Readers' Opinions
From 184.108.40.206 on March 22, 2010 at 10:01 AM
I feel sorry for Journey to Atlantis, it doesn't stand a chance...
From Paul Jeffs on March 22, 2010 at 10:03 AM
JtA is a unique ride that has been allowed to fall into a pretty bad state, but in the end it's just a flume and coaster bolted together, albeit in an entertaining way.
Spidey however is/was a true game changer that even Disney haven't manged to match yet. Spidey FTW!
From Joshua Counsil on March 22, 2010 at 10:07 AM
First vote!
Is this even a contest?
Spiderman = perfect.
I can usually forgive crappy theming if the thrills suffice (e.g. Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls), but Atlantis doesn't pack either. Epic fail.
Also, at least two people out of 26 have voted for Atlantis. Robert - could you figure out their IP addresses and contact their local insanity asylums?
From Dionne Oliver on March 22, 2010 at 10:43 AM
Spiderman is just to good,the best ride at IOA.
From 126.96.36.199 on March 22, 2010 at 10:48 AM
Undoubtedly Spiderman. The best, and probably most unintentionally humorous part of Atlantis is the theme from Beetlejuice being the soundtrack for the exciting part.
From James Rao on March 22, 2010 at 11:03 AM
I <3 Spider-Man!
From Manny Barron on March 22, 2010 at 11:03 AM
JtA is fun, but spidey is the best theme park attraction in the country.
From Charles Reichley on March 22, 2010 at 11:08 AM
Minor complaint: The passthrough link for "Journey to Atlantis" is going to "Kraken", not "Journey to Atlantis"
From Joe Schwartz on March 22, 2010 at 11:17 AM
Spidey is still the besst there is and JTA which was once a very good ride needs some work. No contest.
From Michael Owen on March 22, 2010 at 11:48 AM
Spider-Man is by far and away the better attraction, but Journey to Atlantis still holds its weight and is great fun.
From Joshua Counsil on March 22, 2010 at 1:26 PM
The Busch fans must be out in full force - 27% for Journey? Come on, really?
From Raul Araoz on March 22, 2010 at 1:28 PM
Atlantis is a really good ride. However, it is no contest when it is put against the greatest Universal attraction ever created.

Can this sink be used with Granite as an Undermount Lavatory Sink if I wanted to use that application for this tile-in Sink?
A. The Kohler K-2257 can be used in this way. The only thing you would still have to account for is the max deck thickness of the faucet when mounting.
Is "tile-in" what I need for a Spanish style sink?
The Kohler K-2257 is tiled-in by installing tile over the metal rim around the outer edge of the sink. For pre-existing tile counters, you can use a drop-in style sink.

Frida Artist Bio and Lyrics
The Swedish 80's musical artist Frida was born Anni-Frid Synni Lyngstad on the 15th of November 1945. Frida is a renowned singer, perhaps best known for her work as a member of the pop group ABBA. She is of Norwegian and German descent.
In the English speaking world, Frida's solo career was launched in the year 1982 as ABBA was in the process of disbanding. Phil Collins produced her debut album, Something's Going On, which made it to the top of the charts in Sweden and also did well in the United Kingdom and the United States. The album boasted the well known single "I Know There's Something Going On," which made it on to the Top Ten charts around the world.
In the United States, it made it to the 13th position on the charts. In France, it made it to the Number One position, while in Australia, it finished at Number Five. The song's music video received heavy rotation on MTV. The following year, Lygstand would be busy assisting on the musical Abbacadabra – The Musical.
Frida's next solo album, Shine, was released in the year 1984. It was moderately successful, making it on to the Top Twenty in several European countries. In the years that followed, Frida busied herself with environmental activism. She has released several one off recordings since then.
The albums of Frida include Frida, Frida ensam, Djupa andetag, Something's Going On, Shine, Anni-Frid Lyngstand – Min egen stad, Pa egen hand, Tre kvart fran nu, Anni-Fird Lyngstad – 1967-1972, and Frida – The Mixes.

Our opinion: Santorum's exit hurts Texas vote
Rick Santorum's departure from the Republican presidential nomination race last week delighted many party leaders who want to begin directing their aim at President Obama and disappointed others who doubt Mitt Romney's conservative pronouncements.
Many people in Texas and 18 other states, regardless of their political preferences, are dispirited because they think they have effectively been rendered irrelevant.
With Romney now virtually assured the nomination, many Texans will feel the race has been decided for them.
Add that to the long list of unhappy consequences of delaying the Texas primaries from March 6 to May 29 because of legal challenges to the redistricting maps drawn last year by the Texas Legislature.
Another distressing result may be that voter turnout, which probably would have been low anyway, will decline even more.
We hope that's not the case.
Many important nominating decisions remain on the ballot for primary voters, from U.S. Senate to county offices.
Still, it's undeniable that the end of the GOP presidential contest saps much of the interest in the race.
Santorum will be only a historical footnote, but many will remember the grit and determination he showed in getting this far.
After barely registering in the polls for months last year he catapulted into the top ranks with a victory in Iowa, then mounted a creditable campaign despite having far less money than Romney. His social conservatism resonated with many in Texas and elsewhere.
In the end, it probably was the fear of losing in his home state of Pennsylvania next week that convinced him to fold his tent.
Had he stayed in the race, the odds were good he would have put Texas in his win column.

This British West Indies island has beautiful, uncrowded beaches and rivals St. Barts as a vacation mecca for the rich and famous.
Best for: Food enthusiasts. There are 100 places to eat in Anguilla's 35 square miles. Cuisine ranges from roadside bistros serving local specialties to pristine seaside restaurants catering to passionate gourmands.
Not for: Serious shoppers. Unlike islands with slews of duty-free shops, Anguilla's retail offerings are basically limited to galleries showing the work of local artists and hotel gift shops.
Highlight: Water-taxi to tiny Scilly Cay for a barbecued lobster curry lunch. Grab a waterside table at the islet's restaurant, place an order, and snorkel while you await your meal (264-497-5123).
Sweet Dreams: Cap Juluca is a luxurious hotel on a sweeping strip of beach. White villas topped with Moorish domes house guest rooms, which have massive, shuttered windows and balconies overlooking the Caribbean (888-858-5822; capjuluca.com [1]). Kú, a new hotel, appeals to a chic but slightly less-moneyed set. This 27-room spot on Shoal Bay East takes inspiration from Miami's South Beach in its pastel décor. And its white-sand beach is lovely (800-869-5827; kuanguilla.com).
Antigua is a water world, with beautiful beaches for sunbathers and perfect anchorages for sailors. Even its most historic attraction—Nelson's Dockyard, once home to the British fleet in the Caribbean—is thoroughly nautical.
Best for: Canoodling and skinny-dipping on serene, secluded beaches. Another plus: The atmosphere at most of the resorts is decidedly romantic and sophisticated—not too "kiddie" and not too commercial.
Not for: Couples who hope to browse for luxury goods at duty-free shops.
Highlight: The Home Restaurant. Make time to enjoy an authentic West Indian feast at this top-rated gem (thehomerestaurant.com [2]; 268-461-7651).
Sweet Dreams: For laid-back elegance, the Curtain Bluff Resort is a sure thing—especially because all of its 72 rooms have stunning views of an unspoiled beach and the blue Atlantic. Room 75 has a balcony with a Jacuzzi (888-289-9898; curtainbluff.com [3]). A more affordable option: The 19-room Coco's Antigua, an intimate all-inclusive property, is chic and romantic (cocoshotel.com [4]; 268-460-2626).
Quiet lounging isn't Aruba's big draw—instead, people visit this desert island for near-perfect weather year-round and for the opportunity to fill their itineraries with activities.
Best for: Honeymooners who want a party scene, shopping, scuba diving, kitesurfing and windsurfing.
Not for: Couples who dream of tropical jungles and majestic mountains (Aruba is dry and flat). However, its beaches are spectacular, with powdery sand and crystal-clear water.
Highlight: The ultimate must-do for honeymooners: a private sunset sail via catamaran. Your concierge can help you arrange one.
Sweet Dreams: The 104-room Bucuti Beach Resort Aruba is a favorite for honeymooners who crave seclusion and luxury, in part because it's set on Eagle Beach, the largest and prettiest on the island. Rooms feature king-size beds, private terraces and chic, contemporary furnishings (888-4-BUCUTI; bucuti.com [5]). Meanwhile, the more affordable 119-room Divi Dutch Village Beach Resort is revamping the décor of its suites with punched-up colors and wicker furnishings (dividutchvillage.com [6]; 297-583-5000).
British Virgin Islanders could drape the terminal at Beef Island Airport in a giant banner that reads, "Welcome to the Sailing Capital of the World"—although they'd never actually do anything so crass. But that's essentially what the BVI has become over the past 30 years: the globe's number-one spot for summer (and honeymoon) sailors.
Best for: Couples who want to learn the basics of sailing and spend their nights at a private-island resort. Or newlyweds with enough experience beneath the mast to sail off on their own bareboat charter honeymoon.
Not for: Anyone who prefers the self-serve piña colada machines and 24/7 party scene at a mega-resort. These islands are really for those who want peace and quiet with their tropical paradise.
Highlight: Spending a day alone on Anegada, a coral atoll, where there's always an empty beach and an offshore wreck waiting to be explored by scuba divers or snorkelers.
Sweet Dreams: The BVI is famous for posh resorts. But one of the archipelago's most romantic digs is the almost legendary Sandcastle Hotel, on secluded Jost Van Dyke island. This is the Caribbean straight out of Jimmy Buffett—hammocks strung between coconut palms, cool breezes and cold beer, cottages draped in bougainvillea and hibiscus, and a bar packed with people from all around the world telling seafaring yarns (sandcastle-bvi.com [7]; 284-495-9888). Want that super-indulgent, posh resort experience? BVI also has a half-dozen private-island resorts, including the renowned Peter Island (peterisland.com [8]; 800-346-4451).
The islands that make up the Cayman Islands (Grand Cayman, Little Cayman and Cayman Brac) are surrounded by gorgeous, clear water, making them a diving hot spot. They also have a culture of politesse, which makes visitors feel safe and at home.
Best for: Couples who appreciate high-end resorts and the high-stakes adventure of wall diving.
Not for: Those who want to explore local villages for exotic cultural experiences. The Caymans have an American standard (and style) of living.
Highlight: Scuba divers love the Sunken City of Atlantis, where a local artist is constructing a below-the-surface city with sculptures cast from rock, sand and cement—all of which are fostering the growth of a brand-new reef (800-594-0843; bracreef.com/dive_atlantis.html [9]).
Sweet Dreams: The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman opened in December on Grand Cayman's famous Seven-Mile Beach. It has a La Prairie spa, a Greg Norman golf course and a restaurant overseen by the chef of Le Bernardin, the New York City French food palace. Rooms have private terraces, and there are also secluded oceanfront condos (ritzcarlton.com [10]; 345-943-9000). A more moderately priced choice are the accommodations at the Rocky Shore Villas. It has charming rooms—some in private cottages—and offers classes on traditional island cooking and fishing (866-845-6945; getaway.ky).
Locals are proud that Barbados retains more British flavor than any other Caribbean landfall: Afternoon tea, driving on the left and cricket are a few of the customs the Brits left behind. And unlike islands where traditions are fading, Bajans (as the islanders call themselves) embrace these customs as part of their national character.
Best for: Pretending that you're in a tropical England. Dig into a champagne-and-caviar picnic while watching a match at the Barbados Polo Club (246-432-1802), or attend a garden party hosted by the Barbados Horticulture Society (246-428-5889).
Not for: Spring-break party scenes. The club-and-café area around the Careenage yacht basin in downtown Bridgetown can get pretty rowdy on weekends, but this isn't a place for party animals.
Highlight: Walking hand-in-hand down the wildly romantic Bathsheba Beach, knowing that a young Queen Elizabeth II once strolled here, too.
Sweet Dreams: With a recent $200 million ultra-extreme makeover, the legendary Sandy Lane is back among the Caribbean's best hotels. From the palatial guest rooms and luxury spa to the 18-hole golf course, everything has been upgraded and outfitted with the best that money can buy. And they really do treat you like royalty (246-444-2000; sandylane.com [11]). The St. Lawrence Gap area is full of less-expensive alternatives, including the nifty little Southern Palms Beach Club, which features brightly decorated rooms along a lovely beach (southernpalms.net [12]; 246-428-7171).
This little Dutch island off the coast of Venezuela is a melting pot of people from all around the globe: More than 50 different nationalities and ethnic groups are represented in an area about a sixth of the size of Rhode Island. This mix of cultures makes Curaçao one of the most cosmopolitan places on the planet—an island of interesting food, intriguing art and pretty good duty-free shopping.
Best for: Couples who crave a side dish of art and architecture with their coconut-palm-tree-and-turquoise-bay honeymoon entrée.
Not for: Die-hard beachcombers. Curaçao has its nice strands, but they're few and far between, and not in the same league as those of more fabled Caribbean beach destinations.
Highlight: Roaming the island's Punda and Otrobanda districts, where hundreds of Dutch-colonial buildings have been lovingly restored and are now restaurants, bars, music clubs, art galleries and duty-free shops.
Sweet Dreams: The Kurá Hulanda Hotel, Spa & Casino in Otrobanda offers a model upon which every Caribbean boutique hotel should base itself. The resort is located in an ancient, walled colonial compound with cobblestone streets, pastel walls and one of the best museums in the Caribbean, making a stay there feel like a journey back in time (877-264-3106; kurahulanda.com [13]). Couples with a hankering for a beachfront setting should check out the Curaçao Marriott Beach Resort & Emerald Casino (800-223-6388; marriott.com [14]).
With 60 percent of the island still covered in rain forest—much of it protected within the confines of national parks—and more than 365 rivers (one for each day of the year), Dominica is a Caribbean version of the Garden of Eden.
Best for: Couples who donate to Greenpeace or the Sierra Club. Dominica has staked its future on eco-tourism, and the island offers visitors everything from guided rain-forest hikes and jungle river adventures to what many people consider the best whale-watching in the West Indies.
Not for: Anyone who expects luxury spas, Cordon-Bleu cooking, satellite TV or door-to-door limo service. Dominica is the unspoiled Caribbean—modest, economical and drop-dead gorgeous.
Highlight: A romantic dip (skinny or otherwise) at Emerald Pool in Morne Trois Pitons National Park or in one of the dozens of other secluded waterfalls that are scattered about this incredibly lush, green island.
Sweet Dreams: Perched along the waterfront of the island's largest town, Fort Young Hotel is within the stone walls of a ruined 18th-century British-colonial fort. Friendly and comfortable but certainly not fancy, the hotel offers a perfect base for exploring the rest of Dominica and a most happening scene on Friday nights, when the rum punch flows freely to the sounds of live reggae and calypso (011-767-448-5000; fortyounghotel.com [15]). Or get back to nature at the wildly romantic Beau Rive, on the secluded east coast (beaurive.com [16]; 011-767-445-8992).
Friendly people, a vibrant culture, miles of beaches and affordable resorts all attract visitors to the bustling, Spanish-flavored Dominican Republic.
Best for: Couples who crave adventure in the sun. You can hike 10,000-foot peaks, windsurf in terrific cruising grounds, scout for humpback whales, snorkel and scuba dive with a kaleidoscopic array of fish and bike through the fecund countryside.
Not for: Haute cuisine. Chicken dinners with sides of rice and fried plantains are the norm. Your best bet is to choose the grilled fish—more than likely, it's just off the boat.
Highlight: Protected by a barrier reef, the bay at Cabarete, 23 miles east of Puerto Plata, is an ideal place for beginners to try windsurfing. The Carib BIC Center offers equipment and instruction for one hour or one week (809-571-0640; caribwind.com [17]).
Sweet Dreams: You'll feel lost in the tropics at the Punta Cana Resort, where palm trees sprout around the beach villas and nature trails snake through the thickly jungled grounds. There's also a P.D. Dye-designed golf course, where 12 of the 18 holes face the ocean (888-442-2262; puntacana.com [18]). When you're not zipping across the water at Cabarete, relax in one of the hammocks at the Velero Beach Resort. All junior suites are smack-dab on the beach and equipped with a full kitchen. It's good to know you can grab a cool one from the fridge at any time (velerobeach.com [19]; 809-571-9727).
Also called "The Spice Island," Grenada has grown its trademark nutmeg, along with mace, cinnamon and cloves, for centuries. The island is home to mountainous rain forests alive with tropical birds and monkeys, white- and black-sand beaches, and welcoming people.
Best for: Outdoorsy couples who love to get their feet wet will enjoy exploring Grenada's lush jungles, waterfalls and beautiful beaches.
Not for: Name-droppers and party animals; though in some cases decidedly luxurious, Grenada is wonderfully low-key and unpretentious.
Highlight: Explore Grand Etang National Park, where you can hike to the Seven Sisters Waterfalls and jump in for a swim, or go tubing down the Balthazar River. Adventure Jeep Tours offers tubing trips (473-444-5337; grenadajeeptours.com [20]); guides for jungle treks include Henry Safari Tours (473-444-4460; spiceisle.com/safari [21]) and Mr. Telfor Bedeau (473-442-6200).
Sweet Dreams: Spice Island Beach Resort's 64 newly renovated rooms stretch along the golden sands of Grand Anse Beach (the island's most famous strand). All have oversize whirlpool tubs, Frette linens, Molton Brown amenities and a patio or balcony. The 1,500-square-foot suites come with a private plunge pool (473-444-4258; spiceislandbeachresort.com [22]). A more affordable option along Grand Anse is the 63-room Flamboyant Hotel & Villas. All rooms have ocean views with patios or terraces; studios have kitchenettes (800-223-9815; flamboyant.com [23]).
There's no better place for a laid-back honeymoon, where you'll listen to hip-swaying music at every turn, than Jamaica—the birthplace of reggae.
Best for: Music fans. Bob Marley lovers can hop on Chukka Caribbean Adventures' Zion bus tour, which takes you through the countryside of St. Ann, the music legend's home parish (876-972-2506; chukkacaribbean.com [24]). Or, you can take a snorkeling cruise in Montego Bay's Marine Park; after your dive, the music and dancing begin right on deck (876-952-5860; calicosailingcruises.com [25]).
Not for: City slickers. If dusty roads and ordering a Red Stripe beer from a beverage stand on the roadside just aren't your thing, you could while away the hours of your honeymoon at your resort. But if you do, you'll miss out on the people and atmosphere that make the island so special.
Highlight: Traveling in January? Check out the jazz and blues festival, which is held annually in Montego Bay and features contemporary reggae artists like Maxi Priest and Shaggy.
Sweet Dreams: Situated in a secluded area of central Jamaica, Jake's, a 29-room boutique hotel, offers a music library filled with sounds from around the world. One of the best parts about staying there: the affordable room rate (800-688-7678; islandoutpost.com [26]). If you don't mind paying a bit more, book a room at the sleek, 398-room Half Moon resort in Montego Bay (876-953-2211; halfmoon.com [27]).
Martinique could easily pass for the south of France—whitewashed walls and red-tile roofs, techno pouring from the open doors of a waterfront disco, the aroma of garlic and wine wafting from some country kitchen, the tricolor flying from French naval ships. It's the tropical beaches—and those ubiquitous coconut-palm trees—that keep reminding you that you are actually in the Caribbean.
Best for: Couples who like to shop together. The boutiques and department stores near Martinique's Place de la Savane, in Fort-de-France, and La Galleria shopping center, near the airport, offer a veritable buffet of French luxury goods for browsing—upscale fashions, perfume, jewelry, wine and gourmet foods—and many of them are straight from Paris.
Not for: Anyone who expects the locals to speak English. Martinique is a full-fledged French department, a status that is similar to Hawai'i's in the U.S. Parlez-vous Français?
Highlight: The local food, which is a delicious combination of zesty Caribbean Creole cooking and classic French cuisine. It's especially delightful when you dine alfresco at an old plantation house restaurant, like La Grange (try the foie gras and roast duck; 596-53-60-60) or Céron (spicy seafood delights; 596-52-97-03).
Sweet Dreams: Created by a descendant of one of the island's first French settlers, the new Cap Est Lagoon Resort & Spa blends old-world pampering and 21st-century amenities like plasma-screen TVs and private plunge pools. Already a retreat for Euro-rich and royals, the resort sprawls along one of Martinique's most picturesque bays (596-54-80-80; capest.com [29]). Those traveling on a tighter budget can opt for the beachfront Sofitel Bakoua (595-66-02-02; sofitel.com [30]).
Little Nevis, one of the smallest landfalls in the Caribbean, has a huge heart, making it one of the most friendly islands for visitors. With countryside dotted by old sugarcane plantations and highlands dominated by a hulking volcano, Nevis is also one of the most scenic of the Caribbean isles.
Best for: Laid-back honeymoons with an emphasis on activities such as lounging in bed, lying around the pool and maybe a little limin' (hanging out) around the hotel bar at night.
Not for: Adrenaline freaks. Scuba diving, deep-sea fishing, golf and horseback riding are readily available, but Nevis is not the place to come if you want to spend your honeymoon on the back of a WaveRunner.
Highlight: Rent a car and drive the round-island road, only 20 miles and easily doable in a single morning or afternoon. Stop along the way in quaint villages, in old country churches, at the daily street market in Charlestown and on the golden sands of Pinney's Beach.
Sweet Dreams: It would be difficult to find, anywhere on the planet, a more romantic setting than the Nisbet Plantation Beach Club, tucked in a coconut grove beside a beach. Although little remains of the 18th-century plantation—the childhood home of Horatio Nelson's wife, Frances Nisbet—the bygone charm endures, making it a place to act out your own tropical version of Pride and Prejudice (nisbetplantation.com [31]; 800-742-6008). If an ultramodern retreat is your style, the Four Seasons Resort Nevis, on Pinney's Beach, should be just right (fourseasons.com/nevis [32]; 800-819-5053).
This huge, mountainous island may be part of the U.S.A., but the thoroughly Latin ambience gives it the feel of an exotic foreign land. You can base yourself in one place (like San Juan or the west coast) or undertake a motoring honeymoon that encompasses a number of destinations.
Best for: Couples who think that variety is the spice of life. In Puerto Rico you can have a big-city or a middle-of-nowhere honeymoon. You can stay at an ultramodern resort or a renovated Spanish plantation estate. You can lounge along a white-sand strand or explore jungled national parks. It's one of the few Caribbean isles that literally offers something for everyone.
Not for: People who don't like to move. Puerto Rico is a cradle of salsa. There, even wallflowers are expected to get up and dance.
Highlight: A night out in San Juan: walking the cobblestone streets of the Old Town hand in hand, dining by candlelight in a café overlooking the waterfront, and then dancing the night away at a crowded salsa club.
Sweet Dreams: Get away from it all at the secluded Bravo Beach Hotel on the island of Vieques, which lies between the main island of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Quickly gaining a reputation as one of the best new boutique hotels in the Caribbean, Bravo blends stylish retro décor with New Age amenities like satellite television, Aveda bath and beauty products, and PlayStation II in every room (787-741-1128; bravobeachhotel.com [33]). Puerto Rico has plenty of other chic sleep options, including the wildly romantic Horned Dorset Primavera on the west coast (horneddorset.com [34]; 800-633-1857).
This chic French island is all about being gorgeous, rich and famous—or at least pretending to be—whether you find yourself lounging on some beautiful beach, zipping around in a Smart Car or dining at a trendy café.
Best for: Couples who love spending time (and money) with the beautiful people. One great place to join them is over lunch at the Tom Beach hotel on St. Jean Beach (011-590-27-53-13; st-barths.com/tom-beach-hotel [35]).
Not for: L.L. Bean-wearing types most comfortable with burgers and beers, or those on a strict budget.
Highlight: Intimate and exclusive, like everything else about St. Barts, the tiny island's 14 white-sand beaches are never crowded, so it's not tough to snag a prime spot. For the best people-watching ops, along with good swimming, water-sports rentals and a selection of restaurants, try Cul-de-Sac and St. Jean beaches. For a strand that's popular with locals, visit pretty Corossol Beach, which is set near a tiny fishing village.
Sweet Dreams: Awash in the colors of the sea and sand, Baie des Anges offers 10 perfectly simple rooms, each with ocean-view terraces (011-590-27-63-61; hotelbaiedesanges.com [36]). Book a suite with a private pool, and you'll never want to venture off the grounds of the lovely 68-room Guanahani Hotel (011-590-27-66-60; leguanahani.com [37]). All rooms have garden or ocean-view terraces, Hermès bath amenities and free Internet access.
Thus far, friendly St. Kitts, which is home to green mountainside rain forests and historic sites, has remained less developed than Nevis, its sister island. While the island has been independent since 1983, it retains strong ties to its English heritage and offers a taste of an unhurried, uncrowded Caribbean.
Best for: Nature-lovers. Exploring rain forests, sugar plantations, majestic sea cliffs and the island's famous Mt. Liamuga, an extinct volcano situated at 3,792 feet above sea level, are musts for adventurous, outdoorsy couples.
Not for: Beach-lovers. If lounging on a postcard-worthy beach is your first priority (and will be your primary honeymoon activity), St. Kitts may not have enough idyllic strands to satisfy your sand-and-sea requirements.
Highlight: While some Caribbean boutiques have cheesy, commercial-grade batik clothing on offer, everything at Caribelle Batik is the real thing. Located in an adorable cottage on the grounds of a 17th-century estate, this workshop is open to visitors, who can watch artisans paint the fabrics by hand and see the finished hibiscus-red, canary-yellow and electric-blue garments drying in the sun. It's a can't-miss shopping experience—and a cultural one to boot (Romney Manor, Basseterre, St. Kitts; 869-465-6253; caribellebatik.com [38]).
Sweet Dreams: Ottley's Plantation Inn is as romantic as it gets. Situated on a hill 500 feet above sea level, this genteel, 24-room boutique resort is surrounded by thick fields of sugarcane, rain-forest trails and, in the distance, panoramic ocean views. Plan to stay in your own private cottage, with luxurious British-colonial-style appointments, as well as a private plunge pool and patio, where the cutest little green lizards are happy to keep you company while you soak up the sun (800-772-3039; ottleys.com [39]). If you're set on a beachfront location, the 62-room Timothy Beach Resort is one of the better ones, and it's a great value, too (timothybeach.com [40]; 800-288-7991).
Best known for its dramatic landmark mountains, The Pitons, the French West Indies island of St. Lucia is also home to abundant rain forests, mountainous terrain and spectacular dive sites.
Best for: Nature-lovers. If you enjoy soft-adventure excursions, then St. Lucia won't disappoint. The town of Soufriëre has some of the best spots for viewing the island's coral reefs. While you're in the area, you can also hike the Fond Gens Libre Nature Trail.
Not for: The unadventurous. The island has remained relatively underdeveloped, so the roads are bumpy, and even the most upscale resorts feel remote.
Highlight: Try a jungle-biking tour at the Anse Chastanet resort, in SoufriËre. Along the way, you'll pass mango, coconut and cocoa trees as well as an 18th-century sugar mill (800-223-1108; ansechastanet.com [41]).
Sweet Dreams: For an inexpensive—yet super-cozy—option, stay at the 33-room Ti Kaye Village, a secluded beachfront hotel on Anse Cochon. Rooms have private outdoor showers (758-456-8101; tikaye.com [42]). For pricier digs that are just as nature-friendly, there's the 25-room Ladera resort, on a hillside in Soufriëre. Rooms are open on one side, giving unobstructed access to a romantic plunge pool (800-738-4752; ladera.com [43]).
Saint Martin (or Sint Maarten, its Dutch name) has a split personality. About a third of the island is Dutch—gingerbread houses, English-speaking and home to some delicious cheese. The other two-thirds is French—a bit more posh, a bit quieter and wine that's out of this world.
Best for: Flitting back and forth between two very different European cultures. You can have lunch in Paris, dinner in Amsterdam. A morning walk along the North Sea, a sunset stroll along the Mediterranean—or at least their Caribbean equivalents.
Not for: Anyone who thinks a tropical island paradise must have a rain forest and cloud-shrouded volcanic peaks. Truth be told, both sides of the island are well-populated, and the arid, natural landscape doesn't reflect the lush, mountainous idea that many people have of the Caribbean.
Highlight: Tear yourself away from the duty-free boutiques and head for a beach. St. Martin has some terrific strands: Dawn Beach on the Dutch side; Grand Case, Orient and Longue beaches on the French.
Sweet Dreams: Settle into a Mediterranean state of mind at the Hotel l'Esplanade, which sprawls across a hillside overlooking trendy Grande Case. Just steps away are dozens of outdoor cafés and bakeries, as well as the island's most celebrated beach. The front desk can arrange all sorts of water sports, including sailing, windsurfing, deep-sea fishing and scuba ( 011-590-590-87-06-55; lesplanade.com [44]). There are plenty of hotel bargains on the Dutch side, including the historic Pasanggrahan Royal Guest House (011-599-542-3588; pasanhotel.com [45]).
If your romantic fantasies include swashbuckling sword fights (or Johnny Depp), then SVG is the place for you. This lovely archipelago in the southern Caribbean is where the original Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed and where the two sequels were recently completed. St. Vincent is the volcano-crowned main island; the Grenadines are a chain of smaller upscale landfalls that sprawl to the south along the turquoise sea.
Best for: Island-hopping. Even if you don't have your own boat, the islands are well connected by commuter flights and ferries. About a dozen boats per day ply the hour-long route between Bequia and St. Vincent.
Not for: Anyone on a tight budget. Many of the posh Grenadines (especially Mustique, Palm Island and Petit St. Vincent) have long been the haunt of the rich and famous. If you have to ask the price, these islands aren't for you.
Highlight: A speedboat trip along St. Vincent's western shore, visiting black-sand strands and places where Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow once frolicked (a.k.a. movie locations). Stop at Wallilabou Bay for lunch and check out the sets still standing from the Pirates filming.
Sweet Dreams: The new Raffles Resort Canouan Island brings Asian hospitality to Caribbean shores. It's a sprawling mega-resort with its own Trump casino, an Amrita spa, four gourmet restaurants, two white-sand beaches and an 18-hole championship golf course (check out that killer view from the 13th tee). Every room comes with panoramic ocean views and a golf cart for tooling around the lush, 300-acre estate (rafflescanouan.com [46]; 800-637-9477). Young Island, a petite private-island resort just off the coast of St. Vincent, offers romantic digs (800-223-1108; youngisland.com [47]).
Trinidad and Tobago are the odd couple of the Caribbean, islands that couldn't be more unlike one another but are now joined at the hip as one sovereign country. With its diverse population and humid lowlands, Trinidad feels more like South America than part of the West Indies. Tobago, on the other hand, is a bona fide island paradise of palm trees and golden sands.
Best for: Music fans. The birthplace of calypso, soca and the steel drum, Trinidad is where the modern Caribbean sound was first heard and continues to thrive. Even if you're not there at Carnival time, you can still catch live music at local clubs and "panyards" where the bands practice year-round.
Not for: People who don't want to leave their resorts and mix with locals. "Trinnies" are a gregarious bunch who love to hang out, brag about their islands and talk about just about anything. Spending some time getting to know them is a high point of any visit.
Highlight: Depends on the island. In Trinidad, it's a visit to the celebrated Asa Wright Nature Centre in the northern highlands, where the rain forest takes center stage. In Tobago, it's beach-hopping your way down the north shore, from Man O' War Bay to Buccoo Reef.
Sweet Dreams: "Hippie chic" flourishes at the Kariwak Village, a funky boutique hotel on Tobago that doubles as a beach resort and holistic health retreat. It's a place where yoga, tai chi and Ayurvedic massage count among the daily activities (011-868-639-8442; kariwak.com [48]). The Chancellor Hotel is perfect for couples who seek the lively urban vibe in Port of Spain, on Trinidad (888-790-5264; thechancellorhotel.com [49]).
Just over an hour's flight from Miami, this British territory is actually a chain of 40 islands and cays—many uninhabited—which you can easily hop to from the hub, Providenciales (Provo).
Best for: Exploring. It doesn't get much more romantic than chartering a private yacht to a virtually deserted island for the day. Once there, you and your new hubby can stroll along ultrawhite beaches, gaze at wild flamingoes, snorkel in turquoise waters off the world's third-largest barrier reef, then hop back on the boat for a gourmet picnic lunch. Beluga Cruises offers private sailings by catamaran (649-946-4396; sailbeluga.com [50]).
Not for: Shopping and nightlife. Unlike many Caribbean islands, the Turks and Caicos have no real town center, and there are only two local nightclubs (and the hotel bars).
Highlight: Kayaking to tiny, conch-shell-strewn islands, snaking in and out of mangrove-lined coves along the way (keep your eyes peeled for little nurse sharks and other eye-catching marine life). Big Blue, a small eco-tourist company in Provo, arranges kayak trips for groups as small as two (649-946-5034; bigblue.tc [51]).
Sweet Dreams: Just over a year old, The Palms is the hippest new boutique hotel on the island. Its 72 suites, scattered within five white coral-stone buildings, offer state-of-the-art kitchens, large terraces, Acqua di Parma amenities—even iPod docking stations for the iPod-mini you can borrow at check-in (649-946-8666; regenthotels.com/thepalms [52]). Before the Turks and Caicos developed into a luxury beach destination, there was just one tiny, quaint motel on beautiful Grace Bay Beach. It's still there today, and it's as cute as ever. A two-story, pale-pink, West-Indies-style property with traditional shuttered windows and fretted balconies, Sibonné doesn't have a spa or fancy amenities. But it does sit on prime real estate, and has a lovely open-air, beachfront bistro with a white timberwork ceiling, a small pool set in a pretty courtyard, and 28 comfortable rooms (sibonne.com [53]; 800-528-1905). —NS
Of the three main islands of the U.S. Virgin Islands—St. Thomas, St. John and St. Croix—St. Thomas offers more choices in hotels and activities, while being the most convenient to reach (most major airlines offer nonstop flights).
Best for: Sailing. The calm waters and soft breezes around the U.S.V.I. make it easy and fun to explore by boat the tiny islands that dot the bays. Winifred Charters sails through Pillsbury Sound to spots such as Mingo, Lovango and Whistling cays. Along the way you will drop anchor to take guided snorkeling trips (sailwinifred.com [54]).
Not for: Shopping. At least, not if you're looking for authentic local art and crafts. The bustling port at Charlotte Amalie is packed with shops, but they lean more toward duty-free goods than artisan crafts.
Highlight: Drake's Seat. Travelers flock to this scenic lookout during the day, but the best time to take in the panoramic view of crystal-blue Magens Bay and the British Virgin Islands is at sunset, when the crowds are gone and the two of you can have it all to yourselves.
Sweet Dreams: Honeymooners who are looking to splurge can't top the Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas. Set on 30 acres out on the far eastern tip of the island, the 152-room resort has two private, white-sand beaches and a new spa (ritzcarlton.com [55]). The red-tile-roof Sapphire Beach Resort has 171 suites, with views of either the half-mile-long beach or the 67-slip marina (sapphirebeachresort.com; 800-874-7897).

Low-cost, high-impact tips for marketing on a budgetPosted on Written by Wanda Kenton Smith
Much to my dismay, just about every marine company has slashed its marketing budget to the bare bones. We seem to be in pure survival mode, hoping each day the latest stimulus package will come along and save us.
So what's a boat-related business to do when sales are few and far between and marketing funds are all but depleted?
Regal Marine handed me that challenge when it asked me to speak to some of its dealers at a multi-day strategy summit in early December. Smart move, I thought, bringing its key players together at a traditionally slow time of year to charge their batteries and do some much-needed brainstorming.
I was assigned the topic, "Low-Budget, High-Impact Marketing Strategies."
To develop my content, I reflected on my own marine marketing experience (pushing 30 years now), coupled with some terrific insight drawn from a panel presentation I moderated at the MRAA national convention in November. Panelists — all of them leading retail marketers and Web experts — included Top 100 dealers Fred Pace of Legendary Marine and Larry Russo Sr. of Russo Marine; Wayne Sorensen of MasterCraft Dealer Services; and Web experts Bob McCann of Channel Blade and Courtney Chalmers of BoatTrader.com.
All the dealers endorsed the same marketing priority: customer contact and retention. They practice the old-fashioned guerrilla marketing philosophy I've been preaching for years — get on the phone regularly with your customers. One-on-one contact is paramount. You should also have a tracking system in place and top-down management buy-in.
I've never understood what makes dealers reluctant to work the phones this way.
Chris Poole of Canada's Buckeye Marine suggested it might be fear of rejection. I suspect it has to do with not knowing how to steer the conversation, other than going right for the jugular and jumping into the sales pitch. A much smoother approach is to invite the customer to a new-boat preview or other VIP event, or to share dealership news about shop promotions or other incentives. Every company should have at least five things to talk to its customers about.
Randy Kelly of Kelly's Port says he commits himself to writing a minimum of two personal note cards a week to customers. That's more than 100 a year. He believes that even if customers aren't in the market right now, this relationship-building strategy fosters loyalty and has a long-term payout. It's a super idea, and the price is right — a few minutes a week and a few postage stamps.
Other low-cost connection strategies include regular e-mail blasts and direct mail, along with printed or (more efficient) e-newsletters. If you don't yet do this, assign someone to get the job done.
All the dealers agreed it's crucial to remain highly visible in their markets. Russo has taken this concept to a new level by accepting an RV in trade and wrapping it with billboard-style branding. Salespeople take turns driving it for a week at a time to and from work. In a year, this drive-time exposure in the Boston metro market has been phenomenal — 5,000 miles tracked to date.
We need to carefully analyze our own media and markets to determine the best return on investment. Gone are the days when you can be anywhere and everywhere. Pace says he analyzes his results weekly through 1-800 tracking numbers and detailed Web monitoring reports. Smart thinking.
I was pleasantly surprised to learn that all the dealer marketers fully endorse investing in boat shows. While I'm a firm advocate of show participation, the cost-versus-return issue has been debated for years in the industry. However, these dealers say the shows work for them, particularly when there is well-executed pre-event and on-site promotion designed to generate traffic.
I was blown away by the promotions MasterCraft's Sorensen uses to attract kids — techniques that keep the parents (the ultimate buyers) glued to the booth or coming into showrooms. He uses everything from game show contests to Guitar Hero performances to movie showings — including premiering the latest wakeboarding flick on a giant screen, with families comfortably lounging in boats. Maybe now is the time to invest in new thinking for your show presence.
Special events give customers and prospects a reason to regularly come in to the dealership. It might be an open house with new product introductions, seminars with experts or even a weekly study group for owners who want to get their captain's license (such as Pace hosted).
It doesn't have to be a major production. Why not mix it up? Rendezvous, cruise clubs and tournaments are proven successes. Pace, for one, finds ways to reduce the cost of these events by co-promoting with other businesses. Take advantage of whatever co-op funding is available through marine partners, while also seeking outside cross-promotional opportunities.
Finally, the panel unanimously agreed that a developing trend is the move to Web-based marketing. Chalmers says traffic at the BoatTrader Web site was up 22 percent last year, and the number of boat searches increased 73 percent from the previous year. What does this suggest? We might not have a lot of folks laying out the hard cash for boats, but apparently a lot are online doing their research.
I loved Russo's statement that the Web site is "the new front door of our business." It is, indeed, the first impression for many, and we need to make sure we are maximizing that opportunity.
Both Chalmers and Channel Blade's McCann agreed Web sites have to be a priority. Content should be updated and refreshed regularly. Navigation should be easy. Some suggestions included promoting a sales message on the home page that rotates out, hosting a dedicated "specials" area and incorporating a "request-a-quote" mechanism — none a costly proposition. Unfortunately, both Web experts reported that the leads follow-up is dismal on the sites they track.
Let's quit bemoaning the lackluster sales activity and focus on just one or two of these proven, low-cost marketing strategies so we can help jump-start to spring and get our engines revving up again.

"The longer it goes, the more nerve wracking it is. So the further you have to wait, the more pressure there is, the more it starts to build up, so yeah, it's definitely a different feeling," he said, describing Tuesday's wait. "Just waiting. Just anticipation and hoping to hear your name called.Kaufman opened Tuesday's show with Usher and Bria Kelly, performing "Always on the Run."
"That's amazing. He's a phenomenal singer, somebody I listened to when I was younger and that was really cool," Kaufman said Tuesday night. "I still feel good about the song. It still did fairly well on iTunes. It's hard to go and get to the Top 10 every week, so you kind of have to mix it up and try some different things. I felt it took me a different direction, so that's good."Josh's original coach, Maroon 5's Adam Levine, said, "You are so talented and you have such an incredibly unique... that's why I love you man, because you have a unique voice. You have a powerful voice. You have all the things that you need to have a great voice, but what you also have - which you can't teach - is a tone that no one else does have."
"It's really hard to say, because anything I do is going to end up being more in that soulful sort of vein. So even if it's something that doesn't start out that way as far as the type of song that it is, that's the direction I'm going to take it. So it will fall in line with what I've done so far, just kind of depends. I'm not even sure," he said. "The further along you get, the more that's at stake, the harder it is, because the competition keeps getting stiffer and stiffer. So, yeah, you just have to really try to make the right decisions about what you want to do."Josh talked with WTHR's Andrea Morehead from Los Angeles ahead of Monday night's performance.
"I just want to say a huge thanks to everyone back in Indianapolis. Obviously, I couldn't do it without the support you guys have given me and the support I have gotten has been overwhelming. So keep it up, I hope you keep voting, keep buying the iTunes, thank you, thank you, thank you, I appreciate it."

EMBARRASS, Minn. (AP) -- You might think activity in a small township in northern Minnesota would come to a standstill when the temperature drops to 42 below zero.
Not so. The postmaster in the St. Louis County township of Embarrass says life goes on. Residents have reported to work. Children are in school. And the mail is being delivered.
The National Weather Service says Embarrass is the coldest spot in Minnesota Thursday. Other communities in the region aren't far behind; it was 39 below in Ash Lake and 36 below in International Falls.
Embarrass Postmaster Paul Thesenvitz says his carriers deliver mail by car, so only their arms get cold when they reach out to a mailbox.
He has just one complaint -- the power has gone out so his coffee pot isn't working.

"Many facilities were built decades ago, when technology and health care protocols were far different; getting people the right care, at the right time and in the right place, sometimes requires a new or improved place," he said. "And with the baby boomers aging and becoming sicker, hospitals today have to be ready not just to meet today's demands, but those of the future as well."
He said the Hopkins project is among the largest he's heard about nationwide, but many other hospitals have decided that they need new facilities. Like Hopkins, most use a mix of philanthropy, debt and cash to pay for them.
In addition to making services more marketable to patients and doctors, who have rising expectations, hospitals can cut energy and staff costs with new, efficient buildings.
But some hospital administrators who haven't started construction are putting it off, waiting to see what happens with the court challenge to federal health care reform and with federal and state budgets, which can affect the amount they get paid.
Health care reform, Gianello said, could increase the number of paying customers, compared to the amount of charity care hospitals provide. But federal and state budget cuts could slash payments from programs such as Medicare and Medicaid.
"For some hospitals, that may tip the scale," he said. "It takes two to three years to get something built, so they may be waiting. Though one positive thing right now is interest rates are the lowest they've ever been. If they are going to do it, now is a good time."
Hospital highlights
The new $1.1 billion Johns Hopkins Hospital at 1800 Orleans St. in East Baltimore will include:
•1.6 million square feet of space, with two connected 12-story towers
•560 private patient rooms with sleeper sofas, full bathrooms and Internet access
•33 operating rooms, with imaging capabilities
•Adult and children's emergency rooms that are more than three times the size of existing emergency departments, able to accommodate 110,000 annual visits
•The children's center will be named for Charlotte R. Bloomberg, mother of New York Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, and the adult center will be named for Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, first president of the United Arab Emirates

Elsewhere in New Jersey, Johnny Sack comes home to find Sal Vitro mowing his lawn. And no, it's not because Paulie is still trying to get in good with Johnny Sack. That ended last year when he found out that Johnny was lying about Carmine. Sal's presence is the nice thing Tony said he would have to do for Johnny, and it's also what he said he wanted to talk to Paulie about. And I can't believe I just wrote that much about a scene that's less than ten seconds long.
And finally, we end the night at Junior's Joint, as Tony comes over to make amends. Junior is on the sofa, watching a nature show that appears to be about prairie dogs fucking. If there's supposed to be some subtext there, I'm totally missing it. Tony sits down beside him, and reveals that he talked to Junior's doctor about the strokes. Junior, however, thinks he means Kennedy the cancer doctor, who was last seen getting menaced by Furio and an angry swarm of hat-loving bees. "Just take your medicine," sighs Tony. "It'll make you feel better. Help with your memory." "Believe me," replies Junior. "There's a lot I'd like to forget." "You and me both," Tony agrees. Then he notices a bag from Feech's bakery on the table, and is once again miffed that his new nemesis keeps popping up in unexpected places. Junior chides Tony for ruling against Feech on the landscaping, and justifies his involvement in the issue by saying that he's still the boss of the Soprano family, "despite any arrangements." Tony chooses not to fight that particular battle at the moment, and they both settle back to watch the prairie-dog porn for a while. There is that one issue Tony just can't let go of, however, and that's the varsity athlete stuff. He's willing to agree that Junior probably didn't know what he was saying when kept repeating that, but he's still stuck on one question: "Why's it gotta be something mean? Why can't you repeat something good?" Junior doesn't have an answer for that one, so he tries to turn Tony's attention back to the TV. It doesn't work, though, and Tony finally expresses the raw hurt he's been bottling up since high school. "I mean, don't you love me?" he asks, his voice quavering. But Junior doesn't have an answer for that question either, and as Tony finds himself utterly unloved, and Junior realizes the end is near, they both settle back into the sofa to ponder silently how infarctions and infidelity could have ever brought them to this. Fade to black.
