Matt and Nicki were very gracious. They made the whole experience feel like you are at home. Everything was warm and inviting. Bed was fantastic to sleep in. They provided history about and places to go see/eat at in the area. Just as advertised, Nicki took us to see their animals on the farm. Even at night, away from all the city lights, the stars and Milky Way can be seen! Really a lot a fun. Would highly recommend it and would enjoy returning again.Richard2016-10-23T00:00:00Z
After driving all day, we arrived a little after 11:00pm. It was so nice of Mark to welcome us at this late hour. The room was exactly as described in the listing. The bed was very comfortable. In the morning we got up and had coffee with Mark and his children, who were adorable. They have pigs and chickens out in the back, and we had a nice visit with them before we packed up and got on the road again. This is a perfect place to stop for the night if you are traveling thru this part of the country. Very nice people. Very quaint environment. Very comfortable and enjoyable!Anh2016-10-21T00:00:00Z
My husband stayed here for several weeks on business. It was very comfortable and the hosts were warm and kind. A perfect situation for his busy schedule; the amenities, the hosts and the location just what he needed.Liz2017-02-10T00:00:00Z
This is such a friendly place - I just really loved it. It was so quiet, and the bed was pretty much the most comfortable in which I have ever slept. I am so impressed with this family and all that they do, and how welcome they made me feel. It was about a 20 minute drive from my workplace, but driving anywhere from there is so easy and relaxing, and it gave me time to prepare my thoughts for the day and to decompress coming back at night. I am so happy that my daughters set me up with this for my extended business trip - being with Nicki, Matt and the kids really helped to keep me from feeling so isolated, as I would have in a hotel, yet they were very, very respectful of my privacy and my need for sleep. All in all, it was a terrific experience and I made some wonderful new friends!Philip2017-04-09T00:00:00Z
The room was nice, but as soon as you walked into the home, the smell of garbage was overwhelming. The hosts were welcoming and kind. It was secluded, but that is no issue as I was not interested in shopping or anything like that.Cary2017-02-20T00:00:00Z
Stayed here with my girlfriend for Thanksgiving and everything about our stay was simply idyllic. Totally modern refurbished private suite in a quaint old school, lovely family and pets, all on a rustic farm complete with a variety of adorable animals. Nicki and her family made us feel like we were at home and taught us so much about their lives. It also happened to be my birthday and they gave us a kitten to take home! We'll never forget our time with them.Zack2016-11-25T00:00:00Z
We arrived late but the room and restored school house were beautiful and comfortable. It was conveniently near the Jonny Cash museum and easy to find. The coffee was great in the morning and Nicki even sent us out with a gallon of water for our travels. Thanks guys and good luck!Jonathan2016-10-15T00:00:00Z
Nicki was an excellent hostess. She was friendly and very helpful. The bedroom, bathroom, and sitting area were neat and clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The area was quiet and was obviously completely safe. We appreciated the fact that we could park just outside our window. (That was important to us because we don't like to park on the street or very far from our room.) It was a pleasant experience to stay in what used to be a school building and is now their home and farm. (When we arrived and pressed the doorbell button, we heard an old school bell ring. Very appropriate!) The kids, Charlie and Agatha, are very cute and friendly. They also have cute little Alfred, but he's only one year old. On the morning of our departure, we asked if we could see their farm, and Matt graciously took us on a tour. He explained the history of the school, and he described all of their farm animals. We visited the goats, donkeys, pigs, chickens, guineas, and Henry the dog. It was a short but interesting tour. If we're ever in that area again, we would be happy to stay there again. Thank you, Nicki and Matt. Dianna and JamesJames2016-10-29T00:00:00Z

Alicia is great very easy to talk to. Great for long stays or a one night stopper. Bedroom gets plenty of daylight in the morning. Theres lot of space for you to feel comfortable and roam around. You dont have to be secluded to your room.Victor2017-02-18T00:00:00Z
Alicia was very welcoming and flexible! One of the nicer homes in this neighborhood. This is a pet home which was a little unexpected. Overall good host and nice home, and Alicia was available for anything I needed!Mallory2017-01-06T00:00:00Z
Very comfortable places with lots of space. Alicia is always available if you need her and leaves you on your own to enjoy if you don'tJake2017-01-18T00:00:00Z
The host canceled this reservation 7 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.Anna2017-03-12T00:00:00Z
The room was good for the price. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom beside the room was shared with another permanent renter and did not have a shower. There was another bathroom downstairs with a shower. The permanent renter's dogs entered my room twice unannounced with the door shut.Ashley2017-01-29T00:00:00Z
Paragould, 阿肯色州, 美國
We really enjoyed our stay. The house worked out much better than a hotel. It came with everything ready to go (towels, sheets, dishes). Jason responded quickly to any questions we had. I would definitely rent this place again.G2016-02-04T00:00:00Z
Jason is a great communicator and we would recommend his property for anyone traveling to the Kennett area. We were pleasantly surprised to find the fridge stocked with soda and bottled water as well as a goody box sitting on the kitchen table. The house is very roomy and offered the right amount of privacy for everyone staying there. We also made use of the included wifi connection since our cell service in Kennett is less than ideal. We're originally from Kennett and still have family there so we'll definitely book the property again!Jerry2016-12-18T00:00:00Z
The house was very clean and the instructions on the white board made me feel at ease.Jennifer2016-10-20T00:00:00Z
We loved staying at this house! Clean, comfortable, and lots of amenities included. Couldn't have asked for a better house! We are looking forward to staying here again.Khara2016-03-27T00:00:00Z
I would highly recommend staying not at Jason's place! We stayed for a hunting trip and there was plenty of beds and space for everyone and a great place to relax after hunting. Jason and his wife were very friendly and accommodating. If your hunting near Kennett stay here instead of a hotel!Kendrick2016-01-03T00:00:00Z
Great stay! Jason was very flexible in some changes to our length of stay and check out. Very well stocked and tidy home!Anthony2016-07-12T00:00:00Z
I don't think there are enough adjectives to describe just how perfect our stay was! The home is cute and very clean, and comfortable! We loved the ease of having a keyless entry, the snacks and beverages that Jason provided, the decor (LOVE the lighted 'Welcome' sign in the kitchen), the neighborhood - we didn't want to leave! We will definitely stay here the next time we make the trek to Kennett!Cindie2016-10-23T00:00:00Z
Best Airbnb experience I've had. The place was tidy, spacious, and very pleasant. Host was flexible and courteous.Kelley2016-01-06T00:00:00Z

The home was very cozy and a good place to stop for a day as we took a break from our longer journey.Jennifer2015-12-21T00:00:00Z
The Apartment was just as described. Audra made us feel right at home. She came over upon check in and dropped off some movies and a sheet with local places to eat. She was very accommodating!!! I have stayed at several places and this is by far my favorite. Apartment was very clean as were the beds and linen. A++++Tonja2016-09-29T00:00:00Z
Great hospitality, great location and phenomenal place to stay, thank you again for letting me stay at your apartment Lane and Audra, cheers.Marsel2017-01-16T00:00:00Z
We had the best experience ever, this place is Paragould's best kept secret!Tangela2016-12-27T00:00:00Z
Audra has been a wonderful host. She is easy to get hold of and pleasant to work with. We had to do last minute date change and she has graciously accommodated us. The check in was easy and house was very clean and tastefully furnished. The whole stay was flawless. Thank you and we will definitely come back!Anne2016-11-12T00:00:00Z
This is a nice, clean place and much larger than we expected. Great for groups or families. It is a good location in Paragould with easy access to surrounding restaurants and shops. Only main issue we had was noise. The floorboards are noisy if there are people upstairs - it was loud enough to wake us all up at 4AM. Without upstairs tenants this would be a 5-star place that I would go back to but I would hesitate if I knew there were people upstairs.Justin2016-12-30T00:00:00Z
The apartment was great and just as listed/pictured. The furniture was comfortable and decor beautiful, we really felt at home. The location was very quiet and the host provided helpful insight on the proper operation of the appliances and fixtures. We highly recommended this place to other relatives (who were staying in local hotels) when they return in the future to Paragould AR. Audra and Lane thanks again for your outstanding service! CW4 (US Army Retired) John Moore and familyJohn2016-11-21T00:00:00Z
Lane and Audra were very welcoming. She personally called to ensure that everything was going alright with my stay as well as to give some advice for the area as I am from Pennsylvania. The house was perfectly described and was very relaxing. It was well worth the small commute to meet our hunting guides! I am already planning on a trip next year and booking the house again!Nick 2016-02-05T00:00:00Z

Wow better than staying at a hotel! This Air Bnb looked better than the pictures, and the pictures were amazing! Outside of our house, the best night sleep my wife and I ever had! Located on farm house property this location was warm and inviting with a spectacular view especially at sundown and sunset! The hosts could not have been more welcoming. They came by and helped us get a little outside fire going when we were having trouble because of the wind! If six stars were available for reviews this would be the place!!! Thank you Lindley and Susan!Luis2017-04-07T00:00:00Z
This place was amazing and we will be staying here again, for sure. Hosts were spectacular and we thoroughly enjoyed our time on the farm. Also, the Sun Ridge Farms products are amazing!Meri Whitney and Barrett2017-04-02T00:00:00Z
A wonderful place to stay when visiting Jonesboro and the surrounding areas. We especially enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen, animals, and views. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet, peaceful place to stay.Noah2017-03-09T00:00:00Z
Great, quiet location. The hosts are extremely accommodating and make every effort to make sure your stay is enjoyable. Everything about this stay was as advertised with no surprises. Everything was handled perfectly.Mike2017-03-23T00:00:00Z
Beautiful location and grounds, Susan & Lindley are fantastic hosts..you will enjoy your stay!Donna2017-02-10T00:00:00Z
Exactly as described.Norma2016-12-19T00:00:00Z
We absolutely loved staying here. We were meeting some friends in the Sage Meadows Golf Course area, and this was very convenient. Our toddler spent several hours playing the lawn games, running around the farm, and collecting eggs from the chickens! The sunset was to die for. I should also mention that this place could be the cleanest AirBnB we have ever visited. We didn't hesitate for one second to let our 8 month old crawl around. We will definitely go back when visiting the area.Benjamin2017-02-21T00:00:00Z

Corky's place was great and felt nice and cozy. Everything was as advertised and I would definitely recommend staying here if you are in the area.Ian2016-10-31T00:00:00Z
The place was so nice we added an extra night. Big comfy couches, beds comfy, very large space, easy to find and Corky is a great helpful and responsive host.Tina2016-11-06T00:00:00Z
Very well kept and inviting. Thanks for providing your home for the week.Missy2017-03-22T00:00:00Z
We absolutely loved our stay at Corky's place! It was so cozy and welcoming! It was myself, my boyfriend, and our 7 month old. The place was roomy and comfortable. It was in a perfect location for us! We even made meals and had more than enough pots/pans and utensils to use without having to purchase any. Everything was absolutely wonderful and we definitely will be choosing this place again when visiting my family in Jonesboro!Angela2017-03-07T00:00:00Z
Very cozy and comfortable place to say. I highly recommend.Colby2017-04-06T00:00:00Z
Home is in a very nice upscale neighborhood in Jonesboro. The location was close to access the interstate, but still far enough away to be a quiet retreat. Everything we could have possibly needed was provided. We highly recommend!john2017-02-12T00:00:00Z
This place has that homey feel you just can't get from a hotel suite. We are very much an "online" family, so the wifi access really came in handy. The full kitchen is really nice as well. It would have been nice if there had been laundry facilities nearby, but the listing did not mention laundry so that's not a real issue. There are coin laundromats within driving distance. We will be using Airbnb again!Alan2016-11-26T00:00:00Z
Great place to relax and a great value, definitely worth the stay.Timothy2016-11-18T00:00:00Z

Great Place to stay for business travelers!Dean2017-02-23T00:00:00Z
Great place for value! Nicest house you will ever stay in. Super clean, very roomy and easy communication!Dan2017-03-18T00:00:00Z
What a nice home and wonderful hostess. Super clean and welcoming atmosphere. Looking forward to staying there my next visit in town.Hillary2017-03-24T00:00:00Z
Loved this quaint little house in Jonesboro. Private and well taken care of. You MUST stay at this wonderful place!Scott2017-03-21T00:00:00Z
Great as always!Hillary2017-04-07T00:00:00Z
We enjoyed out stay in the "Stained Glass House" and would not hesitate to stay there again, and we would recommend it to anyone! Heather and her husband are so kind and helpful and if possible works with your schedule! First and foremost, the house was immaculate which is very important to us! And it was supplied with any basics you'd need, plus extras, like snacks. It is in a quiet, nice neighborhood and easy to get to anyplace in Jonesboro from there. A great value for a nice place to stay!Linda2017-03-13T00:00:00Z
This is a lovely and exceptionally clean house. Heather is a friendly and helpful host. I will stay here again next time I visit Jonesboro.Julie2017-03-26T00:00:00Z

This place is very clean and has plenty of space. It was a nice halfway point for our trip.Paige2017-03-24T00:00:00Z
Chad was a very gracious host and keeps great care of the place. The appliances and amenities he offered were great and everything is as shown. The only thing is that a train track is right across the street and sometimes there is some noise at night. You cant really hear it from the bedrooms but can from the living room. All in all, it was a great stay and I'd highly recommend it!Cameron2017-01-15T00:00:00Z
The home was clean, comfortable and Chad was very helpful. The neighbor was also very nice. The train tracks were not a problem either. Thanks for the snacks left in the kitchen!Nancy2017-03-05T00:00:00Z

Benn and Mandy were the most accommodating and welcoming hosts we've stayed at so far! The cottage was absolutely perfect, TONS of space, washer and dryer, full kitchen stocked with all necessary things needed to cook. It was very clean and we even had a treat waiting for us when we arrived! We stayed in their guest home for about 6 weeks and we had a blast getting to know them. They were very respectful of space and were always willing to make adjustments for us. Example being, I work from home and Benn and Mandy ran another wireless router out to our space so that I could work during the day. They were very knowledgable about the area and gave wonderful recommendations on restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations, hospitals, etc. if we ever were to need them. We truly felt at home in their cute country cottage and would absolutely HIGHLY recommend staying here. To give you an idea of the surroundings, you would pull into the driveway to see a pond, with an adorable two seat wood swing next to it, and lots and LOTS of trees. Very relaxing and calm...with plenty of area to roam...! Thank you again, Benn and Mandy! We feel honored and blessed to have stayed with such a wonderful family!Alyssa2015-11-20T00:00:00Z
This place was amazing! I came here with a team coming through Memphis for a trade show. In addition to the beautiful location, they all told me that the beds were the most comfortable that any of them had slept in in a long time!Dan2017-03-31T00:00:00Z
We had an enjoyable stay in the farm country. Benn and his family were very friendly and helped out as needed. The guest house was basic but included the needed facilities. In the morning we had a chance to enjoy and photograph the beautiful setting.Neil2015-12-09T00:00:00Z
We only stayed for one night but had a great experience! Benn was very welcoming, and the guest house itself was very spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was also provided (bagels, cream cheese, and orange juice), which was a nice plus!Scarlett2016-03-27T00:00:00Z
We are Board members of the ARSA that were hosting a workshop at ASU-N in Marked Tree, AR and we spent 1 night in Benn's guesthouse. Benn and his family greeted us in the driveway and after showing us a quick tour of the place, left us to enjoy the peaceful surroundings of the guesthouse. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet and the fact that we did not have to get up an hour earlier to make the drive to Marked Tree from a hotel. The rustic feel of the guesthouse was so relaxing...wish we would have had longer to stay. The place was very clean and we each had our own comfortable bed. The showers were nice and warm and the breakfast snacks were a nice treat. If we are ever hosting a workshop again in Marked Tree, you can be sure we will be staying with Benn again at his guesthouse.Cindy2016-04-05T00:00:00Z
Benn was super friendly and welcoming, and the guesthouse was well maintained and definitely spacious enough for four people. We were all really pleased with our first airbnb experience! Would highly recommend Benn's place.Rebecca2016-03-16T00:00:00Z
The house was pretty cute. It has bunk beds and thats always a plus. The kitchen was cute too. And breakfast was provided so that was nice. All in all, there wasnt anything lacking.Ashika2015-12-25T00:00:00Z
Our family of 6 stayed at Benn's guest house for two nights to visit family and downtown Memphis (which was only 30 minutes away). Benn was communicative before our arrival quickly responding to any messages. My main priority when travelling with all of the family is finding somewhere that feels safe and this certainly ticked that box, we all slept peacefully. The guest house was beautifully quaint with an interesting history, clean everything, modern appliances and comfy beds, also some provisions which we appreciated. We feel privileged to have met Benn and his wonderful family who were very welcoming. We wished we had been able to stay longer. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this property.Emily2016-04-06T00:00:00Z

Cameron and his wife are very kind and welcoming. He was flexible and understanding about our needs while travelling. His home was neat and orderly. We had everything we could want including an array of bathroom items and coffee to get up with every morning. His home is in a very nice neighborhood, centrally located in Jonesboro. It was so convenient for our needs. We would stay here again without a doubt.Anna2017-03-23T00:00:00Z

We have now stayed here twice. The house is a great value; there is a great amount of space for people to spread out and a large kitchen that is great for preparing meals. The yard is nice for letting kids enjoy running in the yard. The neighborhood is quiet and is a short drive from a grocery and several other amenities. Amelia was incredibly gracious as we forgot a telephone and only realized once we had returned home.Denyce2017-03-19T00:00:00Z
House was beautiful Nd it worked perfectly for our mini family reunion. It was close to AState so made it easy to travel to watch baseball.Denyce2016-10-23T00:00:00Z
This home is located in a nice neighborhood. It is about a 10 minute drive to the university. It is very spacious and there is room for a medium sized group to have privacy but still enjoy each others company. The kitchen is fantastic! Everything was clean and as promised. Ameila was a great hostess!Amy2016-10-31T00:00:00Z
Our stay was excellent. Our host was very quick to communicate with us, and flexible with out late arrival time. The house was very clean, and had all of the amenities described.Mars2017-03-05T00:00:00Z
Location was great. House was clean and comfortable. This location is definitely on the top of my list. Host made our stay stress free.Raymond2016-11-23T00:00:00Z
The home is absolutely beautiful, in a very nice neighborhood. PLENTY of space too. fantastic kitchen, and big bonus of a muscadine vine in the backyard!Bo2016-09-04T00:00:00Z
Amelia was absolutely wonderful to work with. I had some follow up questions after my initial booking and she got back to me almost immediately. The house was more than spacious for our needs, clean, and well equipped with all your basic household necessities and convenient to where we needed to commute to while staying in Jonesboro. This was our first time using Airbnb for our travel needs and I have to say Amelia is the host you want to book with if you've never used this type of site and are hesitant about getting your feet wet. She made everything a breeze. I would absolutely book with her again if we were in the area. Thank you once again for a great first Airbnb experience, Amelia!Lauren2016-08-18T00:00:00Z

National Geographic: Living Treasures of Japan profiles nine established and respected Japanese artists. The Japanese government originally honored 70 craftspeople and performing artists working in ancient arts with a stipend and national admiration; the nine artists featured in the program are culled from that group of artists. Each artist works in a wholly unique ancient medium. For example, one man is a swordmaker who designs weapons based on special rituals; another artist is a dollmaker who gives every piece an distinct personality. A 90-year-old female weaver of indigo is the oldest artist featured; she died shortly after appearing in the video. Directors Noxon and Boyajian travel throughout the Japanese landscape to construct the touching and comprehensive profiles of the artists. ~ John Schietinger, Rovi

Charges to be filed against Browns fan who urinated on Art Modell's grave
A Browns fan who urinated on the grave of former Browns and Ravens owner Art Modell, and then posted the video to YouTube, will be charged by the Baltimore County State's Attorney's Office.

A Browns fan who urinated on the grave of former Browns and Ravens owner Art Modell, and then posted the video to YouTube, will be charged by the Baltimore County State's Attorney's Office.
"I want to commend the Baltimore County Police Department for doing outstanding work in identifying the suspect involved in this case," Baltimore County State's Attorney Scott D. Shellenberger said in a statement. "Everyone who has buried a loved one has the right to believe that their final resting place will be treated with respect. Bringing charges against this individual should act as a deterrent to others and assure the rest of us that no matter who you are, indecencies will not be committed against your final resting place."
More details via CBS Baltimore: "The unidentified Browns' fan can be seen ripping off a Ravens jersey to reveal a Browns jersey hidden underneath. He used a tube down his pants to urinate on Modell's grave and said to the camera, 'As far as [expletive] on your grave, I had no choice' -- referencing a phrase Modell made when he moved the team from Ohio to Maryland."
Modell moved the Browns to Baltimore following the 1995 season. The NFL awarded the Browns an expansion franchise in 1999, and the Ravens won their first Super Bowl in 2000 and again in 2012. Meanwhile, since returning to Cleveland, the Browns have gone 77-163 (an abysmal .321 winning percentage) in 15 seasons. And then there's this:

General Layout
This Beneteau 310 features a 9/10 fractional-sloop rig with Dutchman reefing on the main sail, roller furling genoa and for added thrills she is also equipped with a spinnaker. The sails are tamed using over-sized hardware with sheets and halyards led to self tailing Lewmar winches.
The shoal draft keel means the boat draws a mere 4 ft. 3", but its wing design maintains sailing performance by using a hydro-dynamically advantageous wing to improve lift. The keel bolts and backing plates are reassuringly large and corrosion free, and would not look out of place on a 40 footer!
As you enter below deck, you are immediately impressed by the volume of your living quarters. The Beneteau 310 offers a well laid out, light and pleasant place to cook, sleep and entertain your guests. Two large private cabins and separate heads offer big boat accommodation. The galley is large enough to cook a Thanksgiving dinner, and saloon table and seating can seat the whole family comfortably without elbowing uncle Bob in the ribs. Adding the abundance of ventilation and light to the luxurious accommodation and you have a boat fit for a King.
Additional Equipment:
- Raymarine ST60 Tridata display
- Raymarine ST60 Wind instrument
- Raymarine (Wheel Pilot) auto pilot system
- FM Stereo, with saloon and cockpit speakers and USB and Aux inputs
- Sail handling is controlled using Dutchman reefing on main and roller furling on the headsail, the halyard winches are all self tailing and are Lewmar 30, the sheet winches are also Lewmar self tailering and are 40 size.
- Below deck is an Eno, 3 burner stove and oven, frigomatic refrigerator with freezer compartment.
- Fresh water tanks, hot water tank, salt water wash-down in the galley
- Shore power cables and Charge Pro Battery charger

They are the history boys. David Cameron and George Osborne are keen students of the recent past, perhaps because they are Conservatives, or perhaps because they studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Oxford, which is really History with Added Relevance. Whereas Gordon Brown is interested in history for its own sake, being an historian by training, and Tony Blair was interested in historical nuggets if they served the purpose of his argument, the Conservative leadership take a close interest in the lessons of history, because they might have to apply them.
Which is why the speech given by Osborne, the shadow Chancellor, yesterday was surprising. It was a potentially important moment. As he acknowledged, people keep asking, "What are you going to do differently?" Yet, despite promising at the start of his speech "to try to answer" that question, he didn't. Just as Brown is in serious trouble over the abolition of the 10p income tax rate, Osborne held back. He could have set out how the Tories, who will vote against the change next week, would pay for it. Instead he said: "The responsible thing is to wait to see the economic conditions at the time of the election before we can set out our final economic plan for the country." Wait to see? That is not the lesson of history. It is not even the lesson of the past nine months.
In 1994, Labour engaged in a similar piece of mindless opportunism. Blair and Brown opposed putting VAT on domestic fuel, but did not say how they would pay for it. Not our problem, they said, which is what I heard Philip Hammond, the shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury, say on the radio at the weekend.
Labour won a noisy Commons victory in 1994; Kenneth Clarke was forced to put a penny on a litre of petrol instead. But it actually had no lasting effect (except to leave high-carbon gas and electricity lightly taxed). What worked politically was the specific plan for a windfall tax on the utility companies which Labour used to pay for its costed promises in the run-up to the 1997 election. That gave Blair and Brown credibility as an alternative government.
What worked for Osborne last year was his specific plan to tax non-domiciled workers to pay for an inheritance tax cut. The sums didn't add up, as Alistair Darling found out when he tried to implement the policy, but it gave the Tories credibility as an alternative government. Yesterday's chickening-out weakens that credibility.
Which is strange, given how diligently Cameron and Osborne do their homework. One subject in particular, I can report, is of obsessive interest to them. That of hung parliaments. For Gordon Brown, the 1977 Lib-Lab pact was a formative experience. For Cameron and Osborne, who were aged 10 and five at the time, it is history. They have to read about it and discuss it with professors.
One thing the historians tell them is that the old swingometer, which used to swing straight from a Labour majority to a Tory one with only a thin strip of "Uh-oh what happens here?" in between, now has to traverse a vast sector marked "Uncharted territory – phone Vernon Bogdanor".
So Cameron has been in touch with his old tutor at Brasenose College, Oxford, Professor Bogdanor, who is a constitutional historian of distinction. I am not privy to their conversations, but I deduce that they have discussed Lord Stamfordham and the first Labour Government of 1924.
I say this because Cameron has told his advisers that he would be prime minister if Brown had gone for an election in November. He thinks that Labour might have held on if the election had been in October, but that if Brown had called an election when the speculation was at its most fevered, after the Tories at their Blackpool conference started to push the juggernaut back, Labour would have lost its majority. Even if Labour had been the largest party, Cameron says, he would have expected to form a government. He cites the precedent of 1924 when, although the Conservatives were the largest party, Labour under Ramsay MacDonald formed the government.
Recently, I heard Professor Bogdanor speak about the 1924 case at the Hansard Society. He explained that Stanley Baldwin, the Conservative Prime Minister, had met parliament after losing his majority in the 1923 election, and had been defeated in a vote of confidence. Lord Stamfordham, the King's private secretary, then sounded out the party leaders and established that the Liberals would not oppose MacDonald as prime minister of a minority government.
The lesson of this episode, Bogdanor said, was that "a hung parliament is a political problem, not a constitutional one". That, I believe, is the basis of Cameron's confidence that, had Labour fallen short of an overall majority in the 2007 election that never was, Brown would have had to stand down even if he were the leader of the largest party. He believes that the politics of the situation would have required the Liberal Democrats to allow him to form a minority government. I am not sure he is right about that, but this exercise in hypothetical history lights up some important subterranean parts of the changing political landscape.
One is the significance of the change from Sir Menzies to Nick Clegg, even if, as we learnt last week, Clegg was elected only because Chris Huhne's late votes were held up in the Christmas post. As Centre Forum, the Liberal Democrat think tank that gave Gordon Brown his new policy adviser, Jennifer Moses, pointed out last month in a pamphlet about a hung parliament, "no one can predict with certainty which way Clegg and his colleagues might jump – something that could not have been said of the Liberal Democrats under Paddy Ashdown, Charles Kennedy or Sir Menzies Campbell".
Another is the role of the Queen's private secretary. George Osborne, the shadow Chancellor, shows a keen interest in the formation of another minority Labour government, in 1974. He has talked to his advisers about the role played by Sir Martin Charteris, the Queen's private secretary, in curtailing Edward Heath's expectation that he would have weeks rather than a weekend to see if he could assemble a majority from the Liberals and other parties.
Well, six months ago, the Queen appointed a new private secretary. Christopher Geidt's Who's Who entry offers an intriguing clue to the background of the man who may be charged with sounding out the party leaders in 2010. For several years, he was seconded from the Foreign Office to the private office of Carl Bildt, the Swedish conservative who was a UN envoy to the Balkans in the late 1990s. Bildt had been Swedish prime minister and is now foreign minister. It is just a coincidence, of course, but a remarkable one, that Bildt's Swedish conservatives are the favourite foreign model for the Cameronians. Born in 1961, Geidt too was only a schoolboy the last time there was a hung parliament in the UK. I wonder what the history boys know about him.

Mouse/human chimeric IgGl and IgG4 antibodies directed to the house dust mite allergen Der p 2: use in quantification of allergen specific IgG
R. C. Aalberse, Department of Allergy, Central Laboratory of the Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service. Plesmanlaan 125, 1066 CX Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Background and Objective Chimeric mouse/human monoclonal IgGl and IgG4 antibodies were developed against the house dust mite allergen Der p 2. These chimeric IgG antibodies, hIgG1-Dp2 A and hIgG4-Dp2 A, have the same binding characteristics as the previously reported chimeric hIgE-Dp2 A and are composed of the heavy chain variable domains and light chains ot the original murine monoclonal antibody 2B12., whereas the heavy chain constant domains have been replaced by the human IgGl or IgG4 heavy chain. The expression level of hIgG1-Dp2 A and hIgG4-Dp2 A was 1 and 3.5 μg/mL, respectively.
Methods and Results Since all IgG in these culture supernatants is allergen-specific. they are useful reference reagents and enable the calculation of the amount of allergen specific IgG l and IgG4 antibodies in absolute IgG amounts. The results obtained with two panels of sera from patients in immunotherapeutic treatment were evaluated and compared in Der p 2 IgE, IgGl and IgG4 RAST and with reversed lgG4 RAST using labelled purified Der p 2. Close agreement between the results for the two IgG4 assays was found.
Conclusion With these chimeric reference reagents the quantities of isotype specific antiallergen antibodies can be calculated and compared.

Liar, Liar, Hard Drive on Fire: How Media Context Affects Lying Behavior
Mattitiyahu Zimbler, Department of Psychology, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003. E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com or to Robert S. Feldman, College of Social and Behavioral Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003. E-mail: email@example.com
This study investigated frequency of deception when getting to know a stranger face to face or using computer-mediated technologies. Same-sex pairs of undergraduate participants engaged in 15-min conversations using e-mail, instant messenger, or speaking face to face. Afterward, target participants reviewed transcripts of their conversations and recorded inaccuracies. The results showed increased deception in the computer conditions, compared to the face-to-face condition, with the most lies found in e-mail messages. Lie content, rationale, and type were also affected by the communication medium. The findings suggest that it may be normative to distort reality online.

Radio frequency photonic links employing phase modulation can exhibit high dynamic range provided the received RF signal can be linearly demodulated. The linearity of conventional interferometer based coherent receivers is limited by their sinusoidal response. A balanced receiver with negative feedback to a reference tracking modulator is presented in this text. In order to achieve high linearity, the tracking modulator is used to reduce the net phase swing across the demodulator such that the interferometer response is restricted to its linear regime without penalty to the signal to noise ratio. In order to achieve linear phase tracking at high frequencies, high loop gain and loop bandwidth are required. This means the physical delay of the feedback loop must be sufficiently short enough to prevent loop instability at higher frequencies. Novel techniques in monolithic integration of the receiver components is thus utilized to achieve an ultra-compact receiver architecture.

My Mum
Sorry, but it's another sad post. Today (10th November 2015) would have been my mum's 85th birthday. She died on November 13th, three days after her 80th birthday in 2010. Here is a photo of her when she was 17 years old. Dad had this turned into a Bakelite ring with the picture somehow imprinted into it. He seems to have mislaid it though, but here is the original black and white photo, probably taken on an old Box Brownie.
Grace Anita Gregory, later Tomlin
It's actually a photo of a photo so it looks a bit fuzzy. It would have been 1947, so just after the Second World War. I think my vintage mad daughter Miss Pond will love the hairstyle.

With his eye set firmly on the upcoming civic polls, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar, on Sunday, raked up the long pending issue of housing for mill workers and for slumdwellers on airport land at the National Front of India Trade Unions (NFITU) national conference in Airoli.
"At least 4,000 houses constructed on mill land are lying vacant, but not distributed. Similarly, 3,000-4,000 houses are ready on airport land. The state government should distribute these housing stocks," Pawar said.
Mill workers comprise a significant vote bank in the island city and their housing issue has suddenly blipped on the radar of all political parties.
Chief minister Prithviraj Chavan had recently clarified in the state assembly that out of the 1 lakh mill workers, around 20,000 could be accommodated but this would not be free of cost.
Pawar also announced 10,000 houses for mathadi workers. "I have directed CIDCO chairman Pramod Hindurao to ensure 10,000 houses for Mathadi workers within a month. They should be given constructed tenements or land to build houses," Pawar said.
NFITU, one of the twelve national trade unions, was recently revived by the NCP in a bid to challenge the Congress controlled Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC).
Pawar is NFITU's chief patron and has asked all NCP trade unions to be affiliated to it. These include the mathadi workers union and mill workers unions led by NCP leaders like Ganesh Naik and Sachin Ahir.
In the run-up to the polls, the NCP is keen on diversifying its traditional vote bank and is wooing all marginalised sections of society.
Govindrao Adik, general secretary of NFITU, said, "This organisation is not formed to defeat or compete with other similar organisations. It is only to unite all workers and labourers and give them a single platform to voice their concerns.
"We realised such an organisation was necessary to ensure the development of the state."
"We will ask all workers to join NFITU instead of INTUC as this organisation will give them justice," said DR Patil, NCP leader in state transport (ST) union. Prior to the open workers meeting, NFITU representatives held close door meetings in which 19 resolutions were discussed as well as approved.

12/19/2005 - Sunday presented a dilemma in the Broncos' rooting interests. Either they would celebrate their first AFC West Division title in seven years if the Indianapolis Colts remained undefeated by beating the San Diego Chargers. Or the Broncos would get a confidence boost knowing the Colts are beatable at home. In the end, there was no choice at all. The Broncos found out the Colts can be had. The AFC West title? The Broncos should get that, anyway, provided they beat the 4-10 Oakland Raiders on Saturday in the final regular-season game at Invesco Field at Mile High.
Running game gets back in high gear - Denver Post - Bill Williamson
12/19/2005 - By the end of the frigid night, after all 37 of Jake Plummer's passes had landed, the Broncos found themselves with a tidy running effort, led by Mike Anderson, who is creeping toward his first 1,000-yard rushing season in five years. Hidden in the aerial attack and the playoff-berth-clinching 28-17 victory at Buffalo on Saturday was the resurgence of Denver's dominating running game. The Broncos devoured 178 yards rushing on 37 carries. The majority of the yardage came in the second half, when the Broncos gained 115 yards on 26 carries.
Broncos are close to scratching 7-year itch - Rocky Mountain News - Lee Rasizer
December 19, 2005 - The AFC West title is within the grasp of the Denver Broncos. But defensive end Trevor Pryce isn't ready to acknowledge the significance of such an accomplishment, even if it comes gift-wrapped on Christmas Eve. "Winning the AFC West is nice and all that, but that just guarantees you a spot in the playoffs," he said. "It doesn't mean anything else." The Broncos' 28-17 victory Saturday against the Buffalo Bills in Orchard Park, N.Y., provided that postseason assurance but not the division crown. The Broncos (11-3) could have won their first outright AFC West championship since 1998, but the San Diego Chargers ended the Indianapolis Colts' bid for an unbeaten season with a 26-17 victory Sunday.
Pressure point for Broncos - Rocky Mountain News - Jeff Legwold
December 19, 2005 - Those who call Rod Smith "the heart and soul of this offense" also can see what it would mean for Smith to have another chance at a Super Bowl trip. "On the field, he's always open," Broncos quarterback Jake Plummer said. "He's determined. He wants to get back there. He's been there, he's tasted it, he wants to get back. He's as determined a player as I've ever been around." Exhibits A through Z in Saturday's 28-17 victory against the Buffalo Bills might have been Smith's 11 catches for 137 yards, including a leaping grab of a deflected pass for a touchdown that tied the score 7-7 just before halftime.
Legwold: Playoff bye is the biggest selling point for Broncos - Rocky Mountain News - Jeff Legwold
December 19, 2005 - The Broncos did as much as they could in western New York on Saturday night to enhance their playoff fortunes. Sure, maybe they could have scored a few more touchdowns, allowed a few fewer points, but sift through the late-night work and the most they could do against the Buffalo Bills was clinch a playoff spot. They went, they saw, they did that. Now, they are on to bigger fish.
Williams may be ready for playoffs - Daily Camera - Ryan Thorburn
December 19, 2005 — While the Denver Broncos were making a successful road trip to Buffalo, rookie cornerback Darrent Williams was back home making progress on his injured groin. Originally expected to be out of the lineup four-to-six weeks after getting hurt early in the Baltimore game on Dec. 11, Williams could be ready for the playoffs after working with a specialist. "We got good news," Denver head coach Mike Shanahan said on Sunday. "The doctors thought he is in really good shape for the initial diagnosis and feel like he's coming along very good. He had treatment today and worked out in the pool. Hopefully in a couple of weeks he'll be ready to go."
Eyes on the Prize -- a Bye Week - Denver Broncos.com - Andrew Mason
Monday, December 19, 2005 - Just 10 hours had passed since Head Coach Mike Shanahan and his Broncos had returned to Denver amid flurry-filled and frigid darkness, and he had already moved on to what was next. Clinching a playoff spot? Ancient history. And while the division title remains another task yet to be completed after San Diego defeated Indianapolis 26-17 on Sunday afternoon, it is still just one win away. Shanahan and the Broncos, however, know they need two. "Our goal is to win the last two games so we can have a bye," he said at his day-after press conference Sunday. "We control our own destiny. Obviously it starts with the Raiders (on Dec. 24), but we're in control of our own destiny.
Notebook: Cox Recuperates - Denver Broncos.com - Andrew Mason
Monday, December 19, 2005 - The shoulder injury Curome Cox incurred during Saturday night's 28-17 win over Buffalo shouldn't keep him from playing against the Oakland Raiders. For that matter, it might not even keep him out of practice this week, Head Coach Mike Shanahan said. "I think he can practice Tuesday," Shanahan said. "He had a first-degree separation. He got treatment (Sunday) morning. I think he'll be all right." Cox's role has increased dramatically through the regular season, which began with the former University of Maryland defender on the Broncos' practice squad. He was promoted to the 53-man roster for the 20-7 win at Jacksonville in Week 4 to provide depth due because of injuries to Darrent Williams and Champ Bailey, and after going back down to the practice squad after the game, returned to the active roster to stay for the following week's game with Washington.
Broncos treasure their deep secondary - Mercury News - John Wawrow, AP
Sun, Dec. 18, 2005 Smith unsatisfied after Broncos clinchJOHN WAWROWAssociated PressORCHARD PARK, N.Y. - It'll take a lot more than the Denver Broncos clinching a playoff berth to excite Rod Smith. The 11-year receiver is already focusing on the Broncos' next goal: Winning a playoff game, something the team hasn't done dating back to its second consecutive Super Bowl title in 1999. Denver has since gone 0-3 in the postseason. "It means nothing," Smith said early Sunday morning, following Denver's playoff-clinching 28-17 win against the Buffalo Bills. "We're in the playoffs. That's where we wanted to go. ... We've still got our work cut out." The victory clinched Denver (11-3) its third straight playoff berth. The Broncos, who host Oakland on Saturday, need a win or a San Diego loss or tie to secure their first AFC West title since 1998 after the Chargers

What is "Unconscious Bias"?
We all know that the unconscious mind is a powerful and intrinsic force in helping to shape our overall behavior in our everyday lives. Similarly, organizations and thought leaders are beginning to appreciate and harness this deeper understanding of how our cultures help shape the automatic decisions that we make every moment of our lives and the profound impact that this phenomenon has on our personal and professional lives.
So How Does This Affect Me?
Every human being gets triggered- either positively or negatively- when we are exposed to different kinds of people. The concept of "unconscious bias" impacts individuals and organizations at virtually every level of organizational life; including hiring, performance management, succession planning, and strategic decisions in organizations. Cutting-edge recent studies and research within the cognitive sciences point us to the conclusion that most of these decisions are not made by bad people with bad attitudes; but rather by well-intended people who have no idea about the internal unconscious processes that may be affecting their decision-making every day.
What Can I Do?
Cook Ross Inc. combines fundamental psychological approaches like stereotyping threat, unintentional blindness, and selective attention along with more classical diversity approaches which emphasize a focus on micro-advantages and micro-inequities. Our fundamental belief at Cook Ross is that while egregious displays of discriminatory behavior must be clearly addressed, the much larger organizational problem is that vast numbers of unconscious decisions are made by people who do not even realize that there is "unconscious bias" in their behavior.
The core objectives in our work on "unconscious bias" are to get participants to do the following:
- Examine their own background and identities, so that they can interact more authentically with co-workers, customers and the community.
- Explore how the brain functions, so that they can recognize unconscious bias as a natural function of the human mind.
- Expose patterns of unconscious bias so that they can navigate their impact on their decision-making processes.
- Confront their own internal biases so that they can practice conscious awareness in their lives.
- Identify organizational leverage points so that they can mitigate the impact of unconscious bias in interactions, processes and structures.
- Practice strategies and tools so that they can create transformational systemic change in their organization.
To learn more about our trainings and thought leadership in Unconscious Bias, see below.
Presentation Sample by Howard Ross, Chief Learning Officer
Everyday Bias Book
Incorporating anecdotes from today's headlines alongside case studies from over 30 years as a nationally prominent diversity consultant, Ross help readers understand how unconscious bias impacts our day-to-day lives and particularly our daily work lives. And, he answers the question: "Is there anything we can do about it?" by providing examples of behaviors that the reader can engage in to disengage the impact of their own biases. With an added appendix that includes lessons for handling conflict and bias in the workplace, this book offers an invaluable resource for a broad audience, from individuals seeking to understand and confront their own biases to human resource professionals and business leaders determined to create more bias-conscious organizations in the belief that productivity, personal happiness, and social growth are possible if we first understand the widespread and powerful nature of the biases we don't realize we have.

Richie Hyden, Co-Founder and COO IRIS.TV
"The last time I looked at real estate, it took forever. I tried a broker but that would take hours of my day just to end up with nothing that suited us because we aren't at the point where we can lease an entire floor and afford to furnish it. We needed something stable and flexible that would support our growth trajectory and at our size, we had tapped out of the coworking model.
Using PivotDesk, we found a fully furnished space with everything we needed (including conference rooms) in under a week. The space came with an office manager that took care of the amenities and facilities — all of which were included in the price. We had total flexibility AND the space we needed to grow. It was a total no-brainer.
Now I just want to get our work done and be productive. Thankfully, we have a space we can call our own that allows us to build our culture, expand our team and build better solutions for our clients. I don't have to worry about the future of our business being tied to a long-term lease and we didn't have to fork out a ton of cash upfront in order to secure a great environment."
