I have not had any issues with any of our policies. There are definetly policies in place for attendance but none of which I have found to be an issue.
Health & Safety:
I have always felt safe and secure on campus no matter day or night. I have never really felt the need for or seen security in campus but I know there are eyes and ears paying attention to what is needed. I love the environment.
Campus Quality:
Alvernos campus offers a refreshing atmosphere that displays art and sculptures designed by students past and present. There are multiple courtyards and areas to relax and revive. There are many resturants and stores for necessitys within walking distance, as well as parks and interesting and unique stores.
Alverno has a number of labs that are conveniently located around the campus with fairly extensive hours of operation. I find that the speed and effieciency of the internet and computers overall is always on point.
Off-Campus Dining:
Milwaukee inb al is diverse. The dining options are endless and tend to be more affordable and accesible. I love bayviews options in dining, as well as nightlife. Bayview is only five or so miles from Alvernos campus.
Local Area:
Milwaukee is diverse and I believe has a little bit of everything for everyone!
The challenges and research oriented ciriculum really encourage me to continue to dig until I can find what conclusion I beleive fitting. I appreciate the instructors open mindedness and ability t remain flexible and not fixed in their approaches. I look forward to my educational career with Alverno College. As time goes on I continue to recognize so much about my abilities as an educated professional woman.
Campus Food:
The food is pretty good. It's just kind of expensive, especially if you run out of money on your meal plan, you wont get the 40% discount anymore.
Health & Safety:
You always see security officers at every time of the day. they are available by phone or person whenever you need
I like the parking. It's close to the buildings and you don't have to walk a mile to get somewhere.
Campus Quality:
Clare Hall is a great dorm. Its quiet for studying and you feel at home.
The pass fail system is very different but once you get to nursing it is nice to get a percentage
Campus Quality:
Everything at alverno is pretty well kept up. However, the nursing building except the CNRC is pretty outdated
Alverno has many different backgrounds. Students from different countries to people with different political beliefs
Off-Campus Dining:
Restaurants around Alverno College are limited but are also nice and cheap. Most of the places around Alverno are opened 24 hours, this is good because you are able to go off of campus and work on homework. The atmosphere's in the restaurants are very warm and welcoming. My favorite place to go is Denny's because it is always quiet and open. I am able to accomplish a lot of my homework when I am there. Noodles & Company is a great place to go with your friends when you are feeling pretty lonely or just want to get away for a few hours. Leon's Custard is an amazing ice parlor that is old school. It is a drive in and has a very loving touch. The ice cream there is incredible.
Campus Quality:
My school's academic programs are different than any other college. First the school does not have a grading system. You are graded by a simple S or U. An S stands for success, while an U stands for Unsuccessful. This makes the atmosphere feel a lot better than what they I felt like in High School. The pressure is a lot less and you are able to work with other students. The way Alverno bases your education on is by simply having 8 values in which they also interact with the community. Alverno wants women to become well-known to all different aspects, not just sitting and being forced information. Overall, Alverno is an awesome academic school because they may grade harshly, but it is for our own benefits.
Campus Quality:
Alverno College has a great campus atmosphere due to the way all of the students interact with each other. When passing people in the hallway they all say hello and it makes you feel welcome, no matter what happens. The students are always welcoming and so are the teachers, they want to help you just as mush as other students do. Alverno makes the environment seem friendly and very welcoming.
Campus Food:
The meals can be kind of expensive, but if you out money on your id, you get a 10% discount on purchases
Health & Safety:
I have never had any problems on campus and when you hear of someone who has, you normally hear that things are working on being resolved or they have been
Overall Experience:
Alverno is more than just a school. They work in an ability based education system, to help you with the skills you will need out in the workforce, such as communication, analysis, problem solving, valuing, social interaction, developing a global perspective, effective citizenship, and aesthetic engagement.
Overall Experience:
I love Alverno everyone is always willing to help you and all the girls are very friendly!
Your Own Car – Having your own car on campus is great because they offer free parking.
There Is Endless Resources on Campus – My major is Business and Management. There are organizations on campus such as Women in Business that focuses on my major and I am given the opportunity to have hands- on experience on and off campus. There is even study abroad programs and internships I have access with to participate.
Professors Ensures No One Is Left Behind in the Course – Alverno has very small class sizes so it is a benefit that you can grow a relation with professors. A few professors even gave me their home phone number. So whenever I have a question, it is no problem getting a hold of them and getting it answered. There is also resources thoughout the campus that offers tutoring to those in need of it. Students can borrow laptops for several days and also given 400 printing pages for each semester.
Campus Food:
Food Is Well Done! The food is quite repetitive but fortunately there are set hours during the day when meals change from tacos to turkeys.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Most students who have made it through the majority of their years at Alverno say that they cannot imagine being anywhere else. In fact, many students who leave Alverno to go to other schools because of finances or because they didn't think Alverno was a good fit, often come back. Alverno is not just a school—it's a place that teaches women to think outside of the box and to understand themselves. It becomes a home for many people. Alverno graduates go on to become important women in their workplaces, communities, churches, and homes. The College offers students a unique opportunity to take a really good look at themselves and say, "Who am I?" and "Is this who I really want to be?"
Most people say that going to college is an investment in your future, but coming to Alverno is an investment in not only your future, but also your community's future. Almost all students who graduate from Alverno get a job within six months of graduation. Its graduates are competent, well-rounded, and have made a name both locally and internationally. At Alverno, students are pushed to analyze documents, literature, and one another. They are also encouraged to continuously self-assess and focus on their success.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but where do I find the client secret to authorise Google drive.
Many thanks
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but where do I find the client secret to authorise Google drive.
Many thanks
It's not a dumb question, what is dumb is that Google made it so complicated.
Anyway, you can find the answer on the Backup plugin's setting page. Just click on the help button on the top right of the page.
For others reading this, you need to go to the Google APIs Console and on the API Access page you need to create a client ID for web applications. A client secret will also be generated for you. You will also need to add register a redirect URI there. For the Backup plugin the URI is something like http://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=backup&action=auth.
Can the backup be both done for google drive and file path in your own server?
I noticed that I can do one or the other, not both. This will be very helpful if it is available.
Backups are always created on the local filesystem first and then uploaded to GDrive.
You have the option of choosing the maximum number of backups you wish to be stored both locally and on Google Drive.

I would like to run a cronjob that ran every morning to move the files that were created on the previous day in a specific directory to be moved to a folder that has been created with the previous dates title.
For example, Motion creates a series of jpg files in a directory called snapshots. I would like to have the script run and find all the files that were created yesterday in the snapshots directory (including avi files it has created), and move them into a folder with yesterday's date as the title on it.
Has anyone tried this before? Does motion already have this functionality built in and I am just not seeing it?
The next step will be to have it auto purge itself after 7-14 days, but that's a whole other post.

Ive got some ripped dvd's in VOB format on my server. I want to stream these to another device I.e. another pc with VLC across my network. How?
On the server side:
By this will serve videos using HTTP over port 8080, which might not be terribly efficient. If this becomes an issue, take a look at this superuser question for RTSP solution: Using VLC as RTSP server.
VLC can also act as a client for your vobs:
assuming /path/to/your/vobs/filename.vob exists and is playable by VLC.
Note! I could not get this to work with files that have spaces in their names.

Attendance Policy
Podcasting is not a substitute for class attendance. All missed classes are counted against the student as an absence even if the student listens to a podcast of the missed class.
All classes will be recorded. Podcasts will be posted as soon as possible after they are recorded, unless the professor's own policy stipulates that podcasts be released only when authorized. In these cases, students must make podcast release requests directly to the professor.
No direct requests by students to the Associate Dean or other law school personnel will be honored.
The decision to make podcasts available is solely within the discretion of the professor unless it involves an ADA accommodation.
Conditions for Granting Podcast Requests
– Podcasts will be available to ADA students as an approved accommodation using the same process as all other ADA accommodations.
– Each professor may set his or her own criteria for granting podcast requests. Professors must make podcasts available to all students under uniform criteria to avoid any appearance of discrimination or favoritism.
All podcasts will be removed from the server each semester when the last exam, including make-ups, for that class has been administered.
Use and Dissemination of Podcasts
All podcasts are the property of Drake Law School and the professor and may not be redistributed in any form to any person.

In literature of every genre, some of the most interesting reflection takes place in transit. Write about a time when you were in transit of some kind—on a train, plane, bus, or bike, in a car or even on foot. Write about where you were going and why, and focus on what you were thinking, seeing, and feeling as you moved.

In June 2012, Matthew and Michael Dickman released Fifty American Plays (Poems) (Copper Canyon Press), a book of poem-plays about the fifty American states. Choose a state (or region or country outside of the United States) that you feel a deep connection to and write a poem about it. Give the reader a sense of the landscape and mood you associate with the place. As an additional challenge, try to convey a sense of the location without ever naming it in the poem.

In her essay "The Art of Finding" originally published in American Poet in 2006, Linda Gregg advises poets to be more attuned to the physical world and to find concrete images that possess a special vibrancy. Gregg writes about how she asks her students to keep "a journal in which they must write, very briefly, six things they have seen each day—not beautiful or remarkable things, just things." Try this exercise for one week, and at the end of the week, use two images from your journal in a poem.

"The timing of the latest hike in banks' reserve-requirement ratio is a little earlier than expected, indicating China will remain tough on its monetary-policy stance," said Xu Wei, an analyst at Sinolink Securities.
The People's Bank of China said Friday it will raise the share of deposits that banks must keep on reserve by half a percentage point effective Thursday, after six such increases last year and two interest-rate rises since October. The central bank's tightening moves underscore Chinese officials' resolve to combat inflation. And analysts expect further moves.
"The consumer-price index is likely to rebound in January due to strong holiday demand after an expected slower growth in December, so the likelihood of another interest-rate hike is still high," said Zhang Yanbin, an analyst at Zheshang Securities.
Mark Williams, senior China economist at Capital Economics, wrote in a note to clients that the firm expects six additional reserve-ratio increases in 2011.
The Shanghai Composite Index slid 84.68 points to 2706.66, its lowest close since Sept. 30. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index fell 0.5% to 24156.97. Japan's Nikkei Stock Average was little changed, up 3.82 points to 10502.86. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 fell 0.8% to 4763.07, while South Korea's Kospi declined 0.4% to 2099.85.
Leading decliners on mainland China exchanges included Poly Real Estate Group, 600048 -0.44 % which tumbled 8.7% in Shanghai, and China Vanke, 000002 -2.02 % down 7% in Shenzhen. China Oilfield Services fell 7.9% and Cosco Shipping dropped 6.3%, both in Shanghai. Among lenders, China Everbright Bank 601818 -1.02 % lost 5.3%, China Construction Bank fell 4.1% and Industrial & Commercial Bank of China dropped 2.8% in Shanghai.
In Hong Kong, those three banks fell 1.9%, 2.1% and 1.3%, respectively. Mainland developers also fell in Hong Kong. China Resources Land 1109 -2.12 % dropped 3.7% and China Overseas Land fell 1.8%. But Hong Kong property companies stood out for their strong performance. Property-to-ports conglomerate Hutchison Whampoa rose 2.4%. DBS Vickers wrote in a report that it expects further upside for Hong Kong landlords.
In Tokyo, construction-machinery makers linked to Chinese demand weighed on the market. Komatsu fell 1% and Hitachi Construction Machinery 6305 3.62 % slid 1.3%.
In Sydney, weakness in mining stocks offset strength in the consumer-staples sector. BHP Billiton fell 1.2% and Newcrest Mining NCMGY 7.15 % shed 1.3%.
In Seoul, the technology sector was lifted by investor optimism over the U.S. economic recovery and demand for electronic goods after U.S. retail-sales data showed a slight increase in December. Samsung Electronics rose 1.7% and LG Electronics gained 1.3%.

Thanks Leanned and Nathan!
Was a pleasure to be there, everything was pefect and we spend a very nice time.
It was very nice to stay at Leanne in Haarlem. We had enough space, the apartment is well equipped and comfortable. The view to the river is very scenic. Its very easy to get to the city centre of Haarlem by foot, bike or public transport. Leanne gave us her bikes. Thank you!
Everything was great. Nice, modern, clean and well equipped apartment plus very friendly owner. We had a wonderful time!
We had fantastic stay in Haarlem. Nathan and Leanne were most helpful prior to and
during our stay and helped answer any questions we had and provided us with directions as needed.
The apartment is beautiful,clean and well maintained. The house is right on the
canal in a quiet area of Haarlem but an easy bike ride to the town centre and station.
We enjoyed our days out to Amsterdam, the bulb fields and coast and Haarlem it's self is a pretty and interesting town.
We would highly recommend the apartment. We hope to go back again next year and spend more time enjoying the Dutch relaxed way of life.
Very lovely home, very nicely well located with lots of amenities very close by! Bikes were included in the price, so you are able to ride around the city. Would definitely stay there again, and recommend to others!
It was a nice time in Haarlem. The appartment was wonderful and we enjoyed, to go by bike trough the town.
Thanks a lot for the wonderful time in Haarlem. Our stay would definitely not have been that fantastic without this marvelous apartment at the beautiful location and the warm hospitality of Leanne and family. Thanks a lot once again for providing the bikes as well! They helped us explore Haarlem's most exciting places! We feel ourself very lucky that we chose this apartment!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Chad13 Great stay Wonderful stay. This hotel is run extraordinary well, friendly and professional. Great job once again! December 22, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by Larisa321 New rules ? I always come to stay to this hotel when away on business. Every time I come You offer a free upgrade, subject of availability. Last week you charge my account additional funds for "free" upgrade. That is when hotel was half empty and plenty rooms were available. ?. December 14, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cookietdctl426 Convenient/Luxury Location for Business or Pleasure Recently enjoyed two nights to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Hotel gave us complimentary champagne/chocolate covered strawberries! Only problem was rowdy guests in adjoining room laughing/talking loudly between 11:30 pm and midnight-not the fault of the hotel. Staff are exceptional as is the resort as a whole. December 8, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Shera31 Smell & Lack of Items on Room Service menu The aweful smell of the river will creep into room early in the morning. The lack of additional items on room service menu was a disappointment as not many restaurants will deliver due to the location of the hotel. The overall room was nice and hotel bUT all the fees are exorbant. December 1, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by SPG1 Great location The hotel is located across the river from old town Savannah which is easily accessible by a free ferry service. Our platinum upgrade was great - corner suite on a high floor facing the river however the platinum continental breakfast was poor (the only thing negative about the hotel). As Christmas was approaching, the hotel was beautifully decorated, both inside and out with many lights and decorations throughout. December 1, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by robby Overall Good Experience I don't often have time to do these survey's but the quality of my stay and experience made me want to reach out to the Savannah property. Overall the quality was very good with the staff being very attentive, both at the hotel and the golf course. It was a very busy weekend with many Christmas activities but the service levels remained strong. My only criticism was the lack of people working at the hotel and golf resort on Thanksgiving day. I understand it is a holiday but we are paying full price so the levels of service should recognize that as well. November 30, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by AvidTraveler666 Very disappointed with the service received at the hotel Stayed there for 2 nights and had a corporate event there. Staff was rude and food was awful. Also, I think the room needs some renovation. It started to show its age. That said, the staff at the pro shop was excellent and the golf course was in good condition. I also like the location of the hotel. I just wish the service was better. November 28, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by JMurphy329 I can't wait to come back! I wish I had more time! My husband and I stopped in for a little less than 24 hours. We ate at Aqua Star and experienced great food and great service. We had drinks and chatted with the bartender in the lounge. Everyone was so nice! We spent a hour in the hot tub at night on the river. The cargo ships came through and it was like nothing we had seen up close. After a great night sleep we woke to Spa appointments. The ladies at the Heavenly Spa were great. We were pampered as soon as we walked in the door. We had a river view room (highly recommend) and watched dolphins play during the day. I was very sad when we left but grateful for the time we had! Can't wait to come back and have some extra time. You never have to leave the Westin but River St. is just a ferry ride away.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Keem86 Great Service I loved the entire staff especially Mr. Alex and Ms.Simmons. they were very welcoming. I always enjoy going to other properties to see how i will be treated as an employee. i will say they did a GREAT job. the service was consistent. The entire staff made me feel welcomed. November 6, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Flacasouth Quick Stay I stayed at this hotel on 10/26/15 while traveling from NJ to Florida. I had stayed here before so it was my first choice. I booked 2 rooms for the night. I was disappointed with the kind of service I received from the time I checked in because the front desk individual wrote the price I was paying in front of the envelope holding all of the keys. As I was paying for both rooms I was not pleased to have the information given to my sisters who were occupying the second room. Then I noticed there was no bottled water in my room. After 4 hours and requests from guest services, a personal visit to the front desk and finally a request to speak with the night manager the water was brought up to my room. However, I was made to believe that it was my fault for having the Do Not Disturb sign on my door (had just set up the sign on door due to the time, almost midnight). The next morning I ordered 2 cappuccinos and a bagel but no sugar was brought up for the coffee. At this point I was not surprised that an additional request was not done correctly. I will have to say the sugar was brought up quickly unlike the water. November 3, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by bark staff responsiveness Lattice returned my phone calls to check on room clearance Mitchell at the front desk went out of his way to help me find a misplaced phone. When we were asked to move ,Tracy , provided us with a corner room Phan ,housekeeping, extremely helpful and so pleasant Merry ,concierge extremely helpful You have wonderful staff October 30, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Profth This hotel makes you feel welcome. The registration was quick and easy, very friendly staff. The only remission was that I learned later others in my group were given the option of going green and thus getting morning extras and $5 coupons. I was not given that option. I usually agree there is no need to change my towels and bedding daily. Even without rewards, I am very environmentally conscious. Front valet and concierge staff were very helpful. October 26, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by cltfoodie Great Location! Great Hotel! What an amazing hotel! Situated in a prime location to downtown Savannah with easy access from the FREE ferry! Service in the Midnight Sun is lacking, but the drinks (once finally served) are superb. Don't forget to ask for your drink in a plastic cup since you can walk the streets with 16oz of alcohol. The rooms are clean and very comfortable with amazing views of a beautiful city. October 25, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by ss0324 Disappointed I have stayed at this resort a few times in the last 4 years or so. This last time I was actually extremely disappointed in the facility. the Check in was good and my status we recognized but once we got to the room it was evident that the house keeping staff was not on top of their game. there were napkins in the coffee area with lipstick on them... there were tissue remnants stuck to the counter in the bathroom. only a single bottle of water and one coffee pod when my reservation clearly had two adults in the room. the house keeping staff was knocking on our door at 8 AM for cleaning and I told them that we would be leaving later that morning and please come back then. The attendant called through the door that I should have put out my DND sign...we left for the day around 11AM and I saw the housekeeping staff in the hallway... we even made eye contact. we came back to the room about 7 hours later to a messy room that had not been attended to. All in all it was atypical of a Westin resort, but it made an impression and I doubt that given the choice I would come back to this resort. I will say that as I checked out I explained what happened to the front desk and they were very apologetic and added 1000 points to my account. so Front staff gets a 10 house keeping a 1... October 19, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by LadyGator Repeat Customer tired of the repeated service FAILURES I have refrained from writing reviews about this resort in the past even though I have experienced numerous service and staff issues in the past but I have held on to the hope that these incidences were isolated and would be non-existent the next time around but, alas, I have had one too many failed service experience with this place to let it go one more time. let me start with the positive...The location and convenience of using the ferry to the downtown area is an absolute plus. It's a fairly beautifully appointed property with great potential. However, the staff seems to be clueless in the ways of dealing with customers especially those with elite status. As a platinum member, I have traveled around the world and have experienced the best that SPG has to offer. I have become accustomed to the service excellence displayed by Starwood and this property seems to be missing the mark every time I go there. My husband and I planned our anniversary celebration there and after reserving on points he went ahead of me to check in while I planned to join him a bit later. It was a comedy of errors (except not very funny at all) from not recognizing the reservation, to not recognizing my platinum status, to their plain aloofness, and to not following through on their service promise to send us some "great amenities" to celebrate the occasion. While they did try to make up by ultimately upgrading us to a suite, their lack of follow through and continuity across all levels of the hotel was just absolutely maddening. From one department to the next and from one shift to another, there was absolutely no connective threads!!!! Tracy at the front desk promised us some (unsolicited but appreciated) anniversary amenities by 6:00 pm that evening. When that came and went, a call to the front desk resulted in the bland "well I don't know what you are asking for but we have no notes alerting us to this". After a quick exchange, the person agreed to make up for it by sending the amenities right away. Well the evening came and went with nothing, no acknowledgment, no calls apologizing for the missed opportunity... Come morning time when Tracy came back, she apologized profusely but rather shallowly about not following through on he promise and after much haggling agreed to "make up" for their lackluster service by offering 5,000 points which I have yet to see attached to my account.... I am doing my best to just state the issue rather simply but this was a very frustrating experience especially when this property has never failed to MISS the mark with us. It's a litany of past and present unprofessional behaviors from female front desk staff shamelessly flirting with my husband to just being aloof and borderline uncouth. I am afraid that this is NOT what I have come to know and love about being a Starwood Loyalist. Their only redeeming grace is a customer-savy bartender and a very thoughtful and professional lady at the concierge desk. I believe they may have seen the last of us. I have no issues going to the sister property a few miles away to get away from what appears to be a rather chronic case of ineptitude and unappealing customer service at the Westin Savannah property. Too bad!... October 18, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by VeryGoodPointsStacey Sleepless Nights I've stayed at this Westin about 8-10 times in the past 2 years. The hotel is comfortable, well-kept and always clean. The rooms are adequate and the rooms that look onto the river have stunning views. The challenge is that the boats on the river can be noisy. Both nights during my recent stay very loud ship horns sounded. Friday at 4am and Saturday at 5am. The sound is loud and long enough to wake you from a slumber. I wouldn't recommend staying at the hotel because of the noise if you're counting on sleep. If you're not worried about sleeping...then the hotel will meet your needs. September 28, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Staycation Wonderful Stay Exceptional Southern Hospitality. September 28, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by jessica4 small rooms for the price Staff was friendly. No complimentary breakfast and the hotel restaurant is expensive. Had to pay resort fee of $22 so our total was over $200. The room is small and not very clean (dirt by baseboards and in corners, fingerprints on everything). No refrigerator or microwave. The next night we stayed at a different hotel that was a queen suite (double the size of this room with refrigerator and microwave) for only $130. Don't get very much at all for your money at the Westin. September 5, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Carhartt Always Perfection Another great trip to the Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort and Spa! From check in to check out the experience was incredible. The staff is friendly and warm. The hotel is clean. The food is incredible. Great job! September 5, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by NewgirlGA Associate Director The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The facilities were beautiful. September 2, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Huhman Avoid rooms near Hospitality Suite Good staff and really good food BUT avoid any rooms near a hospitality suite. Room 334 is one of the worst I ever had and I travel a lot. The door does not shut soundly and the room across is a hospitality suite. The door slamming jarred my door and when it could not get any worse the fight started with screaming and threats. Men and women were roaming the halls hurling profanity laced threats of harm. I tried to call security but the room phone did not work. Cell phone worked and security came and they moved me but no sleep was reached that night. It ended well but observe where your room is and ask to be moved from these kinds of areas. August 31, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by 3d01040607 Disgusted,disappointed,dissatisfied First let me say the location of the Westin is the most beautiful view one could ask for. Also the hotel is really really beautiful at night. And I guess for an overall view of the looks in the lobby and the grounds they were great. Now let me speak for the room. I stayed on the 16th for which is for Starwood preferred guest only. So yes the view is magnificent. But going into my room the first thing that stuck out was the large dust balls that were hugging the legs of the table and chairs. Meaning that these rooms are not throughly cleaned each and every time the maid service go in. Also I was there for a full week and the maid finally came in on Thursday to clean the room..(all the other days I'm not sure why we were not given maidservice because we never had a do not disturb sign on the door. After staying in a room for a full week my floor literally needed a vacuum so bad we begin to try and sweep and pick up with our hands. I guess someone may say why didn't I call and just request maid service. First of all,I had gone thru so much H--- when booking this reservation 31/2 to 4 weeks out. This was a anniversary celebration and after 3 weeks of a promise to call back I finally got the issue straightened with my registration being messed up 4 days before my arrival. So instead of planning our days prior to I spent a days calling long distant using hours of talk time on my cell. Thank God for unlimited but still it's the principal. The hotel also had issue with ripped carpet and terrible freys that were so bad that when coming out of the restroom my shoe got caught on the Frey and I also lost my footing and ran in the mirror. Also on Friday we decided to go sight seeing , we left out at 10am and returned about 345pm to come and find our room was just starting to be cleaned because it was listed as a check out even though check out for us was Saturday Yet when I ask the manger on duty why we were listed as check out she lied and said we were not but I knew different because i seen the check out sheet. We thought that after a long day of hot and humid heat our first wish was to come in and shower and catch a nap. That didn't happen because the maid had just started and our room had not been cleaned since we checked in. After speaking with the front desk about all the things that were unsatisfactory I felt that the things she offered were a slap in our face. Of course she offered breakfast voucher and drink voucher but the problem was our stay it was just not Westin standard. She offered points back on my SPG but I just could not bear this last thing that was the straw that broke the camels back. We get up the last morning to begin packing and as my husband was going to get ice to fill the cooled there were three large place right above our door was water dripping so fast it had saturated the carpet. Their explanation was the roof was leaking and it would have to be fixed a lil later it was to early to start knocking with a hammer because it was 830am. I think we he truly wanted to say is the owner is right next door to you and I'm sure he would not be happy with me waking him with trying to fix this repair.I tried to have patience and not sweat the small stuff but we could not concentrate on our anniversary because there was issues daily. I made sure I got a video of every complaint I made because I done plan on stopping here. Also knowing that the owner was right next door slid a not of displeasure under his door before I left. I felt is was important for him to know that things like this can hurt his business and tarnish the Westin brand..... August 30, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by Yushi Had a terrible experience. I have been bringing a group of eight women to Savannah for many years. Over time, we have stayed in a variety of hotels. Most recently, we have been staying at the Westin. However, we will not be staying at the Westin for our future trips to this beautiful city because of the lack of customer service we experienced during our August 2015 stay. After a long drive to Savannah, instead of enjoying the sites, my friends and I spent the afteroon making corrections to our room assignments. It was not until 6pm that we were able to check into our accommodations. When I approached the manager on duty about my concerns, he promptly handed me the Westin reservation phone number for the call center to handle my complaint as he did not feel this incident was his problem to deal with. After spending over one hour on the phone with various customer service representatives, again, instead of seeing Savannah, I was told that a case file was opened for my concern and that I should hear something in the next 72 hours. Later that evening, as an olive branch, the manager on duty, sent complementary breakfast meal passes to our rooms. However, the vast majoriy of my party left the hotel at 6am prior to the hotel serviing breakfast. When I tried to check out at 6am, there was no staff on duty at the desk. I left the unused meal tickets on the lobby desk and departed without being able to check out. Only later, having to call in to check out and try to make corrections to the room charges. In the end, I have still not heard about the "case file" that was opened 8/16/15 when I called the Westin call center. Nor am I clear on whose credit card(s) the hotel bills have been charged.

Rated 2 out of 5 by WestinGuest2015 Very, very disappointed Very poor service for the price: my room wasn't ready at check- in, I wasn't given the pet package that I had paid for (I had to ask to get it after I checked in), I didn't receive the services that I had requested several times during my stay (had to make multiple requests), my dirty room service tray was left in the hall for 12 hours, one room service meal was incomplete and both meals that I ordered were lukewarm. The staff was very nice but the problems with the service left me very frustrated and ruined my stay. August 10, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Msomething1983 Weekend in Savannah,GA The hotel is very nice. Above average and the staff are polite. Antonio was extremely helpful in helping us be sure we got a room facing the River Street. The breakfast was typical Westin breakfast buffet but it was still great. Overall the location is great and the ferry ride across the water is one of a kind. July 30, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by mbranden2 Good, but a few suggestions Overall stay was good. Nice hotel and great location. Pool bar could open at 10am with food, most people at the pool made similar comments. Biggest disappoint was the golf course was closed all weekend for a private event – primary reason we stayed at the hotel. Was planning to play Sat and Sun (Sat was my birthday). Concierge was great – nice touch with the personalized menu at the Chart House. July 28, 2015

Wild Roomies is a character study of roommates Kelly Royce and Sarah Jane Hamilton – and if you've ever had a roommate, you know there always comes a point where you just want to kill him (or her). With Sarah-Jane constantly whining that she wants to be more like Kelly, you can sympathize with Ms. Royce when she blows up and tells the weepy bitch to shut up already.
Kelly is the more obviously sexual of the two. She screws Jonathan Morgan in her room to the distraction of Sarah-Jane. To better indoctrinate Sarah into the lifestyle of modern girls, Kelly tries a threeway with Alex Sanders and Sarah – and it's one of the best threesomes I've seen in quite a while; definitely award caliber, and it has anal, too, courtesy of the British redhead.
Sarah-Jane continues her education by paying Ian Daniels and Shelby Stevens to do each other while she watches and makes mental notes. Ditto for Chayse Manhattan and Nikki Sinn, who screw each other (and Sarah) at Sarah's behest, in one of the best girly three-ways in many a month. There's strap-on action and everything!
The finale is a good scene, even if it doesn't make a lot of sense. Jon Dough isn't as responsive to Kelly's whip as she feels he should be, so she leaves and brings in substitute Isis Nile, possessor of the best eyes in porn. This leads to another winner scene.
The color is beautiful and sound is perfect, as in all VCA releases. And don't forget a nomination for Sarah-Jane as Best Actress for this pot-boiler. Wild Roomies should be on the charts for quite a while.

I have a
Map (Int, Int) a where
a can be any type. Based on the Tuple2 stored in the array as key I wanna create a String table which stores the values of the map.
Because the maximal values of the Tuple2 are known and can be large, my first thought was to create a mutable 2D-Array with a default value. While iterating over the entries of the Map, this array could be filled and then printed out. A pseudo-code example with a Map of Ints:
map = Map (Int, Int) Int
table = Array.ofDim (maxY, maxX) withDefaultValue 0
for ((x,y), int) <- map do
table[y][x] = int
rows = table.rows map toString
str = rows map (toString ++ lineEnd)
print str
The only problem is: I don't know how to do this in Haskell. Furthermore I don't know if this is the preferred way one goes in Haskell.
I didn't find good examples how to use 2D-Arrays in Haskell, thus can someone give me one? If there is a better way to do this, maybe with a built-in data type such as Table, Matrix, 2DStringBuilder etc., can someone show me an example how to use them?

Peter Morici, "Recalibrating U.S.-China"Posted on June 11th, 2009 No comments
June 11, 2009
The United States now confronts its greatest economic challenges since the Great Depression. In addition to resolving crises in financial and housing markets, trade deficits with China and on oil must be addressed for the U.S. economy to achieve robust growth.
Fixing credit markets and energy policy are largely domestic challenges, whereas recalibrating trade with China requires cooperation from Beijing. However, such cooperation requires fundamental changes in Chinese industrial policies and a departure from maintaining an undervalued yuan to spur industrial development.
Chinese Industrial and Currency Policies
Since the late 1970s, China has transformed from a centrally-planned economy dominated by state enterprises to a public-private economy highly responsive to global market opportunities.
China has accomplished dramatic growth and modernization by empowering town and village enterprises, private businesses and foreign-invested enterprises, and delegating smaller, though still significant, roles to national state-owned enterprises. Exports are critical to this strategy.
In addition to exploiting comparative advantages in labor-intensive manufacturing, China has applied industrial policies and regulation on foreign investment to ensure the rapid development of priority industries where it may lack the resources, technology and a comparative advantage.
For example, China lacks adequate metallic resources to produce large amounts of steel competitively, and modern capital equipment and technology were initially purchased on global markets. Yet, China exports steel even when transportation costs to destination markets are greater than total labor costs in those markets. Similarly, China should be importing many more automobiles to meet its requirements, but Beijing encourages foreign automakers to assemble cars and source parts in China, and to transfer technology to indigenous firms.
China maintains an undervalued yuan that makes exports cheaper in foreign markets and imports more expensive at home. The Chinese government persistently purchases dollars and other currencies with yuan to suppress its value, rather than permitting market forces to determine its value. It converts those purchases into U.S. Treasury securities and foreign assets.
In 2008, Chinese monetary authorities purchased more than $400 billion in U.S. and other foreign currencies-this was about 10 percent of China's GDP and 25 percent of its exports. China holds about $2 trillion in foreign exchange reserves, mostly in U.S. securities.
Undervaluation subsidizes exports and protects domestic industries from import competition, and contributes importantly to trade deficits in the United States and other countries. The Chinese people consume 10 percent less than they produce to finance China's large trade surpluses and production that exceeds consumption in the United States and elsewhere.
The rapid pace of modernization and productivity growth in China should rapidly drive up the dollar value of the yuan; however, in 1995, the Chinese government pegged the yuan at 8.28 per dollar.
In July 2005, China adjusted this peg to 8.11 and announced the yuan would be aligned to a basket of currencies. Subsequently, the yuan still tracked the dollar quite closely, falling slowly to 6.83 it July 2008. Since, the yuan has fluctuated closely around that value-essentially, China has repegged the yuan.
From 1995 to 2008, the annual U.S. trade deficit with China grew from $34 to $266 billion, accounting for virtually all of the increase in the U.S. non-oil deficit from $44 to $282 billon.
Imported oil petroleum contributes significantly to the U.S. trade deficits. From 1995 to 2008, the petroleum deficit increased from $34 to $386 billion. This huge deficit is caused primarily by the failure to impose higher mileage standards on automobiles, implement other fossil-fuel saving technologies, and to develop U.S. domestic oil and gas resources.
Together, imports of oil and from China account for 90 percent of the U.S. trade deficit, and that deficit has averaged more than 5 percent of GDP over the last five years.
In theory, increased imports of manufacturers from China and petroleum should shift U.S. employment from import-competing industries to export activities. Since export industries create about 10 percent more value added per employee and undertake more R&D than import-competing industries, this would raise U.S productivity and GDP growth. Those are the expected gains from expanding trade based on comparative advantage.
Instead, large trade deficits shift U.S. employment from trade-competing industries into nontrade-competing industries. Trade-competing industries create at least 50 percent more value added per employee, and spend more than three times as much R&D per dollar of value added, than nontrade-competing industries. By shifting labor and capital into nontrade-competing industries, chronic trade deficits have reduced U.S. economic growth by at least one percentage point a year, or about 25 percent of potential GDP growth.*
Lost growth is cumulative. Had trade deficits been significantly smaller over the last two decades, U.S. GDP would likely be $3 trillion or 20 percent greater than it is today.
Trade Deficits and the Recession
Dollars spent abroad cannot be spent on U.S. goods and services.
With the trade deficit at 5 percent of GDP, Americans must spend 105 percent of what they earn, or the demand for U.S. goods and services exceeds the supply, inventories of new homes, cars and other goods mount, layoffs result, and the economy slips into recession.
During the recent economic expansion, purchases of U.S. securities by China, Middle East oil states and other foreign investors kept interest rates low on long-term bonds, even when the Federal Reserve raised its target rates on short-term paper. This permitted U.S. financial institutions to offer homebuyers and consumers very attractive term mortgages and other consumer loans. Many Americans spent more than they earned, and this kept the economic expansion going. When the credit bubble burst, consumer demand collapsed and the economy fell into recession.
Certainly, inappropriate lending standards, and aggressive marketing of loans packaged into securities to private and foreign investors, by U.S. financial institutions permitted the bubble to occur.
Even with lending and securitization practices reformed and credit markets restored, the demand for U.S. goods and services will not again be adequate, and the U.S. economy cannot again achieve robust and sustainable growth, unless either consumers spend more than they earn and Americans finance it all by borrowing from abroad or the trade deficit is significantly reduced to redirect more U.S. spending to domestic suppliers of goods and services.
The $789 billion stimulus spending approved by Congress will help lift demand for U.S. goods and services, temporarily, and help the economy recover. Essentially, government spending and borrowing from foreigners is replacing consumer spending and borrowing to prop up aggregate demand.
However, once the stimulus spending is through, consumers must again borrow and spend more than they earn to sustain demand for U.S. goods and services and keep the recovery going, or the trade deficit must be reduced significantly. Otherwise demand will flag and the recovery will collapse.
To reduce the trade deficit, the United States will need several strategies to reduce dependence on foreign oil. The increase in automotive mileage standards to be implemented by 2016 and Obama Administration initiatives to develop alternative energy sources will help. However, abundant domestic oil and gas resources remain untapped, and with oil likely to head above $100 or even $150 a barrel, these resources will be needed in addition to conservation and alternatives to fossil fuels.
Regarding nonenergy trade, no solution is possible without recalibrating trade with China, and that requires revaluing the yuan dollar exchange rate to a level consistent with more balanced trade. That entails raising the value of the Chinese yuan, administratively or letting market forces revalue the yuan to a level that does not require Chinese monetary authorities to consistently purchase and accumulate dollars and other currencies to sustain its value.
Engaging China
The United States has engaged in high level talks with China since negotiations for its entry into the World Trade Organization. Most recently, the Strategic Economic Dialogue was launched in 2007.
Throughout this process the United States has encouraged China to more substantially raise the value of the yuan, which would require Beijing to purchase fewer dollars and other currencies to sustain its value. Instead, China has increased its foreign exchange market intervention as the gap between the official value of the yuan and its fundamental value has widened. This has exacerbated the damage to the U.S. economy and China's other trading partners.
The United States has three broad policy options to leverage change.
First, the United States could bring a complaint in the World Trade Organization. China's currency policy policies create a WTO illegal subsidy on exports, and subvert the benefits its trading partners expected when they acceded to China's entry into the world trade body.
Were the United States to bring such a suit, other WTO members would likely join the petition. If they prevailed, either China would have to stop intervening in currency markets, or face tariffs–approved by the WTO and imposed by WTO members participating in the complaint–to redress the trade imbalance. Those tariffs would be strictly temporary and removed when China complied with the WTO decision, ended currency market intervention, and let the yuan rise in value.
Second, the United States, consistent with its WTO obligations may impose tariffs on imported goods that receive government subsidies, if those goods harm U.S. industries when they enter U.S. markets. Until 2006, the United States did not apply the subsidy and countervailing duty law to commerce with China, but in a case regarding imports of Chinese paper, the Bush Administration changed that policy. However, in addressing the domestic industry's petition, the Bush Administration denied application of the subsidy and countervailing duty law to China's undervalued currency.
Bills sponsored by Senators Jim Bunning (R-KY) and Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) in the Senate and by Representatives Tim Ryan (D-OH) and Tim Murphy (R-PA) would make more likely the subsidy implicit in an undervalued currency were included in the computation countervailing duties in both dumping and subsidy cases, when a "fundamental and actionable misalignment" is present. Such circumstances would be determined by a standard consistent with International Monetary Fund guidelines.
Third, Americans need to accommodate to the fact that China is much less a market economy, either by design or by policy, than North American and Western European economies.
Its financial system may not be able to sustain an unmanaged floating exchange rate; however, China can manage the value of the yuan at 4 as easily as it does 6.8. In fact, it would be a lot easier to manage a value closer to balance of payments equilibrium.
Simply, the United States could offer China an opportunity, with a hard deadline, to manage down its trade surplus with the United States, either through meaningful and complete currency revaluation-complete means raising the dollar value for the yuan to a level that reduces China's trade surplus to zero-or through other mutually acceptable changes in China's domestic policies.
If China declines, the United States should simply tax dollar-yuan conversion in proportion to its official and surrogate currency market interventions. The United States should impose a tax equal to the quarterly value of China's intervention divided by its exports of goods and services. China would then have a strong incentive to reduce and then stop intervening.
If China does not reduce and eliminate intervention and chooses for the United States to tax currency conversion, then the benefits from a revalued yuan of higher prices for Chinese imports that should go to Chinese businesses would instead go into the U.S. Treasury. If China reduces and then eliminates one-way intervention and lets its currency rise to a value that balances trade, Chinese businesses would capture those benefits in the form of higher dollar prices for their goods.
Eliminating the trade deficit with China by eliminating or at least redressing currency manipulation would have a much greater stimulus effect on the economy than the stimulus spending approved by Congress. It would permanently increase aggregate demand for U.S. goods and services, whereas the benefits of the stimulus spending are temporary. As importantly, it would restore incentives for the efficient use of labor and capital that free trade would normally provide.
Affirmative policies to redressing the trade deficit with China would not be protectionist. China's currency policies are protectionist, and efforts to obtain a revision of these policies would restore balance to their trading system and permit both economies to grow and prosper, consistent with their resources and comparative advantages.

The way the Giants select today, they would not have selected Lawrence Taylor
Not to be believed, not a good idea.
Getting tired of seeing Beckham being body slammed by db's, in last two games.
Ever hear of a guy named Alex Webster
Every here of a guy named Alex Webster
I think your right on the money, if he was a keeper word would have been out by now, the longer no word the more it looks like he's gone.
Romo has 9 seconds plus and the Giants only rush 4 against one of the best O lines, recipe for failure, then admits his mistake after the fact. our best rushers sitting on the bench?????????
How sad its comes to this, Tom has just made a case of putting his foot in his mouth.
LT was taken with the second pick.
Sorry to say, TC is fighting to hold his job, not going to see it happen, last year in the same situation he played Eli and he needed ankle surgery, and Beattry broke his leg, he insisted on...
Now that the season is officially over, are we going to see a replay of last year.?
TC plays the regulars, exposing them to injury while he fights to keep his job.
The mantra is going to be, want...
Giant miscue, Will Hill returns interception for Ravens TD. This Organization has me puzzled?????????????????
Diamontre Moore and Robert Ayers sit, our best rushers, while Kuhn and Patterson play on the final drive.
Only Four man rush against ,one the best O lines.
Romo has over 9 seconds to find his...
Convert Larry Donnell to wide receiver, better receiver than blocking tight end,
play Daniel Fells for blocking alternate with A Robinson.
ok i accept your explanation, How do you think we will do this season??
What would you call them//
Why did Tom play Eli and Beatty in two meanless games???
Why did Tom exposed A Robinson to injury by insisting he play on special teams??
Why did we not pick Zach Martin???
Hope Mosley is ready.
IN the big game who would you rather have???
he is way past 30
Injury prone played very little
1. This draft is very deep indeed so no need to invest this early in offensive lineman. Skill position at either WR Evans to replace Nicks or TE Ebron, who wants to play here and be part of Ben...
Tuck wants to stay, where can you get endorsement like NY, he's making noise to renegotiate his contract.
Lewan or Ebron at this point the Giants pick Joe Palooka from Boston College.
I agree with your assessment, Larry Donnell making progress, according to Jphn Smelk
Save the money for Tuck and Joseph

HAT YAI, Thailand — HAT YAI, Thailand (AP) — Eight soldiers and five journalists were injured in two consecutive bomb blasts Saturday in Thailand's insurgency-plagued south, police said.
The first bomb went off on a road in Ra-ngae district in Narathiwat province, injuring six soldiers who were on foot patrol, said Police Col. Jiradet Phrasawang. Three of the soldiers were in serious condition.
The second bomb exploded an hour later about 100 meters (328 feet) from the first blast as a bomb squad and journalists were arriving at the scene, Jiradet said.
Two Explosive Ordnance Disposal officers were hurt in the second blast, and five journalists — a Thai photographer for the French news agency Agence France-Presse and two reporters from Thai television stations — were slightly wounded, Jiradet said.
The AFP photographer was identified as 44-year-old Madaree Tohlala.
More than 5,000 people have been killed in predominantly Buddhist Thailand's three Muslim-dominated southernmost provinces since an Islamic insurgency erupted in 2004.
The regular attacks in the sub-region, with security officers as one of the main targets, are seen as a hindrance to the Thai government's attempt to revive peace talks with the Muslim militants after both sides signed a breakthrough deal in February, agreeing to hold discussions to ease nearly a decade of violence. New talks have repeatedly been postponed since insurgents in August accused the government of failing to respond to their demands.

Generally speaking, I think the brunch food here is a little hit or miss. Plenty of it is boring and not as flavorful as it could be. However, you cannot really beat sitting upstairs on their adorable roof deck with a lamb burger and a cold glass of rose on a balmy evening - still one of my best dining experiences to date! I would say skip the brunch and go for dinner on the roof when it's open - and wait even if it's a long one - it's worth it!
If you love French-inspired cuisine and greenhouses, this is the perfect brunch spot in Williamsburg. The cafe nails typical brunch favorites like Eggs Benedict and Banana Stuffed French Toast—the quiche and the croque monsieur is also delicious. You can eat outside or on the roof deck (instant plus!), but dining indoors is also treat, since there's a sun room with hanging plants and bistro-style tables and chairs. It's perfectly quaint.
The spicy lamb burger is fantastic! It's full of flavor and really hits the spot when you're super hungry. The atmosphere is nice and so is the service.I definitely recommend this place.
Love the place and the vibe. Now they have Happy hour during the week and sometimes they have a DJ. Food is great if u are not vegan or vegetarian, and the cocktails are pretty solid like you are in a speak easy cocktail bar in the city. Service is on and off sometimes but it's a perfect spot and close to the train! Highly recommended.
Despite the fact that everyone else seems to love Juliette in Williamsburg, I just can't get behind it. It has one of those menus where nothing at all seems to jump out at me. But despite that, everything I've ever ordered has been very well cooked, and the place is beautiful, especially downstairs in the room with the hanging green plants. There's plenty of space and a lovely rooftop. When my mom visited me, we sat right on the edge and people-watched as we ate. To me, there are plenty of places nearby that are a lot more exciting than Juliette.
