Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I have two children currently attending Hopi. My children have completely different personalities and learning styles. The teachers are amazing and are able to determine each of my kids' strengths and weaknesses and teach them accordingly. My kids are excited to go to school each day as the school really fosters a love of learning. The staff is also very concerned about the children's emotional well being and are extremely supportive and responsive to any concerns the parents may have. When issues arise, the teachers and staff dedicate their time and utilize school resources to resolve them. I feel very lucky to be able to send my children each day to such a wonderful school with such amazing, dedicated teachers.
I have 3 kids all attending or attended Hopi. In the past 7 years that I have been a parent at Hopi all my children have thrived. Each one of my children have different learning styles and the teachers at Hopi are able to help each one of them thrive in a positive environment. I have felt the teachers and staff are always looking out for every student and helping them succeed and most importantly to build their love of learning which will follow them all through their schooling years.
I have pulled my child from this school. I was outraged by the teacher not wanting to take the time to provide my child with the tools she needs to succeed. Instead, the teacher wanted to retain her simply because she is the youngest in her class. My child attends another school and is excelling. I would tell any parent to be careful and really pay attention to what your child is being taught.
I have two children attending Hopi-very different kids. What is great about Hopi is-both are thriving due to the exceptional teachers. Hopi teachers are masters at differentiating instruction and making sure that all levels are getting what they need. The communication with parents is tremendous! I have friends who text teachers at night and get immediate response. These teachers are committed, engaged and want to be there. I'm a believer in effective teachers being the most important factor in a child's educational experience and all the teachers at Hopi would qualify as effective. Lastly, the loving, supportive environment at Hopi makes it a very happy place for children. I'm so grateful to have Hopi be my children's educational foundation.
The teachers are amazing, the kids are happy, the campus is safe and there are SO many parents involved!! We moved into this School District for a reason, we love HOPI!
It is the best school because of all the parent involvement and the tight knit family community that has been formed as a result of staff and parents working together for the good of the children.
From the administration, to the teachers, to the parents, to the wonderful kids, you will not find a more dedicated and enthusiastic group. The resources are incredible, the education is strong, and it is a very positive culture.
This school has provided an excellent atmosphere that encourages students' learning experiences and desire to excell.
This school has a fabulous level of teamwork from the Administration, Teachers, Parent's Association, Dad's Group, and kids. Each teacher has special talents that nurtures and encourages children to learn. Love it!!!!!
Hopi is a fabulous elementary school. I currently have two children attending Hopi, one in third grade and one in first. We have exceptional teachers and administration at Hopi. Both teachers and admin. have always been responsive to the needs of my children. My children are not super outgoing, rich or perfect, but they have found friends that are like them and are very happy. There is a place for everyone, in fact the PTA has and is working very hard to provide extras for all children, including a talent show, a science fair, and an art fair. I am also very happy that Scottsdale School District is transitioning to a new math program beginning the school year 2010/2011. This math program is very well rounded for all learners, and will align with middle school curriculum. We are lucky to be a part of such a great community!
i truly think Hopi is an exceptional school with many different types of activities to engage the children. I have two girls, one in fourth grade and one in second. Neither have been bullied nor do they have problems with cliques or other issues. Every teacher my children have had have been amazing. the entire staff, from front office, to custodians, to teacher support are amazing. I feel the parental involvement is outstanding as is the dedicated PTA. For those who have issues with other parents at the school i find that you get out what you put in. I for one feel that most parents are caring and thoughtful, however some are not there to be your best friend. remember it is a school! however, Hopi is a very social school as there are so many parents always on campus assisting a teacher.
I have 2 children currently attending Hopi and have had one graduate and move on to middle school. What I like best about Hopi? The number one asset this school has is parental involvement (mostly in the lower grades). The administration and faculty are phenomenal. We have never had a 'bad' teacher and as a matter of fact, choosing who we want for the next year has been a problem. There are too many great teachers to choose from! Neither my son nor daughter have any problems with bullying and I find other children at the school to be well behaved and respectful. So happy we moved into the area!
I have 2 children at Hopi and a 3rd starting kindergarten next year. I have been very happy with the school. We have never had a bad teacher--all are extemely caring and dedicated to academic and social success. The current principal. Lori Colling, is very accessible to parents and truly wants both parents and children to have a good experience. I have never had a bullying problem, but I will say there is a certain degree of 'social pressure' especially for girls, which I think occurs in all upper-middle class schools. Other parents are generally friendly, though there are of course the occassional snobs. All-in-all, we love Hopi and are glad to be a part of the community.
While there are cliques at Hopi, I've found cliques at other schools as well, including private Christian schools. I have found that the children at Hopi are, for the most part, respectful and well behaved. They are also eager to learn. My advice is to teach your child what a friend is and how to be one to someone else. Teaching by example is important too, as is having a spiritual and community base from which to glean wisdom and experience. Home schooling is certainly an option for some, but I am not willing to walk away from our public education system. When teachers, parents and administrators work together, children benefit. We have been very happy with Hopi.
I had two older children go through Hopi and we all loved it. My youngest is 7 years younger and in that time the school changed. It is populated with bullies and the parents are bullies. The administration and teachers try very hard but the type of parents who have moved into the neighborhood have ruined an excellent school. We home school now and my son has never been happier.
Hopi is better than most public schools in the area, and the parental involvement is the difference. However, we've been disappointed with our children's education in the upper grades and are now considering private schools. We are discovering that the private schools are often a full grade ahead of Hopi, so our kids will have a hard time transitioning. The cliques at Hopi can be really difficult, especially for shy children. The girls have been particularly difficult.
Hopi is a wonderful school! It has quality academic programs. Like any AZ public school, it is suffering somewhat from budget cuts. Some quality teachers are needing to be laid off, but that is about the only problem. The kids are great. The acdemics are wonderful. They make sure you know how to read by 1st grade! Not many public schools can provide that. It is also generally safe and free from bullies. It has a great art program, with a great art teacher. The sports are great, with all kinds of different sports choices. Music is great. In 5th grade you can take chorus, and they have band and strings available beginning in 4th grade. The parents are very involved in making sure the school is as clean and they really make sure the teachers are good and the activities are hands-on and academically enrciching. I would highly recommend Hopi!
I moved here from Philadelpha this summer and picked this neighborhood so we could enroll into Hopie, per the stats I saw posted on Great School site. Since we are now less then 30 days from the end of the year I can say I am extremeley happy with the teachers and the extracurricular activities which we have taken part in. We are happy with all that goes on in Hopie and which we can get more involved next year. I want to expres my thanks to all those parents who had the time to help out in the classrooms, and wish I was able to to the same.

President Obama during a visit to FEMA on Oct. 28. / Pool
President Obama dropped by the Federal Emergency Management Agency on Wednesday, en route to inspect storm damage in New Jersey.
"Overnight, the president continued to receive updates from his team on the ongoing recovery efforts, including efforts by state and local officials and private utility companies to restore power," said a White House statement.
"This morning," the statement said, "the president will again receive a substantial briefing from his team on the impacts and the extensive federal support being provided to support state and local recovery efforts. The president continues to direct his team to lean forward aggressively."
Obama is not expected to comment during this visit. He was spotted at a conference table, flanked by FEMA Director Craig Fugate and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.
Later Wednesday, Obama will tour damage from Hurricane Sandy along the Jersey shore, accompanied by Gov. Chris Christie, R-N.J.
They will be "talking with citizens who are recovering from the storm and thanking first responders who put their lives at risk to protect their communities," said the White House.
Obama is being careful to avoid the fate of predecessor George W. Bush, heavily criticized in 2005 for the administration's response to Hurricane Katrina.

Wifi streaming? Huzzzzah!
Is it one stream or can it offer a LQ 1mbps stream while also recording a higher quality proxy?
Wifi streaming? Huzzzzah!
Is it one stream or can it offer a LQ 1mbps stream while also recording a higher quality proxy?
Jim, Jarred,
This is fantastic. I too would request a capture format that would be a little easier to edit, but please remember those of us on the "dark side" of computing. A format that works well for PCs would be good too!
This is one of the most exciting announcements I've heard
This is great news. I was just discussing that the ability to record both ProRes and RAW in the Alexa is going to be an advantage.
No more!
The option to record to a 4K intermediate codec (like Cineform 4K) will be even better.
This is an exciting announcement Jim and I'm sure you have more to come. H.264 seems like a logical choice but it's really not ideal for editing. How about prores or mxf?
Btw this is going to be a mess for the unions... Love to see how they figure this one out :) Video assists are gonna fight hard to keep playback in their domain but I hate to say their position feels more antiquated everyday.
Well f**k me. This module is awsome news. Especially for monitoring and streaming, as others have said, not the best format for editing proxies, though some other companies announcements at NAB might make it more feasible.
Any chance this will work alongside future proxy modules so we can use it for streaming/ on set monitoring and get say a proRes proxy from another module?
Ipad plus module plus remote FF?
Question: Do we know if there would be a delay in such a setup, and would it be enough to affect a focus pulling?
Alex who?
This news is NUTS!
Good thing I didn't see these news bits trickling in last night. I woulda never gotten to bed for today's flight to Vegas. Can't wait to meet the Chain Gang...
Awesome, awesome news!
Thanks a million Jim, Jarred and the Red Team.

Go straight for about a mile and take the first right at some traffic lights soon after Carlisle United football ground (right hand side) and just after "The Beehive" pub (left hand side). The road is signed A595 West and is just after some carparking signs but the sign is easy to miss! Follow the road around a left hand bend and you will then pass Carlisle College on your right.

In the "Missing Game" I learned a lot about internet safety. I learned not to ever talk to people you don't actually know. You shouldn't go into open chats anyway.
Fantasma got Zack to go with him by pretending he's some kind of person Zack would like. He told Zack how amazing life would be with him, and he believed him. I mean .. who wouldn't ?
The detective work in this game is hard, yet kinda fun. You have to solve a lot of tough puzzles to try and rescue Zack.
This game gave me a pretty good idea of how to solve a case. However, I bet detectives and police put A LOT more work into it.
Though some students think it is fun I would suggest you not to do it anymore. It is kind of boring .. sorry !

The rich may be rich and the poor may be poor, but a nonpartisan think tank says there's a way to eliminate state income taxes on the poorest Virginians while providing as much as a 10 percent tax cut to everyone else. The Thomas Jefferson Institute for Public Policy on Friday unveiled a plan to restructure Virginia's tax system – which the group says could generate substantial economic growth. The nonprofit group's report recommends slashing certain business taxes and income taxes while expanding the sales tax to currently untaxed services. "By expanding the current sales tax to most of the industries that do not currently collect it from their end-user individuals, every individual taxpayer can be substantially helped," said Michael Thompson, president of the Thomas Jefferson Institute. "The competitive business environment in Virginia can be enhanced, and our state and local governments would not lose a penny." The institute, based in Springfield, advocates a philosophy of "limited government, free enterprise and individual responsibility." Its new economic study, "Tax Restructuring in Virginia: Revenue Neutral Path for Improving Virginia's Economy," was prepared by Chmura Economics and Analytics, a Richmond consulting firm. "Basically, this is a collaborative team effort," Xiaobing Shuai, Chmura's senior economist, told reporters during a telephone news conference. "What Chmura Economics did in this study is go through probably 100-plus sales tax exemptions, and then try to estimate the value of those sales tax exemptions." A computer model developed by economists at the Beacon Hill Institute, an independent public policy foundation at Suffolk University in Boston, tested various scenarios for overhauling Virginia's tax system. Nine economic scenarios were put through the tax model. "We took Chmura's numbers, which is a static model that doesn't account for the positive economic benefits of the tax restructuring, and put them in our dynamic model and ran the nine scenarios that you see in the study," said Paul Bachman, director of research at Beacon Hill Institute. "The model resolves for new values, and we get new values for jobs, investment and disposable income. What we are doing, in economic terms, is shifting some of the tax burden away from businesses and households in some scenarios and putting it onto an untaxed service sector." Virginia currently exempts almost all services, from haircuts to auto repair, from sales taxes. A major goal of the Thomas Jefferson Institute's plan is to eliminate three taxes that business owners consider onerous and an impediment to creating jobs: • The Business Professional Occupation Licensing tax, which is levied on gross receipts. • The Machine and Tool tax, which is levied on equipment a business buys. • The Merchants Capital tax, which is levied on a business' inventory. Virginia businesses must pay those taxes regardless of whether they make a profit. Thompson called them "job-destroying taxes," saying they discourage businesses from expanding and hiring more employees. The Thomas Jefferson Institute initiated its study to see if it was possible to eliminate those taxes and restructure the state's tax system in a revenue-neutral manner that could improve Virginia's economy. The nine scenarios outlined in the study range from a relatively small impact to a radical overhaul. The first scenario, for example, would simply eliminate the BPOL, M&T and Merchants Capital taxes and make up the revenue by extending the sales tax to certain currently untaxed services. The study said this would create 900 private-sector jobs. Other scenarios suggested not only eliminating the three business taxes but also eliminating the lowest income tax bracket and cutting other personal income tax rates. Under these scenarios, the sales tax would be expanded to more services. In some scenarios, the sales tax would be cut, too. (It's currently 4 percent for the state and 1 percent for local government.) The scenarios did not specify exactly what types of services would be taxed. The study acknowledged that taxing medical bills, health insurance premiums, private school tuition and financial fees probably wouldn't fly. The more extensive scenarios would create at least 40,000 jobs, the study said. |

I just want to clarify, as I was one of the four witnesses/victims.... Even tho it states she was driving 90 mph, we did not see that because I refused to speed down Chico way knowing there was a school zone coming up. There was a car that did follow her but I don't think they ever got up to 90 mph, when we got thru the school zone SAFELY and saw them pulled over, I stopped to make sure the woman was okay because she really did a number on her truck. She was completely out of line and was assaulting anyone that tried to help her sit down and wait for law enforcement. So just to let you know, the story you read and what really happens are two different things....

Constitution compromises please most delegates | | Print | |
Written by Richard email@example.com | |||
Thursday, 23 June 2011 12:21 | |||
No one got everything they wanted at the June 15-16 meeting to discuss revisions to the Turks and Caicos Islands Constitution, but most agreed that the result is something most people can live with. "I was very impressed with the really statesman-like attitude of the political parties and the other people in the delegation," Foreign Minister Henry Bellingham said after the meeting in London. "We can't agree on everything, but what we can agree on is that we're all in this to try and do our level best for the people of the Turks and Caicos Islands. They deserve a great future." Bellingham said there was a sense of suspicion that the meetings arranged by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) were a sham and that nothing would be accomplished, but he believes the outcome should dispel that thought. Both party leaders believe they got some good results along with disappointments. "I thought the meetings went as well as could have been expected in the circumstances," said Clayton Green, leader of the Progressive National Party. "I think we did not come back empty handed. Having said that, I thought on some key issues the British administration could have given more than they gave and in other cases they did not have to go where they went." "One thing I was really annoyed by was the fact that without it being in Kate Sullivan's recommendations on the second day of the discussion we heard the minister wished to see term limits for the premier. That came out of left field, and to this day the U.K. administration, members of the FCO have not been able to present any argument as to why that should be the case." People's Democratic Movement Leader Doug Parnell said his team had a few disappointments but for the most part he was pleased with the outcome. "Well, I'll never be satisfied until we can achieve the type of self determination for our people that would provide every man and woman who call themselves a Turks and Caicos Islander full and complete satisfaction of what's in our own Constitution; however, I must say that given the point where we started from in the draft, and certainly coming out of the recent history where the constitution was suspended and the legislature disbanded, I must say I think we have made some great strides in these direct talks with U.K. ministers." Parnell didn't support the premier's term limit, but he said it was not a "deal breaker." However, he was not pleased that the absolute right to a jury trial was stricken from the Constitution. "I must say I was disappointed that I did not get the type of support that I was expecting to get from other delegates on that provision, so I'm very, very disappointed in that, that's a very sad thing for me to report," Parnell said. Consultative Forum Chairwoman Lillian Misick has been at odds with the party leaders, criticizing them for refusing to take part in consultations and for their support of protests and marches. But she was pleased with the outcome of the meetings. "I am confident that, despite the protests of a vocal minority, the vast (silent) majority of our people will proudly embrace our new Constitution when it comes into force in due course," Misick said. "I hope this experience will help these party leaders see the wisdom now of working with the forum to meet the other milestones that Mr. Bellingham and Alan Duncan, minister of state for International Development, set out for return to home rule. Most notable in this respect are the efforts underway to return our budget to surplus and reform our civil service." Advisory County member Doreen Quelch-Missick said she too was happy with the outcome. "I feel confident that going forward, we will have the right Constitution for this time in our history. The team at the FCO and Minister Bellingham were quite receptive to our positions, and I would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to the FCO team."

South African sprinter Oscar Pistorius, shown warming up during the 2012 Olympics, faces allegations that he shot and killed Reeva Steenkamp at his home on Feb. 14. (Brian Peterson / Minneapolis Star Tribune / August 3, 2012) |
South African authorities have completed their investigation into the shooting death of Oscar Pistorius' girlfriend and expect the famed sprinter -- known as "Blade Runner" -- to be served with an indictment early next week.
Lt. Gen. Solomon Makgale, a police spokesman, told the Associated Press that investigators were convinced Pistorius has a charge to answer.
The double-amputee, who competed for his country at the 2012 London Olympics, faces allegations that he shot and killed Reeva Steenkamp at his home on Feb. 14.
Freed on bail since late February, Pistorius has claimed that he accidentally shot Steenkamp after mistaking her for an intruder in the early morning hours.
Reports suggest the couple may have been arguing. Pistorius could face 25 years to life in prison if convicted of premeditated murder.
His next court appearance was scheduled for Monday in Pretoria. Officials could serve an indictment and set a trial date at that time.

So how is this scandal and the general's resignation going to affect the war on terror joining us now retired major general Bob scales who is a Fox News military analyst.
And before we start general scales -- happy veterans day to you thank you so much for your service to our country.
And thanks to all the men and women who keep this country safe and great General Petraeus someone I know that you have had a a lot of respect for.
So much to cover here in the war on terror how does this affect if at all our ability to keep the country safe.
No Rick I think it affects it enormously and I think that's one of the issues that's been missing.
In this most recent dialogue.
-- Petraeus is so uniquely qualified.
To continue the war.
Remember now once we pull American soldiers out of Afghanistan we're going to create a vacuum that can only be filled.
By special operating forces -- clandestine forces under the control of the CIA.
And Dave is one of those few people that has military experience he has.
The wisdom to understand the region he's been involved in this war actively for ten years he understands how to apply.
Military force better than probably anyone else on the planet and and at this critical time as we begin to withdraw.
Are active participation in this war to have -- walk off the stage I think is a great hit to national.
Can't we just -- -- Kelley writes reporting a little clip.
Of a speech to -- abroad well the other element in this story gave to university students talking about the big guys -- attack.
What is being done to make sure.
That she does not have access to does not know certain information or intelligence that she could then use if she wanted to or someone who's close to her to do harm to the United States.
Well I also know Paula.
And she would do that.
Is is a friend she and I have consulted on various things over the over the years and she's a patriot.
I don't know anything about how she got access to classified material I seriously doubt if she got it from -- If she did but.
I wouldn't be I think they're far more things to worry about in the national security arena rather than how Paula got access to classified material right.
On Ben Ghazi general scales we're about to have congressional hearings.
We heard that there's still a chance that General Petraeus could be.
Testify it could be called to testify subpoenaed to testify does this story have any impact on us getting to the bottom of what happened.
At the consulate and -- -- Yeah I.
And I think eventually Dave will testify in some ways I think -- too soon.
I think what's important with the Petraeus -- money right now is to get their affairs in order.
This is as much about holly Petraeus as it is about -- I think he should be given some quiet time 222.
Reflected too.
I that connect with his family and we have time.
The day will come when -- will testify probably sooner rather than later but I don't think we should push him to do it by -- You you wrote a piece recently that called General Petraeus he said that he should be the model.
From which all future generals are cut.
You still feel that way right.
I absolutely do I think I college Petraeus model because he's that.
He is the personal embodiment of the soldier scholar the the the warrior intellectual the type of general that we needed if you choose not only.
Competent the tactical and operational level but he's a genius at the strategic level you don't get there without studying your profession without going to they.
Military school without teaching at our military system without reflecting on your profession over many years as well as mixing it.
-- operational assignments and I think the model of Dave Petraeus as we go forward.
Needs to be the model for our entire military in the future -- can he make a comeback.
Well gosh of course you care for his talents are far too valuable to the nation to let this interfere with -- long term.
And the nation needs Dave Petraeus because as I said to you at the beginning of this interview he's got -- special talents of being a scholar.
A warrior and intellect and a soldier that very very few that are -- did in our.
Military profession possess -- great insight as always for major general Bob scales general scales thanks so much.

As well as the phones announced yesterday, Sony Ericsson also announced a new series of accessories called Smart Extras, which will be used for the Xperia smartphones that will create "new functionality".The first device was a LiveDock multimedia station:
As you can see, it appears to be somewhere for your Xperia phone to lay on, and when connected, will launch the application of your choice. Also, Sony Ericsson add that if you have more than one LiveDock, then you can set each LiveDock to launch a different application depending on your situation.
However, a couple of flaws: this appears to be available in white only, and looking at the official accessory page for the LiveDock, it appears it is only compatible with the new range of Xperia devices (apologies X10, X10 Mini, X10 Mini Pro and X8 owners)
The second smart accessory to get announced was a headset called LiveSound:
The headset gives out excellent sound for a more enjoyable experience, along with a cable that doesnt tangle. It features a LiveKey button that is programmable to do what you want. Example you can set it up to launch a sports app by pressing the button, press it again and it could also show you information that is being used by ANT+ accessories, for example your heart rate etc . As for compatibility, thankfully it appears to be compatible with Vivaz, Vivaz Pro, Xperia X10, Aspen, Cedar, Spiro and of course the 2011 announced phones so far, and is available in a variety of colours. Again, no mention of the X10 Mini's or the X8.
I have also found a YouTube video featuring both accessories:
My personal thoughts:
Being a current X10 Mini Pro owner, I cannot say that I am rather excited about the new accessories. As you (probably) saw in the video, they use an app called LiveWare manager, which is coincidently used by the LiveView, so I cant really see why they are advertising the LiveDock for the new Xperia devices and leaving the poor Xperia X10 family owners out in the cold. Perhaps then they are now recoding the LiveWare manager to Android 2.3.3 (aka GingerBread)? Anyway, as I have the LiveWare Manager app installed on my X10 Mini Pro, there are options to launch apps depending on what accessory is connected (including a charger). Having said that though, on the LiveDock the X10 Mini Pro's USB slot is where the phone would be laying.

""It's killing me," he said gruffly. "Being without you. Missing you. I feel like my f*cking sanity depends on you, Eva, and you want me to be happy about that?""Gideon

Better than water!

Comments about DHC Water Base Moisture:
This is my favorite moisturizer when I get out of the shower at the gym. I especially use it when I want a light, refreshing pick-me-up during the day. It feels and moisturizes better than water, yet absorbs into the skin like water. Love it and will recommend it to others!

I was unsure but this is great.
By Cashew
from DC
This product looks odd, and it's in a glass bottle, which is kind of a pain, but it's great, great stuff. I have sensitive (from years of slapping too many anti-acne products on it!) combination skin that needs some kind of moisture or it gets flakey, but pretty much any cream gives me a breakout. This is the best I've tried in my life so far. I am finding I need to reapply more as the winter's coming in, so thinking of getting a heavier moisturiser to supplement this with for winter.
I would buy this product again and again
By RawFitness
from chicago,il
I love this product because it moisturizers my skin without the heavy greasy feel. I have tried several products and this is the only one for me that does not cause my skin to breakout. I am hooked on this product!

Perfect for sensitive skin
By Lady V
from Northeast Texas
I use this to moisturize my sensitive skin and to prep for makeup. Its lightness absorbs quickly and leaves no residue to interfere with makeup.
My favorite moisturizer!

All season moisturizer that is non greasy
By Mary, vintage girl
from Montgomery, AL
I use this product every morning after cleansing. It is very light-weight and non-greasy. Lack of applicator makes wasting somewhat inevitable.
Great for men (especially with beards)!
By Misterphotographer
from McLean, VA
I love it! Couldn't be a better moisturizer for a bearded face. I like that it's unscented.

Love It!!!!
By Lydia
from Sault ste Marie MI
I have tried numerous types of moisterizers for my oily acne prone skin, and this is by far the best! It doesn't make me break out, soaks in instantly, and lasts all day! Plus I have noticed that my face is less oily after I put on my makeup (I usually have to blot my face numerous times through out the day) I barely have to blot at all :)

Husband Loves This Moisturizer
By Steffd
from Chesterfield, VA
My husband is averse to using anything on his face, except washing it, but I got this light moisturizer for him and now he will not be without it. He uses it morning and night and his skin is not as dry as it was before. He would not use anything that was heavy or greasy because he does tend to break out at his advanced age. I just notice that his skin seems smoother and softer.

So, I learned that my skin is dehydrated NOT dry. There is a huge difference between the two and if you have skin that feels tight and dry but also gets oily and is prone to breakouts, you probably have dehydrated skin. Because of my breakout-prone/tight skin, when I applied a regular moisturizer, my skin gets really oily. I cannot wear a cream or lotion on my face. This serum acts as my moisturizer. The hyaluronic acid acts like a sponge to pull moisture in to your skin. I use it like this (morning and night): Cleanse with Moisture Balance Hydrating & Balancing Cleanser by Physicians Formula, tone with Skinceuticals LHA Solution, moisturize with DHC Water Base Moister. In the morning I will apply Skinceuticals Sheer Physical UV Defense SPF 50 over the Water Base Moister and then use DHC Velvet Skin Coat. In the evenings I sometimes apply Beauty Without Cruelty Vitamin C Vitality Serum with CoQ10 under the Water Base Moisture. And, once or twice a week (usually on the weekend), I will skip the Water Base Moisture and use DHC Renewing AHA Cream. I have to tell you that my skin has completely corrected itself to a more glowing and smooth state and my acne scars are fading, fading, fading. DHC does it again. I highly recommend this product.

We do not have Hotels.com photos for this hotel.

""Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 26, 2013
We stayed for one night to run the Hyannis Marathon. The hotel is basic, clean and inexpensive. Perfect for a one night stop over. The staff were lovely, super helpful and friendly, both when I had to call ahead with questions and during our stay. It was a bit tricky to control the heat. If we turned the heat on it got very hot very quickly and then we had to turn it off and let it get cool again before starting the process again :-) Overall, good value and we would stay again. Thank you so very much to the desk staff who allowed us to check out a little late because we were freezing cold and soaked through after the marathon - very much appreciated :-)
"GREAT FAMILY GETAWAY!"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 26, 2013
We all loved the outdoor heated pool!! Didn't even realize they had one until we got there. Very clean rooms and everything you need right at the Hotel. The kids loved the arcade and live animal show they had on Saturday night. Hotel was convienent to stay in for the Hyannis Half Marathon!
