Rain in Spain set to cause real pain… for parents: Flood alerts for Benidorm and Majorca as half-term weekend begins
- Forecasters predict up to 19 inches of rain could fall over the next two days
- The heaviest of downpours are due to fall over eastern Spain today and Friday
- Holidaymakers and locals are being told to brace themselves for flash floods
Jennifer Newton for MailOnline
Brits heading to Spain this weekend for the half-term holidays are being warned to brace themselves for a deluge of rain and flooding.
Weather warnings have been issued covering tourist hotspots in the east of the country including Benidorm, Alicante and Majorca.
And forecasters predict that some parts are expected to see up to 19 inches of rain over the next two days with the heaviest of downpours due to come tomorrow.
Forecasters are predicting that eastern Spain is going to be hit with a deluge of rain and flooding ahead of the half-term holidays. Pictured is flood damage in Majorca last week after flash floods
The rain and thunderstorms are being caused by a strong warm air conveyor system bringing a large amount of moisture to the region.
It comes just days after Hurricane Leslie battered Spain and Portugal, which also caused heavy rain and flash floods.
The Spanish meteorological agency has now issued both red extreme risk and orange important risk warnings for areas such as the Costa Brava, Valencia, Catalonia and the Balearics.
And police in the Alicante region are said to be stepping up patrols warning locals and tourists of the 'severe weather conditions'.
The Spanish meteorological agency has issued red and orange warnings for bad weather covering areas such as Benidorm, Alicante and Majorca
Grahame Madge, a spokesman for the Met Office, told MailOnline Travel: 'Eastern Spain is going to be experiencing some very, very heavy rainfall, and red warnings have been issued.
'This is partly because of a weather pattern affecting the region, which is a strong warm air conveyor system that is carrying a significant amount of moisture.
'These areas can expect to see rainfall totals in excess of 250mm rising to 500mm over the next few days.
The heavy rain will come just days after Hurricane Leslie battered Spain and Portugal
'This brings a significant risk of flash flooding and there is also a strong possibility of thunder and lightning.'
Spain-bound tourists might wish they'd booked a holiday elsewhere in Europe.
Destinations set for pleasant conditions across this weekend and into next include Paris, Nice, Rome, the Greek islands, Cyprus and the Croatian resort of Dubrovnik.
A week ago flash floods hit Majorca, killing an elderly British couple who drowned when their taxi was swept away.
At least eight other people died after eight inches of rain fell in four hours and a river burst its banks.
Locals swam for their lives as a 13ft wall of water raced through Sant Llorenc des Cardassar – where TV's Love Island is filmed – battering houses and sweeping cars away with people stuck inside.

Last month, the holiday resort of Benidorm was also hit with torrential downpours.
Holidaymakers were filmed floating down flooded streets on lilos, refusing to let the horrid weather ruin their break.
Some tourists were even spotted using an upside-down table as a makeshift surfboard.
The south of France was also battered with bad weather as was Porto in Portugal, which was hit with 125mph winds.

Glendale Heights – Adventist GlenOaks
Hospital invites the
community to celebrate the first anniversary of its "no waiting room" emergency
department. The celebration kicks off from 5 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 21, at
the hospital, 701 Winthrop Ave.
Enjoy free food, live entertainment, heart and
vascular screenings, games, blood pressure checks, back-to-school supplies and giveaways
for mom and baby. There will be raffle prizes that include a flat screen TV,
iPod, White Sox tickets and much more. Tours
of the facility with local emergency medical services providers and a view of Superior
Ambulance helicopters will be a part of the night's festivities.
GlenOaks Hospital's
ED has gone through much revamping over the past year, and on July 30, the
newest change was in the name. Hospital officials renamed the emergency
department The Shanahan Emergency and Trauma Center
in honor of Joseph E. F. Shanahan, Esq., M.D., medical director of Emergency
Services at the hospital. Shanahan has pledged a $500,000 gift to the GlenOaks
Hospital Foundation, the largest gift the foundation has ever received.
"Dr. Shanahan's gift demonstrates his commitment to
the hospital," said Brinsley Lewis, President and Chief Executive Officer at Adventist GlenOaks Hospital.
"He's willing to go above and beyond to show how much he believes in the
Emergency Department and the kind of care patients receive there."
The Shanahan Emergency and Trauma Center
has a unique concept – there is no waiting room. Upon arrival, patients are
escorted directly to a private treatment room where they are promptly treated. The staff comes to your private room to triage
and register you. Shanahan is credited with bringing the idea to fruition. The center
includes 19 private, spacious treatment suites that consist of primary exam
suites, cardiac exam suites, trauma and pediatric suites as well as
psychological exam rooms. The private suites each have televisions, telephones,
internet access, natural light and nurse call buttons. There are also separate
family lounges to give family members the ability to remain on-site while
giving the patient and health care professionals privacy when needed.
"No one ever expects to need a trip
to the emergency room," Shanahan said. "But this is a great time to see the
kinds of services Adventist
GlenOaks Hospital
has to offer. We want our community to
feel confident knowing that superior care is right here in their own backyard."

Tony jumped into the swim opposite the tree and fished two rods with his usual method of Sausage Oil criticals attached to a size 4 wide gape and small 1oz lead. He fished both rods tight to the snag tree locked up and we just knew that he'd have a good day. Dave set up to his right and I was in the next swim. With just open water in front of me I fished my home made popups with small bags of pellets and threw a few balls of groundbait in the area in the hope of interesting anything that might cruise by, this consisted of white crumb and crushed hemp.
Tony was first off the mark, and second, and third, and I think he got to 10 fish, commons and mirrors to low doubles, before Dave and I even had a bite. It was good to watch and each fish, remembering it was the end of December, was a real occasion. Eventually Tony gave in and allowed Dave to creep one of his rods onto the end of his spot providing Dave with a couple of nice fish, but still I remained fishless.
It was after lunchtime when I went for a stroll around to the fallen tree and spotted a section of bank the other side to where Tony was fishing that screamed carp. I revisited our swims and told the guys I was going stalking. I set up a 1.75tc barbel rod with a centrepin loaded with 5lb line and fixed a small waggler to the line culminating in a size 7 ESP Raptor. The float took just one BB shot so I was fishing very delicate. I arrived at the swim tiptoeing gently and placed myself well back from the waters edge. I plumbed the depth and found three feet just off the rod tip; I removed the plummet, attached a Sonubaits Sausage and Hemp hookable pellet and lowered it off the rod tip. A few minutes passed and the float started dancing around, there were fish down there but they were more than likely mopping up the small loose feed pellets I'd thrown in. Eventually, after about fifteen minutes the float slid away and I connected with my first of the day, it was a relief but I didn't have time to dwell on the occasion too much, I had one very angry carp attached to my line which was trying its best to reach the snags. With constant pressure I kept the fish clear, you just get so much more control with a certrepin in such conditions, although you do tend to feel every lunge amplified through the rod and up your arms so it can be pretty hairy stuff. The fish took a gulp on the surface before heading into the net and I called out to my friends that I'd actually managed to get off the mark, and with a remarkably pretty fish too, but after the commotion they were already on their way. A linear mirror of low double figures, weight was immaterial; a winter carp of this stature was enough to keep me happy all year, well, what was left of it anyway.
After the pictures were taken I fished on for another hour or so and landed two small commons and a gold fish, yes, it was white with a red head, very odd but with the wind increasing and the rain starting to fall it certainly brightened up an otherwise chilly afternoon. At four pm we decided to call it a day. A superb days winter fishing, hats off to Tony for landing 16 carp and as I wished my friends a Happy New Year I felt for home, Pheasant stew and a nice hot bath.

Home remedies for piles
There is no doubt at all that creams and lotions can be very soothing and often give some welcome relief-particularly if you are using one which includes a local anesthetic. Some contain components which help the inflamed blood vessels in order to dilate, and this can help the symptoms too. Logic says that we need to deal with the origin of the discomfort, and that is exactly why we put treatments directly onto the piles.

- Piles are swollen blood vessels under the tissue or skin in the rectum and anus.
- Many people will have the problem but because they have no symptoms, such as pain or bleeding they will live with them.
- Symptoms are generally felt when passing a bowel movement because the contents of the bowel irritate the tender piles.
- There are various causes of piles, together with the main one being pressure within the anal area.
This can be Due to Constipation, Hard Work, Diarrhea, Childbirth and Lack of Exercise
When you have had piles for some time, you don't me to tell you how they can be notoriously difficult to eradicate and because of this, many sufferers resign themselves to living with this kind of embarrassing and downright painful condition long-term, mopping up the symptoms where possible with expensive products and potions.

London's calling and this time it's rolled out the red carpet. From dedicated champagne rooms to suites featuring private saunas and grand pianos, when it comes to luxury no city in the world combines traditional glamour with modern opulence quite like London.
Based on our data for the average hotel prices in London, we've found that Westminster is the most luxurious neighbourhood to stay in. So, as part of our London Neighbourhoods project, we've picked our top five Westminster-based hotels that each offer a unique experience that's sure to be a cut above the rest…
Check out our luxury guide to Westminster here.
The Savoy
The Savoy is located on the north bank of the River Thames, just a stone's throw away from Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square, Covent Garden and Mayfair. In short, it's near the best that London has to offer. A major highlight of the Savoy is the American Bar, London's oldest surviving cocktail bar which takes its name from when cocktails were still considered to be an American fashion.
Fine dining also takes centre stage with Kaspar's Seafood Bar and Grill, which offers an informal dining experience in a decadent art-deco setting, whilst Gordon Ramsay's Savoy Grill presents a British grill menu with a French touch.
A peek inside the Royal Suite…
A procession of elegant stately rooms, the Royal Suite has recently been refurbished so that the Edwardian interior is perfectly blended with state-of-the-art amenities. Guests enter through a marble-floored foyer that opens out onto the study, living room and spacious dining room. The master bedroom features a spacious walk-in dressing room and an en-suite bathroom with a deep pool Jacuzzi and invigorating steam shower.
One of Mayfair's finest hotels, Connaught is a world apart from top to bottom. The attention to detail, neutral tones and Victorian architecture make it a uniquely luxurious place to stay.
Whilst you're there be sure to take a dip in the Aman Spa pool, sip on champagne in the exclusive Champagne Bar or taste one of the 6000 wines stored in the cool limestone cellar beneath the kitchens.
A peek inside the Connaught Suite…
Designed by Guy Oliver, the interiors evoke a home away from home atmosphere, with plush furnishings in rich fabrics, plenty of open space and Victorian stone fireplaces garnished with fresh flowers. Enjoy a bottle of chilled Laurent Perrier on arrival whilst taking in the views from the window seats overlooking Mayfair.
Brown's Hotel
One of London's most well-established Mayfair hotels, Brown's has made its mark on history in several ways. The hotel considers itself to be one of the originators of Afternoon Tea and Queen Victoria regularly came to call. Additionally, Alexander Graham, the inventor of the telephone, made the first ever telephone call from the hotel and Rudyard Kipling wrote the Jungle Book here.
Brown's is probably one of the more traditional hotels in London, from the tinkling piano playing in their tea rooms to the oak panelled entrance hall and deep stone fireplaces. The modern restaurant serves British cuisine, created by English chef, Mark Hix.
A peek inside the Kipling Suite…
Named after the illustrious author Rudyard Kipling, this is a spacious and light-filled suite with pale yellows accented by animal sketches and a hint of the Orient. Complimentary to the suite are two half hour spa treatments, airport transfer, unpacking and packing service, in-house movies and the option to have breakfast in bed.
The Berkeley
The Berkeley is at the tail end of a multimillion architectural revamp that sees the hotel's façade glide effortlessly into the 21st century. Once inside, you can enjoy the Berkeley's laid-back atmosphere and luxurious modern interiors designed for comfort and relaxation.
One of the best features of the Berkeley is the gorgeous rooftop pool with a retractable roof, so on sunny days you can top up your tan whilst lazing by the water. The perfect way to escape the city simply by taking the lift to the seventh floor.
A peek inside the Wellington Suite…
One of our favourite features of this suite is the expansive outdoor roof terrace that looks over the red brick mansions of Knightsbridge. The roof terrace also features a covered conservatory housing an impressive dining table: the perfect space for entertaining your guests. The suite also includes its own sauna, open fireplaces and complimentary airport transfer.
Just off Bond Street, Claridge's is centrally located in Mayfair and is one of London's most famous luxury hotels. The art-deco interiors would put Gatsby to shame and the Afternoon Tea is so good it has won multiple awards. The Fumoir is an alcove of glamour off the main bar, inspired by the 1930s, it's not to be missed for a spot of relaxation and the opportunity to drink in the atmosphere.
When it comes to dining at Claridge's, choose between Fera, Claridge's Michelin starred restaurant serving a modern take on British cuisine, and Aulis, a unique development kitchen for chefs to explore their creative side and experiment with new techniques. The six-seat dining room gives guests an intimate look into the innovation process behind each delicious dish.
A peek inside the Grand Piano Suite…
Designed by legendry New York fashion designer Diane Von Furstenburg, the Grand Piano suite combines the glamour of Claridge's with a pop of colour, decadent prints and sumptuous fabrics. And of course there is a beautiful grand piano in the living room, which combined with the marble stone fireplace, black-leather topped bar and full personal butler service, makes this suite, ideal for entertaining guests.

This cabinet hinge type has knuckles that are machined to close tolerances. Extruded hinges are thicker and stronger than rolled-barrel hinges and are generally considered to be a step above even the finest rolled-barrel hinge.
Forged hinges are made by squeezing metal billets in presses that make the metal flow like toothpaste. These hinges can have the detailing of cast hinges while being much more precise and stronger.
Hand forged hinges, like our rat tail hinges, are made by our blacksmiths the old fashioned way; with a hammer, an anvil, and a coal forge. Each piece is handmade one at a time by heating the iron and shaping the pieces with a series of hammers, tangs, and anvils. Each is a work of art and no two pieces are exactly alike. The finish is an authentic 18th-century linseed oil finish with a heat blackened color.

"Dr. Marc Gafni's integral unique self-teaching is seminal. The Unique Self work is magnificent, and it belongs among the 'great books.' It offers what may arguably be one of the most significant contemporary evolutions of enlightenment teaching. Unique Self brings together East and West in a higher integral embrace of stunning implications. Unique Self is a pivotal step toward an authentic Enlightenment." - Ken Wilber, Philosopher, Thought Leader, Author of A Brief History of Everything
(Blurb for Dr. Marc Gafni's book Your Unique Self)
We live in a world of outrageous pain and the ONLY response is Outrageous Love.
We need a bold vision of the deepest and most Outrageous LOVE that will prompt us to "be and become" the greatest possible version of ourselves. Otherwise there is no bright future.
The first step to alleviate the outrageous pain and all unnecessary suffering would be to participate in the Evolution of Love.
The key to our joy and personal fulfillment is to engage erotically in All Areas of our lives….
Are disempowering frameworks around Eros and Sex preventing you from creating the desired outcomes you want in your life?
Frameworks are a set of "beliefs, understandings or knowings" within which we interpret reality. Unfortunately, we are confused by what Eros is or are misinformed about its purpose and relationship to sexuality.
Therefore, shame gets in between our desires and our ability to fulfill them. When it comes to actually playing bigger in our lives or building intimacy in relationship, we often get stuck or feel like we don't have enough time or energy to make a big enough difference. Does that sound familiar?
You hold back from expressing yourself fully in fear of conflict or rejection
You keep yourself busy to avoid having uncomfortable conversations
Maybe it feels too vulnerable and scary to allow yourself to give or receive more Love because you've been hurt in the past.
Perhaps you're overwhelmed and exhausted by the demands of modernity and by the impending sense of doom our planet faces.
Maybe you're frustrated because you want to feel fully self expressed, received and celebrated in your personal relationships but you don't know how.
Maybe you're confused about how to take the next step or it feels too hard and overwhelming.
Perhaps there never seems to be enough time to commit to doing the practices it takes to transform.
It's frustrating to feel stuck despite the fact that you may have 'done the work' and transformation doesn't seem to be happening fast enough.
For example, you may . . .
- Feel stuck even though you've spent lots of time and money doing "the work".
- Experience things as hard and serious yet you want to feel an unlimited joy and ecstasy fueling your daily habits.
- Get annoyed with yourself because you feel like you're not making a big enough difference.
- Feel unfulfilled in your personal relationships yet desire deeper connection and sustained intimacy.
- Feel like your life is mundane and ordinary - you want your life to feel epic and extraordinary.
- Want to heal past hurts but it feels too painful.
- You want to be fearless in your life and experience more passion in your relationships but it feels too overwhelming because you're afraid it might be too much.
- You feel stuck in your personal development and don't know how to go to the next level in a powerful way.
- Get overwhelmed by the demands of your everyday life.
- Be frustrated because you're someone who wants to play BIG but you just don't know how.
- Feel burdened by a quiet sense of desperation that your life is passing you by.
- Find yourself experiencing a sense of loss or emptiness because you don't know what you are really supposed to be doing with your life.
- Frustrated because you don't know how to match your gifts with the world needs.
Luckily, there is a better way…
Thought leader, social innovator, and wisdom teacher Dr. Marc Gafni, is the initiating visionary, together with Integral Philosopher Ken Wilber and others, of the Center for Integral Wisdom, an activist think tank dedicated to evolving and articulating a shared global framework of meaning and responsibility.
Known as the leading theorist and teacher of Unique Self Enlightenment and Evolutionary Love, Marc created a complete system of the most powerful spiritual tools, practices, teachings and techniques that contains all of the wisdom, power, intelligence, strategy, and capacity you'll need to live a successful, meaningful, and fulfilling life.
"Marc Gafni is a brilliant teacher and heart master with a rare capacity for empathy and a gift for creating community. He offers a perspective on personal transformation that integrates insights of traditional and postmodern wisdom. This course will give you tools to change your understanding not only of your own path, but also of what it means to live a life of inner contemplation and transformative service in the world." — Sally Kempton, Author of Meditation for the Love of It

Get Clear About These 4 Things And Thrive
#1 Eros is NOT Sex
Eros is the very movement at the core of reality that moves us towards higher and higher levels of mutuality, recognition, union and embrace. Reality IS Eros. Unfortunately, Eros has been exiled into the sexual. Our goal is to liberate Eros from its exile so that we awaken as Evolutionary Unique Selves and Love our way to Enlightenment. We do that by living erotically in all of the non-sexual dimensions of our lives.
#2 The Sexual Models Eros
The truth is that the sexual MODELS this erotic force and CAN teach us how to LOVE the moment open. Evolution is constantly moving from the unconscious to the conscious. It is always moving and thrusting forward, opening reality to go the next step.
When you understand the inherent relationship that Sex has with Eros, it becomes a place of learning and holds the wisdom of everything that you could possibly want to know. It can be the platform to put into practice a higher form of consciousness and love, one that creates and engages a whole new reality for ourselves and our loved ones.
#3 Pleasure Comes from Your Creative Transformation
Having a healthy appetite for pleasure isn't a barrier to your spiritual growth. It's an essential component to opening you up to higher levels of consciousness and power.
Increasing your pleasure threshold up-levels your sense of self-value, gives you access to a deep connection to All-That-Is and moves you beyond separation to a shared and mutual enlightened experience.
#4 Love is a Perception, Not Just an Emotion
Love at its core is not an emotion — it's a Unique Self perception! It's a shift from the narrow perception of your separate ego self, into having the eyes to see that you are Love in action.
Ordinary love is an emotion. Outrageous Love is Source itself.
When Outrageous Love begins to awaken in the field, it becomes possible to Love your Way to Enlightenment. When you are able to Love your way to Enlightenment and awaken your sexual energy to its highest form, you actually re-awaken the Divine Force that Erotically engages reality, and changes and shifts the course of destiny itself.
7 Amazing Benefits You'll Enjoy By Participating in God is Eros
A deeper sense of self-awareness and a connection to your unique purpose
You were born with a unique set of strengths and gifts that are perfect for a specific purpose or unique need in the world. When you awaken to your Unique Self, you realize that you are a unique incarnation of the love-intelligence and love-beauty that initiated and animates the whole cosmos. Because of that you have a unique personal obligation to commit Outrageous Acts of Love that are utterly needed by all that is and that are yours and ONLY yours to perform. Fulfilling this obligation is the greatest joy of your life and leaves no space for feeling lost, stuck or unfulfilled.
Transform reality and create a society in which every human being is honored, received and loved
In giving your unique gifts, responding to a unique need in the world, and committing the Outrageous Acts of Love that are yours and ONLY yours to perform, you participate in the evolution of consciousness and love on this planet. You begin to transform the culture around you and co-create a world that works for everyone. Doing that simultaneously leaves you totally fulfilled with profound pleasure and overflowing joy.
Discover how the sexual models Eros and is the access point for transformation
Evolution is constantly moving from the unconscious to the conscious. It is always moving and thrusting forward, opening reality to go the next step. The sexual models this erotic force and can teach us how to LOVE the moment open even in the face of discomfort.
Develop a fearless sense of self expression
Our world faces sobering challenges that can ONLY BE responded to by a genuine evolution of consciousness. The only way to transform reality and create a society in which every human being is honored, received and loved is to realize that it took 13.7 billion years of evolution to create the unique expression of Your Unique Self and that you are not merely a product of your mother and father or your genes or upbringing. This creates freedom and opens you up to a wealth of possibilities and fearless creative expression.
Overcome loneliness
When we avoid emptiness and try to cover it up, we cut ourselves off from experiencing more pleasure, joy and aliveness in our lives. We get comfortable with the mundane and prevent ourselves from growing into more powerful versions of our greatness. The more pleasure you allow in all areas of your life — the more connected you'll be to the people around you.
Activate the highest potential of your life
Want to start living your life in a bigger context? It turns out that if you cultivate higher levels of awareness around Love you'll be able to play a larger game as a catalytic evolutionary agent. Because Love as a perception is to choose again and again to be open-hearted not matter what challenges we might face. Despite all the pain that you have known — all the mistakes that may burden you with guilt or shame along with any sadness or regret that you may have — the more you practice loving the moment open, the less your wounds matter.
Free-flowing inspiration and creativity that help you solve any challenge and shine in all that you do
Your Unique Self is the medium and essence which forms and chooses the Outrageous Acts of Love that are yours and only yours to commit. When you live from Your Unique Self, you recognize that you are God's verb. God is Creative. Consciousness is Creative. Creativity is the essential manifest quality of the Divine. Therefore, just as God is creative, so you be creative. Awakening this realization gives you access to a level of unparalleled creativity and power to play full on the court of your life.
Start experiencing sexuality and reality at large in a bigger, better, more whole way!
Each week you will receive a series of audio lessons, videos, exercises, and downloadable handouts. That main course is supplemented by three module-specific quizzes & one final exam, as well as much optional material.
Unlike other existing courses on Eros, this training was designed to give you an access point for all forms of success — starting with upleveling your consciousness around your sexuality.
It was specifically created to HELP you move past limiting beliefs around sexuality so that you can use it as the leverage that seeds your next level of development.

That his work is birthing new forms of evolutionary spirituality is evidenced in his emergent articulations of World Spirituality and Unique Self. Unique Self, a term coined and a concept and realization developed by Marc over the last fifteen years, represents a truly world-centric, planet-centric and kosmocentric evolutionary mysticism. It changes the way we think about enlightenment by integrating the enlightenment traditions of the premodern East and modern West in a higher integral embrace." — Sean Esbjörn-Hargens, Founder of The Integral Institute

How safe is the assumption that, 10 years from now, it will take a certain amount of time (say, ~16s) to mine a block?
If we cannot safely assume future block solving times, how else can we measure time, given that reading the timestamp of a single block isn't very reliable? (Maybe average several blocks' timestamps?)

If you know you want to plan the best possible Disney World vacation but you're not sure where to start, or if you're dreading the hours of research required, this workbook is the perfect fit for you. Small enough to manage, but comprehensive enough to plan the best vacation possible, it's the perfect companion for someone just starting out on their Disney World journey.
Not sure where to start while planning your Disney World vacation? Worried you won't make the most of your time at the most magical place on earth?
When planning a trip to Disneyworld, the stakes are high. There are endless guides, videos, podcasts, articles, and more around the web. Worse yet, much of the information out there is out of date or flatly wrong.
When planning my extended family's first big trip to Disney World (for sixteen people!) I devoured all of the information I could find in an effort to maximize the return on fun that we'd get from collectively spending over $25,000 on our vacation. I started putting all of that info into emails to my family to help them have the best vacation possible. Pretty soon, I was providing that same guidance, tips, and travel hacks to my friends.
After that trip, I thought "why not put all of this information in one place? Why not share this information with everybody?"
Double Your WDW is all of the planning information that you need to plan the best trip that you can for your family in one easy to digest step-by-step guide.
I love planning, I love Disney World, and I love helping other people have a magical Disney World vacation because the thing that I hate to see is somebody who is overwhelmed and bogged down by planning their trip to the point that you just can't have a fun vacation.
I'll walk you through planning your vacation from start-to-finish step-by-step so that you too can get the most of your budget. (Step 1 is deciding on a budget... any budget.) Disney World is supposed to be fun and magical and I want to help you have that fantastic vacation that you and your children are dreaming about. In other words: I got you, babe.
Table of Contents
How do I get it?
It's an immediate digital download. No waiting! There is no product that will be shipped to you; you will receive a link to a digital download. If you are not satisfied for any reason, we'll work with you to make sure you get what you need, even if that means a full refund.
What's your refund policy?
If you feel the book is unsatisfactory (and you can tell us how so we can improve it) we're happy to give you a 100% refund within 14 days of purchase.
So far its helping us plan for our trip!
Fantastic resource, really well thought out and explained in a way that even a Disney World novice can understand. A must-have if you're planning a vacation there anytime soon.
Fantastic book! Julie saved me hours and hours of research, I didn't even know where to start. If you are planning a Disney World vacation this guide is a "must read". Although it's short it has a ton of valuable information! Highly recommended!
Coordinating any trip with my family is a huge weight on my shoulders. Disney is especially tricky and awful for navigating with budget. Seriously, Julie's advice is up to date and saved me so much time and money for my trip.
My parents weren't quite well off enough to take us to WDW when my brother and I were really young, but they turned it into a family trip when I was older (they "felt guilty" for not taking us earlier). Though the trip was a lot of fun, unfortunately I was also old enough so that most of what I remember was how expensive it was! As a result, I've sort of avoided the subject until now due to fear of sticker shock. After reading Julie's guide, I at least feel like I'm better prepared for taking my family to WDW. She does a great job of outlining what will be involved, and does a lot of the legwork that I tend to avoid under the principle of "it doesn't exist if I'm too scared to go looking for it" :) Particularly on the cost savings side, those tips can be hard to find in a sea of conflicting info, and make the small price of the guide more than worth it. If you're like me and don't love planning trips well in advance (life gets busy, and I can often barely keep up with this week let alone next year), you'll get a ton of help from this. Thanks Julie!

Don't get impatient over the slow path to legal marijuana
The ballot-box win legalizing marijuana puts the state on a long glide path toward full availability, not the instant access that many voters think. The public may be impatient, but there's good sense behind the slow rollout.
California's history with cannabis isn't simple. It was approved for medical use 20 years ago, but it took until last year for Sacramento to adopt standards in that area. In the meantime, millions used flimsy excuses to obtain medical cards to qualify for pot produced with few standards or environmental rules. It's been a free and easy mess on city streets and back-country hillsides for too long.
This confusion is why Proposition 64 is welcome, even if it will take a year to take hold. Once the vote is certified, pot users can carry an ounce and grow six plants indoors or in a contained area. But buying it at a dispensary, opening an outlet and verifying standards and tax methods all need to be worked out over the next year. With a possible $1 billion in tax revenue, the state has every reason to follow through on its end.
This drawn-out schedule is one of the benefits of the process. The nuts and bolts of Prop. 64 were the result of a 24-person panel commissioned by Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, the chief apostle of the legalization path, who argued against erasing all the rules overnight.
Prop. 64 also comes with other provisions giving cities more controls that could inhibit or advance access. San Francisco, for example, is pushing hard to speed up licensing at the urging of Mayor Ed Lee. An advisory panel is talking up the city's potential as a research and testing hub enabled by its tech industry.
Compare that with Oakland, tangled up with its own plan to make the city an investor and give an advantage to operators with drug records.
Elsewhere, some 80 percent of the state's cities and counties are banning forms of cannabis sales, an indication that voters may be tolerant of legal weed but don't want it peddled near them.
President-elect Trump's role is a question. As a candidate he fell in line with the Obama administration's willingness to let states decide. But marijuana remains classified as a dangerous drug, casting a shadow over banking and legal operations.
This cloud of illegality needs to be removed. While California works carefully on rolling out rules on legalized weed, Washington needs to do its part. The legal path isn't complete yet.
