On January 14th, the D.C. Circuit enjoined the F.C.C. from enforcing "net neutrality" rules on Internet Service Providers (ISPs). Unless it is appealed to the Supreme Court, the ruling in Verizon v. F.C.C., 740 F.3d 623 (D.C. Cir. 2014), brings an end to a legal and policy dispute that pitted providers of broadband internet against the federal government, with voices from the business community and the NGO sector weighing in on both sides.
Net Neutrality Explained
Internet Service Providers (ISPs), such as Comcast, Verizon FiOS and Optimum Online generally don't connect you directly to online content providers (such as YouTube, Google and Amazon). Rather, ISPs charge their customers for the right to send and receive content to and from the "backbone," the interconnected network of fiber optic trunk cables that form the core of the internet. Increasingly, such access is provided through a broadband connection. Thus, when person A sends content to person B, the data is first transmitted from A's computer over A's broadband connection to the "backbone," and then carried from the "backbone" over B's broadband connection to B's computer. A and B pay their respective ISPs (who may be the same company, or may be different companies) for their broadband service.
But what if your ISP wants to make it more difficult for you to receive certain content over your broadband? For example, if you subscribe to Comcast (which owns NBC Universal), can Comcast slow down or degrade the quality of videos that you receive from NBC competitors? Alternatively, can your ISP block or interfere with the transmission of certain content over your broadband connection—say, Netflix movies—unless Netflix pays a special fee (a so-called "termination fee")?
Under net neutrality principles, the answer is no: Once you pay your ISP for internet access, the internet service you receive should give equal access to all lawful internet traffic (subject to bandwidth constraints). Your ISP cannot selectively degrade, slow down or block your online traffic. In other words, your ISP should be neutral toward the content that you choose to receive.
The fear that ISPs will interfere with the transmission of legitimate content over their customers' broadband service is not some hypothetical bogeyman; it has been playing out since the mid-2000's:
- In 2005, Madison River Communications, LCC, a telephone company subsidiary that provided broadband service, settled an F.C.C. investigation into whether it had blocked Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) applications, which compete with telephone companies.
- In 2008, the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems found that thirteen ISPs were blocking the peer-to-peer (P2P) application BitTorent, with U.S. cable companies Comcast and Cox the largest offenders. The F.C.C. filed a complaint ordering Comcast to stop.
- In 2009, AT&T objected to the use of Google Voice (which competes with AT&T as a telephone carrier) over AT&T's 2G and 3G mobile data services on Apple devices.
"Telecommunications Service" Providers vs. "Information Service Providers"
The Communications Act of 1934, as amended by the Telecommunications Act of 1996, defines two classes of entities: "telecommunications services" providers, which transmit information in unaltered form, and "information service providers," which process and otherwise manipulate the transmitted information. 47 U.S.C. § 153(24), (50), (51), (53). Telecommunications service providers, but not information service providers, are regulated as "common carriers" under Title II of the Act. Id. § 153(51). Essentially, common carriers must hold themselves out to interested customers on an open and nondiscriminatory basis, charging reasonable and uniform rates. See id. § 201 et. seq. Telephone companies are an example of common carriers.
The Act did not expressly indicate whether broadband providers were telecommunications service providers or information services providers. But in a series of regulations beginning in 2002, the F.C.C. designated broadband service providers as information service providers, exempting them from common carrier status under Title II.
The 2010 Open Internet Order
Even though broadband was exempt from common carrier regulation under the F.C.C.'s own rules, the F.C.C. promulgated its Open Internet Order, providing that fixed broadband providers may not block or "unreasonably discriminate" against lawful content and applications over their broadband services.
Essentially, the Order imposed a net neutrality requirement on the fixed broadband industry. It instructed fixed broadband providers to manage their network in ways that maximize transparency, preserve end-user control, conform to pre-existing industry practices, and do not "interfere with end users' choices about which content, applications, services, or devices to use."
The Order took particular aim at "pay-for-play" and "pay-for-priority" schemes, whereby content providers are assessed a fee by their consumers' ISPs in exchange for access, or prioritized access, to their consumers' broadband connections. According to the Order, such arrangements might incentivize ISPs to create artificial scarcity and disrupt the transmission of content from content providers who did not pay these fees. The Order also expressed concern over the possibility that ISPs might interfere with applications that compete with their telephone or television services, or that they might allow content providers to pay to have their own competitors excluded by the ISP.
The Verizon Case
In 2012, Verizon petitioned for a review of the Order in the D.C. Circuit. One of Verizon's arguments was that the Order violated its First Amendment rights by "stripping them of control over the transmission of speech on their networks." This highly counterintuitive position—that an open internet violated the right to free speech—was picked up and heavily mocked on a number of blogs, with some incorrectly reporting that the Court of Appeals struck down the Order on constitutional grounds.
In fact, Verizon's First Amendment point was a relatively minor part of its argument, and the Court of Appeals declined to address it. The core of Verizon's argument, instead, was jurisdictional: That the F.C.C. had no subject matter jurisdiction to impose net neutrality regulations on the broadband industry.
Because broadband providers are information service providers rather than telecommunication service providers, the F.C.C. could not claim that it was regulating broadband providers as common carriers under Title II. Instead, the F.C.C. relied on its "ancillary jurisdiction" under § 706 of the 1996 Act. Section 706(a) provides that "[t]he Commission … shall encourage the deployment on a reasonable and timely basis of [broadband] capability to all Americans … by utilizing … regulating methods that remove barriers to infrastructure investment." 47 U.S.C. § 1302(a). Section 706(b) similarly provides that if the F.C.C. determines that broadband capability is not "being deployed to all Americans in a reasonable and timely fashion … it shall take immediate action to accelerate deployment of such capability by removing barriers to infrastructure investment…." Id. § 1302(b).
The F.C.C.'s rather contorted argument justifying § 706 jurisdiction was as follows: Internet openness spurs innovation among online content providers, which increases demand not only for online content, but for broadband service itself, creating a "virtuous circle" of innovation between the broadband and content-provider industries. The F.C.C. argued that this fulfilled its mandate under § 706 to encourage the deployment of broadband capability to all Americans.
Verizon, relying on the court's previous opinion in Comcast v. F.C.C., 600 F.3d 642 (D.C. Cir. 2010), argued first that § 706 was a preambulatory statement of policy rather than an independent grant of authority. Even if § 706 were an independent grant of authority, argued Verizon, the F.C.C.'s "virtuous circle" argument was too attenuated. Finally, Verizon argued that even if the F.C.C. had § 706 jurisdiction, the Order contradicted the Communications Act because it effectively regulated broadband providers as common carriers, even though they are information service providers rather than telecommunications providers.
Judge David S. Tatel, writing the majority opinion, agreed with the F.C.C. that § 706 was an independent grant of authority. In so deciding, Judge Tatel directly overruled his own opinion from four years ago in Comcast v. F.C.C., which held that § 706 was just a statement of policy and did not endow the F.C.C. with any power not otherwise provided by the statute. Judge Tatel went on to accept the F.C.C.'s "virtuous circle" argument and held that the F.C.C. had jurisdiction under § 706 to impose net neutrality on the broadband industry.
Nevertheless, the court found that the F.C.C. had exceeded its subject matter jurisdiction because, even though it had jurisdiction under § 706, the Communications Act only permits providers of telecommunications services to be regulated as common carriers. 47 U.S.C. § 153(51). Because the F.C.C. classified broadband providers as information service providers rather than telecommunications services providers, it could not regulate broadband providers as common carriers. Since the Order regulated broadband providers as common carriers, the court found that it exceeded its jurisdiction.
Common carriers are quasi-public entities required to hold themselves out indiscriminately to any interested customers, charging reasonable and uniform rates. The F.C.C. argued that the Order did not impose this obligation on ISPs because it still allowed them to treat their end-user customers differently, even discriminately. The judges disagreed. The crucial pivot in their logic was that ISPs can be regarded as providing services not only to end-users (their paying customers) but to content providers as well by connecting them to their consumers. Thus, because the Order required ISP's to hold themselves out indiscriminately to all content providers, it imposed common carrier-like behavior on them.
On these grounds, the court vacated the Open Internet Order to the extent that it imposed net neutrality requirements on ISPs, and remanded to the F.C.C.
Looking Forward
Does Verizon spell the end for net neutrality in the fixed broadband sector? The F.C.C. has stated that it will instead revise existing regulations to accommodate the ruling, rather than appeal it to the Supreme Court. Indeed, analysts agree that the conservative-leaning Supreme Court would not only uphold the ruling, but narrow the F.C.C.'s powers even further by reversing the portion of the ruling that found that the F.C.C. had regulatory jurisdiction under § 706.
It's not clear how the rules will be rewritten, but F.C.C. Chairman Tom Wheeler left open the so-called "nuclear option:" reclassifying broadband providers as telecommunications service providers rather than information service providers. Recall that reclassification of broadband providers as telecommunications service providers would give the F.C.C. direct authority to regulate them under Title II. This option has particular appeal because, between 1998 and 2005, the F.C.C. actually classified DSL broadband as a telecommunications service, rather than an information service, when provided by telephone companies over their own transmission lines. Thus, the F.C.C. can argue that reclassification simply reverts to an earlier state of affairs (at least with respect to DSL broadband providers).
As former Science and Technology Law Review editor-in-chief Jeff Kao noted in a previous post, the F.C.C. has ample authority to overturn the existing classification. The rulemaking section of the Administrative Procedures Act requires only that the agency "examine the relevant data and articulate a satisfactory explanation for its action." Motor Vehicle Mfrs. Ass'n of U.S., Inc. v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 463 U.S. 29, 43 (1983) (citation omitted). An old rule may be overturned by a new one as long as the new rule is "permissible under the statute, … there are good reasons for it, and … the agency believes it to be better." F.C.C. v. Fox Television Stations, Inc., 556 U.S. 502, 515 (2009) (emphasis in original).
Republicans would fiercely oppose such reclassification: Republican F.C.C. commissioner Ajit Pai has said that, "[u]nless Congress acts, we should stay our hand and refrain from any further attempt to micromanage how broadband providers run their networks." Michael Powell, a former Republican chairman of the F.C.C. who is now president of the National Cable & Telecommunications Association, said that reclassification would be "exceedingly damaging—and more than most people realize. It would be the instant application of thousands of pages of decades-old regulations instantly to the internet where they heretofore have not been."
At a minimum, the law post-Verizon will allow broadband providers to collect fees by engaging in pay-for-play and pay-for-priority schemes. Chairman Wheeler himself indicated his approval of pay-for-priority systems, even though they appear to go against the Open Internet Order. Now that they are legal, there is every reason to believe that termination fees will be introduced to the fixed broadband market; the mobile broadband market, which was never subject to the Open Internet Order's net neutrality principles, already has them.
Proponents of increased industry regulation will find a silver lining, however. By interpreting § 706 as an independent grant of statutory authority to the F.C.C., the Court of Appeals did nothing less than empower the F.C.C. to "encourage the deployment on a reasonable and timely basis of [broadband] capability to all Americans … by utilizing … price cap regulation, regulatory forbearance, measures that promote competition in the local telecommunications market, or other regulating methods that remove barriers to infrastructure investment." 47 U.S.C. § 1302(a). In other words, Verizon would appear to allow the F.C.C. to pass any regulation, not otherwise in conflict with the Communications Act, that tends to "encourage" the deployment of broadband in the United States. The degree to which this portion of the opinion will enlarge the scope of the F.C.C.'s power over the broadband industry should not be understated.
Update: On February 23rd, Netflix and Comcast announced a deal whereby Netflix will pay fees to Comcast in exchange for faster and more reliable service to its subscribers.

So let's step back for a minute… A go at a distance of 216KM is a challenge; clearly an ultra-distance. But dear reader, like a number of other uniquely challenging events, it is not the distance alone that makes the Hexenstieg Ultra one of a kind. Adding to "the sweetness" of this ultra are a number of other dynamic factors. In addition to the distance runners face 4,500 meters or 14,764 feet of elevation change including summiting the Brocken. Late April weather conditions in the Harz are best described as dramatically unpredictable. 2015 conditions included sunshine, blue skies and mild temperatures on Friday, 24 April. Friday night was cool and relatively clear. Saturday and early Sunday morning included low temperatures, rain, sleet and snow and very high wind at elevation. Harzer weather conditions were to come back to haunt me later in my 2015 attempt. More on that later… Oh, we can't also lose sight of the distance between aid stations (sometimes up to 30KM) and the roughness of some of the trails (when there was a trail).
As the old saying goes, no good plan survives initial contact… In this case my plans going into the Hexenstieg 2015 did not survey my work issues three weeks prior to the event. I had initially planned to take Thursday, 23 April off in order to leisurely travel to Osterode to take part in pre-race activities. Instead, I faced either not starting at all or traveling after a full work day Thursday evening. After talking with Micha and Lutz, my running partner, I decided to give the journey a go. I finally got out of Stuttgart and into classic German traffic jams at 1800 Thursday evening. The trip to Osterode took me until about 2215. My reception by Coni, Stefan and Micha that evening was simply fantastic and a clear reminder why I prefer running these small, friendly venues. Coni had my starter kit set up, Stefan offered me dinner and Micha provided a personal brief on the course and event. I remain very appreciative for Lutz's gracious attitude in our hotel room. He allowed me to keep him awake until 2300 organizing my running kit and getting caught up with him.
Friday morning came much too early with the only saving grace being the great breakfast spread that Stefan and his team at the Hotel Harzer Hof provided for us. I can't say enough about Stefan and the Hotel Harzer Hof crew. Annually, Stefan turns the Harzer Hof into the headquarters for the Hexenstieg Event days and all that comes with them. Many thanks Stefan!
After gathering in front of the hotel for a short final briefing and a couple of pictures we set out for a group run to the start of the Hexenstieg trail. From the trail head Simon Gfeller and Michael Wagner led early and would dominate the race over the next thirty-plus hours. Simone and Michael tied the finish with a new course record in 31:24. Steffi Praher had am an amazing race finishing for the ladies in 41:55. Lutz and I had planned a slow deliberate approach to the next couple of days. Our investment in patience paid dividends for us over the long run.
Friday was simply amazing with blue skies and ideal running temperatures. Watching the barometer and the weather over the course of the day it was hard to imagine anything but a wonderful event.
Lutz and I coursed over the route with few worries until we departed the Goetheweg to the west of the Brocken Mountain and got onto the track along the Eckar stream. From here we were challenged by a good bit of deadfall and extremely wet surface conditions caused by snow melt. My thinking at the time… "It's not an ultra unless you have wet, trashed feet!" Passing the Eckartalsperre it was great to look south and know that the Brocken loomed out there.
Highpoints of my 2015 Hexenstieg included a number of different locations and experiences starting with the Brocken. The Brocken is a magical mountain. Yep, it takes some time to get there on foot, particularly if you leave the Goetheweg and head off in the opposite direction to the Eckartalsperre. The approach to the summit up the old Kolonnenweg is in and of itself a gut check. Upon finally arriving, Lutz introduced me to the Brocken Bahnhof Gastaette which was a real treat. A bowl of pea stew never tasted better!
Unlike 2014 I was not hurting as badly as I had in the past when coursing to the Hotel Bodeblick. The course travels 21KM from Ruebeland to Thale and the turnaround point. This year I was more anxious than not to pass through Treseburg and close on Thale and an opportunity to reset for my approach to the second half.
Die Sonne versinkt, The sun goes down,
der Himmel wird Pink. the sky turns pink.
Die Nacht beginnt, The night begins,
dein Leben macht wieder Sinn. your life makes sense again.

The aid station in Thale run by Gabi, Simone and Simone's husband was phenomenal! Here we had the opportunity to shower, switch out or take on additional gear/clothing, sleep and eat. I took advantage of the station and did some preventative maintenance on my feet, changed tee-shirts and ate. I did not sleep. I also committed my largest mistake of the 2015 Hexenstieg by not picking up my Gore-Tex jacket and rain pants. Looking back this was a distinctly amateur mistake having now hiked and run in the Harz for going on six years.
From the aid station at Thale Lutz and I headed up to the Hexentanzplatz enroute to the aid station at Treseburg. Going back out we didn't spend much time at the Hotel Bodeblick only enough to check in, grab a bite and a drink and we were on our way through the night to Hasselfelde. Oh the night… It's funny what happens within the orb of light cast by a headlamp. I can't say that I experienced any hallucinations this first night, but do recall going deep within and very nearly, if not actually sleeping while we moved.
Saturday morning we arrived in Hasselfelde and instead of visiting the Total Gas Station we stopped at a bakery and had a fantastic breakfast – probably the best coffee I had all weekend! From breakfast we faced another 20KM trek to Mandelholz and the Hotel Gruene Tanne. We arrived in Mandelholz in time for lunch – my tanks definitely needed a fill up prior to the 19KM stretch to our second drop bag at Saint Andreasberg.
The stretch between Mandelholz and Saint Andreasberg was one of the most challenging for me mentally. The Wendeltreppe just to the west of the Rinderstall and just shy of the aid station was physically challenging, but not the cause of my difficulty. Moving into Saint Andreasberg I was mentally spent and having sever motivation issues. Adding to my difficulties was the fact that it had started raining and was not to stop doing so for much of the remainder of the race.
The aid station at Saint Andreasberg afforded me an opportunity to again maintain my feet, eat and restock from my second drop bag. Lutz and I did not remain long in order to work through the remaining 41KMs left on the course. The rain, exhaustion and cold really began to take a toll on me at this point. With our pace I was unable to gain or retain any warmth. I cursed myself for not packing or wearing my Gore-Tex kit. While transiting the alternate route around the Oderteich I told Lutz that I would either need to drop from the race or dramatically increase our pace. He told me to take off on my own, which although unhappy about leaving Lutz, I did.
The approach up the Bruchberg and Wolfswarter provided me the ideal opportunity to gain some heat as it was steep and rough, following the course of a creek bed. My movement to the Wolfswarter was relatively uneventful until I arrived at the summit. Lovely Harzer weather brought in very strong winds which were pushing sleet and snow almost horizontally. The hiking stamp station on the Wolfswarter was one of our check points and required either a stamp or a photo of the stamp station. In 2014 we searched to no end to locate the stamp station. With the weather closing in and getting worse I decided to simply take a picture of the Wolfswarter summit and move back down as quickly as I could. Picture taken I began my decent down the Oberer Bruchbergweg to the next aid station at Altenau. The transit down the Oberer Bruchbergweg was eerie as about half way through the fog moved in and rapidly reduced my scope of vision.
Rolling into Altenau and the self-serve aid station at the Hotel Sachsenross I was filled with a bit of trepidation knowing what awaited me over the course and the night itself. Locating the Sachsenross was no issue. In 2014 Lutz, Andreas and I spent literally hours wondering around Altenau attempting to locate the street that took us to the 7Km long old rail line that runs between Altenau and Clausthal-Zellerfeld. As I left the aid station I was keenly focused on staying on track to avoid 2014's frustration. Although I initially missed the sharp left hand turn in Altenau (ran 100 meters past it), I quickly doubled back, found the right path and headed out.
The old rail line is known within Hexenstieg circles as the "Bahndamms das grauens" or "Rail Line of Misery". The path is seven kilometers of almost straight going with an ever so slight incline. On any other day it represents an easy run between the two towns. After completing nearly 195KM of movement it represents a significant physical and mental challenge. As I began my movement along it significant fog began to move in closing my visible world in around me even tighter. Going over things in my mind… I had not slept in a darn long time, I was cold, and now I could not see anything but my feet in front of me. "What to do?" MUSIC! I'd carried by IPod with me the entire time and not yet used it. I was alone, in the fog and coursing over the Hexenstieg through the night. Not much of a better opportunity to "Turn on, Tune in and Drop out"! I can't say that my music shortened the transit along the "Bahndamms das grauens", but it sure did make it more interesting. And I can tell you that Timothy Leary would have approved of my state of mind.
I didn't stay long at Jens' in Clausthal-Zellerfeld. I saw Jens, Micha and a couple of other race supporters, but no runners. I had a cup of coffee, dumped my trash and headed out to finish up the last 14KM of the race. The going was foggy and slow getting to Buntenbock because of the fog. I stopped for a BIO call just prior to the village and saw someone coming down off of the ridge line I'd just left. When they got down to where I was standing we greeted one another and much to my surprise it was Lutz! Our reunion was perfectly timed to head into Freiheit and Osterode together.
My 2015 take-aways... (These are presented now after having had the opportunity to consider the Hexenstieg experience for a couple of weeks. Just long enough not to have the pain and bad memories escape me.) Do the Hexenstieg in 2016! I know, I told myself, Lutz and a couple of others that I would take a break from the Hexenstieg. However, 2016 marks the fifth anniversary AND the Hexenstieg is simply an amazing adventure. Don't ever consider the finish of an endurance event until you have one aid station between you and it. I was able to manage time, distance and exhaustion by breaking the race down into the current aid station leg I was on. Nutrition! Nutrition! Nutrition! Food is fuel; you've got to have it to keep going physically and for me it is essential to my positive motivational wellbeing. In an endurance event like the Hexenstieg you require both early, consistently and over the long haul. Before attempting one of Michael Frenz's or a similar event that includes a course that is not marked, know and understand your GPS. Lutz and I discovered some quality features associated with our GPS that ensured we didn't stray too far off of the race course. Weather happens – it is neither good nor bad, it just is. Waste little time and energy lamenting about this and instead focus on aspects within your control such as suitable clothing and gear.
The 2015 Hexenstieg was a phenomenal event! It represents one of Europe's toughest endurance events with a small, familiar starting field, super organization and volunteer support. Count me in for 2016!

We served Jambalaya at our Purple, Green, and Gold dinner, but it also makes a great dish for a hurricane party. Feel free to tweak the ingredients. The best jambalaya is generally made from whatever-you-can-find, cooked in rice.
1 lbs 16-24 count shrimp peeled, de-veined shrimp, coarsely chopped
1/2 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, diced
1 tablespoon slap ya mamma or comparable seasoning
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped green bell peppers
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
3 bay leaves
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons hot sauce
1 1/2 cups long grain rice
3 1/2 cups chicken stock
1/2 pound Andouille sausage, sliced
Chopped green onion for garnish
Combine the shrimp, chicken and cajun seasoning in a bowl and toss to coat evenly. Set aside to rest.
Heat the oil over in a large, heavy pot over medium heat. Add the onions, peppers and celery, salt and pepper and cook, stirring, for 10 minutes, until softened.
Add the garlic, tomatoes, bay leaves, Worcestershire and hot sauces.
Stir in the rice then slowly add the stock. Bring the rice mixture to a simmer, cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until most of the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes.
Stir in the shrimp and chicken mixture, and the sausage. Cover and cook for 10 minutes longer. Turn off the heat and allow the jambalaya to continue to steam 10 minutes longer before serving.

ET Now: There are reports that cigarettes and pan masala are going to cost more in Uttar Pradesh (UP) following the hike in the VAT rate by the state government. Do you think this clampdown is going to disturb volumes for ITC? We have already seen what the government clampdown or rather the health ministry clampdown on cigarette pricing has actually done to volumes for ITC?
Mayuresh Joshi: Yes, the impact will be huge as far as the volumes are concerned for a lot of the cigarette majors including ITC. Clearly, the volume degrowth that we have seen in the past few quarters — with the product prices increasing across states —might just keep on happening country-wide. So, the volume degrowth might be quite evident on stock like ITC as far as the cigarette volumes are concerned.
However, the price increases is more or less offsets the kind of loss that they are making in terms of how the volume degrowth has taken place.
So the demand inelasticity obviously stays in cigarette business, but ITC has been very conscious. The management has been very clear to grow its other businesses, but clearly it is going to take time because cigarette still forms a major component as far as bottom line is concerned.
Meanwhile, valuation-wise, the counter looks extremely attractive. One really needs to understand how the impact on the P&L might happen as far as ITC's core or absolute numbers are concerned.We do not foresee numbers falling per se because of the price increase that might or actually offset the degrowth in volumes.

Thanks for your comments. A cuimonmty improves because neighbors care and when neighbors care real change happens, regardless if they own or rent (I am a renter and officer of BWNA). Based on the turn out at our meetings and events, this cuimonmty cares. As long as that's the case we will never give up on making improvements here! It can not happen over-night but we can not wait for others to create the change we want to see here. We hope you will come to our next meeting and invite you to participate in our upcoming events, we encourage everyone to participate in Alliance activities because our strength is in numbers and Birches West certainly has the numbers!

I thought there would be dreffient classes every weeknight at 5pm, 6pm, and 7pm? I was planning to attend the 5pm classes after work but this schedule doesn't show any 5pm classes, and only one 6pm class on Tuesday. I am disappointed. Last year you advertised a whole mess of classes daily and at several times. Please, aerobics classes at 5pm. Or, a mix of aerobics, yoga, and pilates at 5 pm. (5:15 would be better since many of us leave the office at 5) Thanks!

Nonstandard Techniques: Socializing
As a leader, you should expect your staff to do their jobs and work in harmony. If you had to stop and read that sentence again, you probably have leadership or managerial experience. Getting a staff to work in harmony, or gung ho, is easier said than done.
Plain English : Gung ho is a Chinese term meaning "work together." The term was first adopted by U.S. Marines in the 1940s.
Using humor is one way to keep an organization in good spirits. Another way is to recognize people as individuals and to acknowledge that they have a life outside the organization.
You can do this by organizing semiregular social gatherings for your group. Even something as casual as declaring each Friday morning bagel day can produce the desired effect. Giving your team the green light to communicate outside the context of their jobs will help to build camaraderie and relax the atmosphere.
How to Encourage Socialization
Large corporations often host holiday parties to reward employees for a job well done. However, there's no need to wait until December. Here are some ideas for encouraging organized socialization in your group:
Breakfast on the boss.
Once a week, or once a month, spring for bagels or doughnuts and/or coffee for your staff.
Timeout for birthdays.
Each month, have one small afternoon gathering for everyone in the organization who celebrates a birthday that month.
Make friends with newcomers.
Encourage older employees to take a new employee out to lunch. New employees can often feel like outsiders. Jump-start their inclusion in the workforce by giving them the opportunity to cultivate friendships with other employees.
BBQ on the boss.
If you have a small enough staff and feel comfortable with it, invite your staff to your house for a barbecue. However, both you and your staff will feel better if you set up rules. For instance, instead of merely saying that the barbecue begins at 7 P.M., say the barbecue will last from 7 P.M. to 9 P.M. That way, they won't feel guilty for leaving and you won't have anyone in your house until 2 A.M.
How Not to Encourage Socialization
Although some social outlets are a good thing, make sure they remain the exception rather than the rule. Your group needs to continue to identify the workplace as just that: a place where work is done.

San Antonio Plan to Fit Student IDs with RFID Hits Snags
The hack of the San Antonio's school district website over the weekend is only the latest headache to hit the school system since it announced a plan last year to insert RFID tracking chips into identification cards carried by students in order to enable real-time tracking while on school grounds. An area teen took credit for the hack, which was allegedly accomplished with the help of the Anonymous hacker collective, and said that it was done to protest the erosion of the privacy rights of students enrolled in Northside district schools.
According to the perpetrator, who said he was 16 years old, the hack was accomplished on Saturday, and CBS Houston confirmed that the website was down on Sunday. There's no official determination of the cause of the outage from the district. Pascual Gonzalez, the district spokesman, said the investigation is ongoing.
Starting this fall, all students at John Jay High School and Anson Jones Middle School are required to carry identification cards embedded with a microchip. They are tracked by the dozens of electronic readers installed in the schools' ceiling panels. Northside has been testing a "radio frequency identification" tracking system for the two schools to increase attendance in order to secure more state funding, officials have said. The program, which kicked off at the beginning of this school year, eventually could be used at all of Northside's 112 campuses, officials have said. The district is the fourth largest in Texas with more than 97,000 students.
The RFID cards are also subject to a lawsuit from a student at John Jay who said that carrying a chipped ID interferes with her religious liberty. Andrea Hernandez said that her religion equates the ID with the Biblical "Mark of the Beast," a symbol supposedly used by the Antichrist during Armageddon to mark unbelievers. As a compromise, Principal Robert Harris offered to issue the student an ID without the chip, but the gesture was rejected by both the student and her family.
According to Andrea's father Steve said that he rejected the unchipped ID because the he couldn't abide by the conditions attached to it.
"He told me in a meeting that if my daughter would proudly wear her student ID card around her neck so everyone could see, he would be able to quietly remove her chip from her student ID card," Steve Hernandez explained to WND.
He added, "He went on to say as part of the accommodation my daughter and I would have to agree to stop criticizing the program and publicly support it. I told him that was unacceptable because it would imply an endorsement of the district's policy and my daughter and I should not have to give up our constitutional rights to speak out against a program that we feel is wrong."
Hernandez filed suit after Harris said that Andrew would have to be transferred out of John Jay if she refused to wear the ID badge. Last week, a judge sided with Andrea and her father and granted a restraining order preventing her from being transferred.

Did you hear the president say that we are going to find a cure for cancer during his speech Wednesday night? This was one of the most important speeches regarding the goals of this nation and President Barack Obama included finding a cure for cancer. Kennedy said the same thing about getting a man on the moon and we were successful. President Obama's declaration is significant. In 1971 President Nixon declared war on cancer. Since then we have been winning battles but we just can't win the war. It takes renewed commitment to finally win the longest raging war ever and for America, I believe that this is it. President Obama lost his mother to ovarian cancer. He knows how great a foe cancer really is to the welfare of Americans. His children lost a grandmother and America lost a woman great enough to have raised a president.
This new administration is tapping into the concept that illness and lack of healthcare drains capitol. For individuals, corporations and the country, cancer is a huge expense. In my home with myself battling breast cancer and my husband recently battling prostate cancer we know more than anyone how this disease can impact a family's hopes dreams and security. When – not if- we find a cure for cancer, lives will change drastically.
Those of us that have survived breast cancer need to stand with the president and make a renewed vow that this disease will not only be beaten, but eradicated. Cancer doesn't care if you are a Republican or a Democrat. It doesn't see if you have white, black, pink, brown or yellow skin. Breast cancer is satisfied to claim victims from all economic classes and it certainly isn't picky about age. This is a terrorist, pure and simple. We don't know when it will hit or where it will hit but when someone is diagnosed with breast cancer it is like a bomb going off in the middle of your home; nothing is the same and no one feels safe.
Things are changing in America. We are all waking up. Some are angry at the direction we are taking with the economic bailout, some are relieved and many are confused. Truthfully though, we can't stand on the sidelines when it comes to beating breast cancer. I am sure we can all agree that cancer is a good target for our efforts and dollars.
Say it to someone today; "We will find a cure for breast cancer!"

Fortunately, this subject comes up a lot. Women who've been ttc (trying to conceive) for a long time finally find themselves pregnant and they're shocked it's even possible. It takes a while for it to sink in and then, once it does, come the fears that something will go wrong. I think those of us who have gone through infertility are much less likely to take a healthy pregnancy for granted.
Apparently, at least from my experience, you're more likely to bleed when you're pregnant from IVF. This could be because sometimes more than one embryo begins to implant and the other(s) "miscarry" early on or just because the hormones aren't natural (because the corpus luteum or "yellow body" doesn't always produce hormones to support the pregnancy as it would in a natural cycle). So with me, I was finally pregnant, then I had horrible, scary bleeding (cramping and all) and only after that I saw the heartbeat for the first time. It made the first months very stressful. This happened to me in both my first and second IVF pregnancies (see my story). In both, it was suspected that I had a "miscarriage" though the pregnancies continued to full term, resulting in healthy babies.
So you're pregnant. And then you get nauseous. And you're supposed to be so thrilled that you're pregnant that you don't even feel the nausea. In fact, it's a pleasure. You love every minute of it. You're proud when you rush to vomit. You're over the moon when you can't sleep because you've got morning sickness so badly... except... um... it isn't really all that much fun, even when you really waited for the pregnancy. Even when you made a thousand pacts with G-d about what you would do if you were ever lucky enough to finally be on your way to becoming a mom. You still feel sick as a dog and you'd really like to feel better. Soon. Now. You get the same stretch marks from pregnancy whether it's IUI, IVF or natural. You feel tired and swollen and heavy toward the end of the pregnancy whether you've waited 5 years or 5 minutes... Is it legitimate to complain? Of course it is. Just like it's going to be legitimate when your contractions are killing you or when you're going to be tired if your baby keeps you up all
It seems like (and is) such good fortune to finally have a baby after you've wanted one for so long, but I wonder if it makes the experience of being a parent a different experience? Maybe you're more likely to take a long period of maternity leave to be with your baby or you feel more protective than other parents do. Maybe while you waited to have the baby you had a lot of time to dream about the things you want for him, her or them... and then those dreams lead you to do more things with your child than you would have otherwise. Maybe you had time to save money and you have better financial resources so that you can provide additional enrichment to your child. Maybe you're more patient. Maybe there's no difference at all...
I'm starting my 35th week tomorrow. My ankles are so swollen that I was surprised I was able to put on my shoes this morning.

I saw a great asymmetrical power pole (electrical?) that had rounded smooth curved full bodied beams that formed the shape of the sign of Neptune, but was off-center with one part of the Neptunian folk being lower than the other. The pole could be described as being rounded and "fat" or of a rounded kind of "fatness," if that makes any sense for those wishing to envision this particular characteristic.
I will leave full interpretation of this dream for another time, but suffice to say that the dream, again which lasted far less than a second, may have to do with power grids going down as we recently witnessed this week in Florida, USA.
Perhaps the dream is saying that electrical power failures will continue to occur in the USA and around the world to a very strong degree that has never been seen before.
The dream could also be pointing to the fall in political power of certain great leaders, people, organization(s) and/or countries, supported by Jupiter being in a "fall position" in Capricorn (exalted in Cancer) currently at 16 degrees and 11 minutes of Capricorn in the Tropical Zodiac.
The very strong Neptunian aspects of the dream, as symbolized by the Greek God Poseidon, need to be considered carefully as well with respect to its implication for the seas, rivers, lakes, lake dams and oceans of the earth, basically anything having to do with WATER in all its forms: steam, snow, storms and ice. Poseidon reported only to Zeus and is the ruler of the oceans and earthquakes; hence, we should expect that earthquakes are involved as well, coming from the seas, and that we may soon see some very big earthquakes occurring around the world within the next two weeks, i.e., 14 days to March 15, 2008, especially in southeast Japan and off-shore California, Canada and Central America, but other off-shore places are likely as well.
At the time of this dream, the Sun was at 11° Pisces 09' in the Tropical Zodiac, and 17° Aquarius 11' in the Sidereal Zodiac. Uranus being in mutual reception to Uranus makes this a more powerful combination. At the time of the Dream, Jupiter and Pluto are in Capricorn in the 12th House, meaning that power, or the powers that be are secretly at work! With Mercury, Venus, Neptune and the North Node rising one can expect 'electrifying surprises" in business, the economy, partnerships and earthquakes.
IMPACT ON LABOR NEGOTIATIONS: Pallas Athena in Pisces in the 2nd House squaring Mars at a critical and extremely sensitive 29° of Gemini in the 6th House means that labor, in negotiating with those who have financial resources, will make serious strategic blunders and mistakes that will cause them to lose a lot of money at this time (four day period ending Tuesday, March 4th, 2008). The reverse is also true that those who have financial resources can lose a lot as well to labor interest though ill timing of not coming to agreement sooner.
I will end here and return to the interpretation of this dream at another time.
Comments are welcome!

My friend and I were chatting about genealogy when I mentioned that my one of my ancestors might have belonged to a Satanic cult.
"Wow," she gushed. "Everyone hopes to find an interesting story in their family tree, but you really hit the jackpot!"
Well, yes and no. The rumor came from a family interview about an abusive childhood, something no one wants to find in her family's past. But once I heard about the cult, I became determined to learn more. The tools on Ancestry helped me piece together the story. I'm now writing a book-length version of that story, and the ripple effect it's had on four generations of women.
Climbing the Gnarled Branches of Your Own Family Tree
In talking with others about my book, I've learned that I'm not alone. Most families have a strange secret or two: a ghost story, a mysterious death or a dark rumor that's been passed down through generations. These secrets contain some of genealogy's most compelling tales. They can also be nearly impossible to verify. Exploring them can be fun, but it can also strain your sanity.
Hopefully you don't have a Satanic cult in your family tree. But when researching your own genealogical legends, you can use these five tips to simplify the process.
- Set expectations. Are you trying to solve a murder or just document a story?
It might be rewarding to bring a centuries-old crime to justice. But it's far from easy. Unless you're an experienced investigator or willing to pay for those services, you'll probably end up frustrated. Don't assume that researching your family mystery means you have to crack the case. The evidence you find might never be admissible in court. But if it helps you shape a meaningful narrative, it still has value.
I started my journey with high hopes of cracking cold cases and exposing crime rings. But I had neither the expertise nor the evidence necessary. I eventually refocused my efforts on documenting the story. When I did, the work became much more satisfying.
- Get first-person accounts.
Since the only real "proof" I had of my ancestor's cult involvement lived in anecdotes, I conducted family interviews. I wrote questions beforehand, then used the built-in voice recording app on my iPhone to record the interviews. Finally, I transcribed each interview and uploaded the text file to Ancestry's media gallery.
You can also do this with the new StoryCorps app, which contains sample questions, recording functionality and even the option to upload your interview to the U.S. Library of Congress. If you do, be sure to save a text file for your Ancestry family tree. You can then use it as a source for relevant names, dates, and other details.
- Use Ancestry to collect relevant names, dates and locations.
I started my cult research with a single surname. My family member knew the cult had been led by a distant relative of my great-grandmother. She could only vaguely recall his last name. With this clue, I explored the more obscure branches of my family tree: second marriages, step-siblings and second cousins. Eventually I found a branch with the remembered surname, and then a college yearbook photo of a man who fit the description. From there, I combed through newspaper archives to learn about his career, hobbies and community involvement.
- Connect with others.
Ancestry has a large collection of message boards with topics such as Crime and Folklore, Legends & Family Stories. Members on these and other boards gave me helpful tips and suggestions. One person said she'd researched a similar cult rumor that turned out to reference the KKK. Another helped me understand how the occult played a role in my ancestors' religious background. I came away from the message boards with a much broader understanding of the story.
- Dig deeper.
If you do end up with a murder mystery or unsolved crime that deserves closer investigation, you have lots of resources available to you. I found the Investigative Reporter's Handbook, by Brand Houston, helpful for tracking down police and court records. (Investigative Reporters and Editors, Inc. also has several free resources for non-members looking to learn more.)
You can also hire a professional researcher. AncestryProGenealogists can help you set goals and track down records. They'll even provide a research package at the end of your project, with a binder of documents, suggestions for future research and a flash drive of digital files.
Whether you do end up cracking the case or just gaining a better understanding of your lineage, you'll likely have a good time and find lots of interesting stories along the way.
What secrets and mysteries have you uncovered in your family tree?
Kelly Kautz is writing a memoir about her genealogical research into a Satanic cult. Read more on her blog at TheSkeletonClub.com.

'The Walking Dead' Season 7 Full-Length Trailer Is a Bloodbath (VIDEO)
Who did Negan kill at the end of the controversial Season 6 finale of The Walking Dead? Well, we're getting closer to the answer, albeit at the expense of having a trailer that shows us that much content from the new season. Seriously, this might be the least we've ever seen of the principal cast in a San Diego Comic Con trailer.
Of course, this is kind of the trade-off with the cliffhanger. If you're going to do something like that, then you really can't show people like Rick, Michonne, Maggie or anyone else who could potentially be Negan's victim, since it'd pretty much spoil the surprise. Still, we do get plenty of footage of walkers getting killed, humans once again fighting conflict from within, and a HUGE CGI TIGER. Oh, and Lucille, Negan's barbed wire baseball bat, absolutely drenched in blood. If anything is clear about The Walking Dead Season 7, it's that we're in for carnage. Watch the video below:

Long-distance Caregiving Simplified
Caregiver in Manalapan Township NJ
If you're a family caregiver, but live an hour or more away from your loved one, you have some unique challenges. You may even wonder how you can effectively do your job as caregiver when you're not there. Relax, there are plenty of options for long-distance caregiving. They can run the gamut, including everything from coordinating services with others to getting respite services for a primary caregiver who is local. Want to know where to begin?
- The first thing to realize is you play an important role, just one that's different from someone who is in the same community. So why not get started by setting up a family meeting—either in person, or via phone or video conference. Everyone should discuss their goals and feelings and be willing to take on some of the chores and responsibilities involved in having an aging loved one. Someone should take notes and get them to everyone after the conference, remembering to include your family member in the decision-making process.
- Compile notes and gather up information about your loved one's condition, along with any legal or financial paperwork. Are there any issues that need resolving? Have names and contact information for life or disability insurance companies, along with policy numbers.
- Research your loved one's medical conditions so that you have some idea of what they're going through, how the illness progresses, how to avert problems or crises, etc. Also put together a list of all medical providers, contact information, health insurance information, etc. It might make it easier to talk with your family member's doctors also, but because of privacy laws you will need to have written authorization before they can talk with you. Keep a copy of that authorization in case it's needed later. Once that's done, speak with them on a regular basis. Include your loved one's primary caregiver in the calls, too.
- Ask family members and your loved one's friends to help with some things, even if it's just checking in on them regularly or paying them a friendly visit.
- If professional help is needed for things like personal care, meals, medication management, shopping, housekeeping, etc., start interviewing professional caregiver organizations.
- Do what you can long-distance, be it making all phone calls to handle their affairs, paying bills online, etc.
- Set aside time and money in case there is an emergency that comes up or you need to make some other unexpected trip to visit your loved one.
- Stay in touch with your loved one via the many things today's technology offers—whether that's Skyping, emailing, communicating via Facebook, etc. You can also send frequent cards, pictures or home videos of yourself or your family.
- Provide back-up and emotional support for in-person caregivers whenever possible.
- Let go of the guilt for nor being there in person. You're just as valuable where you are.
If the situation warrants, you may be able to get time away under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act.

I did not expect that I would carry the twins this far but here I am, 37 weeks and 6 days today! The pregnancy has been surprisingly smooth, and I am still able to sleep for 7 or 8 hours at night. The worst discomfort I had was PUPPP and a stiff neck, which are still manageable.
So just wondering if anyone knows the risks v. benefits of carrying them over 38 weeks? My doc said there's no definitive research showing either way.

Over the past five years, Sun City has undergone a major facelift. In fact, over R1 billion was spent ensuring the complex was restored to its former glory – and what an incredible change it's made. Sun City has been the go-to destination within the Pilanesberg since opening in December 1979 and with the new changes, Sun City cements itself as one of the most exciting tourist destinations in South Africa.
I was lucky to be one of the first people in the country to experience the new Sun City – and I was certainly impressed with all the changes that were made. The new Sun Central has been cleaned up on the inside – and is really sleek and sophisticated. Sun Central also boasts a South African Hall of Fame honouring South Africa's outstanding sportspeople and performing artists. The original entertainment centre was built at a cost of R30-million and inaugurated on 24 July 1981 by Frank Sinatra.
The conferencing centre was definitely one of my highlights. Not only were the conference rooms kitted out, but there is an upmarket, sophisticated and simplistic vibe to it. If you ever find yourself there, make sure you try their coffee bar 'Stir'.
The Cabanas also got a major revamp and, honestly, it was the hotel that needed it the most. Now, the hotel has a youthful, colourful vibe to it. The rooms are still simple, but they're more comfortable and modern than ever before.
Another hotel that got a revamp was Sun City's main hotel – now called SoHo. The hotel mirrors the renowned Soho destinations located in London and New York which are known for their eclectic vibe and non-stop action. Not only has the casino moved there, but some of the restaurants are now open all the time and it's the home of Sun City's brand new nightclub 'Encore' which, in my opinion, is the most beautiful club in South Africa. SoHo is also the home of Vibes – an awesome new entertainment centre which has some old video games, good food, comedy nights, karaoke and so much more. It is also home to the glamorous new Legends restaurant and the revamped Sun Prive and Prive Salon.
Not much has changed at the Casades besides the addition of The Luma Bar and Lounge and the new Bocado Mediterranean restaurant which replaces the Santorini restaurant. At The Palace, a new VIP gaming experience has been added and has an upgraded breakfast buffet. The Grill Room has also been upgraded with a new lakeside terrace. A stylish new spa will be completed by 2017.
Entertainment wise, there's an awesome new addition with an epic outdoor event area called the Sun Park which is capable of hosting a range of lifestyle events, music festivals and corporate launches. Adrenalin seekers will love Adrenalin Extreme, the new adventure hub, while the entire family can enjoy the two brand new rides at the Valley of Waves water park, Noble's Descent and Ovango. Adventure hub comprises of a range of outdoor activities including Drift Trikes, Hovercrafts, the Accelerator and the Grizzly 4×4 Quad Challenge. For those who would prefer to observe the action, the new The Brew Monkey microbrewery-themed gastro pub and the Food Factory fresh food eatery is just the place to do this.
Lastly, there are more action-packed watersports at Waterworld. The venue now offers the new Kazooma Raceway and Rock Venture Mini Golf with its thrilling Grand-Prix-styled racing go-karts and an adventure golf course that will appeal to all ages.
Michael Farr, Group General Manager for Brand and Communications, says: "Sun City has remained popular since its opening, but we felt it needed a complete overhaul and took the decision to invest over a billion Rand to do just that. We've put this investment into making the resort even more attractive to families, gamblers, convention visitors and a host of new, niche-tourists such as adrenalin-seekers, eco-tourists and millennials." He adds that "We are confident that with this massive refurb and upgrade, Sun City will not only retain its status as South Africa's favourite leisure destination, but will also recapture its place as the premier convention venue in the country."
Sun City has done a remarkable upgrade and it's definitely a place both local and international visitors will enjoy. The resort has always been an incredible place to visit and if you haven't been here since the renovation, make a plan to get here! It'll blow you away!

People ask me what I've seen in Italy and where I'd go back to. The Amalfi Coast is a magical place, I would definitely go back without a doubt…now that I know where the best spots are. Here's where I'd go and why:
A peaceful hill town that is full of luxury accommodations, small alleyways, beautiful gardens, magical restaurants. Perfect for weddings or romantic getaways. Keep in mind this is a very small town and you can't really drive when you get into the town. You need to leave your car outside the town or take the bus from the town of Amalfi.
Capri Town and Anacapri are both stunning and perfect for the traveler that likes the good life, high end brands and people watching. Take the gondola ride up to the top of Anacapri for a fantastic view of the Sorrentine Peninsula, bay of Naples and over to the Amalfi Coast. It is beautiful. The food is incredible, of course. You must try a Caprese sandwich or salad while you're there – after all the word Caprese actually does comes from Capri!
Picture-book perfect town on the hill. It attracts a lot of tourists and you will hear a lot of American and Australian accents. Great shopping and restaurants. I recommend staying away from Positano to get the real experience. Positano is more expensive and will mean you will probably spend a lot more time there. Other places are less expensive and you will explore more of the coast's great restaurants and sights. The Grand Hotel Tritone is a perfect location overlooking the coast. An easy 10 minute water taxi or 15 minute drive will get you to Positano from the hotel. The best of both worlds!

What to do in Palawan (Philippines itinerary)
One week in the Philippines lay behind us and my boyfriend and I could get so many great impressions of the beautiful islands Cebu and Bohol. From whale shark watching and canyoneering in Cebu to a river cruise and the famous Chocolate Hills in Bohol – I can say we were so ready for some beaches.
While the first week was fun and adventurous, we decided to spend the second week in Palawan, mostly calm at the beach in hammocks and sipping cocktails. Sounds good, right?!
So how did we get from Bohol to Palawan? In the morning of our leaving we drove to Bohol's capital Tagbilaran from where we took a ferry (operator: Ocean Jet) to Cebu City. The ride takes usually about 2 hours. When we arrived in Cebu City we took a cab and drove to the airport. With the airline AirSwift we flew directly to El Nido, Palawan. It was easy and we had no problems at all.
Third stop: Palawan
Palawan is the largest province in the country and was chosen the most beautiful island in the world several times. Indeed, Palawan is very beautiful and truly a paradise. Although we arrived in El Nido, one of the bigger cities in Palawan, we didn't stay there. After the touristic hotspots in Cebu and Bohol we wanted our own little paradise far away from the mass. So we decided to stay in a hotel 45 minutes further north from El Nido. And it was a good decision.
If you have quite a lot time, you should do the same, because El Nido is very crowded and full of tourists. We spent one evening in the small town, walked around a little and had our dinner at the Happiness Beach Bar, which was stylish and great. But during the day the beach it totally packed and the water is dirty and oily from the boats. So you can't even swim in there and in Palawan you find much nicer beaches than in El Nido.
Where to stay in Palawan
It was a hard decision where to stay in Palawan. As I said, we didn't really want to stay in El Nido town, but on the other hand we also didn't want to be too far away. So finally we ended up in the Villa Verde Safari. The way either from the airport or from El Nido takes about 45 minutes and you can only go there by car.
We tried it with a tricycle first which was just not possible, because the road is in a terrible condition. Thus I recommend booking the airport shuttle, although it's quite expensive and costs 2.500 PHP (39€/48$) one way. But it's the best option to get there and Palawan is just more expensive than the other islands.
The hotel has a bungalow with two double rooms which is perfect for two people each. Besides this, there is a big villa that offers additional space for more than two people. This is also the place where the owner lives. Although the owner is not very talkative, we could talk to the friendly Filipinos who cooked our meals.
While in the other hotels, we could decide what we would like for breakfast, in this resort you only get Continental breakfast (toast and scrambled eggs). Because I'm not a big fan of eggs in the morning, I asked for pancakes. And although I got them every day, I had the feeling that my wish hasn't been well received.
Anyway, we didn't choose the Villa Verde Safari because of the hosts, but because of the wonderful location. A big plus was the direct entrance to the private beach which was almost always empty. It was so beautiful that we stayed there the whole day swimming, playing with the waves or watching the ocean. Especially by night it was amazing to watch the sky. If it was clear, you could see so many stars that it was almost unusual.
In addition, the hotel offered three hammocks and some beach chairs which were usable for free. So we spent the days playing cards, reading and hanging around. It was amazing to do nothing at all and just come down from the busy everyday life. If you're still looking for some action, you can rent kayaks. We rented one for some hours and it was super cool and so much fun! If you want to look for more hotels on Palawan, then use the search box below. It will bring you directly to booking.com.
What to see & do
I can only speak of El Nido, but that's where the most people go anyway. You can book a huge range of tours in the many shops spread all over the town. So it won't be too difficult to find a spot. Besides a 3 or 5-day adventure tour to Coron, the island hopping tours A, B, C and D are also very popular and common. If you have not much time, you can also do combo tours like A and B or A and C in one day.
Actually we loved especially tour A, which was a mix of beautiful nature, beaches and a bit of snorkeling. It was amazing and I can highly recommend it. Anyway, here I listed every tour and what they included, so you can choose for yourself what fits best for you.
Note: When you book a tour, you need to pay an environment fee which is 200 PHP (3€/4$) each person and lasts for ten days. So if you want to book more than one tour, you should keep the receipe in your wallet.
Tour A
The tour costs 1200 PHP (19€/23$) and takes about seven hours. It's wonderful if you love beaches and lagoons, but it's the most popular tour so it can be quite touristic. You should also bring bathing shoes, because you have to walk over rocks.
Big & Small Lagoon: Beautiful scenery and not reachable by boats. But you can rent kayaks for an additional fee, which I recommend, because it's awesome to see the lagoons from the inside.
Simizu Beach: We had lunch here and it's a beautiful small and lovely beach where you can also have the chance for some snorkeling (although most of the corals are dead by now).
Secret Lagoon: There is a little hole which you have to enter to get to the Secret Lagoon. The water in there consists of 70% sweet water and 30% salt water.
Seven Commando Beach: This beach is awesome and offers fine white sand and turquoise water. It's also great for snorkeling, because you can do it a little better than at Simizu Beach.
Tour B
This tour offers beautiful caves and divine islands that are just waiting to be discovered. It costs 1300 PHP (20€/25$) and takes round about six hours.
Popolcan Island: This island is a good snorkeling spot and the water is so clear and blue that you just want to jump in. But be careful, there could be some jellies.
Snake Island: Here you can hike up a hill to see the snake-looking island from the top and have a beautiful view over the landscape.
Cudugnon & Cathedral Caves: These caves are beautiful and worth seeing if you're into caves. The Cathedral Cave is not accessible though, but you can still take pictures.
Pinagbuyutan Island: This beautiful island is the perfect spot to enjoy some time at the beach or to go snorkeling. But also here can be some jellies.
Tour C
Wonderful beaches, snorkeling and a beautiful landscape – that's what you can expect of tour C which offers a similar landscape to tour A. It costs 1400 PHP (21€/27$) and takes about 7 hours. You should also bring bathing shoes here, because you have to walk over sharp rocks.
Hidden Beach: Hidden behind rocks you can find the Hidden Beach. You need to swim there, but it's very beautiful and if you have luck, you can have the whole beach for yourself.
Colasa Beach: The Colasa Beach is not just the place for having lunch, at the left rock formation you can also snorkle and see lots of fishes and even corals that are still alive.
Secret Beach: You need to swim through a little opening to get to this little paradise, but it's worth it, because you find there a wonderful lagoon with the Secret Beach.
Matinloc Shrine: It's an abandoned site and just open for tourists. But the site is secondary. The tour boats stop here just for the incredible view.
Helicopter Island: It's a beautiful island that looks like a helicopter from far away and offers a fine sand beach. It's also nice for some snorkeling.
Tour D
If you want a tour off the beaten track, tour D might be a good choice. It costs 1200 PHP (19€/23$) and also takes about 6 hours. But due to the fact that not many tourists want to do this tour, it can happen that you might need to book a private tour.
Cadlao Lagoon: This little lagoon is less crowded than the Small, Big and Secret Lagoon and a wonderful alternative. You can expect turquoise water and quiet.
Paradise Beach: It's a true paradise that offers a wonderful fine sand beach. Behind the rocks at the left side of the beach, you can also go snorkeling very well.
Pasandigan Beach: That's a beach where you can enjoy the view of the sea in a great atmosphere. But snorkeling is not really possible, though.
Natnat Beach: This private beach is a wonderful stop for a little rest – and to enjoy some lunch.
Bukal Beach: It's a nice beach and although there is a lot of seagrass, you can still go snorkeling and see many fishes.
People say tour A is the best, followed by tour C, B and at last tour D. But I think it's a personal interest in what you want to see and we wanted to visit the lagoons and do some snorkeling so as I mentioned above tour A was the best tour for us.
But you should be aware that at the beaches there are lots of boats string together, so these tours are very touristic and the beaches mostly crowded. Nevertheless, I hope this list will help you if you decide to visit El Nido and also want to do island hopping.
So that was our last stop in the Philippines before we headed back to Germany. All in all, I can say that the three islands – Cebu, Bohol and Palawan – were a great decision and each of them was beautiful in its way. While Cebu and Bohol are adventurous and more for the fun factor, Palawan has fabulous beaches and a fantastic scenery.
If you haven't checked out part I and II, you can do it now to learn more about Cebu and Bohol. Have you ever been to Palawan and did you do one of these tours? Would love to hear what you guys think!
