Members of the committee stated that SPLOST funds are spread out over several other major projects, causing commissioners to grow concerned that they may need these funds later.
ALBANY, GA -- Commissioners debated this morning using SPLOST VI funds to construct a pedestrian overpass for Albany Technical College over South Slappey Boulevard.
However, if there is enough money for the bridge plus extra projects in the future, they are required to allocate those funds to Albany Tech.
The walk will reportedly cost $860,000 dollars to construct, and the current traffic situation is a safety concern for students at the current time.

Me too. I'll try to get some pics. The south island is supposed to get a few days of sun and warm temps at the end of the week so I'm aiming for maple bay on thursday or friday. going to get all the lashings sorted out in the back yard today:
All lashed up and as ready as its going to get. The only thing missing is a proper seat and I won't make that until I find out how I end up sitting in it:
I've decided to name it Zeno's Turtle. Unless I change my mind.

On my instance of Ulua, water is hitting the aft iako/ama connection on anything but the most modest trimaran tack.
Photo pending a waterproof bag and being able to sail.
Is this strictly a weight distribution thing? Or could there be another cause?
Here's the canoe with just me in it - and it looks to me like it's stern-heavy: http://tinyurl.com/7mnndx6
Remedies besides moving weight foward?
Can anyone offer any information on manufacturer or model?

We can find no HIN nor Manufacturer's plate.
It looks like even the "pros" have their hands full using a steering oar or steering paddle:

At first I thought that was a a "Virus Proa" which some British company was building as a tacking outrigger, but then, the Virus had a pretty wide vaka, and company ad showed someone rowing it as a monohull. So, no, I guess not! -- Wade
I just hope it isn't too wet a ride. This whole project turned out to be a lesson on how not to build a boat as I fear impatience and frustration got the better of judgement. And it occurs to me that if I really did need to change it the easiest way to give it more depth would be to build a new bottom working my way down from the chine, not building a new deck working up from the sheer. But I won't. I swear . Not this year, anyway. Maybe a pair of very small, very lightweight amas to try it as a tri. That would free up the big ama for the other conversion. But for now its done now so we'll see. However the other kayak hull conversion is 75% done and it has a good foot more freeboard and three times the volume so if this one is a disappointment I will get back to work quickly on the other.

Yes, I ran across that sail insignia too researching this boat. It is possible the sail is not original.I was able to find a sail insignia of a bare foot but it was a mirror image of yours and belonged to the Hotfoot 27, a mono hull built right here in my backyard in Victoria. Is it possible that the sail is not original to the boat?
I am following a lead and awaiting a reply - I will post more when I have additional information.
Another interesting design detail is the molded half circle on each side of the bow. When viewed head on, the boat
looks like is has an eye!
Seems like, given similar information, great minds reach similar solutions:
..so I took ZT for her maiden paddle this morning on maple bay and it was a resounding success. Just about everything I had hoped for. Will go for the first sail tomorrow or friday. just a few minor adjustments to do this afternoon. I may never look at our monohull again. The stability of lashing a little ama to a kayak is amazing. The whole boat only weighs about 100 pounds and transports in two 50 pound chucks requiring only two lashes to be tied at the beach. Quick, easy, no strain, no hassle. Really looking forward to sailing. summer is here at last. The ama I built by pure guess work is exactly what I had hoped for. With me in the kayak the proa sits perfectly level, and when I climb out to the ama and put all my weight on it I still have about a half inch of freeboard. Its deep vee also draws enough water that hopefully it will provide all the lateral resistance required for sailing. The steering paddle worked well, is ergonometrically very well placed, and being able to use it as a stern side thruster to turn on a dime is a nice feature. Pics under sail on friday if all goes well.

Thinking that the above jib won't be big enough even when there is some wind I'm switching to a bigger one. It meant using a 17 foot length of 2 inch aluminum tube for a mast. Being very bendy I added a backstay. The easiest way to do this was to turn the boat on its side:
The new sail is about 18 sq ft bigger, and I've left plenty of head clearance (my head, the sail's foot) which should also provide better visability which was clear after the first sail was going to be a problem. Added a boom, too:

I've managed to ampute the glassed-in seat on my Ulua without doing any damage.... I hope...
Almost exactly 4 pounds.
Now I want to replace it with a sliding seat so I can move my weight forward when sailing solo.
Having the advantages of parallel gunwales and very long legs, I'm thinking of a seat that just sits atop the gunwales and slides on them.
On the surface it seems pretty obvious. Maybe even as simple as buying a ready-made canoe seat, triming the cross bars to size, and adding something to grab the gunwales from underneath.
- Slide fore-aft
.- Weigh less than 4 pounds
.- Not float free in capsize
.- Stay attached and in place with vaka upside-down, bouncing along on a trailer
- Minimal weight
.- Lock fore-aft in place easily and unlock easily or, at least, not slide *too* easily.
Anybody been here?
Pete, I never had your problems since my outrigger was meant to be a solo-boat, so I sit in the same place all the time except on the proa tack. Perhaps i do not do fine-tuning that way, but if anything I should be sitting further back (but alomost out of room there)because as I move to taller rigs, the bow is decidedly being pushed down. My seat is just screwed down 3/4 pine with a PFD-cushion to sit on. I was going to saw out the pine and replace with something lighter, but haven't yet. I can stand on the seat if I want, while holding on to the mizzen mast behind my back, to get a look at something, so I keep the heavy seat. Seems to me my personal mistakes in building a bullet-proof hull outweigh (pun intended) the smaller weight issues like this.
But if you build a light hull, you are nearly all the way there, and if a couple of accessories are a little heavy, (like 4 pounds :-) then I don't see much of an issue. You don't want to put your ass or foot through something.
For sliding, I wonder if some mast-track sections that take a T-slug (used to sell these at Jamestown Distributors) would be a light, strong, and elegant way to rig a sliding seat? --Wade
If you could see my bike (34+ pounds as ridden...) you'd know I'm not a weight weenie.
The goal here is mainly the functionality of movement and not losing the seat under adverse conditions.
But the main hull is already 113# (spec is closer to 85) and I don't want to add any more.
Maybe I'm dreaming, but it seems like 4 pounds max is generous for a seat, considering the weight of the average el-cheapo alu beach chair.
FWIW, here's part of what makes me think I'm running stern-heavy: http://tinyurl.com/6v4xbwd
The rest is in finding I can point quite a few degrees higher with my weight forward plus the aft ama/iako connection catching water on trimaran tack.

Since youVe taken the step of taking out the seats, why not go while hog with your planned mods and go with an 8' span between the iakos? Find where you want to sit, and move the iakos (and ama) to where it will work best for solo usage. My intenet all along was to sit on a tramp/pola 18" to windward or more and steer with a rudder. Steering with a canoe paddle solo is a whole different ball of wax. It's a tough situation as all the HSCA guys have a steersman way aft, but they have 3-6 paddlers. Solo wants you just aft af the middle for best trim. The pic on Wikiproa shows me sitting forward of the aft seat on the gunwale on a throwable cushion. That got my weight formard nearly to the front seat location. Did you take out both seats? That might make the canoe pretty wiggly unless you add a thwart. If it was the aft seat only, I'd say you're fine. You could hack out another couple pounds by removing the stupid 2x2 inside the canoe as well, but that's a fair bit of work. The Manu are also a bit big and heavy if you are really going whole hog on the weight reduction. If you realy want to go crazy with weight reduction, tear out the 2x2's, the mast step, both seats, and more decking and go with Gary's plan to a T. More work for sure, but the hull was glassed before any of those components were added, so you do have an indicator of when to stop. The hull could continue it's diet, and your back will thank you for every unnecessary pound you rip outa there. You could easily do a totally stock Ulua with the 3' stretch and save lots of weight.
As for the slidable seat that stays put to some degree, I'd buy a commercially made canoe sear, cane or webbing, and make an L shaped block of wood or aluminum angle that hooks under the gunwale. The inside would be prettier. The seat would be retained by the clips and slide along anywhere it's parallel.
Is the leeboard location still the same with the new rig or are you paddling upwind or dealing with the angles? I really like Gary's hiking seats he's made too that run from gunwale to pola. Tough to paddle steer from there though. Ed Van Belcom runs his single outrigger Raptor 16 with water balast on the ama since that boat doesn't permit hiking out and he doesn't realy like the foil ir came with.
Last edited by Dan St Gean; 07-09-2012 at 04:20 PM.
No. Gary says the front one is structural, so it stays glassed-in. Later on, I may drop it down to his spec location so the leverage on the gunwale by the leeboard works as intended. But that's for later.
That's the first thing that came to mind. I was just trolling for any fatal flaws... or better ideas...As for the slidable seat that stays put to some degree, I'd buy a commercially made canoe sear, cane or webbing, and make an L shaped block of wood or aluminum angle that hooks under the gunwale.

Same location. Of course the whole rig works "right" with leeboard down.... But I'm sailing it a lot with leeboard up mainly bc I'm not pointing - but also bc it's interesting to see how well I can point without it... weight placement, sail trim, and all that.....Is the leeboard location still the same with the new rig
The original leeboard was too massive for me, so I recruited the long rudder for leeboard duty and it seems to work pretty well so far. Put a little reinforcement around the bolt in the form of a 2" x 8" hunk of 3/4" oak in lieu of Gary's spec'd Alu... once I find a source of Alu, I'll probably use that bc my implementation of the oak is kind of ugly.
If I go to a rudder, I think it will be Gary's cassette implementation... but that's way down the pike.
So I took the vaka only out for a paddle to see how serviceable it is as a kayak and the answer is not very serviceable. This is a narrow, responsive kayak hull and without a snug cockpit it really isn't much good as a kayak any more. Oh well, live and learn. The gears are already turning as to the best way to deepen the hull a foot or so. I'm thinking I will just add a simple dory bottom to it, not even remove the old bottom except in the cockpit for a foot well. So it will be double hulled so to speak. Very strong and safe, with not too much weight penalty. Probably no more than ten pounds. Any thoughts anyone? Constructive criticism as well as ridicule will be given equal consideration
Another weight savings idea that wouldn't mess with the structural nature of the front seat is to cut the middle out and staple in a webbing seat. If you go with a webbing aft seat it'll match & look good too.
Additionally, look up the leeboard stuff from the www.diy-tri.com guy, Frank Smoot. His it much like the rudder foil you are using, but holds tight at any angle you set. He mentioned that he has set the tension on one of his tris a year ago and it still stays put without any fiddling anywhere he sets it. The secret? He bores a big hole to allow more bearing surface for friction to work it's magic. That's a simplification of the BSD leeboard with a cone shaped projection that gets tightened. Frank uses a double nut to keep it where he wants it. Slick, cheap, and right on the money.
I did a little calculation and came up with 4.72#/ft. of boat length of a regular Ulua hull, while the stretched and overbuilt hull is 5.38#/ft. Ripping out the excess stuff and making it a "stock" ulua at 4.72#/ft would make for a hull of 99#. Going for broke in the lightweight category would have to include new akas that are hollow. At some point, it's only a couple # though.
Dan, even when it was a real kayak I had lost interest in paddling, hence the conversion to proa. I think I took it out today just to remind myself that its ok to complete the transformation of this boat into, um, I dunno, something else. Even thigh straps wouldn't make much difference for me. Some sort of kayak sponsons would be more like it:
I don't know the guy in the photo. I picked it because he looks so happy standing on his kayak.
Or mini amas
I'm thinking the double bottom thing will work quite well since I can just cut four or five 1/4 inch cross section slits through the existing vee bottom up to the chine, slide ply bulkheads into the slits. From there adding the bottom and side panels should be fairly straight forward. Won't do it until October, though. This is going to be a fun beach boat as is for the summer. But it clearly has its limitations with such a shallow, low volume greenland kayak hull.

Adjustment-wise, mine is working pretty well now since I bit the bullet, bought an el-cheapo MAPP gas brazing torch form Home Depot, and brazed an SS bolt on to the head of the existing bolt - essentially duplicating Gary's design, except with an SS bolt instead of SS rod.
Barefoot 12 Outrigger ~
I received B&W copies from Dick Medve in Hawaii, co-owner designer for Barefoot Enterprises who produced the 'High Performance Sailing Outrigger Barefoot 12'.
We are currently exchanging information, however, the story goes ... In 1960(s) the boat was produced to compete in price with the then new, Hobie 14 catamaran. In 1970(s), a small fleet was shipped to Walt Disney World Florida to be sailed off the beach for the opening celebration of the Polynesian Resort. Each boat had a very distinctive 'Tiki' mask affixed to the bow, carying the Outrigger theme and the hulls were available in 6 custom colors.
Pricey little thing...
Assuming 1970, I get about $6,000 in 2012 dollars per
Sabalminor, any idea how it fared in performance to the Hobie 14?
Found a colourful second hand dinghy sail for $45 that I can use on the forward mast step of Zeno's Arrow so it looks like my experiment with aft masts is on hold for a while. Got it rigged today and hopefully will sail tomorrow:
At http://www.tacking-outrigger.com/kir8.html
It looks like the thanks go to Peter Evans.
In http://www.tacking-outrigger.com/kir8a.pdf towards the lower right of the page, it seems to say that the "Empty" displacement of the main hull plus outrigger is 220 kg (484 pounds) and the "Loaded" figure is 515 kg (1, 133 pounds).
Is "Displacement" the same as weight in this context? I'm guessing that it means that the referenced object, when dumped in water, pushes that weight of water out of the way to float itself.
Is this to say that, for the purposes of pulling the boat up-and-down the beach or on-off a trailer, the weight of hull + outrigger is almost 484 pounds and iakos, pola, sailing rig, rudder, rigging are extra?
Also, is that to say that the carrying capacity at the designed freeboard is 649 pounds? (1,133 - 484) minus whatever aforementione iakos/pola/rig weigh?

You may find it interesting:
Finally took Short Dragon out for its first cruise of the season. I let a lot of things get ahead of me (including some fun things such as the Texas 200 and hanging out with proa-sailor Kevin O'Neill) thus the late start.
The 'big' modification for this season was not so big -- add provisions to support a 17 foot mast carrying a new battened mainsail, 75 square feet, almost square-top (14 foot luff, 6.5 foot bottom) -- includng a third outrigger and a short bowsprit. I also am again trying a push-pull tiller. Last year this capsized me when I pushed instead of pulled, but I added a longer yoke (about 20 inches) which adds leverage and also slows down the steering rate so that I have a split second longer to change my mind, which does help. I had to add an aka on the non-ama side to carry that side's shroud. I will add another aft soon to carry the inflatable safety ama (should ride 12-14 inches over flat water). For shrouds I used 1/8 inch Vectran, attahing them to the akas horn cleats (this synthetic does cleat pretty well unlike some others). I use a 20 squarefot mizzen sail to complete the rig, which maintains my old total sail area but redistributes it more to the mailsail, and little higher on tthat main sail (tip of former standing lug main was 12 feet over bottom of boat, new sail is 17 feet over the bottom). Finally, add the new 5 loot long leeboard (adds one foot over old one, for total of three feet clear under the boat). The idea was to get to windward better. Photo here: http://www.facebook.com/wade.tarzia?...type=1&theater
I took the boat to Bantam Lake (almost 3 miles long) to test it all out, conditions 7-9 mph, gusts to 16 mph. Set up time was 30 minutes (wheels stopped in marina to wheels stopped after launching the boat), which surprized me a little -- I thought it would take longer given the addition of stay and shrouds. I thought at first the boat pointed higher than ever, but perhaps this was the first flush of excitement with a new rig.
Later on I was not so sure -- the GPS track did not seem much higher than my old standing lug cat-ketch. But perhaps I was sailing lower for more speed. I was going to windward at about 5 knots which was faster than usual, which tells me I need to pinch a little higher to make a comparision with the old rig. So I am disappointed to say that increased windward performance did not leap out at me and slap me in the face with a "wow!" (especially with all the work done on that bigger board). I was expecting a 7-10 degree kind of 'wow'.
The longer board does stress the aircraft aluminum bearing-rails more, but the bending does not alarm me yet (maybe an inch to inch and a half over their 40 inch length).
As ever, the trimaran tack was best, the proa tack was not too bad, but the taller rig definitely wants to kncok the boat down if I am not attentive (= getting out on the side seat fast). The shroud-outrigger (made from my curved EC trimaran-inflatable aka, cut down) caught water once = could trip boat? I intended for the big (400 pound displacement) safety ama for that side, and I had better get on that immediately, certainly for coastal sailing. Then, though the boat will still essentially be made to sail as a single-outrigger on the old wooden deep-V ama, I guess that safety ama will catch water often enough to make it a trimaran in that 2 foot chop on the coast and during gusts.
One problem (maybe 2) with the new sail I need to iron out is the sheeting angle. The used sail arrived as a boomless rig (batten at bottom). The former owner, who did not use it much, mentioned thinking about adding a boom. (I have an old wooden one that will fit, but the bad sheeting angle will remain since the boom end would not extend to the aft aka where the traveler rope can be set up.). For this first test cruise, it is still boomless; I mickey-moused the "traveler" at an angle that bisected the clew angle, but I did this foolishly by sheeting it in tight to centerline. In reality of course the sail goes to lee, and the angle will be different (in fact will change in the different sailing courses. The foot of the sail is too short to reach the traveler rope used on the old rig -- which, ending at the non-ama aka end, was always too narrow on the proa tack, but extending along the ama, gave good sheeting angle on the trimaran tack. The current sheet had only about 15 inches of travel along the bottom of the cockpit seat.
Thus, all told I believe the top of the sail was twisting off too much. I am not skilled at judging twist angle and certainly not with this new battened square-top sail, so I need to work this out.
Also, I had the feeling that sail shape is not good at the top of the sail. There are two battens up there: the diagonal that acts like a leech batten to hold the leech (roach) out, and just under that, the first in the series of horizontal battens. I am thinking that may be a lot of stiff stuff up there interfering with the potential shape of the head of the sail. I will Todd Bradshaw would drop in on this thread and comment :-) .
Yes, I need to take some still photos (it was good sailing and my hands were pretty full), though I managed a video which I will post soon. I need to pay more attention to the curve of the battens as indicators of sail shape, but if memory serves, the head seemed a little flat. This is a pretty new sail (former owner did not use much then sold his canoe I believe) so perhaps it nbeeds some breaking in? Do sails need that?
I leave for Ireland for stint of bike-camping and folklore/archaeology research for three week, so alas, may not get back to this for a while. Hope your collective sailing season is going well. Apologies to a couple of people who sent private mail I have not gotten to yet or replied with less detail than usual -- been very busy with balancing both fun and some family issues! -- Wade

you would end up in the water, thrown off the back and holding onto the main sheet!
I have had contact from the second owner back (who purchased her in early 1990s). He stated that like many multihulls
it was easy to get into irons, you needed speed to tack and that she was a very stable boat. With two on board, she was not fast.
Dick Medve also concurred about the stability and said that she made an excellent fishing platform - with ample room for cooler and fishing gear storage in the vaca.
Once I complete the rebuild/refit and get her in the water, we'll see how she sails!

You can see some similar outriggers here.
Well I finally made some saw cuts and started my 16' two piece Wa'apa build. I'm taking any and all advice.
So far I have my side panels cut out (4mm HydroTech) marine ply. I used the default bottom rocker but left the top sheer straight; so I have 22 3/8" freeboard at station 1 and 23 7/8" freeboard at station 2(amidship). I've got some lumber ripped for the bulkheads, etc..
I am still a bit undecided on if it is going to be a tacker or a true proa. I live in the SF Bay Area and the wind can be pretty constant from east to west -with things like islands, bridges, and ridges to mess that up. It can blow really hard here, and the tides rip pretty good as well.
If built as a tacker I'd deck the entire front and make a wood hatch (16" x 18" or so) to create a seat/paddle station in the front. As a proa.. or even a tacking rig I thought a self draining cockpit 12"-14" up form the bottom might be good on either the front or both ends. All this has been discussed here before.
After cutting out the sides I did notice the freeboard is quite high, but really only a few inches more than the boat as designed. I am a bit concerned about windage during tacking. (Another reason a proa might be a good option) I could "fix" the look of the flat sheer by adding some dashboards. I am a big boy (215 lbs) and figure I will be sailing alone most of the time(realist). My wife is just over a hundred pounds soaking wet, and daughter weighing in at 27 lbs currently. If I had them aboard it would be in calmer waters. I'd like to camp cruise (ex-climber/backpacker so I can keep it light). I'd build the longer 24'er but I want to cartop for now.
Planning on glassing the bottom inside/out with 6oz glass and the outsides of the top with 4 oz glass. I have 2 gallons of the duckworks economy epoxy and some wood flour. Any advice on additives for fairing etc? Also I plan on using a cassette style quarter rudder (or two? if proa)
Anyhow. I will post pictures once it goes 3-D. Right now it is still a pile of lumber. Hope to get some more done this week before I head out for a camp trip.
Thanks again everyone for the great thread/info.
--- I guess the wa'apa is supposed to have around 19 inches freeboard, which is good for a light boat. My 16 foot 3-boarder has 24 in the center and rockers up (symmetrical) to 19 in both ends. I do like freeboard despite windage in a narrow boat that will have more sinkage than a dinghy. I find my bow often buries as I sail through steep waves, and in rough weather is sluices a few gallons down my decks and into the cockpit footwell every 20 minutes or so-- nothing that is immediately dangerous, but it it does build up if I am really hanging on to things and cannot devote time to pumping. I was going to add wash boards on the bow (like Tamanu) just for this reason, but did not get around to it. I advise trying the hull as is. If you will take a passenger often then you might like that extra freeboard. The good part is, if you have more, you can saw it off later over winter (a little easier than adding if you do not have enough?). -- Wade
Thanks for the advice Wade. I guess I could always chop the top down later.
Indeed P.I., freeboard was not the proper term from my OP. I guess hull depth would be better at this point. Either way I am going to stick with the increased hull depth for now.
I am trying to build as light as I can; while still adding a few mods. I plan on building a 14' ama nui for it; but, it is difficult finding blue foam here in California since it typically doesn't get that cold here.
I am thinking of extending the front deck just past the mast collar area on the plans and putting in a raised cockpit floor. If I built both ends identical I could use it as a proa a w/schooner rig, and/or a traditional crabclaw. I could always configure it as a tacking rig later. I plan on using throwable seat cushions/life preservers on the deck seat areas to increase some legroom that is lost w/raised cockpit floor.
In the future I may add a 4'-6' middle section; but, I want something small for now. I'd like to stay under 23' as not to run afoul with the USCG for not having fixed nav lights if I ever find myself sailing at night.

E.M. O'Donnell building
SYRACUSE -- Plans are underway to turn the office building across the street from National Grid's downtown Syracuse headquarters into student housing.
Syracuse developer Ed Green is working with Jim Breuer of Hueber-Breuer Construction to renovate the E.M. O'Donnell building at 301 Erie Boulevard West.
The building was most recently used as office space for National Grid. A covered walkway over Erie Boulevard connected it to the main building.
Green says he expects Syracuse University students who attend classes at the Warehouse downtown will be the most likely to live there. The goal is to provide residential housing for about 150 students. Concept drawings show a restaurant on site but Green says it will likely focus on providing meal service for the students.
"Whole new concept, whole new image for the area and it brings a lot of life to it that wasn't there before," said Green.
Concept drawings show a restaurant, but Green says it will likely be centered on feeding students.
An asbestos abatement project in the building is near completion and Green says he hopes the renovation will be ready to open in fall 2014.

"It's a battle every night out," Haven coach Lonnie Paramore said. "I told them (the team) tonight we could win every game in our league and we could lose every game in our league. It's very balanced." On this night, it didn't look balanced. The Swathers flexed their offensive firepower with three starters - guards Grant Raleigh and Tyler McCartney and forward Wyatt McKinney - scoring at least 15 points for more than 80-percent of their offense. Raleigh and McCartney joined forces to break an 11-11 deadlock after the first quarter by mounting their own 14-5 run against Haven, which had trouble keeping the Swathers from finding open 3s or pull-up jumpers. "Man, they hit a lot of shots in that second quarter," Paramore said. "They've got good players. It's hard to guard some of those guys when they're hitting perimeter shots and driving as well." With Raleigh and McCartney drawing outside defenders, McKinney became a go-to inside pillar for easy points. "He had a major knee injury last year ... and he's just getting back," Hesston coach Greg Raleigh said of McKinney. "His offense hasn't been as good as his defense, but he's been giving us a lot there. Then tonight he got a few stick-backs and we ran some sets to him even, and that was good to see." The 6-foot-6 junior muscled his way to 15 points on second-effort put-back shots down low. McKinney spearheaded a physical attack that played well on both ends of the court for Hesston (6-1, 4-0). "We've faced some good teams but none of them played quite as hard as what Hesston did," Paramore said. "They played very hard and they're aggressive." And that was the game plan for the Swathers. Haven, which had out-worked, out-hustled and out-smarted its way to a perfect 7-0 start to the season in December, got a taste of its own medicine from Hesston. "We wanted to get after them defensively, keep a lot of pressure on them, keep them from getting the ball to (Luke) Johnson. I thought we did a pretty good job of that," coach Raleigh said. "We worked a lot trying to get better defensively over the holidays. If we can hold Haven to 40 points, that's a pretty good effort." Hesston's offense made that defensive effort count with runs of 9-0 and 6-3 in the third quarter and a 7-0 spurt to open the fourth. Only Johnson, who wasn't feeling 100-percent, finished with more than 10 points in the scoring column for the Wildcats. His 12 points would've been more than double than any other teammate had Trae' Regier not scored six of his eight points in the fourth quarter. Aside from the first quarter, Haven did not look like its 2012 self. "At the beginning we were just playing real good team ball, how we should," Johnson said. "We just started straying away from that." Over the final 24 minutes, Hesston outscored Haven 47-29. Raleigh led all scorers with 18 points while McCartney matched McKinney at 15. The Swathers didn't think it would be a cake walk against the Wildcats. It just went to show there are no off-nights in the CKL.
"I didn't think we'd get them by 18, but this league is really balanced from top to bottom," coach Raleigh said. "There's not much difference top to bottom and there aren't any gimmes."

HTC Teaser Suggests HTC One Smartphone Could Support Canon Lenses
Next Tuesday (2/19 2013) HTC is supposed to announce their new flagship smartphone, the HTC One. Since some time, they are teasing specs and features of the smartphone via Twitter. Yesterday they tweeted the image you see above. You can see the date of the announcement in green letters around the edge of the lens. The brand name is blurred out but it is easily identifiable as a Canon 50mm lens.
What does the teaser suggest? Speculation is that the HTC One could support a DSLR camera lens add-on. The image shows a Canon lens. Will the HTC One be able to use Canon lenses? A handset with interchangeable lenses?
[via androidspin via 9to5google]
What are you daft? Did you actually read what you just wrote. The idea that some twit would spend money on canon glass an then stick it on a piece of plastic, besides the obvious physical absurdity, is just absurd.
HTC is just going to market a camera phone and saythat is produces DSLR results…that's all.
bob b… the "photographer" who never touches a camera but is 7/24 onlinen on blogs….
I shoot all the time
…so ..I guess you are on all the blogs all the time watching me?…
…um…loudmouth…care toshow me your great photographic prowess?
Sounds like a gimmick to me. There are people out there that would by It. Probably the same ones that use their full size ipads to shoot video at sporting events. Just silliness to me.
Makes no sense whatsoever. Why would you stick a honking SLR lens on an itty-bitty smart phone? Defeats the purpose of both.
Anyone considered that the lens used in the phone could have been designed by canon? Rather than being able to use canon lenses. Or maybe the phone lens has an f/1.8 aperture. Maybe even hinting at a 50mm focal length.

This amazing line starts down low in a pit type area, with a bit of a slanted landing. It's a slightly overhanging crimpface on super solid rock. Start with two small crimps close together with a left heelhook and a right toehook. Bust up to a left sidepull crimp, move feet and then a lengthy move into a terribly small righthand crimp. From there, you've got some more moves on small holds and into a decent edge, and to the lip. Should turn out to be a very proud and sick line.
As you hike up the trail and reach the end of the bouldering area, there's a tall boulder with a maroon and green lichen face to your right. The project line is 20-25 feet to its right in the pit area.
Two to three pads.
This thing has me Psyched! It's pretty damn cold up there right now so not much progress lately. As soon as some sunny days roll around, I'm hittin' it up.
Nice to know who's responsible for all the ugly tick marks and ridiculous amounts of chalk marring this beautiful area.
Wow. That's kinda rude, Clack.
Clack, I've been climbing with Misha for years, and if you're suggesting that he is marring an area, you are mistaken. Maybe you need to get your facts right before you accuse someone, or not do it at all.
Yeah...Clack is a super douche! He needs a good marring if you ask me.
I say go with the mob anyways.
Any updates on the problem? Has anyone gotten the FA?
mA77y, there's too much snow up there right now. The Third Flatiron blocks out all the sunlight up there until early summer. The route is climbable up to the lip. From there, it's all snow on the topout slab. Maybe a broom and some warm days, and the proj. will go.... The weather forecast looks great for the upcoming week, maybe some snow will melt.
So where exactly is this thing? I can't seem to find it.
Kinda unpsyched.... This line is raging, god damn hard.
Keep marching up there, Misha, and get that thing done.
I wish I could, Darth.... Just got back from camping/bouldering in the Poudre Canyon and my fingers are raging destroyed right now. Maybe next time, brother. Let me know though how it goes for you up there today.
Very nice, Darth. Good work, man. We should meet up one of these days and hike up there. I'd like to see some other beta besides my own.
For sure!
Any ascents yet?!
I climbed this thing earlier today. There was a lot of chalk on it and since it's been on this site for more than a year it seems unlikely I was the first. Great problem regardless.
Very cool, Greenspan! What do you think as far as the grade?
I just did this boulder yesterday. It's surprisingly good despite being small and a little on the sharp side. While working on it, I broke a crucial thumb catch (leaving another) and cleaned and used an intermediate that was previously untouched. Now I understand the fragile nature of Flatirons stone, and I know that different people will climb the same boulder in different ways, but this boulder has all the earmarks of a climb that was tried but maybe not done. If Greenspan would care to share his or her sequence as well as thoughts on how hard they thought this line to be, maybe I would be less skeptical regarding their ascent.

The New York Yankees announced Friday that left-hander Andy Pettitte is retiring at the end of the season.
"I'm announcing my retirement prior to the conclusion of our season because I want all of our fans to know now -- while I'm still wearing this uniform -- how grateful I am for their support throughout my career," Pettitte said in a statement released by the club. "I want to have the opportunity to tip my cap to them during these remaining days and thank them for making my time here with the Yankees so special.
"I've reached the point where I know that I've left everything I have out there on that field. The time is right. I've exhausted myself, mentally and physically, and that's exactly how I want to leave this game.
"One of the things I struggled with in making this announcement now was doing anything to take away from Mariano's day on Sunday. It is his day. He means so much to me, and has meant so much to my career that I would just hate to somehow take the attention away from him."
Pettitte makes his next start on Sunday and will be his final one at Yankee Stadium. The team is also honoring Rivera, who is retiring.
Pettitte is scheduled to speak to reporters at Yankee Stadium before the team takes on the San Francisco Giants.
Pettitte is 10-10 with a 3.93 ERA this year.
Over his 18-year career, Pettitte is 255-152 with a 3.86 ERA. He is the winningest pitcher in postseason history at 19-11 with a 3.81 ERA and five World Series titles as a Yankee. He is also a three-time All-Star (1996, 2001 and 2010).
The only other team Pettitte played for was the Houston Astros (2004-06). Pettitte's final start will be against the Astros at Minute Maid Park next weekend. He is from the Houston area.
His 218 wins as a Yankee are third in club history behind Whitey Ford (236) and Red Ruffing (231).
Pettitte retired in 2011 but came back a year later. He is 15-14 with a 3.60 ERA in the past two seasons.
Pettitte is a Hall of Fame candidate but his admitted involvement with performance-enhancing drugs in 2007 could affect his chances of being inducted.

Two new Senior Technology videos.
May 18th, 2010Using the Internet to promote a book about why Seniors should use the Internet (and other technologies) is a bit tricky. If they are already online, they probably won't be the book's target audience. If they are NOT online, then they'll never see the online ads or videos.
So the reality is that I'll probably need to use more traditional forms of advertising to reach the primary audience of this book. However, I can still use the Internet to market to online audiences looking to buy a gift for their parents, grandparents, or older friends.
With that in mind, here are two sample video commercials for the book, "The Senior Sleuth's Guide to Technology for Seniors." One of the videos targets a younger consumer looking for a gift for his parent or grandparent. The other video targets the older consumer who might be looking for a gift for a friend or relative. Can you tell which video targets which consumer?
Video #1.
Video #2.

The Erlang book is shipping. On Friday, the truck arrived and we hefted the cases in (mmmm... new book smell), and over the weekend we worked out the logistics. Then today we shipped all the preorders for Joe Armstrong's new Programming Erlang.
I'm really excited about this book, both because I think Erlang's style of message-passing concurrency is just what we need as we enter the multi-core world, and also because I think its functional roots are an interesting way of thinking about programming. I'm blown away by the interest we've seen in this book from Ruby, Java, and C# programmers. I think there's a definite sea change in progress.

"Notes From the Tilt-A-Whirl: A Cinematic Treatment of a Worldview"
I absolutely loved N.D. Wilson's book Notes From the Tilt-A-Whirl: Wide-Eyed Wonder in God's Spoken World. (If you haven't read it, I highly recommend reading it before you see the movie!).
Now they are making a "cinematic treatment of a worldview," setting the book and its themes to cinema. I'm really looking forward to this. Here is the trailer:

Michigan anti-bullying law protects religious bullies
Post: #1
Michigan anti-bullying law protects religious bullies
After long debates and tortuous negotiations, the state of Michigan passed anti-bullying legislation, which on the face of it, should be a good thing. Unfortunately, Michigan has managed to pass a law which, despite bearing a name designed to honor the memory of a victim of bullying, may actually provide legal cover to the worst of the bullies.
The law, Matt's Safe School Law, named in memory of Matt Epling, who committed suicide in the wake of relentless anti-gay bullying, offers a loophole to those who want to bully gay students or anyone else they don't like. All they need to do, according to the newly passed legislation, is claim that their bullying was based on "a sincerely held religious belief or moral conviction." Although not mentioned specifically, all those who bully gay people might need to do to avoid prosecution under the new law is quote Leviticus 20:13 which condemns to death those who practice at least some kinds of homosexual sex. But this is not simply about gay people, lest anyone think that is not sufficiently problematic. Alternatively, one who bullies Jews might escape accountability under "Matt's Law" by simply invoking the words of another Matthew -- the Gospel author. He reports that Jews in the time of Jesus declared (Matt. 27:25), "His (Jesus') blood be upon us and upon our children." Presumably, one could claim that bullying Jews is nothing more than the bully's attempt to live out the implications of these nearly 2,000 year old words. ... http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/gues..._blog.html |

Goal Accomplished!!!! - Stacia Naquin
Updated: 12/12/2013 - I finally did my pull up!!! It was a New Year's Resolution that took me ALL YEAR! But I did it.
A frame from the Anonymous video. (Taken from the video on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVSQ3JIgIXE)
The hacker-activist group Anonymous says it hijacked the website of the U.S. Sentencing Commission to avenge the death of Aaron Swartz, an Internet activist who committed suicide.
The website of the commission, an independent agency of the judicial branch, was taken over early Saturday and replaced with a message warning that when Swartz killed himself two weeks ago "a line was crossed."
The hackers say they've infiltrated several government computer systems and copied secret information that they now threaten to make public.
Family and friends of Swartz, who helped create Reddit and RSS, say he killed himself after he was hounded by federal prosecutors. Officials say he helped post millions of court documents for free online and that he illegally downloaded millions of academic articles from an online clearinghouse.

Did I miss something? Was a tongue planted in cheek with this reply? As far as I know there are very few web interfaces to running SGE (or LSF, or ...) jobs. If I am wrong please do provide links/references. Globus is not a web interface (last I checked), but a large group of middleware to manage something that looks a lot closer to the definition of a grid than SGE. SGE is a job scheduler (with a name "engineered" to make you think it is a one-stop-shop as a grid-in-a-box). My company is interested in (and we are developing) web portals for end user cluster work, so if you know of any, we would like to hear about them. Good open-source platforms that are current/supported could be worth looking at (and will save us time/development effort). There seem to be lots of bits of abandonware in the grid portal/user-interface area. We don't want to re-invent wheels, but at the same time, we don't want to adopt abandoned ones either.

Recipe by wendy
"The pretzels add a great crunchy coating that sticks to the fish when frying. The flavor is excellent and these fillets serve well alone or as a fish sandwich."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 quart oil for frying
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound frozen cod fillets, thawed
2 eggs
3/4 cup crushed pretzels
This was VERY good! I pan fried it in a deep skillet, 5 minutes per side, and it came out perfectly. I was worried the larger pieces of pretzel wouldn't stay on, but they did. The coating was wonderfully crunchy. Will make again!
Okay. I won't make it again, but it wasn't horrible.
58 Ratings
Followed the recipe, except used talapia instead of cod & boy where these good! Thought the seasoning was perfect. Was worried that they may fry too long because they got fairly dark, but, came out nice and crunchy & perfect--not dry. I don't know if it makes a huge difference but, after I egg/coated the fish, I let them rest for about 5-10min. before frying--I just think they set up better. Served w/ tarter sauce.
This was a great way to coat fish!! It turned out great! All I had to do was tell my kids that it had pretzels on it and they were all for it! I added a bit more seasoning and ended up crushing a little more than I had initially. I thought that it was super!
I really liked the coating, but I will add some Old Bay for a little more flavor next time. I fried the fish in EVOO to make it a little healthier.
This was good. I changed the recipe, but not on purpose. I didn't realize until i started cooking that i didn't have enough pretzels! I made up the differnce with some herbed stuffing mix. Pan fried them in just a little bit of oil and was very surprised how tasty they came out. My 5 yr old thought i bought them from the store because they tasted like our favorite brand of frozen fish sticks! DH, the fried fish snob, complimented me on how crunchy they were even after they were reheated. Great recipe. Will make again.
My new favorite fish! I cooked some fresh water bass. I also added a little garlic powder and seasoned salt to the flour. I mixed olive oil and corn oil for cooking. Great recipe!
I will definately do this one again!! Folled recipe exactly and it made a very tasty dinner with a side of potatoe salad!!

NewsChannel 15 has learned a Darlington County Grand Jury indicted Claudette Hulsey, 47, several weeks ago.
The exact charges against Hulsey include Arson/ Burning Personal Property to Defraud Insurer, Presenting False Claim for Insurance Payment, Making False Insurance Claim to Obtain Benefits for Fire Loss, and Arson/Third degree.
The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division says Hulsey set fire to the store for financial gain.
The South Carolina Attorney General's Office is prosecuting this case. We're waiting to learn when Hulsey's trial will be held.
According to the arrest warrant, Hulsey set fire to the store on January 26, 2011. The warrant states Hulsey made conflicting statements during the investigation and that her financial records and medical reports were not consistent with her statements to investigators.
On the charge she filed a false police report, the arrest warrant states Hulsey called 911 from the store and said she'd been robbed and her store set on fire by "two unknown black males."
Hartsville police and the Darlington County Sheriff's Office assisted in the investigation and Hulsey's arrest.
Hulsey's report of the crime led many working in the downtown Hartsville to fear for their safety.
Hartsville police also stepped up patrols in the area and released sketches of possible witnesses to the crime.
The Greater Hartsville Chamber of Commerce offered a reward of more than $20,000 for information leading to an arrest.

Life is a never-ending summer in LA's Beach Cities. Redondo Beach and surfing are forever intertwined. On weekends, many Angelinos head to Santa Monica to relax in the ocean and hang out at the Third Street Promenade. The Getty Center, an art-world powerhouse, is nestled in the nearby hills north of Brentwood. Santa Monica's neighbor, Malibu, is home to The Getty Villa and its antiquities.

"Great Location / Poor Ammenities"
Not at all what I expected. Rooms quite small, air conditioning is a fan, second bed in the Deluxe Suite was in a separate room and "filled" the room, bed not comfortable for mate, television was a television only with limited "off the wall stations", no premiums or movie stations. I would recommend if someone needed to be near pier, or downtown or […] near the premium hotels. Sorry. Just expected more. Hotel California, you can check in but could not wait to check out. DevamıGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
Parking was upposed to be free but then when I went to check out i was told it is only free during day - for overnight we have to look for parking on the street or pay $33. NOT HAPPY about that. No A/C and it was warm....plus noisy to keep window open. Location is great to walk to board walk.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Our Stay At Hotel California Was Nice"
Everything was nice, staff were nice, the room was nice, the service, i.e., getting ice for the room could have been alittle faster, waited 10 minutes. Location is just a short walk to the beach, and pier. But located on a noisy street, and the ceiling was alittle thin, you could really hear the people above us. Other than that, it was a very nice stay, […] and would stay again. DevamıGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu

"Great boutique hotel near the beach"
Loved the decor and very comfortable bed. Close to Santa Monica pier and Venice beach. Will stay here again.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"very good place for staying, but too expensive!"
this hotel is a good place where near the beach, many restaurants and good traffic. hotel room was clean well but we arrived there about 1100PM we could not see toilet paper!Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"lot of money & noise, not a good geezer getaway"
Too expensive (but it is an expensive town), charge additional very pricey per-night parking. Advertised as steps from the beach, but the adverts didn't say lots of very steep steps, followed by more steps, to get to the beach. Too much noice, I was having complet "get off my lawn!" monents by 1:30 am. I'm just too old for this place, and it was too […] much money for the experience. DevamıGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Not quite as advertised"
The Hotel is small, right on the strip of Ocean Avenue near larger resort-style hotels. The staff was v friendly and accommodating, which was one of the best and most redeeming features about it. Our room was almost laughably small. The shower is about 3' square, so not much room for a medium-sized guy. The bathroom cannot possibly fit two people […] in it, which isn't a big deal but tough when you are trying to get ready. We had to ask daily for towels, but the room was clean otherwise and maid service was fine. They served breakfast every day, coffee/juice/water and pastries, which was nice. The rooms upstairs seem to be very loud: you can hear your neighbors and, if your room faces the street, the cars all night long. It did have a decent access to the beach, but still a 200-yard-or-so walk down some long steps. Not a problem for my party, but it's not "walk out to beach" convenient either. One standout employee was "Mike" the front desk person during the day for most days we were there; he was young, smart, friendly, and able to do anything that we needed quickly and easily with a smile on his face. Another note: parking is dicey at best...they have no more than 12 real spots for over 20 rooms, so it can be a challenge. If you simply want a convenient-to-things, friendly-enough, clean-enough boutique type place with some interesting history, this place is fine; we would stay elsewhere in Santa Monica if we had to stay there again.

"Near too the Pier."
it was a very good hotel. Room was nice size, nice terrace outside the room. short walk distance to the beach and pier. the pull down is very minimal breakfast and when asked about parking nearby (since it was full on site), it was nothing, but you could pay $ 36 night at hotel next door. we found the parking garage 500 meters away which cost $ 14 for […] 24 hours on brodway. except it was a very enjoyable experience and a central and well located hotel. DevamıGerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
Loved this hotel, it's an amazing location and a real find. I shall be going back!!Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Nothing to write home about."
Small room. Noisy. If you're lucky enough to get one of the few parking spots they charge you $36 to park there overnight.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Great location, but that's the only positive"
Hotel California is located very close to the beach, but that's the only thing that recommends it. The rooms weren't particularly clean (the bed linens looked fine, but there was a hair wound into one of the bath towels), there was no air conditioning (and no safe way to leave the windows open in the first floor rooms), and I'm hoping the decor was […] ironic (framed posters for "Escape from LA" and "City of Angels"). The staff wasn't super attentive, and the free breakfast was, well, free. It's not a hole, but I wouldn't go back. It's not a great hotel for a business stay, with a couch wedged into the room rather than a desk and the slowest wifi I've ever seen in a hotel. DevamıGerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Great location"
Locationis the key selling point. Basic but clean room right onthe beach.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"A maintenance makeover would make a difference."
The hotel has potential. It's in a fantastic location and has a nice casual feel and look, the decor is fun. However when we got there we realised it's just a dressed up motel and lots of things were in need of repair. Broken towel rack, safe didn't work, bedside lamp power plug was bent, and the room very cramped. Also, when there is a double bed, […] it's good to have two bedside tables and lamps (not one)! We were given a front room and couldn't sleep at all for the traffic and carpark noise. The next day the duty manager very kindly upgraded us to the only available room, which happened to be a large suite, at no extra charge. Although we were really grateful, even the bigger, quieter room had problems - a window that wouldn't open properly (it came off the track), locks on doors that didn't work very well, the ceiling fan didn't work properly. This would all have been fine except that it was not cheap - definitely not motel prices! So even with its great location, it's hard to justify the cost unless some money is spent on soundproofing and maintenance in the rooms. DevamıGerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Great Location, but................"
The location was perfect, the room was nothing like it looked like in the photos. We booked a king room which under the hotel description gave us a bed with a surfboard headboard (which we had) and a skylit jacuzzi. We had a shower that you could hardly fit in that had a 4 inch round circle of black mold on the roof, mold on the shower curtain and all […] of the shower floors and walls. DevamıGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"BEWARE of some things!!"
I was so angry when I arrived and saw there was a $36 nightly parking fee which I had not been previously informed of. I ended up parking blocks away to obviate that charge and felt resentful of it all week long. My room was very hot (no A/C at hotel) and the fan broke, although it was fixed that day. The "continental breakfast" was a joke: terrible […] pre-packaged little muffin-like items, coffee with powder creamer, etc. The staff was friendly. The location wonderful. Though I would never stay there again, for the reasons stated, DevamıGerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu

"Affordable....relative to near by accomadations"
It was close to the pier, nice walk. I can lie about the rest if this is not enough.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"not bad - would stay again"
It was a great location. The drawbacks were- bathrooms super tiny and had request toilet paper. No ice bin or water outside of bathroom tap.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Location is the best"
The location of this hotel is spectacular. Everything is within walking distance and the beach is literally steps away. In terms of the hotel itself, it is pretty standard but comfortable and clean. No room service available or minibar. Perhaps slightly overpriced in my view but still overall I had a great stay.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"WIthin walking distance of beach and shops"
All was good. Needed to print out boarding passes and the printer was not hooked up to the computer. Overall, it was good for what we needed.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"GREAT stay in a GREAT Hotel :)"
The staff was amazing :) The front desk check-in was quick and the staff really seemed happy to be there. The hotel was very clean and the location was great !! I could see the beach from the hotel, it was only a 2 min walk to beach. I will stay here again when I return :)Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Down-to-earth charm"
I stayed a week here and while a little apprehensive, given some reviews I'd read, overall I was pleasantly surprised. The room was bright and clean, the bathroom basic, small yet functional. The location was lovely, just by the sea. For me the drawbacks were the temperamental key cards (needed reprogramming/changing almost every day) and from a security […] standpoint, although I was assured that there were plenty security cameras etc., the rooms seemed too accessible from the street - my bedroom door opened out onto a balcony walkway in front. Although there may be someone on reception most of the time there were no security personnel that you'd typically see in a hotel. Overall, though, as a woman on my own, I did feel relatively safeI. The internet connection was good although it is not entirely free as advertised as they charge a a fee if you want to go on certain websites (youtube being one)! Breakfast was as advertised so no complaints there. I mostly went to Cora's Caffe just down the road and the food there is delicious. All said, I would consider returning to Hotel California. I have fond memories of my stay there. It had a unique, down-to-earth charm to it. DevamıGerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"22 year wedding anniversary"
The location is awesome. The hotel itself is very very cozy and well maintained. Staff was awesome. I would recommend this hotel to anyone and everyone.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Not much for over $200.00 per night"
Hard bed and especially low class when there is no electrical outlet or counter space in the bathroom; this is just the basics I don't care how old a facility is! Manager allowed a parked motorcycle to almost block the entrance through the gate to the rooms; it was never moved. She was more fascinated by the motorcycle owner than the convenience of […] the guests. And last but not least, having pounding foot noise above our room because there is no insulation in the floors. I mean loud pounding! DevamıGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"A place to sleep"
Not a hotel at all but a small motel, although one that charges $35 to park your car in addition to the room price. Breakfast is a coffee pot and some muffins in the motel reception. But the room was clean, reasonably quiet, the shower was cramped but worked fine and the bed comfortable. And the location is great.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Close to the beach"
Same side of the street as the beach. Not a good continental breakfast but surrounding area was so beautiful that u can walk to get breakfast. Room was cute and beachy.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
On line photos somewhat deceiving, hotel is very cute from the outside but the bathroom is very small & aged. One front desk member had a bit of attitude when asked for assistance and directions, which was quite off-putting. Breakfast was included, but is very minimal. Other than that, the location is good.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
Nice for the price. I just didnt like having to pay $36 for parking for one night (less than 24 hours).Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Great place for the price"
The rooms was a bit small, and the shower was extremely tiny, but overall good quality hotel for the money. Great location!Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Close to the Beach!"
Nice and cosy little hotel just a few minutes walk from the beach and the Santa Monica Pier. Too expensive with 36 USD per night for overnight parking though. OK breakfast, not anything special. Rooms are cozy but lack AC, so in the summer it might get a bit hot. A big minus was that our bath tub didn't have a plug, and when we asked the reception they […] just said that they didn't have that... ?? Still, a hotel we would return to because of the nice look and the closeness to the beach. DevamıGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Happy location Unhappy sleep"
Great Location but run down- beds and linens leave alot to be desired. If they got decent bedding and wireless connections that actually worked half the time I'd consider staying- otherwise over priced and under delivered.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Great Hotel for Beach Business"
I enjoyed staying at this hotel. The best way to describe it is if you want a nice hotel experience with a lobby and or pool ect. then this hotel is not for you. But if you want a great clean room right next to the Santa Monica Peir then this hotel is perfect.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Living' it up at The Hotel California!"
Quaint rooms with a total surfer feel! You know you're at the beach!Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Worst service ever!"
Terrible, absolutely terrible. They treated me like garbage. They acted like they were the customer and I was there to serve them. Some people just do not get it. They told me that they have lots of rooms available. I told them, "go figure." This hotel will not be in business much longer.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Close to Beach"
My stay was very nice. Really cool little rooms, but decorated really cool for a beach experience.Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Only for hardcore surfers!"
Too close to the pier so never really felt safe rooms were small and you could hear everything going on in upstairs and next door rooms. There was sand in the bed even though we didn't go to the beach.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Amazing location for friendly haven!"
We loved staying at the Hotel California! It's technically a motel, and wasn't quite luxurious. But was comfortable, safe, clean and friendly. And the location.. wow! We wanted to be near the beach and the pier, and couldn't have been closer. Made it possible to pop for a swim or a sunbathe at the drop of a hat. The staff helped direct us to local […] shopping areas (the 3rd st. promenade) which was great. Recommend walking along the coast to venice beach too. And now i'll stop writing this review as I'm making myself sad that I'm no longer in Santa Monica and the Hotel California! DevamıGerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Checked Out After 2 Hours"
Hotel California's pictures did not reflect the actual room, the amenities, the hotel grounds, the air conditioning. From afar, it looked like a kitschy LA retro hotel. The advertised air conditioning. They did have a ceiling fan, windows that could not open more than 6 inches and it was 95 degrees out that day. Inside the gates, the grounds were dirty, […] bugs flying over garbage, people with the room doors open , it looked like a tenement. I left my room to walk to the Holiday Inn across the street to make sure I had a place to stay before leaving the hotel. I asked the front desk repeatedly if they had cooler rooms, ones that I didn't have to carry my luggage up a flight of stairs...they just shrugged their shoulders and said that this was the best they could do. I promptly called Hotels.com, told them of my problem, they called the front desk and they agreed to credit me one day stay only. Unfortunately, It took over an hour to process this credit as the telephone clerk could not reach the manager to get an approval for my credit. Proximity to 3rd Street Promenade is great....one of the reasons I chose this hotel. DevamıGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
Our room had a skylight right over the bed, we woke up with sun in our faces at 6am! And there's no overnight parking available!Gerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Very sweet, would defo go back"
Hotel was very cute, literally steps from the beach. Teeny tiny car-park - be warned & we were blocked in by the staff who were a bit obnoxious when we asked them to move so we could go to the airport. Also had some very noisy teenagers, but the hotel staff came to tell them to shut up :)Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Close to Santa Monica Pier"
Great location close to santa monica pier. Clean rooms. Only downside no airconditioning and no elevators.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Worth the risk."
I took my 16 year old daughter here for a mother daughter trip. I chose this hotel because of the location, price and the kitchy surf decor. We loved it! I travel to The LA area often and I usually do not take risk when choosing a hotel. This was a pleasant surprise. The only thing that I found to be bad was the parking. The hotel lot is tiny tiny. […] The price to park is too high but the street meters are free after 9:00 pm on most days. Those meters can be difficult to find. Regardless we will be back. DevamıGerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Good location but thin walls"
Fantastic location and cute decor. Queen bed was not a true queen so my fiance's feet hung off the end. No ac wasn't a big deal the day we stayed because it wasn't too hot but would be rough on a hot day. Rooms on the bottom floor get a ton of noise from upstairs. Breakfast spread was puny, a few muffins and a bagel or two.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
"Great little hotel"
Great hotel for the price and location. Very clean and lovely staff who were very helpful. Only negative thing was the noice of the people staying above us. The floor boards were very noisy. Would definitely stay here again.Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
Lousy experience. Car park n room rates too highGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Spare yourself the curiosity"
My curiosity got the best of me so I had to try it out. The hardwood floors are nice for aesthetics, but between the hard floors and the paper-thin walls, you can hear every movement and conversation from surrounding rooms. The old doors make the building shake when closing. Got about 1 hour of sleep due to alll the noise. Spend the extra money and […] stay next door at Loews. Also, it is a disgrace to The Eagles that this hotel tries to piggyback on the famous song which does NOT reference this hotel. DevamıGerçek Hotels.com misafiri yorumu
"Great spot and great bed!"
Staff were dis-intersted but the comfort and cleanliness of the room made up for this. It is very well located which some could read as it is a little noisy but when the bed is that comfy and all the action is at your doorstep you can't complain. I would go back for sure!Gerçek Expedia misafiri yorumu
