Calypso Villa is a 3 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom house featuring large interiors and spacious outdoor decks and patios. Perfectly situated on a multi-acre gated-property Calypso Villa offers our guests a beautiful and private setting with panoramic ocean views.
Calypso Villa is located in an exclusive residential area in the Valley, Virgin Gorda and is a 150-yard walk to Crook's Bay beach. The villa is ideally located less than 5 minutes drive from a dozen restaurants, the Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbor, the Virgin Gorda airport, all of the island's grocery stores and half-dozen world-class beaches including The Baths, Devils Bay, Spring Bay and Valley Trunk. Calypso's location is ideal for enjoying the very best of Virgin Gorda.
Calypso Villa was designed and situated to take advantage of the prevailing trade winds and to maximize the expansive views of the Caribbean sea. This thoughtful design provides numerous shady porches where guests can escape the midday heat. Alternatively, the pool deck is the ideal spot for fun in the sun.
Calypso Villa's living space is divided into two pavilions. Housed in the first pavilion is the villa's great room. This expansive space with soaring cathedral ceilings includes the villa's kitchen, living room, and dining room. The villa's great room features expansive walls of collapsible glass doors that maximize the views and allow for the very best in Caribbean indoor-outdoor living.
Calypso villa has a fully equipped chef's kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The house also has a Weber bbq and a charcoal grill. There are three options for dining including an indoor dining table with service for 8, a teak table, on the pool deck, with service for 8, and a smaller teak table, with service for 4, on the covered porch.
The villa's second pavilion houses three spacious bedrooms each with an ensuite bathroom. The master bedroom features a king sized bed, a private outdoor shower, a private sitting porch, cable tv, air conditioning, a mini fridge, and a ceiling fan.
Down a ½ flight of stairs and directly below the master bedroom are two additional bedrooms connected by a short interior hallway. The first bedroom on this level features a king sized bed, a private outdoor shower, a private sitting porch, cable tv, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan. The second guest bedroom features two queen sized beds and a foldaway cot. This bedroom can sleep two adults or up to four children and gives our guests lots of flexibility on sleeping arrangements. Like the other bedrooms, this one is equipped with air conditioning, a ceiling fan, and cable tv.
Calypso Villa is surrounded by lush gardens filled with flowers and tropical vegetation. The property contains numerous fruit trees including Lime, Mango and Papaya.
Additional amenities include beach chairs, yoga mats, board games, video games, a movie library, books, and bathrobes. It is easy to see why Calypso Villa has become one of the Virgin Gorda's favorite destinations.

Carol and I built this house after 20 years of visiting Virgin Gorda and the BVI. We kept coming back through the years and all the things we liked about Virgin Gorda never changed. No traffic lights, no high rise hotels, just beautiful beaches, beautiful views and friendly people. Our two boys, Sam and Will (now 14 and 12) always love to come to the house, except now we think they are starting to think about coming without us !!
Christi Maddox purchased this villa in 2009
The house was built on this location to capture the spectacular southern views of Round Rock, Fallen Jerusalem and Ginger Island together with the easterly trade winds that flow through the house, making the air conditioning a rare requirement. Virgin Gorda is not a resort - it is a real island where people live real lives and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Our villa was built to blend in to that culture - not to stand out. We hope you enjoy it and the beautiful island as much as we do.
Calypso Villa is perfectly located for a vacation. The house is in a private community tucked away from the tourists but just a few minutes away to all the beautiful beaches. We are also very convenient to the best grocery shopping and island restaurants for your nutritional needs. We have a wonderful concierge service that will meet you when you arrive on the island and introduce you to the villa. They will also provide you with any help you may request during your holiday.
Just got home from a weeklong stay at Calypso with two other couples and the depression is already beginning to set in. Thought I'd stave it off by going back to VRBO to relive the experience through the pictures, which don't even begin to do the property justice. You legitimately can't capture the view that this place has with a camera.
We had high expectations going in, and Calypso far exceeded all of them. The house was clearly very well thought out, from the layout of the pool/open kitchen/patio which afford absolutely stunning views of Crooks Bay and the Jerusalem Islands, to the finer details like the teak furniture, manual mahogany blinds, and luxurious bedding. There is simply nothing to not rave about. While we loved every minute we spent exploring the breathtaking islands, we equally loved our relaxing time at home where we were comfortably able to lounge, swim, read, grill and catch up with friends.
Irma was a great host - she picked us up at the airport with our rental car waiting and even stocked the fridge with beer and water. She made it clear that she was available at anytime to answer any questions or problems, and the one or two times we called her, she answered on the first ring. She even gave us a heads up the night before we left that Sunshine Air (or as the locals call it, "Sometimes Air") had changed our departure time the next morning - we wouldn't have known otherwise.
As a side note, yes, the property has scorpions, the same way that our house has spiders - they are tiny, rarely seen and completely harmless. It's Virgin Gorda, scorpions live there. I don't go to Maine and complain about the moose.
We'll definitely be going back.
I have traveled to many island getaways and resorts over the years and I can honestly say that Calypso Villa has by far been the best vacation I have ever taken. From waking up and having coffee on the open air terrace to laying by the pool at night looking at the amazing show of stars in the sky...every day was perfect in the BVIs. We did not need much from Howard, the property manager, because everything was provided for us in the Villa but when we had a question, Howard was prompt and extremely helpful. The property itself was beyond reproach. Every part was clean and well-maintained and had everything we could possibly need, i.e., towels, beach bags, pool toys, etc. The beach that is below the villa was a highlight of our trip too....we learned that we love to search for the beautiful sea glass found there. My family and I will definitely return to Calypso and we would highly recommend it to any and all of our friends and relatives. This island and Calypso Villa are at the top of my list for a PERFECT vacation spot.
My husband and I have been to Calypso Villa three times and we have brought our teenage son twice. Hands down, it is our most favorite vacation spot in the world! We travel frequently, and Calypso Villa in Virgin Gorda has it all. The accommodations are of utmost quality and comfort. There is nothing like waking up in the morning to cool ocean breezes and the relaxing sounds of waves on the beach. The three bedrooms are nicely situated to provide privacy for each room. The kitchen is equipped for a gourmet cook. The living areas, both inside and outside, are comfortable and have amazing views of the ocean. One of my favorite times of the day is early morning. I loved waking up, making coffee, curling up on a couch in the outside living area, and quietly soaking up the sights and sounds.
Of course, our time in and around the island have provided a lifetime of family memories. Some of our favorite activities have been visits to the most beautiful beaches; boating to Jost Van Dyke and swimming from the boat to Soggy Dollar Bar; taking the ferry to Anagada for fresh lobster; hiking through The Baths; and snorkeling in the clear waters of the BVI's. One of our son's favorite memories is the night we turned off all the lights by the pool and and watched the stars and told stories. The property managers, Howard and Irma, were extremely attentive and helpful. Calypso Villa in Virgin Gorda will see our family again in the future!!!
The Calypso Villa is a beautiful property with amazing views of the ocean & property gardens. The pleasant trade winds comforted us during our week long stay. The property was meticulously maintained & catered to all our daily needs. Property managers Howard & Irma organized & planned our Island hoping cruise, it was second to none! Our party of 6 give Calypso Villa the highest ratings and hope to return soon!
I have had the pleasure to stay at Calypso Villa on three occasions with each providing an incredible time for my family. Howard and Irma were both friendly and attentive on all of my visits providing some great local information on the island. When you walk up to the villa you truly feel like you are on your own island paradise. I can be fairly demanding at times but Howard was always there to take care of all of my questions with a great attitude. The Villa is very family friendly. The Villa was extremely clean and the grounds were so beautiful to look at. My family took advantage of all of the beaches on the island along with day trips to several islands. I would highly recommend this Villa to anyone. It is by far my favorite place to vacation in the world. I am so thankful that I was to find a place to bring my family and friends like Calypso Villa.
The property is lovely with professional gardens and the pool is wonderful. The kitchen was well stocked with all the comforts of home. Fridge was stocked with some supplies. The upper main bedroom has a balcony with great ocean view. This bedroom is air conditioned but the living areas are "open" (no walls but folding doors can be shut.) It was a very hot time of year during our visit and the air conditioner struggled. Asked the manager, Howard, for a fan but no luck. Found scorpions in and right outside the bedroom door each and every day during our stay. The housekeeper was even stung one day while we were there. I contacted Howard about the need for a fan and later about the scorpions but found him mostly unresponsive to issues during our stay. Howard told me the property was sprayed for bugs regularly and did not offer to address the scorpion issue at all. He also said he didn't have a fan available. Prior to arrival Howard was very helpful. However, once we arrived he didn't help with anything. The house and property are lovely although I could only recommend this property only under different manager and better pest control!

The date of the draft is next Tuesday, July 20th, and as of now there are no major names will be available for teams to select. USC receiver Mike Williams is trying to regain his eligibility and play for the Trojans next year while Maurice Clarett is still in limbo. Some of the names we know are available right now include former Central Florida linebacker Chad Mascoe.
Declared ineligible to play just prior to the start of the '03 season, Mascoe sat out last season after reportedly trying to gain entry into an NAIA school. Mascoe is a solid yet unspectacular run stuffing linebacker but a two down defender.
Pint sized running back Reynaldo Brathwaite, who led the BYU Cougars in rushing last season but was subsequently dismissed from the University is also available. The same is the case with Brathwaite's teammate, safety James Allen.
We had originally been led to believe that another former BYU Cougar, running back Marcus Whalen would also try and enter the supplemental draft. Whalen, a player who looked like a super prospect after his sophomore campaign, was recently beset with injuries and off-the-field problems, the latter leading to his dismissal from the BYU program. Whalen made an attempt to play at I-AA Southern Utah this season but was denied that opportunity by the NCAA.
The name of one available player making the rounds is Eastern Carolina's Ike Emodi, an athletic linebacker with solid playing speed. Defensive end Seante Williams of Jacksonville State and guard Mataio Toilolo from Montana State have also entered Tuesday's draft.
There is also word that a few more defenders from Conference USA could be eligible for the proceedings next week.
Expect full scouting reports on just about all the eligible played to be posted on this site before Tuesday's supplemental process.

The Vault has a thinner profile for reduced swing weight in the air, and more contact/feel with the water, along with a rockerline that naturally puts you underneath the board in a more centered position.

From Our Editors
The inspiration behind Alebrijes Mexican Bistro is the stuff of nightmares—Pedro Linares' nightmares, to be specific. At the age of 30, the Mexican artist fell deathly ill. As he lay in bed, unconscious, he dreamt of a strange world filled with brightly colored monsters—a donkey with butterfly wings and a rooster with the head of an eagle among others—all shouting "alebrijes, alebrijes, alebrijes!" When he awoke, he wanted to show his family and friends all that he had seen, so he replicated his first alebrije from brightly painted papier-mâché. To this day, his family still crafts these strange creatures to serve as unusual home accents.
Pedro Linares' monsters inspired Alebrijes Mexican Bistro's name, as well as its decor, which showcases brightly colored paintings of his nightmarish beasts. In 2012, the bistro also won the Lodi News Reader's Choice award for Best Mexican Restaurant, thanks to its gourmet burritos and regionally inspired dishes such as oaxaca mole, guanajuato bacon-wrapped prawns, and guacamole prepared in the style of Mexico City. The restaurant also infuses their own tequilas.

This image of a man carrying a bag of flour on his back – a job Nolan would have done often in the army – has been intricately abstracted. The bag, with its tiger logo, looms giant in the foreground, while in the background are two tiny figures, perched on the man's head. In many of these images the space is ambiguously arranged, sometimes giving a floating quality. His ability with colour is present in Flour Lumper: brilliant yellows, reds and blues leap out of the canvas. Nolan was very specific about the paint he preferred – he used Ripolin, a high-grade enamel paint, manufactured for use on houses or boats. He wrote to Sunday Reed, a key member of the Heide community which Nolan was a part of: 'Their (Ripolin) three best colours strongest, brightest, are lemon yellow, cobalt blue and the red'. He attributed almost magical properties to the paint, writing again to Sunday: 'Ripolin is like quicksilver. I can see us cooking it over a fire or leaving it out under the rosemary all night to see what secrets can be found in it'.

The Browns have extended a contract tender to inside linebacker Craig Robertson as an exclusive-rights free agent, a team spokesman confirmed.
Exclusive-rights free agents are players with fewer than three accrued seasons. They don't have negotiating power and must stay with a team if they're tendered.
So Robertson will return to the Browns for the 2014 season after serving as a full-time starter last year. According to the collective bargaining agreement, his salary for the upcoming season will be $570,000, and he'll become a restricted free agent next year.
Robertson, 26, started the 14 games in which he appeared last season and missed the other two with a sprained knee. Despite ex-Browns defensive coordinator Ray Horton's hopes that Robertson would prove to be his "ace in the hole," he struggled.
ProFootballFocus.com ranked Robertson 52nd out of 55 inside linebackers last season. The website's ratings placed him 48th against the run and a league-worst 52nd in coverage.
The Browns might try to acquire an upgrade over Robertson, but at the very least, he should provide depth. The team is in dire need of inside linebackers after cutting its other starter, defensive captain D'Qwell Jackson, last week after the two sides couldn't agree on a restructured contract. Jackson struck a deal today to join the Indianapolis Colts.
Last season, the 6-foot-1, 234-pound Robertson ranked fourth on the team with a career-high 89 tackles, including three sacks, to go along with an interception, three passes defensed, a forced fumble and a recovery.
After Robertson's career at the University of North Texas ended in 2010, he didn't join an NFL team until the Browns signed him to their practice squad for the final two weeks of the 2011 season. In 2012, he started three games and received ample playing time in sub packages before becoming a regular in the starting lineup last year.

Despite welcoming the consultation on dangerous dogs as "long overdue", the Pet Care Trust has warned that compulsory microchipping and insurance could unnecessarily burden and even criminalise those who cannot afford to comply.
Despite welcoming the Govenments consultation on dangerous dogs as "long overdue", the Pet Care Trust (PCT) has warned that compulsory microchipping and insurance could create unnecessary burdens on responsible pet owners and criminalise those who cannot afford to comply.
PCT chief executive Janet Nunn said that, although there were merits in insuring and microchipping dogs, making such measures compulsory would have the effect of penalising responsible pet owners and potentially criminalising those who are financially vulnerable.
She said: "The costs involved could be devastating for those in low income households, meaning that some would have to consider giving their pets up or having them put to sleep.
"Why should the behaviour of a small irresponsible minority mean that an older person living alone with just their harmless pet for companionship has to foot a bill for microchipping and insurance – or risk losing their pet? Many dog owners will comply with the proposed legislation whilst the irresponsible few will not and will thus avoid the costs involved. There has to be a better way of tackling the problem."
While the Pet Care Trust does support microchipping as the best way of identifying a dog, it does not believe that it should be made mandatory for all. In fact, the trust believes that the present legal requirement for dogs in public to wear a collar and tag showing the owner's name and address is perfectly serviceable for the vast majority of dogs and their owners.
Ms Nunn said: "While microchipping is desirable, it would be disproportionate to criminalise those who cannot afford to comply. We also fail to see the necessity of annual checks on microchipped dogs, which would make this even more costly for the pet owner.
"As for pet insurance, most responsible owners insure, but we shouldn't criminalise those who choose not to. Every dog owner has a duty of care to their animal and a responsibility to society, but it would be wrong to allow a few bad elements to hinder the benefits that 8,000,000 dog owners in the UK enjoy.
"Dogs are good for your health: research shows dog owners (especially pensioners) make fewer visits to the doctor, experience lower levels of stress and have lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels than non pet owners. There is also evidence to suggest that young people particularly benefit physically, emotionally and socially from living with dogs and learning about responsible pet ownership. These benefits to society (and the NHS) should not be overlooked."

MotoGP: Pedrosa On Pole At Sepang
Dani Pedrosa
Repsol Hondas Dani Pedrosa produced an incredible lap in Q2 to secure his first pole position since the Catalan GP in 2014 and 28th in MotoGP. The Spaniard has almost been the forgotten man at the Shell Malaysia Motorcycle Grand Prix after all of the attention that has been placed on Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo and Marc Marquez. He responded by blowing all of his rivals away by over four-tenths of a second to set a 1'59.053 in the hot and humid conditions, the fastest ever lap by a MotoGP bike at the Sepang International Circuit.
Dani Pedrosa
?Pedrosa had earlier topped FP4 and carried that form into Q2, setting the time on his very first run. Despite most riders trying a two-stop strategy to try and beat him, it was good enough for pole and was incredibly over seven-tenths under Marquezs 2014 pole record (159.791).??
His teammate Marquez made it a Repsol Honda 1-2 on the grid for tomorrows race but found himself 0.409s off the pace of Pedrosa. It is Marquezs 15th front row start of the season, although he was left frustrated after a huge moment during his second stint prevented him from making the most of his two-stop strategy.??
Marc Marquez
The man who leads the championship by a slender 11-point margin, Movistar Yamahas Valentino Rossi (+0.673s), left it late to secure the final front row spot at the expense of his teammate and title rival Jorge Lorenzo. Rossi had been in fourth as the checkered flag was waved, but managed to put in his best time on his last lap to leapfrog Lorenzo on the timing screens and relegate him to fourth. There had been some fun and games between Rossi and Marquez in FP3 & FP4 as Marquez appeared to be following the Italian, much to Rossis chagrin, but it didnt stop the Doctor from going on to secure only his fifth front row start of the season by just 0.011s from his teammate.??
Valentino Rossi
Jorge Lorenzo
Lorenzo (+0.684s) therefore will have to start from the front of the second row in what is his worst qualifying performance since Assen. The two-time MotoGP World Champion trails Rossi by 11 points in the standings and knows he ideally needs to win in Sepang and put as many riders in between he and his teammate as possible if he hopes to lift the title. Lorenzo had earlier crashed for only the third time in 2015 at turn 15 during FP4, but luckily for his title hopes he was unhurt. He ended up having to use his second bike for his first two runs in Q2 while his first bike was being repaired.??
Cal Cructhlow
LCR Hondas Cal Crutchlow (+1.146s) qualified as the leading Satellite rider in fifth. The Brit set his best time on his final flying lap to claim his seventh second row start of the year. Ducati Teams Andrea Iannone (+1.171s) completes the second row forSundays race as he once again showed good pace on the Ducati GP15. The Italian had been down in eighth on the combined times after FP3, but improved to finish just 0.025s behind Crutchlow.??
Andrea Iannone
His teammate Andrea Dovizioso will start from the head of the third row, ahead of the two men who made it through from Q1, Maverick Viñales (Team Suzuki Ecstar) and Bradley Smith (Monster Yamaha Tech 3) in eighth and ninth respectively.??
Andrea Dovisioso
Avintia Racings Hector Barbera completes the top ten after the Spaniard made it through to Q2 automatically for just the second time this season after Brno. He will start from the head of the fourth row as the leading Open class rider after his best qualifying performance of the year, ahead of the Espargaro brothers, with Aleix (Team Suzuki Ecstar) in eleventh after crashing late on and Pol (Monster Yamaha Tech 3) in twelfth.??
Hector Barbera
EG 0,0 Marc VDSs Brit rider Scott Redding will start from 15th, while Australian Jack Miller is the leading Open class Honda in 16th. American Nicky Hayden (Aspar MotoGP Team) will start from 19th as he out-qualified his Irish teammate Eugene Laverty in 22nd.

Kino Hime is a 15 year-old girl who just started her first year in a high school for voice actors (Seiyuu) called Hiiragi Academy. She dreams of becoming the voice of the main character in one of the most popular series in Japan, "Magic Fighter Lovely Blazers". The academy is the number one school which allows students to make their voice acting debuts and also includes other departments such as general education, sports, music, acting, and art.
But Hime's dream is hard to fulfill. Her voice is not really suitable for a voice actress and her new classmate Kudou Senri doesn't waste time in pointing that out. Will Hime prove everybody, especially Senri, what she is capable of despite the first appearance?

Hyderabad: The incessant rain was absent for Jagan's meeting. The grim situation in the state and flash floods did not stop people thronging. Any way the meeting was a grand success.
Jagan is expecting 30 MP seats in coming elections. May be 25 from Seemandhra and 5 from Hyderabad. He openly declared support to the party which will keep the state united. He asked his party men to conquer the Delhi with maximum seats. He appealed the leaders of different states, who have been facing separatist movements. He warned them not to be apathetic in this crisis. He quoted German theologian Martin Niemoller to gain their support.
If his estimations proved right to some extent, he might get 20-25 MP seats. This is enough for him to play a big role in national politics. His party is already heading in Seemandhra with Unites Slogan. He nullified the allegations of his rival parties. He vehemently criticized Sonia and kept his opponents shut for a while. Lagadapati's adopted son theory becomes invalid in this situation. People may stop believing that there is a secret nexus between YCP and Congress.
All these are the indications for Jagan's victory. Permission for the meeting was denied by the police. The High court sanctioned permission with some conditions. Party's senior members forced Jagan to postpone the meeting or cancel it. But the adamant Jagan did not heed them.
The huge turnout was more than the expectation. People from the Telangana districts like Medak, Mahaboob Nagar, Rangareddy and Hyderabad were also present in good number.
With the success of this meeting, he gained upper hand in Seemandhra over his rivals and made his party's presence felt in some regions of Telangana.
If he could win as per his expectations, it is sure that he will become a beacon for united activists and will become a key player and grab the power!

What is Reddit's Definition of "Personal Info"?
Reddit has very few hard and fast rules, and counts freedom of speech among its core values. If you go to reddit.com/rules, you'll see a five point list that all seems pretty reasonable:
- Don't spam.
- Don't ask for votes or engage in vote manipulation.
- Don't post personal information.
- No child pornography or sexually suggestive content featuring minors.
- Don't break the site or do anything that interferes with normal use of the site.
It's that third rule I'm curious about - don't post personal information. While several subreddits have been deleting threads devoted to disseminating the photos from this week's massive leak of nude celeb photos, reddit actually has an entire subreddit devoted to poring over, scrutinizing, and sharing these images. This has me wondering what constitutes "personal information" on reddit.
This subreddit (not linked for obvious reasons) isn't just reposts of these images, it's people "cleaning them up in photoshop," trying to match images that don't feature the subject's faces to other images of celebrities, and just general backpatting and goofing around. Remember, this is the same site that was so incensed by a Gawker article describing the creepy behavior of a reddit user that it temporarily banned all links to Gawker sites, a ban which dozens of subreddits still have in place.
I had always heard that the shorthand of reddit was simply "no doxing." Now, in modern parlance, doxing is essentially the posting of real names, addresses, phone numbers, etc, of people operating pseudonymously on the internet. But the root is "releasing the docs" or sensitive documents. I would imagine there are few documents more sensitive to the people who have been victimized than these photos.
I have always thought of reddit as being sort of like 4Chan with a hall monitor. Yeah, the kids are crazy, but there is generally someone who can put the worst folks on time out. Which is why it's surprising to me that it has been so cavalier about these photos. Hell, even 4Chan is blocking some of the images (though it's due to a copyright claim by Jennifer Lawrence rather than actual human decency). I sent an email to reddit's press folks asking where the site draws the line on what constitutes "personal info," but I haven't heard back. I'll update this article if I do.

Woman selling Bibles attempts armed robbery
FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. - A woman claiming to sell children's Bibles was a front for a violent group of robbers, according to Forsyth County deputies.
The victim and her husband spent the day talking to investigators but also shared their story with Channel 2's Tom Regan.
Debbie Heard said she opened the door Tuesday afternoon and the alleged saleswoman and men wearing hoodies forced their way into her Tamiami Trail home, near Cumming,
"She showed me those Bible story books and I was really thinking, 'It would be great to have a new set for my grandchildren,'" she said.
The men bolted in the door and took her downstairs and demanded the combination for her safe, Heard told Regan.
"They had a gun. Smacked me around, beat my face up, beat my arms up," she said. "They started hitting me, pushed the gun into my head and ripped my clothes."
She called her son to get the combination.
"I said there's people here holding me at gunpoint and they're going to kill me if you don't tell me," Heard said.
She called her husband, who was out of state on business, and he gave her the combination.
"They never would get on the phone with me and when I hung up, I really thought I would never see her again," Kim Heard said.
Moments later the sound of sirens scared off the attackers who left with nothing. Her son had called 911.
"The Forsyth County police saved my wife. They saved my wife," Kim Heard said.
"It's very upsetting people would use God as a hoax to get into somebody's home. It really is," Debbie Heard said.
The assailants left the home in a late model Toyota Camry, white or pearl in color, before deputies arrived.
The woman is described as having shoulder-length blonde hair, blue eyes and was 5 feet 2 inches tall, according to police.
Anyone with information about the suspects is asked to contact Detective M. Christian at 678-513-5920 during normal business hours or if calling after hours, the dispatch center at 770-781-3087.

Steve Burnside
Voiced by Bill Houston (2000) and Sam Riegel (2009)
- "I'm glad that I met you ... I... I love you... Claire..."
- An Axe to Grind: His Weapon of Choice when he's a giant monster.
- Badass Normal
- Big Damn Heroes: He has more than one scene of being this.
- Bishounen: Compared to other male characters he is much younger.
- Bling-Bling-BANG!: He first takes the Gold Lugers.
- Did Not Get the Girl: On account of a nasty case of viral mutation followed by death.
- Does This Remind You of Anything?:In Code: Veronica, Steve has a barcode tattoo on his left forearm that bears a lot of similarities to a Nazi concentration camp tattoo, a tattoo that is strongly implied to have been gotten due to his status as a prisoner on Alexia's Antarctica fortress.
- Dual Wielding
- Dying Declaration of Love: "I-I'm glad that I met you. I-I love you...Claire." In The Darkside Chronicles, he doesn't get past "love".
- Emo Teen: Though it's not unjustified. If you need specifics, his dad worked for Umbrella and became a mole. Umbrella found out, killed his mom and imprisoned both his dad and himself. Then there's the viral outbreak, he has to kill his own dad to prevent him from chomping on Claire...
- FaceMonster Turn: See Tragic Monster below.
- Fiery Redhead
- Go Out with a Smile
- Guns Akimbo: First his Lugers, then his machine guns. If he weren't Dual Wielding... he probably wouldn't be Steve.
- Hot-Blooded
- I'm Cold... So Cold...: Inverted. He comments that Claire is warm.
- Improbable Age: He's only seventeen, yet can fly a cargo plane surprisingly well.
- The Internet is for Porn: In The Darkside Chronicles, he mentions that the guards at Rockfort Island had computers that were used for games and porn.
- Lampshade Hanging: Again in The Darkside Chronicles, he has a tendancy to lampshade what's going on.
- Magic Pants: Averted in Code: Veronica and played straight in The Darkside Chronicles, of the everything-but-a-small-portion-of-the-pants-ripping variety.
- No Celebrities Were Harmed: Looked nearly identical to Leonardo DiCaprio from Titanic (1997) in the original release. It was so blatant that his hair was changed for the PS2 remake and every incarnation that's appeared since then as a result.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning/Supernatural Gold Eyes/Hellish Pupils: As a monster, he has slitted pupils, gold around the pupils, and the rest of his eyes are red.
- Staking the Loved One: He is forced to kill his father after the latter was turned into a zombie before he could chomp Claire.
- Stepford Smiler: Type A.
- Tragic Monster: In the second half of the game, he's captured by Alexia and mutated. He rages as a monster for a short time before he turns back and dies.
Alfred Ashford
Voiced by: Peter Oldring (2000) and Richard Cansino (2009)
Alexia's twin brother who had been running their estate and facilities on Rockfort Island in her place. Notably rather obsessed with his sister, having practically worshipped her ever since they were children, fully acknowledging her as the most intelligent of the two, and missed her for fifteen years.
- Aristocrats Are Evil
- Attractive Bent-Gender: When he's dressed as Alexia. This is more evident in The Darkside Chronicles. While Code: Veronica uses Alexia's character model, the former game uses a unique model◊.
- Axe-Crazy
- Brother-Sister Incest/Twincest: Really, just ask anyone who's played Code: Veronica. The novelization makes Alfred's sexual feelings for Alexia far more obvious.
- Cold Sniper: Sort of, he is still childish and insane, rather than the stoic personality a cold sniper usually has. However, he is definitely not a friendly sniper, as he enjoys trying to shoot Claire and doesn't really like her.
- Cloning Blues
- Creepy Twins: With Alexia.
- The Dandy
- Disc One Final Boss
- The Dragon
- Enfante Terrible: In the backstory.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He truly loves his sister. To a disturbing degree.
- Evil Brit
- Evil Is Hammy
- Evil Genius: Although he has a lower genius level than that of his sister.
- Go Mad from the Isolation: Let's just say that spending fifteen years as the only one left in the family didn't go so well for him.
- Giggling Villain: Infamously.
- The Heavy: To his sister's Big Bad.
- Insane Equals Violent
- Large Ham
- Morality Pet: Well, not a morality pet whatsoever so much as a humanity pet to Alexia. Hell, the reason she blows up Claire and Steve's snowmobile and has the latter turn Tragic Monster is to avenge his death.
- Noblewoman's Laugh: As Alexia and otherwise, almost impressively.
- Not-So-Harmless Villain: The Darkside Chronicles puts his crimes and insanity in a much darker light.
- Psychopathic Manchild: It's been stated that it's something he and his sister share, but The Darkside Chronicles really goes to town displaying his.
- Self-Made Orphan: Used his father as a guinea pig.
- Siblings in Crime
- Sissy Villain
- Sniper Rifle: His weapon of choice, though he's a really, really bad shot.
- Split Personality: Ever since Alexia left, it appeared he'd taken to dressing in her clothes and talking to himself as her in the mirror.
- Undying Loyalty: To Alexia.
- The Unfavorite: For being born without his sister's ungodly intellectual capacity. It really isn't brought up, however, except as one of a few reasons the twins used their father as a guinea pig.
- Villainous Crossdresser: That picture of Alexia below? That's actually him.
Alexia Ashford
Voiced by: Leila Johnson (2000) and Karen Strassman (2009)
A noblewoman descended from one of Umbrella's founders, a genius scientist since at least the age of ten, and the prominent antagonist of Code: Veronica despite having been, as far as anyone knows, dead as of fifteen years before the game took place. She wasn't. Rather, she was in cryogenic sleep to incubate the specially-altered strain of the T-Veronica virus she injected herself with when she was twelve to become a god.
- Adaptational Villainy: In The Darkside Chronicles, she's even more evil, and lacks the sympathetic qualities she had in Code: Veronica.
- A God Am I: Especially in the novelization.
- Aristocrats Are Evil
- Big Bad: Of Code: Veronica.
- Big Creepy-Crawlies: Her final form.
- Bloody Murder: Her blood bursts into flames when she throws it at people.
- Child Prodigy: Hired by Umbrella at ten.
- Cloning Blues: She was created from a piece of skin from her ancestor. She did not take it well when she learned this.
- Combat Tentacles
- Creepy Twins/Half-Identical Twins: Her and her brother Alfred.
- Dark Action Girl: Probably the single most physically capable female antagonist in the series, throwing down with Albert Wesker, and coming damned close to taking Chris and Claire with her.
- Enfante Terrible: In the backstory.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Her love for her brother, as twisted as it is, is the only spark of humanity she still possesses after going mad from the revelation. Averted in Darkside Chronicles, where she kills him in cold blood because he didn't wake her up on time.
- Evil Brit
- Evil Genius: And how.
- Evil Is Hammy
- Evil Laugh/Giggling Villain/Noblewoman's Laugh: She certainly uses less breath on speaking than she does on laughing.
- Evilutionary Biologist
- Expy: Alexia's multiple forms borrow heavily from Parasite Eve, particularly her opera theme music and pyrotechnic abilities. Her metallic hide is also similar to Witchblade.
- Eye Awaken: There's a nice nod to RE2 when Alexia picks herself back up after Chris defeats her the first time, just like Mr. X.
- Faking the Dead
- Final Boss
- Full-Frontal Assault: In her first One-Winged Angel form, she is completely naked◊, although due to her mutations, nothing explicit is shown.
- Go Mad from the Revelation: How much sanity she actually had to begin with is questionable, as she was seen watching Alfred kill a dragonfly as a kid, but she at least had some integrity. However, after learning about the nature of her birth, let's just say that she really went off the deep end a'la Sephiroth.
- Large Ham
- Mad Scientist
- Mook Maker: During her second One-Winged Angel form, she births small poisonous insectoid enemies to attack Chris.
- One-Winged Angel: Three times. First her skin sloughs off, then she fuses with one of the birthing pods, and finally she becomes some sort of twisted dragonfly monster.
- Psychopathic Manchild: Her and Alfred alike. Probably justified in both cases. He's insane and she has been frozen ever since she was twelve. Still, their house is full of what must be mementos from their childhood (doll collections, a merry-go-round, music boxes, and a home movie of them slowly pulling the wings off of a dragonfly and watching it die...)
- Self-Made Orphan: Used her father as a guinea pig.
- Siblings in Crime
- Silent Antagonist: She speaks a few lines when she finally appears before Chris, Claire, and Wesker, but once she mutates, she goes completely quiet. She doesn't even make any grunts or the like.
- The Sociopath: Almost fits this, as she likes Alfred. Anyone else, she doesn't give a shit about. She even experimented on her father.
- Stronger Sibling: To Alfred, especially in terms of intelligence.
- Twincest: Without actually saying it.
Rodrigo Juan Raval
Voiced by: Martin Roach (2000)
An Umbrella security agent responsible for capturing Claire and having her imprisoned on Rockfort Island.
- Badass Normal: Although he's been critically wounded by HCF troops, Rodrigo is one of the only Umbrella personnel still alive on the island by the time the game begins.
- Cruel and Unusual Death: Swallowed whole by the Gulp Worm and, if you decide to kill the monster, he's thrown back up after being partially digested by it. Not at all a pleasant way to go.
- Last of His Kind: You don't discover this about him until after he dies where he is apparently the last surviving member of his family and with him gone, there's no one left in the bloodline.
- Pet the Dog: He releases Claire from her cell, deciding that if she has no hope of escape anyway, she may as well die free. Claire later returns the favor by bringing him another bottle of hemostat to staunch his bleeding.
- Punch Clock Villain: He's a jailer for Umbrella, but personally he's quite a nice guy.
Alexander Ashford/Nosferatu
Voiced by: JB Blanc (2009)The son of Edward Ashford and father of Alexia and Alfred. Used by them a guinea pig for the T-Veronica virus turning him into the monster Nosferatu.
- Mad Scientist: He created Alexia and Alfred from a piece of Veronica Ashford. However he was not as smart as his father or his children.
- Psycho Prototype: He was the first person infected by the T-Veronica virus, both so Alexia could have revenge of her father, and to see what would happen if a human was infected by the T-Veronica virus.
- Tragic Monster: After his children found out how he created them, Alexia used him as a guinea pig for her T-Veronica virus turning him into the monster Nosferatu.
Edward Ashford
One of the three founders of Umbrella along with Ozwell E. Spencer and Dr. James Marcus, mentioned in the files and depicted in a portrait in the Ashford Mansion.
- Aristocrats Are Evil: Subverted, he was the only founder of Umbrella who was actually a good guy.
- Honest Corporate Executive: Implied, since he wanted Umbrella to be a normal pharmaceutical company.
- Minor Major Character: He's one of the founders of Umbrella (the antagonist, Bigger Bad or Greater-Scope Villain of a lot of games of the serie). His two co-founders play important roles. Not him, who just receives a few passing mentions. Justified since he's dead when the games begin.
- Only Sane Man: Unlike Spencer or Marcus, Ashford was actually wanting to use the Progenitor Virus for actual medical purposes. Files indicate he actually wanted Umbrella to be just an ordinary pharmaceutical company and not an insane conspiracy that makes bioweapons.
- Posthumous Character: By the game's beginning, Edward Ashford has been dead for years, having accidentally died under mysterious circumstances (with the implication that his son Alexander took the blame for the accident, with the further implication that Ozwell Spencer may have been the one really responsible)
- Token Good Teammate: For the founders of Umbrella.

Even though caring the sleep for the newborn baby is not too challenge many parents still frequently make mistakes which lead to the sleep quality of the baby reduces.
The baby's sleep has an important role in the comprehensive development of the constitution and intelligence. The best baby swing for small spaces is choosing of many parents today. When the baby sleeps enough, he/she will feel comfortable, funny and developed better. Consequently, fathers and mothers ought to consider these below mistakes in order to avoid making as soon as you can.
- Giving the baby sleep day and stay the night
Your baby does not sleep through the night as other children, does he/she? You need to help him/her to distinguish the different between day and night. In the day, the infant can play, but the night needs to have to sleep. You should also keep the baby's room that is full of light during the day; especially, there are short naps. In the evening, you ought to turn off all the lights so that the baby knows that he/she needs to sleep.
Since changing diapers and feeding become easy, many parents often turn on the light all night. This one will affect the health of the newborn baby. Continue reading

Comic Book Legends Revealed #329
Welcome to the three hundredth and twenty-ninth in a series of examinations of comic book legends and whether they are true or false. This week, learn about the Donald Duck comic book story that Disney wouldn't let you see! Discover what would have been the ending of the 1990s Spider-Man cartoon series! And marvel at what comic book creator coined the famous Lone Ranger/Tonto joke, "what you mean…we?"
Click here for an archive of the previous three hundred and twenty-seven.
Let's begin!
COMIC LEGEND: E. Nelson Bridwell coined the famous Lone Ranger/Tonto joke "what you mean…we"?
STATUS: Apparently True
A very popular joke during the 1960s involved the Lone Ranger and Tonto. The joke goes as follows (this is a quote):
The Lone Ranger and Tonto are watching a horde of Indian braves bear down on them in full battle fury. "Looks like we're in trouble, Tonto," says the Lone Ranger to his pal. "What you mean 'we,' white man?," Tonto responds.
It has become very popular in recent years as a rhetorical device for essay writers who wish to write about situations where someone takes for granted that someone is his/her ally.
And amazingly enough, this joke appears to have been coined by a classic Silver Age comic book creator.
However, you'd be hard pressed to imagine WHICH one, as it was written by E. Nelson Bridwell, longtime assistant editor to Mort Weisinger at DC Comics! Before Bridwell went to work for DC (where he helped introduce a number of innovations when it came to the world of comic book continuity), he wrote gags for Mad Magazine. And the Lone Ranger joke was one of them.
Reader Matt L. wrote in to ask me if this story was true. I've seen it before (our own Greg Hatcher mentioned it in a piece a few years back), but I've never looked into it.
As it turns out, in 1958's Mad #38, Bridwell did a bit on things you'll never see on various popular TV series. Joe Orlando did the artwork.
Here is the one for the Lone Ranger…
I've examined this pretty heavily (and I've seen other people at etymology sites do so, as well) and I have yet to find any other published version of this joke anywhere else that predate 1958. Mad certainly was a very popular magazine at the time, so the notion of the joke becoming so prolific from the pages of Mad is not so hard to believe. That said, I would not be shocked at all if the joke predated Bridwell's usage. Still, since I can't find any other published reference to it that predates Bridwell's, I think it is fair to give him the credit. I also asked Mark Waid (who knew Bridwell late in Bridwell's life when Waid was just starting in comics) what he thought about it, and he said he believed that it was Bridwell's gag, noting that Bridwell was a gifted gag writer. So if it is good enough for Mark Waid, who am I to disagree?
Thanks to Matt L. for the suggestion! Thanks to Mark Waid for his thoughts and a big shout out to Greg Hatcher for his previous mention of this fact!
COMIC LEGEND: Disney had another artist change the ending of a Carl Barks story because the story ended with Donald as an arsonist.
STATUS: True
In 1945's Four Color Comics #108, Carl Barks wrote and drew an enjoyable tale called "The Firebug."
After Donald becomes an arsonist, someone else starts stealing his unique fires (Donald can make t-shaped fires, square fires, etc.). A fire cop keeps running into Donald until Donald and his nephews discover that the arson cop is an impostor who has been stealing Donald's fire ideas!
As you can see, the story ends as a dream. The last two panels, however, were produced by another comic book artist, Carl Buettner. As Barks explains it, "The editors objected to the last couple of panels of that story because I had Donald set fire to the judge's wastebasket. [It] accidently burned down the courthouse, and he wound up in jail. Western couldn't have a Disney character looking out from behind bars in the final panel of the story, so they changed the ending. They didn't usually redraw my art like that; the editors would often suggest that the artist do the changing himself. But these two panels would have been done by one of the staff artists, either Carl Buettner or Tom McKimson." Later research shows that it was almost certainly Bruettner.
Sadly, Barks' original panels appear to be lost for good.
What is so strange about Disney's decision is that just a year earlier, in Walt Disney Comics and Stories #50, Bruettner had a comic that ended like this…
Weird, no?
Thanks to Anthony Durrant for the suggestion for this piece! Thanks to the great Daniël van Eijmeren for the Barks quote!
COMIC LEGEND: Had the 1990s Spider-Man Animated Series continued, Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson would have gotten married.
STATUS: False
Reader Andy K. wrote in with this one, and I'm afraid to say, Andy, that it was a bit of a case of the telephone game, or in other words, two different stories got mixed together.
The Spider-Man animated series during the 1990s was popular, despite all the seemingly silly rules that story editor John Semper had to deal with (like "no blood," "no vampires," etc.). The series had a bit of a premature ending, though, as it finished while Peter Parker's girlfriend, Mary Jane Watson, was still trapped in limbo (she ended up there because the show could not have characters die, so in their version of the death of Gwen Stacy, Mary Jane was knocked into "limbo").
Peter's friend Madame Web promised him that he would eventually find her, but we never see it resolved (the show was still doing well in the ratings, but the economics of animated series have always been strange – producers are typically more willing to end earlier than expected and try to launch a new series). When a sequel series came out a little while later called Spider-Man Unlimited, Peter and Mary Jane are reunited and are married. Well, Andy told me they were married – if you look at the actual scene in the episode it is not clear, and honestly, I think I would tend towards "not married."
However, Andy's take (that they are married in Unlimited) matches the popular belief, and that led to a rumor that had Semper been able to do another season of Spider-Man, he would have had Peter rescue Mary Jane and they would have gotten married (just like Peter planned to do in a fifth season episode where it is revealed that the Mary Jane Peter was marrying was a clone).
However, Semper set the record straight in a great interview with DRG4 where he explained his actual plans for the next season of the show (a season that never came). It would involve Spider-Man entering limbo to go find Mary Jane:
I wanted to do a mini-series in which he would end up chasing Mary Jane through the past, trying to find her. Not a big thing, just four or five episodes. I thought it'd be interesting to see Spidey deal with certain historic moments in time {one place would be Victorian England during the time of Jack the Ripper, being portrayed by the real Carnage}, not just the nation's history, but his own personal life, too. And somehow, this would lead back to the present. I had more specific ideas, but that's where it was headed. But then again, I really didn't want to go any further. Everything had been wrapped up neatly. All the important stuff…Spidey now liked himself, he'd met his creator and said, "You know what, I beyond you now…I've grown." That's really the end of Peter Parker's story. He'd saved all reality. You can't really top that. If we had continued, I'd just have been doing it for the money. My real saga was done.
In a separate interview with Marvel Animation Age, Semper's views on the idea of the characters marrying was made clear:
Marvel Animation Age: Why was the decision made to make Mary Jane a water clone towards the end of the series? When Turning Point was originally conceived, did you actually intend to bring her back?
Semper: It was a way for us to do the marriage of Peter and M.J. without having it actually stick. I mean, Peter can't ever get the girl for real, now, can he? And, yes, I always intended to bring the real M.J. back.
So no, the events of Spider-Man Unlimited had no ties to Semper's original plans, Andy! Thanks for the question!
