The Benedictine University Housing Agreement is contained within the online housing application. By completing an application for housing, a student is made aware of the terms and conditions associated with residential living, and the student provides consent to the terms and conditions as part of that process.The following terms regarding residents and their rooms should be emphasized:
Residence Life Procedures
Student Room Guidelines
Community Responsibilities
Theft/Damage/Weapons Policies
Issues Related To Alcohol & Drug Use
Students' Rights
Since a residence hall is made up of a group of individuals in a "living-learning environment", each person possesses certain rights which must be held in high regard. Mutual respect and consideration coupled with an awareness of and a sensitivity to the needs of other individuals must be the standard for group living. This statement is intended to suggest minimal expectations of rights of hall residents, in actualizing their freedom, without placing constraints upon such rights of other residents. The following is offered as a framework for discussion and consideration:
Student Responsibilities
In line with any other system of rights is the responsibility, then, to not infringe and violate others' rights. Thus, in accordance with the aforementioned rights come the following responsibilities.
Housing and Meal Plan Refund Policy
Balance of housing and meal plan fees per semester, upon withdrawal from housing:
Other Housing Charges:
Room changes are subject to a fee after the fourth week of classes. A $100 fee for Founders' Woods Apartment rooms and a $50 fee for Residence Hall rooms. Room changes are only permitted on the dates specified by the Residence Life Office.
A cancellation fee will be charged to residents if an exemption is requested from their housing contract. A $300 fee for Founders' Woods and a $200 fee for Residence Hall housing.
Student ID
The ID Card system at Benedictine University plays an integral role in the safety and security of the students who live on campus. Each student's ID allows them access to their residence hall only. Students are responsible for their individual IDs and the loaning of a student's ID is strictly prohibited and may be followed up with severe sanctions due the fact that other students' safety has been compromised. If a student loses their ID, they are responsible for contacting Campus Police to purchase a new ID card for $50 and have their old card deactivated.
Important Dates and TimesFall Move-in
Residence Life staff members are available to check residents into their rooms. Along with receiving keys, residents are required to sign a Room Condition Form. (This involves reviewing the room and noting on the form any details regarding the condition of the room. It is important to fill out the form thoroughly, as the resident may be held responsible for any damage other than normal wear and tear not recorded on the check-in portion of the form.) The resident is responsible for the room and its contents and signing the Room Condition Form indicates the resident is in agreement with the information recorded. This responsibility for the room extends to any damage done by guests or as a result of chances taken by the residents; such as leaving the room unlocked and unattended.
Move Out Procedure
When a student moves out of the apartments or residence halls, whether at the end of a term or during the year, an appointment for checkout must be made with the RA. At this time, the checkout section of the room condition report must be completed. Again, the resident indicates agreement with the information listed on the form by signing the checkout line. Keys should not be left with another student. At the end of the academic year, each student must checkout within 24 hours of his/her last final exam. Students must have all of their belongings removed from the room prior to the scheduled checkout appointment with the RA. Failure to observe the checkout procedures will result in a $150 fine. Students who have withdrawn from the University or who have been asked to leave for disciplinary reasons must follow proper checkout procedures and leave within 48 hours (or earlier, if specified).
Break Periods
Only Founders' Woods residents are permitted to stay in their assigned apartments during Thanksgiving, Holiday, and Spring Breaks. However, residents are expected to abide by all university/residence hall policies, as well as state and federal laws.
Housing Assignments
Incoming students are assigned to rooms based on their housing preference form submitted prior to the start of the academic year. Specific instructions are distributed to all returning residents in the spring. In order to make arrangements for housing, a student must have housing priority until the first of May for the following year. After May 1, housing priority is given to new incoming students.
Although the Office of Residence Life will work to accommodate students' requests for specific rooms, an approved housing contract only assures a student a space in the halls. The Office of Residence Life reserves the right to move any student, if needed, to a different, but comparable space.
Temporary Relocation
Role of Residence Life and Facilities
When maintenance, repairs and/or health and safety issues require the temporary relocation of a student, the University, through the Offices of Residence Life and Facilities Management, will make every effort to do the following:
If the University is able to provide a substantially similar space on campus for circumstances covered by the Housing Agreement, no form of compensation, billing adjustment, inconvenience fee or other benefit will be provided to the student.
When Substantially Similar Housing is Not Available:
If the University is unable to identify substantially similar space that is available at the time of the necessary repair, one or more of the following courses of action will be discussed with the resident:
1. If available, the student may be offered an upgraded temporary location at the same rate as the student's regular assignment. For example:
- If an Ondrak resident cannot be accommodated in another space within the facility, but there is space available in an apartment in Founders Woods, the resident may be offered a temporary assignment to the available apartment.
- If a resident of a four bedroom apartment cannot be accommodated in another four bedroom unit, but space is available in a two bedroom apartment, the student may be offered a temporary assignment in that space, provided that no more than two students reside in the unit at that time.
2. If the only space in campus housing available at the time of the displacement is considered a downgrade from the student's assigned space, the student will be offered a temporary assignment in that space with a reduction in billing to reflect the rate difference for the period of the temporary relocation, or as close as such an arrangement can be made. For example:
- A resident of Founders Woods cannot be accommodated in another apartment within the Founders Woods community, but is accommodated in Ondrak Hall for a period of five days. A billing adjustment would be made to reflect the difference in cost between the per diem Founders Woods rate and the double occupancy rate of Ondrak Hall for five days.
- Residents of a four bedroom apartment in Founders Woods are temporarily accommodated with double occupancy in a two bedroom apartment for seven days. A billing adjustment would be made to reflect the difference in the cost between the per diem Founders Woods rate and the rate of double occupancy of Neuzil Hall for the seven day period.
In cases where a student may be temporarily relocated from an apartment with kitchen facilities to a residence hall where no meal preparation facilities are available, the University may provide the student with additional meals through Dining Services at the rate of two meals per day. No additional adjustments will be made to the student's account.
3. If the University is unable to accommodate a student anywhere in campus housing due to availability of gender-appropriate facilities, the student may be offered a room at a local hotel for a time period associated with the repair, the arrangements for and the cost of which is covered by the University. The period of the hotel stay will be evaluated based upon facts and circumstances of the repair. The University may provide the student with additional meals through Dining Services at the rate of two meals per day. If the hotel provides courtesy transportation, the University will assist students in working with the hotel to arrange for reasonable transportation accommodations. However, the University will not reimburse a student for the cost of mileage for travel between the university and the hotel during the stay, meals taken at the hotel or incidental expenses (including room service, mini bar expenses, pay-per-view movies or personal services) that are not included in the regular room rate.
Note:The University reserves the right to identify options other than those listed above as circumstances merit.
Student Refusal of Housing Options:
The duty of the University is to provide a substantially similar housing arrangement or provide an alternative option in the event that substantially similar housing is not available. If a student is offered a temporary housing accommodation, but either denies the options offered or states a preference to commute from home or make an alternative housing arrangement, the student may not request and will not be provided any form for compensation in exchange for denying the temporary housing assignment.
Student Appeals:
Only students who have been directly impacted by the provisions of this policy may submit an appeal of any term or condition specified herein. Appeals must be submitted in writing to the Financial Appeals Committee at email@example.com. The University will proceed with completing required maintenance or repairs regardless of the student's intention to appeal.
Statement of Student Rights and Responsibilities
During Temporary Housing Assignment
The University maintains the right to temporarily relocate residents for the purpose of conducting maintenance, repairs or in instances where health and safety issues require temporary relocation. When a temporary relocation is necessary, however, the University is committed to minimizing the impact of the relocation.
Student's Rights:
Student Responsibilities:
- Requiring the student not to enter the space during the repair process unless accompanied by a member of University Police and/or Residence Life staff.
- Refraining from interfering with the maintenance or repair work being conducted in any way.
- Acknowledging receipt of any updates or other information provided by Facilities Management or Residence Life.
Staff Right To Enter
The Benedictine University Housing Agreement is contained within the online housing application. By completing an application for housing, a student is made aware of the terms and conditions associated with residential living, and the student provides consent to the terms and conditions as part of that process.
The residence halls and apartment buildings used for campus housing are under the direct and ongoing control of the University, and the University maintains the right at all times to conduct routine inspections, to perform requested repairs and preventative maintenance and to respond to emergency situations with or without the presence of the resident(s). The relevant language of the Housing Agreement states:
I. Upkeep
C. The University, its officers, employees and agents shall have the right to enter upon said assigned premises at reasonable times for the purpose of inspection and repair, preservation of health, safety and quietude and recovery of University-owned property.
Circumstances Requiring Entry by Staff:
University staff and/or agents working under their direction (including specialists in building trades, repairs and extermination)may need to enter residence rooms and apartments in any of the following circumstances:
1. Inspection: Visual inspections of physical space, mechanical elements, university-owned furniture, appliances and fixtures are considered routine, preventative measures and may occur periodically throughout the year. The purpose of such inspections is to ensure that students maintain their living space in a clean, sanitary and orderly manner to ensure the health and safety of residents and the protection of University-owned property. Inspections may be conducted by either Residence Life and/or Facilities Management staff, depending upon the nature and purpose of the inspection.
During periods of occupancy, Residence Life will provide residents with advance notice of scheduled inspections, including inspections that may occur during holiday breaks, via electronic communication. Such communication constitutes constructive notice of inspections. The University reserves the right to enter student rooms or apartments to complete inspections with or without students present when prior notice has been given.
The University reserves the right to conduct inspections of individual rooms or apartments on a non-scheduled basis for health and safety purposes when there is reason to believe that either the physical space or resident conduct creates a hazard or potential harm to residents or university-owned property. Typically, 24-hour notice will be given to residents of these inspections, unless the risk to property or health is considered imminent, constituting an emergency. (See below.)
2. Requested Repairs: Repairs and/or replacement of university-owned property are routinely performed in response to work orders submitted at the request of a resident or by a member of the Resident Assistant or professional staff.
For purposes of this policy, the submission of a work order constitutes student permission to enter the space for the purpose of attending to the request. Work orders will be completed as staff and circumstances allow. Facilities Management reserves the right to access a resident's room or apartment to complete the work order with or without students present.
3. Routine Maintenance: Routine maintenance includes work that is systematically performed throughout a residential community during periods of resident occupancy. An example of routine maintenance is the replacement of filters in HVAC units.
For purposes of this policy, routine maintenance is treated in a manner similar to scheduled inspections. Residence Life will provide residents with advance notice of routine maintenance, including work that may occur during holiday breaks, via electronic communication. Such communication constitutes constructive notice of the completion of routine maintenance. The University reserves the right to enter student rooms or apartments to complete routine maintenance with or without students present when prior notice has been given.
4. Emergency Repairs/Circumstances: To protect university and/or students' personal property, ensure the health and safety of residents or to silence a disruptive noise, the University reserves the right to enter occupied rooms or apartments to attend to emergencies, with or without students present and without prior notice.
When possible, once the emergency has passed residents who are not present at the time of the emergency will be notified by University personnel from either University Police, Facilities Management or Residence Life.
Scheduling of Repairs or Maintenance:
The completion of requested repairs and routine maintenance work is typically performed on weekdays between 8:00AM and 5:00PM, depending upon the availability of those whose skills are needed to complete the task. Whenever possible, the onset of work in Jaeger Hall will be delayed until 10:00AM to allow for privacy for female residents. If work needs to begin prior to that time, Jaeger residents will be notified so that they can make adjustments in their morning routine.
Student Responsibilities:
In both routine and emergency circumstances, students have the duty to allow the completion of the required repair or maintenance work to take place in a timely manner and without interference. Specifically, student responsibilities include:
· Checking university email on a regular basis for official University communications which may include information about inspections and routine maintenance
· Demonstrating compliance with expectations of cleanliness, food storage, trash removal, treatment of university owned property, instructions related to heating and air units and standards related to fire code, local ordinances and state and federal law
· Securing personal items of value prior to the completion of an inspection or routine maintenance work
· If present at the time of a repair, providing reasonable access to the area where a repair is to occur, including the removal of personal belongings, to allow for the maintenance or repair work to be completed efficiently
· Accurately responding to questions raised by Facilities Management staff or others working under their supervision
· Acknowledging instructions given and recommendations made by University personnel and/or their agents during or after the completion of the maintenance work or repair
University Responsibilities
University officials are responsible to students in the following ways:
· Residence Life will communicate with residents in advance of any scheduled inspections and routine maintenance, providing a minimum 72 hour notice of such work.
· When arriving at a resident room or apartment to perform inspections, routine maintenance work or requested repairs, Facilities Management and/or Residence Life staff will knock on the door, announce themselves and wait for a resident to answer. After a reasonable delay, the staff member may key into the resident room or apartment.
· Facilities Management staff will be identifiable by apparel and Benedictine University ID. Vendors and agents working under the supervision of Facilities Management will be identified by guest identification containing an effective date.
· While in a resident's space, Facilities Management and/or Residence Life staff or their agents will make a good faith effort not to disturb residents' personal property or any area not impacted by the inspection, maintenance or repair.
· Facilities Management staff or their agents will leave the space in a reasonably clean condition and will secure the room or apartment upon completion of the work.
Student Grievance:
Students who feel that a University staff member or someone performing work under supervision of a staff member has unnecessarily or inappropriately entered or accessed their assigned space should notify their RA or a member of the Residence Life staff or they may complete an official Student Complaint Form available at http://www.ben.edu/student-life/student_complaint_form.cfm.
Eligibility for Housing
Only full-time students (at least 12 credit-hours for undergraduates and 6 credit-hours for graduates) at Benedictine University may live in campus housing. Students may be denied housing for appropriate reasons as determined by the Office of Residence Life.
Room Changes in the Residence Halls and Founders' Woods Apartments
There are instances when roommates come in conflict with one another. When this occurs, the Residence Life staff will help students work through their difficulties and explore solutions such as mediation, compromise or roommate agreements. Residents must approach their RA to mediate the conflict before any other option is considered. If no solution is reached after extensive effort on the part of the roommates and staff, a room change may be considered. All room changes will originate with the Office of Residence Life.
No room changes will take place until after the two week freeze period at the beginning of the semester. Unauthorized room changes, for any reason, will result in a $100 fine for residents of Founders' Woods and a $50 fine for Residence Hall residents, the student will then be required to move back to his/her original room. Room changes based upon race, color, age, religion, sexual orientation, national origin or disability will not be approved. Room changes after the fourth week of the semester are subject to a $100 fee if living in Founders' Woods and a $50 fee for all other Residence Halls.
Injury or Illness
Any accidents occurring in the residence halls resulting in injury should be reported to the RA or the Area Coordinator; who may, depending on the circumstances, assist the person in obtaining medical treatment and notifying appropriate family and/or University personnel. An accident report will be filled out by the University agent. Any medical emergencies or extended illnesses should also be reported to the Office of Residence Life. Arrangements may be made with the Food Service director to obtain a sick tray for a resident confined to his/her room. Residents are ultimately responsible for their own health care.
Locks and Keys
All residents, upon check-in to their assigned space, are issued a room key, which locks both the resident's main door and the bedroom door, and a mailbox key. A charge will be assessed if the keys are lost or not returned at the announced deadline. Residents must notify the Luba Baranivsky within 48 hours of losing keys. A resident's checkout will not be considered complete until the key is returned. Duplicate keys are not permitted. Disciplinary action will be taken in this situation. Legal action may also be taken against the vendor providing the duplicate.
If a student is locked out of his/her room, Campus Police has access to a master key to open the room. Identification is required and there will be a charge for this service. Unauthorized locks may not be placed on room doors. Any change or addition of locks must be performed by Campus Services and have prior authorization by the appropriate University personnel.
Non Compliance
Students must comply with orders from University personnel at all times. Failure to do so will result in the violation of both the non-compliance policy and any suspected violations involved with non-compliance.
For the safety and protection of your personal belongings, always lock your room and apartment door before sleeping or whenever you leave your room or apartment, even if it is only for a brief period of time. Any thefts, even minor ones, should be reported promptly to a Residence Life staff member and/or Campus Police.
Fine System
A fine system shall be placed that pairs various policy violations with a monetary fine. These fines will be severe enough to have an impact on negative behaviors, but not high enough as to be unusual or prohibitive. Please also note that providing alcohol to minors will result in addition fines. While the monies can be used for various projects, they must be used to better the lives of on-campus students and/or the mission of Residence Life. The following is a list of incidents and fines:
Underage consumption/possession of alcohol: $100 fine for each offense. After the third offense, there will be a physical arrest. All alcohol incidents will involve a meeting with Residence Life staff. This meeting is an effort to help curb behaviors that may be considered hurtful, unhealthy, and/or dangerous. It is at the discretion of the Office of Residence Life to issue sanctions in addition to fines received.
Littering: When excessive trash is spotted outside a residence a fine will be issued. The initial fine is $10 per resident. The resident(s) will be fined $25 each day that the trash is not removed after the first fine is issued. The Office of Residence Life has the discretion to issue additional fines if deemed necessary.
Guests of the opposite gender (Jaeger and Ondrak only): If prudent, warnings will be issued and meetings will be scheduled for regular violations. Severe violations (guests staying for several 24 hours periods) will result in a $10 fine for each night to protect student costs as well as a meeting with the Residence Life staff.
Smoking: Illinois law prohibits smoking in virtually all public places and workplaces, which includes educational institutions and their properties. This includes all residence halls and Founders Woods apartment complex. If a resident is spotted smoking within 15 feet of a prohibited area, including public balconies of the Founders' apartments, a warning will be first issued. From that point the student will be charged $75 for each subsequent occurrence. If the violator is not a student, then the resident responsible for them will be fined.
Fines will be automatically assessed to the student's account.
Override Policy:
In an effort to protect these funds and the interests of the students, should the monies be assigned to a project that is viewed to violate the mission of Residence Life or is believed to be misused in other forms, an unanimous override vote can take place from the Assistant Vice-President of Student Life, Associate Dean Area Coordinator(s) of Residence Life.
Annoying or Harassing Phone Calls
Any calls of an obscene or nuisance nature should be reported to the Residence Life staff. The Office of Residence Life, with the assistance of Campus Police, can arrange to have incoming calls screened as they come in. If the calls persist or are threatening, Campus Police should become involved.
Room Furnishings
All room furnishings (furniture including, but not limited to beds, tables, desks, chairs, and couches) provided by the University must remain in the residents' assigned room. Beds are provided by the University. Lofts are not permitted. Pressure system bunk beds may not be used. Waterbeds are not permitted in resident rooms because of the possible damages from leaks or flooding. If any furniture is removed from the apartment, is found missing, damaged or placed out on apartment balconies, the resident will be charged for the entire piece of furniture and may also be subject to disciplinary action.
Pets, other than fish in an aquarium, are not allowed to visit or reside in Residence Halls or Founders' Woods apartments because of health and nuisance problems. Fish aquariums may not exceed 10 gallons. If any unauthorized pets are found and/or are not removed resident may be subject to a fine and/or disciplinary action.
Illegal Appliances
For fire safety halogen lamps, toasters, hot plates and any other open coil appliances are not permitted in any of the Residence Halls.
Only Halogen lamps are not permitted in Founders' Woods apartments due to the high risk of room fires.
Candles and Incense
These items are not permitted in any of the Residence Halls and Founders' Woods apartment. Open flames are fire hazards. Many students have allergic reactions to incense.
Antennas are prohibited outside the windows of the Founders' Woods apartments. Radio transmissions from rooms are also prohibited.
Windows and Screens
Window screens may not be removed and must cover the windows at all times. For safety reasons, residents may not lean out of the windows or sit on window ledges. Removal of the window screen and/or throwing items from windows will result in a fine and/or appropriate disciplinary action. The removal of window screens will result in a $200 fine. Windows are not to be opened when the air conditioning is operating.
Students may not use windows to exit or access their rooms
Displays in windows which are deemed inappropriate and not removed by the resident(s) will be removed by the Residence Life staff.
Throwing objects from windows may result in terminating your housing contract.
Residents may not leave personal belongings during the summer months. The University does not have facilities to store student property. Please make the necessary arrangements to remove all of your belongings before the time of checkout. Personal belongings left behind will be discarded after 72 hours of the official checkout date. Students found in violation of this policy will be charged $200 for the removal of their belongings.
Decorations to help personalize your living space are encouraged so long as they are in good taste and are not considered a safety hazard. The Residence Life staff reserves the right to ask students to remove decorations deemed offensive, unsafe or as viewed as damaging to University Property.
Adhesives may be used to attach decorations as long as they can be fully removed when the resident moves out without damaging walls.
Students should be cautious when placing items on room and/ apartment main doors and ceilings because they might present a fire hazard or remove the finish.
Decorations on room doors and windows should also be in good taste (i.e. not lewd, indecent or obscene).
Guest Responsibilities
Guests are permitted so long as they conform to the visitation policy and roommates agree that the frequency and duration of the visits is acceptable.
A resident may host an infrequent and occasional overnight guest (The Office of Residence Life reserves the right to define "infrequent and occasional"), provided that such does not interfere with the rights of the roommate and does not violate the visitation policy (i.e. Jaeger and Ondrak cannot have overnight guests of the opposite sex). Residents must walk their guest to the Campus Police department and register their guest for purposes of campus and guest safety. Guests may not stay longer than two nights in a row. Guest registrations must be completed before 10 p.m. on the first night the guest is staying. The host is responsible for the observance of University housing policies and the behavior of their guest at all times. The guest must be in the presence of the host at all times.
In the case of a disciplinary issue, action will be taken against the host if the guest is a non-Benedictine student. Guests are discouraged during the week due to the inconvenience to roommates and other residents.
Residence hall guests are expected to sign in at the Campus Police department. Guests who have not signed in and/or are unescorted in the building will be subject to detainment and identification. Consideration for privacy and rights of roommates and other residents must be respected. A resident may have up to three guests visit his/her assigned room at any one time.
Cohabitation is defined as an un-wed person physically living with someone of the opposite gender; it does not matter whether either party is a student or a non-student. Benedictine University does not support cohabitation and thus it is not allowed within the residence halls or Founders' Woods.
Founders' Woods residents have the privilege of observing 24-hour visitation, so long as courtesy is used when in contact with roommates and other residents and all University policies and State and Federal laws are abided.
Quiet Hours
In an effort to reduce the amount of noise, specific minimum quiet hours have been established. These quiet hours are in effect for all Resident Halls as well Founders Woods.
Quiet hours should be observed from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. on weekdays (Sunday through Thursday) and 12:00 a.m. until 8:00 a.m. on weekends (Friday and Saturday).
Courtesy hours are in effect at all times.
Noise to an excessive degree at any time of the day is a serious offense in a building where others might require quiet for study or sleep.
Stereos, radios, televisions, musical instruments and conversations should be kept at levels that will not interfere with other residents.
Amplifiers and loud musical instruments may not be used in student rooms.
If you encounter a noise problem, ask the responsible parties to be quiet. If they persist and/or are unresponsive to your requests, contact your RA, the Residence Life staff member on duty, or Campus Police.
Repeated noise violations might result in loss of the privilege to use equipment and/or other disciplinary action.
Any games or sports (including, but not limited to, bouncing basketballs, throwing Frisbees or balls, golfing, using skateboards, roller blades, bicycles or skates) are prohibited in the halls because they may pose a safety hazard or cause excessive noise. Recreational activities outside of the halls should be done at a distance far enough to eliminate the possibility of breaking windows or in appropriate areas where there will be no damage done to any other University property (ex: golfing will leave divots in the grass)
Bicycles may not be stored in common areas (sidewalks, under stairs, etc.) of the apartments. Students are encouraged to take bicycles home during the inclement winter months. Under no circumstances may bicycles be chained to stairwells or be stored in hallways, stairwells, etc. Such violations will lead to immediate impounding of the bicycle and possible disciplinary action.
Motorbikes or Motorcycles
Motorbikes or motorcycles may not be brought into or stored near the apartment buildings. Motorcycles are considered motor vehicles and may be operated only on campus roads, not on sidewalks or other areas normally used by pedestrians. Motor vehicles need to be registered with the University Police department and parked in parking lot areas only.
Littering from, in, or around the apartments will not be tolerated as it destroys the appearance of our campus and can create a health hazard. Littering carries with it an automatic fine and the possibility of disciplinary actions, including the possibility of removal from on-campus housing.
Common Area Damage
Common area (including, but not limited to, the hallways, laundry rooms, lounges of the residence halls, the living room, kitchen, bathrooms, and balcony) damage is the responsibility of all residents in the apartment or residence hall. Prevention is the first step and all residents are urged to be aware of the happenings within their apartment or residence hall. Be alert to intruders or residents who may damage your apartment or residence hall. When damage occurs in common areas of your apartment or residence hall, the individual responsible will be billed for the cost of repairs. If the damage is the result of an act of vandalism, the person responsible might also be assessed a fine and/or be subject to additional disciplinary action, including removal from on-campus housing. If the University is unable to determine who is responsible for the damage, the residents sharing the common area will be billed for the repairs.
The procedure will be as follows:
When damage is discovered, the Area Coordinator will issue a verbal or written notice to the residents describing the problem.
The residents will then have 72 hours to identify the person(s) responsible. If, at the end of the 72-hour period, no responsible party has been identified, the cost of repairs and/or replacement will be assessed appropriately among the population affected.
All residents will receive a notice of the amount due. Charges will be applied to the resident's bill and are payable in Benedictine Central.
If, at some point in the future, the responsible party is identified, the resident will be asked to provide restitution to those residents who were charged for the damage.
Solicitation is not permitted. Salespeople and representatives of religious or political groups are not allowed without specific permission of the person they are coming to see. No resident may use a room as a base for any personal business, including serving as an agent for any line of products. Any advertisement for a product or event outside the University must be sent though U.S. mail and be addressed individually to each resident.
Bulletin Boards
While it is highly desirable to obtain maximum publicity for campus events, materials should be posted in a manner as to be pleasing and effective as communication items, and must be posted in appropriate locations. All announcements should be submitted to the Director of Residence Life for approval before being posted, and may be placed only on bulletin boards authorized for such use. For policies covering posting, please see the Student Handbook. If any items posted by Residence Life staff are torn down or damaged, a fine will be issued to the responsible parties.
Personal Property
The University shall not be liable, directly or indirectly, for any loss of personal property by theft, vandalism or mischief to students or their guests, or for the damage or destruction of such property by fire, water or any other cause.* All incidents of personal loss should be reported to Campus Police. Theft does occur. Valuables and large sums of money should be protected by the owner. Residents are encouraged to keep their apartment door and bedroom door locked at all times when there is no one present.

I don't know about your child, but mine (and most of his friends) LOVE picking up rocks. Here is a way to get the rocks out of your house and also refurbish them to make a creative and fun Valentine's Day gift!
Homemade Valentines-Be My Love Bug
Paint (red, black, and white)
Printed label
1. Locate a roundish rock and paint the top of it red.
2. Then using black paint create the ladybug's head and spots.
3. Using white paint, add eyes and other desired details.
4. Put the ladybug and other Valentine's trinkets inside the bag and seal it with the sign "Won't You Be My Lovebug?"
If you're looking for a reading connection with this craft, there are a TON of wonderful Valentine's Day books that you can read with your child! Here are some of my favorites:

Mt. Kilimanjaro stands 5895 meters above Tasmania. Not only is it the highest point on the African continent, it crosses five climate zones while offering up scree fields, glaciers, snow and ice. To hike it is the adventure of a lifetime – to downhill mountain bike makes you one among billions. American businessman and mountain biker Doug Pitt had just that adventure. With a few friends, he completed what is without a doubt the most incredible hike-and-bike ever attempted, summiting Kilimanjaro over 5 days before taking one blisteringly fast ride down. Even better? This was done in the name of raising $250,000 for clean water and sanitation projects in Africa through Pitt's charity organization, World Serve International. Best yet? It was through Pitt's charity work that the Kilimanjaro mountain bike ride even became possible – the park is normally off limits to bikes. But the group received a special governmental pardon specifically for the ride.
So how well suited is Kilimanjaro, one of the world's seven peaks, for mountain biking? Not particularly. Pitt fills us in. "We summited up the Rongai route and the bike ride was down the Marangu route. Marangu is the most traveled route and less scenic in my opinion but the only route that is even remotely rideable. There is only one path so it is what it is. After you get through the scree fields, it is fast and furious. But where can you literally have MTB downhill runs that are miles in length? Kili offered that in stretches and was some of the most fun I have had biking."
How did the bikers prepare for and execute a completely unknown ride where scouting opportunities were few? "We discussed extra protective gear but ended up with just our regular kits. It's not that it was a lot more dangerous, it was how far professional medical help was away. There was an ER doc with serious MTB skills anchoring the trip. Our plan was "skill -1". That meant, ride your skill level and take it down one notch to prevent injuries. Great in theory but awful in execution – we are experiencing one of the most epic rides in the world and a few trips over the handlebars painfully demonstrated that we were there to ride and have fun."
So how terrifying was it? Scary - but not enough to slow down Pitt or his friends. "There are some sketchy spots that if you get off the trail, you're dead. Mountain bikes don't always go where you want them and being sleep deprived, loopy at 19,000 feet, and achy, there were moments where I had to have a talk with myself and decide to walk the bike. It looked fun through these sections and I wanted to roll them, but knew I was not working at 100% and the stakes were too high." Of course, that doesn't mean that they held back all the time. There were plenty of wipeouts. "Myself and others had several crashes from the summit to the bottom. But only one really knocked me silly. I went over the handlebars carrying the bike with me, landing in the sage and rocks," says Pitt. "My helmet has a nice dent from a softball sized rock. But the whole group survived in pretty good fashion – one shin that needed 8 stitches and another rider that suffered a small fracture to a shoulder from a crash just a mile from the gate."
So what's next for Pitt? More rides and more charity. "Everything I do is a fundraiser so we are looking for an event that an earning potential," says Pitt. "My focus is usually Africa but in having done Kilimanjaro which is one of the 7 Summits of the World, we are exploring the other 6 and seeing if even portions could be ridden."

Interesting wine, in a good way. Smells of honeycomb, spice, sweat, dried herbs and rich dark berries. Medium bodied, rich fleshy texture with plump tannin, plum, dried cherry and sarsaparilla flavours, clean acidity and a savoury and fruit sweet finish of good length.
Delicious. Load up. 90 Points Winefront.com.au

"It's French, it's bubbly, it's under $20 and it's a whole lot of fun. In many ways, there's no need to say anything more. It's musky and lemony, alive with fluffy bubbles and flavoursome enough. I know it's a blanc de blancs but I saw some Turkish delight characters in it; though that said, I drank a bit too much of this a bit too quickly, so maybe my judgement was impaired. It's that kind of wine. Buy." By Campbell Mattinson; The Wine FrontLearn More
Regular Price: $18.99
Special Price: $17.50As low as: $17.00
Fine and polished nose - floral, figgy and gently meaty, it's a delicate and perfectly varietal expression of Monastrell. Soft, wide tannins start the mouth off and a long rip of ripe acid in the back half really straightens things out. Almuvedre has long been one of the bargain wines of the world and the style-quality-value amalgam continues to boggle the mind. Now in screwcap!Learn More
Regular Price: $14.00
Special Price: $13.50As low as: $13.00
It's medium bodied, peppery and meaty, with bramble fruit of subtle sweetness and the perfume of wild scrub herbs. Tannin is light and gently chalky, acidity is well played and the finish is pretty long and fresh.
Lovely to drink. Gulp even. 90 points Winefront..com.au
Regular Price: $20.00
Special Price: $19.00As low as: $17.99
Nice wine this – feels like essence of Hunter Valley Shiraz. Medium bodied with savoury tannins drawling through the wine. Offers up red fruits, dustiness but not too much, and light, washy acidity keeps things fresh. It might lack some stuffing but it's pitch-perfect as an example of Hunter and drinkability with savouriness. Crunch and chew in the finish lends a hand.
Better than you think. 91 points Winefront.com.au
Regular Price: $20.00
Special Price: $19.00As low as: $17.99
Peach, mixed citrus, gentle vanilla and cedar oak and some wheatgerm.Medium bodied, juicy fruit, but with some restraint, limey acidity offset with a dab of cream and almond. Good length. Acid freshens the aftertaste, but does not twang.
This is nicely done: meets the modern and traditional schools of Hunter Chardonnay in the middle playground. 90 points Winefront.com.au"
.....You can smell the perfect ripeness from first whiff, with banana oak and yeast characters over a surprisingly taut palate. It's not particularly complex, and there's a little warmth on the finish, but otherwise it's just a lovely Chard for anyone into the more medium bodied, mod-Hunter style.
For $20 this is Goldilocks Chardonnay. Score: 17.7/20, 92/100
Would I buy it? Yes. This would be a shining star on an pub wine list. Andrew Graham Australian Wine Review

The perfume gives you a hint, in a way, with cinnamon and earth-dusted ripe red fruit character and a hint of dried herbs. Ripe and generous as the fruit is, it's a compelling drink, layered in flavour and generous without being overbearing. It finishes with a dusty lick of pucker and a tickle of briny acidity. It's lovely to drink, but structurally is quite loose-knit.
Enjoyable. 92 points Winefront.com.au
Regular Price: $13.99
Special Price: $12.50
Meaty, smoky approach. Clean and savoury yet hit with good fruit too. Dry licorice. Spicy finish. Clean, unforced, tangy length. Brilliant value, all things considered. You could take this anywhere. And that, really, is the raison d'etre of this brand. 88 points WInefront.com.auLearn More
Regular Price: $13.99
Special Price: $12.50
It's actually added sauvignon blanc to the front label (and of course to the wine). The style of this wine is to be applauded. It's just so dry and briny. And textural. It impresses by understatement as much as anything. Crisp and fresh, sure, with herb and brine flavours the main players. There's a musky note to the finish, which is well sustained. Great seafood style. 90 points Winefront.com.auLearn More

Special Price: $20.00As low as: $19.99
If you're of a certain persuasion, it would be hard to imagine a better, more interesting, more delicious wine to drink at its price point than this. Blackcurrant, mulberry and its leaves, violets, raspberry, spice box and polished wood. It's medium bodied, with silky fine grained tannin, bright punchy fruit, and a leafy but succulent finish of excellent length, perhaps finished off with a dusting of white pepper.
Such a delight to drink." Rated : 93 Points Winefront.com.au
Regular Price: $26.00
Special Price: $24.50
A blend of four vineyards - vineyards are divided into lots that are harvested at different times. Ripe plum fruit flavors and silky texture. Dark fruit character, dense mid-palate and pepper notes. Black cherry aromas and excellent structure. Explosive floral aromatics and full, concentrated mouthfeel.
International Wine Cellar - 91 points - Bright red-ruby. Raspberry, licorice and fig aromas lifted by sexy oak tones. Vinous and refined on the palate, with dark raspberry, currant and fig flavors complicated by a saline nuance. Nicely balanced and not at all overly sweet. ... Finishes with firm, fine, building tannins and excellent length.
Regular Price: $19.50
Special Price: $18.50As low as: $18.00
The Catena Zapata Malbec shows a saturated dark violet color; the nose offers cassis, mocha and clove, along with a strong suggestion of soil tones. It combines density and sweetness on the one hand, with gripping flavors of tobacco, dark berries, spices and minerals; a palate-staining finish dominated by sweet black and blue fruits.Learn More
Regular Price: $16.00
Special Price: $14.99
How much flavour can you expect from a red wine at this near rock bottom price? When it comes to nero d'Avola (the black grape of Avola, a town in eastern Sicily, and the island's most widely planted variety), the answer is far more than you might expect. Sealed with a screwcap and from a good vintage, the Lamura may be made in big volumes, but it is exactly the type of spicy, soft-tannined Mediterranean red that shows the promise of modern Sicilian vino. The palate is fresh, clean, fruit driven and dryLearn More
Regular Price: $13.99
Special Price: $12.49
Good intensity here. Really fresh and perfumed. Inviting. Textural. Almost chewy. Rose petals and green apples. Stonefruity power to the mid palate. Chalky finish. Has that 'desperate for shellfish' quality. Tending towards brineyness. Perfumed aftertaste. Very good – drinking and buying. 90 points WInefront.com.auLearn More
Regular Price: $15.99
Special Price: $15.50As low as: $14.99
Youthful, bright and perfumed, this highly enjoyable Spanish red is packed with dark plum, blueberry, spice, raspberry coulis and floral notes. The palate delivers excellent fruit intensity, beautifully supported by silky texture and smooth mouthfeel. A fabulous medium-full-bodied red offering loads of tasty flavours. At its best: now to 2018. Sam Kim, wineorbit.co.nzLearn More
Regular Price: $23.00
Special Price: $20.00
Dark brick red in colour with crimson highlights. The nose is already expressive and inviting with a complex array of fresh red fruits, dried herbs, forest undergrowth and aniseed. The palate is medium to full bodied, driven by core of supple raspberry and dark plum flavours courtesy of the Barbera. Nebbiolo adds structure and length alongside fine tannins. Enjoy in its youth with a wide range of rich Italian dishes.
A 'mini' Barolo, for this price? Unbelievable ... yet true. Stock up, I have! Gavin Trott
Regular Price: $18.50
Special Price: $17.00
Decent, quaffable pinot noir for under $20? It's almost impossible to find but this terrific value import from the south of France manages it ... "the best French Pinot Noir outside of Burgundy" .... It's on the riper side of the pinot spectrum, certainly no shrinking violet, but no brash bogan either. The (French) girl next door with smoothness, dark cherry fruit flavours, hints of earthiness and plenty of length. Windsor DobbinLearn More
Regular Price: $15.00
Special Price: $13.50
Black jellybeans stuffed in leather pants, dark cherry, iron filings, damp earth, sweet dried herbs. Medium bodied, clean acidity, cherry and blackcurrant, light but grainy chalky tannin and pretty decent length. A little gamey, perhaps, but such a good drinking wine.
Recommended unconditionally. Drink now. 90 points Winefront.com.au
.... the palate is a lively mix of berries and savoury tannins with lively acidity. Not surprisingly it's easy to drink with a spicy imprint on the finish. Another impressive import with bags of bright personality that begs for food. WiningPom
Regular Price: $21.50
Special Price: $19.99As low as: $19.00
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit: 93 points - A classic Rioja showing fabulous modern fruit intensity, the complex bouquet shows dark berry, game, mixed spice and nutmeg characters, which lead to a ripe and smooth palate that delivers plenty of appealing flavours and excellent mid palate weight. The wine is supple and generous while remaining elegant and stylish. At its best now until 2018Learn More

The Horse Forum (http://www.horseforum.com/forumindex.php)
- Horse Grooming (/horse-grooming/)
- - Hoof oil? (http://www.horseforum.com/horse-grooming/hoof-oil-1824/)
Hoof oil?
Sorry if this seems a silly question, but my daughter was given a gift yestersday a 'hoof kit' inside was a hoof pick, a brush, black hoof oil, green hoof oil and green hoof gel -
What on earth do I do with it?! Im fine with the hoof pick and do our mares feet everyday, but what do I do with the oil? do i paint it on - all over the hoof including the underneath or just the top part? Do I use one product then the other, such as black oil first then the green gel ontop?
What is it supposed to do? :?
Hey that's not a silly question at all.
I know about the black oil.
You use it when you're showing such as Dressage/Hacking/Lead and other Type's.
But with some breeds such as the welsh pony they have to be left all natural in the lead ring.
Picture of Black hooves - http://www.aces.edu/fourh/RegionalSi...20Show%201.jpg
The oils. Well in Australia the oil we use is Brown/light tan colour and i apply it to the top and bottom of my horses Hooves.
I have been notified not to use it a day before the farrier comes because he/she will not trim/shoe you're horse for obvious reasons.
Hope i was some help
Thank you!
Nancy doesnt wear shoes though, and I dont do any sort of shows with her- shes just our pet horse that lives in our yard and the kids ride her - should I still use the oil? is it just to make the hooves look pretty or is it actually good for promoting strong hooves/growth etc?
it just makes them look pretty.
You also dont have to have a horse that wear's shoe's to use the black oil. I get black boot polish when i show.. (its cheaper :lol: )
But i wouldnt use it unless showing/Riding club or even pony club. In the end its up to you.
But the hoof oil that you have if its a daily one you know you can apply it once a day to keep the hoove's not brittle and stop them from splitting.
Thanks again for the advice, I did a bit of a search and the green oil & gel is a daily thing thats good for the hooves as you said to stop brittleness, and the black oil just to look pretty, Nancy is a black horse and maybe the kids would think its fun to give her a 'makeover' and paint her nails all pretty :lol:
Shes such a loving old girl she just stands there practically begging to be petted so Im sure she would enjoy the extra attention :wink:
Should I put it on the frog aswell or not?
Putting oil on the underside could actually be pretty dangerous as it could cause the horse the slip. I have also heard that it may prevent the frog from "breathing" which could cause thrush which could bring all sorts of problems!
I personally rarely get a chance to get my hands on the hoof oil (cn be quite therapeutic) as I'm scared that I will not put exactly the right shade on the horse to 'suit' him/her perfectly. Most of the helpers down the yard are female and take horse fashion very seriously.
I will never forget the argument over which horse gets which colour/style of tinsel for the Christmas makeover last year... us males quickly ducked out to do 'other jobs' pretty sharpish to avoid being dragged in!
I would advise using hoof oil only at shows. It can offset the moisture balance in the hoof and also make the nails in the hoof for the horse's shoe to slip more easily, causing you to lose a shoe.
This is the bit i dont understand - Nancy isnt shod, and we dont go to shows, so if I put the black oil on it would just be to look pretty for a bit, but the green oil and gel is supposed to be good for the hooves - so I dont know if I should start putting in on her feet or not?
Would I in those circumstances put the green oil all over her hooves including the underneath and the frog aswell? does it really actually do anything? (the green oil not the black) :?
what's the name of the product that was given for nancy?, that way we can tell what kind of oil it is, is it like hooflex ? let us know so we can direct you in the right way
Its called Lincolns Green hoof oil and green hoof gel and also a bottle of Lincolns black hoof oil, it all came together in a little zip lock type bag a bit like a make up bag - but no isntructions :lol: I guess Lincolns assume that if your going to buy hoof oil you know what to do with it lol

CBS Special: Religious Response to Haiti Earthquake
December 02, 2010
NEW YORK (UMNS) | Relief efforts given to the people of Haiti after the January 12, 2010 earthquake are highlighted in a CBS-TV religion special, "HAITI: Religion's Response to Disaster," which will begin broadcast on Sunday, December 5.
(Since stations' schedules can change, please check your local station listings to confirm broadcast information.)
After a 7.0 magnitude earthquake ravaged Haiti in January 2010, some of the first responders were religious relief organizations. These faith-based groups continue to work in Haiti, as the road to helping the country sustain itself remains a very long one.
The program looks at relief efforts begun immediately after the quake, as well as the progress currently being made in Haiti by faith-based organizations. Members of Church World Service, Catholic Relief Services, Jewish Distribution Committee, and United Methodist Committee on Relief will share stories about their work with viewers.
Burton Joseph, a humanitarian program manager at Church World Service (CWS), was born and raised in Port-au-Prince. He assists CWS with expanding rural food co-ops, getting children back to school in new buildings, and aiding those with disabilities before and after the earthquake.
While religious relief organizations worked to help the living, they often struggled to cope with the dying, with some groups mourning the deaths of their own members. Representatives from United Methodist of Relief Committee (UMCOR) were in Haiti when the earthquake hit and lost two members, Reverends Sam Dixon and Clint Rabb. Melissa Crutchfield, UMCOR's Assistant General Secretary for International Disaster Response, tells viewers about the Haitian people's struggle for survival and UMCOR's renewed efforts and commitment in Haiti.
The Jewish Distribution Committee (JDC), another faith-based group working in the country, has a long relationship with Haiti. Jewish refugees from Central Europe immigrated to Haiti in 1938 with JDC assistance, an action that saved them from the atrocities of the Holocaust. Gideon Herscher, JDC's Haiti Relief Director, talks about how the organization is reaching its goals to help the country recover. The JDC has opened a new rehabilitation center that serves amputees and injured victims.
Also featured on the broadcast is Charisse Classman, a Washington-based Legislative Assistant for Catholic Relief Services (CRS), a Catholic organization working in and committed to Haiti since 1954's Hurricane Hazel.
John P. Blessington is the executive producer and Liz Kineke is the producer. The special was produced in cooperation with the National Council of Churches, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, the Islamic Society of North America, the Union for Reform Judaism, and the New York Board of Rabbis.

Well, gang, my night blooming cereus has amazed me by producing 4
flowers open tonight - 2 last night. Never done this before - think
it liked all the rain this summer. I know some people get 20 blooms
or more on their plants, but mine has never, in all the years I've
had it - like well over 20- had more than 3 at a time and never a 2nd
flush - it had put out 1 a few weeks ago that I missed completely. I
was moaning about this when a friend offered to come help me repot it
and I discovered 7 buds on it! Some nocturnal visitor knocked 1 of
those off, but left me with 6...I've been watching them like a
Sooo...took self out in the dark with my digi cam (which I've never
used at night before) and got some pix.
If you want to see.....go here:
How such a gangly awkward ugly duckling of a plant can produce such a
lovely flower is beyond me..and the scent is heavenly, too.

Tablets Find Safety at
School"> Gateway isnt the only tablet maker to be eyeing education. Competitors such as Toshiba Corp. are in the hunt for higher education as well. Bentley College, in Waltham, Mass., recently chose to outfit a number of its incoming freshmen with Tecra M4 tablets from Toshiba America Information Systems Inc., one of Toshibas United States arms. Toshiba said the college would outfit 410 of its 925 incoming freshmen with the tablets and study the impact of tablet PCs on their learning as part of its Student Mobile Computing program. "Inasmuch as there is a market there [manufactures like Gateway] can develop substantially, I think education is it," said Roger Kay, president of Endpoint Technologies Associates. "Id call it the biggest niche."Gateway doesnt dispute the lower projections. In some ways, it embraces them. It will market the new machine more as a notebook with a pen interface than a tablet PC, expecting people to use it as a notebook about 75 percent of the time and only about 25 percent of the time as a tablet, McDonald said. "This product is all about taking a convertible mainstream. Its not about being the thinnest, super light, $2,000 convertible youve seen," Diehl said. But he added Gateway still aims to better Kays figures, in part by taking some of the analysts suggestions. Next Page: Tablet troubles could be over pricing.
Kay, in a report published last month, predicted that tablet shipments will long be a niche product and will total less than 4 million units per year by 2009, well below some recent forecasts, which had predicted tablets would quickly become general purpose computers and see shipments as high as 14 million during the same time period, he said.

The Hills Are Alive in New York City . . .: http://www.johnnyjet.com/the-hills-are-alive-in-new-york-city
Cruising on a large ship, whether it's a five night journey across the Atlantic, a two week trip through the Norwegian fjords or a short jaunt through the Caribbean, has always appealed to me as I can check-in, unpack, and that's it! It's a moveable feast, both literally and figuratively with no constant unpacking-repacking. Aside from the oceans and seas, I've always wanted to do a Mississippi riverboat cruise, but the timing and the opportunity has just never come together.
Last fall, a different set of stars came into alignment and I found myself in Budapest, Hungary, preparing for a week-long cruise, northbound on the Danube. Because my parents came from Austria and my wife and I have visited Vienna many times, I thought this might be the perfect opportunity for the long-awaited river cruise and I could finally tick that journey off my bucket list.
It's not the Mississippi, but the Danube has its own image and well earned reputation for beautiful scenery, extraordinary cities on its banks and, for pure comfort, smooth waters throughout the year.
So, here I am in Budapest, the first stop – the embarkation city for a seven-day cruise up the Danube on one of AmaWaterways' newest ships, the AmaSonata.
Before casting off, a side-bar anecdote. I must tell you about the very unique hotel I discovered in Budapest – the Boscolo, a 120 year old palace converted into a hotel with rooms overlooking one of the main thoroughfares of the city. The room I was assigned was huge with very high ceilings, a most comfortable king-size bed, sumptuous closet space for several wardrobes and a bathroom as big as my New York apartment. I really felt like a guest in a palace, and one of the best parts was the rate of $135 per night for what I would term a very expansive suite.
Our concierge, Peter, was one of the highlights as well. He suggested, communicated and consummated two special evenings for us – one at the ballet and one at the opera, all for incredibly low prices. It was a steal compared to London or New York.
In addition to the palatial accommodations and super sightseeing in Budapest, there were several extraordinary meals – my favorite, schnitzel, of course, and then a half- day session at the Gellert Baths, world renown for its indoor and outdoor swimming pools and thermal baths and massages. For anyone visiting Budapest, this is an experience not to be missed. And since Hungary is not yet on the Euro, everything is fairly cheap. Now back to maritime matters.
It's boarding time, and the appetite for Budapest has been whetted. The AmaSonata is docked close by a metro station in Budapest, making the hotel to ship connection incredibly easy. The ship is elegant and comfortable, easy to get around in, and there are drinks and snacks always available. The staff is professional and welcoming. The first evening is spent checking out the menu selections, the dining room layout, the friendliness and professionalism of the waiters, the quality of the food and then attempting to get to know a few of the fellow passengers.
After dinner, we met with a very outgoing gentleman, Dijan, the ship's Cruise Director, in order to plan our sightseeing tours for the week-long journey. He was a fountain of information and incredibly accommodating.
The ship set sail seamlessly and unknowingly during the night – one doesn't even notice the vessel's movement and after a restful sleep in a very comfortable bed and spacious stateroom, one wakes up the next morning by announcements from the convivial captain saying that we have arrived in Bratislava. Breakfast is served in the dining room and the gangway is open from 9 a.m. and everyone is instructed to be back on board by 2 p.m. And, of course he says, "Enjoy the morning in Bratislava."
Bratislava is the capital of Slovakia and the only European city, boarding two other independent countries, Austria and Hungary. It's a quaint city, resplendent of the once mighty Czech – Hungarian Empire from a century ago. Now with Slovakia and the Czech Republic existing separately, Bratislava has a life of its own without having to answer to Prague. It is a member of the European Union and for the sake of simplicity and value for money in this small country, Slovakia trades with the Euro.
Walking around Bratislava's old town center with its picturesque buildings and palaces (now mostly offices, embassies and hotels), spacious squares featuring small touristy shops, coffee houses and restaurants, one has the flavor of really being in a Europe of 120 years ago without the hustle and hassle of one of Europe's larger cities.
Bratislava has its own lovely opera house, a museum which was once a home for Mozart in 1762, some very amusing manhole covers and a comedic statue of Napoleon leaning on a bench seemingly trying to overhear what might being said – all quite amusing. It's definitely all worth the morning stop.
All the cities along the Danube are situated pretty close to one another; one can drive between them in a few short hours, but, of course, to do it by boat is much more relaxing and peaceful. The afternoon is spent cruising up-river to Vienna from Bratislava. A few hours later, we're tied up at Vienna with the dock a five minute walk from an U-Bahn station, the U-Bahn being the city's subway – how convenient is that!
Vienna is an integral part of my life, heritage and culture. My parents were born and raised there and the city is inbred into the fabric of my life. As a child, all I heard was Vienna this and Vienna that. From the museums to the coffee houses and restaurants, from the wines (the only European city with its own wineries and vineyards) to the Stateoper, Ratthaus, Weinerwald, Schönbrunn and Hofburg Palaces, the Spanish Riding School and the Prater Park, nothing was better or finer than Vienna in their opinion.
Through the years, I've tried to find some truth to all those family stories and legends, and have kind of seen or heard them all. The sum total is that Vienna is pretty much what they said – a fabulous city with a regal and Freudian history (excluding WWII), magnificent buildings, churches and museums, sites to visit and nowadays, a magnet for foodies and wine aficionados. And of course, for shoppers, there is a variety of stores in and around the Graben and Kärtner Straße – Vienna's main shopping boulevards.
The central part of the city is laid out in a series of rings and since I kind of knew the Inner Ring layout, we went into town with the city tour and did our own thing. There was apple strudel, afternoon pastries and a fantastic schnitzel dinner with the beautifully cooked, thin slab of pork hanging off the sides of the giant plate at Film üeller (book first!). It was a most wonderful day of museum hopping, window shopping and eating. Don't miss the Albertina, the Leopold and MAK museums. Vienna is a must see city on anyone's European bucket list.
From Vienna, we cruised overnight up through the Wachau Valley, famous for its wines and apricot industries, and stopped for the morning at the minute village of Dürnstein. It's a place that can be seen in ten minutes; the real attractions being the ruins of a castle with an interesting legend starring Britain's Richard The Lionhearted, and the showroom and shops of the Wieser Apricot company, which manufactures a myriad of apricot products from marmalade to schnapps to candies. How fantastic was this! After all the free samples and buying the most delicious apricot marmalades and liquor, who needs lunch after this yummy excursion through apricot heaven!
After the Dürstein short visit, yet long enough to taste and buy, we set sail for the small town of Melk, famous for its monastery,and its ecclesiastical library of more than 80,000 books. It's a five star attraction and well worth the tour.
After an overnight slow cruise northbound, the next stop was Linz, our gateway to land-locked Salzburg. I had visited Salzburg some 35+ years ago on a self-driving tour through Austria, but honestly couldn't remember much of that trip.
After a one hour bus ride from Linz, we arrived in Salzburg for a daylong walkabout in this very traditional Austrian city. Luckily the weather cooperated, and despite the fall chill air, we toured historical sites and parks. Then the fun part – off to the main shopping streets which were actually starting to get into the end-of-the-year holiday roll. Lots of gift shops already displayed beautiful holiday decorations and ornaments for the oncoming season. And it was another occasion to lunch over, well you guessed, weiner schnitzel and for dessert, the delicious sweet soufflé, Salzburg Nockerl. And true to form, they did not disappoint.
Back to Linz for the evening and as luck would have it, a stone's throw from the ship's dock, was the Linz Brucknerhaus concert and festival hall. And for just 25 euros, we attended a "Women In Jazz" concert. It was a bit "avant garde" in terms of music quality and selection – very eclectic indeed. But it was exactly what the evening needed as we were nearing our final Danube destination, Vilshofen, a small town on the Danube that serves as the Danube river port for Munich.
Scrambling the last evening in the late hours to pack our bags, we did manage a few hours of sleep, as we had to wake-up in time for the 7:30 a.m. bus departure from the ship to Munich International Airport and our flights back to London and the connection to New York. Vilshofen is about 90 minutes from Munich Airport and during the comfortable bus ride we could see the fall season flatland landscapes of plowed fields and forests from the highway. Some of the foliage was turning bright orange and red from its green summer colors so we didn't feel too bad about missing the turning of the colors in New York and the Northeast environs.
In looking back over this Danube adventure, I now want very much to do it again, but possibly some of the other waterways featured in the AmaWaterways programs. There is a variety of programs featuring most of Europe, Russia and the Far East. Touring via these ships is absolutely relaxing without the hassle of having to be here or there at someone's scream or whistle. No tour leaders with raised flags or umbrellas yelling at you either. It's the best way to go!
AmaSonata Notes: The ship's accommodation is more comfortable than most. The AmaSonata features a very advanced design, seemingly well ahead of most river cruise vessels currently in operation. Twin Balconies are available in most staterooms, which measure a spacious 210-235 sq. feet, with four suites measuring 300 sq. feet. Passengers enjoy gourmet dining with free-flowing fine wines at multiple onboard dining venues; a heated sun deck swimming pool with a 'swim-up' bar; fitness center and spa; complimentary ship-wide Wi-Fi and in-room Internet and entertainment on demand; and a number of bicycles carried onboard for guests to enjoy on their own or on guided bike tours. Throughout the voyage one never hears the engines or mechanical workings of the vessel, and despite quite a lot of river traffic on the Danube, there's never incessant horn blowing during the river voyage.

My LA Times story, Dec. 16, on the New York Holiday Store Windows: http://www.latimes.com/travel/deals/la-trb-new-york-holiday-windows-20151215-story.html
NEW YORK, Feb. 21 – – This afternoon two dear friends from Tel Aviv, my Cuban wife and I had the distinct pleasure of attending a dance performance at New York's City Center, "Havana Rakatan." My wife, often times, can be very dubious about "artists" from present day Cuba as so many have been outright duds. But this troupe, part of City Center's Latin dance festival, proved that the small island in the Caribbean often produces over-the-top brilliant performers and artists, and these musicians and dancers were utterly supreme. So much so that often during the Saturday matinee, the audience gainfully applauded with standing ovations. At the end of the show, the audience screamed and yelled in appreciation almost as though the Beatles or the Rolling Stones has just performed one of their top hits.
This "Havana Rakatan" performance left me constantly tapping my feet and air drumming my hands and fingers on my wife's hands and arms – I was at the ready to jump up in my seat and start a mambo or a cha cha as the music progressed through a series of fast-paced numbers with brilliant choreography coupled with the brilliant musicians. The dancers, most of which must have had ballet backgrounds (so it seemed by their smooth and seamless movements, leg stretches and ability to fly effortlessly) were gorgeous, both in movement and in dress; again kudos to the costume designers and dressers.
The female vocalist, very reminiscent, of Celia Cruz, was also at the top of her game, and from the program notes, has a very promising career as a singer, composer, arranger and choral director.
By all means if you enjoy Cuban music and heritage and are searching for something to do on a Sunday afternoon or evening, snap up a ticket for Sunday's last performances at City Center. It's well worth the time and effort and you'll come away with a huge smile and tapping hands and feet.
