Motorola violated Microsoft patent, rules judge
The International Trade Commission has ruled that Motorola Mobility did not violate six of seven Microsoft smartphone patents in a decision claimed as a victory by both companies.
The remaining patent is one of seven Windows Phone and Windows Mobile patents which Microsoft claimed was being infringed. US Patent No. 6,370,566 covers 'generating meeting requests and group scheduling from a mobile device'. Offending handsets include the Droid 2, Droid X, Cliq XT, Devour and Backflip.
In the event, the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) ruled that the other six patents weren't being violated.
"We are very pleased that the majority of the rulings were favorable to Motorola Mobility," says Scott Offer, senior vice president and general counsel of Motorola Mobility.
"The ALJ's initial determination may provide clarity on the definition of the Microsoft 566 patent for which a violation was found and will help us avoid infringement of this patent in the US market."
However, the patent that was upheld appears to cover the ability to schedule meeting requests from mobile devices - a pretty basic feature for business users in particular.
"If they're on travel or even just at lunch or in a meeting room, they want to be able to schedule meetings without having to go back to their office. Scheduling meetings is also increasingly popular on some social networks, so it's probably a feature for both enterprise users and consumers," says patent expert Florian Mueller.
"It remains to be seen how Motorola will address this issue as well as any other Android patent issues that will present themselves along the way, with many other cases and dozens of other patents still waiting for a decision."
With Motorola Mobility already in Google's shopping cart, the search giant must be worried. it's buying Motorola Mobility specifically to protect Android vendors from patent lawsuits such as this.

Clearhead is the third fastest growing company in Central Texas, as announced at last night's Fast 50 Awards. This marks the second consecutive year Clearhead has been named one of the region's fastest growing companies by the Austin Business Journal, jumping two spots from its fifth place ranking in 2015.
"What a great time to be building a business in Austin! It's an honor to be recognized again. We are so fortunate to be able to build our team with the benefit of such vibrant local economy and talent. And, of course, I'm so proud of the Clearhead team," said Clearhead founder and CEO Matty Wishnow.
The Fast 50 rankings are based on compounded revenue growth between 2013-2015. To qualify, companies must have experienced dramatic growth during the past three years. As you can see from the complete rankings, Clearhead is in great company.
What's lead to our significant growth since our birth in 2012? Unlike most agencies in the digital optimization space, we've spent decades on the other side of the table. Clearhead was founded by three former ecommerce executives (Matty, Ryan and Sam). Through their firsthand experience leading digital teams, they came to realize that data-driven design and optimization isn't just another thing…it's the thing.
We're proud to work with some of the world's leading brands on Digital Optimization Programs that include testing and personalization, Data-Driven Redesigns and Optimization Accelerators. Through our engagements we help digital executives and their teams solve their most critical customer experience problems through data.
"Thank you to our amazing, kind, and talented team. The real award is getting to work together everyday. Thank you Austin. You're the 5th Beatle in this. And thank you ABJ. Hope to see you next year," said co-founder and Chief Product Officer, Ryan Garner.
In addition to its Fast 50 award, Clearhead was also honored to be named one of the Best Places to Work in Central Texas by the Austin Business Journal early this summer.
Interested in joining the team? We're hiring.

ALERT! Mortgage Rates on The Rise Tonight
We're up, we're down, we're up, we're down. Anyone getting motion sickness yet? After last week's decrease, mortgage rates are on their way back up again. In fact many of the country's major lenders have already increased their fixed rates as of this morning but several of our non-bank lenders have yet to increase their rates. However, many of them issued warning this morning that their rates would rise as of midnight tonight and the rest of our lenders should follow suit later this week. But that doesn't mean it's too late to lock in a great rate if you are able to submit an online application to First Foundation today or over the next couple of days.
Did you know that don't have to have a property in mind to apply for a mortgage pre-approval? The primary function of a pre-approval is to secure a rate for a certain period of time, usually 90 to 120 days, while you shop for a home, protected from the possibility of rate hikes. A pre-approval is an excellent idea for home-buyers, not just when rates are on the move, but to get a good idea of your price range, payment tolerance and to head off any possible snags you may run into when you are arranging the actual mortgage.
Lenders will not review things like your paystub and letter of employment during the pre-approval process but our lenders do examine your credit report for any potential issues with the application. Our licensed mortgage brokers obtain the credit report as part of the application process so typically, no mortgage documentation is required from you at the pre-approval application stage, ( that said, if our mortgage professionals feel it is in your best interest to review some supporting documentation during the pre-approval stage, they may ask for these documents at this point).
You can complete our simple, online mortgage application any time of day and one of our licensed mortgage brokers will try to contact you within the next business day – but keep your phone handy because we do attempt to contact you as soon as possible when rates are moving upward. In most cases, a quick conversation to clarify your needs, along with your competed application and credit report is all we need to secure one of our terrific mortgage rates for you when a quick rate hold is required due to increasing rates. Once an interest rate has been secured, we can speak with you in a more in-depth manner about your financial goals to set the right mortgage amount and payment plan that best suits your needs and future aspirations.
As soon as your pre-approval is in hand, you should set out to find your future home as soon as possible because most lenders will not extend a pre-approved mortgage rate unless interest rates have decreased since it was issued. Ask us about recommending a great Realtor if you need one – someone who has gained our trust and possess the dedication and expertise to find you the right home within the available time-frame so the benefit of your pre-approval is not lost!
With rates going up fast, what are you waiting for – complete our online mortgage application now!

But she pulls up after minute. "Get your cock out. " I do as she says and a few seconds later my cock is laid bare. She wraps her tiny Pauk around it, I'm only 6 and a half inches but compared to her hand I looks enormous. Then she pulls my head close and whispers, "I want to hear you moan.
" So I moan into her ear I tell her how wonderful she's making my cock feel and I how I love the feeling her huge breasts which spill out under my fingers. I begin to fondle them as she sucks me off.
Her head bobs up and down in my lap as my moaning increases...the end of the story look at the video above ↑ ↑ ↑

The Healing Sound with Thonla Sonam
The ancient tibetan singing bowls originated in Tibet prior to the advent of Buddhism from India.
To trace their origin and use we must refer back to the ancient Bon religion.
Bon monks were aware of both their value and use for the human body.
In Tibet the Bonpo monks,(the highest class of Bon monks) were considered to be real, actual Shamans; they alone used them for
spiritual healing of people who presented signs of illness.
In India, however, the great Mahasiddha meditators, employed them to rebalance the energetic centres.
With the arrival of Indian Buddhism Padmasambhava and the Bonpo united their common philosophies to harmonize body and mind.
In ancient times value was already given to the body as being one with macrocosm and microcosm.
Both need to think, act and live in one unique togetherness.
In the absence of this Ecosystem an energetic dissonance develops which causes illness.
The bowls are forged with a special composition of seven Metals related to and benefitting from the seven planets of our solar system.
In interceding with the sickness or problem of who ever was undergoing treatment with the bowls, the monks gave great importance to astral influences.
They can be played in correspondence to the chakras, centres which regulate the flow of energy,
the five elements and the five senses thus contributing to the liberation of whatever negativity.
The sound of the tibetan bells generates diverse frequencies which help create energetic waves which put in balance the relationship of body and mind.
During the seminar we will learn to play them, make them resonate using a delicate baton, using this musical instrument to create a healing sound for ourselves and others.
Comfortable clothing is advised, for example tracksuit or long stockings.

Hello lovelies! I feel so overwhelmed and grateful for all the kind words of encouragement following my last post. Sometimes it's just nice to get a warm, virtual hug when feeling a little down in the dumps! You are all very much appreciated, and I feel very touched that you took the time to write. I have picked myself up, and dusted off yesterday's disappointments. Today is feeling a lot brighter!
If you've been following my blog, you'll know that I recently redecorated the master bedroom. I thought that it was done and dusted, but as I'm getting used to it I realise that it is not quite finished. It is still evolving! I really want it to feel more sumptuous and layered, and it seems that the white wall just isn't cutting the mustard. I have been toying with the idea to wallpaper the white wall against the deep, dark teal of the other existing wall, and I think I've finally found a wallpaper I love. Made by Pip Studio, it is not the cheapest, but then one can see why! I received four samples in the post, in four different colourways, and the difficult part is choosing one....They are absolutely yummy!
My initial preference was for the green background, which I still love, but the light blue seems to sit very comfortably next to the teal wall. Then again, I don't want the comfortable option, I want a bit of drama, and the dark blue would add just that, as the it makes the bright colours pop. Oh dear....This is going to take a while me thinks! In the meantime, I have framed these beauties to sit nicely up on a shelf whilst I make up my mind! (And to give me time to save a few pennies!)
I have at last found a home for my beautiful lead glass clock though. It was a gift from hubby thirteen years ago when I gave birth to our daughter. For the last few years it has been stored away, as I was never able to find just the right spot for it. At last it now happily resides next to my bed! The deep colours seemed to have come to life up against that dark wall.
If you can lend me any words of wisdom with regards to a choice of wallpaper, please do! I hope your Monday is full of cheer. Onwards and upwards!

Externally, the elegant poise and purposeful lines owe much to her illustrious sisters, but the Fairline Squadron 55 has some distinguishing features of her own, such as curved aft doors and the unique, scooped shape of the side windows. Moving about the Squadron 55 is safe and easy. There's an internal staircase from the flybridge to the bridgedeck and wide side decks to the forward deck or the saloon and cockpit area. The extra-long flybridge provides a spacious, open-air deck saloon, including a semi-circular dining area with bar, fridge, sink and barbecue griddle. There is also a full-width aft sunbed, and double and single helm seats. With direct access via the internal stairway, or from the cockpit via the teak-tread ladder, this is a favourite part of the boat for owners and guests. At the stern, comprehensive amenities for aft boarding and swimming, and for the stowage of dinghies and recreational equipment, have been made possible by the large, extended bathing platform area design. A hydraulic telescopic passerelle, with in-built dinghy-handling facility, plenty of rope, fender and gear stowage and a hot - cold transom shower are also found here. The spacious and relaxing aft saloon includes a large and sociable semi-circular seating area, an elegant sideboard with TV and VCR and a comprehensively fitted bar with icemaker. The separate dining area is on the bridgedeck, with excellent visibility through the main screen and side windows. The central, low-level galley, equipped to the highest standard, also has easy access to the well-fitted utility room - complete with ironing board. There is also a very convenient internal access door to the engine room from the utility room. Guest accommodation is extensive, as well as beautifully appointed, with a master suite forward and two twin-bedded guest cabins, plus two large washrooms with separate circular shower enclosures. An optional double aft crew cabin can also be chosen, which is already proving to be a popular option. FAIRLINE SQUADRONS: Ever since the introduction of the 62-foot flagship model, the Squadron concept has received worldwide acclaim. The successive introductions of the 65, 59 and 55 have met with equal success, not least for their high standards of craftsmanship and specifications. Fairline draws on the experience of boat owners to improve their product. It's how the Squadron Series was born. Owners said they wanted a large, highly capable and impressive yacht, but they didn't want the cost and privacy-inhibiting presence of a crew on board. They pioneered the trend towards larger integral bathing platforms and swept-stern designs. Initially introduced to protect props and rudders and make access easier, they have now become a major focus of the boat, with showers, storage boxes, wet-lockers and dinghy stowage facilities. Toughened glass windscreens, pantograph wipers on larger boats, substantial 316 stainless steel deck fittings, safety rails and grab-handles, IMCO-approved navigation lights, electric anchor winches, fuel filtration, customized wiring looms and separate circuit-breaker panels are just some of the standard safety items. Universally high equipment specifications are found as standard across the Squadron range. They include generous fuel and fresh water tankage, generators, bow thrusters, multi-feature radars, autopilots and navaids, teak-laid cockpit soles, aft boarding passerelles, space-saving circular showers in uniformly big bathrooms, and interior sprung mattresses on longer-than-average berths. The hull and superstructure of every Squadron is precisely laid up by hand with isophtalic gelcoats and resins, incorporating a substantial grid of bulkheads, frames and stringers with a Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) shell, maintaining the highest build-quality and structural integrity. A through-bolted hull-to-deck joint and, where appropriate, foam sandwich construction add up to high strength with optimum weight and thermal - acoustic efficiency. This translates into a quiet-riding boat of great rigidity and solidity. FAIRLINE BOATS: Fairline features three distinct ranges of power cruiser - the sparkling five-boat Targa range, the three powerful Phantoms, and the elegant and stylish the four-model Squadron Series. At the design and planning stage, Fairline pays particular attention to the demands of long-range passage-making. For example, generous fuel and fresh water tankage is provided to increase range and offshore capability, and the use of space is planned intelligently, by people who understand cruising. Creature comforts like long, comfortable beds, big bathrooms with separate showers, and well equipped, ergonomically planned galleys, combine to make living on board a real pleasure. Fairline uses genuine wood veneers throughout their interiors and bathing platforms on all boats are teak-laid, as are the cockpit floors on Flybridge boats and larger Targas. Solid Avonite or Swanstone tops are fitted on work surfaces and vanity units. Fairline offers a choice of light honey-tinted Maple or rich American Cherry. Larger boats feature even more exquisite combinations: American Cherry, Eucalyptus and Burr Elm; or Maple, Bird's Eye Maple and Madrona Burr. The deeply lacquered, protective finishes complement exclusive ranges of overhead and bulkhead finishes and custom-made soft furnishings, the latter available in an extensive choice of designer fabrics. Fairline's materials and construction methods are rigorously tested for durability, colour-fastness, fire resistance and smoke suppression by the Furniture Industry Research Association (FIRA). Fairline selects the finest marine engines available and design and engineer systems around the selected engines, to enable them to run at maximum efficiency. Aerodynamically-designed air intakes and ventilation systems ensure a continuous supply of cool air. Nickel-aluminium-bronze rudders and sterngear (rather than cheaper manganese-bronze) give strength and long life. Specially designed bonding systems minimize the risk of galvanic corrosion on underwater fittings. Large battery capacities with regulated support systems and oversize starter cables provide real reliability in the long term. From the sports performance of the 4.3 Gi-DP petrol engine to the remarkable power of the KAD44(EDC)-DP six-cylinder compressor-fed turbo aftercooled diesel, the Volvo Penta range promises the finest levels of performance for Fairline owners. Volvo Penta's Duoprop technology was far ahead when it was developed almost fifteen years ago, and still ahead now. The dual contra-rotating propellers grip the water like no other drive, maximizing propulsion efficiency and totally removing the risks of cavitation. A Duoprop drive will reduce the time it takes to get on the plane by some 30-percent over a conventional single propeller drive system. Volvo Penta diesels are quiet, with minimum detectable vibration, exceptionally clean and highly fuel efficient. They are more compact too, so routine service points are easier to check over and the boat's designer can give more space over to accommodation. It is the introduction of electronic control management systems that is now making the greatest impact on development. The TAMD122 EDC and it's sister, the TAMD73 EDC both feature Electronic Diesel Control. This electronic module monitors and controls all the key elements of the engine's operating system - like temperature and fuel supply. It automatically and continuously maximizes engine efficiency. EDC also provides for far easier engine diagnostic monitoring. An operating fault can normally be detected well before it affects the reliability of the engine, and a special plug-in module simplifies service routines, reducing time and saving money. Because EDC is used to operate the engine electrically rather than mechanically, it delivers exceptionally precise control. This feature that can be a real help in close-quarters manoeuvring, such as in crowded harbours and marinas. The electric cabling between the engine and steering position removes any possibility of vibration traveling along their lengths. Cleaner engines result from improvements in combustion efficiency, and in turn combustion efficiency has a direct influence on improving fuel efficiency and overall performance. That is why Volvo Penta has pioneered the development of techniques such as low air rotation, charged piston oil cooling and multi-hole injection systems. Volvo Penta's confidence in its engines is expressed in the protection provided by a truly international warranty. For diesel engines in excess of 300-hp and used by the owner for recreational use, warranty is extended from twelve months to two years. With over 5,000 trained service and parts dealers located around the world, Volvo Penta provides worldwide support. In 1993 Fairline's high standards of design and construction were recognized by the Registro Italiano Navale (RINA) of Italy and in 1994, they achieved full ISO9001 and BS5750 accreditation, unusual among British builders. At the beginning of 1997, Fairline was the very first European builder to achieve CE recognition for its entire range.

My Third Blog "I bet you didn't know you feed on Cottonseed"
My Third Blog "I bet you didn't know you feed on Cottonseed" – Cottonseed oil, since when do we eat cotton? – this blog will explain how I learned my kids were allergic to cottonseed and when I asked the allergist, what it was, she indicated not to worry about it, it wasn't in foods. After doing a little research of my own I realized just how WRONG she was. What I learned will shock you!!
Both my children have food allergies, many food allergies! One of their food allergies is "Cottonseed!" When I asked the allergist what this was she indicated I wouldn't have to worry about it, it wasn't in foods. I was relieved! I came home and did a little research on the internet to learn more about it and I was astonished at I learned and realized just how much the allergist didn't know about it.
More than 80% of cotton grown is genetically modified. Genetically modified crops contain (Bt) Bacillus thuringiensis, which is a toxin in a soil bacterium that has been used as a pesticide spray for many years. Cotton crops are not regulated as a food crop since it is not considered a food (we wear it we don't eat it), therefore, more toxic chemicals and pesticides can be used to increase farmers yield. When cotton is reaped, the cotton and the cottonseed are separated. Many many moons ago the cottonseed was considered waste and had no value. Until one day when someone got the bright idea to extract the oil from the cottonseed. Cottonseed oil was born!
Cottonseed oil was found to extend the shelf life of food, decreasing spoilage! It was cheap to manufacturer and widely available. Food manufacturers found a way to extend the life of their product and make it cheaper – which increased profits! Why not, right? Wrong! Little did they realize cottonseed oil has been linked to various health concerns, including allergies, immune system impairment, bleeding and inflammation.
Cottonseed has a very similar protein structure as a peanut! Oddly enough my kids are allergic to peanuts as well, so that all made sense! The FDA currently does not require allergy labeling for Cottonseed oil used in foods, which can be a serious health concern to many. Including my kids! As I have to read every word on the label to ensure it doesn't contain this oil.
Here is a list of products that I have found contain cottonseed oil:
Peanut butter (combined with cottonseed oil is a double whammy for kids with Peanut allergies), Boxed Cereals, Breakfast pastries, Snack cakes, Crackers, Chips, Cookies, Packaged Breads, Salad, Oils, Mayonnaise, Dressings, Marinades, Margarine, Frozen French fries, Other fake fats like shortening and artificial butter products, Many other processed foods,
Cottonseed oil contains over 50% Omega-6 fatty acids; could this be a cause of the United States obesity problem? If you wonder why you are seeing more and more organic and non-GMO foods hitting the shelf – because we are getting smart and asking questions and demanding better foods. We wear cotton – we don't eat it! Look out America, if you are counting on your government to protect you from FOOD poison, you will be counting a while! It's time we take our health into our own hands! Read the label before you buy any food product – you may now think twice before purchasing food with Cottonseed oil in it! If you need more information to convince you, google it!

We had our classroom holiday party yesterday and I made a very simple snack.
Reading Confetti, but I simplified it by just using whipped cream. (Although the cheesecake version sounds very delicious!) I started by washing my strawberries and cutting them so they had a flat bottom. I also dried them with a paper towel.
And on a separate note:
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...
My little Duma sure loves to climb!

Street Law, Inc. and The Supreme Court Historical Society present
Street Law /
The case was decided six to three. Justice Clark delivered the opinion of the Court.
Since the Fourth Amendment's right of privacy has been declared enforceable against the States through the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth, it is enforceable against them by the same sanction of exclusion as is used against the Federal Government. Were it otherwise . . . the freedom from state invasions of privacy would be so ephemeral and so neatly severed from its conceptual nexus with the freedom from all brutish means of coercing evidence as not to merit this Court's high regard as a freedom "implicit in the concept of ordered liberty." . . . in extending the substantive protections of due process to all constitutionally unreasonable searches—state or federal—it was logically and constitutionally necessary that the exclusion doctrine—an essential part of the right to privacy-be also insisted upon as an essential ingredient of the right. . . .
. . . our holding that the exclusionary rule is an essential part of both the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments is not only the logical dictate of prior cases, but it also makes very good sense. There is no war between the Constitution and common sense.
Federal-state cooperation in the solution of crime under constitutional standards will be promoted, if only by recognition of their now mutual obligation to respect the same fundamental criteria in their approaches.
There are those who say, as did Justice (then Judge) Cardozo, that under our constitutional exclusionary doctrine "[t]he criminal is to go free because the constable has blundered." . . . In some cases this will undoubtedly be the result. But, as was said in Elkins, "there is another consideration-the imperative of judicial integrity." . . . The criminal goes free, if he must, but it is the law that sets him free. Nothing can destroy a government more quickly than its failure to observe its own laws, or worse, its disregard of the charter of its own existence.
. . . Our decision, founded on reason and truth, gives to the individual no more than that which the Constitution guarantees him, to the police officer no less than that to which honest law enforcement is entitled, and, to the courts, that judicial integrity so necessary in the true administration of justice.
In the majority opinion, the justices refer to the "exclusionary rule." Under this rule, what has to be excluded from trial? Why?
The majority identifies several reasons why evidence gained in an illegal search cannot legally be used against a defendant during trial. Why do they say that such a rule is constitutionally necessary?
The majority insists that to allow illegally seized evidence during trial would destroy the government. Explain.
What foundation of U.S. government is the Court referring to when it states, "Nothing can destroy a government more quickly than its . . . disregard of the character of it own existence"?
Do you agree with the Court's statement "there is no war between the Constitution and common sense"? Explain.

How can the 'Moeller book' help to play my drum kit better
Tommy William Hanson
Looking back at SANFORD A. MOELLER from the 21st Century
* ...Contemporary jazz & rock drummers should not pass up making use of the techniques described in the writings of Sanford A. Moeller (a.k.a. the 'Moeller Technique' or the 'Moeller Method').
[ This article was posted in 2004, when 'drum forums' were not covering Moeller's book with much accuracy or understanding ]
The book is best known for Moeller's views on grip, the so-called 'Moeller Grip', and the 'Up Stroke Technique'. The above names are just two concepts associated with Moeller.
Visitors From All Countries
But how can the 'Moeller book' help anyone to improve on how they perform on a drum kit? This article aspires to review some of the material in Sanford A. Moeller's writings. The article is somewhat lengthy, and constantly makes references to the information found in Moeller's book. Moeller expressed his personal philosophies, in his work, as well as giving out the 'traditional' method of how to play a drum (the snare drum) in an accomplished manner. Video Examples for this article - below Video examples from all articles...HERE
Of course, we all realize that there were not many drum kits around during the early years of the twentieth century! Therefore playing a drum 'Moeller style', was the only way to do it, at that point in time. The knowledge and techniques, described by Moeller, back in 1925, make up what he calls the 'standard' and 'authentic' drum method that was developed over many centuries. No wonder he called it authentic.
One may wish to read this article in more than one sitting. Periodically, there will be material about how Moeller can help the drum set player. In addition to reviewing some of the techniques that Moeller talks about, the article will include several Moeller comments, that are taken from the book. These comments can be found, paraphrased here and there, so as to reveal some of Moeller's philosophies about drumming, as well.
What aspects of Moeller should I use, or learn to do, in order to improve on how I play my drum kit ? Ask these basic questions as you continue along reading.
Consider these points ...
At the outset, it should be noted that the book's snare drum exercises and practice routines are separate issues from the suggested grips covered on pages 4 and 5 (in Moeller's book).
Or to express it another way ... the book's initial pictures of Moeller, showing how to grip a drumstick, are only one part of the (open style) approach that Moeller describes.
Few realize that Moeller talks about '2-grips' that a drummer should learn. It is not correct to say that the Moeller book wants drummers to change their grip. His book lets you know that he is definitely NOT saying ... "there is only 1-grip ... the little finger grip!" (see page 11, in his writings).
The real answer one should pick up from his lessons, is to learn both!! And what is extremely interesting, is the fact that Sanford Moeller was a rudimental drumming champion, who recognized the following:
Learning 2-grips is a very desirable approach (strategy) to take ... one grip for rudiments (as Moeller did) or the same grip for the heavy players whom Chapin talks to ... and the other grip style for drum set (as Gene Krupa did). Recall that Jim Chapin, for instance, talks about learning the"second" grip (the 'back of the hand' grip) all the time.
What does the so-called 'Moeller system of drumming' represents to us? Answer: It is a broad, flexible approach to snare drumming, that can be used as a foundation for further specialization ... (drum kit, orchestral snare drumming, pipe band drumming, etc.)
Assume this as a given ... the first part of learning the so-called 'Moeller method', is to embrace a commitment to work out regularly, using a 'rudimental schedule' of some kind. Moeller was definitely a rudimental enthusiast! Pupils of Moeller had to become used to practicing drum rudiments on a regular basis, that's for sure!
In the first video (just above), note that being strong on handling rudiments can add to one's solo experiences. Many musicians (non-drummers) are able to sit behind someone's drum kit and 'keep a beat'. It is another story, however, if they are requested to play a complex solo on one drum or around several drums. They simply would not have the vocabulary to do so.
Sanford Moeller thoroughly studied the 'Camp Duty' literature (US Army), because he loved how vintage drum beatings could show off the advanced expertise of a drummer.
Moeller believed, that if anyone could expertly play the Camp Duty, they should be considered accomplished at the instrument. Examples of those drum beatings, are: Three Camps, The Quick Scotch, Dinner Call, Downfall of Paris - to name a few.
From history, we know that in the 1920s, Moeller was very vocal and critical of what he saw. Rudimental shortcuts and unbalanced stickings were turning out weaker (less accomplished) drummers, in his view ... read Ken Mazur's publications (they're great for learning more details about rudiments in general, and about rudimental drummers who were active players in both the near as well as the distant past.
Finally, and to Moeller's dislike (at the time when his book was published) ... drummers were being taught to ignore making use of the authentic traditional grips (shown in his book). Moeller's argument was that drummers should be trained by starting with the basics ... to include the 'rudimental grip' or 'little finger grip' (one of two grips that Moeller proposed that a drummer should learn). Drummers were also encouraged to study only the snare drum for a time before beginning to learn drum kit patterns and exercises.
What he also saw, was that drummers were opting to play 'closed style' (thumb fulcrum) for everything they did. This included most drummers in parade marching units ... and 'rudimental soloists' as well.
Moeller was not part of the original 'twenty-six rudiments club' (NARD - which W.F. Ludwig helped to found). But he definitely championed learning rudiments. His book preceded N.A.R.D.'s foundation by several years! To Moeller, studying rudiments was the very basis of drumming. They were necessary to know, in order for a drummer to be considered proficient in the art of playing a drum.
That historic group (just mentioned above) was made up of a number of well established drummers who possessed excellent technical skills. With the help of William F. Ludwig (W.F.L.) (Leedy and Ludwig) (etc.), the group encouraged young players to improve themselves by following a practice method that included mastering a list of twenty-six rudiments. Learning the 'thirteen essential drum rudiments' was the first step.
The group obviously felt that the 'rudimental grip' was too much trouble to deal with, and was fading and becoming old fashioned within the teacher-student community (and it was)!
But when the 'heavy rock players' started to evolve in the late 1960s & early 70s, the back of the hand grip became important, again (and Moeller's book, and his point of view, began to be revisited).
The names of the elite group that founded N.A.R.D. (National Association of Rudimental Drummers) are listed just below:
Thompson, George A. Robertson, Bill Flowers, Bill Keifer, Bill Hammond, Joe
George Lawrence Stone, Roy Knapp, William F. Ludwig, Heinie Gerlach, J. Burns Moore, Billy Miller, Ed Straight
Ever since the days of John Philip Sousa, nearly all young American drummers have been instructed by their band director (conductor) to study the "scales of drumming" (drum rudiments).
Today, with the advent of PAS (Percussive Arts Society) and DCI (Drum Corps International), all parts of the US are populated with drummers who have excellent technical skills. Also, now-a-days, there exists many more variations and combinations of drum rudiments ... different permutations of those basic, age-old, elemental strokes and studies.
Sanford "Gus" Moeller was first and foremost a rudimental drummer, and was definitely a 20th century bridge to the 'ancients'. Be that as it may, it is common knowledge that Moeller was chiefly responsible for helping to produce the great early jazz drummers, such as the famous "Sing, Sing, Sing" soloist, Gene Krupa. This is proof that much of the 'Moeller book' can be easily transferred to non-rudimental venues (to include the various music styles and the different kinds of stick grips used by well-known players of the drum set).
The Moeller Book·· "The Art of Snare Drumming," was published in 1925 and reprinted in June 1950 by Leedy and Ludwig ... (followed by - 1956 Copyright assigned to Ludwig Drum Co.), (followed by - 1982 Copyright assigned to Ludwig Music Publishing Co).
There was a time when this self-teaching method book was ONE of the 'necessary THREE' (books), that serious players would examine. Half a century ago, techniques from Sanford A. Moeller (The Moeller Book ), George Lawrence Stone (Stick Control ) and Jim Chapin ... (Chapin's independence book for Jazz and Be-Bop Drumming) ... were the accepted building blocks that helped to create the trained, advanced jazz drummers & rudimental drummers of the day.
This article doesn't mean to omit mentioning the early rock genre, but accomplished rock drummers and jazz/rock drummers where not around in the 1950s & early 1960s. It was during that period, when Moeller's influence fell out of favor (somewhat).
The early rock drummers did not care about what other drummers (jazz drummers) were able to do (strong on rudiments, excellent co-ordination skills, etc.). They were playing new music, and most 'serious' music fans thought that rock & roll (and relatively simple playing requirements to play early rock) wouldn't last!
To view it another way, from a performance point of view ... there were numerous big band style drum solos (remember Gene Krupa), that one can point to in the first half of the 20th century. In the second half, the smaller jazz groups and progressive 'bop' players of the 1950s and 60s produced countless numbers of drum set solos to appreciate. Examples of these 'small jazz combo' solos were created by: Max Roach, 'Philly' Joe Jones, et al.
But as for early 'Rock' drum solos ... those drummers did not (could not) put in years of effort to develop technique (the Moeller type skills), because the music was all very new. The 'new rock drummer' was involved in a revolution .... performing and supporting Rock & Roll music. Small combos began to abandon the swing beat, and took a chance on, Rock & Roll ... a new genre. It also meant ... get a new drummer (usually a younger drummer)!
So was there, after all, an early rock drum solo? Yes, and it was the drum solo, called, Wipe Out. It became THE popular/commercial drum set solo during that time ... and it was especially suited for 'commercial ears'. Note ... it was the early '60s when the Surfaris (pronounced surf -R -ease) posted their two major hits.
[comment] Wipe Out, required just a couple of tom-toms and a snare. The solo could be copied by playing (at a moderate speed) a couple of combinations from the paradiddle family.
I remember practicing the 'Three Camps' with paradiddles instead of rolls, as a teenager. The 'feeling' of the approach of substituting paradiddles for 'open rolls', it seemed to me, was quite similar to the Surfaris hit, Wipe Out.
Wipe Out, has also been performed using the single stroke roll with accents. As a matter of fact, there are two exercises in Ted Reed's Syncopation Book, that (when put together) produce the 'Wipe Out beat', or accent pattern!
Wipe Out even reached the 'country charts', and probably helped the 'country rock' genre (during the early stages of a new type of country music). The popularity of the Surfaris (Ron Wilson) drum solo lasted for many years until drummers, such as John Bonham, and all the accomplished rock drummers of the late 1960s, started the "post (Rock & Roll) rock" era. Recall Bonham's Moby Dick ... most would agree that it is a collection of solo ideas and drum patterns considerably more complex than Wipe Out.
Since then, more and more players brought 'rock' drumming to new heights (i.e., the Moeller standard), and it spilled over into a new Jazz/Rock genre (Billy Cobham, for instance).
Having Jazz 'go electric', with 'rock influenced' drummers, meant the development of an entirely new kind of player ... the Electronic Jazz Musician a.k.a., Jazz/Rock musician. To cite Cobham, once again ... he was on the leading edge of jazz/fusion drumming. He had a drum & bugle corps background, played matched grip, and was considered one of the top 'fusion drummers' of the early 1970s.
Today, the best drummers involved in jazz and jazz/rock (fusion) are strong on technique (rudiments)
Also, most of them prefer to use the popular matched grip!
Are rudiments that important? The answer is that, most well-known drummers definitely talk about rudiments (a 'Moeller Method' prerequisite, remember). I recall Elvin Jones (when he played with John Coltrane) telling a clinic, that age old piece of information ... if a drummer practices the double stroke roll (Da-Da Ma-Ma Roll) with an accent on the second note, it produces an improved sound and changes the very way a drum can be played.
In other words, learning to cultivate the 'weak' taps, changes one's style (somewhat), regarding the different ways a drum can be stuck. The exercise also helps to produce the very best tone and enhances technique, such as speed! Moreover, the 'accent on the second note exercise' forces the second note (of the double) to be played as an accented up stroke .
Playing the up stroke with an accent is a very useful technique to develop. The 'long roll AVI movie' (just above), shows the second note being played with an accent. The second note is slightly louder than the first note of the double stroke roll during the slower stages of 'breaking down' the long roll rudiment (above AVI movie). The accent is rendered while the hand rises, and therefore one can view it as an accented up stroke.
Note: Active rudimental soloists are the absolute best at performing the long roll quite cleanly and evenly. They must do so (i.e., 'keep in shape') if they wish to score well in rudimental solo competitions. When preparing for contests, they must practice the long roll daily, in order to keep their competitive edge. Drummers should appreciate their dedication to the basics (rudiments). These are the building blocks that help to make a drummer stand out
Note: This article will always try to use Moeller's terms and definitions (from his book). To invent a new term or phrase to describe what Moeller is talking about, will many times confuse drummers more than help them. 'The fewer definitions to learn, makes for an easier lesson ... (to learn)!
By now, it should be more or less obvious, to the reader, that Moeller did not teach Gene Krupa how to play a set of drums ... but rather, he gave Krupa CONFIDENCE regarding his rudimental skills. As a result of practicing drum rudiments, he gave Gene Krupa a well developed snare drum technique. And with that, he helped to give Krupa his jazz drumming career!
During the 1920s and 30s, individuals, such as Sanford Moeller, were the ones who had the 'knowledge'. There were other drummers out there, certainly, but most did not really know the concept ... 'practice your rudiments'! They obviously performed that way, too!
Little wonder that Gene Krupa stood out ... because Krupa could really play a snare drum (thanks to 'Gus'!) ... This was the point in time (in the U.S.) when the United States military drummers, and the trained percussion specialists (who were following the European classical tradition), ceased to 'own' (exclusively) the advance technical skills (drum rudiments) needed for accomplished drumming!
In the popular world of the 1920s, dance band drummers were starting to learn difficult sticking techniques, and were playing their drum kits with awesome speed. Needless to say, these techniques were introduced to them by Moeller (or a 'Moeller-type' teacher).
As we all know, Krupa was neither a 'military drummer' nor a classical percussionist! His niche was in the popular world. He specialized in big band drumming and after several years developed his own band to feature himself. Louis (Louie) Bellson and Benard (Buddy) Rich did the same thing many years later.
It should be remembered, though, that Krupa's popularity resulted from his applying ancient skills (the rudiments and other techniques from Moeller's lessons) to the drum set. He is usually thought of as being the first, successful, 'commercial' drummer to do so. Seeing a dance band drummer displaying excellent technique, was not the norm!
All of that changed, however (thanks to Moeller and others), when drummers like Krupa came on the scene. Probably, for the first time, symphony percussionists began to learn the names of accomplished drum set drummers, whom they respected, because they could handle the rudiments and dynamics as well as they themselves could!!
MOELLER'S BOOK (personal view)
This author experienced the 'Moeller book' for the first time in 1956. My second teacher, who had won rudimental contests*, merely said, "Here's your next assignment, you should try to read through this book during the summer."
It was many years later, however, when I began to re-visit 'the Moeller approach'. I had recently attended a Joe Morello clinic (circa mid 1960s). And just by reading through Moeller's book, again (a decade after I had purchased it), I noticed that the information started to influence my practice, and therefore my performance skills.
I found that the ideas I did play (my same old drumming stuff) ... came out faster, stronger, and had a more genuine 'percussive' sound! After all, Moeller's book clearly states that it was set up to be a self-instructor teaching manual.
THE UP STROKE - Moeller's Definition
One does not have to use a certain stick grip in order to play an up stroke! The up stroke concept, a concept that does not depend on any particular grip, has more to do with eurhythmics (a term that can be found on page 69 in Moeller's book).
The idea refers to visualizing the body's movement as 'part of ', (or the beginning of) ... striking a drum in the first place! The up stroke technique is one of the so-called secrets from the 'ancients'. Referring to drummers as being students of eurhythmics, of course, is 'very Moeller'. Moeller constantly pointed out the following:
Think body movements, first, and the sticks will follow ...
Jim Campbell (University of Kentucky), has given a great Moeller-like explanation as to what Moeller's book and teaching approach is more or less about ...
(In Moeller's book) Moeller talks about the chief use for utilizing the up stroke as follows ... the up stroke can be used for the second note of a paradiddle and similar sticking situations. Mastering the up stroke allows a drummer to render a paradiddle (or consecutive flams, for that matter) much faster than those drummers who were never taught the technique. More details about the up stroke are on a later page.
The following AVI demonstrates the right stick playing continuous one-handed taps. Some may have seen this clip before (on the page that links to this one). Look for the 'up stroke' in the clip. The 'pumping' motion (the down-up movement), is the energy behind it all. Note, that when the hand is in its highest position, it is 'whipped' back toward the drum, thus starting each cycle over again.
Specifically, the technique involved is: an up stroke, followed by a down stroke (which is rendered with a sort of snapping movement from the very end of the up stroke position). This combination (the two techniques) has come to be known as the 'Moeller stroke' (although he did not invent anything new!).
Physically speaking, the 'Moeller stroke' is the only way to maintain propelling a drumstick without lifting it! The hand is what is moving up and down, while the stick continues to tap the drum. The technique is very old.
Watch Video in 'Repeat Mode' ... (or loop)
In the clip (above), note that the right stick is NOT held with the little finger, a.k.a. the 'Moeller grip'. As stated earlier, up strokes do not depend on any particular style of grip.
To repeat, if one studies the way the groups of 4's and 3's are organized in the AVI (above), it can be seen that a 'snapping' or 'whip' motion begins each cycle. Another clip (later) will show the left hand.
Moeller's book can only take one so far...
It's definitely more accurate to say, that it was Moeller's students, who popularized the drum kit, and the various drum set tricks (technique attention-getters) that most pro drummers usually learn.
For these 'drum set techniques', we must look to the generation of Moeller's students ... drummers who were in the same age group with Jim Chapin. Many were only interested to play a drum set. They were only interested to take on Moeller's lessons in order to master a set of drums ... (Gene Krupa followers, as it were).
Buddy Rich also signed on to the heavy technical stuff, too! His speed and complicated stickings were learned from somewhere! His genius, as we know (now), was that he learned 'just by watching'. Coming from a show-biz family put him in this position to experience entertainment from within. The accomplished, vaudeville drummers were his first experiences relative to drumming.
It is said that he never really gave credit to any other drummer for his abilities! However, Buddy has gone record for admiring Gene Krupa, Jo Jones, Chick Webb, Ray McKinley, Ray Bauduc, and Sid Catlett...
Note the following:
The above drummers are examples of drummers who were influenced by the Moeller standards that were set down in the 1920s. The above techniques are areas that the majority of drummers want to explore and prefer to learn!
Obviously, few are ever interested in a pure rudimental approach to drumming. 'Perfectionist-style drumming' (a term coined by Ken Mazur), is Moeller's real legacy (in this author's opinion). Moeller had an almost spiritual devotion to the 'ancients' rudimental style of drumming. He loved performing on an excellent sounding drum. He obviously took pleasure in beating out any one of the classic drum beatings from out of past (Downfall Of Paris), for example.
In his later years, Moeller was still so principled, that he would not sell you a drum that he had made if you could not play it on a level that he deemed acceptable!
Regarding Moeller's most famous pupil since Gene Krupa, Jim Chapin ...
Chapin created a new direction, for teaching jazz coordination and jazz drumming exercises for the 'swing beat' (using the jazz ride cymbal rhythm against a variety of syncopated rhythms). With a little thought, it can be seen that Morello's technique probably was refined by Chapin's book.
Note that in Chapin's book, Chapin shows one hand against the other and shows them separately. This influence probably came from the way he learned from his teacher, Moeller. Hopefully you can see all the connections?
To say again, realize, that these areas (drum kit) are not 'Moeller areas'. These skills belong to the generation of Moeller's students (many of whom were only interested in drum set drumming, i.e., not marching in parades).
The 'Moeller system' (The Moeller Book) is FOUNDATION ...
Moeller can only give a drummer a quality 'set of hands' (just like Krupa, Chapin, etc). If Moeller is new to you, you may not know that learning skills for playing a drum kit are not covered in Moeller's book! Moeller's expertise was ... 'one player - one drum'. (Another area, not talked about in Moeller's writings, involve the various 'finger control' methods, and so on).
'Moeller techniques' would be an excellent foundation for anyone to pursue, as these techniques have always been the very basis of drumming. Recall learning one's 'letters'. For a few weeks, or longer, we learn, as children, to copy the lettering from a blackboard. After a while, we make our 'own version' of the letter "B", and not the teacher's, and so on. Start with a good foundation if you want good results (i.e., the Moeller basics).
Whether or not a drummer personally studied with Moeller, his influence has no doubt reached that drummer all the same! Buddy Rich comes to mind, for instance (as mentioned before). He had an awesome command of the snare drum and the up stroke technique. His one handed stick taps are well known. He was famous for rendering the up stroke -down stroke combination (the so called 'Moeller stroke'), with a push-pull maneuver using mostly fingers.
After one gets to know Moeller better, it becomes obvious, that ... he would clearly NOT recommend a certain grip to play a parade drum (field drum) ... and then recommend using the very same approach, without any modifications, to play a '1930s - 1940s set of drums'. These are two different tasks! They require two different approaches, and Moeller's book accommodates this.
Here is a noteworthy observation. In the 1960s and 70s, symphony percussionists, almost overnight, began to produce the 'orchestra roll' with a 'matched grip'. Many DCI style drum & bugle corps also adopted the flat drum, matched grip approach, as well. Since the 1960s rock revolution, the matched grip (thumb fulcrum) was destined to be and has become the preferred stick grip for most drummers (point of fact).
Recall, however, that the 'popular matched grip' has only been popular since the 1960s. Prior to that, among drummers, it was rarely talked about. To say again, many university percussion graduates, now-a-days, never opt to learn anything but the matched grip. And with that, an entirely unique school of snare drumming becomes un-available to them and unavailable to any students they may instruct!
The above, of course, is quite understandable, because the matched grip is common to the timpani and mallet percussion instruments. Learning one grip for all of the percussion instruments (matched ), is now the accepted norm.
Therefore, a 'Moeller-like' drummer (traditional approach) became 'old fashioned' over the last few decades. No one tilted the drum anymore ... why play the 'old way'?
My respects to all those who learned traditional, in spite of what nearly everyone does, today. If one prefers to play on a level drum, however, I personally would not recommend the traditional approach, and would suggest using matched (ergonomically speaking, the more logical choice). When Krupa played on a tom-tom, he used a matched grip if the drum was oriented in a more or less flat orientation.
Just remember to use the grip that fits the situation ... and then, that would be the best grip to use
And as for my experiences ... I have always enjoyed playing rudiments with the 'traditional' (open style ) grip or little finger grip.
But, I have also enjoyed playing in a jazz trio (with George Muribus and Lenny Lasher), using the 'traditional' (closed style) grip, at the Purple Onion in San Francisco.
And, I also very much enjoyed playing with Bo Diddley, using the popular 'matched' grip (one weekend at Bill Graham's Fillmore West in October, 1970).
NOTE: Grip the stick according to the situation at hand! I've just mentioned three different approaches (situations) above
One must remember, however, that Moeller's specialty was, one player - one drum. Drums that he played on were always set up at an angle, and not situated in a more or less flat or level orientation. From the very beginning of the instrument (now called the drum kit), drum set drummers usually tilted their snare, until influence from the 'rock genre' began to take effect in the late 1960s.
Another situation that a drummer could cite (for finding a use for the 'little finger grip') is: down stroking through a heavy cymbal crash, for instance! For Moeller aficionados, this is an exhilarating feeling ... (assuming that one uses the proper grip) ... drop the fulcrum back and 'whip it' ... right 'through' the cymbal.
Remember to practice this technique, with the stick tip pointing down before the snapping motion. Don't always take a back swing ... and then 'think' whip. Learn to 'whip it' from the end of an up stroke, where the stick tip is down (the hand's position is above the stick tip before the whipping movement is rendered).
As an exercise ... take your drumstick and raise your arm to your shoulder while keeping the stick tip pointing relative downward (it must be below the hand). Then, merely drop (whip) your hand/ wrist/ arm quickly downward, and the stick has no choice but to rapidly move up and down. The player does not have to think ... 'lift the stick'.
Thinking lift, and then actually lifting the tip of the stick above the hand, reduces speed. In other words, lifting the tip of the stick above the hand is not necessary in order to perform a 'whipping' down stroke. The stick tip actually goes up (and down) automatically, as it follows the downward, snapping movement. These 'so called Moeller secrets', came from the civil war drummers (through Moeller)!
For many years, Jim Chapin has been recommending to drummers that they can definitely learn from Moeller's lessons. Chapin is not like the many percussion experts, who casually claim that they 'understand' Moeller as well as anyone (and more often than not, do not).
Jim Chapin studied with Moeller. He was a Moeller pupil for a time. For decades, he has advocated that one should pay attention to the 'time honored' information that he learned (in Moeller's book). For me, therefore, he has always been the best model and the best representative to demonstrate the ideas found in Sanford Moeller's writings. The main difference between Chapin and others, is that he knows where it all came from!!

Reviews for Holiday Rental Villa #50 in Davenport, United States of America
Best Thanksgiving Ever!
If you need a place where family can meet up for Thanksgiving... then this Calabay Parc Villa was perfect! We rented four villas in total and we got this one :) The villa is kitted out to a really high spec. There's lots of room, enough for two families when we stayed. The living area is great really comfortable and a great area to hang out in. The bedrooms are amazing, much more spacious than we anticipated, and with 2 babies in the house we were pleasantly surprised how soundproof most of the rooms were! The pool is great really good size and plenty of pool-side space to sit and lounge. There's also great views of the lake - which was a real bonus. Overall, the house was really clean and orderly (when we arrived!), well-decorated, and had plenty of kitchenware and cookware (It was like cooking Thanksgiving dinner at home - plenty of pots and pans). The property manager was really pleasant and answered all our questions immediately. We certainly recommend this for family get-togethers any time of year! Very relaxing and homely place. Would recommend. Thanks!!

Our stay at Villa 344- Calabay Parc
We had a wonderful stay at Villa 344 in Calabay Parc! The house is big and roomy and beautifully furnished!! The best part of the whole property is the wonderful, fenced-in pool right out the back door!

Nice place for family reunion
The layout of the house was wonderful with adequate bedrooms and baths for all 11 of us. The whole family enjoyed the pool, grandchildren especially. Location was good with nice view of Tower Lake. The game room was almost unusable as it was so hot in there. The grandchildren braved it once in a while but not for long. I was surprised that very little toilet paper and soap was furnished and no dishwasher soap or laundry soap. I have rented houses for 8 summers in different parts of the United States and these items were always furnished. I will probably never assume again that these things will be furnished.

Fabulous Family Vacation
We recently surprised our children and grandchildren with a Florida vacation which included visits to Disney World , Universal Studios, and the Kennedy Space Center. Little did we know the real winner during this vacation would be the beautiful home we rented on Tower Lake. Our expectations were high based on VRBO's pictures and descriptions, but were exceeded by our experience there. The house was clean and beautifully decorated. It very comfortably held--and provided good "space" for--six adults and five children (10 and under), including one 10-month old. The house was well-stocked with sufficient dinnerware, silverware, cookware, and glasses to keep us from having to constantly wash dishes to keep up with the needs of 11 people. The pool area was a real living space for us...it was spacious, clean, had lots of lounge chairs and tables and was the perfect place to "come home to" after hours in the various parks. The kids LOVED nighttime swimming, made possible by the lighted pool, and the tables around the pool provided a perfect space to play games or build Legos. A few pool toys and a fishing pole--perfect for fishing on Tower Lake--only added to the fun for the kids. The converted garage/game room also held much more than we would have expected from a vacation home--pool table, foosball, air hockey and games. It really couldn't have been more perfect. Any problems??? During our stay, the wash machine stopped working, but within 24 hours a new one was delivered to the house. We've rented before, and I can honestly say, we've never had such prompt and efficient service--the property manager was wonderful!! My husband and I have traveled quite a bit and have rented other houses. We've never had such a wonderful experience. As we "reviewed" the vacation with our married daughters, they and their husbands shared our praise for this house. There are two master suites with en suite bathrooms, and the third large bedroom has a bathroom just outside, so it felt like a private bathroom. The children's jack-and-jill bedrooms/bath couldn't have been more convenient...down the hall from their parents, giving everyone the individual space needed. We would wholeheartedly recommend this property for a perfect Florida get-away for families or any group. The property is clean and beautiful, the surrounding area is safe, and it's close to grocery stores, shopping and only 25 minutes from Disney and other attractions. Who could want more?

Fantastic Holiday
What a fantastic holiday we had and what a difference staying in your villa made to it. Everything was as promised and more to the point where it was a struggle to drag ourselves out and go to the parks. We have passed the details onto a number of friends who are thinking of visiting the states in the next couple of years so hopefully something will come from that. Thanks again (and to Robin too)

Very nice villa!
This villa was very spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone who wanted to be in the South Orlando area but away from the bustle of the theme parks.

Lovely villa quiet location but close to attractions
A great villa with views over the Lake (and the gator!), set in a quiet gated community close to shops and restaurants and only 20 mins from Disney. Children's rooms are Frozen and Starwars themed, with plenty of bathrooms for the 5 bedrooms. The villa is well laid out and equipped with everything you would normally need. The pool and deck area face South and catch the sun and sunsets. A great villa in a superb position, close to attractions and all the facilities you will need.

Wonderful Villa
Working with Florida Villas was a smooth and seamless process. Their communication was outstanding and they made the whole process stress free. The house is a wonderful house and floor plan, with a great pool and screened in porch. The cleaning was very well done and we enjoyed our stay. Thank you for an enjoyable vacation.

Day 7 of decluttering moved a queen bed sized pure wool underblanket.
The underblanket is heavy and took up quite a bit of space, but now it is in the back of the car. It will be either taken to the Dogs Refuge or put in one of the charity bins that accept items other than clothing.
We got a new underblanket when we changed mattresses as it kept the shape of the previous mattress. It was dry cleaned and put away, and I can't remember how it got to the blue room. But I'm sure we don't need a spare underblanket.

Welcome to Lydia's Bennet's story.
If you've read Pride & Prejudice, you know Lydia is the youngest of the five Bennet sisters. Like her siblings, she has little chance of making a good marriage. Still, Lydia is not your typical heroine. She doesn't cry over her hopeless future. She sets about to change it, without concern to propriety or decorum. Lydia falls to the charms of Wickham when she's sixteen and she's certain marriage to the handsome fellow is the beginning of her fabulous life. She soon discovers Wickham's many failings and realizes she'll have to secure a better future for them both.
At each stop, I'll share a new bit of detail from Pride & Prejudice that touches upon Lydia's story.
Today, we go to P&P to discover if Lydia is pretty or just flirtatious?
In Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, Lydia describes herself as the tallest of the sisters. Eliza calls Lydia a stout, well-grown girl of fifteen, with a fine complexion and good countenance early in the book. Later, her looks are downgraded to tolerable, her attractions are attributed solely to her youth and flirtatious ways.
Liza's thoughts:
I believe the downgrade in looks by Eliza is skewed her sister's unabashed enjoyment of soldiers. I translate stout to mean well endowed. In other words, Lydia is tall and busty with a happy outlook on life and a love for young men.
In all the movies, Lydia is shorter than her sisters, no doubt because it's odd for the youngest to be the tallest. However, Lydia regains her height in Untamed & Unabashed. In fact, she is very tall for a young woman and thus stands out. While perhaps not the prettiest woman in England, her skin is flawless, she pouts beautifully, and her seduction skills are par none. She can even get a rise out Darby, who wants nothing to do with her.
Elizabeth Bennet told her story in Pride and Prejudice. Now Lydia Bennet tells her side of her whirlwind marriage to Lieutenant Wickham. The youngest of five daughters with a pittance of a dowry and no hope for a good marriage, Lydia feared her life was doomed from the start. She learns how to set herself apart from her sisters and gain the attention of young men. She hones charm and flirtation to an art. Willing to take risks, she manages to acquire a substantial dowry and marries her beloved Wickham. Yet, her life remains on the brink until she gains the patronage of a wealthy Duke trapped in a loveless marriage.
"Lydia was Lydia still; untamed, unabashed, wild, noisy and fearless."
—quote by Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
A peel of laughter drew Wickham's attention to a circle of soldiers surrounding the youngest Bennet sister.
A smile came to his lips. The girl might just be his salvation. She was staying with Colonel Forster and his wife. If she would be willing to leave this dance and return to the Forster's house, she could provide him access to the colonel's library. Rumor had it that Forster kept the army's provisioning money somewhere in the room, and with any luck, it would be enough to pay the men off.
He frowned. No. That wouldn't work. Lydia couldn't keep a secret to save her soul. She'd tell the colonel's wife that he'd been in the library. He sighed. The colonel was no fool. He'd know exactly what happened, and Wickham would find himself spending the rest of his life in an army prison, which was only marginally better than what the two bruisers planned if he didn't pay up.
He studied the tall pretty blonde, batting her eyes at her cadre of admirers. How could he keep the twit from talking? He smiled as a plan formed in his head.
Yes. He could escape his current predicament and start anew with the money in the colonel's library. A moment of guilt flitted over him. Eliza would never forgive him for using and tossing her youngest sister aside.
His affection for Eliza had been foolhardy from the start. She had no dowry and no connections. All she possessed was a clever mind, genuine humor, and the finest brown eyes he'd ever seen.
He refocused on the blonde, blue-eyed Lydia. She was hands down the silliest girl he had ever met. She laughed at everything, and her eyes, while attractive, were nothing to Eliza's.
Upon comparing the theoretical displeasure of a woman he would never see again to his certain displeasure at either chipping rocks in an army prison, or having both his legs broken, the choice proved remarkably easy.

On twitter I found out that Specs Post which is an online glasses company who dispense the perfect glasses from the comfort of your own home how cool is that? If that isn't enough to convince you Specs Post do a service where you can get a selection of glasses of your choice sent to your home for you to try, that way you can decide on the perfect frames and there are plenty to choose from, I think it's great because it gives you plenty of time to ask for your family and friends opinion on them and they can help you decide! The best part about it all is the glasses are MUCH cheaper than you can get on the high street and you can get designer frames! I wear glasses for concentration and although I do have a pair, I love idea of having a choice so when offered the chance to try three pairs of my choice I went for a few different ones, I picked a pair similar to what I already have but a different colour, some gorgeous frames which are like nothing I've ever seen before and a pair of gorgeous sunnies! Thanks to Glyn T Jones Photography and I got some pictures taken of me wearing the frames and I'd love your help in deciding which of the frames to choose?
