text: Boarding Schools – Military Schools For Troubled Teenagers Boarding Schools - Military Schools Discipline   There are signs that the military ethos can accomplish things not easily achieved otherwise. Military curricula are even taking hold in some public schools. In Detroit, the Charles Rogers Academy, named for a black army general, offers much the same program as a military prep school. Students of each year have different ranks, discipline is tight, and standards are high. About half the seniors attend college--an extremely impressive rate for an inner-city school.   By shifting their focus from training future soldiers to preparing civic leaders, military boarding schools have made a comeback -- although their ranks have thinned since WWII. Of course, military boarding schools can seem more like another planet to the average teen. At Massanutten, a military boarding school, reveille is at 6 o'clock every weekday morning. Cadets are required to attend formation 45 minutes later dressed in full uniform, complete with polished boots. There, members of Alpha Company -- that's all the girls -- are scrutinized for signs of excessive grooming. Sparkle nail polish and heavy makeup are banned. Hair must be tied neatly into military buns or cut above the collar. Cadets are called to formation before every meal and almost every new activity in their meticulously scheduled day. Simple pleasures -- watching videos and going into town on Friday nights -- must be earned. Academic achievement and good behavior within the Massanutten corps are rewarded with rank, and with rank comes privileges. Because a cadet's success relies on teamwork, peer pressure at military boarding schools is considered a positive influence. Cadets police each other by reporting, or "sticking," rule breakers. The lowliest private can stick the top cadet. Administrators dole out hours of detail, or manual labor, based on the seriousness of the crime. A cadet's first unexcused class absence earns four detail hours; a Walkman or stereo will be confiscated the second time he or she is caught listening during evening study hall; a third transgression for littering warrants 12 hours of work. Massanutten, like many other military boarding schools, does not tolerate drug use, fighting, general misbehaving or sexual activity. A definition of the latter violation is included in the lengthy regulation book to avoid any misunderstandings: "Cadets will not have sexual relations on campus or on any school-sponsored trip or activity, including while on town pass. Sexual acts include any form of intercourse, oral or digital activity." Military schools are very good at helping students that are already behaving appropriately in their academics, leadership, discipline and teamwork. However, military schools are not properly designed to help those troubled teens that are defiant, diagnosed or struggle with ADHD, Depression, or other disorders. There are more specifically designed alternatives (specialty boarding schools) that encompass many of the same philosophies of teamwork, discipline, academics, etc. Specialty boarding schools are designed to deal much more effectively with this type of troubled teens.

I need an free vpn client for mac os x leopard that supports PPTP

This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave these specific reasons:
OS X has a built in PPTP client. http://www.bol.ucla.edu/services/vpn/pptp/docs/macosx.html#leopardpp
I use Shimo, which is really simplifies the VPN management process. Macworld did a pretty good write up on the application in Aug of '07, but much of the article is still relevent: http://www.macworld.com/article/59355/2007/08/shimo.html It does nag you asking you to license it, but the application is fully featured even if you don't license it and you can easily minimize the nag window.
Not Free, but only $9 - Viscosity VPN www.viscosityvpn.com Supports only 10.5 or later.
There is an interesting alternative to the builtin: JollyFastVNC

Fuelled by the highest rate of unemployment in 13 years, the
queues snaking along the pavements outside the Auckland City
Mission have nothing festive about them.
"I keep saying every year it's unprecedented ... but I'm
almost beyond words when I look out there," said missioner
Diane Robertson.
"This is nothing to celebrate."
More than 100 people were lined up on Hobson St and round a
corner into a neighbouring lot yesterday, some since 5am, to
receive charity - Christmas food parcels and donated gifts
for children.
The majority did not want to appear in the newspaper. "Maybe
if I had won something or it was something lucky," a woman
Ms Robertson said the mission's clients were struggling with
unemployment and entitlement cuts. "They're losing options."
And the continuing recession was adding people to the queue
as those on low incomes fell into the same poverty cycle as
"As an agency we really try to get people off benefits and
employed - make life better than it's been," Ms Robertson
said. "But right now we're just alleviating poverty, because
there's no place to go."
Ms Robertson said the mission expected to help about 2000
people this Christmas with food parcels, a new record.
The Quarterly Labour Force Survey in September found 175,000
unemployed people in New Zealand, up 13,000 in three months -
and 12.4 per cent higher than last year. At 7.3 per cent, the
unemployment rate was at a 13-year high. And the number of
people employed dropped by 8000 for the quarter.
Meanwhile, welfare reforms have seen the introduction of
penalties for failing to accept work. Work and Income
officers were at the mission to identify those who needed
help. Benefits could be paid on the spot to be available
before Christmas.
A woman in the queue, who did not want to be named or
photographed, said she had left her Papakura home at 4.30am
to get some gifts for her children. Her sister had driven her
into the city. She said this year had been particularly
"It's been hard. Really hard."
She was thankful for a bit of help to put on some kind of
Christmas for her family, she said.
Another woman said it was her first time at the mission after
hearing about it through a friend. Rising prices at the
supermarket had been crushing, she said.
But others were at least able to talk now of Christmas plans
with family, gathering siblings together and hopefully
heading to the beach if the sun turned out.
The growing deprivation is part of a longer-term trend as
well. Nationally, Work and Income gave out 144,000 food
grants in the first full year they were recorded, 1992-93,
but last year this had increased to 554,000, including
150,000 in Auckland.

You just had that feeling roughly an hour into Sunday's NFL action.
There were eight games that kicked off at 1 p.m. Eastern Time and in the first quarter of those contests, the 16 teams combined for 113 points.
And when it was all said and done, scoring points was not an issue around the league, with the exception of a small handful of teams.
So here we are once again with this week's grades. Please remember that they are based on a number of factors, not just wins, losses and numbers. They are marks for this week's performance and not a team's overall play this season.
While there were plenty of bright spots, you can expect to see your share of clubs that will be banging erasers after school is out.

Patients who tested positive for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae took an average of 387 days following hospital discharge to be clear of the organism, according to a study.
The study was conducted in the Shaare Zedek Medical Center, a 700-bed university-affiliated general hospital in Jerusalem. The research team analyzed follow-up cultures from 97 CRE-positive patients who had been discharged from the medical center between January 2009 and December 2010.
The average time until cultures became negative was 387 days, the researchers report in the March issue of the American Journal of Infection Control, the official publication of the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology.
The proportion of patients who remained culture-positive, meaning they could potentially become reinfected or transmit the germ to others, was 78% at three months, 65% at six months, 51% at nine months and 39% at one year.
Risk factors for extended carriage included the number of hospitalization days, whether and how often the patient was re-hospitalized and whether the patient had an active infection as opposed to colonization without signs of active disease.
The study is described as one of the first to determine length of CRE duration after hospital discharge, and provides vital insight into treating formerly CRE-positive patients upon readmission to limit the spread of this virulent and often deadly pathogen.
"Patients with multiple hospitalizations or those who were diagnosed with clinical CRE disease should be assumed to have a more extended duration of CRE coverage and should therefore be admitted under conditions of isolation and cohorting until proven to be CRE-negative," the authors wrote. "These measures will reduce the hospitalization of CRE-positive patients among the general patient population, potentially preventing the spread of CRE."
CRE are extremely difficult-to-treat, multidrug-resistant organisms that are emerging in the United States. A CRE strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae recently spread through the National Institutes of Health hospital outside Washington, D.C., killing six people. Because of increased reports of these multidrug-resistant germs, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently alerted clinicians about the need for additional prevention steps to prevent transmission (www.cdc.gov/hai/organisms/cre/cre-clinicians.html).

Lessons for Utah from Iowa: Fight for control of education
Moreover, the NCLB waivers are emanating from the executive branch, creating a situation in which the White House is effectively re-writing the law without congressional approval.
One of the more frustrating aspects of the NCLB waiver issue is the fact that an alternative to NCLB that provides genuine flexibility for states exists, and doesn't carry with it the strings associated with the waivers. For years now, conservatives in Congress have championed the Academic Partnerships Lead Us To Success Act, or A-PLUS, which would allow states to completely opt-out of NCLB.
States that choose to opt-out would be empowered to use their share of federal funding for any lawful education purpose under state law. And if a state can demonstrate over a five year period that it is able to improve student outcomes, the state can continue to enjoy that flexibility.
It's a far better approach than further concentrating power in the halls of the Department of Education, which is the outcome we can expect if the White House waivers continue.
Moreover, it's an approach to reducing the federal role and providing relief to states that is a product of Congress, as it should be.
Rep. Bishop argues that further centralizing education and nationalizing standards isn't going to solve our education woes. "The only thing we haven't tried to do," Bishop notes, "is allow schools to be free. Go back to what has always worked: the free market. When people have freedom, they make better choices."
While Utah applied for, and secured, a waiver from NCLB, it's not too late to demand genuine relief from federal overreach. And it's certainly not too late to back out of the Common Core national standards boondoggle, and regain control of local school policy.

Very educational, my 4 year old now blurts out facts about animals she learned by playing with her "cards". Plus the size and format are nice for flipping through the cards and carrying them around.
The animals and sea creatures shown are very interesting and have a lot of fun facts. Keeps my 5 year old twins engaged and they are learning new things as well.
This is product not only has great pictures, but also animal sounds. Tells where the animals live. It also gives fun facts.
It was ordered for Christmas by a 4 year old. I won't know until after Christmas if it was a gift worth while. I noticed that the graphics were colorful. It's an educational toy, so that's a plus for me when giving a gift to a child. The Leapster products are great educational toys for kids. This isn't the first time I purchased a Leapster product. All the prior purchases were a success so I'm sure this will be too.
MY daughter just turned 5 and absolutely loves this! The cards are fixed together so that there is no way to lose them, unlike my other animal learning cards! She enjoys learning fun facts about various animals and is getting into learning the vocabulary words, which I randomly quiz her on.
My daughter reported that my 4 year old grand daughter hasn't put the activity cards down since she got them. Has been playing with them for hours!
My daughter loves her Tag Reading System and learning about different types of animals and birds. These are definitely a hit with young learners!
This is great for the Tag reader. Children can learn all about all kind of animals. It is made well and great for learning.
Great product and quick shipping!

Nicole Richie, swaying her hips to ABBA's "Dancing Queen" at L.A. hot spot Hyde. "The girl can definitely dance," an onlooker tells us. Also making the scene with Richie at the celeb-studded club: Lindsay Lohan, who was "snapping pictures of her friends," and Ashlee Simpson, who found inspiration in Madonna's "Like a Prayer." "She was shaking her head from side to side," says the reveler.
Paris Hilton, "enjoying the fun under the moonlight" with Nicole Richie and Travis Barker at Hollywood club Les Deux. "Travis took turns chatting with his buddies and Paris," an onlooker tells us. "They weren't affectionate, but they did look happy together."
Colin Farrell, catching an 8 p.m. showing of Babel at ArcLight Cinemas in Hollywood. The actor and a friend were "munching on milk duds," says a moviegoer.
Sienna Miller, taking pictures with pals at New York City club Butter. The actress arrived a bit before midnight sporting a tilted black fedora, black coat, miniskirt and mid-calf boots, and spent the night sipping water. Later, she was joined in the booth by a dark-haired male companion (who seemed to be just a friend).
Billy Bob Thornton, enjoying some Tex-Mex food at Austin's Guero's Taco Bar. The actor is such a fixture at the restaurant when he's in town that he brings in a wheel of his own non-dairy cheese for the cook to use in his food. "He seemed totally nice," a fellow diner told us. "He just blended in with the rest of the people."

Talk:Elections in the Netherlands
|This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Elections in the Netherlands article.
This is not a forum for general discussion of the article's subject.
Article policies
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
I just wrote 'assigning people to seats' (based on 'Hoe wij kiezen' by Maurice de Hond). My father used to say that a vote for anyone but the 'lijsttrekker' is a lost vote, but this doesn't seem to support that. Is this a myth and what is it based on then? DirkvdM 12:16, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
- Het is een mythe. Ik denk dat de achtergrond is dat het vrijwel onmogelijk was om met voorkeurstemmen in de kamer te komen. Electionworld 20:24, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
New table[edit]
I want start a new table for the election results overview because several parties have disappeared and appeared and changed in size. I'm not sure about the order, though. It should reflect the expected future size of parties but not be too different form the previous tables, so I suggest keeping the order of the biggest parties. The order I suggest is PvdA - VVD - CDA - SP - GroenLinks - PvdD - ChristenUnie - SGP - PvdV - EenNL. Another option would be to give a better grouping of similar parties bij changing the first parties to CDA - VVD - PvdA, placing the latter alongside the other left wing parties. DirkvdM 20:46, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Election statistics for non-Nederlanderphones[edit]
Could someone advise me whether the figures viewabkle here are for this election, and whether they are complete / final? If they are not for this election, could someone direct me to the correct page within that website? Thanks. Adam 14:11, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
- Probably the contents of that site are different now than two years ago, but currently you can find the final parliament election results there: click on 'Tweede Kamer' in the left-hand column, select the year under 'jaartal', and click the 'Toon resultaten' button. I assume the numbers are complete/final, since they're published by the Kiesraad, the official elections body. Probably when there are new elections, and it's just after they were held, they might be tentative. The last elections were on 22 November 2006, and the final results were published on the 27th. Mtcv (talk) 14:41, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
closed list, right?[edit]
is the system one of closed list, or open list proportionality?Aryah (talk) 16:18, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
- It's open-list proportionality, as the voter has some choice in who gets elected: if a candidate receives 25% of the seat threshold, s/he is automatically elected, even if the candidate's place on the list is too low to be elected based on the number of seats that the party gets. See also here. Mtcv (talk) 18:53, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Flow of participants through the randomized trial. book indicates the book-only intervention group, which received Clifford's Bedtime, a colorful board book; talk, the counseling-only intervention group, which received a 1-minute scripted talk about reading to infants; and both, intervention group that received the book and the counseling.

Next up in ESPN.com's Power Rankings series were the best offensive players who aren't quarterbacks.
I was surprised to see only three offensive linemen appear on the ballots of our eight panelists: Miami Dolphins left tackle Jake Long, Cleveland Browns left tackle Joe Thomas and New York Jets center Nick Mangold.
Only four voters, including me, mentioned more than one lineman. AFC South blogger Paul Kuharsky and NFC South blogger Pat Yaskinkas must have been assembling fantasy teams because they didn't name a single grunt.
My ballot:
Adrian Peterson, Vikings running back
Larry Fitzgerald, Cardinals receiver
Andre Johnson, Texas receiver
Chris Johnson, Titans running back
Calvin Johnson, Lions receiver
Jake Long, Dolphins left tackle
Antonio Gates, Chargers tight end
Nick Mangold, Jets center
Roddy White, Falcons receiver
Jason Witten, Cowboys tight end
Nobody can argue against how crucial offensive linemen are to a team's success. And since we removed quarterbacks from the equation, they make even more sense to appear on this list. If a team has an established quarterback, then the next thing to do is protect him.
Without offensive linemen, there's not enough time for the star receivers to get open or lanes for running backs to bolt through.
The importance of left tackles was underscored when the Dolphins selected Long first overall in 2008. Long has lived up to the expectations at a critical position by making the Pro Bowl each of this three seasons. He was voted All-Pro last year.
Mangold is the best center in the game. While centers aren't necessarily viewed as prominent enough to draft early, Mangold's dominance is indisputable. He has been an All-Pro the past two seasons and a Pro Bowler three straight. That's why he made my list.

Along with the Power BI related announcements at the Worldwide Partner Conference on July 8 2013, we are pleased to announce that Microsoft Power Query for Excel (previously known as codename "Data Explorer") has reached General Availability and is now available for download. Please follow the Power BI blog for future updates and how-to articles on Power Query. We also announced the upcoming preview of Power BI for Office 365, to learn more visit us at office.com/powerbi
Congratulations! What an amazing effort!
Where is the documentation on how to use Power Query -> From Other Sources -> From Hadoop File?
A sample would be great here.
(I have written up the procedure for Importing results from HDInsight.)
Cheers, Brad Severtson
Hi Brad,
Documentation page for how to connect to HDFS can be found here: office.microsoft.com/…/connect-to-a-hadoop-distributed-file-system-hdfs-HA104019825.aspx
There isn't much described in this page, as the behavior is fairly similar to the one for HDInsight covered in this blog post: blogs.msdn.com/…/mashups-and-visualizations-over-big-data-and-azure-hdinsight-using-data-explorer.aspx
Only prerequisite is that your HDFS instance has to support the Web HDFS protocol.
Looking forward to having yet another powerful addition to one of the greatest software tools in the world.
Can you extract data from Analysis Services using power query? Any documentation would be helpful.
What an amazing product! Powerful data integration tool; yet accessible to all, not just the elite few who understand the Kimbal v.s. Inmon debate. This is a game changer folks! /*analytics_to_the_masses*/
gettiing error: need help to connect.
[DataSource.Error] Facebook: Failed to get the graph from 'graph.facebook.com/…/activities because of a parameter error. This can happen when trying to access data about friends of friends that have not added the Microsoft Power Query Facebook App.
can the power query be installed on the excel 32 bit student version?

Hi I'd like to know if i can remove avatars appearing in my post archives. The avatars are for "anonymous" and don't have links and there are no posts by users in the Alkivia page.
I'd rather not have avatars in any other area of the website than the profile pages. I have combed the settings but they will not budge!
Is this a bug?
PS. Sorry if you've seen this already but the WordPress fora seem to have a Franz Kafka influence!

I can't exactly remember what the menu items were called (because I can't boot into my computer), but I'll try my best.
Earlier I tried using EasyBCD with Windows 8 on a UEFI Lenovo IdeaPad Z580 laptop to add a boot loader option for Linux Mint. It didn't boot into Mint, and so booted back into Windows and, in EasyBCD set the MBR with the first option checked (Windows Vista/7 bootloader) clicked "Write MBR". I was still unable to boot into Mint, and I noticed that I could no longer access the BIOS/UEFI settings.
If I click the "Novo" button while the laptop is off I boot to a "Novo Button Menu":
│ Novo Button Menu │
│ Normal Startup │
│ BIOS Setup │
│ Boot Menu │
│ System Recovery │
The first three items would all just boot into Windows, I didn't try the fourth (I'll get onto System Recovery later).
In the Windows 8 boot menu I opened command prompt and ran
bootrec.exe /fixmbr to try restore the normal Windows bootloader and the BIOS options, but this did not work.
Then booted back into Windows again and opened EasyBCD. I went to "BCD Backup/Repair", selected "Reset BCD configuration" then clicked "Perform Action". The program said I needed to create at least one bootloader item, so I created a "Windows" one and set the drive to "C:", saved and rebooted. Whenever I rebooted, I was faced with a similar screen to when I tried to boot Mint with the Windows bootloader:
Windows failed to start.
File: \BCD
Status: 0x0000098
Info: the Boot Configuration Data file doesn't contain valid information for an operating system.
now the first three Novo menu items do this, too. The last item opens Lenovo's "OneKey Recovery", which isn't really that useful since it requires a previous backup or a complete restore to a factory state.
How can I boot back into Windows now? I don't have a Windows 8 recovery disc. Is it too later to create one? My laptop has the Windows 8 serial built in (not printed on case).

Ngala Tented Camp Tented Camp
Ngala Tented Camp is a luxurious tented safari camp, with just six spacious tents featuring wooden decks. The chic and modern camp fuses effortlessly with the surrounding bush. Ngala is situated inside the Timbavati Game Reserve, sharing unfenced borders with the Kruger National Park, offering superb game viewing opportunities.
* Ngala Tented Camp Highlights
- ∞Exclusive luxury tented camp
- ∞Fresh and contemporary decor
- ∞Outside shower and oversized bath tub
- ∞Location next to a waterhole provides close-up viewing opportunities
- ∞Game drives and bush walks led by expert rangers and Shangaan trackers
- ∞Exquisite Pan-African cuisine

More about this accommodation
Ngala was the first private safari reserve to be incorporated in the world-famous Kruger National Park - the largest wildlife sanctuary in South Africa. Situated only 3 kilometres from the Kruger's Orpen Gate, Ngala Tented Camp is a luxurious satellite camp of Ngala Private Game Reserve, offering six deluxe tents on raised platforms with secluded wooden decks.
Set on the banks of the great seasonal Timbavati River, Ngala Tented Camp was built with a light footprint, to minimise impact on the environment.
The spacious tents have a fresh and contemporary feel, huge beds, oversized bath and an invigorating outdoor shower. Each tent is equipped with a quite overhead fan to combat the heat, and on winter nights you can snuggle up in a warm electric blanket. All year round, giant shady trees form a cool canopy over this tranquil camp.
The camp's chic and modern public areas overlook the Timbavati riverbed, which draws a lot of wild life to its tree-lined banks. The waterhole features an intimate hide, which affords close-up views of the animals and also provides fantastic photo opportunities.
Ngala offers moonlit bush dinners and bush sundowners. Bush banquets are served in a clearing in the bush under the starry sky.

I am not a huge tea fan...but I love this fruity tea. Made exactly as written and wouldn't change a thing. It was really quick and easy to make with terrific results. I love that you can taste the blueberries, lemon and the tea. Thanks for sharing a recipe that I will enjoy again.
So it's hot out there. Help is on its way. I'm bringing over some blueberry-lemon iced tea.
I'm not that fond of fruited iced tea, but this changed my mind! A little bit of work, but definitely worth it! This will go into my iced tea rotation at the very top. Thnx for posting FloridaGrl. Made for Comfort Cafe Summer 2009.
Delicious tea! I did make a few adjustments. I only used 2 family tea bags, and a little less sugar. Loved the blueberry taste! Thank you Ellie!

Be a healthy Gippslander and play croquet
Are you keen to get active but don't know if you're physically fit enough. Why not play croquet? ABC Gippsland learns it's not just a sport for 'old people.' More Gippslanders die from complications of obesity, heart problems and stroke that any other region - ABC Gippsland wants to help change that around - by helping Gippslanders make some small changes to their lifestyle.

"It's an excellent way of having exercise without stretching the body too far and [it's good for] socialising too," says Philip Cerici, secretary of the Sale Croquet Club.
It's a lovely day when ABC Gippsland visits the Sale Croquet Club, which celebrated its 100th year of existence a few years ago.
The club enters pennant teams in the Geelong Croquet Association and Golf Croquet competions each season and hosts social games weekly.
Club members range in abilities, Philip is keen to point out.
"This game is excellent for people who have never played any other sport because they can pick it up an do well in a relatively short time."
Jocelyn Hunter had never played sport before picking up the croquet mallet a few years ago.
"It's a game for everyone, not just 'old people,' for heaven's sake," she says.
She says while the game is not as strenuous as other sports, such as tennis, it does keep you fit and active.
"You do a fair bit of walking, your legs have got to be reasonable, it is slow moving, but you're on your feet the whole time."
Club president Russell Stevens, says the benefits of croquet are numerous.
"It's intellectually challenging. I play tennis, but I took croquet up after my wife did. She had never played sport before and wanted something to keep her active. I really recommend it - it's a great social game, for anyone. A healthy mind is a healthy body."

Any decent media should work, go to a computer store pick up a couple different types and try them out, it should only cost a few dollars.

without going broke buying evey type of DVD
That is a bit dramatic. DVD discs are very cheap now. buy one of each type as said. don't bother with real cheap crap though. Ritek G04 G05 are good.
Truth is nobody can say which are best for your box as every drive can behave differently. what works in one philips may not work in another identical drive

SUNSATIONAL-- The perfect name for this new home. This home could just as well be called The House for Family Fun. No detail has been left unturned for your group. The pictures do not begin to do the house justice. Sunsational has all the bells and whistles you expect from a new home: stainless steel appliances, ice maker in the refrigerator door, granite counter tops in the kitchen and baths, ceramic tile floors, 4 8' French doors leading to decks on two levels and three sides of the house, over sized windows (33 of them!), double vanities in each of the 4 bathrooms, and of course a private pool. Sunsational is in the wonderful subdivision of Seagrass on fantastic Cape San Blas. The following is just a partial list of amenities. Five LCD TV's: one 32' in each of 3 bedrooms, one 42' in the bedroom/game room and a 52' in the living room. The open floor plan on the second level has a huge kitchen, living room with two full sofa's, and a gathering height dining room table that seats 12! The kitchen has every small appliance that you can think of. In addition to the usual toaster, blender, drip coffee pot, there is also a coffee grinder, bread maker, mix master, crock pot, smoothie machine, electric frying pan, and even a hot air popcorn machine. The Wolfgang Puck stainless steel pots and pans are a joy to cook with, and there are wonderful serving pieces for your fantastic creations. Hand utensils are more than complete: garlic press, baster, every size and shape of knife, juicer, vegetable brush, meat tenderizer, tea and herb ball, cheese grater, and wire whisks are just a few of the items in addition to all the usual you would expect. Dinner service for 16 is matching Correlle (even the glasses match), and the silver is Oneida. Not to be forgotten is the well stocked cabinet of glasses for your cocktail hour.
About that bedroom/game room. On the ground level with its own door to the pool area is a room so large that it has a sitting area which includes a queen sofa sleeper, and a love seat, a king bed, a game table with 6 chairs and two pieces of exercise equipment. This area along with the wonderful selection of games, puzzles, books and VHS tapes that are in the adjoining walk in closet is the reason this room is sure to be the center of your fun. And for this room and the pool convenience is a full bath with its own door to the pool area!
The pool area is just one more wonderful feature of this house. Enclosed with privacy fence, the area has just had a beautiful patio of pavers put in. A patio table for 6 with umbrella, 6 chaise lounge chairs and propane grill ensures a great time.
The other 3 bedrooms will hardly be used with so much to do, but are also wonderful rooms. On the second level is the queen room, furnished with traditional Florida wicker. There is a full bath on this level, as well. On the top level is the Master Bedroom. It is so big that the king bed looks lost. We joke that the shower in the attached master bath could seat 4 for dinner, and there is also a garden tub. Also on the top level is the bunk room with Safari theme. Fun for kids, teens, or even adults. There are two sets of bunks with twin on top, and full on the bottom, which allows for sleeping 6.
In addition there is high speed wireless internet, free long distance (to U.S. and Canada), stereo system, home theater system, DVD's, VCR, cable TV, ironing board and iron, washer and dryer, parking for 6 cars, newly landscaped, his and hers bikes (maybe kids bikes will be added), and on and on.
This house is just a short walk to the community pool or the pure white beach of the Cape. Now add the Sun and you truly have SUNSATIONAL.
Keywords: beach house, private pool, pet friendly, gulf view, free long distance
The Cape beaches are some of the most beautiful we have ever seen and the fact that this entire area is dog friendly really sold us on the location. Our dogs love their daily walks on the beach. We love the pure white sand that we can walks for miles, the clean water for swimming fun, and the great bike path just outside our door. You can rent kayaks (even a clear bottom one), canoes, and even a golf cart and never leave the cape. OR you can rest and relax and do absolutely nothing. Most of all we like the peace and quiet of this low density community where no building can be higher than 4 floors. The area is great fun and the seafood is not to be beat.
SUNSATIONAL was furnished as if we were going to live here year-round (wish we could), with the greatest attention to detail. We love the kitchen, the decks, and all the space that this hugh house has. Even whem we had a house full of guests, no one was crowded with all the big rooms. And all the TV's, games, books, movies for the occasional rainy day really come in handy. We think the very best part of SUNSATIONAL is the expanded deck area we put in around the pool. With 6 chaise lounges, a patio table for 6, grill and a few pool toys, all next to that wonderful bed/game room, this is all sure to be the center of Your Family Fun.
House was large and nice, but there were a few problems. We had 15 people but there are only enough beds for 14. That is if two people sleep on the pullout that is in one of the bedrooms. One of our guest slept on the couch, that is not a pullout, and another on a cot that we brought. There are small mats provided but they would only be comfortable for a young child. I would say this house works best for six adults and 7 children. We were creeped out when we saw rats on the property. The first was on the first day when one was observed running away from the front door. The second was floating on our swimming float in the pool, and then the next morning we saw two in the front yard. We called the agent but were told that they were a protected species and could not do anything about them. The carpets needed cleaning badly. We were disappointed to find the beach cart broken and unusable, the umbrella broken and four of the bikes broken.
These items should not be included in the amenities since they are unusable.
The location is good if you want somewhere off of the beaten path. Very safe for bike riding, and the beaches are not crowded. The pool is also nice to have.
The home is gorgeous – spacious, modern, clean, and very sunny and cheerful. Four large bedrooms, huge bathrooms, open floor plan, wrap around decks with two views of the ocean (sunrises and sunsets !). Swimming pool with plenty of chairs and lounging space, shower by the pool, bikes to ride, games, tv's everywhere, the list is endless. The kitchen and eating area are 5 star ! The owners have provided all the cooking and dining amenities, nothing has been left out. Plenty of seating - 12 or more - around the dining room table.
The beaches are gorgeous too and only a boardwalk away – fine sand, perfect for swimming, beach-combing, or sun-bathing. You can hike them for miles, or just sit and relax to the ocean waves or watch the sunset. One memorable evening we grabbed the lawn chairs and had a fire on the beach under the stars. And if you need a change of pace from the ocean there is also a community swimming pool a very short walk from Sunsational.
Other activities that we experienced were horseback riding on the beach, hiking Cape San Blas State Park, biking the peninsula, visiting the manatees at Edward Ball Wakulla Springs State Park (2 hour ride but worth it), checking out the pristine caves at Florida Caverns State Park (1.5 hrs), hiking and watching the dolphins at St Vincent Wildlife Refuge, and sightseeing and dining in Port St Joe and Apalachicola.
Everything in the owner's description of their home and area is 100% true. You will absolutely not be disappointed if you rent this property. We will definitely be coming back !
Stayed at this home Sept 2010. It was clean, large, wonderful. The pool was so nice, the kitchen was wonderful to cook in. Bedrooms large, large, large. So much room and space. Plently of games and a huge video library. Very wonderful beach home. We loved it. You cannot go wrong renting this home. We were there a whole month and enjoyed every minute being there. You can tell the owners have gone that extra mile to make it a wonderful experience.

AbstractNON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: Economic impacts due to coldwater disease (CWD) have dramatically increased in recent years at public and private aquaculture facilities and CWD is the number one disese problem in the commercial rainbow trout industry in Idaho. In the United States, antibiotics available for the therapeutic treatment of fish with this disease are very limited and not expected to increase. Vaccination against this disease would provide the most benefit to aquaculturists through prevention of epizootics and a subsequent decrease in the need for antibiotic treatment. The Phase II studies are essential to provide a better understanding of the undrlying mechanism(s) involved in a protective immune response against Flavobacterium psychrophilum. This work will provide the foundation for the development and commercialization of a vaccine against CWD in Phase III.

Skip to comments.AZ Gov! Get the National Guard to stop illegals coming into the state & across the border! (Vanity)
Posted on 06/12/2014 5:18:31 PM PDT by ReaganÜberAlles
Why can't Governor Brewer simply refuse to let the buses and those on foot cross the border at all international and state borders?
We need a thread for Goodhair LaRaza Rick/Texas, too!!
They BOTH could/should be stopping this, and they're not.
Where are the Minutemen, now?
Because she is a lesser evil RINO that refused to do her duty when Obama screwed AZ all the times before.
Because Obama/Holder would have her and her state employees arrested-—and NOBODY would do anything about it.
Tom Horne is the only conservative running for re-election in the same office in Arizona.
All our bases are belong to them.
Governor Brewer wouldn't even protect religious liberty, any hope in her is grossly misplaced. She's a total moron coward
I'd like to see Arpaio sue the asses off of Soetoro and his boy, Holder. I don't think the eGOP will do anything about this travesty.
they're not just coming straight across the border. ICE is bussing them into Maricopa County greyhound station:
It's craziness !!
todas sus bases son pertenecen a nosotros
Isn't the bus station in Phoenix under the PDs jurisdiction?
Remember Judge Garrity the lib Judge who took over the Boston School district. Why can't we have or own Judge Garrity and have him take over Immigration and homeland security since the people who are running it refuse to do their jobs?
That's what I mean. Stop the buses at the border and deny them entry into the state.
Why ..... because Hollywood and the commie media are experts at manipulating the ever declining income and economics of USA citizens into being afraid and selling out their own, just as we schmucks were convinced to sacrifice our kids, our treasury and our servicemen in the Middle East.
The entire ME should be annihilated into molten glass.
That's been done before. The Guard was kept unarmed while doing various menial tasks for police.
tambien nuestra dinero, pais y libertad
Because Greta Van Sustren saved her re-election and brought her kicking and screaming across the finish line by pretending to be concerned by SB1070, the falsely defined "show me your papers" law.
This is not really Brewers thing. She prefers to raise taxes; that's her passion; and unfiltered Virginia Slims.
Things are the way they are because those who are in charge want them this way. (as Obama would say, "Period!")
The WH, run by a Middle Easterner and females..
ICE run by a black man..
Looks like we gotta just let America burn. Let's watch!!! Isn't this FUN?
This is exactly the kind of thing that needs to happen on the state level. But it appears that it never will.
I didn't know there was such a thing as unfiltered Virginia Slims.
I see her taking out the filters. And smoking while she drinks bourbon, neat.
Not sure how to Sheriff Joe is going to handle it other than your idea - sheriffs standing off against ICE/DHA, and escorting the busses back to the county line, as each sheriff does the same all the 1200 miles back to Texas. Sorry, Texas. Arpaio has proved himself not a man to fool with and Zero may learn quickly when his busses are turned around that the American his momma taught him to hate won't put up with the immature shenannagans that have become the watermark of this administration.
I don't understand why some conservatives with access to the media don't call for everyone to cancel all vacation travel to Mexico until the Marine is released and their government halts the dangerous migration of children.
Boycotting tequila might be a bit difficult.
"Looks like we gotta just let America burn. Let's watch!!! Isn't this FUN?"
That's about all there is left to do unless a lot of us decide to take it back in the same manner our forefathers did. That doesn't look at all likely. We are all too soft.
We have allowed a man who hates us and everything we stand for to gain control and work his evil for five years.
His constituents are amoral, perverted and without conscience. They are legion. Unless our Creator decides to have mercy on us, we are literally history. Frankly, in my opinion, we don't deserve mercy for what we have ouselves allowed to stand.
What does it take for Boehner to begin Articles of Impeachment for the Democrats Obama?
My understanding is that Rick Perry has repeatedly put the Texas Rangers on the Texas border to try to stop the flow even to the point of several altercations between the rangers and the border patrol who won't do their job.
Texas has a true state guard. Arizona does not.
"I see her taking out the filters. And smoking while she drinks bourbon, neat."
Good for her-—at least she's not P.C.
This is how I imagine her. Photos of the grandkids on a fake paneled wall in a den with patched barcaloungers, and travel trailer in the side yard with a bumper sticker that says, "kiss my grits" and another that says, "Look for the union label."
I would Imagine Obama would direct Holder to come down hard on AZ.. If Obama wants to be fair about this— drop off the many at the white house and let it become their problem to resolve. Instead Obama lets all of this become other states problems and makes Az figure what they must do...and do not look to white house for help..Obama is to busy with new scandals week after week..
Georgia has a true state guard also.
This would have NEVER happened had females not been allowed to vote. That was America's turning point into the abyss. Just sayin'. 2016 here they come, Sandra Fluke and all.. AGAIN.
"This would have NEVER happened had females not been allowed to vote."
You could be right. But you'd be hard pressed to sort them out nowadays. Who could tell for sure?
