Rated 5 out of 5 by Carol20 An Über chic hotel Our family's home-away-from-home hotel, it has become our favorite among all the other hotels in hongkong. From the moment you enter their elegant front doors, you'll be greeted by this wonderful smell, a signature scent of w hotels, to the super chic lobby that's a "happening" place to the amazingly stylish modern rooms and very friendly staff, this hotel is worth your every dime spent and more. November 10, 2011
Rated 3 out of 5 by KR11 Trendy but not comfortable staff were very nice and friendly. hotel was trendy but not comfortable, the bar is very pretentious. the pool - AWESOME. "the kitchen" restaurant was like a canteen and VERY loud with families - not for an alone business traveller. Dry Cleaning - AWFUL - had to be sent back to be redone and was still bad. Careful they bill your card for items you dont take after you check out!! November 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by DavidA Always Pleasurable A few things the hotel couldn't do: 1. Upgrade me to a suite, as hotel almost full. but good room anyway with nice Ocean view. 2. Clear the rain so we could enjoy the poolbar for an apertif 3.serve the fantastic light lunch buffet in the livingroom on saturday. Yah, soo what. Great hotel. Like it a lot. Convenient, good quality, great beds, good sound system. I'll be back November 21, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Autopickem As good as any Luxury Collection I have been to Got a cool corner room with a great view. Inside and outside of the room, the details at this hotel are as good as any Luxury Collection I have ever stayed at.. Clean and Comfortable, this makes the hotel worth the price. Did I mention you can get her from the airport with no transfer needed..The only con is that the lighting and curtain controls takes some time getting use to June 3, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by MeePoon Another wonderful W This hotel is beautiful and the staff are very nice and capable. I loved the hotel amenities and the nightly chocolates are not only delicious but very cute shaped as gold balls. My only suggestion for improvement is to keep the gym a little cooler and make the room's television control easier to work. I wish I had more time to enjoy the hotel but had to work! March 19, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by SunnyWang Not worth of 6 stars This is not a good enough experience for the stay at W HongKong which is 6 stars level as called.No more quilt,No welcome gift or recognition to Pt member,Attitude is not good enough for room service guy,Canteen is noisy…Not as good as other 5 stars SPG hotels in China mainland.Will not come again in the future and not recommended to friends…. November 27, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by bdraco Fantastic Experience This is easily in the top 5 properties I have ever stayed at. I wouldn't even consider staying anywhere else in Hong Kong after my recent stay. The hotel co-located with Kowloon station and the Elements mall which makes it on of the most accessible and convient properties in Hong Kong. Be sure to check out the breakfast buffet and wet deck. October 23, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by matthew27 Fantastic The W HK is really great. I stay there quite a bit and they recognize me by name and also invariably upgrade me. They really go above and beyond from the doorman to reception to management. The biggest drawback is location. It is about as convenient as possible to get to HK island for being in Kowloon, but it is still not ideal. December 26, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by CA300 A Truly Memorable Experience I just spent 17 nights (and survived a typhoon) at the W Hong Kong, and have to say that every aspect of my stay was absolutely superb. The hotel staff went over and above on every occasion to exceed my expectations. You could tell that they genuinely cared you were there, and would do everything in their power to help make you feel at home. I've stayed at hundreds of SPG properties around the world and W Hong Kong by far has been the best when it comes to SPG Platinum recognition. There were a ton of great perks that seem to be unique to this location. Not to mention, some really nice touches, like generous suite upgrades and full size Bliss products in the bathroom. The attention to detail across every function of the hotel was something that really stood out to me. Peter and his team have done a fantastic job of taking the W vision to a new level in Hong Kong. I'm looking forward to staying here again on my next visit and would highly recommend this property. September 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by PartsUnknown Keep Coming Back W Hong Kong is a home away from home. I have visited Hong Kong at least ten times over the past few years and have regularly, and eagerly, returned to W. The rooms and facilities are consistently fresh and invigorating, and appeal to colleagues, friends and my mother alike! I am regularly welcomed by staff who remember my drink or meal order, even if I haven't visited for months. The beds are the most comfortable I have ever slept in, so much so that I am ordering one myself. The WET deck and the gym offer excellent facilities with a view of the harbour that obviously cannot be matched from properties on the Island itself. Although the food does not rate as highly as elsewhere in Hong Kong, it is perhaps one of the most competitive foodie cities in the world - but this should not dissuade would-be diners. It is often said that the mark of a fine culinary technician involves elevating the simple things - try their club sandwich (especially after a big night out!) I have regularly been checked into my room within an hour of landing, and checking out is a breeze with friendly and helpful reception and porter staff. From time to time I have had issues with room allocations, but those have been quickly and easily remedied upon alerting hotel staff to the problem, who are always pleasant and happy to assist. Hospitality is, after all, a human endeavour, and staff do not know the issues patrons face unless and until they are informed so that the issue can be fixed. I routinely recommend W Hong Kong to friends and colleagues who visit Hong Kong for the first time. W is not your standard, run-of-the-mill hotel. It is fun and vibrant and whimsical. For those who delight in that notion, your expectations will be readily exceeded. For those who reject the idea, the very nature of the hotel will defy your desires. I am yet, however, to encounter someone who hasn't been seduced by the thrill of W Hong Kong. July 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Thakniki Great Location/Experience From landing at HKG to checking in at the W never takes more than an hour - can't beat the convenience. Excellent rooms with great views and the team is always flexible with room upgrades for SPG guests. I normally do the continental breakfast which has more than everything one can ask for. October 29, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by FastZZ5 Customer Service Needs Improvement Generally I had a good stay at W Hong Kong with the exception of one particular unfortunate experience. I had inquired about airport transportation. The attendant booked the Audi car service for me, but did not tell me the price or the cancellation policy. I received a call later that evening confirming my reservation which also did not discuss the cancellation policy. The morning of my departure I had a change of plans and needed to cancel. I called immediately but the attendants gave me a really hard time about canceling the service. They referenced the cancelation policy that required 24 hours notice. Given that I booked less than 24 hours ahead of my departure this could not have been possible. When I checked out the attendant confirmed that the car service had been cancelled and I would not be charged; however my credit card was charged and I will not have to engage in a dispute through my credit card. I found this service to be unsatisfactory. I would not have booked the car service if I had known the cancellation policy, given that my plans were uncertain. April 13, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by prad overpriced The staff seems to be inexperienced and do not have the finesse of a 5 star deluxe hotel..Had to downgrade myself from cool corner room to a fabulous room, because of not so good view from the supposedly prized room.There was confusion whether the wifi was free or not, with different staff saying different things.no water or welcome drink was offered to us, though later we discovered that it was placed opposite other check in counter. The harbour view from fabulous room was good. the pool on 76th floor was good with infinity pool feeling, but again no changing rooms were available there.The lobby disappoints. August 4, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by RafKam Awesome W This is one of the best Ws I have ever stayed at. Service was great from start to finish, had a great large corner room with views of the bay (albeit obscured by the massive building in front) thanks to the platinum upgrade. The property is beautiful, with a great swimming pool area, great gym and very happening lobby bar. Concierge was hit and miss: one guy was great, the other guy and girl not so much, but always willing to help anyway. Location was probably the weak point. Despite it being located within the upmarket Elements shopping mall, complete with supermarket for takeaway meals, and having the airport express stopping right there, it was still a little bit in the middle of nowhere, being slightly too far to walk to most points of interest, but not a long enough cab ride for most drivers. If you're there on a Sunday, don't miss the all you can eat dim sum buffet at a very reasonable price, although it finishes very early (10:30AM, I think). However, would definitely stay again, despite it recently being bumped up a SPG category. April 17, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Gigaset Too Expensive Had to stay another night which was not booke before, payed almost the double for a room which was a lower quality. Tried to negotiate, but no chance! Would not book it again. Sorry to say, but really low performing.... February 21, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by jll888 The hotel has a great breakfast buffet choice Really enjoy the buffet breakfast here during our stay in W Hong Kong. The choices were great and the food presentation was very attractive and unique. Although the price is a bit costly for breakfast but is worth a try. October 2, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Claud99 Superb comfort and friendly staff Second stay in W hotel HK and the service standard remains high. Staff were very friendly. Gym equipped with sufficient machines and instructors were equally friendly and helpful. Will definitely choose W in HK again. November 26, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Susaninasker AB FAB in Hong Kong Absolutely fantastic hotel. The staff is Wonderful, dinner buffet the best I´ve ever had, beds are clouds of heaven and the shopping at Elements mall directly underneath the hotel fab. I am going back - soon I hope! March 10, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rich2809 A great hotel Traveling as much as I do, staying in as many hotels as I do, I can honestly say that the W Hong Kong is one of the very best hotels in the region. It makes traveling exciting again, great food, great staff. February 2, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by CWLyon Cool Hotel but better locations in HK If you are making a quick transfer or want a party hotel then W is good choice. Not great if you want to spend a few days around HK as the location is awkward and you can easily walk anywhere. March 27, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by torimommy i love w hongkong! we spent three days at the Sheraton Macau, but I was too hard in Macau However, during their stay in Hong Kong w I survived again. Thank you very much for the kindness of the manager Sammy. November 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by AmyNFamily Great Hotel and Great Location We traveled with our children (6 and 9 years) to Hong Kong and would highly recommend this hotel. It is very clean, great atmosphere and quite convenient. We really enjoyed our stay here. November 27, 2011
Rated 2 out of 5 by J8887 Dirty Bathroom over all the hotel was satisfactory, BUT my room's shower room and bathroom's tiles were extremely dirty with white residue. And would recommend free wifi for hotel guests in their rooms September 9, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Caj0823 I didn't want to leave! I had a great stay at the W Hong Kong, and can't wait to come back next month. I wish the pool was open later, a late night swim with that view would be amazing! Over all I Loved it.... October 4, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Renz Water and Aircon When I arrived at the room the aircon was broken and then at night when i came back after dinner, there was no HOT water. For a 5 star hotel, i expect better August 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by purebluelim W hotel had made my stay fabulous !!! I need to sincerely thanks to Billy of the W hotel for helping me to locate my lost IPAD in my room. They had been very helpful and attentive !!! Defintiely a great stay November 15, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by tdsports31 The room was great, I wanted to spend more nights! I only stayed one night and it was a late arrival and early departure, but it was good enough to book another night this week. This time I'll get to try breakfast!! June 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Masamune Great Experience Friendy and attentive staff. Stunning view from my room on the thirty-something-th floor. Funky design and hi-tech facilities. What else could I ask for more? June 3, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by stevehkg Great Services and Great location Convenient located., easy to access to shopping, 5 mins to Central and I really the design and decoration when you walk in the lobby of W Hong Kong. November 24, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kelvin81 5-star and nothing less Check-in was speedy & efficient and the room was ready at 8am!!! I had requested an early check-in but I know this is subjected to availability. I was very blessed to be able to get a room at such an early hour! Special mention to the guest relations manager, Alex, as well as the front desk staff, Francis, for making my check-in and stay a pleasant and enjoyable one! The cool corner room is huge is size and comes with full amenities. It commands a breathtaking view of both the cityscape as well as the beautiful Victoria Harbour. Even the ensuite bathroom commands such a view! The rooftop swimming pool is also very impressive. I simply love lazing on the sundeck as well as doing my laps in the pool. One word: AWESOME! Its location is perfect, with the Kowloon MTR station located adjacent to it. Guests can also enjoy in-town check-in service at the station if they choose to take the Airport Express. I think this is really convenient! All in all, W Hotel is truly amazing and impressive and I won't hesitate returning for more stays in the future. They edge out many hotels out there not just in terms of its hardware but also in its software - the staff! Thumbs up! June 18, 2012

Tutoring Lessons in person and online for German/French; Beginner's/Intermediate/Advanced Lessons; Personal Program; Learning all language skills; language correction and speaking guarantee; focused on conversational learning; grammar included; quick test in coversation.
The experienced tutors at Pi Learning Centre use their Beta math program to bolster pupils' confidence by customizing rigorous mathematics instruction to each student's needs and learning style. Throughout four sessions, offered twice a week for two weeks, students in grades 1–12 and their tutors defang multiplication monsters through specially tailored worksheets, exercises, and drills. Typically, each teacher oversees the work of six pupils to ensure that each student receives personal attention. The centre's focus on foundational skills and memorization, which is reinforced by assigned homework, fans out to other academic subjects and may incur a reversal in the direction of shiny apples from schoolteacher to student. Tutors foster further inspiration for numerical prowess with the Pi point prize chart, which awards exercise-completing students with a booty-gathering rewards card.
The staff members at Sylvan Learning's numerous study facilities understand that each child learns differently. Therefore, they don't try to implement a uniform tutoring system; instead, they design custom lesson programs based on the results of standardized testing, diagnostic tools, and one-on-one interviews.
Tutors work with students from kindergarten through grade 12, illuminating topics ranging from basic reading and writing to remembering complex algebraic formulas without having to scribble them on your hand. Many of Sylvan's instructors work in local schools, so they are intimately familiar with common curricula and understand how to gear lessons toward optimal results.
KMT The Learning Group's licensed educators, social workers, psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists, and business professionals help students of all ages—including adults in the professional world—through academic tutoring, workshops, and technology training. They specialize in helping children with learning disabilities, ADHD, Asperger's syndrome, and autism, and they pay particular attention to clients dealing with big life changes, such as divorce or trauma.
More than three decades ago, educator Larry Martinek set out on a mission to develop a curriculum that would radically change the traditional approach to teaching math. Noting a "disconnect between students' basic skills training and the curriculum they [must] master in the years to come," Larry created an original teaching method designed to turn students into miniature mathematicians capable of thinking critically to solve problems. His approach, which he describes as the cultivation of number sense, strives to sharpen students' math instincts, rather than drill them with repetitive, memory-based exercises or force them to blackmail accountants to crunch the numbers. Soon after students began using Larry's method, their test scores began to rise. In the spring of 2002, Larry's dream came true. Peter Markovitz and David Ullendorff, leaders in the education industry, made Larry and his curriculum the driving force of Mathnasium. Larry introduced his curriculum as the Mathnasium Method.
Today, Mathnasium centers can be found throughout the world. Informed by Larry's visionary innovations, the program's tutors give personalized coaching that focuses on bolstering critical thinking through written materials and mental math, forsaking many of the teaching tools found in a traditional classroom. In addition, the tutors also focus on boosting students' enthusiasm for the subject, helping them overcome a lack of confidence in the classroom or their innate fear of prime numbers.
Much like the familiar fishing adage, Mission Possible Tutors believes that if you help a student with homework, they learn for a day, but if you help them create their own strategies for overcoming learning obstacles, they will be prepared for a lifetime of education. During study sessions, tutors set specific goals to help children develop problem-solving skills, build confidence, and cement their own personal study strategies. Mission Possible's areas of expertise include ESL, reading, writing, spelling, math, problem solving, study skills, and science.

This probably would have been a very enjoyable stay except the managing director of the hotel was extremely rude after only my 3rd day to make it worse it was his own mistake and so i moved to another hotel. If it had not been for him i would have stayed for the full duration. As it happens i moved to an even better hotel yards away called hotel citta studi where all members of staff were extremely pleasant friendly and helpful. With nice sized and very clean rooms.

i WOULD RECOMMEND the hotel to people who want to stay for more than 1 week, and/or do not like to spend money on eating out. Very nice environment outside the hotel, a nice garden, clean and quiet area.

BookScan's Top 20 Graphic Novels for August 2008
'Watchmen' Continues to Dominate
Published: 09/04/2008 12:00pm
Traditional American-published graphic novels continued to dominate graphic novel sales in bookstores for the second month in a row according to the BookScan Top 20 Graphic Novels chart. Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen remained the top title; since the debut of the trailer for the Watchmen movie with The Dark Knight on July 18th, sales of the Watchmen graphic novel have been truly phenomenal (see "A Million Copies of Watchmen").
These rankings, provided by Nielsen BookScan, track the bestselling
For the second straight month five Batman-related titles made the top 20 list, with four of them in the top ten (including the #2 and #3 spots), all of which testifies once again to the powerful impact of The Dark Knight movie itself on graphic novel sales. American-published titles accounted for half of the top 20, down one from last month, but it doesn't appear that this occidental dominance of the list is the result of declining manga sales; rather it seems to reflect the enormous effect of the theatrical presentation of The Dark Knight (along with the Watchmen trailer, it is linked to 7 of the ten "American" titles) and to a lesser extent Star Wars: The Clone Wars (linked to two titles).
On the manga side Viz Media's Naruto remains the dominant force with four volumes in the top 20. Vol. 31 appeared on this list as the #12 bestselling title in bookstores before its scheduled release date; Diamond accounts aren't receiving it until this week.
Viz Media's Death Note #1 is the only initial volume of a long-running series in the top 20, while the same publisher's Rosario+Vampire appears to be consolidating its position as perhaps the strongest series to debut in 2008 so far. Tokyopop's Fruits Basket remains the top shojo manga in the American market, but this month it was Del Rey, not Tokyopop with three titles in the top 20 including Kitchen Princess Vol. 7, Tsubasa Vol.18, and the Dean Koontz-based OEL manga In Odd We Trust, which remained on the list for the third straight month.
In August DC Comics and Viz Media tied with seven titles each followed by Del Rey with three, Dark Horse with two and Tokyopop with one.

Delegates not showing up for conventions?Submitted by the_chiefe71 on Sun, 04/22/2012 - 23:28
So let me get this straight:
We have "Get out the vote" GOTV programs for ordinary voters in caucuses and primaries.
But we had problems with our own DELEGATES showing up for CD conventions in Missouri?!? How can this be possible, it is incomprehensible! Don't have a basic program of "Get out to show up for convention" for delegates?
We had 10000 people showing up at UCLA with kids climbing in trees to see the President. We had over 6000 people at rally in a place like Berkeley. There were kids climbed up on roof of little structure next to the library to see him, because they couldn't get a good viewing spot in crowd. I know, I saw them with my own eyes that night. We had over 4000 people in atrocious weather in Philadelphia today.
Clearly, we have the most passionate and knowledgeable supporter base, Obamney cannot come anywhere close to it. The numbers are also there, don't let anyone tell you that. (Recent head-to-head Polling data confirms this.)
In light of this, I cannot possibly imagine failure of DELEGATES to show up for conventions. We're not talking of ordinary voters here. What's going on, is there something the campaign could be doing more about this?
- Login to post comments
Delegates need to stay in touch with other Ron Paul delegates. It is motivating for them to have others who make it a point to go to all the conventions. Sometimes it takes a trip across the whole state to get to some of the conventions and it is good to have RP traveling buddies.
Conventions aren't like
Conventions aren't like parties. Rallies are.
Forget showing up for what could be a long delegate selection process. 90% of those people in the trees won't even walk across campus to VOTE.
Some people just don't care enough.
I have a friend who loves Ron and I gave her all the info on the County convention and she even thanked me and said she would go. I call her today to see if she went and she said no because she had friends over. Pathetic! Bring your friends if that's what it takes! I'm tired of excuses and I do not have time for arm chair activists. If you want to make a difference you must identify solid,committed supporters. It's too late to win this any other way when it comes to delegates.
On a positive note,my mother(63yo) showed up to her convention and is now a solid delegate to State.Her strategy was to flatter the delegation with humor. When she was interviewed(yes,interviewed) by her precinct County Chair,she said,"I don't have a teleprompter,but I take good notes!",which got a very strong response and laughter.
Play their game long enough to change it.
That's the kind of stuff
That's the kind of stuff about person who didn't show up which pisses me off to no end. How could she "love" Ron, but blow it off? Such people are motivated enough to become delegate, but not showing up? Clearly they don't have a clue of how much is at stake and so-called "love Ron" is just superficial. Had I been in that situation, the date and time would've been on my mind for a month.
Immoral funding of Military Industrial Complex by Federal Reserve and US taxation system must stop!!!! End illegal/unconstitutional wars! Preserve US currency!
So let me try to understand
So let me try to understand this about Missouri. I'm all confused:
I heard we had close to sweep in St. Louis City caucus and Jackson County (Kansas City). There was some other smaller Missouri county in which won - Greene or something like that?!? Everyone knows about the big sweep we had in St. Charles.
So the understanding was Kansas City, St. Louis and St. Charles county are big bulk of population of Missouri. By controlling these big caucuses, we were supposed to win Missouri.
What did winning/sweeping those caucuses have to do with yesterday's Congressional District conventions? Is that like apples vs. oranges when it comes to delegates? This is way too confusing. Pls clarify if we may still have good chance in state convention due to those earlier wins.
Immoral funding of Military Industrial Complex by Federal Reserve and US taxation system must stop!!!! End illegal/unconstitutional wars! Preserve US currency!
Its still up in the air
About half of Missouri delegates are decided at congressional district level, the rest at the state convention.
The St. Louis city caucus was won, but not St. Louis county. St. Louis will contribute 1 national delegate though.
The Kansas City district was won and is sending all their 3 for Paul.
Unfortunately the St. Charles county mass was diluted, split into two congressional districts. We lost both of them.
It's still possible for Paul to take the majority of Missouri delegates if we win at the state level. Depends on who Santorum people want to go with.
Ouch, this gives me shivers!
Ouch, this gives me shivers! I had considered Missouri all locked up due to those earlier "supposedly big due to population density" victories.
Looks like a *LOT* of work (by whom? grassroots? campaign?) still needed to be done to sway those non-Romney or Santorum delegates.
Immoral funding of Military Industrial Complex by Federal Reserve and US taxation system must stop!!!! End illegal/unconstitutional wars! Preserve US currency!
I hadn't heard that there were problems with people showing up
In district 3 there were plenty of alternates for the delegates that didn't make it. We had 13 delegates not show from St. Charles I think, but they were all filled. I'm pretty sure all spots were filled from all other counties as well. I was an alternate ready to move up if necessary, but our slate was full. We just didn't have numbers to beat both the Santorum and Romney together even with the full 88 from St. Charles.
That wasn't the issue
That wasn't the issue yesterday-we all worked hard, and made sure the delegates showed up-Romney and Santorum teamed up together in our district and still barely beat us-I think our biggest issue is still ignorance-some folks just cannot use their own minds to do what they know they should, and will be good little party folks and vote for who they're told to vote for. I knew a couple from my county who were uncommitted and had been Santorum supporters, so I asked who they were voting for-they told me Romney-I said "you really think he can win against Obama?" they said "No, I don't think anyone can win against him." Its that ignorant mindset that caused us to lose out in our district. Even so, it was very close, so the numbers have really grown a lot for us since 4 years ago. If we would've had just a few more, we would have won, so close, that I overheard a Romney supporter breathing a sigh of relief as he gave the reports over the phone and told them how close it was-that they barely beat us. It was terribly disappointing, we all worked so hard, but at least we know we did our best.
Discussion 1 on 1 is not always helpfull. some people argue for
the sake of it.
We can only win when we sway a good chunk of the Santorum supporters.
And this is on a large scale only possible with the comparison sheets.
easy to read. After that read people are prepared to hear about Paul.
It cant be that they move from Santorum to Romney...
Comparison Sheets romney - Paul for free:
Thx much, thank you so much
Thx much, thank you so much for working hard and making sure delegates show up. Obviously as you know, too much is at stake and there hasn't been an election in 100 years when such a good chance to push back establishment.
We should push back the scum in state convention.

counts especially when it's Paul vs Romney,Santorum, Gingrich.
In at least two district caucuses, if only 1 more shows up we take all in Minn, and if 3 more show up we take a district in MO.

This report responds to a Congressional request for additional information related to the May 2, 2006 Congressional hearing entitled FBI Oversight. Our responses are based largely on information contained in our published report, entitled Federal Bureau of Investigation: Weak Controls over Trilogy Project Led to Payment of Questionable Contractor Costs and Missing Assets, GAO-06-306.
As discussed in our statement at the hearing, unless the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) strengthens its controls over contractor payments and purchased equipment, future projects, including the new Sentinel project, will be highly vulnerable to same types of issues that plagued the Trilogy project.

Change the windshield wipers. Good experience overall. Will I receive a final bill, online ?
Had a few problems with my key card but finally got worked out.
Was told a different drop off than what I was expecting when I signed up for the U-haul.
horrible customer service the equipment was crappy when it broke down it took them over 6 hours to find it and to try to repair it they were unable to repair it so we were stuck without a u-haul in my stuff was locked in the back of the U Haul
Customer service by the representative was horrific!! Her attitude was just plain nasty! She's clearly not happy with her job and not be helping customers!!
The girl who waited on me was pleasant and amazingly efficient. However, the girl at the next counter was literally yelling at a customer who was on her phone (yes, it was rude), but customers should never be spoken to that way. She said to her, "Oh, now you're going to be inpatient with me when I had to wait for you to get off the phone. I'll take however long I need." Even after the customer left, she kept complaining about this woman until I said, "A customer should never be spoken to this way..period." She ignored me. Then the customer came in and said she didn't know which truck it was. The clerk said, "The pick up truck you rented. The truck number is right on your receipt." UGH! It's too bad that this employee paints this picture for your entire location. There are too many good UHauls to go to--I don't need to hear this. If one of my employees had spoken this way, she'd have been out of a job by the end of the evening.
No real customer service they just want u in and out that's it, equipment was trash but what do u expect!
Very nice facility. I have used them before. They have a wide variety of vehicles and other equipment to choose from and a convenient key drop-off for arriving after hours.
Some computer issues during my pick up made for a slow check out. However equipment was in excellent condition functioned properly and available. The return was Great. All I had was an appliance dolly. I was able to bring it in and drop it off without waiting so could go get my daughter from school. Moving always takes longer than you think it should.
Erin was amazing. She was very personable caring and friendly. We will miss her.
Great place. Staff very nice! Really busy location!!
The field manager Quan was exceptional with his customer service by resloving a misunderstanding. I know things happen but its nice to know he actually cared enough to make it right. Thanks!
Need to make sure that the roof doesn't leak or make customer aware of the problem
Customer service was excellent however the truck they gave us needed some work... there were all kinds of noises that didnt sound good coming from it but it did its job so.... Uhaul... fix your trucks or get new ones!
The rentals clearly are not properly maintained. I had to return one rental because the brakes and steering were not functioning properly, only to receive another rental which also had issues. Also, the manager did not offer any type of discount or extension of the rental time for the inconvenience. My move could not even get started until Saturday as opposed to Friday evening due to issues with the initial rental.
Give customer option on equipment that takes up space on the truck, such as Blankets and dolly.
I ordered a dolley.. There was no dolley on the truck. This caused a two hour delay in our move...When I returned the vehicle I was told ,well at least you weren't charged for it..... Well that's good for you that I wasn't and a little humility that you screwed up a part of my move would have been nice.
The truck worked great. Thank you.
Everything was great at this location.
We thought everyone was wonderful.
Check in staff was excellent and fast. Gas gauge seemed rigged against me. I only traveled 27 miles and I had to put in 6 gallons of gas to get the gauge back to where it was. That's 4.5 MPG. I know those trucks get at least 8- 11MPG. I was frustrated about putting 6 gallons of gas back in the tank, but I knew if I took it back with the gauge low I would be charged even more. Other than that it was fine.
CSRs were GREAT --- got us in and out and back in and out quickly and efficiently
Easiest self-move ever. Knowledgable, friendly staff. Truck and auto transport worked like a dream. I had never driven a truck with a trailer before, but would not hesitate to do it again. I dare say that it was a fun experience.
Service was friendly and prompt. The ladies at the counter were very nice, efficient and knowledgeable about the product. Will definitely use this location in the future.

If you're looking for an MFA photography program, studying in NYC at SVA is the right choice.
- Extensive and innovative courses in all aspects of still and moving imagery
- Creating and understanding new technologies, criticism, and professional practices for success in a changing world
- We draw faculty, lecturers, mentors, and advisors from a worldwide creative network
- Merit-based scholarships available
The MFA Photography, Video and Related Media Department at the School of Visual Arts is the premiere program for the study of Lens and Screen Arts. For more than 26 years, the department has produced remarkable graduates who have flourished as exhibiting artists, journalists, curators, scholars, and teachers. New York City is the hub of an invaluable network that provides creative and professional support that students require throughout their matriculation and long after graduation, as they continue to pursue their goals.
This program champions multimedia integration, interdisciplinary activity, and provides ever-expanding opportunities for lens-based students; we continually push the boundaries of the techniques, theory, and practice of the new technologies. Our students are encouraged to rethink their own assumptions and engage an enlightened audience, not only visually, but also contextually. We encourage the critical thinking necessary for students to expand their ideas and make notable contributions to the larger visual arts culture. The department's celebrated faculty actively engages students in contemporary and responsible creative initiatives, including experimental, narrative or documentary video, installation and conceptual art, tableau, and real-world-witness photography.
The camera has always been a multidisciplinary tool that encompasses science, arts, and the humanities. Today's students are engaged in the management, creation, and understanding of not just how to produce, but how to interpret the image. They are required to read images through the protocols of different disciplines, as well as create new means to make them. Mastery of the "vision machines" is the stuff of their professional practice. A new artist is an interlocutor who enables others to create and see.

DEFINITION of '28/36 Rule'
A rule-of-thumb for calculating the amount of debt that can be taken on by an individual or household. The 28/36 Rule states that a household should spend a maximum of 28% of its gross monthly income on total housing expenses and no more than 36% on total debt service, including housing and other debt such as car loans. This rule is used by mortgage lenders and other creditors to assess borrowing capacity, the premise being that debt loads in excess of the 28/36 yardstick would be difficult for an individual or household to service and may eventually lead to default.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS '28/36 Rule'
For example, an individual with a monthly income of $5,000 who adheres to the 28/36 Rule would be able to spend a maximum of $1,400 on monthly housing expenses, which would include mortgage payments, home insurance, property taxes and other housing-related expenses, such as condo fees. An additional $400 would be available for other debt such as credit card expenses and car loans.

A slang term for the internet.
Hey, I'm surfing in cyberspace.
Celestasia tarafından 8 Mayıs 2005, Pazar
"A consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate operators, in every nation, by children being taught mathematical concepts. … A graphic representation of data abstracted from banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the nonspace(sic) of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, receding."
The word cyberspace was coined by William Gibson in the novelette Burning Chrome, but was more notably popularized by the above quote from page 69 of his latter publication, Neuromancer in 1984.

Arizona Coyotes
By the Numbers: Coyotes fall to Flames as late rally falls short
After winning back-to-back games on a three-game homestand, the Phoenix Coyotes looked to be on their way to snapping out of a skid that saw them lose six of seven.
But after Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Calgary Flames, the Coyotes have found themselves on the wrong side of the final for the second consecutive game.
The Coyotes again seemed to have the majority of scoring chances and good looks, but couldn't get anything to fall their way. Phoenix had a late flurry at the net, but couldn't get anything home in the final seconds of Wednesday's game.
Here's a closer look at the loss by the numbers:
The Coyotes scored a shorthanded goal for the second straight game after not netting one in their first 48 outings. Both came from Antoine Vermette.
Phoenix center Martin Hanzal was a scratch for the second straight game with a lower-body injury. Hanzal is listed as day-to-day.
For the fifth time in their last six games, the Coyotes scored two goals or less. Phoenix scored three in a 3-2 win over New Jersey and in a 5-3 loss to Philadelphia, but hasn't passed that mark since Dec. 31, 2013, in a 4-3 overtime win over Edmonton.
The Coyotes had scored a power play goal in seven straight games -- halfway to the franchise record of 14 -- but that streak was snapped Wednesday, when Phoenix went 0 for 2 with the man advantage.
Coyotes captain Shane Doan snapped a seven-game scoreless drought with third-period wrister to pull Phoenix within 3-2.
Phoenix fired 32 shots on Calgary goaltender Karri Ramo, but he came up with 30 saves, including holding strong during a last-second Coyotes rally at the net.
