"Better have GPS to find this hotel."
Not a good place to stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"close convenient to airport"
I had a quick one night stay here and it was goodGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Ok for quick overnight stay next to airport only!"
November 19-20 This is definitely not a four star hotel. We arrived at the airport after dark. The van came after about a 45 minute wait after the front desk reported he would pick us up in 30 minutes. The short ride to the hotel was met with a dark neighborhood with bars on all the windows. The area did not appear to be safe. The room was very used […] and needs some cleaning and repairs. The towels were very old along with the sheets and bed spread. We were not very impressed with this hotel and do not rate it a four star accommodation. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Non-smoking room felt like a smoking room"
Not impressed - but for the money was a good option. The room I stayed in was a non-smoking room, but it had been a smoking room at some point - the smell was still there. The breakfast buffett was ------ better skip it. Transportation was great - friendly and accomodating driver.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Barajas Airport"
I had to stay overnight because of a missed flight and I didn't want to go to far from the airport. This hotel is a great value, very close to the airport and very well priced.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Small room but convenient"
We selected the hotel as a good bargin, close to airport and allowed for 5 in the room. The hotel met our needs although we won't stay there for more than one night.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good hotel for the money."
Larger hotel room which was very pleasing. Best part was the shuttle to the airport - first departs at 6AM. Saddest part was having paid for breakfast and no nothing was mentioned as to the time of service. When we noticed it did not start until 7am and we had to depart at 6:30am, the staff member who checked us in he said "My colleague will set it […] up here in the lobby in the AM" - no such service happened or was found. Nor did the AM person mention anything about any coffee or tea being found anywhere else. Waste of money and quite disappointing. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Good hotel for a family of 4"
I like that the hotel has a dobble bed and 2 bunk beds in every room, plus a computerGenuine Expedia guest review
"Not a 4 star"
Dirty, not well kept, no coffee in am or food available it was Sunday. Awful. Would love to know who gave it 4stars. One would be too much.Genuine Expedia guest review
The shuttle from and to the airport was very helpful and free...the room and bath were comfortable and clean ...and included a computer with free wifi.. the buffet breakfast cost 9 euros but had a reasonable variety of food and great coffee ...I would return to this hotel when in Madrid for an overnight connection..Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Not a very nice hotel, but nice staff. The hotel is old and there is a sign that does not say "Petit Palace", but rather "High Tech Hotel" with most of the lights burned out. Excellent Italian restaurant nearby.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"breakfast and shuttle"
good breakfast buffet and airport shuttle and pizza at dinner.computer in room and 2 english language channels on big screen tvGenuine Expedia guest review
the furniture in the lobby (red chairs) were so worn and dirty that i was very shocked to see them in a 4 star hotel. the hotel rooms have the thinnest walls of any hotel i have stayed at. the neighborhood is very residential and quiet, however, the guest in the room above us, made up for that and then some. we stayed for our last night here and thought […] we will have a quiet night prior to our trip back to the states. Well, at about 4 in the morning, our neighbors upstairs decided to have some sort of party, we could hear every footstep, every laugh and if we knew their language, i am sure we could have participated in their conversation. it was terrible. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Would Not Stay More Than One Night"
We were a bit apprehensive when we pulled up and saw the neighborhood. We had to wait an hour for the shuttle. They do not tell you the shuttle does not come on demand but on a fixed schedule. The blinds in the room were patched with duck tape. There were no directions for the computer in the room, and it was not plugged in at all. The bed was not terribly […] comfortable. On the positive side, it is near the airport and around the corner from the train station. For one night it was not horrible. The room was clean but small. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Not "High Tech", but easy for airport connection."
We stayed there one night because we had an early flight in the morning. The lobby was funky and not very "high tech"... The room was cramped and dated. The wifi was a hassle and even then didn't really work. The desk staff was helpful and nice and the shuttle worked out well too, although it was not obvious that you needed to reserve a seat. The breakfast […] was barely bearable and the pool setting was unfriendly and exposed to the hot Madrid sun. The neighborhood was less than desirable, but more like a huge clustering of hideous, fenced-in, housing projects. There were a couple of Italian restaurants about 2 blocks away, which were more appealing than the bleak High Tech dining room. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Good hotel in general"
This is a good hotel to sleep near the airport, it will take only 5 minutes to go to the airport. In general a good small hotel.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Good Hotel with computer and internet free !"
Reserved by Expedia because our plane was arrived too late and we did not have correspondence. Great location to visit Madrid. Near Subway serving "La Gran Via" and "Plaza Mayor"! Computer and internet free in the bedroom ! Free shuttle to the airport from 6 am to 0:20 am. Staff very pleasant and available. It is a shame not to evaluate his neighbors […] who sometimes lack of courtesy and do not respect the sleep of others. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Bed was uncomfortable"
Location was close to airport, but couldn't sleep cause the bed was so hard.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good experience"
internet seemed to have limited band width and unusable during evening period. Good experience overall. One-way street with limited access from interstate.Genuine Expedia guest review
"High Tech Madrid Aeropuerto"
Great rates, nice area and 300 meters from Subway to get you downtown in about 25 minutes. Loved the free internet, computers provided in the rooms. Also loved their modern glass bathrooms. Depending on how you book, breakfast is not included, so expect an additional 10 euros. Shuttle pickup and delivery to airport is fantastic.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Over night stay."
There are pay phones at Madrids airport. We called the hotel and they send a shuttle to pick us up. Didn't have to wait long at all. We ate our dinner at the hotel restaurant. It was small, but very nice and the food was satisfying. The people working at the hotel were very helpful and friendly. Our room was great!! The hotel is very close to the airport […] and we would stay there again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Catered to our needs"
Complimentary Airport Transportation. Breakfast included in rate! Friendly hotel staff overall. Room nice, clean and all amenities including a laptop computer and free internet access. Very nice for a European Hotel. Short, 10 minute walk from Metro.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hotel NO TECH"
This place was absolutley pitafull. Zero wireless internet and absolutly terrible hardwire int. The beds were bruttally back breaking, shower was rediculously over the top with rediculous jets and 2 shower heads that dont all work simultaniously, nor did we have any idea on how the hell to turn it on. Staff was super unhelpfull and rude. The main reason […] i chose this place was becuase of the resteraunt that was open for 3 hrs a night. We bad to go to the next hotel over, ( hotel dyana - way better) to eat both lunch and dinner. The airport shuttle was late both picking us uP and dropping us off. And to top it all off we had to pay for what was called a complimentary breakfastof yogurt bread n cereal. This is not a stretch of the truth. This place is absolutly miserable. Do your reserch and stay closer to the city if you must. Do not stay here!! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not bad but not convenient."
I've stayed at a number of High Tech brand hotels in Madrid during the past few years. With most of them I've had an incredibly positive experience, with this one the experience was somewhat blah. I got to the hotel by metro. It's about a half kilometer from the metro station, but the walk involves weaving through a residential neighborhood. The hotel […] is located on a small street next to a number of apartment complexes. The room was spacious and comfortable. The included laptop though was brutally slow which has not been my experience with other hotels of the High Tech chain. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and had a great variety of food, but it is not included in the room price. Dinner service was really really slow, but the food was decent. The complimentary shuttle to the airport was a great service, but it's first come first serve and the slots fill up quickly. The hotel is not really conveniently close to any major Madrid landmarks. If all you want is a place to stay before making the final jump to the aiport then this place is for you, but if you want to be close to the sights of the city then look elsewhere.

"Great Hotel!!!"
Everything was amazing...except for my TV not working. They had issues with their satellite. The restaurant was excellent and the front desk staff was A+.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"not horrible, but not great either"
The good: We arrived at about 10pm and the shuttle picked us up at the airport 15 minutes after we called which was exactly what they promised. The not so good: The walls were paper thin and there was a crying baby next door. The "queen" size bed was really 2 twin beds with separate sets of bedding pushed together (weird). The shower was so complicated, […] we couldn't figure out how to use it and had to call the front desk. We only stayed one night, so it was okay. I wouldn't want to stay more than one night in this hotel though. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not High Tech"
Hotel was dark and the room was very dusty! Unpleasant odor of stale body odor- I changed rooms but it was the same as the first room- Check in agent was unhelpful and dismissive of my complaints of dissatisfaction with the room- I do not recommend this hotel for the price- Laptop in the room was old and the connection was very slow- Definately not […] high tech! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Don't waste your money"
This is a very odd hotel. Family rooms have glass doors with see-thru glass to the bathrooms. The gym has very limited hours - the pool is closed until June (no mention on website). There is NOTHING around the hotel. Save your money and stay at Holiday Inn Express instead!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"not impressed"
The staff was helpful & nice and proximity to airport was great. Other than that, the hotel is nowhere and there's no way to get from the hotel anywhere but the airport. The "fitness room" was a basement closet with a treadmill that appeared to be a few decades old. The restaurant was way over- priced and the food was not edible. The computers in the […] rooms were old and outdated and the internet in the rooms was weak to non-existent. There are lots of hotels near the Madrid airport. Stay in one of the other ones! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great Overnight Stay Close to Airport, Great Staff"
We had a wonderful experience with this hotel and we would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. In fact, we made sure to bring home information about the chain so we can book with them wherever they are--we enjoyed the stay that much. It is a great place to stay while going to or from the Barajas airport. but it's location is not ideal for your […] entire visit to Madrid because it's too far off the beaten path. You will find the rooms to be modern, spacious, and inviting. It was more comfortable than the other three hotels we stayed in while in Spain. Unlike some other hotels, you can trust the pictures they post online--their rooms and such do look like the pictures. The rooms were well equipped: king size bed, exercise bike, steam vallet, and best of all free wi-fi AND a laptop in your room. Since we did not bring our own laptop on our vacation and most of the other hotels we stayed in did not have free wi-fi/computer service, we found this amenity to be a huge benefit. We specifically booked the hotel because it offered a free shuttle to the airport. The times of the shuttle were clearly posted at the reception desk, and the shuttle left right on time. The driver was curteous and efficient. The staff was amazing. They were incredibly professional, considerate, and helpful. They helped us get our check-in documents printed so we could leave in the morning. The only thing you should perhaps consider is this hotel is really only accessible by taxi.

"Excellent for the explorer"
Lovely hotel, great staff and facilities. Rooms were pleasant to be in and the afternoon meals were good after a day out. it is in the middle of a apartment district but its nothing to hold against it. Staff were very helpful and spoke good english. there was only a few downsides, the exterior is a bit shabby, the pool was dirty and unuseable and the […] double beds are two singles next to each other, other than that brilliant bonus close to metro and free airport shuttle service,would reccomend if yyou want to explore madrid Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Airport hotel?"
The location of the hotel is quite strange. It's pretty close to airport but you need to have a car or get a lift. There's bus shuttle from the hotel to the airport and back and it's free. The subway line close by is not very convenient as it goes to the centre of the city not to the airport. The room was clean and big enough. We were hungry when we […] arrived but the restaurant was closed. So we waited two hours. The food was... OK. But we felt like we were disturbing the waiter's evening. We weren't that welcomed. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel shame about the beds!"
I chose this hotel for it's proximity to the airport as I was getting a connecting flight early the next morning and reasoned that it would save me taxi fares... Wrong! The Taxis at the airport charge a minimum €35 fare which no amount of arguing could change, unfortunately it was dark & I had no idea where the hotel was (1.2 km away) so had to pay, […] I know this has nothing to do with the hotel but thought I would warn others. The Hotel itself is a nice suprise, reasonably modern with friendly staff, so far so good. The room looks lovely really clean with a 32" lcd tv & Dell laptop for all your internet needs. But & it is a big BUT the bed is the hardest thing I have ever laid on and I have slept on concrete floors before! To say it is uncomfortable is a big understatement, I kept waking up in the night with dead limbs and a whole body ache, just perfect for my 11 hour flight the following morning! So to sum up a very attractive reasonably priced hotel. Great for visiting monks who feel that there cells are a little to comfortable. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great hot winter getaway!"
We were looking for a last minute family break somewhere hot over Christmas. The resort is safe and clean with plenty to do. The pools are not warm at this time of year although there are some that are heated. The food is great and we were able to cook and eat on our patio should we wish. The room heating and cooling is good. The beds are fine and the […] shower and bathing facilities are super. The staff at the resort could not do enough for us and we're so pleasant. We will definitely come back again. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Hotel High Tech - Madrid"
Arrived late for a two night stay and was great we could still get food in bar until late, hotel in great location for the airport and free shuttle bus service was great. Staff very friendly and helpful, food we had in the bar was good. Breakfast was pretty good, usual buffet, however cooked breakfast was not the best, beans and scrambled egg had gone […] watery. Would stay again though. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Very good shuttle bus and frontdesk service, however, the condition and the maintenance of the hotel is kind of xxx, broken lights and the ceilling of the bathroom with fungus.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

is not asnear to the airport as they say,,,, they didnt pick upus at the aiport as they sayed,,Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Friendly environment"
Hotel staff were helpful and friendly, free shuttle bus was convenient just make sure you ring the hotel when u arrive or U'll be waiting a very long time for a shuttle bus. This hotel is only good if you want to be close to the airport, there is nothing to see around the hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not what expected for a 4 star hotel"
We arrived in the evening. From the airport hotel bus station I have to phone the hotel to pick us up. I was expecting that since they already have our arrival time they should already have the hotel bus waiting for us but I was wrong. To reach the hotel we have to pass a narrow road with lines of parked cars owned by local residents whose huge and […] high and long building is located in front of the hotel and some parts with graffitis. We reached the hotel reception and there was only one person working plus the bus driver equals two. On our way to our room on the 3rd floor the hotel corridor was so dark and I wish we brought a flashlight to be able to see where to push the hotel card key (saving electricity maybe) I did not feel safe as being a foreigner I expect a brightly lit corridor to walk. I was just thankful that our room was only five steps to the elevator. Inside the room we want to order room service but the menu was mostly sandwiches and pizza. The hotel room is very small - my daughter and I have to walk each sideways to go to the other side of the bed. I opened the window and I saw this over towering residence building in front ot us hence nothing to look at! Took my shower and I ended up flooding the whole bathroom as there is no shower curtain and nothing to step into but a shower installed in one corner of the bathroom which was not even elevated hence caused the flooding. I will grade this hotel 2 stars only. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"wifi times out after 30 minutes"
and then you have to sign in (the sign in process takes about a minute) - seriously! Convoluted usernames and passwords. Otherwise, besides the rather belligerent service, it was quite ok. The wifi was a serious irritation, nothing is worse than wifi that doesn't really work.Genuine Expedia guest review

"You have to feel it and see it," David Yurman says. He's speaking of texture, an indispensible element of every design he creates. Cabled, polished, and hammered metal are combined with diamond pavé and smooth and faceted stones to create a feast for sight and touch.
From the French for paved or cobblestoned, pavé refers to diamonds and colored gemstones that are set closely together. Each stone is selected for cut and color, and meticulously hand-set by a highly skilled jeweler. The prongs are expertly crafted to hold the stones securely yet barely show for the most radiant effect.

The Cold Steel Axe Gang Hatchet is a design that Cold Steel has been after for some time. Finally Cold Steel can bring to market one of the devastating Chinese styled hatchets used with such awesome effect in countless Kung Fu movies. The Cold Steel version, the Axe Gang Hatchet, is an authentically formidable weapon, not just a prop for the cameras. It features a drop-forged head, with a differential heat treatment (hard edge-soft body), and a straight, four inch cutting edge (with sharp corners). In addition to that it has a straight grain American Hickory handle with the Kanji characters that mean "Axe Gang". The sharp corners of the edge will easily pierce the thickest skull and the razor sharp edge will shear through flesh and bone like it was white bread. Plus due to its substantial weight and straight handle, it's easy to throw with great accuracy and is sure to explode any target with the most violent effect.

SPIRITED AND INTELLIGENT, MORAYO grows up surrounded by school friends and family in busy, modern-day Ibadan. An adoring little sister, their traditional parents, and a host of aunties and cousins make Morayo's home their own. So there's nothing unusual about her charming but troubled cousin Bros T moving in with the family. At first Morayo and her sister are delighted, but in her innocence, nothing prepares Morayo for the shameful secret Bros T forces upon her.
Thrust into a web of oppressive silence woven by the adults around her, Morayo must learn to protect herself and her sister from a legacy of silence shared by the women in her family. Only her Aunt Morenike provides Morayo with a safe home and a sense of female community that sustains her as she develops into a young woman in bustling, politically charged, often violent Nigeria.
"Yejide Kilanko's courageous characters reveal how young women bear their coming-of-age, and then they learn to tell."
– Kim Echlin, author of Giller Prize-nominated The Disappeared
"Daughters Who Walk This Path is a subtle yet complex exploration of what it means to be a young woman growing up in contemporary Nigeria. Kilanko does not shy away from tough subjects. Just as important, she does not sensationalize them. This is a delightful, haunting book from a very talented writer."
– Chika Unigwe, author of On Black Sisters Street
"A welcome and much needed chronicle of family politics in contemporary Nigeria."
– Sefi Atta, awarding-winning author of Everything Good Will Come
"Uplifting…graceful and unmistakably authentic"
– Quill & Quire
"Though the subject of her novel is one that'll typically make us avert our eyes, Yejide Kilanko combines an unflinching gaze, a tender heart and a gift for lyrical storytelling. Daughters Who Walk This Path is a necessary book."
– E.C.Osondu – Winner of the Caine Prize and author Voice of America
"[Kilanko] tells us stories about Nigerian women's emotional strength, their remarkable network of support and the travails that afflict many of them in a country where women still provide the domestic backbone. It is a book that can make you laugh and cry and if you aren't a feminist, Kilanko's book will turn you into one — whether you're male or female… Kilanko's characters are affecting and admirable; her storytelling agile and persuasive; her dialogue convincing and funny. Kilanko's primary job in social work and child protection allows her a deep understanding of victimization. She leaves us with a sense of a Nigerian woman's heroism in the face of social prejudice. Morayo and her aunt Morenike walked us down a path we hope we will be able to meet them on again."

Private Supplemental/Alternative Loan - Students needing additional funding for school, whose aid package has not fully met their cost of attendance, may opt to apply for funding through a private lending agency. These loans have a variable interest rate, and a credit check must be done on all applicants. For more information, contact the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships or see Alternative Loans
Students needing additional funding for school whose aid package has not fully met their cost of attendance, may opt to apply for funding through a private lending agency. These loans have variable interest rates, and a credit check must be done on all applicants. The Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships cannot provide recommendations on where to secure private or alternative loans. Our best advice is for you to explore options with a lender you may already do business with and feel comfortable using. We also recommend doing your research before signing on the dotted line to be sure that you will not be in for any surprises later. The excerpts from the article below come from the Federal Student Aid website. The article can be found in its entirety here.
Student Loans: Avoiding Deceptive Offers
Excerpts from a joint publication of the Federal Trade Commission and the U.S. Department of Education
An education beyond high school is an investment in your future. It can be expensive and often requires you or your family to take out loans to help pay for it. Student loans fall into two categories, federal loans and private loans.
Federal loans, which are subject to oversight and regulation by the federal government, include:
- Direct Loans, where the U.S. Department of Education is the lender;
- Federal Family Education Loans (FFEL), where private lenders make loans backed by the federal government; and
- Federal Perkins Loans.
Private loans, sometimes referenced as "alternative loans," are offered by private lenders and do not include the benefits and protections available with federal loans.
Whether you're taking out a new student loan or consolidating existing education loans, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, and the U.S. Department of Education (ED), the agency that oversees federal student loans, want you to know how to spot potentially deceptive claims or business practices some private companies may use to get your loan business. Private companies may offer you loans and other forms of financial assistance for your education. They often use direct mail marketing, telemarketing, television, radio, and online advertising to promote their products.
Paying for your education is a serious long-term financial obligation; that's why comparing the costs of different ways of financing your education is so important. Private loans tend to have higher fees and interest rates than federal government loans. Private loans also do not offer the opportunities for cancellation or loan forgiveness that are available on many federal loan programs. So it makes good financial sense to exhaust your federal loan options (as well as grants and scholarships) before considering loans from any private companies. To learn more about federal government loans, visit www.FederalStudentAid.ed.gov.
The FTC works for the consumer to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices in the marketplace and to provide information to help consumers spot, stop, and avoid them. To file a complaint or to get free information on consumer issues, visit ftc.gov or call toll-free, 1‑877‑FTC‑HELP (382-4357); TTY: 1‑866‑653‑4261. The FTC enters Internet, telemarketing, identity theft, and other fraud-related complaints into Consumer Sentinel, a secure online database available to hundreds of civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad.
Federal Student Aid, an office of the U.S. Department of Education, administers the federal student financial aid — grants, loans, and work-study programs — available for education beyond high school. Federal Student Aid interacts with postsecondary schools, financial institutions and other participants in the student aid programs to deliver services that help students and families plan and pay for college.
To learn more about Federal Student Aid and how to pay for college, visit www.FederalStudentAid.ed.gov or call 1‑800‑4‑FED‑AID.

What kind of tags? ID tags? If they are a phone number, you can use 411.com reverse number search and maybe pull up who the number belonged to. This will give you a name. If they are numbers on rabies type tags, it should list a vet. office too.

For his body of contributions to the power industry, Munukutla, a mechanical engineering professor at Tennessee Technological University's Center for Electric Power, has been named the 1998-99 recipient of university's Donald Caplenor Faculty Research Award.
Munukutla began his professional career by applying his research in fluid mechanics to the aerospace field. Since joining the Center for Electric Power in 1986, he's been able to apply his research to solving practical electric utility industry problems in creative ways.
His most recent contribution to the power industry was a new technique enabling power companies to provide an accurate cost analysis on an hourly basis. This technique is vitally important to utilities who, facing deregulation, will soon be required to declare the cost of electric power on an hourly basis on the Internet. The data will enable communities and other power buyers to shop around for the best rates.
"I was one of the first faculty members to be hired by the center, and the timing created a tremendous opportunity to be at the beginning of Tech's efforts to build a strong research program," said Munukutla. "My work has been possible because of the focus and efforts of a lot of other people."
More than 20 major electric utilities - including TVA, Georgia Power, Alabama Power and Tennessee Eastman - have funded Munukutla's projects. His significant contributions include an innovative technique for balancing coal/air flow in pipes and a new method for monitoring the performance of a coal-fired unit in real time.
Munukutla's efforts were previously recognized when he received the university's Brown-Henderson Outstanding Engineering Faculty Award for Excellence in Teaching, Research and Service in 1996 and the student-awarded Outstanding Faculty Award for Teaching in 1997.
"I have been fortunate throughout my career here to work with outstanding colleagues and dedicated graduate students," Munukutla added. "I attribute my accomplishments to the relationships I have with the talented people here at Tech."First presented in 1984, the university's premier research award is named in honor of Donald Caplenor, former associate vice president for research and dean of instructional development. Caplenor died in 1979 while on a field trip with students at Fall Creek Falls.

At first glance, Wooper may seem like a sitting duck; assumptions may be that it's cute, but pathetically weak. Unfortunately for those who think that, Wooper is far from useless. It can serve as a utility Pokemon; its high HP and good Defense, further boosted by Eviolite, help it to check certain dangerous threats such as Scraggy, and other Fighting- and Ground-type Pokemon. Wooper also sports immunities to Electric- and Water-type moves (with Water Absorb), further enhancing its ability to switch in comfortably. Overall, Wooper should not be underestimated, because when given the correct support, it will not be easy to knock out.
Wooper is a great utility counter to many Pokemon, being able to stall large threats out with a combination of its moves and stats. Earthquake offers STAB, and is a relatively powerful attack. Waterfall provides secondary STAB, and is useful against Pokemon who resist Ground-type attacks. Ice Punch offers great coverage alongside Earthquake, hitting Flying-type Pokemon for super effective damage, but cannot be used with Unaware. Encore allows Wooper to lock an opponent into a move, easing prediction, and often allowing a teammate to set up if the opponent does not switch on the same turn. Toxic is a great move, and can be used to stall opposing Pokemon out in tangent with Recover.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Yawn is a good option if you want Wooper to force switches, but should only be used with both Stealth Rock and Spikes support. Haze is a decent option for erasing stat boosts on the likes of Shell Smash Clamperl when using Water Absorb. Scald is an option, allowing Wooper to burn potential threats, but the burn rate is not very reliable, and it's not very strong either, due to it coming off of Wooper's low Special Attack stat. Finally, Curse and Stockpile in tangent with Counter are good options, allowing Wooper to boost its Defense to high levels and reflect any weak physical attack for double the damage. Curse should be used if Wooper is more offensively oriented, while Stockpile should be used if Wooper's main objective is to tank as many hits as possible.
Checks and Counters
Grass-type Pokemon can easily switch in on either of Wooper's STAB attacks, take little damage, and retaliate with a powerful STAB attack of their own. A great example is Ferroseed, who can take any hits with relative ease, is immune to Toxic, and can set up entry hazards before finishing Wooper off with Bullet Seed. Other Grass-type Pokemon perform similarly. However, unlike Ferroseed, most Grass-types are weak to Ice and when played correctly, an Ice Punch coming from Wooper can hurt. Bronzor is a great counter, also being immune to Toxic like Ferroseed, boasting great defenses, and easily switching in and tanking any hits Wooper throws at it. However, Bronzor cannot do much to Wooper either, unless Wooper does not carry Recover, or Bronzor has Toxic. Frillish does not take a lot of damage from Earthquake, can burn Wooper with Will-O-Wisp, and can replenish its health with Recover.

Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer in the first half of the 19th century famous for scaring the heck out of his readers. He is the master of dismemberment, underground crypts, murder, suffocation, ghosts, the living dead, haunted mansions, blood, and all the other lovely features of your favorite horror movies. He's been immensely popular in France, and many scholars attribute this popularity to the gorgeous translations of his work by the poet Baudelaire, who rendered Poe poetic instead of melodramatic (overly dramatic).
Poe remains generally popular, if not lauded in academia, for both his short stories and his poetry. Both are featured in "The Fall of the House of Usher," his most famous short story (the poem is buried inside it). "Usher" was first published in 1839 in Burton's Gentleman's Magazine and is pretty much typical Poe material: it tells the story of a sick brother and sister who… well, let's not give the ending away. Just be forewarned: there will be blood.
"Usher" has been read and re-read by critic after critic, and there are several interesting "theories" to explain the major action of the tale. Most have approached the tale from a psychological viewpoint, which will make more sense to you after you read the text and check out our "Character Analyses." There's also been some criticism regarding the story's typical Poe-ness; some feel that it is too formulaic and relies on stock Poe characters that can be found in any number of his stories. Decide for yourself.
"The Fall of the House of Usher" shows us that fear can be some pretty powerful stuff. Not only can it paralyze or control us, but it can actually manifest the outcomes that we dread. Examples, you demand? Gladly.

About Natalie Imbruglia
Natalie Jane Imbruglia (pron.: /ɪmˈbruːliə/; born 4 February 1975) is an Australian singer-songwriter, model and actress. In the early 1990s, Imbruglia was known to audiences as Beth Brennan in the popular Australian soap Neighbours. Three years after leaving the programme, Imbruglia launched a singing career with the international hit "Torn". Her subsequent debut album, Left of the Middle (1997), sold over 6 million copies worldwide. Further releases, White Lilies Island (2001) and Counting Down the Days (2005), have been unable to match the commercial success of her debut, although the latter did become her first UK No. 1. Her latest album to date, Come to Life (2009), proved the least commercially successful in Australia and Europe, with a UK release cancelled altogether. She co-starred in the 2003 film Johnny English and made her leading actress debut in the 2009 film Closed for Winter.

The Society for the History of Natural History
The Society for the History of Natural History is a friendly international society for everyone who is interested in natural history in the broadest sense. This includes botany, zoology and geology as well as natural history collections, exploration, art and bibliography. Everyone with an interest in these subjects professional or amateur is welcome to join. For a brief history of the society, click here.
SHNH is known for its friendliness and provides a focal point for the history of all aspects of natural history. It has a thriving international membership and regional representatives organise local meetings. An international meeting is held at regular intervals, the most recent being held in the United States in November 2012. A number of meetings and events are scheduled for 2013 so do visit the Meetings and Events pages for more information. Of especial interest will be our meeting on Alfred Russel Wallace.
The Society's main publication is Archives of natural history, produced twice a year, and distributed free to all members. It contains refereed, illustrated papers and book reviews and is published for the Society by Edinburgh University Press. All volumes published from 1936 are now available online.
From time to time, the Society also publishes other works of interest. To celebrate SHNH's 75th anniversary in 2011, we published History and mystery, an anthology of the most interesting, bizarre and entertaining notes and queries from the Society's newsletters. Other publications include: Darwin in the Archives and A Century of Discovery.
An informal Newsletter is produced three times a year and distributed free to members. It contains details of forthcoming meetings, news of other events, a lively Notes & Queries section, members news and new publications.

The State Of Desebrada In Austin Texas Part Seven: Taqueria El Chanclas
Mon, 02/27/12 10:40 AM
Final installment of the Desebrada series:
When I decide to give the under sung taco form of desebrada its proper due and dedicate a seven part series to it, I have no way of knowing how hopelessly rare it is.
At least in Austin.
I search high and low and make many dry runs across our city before finally sampling enough places to have an accurate take on the current state of this delicious form..
As the series winds down I realize it's time to revisit the taqueria where my desebrada virginity was snatched from me; Taqueria El Chanclas in Pilot Knob Texas.
Eleven years is a lifetime in the world of taco carts. Austin native, Cain Ramirez has seen both the genesis of the lonchero as well as the rise of the chef driven food cart of modern Austin since he opened his doors back in the year 2000.
He remains unswayed. He knows he's near the top of the game and watching hundreds of competitors come along is not changing a damn thing.
After all, the taco cart scene in Pilot Knob is quite a bit different than in the heart of Austin.
Taqueria El Chanclas sits quietly in a gravel parking lot on the side of busy Hwy 183, ten minutes south of Austin proper.
It's a tidy little affair with a big metal awning providing much needed shade from the brutal Texas sun.
The tables are filled with beefy Mexican cats all tucking into big bowls of menudo and plates of crafted tacos on scratch corn tortillas.
It's a nice scene.
I order my food as owner Ramirez walks up. He remembers me from previous visits so we sit a spell while I wait on my food.
Business is good in uninincorporated Travis County. Ramirez' cart sits at an extremely busy intersection and a constant flow of patrons are coming in for big sacks of tacos and bowls of menudo.
My desebrada taco arrives and it's delicious. The corn tortilla is hot off the comal of taquera Eliza and she exhibits a highly skilled hand. It's fluffy with manteca and shaped like a cloud. It's been awhile since I've had a tortilla this good.
The best desebrada is carefully cooked so it falls into shreds that literally melt when you begin devouring your taco. El Chanclas version is a paragon of the form. It's good to know that little has changed in the five or so years I've been eating here.
The creamy, emulsified, bright green salsa is good and fiery. This is a common style in Central Texas made popular by being the salsa du jour of the grilled chicken carts that abound in Austin.
You could eat this desebrada with no sauce if you choose. It's that good.
I make my way to leave and Cain Ramirez and I exchange pleasantries. He's excited by the construction of the nearby Formula One track that's opening next year. I have a feeling that he won't be the only game in Pilot Knob for long as Austin food carts with dollar signs in their eyes will be along to welcome the race fans with overpriced tacos on factory tortillas.
But there's no point telling him that.
He's been successful for over a decade doing his business the right way so he'll prosper no matter who shows up for a piece of the pie.
Located at the corner
of US 183 South and
Pilot Knob Texas

Party Entertainment
The Party Planner Answers:
Entertainment for a party has come a long way. Besides clowns and magicians, you can opt for one of the following choices:
Most entertainers charge about $65-$80 an hour. However, you may be able to find services that provide clowns who juggle and do magic tricks, so you get more for your buck!
Consider entertainers who have been recommended by friends or relatives. Other great resources are the Yellow Pages or local parenting publications. One thing to keep in mind for younger children: do not let the entertainment be a surprise. Some children may be scared when seeing the entertainer in person.
Some hiring considerations:
Not all kids want -- or are ready for -- an entertainer. Be sure your child is involved in this decision.

The team at Sora Nails & Spa pamper and beautify. To contrast their eyelash-extension services, the aestheticians wax away unwanted hair. They also specialize in manicures and pedicures and make faces glow with regular and express facials.
Inside any of Hairdoctors Specialty Salons' five full-service locations, skilled aestheticians treat hair and nails with a range of pharmaceutical and natural services. They trim and style hair, perform keratin treatments, and color strands using crayons or ammonia-free dyes and cellophanes. The staff's work extends beyond hair services via manicures and pedicures. Aestheticians also add to clients' existing hair with extensions—strands made from Remy or virgin Indian human hair and attached to scalps via weaving, taping, fusion, or gluing. Hairdoctors Specialty Salons also posts informative hair-extension FAQs on its website.
Acupuncture and Massage College helps its surrounding communities in two ways: by teaching students the art of pain and stress relief through therapeutic treatments and by empowering those students to treat those in need. With guidance from experienced instructors, students learn the various techniques of ancient acupuncture and massage, both in the classroom and in the field. Patients can come to the college and bid adieu to their aches and worries by lying down in a treatment room and be treated by a supervised learning practitioner. Students shoo away pain with 50-minute acupuncture treatments or massage sessions, customized to address problematic areas or work around any ventriloquist dummies clients refuse to put down.
Primos Barber Shop offers a variety of grooming services for men of all ages amid a retro-meets-recent atmosphere. After plopping down into a comfy, oversized barber chair, customers can sip on a complimentary beverage as expert scissor wielders tend to their scratchy scalp sweaters, starting with an American Crew shampoo. Necks and shoulders are then freed of tension with a relaxing massage after a trim or buzz frees hair of sticky wasp nests. Warm towels and Truefitt & Hill shaving cream soften the skin before faces are transformed into sleek visages with a straight-edge razor.
Every pair of eyes is unique. That's the view at Blink Lash Boutique, where owners Janelle Koch and Jen Pearson lead a skilled staff in providing custom eyelash extensions for their guests. Each team member applies synthetic extensions one by one, making lashes longer without fitting them for tiny platform shoes. The strands themselves are available in a variety of styles and thicknesses to create looks from subtle to dramatic. No matter what the desired outcome, the team places client safety and comfort first—Jen and Janelle are both professional aestheticians, and all of their fellow lash stylists undergo rigorous training to ensure their work is suitably flirtatious.
Whether lightening the appearance of wrinkles or blasting away dead skin cells, the medical staff at both locations of Mosa Med Spa rely on up-to-date cosmetics equipment. Board-certified physicians Jose I. Garri, MD, DMD and Dr. Ramiro Peréz, Jr. lead a team of medical professionals, all of whom specialize in minimally invasive techniques such as skin-resurfacing microdermabrasion and anti-aging facials. One of the med spa's crowning jewels is the Candela laser, which heats away melanin deep in the follicles to remove hair from nearly any skin type.

And we thought OT had an ego before?Originally posted by piqaboo:

Respect clearly comes first, but such is our world that there are those who objectively are incapable of taking care of themselves. That is where compassion or understanding should kick in, especially on the part of public officials in charge of dispensing the appropriate assistance.Originally posted by Selma in Sandy Eggo:
Also, I'm not sure compassion is what we need. It's sort of incompatible with the respect which I would rather have. Compassion rather implies that you think the objects of same need somebody to take care of them, as though they were incompetent or thoughtless.
Individuals with conservative ideologies are happier than liberal-leaners, and new research pinpoints the reason: Conservatives rationalize social and economic inequalities.
Regardless of marital status, income or church attendance, right-wing individuals reported greater life satisfaction and well-being than left-wingers, the new study found.
Conservatives also scored highest on measures of rationalization, which gauge a person's tendency to justify, or explain away, inequalities.
The rationalization measure included statements such as: "It is not really that big a problem if some people have more of a chance in life than others," and "This country would be better off if we worried less about how equal people are."
Shapley wrote:My own view of this is that Republicans are more willing than Democrats to accept the challenges brought about by changing economic and political climates.
Global warming, for instance, scares Democrats but not Republicans. Why? Democrats fear that global warming will bring about catastrophic changes that may imperil our ability to live on the Earth. Republicans believe that changes due to global warming, if they occur, will occur gradually, allowing people time to adjust to, or resolve, the problems encountered.
Democrats worry too much about other people's problems, as well as other people's good fortune. They see injustice in every aspect of life, and try to find governmental solutions to fix it. Republicans see that there is injustice in many aspects of life, and accept that that is the way of the world. They are willing to allow government to fix such injustice as falls within their jurisdiction, but believe that not everything in life falls within that jurisdiction.
Democrats think they pay too much in taxes, and that everybody else doesn't pay enough in taxes. They spend a lot of time worrying about that. They think that government could do a better job of curing all our ills if everybody else would give enough money to the treasury. Republicans think everybody that pays taxes probably pays too much in taxes, because the government tries to do too much with what it has, and wastes a lot of money in the process of trying to do it.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The Central Michigan soccer team ended its lengthy September road campaign with a 2-1 setback to Indiana at the Hoosier Classic on Sunday at Armstrong Field.
The Chippewas wasted no time on the scoring attack as Emily Cooksey delivered a strike from 12 yards, dribbling past the Hoosier goalkeeper, in the fourth minute. The goal marked her first of the season and second of her career. Cooksey's goal snapped a five game, 472-minute scoring drought for CMU.
Indiana responded in the 33rd minute, when junior midfielder Tori Keller delivered a cross to junior midfielder Abby Smith who found the back of the net from 10 yards out. The goal was Smith's second of the season.
The Hoosiers found another quality chance in the 36th minute when senior forward Rebecca Candler's penalty shot was stopped by junior goalkeeper Grace Labrecque. Senior midfielder Lisa Nouanesengsy hit the cross bar just two minutes later for Indiana.
Labrecque appeared in her second start of the year, recording a career-high eight saves in net against a strong Indiana attack that tallied a total of 21 shots.
"I think that overall Grace had a great performance," said head coach Peter McGahey. "Her experience in net really paid off, as she was both composed and mature."Just moments before halftime, CMU responded to Indiana's late first half pressure, as freshman forward Angie Mann nearly found the back of the net, hitting the cross bar in the 43rd minute. The shot on goal was the first of her collegiate career.
Senior forward Nicole Samuel supplied another quality chance on the offensive end for the Chippewas as she headed a shot saved by the goalkeeper in the 76th minute.
In the 85th minute, Kayleigh Steigerwalt, who led the team with three shots on goal, made the difference as she dribbled past Chippewa defenders and delivered a strike into the net from 20 yards out. Steigerwalt's goal was her second of the season.
The Chippewas return home to the CMU Soccer Complex to take on Dayton on Friday, Sept. 20 at 5 p.m.
