March 24, 2014
A video segment from Total Divas, where Naomi Knight confronts Cameron, her tag team partner, for showing racy pictures of Eva Marie to the other performers backstage in WWE.

March 24, 2014

March 24, 2014

It features Nikki Bella, Brie Bella, Cameron, Naomi Knight, Natalya Neidhart and Eva Marie as returning cast members. It also features Summer Rae, who is expected to take up a lot of the spot light. JoJo Offerman is not on there, confirming her departure from the series.
February 19, 2014
There's been quite a bit of speculation this week about former divas returning to WWE. The latest name on the rumor mill is Maryse Ouellet. A big part of that is because the Miz mentioned the possibility on Twitter. There are those that believe that Maryse could be interested in a return, if it meant that she would get a spot on Total Divas. The exposure could help her business ventures exponentially.
November 18, 2014
There are reports floating around right now that the reason why AJ Lee was not chosen to be a cast member on Total Divas is because she is married to CM Punk. However, she has repeatedly stated in the past that she was not interested in doing a reality television show. She enjoys her privacy and prefers to focus on being a wrestler. Management recently added Alicia Fox and Paige to the series.
October 21, 2014
Since Nikki Bella and Cameron have confirmed it publicly, the widespread belief among fans is that the cast member of Total Divas are not allowed to hold a championship in WWE. Stephanie McMahon, however, is disputing that rumor. During a recent interview, she flat out denied it when asked about the rumor. McMahon stated that it would be great for one of the cast members to hold the belt because it would drive more attention to the story.
October 21, 2014
The expanding cast of Total Divas will include Alicia Fox next season. WWE has decided to include as many of their female performers as possible on the show, and Alicia was quite willing to sign up for the reality television show. For a lot of the girls, the hope is that the extra exposure will help them build up their name value for when they eventually leave the company and pursue other things.
October 20, 2014
In an attempt to draw in even more viewers, the producers of Total Divas and WWE have decided to add new faces to the show. Paige was chosen to be one of the two cast additions. She is young, has a different look, is from England and has already been the Divas champion. Speculations are that the show will portray her as the new girl being given preferential treatment from management.
October 20, 2014
Reports have surfaced about a rather interesting real life relationship backstage in WWE. Rosa Mendes was said to have been dating Michael Hayes for a period of time. Former wrestlers have alluded to the seemingly inappropriate relationship in the past, but the names were withheld. Word going around is that Hayes was quite the advocate in getting Rosa on Total Divas. The two are said to be broken up now.
October 9, 2014
Vince McMahon reportedly has a rule about the cast of Total Divas. None of them are allowed to hold the championship while they are a part of that reality show. No word yet on why McMahon has that rule in place right now, but it is quite peculiar since WWE basically scripts a lot of their segments based on what is happening on Total Divas.
September 25, 2014
Despite not being a major topic of conversation among the internet wrestling community, the season premier of Total Divas did really well this week. They managed to draw in over a million viewers. If the show can manage to maintain that type of number, then there's a very good chance that the relationship between WWE and E! will continue. Rosa Mendes was added to the cast this year, so a new diva could be added if another season were to follow.
September 9, 2014
During a media interview to promote Total Divas, Brie Bella revealed that Daniel Bryan would not be needing the second surgery that has long been rumored to repair his neck injury. She stated that her husband was gaining the strength back in his right arm and could be back as soon as three months, which would enable WWE to have him make a surprise return at Royal Rumble 2015.
September 7, 2014
WWE wanted to create a buzz for Rosa Mendes and the upcoming season of Total Divas, and it looks like the company has accomplished that. Fans are talking about the preview clip where Rosa is naked on one of the episodes. She is in a hotel room, and Natalya Neidhart walks in on her. Obviously, the network won't be showing her fully nude, but it's enough to pique interest in the show.
September 5, 2014
Not a whole lot of fans are aware of this, but Naomi Knight has been missing in action for WWE for a couple of weeks now. The Total Divas star has now revealed that she has been on the sidelines because she needed minor surgery to help further repair her injured eye. Naomi last worked a tag team match on an episode of Monday Night Raw at the end of July.
August 30, 2014
There are speculations right now that Rosa Mendes could be on the receiving end of a push from WWE. She recently stated in an interview that she has never won a singles match via pin fall on television before. The belief is that she is planting the seeds for an underdog story line. Rosa chasing the championship could be a focal point on Total Divas.
August 23, 2014
At Summerslam 2014, fans witnessed the beginning of the feud between Nikki Bella and Brie Bella when the former turned on her sister and helped Stephanie McMahon win the match. The belief is that the feud was instigated by the producers of Total Divas. They wanted an intriguing story for the upcoming season of the show.
August 21, 2014
The camera crew for Total Divas was on hand this weekend to film the bridal shower for Eva Marie. Initially, some were under the belief that it was the actual wedding. However, it has now been confirmed that the official ceremony will be taking place later on this week. Footage from that event will more than likely be included in the upcoming season.
August 17, 2014
Rumors are going around that Ashley Flair has moved to the front of the line for a promotion from developmental to the main roster in WWE. There are some roadblocks in her way, though. Total Divas is set to become a major focus again very soon, so the writers will put an emphasis on them when writing Monday Night Raw. Flair might also have to wait a bit longer if Paige picks up more momentum in her feud with AJ Lee.
August 12, 2014
It looks like WWE will be utilizing the relationship between Cameron and her boyfriend a bit more during the next season of Total Divas. The belief is that something drastic will happen, where the couple will either break up or do a wedding. The heel turn and split from Naomi Knight was designed to put more attention into her character on the reality television show next season.
July 28, 2014
One of the ideas being floated around backstage in WWE is to turn Nikki Bella into a heel. The story would be that Stephanie McMahon finally gets to her by getting Nikki to believe that Brie Bella has left her hanging. Nikki would grow tired of being abused by the Authority, so she ends up doing a heel turn against her sister. The story would more than likely be featured on Total Divas as well.
July 22, 2014
TMZ has quite the fascination with WWE nowadays. The tabloid website recently reported that Nikki Bella, who recently received her real estate license, was spotted showing homes to Cameron and her boyfriend. The couple is getting pretty serious and is wanting to move in together. Cameron, who is one of the stars of Total Divas, stated that she wants a five bedroom place.
July 21, 2014
Since management did not want to have two divas matches on WWE Battleground 2014, the decision was made to have the match between Cameron and Naomi Knight take place on the kickoff show instead. The segment was needed for the upcoming season of Total Divas. Otherwise, the story would have been placed on the back burner once AJ Lee decided to make her return to WWE.
July 15, 2014
The big brawl between Naomi Knight and Cameron that you witnessed on Monday Night Raw this week was indeed the big breakup that has been teased over the last couple of weeks by WWE. As many already know, this story was set up for the sake of Total Divas, as producers wanted more dramatic stories for the reality television show. Since it is involved with another network, the belief is that WWE will get behind the story and put some emphasis on it.
July 9, 2014
A couple of years back, fans witnessed a real life shoot incident in the ring between JBL and the Blue Meanie. Some blood was involved. Apparently, the two of them have resolved their issues since then, as JBL took to Twitter to wish the Blue Meanie a happy birthday. The former WWE stars appear to be quite cordial with one another now.

Originally written on NBC San Diego | Last updated 11/18/14
San Diego Chargers wide receiver Malcom Floyd stood quietly at his locker, shedding piece after piece of football equipment after a long day of work. Maybe he meant it sincerely. Maybe he meant it sarcastically. Given his luck of late, his words Friday were probably a bit of both. "It's a blessing to make it out of a day's practice healthy," Floyd said. Floyd practiced for a third straight day in full, and the injury-maligned vertical weapon with a flare for the spectacular is on pace to return Monday night to face the Jacksonville Jaguars, adding big-play potential to an offense and team in great shortage. Sidelined the past four games with a hip injury, Floyd has watched a six-game skid that has seen it all: injuries to six of the top eight offensive linemen, including three for the season; a lot of giving away the ball — and at critical times — with little taking it back. But one overlooked aspect to this nearly lost campaign has been its absence of the big play. Chargers...

Ikea cabinets
We just re did our kitchen, ourselves... we used Home Depot's off the shelf (assemble ourselves) cabintes... MILLS PRIDE... this has a lifetime warranty. And we found while assembling the cabinets and calling for replacement parts on un acceptable items (minor blemishes) that they were more than happy to NEXT DAY replacement parts and door fronts to us FREE OF CHARGE! They were extremely inexpensive but dont look that way in the kitchen!
We did our 8 x 12 kitchen area for $2000... and we have ALOT of cabinets! They were easy to assemble, just like IKEA furniture, and look like a professional finish. The only thing we had someone else do is the corian countertop we wanted... thats a job for a pro.
If you can assemble IKEA furniture, you can do the MILLS PRIDE kitchen! If you want, I will send you a picture of the kitchen we did as novice do-it-yourselfers... just let me know directly via email.
I dont work for Mills Pride either... There are MANY choices and variables to choose from and MOST kitchens can be set up from off the shelf products! Give it a shot!

Russian Foreign Minister Urges West to Stay Out of Ukraine
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has urged European leaders and diplomats to refrain from interfering in the Ukraine crisis.
"We'd prefer that some of our European colleagues would not act so unceremoniously over the Ukrainian crisis, when without any invitations members of some European governments hurried to Maidan and took part in anti-government demonstrations", Lavrov told reporters, cited by RIA Novosti.
Clashes erupted in Kiev on Sunday, after long-lasting peaceful pro-EU rallies. At least 30 people have been arrested in the past days, and about 100 injured, including journalists and dozens of police officers.
The violent clashes were sparked by controversial laws passed last week, which widely limit the freedom of public expression, and allow the authorities to impose hefty fines and jail sentences to anti-government protesters.
On Monday, EU foreign ministers released a statement expressing "deep concern" about the new legislation, which they said was passed under "doubtful procedural circumstances."
Lavrov suggested that the most recent riots had been partly sparked by influence from abroad. This is not the first time since the protests began in November, when Russia openly criticizes western leaders and diplomats for their reactions.

HARRISONBURG, Va. (WHSV) -- City Council members will meet Tuesday night to discuss the final approval of a grant which would provide an additional $35,000 to small businesses needing loans.
Harrisonburg's Business Loan Program has helped more than six businesses get their start.
The majority are in the downtown area.
Ande Banks, the director of special projects, said this program will help revitalize downtown.
It started three years ago during the economic downturn when a lot of small businesses were having trouble getting credit.
Now, Banks said the additional funds could provide one or two more loans for small businesses needing support.
Shawn Richard, the owner of New Leaf Pastry, said if it was not for this financial support, starting his business would have been impossible.
"Aside from the financial support, there is the vote of confidence that I had the right business plan for the space by them accepting my proposal. And, also having the support of the visitors center," said Richard.
Tuesday night's meeting meeting will also discuss a request by Matchbox Realty for a special use permit for both a jewelry store and a brewery in downtown Harrisonburg.
Banks said the brewery has also received a loan from the program to help get its start.

1. Field of the Invention
The invention in general relates to monitoring systems, and particularly to apparatus for detecting undesired metal-to-metal contact between a rotary part and a stationary part of a rotary machine.
2. Description of the Prior Art
In rotating machinery a problem often arises wherein the rotating portion of the machinery contacts the stationary portion thus creating an unwanted and potentially dangerous rubbing condition. For example, in a steam turbine various steam seals exist in order to prevent steam leakage between blade rows as well as to prevent leakage where the rotor penetrates the outer cylinder of the turbine. A mechanical or thermal condition may occur whereby distortion or abnormal operation of the turbine parts may cause one or more of the seals or blades of the turbine to rub thus resulting in a potentially dangerous situation.
The presence of a rub will cause certain abnormal vibrations to occur in the turbine and generally a plurality of vibration sensors are mounted at various points on the turbine system to monitor such vibrations. Other techniques for monitoring rubs include the use of particular sensors for detecting the occurrence of acoustic emissions within the metal parts of the turbine, such acoustic emissions being generated as a result of certain abnormal operating conditions.
A problem arises, however, in the use of acoustic emission or vibration sensing techniques in that it is very often impossible to differentiate between a rub condition as opposed to other conditions relative to the turbine rotor, bearing, etc. which may provide signals similar to those provided by a rub condition.
An improved rub detection arrangement which detects modifications of ground current in the discharge path of such machines is described in copending application Ser. No. 383,400, filed June 1, 1982 and now U.S. Pat. No. 4,502,046.
The present invention, which may be used by itself or in conjunction with prior art techniques to determine the presence of an unwanted rub in rotating machinery, is a modification and improvement over the copending case.
A rotating machine in which rubs are to be detected includes a stationary machine assembly and a rotating assembly that rotates relative to it. By way of an example, the machine may be a turbine in which the rotating assembly is the turbine rotor. During normal operation, a static charge builds up on the rotor and grounding means are normally provided to the rotor to afford the static charge a path to ground. In the present arrangement, means are included for monitoring and providing an output indicative of the electrical potential of the rotor due to the charge build-up and means responsive to the output are provided for indicating whether a discharge of the charge build-up has taken place other than through the grounding means.
In one embodiment, grounding brushes are utilized and means are provided for obtaining an indication of any current discharge through the grounding brushes. In normal operation, the current discharge occurs simultaneously with a static voltage build-up discharge of the rotor which, if unaccompanied by a corresponding current discharge through the brushes is indicative of an alternate contact to ground, and accordingly, a rub.
In another arrangement, a grounding strap is used and is elevated from ground by a diode arrangement having a certain forward conducting bias. The rotor voltage is compared with a predetermined reference and the rotor is caused to discharge when the two voltages are equal. A periodic discharge waveform is examined to see if there are any premature discharges, indicative of a rub condition.
During operating conditions, when there is no static charge build-up, such as when the turbine is on turning gear, means are provided to simulate a charge build-up.

FIG. 8 illustrates yet another embodiment of the invention; and
FIG. 9 is an equivalent electrical circuit for the arrangement of FIG. 8.
Similar characters of reference indicate like parts in the several Figures of the drawings.
Although the invention is applicable to a variety of rotating machine arrangements, it will be described, by way of example, with respect to a turbine structure, and particularly to a steam turbine as depicted in FIG. 1.
The turbine 10 is comprised of a stationary assembly including an outer casing 12 commonly referred to as an outer cylinder, and an inner structure 14 commonly referred to as an inner cylinder and which is structurally connected to the outer cylinder 12. Various turbine designs may include multiple inner cylinders.
Steam enters the double-flow design depicted and steam expansion simultaneously takes place through turbine blade stages 16 and 16'. Blades 18 (and their primed counterparts) are stationary blades connected to the inner cylinder 14 whereas blades 20 (and their primed counterparts) are connected to rotor 22 and constitute rotor blades.
Rotor 22 is supported at first and second spaced-apart locations by respective bearings 24 and 25 both of which are of the journal-bearing type wherein rotor 22 is supported and rotates on a thin film of oil as depicted by numeral 27 in bearing 24 and by numeral 28 in bearing 25. The bearings themselves are supported on respective pedestal structures depicted by reference numerals 29 and 30.
In order to minimize steam leakage between blade rows, many turbines include some sort of sealing arrangement for the blades. Thus, a labyrinth type seal 34 is illustrated as the steam seal arrangement between the rotor blades 20 and inner casing 14, whereas labyrinth-type seals 35 are illustrated between the stationary blades 18 and rotor 22. Further, seals 38 and 39 are provided at the points where the rotor penetrates the outer cylinder so as to prevent leakage of air into, or steam from, the cylinders.
Due to its operating environment, a rotor 22 tends to build up an electrostatic charge and since the rotor is electrically isolated from the stationary assembly, a potentially dangerous voltage differential may build up across the oil film 27, 28, supporting the rotor. If the electrical rating of the thin film of oil is exceeded, an electric discharge may take place therethrough causing an arc-over which if continued, may result in burning of the lubricating oil, pitting, turbulence, and eventual bearing damage. In order to obviate this potentially dangerous condition, means are generally provided for maintaining the rotor 22 at the same electrical potential, generally ground, as the stationary assembly 12. This is accomplished with the provision of a grounding device 50 electrically connecting the rotor 22 to a pedestal structure 29 (or any other stationary portion of the turbine) so as to establish an electric current discharge path between the rotary and stationary portions of the machine. Typical grounding arrangements are illustrated by way of example in FIGS. 2A and 2B to which reference is now made.
In FIG. 2A the grounding device is comprised of a pair of electrically conducting brushes 54 and 55 such as carbon-graphite carried by respective metallic brush holders 56 and 57 pivotable around dowels 58 and 59. The brushes are spring-loaded against the rotating shaft 22 and are electrically connected to ground, indicated by numeral 60, so that any electrostatic charge built up in the turbine rotor may be carried to ground through the brushes and their respective holders.
Another type of grounding arrangement is illustrated in FIG. 2B and includes a grounding strap 62 of metallic braid which electrically contacts the rotor 22 as well as ground, indicated by numeral 64.
When a grounding arrangement, such as illustrated in FIG. 2A is utilized, there is an imperfect electrical contact between the rotor and conducting brushes thus resulting in a threshold voltage which must be exceeded before a static discharge occurs. This threshold voltage may vary, it is believed, as a result of a glaze build-up on the brushes due to the operating and environmental conditions. Discharges may also occur at times due to high spots on the rotating shaft which causes better electrical contact to be made.
Upon a normal discharge, the potential of the rotor becomes that of ground with the discharge being accompanied by a current pulse through the brush holder.
If there is a rub, the rotor will be contacting ground through some other discharge path and a rotor potential change will take place without an accompanying current pulse in the brush holder since the current is being conducted to ground elsewhere in the turbine. Accordingly, the arrangement of FIG. 3 monitors both rotor voltage and brush current to determine if there is coincidence between the rotor discharge and the brush holder current since the absence of such coincidence would be indicative of a rub condition.
In FIG. 3, a contact 68 is provided for monitoring the rotor potential and is physically touching the rotor. Means are also provided for sensing the brush current, such means taking the form of current transformers 70 and 71 serially arranged and operable to provide an output pulse upon a rotor discharge, and in the absence of a rub.
Means are provided for detecting the simultaneous occurrence of a discharge and consequent current pulse, such means taking the form of an anti-coincidence circuit operable to provide, on output line 76, an output pulse if, and only if, the two input conditions are not simultaneous. A differentiator 78 is included so as to provide circuit 74 with a pulse input indicative of the rotor potential discharge.
The output signal on line 76 may be provided to some sort of utilization device which would inform an operator of a potential rub condition. In the arrangement of FIG. 3, the anti-coincidence output signal is provided to an alarm circuit 80 as well as to an analyzer device 82. If a rub condition occurs, there is a high probability that during the initial stages of the rub, the output of circuit 74 will be synchronous with the rotor rotation. For example, FIG. 4A illustrates the output of anti-coincidence circuit 74 for one particular rub condition wherein a single output pulse is provided at the same point in each revolution. FIG. 4B illustrates a rub situation wherein three pulses are provided during each revolution of the rotor, with the pulses occupying their respective positions for each revolution. Analyzer 82 of FIG. 3 therefore may be operative to examine pulse signals such as in FIGS. 4A and 4B to determine whether or not they are rotor synchronous. In one form, the analyzer may simply be a narrow band filter designed to pass a frequency equivalent to the normal rotor angular speed. The output of analyzer 82 forms a second input to alarm circuit 80 which is operable to provide an output alarm signal either on line 84 or 85 indicating respective moderate and high probabilities of a rub condition. The moderate level probability signal may be provided if the anti-coincidence circuit 74 provides a predetermined number of output signals in a certain time period, whereas the high probability signal would be provided if the analyzer 82 additionally provides an output signal indicative of the rotor synchronous condition.
FIG. 5 is similar to the arrangement of Figure 3. However, rather than a contact 68 which touches the rotating shaft, the arrangement of FIG. 5 includes a capacitive pick-up 90 which is a non-contacting sensing means and which will automatically provide a pulse input to anti-coincidence circuit upon rotor discharge, thereby eliminating the need for a differentiator.
The glaze build-up is less severe with the grounding strap arrangement of FIG. 2B, however, the problem of a possible rub is still present. The apparatus of FIG. 6 will provide a rub indication for a ground strap arrangement wherein the grounding is modified by the inclusion of diodes 100 to 103 each having a known forward bias voltage Vb which, if exceeded, will cause the diode to conduct. The diode arrangement ensures that the rotor voltage will not exceed Vb, considered non-damaging to the oil film.
The rotor voltage signal is fed to a comparator 106 which has, as a second input, a reference voltage Vref of a value less than Vb and which is provided by a voltage source 108. Whenever the rotor voltage equals Vref, comparator 106 will provide an output signal to cause the rotor to discharge to ground. In one embodiment, this may be accomplished with the inclusion of a transistor 110 which has its emitter connected to ground, and its collector electrically connected to grounding strap 62 such that when comparator 106 provides an output signal to the base of transistor 110, the transistor will conduct and afford a grounding path for the rotor voltage.
Assuming a relatively uniform source of charge imparted to the rotor, the collector voltage of transistor 110 will be essentially a sawtooth waveform with the peak value of Vref and with a uniform frequency. If a rub occurs, then the rotor output voltage will be reset to ground before attaining a value of Vref, thus causing a premature resetting and a modification of the sawtooth waveform. This rub indicative premature resetting is sensed such as by a missing pulse detector 112, any output signal of which may be provided to an alarm circuit or circuits 114 for necessary action. FIGS. 7A and 7B further illustrate the operation.
In FIG. 7A, voltage level Vb represents the diode forward bias level and voltage level Vref represents the lower valued reference voltage. Waveform 120 represents the collector voltage of transistor 110 and is essentially a sawtooth waveform which increases in value until level Vref is attained at which point the comparator 106 turns on the transistor 110 to cause a rotor discharge. In response to this rapid transition from Vref back to zero, the missing pulse detector 112 will internally generate a pulse, as illustrated by waveform 7B, if the discharge goes, for example, from at least 90% of Vref to zero.
FIG. 7B illustrates three pulses 122 to 124 caused by three successive rotor discharges. After the third discharge, it is assumed that a rub occurs such that the sawtooth waveform as indicated by numeral 126 is prematurely reset and will not cause a corresponding pulse to be produced by the missing pulse detector 112. The next three successive discharges will provide corresponding pulses 128 to 130 after which the premature resetting condition will repeat. The missing pulse detector 112 is operable to sense that the period between pulses 124 and 128 is longer than the period between the previous three pulses thereby indicating a premature reset and a rub condition.
With the embodiments of the invention thus far described, it is assumed that the rotor is turning under conditions which would cause the static charge build-up. Such may not be the case when the turbine is initially on turning gear or during start-up when the static charge may be insufficient or non-existent. In order to be able to detect a rub during these start-up conditions, the apparatus includes means for imparting a simulated rotor charge. This is accomplished with the provision of a battery 134 in conjunction with a high resistance 135 which provides a source of charge to one input of comparator 106 when switch 136 is closed. The switch may be subsequently opened when operating conditions are such that the rotor attains a detectable charge potential. The battery, resistor and switch arrangement may also be provided for the embodiment of the invention illustrated in FIG. 3. The embodiment of FIG. 5, however, includes a capacitive pick-up 90 and does not lend itself to the addition of a current source for start-up conditions. Accordingly, an arrangement such as illustrated in Figure 8 may be utilized.
In FIG. 8, grounding brushes 54 and 55 are connected to ground via back-to-back diodes 140 and 141 providing a Vb bias with respect to ground. An AC voltage is imposed upon the rotor 22 by means of an oscillator 142 and capacitive coupling 143, with the peak AC voltage of the oscillator being equal to or less than Vb. A capacitive pick-up 146 produces an output voltage across a resistor 147 with the voltage being detected by some utilization means 150 such as an alarm. If a rub should occur in the system, the output voltage across resistor 147 will decrease, and if the decrease exceeds a predetermined threshold, an alarm will be given.
FIG. 9 illustrates, to a good approximation, the equivalent circuit for the arrangement of FIG. 8. The capacitive coupling 143 is represented by capacitor C1 while the capacitive pick-up 146 is represented by capacitor C2. Capacitor CR represents the capacitance between the rotor and ground. The capacitive voltage divider thus presented will produce some output voltage level across resistor 147. If a rub should occur, the equivalent condition may be represented by resistance R which is connected to ground by closing switch 152. The path afforded to ground by resistor R thereby will decrease the voltage across resistance 147 such that the amplitude change, as well as any phase change, will be detected.
Although FIG. 8 illustrates the capacitive coupling and capacitive pick-up in conjunction with grounding brushes, the arrangement may also be used with a grounding strap suitably elevated from ground by means of diodes, such as was illustrated in FIG. 6.

"Militare Tattoo Canada"
"This hotel has easy access to the Tattoo in Hamilton. Staff was very helpful from the front desk to the breakfast room. Very quiet even with several little league baseball teams staying the same weekend."
7 out of 10 | Harvey stayed November 24, 2011
"May not be a palace but the people there are the greatest staff"
"It needs a little more TLC but it's coming along. It may not be the freshest hotel but the front desk people are the greatest which is why I would go back and tell others to go there as well."
7 out of 10 | Verified Guest stayed April 27, 2011
"Everything was very good EXCEPT the smell of stale smoke in the non-smoking room. Fortunately the windows opened and that was helpful."
9 out of 10 | Michael stayed June 29, 2005
"Our stay at the Best Western was comfortable and would have been even more comfortable for our first evening if our special request for extra pillows had been looked after. We had initially requested 2 extra pillows when we registered on line and it was overlooked. We did ask for them for our second evening. If the opportunity arises again to return, we will certainly stay with Best Western. Thank you, The Reeves"

". we were only disappointed that what they sold us as a suite wasn't nearly that. Just because it has a sofa couch doesn't make it a suite. We paid the extra but won't again. We didn't have time to argue. Otherwise everything was new and clean . Staff was great. Breakfast was nice."

56 Examples of Formative AssessmentMore Related Discussions
Hi all,
I've created a presentation (with some help from my colleagues) on different examples of formative assessment. You can view it here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/pub?id=1nzhdnyMQmio5lNT75ITB45rHyLI...
Note the definition I'm using at the beginning of the presentation: A formative assessment or assignment is a tool teachers use to give feedback to students and/or guide their instruction. It is not included in a student grade, nor should it be used to judge a teacher's performance. Both of these would be considered summative assessments.

Some of the Traylors of Montgomery County, Illinois, are related to Daniel Boone in a roundabout way. John Jacob Traylor's wife, Turza (Theresa) Jane Blair was the great-great-great granddaughter of Edward Morgan, who was the maternal grandfather of Daniel Boone.
The Morgan-Boone descent goes like this: Edward Morgan was the father of Sarah Morgan, who was the mother of Daniel Boone.
The Morgan-Blair-Traylor line goes like this: Edward Morgan was the father of John Morgan, who was the father of Sarah Morgan (niece of Daniel Boone's mother), who was the mother of Colbert Blair II, who was the father of John Blair, who was the father of Turza Jane Blair, who married John Jacob Traylor.
John Jacob Traylor (1811-1866) was the son of James Traylor, b. Chesterfield County, Virginia in 1784 and d. Montgomery County, Illinois in 1852.
There may be other Boone connections, but I am not aware of them.

Global Insights: Afghanistan's Transition Meltdown?
The International Crisis Group (ICG) issued a report yesterday titled, "Afghanistan: The Long, Hard Road to the 2014 Transition." Although the report focuses on the political problems that Afghanistan faces, the country's security, economic and diplomatic challenges are perhaps even more serious.
According to the ICG, "Afghanistan is hurtling toward a devastating political crisis as the government prepares to take full control of security in 2014." The group's senior Afghanistan analyst, Candace Rondeaux, details how the Afghanistan National Security Forces (ANSF) are "overwhelmed and underprepared for the transition," even as Afghan President Hamid Karzai "seems more interested in perpetuating his own power by any means rather than ensuring credibility of the political system and long-term stability." ...

Nice location and nothing else to like
The hotel has not been updated in last 70 years -- this is likely a single star hotel (not sure why they are still showing 4 stars). the place is not clean, low value for money, has only one staff member for everything, the breakfast was one of the worst i have eaten in my life, a complete dead hotel -- should be demolished and new built.
The hotel was run by people who were very committed, helpful and caring. The décor is in keeping with the environment. The room was comfortable and reasonably quiet.
No problems.
I got the room for $75/night from the usual $150-200 since it was Monday during the low season. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from the train station and right by the Lake of Love. All major attractions are within an easy 10 minute walk.
The wi-fi is terrible. I constantly had one bar (instead of 4) on my iPhone, which made everything extremely slow and unstable. Major frustration.
*Excellent* location. Very close to the train station and to the center of the city, but insulated from craziness off a lovely little street leading into a beautiful park. Really a wonderful area.
I know this is relatively typical for a European hotel, but the room was tiny. The bed was so narrow I had flashbacks to college. Wonderful bathtub, good thick quiet walls, but just a tiny little room. It's a great place to stay, but I have trouble reconciling $136 with the lack of space in that room.
The garden was lovely and staff were outstanding thanks for a lovely stay.
Not really thought breakfast was expensive so we would go find a cafe
Everything. staff, Breakfast was outstanding, Room was super sized (at least the one we were in) Would stay there again in a heartbeat.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us
Please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.
