Need a Pep Talk? 15 Tips to Nail That Job Interview
Andrew Garrison
October 4th 2016
During your career, jobs may come and go, but how do you even get a job to begin with? Its all in the interview. Now, when you go for that first meeting, you may be nervous, which is perfectly normal. However, there is a right and wrong way to doing an interview. And it may take some time, but if you master the interview stage, youre already halfway home and into that office chair of your dreams. Here are some helpful tips to help you get there.
1. Let Them do the Talking
When stepping into that office for your interview, there are probably at least 20 different things running through your mind and even more about what to say. Keep in mind though, that you are not running the interview, they are. What you want is irrelevant, they are the ones selecting you. Let them conduct the interview, and only talk when spoken to. And when speaking, try to keep it short and to the point. The interviewer goes into this with their own agenda and can only accomplish it, if they are the ones in control.
They appreciate you giving them feedback on their points and want to see that you understand. But, dont overdo it with the small talk or constant jibber jabber. And this is crucial, when asked the question, so tell me a little about yourself? Keep it is as brief and as relevant to the interview as possible. Dont talk about how you love dogs, about how you love the movie Inception or really like chewing taffy. All of these important tidbits are unnecessary.
2. Mind your physical Cues
Remember, about 93 percent of all communication is non-verbal. So watch those physical cues. This includes monitoring rapid pen clicking, excessive chair swiveling or redundant head nodding. All of these physical tics can be distracting. When the goal of the interview should be for the interviewer to see your positive traits. You want to cast yourself in the best possible light. And reducing these distractions is key.
Also, if you look nervous and are shaking during the interview, that isnt good either. No matter how you feel internally, keep things together on the outside. Now, the person running the interview does understand that you probably are feeling apprehensive about the process. So this gives you a little leeway, just a little though. And ultimately, if it comes down to you and one other person. And they look calm and collected and you dont, then theyre getting the job.
3. Dress the Part
Now this doesnt necessarily mean dress to impress, but it does mean dress for the job you want. Before the interview, you should be notified by someone in the company of the proper dress code for the position youre applying for. Usually, this is non-negotiable. If the dress is coat and tie or business professional, you cant show up in cargo shorts. That would be comfortable, but not practical. And you dont want the interview to be over before you walk in the room.
Remember that the moment you walk in the room, you are making an impression. Within seconds of meeting you, the interviewer already has an idea of what kind of person you are. Here are a few tips on how to maintain a positive impression: wear minimal jewelry, keep a neat look (combed hair, clean finger nails, clean shaven, nice shoes, etc.), dont chew gum, and carry a light briefcase or portfolio case. Also, wearing dark colors is a good way to conceal wrinkles and possible stains in the fabric. So when shopping for suits, think dark rather than light. And a nice suit for occasional use can go a long way!
4. Establish a Common Ground
During the interview, when appropriate, try to bond with the interviewer on not only a professional, but a personal level. Tactfully find out something about them: do they have kids, were they raised in Key West, do they watch The Real Housewives of Miami? etc. This one goes beyond the interview stage. If you do get hired, you have to interact with these people every day! Dont make it a grind, the work itself is already hard enough. Make this element as painless and easy as possible and try connecting with your coworkers on a social level.
Now if you find you have nothing in common. Clearly, you are not looking hard enough. Everyone has at least something in common. Now some have more than others, but at the very least you both attended an elementary school. Start from there. Once you get the ball rolling, its gravy.
5. Mentally prepare yourself
A few days prior, imagine having the interview. Imagine yourself in the room, answering questions, and winning the job. If you can see it, you can do it. Picturing the process a head of time will help calm you and tighten your focus. You will see your goal and how to get it. No matter the end result, at least you go in positively and calmly.
Preparation is key. If you know about the interview a week ahead of time, start preparing then. With each small action, you are unknowingly desensitizing yourself to the entire process. Practice going over the questions in your head and coming up with responses. If you already know the answers, you will have them ready to go when the interview begins. Avoid going in cold without any type of prep, it will show!
6. Do Your Homework
Prior to the interview, read up as much on the company as possible. This includes knowing the companys history, mission, and core values. What do they want to accomplish? And better yet, how can you help them accomplish that? Essentially, why should they hire you? Now if you study up and know what theyre looking for, you will know how to answer these questions.
If the questions theyre asking throw you through a loop, you might not be right for the job. But this is all part of the pre-interview process as well. If over the phone this job sounds like a nightmare and youre not up to it, then get out of it. Stop the issue in its tracks before it grows legs. It is on you the applicant to take an interest in where you work. So do your best to learn what you can, especially before the interview.
7. Dont be Afraid to Ask Questions
Now if you get lost at any point during the interview, dont be afraid to ask a follow up question to clarify. The hiring agent wont tell you, but this is part of what theyre looking for. They want you to ask questions if you dont get it. This demonstrates good social skills and that you want to work with them. On the flip side, not asking questions could cause you to get completely off-track and subsequently blow the interview. Because if you are completely lost it could be mean two things: either you dont get it or you werent paying attention. Neither are good!
Now dont go overboard and ask impertinent questions. Like, where do you guys keep the rubber bands? Remember, there is such a thing as a dumb question. Before you ask it, go over it in your mind and test it. If it sounds appropriate, go ahead and ask it. You can probably trust your instincts on this one.
8. Be Confident but Composed
For the interview, remain poised without appearing overconfident. Which means avoid saying things like Im sure I can do the best job here. While this might be true, you just dont say that. No one likes a show-off and it is good social etiquette to remain humble. Not to mention that your coworkers will appreciate this type of humility later. These are people you have to work with every day.
However, dont act like you arent up to the task. Employers are always looking for eager and competent employees. Even if you are unprepared for your responsibilities, make it evident that you would be willing to try. So find that happy medium and tone down whatever necessary. This includes strutting into the interview to imaginary theme music or walking in wearing a shirt with I am Legend printed on it. If you really are, you dont need a shirt to tell you that.
9. Arrive On Time
Its usually good to show up 10 to 15 minutes before the interview. This will give you time to check-in, sit down, and calm your nerves. Also, if the company has a preliminary questionnaire or paperwork for you to fill out, this will give you time to do it. Not to mention that showing up tardy to an interview is just unprofessional. Punctuality is a reflection on you and your work ethic. So be prompt!
Most companies abide by a strict schedule. If you show up late, youre inconveniencing them and disrupting that schedule. Not to mention setting a bad tone for yourself going forward. At all costs, you want to avoid the label as the late person. Try leaving home earlier and check traffic reports. Do anything within your power to arrive on time. This is also a habit, you should just kick in general.
10. Practice Beforehand
The night before, either with a friend, family member, or simply yourself; find a way to practice answering questions that will arise during the interview. Now of course it is impossible to match the exact pace of the real interview, but at the very least you will be prepared to answer the necessary questions in quick succession. Going to into an interview cold is never a good idea. Its like a running a marathon without stretching. For the interview you need to be loose and be able to respond quickly when prompted. Being under prepared only makes you look sloppy.
Practice itself cannot be undercut. The act of practicing literally makes us better at everything. Like for instance, would Jay-Z be such a successful performer/entrepreneur if he didnt study his craft and business? No. Now a lot can be said for having natural savvy, but practicing gives you a leg up regardless. You want to be the most prepared person in that room.
11. Know the Job You Are Applying for
It would be silly to show up for a job you know absolutely nothing about. So if youre interviewing for an accountant position, make sure youre good with your numbers and that its the job you want. Check the confusion at the door! You dont want to get backed into a corner just by the job description. That should be the easy part. You want to have ample familiarity with the position so you can devote your time to listening to the details of the job.
Some job descriptions can be vague. Like a position advertised as driver for example. Is this a job for a valet, transporter of chickens, truck driver, etc? So clarify this with the employer from the beginning, make sure you know exactly what youre getting into. You dont want to have to quit after a few weeks because you misinterpreted the meaning of special consultant.
12. Maintain Good Eye Contact
This next point is very important! When in the interview room, do not be looking at the wall! You should be looking at the person sitting directly across from you. Maintaining strong eye contact is crucial to your success. It shows that youre present in the interview and that you are being attentive to everything the interviewer is saying. When they begin to doubt your attention is when they cross your name off the list. Its when you dont get that call-back!
On top of that, good eye contact is good social protocol. People who make good eye contact are more likely to get positive feedback than those who dont. In addition, when you look a person in the eye, it triggers an emotional response in the brain. This can bring you closer to the person, creating an intimate bond. Poor eye contact is a sign of weakness and shows that you feel insecure or uncomfortable. Our eyes are biologically designed to connect others, so dont fight it.
13. Make Yourself Out to be the Best Candidate Within Reason
You may not be the ideal candidate for the position. But that doesnt mean that you cant showcase the heck out of the qualities you do have! When answering questions regarding your strengths and weaknesses, be honest without selling yourself short. You dont necessarily want to highlight your worst qualities, but you do want the interviewer to know what you would like to work on. For instance, try naming skills that arent your strongest, but are ones that you are trying to refine now. Showing that you are willing to improve is a good quality and one that employers look for.
If you bring to attention your greatest weakness, youre inviting unwanted scrutiny. Make a calculated decision about what personal follies you want to discuss and go from there. Really important, do not lie to the interviewer or recruiter about something not being an issue, when it is. They can tell when youre being dishonest. They see enough applicants to know genuine responses from fake ones. So be honest and answer that question to the best of your ability.
14. Know the Most Commonly Asked Interview Questions
Knowing the questions you will be asked in the interview will give you a leg up on the competition. Not knowing these questions will slow down the pace of the interview. And will take up more of the interviewers time than necessary. So be familiar with all of the general questions. Some of the most commonly asked questions include: Tell me more about yourself? What is your greatest weakness? What do you know about our company? How do handle high pressure situations?
And where do you see yourself in five years? Dont over think it. Provide quick and concise answers to these questions and you will do fine. Know your responses though. And dont trail off by making a stunning realization to yourself about an answer. Stay active in the interview and be prepared to fire answer after answer. Answering hypotheticals is an essential part of the process and make sure youre prepared for that. Knowing how you would handle X situation may not seem crucial. But in the interview, they like to plan ahead.
15. Be Armed with a Resume and References
Although this is information you probably provided for the online application, its pertinent and necessary to the interview. So make sure you bring a current resume and updated references. In addition to this just being standard protocol, it also helps the employer see if youre qualified. Past related work experiences on your resume indicate a lot as to your appropriateness to the position. Current and relevant references also aid the employer in evaluating whether you are the right type of person for the job. Bring both in hard copy form and youll be good!
Prior to the interview, round up your references and notify them that you are interviewing for a job and that they might get a call. If you dont let them know, they might be unnerved or give you a bad reference. In the job process you only want positive references, so ensure that by keeping references informed and with it. Also, spruce up the resume as needed. In most cases, the paper route you had in 96 can probably be removed from the application. Remember, the mere length of your resume doesnt get you the job. So dont be afraid to trim the fat where necessary.

50 Extraordinary Women You Won't Believe Actually Exist
Luke Chase
May 25th 2016
It's likely that the women in your day to day life are pretty "normal" in appearance. So when you see someone whose appearance differs from what you expect it to be, it can be kind of a shock. The ladies in the following slideshow are definitely far from average. Some of these women spent thousands of dollars on plastic surgery, tattoos, or body piercings. Others are born with strange birth defects such as excessive facial hair, a gigantic butt or even an 8 inch tongue. See for yourself!
Lauren Williams: 4 Foot Long Legs
Lauren Williams has the longest-known legs in the United States, with her eye-catching limbs measuring an incredible 49 inches from hip to heel. Lauren's height and long-legged genes can be attributed to her family as her father, mother and twin sisters are all 6ft or taller. She has US size 11 feet (UK size 10), and revealed that she can find it tricky to buy clothes that fit. When modelling, single Lauren - who has worked on campaigns for global brands such as Nike - does everything from sports and fitness to high fashion and swimwear.
Having played volleyball in college, as well as being extremely active, Lauren also enjoys shooting sporty campaigns. As well as modelling, Lauren works as an educator at a children's museum in Houston and enjoys travelling. When out and about, her striking looks and long limbs mean she gets comments about her legs on a daily basis.
Pixee Fox: Dangerously Small Waist
Swedish born Pixee Fox had already spent more than $80,000 on plastic surgery attempting to sculpt the perfect hourglass figure. But now she has taken her obsession even further by having 6 of her lower ribs removed - so she can shrink her waist to a record-breaking 14 inches. Pixee, from Sweden, said: "People often come up to me and say, "don't take this the wrong way, but you look like a cartoon" - but for me that's a compliment, that's what I want to achieve.
With 6 of her lower ribs removed, Pixee's lower internal organs, including the liver, have lost some of their natural protection - but she isn't worried. She said: "Before if I was in a car crash I would normally break my ribs. If that happened now I'm probably going to break my spleen instead. In total she has had four rhinoplasties costing $14,000; four breast augmentations of 200cc, 525cc, 800cc and 1400cc costing $28,500; two rounds of liposuction at $5,000; two upper eyelid surgeries at $6,000; a labiaplasty costing $4,000; a Brazilian butt lift at $9,000 and cool-sculpting, cheek injections, and lip injections at about $12,000.
Bethany Hamilton: One Armed Pro Surfer
Bethany Meilani Hamilton-Dirks is an American professional surfer who survived a 2003 shark attack in which her left arm was bitten off, but ultimately returned to-and was victorious in-professional surfing. On October 31, 2003 Hamilton, aged 13 at the time, went for a morning surf along Tunnels Beach, Kauai, with best friend Alana Blanchard, Alana's father, Holt, and brother Byron. Around 7:30 a.m., with numerous turtles in the area, she was lying on her surfboard with her left arm dangling in the water, when a 14-foot tiger shark attacked her, severing her left arm just below the shoulder.
Despite the trauma of the incident, Hamilton was determined to return to surfing. Three weeks after the incident, she returned to her board. Initially, she adopted a custom-made board that was longer and slightly thicker than standard and had a handle for her right arm, making it easier to paddle, and she learned to kick more to make up for the loss of her left arm. After teaching herself to surf with one arm, on January 10, 2004, she entered a major competition. She now uses standard competitive performance short-boards. The broken surfboard that Hamilton was riding during the attack is on display at the California Surf Museum
Mayra Hills: World's Largest Fake Breasts
Mayra Hills - also known as Beshine - measures at 59-28-36 and says she's the proud owner of the world's largest fake breasts. And it's not hard to believe her claim to fame, considering each of her breasts have 10,000 cc of saline implants and weigh 20 pounds a piece! As you can imagine, it's difficult for Beshine, who wears a size 32Z bra, to find clothes that fit, so the German-born woman has a lot of her items custom-made.
But bra shopping isn't her only woe. She can no longer tie her own shoes and has run into trouble when she's knocked things over with her chest - but it appears she's satisfied with her body, troubles and all. "Some people maybe think the sheer size of my t-ts bring too many handicaps in my everyday life, but hey, having big boob problems is amazing," she wrote on her blog.
Anastasiya Shpagina: Real Life Anime Girl
It's official, this real-life anime trend has gotten completely out of hand. Hardly a day goes by that we don't stumble upon some photos of girls going to any lengths in order to look like real live anime characters. Today's example, Anastasiya Shpagina, an Ukrainian girl who has even taken a Japanese name - Fukkacumi. 19-year-old Anastasiya (Nastya) Shpagina has been called "the new Barbie" by national news outlets, but she later revealed she's striving to become a real-life Japanese anime character, not a doll. She even posted "I am not like a doll, a doll is like me."
Apparently, Nastya has been passionate about makeup even as a young child, always experimenting with it in the mirror. Over time she also developed a thing for Japanese cartoons and it was only a matter of time before she started using her make-up artist skills to transform herself into a real-life anime girl. But just putting on makeup wasn't enough to attain that coveted look, so she decided to lose weight in order to seem more genuine. At 1.58-meters-tall, Anastasiya weighs just 39 kilos and is trying to lose one more in order to look just right.
Chanel Tapper: World's Longest Tongue
The longest female tongue measures 9.75 cm (3.8 in) from the tip to the middle of lip and was achieved by Chanel Tappe on 29 September 2010. Chanel, from Houston, US, shot to fame aged 13 when she was spotted sticking out her monster tongue in a YouTube video. In September Guinness invited Chanel to Los Angeles where they measured her tongue and she narrowly beat two other female contenders to the record.
She said: "I have always been silly and goofy. I love sticking my tongue out at people. I started doing that back in school. I've never had a problem with having a long tongue, it's just fun." Chanel now has set her sights set on Hollywood after finishing her studies. She said: "I'd love to be in a movie. I'm certainly pretty dramatic, so I think I could have the acting gift. "Really, I'd love to meet Adam Sandler, he's my favorite."
Sarah Massey: World's Largest Butt
Sarah Massey would be just another 33-year-old mother-of-two from Chicago - if it weren't for the fact that she also happens to have the world's biggest butt. Though not officially recognized by the prudes at Guinness, Massey's massive 7-foot wide keister requires a pair of 10XL trousers that would comfortably fit all of the Kardashian sisters combined.
Massey insists the condition that resulted in her museum-sized bubble butt is hereditary - "there's nothing I can do about it," she says - but that her love of ice cream certainly contributed to its maintenance. Massey would still like to lose some weight, but says she now has a new-found appreciation for her natural assets, and fervently defends them against anyone who calls them fake. "Some people can't believe one person can have this much butt," she told Barcroft. "Because I've got a relatively small frame on top they say, 'that can't be real.' I carry this weight with me all the time, everywhere I go, it's definitely not fake. Big booties are just in my blood."
Zlata: Extreme Flexibility
Russian-born former gymnast Zlata, 29, posed in leather and lingerie to adopt a series of poses that seem to defy every law of biology. Zlata, who now lives in Germany, is able to create astounding shapes with her body and is so flexible she can cram herself into a 50cm square box. One of her favorite acts is to bend backwards at a 90 degree angle, so the back half of her hands touch her feet and she can also peer through her own legs from behind.
Zlata's gift of flexibility was discovered when she was four years old and by six she was training as a contortionist at a circus school. She has a rare condition which makes all her tendons extremely pliable, which helps in her profession. The former gymnast now spends most of her day working out and training for shows around the world. In 2011 she set the Guinness World Record for the most beer bottles opened in a minute using only your feet.
Kim Goodman: Eyeball Protrusion
Kim Goodman is a woman who is able to pop her eyes out of her eye sockets by 12 millimeters (0.47 inches). She holds the world record for the farthest eyeball protrusion. She lives in Chicago, Illinois. She discovered her eyeball popping talent one day when she was hit on the head with a hockey mask. Her eyeballs popped out much further than usual and ever since that day she could pop them out on cue, as well as when she yawns.
She has appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman. In 2004, Goodman was included by Guinness World Records in their 50th anniversary list of top ten "feats" of all time. Kim originally had the record for being able to extend her eye balls beyond her eye sockets by 10mm. This was matched a few years by a new contender, but when Kim was re-measured she found she could now reach 12mm - breaking her own record and keeping the title.
Natalia Partyka: One Armed Table Tennis Champ
Natalia Partyka (born 27 July 1989) is a Polish table tennis player. Born without a right hand and forearm, she participates in competitions for able-bodied athletes as well as in competitions for athletes with disabilities. Partyka reached the last 32 of the London 2012 Olympic women's table tennis. Partyka began playing table tennis at the age of seven. She won her first international table tennis medal in 1999 at the disabled World Championships. At the age of 11, she competed at the 2000 Summer Paralympics in Sydney, becoming the world's youngest ever Paralympian. In 2004, she won a gold medal in the singles event and silver in the team event at the Athens Paralympics.
Partyka competed for Poland both the 2008 Summer Olympics and the 2008 Summer Paralympics in Beijing - one of only two athletes to do so, the other being Natalie du Toit in swimming. They were her third Paralympic Games, and her first Olympics. Competing in class 10 at the Beijing Paralympics, she won gold by defeating China's Fan Lei by three sets to nil. In 2008, she won a gold medal in the singles event and a silver in the team event at the Beijing Paralympics, repeating her Athens Paralympics result.
Supatra Sasuphan: World's Hairiest Girl
Her nicknames may include "wolf girl" and "monkey face". But 11-year-old Thai girl Supatra Sasuphan today insisted that she was after being officially recognised as the world's hairiest girl. Although the schoolgirl from Bangkok has faced merciless teasing at school, Supatra says being given a Guinness World Record for her hair has helped her become extremely popular. "I'm very happy to be in the Guinness World Records! A lot of people have to do a lot to get in," she said. "All I did was answer a few questions and then they gave it to me."
Supatra is one of just 50 known sufferers of Ambras Syndrome - caused by a faulty chromosome - to be documented since the Middle Ages. Before the disease was understood, sufferers were branded "werewolves." She has thick hair growing over her face, ears, arms, legs and back. Even laser treatment has failed to stop the hair growth. But while most sufferers have been shunned, Supatra has gradually been embraced by her community, and became a popular and outgoing child.
Jasmine Tridevil: Woman With 3 Breasts
There's really no other way to put this so we're just going to dive in: Meet Jasmine Tridevil. She has three breasts. Tridevil (no that's not her real name, but that's what she wants to go by) is a 21-year-old licensed massage therapist and die-hard Criss Angel fan from Florida who decided to undergo a shocking and controversial $20,000 surgery to add a third breast to her chest.
Tridevil also stated that she's hoping to bank a reality show from this, and has already put the wheels in motion to make something happen. "I was making really good money [being a licensed massage therapist] but now I'm trying to star in a reality show instead. I don't like that job," she shared, and later added, "My whole dream is to get this show on MTV. I hired a camera crew individually, so I'm the producer of this show right now."
Lyudmila Titchenkova: World's Longest Neck
Lyudmila Titchenkova is a 16-year-old living in the city of Nikolaev, Ukraine. After she turned 10, Lyudmila's parents noticed that their daughter's body began developing at an accelerated growth rate. She was taller and had longer arms than other children her age, but of particular concern was the length of her neck and abnormal curvature of her spine.
As it got to the point where Lyudmila began feeling embarrassed to go out because of her appearance, her parents took her to the hospital, where she was diagnosed with Marfan Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder of the connective tissue that can affect many parts of the body, most often the heart, blood vessels, bones, joints and eyes. In Lyudmila's case, the disorder affected the connective tissue in her spine, causing it to curve at an angle of 30 degrees. This seems to be a rather uncommon symptom of the disorder, which usually affect people's arms, legs and fingers. After undergoing corrective surgery and extensive rehabilitation to straighten her spine, Lyudmila can now live normally and says she wants to study for her future without letting herself be affected by her disorder.
Abigail and Brittany Hensel: Girl With Two Heads
Abigail Loraine "Abby" Hensel and Brittany Lee Hensel (born March 7, 1990) are dicephalic parapagus twins, meaning that they are conjoined twins, each of whom has a separate head, but whose bodies are joined. They are highly symmetric for conjoined twins, giving the appearance of having just a single body without marked variation from normal proportion. In fact, several vital organs are doubled up; each twin has a separate heart, stomach, spine, lungs, and spinal cord.
In conversation, the twins are clearly distinct persons, with distinct likes and dislikes. Their preferences in food, clothing color, etc., differ. Some of their clothes are altered by their seamstress so that they have two separate necklines in order to emphasize their individuality. They will usually have separate meals, but sometimes will share a single meal for the sake of convenience (e.g. each taking a bite of the same hamburger). Abby is better at mathematics, and Brittany is better at writing. For tasks such as responding to email, they type and respond as one, anticipating each other's feelings with little verbal communication between them.
Natasha Veruschka: Sword Swallower
Natasha Veruschka has the world record for most swords swallowed simultaneously by a female. She swallowed 13 swords, each at least 38.1 cm (15 in) long, at the 3rd Annual Sideshow Gathering and Sword Swallowers Convention in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, USA, on 3 September 2004. Natasha was born in India of white russian and british heritage. She has lived, studied, and performed her art around the world and also speaks several different languages.
Natasha now lives in New York City. She is an amazing performer who uses many different types of swords in her act or as she likes to say "Swords On The Menu." The swords on the menu are - "The Red devil" 29 inches long, "The Big Sword" 27 1/2 inches long, "The Bradshaw Sword" 25 inches long, "The Sai Weapons" two 24 inch long eight-sided weapons of steel. Natasha trained with a "Sai Master" in order to use them in her act. Also on the menu is the unbelieveable "Sword Sandwich" where she swallows 13-22 inch long swords simultaneously.

Whether it's the first month of the year or the dog days of summer, there are always some people at the gym that are determined to meet their newly set goals even if it means sidetracking you from yours.
Not only are they a distraction—working out in polo shirts and doing curls in the squat rack—they're an outright danger, sneaking in and taking the equipment you need and blocking your path. Imagine holding 70-pound dumbbells and hurrying back to your bench, only to find some dude stretching on it—not fun.
Of course, after a while, most of them will be gone and the gym will once again be the dungeon of sweat and solitude you know and love, and you can resume your routine without further interruption. But you shouldn't have to wait for that. That's why we designed the ultimate plan for avoiding gym crowds while still getting in the workouts you need to add slabs of muscle.
Here are our best tips for navigating a crowded gym:
1. Stake Your Claim
When you see the piece of equipment you want open—go for it and just grab it. Toss your towel over it and you're golden for the duration of your workout. For example, the first workout is called Squat Rack Day because everything you'll do will revolve around that apparatus. Some exercises will involve the rack specifically—such as the squat and inverted row—while others, such as the pushup and single-leg squat, can simply be done in the same space. (Note: The last exercise on that day is a hanging leg raise, so look for a squat rack that has a chinning bar built into it-otherwise, you may have to wait for one to open up elsewhere.) Aside from changing weights, you barely have to move your feet the whole routine.
The second workout is Bench Day. Find an adjustable bench and set up camp. (Again, you'll have to go to the dumbbell rack and back a few times to change weights, so make sure your gym towel holds your spot.)
The third workout, Floor Day, is the simplest of all: Just find a spot on the floor. Aside from changing dumbbells again, there's no equipment needed.
An Alternate Route
Not having to run around the gym is a great time-saver, which we've improved upon by organizing the exercises as alternating sets. Probably the single best method of speeding up a workout while working the most muscles, alternating sets send you back and forth between sets of two exercises. For instance, if the pair is stepups and bench presses, you'll do the stepups and rest, then hit the bench presses and rest again. Notice that the exercises work unrelated muscle groups (in this case, legs and chest). That means each muscle group will have ample time to recover before it's worked again, allowing you to lift heavier weights and ultimately stimulate more muscle on your next set.
Weight for Anyone
You'll notice that the rep range for most of the exercises is broad (six to 10, 10 to 20, etc.), which allows you to determine how intensely you train from set to set. For example, if you're feeling tired or sluggish one day, you may opt to go lighter and aim for 10-rep sets (a good number for pure size gains). On the other hand, if the gym is particularly crowded, but you're feeling strong and focused, you might decide to let 'er rip and go heavy for six reps (a better strength workout). The more reps you perform, the longer the set will last. (Note: You can choose how heavy you want to lift from one exercise to the next, one set after another-you don't have to commit beforehand to low reps or high reps for every exercise.)

Whether we like it or not, access to the internet is becoming increasingly important in our lives, and once embraced, it can open up a world of possibilities. Lesley Tate looks at how libraries are helping people in rural areas to become computer literate.
NAVIGATING the internet with confidence is increasingly important in our everyday lives, from shopping and banking to applying for bus passes and social care issues.
This can particularly be true in rural areas like Craven where the internet can help people to access services that may not be readily available on their own doorsteps and in the old days would require a phone call at the very least, or a long trip into town.
Members of staff at the district's libraries see this in their daily work with people coming along to use library computers to apply for disabled parking badges or bus passes and to inquire about a range of subjects, including housing, health and social care.
But in the UK 11 million people have no digital skills, and almost two thirds of those are 65 or older. That proportion can be higher in rural areas, which means people can miss out on a quick, easy way to access everything from shopping to leisure to booking adult learning courses or reporting a problem on the road.
For more than 15 years, North Yorkshire County Council's Adult Learning and Skills Service (ALSS) and Library and Information Service in Craven have helped people get online and bridge the digital divide. Now, they are working together to help people in rural communities get online.
Julie Jones, programme coordinator with the ALSS, said: "Libraries are an ideal venue – already a community hub, and trusted safe space, there are PCs that the public can use and free wi-fi. Staff have plenty of experience of delivering and facilitating IT help."
John Frankland, service development officer with the library service, added: "As well as providing help with computers, we want the sessions to bring people together. The tone of the sessions is friendly and relaxed, where people can share stories and ideas and support each other over tea and biscuits."
Cllr Chris Metcalfe, the council's executive member for Library and Information Services, said the sessions not only helped people learn vital internet skills, but got them together.
"Becoming better informed about the internet and how easy it is to access can only benefit people, no matter what their age or circumstances. And the sessions being offered in Craven libraries have the bonus of bringing the opportunity to meet people and make new friends."
In January, weekly help sessions were launched at Ingleton library. They are open to anyone wanting to ask computing questions, from how to get online or use and iPad to shopping and finding a job. People can drop in and out of sessions as and when they like - there is no issue about signing up for a course. Some sessions will focus on a specific topic with a small group and will range from researching family history to making greetings cards and using the internet safely and effectively.
Carol Mckevitt, a teacher with the ALSS, said: "The Tuesday afternoon session is one the highlights of my week. The environment is relaxed and fun, and people bounce off one another. People are not just learning about computers and the internet, they're making friends as well."
Regular attendee Carole Scott said: "It's fun, very enjoyable. I have a much better appreciation of how my iPad works, and I am less scared of using it than I was."
Roger Preston, another regular, added: "There is more you can do with computers than I thought. The sessions have opened up the possibilities of what you can do online."
Library IT volunteer Rick Bamford enjoys the challenge and variety. "It's given me the confidence to improve my own ICT skills, and I feel a valued member of the community." Rick feels helping at the sessions bolsters his CV, and hopes it will lead to further volunteering and paid work.
Following the success of the Ingleton sessions, a new drop-in digital skills hub has started at Settle library on Wednesday afternoons. Led by adult learning teacher Rachel Currie, the hub takes the mystery out of computers and the internet. Rachel said: "The sessions will be just as relaxed and fun as the ones at Ingleton library. People can learn at their own pace, and find out about the exciting things you can do using technology."
All other libraries in Craven offer IT support. At Bentham, on the last Thursday of the month is a computer club, run by Friends of Bentham Library (FoBL). Craven District Councillor and FoBL chair and volunteer Cllr Linda Brockbank said: "It's very low-key, friendly and definitely not technical. Simplicity is the best way to learn and we keep it simple and enjoyable."
Cross Hills and Skipton libraries also offer regular one-to-one support from IT volunteers.
At Skipton IT Buddies runs on Thursdays, from 2pm to 4pm and on Fridays from 11am to 1pm.
All these sessions are free and friendly and everyone is welcome - all people have to do it contact their library.
Now is an ideal time to get involved, as this week is Get Online Week and will see events take place across the country. In the last decade, the campaign has helped almost 500,000 people discover the benefits of getting online.
Whether you want help making better use of the internet to find work or save money, or support getting a friend or family member online, there'll be an event near you.

Re: FREELOVE-THORNTON, NY, early 1800s
In reply to:
FREELOVE/SPRAGUE Michigan 1800's
I have a FREELOVE-THORNTON family from Cattaraugus Co, NY - and surrounding counties.
Caroline Freelove Thornton, b 1818, Senecca Co, NY, she was my 2nd great aunt.Siblings were:Angeline Ellen, b 1814 (my line), Pauline, probably the oldest, Samuel A., b 1821, Nathan N., b 1824, and possibly another son, Parley or Alonzo.I do not know who the father was.I have old information indicating her mother MAY have been Barbara Place.
I have a Thornton family as follows:
1850 NY cencus, Machias, Cattaraugus Co - all b in NY
Parley - age 42, ALMIRA - age 39, Ann E. - age 20, John - age 18, Anson - age, Addison - age 10, Amanda - age 8, Henry Allen - age 27 (??), Lovina - age 5/12.
I do not know the parents of either Parley or Almira Thornton.
Angeline Ellen Thornton married Israel C. Smith.She died in 1858 and is buried in Brewer's Cem., Machias, Cattaraugus Co, NY - next to Lyman and William Thornton, both died in 1850, sons of P. and A. Thornton.
I know this is a long shot, but FREELOVE is a unique name.Parley is a unique name, and I'm not seeing it much in the Thornton line.There is a B. Parley FREELOVE in the 1880 cencus, b abt 1842 in NY.

Hello my fellow CCers!! I am in need of a butter rum cake and or filling recipe. I have a 8" cake due and I do not have a recipe Any suggestions? Thank you In advance!!
This a very good rum cake recipe. I used it for my brother's birthday and he loved it. I used real rum (no extracts and no substitutions). I used the glaze as specified in the recipe. It was an all time favorite.
Thank you! What would you suggest for a frosting? this will be an 8" decorated cake?
I don't know maybe something not too sweet. With the icing is perfect so it's hard for me to think on adding something else.
Hmm.... I will have to think on that. Possibly a bettercreme with a butter rum flavoring? Hmm.... any other suggestions anyone??
i like my rum cake with lime curd filling... if you want to do just a buttercream maybe lime, praline, or I think creme brule (made with the coffee creamer) would be delicious
The last rum cake I made, I used a mixture of SMBC flavored with Whaler's Vanilla Rum and a shortening-based buttercream. It was so good!
My favorite rum cake recipe is this Almost Tortuga one:
http://www.recipezaar.com/108524 but I've used the Bacardi one, and it's really nice as well.
Thanks a lot for sharing that recipe. I used Bacardi rum too.
Thank you ladies I was wondering....the recipes all call for a bunt cake pan, but I want to do this in two 8"rounds. Will this work?
Thank you ladies I was wondering....the recipes all call for a bunt cake pan, but I want to do this in two 8"rounds. Will this work
It's worked fine for me. The Bacardi recipe I used a few years ago in a sheet cake pan; the Tortuga one I made recently in two 6" rounds and one 4" round.
Good luck!

Grandma's Cottage was great. A nice space to get away and quiet area. Tub, fireplace, and array of hot beverages were a treat. Deb was a great host and brought breakfast in the morning and even brushed snow off our car and walkway. Animals a plus too. thanks!Leila2015-12-31T00:00:00Z
The cottage was perfect! Exactly what my husband and I were looking for and there were no surprises. The descriptions and pictures matched everything perfectly. We loved all the little touches. Chocolates on the bed, tons of coffee and tea to choose from, canldes, even toothbrushes and toothpaste in the bathroom.Natalie2016-10-03T00:00:00Z
My boyfriend and I had an absolutely wonderful time staying at Grandma's Cottage. Deb was the perfect host - she gave us complete privacy while also answering any questions we had right away. We loved the jacuzzi tub (it's even bigger than it looked in the pictures!), the fireplace, and the outdoor fire pit. Visiting with the alpacas and horses was also fun! Brunch completely exceeded our expectations - so much food, and it was all delicious. Perfect romantic getaway. We are telling everyone we know about it and will definitely be back. Thanks, Deb!Amanda2016-03-24T00:00:00Z
We stayed one night at the cottage and it couldn't have been better. The animals were so sweet and we loved walking around the property. The gazebo was amazing for a late night bonfire! It really felt like a home away from home. You could tell that Deb and Mike have put in a lot of love and effort into this B and B!Maureen2016-09-04T00:00:00Z
We loved our month-long stay at Grandma's Cottage. Deb and Mike made us feel like family, not just guests; they went out of their way to make our vacation great. They even had a crib and play pen for our 7-month old baby. Breakfast was a delicious surprise every morning. My wife and I especially loved the screened-in Gazebo. We had a great stay and I highly recommend this B&B. Thanks!Rhonda2014-07-22T00:00:00Z
What a great find! Everything was perfect, and the hosts made us feel very welcome. We will be back!Joe2014-10-12T00:00:00Z
Deb was wonderful and very helpful and accommodating. I LOVED the tub. It was great after working, to come and soak in that tub. Quaint place. One that I will return to given the opportunity.Lynn2016-04-14T00:00:00Z
Looking for a quiet, cozy getaway with just you two or a couple of little ones? This is the place. The paths are mowed, the fire is ready to light and the country breeze wafts the frilly curtains while the horses munch grass in the pasture a stone's throw away. We hope to return some time.Thomas2017-05-18T00:00:00Z

Ginny's Airbnb was an exceptionally good value. Ginny was a gracious host and very accommodating when we wanted to extend our stay an extra 4 days. I liked everything about the house, but my favorite feature was the patio overlooking the lake. Ginny's Airbnb is located in a community with a mix of summer homes and permanent residences. Typical of such communities, the neighbors are very friendly. We even got an offer from a neighbor to take a tour of the lake in his speed boat.Tre2016-05-28T00:00:00Z

We had an incredibly relaxing and wonderful weekend at Sarah's lake house. The house was comfortable and spacious and we loved being able to take the kayaks out on the lake. I really appreciated all of Sarah's clear instructions and guest guidebook. Sarah even left us s'more ingredients as a very sweet welcome. We hope to return next summer!Emma2015-09-13T00:00:00Z
The house was large and beautifully renovated with plenty of room at the indoor and outdoor tables for everyone. We enjoyed the view from the living room and the beautiful outdoor patio, both overlooking the lake. The game room and kayaks were used daily. Our host provided all of the information we needed for the house and local area. The cabinets were labeled and the kitchen was fully stocked, so cooking was easy. We had a fantastic time and would work with our host again.Catherine2016-08-17T00:00:00Z
This house and the host were really exceptional. The house looks pretty much exactly like the photos. The star of the place is the area out front with the lovely view, grill, and big table to sit and gather. There is also a nice firepit by the lake, and we sat and made s'mores and watched the fireflies. The downstairs game room is also very nice, with great views and nice ping-pong and pool tables. The kitchen is exceptionally outfitted, with everything you need to cook. The drawers are also labeled with contents, which is an awesome touch. We did a LOT of cooking, and found essentially every tool we needed to make nice meals. Sarah was also very responsive and helpful. We had to make several changes, and she was easy to work with and quick to come up with solutions. This is a great house and host!Lee2016-06-23T00:00:00Z
Sarah was awesome!Jamie2015-10-15T00:00:00Z
We had a great experience at this house. The furnishings were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, condiments, oils, spices, etc.--more so than most homes. The wifi went down during our stay, but Sarah and Adam responded immediately to our request for help and got us back up and running in no time. Would definitely stay here again!Steve2016-05-14T00:00:00Z
I can't begin to share how much my large family enjoyed staying in the lake house! We spent the weekend here in celebration of my mother's 50th birthday and we never wanted to leave. As a host Sarah was responsive, communicative, and had everything we possibly could have needed ready to go for us. The space itself was large, clean, and beautifully designed. Would highly recommend!Amanda2015-10-19T00:00:00Z
Sarah was prompt in her responses and provided all the information required to a) get to the place and b) understand where we can find items (games or kitchen items or kayaks or anything else). The house was wonderful. It was clean and exactly how it is described on the website. Sarah has 2 kayaks that are a must use if the weather is nice. The house also has a fire pit, grill, and infinite entertainment options such as TT, pool table, dart game, board games, kids games, etc. The house has 3 bedrooms on the main floor which can easily accommodate 8 people. The lower floor has 1 bedroom which can accommodate 3 people easily. There is 2 bathrooms on the main floor and 1 bathroom on the lower level.Ninad2016-05-18T00:00:00Z
Myself and a group of friends stayed here over New Years, and we had a fantastic time! The home is modern, clean, filled with stuff to keep you busy (pool, ping pong, games, etc.), and very comfortably slept all 12 of us! I highly recommend booking a reservation here if you're going to be in the Waterford, WI area, and I very much look forward to coming back here in the summer to enjoy the lake!Craig2016-01-02T00:00:00Z

Jordon is the best host ever!!!! He is so helpful and nice and warm, we did really have a good time there. The place is fantastic with the view and water activities. Jordon was so nice and treat us the drink as well as cook BBQ for us. He is more than amazing, I will recommend everyone to stay at his place.Na2016-06-02T00:00:00Z
Jordan est allé au-delà pour moi-même et les amis. Il a aidé avec toutes les questions que nous avions, a donné des infos sur les endroits autour de la ville, et était super sympa. Description de la liste est exacte.Elena2016-10-02T00:00:00Z
We stayed here for a team retreat; there were 5 of us and it was the perfect space for working and relaxing. The wifi was very good, and the dining table and outdoor space were both great environments to work in. The kitchen is really, really nice -- everything is updated with modern appliances. We did a lot of cooking so it worked out really well. We didn't use the kayaks, but Jordan did take us on a sunset boat ride and got the fire pit going for us. I wish we had stayed longer to take more advantage of the lake! The entrance to the lake is a little murky so I'm not sure if you could enter directly from the property to go swimming but there's a nice area for lounging right outside. Also, Captain the cat is very present and all over the house, but he was very sweet and friendly. Two of our guests took allergy medication prior to arriving and they were fine both days we were there, but you should still be comfortable with having a cat around because he is active! Thanks so much for hosting us!Emily2016-07-20T00:00:00Z
La maison et l'emplacement était incroyable, et la Jordanie sont allés au-dessus et au-delà pour rendre notre séjour agréable et sécurisée. Je recommande vivement d'y aller!Jade2016-07-25T00:00:00Z
Jordan nous a accueillis dans sa maison et était serviable avec toutes mes questions.Nathan2016-10-10T00:00:00Z
Listing description was accurate, lake was clean and nice.Julie2016-07-12T00:00:00Z
Jordan was a wonderful host, super friendly and kind. His house was really clean and well maintained and we fully used the fire pits and kayaks. He also has a great kitchen to cook in. Captain the cat is also adorable and super friendly to strangers! The beds were extremely comfortable and there was plenty of space for us to all hang out inside and out. We did have two problems that weren't part of the plan - the dock was broken and so we could not use it to take the kayaks in and out (a few of us almost fell in) and there was a huge pile of trash that greeted us as we first walked up to the house (his shed had been damaged severely from a storm). Other than these two things the place was pretty great. Bummed that my first impression was damaged by the broken shed and dock. It just made the whole place look bad even though you can tell Jordan puts a lot of care into his home!Sarah2017-05-07T00:00:00Z
Jordan was an exceptional host! He made sure every detail was perfect prior to my arrival, was very helpful while I was coordinating my plans, and took the time to share some of his favorite spots in the area. Although I was in town for work, with such serene views of the water, my time at Jordan's Airbnb felt like a relaxing vacation. Beautiful home, amazing views, perfect host! I wouldn't change a thing. I can't wait to go back!Holly2016-05-30T00:00:00Z

Our stay was fantastic. The apartment was amazing. It was very spacious, yet cozy at the same time. The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. The view of the lake was great from the apartment and from the yard. The large yard was great for our kids to play in. We really enjoyed the fire pit and making smores at night. As great as all that was, what made our stay extra special was Collen and Jeff themselves. There were very attentive to all our needs. The welcome basket they made for us was very thoughtful. They set up a kiddie pool in the yard for our little ones on a very hot weekend. Jeff took us out on their boat for a swim in the lake. He was great with the kids, which we really appreciated. Colleen brought the kids some freeze pops which they really enjoyed. Overall, it was a great experience and a great weekend.Kevin2016-06-13T00:00:00Z
We had a wonderful time here. Colleen and Jeff are great hosts. It was very useful having a full kitchen to use, lots of things in town are within walking distance and the views on the lake are fantastic. Be sure and ask to play with their giant dogs!Peter2016-09-16T00:00:00Z
How did we get so lucky to find this place? Every detail was exceptional: caring hosts. a simplistic, functional design of the impeccably clean spacious rooms and comfort of the furniture. the ever changing view and the serenity we felt. Staying there was just what we needed to recharge!Suzee2016-09-05T00:00:00Z
Jeff and Colleen are warm hearted and very considerate hosts. Their home is relaxing and the location is just as described. Our stay included pleasant surprises. A delicious apple pie and a bottle of wine awaited us when we arrived. Thank you, Colleen and Jeff, for sharing your lovely place with us.Karen2017-05-14T00:00:00Z
Colleen was incredibly warm and welcoming for our stay last weekend. We were looking for a quiet, cozy getaway for the weekend and the Mukwonago Lake House Apartment did just the trick. The apartment was beautifully furnished and stocked with everything we needed (and then some)! From cooking in the well laid-out kitchen, to big screen netflix with surround sound, fun board games, and riding their paddle boat out on the beautiful lake, our stay was perfect. (Speaking of the lake, nothing beats waking up to that gorgeous, unobstructed view from the living room each morning). The town of Mukwonago was a charming escape for 2 city-dwellers looking for a change of pace. Thanks Colleen!Christopher2015-12-16T00:00:00Z
The Hostess, accommodations and setting were wonderful. The booking was easy, communications were timely and informative. Colleen met at the agreed upon time to provide a comprehensive overview of the lovely unit which faces the lake. My expectations were exceeded by Colleens hospitality and the accommodationsJeffrey2016-07-11T00:00:00Z
Colleen and Jeff are amazing and gracious hosts. This trip in particular will be memorable. My girl and I got engaged! The place is clean and really the perfect size. They had everything you need available. The fishing was great. Their yard was huge and very clean. The place itself was new. Full kitchen and the living room had a great tv and sound system. The bedroom was nice and the bed was very comfy. It was the perfect getaway at the perfect place. I can't recommend Colleen and Jeff enough. We will be back!Charles2016-06-20T00:00:00Z

My friends and I had a great time here! It's a little small, but for a four day trip with a bunch of close friends, it was absolutely perfect. There was more than enough sleeping area for everyone. Kitchen is great and stocked with any dishes you might need. There's a really nice dock that leads out to the lake. We were able to go canoeing, and that was really great. There's also a ping pong table in the garage. There's plenty to do and plenty of space for ten people. Definitely would recommend and come back!Courtney2015-09-07T00:00:00Z
My friends and I loved staying at this house. To be honest we had a hard time leaving because we had such a wonderful stay. The house was a tad smaller than I pictured, but with that being said it was still perfect for our big group because there were beds everywhere. The most pleasant surprise was how beautiful the stars were at night and how the lake looked at sundown. Also they have a ping pong table! It is a great place for a lake house get away. Peter was a great host. We recommend this house!Andrea2015-07-27T00:00:00Z
Peter was very responsive to questions. The house had several places to sleep. The lake out back was great. Very quiet but nice area. We greatly enjoyed our stay.Betsi2016-06-27T00:00:00Z
Thank you, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your lake home! Accommodations were perfect for our stay. Beautiful, great location, amazing sunsets from the deck & dock, & plenty of activities to keep the kids occupied...ping pong table, volleyball, football, & canoeing. Hope to return with my family.Dina2016-07-18T00:00:00Z

Stacy was a wonderful host! Her house was beautiful and she was great with communicating. She even left us a nice welcome treat basket! There were plenty of room for my whole family. House was clean and beds were really comfortable!! We had fun with the kids with the game room and with the sand bar area in the lake where they could swim. It was also relaxing fishing off the dock and enjoying the hot tub! The trip went by too fast and we are sad it's over! We love this house and hope to come back again!Elissa2016-07-30T00:00:00Z
Stacy did an incredible job hosting our group. She asked how many beds were to be made before we arrived and even provided us with a gift basket. She was both respectful and understanding throughout the reservation process. I would definitely recommend anyone looking to get away with a big group of people for the weekend to come here. The view was incredible, the yard was MUCH larger than expected (to me it was like a football field), the house was cozy, all of the trees around made it private, and it even had a hot tub and grill. Perfect to the T! Thank you again Stacy, and hopefully we can find sometime to reserve your retreat again in the future!Kevin2016-11-06T00:00:00Z
Stacy's beautiful home on Phantom Lake was exactly what our extended family was looking for, as we gathered from out of town for our father's memorial service and burial. There is so much character in this place!! Large enough to accommodate all (we had 16 one night), yet "cozy" feeling, with several smaller sitting areas to escape to for quieter times or more intimate conversation. My husband and I loved the upstairs master bedroom suite, which I must say has one of the most comfortable beds we've ever slept in! The kitchen is very well equipped with a really fun, ecclectic mix of plates and serving dishes. The extra long dining table was perfect in that we were all able to sit down together and enjoy family meals, memories and laughter. The welcome basket of goodies was a really nice touch, and it seemed as though there was something for every one of us in it. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this charming home.Tammy2016-08-23T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Heather's cottage was absolutely amazing! We had a great time and enjoyed our stay! Very relaxing! From the fireplace & fire pit to the walk on the lakefront, it was wonderful! Everyone really enjoyed the cottage. It was truly a home away from home! Aside from no internet( which I think made the trip even more enjoyable) our stay was spectacular! Next time we'll have to bring our boat!!!!Amanda2017-04-09T00:00:00Z

This was wonderful! We spent a long weekend on Browns Lake and Kurt and Kim made it feel like a home away from home. They even bought a kids fishing pole for our little one! We couldn't have been happier with the location, care of the house, and sense of being heard. This family has been doing this for a while and have become true pros. We can't wait to make it an annual visit!David2016-06-27T00:00:00Z
Great house on the lakeJino2016-11-13T00:00:00Z
We booked this home for a Girls Weekend, and it was perfect. We had 8 adults in our group, and there was plenty of space for everyone. The home is clean and well-furnished. The driveway can comfortably park 6 vehicles. Check in and check out is easy. The hosts sent us a door code before check in, and you simply need to walk through a basic checklist of deeds before check out (take out garbage, start dishwasher, etc.) Although I didn't contact the hosts during our stay, they were easy to reach and quick to respond when I had questions prior to our stay. I highly recommend this home for family and group trips.Catherine2017-02-12T00:00:00Z
What an amazing family vacation we had at Kurt and Kim's terrific lake home! We were welcomed into the immaculate house with a goodie bag and brief note about where to obtain more water sports equipment, if needed. Kurt and Kim were only a phone call away to answer questions and help with whatever was needed. There was something for everyone in our group...incredible fishing (right off the dock), boating, swimming, bird watching, stargazing, campfires, and so much more. My daughter told me that our grandkids talked about all they had seen and done all the way home to Ohio. Having access to the paddleboat, canoe, and kayak really added to all the fun and enjoyment. Although we weren't inside very much, there were also games and toys available in the loft. We take away a wonderful week full of treasured memories, and are hoping to return again next year so we can make more!Cynthia 2016-08-07T00:00:00Z
We had a really pleasant and relaxing stay at Kurt and Kim's cabin. The large space offers a very nice balance of the comfy and rustic, with cleanliness and modern convenience. Check-in is easy, and their handy guidebook is very helpful with everything else upon arrival. They're super communicative and helpful hosts. The electric oven does run a bit hot, but nothing you can't account for. Wish we could've stayed longer!Jim2016-01-10T00:00:00Z
Kurt & Kim were very accomodating in every way, quick to respond to questions, welcoming us with a bottle of wine and a welcome note on the chalkboard was very nice too! Letting us use all the different boating options was the key to a varied & fun activity time with all the age groups. Also having fishing poles, lots of kids games/toys was very helpful too!ellen2016-07-18T00:00:00Z
Great communicative hosts more than willing to accommodate our group. Definitely recommend for groups and families looking for some time away from the hustle and bustle of busy every day life.Leanne2017-04-29T00:00:00Z
This is an amazing place to get away and to enjoy being in nature. The hosts are very great people very communicative, and their place is wonderful!Ivana2017-04-22T00:00:00Z

John was a great host. He was very responsive and easy to work with. We had a great experience and would definitely consider staying here again in the future.David 2016-09-05T00:00:00Z
John was an excellent host for us; he reached out prior to our stay to let us know of options we could add that would enhance our stay, the check-in process was simple and he was flexible and accommodating in working with us to schedule both check-in and check-out. The house itself was perfect for us; clean, everything worked, all of the basics were there and John made special effort with some nice little touches that added to our stay. He was available throughout our stay if we needed anything and made sure to check in on us to make sure that we were comfortable with everything during. Though it's not visible from the pics on the website there's a nice big yard out back where we could play badminton/volleyball, set up a hammock, and have a campfire. The lake is very accessible right across from the house (30 steps or so from the front door!) and there was a big deck that was perfect for entertaining on a cool summer evening. What John doesn't tell you in the listing is that there's a great little bar next door and other places to get a bite and a drink right on the lake itself. When we come back next time we will definitely rent the pontoon boat to explore more of the lake. John told us we were one of the first vacation renters he's had for the house but he handled everything like a veteran and we will definitely come back for a longer stay sometime soon!Ben2016-07-12T00:00:00Z

Publisher's Description▼▲
Cincinnati Reds pitcher Frank Pastore stepped onto the mound in Dodger Stadium to throw another fastball—something he'd done thousands of times since childhood. But this time was different. The batter connected and the ball came rocketing back to the mound, shattering not only Frank's pitching elbow—but also his dream of getting "rich and famous" through Major League Baseball.™ As he walked to the training room, Frank found himself asking a God he didn't believe in, "Why is this happening to me?" There was no answer—at least not then. It was this injury that sent Frank, a lifelong atheist, on a journey that would change not only his mind but also his whole life—as a husband, father, friend, and troubled son. We all know the pain of shattered dreams. We've all wondered how to pick up the broken pieces after a crisis. We've all wondered, "Where is God?" when life hurts so bad. This is a story of how the fragments of broken dreams can be reassembled into even bigger and better things. A story of how, when life's disasters and difficulties knock us down, they don't have to destroy us. This is a story that shows how all of us can come to know we're in God's good hands. Even when we're shattered.
Author Bio▼▲
For the past six years, Frank Pastore has been the host of the most-listened to live Christian talk show in the country, heard weekday afternoons in Los Angeles from 4-7pm on 99.5 KKLA. For the past 31 years, he's been happily married to his bride Gina, and they've got two adult children, a boy and a girl, and one grandson, Michael. For seven years, he pitched in the big leagues with the Cincinnati Reds, before going to seminary at Talbot, and then later on, he did another master's degree in political philosophy at Claremont Graduate University. He's logged over 150,000 miles on his motorcycle (he gets to ride to work every day)... And maybe you've seen him on the food and travel cable channels for his exploits at the Big Texan Steak Ranch in Amarillo? For the past 21 years, until just recently, he's held the world-record for eating their steak faster than anyone else, in just 9 and a half minutes - a 72-ounce steak!
