Who is taking over for Seth @ Cosmos? [MSP]
- Foureyes137 Dec 28, 2006 07:45 PM
As I assume everyone knows by now, Seth Bixby's last day at Cosmos was December 14th.
Does anyone have the scoop on who might be interviewing for this covetable job at the Graves? Andrew Zimmern made a half-hearted speculation in Stewart Woodman in the above article, but after the less than...good meals I had at Five, I can't say that prospect sounds delightful.
we went to Cosmos on Seth's last day - only to find out he had left that afternoon, thus wasn't at the kitchen that evening (sigh). So we talked to Håkan, Seth's sous-chef and loyal right-hand (he cooked with Seth to the James Beard House dinner, etc) and to Adel (sommelier?) and they say that "the Graves will take their time to find someone worthy of filling Seth's spot - no one has been identified so far". I wasn't impressed with Steward Woodman either (but i never ate at the "fancy" side of Five), and he seems to be leaving some ruffled feathers where he works, so i'm not sure the Graves will trust him with the amount of events/ corporate partners/ etc that Cosmos hosts every week.
Any idea if Håkan is filling in the Exec spot for the time being? We have a large group of friends staying at the Graves next month for a bachelorette party and they have a rez @ Cosmos.
I trust Håkan to carry the torch and would not hesitate having them keep that reservation were that the case.
If you've dined @ Cosmos previously, there is about a 5% chance that Seth prepared your food, plus nobody's leaving, so keep your reservations. The Graves definitely want a chef with a big name & a national reputation who can help promote the place and move it beyond the HUGE shadow of Seth. They have a lot to offer as they are opening hotels in CHI & NYC within the next 2 years & the next Exec Chef will have a big hand in what they do there. If it was going to be Stuart Woodman, it would have happened by now...so I can only imagine that it's someone from another market, because the qualified big names here by-and-large own their own places. I wonder if that glamour-puss TV Star Zimmern could still find his knives!?!?!
Now that the cat's out of the bag...the word is that Stephen Trojahn (Club 21 in NYC, lotsa Ritz-Carltons) will be starting on Jan 8.
I have eaten at 21 twice and both times were first-rate. I am excited to see what he does.
I am more excited for the Bixby-Brown venture I am imagining in my head that will never happen in a million years.
Cosmos still is wonderful. And the graves also just added an ace pastry chef. Khanh Tran, formerly of Auriga, Levain, Hotel Fontainbleu in Miami & the Ritz Escoffier Hotel in Paris. They're like the New York Yankees of the Minneapolis restaurant scene.
The Yankees? yuck... i understand the analogy about bringing top players to their roster, but can we use a less polarizing team? =)
Trojahn seems like a great match, down to the big-hotel experience – it's definitely not a job for any chef, no matter how great they are.... it takes a certain personality.
Foureyes137, what's the "Bixby-Brown" venture in your dreams?
re: Foureyes137
Rumor is that Brown is checking out Mill City Cafe as an option for himself
re: ChefD
Damn! That's some rumor!
While I can't say I would be disappointed in the least to have him up here in Nordeast, I think Mill City Cafe has some of the same issues that Levain did in it's distance from downtown's population radius, expense accounts and lunch diners.
I'm actually quite conflicted here...I really enjoy Steven Brown's food. I loved it at Rockstar and Levain, but I am not sure he will be setup to succeed at Mill City. Perhaps he cooks there in the interim, but I want the casual fine-dining experience of the last two restaurants...a feeling I haven't gotten in my single Sunday morning visit to Mill City. Maybe I am way-off in my scepticisim, but I'm not sure I see a good fit.
But hey, it'll be one hell of a brunch!
re: Foureyes137
I can't imagine the price points @ Mill City are anywhere near what they were @ Levain...and trying to bring them up there would be deadly for their business in that location. What's worked in NE are price sensitive indie-boho joints like Sample Room, Modern, Erte.
re: g rote
My point precisely. Either the quality of the food would be compromised for the sake of bringing down the price or the prices would reach level's unsustainable in the market.
re: Foureyes137
Yeah, I don't know how serious it is. I just heard it was one of the places he briefly mentioned on Andrew Zimmerns show last Saturday
Do you really agree with that comment about being as "on par" with the best in Vegas, Chicago, or SF also who else agrees with it? I mean I like cosmos fine but i think that to put them on such a hi piller you need more. Lets all remember Guy Savoy and Joel Robuchon BOLTH have restaurants in Vegas. Not on par with the best but trying to get close. Plus we have no idea how the new chef is going to do. How soon we forget about chefs from out-state. I wish him the best of luck. Now that Levan has closed and Harvy wants to open another bistro we need someone to come in and do what Steven was doing there and we need to get Steven back behind the stove so we can all enjoy his food cause he is one of the best we have.
re: youngchef
I personally have not had the privilege to eat at any high scale places in Vegas, and very few in Chicago-NY. So I cannot comment if Cosmos is at par with "the best" in these cities. I do think Seth is a great chef, beyond the culinary knowledge and creativity – from his work with the hotel and events/ charities such as the Taste of the Nation/ SOS events, he has proven leadership. But when it comes to ranking him nationally... I'm not experienced enough for that.
re: youngchef
Now, Guy Savoy and Robuchon opened after I was last in Vegas, Sept 05. BUT...Cosmos was better than Nobhill, better than Fiamma. As good as Prime, Michael Mina, Bradley Ogden. I enjoyed Cosmos' ambience immensly as well, it is an escape.
Andrew Zimmern posted on his blog that he got a call from Ben Graves yesterday, confirming that Steven Trajahn is taking over. Khan Tran will be the pastry chef.
re: g rote
You're probably right - although the "stamp" will eventually come - news of a new chef always revive a place, as people "remember" the old spot and go see what's going on.

CunninLynguists - Running Wild
Artist: CunninLynguists
Producer: Kno
Album: Strange Journey Volume 2
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 14 votes )
Having apparently recovered from that batch of hyper-potent THC-laced brownies they consumed in their last feature, Never Come Down, Kno, Deacon the Villain and Natti of the CunninLynguists are back in the Booth with the lead single off their forthcoming Strange Journey Volume 2 LP. Though Running Wild's lyrical focus is on the ever-present issue of street crime, the track finds the Southern underground mainstays and their guest collaborators, Dilated Peoples emcee Evidence and Bay Area big-timer E-40, focused more on fire-spitting than social commentary – which is for the best, since tangents like 40 Water's "There'll never be an emcee like me till 5004" segue into "space pimpin'" account for some of the cut's most enjoyable moments. Backed by Kno's tense, cymbal-driven percussion and pounding piano chords, this underground banger should meet a warm reception among our resident lyrical heads. If you're digging Running Wild, why not accompany the 'Lynguists when they embark upon the latest phase of their Strange Journey? Vol. 2 is set to hit record stores and online retailers Nov. 3.

IDW Publishing has released their publishing plans for January 2015. Two floppies and one trade are available. The Abrams-verse comic starts (or continues? not really sure) the five year mission as the Enterprise and The City on the Edge of Forever comic gets the trade treatment. I don't really recommend buying but it is a fascinating look at how a script gets revised into one of the most beloved TV shows of all time. The core ideas are there but whoever took the editor's pen to Harlen's script back in the 60's did an amazing job of losing unnecessary beats and characters while focusing on the core concepts and story. The improvement is so dramatic that I would argue that whoever did the re-write probably deserves co-writer credit as I frankly found the "pure" Ellison version to be often silly, meandering, and boring.

After a two word tweet (since deleted) from William Shatner that said "I'm baaaaccckk!!!", multiple entertainment websites (those with paid reporters) have assumed that meant the actor is officially part of Star Trek 3. Which could be true. But those words do not comfirm it. They could mean a host of other things especially for someone as busy as Shatner who is constantly traveling and going to conventions. End result is it all remains rumor until either officially confirmed or the movie comes out (whichever is first). Until then the speculation is fun and what blogs like this live on. Still it is pretty bad when your average blogger does a better job highlighting an unconfirmed rumor than the mainstream media that has literally gone to school to know better.

io9.com has created their list of top 100 episodes of Star Trek. The list is all eras of the Trek TV series with Voyager getting a surprising showing in the list. Personally Deep Space Nine remains my favorite Trek of all time not so much because of the characters but because it was willing to stretch the boundaries of the Trek and work in the moral gray areas that the other shows mostly avoided. Below is their top 10, click here to review the entire list.

10) Mirror, Mirror (TOS)
9) All Good Things (TNG)
8) The Inner Light (TNG)
7) In The Pale Moonlight (DS9)

John Cho has finally said what I have suggested for years now - that after Star Trek 3, the franchise will probably have to be rebooted or recast again. In an interview to promote his new show Selfie (co-star is the stunningly gorgeous Karen Gillan), he talked about the possibility of the cast coming together after their three picture contracts end.
Zachary Quinto has said the Star Trek cast all signed up for three movies, so the next one is the end of the contract. Since those characters go on forever, do you really expect this to be the last one for your team, or for you as Sulu?
The reason I hesitate is just wondering if we could get everyone. It seems to be an all or nothing proposition. I want to say, for me, sure, let's do another. I enjoy that group. I enjoy what Star Trek films do in general and say in general. And I will say one of the pleasures of having been in Star Trek movies has been seeing what effect they have in society, like astronauts saying, "I kind of got into this line of work because my imagination was sparked from watching 'Star Trek.'" That is very cool. What I'm trying to say is, I just stand by that product. Getting a whole cast together, that's tough.
I understand, if one of the cast is unavailable, there's no point having most of you and recasting one role.
I would have to think about that. I guess you'd have to see when you got there, but I would like to keep it all together.

India 104 and 205 (Laxman 69, Tendulkar 55, Clarke 6-9) beat Australia 203 and 93 (Harbhajan 5-29, Kartik 3-32) by 13 runs
Scorecard and ball-by-ball details
Australia's mighty batting line-up capitulated for just 93 in the face of some magnificent bowling from Harbhajan Singh and Murali Kartik, as India pulled off a scarcely credible 13-run victory in the final Test at the Wankhede Stadium. Australia might have already won the series, but for an Indian team under the cosh since the third Test at Nagpur, it was a triumph to savour. Though the bowlers will get most of the plaudits, many of the hard yards had been done earlier in the day, with Sachin Tendulkar and VVS Laxman scripting superb half-centuries before Michael Clarke uncurled his golden arm.
But no-one could steal the limelight from Harbhajan. When Dravid recalled him into the attack, after Australia had crept to within 14 of the modest 107 they needed, he had Michael Kasprowicz caught at leg slip, and Glenn McGrath taken at slip to leave India victorious, and Jason Gillespie unconquered on an obdurate 9 that had spanned 51 balls.
Zaheer Khan, destined for nothing more than a supporting role on this dustbowl, had given India the perfect fillip when Australia started their pursuit, with Justin Langer edging one to Dravid at first slip. And after a quick flurry of fours from Ricky Ponting and Matthew Hayden, Dravid opted for spin at both ends, with Kartik taking over from Zaheer.
The impact was immediate. Ponting was caught by Laxman at second slip after the edge had initially gone on to Dinesh Karthik's thigh-pad, and Damien Martyn, Australia's most assured batsman in this series, lasted just five balls, trapped in front on the back foot by the last ball of the over (3 for 24).
That was the wobble. The quake started in earnest when Simon Katich aimed a drive at Harbhajan to give Dravid another scalp at slip. Hayden (24) was still a menace though, cutting Harbhajan for four and then miscuing one down to the fence at long-off. But when he attempted a sweep to one pitched outside leg, the ball trickled onto the stumps via glove and pad. Harbhajan celebrated, and Australia's hopes nosedived.
Kartik then bowled Clarke, and the collective delirium intensified when Tendulkar took a simple catch on the square-leg boundary after Adam Gilchrist had essayed a senseless sweep. But though India were in the box seat, the drama was far from over. Nathan Hauritz chiselled out 15 from 18 balls, and with Gillespie in thou-shall-not-pass mode, the target was whittled down by 20.
Anil Kumble, on for Harbhajan, provided the crucial breakthrough, with Aleem Dar giving India the benefit of the doubt after Hauritz was struck on the pad in front of leg stump. But Gillespie and Kasprowicz then weathered the assault for over half an hour while eking out 15, before the voluble Harbhajan had the final word.
Such a gripping contest had appeared very unlikely when Clarke, who had already given India plenty of heartache with the bat in this series, turned in a stunning spell with the ball either side of tea. Dravid, who had compiled a patient 27, was his first victim, caught off the glove by Gilchrist, and Karthik's prod was expertly grabbed by Ponting at silly point (6 for 188). With tea only moments away, Kaif - who was sprightly and fluent on his way to 25 - padded up to one that pitched in line and straightened.
The procession continued after the interval, as Harbhajan, Kartik and Zaheer managed just two runs between them to leave Clarke with the astonishing figures of 6 for 9 from 6.2 overs. For a while in the morning, it had seemed that the likes of Clarke wouldn't be needed, with McGrath sorting out both openers. Gautam Gambhir edged one to slip, and Virender Sehwag inexplicably shouldered arms to one that nipped back as India slumped to 2 for 14.
That brought McGrath and Tendulkar face to face in a Test for the final time. Laxman was already in the middle, promoted to the No. 3 slot from which he had scripted his Kolkata magnum opus, and after the first 11 overs of the innings produced just 15, the next three went for 30 with both men uncorking some champagne strokes.
Ponting then called on Hauritz, but there was to be no repeat of yesterday's dream spell. Tendulkar stroked one through cover and then slammed one into the stand bearing his name as he raced to a 62-ball half-century. For the first time in a fair while, there was a real urgency to Tendulkar's method. When he not stroking boundaries with a flourish, he worked the ball into the gaps and scampered singles and twos that often had the leaden-footed Laxman struggling. He batted with the panache and fluency of old for his 55, before an attempt to fetch the ball to leg only resulted in a top-edged skyer that was beautifully caught on the run by Clarke.
Dravid was never fluent, save for a brief phase after lunch when he drove Hauritz with a flourish through midwicket and cover, but his presence allowed Laxman freedom to go for his shots. But the attacking intent, especially against Hauritz, was to be his undoing. After bisecting the leg-side field with a pull and piercing the off side with a fabulous cover-drive, he smashed the next ball in the direction of long-off, only to watch in amazement as Hauritz dived to his left to snaffle the chance (4 for 153).
By then, Laxman had sauntered to 69, and in the final analysis, it - and Tendulkar's gorgeous cameo - made all the difference, as Australia's dream of a 3-0 series win went up in huge puffs of Mumbai dust.

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 242 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bigsteve I WILL BE BACK This is actually the nicest Sheraton that I have stayed at in a couple years. If you change one thing it would be crazy. The Bell Captain "William" deserves a big kudos. I just wish I had a couple of my Platinum cards to give to him because he deserved it. I will make sure he gets recognized. The gals at the front desk were also great. Last but not least the food at Humphreys was to die for. August 5, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Jimmies777 1123 Room is too loud Overall, I have stayed at this hotel numerous times. This time I was put into a room that faced I5, wondering if the hotel really values me as a customer. I've stayed there several times and have Platinum status. Couldn't sleep from 3am on both mornings due to the traffic noise. Very disappointing and I shouldn't have to complain, 1123 has to be one of the worst rooms in the hotel, period! May 3, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by MrsC3 Not a comfortable hotel I stayed here for the weekend to visit my son in UCSD. Location was very convenient BUT: - walls are so thin I could hear the people watching TV next door around midnight - breakfast staff needs to know how to apply the complimentary breakfast coupon; I was almost charged - I don't like paying extra $13/night for parking - A/C could not be controlled; I just unplugged it February 19, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by sp79 Nice & quiet This is a nice and quiet hotel, and pretty hidden. There are several buildings that make up the hotel, so only 2-3 floors per building, which give it very cozy/homely feel rather than a 20 story business hotel. Club is pretty good, though they turn off the coffee machine in the evenings. Overall a great hotel if you're in the SD area, not so sure if it's a true 4 star though. May 15, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by GT1215 No SPG Recognition We were given a room near a busy entry way and had to listen to hotel guests coming and going all night long. Unfortunately, it was late and we were tired from a long drive and didn't want to deal with a room change when we had to get going early the next morning. This hotel completely ignored the fact that we were SPG members in placing us in such a horribly located room. April 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by GuestJun2014 Great Hotel to stay with Family Clean, Friendly, Convenience to UCSD June 27, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mattchu We keep Returning I like this hotel because the club rooms have fenced patios (perfect for our medium pup) and they have a sensible dog fee ($40 per stay). The gorunds are well maintained and you can park your car very close to your room. Great is you are in and out a lot. Location is great too. Also, the staff in the Club Lounge is always first rate. Housekeeping - NOT so much. November 30, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Momindant "ADA room" did not have ADA bathroom I requested an ADA-accessible room to accomodate my mother. She has difficulty walking and needs a no-step/roll-in shower and a high toilet. We did get a room adjacent to the parking lot as requested, but the bathroom was not accessible, with no room for her walker and the tub was standard, with high sides. A wheelchair could never have fit into that bathroom. January 11, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by TravelLady1119 Will NEVER stay here again, Was not given any recognition for my lifetime Gold status. This was to be a month long stay. Checked out after one night. The night manager on duty tried to be helpful but the General manager had no interest in accommodating me for a long stay. Moved to another local hotel, they gave me an amazing room, ocean view. April 24, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by d123 Not following other Sheraton room quality standards Sheraton is usually one our top choices and one of the main reasons is they don't spray or use toxic fragrances in the rooms. However, for some reason the La Jolla site has now ruined the rooms by using fragrance in all their linens. Even if you do not have health problems from fragrances good hotels should not use items that put their fragrance on you. April 11, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Alex my stay at Sheraton la Jolla I arrived early in the morning. The person on the reception didn't recognize that I am SPG member. No welcoming smile. The Wi-Fi signal in the room was very slow and in on and off and I couldn't get my work done also I had to go to the lobby and use the hotel computers. The hotel is isolated and away from attractive locations if walking. March 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by yycflyer Not a great location. Very nice property, the kids really enjoyed the pool. The club lounge host was very friendly and provided some good advice for visiting around La Jolla. The popcorn in the room was a nice touch, the kids enjoyed curling up and watching a movie after a busy day. The location is a bit off the beaten track for vacationing, you end up driving everywhere. April 14, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Loyalist This hotel has seen a better day The rooms are small and outdated, poor lighting. Bathroom are so small. Signed up for Green program, but had to call to get trash emptied, more supplies. Parking is pain, this is more like a motel, than a hotel. Sheraton is supposed to be step up from 4 Points, but I have found the opposite to be true in this and most of my recent stays at Sheraton. April 2, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Dicmicaz Short stay, but very nice Warmly greeted, helpful check-in process. Great location, but a bit far from the water. La Jolla is nt a user friendly destination, so get good directions. Room was nice, comfortable. Shopping center next door has everything you need. Loved having a fridge, and no fee for parking! Pool and hot tub very nice and huge. Like to stay longer next time. September 9, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Notafan101 Hidden costs- not impressed The beds and the pool were the only thing good about this hotel. When booking, the website reset the month and booked my reservation wrong. When I called to fix it, they said I would have to pay $150 to cancel the previous reservation, even though it was their site and barely booked. I should have paid it and booked somewhere else. Instead, I paid it and got the reservation for the dates I needed. The bathroom has no exhaust fan, so with 4 adults, you can imagine the embarrassment. The tv never had a clear picture, and there was no DVD player to play movies we had brought. The wi-fi is only for 24 hours, and painfully slow. When we checked out, we had to pay $13/day for parking in the lot. That should be included in the price of the room. At 6:30 in the morning, if you are in a room that faces the parking lot, be ready to be woken up by the garbage truck dumping the dumpster, and for the staff to feign ignorance and treat you like you are making it all up. March 17, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Tad77 Very pleasant The setting is charming and the location adjacent to La Jolla Village Mall is excellent. I would have rated everything as "excellent," except the friendly dining service at Humphry's made a mistake and overcharged $5. (I didn't have time to correct this mistake, because I didn't notice until the next morning when I had a tight schedule to keep). June 16, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by DownUnder The Good, the bad but NEVER ugly Our 8 night stay gave us a critical insight to the professionalism of the hotel. Staff at the reception area were highly professional; staff in both the restaurant and Shooter's Bar were highly professional; Valet attendant, William, was outstanding with our late request for a cab to a wedding and his proactive behaviour to ensure that I was not left alone to transport 7 suitcases from our room to the rental. Great job William! We especially warmed to the bar staff (Sierra, Scott and co.) who made our nightcaps highly enjoyable. BUT, the housekeeping daily on our room was inconsistent. Some days we had to request an adequate number of towels and amount of toilet paper. We also had to accept random daily housekeeping that could occur anywhere from 9am to late afternoon. I suspect that the hotel took advantage of our 8 night stay and 'cut and pasted' housing keeping to our room depending on housekeeping to other rooms where stays were much less. August 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Meriam Staff are accomodating we had 2 rooms for 2 nights starting 12/27. Power outage in one room on the 1st night. We were not charged for 1 night and parking fees was waived. We forgot cell phone's charger. We called and they promised to call us back and hopefully mail the charger. Hotel & room were not as expected, but service was excellent and very accommodating. December 30, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Marty40 Poor recognition of loyal clients Although I am a Lifetime Gold and my travel partner a Platinum 75 member, the hotel refused to grant complimentary access to their Club Lounge. The reservation was in my name. The reason given was that there are too many Platinum members. Even Starwood's Platinum service representative was unable to convince the hotel to make an exception. March 4, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by mpol Fine hotel. For biz or quick family stay Stayed last week as a Plat. I would consider this more of a biz hotel than a family spot. Next to the highway. Yes, an ok pool. But doesn't really feel like a holiday place. No Plat upgrade. And bar closed at 11pm and there was nothing to eat or drink there after 11pm. Also, poor Internet service. A fine place. But nothing special. August 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ubtraveler1 Another Wonderful Stay! I recently started staying here for work and will definitely be back on a regular basis. My room in Building E (facing the courtyard) was wonderful, the staff is warm and friendly, and the food and service in the restaurant (Humphrey's) is top notch! May 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Dart76 Easy access to I-5 and quick run to airport Everything was fine except for: When we called I asked if a shuttle was available. It was but it was not free and the limo they called charged $55. A coupon for 50% off at Humprey's did not apply to breakfast even tho, we asked the morning after checking in. The fine print did say only for lunch and supper. Suggest you add lunch. January 4, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Paul67 Returning Guest Having stayed here 5-6 times over the past two years, it is one of my top 10 favorite hotels to stay in. Rooms are always clean and the lounge is always nicely attended to with great staff. Grounds are pleasant to view. Only negative is the parking fee, which is clearly a money grab. I expect to pay parking at downtown locations. April 20, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by NapaMom Nice grounds and comfortable bed The grounds are really nice, just make sure you get a room facing them! I told them I was a SPG member and gave my card at check in, was given a non SPF room over the back parking lot while my friends who also are SPG members had a nice room looking at the pool with popcorn, water, etc in the room- I wasn't too happy!! February 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mimi10 Great location We stayed here for a long weekend. It was very clean and staff was very friendly and helpful. The location is great for getting around San Diego, close to highways, close to a nice mall and various reataurants. Some construction was going on, but it wasn't too bad. We were gone most of the day when they were working. November 6, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Olias Staff Needs Training I liked this hotel, although it is a bit old and in need of improvement (which is underway). We had some staff problems, from the lack of a bellperson when we arrived to finding a pool attendant to bring towels (none were in any of the bins.) On the plus side, room service food was overall pretty good. February 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by OrcaBalloons Great Customer Service I stayed there last week for a few days. I have to say William and everyone there were great! Very attentive, friendly and extremely helpful. I had to go back and forth from event to event and William made it a breeze to get a taxi/town car. My stay was overall, very pleasant. I will definitely stay there again! October 25, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Margiesmom We'll stay here again We've stayed here several times...and plan to do it again. This hotel is well located--walking distance to shops and restaurants, a short drive to all other attractions in the area. The rooms are quiet, clean and comfortable. Rates are reasonable. April 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Natalie7 Great updated property I am very selective about my hotels and room and the rooms at property are nicely updated. The best part was the white sheets and white duvet cover. Very comfortable bed. Nice amenities and with an exception of some dust balls around the baseboards, the room was very clean. Definitely recommend this property. January 24, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Tommy021 April Stay For the price that I paid and the amenities that I received just did not add up. Too many teenagers running around at night could not sleep well. The free internet is dog slow. Should not have to pay for higher speed in the Executive suites. April 28, 2014

While most of us will be celebrating Independence Day with sizzling grills, chilling beers and bursting fireworks, one Texan took his patriotism to a whole new level, by traveling to all 50 states and shooting video of himself waving the American flag in each one.
Recently, I wrote an editorial piece on how Oklahoma congressman Jim Bridenstine was turned away from the Unaccompanied Minors From Foreign Countries facility on Fort Sill.
Although I created an opinion piece and have made a stance that Bridenstine seems to care more about his political agenda than the actual well-being of the children; my ethics and teachings of journalism dictate to tell the whole story and not just one side.

2014 Fed 100
Name: Margie Graves
Title: Deputy CIO
Agency: Department of Homeland Security
Team first. In her 11-year tenure at DHS, Graves has served in many upper-level IT management jobs. In 2013, she stepped into the acting CIO role after Richard Spires' abrupt departure and kept the office running smoothly for six months until a new leader was brought on. She testified on short notice before unhappy House members, maintained her professionalism even when Capitol Hill staffers mischaracterized her career at DHS and refused all press inquiries unrelated to DHS IT initiatives. In short, Graves put the department's needs ahead of her own interests in the face of intense public scrutiny.

DEFINITION of 'Maturity'
The period of time for which a financial instrument remains outstanding. Maturity refers to a finite time period at the end of which the financial instrument will cease to exist and the principal is repaid with interest. The term is most commonly used in the context of fixed income investments, such as bonds and deposits.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Maturity'
Upon maturity of a fixed income investment such as a bond, the borrower has to pay back the full amount of the outstanding principal, plus any applicable interest to the lender. Non-payment upon maturity may constitute default, which can have very severe repercussions for the borrower's business and credit rating.
The maturity of an investment is a primary consideration for the investor, since it has to match his or her investment horizon. For example, a young couple who are saving for a down payment on a condo that they intend to purchase within a year would be ill-advised to invest in a five-year term deposit, especially one that carries penalties if cashed early. A money-market fund or a one-year term deposit may be a much better choice in this case.
The term maturity is seldom used with reference to derivative instruments such as options and warrants. For such instruments, the term expiry or expiration date is used instead to refer to the fact that they have a limited life and will cease to exist after a certain time period.

- Studio: Fox 2000 Pictures
- Release Date: Jun 30, 2006
- Starring: Adrian Grenier, Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep
- Summary: The best-selling novel about a young woman who stumbles into the hectic worlds of high fashion and publishing comes to the big screen.

Score distribution:
Positive: 26 out of 40

If you can tell the difference between a mule and a pump, attendance at The Devil Wears Prada is mandatory. You might have to reach back to "Funny Face" to find a fashion movie so on-trend.
While the picture isn't brilliant, it is, at its most entertaining, a kicky, surprisingly astute throwback to bygone Hollywood social comedies.
It's an occasion for Streep to play against a stereotype, and win. It's a rout, in fact.
Streep single-handedly elevates this sitcomy but tolerably entertaining adaptation of Lauren Weisberger's bestselling 2003 roman a clef about a personal assistant's year of chic hell under the thumb of the dragon lady of the fashion world.
The comic appeal of The Devil Wears Prada is the cinematic equivalent of a size 2 - wafer-thin and ultimately lacking in meat and substance.
Meryl Streep is indeed poised and imperious as Miranda, and Anne Hathaway is a great beauty who makes a convincing career girl. I liked Stanley Tucci, too, as Nigel... But I thought the movie should have reversed the roles played by Grenier and Baker. Grenier comes across not like the old boyfriend but like the slick New York writer, and Baker seems the embodiment of Midwestern sincerity.
If you shut down your brain and simply take in the wardrobe and performances by Streep and Blunt you'll have a swell time, like aimlessly flipping the pages of a fashion magazine.
