We stayed in Room # 10 which had a whirlpool tub and is located in the carriage house. The bathroom was huge, tub relaxing, bed comfortable and really exceeded my expectations as a first time BnB guest. We had dinner both nights at their restaurant on the main floor of the main house. I wish I could give more than 5 stars for their dinner and breakfasts as well. I am gluten free and they had no issues accommodating me. They are about 15 minutes from the casino which made a nice nighttime activity and driving through the dark country roads was fun too! During the day we went to Bushkill Falls which was close and easy to get to from Brookview Manor. I've already spoken to my husband about going again... once we don't feel bad asking family to watch the kids again!

The owners are nice and breakfast was good. We got in around 1030 PM on Saturday night and experienced a very disgruntled staff which were arguing in front of guest's and dropping some pretty explicit language on one another. Staff was very aware that guests were present but didn't seem to mind airing out their dirty laundry with us in the room. The last night of our stay we appeared to be the last guests in t bye house and wanted ice but couldn't find any staff in the house or, at the carriage house like the sign at the front desk suggested and no one answered the phone. We paid our 10 percent fee for guests services such as room cleaning. Saturday morning the room was cleaned but Sunday we came to our room to find towels and garbage bags for our room service and nothing was done inside the room. In addition we paid for an upgrade room and after looking through all of the rooms it is very clear to us that we have a standard room with no upgrades. The house has plenty of charm but I would not go back nor would i reccomend to any of my friends or family.

This is the second time that we've stayed here. We absolutely love it and always meet friends on our stay. Gaile and Marty make the stay very pleasant! The breakfasts are to die for and we ate there for dinner one night too and the filet's were phenomenal. We will definitely be going back again!

We have been coming to Brookview Manor Inn since 1997, predating Gaile and Marty's ownership. Clearly, the Inn tops the charts on all counts---each room is comfortable, cozy, and beautifully decorated with gorgeous Victoriana. The setting is especially lovely; the Inn is nestled in the woods next to a brook, with seating outdoors that includes a gazebo and chiminea. Breakfasts are delicious and diverse at the skillful hands of chef Marty. Dinners at My Daughter's Place, in the Inn, are excellent, true works of art. The best part is the friendliness and hospitality of the owners, who continue to wow us with their ability to cater to every need with cheerfulness and good humor. Bravo and thank you, Gaile and Marty!---Robin Bushing

Gaile and Marty run a fantastic bed and breakfast. It was the perfect place to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary. We decided to go back where we met at East Stroudsburg University and pick this place close by. It was ideal. The room was perfect, the people friendly and their dining on Friday was exquisite. We plan to go back and highly recommend the Brookview Manor Bed and Breakfast.

This was the perfect place for us to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary. Gaile and Marty were the best host, very friendly and accommodating. Marty prepared our breakfast and they were the best we ever had at a bed and breakfast. We met at East Stroudsburg University 51 years ago and we decided to go back here to celebrate our 50th and we are so happy we stayed here. Friday we had dinner at their daughter's restuarant and it was fine dining at its best. We are definitely going back and hopefully in the year 2067 we will go back to celebrate our 100th anniversary(just kidding). Thank you Gaile and Marty, George and Carol Vaszily

My wife and I needed a quick getaway weekend from our busy lives in Philadelphia. We were greeeted by both Marty and Gail who were able to offer us a great deal on a room upgrade on the spot. Our room was in the carriage house and was quite, cold (great AC unit!) and included a spacious separate bathroom and a luxurious jacuzzi. We made dinner reservations and relaxed before meeting a some of the other couples staying at the bar for cocktails. We enjoyed the conversation and drinks before we were seated on the expansive veranda. Our service team of Jeannie and Rider took great care explaining the chef's specials and getting us our drinks. I need to take a moment here to talk about the food: we had planned on eating at some of the area restaurants but decided to eat at the on-site My Daughter's Place. I'm so glad we did! The food was tremendous. I'd happily drive the two-plus hours from Philly for dinner there tonight. The ingredients were fresh, the specials were interesting and the service was excellent. My only regret is not saving room for dessert! Speaking of food, the breakfast was equally impressive. Hot coffee was available as soon as we walked in and we were served fresh fruit and hot muffins while we waited for Chef Marty's daily masterpiece. I'm not sure if liked the waffles we had Saturday more than the brioche French toast we had Sunday but they were both big winners. Here's the bottom line: If you're looking for somewhere quiet to relax, eat well and be treated like family, look no further than Brookview Manor Inn.

My sister and I wanted to go to the Poconos for a long weekend in early fall. After finding only expensive hotels and other questionable lodging, we found the Brookview Manor Inn. We have never stayed at a BnB but Brookview's price/value was right and we are happy we booked with them. Gaile and Marty made sure our weekend was relaxing and enjoyable! Our room was clean and cozy and the breakfast was phenomenal! They even got up early on Sunday to make us breakfast just so that we could get to one of our activities on time. Gaile and Marty are terrific hosts and we will absolutely be back!

Very friendly and accommodating owners who also can cook some real good hearty and filling breakfast. Their restaurant for dinner, My Daughters Place was also excellent. The flounder special was delicious and the Figgy Piggy pork chops were unique and delicious as well. We'd recommend this place for a quiet and relaxing getaway.Kris & Steve NJ

This is a lovely old mansion with a guest house. The guesthouse is a little more rustic, but still nice. The rooms are filled with lovely antiques. The proprietors, Gail and Marty are warm and funny. Delightful to talk to, and knowledgeable about the area. The breakfasts are sumptuous and they also have a nice restaurant for evening dining. My favorite B and B. We come back every year.

We come here annually and it's always the highlight of our year. Proprietors Gail and Marty are out of Central Casting, funny, warm, quirky and engaging. The rooms are comfortable and full of lovely antiques. Breakfast each morning is sumptuous and delicious, and the highlight is Marty busting out of the kitchen every morning after everyone has been served with a hearty GOOD Morning! And staying to kibitz with all the guests. Just a delight!

This charming Bed and Breakfast with magnificent antiques through out the house will peak your interest in the history of the establishment. The owners were very pleasant and proud of their B & B.. You can see that it is a labor of love for them. The restaurant served a wonderful breakfast (included) and the dinner menu provided for a great meal for Valentine's Day. If there is any negativity, I would have to say that the bathroom could have been more clean and more up to date. However, it is, after all, a home that is over 100 years old. If you like a quiet weekend in the Poconos, then this could be for you.
Risposta del proprietario
Thank you for taking the time to review our Inn, yes it is a labor of love. We have been very busy updating. With a 115 year old home there is always something to update. Not sure which bathroom you were referring to. some do have the original pedestal sinks and hardware which is the charm of our home others have been more modernized with Jacuzzis, and waterfall showerheads. Hope to see you sometime soon

My now fiance and I went to the Brookview Manor on New Years eve 12/31/14. This was our first Bed and Breakfast and we chose this one because of the good reviews, the price was reasonable and they had a room available. I am so glad that we chose this place because it really was wonderful. The place is very pretty, the staff and owners are very nice and helpful and the restaurant inside had amazing food. The menu was a special one for New Years Eve and was a 7 course meal. All I can say is WOW. It was delicious. Our room, #10, was very pretty, clean and romantic with the hot tub. It was the perfect setting for my then boyfriend to propose. :) This was a memorable experience even if it was for one night. We definatly said we will be coming back again in the Spring. We plan on making this a place we will come to again and again. For some reason I was not able to put in Outstanding on the ratings above. But definatly an outstanding place. :) T.M.

To stay with Marty & Gaile. I recommend the B & B the absolute best we have stayed in. If the room is available, choose the KING. Everyone at Brook View Manor was fantastic! If you have ever had dinner at a 5 Star restaurant, Make a point to eat at My Daughters Place on the first floor. Don't know when we will get back......BUT WE WILL!

It was a prefect weekend, the drive was short and the B&B was a welcome site, the rooms were clean and very comfortable, I liked the fact that everything was right there. I could have a nice and very enjoyable breakfast (which we did) and after exploring the county side we could come back to a great dinner where everything on the menu was wonderful. The staff makes you feel right at home. We talked it over and we both will go back again for a visit or two.

Brookview is the perfect place for a romantic getaway. The food was off the chart in excellence and for a reasonable rate. The building is an old landmark and is quaint. Marty, Gaile and staff are great. Guests should not expect modern accommodations. I would definitely stay there again.

We spent a weekend here to celebrate our 27th Anniversary, making the decision primarily on reviews and the listing of amenities. Although the Manor can use a bit of a cosmetic face-lift on the exterior (peeling paint, mostly), everything else is wonderful and in good repair. We spent two nights in Room 11 in the carriage house (with a Jacuzzi) and it was delightful. Dinner on Friday evening in "My Daughter's Place" was truly outstanding - a gourmet feast of escargot, scallops and a cioppino that was out of this world! ...and be aware that the on-line menu does not reflect all of the current offerings. Both breakfasts were equally scrumptious affairs - I have never enjoyed a French toast as much as I did Marty's version. Gaile was a delightful hostess and the entire staff was similarly friendly and accommodating. All around, it was a great stay and I would highly recommend it!

You are correct and we had starting painting again in the spring.A little brighter, but still yellow The porch and all outside staircases were just repainted also. Our biggest project was adding the gazebo and rebuilding the stairs at the carriage house. Brookview is over 115 years there is always something on the list to renovate. Hope to see you again soon.

My wife and I spent Veterans Day weekend at the Brookview Manor Inn and had a great time . The staff was very accomodating and made us feel as if we were with family. We stayed in the Fireplace Room on the second fall, it was plenty big and the fireplace made for a cozy atmosphere, although I was hoping it was a wood burning fireplace the gas one was very easy to control. We really couldn't use the large porch and swing because it was pretty cold that weekend but if and when we return we will definitely take advandtage of it. The breakfasts were fantastic, Belgian waffles the first morning and pumpkin and creamcheese stuffed French toast the second, both days with eggs, sausage, mini muffuns, fruit and of course coffee, tea and OJ. We ate dinner at My Daughter Place, which is the restaurant located in the B&B, the food was good, I had steak one night and chicken the other, and I cleaned my plate both nights. My wife had the pork and seafood stew and she enjoyed both, I can't remember exactly what they were called but the chicken, steak and pork were on the regular menu and the seafood stew was a special. All in we would recommend this B&B to anyone looking for a nice getaway weekend in the Poconos. We hiked at Bushkill Falls which wasn't faraway, about 30 minutes, and if you like to ski there are plenty of slopes within 30 minutes. John & Teri, Seaford, NY

In all, I enjoyed my stay here. The owners were very friendly and outgoing to make my stay very pleasant. The state of the property is quite quaint and relaxing, however, I hope it is in a transition stage, in that,it needs a bit of work on the paint and other physical attributes of the property. The Murder Mystery , in my opinion, should have been included in the price of the weekend. The "included" dinner was somewhat limited in choices and the included breakfasts were very good but again, limited in options.

As a weekend getaway for myself and my other half, I elected to go to the Poconos. I booked the best room at the brook view manor, which while spacious, appeared not to have been updated in quite a while. We arrived slightly later than expected, and Gaile was very accommodating. She directed us to our room, but told us the fireplace was only for ambience, that they had turned off the heat because others had turned on both the fireplace and the AC when using it in the past. Unfortunately, that was one of the reasons I had specifically requested this room,a dn had been wiling to pay for it. Regardless, upon entering the room, which is very spacious, we found that several window screens we not secular in place, and windows that were accessible to outside stairs and the roof did not have locks on them. Other windows that were less accessible, no easy access, did have locks on them. The bathroom was huge, but with standard shower/tub, toilet and small vanity. The water temp fluctuated between lukewarm, cold and hot from minute to minute so that made it a little tough to manage at a comfortable level. There are cracks in the tub porcelain, tiles were old. Food, both breakfast and dinner was awesome as was the camaraderie with the other guests. Overall, I wouldn't spend the money on this room again, as it really wasn't up to my expectations.

Brookview Manor is located in the heart of the Poconos and the surrounding area is beautiful. Gaile and Marty are very pleasant people and welcoming. The people that work there are very friendly. The house is 112 years old and has a fascinating history. Inside the house is very cozy. Marty is a fantastic culinary chef. His dinners and his breakfasts are 5 stars all the way. The room we stayed in was lovely.My only complaint is the cleanliness. The porch should be cleaned off on a daily basis, cobwebs and dirt. Because the weather is so beautiful you'll want to open your windows. The windowsills needed to be cleaned out. All in all, I would recommend this bed and breakfast.

Gaile greeted me at the door and toured me round the first floor. She is so hospitable, and knowledgeable about the house, furnishings and the area. I felt perfectly at home and relaxed. This is a lovely 112 year old house, gas fireplaces everywhere, antiques abound, cozy sitting areas, a bar built into the Victorian tower. Indoor and out door dining. Then I was ushered to my beautiful room with gas fireplace, four poster bed and wing-back chair and private bath. After settling in I returned to the living area and porch to lounge and crossword while waiting for a friend to arrive. The B and B was on a generator following Sandy's devastation of trees and power lines in the Poconos. Not a glitch in service. Everything worked. Marty, in his grandiloquent, whimsical fashion manned the kitchen with humor and a booming voice. His cooking matched his style, elegant, generous, delectable. The Superstorm caused many cancellations from the greater NY area so sadly the Murder Mystery weekend was also cancelled. There were several couples who made it. All were delightful dinner companions and friendships kindled in the glow of fireplaces, food and wine. I will return in January or February for the Murder Mystery Weekend. Highly recommended.

This B & B is cozy, clean, and is a great place to spend a weekend away from home. Gaile and Marty were both so welcoming and friendly, and really wanted to make sure that all of their guests had a wonderful experience. As a foodie from Philly, the food was fantastic, although service was occasionally on the slow side. I highly recommend eating dinner here every night if you can! My only issue was that there was an uncovered glass panel above our room door, so if the hall light was left on at night, the light came right into our bedroom. That problem, however, is easily fixable. I would absolutely suggest you choose the Brookview Manor if you want a homey B & B with great food.

Recently stayed at Brookview Manor - first time ever in a B & B. I was very impressed and will return. Gaile and Marty are phenomenal hosts, and the food was amazing!

My wife and I stayed for two weekend nights and enjoyed everything, especially the friendly owners and excellent food. The inn is a historic mansion and carriage house, and the main house has an excellent restaurant for dinner. Breakfast was muffins, eggs, fruit and a different entree each morning, enough food to keep you going until dinner. Dinner at the restaurant was a nice surprise, excellent quality and range of choices fro a small country inn. The owners take real pride in their place and are full of useful information on the area. We will be back.

We stayed at the Brookview Manor of our anniversary. We choose this place for its historic value, close to shops and attractions and for piece and quiet. The breakfasts were excellant and hardy. The inn keepers were friendly and attentive. The porch with the swing is romantic and peaceful. My only negative is that in the description they state that they are off the road. True but not far enough. They are more up a hill and not far enough from the road where we heard cars, trucks and motorcycles. However between them you can hear the sound of the babbling river. A must stay. Can't wait to go back.

Having needed a nice quiet atmosphere to conduct a meeting and do some group writing, this place stood out. Gail and Marty are extremely friendly, and met our few needs without delay. This place has a charm about it that has to be experienced, and the breakfast was nothing short of delicious. We will definitely be returning for a murder mystery weekend and making this place a must attend on a regular basis.

The owners were friendly, courteous, and accommodating. It was quiet, relaxing, and I wish we could do this once a month. The breakfasts were delicious and they give you a lot. The restaurant inside the Bed and Breakfast was outstanding. It was one of the best places I've eaten. The rooms were beautiful and clean and everyone there was friendly. I would recommend this place to anyone!

We were a little bit hesitant at first about staying at a bread and breakfast, since we've never dont it before. But it turned out to be a nice weekend. The room was comfortable and relaxing and the breakfast was tasty. No complaints and I'd definitely do it again.

This inn is perfect for a getaway from the NYC Metropolitan Area. Turn your cell phone off and enjoy the peace and quiet that this inn and the surrounding area provides. Restaurant in inn is VERY GOOD. Gaile and Marty are a pleasure as country hostess and host. We would recommend this inn to anyone looking for a close and affordable getaway. -John and Maria

my wife and i went to celebrate our 5 yr anniversary and expected a nice fall getaway. instead we were in for a winter wonderland. the owners Gail and Marty were very accomadating. On Saturday night there was 6in of snow on the ground and the restaurant staff couldn't make it in but Marty opened the restaurant (My Daughters Place) just for my wife and I. Thats why we'll be back again!!!!!

The best aspect of this B&B are the owners. They make an extra effort to entertain and help you have the best visit to the area possible. I should include the staff, as well, who were all genuinely friendly, efficient, and striving to help. Sure, like most B&B's that we've been too, this one had a few minor faults, but the it more than makes up for any possible minor faults with it's charm and atmosphere. We also really liked their in-house restaurant. My favorite dish was the Chicken Melli-melli, or some similar name. It was maybe the best chicken I've ever had, absolutely addictive. Most other things we tried were either excellent or very good. Good wine list, too. And all very fairly priced. Thumbs-up from both of us.

This was our first time visit to a Bed and Breakfast and we are hooked. We could not have had a better experience. The host and hostess were so friendly we actually felt like we were friends staying at their house. Such a quaint place nestled in the woods...just what we wanted. And the food was terrific! Can't wait to go back.

For twenty years in the late 20th Century I was the Postmaster at Canadensis. Many days I bicycled fourteen miles and passed the Brookview on my way to work. Talking to Minnie Edwards, who was the Brookview for many, many years, I told her that the aromas of breakfast as I peddled past caused my bicycle to pull toward the kitchen. "Anytime, postmaster, she said, any time that bicycle pulls you in the Brookview, don't fight it. Delighted to have both of you for breakfast." It was, every time, delicious. Such memories!!

Oh, yes, and the breakfast is top-rate. Fresh, filling, and delicious! The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated (we peeked into a few of the others!), the bathrooms were clean and had everything we needed, the grounds have shady and sunny spots to walk and lounge, and the corkscrew and wine glasses in the rooms were a nice touch. The only complaint I have is the lack of common space to just hang out or chat with other guests. The entire downstairs is given over to My Daughter's Place restaurant during the dinner hour. The food was fabulous, but it would be nice for the B&B guests to have a room to relax in aside from the individual bedrooms. All in all, though, we'll be back!

We were expecting a romantic getaway, but we were very dissapointed. The room was small, old, and very smelly. The wall paper was peeling off the walls, the carpet needed cleaning, and the bed linens were covered in stains. In the bathroom paint was chipping and mold was growing. There is definiate potentinal but there are a lot of updates in order to make guests feel more comforatable. We have stayed in other B&B's that were clean and cozey and we excepted the same from this one. The innkeepers were very nice and I do hope that they can make the needed changes.

We spent just two nights and two mornings at Brookview Manor Inn and we are already planning to return. Number 1 was the breakfast! It was delicious everyday and you know what made it the best? The care and love that went into making it. Chef Marty is excellent! The room we were in was also great and Gaile was a great host in making sure we had everything we needed. Very relaxing and cozy!

I understand that a family owned and operated bed and breakfast of this size will have some flaws in some of the rooms, but the food and service more than made up for that. The rooms are clean. The hot tubs are beautiful. The setting is lovely and peaceful. The food is AMAZING! The portions are so big; I think I gained 2 pounds in 2 days. It's so good, you just can't stop yourself. Marty also goes out of his way to cater to those of us with food restrictions. I received special, gluten free meals prepared just for me. We plan on visiting Brookview Manor annually. Next time, we'll stay a little longer. By Tara Deihm

Visiting our kids at camp we decided to give this lovely b and b a visit. Loved the friendly owners and staff ready to give suggestions and directions. Breakfast was great on day one, but I had to opt out on day 2 due to a meeting. Usually guests in bed and breakfasts are asked when they would like to have breakfast, but this one had set hours which were too late for 3 guests that morn.Room and bath in cottage were spotless. we opted for a less expensive room which was small, but spent little time there. Nice porch and common room for hanging out.

We dropped our daughter off at summer camp and with the drive too long to make it back home the same day, we decided to try Brookview Manor Inn. What a wonderful place to relax at! Marty and Gaile were the greatest innkeepers we have ever encountered! They were charming and very hospitable. They also serve dinner in "My Daughters Place" which is on the premises. They happened to be serving dinner that night and so we stayed. We could not have gone anywhere else and had a finer dinner! Did I mention that Marty is a trained culinary chef? With dinner being so outstanding, I couldn't wait for breakfast in the morning. Without a doubt, that was the finest breakfast I've ever eaten! Thanks Gaile and Marty and congrats on that new gran-baby!!

Everything about the place was terrific. The friendliness of the owners (Gaile and Marty) were highly outstanding and the meals that Marty served showed attention to not only detail in the presentation, but the taste as well. The rooms as expected, were not to big nor to small considering the occasion. My wife loved the Fireplace Room and wants to know when I am bringing her back for another weekend getaway. The relative location to the surrounding site (shopping, trail walking, etc) is perfect. Plenty of things to do and see within a 30-45 minute radius of Brookview Manor, with a lot to do inside the 30 minute distance range. Over all, my wife and I enjoyed the quiet getaway of Brookview Manor and are looking forward to returning real soom.

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Brookview Manor for the 3 nights. We stayed in the King suite (thanks for the upgrade Gaile!). Gaile and Marty are wonderful hosts--very friendly, warm and accommodating. Their whole staff is great and they gave us a tour of the property and showed us around the room. The rooms could use some upgrades (some of the TV remotes don't work and some of the lights didn't work as well) but the room overall was fantastic. The breakfasts are to die for! Marty is an amazing cook and well worth getting downstairs to the dining room at 9am. Morning chats with Marty were great and the history of the King suite is very interesting. The inn is very close to the ski resorts, horseback riding and all major shopping areas & casino. Our stay was amazing and we will certainly be going back! Hopefully it doesn't snow the day were leaving the next time lol

My husband and I stayed at Brookview Manor a few weekends back and we really enjoyed our stay! The food was excellent and we loved our room! Only issues I would mention would be that I could hear the woman in the room next to us coughing-not very soundproof-and our room was very dusty. Other than that, the room was clean and I would definitely stay there again! We had a huge breakfast both mornings and a wonderful dinner both nights.

My partner and I have stayed with Gail and Marty twice, and we feel like we have known them for years. The food is excellent at the restaurant, the rooms are extremely comfortable, and the hospitality is lovely. Gail is a great hostess who gives lots of personal time and attention to guests while Marty is busy in the kitchen. She knows everything to know about the area, and what she doesn't know, she looks up. She'll help you plan a really nice stay. And Melissa, the "daughter" of the restaurant, "My Daughter's Place," is a personable and excellent barista who makes a good G&T and takes excellent photos of guests. A good place to stay if you want homey and extravagant comfort, good food, and easy access to area attractions.

Enjoyed conversation with them over breakfast. The food was outstanding! At the Inn, they do have paranormal experiences, which we are not in to, however they did stay away from the rooms and were respectful of visitors. Overall, a great bed and breakfast to stay in, but Gaile and Marty certainly make it that way...thanks for a great visit.

My boyfriend and I went here for 3 nights in March during my Spring Break. It was a very pleasant experience. The innkeepers are friendly and Marty cooks delicious, filling breakfasts and chatted with us each morning. Our favorite breakfast was the stuffed pumpkin french toast... yummy. We stayed in the Library Room, and it was nicely decorated with antiques and there were recent magazines as well as different books in the room. The bathroom was across the hallway in this room (all the other rooms have their own inside the room), and it had a neat claw foot bathtub. This B&B gave us a friendly, quiet, relaxing atmosphere and was only 10-15 miles from all the 'civilized' parts of the Poconos (like parks, the casino, downtown areas, malls). I would recommend this to others and we will be back again.

My boyfriend and I stayed over New Year's Dec 31-Jan 2 2010 in the Victorian room #1. From the moment we arrived til our check-out, the service was impeccable. The room was so much better than what the photos show - it was spacious, clean, with extra 2 rooms and the bathroom was fantastic. The sunroom was a great addition too - we really enjoyed fireplace there. It was nice that there were some snacks, sodas and fridge in the room. The house is gorgeous and is well kept. And the breakfasts --oh, how can i ever forget their breakfasts :scrambled eggs, fruit, pancakes, hot muffins, toasts. We will definitely recommend our friends and family to visit this place and will come back in the summer. The only issue we had was with bad wireless reception throughout the area -- neither AT&T nor Verizon or T-mobile work, so if you can leave without cell phone, it wouldn't be a big distraction. HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! -Yelena and Gennadiy

What a pleasure to spend your first Bed & Breakfast experience with Gaile and Marty. What pleasant and friendly people and their daughter "Detective Noodles" is blast. Besides a beautiful place and great food (I am a pickey eater because of a throat condition) the food was excellent and Marty was all to glad to share his receipes. The Murder Mystery was a blast and we had so much fun participating. What a way to get to know a bunch of strangers. We even got to see a bear in very close range. I would recommend the Brookview Manor Inn to anyone and I definately will be back again and very soon.

My first experience was one of the most memorable I have had in a long time. Thank You All. Julia Punte

Heart disease isn't just for men anymore. Although many women don't realize it, heart disease is, in fact, the number one killer of American women, more lethal than all forms of cancer combined.
That's the bad news. But Kate Traynor, RN, MS, director of the Cardiovascular Disease Prevention Center at the Massachusetts General Hospital Heart Center, has some good news. "There are specific things a woman can do in every decade of her life to help prevent heart disease. February is Go Red for Women month, a perfect time to make or renew a commitment to your heart."
Twenties and Thirties
Even young women can start taking steps to manage their health and protect their hearts. Know your family history. Know who in your family has experienced heart disease and talk to your doctor about how your family history may affect your own risk profile.
Take stock of your health habits. The eating and exercise habits you learned growing up can be either a boon or a burden to you. According to Traynor, "These habits are a part of your cardiac inheritance as surely as your DNA, but unlike your DNA, you can change your habits. Now is an excellent time to take stock of and reinforce what you are already doing well and change some behaviors that aren't so helpful."
Don't smoke. If you don't smoke, congratulations! If you do smoke, stop now. Of all the things you can do to protect your heart, smoking cessation is perhaps the most beneficial. And conversely, continuing to smoke can negate the benefits of an otherwise healthy lifestyle and put you at elevated risk to develop heart disease.
Develop healthy eating and exercise habits. Many young women have an unrealistic body image, and trying to achieve that image can lead to unhealthy and even dangerous dietary and exercise habits. Learn how to eat and exercise in a way that supports your heart health now and in the future.
Kathleen Gallen, RN, outpatient access nurse for the Heart Center, adds: "Many women in their 20s are focused on building their careers, but it is important not to overlook the development of positive self-management skills and healthy eating, exercise and non-smoking behavior."
Discuss your birth control choices with your gynecologist. This is particularly important if you have a family history of heart disease. Oral contraceptives, even in the new lower estrogen formulations, are associated with an increased risk for blood clots, and may not be the best choice for you.
Thirties and Forties
For many women, these are the childbearing and child-rearing ages – busy years, with new responsibilities and less time for yourself.
Pay attention to your numbers. This is a good time to know your cholesterol, blood pressure, and ideal weight. If your numbers are within normal limits, you have a good baseline for comparison as you get older. If your numbers put you at elevated risk for future heart disease, now is the time to work with your healthcare provider to manage your numbers and lower your risk.
Be aware of cautionary signals during pregnancy. Gestational diabetes and hypertension have some predictive value and may signal an elevated risk for developing these diseases later in life. Be sure to share this information with your doctor and follow his or her recommendations for continuing surveillance and management.
Set a good example for your children. Children are influenced much more by what you do than what you say. Model good eating, exercise, and stress reduction strategies for them, and start them off on a lifetime of heart-healthy habits.
Take care of yourself. The demands of managing a family and sometimes a career as well can seem like an excuse to put ourselves last and to abandon our good health habits. But Traynor reminds women, "You can't help your family if you're disabled from heart disease yourself."
Forties and Fifties
Many women in their forties and early fifties are entering perimenopause. Estrogen levels begin to dip and risk for heart disease rises.
Continue to monitor your numbers. It is wise to check your cholesterol at least every five years, annually if you are being treated for high cholesterol. Also, continue to monitor your weight and blood pressure and follow your doctor's recommendations for optimum management.
Continue to model heart-healthy behavior for your children. Bring good food choices into the house, limit TV and computer time, and get plenty of exercises. If you haven't yet adopted a heart-healthy lifestyle yourself, it is not too late to do so. However, you should check with your doctor before embarking on a new exercise program.
Fifties, Sixties, and Beyond
After menopause, your risk of heart disease increases regardless of family history. Your risk of developing heart disease now equals that of a man, and your risk of dying from heart disease is higher than a man's. A renewed focus on your heart-healthy lifestyle is critical to help you protect your heart – and it's never too late to make changes.
Maintain good sleep habits. Uninterrupted sleep becomes more difficult with menopause, but it is important to your general and cardiac health to aim for six to eight hours of good quality sleep every night.
Be aggressive about investigating cardiac concern. Even if they are not "typical", new or unusual symptoms could herald trouble and need to be discussed with your physician. Symptoms, evaluation, and treatment of heart disease are different in women and men. If you believe your cardiac concerns are not being adequately addressed, it is important to find a physician who understands the unique aspects of cardiovascular care for women.
Traynor concludes, "Clearly, although women's heart disease is more common in the later decades of life, the habits we develop as young women have a tremendous impact on our cardiac health in later years. And it is not enough simply to know how to prevent heart disease; making plans, putting them into action, and making them stick is the hard part. If you're having difficulty sustaining a heart-healthy lifestyle, please contact the Massachusetts General Hospital Heart Center. We can help identify resources to support you in your efforts to lead a heart-healthy life."

Creative design talks directly to people's heart. Creative designers must be equipped with software tools that enable them to easily craft and adjust the product's emotional content through their designs,while collaborating with engineering to ensure proper coverage of product functional scope.
Successful products in the market are usually those with designs that elicit positive emotional response from their consumers. CATIA is at the service of creative designers and their creativity. Whether starting ideation in 3D from scratch or from 2D sketches, industrial designers can manipulate shapes with unrivaled freedom and take advantage of a true creativity accelerator to explore more ideas in the early conceptual phase. CATIA fully addresses the Automotive Class-A process with a solution for surface refinement that integrates industry leading ICEM surfacing technologies. By combining the V6 technology strengths, which include knowledge capture-and-reuse paradigm, it delivers a powerful and intuitive suite of tools for modeling, analyzing and visualizing aesthetic and ergonomic shapes for the highest Class-A surface quality.
CATIA Icem Shape Design AeroExpert
Delivers highly productive surface modeling capabilities in support of the Aerospace domain of Lofting and Interior aircraft cabin design
The demands of today's competitive aerospace market present designers with a wide range challenges. Product replacement cycles are shortening, and design precision is increasingly critical. Together, these pressures are making the entire design process more intensive than ever. In the aerospace field in particular, designers need to create complex aeronautical surfaces as quickly and as accurately as possible according to stringent industry specifications. Engineers must incorporate changes more rapidly. And feasibility analysis has to be incorporated into the development of the initial concept.
CATIA ICEM Shape Design Lofting combines the core ICEM modeling solution ICEM Shape Design Center with ICEM Shape Design AeroExpert, providing advanced surface lofting and global modeling capabilities. It delivers advanced modeling tools to create, edit analyze and global model complex surface models to facilitate the processes within the Aerospace domain of Surface Lofting and interior aircraft cabin design.
- Extend your design possibilities by achieving Class A surface Quality
- Ensure adherence to the initial design intent and any manufacturing constraints
- Quickly generate new variants for review and decision making via Associative and feature based modeling
- Extend your workflow productivity
- Leverage knowledge and experience of proven technologies
- Dedicated Loft capabilities in support of aerospace lofting process
Explicit and Associative free form modelingUsers can choose the methods in which to create freeform Curve and Surfaces, thus creating a flexible approach to facilitate rapid creation and modification techniques.
Advanced Curve and Surface Creation toolsDelivering advanced feature based curve and surface creation tools, users have the flexibility to design high quality aesthetical shapes to meet the demands of a stylist.
Advanced Curve and Surface Modification toolsModification of curve and surface geometry is key to refining the result. Whether it is through modification of the parameters or inputs of a feature or the direct modeling techniques available, ICEM Shape Design Center provides the user the flexibility and capability to fulfill their needs.
Advanced real time geometry analysis toolsDuring creation and modification of geometry, advanced analysis tools provide the user an efficient capability to monitor and visualise the quality and accuracy of their designs in a real time environment.
Feature based ApproximationQuality of geometry is key within the Aerospace Lofting domain. The internal complexities of geometry are required to be simple and easy to manipulate. The task of ensuring this goal is maintained is delivered through feature based approximation capabilities. When the geometry is a feature, users can simply reactivate the feature to adjust the approximation parameters, thus influencing the shape quality and accuracy.
Design compliance and templates instantiation to automate product creationToday designs are very often an evolution of a previous design concept, and whilst the shapes may change, the basic structure of the design is essentially the same. To address this, re-using basic concepts such as grills or standard features in the form of a standard template is a common requirement, so much so that ICM provides the tools to implement such templates to rapidly improve and automate a product design.
Parallel commands capabilitySupporting explicit modeling methods, managed by 3D interactive tools, CATIA ICEM Shape Design Center provides comprehensive dynamic performance and direct shape control. Fully integrated in the global product definition process, CATIA ICEM Shape Design Center permits direct access to concurrently active commands, such as control point manipulation and matching. This modeling technique, using collaborative commands, greatly reduces the number of interactions required to obtain the desired shape.
Display Sets command to visually organize the geometry you want to displayComplementing the standard V5 Specification tree capabilities, Display sets command provides an additional and effective overlay method to visual apply a filtering of geometry objects, independent of their specification tree organization (i.e. Geometric Set storage), thus providing the user an efficient and ergonomic workflow to interactively structuring the display of their part geometry.
Expert Surface creationExpert surface modeling capabilities such as Accelerated Surface, Global Flange, Global Blend, Loft etc. complement the ISH surfacing solutions to address the most challenging of shape designs.
Global modeling capabilities to morph, reshape, or scale quickly existing shapesMore often designs are required to be morphed, scaled or reshaped very quickly to either realize a concept proposal or meet a design intent without having to undertake a reworking of the design. CATIA ICEM Shape Design Expert provides Global modeling capabilities to fulfill these requirements.

Apropos of his reputation as the underground poet, Charles Bukowski (1920-1994) developed a public persona of poseur, abusive performer, and violent curmudgeon. Bukowski's embrace of this self-aggrandizing image belies his dedication to the trade of writing. The poem was his lifeline to sanity, to immediate reclamation of daily events, and to the transformation of the mundane into the extraordinary. His poems, short stories, and novels, like the man himself, resist easy classification. Brilliantly intuitive in turning autobiographical material into art, Bukowski shares with Ernest Hemingway - whose influence Bukowski acknowledged - the central subject of the male psyche, a preoccupation with death, a heavy reliance on dialogue, and a marvelous linguistic economy. However, Bukowski consistently set himself apart by his use of humor - Hemingway's tragic fatalism recast as absurd black comedy. Bukowski's persistent focus on the working class and those on the fringes of society, his unrepentant use of drink and scatological idiom - these in the context of his assault on academe and shaped by his ribald and insouciant humor - set him apart stylistically, ideologically, and in the critical reception his work has received. In Charles Bukowski, the first comprehensive, full-length study of the author's explosive career, Gay Brewer skillfully assesses the literary significance of Bukowski's astounding body of published work. Brewer deals extensively with Bukowski's themes, shifting styles, influences, and excellence in several areas, and examines by genre - novels, short prose, and poetry - every significant work published by Bukowski in his lifetime. Although he had been publishing poetry regularly in small underground and alternative presses since the 1950s, he remained a relatively obscure author until late in life. His first novel, Post Office, was published in 1971. Brewer incisively discusses the conflict that came with celebrity upon the 1987 release of the autobiographical feature film Barfly, as well as the relationship of creativity to Bukowski's later writings. Brewer shows Bukowski's work continued to evolve as he grew older; the poetry, in particular, strives toward increasing simplicity, directness, and most radically, a rejection of metaphor, while many of his later short stories are remarkable for their control, economy, and subtlety. Brewer's Charles Bukowski successfully bridges the gap between the relative lack of scholarly attention devoted to Bukowski and his enormous worldwide influence and popularity among writers and readers alike.

New Moon AU. Victoria gets her revenge, and it's sweet like freesia.
1. Chapter 1
Rating 5/5 Word Count 1652 Review this Chapter
The girl stood at the edge of the cliff, only her subconscious knowing what she really wanted. She craved danger; she craved death, she craved the sweet relief of her hallucinations. The bittersweet sensation of just hearing his voice echo in her head was all that kept her sane through those empty six months. Or maybe insane was the better fit. She had reasons to live, but the pain that made her want death was intensifying by the second, and suddenly it outweighed her will to survive. The jump would put her in the freezing cold water, cold like the feel of his skin on hers, but also cold like his gaze the day he left. Icy and bitter, tearing through her heart, mind, body, and soul like her fading memories had done every hour, minute, and second since he left. Death would hurt Charlie, Renee, Jacob, but it wouldn't bother the one she cared most about. She wanted the pain; it was far, far, better than nothing. His voice, the cold, death, all of it was bittersweet.
The woman hid from her target, simply sitting a couple feet below the water's surface. She watched as the girl stood quietly, just looking out over the water. Maybe having second thoughts about the jump, but she seemed to be contemplating something deeper. She took a step closer to the edge, stopped, and smiled. She nodded, shook her head, frowned, and smiled again. Her eyes were sealed shut, and she was like a schizophrenic having a frightening conversation with the voices in her head. The woman wondered what was happening; why the pack of puppies wasn't here, surrounding the girl, and wondering what was driving the girl to jump off a cliff. The little pet couldn't know real sorrow; couldn't know the pain of losing your mate, your one true love. She was just a human, part of a herd of cattle. The strength of her feelings, her mind, could never compare to that of a vampire. She could, however, wreak havoc, bringing the death of the invincible James, far more important to the world than an incompetent, pathetic, completely normal teenager. By simply getting involved with vampires, all of those so much greater and powerful than her, that little girl was begging for death.
As she rolled onto the balls of her feet and prepared for the jump, wishes and daydreams of the release of death began to seep into her conscious thought. This pain would only be temporary, unlike everything else she was experiencing. She could only hope that maybe, just maybe, he'd feel something. But at the same time, she would be happy if he was happy. Or at least suffer through it. Or come to this. She knew he didn't care, but relished in her imagination, the one place that she could be with him. He told her to stop, but she couldn't. If she stopped, he would go away. The closer she came to jumping, the more she heard him. And when she started to bend her knees, he started yelling at her. She smiled as she sprung forward and fell; she screamed with him; he was shrieking in terror. As she hit the water, he began barking orders; stay close to the surface; swim parallel to the shore to break free from the current. She ignored all of it, just staying still and numb, sinking further and further down. As she slipped out of consciousness, she could see his face. It was image her mind had been saving for her final moments; it would hurt too badly if she lived after seeing it. His perfect face was purely sweet, and the bitterness of death paled completely in its shadow.
The redhead just didn't understand; she watched as the girl jumped off a cliff, and instead of struggling to the surface; swimming to the shore, she just sank, motionless the entire way down. It seemed like the girl was happy to drown; she smiled the entire time, before she lost consciousness at least. But the woman couldn't have it that way; the girl couldn't die that easily. Not of her own will. She needed to feel the pain; have some sort of understanding of the pain she caused. And the woman began to swim, speeding through the water without looking back. Swimming deeper, reaching out to grab the wimpy little girl. The one that ruined her life. She snatched her wrist, not being careful with it at all. It snapped, audibly, and she didn't care. The girl wouldn't notice it while she was unconscious; she couldn't notice anything, but when she woke up, she'd feel pain before the redhead could really start it. Ideas were pouring into her head as to how to go about it, but the only finalized plan was to take her blood. It would hurt the girl, and her little vampire boyfriend would be so upset, because all he wanted was her blood. She couldn't blame him; her blood was particularly appetizing. But she had to decide what to do before killing her; death wasn't enough. She had to make her suffer, or else she hadn't done her job.
The redhead pulled the brunette girl out of the water, not caring about being gentle with the little human. The girl already had a broken wrist, her lungs were filled with water and exhausted, and bruises covering every inch of her skin. As far as Victoria was concerned, that was a good thing. She had a game plan for how to make Bella suffer most, and after seeing her on the cliff, she knew it would work. Once she and James lost their happily ever after, Victoria was determined to ruin Edward's and Bella's. Mostly Bella's, though. The little human had triumphed above James; she survived, and he didn't. As they reached the shore, Bella's heartbeat was slowing, but her body was fighting for life. She was still unconscious.
Victoria threw the girl on a large rock to start beating the water out of her. She resisted her thirst as the girl began coughing up small bits of blood with the water, though the pain in her throat was terrible. As Bella finally began to reach consciousness, Victoria grabbed her and threw her over her trouble as she made a run for it. The wolves would be back soon, and she wouldn't let them stop her.
As soon as Bella opened her eyes and saw the red hair, she knew what was happening, and she knew that pain was coming soon. Her chest and throat already ached from coughing, but she knew better than to open her mouth to complain or to cough any more. Her wrist was hurting; she figured Victoria must have broken it while she was still unconscious. The danger was immediate, and she could only hope that thirst would grab hold of Victoria before things could get too bad. Edward's voice was faint in her head; but he was blaming himself, not yelling at Bella. She closed her eyes; the speed was making her nauseous. Her heart ached; the hole was gaping and bigger than ever; she could barely breathe from the pain. It was far worse than anything Victoria could ever do to her and that was a slight comfort. Victoria couldn't win.
The miles passed by with the seconds until they crossed the border into Canada. Bella was fully conscious, and Victoria threw her down on the ground. The girl screamed in agony as she landed on her broken wrist, and the woman laughed at her pain. She hadn't even started yet. She kicked her, threw rocks at her, tossed her around, laughing at every wince and scream. She called her worthless, said it was no wonder that Edward left her. Said she deserved this pain, that she was a disgrace. It had been hours of this, and cuts and bruises covered the human girl's skin. Nearly every bone in her body was broken, and she was on the brink of losing consciousness. Victoria was getting a release from all of it, but she wasn't done yet. She left the girl for a moment and tried hunting animals like those wimpy Cullens, and while it was not particularly appetizing she was slightly less thirsty than before, and ready to make the next step.
Bella was in pain, and Victoria's vicious words had gotten to her. The hole was ripping through her, tearing through the cuts and bruises, knocking them like a tsunami. All she could feel was pain; all around her, throughout her, and as Victoria approached her again, she knew what was going to happen, and she knew it would be worse. She could only hope that as she screamed, Victoria would answer her pleas and just end it.
Victoria's red eyes had an evil glint to them; she had imagined this moment almost as many times as she had imagined Bella's death. She stepped forward and took a deep breath, taking in the floral scent. She kicked her one more time, listening to her scream as each broken bone in each of her legs was nudged. One more step forward, and she went down on her knees. "You deserve this," she whispered into Bella's ear, and then she bit down on her neck, very careful to keep the blood out of her mouth. It was hard, but she pulled away and watched as Bella screamed and writhed in pain. And the writhing only worsened the pain; it hurt the breaks and bruises and the fire spread further through her. And she begged and begged for two and a half days before Victoria finally answered her prayers.
One more time, she bit down, but this time she drained her dry.Revenge is sweet.

The Resource-Bounded Reasoning Lab conducts research on the computational foundations of automated reasoning and action. We are particularly interested in the implications of uncertainty and limited computational resources on the design of autonomous agents. In most practical settings, it is not feasible or desirable to find the optimal action, making it necessary to resort to some form of approximate reasoning. This raises a simple fundamental question: what does it mean for an agent to be "rational" when it does not have enough knowledge or computational power to derive the best course of action? Our overall approach to this problem is based on probabilistic reasoning and decision-theoretic principles, used both to develop planning algorithms and to monitor their execution and maximize the value of computation. The meta-level control mechanisms reason explicitly about the cost of decision-making and can optimize the amount of deliberation (or "thinking") an agent does before taking action. This research spans both theoretical issues and the development of effective algorithms and applications. We have recently developed new models to address this challenge in situations involving multiple decision makers operating in either collaborative or adversarial domains. We are also working on decision-theoretic techniques to model and exploit bounded rationality and opponent models in decentralized settings.
