to be a success, it would pave the way for larger-scale versions of the WEAV.
Experts at NASA and the U.S. Air Force are taking a lot of interest in Roy's project.
"We've been getting so many phone calls and emails, you wouldn't believe it," said Roy.

Steaming / Humidifying is one of the fastest and effective way of preparing shuttlecock for tournament. It's recommended that this process is performed 2-3 days before being used and stored in a cool and humid area. There are multiple ways to create the steam needed for humidifying the shuttlecock. One way is to boil a water and use the steam. A much better approach is to purchase a humidification system that produce warm/cool steam.
|– Steam Step 2 –
|– Steam Step 3 –
6 Steps of Steaming / Humidifying
- Remove both ends of the shuttlecock tube's caps.
- Place each tube over the humidifier exhaust or a pan full of steaming water so that the steam can pass through from one end, the entrance, of the tube to the other end, the exit.
- When the steam comes out of the exit end of the tube, wait for 2 seconds and turn the ends around.
- Repeat from steps 2 with the change.
- Caps both ends of the shuttlecock tube to keep the moisture inside the tube.
- Store the tube in a cool and humid room, e.g. your bathroom / shower. Never store or leave shuttlecocks in your car during dry Hot OR Cold weather!

First openly gay Episcopal bishop in US to divorce husband
By Rachel Zoll, AP Tuesday, May 6, 2014, 12:02 am TWN
NEW YORK--The first openly gay Episcopal bishop, who became a symbol for gay rights far beyond the church while deeply dividing the world's Anglicans, plans to divorce his husband.
Bishop Gene Robinson has never been fully accepted within the more than 70 million-member Anglican Communion, which is rooted in the Church of England and represented in the United States by the Episcopal Church.
Robinson announced the end of his marriage to Mark Andrew in an email sent to the Diocese of New Hampshire, where he served for nine years before retiring in 2012.
Robinson would not disclose details about the end of their 25-year relationship but wrote Sunday in The Daily Beast he owed a debt to Andrew "for standing by me through the challenges of the last decade."
"It is at least a small comfort to me, as a gay rights and marriage equality advocate, to know that like any marriage, gay and lesbian couples are subject to the same complications and hardships that afflict marriages between heterosexual couples," Robinson wrote. "All of us sincerely intend, when we take our wedding vows, to live up to the ideal of 'til death do us part. But not all of us are able to see this through until death indeed parts us."
Robinson declined to comment further Sunday to The Associated Press.
The bishop endured death threats during his 2003 consecration and intense scrutiny of his personal life, and in 2006, he sought treatment for alcoholism. His election prompted some Episcopal dioceses and parishes to break away and establish the Anglican Church in North America with other theological conservatives overseas. Robinson was barred in 2008 by then-Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams from the Lambeth Conference, the once-a-decade global meeting of all Anglican bishops, as Williams struggled to find a way to keep Anglicans united.
But Robinson was also widely celebrated as a pioneer for gay rights, became an advocate for gay marriage and was the subject of several books and a documentary about Christianity, the Bible and same-sex relationships. He delivered the benediction at the opening 2009 inaugural event for U.S. President Barack Obama and, after retirement, became a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, a Democratic think tank with close ties to the White House.

Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
März 2003
BeschreibungFeisty, determined, impatient, and unmarried, 30-year old Chelsea Phillips meets Michael, a sergeant in the U.S. Army, while on temporary assignment to The Tierra Mar Home For Abandoned Children. The Home is located in a remote area in Honduras and survives under harsh conditions. Chelsea encounters government corruption and bureaucracy, drug traffickers, deforestation, and the black market throughout this fast-paced, intriguing story. She finds herself enmeshed in conflicts in the Home, the lives of the people, government officials, and Michael, who is struggling with his own insecurities and difficulties. Green Passions takes a dramatic turn when the Minister of Education sends Chelsea on a harrowing, 8-hour journey to a remote Indian village and Michael is severely wounded in a battle against drug traffickers and is taken to Walter Reed Army Hospital. Separated by circumstances, when they are reunited, everything has changed, and Chelsea must make the ultimate decision that will affect the rest of their lives.

Chapter 8 A Question of Fate
It was a tense hour of polite nothings and frantic explanations by Mara and Brynn as they told Shem the course of events that had brought them to his hut. As displeased as he was that Brynn dared to return after running off, he was even more angry at Mara's refusal to explain what she was doing in the area, or where she was heading. Still, in the end, Shem grudgingly allowed the two of them to stay until Mara felt the need to continue on her way. As the night deepened into a deep black velvet, Mara peered through the doorway and looked at the stars above the ocean. She could see the constellation of the cat blinking at her, it's gaze ever piercing the sky from the balmy north.
Soft silver light danced on the waters, illuminating the healing rest that night brings to the world. For the first time in a long time, Mara felt sleepy in the dark. Is this how normal people feel at night. She yawned. They miss so much...
Mara awoke to the savory smells of breakfast as the sky was brightening into a light grey before the first of the suns broke over the earth. She sat up, wondering just when it was she fell asleep, rubbing her eyes and blinking about her. Brynn was up and cooking, no longer favoring her foot, and Shem was sharpening a knife in the corner. Mara could hear the harsh rasp of stone on stone serrate through her ears as small sparks flashed on his blade. Shem's son was still nowhere to be seen.

A corporation is a formal way to organize your business to gain rights and privileges, and to limit your personal liability. There may be tax and financial advantages to incorporation, but it can also increase your business licensing fees and decrease the amount of personal control you have in running your business. There are many legal consequences to incorporation, so it's a good idea to consult an attorney specializing in corporate law. A corporate attorney also represents shareholders unhappy with the actions of a corporation.

About this recipe: A mouth-watering chocolate cake which is extremely easy and quick to make and could easily be made vegan!
This recipe makes a lot of icing so what I do, is I carefully cut the cake in half (horizontally) and put the icing on the bottom half like I'm spreading some butter on a sandwich. I then put the top half back on and use the rest of the icing on top to decorate.
the cake is delicious.. I follwed the recipe perfectly..but it did not rise as much as i would have liked.. any suggestions? - 16 May 2012
Beautiful cake, It came out quite flat and fell apart a bit even though i had used self raising flour plus the baking powder, however it tastes delicious, and was the perfect solution to my no eggs crisis ! will definately make again, Thanks ! - 27 Sep 2012
Delicious! - 07 Aug 2010

It's hard to deny the beauty of Phuket, Thailand. But for most people, it's just as hard to pronounce the name of the city correctly. Plenty of people say "foo-KET" when really it should be pronounced "poo-GET." The list of commonly mispronounced places starts there and goes on and on. Here are some of the more popular examples that people consistently seem to miss:
Cannes, in France, has no "s" sound, so it's pronounced just like "can." Bangkok isn't pronounced how an English speaker would phonetically assume, but is instead "BONG-gawk." A popular way to pronounce Beijing in China is with a "z" sound for the "j," when really it should be pronounced "bay-JING." The country Iraq has seen a variety of pronunciations, but the correct one is "ee-ROCK," not "eye-RACK." Watch the video below for more examples.

We know that having a unique and one-of-a-kind wedding is something that couples desire. When you step foot at the brand new Hyatt Ziva Cancun, you can be assured that "unique" and "one-of-a-kind" are things that the property can effortlessly achieve.
Our Destination Wedding Specialists, Dori and Susan were on location, scoping out the property last week. From the hotel facilities to the world-class service, this new resort upholds Hyatt's notable reputation of being the Evolution of All-Inclusive®.
If having a private and secluded wedding is important for your big day, then this is THE property for your wedding. This stunning resort provides a central location within the Cancun resort strip, while offering unlimited privacy in areas where other guest cannot access.
The location translates well into weddings. Your big day will be sheltered from any other guests and passer-by's. Whether you choose to say your "I do's" under their modernly elegant wedding gazebo, or along the pristine beach, your ceremony will be tucked away, exclusively for you and your guests.
In addition to their private wedding locations, the Hyatt Ziva Cancun possesses a plethora of areas that promise a picture-perfect backdrop for your wedding photos. From their stunning pier, lighthouse (did we forget to mention that this is the only property along the resort strip that offers this), to the vivid colors of the ocean, wedding photo ops here are absolutely ENDLESS.
Aside from the perfect wedding elements, the Hyatt Ziva Cancun truly lives up to its luxurious reputation. Its perfect balance of adults-only and kid-friendly facilities makes it great for families. The highlights of the resort include their one-of-a-kind Candy Shop and Diner.
The accommodations are modern and elegant. The natural elements are gorgeous, paying homage to the Mayan culture that the destination is known for. Nothing is overstated in their design. This property achieves an elegant atmosphere seamlessly and without effort.
For more information or to book your wedding at the Hyatt Ziva Cancun, contact Dori, Susan, or email our Weddings Department at firstname.lastname@example.com.

"Really Sad we had to leave"
I stayed in the 4 bedroom condo for my husband's birthday. We took our adult children and it was the best experience I have had in years! 4 bedrooms , living room , dining area , fully stocked kitchen three bathrooms , balcony , bbq, best furniture for our needs! and on and on !!!! Staff was so good and they took care of all my requests and needs. The weekend was not enough and I booked for a full week next year and we can hardly wait . The roof top hot tub was out and the pool was not great , however there was so much good with the place I can forgive that

"VERY helpful staff"
James greeted us with a big smile when we walked in to the lobby and was incredibly helpful! We had booked our room over the phone with reservations.com who had promised us the room was pet friendly but when we arrived at the hotel all of their pet friendly rooms were occupied. James we quick to resolve this issue for us (as I was close to a breakdown after a long day of stressful travelling through a blizzard). We got to our room and they had a dog bed, bowls, and a treat laid out for our pup. We felt very welcomed. The Inn is older and could use a reno but it also added to the character. Covered parking made it so we didn't have to clean the snow off our vehicle in the morning which was a bonus. 2minute drive to the off leash dog park in Banff which was another bonus.

"It's a dog's life at the Inn"
We now travel with our Siberian husky pup & only a few Banff hotels accept dogs. We were very pleased with this place: as advertised dogs are welcomed here, with a giant dog bed, food bowls, treats & even a toy to keep, we all felt at home. Having become used to lesser quality "dog rooms", this was a nice surprise, clean, spacious & had a mountain view balcony. The city of Banff has a terrific dog park located in the small industrial area (ask the hotel staff for directions) that is fenced & full of trees, the nicest dog park we have visited to date. Check this place out if you travel with a canine companion!
Reviewed September 2016
"Simply Unreal"
Our room was overlooking a very large hot tub with a stunning mountain view from the hot tub and the large balcony! We booked using an app last minute and it wasn't peak season so the price was fantastic, neither of us have credit cards and they had no problems with holding a cash deposit that wasn't outrageous like other places can be. Wish we could have stayed longer!

"Great place with incredible views"
This is my favorite spot in Banff, However you must book it with some time to get the best rate for rooms with mountain views... but even then, a standard room with no view can enjoy of the pool terrace which is right in front of the mountains, I like the view in summer and winter time, the heated pool allows you to enjoy the amazing Rockies full of snow in winter time. Now the facility needs some update and better maintenance, but the location really exceeds the infrastructure.

"Awesome. Dog friendly rooms are great"
We often travel to Banff and have stayed at different hotels with different budgets, but I had never been enthusiastic about writing a review as I am this time; if I ever write a review is to warn people about certain issues, but in the case of the Inns of Banff it's the opposite. Although a little bit of a maze going from our room to the pools or to the restaurants, the hotel in general was very clean and concerning our room, you can't even tell that was special for dogs as the carpet was fresh and the room was spotless; the beds were new and comfortable and we had good fluffy pillows. Toiletries were natural and locally made.

The Manananggal's Side
I am Maring, a Manananggal. My kind has been widely misunderstood by others. We have been hunted and left to suffer. No one understands us. We never chose to be like this, nor want to hurt others. It is just because of our circumstances that we have to hunt.
I have, on many occasions, tried to feed on crops as regular humans would. However, my body rejects it and I grow weaker by the day.
Alejandro, a Manananggal from a different barrio, raped me one day. Despite what he did to me, I never hated him. After that day, I never saw him again.
Contrary to popular belief, we are not barren. We also bear offspring, but only by the hands of our kind. I gave birth to a young Manananggal and I have to feed her.
I never liked the idea of killing people. Wild animals do me good, but I grow hungry really fast. I do not think this will work for my daughter. I have to act fast or she will die. The nearest human settlement is Barrio Masagana. One evening I smelled a delicious unborn child inside its mother nearby.

The average American spends $271 on gift-giving per child each Christmas – and, between fleeting toy trends and technology that all too quickly becomes obsolete, no gift is guaranteed to last. One new company is seeking to boycott toys in favor of giving children and young people a more meaningful gift: goals.
"Sow," founded by Tanya Van Court (former Senior Vice President at Discovery Education), is a platform that makes it possible for children to receive monetary gifts that support meaningful goals in their lives.
The idea came to her following her daughter's birthday. "My daughter asked for two things for her 9th birthday: money to finish saving for her investment account and a bike," says Van Court. "Instead, she got Rainbow Looms." It was then she realized that the gift-giving dynamic between young people and those who love them was broken.
"We're encouraging them to want more and more things instead of saving for meaningful goals that can actually make a difference in their lives," she says in a 60-second video for The Pitch, where female entrepreneurs must sell you on their product in under a minute.
Give goals, not gifts
The way it works is simple: create a profile and let people follow you and your goals. If you're a parent, add your kid and let them get support for goals that matter. If you're a college student, tell Sow what school you attend so alumni can support your goals.
Personal savings as well as donation seeds can be grown on the platform. "Sow gives parents and young people the tools and inspiration to launch goals in three categories: saving towards future goals, sharing with those who are less fortunate, and spending wisely on things that matter," says Van Court in an interview with SheKnows.com.
Seeds for the future
One Sower, 20-year-old Sarah N., saves for her future after college. "I am searching for my future, which I have learned means I need to save for it, too," she says on her Sow profile. Among her sown seeds: a new laptop, retirement, and the eventual donation of a large sum of money to the Special Olympics.
Sow promises to help teach young people the true value of money as they pursue their dreams in a financially responsible and socially responsive way. It can also help parents with the responsibility of sorting out the financial gifts their kids may get.
"On birthdays, holidays, and every day, their friends, families, and connected networks can give them monetary gifts that help to support their goals and grow their dreams," says Van Court.
The platform is set to launch on Monday, December 7.

Your Audi dealership isn't the only place to buy trusted replacement parts for your 4000 Quattro.

It's not every day that you realize that you have to buy a replacement Brake Rotors & Discs to repair your car or truck.
The ability to stop your vehicle when you need it to stop is absolutely vital to protecting your car. Rather than having shoes apply force in opposite directions away from each other, disc brake rotors get clamped in one spot by brake pads.

Brake rotors are better in wet weather than drums, and are virtually always included from the factory on current vehicles. Your Audi 4000 Quattro owes its ability to slow down thanks to the brake rotors that are installed on each wheel.
Procuring new Audi parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the absolute greatest original and aftermarket replacement 4000 Quattro parts on the internet.
