"Excellent hotel in Century city"
I actually booked it by mistake. I was to book the one in Hollywood...I didn't find the mistake until getting off the plane at 12:30 pm. The hotel said it can't be cancelled because it's already paid on Expedia. I called Expedia then and the nice staff helped me negotiate with the hotel that I'll have to pay for the first night for cancellation. Can't […] complain much because I found it late... Anyway, hotel is good and staff are very nice. Front desk would have options for tours and entertaining. I would strongly recommend for the service. We had a 2 queen beds room and it's comfortable and clean. The separate air conditioner is a little noisy but OK. Room has a microwave but we didn't have a chance to use.

"Great location."
Great location. Not sure why the rooms have lofts for sleeping. It certainly would not work for older couplesGenuine Expedia guest review
"Great location, helpful staff and delicious breakf"
Location is great. Staff is nice and helpful. Breakfast provides a nice mix of hot items such as eggs and fantastic cinnamon rolls. My room had a spiral staircase to a loft and the bed. I would prefer not to have an upstairs and downstairs and I was a little worried about having to navigate the stairs at night -- a dark room and unfamiliar surroundings. […] But it was a decent price and good location. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Overnight stay to visit daughter and granddaughter"
Very good. The room was fairly spacious and the front desk staff, both at ckeck-in and check-out, were very solicitous and helpful. I would definitely stay there again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Only reason I am not giving an overall 4 is because of the horrible noise level from the road. Our room faced the street, it was as if we were in the middle of LA traffic at all times. Other than that the hotel was clean , good location , nice staff . The daily free breakfast was very good. If you decide to stay there ask for a room facing the back […] side/alley that may be less noisy. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Working Hard"
The noise from the street and other guests kept me awake all night. Maybe rooms on the opposite side is OK, but I don't want to go back to this hotel.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Convenient and reasonable price"
Staff was very pleasant and helpful. My tv did not work and they tried to fix it and offered to move me to another room. Breakfast was "hot" and, while limited, was pleasant although the seating area was very small. Elevator was slow but a very pleasant visit although next to a major road could be noisy at times.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good but..."
Shower was alternating between hot and cold.. Hot for a few minutes, then got cold, then back to hot again. Also, the nightstand had a pair of silicone breast enhancements, those things women place between their breasts and bras for a more 'fuller' look. Took pictures, told the front desk, they removed them.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to action, but noisy traffic at rush hours."
The hotel was nice and close to most everything. It was just noisy during rush hours though. You could hear the traffic even with the window closed. We were out most of the day so it didn't matter too much, but you couldn't sleep in if you wanted to.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great stay and great value for price"
With the exception of the old elevator, everything else was spot-on. This relatively small hotel was exactly what we needed for our family vacation. Unless I'm lucky to get THE rooms from the pictures, my two rooms looked exactly like in the photos. The only thing that can be improved is the elevator.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"sad , sad excuse for a breakfast and stay."
they said it came with breakfast; but they were out of eggs and bacon at 7:50. There was not any seating to enjoy coffee. i asked for directions to the freeway and was given a 25 minute detour through town, which was not the shortest or easiest route. the night clerk was helpful.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice Hotel"
Pleasantly surprised. Convenient location and pleasant environment. Met our needs.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Century City Trip"
Friendly and helpful staff. New facility good locationGenuine Expedia guest review
"Hard to sleep with road noise"
Room was right on Olympic, which Expedia I true does not make clear is a very large and loud road. Walls are thin, and you can here the rumble of every passing car. Overall, I was looking for a clean, no frills hotel, but this disappointed even based on that expectation.Genuine Expedia guest review
"great location great hotel"
very satisfied with hotel and serviceGenuine Hotels.com guest review
The stay was fine....the billing, however, has been a nightmare. I have been overcharged X3 for parking (a fee they do not tell you about when booking), and there are mysterious charges upwards of $400 when everything was paid before we arrived and we only stayed ONE night. I checked out only owing the aforementioned parking and I see additional room […] charges on my card the next day. It has been very frustrating. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Surprise and friendly Holiday Inn Express in LA"
This Holiday Inn Express is an outstanding property with friendly, cordial and helpful staff, good location and exceptionally clean facilities. The rooms that face Olympic are terribly noisy from street traffic, even with the windows closed, but worth it for convenience and location. Easy to access from the major freeways, and short drive to the sites. The […] wi-fi was a bit spotty in the room at times, but the furnishings were great. Clean, fresh sheets, nice pillows, and great big, clean bathroom. The sofa bed needs to be replaced as the springs are a bit worn for just watching TV or reading. The breakfast is quite good, with pancakes, cinnamon buns and hot eggs and bacon. Good value ! It;s nice to have a small refrigerator, ice and microwave, as there is a grocery store right across the street for in-room meals and snacks. Good find and great value ! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Excellent Experience"
Room was clean, quiet and safe. Hotel staff extremely accommodating.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Room was noisy, on the street. Room dark and dingy Beds lumpy. Very disappointed for the money.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Stay! I'd book again!"
Rosie at the front desk is very professional, sweet and quick on her feet. Great smile. Made all the difference in the world. We liked the location across from Ralphs, liked our free breakfast, free Wi-fi, and free use of the a computer and printer which came in handy when printing our LAX Boarding passes. Every thing was very clean. Every staff member […] friendly and nice. The ladies handling the breakfast even took pictures for us twice. Three other nice added touches, remote control AC/Heating, DOWN comforters and a big screen TV. Definitely putting this Hotel on my list of must stay places in the County. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very clean hotel/helpful staff"
Breakfast area is not accessible most of the time due to overcrowded/limited spacing. Limited area attractions. Not very family oriented. No pool or fitness area. Difficult to exit onto main road heading west due to traffic, no traffic light. Otherwise, very clean and comfortable hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Well located if you have a car"
Hotel was good and price reasonable compared to others. If you have a car and plan to drive around LA, go to the beaches, etc. the location is fine. Room has a good space.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
We love holiday inn express, but were a little frustrated when there was only obligatory valet parking for an extra $15 night. (Permit parking only on the street.)Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Friendly hotel"
My room was neither spartan nor luxurious, but contained absolutely everything I could ask for. The staff was very friendly and helpful and my room was very clean.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Large Rooms"
Good locatıon. Noise from other rooms. Parking charge is 15USD. Moderate breakfast for free. Rooms with a huge flat tv. Sheets changed everyday.Genuine Expedia guest review
"A hotel with little to offer"
I made this reservation at the last minute and regretted the decision all weekend. This hotel has an incredible lack of amenities and comfort. It is situated on a very noisy 6 lane street that never seems to quiet down. I was awakened frequently by guests upstairs walking in their room because the floors squeaked. Nothing to do in the neighborhood, […] no exercise room, no lobby except for the desk by the front door. A motel 6 experience at a hilton price. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Old Hotel, New Hotel Price"
Overall, the hotel was clean and quite. The beds weren't that great. The internet would not work for more than 10 or 15 minutes. You also had to pay for parking. The staff was very helpful and nice. The breakfast was really good and included.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great service but some missing amenities"
Troy at the desk was exceptional. Went out of his way to help and do whatever he could to make my stay a positive one. The sweet lady who helped with breakfast was terrific too. Always a smile and warm hello. Some of the hotel amenities, however, were problematic. I couldn't get on the internet at all and my TV wouldn't turn on or off unless I struggled […] with the power switch for a good three minutes. No one ever came to fix it although Troy did offer to change my room. That said, the hotels in the area are way overpriced, and this one was a lot less. The area was very busy but convenient to the conference I was attending, and there's a great market across the street. I really did have a nice stay. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"OK, but smokey."
The location was good, walking distance to the Westside Shopping Center and close to my meetings in West LA. Overall the staff were friendly, valet was reasonable at $15 a day, and they were quick. On the down side, the room had a strong cigarette smoke smell that seemed to come from outside in the hall and pervaded the room, for both days I was there, […] even though it was a non smoking room and floor. There were also noises from the air conditioner that were annoying, but this was not too loud. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
Very old building, lots of water damage, very damp and clammy feeling, mold in bathrooms. Management was the nasty icing on an absolutely disgusting cake. Moved between three rooms- soaking wet carpet in the first, nonfunctioning electronics and flickering lights in the second, mold in the third! I finally left. Expected to see REDRUM on a wall... Can't […] recommend it. I feel bad for the general employees- it must be miserable. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Convenient location and price/benefit ratio"
The hotel met my expectations and more. I am picky about breakfast, but wasn't disappointed because I had no expectation. They offer the traditional fare at this type of hotels. I was, however, quite satisfied with the spacious room and the relatively quite location, all things considered.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"What a bargain!"
I was in town for a business conference being held at the Hyatt in Century Plaza. The Holiday Inn Express is in easy walking distance of the conference hotel (about 15 minutes) and the shopping mall, which was very convenient. It is just a short cab ride away from other sites in the area. The hotel itself was modern and clean. The room had a sizable […] mini-fridge and a microwave, which was an added plus. Some reviewers commented that rooms overlooking Olympic Ave. were very noisy. I found that to be true when the windows were open, but once they were closed, I could barely hear anything outside. I actually liked having the option to open the windows at all and let some fresh air in when I was out! The breakfast is definitely a notch above most other hotels in this price range. Each day there was biscuits and gravy, meat, and an egg dish. There were also yogurts, fruits, cereals, and hot cinnamon rolls and a pancake maker. The employee responsible for maintaining the breakfast was very pleasant and did an excellent job of keeping up with the demand and keeping the area clean. The staff was very helpful at check-in, with calling cabs,directions, etc. My only complaint is that the website indicated that this hotel has a fitness room, which is untrue. The clerk explained to me that they previously had a relationship with a fitness center, but not anymore. This should be removed from the list of amenities. All in all, I highly recommend this hotel!

"Review of Holiday Inn Express Olympic Boulevard LA"
It was generally good. No convenient parking on street however so parked in hotel facility for $15. Breakfast was in a small room for about 8 people, so would be better if a larger room was set aside as not enough space for more people. Enough food for a continental breakfast, plus it served pancakes.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Decent overall"
The one problem I had was with the air conditioning. It apparently had to either be off (which left the room uncomfortably warm) or blowing directly on the bed (which was also uncomfortable). The shower was so small there wasn't room for a soap tray. TV was very good, free wi-fi, and the breakfast was surprisingly good.Genuine Expedia guest review
"No more,,,"
It was so noisy in my room, especially I could hear almost everything from the next room. At the check-out time, the front desk guy had really bad manners, even no greeting.Genuine Expedia guest review
this hotel is too noisy because the road (w. olympic blvd) is near. Perhaps they have to double the window glass...Genuine Expedia guest review
"Practical and reasonable"
On the edge of Beverley Hills - it's not that close to things however it's practical, reasonable priced and a lot quieter than the hotel next door as many rooms face away from the road. Probably one of the more reasonably balanced hotels in the area.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Convenient Location"
We stayed there for 2 nights while visiting LA with family. We wanted a location that had convenient access to the sites and this location worked well. The hotel staff are super friendly and helpful. We received upgrade to loft room which was great with the kids. Breakfast area is very small and busy so get there early if you can. Parking was extra […] and valet only but reasonable. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Pleasant good value hotel"
My stay was perfect, they room was beautiful and new. Pros: - high quality room - good price for the region (Beverly Hills) - includes breakfast, which you can even take with you (nothing fancy) Cons: - to get around, you need either a car or shuttle - paid parking $18/night. You can try to park on the street, but there was no place when I was there. I […] rented a car and had a nice stay. It's fast to drive to Hollywood, the beach etc. Recommended. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Met all Expectations"
A very pleasant stay - comfortable rooms and good service. Car parking was a bit expensive but the (nice) inclusive breakfast made up for it. I wouldn't normally rate any place as excellent, but for the value offered, we were very happy.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great location for Fox Studios and Century City"
Stayed two days visiting family in the area. Staff very friendly and accommodating. I had a quiet room facing away from the main street, very comfortable (but only plastic cups available in the room - no glass). Ralf's grocery store across the street for most needs. Available breakfast was good.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not for the vacationer but ok for the businessman"
The restaurant area for breakfast is quite deceiving. The photos online show a large spacious area for buffet breakfast but it is quite cramped and variety is limited. If you're into a quick coffee and toast this is perfect for you. If you listened to the front desk clerk and were waiting for bacon and eggs you will get it... just not in the way you […] normally would (very strange layout of breakfast) Aside from the eating, it was as the name provides, an 'express' hotel, which was clean, hot shower, bed and valet service. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Centrally located"
Hotel room was clean, comfortable and roomy enough. Breakfast great, friendly, helpful staff. Shopping mall four blocks away. A couple of miles from Rodeo Drive district, some could walk but too far for others and about a 10 minute drive to Hollywood Blvd. Would definitely stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"great service, hotel only negative is location"
hotel location is okay but you must be willing to walk or catch public buses ($1.50 per trip or $5 for a day pass), otherwise it is very expensive to be catching taxi's. the hotel was clean, the breakfast was great, the staff were great the only negative thing about this hotel was its location in realtion to beverly hills, hollywood and downtown L […] A.

O hotel não é perto de nada, a não ser q vc esteja de carro. Me colocaram num quarto com janela p rua, q de manhã, logo cedo, é um barulho incessante de carro. Ao chegar no hotel, a recepcionista já foi logo tentando me enfiar pacotes de turismo. Fazia tudo com tanta pressa q não me deixou nem ler o q estava assinando. Paguei uma diária de duas suítes. […] No dia seguinte, eu iria precisar de apenas mais um quarto para tomar banho, já que iríamos p o aeroporto a tarde. A maldita não me deixou falar direito. Disse q eu tinha q resolver com o Expedia. Resultado, me fizeram pagar por mais uma diária de cada quarto só para tomar banho. Paguei 500 dólares para tomar banho!!!!!!! Não recomendo mesmo!!!!

Lizard puts man in the shade with ability to walk on water
Thursday 28 March 1996
Dr J W Glasheen and T A McMahon, of Harvard University, captured seven basilisk lizards in Costa Rica and put them (literally) through their paces in a glass water tank in the laboratory. These lizards are well known for their ability to "run" on water - not swimming, but not sinking either.
In fact, the researchers found that the lizards do not run on the water. They do slap their feet down flat on to the surface, but most of the support for their weight comes from bubbles of air sucked in behind the foot as it strokes downwards like a swimmer in the water.
The lizards get their feet out quickly, before the air bubbles collapse. They move at such a speed they can lift their legs and continue across the water before the cavity of air disappears.
But the ability to run across water is bought at an enormous expenditure of energy. The little lizards, which weigh just 90g, have to develop a mechanical power of about 29 watts per kilogram of bodyweight. The maximum sustained output that a human being can manage - say a fell runner going uphill - is about 20 watts per kilogram.
The lizards have such powerful backlegs the researchers estimate they could manage 135 watts per kilogram and that "at least 21 per cent of the basilisk's body mass is involved in powering hind limb motion".
Humans are also stopped from running across water by the size and shape of our feet and legs, and the maximum speed with which we can run. To move on before each bubble of air collapsed, a human water runner would need to stroke downwards through the water at almost 30 metres a second - beyond human ability.

Taxpayer will own nearly half of super-bank
Monday 12 January 2009
Taxpayers are set to own almost half of the "super-bank" created from Lloyds TSB's rescue takeover of HBOS, the two banks confirmed today.
The offer of £13 billion in new shares from the duo to strengthen their finances was all but snubbed by existing investors - leaving the Treasury to buy them up.
This will leave the taxpayer owning around 43.4 per cent of the new Lloyds Banking Group, which is due to gain court approval in Edinburgh today and begin trading next week.
The share offerings by the pair were spurned because the price of the new shares had fallen well below the level at which they are currently trading.
HBOS said just 0.24 per cent of the 7.5 billion shares it offered to raise £8.5 billion were taken up. Lloyds TSB saw just 0.5 per cent of its 2.6 billion new shares to raise £4.5 billion bought by existing investors.
Based on Friday's closing prices, the taxpayer is sitting on combined losses of around £3.5 billion on its stakes in both companies.
Lloyds TSB chief executive Eric Daniels said: "We are pleased that the capital-raising process has completed and that the new, combined group will have a strong financial position.
"We understand that many existing shareholders did not participate because of the divergence between the offer price and the current market price."
The Government has also invested a further £4 billion in the two banks in return for preference shares. These come with conditions such as a ban on bonuses while they are still held by the Treasury.
The tie-up - brokered as HBOS became increasingly vulnerable in last autumn's financial crisis - will be one of the sector's biggest ever deals.
Alongside its stake in Lloyds-HBOS, the Government is also a majority shareholder in stricken Royal Bank of Scotland - owning almost 60 per cent of the bank. These shareholdings will be overseen by a new public company, called UK Financial Investments (UKFI).
Mr Daniels added: "We will look forward to working with UKFI, now that it has become a shareholder in the group pursuant to completion of the proposed acquisition.
"The objective of the new group will be to build a strong franchise and create value for all of our shareholders."

With crime dropping in Toronto the police budget needs cuts: Editorial
With crime dropping in Toronto and across Canada the police budget needs to be cut. This should be a top priority of the new chief.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Judging from the latest crime statistics, Torontonians are safer than they've been in years. So why does the cost of policing keep soaring, especially in Canada's biggest city?
There's a variety of reasons, such as extra expenses associated with policing one of the world's most multicultural urban areas. But other more difficult-to-excuse factors include over-paid staff due to exceptionally generous labour agreements, a flawed arbitration system that pumps up costs, and weak politicians who fail to resist police demands for more dollars.
This finally appears to be changing. Toronto's police budget is fast approaching $1 billion, making it the city's largest single cost. And Chief Bill Blair's failure to find significant savings is thought to be the main reason his contract hasn't been renewed.
Politicians taking office after the Oct. 27 municipal election should firmly support measured cuts in the police budget. And a significant budget reduction should be at the top of the agenda for whoever becomes the next chief, especially in light of declining crime.
As reported by the Star's Wendy Gillis, gunfire involving injuries in Toronto, as of Aug. 31, is down 23 per cent from 2013. And there were just 28 homicides. That's a 30-per-cent drop since last year and far fewer than the 51 people slain by Aug. 31 in 2005 — this city's notorious Summer of the Gun. All that is just part of much a longer trend toward lower crime.
Toronto police credit some of the good news to the effectiveness of their crime fighting efforts, and with good reason. An increased emphasis on community policing has paid dividends. But dramatically lower rates of major crime are evident far beyond Toronto and simply can't be explained by local police tactics. Theories abound, but an aging population appears to be the biggest factor behind a continent-wide drop in serious crime.
In light of this, there should be considerable room for savings. Given that about 90 per cent of police department spending goes to salaries and benefits, a staff cut seems in order. It will be necessary to take a hard line on wages in upcoming contract talks with the police union. And the province's arbitration system — which kicks in when police negotiations are deadlocked — requires major reform.
Binding arbitration, as it's currently done, results in contracts that are more generous to unions than other collective bargaining. In an opinion piece in the Star, commentator Michael Warren suggests several possible reforms including a provision that Queen's Park require arbitrators to consider the ability of cities to pay when rendering a decision. These deserve action.
When police budgets are needlessly allowed to soar, in Toronto and elsewhere, it saps funding for other city services, including those helping the impoverished, children and others in serious need. And that's not a welcome trade-off.

Naturist London's Sunday Swim
University of London Union, every Sunday
Not too sure which bikini you prefer? Or maybe those trunks don't look as good on you as they did on Channing Tatum. Why bother? Naturist London's Sunday Swim is a regular event with no booking or membership required, just strip off and dive in. Here naturists, or those who just fancy a skinny dipping session without having to trek to a nudist beach, can get naked and get swimming. The perfect pre-Sunday roast dip. Those who want a more leisurely bask in the sun can head to the only official naked sunbathing area in London, the banks of the men's swimming pond on Hampstead Heath. Unfortunately it's men-only but women can sunbathe topless at the ladies' pond. A python was recently found in the water so naked swimming is not recommended.

Shelf Nunny - 'I Feel So Good About Myself' [Track of the Day]
Shelf Nunny has unveiled 'I Feel So Good About Myself', the first track to be taken from his forthcoming EP, Dream Album. The Santa Cruz producer may have chosen a very optimistic title, but the half arrogance, half hard-sought self-belief is applauded because Shelf Nunny should be feeling good - this is a wonderful track.
The samples have a natural aura about them, with the tickling strings, muffled vocal and industrial-sounding rain shaker ripping through the cascading beat. A scowling synth heightens towards the end, keeping with the earthly theme as it bares some resemblance to a suspicious meow. 'I Feel So Good About Myself' gives a rush of prospective excitement for Shelf Nunny's new EP.

Bomb Shelter (empty) 370.

TEL AVIV -- When the first two sirens went off, Shoshana Leshaw ran from her second-floor bedroom down to the bomb shelter in the basement. By the time the third and fourth sirens wailed, she went no farther than the stairwell."It's almost like you're sick of the sirens interrupting your sleep," Leshaw said. "You just want to get it over with and go back to what you're doing."Fifteen air-raid sirens in total rang out in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba on the night of Nov. 14, the first night of Israel's Operation Pillar of Defense aimed at bringing an end to Palestinian rocket fire from Gaza. The sirens repeatedly woke Leshaw, a junior at Queens College in New York, and most of the 25 other study-abroad students at Ben-Gurion University.They were among the thousands of young Americans who come to Israel each year to study or work, but found themselves instead scurrying for cover last week as Hamas rained missiles on Israel.Students said they never feared for their physical safety; they had been trained on how to react in the event of a missile strike. But many said that living in cities targeted by missiles gave them a new appreciation of the realities of life in Israel, and some found themselves quickly copying the casual approach to war that Israelis have cultivated over decades of living under military threat from their neighbors.In Tel Aviv with Oranim-Israel Way, an internship program, Stephen Fox was surprised to find his Israeli co-workers joking about the missiles. After a while, though, he found himself thinking of the sirens as a fire drill. A few days after last week's bus bombing in Tel Aviv, Fox, 23, boarded his bus to work without a second thought."Halfway through it I was like, 'Should I be taking the bus?' " he said. "It didn't even occur to me. The restaurants and bars were still going, people were out shopping. It was like normal."Oranim, which has a division in the southern city of Ashdod, brought all of its participants to Tel Aviv after fighting broke out. One participant left the program and four others returned home for two weeks with plans to come back. Michal Ben-Ari, Oranim's Tel Aviv coordinator, said one of the week's biggest challenges was reassuring parents that their children were safe."Parents told us, 'I don't see anything on the news, so I'm imagining the worst,' " Ben-Ari said." As soon as we gave them information on what was going on in Tel Aviv, they felt a lot better."Other programs with students in southern Israel also took measures to remove them from the path of incoming rockets. The day after Pillar of Defense began, Ben-Gurion's study-abroad program took students on a trip to Masada, then relocated them to Sde Boker, another Ben-Gurion campus out of rocket range. Program staff quickly arranged for students to continue coursework there -- if necessary for the rest of the semester."You're not just bored, but you feel like you can't change things," said Abby Worthen, a University of Pennsylvania student taking her junior year abroad. "We felt like there was nothing we could do, and that was hard."Worthen, like other students, was shaken the first time she heard a siren -- a feeling she said separated the study-abroad students from their Israeli classmates, many of whom were reservists called to serve in the Israeli army."I'm almost jealous of Israelis," Worthen said. "They have this way about them that's calm and rational, and I don't. On some level it's a lot more intense for them because they have a stake in it, [but] it wasn't as meaningful to them because this is sort of run of the mill."Even programs considered safely out of range were impacted by the fighting. Nativ, a Conservative post-high school program in Jerusalem, prohibited participants from traveling to Israel's South or metropolitan Tel Aviv, both areas targeted by rockets. Oranim asked its participants to notify staff whenever they left Tel Aviv. Often stuck at home, the Americans turned to talking politics -- too much, according to Fox."I definitely learned a lot more about Israel and the Gaza conflict, but talking about it 24-7, there wasn't that much news that could sustain conversation," he said. "So we found ourselves rehashing the same conversations, so it got a little exhausting."The intense focus on the fighting, though, reminded Worthen of the physical and emotional distance between Israel and the United States."It's so hard listening when there are real things going on in the world, that Hostess is going out of business," she said, referring to news last week of the snack maker's demise. "I had to remember that there are other things in the world."

Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard has visited Bundaberg, New South Wales, the city hit hardest by severe floods caused by the tail-end of Cyclone Oswald.
Six people have been killed by the flooding since Tuesday, when water engulfed around 2,000 homes and 7,500 residents were evacuated.
Gillard, who is at the start of a re-election campaign, announced extra disaster funding for people in the most stricken areas of the city.
Officials are still searching for missing people and trying to help those stranded.
Elsewhere, authorities said they were relieved that much of New South Wales appeared to have escaped the worst. But debris continues to wash up on beaches across the state.

Missionary daughter pranks dad with fake marriage proposal
"It was so hard. I had talked to him on the phone a week before, and he asked about the mission process, if I had put any more thought into it, and I just sort of changed the subject," Sarah said. "I almost gave something away and just changed the subject to my dating life."
But the day finally came when Munafo's mission call arrived at her parents' home in Elizabeth, Colo. She quickly texted her dad to set up a Skype date, and reminded him that she would be with a boy and that they had a question for him.
"I dropped hints, I had been texting (my dad) a couple days prior. I said things like, 'Make sure you're not wearing a bathrobe for our Skype date because there is going to be a handsome guy sitting next to me,' " Sarah said.
Because of the hints, her father was worried and even said a prayer before the Skype call.
"I was concerned before it started," James said. "When I heard that it was a boy and that the boy wanted to talk, that was kind of concerning."
Rebecca relayed that having not heard anything about this boy also added stress to the situation.
James knew nothing about the boy in question, but he and Rebecca eventually sat down to Skype with their daughter, and began talking with Jason, the boy sitting next to Sarah. After some small talk, Jason started asking questions to get better acquainted with James, who slowly became uncomfortable and had no idea the entire conversation was being filmed.
While much of her dad's reaction was what Sarah expected, she was surprised with how concerned and anxious he became.
"He adjust his collar, and he avoids eye contact, and he just kind of looks down and has this serious face and even does this eyebrow raise," Sarah said. "So I was expecting all that, kind of, not the collar adjustment that he does. That was really funny. I started laughing when he did that. And he was avoiding eye contact a lot more, and he looked like he was going to start sweating."
It finally came to a point in the conversation where James asked what the big question was. Jason slyly took his time before saying he really wanted to ask him, "Where do you think your daughter will go on her mission?" Rebecca then pulled out Sarah's mission call.
"I took it pretty seriously," James told the Deseret News. "It was a painful experience, but it ended fantastically."
The sudden mix of emotions caught James off guard and provided the response that Sarah had hoped for.
"I was almost in shock because of the turn around and the setup. It was humorous to me too. It took me awhile to recover. I guess I had several different emotions flowing through my body — both relief and absolute ecstasy that she had done that. And also appreciating that she would play that on me," James said.
Once he came to grips with the situation, James was able to express his excitement.
"We're just really happy that she got called on a mission and that she wanted to do this, that it was the right thing for her," James said.
Because of his previous teasing, Rebecca said that it was something her husband could take.
"So the back story is that he kind of deserved it. You know, the prank just made it really funny that he had to sit there while this guy was going to propose," Rebecca said.
Sarah eventually opened her mission call, and she is assigned to serve in the West Indies Mission.
"I was so excited, my arms were shaking when I was opening it," Sarah said. "I'm definitely excited to explain the gospel to people."
As for James, he couldn't be more proud of Sarah for having taken her own time to make the decision and for the service she will provide.
"I think the world needs or could use that special touch of a sister missionary," James said. "The sister missionaries, in my experience, they were the missionaries that were dedicated and did so much. They touched people that the elders weren't able to touch, and maybe even the seniors weren't able to touch. Sarah has some special abilities, as do all of these wonderful young men and young women who go out there and touch lives."
The video of James' reaction was posted on YouTube and has more than 1,000 views.

Kitcatt Nohr Digitas lands £5m Dogs Trust
By Sara Kimberley, campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 31 January 2013 08:00AM
Dogs Trust has appointed Kitcatt Nohr Digitas to handle its £5 million integrated account.
The agency picked up the business without a pitch and will be responsible for developing the charity's CRM, TV, print and direct marketing activity.
Dogs Trust has previously worked with Ogilvy.
The agency was behind Dogs Trust's most recent campaign to reposition its rehoming centres as high-quality and caring places. The work won a silver at the 2012 DMA Awards.
Kitcatt Nohr's appointment comes at a difficult time for charities. A report published in November 2012 showed UK charitable donations dropped by a fifth last year.

Men's golf team makes move
AUSTIN, Texas — Freshman Jacob Allenback shot an even-par 72 on Tuesday to help the Colorado State University-Pueblo men's golf team move up five spots in the team standings after the second day of the NCAA Division II South Central/West Super Regional, which concludes today at Grey Rock Golf Club.
Allenback, who shared team-best scoring honors with Sean Kato after a first-round 74 on Monday, is tied for 13th in the individual standings and is contending for a qualifying spot in the NCAA Division II national championships, to be played May 19-23 in Allendale, Mich.
The ThunderWolves are in a tie for 11th place in the team standings with a 36-hole total of 610, 13 shots out of the sixth and final team qualifying spot for the national tournament. They posted a 300 team score Tuesday after totaling 310 on Monday.
The top two individuals not on the six qualifying teams will also advance to the national tournament.
Allenback made an eagle-2 on the 446-yard, par-4 fourth hole during his second round, along with two birdies. He is trailing co-leaders Enrique Livas of host St. Edward's (Texas) and Colorado Mesa's Colin Prater.

Marc Gasol changes mind mid-air, makes twisting hook and-1 (VIDEO)
Feb 1, 2013, 8:35 AM EST
This was a smart play by Marc Gasol. His plan was clearly to make a kick-out pass, but once he was fouled and knew he had continuation he changed his mind mid-air (as much as Gasol gets air) and threw the ball at the basket. That is completely legal. And smart.
Getting the shot to fall, that is just lucky.
Not that it helped much, the Grizzlies got run over by the Thunder.
