Total disaster and would never go there again. Started with dirty, sticky plastic tablecloth. The waiter said they dont serve shandies so proceeded to bring 5 opened beers in a bucket instead of l shandy.His excuse was he doesnt speak English. One Americano was ordered with milk. One Americano arrived but no milk. By the time the milk was brought up the coffee was cold. one glass was dirty with lipstick on. After an hour one meal was served and as it was placed on the table, all the chips... (read more)

- Attrocious service at Dig in the Ribs!!!

- Low standard food
- Staff is obsessed by the till -regularly there were 5 (!) staff members gathegazing obsessively at it as if it were the Oracle of Delphi - much to disgust of all customers who were desperately trying to catch their eye.

What happened to Dig in the Ribs? I used to be a regular for years, but felt disappointed on my last visit. Prices seemed to have gone up, but what really annoyed me was the service charge of 12% over and above already high prices. The food used to be good, but had deteriorated. Do they have a new chef? Slow and indifferent service completed my judgement that that this was our last visit. (read more)

The Honey Badger for Heisman
LSU sports marketing recruiting staff strikes again.
The Honey Badger takes what he wants.
Video: Leach's plan: Win a game a week
Mike Leach was introduced today in Pullman and well, let's just say they love him already.
Leach's plan to win at Wazzu is very simple, win one game a week. Seems easy enough.
He's back...
New CSU AD thinking big
New Colorado State athletic director Jack Graham has big aspirations for the football program at CSU...hundred million dollar aspirations to be more specific.
Graham has a vision of a $100 million on-campus stadium that will act as a "game changer" for the football program. The vision also includes a plan to make it more than just a football venue, Graham also said that he wants the new stadium to be a gathering place for students, where they enjoy a cup of coffee in a plaza overlooking the field on their way to class.
Graham believes that part of the reason CSU has lacked a football tradition is because of the location of its off-campus stadium. While Graham says that there is no timeline for the new stadium, it should still be a huge draw as the program looks for their next head coach.
Clearly Graham has huge aspirations. Not entirely in line with where the program is currently though. Guys we have spoken with tell us that despite the current issues with the program, there is significant interest in the job. We'll keep you posted on who really get's involved.
Charley Molnar to UMass
We have confirmed that Notre Dame offensive coordinator Charley Molnar will be named the next head coach at UMass.
Molnar has been with Brian Kelly since their time together at Central Michigan, where Molnar tutored quarterback Dan LeFevour as he became the second player in NCAA history to rush for at least 1,000 yards and throw for over 3,000 yards.
Molnar's past coaching stops certainly helped make him the most appealing to UMass as they transition from the FCS to a member of the MAC. Molnar's past coaching stops include Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, Kent State (all in the MAC), plus Central Michigan and Cincinnati.
The Minutemen are getting a proven offensive coach in Molnar and his background in the MAC will surely help the transition to FBS.
48 seconds of laughter
Sometimes we see things and think, that's probably not appropriate for our site.
This is probably one of those...but we simply can't help ourselves. Enjoy a laugh.
Pelini sold himself to FAU
New FAU coach, Carl Pelini, did some research before accepting his first college head coaching position on Monday.
Pelini said that he started to do research about FAU about a month ago, and prepared an 18 page booklet which he shared with athletic director Craig Angelos during his interview. Pelini said that he saw a great deal of potential in the program and referred to the Owls as a "sleeping giant ready to take off". Pretty solid compliment for a program that's only had football for 11 years.
The Owls are getting a proven assistant coach, and two time Broyles award nominee in Pelini, and someone that has already hit the ground running.
Maryland's assistants' contracts ($ included)
The Washington Post, through a freedom of information act request, received and published summaries of each assistant's contract (other than Gary Crowton's which wasn't received?).
Of note, each of the contracts is three years in length; however there is a clause in each that stipulates that "termination shall occur in the event and on the day that Randy Edsall's service as the Head Coach of the Team shall end."
Defensive Coordinator Todd Bradford annual compensation including base pay and guaranteed bonuses from radio / tv, personal appearances, fundraising and apparel / equipment endorsements totals $350,000.
Most of the other assistants are in the $170,000 - $250,000 range.
The lowest paid full time coach is John Dunn, tight ends coach / recruiting coordinator who makes a combined $150,000.
Andrew Wilson, head strength coach, makes $140,000 while Alan Weber, assistant strength coach, makes $75,000.
Fran Foley, director of football operations, makes $110,000 (hey, how come the Ops guy doesn't get an apparel deal?).
Salary and bonus info for each of the assistants is available here.
Tuesday TV
No football on tonight or tomorrow night, but NFL action will resume on Thursday. Taking a look ahead, the schedule for the rest of the week is below.
Thursday - Cleveland at Pittsburgh - 8:20 - NFL Network
Saturday - Army at Navy - 2:30 - CBS

Bahamas Telecommunications Company (BTC) taps DigitalRoute for 4G mediation
BTC's aim when they launched 4G in November was 20 to 30 times faster data speeds -- it worked and is only the beginning.
DigitalRoute has announced that it will support BTCs ongoing 4G and NGN projects, strengthening its presence in the region and also complementing the independent vendors growth in North America.
Industry News
Briefing Room
A 4G network in the Bahamas may seem like not quite news compared to the huge rollouts that are happening in the US, but small implementations such as this provide excellent benefits for residents and visitors and, importantly, a real-life test bed for other markets. With its 388,000 mobile customers, the rollout meant that the Bahamas "leapt light years ahead with a single call," BTCs CEO Geoff Houston said after the launch in November.
The Family Islands in the Caribbean together represent a huge holiday thus roaming market and new majority stakeholder Cable & Wireless sees the BTC roll-out as a first step to bringing the islands into one telecoms entity. Thus BTC was looking for a high performance and flexible solution and according to BTCs CIO Sheldon Mundle the company is very impressed by the rich set of off-the shelf functionality that MediationZone can provide.
The belief is that 4G in an island community with dated telecommunications infrastructure will catapult the community into the age of music downloads, YouTube, banking transactions, ticket purchasing for shows, BBC News or live games, while allowing visitors the functionality and freedom they enjoy at home. In the wider context the data that will need to be managed from 4G network is huge and mediation reduces the number of point integrations required, providing the functionality to manage usage data before it reaches the business support systems, thus streamlining the process.
Reports are already coming in from another island, not only of encouraging take up of 4G service but also of a seismic shift in how customers are using their devices in their daily lives. Watch this space.

> Adsense seems has nothing to do with it
All of the major "content farms" have one thing in common - they serve AdSense or other Google advertising.
They even have less "content" in common. The differences between an About.com, Answers.com, and an Ehow are profound. You can't even put them in the same category.
> Bunches of directories were whacked in this pass, not pretty.
You know - I was noticing that too. There were 2 of my favs that are no longer to be found in the top 3 pages (100 results per page)
> Can someone post a link to a penalized website?
A "penalty" can be done any old way so that you wouldn't even notice it.
If site A gets a bunch of referrals off of one keyword set (lets say, "how to xyz"), and that keyword is simply striped from all their back link anchor text before indexing - would that be a penalty? Would that even show up in someones data? Would you even know it? Could we even see it? What if the site in question got 50% of it's referrals off that keyword phrase and the thousands of descendants?

We offer two ways to locate information:
We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
The color filters light down to a beautiful translucent ruby, brilliant and pure. The aromas could not come from anything other than Pinot Noir, reminiscent of cherry, tea, pie spice and a forest in autumn. The cherries burst red, ripe and zingy on the palate, the tea persists, as does the earthiness, all joined by a touch of clove and vanilla. The flavors live on a silken sensual texture brought into balance by invigorating brightness. Food brings out the best in this wine, tempering its vibrancy, while deepening and focusing its cascade of flavors.
"The 2009 Pinot Noir emerges from the glass with layers of perfumed red fruit and sweet spices. This fleshy, generous Pinot is best enjoyed over the next few years, while the fruit retains its juicy exuberance.

(A Post from my Blog; StiffLeftJab.com)
He clutches a leather briefcase to his chest. Adjusting his dark glasses, he walks toward two young men sitting on a concrete bench.
"Excuse me, I'm with the NCAA. I'm looking for the school's athletic director."
The two young men stop, close their lap tops and stare up at the man.
"Athletic Department?" says the one wearing a Rolex.
The other, wearing red Converse, shades the sun with his hand. His brow furrows. "We have an Athletic Department?"
"We have reason to believe there have been NCAA violations," says Mr. NCAA. "We will impose sanctions. If you could direct me." He reaches into his briefcase, and takes out a small notebook. "And your names are?"
Rolex glances over at Red Converse. "My name? It's...Obi-Wan. And...this is Mr. Kenobi? That's with a K." They snicker.
"What is this all about? Did one of our mighty Beavers think too long over a chess move against Harvey Mudd?" More snickers.
"Much more serious than that, I'll have you know. The NCAA takes rule violations very, very seriously."
Rolex points west. "I think our...athletes?...spend a lot of time at the stadium, over near the Robinson Laboratory. That's where you need to go."
"Thank you gentlemen, your assistance will be noted in my report." As he walks west, he scribbles their names. "Obi-Wan, and Kenobi? With a K," he says to himself.
Moving West, there is a fork in the road, so he proceeds south, must be right, toward the large buildings. Fleming House, Winnett Lounge, and, yes, the Robinson Laboratory.
Approaching from the west, an older man jostles arm in arm with two blonds. He wears a rumpled fedora, boots, and a man purse. A bull whip sticks out from his belt.
"Excuse me," says Mr. NCAA. "I think I'm lost. I represent the NCAA, and I need to speak with your Athletic Director."
"Well, Hello." says the older man. "Let me introduce myself. Ohio Smith, and these little ladies are Pepper, and Cinnamon. NCAA, huh? What seems to be the problem?"
NCAA man squeezes his briefcase closer to his chest. He adjusts his dark glasses.
"Well," he says, looking around. "I shouldn't be commenting on an on going investigation," looking around again, "but," he moves closer to the three, and bows his head, "over the past four years, this institution has allowed 30, that's right, 30 academically ineligible students to play in 12 sports, including Baseball, Basketball, Tennis and Swimming."
"That sounds serious." says Ohio Smith. "Are you sure you have the right campus? This is Cal Tech." He looks down at Pepper and Cinnamon. All three star back at NCAA man.
"But, what? You've come to penalize us? We can't lose any athletic scholarships because we don't have any. Look, my friend, our baseball team is on a 237 game losing streak. The water polo team had a nine year losing streak snapped last year. And mighty Beavers basketball? We've won one conference game in the last 26 years."
All three move past Mr. NCAA Man.
"Don't you think that's punishment enough?"
They wave as they move by. Then to the little ladies, who hang on his arms, "You'll both have to help me embark on my last crusade." All three giggle.
"But, the athletic director?"
Ohio Smith points toward a large stand of trees. "Try the Isotope Handling Laboratory, my friend. Good Luck."
NCAA Man shudders. Isotope Handling? Sweat forms on his forehead. He takes deep breathes.
He's gotten this far, so he trudges on, and what do you know? An ivy covered building. The Isotope Handling Laboratory. "Lead jackets...?" he mumbles to himself. A university campus, there's nothing to worry about. Still, sweat runs down his cheek, as he moves up the steps.
Inside, he peeks into one chemistry lab after another, until...
Two men are in discussion. One sits with his feet up on a table, and dib-dabs a tea bag into a steaming tea cup. The other, in a lab coat, lights a cigar with a Bunsen burner.
"I???m sure," Mr. Tea Bag is saying. "No way Einstein left out three pages of calculations. It's obvious to any right thinking person that he was simply applying the Chain Rule for Partial Derivatives. Conversely..."
"Hello," says NCAA Man. He sticks his head into the room. "This wouldn't be the athletic department would it? Please be..."
"You got it my friend, such as it is." They both rise. Mr. Lab Coat flicks ashes from his cigar. Mr. Tea Bag, wearing a power yellow bow tie, continues to dib-dab a tea bag in his steaming cup. They smile.
"Well, finally. My name is Rooney. Ed Rooney." He brushes off his coat, and pulls out a file from his briefcase. "I'm an Assistant to the Vice President in charge of Rule Violations."
"Yeah, we know," says Mr. Tea Bag, still dib-dabbing his tea bag. "Wait, let me capture the text of our notification to the NCAA." He looks toward the ceiling. "We very much regret that the high standards we expect of ourselves were not met. We acknowledge our responsibility and have taken all necessary steps to remedy this situation and ensure it does not happen again."
They smile at Mr. NCAA, one dib-dabbing, the other puff-puffing. Ed half smiles back.
Flicking ashes at arms length, "Ed, as you well know, we allow students to "shop" their courses. They attend classes for three weeks at the beginning of a term before registration. They like the class they stay. Unfortunately, under NCAA rules, they aren't considered full-time students when they take the field. We caught the problem, and immediately reported it to you guys."
"Well, yeah. So...you already know...I thought..."
"It was simply a failure to communicate between athletic administrators, that's us, our coaches and the registrar. Nothing criminal, purely inadvertent."
"So the NCAA has outlined the penalties..."
"We already imposed our own penalties. No postseason play next season, three years of probation, one year of no campus recruiting and the vacating of wins...except for our basketball win last year, 46-45 over Occidental. First win in 26 years. "
"I didn't know this was already handled?" says Ed. "I was under the impression..." His sweat returns. He stretches his neck. His chest hurts. "It says Isotope...is there any problem...you know, medical..."
"How does shopping classes give athletes an unfair advantage? Unbelievable." He dib-dabs with force. His eyes narrow.
"Shopping classes," says Mr. Cigar. "Admittedly, an academic fraud, but it is present at other lofty towers of academia." He flicks more ashes. More burning embers. "Yale." He stomps his foot. "Dartmouth." He stomps his other foot. "Sarah Lawrence." He waves his cigar. "What about Bryn Mawr? Huh?" And throws his cigar across the room. It lands in a pod of Erlenmeyer flasks. Bubbling Erlenmeyer flasks.
And one final stomp for emphasis.
The ensuing explosion catapults Ed Rooney, the NCAA guy, out of his black shoes, across the room and out the window. He hits the lawn face first.
Still holding his briefcase, he jumps up, befuddled, and without looking back, scurries off toward the far stand of trees.
Mr. Cigar, and Mr. Tea Bag, cough violently, and wave at the smoky air.
"Go away, Sir. We handled all those violations already," says one. "On our own."
"Yes. Mr NCAA Man, our athletic program is completely under control," says the other, "Completely under control."

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 2 /PRNewswire/ -- System Biosciences (SBI) announced that is offering the first small-interfering RNA (siRNA) libraries that target the entire human and mouse genomes. Each GeneNet(TM) siRNA Library contains more than a hundred thousand siRNA templates that target 47,400 human or 39,000 mouse transcripts. These libraries enable researchers to screen these organisms' complete genomes, and identify genes whose function is regulating, controlling, or otherwise affecting specific biological processes, such as signaling cascades, apoptosis, cell proliferation, and differentiation. Genes discovered with this approach are candidates for novel drug targets or diagnostic biomarkers. "We believe that the cost-effective, ready-to-use siRNA library format and its compatibility with Affymetrix GeneChip(R) Arrays for data analysis make the GeneNet Libraries a very practical and useful tool in a wide range of research areas for our partners," says Alex Chenchik, Vice President of R&D at SBI.
Concurrent with the launch, the GeneNet Libraries will be provided to a consortium of Japanese researchers organized by B-Bridge International, a collaborator of SBI. "The collaboration with the B-Bridge consortium will allow us to fast-track market adoption of our genome-wide libraries." stated Enal Razvi, Head of Business Development at SBI.
The B-Bridge consortium consists of research labs from several leading institutes, including Osaka University, Nagoya University, the Japanese National Cancer Center, Tokyo Medical University, Ehime University, the Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research, the National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology, and the National Institute for Advanced Industrial Sciences (AIST).

Movie: Smiley Face (2007) Anna Faris' Jane F. is your textbook pothead. She smokes bowls in her apartment all day instead of finding a job, she repeatedly pisses off her roommate by eating his food and forgetting to pay the bills and, every now and then, she delivers a brilliant monologue out of nowhere (albeit most of the time in her own head).

Margaret Mean said, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
That statement illustrates the implementation of the all-weather field at Stonington High School and the new natural grass fields being done. Friday night, October 11, 2013 at 6pm at the SHS Field, we will conduct a re-dedication before the first home varsity football game.
Several residents approached me in 2011 regarding concerns of our athletic fields. After meeting with previous school officials and coaches, we convened a task force at the January 10, 2012 Board of Selectmen public meeting to develop recommendations on how to renovate the fields for safety, and sustainability. This task force included a group of individuals that supplied a range of expertise and knowledge to study this situation. In viewing their work and being summarized of their meetings, I have to say it was a terrific example of how a group of individuals come together as a team on a problem.
I want to personally thank Athletic Field Task Force for your dedicated work, I was proud to participate and I want to recognize: Paul Sartor (Chair), Andy Rimes & Sandy Grimes (BOF), Alisa Morrison (BOE), George Crouse (BOS) & Joe Ciriello, Mike Pacheco (Pee Wee Football), Bill Sternberg (Resident),George Wingblade (Resident), Mike Crowley (Chair; Recreation Commission), Joe Bragaw, Bill King, Van Riley,Joe Mendonca, Bryan Morrone & the coaches, Lou DeCesare, Milone & MacBroom. Consultant and R.A.D. Sports (R.A.D.). Contruction Co
Also, many other staff members were critical to this project. Maryanna Stevens, Larry Sullivan, Kris Bell, Gail Hantman, Ken Donavan, Steve Murphy & School Maintenance Staff (Did a great job for years with the resources they were provided), Stonington Highway Dept, All the schools we visited and their staffs, The Board of Selectmen, Board of Education and Board of Finance for their support, and the residents, for their advisement, confidence and support of the monies for this project.
Personally I want to thank everyone for their dedicated and timeless work of this project. Please join us for this exciting event.

Mercure Zentrum Hotel Vienna (Austria)
by annav I booked this hotel through Expedia, after hours of researching good hotels for reasonable prices in the centre of Vienna. I could have booked something cheaper but didnt want the hassle of having to get public transport everywhere. This hotel by Mecure is cut into two bits, one is a new building which is very tall and thin with just one ... thin corridor for each floor. It also houses the reception, bar and restaurant as well as having a few computers for internet with a printer. I didnt see inside the other older building as I stayed on the first floor of this new one. The hotel itself was very nicely done, my room was very modern with funky blue lights under the shower in the bathroom, brand new bathroom suite, super clean. The bed was divided into two twin mattresses which was a bit weird but my other hotel in Salzburg had that so I assumed it was the norm. There was a flat screen tv but all but one channels were German speaking so I didnt really watch anything on there. There was a nice grey mirror feature opposite the bed, and a funky headboard made to look like a furry cushion but without any hair. There was also a desk with a plug socket in it for your laptop. I could use fast wifi in my room which was very reliable. The staff were very friendly, the receptionist was almost like a robot she was so efficient and well practiced at checking in. They were helpful with my questions about Vienna and gave us loads of maps to help us navigate around the city. It was my partners birthday trip, and I stated this on my expedia booking, there was a knock on the door and a maid came in with a small bottle of wine, and two glasses with chocolates in them with a note from the manager to say happy birthday. I thought this was really nice of them and my partner was mega pleased with the extra attention! The only problem was that because we were only on the first floor, and the hotel is opposite a night club and near a busy road was that there was a man shouting outside the hotel front door for around half an hour on the second night. He was joined by a group of men being very noisy, and the window was closed and didnt block out the noise at all! No security went outside to challenge the men so I assumed they were staying in the hotel. The room was also unbearably hot on the second night, I had the aircon on the coldest setting and it still was horrible. I think this may be because of the position above the bar and reception with the heating on. I have stated this to both expedia and mecure. Apart from that it was a good stay on the first night, and the location was amazing for exploring central Vienna. We walked to all of the main tourist attractions and went out for dinner and icecream locally. Read the complete review |
Camp Davy Crockett (France)
by xmum2threex Checking in and out We stayed at the Davy Crockett ranch the last week in March. While this is still classed as off season, with the Easter weekend the following week it was an extremely busy time and the whole ranch was actually booked up. We could have stayed at a partner hotel, but we were interested in staying at a Disney ... related hotel really, but this was the only one that could accommodate our party size. We had three adults, two children and two toddlers in our party. The cabins can hold up to 6 people, but as two of ours were toddlers we were able to stay. As with all Disney related hotels it has a theme. This was a western theme with wonderful tepees and logs everywhere. On arrival we passed the entrance gate showing them our reservation letter to gain entrance. We were then directed to a small building on the left hand side to collect our key. We arrived at 3.20 and the earliest you can check in was 3pm so we did hit the afternoon rush. I stood in line for around 20 minutes despite there being four different staff attending to other holiday makers. I finally reached the front of the queue and was greeted by an overly excited gentleman. As soon as I said hello he swapped from French and began talking to me in English. He then took my reservation letter, and asked me to fill in a form which included my details and passport number which was all very simple and took only five minutes. He then began to run through all the extras I had booked with our stay. I was given a quick summary of the park facilities, handed my keys and told which path to follow to find the cabin. Then we headed towards yet another gate where we needed to input a code to gain access to the trails to. This needs to be done each and every time you want to access the roads that lead to the cabins. All of the cabins are separated into different sections so they are very easy to find. Ours was the bobcat trail so we were towards the start of the camp. Everything is well signposted so we knew exactly where to go. Checking out is a breeze. Simply vacate the cabin by 11am on your last day, and drop your keys into a small key box on the way out. If you have borrowed any of the extras provided simply pop back into the reception to receive your deposit back, and drop the keys while you are there. If you do not drop your keys in by 11am they will charge you for an extra nights stay so it's better to be a little early if you can. Getting to and from the parks This for us was a nightmare. You do need a car to stay at the ranch as it is a 10 minute drive away from the parks, and getting to your cabin itself is a 10 minute drive. The thing is each and every time we returned to the ranch we became lost. The roads were very confusing and the sign post is not marked the exit before but two or three ahead so even with three adults trying to follow directions we found ourselves lost. Then there is nowhere to turn around for miles as it is all motorways so we had to continue for a while before we could head back. It was not until the last two days of our visit we managed to find ourselves back without it taking half an hour. Getting to the parks was a doddle. With one main road and then one exit it actually took five minutes max to get to the Disney parks. Once you reach the car park you need to pass through a barrier where you can gain free entry with your hotel ID pass. This saves you paying the 15 euro's that is usually charged for using the parks car park. This was valid until the day after we left the hotel and saved us a lot in the long run. The cabin The cabin is actually more of a caravan with wooden cladding stuck to it. It is set out on a lovely scenic trail, and while you do have other cabins around you it definitely feels very secluded and relaxing. I was relatively surprised with the size and up keep of the cabin. I had no choice where to stay if I wanted to take my children to a Disneyland hotel as for our party size of seven only the Davy Crockett ranch was suitable for the size of the party. I had read reviews before I went and it had stated the cabins were dated, sometimes unclean and just very basic so I have to admit I was a little worried turning the key and peering inside. Yes the cabin is dated with yet more wooden cladding everywhere, and has a real old feel to it but this is all fitting with the western theme. It was in no way untidy, everywhere was spotless and there were even small miniatures in the bathroom for us to enjoy. When booking Disneyland were aware that there would be three adults, two children, and two infants. While my son is classed as an infant he was only three months away from being classed as a child, so it was explained there would be a pull out bed for him. When we arrived we found there was a main living area made up of a sitting area and an open plan kitchen area. Then there was one bedroom with a large double bed and lots of storage including a dressing table. In the second bedroom was a set of bunk beds, and finally in the front room the sofa pulled out into a double sofa bed. We had brought our travel cot along for my youngest daughter but upon inspection there was no pull out bed for my youngest son. I suppose we could have phoned reception and queried this, but as we were on holiday he was actually really excited about top and tailing with my eldest son. My husband and I needed to take the sofa bed as there was barley room to walk around the double bedroom let alone put a travel cot up in there. The kitchen area was made up of a hob with four rings, a fridge, a toaster, a kettle, a dishwasher and a microwave. Luckily we had purchased the half board dining plan so never really made anything apart from toast and eggs in the morning, but it is lacking somewhat for something described as a self catering holiday. If you were planning to save money by eating in the cabin it would be difficult to put a decent meal together. Also while there was plenty of basic cutlery, and of course a cork screw, we did find that a tin opener and knifes again were lacking. This is something I would suggest taking along if you are thinking of actually using the cabin to eat and prepare meals in. The bathroom was very clean and although small fully functional. There were towels provided along with soap and some small miniature shower gel bottles. We had taken our own toiletries but did take them home for a keepsake. There is a bath and a shower so perfect for either and everything was perfect for the small stay we were there. Opposite the bathroom was the toilet which is in separate room. This is handy when more than one family are sharing, and this is also were the small supply for cleaning supplies were kept.. You are given a map of the camp which can be exchanged for a cleaning kit at the village shop, but to be honest it is written so small we did not notice this until the day we left. We purchased dishwasher tablets at £2 as they had washing up liquid but no sponges. It does not have a huge amount of space and with so many of us inside it could feel very small at times. Saying that we barley spent time in the cabin so this really did not bother us; we used it purely for getting ready in the morning and sleeping. Most nights we did not return until past nine, by which time my children were ready for bed. The bunk beds provided a good night sleep for my children, and my sister in law was happy with the double bed in the room. I have to say our sofa bed was lacking comfort, with a dip in the middle made it rather uncomfortable, but we were expecting this with it being a sofa bed. It was clean and all the bedding fresh but it certainly was not 5 * comfort. The whole area was very quiet despite it being mainly families with young children staying in the nearby cabin they were spaced well enough to provide a quiet night's sleep. The curtains could be drawn to block out all light and generally we were able to rest well. There is a Tv that has a few Disney channels and you can turn the language to English which was perfect for our small children. For adults it was a little lacking with news channels, and a guide on how to get the best out of the park but that was all. Service As it is a self contained cabin we had little contact with the staff, but that we did have was perfect. Firstly our storage heaters in the cabin decided they would pack in half way through our stay. We rang reception using the phone in the front room, and within 10 minutes an engineer knocked the door and fixed the heaters. This was all done very efficiently despite it being past midnight that the problem occurred. Next our car decided to make a horrible grinding noise, as it obviously did not like the huge drive from Scotland to Paris. We phoned reception and they gave us a list of garages printed out in English on a sheet of paper. They were very helpful each and every time we spoke to them. You can ask for the housekeeper to come and give your cabin a tidy while you are at the parks through the day. This is a free service, but we decided against it as it was only little bits that needed done so i would do that in the evening. The village Other than access to the parks the ranch has its very own mini village. To be honest we did not use it all that much as we tended to only return to the cabin to sleep, but from what we did see it was very convenient. We were advised to take our car if we were visiting the village as it is a fair walk from our cabin. This was about a 5 minute drive away so we could have walked it if we had liked but as we only visited on a few occasions this did not really matter. There is a restaurant which we dined at one evening, and is a buffet style service. This was perfect after a long day in the parks and we just wanted a little quiet time rather than trying to beat the crowds. The food was not fantastic, but it was still ok. It certainly matched the budget site well. There is also a swimming pool that is open 8am-10pm. We never made it round to using it although we had planned too as the parks just took up all of our time. The restaurant acts as a viewing gallery to the pool and it looked very impressive. A great size with a wave machine and hot tubs, and we would definitely make the effort to use it if we ever visit again. The shop like most Disney stores is dominated by merchandise rather than grocery supplies. They do have a lot of essentials like milk, brad juice etc but as you would expect for the convenience it was all overpriced. The few times we visited goofy was also there dressed in his western clothes to match the theme of the ranch. He just tended to move around the shop causing trouble, stealing my chocolate bar. He was brilliant at entertaining the children while I picked up a few bits. I will say that there is a large shopping centre (Val de Europe) about 10 minutes from the ranch which we used a lot more. There are a huge amount of shops, and a 2 story supermarket which was much better value. On the ranch there is a small play area for the children, a petting farm where there are pony rides ($6 for the pony rides), and a large adventure activity park for the adults. Everything is included in the price you paid for your cabin excluding the adult's adventure land there is a fee for this, and you need to book ahead. All of the activities said weather permitting, but I am guessing they mean rain as it was freezing cold while we were there and it was all still open. Finally there is a bar if you fancy a quick drink in the evening it is open 6pm-11pm. Summary To be honest I thought at first we would have preferred to stay in a Disney hotel rather than the ranch itself as they are more conveniently located. After staying there I actually found it perfect to wind down, and it was the perfect break from everything Disney that is thrown in your face all day. You do need a car as there are no shuttle buses like the other Disneyland hotels, and it is a fair drive so taxis everyday would not be a great option. The cabin is more of a caravan with cladding stuck to it, but the extra space compared to a hotel room was perfect. It is not a 5 * resort and while it is a little dated it all adds to the western theme they have running. The cooking facilities are a little rubbish, but we had booked the half board meal plan with our package anyway so this really did not matter to us. If you are planning to cook I would take extra bits and bobs like a tin opener and sharp knives. The cabin was clean and fresh, the living area a fair size and even with the bedrooms being a little small it was perfect for the short time we were there. You can hire a hair dryer, an iron and other bits and bobs from the reception for a small deposit. It was quiet enough so that we could get good night's sleep and it really is a nice quiet camp. There is a bench outside with a barbeque, but to be honest it looked like it was 10 years old, so even if the weather had been nicer we wouldn't have used it. We managed to book while it was on offer at 40% off which means we paid close to £600 for 4 nights and 5 days. This includes park tickets for 5 days, the cabin itself with use of all of the facilities in the village, and free parking for the parks. Although we booked this ranch as we had no choice because of our party size, we found this price to be extremely cheap compared to the hotels. It is a self drive self catering holiday but we added a dining plan on top of our basic package. We would return in future as it was reasonable for the price we paid, but after the extras of the Disneyland parks we will be saving for a good while yet : ) Read the complete review |
Occidental Allegro Riviera Hotel (Tunisia)
by MollyWH The Occidental Allegro Riviera Hotel is a 4 star hotel. We mainly booked this holiday just to have a cheap, chilled out week in the sunshine. We also wanted a fairly short haul flight and we felt that Tunisia would be perfect for this. Travel Time from The UK We flew from London Gatwick and our flight took 2 ... and a half hours which was lovely as I am used to really long haul flights. The Occidental Allegro Riviera is located about a 40 minute bus journey from the airport, with a few other drop offs included on the way. Our transfers were included in the price of the holiday. Price We paid £455 per person for 7 nights on an all inclusive basis which I thought was pretty reasonable. This hotel also has a sister hotel called the Occidental Allegro Abou Sofaine and you can actually use the various facilities at this hotel for free, such as the outdoor and indoor swimming pools, tennis courts, mini golf and the disco although you will have to pay for your food and drinks if you have them at the sister hotel. Arrival And Check In As our coach pulled up outside the hotel, we could hear some really loud music playing. As we arrived at the entrance to the hotel, there were four dancers, dancing along to the music. Our rep informed us that this was the hotel animation team and they liked to welcome new arrivals with a song and a dance. At first I found this a little off putting as the main aim of our holiday was to chill for a week and I wasn't sure if the hotel was going to be much more lively and louder than we had expected. As we got inside the hotel, we were greeted by a porter who took our luggage and asked to check in at the reception. There was only one other couple from the coach that were staying at this hotel so the check in was really quick and we found the reception staff to be very friendly and helpful. We were asked to complete a form while we were checking in and we had to give details such as names, date of births, home address and passport numbers. Once we had completed the forms, we were handed our room key and given directions to our room which was on the 3rd floor. The Staff All the staff at the hotel exceeded our expectations. They were extremely helpful and very well mannered. They looked very smart in their various uniforms and I couldn't help thinking that they must get awfully hot in their uniforms. They all spoke a decent level of English so it was easy to ask them the various things we wanted to know. The waiters in the restaurant were so friendly and had our drinks memorised after our first night there which I thought was rather impressive. The animation team that greeted us upon our arrival were a lovely bunch of people and really tried to make an effort to ensure everyone enjoyed their holiday. The Room We actually booked a double room so we expected a double bed but when we arrived in our room, we found that we actually had two single beds that had been pushed together to make a double. This wasn't a problem for us but thought I had better mention it as it might be for some people. The beds were clean and had a sheet, a blanket and a top cover so you certainly won't find yourself getting cold. The bed linen was a dark green colour and the rest of the room fitted in with this colour scheme, with the chairs etc all being the same shade of green. Each bed had 2 pillows on it and there were also extra pillows provided (these were kept in one of the cupboards) In the room, there is a TV (with quite a few English/American channels as well as German and Russian channels), a 2 seater bench style chair, a couple of stool type chairs, a sideboard are, a large wardrobe with a free safe inside, another double wardrobe and a bedside table beside each bed. There was also a radio that was built into the area above the beds. The bathroom was fairly spacious and consisted of a full length bath, with a shower over the top. There was also a sink and mirror area which was fairly large with plenty of room to store all our toiletries. There was a hairdryer attached to the wall in the bathroom so I wouldn't bother to take your own if you are staying here. The hotel provided us with fresh, clean towels every day and these were left on the towel rail in the bathroom. Also in the bathroom was a small toiletry rack on which held free toiletries such as shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. The toilet was located next to the bathroom in a small room of its own which literally just consisted of the toilet. At first I found this a bit odd, with the toilet being separate but my boyfriend loved it as I spend hours in the bath so he could still use the toilet while I chilled out in the bath! There was also air conditioning in the room although we never used it as our room was in a fairly shaded area of the hotel so it never got too hot. Each room has a balcony or a terrace and I should imagine that most room have a scenic view, we overlooked one some of the hotel garden and the large swimming pool which was nice. There are sliding patio doors which lead out to the balcony, also meaning that plenty of light was let into the room. Our balcony was furnished with a small table and 2 chairs. The rooms are cleaned to a very high standard and towels and bed sheets replaced every day. Restaurants There is one main restaurant at this hotel which is called Palmiera. This is where the buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner is served. There are also two a la carte restaurants which guests are allowed to dine in for one night per week that they stay at the hotel. Monta Grosso was the a la carte Italian restaurant and Medina was the Tunisian restaurant. Sadly we never actually got to eat in either of these restaurants but all you needed to do was let the reception know which restaurant you would like to eat in and on what day and they sort it all for you. Palmiera As I already mentioned, this restaurant was the main one and breakfast, lunch and dinner were served here, all in the style of a buffet. Breakfast was served between 06.30am and 10.30am, continental breakfast was served between 10.30am and 11am. Lunch is served between the hours of 12.30pm and 14.30pm and dinner is served from 06.30pm - 09.30pm. Breakfast is self service in the form of a buffet. Breakfast was one of my favourite meals here, purely because there was so much choice - cereals, a large selection of fresh breads, cakes, croissants, fruit and yogurt. There is also chef station where the chefs cook up various items freshly right before your eyes. These items included fried eggs, crepes and omelettes (various varieties). There was a selection of fresh juices which you could help yourself to. As well as all that, there was also a hot selection in the breakfast area which consisted of items such as scrambled egg, toast, sausages, beans, tomatoes and fried potatoes. As I already mentioned the selection is huge for breakfast and the food is kept nice and hot despite the fact that it is buffet. The food varies every evening which I really enjoyed as many all inclusive hotels that I have stayed in serve the same food day in day out. There was plenty of food to choose between such as soup, loads of salad dishes and vegetable dishes. Every evening, they have a different type of meat being cooked freshly in front of you at the chef station and they also had a different type of fish every night. As well as all the salad and vegetable dishes, there were several meat and fish dishes which were cooked in different types of sauces. Chips were also available every evening and they even had items such as chicken nuggets, fried chickens wings and prawns. All in all the choice was pretty good and you could easily eat something different every night if you wanted to. There were three dessert areas, one of which has sweets such as chocolate and cream cakes, another one consisted of a selection of fresh fruits such as oranges, melon and peaches and the other one served various flavours of ice cream. Bars There are four bars at the Occidental Allegro Riviera hotel. Lobby Bar As you would imagine this bar is located at the hotel lobby and there are two sections, smoking and non smoking. There is a bar in the smoking side where you can various alcoholic and soft drinks. Snack Bar The snack bar was located near the pool and served food as well as drinks. Food was served between the hours of 10am and 5pm and consisted of sandwiches, meat and fish dishes and a selection of salads. There was also a chef station in here where you could have various flavoured pizzas and crepes cooked fresh in front of you. There was a small seating area indoors and a larger seating area outdoors so you can enjoy your food in the sunshine. To the left of the food area, there was a bar where again they serve a selection of alcoholic and soft drinks. This is the main area where you get your drinks while you are sun bathing near the swimming pool and although the bar can get busy at times, we were always served fairly quickly. Late Night Snack Bar This bar is located in the same area as the snack bar is open between 11pm and 01.30am. The food is limited to snack items such as sandwiches, pizzas and crepes. Beach Bar The Beach Bar is actually located in the sister hotel as the beach is out the back of the sister hotel. The beach bar is located in the middle of the section of the beach which is allocated to the hotel. Here you can choose from a selection of alcoholic and soft drinks as well as the usual snack items such as sandwiches and pizzas. There are patio style table and chairs laid out on the beach where you can sit and enjoy your food and drinks. As well as the various restaurants are bars, there are a couple of other places to eat and drink. Disco The hotel actually has its own nightclub which opens at 9pm and closes at 3am. The nightclub is really nice with soft seats and a large dance floor as well as a stage. Various shows are performed here every evening by the animation team and for the beginning part of the evening the animation team get all the children up dancing while the parents can sit and enjoy a drink. The nightclub has a higher tier where there are soft seating areas and the lower tier has seats laid out for the shows which are then taken away once the show has finished. They serve a selection of hot and cold drinks in the nightclub. Cafe Maure This cafe is located in the main reception of the hotel and here you can help yourself to fresh tea and coffee. Various cakes are also laid out throughout the day which you can help yourself to. The cakes included fresh doughnuts which were lovely. The cafe itself is quite small with only a couple of seating areas but the cafe is located right next to a larger seating area and you are more than welcome to sit here and enjoy your drinks. Cocktail Bar Also in the lobby of the hotel, there is a small cocktail bar and we were surprised to find that we could also have cocktails on an all inclusive basis. The cocktail bar opens at 5pm and closes at 11pm. You can choose between alcoholic and non alcoholic cocktails and although the menu wasn't massive, there was something to suit everyone's tastes. The Beach As I already said, the Occidental Allegro Riviera doesn't actually have it own beach. The beach for this hotel is actually located at the back of the sister hotel which is about a 5-10 minute walk from the Riviera. The section of the beach which is allocated to the sister hotel is not overly huge and it did always looks busy although we always noticed that there were several free sun beds so I can't imagine having any problems trying to find some beds to use for the day. Personally, we prefer to lay by the pool as I always get covered in sand when I lay on the beach so aside from walking down to the beach to have a look on several occasions, we didn't actually spend much time here. However, there were plenty of sun beds with tables next to them. There were also plenty of sun umbrella so you had the choice of sitting in the sun, or using an umbrella and resting in the shade. The beach is obviously sanding with bright white sand and there were plenty of people swimming in the sea. I dipped my toes into the sea and have to say, I thought it was far too cold to be swimming in but each to their own!! Various water sports are available on the beach (at an extra charge) and these included hiring pedaloes and jet skies and you could also take a ride on a banana boat or go para sailing. Swimming Pool There is one main swimming pool at the Riviera Hotel, although this does have a smaller pool attached to one side which is the designated children's pool. The pool is fairly large and there are areas all around the pool for sun beds. There are enough sun beds for everyone and they are all available free of charge. As you select your sun beds, the pool man with come over to you with soft mattresses for them. The pool has a deep and a shallow end and you can enter to pool by a set of steps in the shallow end. The pool is open between the hours of 8am and 6pm and guest must not swim in it while it is closed. There is also an indoor swimming pool which is located on the ground floor of the hotel, opposite the health club. The indoor swimming pool was beautiful with lovely painted walls. The swimming pool is circular and the water was a luke warm temperature, making it very nice to swim in. The day we used to indoor pool, we found that we were the only two people there so the indoor pool would be more suitable for people who like their own peace and quiet. Towel Station There is towel station which is located to one side of the main pool. You are charged a deposit of 10 diners (about £5) for the towels although the deposit will be refunded when you return the towels. He towels need to be returned by 6pm every day. Family Friendly Personally I do not have any children yet but I did notice while staying at this hotel that it would be a great place to take children (as long as you take great care to protect their skin from the Tunisian heat). The hotel caters for children very well with lots of children areas such as a kiddies area where they can play with toys, watch videos, colour in etc all under the supervision of the hotel staff so you know they are in safe hands. As mentioned earlier there is a kid's pool which will certainly keep them entertained for a while. Health Club This hotel has a little Health club complete with a sauna, massage rooms and a hairdressers (although you do have to pay extra for these services). My boyfriend and I had an all over massage which lasted about 45 minutes and this only cost us £10 each which I thought was a really good price. Gym There is a fully air conditioned Gym onsite at the hotel although I have to admit to not using this (I don't use one at home so certainly not using one while I am on holiday) In Conclusion I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to visit Port el Kantaoui in Tunisia. It is in a great location, with some shops about a 10 minute walk in one direction and the Marina and town centre a 10 minute walk in the other direction. The hotel is modern, clean and has a very welcoming atmosphere. I was impressed with the selection of food available and found that somewhere was open for you to get food whatever time you pleased. I really liked the idea of the disco, as quite often when I go on all inclusive holidays, I am reluctant to leave the resort because everything is already paid for so I liked the fact that you could have a few drinks and watch a show within the grounds of the hotel without having to spend any money. I think this hotel offers everything you would expect of a 4 star hotel. Read the complete review |

[quote:Illegal Alien 37826:MV8zMjYwMzJfNTUxODc1MV9EMENBMDU3NA==] And that's enough of that. I've got better things to do with my time. [/quote]
Original Message
Since the announcement and public display of aliens is soon and imminent, I thought it would be a good idea to compile a list of questions you may want to ask them at the announcement. If you like to know the answers to these questions I would be ecstatically happy to assist you.
1. Since you have no reproduction systems who are your parents?
2. Why do you choose to show up at this time in the history of humanity?
3. Why did you abduct humanity against their will?
4. What are you looking for when you experiment upon humanity?
5. Why in your experiments and abductions do you focus on the reproductive system of humanity?
6. Why do you use the good cop bad cop theory to make it appear that even though some aliens are bad that there are actually some good ones?
7. How long have you dialogued with governments of this planet?
8. Why did you kill one of your own kind by purposely crashing a vessel in Roswell, New Mexico?
9. Why did you subject one of your own to a live dissection knowing he could feel the pain even though those who dissected him thought he could not feel it?
10. Why did you ask our government to abduct humanity for you?
11. Why do you not abduct those who are known by you to be stout hearted Christians?
12. Why are you afraid of the authority and power of Jesus the Christ?
13. Why do you harvest hybrids?
14. Why do you pretend to come from far away solar systems and galaxies when you know you are actually from this area of the solar system and have been so for quite some time?
15. Why do you never go to visit your fellow clones in other parts of the Universe?
16. Why do your fellow clones in other parts of the Universe never come to visit you?
17. Why do you care not to reveal your parents and do not want others to know of that relationship.
18. Why do you care not to reveal you have no real home origin that presently exists?
19. Why do you engage in cloning to create different looks to make it appear that you are from many areas of the universe?
20. Why do you tell humanity of pending catastrophic events without telling that the events are natural and occur approximately every 40,000 years.
21. Why are you now stepping up your appearances (sightings) in our skies?
22. Why do you teach some of this planet to pollute our skies with chemicals that you claim will help deal with the present global warming problem when you know that it is a lie and will not help do nothing short of causing physiological changes to bodies over time, assist with mind control and also help prepare the skies for your soon arrival?
23. Why do you stand before those you converse with in your pure form yet project holographic images into the minds of the viewers to appear to be different?
24. Why do you not tell the people of this planet that your leader is truly Reptilian in nature and appearance, and is a hater and despiser of humanity?
25. Why do you not tell the people of this planet the name of your leader which is already known by many?
26. Why will you at the time of greatest need for this planet, when this earth is shaking violently, (earthquakes, volcanoes, pole shifting) pretend to be angels of light here to assist when you will actually be staging their demise?
27. Why have you chosen to dupe the governments of this world and the rich and the elite knowing full well that you are planning their demise and especially the USA.
28. Why have you not informed those in cahoots with you that they will be the first destroyed after they have assisted you in bringing forth a ONE WORLD ORDER?
29. Why have you not informed those in cahoots with you for a one world government, that this government is only temporary, to allow for ANOTHER one world leader who will be most brutal; a leader who will be of your kind; a leader with no soul?
Thanks for considering the use of these questions………….

Kara DioGuardi Lands Bravo Reality Show
"Hit songs are the backbone of the music industry, and as a publisher, nothing excites me more than finding new songwriting talent," DioGuardi told PEOPLE. "I am happy to be a part of a show that helps up-and-coming songwriters pursue their dreams, while giving the public a look into the creative process."
She will be head judge on the 10-episode series. Singer Jewel will serve as host. 'Going Platinum' is scheduled to premiere next year, Bravo announced Tuesday.
DioGuardi, who has written hit songs for such artists as Carrie Underwood and Pink, was a judge on 'American Idol' for two seasons before she was ousted earlier this year. FOX quietly issued a press release in September confirming the 39-year-old singer-songwriter-producer would not return as a judge on 'Idol.'
According to EW.com, FOX's announcement included this statement from DioGuardi: "I felt like I won the lottery when I joined 'American Idol' two years ago, but I feel like now is the best time to leave 'Idol' ... It has truly been an amazing experience. I am grateful to FOX, FremantleMedia and 19 Entertainment, as well as the cast, crew and contestants, for all they have given to me. I look forward to my next challenge, and want to thank everyone who has supported me. All the best to everyone on Season 10!"

I agree. But I believe that another MAJOR failing for the show was the fraud that kept A. L. from winning the title, while the producers of the show did nothing to correct the inequities. Too Bad.

Who cares if Kara DiGuardio gets a reality show. It's a waste of air. She's an air bag. I always muted her when she was judge of AI. I'm not a fan, and won't be watching. Bravo is scrapping the bottom on the barrel on this one.

On-tap at Farmhouse.
Pours a clear golden yellow-orange with off-white head. Nice lacing.
Bitter aroma of floral hops with some light citrus, orange and tropical fruit.
Upfront taste is bitter floral and citrus hops with some distinct orange or tropical fruit. Toasted and sweet malt. Bitter hoppy finish--floral, citrus, tropical fruit, resin. Lingering citrus bitterness. Some fruity esters come out at the finish as it warms along with a more floral lingering flavor.
Light to medium body with moderate to high carbonation. Clean, kind of bubbly finish.
Much more American in style than I expected. Huge hop presence with moderate bitterness. Floral components are a little more like Belgian IPAs I've had, but that's the only comparison I could draw. Easy to drink and really good--I was impressed.
Serving type: on-tap

The Oubliette is a solid Begium style pale ale that poured a golden clear with white head that left a spotty lace. The scent carried citrus and that belgian wiff. The taste was a light crisp pale ale with spicey orange peel. The mouthfeel was light in body with good carbonation. Overall, a decent beer.

In one of the closest races in Belmont election history, the Planning Board's Andres Rojas defeated School Committee member Dan Scharfman by a mere 32 votes, 2,165 to 2,133, for a seat on the Belmont Board of Selectmen.
Rojas replaces Angelo Firenze on the three-member board.
Belmont saw 4,413 votes cast as 26.1 percent of registered voters entered one of the town's eight polling stations on Monday, April 2.
The victory is historic as the New York-born Rojas – a Cambridge-based architect – becomes the first Hispanic and first minority member of the Board.
Board of Selectman votes (unofficial) Andy Rojas 2,165 (50.29%) Dan Scharfman 2,133 (49.55%)The School Committee will see its first educator elected in many years as Pascha Griffiths finished a close second to leading vote getter Ann Lougee. Matt Sullivan, who abandoned a run for Selectmen to run for the School Committee, finished a distant third.
Griffiths victory is also noteworthy as she has been a resident of Belmont for less than three years. Lougee will keep her seat on the board, which she was appointed in October.
School Committee votes (unofficial) Pascha Griffiths 2,708 (37.64%) Anne Lougee 2,894 (40.22%) Matt Sullivan 1,588 (22.07%)Martin Millane will retain his seat on the Board of Assessors by beating back a challange from Gerard Natoli, 1,979 to 1,679.
