Progress : 40 of 50 Laps Completed!
Help me to help others! I have Osteogenesis Imperfecta and I will be swimming to help others! Thanks for your support, whether it be support in the form of encouragement, monetarily, or silent prayers! We must lift each other up each and every day ... I have an Unbreakable Spirit!!
Peace Love and Light, Amy
I have pledged to swim (at least, if not more) 50 laps as a part of the OI Foundation's 50,000 Laps - One Unbreakable Spirit Challenge and I need your support!
50,000 people in the United States are affected by osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a rare genetic disease that makes bones fragile and easily broken. A person living with OI may experience hundreds of painful fractures over a lifetime. Infants with OI are often born with multiple broken bones. In severe cases of OI, a cough can break an adult's rib. Each person with OI is unique, with different fracture rates, a varied range of related health issues and his or her own path through life. Yet there is one thing every person living with OI has in common… an Unbreakable Spirit®!
Please help us to provide answers to families, fund research, and maintain a network of support groups for families dealing with the daily realities of OI by making a gift and even joining us for this fun event.
You can improve lives! To support the important work of the OI Foundation, simply click on the Donate Now button on this page.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart - I truly appreciate your time, consideration and generosity! Love, Amy

The village church began as a monastery. It was later donated to Leyre. The charitable hospitals served pilgrims. There is a statue of St James in the church. No shop or restaurant. The bar next to the refuge will prepare meals if you order in advance. The next welcoming bar (with tapas) is in Urdaniz, 2km north on the C135.
Refuge: Modern new refuge for 30 persons, a thoughtful initiative by the genial and hospitable mayor (alcalde) Don Santiago Zubiri Elizalde. He is well liked by pilgrims, a most helpful person. Situated in the town hall, the refuge has a kitchen and hot and cold showers. Canned and fresh foods available. After normal hours, the key can be got from the mayor in the house opposite. Camping space available.
To enter village turn right, cross bridge and then turn left at church. Turn left onto road and proceed to the hamlet of Aquerreta. There is a fountain 1km away. Keep straight on down green lane to house with old weapons on its door. This house was probably built in 1747. Go downhill, cross minor tarred road at slightly staggered junction and keep straight on lane. The track takes you in and out of woods, parallel all the time with the main road below you to the right. Path descends steeply down steps. Continue close to and parallel with river, passing weir on right. Shortly after, you get to a modern bridge over the Agra at Zuriain.

52 Fridays – Week 28
Posted on July 13, 2012
Up High! My family just spent a week in the mountains of NC and we were up high hiking every day. I have to confess I did not take my camera on most hikes – just too heavy. Every morning I was usually the first to rise and would go and sit on the back porch with my cup of java and this was the view. Simply beautiful On this morning, the sun was just beginning to light the sky and the moon was still "up high"! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the mountains, especially the little town of Blowing Rock.
Now head over and check out Liza Hall's amazing up high shot.

This jalapeno beer queso recipe is done in less than 30 minutes and is delicious. It is the perfect football game time snack!
Hello, all! It's Chelsey from Budget Girl again!
It's FINALLY August! You know what that means? Fall is almost here! Which means football is almost here!
And what's the best part about football? That's right–snacks and beer.
The quintessential football snack is chips and dip. While normal, store-bought is usually just fine, I thought I'd try something new.
For my slow cooker chicken nacho taquitos, I experimented with a bunch of different cheese dips. One was Pace's beer queso, which was delicious. It had the slightest hint of beer, which mixed with the cheese really well.
I thought I would attempt to replicate it.
Jalapeno Beer Queso Recipe
The two most important things about this recipe are to not add too much beer (trust me, did it) and to add the cheese as slowly as possible. If you add it too quickly, the queso will come out grainy. It will still taste fine, but cheese sauce is best when it's smooth.
As for adding too much beer…I thought a whole bottle would be great. It wasn't. The 6 oz indicated in the recipe is quite enough. You want a subtle beer flavor and adding a while beer just makes it overwhelming.
Not a beer fan? Use unsweetened evaporated milk instead.
For the beer, I just used a Yuengling. No need to get fancy with it. It's best if you use a lager that doesn't taste too hoppy.
As for the cheese, you can honestly use whatever you want. I went with some white cheeses. I used jalapeno cheese and Monterrey jack. We wanted the queso to be fairly spicy, so I did 3 parts jalapeno, 1 part Monterrey. For a less spicy queso that still has a kick, reverse those. 🙂
The resulting dip was delicious and thick. Of course, anything with cheese and Rotel is generally pretty good in my book. 😛
To add a fun flare, serve your snacks on this no sew football field table runner!
To be honest, I don't pay a lot of attention to football (I'm more of a hockey girl). But there is nothing like hearing a game come on the TV in the middle of October. It doesn't feel like autumn without it.
Are you excited for football season? What's your favorite game time snack?
Jalapeno Beer Queso Recipe
- 3 tbsps unsalted butter
- 2 tbsps flour
- 6 oz lager
- 2 cups of cheese (I used jalapeno and Monterrey jack)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 can of Rotel, undrained
- Pour the beer into a glass and stir it to remove any carbonation.
- Add butter to a medium pot and melt it over medium heat. Whisk in the flour.
- Slowly add the beer and stir to combine. Cook until it is thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cheese SLOWLY and stir until it's melted.
- Stir in the Rotel.
- Remove from heat and serve with chips.

If Yahoo!
Display online advertising is an area where Yahoo! has enjoyed an advantage over rival Google
Display advertising, which consists of banners and rich media ads, is a fragmented sector. Several companies, including ValueClick
AMP -- short for Advertising Management Platform -- will get a good trial run in the third quarter, when the new system is incorporated through the newspaper partners that have teamed up with Yahoo! to beef up local advertising efforts, according to this morning's Wall Street Journal.
A lot is riding on the AMP rollout, especially after the lukewarm reception to its Panama upgrade on the paid-search side. Panama was supposed to transform Yahoo!'s text-ad platform into a more Googlesque product.
Panama hasn't been a disaster, but it could have been better, given Yahoo!'s sluggish online advertising growth. The most telling statistic in the company's most recent quarterly report is that affiliate revenue -- the money that Yahoo! makes by pushing its ad inventory through third-party partners -- fell by 13% over the previous year's final quarter. That's a sharp contrast to the growth that Big G is seeing in its own Google AdSense program.
Then again, display advertising is an area in which Yahoo! takes pride in excelling. The consortium of hundreds of newspapers that have rallied around Yahoo!, as opposed to Google or rival employment-listings publisher Monster Worldwide
Now we'll have to wait and see whether the market wants an encore or earplugs.

Sara Lee Corp. says it is splitting into two public companies, one focused on retail and foodservice, and the other on drinks and baked goods.
The retail and foodservice unit will retain the Sara Lee name and will include that brand as well as Jimmy Dean, Ball Park, Hillshire Farm and others.
The other unit has yet to be named. Sara Lee will pay a special dividend of $3 in 2012 before the spinoff is completed.
The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday the split off was likely after takeover offers fell short of expectations.
Sara Lee, in Downers Grove, Ill., says the split is the next logical step after selling its international household and body care business and agreeing to sell its North American fresh bakery business.

With the eastward expansion of Yichang, Wujianggang District will be the center of the new modern city and the construction of education facilities is pressing. Twenty three schools will be enlarged and relocated during the period of "Thirteenth Five-year Plan" in the District, according to relative parties on April 19th.
As the main arena of Yichang's construction as a modern megacity, the economic and social development in Wujiagang District has been at an amazing speed with its increasingly perfect urban function. By 2020, Wujiagang District will have approximately 16,800 more primary- school-age students and 8,400 secondary-school-age students, according to the gathering condition of population in the new district and the related estimate standards of the State, Hubei province and Yichang city. These newly increased students mainly locate in Zhongnan Road area, Dongyan Road area, Heyi Road area, WuLin Road Baisha area, Dongzhan area, Huayan area and so on. However, the constructions of primary and middle schools still lag within the scope of the new district and the school facilities are almost in a blank state, making it unavailable for children to come to the nearest school. The rapid economic development and the booming of population requires matched educational facilties and standards, thus the new construction, reconstruction and extended construction of a series of schools is an urgency.
According to the school construction project in "Thirteenth Five-year Plan", ten primary schools and five middle schools will be newly constructed——Dongyanlu Primary School, Yuejiachong Primary School, Dongzhanlu Primary School, Chengdong Primary School, Jvcheng Primary School, Linjiangping Primary School, Heyi Primary School, Gonglian Primary School, Lianhe Primary School and Hongwei Primary School, Lianhe Middle School, Huoguang Middle School, Hongwei Middle School, Baisha Middle School and Yinhulu Middle School. Two primary schools will be relocated and constructed—— Huayan Primary School and Wujiagang Primary School. Two primary schools will be expanded——Lijiahu Primary School and Yangchalu Primary School. Four primary schools will be reconstructed and expanded——Wujianggangqu Experimental Primary School, Longzhonglu Primary School, Dagongqiao Primary School and Wanshouqiao Primary School.

RANCHO CUCAMONGA � A Hesperia man arrested for his connection to a Rancho Cucamonga fatal shooting was sentenced to one year in jail Thursday.
Keaton Tomas McGuire, 25, accepted the prosecution's offer and pleaded guilty to possessing an assault weapon. Rancho Cucamonga Judge Michael Sachs sentenced him immediately to three years of probation, which includes the jail term.
The defendant was initially charged with being an accessory and manufacturing or transportation of assault weapon.
McGuire was pulled over and arrested in December for being an accessory to the shooting death of 25-year-old William Merrill. Anthony Michael Wagner of Montclair is accused of killing Merrill in Rancho Cucamonga in October. Wagner was arrested at an Apple Valley home.
Authorities believe McGuire and Wagner's girlfriend assisted Wagner by harboring him after the alleged crime. A motive for the shooting is unclear.

As I sit here at 2:54am, the ideas of improving my house are in full swing. It's been a while since I've felt any sort of creative genious, and I'll admit I was actually attempting to clean the kitchen. I've found it's more fun to sit and day dream (day? or night?) about what I can do to make my not so fabulous house more fabulous.
My house is by no means big, but it's plenty of space for the two of us and our two small dogs. Honestly, the house very well could be big enough for four, if the additional two were children. We wont be growing out of our house any time soon. To say we'd ever grow out of our house would just be silly. My parents raised three children in a 1000 square foot house and even though I shared a room with my sister, our house was comfortable and we didn't have any silly unused space.
Our house was built in the 1970's as a two bedroom, one bathroom house with a one car garage and an unfinished daylight basement boasting about 800 square feet of living space. Prior to my husband purchasing the house 12 years ago, the previous owners finished the basement turning it in to an additional bedroom, laundry room and half bathroom. This gives us roughly 1200 square feet of living space now.
We currently only inhabit 800 square feet of our available living space. We use our upstairs bedroom and bathroom, and the second bedroom is a guest room (and my current closet). Our main floor has a small living and dining room that wrap in to a small kitchen with a bar. There is a door in the living room to the downstairs bedroom (the door opens, and there's the bedroom). Off the bedroom are the laundry room and half bathroom. Right now the entire downstairs is being used as storage with tons of furniture and boxes everywhere.
In June 2008 we started remodeling the house. Nothing had been updated since he had moved in with the exception of a little paint. We've made amazing progress and our house is quite cozy compared to it's prior state but we still have a long way to go. Our space isn't personal by any means. We have new paint, new wood floors, new furniture and that's about it. We don't really have pictures gracing the walls, we haven't finished the trim and we have horrible popcorn ceilings that need scraping, texturing and painting. My kitchen cabinets need to be refinished and need new doors, and my dining room needs a lot of help. I still have a huge hole in the wall I hide with a lamp from when we tore out the baseboard heaters.
I've been browsing blogs like crazy lately, and thanks to Mrs. Southern Belle my creative gears began turning again. She's got a great house, and she's very creative when it comes to decorating. My first house had bead board in the entry way and the living room. I absolutely loved it. I've been wanting to add bead board to our dining room, but I've been nervous because I've never done it on my own and I didn't have a full plan. Mrs. Southern Belle's DIY Pottery Barn chalk board was exactly what I needed.
After seeing this, my vision was complete. My entire project includes the dining room and kitchen. I'm happy to say it will be relatively inexpensive, but very time consuming. But I'm already excited about it.
The kitchen and dining room are one space. I split them by painting them two different colors. I've chosen to paint them the same creamy taupe color and combine the spaces again. My kitchen cabinets are currently black. I thought this was going to be amazing, but I was wrong. I've decided I'm going to repaint the cabinets to a soft white and purchase new doors, drawer fronts and hardware. We really like the shaker and bead board looks, and my first house had bead board cabinets and I loved them.
I have bar seating in the dining room that is hosted by my kitchen cabinets. The blank side of the cabinets facing the dining room will be covered with bead board. The bead board will continue on the wall throughout the entire dining room (like in the picture above) and be painted to match the kitchen cabinets. I've also been wanting a buffet in my dining room for extra storage. It's the biggest thing lacking in our kitchen, and it would be great to have a large piece that I could store some of my nicer appliances and serving dishes in. We plan to build one that covers one entire wall with plenty of shelving. It would be built he height of the bead board, and the back would be left open so that the bead board would be seen through. Imagine the picture above with a buffet lining the bottom half of the wall.
We'd finish trimming out the space, as that's one item we have and haven't finished in the house yet. I'd like to get a bamboo shade for the kitchen window, and I'll move my linen curtains from my living room window to my slider window in the dining room. I'll be sure to document my progress, and of course will post before, progress and after photos. The vision in my head is spectacular, and I can't wait to get working on it.

The controversial Ara Pacis museum by American architect Richard Meier has been targeted by vandals who splattered one side of the building with red and green paint and deposited a toilet underneath.
The vandals have not yet been identified and no one has claimed responsibility, leaving authorities to guess that the act is either in protest against the structure itself or against Republic Day on 2 June.
Mayor Gianni Alemanno, an outspoken critic of the museum, has condemned the attack, saying that

Often when people begin a spiritual path, they want change to happen instantly. If it doesn't, they get frustrated and wonder what's holding them back. But change doesn't happen because you've taken a class, have knowledge or insight.
Change is a battle.
Developing greater awareness is hard work. At every moment we have to put all our strength into the war against our old way of being, against the part of us that does not want change that is the voice of the negative side. I use the word "war" very deliberately because that's exactly what it is. For real transformation to take place, we have to fight with everything we have, and when we are knocked down, we have to get up again knowing we are that much closer to winning than we were before.
Rav Brandwein explained that the difference between those who win the battle and those that do not is that those who win knew at the outset that it was a battle and they knew that they would win. Those who do not, lacked this understanding and conviction.
The war of consciousness is much more difficult than any physical battle. It is the war that tests us to become better people, and it is not one that is won easily. We need to know there is a process and to trust in it.
The fruit that is not ripe today will someday be sweet. We will change. Our awareness will grow. It is our collective destiny.
While the ego will always seek immediate results, consciousness is developed and transformation occurs when we embrace the process and remain steadfast in battling our spiritual wars.
As long as we choose to continue the battle, we are engaging in a process of change and remain connected to the Light.
Yehuda Berg

After several years of observing and reading an advertisement, which solicited for older cars, boats, or RVs, in almost an anonymous fashion to do the "humane thing" as it was worded, my curiosity got the best of me because I wanted to know exactly what humane society this ad was referencing because it did not give its complete name.
I called the number given and a telemarketer informed me it was for no other than the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS).
Considering that this community has always struggled raising funds for animals in need, I found it shameless that this corporate non-profit would be targeting our community, especially since their CEO, according to my last research in 2014, was collecting a salary in excess of $350,000.
I remember during Hurricane Katrina, one of the deadliest hurricanes in U.S. history in 2005, Wayne Pacelle, CEO of HSUS pleaded from a disaster site for "substantial financial donations" to rescue animals all the while small groups, especially from California were on site implementing animal rescue.
Time and time again, empty promises have been made by the HSUS such as the press releases misinforming the public that crates where calves and pigs are confined have become obsolete, when they continue to exist by the corporations that Pacelle was having dialogue with.
The foie de grass that is produced by force feeding ducks and geese, hailed to come to an end in 2018 by HSUS, continues as does more promises and perpetual fundraising events.
The expansion of space for egg producing poultry is still uncertain and anyone who monitors egg commercials will notice that the chicks depicted in the ads in an open space, are mostly lying down and not really active.
In 1982, Harmony Kennels Foundation gave refuge to chickens, geese and ducks. I recall that the poultry here were all too busy scratching the grounds, quite unlike the ones shown on the television egg commercials.
Are these egg commercials businesses Pacelle was having dialogue with?
And what of the promises that male chicks would no longer be crushed alive in machines that were to become obsolete because males are not of use in the egg industry?
Who is inspecting for anticruelty practices of raising poultry?
The liaison that Pacelle made with Michael Vick was yet another blow and divide to many supporters.
HSUS board members did not stand up against such a disgraceful alliance and instead went along with Pacelle, embracing a vicious thug who was convicted of illegal gambling and not sentenced for his bloody crimes against sentient beings.
HSUS further discredited itself by allowing this dog fighting criminal to have a dog in his home.
Exploits are still remembered such as when in 2014 a payment of $15.7 million was given to Field Entertainment, owner of the now defunct Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey Circus for false statements.
An insider once told me that when any organization becomes large, there is no accountability because the average donor does not question their finances. Anyone who calls to question is usually placed on hold. Salaries of executives are always justified just as those of politicians.
Animal organizations would be wise to maintain decorum above that of politicians.
Animal advocates are expected by their supporters to keep at bay actions that would jeopardize "trust."
There were numerous indications that many people were displeased with the direction the HSUS was taking under its leader, Pacelle, elected in 2003.
Many felt that the organization took credit for more than was actually achieved, often citing work that had actually been done by smaller animal organizations.
Rumors of misconduct in the workplace involving sexual harassment were circulating for years, yet sadly nothing was done until such allegations publicly stained the HSUS already questionable reputation.
By January of this year Marc Gunther was hired to investigate such allegations.
Finally, on February 2, the CEO of the Humane Society of the United States, Wayne Pacelle resigned following three sexual harassment allegations.
In an email to staff, Pacelle said, "our mission depends on unity."
Kitty Block has been named acting president and CEO for the Humane Society of the United States, which leaves the public still questioning the salaries and investments overseas of these executives and how fair it is to animals in need or donors, after all, this millionaire society still does not have an animal shelter of its own.

Why Glimpse Engines Purging ODP Clone Web-sites?
There are whole lot of web sites which are thoroughly or partly clone of ODP (Open up Listing Venture).All those sites or portion aspect of web-sites, which are applying ODP script toward reformat the information and facts upon there website are pointless and they include no initial fresh contents. It is learnt that glance motor primarily Google is purging or banning these kinds of style of internet sites. Why glimpse engines are in opposition to Dmoz clone web sites? Is the details in just them not profitable or are they been misused as a result of website operator's? We will consider toward obtain our cause, yet just before that permit us initially comprehend all concerning Dmoz Listing
What is Dmoz Listing (ODP ) The Open up Listing Task is the most important, maximum extensive human-edited listing upon the world-wide-web. It is owned by means of "Year Warner" and created and preserved by means of a huge, world area of volunteer editors, and is actually special within just innumerable techniques. The Open up Listing, furthermore recognized as DMOZ (the area status of ODP), is a substantial, labeled listing of sites and web pages, which is staffed via volunteers. Each individual world-wide-web and site that is extra towards the listing includes toward be manually discussed just before it is incorporated. Due to the fact its index is manually built and edited, categorization and relevancy is significant in direction of any other index of its style and the two as exclusive, is the truth that this details is open up and cost-free toward the general public for replication. As of July 2005, ODP experienced regarding 4.6 million listings prepared into about 580,000 classes derived in opposition to the contributions of some 69,000 editors.
How is this totally free details been employed in direction of produce Dmoz Clone? There are a ton of ODP scripts in direction of generate clone of the ODP. These kinds of scripts lets your self in the direction of insert are living facts of the Open up Listing Task at dmoz.org in the direction of your personal web taking a exceptionally straightforward toward personalize template primarily based approach. Consumers can read and glance groups of sites. Individuals scripts that grabs dwell contents of the Open up Listing dynamically and formats them towards deliver your individual edition of the Open up Listing. This kind of are little scripts comprise number of information in direction of particularly uploaded upon your server and by yourself can obtain 1000's of Dmoz listing web pages upon your internet site in just your individual templates layout. Individuals scripts simply just buy are living information and facts in opposition to Dmoz.org and it consists of no unique clean contents.
Does Dmoz Clone carry site visitors? Webmaster do not such as Dmoz clone web sites as they incorporate not unique information as a substitute contain replica contents and no physique will which includes in direction of url a web page or vote a web page which contains reproduction contents. Utmost Those will not even examine your listing. Greatest humans will merely read through 2-10 internet pages of your listing, they will exactly depart and in no way appear again.
Why Appear Engines are versus Dmoz Clone?
There are different motives which are discussed as:
1. There is no Authentic Pleased which is demanded towards deliver a Good quality Web page.
2. Reproduction contents as all scripts extract are living info towards Dmoz and establish countless numbers of comparable internet pages upon the world-wide-web.
3. The Dmoz listing incorporates further than 580,000 groups If hundreds of web page will get the are living contents against Dmoz it will good results into manufacturing of hundreds of thousands of comparable webpages which is creating world wide web a junkyard of very similar internet pages with almost nothing fresh.

Beware of scam phone calls seeking payment to avoid arrest
By Cathy Locke
November 10, 2017 7:12 PM
The Sacramento County Sheriff's Department is warning residents of scam phone calls purporting to be from a Sheriff's Department employee.
Residents have reported receiving calls from someone who claims to be a sheriff's employee informing victims that they have a warrant and must make a payment to avoid arrest. The caller provides instructions on how to make the payment, according to a Sheriff's Department news release.
"We would like to advise our residents that our Warrants Bureau will not call demanding payment to clear a warrant and to be cautious regarding any phone call from an unknown source demanding monetary payment," the news release says.
The Sheriff's Department advises anyone who receives this or other scam phone calls to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission via the commission's website,

And here we are May has been and gone and its been quite a busy month.
It started with both Miss Dean Junior and co-pilot feeling very fragile after having a horrible virus at the end of April.
In fact they both still have nasty coughs.
So where shall I start?
7th May seems like a good idea.
I was scheduled to perform at The White Swan in London that night, but Miss Dean Junior & co-pilot went to see "Sunset Boulevard" for the 2nd time, as the first visit had
been somewhat spoiled by the start of the dreaded virus, sadly I couldn't go with them, and with hindsight, I bloody well wish I had!!!!
After seeing the show for the 1st time on 27th April, whilst off from school due to illness Stevie wrote to Glenn Close.
The letter was, I am told, quite charming, but sadly she didn't get a reply, so before they went into the theatre for the last matinee (not one to give up easily) she took a card round to the stage door,
but was told that they couldn't guarantee they would get it to Miss Close and maybe they should pop round to the stage door after the matinee as Miss Close often
comes out to meet fans, but again as this was the final day, and they were expecting a lot of visitors, it couldn't be guaranteed.
Miss Dean junior wasn't interested in hanging round the stage door, so politely declined.
"I wrote to her already" she said. The lady at the stage door seemed surprised "and Miss Close didn't reply?" she asked.
"No" said Stevie, looking hurt. "I will make sure she gets it personally, as soon as she arrives, I promise" the lady said.
So off co-pilot and Stevie went, not really thinking any more about it, just happy that the card was destined to delivered in person.
The show was obviously brilliant, but they were way up in the Gods, with Stevie following Glenn Close's every move through a pair of binoculars, transfixed, but as Stevie said in her card
"Im very high up in the balcony, so I might not be able to see you very well, but that doesn't matter because I will hear you, and I hope you will hear me cheering for you" Like I said, utterly charming!
The interval came, and they got up to go for ice cream, but before they could leave their seats a gentleman approached. "Excuse me young lady" he said to Stevie, "Please can you tell me your name?"
She told him. "Ah, Stevie, I believe you have seen the show twice?" she nodded "and you have written to Miss Close twice?" She nodded again.
"Well Miss Close has sent me to tell you that she would very much like to meet you after the show, and that she is very excited to meet you!" Obviously both Stevie and co-pilot were totally shocked.
Stevie had put their exact seat numbers in her card (thats my girl) she wanted Miss Close to know exactly where she was – and it worked!!
The man sat next to them couldn't believe it and said to Stevie "I'm going to see Bruce Springsteen in the Summer. Could you write to him for me please?"
They called me, giggling with excitement "Mama! You'll never guess what just happened" she said " We are going to meet Glenn Close"
To say I was gutted would be the understatement of the century!!!!
The 2nd half of the show started, and Stevie didn't bother with the binoculars "I don't need these anymore, I'm going to meet her!"
The 2nd half of the show feeling that much more intimate knowing that very soon
they were indeed going to meet "Norma Desmond"
After the show, and the many standing ovations, they went to where they had been instructed to wait, and within minutes were whisked backstage, and to a door, and before they know it ushered into a room where
Glenn Close, Hollywood A lister (and one of my favourite actresses of all time!) stood waiting for them – wet hair, no make up, dressing gown and slippers.
Stevie did what Stevie always does – she rushed up to her and threw her arms around her for a massive hug.
They chatted "Ah Stevie, a girl with a boys name just like me, and you are going to sing "Surrender" for an audition right?"
Co-pilot tells me that she was absolutely adorable, and Stevie, a little overwhelmed (its Cruella DeVille for heavens sake) just threw herself in for more hugs when she couldn't think of what to say.
So audition advice was given, and let me say, its was very good advice.
My little girl now has a secret weapon in any situation that she feels nervous of, she just has to imagine Glenn Close standing with her, in her dressing gown and slippers
telling her that there is nothing that she can't do, and that she must sing & fly…and obviously she has Mama's advice too, which is BREATHE!
Their private chat continued, as did the hugs, before they bid Miss Close a very (very) fond farewell, but not before Stevie was given a bouquet of balloon flowers.
They both left completely entranced and very much in love with the wonderful Miss Close.
I headed off (somewhat dejected) to The White Swan, and thanks to my Sat Nav, went the scenic route, it took me forever leaving me stressed and grumpy due to very busy traffic.
That said, I had a great show, and the venue looks fab!
My next show was also in London, a 50th birthday & Leaving for America party.
I was the surprise for Mark & Robs guests – I think there were suitably shocked when I appeared.
Just before the show I received a call from my neighbour (and friend) Hilary. You may remember hers was the first voicemail received on arrival home from holiday.
Her calls usually start with "Nothing to worry about BUT……"
And this evenings call was no different. Hillary was on Buddy duty, taking him out for a "comfort walk" while we were out…..things did not go to plan.
"Hello. Only me. Nothing to worry about, but I've lost your front door key and my back door key somewhere in a field" she carried on "Buddy and I were both locked out, but I managed to get Rory (another neighbour) to climb over my garden wall and let me in. Don't worry, Buddy can spend the night with me and I'll bring him round late morning. We will go back to the fields and try to find the keys tomorrow"
Now, climbing over the garden wall in my road has become somewhat of an art. In fact its a little like "Hectors House" and happens quite frequently.
Co-pilot has been over the neighbours wall more times than Hector, Kiki and Zsa Zsa put together. Once over Denise's. Once over Hilary's. Twice over Wendy's!
Life in Dean Towers is NEVER dull.
So Buddy spent the night at Hilarys, flat on his back, snoring like a rhino. He loved it!
Co-pilot and I drove home after midnight, and got stuck in the most hideous traffic. I cannot believe how many people were out and about in the Vauxhall area at that time of night.
It was like Wacky Races round there!!!
Apart from Glenn Close, the next big thing in our family has been Year 6 Sex Education.
The daily updates proved very popular on Facebook, so I don't think there is anything you don't know.
Stevie did come home on the first day, regaling us with the graphic details.
"The teacher made us tell her all the names we knew for the reproductive parts and XXXX (a boy who shall remain nameless, but you know who I mean Mrs B)
shouted out BULLOCKS. Im not sure what bullocks have to do with anything Mama?" she said.
Quite frankly, I surprised bullocks was the worst thing that got shouted under the circumstances.
My first Pride of the year was on 28th May in Bradford at Odsal Stadium.
The organisers did an amazing job pulling it all together after the original event was cancelled. Prides are usually a good opportunity to meet up with friends, and this one was no exception.
My next show, Sat 4th June Wolverhampton, and its a FREE event, so if you are in the area come along and dance the night away with me and my mates, Sonia, Nathan, Jaki Graham and Carol Decker!!
Stevie did the audition, but the role went to another girl.
Apparently my babies version of "Surrender" was perfect, and he friends were outraged that she didn't get the part.
In fact one friend was so enraged she told the teachers they had made a big mistake!
Stevie took it in her stride – you win some, you lose some, and as Miss Close says, you take it on the chin…
"but never forget you can fly!"
PPS. School social event of the year….guess who won a bottle of prosecco?!!!
A clue..it wasn't Suzy or Sarah!

Boy Scout Molested By Scout Leader Timur Dykes Testifies, Says Dykes was "The Coolest"
The man testified in court in Portland, Ore., that at first he worshipped Timur Dykes because he knew everything about the woods, was an expert mountain climber, and goofed around just like a kid.
Dykes has already admitted that he abused the plaintiff in the 1980s. Dykes was convicted three times of sexually abusing boys between 1983 and 1994, most of them Scouts.
The suit alleges the Boy Scouts knew it had child molesters among its troop leaders, but didn't tell parents or authorities. The Scouts say they kept confidential files on suspected molesters to protect children.
Charles Smith, attorney for the national Boy Scouts, earlier told jurors the documents helped national scouting leaders weed out sex offenders, especially repeat offenders who may have changed names or moved in an attempt to join another local scouting group.
Dozens of lawsuits have been filed against the Boy Scouts over sex abuse allegations, but judges for the most part have either denied requests for the documents - dubbed the "perversion files" by the Boy Scouts of America - or the cases have been settled out of court. The only other time the documents are believed to have been presented at a trial was in the 1980s in Virginia.
Boy Scouts of America spokesman Deron Smith has said the organization cannot comment on details of the case, but has worked hard on awareness and prevention efforts, including background checks.

CORDOVA - On his family's 3,000-acre farm near Easton, Bobby Hutchison has been monitoring an office computer every 15 minutes for updates on Chicago commodities markets. But lately, it seems he ought to be checking the cost of diesel fuel and fertilizer nearly as often.
The Hutchisons and other Eastern Shore farmers have been deciding how much land to devote to corn - a crop that is commanding $6 a bushel, triple the price it fetched just a couple years ago. On the flip side, though, is the soaring price of diesel fuel that keeps a fleet of tractors and combines rumbling.
"With corn prices like this, it's really our wildest dreams," Hutchison says.
Yet it's also worrisome. High corn prices could mean one of the best years ever for Shore farmers - but if production costs keep going up, they could lose a bundle. Similar uncertainties confront Marylanders from all walks of life these days as they try to navigate a fast-changing economic landscape. Many families are buffeted by forces such as higher food and energy prices and stagnant wages. At the same time, a tumultuous economy can bring opportunities - potentially, for instance, in the sale of corn.

Leading Nitric Oxide Supplements - Is Xtreme No The Response?The fastest approach to train for size is by attaining cumulative tiredness through high repetitions, multiples sets for each body part, and training to failure. The objective here is to tear the muscles down as much as possible eventually causing hypertrophy muscle growth. For a number of folks, this is the only method they train.
Think of this. Have you ever done something physically various one day even for a brief quantity of time then felt actually aching the next day and made some comment like "gee I must have found some new muscles"? Well there you go. You simply did something, most likely reasonably intense, like relocation some granite bolder in your buddy's wife's garden. Worked your rear end off for five minutes or less and presto - new muscles!
For those seeking to bulk up for a competitors, they should be wanting to place on as much muscle as possible with the least amount of fat. One optimum way to do this is to take amino acid supplements. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein.
Drink great deals of water. Very first thing in the morning in a standing position, attempt to consume 3/4 to 1 litre of useful source water directly down in one continuous motion, without gulping. Goal for a total of two litres of water throughout a day.
If they actually work, you may have heard about certain muslce builder and questioned. There are a few on the market that will in fact make a distinction to a weight gain program for guys.

Like most of the country, Chicago is currently experiencing a heat wave. It's been in the 70s, even hitting 80 degrees, and this in a month in which snow would not be unexpected. It was so warm yesterday that I had a momentary desire to turn on the air-conditioning! I resisted, but thinking about air-conditioning reminded me of the joy of walking into an air-conditioned building during a hot, sticky, humid day in Walt Disney World. It's particularly nice when you can sit down in those air-conditioned buildings, and the movie-based attractions tend to be good places to do just that. (Although, there are a few movies during which you do have to stand.) So, today I'm going to cover things to do in Walt Disney World if you love watching movies (the air-conditioning could be just a nice bonus).
I already did a post on the 3-D movies in Walt Disney World, so the first five items on this list are described there.
1. Mickey's PhilharMagic
2. Captain EO starring Michael Jackson
3. Muppet*Vision 3-D
4. It's Tough to be a Bug!
5. Star Tours: The Adventures Continue
6. Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor
This attraction is themed as a comedy club, but since the monster comics you see are all on screen, I'm considering it a movie-based attraction. In addition to the corny humor, you also get the benefit of possibly being part of the show yourself! Several audience members appear on screen at different times, so be prepared!

Dancing with the Sam
The music was chosen from youtube defaults - the rhythm matched Sam's moves fairly well.
Twallan's mod reports that Sam can learn to dance a bit better than this. I'm not sure my heart could take it.
This is three quick videos combined to one longer one

Hehehe--very cute. Those animations really never get old... They did a fantastic job with them, I think. It's still weird seeing a guy dance like that, but... Hehehehe. Man, is it enjoyable!ReplyDelete
Good choice of music, too--it does seem to fit the flow of his dancing.
Oh, and what I can see of the living room looks pretty good, too. I like that flooring much more than the worn wood it used to have. Yup, better living room > Butler bedroom! ;)
I had a great time watching.ReplyDelete
He started in one of the dance clubs but you really couldn't see properly. So he danced again at home which is easier.
The floor, the wallpaper and the furniture were all changed. You will see it more properly with the next (soonish) update.
Love the music and it really fit with the animation. Nice angle too. It made the dancing looks very great!ReplyDelete
Thanks MJ.ReplyDelete
Sam club dancing was just too much fun not to share!

No rigid rules, labels or dogmas.... just REAL food, for your body, mind & soul!
I am finally going to make the leap and get a dehydrator. I am thinking I should get the exchalibur 9 but it is on me I will be using it for. I most likely will make extra stuff for the couple of friends that might eat what I make. So if I only use a few trays at a time is it a waste to have one that big for maybe the few times I need all trays?
Also what are the extra items you need? The mesh sheets etc?
Any advice would be great.

Which Hunger Games actress is the lead in David Gordon Green's remake of Suspiria?
The remake of SUSPIRIA that David Gordon Green has been trying to make for five years was finally greenlit last month and now it has found it's star.
Isabelle Fuhrman, the creepy little girl from ORPHAN and costar of THE HUNGER GAMES, will don the ballet slippers once worn by Jessica Harper. Fuhrman is only 15 years old but has definitely shed the creepy kid factor and looks like she has the body type to play a ballerina.
Also joining the cast are Isabelle Huppert (THE PIANO TEACHER), two-time Academy Award-nominee Janet McTeer (ALBERT NOBBS, THE WOMAN IN BLACK), Michael Nyqvist (MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: GHOST PROTOCOL) and Antje Traue (SUPERMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL).
Plot: Based on Dario Argento's 1977 film of the same name, SUSPIRIA centers on Suzie (Isabelle Fuhrman), a bright and ambitious American student who travels to Europe to attend a world renowned school. After a fellow student is brutally murdered and several other cruel and strange homicides disrupt the once quiet life on campus, Suzie realizes that the academy may be a front for a more menacing organization.
I am still willing to give Green a chance with this one. I keep the original film sacred and recommend it to everyone looking for a unique horror movie. With the junk that passes for quality horror these days, even a half assed remake of SUSPIRIA would be a welcome change.
Filming begins in September and no release date is currently set.

Mamma Mia is simply fun ... fun and lively and funny and feel good and, did I mention fun? I was entertained, impressed with most of the singing, and slightly uncomfortable listening to Pierce Brosnan sing S.O.S. Oye! Pierce needs to stick to those "I'm the coolest British [spy, thief, mystery man] you'll ever meet" roles.
2) The Grand Rapids Symphony Picnic Pops - ABBA, The Hits. If you've never attended a Grand Rapids Symphony Picnic Pops concert, you're missing one of the many things that make Grand Rapids a wonderful place in which to live. The concerts take place outside at the Cannonsburg Ski Area. You grab food, drink, friends, and lounge under the stars while the symphony plays. I took my stepmom to the July 31st concert based on ABBA songs. Surrounded by people of all shapes, sizes, and ages, we enjoyed an evening of ABBA songs that began rather mildly yet ended with an all-age MOSH pit for lack of a better description. I cannot begin to describe the level of people watching that these events supply. I had tears in my eyes and smile-pained cheeks by the end of the night.
3) The Murder Trial. Finally, on a more somber yet just as insane note, ABBA again entered my summer through a trial in which a man was convicted of first-degree murder for killing his estranged boyfriend by shooting him five times and beating him with the boyfriend's metal crutch. What caused this man to snap? To lash out in such a vicious way? An unfulfilled promise that the boyfriend would "hold" him after they were intimate.
Defendant claimed that this was a murder committed in the heat of passion and not worthy of a first-degree murder conviction. This man went down to a basement, grabbed a loaded gun, went back upstairs to the bedroom and unloaded that gun into his sleeping boyfriend. He then went back downstairs to reload the gun, went back upstairs, and attempted to shoot the victim again but the gun jammed. Did he then stop? No. He grabbed a crutch when the gun jammed and proceeded to beat the boyfriend until he stopped crawling and the crutch broke. I say that these events took enough time for a reasonable person to think about what they were doing; that's first-degree murder. And, let's face it, the thought of cuddling after sex as a reasonable basis for a murder to be deemed committed in the heat of passion should frighten all men, gay or straight, young or old.
The ABBA connection? After murdering his friend, defendant went into the living room and proceeded to listen to the same ABBA song, "their" song, over and over again for 3 hours before calling anyone to the scene. What song? It is rumored to be Fernando; however, the officers responding to the scene have apparently blocked the specifics of the blaring music out because they are now not certain. So, we only know that it was ABBA.
After all of this, could I help myself digging out my ABBA Gold CD from the depths of my unused CD collection? Of course not. How else can I listen to "my" song over and over again on repeat? Share the insanity. It is the summer of ABBA!

SAN ANTONIO — The Gonzales Lady Apaches played tough, but were out-matched by District 28-4A's champion Fredericksburg, losing in the bi-district round of the playoffs (25-17, 25-11, 25-8) at the McDermott Convocation Center at the University of Incarnate Word in San Antonio.
"I'm really proud of the girls," Gonzales Head Coach Bernice Voigt said. "They stood up against them and got some stuff up they shouldn't have. We played with them in several occasions. We were just out-powered — but they fought and didn't give up and I'm so proud of them for that. They kept wanting to get to the next ball, didn't always go our way, but they kept at it. They didn't stop and I'm really proud of them for that."
One point in particular illustrated the fight the Lady Apaches had against the Lady Billies in the second set. Down 5-2, Fredericksburg slammed the ball down on multiple attacks, yet Lady Apaches' Hayley Sample, Maura Garcia and Samantha Barnick were there for digs, with Gonzales eventually winning the point on a kill by Chelsie Hastings.
"Hayley and Maura were picking up everything," Voigt said, "and then Sam got some and they didn't know where it was coming from. We just kept giving it back to them and the girls got energized and it was fun. They realized they can compete with them. Just little things ate us up."
Despite losing the final set 25-8, Voigt admitted this bout was leaps and bounds better than last year's bi-district matchup against Fredericksburg.
"This is so much better than last year," she said, "and next year it'll even be better. We'll just have to keep on working and believing in each other."
Gonzales' lone senior, Cameron Kluting, was credited for her leadership throughout the season.
"She's a good leader," Voigt explained. "She worked hard. She wanted us to be successful and she never quit and she's' been injured the whole season."
The Lady Apaches finished the district in fourth, with plenty of talent returning next season.

Germany agriculture minister Christian Schmidt was quoted by The Financial Times as saying at a crisis summit in Berlin: "We all agreed that on the one hand we need structural improvements, but on the other that we need to provide short-term assistance to farmers.
"The federal government will provide the farmers with a package of €100m plus X. I am in talks with the finance minister, and will talk to [Germany's] states and Europe to determine how large the X is."
Germany is considered to be EU's biggest milk producer with 73,300 dairy farms producing around 32 million tons of milk in 2014, which was around one-fifth of all the milk produced in the region.
With a sharp decline in milk prices from more than 41 cents per kilo in 2013 to about 24 cents now, the country has suffered badly, according to the agriculture minister.
The European Milk Board's study found that in January the farm-gate price for German milk was 28.66 cents per kilo of milk compared to production cost of 44.94 cents per kilo, the publication cited.
The European Milk Board chairman Romuald Schaber was quoted by the publication as saying: "In the last three years, Europe has produced 13m tonnes more milk than it can consume, and this excess has to be completely sent abroad, because the demand in Europe is stagnating. That is the problem."
Schmidt said that representatives of the industry such as farmers and dairies had agreed to begin discussions on measures to revive the dairy industry including short-term cuts in ouput, the publication stated.
Schmidt said: "Farmers and dairies have to match supply and demand better than they have until now. We have to achieve an up-to-date and flexible way of controlling of supply."

Badger Brand Organic Anti-Bug Balm
With summer in full swing, I am periodically asked by clients what natural "anti-bug" products are available for adults and children. One product that I particularly like is Badger brand Anti-Bug Balm (roll-up stick). I like this product as it is organic and free of chemicals (DEET, etc.), smells great (citronella, cedar, and lemongrass), and it works very well in my experience. This product can be purchased at Whole Foods. For more information regarding Badger products, or to order online, click

It is a happy, happy Thursday. Let me just say OOH. MYY. GAAWD. I absolutely cannot believe I was so lucky as to be chosen in Mimi G's (just learned linking) fabulous Janome giveaway. Thank you Mimi and the random.org website. I can't wait to get it and start sewing (I'm hoping some of her skill will magically transfer to me - it could happen).
Still working on carving out that corner. Will post pics when it's somewhat presentable.

The staff were so helpful and kind, the Executive Villa was perfect. Breakfast from Kilo restaurant was great and could be delivered to the villa, Spa was beautiful and complimentary massages included with our booking. Will definitely stay again, can't say enough good stuff about Uma Sapna!
We stayed in the Royal Villa for 7 nights of our Honeymoon and it was amazing!! We really didn't want to leave. Staff were extremely friendly and check in was simple. Location was perfect for us - close to restaurants. You can walk to the beach via a shortcut but we preferred to enjoy our huge private pool. Coco Supermarket was walking distance and plenty of mini-marts close by. Our Royal Villa was furthermost away from the road - so nice & quiet. It also had an outdoor kitchen with a large fridge, filtered water machine, coffee making facilities, lounge etc. The pool was our favorite part. You could swim day or night. The water temperature was perfect for us. It also was very pretty when lit up at night. Breakfast each morning (kilo kitchen) was delicious. We mostly ate in the restaurant, although you can pre-order the day before to have it delivered to your room. Housekeeping was so efficient, by the time we came back from breakfast and a small walk our room was clean. They also did a turn down later in the evening. Rose petals on the bed when we arrived was a lovely touch! Dharma (apologies if I spelt this incorrectly) was our driver to Tanah Lot - he was GREAT! He was really nice, easy to talk to and informative! Thank you to everyone at Uma Sapna for making our honeymoon perfect!
My husband, baby and I stayed at Uma Sapna and thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The grounds are stunning, picturesque and spotlessly clean. The staff treat you like family and showed our family so much kindness. They went above and beyond more than once surprising us with a Birthday cake and helping us retrieve a lost phone. They really made sure we felt welcome and comfortable. Our private villa was very comfortable. It was lovely to wake up in the morning and jump straight in the pool. While our son was in bed we had the pool to swim in and ordered room service from Kilo. The adjoining restaurant Kilo was great! We would like to make special mention to a few of staff Ani, Ira and Rizky. They were so lovely. The location of the villa was great with a few good eateries nearby and great shopping too.
The property locates in a quiet alley of a convenient district. Some shopping and eateries are within walking distance. Although it is still best to rent a motorbike. The property is overall well maintained. We stayed at the Royal Villa which i recommended. The pool size is most decent you can actually have a swim. Especially when the communal pool is very small and right at the entrance (little privacy), which is more for show than for actual use. Bed is very comfortable. Enough English TV channels. I like that they keep the dining and pantry area outdoor. There is also a water cooler there so you don't have to call for bottled water every hour you stay there. In-room massage was very good. My masseur Sueci really took care of me. Breakfasts are served a la carte and you can order for them to bring it into the villa for you. They are very punctual which i appreciated. All the staff overall are very nice, friendly, smart and helpful.
Picture perfect private villas. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A highlight for us was the amazing Kilo restaurant that is attached to Uma Sapna. Kilo provides the food for room service and breakfast, we have never had food this amazing at a hotel. Think squid ink pasta by your own private pool! Our friends recommended we stay here and we are so glad we took them up on their offer! 100% recommend.
We stayed at Uma Sapna for 3ngts during our stay in Bali. We booked the plunge pool villa. The villa was really spacious with ample storage and seating areas - inside and out. The villa was clean and comfortable. They provide 4 bottles of complimentary water each day. I'm just a little over 5ft and I could just about touch the floor in the plunge pool. But it was still nice to chill out and sit in. The main pool was hardly used and we had it to ourselves for an afternoon. Top notch service from the moment we checked in through to house keeping. Everyone was always smiling and friendly. Breakfast was at the Kilo restaurant at top of the road. Beautiful modern setting. The menu offered a decent selection - good portions. There are several small supermarkets along the main road and some warungs, eateries. The beach was a good 15min walk as well as Seminyak Sq. we took a taxi to Beachwalk shopping centre in Kuta, due to traffic, we decided to walk back from Legian after watching sunset which took some time as there were lots of shops, boutiques and eateries along the way. Overall, we had a wonderful stay which added to our anniversary trip. Highly recommend.
We stayed at Uma Sapna from the 28th Sep 2018 for 3 nights and we wish it could have been longer! We had villa called "Tidore" which is a one bedroom pool villa. The villa was amazing, very spacious for 2 of us and the pool was great! We also had the sun most of the day and felt so relaxed spending the day in our own private space. Service was perfect, all the staff were very friendly and they always worked around us for cleaning the room, waiting until we went out etc. The staff were helpful for recommendations and organised us a private car to get to our next location. The breakfast at Kilo was amazing! The best we had on our trip. There are a lot of options and the ones we tried were all equally good. Coffee was also delicious. It was a real treat to be able to enjoy this every morning. Although we didn't have an evening meal here as we wanted to explore other places, we did order lunch to our room which did not disappoint. We used the spa for one (out of two) free 15 minute massage and one hour long Balinese massage. The massages were very good and reasonable prices. I was told at reception I could use my free 15 minutes as part of the hour massage but upon check out this wasn't the case. Although not a big deal, we did miss out on our second free 15 minutes. The location of Uma Sapna was great for us. Not too close to the busy roads but easy walking distance. Restaurants we enjoyed included Ginger Moon, Saigon Street and Chandi. 100% recommend Uma Sapna!
My partner and I stayed 5 nights at Uma Sapna just this week and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is easy walking distance from the Main Street yet you don't hear the hustle & bustle of Seminyak so you can really let go and relax. The Executive villa was perfect for our needs and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast daily at Kilo Bali was great and fully set us up for our day. Highly recommend for a break in Bali!
Uma Sapna is a beautiful villa complex filled with friendly staff members and stunning private villas. We stayed in a pool villa and our space was huge! Really bright and spacious living area and a large, well-maintained garden with a pool kept at the perfect temperature! The daily breakfasts were amazing!!Within walking distance to many lovely resturants and far back from busy roads so you have peace and quiet when resting in your garden. The onsite spa treatments are wonderful. With our recent 10 night stay, we were provided with some complimentary massages.This was our second stay at Uma Sapna and we highly recommend it!Perfect for a relaxing getaway :)Thank You Uma Sapna staff for making our stay very enjoyable!
I was there with my wife and the hotel is very good. Staff is friendly. They have a good breakfast and good restaurant which is Kilo restaurant. The hotel is very clean. The private pool villa is fantastic and breath taking
Just back from a wonderful stay at Uma Sapna. We booked direct through website - stay 4 pay 3 - which included transfers, full breakfast, welcome drink and massage vouchers. Great communication by hotel - a few days before we were due to arrive, we received an email asking if we needed any help with booking restaurants, tours etc... We were upgraded to a pool villa - THANK YOU - this was amazing. Lots of staff always around if we needed help/advice - all with a very friendly smile. Location - great - easy walking distance to everything. Housekeeping - So efficient and discrete. Room was often done while we were at breakfast - so didn't interrupt your relaxing time. Our flight wasn't until late in the day - and we were able to use the Gallery to rest and refresh before we left. We didn't use the main pool - it isn't really the sort of pool we would lie around - although there are lounges and shade... but having the luxury and privacy of your own personal pool was a highlight for us. Cant recommend enough for a romantic couples get away.
I come here for 10 years already. It is the same staff and same kindness as 10 years ago. I always start my holiday in Bali @UmaSapna. It is as coming home for me. Actually I should not write a review, because they are already almost fully booked and sometime trouble to book my own villa ;-)
This was the second time my hubby and I stayed at Uma Sapna, this time around with our baby girl. We had a wonderful time, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. Thank you for the memories on our first family holiday!
Read great reviews on TA and the Uma Sapna lived up to them all. Amazing staff from front desk through to cleaning and of course the drivers, we left feeling really valued as clients. We had a one bedroom villa with swimming pool that we booked directly and received free airport pick up and one hour massage in the spa for both of us that was excellent and one of the highlights of our stay. Clean throughout with housekeeping discreetly cleaning your room twice a day, it can't be faulted. Having seen the villas with a plunge pool pay the extra and get the pool!
We have been staying at Uma Sapna for many years as the staff and the quality of service are second to none. It's like a home away from home and one that never fails to satisfy. Can't wait to come back.
My husband and I just spent 4 wonderful nights in Uma Sapna in Seminyak celebrating our Anniversary. We were very lucky to be upgraded upon arrival and were made to feel very special. We stayed in the Royal Villa Pool Suite and it was wonderful. Super comfortable beds and everything we could need to make our stay wonderful. The staff are incredibly helpful, always smiling and nothing was ever a problem. Breakfast at Kilo every morning was great. We would highly recommend a stay here if you are coming to Seminyak.
We booked direct with Uma Sapna and from this stage to leaving the beautiful establishment we were so impressed with the service provided not to mention the beautiful, clean and modern villas. We received helpful email communication along the way even reminding us to let them know where we were in Bali to receive our free transport to the villas ( we booked a special on their website which included this) We have traveled the world and have never found service so perfect yet so unobtrusive. The staff are professional, happy and intuitive. The villas are stylish and so so clean. Uma Sapna went above and beyond what we could have ever expected. A shout out the head lady at the Spa. She was an amazing masseuse and the facial was spectacular. She was so friendly and genuinely happy to see us when we ran into her a few times during the week. We highly recommend these villas for people looking for a fabulous location in Seminyak who want luxury without the the price tag. Oh yes the breakfasts are top quality as well in the Kilo Restaurant.
Over 60 visits to Bali and this is the best place to stay. Within minutes of arriving you are settled in or beside your own private pool I a villa which was designed for 2 families but which made it all that more luxurious with just the 3 of us. Located right in the heart of trendy Seminyak this place was a delight to stay. Nothing was too much trouble for the friendly attentive staff. The service included pick up and drop off to the airport and a fully inclusive daily breakfast. The Villa was over 200m2 of 2000 square feet so was a real home from home, we will be back and I rated it 5/5
We spent 6 nights at Uma Sapna and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The overall vibe is peaceful and relaxing. We were upgraded to a one bedroom executive pool villa upon arrival (Morotai room 301) which was a lovely surprise. It was located at the back so no one walked past and the only noise to be heard was birds chirping or water trickling from the fountain in the pool. The location was perfect - close enough to walk to eat street but not in the middle of the mayhem. The grounds and area are immaculate and lush with greenery and flowers. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and greeted us with a hello and a smile. No request was too much trouble. My partner had tummy trouble and they had the right tablets on hand and available. On another occasion we wanted to order in and not only did they help find a nearby restaurant that delivered but they rang and ordered for us to eliminate any confusion. We had breakfast delivered to our villa every morning from Kilo Restaurant. On the first evening we ate dinner there and the food was delicious. I had a one hour massage and half hour facial in the spa and it was fabulous. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend!
Fantastic staff, always a ready smile and a friendly greeting.. Comfortable beds and cool air-conditioning. I'd advise that when booking check where your villa is situated. There's a couple that are alongside the busy 'gang' that is populated by scooters and small trucks. I found it difficult to sleep at times due to the noise. The restaurant is fabulous and breakfast was always enjoyable, great coffee and there's that smile again. I'd certainly stay again, prices are good...

text: I've been a huge fan of his short stories over the years. My favorite was "Yore Skin's Jes's Soft 'n Purty" in RAZORED SADDLES, which was edited by Joe R. Lansdale. I defy any horror fan to say that one sucked. It's just not possible. This is the first time I've tackled a novel of his, and so far I'm enjoying it.
