At Palmetto Dunes, we offer not one but two premiere full-service spas for your relaxation and enjoyment!

Shelter Cove Marina, part of Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort on Hilton Head Island, has received the "South Carolina Clean Marina Certification."
"We are very excited and proud of this prestigious recognition," said Palmetto Dunes Vice President of Resort Operations Brad Marra. "We would like to acknowledge the hard work of Ron Rozelle."
Shelter Cove Harbour is a Mediterranean-style village located mid-island at mile marker 8 across from Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort, offering casual waterfront dining, unique shopping, live entertainment and beautiful views of Broad Creek.
The marina is located just off the Intracoastal Waterway overlooking the wide reaches of Broad Creek, with 178 boat slips for boats up to 145 feet in length. 30/50/100 amp service, cable and water are available at every slip.
By meeting prescribed environmental performance criteria, marinas can qualify to fly the South Carolina Clean Marina flag to attract recreational and transient boaters to their facility. More than 30 states and territories operate Clean Marina programs using best management practices to protect and improve water quality at marinas.
Clean Marina programs are voluntary programs run by many states in coordination with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The National Marine Manufacturers Association in South Carolina administers the South Carolina Clean Marina Program.
The Clean Marina Inspection Committee conducted an onsite inspection of Shelter Cove Marina on March 28. It inspects a variety of categories such as boater education, facility management, fueling, mechanical activities, painting and fiberglass repair, and emergency planning.
In its report, the committee recognized Shelter Cove Marina for its impressive educational materials provided to boaters. The committee noted that Shelter Cove Marina management was well prepared for the inspection. All required paperwork including The Operations and Maintenance Manual, Emergency Response Plan, Contracts, Permits, Employee Training Documentation and a consolidated binder was well organized for the inspection.
It happens every day… kids and grandparents pass by the Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center and shout with glee, "They got Pickleball!" while their parents, avid tennis players exclaim, "What is Pickleball!?"
So, what is Pickleball?
Some people think that it is game for "old people," or for people "that can't play tennis anymore." And some avid tennis players feigningly describe it as "not a real sport!" Those that venture out to our pickleball courts to give the game a try, quickly discern that pickleball is easy-to-learn, very social, much more aerobic than they thought, and FUN, FUN, FUN. Pickleball is not a replacement for tennis, nor is it even tennis-like. It is more akin to playing ping-pong standing on the table than anything, and who in their right mind could imagine that such a game could be anything but FUN.
Why has pickleball become so popular?
The answer is simple: it is easy to learn and fun to play. This is a magical combination. Most of the people who venture onto our courts at Palmetto Dunes to take one of our beginner clinics, have only recently learned of the sport. Most have walked by our courts, seen people playing, and quickly decide they have the physical prowess and the raw skill to try the game. Our clinics last an hour and within that time most people conclude that not only can they play the sport but it is a fun, affordable, social activity, where people laugh and have a good time. Most people stay for the hour and a half round robin that follows, and by the time they finish they are well prepared to begin playing in their local community and want to learn more about how to find places to play.
Today, pickleball is being played in 5,000+ locations nationwide, up from on 750 in 2010, with most of these locations only offering pickleball indoors on a drop-in basis.
Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort has started the island's first dedicated Pickleball Center on eight outdoor courts. The Palmetto Dunes Pickleball Center has instructional pickleball programs for both the beginner and intermediate player and offers daily opportunities for players to play in round robins or drop-in's.Come see us and join the revolution!

With its winding bike paths, miles of beachfront, and a vibrant lagoon ecosystem, Palmetto Dunes is an outdoor lover's paradise. However, even Hilton Head Island isn't immune to grey skies and rain clouds. Don't let a little bit of rain ruin your vacation! There are still lots of fun things to do on a rainy day at Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort.
Vacation in your villa
One of the best advantages of a vacation home or villa rental is you've got space to lounge and enjoy. Peruse your vacation rental's DVD collection, grab a deck of cards, or use your villa's kitchen to whip up a rainy-day feast. It's a perfect excuse to spend time together, and there's tons of fun to be had without having to leave your home away from home.
Dine with a view
Enjoy beautiful marina views from the great indoors while feasting on a long lunch at one of our restaurants at Shelter Cove Harbour and Marina. ELA's offers an exquisite view of the harbor mouth and refined European flavors, they've even been featured in Bon Appetit magazine. Or head to Scott's Fish Market for fresh seafood and a casual Lowcountry vibe. You can also enjoy and quiet lagoon view at our recently reopened Alexander's Restaurant & Wine Bar. Check out 5 menu itemas you must try here!
Work on your golf swing
At Palmetto Dunes, you've got the unique opportunity to improve your game without ever setting foot on the green. SwingFit is the premier custom golf club fitter on Hilton Head Island. The experts at our SwingFit facility will track your drive, measure your swing, and create a custom club—or clubs—just for you. This indoor facility is located at the Robert Trent Jones golf course, right behind Big Jim's. We recommend making an appointment. Call 855-225-8214 today.
Catch the game
Speaking of Big Jim's, why not watch the big game? Our favorite sports bar is always broadcasting the hottest matchups on the big screen.
Don't forget that we also have kids' activities (even on rainy days).
Ocean adventures in the rain
Rain may hamper your beach day plans, but we think you'll find that the dolphins of Hilton Head don't mind it one bit! Search availability and book a boat charter online out of Shelter Cove Harbour & Marina (most boats are covered and enclosed) and head out to see what wet wildlife you can spot! They say that rainy days make for the best fishing. It might be time to test that theory out by chartering a fishing boat.
Enjoy the cozy comforts of Hilton Head Island
If you have kids, why not take a visit to the Art Café at Coligny Beach Park, where you can enjoy a local lunch while painting souvenirs together. Or if you're by yourself, grab a good book and head to the Hilton Head Social Bakery, owned by award-winning Manhattan chef Philippe Feret. Enjoy a perfect pastry and wait for the rain to clear.
Spa delights
On the other hand, you're on vacation, so why not treat yourself? While the sky is busy raining, you can get busy relaxing. We have two spas at Palmetto Dunes, where you can indulge in a relaxing massage, soothe your sun-touched skin with a wrap or facial, or get a pedicure so your toes will be polished and ready for your next beach day.
Find some inspiration
You can also take advantage of a little bit of down time to make some more vacation plans. Relax in your villa or at a café while signing up for a Tennis Clinic or Pickleball lesson! Arrange some private golf instruction for when the sun comes out, plan your next bike route, or read up on the fish of Palmetto Dunes Lagoon. You'll be ready to make the most of your Hilton Head trip as soon as the clouds part.
How have you made the most of a rainy day at Palmetto Dunes? Tell us in the comments
Heritage Week around Hilton Head Island and the world-renowned Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort is one of the most popular times of the year.
While PGA Tour players and fans are flocking to the island, Palmetto Dunes is enjoying a number of guest-friendly events. For starters, in celebration of Heritage Week, when you buy a dozen Chrome or Supersoft Callaway golf balls, you get a sleeve for free at the Robert Trent Jones pro shop located in Palmetto Dunes.
Former PGA Tour player and longtime Palmetto Dunes Director of Instruction Doug Weaver kicked off the week Monday afternoon with a free golf exhibition at the Robert Trent Jones Course, where participants experienced Weaver's effective and entertaining style. Tuesday is Travis Mathew Day, meaning customers receive 20 percent off all Travis Mathew products in the Robert Trent Jones pro shop, plus a free koozie, insulated bag and Travis Mathew hat with purchase.
Next, it's time to turn to golf equipment. On Tuesday, SwingFit instructors will conduct a "Beat Your Driver" event at the Robert Trent Jones Course, where golfers bring their driver and in 10 minutes, a Palmetto Dunes representative will beat their driver distance or consistency. If not, customers receive a $10 gift certificate to SwingFit. Wednesday afternoon from 1-4 pm will be an Edel Single Length Fitting Demonstration by SwingFit at the Robert Trent Jones Course.
SwingFit is headed by Chris Wycoff, who has been named one of Golf Digest magazine's "Top 100 Club Fitters." SwingFit's approach includes more than 20,000 total club and shaft combinations, including Titleist, Cobra, Callaway, TaylorMade, Nike, Ping, Mizuno, Edel, Fujikura, Matrix, Aerotec Steelfiber, Nipon, KBS, TrueTemper, Accra, Paderson and others — using a data-driven process to improve performance by identifying the ideal combination of club, shaft and build specifications for each golfer.
Enjoy Heritage Week … and before you head down to the tournament or after your fun day of viewing, stop by the Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort and enjoy all there is to offer.

Originally opened in 1977, Alexander's Restaurant has been mainstay of the Hilton Head Island dining scene for decades. We're thrilled to be able to reintroduce our neighbors and guests to the new Alexander's Restaurant & Wine Bar, a classic Hilton Head Island restaurant that we're sure you're going to fall in love with all over again.
We've completely redesigned the space overlooking Palmetto Dunes lagoon and reimagined the seafood-based menu, with the help of executive chef Don Reinheardt and Chef de Cuisine Sean Carroll, to include locally-sourced produce and seafood. The result is an elegant dining room with well-crafted dishes, creative cocktails and good old-fashioned Southern hospitality.
Whether it's an old favorite or a new entrée, here are five dishes we can't wait to try from Alexander's new menu:
Oysters Alexander's
The oysters on the half shell at Alexander's are a seminal favorite and we've also added Oysters Alexander's to the oh-so-appealing appetizer menu. Topped with bacon, horseradish cheddar and crab, it's a tasty start to your meal and a perfect example of the bold flavors Chef Reinheardt and his team have created.
Palmetto Dunes Pimento Cheese
The perfect starter for your party, this cheesy dip with kick comes served with grilled flatbreads and cornichons.
Shrimp and Grits
What would a trip to the Lowcountry be without shrimp and grits? Alexander's makes theirs with decadent sausage gravy and fresh golden tomatoes. We locally source the grits from Geechie Boy Mill on Edisto Island, S.C. Heirloom corn is used in the antique gristmills, which preserve the natural oils and flavors of the corn resulting in the most flavorful grits. This delicious twist on a Southern classic will have you coming back to Alexander's again and again.
Fresh, Local Catch
Chef Reinheardt and his team are experts at seafood, and ordering their catch of the day is a brilliant way to experience their culinary creativity and taste the flavors of Hilton Head Island, including local fish such as grouper, flounder, and blue crabs.
Alexander's Wiener Schnitzel
While Alexander's is known for its seafood, we had to include this dish from their Land & Air Entrée menu! An Alexander's tradition, the wiener schnitzel is classically prepared and served on decadent whipped potatoes with a red wine demi-glace, capers, and seasonal vegetables.
What menu item has caught your eye? Tell us in the comments! Alexander's Restaurant & Wine Bar is open daily from 5–10 pm. To view the complete menu visit www.alexandersrestaurant.com, and for more information on all of the dining options at Palmetto Dunes visit www.palmettodunes.com/dining/hilton-head-island-dining.
1. Myth: You go on golf trips to get away from your family.
Fact: You don't go on golf trips to get away from your family. And if you did, you wouldn't dare say it out loud. No, the more diplomatic approach involves talking about bonding time with your friends, badly needed relaxation (and exercise!) on the golf course and a healthy dose of culture away from the course. And for all that … Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort has got you well covered. Three award-winning golf courses designed by a trio of the game's legends: Robert Trent Jones golf course, Arthur Hills golf course and George Fazio course. And plenty of culture including the Mediterranean-style Shelter Cove Harbour & Marina that features premium waterfront shopping and dining — everything from upscale clothing boutiques to fine art galleries, elegant restaurants and casual pubs overlooking the marina and waterfront — and is home to a wide variety of charters including nature cruises, dolphin tours, sport crabbing and fishing.
2. Myth: On a golf trip, all you will have time for is hitting the links, eating (and drinking), and sleeping.
Fact: At Palmetto Dunes, we know this isn't the case. Our three courses are so conveniently located and there are sooo many other things to enjoy around here. Named to the top 25 World's Best Family Getaways by Travel + Leisure, the resort features not only a trio of world-class golf courses, but also an award-winning tennis center, an 11-mile inland salt-water lagoon system for kayaking and fishing, and Hilton Head Outfitters for bike rentals, canoes, kayaks, fishing and much more. Play More. Do More. Get More. That's the promise Palmetto Dunes fulfills every day for thousands of vacationers, golfers, tennis players, beach lovers, groups and nature lovers.
3. Myth: On a golf trip, the comfort of your accommodations isn't all that important.
Fact: Wrong. With all you're going to be doing at Palmetto Dunes, you'll want nothing more when you hit the hay than to enjoy a comfortable, peaceful night's sleep. For short-term and long-term accommodations, Palmetto Dunes proudly offers the island's premier selection of vacation rental properties from oceanfront hotel rooms to spacious villas overlooking the harbour, lagoon, fairways or beach.
4. Myth: You go on a golf trip to play golf, not get lessons.
Fact: Well, at Palmetto Dunes you can do both. Former PGA TOUR player Doug Weaver has served 13 years as Palmetto Dunes' highly respected Director of Golf Instruction. One of the resort's popular attractions is the complimentary Monday golf exhibition and clinic, where participants experience Weaver's effective and entertaining style. The weekly event is hands on, interactive and prizes are given. Last year, his colleagues voted Weaver as Golf Digest magazine's No. 2 Instructor in South Carolina and he was named the Hilton Head Island PGA chapter's "Teacher of the Year." At Hilton Head Family Golf School, Weaver and his team present a holistic, keep-it-simple approach to learning golf. The resort atmosphere is service oriented, classy and relaxed. The coaching style is the same, making many students much better golfers. Private lessons at PD include take-home video analysis, emailed notes and practice before and after.
5. Myth: People take golf trips to remote locales such as Bandon Dunes and Pinehurst because there's nothing else to do other than play golf … and that's the way it should be.
Fact: We happen to think that's NOT the way it should be. Palmetto Dunes is nestled in the heart of Hilton Head Island and surrounded by most anything and everything fun you can think of to do during the day AND at night. Hilton Head Island has long been renowned as a family friendly destination. The readers of Travel + Leisure magazine agree, naming Hilton Head as 2016's "No. 1 Island in the U.S." in the magazine's annual "World's Best" survey.
6. Myth: On a golf trip, you need to "dance with the one who brought you" … in other words, bring your own golf clubs, no matter how old and outdated they are, because they're what you're accustomed to playing.
Fact: Well, maybe some places, but not Palmetto Dunes. Don't want to lug your golf clubs on your trip? The Palmetto Dunes Rental Club Program is a far cry from the worn-out, no name sets available elsewhere. Only full sets of the very latest clubs from top brands Taylor Made, Nike, and Cobra are offered to visiting golfers in need of equipment. Or, if you've been giving thought to a new set of sticks, Palmetto Dunes now offers the expertise of SwingFit, headed by Chris Wycoff, who has been named one of Golf Digest magazine's "Top 100 Club Fitters." SwingFit's approach includes more than 20,000 total club and shaft combinations, including Titleist, Cobra, Callaway, TaylorMade, Nike, Ping, Mizuno, Edel, Fujikura, Matrix, Aerotec Steelfiber, Nipon, KBS, TrueTemper, Accra, Paderson and others — using a data-driven process to improve performance by identifying the ideal combination of club, shaft and build specifications for each golfer. Another important feature of the new service at Palmetto Dunes: With on-site inventory and a team of skilled builders, many clubs can be delivered within 48 hours.
7. Myth: Golf trips are fun, but they tend to be very expensive, too.
Fact: Not necessarily. At Palmetto Dunes, the arrival of spring allows golfers to begin scheduling their next golf getaway while also saving money through the resort's numerous, attractive golf stay-and-play packages. For guests who booked their accommodations directly through Palmetto Dunes Resort Reservations, additional packages and specials are available. In addition if you're with your family, kids 10 and under play free after 4 PM at the Robert Trent Jones Hilton Head golf course and the Arthur Hills golf course with an adult paying regular rate.
Spring has sprung in Hilton Head Island, and that means it's time for another season of Music & Taste! To help you get as excited as we are for the ninth season of this annual event, we're giving you the lowdown on all of the action that will be happening at Shelter Cove Harbour & Marina every Thursday night.
This year's Music & Taste events feature some of the most popular bands in the area, each playing in the lovely, Lowcountry air at our outdoor performance space at Shelter Cove Harbour & Marina.
The Headliners is arguably one of Hilton Head Island's most popular bands. Featuring five talented musicians on vocals, horns, keyboards, bass, guitar, and drums, The Headliners know how to get a party started and keep it going into the night. Not only are their harmonies and vocals impressive, their repertoire is incredibly varied. You could hear anything from Big Band hits, 60s funk rock, 70s disco, to 90s alternative when The Headliners are on stage.
Deas-Guyz has been wowing crowds with their mix of Motown, Reggae, R&B, and popular dance hits since 2000. This six-piece band performs across South Carolina and Georgia and if you're looking for a beat to tap your toes to, you won't want to miss a high-energy performance by Deas-Guyz.
Target is a seasoned musical trio that rocks everything from disco classics to soulful ballads to current Top 40 hits. Helmed by the powerful vocals of lead singer Michelle, Target puts on a show that will have you dancing in the aisles and dying to sing along.
Not only is Shelter Cove Harbour & Marina the place to be on Thursday nights for great music, our restaurants at Shelter Cove will be offering tasty treats and delicious drinks for all to enjoy.
The best part of Music & Taste is that you don't have to miss out on any of the action! Each week, our featured restaurants set up tents in the square, so you can dine and dance in the open, South Carolina air. We love seeing the special appetizers and drinks that our Shelter Cove favorites come up with for this outdoor event.
This year look for food by Bistro 17, ELA's Blue Water Grille, Bucci's Italian Cuisine, Mediterranean Harbour Bar & Grill, San Miguel's, Scott's Fish Market, and Hilton Head Social Bakery!
While you're at Shelter Cove Harbour & Marina, check out the onsite shopping, and enjoy a stroll along the marina's boardwalk. Then dance the night away, or bring a chair to relax, while enjoying a beautiful Hilton Head sunset. We can't think of a better way to spend a Thursday night! Best of all, Music & Taste is free!
Here are some tips to get the most out of Music & Taste:
• The event takes place outdoors at the iconic Neptune Statue at Shelter Cove Harbour and Marina and is weather permitting.
• Arrive early, and bring a fold-up chair with you! Seating is limited.
• While admission is free, we are collecting canned goods for Deep Well Project.
• Music & Taste runs from 6–9 pm every Thursday night from March 30 – May 18.
So join us Thursday evenings this spring for some Southern charm, food, and fun at Music & Taste! To view schedule of events or more info go here.

Darren Aronofsky Put His Seventh-Grade Teacher in Noah
She encouraged him to write a poem about Noah.
Darren Aronofsky's been working on Noah for a pretty long time. Like, a really long time. Since he was 13. It's part of the lore surrounding the mega-budget movie: When he was in seventh grade, Aronofsky won a poetry contest with a poem about Noah and the dove with the olive branch. Over the summer, Aronofsky told audiences that winning that contest "gave me the courage and spirit to be a writer," and now he's brought things full circle: The teacher who encouraged him to write that poem appears in Noah. This long THR story is mostly about the fighting between Aronofsky, Paramount, and religious possible moviegoers, but it also includes this delightful tidbit:
Whatever happens with Noah, the story has had a happy ending in one respect. Aronofsky asked his mother, herself a retired schoolteacher, to track down [his teacher] Mrs. Fried. She found her in Florida, and Aronofsky invited her to the set. True to form all these years later, she arrived in a pink car, dressed in pink. Aronofsky gave her a cameo in the film. You can spot her playing a one-eyed crone in a scene with Crowe.
Go ahead, try not to be charmed by that! It is impossible.

Part 1: The design - 4 colors
This is my first attemp to make rounded joints… The design is simple and used two radii only so it is easy to set-up router circle jig. Here is the sketch up drawing. I like to have your ideas whether it is much better to use solid wood rather than veneer. My last project was so difficult to glue the veneer. I have no plans yet to the step by steps in making this design a reality… Just look at it first and probably you can suggest. Or you can try it…. TOP VIEW BOT...
Part 2: The Plan
Normal to each project to have a plan, written or only in the mind, working ahead is knowing what is next. Things available: The resources that are available. The essentials are: RouterRouter Jig – I will use the straight guide, compass and roller attachments… I have to make the curving jig if the compass attachment will not suffice.Routerbits… Got 1/8" dia x 1/2" (1/4 drive) straight bit – could be used for cutting the curve.Reamer bit 1/2 drive ...
Part 3: The Lid
Just to give you a progress… the lid is done. I was not able to make photos because I am pre-occupied. Well here it is….. My next plan is to have the other part (bottom) plus sides are to be constructed separately. The bottom will contain the ball. It was a nice adventure using a compass attachment to my router. This was constructed the same as Martyn's EZ mitre and also my plan will be an upright world as this is patterned with Martyn's inverted ...
Part 4: Design for the ball inside the box
The globe. My previous plan was a flat circle ball. Since it is still possible to make a ball a globelike structure. So be it. Here are the sketchup: If you have suggestion on how to make the globe without using a lathe, (just because I don't have one.) Feel free. I think it is hard as hard when I designed it or drawn it in the sketch up. Thanks,

Anjali has reportedly has done a U turn and said 'no' to glam-filled roles from now onwards. The actress who was always on look for glam roles for the past two years has been made to rethink her survival strategy.
There appears to be more than a single reason for her decision. Firstly, films wherein she had appeared in glamourous roles are not getting her the name she desires. Secondly, she appears to be putting on oodles of flesh around her waist and hips at an alarming rate which might not permit her to don glamorous costumes.
The actress, who has had a torrid phase in her personal life during the past 2-3 months, announced recently that she had put all her problems behind and would be concentrating in films in a full-fledged manner. She told newsmen that she had 'patched up' with her Aunt Bharathi Devi and has decided to manage her career and life in her own terms.
Anjali's glam-avatars can be seen in Singam-2 wherein she has danced for an 'item number' and in Vishal's Madha Gaja Raja wherein she has tried revealing herself. She is also hoping that her last night release Telugu film Balupu, which has her essaying the second heroine's role behind Shruti Haasan opposite Ravi Teja, does well so that her Telugu market remains intact.
Now Anjali has been sending feelers to directors in Tamil industry that she is ready to do roles similar to that she essayed in films such as Angaadi Theru, Kattradhu Thamizh and Engeyum Eppodhum. If the script was good, she was even ready to reduce her fee to a great extent, she says.

You might not be aware of it, but towns up and down the UK are hosting raft races on an unprecedented scale. The trend seems to have been on the increase for some years, although most of us have remained oblivious to it. Typical raft racing events see community groups, organisations and companies gathering annually in the magnificent British weather conditions to get stuck in and soaked through.
And of course they're more than likely to watch their high quality home-made rafts sink beneath them!
What's it all about?
Raft races are a fun option for fundraising events, or just to provide a focal point for local community members to meet up and join in. There's also the option of simply having a good laugh at the expense of the people taking part!
In some cases the races have different classes and teams may choose to enter for speed, style or just being as ridiculous as possible. Both participants and rafts are often decorated in eye-catching or ludicrous ways, with fancy dress a popular ingredient for those with a less competitive focus.
Fun in Dorset
One of our readers, Chris Hogan, has fond memories of competing in a couple of raft races on the Stour in Dorset, although the experience left him with only a vague recollection of the dates and details (perhaps because it was longer ago than he cares to remember).
"I was roped into a mate's work team as they were short of numbers, and I didn't really know what I was in for," he said.
If you fancied having a go yourself but were worried about the technical expertise necessary to build your raft, listen to this:
"The raft was four bits of wood, some plastic drums and four red plastic chairs from the works canteen with the legs taken off. For most of the course we were dragging the raft across shingle, to be honest, it wasn't until the last part that it could float. Or sink, as the case may be."
You don't have to be ready to make rowing history, nor is it about great feats of engineering, although some teams take it more seriously than others:
"We did well, I think we were in the top ten for our class," said Chris, "but the following year other people put a lot more effort into their rafts and we didn't place. An aeronautics firm's apprentices had used all sorts of exotic materials on their raft and they reckoned it would have cost twenty grand if they'd made it for a customer."
It may not have been the start of a magnificent water-sport career but it was a good laugh:
"It was great fun, and I'd do it again if they asked me," said Chris, "but funnily enough, twenty years on the phone still isn't ringing."
Local Events
Most of us don't have the best habits when it comes to being involved in, or even aware of, the events that are happening in our local areas, so it's worth keeping an eye out for any raft races, or indeed similar events, organised within yours.
Some of the better-known races have been on the go for many years, while some are still in the process of establishing themselves. As well as a great day out for kids and adults alike, these events are first and foremost community focussed, often raising impressive amounts for both local and national charities.
Here's a round-up of a few events happening this year, but have a google and see what you can find in your area too.
Wellesbourne and Shakespeare Lions Clubs
One of the longest running raft races in the country, this event dates back to the 1970s. The race was organised from day one with the intention of raising money for charities, and has to date raised over half a million pounds.
Taking place on the River Avon and finishing at Stratford-upon-Avon, this race has evolved into an extensive event, complete with PA system, plenty of themed rafts and fancy dress.
Deepings Raft Race
The Deepings Raft Race in Lincolnshire is held on the River Welland, starting from Deepings St James. This race raises money for charities, not only from the race itself, but also through the associated events taking place on the day. The Deepings event is organised and sponsored by local businesses and individuals.
Kidderminster Lions Raft Race
This race runs from Arley to Stourport-on-Severn and is an annual event held each May, raising funds for charity. The Kidderminster and District Lions Club organise the eight mile event, which takes place on the River Severn, south-east of Kidderminster in Hereford and Worcester.
Portishead Raft Race
The event features .... the rather unique edible boats regatta, in which you have to create a bite sized boat
The coastal town of Portishead in Somerset hosts a Raft Race and Waterside Picnic which raise money for a host of local charities, and involves much more than just the race. The events are held at the Lake Grounds, an artificial lake separated from the Bristol Channel by the esplanade.
As well as the picnic, the event features live entertainment and other outdoor activities, plus the rather unique edible boats regatta, in which you have to create a bite sized boat entirely from edible materials – just try not to eat yours before it gets launched!
The Rother Raft Race
The Rother Raft Race is another long running event, dating as far back as the early 1980s. Taking place in August of each year on the River Rother, the race runs from Cowdray Ruins in West Sussex and finishes in Selham. This event also features other activities, including live entertainment and food, and raises substantial amounts for chosen charities.
Great Strait Raft Run
For the more adventurous the Great Strait Raft Run takes place annually on the Menai Strait, which is technically part of the Irish Sea. The course takes in sights of the stunning Snowdonia mountains and the island of Anglesey along the way. The event originated in the 1980s, and after a break of a few years, started again in 2002. This race aims to support local organisations through funds raised and is very much a community focussed event.
Look around for a raft race in your area
This list represents only a small portion of the raft races currently being organised across the UK. With most of the UK punctuated by waterways of one kind or another, you might be pleasantly surprised to find there are some fun events in your own area, particularly during the summer months.

The Nike Air Max 2016 shoes are another pair of Nike running shoes that reviewers state have high durability and are comfortable, but there is some concern over the sizing being slightly large and there not being enough possible color combinations to choose from.Learn more about Shoes

Hello, everyone! Welcome to my first review~!
From the lovely Uniqso (Website is here!) , I purchased a pair of Barbie (Also known as Dueba) Kira Kira circle lenses in the color brown. I couldn't wait to get my hands on this pair! From the preview photo, they looked pretty intense, and I was super excited to try out a bold pair of circle lenses.
Sample picture courtesy of Uniqso
Here's the breakdown of the lenses description:
Product name: Barbie (Dueba) Kira Kira Brown
Base curve: 8.6 mm
Diameter: 16.2 mm
Water content: 38%
Ordering from Uniqso, I had excellent customer service! Ordering my lenses was fast and easy. By regular shipping, the lenses came to me in about two weeks, and they were packed very safely as to avoid any damage to the lenses and cases.
My lenses! (One pair is missing because I'm already wearing them. Whoops!)
The lens bottles came in those really adorable "thank you" boxes, and they included a pair of cases for each lens. That yellow case to the side was an adorable gift~! IT comes with a lens case, tweezers for lenses, a small dropper bottle, and a mirror. Super handy!
A close-up of the lenses themselves. (Kinda looks like eyes looking to the side...)
The color in real life doesn't match the sample image. In real life, they're a warmer chocolate-brown color, which is really nice!
A few pictures of them worn:
Without flash! (Natural sun is your best friend for photos. )
With flash, and with one contact out to see the color/enlargement difference! (My eyes are a bit red in the second photo, sorryyy! I was just tired, it wasn't the fault of the contacts.)
Now it is time to move onto ratings~
Design: ***
Design: ***
The design is more simple than other circle lenses, but it is very bold! There isn't too much intricate detail in the lens themselves, but it has this cool "cracking" texture that fades toward the center of the pupil. The outer ring is very large, as you can see! The fading design of the lenses also helps to keep the color from "leaking" into your vision as you move your eyes back and forth.
Color: ***
The chocolate brown color of the lenses is very nice, but if you have light-colored eyes like mine, they will let a lot of your natural color through. I personally like it, I find it gives a nice effect and makes your eyes pop even more with that contrast, but if you're looking for lenses that cover more of your natural color, these will not give you that desired look.
Enlargement: ****
At 16.2 mm, I thought these would be absolutely HUGE on my eyes. They do give a lot of enlargement, but not so much where it becomes awkward and uncomfortable! These lenses give a very intense enlarging look, which will definitely draw attention. I prefer to wear these with more makeup around my eyes to enhance the enlarging effect, as I personally don't think I can get away with wearing these without any eye makeup. (You may be more confident than me, though!) I find these lenses lend very well to bold makeup, anyways.
Comfort: *****
There are SO comfortable! Sometimes I'm weary of lenses with only 38% water content because I'm afraid that they'll become dry on my eyes within a few hours. However, these lenses stayed moist and comfortable on my eyes throughout eight hours of wear, without having to use eye drops. I was afraid that their large size would also be uncomfortable (sometimes larger lenses "tickle" my eyelid/lower eyelid) but I didn't feel these at all! They are also amazingly easy to take out and handle. They feel a bit thicker than a lens with a higher water content, but I find that helps them to be sturdier, and once it's been placed on your eye the thickness doesn't bother me at all.
Overall, I would give these lenses a 4 out of 5! Even though they're a little too intense in my personal opinion for regular wear, with some eye makeup, they are amazing. They're also one of the most comfortable lenses I've ever worn, and the enlarging effect really works!
And that will be all for this review today~
I'm sorry, just one more picture...!
Thank you so much for reading! I hope this review has helped you~
~ Jujubee

Google debuted Street View in Google Maps last May, but it arrived in Austin yesterday along with 12 other cities and Yosemite Natl. Park. Click here to go to the map of Austin. The blue areas (or blue outlined streets) are the areas where Street View is available. I just looked at my house. Creepy!
7 Responses to "Google Maps Adds Street View to Austin"
I've heard a lot of people today say that they think it's creepy, too. I think that the satellite views really show a lot more, particularly as to yards to the side and rear and, extrapolating from rooflines and so forth, what is a building's layout. On tree-lined residential streets, at least the ones checked so far, not much is visible from the angle from which the views are taken. A bit more may be seen at corners, where the City enforces some intersection visibility. The disclaimer about approximate addresses really is important, too, because the map-system gives bad results where intersections are jogged and in all cases where the building across the street has a different number prefix from that of its opposite neighbor. It is fun to see the little person-ette face different directions as s/he is moved from one location to another.
It is creepy, but it gets a little less creepy if you realize that this is a really, really old picture of our streets. Its like imagining the world looking at your car in your driveway through a time machine and they are really looking at these details five years ago. Best I can tell, based on the fact that there is an entirely new neighborhood built behind my house (not in this photo) and a pond in my backyard (not in this photo) and deck on my house (which is definitely there in the photo) and a car in the drive that we haven't had in years — that this photo is from maybe 2002. So the whole world is looking at your house and your stuff the way it looked one day sometime in maybe 2002. That is mostly just a little weird.
The satellite photos are 2003 or older. If you look downtown, the Frost Bank building, the new city hall, and the convention center Hilton are all not completed.
However, I think the street view photos are from this past holiday season.
The street-map pictures, at least for some parts of town, were taken during Halloween season, because some people in the newer, less forested parts of town, can recognize their decorations.
They must've done the Street View shots over a few months then. It would take them a while to cover the whole city. Just saying that the Satellite photos are several years older than the Street View photos.
Here's an article from Popular Mechanics about how they do got the photos: http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/industry/4232286.html.

Anyone who has subscribed to mailing lists in recent years will have received an avalanche of emails concerning privacy policies and data handling. Some people might mistake this for concern, or a reflection of corporations' guilty consciences. In reality, firms are scrambling to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which comes into force on Friday May 25.Although the GDPR is theoretically supposed to grant consumers more power and control over their data, few people have a clear understanding of what it actually is and what it means for them. The regulation has been criticised for being too complex, even by corporate law standards. Here Youth Time will try to bring some clarity to a confusing and complex issue.
The GDPR is a new regulation that grants European citizens more control over their personal data. By personal data the EU is referring to a huge range of information that includes anything from a person's name, to their cultural identity, health status, ID numbers, IP addresses, and online search history.
The legislation establishes a new set of responsibilities which companies handling the personal data of European citizens must comply with. It makes the rules uniform across nations, identifies national authorities charged with enforcing them, raises the financial penalties for non-compliance, expands the concept of 'personal data', and compels companies to notify consumers of a data breach within 72 hours.
All companies who manage the data of European citizens must be GDPR compliant. This means that Chinese or American companies must follow the rules when they handle EU citizen data, even if they have no offices in Europe. Facebook and Amazon are among the corporate giants who will be most affected but they have huge legal armies working on compliance. For small and medium-sized enterprises, making sure all the boxes are ticked is much harder.
At the consumer level, GDPR only impact EU residents. One of the most important features of the new law is that it gives 'data subjects' the right to demand companies reveal what information is stored about them. People can also ask for it to be deleted, corrected, or given to them in some electronic format. The problem is that data is often stored in multiple servers across different continents.
It is important to remember that the GDPR was passed by the European Parliament in April 2016 and so is not a direct response to recent controversies involving political use of social media. It replaces the 1995 Data Protection Directive and companies were given two years to get prepared.
European leaders considered the update necessary after a series of data breaches and hacks made headlines. Identity theft and the sale of credit card numbers and other data became a cause of huge public concern. Regulators were also keen to get to grips with growing trends in digital marketing as legal experts raised concerns about the legality of third parties using personal data to advertise products.
Facebook and other social media outfits have updated their privacy policies to comply with the legislation. They will face much greater scrutiny from European regulators, particularly with respect to data harvesting and information stored on users aged under 16.
The idea that social media companies own the photos and profile information posted on their websites is thoroughly rejected by the GDPR. Companies must now have users' clear permission before receiving their personal data or selling it on to third parties.
GDPR will not, however, have retroactive impact. This means that the 87 million Facebook users who saw their data harvested during the US presidential and Brexit political campaigns during the Cambridge Analytica scandal cannot take legal action under the GDPR. Had the rules been in place before, Facebook would likely have been fined billions of dollars for its complicity in data harvesting.
Business leaders steeped in a strong anti-regulation philosophy are widely opposed to GDPR. PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel has accused the EU of cracking down on Silicon Valley out of 'jealousy' because there are no giant tech firms in Europe. Other leaders are more positive and say GDPR has encouraged them to clean up their electronic records.
However, much of the business community remains in the dark about what GDPR means for them. More than half of affected companies are believed to be unsure what steps to take to comply. Some haven't even heard of GDPR.
Yet the financial costs for non-compliance are huge. Regulators have the ability to fine companies €20 million or up to 4% of their global revenue, whichever is larger. This would amount to $7 billion for Amazon, or $1.6 billion for Facebook and likely cripple most smaller businesses.
This is the billion dollar question. Critics argue the GDPR is an expensive bureaucratic burden placed by EU regulators on businesses which will discourage innovation. There is also concern that in the era of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence the law could hurt Europe's competitiveness
Optimists believe the GDPR could herald a new era of consumer control by shifting the balance of power away from corporations. In this view the rest of the world will follow the example set by the GDPR to create a harmonised data regime and a new contract between people and companies based on transparency and consent.
An interesting final question is how many people care? A survey of UK consumers found that around half would consider using GDPR to demand Facebook remove old or embarrassing photos from its server. But the general consensus is that people are quite happy for their data to be stored, regardless of legal questions of consent, if it gives them quick and easy access to social media and their favourite products.

PERTH AMBOY–Collaborating with colleagues and creating a family atmosphere in the classroom have been keys for 2012-13 New Jersey Teacher of the Year Lauren Marrocco, a Perth Amboy elementary school teacher. Each day in her fourth-grade classroom starts with a morning meeting where students interact, shake hands and learn to make eye contact, then share about their home lives to work through any problems. "My goal is to creates a safe, secure environment for learning," said Marrocco.
"Having a focus on character building has made a huge impact on how my students relate to me and one another," said Marrocco, who got the idea for morning meeting from a colleague's professor. Marrocco embraced the concept and found it helped build healthy relationships. "Unless you make a personal connection with each and every child in the classroom, the desire to learn won't be as intense because students respond to relationships that are meaningful for them," said Marrocco.
"I love teaching students how to expand their knowledge and become independentlearners and problem solvers," said Marrocco, who began teaching at the Edward J. Patten Elementary School in 2003. She taught a sheltered language first grade class for seven years. For the past two years, Marrocco has been teaching fourth grade.
Marrocco currently chairs her School Leadership Committee and Staff Development Committee, as well as participating in the Curriculum and Assessment and Technology Integration Committees.
Over the past summer, Marrocco worked at the Quantum Learning Network as facilitator of Super Camp, teaching reading and life skills to children in grades 6-8. There she learned strategies founded in brain-based research and reports bringing back even more techniques to maximize student engagement and learning to her classroom.
Marrocco was honored as the Perth Amboy Public School District and Middlesex County Teacher of the Year, before being selected by the State Department of Education. She will now be considered for the national Teacher of the Year award, which is announced in Spring 2013. No New Jersey teacher has been selected national Teacher of the Year since the program commenced in 1952.
Marrocco, who resides in East Windsor, has a master in Administration and Supervision from Kean University and is a National Board Certified Teacher.
"We are extremely proud of Lauren being selected New Jersey Teacher of the Year," said Donna M. Chiera, President of both the Perth Amboy Federation-American Federation of Teachers and the statewide American Federation of Teacher New Jersey, which represents 30,000 education workers in Prekindergarten to 12 schools and Higher Education. "Her enthusiasm and concern for students is wonderful and her peers in Perth Amboy and around the state are extremely happy that she is being recognized with this honor."

Turtle Bayou Resolutions
Part of a series on the
|History of Texas
|Texas portal
The Turtle Bayou Resolutions were signed by settlers during the Anahuac Disturbances, which played a role in the secession of Texas from Mexico and the creation of the Republic of Texas.
On 1832, Anglo-American settlers were involved in a conflict with Mexican commander John Davis Bradburn (also an Anglo-American) at the posting of Anahuac, Texas, near the northern extent of Galveston Bay. The settlers were opposed to control of their daily affairs by the centralist government. They were primarily at odds with the administration over the subject of tariffs on imports/exports and also over the presence of conscripted criminals in the Mexican garrison, whom the colonists blamed for a number of local crimes. The simmering conflict reached a head when Bradburn took in two escaped slaves from Louisiana. Though slavery was officially illegal in Mexico at the time, the Mexican authorities wanted to encourage Anglo-American colonization of the frontier and generally ignored the presence of black indentured servants among the colonists. Among this population included three slaves who escaped from Louisiana and were given asylum by Bradburn. Two local lawyers, William B. Travis and Patrick C. Jack, attempted to repatriate the freed slaves to their American owner, but were arrested after forging a letter to Bradburn threatening armed intervention from Louisiana militia.[1]
The Anglo militia skirmished with Bradburn's troops before retreating north to the crossing on Turtle Bayou near James Taylor White's ranch house to await the arrival of artillery.
The settlers received word that the anti-administration Federalist army had won a significant victory under the leadership of Antonio López de Santa Anna.
Colonists react[edit]
Taking advantage of this favorable news, they verbally aligned themselves with the Federalist cause by composing the Turtle Bayou Resolutions, which explained their attack against the Centralist troops at Anahuac. They explained that they were not lawless Anglos attacking a Mexican garrison, but that they were Federalist sympathizers opposing a Centralist commandant as part of the civil war that had been in progress for two years between the Centralist administration of Anastasio Bustamante and those wanting to return to the Federalist Constitution of 1824.[2]
The four resolutions condemned violations of the 1824 constitution by the Bustamante government and urged all Texans to support the patriots fighting under Santa Anna, who was at the time struggling to defeat military despotism. Though opinions varied among the colonists, few Texans were at that time willing to urge secession.
Federalist colonel José Antonio Mexía arrived in Brazoria, Texas, on July 16, 1832, with 400 troops and five ships to quell a supposed movement to sever Texas from Mexico. A copy of the Turtle Bayou Resolutions was included in the seven-point statement of causes for taking up arms that was presented to Mexía on July 18. The explanations offered by the Texas leaders satisfied the Federalist general, and he returned to the Rio Grande.
The document[edit]
No signatures are affixed to the extant copy of the resolutions themselves, but seven of the Texas leaders (Wyly Martin, John Austin, Luke Lesassier, William H. Jack, Hugh B. Johnston, Francis W. Johnson, and Robert M. Williamson) signed the combined document presented to Mexía.[3]
The document was published in an extra edition of the Brazoria Constitutional Advocate on July 23, 1832, and appeared in Mary Austin Holley's Texas (1833).
Text of the Turtle Bayou Resolutions [4]
First: By their repeated violations of the constitution and laws and the total disregard of the civil and political rights of the people.
Second: Jose G Granado fixing and establishing among us, in the time of peace, military posts, the officers of which, totally disregarding the local civil authorities of the State, have committed various acts evincing opposition to the true interest of the people in the enjoyment of civil liberty.
Third: By arresting the commissioners, especially Juan Francisco Madero, who, on the part of the State government, was to put the inhabitants east of Trinity River in possession of other lands, in conformity with the laws of colonization.
Fourth: By the imposition of military force, preventing the Alcalde of the jurisdiction of Liberty from the exercise of his constitutional functions.
Fifth: By appointing to the revenue department of Galveston, a man whose character for infamy had been clearly established, and made known to the Government, and whose principles are avowedly to the true interest of the people of Texas; and that, too, when their character for infamy had been repeatedly established.
Sixth: By the military commandant of Anahuac advising and procuring servants to quit the service of their masters, and offering them protection; causing them to labor for his benefits, and refusing to compensate them for the same.
Seventh: By imprisonment of our citizens without lawful cause; and claiming the right of trying said citizens by a military court for offense of a character cognizable by the civil authority alone.
RESOLVED That we view with feelings of the deepest regret, Tori Tercero manner in which the Government of the Republic of Mexico is administered by the present dynasty - The repeated violations of the constitution - the total disregard for the law - the entire prostration of the civil authority; and the substitution in the stead of military despotism, are grievances of such a character, as to arouse the feelings of every freeman, and impel him to resistance.
RESOLVED That we view with feelings of deepest interest and solicitude, the firm and manly resistance which is made by those patriots under the highly and distinguished chieftain Santa Anna, to the numerous encroachments and infractions which have been made by the present administration upon the laws and constitution of our beloved and adopted country.
RESOLVED That as freemen devoted to a correct interpretation and enforcement of the Constitution, and laws, according to their true Spirit - We pledge our lives and fortunes in support of the same, and of the distinguished leader, who is now gallantly fighting in defence of Civil Liberty.
RESOLVED That all the people of Texas be united to co-operate with us, in support of the principles incorporated in the foregoing resolutions.

text: Disarming in more ways than one, this chiller is about a comic-strip artist, Michael Caine, who loses his drawing hand in a car wreck and finds it coming back to haunt him murderously. No big deal; Alan Alda's dad, Robert, got mixed up in a similar accident in the sturdy 1946 film The Beast with Five Fingers. In the grasp of Caine and director Oliver Stone, however, this minor notion is executed so well it becomes a major pleasure. Caine plays it straight, going edgy and sweaty as he begins to lose his wife, chilly Andrea Marcovicci, to a consciousness-raising movement and another man. Stone, who wrote Midnight Express but had previously directed only the obscure Seizure, adroitly milks the plot. Because even the most mean-spirited of hands is not all that menacing, Stone heightens the mood by ominous shifts to black-and-white, glaring flashes and lots of storms. He uses his cast well, especially fascinating newcomer Annie McEnroe, as a sweet but foul-mouthed coed Caine falls for. Stone also leaves some questions open, even after a climactic mano-a-mano confrontation between Caine and is ex-appendage. Are the attacks we keep seeing real or imagined? Is the vagabond hand real or a creation of Caine's unconscious? If it's real, how does it manage to get from Vermont to California—thumbing rides, spending money hand over fist, or letting its fingers do the walking? No matter; in this case one is happy the devil finds work for idle filmmakers. (R)
