Advertisers offer new way to opt out of targeted online ads
Published: Friday, July 9, 2010 at 8:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, July 8, 2010 at 4:45 p.m.
Say you're shopping for a new computer. You start your research with a Google search. Then, you read some reviews and check prices on shopping sites. Suddenly, you see ads for computers while reading the news or checking movie show times. Or, how about this one: You're on a national news site. You only see ads for events and businesses in your area.
Situations like these are not mere coincidences. Advertisers are increasingly using targeted advertising to serve online ads. They check Web browser cookies to see what sites you visit. They use your computer's IP address to learn where you live. They may see your Facebook groups. They can get a large amount of data from a variety of sources.
Advertisers aren't bad. They're just trying to sell products. If advertisers didn't exist, many of your favorite sites would fold. At the very least, they would need to charge for access. And by targeting you, advertising campaigns are more effective.
Still, many people are uncomfortable with ad tracking. They don't know what information advertisers have gathered or from where. They may feel that tracking is a privacy invasion.
Advertisers are responding to the complaints. They're testing a new system called Power I. It is designed to make targeted advertising more transparent. Of course, the industry also wants to head off any government regulation.
Maybe you've noticed the Power I icon on targeted ads. It looks like a power button with an "I" in the center of it. Holding your mouse over the button reveals more about the ad. You'll learn why you're being targeted. You'll see the data used to target you.
The Power I button also gives you the option to opt out. But, many people will find the options lacking. On one hand, you only opt out once. That's true even if you use multiple browsers. It is unclear how the system identifies you. It likely uses your IP address to identify your computer.
But, you are only opting out of targeted advertising from a single advertiser. Say you opt out of AT&T's targeted advertising. You'll still see targeted advertising from others like Microsoft and American Express. You have to opt out from each advertiser individually.
And you will continue to see advertisements from the companies after opting out. That's because not all online ads are targeted. Advertisers may buy space on sites directly. Or they may use contextual advertising; ads are served based on a particular page's content. This is similar to traditional advertisements. Most visitors to a page will see the same ad.
Power I is still in the trial stage. Dozens of companies are using the system. But you won't see it on every online ad. If you do see it, go ahead and try it out. And remember, by opting out, you're helping the advertisers, too. They will get a better idea of what works and what viewers find creepy.
If you find targeted advertising troubling, there may be an easier way to opt out. The Network Advertising Initiative will help you opt out of its members' targeted advertising. Visit www.komando.com/news for a link to its opt-out page.
You can opt out of targeted ads from almost 50 advertising networks. NAI's membership changes, so you will want to opt out fairly regularly. Opting out places cookies on your machine. They tell the advertisers not to serve targeted ads. If you delete the cookies, you will need to opt out again. You must opt out in each browser you use; cookies aren't shared between browsers.

Buy your first 4K TV for only £608 thanks to the impressive Vizio P Series
Your first 4K TV will probably be a Vizio, presuming you want to adopt early without forking out thousands of pounds. Vizio has announced at CES that its 50-inch P Series 4K TV will cost just $999 (£608).
For your money you'll get a 50-inch screen with a 3840 x 2160 resolution, Full-Array LED backlighting, 64 Active LED Zones for improved 50 million to 1 contrast, UltraHD upscaling, and 802.11ac Wi-Fi.
You can even adjust the frame rate to suit what you're watching. This includes 24 fps and 48 fps allowing you to watch films as they were shot. And 120 fps, or High Velocity Mode, for extreme gaming sessions.
The P Series will come with Vizio's Internet Apps and be powered by a V6 quad-core GPU and dual-core CPU - combining to make this four times faster than last year's model. This will also help in rendering the upscaled UHD video. And it's ready for Netflix, which is airing 4K this year, as the remote comes with a dedicated Netflix button. And there's a backlit Qwerty remote for easy use of apps.

All that and the thing even looks great with an 8mm bezel and dark metallic finish. The Vizio P Series will be on sale soon with the 50-inch model at $999 (£608), the 70-inch version at $2,600, and 55-inch, 60-inch and 65-inch models priced within that range.

Updated Cubs 2014 Minor League Camp Rosters (3/20)
The Cubs have added a couple of 25-year old "suspects" to Minor League Camp, acquiring 1B Matt Scioscia from the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for 1B-OF Trevor Gretzky, and signing RHP Reinier Roibal (ex-SF).
The 6'3 230 Roibal was a high-profile Cuban defector signed by the Giants in 2010, but he was unable to work his way out of Lo-A ball after three seasons in the Giants organization, and was released at the end of Minor League Camp this time a year ago. He then spent the 2013 season pitching for the Newark Bears in the independent Atlantic League.
The son of Angels manager Mike Scioscia, the right-handed hitting Matt Scioscia was selected by the Angels in the 45th round of the 2011 draft as a college senior out of the University of Notre Dame, where he had been a catcher, first-baseman, and DH. The Angels moved him to 1B full-time in 2013, but like Roibal, the younger Scioscia has been unable to progress, hitting a combined 194/248/224 in 46 games (146 PA) between AZL Angels, Burlington, and Inland Empire in 2013.
I strongly suspect the Cubs will immediately move Scioscia back to catcher, the one position in the Cubs system that lacks quality depth, perhaps hoping that his catching "bloodlines" might awaken. The Cubs are also probably hoping a change of scenery might help the younger Scioscia fulfill his promise, but at age 25 he won't have a lot of time to show what he can do.
21-year old Trevor Gretzky is (of course) the son of hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, and was the Cubs 7th round pick in the 2011 June draft. But through no fault of his own, he was seemingly buried in a Cubs system that is chock full of outfielders with promise. The younger Gretzky never fully recovered from right shoulder surgery (he suffered a torn labrum while playing QB in a football game his senior year in HS) and so he been has been relegated to playing only DH, LF, or 1B in pro ball. (He has what is sometimes called a "rag arm"). However, he doesn't have the HR power you would want out of DH, 1B, or LF, he has just average speed so he doesn't profile as a CF, and he is a below average defender at both 1B and LF. What the younger Gretzky does have is decent eye/hand coordination, a good eye for the strike zone, and a nice opposite-field line-drive stroke at the plate (albeit without any HR power).
2014 CUBS MINOR LEAGUE CAMP ROSTERS (last updated 3-20-2014):
NOTE: ROSTERS AT MINOR LEAGUE CAMP ARE FLUID. Minor League players are often initially assigned to a squad one or even two levels above where they will ultimately be assigned once the regular season starts. Minor League Camp roster assignments are based on several factors, including the player's position as it relates to the specific needs of the organization, and the player's age, amount of professional experience, and previous season's performance (including any time spent at a post-season Instructional League). As players are sent to Minor League Camp from the Major League squad during the course of Spring Training, there are corresponding roster moves made at Minor League Camp as players are either moved down a level or released.

Thanks, Phil.
Thanks, Phil.
1. Doesn't look like any significant new listing of injured pitchers, at least not among the more noteworthy prospects.
2. Did we ever find out what Michael Jensen missed last season for? TJ, or something less substantial? Would be fun if he bounced back well.
3. Phil, you don't list Bruno as non-participating. Is he actually throwing the ball overhand, and able to participate in fielding drills or maybe even exhibition games (defensively) already?
4. Note: I'm not sure there are a lot of very significant pitching prospects in the big-league camp who will go down and trickle-down push minor leaguers down levels. In other words, I don't think pitchers on the Iowa group are going to get dropped and take Tennessee rotation spots, other than possibly Vizcaino, Rivero, or perhaps Rondon. For the most part, I think the Tennessee rotation will primarily be populated by guys already with Tennessee pool.
5. Seems Daytona could be short for rotation on good prospects, and Kane overstocked. I wonder if they have any consideration to actually starting Zastryzy and/or Skulina right out at Daytona, to clear the piggy-back/rotation spots at Kane? Seems unlikely, but Kane looks like it will be crowded with rotation options, and Daytona might look pretty uninteresting rotation-wise.
Phil, one other question:
Phil, one other question: When XST gets rolling, there are usually lots of Latin guys there. Are those guys already at Mesa practicing, and just on the "Boise" roster at this stage? Or are a lot of them still at the DSL to avoid crowding, and once the Cubs and the minor league teams move out, then a bunch of the international kids will move in then?
Thanks for your thoughts,
Thanks for your thoughts, Phil. As you say, there are a 10+ guys already at Kane who could start, so if Skulina and Zastryzny were to go there, that would clutter it even more. So yeah, if those guys did look advanced and mature enough for Daytona, that could really set up a batch of nice rotations everywhere. But Kane could have lots of piggy-backs, I think, and some of those guys to XST or relief.
I'd thought Wells might step up to Tennessee, (with Loosen to relief), but he's young, two seasons back was largely lost to injury, and I think a lot of last year was "getting through healthy" rather than necessarily working on breaking stuff. So no problem with him staying at Daytona. Probably just a guy, not fast enough, no excellent breaking ball, not enough control, and probably not healthy enough either. But his movement is quite good, so that if the control/velocity/breaking ball stepped up, he might become a nice value.
Also glad Jensen seems healthy enough where you think he's rotation track.
You mentioned three new Latin pitchers. Have you seen Luis Hernandez throw? He's listed as 6'5" 210-pounds, a big guy; and he only pitched 9 games or so in DSL. Surprised he's over so quickly; hopefully that means he's got a power arm?
Thanks, I'd wondered about
Thanks, I'd wondered about Jordan Hankins. If he can't catch, his chances as an infielder are probably pretty remote.
So, Phil, you listed Mark Malave as a catcher; does it look like he's exclusively catcher these days? Has he filled out very much physically?
Are there any hitters who look noticeably stronger/more powerful? Obviously physical maturation is central to the scouting/projection game. But not every pitcher who's hoped to mature into 5 more mph does, nor every hitter who's projected to perhaps hit HR's when they mature.
Thanks, Phil, good stuff.
Thanks, Phil, good stuff. Candelario showing increased long-ball both-sides power is very good news. He's had strong splits, and given that he's never going to be average-at-best defensively at any position, serious HR production is essential if he is to become an asset starter.
Interesting that Hanneman showed reasonable power. Don't know what we'll have with him, but a lot easier to make it work if he's got more Michael Barrett power than Theriot/Barney type situation. But encouraging to read something a little encouraging in that regard.
Geiger this could be interesting year. Balanced and improving hitting approach, but it's all about the HR-power for him. If he hits enough HR's without selling out to do so, then all of his offensive numbers will grow and he'll be valuable. He's an under-the-radar guy who could conceivably put up some pretty big numbers in AA at age 22, in which case he could generate more discussion.
Thanks for Malave observations. Interesting that he's back to full-time catcher. Like Geiger and Candelario, seems yet another case where power is the key. Hopefully something will happen so that he starts to translate some of his power potential into actual HR's. He's been so young and new, but thus far his actual results have been no-HR output, mostly singles and walks offensively. His defense isn't going to get him far as a contact hitter. For him to really make it, I assume it will again need to be as an average-at-best defender with enough offense to more than make up for it. With HR's, maybe; no HR's, not likely.

this is one of the worst
this is one of the worst places for a foot bruise.
There is no good place for a foot bruise but as long as he didn't break his calcaneus (heel) it might just be a few days off. Also have to be careful not to develop plantar fascitis (inflamed arch support) or achilles tendonitis. It it's not better in a day or two, they usually get an MRI, which can identify a bone bruise or subtle fracture (assuming the more basic x-rays are negative).
You probably have read since
You probably have read since your comment that Baez says he's had this happen before, and it comes from wearing metal cleats - and that he normally grinds one of them down when he has to wear them. Anyway, it sounds like it was pretty minor. One thing about Baez is it seems like he goes all out in everything he does, from his swing to everything else. It's probably not a question of if, but when he'll get hurt. You can't ask a guy to not go all out, that's even more dangerous I think when it comes to potential injury, but I know that once he gets up to the big club I'm going to brace myself for that injury and hope nothing major happens. Of course, he could be quite the specimen and his body may simply be able to withstand a lot of punishment. I sure hope he learns to take a walk or two down there.

Carlos Rodon slipping...losing a little velocity, control off this spring although last start was much better. Brady Aiken moves to #1 according to Law at least. Jeff Hoffman hasn't been doing too great either. Tyler Kolek(HS) and Tyler Beede in that top 5 mix at the moment as well most likely.
More links.
also this Baez note in the Keith Law chat
Mike (Chicago) Seen anything from Baez to think he'd be successful from the get go this spring or is it just feasting on spring training pitching? He sure hits the ball hard and far.
Klaw (1:56 PM) He's always done that, but I worry that his contact rate overall will be very low if he starts the year in the majors. Huge, huge ability, just not as advanced a hitter as the spring might indicate.

they did a wonderful job with this field...especially compared to pictures of it i'm checking out online...and really especially considering every adaptation to the field (such as the "fake" OF wall) is all sitting above ground (not dug in) since the field groundskeepers refused to let them dig into the ground to install anything because they have to play cricket rather soon. there's huge concrete blocks and steel structures providing a lot of support to walls/tunnels/structures.

hampton had control issues early and valentine had a short visit to the mound where he simply told hampton "throw the goddamn ball over the goddamn plate." and walked away.
the announcers chuckled, apologized, and stated they wouldn't be using that mic anymore.

I want this Australian series
I want this Australian series to end just so 'journalists' will stop making stupid puns. Plus, why the hell is the opening series a week before the rest of the games? Selig is a fart.
people in the past complained
people in the past complained a lot about the international game/regular season scheduling being so close to the "real" season involving a lot of wear/tear/jetlag/fatigue/etc on doing all the travel + PR + actual games...so they're giving the teams a chance to do all the crap while giving them time to come back and recharge.
my biggest issue with the "new" scheduling is the erratic as hell "some teams get strategic breaks in april, some teams get none" scheduling that's been going on for a few years.
this year the cubs (and many other teams) get royally screwed with almost no "strategic" days off when april was traditionally a time where teams could count on a 2-3+ week schedule with strategic days off to accommodate using a 4-man rotation schedule and allowing for april weather makeup games in an unpredictable time of year.
it's also kinda weird to see interleague play in april...whatever...
The other teams could still
The other teams could still play, but let LA and AZ have a few days off after the Australia series. OR, make these games exhibitions like they should have been in the first place.
i don't get "making the games
i don't get "making the games count" either...out of all the things people/fans would care about with visiting mlb baseball, the matter of whether it "counts" or not would probably be low on the list as long as they can persuade teams to treat it with more respect than a spring training game when it comes to lineups/pitching/substitutions.

The Cubs have some tough cuts
The Cubs have some tough cuts to make yet, but looking at the Iowa roster, there are some questions to be answered there.
Pitchers: Hendricks, Jokisch, Beeler, Negrin, Rhee, Loux, Pimentel, Vizcaino, Batista, Zych, Hottovy, Hatley, Gutierrez, Coleman, Espino, McNutt, Mateo, Rivero, and Rosscup.
Catchers: Cutler, Lopez, and Flores.
Infielders: L.Anderson, Alcantara, Villanueva, Watkins, E. Gonzalez, Mota, Baez,and Valaika.
Outfielders: Szczur, Ha, Andreoli, B. Jackson, Meier Wells,and Vitters.
Plus, there are a bunch more cuts coming. It should be interesting.
AZ Phil, do you care to give us your guesses?

the 'crosstown classic' sure has lost it's magic with interleague. the excitement level is barely noticable...maybe it's a bit more hype in the city, itself.

Fuck that.
He choked her.
Her brother tackled him to separate him.
He cooled off by shooting his gun in the garage.
I don't have to like him on the team I follow.
And you are others are free to not give a shit about his personal misgivings if you so choose as well.
Sure, no marks and some inconsistencies in the witness's statements. But firing your gun into garage wall immediately after an argument and punching out your car window is still threatening and out of control behavior. There was certainly enough for MLB to think it warranted a 30-game suspension.
I'd prefer they be flexible with the closing situation depending on matchups. You're not really adding a lefty reliever if you use him strictly as a closer.
Stockpiling young talent isn't only for trading for someone like Chapman though. Even with an elite closer winning the World Series is basically a crap shoot so the key is to get to the playoffs as much as possible and not just mortgage everything on one year. Once you get there an elite bullpen certainly helps but the playoffs can be won by one hitter or starting pitcher getting hot (Murphy, Molina, Baumgardner) and a closer might not be able to stop that.
I'm also not crazy about press convictions. As the police report noted, there were no marks on the lady in question. There's a TMZ link (of course) to her police pictures, as well.
I think the only way this trade goes real bad is if Cubbery intervenes and Chapman is suddenly bad for some reason.
I am right there with you closing in on 60.
I don't care that much about "mortgaging" one player who is not only blocked by two guys, but is not ready to hit the majors for at least a couple years.
There is no reason why this team, this year, can't have a real shot at something NONE of us have experienced.
Further, I don't feel that even if they fall short that they have ruined their farm system.
I have made my opinion clear here, with others, Warren was shit on the Cubs save one spot start.
Trading for Warren, Warren sucking, getting Warren back for Chapman plus 3 prospects, sounds like Revenge of The Yankees on the former Boston executive. Old rivalries never die.
I pray to the heavens above Chapman doesn't suck for some reason, or he'll be booed out of town faster than a Todd Hundley revival meeting.
I'm kind of nostalgic for the Schwarber-for-Miller rumors.
This offseason, after some ridiculous playoff run and Chapman saving every game from here until the end of the postseason striking out 27/9innings, I welcome anyone to quote this thread and call me a dummy: I hate this trade, and my hate is 2 parts Chapman makes this team less likeable and 1 part that's a ridiculous overpay for 30 regular season innings and, at tops, 10 postseason innings. Already hoping they don't extend him.
btw...Thanks AZ Phil. I'm really enjoying your take on this trade.
I'm a bit disappointed on the Warren experience. Essentially they gave Castro away for crickets (OK, well they signed Zobrist with the Castro salary dump). Otherwise one might look at it as Chapman for Castro and our #1 minors prospect (Torres) + McKinney/Crawford. Seems pricey for a 2 month rental. We will see if this price tag is that steep in a relative way based on the remaining deadline deals for relievers.
Yep. One of the great things about this team (in addition to being really good at baseball) was the "likable" factor. Feels a bit different now. Who knows...maybe Chapman will be the king of the dance parties.

Modi promises to resolve issues of Daman & Diu, including fishermen`s
Daman: BJP`s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Saturday promised to address the issues faced by the people of the Union Territory of Daman and Diu, including that of the local fishermen community, if the NDA is voted to power at the Centre.
"There are problems related to fisheries here. Restrictions are being forced in the name of environment. Besides, Pakistan is also harassing our fishermen. Despite a scope of developing this place as a tourist destination, it has not been done. You people need a solution, therefore give me a chance," Modi said during a public gathering at Dilipnagar area here.
Modi was speaking at a campaign rally of Lalu Patel, BJP candidate from Diu-Daman Lok Sabha constituency.
"I have been serving the people of Gujarat for the last 13 years. However, I did not get a chance to serve the people here (UT), as it is not possible to do so from Gujarat. For that I have to go to Delhi (Centre)," the Gujarat Chief Minister said.
He said that people from union territories have a benefit that they are directly ruled by the Union Government. "You are a part of the Central rule. The government in Gujarat is not your government...Now tell me whether you people will give me a chance to serve you," Modi said.
Apart from Daman, Modi will address rallies at Silvassa, Bardoli, Chhota Udepur, Bharuch and Rajkot Lok Sabha seats in the state today. Modi will also address a `3D` rally later in the evening.

Limited data are available on health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) in pediatric stroke survivors. The aim of the present study was to assess HR-QoL by self-assessment and parent/proxy-assessment in children and adolescents who survived a first stroke episode.
We investigated HR-QoL in pediatric stroke survivors (71 preschool children [G1] and 62 school children/adolescents [G2]) and in 169 healthy controls. HR-QoL was assessed in patients and parents/proxies with the generic KINDL-R questionnaire exploring overall well-being and 6 well-being subdimensions (physical, psychological, self-esteem, family-related, friend-related, and school-related). In pediatric stroke survivors the neurological long-term outcome was measured with the standardized Pediatric Stroke Outcome Measure.
Of stroke survivors, 65% exhibited at least 1 neurologic disability. Pediatric stroke survivors reported lower overall well-being compared with healthy controls. In G2 stroke patients, friend-related well-being respectively emotional well-being was significantly reduced compared with healthy controls (73.0 vs 85.0 points; p < 0.001 respectively 80.2 vs 84.5 points; p = 0.049). Parents/proxies of both stroke survivors rated the overall well-being and all subdimensions (except family-related and school-related well-being in G1 and G2 stroke survivors and physical functioning in G2 stroke survivors) lower compared with parents/proxies of healthy children/adolescents. Overall well-being was significantly reduced in children with moderate/severe neurological deficits compared with normal/mildly affected patients (75.5 vs 83.3 points, p = 0.01). Neonatal stroke survivors reported a significantly better neurological long-term outcome compared to childhood stroke survivors (82.0 vs 75.0 points; p = 0.005).
Pediatric stroke survivors compared with healthy controls are strongly affected regarding their overall well-being and older children/adolescents regarding their well-being with peers. Ann Neurol 2011;

The best idea is to get a Sytropin. Let's break Sytropin down bit by bit. We'll scale that bridge when we arrive at it while I can be a bit grouchy at times. You can't slice it with a knife. I felt revitalized. Sytropin is a good friend of mine. It's called setting priorities. You may also remember that in respect to, Sytropin. I imagine they have marked it down since this time.

We have stayed multiple times and it is absolutely the best place to stay in Newport. Michael and Heather make your stay one to remember each and every time. One of our favorite parts of each visit is the breakfast. It is always cooked fresh and absolutely amazing, especially the Crepes!!!
Everything was fine and the staff were very pleasant
We had a nice stay. Our room was clean and satisfactory. We had great french toast for breakfast - the breakfast staff was very friendly and attentive. Breakfast was the best part of our stay!
This was the second stay for us at this BED AND BREAKFAST. My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary last year, we loved it so much we booked it again this year. We love Charron and Jim our hosts, kind and caring people. The quiche that was for breakfast was fantastic. The cottage is fairly close and within walking distance to the beaches and some restaurants. I can't wait to stay here again.
My wife and I stayed 4 nights at the Samuel Durfee House in Newport. We absolutely loved it. Michael and Heather are the perfect hosts. They are filled with local knowledge, great recs, and know much of the history of the building and the town. They are kind and pleasant and extremely helpful in all areas. The home is perfect situated and allows for all kinds of exploring. Much of Newport Habor area is within walking distance. Cliff Walk and all of the mansions are within driving or walking distance (for those that like to walk). The on-site parking is such a special treat. Michael can cook and Heather can bake. It is the best blend for very, very good breakfasts and afternoon snacks. We stayed in the Ida Lewis room and loved it. The balcony was a nice place to sit in the morning with our coffee. The home is very clean and really nice. We would come back here in a heartbeat. Whenever we will return to Newport, we will be looking for availability here first before anywhere else.
The Newport Blues is located on a quiet neighborhood street but is surprising very convenient to everything Newport has to offer. We enjoyed the hospitality of the Innkeeper and the great homemade breakfast each morning with fresh fruit. Room was spacious, clean and in good repair, with A/C. We'll definitely be back!
Honestly, when I found this place on line I didn't know how comfortable my night stay would be. It totally exceeded my expectations. Great service, they were really gentle and kind. Master Room No.2 was really clean and comfy. Breakfast was delicious and all fresh. The table was full of different berries, even the the crockery they have is amazing (vintage). On my next stay in Newport RI I will book a room here for sure. -Melba Natalia
Cooney cottage was conveniently located to explore all of Newport. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated. Ms. Cooney's homemade muffins were a delicious start to fuel our fun filled days in Newport!
We stayed in the Blue Jewel. We were upgraded, the room was beautiful. The staff was friendly & helpful. Breakfast by Monique was delicious & served with a cheerful good morning. Location was perfect. Close to the waterfront, but nice and quiet for sleeping & sitting on the front porch with a glass of wine.
My husband and two friends stayed in a suite at the La Farge Perry House while in Newport for a wedding. The innkeeper was so accommodating, first with our late check-in, and then with my food allergies. She made a delicious breakfast that was gluten-free and vegetarian for me, and the breakfast that the others had was amazing, too! The rooms are super clean, spacious, and so charming. Not a single complaint about this place!
The room was very spacious, nicely appointed, quiet at night, & the bed extremely comfortable. Only a couple complaints: breakfast hours posted state 8:30-10:00 AM. Our "chef" Joyce was just setting up and starting to cook at 8:30 all three days of our stay, not served the hot meal until after 8:45 AM. The food was decent. The only other mildly irritating occurrence was that the B&B policy stated when booking, that kids needed to be above the age of 9 yrs old, two mornings at breakfast there was a little girl of about 3 yrs old there with all of the behaviors of a typical 3 yr old. She was good for a three year old, but irritating none the less. I enjoyed our stay very much and would stay at Newport Blues Inn again and recommend it to others.
Heather and Michael were friendly and helpful hosts. The room was extremely comfortable and clean, and the home-cooked breakfasts were very delicious. We hope to be able to stay here again.
The owners were wonderful. Quiet and gave guests their own space but readily available. Wonderful breakfasts (save lots of room...). A bit far from downtown but a very lovely walk through that area of newport and with parking passes (and lots of spots on the streets in the area) it's very convenient.
Great time all around!
Our room was great. The home was immaculate. The breakfast was amazing and delicious. Our first stay at a bed and breakfast, definitely not our last. Would definitely recommend to anyone to stay.
We recently stayed at the Samuel Durfee House, in Newport, RI as part of our honeymoon travels. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are already looking forward to our next trip there! This was our first trip to Newport and Michael and Heather were the perfect hosts...providing us with tips and suggestions to make the most of our stay there. The breakfasts each morning were absolutely wonderful and were the perfect start to our days. Each afternoon, home baked treats (brownies, banana bread, cookies, etc.) were available for a late day snack. The Inn is located within easy walking distance of many shops and restaurants in the downtown Newport area. The mansions are also within walking distance, although are a bit further so you may wish to drive depending on how far you are comfortable walking. We are looking forward to returning to Newport and once again staying at the Samuel Durfee House.
I came with few expectations since it had been many years since I last stayed at a B & B. The things that I found most attractive were: the quiet sweet service of the hosts, the tranquility that the house and grounds evoked and the creative thoughtfulness of the breakfast. I had informed Bernadette that I ate gluten free and she made an appreciated effort on my behalf (and one other guest). I would most definitely return!
We have stayed on three separate occasions and it has been excellent every time. We have already been thinking of our next stay. Michael and Heather are most gracious, personable and take care of providing that personal approach to each guest. Their location provides a great place to stay and is near anything you would want to see in Newport. Also, the breakfast is to die for, an excellent start to your morning!!!
Staying at the Samuel Durfee House was one of the highlights of our weekend in Newport. The hosts were gracious and hospitable, the room beautiful and spacious for an antique house and the breakfasts excellent. Highly recommended.
This was our first time staying at a b&b. We are normally five star hotel people. We were greeted by a very sweet younger girl who showed us our room. Met another nice lady who had some connection to the owners. Very personable and kind! The room we stayed in was very large. The bed was so comfortable. I was overly impressed at how clean every aspect of that place was. The bathroom was spotless, large, and accommodating. The only downfall was the mild water pressure in the shower. There are a million things to to within a few minutes walk from this location. We had a great time!!
We had a great stay with Michael and Heather! Stayed in the Durfee room, but check out the suites! Next time I will stay in one of them....just beautiful
I had just spent the weekend there with my husband. It was our first time in Newport and our first time trying a bed and breakfast place, so we didn't know what to expect. Please note that she does not accept credit cards, only cash or check. But you can easily secure your reservation by mailing her a deposit as a check a week in advance. Josie exceeded our expectations! As someone who is a stickler for cleanliness, I'm happy to report that her place is very clean. I loved the nice cozy decor throughout the home. She is very friendly and she makes the best breakfast!!! Our first breakfast was brioche french toast with eggs and roasted peaches. The next morning we got a fritatta. I enjoyed being able to chat with her during breakfast and learn more about her life as well as Newport. She is a great host and I'd highly recommend her to anyone wanting to stay at a bed and breakfast in Newport.
Cooney Cottage is located in an ideal area with excellent access to some of the best sites in Newport. There is ample private parking behind the cottage. The location is within walking distance to the beach, Cliff Walk, Bellevue Avenue, the Tennis Hall of Fame, and the fantastic restaurants and shops on the wharf. It was so easy to leave the car and walk all over downtown Newport. The accommodations were beyond our expectations. The cottage is tastefully decorated and the room was clean, spacious and very comfortable. We were able to bring our dog and Rachel provided a cot to sleep an additional person. We still had more than enough room. Rachel provided a lovely breakfast each morning with plenty of coffee and delicious homemade muffins. A different flavor of muffin everyday. Rachel was also able to provide excellent guidance for dog friendly activities and restaurants in the area. We utilized the dog friendly harbor cruise that Rachel recommended as well as a couple of restaurants. On top of everything else, the price of lodging was very, very reasonable. So much so that we will surely be back again.
This little bed and breakfast was really nice. It was clean, the breakfast was great ant the host and her daughter were great. Definitely recommend to others
Carmine & Lisa
My room was very quiet and comfortable, private bath, exceptional staff members. I would definitely stay there again.
Great couple who run the bed and breakfast. They were so sweet and accommodating ! We had a great experience !
Can't wait to go back. Bryan was delightful and incredibly informative.
New England has spectacular accommodations with architecture from the Gilded Age. Vacationers enjoy such hotel alternatives as oceanfront inns, houses, and lodges open to vistas of the blue waters of Newport Bay and Rhode Island Sound. Guests are pampered with marble bathrooms, flat screen televisions, and antique décor. They set the stage for touring a plethora of attractions including mansions, lighthouses, and natural wonders.
The Preservation Society of Newport County has the responsibility to maintain the most palatial mansions in the country. They date back to the 1800s with original artwork and furnishings in place. Each one is located along the southern shoreline of Newport. Visitors are treated to guided tours or can meander at a leisurely pace seven days per week during the May to October season.
What started as a country estate has turned the city of Portsmouth into an attraction. The first topiary garden in the country sits on seven acres with a backdrop of the Narragansett Bay. Tourists are surrounded by 80 tree sculptures and gardens with flowerbeds, herb gardens, and fruit trees. The rose arbor along with 34 other species creates geometric pathways. Delightful animal figures such as a giraffe, ostrich, elephant, teddy bear, and other favorites are showcased.
A variety of historical lighthouses exists throughout the area. Castle Hill is the most famous with its granite structure highlighted by massive boulders. This landmark is not open to the public, although it still guides vessels. Jamestown is home to 64-foot Beavertail Lighthouse, which sits on the southern tip of Beavertail State Park. From this vantage point, the next two stops on the tour can be seen. A ferry ride is required to reach Rose Island Lighthouse, while Point Judith Lighthouse is a 25-mile drive to Narragansett.
Spring, summer, and fall are glorious seasons with diverse foliage dressing this destination. Even summers in Newport don''t get too hot, with temperatures averaging only in the upper-70s in the months of July and August. Temperatures are milder than most New England getaways due to the water's proximity. Expect mild to cool evenings with ocean breezes. Sweaters should be considered after sunset.

My daughter is dyslexic and all the rules other people learn by absorption have to be actively taught to her. I never realized how awful our spelling/reading is to learn until she started school.

It isn't appropriate for liberals to accuse all of the President's critics of racism. However, the "birther" accusations that persisted for a ridiculously long time sure looked like they were due to racism. Enough conservatives bought into the "birther" conspiracy theory to make liberals think conservatives hated Obama because of racism. Trump, by the way, still appears to hold birther convictions (see recent appearance on CNN).
The food pyramid would have had us eating 20 total servings of food per day. The servings have to be pretty small when you break it up that way.
I just finished a privacy training seminar. We were informed that even such innocuous information as lists of favorite movies had successfully been used to match up different "big data" sets on the web. It's shocking, really. I think I'll go back to assuming that if something is in electronic form, it is now public information. I think you're right about this one, though. There should be nothing personally identifiable in what Cathy was being asked to enter.
"Follow your passion." – A lot of people find that advice doesn't serve them well. Some have difficulty finding a passion, some have trouble making an income from it, and some find it is no longer fun when they HAVE to do it every day. I think it's better to make your passion part of your life than to make it your life's work.
How do income taxes relate to the climate in NH? Anyone?

How do two depressed, stressed people have a sustainable relationship?
My partner and I both struggle with mental illness in different ways. We have been dating for a year and a half and do pretty well together but sometimes we aren't able to be there for each other or hold back out of fear of burdening the other. How do you practice self care and be a good partner in this kind of an arrangement? How do you confront a partner about habits and actions that might result from their depression, while being cognizant that they are struggling? What's a reasonable expectation for emotional support in a relationship? [more inside]
Mirena: Am I crazy or is this IUD really giving me the blues?

Should I change therapists? Do you know a good one in Portland, OR?
Is therapy burnout a thing? I think I has it, but I don't know if the problem is me (uncomfortable, withholding, sometimes worried that a lifetime of therapy has made me immune to it) or my therapist (lovely but non-challenging; it feels like we're treading water.) I'd like to talk to someone super-smart who can shake up my previous notion of sit-and-talk-and-nothing-changes therapy. Can you recommend a counselor in the Portland area (or, alternately, tell me if I'm approaching this the wrong way)? Much snowflake below. [more inside]
Last night my girlfriend told me that she has no sex drive
I'm 24 and she's 20, last night she told me she doesn't enjoy sex at all and doesn't see the point. She said she likes how people look and likes how I like but doesn't feel desire towards them. I've tried to ask her more about it, like when it started, but she said she genuinely didn't know, it's been causing her a lot of stress and upset and she was afraid to tell me. [more inside]
What self help workbooks would you recommend for me?
I am looking for a book that will help me work through issues with intimacy and being emotionally distant, anxiety surrounding myself and my life, self esteem issues, getting in touch with my emotions, and just dealing with a lot of latent frustration. Overall, a book on tools to develop emotional maturity is what I need. If anyone knows of a workbook with exercises that would be best since they tend to keep my attention, but if not a regular self help book would be awesome. [more inside]
Why is depression so seductive?
When I feel depression creeping on, there's almost always this voice in my head that tries to convince me not to do the things that I know will make me feel good (like go out with friends or exercise). Except that the voice doesn't feel at all external - it feels like me all the way down. Except that it wants me to feel worse, even when I know there are things that will make me feel better. Why is this? Is there a name for this experience? [more inside]

Blowback after expressing concerns of co-worker's suicide risk
A friend from work (Rachel) disclosed to one of her close friends (Monica) that someone on her team (Phoebe) had expressed suicidal ideation that was becoming seriously concerning. Monica works at another location, so Rachel talked with Monica in order to get advice on how to report her concern while remaining anonymous, avoiding blowback, and keeping the trust of her team-mate. Instead, Monica immediately reported her concern to the regional manger, Phoebe was immediately suspended and told Rachel reported her. Blowback has ensued.

My question is depression-related, but I am *NOT* looking for advice about getting out of it (like meds/therapy/exercise).

Bipolar Triggers - Person to Person
I've been diagnosed bipolar for around 15 years now. I've been relatively stable on medication for the last 5 or so years, I deal with some depressive episodes but I haven't gone into a hypo-manic or mixed state in quite a while, but upon visiting a college friend dealing with Bipolar/Schizoaffective recently I found myself losing my mind in a mix of hypomanic glory and mixed state despair. Do you trigger off of other people? More details past the break. [more inside]

Help me find a therapist in NYC before I cry myself into oblivion.
I need to see a therapist but I have NO idea how to find one. I live in Brooklyn and would go anywhere in Queens/Brooklyn/Manhattan (but mid/down town and northeast Brooklyn would be best.) I would prefer to see a woman, maybe someone who specializes in emotionally abusive relationships. I have Oxford insurance but I dont know if that even covers therapy. I could pay up to $100 a session out of pocket, I guess. I need to see someone as soon as possible. [more inside]
What is like MetaFilter, but not brutally depressing?
MetaFilter is one of my main inputs. I get a lot of news and thinking about the world here. The problem is that it can make me feel terrible about everything, which is already kind of my baseline. Friends and family often express concern when I have been reading MeFi a lot. I am curious what sites you read that have similar properties, but are not as heavy and challenging, so that I can balance my consumption of MetaFilter and MetaFilter-like things. [more inside]

The Octagon's third show on FOX takes place May 5th inside IZOD Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey. A five-round affair between Nate Diaz (Pictured) and Jim Miller headlines the festivities. As of today, eight bouts have been confirmed for the roster. According to UFC president Dana White, the company's third foray on FOX may offer four live primetime fights. The UFC's premiere on the network showcased only one live scrap, while their follow-up featured three live contests.

text: Sooo many books I read all give advice about how to keep your LO from falling asleep at the boob. My DD rarely falls asleep on the boob (like maybe once over a 24 hour period), there is no advice for that one. Most of the time it is not a problem. During the day I can rock her to sleep, engage her in her awake time, or put her in a sling and that usually does the trick to get her to sleep. BUT at night it is not so fun. Our feeding times (or rather her awake times) are lasting anywhere from 1 1/2 hours to 3 hours. She is doing anywhere from 2-4 hour sleeping stretches, but still the nights are hard.
