Public policy concerns the ideas and actions that government (at all levels) and the public sector more broadly undertakes. The actions are attempts to improve an aspect of public life. These actions take various forms and are undertaken by various government bodies and agencies. Such actions vary from passing or repealing a law, cutting or investing in a particular service, to less tangible actions such as calling for people to act in a certain way. Public policy involves consideration of a myriad of factors. These can include the impact on the economy, on individual behaviour, on equity, and on the law. Consideration is often made to the potential un/popularity of the policy. This is not only important for politicians but also the policy's successful implementation by public servants. New policies also try to change a particular issue ideologically close to those implementing it. For example, a trade off may be made so the health budget receives increased funding whilst the defence budget is cut. Public policy has increasingly become evidenced based. With greater scrutiny and large sums of money involved, policy decisions have to be able to withstand close examination. In many cases government has chosen to scrutinise and evaluate a proposed policy by running a pilot scheme. Given the drive for efficiency and accountability public funded bodies and services have increasingly had to provide statistics on productivity and effectiveness. This complex dynamic between ideology, vested interests, electoral popularity and effectiveness impacts on every decision taken
The importance of public policy has increased as democracy and the state have expanded. Over recent years, the UK government's expenditure has been around 40% of GDP (peaking during recessions and national crises before subsiding – at its highest it reached 61% in 1942 to 1944). As the public has demanded more action the state has played an ever larger role in attempting to cure societal ills. Not only has the state increased in size since the turn of the twentieth century but expectations have become greater. In recent years public services have come under pressure to deliver greater choice and freedom to citizens who have experienced higher standards of living and who are no longer willing to accept 'one-size fits-all' provision. This has meant greater efficiency savings and smarter public policy to deliver the kinds of services people expect. The complexities of public service delivery are only one aspect of the policy debate. With the importance of policy to the economy, business has looked to government to provide the right environment for growth so that they can compete with international firms. Such policy implications include government policy on education, health, rates of tax, labour flexibility, immigration and regulation to name but a few. Policy is also important for those campaigning on issues around poverty, international development, civil liberties, life chances and the environment. With so many different interests and such high expectations the importance of policy has never been greater or, indeed, more complex.
Given the complexities of public policy formulation and implementation, government (and public agencies) have increasingly looked to independent research organisations to inform and improve their accountability, decision making and management. Research think tanks fill the gap between academia and the political world. By giving a platform to new thinking they offer government alternative approaches to policy formulation. They not only offer new approaches but actively try to influence decision making by engaging politicians. In parallel to this, public policy think tanks use the media to apply pressure on government and the opposition to support a particular proposal. These proposals for improved policy come out of research undertaken and events held. Research can vary in form. Often reports are drafted by individual researchers but publications can also consist of edited chapters on a particular theme or a report based on deliberation from an esteemed group of panellists. Effective research is evidenced based rather than purely ideological. Given the complexity of policy making, substantive evidence has to be in place to back up any recommendations. Publications are not only written by researchers, but can also be penned by academics, opinions formers, chief executives, decision makers, trade unionists, leaders from the third sector, civil servants, politicians, and journalists. In addition to research, events are held to debate and discuss issues. These can come in the form of roundtable discussions, seminars, conferences and lectures. By discussing issues with stakeholders it is hoped that a more rounded and nuanced approached to a policy can be found.
The number of nonpartisan think tanks has increased with the professionalisation of politics and growth of single issue campaigns. Most are not-for-profit organisations, independent, nonpartisan and free from government. They rely on grants, donations and contracts for funding. By being independent views and recommendations are more likely to be trusted. Independence is also important in engaging stakeholders. An open forum allows freedom to express new ideas and approaches to policy free of party dogma and politicking. Nonpartisan political think tanks offer new insights and thought leadership on public policy issues. Although think tank research is evidence based and independent there is often ideological bias in what is produced. In the world of policy and politics more broadly nothing can be said to be ideologically neutral. With so many influences, interests and beliefs policy cannot be value free. In reality policy has some normative foundation from which choices and trade offs are made. Research think tanks in the UK tend to have some form of political motivation. Broadly speaking they are either progressive or conservative so come at policy from a particular angle. Whilst this is true of some others look at a single policy areas such as the King's Fund on health, the Institute for Fiscal Studies on economic analysis, and Chatham House on foreign affairs. Regardless of their particular agenda almost all are nonpartisan, with exceptions including the Fabian Society which is affiliated to the Labour Party or the Bow Group which has links with the Conservative Party.
Progressive think tanks, like the Smith Institute, focus their work on issues around social justice, sustainability, equality and fairness. Progressive polices have traditionally looked at how we counter social exclusion to create a fairer more equal society. Progressives believe that by harnessing and shaping the power of the market the interests of the many can be best served. At the heart of progressive thought is the idea that individuals are social beings, and that through mutual endeavour social and economic problems can be overcome. Thus there is emphasis on collaboration rather than just individual action. Given the importance of cooperation issues around democracy and empowerment are stressed. There is also the belief that by being fairer society will also be more prosperous. By having fair provision of social goods the work force will be educated and healthy which will benefit the economy. A fairer society is not only good for the economy but also the individual whose capabilities can best be realised and sense of wellbeing increased. Progressives also stress the importance of sustainability and international development. Not only are these economic necessities they are moral issues as they allow opportunity to be extended to others – be it those in developing nations or to future generations. Modern centre-left thought is not merely about resource distribution but also about shaping institutions, policies and behaviour for the benefit of all. These norms shape the perspectives that progressive research takes. As such research often looks at issues such as health or education through the lens of social justice or equality
The Smith Institute is a leading nonpartisan public policy think tank which promotes progressive policies for a fairer society. We provide a high-level forum for new thinking and debate on public policy and politics. Through our research, reports, briefings, monographs, events, lectures, education, and our website, the Institute offers a platform for thought leadership on a wide range of topics. We are interested not only in innovation and new ideas but also in how to translate policy into practice. Founded in 1996 in memory of the late Rt. Hon. John Smith MP, the former leader of the Labour Party who had an all pervading passion for social justice, the Institute seeks to engage politicians, decision makers, practitioners, academia, opinion formers and commentators. The Institute's activities are informed by a network of well known experts, policy makers, research fellows and patrons. Based in London, the Institute is a not for profit organisation which works in partnership with a range of public and private organisations, other nonpartisan political think tanks, foundations and charities. The Smith Institute has an excellent track record in influencing and shaping public policy, and extensive national and international contacts. Over the last decade we have held over 500 events and published more than 150 reports, with contributions from Prime Ministers and MPs to archbishops and chief executives. The Institute's work strands include: economy and finance; government and politics; sustainability; business and third sector; local government, cities and regions; housing and regeneration; education and families; health and wellbeing; and EU and international.

The people at the party who like bland food liked these. We dipped them in onion blossom dip. Those who prefer more developed tastes had the bacon wrapped water chestnuts I baked besides these. Still, I have made them now several times because people like them a lot! TIPS: 1) Do not pre-bake the tots. All I did is wrap them with the bacon and put in the fridge. When I could stick a toothpick through them, I was did so. 2) Make sure to turn them over 1/2 way through cooking. 3) Make sure the bacon is wrapped all the way around the tot (not center cut bacon, unless you use the whole piece) or the tot may fall apart. 4) I do not add the cheese...seems too messy for me! 5) Experiment with different flavors of bacon - they are all fun! 6) I line the cookie sheet with aluminum foil. 7) I bake these at a higher temp (400 - 450, depending on how hot your oven gets) so the bacon crisps. 8) Make sure to leave adequate space when baking any bacon wrapped appetizer. If you put them too close together, they will steam, and the bacon will not get crispy!
This is an old one! I used to make these back in the 80's and everyone loved them. Very good with a spicy honey mustard sauce for dipping.
These were really good! A little involved to make, but good! BUT, don't leave them in near as long as it says. The cheese completely melted and burned away. You probably only need to leave them in for 15 - 20 minutes because the tater tots and bacon are already pre-cooked a bit. Leaving them in for 30 minutes was just way too long for the cheese!

Amazing, must have lip balm!
This product arrived in my monthly inner circle box and I was ecstatic to see it in there as I've been wanting to try more products from this brand. There is a slightly minty taste/feeling after applying but it is not overpowering. The lip balm is very moisturizing on my lips but not too slippery and the color "nude" is quite sheer and just barely tones down the natural pigmentation of my lips, making it the perfect lip product for a "no makeup" makeup look! Cannot wait to try more colors.
By Lindsay on February 18, 2014
Excellent tinted lip balm
This product is a great mix of lip balm with a hint of color. Not much, but just enough to tell your lips are not bare. It's very moisturizing and leaves the perfect amount of shine. I agree with the other reviews -if you're looking for something that's highly pigmented this is not your product. But if you just want the barest hint of natural looking color, this is it.
By Olga on May 7, 2014
Moisture intense :)
This is a great product, however, I am a bit picky when it comes to lip balms with colors. I think it is extremly moistureizing, pretty color, I picked the cherry (more on the red side than expected), overall great product, especially when comparing to other alternatives. My only negative is that it smudges a bit, and I find myself constantly reapplying, however, I would still recommend it. Ordered mocha color and looking forward to that shade.
By Michele on February 19, 2014
long lasting, minty with a satin sheen
I received the nude color in my Saffron Rouge Inner Circle bag. It is a lovely balm, slightly minty and has a nice satin sheen. Very moisturizing. There is no real tint to the nude color, but that is why it is called nude! This is now my go-to lip balm during these harsh winter months in the northeast!

This is the true story of a young teacher, Erin Gruwell, and diary entries from her "unteachable" students in Wilson High School in Long Beach, California. When she found a cartoon of a big lipped boy being passed around her classroom, in her rage she told her class that this stereotyping is how the Holocaust got started. When she realized that none of her students had heard of the Holocaust, she assigned the kids The Diary Of Ann Frank, and thus began her program of writing for tolerance and change, rather than violence and ignorance.
This book includes the anonymous entries, for the safety of her students, of the diary writings of her students telling of their personal issues and problems around violence, racism, gang "ethics", drugs, alcoholism, spouse abuse, child sexual abuse, and one parent families, etc. Various activities, visits to famous places, corporate help, and determined hard work changed these kids from failures and hoodlums, into productive kids pursuing college educations and "legal" careers.
Great read for educators, parents, and children who may see the connection of their problem lives to these children. The focus is for hard work, determination, courage, hope, and understanding of the humanity of all kinds of people through sharing ideas in writing rather than violence. Excellent book---good for thought for everyone!!

November 24, 2014
GALLIA COUNTY, Ohio (WSAZ) --Investigators with the Gallia County Sheriff's Office and Ohio BCI are investigating a shooting that happened early Saturday morning.
Sheriff Joe Browning says 22-year-old Justin Saunders was found shot inside a relative's car near Route 7 and Braden Road about 6:30 a.m.
Browning says it was owner of the car who found Saunders. The Sheriff says the car was locked and the gun was in the car.
At this time, the Sheriff believes the shooting was most likely self-inflicted.
Browning does say that Saunders had an on-going dispute with another man and his family who lived close-by, so investigators are looking into all possibilities.
Saunders is being treated at a Huntington hospital.

Rejuvenating facials at Long Island spas
After a loooong, cold winter, it's the right time for a refresher course -- we're talking about your face. Skin gets dull, congested and D-R-Y during the colder months, and a facial is a wonderful rejuvenator.
But there's a lot going on in the world of skin care, and it seems that the days of the very basic facial are virtually extinct. So to learn about some variations on the theme, we went under the steam, the stone, the cream and, eeks, even the razor. And besides the relaxing, pampering experience (some more relaxing and pampering than others), the greatest benefit of all is beautiful, healthy skin.

UFC 117 Behind The Hype, The REAL Chael Sonnen
Updated: August 4, 2010
Chael Sonnen has not stopped running his mouth about Anderson Silva since the Spider lacklusterly defeated Demian Maia at UFC 112. Who is the real Chael Sonnen? Is he a fighter capable of doing what many tough fighters have failed at, defeating Anderson Silva or just a fighter who's mouth is bigger then his fight gloves.

I know some of you are still going for sonnen just like you did for Forrest. Sonnen is like a washed up Matt hughes
If he does not win, it will be such a blow to talking trash, and of course make him out to be pathetic

DISPLAY DESTRUCTION D'OH! Teardown cracks Surface Pro 3 screen
I dropped my Nexus 7, once, without a case on it, and the back cover popped off.
I was worried, at the time, but feel pretty smug about it, now!
Re: Planned obsolescence
At least you can take a car to an independant garage and have it serviced for a reasonable fee, rather than being restricted to taking it back to the dealer, once the warranty expires. I doubt they'll be very many unauthorised service agents capable of repairing your Surface outside of the warranty period.
Microsoft ups OneDrive storage, slashes prices to match Google Drive
Re: Watch the lawsuites fly...
I've never really understood the animosity toward drive letters. I've had Linux in regular use for a couple of years, now, but the Windows method still seems preferable. Can anyone enlighten me on the benefits? Documentation that I've read described the Linux method as "more robust" but I've yet to notice any benefit (after getting my file storage drive to mount automatically in Mint, I had to correct the links to it under XBMC, which was a less than slick experience).
Re: Microsoft silently tried to shove OneDrive on my PC
Surely only a matter of time before OneDrive becomes the new IE, and the EU slap them down for anti-competitive behaviour?
San Francisco issues SMACKDOWN on parking spot sale software
Re: Explain please!
I'm confused, too. If it's an allocated, on the road space, that only you can park in, then offering your permit to others for the times when you're out isn't a bad idea. If it's just uncontrolled space on the highway that you happen to be parked in, then you've absolutely no business selling it on.
Mozilla dev dangles Chromecast clone dongle
Re: Strange description of Chromecast
Quite agree, joe. I still think the Chromecast is most likely to have more of the big services on it, though (experience of the 4oD client on Raspbmc - constantly being re-written as its feed gets cut off - bears this out). An "open" option for the more technically minded/curious is always welcome, however.
Re: Strange description of Chromecast
Browsing Netflix's catalogue on a tablet, before flinging it to the TV must be better than navigating the catalogue on the TV, using the telly remote.
I imagine that the Chromecast has a good chance of having more services ported to it, too, unlike your "smart" TV, which is probably not going to get anything useful that it doesn't already have (no 4oD, itvPlayer, or demand5 on my Panasonic, for example, all of which exist as Android apps, and so will more than likely get the necessary development to run on the Chromecast).

Microsoft hopes for FONDLESLAB FRENZY as Surface Pro 3 debuts
Re: proceeded to review their samples based on their normal laptop usage
If a laptop were being advertised as a "desktop replacement", I think reviewers would be perfectly justified in comparing it to an equivalent desktop - if it had a smaller screen and a lack of ports, these would be legitimate criticisms.
If MS are touting this Surface as a "laptop replacement", surely it's reasonable to see how it performs it that role?
If Google remembers whom it has forgotten, has it complied with the ECJ judgment?
Re: This whole thing is idiotic
If you got busted as a teenager for nicking booze, is it too much to ask that a) you've grown up since then and don't do that anymore, and b) we all be grown up enough to recognise that teenagers get up to all sorts of stupid shit and that we shouldn't let it define them?
If something really happended, and there was a record of that event, why would it need to be deleted? If it's slander/libel, then there are already laws to handle that.
I think I approve of the way Google is handling this one.

Hate phone games that make you buy in-app gumble? Congrats, you're a niche player
Re: Unmitigated Bullshit
At least with Duke Nukem, Doom, et al., you played the shareware episode, decided whether or not you liked it, then paid for the rest of the game.
If it'd been a case of getting the first episode for free, having the option to free up space on the screen (remove ads), then needing to pay seperately for each new gun you picked up, having to pay to unlock the subsequent levels, and having to pony up some cash every time you died (or wait 24hrs for your health to regen), I doubt it'd have been half so popular.
There's precious few mobile games that I've actually spent money on.
Think I've chucked about £1.40 at the makers of Cut The Rope, £0.70 for Sprinkle Jr., but that's about it. In-app purchases just strike me as a rip off - if the game is good, I would buy it, but the App-Stores seem to function on quantity over quality, so I just assume that everything will be shit* and play the free versions, chucking them once I reach the point where I need to pay to progress.
*Experience shows this to generally be the case, most mobile games are either outright dire, or get very dull, very quickly. Plenty of money being made, though, so someone must be hurling their cash at this crap.

There's plenty of content on CBBC that manages to bridge the parent/child gap.
"Horrible Histories", Help, I've Got No Head!", "Strange Hill High" and "Shaun The Sheep" all come to mind (less so on CBeebies*). Reimagining (blech!) a series from the parents' era won't do this, it'll have the opposite effect.
Bet it'll be CGI, too.

Microsoft throws Kinect under a bus, slashes Xbox One to $399
re: "space"
Very much this. We had an Eye Toy on the PS2, which worked out little more than a brief novelty, as standing up and flailing your arms to play video games is not really very much fun (and it didn't work too well). The Wii controller works (reasonably) well, but experience has shown that sitting down and not having to point the controller at the screen is the preferred mode of play - anything that involves multiple players standing up to play together will inevitable get switched off after a couple of rounds (during which at least one person will have taken an elbow to the face).
I'm sure Kinect is technically very accomplished, but I don't think it's what people want in their living rooms (or bedrooms).

In general lamp was bigger than I needed, but color and finish and lampshade were not as shown and not good quality. Shade was dark beige and square. Lamp base components were a bit loose and pivoting around the stem.
This is a beautiful lamp. It looks so much more expensive than it actually was. The lamp is substantial and has a great color. The lamp shade is gorgeous blue in beautiful silk. The only thing I don't like is that it doesn't come with a lamp kit, so I will have to go buy one. Otherwise, definitely worth the money. I am thinking about buying a second one to have a matching set.

Writing on his blog "Syria Comment," Joshua Landis contends that "Iraq is seeing
much more spillover from Syria than Lebanon." His premise is that "already in
response to the growing civil war in Syria, Iraqi violence has spiked and
al-Qaida is resurgent there."However, I contend that Landis is wrong on
several counts. Beginning with his premise, the notion that "Iraqi violence has
spiked" is based on a short term overview of trends of violence in Iraq, without
looking at the bigger picture. Indeed, this issue is a common fault when it
comes to media reporting on statistics of violence and civilian
casualties.For example, at the end of September, outlets like Reuters
reported that Iraq had seen its bloodiest month for more than two years, citing
a figure of 365 killed, supposedly double the toll from the previous
month.However, as Joel Wing of "Musings on Iraq" quickly noticed, the
media reports were simply basing themselves on government statistics, which have
consistently understated casualties to a large degree.After all, the
leading "State of Law" coalition in government under the premier Nouri Maliki
emphasizes security for Iraqis as a key part of its political
platform.An examination of the database of the Iraq Body Count (IBC),
which compiles figures based on extensive corroboration of media sources in
Arabic and English, will show that, in comparison with the preceding summer
months, September has hardly been out of the ordinary.As of the time of
writing, the IBC records 372 violent deaths for September, while June, July and
August have 505, 419 and 398 fatalities respectively.These figures
contrast strongly with the spring season, during which March, April and May
witnessed 347, 330 and 231 violent deaths respectively.The point is that
these figures are part of the regular patterns in violence that have emerged
since the end of the sectarian civil war: that is, violence picks up in the
build-up to and throughout the summer, as insurgents step up their
operations.If anything, the development of the Syrian civil war should
lead to the opposite of what Landis suggests: namely, a reduction in violence,
since it is apparent that many Sunni and Shi'a militants from Iraq have been
heading into Syria to aid the rebels or the Assad regime,
respectively.By attempting to draw a link with the Syrian civil war,
Landis overlooks the real problem of the growing sophistication of Iraqi
insurgent tactics. Indeed, analysts such as Hayder Khoei and Prashant Rao have
noted the increasing use of advanced technology among the insurgents, and their
improved ability to disguise themselves as members of the Iraqi security
forces.This problem can in fact be tied to the US withdrawal, though it
was not an inevitable consequence of the American pullout, but rather the result
of poor decision-making on the part of the Iraqi government.As Michael
Knights pointed out in an interview with Joel Wing, after the US withdrawal the
Iraqi government decided to release some detainees who had been held by the
Americans. Part of the reason for doing this was undoubtedly an assumption that
now there was no longer an occupying foreign force on Iraqi soil, these
detainees would return to normal lives, perhaps also realizing that they could
not overthrow the government.Yet the assumption proved to be mistaken.
Rather than reintegrating, a large number of them simply rejoined insurgent
groups like al-Qaida in Iraq (AQI).Driven by ideology, they had simply
bided their time while imprisoned, thinking about how to launch more
sophisticated attacks and becoming familiar with the operations of the Iraqi
security forces.The result, as Knights puts it, is that "AQI has
benefited from an unprecedented infusion of trained terrorist manpower." This
therefore, and not the Syrian civil war, explains the claims of Iraqi and US
officials that AQI has bolstered its manpower with training camps in
Anbar.What of the future? It is certainly true that many Sunni Arabs in
Iraq feel that their position will be strengthened if a Sunni-dominated
government replaces the Assad regime. Nonetheless, it is first important to note
that said Sunnis have not said they are intending to return to an armed
insurgency campaign against the Iraqi government.Second, given the
severe damage to infrastructure in Syria caused by the civil war, as well as
problems of demography, internal displacement owing to climate change, dwindling
oil resources, and the presence of hardline jihadist factions that are at strong
odds ideologically with other rebel factions (among other things), a Syrian
government that succeeds Assad is likely to be extremely weak and far more
preoccupied with its own domestic problems – including a dangerous insurgency –
than supporting and empowering Sunni brethren in Iraq.Third, even if the
Syrian government did have time and energy to focus on asserting the position of
Sunnis in Iraq, there is no reason to think that a post- Assad Damascus would do
so with armed support for insurgents who have already attained a high degree of
unpopularity, among all Iraqi communities, for their brutality.On the
contrary, given Syria's trade ties with Iraq, a post-Assad regime would be much
more likely to try to take on a role as mediator and advisor in Iraqi politics,
similar to the way Iran tries to assert itself among the Shi'a
factions.Finally, Landis' own view of how Iraqi politics works is simply
based too much on an ethno-sectarian paradigm. He overlooks how the main issue
in the country today is not a Sunni-Shi'ite crisis, but the monopolization of
power under Nouri Maliki, who has built up a support base of many Sunnis in both
the judiciary and the armed forces.Indeed, being Shi'ite is no guarantee
of securing the friendship of the premier, as illustrated by the fact that he
recently went after the Shi'ite head of the Central Bank Sinan Shabibi. This
move was not supported outside Maliki's own state of law coalition, widely
perceived as a unilateral attempt on the premier's part to accumulate greater
control of government.In short, Landis is greatly exaggerating the
threat of civil war spillover from Syria into Iraq. Iraq is a country with its
own political and security dynamics that need to be taken into account before
hastily assuming a link between the Syrian civil war and supposedly growing
destabilization in Iraq.Aymenn Jawad Al-Tamimi is a Shillman-Ginsburg

Paint Job costs?
Wanting to paint my jeep black. Anyone know how much this would cost approximately? It it now a lighter blue and looks like a girl jeep
Jeeps are "different" when it comes to paint jobs. They take a lot less material than most vehicles, but with all the painted metal showing on the inside you almost have to do a complete disassemble to paint it correct. I would recommend keeping the stock color and adding another so that you have a two tone, so that you'll avoid this issue. If someone brought a jeep to my shop and wanted a complete color change done right it would be between 3500-4500, and my prices are CHEAP
I am lucky because my int is tan and my factory paint about matches it. I'm painting the insides of my wheel wells black and painting everything under the hood black while I've got the motor out. When I actually paint the entire thing I'm going to pull the doors, hood, all hinges, and paint it all separate.
Price just depends on how "right" you want it....
I just paid $2400 to redo the black Rubicon. I delivered the Jeep striped of all parts such as bumpers, trim, skids, lights, top, interior, and etc... He added more clear then normal, sanded then rubbed out the paint to a perfect flat coat. No orange peel and enough clear to rub out and scratches added from the trail.
two tone question
how much would you say a two tone costs? my jeep is currently silver and i was looking to paint it yellow but since i saw the costs from the earlier posts, and that is way to much for me. I think it would still work if i had a color fading into the silver, any estimates?

Historical Traveler Reviews Kings Hotel Brighton
Should have stayed at the Thistle!
Stayed at the King's Hotel 3-6 December. Was quite worried after booking and then reading the reviews on this site. Initial appearance from outside of hotel it does need modernisation. I know most of the hotels in brighton are quite old but they are looked after apart from this one. Once inside reception, there was a horrible strong smell of gone off aftershave, lift is dodgy, carpet is stained in some places and wallpaper tatty in some places. Once in room, things don't get any better with decoration although the bed is one of the most comfortable I have slept in, bathroom needs updating. Breakfast was just about edible, toaster very dodgy if you can get it to work. don't have a problem with doing my own toast (have done that in a top hotel in this country). Staff seemed more interested in gossiping to each other at some points whilst people queued to give room number to sit down and have breakfast. Hated the black shirts and trousers they wore with the red tie!!! �105 per night for a hotel room with sea view is reasonable - provided it isn't at the Kings Hotel!
By the sea, stain on carpet
Well this 3* hotel is on the seafront in Brighton and is within easy walking distance of public transport and town centre. The room was comfortable, the breakfast good and plenty of hot water available. However, while the staff were efficient, they were not very friendly (there was a note in the window advertising vacancies). Past the reception and very comfortable bar (green leather sofas) the decor is VERY shabby. Carpets, walls, stairs, doors, lift, bathroom, everything was pretty horrible. Also, a trait I have noticed becoming more and more common in hotels, a liquid soap dispenser (Dove) and a shower-gel dispenser (Lux) attached to the wall in the bathroom. Also toilet roll-holder broken - petty I know, but made it look scruffy. If you are taking someone for a romantic trip away, I think they would consider you a bit of a cheapskate if you took them here - peeling wallpaper and a very unpleasant looking stain on the carpet. TV worked though.
Rooms were a furnace
On arrival the reception was quite poor, on going to the rooms the hotel and rooms were very hot. They were so hot that in middle of night had to hire a fan at an additional 20 deposit over th 120 I had already paid. The night manager was churlish and when I left the hotel staff could not find the deposit I had paid and it took about three quarters of an hour to get 20 back.
Very bad value
Stayed at this hotel thankfully only for 1 night. Payed �120 for a box room, which was boiling hot and had pigeons keeping us awake all night, which would explain the state of the window sill. Breakfast was inedible, you have to make your own toast! And they charge non residents �12 for the priviledge. Give it a miss and go to one of the more luxurious hotels for the same price. As soulless as a Travel Inn!
Could give Fawlty Towers a run for your money
We should have realised from the cold and churlish reception at check-in that this hotel was a farce only capable of decending into a comedy. Decided to spend all the evening out, but was careful to leave the small and crampped little double room in the morning in time to move the car before when we'd been warned the warden was due to arrive. Only to get trapped in the equally cramped lift for half an hour ! Yes really ! Ah well incidents will happen .. but to add insult to injury not only did we get a #60 ticket, but we had to ask for an appolgy from the staff. The best the asst. manager could do was take off a half of the room price only. Well I shall never return.
Lovely, highly recommended
What a lovely hotel! I booked a sea-facing double with four poster bed.
The room was big enough, with adjoining bathroom, and quite large wardrobe. The bed linen was white which made the room look very classy, and everything was immaculately clean. Fluffy towels. Beautiful view of the West Pier from the front windows. Room service menu is limited but very nice food, only about 8 choices I think. The continental brekkie tray was very nice, all the hot toast and croissants wrapped in napkins and lots of mini Baxters jams. Pebbles restaurant downstairs was really impressive, luxuriously decorated and with friendly helpful staff.
Yummy food too. The King's Hotel is very close to all the shops, just go straight up one of the side hills and you're in the main high street, Western Road. Keep walking east along the sea front and you're in the Lanes shopping area, and close to the Pier and Pavilion. Stay there!
great location, great food, great service, great rooms, great staff.
Thank you everyone at The Kings Hotel for a GREAT stay.
Cosy and comfortable
Me and my husband stayed over a weekend at the kings hotel.The hotel wasn't as big as some of the hotels on the front but i found it to be cosy and efficient.The staff were very pleasent and it was very good value for money.I will definitely be coming bak to this hotel.
Very pleasant stay
We stayed at the Kings over a weekend. We booked a sea-facing double, which to our delight had a 4 poster bed. All the staff seemed very friendly and efficient, and ready to go out of their way to help.
We treated ourselves to one of the packages available, and had kimono robes, slippers and Champagne waiting in the room for our arrival.
All in all we had a very romantic weekend that felt very special (we were celebrating our anniversary)!
We will definately come back!
Not What It Seems!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reception very pleasant, bar small but sufficient, we paid �110 for the pleasure of staying in a room that i think inmates at woomwoodscrubs would complain about. It was dark cramped and as far as the sea view goes if you can see through the dirt on the windows NICE!!!! do youself a favour look about........

Originally written on Bronx Pinstripes | Last updated 11/18/14
Andy Pettitte (7-7, 4.47 ERA) is on the mound in game three of the four in Arlington and takes on the new addition to the Rangers Matt Garza. The last seven starts have been frustrating for Pettitte, he has gone 2-4 with a 5.40 ERA, and opponents have hit .311 against him after a beautiful outing on June 8 at Seattle. Most troubling of all for Pettitte is that he feels completely healthy. Garza will make his Rangers debut having been acquired by the Cubs on Monday night, . The 29 year old righty dealt six consecutive quality starts before being dealt. He was 6-1 with a 3.17 ERA with the Cubs before the trade. The Yankees have had plenty of experience facing Matt Garza over the past seven seasons. They've had plenty of success against him, too. They are 11-1 in 12 games with 11 home runs and 38 runs scored in 66 1/3 innings against him. The Lack of Bombers will face Garza for the 13th time of his career tonight. But after talking to Garza, Ron Washington isn't worried about the Yankees' past success. "He was excited, big smile on his face," Washington said. "I think I sit here with just as big of a smile as he did. He's ready to go, man. I wouldn't expect anything less. When he was in Tampa Bay, you saw how he competes. He's a quality pitcher, and we're certainly looking for quality things out of him. The one thing I did tell him is, don't try to put us on his shoulders. Just be who he is; that'll be good enough for us." "It's been a few years, but we've seen a lot of him, and he's a pitcher that's had success pretty much anywhere he's been," Joe Girardi said. "He's pitched in the American League East, which is not the easiest place to pitch. He's pitched in pennant races. You would expect it to be a good acquisition for the Rangers." After battling a prolonged slump that lasted through May and June, Vernon Wells seems to have finally found his stride again in July. The outfielder is batting .326 with six RBIs in 46 at bats this month after hitting just .184 with 18 RBIs over his previous 179 at bats. "He seems to be back," Girardi said of Wells. "It's good to have him around. I've enjoyed having him on our team, and it's nice to have him swinging the bat well, too." Travis Hafner hasn't experienced the same turnaround, though. The designated hitter's batting average has dropped every month this season, and he's hitting only .151 in his last 31 games. Notes on the game. The Yankees, who lost 3-0, on Monday, are 6-2 in games played immediately following a shutout loss. Tuesday's lost marked the first game this season the Rangers had lost when leading after eight innings. They were previously 51-0. With three doubles and a triple on Tuesday, the Yankees snapped a 24-inning streak in which they had not recorded an extra base hit. Game kicks off at 8:05 PM (EST) on Yes
