URBANA, Ohio —

Troopers said the driver was not wearing a seat belt, and that is why she was ejected during the crash.

The accident remains under investigation.

One Piece Cosplay is probably one of the most effective continuous manga series out there. One Piece is one of the greatest emotions out there and because of this popularity, many lovers have become more and more fascinated not just in the manga but as well as the anime. Many have also become enthusiastic about different One Piece series. But that is not all lovers have become connected into. Many lovers have also become One Piece cosplay lovers. Here in the Malaysia, many One Piece lovers have become into the cosplaying field because they want to cosplay certain characters from both the manga and the series. Personally, I have not joined any One Piece Costumes activities however, in some of the cosplay activities that I have been to, I have seen a lot of One Piece cosplayers who joined the said activities. I have seen cosplayers, costrippers and even cross dressers as their preferred characters, heroines and bad guys in the anime and in the manga. I have not seen any new One Piece periods this season but I did see the newest One Piece film known as One Piece Z. One Piece Z was revealed in some regional theatres in the nation and I observed that there was even a meeting to release the said film testing. Either way, I know that the pattern of cosplaying One Piece characters is here to remain. Eager for seeing more One Piece cosplayers in the next activities that I will be participating earlier or later. Keep up the great perform, Philippine cosplayers! Display to the globe what you are able of. I believe in all of you! Cosplay Costumes for sale online : CosplayDeal.com

This was only ok. I didn't add the onion because no one in the house cares for raw onions. But it was a bit too sour for our taste. We are used to slaws having sugar in them, and I think that's what was missing. If I make this again, I'm adding a tsp or two of sugar.

Current Issues & Challenges in Rail Security
Common security challenges face rail systems and some offer their practices to address these issues.
Video Management ♦ Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority
Video management is the new face of public transit, said MBTA Director of Security Initiatives Randy Clarke. An issue the MBTA faced, he said, was how to add technology effectively and how to integrate video. Using their own program and proprietary technology is forcing the vendors to work together. He stressed they are trying to make it an equal situation, working together.
The Physical Security Information Management (PSIM) system provides all of the necessary tools for situation management and awareness. All alarms, videos, all of the sub-systems need to all work together as a whole. Clarke had a video demo of their system and stressed there needs to be consistent responses to behavior.

Lamprell Backlog For Oil Rig Contracts At Record High
Net profit up 11 pct to $73.8 mln; Bid pipeline $5.2 billion at end-Feb; EBITDA up 28.5 pct to $100.8 mln;p Shares up 4.5 pct
March 26, 2012 4:02 by kippreport
Oil rig maker Lamprell said on Monday its backlog of contract bids was at a record high as strong oil prices boost confidence in the sector.
The United Arab Emirates-based firm said it saw opportunities in Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Kurdistan this year and that the new-build area of its business, where revenues more than tripled in 2011, offered further growth.
"What is extremely pleasing is that our bid pipeline is at a high of 5.2 billion dollars, so we're actually seeing strength continuing across the board in virtually all our business sectors," Chief Executive Nigel McCue said.
"This inevitably dovetails in with the oil price, which is still very strong and certainly I'm bullish on the oil price."
The price of oil has risen by 19 percent since mid-December, fueled by tensions between the West and Iran over its disputed nuclear programme, to trade at around $125 a barrel.
The firm is currently bidding on a number of projects in Iraq and Kurdistan and is close to completing a new joint venture with a prominent Kurdistan company, McCue said.
London-listed Lamprell's upbeat outlook is underpinned by its existing backlog, Oriel Securities analystNick Copeman said, but the company faces competition from other firms chasing the same types of contract.
"I can't see any issues today but it's about demonstrating a) that you can win stuff and b) you can get the right pricing to make money from it," he said.
Lamprell said 2011 net profit rose 11 percent to $73.8 million, before exceptional charges related to its acquisition of Norway's Maritime Industrial Services Co (MIS), which amounted to $10.5 million.
The company's acquisition of MIS had increased Lamprell's capacity by 68 percent, McCue said, and added that the company was not seeking more acquisitions this year.
Lamprell also has around 25 percent of the global market in building liftboats for wind farms, which are used to transport equipment offshore and install turbines. McCue also sees growth for the company in this sector.
Lamprell, which started its first jackup rig conversion in 1974, said although its refurbishment business slowed in the second half of 2010, there were now signs of activity in the sector, driven by an upturn in the Saudi Arabian market.
Revenue rose 128 percent to $1.15 billion, with revenue from new-build projects accounting for $790 million. The firm's order book stood at $1.2 billion at the end of 2011.
The company said earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation for 2011 were $100.8 million, a 28.5 percent increase from the year before and ahead of consensus estimates of $91.4 million provided by the company.
Lamprell's shares were 4.5 percent higher at 351 pence at 1005 GMT, having risen 18 percent since the beginning of the year. Oriel reiterated its 'Buy' rating on Lamprell and Copeman said if the firm wins more contracts the shares could rise.
Lamprell is proposing a final dividend of 8 cents per share, down from 9.5 cents last year when the company paid out more following a one-off exceptional gain.

Thumb compass
A thumb compass is a type of compass commonly used in orienteering, a sport in which map reading and terrain association are paramount. Consequently, most thumb compasses have minimal or no degree markings at all, and are normally used only to orient the map to magnetic north. Thumb compasses are also often transparent so that an orienteer can hold a map in the hand with the compass and see the map through the compass.
Thumb compasses attach to one's thumb using a small elastic band.
The first commercially successful orienteering thumb compass was the Norcompass, introduced by Suunto in 1983.[1]
"The Gear Junkie," a syndicated newspaper columnist in the United States, has an in-depth review of thumb compasses.[2]
Placing an even greater emphasis on speed over accuracy, the wrist compass lacks even a baseplate, consisting solely of a needle capsule strapped to the carpometacarpal joint at the base of the thumb; the thumb serves the function of a baseplate when taking and sighting bearings. It is often used for city and park race orienteering.

***First off, I didn't write this, but found it on the Ravens message board on ESPN's pages. It's meant to be taken tongue in cheek IMO and I think any Steeler fan with a sense of humor would find this funny. If you want my take on this just read my profile. Enjoy !!!***
"They could be our barber or our mailman. They might be lurking behind the dark sunglasses of a policeman that pulls you over for speeding. We live in a world that has been infested with the disease of Steeler Fan. This malady turns normal human beings into mind-less towel waving zombie cockroaches that live and fester in the wainscoting of our collative souls. As of now, there seems to be no cure. (I tried throwing holy water on one of them once. It fell to the ground and screamed in pain yelling, "It burns...It burns!!!" for about 45 seconds...but then it righted itself and continued walking.) Are ALL Steeler fans evil? Not necessarily...and some are actually worthy of our pity. To assist Ravens fans in cataloguing these creatures, I have developed a rating system that will help separate the benign, the misguided, and the true pond scum, of this truly pathetic species. This scale has been very therapeutic for me because it made me realize that the ACUTE threat is not as bad as it may seem. It also serves as a reality check to keep me from being a hypocrite. The scale contains 5 categories or "Levels" which I will explain in detail below. Level 1 is the least offensive and Level 5 is the embodiment of true evil. While the explanation of each level is specifically designed for a Raven fan, I fully acknowledge that other cities are also overrun with vermin. If you live in Seattle, for example, I think this scale system can easily be adapted to serve you as well. Also, this analysis focuses on the male of the species, but with a few modifications can be applied to a female Steeler fan as well.
Level 1: Raised in Pittsburgh and Lives in Pittsburgh
The least evil of the Steeler fan species is the one that is from Western PA and still lives in Western PA. We experience this member of the species only if it comes to games in Baltimore to root for the team of its father. I HAVE NO PROBLEM with a Level 1 Steeler fan. There are exceptions to the rule, of course, but other than the insistence on waving that stupid yellow towel, it is usually the LEAST obnoxious while in the stands and is generally respectful of where it is. Plus, I would be hypocrite if I DID have a problem with it, as I have been to three Raven/Steeler games in Pittsburgh and I wore MY colors to all of those events.
Level 2: Raised in Pittsburgh and Lives in Baltimore
The Steeler Fan that is from Western PA but now lives in the Baltimore area is similar to the Level 1 Steeler fan except for the unfortunate circumstance of their current place of residence. And like a Level 1 fan, I cannot have a statutory issue with their existence or rooting position because if I ever moved to Monrovia, I would NOT buy a Ben Roethlisberger jersey and become a yellow Whirling Dervish. Instead of anger, take pity on the Level 2 Steeler fan that they lived in such an impoverished section of the country that they had to move to B'More just to get a job.
Level 3: Raised in a Non-NFL City and Lives in Baltimore
When we engage the Steeler fan that is at Level 3 we start to move from the benign to the semi-evil. Levels 1 and 2, if we are to be fair and completely honest, became Steeler fans for the right reasons. You are supposed to root for the team that represents you and your community. You are supposed to root for the team that your father rooted for. But what if you are from a part the Country that did not have NFL football? If you grew up in Nebraska, for example, who do you root for? Have pity on the Level 3 Steeler fan, for it is truly a lost soul. Like the ancient mariner it had football, football everywhere, nor any team to drink with the albatross around their neck being their man crush on Franco Harris and Terry Bradshaw. Have pity on them, for they will NEVER experience the rapturous ecstasy and purity of joy that a REAL fan can feel like we did on January 28, 2001.
Level 4: Raised in an NFL City and Lives in Baltimore
While we can understand, sympathize, or even excuse Levels 1, 2, and 3, the final two levels are truly deserving of our ire. If someone is from another part of the country that DOES have NFL football but is still a Steeler fan, then they are football fan scum. What the Level 4 Steeler fan does not get is that there is a reason that the Philadelphia Eagles have the word PHILADELPHIA in their name. What the Level 4 Steeler fan does not get is that to be from Denver and to root for the Steelers just because of a man crush on Franco Harris and Terry Bradshaw is not that much worse that rooting for the Yugoslavian basketball team against the US team because of a man crush on Vlade Divac. When you find a Steeler fan pumping his jersey, talking smack, or otherwise being obnoxious, I am willing to bet that more often than not, they are at least at Level 4. Again, sorry that you had to come to Baltimore to get a job...but shut up!
Level 5: Raised in Baltimore and Lives in Baltimore
Welcome to the dungeon! The Steeler fan that was born and raised in the Baltimore area and became a Steeler fan because it had a man crush on Franco Harris and Terry Bradshaw is true pond scum. They have all evils of Level 4 scum, but at least we can psychologically distance ourselves from Level 4 trash. The Level 5 zombie grew up in YOUR neighborhood, went to YOUR school, and whose girlfriend YOU stole! Plus, they have an added layer of obnoxity in that, because of their lack of self-esteem, they go out of their way to taunt Ravens fans. In every sense as it relates to football, the Level 5 Steeler fan has no soul. I hope that this rating system will make it easier to live with, or at least relate to, the Steeler fans in your life. The next time you see a jersey with a #86 on the back that does not have the letters, "H-E-A-P" above the number, ask them where they are from before unloading your verbal barrage. If they say, "I came 'dahn from Pittsburgh just for the 'Stillir game..." respond with "Welcome to Baltimore! I hope you enjoy your stay in our fair city. Make sure you spend plenty of money and contribute to our economy." If however, they say that they were born and raised in Catonsville and they "became" a Steeler fan because we did not have a team for 12 years and they had to root to "somebody, right?", simply say, "I REMEMBER YOU! I stole your girlfriend!"

All those who need protection in Norway shall receive it. That is why the UDI gives every application for asylum careful consideration. This is what is called the asylum process. It is intended to ensure that all those who really need protection are allowed to stay, while those who do not need protection must leave Norway.
The UDI considers each application individually to make sure that everyone is treated fairly. Your application will be treated in the same way and in accordance with the same laws regardless of who you are. When you apply for asylum in Norway, you are asking the Norwegian state to protect you. The Norwegian state can say yes or no to your application. Many asylum seekers have their applications rejected and must return home. The UDI interviews each applicant and uses the results from this interview along with other information to decide whether you qualify for asylum. The UDI also has a great deal of knowledge about the conditions in your home country.
Women may be granted asylum if they are the object of persecution that is aimed principally at women. Persecution because of sexual orientation – being a homosexual, for example – may also constitute grounds for asylum. The UN Convention relating to the Status of Refugees contains further details.
If the authorities in your home country can protect you against your persecutors, you will not normally qualify for asylum in Norway. Nor is it usual to grant asylum to persons who would be safe in other parts of their homeland.
You may still be granted a residence permit in Norway even if the degree of persecution you experienced was not enough to qualify you for political asylum. This could be because there is a war going on in your homeland or because you risk being subjected to inhuman treatment. If your application for asylum is rejected, the UDI will always look at whether you may still be allowed to stay in Norway.
In certain, special cases you may be allowed to stay in Norway if you or your children are suffering from a serious illness for which there is no treatment in your home country.
You will be notified by the police if you have been granted a residence permit in Norway. Then the preparations for your new life in Norway will start.
The length of time it takes for an application for asylum to be decided varies from case to case. If it takes a long time, it could be because the UDI is investigating whether the information you have provided is correct. It could also be because the UDI is looking into the current situation in your homeland. If your application has been refused, you may lodge an appeal. Your appeal will be considered by the Immigration Appeals Board (UNE). It normally takes at least 10 months for the UNE to arrive at a decision.
If the UDI refuses your application for asylum, an attorney will be appointed to help you. The UDI sends the refusal notice to your attorney. The attorney will inform you that your application has been refused and will tell you why. The attorney will arrange for an interpreter if you do not speak the same language.
You have the right to appeal against a refusal by the UDI. Your attorney must lodge your appeal with the UDI no later than three weeks after you have received notification of refusal.
Your attorney will help you formulate your appeal. If the UDI continues to uphold its refusal despite your appeal, your case will be sent to the Immigration Appeals Board (UNE) for a final decision. The UNE is a separate body which deals with immigration appeals.
While your attorney is preparing your appeal, he/she will also request that you be allowed to stay in Norway until your appeal has been considered. The UDI will decide if you are allowed to stay in Norway while your appeal is being considered. You may therefore be required to leave Norway before you have received a final decision.
If the UNE also rejects your application, you will normally have to leave the country within a period of two weeks. A final rejection by the UNE may be appealed to the courts. If you do so, however, you will have to pay your own legal costs. You can ask the court to order the UNE to reconsider your case (Petition for Review). You will normally not be allowed to remain in Norway while the UNE considers your petition for review.
If your application for asylum is rejected, you must leave the country. You can apply to the International Organization for Migration (IOM) for assistance with your return journey. The IOM will pay your travel costs and provide other practical assistance if you travel home with them. You can find more information on our pages about return.
Children under the age of 18 who are applying for asylum together with their parents will be included in their parents' applications. Parents can say if they do not want their children to be interviewed by the UDI. The situation of the children is an important factor in the UDI's consideration of the family's application for asylum. If the parents are granted a residence permit in Norway, their children under the age of 18 will also be allowed to stay. In general, the same principle applies if the parents' applications are rejected. However, each child's application is also considered on its individual merits.
If you have stayed in another safe country before arriving in Norway, or if you have a visa from another safe country, your application for asylum will be considered by that country. You may therefore be sent there. This is called the Dublin Procedure. All EU countries as well as Norway and Iceland belong to this scheme. If you have a Dublin case, you will normally complete a self-declaration form and be interviewed, but the Norwegian authorities will not consider your application for asylum. Nor will you be given permission to work in Norway while you are waiting for a decision to be made.
1. Crime: If you break the law in Norway your application can be quickly rejected and you can be sent back home. You will have difficulty entering Norway and a number of other European countries at a later date.
2. Additional information not provided during the asylum interview: If, after your asylum interview, you feel that you have additional information that might be of importance to your application, you must let the UDI know as quickly as possible. You have a right and a duty to reveal such important information as quickly as possible.
People who are applying for asylum in Norway may also apply for a temporary work permit when they are interviewed by the UDI. If you satisfy the conditions for such a permit, you will be granted one while you are waiting for your application for asylum to be processed.

I'd appreciate it if anyone who saw this would be willing to at least signal boost, if not donate. A good friend of mine needs help. It's not an issue of religion but rather one of culture. Regardless however, she is still very much in danger.
Clicking on the link will take you to the gogetfunding page.
To anyone who wants to give words of advice, hope, etc. Her tumblr is rionkatt.tumblr.com
My name is Afiqah. I am a 19 year old Agnostic lesbian who was born into a Muslim family. My life is under threat.
I had grown up and raised to be Muslim, but I could never accept it. It wasn't who I am. It isn't who I want to be. My fmaily has finally realised this and is now threatening serious action against me. I'm not sure if he knows I'm gay. The fact that I'm not as religious as I 'should' is reason enough for them.
The most recent encounter with parents led them to ask me about my faith. They asked me if I considered myself a Muslim. I wanted to say no, but then my Dad said something that made me change my mind. He said, and I quote, "Cause if you don't consider yourself a Muslim, we have a very serious problem and we'd have to take the necessary measures."
I'm not sure if everyone knows what Islam permits its followers to do to those who stray from the path as far as I did, but to gays, beheading is an option. For lesbians, they would get a hundred lashes.
The punishment for those who "murtad" (no longer believe)… they are to be killed without discretion.
I am scared of dying. I am scared of my parents. I am scared of leaving the girl I love alone because I died.
The girl I love deeply lives in the States whereas I live in Malaysia. I had a plan to get to her while doing my degree in Psychology, but this development has scratched that plan. My parents know the college and would track me down.
I have a friend to help me get to the US, but I need to get out of this house first and foremost. My friend hasn't contacted me these past few days. Even if she doesn't contact me ever, I can at least start a new life somewhere else in this country. Away from my parents.
If my friend gets in contact with me, I'd be able to pay everyone back for their kindness. I could move to the States and be with the girl of my dreams.
The breakdown of the goal is as follows;
In MYR,
Rent for a room = 500
Utilities = 100
As most rentals go, I would need to pay a deposit of 2+1 upfront. And the landlord has asked for 100 MYR as a deposit for utilities. So the first month would be;
In MYR,
+ 500
+ 500
+ 100
In USD, 1600 MYR = 522.658 USD
To round it off, USD 525.
As you may have figured, USD 525 isn't for my plane ticket or any such thing. It is for me to survive so that I can find a way to get to the US without fear of being killed.
I wish I could help. This is horrific :(

Mead Treadwell on Government Reform | |
From absentee voting officials, to keeping polling places open, offering language assistance, and making sure the Voting Rights Act actually protects voters, instead of hindering fair and easy elections, Treadwell described how elections are being made better, safer, and easier for Alaskans.
"Last time I was in Bethel, one of your teachers spoke up," Treadwell told the group. "Principal Janelle Vanasse said they'd really like the State to run advisory board elections. So, a few months later, we got that suggestion made into law. What would make voting easier for you? Tell me how I can help."

I don't like that mindset. Just because you died poor doesn't mean you didn't try. Just because you try doesn't mean you'll succeed.
Not being able to pay the rent anymore can happen fast if you were already on the limit before and something happens. There are situations where you just can't get out without a certain input from outside. You can't get a house if you don't have a job. You can't get a job if you don't have a house. Watcha gonna do?

how much of the blame would you then attribute to homeless people (specifically adults) for creating their own situation? Hence, do we have an obligation to help them or no (and how much)?
Honestly, I can't answer the question quantitatively. However, I do think we have an obligation (as a society) to offer assistance to homeless people, regardless of the cause that led them to homelessness, not only for moral reasons, but also for economic ones. Homeless assistance can create positive externalities (i.e. a benefit which results from an activity which affects an otherwise uninvolved party who did not choose to incur benefit), like for example lower unemployment rate, greater productivity, less criminality etc., thus it can promote the interests of society as a whole. Anyway, this is just my personal opinion.
Based on that info, couldn't the reverse also be true? (instead of just mental issues leading to homelessness, homelessness also leading to mental issues) Lacking economic stability leads to stress and stuff.
Yes, most certainly. Some researchers suggest that homeless people with and without mental illness have similar biographical and demographic profiles and that high levels of mental distress are common to all homeless persons, hence they claim that people who are homeless and mentally ill are not distinct from other homeless persons.
Not being able to pay the rent anymore can happen fast if you were already on the limit before and something happens. There are situations where you just can't get out without a certain input from outside
Quite true, considering that housing costs consume a large share of a person's income (more than one-third is spent on rent). Homelessness can be an extreme form of housing market malfunction.

Homeless assistance can create positive externalities
It could also be enabling negative habbits if it's not done right. Teaching them useful skills that they could use to work is far better than endless handouts.
Homelessness can be an extreme form of housing market malfunction.
The 'malfunction' was the rubber band snapping back. People had been living beyond their means and spending more than they could afford.
Posted Apr 24, '13 at 6:39pm
The housing market quite often does not operate in an optimum way (for whatever reasons), there are many market imperfections (a.k.a. market failures, market malfunctions). These market failures generate a number of problems, including an escalation in house prices and rents, and inequalities, so some persons face increasing affordability problems in accessing housing or are excluded from housing altogether.
The people that had been living beyond their means are mainly a subprime market failure (subprime lenders are borrowers who might be less likely to repay a loan). Market imperfections in the Mortgage Finance System are pretty classic: asymmetric information and agency problems. It doesn't really have much to do with the housing market per se, it's sort of a different type of monster.

The government is providing free homes (for minorities) but some people are too lazy or too prideful to take it.
Posted Apr 25, '13 at 9:39am
Some people like being homeless. No bills, taxes, or responsibilities. Complete freedom. Collecting cans and getting lunch sounds good to me.

Historical Traveler Reviews SpringHill Suites Virginia Beach Oceanfront
7th Floor Oceanfront "Great"
I can say this is a great hotel right on the beach with all oceanfront rooms. One bedroom suite with flat screen, sofa bed, chair, computer desk, wet bar and fridge with microwave. Very nice queen bed in next room great for sleeping with deck door open listening to the ocean. There is no door between the two rooms. Internet works great. " Loved our stay"
Séptimo piso del Oceanfront- "Maravilloso"
Puedo decir que este hotel es fant�stico, directamente en la playa y cada habitaci�n tiene una vista del oc�ano. Tuvimos una habitaci�n/suite con un televisor de pantalla plana, sof�-cama, silla, escritorio, mini-bar y nevera con microondas. Una buena cama queen en el dormitorio, fant�stico para dormir con la puerta del balc�n abierta escuchando el ruido del oc�ano. No hay puerta entre los cuartos. La conexi�n a Internet funcionaba muy bien. A nosotros nos encant� nuestra estad�a.
A Gem!
We used to frequent Virginia Beach years ago. When we were researching hotels, we found that our usual haunts no longer seemed desirable as per this site. We found Spring Hill Suites by Marrriott on Atlantic and 5th. It is a brand new property having only opened earlier this month. What a gem. We were so glad to find this new property. The location was towards the end of the strip but the amenities were well worth the extra walk/drive/trolley rides. The room was beautiful. An ocean view with a terrace which allowed you to watch the sunrise, see what was happening on the boardwalk, or watch the volleyball tournament on the beach! Breakfast was included in our stay. Normally buffets are not that good. However, this one was hot, tasty, and convenient. The pools (both indoor and outdoor) were clean and very well staffed. The hotel staff was very friendly and accomodating. I think the only thing that could improve this property was to add an in house restaurant. Perhaps that is a future enhancement as there was some sort of construction in progress in the back of the hotel on the boardwalk side. Our return to Virginia Beach (this time with our children) was wonderful. We would recommend this property to others - especially families. I think you would be very pleased with what this property has to offer!
2ND Floor "Terrace" was Great!
My overal experience would have been "Excellent" except that we had an issue with the "complimentary valet", however the Hotel Staff went out of their way to personnaly see that EVERYTHING was taken care of. They gave us free nights to take care of the car issue and checked on us frequently. We stayed in both a 1 BR unit and a normal Suite on the 2nd Floor. If you can get a room on the 2nd Floor - GO FOR IT, I had to keep telling my daughter to call it a "Terrace" not a balcony. HUge Huge Huge, you could have a small party out there.
Nice new hotel
Stayed there 8/5 to 8/8. Would recommend to others w/ caveats.
Schönes, neues Hotel
War hier vom 5.8. bis 8.8. Kann es andern mit Einschränkungen weiterempfehlen. Pluspunkte:
What a great place!!!!
This hotel just opened a few days before our stay. I was nervous about there being some opening week glitches, but for the most part everything about this place was fantastic. The rooms were spacious - we had a double-double 1 bedroom. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out. The decor is modern, bright and cheerful, although I overhead some older guests saying that they thought the color choices were "garish". We found it perfect for an oceanfront hotel - very beachy. The lobby is large, bright and full of comfortable seating and a large screen TV. Of course the view is perfect - I think all rooms are oceanfront. There is an indoor pool and large spa, an outdoor pool and hot tub too. These were well used, but never over-crowded. This hotel is very family-friendly and family oriented. It is therefore a bit noisy, but not in a bad way. The outdoor tiki-bar resturant was not open, although every day we were there they promised it would "open tommorrow". (It never did.) The beach in front of the hotel was VERY crowded the entire 5 days we were there, but this was not just at this hotel. There are lots of things to do in VA beach, great resturants and shopping. We enjoyed watching the pirate ship go by our hotel several times a day. We also saw lots of dolphins right off the beach. Breakfast (included in price) was served every day with lots of choices - typical cereal, fake eggs (yuk), biscuits, bagels, sausage, fruit, toast, pasteries, and make your own waffles (yum). A bit crowded at peak times (9:00-10:00), but a great amenity overall.
Very nice new hotel
Very nice all brand new. Friendly staff, clean of course. Pools were great and not over crowded. Breakfast was very good, not just fruit and rolls.
Muy buen hotel nuevo
Muy bueno y completamente nuevo. Personal amable y hotel limpio, por supuesto. Las piscinas eran fant�sticas y no estaban muy llenas. El desayuno era muy bueno, no solo fruta y bollos.
Already Planning to Stay Next Year!
Just got back from a 4 day trip at the Springhill Suites, Virginia Beach Oceanfront. The hotel is brand new so it was great to have everything so clean. The hotel features all ocean front queen suite rooms. Ours had 2 queen beds, 2 tvs (1 which was a plasma screen), microwave, coffee pot, and refrigerator. There was a sofa bed in the room also. Each room has a private balcony with a fabulous view of the ocean and boardwalk. The hotel has a great complimentary breakfast buffet. The buffet has eggs, waffles, cereal, oatmeal, sausage, bagels, fresh fruit yogurt, milk, juice, etc. It is open everyday from 7 am -11 am. This hotel has an outdoor pool which serves poolside food--chicken fingers, nachos, wraps and the like. There is also an indoor pool. It was a very nice area of the beach...very family oriented. The hotel offers complimentary valet service and has it's own convenient parking garage. We had no problems with the hotel. Staff was friendly and courteous. We will definitely stay here again.

Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on

Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you won't let show

Pours a very murky lemon/wheat color. Thick, obviously unfiltered and the fruit surely contributes to the thickness of color. Not a huge head but what are you gonna do, it's a three day old growler.
Smells like very acidic orange juice. Some lemon, some apricot, some wheat malt.
Taste follows very closely. Strong fruitiness that reminds me of orange but with far less sweetness and more acidity--two parts orange, one part lemon. Strong wheat flavor comes through in the aftertaste. Pretty sour but it's definitely all citrus acid and no funk. Great taste.
Mouthfeel is good but not remarkable. Easy to drink as is typical of the style. Refreshing.
A very good berlinerweiss, the fruit blends very well with the style. Definitely more successful than some other fruited berliner experiments I've tried.

Growler poured into a Hill Farmstead stem.
Pour: Hazy deep yellow, with a finger of white head. Head recedes rather quickly, and leaves some nice lacing.
Smell: Woah. Big zesty and juicy citrus up front, with some pineapple and mango. Some tart lemons and some bread. This smells incredibly unique.
Taste: Tart lemons and citrus zest up front, and a good lactic sourness comes in. Lots of breadyness. A nice spicy aspect - light a cross of white pepper and citrus zest continue. The fruit aspect is incredibly juicy. Finishes tart and juicy with citrus.
Mouthfeel: Needless to say, this is insanely drinkable. Tartness is very nice.
Overall: This was the best berliner I've ever had by a lot. Cigar City really nailed this one.

Very pale yellow in color, bordering white. Served with a flimsy white head. Little retention. No lacing. Aroma is very citrus forward and unmistakeably kumquat, though the kumquat has a slight rubber latex aroma to it. Taste is also very citrus forward, but there is more orange and orange zest than kumquat. Mild sweet-tart action. Light bodied easy carbonation. Lighter citrus pith bitterness.

Short review from a fly at Cigar City.
Hazy yellow/straw with a small head. Nose is mainly on citruses, refreshing. Tastes very much on citronella, kumquat is also present and tastes a bit weird here, with a slightly medicinal aftertaste, slightly sour also. Not really easy to drink but refreshing. Not very bad, but somewhat forgettable.

On-tap at Cigar City during Hunahpu weekend. Served in a snifter.
A- Pours a cloudy pale yellow, has a thin white head that recedes to a thin layer, leaves some spotty lacing.
S- Loads of kumquat in the aroma, also some tartness and wheat.
T- Nice lactic tartness, spot-on for the style, the kumquat is still very noticeable but is considerably more subtle in the flavor. A bit of wheat sweetness.
M- Light-bodied, a bit dry towards the finish, highly drinkable and refreshing.
O- A very solid Berliner, the Kumquats are great, especially in the aroma. I had this a few times over Hunahpu weekend and would definitely have it again.

On-tap, served in a tulip
A cloudy pale straw/yellow in color with a one finger bone white cap. Good retention as the head fell slowly to a thin, patchy layer over the liquid.
The nose is of cracked wheat, kumquats, and a touch of tartness. Straightforward, as expected for the style.
Some juicy kumquat flavors leap to the front of the palate. An equal dose of sweet and tart from the fruit with some grainy wheat through the middle. A little bit of lactic tartness comes through in the finish.
Light bodied, easy drinking and refreshing.
This is a nice fruit infused berliner that could a touch more tartness.

First had: on tap at Hawthornes, Philly, PA
Cloudy, golden-copper pour with a white ringlet; minimal lacing. Aroma was light and citrusy. The taste was similarly citrusy, quite acidic, sour kumquat pulp, with some toasted wheat in the distance. Light-medium body, mouthfeel was dry and acidic, but it wasn't overly potent as far as sourness goes, and the lower ABV made this quite a drinkable beer.

Reviewed from notes while I was drinking this fine ale. On tap at CC on Jan 19th. It was still on tap well into Feb. They poured it into an American pint glass, but on my second glass, they poured it into a Snifter.
It poured an extremely hazy lemon yellow color. It almost looked like they poured me a glass of grapefruit juice instead of a beer. I held it up to the light and I couldn't even see the silhouette of my fingers on the other side. On top was a solid pearl white 1/2 an inch head of foam. Nice retention that left behind a large string of rings along the edge and quite a few spots and streaks of lace around the glass. I loved this beer's haziness and color.
Not only did it look like grapefruit juice, but it also smelled like it. I got a strong whiff of tart grapefruit up front. I couldn't find much behind the grapefruit though. I got a little tart lemon, a splash of orange, and some cereal at the end. I don't care if there wasn't a million different aromas in this beer. The strong grapefruit aroma was excellent!
The taste was pleasantly sour and tart and low on the acidity. The first taste was of course the bitter and tart grapefruit. Following the grapefruit was a drop of orange, a touch of tart lemon, and then all the sour and tart flavors are washed away by a great taste of malted wheat. The wheat tasted like a bowl of cereal.
The mouthfeel was light, sour, and tart. But yet it still had plenty of flavor. I got more bitter and tart grapefruit, tart lemon, and a refreshing taste of malted wheat. The tartness doesn't stick around. The malted wheat washed it away. Drinkability is very high due to its low ABV%, it's very flavorful, sour and tart, and it's refreshing malted wheat aftertaste.
A great Berliner Weisse. Even though this beer loved the grapefruit a little much sometimes, it's still a nice refreshing glass of grapefruit juice...I mean Berliner Weisse. Would I drink it again. I'm going to get another glass right now.

On tap at The Top in Gainedville. Taps here are $$$. Pours a cloudy yellow with little head. Smell is strong fruit (kimquat i assume). Very sweet smelling with a hint of sour and yeast. Very sour up front with a fruity flavor going down. Dirty wheat beer flavor lingers, which I am not keen on. Light and refreshing mouthfeel with steong carbonation.

look: 3.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75
Reviewed from notes. Had on-tap at CCB tasting room. Poured into a snifter glass.
A: Hazy light golden yellow with a two-finger white head that fades fairly rapidly. Not much visible carbonation.
S: Fruity sweet and wheat aroma. Smells lightly sour.
T: Follows the nose. The fruitiness is almost an apricot flavor (I'm assuming that's kumquat), wheat graininess gets more pronounced near the swallow. This is only lightly tart, even for a berliner.
M: Light body, fairly low carbonation sensation, and no alcohol to speak of.
O: This is OK, but nothing special. I went into it with very high hopes, but honestly I think it fell short. It could have been more tart, or more fruity, or a combination of both. Certainly nothing offensive about it, but I think there's room for improvement.
EDIT: This review was originally posted under "Dos Anos Berliner Weisse" - a listing I believe the BA powers-that-be added, as I was the first & only reviewer, but didn't add that beer. Since "Kumquat" appears in the name on the CCB menu board, I'm moving the review here.

Happened to be lucky enough to be having a tasting at the brewery the night this beer was released!
The appearance is somewhat cloudy and a bright orange, yellow color.
Smells fantastic! Very juicy and citrusy, I am getting a lot of grapefruit on the nose. I must y I was given a glass by someone the before they put it on the menu so I had to guess at what the fruit was.
Taste- Excellent, wow, really fruity and light with a crisp tartness on the finish. Not too over the top sour, but refreshing the kumquat really ones through nicely and is well received in the flavor.
Mouthfeel is adequate for the style, very light and carbonated. Clocking in at under 4% ABV it's it's about perfect.
If you get a chance to try this, please do, it's excellent. I could drink this one all night long!
