Children should always have an eye examination before they begin school to insure there are no vision problems. Undetected vision problems in children have a great impact on the way they can or cannot learn. It's not always easy to choose the right pair of eyeglasses for the children. Parents are often confused when they visit the optician with the intention of picking out a pair of eyeglasses for their children. There are various kinds of spectacle frames which are made exclusively for children. But it is still not easy choosing eyeglasses for your child. There are two factors you need to consider when buying spectacles for your child. 鈥?Comfort - Your child should feel comfortable in the eyeglasses. 鈥? Sturdiness - The spectacles should be sturdy enough to be handled by a child. There are many different kinds of spectacle frames, which are being made especially for children. But in spite of this, it has become difficult to decide which is the frame, which is best suited for your child. The child has to be comfortable while wearing the glasses and they should be strong and sturdy enough to stay in one piece in spite of the child handling in a rough manner. Children who wear glasses can only see objects, which are close by, or objects, which are far away. But the complexity of the eye problem will decide for how long the child will have to wear them every day. There are some children who will have to wear them only when they are studying while some others will have to wear glasses all the time and only remove them when they go to sleep. The doctor might also recommend a specific frame for the eyeglasses. But normally, the parent, child and optician will make the decision regarding the kind of frame, which has to be selected for your glasses. When you are buying a pair of glasses, make sure it has all the following qualities: 鈥?The arms of the glasses should be long so as to go around the ears. 鈥? The nose bridge should also be a snug fit. 鈥? There should be lots of space between the lenses and the eyes to ensure free flow of air. 鈥? There should be spring hinges so that the glasses do not break easily. 鈥? The lenses should be resistant to force.. Most children's spectacles have frames made of plastic so that they are more durable. But recently metal has also been used for children's eyewear. They are as durable and user friendly as their plastic counterpart. The metal frames are also known as "wires". Sports glasses have become colorful and fashionable so you no longer have to worry about convincing your child to wear them. http://www.savemoneyonglasses.com

Giuseppe Ottavio Pitoni Composer
Giuseppe Ottavio Pitoni (March 18, 1657 – February 1, 1743) was an organist and composer born in Rieti, Perugia, Italy. He became one of the leading musicians in Rome during the late Baroque era, the first half of the 18th century. Taken to Rome as an infant, he began vocal study with Pompeo Natali at the age of five and sang in the choir of San Giovanni dei Fiorentini from age eight. At Santi Apostoli he sang and studied counterpoint with Francesco Foggia, where his early compositions were performed. By age sixteen he was maestro di cappella at Santa Maria Maggiore, Monterotondo, a historic church near Rome. In 1673 as maestro for the cathedral at Assisi he began intensive study of the works of Palestrina, and in 1676 moved to the cathedral at Rieti. In 1677 he returned to Rome for a lifelong appointment as maestro di cappella at the Basilica of San Marco. In addition he held a series of prestigious positions as maestro for Holy Apostles (from 1686), at St. John Lateran (from 1708, where Palestrina had served from 1555 to 1560), and for the Cappella Giulia at St. Peter's (from 1719, immediately following Domenico Scarlatti).

Half a year later, the Taiwanese company updates the CXI lineup by adding a model that runs the 4th-gen IntelCore i3 4030U dual-core processor and supports 4k and 2K displays. Chromebox is now easier to manage and deploy, thanks to the Google Management Console, a web-based console that lets anyone control a set of Chrome OS-powered computers.

Award-winner shares enthusiasm for science
Speaking before a gymnasium packed full of students at Fairgrounds Middle School, Kurup said that while her newfound celebrity and status as a role model can be a bit tough to process, she relishes her role in encouraging young girls into the fields of science and math.
"I am definitely enthusiastic about getting young women more enthusiastic about science, especially at the middle school age when many start to see their interest wane," Kurup said.
Superintendent Mark Conrad and Discovery Education honored Kurup for her award-winning solution for harnessing solar energy for the purpose of water purification, a technology that many believe has the potential to save lives around the world.
Kurup said that she hoped her message to the students in attendance would encourage them to do what they are passionate about and encourage anyone interested to participate in this year's 3M Challenge.
"I think it is cool to come to my old school and show the kids they can compete in this really awesome competition. I am really passionate about science. By showing that, maybe I can get more students to participate," Kurup said.
Along with working towards her goal of becoming a neurologist, Kurup is still working on her water project, having just recently applied for a patent for her technology.
"I want to get it deployed in countries affected by the water crisis," Kurup said.
To aid in that goal, Kurup said she and her parents, Pradeep and Meena Kurup, are looking into starting a non-profit, aiming to in people who want to help her start using her invention to save lives in impoverished countries around the world.
"We are so proud that we are doing all these things, and Discovery is doing an awesome job to encourage kids to do this," Meena Kurup said.
Both Pradeep Kurup, who is a professor of civil engineering at the University of Massachusetts Lowell, and Meena Kurup said they regret that New Hampshire is one of the few states that does not have a state science fair for middle school students that would allow them to reach national competitions.
As a result of her invention, Deepika has received international attention from both media organizations and the scientific community.
And the highlight for her parents was when the family got to meet President Barack Obama. They said that when Obama was in New Hampshire campaigning during the last presidential race, he set up a meeting with the family after reading about Deepika in the Union Leader.
"Deepika got to spend 10 minutes with the President, and he was genuinely interested in her project," Meena Kurup said.
Felina Basche of Discovery Education said Discovery wanted to do something special for the middle school that produced Deepika and set up the science displays and demonstrations for the students, remarking: "We're here to celebrate Deepika and celebrate the teachers who helped her get here."
Fairgrounds science teacher Sue Rowse, who had Deepika as a student when she was in sixth grade, said, "She was very obviously a shining star in the class, she sparked such wonderful discussions. She is a leader."
"I think you have a student here who is a great kid, warm and friendly, and wants to make the world a better place," Conrad said.

5 Tips Luxury Marketers Can Learn From Showtime's 'Homeland'
by Carol Banks Setter on Dec 12, 12:45 PM
"Homeland," Showtime's 2012 Emmy-winning series, is a story of heroic efforts by a team of dedicated intelligence professionals to promote the interests of the United States and safeguard it against threats in an ever-changing, turbulent world. In a larger sense, it's very similar to the efforts of luxury marketers to gain mindshare of affluents. The storyline has a premier brand, the United States, whose influence is being threatened. Like luxury marketers, the team has to promote the brand while also protecting it from powerful, opposing forces in the marketplace who desire to diminish its influence.

How The Best Luxury Brands Embrace The Social Revolution
by Ranvir Gujral on Dec 5, 2:59 PM
Last time I was in New York, I found myself ducking into Saks Fifth Avenue to avoid the sirens from the President's motorcade. You have to appreciate the full retail experience of an upscale store like Saks. What really struck me on this particular visit were not the couture products or the latest high-ticket items that would require my selling a limb to purchase, but the habits of my fellow shoppers -- in particular, the number of mobile cameras being used to take pictures in every corner of the story really stood out. If I ventured a guess, I'd bet ...

African American Life in the Georgia Lowcountry
The Atlantic World and the Gullah Geechee
The essays, which range in coverage from the founding of the Georgia colony in the early 1700s through the present era, explore a range of topics, all within the larger context of the Atlantic world. Included are essays on the double-edged freedom that the American Revolution made possible to black women, the lowcountry as site of the largest gathering of African Muslims in early North America, and the coexisting worlds of Christianity and conjuring in coastal Georgia and the links (with variations) to African practices.
A number of fascinating, memorable characters emerge, among them the defiant Mustapha Shaw, who felt entitled to land on Ossabaw Island and resisted its seizure by whites only to become embroiled in struggles with other blacks; Betty, the slave woman who, in the spirit of the American Revolution, presented a "list of grievances" to her master; and S'Quash, the Arabic-speaking Muslim who arrived on one of the last legal transatlantic slavers and became a head man on a North Carolina plantation.
Published in association with the Georgia Humanities Council.

As the doomsday deadline for sequestration nears and Congress continues its partisan squabbles, both government and industry are bracing for the blow set to be delivered Jan. 3, 2013. And while the public and private sectors alike are trying to plan ahead, they have different considerations and priorities that must be weighed – a key point that could mean the difference between surviving and falling victim to more than $1 trillion in across-the-board budget cuts.
"We're seeing that agencies are already getting nervous about how to implement, and that's where we're seeing more solicitations being delayed, more decisions being postponed and modifications being made," said Alan Chvotkin, executive vice president and counsel at the Professional Services Council. "This will get worse as it gets closer to the event."
Chvotkin spoke as part of a panel at a July 10 PSC event in Arlington, Va., that addressed sequestration issues.
Agencies are buckling down on spending, which creates a ripple effect through industry, but the private sector has to handle things differently in preparing for sequestration's impact, according to Bill Roberts, partner at Wiley Rein.
"Because of the profit imperative to which government personnel are not subject, contractors simply cannot conduct business as usual and at the same time hope to remain in business," Roberts said.
So what can companies do to maximize viability as government and industry prepare for the budget ax?

One of the primary responsibilities of Congress is to pass a budget that funds the Government by October first of each year. Congress has not fulfilled this responsibility for several years. It is likely one of the reasons we are struggling to stabilize and grow our economy. State Governments, medical laboratories, State Departments of Transportation, hospitals, retirees, defense companies, and universities are dependent on U.S. Government funding and grind to a halt when there is no U.S. Government budget. The trickle down effect when there is no U.S. Government budget is that State Governments cut back because they are unsure of the funds they will receive. Universities and colleges raise their tuition because the State Government cut back funds. State Departments of Transportation cut back due to lack of funds. Teachers and police are laid off due to lack of funds. Medical research is reduced or eliminated because a lot of the funds are provided by the U.S. Government. Defense contractors are unable to hire or begin new projects when Congress has not passed a budget. A continuing resolution can keep the Government functioning, but they cannot obligate funds for new projects under a continuing resolution. As all the people working within the entities affected by Government budgets cut back due to uncertainty over employment, they have a negative effect on companies who build homes. When fewer homes are built, there is less need for appliances and furniture. This affects retail sales of big items. As salespersons are laid off, they quit buying automobiles, clothing, etc., and more salespersons are laid off. The U.S. Government budget is the base supporting road construction, Corp of Engineer projects, grants for education and education assistance, grants for police departments to buy equipment of hire more personnel, grants to State education departments to hire teachers, funds to conduct defense research and development, and purchase defense equipment. In an election year, Congress is again unlikely to pass a budget, which will adversely affect the whole country. In addition, not knowing whether sequestration will be necessary is affecting most Government contractors adversely. Congress should act.
This is an excellent article on things organizations should be doing in preparing sequestration. There has been a real lack of actionable advice on how to handle sequestration.

I wanted to introduce you to Bob Jackson, our new Northeast Manager in charge of business development for the Mental Toughness Academy.
We talk a lot about resilience in sports as the cornerstone of mental toughness. Resilience means being able to bounce back from losses and difficult experiences.
Resilience is getting back on track quickly when things don't go your way.
The 1980 US Men's Olympic hockey team is a perfect example of this resilience and was the team that the movie Miracle was based on. The team is often called the "Miracle On Ice" team.
In the interview below, Bob interviews the captain of the team, Mike Eruzione who talks about mental toughness and coming back after getting "shellacked" by the Russian team 10 days before.
There is a powerful lesson on resilience here for you.

HAVE: Castor bean
I have lots of castor beans to give away. They are leftovers from my garden from last season. I've started new ones for this season and almost all of them took off - I have too many of those already growing, too. If there is anyone interested in the already growing ones and in my vicinity (Mississauga/Brampton) - come and get them. I can mail beans with SASE.
I spent all last summer totally taken aback by this wonderful tropical looking plant growing in gardens all over the place! I was convinced it must be a tuber like a Canna! I was searching Costco just the other day to see if amoung the Dahlias, Cannas and Elephants ears, there may be some of these... Not having a name I did not have much of a jumping off place to start looking!!
Low and behold, I was being offered this plant every time I turned around, "would you like some Castor Beans?" um ah.. no, I am not that much of a bean person!!
I would love to get some of your castor beans. I am in Brampton and can pick up anywhere in Brampton, if you are Missisauga way then I can send a SASE...
With many thanks if you still have some available!
HomeMommy.. I'm not sure if you know this already but Castor Bean is NOT an edible Bean. Castor Bean is extremely "Deadly" and all it would take is one seed eaten to be fatal. Also it is not the best plant to have growing in your garden if you have small children. It does have great tropical effect ..just a word of caution.
I had read about its poisonous properties... I would not plant it in any of the gardens near the childrens play areas, and would likely remove the seed heads even though i find them rather atractive... I just love the foliage...
Thanks for showing such concern and consideration...
nyssaman beat me to it. It is deadly lethal. The way that the toxin works cannot bet reversed and there are no antidotes. In case you were wondering, ricin comes from this plant (hence all the ricin fears when someone finds a packet of white powder). castor oil also comes from this plant, but there is no ricin found in the oil.
I found that the plant develops a tap root, and can help to break up soil. I had a really bad bed, and didn't know what to plant so I grew one of these. They got taller than me (I'm 6'2) despite not being watered and in full sun in clay. The leaves were at least two feet in diameter from tip to tip. The main 'trunk' which got to at least 2 inches in diameter stayed standing through winter. When I finally got around to removing it a few weeks ago, I found these thick roots (sorta like a dahlia tuber on steroids lol). Really easy to grow. The most common variety I've seen around are the red leafed ones, but I've heard the green variety will grow bigger. The green ones have black seeds, but the red ones have brown seeds with markings on them.
I have some caster bean seeds (red, based on their brown seeds with markings, as described above) and a couple seedlings. The seeds were given to me a few years or so ago, but seem to be ok, 2 out of the 3 seeds I first planted have sprouted into large seedlings and I'm seeing some signs of activity in the pots for the second batch.

2-Deoxy-D-glucose is a glucose molecule which has the 2-hydroxyl group replaced by hydrogen, so that it cannot undergo further glycolysis. As such, it acts to competitively inhibit the production of glucose-6-PO4 from glucose at the phosphoglucoisomerase level.[2] In most cells, glucose hexokinase phosphorylates 2-deoxyglucose, trapping the product 2-deoxyglucose-6-phosphate intracellularly (with exception of liver and kidney)[citation needed]; thus, labeled forms of 2-deoxyglucose serve as a good marker for tissue glucose uptake and hexokinase activity. Many cancers have elevated glucose uptake and hexokinase levels. 2-Deoxyglucose labeled with tritium or carbon-14 has been a popular ligand for laboratory research in animal models, where distribution is assessed by tissue-slicing followed by autoradiography, sometimes in tandem with either conventional or electron microscopy.
2-DG is uptaken by the glucose transporters of the cell. Therefore, cells with higher glucose uptake, for example tumor cells, have also a higher uptake of 2-DG. Since 2-DG hampers cell growth, its use as a tumor therapeutic has been suggested, and in fact, 2-DG is in clinical trials [3] A recent clinical trial showed 2-DG can be tolerated at a dose of 63 mg/kg/day, however the observed cardiac side-effects (prolongation of the Q-T interval) at this dose and the fact that a majority of patients' (66%) cancer progressed casts doubt on the feasibility of this reagent for further clinical use.[4] However, it is not completely clear how 2-DG inhibits cell growth. The fact that glycolysis is inhibited by 2-DG, seems not to be sufficient to explain why 2-DG treated cells stop growing [5]
Clinicians have noted that 2-DG is metabolised in the pentose phosphate pathway in red blood cells at least, although the significance of this for other cell types and for cancer treatment in general is unclear.[6]
Work on the ketogenic diet as a treatment for epilepsy have investigated the role of glycolysis in the disease. 2-Deoxyglucose has been proposed by Garriga-Canut et al. as a mimic for the ketogenic diet, and shows great promise as a new anti-epileptic drug.[7] The authors suggest that 2-DG works, in part, by increasing the expression of Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), Nerve growth factor (NGF), Arc (protein) (ARC), and Basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2).[8] Such uses are complicated by the fact that 2-deoxyglucose does have some toxicity.
2-DG has been used as a targeted optical imaging agent for fluorescent in vivo imaging.[9][10] In clinical medical imaging (PET scanning), fluorodeoxyglucose is used, where one of the 2-hydrogens of 2-deoxy-D-glucose is replaced with the positron-emitting isotope fluorine-18, which emits paired gamma rays, allowing distribution of the tracer to be imaged by external gamma camera(s). This is increasingly done in tandem with a CT function which is part of the same PET/CT machine, to allow better localization of small-volume tissue glucose-uptake differences.

Basket of Gold
I have always read this is a very easy plant to grow. I have tried to winter sow it but nothing! Whats the deal? Should I spring sow or summer sow and hold it in a pot til next year? How do you sow it for success? Thanks
Perennial Alyssum? Sow it the regular way. Sow it in the summer. Winter sow it. All of the above. It's very easy to harvest seeds and easy to grow from seed. I posted a picture on winter sowing on FB. It likes drought conditions with full sun. Since it's basically a woody plant, I would imagine seedlings need to be kept moist but no prolonged wet feet. After they are established, they are off to the races. Also look for volunteer seedlings that can be potted up and transplanted in the fall. WHEW!
I've WSed this plant successfully too. I am sorry I don't keep great records, so I can't tell you when it germinated but I remember that I was impressed enough to WS it two years in a row and now have a whole pathway lined with it at the edge - love it.
If you have more seeds, maybe sow again?
I have WS basket of gold several times over the past 9 years.
3 different times I sowed them in Jan and February and the containers germinated mid to late April
Last year I didn't decide to sow them until 4/8 and they germinated 4/28
This year I sowed them 4/3 and they germinated 4/15.
Planted them in several different locations last year, full sun, part sun, even mostly shade and they did very well, they are blooming this year.
All I've ever done with them is surface sow the seeds, give them a very light sprinkle of soil to cover and some I never sprinkled any soil on them and they all germinated well.
I use miracle grow potting mix, not sure if that makes any difference though.

Doris Duke Theatre
About the Film:
Directed by Charlie Chaplin. 1952. USA. 137 mins.
Chaplin's Limelight is a glimmering homage to what was, a proud look at a bygone entertainment era and a bittersweet tale of an artist passing the torch to a new generation. Chaplin portrays Calvero (the "Tramp Comedian" per an old theatrical poster in his room), who rescues a distraught ballerina (Claire Bloom) from suicide and mentors her to success. Among the film's comedy highlights is a musical routine that's anything but routine in the hands of legends Chaplin and stone-faced Buster Keaton. The extraordinary score by Chaplin, Raymond Rasch and Larry Russell earned the screen legend his only competitive Oscar®.—MK2 & Warner Bros.

While those of you with kids might have gone to see the Smurfs movie, I'm assuming the rest of you haven't. From what I've heard, you aren't missing much if you haven't seen it, but I can't talk from first-hand experience because I haven't gone either. Regardless of what you think of the new movie, it's always nice to look back at the things that made The Smurfs so great in the first place.
For half a second, I thought Papa Smurf was copping a feel. And now I'm disappointed. And disturbed that I'm disappointed. Internet, what have you done to me?

We're very impressed with this stove. I'd never cooked with gas before, and now I can see what the big deal is. The two ovens are great. We were worried that we'd be on our hands and knees all the time because the lower oven is so low, but it turns out that we use the upper oven constantly. It's tall enough for a Pyrex dish full of food, which is all we usually need. The lower oven is convection, which has been fun to try to figure out. The main point we have learned so far is that it makes things crispier, and does it much faster. The chocolate-chip cookies we made when we first installed it were amazing. At first, we didn't know what to make of the teeny little griddle in the middle -- it seemed stupid. We have a ton of kids and usually use a giant griddle. But we find that we're using this small one all the time. Three more pancakes? No problem. One thing we haven't run into yet that will irk me when we do is that the stove supposedly has a gas cut-off when the electricity is out, which happens here all too often. I'd prefer that we could continue to use the gas stovetop when the power is out -- it could make the difference between having to flee the house and not having to do so. We'd had a glass-topped electric range before, which was super-easy to clean, and were worried that this would be a pain. But the grates lift out nicely and it wipes up very easily.

I bought this unit 4 months ago, at first I loved this range, mostly used the upper oven for smaller types of cooking, until I made a turkey, and some other larger foods needed to use the larger convection oven, after cooking for a while, the lower oven's heat goes straight up to the upper doors glass window, the heat from the lower oven generates moisture inside the upper oven window, and you can not wipe it clean, it makes streaks inside the window pane, I called Kitchen Aid direct, and they said, sorry, that's a cosmetic issue, of which I said, no way, there should be no reason to spend over 2 thousand dollars on a new range, for this to happen, no range is designed to create moisture INSIDE the upper ovens window pane, I even bought a 350 dollar, 5 year extended warranty and they still denied me a claim for this, I have never been treated this way from not being satisfied, and I will never buy a Kitchen Aid appliance ever again, you can find other complaints with this at other sites, just look.

Everything I wanted!
By Mimi 1
from Undisclosed
I searched for the best range I could find and this one had everything I wanted. Love the gas cooktop, and electric ovens. All reviews were accurate. Love it. It is perfect and looks great.
Love the top oven!
By Dean88
from Des Moines, IA, United States
I am a paraplegic and we purchased this oven with hopes of making it easier for me to get things in and out. The top oven is so nice for me... No having to lean way over and lose balance. It's a perfect size and heats up quicker. We save the big oven just for those bigger tasks or when we are working on two things at once. It could be easier to clean on the top, but all in all we are very satisfied.

By gdwildcat01
from Clay, NY, United States
I love to cook, and I absolutely love the precision of the gas range and the ability of the convection electric oven. This works amazingly well, and although I may not use the griddle in the middle too much, it provides such great space on the range so my pots and pans are not on top of each other when cooking!
My wife is smiling big about the stove. Happy wife happy life.

I've used the stove quit a bit. Love the griddle, cooks eggs perfectly. The convection oven was the best results I've gotten so far with baking.
Great Oven
By sherra
from Virginia, United States
I thought I cooked all the time but I really cook all the time now. This is a dream come true gas top with electric bottom. I will never be without this stove no matter where I live. If I ever move this will be a great selling point but I would certainly have another one just like it.
Beautiful inside & out
By mgabay69
from Chandler, AZ, United States
After a few adjustments, the temperatures work great. The only drawback is how soft the metal is on the face and stove-top. Scratches SO easily, much easier than any other stainless steel appliance I have. And I wish the timer would beep more than once. If I'm out of the room and miss it, I don't know.
This is a great range!
By Rick0320
from Erie, PA, United States
We are very happy we purchased this range! The dual fuel is wonderful, the best of both worlds. The double oven is perfect for out large family gatherings. Still learning how to use the convection feature, it does work very well.
Absolutely love it!
By Moji
from Prairie Village, KS, United States
I had purchased a home that had a gas stove. I had never cooked with gas before so I was looking forward to trying it. After several months of using the gas stove I came to the conclusion that cooking with a gas cooktop was great but I did not care for the gas oven. The temp fluctuated too much and my tried-and-true recipes just weren't coming out the same. So I went looking for a better option. There are several things that I love about the ovens. The smaller oven is the one I use the most. It heats up very quickly (about 5 minutes to heat to 350 degrees); it will accommodate most of my dishes; it maintains the set temp better than gas. I am new to cooking in a convection oven, which the larger oven is, but I have really enjoyed the convection cooking so far. I made baked fries in the convection and they came out better than they ever have in a standard oven. The automatic conversion to convection is really helpful too, as I have no idea how to adjust a recipe for a convection oven. I have not had the opportunity to use the large 5th burner yet, but I think it will work well with a stovetop smoker I have. I have only had use of this oven for about 2 weeks so far, but I am enjoying every minute of cooking with it!

Location was great and bed was clean and comfortable.
Paid for a room with whirlpool, water went from brown to green. So lovely! Complained to front desk and they pretended that they didn't know about it, when there where clear signs of maintenance in the room. I was just told that I had already paid and that I was good to go. Also didn't appreciate the meddling Indian guy at front desk, asking me where I work and what I was doing there, where I was coming from. Horrible. Looks outdated from outside. Quite loud.
On the bottom floor closest to the entry door, was pretty loud. Should have asked for room move options. The sink is not in the bathroom. The HVAC system looks pretty old and was kinda loud. Other than that, a typical inexpensive hotel room. Wasn't going for a luxury stay, just a place to crash.
Clean, good breakfast, very helpful staff
Nice room at an excellent rate
Paid more for other places in the vicinity that were not nearly as nice as the Zen
What an ADORABLE place! From the courtyard with the azaleas, camelias and cyclamens in bloom, the rooms with the nice patio, and the hospitality from the staff, this place is a total winner! We were extremely impressed with comfortable beds too!
Walls are pretty thin. Bring earplugs to sleep and you'll be fine. Also, on the breakfast, not enough protein or options to choose from.
Very clean and well appointed rooms, very convenient and quiet on the weekend.
Not sure how the construction adjacent would effect the noise level, but its a little scary when you pull up. Could use a plug in the bathroom and some tea bags. Breakfast could have a few more items.
It is across the street from the Stanford Shopping Center. A very upmarket, beautifully laid out center with Bloomies, Nieman Marcus, lots of restaurants and cafes.
breakfast is closing at 9:00am sharp. On Sunday went down to lobby at 9:25am and breakfast was all gone. No breakfast after 9:00am even on Sunday..
location, space, staff
the smell in the room
The beds are SUPER comfortable; the location was convenient to our destination.
A little Cramped in the room (3 people); Parking difficult with the large number of TRUCKS parked in parking lot - seems like it gets a Big commuter business.
Nice/helpful staff, comfortable bed, pretty clean.
Crappy hairdryer, broken air conditioner, too-small shower curtain--all of the little touches that make a hotel nice were completely missing. Would not stay here again.
It was ok for one night stay. Free breakfast was served until 10, which is nice.
Their pillows were are too high for me. I could not get much sleep!! :(
the rooms where spacious.
no jacuzzi
It was clean.
Very very old facility. Uncomfortable. Cheap as hell. Three little tiny pillows. Couldn't even get a big pillow. They claim to have breakfast but it's a few muffins and some cereal. No plastic plates or silverware. And you can't take anything back to your room. Overall it was just a terrible experience.
Beautiful setting and gardens. Two highly-rated restaurants on premises. Heated pool and lovely pool setting. Friendly staff; immediate response to requests. Spacious room; useful mini-kitchen with prep counter, sink, refrigerator, and utensils. Comfortable bed. Ample room lighting. Convenient work desk and sitting table in room.
Mix of contemporary and baroque furnishings is odd. No microwave in room. No hot tub/jacuzzi at pool. No fresh (refrigerated) half-and-half available for the coffee in the lobby.
The hotel employee was nice and clean and the breakfast was good.
Pleasant room, lobby, breakfast area, breakfast. Great, attentive, helpful staff.
Pool, clean landscape and breakfast
AC in room smelled terrible, noisy doors banging at 6am and building construction
Free breakfast in the morning along with the breakfast hours.
Funny smell in the elevator and hallways.

Great MedleyWe used this candy for a wedding candy buffet. It was a huge hit!!!
- 3/23/2013
SWEDISH FISH areWe were looking for inspiration for our school's website, and found it at CandyStore.com. We were thrilled to see that Swedish Fish Aqua Life included an orange seahorse, as that is our school mascot! We ordered 5lbs. of the Aqua Life. It was so easy to order and the package arrived very promptly! To our delight, the sea creatures were absolutely beautiful. We went right down to our waterfront and photographed the beautiful candies in the late afternoon sun on our dock. They were stunning! The photo is now featured on the homepage of our website. We couldn't be more thrilled - thank you, CandyStore.com! (oh, and they are delicious, too!) We will use the rest of the gummies as prizes and treats for our students.

Tree Swing Cartoon Parodies
PROTIP: Press 'i' to view the image gallery, 'v' to view the video gallery, or 'r' to view a random entry.
The Tree Swing Cartoon Parodies, also known as "What The Customer Really Needed" (Japanese: 顧客が本当に必要だったもの), are a series of multi-pane, exploitable webcomics based on a satirical cartoon about building a tree swing through division of labor in corporate environment. Since its first appearance in the early 2000s, the cartoon has inspired dozens of parodies poking fun at various failures in product development and the culture of corporate bureaucracy in general, in similar vein to All Right Gentlemen and Corporate Logic.
The original cartoon made its first online appearance on September 9th, 2003 in an English-language blog post titled "Typical Project Life,"[1] which metaphorically explains various perception gaps that often arise in software development projects through the simple task of building a tree swing. In the following year, a Japanese translated version of the cartoon titled "This is How IT Projects Really Work" was posted via Dashi Blog on February 22nd, 2004.[2]
The "tree swing" cartoon has been used to explain or satirize perceived discrepancies in IT project management as early as the 1970s, with its earliest known iteration published in the March 1973 issue of University of London Computer Center Newsletter (shown below, left). In 1975, the same illustration (shown below, right) was cited in the book The Oregon Experiment[3] written by Christopher Alexander[4], an architect known as the founder of "Pattern Language". More information about the pre-Internet history of "tree swing" cartoons can be found on the career advice blog BusinessBalls.[5]
Between 2004 and 2006, the cartoon continued to spread across the international blogosphere, eventually leading to the launch of The Project Cartoon, a website dedicated to curating parodies and translated variations of the original cartoon, in 2006.[6] Meanwhile on the Japanese web, the cartoon gained much recognition under the name "What The Customer Really Needed" (dubbed after the caption from the last panel) and began appearing on imageboard communities like Futaba Channel (2chan), including a compilation of parody instances uploaded in July 2008.[7] In addition, an article for the "Tree Swing" cartoon was submitted to Nico Nico Douga's encyclopedia in September 2010.[8]

Family friendly house close to the beach
We have stayed here 2 years in a row and love this house! It's a 5 minute walk to the beach which is VERY important with small kids. It's bright and airy and clean. There is plenty of room for 2 smaller families or 1 big family. The steps up the stairs are a little steep but we have still managed it with the young kids and senior citizens.
Cute and cozy 5 bedroom house. North beach haven
We really had great time and would recommend. Great family place.
Amazing Rental House on LBI
the House is Lovely and the location is amazing... my family and I spent one week at this Rental house. the house is ocean-front with a very nice and beautiful view of the ocean from both living-rooms and the decks. the house is beautiful and spacious. the view from Master bedroom window is unforgettable. the house is great for multifamily vacations. the beach was very beautiful and clean. the owner is a very nice gentleman and easy to do business with. we had a great time and I believe I found my favorite vacation house. We will definitely go back.

NYU Langone Medical Center and the Hassenfeld family unveiled a $50 million gift October 2 that will create a comprehensive pediatric hospital at NYU Langone Medical Center. The $50 million gift from the Hassenfeld family, led by longtime NYU Langone Medical Center trustee Sylvia Hassenfeld, spans three generations and underscores the family's belief in both giving back and to children.
"Their extraordinary gift to create the Hassenfeld Pediatric Center begins a new era of children's health care in New York and helps ensure bright futures for countless children, our most precious patients, and their families," said Robert I. Grossman, MD, dean and CEO of NYU Langone Medical Center.
The announcement was made during a festive celebration at the Intrepid Sea, Air, & Space Museum that was attended by more than 1,000 children, parents, and grandparents, including Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Barbara Walters, who served as the mistress of ceremonies at the family-friendly event.
The gift will help create the Hassenfeld Pediatric Center, a new 160,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art pediatric hospital on the Medical Center's main campus on the east side of Manhattan. Integral to the design of the pediatric hospital will be all private rooms, making it the only pediatric inpatient facility in Manhattan to have this feature. Private rooms increase patient safety by decreasing exposure to infections, as well as serve to provide a private, supportive environment for the patients and their families. In addition, the new Hassenfeld Pediatric Center will boast:
- A separate, dedicated Hassenfeld Pediatric Center entrance on 34th Street and 1st Avenue, featuring a child-friendly lobby - Child-friendly pre-operative unit consisting of private, pre-op preparation and recovery bays, with space for family at the bedside, along with pediatric ORs, a catheterization lab, and two procedure rooms - Dedicated acute pediatric inpatient and pediatric critical care units where each of the 68 private rooms will have their own en suite bathrooms, as well as include a "family zone" featuring a sleep-in couch, storage, and Web access - A Family Center for orientation activities for patients, space for child-life activities and performances, as well as support, education, and respite services for families
The facility will be located within the new Helen L. and Martin S. Kimmel Pavilion, scheduled to open in late 2017.
