Recently, one Abdul Hassan has petitioned the Federal Election Commission to give an opinion as to whether or not he can legitimately run for President of the United States. Hassan is asking because although he is an American citizen, he was not born in this country. He was born in Guyana in 1974, thus, he is not a "natural born citizen" as required by the United States Constitution.
What is interesting about this situation is that not only is the Federal Election Commission not authorized to make this sort of determination (they are authorized to monitor campaign finances, and investigate and prosecute should any violation of campaign finance laws occur), but even more interesting is that if the FEC does agree that Hassan can run for President, a dangerous, a very dangerous precedent will be set.
Not that I think for even a second that Hassan could ever win the White House, nor do I believe his candidacy is even about becoming President. I believe that the single and solitary reason this situation exists is to see if the Supreme Court and Congress will step in and overrule any opinions the FEC gives in support of Hassan.
If the FEC does give an opinion in support of Hassan's candidacy, and if it goes unchallenged, then the "natural born citizen" requirement as stated in the U.S. Constitution is null and void. If Hassan does run (which I am sure he will if he receives the FEC's support), then although he will lose the election, I am certain that his campaign will be closely monitored as well as the reaction of the American people to ascertain whether or not it would be possible to elect a foreign born citizen to the White House.
Is this something as innocent as a patriotic foreign born citizen desiring to serve his country? It is possible. I am sure there are many in this country who fit that description, as evidenced by those serving in our armed forces. However, this could also be a "testing of the waters" so to speak, by a fifth column movement within our country. Specifically, an islamic fifth column.
Now maybe I have read too many Brad Thor and Vince Flynn novels (but I do love reading them!), and maybe I am falling into a conspiracy theory hole. Anything is possible here. That being said, however, I am nonetheless suspicious of this unknown foreign born citizen popping up out of the woodwork and declaring his candidacy. What makes me even more suspicious is that I cannot seem to find anything about him other than his petition to the FEC and his presidential candidacy website. I cannot seem to even find a photograph of the man, not even on his website, and that alone seems strange to me.
All in all, I believe this situation calls for extreme scrutiny.

More than just the latest buzzword, components built for enduro racing have to be incredibly durable as well as capable of being pedaled uphill. Reynolds' Blacklabel Enduro 27.5 wheels are just that, and are some of the best and toughest enduro wheels I've ridden.
- Knight Composites Trail wheelset review
- Atomik Chubby 43 wheelset review
- Bontrager Line Pro 30 wheelset review
Reynolds Blacklabel Enduro 27.5 wheelset spec
- 27.5in carbon rims
- 28mm internal width, 34mm external width
- Hookless bead
- 28 straight pull spokes
- Industry Nine hub internals, 3-degree engagement
- 790g (front) / 920g (rear) weight
Centerlock for the win
Rather than the more common six-bolt rotor attachment, the Industry Nine hubs feature the Centerlock rotor standard and include adaptors for use with six-bolt rotors.
The lockring tool for Centerlock is conveniently the same as a Shimano external bottom bracket cup tool.
In my experience, unscrewing one large lockring is much faster and easier than messing with six tiny, snug T25 bolts. Some people claim rotors can loosen with the adaptor system, but I have yet to experience any issues on these I9 hubs or any other similarly equipped hubs.
Shockingly tough
Reynolds touts the build quality of its wheels, as well as the asymmetric carbon rims, which allow for more even spoke tension. The claimed result is tougher, better riding wheels.
With that in mind, as well as an Enduro World Series-proven Norco Range under me, I launched the Reynolds wheels into some seriously ugly terrain. Hard landings, overshot transitions, cased jumps — the Blacklabel Enduro wheels endured some of my worst attempts and rolled away unfazed.
I used Maxxis Minion DHF and DHR II, Kenda Hellkat and Helldiver, and Schwalbe Magic Mary and Rock Razor tires. Despite bottoming a few different tires to the rear rim, I've spotted zero damage.
For some peace of mind, Reynolds offers its Assurance Program. For an additional $149 (one year), $229 (two years) or $299 (three years) the company will replace or repair two wheels, no questions asked.
Yep, it covers riding like an idiot, racing above your skill level, or simply running them over with your car — any damage is covered — which, when you're jackhammering a few grand worth of plastic and rubber into rocks and roots seems like a good deal.
It should be noted however that other carbon wheel companies include robust warranties in the standard wheel price. For example, Race Face covers any damage for two years and Santa Cruz claims lifetime replacement for damage done while riding. Other companies such as Enve and WTB offer warranties as well, but the details are less straight forward.
Stiff riding but not to detriment of line choice
They're tough, decently light and look the business, but none of that matters. What's most important is the ride. And they carve trail extremely well.
One of the biggest challenges for any wheel (especially carbon wheels) is balancing stiffness with handling. Wheels that are too stiff ride harshly and can ping you off your chosen line. Wheels that are too flexy lack response and can fail. Reynolds has found the balance.
Swapping a stock Race Face Arc 30 wheelset for the Blacklabel Enduros highlighted how a good wheelset can elevate a bike to the upper echelon. The decrease in weight was the least of the benefits, and the biggest improvement was the ride.
Cornering improved as the Blacklabel Enduro wheels locked onto the lines I chose. The bike's suspension felt more controlled as the stiff wheels transmitted impacts into the fork and shock instead of deflecting and twisting.
And of course the quickness of the Industry Nine hubs with their 3-degrees of engagement made the big Range feel snappier, even lighter and quicker out of corners. Although, the incessant buzz of the freebody gets on my nerves.
Durability was increased too. No matter how sideways I landed, or how fast I smashed into things, spoke tension remained consistent and the rims arrow true.
Bottom line: some of the best wheels for enduro
Reynolds has pulled off the tricky combination of stiff, precise wheels that don't rattle your teeth or pinball the bike around rocks. They're expensive, no doubt, but on par with other carbon hoops. More importantly, they have the strength and durability to be thrashed everyday.
For enduro racers, and/or those who are rough on equipment, the Reynolds Blacklabel Enduro 27.5 wheels are at the top of the carbon wheel list.

Todd Carty has been voted off the ice in Celebrity Dancing on Ice.
The fifth celebrity to exit the show, the former Eastender said of the experience: "It's been fantastic. I am happy to have been invited back. I knew a career as a skater wasn't beckoning, but you may just see me back on the ice someday."
Finding himself in the skate off with Zaarah Abrahams he said: "I'm not surprised. Don't watch this space," he joked.
Recreating his original show stopping performance to the Beatles track Help! Carty performed with gusto, this time sending his skating partner gliding off the ice in a comic twist on his original performance.
Abrahams danced to the Prince song Diamonds and Pearls commenting : "To skate with Andy, I just love it."
Praising Carty for bringing the fun factor to the show, Christopher Dean said: "We're just glad you're leaving in one piece."
The judges were unanimous in their vote. "It's great that you re-visited " said Karen Barber "but now it's time to go."
Jason Gardiner said "Zaarah you were poetry in motion while Todd you were like a derailed locomotion."
The show featured the highest and lowest scores of the series so far, with favourite to win Ray Quinn scoring an impressive 34.5 and Todd Carty bringing up the rear with a paltry 12.
An audience favourite, the former Eastenders star left the judges open mouthed as he took to the ice in a Venetian gondola for a solo performance.
"All I can say is where is Jaws when you need him?" said an unforgiving Jason Gardiner, who gave him a record low score of 1.5.
"A point for the fact that you stayed in the vicinity," he added alluding to Carty's memorable first performance when he left his partner stranded on the ice.
"I'm just glad I got through. First time I've ever skated on my own. Life in the old dog yet. I'm loving it. I'm loving every single minute of it. All the crowds support," said Carty.
Favourite to win the show, Quinn meanwhile, left the judges spellbound with his performance. "It just doesn't look like he's got skates on. Sublime," said Robin Cousins.
The show's host Phillip Schofield was generous in his praise of the skating celebrities saying: "The standard was incredibly high as our ten celebrities jostled for a place on the leader board."
"We had some fantastic performances tonight there are several potential winners out there. It's changing all the time," added Dean.
9 remaining skaters will continue next week in a bid to be named the Ultimate Celebrity Dancing on Ice champion.
Watch Celebrity Dancing on Ice on Sunday 26th January at 6.15pm.

Illuminate your marketing plans using promotional torches and flash lights. These handy household helpers which can often save the day. Either in the car, the home or the office there's always a use for a custom branded torch. the range available here includes options suitable for use by professions such as security through to novelty items and eco friendly light producers which don't require batteries. Whatever you're after there's a flashlight branding and budgetary point which will match your promotional plans. A gift of a promotional torch is something which can one day save a client's day. Beyond the obvious utility and practical value which is inherent in a torch or flashlight providing a gift which can assist in a difficult situation or an emergency can leverage your investment into a heightened level of visibility
A high quality torch is something that is kept in nearly every home, and workspace or vehicles may even have their own handy torches as well. When experiencing a power outage, walking about, or working in a dimly lit area, a torch can provide both convenience and safety to its user, as they are made to provide both functional and portable light in a variety of different situations. When branding is placed on a torch, not only can a brand market themselves to their consumers, but they can show a level of caring as well. When the consumer feels as though a brand cares about their safety and their wellbeing, they will naturally feel better about doing business with the particular company, and branded torches have the ability to place a company's name into a positive place in the mind.
For construction, mining, and other industries that may have employees working in poorly lit conditions, torches can be a necessity. A branded torch in these situations gives an employee a way to stay safe while performing their job, as they also help to spread awareness and create exposure for the brand. Branded torches can be very inexpensive items, allowing brands to spend less while marketing themselves in a particularly effective way.
Steel, aluminium, and plastic materials are the three most common manufacture options for branded torches, and these offer affordability, durability, and longevity. A torch should remain usable for a significant length of time, and they should be reliable enough to be counted on in safety situations, making these enduring materials an ideal choice in their manufacture. LED bulbs will often be used to light these torches, and the choice of this type of bulb gives the torches an efficient bright light as well as a convenient eco-friendly factor. LED lights are long lasting, so they will not need frequent replacement, and their light output is significantly higher than traditionally used standard bulbs.
For metal bodied torches, laser engraving is the most popular branding option, and this gives a brand a way to place their logo into the material used on the torch. Laser engraved branding will also often remain visible for the entire lifetime of the product. For plastic bodied torches, pad printing can place a coloured brand image or logo onto the body of the torch to attract the eye and help to create effective brand exposure.
A paving company working on public roads offered branded torches to all employees working during the night doing paving repairs. The employees were thankful for the torches, as they found that their work appeared cleaner and more even when they were able to perform their tasks in optimal light conditions.
In smaller quantities, torches of all materials may be able to be shipped affordably and conveniently. With heavier torches made of metal materials, these items are best hand distributed when a large number of recipients are expected to be reached.

Gimp Animation PackageCommunity Forums/Developer Stations/Gimp Animation Package
| Anyone tried the Gimp Animation Package? Is it any good? If not, can anyone suggest a decent alternative (free or cheap). I`m after an animation package that can deal with higher quality images other than simple lowres sprites.
Thanks for any advice,
| If 50$ is considered cheap you could have a look at Anime Studio: http://my.smithmicro.com/mac/anime/index.html
| Are you looking to do frame by frame animation or cut-out animation?
I use GIMP a lot and like it, and have messed a little with GAP. Frankly, it's not the best option for animation. It's kind of a hack to get GIMP to work with multiple frames, and stores one xcf file for each frame. Though it does work. :)
If you want cutout software these ones might be worth a look.
- Anime Studio as mentioned by TommyH, does cut out mostly using vectors, but can use bitmaps as well.
- CreaToon - bitmap based cut out software that is now FREE. You can get it at creatoon.com Not as advanced as AnimeStudio, but quite usable.
- ToonBoom - Mainly a frame by frame program, but latest version does cut out too. Comes at different prices.
- Synfig Studio - a vector based open-source morphing program, that shows a lot of promise...but is still in relatively early stages of development. http://synfig.org/Main_Page
- Blender - Yeah, it's a 3D program, but there is nothing stopping you from using 3D software to do 2D cutout. I know of at least two TV series that have used Maya to do 2D cut-out animation. blender.org
If you want to do frame by frame drawn animation, there aren't many free options:
- Pencil http://www.pencil-animation.org/ Was somewhat limited last time I tried it, but might be better now. It's free, so go try it out.
- FrameToon - in Japanese, see this post http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=83390 by me from a while back.
- ToonBoom - vector based, works okay. Can do cut-out too.
- TVPaint - quite expensive, but also really nice.
You might want to check out Cinepaint as well. It was a fork of GIMP from quite a few years ago, made for film effects work. It started of well, but then kind of died...then turned into Glasgow....which...well...I don't know... :)
| Thanks for the links guys, I`ll check them out. Blender could be a good option though, thanks for mentioning that.
| I use blender for iso characters,
you have to make sure you turn off anti-aliasing when you render or you wont get a nice seperation between character and background.
| Thanks for the tip.
| I just came across http://www.pencil-animation.org/ that might be worth a look.
| Thanks, funnily enough I came across it yesterday too ;)
| what series used maya for the cut-out?
| South Park and a Norwegian series called Kutoppen, that I know about.
| nvm
| I wanna know what the big studios use. That way you have the best reference ever.
| What about Corel Xara. It deals with bitmaps, but can't do pixel editing. Excellent, if not the best vector art app out there. Animation is pretty easy too.
I wanna know what the big studios use. That way you have the best reference ever.
Uh, there's Amazon Paint and ifxAnt, both probably way out of
If you can't afford that (ah ha ha haa!! OF COURSE YOU CAN'T!), there's PD Pro, a Corel Painter-like program with facilities for animation. Try the free version to see if it has what you want insofar as tools.
Something I found mildly interesting was that plugins written for it must be written in Lua, which BlitzMax offers facilities to use as a scripting language.
| Thanks for the continued suggestions everyone.
| Please let us know what you went with (and why), I am curious.
| Hmmm... I wrote a little 2d animation tool with BlitzMax, which is very promissing, but I havn't continued with it for a while. It has layers, undos and redos, dublicate, insert, delete, a pretty and unique color pallet, playback with parametric fps and internal 16bit colors, dithering for 8bit. Reacts to pen pressure for brush size and/or opacity, adjustable brush feather. Loads and saves PNGs, whereby I also added a desaturation feature and incidently a sharpening/blur filter as well (was just curious if I could...and I could).
Now you've read all that and can't get the tool...pffff...sorry. I still have to write a proper interface for it and all the fileformat import/export features along with a proprietary fileformat for scenes, brushes and such. It has some long ways to go, but well... promissing.

I can across this tag recently and thought it was a good way to show you what kind of person I am when it comes to the different types of make up :) So here we go...
Would you rather lose all your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lip glosses or lose all your palettes and eye shadows?
This is easy for me, I never were eye shadow. Mainly because I find it doesn't suit me, and I can't put it on at all... Every time I try and do smokey eyes after watching tutorials on YouTube, I end up looking like a sad panda haha so definitely I'd prefer to lose my eye shadows and palettes.
Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?
I would much prefer to never cut my hair again, I love having long hair and I want to grow it all the way down to my bum!
Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
I think I'm more of a coral cheek kind of girl, its more natural on my skin tone
If you had £1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup?
Ohhh this is tricky... Can't I I buy both?! If I have to choose... It would have to be clothes
Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner or eyeliner as lipstick?
Black eye liner on my lips would look very strange... but I think lipstick on my waterline would be painful so I'm going to have to pick eyeliner
Would you rather only use one eye shadow colour or one lip colour for the rest of your life?
Again like I said I don't use eye shadow so it wouldn't matter if I only had one
Would you rather wear winter clothes in the summer or summer clothes in the winter?
I hate sweating way more than I hate feeling cold so I'd rather wear summer clothes in winter. I could layer up loads of them to warm me up
Would you rather have dark nails or bright nails all year round?
Definitely bright nails, they are my favourite!
Would you rather give up your favourite lip product or your favourite eye product?
I would probably say lip product as I always wear eye liner or mascara but half the time I will just use lip balm on my lips
Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a ponytail or a messy bun?
I don't like my hair in a ponytail so Id say a messy bun, I love a good messy bun
Would you rather never be able to paint your nails again or never use lip gloss?
I love painting my nails, I feel naked without them painted so defo lip gloss!
Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all or sharpie them in everyday?
Surely I could do my eyebrows anyway I want so I could do them very lightly with the sharpie... imagine no eyebrows... scary!
Would you rather live without makeup or nail polish?
Well you'll notice someone make up more then their painted nails so I'm going to say I'd rather live without nail polish, but my life would be very sad and dull!
I hope you've enjoyed this, feel free to do it yourself.
Let me know when you have, I'd love to know other peoples answers :)

In total there were 12 blocks made and it was fun to put them together. Absolutely gorgeous and colorful. It was so exciting to look at all those different prints.
This week I took the quilt around Galway and lucky me I had beautiful sunshine. So my first stop was at the beach. I went to the life guard tower in Salthill. I really tried my best to make a lovely picture but the wind did not make it easy. Finally I went to the changing room to unfreeze my fingers but I had to put her up to the Galway hooker.
The finished beauty measures 39'' x 51''. She is quilted in diagonal lines on every second square with a yellow thread on the front and a white on the back.
For the binding I used a purple fabric with dots. This time I tried something new for me and sew the binding from the front. After a good press I stitches as close as possible to the binding to fix it to the back. This worked really nice and even the corners look really neat.
On the back I just used a simple stripy fabric from Ikea I had in my stash. It reflects the colors from the front.
Isn't she colorful? I love this pattern and all the colors used. She really brightens the day. So now she is waiting to be given away
A huge thank you to all the ladies who helped me to make this beauty. It was hard to let her go but I am sure she will find a lovely home where she gives a huge hug to someone.

Brad Anderson's, the director, Vanishing on 7th Street looks like a different version of Stephen King's Myst. With Myst, people disappear whenever they enter the fog and with this film, people disappear whenever they step in the dark. The director obviously has a knack for something scary and / or something new. And it was quite apt and palpable with the film's tagline, "Stay in the Light". Read the rest of this entry ?

T500FC, 486th: Happy Accidents (Brad Anderson, 2000)February.21.2011
I am surprised that I haven't seen this film. Shown in 2000, I never knew, until now of course, that such film exists. This film is all about Marisa Tomei and Vincent D'Onofrio; it also gives the idea of time-travel or in this case, "back traveling". I wish I've seen this film before; it doesn't show any CGI or heavy animation, the only technical stuff that I could probably see is the reverse slow mo effect, and hey, they've been using this technique before, which is quite invigorating in a sense, thanking Brad Anderson for directing such film.

Fantastic Mr. Fox.2009.Wes AndersonJanuary.9.2010
Critics were saying that Wes Andersons' films are on a downhill. With the release of The Life Aquatic, which retains the Anderson taste but there is a feel of a decline critically, and with The Darjeeling Limited, which was probably forgettable in a way (not for me though), Wes bounces back with a family friendly film that features three men and a fabulous fox.

Today, the church commemorates one of the most influencial theologians, pastors, martyrs in my life, Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Bonhoeffer was a pastor, a teacher, and one the leaders of the Confessing Church in Germany. The Confessing Church was a church body that broke away from the National German Lutheran Church when the Nazis Regime took control. They would not allow Hitler to dictate how the Gospel would be preached nor would they pledge allegiance to anyone other than God. Later, Bonhoeffer was arrested for his involvement in an assassination attempt on Hitler. He spent over 2 years in prison and concentration camps and was hanged April 9, 1945.
His most common works are The Cost of Discipleship, Life Together, Ethics, and Letters and Papers From Prison. I took a religious ethics course on Dietrich Bonhoeffer in college and it had a profound impact on my faith. His book, Life Together, should be required reading for every church council and his book, The Cost of Discipleship, should be required reading for every professed follower of Christ.
I would like to leave you with my favorite written work of Bonhoeffer's. It is a poem that he wrote while in prison towards the end of his life. He is questioning his identity, his personhood, his authenticity. People call him incredible, and amazing, and inspirational, and the light of Christ, but he feels in his heart that he is somebody different.
I think that, while he wrote this in such an extreme condition and his context is not ours, we can still relate to these words. We still feel this pull of being both Saint and Sinner. We still feel in our hearts the brokenness, loneliness, fear, and terror of life and death. And yet we can trust in the promise that we are God's. That our identity is in God. No matter what we think or what others tell us, we are children of God and God loves us.
Who am I? They often tell me
I would step from my cell's confinement
calmly, cheerfully, firmly,
like a squire from his country-house.
Who am I? They often tell me
I would talk to my warders
freely and friendly and clearly,
as though it were mine to command.
Who am I? They also tell me
I would bear the days of misfortune
equably, smilingly, proudly,
like one accustomed to win.
Am I then really all that which other men tell of?
Or am I only what I know of myself,
restless and longing and sick, like a bird in a cage,
struggling for breath, as though hands were compressing my throat,
yearning for colours, for flowers, for the voices of birds,
thirsting for words of kindness, for neighbourliness,
trembling with anger at despotisms and petty humiliation,
tossing in expectation of great events,
powerlessly trembling for friends at an infinite distance,
weary and empty at praying, at thinking, at making,
faint, and ready to say farewell to it all?
Who am I? This or the other?
Am I on person today, and tomorrow another?
Am I both at once? A hypocrite before others,
and before myself a contemptibly woebegone weakling?
Or is something within me still like a beaten army,
fleeing in disorder from victory already achieved?
Who am I? They mock me, these lonely questions of mine.
Whoever I am, thou knowest, O God, I am thine.

The Unbelievable Effect of Apple Cider Vinegar Use to Treat Eczema
Eczema is a very common skin problem which makes the skin itchy and red. Usually it occurs in the early childhood period, in babies and infants, but still it can appear in every age.
Following that, about 20 % of the children in the USA have this condition as opposite to only about 3 % of the adult Americans with eczema.
Treat Eczema
The most common form of eczema is a topic dermatitis, which goes with inflammation and itchiness. Eczema can appear all over the body and it is different for every person.
People who suffer from eczema have rashes on their face, wrists, knees, hands and the area behind the knees. These rashes go hand in hand with itchiness which can be of different intensity. For many people the itch is often mild or moderate.
The itch stops when the person scratches the affected area, up until it starts bleeding. The bleeding can make the eczema worse and add more skin complication to this condition.
Pharmaceutical companies offer many solutions to this problem, but yet they go with severe side effect. Many of the ingredients in these products are harmful substances which can have a good effect on your eczema but a bad effect on your body.
According to this, many dermatologists suggest to use organic apple cider vinegar as an alternative to the conventional creams and OTC drugs. Vinegar contains natural properties which has a great effect on the eczema treatment.
Here are Our 7 Picks Why you Should Start Using Vinegar Today!
- It has great anti-fungal power. When you start applying apple cider vinegar on a regular basis, you will start noticing that it helps in the elimination of the bacteria responsible for occurrence of eczema very fast. Also, it prevents the growth of other bacteria's, because of the huge antibacterial and anti-fungal potential.
- Because of the great amount of fiber in apple cider vinegar, it helps the body to flush toxins out of the system very fast.
- One of the most irritating effects of eczema is the itchiness. This vinegar in combination with other natural ingredients makes a great relief from itchiness.
- Not only it will help you with elimination of the bacteria, but at the same time will help you with cell renewal. Due to the high amount of beta-carotene, regular use of apple cider vinegar will do amazing change to your skin complexion.
- In order to prevent or fight eczema you should first have a strong immune system. Therefore the nutritional composition of this vinegar is a great and important boost for your immunity. Apple cider vinegar has a lot of good and rare nutrients, including vitamin B1, minerals, riboflavin, acetic acid, pectin and mineral salts. According to the experts, these ingredients have the power to prevent eczema.
- Apple cider vinegar has a great amount of potassium. Potassium has a great ability to relieve allergy symptoms, balance the pH value of our skin and act like an effective astringent agent.
So What is the Best Apple Vinegar Solution and Treatment?
In order to use apple vinegar in the treatment of eczema you should make a mix of two simple ingredients. First, you take 2 tbsp. raw and organic apple cider vinegar and add 2 tbsp. purified water.
After the mix is blended, take 2 or 3 cotton balls and soak them in the mixture. Next, take the cotton balls and apply them directly to the inflamed skin area.
You should repeat the treatment until you notice some improvement. However, although is known as a natural and healthy way to treat eczema still you should be careful when using it.
If you have very sensitive skin, this ratio of apple cider vinegar to water is not recommended for you. In that case, take a half cup of purified water and only a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar.
So now that you know how to use apple cider vinegar to treat eczema, start using it and get rid of chemical creams and drugs. You will be amazed by the results on your skin.

Hi there
I have a website already up and running, and need someone to help me improve the MAIN PAGE to have content better displayed.
Design is 80% done, all work that is left is looking at it with a different eye, finding ways to improve location of items and making it look awesome.
Website: [login to view URL]
The current main page layout looks nice and works, however it needs to be improved in order to make user experience better. Currently it's difficult to navigate through the different areas and find content. I want it to be easy to see everything from the front page, as well as to create the design for a few other pages.
All new design should to follow the same style of the current layout, just improved.
Some ideas of what I would like:
- One of the grey columns should disappear to make it 2 columns rather than 3, so white area can be enlarged.
- Within the white area, now wider, different blocks should segment types of contents. Each block will show one article for that area in bigger size and others smaller. E.g. a block for "The project" showing articles related to the project, first one being bigger and then the older ones smaller. Other segments are "Vanda the van" – for posts about the car, "Videos", "Photos" and "Trip Journal". Blocks should be visually appealing.
- I am attaching a draft I made previously for reference, you can compare the draft to the existing website and it should clarify the ideas.
Should you be successful I will be hiring you continuously to work with me. So then again, my main requirement is for someone with GREAT designer skills.

|Finish line shot taken by Philippe Legace
Shortly after the gun sounded I found myself alongside Devin Featherstone trotting away at a comfortable pace well slower than last years vomiting inducing one, this made me happy. Its a lot easier to do when you have a partner in crime deciding to induce the same tactics. Around the 7K mark we found ourselves running off course, we ran around 1K off course, stood around for a minute, scratched our heads and ran back from where we came from, where, to our chagrin we saw 5 big signs pointing us to the right, duh! It might have been my over the top cheering and high fiving other runners but I blame Devin for pointing out the smoking hot chicks and keeping my head on a constant swivel either way, finding yourself off course is apart of trail running. We got back on course and settled into a groove again. I didn't quite get comfortable until the 20 K mark, at that point I found myself slowly pulling away for Devin. Only a couple minutes later I bit it on a rocky descent, double rolled out of it and kneeled there for a second doing a systems check. My shoulder felt achy and right calf tightened but otherwise was a full go. Devin caught up and i cruised with him for awhile. In the next 5K my calf really started to shorten and with my "A" race in November I was cool pulling the plug if need be but at the beginning of the third leg the tightened eased and my stride opened again.
The third leg was fun, unlike last year when it felt like David Beckham kicked me in the nuts. I noticed that starting slower paid off and my general fitness level was better than years past. The trail in the second half of that race can be really enjoyable as long as you are not wishing upon death. I skittered lower and lower knowing very well I'd need to climb out of this hell I was burying myself in and my climbing legs were stowed somewhere between boxes in my attic. The climb out of leg three wasn't as disgusting as I remember and arrived back at the staging area to start leg 4 still feeling fresh.
|Richard Reid, Tyson Smith, and me
Starting leg 5 my right lower leg started to tighten again but only upon the climbing so I decided to back off on the intensity and not aggravate things any further. Leg 5 runs parallel to many other trails of previous legs, this was fun cuz I'd see many of my friends enjoying the trails just as much as I was. I finished in 3rd place and in a time of 4:26 still feeling relatively fresh. Given the extra K my time was about the same as last year but the effort and enjoyment made this years Grizzly ultra an absolute success and a boost in confidence going into my fall/winter race schedule. Congrats go out to Tyson Smith and Richard Reid with finishing strong in 1st and 2nd places respectively. Big congrats to Nadine Mueller for finishing in 4:37 in first and setting a new CR but most of all thanks to Grizzly mountain events and all there volunteers for once again putting on a world class event.
As for my three goals going into the race, the first two were a success. As for the hair thing, I had a few comments comparing me to Jeff Daniels in Dumb and Dumber.

My wife and I where very happy with this location and the B&B. Very quite and clean. the bed was comfortable and the bathroom is clean. The breakfasts that Monica and Rosa prepare are fantastic. Micheal is funny and has lots of information about the area and surrounding areas. Monica (the owner) is a great resource for places to eat. Monica, Rosa, And Michael made us feel like part of the family. We will defiantly stay here again.

We decided to make a road trip after receiving a Texas wedding invitation and New Orleans was a city on our bucket list. We made the trip in our all-electric Tesla which makes ease of charging priority #1. We found Canal Street Inn on the Tesla 'destination charger' map, read the reviews and booked immediately. So glad we did! We arrived a too early for check-in, but Monica welcomed us with keys to our room and gave us, New Orleans newbies, ideas for a wonderful afternoon and evening. The Canal Street trolley stop (right in front of the inn) made seeing The Big Easy so convenient. The inn is delightful, breakfasts so yummy and Monica's hospitality simply heartwarming! If our travels bring us back to New Orleans, we're sure to stay here again. :) Donna Linski Virginia

The inn is lovely and in a great location. The Suite was perfect for us, especially the comfy bed! Mrs. Monica was an excellent host, she even prepared me a special ginger tea to soothe my throat after I caught a cold from staying out in the rainy weather. We will definitely be back, thanks!

Our hostess, Monica, and her staff were warm and welcoming! We enjoyed sitting outside of the Inn munching on fresh pecans, the interior of the Inn was nicely decorated, our room was very comfortable and inviting and the breakfasts were delicious! The convenience of having the streetcar stop in front of the Inn was so helpful for us to travel throughout New Orleans without a car!

Canal Street Inn exceeded my expectations. The pictures online don't give it justice. The room I stayed in was the Royal Street Room and it was beautiful. The staff was wonderful and breakfast was amazing. I slept good every night. There is nothing that I would change about the place. Thank you all for the wonderful service. Love Chardee.

Thank you for the beautiful review. I am very happy to know that you enjoyed the breakfast. Thank you again for selecting the Canal Street Inn. Monica

Fortunately we were double booked at Fleur de Lis so we were able to enjoy the superb Canal Street Inn. Monica and Christina were so helpful and such fun. They served wonderful breakfasts and suggested places to visit and to dine at. It is a fabulous old house with beautiful furnishings etc.
5 on May 02, 2016
My husband and I stayed here three nights last week and couldn't have made a better choice. It is a large, beautiful historic home with large guest rooms with the Canal Street Streetcar stopping across the street which made for convenient traveling throughout the city. Our room was large, well furnished and comfortable. The bed was comfortable and the room and attached bathroom was spotless. Breakfast was served each morning on the back screened in porch and the food was wonderful. Wine, coffee and tea was available 24 hours a day if you wanted it. The gorgeous front porch was a great place to relax and talk with other guests. Monica the owner and Christina the innkeeper are two of the main reasons this B&B made it a favorite of ours. They are both very friendly, funny and helpful. When we checked in we were told about a quickly put-together Second Line Parade and Tribute to Prince later than afternoon and we did go. This is why I prefer B&Bs to hotels. Hotel staff is most likely not to even know about local events going on but B&B owners and staff are part of the community. My husband and I own a B&B ourselves and are picky about where we stay. The Canal Street Inn met all our expectations and we definitely recommend this inn.
5 on March 20, 2016
I can not say enough about this wonderful place. This was my first experience staying at a bed and breakfast and it was fantastic!! The minute we arrived we were warmly greeted. We instantly felt comfortable and at home. The house itself is beautiful with attention to detail. Our room was large and very comfortable. The breakfast was delicious and we were able to relax and enjoy the company. There were nine of us all together and we were well taken care of. I will recommend the Canal Street Inn to anyone staying in New Orleans. We will be staying there again on our next trip. A true gem and a great experience.
5 on January 09, 2016
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Inn. The staff provided us with a 5 star experience. They made us feel at home and we would highly recommend this B & B to our friends and neighbors. We hope to visit New Orleans again and the Canal Street Inn would be our #1 choice of places to stay. We want to thank the staff at the Canal Street Inn for making our first visit to New Orleans a great experience.
5 on May 12, 2015
So glad we chose the Canal Street Inn for a long weekend in New Orleans! Wonderful the minute we walked in the door! Monica and Michael ensured we felt right at home and they were the greatest hosts. Very relaxing environment and they were very helpful. Every inch of the Inn was beautiful, comfortable and well-appointed. Each breakfast was delicious and gorgeous. Location was perfect - it was quiet and easy walking distance to great restaurants and the streetcar. Cannot imagine a better experience than this!
5 on May 12, 2015
The Canal Street Inn was recommended to us by a family member as a convenient welcoming place to stay with a great breakfast. This Inn did not disappoint! Monica and Michael are wonderful hosts who make you feel welcome and very well cared for. We loved the variety of the breakfasts which were absolutely delicious. Our room was comfortable and quiet and nicely appointed. We will stay here again!
4.0 on May 02, 2015
A comfortable and charming inn right on the trolley line, making it convenient to get just about anywhere you may want to go without needing a car. A fabulous breakfast is served each morning with a choice of 8 am or 9 am seatings. Our room was a comfortable first floor (basement) room, quite large and convenient , with a refrigerator right outside the door. The inn has lovely style in the common areas, particularly the dining area and parlor, as well as a front porch and a screened back porch. There is outside seating as well on a veranda with arbors. Thoroughly enjoyed the charm and hospitality at Canal Street Inn.
5 on April 17, 2015
We can't say enough good things about our stay at the Canal Street Inn. Michael was a true delight, as was Maria. The atmosphere, the comfort, the food, the location all was perfect. I recommend this B&B without reservation, we will be back and I advise anyone visiting New Orleans to consider staying here, you will be delighted. Michael, see you next time! Sheila & Jerry
5 on August 18, 2014
As B&B owners ourselves, we definitely enjoyed meeting Monica and her husband, discussing the details of the business. The mansion, the grounds, common areas, as well as the suites were immaculately clean and impeccably designed. Breakfast was plentiful, delicious, and beautifully presented. The owners did a fantastic job transforming this historic mansion into a comfortable and relaxing place for the guests without detracting from its historic ambiance. The location is perfect to visit New Orleans as well as plantation homes such as "Laura's plantation, "Oak Allie ", "St. Joseph" , and many other gorgeous antebellum homes in the area. We most certainly recommend "the Canal Street Inn" to anyone visiting New Orleans and the surrounding area!!!
4.6 on May 22, 2014
You'll feel at home as soon as you walk through the door of the Canal Street Inn.The owner and staff are gracious and welcoming,putting you at ease immediately.The rooms are peaceful,quiet and relaxing,providing a perfect place to unwind after a day at Jazz Fest or a day of sightseeing.The daily breakfast is creative and delicious and served at a beautifully well appointed table. If you choose to visit the Canal Street Inn,I think you'll want to return again and again.We certainly do!

Truly enjoyed our stay ay the Inn. Monica and her staff are absolutely wonderful and their hospitality made this visit to New Orleans extremely worth while. Will come back. Ray and Vicki Williams

Our stay at the Canal Street Inn in New Orleans was exceptional. I have stayed in B&B's across the country and Canal Street Inn is at the top of my list! The ambiance of the home and the hospitality of the staff were outstanding. Monica makes everyone feel welcome. She and Teresa see to your every need. They are personable and very accommodating. The Canal Street Inn will always be my first pick when I stay in New Orleans.
5 on January 13, 2014
Great location. Quietly up Canal Street, but good access to French Quarter on trolley. Monica is a gracious hostess and superb cook. Charming early 1900 Victorian manor. Will return and recommend highly to friends. Good value in a fun town. Thanks, Monica.

Staying at the Canal Street Inn was a delight. My first time at a B&B and I was not disappointed. The Royal Street room was just as pictured and had wonderful amenities and charm. The Inn was clean and furnished beautifully. Monica, Teresa and staff were sweet and accommodating. Since I was traveling alone, having the opportunity to dine with other guest for breakfast was especially a treat. The food was well prepared, delicious, ample and served with genuine care. The street car line runs literally right in front of the house and takes you most every where. I was told some of the connecting lines were under construction, mostly to the Garden District, but a bus or short walk got you to the next point. A convenient short walk to several local eateries and a few stores if you need. I felt at ease walking in the neighborhood. I chose not to be encumbered with a car but understand there is some parking. The cost was very reasonable. My only regret is that having only 3 days and each packed with adventure, I did not get to spend much time relaxing in the receiving room with a glass of wine or hot cup of tea. Nor did I have the opportunity to relish the lovely sun porch and gardens. Guess I will have to make a return visit in the early summer or fall. Should feel a lot like going home.

The location was perfect... a quite neighborhood only minutes away from the French Quarter via the streetcar, which stops right outside the front door... the rooms were lovely, the breakfasts were delicious and the staff was professional and personable. We couldn't have asked for more. Susan & Craig
5 on August 12, 2013
This is a gorgeous and well-run B&B, convenient to everything and spacious and well-decorated throughout. Our room was beautiful and comfortable, with ceilings that seemed to rise to infinity. Our hosts were welcoming and accommodating and provided perfect suggestions for outings (e.g., LA Children's Museum is great for a tiny grandchild when it's hot outside.) It was a great experience.
5 on August 05, 2013
I stayed at the Canal Street Inn for a weekend girls' trip in August 2013. This was our first experience staying at a bed and breakfast, but I heard great things about them. So I had high expectations. I must say, the Canal Street Inn exceeded my expectations! The ambiance makes you feel as though you are a part of New Orleans. Monica and the staff are amazing! The food was delicious! And the room was beautiful and comfortable. Oh, and the fact that the streetcar stops right in front of the inn is icing on the cake! I will DEFINITELY stay at the Canal Street Inn any time I'm in New Orleans in the future. No questions asked!

We were staying in New Orleans for a couple of nights following a cruise and chose the Canal Street Inn--what a fabulous choice. My husband wasn't feeling well after getting off the ship, and the staff was so attentive. They provided me a breakfast tray to take to him and were so very helpful. The Inn was spa-like--wine was provided, along with water, coffee/tea; bathrobes were awaiting us, along with soft music and all the comforts of home. The streetcar stop is directly in front of the Inn, (quick French Quarter Access) and it is extremely close to a couple of quaint restaurants and a drug store. I highly recommend this B&B!
4.2 on June 27, 2013
Nice staff and a nice room located in a perfect spot. Easy access to all of New Orleans in a very safe feeling location.

My wife and I visited the Canal Street Inn on our honeymoon in New Orleans. We loved it! The pictures on the website don't even do the rooms justice! Monica and the staff are as helpful and friendly as can be. Plus, the Inn is literally sitting right across the street from one of the streetcar stops, making for extremely easy transportation. Next time we are in New Orleans we will definitely be staying there again.

I am a big fan on New Orleans. I've been lucky enough to visit about 10 times (so far) in my life and plan on going back many more. When my then fiance and I were looking for a fun place to elope, New Orleans was top of the list. After running around and checking about 100 different BnB's online, we decided on The Canal Street Inn. Boy, did we chose well. The Canal Street Inn is an elegant belle epoque mansion in the heart of Mid City. As we were there for Jazz Fest AND my husband had never been to the Quarter, this location - right in the middle of everything - was perfect for us. The rooms are huge, elegantly furnished and well appointed with rich linens and thick fluffy robes. The breakfast is sumptuous and cooked to order each day. In the evening you can enjoy the huge front porch or the parlor with a glass of wine. Best of all, is the staff. The proprietor, Monica Ramsey, is amazing! She went so far out of her way to make our wedding perfect - she even ran around and found my bouquet for me from a local florist since it was impossible for me to bring one from California. She is a true gem, generous to a fault! Since our wedding there in April of 2012, my husband and I have returned twice, once as we meandered cross country for a move to North Carolina to catch some R&R between the move and again for Jazz Fest 2013. The Canal Street Inn just keeps getting better and better. We already have our room booked for Jazz Fest 2014 and plan to return to our home away from home every year!

We took a 4 day vacation in NOLA in June 2013. We made a great choice in staying at this Inn. It is a perfect place to "go home" to after exploring New Orleans' Bourbon Street, French Quarters, the French Market, and the many restaurants about town. Monica, our host, was very generous and helpful providing us guides as to where to go to enjoy our trip. The street car which runs across the street was most convenient and very economical way to see the city. Riding around the city on the street car gave us the chance to see the New Orleans locals' day to day ways. Monica's kitchen is always busy in the morning as she makes delicious breakfast for the guests. We enjoyed her company and stories around the table and around the big house. The room we stayed in Canal Street 1 is spacious, clean, cozy and comfortable and most special ...so quiet at night when we needed to rest after a wonderful day and night in town. If you want to enjoy your trip to New Orleans, stay at this B&B.

Three of us ladies were on a road trip to New Orleans and enjoyed every moment of our stay at the Canal Street Inn. Monica, theresa and Dawn were friendly, helpful and showed just perfect southern hospitality. Should we ever get to the Big Easy again there's no doubt where we would stay !! And, we do highly reccomend the Inn to anyone going there.

We spent three nights at the Canal Street Inn and enjoyed our stay very much. The historic home is beautifully maintained, very clean and classy. Our bed was huge and comfortable, the shower excellent, and the breakfasts were very tasty. Located right on the street car line, it was a simple trip to get down to the French Quarter and every other place we wanted to go.
4.8 on April 22, 2013
This relaxing B&B is a very convenient 15-20 minute street car ride from all the action in the French quarter. We were happy to stay in a quieter area, and since the street car stop is directly in front of the inn, we could still come back mid day to change for dinner and rest without feeling like we were wasting site seeing time. The inn really enhanced our trip. Monica is a wonderful cook, and breakfast was prompt and delicious. Full of old charm, my husband and I really enjoyed reading in the parlor or on the front porch. Our room, street car #1, was very spacious with a huge bathroom and walk in shower. We will definitely stay here again if we make it back to New Orleans.

Close enough to downtown to walk, but far enough away to enloy quiet romance. Option we chose was a studio apartment above the Canal ST Bistro, Management was accomodating and respectful, Bistro was extraordinary in both fare and friendliness. Room was quaint, functional, private and romantc. Trolley stop right out front 20 min to the waterfront, french quarter, transfer to the garden district. We chose often to walk because of safe neighborhood, friendly locals, great restaurants and bistros within 10-20 min walk. Highly recommended! You won't be disappointed.

I stayed there the weekend of the Endymion parade, 2/8-2/11. From the moment I arrived until the morning I left, I was treated like family. The room (#5) was fabulous, and very spacious, plenty room for 3 ( king size bed and day bed). The atmosphere is charming as was Monica the owner. I will certainly be back next year for the Endymion weekend.

A friend and I stayed there for the Super Bowl. It is a lovely B&B. The innkeeper greeted us very warmly, gave us a great tour and took the time to explain the streetcar system to us. The streetcar stops right out front, so making it around the area was easy and convenient. Breakfast was freshly made and delicious, there were snacks and beverages always available, and it was a quiet retreat away from the Super Bowl activities.

This was our first ever stay at a B&B and it was great. One of those trips that you day dream about for weeks after you return home. Monica was so nice and helpful pointing out how to get to the places we wanted to see, serving fine wine every night and just making us feel at home in this beautiful 100 plus year old home. We already miss Canal Street Inn and can't wait till we can come back.

Our hostess was the key to making our stay at the Canal Street Inn both pleasant and memorable. As soon as we arrived at the inn, she was prompt to ask us what we had already done in the city and what we still planned to do. Upon learning that we wanted to do a cemetery tour, she called and made reservations for us! Anything at all into which we expressed interest, she was quick to make recommendations or offer help. On top of all of this, our room and the house itself were absolutely beautiful, and breakfast was divine. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Monica the owner was great. I had to arrive late and she called me to communicate how to get the keys and set up my breakfast. Helpful and a perfect hostess throughout my stay. Quiet and beautiful house with great charm. My only very MINOR complaint is that there was no dresser or table in the room so I could unpack a few of my clothes for my 2 day stay. Other than that, the room was great and the bed was extremely comfortable. Thanks Monica and I will tell all my friends about your B&B.

monica was more than helpful, a great source of information and makes you feel very welcome. many nice reccommendations were made by her. the place is lovely and nicely appointed. would definitely go back the strretcar is right out front, but because of all the construction on the strret car lines, not very user freindly since you have to switch over to a bus and it may take multiple transfers to get to your destination.

For a long weekend away nowhere could be better than the Canal Street Inn. Away from the chaos of Bourbon St, yet just a streetcar ride away from all the fun, this is a wonderful respite. Monica is a very accomodating hostess, offering her knowledge of where to go for what and willingly accomodating breakfast preferences. The house is a wonderful example of the quiet opulance of the turn of the last century with high ceilings and ornate archways, ceiling medallions, and mantelpieces in every room. The sitting areas and garden are great for sequestering yourself away with a good book. Highly recommended!

First off, my entire family would like to thank Monica and her staff for making my daughter and new son-in law wedding reception on September 15, 2012, a beautiful, fun and relaxing experience. Monica took care of my daughter so well that it gave me time to actually catch my breath. Also, the taste testing at the restaurant with my daughter, sisters and mother was so stress free and delicious!! From the gorgeous Inn, food and hospitality to the wonderful outdoor atmosphere, she truly made their day special. I would recommend anyone looking into getting married or like my family, having an outdoor reception, to take a serious look at this Inn. You will not regret your decision!! The bride will be very grateful and happy to have almost everything at her fingertips from the food and drinks to the cake being decorated. AND Monica even spent her time taking beautiful photos of the reception. She blended into the atmosphere that we didn't even notice her! What a special gift she gave to us all that evening!! Leslie w/Mr. & Mrs Woods-West
Innkeeper Response
I'm so happy you enjoyed the wedding reception at the Inn. It was a great pleasure to meet such a warm family, I truly enjoyed working with all of you. I am glad we were able to achieve a stress free reception for the bride/groom and family. Best of luck to the newlyweds!

My husband and I stayed this past weekend at the Canal Street Inn for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We had never been to NOLA and were a little concerned that we wouldn't feel comfortable at a B&B, but I was given a gift certificate from bedandbreakfast.com as a gift. Canal Street Inn was comfortable, clean and absolutely beautiful. The inn is beautifully kept up with all the old world charm you would want. Breakfast was delicious and wonderfully presented. In fact, Monica made us feel so comfortable that on our second day there we ended up just hanging out at the Inn reading and relaxing in our room or on the beautiful back porch. Monica was a great host. She gave us a map to the city with directions to all the places we wanted to go, made our dinner reservations and called us taxi's when we needed them. I liked the inn's location because we were a little out of the hustle of the main French Quarter but just a street car (stop is right across the street from the inn) or a 5-7min cab ride to Bourbon Street. They also recommended some lovely restaurants within walking distance from the inn and I even found a place to get a pedicure. All in all, I can understand why people keep coming back to the Canal Street Inn. Thank you to Monica and her staff for making our 10 year anniversary amazing!!! -Raina and Todd
Innkeeper Response
Thank you for the fantastic review Raina and Todd. I am so glad your first B&B experience was such a positive experience. I was happy to have you choose Canal Street Inn to celebrate your anniversary! I hope that you are safe from "Sandy". Hope to see you back for another anniversary!

My husband and I eloped on September 1. We drove from Texas, and Hurricane Isaac was not going to interfere with our plans. After too many hours in gridlock traffic due to the flooding on I-10, we finally made it to the Inn. It was quiet, very cozy, and we immediately felt at home. We had a fantastic night's sleep, and had a wonderful start to the morning of our wedding with Monica's incredible hospitality and fantastic cooking. We found out at the last minute that the place in Pirate Alley where our ceremony was to be held was flodded out. With some quick thinking and Monica's permission we had our ceremony in the backyard of the Inn. Our wedding day and honeymoon could not have been more PERFECT. We had such a great stay that we plan to come back to the Canal Street Inn every year for our anniversary. Thank you to the staff at the Canal Street Inn for making our wedding and honeymoon a dream come true!

Arriving in NOLA two days after Issac, The Canal Street Inn was one of the only hotels/B&Bs with the power back on, so it was meant to be! We loved our stay the first night so much that we decided to stay another night. Our room was beautiful and Monica was the most lovely and gracious hostess. She welcomed us right in (and let me stay with my little cat). Wine was served in the evening, and a delicious, hot breakfast in the morning. I can not say enough wonderful things about this charming, historic Inn. I will recommend it to anyone I know who will be staying in NOLA! Added bonus: it's located right on Canal Street and there is a trolly car that will stop right in front and take you directly down to the French Quarter in one shot! It couldn't be more convenient!!! Thank you, Monica!!! Cheers, Jessica Fowler & Christopher Stephens

My wife and I stayed at Canal Street Inn for our 11th wedding anniversary a few weeks ago. With two small children at home, it was a much needed weekend away to ourselves. We were lucky to get one of the off street parking spaces behind the Inn, so when we parked, we never moved our vehicle until we left. We rode the streetcars everywhere. The daily passes were an outstanding value at $3.00 each. The Inn itself was everything, if not more, than I was expecting. We had never stayed at a bed and breakfast before, but we WILL be back. Monica was a super friendly host, who made the most scrumptious breakfasts for us. The room (Canal Street Suite) was spacious, with a very comfortable, firm bed. It had a very "homey" feel to it. So much more comfortable than a hotel! It was a great first time for us.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Canal Street B&B. Monica gave us great advice on places to go and things to do while were were in New Orleans. She also made reservations for us at two outstanding restaurants. Access to the trolley is almost right in front of the Inn, and we used it extensively.

What a charming place to stay! My husband and I were delighted at the comfort and cleanliness of this B&B. We stayed in the Audubon Suite and I can honestly say this was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in with the best night sleep. Monica pays great attention to detail and is a delightful hostess. Excellent choice!

We visit Nola 2-3 times a year and loved our stay here so much we have already booked another 4 night stay! My boyfriend rides in Endymion so when we found this B&B right on the Endymion route, we were thrilled! We knew it would be a good location when we booked it but it turned out to be PERFECT. We were a 10-15 min cab ride down to the Superdome, the streetcar is right out front which is always delightful & will take you right into the Quarter if you want & a Walgreens right down the street for anything you might need. The rooms are beautiful, clean & comfortable. We were in the Royal Room which was spacious with a large bathroom- the water pressure is AMAZING! Our friend traveling with us was in the Orleans Street room, which was large with a sitting area and modern bathroom. Monica, the proprietor, is super sweet, welcoming & helpful about the area, cabs anything else you might need. In fact, our friend had a little too much fun one night. When she didn't show up for breakfast, she offered to make her a special breakfast and some tea for us to bring up to her to try to make her feel better. The whole house is stunning & inviting. We were so worn out one evening that we simply helped ourselves to a glass of the wine they set out in the evenings and read quietly in the front common area- we felt right at home. We have stayed in several B&B's as I prefer them hotels, and this is by far our favorite!
5 on June 28, 2012
This is a great bed and breakfast that I've been going to (when it was known as the Block-Keller House) for almost 10 years. The management and staff are accessible and friendly. The staff is also very discreet and unintrusive - you don't know they're there unless you would like something. If you are coming to New Orleans and want a place to stay with history, close to the French Quarter but not in it (the Inn is right across the street from the historic street car line) and ice cold a/c throughout the house, this is a wonderful place to stay.

We certainly enjoyed our 3day getaway to New Orleans and our stay at the Canal Street Inn topped off a perfecf stay. Beautiful home and grounds and our breakfast was delicious. With the trolley stop right in front of the house we never needed or used our auntomobile. Our room was clean and comfortable....we will go back. We love The Big Easy and consider ourselves fortunate to have found the Canal Street Inn.

We visited in April, 2012. Couldn't have found a better setting or host. We (3sisters) stayed in room 3 - spacious, well appointed, beautifully decorated. Delighted to find the room ready for us at noon! Hostess was always available to answer questions, offer suggestions as well as provide wonderful extras (snacks, wine, etc.) to our stay. Trolley car was actually easier to reach French Quarter/riverfront than the St. Charles street line. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend it to others.

We enjoyed two nights at this lovely inn. Monica was extremely helpful and offered to store our luggage while we explored the French Quarter. Fortunately, our room was ready the minute we walked in the door (at 10am!). The location is perfect since you have access to the streetcar which zips you directly to the French Quarter, plus you have the quiet of a residential neighborhood. The rooms in this stately home are well appointed and not overly stuffy/highbrow--my 15 year old son felt comfortable here. I would definitely stay here again. Wonderful experience, great breakfast!

Stayed 4 nights over St. Patrick's day weekend in March - Canal Street Inn was fantastic. The property is beautiful and comfortable, very well maintained. We had a very large and private room, nicely furnished and interesting gabled upstairs space. Monica was a terrific host, and we enjoyed the relaxing breakfasts and meeting other guests. A real plus for Canal Street Inn is its location in the mid-town area, just a couple miles via streetcar from downtown. The relative quiet and peacefulness, and space were a highly welcome retreat from the ventures around town, and there are great neighborhood restaurants and bars within a few blocks walk. City Park is also a short streecar ride as well. Can't wait to come back!

Location- Wonderful, Access to downtown- Fantastic (street car stop in front of Inn), Management- warm, friendly - Exactly what we would expect from a New Orleans Host. We will absolutely stay at the Canal Street Inn when we return to New Orleans, as will our family and friends. PS……..Homemade Breakfast is incredible! Kari&Alex

We had a wonderful time staying at Canal Street Inn! The house is beautiful, the property is easy to find and the street car stops right in front of the house. Monica was an amazing host and makes super yummy breakfasts, keeping in mind any dietary restrictions or special requests! We stayed in Room 1 and the room and the bathroom were good sized and quiet, even though it's at the front of the house. Very homey atmosphere. Excellent value. Definitely would stay again! -James and Amy Comer, Lumberton, Texas

Free off-street parking! (Putting that first because this info. is not shared in the description.) We stayed here for a weekend in February. We arrived 2 hours late because of bad weather and the host was not there. However, I called her and she worked it out so that we could check in to our room in her absence, which was very nice of her. Our room was really cool (Room 1) - nice old house with high ceilings and big rooms. Comfortable bed and very quiet. Nice big bathroom and shower! Also, we had our own thermostat in our room, which is AWESOME for me because I'm usually 10 degrees warmer than the average person and I burn up if I can't control the temp. around me! The streetcar stop is right in front of the house. Just allow yourself a good 30 minutes to ride into the French Quarter because sometimes it's busy and makes lots of stops. But the streetcar is air conditioned. Have exact change ready - $1.25. The host family is very friendly, doesn't hassle you but is there to answer questions and give you a good breakfast. We will definitely stay there again because it is much cheaper and quieter than staying inside the Quarter, and parking is FREE and off the street!

My business partners and I had a most enjoyable time with Monica at the home. We looked forward to comming back each evening and socializing and relaxing before turning in each night. It was very clean and homey feeling and the food was wonderful. Monica saw to it that our stay was the relaxing inviting and atmospher of New Orlends. This will defintenly become our home away from home while in NO. Jeff and Ophelia

Upon arrival you will feel like you own this mansion. I already miss waking up to the smell of that breakfast throughout the entire house. It was fabulous. Everything was tastefully done and organically prepared including fresh fruit right off the trees in the back courtyard. coffee and tea with sweet snacks even when we stayed out really late! I highly recommend staying here for a true Southern experience done RIGHT! I will be back!!! -Roxane J.

I came to the Inn for my Thanksgiving break and it was lovely. The Inn keeper, Monica, was very sweet and welcoming and helped us with all of our necessities. I'm a vegetarian so I was glad to hear that she could accommodate to that for breakfast. The streetcar passed right in front of the home which was very convenient while touring the city. Overall, I had a great stay!

Just returned from a wonderful 3 night stay at the Canal Street Inn. Perfect hospitality very friendly owner, eager to please and ensure that your stay is perfect. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The breakfast, different each morning, but always delicious and made fresh for each guest. Even though the Inn was booked out we felt very well looked after. Nothing was too much trouble for Monica Ramsey the owner, the weekend we were there, a wedding party was staying and what a perfect location for wedding celebrations and photo's etc. We also visited the Canal Street Bistro/Eco Cafe just up the road and had a wonderful relaxed meal. Could not have asked for a better place to stay. Thank you.

I stayed here this past weekend and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Monica, the owner, is lovely. She is adorable, and although obviously a busy woman, makes you feel welcome. The rooms are fairly priced and there is a mix of modern artwork and antiques. You are allowed to help yourself to wine and snacks if desired and there is a piano guests can play. Luckily, we had a fantastic pianist staying at the hotel with us. Everything about the place was beautiful and perfect.
