Corporate and finance tie-up in the pipeline
Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft is considering plans to radically restructure two of its core groups, corporate and finance, as the firm continues to battle the effects of the collapse of its structured finance and capital markets practice.
The plans, which have still to be agreed, coincide with an expansion of the firm's senior leadership and the introduction of a new standalone role of firmwide chairman, as first reported by The Lawyer (27 February).
Cadwalader is examining proposals to merge part or all of its corporate and finance groups, which are currently headed by Louis Bevilacqua and Chris White respectively.
Bevilacqua confirmed that Cadwalader is examining plans to restructure the two groups. "We're looking at the concept of being better focused on our clients' needs if we merge the groups to create a unified practice practically and formally," Bevilacqua says. "But this is a work in progress."
Cadwalader managing partner Bob Link echoes Bevilacqua, saying: "The merger hasn't happened yet. If it enhances the platform for our clients, we'll go through with it."
Cadwalader believes a merged corporate and finance group could provide a platform for its nascent private equity group, which was launched earlier this month when it hired former Latham & Watkins global private equity co-head Ron Hopkinson (www.thelawyer.com, 7 February).
It is considering whether the new private equity group could act as a natural bridge between M&A, corporate governance and financing.
"This is about synergy for clients," says executive board member Greg Markel. "As private equity develops the finance component is huge. This move isn't tied into the downturn in our point of view. It's not a restructuring but a great opportunity to build in private equity."
Outside Cadwalader, news of the group overhaul was received differently. One New York recruiter familiar with Cadwalader argues that the move says more about the failure of the firm's core markets than opportunities on which it is hoping to capitalise.
"Chris White had a $30m-$40m [£15m-£20m] business, but now it's down significantly," says the recruiter. "That business has just gone."
The discussions are taking place against a backdrop of significant change at Cadwalader. Last month the firm was forced to lay off 35 associates from its core real estate-related structured finance and capital markets practice following the downturn in the credit market.
And as reported last week (25 February), Cadwalader has also overhauled its top management, with White appointed as firmwide chairman. The new role, effective from 1 March, will result in an expansion of Cadwalader's management function, with two positions, chairman and managing partner, replacing the previous sole managing partner role.
Link will continue in his role as managing partner, but will focus primarily on operational matters, while White is expected to focus on strategy.
Link has faced criticism in some quarters as the public face of Cadwalader's bet on real estate-related structured finance. One former partner, however, argues that it would be unfair to lay the blame for Cadwalader's current woes directly at the feet of Link.
"I've heard that Bob's under pressure for not having hedged the practice enough, but it's very easy to blame someone after the event," says the partner. "No one was complaining when times were good."
Cadwalader says the new management structure is a reflection of the firm's efforts to diversify its service offering. Recently Cadwalader has brought in a succession of notable hires aimed at broadening its practice, the latest and arguably highest profile being Hopkinson's.
Cadwalader is not the only firm in town claiming that the best opportunities often come out of quieter markets. For Cadwalader the current downturn appears to have presented a way for the firm to muscle in on private equity.
"Last year the market was moving too fast, everybody was chasing their tail and focusing on their own practices to be able to look at anything new," argues Bevilacqua. Not now.
Demob happy Declan
St Patrick's Day is still two weeks away, but there was already one happy Irishman in New York last night (Thursday 28 February).
Declan Moylan, the managing partner of Mason Hayes & Curran, is one month away from relinquishing his nine-year hold on the job. At the end of March Moylan becomes the firm's chairman. And by the sound of things when we met for dinner, he will not miss the job. "I think nine years is enough," were his words.
But don't go thinking the Irish market has seen the back of the man. Or indeed the markets in the US, Russia, the Far East…
With Ireland continuing to be a prime source of inward investment, and the US in the sights of Irish real estate developers in return, there's plenty of work for a firm like Mason Hayes to pick up.
Not that Moylan was all smiles. He admitted to being "despondent" that Hillary Clinton looked to be losing out in the presidential race.
"She opened our office in New York in 2004," said Moylan. "I thought I was set to have a friend in the White House."
You might still, Declan, you might still.
Kevin Perry goes large
You can always tell when you're lunching with a Brit in Manhattan – the restaurant's empty when you get to dessert.
Long lunches are not the done thing here. There's money to be made, even in a downturn.
So yes, I admit there was wine. This is not yet a crime in New York. But let me clear one thing up at once. Although comparatively lengthy (ie longer than an hour), and accompanied by a spot of Pinot G, this hardly qualified as a London-style liquid lunch.
The visiting Brit was Kendall Freeman founder and now Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge partner Kevin Perry. And Perry had a few misconceptions of his own to clear up, saying: "I am not now, nor ever have been, nor ever will be, involved in insurance."

After opening, as long as you store your Whisky in a cool, dry place, it will last another 5 years.
The snobs will tell you that once you have half a bottle left, you've only got another 1-2 years left, and once you're down to a quarter of a bottle, it's more like 3-4 months.
We'd just ask you why on earth you haven't finished it yet.
In moderation, obviously. Scotch has been praised by real life, not on commission, health experts, for its ability to prevent heart attacks, blood clots, strokes, dementia and even cancer. A lot of this is down to the ellagic acid which is found in Whisky; a very powerful antioxidant.
Of course if you start messing around with mixers like cherry coke, grenadine syrup and sugared sprigs; the calory count of your drink will change considerably.
Scotch can taste of all sorts, literally; Jura likes to team its malts with liquourice. More broadly, Scotch can have a citrus edge complemented with a light, grassy taste, particularly in the Lowlands. Elsewhere, and especially in Islay, Scotch can be packed with peaty smoked notes. Take a sip, and if it tastes like Lapsang Souchong on a bender, you'll know it's the latter.
Simple answer is, check the bottle. Distilleries such as Glenmorangie, Ardbeg, Auchentoshan, Bowmore, Glen Garioch, Glenrothes and Tomintoul are now producing kosher-certified Whisky. If you're not sure, mourn the loss and move on.
8. How old is Scotch?
9. Is Scotch always Scottish?

@charley289Locale: Cascades and Oregon Coast Range
I'm hiking the Foothills Trail from March 16-20, from West to East. It's a 76 mile trail, in the foothills of the southern Appalachians in South Carolina .
Has anyone out there walked this trail? Do you have any recommendations for the trip?
Thanks kindly,
@marty_mcflyLocale: Southeast US
I have camped in that area its incredible. March would be a good time to do it because It won't be too hot yet. It might be wet. The only resources I know of to point you to are the purebound.com website. Look under the trails section. The guy on that site billy has hiked it and is very willing to accept emails and answer any questions you may have bout the trail. I would also tell you to check out foothillstrail.org. You might be hard up to find rides to the terminii. Hope this helps.
– Marty
@vaporjourneyLocale: Greater Gila
Definitely do this hike. Although I haven't hiked that trail specifically, I have done lots of hiking in the southwestern corner of NC. Such a fantastic area. I'm thinking about thru-hiking this trail in April as a shakedown for PCT this April.
Check out http://www.whiteblaze.net . There is a forum there for 'other trails' where there is lots of info on the Foothills Trail. Quite a few people have hiked it, and everyone seems to have loved it. You could find out anything you needed to know.

We checked in and our room was ready so we went straight up – changed to walking shoes and warmer gear – they don't call it the windy city for nothing! In fact it was bloody freezing – about 9C with a wind that would cut you in two. Had to look out the Norway jackets again. We set off ...
In Which Too Many Selfies at The Bean Were Taken
... Willis Tower (formerly Sears), Trump (which I'd already seen from the street but we had better views on the tour), 311 S. Wacker, the Merchandise Mart and the Chicago Opera. Not only that, but our luck continued here with the weather - despite the occasional wind blast, the sun kept us somewhat warm and we were comfortable being outside in mid-40s temperatures (that's 7-10 C).
By the time we were done with the tour, lunchtime was fast approaching. I had noted Lou ...
Day at the ball park
Today was the day for our trip to Wrigley Field to catch a Cubs baseball game. Although it was not predicted to rain, it was quite windy and cold when we arrived at Wrigleyville.
So much so, that I bought an overpriced hoodie to help stay warm. It does have the Wrigley name on it.
We rode the Green Line to the Loop and transferred to the Red line there. The Green line in an elevated train, ...
... Avis car rental - paul lead the way as he was getting annoyed it was now 16.45pm. We picked the car up, no issues. Getting out of Chicago on the other hand - nightmare The roads are all on Loops, you get in the wrong lane & your going all the way around again. After a bit of shouting we made are way out of Chicago and onto the I-55 south. Two hours ...

Targetfollow, led by Ardeshir Naghshineh, the biggest shareholder in Woolworths when it folded in January, is in talks to buy the former Millennium Dome.
Mr Naghshineh is in negotiations with Meridian Delta Limited (MDL), a joint venture between Quintain, the UK firm working on the regeneration of the area near Wembley stadium, and Australia's Lend Lease, which is working on the Olympic village. The 999-year lease that MDL holds on the Dome is thought to carry a £35m price tag.
The Dome, now known as The O2, plays host to some of the biggest music and sporting events in the country. Beyonce will hold a series of concerts in May and June, and it will be the venue for Michael Jackson's first live shows in 12 years this summer.

Matt was sat on the sofa when I came back into the living room, his arms stretched out along the top and his leg casually crossed. I went over to the photos, looking at her aunt. "These are brilliant."
"Yeah, Cain did a good job."
"I'll have to give some extra for this. Thanks for leaving, it means a lot for her to have photos of her aunt."
"It's a nice touch. Think these photos will impress her friends or rather convince them?" Matt asked.
"Well, I can be very convincing," I say turning back to face him. I listen in to Amy and smile hearing her deep steady breathing. "Sure you don't mind staying while I pop out?"
"I'm sure, I'm meeting Megan in a hour though," Matt tells me checking his watch.
"I won't be long." I leave then quietly closing the door then open it again, "don't touch anything."
I left then going to the hotel, quickly seeing to some details and went downstairs. Cheri was waiting for me when I arrived, I greeted her taking her hand, leading her off to one of the private rooms. Cheri lounged on the sofa staring at me with a twinkle in her eyes and seeing that I wasn't moving towards her she huffed.
"You only want one thing." It was a statement not a question I noted, her lip pouting as she rose and flipped her hair to the side.
"I have never wanted more, you know this, Cheri," I say sternly pulling her to me.
"To bad, the whispers I hear, are they true?" Cheri asked, her gaze roaming over my body, I watched as her tongue ran over her bottom lip.
I turned quick so her back was to me, grasping her against my body and hearing her gasp. "Enough of this talk." I whisper to her ear, I breath in her scent feeling her quickening pulse and my fang extend.
Cheri's fingers dig into my thighs as I break her skin, then as her blood flows into my I roam my hands up cupping her and heard her delighted moan. My hands soon moved back to her waist, not that Cheri could tell her emotions her running wild with my bite affecting her, I pulled away from her neck having my fill and held her until her breathing returned. I moved her to the sofa after healing her neck with a flick on my tongue to seal the bite.
"They must me true," Cheri said her voice dazzled almost. I gave her one last look before leaving and closing the door.
I pulled up on the drive not long after, Matt came outside putting a finger to his lips and pointed back to the apartment. I nodded getting out the of the Land Rover, we needed more space for shopping as a psoe to my BMW and I was glad even now that I picked up a few items from the hotel. We unloaded the car quietly not to wake Amy from her slumber.
"I've got to get going, Megan will be wondering where I've gone," Matt tells me.
"It's fine, I can hang the photos and sort all of this out."
"Well don't forget the bag, coat hooks, mirror, welcome mat. The misses won't be happy or else."
I glare at Matt as he makes a dash for the door and getting into his car. Wise move. I went about my tasks, putting a few coats on the hooks as well as a few dress scarfs of Amy's, I hung the photo of us together on the wall, of Amy and her aunt and of all of us together. The smaller one's I put into frames and dotted them throughout the house.
I was fixing the shoe rack when I heard Amy murmuring in her sleep and decided that I best wake her up or else her sleep pattern would be all over the place. Taking a cool glass of orange juice I went down the hall to the bedroom, knocking lightly before going inside, I was surprised to see her in my t-shirt even though I had brought her items to wear, the sun streamed in from the cheap curtains and I went closer putting her hand on her shoulder gently shaking it.
Her murmuring turned into a moan and she turned away burlying herself avoiding me. I sat on the bed watching as she repositioned herself, her firely hair tousled as she lay on her front and settled herself again.
"Time to wake up," I say softly, gathering her hair to one side so I could see her face. "Amy." I shake her shoulder again, her face scrunching up. "Come on now, wake up." A growl escaped her mouth and she turned finding the pillow to cover herself with. "You can't hide and I don't like being avoided."
"Tough," she moaned from the pillow.
Enjoying the game I decided to play mean, I pulled the pillow from her and dragged the quilt from her body. Amy did turn round then, her sleepy eyes blinked focusing on me and then making a dart for the sheets but I moved above her holding her wrists.
"That's not fair," Amy pouted, only this time it looked cute as opposed to Cheri winney face.
"Tough," I say repeating her word and kissed her forehead. Amy rolled her eyes at me, I sat up bringing her with me. "There's orange juice on the side, don't go back to sleep."
Amy came into the main room shortly afterwards, wearing casual shorts and a loose top. Her hair was brushed but the knicks were still there. She looked better though, her eyes brighter as she expected my handy work and her smile told me that she approved.
"I left these two photos for the bedroom, I didn't want to disturb you." I say handing her the two framed photos of us and of her aunt.
"Good idea, if I know Cassie she will want a tour of every room." Amy takes the photos staring at her aunt.
Thank the heavens we were having this meal here then, they would have a field day with my main home.
"That will take all of five minutes then." Amy nodded and went back into the bedroom, I gave her a moment before following, standing at the door. "Are you hungry?"
Amy looked up and as if I was talking to her stomach it growled in response, her cheeks went pink and she laughed. "It would seem so, what's on the menu this time?"
"How old are?" Amy asks from the sofa. I had set her up on the sofa, T.V remote, drink and a bowl of mushroom risotto from the hotel.
"32," I reply from behind my laptop screen of my work. I felt the glide and grasped the pillow that was being aimed at my head. Surprised I move my head to look at her seeing her raised eyebrow. "Okay, I'm 332." I turn back to my work opening my incoming emails.
"When was you born?" Amy said, interrupting my flow of writing.
"June 18th 1684, England." I tell her and quickly finishing typing my reply and go through the next three before I'm stopped in my tracks.
"Do you have your own coffin? Why does the sun not harm you? How strong are you? What superstitions about vamps are right?"
I run my hand through my hair summing up quickly what was left to do and face Amy, "21 questions?"
"Well, I'm curious and I think I've done well not to question everything sooner. So yes, 21 questions it is." Amy said staring straight at me crossing her arms.
I smiled, "okay then. " I see her open the mouth, "but, only if you allow me to finish my work, I haven't got much left to do and that will give you a chance to think through what you want to ask me."
"Fair enough then, I'll wash my dish and think."
"One more thing, you will show me how good you are at shooting at the range tomorrow." I watch her reaction to my bluntness of spying on her.
"Sure, think I'm going to need to let off some steam before that dinner."
We were both settled on the sofa, the t.v was still on but on low not that we were paying much attention to it.
"One at a time," I say wondering where she would start.
"So, I read, saw some movies but refused to google 'vampire'. What's true?" Amy asked one of the easy questions first and in my opinion she was playing it safe.
"For starters, we don't have coffins, garlic stinks. Holy water does nothing but ruin our clothes, I've seen vampires still go to church on Sundays wearing their crosses around their necks." I pause thinking about the other question she asked. "Sunlight doesn't affect per-say, but new vamps do struggle as first, the sun is stronger on our eyes, everything's heightened you see and to new vamps it can take some time."
Amy nodded, "did vampires make up a lot of the rumors?"
"The myths, some yes."
"Okay. But why doesn't it harm you?"
"Our skin is more resilient than humans, you would catch sunburn badly if you didn't apply sun lotion, whereas our skin can heal itself."
I noticed Amy playing with her ring, I knew that she wanted to know more and was surprised by her next question.
"Have you been married before?" Amy was looking down as she questioned me, her heart beat was steady but with the odd jump.
I took her hand making her look at me so I could see her dark eyes, "I came very close. But it was not for love."
"Then what was it?" Amy whispered.
I wasn't going into detail with her now, I could see the questions behind her eyes but I couldn't explain it all now.
"Tradition you could say, I'm going to get a beer. Would you like anything?"
"I'll have one too please," Amy says her eyes assessing me. "Was that too deep of a question?" I was facing away from her opening the bottled beers.
"You could say that." I have a mouth full of beer and bring them over to the couch.
"Thank you, I'll keep it light then?" Amy offers but I see that she won't drop the subject and knew that I would be explaining my past.
"What else do you want know?"

The Sunlit City
My heart was fluttering. I was homesick. We had just left two days ago, when the festivities were still fresh. Karlena and I had boarded a cart filled with all kinds of people that were headed the same place as us. There were all there for different reasons and from different regions. Take Patcha for example, a little boy we befriended, he was from the Western part of Lestaria and he had came here all by himself—his parents sent him so that he can earn a living. He is only thirteen.
I could never imagine embarking on a trip alone at the age of thirteen. Of course, I would have to bring my sister, or someone I am very comfortable with, like Rafa or Amore.
Karlena was asleep on my shoulder. I squirmed under the weight. She had her travel pack slung over the both of us. Her loud snore resonated throughout the small covered travel cart.
"Miss Ana?"
I cocked my head up and turned to see who said that. It was Patcha; he was leaning over the snoring Karlena and stared up at me with bright, bright green eyes. "Yes?" I sounded. I smiled at him; he was a charming little boy. His eyes were so enchanting and they went well with his jet black curls that hung over his eyebrows. Patcha's skin was sun kissed with freckles and a slight golden tan; he looked like a small changeling—so cute and beautiful.
"Will you and your sister be headed for the western part of Roumijin?"
"Hm..." I pondered for a moment, letting Patcha garner more interest. Then I laughed and said, "Yes, yes we are. Why do you ask?"
Patcha gave a large grin, "Because I am headed that path too! I've been there before!" He rested his arms and let them dangle over Karlena's waist and exclaimed, "I'll show you the whole distirct! It'll be so adventurous!" He took in a breath and said, "Western Roumijin is incredible Miss Ana, I assure you'll have many customers." Patcha gave a devilish grin.
"Oh my..." I heard an elderly woman mutter. When I glanced at her, I also noticed that some people were giving me looks of disapproval.
My cheeks flushed and I glanced at Patcha, whispering, "I dance traditional dances, what did you think I did?" I looked from left to right, sighing as the people around me understood.
Patcha shrugged and replied, "I thought you resembled the type, Miss Ana... My brother said that there are many in Western Roumijin... He should know." He gave another comical grin.
I curled my lip and huffed, "He should know indeed..."
Patcha furrowed his brows at me and shook his head. "My brother never associates himself with Faerie Wanderers—he could get his spells from elsewhere... Plus, he scares them away with the way he looks."
My insides relaxed, Patcha only meant that I resembled a Faerie Wanderer, young women that sell parts of their own magic to make a profit. I felt flattered that he thought I was as beautiful as a Faerie Wanderer, who uses their beauty as a distraction for their faulty magical abilities—their spells are not potent. They usually fancy their victims as stupid, young, attractive men.
"I'm quite sure a Faerie Wanderer's standards are so high that most boys fall under the category of Unwanted, right?"
"Mm..." Karlena stirred before Patcha could answer.
He glanced at me and laughed before regaining a serious demeanour, "You can...say that."
"What is it?"
Karlena let out a yawn and turned around, falling over on Patcha. Fortunately, she was smaller than him, so she didn't over power him. He pushed her aside and said, "It is the truth Miss Anastasija."
I would find it hard to believe that such a beautiful young boy like himself would have an undesirable brother.
"Ow! Anastasija, you're hurting my arm..." Karlena muttered. She stirred around some more then opened her eyes, only to find Patcha gripping her arm. She straightened up, "Oh, it's you... Did I fall asleep on you?"
"You may have..." Patcha cleared his throat, trying to deepen his voice. He garnered a blasé expression and stared into space. I grinned at how mysterious he wanted to look. He kept his eyes on the ground and said, "It was only momentarily anyhow..."
Karlena blinked her eyes and stretched, "Ah, I see."
Patcha's face flushed. I suspected that he had a small liking for Karlena. I saw the way that he warmed up to her as soon as we boarded this cart since yesterday.
"Had a nice nap sister?" I asked Karlena with a smirk.
She rolled her dark brown eyes and huffed, not answering me.
I just laughed and then returned to Patcha. Why was he insisting these sorts of things about his brother? Did he not like him? Was he just spiting him? I gave Patcha a hard stare and asked, "Are we going to see your brother when we get to Roumijin?"
He nodded at me, "Oh yes, he's the one I shall be living with. He lives in the town's beacon tower—he's the Gatekeeper's Apprentice."
"Who is this?"
We both glanced at Karlena, she had taken out a small loaf of bread from her bag and she was eating it small pieces, ripping each between her skinny fingers. Patcha rushed in and said, "My brother, Tristan, the Gatekeeper's Apprentice for Western Roumijin."
Karlena nodded, "Oh..." She gave me a look of curiosity. She had just woken up.
"Have you ever been to Western Roumijin?" Patcha asked me.
I shook my head, "Only once...along time ago, so this will really be the serious trip."
Patcha nodded and glanced at Karlena in a sheepish air. Then he asked, "Are you going to be performing?" He avoided making eye contact with her when she looked at him. He ran a hand through his glossy black hair and let out a sharp breath as the cart jumped over the road.
"No...I am not a born performer," Karlena said through a tight smile. She glanced away from his shielded eyes. After a moment she said, "I'm only an Apprentice Healer." Her cheeks flushed, "I cannot dance to save my life."
"Oh, what a travesty..." I whispered under my breath. I t was a shame that my sister couldn't do what we Oramani we born for. I gave her a pert smile as I dodged her striking hand. Patcha was struggling to not get caught under the crossfire.
The travelling cart finally came to a stop. When I stood up to see what was going on, Patcha said, "We're at the gate."
"Is that where we will meet your brother?" I asked him.
He shook his head and rose, gathering his two large sacs. "No, Tristan guards the Southern entrance of the city."
"Oi, that's not good..." Karlena exclaimed. "By the way the sun is set on the sky, we would have to walk the all day, right?" She didn't let us speak as she said, "It'll be evening by the time we're done collecting our sums."
We all hoped off the cart. I coughed, there was a cloud of dust wherever people tread. Karlena and I followed after Patcha, pulling out our papers.
"You want a place to perform, Miss Ana?" Patcha said as we moved up a large line. He was smiling uncontrollably at me.
I didn't say anything. I just nodded, curious about this boy's content expression.
He toyed with a curl as he said, "I am certain that the Marketplace still garners many rich spectators."
"Really," Karlena said, pushing in-between us with a grin. She liked money. I would sometimes walk in on her with our earnings scattered all over the floor, she would sit for the entire afternoon counting and counting the multiple coins and bills we received.
Patcha nodded, somewhat looking stiff, as Karlena was right by his side. I stood back and hid my smile; it was almost cute to watch this unfurling. We moved up farther along the long line, waiting under the tanning sun.
It was getting cold and the night had finally arrived. The city streets were less busy and the vendor stands were faded behind worn sheets, protecting them from the absent rain. Patcha was right; we had made a good profit at the marketplace. Karlena and I had enough money to last us two weeks here.
"Are you certain we could stay with you?" Karlena asked Patcha. She didn't like being a burden to acquaintances.
Patcha waved his hand, "Yes, yes!"
"Your brother doesn't mind visitors? Is he as hospitable as you are?" I asked as we trudged down a dirt path. The road had ended a mile ago. There was a forest up ahead now. We were steering out of city limits. I was starting to get nervous about this, so I suggested, "Patcha, we don't have to burden you and your brother. Karlena and I...we can just stay at an Inn, with proper rooms—we have the board."
He laughed as he started to guide us through the forest ahead. "Don't be ridiculous, it's the least I could do for you two."
"Hmm..." Karlena hummed. I knew she hated to dark. She also hated being in dark forests.
I latched onto my handmade shawl and shivered in the whistling wind. "Is there proper room?"
"Yah," Patcha replied. He was searching through the forest like a true Dweller; it was as if he's always lived here. "Tristan lives in a large beacon tower, there are many warm rooms." He laughed, knowing the Inn, didn't have the proper heating. Then, he came to a sudden stop. Karlena bumped into his back. Patcha turned and whispered, 'We're here."
"Patcha? Why are you whisp—" Karlena was interrupted by Patcha's hand cupping her mouth. She gave him a stunned look.
He blushed as he felt around at the air and closed his eyes. He took hold of Karlena's hand—smiling—and said, "Take hold of Miss Ana's hand please."
Karlena frowned but felt for my hand anyhow. Patcha stepped towards me and stretched his hand at me.
I took hold of it and asked, "Are we not going to find the tower?" I shuddered when the wind's speed picked pace. I kept my expression even and held my breath. My fingertips were tingling with heat. I wondered, was this how Karlena felt when she did magic?
Patcha smile. With the type of expression on his face, he didn't look thirteen. He seemed as old as Rafael. "Miss Ana, we are closer than you think." He shut his eyes then said, "Do the same."
I exchanged glances with Karlena before I shut my own eyes. Then, I felt it; it was a jolt of shock. Energy? I wasn't quite sure.
Then, Patcha sighed. I felt him let go of my hand and I opened my eyes. Behind him was a grand wall. I backed up, still holding my sister's hand. She glanced at me with an awestruck expression.
"Oh Patcha...impressive," Karlena breathed, walking towards the wall and feeling the cold stone. She wrapped her fingers around the vines and beamed at him.
Patcha hid his red face under the moonlight. He shrugged then said, "Really, it was only an Illusionist spell. That is my brother's work." He pointed to the wall, "Come along now."
Karlena shook her head, "I am no good at climbing."
"I'll carry you," Patcha said with a sheepish grin. He was so sure of himself. He looked over at me and exclaimed, "I'll be back shortly, alright Miss Ana?"
My heart skipped. I felt something appear next to me. I darted my eyes towards that direction but saw nothing. I glanced at Patcha and nodded at him fast.
He motioned for Karlena to get on his back. He scaled the twelve-foot wall with ease as I watched him jump down with my sister. I heard her yelp with fear as they hit the soil. I heard them argue while their voices faltered in the distance.
I was alone.
So I decided to sit on a stone and wait.
My skin was frozen with raised bumps. The night's frost only heightened when I thought about something's presence appearing next to me. It was so absurd, yet here I was, buying into my own irrational fears. I decided to stand. I felt safer that way.
I convinced myself it was nothing until the relief sank in. It felt like a warm breeze, so relaxing that I began walking towards the breeze that my conscious thought up. It didn't seem cold now where I was. I sighed.
When I stopped walking, I noticed a lake was before me in some few short paces. The wall, on the other hand, was a running distance away. That is good, I can always run back, I am fast and able.
I examined the large lake. It was beautiful under the moon's radiance. Alluring. I went towards it and became entranced by its mysterious glow. There was also a smell, it was hard to describe, sweet, was all I can think of.
I sat near the edge and stared at myself. I treaded the surface with one hand. At least I wasn't a mess. I laughed.
There was a soft chorus of laughter. They all mirrored my own. I stopped giggling and looked over my shoulder.
That was when I saw them. Sylphs, many of them, there were about fifteen or so. All of them resembled tall glowing pillars of light.
"Um...hello?" I chimed to them. I shrank back and felt uneasy in their midst. They kept their large doe eyes on every single movement I made. They all had emanating clear pools for eyes.
The Sylphs moved fast, like floating, as they came to me. They all wore the same flower petal dresses. Their dresses were stark white, like their large feathery wings. Their kind smiles disarmed me.
I held up a hand, they all made a tight group around me, their wings blinding me with light. I stood up in a calm way, as to not scare them. I remembered my father talk about Sylphs once. They were like birds, curious, fragile. All of them towered over me at impressive heights, making me feel insignificant and small. They were truly a marvel.
Suddenly, my sense went soft. My vision blurred to a mist as a particular light that emanated from all of them. They all grinned, their blue hair floating as they did so. I smelled a sweet scent as the moved away me, forming a lined path. I had just realized there were more of them farther on.
My eyes rested at the end of the line. The strongest light was coming from that one. I was in a drunken stupor almost from the pure light and smell. It was so overwhelming; I actually sensed all of their energy. I wasn't a very magical person. Karlena was the one gifted with that. I relied on physical skills, so this...it was so incredible.
I caught my breath when the Sylph appeared in front of me.
He had the same expression the others had—curious, calm, and welcoming. A ring of leaves was perched on his stark silver hair. He had a rather young face, yet looked upon me with such reverence that only the elders were capable of doing. It was absolutely bewildering.
His sage green eyes glowed with a sift touch in the dark. He searched my face, examining it. I stood and looked up at him, frozen with astonishment.
"H-hello..." I muttered. It was such an irrelevant word to utter. In fact, anything to be said presently was irrelevant. I held my hands together and whispered, "You are their king." I mostly said this to myself. I flushed when he smiled. It wasn't my fault. My father had recounted that this was the effect the Sylphs had on mere mortals, always charming them, hypnotising them.
He never spoke a word. None of them did. Their expressions were their form of communication. Although, now, the air felt dense. They did that, they controlled the air, changing it as they please. They could cut off my breath in a matter of seconds if they wanted to.
"Did I do anything?" I asked, tensing up in the sudden cold breeze.
The entire Sylphs' wings fluttered. They fled for the trees and the lake, disappearing.
That was when I heard Patcha shouting, "Miss Ana? Where are you?"
Before I could say anything, I looked at the king again. He was still, looking alert. I should have known what was going to be bestowed upon me at that moment.
He took my hands in gentle hast and his wings flapped once and in silence, like an owl in flight. It was as if it had never happened. I gaped at his stoic expression, the tip of his nose right up to mine. I shut my eyes and waited for the flying to stop. When I opened them, behind his face, I saw the stars and sky. Below me, I felt the lake's water.
We were sinking down, the Sylph king and I. I never stopped hearing my sister and Patcha calling after me. I tried to speak, but no sounds came out. My voice was stolen. A strange feeling of peace overwhelmed me as we sunk down at an eternally slow pace, as if, I was always near him.
I felt myself bite my lip, no; this was the Sylph's effect. I had to fight it somehow. If only...
Right. I closed my eyes, feeling drowsy...
I gasped, just my face was immersed. Water didn't enter my lungs, it was air. It felt different from the air above. It was light and pure; it reminded me of the Sylphs. I moved my eyes to the Sylph King's face.
Every muscle in my wanted to flee. This was instinct.
"Do not be afraid," he stated.
I tried speaking again, I was not fortunate with my second try. I watched my long wavy hair dance around my eyes likes black seaweed. I glanced at my hands entwined with his. These weren't my hands, just numb appendages attached to my arms. I had no mind for them now.
If this was being kidnapped by a Sylph, I was in complete accordance with it, whether or not I wanted to comply.
My mouth pulled. Was it a smile? I saw him smiling at me now. I watched as a light came over the over of us. It was so bright. I felt it, like soft feather of light.
No, those were his wings.

The daring engineer/producer Scott Harding (aka Scotty Hard) has worked with some of the biggest names in hip-hop, jazz, alternative and creative music. Over the last year, saxophonist Michael Blake has been producing Party Hard (for Scotty Hard) with the intentions of both helping a friend and making a point about the value of intellectual property. Michael and the community of musicians behind Party Hard (for Scotty Hard) are proud to announce the release of this very special track in tandem with the Music Frees All Festival; a three day benefit for Scott happening this weekend (July 19th - 21st). Party Hard is a funky furlough that takes the listener through a gamut of musical territories, with spine tingling solos from John Medeski, David Tronzo, Marcus Rojas and Blake. All of the musicians played from their hearts, bringing a unique brand of soul and musicianship to every beat.
In 2008 after a near fatal car accident that left him paralyzed, the eclectic engineer/producer Scotty Hard spent many months recovering in NY hospitals. After being diagnosed with a severe spinal cord injury, Scott worked his butt off in rehab to regain the strength, independence and skills required to start a new life. The outpouring of support on both coasts was immense. The Scotty Hard Trust was set up in his name to help raise funds that provide him immediate and long-term financial support. Unfortunately, not long after his recovery, his health took a left turn. For over two years a circle of friends helped Scotty get the rest he needed in order for him to heal from a pressure wound. While he had limited access to his wheelchair and thus less time to work, his trust has been depleted. Scotty's patience has finally started to pay off! The wound is healing and he is slowly getting back to work.
Michael and Scott's relationship goes back to their college days but a pivotal recording - 1997's Kingdom of Champa with the legendary producer Teo Macero at the helm - introduced Scott to a new generation of innovative musicians. After 1997 Scott recorded landmark albums with Medeski, Martin and Wood, Sex Mob, Charlie Hunter and Vijay Iyer, among others.
Michael recorded the bed tracks at their friend Leif Arntzen's home studio, later adding Miles Arntzen's driving drum tracks, John Medeski's B3 organ and a horn section. When it was time to start editing and take the track to the next level Michael asked the versatile engineer/producer Teddy Kumpel to step in and help man the console. Teddy also added electric bass and recorded all of the remaining tracks. Scotty asked old friends Joel Hamilton to mix and Mike Fossenkemper to master. And just as the track was about to be released, musician/actor/artist John Lurie provided us with a fantastic final touch; a donation of his original painting 'Abundance' for the cover art. There isn't a more appropriate word to use in describing the abundance of affection people feel towards Scotty. It is the cherry on top of a project filled with amazing surprises and world-class artists.
Like so many performing and recording artists Michael is interested in the debate about royalty and licensing rights for Internet streaming. In light of new technology and distribution methods musicians are at a crossroads with the music business as to how much money should be allocated for musicians rights. All of us involved in this project think it's important to raise awareness about the negative effects and long term destructive nature of deeming our music an entitlement to a 'free culture' and not worth paying for. With all the funding from downloads directly funding Scott's trust its irrefutable that there is not only value in a recorded work (worth protecting) but it also proves that this money provides an important source of income for artists that we can't afford to loose.
Party Hard was a pleasure to work on. All of the musicians and engineers donated their time to this cause. I am so proud and grateful that I can share the inspiration and influence of our friend Scott Harding with YOU!" – Michael Blake

Tuesday, Nov 19, 2013
Dubai: The region's committed TV viewers do not stray far away from their sets. In fact, they consume 7.5 hours of TV content each day ... one of the highest in the world.
"Sales of flat panel TVs are at an all-time high is also proof enough of how TV viewership is still in vogue," said Sumo Dutta, country head at Star Middle East Middle East, Africa and Pakistan. "TV is still the key medium to deliver top quality content and 'appointment viewing' to key programmes happens only on TV.
According to industry estimates, pay TV subscriber numbers in the Middle East and North Africa went past 10 million in the first quarter of 2012 and expected to soar to 15.8 million by end 2017, which is a 20 per cent penetration of TV households in this territory. (The number of TV households was 94.5 million at the end of last year.)
"As TV broadcasters, it's a great time for content producers as multiple sources of viewing the content are opening up. With the rise of all things digital, audiences have only grown on TV with new media being a superb marketing tool to drive viewership to TV for the main show."
Dutta's premise that web TV does not represent a new ecosystem but a value-add to conventional TV viewing does hold up. But advertisers and agencies are keenly aware that there needs to be a tweaking of the marketing ploys.
According to Ashish Gupta, associate director for digital at BPG Maxus, "Web TV providers and opportunities are being viewed pretty seriously, and I believe the success of YouTube pre-roll and mid-roll ads are proof of the fact. The possibilities web TV offers advertisers has changed the definition of TV commercials completely.
"It gives an opportunity to reach viewers based on their behaviour and preferences, not to mention engage with them in a way traditional TV cannot. Web TV offers focused targeting versus traditional TV's wider reach with a much larger audience. Some have already begun combining their TV and Internet TV campaigns to deliver a trans-medium experience to their targets."
But Dutta at Star insists that acceptance of web TV does not mean an impact on TV ad rates. "Content consumption and viewership is growing exponentially across media," he added. "However, as viewers also watch the TV content online, there will be a rate card for the additional viewers.
"It's a bit like eating out; while there are more and more restaurants prompting customers to step out, home delivery is also on the rise. "Television has been the main medium for holding public opinion for decades, it's revolutionised the entertainment industry and how we communicate with viewers. Online will only add to the viewer universe."

Last scene from S4E3 of LOUIE on FX "So did the Fat Lady" - Louis CK - Heartfelt scene about weight issues and relationships
Adam Rifkin stashed this in @louisck
Stashed in: Relationships, Best Videos, Fat!, XY
Best Reddit comment:
I think that a big thing that a lot of people seem to be missing is that 99% of LOUIE is a self-commentary by Louis C.K. He is not trying to make all of the fit people out there who aren't attracted to fat girls feel bad for it. What the conversation is about is about guys who ARE ALSO FAT not being even willing to entertain the idea of being with a fat girl to the point that they won't even flirt with them. It's about making your mirror image feel inferior to you so that you can hold yourself up to some level in the dating world that is not completely realistic. Everyone who is upset over the part of the scene where she is expressing how much it sucks to be a fat girl completely missed the point of the second half of the scene. Why shouldn't a fat guy like Louie, who is doing nothing to improve his physical condition, take a chance at getting to know this chick who he obviously likes talking to? Because, like a lot of other people, he is scared of being seen as a guy that can't do any better for himself.
The point is that people miss out on a lot of good people in life because they just are scared of perception.

God bless President Bush and his family during these trying times. May he heal and be with family at his home.
I swear sometimes, Robber's Cave should be part of the mandatory educational program!
I guess it might not be obvious. That page that you found (and has now been deleted in the OP) is a compiled list. The person who made the blog went out and found and compiled the hateful (and scummy) comments and put it together for our convenience, so that we could be all incensed at "the left". It's a psychological gimmick intended to foster divisions, to help smear an entire cohort of people with the scummy comments of a few.
You can find blogs that do this for us based on any partisan or ideological fight. The internet is a big, big place! I can find Christians wishing atheists would die & vis versa. I can find hateful vitriol focused against climate scientists OR big oil OR prius drivers OR people who drive hummers. I can find hatred to the wealthy and to those on welfare.
And I can find lolcats. It really depends on what you're looking for.
Smitty had to delete the link because the hatred and violent language from the crazies was too much. I completely understand.
If you want to see what passes for discourse in Liberal America you'll have to go to her site: twitchy.com
On second thought, just take my word for it...it's vile.
I was being ironic, you goose! It's really obvious! I was teasing you for lumping together 'the left', and then pretended I was doing the same thing.
(naw, our politics are mean, too. We just do it while holding our beers with one pinkie raised)
This is just embarrassing. I used to associate with the left and in some aspects still do but this kind of vitriol is just awful. Please remember though that not all lefties are this mean...most of them are just sort of clueless with idealistic thoughts of a world full of rainbows and puppy dogs.
My uncle once told me, "If you aren't liberal when you are young, you have no heart...if you aren't conservative as you get older, you have no brain." I don't know if I necessarily buy that statement but I have definitely become more conservative as I've gotten older and less naive about the workings of the world.
I still wouldn't necessarily call myself a conservative but the "al" has changed to a"terian" at the end of the word to describe my leanings.
Hope he gets better, but he's still a gun banner. For that reason alone, I'm glad he's not President anymore.
A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. She considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat, but her father was a staunch Republican. One day she was challenging her father on his beliefs and his opposition to high taxes and welfare programs. He stopped her and asked how she was doing in school. She answered that she had a 4.0 GPA, but it was really tough. She had to study all the time and never had time to go out and party. She didn't have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because of spending all her time studying. On top of that, the part-time job her father insisted she keep left absolutely no time for anything else.
He asked, 'How is your friend Mary?' She replied that Mary was barely getting by. She had a 2.0 GPA, never studied, but was very popular on campus, didn't have a job, and went to all the parties. She was always complaining about not having any money, but didn't want to work. Dad then asked his daughter why she didn't go to the Dean's office and request that 1.0 be taken off her 4.0 and given it to her friend who only had a 2.0. That way they would both have a respectable 3.0 GPA. Then, she could also give her friend half the money she'd earned from her job so that her friend would no longer be broke.
The daughter angrily fired back, 'That wouldn't be fair. I worked really hard for my grades and money, and Mary just loafs. Why should her laziness and irresponsibility be rewarded with half of what I've worked for?' The father slowly smiled and said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party'."
Prayers for a hero.
They tell me that they are more American than Canadian.
Maybe if a former Canadian Prime Minister goes into ICU then we can send "greetings" like our loony Leftists have done. Eh?
If you believe that you can open a Get Well Soon! George H.W. Bush thread & include the name Michelle Malkin in the same post and NOT have the thread morph into Liberal/Conservative/Republican/Democrat political discussion on DefensiveCarry - you would be sorely mistaken. :blink:
You can now see first hand how many replies it has taken for this thread to become a forum rule violation. Not too very many.
We will end it with: Get Well Soon G.H.W. Bush.

My Bruise
It's just a simple essay with a sort of deep meaning.
I woke this morning with a bruise my arm. Weird. I didn't do anything dangerous yesterday. It was your typical Tuesday night: Family Movie Night with sushi and frozen yogurt. Did I fall out of bed and Mom put me back? Nah. I'm 15 now; Mom couldn't carry me.
Hm, well, I'll just put some ice on it. That should help it, right? Wrong. I put the ice pack on it for thirty minutes, and nothing happened! I actually think the bruise had gotten bigger.
This time I'll try soaking it in warm water. Maybe that'll help. Boy, was I wrong. Soaking it in water actually made it hurt worse than before.
None of my methods seem to work, so I'll try and ignore it for now. It doesn't seem to be going away. Maybe if I forget about it, I'll forgot about the pain.

Chapter XXII (Part Two) : Camden – Changing Atmospheres ☰
The boy looked at them, eyebrows slightly raising in suspicion. "A calling?" Camden saw realization sink deep into the features of the young man. "You heard it too?"
The girl stood up slowly, leaning against the wall for support as if she'd been drained of her very energy. She looked confused but she didn't say anything. This, however, didn't hold Daphne back from going on who sounded very sure of herself.
"You cried for help. Camden and I heard it in our minds, and I think that's how we got here."
It all felt like a dream. It had to be.
"How you got here?" The girl finally spoke, her voice fragile as her green eyes widened in fear. "Got here how? Where are you coming from?"
Daphne didn't say anything, turning to face Camden as if she expected him to know the exact name of the location they'd been at. Camden couldn't think, as questions popped up in his mind. The names of different streets and avenues crossed his train of thoughts, but none clicked.
So instead, he decided to just say what Daphne already knew. "The woods."
Silence filled the space between them as Camden's words floated in the air with no real meaning, until comprehension finally spread across the other boy's face.
"You mean the forest?" His eyebrows lifted high as another look of disbelief hit his face. "The one in the country, in the suburbs?"
Camden nodded sorely.
"B-but, that's impossible. It's all the way across town."
A silence settled among all of them. Camden couldn't focus as he felt his heart pound unevenly inside his chest. He didn't believe in magic but he'd began to question the very ground rules of science the moment he'd met Daphne. Could it be possible that magic really did exist, that he was caught up in some kind of supernatural tussle?

|Last updated on August 24, 2007
Golden Act (1976–2000) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse. Sired by Gummo, a grandson of Nasrullah who was a son of the extremely important sire, Nearco, he was out of the mare Golden Shore.
Conditioned in California by trainer Loren Rettele, at age two Golden Act's most important stakes results were a win in the El Camino and a second to Flying Paster in the Norfolk Stakes. At age three, he was a standout in American racing but was overshadowed by Spectacular Bid, a future U.S. Racing Hall of Fame inductee and a horse ranked No.10 in the Blood-Horse magazine List of the Top 100 U.S. Racehorses of the 20th Century.
In the leadup to the 1979 U.S. Triple Crown series, Golden Act finished second in the California Derby at Golden Gate Fields in the San Francisco Bay Area. He then won the Louisiana Derby at the Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans and in April was sent to Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas where he won the Arkansas Derby.
1979 Triple Crown
Golden Act was ridden by future U.S. and Canadian Hall of Fame jockey, Sandy Hawley. In the Kentucky Derby, they were up against a strong field that was led by the overwhelming favorite, Spectacular Bid, and which included the second betting choice, Flying Paster, and the well regarded General Assembly. Sent off at 19:1 odds, Golden Act finished a solid third behind General Assembly and winner Spectacular Bid.
At Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland for the second leg of the Triple Crown, jockey Hawley brought Golden Act from the back of the field to finish in second place to Spectacular Bid in the Preakness Stakes. In New York's Belmont Stakes, the final leg of the Triple Crown, Golden Act used another strong stretch drive to overtake Spectacular Bid and finish second to upset winner, Coastal.
Golden Act went on to win 1979's Secretariat Stakes and Lawrence Realization Stakes, and in November's prestigious Canadian International Stakes on turf at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, Canada, he defeated an international field that included Trillion, a multiple stakes winner from France. At age four, Golden Act returned to racing, with his best results coming in two Grade I races, the 1980 Turf Classic Invitational Stakes where he finished second, and the Man o' War Stakes where he ran third.
Retired to stud duty, Golden Act sired a number of winners, notably Silver Circus, a winner of the Grade I Hollywood Derby, and the successful steeplechase runner, Almost Golden.
Golden Act died at the age of twenty-four on May 8, 2000 at Cardiff Stud Farm in Creston, California.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 - 4 nights
In the 19th century, the owner of the Vaulaville castle decided to move in the outbuildings to leave the main house to his newly-married son. She transformed these outbuildings into a second castle and furnished the upper level of the central part to a very high standard. Later, her son's wife put a vampire statue on the façade...
It is this accommodation of 180 sqm that we offer. It has a living room, dining room, fully equipped kitchen, 4 bedrooms, bathroom with toilets and shower room with toilets.
Annex: utility room and play room with table tennis. Courtyard and big garden with aboveground pool, trampoline and swing.
After a busy week in Paris, we wanted to relax and see the D-Day sites around Normandy. The spacious cottage of this 18th century chateau was the perfect spot. Our children enjoyed running all over the grounds and playing on the swings and slide. We also had nightly Ping-Pong tournaments. None of the D-Day sites were more than 30 min from the chateau.
Ms. Helen was a gracious and helpful hostess. The chateau has been in her family for generations and she is anxious to share that history while taking you on a tour of the buildings. It is a quiet, beautiful setting where our family enjoyed time together. Highly recommended for families with small or multiple children.
It is difficult to express what a special place this is. In planning a side trip from Paris to Normandy, I searched high and low for a location that would combine ease of access with the beauty of the French countryside. What I found was beyond my expectations - so much so that I booked the large house (can sleep 8 to 10 comfortably) for my family of three. The outbuilding is spacious, clean and very well-equipped (they truly thought of everything). While the house is gorgeously historic, the bathrooms are modern and the kitchen is up-to-date, which made for a very comfortable visit. The house has a beautiful library full of books (French, some English and beautiful coffee table books, many about Normandy), games and DVDs though to be honest, we never turned on the TV. The grounds are lovely and my son loved running around visiting the donkey, the cat and the horses on property. The house is proximate to Utah Beach and Omaha Beach, Caen and Bayeux. It is also reasonably close to Rouen and the lovely seaside towns of Honfleur, Trouville and Deauville. While there are no larger markets in the town, one can find everything in Bayeux which is a lovely town within a short driving distance. One of the highlights of the trip was meeting Marie-Helene and her husband, the proud custodians of this historic gem, who proved to be warm, caring and gracious hosts. They shared with us the property's proud history, as well as that of their family, which was very moving. We had such a special visit to Normandy and much of it had to do with the character of the house and its owners. We long to visit again.
This home away property was ideal for this family of 5 from the u.s. We loved the location 10 mins from Bayeix and surrounding towns in Normandy.
It was easy to see the notable historic areas related to D-Day events.
The spacious property allowed for needed "down time" in the early evenings. Kids could run around the property or chill out with extensive DVD selection.
Kitchen allowed for breakfasts and it was easy to prepare dinner at home as well.
The bathrooms were clean and adequate and our host was accessible and welcoming. There were many neighboring restaurants in towns nearby.
All in all it was a positive experience and I would recommend the property.
A delightful June week in Normandy! Six adults and 2 grandkids, ages 5 and 11 enjoyed absorbing French history In Marie's Outbuilding. Mimi and Papa slept in the large bedroom with four twin beds and our two daughters with husbands each had a large private bedroom. It is conveniently located about 6 minutes from Bayeux and 10 minutes from Port Au Bessie. The property is accurately described, and as long as you understand the building really is a few hundred years old with all that entails, you should not be disappointed. The kitchen is well appointed and each morning we would drink our coffee while exploring the grounds, then meet for breakfast in the large dining room to plan the day's activities. In the late afternoon the kids enjoyed the trampoline or visiting with the two resident donkeys. The "library" is fully stocked with hundreds of videos (many in English) and books (mostly French). Marie is a wonderful hostess, and her tour of the castle and recounting of her family history was a highlight. One evening she guided us to her favorite restaurant in Port Au Bessin. Rent this property to experience the French countryside, history and have convenient access to the D-Day Beaches and Normandy sites. Realize it is not a 4 or 5 star hotel property, and if it tried to be it would losel its charm and attraction.
We had a wonderful time at Vaulaville as a family of 5 adults and, as others have said, Marie-Helene was most gracious and helpful and her English is very good. She is particularly proud of her heritage (with good reason) and provided a tour of the chateau itself where she tells the story of her mother being a part of the French resistance and the medals that were awarded to her and her grandfather. Very moving. The outbuilding was spacious, clean, well-maintained and the kitchen had all we could ask for. What is does not have is a television connection (only for DVD use) but there are DVD's in English and also some books in English. However, wifi is included and it helped to keep up with the news. As has been mentioned, it is not a home for anyone who needs handicapped accessibility due to the spiral staircase, but my husband who has mobility issues was able to maneuver the staircase and the 5 stairs which lead to the kitchen and the rooms we used. The walk-in shower was particularly useful. It's in a great location for all we wanted to do and more. We spent two days touring the WWII battle sites (we could have spent longer), a day at Mont-Ste-Michel, an afternoon relaxing in Porte-en-Bessin and a day in Bayeux, all within reasonable distance. For touring the area, I would definitely recommend a GPS as the road signs don't tell you what direction you are heading in but only the town names. If they are not on your paper map, you are out of luck. We got lost several times even with the GPS and our 9-passenger van (needed because of luggage and a wheel chair) had to be driven down several single-lane roads which was dicey at times. (It was also an 'adventure' driving it through the arch at the castle but that was part of the fun!) English is spoken some by most people in stores and restaurants but knowing some French is obviously a benefit. A word of caution when touring: many places close for lunch which is what we encountered at Pointe du Hoc. As we were on a time schedule, we were not able to wait an hour to see the movie so I suggest planning accordingly. Most of the WWII touring sites have a movie which helps to explain the area you are visiting. Our family had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend staying at the Outbuilding of Vaulaville Castle.
This was a terrific place to experience. The location was terrific for exploring the WW II beaches (our goal) as well as surrounding area. Our 10 yr. old grandsons had a ball & loved the ping pong provided as well.
Marie Helene and her husband were very helpful and accommodating. The house tour at the end of our stay was a special treat. A very reasonable price for such a lovely setting and warmth of our hosts!!
