Planned Parenthood march against Obamacare repeal
"With this disaster of a bill dead and buried, I hope that we can get to work."
Dave Rice 6:30 p.m., March 24
Recent rumors of Michael Jackson sightings at Carlsbad's Chopra Center for Well Being are true. Deepak Chopra, who calls himself Jackson's "spiritual guru," wrote in the July 14 Delhi Times: "After the verdict clearing him of child molestation charges, Michael and his children spent a week with me in San Diego. He plans to stay in the Middle East now. I think being away from the U.S. will do him good. Michael has been through very anxious times, but that's all in the past now. He has told me that he now wants to pay attention to his career and make great music and movies.... Michael is eccentric, but I know he's not guilty of a criminal offence. Let's not forget that Michael is an independent person. He confuses people. He's sexually, racially, and culturally ambiguous."
Chopra, who was a potential defense witness at the singer's recent trial, met Jackson 20 years ago.

Mailbag: How Does Injury History Play Into Re-signing Lee?
Won't Sean Lee's contract be up after next year? How would you re-sign him? If he stays healthy the majority of the season he is a top five linebacker in the league. But man, I would hate to give him that money when he hasn't stayed healthy.
Nick: I think you pay him for what he's done. If he has a good year and maybe makes the Pro Bowl, you'll have to be careful how he's signed. Personally, I think the Cowboys have learned their lesson in paying big money to guys that only really performed at a high level for one or two years – Free and Austin. But Lee is tricky because injuries have slowed him down. Still, if they're consistent enough to be a factor each year, then it's something to consider. I would be cautious in how much he gets because of the injury history.
Rowan: Yes it will, and I would dole out the money for him. This team has had some problems getting stuck in long-term deals with players who aren't worth the investment later in the contract, but we're talking about arguably the best defensive player on the team. The injuries have to be a concern, but he would be worth the risk in my mind. That's a player you can't let leave.
With all the added coaches on the team, what players will benefit most from all the experience that has been brought in?
Nick: That's not a tough question – but nearly an impossible question to predict. So I'll just say DeMarco Murray. He's got a new RB coach in Gary Brown and I think Murray will benefit from a new coach and new voice. Brown has experience getting a lot out of his players in Cleveland. That's a tough one, but let's go with Murray.
Rowan:I'm going to go on the other side of the ball and say Tyrone Crawford and Sean Lissemore. Both players became consistent contributors last

This month's issue is all about migration. An exciting discovery in Venezuela of bats originally tagged on Aruba and Bonaire, confirms their long distance travel between our islands and the South American continent. In St. Maarten waters, Humpback Whales were tagged to gain insight in their migratory routes as a way to improve conservation strategies for these majestic marine mammals. Several Humpback Whales were fitted with satellite transmitters that provide a 'live feed' of the animal's location. On St. Eustatius research efforts are beginning to shed more light on a very elusive bird species: The Bridled Quail-dove.

Explore the rich historical timeline of the Chickasaws from the nation's roots to its present day existence. From the early days of European discovery to the dark periods of settler encroachment, the Chickasaws emerged a stronger nation, one that would once again gain sovereignty in later years. Today, in the days of our creative renaissance, the Chickasaw Nation is flourishing once again.
At first it looked like the British were on the Chickasaw's side. The Royal Proclamation of 1763 recognized the rights of Native Americans to own land — changing the legal relationship between settlers and the Native Americans. The proclamation made it very clear that the land west of the Appalachians was for "Indians, and persons who had already settled there were to leave."
Britain promised this land to the Native Americans to gain their support during the French and Indian War (also known as the Seven Years' War). Britain had massive war debts and did not want to pay to protect settlers in the West. This treaty was meant to regulate future expansion and keep Native American relations firmly in control of the British government through the office of the Indian Department.
For more information on the Royal Proclamation of 1763 click here.

text: KINO KABARET Once a year, Kino Sydney runs a special edition event called Kino Kabaret with this years theme "Game On!". It is open to participants 18 years of age and over, of all backgrounds, abilities, skills and experience. SHOOT FIRST, ASK QUESTIONS LATER. Kino Sydney is an open-mic night for filmmakers. Kino nights take place monthly in Sydney since November 2006. Participants make short videos specifically for Kino, then present the work to a sold-out audience. Each film is therefore a world premiere! The event includes music, live performances, giveaways, an open bar and buffet. Kino encourages participants to learn about the craft of filmmaking by going out there and making films, unshackled by the burden of resources, time and money. Kino Sydney provides filmmakers of all skillset, background and experience with a support network to write, shoot and edit their projects as well as an opportunity to show the work to a large audience. Kino Sydney is part of an international network born in Montréal in 1999. It is now a global movement, with cells in Canada, the US, France, Germany, the UK, South Africa and now Australia. Kino Sydney is organized by The Festivalists: Mathieu Ravier, Marianne Alla & Karina Libbey. |

You can use our edible photo toppers on any kind of cake, cupcakes or biscuits. You could bake and decorate your own cake or cupcakes, or buy them already iced from a baker or supermarket.
The printed topper can be applied to almost any kind of icing such as fondant, sugar paste, royal icing, butter-cream or glace icing. As the printed topper is made from very thin icing dark colours like chocolate may not always be suitable - try white chocolate instead. If you want to use a wet icing like ganache, cream or butter cream then we suggest you make a backing plaque from roll-out fondant or sugar paste.

In May of 1998, more than 70 people representing the varied aspects of the concrete repair industry gathered in Naperville, IL to lay the groundwork for what is now known as the International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI). Concerned about the quality of repairs being performed, the group's object was to bring together those truly interested in improving the concrete repair industry and use their knowledge and efforts to bring about meaningful change. What began as the International Association of Concrete Repair Specialists has grown into the leading resource for education and information to improve the quality of repair, restoration and protection of concrete and other structures.
During its first 25 years, the organization not only changed its name, but it has grown to represent more than 2000 industry professionals in contracting, engineering and manufacturing. ICRI members are directly responsible for 17 unique and essential technical guidelines that have defined quality concrete repair. ICRI has also extended its reach by chartering a total 36 chapters across the US and Canada, giving its membership local and national presence.
To honor these and the many other achievements of ICRI, the organization will be celebrating throughout 2013, starting with a special commemorative issue of the Concrete Repair Bulletin (CRB) (January/February 2013), highlighting the history of ICRI and celebrating 25 years of achievements.
No anniversary is complete without celebrations, so events are planned for all normal ICRI meetings and conventions; everything starts an evening at Chateau Nightclub & Gardens in Las Vegas during World of Concrete, then it's on to a fantastic party being planned for the Spring Convention, March 20-22, 2013 at the Tradewinds Islands Resort in St. Pete Beach, FL. The celebrating winds down with a special event at the Fall Convention, November 12-15, 2013 at the Fairmont Hotel in Chicago, IL.
For more information on these and other ICRI events, visit www.icri.org or contact Dale Regnier, Manager, Marketing and Chapters at 847-827-0830.

I'm sitting here trying to work on a design for the Becky Higgin's Holiday Card contest. So of course I am looking at old pictures and just generally getting nothing done.
I realize that I have yet to decorate for actual Diwali this year, even though it is only ten days away. We still have bats and cobwebs hanging up all over the place from Avi's Halloween Dress Rehearsal.
All I really need to do though is take those down and put away the candy bar I set up. I have a lot of decorations that I made from years past that are just waiting to be hung. If I slather myself in Off I can even go outside and attempt another chalk rangoli on our patio. You know we have no shortage of chalk.
If you are like me and woefully behind, don't worry! Diwali decorations are great because they can be left up all winter. So even if you are late, you still have plenty of time to enjoy them. And, to help you out, here are some of my favorite easy&modern decorating ideas.
Chalk Rangoli| If you live in America, getting access to real rangoli powder can be challenge. Even if you do live really super close to an Indian store (ahem, cough), you might have no idea how to use said powder. I am utterly clueless with it. Also, how am I supposed to keep the kids from messing it up?
This is why I like chalk. It is easy, accessible and won't get messed up when kids walk on it. I try to find a part of our patio that is shielded from the rain, though it doesn't stand up that well to big downpours. I think a lot of houses have a shielded entryway where this would work as well.
Flower Rangoli| Another fun rangoli to make is a flower rangoli. The good thing about these is that a few flowers go a long way. I made this one for a friend's Diwali party and it held up really well all night.
Paper flower garlands| I love all of the Martha Stewart crepe paper flower tutorials. In orange and pink I think they make really nice Diwali decor as well. Most of the flowers I made were using the tissue paper pom-pom flowers. I made shaped crepe paper flowers as well. These are a bit more time intensive so I didn't make quite as many, ha! We packed these loosely in boxes for the move and they held up really, really well.
Paper Lanterns and Twinkle Lights| I added some of these last year, along with big bulb lights and silver tinsel. Martha Stewart has a paper lantern kit available at most craft stores. Bring your 40% off coupon and it's not a bad deal.
Mini Marquee Letters| I made these mini marquee letters last year as well after reading a tutorial at Oh Happy Day. They are a true standout and I left these up for a long time last year. We didn't have a mantle in our apartment, but we do now and I think they will fit there perfectly.
No matter what you celebrate, I wish you happy holidays and happy decorating. If you have any other fun holiday decorating DIYs to share, please link me up in the comments!

I ended up using pretty much every asteroid in my collection to help make the battle interesting.
I don't know why this photo appears sideways here, but you can see the half-dozen fleets taking part in this game. Each side has the same number and type of ships. Note the Firestorm Armada fleet that belongs to Maj. Diz Aster. Go to his website for a whole lot more pics of this game.
The game became a free-for-all, with everybody attacking everybody else. Here you can see five squadrons of fighters converging on a battleship.
The asteroids played a part in the game, with one player forgetting to watch where he was going and taking damage from drifting too close to the space rocks.I had a good time refereeing this game and the players, some of whom had played SN before and some who hadn't, seemed to enjoy it as well. Look for this game at Millennium Con in November.

I adored the Tiny House Cabin!!! Michelle and Peter provide easy-to-follow directions and the road was easy to travel even after rain in the dark. The kitchen is incredibly well-stocked with all of the cooking utensils you might need. And snacks :) I stayed for two nights and am already wanting to plan a trip back! I would definitely recommend the cabin to anyone who wants a secluded, cozy retreat.
whitney2016-10-24T00:00:00ZIncredible getaway! The bath tub is extremely relaxing. I didn't want to leave!
Jazzy2016-08-01T00:00:00ZVery secluded and peaceful. The space was clean and charming. The hosts were flexible, kind, and gave us all the privacy we wanted. We had a very romantic and relaxing time.
Hannah2016-09-26T00:00:00ZGreat weekend getaway. The most peaceful location you can imagine tucked into the forest. The place is stocked very nicely and the small touches make staying there that much more enjoyable such as LED candles controlled by remote. The entire place has been crafted using local materials and design has been carefully thought out. Would definitely come back.
Sy2016-08-01T00:00:00ZWonderful experience. Michelle & Peter were amazing hosts and super responsive if we needed to contact them. The cabin is filled with lots of things that you may want or need but have forgotten to bring yourself, fire wood, coffee, hot chocolate, snacks, even bubble bath! And that tub..unlimited hot water is all I need to say. Also, we made it up the dirt road in a tiny sedan so I don't think you would have anything to worry about with that, unless it was really wet I guess. Overall, we would definitely return to the tiny cabin and have recommended it to many of our friends.
Brandon2016-09-13T00:00:00ZGreat little place! Everything was just as described. Wish I could've stayed there longer.
Corinne2016-07-29T00:00:00ZEverything was so cozy! Well organized, good snacks, good lighting. Peaceful, wonderful.
Allison2016-11-08T00:00:00ZWe can't say enough positive things about the Tiny House Cabin! It's such a beautiful, peaceful, private place to stay, and Michelle and Peter have thought of everything to make the cabin comfortable. It's a unique and perfect combination of rustic and luxurious at the same time. The views from the outdoor bath are stunning, cooking on the fire pit was a highlight, and the kitchen has absolutely everything we could have needed. We also appreciate that they've thought about safety (a fire escape rope ladder in the bedroom!), as its just another sign of how thoughtfully they've prepared the cabin. We stayed in their other cabin with our daughter last year, and are thrilled to now have the Tiny House Cabin for a romantic couples getaway when we get the chance to travel without her. HIGHLY recommend!!

The cabin is lovely. Clean, comfortable, and inviting. Wonderful to have fresh eggs, potatoes, onions, and garlic to cook up for breakfast :-) Paul does a great job at being prepared for guests....the cabin was stocked with everything from extra towels and bath salts to a fire extinguisher and first aid kit. Would highly recommend this place!!
Laura2014-11-30T00:00:00ZWe spent a wonderful extended weekend at Moon Mountain lodge. Paul was a wonderful host and the cottage was just what the doctor ordered...being off the grid and disconnected from the online world. There is something magical about candle light and a wood burning stove to help sooth the soul. We also enjoyed hiking in the woods even with the rain. We certainly recommend this place for those seeking a refuge from the modern rat race. Of course the icing on the cake was meeting Smootchie...Pauls Chesapeake Bay Retriever...such a gracious host as well. Diana and Jim
Diana & Jim2012-11-01T00:00:00ZLoved staying with Paul and Smooch. The property is beautiful. The cottage is amazing. Candles everywhere and wood burning stove it was super private and quiet. Not to mention it's Clean, Clean, Clean. Can't wait to come back!
garett2014-04-29T00:00:00ZPaul is great. He was there when we arrived and made us feel very welcome as always.
Erin2015-11-03T00:00:00ZWhat a incredible experience! My boyfriend and I arrived later in the evening and were warmly welcomed by Paul and his very friendly dog, Smooch. The cabin itself was so much more then we could have expected! the warmth of the wood stove, the candlelight, the stars outside and the quiet, oh the quiet.. What a peaceful perfect evening! I can't wait to visit again.
Sydney2015-01-13T00:00:00ZThis was our 2nd trip to this magical place and we had an amazing time! It was a weekend of pure relaxation for us and it was so perfect and peaceful being disconnected from the real world for a while. We had a great time sipping coffee, throwing horseshoes, playing with Smooch and the chickens, and just mellowing out in the wilderness. Paul was a fabulous host once again and we had several great chats during our time there. I know we will be back again in the future! Perhaps during the wintertime next time, who knows! Thanks Paul and Smooch! :)
Sonya2016-07-18T00:00:00ZThis space is exactly as advertised; clean, quiet, and relaxing. We loved reading by fire/ candlelight and walking the grounds with Smooch. The kitchen had a refrigerator, a 3 top stove, and plenty of pots and pans so cooking was easy. Paul has made it very easy to be a guest here, and he was very responsive when we needed him.
Kaitlynn2017-01-02T00:00:00ZSimply put, this place is exactly right. The setting is gorgeous: quiet, lush, and green, and feels hidden from the rest of the world. Everything was clearly built and grown with deliberate care, making the whole place feel kind of magical. (It's hard to describe without using crazy superlatives, actually.) The lack of pretense is refreshing: no moose-and-bear-and-plaid rustic-cabin-chintziness, but instead a warm and honest space to unwind. Paul is a wonderful host, incredibly friendly and interesting. We've enjoyed long meandering conversations with him, but he manages to balance those interactions with a comfortable sense of space and enjoyable solitude. Our stays there have been effortlessly clean and comfortable while also pared down to the essentials of living simply. Everything we wanted or needed seemed to be close at hand: wood-burning stove, candles, luxurious soaking tub, lovely kitchen stocked with fresh breakfast supplies/tea/coffee, grill, fire pit, and lots of beautiful trails to explore. (Smooch, of course, cannot be overlooked. Watching him joyously splashing through the stream or delicately pulling berries off bushes never gets old.) We're torn between recommending this place to all our loved ones... and selfishly keeping it to ourselves. This was our second time staying at Paul's cabin, and we'll definitely be back soon.

Hosts are extremely welcoming and thoughtful. Very comfortable. Would highly recommend!
Elizabeth2016-08-21T00:00:00ZMichael was a great host! He has a beautiful home in a great location. The puppy Bear was super lovable and added a nice vibe to our stay. I'd definitely recommend this place for others.
Megan2017-03-06T00:00:00ZMichael and Alice greeted me and made comfortable,and the location was excellent less than a mile from my work location, 1st time user of Airbnb and I want to thank Michael and Alice for a great experience!!!!!
James2016-11-18T00:00:00ZVery gracious hosts. We were delayed getting up to Mike's place but were warmly received. The robes included in the guest room are a fantastic touch!
Jeff2017-01-27T00:00:00ZGreat location in the woods. Large room, comfy bed. Michael was very accommodating and friendly. We would stay there again.
Kathryn2017-02-13T00:00:00ZLovely stay! Easy communication with Michael and Alice. Clean and comfortable room.
Julia 2016-12-01T00:00:00ZAbsolute perfect stay with Mike and Alice. Their pup, Bear is well behaved and always welcomes you when you walk in. My buddy and I went into town with Mike for a Pool tournament and it was a blast. All around great time and the equivalent of an $80-$100 stay in a hotel. The robes were a nice touch too.
Scott2017-02-21T00:00:00ZVery hospitable, flexible, well travelled, welcoming hosts who made us and our dog feel right at home. Alice's baking is heaven, unbelievable marshmallows! Even their dog Bear is a real sweetheart and made an instant connection with our pup. Beautiful area, very scenic, quiet neighbourhood close to all amenities.

Patricia was great the communication before our trip really made it that easy. We will be looking to book with her at this same house for next year. Thank you for being great.
Michael2016-09-14T00:00:00ZWow what an amazing experience we had at Patricia's home nothing better than waking up to that Great Lake view every morning and get to pull barista style espressos from that amazing professional espresso maker. Great entertainment system and a jacuzzi to relax in the end of the day. Everything was amazing and Patricia was extremely helpful and always available for any queries
Bruno2016-02-06T00:00:00ZWe all had a great time over Thanksgiving break. The place was clean and things where well laid out and labeled. The views of the lake from the master suite in the morning were great to wake up to.
Miles2015-12-10T00:00:00ZThis was my first experience with Airbnb and it was a great one. The check-in was smooth and the host was very easy to communicate with. There was a power outage in the community during our stay and the host was on top of things. She had already contacted the utility company and was helpful in giving us information about the outage and tips on what to do. This amazing house offered astounding views. The house was very comfortable and spacious. The interior was tastefully decorated and the exterior provided several beautiful decks to enjoy the views.
Jannie2016-10-19T00:00:00ZWe loved our stay at the house! It was the perfect base camp for our north cascades adventures. We especially loved grilling and relaxing in the jacuzzi after a long day and watching the beautiful sunsets over the lake. thanks Patricia! We look forward to staying again someday.
Emily2016-08-12T00:00:00ZGreat experience! Beautiful, well stocked, spacious home. Hot Tub, Espresso Machine, Close to all amenities & downtown Bham yet we felt like we were in a forested retreat. Deer & Bunnies greeted us every morning & evening, magical.
Jenn2016-07-18T00:00:00ZOver all great home and stay. The hot tub was a great treat. My family really enjoyed games at the dining table. The beds were very comfortable. If you want to utilize the fireplace you will need to purchase your own wood which we did. My critiques are it would help a lot to have better knives for chopping vegetables provided and adjust check out time if you've requested an adjusted check in time.
Danielle 2016-12-21T00:00:00ZHad a great stay at the house. Enjoyed relaxing by the fire inside and out with such a nice view. Perfect weekend getaway from the city.

I think this has been my favorite Airbnb yet! Pamela and Eric's Nest is absolutely perfect. I stayed there for 3 nights while exploring the cascades during the day - their place is conveniently equidistant between Bellingham and Mt Baker. The Nest has everything you need and is charming in a way that no hotel could duplicate. It is clean, comfortable, and tucked away in a pocket of green forests surrounding their farm. I especially appreciate the little touches like having a french press and high quality organic soaps. Sitting on the porch after a long day of exploring was so nice and relaxing. Gracie the cat is very friendly and will keep you company on the porch if you like. Pamela and Eric were very friendly and responsive with any questions I had. I am already thinking about how I can go back! Highly recommend!
Brianna2016-05-25T00:00:00ZI really enjoyed staying at Pamela and Eric's room very much. It completely correspond with its description, even better. The room is very cozy and clean, especially the comfortable bed. The simple and good interior design of the space makes the room more comfortable to stay. I sincerely recommend their room for anyone who needs retreat from the clamor of city!
Alger2016-06-07T00:00:00ZClear signs and direction to finding our spot. Lovely, quiet, rural, peaceful atmosphere.
Carol2016-06-22T00:00:00ZI was in the area for astrophotography, so out late, then left early to meet friends, so I was there only a few hours. It still was long enough to appreciate the cleanly designed, homey, rustic/modern apartment. "The Nest" is situation in the middle of one of the most scenic stretches at least in Washington state, with facilities and gourmet dining in either direction. The apartment could be used as base camp for recreational stays of several days, with hooks and storage, a super comfortable bed, dining table, kitchenette and killer, walk-in shower (!!). Communication before and during the stay was timely, clear and pleasant.
Glenn2015-09-14T00:00:00ZWe ran into Pamela and Eric on the Sunday. They were incredibly gracious hosts - providing a brief tour of their farm, and a few recommendations about places to eat which was much appreciated. The listing is very accurate - small as indicated but very nicely appointed and suuuper comfortable, perfect for a few days, with a very usable kitchenette - and the house is easy to find (something I was worried about as my cell phone service can be spotty). Definitely a good spot to hang out if you're looking to do some day trips near Mt Baker, or if you're going to be checking out Bellingham and want a rural location that's an easy commute into the city. I will definitely stay here again if I'm every in the area.
Alex2015-09-29T00:00:00ZThis was the perfect place to spend the night prior to a day of skiing at Mount Baker. The Nest was cozy and comfortable. Solid 10 hours of sleep and woke to a misty mountain view. Arranging our arrival was easy as pie and everything was ready for our arrival even on barely 24hr notice. Hope to be back soon!
Norah & Kyle2017-01-01T00:00:00ZJust right! A lovely spot for two of us to nestle in, and venture out to find nature. We liked the modern house built along traditional lines, with the separate side entrance and our own little patio. Pamela and Eric were welcoming hosts, and clearly worked to make the place artful, clean and comfortable. Eric invited us down the hill to the field to see his cows and the garden. The air was fresh, and we enjoyed a quiet couple of days, including some hikes and birding walks. And a jazz concert in Bellingham! We'll be back.
Katie 2015-06-13T00:00:00ZHostess was quick to respond to emails and left notes and details for the apartment and community. The setting is quiet and private. We enjoyed how clean the rooms were. There were many special touches. The listing and picture are good matches.

Much more than we expected. Every detail thoughtfully executed. Highly recommend.
Dana2017-02-07T00:00:00ZI had a great stay at this comfy tea palace! Loved the hot tub and the whole house had a warm feel to it. Some of the best hosts I've stayed with so far
Tj2016-10-27T00:00:00ZThis place is definitely named appropriately. Maria and Paul have exceded expectations in providing a welcoming, comforting experience at their cozy home. I especially enjoyed their breakfast bar with various oatmeal toppings and tea corner which helped warm some cool rainy mornings. They have made it easy to learn more about local hot spots and workings of the house on a well organized guide uniquely built in to their kitchen cabinet. The Forest Haven was the perfect place to relax after fun days adventuring in Bellingham. I will definitely be back to stay here again.
Becca2016-09-23T00:00:00ZHad a wonderful stay. It was so homey and cozy. Would definitely stay again!
Jade2017-02-11T00:00:00ZWow what an incredible place! This is the forest escape with ALL the luxuries. All the essentials were provided and were far above par. They even have a loose leaf tea nook with some yummy teas, robes, flip flops, nothing goes unforgotten. The hot tub is magical and the home is absolutely adorable and makes you feel instantly relaxed when you enter. Maria & Paul are phenomenal hosts and they will make you feel like family with the personalized treats just for you and your guests. The home is very easy to get to from Bellingham but you will feel so relaxed, A true escape and a great find. My only regret is we couldn't stay longer but we will definitely be back.
Julia2016-10-31T00:00:00ZWonderful woodland retreat for the weekend away from home! We enjoyed our stay from the amenities to the overall atmosphere of the home. Maria and Paul were very accommodating with having robes available, a full pancake/trail mix bar, and were quick to respond to any questions. We highly recommend these hosts and this property.
Murphy2016-11-08T00:00:00ZI would 100% recommend staying with Maria and Paul to anyone who asked. They exceeded my expectations with everything. The entire place had a warm and cozy feel and was very cute. I loved getting to play board games while listening to vinyl records. I had an amazing time staying there and would love to stay again if I am ever back in the area.
Jon2016-10-21T00:00:00ZMaria and Paul's home was definetly home away from home. There were many little touches that made you feel warm and welcome, but also touches that made you feel like you were especially catered to from the flip flops and towels by the hot tub, the bottle of wine to share with your special someone and fuzzy robes waiting for you on your bed. Their home is a quick drive away from great hiking and downtown Bellingham. If you're looking for something simple and comforting, this is the place for you.

Michelle & Peter were very helpful. They sent very detailed instructions of the must-knows for the property and were very responsive when I called with a few questions. The house was great and just what we needed!
Ryan2017-02-24T00:00:00ZThis place was awesome! My girlfriend and I planned a weekend trip to basically escape everything we run into in our everyday life, and this place met every expectation. It's secluded a couple miles deep into the forest and is surrounded by green. And just to add the cherry on top, the outdoor tub was amazing!! Would for sure suggest coming here!
Tom2017-01-22T00:00:00ZIf you are already looking at off grid places and don't mind an outhouse then you will love this tiny house that is incredibly roomy and sweetly furnished. The second you walk in the door, a wonderful warm cedar smell from all the natural edged planks they cut themselves fill the air and make you feel like you are truly way out in the forest, which from the long romantic winding road into the forest we clearly were. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen is pleasantly user friendly and we loved the stump stools and hanging table. If we could build a tiny cabin in the woods it would be something like this. The endless warm water tub didn't hurt either. Soaking while listen to the pitter patter of the rain was pretty relaxing.
Patrick2015-12-06T00:00:00ZWhat a gem! I enjoyed the privacy this cabin provided and the many amenities. The outdoor bath was such a luxury and the plethora of hot water greatly appreciated. The bed was super cozy and the kitchen full of snacks and cooking supplies. My days here were peaceful and joy filled and I will most definitely return.
Sarah2016-06-26T00:00:00ZOh how could I describe our experience in Michelle and Peter cabin!!. It was perfect!!. We stayed just for one night but we would have stayed for a week if we could!!. Literally into the woods. Pretty silent at night, I got my sleep on!. I needed to rest after a long trip and your place was perfect. this little tub outside the house was just incredible. Directions provided were very accurate. And thanks for the amount of food and snacks you guys left for us. I definitely recommend you all to stay in this beautiful cabin. Thanks!
Renato2016-09-16T00:00:00ZWhat a dream. We absolutely loved staying here. It was the best way to end our trip in Washington!
Rori2016-09-18T00:00:00ZThe listing was spot on. The host were great. The house we tucked back into the woods in a nice peaceful setting no neighbors, quite, and private. Michelle and Peter were very accommodating for us and we appreciated that greatly. The host leave a healthy amount of snacks, food, and drinks for their guest to use. Much appreciated!
Janelle2015-11-06T00:00:00ZThis was exactly the quiet getaway in the woods we were looking for. Just accessible with my small economy car, a cute cabin with a nice variety of supplies. It was very relaxing and enjoyable.

Bill and Lisa were very warm and accommodating and their place is absolutely gorgeous (home and setting). We definitely highly recommend staying with them!
Virginia2016-08-07T00:00:00ZBill and Lisa were great hosts. They made the experience so comfortable and welcome. Their home is beautiful and spacious and right in the woods with deer that come right up to the house. We had a great time there and recommend their house highly!
Michael2014-08-14T00:00:00ZReal superhosts! The room was exactly like in the description/the pictures. Everything was very clean and Lisa and Bill are super friendly and hospital. Absolutely recommendable!
Daniel2016-09-21T00:00:00ZThank you so much Bill and Lisa I enjoyed my stay and look forward to staying again. I received a warm welcome and felt more like family than a guest. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. What a lovely location peaceful and quiet. You made my first Airbnb a memorible and pleasant experience.
Sheri2016-07-24T00:00:00ZIf you're looking for a place to stay in Bellingham stop searching, because you've found the best one! Bill and Lisa are amazing hosts who will make you feel like more than a guest - you feel like you're member of their family. The home is drop dead gorgeous and exceedingly comfortable, replete with a private bathroom, spacious living area, and even a workout room. As if the inside isn't enough, the surroundings are breathtaking; if you love the peace and solitude of the forest then this is the perfect location for you. My wife and I couldn't stop talking about what a great experience we had with Bill and Lisa, and we will recommend their place to all our friends and family!
Mike2014-04-01T00:00:00ZIt is so nice to have hosts like Bill and Lisa. They're well prepared, friendly, and provide awesome accommodations. They're also super knowledgeable about the area and can provide great ideas on some places to check out. If you're in the area, book this room.
Zach2014-07-08T00:00:00ZLovely setting and gracious hosts. Bill and Lisa went above and beyond to accommodate us! We'd love to stay again ---
Alice2014-07-07T00:00:00ZBill and Lisa were extremely friendly, welcoming and chatty. Their home is located outside of the city centre providing the feeling of staying right in the forest. In fact, we woke up to four deer grazing on the front lawn in the morning. Had a great stay.

We arrived late, but Lisa was waiting for us with a smile. We watched the end of "Jeopardy" before taking the tour (she and Bill have a great track record with Final Jeopardy questions!) and there was really nothing I could add that would make their place better.
Rebecca2016-06-18T00:00:00ZWhen we arrived they both met us at the front door and the connection was instant. We assumed they were great people from the listing and it was apparent right away. Their home is amazing. A ton of character and decorated with items with a cool story or significance to their lives. The room is just as described. Very comfortable and the views of the trees and forests were just what we needed. It was soothing and yet energizing. If you are up for conversation these two are the perfect hosts. Stories, current events, and local information. We probably spent 4+ hours of our time there conversing if not more. If you looking to just unwind and relax I suspect they'll make sure you are able to do just that. They are the type that is very skilled at reading the situation. I have no doubt they'll follow your lead. It is just the right distance from Bellingham. You feel like you've escaped yet in less than 10 minutes you are back in town. Of course, you'll want to go to town, the food, drink and shopping in Bellingham is an unknown thing amongst Canadians yet some of the best around. We spend multiple weekends a year in Bellingham and have found our new spot to stay.
Kye2016-08-11T00:00:00ZLisa and Al were very warm and friendly. It is a nice rural location, not too far from the main part of town. They were very helpful in giving directions and guiding us where we wanted to go. We felt very comfortable there.
John2014-08-27T00:00:00ZJust the right amount of "friendliness"-- welcomed us and gave us the scoop then left us alone to rest. The space was much nicer and much cheaper than a hotel; very peaceful and quiet; super clean. Perfect time!
Jen2014-11-20T00:00:00ZOur stay at Lisa's was our first experience at on airbnb, and we could not be more delighted. We were met by our wonderful host and welcomed in to the stunningly gorgeous home. The accommodations were as equal to any 5 star hotel. It was a private oasis in a fast-paced world and we loved it! Our room had amazing ensuite with a beautiful bathtub and luxurious separate shower. The room provided far more than we could have anticipated with wonderful reading material, flashlights, clock radio, CD player, USB ports and the entire gamut of things you might need. They had even provided a guide of local information for the Bellingham area and this was very helpful. It was quiet, relaxing with the most stunning views of the mountains and scenery around us. Lisa and her husband where are amazingly gracious, accommodating, and the best you could hope for. I would recommend this place over and over again. Hope to stay again.
Melinda2016-01-28T00:00:00ZOur Stay with Lisa and Bill was fantastic. The Bed was comfortable, the bathroom and kitchen were luxurious, and the keyless entry was very convenient. Bill and Lisa themselves were so fun to stay with. On the whole our stay in their Master Bedroom sweet had all the amenities of an expensive hotel, with all the comfort and fun of staying with old friends.
Tyler2014-08-24T00:00:00ZBill and Lisa's place is beautiful and surrounded by big beautiful trees-it was just as it looked like in the pictures. Lisa was out of town during our visit so Bill welcomed us and we all chatted in the morning as we ate bagels (that they provided) and drank coffee. The king sized bed was extremely comfortable and I had one of the best night's sleep I've ever had in a long time. The room was very quiet and peaceful. I also enjoyed meeting their two cats who were very friendly and sweet.
Krysta2017-02-20T00:00:00ZWe loved staying here! It was a very relaxing and enjoyable time while we spent a few days in Bellingham. Great proximity to town, with lots of great nature places to explore/hike as well. Thank you for letting us stay, for being welcoming and kind, and for opening up your home!

NirajBeautiful views and spacious interior- great kitchen too :) Perfect weekend getaway house.
Patty2017-01-22T00:00:00ZWe really enjoyed our few days at the house. It's a gorgeous location on the lake - pristine and quiet. The house is beautiful, well equipped and perfect for our group of 8. Thanks!
Shawn2015-01-13T00:00:00ZOur assorted family found our accommodations welcoming and complete. The pictures of the home, inside and out, do not do it justice. It is beautiful! The decor is modern and warm. The floors are heated, a welcomed feature in the cold December Bellingham air. The decor is tastefully earthy and cozy. Over our three night stay, we took advantage of the kitchen, the ping-pong table (the competition was fierce), the theater room, the walks, Bellingham dining, lounging around, connecting with Bellingham friends, completing puzzles and playing Backgammon (both found downstairs). Dan had to work one day, and found the woodsy work space on the second floor relaxing and private, yet still connected with the group. The breathtaking lake and hills panorama tops it off. The floor to ceiling windows with connected outdoor patios on two floors are a treat. We definitely recommend this place.
Dan2017-01-05T00:00:00ZSplendid modern newer home, very nicely furnished, clean, and exceptionally well equipped. We typically enjoy dining out, but found the home and the beautiful views from the deck so enjoyable we did not want to leave. We has a group of just four, but the home is suitable for more.
David2015-08-10T00:00:00ZWhat an amazing home!! I led a group guys down for a weekend and we had an awesome time enjoying the lake, lawn area, usage of the house and taking in the fabulous views!! Zack was great as well in his communication and response time. Much appreciated Zack! Hope to be back next year!
Chad2015-07-27T00:00:00ZThis is a remarkable home. The views are wonderful. Beautiful well equipped kitchen. Easily accommodated my family and guests. Zach provided all the assistance I needed. It is definitely on my list to visit again. Thanks Zach for making me fell at home. Marino

We loved our week at the Sudden Valley Rainforest Retreat! Great house, great location, just great great great.
Rachel2016-06-10T00:00:00ZThe home was just as described, and we really enjoyed our weekend there. It's a cute little neighborhood tucked away in the trees. And we had everything we needed to feel right at home. Thanks so much.
Cliff2016-02-15T00:00:00ZEverything we needed (and more) was available at the house. If anything had been missing, the store across from the turnoff (less than 1 mi.) was very well stocked. (Great micro's on tap for beer drinkers also.) Neighbors were very friendly, and the setting is awesome! It's a bit of a drive back to town (20 min), but unless you have a reason to go, it's nicer to just stay in Sudden Valley. There is a trail around the small lake (about a mile), a golf course in easy walking distance, and boat rentals on Whatcom Lake nearby. The fern covered slope behind the deck is so picturesque, it was used as the backdrop for many of the wedding photos.
Ronald2016-08-19T00:00:00ZThis was a great trip and the sudden valley house really was a big part of that. Located outside of town but close enough for convenience. The space is adorable with everything you need for making dinners at home and snuggling up by the fireplace. Kate was very attentive and was quick to get back to us on any questions. We really enjoyed our stay. thank you!
Sarah2016-04-02T00:00:00ZKate is a wonderful host and communicator. The house was exactly as described. Very clean and comfortable. I stayed with three golfing buddies for an annual tournament at the Sudden Valley golf course, which is a four minute drive from the house. Very quiet and a nice neighborhood. The ambience of Sudden Valley is hard to beat. Would definitely stay in Kate's home again.
Dennis2016-09-12T00:00:00ZThis house is just as described and the location is beautiful. We enjoyed walks around the lake each morning and the quiet neighborhood was perfect for our family get together! We had fun playing pool and enjoyed a relaxing time! Would highly recommend this place!

This place was such a gem! It was everything she promised and more. Penny & Todd were so prepared and had so many cooking & cleaning supplies on hand. We used the kitchen daily and were able to make so many meals at home, which reiterates why staying in this condo is so worth it! They had a washer and dryer available for use. You couldn't get this at a hotel. Not to mention the gorgeous golf course views, walks around Lake Louise, and wildlife everywhere you look. Restaurants are close, as is a gym, day-spa and bank. We appreciated that they were only a phone call away should we need anything. We couldn't praise their condo & service enough. Muchas gracias de la familia de España!
Mia2015-08-11T00:00:00ZPenny was quite organized and provided backup numbers in case required. The place is more set up than the pictures show. The area of Sudden Valley is top notch. Highly recommend it to everyone. Just 15 minutes outside of Bellingham yet you feel like you are deep in the forest. Golf, beaches, parks, cycling, boating, etc.....
Brett2015-07-09T00:00:00ZExtremely helpful and communicative! They were open to questions and very flexible and accommodating to our needs.
Jessica2015-10-27T00:00:00ZGreat golf and hiking trails. Incredible week of good weather and close enough for a day trip to Vancouver.
Martin2016-07-20T00:00:00ZPenny was always responsive and welcoming when I contacted her. The condo provided "overflow" housing for the 25 people visiting for a family reunion, so location was an important factor for me.
Sylvia2016-08-29T00:00:00ZThe place was nice and clean. Very happy with the accommodations and the view was beautiful, and the booklet with all the information on where to eat was very helpful.thank you
(EMAIL HIDDEN)2016-06-22T00:00:00ZPenny communicated well - very welcoming and helpful. The unit was very comfortable - well supplied and clean. Information about the unit and commercial and recreational opportunities in the was very helpful. The Sudden Valley area was very nice. Although we didn't golf, we enjoyed walking the nearby trails and through the development. The restaurant and salon on site were convenient, and the convenience store nearby was well-stocked. The condo's location was very convenient to Bellingham. We thoroughly enjoyed our five-night stay!
Frank2015-09-15T00:00:00ZTHE KEYS WRE IN THE LOCKED BOX , SO WE COULD GET RIGHT IN WITHOUT PROBLEM. THERE WERE FRESH FLOWERS ON THE TABLE, AND THERE WAS ENOUGH COFFEE SO THAT I COULD WAKE UP WITH COFFEE BEFORE I WENT TO GROCERY SHOP. THE BED WAS MADE AND FRESH TOWELS WERE OUT.

We stayed here one night before heading to Mt Baker in the morning. It is the perfect spot to cook dinner and get a good night's sleep before a long day on the slopes.
Jeremy2017-02-27T00:00:00ZWe so enjoyed Kristina and Tim's retreat. So relaxing, peaceful and calm. Oliver is the best dog ever, so mellow, he hung out with us long enough to get my dog-fix! We saw Hank the cat catch a mouse in the field. We fell asleep to the chorus of frogs and awoke to birdsong and the sound of light rain on the roof. Enjoyed the fresh strawberries in the morning. Hard to leave such tranquility...thanks so much for sharing a part of your life with us.
Leigh2016-05-22T00:00:00ZGreat stay in a cozy cabin. Beautiful, serene location next to the river. Kristina and Tim were very welcoming.

This cute and tiny little house was just perfect for us and suited our needs perfectly with a full kitchen and cozy bedroom in the loft. Lovely and peaceful rural setting, convenient to both Bellingham and Mt Baker.
bruce2017-03-06T00:00:00ZOur Airbnb was kinda of a last minute Valentine day weekend get away for my boyfriend and I. We wanted to stay in a cabin close to Mt. Baker and came across this cute and cozy little guest house in Devin, only 30 minutes from the Mt. Baker Pass. Even though the weather turned out to be crummy, we enjoyed this cozy guest house. Kristina & Tim were VERY friendly, the place is located on their property but you give you lots of privacy. I'd recommend this place to friends that need a place close to Mt. Baker. Thanks again Kristina, Tim and family and Oliver (their sweet dog that greets you in the morning). Best, Lauren & Niko

This welcoming, cozy, and comfortable home, hosted by a gracious and responsive host, made for a perfect quick getaway into the woods. The house was even nicer than it looked in the photos and Jasmine covered all the bases, making it an easy and wonderful stay. Great value too... Loved it and can't wait to return!
Karen2016-06-20T00:00:00ZThe deck and open floor plan were great. The log counter top was impressive. This home is into the woods quite a bit and Jasmine warned us about the challenge of finding it, so we followed directions and arrived easily. Deep woods location may have led to the rather musty smell which was a bit of challenge to one of us with allergies. The home was organized and clean except the master bath shower needed to be depersonalized.

Skyworth's Affordable 55-Inch LED TV
Hong Kong-based Skyworth didn't have a huge presence at the show, but the company managed to draw CES attendees to its booth with the E96, a 55-inch LED television that features 3-D, LED backlighting and energy-saving technology. It's not available in the U.S. yet, but in China it's priced at 8,500 yuan -- about $1,350 at the current exchange rate -- making it an economical option for those who just can't wait until the market cools down before getting their hands on an LED television.

The last match, between Mardy Fish and Andrei Karatchenia of Belarus, was called off because of rain spun onto the coast by Hurricane Jeanne hundreds of miles away in Florida. Fish was up 3-0 in the first set when heavy rain sent more than 9,000 fans scurrying from the Family Circle Tennis Center.
Sunday's singles were reduced to best-of-three sets because the Americans took an insurmountable 3-0 lead Saturday. The Americans lost only one set during the in the best-of-five series.
Roddick said Spain will be favored on what probably will be clay courts for the Dec. 3-5 final.
"If you look at clay-court results, we're probably the underdog," the 2003 U.S. Open champion said. "But, you know, I'm definitely going to work hard and try to get in really good shape and be ready."
The United States has won the Davis Cup a record 31 times. But the Americans last made the finals in 1997 and last won in 1995. Not since going from 1926-37 without a title has the United States gone this long without winning the Davis Cup.
Before this year, Belarus never had reached the Davis Cup semifinals.
Roddick said winning the Davis Cup has always been one of his goals.
"To know where we're nine sets from doing that, it feels pretty good," he said. "We have a little bit of time and I'm sure we'll be very anxious and ready to go when we get there."
Skrypko, an 18-year-old freshman at SMU, said the match with Roddick was the biggest of his career.
"He's a very good player, and I was very excited and I was a little bit nervous," Skrypko said.
U.S. captain Patrick McEnroe is looking forward to the trip to Spain.
"I'd love to have a Davis Cup final at home, don't get me wrong," he said. "But to me, when I saw the draw early on and I saw what the potential was, I was excited about going to Spain for the final."
Spain won a berth in the finals with a 4-1 semifinal victory over France. Spain led 2-1 after Saturday, and it clinched the victory when Rafael Nadal beat Arnaud Clement 6-4, 6-1, 6-2 in Sunday's first match.
Spain will play for the title for the third time in five years.
McEnroe was gratified to return to the final.
"Feels right," he said. "I've said a number of times, you know, my goal was to get us into the mix. ... Every year have a group of guys that you can count on and that are committed and want to play."
Beating the Spanish, he said, "would be an amazing experience for us. It wouldn't be amazing as far as a huge upset, but it would be an amazing thrill for the team."
In the World Group playoffs, Austria defeated Britain 3-2, Slovakia beat Germany 3-2 and Romania topped Canada 4-1. Australia, Chile, Croatia, the Czech Republic and Russia all clinched victories Saturday.
Spain clinches spot in finals over France
ALICANTE, Spain — Spain clinched a berth in the Davis Cup final against the United States by taking an insurmountable lead against France on Sunday when Rafael Nadal beat Arnaud Clement 6-4, 6-1, 6-2.
The Spaniards will be playing for the title for the third time in five years on Dec. 3-5 in Spain. The United States clinched its semifinal against Belarus on Saturday.
In the concluding singles match — reduced to best-of-three sets because the series was decided — Tommy Robredo defeated Paul-Henri Mathieu 6-4, 6-4 to give Spain a 4-1 victory.
A last-minute substitute for Carlos Moya, the 18-year-old Nadal came through again in a big moment. In February, the youngest Davis Cup player in Spanish history won the deciding fifth match against the Czech Republic.
"This year I've been pretty lucky in Davis Cup matches," he said.
Spain won the 2000 Davis Cup championship played at Barcelona and was runner-up to Australia last year.
"My goal is still to win the Davis Cup," said Moya, who wasn't on the 2000 team. "The dream continues."
Clement also replaced an injured teammate, Fabrice Santoro. Clement and Nadal faced each other for nearly four hours the day before when Spain beat France in doubles in five sets.
The Frenchman broke Nadal's serve in the first game. But the Spaniard, unlike his sometimes jittery teammates, remained unperturbed. He pulled even in the sixth game, breaking Clement's serve. He did so again four games later to take the set.
In the next set, Nadal twice fended off four break points in a game. His final winner in the third game was a soft shot that was so unexpected and difficult to return it brought even French captain Guy Forget to his feet at courtside, clapping his hands though his face showed consternation.
Clement helped France advance to the semifinal by winning singles matches against Croatia and Switzerland earlier this year. But Nadal, a left-hander, chased down most every shot, made few unforced errors and punctuated good points by pumping his fist at the crowd, shouting "Vamos!" — "Let's go!"

"It's a bird! It's a plane!" No, it's Lois Lane. She's the only girl we've featured this week that doesn't have some enormous secret identity, costume or superhuman strength, but she's one of the most recognizable comic book characters of all-time. Lois Joanne Lane is the love of Superman's life. She was created in 1938 in Action Comics #1 by Superman creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Lois was based on a model named Joanne Carter (just like her middle namesake) who would later marry Siegel! Carter went on to work as a ship builder during World War II and unfortunately died earlier this year, but that is one romantic tribute! It's no surprise Lois Lane is such a strong-willed lady, considering she's based a real-life wonder woman! Lois was born to Sam and Ellen Lane who were originally farmers from Pittsdale, and in later comics were depicted as a military couple who taught Lois hand-to-hand combat. They also have another daughter named Lucy Lane. Lois works as a reporter at Metropolis's Daily Planet, just like Superman's alter-ego, Clark Kent. She is tough, intelligent, hard-working, and the top reporter in town! Although, for being an extremely bright writer, she's a poor speller and… well, she hasn't noticed that the love of her life also works with her everyday, despite a pair of glasses. After Clark admits who he truly is, he proposes and he and Lois are married, although she keeps her maiden name. (Can't imagine why this was my ideal when I wanted to grow up and become a writer… a well-dressed, dark-haired feminist whose sister has the same initials as she, and dates the strongest and best-looking man on Earth! Gee, I wonder why I wanted to be her…) Onscreen, Lane has been portrayed by a bevy of different ladies, including Margot Kidder and Teri Hatcher, but her best clothes were in the 2006 Bryan Singer version Superman Returns. Played by Kate Bosworth (who probably wasn't the best choice – she looks far more comfortable surfing the shores of Hawaii…), but still had a fantastic look. Costumed by Louise Mingenbach, who has alsoworked on the X-Men films, The Hangover and The Usual Suspects, she did a gorgeous job of maintaining the classic look of 1930s and 1940s Metropolis without looking too costumed. Mingenbach stated that she wanted to incorporate the prime decades that Lois Lane was around for. Her go-to items in this version are strings of white pearls, sophisticated leather handbags, a camel-haired trenchcoat, tailored skirted suits, black stiletto pumps, high-waisted pinstripe pants and the most stunning silk blouses. Our favorite item is the beautiful gown Lois gets to wear during the story arch (pictured, above left), which was today's "Look-of-the-Day." Bosworth got poor reviews for her performance as the most famous fictional reporter in modern history, but at least she got to dress well while doing so. The new reboot is set to premiere in 2013 with British hunk Henry Cavill as the Man of Steel with the perky Amy Adams playing another girl with an alliteration for initials – Lois Lane! Let's hope she gets a wardrobe as accurate and fabulous as Mingenbach's terrific job on this 2006 film! Lois Lane is one of the most popular pop culture characters of all-time and definitely our favorite human comic book girl! We can't wait to see her reappearance in two years on the silver screen!

We've named some well-dressed ladies of the comic underworld this week, but none have donned a dress more glamorous than this! Here is Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane in 2006's Superman Returns. On the night she's supposed to win her Pulitzer Prize for her article "Why the World Doesn't Need Superman," Lois puts on this gorgeous black silk gown to collect the award – but of course, irony strikes and her article's truthfulness is destroyed when Clark Kent has to come save his favorite girl while she's in this get-up! Costume designer Louise Mingenbach described this look as "pure Art Deco 30s." The intricate beading and a touch of burnt orange in the surprise under layer of this gown is just stunning. Lois doesn't make it to the Award Show, but at least she looks good in her pursuit of another story! Classic Miss Lane!
