A takeover by any name is a takeover
I think it would be productive for the citizens of Detroit to publicly have a conversation that is already taking place privately — the business class that left Detroit in the 1970s and '80s are back. No one is fooled by the talk of financial crisis and mismanagement; it is clear the way Public Act 436 was passed. It had the feel of an executive order. Even though other cities in the state have also been ta ...Read more ›

When President Bush signed the energy bill on August 8, he set in motion a chain of events that might lead to major changes in the way utilities price and meter retail electric services—and ultimately in the way they value and use non-traditional energy resources.

PYRAMIDS FALL. While I enjoyed reading the "Pyramid Schemes" article in your May 1, 1998 issue, as the lead prosecutor in the Federal Trade Commission's action against FutureNet I feel a clarification is in order. While the FTC's complaint focused on FutureNet's Internet access program, certain concerns attach to any program which focuses on recruitment since one of the hallmarks of a pyramid is the lack of any relationship between the compensation paid to a distributor for recruiting and the sale of any product.

AMID WORRIES THAT RESIDENTIAL CONSUMERS MAY NOT benefit from competition comes a study that shows at least one industry will: metering. This market is expected to grow an average of 5 percent per year through 2002.
By 2002, the metering industry is expected to be worth $3.1 billion, up from $2.4 billion last year, says Metering for Utilities: Riding the Wave of Deregulation, a new book from Business Communications Co.
Overall, meter reading systems are expected to log the highest average annual growth rate, about 16 percent each year over the next five years.

Meeting to be held over proposed closures of eleven Rhondda Cynon Taf schools
Parents have taken to social media to express their anger over plans for Rhondda Cynon Taf council to close 11 of its schools.
The proposals are to be discussed at a council cabinet meeting later today.
Councillors are expected to discuss the possibility of replacing the closed schools with 'middle schools' which will teach children from ages 3 to 16.
The local authority says the plans will aim to raise standards and offer pupils 21st century school facilities.
But some parents are concerned about having children of different ages taught at the same school.
The plans come after the local authority announced it's to make a third round of cuts to its services.
Nursery education, street cleaning and town events could all face being axed as the councils looks to make up a £30 million funding gap.

Welsh Government expected to downgrade Pisa target
The Welsh Government is today expected to downgrade its target for Wales to be in the top 20 of international education league tables by next year.
The so-called Pisa tests compare the performance of 15-year-old pupils around the world in key subjects.
When they were last taken in December 2012, Wales ranked 43rd out of 68 countries for maths, 41st for reading and 36th for science.
Those rankings are all lower than the previous occasion in 2009, and behind both the rest of the UK and the Pisa average.
Former Education Minister Leighton Andrews pledged to reach the top 20 positions when the tests are next taken in December 2015.
His successor Huw Lewis has also stuck by the target, despite slips in performance.
Mr Lewis is today due to set out the Welsh Government's plan to improve the education system over the next five years.
The 'Qualified for Life' plan will focus on building a strong workforce, an engaging curriculum, respected qualifications and effective collaboration.
Reading can 'unlock the door to lifelong creativity'
Reading can help lead to creativity, employment and an enjoyment of learning according to the National Union of Headteachers. It comes as a scheme to improve reading standards of 11-year-olds in Wales launches.
Reading well unlocks the door to lifelong creativity, employment and enjoyment of learning. Ten minutes a day is not much to spare a very young child but schools realise that there is much to do in building confidence and commitment in their wider communities. This campaign offers an opportunity to mobilise support for children who most need it and a win for them would be a win for Wales.
'We must act now' to get more children reading
A campaign to improve the reading standards of children in Wales has been welcomed by Save the Children. The head of the charity in Wales said every child should be "given a fair and equal chance to learn to read well".
We must act now to change the story for our children in Wales. Read On. Get On. is about everyone coming together to write the next chapter and making sure that every child is to be given a fair and equal chance to learn to read well, regardless of their background.
Campaign to 'support parents to read with children'
The aims of a new campaign to improve the reading standards of 11-year-old in Wales have been set out. The group, Read On. Get On say they aim to "create a nation of strong readers" by:
- Supporting parents to read with young children for ten minutes a day.
- Urging the public to volunteer to help disadvantaged children improve their reading.
- Building a powerful coalition of the most influential public, private and charitable organisations to pledge to support the mission.
- Urging all political parties to support the 2025 target.
Mission to improve children's reading in Wales launched
A campaign to improve the standard of reading among 11-year-olds in Wales launches today.
The group Read On. Get On, is taking the lead in efforts.
Every year in Wales around 40% of 11-year-olds have a reading age below their chronological age according to a 2010/11 report from Estyn.
Another study by UK Read On.Get On. coalition found that GDP in 2025 could be £32 billion higher if action had been taken to ensure that all children were reading well by the age of 11.
Welsh Government budget: Where is the money going?
The Welsh Government has changed direction on funding the health service. After a series of below inflation increases, the NHS will get an extra £425 million over two years.
It's an above inflation increase, worth an extra 3.2 percent next year. The Welsh Government says it will enable the NHS to transform its services.
But there are further cuts for local councils. Though there's extra money for schools, following a deal between Labour and the Liberal Democrats to get the budget passed.
Our political reporter, Owain Phillips, has been looking at what the budget could mean for the services we all rely on.
"Too little, too late" for NHS say Tories
The Welsh Conservatives claim that the extra money for the NHS in the Welsh budget fails to make up for the cutbacks already imposed on the health service. They also criticised the Liberal Democrats for agreeing to support the Welsh Government's spending proposals.
With shallow promises the Lib Dems are propping up a discredited Labour government, which has run down our NHS and whose incompetent bungling has seen Wales dragging along the bottom of UK league tables in school and economic performance.
The Lib Dems have caved in for less than three quarters of 1% of the Welsh Government's £15billion annual budget, with shameless commitments, many of which were already in progress, in an attempt to aid their dire electoral prospects.
The Lib Dems have agreed to be Labour's voting fodder until the next Assembly elections, when voters will cast their judgement on a decade and a half of Labour failure, dithering and underachievement.
Whilst any additional cash for the NHS is to be welcomed this investment is a far cry from the record-breaking amounts that Welsh Labour has cut from the health budget in recent years. It is also too little too late for those who have seen their local hospitals and services closed or downgraded in recent years.
Under Labour, waiting times in Wales have skyrocketed, cancer patients are denied life transforming drugs, our ambulance service is in chaos and our emergency departments haven't met their targets for more than 5 years.
Budget "short-sighted" say Plaid Cymru
Plaid Cymru has claimed that the Welsh Government's budget proposals for 2015-2016 will create long term problems for the NHS. Plaid have been involved in previous budget deals but refused to negotiate with Labour this year in protest at the plans for an M4 relief road around Newport. The new budget is backed by the Liberal Democrats who also oppose the road scheme. It includes money for design work on the new motorway but if goes ahead, construction work won't start until after the 2016 Assembly election.
Today's short-sighted budget from the Welsh Government delivers a vicious blow for the services that we rely on. The UK Government's determination to shrink public services is being continued by the Labour Government in Wales. The Labour party is doing the Tories' dirty work for them.
Protecting the health budget without protecting the social services that support them is short-sighted, and scaling back social care will only put more pressure on health services in the long run.
Plaid Cymru took the conscious decision to withdraw from budget negotiations because the Welsh Government committed this government, and many governments to come, to the flawed and expensive £1 billion M4 scheme when there were better options available.
The Labour government's failure to manage budgets has meant that it has been living hand-to-mouth for many years, and this budget is a continuation of that theme.
Extra NHS money will close funding gap claims minister
Finance Minister Jane Hutt has told AMs that there will be an extra £425 million of extra funding for the NHS over this year and next. She said the additional investment responds "completely and fully" to the funding gap identified by the Nuffield Trust in a report commissioned by the Welsh Government. The Minister said the money would support the NHS "in making the changes it needs to make". She added that although local government would face cuts, councils would not face the same draconian decisions as in England. They would also receive an extra £10 million for social services.

I liked the interaction between the lock, latch, and red door in this image. I had a slightly more difficult time drawing the lock and the eyelet it passes through to appear correctly in the composition but it worked out just fine. The work is painted with Rublev 18th century reproduction watercolor paint on Arches 140# cold-pressed paper. The interaction of the course grained pigments with the rough Arches paper helps to bring the piece to life with texture. The original work is 7″×5″ in size.

Today's L.A. Events Preview: The Black Lips
The Black Lips/The Lamps/The Bloody Hollies @ The Echo 1/26
You've seen the picture. You've read the abbreviated preview blurb. You've entered the ticket giveaway. Now it's time for: THE FULL, UNABRIDGED BLACK LIPS CONCERT PREVIEW.
So, I was MySpace-stalking Black Lips the other day when I perused the comments left to them and saw a note that said, ''"You guys are the absolute tits!''" And you know what? That'''s a pretty spot-on observation (thanks, Matt in New Zealand). Atlanta'''s Black Lips is the garage rock revival band that every garage rock revival band aspires to be '' on each record they'''ve nailed the sloppy lo-fi sound quality that would make them worthy of getting slapped on a 1966 vinyl sampler, were they not so misleadingly new. They use loads of treble, and are, without a doubt, one of the best live bands you'''ll ever get to see at a small venue. They'''ve got a reputation for all sorts of filth: spitting urine at audiences, making out with each other; lead vocalist/guitarist Cole Alexander is said to have played guitar with his third hand (and word has it he'''s well-endowed, a pretty entertaining rumor for a guy who'''s somewhere around 5'''7''"). Get there early for all the great openers, including the Lamps, who toured with the Lips last year.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

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.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Arlington Central Library (1015 N. Quincy Street) is now lending gardening tools to Arlington residents, and all they need is a library card.
This morning, the library held a "vine cutting" to open the toolshed on its east plaza, next to its community garden. The shed, built from cedar for free by Case Design, will be open for lending from March through November on Wednesdays, 5:00-7:00 p.m., Fridays 3:00-5:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to noon. Borrowers must be residents of Arlington County and at least 18 years old.
"We want people to dig in and get their hands dirty," Arlington Central Library Manager Margaret Brown said.
Brown was joined by Arlington County Board Chair Jay Fisette and Board member Libby Garvey at the toolshed's unveiling. Brown said the library was inspired to develop the toolshed and its neighboring vegetable garden — with produce going to the Arlington Food Assistance Center — through Fisette's sustainability initiative when he was Board chair in 2010. The plan and location for the shed was developed by the Urban Agriculture Task Force last year.
"I really think the library has done a great job of taking some of the big picture ideas the county has," Fisette said, "and to find ways creatively… to further goals of the county and the [Urban Agriculture] Task Force."
Fisette donated a shovel he was given from the groundbreaking of Virginia Hospital Center's new wing in 2001. The other tools, available for borrowing immediately, are:
- Bow rakes
- Bow saw
- Bulb planters
- Dandelion puller
- Four-tined soil turner
- Flat blade shovel
- Garden hose
- Hand rakes
- Hedge clippers
- Hoes
- Hook and ladder
- Loppers
- Long-handled shovel
- Pick axes
- Pitchforks
- Post hole digger
- Seed spreader
- Trowel
- Walk smoother

Are you ready for some football? The Arlington Public Library is and it's inviting residents to join its first fantasy football league.
Residents can sign up to compete against neighbors in the library's "Dewey Decimators League." Participants must attend a Fantasy Football 101 class at Central Library on Monday, August 18. From 6:00-7:00 p.m. class attendees will learn how to use the free Yahoo! Fantasy Football program to create a team.

A place to convene with neighbors, donate those dusty spy novels and show children the merits of community service comes in a package the size of an old cranberry crate.
These Little Free Libraries, neighborhood-sponsored curbside libraries with a free, "take a book, return a book," policy, have sprouted up in Arlington since Robert Walter installed one in his neighborhood off Glebe Road and Walter Reed Drive in 2012.
"It's better than donating to Goodwill, who will sell [the books], and it's a way to give back to the neighborhood," said Walter, who heard about The Little Free Library organization on Facebook.
Little Free Libraries encourage communities to contribute any books — from children's books to novels to cookbooks — as well as to enjoy the contributions made by other neighbors.
There are now seven Little Free Libraries in Arlington, located at 3900 7th Street S., 1060 N. Liberty Street, 4706 32nd Street N., 5117 N. 27th Street, 1700 S. Edgewood Street, 6328 22nd Street N. along a section of the Four Mile Run trail, and on the grounds of Washington-Lee High School.
Last week, each library was stocked with books, including comedian David Cross' memoir and an installment of the "Berenstain Bears" children's series.
Much like ordinary libraries, Little Free Libraries are meant to be a community hub. However, they don't charge late fees or require library cards, just an interest in reading and paying-it-forward.
"It's good for poor people and the [undocumented] population who might have been intimidated by the registration process at a library, or who want to avoid potential late fees," Walter said of his Little Free Library. "It's also more social."
After his proposal for a Little Free Library was approved by the homeowners' association of his eight-residence community, Walter requested a box from Little Free Library.
Walter said his homeowners' association paid approximately $350 for their recycled cranberry crate, its post and installation, but many communities make their own libraries rather than buying them from the organization.
"I've seen some really elaborate, cool designs that people have done," Walter said. The Little Free Library website includes pictures of library "stewards" like Walter, who built their libraries to look like covered bridges or old-fashioned school houses.
More than 2,000 Little Free Libraries exist across the world. Since the organization's beginning in Wisconsin in 2009, Little Free Library owners in Vietnam, Germany and Australia have registered their libraries on the official map.
For residents interested in installing their own, all that's needed is the approval of the neighborhood association, access to building materials or the means to purchase a library box, and registration with Little Free Library's map. A steward to sponsor and maintain the library is also essential.
"When I was a resident, I would just keep a box of books in the house and it was like a constant reserve," Walter said.
Although Walter has relocated to Fairfax, and will soon transfer stewardship of his library to someone in his old neighborhood, he knows his library still gets frequent business.
"I went back there to pick up some mail, and there were books there, different ones from the last time I saw it," Walter said.
Tomorrow (August 9) marks the 40th anniversary of President Richard Nixon's resignation from office in light of the Watergate scandal, and Central Library is marking the historic anniversary with a display of memorabilia and an author visit.
The library has a temporary display of Nixon-related items that visitors can check out through the end of the month. A private, local collector allowed the library to borrow the pieces of memorabilia covering the decades from Nixon's 1950s vice-presidential campaign through his death in 1994. The display includes a couple dozen items including newspapers, masks and even a section of carpet from the Democratic National Committee offices at the Watergate — the target of the 1972 break-in that sparked a larger investigation.
The collector is particularly proud of a t-shirt from the late 1970s prompting readers to "Don't Buy Books By Crooks." It was part of a national campaign, started in Arlington, to encourage people not to buy Nixon's memoirs. The headquarters for that campaign was located close to where the Ballston Metro station currently exists.
"We live in this incredibly fascinating capital area, and our national history often is also our local Arlington history in a lot of ways," said library spokesman Peter Golkin.
On Tuesday (August 12), author Elizabeth Drew will visit the library to talk about covering the events surrounding the Watergate scandal, and about the reissue of her book "Washington Journal: Reporting Watergate and Richard Nixon's Downfall." She will reflect on Nixon's ability to make a comeback and discuss what the scandal means in the 21st century. Copies of Drew's book will be available for sale and signing during the event, which runs from 7:00-9:00 p.m.
"It's a rare opportunity to hear one of the major journalists to cover Watergate speak," said Golkin. He notes that although many Americans were focused on newspaper coverage of the scandal, Drew's reporting was a major contribution because "her coverage in The New Yorker gave it a context you can only get from that kind of long-form journalism."
(Updated at 1:15 p.m.) Pre-schoolers and elementary school students can do a lot more than read at Arlington libraries this summer.
Early last month, Arlington Public Library rolled out seven STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) kits — one for each branch — to encourage children to get hands-on experience with science in conjunction with its science-themed "Fizz, Boom, Read" summer reading program.
"The kids can come in, they can play with the kits, they can read books that correspond with the themes," Anne Womack, the library's youth collections librarian, said. "We saw other libraries doing this, and STEM is really important, so we thought we should do it, too. The kits are something to make kids see that science can be fun and hands on."
The kits are for engineering (as pictured above), earth science, the human body, insects, plants, a "snap circuit" for basic electronics and weather. Each one is designed so children can play independently.
"The girl who built the bridge in that picture, she did it on her own," Womack said. "She read the instructions and just did it. It's just hands-on science activities for the kids, not something that has to be parent or teacher-led."
Each kit has components for young children and late-elementary schoolers. They were paid for and partly designed by Dan Cross-Cole, a retired engineer. Womack was sitting in her office early this spring when she was told "there is a guy in the lobby looking for you."
It was Cross-Cole, who told her he "wanted to design some science projects for kids," Womack said. Library staff had already been discussing building the kits because they had seen them at other library systems, so Womack instantly agreed. Cross-Cole arranged to have the project paid for by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
"[Cross-Cole] was a miracle," Womack said. "He just came to us out of the blue… [IEEE] paid for everything, and they've been really helpful in this process."
The kits will rotate throughout the library system for the rest of the summer. After the summer reading program is finished, Womack said they plan to circulate them among the different branches of the library.

A new event, "Late Night Recess," will give Arlington residents in their 20s and 30s a free opportunity to romp around Arlington Central Library (1015 N. Quincy Street) in "play clothes" after closing time later this month.
The event will take place on Thursday, July 31, starting at 9:00 p.m. Attendees are encouraged to "bring their friends and inner child" to the event, which will include Nerf tag, capture the flag, Twister and homemade cookies and milk from gourmet cookie bakery Noshy.
Following the event, participants can continue to O'Sullivan's Irish Pub in Clarendon, where Late Night Recess ticket-holders will get a free appetizer with a $10 purchase. The event is intended to help the library engage with the young professional set.
"The library in the 21st century goes well beyond a stack of books on the shelves," said library spokesman Peter Golkin. "If people are looking for something that's built around a social gathering as opposed to a book-centered gathering, then that's what we do."
As one of the events in the Arlington Public Library's "Lit Up" series, Late Night Recess is aimed at young adults who want to socialize and have fun in a unique setting. However, there is no age limit for the event. Attendees should use "common sense," and respect the library in this unique after-hours setting, Golkin said.
Current, ongoing events in the Lit Up series include the Commuter Book Club, a book club for short books that make "Metro stops or miles fly by," and Shut Up and Write, a discussion series with a panel of authors.
Registration for Late Night Recess is currently open, and the first 50 registrants will receive a "special prize."

It is awkward to get to. I was very disappointed with the price to the comfort ratio of this hotel. I only paid the higher price to have a pool. I would have paid the $10.00 more and stayed at the Hilton, which is easier to get to then this hotel. Never got to use the overcrowded pool anyhow! What a waste!

The research staff at 7E—a medical-aesthetic company that prides itself on skincare innovations—designs noninvasive treatments that combat the effects of aging and bolster all-over wellness. Once staff members have perfected a solution, they share the fruits of their labors with clients at 7E Fit Spa. One of these many fruits is the Torc Plus, an FDA-approved body-contouring machine that works to deplete inches and bulk up muscles in bodies through electrical stimulation. The spa's noninvasive face-lifts tighten visages while evening out skin tone, reducing puffiness, and increasing circulation, and saunas detoxify the body and relax clients with infrared heat shoplifted from the equator.
Keeping client satisfaction at the forefront of its mission, the Avalon Med Spa and Laser Center recently underwent a complete overhaul that included acquiring the award-winning G.M. Collin product line, as well as a new therapist, physician, and staff. A medical director and board certified-internist leads a team of professionals, including one member with certification in aesthetic medicine, and special training in medical informatics. The wide-reaching expertise of its staff enables Avalon Med Spa to deliver a varied menu of aesthetic services that includes everything from laser hair removal to teeth whitening, Botox, and body wraps.
Devoted to bettering the patient experience, the center also nestles clients into a relaxing environment replete with plush couches and a waiting lounge done up in warm, neutral tones. Hardwood floors lead clients back to a private treatment room, where the elegant décor relaxes with furnishings such as draped, olive-green curtains, frosted sconces, and a wall waterfall that trickles out droplets harvested from the fountain of youth.:m]]
Spa Sundara's licensed aestheticians and massage therapists beautify clients with 90-minute wraps performed amid flickering candles, golden-hued walls, and draped fabric. Sessions commence with a 15-minute stint in a warm, infrared sauna to start the detoxifying process, relax tight muscles, and loosen socks sealed-on with wax. Practitioners then apply a sloughing scrub made from highly caffeinated Balinese coffee to smooth uneven skin texture, refine contours, and infuse the body with antioxidants. An aromatic coffee mask teamed up with a warm blanket wrap follows to evict impurities from cramped pore apartments. Spa Sundara's staff recommends clients receive one body wrap a week for six weeks to obtain maximum detoxification and the energy of a child playing in a pool of Mountain Dew.
During a plastic surgery consultation with Dr. Eleanor Barone, she goes out of her way to outline all the procedure options available to clients so that they can make informed decisions based on expected results, downtime, and price points. She rejuvenates faces with surgical lifts, while the registered nurse on staff fights crow's feet and facial folds with beauty injections and dermal fillers. Liposuction removes unwanted fat deposits during an outpatient surgery, and noninvasive Viora Reaction treatments iron out cellulite via scalpel-free radio frequencies.
Lipo Envy's technicians rejuvenate bodies with noninvasive services that refresh dull skin and tackle fat and toxins. Without harming surrounding skin, laser-lipo treatments shrink fat cells on problem areas such as the love handles, back, and thighs, reducing circumference and cellulite. A vibration platform further promotes weight-loss efforts by stimulating muscles to contract 30 times per second.
Also in the technicians' toolbelts are infrared body wraps, which cocoon bodies in infrared heat with the goal of burning calories, flushing out toxins, and improving skin tone. Paraben-free spray tans are also available to moisturize skin and gild limbs.
It's hard not to relax while lounging beside glowing paper lanterns and flickering candles––and the therapy has barely begun. Licensed massage therapist Danerys Gonzalez slowly builds from flowing Swedish strokes to deep-tissue pressure, which can improve range of motion in muscles. Guests may also pair bodywork with Danerys' signature brown-sugar body scrub, or request a slimming body wrap with essences of key lime or vanilla bean.

Very nice staffs, room cleaness is frequent and very good!
The room is not that big, price is a little bit expensive.
The staff was excellent. True gem of a hotel!
The staff, the room, the shower, the bed, the comforter - everything was great. The room a bit small and expencive but normal for New York. Would defenetly stay there again if it had another location. The staff are totally amazing and incredibly helpful. Absoloutly nothing negative to say about anything at the GEM Hotel except for the location.
The location. Too far from the good stuff.
The position was good. A nice part of New York. Walking distance to nice cafes and bars. Subway close by. Staff were friendly and helpful. Felt safe.
The room was VERY small. The elevator was broken for the 8 days we were there. We were on level 1 so not really a problem for us but an inconvenience for guests on higher floors.
This is a great little hotel - excellent location and super friendly staff who helped me from the moment I called to advise I was checking in late to the moment I checked out. As a single woman you want security and I got that !!
Location, free wifi. Anthony on desk at arrival was very helpful and welcoming.
No central facilities ie no bar or comfortable lounging area if waiting for someone. Room and bathroom very small. Little hanging space. Corridors narrow and dark
Having a window that looked out onto street
Very nice and comfortable bed Good cleaning Nice restaurants in the area Good location close to everything in Manhattan Male receptionist Anthony was great, kind and gave good advise on restaurants and so.
Extremly noisy from the street, had to sleep with earplugs to get a good nights sleep. The bill got quite higher than expected the day of checking out. Due to several taxes, we payed more than 200 dollars more than expected, and the girl receptionist didnt really bother to explain how so. A really bad way to end the trip. We've never experienced this when we have booked with other companys, where we also payed in advance and not on the last day.
I loved the location. being that close to the subway (and a subway line we could figure out fairly easily) and walking distance to so many restaurants and bars was wonderful. also nice to have a whole market right there. The rooms were good. The size was better that what I expected based on past reviews.
I think the staff was hit or miss. Had a couple people who were very helpful, but some that were quite rude (especially the lady working upon our arrival). The noise was sometimes an issue but nothing that I didn't expect being in NYC.
I loved the staff, specially Anthony at the reception desk. He was super helpful and friendly and made me feel super welcome.
The room and location were perfect for a slo traveller.
best location
small rooms
We loved the location. It was easy to navigate by cab or subway anywhere in the city. Good restaurants nearby. They were quick to correct anything in the room that didn't work. The bed was comfortable, and there was excellent wifi. We enjoyed our stay.
It's on Houston, so it was noisy. After the first night, it didn't bother me at all. One day they missed our room, so it wasn't cleaned up. The ice machine is broken, so you have to ask for ice and they retrieve it for you. That's only a bad thing if it's after 8:30 pm when the maid service goes home.
Great location- you can walk to the East Village, Nolita, LES, Soho. Friendly staff who were very accommodating (we were moved from the basement to the 6th floor after our first night's stay). Overall room was clean and on the 6th floor had good light.
Bedding and sheets could be a little cleaner and crisper. Towels could be bigger. The basement in summer (we only stayed in the basement room 1 night) isn't the most comfortable with the heat.
Hotel with excellent and helpful personnel, clean rooms, very nice bathrooms and conditioners in bedroom! Amazing location with 2 nearest subway stations, and famous places in a couple of blocks (Little Italy, Chinatown, Chelsie and other) many cute cafes and bars and good grocery store (whole food market ) with special floor for eating in 50 meters from hotel)) This hotel is pretty cool for positive travelers without huge luxury demands! I satisfied by my choice! Just positive emotions! Go! Go! Go! ;)
No refrigerators((( No irons((( Nothing critical, but it's could be soooo cool!!!
Loved the location. Very convenient for my business travel into midtown on the F train and close proximity to downtown.
Room was hot and stuffy as well as hallways and elevators. I couldn't sleep well because the air conditioning unit would not run for more than a few minutes at a time set on the lowest temp (68). It definitely didn't feel like it ever got down below 75 degrees and there wasn't any way to run just the fan either to keep air circulating.
staff excellent
lift not working in lobby
Staff very helpfull and friendly. Wholefoods near hotel. Room bigger than averange NYC hotel rooms.
A little bit noise street, but it. Didnt disturb our sleep.
Wireless internet worked great. Nice sized room for a NYC hotel. Room air conditioner worked great. Easy transit via subway to midtown, times square, and central park. Easy transit via bus to get to world trade center and battery park.
Air conditioner in the hotel lobby was not working. Elevator was somewhat slow, but not unreasonable. Bathroom in my room (#303) smelled like a sour rag was used to clean it.
Friendly, knowledgeable staff, near subway, restaurants and shopping. Staff very accommodating. We stay there every time we visit our daughter.
Ice machine was broken on last visit but staff somehow delivered ice to our room 5-10 min. later.
Very kind staff
A lot of noise on the bedroom
The location The staff Comfortable beds Great value Quiet on the top floor (for NYC) Excellent storage for room size
No kettle in room Air conditioning unit very noisy Bathroom fan light very noisy Not really in Soho - in Lower East Side - slightly confusing to find initially
It was a great location to East Village, Soho, Chinatown etc. etc. there is also a Wholefoods store next to the hotel. Room was tiny but had everything we needed abd was clean and comfortable. In NY you are only there to shower & sleep so it was great.
The air conditioning was loud in the room but vital in the summer months.
Location attractive from the booking listing
The room was on the basement floor. No window completely chlostrophibic, dark room. I left the following day.
The staff members were all very helpful and friendly. The room was very comfortable and a good size for New York. I would stay here again.
The only negative was that the window in the bedroom did not open.

Bush Announce Details for Vinyl Reissue of 'Sixteen Stone'
As an exclusive to those who pledge to help Bush release their latest album, fans can get their hands on a double-LP reissue of the seminal 'Sixteen Stone.'
As an exclusive to those who pledge to help Bush release their latest album, fans can get their hands on a double-LP reissue of the seminal 'Sixteen Stone.'
The track is the latest offering the band has unveiled off their new album Man on the Run, which arrives on Oct. 21.
In the wake of their newest album release, British alt rockers Bush have unleashed an official music video for their song 'The Only Way Out' -- and it's actually quite '90s of them.
Bush have just unleashed their new video for their anthemic and serious single 'The Only Way Out.' The track is featured on the band's upcoming album 'Man on the Run,' which is due on Oct. 21 via Zuma Rock Records.
Bush have revealed 'The Only Way Out,' the lead single from the band's upcoming 'Man on the Run' album.
Bush have announced they will release their sixth album, 'Man on the Run,' via Zuma Rock Records on Oct. 21.
Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale will serve as a guest mentor on his wife Gwen Stefani's team on NBC's 'The Voice.'
After the success of reviving the Bush name with 2011's 'The Sea of Memories' album, frontman Gavin Rossdale and his band are now back at work on the follow-up.
Nickelback with special guests Bush, Seether and My Darkest Days will rock the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, WA on Saturday, June 23rd and we've got your chance to win tickets.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. So what's a new mp3 from Bush worth?
Fortunately, you don't have to answer that question, because the band is giving away their new single, 'All My Life,' for free. The track, due for inclusion on the band's upcoming album 'The Sea of Memories,' is being offered at the Electronic Arts website for free download.
Why EA, you ask? The partnership came about because another track from the album – which will be made available for free download on July 25 – is being featured on EA Sports' 'NHL 12.' An unusual tie-in, perhaps, but when your band has been away for the better part of a decade, you've got to try and make a splash.
While President Barack Obama was organizing a targeted operation to kill terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, it appears that former President George Bush was taking care of his own business in Texas - well, sort of.

Opening Night Observations: No Surprises To Be Found
The college basketball season finally got underway on Monday night with three games featuring squads that will be in New York next week for the 2K Sports Classic Benefitting Coaches vs. Cancer. All three favorites, Arizona, Mississippi State and St. John's, won but predictably there were signs of rust. That comes with the territory, but what are some of the things that can be learned from these games? Here are a few basic observations for each of the six teams in action.
National Title Game Recap: UConn Wins Third National Title
Final Four Recap: Butler and Connecticut Advance to Title Game
In the first game of the night in Houston, Butler was able to withstand an early barrage of VCU three pointers to take a six-point lead into the intermission. After an even start the Bulldogs allowed themselves to be drawn into the Rams' hectic style of play, breaking the pressure for three pointers instead of attacking the rim.

So, I've been looking at these 2 games.
I'm actually going to play something free to play, with no huge p2w cash shop.
And I think these 2 fits.
Would you mind giving me your opinions on these games?
This will help me be able to choose one.
I can always play both too if they're both that good.
You can say something bad about these games too if you want too.
But I'll probably still play these while I wait for a couple games to come out.
