WWE '13 Review
Review By @ 05:31pm 23/11/12
In my opinion, WWE has had two boom periods. The first was back in the 1980s with Rock n’ Roll wrestling with Hulk Hogan and co. -- the product was cartoony, and aimed at kids. The second was during the mid-90 to the 2000s, when WWE and WCW were involved in the Monday Night Wars, or as it’s otherwise known, “the Attitude Era”. The kids had grown up, and the WWE altered its product from a family-oriented presentation to one that was more risqué and catered to a more mature market. This was the beginning of the Attitude Era for the WWE, and it introduced us to Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock and Degeneration-X.

During this time, there were many momentous moments, and WWE ’13 features many of these matches in the new Attitude Era Mode. For me, the inclusion of the Attitude Era Mode, which replaces last year’s rather dull Road to Wrestlemania Mode, is the highlight of the game. It allows me to relive and replay some of the greatest matches and moments in WWE history, and the game does a fantastic job of recreating these moments, down to the smallest detail. The entrances, the arenas and even the television graphics from that time have been recreated. The game features many of the wrestlers involved in the storylines from that time, with several of them in their attire from that time. For instance, Triple H will appear as Hunter Hearst Helmsley complete with his fancy entrance music to begin with, but then will transition into Triple H with the D-X entrance. This is the same for wrestlers like the Rock and Undertaker who went through major character changes during that era.

The Attitude Era Mode has six chapters, plus one bonus chapter called “Off Script”, which is a reward for completing the previous chapters. The chapters in the mode will focus on wrestlers during the Monday Night War period, so the game includes wrestlers such as Bret “The Hitman” Hart, Shawn Michaels, Mankind/Cactus Jack/Dude Love/Mick Foley and The Undertaker. Each chapter focuses on specific storylines from that era, and each of them varies in length. You begin with the “Rise of DX” chapter which chronicles HBK and HHH coming together to form DX, which signalled the start of the Attitude Era. As you progress, you’ll have the opportunity to partake in some historic matches, such as the Montreal Screwjob or the Hell in a Cell match between Mankind and Undertaker. Each match has certain historic objectives to complete, such as throwing Mankind off the top of the Hell in a Cell cage, which then rewards you by unlocking items. The game goes as far as including cut-scenes, sound bites and commentary from that time, to allow the player to immerse themselves in that era.

The other mode in WWE ’13 is the returning Universe Mode. This mode allows you to play through seasons of RAW, Smackdown and WWE Superstar TV shows as well as Pay-Per-Views, letting you alter matches and its participants. The mode includes all the plot twists, ring run-ins and blind side attacks that make WWE programming fun to watch. It’s a different option to playing the Attitude Era Mode, as it is open to how you want to play. This allows you to try out some of the new match types that are included this year, like the I Quit and Special Referee matches whenever you want.

The Universe Mode is also a good for trying out all the wrestlers, and WWE ’13 features one helluva collection of WWE Superstars. There’s a nice collection of modern day stars such as John Cena, Wade Barrett, Daniel Bryant and CM Punk along with classic stars like X-Pac, Ken Shamrock and British Bulldog. Like in previous years, there are many names missing from the roster, which hopefully will be rectified with DLC, but I was disappointed with the Diva’s roster, which includes several stars that aren’t with the company anymore, but is missing probably the biggest name in the Diva’s division, and who should’ve been available from the get go, AJ Lee.

WWE ’13 also includes an updated engine, the Predator Technology 2.0. It allows for a much more realistic and fluid animation, and does make a difference with a lot of the collision detection problems from past games. Unfortunately, there are still lingering problems here, especially when it comes to foreign objects. In one instance, a ladder was introduced to the match and somehow got caught in the ropes, glitched out and went nuts. Other areas that I encountered problems was when attacking from the top rope, I would miss my target completely when they were knocked out on the canvas. Another area that unimpressed me was the camera angle. There were a few instances where it would become difficult to see the action due to the referee getting in the way or in cage matches where the cage would hinder the view.

The control system in WWE ’13 is easy to use and understand, and it’s impressive that so many moves can be executed from such a simple system. I was especially impressed with the reversal system, it isn’t as frustrating as previous games and it provides you with feedback on whether you’re too early or late, so you make corrections. The game includes a cool feature called the “OMG! Moments” that allows you to use one of your stored Finishers to execute environmental moves on barricades or the announcer’s table.

The new Attitude Era Mode is enough of a reason to play WWE ’13, especially if you were a fan during that time period.
The Attitude Era Mode is awesome
The huge roster of WWE Superstars
Reversals are easier to execute
Easy to use controls
Encountered glitches with objects
A few instances of missing prone opponents from the top rope
Camera angle made it difficult to get a clear view of matches

Does it have Ryback ?

Posted 01:33am 24/11/12
Wrestling games are a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine, like WWE itself, its mindless stupid fun :P

Been a while since I bothered with one though, seems they just churn them out and they're all shovelware crap these days. The ones back on the N64 though were f*****g awesome. This one sounds like it might be worth a shot.
Posted 05:58am 24/11/12
I remember the N64 days with WWF and WCW. Toyworld here where I am still has the first WCW (which i had and it looked crap) game in a glass cabinet for $89........I should tell them and give them $5 for it.

I hate Ryback - there's nothing in his 'wrestling' or personality that is even remotely appealing. He struggles at the best of times to show his supposed "strength" against the other big-hitters and, in comparison to the impact Brock Lesnar had when he debuted, Ryback looks like a lightweight pussy. Brock would eat him for breakfast and every match he's put over and over again. He can't sell hits or falls and makes each match an absolute bore to watch as a result.

I'm currently enjoying Big Show and Sheamus' feud much, much more.
Posted 03:19pm 24/11/12
Crowd goes off for Ryback though.
Did you see the PPV when the Ref hit him with the low blow ROFL

Posted 06:09pm 24/11/12
Yeah, I watched like a recap type thing last weekend, was the first time I'd seen any WWE for years, and some of the newer guys look pretty s*** compared to it in its glory days. I mean, everyone knows its fake and choreographed, but at least in the past they were pretty good at selling it, now it just looks extremely, obviously fake. But Mick Foley was back, so that at least was pretty awesome.

GM Still Committed to Launching Light-Duty Duramax Diesel

Even in light of tumbling truck sales and the disastrous economy, GM remains committed to get its 4.5-liter light-duty Duramax diesel to market.

GM remains the last truck maker with plans to produce a light-duty diesel. Chrysler has said that its Cummins-sourced light diesel won’t be available until at least 2011, while both Ford and Toyota shelved their plans for a light-duty diesel indefinitely.

A GM powertrain spokeswoman told that GM is still going to produce the 4.5-liter diesel V-8 for use in its Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra half-ton pickups. Even so, GM vice-chairman Bob Lutz is has his reservations on the timing. Lutz claims customers won’t opt for the diesel with gas prices down and diesel remaining higher than gasoline. He says that even with improved fuel economy, buyers won’t see a price advantage in buying the diesel.

The engine being fought over may be one of the most significant leaps in diesel engine design since Rudolf Diesel invented the engine. The engine exhaust exits into the V of the engine allowing the exhaust to spin the turbo more efficiently and quickly. This reduces exhaust back pressure and heat losses allowing the engine to run more efficiently. In addition to increasing fuel economy, this design also eliminates several expensive components, simplifying the engine and reducing the normal price premium seen on diesels when compared to gasoline counterparts.

The Best Teen Summer Jobs

My tenth grade daughter’s last day of finals took place at the end of last week, so you know what that means! Time to get to work!

The fact she only had one weekday to sleep late before sinking into a stretch of nine-hour work days may seem brutal, but believe me — it is!

She works hard and deserves a rest, but she also needs to pad her bank account so she can deserve other things, too. Things that require you buy them.

She considered many possibilities when thinking of what summer job to chase. Her biggest concern was what sort of job affords her the chance to bugger off for a slice of summer when she attends theater camp. She settled on the idea of babysitting because she enjoys babies, and enjoys sitting even more. And because she could be in charge of her own schedule, working only those weeks when she’s available.

But many other ideas were tossed about — and the following represents a list of the best teen summer jobs that offer a bit more schedule flexibility. Shall we?

nggallery template=’carousel’ id=’10′

  • image-25 1 of 9
  • landscaping 2 of 9
    Summer means increased yard work. Overhead is low, just a lawn mower and some gas, and headphones to listen to your favorite tunes. Better yet, several teens can form a neighborhood cooperative and share jobs and easily find substitutes when not available.
  • camp counselor 3 of 9
    camp counselor
    Most neighborhoods have day camps that foster the advancement of kids from attendees to counselors. Some begin as internships and then pay after the teen accrues a year's worth of experience. These camps are often limited to just one month and afford time for other things in the latter part of the summer.
  • restaurant work 4 of 9
    restaurant work
    Many local places are looking for entry level busboys and dishwashers and even hostesses -- and restaurants are accustomed to divvying up the schedule between many people. In fact, this is the best time to get restaurant experience, because if you wait until college, you may not stack up against other more experienced applicants.
  • pet sitting 5 of 9
    pet sitting
    Dog walking and feeding and pet sitting are all great ways to earn extra money, while being in charge of your own schedule.
  • lifeguard 6 of 9
    Community pools often look to teenagers when it comes to staffing, which also can include those administrators who work in the pool office. Managers often hire more employees than necessary in order to swing teens into various roles as needed when others are unavailable. This is also a great way to meet neighborhood kids who need babysitting throughout the year
  • tutor 7 of 9
    Summer is the perfect time to appeal to kids younger than you who need a subject boost before entering the next grade level. Placing signs in the local businesses and ads in area newspapers will help connect you with tutoring needs.
  • babysitting 8 of 9
    Work for one family filling their particular full time need, or multiple families on an as-needed basis -- this is the ideal way to earn lots of money while keeping some free time dear.
  • house helper 9 of 9
    house helper
    Consider hiring yourself out for whatever needs doing -- from party preparation to grocery shopping to light housework and childcare. Leave flyers with neighbors and your parents friends and friends of their friends and neighbors of those friends and neighbors.

Best of luck, to teens everywhere! Happy summer.

Grilled Chicken Under a Brick

Grilling season is in full force. I absolutely love grilling everything from fruits and vegetables to proteins. In addition to the typical line up of hamburgers, hot dogs and bbq over the summer we grill a lot of chicken. It’s tasty easy on the budget and it takes on flavors like no ones business. Next time you fire up the grill why not try grilling a whole chicken under bricks? Yes, bricks. You wrap bricks in aluminum foil and use them like you would a grill press. It helps the chicken cook more quickly and evenly.

You can find my easy marinade and exactly how to grill a chicken using bricks on my BLOG.

Bulgari Resort on Target to Open Late 2005

Luxury Boutique Property to be Located on Uluwatu Peninsula.

(6/24/2004) PT. Mugi Rekso Abadi (MRA), the developers of operators of the ultra-luxury Bulgari Resort have reaffirmed their intention to open their 58-unit property by late 2005.

According to Bulgari franchise-holder and Managing Director of MRA, Soetikno Soedarjo, the hotel is putting quality before quantity in its marketing strategies, targeting an occupancy of only 40% in its first year of operation, increasing to no more than 65% by year five. Reflecting the same conservative approach to the new venture, Soedardjo told the Indonesian-language Bisnis Indonesia that the project is slated for financial break-even only in its sixth year of operation.

Comprised of 58 luxury villas, the Bali Bulgari Resort and Spa will feature a complete spa and two restaurants.

The Bali property will be the second luxury property to be opened under the Bulgari brand, normally associated with fine jewelry. The first Bulgari property operates in Milan, Italy.

1-2 dropping 4.50 units on Sunday afternoon. Amazing, once again lost a two and three unit play and won my one unit play.

Came back Sunday night with a three unit play on UCLA (finally a winner) to make me 2-2 for the day only losing 1.50 units. I guess I can live with that. Maybe finally winning a three unit play will turn things around in that area. Here are Monday’s plays. All plays for one unit.

Syracuse -13½ vs. Pittsburgh……..too many on Pitt tonight.
Baylor +7 vs. Kansas…….too many on Kansas tonight.
Tenn St +6 vs. Austin Peay

Good Luck Everybody!!

Never been the same since the leg injury vs. the Steelers in the playoff game, but now has Fitzgerald to throw to.....I think I heard he's Fitz's 12th QB or something nutso like that?

And everyone's wondering why the Cowboys paid Romo all that cash - what else were they going to do?

Agree with what I heard on the radio this morning that all this shows that the crop of QB's coming out this year suck in everyone's opinion if Flynn and Palmer are getting moved around to start....

The Federal Reserve—the central bank of the United States—is the most powerful peacetime bureaucracy in the federal government. Under the chairmanship of Alan Greenspan (1987-2006), the Fed achieved near mythical status for its part in managing the economy, and Greenspan was lauded as a genius. Few seemed to notice or care that Fed officials operated secretly with almost no public accountability. There was a courageous exception to this lack of oversight, however: Henry B. Gonzalez (D-TX)—chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives Financial Services (banking) Committee.

In Deception and Abuse at the Fed, Robert Auerbach, a former banking committee investigator, recounts major instances of Fed mismanagement and abuse of power that were exposed by Rep. Gonzalez, including:

  • Blocking Congress and the public from holding powerful Fed officials accountable by falsely declaring—for 17 years—it had no transcripts of its meetings;
  • Manipulating the stock and bond markets in 1994 under cover of a preemptive strike against inflation;
  • Allowing $5.5 billion to be sent to Saddam Hussein from a small Atlanta branch of a foreign bank—the result of faulty bank examination practices by the Fed;
  • Stonewalling Congressional investigations and misleading the Washington Post about the $6,300 found on the Watergate burglars.

Auerbach provides documentation of these and other abuses at the Fed, which confirms Rep. Gonzalez's belief that no government agency should be allowed to operate with the secrecy and independence in which the Federal Reserve has shrouded itself. Auerbach concludes with recommendations for specific, broad-ranging reforms that will make the Fed accountable to the government and the people of the United States.

Through courtroom dramas from 1865 to 1920, Recasting American Liberty offers a dramatic reconsideration of the critical role railroads, and their urban counterpart, streetcars, played in transforming the conditions of individual liberty at the dawn of the 20th century. The three-part narrative, focusing on the law of accidental injury, nervous shock, and racial segregation in public transit, captures Americans' journey from a cultural and legal ethos celebrating manly independence and autonomy to one that recognized and sought to protect the individual against the corporate power, modern technology and modern urban space.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher
"In this well-written book, Barbara Young Welke offers a thoughtful and comprehensive analysis...[her] book should appeal to scholars in many fields, especially those interested in law..." American Journal of Sociology

"Welke has written a perceptive and intriguing analysis that not only sheds light on the social and communal effects of rail traffic but also provide a glimpse of the personal consequences of technological change, safety regulations, and policy decisions....This well-organized and extensively documented work considers the significance of such issues as physical and psychological injuries associated with rail traffic as well as the role that gendered policies and racial segregation played in the meaning of individual liberty in industrializing the US." Choice

"[An] outstanding work of social and legal history..." Journal of Interdisciplinary History

"Welke's a welcome addition to the growing literature on how railroading shaped legal culture. Based upon meticulous research in legal records, it will stimulate debate and deserves a large audience." H-Net: Humanities and Social Sciences Online

This Is Radio Ash

Stuart Bailie | 10:03 UK time, Monday, 25 January 2010

Tonight on the Late Show, a co-present with Tim Wheeler, author of many Ash classics, including a couple of number one albums and 18 top 40 singles. He's always been an affable soul and when he gets to talking about his favourite music, he's particularly vital. Starting at 11pm, Tim will be playing tunes by The Stooges, Bowie, The Arcade Fire, The Beach Boys, Teenage Fan Club, Nirvana and more.

Back in 1995, Tim gave me a lift in his mother's car from Donegal to Belfast and it was a treat to hear how the teenage contender was feeding his ears on punk rock, Sixties girl groups and new-fangled rock and roll. He's never relented from those essential principles, and when he introduces 'Baby I Love You', a song originally recorded by The Ronnettes and later covered by The Ramones and re-produced by Phil Spector, you can tell that his world has been beautifully connected. Not to be missed.

Microsoft releases fix for IE bug

Iran confirms that a trojan attack has been found on some of its computer systems Major zero-day bugs are rare

Related Stories

Microsoft has released a temporary software fix for a bug in its Internet Explorer web browser.

Cybercriminals used the flaw to install the Poison Ivy trojan on users' computers.

This piece of malware can steal data or take remote control of a PC.

Microsoft said in a blog the Fix It tool was "an easy, one-click solution that will help protect your computer right away" but "not intended to be a replacement for any security update".

Microsoft said there had been an "extremely limited number of attacks".

Before releasing the fix, the company had suggested workarounds such as disabling Active X controls and Active Scripting or downloading its Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit.

Another suggestion had been to change the security-zone settings on the browser to "high" and run IE in a restricted mode.

So-called zero-day, or newly discovered, vulnerabilities are rare. According to security company Symantec, only eight such bugs were spotted in 2011.

Symantec research manager Liam O Murchu said their novelty made them dangerous.

"Any time you see a zero-day like this, it is concerning," he said. "There are no patches available. It is very difficult for people to protect themselves."

The flaw, present in all versions of Internet Explorer except IE 10, was spotted by Luxembourg-based security expert Eric Romang, when his PC was infected by Poison Ivy last week.

Councillors claim car park charges are destroying town

Penzance harbour carpark Penzance councillors say the high parking charges are putting people off visiting

Related Stories

Councillors have claimed that pressure for car park revenue is destroying a town in west Cornwall.

Penzance councillors say the high parking charges in the town are putting people off visiting.

A proposal by the council may mean charges could soon be introduced in St Just and Pendeen to reduce parking rates in Penzance.

St Just town councillor Colin McClary said "any reduction shouldn't be at the expense of others".

Mr McClary said that the proposed 'pound a day' charge in St Just and Pendeen charge will only "encourage people to park in the already over-crowded streets".

"Locals need to park in the car park because they have no street parking, all of a sudden they are going to start getting hit with a £365 a year charge just to park in their own town."

Councillors in Penzance say the £1.7m the local car parks are expected to bring in is too high - with 9% of the parking revenue coming from 3% of the population.

They have collected around 1,500 signatures on a petition calling for them to be reduced.

Councillor Ruth Lewarne said: "I think they are just trying to milk the tourists without much concern for the locals."

She added: "The cabinet have to recognise they can't just keep taking things away and just demanding more and more money from us."

Mr Mclary said that if the council "dropped the business rates in Penzance and got a lot more shops operating, they might actually be able to generate their missing income that way."

Independent Councillor Andrew Wallis, chair of the parking advisory panel at Cornwall council, said: "This is not set in stone, this is just a proposal and this will go out to full public consultation before any final decision is made."

Waterless Leeds West Point flats residents move out

West Point The flats were built during the huge redevelopment of the old Royal Mail Building on Wellington Street

Related Stories

A number of residents in a Leeds apartment block who have been without water for four days say they have moved out.

Water to all 353 apartments in West Point in the city centre was turned off at about 09:00 BST on Wednesday because of a fractured pipe.

Residents who spoke to the BBC said they had moved out because no definite date had been set for repair.

Mainstay said it could not start repairs until Tuesday at the earliest.

Flat owner Tim Arnott said he had moved in with his parents in York.

"It's completely horrendous. You just can't live like that.

"I heard that it's going to be another couple of days to fix and that wasn't even a definite time scale either, it was just an estimate."

'New problem'

Rob Wilson, who rents an apartment in the affected block, said he and other tenants had moved to nearby hotels until the issues were resolved.

"I've been following a blog which was set up by residents. I've actually got more information from that than I have from Mainstay. They haven't communicated much."

A statement on Mainstay's website said a secondary pipe burst on Saturday had caused the delay.

"The water supply was reinstated at 10am (on Saturday), and pressure was gradually being built up.

"All was in order for 75 minutes, however at 11.15am a new problem arose that has resulted in the water supply being disconnected once more.

"We apologise for this and realise the inconvenience this causes you.

"Regrettably, and after much consideration, it has been confirmed to us that we will not be able to begin any reinstatement works until Tuesday 8th May 2012, at the earliest.

"This is dependent upon the availability of parts and fittings, which won't be known until Tuesday morning."

The company added that it was providing drinking water and portable toilets.

Horrid recipe to say the least. Orange kills the dish.

Followed the recipe exactly but was disappointed with the result, the flavour of the roast veg and spices was overpowered by the orange and wine so I would probably just use the zest and maybe 100 ml of wine if I were to make it again. I added some salt so it was OK.

Follow recipe exactly and it tasted just great! I am surprised with the negative comments. My guests all loved this dish... I didn't read the comments before making this dish otherwise I would not have made it.

I too made a few changes, which I think really made the difference. There was no fennel or fennel seeds available where I live so I used butternut squash instead and used a little tarragon instead of the fennel seeds to keep the slight linqourise/anissed flavour. This was probably why I didn't find the issues with the fennel taste clashing as other people mentioned. Other than that though i left everything else as stated.
I was very apprehensive when i made the wine sauce as it tasted so strongly of the wine. However, once I put in the veg and left it for a few hours to 'mature' it was really lovely when we had it that evening and the leftovers the next day.

Made this last night and had to make a few adaptations to the sauce. The orange was quite strong and bitter in it, added cumin powder, spiced paprika powder, chilli, ground coriander and worcester sauce.
It may have been down to the face that the oranges were not great, but defiantly needs spices in the sauce. Also tried leeks in the veg mix and worked great!

I tried this dish last weekend and it was GREAT. I quite like the addition of wine, which gave an interesting taste to the dish (avoids the tomatoes to be too overpowering). great with the couscous and toasted almonds!

I made a few adaptations:
1. I curshed the cumin, fennel and corriander seeds, and used powdered cinnamon.
2. cut the fennel into smaller chunks, as it's quite a strong taste.
3. used vegetable stock, instead of red wine,
4. added a little fresh green chillie
5. served with rice rather then couscous

I tried this recipe after seeing it in the May edition of Good Food Magazine. I was deeply disappointed with the end result. We often eat middle eastern inspired dishes but have never tasted anything like this. The combination of wine, cinnamon and orange gave the tagine a rather unpleasant Mulled wine undertone. This clashed with the fennel rather than complimented it. It took the addition of new flavours to mask this taste and make the dish palatable. Deeply disappointed!

Report is flawed

Dear Sir:

After reading Enbridge’s Janet Holder’s recent full back-page commendation of the Joint Review Panel’s Northern Gateway report, I wondered how she sleeps at night, given what she has to sign her name to.

Ms. Holder, or someone writing for her, noted that Northern Gateway has had “the most comprehensive, scientific review in Canadian pipeline history.”  Given that the panel did not see the held-back report on diluted bitumen’s behavior in water (and likely others, too), and given the general approach to science of the current regimes in Alberta and Ottawa, we must wonder at Ms. Holder’s, or her writer’s, ability to gauge the level of competence in other pipeline reviews.

That science should now also include the new University of Toronto report on the underestimation of oil sands pollution and health risk. Further, ongoing global climate science has to be recognized for never reversing its objection to oil sands exploitation.

Ms. Holder also claims that the panel concludes “Canada and Canadians would be better off” with Northern Gateway and that the panel’s report reflects the “input of thousands of British Columbians and Canadians.”

Given that such a “better” is so loaded with bias it deserves ridicule, and given that the input of those thousands was overwhelmingly negative, we have to wonder what pinata Ms. Holder, or her writer, has been flailing at with her pen. That input should now also include the 10 lawsuits, and counting, that are now challenging the panel’s recommendation. It should also just be stated honestly.

Ms. Holder concludes that “Building a better pipeline isn’t easy.” Harder still: to accept that it won’t be built.

Dr. David

OK, I Get The MJ Thing, But This Is Ridiculous

At the end of the day the people buying these cards at those prices obviously have disposable income.
I think its great for the hobby and can only make the thrill of pulling a hi end MJ from a pack, worth the insane amount of money wasted on buying packs/boxes.
Not only that, everytime a card sells for a premium price, it sets the market and raises its demand.
If we didn't have people in the hobby fighting to get those kind of cards and pay big money to get them, then we would see a huge decrease in value of the cards we already own.

Yeah, I get that ... but $2,000+ ???

My post is more about relevance/common sense than an explanation — $2,000+ for an insert?

Last April, I saw one sell for $112.75 on ebay. I don't normally keep track of his sales, but I'm sure if you stick yours on ebay, it will end closer to $100 than $10.

I'm heading into the garage RIGHT NOW ... thanks, Mike! LOL

Old world elegance and hospitality

4.8 on July 07, 2014

My wife and I spent three nights surrounding our 30th anniversary at the Old Monterey Inn. The surroundings were inviting and the hospitality warm and attentive. What was surprising was the sense of privacy, almost like being at home. We had contact with the proprietor when we wanted it and contact with other guests at meals but otherwise we could be alone almost anywhere we went, inside and out. Katie, the proprietor takes wonderful care in the garden and in attending to guests needs. The breakfasts were spectacular and were served in the garden or in the dining room depending on the weather. We stayed in the Ashford Room which was the master suite and it was more than we could ask for. In fact, it was a complementary upgrade from one of the smaller rooms which made the visit even better. Although the Inn is outside the center of town, we easily walked to Fisherman's Wharf and strolled a portion of the Path of History which starts just a couple blocks away. For us, this was a special occasion but we will be looking for another one so we can go back.

Wonderful weekend getaway

4.8 on April 21, 2014

My husband and I arrived the inn quite a bit earlier than the usual check-in time. Since the room was available and ready, Katy, the inn's owner let us check in. We had the Chawton for 2 nights. The room was small, but the size made it cozy especially when the fireplace was on, so we didn't mind the size at all. The place was fully booked, and yet it was very quiet. The premises had lots of trees and garden was well-kept. One of the nice things was every morning before breakfast, a care basket was delivered to our door with morning beverage of our choices. With that and birds singing outside, such nice things to wake up to. Lawrence and Katy were both very attentive to the guests and made us feel very welcome. We have been to a few other B&Bs, Old Monterey Inn is definitely on top of our list to go back again.

Beautiful Getaway

5 on April 12, 2014

My Fiance and I wanted to get away, after 2 years of no vacationing. We got the Luxury Getaway package and WOW, what a treat. The innkeepers welcomed us so delightfully; breakfast each morning was superb, and the restaurants and activities they arranged for us was beyond magical! Felt like a Princess in the Library and throughout the trip!

Review for Old Monterey Inn

5 on March 10, 2014

The Old Monterey Inn was the first stop on our honeymoon earlier this month. To say we enjoyed the two nights in the Brightstone Suite would be an understatement. This room of the main house was extremely clean and wonderfully cozy. We chose to have our breakfast in the room by the fireplace before venturing out each morning. The food was as much aesthetically pleasing as it was delicious. With the help of the very courteous staff, Katy ensured our stay at the Inn would be the highlight of our trip. Thank you for making our stay a memorable one. We WILL return!

I'm A Fan Now

4.8 on January 20, 2014

I have really never been a fan of Bed and Breakfast establishments. However, now that I have stayed at the Old Monterey Inn, my opinion has totally changed. The room was wonderful. We stayed in the Stoneleigh. The grounds are beautiful and it is wonderful to just sit outside and take it all in. Breakfasts were great whether delivered to our room, out in the garden, or in traditional B&B style in the dining room. Most importantly was how welcomed we felt and how friendly everyone was. They don't miss a beat. Without a doubt, if we are to be in Monterey again, we will be staying at the Old Monterey Inn. You should consider it as well.

Great First Night

4,6 su maggio 24, 2012

My wife and I had just completed the first day of our Motorcycle trip. It was a pretty cold day and we were very tired, having only had a few hours sleep the night before. Needless to say, the big bed and hot shower were much needed amenities. My wife and I stayed in the Captains Stateroom. It was not like going into a Maritime Museum, but it was a fun unique flare added to the room, as I am a merchant marine by trade. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was not connected to the room, however it was right next door and was for our room only. The shower was a nice old clawfoot and the bathroom was clean and spacious. The house itself was an interesting old home and was beautifully maintained. Although they have a pool, it was too early and not opened yet. The breakfast was also nice and having a newspaper at the table was a nice bonus also. The breakfast was unique and quite tasty, my wife and I actually got the recipe for the egg dish we had. The day we left I had a couple of adjustments I had to make on my bike (it was a brand new bike and I had no tools), they were very helpful and provided me with the tools necessary to do what I needed to do. My only complaint was that I thought it was closer to main street that it was. I thought it would be an easy walk. But it was pretty far and quite a bit farther to the restaurant where we had dinner. But we rode the bike to dinner (which was great too), and there was no problem. It was a little pricey compared to the other inns where we stayed, but hey, its in NY...everything is more in NY (even upstate). Overall it was a good stay and I would go back for sure.

great mother/daughter team!

The dynamic duo at the Mt. Beacon B&B made our 2 year anniversary weekend getaway a great trip.

This beautiful home offers every comfort. Lauren & Barbara are the sweetest, friendliest and most accommodating hosts you could ask for.

Mellow Mid-Week Stay at Mt. Beacon

4,6 su settembre 30, 2010

My husband and I stayed at Mt. Beacon on a Monday and Tuesday night during our vacation. We stayed in the Captain's Stateroom and found the room well-appointed. It was comfortable and elegant without being stuffy or overly formal. Guests should note that this particular room has a private, but separate bath accessed through the common landing. The bathroom was beautiful and exceptionally clean with full housekeeping services, but guests may want to bring a robe for passing from room to bath. Breakfasts were excellent and we felt welcomed and appreciated how relaxed the innkeepers were. They were friendly and welcoming while respecting our privacy. We were surprised to find that the other two couples were people around our age (late 20s to mid 30s). This is a great location for heading out to hike when the weather is good, and is a good jumping off point to take the short five minute drive to Main Street shops and restaurants or down to Dia Beacon. It's also a great location to head out to explore other parts of the Hudson Valley. Visitors should take note of Dia Beacon's schedule as we found many shops and restaurants in town closed when Dia was closed (Tuesdays and Wednesdays in the fall). We would recommend Mt. Beacon to anyone visiting the area.

Our Stay at Mr. Beacon B&B

Attention to detail, clean, friendly. Imaginative decor, gourmet breakfasts. Nice swimming pool. Privacy. We slept in 2 different rooms, both were lovely. Good location.

Wonderful B&B

5 su marzo 03, 2010

The room was absolutely beautiful! Everything was perfect, from the handmade curtains to the homemade cookies waiting for us. Delicious breakfast and great service.

a beacon of joy...

5 su febbraio 24, 2010

My girlfriend and I stayed here for the valentine's day weekend and could not have been happier with the experience. Such a short drive from Brooklyn for such a wonderful place. The food was outstanding, the service was friendlier than most homes, and the master suite was perfect. To top the whole thing off, local hero Pete Seeger was in the inn visiting the owners when we arrived and he stayed and chatted with us for about 30 minutes about town, history and politics. The entire experience was exactly what we needed for a weekend trip and the Mt. Beacon Bed and Breakfast was the absolute best choice we could have made. I highly recommend the place to anyone even thinking about visiting the area.

Enjoyed at the Clybourn location.

A: single finger head with nice lacing on a hazy amber copper body.

S: major citrus hops like their standard IPA. Little else but it smells excellent.

Served in an imperial pint glass at the Clybourn brewpub.

Another stop on the Second Annual Bachelor Party Free-For-All! This one pours a clear sunset amber topped by over a finger of cream-colored foam. The nose comprises pine needles, rich toffee, pretzels, and light lemon rind. The taste brings in more of the same, with the maltier notes coming through just a touch stronger than the now-minty pine beneath. Very nicely-balanced, though. The body is a light medium, with a decidedly light carbonation and a creamy feel. Overall, a very nice English IPA, a joy to drink from the hand engine.
