Pros: Proximity to attractions and dining.
Cons: Better television system. Channel guide was incorrect and TV was very difficult to tune and find stations.

Nice hotel, friendly staff. Close to KY ExpoPosted Aug 30, 2014
Pros: Closeness to expo center
Cons: Air conditioning unit seemed older and the fan didn't run as well as we would have liked.
Location: We walked to Arby's and walked to state fair grounds.
We chose this hotel because it was close to the Expo Center. We were attending the Alabama concert during the state fair. It was convient and the staff was very friendly. I would stay at this hotel again.

Good location, but just so so.Posted Aug 15, 2014
The wifi never worked in our room. The breakfast was lacking in enough choices. We were there for the PGA golf tournament and requested the Golf Channel or TNT be turned on in the breakfast area and were told that the tv couldn't be turned from CNN. Over the 7 days of the tournament over 180,000 people attended. I asked if they turned the Kentucky Derby on when that was being run and they said yes. I guess that this hotel wants to be only known as a horse hotel, so you might want to pick a different hotel if you are in town for golf or any University of Louisville sports! Also, the pool had very limited hours and a total capacity of 5 swimmers. VERY WIERD!

We have a great experience at this hotel.Posted Aug 6, 2014
Pros: I liked the "free" hot breakfast and that it was so close to where we needed to go everyday.
Cons: The cleanliness could have been better. My son, while playing with his matchbox cars, found food under the bed.
Location: The location is very close to the Kentucky Expo Center. I don't know what there is to do becease we spent all of our time at the Expo Center.
We where showing livestock at the Expo Center my two must haves where breakfast and pool. They offered both plus we had a microwave and a refrigerator in the room. And it was right outside of gate 3 of the expo ------ so close.

MAC is a staple brand for my lipsticks. I don't love their face products as much, aside from blushes and the occasional MSF. I used to love their shadows, but I find that I haven't used mine in ages. Their collections that they release are some of the most fun & creative on the market.

Me and my girls hangin' out tonight
We decide we gonna step in line for the club, to see what's up
Didn't know if we was getting in
No ID, we don't got anything to show, oh no
Oh my God! Tell me what do I see
A hunny right in front of me and he's clockin' me
He steps through. I hope that I would too
Then the bouncer takes one look at me "what are you fifteen?"
You know you had me spinnin'
Right from the beginnin'
When you put dat record on
You know I'm bouts to get my groove on And I can't even imagine
If this thing didn't happen
The night is just beginnin'
And I'm already spinnin'
I tell the bouncer "I'm herre all the time"
Didn't believe me, said he heard that line before, and many more.
I try to tell that I'm 21 (nuh, uh girl)
Come on man "I just look real young" Cuh huh.
Find more lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.com
I say "please you gots to be to cool with me"
Then he smiled and said "okay, alright but just for tonight"
I step inside. And right there before my eyes
He's in the DJ booth with headphones on,
And he's playing my song, Oh my God!
Got me spinnin' right round like a record baby!

The Fast Runner (Atanarjuat) and Nanook of the North Zacharias Kunuk; Robert J. Flaherty. (both unrated) Webster University's Indigenous Cinema series continues with two gems: the silent classic Nanook of the North and the innovative contemporary fable The Fast Runner (Atanarjuat). Engrossing throughout its nearly three hours running time, Fast Runner presents the Inuit fable of two bitter rivals in this ethnographic detailing of a nomadic, tribal existence and the rituals that make survival possible. Almost 80 years earlier, Robert J. Flaherty, the man called the "father of documentary film," directed Nanook and his Inuit family to reenact daily activities during the 1920-21 seasons on the eastern shore of Hudson Bay: building an igloo, a seal hunt plus the subsequent meat feast, tenderizing the seal skin, delight at a phonograph, sled dogs and family enduring a snowstorm and other daily struggles and joys. The Fast Runner screens at 7 p.m. Friday, October 8, preceded by a live video conference with director Zacharias Kunuk from Igloolik, Nunavut; Nanook screens 8 p.m. Saturday, October 9, in the Moore Auditorium on the campus of Webster University, 470 E. Lockwood Avenue. Call 314-968-7487 for more information. (Diane Carson)

Based on the information obtained from the autopsy and other information obtained by investigators, the child's mother Jennifer Lynn Poole has been arrested for Injury To A Child By Omission which is a Felony in the 1st Degree.

Poll: Most Israelis would support Iran strike
(photo credit:AP)
A vast majority (66%) of Israelis said they would support military action if diplomatic and economic efforts failed to get Iran to stop uranium enrichment, and of that number, 75% would support this action even if the Obama administration were opposed, according to a survey jointly commissioned by Bar-Ilan University's BESA center and the ADL, published on Sunday.
Regarding the US president, most respondents have an overall favorable opinion of Barack Obama, but are skeptical about his Middle East policies; while 60 percent said they had either a "somewhat favorable" or "very favorable" opinion of Obama, and 14% said their attitude toward him was unfavorable, only 32% of the respondents said they approved of Obama's policies toward Israel, and 21% said they disapproved.
Fully 47%, however, had no answer regarding those policies, an indication that people were still forming an opinion.
Bar-Ilan University's Eytan Gilboa, a professor of international communications who directed the poll along with BESA director Efraim Inbar, said Israelis were making a distinction between Obama, whom they liked, and his policies toward the region, of which they were more skeptical.
While a 60% approval rating for Obama among Israeli Jews is high, it is still significantly below the president's popularity rating among American Jews, where tracking polls conducted through the new president's first 100 days in office showed that 79% of Jews approved of Obama's performance so far.
The BESA/ADL poll showed that Israelis were ambivalent about Obama's connection to Israel, with 38% characterizing his attitude toward Israel as "friendly" or "very friendly," 33% as "neutral," and 8% characterizing it as "unfriendly" or "very unfriendly."
Gilboa noted that throughout the survey, the younger respondents, aged 18 to 41, were more hawkish in their views than the older ones.
Gilboa said that, counterintuitively, the younger respondents had less trust in Obama and were more in favor of military action against Iran, even against US wishes.
He said this represented a degree of distrust among the youth of politicians and politics as usual, and said the attitude was consistent with the fact that Israeli youth voted more heavily for Israel Beiteinu in the last elections than their elders,
The poll, which was taken in advance of a conference on US-Israel relations to be held at Bar-Ilan University later this week, was very similar to a poll taken two years ago - albeit without reference to Obama - and the earlier poll provided a baseline for comparison.
As opposed to the 2007 poll, where 62% of the respondents said that American Jews should feel free to criticize Israel and the government's policies, and 36% said they should not, this time the numbers were reversed, with 35% saying American Jews could criticize Israel, and 52% saying they should not.
Gilboa interpreted this as an indication that Israeli Jews felt less secure about US policies than they did two years ago.
"What the public is saying is that since we don't know much about Obama, and don't trust him, US Jews must be careful about criticizing us," he said.
Among the other findings in the poll were that fully 72% of Israelis had a positive attitude of the US, up eight points from 2007, and 76% believe that the US would come to Israel's aid in a serious crisis involving a threat to Israel's existence, a figure down four percentage points from 2007.
Some 49% of the respondents said that US relations with Israel were close because of Israel's role as a strategic partner, 26% attributed the support to the political power of American Jewry, and 15% said it had to do with the democratic tradition and values shared by the two countries.
The telephone poll, carried out by Maagar Mochot, was conducted among a representative sample of 610 Jewish Israeli adults aged 18 and above. The poll had a 4.5% margin of error.

Nashua board debates assistant superintendent's salary
After much discussion, attempts by some board members to reduce Crebase's recommended salary of $105,000 by $10,000 failed.
"I cant wait to get started," Crebase said. "I am really looking forward to working with Mr. Conrad and the rest of the central office to bring the district forward."
While discussing Crebase's salary, board member Dennis Ryder said, "The lady is very impressive, but totally inexperienced."
Ryder said that based upon her lack of experience, a salary of $95,000 for a probationary year would be appropriate.
"These salaries come at the expense of our children," board member Sandra Ziehm said.
Board member Kimberly Muise said the notion of a probationary period for Crebase was insulting to her, and that if other board members feel she is so inexperienced they should have never agreed to hire her in the first place.
Board member William Mosher called some board members attempts to reduce Crebase's recommended salary and give her a probationary period ludicrous and that it would never happen in the private sector.
Board President Robert Hallowell took the board to task for failing to come together to create a salary scale, and said that board members arguing that Crebase should receive a lower salary due to her lack of experience were making a confusing argument.
"Are you saying we would have paid the other candidates with more experience more money if we hired them? That makes me scratch my head," Hallowell said.
Board member Steven Haas said $95,000 would make Crebase one of the lowest paid assistant superintendents in the state, while Nashua's school district is one of the largest in the state. "It would be a slap in the face," Haas said.
The salary of the position was also discussed during the meeting's public comment section of the meeting, as resident Karen Thoman asked the board why Crebase was getting a raise for her new position in relation to her previous job, saying it might make sense to not give her more money until she has proven herself capable.
Hallowell responded that she was not getting a raise, she was leaving an old position for a new position, and that her salary would be in line with salaries for assistant superintendents around the state.
The position became available when current Assistant Superintendent Althea Sheaff announced earlier this year she would be retiring at the conclusion of the current school year.
"We had a good hiring process, and we had three strong candidates interview for the job, but I believe (Crebase's) strong background in curriculum and instruction can bring teachers along to where we need them to be," Conrad said.
Along with Crebase, Ledge Street Elementary School Principal Janet Valeri and Raymond School District elementary school Principal Daniel LeGallo were finalists for the position. Crebase said she was informed confidentially shortly after her public interview that she would be Conrad's recommendation to the board.
Crebase went on to say that her first priority as assistant superintendent, which is her first central office position, would be to examine curriculum in relation to the soon-to-be-implemented Common Core standards.
"We will be looking at instructional changes," Crebase said.
Assistant Superintendent Jennifer Seusing said Crebase's resume, which includes a graduate degree from Harvard University and time spent teaching at an inner-city Houston, Texas, school, was very impressive.
"She had everything we were looking for," Seusing said.
Conrad agreed, saying, "I think she will bring a real strong perspective to the district office."
While excited to take on a new challenge, Crebase said she is sad to leave Main Dunstable, as she had gotten very comfortable with both the school's staff and students.

2007 Tasting Notes
I brought this tea home because I planned to do some cold steeping with it… I do enjoy this tea, but I don't LOVE it, which means I won't reach for it as much and it will sit around longer. I figured it would probably be really tasty cold brewed and that way it will move through my stash faster. However, this morning I really wanted a black tea I could have without milk and sugar, and I have so few of those at home, so I reached for this one!
And it was quite tasty this morning. Lots of red fruits, a hint of vanilla. It will be good to have at home for drinking on the weekends as well, it seems!
I was originally planning to just sell/trade this tea unopened as I am not much on assams and even less on plain assams. However, this evening I really wanted to have hot cocoa with tea steeped in it and I realized that I didn't have anything really suitable. So I popped this open… I am thinking I might keep it around for when I need a really robust tea (to have with milk and sugar), for steeping in hot chocolate, and perhaps for cold brewing occasionally.
For the record I tasted this a little bit under the chocolate, and it was assamy. Haha.
Remember how yesterday I was complaining about getting up early to teach? Well I got up an hour earlier than that today to go birding, haha.
Since it was stupid early in the morning, I made some of this cold shaken with milk in the hopes it would give me a boost. I guess it did, but I would have hated to have seen myself without it!
I ordered a sample of this tea because dates! figs! sesame! sounds like a good tea to me. I don't think I found this one on Steepster beforehand, somehow, because I remember not seeing any reviews. If I had, I might not have ordered it since people talk about smokiness in it and I have no tolerance for smokiness.
The dry leaf smells INTENSE. Very sweet, definitely figs, dates, and nuts. Steeped, the tea started smelling a little smoky, and I was worried. However, this came out ok for me. I think because it's more of an intense roast/toast than it is a charcoal smoke (which often makes me ill!). Nutty and figgy for sure. It's less sweet seeming than I might have guessed, but it works. Similar to Toasted Fig, but still unique. I ended up enjoying this more than I thought I would!
Thanks for clearing things up for me on the smoke! This is one of the few ATR teas I've been interested in, and like you, was hesitant to ever order it (or from ATR in general since very few of their teas seem to appeal to me) since I don't care for smokiness either.
Fjellrev – If you want, I can send you some of my sample. If there are few that appeal you might be better off satiating your curiosity that way :)
Nono, don't worry about it! If I end up liking the Brioche that Sil sent me, I think I'll end up taking advantage of the 20% off sale right now and order samples anyway. :)
My stomach apparently doesn't like it when I wake up really early, which I have to do almost every Friday to teach an early class. Ugh. When I got out of class I wanted something to settle my stomach and I remembered this has citrus and ginger in it. Perfect.
Sweet, citrusy, with a slight ginger kick. Although I have a lemon ginger on green base, I prefer the (green) oolong base because I feel like it gives more body. This may become a somewhat regular post-class tea on early days.
odd—I seem to have stomach issues when I wake up earlier than my body would like as well. I wonder why that is.
Weird. Actually, when I have to get up ridiculously early, the same thing happens to me. I have a feeling it has to do with the increase of ghrelin production when you don't get as much sleep (naturally, I tend to get a lot less sleep when I have to get up earlier than usual, regardless of how much earlier I go to bed).
Alot of people's bodies seem to work best when we get to sleep the sametime every night and get up the same time every day. (Or vice versa as the case might be for some folks.) Myself: for the most part I cannot handle much food when I wake up, and if I can…usually not breakfast food. Now if I have that for lunch (If I've been up for a few hours.) I'm fine with it…though depending.
Cereal-I love having that as a midnight snack. heh.
I had a sachet of this last night at my departmental tea time. I got this along with a few other bags of sachets in my Happy Bag this year. Initially I wasn't enthused about most of them (although this one I did want to try), but I figured out the perfect use for them! I've donated them to tea time because most of the girls there have some fear of loose leaf and never drink the loose leaf I bring. But they seemed more interested in the sachets. One of them had a cup of Chocolate Strawberry Puer and loved it!
Anyway, this tea. I have to say that I was underwhelmed by this. Although the peach flavor was fresh and juicy, it was very light. That normally wouldn't be a problem for me except that the oolong didn't seem to have much flavor either. I mean, what was there was very nice, but I wanted more. Maybe I should try two sachets next time (though I've never had that problem with Lupicia sachets before). Actually it might be the unfiltered water that we use at tea time. That's probably it, so I won't rate it just now. I guess I'll have to try another sachet of this with filtered water.
Nom nom nom. Funny how I often don't care for hazelnut in teas (I love it in candy, liquor, spreads) but that is absolutely not the case here. Creamy hazelnut-vanilla goodness. And that's about all I have to say about this right now.
I am feeling tired and I was suddenly struck with a desire for my most favorite flavored teas. What did I reach for? This one, and Fleurilège by Dammann. My other thought was Caramel-Toffee by Dammann. I guess I should probably be rating them higher than they already are, somehow. This was super almondy today. Love it, and I will be heartbroken when it's gone.
The cold brew of this one was not successful, really. Maybe I just don't like EGC's cold brewed anymore? I used to love them. But the past two I have done have turned out sickly sweet. The first one, I thought it was the licorice root. But I don't think this one has that, so who knows.
This sample came to me from Sil in a surprise Christmas card! Unfortunately the postal service did a good job of completely grinding this one to nearly matcha. Did someone stomp on it??
I kept it cool and a quick steep. It kinda looks like matcha with all that powder floating around in there! It does smell amazing, however. So floral (I'm amazed you liked this one, Sil! ;)). It's a familiar floral but I can't quite place it right now. Lilacs isn't quite right, but I've definitely smelled it in a garden before. The flavor definitely has a bit of a fresh apricot, and I can see where TTC describes an almond-like note. It's fresh and green and lovely. This is quite amazing, even stomped to bits. I may have to order some bao zhong from them when I do get around to making an order.
ETA: Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and rate this one pretty highly. It's really that good, the broken leaf doesn't even matter that much!

Why waste $ 18,000 to call 400 homes? So that is $45.00 for a 3 min phone call and entering it in an excel spreadsheet. I can save the MV Whisman school board some money and lets start a thread here of responses....
on top of the existing PARCEL Tax? NONE...
EVERY HOUSEHOLD in MV has had to scale back spending.... I don't care if schools is schools.... Schools need to also.... I bet private schools are raising tuition in this tough economic environment... Heck 18k could have been spent on a 25% of a teacher instead of this senseless survey......

Platinum Level1 of 8
By Zoe Schaeffer
Beauty trends come and go—and these eight summer looks have about another month before their seasonal expiration date. Try them today and find out how to make them work come fall.
Jamie King's superblond shade is as summery as it gets. To take this look into the cooler months, ask your colorist to blend in a few lowlights for a more natural effect.
Water Fall2 of 8
The wet look is an obvious summer style, worn here by a radiant Joan Smalls, but if the fall runways are any indication, this trend is here to stay. A little extra product will give hair the control that it needs to stand up to the chunky sweaters and lightweight leathers that you'll soon be wearing.
Made in the Shade3 of 8
This summer, the ombre-color style was less extreme than in seasons past. "Using the balayage technique [soft, hand-applied highlights] below the crown creates an organic look," says Warren-Tricomi colorist Kaz Amor of Jessica Biel's slightly bleached-out ends. For fall, he suggests adding warmer tones and dyeing the tips one or two shades darker.
Freshly Squeezed4 of 8
Bright orange nails have been all the rage during beach months. If you want to carry the trend into fall, then choose a hue with more earthy undertones, like the one worn by Jessica Lowndes. (We like Revlon Nail Enamel in Make Mine Mango, $5).
Bright Idea5 of 8
The pink-hair trend is moving into fuchsia territory. Ditch the pastels and bump the jewel-toned hair up a notch, like Amber LeBon, making it a better match for fall's rich shades.
Pastel Palette6 of 8
Jemma Kidd, creator of Jemma Kidd Beauty, says that pastel shadows are best worn as washes of color across the lid, with softly blended edges and no hard lines. Taking a cue from Taylor Swift and adding individual lashes on the corners will accentuate and open the eyes.
Glow On7 of 8
The secret to getting Olivia Munn's back-from-the-beach glow, and extending it into fall, is in the tools you choose. "Apply a shimmery powder with a natural-haired fluffy brush," says Kidd. You'll get lightweight, even color that you can build up as needed.
Lashing Out8 of 8
Flirty lashes teamed with minimal makeup, like Poppy Delevigne's look, is a fresh choice for summer nights. But come fall, a wash of bronzy shadow will add a dose of drama to go with the season's trends.

Guestbook comments from the manager
What a wonderful home. We had some doubts about the bath tubs, but actually there were no problems. Our college age grandchildren loved the area and the house. Friendly neighborhood and feeling of safty..The house was clean and decorated tastefully. The floors were in need of some cleaning, but the rest was spotless. The only problem we had was not understanding the trash pick-up. The trash was full when we got there on Saturday. We thought it was out, but realized it had to be moved to the curb. Hope to spend our next visit at the same house. Thanks for a great time.
