We're all a little bit Irish come March 17, but if you're in the market for something more meaningful than a pint of green beer, hop aboard this delightful nine-day adventure to the Emerald Isle. Cliffs of Moher, Ring of Kerry, traditional music in a local pub… seriously, it doesn't get much more quintessentially Irish than this. We mix the essential sites and time in the villages to really round out the experience. Even if Ireland isn't the Old Country for you, this trip will make you feel as though you're back home.
What's Included
Your Discover Moment: Dublin. Cliffs of Moher visit. Walk along the Wild Atlantic Way. Ring of Kerry excursion. Cork orientation walk. All transport between destinations and to/from included activities.
Drink a pint and listen to traditional music in a local pub, visit the sites along the Ring of Kerry, walk some of the Wild Atlantic Way to the Cliffs of Moher, explore the cities of Dublin and Cork.
Dossier Disclaimer
The information in this trip details document has been compiled with care and is provided in good faith. However it is subject to change, and does not form part of the contract between the client and the operator. The itinerary featured is correct at time of printing. It may differ slightly to the one in the brochure. Occasionally our itineraries change as we make improvements that stem from past travellers, comments and our own research. Sometimes it can be a small change like adding an extra meal along the itinerary. Sometimes the change may result in us altering the tour for the coming year. Ultimately, our goal is to provide you with the most rewarding experience. Please note that our brochure is usually released in November each year. If you have booked from the previous brochure you may find there have been some changes to the itinerary.
VERY IMPORTANT: Please ensure that you print a final copy of your Trip Details to review a couple of days prior to travel, in case there have been changes that affect your plans.
Itinerary Disclaimer
While it is our intention to adhere to the route described below, there is a certain amount of flexibility built into the itinerary and on occasion it may be necessary, or desirable to make alterations. The itinerary is brief, as we never know exactly where our journey will take us. Due to our style of travel and the regions we visit, travel can be unpredictable. The Trip Details document is a general guide to the tour and region and any mention of specific destinations or wildlife is by no means a guarantee that they will be visited or encountered.
Additionally, any travel times listed are approximations only and subject to vary due to local circumstances.
Itinerary Notes
Please note that due to space restrictions aboard our transportation, there is a limit of one main piece of luggage per person. We recommend bringing an additional daypack for essentials and everyday items. Please visit the "What to take" section on the Trip details tab for more information.
All travellers booked on 2019 departures for this tour should plan to depart after 6pm on Day 9.
Group Leader Description
This G Adventures group trip is accompanied by one of our group leaders, otherwise known as a Chief Experience Officer (CEO). The CEO will be the group manager, leader and driver – this person is experienced in the routes travelled and will organize and lead the meal preparations and has experience in cooking a variety of local and international dishes for large groups.
As the group coordinator and manager, the aim of the CEO is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. While not being guides in the traditional sense, you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. They will also offer suggestions for things to do and to see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends.
We also use local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting – we think it's the best of both worlds.

Meals Included
8 breakfasts
Eating is a big part of traveling. Travelling with G Adventures you experience the vast array of wonderful food that is available out in the world. Generally meals are not included in the trip price when there is a choice of eating options, to give you the maximum flexibility in deciding where, what and with whom to eat. It also gives you more budgeting flexibility, though generally food is cheap. Our groups tend to eat together to enable you to taste a larger variety of dishes and enjoy each other's company. There is no obligation to do this though. Your CEO will be able to suggest favourite restaurants during your trip. On truck trips in Africa, aboard the M/S Expedition or our Galapagos yachts, while trekking in remote regions etc. food is included, plentiful and made of fresh local ingredients. The above information applies to G Adventures group trips. For Independent trips please check the itinerary for details of meals included. For all trips please refer to the meals included and budget information for included meals and meal budgets.
Private vehicle, walking.
Solo Travellers
We believe solo travellers should not have to pay more to travel so our group trips are designed for shared accommodation and do not involve a single supplement. Single travellers joining group trips are paired in twin or multi-share accommodation with someone of the same sex for the duration of the trip. Some of our Independent trips are designed differently and solo travellers on these itineraries must pay the single trip price.
Hotels/guesthouses (8 nts).
Joining Hotel
For details of your joining hotel please refer to your tour voucher, G Account, the G Adventures App or contact your travel agent.
Joining Instructions
Getting to Fleet Street Hotel:
The blue Aircoach and Airbus 747, both travel directly by road from Dublin International Airport to O'Connell Street. Journey times vary between 25-45 minutes. Avoid rush hour traffic (7.30 – 9.30am and 1700 – 1830) if at all possible. Prices are approximately €7 one-way and €12 with return. Taxi fare from the airport should cost approximately €25-30, depending on traffic and the number of people travelling to Temple Bar.
If you are arriving by train, you will probably arrive at either Heuston or Connolly Station. These are Dublin's principal railway stations. The Fleet Street Hotel is a short taxi ride from both stations. A feeder bus runs between Connolly and Heuston Station, passing through the city centre approximately every ten minutes.
If you are coming from Connolly station, ask the driver to stop the bus at Aston Quay. Get off the bus and walk towards O'Connell Bridge, take a right turn onto Westmoreland Street, and take the next right onto Fleet Street. We are located on the right hand side next door to the Palace Bar.
If you are coming from Heuston Station ask the driver to stop at Bachelors Walk, get off the bus and cross O'Connell Bridge, cross onto Westmoreland Street, and take a right turn onto Fleet Street.
Please note that day 1 is an arrival day and no activities have been planned on this day. Upon arrival to the city on day 1 (or earlier if you have booked pre-accommodation with us), please make your way to the joining hotel (note that check-in time will be in the afternoon). Once you arrive at the hotel, look for a note or bulletin board in the reception with a note from your CEO. This note will give the details of your Welcome Meeting on day 1 (usually between 5pm and 7pm), where you will get a chance to meet your CEO and other travellers, as well as learn more about how the tour will run. If you don't see a note, please ask reception for details!
If you are arriving later and will miss the Welcome Meeting, your CEO will leave a note at reception for you with any information you may need, and with morning instructions for the next day.
Arrival Complications
We don't expect any problems, and nor should you, but if for any reason you are unable to commence your trip as scheduled, please refer to the emergency contact details provided in this dossier and contact us as soon as possible. If you have a pre-booked transfer, and you have not made contact with our representative within 30 minutes of clearing customs and immigration, we recommend that you make your own way to the Starting Point hotel, following the Joining Instructions. Please apply to your travel agent on your return for a refund of the transfer cost if this occurs.

What to Take
We recommend using a backpack for your convenience, or a medium-sized suitcase if you prefer. A daypack is also essential for carrying everyday items. Space is limited on transportation, so there is a limit of one main piece of luggage per person. You will be responsible for carrying your own luggage. You must be prepared to carry your luggage up and down stairs, on and off transportation, and to hotels (max 15-20 mins.)
Should you require additional luggage storage in Dublin (i.e. if you have onward travel planned after this tour ends), there is the option to store your luggage at: Luggage Storage Dublin, 33 Bachelors Walk, North City, Dublin (approx. 4 mins walk from your Fleet Street Hotel). Cost: €5 per item per day. Please note, as these are open to the public, do not store valuables in bags that will be left in these public storage facilities.

Visas and Entry Requirements
Contact your local embassy or consulate for the most up-to-date visa requirements, or see your travel agent. It is your responsibility to have the correct travel documentation. While we provide the following information in good faith, it is vital that you check yourself and understand that you are fully responsible for your own visa requirements.
All visitors to the EU (European Union) and EEC (European Economic Community) countries require a valid passport (with a minimum 6 months validity). USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand passport holders do not need a visa to visit the Schengen area (see below), however they may not stay longer than three months in any 6-month period.
Please note that the UK and Ireland are NOT part of the Schengen agreement.
Spending Money
Every traveller is different and therefore spending money requirements will vary. Some travellers may drink more than others while other travellers like to purchase more souvenirs than most. Please consider your own spending habits when it comes to allowing for drinks, shopping and tipping. Please also remember the following specific recommendations when planning your trip.
Emergency Fund
Please also make sure you have access to at least an additional USD $200 (or equivalent) as an 'emergency' fund, to be used when circumstances outside our control (ex. a natural disaster) require a change to our planned route. This is a rare occurrence!
It is customary in Europe to leave a small tip for service providers, such as waiters, if you are pleased with the service (€1-2).
Tipping is an expected – though not compulsory – component of your tour program, and an expression of satisfaction with the persons who have assisted you on your tour. Although it may not be customary to you, it is of considerable significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels. There are several times during the trip where there is opportunity to tip the local guides. You may do this individually, or your CEO will offer to collect the money and tip as a group. Recommendations for tipping local guides would range from €3-5 per day, depending on the quality and length of the service; ask your CEO for specific recommendations based on the circumstances and culture.
Also at the end of each trip if you felt your G Adventures CEO did an outstanding job, tipping is appreciated. The amount is entirely a personal preference, however as a guideline €30-40 per person, per week can be used.

Safety and Security
Many national governments provide a regularly updated advice service on safety issues involved with international travel. We recommend that you check your government's advice for their latest travel information before departure. We strongly recommend the use of a neck wallet or money belt while travelling, for the safe keeping of your passport, air tickets, travellers' cheques, cash and other valuable items. Leave your valuable jewelery at home – you won't need it while travelling. Many of the hotels we use have safety deposit boxes, which is the most secure way of storing your valuables. A lock is recommended for securing your luggage. When travelling on a group trip, please note that your group leader has the authority to amend or cancel any part of the trip itinerary if it deemed necessary, due to safety concerns. Your Chief Experience Officer (CEO) will accompany you on all included activities. During your trip you will have some free time to pursue your own interests, relax and take it easy and explore at your leisure. While your CEO will assist you with options available in a given location, please note that any optional activities you undertake are not part of your itinerary, and we offer no representations about the safety of the activity or the standard of the operators running them. Please use your own good judgement when selecting an activity in your free time. Although the cities visited on tour are generally safe during the day, there can be risks to wandering throughout any major city at night. It is our recommendation to stay in small groups and to take taxis to and from restaurants, or during night time excursions.
Water based activities have an element of danger and excitement built into them. We recommend only participating in water based activities when accompanied by a guide(s). We make every reasonable effort to ensure the fun and adventurous element of any water based activities (in countries with varying degrees of operating standards), have a balanced approach to safety. It is our policy not to allow our CEOs to make arrangements on your behalf for water based activities that are not accompanied by guide(s).
Swimming, including snorkeling, is always at your own risk. Read more about travel safety for ways to further enhance your personal safety while traveling.
A Couple of Rules
Illegal drugs will not be tolerated on any trips. Possessing or using drugs not only contravenes the laws of the land but also puts the rest of the group at risk. Smoking marijuana and opium is a part of local culture in some parts of the world but is not acceptable for our travellers. Our philosophy of travel is one of respect towards everyone we encounter, and in particular the local people who make the world the special place it is. The exploitation of people in the sex trade is completely contrary to this philosophy. Our CEOs have the right to expel any member of the group if drugs are found in their possession or if they engage in any form of paid sex work.
Travel Insurance
Travel insurance is compulsory in order to participate on any of our trips. When travelling on a group trip, you will not be permitted to join the group until evidence of travel insurance has been sighted by your leader, who will take note of your insurance details. When selecting a travel insurance policy we require that at a minimum you are covered for medical expenses including emergency evacuation and repatriation. A minimum coverage of USD200,000 is required. G Adventures can provide you with the appropriate coverage. We strongly recommend that the policy also covers personal liability, cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects. Some tours include adventure activities that require extra coverage (e.g. crampon use); please review your itinerary and make sure that you are covered for all included activities. If you have credit card insurance we require proof of purchase of the trip (a receipt of credit card statement) with a credit card in your name. Contact your bank for details of their participating insurer, the level of coverage and emergency contact telephone number.

text: This Audi RS Q3 prototype seems to have xenon plus headlights as well as LED daytime running lights that are standard for the vehicle. It also has a gaping intake and black mesh that makes it different from the first RS models from 2013. The prototype still has the single exhaust pipe, much to the disappointment of many fans. However, the car does have 19 inch wheels. The new RS Q3 will have a 5 cylinder, 2.5 liter turbo engine.

Dinosaurs in Literature, Art & History
There Were Giants In The Earth in Those Days
Those Sophisticated "Cave Men"
Salvation. What Must You Do To Be Saved?
Here at s8int.com, we know that there's probably no less exciting "dinosaur" than the ankylosaur ---but here again we use this particular distinctive animal to prove that man and "dinosaur" co-existed, just as the Bible tells us.
Sure, we wish we had a first century example of a t-rex, but today we have to deal with what we have. (we do have more interesting examples on prior pages of this section)
The item shown below from several angles was offered for sale online. The company selling it "knows" that ankylosaurs died out 65 million years ago, according to scientists who study such things. Therefore, this has to be a toad, (for which there is some resemblance, we suppose) which did still exist more than 2,500 years ago.
They describe it first as a toad and then later in the text as a "reptile". Of course, toads are not reptiles, they are amphibians. Anklyosaurs were reptiles, however, but we're probably just being picky.
Below we provide; the auctioneer's full description, photos of the object in question, a picture of some actual toads, as well as a synopsis of what science says about the anklyosaur. You'll have to decide for yourself if this is a Colima culture toad, --or a dinosaur.
Frankly, we think toads will be insulted by the comparison.
Protoclassic, ca. 100 B.C. to A.D. 250.
Height: 5.3 in. (13.5 cm.); Length: 10.5 in. (26.7 cm.).
Protoclassic, ca. 100 B.C. to A.D. 250, with burnished reddish-brown slip. There are four rows of spiked protrusions in high relief along the length of the body, and one row across the head, thirty in all.
Coffee bean eyes, recessed nostrils, open mouth, spout as tail, and short legs create a reptile that seems pleased with his surroundings.
Condition: One spike is chipped, and there is a very small chip on the surface of the left side of the back. He is in otherwise excellent condition.
Provenance: From a Riverside County, California
Height: 5.3 in. (13.5 cm.); Length: 10.5 in. (26.7 cm.).

was a huge armored dinosaur, measuring about 25-35 feet (7.5-10.7 m) long, 6 feet (1.8 m) wide and 4 feet (1.2 m) tall; it weighed roughly 3-4 tons.
Its entire top side was heavily protected from carnivores with thick, oval plates embedded (fused) in its leathery skin, 2 rows of spikes along its body, large horns that projected from the back of the head, and a club-like tail.
It even had bony plates as protection for its eyes. Only its under-belly was unplated.
Flipping it over was the only way to wound it. Ankylosaurus had four short legs (the rear legs were larger than the front legs), a short neck, and a wide skull with a tiny brain.
Ankylosaurus was the last of the ankylosaurids (armored dinosaurs) to evolve, and the biggest. It lived in the late Cretaceous Period, about 70-65 million years ago. Ankylosaurus and all the other dinosaurs (except birds) perished in the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction, 65 million years ago."..(????)

In his continuing effort to redesign his blog, Shiflett.org, he's been working on one of the things that really makes a blog useful - the commenting system. Specifically, he wants site visitors to be able to add their own code listings to the comments they post. He gives more detail in this new post.
I've been playing with this tonight. Feel free to follow along as I go. The first thing you want to do is create an ordered list from the code you want to format ($code in these examples).
He gives an example of a listing using his system and explains how it all works. It's a mixture of:
- PHP for parsing the data inside the 'code' tags
- CSS to correctly style the information, whitespace and all
- Some ini settings to set parameters for...
- ...the use of highlight string on the PHP code contents

Denver's "Red Ball" brings awareness to World AIDS Day with hair and runway show
Not everyone in Denver was at Sports Authority Field at Mile High Sunday night.
November 29 was also the evening of Denver's seventh annual Red Ball, a night of big fashion and big hair produced by the Colorado AIDS Project, aimed at fundraising and bringing awareness to World AIDS Day (Dec. 1).
Each year in August, dozens of Denver-based clothing designers and hair salons apply to be part of Red Ball.
A little less than half of the applications make the cut.
After being selected, salons and designers are matched together into "teams" and get to work, collaborating on often over-the-top clothing and hair creations with only a few months to spare.
Many of the designers put their day jobs on hold to create special, elaborate collections specifically for the event, rather than selecting ready-to-wear pieces that may already be hanging in their studios.
It's no surprise that the event is such a dear and beloved one among Denver's creative community — it supports an organization close to the hearts of many.
The Colorado AIDS Project helps hundreds in the metro area through health education services, financial and housing assistance, substance abuse counseling and more. The goal is to help the community live healthier by educating those at risk of HIV, and working with them to choose safer behaviors.
It can be easy however for that sentiment to take a backseat to all the extravagant hair and costume-style fashion that often takes over the night.
On Sunday though, one designer-stylist team made sure that message was heard loud and clear.
"This year we are about the power of words," Anne Fanganello, the designer of Anna Festa told me backstage. "What words can do and how they can affect you."
"We have something happening that nobody knows about. We're doing a protest – we're literally doing a protest on the runway. Are we here because of the beautiful clothes and beautiful hair? Yes….but really, it's about the message. 'Get tested,' 'Stop aids,' 'Support the people out there.'"
Anna Festa was assigned to work with Belle and Beau Salon — and while the pairing was random — they both shared the same vision.
"For me, its bigger than a hair show and a fashion show," said Josh Coyne of Belle and Beau.
Coyne cuts hair pro-bono at the Colorado AIDS Project the first Tuesday of every month.
"More people need to know why [Colorado AIDS Project is] here, who they're helping, why they're helping, and how much they really do for people."
Yes, the fashion on the runway was big, and the hair was even bigger. But it was "protest" created by Anna Festa and Belle and Beau Salon that had the biggest impact of the night.
"We're going to make a huge statement," Coyne said.
They did.
"We're not focusing on the hair or the designs. We're focused on the messages on those boards."

|Release Records :
Every time you visit a physician, dentist, psychiatrist or any other type of medical professional a medical record is kept. Records can include anything from the purpose of the visit to important details about your family's medical history. They will also include a record of all diagnoses, tests and even treatments administered to patients.
The reason medical providers keep medical records on patients is so that they understand a patients history and can properly care for them. Medical records are also used by insurance companies to determine the insurability of an individual.
Many patients desire information regarding their medical history to be kept private. Medical records are legal documents, so just how private medical records are kept is often determined by the state in which you (or your medical records) are found.
In order to access your medical records you must file a Release Records Form. A Medical Release Records Form is one that requests that a medical provider release your confidential medical records. Many medical records are now electronic and do not take much effort to access once a Release Records form is provided other records are kept in paper format and may take days or even weeks to recover from storage. The time it takes to access medical records is often determined by how old the records are and what format they are in.

Welcome to the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism at Heidelberg University Hospital
Our patients with osteoporosis are examined and comprehensively cared for by an interdisciplinary team of physicians. We examine the hormonal regulatory systems that control bone and calcium metabolism and look for additional risk factors for bone metabolism disorders, including gastric, intestinal, kidney, liver, or malignant diseases. When indicated, we initiate specific treatments.
Once we know the cause of the osteoporosis, we formulate a treatment plan that is individually tailored to the patient's needs and that applies current medical standards for maintaining and restoring bone substance. A wide range of effective medications is available for use during treatment.
Collapsed vertebral bodies are the most common complications of osteoporosis. The osteology division at the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism at Heidelberg University Hospital offers patients suffering from these complications kyphyplasty therapy as an effective form of treatment.
An injection of biocement "glues" spinal body fractures and eliminates pain
Kyphoplasty is a very successful operative therapy for painful fractures of vertebral bodies. Injecting special bone cement into the fractured area restores the height of the vertebral bodies and "stabilizes" them. This remedies, or at least eases, the often unbearable pain suffered by these patients.
Kyphoplasty was first developed in California in 1999 and has been used at Heidelberg University Hospital since 2001. With 1.400 kyphoplasties on a total of 1.500 successfully treated patients under its belt, Heidelberg has the most experience in this field in the whole of Germany. We have published the first long-term clinical study in the world, in which the efficacy and tolerability of this new therapeutic method is clearly documented. Other studies from Heidelberg show that kyphoplasty reduces the risk of further vertebral body fractures.
The method is useful for
- painful vertebral body fractures due to osteoporosis;
- a new osteoporotic vertebral body fracture due to an accident, as long as it is not a burst or split fracture;
- and tumors in the vertebral body with pain or impending loss of stability, e.g., myeloma, hemangioma, or bone metastases.
All of our patients are evaluated by a treatment team consisting of highly qualified medical specialists from different fields. Endocrinologists, osteologists, hematologists, radiologists, and trauma surgeons/orthopedic surgeons jointly select patients for whom such treatment appears promising. This ensures a successful outcome of the operation. Nearly all of our patients found relief from most of their pain and are significantly more mobile than before the procedure.
We will gladly answer all of your questions.
Prof. Christian Kasperk
Head of the Osteology Department
Deputy Medical Director of the Department of Endocrinology, Metabolism and Clinical Chemistry at Heidelberg University Hospital

Vatican City, Feb 7, 2013 / 09:38 am ().- "The Church has confidence in the young" and needs their lively participation, Pope Benedict XVI insisted, while also underscoring the threat of youth being pushed to the margins of society by unemployment and the crisis in education.
"Although we are aware of the many problematic situations … we wish to renew our faith in the young and reaffirm that the Church looks to their condition and their cultures as an essential and inescapable" focal point for its ministry, the Pope told the Pontifical Council for Culture on Feb. 7.
The emphasis on young people was brought home by the way the council kicked-off its Feb. 6-9 full assembly on "Emerging Youth Cultures" in Rome. Gathered at the main hall of LUMSA university, cardinals, bishops and lay people attended a concert by the Italian rock band "The Sun."
The president of the council, Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, told CNA before the concert that a university was chosen as a venue because they are centers of youth culture.
The council decided to begin with a rock concert because music plays an important role in youth culture.
"If we simply walk along the streets of a city," the cardinal observed, "we see the youth and we see that almost all of them are wearing headphones. They listen to music, and this forms a part of their language."
Pope Benedict received participants in the assembly on Thursday afternoon in the Vatican's Clementine Hall.
He told the council members that he hopes their discussions will contribute to "the Church's work in the lives of young people, which is a complex and articulated reality" that can no longer be understood using old paradigms.
The Pope then took stock of the current situation youth around the world are living in.
In particular, he is worried about the "widespread climate of instability" that is affecting the cultural, political, and economic areas. Many young people are having difficulty finding work, he noted, and this has psychological and relational repercussions.
"The uncertainty and fragility that characterize so many young people often pushes them to the margins, making them almost invisible and absent from society's cultural and historical processes," Benedict XVI remarked.
And this marginalization can impact the affective and emotional spheres, he said, giving birth to "apparently contradictory phenomena like the spectacularization of private life and a narcissistic selfishness.
"Even the religious dimension, the experience of faith and membership in the Church are often lived from an individualistic and emotional perspective," he reflected.
But Pope Benedict also stressed the Church's confidence in young people.
"She hopes in them and in their energy. She needs their vitality in order to continue living the mission entrusted to her by Christ with renewed enthusiasm," he stated.
The Pope said that he sees some positive aspects in youth culture today, including an increase in volunteering, profound and sincere faith experiences, and efforts to "build societies capable of respecting the freedom and dignity of others, beginning with the smallest and weakest."
He finished his message to the council by saying that he very much hopes "that the Year of Faith will be, also for the younger generations, a precious opportunity to rediscover and strengthen the friendship with Christ from which springs the joy and enthusiasm to profoundly change cultures and societies."

44 mpg on highway
By First time VW owner on Saturday, July 06, 2019Bought the 2019 Jetta nearly a year ago. So far very satisfied. It's our first VW ever. The little 1.4 liter turbo and 8 speed transmission together delivers adequate power as well as amazing MPG. The handling and braking are also noticeably better than any one of the Japanese cars we have owned. Styling is also the best in its class IMO.

Very Impressive - Jetta S Stick
By Deek on Wednesday, February 13, 2019It is really almost hard to believe how good a car this is! But it definitely is. I bought a '19 Jetta S with Manual transmission and Driver Assist package (blind spot, front collision avoidance technology and cross traffic alert in rear). My car also had VW maintenance at 10,000 and 20,000 miles, the full Roadside Assistance kit for trunk, All weather mats front and rear and Car-Go trunk liner. Sticker price was 20,425; I bought it for 16,500. I added the hard wired Day / Night rearview mirror with Homelink (a very smart option IMO). My car had Bridgestone tires which I preferred. I am totally impressed with the car. Fit and finish are excellent. The lines are much better than the older models. The interior is quiet and comfortable even though this is a base model. Apple Car Play works as smoothly as you would expect and the audio head is perfectly sufficient for me. Yes, I agree that Sirius/XM would have been nice, but I have SXM on my iPhone from a mobile subscription and it plays fine for me through Bluetooth on the VW head. I also really like the electronic parking brake. Most cars with this price point have a manual parking brake. The electronic one on this car allows you to start out forward or in reverse with the parking brake active and it automatically disengages when you let out the clutch. Found this out in reading the Owner's Manual and so glad I found this nice feature. My daughter leases a 2018 VW Tiguan S and, like her, I find the S trim to be more than sufficient on this car. Who wouldn't want the SE or SEL trim? But at more than 3,000 more than what I paid, I am perfectly happy with all that is packed into the S model. VW called this one right! I am in awe of the responsiveness of the 1.4T motor with the Manual transmission as well as the impressive gas mileage (first drive on highway got me just shy of 42 mpg). The 6 speed stick shifter is truly silky smooth, as good as past BMW's I have owned. The German design and technology is evident throughout. The day after delivery, I had to drive on secondary roads on a 100 mile trip. The weather conditions were just horrible -- high winds, slushy roads, heavy rain / freezing rain / snow. The car remained quiet, responsive, non-flappable and simply stuck to the highway regardless of the wind gusts. I felt very safe and comfortable throughout. I managed another 42 mpg going 60-62 mph. I mainly got this car to use as a tow vehicle behind my 45' motor coach, but I am so impressed with it that it will definitely be a daily driver for me for a lot of the time. I am a big car guy, having owned at least 140 new cars over the years and to be as impressed with this one as I am says a lot. The dealer does not sell lots of S models and not many sticks at all; I am really glad I found this one equipped as it was and made my deal for it. And how about the incredible VW 6 year / 72,000 mile warranty?? You can run it for three years and still have another three year bumper to bumper warranty which is transferrable to a new owner. Fabulous deal! I am very, very happy with my purchase. VW is doing it right on this car!

Regretting it already
By passinttd on Tuesday, January 21, 2020Purchased my Volkswagen Jetta SEL Premium in Oct. of 2019. My wife and I wanted to get something better on gas for the driving I have to do for work. We already owned a 2010 Volkswagen Passat that I love but it takes premium fuel so another requirement was regular. We went back to VW to take a look at what they had and the new Passat was a major let down compared to the decked out Jetta's and Tiguan's. Since we were looking for gas economy we settled on the Jetta and were happily on our way. Happily at first at least. We take a vacation and come back to get in our Jetta again. Happy with all the bells and whistles until the transmission starts to grind at about 2500-3000 miles. It is an annoying high pitch grind that is very obvious. Along with this, my brakes sound like a squealing pig in pain every morning and my lane assist / ACC has shut itself down a half dozen times. One of which was while I was doing 75 on a highway and just about had the guy behind me hitting me. Finally get a free moment to call VW and they tell me to bring it in but it all sounds normal. I get the next available appointment and drive the hour and a quarter to the dealership knowing that they must have misunderstood me. I get to the dealership and they inform me that VW knows about the transmission but said that it is 100% normal and no damage is being done. On a brand new car... The brakes are metallic and have a water build up in the morning so that I just need to brake harder to dry them out. They also stated that my car was to dusty and that was the fault of the lane assist cutting out. AKA: everything is my fault on a brand new car and to deal with it. I did an online chat with VW Group of America to ensure that at least the transmission portion was correct. They confirmed that they say it is normal and they don't plan on fixing it at this time. Wow has VW fallen! Might as well go buy a Ford instead.

Thank you to everyone who joined us on Tuesday, January 19th, for our live online chat titled "New Year, New You: Successful & Lasting Weight Loss", hosted by Emory Bariatrics registered dieticians, Victoria Delgado, RD, and Kasey LaPointe, RD.
During this live chat, Victoria and Kasey provided healthful living tips to lasting weight loss for those who have made weight loss a part of their New Year's resolution. They also answered questions about surgical and non-surgical weight loss.
We were thrilled with the number of people who registered and were able to participate in the chat. The response was so great that we had a few questions we were not able to answer so we have answered them below for your reference.
Question: Does wrapping your body with Saran wrap while you work out help shed inches/pounds? If so, how does it work?
Answer: No, this is a myth. It may increase sweat which can result in water loss, but not fat loss. To lose inches and pounds, we must combine physical activity with a healthy eating plan.
Question: Am I too old to go on Optifast (a liquid meal replacement program) to reduce my weight?
Answer: Due to risk of losing muscle mass, we encourage our patient who are 70 year or older to follow a Partial Meal Replacement Meal Plan instead of the Full Meal Replacement Meal Plan. The partial plan includes using Optifast and whole foods, while the full plan consists of using only Optifast products for a short period of time. All patients are assessed individually by a physician prior to getting started.
Question: I am interested in learning more about the lap band surgery to help with weight loss.
Answer: I recommend clicking on this link to learn about lap band surgery. Once you decide which Emory location is more convenient to you, you will find details about each of the surgical weight loss options we offer. You may also register for a seminar. Our video seminars define the three procedures we perform: the band, sleeve and bypass. There is also contact information and other resources at these sites.
Question: Can I go from the lap band to the gastric sleeve?
Answer: Absolutely. The surgeon can remove the band and convert to the sleeve all during the same procedure. You may click on the following link to choose a location and get started: http://www.emoryhealthcare.org/emorybariatrics/index-nav.html.

Sailor Jerry's Spiced rum is crafted from a blend of Caribbean rums that are blended and infused with spices and other flavors including vanilla and cinnamon.
The rum is produced by Sailor Jerry Ltd., a company founded to honor the sailor-turned-tattoo artist, Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins.

This popular rum is really well marketed, and it's "OK", but may be a little over-rated. It's colour is a decent amber with a bit of a red tinge. It definitely smells of vanilla... I can't quite say what the spices are, besides vanilla, however I think I taste nutmeg/allspice and it has a bit of a harsh "peppery" finish, which I'm not too fond of. Good with a cola, but's there's so many other options...
Introduced to this by a Bother-in-law. A very nice spiced rum. Aroma is almost candy. That burnt sugar/caramel smell is a delight.
Sweet to the taste. Caramel, butterscotch and a touch of vanilla.I do get a bit of a tongue burn, but a smooth swallow with very sweet after taste. Real good with cola. Not at all bad with a rock - straight up
If I'm going sailing, its with my buddy Jerry.
Chances are if I've got only one bottle of rum in the house, It will be Sailor Jerry.
It is the go to rum for my roommate and myself.
whilst I do still try other rums, If I need a safe choice, I'll take Jerry.
the hint of Vanilla makes It go Especially good with Coke. (I mean, Vanilla rum and coke! heck yeah!)
However this doesn't limit it, I found That SJ makes quite a good Daiquiri
The Simplest Term to Describe SJ is that it is "Ghettolicious" It's Quite cheap. being only about a dollar or so more than your average to low end rum
Yet it just smells. tastes. mixes so well that I can't see myself grabbing something else consistently
Great when mixed and smooth going down. I just started trying this rum but already it is one of my favorites I would highly recommend it for anyone that wants something good but isn't expensive.
Really smooth, and flavourful. It makes your clothes fall off. lmao Must try!!
I don't have enough room for all the sailor jerry tattoos I want because of the pleasure jerry has brought me and my top party companions.
Strong hints of vanilla with nutmeg undertones. On the sweet side but pairs nicely with coke.
Sailor Jerry spiced has a lighter spice taste than some spiced rums, that doesn't make it a lightweight though.
I drink it with 7up, ice and a piece of lime. I love the vanilla and caramel undertones.
And the tattoo stickers under the label have become collectibles and are now decorating my fridge.
Spiced rum is a tough category, and if your going to buy it off the shelf of a standard liquor store, Sailor Jerry's is a fine choice, and will go great in cocktails. You could probably do better with El Dorado Spiced or Crusoe, or better yet make your own!
Wow..very nice.alot smoother then i expected.. alot of vanilla and almond flavor..will always keep a bottle..........or 2 of the sailor around...great rum
Extremely strong & sweet vanilla aromas, vanilla again in mouth with leathery warm finish, tobacco there too.
In the end I was nicely surprised by this spiced rum. It is definitely not an everyday's rum as I would be rapidly fed up with the monotone flavour but an interesting once in a while sip...
I go finally got around to drinking this and have to say it was nice. I would go as far as saying it's better than Capt. MORGANS spiced rum but depending on who you ask that is not saying much. Its all about whay you desire in a spiced rum. For me it was a hearty drink full of flavor and just enough bite. If anything it would make a great mixer. Especially for a different breed of mojitos.
It taste like drinking Vanilla Extract and Caramel/Butterscotch. Very drinkable on ice, mixes well with Coke if you want vanilla flavored coke. Quite sweet too.
It's good for the price, but it's definitely heavily vanilla flavored. After drinking GOOD $35 rum you quickly realize all the flaws with this one.
Predominant flavour of Vanilla, which I like, especially with Coke Zero which I find brings the flavour out more - I drop a stick of Cinamon into the bottle though as that's another flavour I like and after a couple of days its perfect for me.
I don't drink it neat, but as a mixer in a Cuba Libre its my go to Rum.
Not a bad Rum and a spicey one at that with a touch of vanilla and a kick like a mule but it is over priced compared with others of the same kind and that is its down fall.
Sailor Jerry spiced and Ginger beer is a lovely drink, try the 'firery' ginger beer for an extra kick.
Wouldn't normally be trying a spiced rum like this, but adventures in tiki drink making brought me here. And it works wonderfully! Makes a great Krakatoa punch!
From the quality perspective: it's totally unremarkable. It's very sugary with obviously added flavours: fruits (cherries?), vanilla, spices (black pepper comes to my mind). Too sweet for my taste, clearly artificial in nature, the flavour disappears extremely quickly, no persistence whatsoever.
Ok, the Rum family is rather large and there is no "official" position as to what a Rum should be like... Yet this spiced drink is not Rum in my book: call it liquor.
I think that this product has an interesting quality/price equation especially if you bought it to blend it in a cocktail.
One simple question: if you rate 7 this Rum, how would you rate a Hampden Estate, full proof? Or a Demerara, 15 y.o. by Samaroli, or even more humbly a Remember by Pepi Mongiardino? This I would like to know.
This is terrible. If you want cheap rum, definitely go for Admiral Nelson
Always enjoy going sailing with my buddy Jerry... great spiced rum that mixes well with a nice cold coke!
This would be great if you wanted some lightly sweet and lightly spiced rubbing alcohol... But if you aren't crazy or a raging alcoholic, do yourself a favor and try something else.
So perfect with diet Coke! So joyful after three drinks! Produces fantastic blackouts due to its 92 percent proof! Joy 1.25 drinks for the price of one! It is so smooth with dirt Coke! I am in love! The buz is Mellow and not as "drunk" as one would think. Drink it with an intention to get FUCKED UP LIKE NEVER BEFORE! I guarantee a slamming good time! Love you!
I love spiced rums for sipping straight up, and SJ was new to me this week. I was was quite pleased with it. The nose is a bit sleazy - like a cheap come on from the hula girl on the label. But the liquor is more refined than expected. Very forward caramel nose gives way to a nice, burnt sugar aftertaste. I would say SJ holds it's own against any spiced rum out there. Kraken is also good, though a bit sweeter. Pyrat's premium cask is a doozy, and their Reserve is delicious, but they are not spiced as far as I know. I rate SJ an 8 based on the competition, not an absolute scale of 9 being close to perfect, because I've yet to find a "perfect" spiced rum. I see that Bayou gets the highest rating here, so I will buy that next if I can find it. Takes me about 3-4 weeks to get through a bottle, so, I will hopefully discover Nirvana down on the Bayou. Until then SJ at the weekend house, and Pyrat and Kraken in the city will keep my feet up while I read about how DJT is going to either blow the world up and require we all lay in survival stocks (how many cases of Pyrat is the half life of Strontium-90?) or make America Great Again. I give the former a 0 and the latter a 10.
Spiced rum is an abomination to kick off with and this is an embarrassment to the genre. Absolute filth. Vanilla - or at least a sickly sweet approximation thereof - is front and centre with a characterless and instantly forgettable baby spice mix annoying you in the background. I expect my bottle to outlive me and will leave directions in my will that it be cremated prior to my funeral.
