Sea Lion Strandings Up Along So. Calif. Coast This Year
April 5, 2013
By WeatherBug Meteorologist, Andrew Rosenthal
Go There Live:
Marine scientists along the California coast have had their hands full this year, with an unusually high number of sea lion pups becoming stranded along the Pacific shore. What`s not clear is whether the weather is to blame for this.
The California sea lion is typically a sea-faring animal which travels the near-shore eastern Pacific in search of fish such as salmon, anchovy and herring. The most famous pack of California sea lions reside at San Francisco`s Pier 39, where they`ve slept, bellowed and piqued the curiosity of residents and tourists since 1989.
In a typical year, the sea lions beach on the California coast during the late spring months in order to give birth to pups, quickly returning to the sea for feeding trips. During the winter, the young pups will either join their mothers on a hunt or set out on their own.
However, since the start of the year more than 1,100 sea lion pups have washed ashore from San Diego to the San Francisco Bay area. This quantity is more than three times the average for the first three months of the year and higher than typical strandings for the entire year. Worse still, marine scientists are certain that these numbers are only a small fraction of the total number of distressed animals.
The situation became dire enough for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to declare an Unusual Mortality Event along the Golden State`s coastline last week. An Unusual Mortality Event is a broad term, defined by the Federal Marine Mammal Protection Act, as an event that "involves a significant die-off of any marine mammal population," and can be caused by anything from infection to toxins to human interaction. As the seals wash ashore at record levels, sea lion experts in southern California have acted quickly to limit the die-off by rescuing the strongest of these distressed animals. However, the increase has pushed the centers to their limits.
Scientists aren`t completely sure as to why the young animals are heading to beaches. Weather and ocean patterns have shifted since a major El Nino in 1997-98, with the water off California unusually cool. This may have caused the sea lions` fishy treats to relocate to warmer water further offshore or disappear completely.
A private oceanography company in the region has noted an overall decrease in the near-shore fish population. Studies of the seawater along the southern California coast show that populations have dropped to just 22 percent of what they were in the 1970s.
Yet another theory proposed by NOAA is that weather patterns over the past few years caused plankton numbers to shift southward, causing the fish population that feeds upon the plankton to also shift southward and decrease along the California coast. Thus, the sea lions lack a sufficient food supply as they hunt. As a result, the younger sea lions end up hungry at the end of their hunts and return to shore exhausted and unable to swim.
None of the theories offer much hope in the near-term, as it would likely take a year or more for fish populations to recover. As a result, experts anticipate that the strandings will continue at the same rate well into the summer. Further down the line, if it is a matter of a bad spawning year for the fish, next year could see the sea lions` food supply return to normal.

Olivia Wilde lived out every girl's dream when, at 18, she fell in love and married an Italian prince. But, eight years after Wilde and Tao Ruspoli rode off into the sunset, their fairytale came to to an unhappy end and the couple split this past March.
"The trauma of the whole thing has been humbling, and for the first time, I'm a little bit wobbly," the former House star, 27, says in the new issue of Marie Claire. "But I think it's very healthy to spend time alone. You need to know how to be alone and not be defined by another person."
Despite their split, Wilde says she and her ex have managed to stay on good terms. "Even though it didn't work, there's nothing I regret about any of it," she says. "We're friends; his family is my family."
As for the rumors that she's hooked up with everyone from Ryan Gosling to Bradley Cooper to Justin Timberlake, well, she says you shouldn't believe what you hear. In fact, all the speculation about her love life is actually keeping her from getting anywhere in the romance department!
"It makes dating harder," she insists. "You go on one date and everyone thinks you're dating."

Sibiu, România, 9 September 2010
Dear participants,
Let me congratulate you for the idea of this conference and for its subject. Looking at the region where you are organising this meeting, I am certainly not surprised either by the location, or by the chosen theme of the conference. The city of Sibiu – a former European Capital of Culture, surrounded by a beautiful and diverse landscape, rich in traditions, will certainly inspire your debates.
In the next few minutes, in my message, I would like to address four main issues.
First of all, I want the future Common Agricultural Policy to address as much as possible the expectations of the European Union's citizens. The public debate that we have organised in the last few months has shown that the issues you are discussing here today - preservation of habitats with a rich biodiversity, with a high biological value - is one of the themes of concern and interest for European citizens. They want the EU to have a competitive agriculture but they also want an agricultural sector that makes better, more efficient use of natural resources, which performs better in the management of these resources, ensuring farming throughout Europe. Therefore, the discussions, the conclusions you are drawing here, your ideas, will contribute to the definition of the Common Agricultural policy after 2013.
Secondly, High Nature Value landscapes and preserving biodiversity cannot be envisaged independently from their economic, social and environmental dimensions. I cannot imagine protecting biodiversity in these areas without taking into account the challenges that farmers in these areas are facing. The High Nature Value landscapes are under threat not only from intensive agriculture – exploiting the soil, water and vegetation resources - but also from depopulation and land abandonment. For a good management of resources, no extreme is good – neither the ultra-exploitation of the natural resource, nor the abandonment of these resources – soil, vegetation, biodiversity, water, etc. We have to find the right balance between the economic, environment and social dimensions, and if this is met, then intervention through public financial support is entirely justified.
In any case, the Common Agricultural Policy offers the instruments that allow for a rational use of these resources. I hope that the Member States will make better use of the opportunities available, and it is our intention to find new ways to better value these regions.
Thirdly, I believe that it is more efficient to support farmers in these regions to work their land in a way that preserves habitats instead of abandoning human activities in these areas for the preservation of biodiversity. This is one fundamental principle of the Common Agricultural Policy – to provide specific measures to support agriculture (and thereby preserve and develop biodiversity), also in economically difficult areas, but where there might also be a high biological/natural value.
I also want to underline that most, if not all of the financial support for these regions so far has come from the Common Agricultural Policy. Building on this idea of the CAP a sectoral policy with a multi-sectoral approach, I can assure you that this type of regions will be financially supported in the future, maybe even more than in the past. I've already had discussions with my colleague, the Commissioner for Environment, Janez Potočnik and he supports the idea of having an approach which takes into account the environmental policy within the Common Agricultural Policy, together with its economic and social dimensions.
Fourthly, I want to assure you that this type of agriculture will be promoted and supported by the future Common Agricultural Policy. We will do this in two ways.
• On the one hand through measures to stimulate all farmers in Europe to farm with care for habitats and an efficient, sustainable use of natural resources.
• But also through Rural Development programmes, in the second pillar of the CAP, we will offer the member states the possibility to apply well targeted, specific measures to address local or regional challenges and specificities, for a balanced, rational use of the resources in these regions.
Thus, the priorities and measures foreseen in Rural Development programmes after 2013 will not only include financial support for producers working their land in these regions with respect for biodiversity, but also measures to support farmers to sell their production. Perhaps we could use a specific logo for local product coming from these regions, or support local markets, short circuits/direct sales between producers and consumers for the distribution of food products, or allow measures to support small farms, or the activity of groups of producers in these regions respecting certain guidelines.
I believe it is also very important to support farmers to make the best use of all the benefits generated by this kind of High Nature Value landscapes – not only through farming but also eco-tourism, traditional products, local markets and niche markets.
To conclude, I congratulate the organisers of this conference, the ADEPT Foundation. I know the involvement and the commitment of this Foundation for all its work in Romania and more specifically in Transylvania. So again, congratulations for the organisation of this conference and good luck in your work in the future.
Thank you!

The number of layoffs announced at the larger aircraft companies alone has reached nearly 8,000. Many of them are already looking for their next job. More aircraft employees will be finding out this week if they too will be losing their jobs.
Chris Ligi was a manager on the Hawker line in plant four.
"The day I was let go from my position, I said, 'It's industry. It's aviation.' And there are a ton of jobs out there," said Ligi.
He anticipated he could lose his job when the company told employees about a looming second round of cuts.
Like other local aircraft workers, he went to an aviation career fair held late last month in Wichita.
Several companies from across the U.S. were looking for talent.
Ligi found leads which he believes will help him land his next aircraft job. He's already had a couple of interviews.
"There are a few other big companies out there who have contacted me. And I'm waiting on phone calls now. So, life after Hawker? Yes there is," said Ligi.
Traffic from laid-off aircraft workers has increased in recent days at the Wichita Workforce Center at First and Main, where they can get help finding another job or education and training for new work.
Kimberly Dickerson was recently laid off from Cessna after three years with the company. She's ready to get past the sound of aircraft riveting and enter the nursing field.
"It's always needed, not up and down like aircraft is," said Dickerson.
The economic stimulus bill passed by the Senate this afternoon would increase the money the Wichita Workforce Center would receive for job re-training, perhaps as much as $2.5 million.
If you've recently been laid off or are about to be laid off, you should visit the Wichita Workforce Center.

Anyway, this has been 3 of the craziest weeks of my life INCLUDING the time I got married. I cannot express to you the absolute insanity that is my life right now. First it's work, then it's Zumba, then it's running, then it's a FLAT TIRE (fml). However, there is little that brings me peace like whipping up a batch of something delicious.
Enter: Peanut Butter Oreo Fudge
Originally I was going to try making Cookie and Cream fudge, but I realized a little too late that I didn't have white chocolate chips. I took to the trusty Google to help me find inspiration and lo and behold...I found a recipe from Sally's Baking Blog for easy, peanut butter fudge. I also had Oreos (meant for the cookie and cream fudge) and I decided to put the two together.
BEST THING EVER. Not to mention that this recipe makes enough for J to feel like he wasn't jipped AND enough to bring to work. That almost NEVER happens.
So here you are peanut butter lovers - buttery, sweet, fudgey, peanut butter happiness. Also, you can tell from the first two ingredients that this is SUPER low-cal.......... ;)
Peanut Butter Oreo Fudge
Modified from Sally's Baking Addiction
1 cup creamy peanut butter (I used Kraft)
1 cup unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla
pinch of salt
4 cups icing sugar
20(ish) Oreo Cookies, smashed
4-5 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, chopped
Line an 8 inch baking dish with tinfoil. Make sure there is enough so that the tinfoil hangs off the sides (this will help you lift this beautiful magic out once it has set).
In a glass bowl, placed over a pot of boiling water (or a double boiler if you have one), melt the peanut butter and butter together. I chopped the butter up first to get it to melt faster. Continue to stir until it is combined completely (it will be fairly runny at this point). Add the salt.
Using a wooden spoon, stir in the icing sugar. It will seem kind of chunky and weird, but keep stirring until it is nice and thick. Don't worry if it kind of seems like cookie dough, that is a good thing!
Add in the Oreo cookies and make sure everything is evenly combined (no one likes Oreo peanut butter fudge with no Oreo...talk about disappointing).
Press the fudge (it's fudge! Aren't you proud of yourself!?) into the baking dish you prepared. Sprinkle chopped peanut butter cups over top and press into the fudge. Put in the fridge (or freezer if you want to eat it faster) and let set. You'll know it's ready when it feels like fudge...so, hard but not too hard. You know?
Slice and enjoy! Like I said, SUPER low cal, so don't worry if you have a couple pieces ;)
**DISCLAIMER: This fudge is NOT LOW CAL. If anything, it has more calories that you should consume in a meal, so best enjoyed in small dosages...if you can...I won't tell**

"No Dream is too Small When You're in Need"
TORONTO, Nov. 20, 2012 /CNW/ - Today, The Salvation Army announced the national launch of the 2012 Christmas Campaign, an effort designed to raise money and awareness for the millions of Canadians currently living in poverty. This Christmas, The Salvation Army is emphasizing that no dream is too small when you're in need with the introduction of a new, innovative advertising campaign.
The campaign includes a 30-second animated television spot, produced by Grey Canada. It features a young teen in need dreaming of life's necessities—a warm meal, clean clothes and a place to lay her head at night - something that many Canadians take for granted. Other elements of the campaign include radio and out of home advertising, the continued use of new technology and the traditional Christmas kettles on street corners and in stores across Canada.
"We want to encourage all Canadians to dream of a world where everyone has access to life's basic needs," said Commissioner Brian Peddle, Territorial Commander for The Salvation Army in Canada and Bermuda. "We hope this campaign will demonstrate to the donating public that no amount is too small and that every gift makes a big difference in the life of a person in need."
For 130 years, The Salvation Army in Canada has provided hope and dignity for those seeking assistance and will continue to do so this Christmas season, through a series of new initiatives, including:

online through FilltheKettle.com. Using Google Maps technology, visitors to the site can search for one
of the more than 2,000 kettle located across Canada, and make a secure
online donation to that specific kettle with the knowledge that all
money raised in that community will stay in that community. Also
included this year on FilltheKettle.com are the options for donors to host their own virtual kettle, or to host
their own fundraising event, with donations to both going to support
the ongoing work of The Salvation Army.
- Mobile Giving: In a few weeks, The Salvation Army will announce an exciting new partnership that will make donating to kettles this Christmas easier than ever!
"Last year our Christmas kettles raised $21 million dollars, and we hope to meet, or even exceed that number this year," said Commissioner Peddle. "As the need for our services continues to increase, we know that we can count on the continued generosity of Canadians to meet the growing demand."
The Salvation Army will also participate in a variety of events to raise money and awareness for the 2012 Christmas Campaign.
- On Sunday, November 18th, The Salvation Army took part in the nationally televised 2012 Santa Claus Parade in Toronto, ON.
- The Salvation Army will also team up with Running Room Ltd. on Saturday, December 1st, to host the 22nd annual Santa Shuffle. The 5 km Fun Run and 1 km Elf Walk will be held in approximately 39 cities across Canada.
The 2012 Christmas Campaign helps The Salvation Army provide direct, compassionate, hands-on service to more than 1.8 million people in Canada each year, restoring hope and dignity to the most vulnerable in society. The Salvation Army's annual Christmas Campaign has grown into one of Canada's most significant and recognizable annual charitable events. The Salvation Army relies on the support of numerous corporate partners, including and many individual retailers, who allow Christmas kettles to be placed at their stores each year.
The Salvation Army's Christmas kettles can be seen in nearly 2,000 locations across Canada and remain a very effective way to donate and support the ongoing work of the organization. Beyond donating to The Salvation Army's physical Christmas Kettles, donations to the 2012 Christmas Campaign can be made at www.SalvationArmy.ca, by calling 1-800-SAL-ARMY (725-2769) or via mail to The Salvation Army, 2 Overlea Blvd, Toronto, ON M4H 1P4.
Donors can also support the 2012 Christmas Campaign by texting HOPE to 45678 from most mobile carriers in Canada. A $5 donation will be added to your monthly mobile bill.

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

Reworking OpenGL ES In Mesa, Gallium3D
Published on 12 April 2010 08:36 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
11 Comments
In May of last year there were Gallium3D state trackers
published for OpenGL ES 1.1 and OpenGL ES 2.0
. These were among the first major working state trackers for this new graphics architecture, but in the months since they have continued to receive much affection from a few developers and continue to improve. The OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0 support though may now be reworked by Kristian Høgsberg.
Kristian is looking at how to make the situation better when exposing multiple graphics APIs to Gallium3D and at the same time how to expose this GLES work to the Mesa DRI (non-Gallium3D) drivers. Kristian wants to be able to load one DRI driver and then load multiple GL APIs and then also supporting the OpenGL, OpenGL ES 1.1, and OpenGL ES 2.0 APIs through a single state tracker as each of their functionalities are much the same.
This is still a work-in-progress but he's currently seeking feedback on the matter (so far, no responses), but this mailing list thread can be found on the
Mesa mailing list
now at FreeDesktop.org after being moved over from SourceForge over the weekend.

Just to share my first harvest experience. My nugget hop was transferred to a pot this spring due to a soil and light problem. It hasn't produced hops in the past two years so I move it. This was the first year it produced hops. All the cones seemed to mature at the same time. I was only able to harvest one 1 quart zip lock bag full. Sorry my scale isn't working at this time so I wasn't able to weigh them. I dried them on a food dehydrator and vacuum packed them. They now reside in the freezer as I write this. My only question is, is this expected for a first time harvest? I'd love to hear from all you seasoned hop growers here. Thanks for your time.
That's about the amount obtained from the first harvest of my cascade and nugget plants (maybe even less). Watch out though... I got a garbage bag full of hops the year after that! Huge difference from the first to the second year.

Sagittarius women have a vivacious and ebullient personality. Know more about personality traits and characteristics of Sagittarius woman.
Famous Sagittarius Women
Imagine speaking out the truth 24X7? Sounds suicidal, isn't it? Face it or not, all of us tend to speak the lie or a fabricated truth all the time. So, whether it is citing the reason for coming late to work, or not completing the school homework or not turning up for a party, there is some amount of falsehood that we resort to while justifying ourselves. However, the same is not the case with Sagittarian females. Those born under this zodiac sign are too tactless to come up with half-burned truths. In fact, they are the true crusaders of truth and say it the way they see it, raw and blatant. Other than that, Sagittarian females have a vivacious and ebullient personality. They are charming and have the ability to make any man go weak in the knees. However, beware before approaching a Sagittarian woman as extravagance comes naturally to her. Only when you are sure that you would be able to satiate her shopping appetite that you can think of coming closer to her. The following lines further provide details of the personality and characteristic traits, positive and negative, of Sagittarius women. Read on!

Sagittarius Woman Personality Traits & Characteristics
The Bright Side
You met a woman at a friend's party the night before and were completely bowled by her. She captivated your senses like none other with her happy mannerism, her alarmingly frank nature and her fiercely guarded independence. Think no further as it is a Sagittarian girl who has set your heart pulsating. While describing a Sagittarian, she is all of the above and much more. She a complete optimistic who views life positively. This often leads to her having blind faith upon people, who use her for their own needs. However, despite the fact, she tends to rely on each and every person who comes close to her. By nature, Sagittarian women are pleasant, friendly, outspoken and very talkative. Their forthrightness comes from the fact that she has no illusions about the world. They say the way they see it. Though it might seem crude and harsh, they just cannot change the way they are. With a Sagittarian woman by your side, you could only wish that she were not so honest that she is. Sagittarius females are out-and-out enthusiasts. They hate to be pinned down to a particular place or with a particular thing. Boredom is not their cup of tea. Sagittarian women are career oriented and excel in whatever they take up. Their charming manners coupled with intuitive mind helps them complete a plan successfully, ahead of others.
The Dark Side
With the present lifestyle, being a little diplomatic is the order of the day. As such, the outspoken attitude of a Sagittarius female can be quite disturbing and off-putting for people. While holding on to the truth is great in positive circumstances, when things are not favourable, a person speaking out the reality can be quite distressing. Sagittarian females say what they see and most of the times, due to this fall in trouble or invite tough looks of others. They are not deliberately mean but lack the tact and diplomacy that others possess. Their ignorance of playing with words rubs people on the wrong end and causes enemies. Also, though women under this sun sign are calm and composed beings, if a foot stepped wrongly they have the ability to turn into fire spitting dragon. She is not the person who would hesitate to lash back. In matters of love, getting a Sagittarian female to commit is another big issue. Since she is a free bird, marriage to a Sagittarian woman is like chopping her wings of flight and being tied down in the four walls of the house. The concept of settling down can be quite nerve racking for a Sagittarius woman, which explains her flirtatious nature. Financially, Sagittarian women are extravagant beasts and lovers of luxury. They are careless with money and tend to spend every penny they have. So, think twice before you hand over your credit card to her, lest she croses the credit limit!
Romance Quotient
Just like the ocean can't help but rush to the shore, similarly, a Sagittarius woman can't help but get into a relationship. However, if it is long-term commitment that you are looking for, sit back and relax, this centaur-driven female isn't the one who would easily fall in place. Dominated by a free-spirit and a liberated mind, Sagittarius females are known to get in and get out of the relationship too quickly. This arises from the fact that they hate to be confined to a thing, place, time or a relation. Making a Sagittarian commit can be quite tricky as it makes her nervous. In fact, most of the times, you would have to tempt your girl to get her to commit. Sagittarian women are like the boys at play. They are a little hard to catch. But once committed, a Sagittarian woman is what every man dreams of. She is loyal, honest, loving and caring. She is the one who would dutifully be yours and take efforts to make your life happy and satisfactory.
However, pleasing a Sagittarius woman isn't all that easy. And if you are the sissy types of lover, you have no chance to making it to a Sagittarius woman. She looks for a real man who has his ego and does not stand for nonsense. A right balance of politeness and firmness is what you need to have to impress her. But if you don't couple the same by giving her the freedom she desires, forget about having any chance. Sagittarius women are quite independent and love their freedom. And they would not comprise with the same on any grounds. They are quite the sentimental and emotional types but do not show the same due to their shy nature. Sagittarian women are lovely hostess to guests and have the ability to make them feel at home. They are great with kids but their outspoken and blunt nature is something that they have to deal with. To be with the Sagittarian woman, the key is not to change her individuality. Just let her be the way she is and give her the freedom she desires. And she would be the most loving and caring partner you can ever wish for. Her optimism and brightness would brighten your life and make it pleasurable!

I had the best experience with Montway. this was my first experience at shipping a car and I was truly nervous about it. I started out with online chat with Lora D. She remained my contact person and was always available when I needed to speak to her. The company that picked up my car was wonderful. He arrived on specified date, loaded up quickly and got my vehicle to its destination within a short time period. (from Vegas to NY) I would use this company again and WILL reccomend it to… Read Full Review

I contacted Montway because I needed to ship my car from California to Chicago. I was on a time-crunch and also a budget-crunch. I contacted this particular company because it had great ratings. When I asked them for a price quote, they were actually lower than a lot of the 3-4 star competitors. They returned emails promptly, offered all the information I needed, and got my car delivered on time without any damages. I know it is pretty much impossible to get a delivery on the exact day that you… Read Full Review

We booked the reservation on Friday and they were ready to pick up the car on Monday and deliver following Wednesday.

Having never shipped a motor vehicle before, I was a bit apprehensive with the whole process, i.e., finding a competitive price, a reliable transporter, and able to deliver the vehicle when I wanted. Montway Auto Transport more than fulfilled those requirements. They provided the lowest quote for my shipment and arranged to have the vehicle picked up when I wanted and deliver it in a timely manner. After the car was picked up on a Monday, Montway estimated arrival for the following Friday, but… Read Full Review

I was worried about finding an auto transport company but now I will NEVER use anyone but Montway.

Everything about my experience with Montway was positive and simple. I used their online quote system to determine roughly how much it would cost to transport my Acura from FL to Denver. I double checked the quote with 4 other vendors but ultimately decided that Montway would be my best bet. I scoured the web for reviews and took it into consideration. The customer service agent that contacted me locked in my quote and was kind enough to change it when my move date became firm. The driver… Read Full Review

I was very nervous about shipping my car from Maryland to California. It was the first time I had to do something like this, but I had heard about Montway transport from a friend and decided to try them out. They are mainly a broker and will set you up with a private contracting transporter who will take the job. It was very easy reserving a spot on their online form, and then I was notified by email within 24 hours that a transporter had been found to pick up my car a day after I had… Read Full Review

Bar should be open after 11 Breakfast buffet should be better
Concierge Bessie was fantastic. The entire staff was excellent.
No view this time and an average room. Still ok but there is a difference.
Perfect location, nice setting, easy to access wifi, good brakfast, nice bathroom
Nothing, really
Staff are most helpfull and friendly. Great location for the UPenn university.
Second time round that I am staying here and I still think the breakfast is badly presented. Can not get different types of coffee. Like a cafe latte for instance.
Close to Universities Fabulous breakfasts Clean Friendly staff
Coffee in rooms - horrible Noisy light fittings in bathroom Dripping shower In house restaurant - terrible
The parking is to over priced
Location, lobby, rooms, near by U Penn
Staff, breakfast, poor parking, valet parking service, quite expensive and parked at the street
Check in and check out we're very quick and easy. Though pricy, valet parking made the weekend easier. The bed was very comfortable. Being able to request turn down time and extra toiletries on the iPad was perfect!
Room service was way overpriced.
We loved the bkfast, room was clean, staff was so friendly, and location was perfect
The curtains in the room did not close all the way
Good size and well decorated rooms. Excellent location.
Expensive parking
Thought the staff at the reception were very friendly and helpful.
I thought the breadfast was not very well presented and not much choice. I have stayed in many other Hiltons around the world and the breakfasts there were very much more delicious.
Very spacious rooms
Breafast is at the lowest end in terms of diversity and quality
He staff was outstanding, I staye at this hotel twice and both times it's been wonderful.
The only thing I could complain about is the fact that you have to pay for the parking, or that there is limited parking in the vicinity of the hotel.
I found the management exceptionally understanding of our needs. Beyond the call of duty we were granted the requested room number as well.
While it was good to get treated well for the "discounted" rate, Philly hotel prices are exorbitant. Even with the budget I would feel quite frivolous to expend upon the actual double room price. Do this! But do it using booking.com as we did or another booking resource.
Warm reception by hotel staff and complimentary breakfast.
Beddings were not changed within the 7 nights period.
- easy to get to Center City on trolley or subway. - clean and spacious room with lots of amenities - convenience store (Wawa) right around the corner
Loved the location - central to both Drexel and U Penn, close to some wonderful shops and eateries. Staff was gracious and hotel was beautiful.
Gym, friendly staff, heart of university city, safe location, clean, nice assortment up restaurant and subway access nearby.
Overpriced meals
Loved the room, the location the staff.
Faucet in the bathroom was leaking, some furniture needed to be changed being that they where scuffed to a point that you can tell very quickly. They could had included the breakfast on the price.
Bessie is a treat. The help downstairs with taxi service. The friendliness of the room service staff. The speed and efficiency of check out.
No teaspoon at coffee machine to stir with. Think breakfast should be an inclusive rate. So many tv channels but so many had restricted on. Don't see purpose of having so many when only a few can be watched. Rather only display those available.
No toothpaste and slipper in the room
This hotel was clean and comfortable. I love that pictures on the web were current of the hotel. Will recommend.
Valet parking was pricey. $40 a day.
Being that this was my first time traveling outside of my hometown and my first time staying in a hotel, it wasn't a bad experience. I was impressed by the layout, even though the room was a lot smaller than I had imagined. The bed was comfy, the couch inside the movie was comfy as well. The bathroom was probably my favorite part of the room. The glass shower was unexpected as was the sink layout. The key car operated room was unexpected as well and very interesting, despite a few inconsistencies. I also enjoyed the iPad ordering service.
The refrigerator didn't work (I used ice to cool what I wanted to keep cool). That was probably the only thing I didn't enjoy.
Lovely, comfortable hotel with very friendly staff. We were in town for a regatta and found the location convenient and away from the craziness of downtown. Will be returning for our future trips to Philly.

sweet, werdum should get first shot at that belt because he will likely be around more than overeem(and he has a win over him already) plus they got randleman, i would love to see overeem beat the shit out of tim, sylvia should fight for strikeforce too since he is nonexclusive instead of calling out shamrock and fighting old boxers.
Fabricio Verdum Signs With Strikeforce, Fight With Alistair Overeem An Option
Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker welcomes newly signed Fabricio Verdum on stage to say a few words. While their are rumors that Verdum he will face Strikeforce heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem on June 6, Coker was quick to state that he was looking for another opponent for Verdum's debut.
Will Alistair Overeem fight on June 6?
We're trying to work it out. It's not guaranteed, but we'll try to put it together.
Who would his opponent be?
That hasn't been determined yet.
Did you just sign Fabricio Werdum?
Yeah, but that's not a fight necessarily we feel we'd have to do first.
Frankly, aside from Fabricio Werdum I'm not sure you have any heavyweights who could give Alistair much of a test?
Well, there are some other free agents out there, and guys fighting with other companies who aren't exclusive. So we'll explore those options before we make the announcement of who he's fighting. [Fanhouse]

Dixon, the Rays' 10th-round pick in the 2010 Draft, was suspended for 50 games without pay following a second violation for a drug of abuse. The 20-year-old was hitting .193 with a homer and 14 RBIs in 38 games for Class A Short-Season Hudson Valley.
Albaladejo, who was with the Gulf Coast League Nationals, tested positive for Methylhexaneamine. The converted second baseman signed with Washington as a free agent on July 1 out of Florida Atlantic University, where he hit .358 in helping FAU capture a Sun Belt Conference championship this past season.
Methylhexaneamine is a substance originally intended to be used as a nasal decongestant but is banned by Major League Baseball. It's believed to increase focus and energy. Side effects include nausea and stroke. The drug has been linked to some Minor Leaguers over the past two years since it's an ingredient in the pre-workout supplement Jack3d.
Both suspensions are effective immediately.
Payne Jr., a free agent who was released by the Pirates on July 13, was also suspended after his second violation for a drug of abuse. His suspension will be effective immediately upon his signing with another Major League organization.
