Rated 3.5 out of 5 by 1762 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by prs1 Check Out Lines at check out were long, with limited staff at prime AM check out. Two guests had detailed questions for your staff (one appeared by checking daily schedule for conference facilities ie did not appear to be checking out; the other seemed to be rebooking multiple stays - ie lots of paper being reviewed with your staff). Net is, although I appreciate other guests having their needs addressed, there was no effort to get more check out staff to the front. The rest of us just waited - for what is a minute to check out. I know there is express check out - but I had a quick question regarding the charge card on file. Three other guests were visibly upset waiting to be processed. January 18, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by BIZWHP Great Location; Dated Room Right in central Toronto, a great location. But, it seems more like a tourism hotel than a business one, which was my purpose. There was a party of some sort on my floor causing great noise and an adjoining room has two fighting children both in in the evening and the following morning. Its almost as if they were actually in my rooms since there seemed to be no soundproofing in the door between my room and theirs. I actually tried to dampen the sound by stuffing a towel into the g at the floor. Not one I would recommend. As an SPG Gold member, on business, you'd think the hotel would allocate rooms better.

Rated 4 out of 5 by MattC March Break Treat We decided to take the kids in to the city for a treat and an overnight stay during March break. The appeal being the indoor / outdoor pool which they loved and no complaints from us in this beautiful weather we are having. Great location for our needs in the city. The one downside this trip, the fire alarm sounding at 2am for close to 30 minutes. I understand this was totally beyond the hotel's control and safety has to be a priority but there was no mention of it at check out the next morning or even an apology for what must have been a truly disturbed sleep for every guest that night, it certainly was for us. Hoping that our next trip is considerbaly quieter and alarm free ! March 15, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Rweb Good experience The room was comfortable and clean but needed a little maintenance like with the peeling bathroom wallpaper. The A/C noise prevented me from sleeping without earplugs which is common for me, but we couldn't stand the heat without it going constantly. The elevators were stifling and hallways were warmer than I'd like when wearing my suit or tux. Restaurant prices were quite steep, and service was slow (lunch took 3 hours); therefore, I I only went twice. Housekeeping requests other than the maid took multiple calls and still weren't right. The maid was fabulous! July 11, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by NDIns What happened to meeting the customer's needs? A trend of long check-in line-ups, sold out Club Floor access, and a lack of identifying that weekly customers should be given some attention is now an expectation of mine. During my first few stay's at this property I felt well respected and rewarded for choosing this property over other SPG properties in downtown Toronto. This is no longer the case and other than the rate and very clean rooms (when the beds are made), there is no other reason for me to stay at this hotel. I truly hope that Tony and his management team take the time remember those regular customers when there are large conferences, etc. March 27, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by AllenDOS Room Problems Problems includes... During my 5 days the hotel safe, the key card (you had to click it a min of three times to get in the room), the shower leaking/drain didn't work. Yes it was all reported during my stay... August 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Soza Frequent Guest I stay at the Sheraton all of the time because I have an spg. rewards card and I find that I can redeem my points quite frequently. The hotel is always clean and very comfortable. It is also walking distance to the ballet, the CN station , Queen West, and the Eaton Centre. There was an incident last winter when too many young guests at a conference were having a loud party in the halls. The management did handle it but it was very upsetting and disruptive. I make sure that I do not stay on a "party floor" when I stay .there. July 28, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Verydisappointing Extremely Disapointed My family has been staying at the Sheraton Centre Toronto for over 30 years. We were so looking forward to spending my 40th birthday with the Sheraton Centre unfortunately it as a huge disappointment. First off, our room had stained carpets and water damage on the tv stand and dirty walls. I went and paid $60 extra to upgrade to the club level. We were not told that the upgrade would include the identical room only with a wet carpet under the air conditioning which got my wife's purse wet and the addition of an unstocked fridge that was not included in the previous room and continental breakfast that was very disappointing as well. I called guest services and waited on hold for 15 min while i was transferred to the manager. I was told that out $60 would be compt which it never was and then house keeping knocked on our door at 8:45 am wanting to clean our room. Will will not be returning to this hotel and will never recommending it to anyone. So disappointed August 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by MatchuATL Oustanding Customer Service I'm a frequent visitor at the hotel and the team at the club lounge always goes out of their way to make me feel right at home!Also, as a diabetic it is often challenging for me to find suitable eating options when I travel, but the club lounge gang always takes super special care of me and orders special low-sugar / diabetic-friendly breakfast options just for me! Thanks a lot, guys! It makes a huge impact on my stay and how I feel overall. :-) October 23, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by FamilyofFour Very Impressive My husband and I travelled to Toronto for a one night stay in the Downtown core and the Sheraton was definitely the place to stay! The rooms were clean and very comfortable, we had a great view of Nathan Phillips Square, everyone was very friendly and accommodating and having the ability to walk underground to the Eaton Centre was an added bonus. Our valet parking guy (Serge?) was very friendly and quickly made friends with our 11 year old son. Everyone seemed to go over and above our expectations. We were very pleased with our stay and will definitely consider this hotel on our next Toronto excursion! January 3, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by SThi Club Lounge disappointing The room was okay. Bed was not really comfortable. The club lounge was a big disappointment. I see on the website there should be cold meats platter but there was none of that. Just cold hard boiled eggs and bread and fruit. I didn't use it for breakfast except the first day. However, the service was good once they picked up the phone. I had to let it ring for a long time. The first time I called, I gave up and hung up. But once I made a request, the service was prompt. The swimming pool was the best part of the hotel. July 27, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tradeshow2014 Special Attention I checked in for business purposes, and found Tammy at the front desk to be particularly helpful in making my stay comfortable by accommodating some simple requests, and even calling me to make sure I was comfortable. I appreciated her personal touch. August 25, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by releig55 Good Location but has to be renewed The Sheraton Centre Toronto needs maintenance and renovation. The room, I booked, was nice, but the conditoin of the room is average whereas the price is very high. The bathroom facilities are much too small, the air condition is very loud, the carpenter is old. Very good was the free coffeemaschine and free bottles of water. The housekeeping is maximum 2 - 3 stars, some days everthing was done in a proper way, the other day towels were missing, or water - just not as you expect it in a house like this. Even so, the staff is mostly very friendly. The breakfast in the lounge is ok, always fresh fruits were available. The appetizers in the evenig have a poor qualitiy. All in all the level of the hotel is more or less 3 stars not more. July 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Scotty Home Visit Another great vacation in Toronto and in the Sheraton. All of the staff know us very well as we come across "the pond" Spring and Fall to stay in what we regard as a second home. The Club Lounge staff Blesilda, Semret, Elsys and Joanna and of course John and all the guys. The front desk staff Brian (who always takes care of us) also Steve, Max, Marilyn and Anastacia for their help and friendship. Not forgetting Christina our room attendant for taking care of our needs and her caring personality. Also we would like to mention Moconnan and Tish in the Bistro for their help and friendship as well. Not forgetting Ling and Semret in the Coffee Shop. So many friends see you all in the Spring. October 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Marrick This hotel has a great staff! From the minute we arrived, we were treated like royalty. The staff directed us to where we needed to be, the check in desk quickly had our room keys and the servicing of the room was outstanding. The icing on the cake was Blesilda, the Club Room manager, who made us feel welcome and was there each day to greet us and ask what she could do to make our stay even better! We were there as part of a very large convention, but the staff treated us like we were their first priority. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a first rate experience. July 4, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Auraluna Good but not great The hotel itself was a very nice place, the room was clean and very faithful to the description but a few things definitely need some improvement . The hot tub was filthy, it look clean but a minute into we realized the filter wasn't workin and the water was filthy and full of bacteria. Middle of the summer on a long weekend ...not great. Also there was no mention of the parking fees $50 dollars for parking is almost criminal. I will resume at : A bit pricy for the No Frills Stay we recieved August 1, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by JackieP Hotel caters well to its customers The hotel caters well to its customers. It is well located and the staff is very responsive. The hotel is showing wear so the upcoming renovation about which I read is needed. August 26, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Marlam58 SPG recognition problem Our understanding about platinum status is that we are to receive the best upgrade available at the hotel when we are staying there. My wife asked about getting a fridge in the room on the Club Level and was told there would be a significant charge per day for one. Then we found out that another member of our group, staying at the hotel at the time,who checked in later the same day, who is NOT platinum, stayed in a two room suite with TWO fridges for no extra charge at all. She told my wife that she received this upgrade because she "batted her eyes at the attendant" . We are faithful SPG hotel guests which explains our platinum status. If no suites and fridges are available we understand but if they are the platinum guests should come first ! I have just begun extensive travel for business in South America and will be in charge of group bookings. After this upsetting experience I may have to reconsider my plans. August 17, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by rmc2012 Difficult Customer Service The room on the outside looks nice, however, a few problems occured during my stay. That's okay, if they can be resolved, but unfortunately, they weren't - and it was only examined when further escalation was made: -Light bulbs blown out in the room -fan on HVAC system wasn't working -mattress in the room is sagging on one side (overuse?) -coffee and creamers not replaced regularly in the room For the first two items, I called the front desk. I was told that they would send someone to fix these problems. Two days later, the problem still wasn't fixed. I called again, but this time asked to speak with a manager. The person on the other end of the phone asked what he could help with. When I asked if he was a manager, he said that he wasn't. I told him that I was escalating a repair incident that still had not been fixed. Before he would transfer me, he required that I explain the full problem to him. Very annoying and frustrating. August 18, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by mil854 Good, not great Good location in the center of Toronto. Paying quite a bit for a room and experience that needs improvement. Check in was extremely slow - waited in line for nearly an hour with only 4-5 guests in front of me. It should not take that long to check guests in. Upgraded to club level. The room was comfortable but walls were extremely thin and so could hear everything the neighbors were saying and doing. The wallpaper was old and peeling in a few places and the bathroom needed updating. The food on the club level was mediocre at best. However the lobby was quite nice and the bed comfortable. April 30, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by SYTA2014 SYTA Conference Bathroom needed cleaned when I arrived. Room was hot and would not cool off. Hallways were very loud August 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by TorontoFamily Family friendly hotel in perfect location During the Ice Storm in Toronto, my family was forced to relocate to a hotel as we lost power at home. We couldn't have selected a better hotel. It was reasonably priced, the staff were friendly and helpful, the room was clean and the pool was great. The hotel is superbly located. There is access to the underground PATH so we could explore Toronto without having to dress the kids in Winter gear. It is just a few minutes from all major tourist destinations like the CN tower, aquarium, theatres, etc. Our room overlooked the ice rink at Nathan Phillips square which was lit up beautifully at night. December 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Joanne6499 Employees are the Best!! Whenever I am in Toronto, I always chose the Sheraton because of the amazing Team of people they have. Being in the Customer Service field, they truly exemplify what this means> August 25, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bernieking74 Excellent Hotel Good service easy check in and check out Well located Large room excellent view good staff August 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Paul1066 Another wonderful stay When you are made to feel like a million bucks from check-in, you know you are going to have a great stay. My family of five enjoyed another Canada Day in Toronto and made a wise choice in returning to the Sheraton Centre Toronto. Tammy checked us in with a smile and made us feel welcome from the start. The hotel staff were excellent, the rooms were very clean we enjoyed every moment of our stay. My daughter loved the soft pillows and said she wanted to take her bed home with her. The buffet breakfast at the Sheraton is superb. All and all, we had a great stay and would return in a heartbeat. July 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nicmar Integrity I left behind a pair of prescription sunglasses in my room and realized this after leaving the hotel while on my flight back to Ottawa. Once I got home, I called the hotel last night and explained my story to someone in lost and found who was able to confirm that my sunglasses were recovered and were in their possesion. I arranged for one of my partners who was staying until today to retrieve them and bring them back for me. I am truly appreciative of your cleaning staff for turning the sunglasses in and for the professional manner in which the lady at lost and found dealt with me. Thank you. September 27, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5 by TravellingWomenCouple Pleasantly Surprised! We had the pleasure of staying in this hotel (room 1545) during World Pride 2014. There were very few hotel rooms to be found during this event so we booked this one online without much research and figured we would just deal with whatever we got. When we arrived we were thrilled to find out that the hotel and the room was wonderful! Clean, easy to check in, easier to check out. We had both room service and ate at the Shopsy's restaurant. The food was excellent both times and reasonably priced (considering it was hotel food). Would definitely stay again. June 30, 2014

So I made a WW barb and when I am doing magic finding with my friend in Act 3 I keep disconnecting. It's just randomly says you have been disconnected with no lag or anything but my friend is still in the game and says minions are hitting me. I play hardcore so I am sure you can imagine why this is a problem. I am afraid one of these times I will lag during an elite pack. At first I thought it was just a crash but now it keeps happening and happening. Also, when I am playing by myself and it disconnects me I lose my stacks. Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

First it was the reconfiguration that dominated the school board meetings at Willis Avenue School. For the last few months, the lease of a closed building has been at the forefront of the consciousness of district parents, residents and the board of education.
It was the talk of board meetings; you heard it in the halls and parking lots and was endlessly discussed on District Superintendent Dr. Michael Nagler's blog. Would the budget pass? Would Mineola welcome two new board members? Could the reconfiguration be done away with?
It was good eats, dancing and auctions galore last week at Jericho Terrace in Mineola. In conjunction with TeamFox, the Michael J. Fox Parkinson's Disease Research Foundation and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Long Island, "Night on the Town in Mineola," showcased sample cuisines from New York City and Long Island restaurants.
Six Mineola youngsters received Scouting's highest honor on May 6. Vincent Buonincontro, Nick D'Annuzio, Nicholas Fiori, Glenn Peters, Perry Llanes and Zachary Rachell attained the rank of Eagle Scout at the Troop 45 Eagle Scout Ceremony at the First Presbyterian Church.
The annual Mineola Fair will not be held in Memorial Park this year, but instead moved to the downtown area of the village closer to shops and other local businesses. The village board unanimously voted to move the fair at a recent board meeting.
Albertson resident Gerald Magaldi has withdrawn his petition as a Mineola school board candidate. District Superintendent Michael Nagler announced the withdrawal during last Thursday's meeting of the board of education at the Willis Avenue School.
Magaldi had spoken to District Clerk Donna Martillo and submitted a letter withdrawing his candidacy last week. No reason was given at the meeting for Magaldi's withdrawal.
(Editor's note: As of press time, Gerard Magaldi has withdrawn from the race. His comments will still be presented in this story.)
The Mineola School District Council of PTA's held Meet the Candidates Night last Monday. Cindy Velez and Robin Bischoff hosted the event. Village trustee Paul Cusato moderated the panel.
Preliminary traffic study findings near the Cross Street School were released during the April 27 Mineola School District Board of Education meeting at Willis Avenue School. The traffic study was ordered by the Village of Williston Park to gauge the congestion issues that could occur after Cross Street closes and the building is leased to the Solomon Schechter Day School (SSDS) of Nassau County in Glen Cove.
Amid the rampant rumors about the future structure of the Nassau County Police Department, Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano attended last Tuesday's Mineola Chamber of Commerce meeting at Piccola Bussola. He detailed the current economic "structure" of Nassau County, highlighted happenings in the county and responded to recent rumors of the changes coming to the NCPD.
The board of trustees of the Incorporated Village of Mineola unanimously approved the village budget during the April 20 work session. The tax increase discussed on April 13 has seen a decrease from 3.65 to 3.5 percent. The village budget is approximately $18.5 million.

Amanda from Oswego, IL– Verified Buyer
Despite being a little high maintenance I absolutely love this thing for it's good looks!! Finish looks high quality and well built. Watering system is just OK, it doesn't leak or anything, but it doesn't seem to water all the pockets consistently, so I just use a spray bottle as needed. Take the time to research the plants you put inside and carefully choose those without long, heavy stems - my ferns and ivys are doing great but others I picked just werent suited for the planter and some weren't getting enough light where I have it on the wall. The frame comes with 3 templates with the suggested plants identified but I had trouble finding many varieties locally and was just too eager to get it up on the wall!
Deanna Schultz from San Diego
Make sure you measure it- many reviewers on various sites said it was smaller than they were expecting. I think the size is perfect I placed two in line vertically on a skinny wall by my kitchen to grow herbs. So far they are doing well. The drip system does not work as I expected. It runs all the water through right away instead of dripping over the course of a few hours. Regardless, all the plants from the top to the bottom receive enough water. Looks beautiful on the wall with all the greenery growing.
love it!

I bought two of these and added some really cool indoor plants in them.

Amy from Stevens Point, WI– Verified Buyer
Wish I could add a photo, its so pretty, I got the unfinished one and painted it bright red, filled it with succulents and hung it on the west side of the house. It is shockingly small for the price, but it is made well and the wood is of good quality.
Very Unique
Nils from Melfort, SK– Verified Buyer
Not as big as you think it us, but still very cool. Does't quite sit flush against the wall because of the water collector, but not a deal breaker. Easy to plant.
So different...
Catherine from NY, NY– Verified Buyer
It looks great in my living room. And nobody believes me when I tell them they are real plants growing in it!! Definitely a conversation piece!
gerald from rockford, IL– Verified Buyer
Looks great on my wall. I have received many compliments about the living wall. My choice of plants are doing very well. I plan to purchase an additional Living Art Frame in the future.
Great Price Compared to Nursery!
Lisa from Austin, TX– Verified Buyer
This arrived quickly and on time. I give it four stars because the woodfinish looks a little fake. Wayfair had a much better price compared to Nursery. Can't wait to plant and hang!
Donna from Edmonton, AB– Verified Buyer

"House Rules" – The NCIS team consults with three cyber-terrorists they imprisoned after a city-wide Internet shutdown the week before Christmas. Also, McGee reflects on the case and Gibbs' infamous rules as he pens a heartfelt letter to his father, on NCIS, Tuesday, Dec. 16 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT), on the CBS Television Network.
CHEAT TWEET: McGee reflects on Gibbs' rules as he pens a heartfelt letter to his father #NCIS #CBS 12/16 8pm
This Tuesday at 8/7c, a Thanksgiving-themed episode of CBS' NCIS will serve a side dish of Bishop insight alongside a main course of terrorist drama, when the probie agent, her husband Jake and Agent Tony DiNozzo spend their time stranded at the airport investigating a threat to holiday travelers.
Coming on the heels of an episode which shed much-needed light on Gibbs' kid-gloves treatment of Bishop, TVLine thought it time to check in with Emily Wickersham on that emotional reveal, Battlestar Galactica alum Jamie Bamber's debut as her TV husband and more.
TVLINE | Looking at the pictures from this week's episode, it would appear that before we get to the high drama of it all, the whole team gets to meet Bishop's husband. Does anyone offer immediate feedback?
Initially, when he first comes in, Abby (played by Pauley Perrette) is like, "Aww, Ellie, he's adorable!" – in her Abby way. And then he meets the whole gang, with the exception of Tony. We meet Tony a bit later on.
TVLINE | That's during the main thrust of the episode, when the three of you find yourselves stranded at the airport?
D.C. is having a very cold, snowy Thanksgiving, and Jake and I are off to Turks and Caicos for a much-needed vacation when we find out that all these delays are happening. Then, after we run into Tony (Michael Weatherly) at the airport and the guys get to meet, we find out that there is some chatter about a possible situation involving a terrorist, so we kind of spend the entire episode in the airport.
TVLINE | Is there the faintest whiff of Die Hard 2 amidst it all?
[Laughs] Uh, I guessssss you could say that, maybe….
TVLINE | Tony's not charging across a snow-covered tarmac waving a pistol at a jumbo jet?
No. That would be awesome, but no.
TVLINE | What assistance is Jake able to offer, as an NSA attorney?
Well, he doesn't really know what he has gotten himself into at first. He kind of lets Ellie take the lead and is in a lot of ways is in awe of her. He'd seen her do her thing when they worked together at the NSA, but he hasn't really seen her in action at NCIS, so this is the first moment that he sees what she does every day. But Jake actually helps out with his NSA skills, which is pretty cool. What was interesting to play, and was an interesting thing to read on the page,Grounded is that there's this whole new dynamic in their relationship, because at the NSA they were able to talk about their days. But now with just him being in NSA, they can't do that.
TVLINE | But would you still call them a "happy "couple?
Yeah! Definitely. I think everyone is going to absolutely love Jake.
TVLINE | How was Mr. Bamber as a husband? Did you join his fangirls in lamenting him not using his native accent?
I know! Jamie has a lot of great, great fans out there, and he has a wonderful accent. I'm sure many were disappointed that it wouldn't be in the NCIS episode.
TVLINE | So, the last episode had a really important moment where Gibbs (Mark Harmon) called Bishop on the carpet, and they kind of worked through some stuff that neither of them quite knew had been in the air there for over a year now. Do you think that was always the plan, for it to be this deep-seated thing with Gibbs, where he was purposely allowing her to skate? Or could it have been written in in response to viewer reaction?The Searchers
That's a good question…. I think he did that because of the two agents that he had lost before. He was just trying a different approach….
TVLINE | But you don't know for certain if that was [showrunner] Gary [Glasberg]'s plan from the get go? "We're going to have Gibbs treat Bishop differently and not say why, but ultimately…"?
That's a question for Gary; to be honest, I don't really know. My take on it is Gibbs was just trying things differently. A lot has happened and come from that desk [where Kate Todd and Ziva David previously sat], and he didn't want to tilt things one way or the other. He wanted to keep things pretty stable and forge ahead.
TVLINE | Did you ever wonder why the mighty Gibbs was so tolerant of your character's quirks?
I like to think that he trusted Bishop all along and felt like, "She's really smart, she's super-capable. Although she has these weird quirks, she's going to get the job done at the day." It was a really fun episode to shoot, playing that sort of conflict. It shows a huge growth in their relationship and also for Bishop personally. It exposes this whole new side of her to fans.
TVLINE | Do you think she feels more a part of team as a result?
Yeah! To me she is more a part of the team than ever, but also she's real. She's flawed. She's not perfect. She doesn't get 100 percent on every test, she's not as perfect as she, I think, first was written, which I loved.
TVLINE | As an actress, are you glad to no longer be sitting on floors and desks? Was it uncomfortable? Was your butt falling asleep?
Sometimes! [Laughs] On certain takes it was.
TVLINE | Looking back on your first year-and-change with the show, have you seen why TV's most watched drama is TV's most watched drama?
It's interesting – when I first joined, I was kind of nervous all the time, especially at the very beginning. The No. 1 show in the world, these people had been working for so long….
TVLINE | You were filling a void of sorts…
Yeah. And I didn't know what to expect. I knew how much this show impacts people around the world, but I've now seen, by working with them, that it's about the chemistry between the cast and between the characters. All the hard work that everyone puts in every day shows on-screen, and that connects with people.
TVLINE | In today's TV climate, it's really something else to be drawing 20 million viewers a week [in Live+7], in Year 12.
It's insane. Its pretty crazy when you think about it.
TVLINE | And they're not doing it with aliens or sci-fi.It doesn't have any big "trick," just good stories.
It's good stories, well-written. And again, the characters are like real people in the way that they're quirky and not just one-sided. They're weird, they're smart, they're very dynamic, which is what we are. It's not like your regular procedural television show.
NCIS — Airdate: Tuesday, Dec. 16 (CBS, 8/7c)
Why You Need to Watch: Because it's an "entire episode about Gibbs' Rules," previews showrunner Gary Glasberg. "The rules have become a big part of the show's moral and professional compass, and who better than Tim McGee to guide us through the list."
What have you got about my sexy man Tony on NCIS? — Marla, via Twitter
You definitely haven't seen the last of Keats, Tony's former partner with whom some sparks flew recently. "That connection…will come up again at some point," executive producer Gary Glasberg tells us. "It was a tough year for Tony DiNozzo last year. We're going to continue down the road of getting back to what we call the old Tony DiNozzo — [seeing him] spreading his wings a little bit and enjoying himself." But not all the character's exploration will come through love interests. Glasberg teases that Robert Wagner will return as Tony Sr. in a winter episode that offers "more insight into Tony DiNozzo when he was younger."
Question: Any intel on NCIS? —Marsha
Ausiello: The Dec. 16 holiday episode (which also doubles as the fall finale) marks the return of three notorious cyber terrorists: Former Systems Administrator Kevin Hussein (played by Ethan Rains), Heidi Partridge (Erin Allin O'Reilly) and Lester Patel Ajay Khan (Vik Sahay). In the wake of a city-wide Internet blackout the week before Christmas, the NCIS team pulls the trio out of prison to help with the case, and, whaddaya know, I've got an exclusive first look at their comeback below!
On Tuesday's episode of NCIS (8/7c, CBS), Gibbs (Mark Harmon) and the rest of the team are trying to exonerate a former Navy Hospital Corpsman (guest star Laura Seay) who's indicted after illegally providing medical aid to the victims of a car crash.
While Good Samaritan laws are in place to protect bystanders who offer aid at the scene of an accident, the legalities become blurry when military personnel are involved. "The idea that you can have this extraordinary training in the field, and yet for whatever reason, that training doesn't legally and officially transfer back to working in the public in the United States, was interesting to us," NCIS showrunner Gary Glasberg told TVGuide.com. "I don't entirely understand the reasoning behind it. But at the end of the day, we all agreed that it's worth bringing up, and it was the kind of thing that Gibbs would question and … want to do everything he could to help her."
Adds Seay: "The way that the laws are written, it doesn't seem to make room for this particular type scenario and even more specifically, people coming from a military medical background. It seems like when you're in the military, you're also sort of agreeing to adhere to a whole separate set of legislative things, almost as if you're going to another country. And when you come out of that country, it's interesting the way that our judicial system doesn't really line up or make way for those unusual circumstances and training."
Producers paired Seay up with a real corpsman to advise on how to approach her character, Anna Dillon, and the issue at large. "Marines, period, but especially corpsmen — because they're the medics that work with the Marines on the frontlines —hold themselves to a really, really, really high standard. Excellence is key," Seay says. "After this travesty has happened, even though [Anna] saved two lives, she can't really get the third one out of her head. … I think that's actually more what she's haggling with, at least in the first part of the episode, than any sort of legal aspect of it. And I think Gibbs can see that, and he's trying to help her contend with both parts — one that's dealing with it ethically, and the other that, oh yeah, there's this legal thing too that I guess I'm a part of."
Of course, the accident isn't entirely what it seems to be at first, and the team also finds itself immersed in a murder investigation before the episode concludes. But for Glasberg, it was important to shed light on an issue that many are unaware of.
"Coming off the heels of Veterans Day, it's an important episode for people to watch, and some really lovely performances on everyone's part, including Laura," he says. "I hope it opens some eyes and people enjoy it."
NCIS airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on CBS.
You're trained to save lives in war, but when you try to do the same outside the battle ground, you're persecuted.
That's essentially the story of NCIS Season 12 Episode 8, which will find Anna Dillon being brought to the attention of our team as she's detained after helping save the lives of some car crash victims.
However, while Anna is trained in service, she is not licensed to do the same in the real world. Leroy Gibbs to the rescue!
Tonight's episode is sure to get people talking about what is right and wrong in the laws – but it also features some fine performances by Mark Harmon and guest star Laura Seay. Fans will also be treated to a lighter story involving Abby's dating life, as the team is concerned about her pattern of dating men.
To get more insight into the installment, I talked with Seay and showrunner Gary Glasberg. Read on for excerpts from our exclusive Q&A…
TV Fanatic: Where did the story come from for this episode?
Gary Glasberg: This was a storyline that came up and was actually written by two of my writers assistants. Scott and Matt Jarrett. It's their writing television debut and they came to us with a terrific idea, something that we weren't even aware of. The fact that you can train to be a Navy corpsman but that training doesn't legally transfer back into the public world back on US soil was of interest to us. We thought that it was the kind of thing that Gibbs would connect with.
TVF: Why was this something that Gibbs responded to so strongly?
GG: I think at the end of the day Gibbs recognizes that there's a loop hole in the system and this is a woman who dedicated her life to helping people and threw herself into some very dangerous situations and is very qualified at what she does yet she's persecuted for trying to save lives. We lucked out in finding Laura. Once in a while you open up your casting and people come in and audition. I hadn't heard of Laura before but there's a comfort level, there's a natural ease to how she acts and who she is and she and Harmon hit it off. It just worked. To us, it just felt natural, organic and real.
TVF: I felt the same way and I was waiting for them to say 'come join the team!'
GG: [laughs] When you find someone like that and everyone gets along as well as they do no set, it wouldn't surprise me down the road if we find a reason to have her back or maybe we'll arrive at a crime scene and there's an EMT and it's her! We'll have to see…
TVF: We get a piece of Abby's personal life with her dating Burt and we also touch on her past dating McGee but why was this the right time to have that be a part of this episode?
GG: The Burt storyline is something that people seem to like and he's fun to have around and we'll keep that runner going. But realistically and understandably we couldn't do it without McGree look out for Abby in a big brother kind of way. It was fun to write those scenes and to have Bishop be the outsider who wasn't aware of the fact that Abby and McGee had a relationship years ago. It's a recap for people and reestablish but I was pleased with it. I thought it turned out nicely.
TVF: What's coming up? I know Jamie Bamber is showing up soon.
GG: We've been waiting a long time to meet Bishop's husband and the Thanksgiving episode is just about finished and we're polishing it up and we have this terrific mystery at a snowed in airport that has Tony and Bishop and her husband working with the rest of the team back in the office. It's a fun, light holiday episode. Jamie and Emily have great chemistry together and we look forward to having him back and getting deeper into who they are as a couple and how being an NCIS agent as affected their relationship.
TVF: There's a mention of Gibb's father passing in tonight's episode. Will we get more of that in the holiday episodes?
GG: I don't think so. It's the kind of thing that continues to come up but we want to make sure it's always there, always present and his passing is still a part of what Gibbs is thinking about and dealing with. In classic NCIS fashion, you can touch on the subject and keep him around and understand that he was an important part of Gibbs' life.

Next, Laura Seay provided some insight into her character as well as working with Mark Harmon.
TV Fanatic: How did you approach stepping into this role of Anna Dillon?
Laura Shey: There were a lot of things about her that I related to personality wise so that felt like a good way in. She seems very rigid in her physicality because she's had that training. I'm not going to compare growing up doing sports and being in the military but I was excited about this aspect of her having that as part of her personality and being very rooted physically.
I really related to her on an intellectual and a physical level and the fact that she was also very driven, I really admired that but when it got down to the moral aspect of it and how she's contending with these really ethical issues…I can't say that I've been in the such a heightened position as she was in this particular episode but personality wise, I did relate to her in a couple ways but in terms of her experiences that was something that took a little extra work.
Honestly, being paired with a real life corpsman that worked with the Marines, Mark Horowitz, one of the producers on the show, was able to facilitate that and that really helped me get in the experience of the character and hear his stories and hear what he's been through.
TVF: The show says a lot about doing what's right and what's wrong with the laws. Did it make you think about that in the context of the show or in general?
LS: Yeah. As far as the issues, I was aware of it in more of a vague way and I knew there were certain laws about if you don't have the training you shouldn't attempt to move somebody for fear of paralization and there would be consequences in that way but in terms of the military and the laws of the military someone coming out of service who has a lot of training but it's not held at the same standards as what the University programs for studying medicine.
I didn't know how nuanced the issue actually is and how unnuanced the law for the issue actually is. The law doesn't seem to be written for people in Anna's situation. She has extensive medical training in the military but for whatever reason she's not licensed as an EMT to practice in the US. So it's a very unnuanced law for a very nuanced issue. That's what I came away with.
TVF: How was working with Mark Harmon? Anna has a really nice connection with Gibbs.
LS: Yeah, he made that real easy. He's incredibly friendly and he's also very authentic and sincere. From day one of shooting he made me feel like I'd been on the show a lot longer. It's hard to be going on as a guest star to a show with people who have been working together for twelve seasons. It's like where do I sit at the lunch table kind of feeling! He really alleviates that immediately and right away he was taking me under his wing and wanted to get to know me and where I was from. The majority of my scenes are with him just talking so that helped make it a lot easier. It was like there was a shorthand between us, which was great.
TVF: Let's say they ask you to come back for another episode. Is that something you're open to?
LS: Yeah! I would absolutely love that. Besides Mark, everyone in the cast was really exceptional and lovely even just the eight days I was shooting and that goes for everyone on the production crew. It was a really fun experience.
NCIS Season 12 airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on CBS.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) introduced the bipartisan USA FREEDOM Act in October, 2013. The House of Representatives passed an amended bill by a vote of 303-121. In July, Chairman Leahy introduced a revised USA FREEDOM Act that reclaimed lost provisions from the original bill and strengthened privacy protections. Last week, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) filed for cloture on the measure.
Congressman Sensenbrenner: "The USA FREEDOM Act has been heavily negotiated since Chairman Leahy and I introduced it over a year ago. The bipartisan bill before the Senate has my full support and has been endorsed by an eclectic coalition, ranging from tech giants and privacy advocates to the Administration and Intelligence Community. There is no excuse not to pass this critical legislation during the lame duck. We have gone to great lengths to ensure our civil liberties are protected without compromising our national security. As the primary author of the Patriot Act, I know the importance of our intelligence gathering authorities, but the law must be used as Congress intended. It's time to get this done and restore Americans' trust in their government."Read More
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) introduced the bipartisan USA FREEDOM Act in October, 2013. Last May, the House Judiciary Committee and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence approved an amended version of the legislation unanimously. The House of Representatives then passed a further amended bill by a vote of 303-121.
In July, Chairman Leahy introduced a revised USA FREEDOM Act that reclaimed lost provisions from the original bill and strengthened privacy protections. It is endorsed by the Intelligence Community, the Administration and numerous technology companies and privacy groups.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid tonight filed for cloture on the measure. A vote is possible as early as next week.
Congressman Sensenbrenner: "Although far too many good bills continue to collect dust on Senator Reid's desk, I am pleased he has finally decided to move the USA FREEDOM Act. There is no excuse not to pass this fundamental piece of legislation during the lame duck. Once the Senate acts, I encourage my colleagues in the House and the President to be prepared to promptly enact it into law. Senator Leahy and I introduced the USA FREEDOM Act over a year ago. It is past time for Washington to ensure Americans' civil liberties are protected while preserving important intelligence gathering authorities that are vital to our national security."Read More
Members of the House Judiciary Committee, Congressmen Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.), Howard Coble (R-N.C.), Spencer Bachus (R-Ala.), Rodney Davis (R-Ill.), Tom Marino (R-Pa.) and Dave Joyce (R-Ohio), today sent the following letter to Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) requesting a mark-up of H.R. 3465, the Second Chance Reauthorization Act:
Dear Chairman Goodlatte:
We write to respectfully request that the House Judiciary Committee schedule a mark-up of the Second Chance Reauthorization Act (H.R. 3465).
As you know, the Over-Criminalization Task Force's hearings have revealed several problems facing the criminal justice system. While many of these issues are complex and require novel legislative reforms that may be impracticable to introduce and move this session, the Judiciary Committee can and should use the remaining days left in session to ensure that initiatives with proven outcomes, like Second Chance, continue to protect public safety.
Since the Second Chance Act was signed into law by President Bush in 2008, over 90,000 men, women, and youth returning home from prisons, jails, and juvenile facilities have benefited from Second Chance grants providing career training, mentoring, family-based substance abuse treatment, and other evidence-based reentry programs.
This investment has paid off in public safety dividends. The enclosed reports from the National Reentry Resource Center highlight how numerous states have experienced drastic reductions in statewide recidivism rates as a result of robust reentry services made possible in part through Second Chance.
The outcomes are impressive, but state and local governments as well as non-profit organizations are in dire need of resources in order to ensure that the millions of individuals returning from prison, jail, and juvenile facilities each year continue to receive coordinated evidence-based reentry services.
As you know, we have made several improvements to the legislation. Underutilized or redundant programs have been cut, additional accountability measures have been added for grantees, the authorization level has been reduced from $160 million to $100 million per year, and the types of grants available to community and faith-based non-profits have been expanded. As a result, we have garnered significant bipartisan support in the House and Senate, and as evidenced in the enclosed letter, nearly 482 law enforcement, faith-based and other community organizations from across the country have endorsed the bill.
Our constituents understand that successful reentry means safer communities and are eager for Congress to take action to reauthorize this critical program.
Thank you for your leadership on this Committee and for your commitment to protect public safety through recidivism reduction programs. We look forward to working with you to advance this vital legislation.
Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) today continued his oversight of civil asset forfeiture, sending the below letter to Attorney General Eric Holder regarding federal adoption.
On October 16, Congressman Sensenbrenner sent oversight letters to the Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the Acting Director of the Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency requesting information on each agency's participation in the Department of Justice's asset forfeiture program, specifically their processes for administrative review of property seizures.
Dear Attorney General Holder:
Federal adoption occurs when a federal agency adopts a seizure from a state or local law enforcement agency and proceeds with federal forfeiture. Numerous Department of Justice (DOJ or Department) entities are authorized to adopt state and local seizures. Under the Department's Equitable Sharing Program, DOJ will share up to 80 percent of forfeited funds with the seizing agency.
Federal adoptions have grown exponentially in recent years. From 2001 to 2013, state and local law enforcement made nearly 62,000 cash seizures without a warrant or criminal indictment through the Equitable Sharing Program. State and local authorities have received over $1.7 billion from these seizures while federal agencies have kept $800 million.
The Equitable Sharing Program is frequently criticized because it allows state and local police to ignore restrictions on civil asset forfeiture in their home states. In some cases, it gives them a direct financial incentive to do so. A 2011 study published in the Journal of Criminal Justice found that local and state police are in fact more likely to rely on the federal Equitable Sharing Program if they work in a state where civil forfeiture is more difficult or less rewarding. The disturbing conclusion is that local agency's rely on the Equitable Sharing Program to circumvent state law.
The implications on civil liberties are dire. The right to own property is a fundamental right implicitly recognized in the Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. I also believe that it is a human right.
Daniel Webster warned that "[g]ood intentions will be pleaded for every assumption of power." With federal adoption, the federal government gives DOJ's imprimatur to state cases and then shares proceeds of the forfeiture with the very law enforcement agency that seized the property. The conflict of interest for these state and local agencies is so stark, over a right so critical, that it screams for protections and redundancies of protections against abuse. It is therefore critical that the Department maintain clear standards regarding how its entities weigh and ultimately adopt state and local cases.
To help further understanding of the Department's policies regarding federal adoption, please respond to the following questions by November 14, 2014.
• Please describe the federal adoption process from the time a state applies for adoption through a final decision.
• What percentage of state requests are ultimately adopted? What is the breakdown of adoptions among the Department's law enforcement entities?
• To apply for federal adoption, a state or local agency must fill out Form Dag-71. The form requires an "immediate probable cause review" if certain specified conditions are not met. What does this review involve? Is the review always conducted prior to adoption when the specified conditions are not met?
• Seizures must be based on probable cause. What evidence does the Department require to ensure that the standard of proof has been met prior to adopting a seizure?
• Does a federal adoption represent a DOJ determination that there was probable cause to support the state or local seizure?
• What officials are authorized to approve a request for adoption?
With your response, please provide 25 samples of closed DEA and ATF case files. Please ensure that the files contain all the documents originally contained therein. Thank you for your prompt attention to this important issue.
A leading House lawmaker on Friday asked U.S. Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. to provide an array of documents and data relating to the Justice Department's role in tens of thousands of cash and property seizures made in recent years by state and local police under federal civil asset forfeiture laws.
The request by Rep. F. James "Jim" Sensenbrenner Jr. (R-Wis.), chairman of the House Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security and Investigations, is part of an inquiry into the billions of dollars in seizures made through Justice's Equitable Sharing Program, the federal government's largest asset forfeiture initiative.
"While we must ensure law enforcement is properly equipped, they should not be funded by slush funds accrued by violating Americans' civil liberties," Sensenbrenner said in a statement Friday.
Sensenbrenner asked Holder for details about the policies governing such seizures and the standard of proof necessary before the federal government "adopts" a state or local seizure into the Equitable Sharing Program. Federal civil seizures can occur when police say they believe property is tied to crime through a preponderance of the evidence.
Sensenbrenner said he is concerned that local authorities turn to the Justice program when state civil asset forfeiture laws are stricter than the federal standards. He said he worries that police have sometimes trampled individual rights when making cash and property seizures without filing criminal charges.
"The implications on civil liberties are dire," he said in the Oct. 24 letter. "The right to own property is a fundamental right implicitly recognized in the Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. I also believe that it is a human right."
Sensenbrenner's request follows a Washington Post investigation that found that 61,998 cash seizures have been made on U.S. highways and elsewhere since 9/11 without search warrants or indictments through Equitable Sharing, totaling more than $2.5 billion.
Justice, Homeland Security and other federal agencies received $800 million of that total, and the rest went to states and localities.
Friday's letter follows similar requests for documents from the Drug Enforcement Administration and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement. In those letters, Sensenbrenner sought details about how challenges from cash and property owners are handled.
Though owners can seek to get their property back through the federal courts, the cost is often prohibitive. Sensenbrenner noted that there is an administrative process for property owners but agency decisions there are "not subject to subsequent challenge."
The Post investigation found that only about a sixth of the seizures were challenged. But in 41 percent of the challenged cases — more than 4,000 — the government agreed to return all or part of the money. The appeals process often took more than a year and required owners of the cash to sign agreements not to sue police over the seizures.
"Given these inherent conflicts, what procedures and protections exist to ensure fair adjudications of the claims and to protect against conflicts of interest?" Sensenbrenner wrote.
He told The Post in a statement that the asset forfeiture system "raises serious Constitutional and ethical red flags. I strongly believe this deserves scrutiny and aggressive Congressional oversight."

F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr., (Jim), represents the Fifth Congressional District of Wisconsin. The Fifth District includes parts of Milwaukee, Dodge and Waukesha counties, and all of Washington and Jefferson counties.
Jim was born in Chicago and later moved to Wisconsin with his family. He graduated from the Milwaukee Country Day School and did his undergraduate studies at Stanford University, where he majored in political science. He then earned his law degree at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1968.
After serving ten years in the Wisconsin State Legislature, Jim ran for a U.S. House seat and was elected in November, 1978. He has been reelected since 1980.
Jim's current committee assignments include serving on the Committee on Science and Technology and the Committee on the Judiciary. Congressman Sensenbrenner is Chairman of the Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security and Oversight Subcommittee. He is also a member of the Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, and Internet, and the Subcommittees on Environment and Oversight.
He is the former Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, and as a long-serving committee member, Jim has established a strong record on crime, intellectual property and constitutional issues. Previously, Jim also served as Chairman of the House Committee on Science, where he solidified his reputation as an independent leader on science issues, as well as oversight.
Throughout his public life, Jim has been at the forefront of efforts to preserve the sanctity of life, eliminate wasteful government spending and protect the interests of American taxpayers. He has regularly been cited by the National Taxpayers Union as one of the most fiscally responsible House Members and is well known for completing his financial disclosure forms down to the penny.
Jim is proud of his many legislative achievements that have helped improve the lives of many during his tenure in Congress.
In 1977, Jim married Cheryl Warren of Green Bay, Wisconsin, a staunch advocate for the rights of the disabled. They have two adult children, Frank and Bob. In his free time, Jim enjoys watching the Packers and reading.

County unemployment improves slightlyPublished 10:09pm Friday, March 25, 2011
MONTGOMERY (AP) — Alabama's unemployment rate held steady at 9.3 percent in February and remained above the national average.
State Industrial Relations Director Tom Surtees announced Friday the rate was unchanged from January, but it was much better than the 10.2 percent recorded a year ago. The comparable national rate was 8.9 percent for February and 9.7 percent a year ago.
Alabama's February rate represented 197,056 Alabamians looking for work.
In the Black Belt, the unemployment rates remained far and above the state and national averages, recording the worst of any area in Alabama.
Wilcox County reported the highest employment in the state with 21.4 percent, while Dallas and Lowndes counties both reported 16.2 percent unemployment. Perry County reported an unemployment rate of 16.5 percent.
Dallas County's figure was a slight improvement over January's 16.5 percent figure and is much improved from last February's figure of 19.0 percent.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Alabama's rate was better than its neighboring states. Tennessee measured 9.6 percent, Georgia and Mississippi tied at 10.2 percent, and Florida had 11.5 percent.
Alabama counties with the lowest unemployment rates were Shelby at 7.1 percent, Coffee at 7.5 percent, and Madison at 7.8 percent. Counties with the highest rates were Wilcox, Monroe at 16.9 percent and Clarke at 16.6 percent.

Thanks to Pecatonica Fire Department
Thank you to the first responders of the Pecatonica Fire Department for assisting one of our patients in a time of crisis.
During the late night of July 19, as the heat intensity grew, the power went out in the home of one of our hospice patients. This situation was extremely serious because the patient's oxygen tanks were reliant on electrical power. After talking with our nurse, the family took our suggestion and called the Pecatonica Fire Department, who responded immediately. Not only did they supply oxygen, they placed the patient in the air-conditioned ambulance until the medical equipment company could deliver replacement tanks and power was restored to the house.
The care provided to our patient by the Pecatonica Fire Department was above and beyond. We have said it many times, and we will say it again: This region is filled with amazing, generous people who do not hesitate for a moment at the opportunity to help their neighbors. When those in need ask for help, people respond.
Thank you again to the Pecatonica Fire Department for their quick and generous response. Working collaboratively, we were able to fulfill our goal of bringing comfort to our dying patients and their families.
Carol A. Bennett, Executive Director
Bobbi Leu, Clinical Care Director
