The present system and method relates to the configuration of a mobile station baseband circuit for an acoustic accessory, and in particular to the configuration of the acoustic frequency response and audio gain parameters for a specific acoustic accessory.
Acoustic devices come in a variety of shapes and are made of various materials. This results in a different form factor for each acoustic device which will impact the acoustic characteristics of the microphone and receiver.
Such acoustic devices include wireless short-range communication devices such as Bluetooth™ devices. Bluetooth™ devices are capable of point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communications.
In present systems, a mobile station uses a generic CODEC and audio filter parameters for the acoustic device. These parameters cannot compensate for the different acoustic characteristics of all the various acoustic devices.
The present system and method provides for the configuration of a mobile station based on the acoustic device being used in association with that mobile station. While various acoustic devices and communication protocols can be used, in one embodiment the acoustic device is a Bluetooth™ device. Every Bluetooth™ device has its own identification code consisting of a Bluetooth™ device address. As well, many manufacturers encode Bluetooth™ devices to transmit a Bluetooth™ device name and/or model number, providing a unique identifier for the type of device that is being used.
Accordingly, the present system and method receives the Bluetooth™ device name and/or model number, or in a different communications protocol, a unique identifier for the device, and configures the acoustic baseband circuit in the mobile station with the acoustics of the acoustic device. This will ensure the overall acoustic frequency response of mobile station and acoustic device will meet the required Telecommunications Industry Association Electro-Acoustic Standard.
In one embodiment of the present system and method, the digital signal processing (DSP) filter response and coder-decoder (CODEC) acoustic gain parameters of the mobile station for a specific acoustic device can be stored in the memory of the mobile station. In other embodiments, the DSP filter response and coder-decoder (CODEC) acoustic gain parameters can be loaded from a remote database.
The present application therefore provides a method for the configuration of a mobile station acoustic baseband circuit to compensate for acoustic characteristics of an acoustic device having an identifier, the method comprising the steps of determining whether the mobile station recognizes the identifier of the acoustic device; and configuring the acoustic baseband circuit with a DSP acoustic frequency response and CODEC acoustic gain parameters for the acoustic device if the mobile station recognizes the identifier of the acoustic device.
The present application further provides a system for providing similar acoustic characteristics for each of a plurality of acoustic devices communicating with a mobile station, the system comprising: an identifier for each of the plurality of acoustic devices; a local memory in the mobile station storing a an acoustic frequency response and an acoustic gain parameter for at least one of the plurality of acoustic devices and for mapping the acoustic frequency response and the acoustic gain parameter with the identifier of at least one of the plurality of acoustic devices; a digital signal processor of an acoustic baseband circuit of the mobile station configured to re-shape an acoustic frequency response based on the acoustic device identifier; and a CODEC of an acoustic baseband circuit of the mobile station configured to adjust an acoustic gain based on the acoustic device identifier.
The present system and method will be better understood with reference to the drawings in which:
The present system and method ensures that the frequency response and voice output levels for each audio accessory paired with a mobile station are equivalent and all meet the same certification acoustic mark. It is required that the mobile station therefore automatically reshapes the acoustic frequency response and adjusts the audio gain parameters in the mobile station baseband circuit for a particular acoustic accessory.
The present invention is described below with reference to a Bluetooth™ accessory and a mobile station. However, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, other communications protocols could be used including a wired connection or other wireless protocols. Further, one skilled in the art will appreciate that, instead of a mobile station, other hosted devices could be used. These could include, for example, a desktop computer streaming music to a remote headset accessory, a stereo system streaming music to speakers, other voice devices, the acoustic portion of a video device, or a headset/car kit for a vehicle.
Reference is now made to
If a Bluetooth™ audio or multimedia accessory is paired to the mobile station, the mobile station in step 12 determines an identifier for the Bluetooth™ accessory. This would generally be the model number of the accessory and would be provided to the mobile station during the handshaking between the accessory and the mobile station. Currently, it is not within the standard Bluetooth™ specification to provide a model number necessarily. However, many manufacturers are including this information voluntarily.
The mobile station next proceeds to step 14 in which it is determined whether or not the identifier found in step 12 is recognized. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, if the identifier is not provided by the device manufacturer, then no ID code will exist and therefore the device will not be recognized.
Step 14 only recognizes the identifier if the identifier and characteristics for the device are stored locally.
In step 14 if the identifier is not recognized, the mobile station next proceeds to step 16. In step 16 it is determined whether or not the acoustic parameters can be downloaded from a wireless server. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, this step can only occur if using a mobile station that is connected to a communications network. If the present system is implemented on a device without communications capabilities, this step will not exist and the system will need to proceed directly to step 18 as described below.
If, in step 16, it is found to not be possible to download the acoustic parameters from a wireless server, then the mobile station proceeds to step 18 in which a DSP filter response and CODEC acoustic gain parameters are set for a generic device. This is the default setting in case the acoustic device does not provide an identifier, does not have a frequency response DSP filter or CODEC acoustic gain parameter within a database or stored in the memory of the mobile station or the host device does not have communication capability.
If, in step 14, the identifier is recognized and stored in local memory, or if in step 16 the acoustic parameters can be downloaded from a wireless server, the mobile station proceeds to step 20. In step 20 the DSP filter response of the mobile station is configured for the specific Bluetooth™ accessory based on the ID code. Also, the CODEC acoustic gain parameters of the mobile station are configured for the specific Bluetooth™ accessory based on the identifier.
Step 16 preferably allows the mobile station to access a remote database that contains a list of acoustic devices and the acoustic DSP filter response and acoustic gain parameters for these devices. The use of a remote database enables the present system and method to be configured for a plurality of devices without the necessity to store the parameters for these devices in local memory.
From step 18 or step 20, the mobile station proceeds to step 22 and ends the configuration of the mobile station baseband circuitry.
Reference is now made to
The dotted line on
In a further alternative embodiment, multiple devices could be used with a single mobile station. Bluetooth provides for the communication between multiple devices, and the baseband circuitry could be reconfigured depending on which device the mobile station is communicating with. If communicating with multiple devices simultaneously, this communication is divided into timeslots for each device, and the mobile station could be reconfigured between each of these timeslots.
Reference is now made to
Typically, controller 106 is embodied as a central processing unit (CPU) which runs operating system software in a memory component (not shown). Controller 106 will normally control overall operation of mobile station 102, whereas signal processing operations associated with communication functions are typically performed in RF transceiver circuitry 108. Controller 106 interfaces with device display 112 to display received information, stored information, user inputs, and the like. Keyboard 114, which may be a telephone type keypad or full alphanumeric keyboard, is normally provided for entering data for storage in mobile station 102, information for transmission to network 104, a telephone number to place a telephone call, commands to be executed on mobile station 102, and possibly other or different user inputs.
Mobile station 102 sends communication signals to and receives communication signals from network 104 over a wireless link via antenna 110. RF transceiver circuitry 108 performs functions similar to those of a radio network (RN) 128, including for example modulation/demodulation and possibly encoding/decoding and encryption/decryption. It is also contemplated that RF transceiver circuitry 108 may perform certain functions in addition to those performed by RN 128. It will be apparent to those skilled in art that RF transceiver circuitry 108 will be adapted to particular wireless network or networks in which mobile station 102 is intended to operate.
Mobile station 102 includes a battery interface 122 for receiving one or more rechargeable batteries 124. Battery 124 provides electrical power to electrical circuitry in mobile station 102, and battery interface 122 provides for a mechanical and electrical connection for battery 124. Battery interface 122 is coupled to a regulator 126 which regulates power to the device. When mobile station 102 is fully operational, an RF transmitter of RF transceiver circuitry 108 is typically turned on only when it is sending to network, and is otherwise turned off to conserve resources. Similarly, an RF receiver of RF transceiver circuitry 108 is typically periodically turned off to conserve power until it is needed to receive signals or information (if at all) during designated time periods.
Mobile station 102 operates using a memory module 120, such as a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) or a Removable User Identity Module (R-UIM), which is connected to or inserted in mobile station 102 at an interface 118. As an alternative to a SIM or an R-UIM, mobile station 102 may operate based on configuration data programmed by a service provider into an internal memory which is a non-volatile memory. Mobile station 102 may consist of a single unit, such as a data communication device, a cellular telephone, a multiple-function communication device with data and voice communication capabilities, a personal digital assistant (PDA) enabled for wireless communication, or a computer incorporating an internal modem. Alternatively, mobile station 102 may be a multiple-module unit comprising a plurality of separate components, including but in no way limited to a computer or other device connected to a wireless modem. In particular, for example, in the mobile station block diagram of
Mobile station 102 communicates in and through wireless communication network 104. In the embodiment of
During operation, mobile station 102 communicates with RN 128 which performs functions such as call-setup, call processing, and mobility management. RN 128 includes a plurality of base station transceiver systems that provide wireless network coverage for a particular coverage area commonly referred to as a "cell". A given base station transceiver system of RN 128, such as the one shown in
The wireless link shown in communication system 100 of
For all mobile station's 102 registered with a network operator, permanent data (such as mobile station 102 user's profile) as well as temporary data (such as mobile station's 102 current location) are stored in a HLR/AC 138. In case of a voice call to mobile station 102, HLR/AC 138 is queried to determine the current location of mobile station 102. A Visitor Location Register (VLR) of MSC 130 is responsible for a group of location areas and stores the data of those mobile stations that are currently in its area of responsibility. This includes parts of the permanent mobile station data that have been transmitted from HLR/AC 138 to the VLR for faster access. However, the VLR of MSC 130 may also assign and store local data, such as temporary identifications. Mobile station 102 is also authenticated on system access by HLR/AC 138. In order to provide packet data services to mobile station 102 in a CDMA2000-based network, RN 128 communicates with PDSN 132. PDSN 132 provides access to the Internet 144 (or intranets, Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) servers, etc.) through IP network 134. PDSN 132 also provides foreign agent (FA) functionality in mobile IP networks as well as packet transport for virtual private networking. PDSN 132 has a range of IP addresses and performs IP address management, session maintenance, and optional caching. RADIUS server 136 is responsible for performing functions related to authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) of packet data services, and may be referred to as an AAA server.
Wireless communication network 104 also includes a Push-to-talk over Cellular (PoC) server 137 which may be coupled to IP network 134. PoC server 137 operates to facilitate PoC individual and group communication sessions between mobile stations within network 104. A conventional PoC communication session involves a session connection between end users of mobile stations, referred to as session "participants", who communicate one at a time in a half-duplex manner much like conventional walkie-talkies or two-way radios.
Those skilled in art will appreciate that wireless network 104 may be connected to other systems, possibly including other networks, not explicitly shown in
Mobile station 202 will normally incorporate a communication subsystem 211, which includes a receiver 212, a transmitter 214, and associated components, such as one or more (preferably embedded or internal) antenna elements 216 and 218, local oscillators (LOs) 213, and a processing module such as a digital signal processor (DSP) 220. Communication subsystem 211 is analogous to RF transceiver circuitry 108 and antenna 110 shown in
Mobile station 202 may send and receive communication signals over the network after required network registration or activation procedures have been completed. Signals received by antenna 216 through the network are input to receiver 212, which may perform such common receiver functions as signal amplification, frequency down conversion, filtering, channel selection, and like, and in example shown in
Network access is associated with a subscriber or user of mobile station 202, and therefore mobile station 202 requires a memory module 262, such as a Subscriber Identity Module or "SIM" card or a Removable User Identity Module (R-UIM), to be inserted in or connected to an interface 264 of mobile station 202 in order to operate in the network. Alternatively, memory module 262 may be a non-volatile memory which is programmed with configuration data by a service provider so that mobile station 202 may operate in the network. Since mobile station 202 is a mobile battery-powered device, it also includes a battery interface 254 for receiving one or more rechargeable batteries 256. Such a battery 256 provides electrical power to most if not all electrical circuitry in mobile station 202, and battery interface 254 provides for a mechanical and electrical connection for it. The battery interface 254 is coupled to a regulator (not shown in
Mobile station 202 includes a microprocessor 238 (which is one implementation of controller 106 of
Microprocessor 238, in addition to its operating system functions, preferably enables execution of software applications on mobile station 202. A predetermined set of applications which control basic device operations, including at least data and voice communication applications, will normally be installed on mobile station 202 during its manufacture. A preferred application that may be loaded onto mobile station 202 may be a personal information manager (PIM) application having the ability to organize and manage data items relating to user such as, but not limited to, e-mail, calendar events, voice mails, appointments, and task items. Naturally, one or more memory stores are available on mobile station 202 and SIM 256 to facilitate storage of PIM data items and other information.
The PIM application preferably has the ability to send and receive data items via the wireless network. In a preferred embodiment, PIM data items are seamlessly integrated, synchronized, and updated via the wireless network, with the mobile station user's corresponding data items stored and/or associated with a host computer system thereby creating a mirrored host computer on mobile station 202 with respect to such items. This is especially advantageous where the host computer system is the mobile station user's office computer system. Additional applications may also be loaded onto mobile station 202 through network, an auxiliary I/O subsystem 228, serial port 230, short-range communications subsystem 240, or any other suitable subsystem 242, and installed by a user in RAM 226 or preferably a non-volatile store (not shown) for execution by microprocessor 238. Such flexibility in application installation increases the functionality of mobile station 202 and may provide enhanced on-device functions, communication-related functions, or both. For example, secure communication applications may enable electronic commerce functions and other such financial transactions to be performed using mobile station 202.
In a data communication mode, a received signal such as a text message, an e-mail message, or web page download will be processed by communication subsystem 211 and input to microprocessor 238. Microprocessor 238 will preferably further process the signal for output to display 222 or alternatively to auxiliary I/O device 228. A user of mobile station 202 may also compose data items, such as e-mail messages, for example, using keyboard 232 in conjunction with display 222 and possibly auxiliary I/O device 228. Keyboard 232 is preferably a complete alphanumeric keyboard and/or telephone-type keypad. These composed items may be transmitted over a communication network through communication subsystem 211.
For voice communications, the overall operation of mobile station 202 is substantially similar, except that the received signals would be output to speaker 234 and signals for transmission would be generated by microphone 236. Alternative voice or audio I/O subsystems, such as a voice message recording subsystem, may also be implemented on mobile station 202. Although voice or audio signal output is preferably accomplished primarily through speaker 234, display 222 may also be used to provide an indication of the identity of a calling party, duration of a voice call, or other voice call related information, as some examples.
Serial port 230 in
Short-range communications subsystem 240 of

Stort fint rom. Stor fin bar / lounge. Nydelig utsikt. God frokost. Gode parkeringsmuligheter
Badebassenget, resepsjonen, parkeringsmulighetene
Gammelt ærverdig hotell. Konfortabelt med både innendørs- og utendørs basseng når man reiser med barn. Nydelige fellesrom med tilgjengelig trådløst nettverk. Fantastisk utsikt over havet. Det var svært varmt om natten. Hotellet er gammelt, og det finnes ikke aircondition. Vi fikk heller ikke åpnet vinduet, og balkongen var stengt. Hotellet trenger vedlikehold.
Den klassiske engelske comfort og eleganse både i selve bygget og betjening. A toch of class. Rommet vårt - premium seaview var absolutt noe av det beste vi har opplevd Internetlinjen - og vi valgte den dyreste/ business - var ikke særlig effektiv, men det skyldes neppe hotellet. Antagelig engelsk standard....
attractive comfortable surroundings.Good location.
Graham and Tracy are the perfect hosts, we were made to feel 'at home' as soon as we arrived. Hotel and room beautifully decorated with tasteful furnishings and immaculately clean. Breakfasts are superb.
Everything about the place was fantatstic and the owners were so attentive to our needs.
Very relaxing and a very warm welcome - would recommend
Very nice and central location. Made to feel very welcome.
Everything! The rooms were beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The breakfast was cooked to perfection and the owners wer lovely people.
the room was wonderful and really comfortable
We liked the fact that our hosts were friendly and helpful, the food wasdelicious and the rooms immaculate. As it is a smaller guest house, our hosts provided a service which was personal to them to which they can be proud of. we liked everything about the hotel.
Peacefull and relaxing time in a beautiful, immaculate house. Attentive owners who care you have a good time.
The hospitatlity was wonderful as well as the food. The rooms were clean and well lit. Updated bathrooms en suite.
staff very welcoming and friendly
We have just stayed for 5 nights at the Carlton Court Hotel and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The hosts Phil and Helen made us feel very welcome and they cant do enough for you. The breakfasts are delicious with more than enough choice. This hotel is definately recommended and hope to stay there again in the Summer.
Friendly and helpful proprietors, clean, quiet, well-equipped comfortable rooms, superb breakfast, best hotel in this class we have experienced in many years No
The proprietors were very friendly and helpful. The room very clean, very comfortable and the breakfast excellent. Nothing.
friendly hosts clean very large room helen and phil could not do enough for you will be going back
Nothing was disliked
Would recormend Not the best shower & slow hot and cold water but not a reason to complain
excellent beds
Had a great weekend at this hotel - the room was fantastic, very comfortable and hotel was in a good location for the centre. Breakfast was yummy and we were made to feel very welcome. Will def be going back.
The room and hotel was of a high standard with well decorated rooms and a very comfortable bed, the staff were friendly but not over bearing. i will be visting this hotel again.
The hotel owners (and staff) were all incredibly helpful and it is a clean and well-run establishment. Would have no hesitation recommending to others. Excellent stay.
The beautiful surrounds in the rooms,and all the furniture and fittings.
Very friendly staff, excellent breakfast. the room was spacious, clean and well decorated.
no ventilation in the bathroom
The hotel was beautiful and elegant, it was the only hotel I can say I have stayed at and been made to feel absolutely number one waited on hand and foot. Amazing experience.
staff were outstandingly friendly & very welcoming! Room & ensuite immaculate. A menu for breakfast?! Bagels with smoked salmon & scrambled egg - delicious! a bit out of town, 10 minutes uphill walk, not for the unfit!
Everything, the location and especially the the staff. The welcome by the owner was a pleasent surprise in one of the best surroundings ever. A perfect few days.
That you were treated as an individual, and made to feel very welcome. The hotel has a very relaxing and tranquil atmosphere about it. The decor very beautiful. But mostly i enjoyed sitting listening to Craigh play the piano whilst i had my breakfast.
A warm welcome from the owner, Craig, started off a very enjoyable stay. Beautiful room, excellent breakfast and a good location, 10 minute walk from town centre.
Excellent Staff, service and breakfast, very clean throughout Was expecting a slightly larger room
The very high quality decor and fittings in the room
no bath
The way you were made welcome. The rooms were very good. The breakfast was very plentiful and very tasty. The whole experience was as good as it gets. Even a 5 star hotel would go a long way to beat this.. The management made it feel like your own home.
Attention to detail
Friendley and helpful staff , cleanliness of the rooms. n/a
This Guest House /bb was absolutely fabulous. We were only there for one night but we never wanted to leave. The Bedroom was luxurious and had everything you could need in it. Hairdryer, Bathrobes, soap, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel, Huge bath towels for when you manage to drag yourself out of the brilliant shower,Tea/coffee (with fresh milk in a chiller in the corridor along with cookies and muffins to help yourself to). Iron and ironing board, dab radio, tv. You only need to turn up with your clothes!! The breakfast was excellent with a massive choice of juices, smoothies, yogurts, pastries, cereals etc etc and then your cooked breakfast. Would I reccomend the The Somerfield??? Yes - without hesitation!!! Didn't come across anything I would change or was not happy with.
Everything was perfect the personel service really pleasant best accommodation ive stayed in for along time..
Very relaxed atmosphere - great staff quite small rooms but very nice
very friendly
Cleanliness of rooms are to a very high standard. Choice of breakfast is very good. Staff are friendley and informative of location. No problem with parking like some places in this area. We will return to this venue again soon. No
The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. there advice on places to visit in the locality made the holiday extremely enjoyable. The food was of a very high standard and the facilities were very brilliant.
The owners Andrew & Janet went out of their way to make us welcome. We would definately go back.
excellent hotel hosts very friendly food also excellent, superior room well worth the extra cost would go back if in the area
It was a very friendly hotel, clean and an excellent breakfast. The room was very spacious and clean. The bottle of wine was very much appreciated. Thanks for your hospitality.
The hotel staff were lovely, very friend and helpful! The room was very clean and nicely decorated! Will defantley be coming back and recommeding. No all was pleasant
close to town, very friendly, made very welcome.
freindly staff, good food, nice rooms all round exellance !!!!
The owners, Andrew and Janet, were very friendly and welcoming - interested in how we were enjoying our stay. The breakfasts were superb - well worth having. The hotel was a bit further from Torquay town centre than we realised, luckily enough we found a bus that stopped not too far away. Bathroom was perhaps a little bit cramped and the pink/peach bathroom fittings were a little bit overpowering.
Pleasant informative staff. Quiet and peaceful location. Would stay there again.
Extremely friendly and accommodating. Andrew and janet went out of their way to make you feel welcome and did everything possible to cater for our needs. No
Excellent clean, well decorated, furnished room. The food was excellent. The owners are very good straight-forward people who want their guests to have a good stay at their hotel. Highly recommended. No complaints.
The Hotel is really a Guest House, the owners although very friendly and clean have not much experience in hospitlity, the room was small and cramped although clean and tidy and decorated to a good standard, Carparking is disasterous The Guest House boasts five double rooms yet there is parking for three cars, but this is stacked with exit for cars in front making it necesary to request other guests to move their vehicles, the owners also have two cars which they park on site. breakfast was small, not much choice, dinning area was cramped whilst we were there only three rooms were taken I would think when the Guest house is full this could be uncomfortable. in all I would say value for money, would not recommend. very restricted parking, small rooms, cramped dinning area, breakfast bar restricted to small welsh dresser, in doorway to kitchen no room for dishing cereals which were presented in tupper ware pots,room for only one person with bowl in hand helping themseves to cereal whilst doging staff walking to and from kitchen. other reviews do not accurately reflect the level of this establishment, I'm afraid out of the five Hotels we stayed at on this tour of the West country this came last by a mile
Owner/Staff very friendly, and welcoming.
The excellent service from the owners. They were very friendly and helpful with what activities were available in the area.
We were made welcome as soon as we arrived. The breakfast was brilliant and the options were very good. The room was excellant and very comfortable. We came away feeling we had been nicely spoilt !
The friendlliness, helpfulness of the owners and their lovely clean and welcoming home.
A very well decorated and exceptionally clean hotel with a very warm, friendly and informative landlord and lady. The brekfast was always freshly cooked to eat and presented. The bed was an absolute dream of comfort. NO
Owners of the hotel are fantastic. They were really helpful and suggested some interesting places to visit. It was really nice to spend time there. Hotel is very comfortable and clean. I hope we can come back there and I will recommend this place to my friends.
Both Jo and Will (the owners) were very accomodating, polite, friendly and made our stay a very pleasant one. the only thing i could possibly pick fault with was the fact our room didn't have double glazing and being a light sleeper i was awoken by the odd noise but every other aspect of the hotel more than made up for that slight discrepancy
The four poster room was great, the owners could not do enough for you, even a cup of tea with a small cake on arival.
We were made to feel very welcome by the owners, shown to our room and given a welcome pot of tea and biscuits. Throughout our 4 days there, nothing was too much trouble, excellent breakfasts, and friendly, as well as informative, conversations. The location was ideal for a walk down to the sea front or the train station, with regular bus services nearby if we wanted to go further afield.
Bright , light and clean. Nothing.
The friendliness of the owners,cleanliness of the facilities,The fact that your breakfast was cooked from scratch no pre cooked food was used.
Our stay was so relaxing from start to finish such a great couple that run this place and we will go back.
Cleanliness and hospitality of owners Andy & Carol
Very friendly atmosphere. Spotlessly clean spacious room ("superior") which had a huge bed, quality furniture and small shower ensuite. Good breakfasts. Easy walk to station and seafront or bus stop few yards away.
We had a very nice family room which was very large and comfortable for all of us. The hosts were thankfully very understanding and accommodating of small children!
Friendliness of owners and location for town was very good
location was excellent, could get to lots of popular places quickly. The en suite shower was on the small side, a larger person would have had difficulty.
The owners Carol and Andy were very pleasant and helpful, suggesting places to visit and things to do.The accommodation was very clean and modern. The breakfast's were excellant. Cannot praise them enough. The bedroom and bedding was beautiful, but we were very warm at night. A top sheet for warm weather might be helpful.
Flott hotell, utmerket beliggenhet, god service, hyggelig personale, gode fasiliteter, nydelig hotellområde med godt vedlikeholdt og oppvarmet svømmebasseng. Rommet var noe under forventet standard for et 4-stjerners hotell. Dobbelseng med to madrasser, hvorav den ene var veldig hard mens den andre var bare litt hard.
good clean hotel, very good breakfast
excellent staff - very friendly
the location, hotel and staff wonderful will recommend to friends and family plus two cars parks which is a bonus in torquay
very friendly proprietors, excellent breakfast, nice bar and lounge, tasteful decor, good parking and location superb there is nothing to dislike about this hotel
Hosts were helpful and friendly. Clean, comfortable room and good breakfast. Close to lots of restaurants and bars
Nice friendly atmosphere, very pleasant breakfast
The staff were helpful and friendly, the room is immacculate, the breakfast fantastic (including own filter coffee - even decaf!), bus stop outside front door, walking distance from harbour, car parking all day for free, reasonable rates.
We both travel a great deal and have not come across such a high standard of decor in a room, very impressed no
Very clean, Modern bathroom fittings. Quality furniture.Super breakfast and friendly staff Only downside is the steps to the Hotel and adjacent Car park and we were on the top floor. Not a problem to us but could be to others.
The hotel was very comfortable. Breakfast was very good and youcould have a variety of choices. The owners were very helpful and would do what they could to make your stay as relaxing as possible.
Very warm welcome. Nice clean room which lovely white fluffy towels and an excellent array of toietries
Made to feel very welcome with complimentary drinks on arrival. Friendly staff, nothing too much trouble.
Friendly atmosphere, felt welcome; very helpful owner and his wife; off street parking, though may be difficult in busy periods; lovely room though not the one I thought I had booked with booking.com as the picture and room did not seem the same However I would happily have this particular room again; most important the hotel was free from annoying noises during the night. Superb TV Hot and cold water very slow
The car park is not for the faint hearted. Unable to shower as a hose over the bath and no shield to enable a shower
the hosts were nice location good food was good hotel parking
friendly people who run it steep zigzag drive upto car park
Central location.very easy walk to town.good breakfast. We arrived to be told we had not been booked a room there,even though I had a reference no from activehotels.when I got home I queried it and was told the hotel had received my booking and they had also received a fax to confirm my booking.we were disappointed but took the only double room left,which I have to say was not the best.the window had been propped open with a piece of wood,the ceiling in the bathroom was covered in dust/cobwebs.it was dingy and outdated.we took the room with a view that we only needed to stay a night!the car park was very difficult to negotiate.whilst we were there a chap managed to ground his car on the hlly car park,he ended up parking outside and the following morning received a parking ticket.
Friendly close to harbour and restaurants
nice friendly hosts, excellent room, excellent breakfast the car park was a little difficult to get into and out of
food good The pictures were very deceiving, room was not as in advert, much smaller.
it was very relaxed very welcoming and right next to everything.
The breakfast was very good, The bathroom was tiny, with a basic shower and the water pressure was very poor too. however this did not impact on our 2 day stay at all.
How friendly the owners were, made you feel very welcome. Great breakfast! Very central to town.
Excellent service and breakfast. Very clean and tidy. Great location near all restaurant,bar and harbour.
Nice clean and friendly hotel Room a little bit small
Every other hotel that we have stayed in replenished the tea, coffee and milk, this was not done in the whole 2 days,
Convenient location
Hotel was very comfortable , breakfast was excellent and staff were very friendly. The owners helped us out when we were in a fix - they have hearts of gold. The location was great for getting out and about in Torquay.
A lovely hotel within walking distance of Torquay. Welcoming staff who are very friendly. Last bit of walk to hotel is a bit steep.
Within 20 mins of booking on website I was called by hotel with confirmation. staff friendly & attentive. good location close to town & marina 8 min walk None
Cheap and cheerful. Room small but comfy. Stayed only one night - would probably find it too small to stay a whole week. Need to be fairly fit to climb the hill back from the town. Parking very tight. Overall would recomend for one or two nights especially at that price!
Close to main area and shops only a short walk away
My wife didn't complain about anything so it must have been good as she doesn't like Hotels or B&B normally . The owners were very good
The lady who runs the hotel is lovely. The hotel is very clean and beautifully decorated. Breakfast was good. It is a good 25 minute walk into Torquay.
beautiful room, friendly staff, good breakfast
The owner was lovely and made me feel very welcome. The bed was comfortable and it was nice to have the freeview TV I would be nice to have the internet.
quiet area very small en-suite. Had to look for reception staff as no one around. was not given info about breakfast or use of TV when checking in
great room, great location, good breakfast and friendly helpful staff.
close to beach and all amenities, good sized car park.
Advertises a bar which did not open, also said it was close to town centre but was a half an hour walk away.
We stayed in Torquay for the events surrounding the Agatha Christie anniversary. We found the Hotel an excellent base, for its proximity to the main places of interest -Museum, walking tour, Peignton Library, & the Promenade Also, the Hotel had an old-fashioned air, in keeping with the event, without being in any way 'down at heel' and the breakfasts were good not really
Friendly helpful staff, quiet location, nice environment. Restaurant was closed
The friendliness and location The restaurant was closed which was very disappointing to me as I prefer to eat in the hotel. With a young child with me we had to go out every night to find somewhere to eat

The Ethos Eat Drink building is special, one of Hobart, Tasmania's oldest and most unusual buildings. Once long forgotten, the historic building and it's walled courtyard have been given a new lease on life. The oldest part of the building was constructed around 1820 and served as the stable of The Old Hobart Hotel. The hotel was demolished around 1830 and the building that now surrounds the walled stable yard was constructed soon after. Several other additions have been made to the building over the last 100 years or so, while Ash Chemist and Druggist operated throughout the 100 Elizabeth Street sight from around 1830 to 2000. The stable building that Ethos now occupies has lain dormant for around 100 years since the carriageway access has been blocked off.
Through the long renovation process Ethos have managed to salvage a lot of materials including hundreds of antique chemist bottles, which have been integrated into the restaurant as chandeliers.

If you like exploring a book's provenance, you've probably channeled you inner genealogist at times to mine the clues provided in inscriptions and bookplates, or notes, letters, and other ephemera laid in. I use such clues often when researching a book's previous ownership.
This is just a quick post to recommend a link to an enjoyable piece of writing on the subject.
Over at the Book Tryst blog, Cokie G. Anderson has written an excellent article with some fine, albeit uncommon, examples of provenance discovery. Check it out for a little inspiration in your own sleuthing activities.

The Zagat Review
"Three different levels with three different themes" attract a "lively, varied" crowd to this Gaslamp "favorite", featuring a "classic" ground-floor bar, a fireplace-enhanced second-floor lounge complete with a pool table and an "energetic" basement nightclub that has DJs and dancing; staffers "treat you special" no matter which you choose, and regulars suggest you check out the "drink exchange" happy hour, where beverage prices fluctuate like a cocktail "stock market" for an "interactive drinking" experience.
Zagat reviews are compiled from individual user reviews. Write your review.Write your review.

Senate Committee Approves Assault Weapons Ban, Bill Moves to Senate Floor
WASHINGTON - The Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday approved a renewed assault-weapons ban, advancing the measure to the Senate floor where it will face intense resistance from Republicans and other gun-rights supporters.
The bill was approved by the committee on a party-line, 10-8 vote. Chief sponsor, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said she knows "the road is uphill" for the legislation, but sought to press her colleagues to consider the bill.
"Are we going to stand with the thousands of police chiefs and law enforcement officers who do support this bill? Are we going to stand with the victims of gun violence?" she said, stressing that the bill does not take "any weapons away from anybody" but would ban future purchases.
Republicans, though, described the legislation -- which comes nearly a decade after the last assault-weapons ban expired -- as an ineffective response to a genuine problem.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., noted that so-called assault weapons are used in a scant percentage of murders every year and said a ban would merely provide a "false sense of safety."

When my wife and I decided to cap off a family vacation in London
last year with a return trip to the States via trans-Atlantic cruise to New York, we had a few concerns:
It would be eight days aboard ship with no stops; it would be fall, with the chance there would be few other families with kids; and it could be crowded.
But a good friend, Lisa Safran (aka My Cruise Doctor), who has been on 178 cruises to 78 countries, had just the way to alleviate our worry. She booked us on Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Seas, which at the time was under construction and billed as the world's first "smart ship." When completed, it would have its own satellite network for global tracking and onboard high-speed Wi-Fi service.
The maiden voyage was scheduled for departure Nov. 2 from Southampton – an opportunity we couldn't pass up. Since our cruise, Royal Caribbean launched a sister ship in April, Anthem of the Seas, and is scheduled to premiere a third mega ship in the Quantum class, Ovation of the Seas, in 2016.
Ultimately, our experience was better than expected. The vessel is so massive – 1,141 feet long and 136 feet tall – we never felt crowded, and there were plenty of things to do for passengers of all ages.
Our cruise even ended with a New Year's Eve-style party on the upper deck at the crack of dawn as we entered New York Harbor in front of the Statue of Liberty. Patriotic songs blared over the sound system and media helicopters circled the ship to broadcast our arrival. It was truly an experience of a lifetime.
Here are the highlights:
ID wristbands
The most convenient feature on the ship is the rubber ID wristband each passenger receives. It contains a microchip that links to the passenger's cruise account, serving as ID, credit card and room key all in one. As long as the band was on my wrist, life on the ship was virtually hassle-free. For the first time, no one in our family lost the room key.
When we first read about this ship that boasted high-speed Internet service, we were concerned: If anything, we wanted to get away from our smartphones and could only imagine a shipload of passengers wandering around glued to their screens. Especially our two teenagers.
Turns out, the Internet service was just pricey enough and slow enough to thwart our temptations to stay connected, except for two emergencies back home and a Skype with friends. Plus one freelance job and a few emails.
Dining experience
Dining on the Quantum is nothing like a traditional cruise. Billed as a "dynamic dining" experience, Quantum passengers can customize their dining schedule by booking reservations online to any of the ship's 21 restaurants.
Quantum's Internet service allowed us to book reservations (or view our account) from the flat screen in our cabin, or at one of several touch-screen monitors throughout the ship. Some passengers even booked their reservations weeks before the cruise. And if we were in the mood to dine with other passengers, we could book at open tables as well.
With so many restaurants, we could always book a table, even if it was at the last minute. From fast food to complimentary dining to high-class specialty dining for reasonable prices, every option was available to suit our preference.
On past cruises, the stateroom was always the last place I wanted to be. Unless we were willing to pay extra, our rooms on previous cruises tended to be cramped, with small windows, if any.
On Quantum, all staterooms feature a sleek, Scandinavian-style design with top-grade beds and linens. Large HD flat-screen TVs come with all the entertainment you could want.
All exterior rooms have walk-out balconies, which was a free upgrade for us since we had booked so early. But even the interior rooms come with "virtual balconies" – a video wall with live footage streamed from water-facing spots around the ship. So, technically, every cabin on the ship has a view.

Listen to Rancid Radio on iHeartRadio
Punk rock icons Rancid are back with their first new album in five years. Honor Is All We Know is set to hit stores on October 27th. But in the meantime, the group is offering fans a taste of things to come with a performance video featuring three new songs - "Collision Course," "Evil's My Friend," and the new album's title track.
Honor Is All We Know serves as Rancid's follow-up to 2009's Let the Dominoes Fall. They say their eighth studio effort is "filled with growing insight of a band who has been doing this for a while now."

The Future of Community Gardens in DC and Beyond
The last week of August was proclaimed Community Gardening Week by USDA Sec. Vilsack, and the new People's Garden project outside the USDA headquarters fronting on the National Mall was a perfect place to discuss community garden in the greater DC-area and take a long at its future. I joined a local farmer and USDA staff to talk about growing tomatoes, maximizing your harvest, and community gardening.
At Washington Gardener Magazine, we are seeing the requests for community garden plot space double each year. We see this trend generated not so much by economics as it is by a desire to be able to be in touch with the Earth and living a more simple, sustainable life-style. Going a step beyond buying local or organic, gardeners that grow their own food have complete control of its production and feel a real sense of accomplishment.
Land use issues are prohibiting many potential gardeners from growing where they live. From Home Owner Associations to small town ordinances, folks are fighting rules that prohibit front yard edible gardens. Many must turn to community garden plots to provide needed growing space. Those in apartments, rental homes, in shady older neighborhoods, etc. are also seeking out community garden plots to grow in.
In a related trend, urban land owners are offering their un-used yards to neighbors who want to grow, but may not have the space. Web sites that match landowners with potential gardeners are springing up in cities across the nation. Many ask for a small share of what is grown in exchange for the land use. This is a win-win for everyone
One new trend in community garden is combining plots and working them together to share the harvest. Instead of each gardener having their own small area, they pool the land and decide as a group what will be grown that season.
Another new trend is urban farming. In which a group buys up a piece of unused land with the express purpose of growing edibles and dividing up the produce among the share-holders. Sometimes they sell the excess produce at local farmer's markets or grow for an express purpose such as a food bank donation.
School gardens are an expanding trend. Many schools use gardens for teaching science, math, art, etc. and now they are growing food in them to supplement what children are eating in their cafeterias. Colleges are also jumping in by allowing students to set aside a portion of their campuses for community gardens.
All of these community garden trends are converging and the result is that more Americans are gardening. Learning about food, and eating what they grow.

Nice post, Kathy. I hope community gardening is a trend that continues to grow. I love having my own yard, but do miss the community aspect of gardening in a shared space.
I think the White House vegetable garden has given a boost to the community gardening idea. Nice to read in the Post about Michelle Obama digging sweet potatoes with school kids!
