Inspired by the visceral potential of the Wall Street occupation, the Indignados of Spain just sent us word that on September 17th they too will set up camp outside the Madrid Stock Exchange. The surprise announcement, that their #TOMALABOLSA will join your #OCCUPYWALLSTREET, may embolden other cities as well. A rumor suggests the financial district of Paris may be next … or will it be Toronto's Bay Street, Sydney's Martin Place, or some yet to be chosen site in London?

Download our 3 week Skin Journal here!
About once or twice a week, after splashing your face simply with water, use Stark's Green Tea Detox Mask. Just mix 1/2 a teaspoon with a few drops of water, tea, pure fruit juice or even yogurt or honey, and spread a thin even layer of the mask over your face and let dry. If you have dry skin, focus on your T-zone only. Let dry for about 10 minutes (less if you don't have the time...it can even be used as a scrub!), then jump in the shower!
The rest of the week, use a small amount of Grapefruit Cleanse + Hydrate Balm. Massage into your face, and rinse with water. Use a face cloth (or your towel when you get out) to gently wipe away excess oils and replenish your skin with the antioxidant-rich, nutritious ingredients found in the balm.
When toweling off, use a spritz or two of Stark's White Willow Bark Perfecting Tonic. While your skin is still damp, use a drop or two of Stark's Cypress Purity + Defense Oil. If the weather is really bad, or if your skin needs a little extra comfort and protection, use a small amount of Stark's Grapefruit Cleanse + Hydrate Balm.
Massage Stark's Grapefruit Cleanse + Hydrate Balm onto skin. Let the nutritious, cleansing oils penetrate for a minute or two, then use a warm, damp cloth to gently wipe away makeup and grime. Your skin will feel very, very clean but not at all tight. Go ahead and mix a little Green Tea Detox Mask in there if you'd like an extra deep cleanse (optional, of course) and even use a spritz of White Willow Bark Perfecting Tonic. After rinsing away the daily grime, apply a little more Cypress Purity + Defense Oil than you would use in the A.M. If your skin is particularly parched, use a dab of Grapefruit Cleanse + Hydrate Balm as well.
For an extra treat for your toes, apply Grapefruit Cleanse + Hydrate Balm to your feet (throw in a massage for good measure) and wear clean cotton socks to bed. Wake up with happy feet.

In the webinar "What Top Employers are Looking for in Today's Economy", on October 22nd Adam outlined how his research shows that today's MBA graduates are lacking vital practical experience and soft skills, and how Hult has designed a pioneering new MBA to address these failings.
Adam Carstens is Director of Research at Hult Labs, Hult International Business School's San Francisco-based research unit. In 2012, the team partnered with over 90 top employers to research the effectiveness of today's standard MBA curriculum. Their findings show that traditional business school curricula are not adequately preparing graduates for the realities of today's workplace.

Panel gives reasons
A spark for equality and justice was ignited at Monday night's meeting hosted by a group of concerned citizens at the Minden Civic Center to discuss dropping a push for unitary status.
"We are going to take the best of our school system that we have," said Frankie Mitchell, Webster Parish School Board District 9. "We have a restriction in the court order that the ratio should be 64/36 percent (white teacher to black teacher ratio) and that hasn't been met. We have to put out a very good effort to make anything work."

Urban Monroes-New Christmas Single
With the Holiday season quickly approaching, the release of a new bluegrass Christmas single is as timely as a sleigh full of Rolexes. Rather than "Ho-Ho-Ho-ing" into the holidays though, the Urban Monroes offer a song with a more personal message. That song, "Underneath the Stars," begins in the dry arid troubled lands of life and ends at the joy filled Nativity where the gift of all gifts arrived in the most humble surroundings and underneath the stars.
Written by the Urban Monroes' Fran Kent, "Underneath the Stars" was originally created for a Christmas CD put out by the Menards chain of stores. The Midwest based retailer's Yuletide offering included singles by several of Portland's best artists. The UM's track includes its own guest star with the band's long-time fiddle-friend Annie Staninec joining the guitar, banjo, and bass in a rapid flight across a desert landscape to a Christmas culmination. "Underneath the Stars" is available to DJ's for download at Airplay Direct at www.airplaydirect.com/urbanmonroes where they will find other UM treats with songs for the season like Mr. Grinch and others.
While the band was hard at work on "'Stars", Santa dropped in to make an early delivery as they topped the RMR Top 50 Bluegrass Chart in the number one spot for the second time in three months. It was one more exclamation point for an exciting month and the band looks forward to a new year with their new CD Appaloosa Daydream

Please help us to plant a million trees in the next 5 years!
Having planted a million trees, we've set an ambitious goal of a million more in five years, so please make a donation now to our Million More Trees appeal!
Dear Supporter,
Thanks to you and our other supporters, Trees for Life has now planted one million trees. We've created 4,000 hectares of new Caledonian Forest and worked at 45 different locations across our Project Area. With almost every tree planted by a volunteer, and funded by supporters like you, that's a fantastic achievement.
Amongst these emerging forests, a complex web of life is now renewing itself. Dense carpets of moss, heather and blaeberries are alive with insects. Forest birds and wildlife are beginning to make their homes in this expanded habitat, including some of our rarest species. Black grouse numbers are steadily increasing at Corrimony, and pine martens are regularly seen at Dundreggan.
West Affric is one of the earliest places where Trees for Life began work. Volunteer groups planted trees there in the 1990s, and when I visited those sites in June, I was deeply touched to see how this work has progressed, restoring life and diversity to the land.
Beyond the trees we've planted, however, the view could not be more different. An empty, bleak landscape stretches into the distance.
Seeing these treeless expanses is a powerful reminder that we can't stop now. That's why I'm asking you to make a donation today to help us restore the forests with a million more trees.
Will you help restore the Caledonian Forest with a million more trees?
Stretching from Loch Ness to Skye, our Project Area is breathtakingly beautiful. Amongst the landscape of mountains, lochs and glens, you can already see the impact of our first million trees. Young woodlands are beginning to replace the old and dying trees of the former forest. These trees, which you have helped to plant, will take decades to mature. Some will still be standing five hundred years from now.
At current rates of work, it would take 10 years to reach our next million trees. However, time is running out for the forest and its unique wildlife. With your renewed support, we want to set an ambitious target to double our efforts: one million more trees in five years is our new goal!
There are a million reasons why I am asking for your support now.
By sending a donation today, each tree that you fund will make a real difference to the restoration of the Caledonian Forest. Your contribution will help to:
- Plant trees and protect naturally regenerating seedlings.
- Create new forest networks to link existing woodlands.
- Engage more volunteers with our rewarding conservation work.
- Restore habitats for strawberry spider, wood ants, Scottish wildcats, red squirrels, rare sawflies, ospreys, capercaillies - and all of our forest dependent wildlife.
A million trees in five years is our goal, but like any journey, we need to start with small steps. Here are some examples of what we're planning in the next year:
- Follow up planting on West Affric, to add to the trees already growing there, and to bring species diversity to the areas that have been fenced for natural regeneration.
- Planting trees in a cleared part of the commercial plantation of non-native conifers on Dundreggan, to restore it to natural forest.
- Further work to protect regenerating aspens, and to plant new aspen seedlings at Scatwell, in the northeast of our Target Area.
Gordon Buchanan
Wildlife cameraman and BBC film maker Gordon Buchanan planting the Millionth Tree of our project at Dundreggan in May.
It costs just £5 to plant and protect each tree
To implement the three projects I've outlined above, we need to raise a total of £20,000. By sending a donation today, you can help us to take these first three steps towards a million more trees.
The planting of the millionth tree is a fantastic achievement. It's also a wonderful opportunity to launch the next phase of Trees for Life's work: together, we can plant a million more trees for the Caledonian Forest.
Donations can be made very simply using the link below and my sincere thanks for any gift that you can make.
Yours sincerely,
Alan Watson Featherstone
Executive Director
PS. If you send a donation for five or more trees, we'll send you a stunning Caledonian Forest print (below). Thanks a million for any contribution that you can make!

Boy Amputee a Wrestling Team Star
One boy, minus two arms and two legs, equals AMAZING.
It doesn't get much more inspiring than this. An 11-year-old boy, who lost both his arms and legs when just a baby, doesn't let his disability get in the way of, well, anything really.
Dayton Webber enjoys playing football, go-karting or ice skating, but his particular passion is wrestling. For four years, Dayton has been a key member of a Virginia-based wrestling team. The six grader shrugs of the notion that what he lacks should hinder him, "I just like to do sports ... I feel like I can do anything if I just put my mind to it." Dayton told the Washington Post.
It's safe to say Weber has exceeded his parents expectations -- he wasn't even supposed to live. When doctors discovered streptococcus bacteria in his bloodstream, the then 11-month-old had to have all his limbs amputated to stop the infection from spreading. Right before the operation, Webber was baptized and given his last rites. Dayton's mother Natalie believes his fighting spirit is what keeps her son always able to meet new challenges. "For a kid to come so close to dying," says Natalie, "I think he has it in him -- that drive to survive."

Ramsar remarks to the CBD's SBSTTA-13, Rome, 20 February 2008
CBD STSTTA13, Rome, 20 February 2008
Agenda item 4.2 inland waters
Opening remarks by the Secretariat of the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands
Nick Davidson, Deputy Secretary General
Madam Chair,
Thank you for this opportunity to make few brief comments on progress in the continuing collaborative work between our Conventions, and on aspects of the document (UNEP/CBD/SBSTTA/13/5) you have before you.
As you have noted, the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands has acted as the CBD's lead implementation partner on wetlands (both inland and coastal) since CBD COP3. Our Parties value and recognize this important relationship as leading in continuing to demonstrate how such collaborations can work effectively, and it must continue to be developed and implemented if we are to be efficient in our use of resources for maintaining the biodiversity and sustainable use of wetlands - ecosystems which the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) advised us all have been and continue to be deterioriating faster than any other system, thus jeopardizing the huge range of services they provide to people and biodiversity.
So our joint activity has never been more important or urgent, in the light of an increasingly rapidly changing world.
In that respect, the Ramsar Standing Committee has recognized the importance of the framework for implementation of this relationship provided by our Joint Work Plan, and it welcomed this fourth plan, for 2007-2010, at its 35th meeting in 2007. But as this plan recognizes, whilst our collaborations at global level are working and progressing well, there is still much to do to enhance collaborative implementation through our respective focal points at national level, and we must all encourage ways of achieving this.
As your paper reflects, the Ramsar Convention has been placing increasing emphasis over the past 10 years on issues of water, its quantity and quality, in relation to wetland ecosystems. This is in recognition of the fact that increasing water needs, for example for irrigated agriculture, are a major driver of change to wetland systems, and that this pressure is predicted to increase if we continue to manage (or mis-manage) our increasingly scarce and unpredictable water supply as we currently do.
Our Scientific and Technical Review Panel (STRP) has developed a considerable suite of guidance adopted by Ramsar Parties on different aspects of water management and wetlands, and this is available as a number of Handbooks in the Ramsar Wise Use Handbook series, the third edition of which was published in 2007, and available to all of you on CD-ROM and from the Ramsar Web site (http://www.ramsar.org/lib/lib_handbooks2006_e.htm).
The STRP is now preparing further water-related guidance for consideration by Ramsar COP10 in October this year, notably a further development of the "critical path" approach to river basin management and information on water quality and on environmental water requirements.
This guidance is relevant to CBD not just concerning implementation of the inland waters programme of work. Since water underpins (or perhaps better - under-flows) the maintenance of all ecosystems, this guidance can support implementation of all CBD's thematic programmes of work. For example, whilst water in wet lands is important, wetlands and water in dry and sub-humid lands are even more critical for maintaining such ecosystems and their services. Likewise the inter-relationship between water, wetlands and agriculture is crucial, given that almost all the water we use comes directly or indirectly from wetlands; and that 70% of available water is used by irrigated agriculture.
It is perhaps very surprising, therefore, that so little overt attention to water issues is given in your other ecosystem programmes of work. Water, and the wetland systems which process and provide this water, we feel needs to be considered as much more of a cross-cutting issue in all of these programmes.
The Ramsar STRP is now completing a substantial body of other additional guidance work, and technical reports, for consideration by Ramsar COP10 (28 October-4 November, Changwon, Republic of Korea), and of direct relevance to activities under the CBD/Ramsar Joint Work Plan.
This includes work on:
- Review of the utility of Ramsar guidances;
- Wetlands and climate adaptation, including review of knowledge on wetland carbon fluxes;
- Wetlands and human health, and issues of wetland ecosystem health (speaking to the COP10 theme of "Healthy wetlands, Healthy people");
- Wetlands, agriculture and water resource interactions;
- Further development of the Convention's ecological effectiveness indicators, linked with the 2010 biodiversity indicators work;
- Describing ecological character and detecting, reporting and responding to change in such character;
- An overall framework for the Convention's data and information needs; and
- Methodologies and advice, including biogeographic regionalization, for gap analysis of the Ramsar sites network
This last will further contribute to responding to CBD Decision VII/4 on Ramsar site criteria and guidance. In addition, we anticipate that, as part of follow-up work to several aspects of this current work, the Panel will recommend that it undertakes in the next triennium a further in-depth review and consolidation of the guidelines for applying Ramsar site Criteria and of the structure and content of the Ramsar Information Sheet used for site designation.
The Panel is also currently preparing its advice to COP10 on future scientific and technical priorities for work in the next triennium. This will include inter alia further attention to issues of climate change and of invasive species. The recommendations you agree here will also be taken into account in this future prioritization. We will also be discussing further the streamlining of our joint work when the chairs of our subsidiary bodies meet in Bonn in May (CSAB2).
Concerning the request in Decision VIII/20 for a Ramsar lead in developing a framework for harmonized reporting between Ramsar and CBD, we are most grateful to UNEP for supporting UNEP-WCMC to undertake work on this matter in the past year, as part of the UNEP Conventions' Knowledge Management project. A draft report on such a framework is in hand and will be reviewed at a project meeting next month. The good news is that the draft report finds that such harmonized reporting is a feasible proposition, but the report also raises a number of issues and pre-conditions which will need to be resolved if we are successfully to operationalise such an approach.
Finally, concerning enhancing information and resources on our CBD/Ramsar collaborations on our Web sites, I am pleased to report that Ramsar will during this year be initiating a major re-development of the Ramsar Web site, and the scope of this redevelopment will include considerations of such enhancements on our collaborations and the roles played by our respective processes.
The opportunity of the upcoming in-depth review of the CBD inland waters programme of work will offer us all an opportunity to address all these, and of course many more, matters so as to streamline our future operations and collaboration - not just on inland waters, but in relation to wetlands and water more generally, wherever they occur.
Thank you.

A major shift is taking place in the workforce. More women are becoming the breadwinners at home.
A new study that included data from the census shows that a record number of women are bringing home more money than their spouses.
Also, more men are now staying home while their wives bring home the bacon.
In 1988, 16-percent of women made more than their husbands. Last year, the number grew to 28-percent. That equates to about 12 million households.
The figures indicate that education plays a huge role in this.
Most colleges are now graduating more women than men, and females are earning about 57-percent of bachelor's degrees in this country, and about 60-percent of all master's degrees.
But despite all of this, wage inequality still exists. On average, women get paid 77-cents for every dollar a man earns doing the same work.

Official Website of the City of Milwaukee
CALL for Action (414) 286-CITY | Click for Action
NIDC is affiliated with the City of Milwaukee's Department of City Development.
TINs sustain and increase owner-occupancy, provide high quality affordable rental housing, strengthen property values, and improve neighborhood physical appearance and quality of life. TINs focus resources for 3 years on a small area, generally 6 to 12 city blocks.
The Homebuyer Assistance Program provides up to $20,000 to assist with the rehabilitation of City-owned foreclosed homes. NIDC and its development partners also have a limited number of fully rehabilitated homes available for sale.
The Rental Rehab program offers rehabilitation assistance to responsible investors who agree to rent to income-eligible tenants. The property must be a City of Milwaukee owned tax foreclosed property located in the Community Development Block Grant Area OR be located in a Targeted Investment Neighborhood (TIN) and meet program standards when the rehabilitation is complete. Generally, units must have at least 2 bedrooms to qualify.
Working with the Greater Milwaukee Foundation, this initiative focuses on a neighborhood's positive attributes and works to engage neighbors and homeowners to invest in their neighborhoods and position them as good places to live.
Forgivable loans are available to assist owner-occupants with repairs in a limited number of neighborhood-based Tax Incremental Districts, a special financing tool that enables the City to borrow against the growth of tax base in order to create a pool of loan resources.
Help for homeowners throughout the City of Milwaukee NIDC offers assistance to income-eligible owner-occupants throughout the City of Milwaukee. The Homeowners' Emergency Loan Program (HELP) is available for emergencies that, if not corrected, would make the home uninhabitable. HELP is not available for maintenance, code violations, or other work that is not a true emergency.
Matching grants of up to $3,000 are available for sustainable projects that physically enhance a neighborhood and increase resident camaraderie.
For responsible investors who are utilizing the Rent Rehabilitation Program for the acquisition and rehabilitation of a City owned property, low cost financing is available for acquisition and rehabilitation. Loans are for terms of up to one year and can provide financing for the acquisition, rehabilitation (matching funding for your rental rehabilitation forgivable loan) and lease up phase of your project.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Oil futures pared losses Thursday after the U.S. Energy Information Administration reported a bigger-than-expected climb in last week's crude inventories and a drop in gasoline supplies. Crude supplies rose by 4.1 million barrels for the week ended Feb. 15. Analysts polled by Platts expected a 2 million-barrel climb. Motor gasoline supplies fell 2.9 million barrels, while distillate stockpiles declined by 2.3 million barrels, the EIA report said. Analysts expected declines of 1.4 million barrels each for gasoline and distillate supplies. Following the latest data, which were delayed because of Monday's holiday, April crude CLJ3, +0.00% traded at $93.07 a barrel, down $2.14, or 2.3%. It was trading around $93 ahead of the report. The American Petroleum Institute reported late Wednesday that crude supplies rose 3 million barrels last week.

A Community prayer vigil will be held at Community Clubhouse in Crisp County on Sunday, September 14,2014 at 7pm.
We now know a missing Lowndes County man investigators believe faked his death faces child sex charges in Florida.
Lowndes County investigators are still trying to find 19-year-old Valdosta State University student Nathan Wilkins, after a suicide note and his clothes were found near the Little River.
Bay County, Florida officials tells us Wilkins is due in court May 6th.
Last June, he was arrested and charged with traveling to meet a minor for sexual activity and solicitation of a minor via the internet.
Yesterday, Lowndes investigators called off their search of the Little River after getting a tip that Wilkins is alive, but they are still looking for him.
"We're looking for a missing person. Regardless of his motive for being missing, we're looking for a missing person. That's our objective; find him and make sure he's safe," said Lt. Stryde Jones, Lowndes County Sheriff's Office.
Wilkins pleaded not guilty to the charges in Florida.
Lowndes investigators say they have not had any communication with Wilkins and have not charged him with any crime.

First Aid Supplies
If your are pursuing outdoor activities, you better have first aid supplies. Whether you are climbing the Half Dome at Yosemite or just working in the garden, you are going to get little injuries. Unlike generic products, All Terrain offers first aid supplies that are created with the environment and natural solutions in mind. Wherever possible, we use natural chemical-free solutions. When you are working or playing outdoors, do you deserve anything less?
About All Terrain
All Terrain's products use only natural ingredients, but are formulated for hard-core use. They are field-tested to ensure satisfaction for All Terrain's passionate, high-performance customer. Now you can enjoy that expedition, family camping trip, day hike, kayaking, gardening or day at the beach without having to use harsh chemical products to protect you from the sun, insects and whatever nature throws at you.
There is a direct correlation to time you spend outdoors and your health. The activity you do is important, but may not be as critical as just being outside. It's not just the exercise, but also the fresh air, the nourishing environment and simply getting away from the day-to-day stress. All Terrain wants to help you enjoy the outdoors in a healthy way, which is why they make natural products for the outdoors.
All Terrain also welcomes you to help raise awareness of environmental issues and to get involved in protecting the environment. The environment isn't just the oceans, mountains or national parks. It is also our local surroundings - our neighborhoods, towns, parks and trails. Protecting available space is important.
Outdoor trends indicate a significant increase in local activities compared to extended "backcountry" adventures. Given this trend, our local environment becomes even more important in our lives. It also offers an easier opportunity to contribute. We can make a difference locally and even if it's small in scale, the cumulative affect will be significant.
As a maker of natural products for the outdoors, All Terrain believes you should get the most out of your outdoors lifestyle without risking your health or gear with harsh chemical outdoors products. After all, there are plenty of natural products that can be used to enjoy the environment.
All Terrain's Company Mission
All Terrain's primary mission is to sell quality "Natural Remedies for Outdoor Enthusiasts." Environmentally conscious, All Terrain's products have all natural ingredients and their packaging is made from recycled material, recyclable and/or biodegradable. All Terrain strives in the long-term to operate in a "net zero consumption" manner.
An equally important mission is to increase awareness of environmental issues and to promote environmental conservation so that future generations can enjoy the same natural beauty we enjoy. All Terrain circulates a newsletter, Tread Softy, which discusses environmental topics and suggests how one can optimize their outdoor experience while minimizing the impact. All Terrain partners with like-minded retailers, its Environmental Partners, to increase awareness and education.

My baby wants to fly!
Dear God.
Who gave her such ideas?
Who let my baby watch that show
The one about the circus folk
My baby saw that show
My baby saw those kids!
How they have their school
How hard they work
How high they fly.
See, mommy? See?
THEIR mommy lets them fly!
What am I to do?
Now my baby cries to fly!
Aw, baby, stay here, baby!
Stay on the ground with mommy!
What if you fell?
See, baby? See?
Put away those wings you long to try
Stay here on the ground
Safe here, on the ground
Be happy here on the ground
Just like mommy!
Before you know it, baby
You won't be able to fly
Even if you wanted to
But you'll be safe here on the ground
In this circus on the ground
And any wings you may have had
Are dried up & blown away
Just like mommy's.
Why does baby want to fly?
Don't you want to be
Just like mommy?
Dear God.
My baby wants to fly!

We must never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was "legal". It was illegal to aid and comfort a Jew, in the days of Hitler's Germany. But I believe that if I had the same attitude then as I have now I would publicly aid my Jewish brothers in Germany. Our nation in a sense came into being through a massive act of civil disobedience for the Boston Tea Party was nothing but a massive civil disobedience. Those who stood up against the slave laws, the abolitionists, by and large practiced civil disobedience. So I think [those who protest unjust laws] are in good company,..they are in line with men and women through the ages who have stood up for something that is morally right.

THE BEST AND THE BRIGHTEST is almost like watching an Alfred Hitchcock thriller." -- The Boston Globe "Deeply moving . . . We cannot help but feel the compelling power of this narrative . . . .

Far and away the standard bearer for all others to try to duplicate. Scott and Peter have thought of EVERYTHING!!!!. Upon entering to a warm reception and noting the "enter as strangers leave as friends" motto we were supremely impressed with the planning, layout and ambiance of the Gazebo Inn. Since this location was recommended by dear friends we were receptive to an exceptional expectation and it was met at every turn. From the complimentary water to the complimentary outdoor area including a fabulous hot tub that could accommodate 12 + but we had it all to ourselves. We looked for something to comment on and were flabbergasted with the service and need by the staff to satisfy our every request with a flamboyance that cannot be expressed in words. A truly fantastic experience. Wished we could have stayed for a month. Breakfast was homemade from the wonderful scones to the cream filled French toast to the fresh coffee.....EXCELLENT. Having stayed at B&B's worldwide and traveling to Ogunquit for the first time we were totally impressed with all aspects of this location and plan on regular visits to share with present and new friends for a long time. Scott and Peter, you guys are GREAT.... Bill & Eileen

First of all, I have to say that if you read no further just know that this place is absolutely wonderful in every way. My daughter and I stayed here as a mother/daughter getaway and could not have been happier with our choice to stay here. We arrived and right from the start were greeted by Peter in the back parking lot showing us the perfect spot to park for our room. Then upon exiting our vehicle Scott came out, said hello to us by name, introduced himself, offered help with our luggage and then gave us a tour. The place itself is fabulous and the attention to detail is unsurpassed. Scott and Peter show great pride in everything they do and it is extremely evident in all they do and how they run the inn etc. The rooms are clean, cozy and beautiful! They have plenty of coffee and tea choices right in the room, along with 2 water bottles to refill free of charge throughout your stay. The breakfasts are so scrumptious and they have many places to sit and enjoy this every morning, inside and out. We were impressed with how as we walked I the breakfast room each morning either Scott or Peter would come out and greet us and explain the breakfast choices. To date we still wonder what the morning's breakfasts will be! The pool and hot tub are awesome, clean , and perfect temperatures. We had massages done at the spa and those were wonderful as well and very professional. There is also a great movie collection right in the gift shop that guests can use free of charge. The location is perfect...we walked to the beach multiple times a day, walked to Marginal Way and took a Trolley right into town, which has a stop right in front of the Inn. We always read reviews before we stay at a place and while we were visiting we discussed how we can't imagine what on earth someone could say negative about this place!

My husband and I recently got married and stayed at the Gazebo Inn Ogunquit for our honeymoon. This place rocked! Upon arrival, we were greeted by the owner of this wonderful establishment to give us a 30 minute tour of the entire facility. Kevin (my new husband) and I were totally blown away. This place offers everything from umbrellas, coolers, chairs for the beach, to a gourmet breakfast in the morning. Again, it is without reservation that I say, THIS PLACE ROCKS!

We stayed here over the July 4th weekend. We traveled with another couple. We all agreed that the place was wonderful. Scott, Peter and staff work hard at making it a comfortable and welcoming. My husband and I were in house suite 10. Loved the room. It was on the ground floor by the pool. The shower and bath combo is the best. Great jetted tub and a fantastic shower. The shower and tub are behind glass doors. Breakfast was excellent. Changed every morning. One morning it was blueberry pancakes another morning we had the most delicious scrambled eggs and there were always a breakfast meat and potatoes. There was also fresh baked scones every morning. We would definitely come back here when we are in Maine. Thank you Scott, Peter and staff for a great stay.

We have stayed at many B&Bs over the years, and this is the one all others will now be judged by! Every part of our stay was stellar, and relaxing. The owners are friendly but not pushy, which is harder than it sounds. They were very helpful when I wanted to surprise my husband with a pie - he was very pleased to have it waiting in the room, along with our anniversary balloons, champagne and chocolate covered strawberries (THE best I've ever had!) The food was great, excellent selection for every taste to start the day off, and a nice little area to eat in, while not being on top of each other. The bed, oh the bed, was seriously the most comfortable Ive ever slept in. Just overall comfortable mattress, and the layers of blankets and sheets were incredibly high quality (and you can buy them!). Lying down felt very indulgent, right to the pillows that were like clouds! The room (king 5) was gorgeous, including the bathroom. Obviously care was put into every room, and the water pressure was great, which has usually been one of our disappointments when traveling. Our room was convenient to the pool and hot tub, which was a treat. We did alot of walking and after such a long cold winter, the salt water hot tub was incredible, very indulgent and a great set up - even if several couples are out, you each have your own area to chat privately. The location is excellent, we like to walk, so were delighted when we could cross the street and take the footbridge onto the absolutely stunning beach, then walk down to the main part of town for shopping and restaurants. The sand is silky soft, and the view is absolutely stunning and very relaxing. We were within easy distance of the center of town and the incredible Marginal Way - a path that winds along the coast. If you're adventurous, you can climb on the huge jetties, we did and had a blast! This is definitely one out our 'we have to get away' places, especially after a long winter, this is the perfect place to recharge!

Wow! You know you have reached a new level of hospitality when you drive up the entrance to The Gazebo and after only a few yards you leave the hustle of Route 1 traffic far behind. Scott and Peter greet you like old friends and make you feel at home from the start. Take the tour, as you want to make sure you know all that is available...the level of comfort will melt away all stress. Here is a place that has expertly honed the art if hospitality. And while the prices may be higher than what you're used to, you get far more than your money's worth. Our time there was regrettably short but left us wanting to return to experience the pool and hot tub surrounded by what undoubtedly will be a riot of color in a beautifully landscaped and flowered terrace. BTW, we have experienced no other property that offers such a huge variety of extras to help celebrate a special occasion. I made a large number of brownie points from an exquisite floral arrangement and box of chocolates for my husband that were waiting for us in our room. The custom-made furniture adds to the comfort of each room and the awesome lounge in the rustic barn will blow you away. Go see for yourself and treat yourself to some quality time at the best place in southern Maine. You deserve it...we did!

We had a wonderful weekend at the Gazebo Inn. We enjoyed using the hot tub, especially the privacy offered by the different sides. We had a fantastic couples massage right on the premises, which made it extra relaxing. The breakfasts were delicious! Scott and Peter really pay attention to every detail. Definitely will be recommending the Gazebo Inn to our family and friends.

Heaven is a place on earth and it's called the Gazebo Inn :) This was our third stay at the Gazebo Inn. We stayed one night in King 2 and another night in King 7. Both rooms were amazing. Our hosts are always fantastic and they were especially helpful this visit with our wants and changing plans. Breakfast was amazing as always. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet season of the community. The Gazebo Inn is our "go to" place to relax and recharge.

We felt so comfortable at the Gazebo Inn! When getting away for a weekend you look for comfort and relaxation and that is what we experienced. From the minute we walked in Peter and Scott made us feel very welcomed. Not to mention The fabulous breakfast served and I am a bacon and eggs guy! The scones were so delicious we bought some to bring home with us!

I very seldom give five stars to anything since it implies perfection, but I can't find a single negative for the Gazebo Inn in Ogunquit, Maine. This past week was the fifth or sixth time we have stayed and once again they exceeded all expectations. The room was fantastic, the staff make you feel like a member of the family, the breakfasts were to die for. I mean six different types of coffee, three kinds of juice, fresh fruit, yogurt, cereal, a different specialty every morning, (Tuesday was French toast stuffed with cream cheese and strawberry preserves!), two kinds of breakfast meats, home fries with a sautéed vegetable medley. Let me put it this way, you don't have to eat lunch! And when you leave to come home, you're already planning your next visit. The Gazebo is the place to stay on the Maine coast! Oops, I almost forgot to mention the huge outdoor hot tub! Don't miss it.

The financial-services firm Edward Jones ranked No. 11 on Fortune magazine's "100 Best Companies to Work For 2011" list in its 12th appearance on the prestigious list, said John Anthony Melo, an Edward Jones financial advisor in Melbourne.
Edward Jones also ranked No. 2 for large-sized companies and was the highest ranking financial-services firm.
Edward Jones' 12 Fortune rankings also include top 10 finishes for eight years and consecutive No. 1 rankings in 2002 and 2003 and consecutive No. 2 rankings in 2009 and 2010.
"The fact that we've been on the list for 12 years speaks to the consistency of our business model and our focus of working with individual investors. In addition, our partnership allows us to share the ownership of the firm with those men and women who help us to be successful," said Edward Jones managing partner, James D. Weddle.
Currently, Edward Jones has nearly 900 positions available throughout the country, mostly for financial advisors and branch office administrators.
Each Edward Jones branch office includes one financial advisor and one branch office administrator who work one-on-one with clients in the communities where those clients live.
To pick the 100 Best Companies to Work For, Fortune partners with the Great Place to Work Institute to conduct the most extensive employee survey in corporate America.
A total of 311 companies participated in this year's survey. Two-thirds of a company's score is based on the results of the institute's Trust Index survey, which is sent to a random sample of employees from each company.
The survey asks questions related to their attitudes about management's credibility, job satisfaction and camaraderie.
The other third of the scoring is based on the company's responses to the institute's Culture Audit, which includes detailed questions about pay and benefit programs and a series of open-ended questions about hiring practices, internal communications, training, recognition programs and diversity efforts.

Atlanta police have ended their search for a homeless man who is accused of attacking a waiter and biting off a chunk of his lip.
Investigators have charged Carl Winston, better known as "Cyrus," with aggravated battery disfigurement for the crime. Winston was booked into the Fulton County Jail Saturday. Police said he turned himself in after seeing himself on television.
The attack happened last Friday outside the Flying Biscuit, a popular Midtown eatery, when a waiter named Rodney Scott stepped outside for a smoke break.
That's when police said Cyrus attacked Scott. Security camera video showed Cyrus on top of Scott, striking him several times in the face before being pulled off by patrons.
Following the attack, witnesses said Cyrus was seen running off towards Midtown.
Investigators said that a confrontation between the two earlier in the evening likely caused the attack. Scott had asked Cyrus to leave the restaurant because he was soliciting guests for food and money.
On Friday, Scott told CBS Atlanta News he has not been able to work since the attack and is concerned about paying his household and medical bills.
CBS Atlanta News also contacted Flying Biscuit, and a representative for the restaurant responded to the incident in a statement:
"We are, however, helping the employee by providing funding for all of his medical bills. We remain diligent about our commitment to the safety of our employees and customers and continue to work closely with the local authorities throughout this investigation."

BYU's football program has received some surprising commitments from high school football stars throughout the years, but the one coach Bronco Mendenhall got this weekend might just rank among the most shocking ever.
Logan High linebacker Chasen Andersen, son of former Utah State coach Gary Andersen -- who is now at Wisconsin -- said Sunday evening that he has committed to play football for BYU.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
"I did, yup," Andersen said. "I wanted to go down there and check it out. I just felt very comfortable down there and felt like it was the right place for me."
So what happened when he called his dad to tell him the news?
"He was excited," Chasen said. "He was really, really excited. He's all for it."
Chasen, 6-foot and 220 pounds, said he has enjoyed meeting BYU assistant coaches Kelly Poppinga, Nick Howell and Paul Tidwell and that those coaches convinced him he can flourish in BYU's defensive system. He will play one of BYU's two inside linebacker positions: buck or mike. The Cougars see him eventually performing like all-independent LB Brandon Ogletree, who is graduating.
"My mindset is to go play four straight years and see what I can do," he said. "I may redshirt if that's what they decide, but I will go in there hoping to earn some playing time right away."
Andersen blew out his ACL, MCL and meniscus the third play of the first game last fall, so he wasn't recruited as heavily as he might have been. As a junior, he led Class 4A in tackles with 156 and was a standout at BYU's camp last summer, drawing a surprise scholarship offer from Cougar coaches.
Utah State offered him last fall, and he committed to the Aggies. But things changed, obviously, when his father took the Wisconsin job.
Chasen said he still had the offer from new USU coach Matt Wells, along with offers from Weber State, Montana State and Montana Tech. Wisconsin offered him preferred walk-on status.
Former Sky View star JD Falslev, BYU's senior receiver, hosted Andersen in Provo this weekend
So how will all this go over in Aggie Nation?
"I was worried about it, but I think people will understand," Chasen said.
Andersen was one of 23 or so recruits who visited BYU's campus this weekend. Most of the visitors have already committed to BYU, but about a half-dozen had not.
The Cougars also received a commitment from Josh Carter, a transfer from Eastern Arizona College in Thatcher, Ariz.
Carter, a 6-foot-5, 280-pound lineman, recently returned from an LDS Church mission to Salt Lake City. He was highly recruited out of the Tucson, Ariz., area before his mission, but not so much after.Next Page >

Samsung Galaxy NX Review
Samsung Galaxy NX Review – Verdict
The Samsung Galaxy NX is an interesting concept. After using it over a prolonged period, you really get the sense this is the direction more interchangeable lens cameras will be taking in the future to appeal to the younger generation who regularly like to let others know where they've been and what they've photographed via social media.
For more traditional digital photographers who enjoy the process of editing images on the the computer and aren't concerned about instant uploading and sharing, it's unlikely to be used to its full potential and many features may never be used.
The Galaxy NX is an improvement on every area of the Galaxy Camera. Not only does it offer more versatility with its interchangeable lens design, it shoots in Raw, feels much more refined in the hand and doesn't require you to pack a number of spare batteries to get through a days shooting. There are a few lenses still missing from the NX-series range, such as a fast standard prime, but Samsung have said that by 2016 there will be as many as 20 optics to choose from in the line up to make it a more appealing system.
The two drawbacks are its temperamental Raw write issues and its price. Being a completely new innovation and with no other interchangeable lens android cameras on the market, you would half expect to pay a slight premium for, but at £1299 is too high a price for the young audience Samsung are attempting to target.
If it's anything like the Galaxy camera, we can expect the price to drop below the four figure mark fairly quickly, but as it stands it is overpriced and if you're looking for the very best image quality and wider selection of lenses, a DSLR with built-in Wi-fi might make a better choice, although it will lack the Android operating system.
Samsung has definitely hit the nail on the head with the concept of the Galaxy NX and we're confident this isn't the last Android interchangeable lens camera we'll see. With a few modifications, a more affordable price and a wider range of lenses, the Samsung Galaxy NX could be a challenger for mid-price DSLRs in the future.
