24 tips on cheap hotel stays, including...
Staying in the UK or want a secret-hotel bargain? This guide focuses on worldwide hotels – while some tips apply to the UK too, also see the dedicated UK Hotels guide. Plus we've a guide on how to play detective and Uncover Secret Hotels.
Do your research first to pick the right hotel
Whether you want to spend a few nights in luxury, fancy a cosy boutique hotel or just want a basic room as cheap as chips, the trick is to pick the right hotel first, within your budget, then try to get it for the best price possible. You might already have a particular hotel in mind, but if not, it's important to do your homework.
When picking your hotel there are a couple of things to watch out for:
Don't trust the star system
Amenities determine star ratings, not quality – a 5* rating is often based on a pool, big foyer and conference facilities, not how nice the place is.
As there's no universal worldwide standard, stars may be given by governments, review organisations or even the hotel itself, so treat them with a big pinch of salt. See a full guide to what stars mean.
Check TripAdvisor
A worldwide institution, TripAdvisor* lists detailed reviews and customer ratings for hotels by past guests.
However, always remember anyone can pen a review. Some hoteliers sign up and post glowing reports of their own hotels.
Once you've settled on a hotel – or a shortlist of several – check out the direct price on its website, but don't book yet. This will give you a good benchmark for the going rate – a useful starting point if you want to haggle later on too. It's also a good way to find out if the hotel's offering any special deals for those who do book direct.
Comparison sites usually give the best price
Check the top comparison sites to see who's selling it cheapest – the same room can be sold at vastly different prices. Here are our three top pick sites:
The cheapest tends to be Trivago* – it covers over 200 different brokers.
To broaden your search, try TravelSupermarket*.
Popular review site TripAdvisor* lets you read reviews and do quick comparisons.
While it's not a comparison site, it's also worth checking Hotels.com* for extra discounts, free stays and member-only prices.
Once you've found the best comparison site price, call the hotel to see if it'll beat it – sometimes they offer direct bookers early booking promos or three-for-two night deals that comparison sites miss.
It's all very well us saying it, but to see how it works in reality, and how much you could save, here are a few successes from those at MSE Towers:
I booked five nights for two people in a five-star hotel in Zanzibar, all inclusive, for Ł714 total via Trivago. That's less than half the Ł1,620 price booking direct. - MSE Nick
I got seven nights in a four-star hotel on the coast near Rome for Ł565 total, including breakfast. That saved over Ł100 compared to booking direct, and I got 13% cashback on it too. - MSE Sally
Beware of hidden taxes and charges
Some brokers hide the true cost of a stay until the final booking page. In some cases, the first time you'll find out the true figure is at the hotel.
Many countries charge a Ł10-Ł30 per day room tax, which isn't always clearly indicated. Even if a website says that taxes at a particular percentage rate apply on top of the price displayed, you may not find out the actual cost until later. This can mean that some sites unfairly come up cheapest when you're searching.
Even comparison sites sometimes show the price minus taxes, so always click through to check the final price before choosing. See Revealed: Hidden hotel charges.
Also watch out for rooms 'on request'
If a site says it has rooms 'on request', this means it has only asked for rooms from the hotel – there may actually not be a room available. Be careful not to go for one of these and lose a firm cheap deal elsewhere.
Play detective and uncover 'secret' hotel bargains
With a bit of detective work, mega bargains are available from sites selling 'secret hotel' rooms. Here, you're just told a star level and rough location – only once you've paid do you find out the hotel's name. This means rock-bottom prices, as hotels needn't worry about losing trade from those who go to them directly.
You can never be 100% sure which hotel you'll be staying at before you book, so these sites aren't for those desperate to stay at a particular place. But there are usually sneaky ways to discover the hotels' identities to see if it's worth it.
The top sites which do this include Lastminute.com* and Hotwire for UK and worldwide deals, and the bidding site Priceline*. For a full how-to and more details, see our Uncovering Secret Hotels guide.
The 're-book your hotel' trick – if you book with free cancellation, you can save if the price drops
Whether you've booked via a travel agent or direct with the hotel, often you'll find you're able to cancel for free up to a certain point, which is typically around 24-48 hours before your stay starts.
If you book or have booked a room, you can save by cancelling if the price drops after you've booked. Simply cancel the original booking, then rebook at the cheaper price. Often this can work even with the same site you originally booked with.
Most booking sites and hotel websites give you a non-refundable and a free cancellation option for each room type. Non-refundable rooms tend to be cheaper, so you'll need to weigh up if paying more for free cancellation is worth it.
Here's some inspiration to show it can work:
I saved Ł200 when the price dropped two days before travel! - Alison, via Twitter
Even if cancelling your booking isn't free, it's worth weighing up the cancellation charge against how much the price has dropped – if the charge is small you could still be quids in.
How to check if there's free cancellation
If it's not clear, check the terms and conditions - it should clarify your cancellation rights there, before you book. It's not likely to be free cancellation if you're asked to pay upfront, though it depends what site you book through.
If you can't see a free cancellation room in the options for the hotel you want, call it up and check.
A few things to watch out for
Although this can save Ł100s, it's not a foolproof system, so:
- Check your booking for any hidden terms and conditions – make sure that cancelling really is free, and there aren't any extra charges.
- Bear in mind some sites make you pay in full when booking, even if you can cancel penalty-free. If so, you'll need to factor in if you can afford to re-book, given the refund from the original booking may take days or even weeks to come through.
- Be aware that if you booked in a currency other than sterling, the value of your refund could be less – or more – due to currency fluctuations.

Use cashback sites for up to 13% back
Cashback websites pay you when you click through via them to spend. In essence, it's nothing more than an extra click before you get to where you want.
With travel, it can shave Ł100s off the cost of your holiday – especially when it comes to hotels. Although rates vary, Topcashback* and Quidco* – the two biggest cashback sites – pay up to 12% when booking hotels through particular sites. For example, at the time of writing, booking through Hotels.com via Quidco gives you 12% cashback.
Of course, we're not saying book via a certain site because the cashback is high – always do a comparison and ensure you couldn't get a cheaper price overall elsewhere. And remember too cashback's not guaranteed, so think of it as a bonus – see our Top Cashback Sites guide for more info.
Sign up for free to short-term hotel sales sites
Special members-only websites such as Conde Nast Traveller, Secret Escapes and Travelzoo* offer big but short-lived discounts on luxury hotels worldwide. It's free to sign up – you just need to log in to see what's available.
For example, we found an executive king room at the Mövenpick Ibn Battuta Gate Hotel, Dubai for Ł93/night with Secret Escapes, compared with Ł145/night when booked directly. The Chateau Monfort in Milan was Ł78/night through the site and Ł290/night booked directly.
Hotel companies and travel brokers also often offer short-term sales and these can be worth looking at. But always do your own independent research to see if you're really getting a good deal, or if you can beat it elsewhere.
Register for websites' email alerts to bag extra discounts – and make sure you log in
One way to secure an added discount is to sign up for different sites' email alerts. Priceline*, for example, sends out 15% blanket discount codes via email, and many others do similar – if you can, sign up to a few. If you get tired of the emails after you've booked, you can always unsubscribe when you don't need to look for a hotel and re-subscribe when you do.
It can also help to have an account with the site you're using as some offer exclusive deals or discounts just for registered users. Booking.com*, Expedia*, Hotels.com* and Venere.com* are among those to do this – make sure you log in when searching.
Scout around for special opening rates
New hotels often offer special rates to drum up custom. Typically this can be at least 50% off or even complimentary stays. To find new hotel openings, scour industry publications such as Hotel News Resource and Hotel Designs – these cover news worldwide.
It's also worth keeping an eye on forum threads and social media for alerts on opening rate discounts. You can even try the brazen approach and just call up the hotel to ask about about special rates – a bit of sweet talk goes a long way.
Register with loyalty schemes for mates' rates
Many hotel chains have free-to-join loyalty schemes – some of the big ones include Best Western Rewards, Hilton HHonors*, Intercontinental Hotels Group Rewards Club* and Marriott Rewards. These loyalty schemes are worth joining not so much for the free stays – which can take ages to clock up – but for the special offers they - send to members.
Plus, if you call the hotel and ask for a discount or an upgrade when you check in, you're always more likely to get one as a 'preferred guest'.
Going in a group? Villas, apartments and Airbnb can undercut hotels
If you're travelling with extended family or a gaggle of friends, cottages, villas and apartments can massively undercut similar quality hotels – and the bigger the group, the bigger the potential saving.
It's usually self-catering, and you'll have to do your own cleaning and washing up. But if you want space, privacy, a kitchen, washing machine and more, it can be a winner. And with the rise in popularity of sites such as Airbnb, it's now easier than ever to find rooms or properties for your party abroad.
For example, we found a three-bedroom villa in Malaga priced at Ł352 for a week's stay in mid-August, compared with a nearby hotel costing Ł1,420.
We've more on this in our Cheap Holiday Rentals guide, including how to score discounts booking directly with owners. And for inspiration:
We've stayed at wonderful places in Europe and the Caribbean using rental sites and have always been delighted. It's way more cost-effective than hotels.
Barbecues on relaxing evenings with glasses of wine, jump in the pool anytime, do washing as you go. Loads of privacy and space to enjoy yourselves as a family... I love it.

Consider worldwide hostels – dirt-cheap, not dirty
Hostels can offer massive savings over hotels. While a few may be dodgy, many are clean and friendly, with free internet access and breakfast. Plus you're more likely to strike up a conversation in a hostel than a Hilton. And you won't necessarily be bunking up in a dorm either – many offer singles, twins and doubles.
The centrally located Riverside Lodge hostel in Berlin, for example, has excellent reviews and double rooms are priced at Ł55/night – staying at a nearby hotel would cost around Ł70/night.
Another example, found by forumite Caro200, is the YMCA hostel in Hong Kong, which has doubles for Ł140/night and the same spectacular views as the Peninsula Hotel next door, where doubles cost around Ł340/night.
To check prices and availability, use Hostelbookers.com* and Hostelworld* – both give hostels a percentage rating based on users' experiences. Even if they say a hostel's full, always try emailing direct, in case there's a spare room that doesn't show up. To read more reviews from past guests and compare prices, try hostelz.com.
On top of cheap prices there are further discounts to be had. With a Ł20/year Youth Hostels Association* membership (Ł15/year by direct debit), you can get up to Ł3 off per night at Hostelling International hostels. Under-26s can bag membership for Ł10/year (Ł5/year by direct debit).
Traditional package hols are often cheaper than DIY trips
Package holidays often win if you're heading for a traditional tourist destination (eg, Rhodes, Malaga) for seven, 10 or 14 days.
When we looked early last summer, we found a week on the Costa Brava in August for a family of four, including flights, transfers and accommodation, at Ł171/person. Going DIY, the flights alone for the same dates were around Ł100/person – add a hotel and it pushes the cost per person to around Ł350. Plus with a package, you get ATOL protection (see below for what this means).
For package holiday prices skimpier than Rihanna's bikini, always book late. But if you need special facilities, book early and consider carefully whether booking a package really will save you money. See Cheap Package Holidays for a full guide.
Pay by credit card or book hotels and flights together to protect your booking
Package holidays are usually protected (always check) under either the ATOL or ABTA consumer protection scheme. This means if your tour operator goes bust, you're covered.
If you don't opt for a package holiday though, there are still ways to make sure you're covered:
Get ATOL protection on DIY bookings. ATOL doesn't protect standalone hotel bookings. But even if you're not booking a package, if you book a flight and separate hotel or car hire together (or within 24 hours) from the same travel website (not airline), you also get ATOL protection.
Even better, if you book flights and a hotel together, Expedia*, Ebookers* and Lastminute.com* sometimes give extra discounts. Compare this with booking the cheapest flight and hotel separately to see if this protection 'costs' you.
Pay by credit card. If a hotel stay's more than Ł100 and you pay by credit card, you'll get extra protection. That's because under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act, for purchases over Ł100 the credit card provider is equally liable if something goes wrong. See our Section 75 guide for more info.
Booked directly with a firm that went bust? Check your insurance policy. Some insurers will cover you in the event of cancellation, and possibly for other elements of your trip too, like flights, if you can't find anywhere else to stay. Alternatively, if you booked using a credit or debit card, see above.
Stay in a swanky spare room
Spare room and apartment rental sites have mushroomed in recent years, and can often offer cheap short-term stays worldwide. The idea is hosts put you up in their spare room or rent out their whole apartment to earn cash on the side. You can stay everywhere from swanky LA lofts to houseboats in Paris, and it's a great way to meet locals.
Crashing in spare rooms often beats hotel prices, too. We found a night in a double room in a Barcelona flat for Ł49 – a similar quality hotel cost Ł90.
The sites below act as middlemen between hosts and guests to help. It's worth trying a few, as sometimes prices differ for the same room between sites. When comparing, always click through to the payment page, as they can add extra fees at the final stage.
- Best for breadth: Airbnb. It's the biggest name in spare room renting, over 3,000,000 listings worldwide. It charges guests a 6-12% fee to stay.
- Smaller selection but can be cheaper: Wimdu*. Another major player, it features over 350,000 listings worldwide. It's free for hosts to list, so some price at slightly lower rates to reflect this. Guests pay a 15% flat fee to stay, shown on the payment page.
- For belt 'n' braces: 9flats.com*. It covers slightly fewer properties, but it's also worth a look. The site features over 200,000 listings worldwide. It doesn't charge any extra fees for guests, but charges hosts 15% of the transaction.
Before booking... find out as much as you can about the host, neighbourhood and property. Scour reviews from visitors and check photos closely. When you pay, go through the site's own payment system for added protection rather than handing over cash – that way, your money will be held for 24 hours after you've checked in.
Couchsurf and stay with strangers for FREE
If you don't mind kipping on people's couches, the Couchsurfing site allows you to sign up to stay on sofas around the world. You won't need to pay anything (though there is an optional Ł13 fee to verify your ID).
Rooming with strangers can be a lottery. This isn't for types who like to run fingers along doorframes for dust. Sometimes check-in times are restricted or email replies slow.
Before booking, always do your research and find out as much info as possible about the host, neighbourhood and property. Check reviews from visitors and inspect photos closely.

Pay with the right plastic to get the best rates
This isn't a specific hotels tip, but it's one that needs to be high on your agenda if you're paying for a hotel in foreign currency. There's one way to spend abroad that smashes all others – using a specialist travel credit card.
The Creation Everyday Mastercard has no fees on spending, and is cheap for ATM withdrawals. However, our long-term winner is the Halifax Clarity* Mastercard credit card. Use it to spend and you get the same perfect exchange rate the banks get, though ATM withdrawals are a smidgeon more than Creation. Plus we've a canny eligibility calculator, which leaves NO credit file mark and lets you see how likely you are to get it.
Always pay both cards off IN FULL each month, or you'll pay 12.9% rep APR and 18.9% rep APR respectively.
An added bonus is that if booking on a credit card you get Section 75 protection for anything over Ł100. For other options, see our Travel Credit Cards guide, or if you want to take cash, use our TravelMoneyMax tool to ensure you get the best rates.
Bag Ł100s off hotels with Tesco points
Regular Tesco shoppers who have saved up Tesco Clubcard points can trade them in for Rewards Vouchers, which can be spent around the world at hotel chains such as Mercure and Best Western.
The big advantage is that Clubcard points are worth 1p in store, but they're worth three or four times as much when converted into 'Rewards'.
The snag though is that hotels usually only let you use vouchers against their rack rates (ie, normal prices), which are often much higher than their cheapest internet ones. So before exchanging your Clubcard vouchers, carefully compare prices on Trivago* first, as you may get better value for your vouchers elsewhere.
For more on maxing Tesco vouchers' value, read our Boost Tesco Points guide.
Monitor the latest MSE hotel deals
This guide helps you cut the cost of any hotel worldwide, but it's always worth looking out for special one-off promotions which can save you a packet.
Keep your eyes peeled for discounts and deals on our Hotel Sales page – and, of course, make sure you're signed up to our weekly email.
Staycationing? UK bargains include cheap rooms in the capital and Ł15 breaks
If you're planning on staying back in Blighty, there are a host of special ways you can cut accommodation costs, from cheap university rooms in London and hostels with Game of Thrones views to Ł15 breaks using newspaper vouchers.
For full tips and details, see our UK Hotels guide.
Try a house-swap holiday
A number of home-swapping sites such as Home Base Holidays and Homelink allow you to switch your home with someone's elsewhere in the world.
To join you'll need to pay a fee – Home Base Holidays is Ł49 for a year's membership and Homelink's a pricier Ł99, though it claims to offer a more personal service, with representatives around the world. Then you upload photos and a description of your place.
Feedback varies – some have found it a way to make lifelong friends, while others wouldn't try it again – so you'll need to decide if it's for you. See the Great Travel Swapping Hunt for tons more tips on this.
Camp under the stars
Good ol' camping's a fun way to explore the great outdoors and get away on the cheap, especially if you're staying within Europe. Pack up a car with your own equipment and book a pitch at one of the many campsites across the continent.
As a starting point, check out the European Federation of Campingsite Organisations and Holiday Park Associations' website or Campingo, which lists campsites in more than 85 countries.
This can save on accommodation costs, even if you're travelling further afield – for example, when we looked we found a week's stay for a family of four at the Bloomfield Beach Camp in Tropical North Queensland for around Ł200. You'd pay around Ł900 in a nearby hotel.
For a full list of MoneySavers' top tips on safe, hassle-free camping, see the Great Camping Hunt in the forum.
Check if the price includes breakfast – and if it's really worth it
When you're booking a room it's always worth checking if the price includes breakfast – sometimes it will, sometimes it won't. Always check.
There's no hard and fast rule on this. Sometimes booking-sites or hotels will throw in a 'free' breakfast as an added incentive to book and it's worth it, but sometimes you'll find you end up paying much more for the night as a result. So factor in the cost.
Most places are likely to have nearby cafes, bakeries and eateries that will allow you to pick up inexpensive breakfast items if you don't pay. However, if breakfast is included for only a little more, it might be worth shelling out the extra amount.
Breakfast also makes an excellent haggling point – if you're trying to persuade a hotel to beat a comparison site's price, ask them if it'll throw in breakfast for free.
Work for your food and board
It's sometimes possible to bag free food and accommodation in exchange for a few hours' work each day, usually on farms. Two of the biggest programmes are HelpX and WWOOF (Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms). Prices differ depending on which country you're in for HelpX, but WWOOF is free for basic members.
On the site workaway.info, jobs are listed in return for accommodation and sometimes food. It operates in around 140 countries and you'll need to pay around Ł25 for a one-year membership. We found vacancies listed near Rio working on a country estate; jobs include gardening, cooking and working in the plantation.
However, none of the sites we've mentioned will organise, or help to organise, a working visa for you. For most countries outside the European Union, you're likely to need one to work. If you're not sure either way, contact the UK embassy in the country you plan to work in – it should be able to help.

The First Had the Camera Perfect.
Very Fun Game, but low fps and all the action is closeup, you can't even see the enemy correctly.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
It has its ups, it has its downs
The graphics are awesome, the gameplay is good and the concept is spectacular, but like all things in this world, it is far from perfect. the weapon switching system can get annoying ( for instance if you have double shotguns and then it auto switches you to another gun) lagging out is common and your teammates are basically mindless morons. these things set aside it is an awesome game, but if you fix these problems it would be alot better .
Rated 3 / 5 stars
good game and all but...
this game is a little ok but needs a WHOLE lot more work. i got really annoyed by the major glitches but you should make 4th one but make it bigger and better
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Fun game with a few flaws
Like the others the team damage on the AI's needs to be removed because they charge at the enemy's your shooting which makes them a meat shield for the enemy. Also the healing pistol seems like a good idea but it's a real nuisance because of the slow health regain and the map size's are really small so enemy's can catch up to you and finish you off.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Its OK
I liked it and my game experience has been pretty much glitch free but the fact that friendly fire is on and that your team-mates have a much lower AI than the opposition doesn't favour the player. On one match (the fight against the Ancient guardians ((Team death match to 10))) i got 9 kills and my 3 team-mates didn't even get one and the fact is that all they do is rush in block you from shooting, then dying. I even found myself killing all my team-mates and the opposition and getting a better score than letter them die. Overall the game play was good but could you please fix the friendly AI or at least turn of friendly fire, Thanks.

Variac size to buy
I'm am near completion of an Aleph J, and I soon plan to build the F3-5. I want to slowly fire the amp up with a variac the first time. What size variac would you buy? 5A? 10? Larger?!?!
Any suggestions?
I have build a bunch of stuff. I think a 1000 VA is fine, less and you cannot startup your big amps, and more is unnecessary because its not taking the startup transient, you start from zero and go slowly up.
here is a link, I think I bought one of these red dealies, but not one that they have now, about 1000 VA.
Don't forget that it's a good idea to set bias to minimum before starting up for the first time - so you don't need that much current ability. I wouldn't use a variac for full power testing.
Have fun, Hannes
Oh I forgot: poor man's variac - a light bulb (100W) wired in series with the transformer primaries. It has no effect if the amp comes up ok, but lights up nicely if your amp features a dead short somewhere.
Have fun, Hannes
fit a bulb tester between the mains and the new project.
Test the transformer alone.
Add the PSU to the transformer and test again.
Add one amplifier channel with output bias set to near zero and test again.
Remove bulb tester and substitute soft start.
Increase bias and check voltages and temperatures throughout the amplifier.
Save up for a small Variac (2A to 3A @ 240Vac) does almost all other jobs that need a variable supply voltage. Is that equivalent to a 4A or 6A @ 120Vac?
Look at Marlin P Jones for cheap variacs.
Regards all...
I'm with Andrew on this not only does a light bulb act as a current limiter it can be a visual cue that something is not kosher ... I use a variac and a light bulb when cranking up a new amp.
keep the faith baby...
I bought a 1kva model
I couldn't find a 1kva initially. Which is odd, because I remember seeing them for sale at the usual websites.
Anyway, I found one at a tremendous price. Ted Weber (the guitar amp guru) has a tool site where I found the variac for 50 bucks!

3 curlies on What Not To Wear tonight
There were 3 curlies on WNTW tonight. Two were pregnant and one had just had a baby. The first one (who I think had chemically straightened hair) wanted her hair straight and Nick made it look much silkier and pretty. The second one had curly red hair, probably 3a-ish, and she kinda wanted hers straight but Nick said her hair was so thick and curly that he thought maybe she would like something easier to take care of. It was gorgeous. The third one had 3a to 3b and she wanted hers to stay curly and it looked awesome in the end. I have a crush on Nick.
edited because I really do know how to spell 'pregnant'. and also to add I tried Nick's technique that he used on the curly dark hair last nite (using my own CG products) and it didn't turn out half bad. Running a wide tooth pick thru my hair broke up the curl too much but it really turned out presentable. What else is there to do at 2am besides hair experiments?
Ooooh, will have to watch those! I love TiVo. :D
I saw that one! I have a crush on Nick too! I tried his technique of running your fingers through your hair at the roots and shaking your hair. It gave me the volume that I have been complaining about not having.
I have to say that I've also been paying attention to make-up tips from Carmandy (sp?) too. People have complimented me on my makeup the last few days. I love that show.
Can anybody post the methods he used on the curly moms? I always seem to tune in when the last one is getting out of the chair he goes ah, three curly girls and three different finishes -- only I missed what he did!
I don't have TiVO or VHS.

For fiscal year 2011-2012, alumni, parents, faculty, staff, friends, and students - gave $2,281,125, exceeding the $2,226,000 Hampden-Sydney Fund goal. Total gifts to the College were $8 million of which alumni contributed a total of $4.5 million.
The Class of 2010 won the Brinkley Challenge for 2012.
Each year, graduates of the last decade compete in the annual giving competition known as The Brinkley Challenge. Classes are awarded points for the amount of their class gift, the percentage of giving participation, and the increase in their gift and participation over the previous year.
Thanks to Class Agent Willis Davis and dozens of other dedicated volunteers, the Class of 2010 increased its giving participation from 26% to 35% with 97 donors from the class; no other graduating class had a greater number of donors. The Class of 2010 increased its gift to $11,519, up from $7,307.
Willis Davis will be presented with the Brinkley Challenge Raising Cane Award at the Homecoming alumni awards ceremony on Saturday, October 13, 2012, on the front lawn of Hampden House.
Congratulations to the Class of 2010, and thank you for your overwhelming support of Hampden-Sydney!
Congratulations also to the Class of 1971 for winning the inaugural Reunion Giving Challenge.
Led by their Reunion Giving Chairman, Major General Gordon Nash, these men raised $68,997. While this amount is impressive, what won them the title was that 67 out of 114 class members made a gift, bringing their class giving percentage to 67.5%. This is an 18.4% increase over the previous year.
Hampden-Sydney thanks General Nash for his tireless efforts in directing this successful campaign and the Class of 1971 for their generous spirit. This accomplishment sets a high standard for future reunion classes.

— Jo Juncture
Dear Jo,
You should get in touch with the lender or loan servicer to determine what's required to remove a co-signer from a student loan, in a process also called a co-signer release. I asked Patricia Christel, a spokeswoman for Sallie Mae, what that college lender requires to complete a co-signer release.
For Sallie Mae student loans, a co-signer can initiate a request to be removed from the loan, but the primary borrower has to complete the application by providing financial information demonstrating that he or she can handle making the payments on his or her own. That wouldn't seem to be an issue in your son's situation.
I'd suggest picking up the phone and having a talk with your son about having him initiate this release process. Explain that he's needlessly tying up your access to credit and that it's time for him accept responsibility for these loans without you acting as his financial backstop.
If your relationship is too strained for this solution to work and you want to see if there are any legal remedies available to you, you'll need to work with your attorney to end your days as a student loan co-signer.

Fabulous, Fleeting and for Your Consideration: Fashion Rental
You could be rocking a $400 Kate Spade clutch for $12, or a $1,850 Versace gown for $80. Feel like splurging? Adorn your neck with an Oscar De La Renta statement necklace for $150, original retail $2000.
The catch? Each item comes with a limited rental period. The clock strikes midnight and just as Cinderella's coach turned back into a pumpkin, your $90 Manolo Blahniks must be returned and replaced with your sensible off-brand pumps (Manaloo Blaaniks – they run big).
But you got to feel like a princess for a couple of nights and it was worth it. Which is why we are all about businesses that rent fabulous clothes and accessories.
A quick Google search will turn up a robust amount of links directing you to clothing and accessories rental services. However after perusing the blogosphere, a trusty rental program and model can be found in renttherunway.com.
The site allows visitors to search for exactly what they need, filtering by price, size, delivery date, color, trend, body type, sleeve, neckline, age and designer. You are recommended to rent four days before your event. If the piece doesn't fit you can send it back in a prepaid bag and receive a different size or style in time for your glamorous plans, guaranteed.
The list of designers available for rent is extensive, including designers like Carolina Herrara, Diane Von Furstenberg, Lilly Pulitzer, Missoni, Prabal Gurung, Vera Wang, Zac Posen and many more.
So if prom, black tie galas, weddings or festive nights-out are in your future, consider an alternative to your current non-designer buying budget. Give rental a try. The glass slipper fit Cinderella perfectly. The Christian Louboutin's may fit you just as well.
Here are some rental sites we recommend checking out to get you started (per thebudgetfashionista.com):

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
Snow Birds are welcome to get out of the cold!!! Florida Style home built in the 1920's, furnished in that era with all the modern comforts. This charming home offers three bedrooms, two full baths and a two car garage. The main bathroom has a vintage claw foot tub, and the master bedroom has a walk-in shower. Natural and orginal heartwood pine floors throughout with oriental rugs. Enjoy the laid back style of living in the screened porch or grilling on one of the two backyard patio's among citrus and tropical fruit trees. Walk to the Indian River and view launches from U.S. 1, just two blocks away. Kennedy Space Center is very close buy, visit Merritt Island National Wildlife or discover the natural beauty of Titusville's Playalinda Beach, 25 miles of unspoiled beaches. Boating launch is a half of a mile away. Go fly-fishing on the Indian River, just a block away. Titusville has many beautiful parks and boat launches located on the River.
The location is convenient to area amenities and a short drive to the beach and wildlife viewing. The house and yard were perfect for our family vacation. Everything you need is there to make it feel as if it is your home. The hosts are right next door to help with any requests or information. We would stay again without hesitation.
We absolutely LOVED the house and the back yard! Chris and Greg have the place stocked w everything you would need!
We'll definitely be back and stay at this rental!
We stayed here from January 1st til March 31, 2017. It was the second time we stayed here and we just love it!
The house was built in1922 and is decorated in that style. Hardwood floors, claw foot tub, antique furniture, mixed with modern amenities. It is exceptionally clean and well maintained by the owners, who are also the neighbors. They are very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. It has a huge yard with two sitting areas in the back and a large screened in porch in front. It is also pet friendly, which we appreciate.
We found many interesting activities in Titusville. It's close to Orlando, Cape Canaveral, and Cocoa Beach. We loved the wildlife refuge on Merritt Island, the National Seashore, and the air show they have in Titusville every year in March. The house is only a block from the Indian River so it's great for morning walks and watching rocket launches.
The neighborhood is quiet and safe. We met many friendly neighbors. We plan to return!!
The wife and I along with our old Labrador stayed at this very nice home during the month of January. We had a great time and can't say enough about the property and the owners. The house is a neat spanish type home with a huge lot. Our dog just loved the backyard. It was close to all attractions and we visited numerous interesting places and enjoyed a number of great restaurants. The owners were a big help and gave us a lot of advice on where to go for sightseeing and dining. They are #1 and we highly recommend this property.
Very clean, pictures do not do justice for this Spanish style home. We were a family of 8 and this home was big enough for all of us. The homeowners Chris and Greg were very sweet and helpful on things to do. Coming back next year definitely. Close to Indian river and only 16 miles away from Playalinda beach which is a private beach. But I could go on and on about this experience, so check it out for your self. It's worth every penny!!
My husband and I rented this home with our 2 pets for March of 2015. We liked what we saw on this web site but we loved it even more when we walked in the door. It was built in 1922 and totally refurbished by the owners. It is true to the period with hardwood floors, tile in the bathrooms, a claw foot bathtub and even period light fixtures. We found it immaculately clean and stocked with everything we would need for our stay. The yard is huge and gorgeous. We enjoyed sitting on the screened in front porch with our pets. I liked walking the dog by the Indian River every morning, always a beautiful sight.
Titusville is close to Orlando, it only took us about 35 minutes to get to the airport there to pick up guests. There are plenty of interesting activities in the area. Our favorites were the Playa Linda Beach and the Merritt Island Wildlife Sanctuary. We also saw 3 rocket launches across the river at Cape Canaveral and went to an air show at the War Bird Air Museum.
The owners (neighbors) made us feel welcome and provided plenty of information about the history of the area and activities in town that we might enjoy. We loved this vacation rental, it was the best ever! We will definitely be back.
Reader's Digest recently featured Titusville as the top spots in the nation for free vacation
destinations, RD listed viewing a shuttle launch as their No. 1 pick for a free, memorable
activity. View launches on the Indian River. Southern Living has featured the Blue Heron

Rear-End Collisions: How to Get a Good Settlement
The easier you make it for an adjuster to pay what you consider to be a fair settlement, the more likely you are to achieve an acceptable result.
Obtaining a good settlement in a rear-end collision claim comes down to arming yourself with all of the available facts surrounding the collision, and persistently presenting them to the other side (i.e. the other driver's insurer) in a persuasive way.
Rear-end collisions are very common. At any given time, an insurance adjuster can have tens or hundreds of rear-end collisions awaiting settlement. The easier you make it for an adjuster to pay what you consider to be a fair settlement, the more likely you are to achieve an acceptable result.
Collect Information at the Scene of the Rear-End Collision
Immediately after a rear-end collision, obtaining a good settlement is often the last thing on your mind. The trauma inherent in any auto accident can cause even the most levelheaded individual to forget things. But the more information you can collect at the scene of the accident, the stronger your claim will be. At a minimum, try to obtain the following:
- a police report
- names and phone numbers of any witnesses, and
- insurance information and contact information for other drivers involved
Ideally, you would also obtain photographs of the scene and any damage to your vehicle. Photographs of any injuries will also be helpful. Remember, in this day and age nearly everyone has a cell phone that doubles as a camera. If you don't have one yourself, try and ask someone at the scene to take pictures for you.
What to Do Shortly After a Rear-End Collision
If you are injured in a rear-end collision, seek medical attention immediately. Documenting your physical condition immediately after the accident can go a long way toward obtaining a good settlement. Insurance adjusters need medically documented proof of injuries to pay claims. Otherwise they will be forced to initiate a medical review of the file, which takes time and money -- money that will likely be deducted from any potential settlement offer you may receive. And if you aren't injured and offer proof that you aren't, an adjuster may take that as a sign of good faith when paying on your property damage claims.
At your first opportunity, write down a narrative of the accident. Include as much detail as possible. Sign and date your narrative, and initial and date any additions you may make as you remember anything. Within a day or so of the accident, you should also talk to any witnesses you can contact. Ask them if they would be willing to provide written statements if their recollections support your claim. Make sure you take notes during conversations, so you have a record of what was discussed. The more support you can provide for your claims, the better.
Finally, you should report the accident to your insurance company -- and that of the offending driver -- as soon as possible. Ideally, you would do this immediately after the accident, but as long as you do so within a day or two, you should be fine. Informing insurance companies of potential claims can trigger coverage and prevent disputes down the line.
Start a File
Once you get past the first couple days after the rear-end collision, organization will become key. Paperwork will begin to pile up. Letters, medical records, witness statements, insurance questionnaires, and repair estimates and bills can get out of hand in a hurry. A simple file folder in which you store all accident-related paperwork can go a long way toward making your life easier. When adjusters and investigators need information, being able to provide it to them in an organized fashion will make your life -- and theirs -- much easier.
Seek Legal Advice Sooner Rather than Later
Even if you aren't planning on filing a lawsuit, attorneys can provide valuable advice regarding how to conduct your claim. Lawyers have an intimate knowledge of insurance claims, and can offer tips and tricks that may smooth your path to financial recover. And it never hurts to have a Plan B in place in case your rear-end collision settlement negotiations do not proceed as well as you would like.

Apple is giving away free content via the Apple Store iOS app as part of an apparent sales push. Starting today, users can download a copy of Color Zen, a puzzle game that normally retails for $0.99, free of charge through the app.
Once in the Apple Store app, simply navigate to the Stores tab and you'll see a prompt for the free content. Tap it and you'll be taken to a screen to finalize your download which is good through August 27. The promotion is expected to continue on indefinitely, however, with Apple eventually offering up a new app, a piece of iTunes media content like a song or a video and even e-books.
Why not offer free content through the App Store instead of the Apple Store app? To drive more traffic, of course. Apple's in-store traffic and revenue were down this past quarter and that's something Tim Cook wants to change. Of course, it's worth pointing out that in-store traffic typically is higher when Apple releases a new product which didn't happen during the previous quarter.
Cook recently told employees that he wants more iPhone sales to take place in Apple retail stores versus with other retail partners and carriers. Reports from the meeting point out that only 20 percent of iPhones sales take place in Apple retail stores. Special offers like this and annual back-to-school deals could be what he was alluding to.

Arsenal face Mission Impossible here tonight knowing whatever happens they must not press the self-destruct button.
Only the most myopic supporter will give the Gunners a prayer as they enter the imposing Allianz Arena charged with the task of rewriting Champions League history in order to reach the quarter-finals.
It is worth detailing the magnitude of the challenge before them:
- Only twice have a team ever come back from losing the first leg at home to win a tie in the knockout stages — Inter Milan two seasons ago and Ajax in 1996.
- No team in the Champions League have ever recovered to qualify after losing the first leg at home by a two-goal margin.
- Arsenal have never overturned a home first-leg deficit in any European competition and won only one of their last 22 European away games by the margin required to qualify tonight — a 3-1 success against Partizan Belgrade in 2010-11.
- Bayern have not lost at home by more than one goal for 25 months, a period spanning 52 games, and sit 20 points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.
'Mission Impossible' may be hyperbolic billing but it seems apt. "Impossible? No. Difficult? Yes," admitted Wenger, in a response that would not make a similarly memorable film title.
"It is difficult to say what percentage chance we have but what is important is that we have big experience in the Champions League and in Europe we have won everywhere.
"That means we have the right to believe because we have the quality and to turn up just assuming we go out would be absolutely unacceptable, so we want to show we can use our experience and our quality and have the right belief to do it."
The Gunners have hardly brought a squad to Bavaria that inspire confidence. Jack Wilshere's absence with an ankle injury is a precautionary measure with the 21-year-old's career in mind. Lukas Podolski also has an ankle complaint, while Bacary Sagna has failed to recover from a knee problem.
Wilshere, in particular, will be sorely missed but the most intriguing absentee is goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, who Wenger maintains has been rested after starting every Arsenal game since a 5-2 victory over Spurs on November 17.
It is a curious omission that raises questions about the 22-year-old's state of mind after a difficult last 12 months or so in which he was the poster boy in Poland at Euro 2012 only to be sent off in the tournament's opening match.
Szczesny has also suffered with an ankle injury and as a deeply analytical and self-critical player, Wenger's decision to leave his No1 keeper back in London is an admission that criticism of his performances has taken its toll.
"He has played many games since the start of the season and recently I felt that mentally it affected him," said Wenger. "That is why I have decided to rest him. It is his second season only in the Premier League and he has played many games. Some of our players have played many, many games since the start of the season. That is why you have a big squad and you sometimes rotate the players.
"It is a big game, which is why we play the players who are completely fit and ready. We have a squad of 18 players, everybody can make a difference, it is important we focus on the players who are here, not the ones at home."
That sentiment is understandable but leaving Szczesny out could also be interpreted as an admission that Wenger has given up the ghost. The prospect he could also rest Theo Walcott and Santi Cazorla suggest as much.
Such was the authority with which Bayern Munich acquired a 3-1 first leg advantage three weeks ago, it would be easy for this fragile group to fear a hiding. Some solace can be taken in the knowledge Bayern are without Jerome Boateng and Bastian Schweinsteiger through suspension, while Franck Ribery is unavailable after suffering a ligament strain in his left ankle during last weekend's 3-2 win against Fortuna Dusseldorf.
But, regardless, the Gunners need spirit in abundance tonight, not just to restore pride but to galvanise a beleaguered squad for the Premier League challenge that lies ahead with their top-four status and future Champions league participation in the balance.
Wenger talked a good game here last night once again but so often this season Arsenal have found themselves out of a match before it has truly begun. Against Bayern, they conceded twice within 21 minutes.
They can ill-afford to press that self-destruct button against an accomplished team like tonight's opponents and captain Thomas Vermaelen insists the Gunners are working to improve their defensive frailty.
"You always take criticism personally but we are just here to go again," he said. "We are working on that every day of the week and it will be a test again tonight, not only for the defence but for all the team. We will try to do our best."
There are many pragmatists in Arsenal red that believe Saturday's game at Swansea is the biggest game of the week in the context of next season. Arsenal need a miracle here — a top-four finish is more attainable and relevant to the club's overall ambition.
Failure to qualify for the Champions League would strip Wenger of the last indisputable defence of a tenure that is under more scrutiny than ever before. Arsenal require a performance to propel them into the more important business of overhauling Chelsea and/or Tottenham.
That is their main mission, should they choose to accept it.

The institutional repository, as a collection of research knowledge, is being encouraged to integrate with the researcher?s desktop environment. However, the desktop metaphor used on personal computer systems provides only limited abilities to organize an individual?s information; the same is true for the digital library metaphor adopted by repositories. Neither environment provides many tools for relating its contents to external information sources. The need for automatically organizing information on the desktop to meet a user?s various needs to accomplish knowledge tasks has been identified by researchers but there is still no widely-adopted solution to tackle it. Semantic web concepts are being used to organize web data into structures that enable machines to interpret and combine it easily with other information to build knowledge. In this paper we discuss the need for an organization mechanism for the desktop that will help integrate desktop data with other data from repositories and from the web, or vice versa.

Tony Blair has been warned that he faces renewed dissent over planned anti-terror laws as research showed the Government faced record levels of rebellion from its backbenchers last year.
Labour MPs defied the whip in more than a quarter of votes during the last session of Parliament, academics at Nottingham University said.
More than half of the rebellions, and the four defeats inflicted, were over Home Office Bills, leading to warnings that the Government could face problems with legislation in a Queen's Speech expected to focus on crime and anti-terror measures.
The research came amid renewed calls for the Government to consider extending the time police can hold terror suspects without charge. The current limit of 28 days was set as a compromise after MPs threw out government plans to permit suspects to be held for up to 90 days.
Tomorrow's Queen's Speech is expected to include controv-ersial anti-terror legislation, while Gordon Brown and the Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair have called for an extension of the time suspects can be held in terror cases.
Labour MPs rebelled in 95 out of 343 votes, almost equalling the 96 rebellions suffered by the Government during the whole of Mr Blair's first term. MPs rebelled more often even than during the 1992-93 session, when John Major struggled to push the Maastricht treaty through Parliament.
Philip Cowley, a researcher, found that 114 Labour MPs had voted against their whips since the general election. He said no other post-war government with a majority of more than 60 in the Commons had suffered as many defeats in an entire parliament, let alone in its first session.
The most frequent rebel was John McDonnell, the chairman of the Socialist Campaign Group of MPs and a declared candidate to stand as a left-wing successor to Mr Blair. Mr McDonnell warned there was widespread unease over civil liberties across all parties and predicted fresh unrest if ministers failed to make the case for new anti-terror laws. He said: "If the Government is going to focus on this in the Queen's Speech they will have to come up with some very strong arguments and evidence."
Other senior Labour backbenchers also warned that the Government had to give strong evidence to justify extending the length of time police can hold terror suspects.
David Winnick, the Labour MP who proposed the 28-day compromise, told the BBC that he did not believe there was "any justification" for increasing it.
John Denham, chairman of the Commons Home Affairs Committee, called for an independent review of any case for an extension. He said: "If the Government is now convinced by the evidence they should subject it to the sort of independent scrutiny that the select committee called for. I think that if that happened, Parliament would be inclined to support a change."

Mini Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Muffins
I don't know what it is about miniaturised food but I just love it. If I could serve all meals in mini form I totally would. I've seen miniature cakes around the blogging world and I plan on making one of those..because..don't we all deserve to have a mini cake of our own?
These muffins are super cute,delicious and who doesn't love the peanut butter and chocolate combo? ( alot of Dutch people,thats who :( These muffins are perfect after school snacks or something small to have with a cup of coffee or tea. They freeze beautifully and if you are totally against the mini idea..you can infact bake 12 boring sized regular muffins.
Mini Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Muffins
1-3/4 cup All-purpose Flour
2/3 cup Packed Brown Sugar
2-1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
1/4 tsp. Salt
1 Egg
3/4 cup Milk..I used fat free
2/3 cup Chunky or smooth Peanut Butter
1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
1-1/2 tsp. Vanilla
2/3 cup Mini semi sweet Chocolate Chips
Preheat oven to 350 or 180. Line a mini muffin tin with liners or spray with non stick spray ( I did half and half and actually prefer the ones with no liners).
In a large bowl,combine the flour,brown sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, combine the egg,milk, peanut butter, oil and vanilla. Stir into flour mixture just until moistened. Fold in chocolate chips.
Fill mini muffin tins two-thirds full. Bake for 15-17 mins or until toothpick inserted near center comes out with just a few crumbs attached. Cool for 5 minutes in pan;remove and cool completely on wire racks.
** If you decide to bake regular sized muffins, grease a 12 cup tin and bake for 22-25 mins**
Yield: 4 Dozen Mini's or 12 Regular sized muffins

I know I've said it many times, but oak leaf hydrangea is my all time favorite flowering shrub.
Just do a search on my blog and see it in all it's gorgeous stages.
Right now, it's white flowers are slowly turning to pink.
Did I mention that it's huge??? Plus we have taken little offshoots of this original bush and now have 4 more bushes scattered through our yard. There is no such thing as too many oak leaf hydrangeas.

You may have noticed that I'm a bit obsessed with avoiding the sun. I'm a pale Irish girl with a lot of red headed relatives. I freckle and burn, no tan in sight. I've tried to do the tanning thing in the past (I've never tanned in a bed, only outside), but with little success. By default I've embraced the pale, happy about the anti-aging benefits of my choice.
Not everyone is lucky with their sun exposure. My husband's uncle died of Melanoma at 41. A friend of the family was diagnosed at 18 (she's had Mohs surgery and is now fine). I watched an 8 year old die of Melanoma as a pediatrics resident.
In the last 24 hours I've had five family members post this video to their Facebook pages.

Anyhow, if previous rumors are to be believed, the S5 mini will feature a 4.5-inch 720p Super AMOLED display, quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor, 1.5GB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory, 2MP front-facing camera, and an 8MP rear camera. Like the already-released 5.1-inch Galaxy S5, the mini version should be dust- and water-resistant.
As a reminder, HTC is reportedly also preparing the release of a mini One M8 - which seems to have specs similar to what Samsung's S5 mini will offer. What's more, it appears that we'll have an LG G3 mini, too. And all three will be larger than Apple's current flagship smartphone. These are strange times we're living in, eh?

UCC engineers end coastal erosion study
AN in-depth scientific study of coastal erosion and the movement of sediment along the coast of Dingle Bay was wrapped up recently in Annascaul with some of the country's top experts in this area of research obtaining data that could prove vital in terms of erosion, flood mitigation and planning policy in the future.
According to Waterville native and research engineer at the Hydraulics and Maritime Research Centre in University College Cork, Michael O'Shea, the Dingle Bay Radar Project was a six-week trial which sought to measure wave statistics and gather up-to-date scientific data from Dingle Bay.
"The project utilised Wave Radar system WERA to record wave heights and directions and surface currents over the area," Project Manager Michael explained. "We had stations in Bunanear, near Annascaul, on the northern side of Dingle Bay and in Kells on the southern side."
The project was commissioned in response to the large scale erosion that has been occurring on Rossbeigh Beach over the past five years.
"A section of the beach has been eroded and the dunes have been breached," Mr O'Shea explained. "The wave radar will provide data that will increase the understanding of coastal processes in Dingle Bay... This is vital to predicting the future of Rossbeigh and the Dingle Bay area in terms of erosion, flood mitigation and planning policy."
Mr O'Shea and a team of engineers from UCC and MARTEK, including Keith O'Sullivan from Kenmare, wrapped up their data collection in Annascaul at the beginning of December. They are now compiling information gathered in order to draw conclusions.
According to Michael, some interesting trends have already been identified, in so far as that while Rossbeigh is losing sand; the Inch side seems to be somehow maintaining its coastal capacity.
"We also think that much of the sand that has been removed may be re-deposited again," he said, "but all the data needs to be correlated before conclusions can be drawn".
The Dingle Bay Radar Project is being managed by the Hydraulics and Maritime Research Centre of UCC.

You can actually feel Skype quaking in their boots. Earlier this week Google announced that users would be able to make phone calls to any traditional number right from the Gmail interface.
Naturally, I had to check this out. I mean, it's free after all, as long as you're calling someone in the United States or Canada, and the promise of international calls billed as low as 2¢ a minute doesn't hurt, either.
So here's how to do it:
Log into your Gmail account, and under the Chat section on the left side you'll notice a new option that says Call phone. Click on it
Upon clicking it, a traditional phone dial pad will pop up. You'll need to install the Google Chat and Video plug-in for your browser before you can make a call, but there's a link provided right in the call interface and it doesn't take too long to set up.
After you've set that up, make sure you've got a microphone hooked up to your computer, input a number for someone you'd like to call and hit the Call button. It rings, acts and sounds exactly like a regular phone call, and the best part is: it's free!!
Head over to your Gmail account and check it out today!!

Commissioner Sworn In
As the new year approaches in Alachua County, some things won't change. Alachua County Commissioners Paula Delaney, Mike Byerly and Rodney Long will serve another four years in office. There may be some difficult times ahead.
As friends and family came out watch and congratulate, the three incumbents were sworn in, again. Byerly was appointed as the new chair. Chestnut was appointed vice chair. Long was also elected President Of The Florida Association Of Counties for the next 18 months.
So what goals and changes can the community look for within the next few years?
The county is already working with what commissioners call an underfunded budget from the last fiscal year. But the election brought them some good news.
Some projects have already had to be put on hold like the renovations to the Alachua County Courthouse, which was to add on a 32-million dollar court support building and costs had to be reduced for renovating the Animal Services Building from 1.5 million to 1 million. the bond money was allocated to work on future transportation projects.
"We have to make investments in long term infrastructure projects, it will cost us something up front, but save us money in the long term."
Something the three Commissioners hope to be around to see.

Wild-simulated Ginseng Conference on Dec. 7 and 8, 2012
Are you interested in growing wild-simulated ginseng? Do you think production of more wild-simulated ginseng will help conserve wild populations? Do you know the federal and state laws concerning wild-harvesting and growing ginseng? Are you interested in exporting ginseng? Do you know what ginseng is used for? If these questions are of interest to you, you should plan on attending the International Ginseng Expo/Conference on December 7 and 8 in Mills River, NC (near Asheville). Two of the leading experts on wild-simulated ginseng growing, Scott Persons and Bob Beyfuss, will be featured speakers. There are well-known herbalists, botanists, ecologists, scientists, buyers, growers, and export experts on the program. This is a small venue conference, so there will be ample opportunities to visit with the speakers and get to know your fellow attendees. For more information and to register visit the NC Natural Products Association website.
PS, the ginseng roots shown above are from some of our research plots. These were growing in the woods, planted in 2006, and harvested in 2012.

Rachel and Marcus were married at Yesterday Spaces in Leicester, N.C. on July 13. The bride wore a off-white silk wedding dress with a v-neckline lined with ruffles draping over her shoulders, while the groom wore a gray suit, purple button-up, and sage green tie. "We were going for a neutral color scheme," Rachel said. "We wanted the wildflowers, and the Blue Ridge Mountains to be the color!" After sharing their personal vows to each other, these two said, "I do" inside the dairy barn. Notice the dried flowers hanging from the rafters? We sure did! A chalkboard sign escorted guests to their seats and brewed cider on the back porch. "The tables were handmade by a friend of the owners from local wood," she said. "It's a very environmentally-friendly venue." And the non-traditional cake was actually apple stacks topped with burlap bunting.

Over to Switzerland, where star-crossed public figures retreat.
Two weeks ago both Vicky Pryce and Denis MacShane headed out to the five-star Grand Resort Bad Ragaz to address clients of global management consultancy A T Kearney on a timely topic, Beyond the Crisis.
Pryce, ex-wife of former energy secretary Chris Huhne, faces trial with him in January over alleged speeding offences. Among other questions she addressed in her talk was: "Is there is a silver lining in the current crisis?".
MacShane, who has just resigned as MP for Rotherham over expenses irregularities, gave a speech entitled Speed Dating the Future.
A T Kearney is listed as paying him £3,405.45 for speaking at a "CEO retreat" in 2011.
Perhaps Switzerland could offer the pair of them refuge if things get really bad?

Dominique Mazeaud
Since 1979, "heartist" Dominique Mazeaud has been on a journey to find the spiritual in art. Her installations and ritual-based performances in service to the Earth reflect this quest.
Mazeaud's seven-year project, "The Great Cleansing of the Rio Grande River" was at first a monthly ritual to clean up the river as a prayer, while documenting the visits in a journal. As the project developed it became a profound meditation on her connection to the river itself. "I have landed in a new land where I discover the river is as true an artist as I am."
An ongoing performance called the "Point of Tears" (see image) addresses the issue of how people can connect to place directly. "Point of Tears" has been performed internationally. Through the performance Mazeaud models participants a method of "deep listening" which helps raise awareness of their important relationship to the environment. This heart-based connection to the world may indeed be the essential foundation of all efforts to make the world a better place.

"It's going good," Harvey said. "We just beat Dwyer."
Harvey, 6-foot-1 and 220 pounds, is playing well this season and hopes it'll catch the attention of some college coaches.
"I think this year has been very good," he said. "So far we are achieving the goals that we planned in the beginning of the season -- undefeated, a great defense, and under six points per game allowed. I am very confident going into the playoffs because of the schedule we have already played."
Harvey is being recruited by a few schools and has been all year.
"If Colgate and Lehigh stay as my offers through this month I will go visit them in December," he said. "Lehigh was undefeated until they played Colgate yesterday and lost -- 21 unanswered points in the second half by Colgate, who is really rolling on offense. They need a little help on defense which I believe I could help."
Harvey is hoping to catch the attention of some other Division 1 schools in the near future.
"I'm sending out regular season highligths this week," he said.
In the meantime, Harvey will continue helping lead American Heritage towards another potential state championship.
