Miley shares steamy kiss with TV co-star
MILEY Cyrus shows off her cleavage in a lowcut playsuit as she shares a steamy smooch with her co-star in US comedy Two And A Half Men.
The 19-year-old actress made the first of two guest appearances on the show last night - and she didn't waste time wooing two of the main characters.
First Ashton Kutcher's character Walden takes a shine to Miley's Missi.
But was his younger housemate Jake - played by Angus T Jones - who successfully seduced the blonde bombshell, pouncing as they chatted on the beach.
The romance is shortlived, though, and at the end of the episode Miley announces she's returning home to reunite with her ex-boyfriend.
It was Miley's first TV appearance since she quit Hannah Montana - the show that made her famous - four years ago.
And she looked all grown up, sporting a series of skimpy outfits, including a skintight pink boobtube and a barely-there bikini.
She was happy to kiss on camera, but Miley recently revealed she has turned down raunchy roles out of respect for her fiance Liam Hemsworth.
She said: "I've turned down scripts, because I felt like it was things that not only make me feel uncomfortable, but I don't think any career is worth stressing out the person that you love the most or making them feel hurt. So, we both give each other boundaries."

1. | michigan tech | ||
Engineering school Located in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Students with the brains of MIT students but because of a poor guy/girl ratio they kill off all the smart cells with massive amounts of alochol. "yeah i went to michigan tech once, i cant remember what happened"
"Michigan Technological University, out drinking you since 1885" |
2. | Michigan Tech | ||
Where it's hard to get good grades,
but even harder to get a girlfriend. Michigan Tech's new ratio is 4 to 1? Screw it, I've got math to do...
3. | Michigan Tech | ||
Where the men are men and so are the women. "At Michigan Tech, women need the extra girth and facial hair to keep warm."
4. | Michigan Tech | ||
The place where, as a female, people always assume there are available men because of the 4:1 ratio of males to females. What they fail to realize however is the fact that the "Odds are Good but the Goods are ODD". The average male at michigan tech could be seen walking across campus with animals living in their beards or in deep discussion about the newest video game. Although there are good guys available, they are difficult to find as they came to college with a long distance relationship already at hand and walk around in misery. Does distance really make the heart grow fonder? "Oh how are you still single! There are lots of men up there arent there? It is an engineering school!"
"Oh but its Michigan Tech, where the odds are good but the goods really are odd" |

Farm-City Week ended Tuesday with the annual Farm-City Banquet, held at Richmond Community College's Cole Auditorium in Hamlet. North Carolina Agricultural Commissioner Steve Troxler was the keynote speaker.
Troxler said, "I get a lot of requests to speak at Farm-City Week events and I'm always grateful that communities are taking the time to recognize the connection between the farm and the fork, and how each of us, whether we farm or not, has a part in our state's agricultural success.
"That is probably even truer today, especially as we are seeing so much growth and interest in buying locally grown fruits, vegetables, meats and other food products," he said.
Troxler made the point that, "Agriculture and agribusiness in this state is a nearly $70 billion industry. It is our leading industry and employs nearly a fifth of our workforce."
Agriculture in North Carolina brings in three times as much revenue as the state's number two industry, the military, according to GIS Specialist Jamie Lambeth, who attended the event.
"Troxler also shared how our state has experienced the disappearance of almost one million acres of farmland since the beginning of the century," said Lambeth, "and how farmers will have to continue to produce more goods with fewer resources."
According to Lambeth, approximately 150 people attended the event. RCC President Dale McInnis spoke about RCC's new poultry science program, which provides students who wish to major in Poultry Science with a path to transfer from RCC to North Carolina State University as a junior.
While the audience shared a meal catered by Jordan's Bar-B-Q, entertainment was provided by The Thickety Creek Bluegrass Band.
Lambeth then recognized the sponsors, including Gold Leaf Farms, FirstHealth Richmond Memorial Hospital, Pee Dee Electric Cooperative, Richmond County Farm Bureau, Southeast Farm Equipment, Carolina Farm Credit and Perdue Farms. Lambeth also thanked the Farm-City Week Planning Committee for their efforts.
Doug Carter, FFA advisor at Richmond Senior High School was in attendance, along with one of this students Cassy Kottwitz. Kottwitz spoke about the importance of agriculture to her and expressed her appreciation for their new state-of-the-art greenhouse at the high school.
A new item was added to the agenda this year; a baked goods auction was held to raise money for the Richmond Senior High's FFA club, or Future Farmers of America. Iron Horse Auction Company donated its services to conduct the auction. Some of the baked goods sold for as much as $350.
"Tom McInnis led the auction which generated over $2,100 for the FFA club," said Lambeth. "McInnis reminded the audience of the importance of supporting these students and that these students are the future leaders of our county and our state. Iron Horse Auction and McInnis did a wonderful job and the auction was a huge success."
Richmond County Farm Service Agency Director Amy Yaklin, who was also on the Farm-City Week Planning Committee, said she felt the whole week was a success.
"All of our Farm City Week events this year turned out even better than expected," said Yaklin. "The parade was a huge success and I didn't hear one negative comment about it. The luncheon was also great. Everyone enjoyed the fellowship at this event. We enjoyed way too much great food, which is a tribute to our cooks and to our farmers who in essence provide all of our food.
"I loved the banquet. The band, Thickety Creek was really good and the meal was too. The whole week was really great. A lot of work by a lot of people go in to making the Farm City Week Events come together. I am not only thankful for all my personal blessings this year but I am also thankful to work with all these great folks who help pull this event off. It takes a lot, but it is certainly worth it. To me, this is just a small way to say thanks and to honor those who work so hard to keep us fed," Yaklin said.

SUNY New Paltz's solar car team prepares to compete in its biggest race. As YNN's Venise Toussaint tells us, the team is excited and ready to bring home the gold.
HUDSON VALLEY, N.Y. -- SUNY New Paltz's "Sun Hawk" shines at the Formula Sun Grand Prix, as the solar team gears up for the American Solar Challenge. "It was a lot of hard work. I think everybody is at ease now that we're actually going around the track. We put a lot of effort into this car," said the team's advisor, Mike Otis.
The six member New Paltz Solar Team is one of the smallest set to compete. In order to be considered the group had to build this complex car which runs completely on solar energy. "I'm looking at the mold, the frame, the car and I'm like wow, I can't believe me and my friends actually built this car ourselves," said team member Colin Morrell.
The American Solar Challenge is the biggest solar race in the country, with teams from 18 colleges and universities competing. The race spans for eight days from Rochester, N.Y. to St. Paul, Minn.
"I'm really excited. All of us have been spending every single day, not even exaggerating, 22 to 23 hours a day the last four days. We probably slept maybe one to two hours a night," added Julian De La Cruz.
Before the team hits the big track, it had to compete in the Grand Prix qualifying race at the Monticello Motor Club, where the car is judged on safety and road worthiness.
"We're all glad to be here, throughout all the pain last week, it hurt, but now it's finally paying off," Morrell said.
The American Solar Challenge kicks off on Saturday.

You talked me into it Carla. I'm curious to find out what this story is all about too. Have not seen the movie, nor do I know very much about the plot. I just reserved it from my library. I am #364 of 16 copies [:-( .... I'll give you my report on it .... in about a year and a half (kidding). I am currently #12 of 17 "holds" on The Spellman Files and figure I should have it in about a week or two. By the time I finish it Hunger Games should be getting close to being available.

Curiously, a poster with a publicity still of beleaugered John Travolta, started popping up on telephone poles around WeHo bright-and-early at the crack-of-dawn.
The crudely-crafted sign was making a pitch for male massage.
And, one of the gossip tabloids at the supermarket check-out is currently running a feature on Travolta's alleged kinky.
According to the rag, the Saturday Night Fever star is a cross-dresser, too!
Has the whole fiasco become a National joke?

Sep 4, 201291If you've been on board with the game up to this point, Episode 3 will fail to disappoint. It's another excellent entry in what is easily shaping up to be Telltale's best work yet, and there's no reason to stop playing the series now.
Oct 27, 201290In this latest installment of the series you get a story that's even darker than before. A lot of hard moral dilemmas are thrown at you, and you see the group you've come to know as a family falling apart. This episode also brings more puzzle elements than before, making it feel more like a traditional adventure game than an interactive graphic novel.
Sep 27, 201290Now that Telltale has captured my attention with this entry, they've got the difficult task of keeping it. This episode is so full of smart character moments and interactions it seems impossible for them to continue it any further, but we'll just have to see what they have in store for us next. Of course it's a lot of pressure to keep the momentum going, but the series is starting to look more cohesive and it feels like it's actually going somewhere, which I appreciate after the second episode felt so aimless and one-off. For the first time since it started, though, I'm looking forward to the next entry in this series, and can't wait to see what happens.
Sep 5, 201285After two successful episodes, you truly start to care for Lee and Clementine. The events of Long Road Ahead are therefore hard to process but make an even greater impact than any of the other episodes. This is without a doubt the best episode so far!

Ty Watson, Managing Director of 3v Sport is delighted with the arrangements. "We are very pleased to have agreed the sponsorship with the Midlands Rugby League" he said. "We are big supporters of Rugby League and of course the game in the Midlands and it is a perfect platform for us to promote 3v Sport to the Rugby League clubs in the region.

"We are very pleased to welcome 3v Sport on board as sponsors" said Tim Fellows, Chairperson of the Midlands Rugby League.

Obama Deals, Feels Pressure on Stimulus
President Obama is really starting to feel the heat on the bogus economic projections he used to sell the "stimulus" package and budget to Americans, and he's also used cabinet-level executive branch officials to bite back at political critics.
John Yoo: President Can Ignore Law
Bush-era Justice Department Attorney John Yoo is mad that various inspectors general have concluded that his legal memoranda on Bush-era warrantless eavesdropping have "serious factual and legal flaws."
CIA Lies and Other Redundancies
Seven Democratic members of Congress recently penned a strong letter to CIA Director Leon Panetta asking him to apologize for claiming back in May that the CIA didn't lie to Congress. Panetta had written in May: "Let me be clear: It is not our policy or practice to mislead Congress. That is against our laws and values." Panetta's claim was false. Last week, Panetta informed House Intelligence Committee members for the first time of an intelligence program that had existed since 2001.
Hastings' Amendment Attack on First Amendment
The House of Representatives passed a measure that is a direct attack on the First Amendment on June 25 by a vote of 389-22. Within the $671 billion fiscal 2010 Defense Authorization bill (H.R. 2647) is a proposal to ban the U.S. military from recruiting or retaining "a person associated or affiliated with a group associated with hate-related violence against groups or persons or the United States Government, as determined by the Attorney General."
Sarah Palin's Swan Song?
Sarah Palin's July 3 resignation from the Alaska governorship created a wave of publicity and hand-wringing among liberals in the major media who counseled that Palin was politically finished with the resignation. Of course, these are the same liberals who said she was finished anyway after the November presidential election.
Franken Gives Democrats Filibuster-Proof Vote
It's not funny, but former Saturday Night Live comedian Al Franken is officially the new senator from Minnesota. Franken was recently declared the winner in the long-contested Senate race by a mere 312 votes over incumbent liberal Republican Norman Coleman. Franken will become the 60th Democrat in the United States Senate, which will give congressional Democrats a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate.

Since he was asking about things that had already happened back in February, George Stephanopoulos might as well have asked White House adviser David Axelrod on This Week if he thought New Hampshire Republican Judd Gregg would withdraw his name from consideration as Obama's secretary of commerce.
Obama: Fed "Performed Better Than Most Other Regulators"
President Barack Obama praised the efforts of the Federal Reserve Bank during his press conference June 23, telling reporters, "I think that the Fed probably performed better than most other regulators prior to the crisis taking place," adding that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke "has performed very well."
Congress Passes a Mingle of More War and Waste
If anyone ever wanted proof of columnist Joe Sobran's dictum that "war is just one more big government program," they need look no further than the supplemental appropriations H.R. 2346 conference report awaiting President Obama's signature.
The Accelerating Push to Criminalize the Right
The New American recently warned that Americans who oppose policies emanating from Washington are being tarred as right-wing extremists and even potential terrorists by the Obama administration's Department of Homeland Security as well as by the New York Times and other liberal media organs. This push to demonize and even criminalize political dissent appears to be accelerating.

This past week I've been teaching classes on blogging and becoming web savvy with your marketing. And the questions students asked reminded me of some of the top mistakes bloggers make with their blogs, especially if you're new to blogging and haven't really cracked the code of increasing traffic enough to bring in new clients.
After blogging for years, and writing well in excess of 1,000 posts, I have made most of the mistakes top bloggers make – numerous times. And whether you are new to blogging or have done it for years, you can learn from these mistakes, and change the way you approach your own blog.
Mistake #1 You don't post enough
How often do you post? If you haven't seen the results yet, chances are you're not blogging enough. If you're not posting at least once per week at the bare minimum, you're probably losing momentum. Frequency is what keeps people interested, and keeps them coming back. The more you post, the more traffic you'll see. Commit to your frequency, and make sure you do it every week.
Mistake #2 You don't write to engage your reader
After you've written a post, step back and read it one more time. Will people have a reason to comment on it? Did you ask questions? Is there something a little controversial? If not, go back and add a sentence or two that gives people a reason to comment. I love to ask questions along the way, and ask people what their opinions are. Make sure they have a reason to connect with you. [Read more...]

For Teens
Home > Wellness & Safety > For Teens > Are There Healthy Fast-Food Options?
I want to eat healthy but my family's always in a rush, so we stop at fast-food places a lot. What are some healthier choices from places like McDonald's? - Caitlin*
Fast-food places can be confusing health-wise. You'd think chicken would be a better choice than beef — but at McDonald's the chicken sandwich has more fat and calories than a regular hamburger! Luckily, most fast-food places post nutrition facts on their websites so you can see what's in their food before you go. Look for foods that are low in fat, calories, sugar, and sodium — and high in fiber, vitamins, calcium, and iron.
If you don't have the nutrition facts, here's what to do: Choose smaller grilled items over fried foods. Order a side salad instead of fries (go easy on the dressing). Watch out for extras like bacon, cheese, and mayo. And choose water or skim milk to drink.

As for the stock and the barrel, the came off an old pump action bb gun, but those were just to make it cooler.
The trigger is a blow gun, and the laser sight is optional.
The most important part of this is the VORTEC BLOCK, which itself takes some time to make.

Sri Lanka to Plans to Offer Oil Blocks for Joint Study
From Lanka Business
Sri Lanka is planning to offer up to 11 off-shore oil blocks on production sharing deals in a bidding round that will close around September and others where less data is available for joint study, a media report said.
The blocks that are to be offered on production sharing agreements are on Sri Lanka's Mannar basin, to the east and northeast of the island.
A further five blocks are located around the northern tip of the island, in the Cauvery Basin, in a strip of sea separating the island from India, where oil has already been found on the Indian side.
The production sharing agreement in deeper waters will have more incentives for developers.
"But at the same time, we are introducing the concept of joint study acreage, for which we have earmarked certain very large areas in offshore Sri Lanka in which there is no data at all and very little knowledge of subsurface conditions," the Daily Mirror quoted Wikramasuriya as saying.
"It's very deep, so production potential is in the future. Those we want to bring to the market as joint study blocks where we encourage investment in research, data acquisition, information gathering and study jointly with the government."
Wickramasuriya said applications will be considered on prior experience in similar areas, reputation and financial capability.
If the company finds enough data to proceed, it can negotiate a production sharing contract or if the areas is blocked up and offered for bidding it will have the right of first refusal.
The larger areas proposed for joint study curves around the south and east of the island in a map posted on the petroleum secretariat.

There are genuinely attractive Kickstarters, there are joke Kickstarters, and then there are Kickstarters like this, which somehow manages to be both at once.
Cards Against Humanity was once a Kickstarter asking for $4000. It's since made over $12 million in revenue. Here's a great writeup on how the game, and its creators, got there.
Final Fantasy Versus XIII sometimes feels like it's been in development forever. So let's pretend that it has. And that "forever" is really "since 1997".
If it wasn't obvious at its launch in November, then this past week should have made it clear: The Wii U is functionally irrelevant to sports video games, and there is no reason for any sports fan to buy the console. The only question now is how much that will really matter to the fate of the machine.

2009 Choice Outstanding Academic Title
Is job insecurity the new norm? With fewer and fewer people working in steady, long-term positions for one employer, has the dream of a secure job with full benefits and a decent salary become just that—a dream?
In Nice Work If You Can Get It, Andrew Ross surveys the new topography of the global workplace and finds an emerging pattern of labor instability and uneven development on a massive scale. Combining detailed case studies with lucid analysis and graphic prose, he looks at what the new landscape of contingent employment means for workers across national, class, and racial lines—from the emerging "creative class" of high-wage professionals to the multitudes of temporary, migrant, or low-wage workers. Developing the idea of "precarious livelihoods" to describe this new world of work and life, Ross explores what it means in developed nations—comparing the creative industry policies of the United States, United Kingdom, and European Union, as well as developing countries—by examining the quickfire transformation of China's labor market. He also responds to the challenge of sustainability, assessing the promise of "green jobs" through restorative alliances between labor advocates and environmentalists.
Ross argues that regardless of one's views on labor rights, globalization, and quality of life, this new precarious and "indefinite life,&" and the pitfalls and opportunities that accompany it is likely here to stay and must be addressed in a systematic way. A more equitable kind of knowledge society emerges in these pages—less skewed toward flexploitation and the speculative beneficiaries of intellectual property, and more in tune with ideals and practices that are fair, just, and renewable.
Andrew Ross is Professor of American Studies in the Department of Social and Cultural Analysis at New York University. He is the author and editor of numerous books, including No-Collar, Fast Boat to China, No Respect, Strange Weather, and, from NYU Press, Anti-Americanism and Real Love.
"Economic liberalization, [Ross] demonstrates, has opened up a frenetic global traffic in jobs and migrants, uprooting people in a manner both useful and troubling to the managers of capital. In short, more people are available to exploit, but they are also harder to control. . . . A thorough and thoughtful study of global professional insecurity."
"With admirable timing, [Ross] examines a global workplace infrastructure that's as shaky as the economy would indicate. . . . Though far from uplifting, this is a bold, pointed look at reality as it is, a far more valuable commodity."
"According to Ross, job insecurity became commonplace long before the current financial debacle. As economies shifted from industry to information, the benefits and securities of the Keynesian era quietly gave way to a workforce of temps, freelancers, adjuncts, and migrants. Ross finds that city fathers are more interested in Olympic bids and stadium projects than in sustainable employment, while corporations spend more on 'social responsibility' public-relations campaigns than on addressing worker complaints, and activists are too focussed on narrow concerns to find common cause with natural allies."
"Illuminating. . . . Who knows what will be on the table when the damage of the global crisis is told? At the very least, one may hope for a return to security, sensible financial regulation, and a renewed interest in economic equity. Other worlds are possible, and with luck thinkers like Ross can point the way to imagining them more fully."
"This excellent and, in places, brilliant book should be read by anyone interested in a timely and astute analysis of the malaise of life and work in neoliberal postmodern society. . . . Highly recommended."
"Nice Work If You Can Get It,/b> is impressive for its extraordinary range and sweep, and for asking questions about the kinds of transnational and cross-class alliances that might be made, the kinds of solidarities that might be forged, between differently positioned members of the global 'precariat': sweatshop labourers, janitors, academics, and creatives. In doing so it offers a passionate, humane critique of contemporary capitalism."

Unveiled, BJP's wedding photography masterclass and competition, is back
Author: Diane Smyth
12 May 2011 Tags: WeddingLecturesCompetition
Calling all wedding photographers - BJP's Unveiled masterclass and competition is back, after a successful 2010 launch.
The masterclass will take place twice this year, on 27 and 28 June, and will include talks by Catherine Westwood, editor of Wedding Magazine, Lisa Devlin, winner of the inaugural Unveiled competition, and Alexis Cuddyre, creative director of the OMG I'm Getting Married! wedding blog. They'll advise photographers how to take fresh wedding shots, and how to publicise their work via national magazines and social media.
Unveiled is run in partnership with Hasselblad, and the manufacturer has opened up its London studio for both days, giving photographers the chance to try out the latest kit and get advice on it from technical experts. The Hasselblad Studio is in Hoxton, East London, and the masterclasses will take place there from 9.30am-5pm.
BJP also invites wedding photographers to enter the 2011 Unveiled competition. The best new wedding photographer will be picked out by and published in Wedding Magazine, and he or she will get their very own dream kit to try out for a week, courtesy of the Pro Centre. Last year over 200 photographers entered, and Lisa Devlin beat off very stiff competition.
Tickets for the Unveiled masterclass cost £25; the competition is free. For more details, visit the Unveiled site.

The District government recently announced a temporary amnesty program that allows Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs [DCRA] customers to secure business licenses – minus $2,000 fines – even if they were operating without permits. This was met with mixed reaction by Ward 7 residents and businesses at the Skyland Shopping Center, along Good Hope and Naylor Roads and Alabama Avenue in Southeast.
"I'm sure people don't have any money so the amnesty is a good idea," said a 60something-year-old native Washingtonian who asked for anonymity, adding that DCRA charges "them a bunch of money for licenses." She stood behind a table vending perfume oils, hats and scarves, and jeans. The table was a stone's throw from a building flattened by a backhoe, in anticipation of the massive redevelopment of Skyland. In late September, Mayor Vincent Gray, 69, marked the start of Skyland's phased demolition.
The woman overseeing the business for her 42-year-son on a Saturday afternoon said he's been licensed since 2006, so he's not affected by amnesty. But he's interested in his vending location once the Skyland overhaul makes way for the soon-to-be-built Walmart.
However, Ms. Oh, who runs an unlicensed beauty and barber supply shop, said she's not renewing her expired license.
"Anytime they give me money, I go," said Oh, 72, a Korean who's been here since 1989, who lives in Virginia. Hers was a Skyland business to be removed to make space for the upgrade, which includes a mixed-use site. D.C. government now owns the businesses through eminent domain. "Last year, until now, they tell us get ready to leave, and they don't come. I'm ready to go." Oh, concerned about her paltry $160,000 buyout, complained it wasn't comparable to what others received.
"They offer me little money, and they got big money," Oh said, adding they got close to a million. While she spoke, at least five customers came into the rundown store to buy hair bands or stockings. By press time, the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Planning & Economic Development, which oversees the city's development projects, said it was working on finding out more about Oh's situation.
The amnesty program, which began Nov. 1, will end Dec. 31, 2012. DCRA said enterprises with expired or no licenses qualify, and won't incur late fees. Also, operators with expired or missing corporation filings or registrations for weights-and-measures devices may benefit from amnesty.
"We don't have stats on the number of unlicensed businesses in D.C.," said Helder Gil, DCRA legislative and public affairs officer, "but based on the CBCI experience, it appears to be a sizeable number operating either with expired business licenses, incorrect licenses, or no licenses at all."
The amnesty program was the result of DCRA's Citywide Business Compliance Initiative [CBCI], which launched a trial period in mid-July. DCRA partnered with District agencies that issue licenses such as the Department of Health, and Gil said they agreed this was the "best way to bring businesses into compliance with the law," rather than exploring if a reduction in licensing fees would make a bigger impact. CBCI visited nearly 300 businesses and found those with the lowest compliance were general-retail stores, food vendors, beauty salons and barber shops.
Businesses with expired licenses or none at all before Aug. 1, 2012, would qualify. Those operating without current registration with DCRA's Corporations Division, and those without registration of their Universal Product Code scanners, commercial weights or scales, produce scales or gas pumps would also qualify. Besides business licenses, Gil said home-based enterprises also need Home Occupancy Permits, which demonstrated they complied with zoning regulations. Operating without this could result in the fine. This is the first business license amnesty DCRA ever offered.
Sandra Forrest, a Ward 7 resident, disagreed about offering amnesty.
"That's not right," said Forrest, 51, adding that scofflaws are receiving undue advantages without giving back. "When you got homeless people out here trying to get hired, some of these small businesses are only hiring their own kind."

Texas Becomes the Second State in the US to Enact Comprehensive Rape Kit Reform
We just received the incredible news from Texas that Governor Rick Perry has signed a bill into law that makes Texas the second state in the country, after Illinois, to pass significant rape kit reform. The new law, which takes effect September 1, requires all jurisdictions to count and report all untested kits and requires the Department of Public Safety to develop a plan to test every one of them.
Having this legislation passed in Texas represents an enormous milestone in the movement to end the backlog of untested rape kits. A groundswell for reform is happening. We hope that in the coming year, state legislators from around the country will be inspired by the work of their counterparts in Texas and Illinois. Texas has shown that it is possible to enact rape kit reform, giving survivors of sexual assault and their loved ones the opportunity for healing and justice that rape kit testing brings.
You can read more of our coverage of this process here on the Backlog Blog and our op-ed from last month urging the passage of the bill in the Houston Chronicle. We will keep you updated as there is more news about this historic event.

Great Hospitality for the money!!. My family and i were on vacation and decided to spend a couple night here. It was great and i was really suprised by how comfortable and convenient everything was. Its close to the beach and for the days where i just wanted to sleep in my wife didnt have to wake me up she just went to the outlets which i loved the best. This def. beat any hotel or motel around and it really gave my family a bonding time. If you get as lucky as us you will see deers running in the woods which was really great.

Complaint Review: DealFind
Toronto, Ontario United States of America |
DealFind SCAMMED AGAIN BY THESE GUYS! GILLETTE FUSION RAZOR BLADES OFFER Toronto, Ontario
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Waited about 2 months and called phone number on whoever it was that was the company/agent behind these. Phone # not in service.
Contacted DealFind by emailing to their "Customer Service Support Specialists" (note there's no phone # listed on their website). No response.
Waited a couple of weeks, tried again. Got response that it was being checked on.
Got a response that they had been shipped. Waited about 2 more weeks, still nothing.
Contacted DealFind again, who said they would be shipped "soon" if I wanted to wait. They offered to cancel the order and either refund my bank acct or give my "DealFind Dollars" with an extra 10% credit or something. I said as long as it was only going to be another week or two I'd wait. Still nothing.
Contacted DealFind again, never received response. I'd say I had been strung along pretty good.
Beware of these guys! Google "DealFind scams" for more victims!
