Asking them to regain the heights of the 1980s would be too much, but they can still be a force in international competition

Anyone can discern the direction of travel. The challenge is to decipher whether it is a cycle or a trend. Will things naturally improve again, once the wheel begins to turn? Or is the decline structural, a trend that will lead inexorably downwards towards collapse, unless its course is radically changed? It is a central question. Before we can improve the situation, first we have to understand the nature of the problem.
In the case of West Indies cricket, the decline was beginning to look ominously like a trend rather than a cycle. Over the last ten years, West Indies have consistently languished at the bottom of the Test match rankings. West Indies cricket is much loved around the world - including by this column - but its fans struggled in vain for signs that this was just a passing phase rather than a permanent decline. Anyone who watched West Indies drift towards annihilation on the Test tour of England in 2009 could only conclude that the good old days of Caribbean cricket - of lithe but lethal fast bowling, of brutal but beautiful batsmanship, of languid and liquid fielding, and, above all, a sense of adventure and joyous self-expression - had gone forever.
It ran deeper than the mere on-field performances. The malaise seemed profound. There was a gloomy listlessness both on and off the field, a sense that there is something not right about the whole culture of West Indies cricket. I tried to follow the details of the recurrent disputes between the board and the players, but eventually they blurred into a general sense that there was far too much emphasis on money and not enough on cricket.
So last weekend's triumph by West Indies in the final of the World Twenty20 is, at the very least, a wonderful change to a losing pattern. It is the first West Indies tournament victory on the world stage since their relatively minor ODI tournament win in 2004 in England.
There were encouraging signs at every level - mystery spin, thrilling batting, and captaincy stamped with decency rather than self-interest. And the "reintegration" of Chris Gayle - to borrow a phrase that the ECB use about the return of Kevin Pietersen - has been made to work, however difficult it may have been to achieve. The rumblings of discord between players and management can still be heard in the near distance. But there is nothing like victory to heal old wounds and galvanise a sense of purpose.
But will the West Indian triumph as World T20 champions prove to be a watershed or just a false dawn?
Perhaps we need a little history to place modern West Indies cricket in context. The West Indian teams of the '70s, '80s and early '90s were not just unusually successful. That cricketing dynasty may well have been the greatest international sports team - forget just cricket - ever to take the field. As Michael Holding argued in the film Fire in Babylon: "No other sporting team in any discipline anywhere in the world dominated their sport for 15 years." Holding is a famously modest man with no need to brag about anything. He was just telling the plain truth.
|West Indies should no longer be judged by the standards of the previous generation. Crucially, renewal and revival are sometimes easier when you are free from the burden of expectation
And it wasn't just a case of eleven brilliant individuals. The most extraordinary feature of those West Indian teams was their strength in depth. Indeed, sometimes a single island boasted more fast bowling talent than the rest of the world put together. In 1984, Wayne Daniel, Joel Garner and Malcolm Marshall played the lead role in bowling out Australia. At the same time, on the highly controversial "rebel" West Indian tour of South Africa, Sylvester Clarke, Franklyn Stephenson, Hartley Alleyne and Ezra Moseley bowled out South Africa. All eight fast bowlers weren't just West Indian, they were all from Barbados. One small island could have taken on any team in the world.
So how could a collection of tiny islands in the Caribbean - bound together only vaguely, by geography, a shared university and a single cricket team - dominate a world sport so completely?
The glory days of West Indian cricket benefited from a perfect-storm situation. The formidable standard of club cricket - so memorably described in CLR James' Beyond a Boundary - produced a steady stream of hardened cricketers. The national team also benefited from the looseness of the concept of "nation" itself: West Indians only come together to play cricket. That inter-island rivalry created fierce competition. Speaking to Viv Richards this summer, I was struck by how vividly he described the rivalries within domestic cricket when he was a young player.
And then, of course, there was the much deeper question of the team having a point to prove. Fire In Babylon argues that the racial dimension, the sense that the teams of Clive Lloyd and Viv Richards embodied the struggle of a whole people against colonial oppression, was a central explanation of West Indian success. All these threads - some explicit, some mysterious - were woven together by the leadership of Lloyd and then Richards.
But a perfect storm cannot strike twice. West Indies have to accept that whatever the future looks like, they are highly unlikely to emulate the astonishing dominance of the 1980s. That is not a lack of ambition; it is realism. West Indies can still be a real force in international cricket. But they should no longer be judged by the standards of the previous generation. Crucially, renewal and revival are sometimes easier when you are free from the burden of expectation. Perhaps this West Indies team is finally sufficiently far removed from the glory days to not feel the pain of comparison.
The world game, not just the Caribbean islands, raised a glass to the new T20 world champions. It is wonderful to see them back at top table. We still can't be sure whether this is just a cycle or a real trend. But we at least know that the direction of travel, at long last, is upwards.

2013-2014 Season Preview: No. 24 Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Oct 1, 2013, 10:00 AM EST
All month long, CBT will be rolling out our 2013-2014 season preview. Check back throughout the day, as we'll be posting three or four preview items every day.
To browse through the preview posts we've already published, click here. The rest of our Top 25 Countdown can be found here. For a schedule of our previews for the month, click here.
Last Season: 25-10, 11-7 (Big East); Lost in the Round of 64 to Iowa State
Head Coach: Mike Brey (14th season at Notre Dame: 285-142, 136-79 Big East)
Key Losses: Jack Cooley, Scott Martin
Newcomers: Demetrius Jackson, Steve Vasturia, V.J. Beachem, Austin Torres, Eric Katenda
Projected Lineup
- G: Eric Atkins, Sr.
- G: Jerian Grant, Jr.
- G: Patrick Connaughton, Jr.
- F: Tom Knight, Sr.
- C: Garrick Sherman, Sr.
- Bench: Cameron Biedscheid, So.; Zach Auguste, So.; Demetrius Jackson, Fr.; Steve Vasturia, Fr.; VJ Beachem, Fr.
They'll be good because …: Notre Dame has one of the most talented perimeter attacks in the country. They're led by a pair of veterans in senior Eric Atkins and redshirt junior Jerian Grant, two skilled, athletic playmakers that combined to average 24.5 points and 11.0 assists while shooting 37.2% from three. Throw in top 25 recruit Demetrius Jackson, another talented lead guard, and Mike Brey's club will play quite a bit of small ball.
It's not only the ball handlers, either. Pat Connaughton, who also plays on Notre Dame's baseball team, is a big, physical guard that is a lights-out three-point shooter and can mix it up in the paint when he has to. Throw in big wings Cameron Biedschied, a sophomore, and Steve Vasturia, a freshman, and the Irish should be able to use a lot of four-guard sets. Remember how tough it was to slow down that 2012 Missouri team? Notre Dame could end up looking something like that on the offensive end of the floor.
But they might disappoint because …: Isn't that what Notre Dame does every postseason? Mike Brey was one of the most consistent and most successful coaches in the Big East during his 13 year run in the league, but he hasn't been out of the first weekend of the NCAA tournament since 2003, when the likes of Chris Thomas, Matt Carroll and Torin Francis were still in South Bend. Brey has gotten his team to the tournament six of the last seven seasons with four Round of 64 knockouts and two losses in the Round of 32.
The biggest concern with this group is their front court. Jack Cooley, who was a double-double machine the last two seasons, graduated. That leaves a pair of veterans in Garrick Sherman and Tom Knight as well as sophomore Zach Auguste. Sherman and Knight are solid role players that will throw around their size, but neither will strike fear in the heart of opposing coaches. Auguste is the most talented of the group, but he's not quite ready to be a featured big man. The good news? With Notre Dame's perimeter strength, Brey's trio of bigs won't be asked to do much more than defend, run the floor and crash the glass.
Outlook: This group is perfectly set up to make quite a bit of noise in their first season in the ACC, and I think this is the the that ends Notre Dame's streak of early round tournament exits. Brey isn't exactly running the Burn Offense anymore, but he's still playing a slower brand of basketball. Last season, the Irish used a lot of the shot clock, putting the ball in the hands of their talented playmakers and allowing them to attack the basket, often off of a high-ball screen. (I wouldn't be surprised to see Notre Dame play a quicker tempo this season, however.) With three skilled lead guards and a number of shooters to keep the floor spread, this roster is built for success playing that style.
Yes, the same could have been said about the Irish last season, but there is one key difference: Demetrius Jackson. Grant (36.3 mpg) and Atkins (38.3 mpg) rarely came off the floor last season. With Jackson in the mix this year, those two should be able to get more rest without the Irish offense taking a significant hit. Like any team, there are a number of unknowns with this group, but if Auguste and Biedscheid improve as sophomores (Biedscheid was 7-44 from three in February and March and missed 25 of his last 28 from downtown) and Jackson and Vasturia can have an impact immediately, this could be a top four team in the league.

The Bulletin by Martin Williamson
April 1, 2005
South Africa 2 for 0 trail West Indies 543 for 5 dec (W Hinds 213, Chanderpaul 200*) by 541 runs
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details
How they were out
But if Chanderpaul had led by example with the bat, his decision to declare in fading light as soon as he had flicked Nicky Boje for four to bring up his double hundred was an error. South Africa's openers faced just two balls in the gloom before they were heading back to the pavilion with broad grins on their faces. It was an inevitable end, and it was hard to see why West Indies had not just batted through to the close and added to Graeme Smith's frustration.
On a pluperfect batting track and in front of another good crowd, West Indies had made steady rather than spectacular progress, with the run rate never climbing above three an over. In fairness to South Africa, they looked more on the ball than they had yesterday, but on this batsman-friendly surface it made little difference.
Overnight rain left the playing area too damp for a prompt start, but when play resumed an hour late it was fairly clear that the bowlers were in for another long day. Both Chanderpaul and Wavell Hinds started circumspectly, Hinds taking 20 minutes to add to his overnight 188. A taunt of "Boring, Wavell, that's boring," from Graeme Smith in the slips only stirred him and thereafter he got back into his stride, bringing up his double hundred with a punch behind square on the off. He then played the shot of the match, a classical straight drive off the disappointing Makhaya Ntini.
Chanderpaul began the brighter, flicking the second ball he faced for four, but displayed remarkable concentration in his shot selection, happy to duck bouncers and leave any temptation outside his off stump. He punished anything on his legs as well as unleashing a few sumptuous drives through the covers.
There was no respite for the South Africans as one Hinds was replaced by another, Ryan, who started uncertainly but slowly found his grove. He added 116 with his captain before on 47 he aimed a drive at a flighted ball from Boje but only edged straight to Jacques Kallis at first slip. If Hinds had played well enough to deserve his fifty, Boje had earned the wicket with his perseverance on an unhelpful surface.
As Chanderpaul pressed on, Narsingh Deonarine, the fifth left-hander in the top seven and another making his debut, survived a jittery start and a hostile welcome from Andre Nel and gradually found his touch. The run rate continued to fall as the ball grew soft, and a message came out from Bennett King, the coach, to get things moving.
Then came Chanderpaul's moment of triumph, which nobody would begrudge him in the difficult circumstances surrounding this match. The shame was that seconds later it was followed by the declaration which was so badly timed.
West Indies
Smith c Boucher b Nel 11 (24 for 1) Regulation edge, pouched one-handed in front of first slip.
Ganga c Boucher b Nel 0 (24 for 2) Pushed at a wide one, simple catch at knee-height.
Pagon c Kallis b Nel 35 (106 for 3) Early on a defensive push, skewed to silly mid-off.
W Hinds c Boucher b Langeveldt 213 (390 for 4) Loose off drive edged to wicketkeeper.
R Hinds c Kallis b Boje 48 (506 for 5) Edged attempted drive of flighted ball straight to first slip.

Infinium Labs, the 'maker' of the Phantom video game story, er, console, has actually recently secured new funding. I find this hard to believe, mostly due to the fact that I always thought people could not possibly be so stupid. The project didn't even have a market, it filled no niche; it had nothing unusual or special to warrant its place in our pages. Yet we as an industry jumped on it, then jumped on its lack of innovation, then jumped further on its lack of production.
"Only the Phantom knows"
But "products" are no longer just "launched," they're paper launched or hard launched. Why is it launched if it's still only on paper? To me, that means it is not a product, therefore it doesn't exist, therefore it can't be launched. It might be a good idea, a company might even follow through with producing it… but I'll call it launched when I have it in my hands and you can too.
"A product, last I checked, is the "completed result of a manufacturing process""

Mr. unauthorized access Says
Sep 01, 2013
An unauthorized person was allowed to put a lock on my unit. Even though i filled out a form to not allow anyone access. I was told this was done as a courtesy, but to who??! Now i can not get in MY storage unit. Who allows an unauthorized person to lock someone elses unit?? Why was an ID not requested to confirm who the person entering is?! Now I am locked out of the unit I paid for. This happened at Public Storage in Pasadena - 511 s. Fair oaks.

Tracy Morgan sues Wal-Mart for crash
The lawsuit, filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in New Jersey, claims Wal-Mart was negligent when a driver of one of its tractor-trailers rammed into Morgan's limousine van
|Report an Error
Share via Email
TRENTON, N.J.— Tracy Morgan has sued Wal-Mart over last month's highway crash that seriously injured him and killed a fellow comedian.
The lawsuit, filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in New Jersey, claims Wal-Mart was negligent when a driver of one of its tractor-trailers rammed into Morgan's limousine van. The complaint claims the retail giant should have known the driver had been awake for over 24 hours, and that his commute of 700 miles from his home in Georgia to work in Delaware was "unreasonable." It also alleges the driver fell asleep at the wheel.
"As a result of Wal-Mart's gross, reckless, willful, wanton, and intentional conduct, it should be appropriately punished with the imposition of punitive damages," according to the complaint.
The June 7 wreck on the New Jersey Turnpike killed 62-year-old comedian James McNair, who went by the name Jimmy Mack. Comedian Ardley Fuqua and Jeffrey and Krista Millea, who were injured as passengers in the limo, are also named as plaintiffs.
Morgan, the former "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock" star, suffered a broken leg and broken ribs in the crash and is currently in a rehabilitation center. Fuqua is recovering from crash-related injuries.
Truck driver Kevin Roper, 35, of Jonesboro, Georgia, has pleaded not guilty to death by auto and assault by auto charges. A criminal complaint also accuses him of not sleeping for more than 24 hours before the crash, a violation of New Jersey law.
A report by federal transportation safety investigators said Roper was driving 65 mph in the 60 seconds before he slammed into the limo van. The speed limit on that stretch of the turnpike is 55 mph and was lowered to 45 mph that night because of construction.
Roper had been on the job about 13 ½ hours at the time of the crash, the report concluded. Federal rules permit truck drivers to work up to 14 hours a day, with a maximum of 11 hours behind the wheel.
Morgan, a New York City native, was returning from a standup performance at Dover Downs Hotel & Casino in Delaware when the crash occurred.
Morgan's lawsuit seeks a jury trial and punitive and compensatory damages.
A message seeking comment from Wal-Mart was not immediately returned Saturday. An email seeking comment from Morgan's publicist was not immediately answered.

I remember those lampwork beads, Jeanne! They are gorgeous!!! These colors will work beautifully with them! Do you have any design ideas in mind?
Beautiful pick…instant favorite. Can't wait to see the jewelry!
This is fabulous! I've got to try some of these pieces! Love the brass with these colors too!
Yes – I've posted this picture before.
The green moonstone seems to be the perfect color to enchance the focals. I think i'll just use some brass bead caps and the rice filigree to keep it simple. The African opal is absolutely stunning, but alone appears to wash out the lampwork.
wow – you guys are so much faster than me.
such a quandry – I have schoolwork (yucch) to do before tomorrow
or I could work on this necklace. hmmmmmm…
what's a girl to do?
Yep, those are the ones I remember! Sooooo beautiful and such soft colors! The beads you've chosen to use with them are just perfect, Jeanne! Great pick, BTW!
The eternal dilemma — work vs. beads. Sigh.
Favorite, favorite, favorite! I love this combination!!
I'm gald you posted a picture of the lampwork because I missed it the first time! They're gorgeous and I think your design idea sounds gorgeous too!!
Guess I'm going to have to look into lampwork beads. Not something I've worked with before. Look out pocket book!!! LOL!
This will be a first for me too.
another dilema… I have the 10mm af. opal in my cart for the ridiculous price of 7.38 (full price is 16.80). I just spent a bit in NYC and here during the sale. My expected home parties have been postponed a few weeks, so I don't exactly have a fluid bead income. I have to decide before 11:30. aarrgh!
Sandra, the site is beadgoodies.etsy.com. The artist is Candice Mathewson and she is located in PA. I've purchased lampwork beads from her and they are beautiful!
Jeanne, if you're only talking about $7.38, buy them. It is a great discount. If you've got a ton of other items in your bag, well……could you buy just enough to get the free shipping once you hit $40?
Whoa. Tough decision Jeanne. Been there done that. I feel for you!
I won't encourage you though. Don't want to be the cause of empty pocket book syndrome.
This place is SO darn tempting Arrrgh!!!!!
Yiou know I have more than $40 in my bag. I'll have to pare it down. I'm pretty sure I'm going for it.- they're just so stunning.
btw – I'm working on the necklace
and will post photos soon for suggestions
I'm sorry to hear your home parties have been delayed for now, Jeanne. Good luck with the paring — I do that all the time! LOL
Looking forward to the pix of the necklace!
I've been delayed 'cuz Sam's on line.
Wow this will be gorgeous!
Ok – so I could go with 3 or 4 lampworks…
the benefit to using 3 is I have enough to do another whole necklace!
or I could use all 6 and that pretty much would be all you'll in front
any thoughts?
oops – wrong pictures
there you go
Love the Pick! Love the lampwork beads! I know this will be a wonderful project and I look forward to you showing it to us.
You could do the work now, and play with beads this weekend? Then you can say "Don't bother me, because I worked hard all week and this is ME time!" LOL
My eyes immediately went to the one with the 4 lampworks – It would be gorgeous no matter which way you decided – I love the brass with this as well….I hate dilemnas like this….
you must have been typing while I was posting, Harriet.
The beads are so beautiful on there own, that it really is a quick simple design.
can you see my teacher manual in the background? The beauty of that is I can soon take the schoolbooks out to the pool. LOL
Don't use all 6 in one neckace, Jeanne. First of all, it would be "too much" — you want those gorgeous beads to shine without having to compete with each other. Hope that made sense. Second, as you said, you'll have enough to make 2 necklaces or a necklace and bracelet set. That is, if you decide to start wearing bracelets.
Or I could use four and make matching earrings (if Leigh could handle that) LOL
Actually – the earrings might be too much, but I would have 2 lovely pendants.
If you went with the four lampwork beads in the necklace you could use the other two for earrings – not that you haven't already thought of that…
The brass is perfect with the lampwork bead colors! So are the accent beads you've chosen, Jeanne! I was so caught up in the numbers dilemma that I forgot to tell you that! LOL
It's almost 11 — have you placed your order?
omg Leigh – we are definitely on the same wavelength today!
I have another half hour for the order Lynn – It expires at 11:45. My cart's at $72 so I have some work to do. LOL
Love your pick. Love the lampworks beads and the necklace is gorgeous. (I like the one with three lampwork beads in it).
Oh all of your pieces are beautiful!
I'm with Pam on this one. The beads are gorgeous! and either design works. But they taught us in art classes, and jewelry design, that usually odd numbers work best for the human eye, something about our visual preferences.
That would leave 3 to do other projects.
I really like the ones you posted accidently, too. LOL Those are very pretty! What stones did you use in that design?
The small square spacers look like pyrite?
My fave is the design with 3, Jeanne.
I thought I had said that earlier, but went back to look and realized I never did! LOL
I love the "accidental" photos, also! The smaller spacers do look like pyrite to me. What's the rest?
Thank you Harriet!
I'm going to have to stare at those photos and make a decision eventually. I'm keeping the earrings simple – probably a bead with a cap dangling for a rice filigree or just the bead with a cap.
The other design is posted in the gallery. It's the "Miss Laurie" for our school secretary.
And yes the squares are pyrite.
I thought it looked familiar!
The earring design sounds very pretty!
Three. Three. Three.
Lynn – you are a bad influence. I got my order down to 41.24 and submitted it!
I'll mull over these designs (could go with 5 – that's an odd #) just kidding.
and I must get back to my school work so I have something to share with my colleagues tomorrow.
Thanks all!!!
Moi?!?! If I remember correctly, I only told you to spend the original $7.38…. LOL
Be sure to let us know (3) what you end up (3) deciding on (3) for your design (3), Jeanne!
you also suggested that I could manage to have at least $40 in my cart so I could get free shipping. It's right there in black and white. and really does it make sense to spend $5 to ship one string of beads???
Everything is gorgeous, Jeanne. Glad you got your order in. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
Well, I was just trying to save you the S & H costs…..and since you were probably going to buy the other $33.86 worth of beads anyway…..
Beautiful pick. Those lampwork beads are lovely and so is the necklace.
Your pick is nice and so are your pictures of the necklace. I can't wait for you to post the final design in the gallery. Have you considered a name yet? When I saw your pictures, the first name that came to mind was "In The Limelight".
WOW, Jeanne, I have those EXACT beads bookmarked on my computer! I also found them on Etsy and completely fell in love with them. Then I scrolled back up through the comments on this pick and saw the necklace. Absolutely beautiful, Jeanne. It's a FAV
I love your pick, Jeanne! And WOW, what a discussing you've had without me! BTW I like the one with 4 beads most! He, he!! I checked the shop on etsy, and YES, she has some gorgeous beads there!! Maybe some of them will end up in Norway!
Ooh, I love cream and mint!!
Page!! I am trying not to have a late night snack and here you are talking about mint creams! Oh, cream and mint…is that anything like chocolate mint ice cream? Got to get my mind out of the refrigerator. LOL
Night ladies. It is almost 11:oo here, and it has been a busy day.
OMG! Am I too late to post what a fabulous set this is?? And the pick – instant fav! If I can put my 2 cents in (has anyone else ever noticed that keyboards don't have the cents sign anymore??), I'd go with the 3 lampworks. but whatever you decide, it's going to be simply stunning!
Hey, Sue! I never noticed before that the "cents" sign was a thing of the past! LOL You are very observent…..
And a more observant speller might have noticed how to spell "observant" correctly. ROTFLOL
You are not too late Sue! Thanks for your input. I had to put the piece aside so I could think about it. Right now there are 4 lampworks because that's the last version I did. but the more I look at it that way, it does seem slightly off balance.
Fashion Chick – no name yet – that's my weakness. I'll certainly consider "in the limelight" and I also like Page's mint and cream description. Hmmmm – maybe "creme de menthe"
Ivy – It appears that these are not one of a kind beads. just don't wear them when we're together. LOL
Wenche – these beads are definitely worth it! go for it!
and I was so excited to find the perfect match in the moonstone and brass here at LB!
have a great day everyone!
I'm off to school for a meeting.
This is an absolutely beautiful pick and an instant fave! I love the design you're working with…the brass is the perfect touch for those gorgeous lampwork beads! I vote for three of the lampworks in your design. BTW, I love the "OOPS" necklace, too!
Oh yeah Jeanne – There is another stone out there that is very similar to African Opal in color – Riverstone – and it is much more affordable – I ran across it when I was re-organizing my beads this week,
Riverstone? Where do you find it? Please don't say in a river….. LOL
I bought mine at FMG's – Sorry LB – I have seen it by a zillion different names but this is what it was called when I bought it
Thanks, Leigh! I just Googled it and it's very pretty!
Beautiful pick & beads! I think you should only use 3 for the necklace!
Ivy – Candace posted more of "my" lampwork beads!
Leigh, I will have to check those out. in the meantime, the 10mm's were in today's mail and they are gorgeous.
Thank you Nicole. I do have to finish it now. But something for me for my friend's wedding tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed about the weather. They're having it at a park.

Score from 154 reviews Very good
Location is good and the hotel staff were friendly.
Although the room was a non-smoking room, there was a constant smell of cigarette smoke. The look of the shower floor wasn't very nice. The single room was a bit small.
I enjoyed my stay in this hotel. Staff is very relaxed, services are better than the price paid. Around the hotel you find everything you need, shops, entertainment, taxi stand etc.I would book here again. NB: Even though in the middle of a big city, the room is quiet. Good sleep.
Location Kettle facilities
Too small room
Staff were attentive, made sure my bed was more comfy than from last time. Complimentary water and fruit was most welcome. WiFi receive throughout the building, signal could be stronger though. Excellent overall.
The room
Breakfast was ok.
The room was so small I had difficulty turning around.
Excellent service!!
It's centrally located
Rooms and restaurant need refurbishment. Breakfast is mediocre.
I especially liked the food service.
Location was good, near to the restaurants and main streets. Rooms could be better though. Cleaning was not ideal, some hairs on the carpet. Not the ideal hotel for the people who have a OCD issues. Also the price is rather expensive. But you can enjoy the day and life night on the streets.
Comfort & Cleaning
1) Very nice, polite and friendly personal, specially Mr. Hasan and Ms. Alia made a great work 2) Close to downtown and several nice restaurants around
1) Key-Card for opening the door (of room), was terrible, I think it was made from very cheap material, "everynight" has to be re-programmed, never seen like that before. 2) In some Suit-rooms Jacuzzy does not work 3) Breakfast ; Mr. Cook needs training for making Omelet
I had to book a hotel on the same day and it was very expensive. Staff upgraded my booking and they were super friendly and helpful but compare to other hotels it was very expensive.
Good location close to several embassy, not far from Kizilay where you can take the bus or metro. Good, helpful and friendly staff.Good breakfast.
Wifi is slow and disconnects.They don't replace tea and coffee in the room, but they immediately provided them when complained. Loud noise from a night club in front of the hotel.
Only breakfast is nice.
smaal rooms and uncomfortable beds. weak WIFI. location is very bad as the area is full of bad girls and nightclubs. I do not reommend this city for tourism at all.
the location services
Internet Connection is very poor
I loved the view & calmness of my room
location is great
but employees are not educated/professional enough if we call this is a Business hotel!
Rich breakfast location value for money
Minor things only, such as no glasses in the room, smell of the soap
Good Location Relatively good service
I asked for non-smoking room! but the room still had a bad smell of cigarettes!
Location is excellent
Room was very small.
poor air conditioning
The atmosephere at morning at resturant was amazing with nice music. Breakfast was good too.
the furniture is a bit old

Better Off Dead Maryland - The 8x10 Club - 11/7/2014
By Brian Willis
Better Off Dead Maryland made their triumphant return to a packed 8x10 Club in Baltimore on Friday night Nov 7th, performing a nearly 3 hour show to the delight of their rapidly growing base of Dead-icated fans. This is an outstanding group of musicians who are able to evoke the feel of a Grateful Dead show in a way that few others have achieved. To a great extent, the band mirrors the classic 6 man lineup of the Grateful Dead with the one-two power punch of drummers Andrew Ellinghaus and Robert Gersten coupled with the bombastic bass riffs of John Butte creating a formidable rhythm section that provides the framework for the rest of the band to build upon. New to the band is Chris Gagen on keyboards, who plays beautifully and whose style of playing fits very well with the band. Rex Wilkes fits the role of "band leader" like a glove with his unique vocal style and undeniable charm. And then there is lead guitarist Alex DiPietro. His playing is pure and inspired - he doesn't engage in stage theatrics, he puts his head down and becomes one with his instrument, unleashing sweet jams and soaring solos that would make Jerry Garcia proud to have inspired. And he even bears a passing resemblance to that legend in his younger years. Better Off Dead Maryland is a hot band that is already filling venues with sold out (or near sold out) crowds wherever they play. This is definitely a must see - and must dance to - band!

This band is high energy, lots of fun, and full of the unexpected. Pink Floyd's "Time" and Michael Jackson's "Thriller" done with a bluegrass vibe? Why yes indeedy--- more please! Dani Weissman on the fiddle is a treat beyond description while Greg DeHaas keeps the show jumping with his vocals and driving rhythm guitar work. Greg Nelson on bass and Greg Herb on drums provide a steady - and sometimes funky beat while Will Crowther cooly plays sweet solos that provide the final puncuation mark to their sound. This wasn't just a tasty show - it was freakin' delicious! Swamp Donkey Newgrass is a very talented band with a unique sound and approach to making something more than your usual bluegrass... they've created NEWGRASS! This is a really fun band that will definitely get your feet movin'! Check them out on the web at http://www.swampdonkeynewgrass.com/

Larry Keel has had a fantastic 2014 and is excited to celebrate with you! Some highlights include his appearance with Sam Bush at this year's Lockn' Festival and he's been on tour with Yonder Mountain String Band throughout South east, Mid West, North East this fall. He'll be heading to Puerto Morelos, Mexico w/ all the Bluegrass buddies to play Strings and Sol in Mexico in mid-Dec. Also, stay tuned for more information on an upcoming studio release due out in the spring of 2015 with some very special guests!
Larry Keel is described by some reviewers as the most powerful, innovative and all-out exhilarating acoustic flatpicking guitarist performing today. Keel has absorbed the best lessons from his Bluegrass family upbringing, both sides deeply steeped in the rich mountain music culture and heritage of Southwest Virginia. From there, he has always integrated that solid musical grounding and natural-born talent with his own incomparable approach to flatpicking the guitar and composing original music. He's also got a knack for choosing interesting and appealing material from all realms of music with guts, whether it's a tune written by a fellow songwriter/musician friend, or a tasty cover from any number of genres all over the map.
Keel has a variety of musical formats swirling around the calendar each year: look out for his core band, The Larry Keel Experience (featuring Will Lee on soulful, blues-grass 5 string banjo, penetrating vocals and exceptional song-writing contributions and Jenny Keel on upright bass, with impeccable timing, solid yet imaginative bass lines and vocal harmonies). "Hot and fluent bluegrass act showcasing Larry Keel's dazzling guitar skills and gruff, baritone vocals, wife Jenny's granite-firm bass guitar work... Good folks, amazing roots music," writes Tad Dickens with the Roanoke Times.
Other projects of Keel's include Larry Does Jerry (Keel performing the music of Jerry Garcia), Keller Williams and The Keels, Keel paired with artists such as Drew Emmitt, Danny Barnes, Peter Rowan, Sam Bush, and a multitude of guest spots in great bands on the tour circuit including the Traveling McCourys, Steep Canyon Rangers, Infamous Stringdusters, and Greensky Bluegrass.
The versatility of his talents is pretty irresistible, and has earned Keel the highest respect and billing among the top acoustic musicians alive, and some now gone: Tony Rice, Chris Thile, Vassar Clements, Sam Bush, Del McCoury, John Hartford, Bill Monroe, Peter Rowan, and Darol Anger to name a few. And his fierce, high-spirited energy also appeals to young rockers, jammers and alt country pickers and fans who are equally drawn to Keel's deep rumbling voice, his earthy and imaginative song-writing, and his down-home-gritty-good-time charm. Keel regularly collaborates with JamBand and Rock giants Yonder Mountain String Band, Keller Williams, Jorma Kaukonen, David Nelson, Little Feat, Rebirth Brass Band, Dirty Dozen Brass, Railroad Earth, members of String Cheese Incident and Leftover Salmon, amongst others.
Throughout his career, Keel has released 14 albums and is featured on 10 others. The most recent release, March 2012, is CLASSIC, the 3rd album recorded by Keel and his powerhouse ensemble, Natural Bridge. The project is filled with originals written variously by Keel, the band members or by musician/song-writer friends. "Classic is not a derivative work stuck in the quagmire of a romanticized past. It's forward-thinking, spontaneous, audacious, and full of surprises. Fresh. All the Keel's are doing is watering the seeds the old Masters planted and widening the Circle a little bit," writes Robert Kimmel with Bluegrass Today.
For Keel the musical mission is always clear: to let technical skill, honest emotion and fearlessness connect the playing and singing to audiences, to entertain and to thoroughly enjoy the experience of creating and sharing in music.
