It looks like Madonna is moving on after splitting with 25-year-old Brahim Zaibat six months ago, and her new beau is certainly easy on the eyes.
On Monday night, the 55-year-old-icon stepped out with 26-year-old Timor Steffens in New York City after the two saw a Broadway play together. Timor is a dancer and choreographer, and he's got some killer abs, we might add. Also, apparently, a former equestrian and/or aspiring romance novel cover-model.
E! reported that the pair has been spotted together many times since January, and met this winter in Switzerland. According to a source however, the romance is apparently "not serious" and "just a fling."

Some EU embassies are just better than others on open house days. I went to Poland and Lithuania two years ago, because the embassies were around the corner from my house, and they were pretty much as you say, though Lithuania had a great exhibition of gorgeous photos of the country's natural wonders.
The embassies all publish their agendas on the EU mission site (www.eurunion.org) right before the event, so bookmark that and check it out next May. (Out of curiousity, did anyone wait in line for the British Embassy's garden tour or the Lego exhibit at the Danish Embassy?)

Washington, D.C. — The American Gas Association (AGA) is pleased to announce that Dave McCurdy has been named its new president and CEO. McCurdy will succeed Dave Parker, who has served as AGA's president and CEO since 1997. Parker announced earlier this year his desire to retire at the end of this year. McCurdy is expected to begin at AGA in early 2011.
"Dave McCurdy will be a tremendous asset to AGA, and a great addition to the AGA family," said Bob Skaggs, chairman of AGA and president and CEO, NiSource. "AGA and its staff have accomplished a great deal under Dave Parker's leadership during the past 13 years, and I am certain that McCurdy's experience and talent will ensure continued success in the years to come."
Most recently McCurdy served as president and CEO of the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers where he led the industry in building a new collaborative approach to development of federal policies. McCurdy joined the Alliance in 2007 after serving as president and CEO of the Electronics Industry Alliance (EIA) for eight years. Prior to leading the EIA, McCurdy had a distinguished career in the United States House of Representatives, served as an assistant attorney general of Oklahoma and in private law practice.
As a House Member, Representative McCurdy played a major role in enacting numerous important legislative initiatives, including: 1988 National Superconductivity Competitiveness Act; the 1985 Goldwater-Nichols Act, which reorganized the Department of Defense; the Nunn-McCurdy Amendment in 1982, requiring congressional notification of Department of Defense cost overruns of 15 percent or more; and the 1993 National Service Legislation, which originated in a bill introduced by Representative McCurdy and Senator Nunn.
A 1972 graduate of the University of Oklahoma, McCurdy received his J.D. in 1975 from Oklahoma Law School. He studied international economics at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland as a Rotary International Graduate Fellow. McCurdy also held a commission in the United States Air Force Reserve, attaining the rank of major and serving as a Judge Advocate General (JAG).
His numerous prestigious awards and honors include being the first recipient of the University of Oklahoma's Distinguished Service Award, being named one of the Ten Outstanding Young Men in America, PTA's national award for child advocacy and the USO's award for his commitment to improving education. He and his wife, Pamela M. McCurdy, M.D., a well respected physician, live in McLean, Virginia, and have three grown children.
Skaggs praised Parker, adding, "Dave's abiding trademark was a dedication to a 'player-coach' management style in which hierarchy gave way to equality. Dave went out of his way to make sure that recognition for AGA's successes was always shared with the AGA staff-team, thereby earning him the admiration and affection of all who came in contact with him, most especially his colleagues at AGA. While we will all miss him greatly, we are pleased to know that he is leaving AGA's team and all of its members in good hands."

Exams regulator Ofqual has today (Friday, 7th June) published the first research from a programme of work looking at the quality of marking for GCSEs, A levels and other academic qualifications.
A significant and growing minority of teachers and headteachers have told Ofqual that they do not believe marking has been good enough in recent years, particularly for GCSEs. The percentage of enquiries about results received regarding preliminary marks does remain small, but it is rising year on year.
In response, the regulator is carrying out a review of the marking system for external exams – those marked by the exam boards – for GCSEs, A levels and other academic qualifications.
There have been significant developments in marking over the past decade, particularly with the use of new technology. The initial report sets out how marking works today and identifies areas for further exploration. This report will be followed by two further reports in the coming months.
Chief Regulator Glenys Stacey said: "This initial research shows there have been significant developments in marking in recent years. We believe the increased use of on-screen marking is a positive thing, as it allows for more frequent and flexible monitoring of examiners, and reduces the logistical risks. We are aware though, that this does bring with it risks of new administration problems, which must be managed properly.
"I was heartened to see that our examiners, some 50,000, are overwhelmingly well educated teachers, experienced in their subject and in marking. They play their part in the public institution of awarding and we value and respect the contribution they make.
"As we set out in the report, the biggest factor influencing the reliability of marking is the design of the assessment itself – the style and quality of the questions and the quality of the accompanying mark schemes. These are matters we intend to improve as qualifications are reformed."
Other areas that Ofqual is interested in exploring in more detail include:
- The benefits and drawbacks associated with double-marking, where two examiners independently mark responses
- The benefits and drawbacks of item-level marking, where scripts are split into individual questions which are marked by different examiners
- The impact of different methods of standardisation on marking quality
- The use of common tolerances for differences in professional examiner judgements across exam boards
- Establishing a common suite of metrics to measure quality of marking across exam boards
- The role of mark schemes in ensuring marking reliability
- Stakeholder perceptions of marking
- Any issues with marking quality in different subject types or exam boards.
This initial report will be followed later in the summer by a report on the arrangements for challenging marks and grades – the Enquiries About Results and appeals processes – and a third report in the autumn detailing the results of Ofqual's further work, with final recommendations.

Eliot Spitzer Makes a Comeback on CNN
If you're thinking this sounds like "Crossfire" 2.0, you're not alone. In 2005 Jonathan Klein, the CNN/U.S. president canceled "Crossfire," shifting his network away from opinion. Explaining this decision to The Times, Klein said at the time that partisan head-butting was "hurting America" and that CNN would focus on "roll-up-your-sleeves journalism." Critics of this move call it a reversal for the network, which has struggled to compete with its two ideologically-leaning competitors Fox News and MSNBC. But Klein in his announcement on Wednesday, said the show would be in keeping with CNN's overall mission: "Other cable news channels force-feed viewers one narrow, predictable point of view; in contrast, CNN will be offering a lively roundup of all the best ideas — presented by two of the most intelligent and outspoken figures in the country."
This new show could prove to be something of a comeback for both the cable network as well as the disgraced former governor, who resigned after a federal investigation implicated him in a prostitution scandal. Since then, he has taken steps towards joining the media, blogging regularly for Slate and filling in as guest host for Dylan Ratigan on MSNBC.
Spitzer stopped by our offices for his first comprehensive post-scandal interview several months ago to discuss what we should learn politically from the recent economic crisis as well as what he has learned personally from his own scandal. He also spoke about love and redemption and what his future might look like: "All you can do is step back and say, 'Okay, move forward and try to continue to do something useful.' And over time, perhaps that will cause people to say, the other piece of his life is one aspect, but there are other aspects as well." He seems to be following his own advice.

- Something for everyoneHawaiiBeerLoverVIPDined on 10/9/2014I first heard of Cigar City when a guest visited my restaurant in Hawaii about a year ago. She raved about the beer and since then I have been following them on the internet and in beer publications. Fining myself with friends in Tampa, we had to check it out. None of us was disappointed to say if mildly. The beer selection...awesome! Something for everyone, even if you don't drink beer. Even more at the sister properties around the city. Service and food match the beer quality. We tried the Mac and cheese with chicken, a vegetable Cuban and a grilled Caesar salad. Server was friendly, checked back often, offered samples and kept the beers coming. If nothing else, definitely stop for a beer. You won't be sorry.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very good...YoungretiredDined on 10/4/2014Although really and truly we go there for the beer, the food was also very good! Wish they had a little more variety of options for food, but what we have had was good. Reservations were very easy on-line! Thanks!Special Features:
- Yum!AurrineDined on 9/20/2014Please do yourself a favor and order the burger with bacon and sweet plaintains. It is sweet and savory perfection!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Liked itHappyWifeBethDined on 9/13/2014This is a brewpub, and I don't drink, so... Purely based on the food I would give it three stars. It seemed like a lot of things were upcharges, and thats kind of annoying to me. For example, the only side you can get for free with your burger are their house chips (which unfortunately were terribly bland). But that being said, it was still a good burger. The others in my party really enjoyed their beer too. I think this is a great place to go with a group of friends. They have a nice ambiance here IMO.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not Impressedlucy6565Dined on 9/13/2014We made a reservation and the hostess seated us at a high top table right by the entrance and the very noisy bar! She never even asked if we would prefer a table! I returned to the hostess stand and requested a table. She told me next time you make a reservation make sure you ask for a table in the request box! I told her this was our first visit and I did not know that it was necessary, I did not bother to tell her I thought she was rude! Our server asked if this was our first visit, we told him it was but he never bothered to tell us anything about the restaurant! Why did he bother to ask if he had no intention of telling us about it? The food was good but not out of this world! I don't think we will be returning!
- Great foodAurelia8108Dined on 9/12/2014Great food great wait staff. Amazing selection if beerSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FoodtrishdishDined on 8/15/2014I love the menu. They have a few items that are not on a typical bar menu. I've enjoyed everything that I have tasted. The grass fead burger is OUTSTANDING!! My favorite burgee so far.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Girls Night OutGNOKUMCDined on 8/14/2014My girls night out group agreed that it was a place to return to. There were various food items they did not care for, but there we others they loved. We particularly like the small plates and the burgers.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Only go for the beer!Beachbum14Dined on 8/9/2014The food has sadly gone downhill. The beer is still amazing though!I would recommend this to a friend.

- Decent TimeEngineerTroyDined on 8/7/2014Overall, Cigar City Brewpub was good. It is definitely geared toward adults. The beer and winelists are extensive. I liked the eclectic mix of food styles which provided and interesting variety.Special Features:
- The following 103 reviews are from the Cigar City Brewpub reviews archive.
- Love Their BurgersAdamVIPDined on 7/27/2014Their burgers are exceptional, with homemade pickles, sauces, and quality ingredients. There beer speaks for itself!
- Cold beers, tasty food.MhartUFDined on 7/17/2014We came in on a Thursday for some drinks and apps and ended up ordering a few rounds and a couple meals. The beers are really good, and the food is very tasty. Service is great too. We hung out for a few hours and never felt rushed. I had an issue with my Open table account that the GM went out of his way to fix. My husband tried a range if beers, liked them all, but his favorite is the hotter than helles. All the food was good, and reasonably priced. We had: Yucca fries: tasty Chargrilled cesear: I was pleasantly surprised at how good this way (w/out dressing) Tomato bisque soup: definitely recommend Blue cheese burger: super tasty Our friends our vegetarians and loved everything they had.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- local local local!geezeyDined on 7/1/2014fresh local ingredients! beers and ales made right on the premises. too many different items on the menu we wanted to try. I know because we tried....chicharrones, stuffed piquillo peppers, empanadas of the day...wonderful choices and all with their own great flavor. BBQ burger was very moist and cooked to my perfect rareness and stayed together without running out onto the roll. tasted like meat too! what a concept kale salad was perfect. nice young tender kale with a dressing to offset the tartness of the kale. wonderful. macaroni and cheese perfectly cooked pasta and cheese sauce stayed just right until the last bite. didn't get runny or harden up. didn't have room for dessert but would have gone for the bread pudding.......next timeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Chicken = MehAdamVIPDined on 6/26/2014My first visit to Cigar City was amazing... this visit was okay. I recommend that you do not get the chicken. We ordered a chicken Caesar and a chicken sandwich. Both were average at best. And both portions were very small. Compared to the exceptional burger and sausage we had the last time, this was a let down. The beer, however, was still exceptional.
- Once is enoughvaderDined on 6/16/2014Still hungry after $30 Creative Loafing dining special. Afterwards, looked at main menu, and cost for our 3 items would have been less if ordered from menu. Overpriced, child-like portions, and 4 oz beer pairings not to our liking. Would rate a 2.5 star for food. Would not return. Unlike last year, we dined at Capital Grille which was and still is awesome!
- LoLoDined on 6/15/2014The food was great the only problem was that the server was unaware of the "Resturant Week Menu" so he wasn't aware that you get a 4oz pour with each course.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food & beer, but slow serviceFloridaFoodieDined on 6/15/2014My family came here for dinner on a Sunday night recently. We had reservations and were seated promptly. However, the service after that was beyond slow even though the restaurant was not busy. The waiter did not come by our table to take our drink order for at least 15 minutes. 2 in our party never received their appetizers after everyone else had finished their apps. Our beer orders for each course which did not come until some or most of each course was already eaten. When I asked the waiter about our first round of beers, he told me he forgot to put the beer orders in. In terms of food, the food was delicious. We tried the empanada, shrimp & grits, & rope vieja.

- Great Brewpub and Craft BeersAdamVIPDined on 6/15/2014We had great beer, and an even better meal. The burger was exceptional, and the sausage sous vide was a game changer. We will be back!
- Good food, slow servicenrodVIPDined on 6/14/2014The food was good and the beer selection obviously amazing. However, our server was slow and also didn't put one of our orders in correctly. It wasn't worth mentioning and we didn't get charged for it but it may have been helpful for her to write down the order. The piquillos appetizer was delicious!I would recommend this to a friend.

- Good beer, food so-soCaffiteDined on 5/10/2014Stopped in for Mother's Day; have been aware of the brewery but hasn't tried any. Arrived early so we sat at the bar and had a beer waiting for the rest of the group. It's the quality you'd expect from fresh and local brew. For dinner the group ordered the oyster po-boy, veggie Cubans, two burgers and a charred romaine salad. Reports on the burger was it was over-salted, the Cuban was an odd mix of sweet and savory as well as mushy, and tr salad was good but small for the price. We'd return for the beer and maybe some appetizers, and enjoyed the ambience. I personally enjoyed the experience, but I wouldn't consider it a particularly novel or memorable experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Quite impressedSouthTampaNewbieVIPDined on 4/19/2014We weren't sure what to expect about the food based on reading other reviews. However, we were quite impressed with the quality and taste. We ordered the shrimp with grits, and braised short ribs entrees. Both dishes were flavorful and portions were just right. It isn't an extensive food menu, but there is something for everyone. My husband ordered a beer sampler which consisted of four types of beer about 5-6 oz. each. He loved it, especially for the price! The atmosphere and decor was much nicer than we expected for a brewery. It was more a restaurant than pub/bar. Would definitely recommend giving a try.
- For beer, not foodNumnumDined on 4/12/2014Burger was decent...the rest of the food was meh. Good beer. Server was quick and friendly. Not enough to get me back there.

So glad I asked about it!) Recently remodeled & decor is perfect for a brewpub very comfortable we brought our young son but didnt feel out of place as there were a few other kids there I had shortribs very tasty although a little fatty my only suggestions is that cooks should taste the food before sending out my risotto and veggies were good but underseasoned and there were no salt & pepper shakers on our table enjoyable overall & we will be back to support an independent locally owned bizSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good Beer, Good FoodLooking4goodfoodDined on 4/7/2014Quiet Monday night (after 8:30 p.m.) but good food and service nonetheless. He had a brown ale called Paulina Pedroso and she had a glass of Pinot Grigio (a bit too cold) over a shared crab mac and cheese Appetizer. Delicious! Continued with entrees: panzanella salad so fresh and crisp (part of the small plates menu -very smart!) and brown ale braised short rib over a bed of risotto for regular appetites. Too full for anything else: we shared a glass of sweet home brewed soda called Root Cream. Wow! That is good stuff! Would go back for drinks and food. Loved the decor, all wood and beer theme.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A great timeTurdFergusonVIPDined on 4/5/2014Really enjoyed eating at Cigar City. I just moved back to Tampa and couldn't be more excited to have a super legit micro-brew label here in the bay area! Being able to drink a freshly brewed beer is a treat and the Jai Alai here is as good as it gets. As if the beer isn't good enough, the food is adventurous and rarely disappoints.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Worth the tripEsotericEricDined on 3/8/2014Visiting Tampa to see family and talked the wife into joining me for a trip to Cigar City brew Pub. The waitress took time to explain the different beer selections to me and the food selections to my wife. I had the crab macaroni and cheese and my wife had the Cuban. We interacted with several of the wait staff and they were all friendly and helpful; the proverbial 'service with a smile'. They all seemed genuinely happy to be working there. Not being able to decide which beer I wanted a pint of I order 2 'flights' of 4 beer samples (4 oz) each to get maximum exposure to the beer list. Loved them all! My only regret is that I live so far away that I can't come back often to try the other dishes or sip some more of the different brews.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Crab Mac and cheese is to die forDineLocalDined on 3/6/2014We arrived a few minutes before our reservation time and were escorted to our waiting table. The drink list was wonderful and it was hard to choose. We had 2 orders of the Crab Mac and cheese, the tomato bisque and the cheddar beer soup. Both soups were exceptional. I was skeptical about the cheese popcorn on the cheddar beer soup but it was a welcome and unique touch. The tomato soup was really rich and when forced to choose between finishing the soup or the crab Mac and cheese the Mac and cheese won! It was cheesy without being covered in sauce. The lump crab meat was piled on and the toasted Panko bread crumbs added just the right amount of crunch. We raved about this for several days after our dinner at Cigar City Brewing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

A company pension is a pension plan for all employees which is set up by the employer and where the employer makes payments into it on behalf of employees.
Clear Executive from Irish Life
Irish Life Executive Pension plans are simply company pensions that help you build up a fund for your retirement.
Four great reasons to choose Clear Executive Company Pension from Irish Life.
1. Choice
With our executive pension plans, we offer a range of fund options depending on how you (the member) want to save for your retirement.
2. Security
We offer two different strategies which gradually increase the security of your pension funds as you get closer to retirement. This is done by gradually moving from higher risk funds to safer options such as cash funds and bonds.
3. Flexibility
The trustee can choose your level of contribution (subject to a minimum amount per month) and you have the option to increase or reduce it at any time. You can contribute lump sums each year instead of (or as well as) regular contributions if you prefer, and you can even take a payment holiday if you need to.
4. Tax relief
You will get income tax relief and your employer will get corporation tax relief on payments made into a Clear Executive Plan. However pension income in retirement is subject to income tax relief, Universal Social Charge and PRSI if applicable. Correct as at August 2014.
Tax information is current and could change in the future.

As the dog days of summer approach, Drug Free Massapequa (DFM) continues to stay active. It has three big events planned for July and August, with the latter two offering important advice for parents and young people as they continue to tackle the drug problem on Long Island.
The first event is a way for local residents and DFM members to enjoy a summer day at John J. Burns Park.
On Sunday, July 31, a fishing event will take place at that park, located on Merrick Road. Attendees will go fishing in a charter boat, either Captree or Freeport. The cost is $40.00 per person for both fishing and barbecue. There will be a fishing contest for both the longest fish and heaviest fish. The barbecue will be held from 2 to 5 p.m. with live music. The barbecue will include raffle baskets, the cost of which is six tickets for $20.00 and 25 tickets for $50.00.
On Tuesday, Aug. 9, a meeting will take place at Marjorie Post Park, starting at 7:30 p.m. Steve Chassman from the Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (LICADD) will talk on bullying, sexting and what your children need to know to have a successful childhood.
Finally, on Wednesday, Aug. 17, a Long Islanders Fighting an Epidemic – Overdose Prevention (LIFEOP) training class will be held at Marjorie Post Park, beginning at 6:45 p.m. Dr. Thomas F. Jan, DO and LICADD officials will train attendees on how to save the lives of children in an overdose state.
The highlight of the seminar is a free opioid overdose prevention training program. The program, DFM officials said, is open not just to health care professionals. It will also be offered to parents, educators and even students, at least those over 18 years old.
According to DFM officials, Opioid medications and heroin are currently being abused in "epidemic proportions" on Long Island. The one-hour lecture with a 20-minute presentation is designed to provide proper life saving training for those in the midst of an opioid overdose.
The training program, DFM officials added, will qualify participants in the correct administration of Narcan, the antidote for such overdoses.

Very dog friendly. July 12, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by JonS Great location This location is perfect when visiting Dallas. Easy access to Downtown, Dallas Market Center. Only 20 minutes to DFW Airport. Staff was helpful in suggesting places to visit. The Starwood Lounge on the 11th floor is a great value. Shuttle driver was polite and helpful. Bartender was fun and remembered his guests.

The free breakfast was not good at all. Get some real eggs people. The pool area was nice and there were plenty of towels. Housekeeping was very nice and provided us plenty of towels. April 9, 2013

Rated 4 out of 5 by Gabal2000 great staff age of the hotel clearely shows on both the exterior and the entiror. However, the staff and the food quality at the lounge more than make up for the dated hotel. Edin was the one that checked me in and he was welcoming and freindly. Check in was quick and efficient. the rest of the staff shwoed great attitude. January 18, 2013

Rated 4 out of 5 by Happihapa Downtown Dallas This was my second stay at this hotel and I plan on keeping this one on my list. It has been recently renovated and is very clean. The price is right and the staff is friendly. Plus its pet friendly!!! The only downfall is that its not in the middle of downtown, but it's a very short drive to all the sights. July 7, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by BobB Wonderful Staff !! The staff at the Sheraton Suites in Dallas is great. The team at the desk was very friendly and helpful, the rooms were clean, and the restaurant and lounge staff provided excellent service. The management team is engaged and visible. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Dallas-Fortworth area. May 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Booker123 Outstanding 11th floor SPG Club service The service I received from the 11th floor Club attendant, ABU, was outstanding. His attention to detail was always consistant, consistantly great. It was obvious he "cared" for each and every patron. Excellent support provided by all staff members which I interfaced with. The GM is doing something right! November 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by sarah212 Great location & great room This hotel was better then I expected! The rooms are clean & the view from our walk out balcony from our bedroom was beautiful!

Rated 2 out of 5 by Jonzey Sheraton Suites Market Center Dallas The entrance and lobby was impressive and meet my expectations. However several things were disappointing. There was a note in the elevator indicating updates and construction were underway. This I understand and accept, but the hallways were not vacuumed and cleared of dust and debris at the end of the construction day. They have two full beds stuffed into the bedroom so someone is sleeping right against the wall in each of the beds and you can not open the closet door fully because the door hits the end of the bed. The bedroom suite assigned for my family of four really only had room for a single king sized bed not two full sized beds. Finally but not least, my second suite, which was reserved for my parents, was not serviced for two days in a row even though they were not participating in the "Green" program. I had to request fresh towels for them for two consecutive days. This location has excellent potential, but because of my experience, I can not recommend them at this time. July 29, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by dlduncan Getaway Hotel is okay. Beds comfortable, however no walking room around beds, very small double bedroom. Room was clean. Close to AA Center and downtown. Don't appreciate having to pay to use internet or park at hotel but greed seems to prevail. It is an open lot and should be included free to paying guests. August 15, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by globetrotters Good hotel for the design center I think my judgement is clouded by the room/floor we received. As a platinum member would think we would have at least been assigned a room on the SPG floor... As a gold received that floor and if don't receive that floor have to wonder why. When mentioned to the front desk the explanation was unconvincing, (won't go into the lengthy synopsis) no offer to move us was forthcoming. There had to be a better room/floor as the hotel parking lot was far from crowded. We were assigned a room on floor 5.. Right over the vents for the restaurants. We love hotels were we can open the windows for some fresh air. Couldn't keep the window open unless we wanted to smell food... Steaks grilling odor. It was classed a suite hotel, however, the bedroom was dinky...maybe different on upper floors, don't know. The sitting room and bathroom were sized okay. Staff was polite and helpful. Gave us directions to a destination that was spot on. Right in the heart of the design center so if that is your destination a good choice. March 8, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by sarah7785 Food needs improvement I stay at Sheraton hotels many times throughout the year for business. Overall, the rooms are nice and the staff was accommodating. However, the hotel restaurant really needs improvement. I have visited this hotel several times over the past couple of years and I'm always disappointed with the food. June 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Fengshui1 Incredible service I would recommend this hotel to any individual and/or family. The staff members were extremely friendly and helpful to my entire family.

Again, I would like to thank your excellent staff. October 25, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by LYNN22 The perfect location for the Dallas Market Center The staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. The separate living room is my favorite feature of your rooms. It feels more like a small apartment rather than a hotel room. I can work at the table and relax on the couch separate from the bedroom. March 28, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by pyzca Do Not care to write long review Everything was great. Staff were friendly. The two bed +1 couch room (#603) though... had terrible layout. I would guess that there were about two feet of space between the foot of each of the two beds and the wall. The couch area was fine, until the couch unfolded... same issue. June 3, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by KCguy Ok, average-avoid the highway facing rooms! Most issues you have with this hotel will be avoiding rooms that face the highway. A Platinum, I was placed on the 7th floor, end room (not a SPG floor--you would think they would have prebooked a platinum with one of the better facing rooms on a better floor--put SPG doesn't seem to do that). I slept only 2 hours despite my sound machine on full blast. The traffic noise is horrifying. Tonya at the front desk, who is fantastic, changed my room the next morning at 7am to a room facing the opposite way. The first room was a King, which I had reserved, and the new room was a Double. The double rooms have MUCH more space than the kings in the bedroom. I do not recommend the kings due to tiny bedrooms. The Club had hot dinner-type food options at night and in the morning, but no alcohol, which seems strange. Overall, it was average--rooms were average condition with minor issues such as leaking shower heads, scuffed up tubs. I probably will look elsewhere next time due to the wide arrange of choices in Dallas. November 2, 2011

The fitness facility was wonderful. December 30, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by ATM25 Comfortable and SPG quality The hotel was comfortable and updated. The SPG floors were separate and required card access which is always nice. The SPG Club lounge had a very nice breakfast while we were there. Overall the hotel exceeded expectations. April 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by dare2dreambig Relaxing Stay!!! We were here for 9 nights. We enjoyed every day of the stay. Most of the hotel staff treated us with a pleasant and friendly demeanor. We would wholeheartedly recommend this location to anyone coming to area and we look forward to staying here again next time we come to town. August 4, 2013

sharad. Started The Discussion:
Hi everyone,
My employers say that I am not eligible for LTA and Medical allowance if I leave a company before 1 year ?
When I leave the company I will have completed 6 months 10 days. Should I not be eligible for LTA and Medical on a pro-rata basis ? My offer letter stated LTA and MEdical allowance as a part of my CTC. What are the sections which I should cite to my employer to confirm that I am entitled to LTA/Medical and where can I appeal if they don't agree ?
Please reply.
Thanks and Regards,
Hello Sharad,
The eligibility criteria for taking LTA is after confirmation i.e. 6 months after joining. The employer says LTA is payable after 1 year as for LTA you have to take Earned leave / Privilaged leave which gets applicable or credited after completion of 1 year.
But since you are leaving within 1 year and LTA is shown as a part of your CTC, you are eligible to get LTA amount on pro-rata basis in your Full and Final payment.
Regarding Medical, if your medical is being paid upon submission of bills quarterly etc. you can claim Medical of your fulfilled service period; doesn't matter if it is 1 month / 2 months/ 20 days. You will also get this in full and final. Even if you don't produce medical bills, it will be treated taxable but it will be paid.
However, I would advise you to check your appointment letter terms with respect to above. If those are different and you have signed that, I am afraid, you will have to accept your employer's decision.
My offer letter says its a part of the CTC.
However my appointment letter says that you will be paid out LTA and medical based on company rules. (There was no mention of what specific is the company rule.) Then now they are saying that they have a company rule of minimum 1 year of completion for LTA/Medical. Can they do that ?
Dear Sharad,
You can discuss with your employer based on my above suggested points and see what happens. Ask your colleagues about the past employees who left within an year.
All the best!
Hi Vaishalee,
Its a very new company with only 2 employees. The person who last left didn't get his LTA as he resigned in 3 months. My probation was of 3 months so I am a confirmed employee.
If the employer maintains that its company rules not to give LTA if employee resigns before an year (which wasn't mentioned in the appointment letter, as it only says LTA based on company rules) can I appeal to some forum saying its unethical not to have disclosed this earlier and there was ambiguity in the appointment letter ?
Thanks and Regards,
bunti - Member Since: Mar 2010
Hi Sharad
Actually about LTA & Medical Claim is purily under Company Policy What said your Company Policy .If any thing about this is written in appointment letter that will be valid. clarily descuss with your employer.There is no acr for this...
Dear Sharad,
Yours is a new company and employee strength is too less. Obviously, your employer will act upon his wishes if HR policies are yet to frame. You can politely pinpoint your employer that company rules are precisely to be known to employees with utmost clarity. If you both are in good terms, he might avail you your benefits and certainly do needful to avoid any ambiguity for future employees.
We hope and pray you get all your due benefits.

So I think all those things played a big factor in this. Being able to do stuff that I've never done and wanting to try new things and having the young talent that's actually hungry and help me get through that and make it look good. I've got some new moves in my arsenal, and the people love it. This new attitude and new Goldust they've never seen with new face paint. I couldn't have asked for anything. This run has been great."

Kharma has been focusing much more on her health than she has at any point during her professional wrestling career, as the former TNA knockout is now doing the yoga program created by Diamond Dallas Page. She has lost a considerable amount of weight since leaving WWE.
It was revealed earlier in the week that TNA had signed Alpha Female, a wrestler who is known in Europe. Management has decided to pair her up with Chris Sabin, who recently broke up with Velvet Sky on screen. The relationship is designed to be a focal story line point for the Knockouts division.
TNA taped the hall of fame induction ceremony for Kurt Angle at Impact Wrestling today. After delivering an emotional speech, Ethan Carter interrupted the segment, which led to a match between the two at TNA Lockdown being announced.
While there are some fans who are under the impression that he has really left the compny, Jeff Hardy will be returning to the company in March. He has already been announced for TNA Lockdown 2014, where is scheduled to be a part of the Lethal Lockdown match.
There will be a Lethal Lockdown match at TNA Lockdown 2014 this year. Team Dixie will consists of Ethan Carter, Bobby Roode, James Storm and Rockstar Spud. They will face Team MVP, which will include MVP, Gunner, Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards.
After weeks of teasing the move, the James Storm heel turn has finally happened. Impact Wrestling is being taped right now, and the long time TNA star turned on Gunner as he was challenging Brutus Magnus for the world heavyweight championship.
Many are wondering who will be the first opponent for MVP in TNA will be, and it looks like Rockstar Spud has been given that honor. Earlier today, the two of them filmed a match for the episode of Impact Wrestling set to air on February 13.
While he denied the rumors all week long, it has now been confirmed that MVP is indeed the new story line investor for TNA. He is making an appearance on Impact Wrestling tonight, where he was accompanied by Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards. All three were wearing suits.
Since the start, Bray Wyatt has done all of the talking to the Wyatt Family. Luke Harper and Erick Rowan generally just stand to the side and in the background during the interview segments. On Smackdown this week, though, Harper actually says a few words.
A shocking heel turn took place in WWE at the Smackdown taping tonight. Titus ONeil turned on his Prime Time Player teammate Darren Young during a match against Curtis Axel and Ryback. ONeil turned heel and vicious assaulted Young after proclaiming that he was tired of losing all the time.
In a rather pleasantly surprising move, Antonio Cesaro has earned himself a main event spot at Elimination Chamber 2014. Despite being stuck in a mid card tag team with Jack Swagger, he defeated Dolph Ziggler in a qualifying match on Smackdown this week.
Not only does Christian make his return to WWE on Smackdown this week, but the former world heavyweight champion is actually going to be receiving a nice push right off the bat. By defeating Jack Swagger, Christian earns himself a spot at Elimination Chamber 2014.

Cousin Marriage Conundrum
The ancient practice discourages democratic nation-building
by Steve Sailer
American Conservative,
Steven Pinker (The Blank Slate) chose this for inclusion in his anthology: Best Science and Nature Writing, 2004
prominent neoconservatives are calling on America not only to conquer
Iraq (and perhaps more Muslim nations after that), but also to rebuild
Iraqi society in order to jumpstart the democratization of the Middle
East. Yet, Americans know so little about the Middle East that few of us
are even aware of one of one of the building blocks of Arab Muslim
cultures -- cousin marriage. Not surprisingly, we are almost utterly
innocent of any understanding of how much the high degree of inbreeding
in Iraq could interfere with our nation building ambitions.

Adam Rose
Real Name
Raymond Leppan
Date of Birth
July 20, 1979
Place of Birth
A picture of Velvet Sky wearing quite an interesting but sexy costume. The TNA Knockout is wearing dangerously short shorts, pink hair, handcuffs, high heels and a leather hat. Her really tanned legs and abs are in full view.
April 15, 2014
A very sexy picture of Paige wearing hot shorts. The WWE Divas Champion is posing in front of a mirror for a selfie and showing off her incredible body.

April 10, 2014
Since the bunny that accompanies Adam Rose has been featured more frequently on television as of late, fans have been speculating that WWE will eventually have him work a match. It looks like that might happen sooner than later. There are talks that Rose and the bunny could be teaming up to battle Heath Slater and Titus ONeil during the kickoff match at Night of Champions 2014.
September 11, 2014
One of the growing points of emphasis on Monday Night Raw lately has become the bunny that accompanies Adam Rose to ringside. A lot of WWE fans are wondering who is the person behind the suit. Many of the guesses have been based upon the movies that the bunny does. However, management is simply throwing off the fans with moves like the super kick. Right now, the strongest candidate to be revealed under the suit is Darren Young, who should be returning from a serious leg injury soon.
September 9, 2014
There's been rumors floating around for quite some time now that WWE has lost interest in pushing Adam Rose because several key members of management, including Vince McMahon himself, are reportedly not fans of the character. It has now been noted that Rose has not had a match on Monday Night Raw in about a month, which leads many to believe that the rumors are indeed true.
August 24, 2014
Despite proving himself to be a valuable commodity on the international circuit for WWE, talks of promoting Sami Zayn to the main roster have died down tremendously as of late. With Bo Dallas and Adam Rose struggling to gain a connection with the audience, the belief is that management is hesitant to bring another person up from developmental at this time.
August 2, 2014
Rumors about former TNA Knockout Rosita joining WWE have been floating around for quite some time now. Well, things are heating up again. In addition to being utilized as an on screen character within the Adam Rose party posse, Rosita is also said to be one of the top candidates to compete in the upcoming season of Tough Enough, which has been delayed due to budgeting issues.
July 16, 2014
In a rather interesting move, management has removed Adam Rose and Damien Sandow from the Intercontinental Championship battle royal at WWE Battleground 2014. No word yet on why they were pulled from the match, but rumors are floating around that the two of them could be given a singles match on the pay per view. As of right now, there are twenty remaining contestants competing for the belt.
July 16, 2014
Rumors are floating around right now that Adam Rose is expected to replace Santino Marella as the comedy routine on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. However, those reporting on the speculation are failing to remember that Damien Sandow actually owns that role in WWE at the moment. Management is still not sold on Rose, so the chances of him being moved above Sandow isn't very high at the moment.
July 11, 2014
According to backstage rumors, Adam Rose is clinging on by a thread since key members of WWE management, including Vince McMahon and producer Kevin Dunn, are not big fans of his character. Things might have gotten worse since his match at Money in the Bank 2014 against Damien Sandow was basically ignored by the live audience. Rose could be demoted from television very soon.
July 5, 2014
Many were under the impression that WWE was not interested in signing Rosita, as nothing took place after she did tryouts with the company. However, there are rumors floating around that management might have had a change of heart. Many see her appearances as an entourage of Adam Rose recently as a sign that WWE will be offering her a developmental contract soon.
July 3, 2014
Those that watched Monday Night Raw this week saw an in show commercial being aired for Twisted Tea that featured Santino Marella and Adam Rose. Several of the WWE stars also posted messages on Twitter about the adult beverage. The move is viewed as being quite interesting because the company has spent years shifting their attention towards a younger audience. This product does not necessarily fit that demographic.
July 1, 2014
Since WWE needed a filler segment at Money in the Bank 2014 and wanted to showcase Adam Rose a little bit, he was given a quick match against Damien Sandow, who was dressed as Paul Revere. Match was not really all that noteworthy, and Rose got the win after hitting the Party Foul finishing move. This was a segment that belongs more on Monday Night Raw than a pay per view.
June 29, 2014
While management might not be a big fan of Adam Rose, he does have a supporter in Batista. At the Comic Con event in Philadelphia over the weekend, Batista told the fans, who were there to hear him speak about the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy movie, that Rose was someone in WWE that people should keep an eye on. That show of support is unlikely to have an effect on management, though.
June 24, 2014
Those that watch Monday Night Raw and Smackdown are already aware that Damien Sandow is being buried by WWE. The company also decided to humiliate him a bit over the weekend at a live event in Hamilton. He was booked in three quick losses to Titus ONeil, Bo Dallas and Adam Rose within a span of a couple of minutes.
June 15, 2014
During the three hour broadcast of Monday Night Raw this week, Adam Rose was nowhere to be found, and that has sparked quite a bit of speculation about his status in WWE. Kevin Dunn, the producer, reportedly buried Rose backstage not too long ago because he is not a fan of the gimmick. For what it's worth, though, Rose did suffer a bit of an injury at a live event over the weekend.
June 12, 2014
Initially, it appeared that WWE was going to give Adam Rose a match at Payback 2014, presumably against Jack Swagger. However, with officials losing some faith in Rose, it looks like that chance isn't likely to take place at the pay per view. Rumors have it that it could be added as a filler match if WWE cannot find a better option for the slot.
May 28, 2014

May 27, 2014
If you routinely watch Monday Night Raw, then you already know that Adam Rose has a bunny in his entourage. Rumors are floating around that the person portraying that character is actually Zack Ryder. However, the long time WWE star is denying it and has been doing so for the last several weeks. Dolph Ziggler recently flamed the fans of those rumors by telling fans on Twitter that it is Ryder.
May 21, 2014
Things change pretty rapidly backstage in WWE, and that appears to be the case with the Adam Rose push. While he might still get his pay per view debut at Payback 2014 against Jack Swagger, there are those in management who feel that his television debut on Monday Night Raw was a flop. There are even rumors floating around that Rose could be sent back down to WWE NXT.
May 12, 2014
It looks like Adam Rose is going to be leapfrogging other WWE stars this month, as the former developmental wrestler is penciled in for a match at Payback 2014. His pay per view debut is expected to be against Jack Swagger, whom he confronted during Monday Night Raw this past week. There are those backstage in WWE that feel that his character can get over with the live audience in Chicago.

Memorial Day baseball tournament is a hit
By Eddie Brisendine
Ramona Sports Association hosted its 30th Annual Ramona Baseball Invitational over the Memorial Day weekend at the PONY Baseball fields in Ramona Community Park. It was the first year the games were played under the lights.
Fifty-one teams from around the county played over the four-day event, including 11 teams from Ramona. The stands and fence lines were jammed with spectators. Players and spectators enjoyed what they agreed was beautiful weather and great baseball.
Vendors sold barbecue, Mexican food, coffee, jewelry, clothing, and sporting goods. Ramona High School graduate Lexi Hogan provided face painting.
"I'm going to Point Loma Nazarene College this fall, so I'm trying to earn some much needed money here this weekend," said Hogan.
Two former PONY league players — Kevin Guglielmetti and Trevor Kerchner — assisted at the tournament, calling balls and strikes and working the base paths for the umpire crew. For Kerchner, it's all about fun.
"This has always been a great tournament and it's a lot of fun to come back and umpire," he said.
The tournament was broken into two parts. Friday and Saturday were "pool play" days, where all the teams in each division played against each other. On Sunday and Monday, a single elimination bracket was played, with each team being seeded based on their pool standings.

General Motors says it rode cost cuts and strong sales of new models to its first quarterly profit in nearly three years.
The Detroit automaker says it earned $865 million from January through March, a strong sign GM has reversed course from staggering losses that nearly caused its death. During the same quarter last year, GM lost $6 billion.
The U.S. government loaned GM about $50 billion to stay in business. GM has repaid $6.7 billion and hopes to pay back the rest with a stock sale.
The government now owns 61 percent of the company.

La Wintour smiles at John Galliano as he joins her at the Ritz
Since Raf Simons was appointed to Dior and Hedi Slimane took up the Yves Saint Laurent (or should we say Saint Laurent Paris) position, the rumour mill has enjoyed a well-deserved break. That is… until this weekend! John Galliano was Twitpic'd lunching avec US Vogue's edixtrix Anna Wintour at the ultra-posh Ritz restaurant L'Espadon in Paris. A lone-wolf Galliano sighting is enough to tickle the tabloids, but Galliano dining with She.Who.Rules.Everything? Well, now we're interested. Sidenote: thank you Mr Internet for inventing Instagram.
Blurry, yes, but that's definitely Mr. Galliano and his plaits.
Galliano joined the editor in chief with her lovely daughter Bee Schaffer and whilst we can't reveal what was discussed, we can see smiles and lots of them. This is hot on the heels of an inital Galliano/American Vogue mystery meeting from April when John met up with Wintour's colleague and fellow fashion force, Grace Coddington in New York. On this occasion, fashion writer Dana Thomas was lucky enough to be within eaves-dropping distance to tweet "Sighting: John Galliano lunching with Grace Coddington in Manhattan today and telling her that he is 'thrilled' with....something!"
John Galliano during Paris Fashion Week in 2009
So… just WHAT is SOMETHING? And why would both Anna and Grace be involved? Will the shamed designer soon be sufficiently rehabilitated and redeemed to be welcomed back into the loving arms of fashion fold? We have three theories….
Theory One: Two words: Elsa Schiaparelli. Diego Della Valle, the owner of Tod's, Hogan and Roger Vivier, has recently acquired the fashion house and is set to revive it for 2012. The model/actress/director Farida Khelfa is currently steering the style-ship as a 'muse' of sorts, but they'll no doubt need to appoint a chief designer very soon. If the label were to match up to its originator, the look would be avant-garde, challenging and very dramatic and theatrical. Hmm, sounds very much like JG could fit the bill, non? BUT, the rumours have been quickly dismissed as untrue…
Theory Two: LVMH will allow Galliano to return to his own eponymous line. New York Times' Cathy Horyn stated last year that 'casual discussions' were occurring at LVMH towers and the possibility of Mr. Galliano returning to his own label wasn't completely quashed.
Theory Three: Galliano will continue to lay low and stay under the radar. Maybe he could consider opening a very low-key atelier, and produce the odd dress here and there, a la Kate Mossy's wedding gown…
So until some other bonkers idea fires up again (remember the one where John would collaborate with Topshop?) we'll be watching very closely and keeping you posted.

Prosecutors drop charges against solider accused in fatal house fire involving his father
Thomas Kirch was accused in fatal arson
INDIANAPOLIS - Prosecutors have dropped charges against an Indianapolis solider who returned from overseas after he was accused of helping his mother set fire to the family's home, killing his father.
Thomas Kirch, 27, who had been serving in Germany, and his mother, Gwen Kirch, a music teacher at St. Pius X Catholic School, were accused of setting the fire in the 7000 block of Eastwick Lane in April 2007.
David Kirch, Gwen's husband and Thomas' father, died in the blaze.
Thomas Kirch and his mother, weren't accused in the arson until September 2011, when they were each charged with arson and conspiracy to commit arson.
Court documents indicate that investigators found gasoline containers from the garage and that accelerant was poured on the stairs and in several rooms. Evidence was also gathered from a computer that was damaged in the fire.
Charges were suddenly dropped against Gwen Kirch on Nov. 16, and against Thomas Kirch on Monday.
At a prior court hearing, Deputy Prosecutor Ross Anderson cited computer evidence recently obtained by the state. In it's motion to dismiss, the state said that given the magnitude of this case, it does not want a legitimate appellate issue before the court which could present a probability of reverse, on appeal, after conviction.
Prosecutors can re-file charges against the Kirches.
"Because charges are dropped or dismissed does not mean this case is over with. The state's motion provided they could refile these charges," said Indianapolis defense attorney Jack Crawford, who is not involved in the case. "Oftentimes that happens because of evidentiary problems or procedural issues, the state decides to dismiss a case. On something as serious as this, I would imagine the state should want to bring these charges back."
Attorneys for the Kirches declined to comment.
