"Smelly decent spot"
If they take care, it could be a usual travel spotGenuine Expedia guest review
"Over night lay over"
We had an 8 hour layover and stayed the night here. It was cheap and close to MIA airport. Probably nicer places to stay though. Just an older motel. Nice staff and had a free shuttle to the airport every 30mibutes which was nice.Genuine Expedia guest review
Great place to stay if going to airport. Breakfast bar to small.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Comfortable, friendly hotel near Mia & major malls"
I felt, as always, safe and comfortable at Sleep Inn. The front desk and housekeeping staff are polite and accommodating. One shortcoming, which I find annoying as a nonsmoker, is that invariably, one has to walk through and inhale cigarette smoke in getting from the lobby entrance to your vehicle. In fact the smoking area is seemingly just at the entrance […] to the lobby and therefore nonsmokers and children cannot avoid passive smoking while entering or exiting the hotel The other shortcoming is the limited 'good parking'. After about 9 pm, the parking area is usually filled and one has to park in relatively poorly light part of the car park. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"fair at best"
Have to ring a bell at front desk. I could hear employees talking in room adjacent to front desk but they made me wait a few minutes to come out to check me in. From their conversation I could tell they weren't busy working. The next morning I had no hot water in room.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great hotel"
Great hotel. great location, excellent service Excellent stayGenuine Expedia guest review
Good service and condition.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Proximity and comfort"
Great services and nice staff. Clean, quiet, and comfortable. Thank you.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Updated hotel close to the airport"
Nicely remodeled rooms. Was very impressed with the breakfast choices and it was all included. Free shuttle to/from the airport. Would definitely recommend this hotel (Sleep Inn Miami International Airport).Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice hotel, close to airport"
My husband and I stayed for one night since we had to travel the following morning. The persons checking us in and out were professional and pleasant. The shuttle was available 10 minutes prior to leaving, giving us adequate time to load in our luggage and still get a bite of breakfast without being concerned about the flight. Breakfast was also great, […] starting on time at 6:30 am, with yogurt, meat patties, wheat bread (in addition to regular white bread), donuts and different types of juice. Only drawback is that we could hear the airplanes landing and taking off from time to time when awake. When we were sleeping we couldn't hear a thing =) I would recommend this hotel to someone else.

"Great airport hotel"
Hotel was perfect for our needs both going in and out of the country. Service was awesome - very helpful and friendly front desk staff. Super comfortable beds - we slept very well.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Hallways looked clean but smelled dingy. Toilet flushing was very loud and shower leaked at bottom of shower door. Staff said that they would mark down the repairs to be addressed by maintenance.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Easy transport to Miami International airport"
Nice room and great price. Very close to airport and provides shuttle to and from airport if needed. We had a rental car so we didn't use the shuttle. Staff was very nice and the room was clean. Great bargain price accommodation.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Generally very good but breakfast area too small"
Generally very good but breakfast area too smallGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very good accommodation for the price"
The hotel was nice and clean. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. I was able to get a scale to estimate the weight of my luggage on departure. I was also able to get needle and thread when I had a wardrobe malfunction. Overall a very pleasant stay. My only issue was that the wifi service was intermittent.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not ok"
Bad experience not worth the money.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Location, location."
Good for the price for a 1 night stay. Halls, pool could be cleaned a bit more.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"What do you expect...?"
For the location (Miami, but near airport), and price, you should not expect 4 or 5 star. The hotel is OK for what it is, and the majority staying here are in transit or preparing to fly. Check-in / out was very quick and easy, free wi-fi with no issues. They need to replace those horrible, noisy a/c units with more modern, thermostatically-controlled […] ones to better control temp and noise. Mind you, at least it drowned out the aircraft noise somewhat ! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Dirty room, poor equipment"
cob webs in room from ceiling to wall, dead battery in tv remote, carpet stained, shower door falling apart and rusted, mattress lumpy and shower faucet too hard to operate.Genuine Expedia guest review
"close to my work"
ok for businees trip Buena atencion, cerca a una cancha de golf lo que lo hace bonito para caminar. desayuno incluido bueno.Genuine Expedia guest review
"acceptable for the price"
room doesn't keep noise away, terrible breakfast, some of the staff wouldn't even speak english and were so rudeGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Just what I needed!"
I want to say that from the pick up at the Airport, to the drop off at the Airport, the staff was awsome. Driver was very friendly and helpful! Front desk staff gave me great information and was friendly! Room was clean and comfortable. There was a sports bar around the corner walking distance and had the best wings and drinks. But most of all, left […] my camera and even after a month later contacting them, IT WAS THERE. Trustworthy company and staff! Will return! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Close the airfort. Good for sleeping place.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Sleep Inn north of Miami airport"
Convenient to airport for a late arrival. Price was right. Got what I paid for. As others have noted, not a lot of places to eat nearby. Chose between Denny's and Ihop, Denny's won. Had breakfast for supper.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to MIA and Toms NFL"
The shuttle to/ from MIA was the most efficient that I have encountered between any hotel and an airport, Also printer attached to PC in Foyer made printing boarding passes easy.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice but small"
The staff was very nice. The room was small but in great condition. The only problem was the shuttle from the airport. It never showed up. Three calls and nearly an hour of waiting later - we took a cab $15 to the hotel. But the Manager gladly refunded my cab fare with receipt the next morning. So get that receipt! You may also have trouble with the […] shuttle. Reading the reviews others have as well. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Room in a Great Area"
Very nice room, very quite and relaxing........., Breakfast was Great!!!! First hotel with real breakfastGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"If on a budget"
When I arrived at the airport at 6 pm on saturday,I called the hotel to let them know I arrived and how soon could I expect the free shuttle. They told me the next shuttle wold be at 630pm. It showed up at 645 pm. When I arrived at the hotel, the young man who checked me in , wasn't attentive, friendly and looked overwhelmed. Not sure why, being that […] there was no one else on the lobby. There were only 5 pp on shuttle and I was the first to check in. The hotel/ room was nothing to brag about. It had the basics to get me they the night. Room has no fridge had to go to another floor to get ice. Sheets were cleaned. Shower could have used a deep cleaning . If your on a budget . Hotel alright for a couple of nights. Restaurants in vacinity. On Sunday morning, the young lady who checked me out was very friendly, gracious and attentive. Completely different than my check in, the shuttle arrived promptly at 6am. I missed breakfast , didn't start until 630am Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Miami airport"
Close to airport. Very nice Thai restaraunt around. Good valueGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Cheap overnight hotel"
Okay, like the free breakfast, the bed was very comfy. The room could use a little uplift in colour, and the carpet was drab.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great service, skeevy hotel"
Stayed there for a couple of nights on the way to Central America and back. Hotel did not seem very clean and the walls are thin as paper. But the staff is extremely nice - front desk, shuttle driver, etc. Breakfast was so-so. Won't stay there again, but you make your own call.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"convenient to all must see sights"
i think it's a good hotel, the front dest boy and the dirver very kind. since they shared their shuttle with holiday inn, the holiday inn words is more bigger and easy to see than Sleep in the shuttle. so if you waiting for a shuttle in the airport, please notice the shutte with big green 'H'. There are some retarants nearby, very convenient.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"About what you expected"
A tired hotel in an industrial area near the airport. Some of that is good, so of that just is. A good price and a hopping off point for my Miami visits but not a destination hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"very good place."
The staff was very helpful. We got there very early, and they let us check in. Room was clean.Genuine Expedia guest review
We wanted a place convenient to the airport in Miami and it is. The breakfast was great, but finding dinner in that area wasn't convenient.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Really gross. Walls are as thin as paper. Stinky hallways that smelled like cigarette smoke.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Look elsewhere"
This hotel is in a fairly sketchy neighborhood. It is not well-kept up. Our room had a bizarre bathroom layout and only a shower stall (and a small one at that). Breakfast was not appetizing. The only thing it has going for it is proximity to the airport, and notwithstanding how close it is it only runs a shuttle every 30 minutes and won't store luggage. […] I think there have to be better choices. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Bad airport shuttle."
I booked this hotel because I wanted to have shuttle service at a late hour from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel to the cruise ship dock. They had said they provided 24 hour shuttle from airport to hotel, and that I was to call them when I arrived at the airport and the shuttle would come to pick me up in 10 minutes. However, i had to call […] repeatedly, and although the reception staff said that the shuttle was on a continous loop to the airport, we never saw one until one hour after our arrival. There were numerous shuttles from other hotels eg Day's Inn and Holiday Inn, and I regretted not booking those instead, since we were all tired after a long trip. The hotel itself was okay, clean enough, although the shower area was rather small. Breakfast was adequate, and the shuttle to the dock was fine, at $10 pp. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"It was ok"
Our plane flew early in the morning, so we chose this one. And even it is near the airport, it is not noisy.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Fine for a short stay"
This was close to the airport and was fine for an overnight before catching a flight home.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Don't Bother"
We only used this hotel for a quick nights sleep and an early am departure for our flight. During our very brief stay we ran into some issues which were disappointing. The shuttle took almost an hour to pick us up from the airport. I had to call 3 different times in order to get a pickup. When we were trying to fall asleep we noticed that the window […] wouldn't close all of the way and with it's close proximity to the airport the window issue caused us to wake up several times because of planes that were taking off. In addition, the sink leaked all night long and my shower at 6am was freezing cold. Overall, not a good experience. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
We stayed one night at Sleep Inn prior to our flight out. It was OK at best, the carpet in our room was soiled and the hallways didn't smell good. Probably would choose a different hotel if we had a redo.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Fine if your just passing through"
The room was fine. Smelled nice, which is something I had seen was not the case in other Miami Hotels. The area was safe, however it is not close to much, but a fine place to stay if you just need a place to stay for a night. The Breakfast was good, about what you would expect from a hotel. It is a $23.00 Taxi ride to the Cruise ship port. DO NOT COUNT […] OF THE AIRPORT SHUTTLE. We waited almost 50 minutes until we saw the shuttle and then when it finally reached us it was full. We were un-willing to wait any longer so we had to go downstairs to the SPECIAL blue taxis. $15.00 later and a very grumpy driver we were to the hotel. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"get what you pay for"
basic room to sleep; breakfast is also basic; shuttle goes every 30 minutes - good schedule. Hotel not for staying - only to sleepGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great Value"
Worth the price, good breakfast included. The front desk worked to get us a shuttle from the hotel to the airport. We ended up with our own cab and only had to pay shuttle price ($20) for 2 people to the port. They also provided a free shuttle from the airport to the hotel the night we arrived. It's about a 10 minute ride from the airport.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Good Hotel for a over night stay."
We use the Sleep Inn Miami International Airport as an overnight stay on our trip to the Dominican Republic. With only 8 hours till our next flight the location of the Sleep Inn was perfect for what we needed, better than sleeping in the airport. The rooms were clean and quite. The breakfast was ok. The free shuttle service was very nice. I felt the […] price was ok if you include what it would have cost you for a taxi and breakfast at a lower priced hotel that does not offer those services. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Good hotel for short stays.."
Nice room, beds and bathroom. Breakfast not so good in a very small area.Genuine Expedia guest review
"No worries"
We stayed here as our last nigt in Miami before heading home. It was perfectly fine, it was clean, and quiet and close to the airport. The front desk was friendly and the breakfast was nice. I have no complaints. It was everything I needed for a place to stay before leaving to go homeGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excelent choice for business executives"
I really reccomend this hotel for Work and business.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great hotel for cruising"
Stayed at the Sleep Inn prioir to cruise. I will definately consider staying again prior to my nest cruise.Genuine Expedia guest review

I'm hoping that whoever takes over for the executive director -- and for his other cronies who believe in their own sense of righteous importance and entitlement -- will look again at these programs with clearer eyes and sharper minds.

If you aren't communicating in Chinese, you're missing an important audience in Metro Vancouver. And if you don't have a team member or members that speak Mandarin and Cantonese, you aren't getting a complete picture of the myriad and evolving ways to talk to Chinese-speaking Vancouverites.
Every single day we either lose or waste one third of our food -- that's 1.3-billion tonnes a year. Not only could we have fed people with that food but it's an astonishing waste of energy as well. Just think of all the energy that goes into growing, fertilizing, processing and transporting 1.3-billion tonnes of food a year. Harvest Power has a partial solution.
It's a well-known fact that real estate prices don't match our incomes out here on the West Coast. But if you eliminate the single-family home pipe dream and consider the growing popularity and relevance of condo living, it's not such a long shot to find a home the Vancouver millennial can afford.
Much like disdain for distraction, the Vancouver street artist isn't interested in fame either: "Anonymity is a must. I think a lot of people fantasize about the idea of celebrity, but the little taste I got was really overwhelming and awkward."
The players have checked out, and they look exhausted. It's not Tortorella's ice time that's killing them... it's the Luongo deal, the Schneider deal, and everything that's happened in the past three seasons. They're chewing old gum, pretending they're still sucking sugar.
As many writers can attest to, getting a script idea out of your head and onto the page isn't always so easy.
As an adolescent girl, I was awed by the notion of becoming an adult woman. Like Margaret in Judy Blume's classic coming of age novel, "Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret," I was obsessed with all the details, particularly menstruation, and on a semi-conscious level hoped that there would be some sort of fanfare when the momentous time came.

movies that r full of woman body exposure
Horror movies. I got tired of the same dumb teenage girl opening the door at night after asking who's there and getting no answer.
Men running around waving guns, shouting '@&%^*^&, and<br />
blowing things up. I particularly hate films where the main character keeps having to put their arse on a line, whatever that means....
Scary movies
horror... I hate it... really! duh!
Drama & sci fi
Most of them.
Serious ones.. or chick flicks
Chick flicks that are pointless melodrama. Chick flick genuine romance is fine, but when it becomes a 2 hour soap opera or a romance that is completely implausible, I'm out.
Big Hollywood comedies.
dirty ones
Anything with effeminate men as lovers. PUKES
all of them
Violent ones
Romantic comedy or the usual Hollywood garbage!
Horror. I kinda want to sleep at night, so I avoid them.

I had driven my car earlier in the day with it working just fine, but when I drove it to work the shifter was a little sticky. When I tried to leave I discovered that my shifter wouldn't go into any gear except 2nd or 4th. I pushed it out of the parking lot and drove it home (just a few blocks) and by the time I made it back it wouldn't go into any gear at all. I'm hoping it's just a problem with the linkage, but am unsure. IF it's only that and not the transmission, then about how much would that be to fix?

Does the clutch pedal feel squishy or not not as firm as you remember it. If it goes to the floor with little effort possible slave/master cilynder. Im not super familiar with Saturn manual trannys but some vehicle have a clutch fluid reservoir.
ReplyBritniSpat, December 09, 2011, 07:52Rookie
The clutch feels just fine! It's really just the shifter that's the problem...but because it won't go into gear the car is completely out of operation which is a problem.

it's about a 20 min bus ride to get there, but if its a clear day the views from the top are well worth the effort - I had the cable car to myself when I went, so it certainly wasn't busy!
We arrived at Beppu Station around 915am. Tourist info counter on right as we exit station. The lady staff is very efficient in English and the info we wanted were given to us in less than 10 mins, which meant we had less than 5 mins to grab our breakfast (we skipped breakfast to be early) and be at the...
Although a standard tourist venue, climb to the summit and enjoy a 360 view of the surrounding area. The air is definitely cooler and there is a good breeze. We took the time to sit and listen to the birds -- away from PA music and announcements by the ropeway station.

Because the toolbox uses an open architecture for the modular interactive tools, you can extend the toolbox by creating your own modular interactive tools, using standard Handle Graphics concepts and techniques. To help you create tools that integrate well with the existing modular interactive tools, the toolbox includes many utility functions that perform commonly needed tasks.
The utility functions can help check the input arguments to your tool, add callback functions to a callback list or remove them from a list, and align figure windows in relation to a fixed window. The toolbox also provides a set of functions that you can use to define a region-of-interest of various shapes, including points, lines, rectangles, ellipses, polygons, and freehand shapes — see Create Angle Measurement Tool for more information.
The following table lists these utility functions in alphabetical order. See the function's reference page for more detailed information.
Utility Function
Retrieve image model objects from image handles
Get default display range of image, based on its class
Access to properties of an image relevant to its display
Return information about image attributes

Get handle to most recent current figure containing an image
Display Open Image dialog box
Get all image handles
Create draggable, resizable line
Create draggable point
|Create draggable, resizable polygon
Display Save Image dialog box

Get application programmer interface (API) for a handle
|Retrieve pointer behavior from HG object
Return names of directories containing IPT and MATLAB® icons
Convert positive integer to ordinal string
|Install mouse pointer manager in figure
Delete function handle from callback list
|Store pointer behavior in HG object
Align figure windows
The toolbox includes a set of functions that you can use to enable users of your image processing GUI to define a region-of-interest (ROI) on the target image. The functions implement drawing of various shapes of ROI, such as rectangles, ellipses, and polygons, and returning information about the coordinates that define the ROI. These ROI objects support methods that you can use to control aspects of its appearance and behavior.
To illustrate how to use these ROI tools, this example creates a simple angle measurement tool This custom tool uses impoly to create a two-segment polyline on an image and displays the angle created by the two line segments in a title in the figure. Users of the tool can move the polyline anywhere on the image and view the angle formed by the two line segments.
function my_angle_measurement_tool(im) % Create figure, setting up properties figure('Name','My Angle Measurement Tool',... 'NumberTitle','off',... 'IntegerHandle','off'); % Display image in the axes imshow(im) % Get size of image. m = size(im,1); n = size(im,2); % Get center point of image for initial positioning. midy = ceil(m/2); midx = ceil(n/2); % Position first point vertically above the middle. firstx = midx; firsty = midy - ceil(m/4); lastx = midx + ceil(n/4); lasty = midy; % Create a two-segment right-angle polyline centered in the image. h = impoly(gca,[firstx,firsty;midx,midy;lastx,lasty],'Closed',false); api = iptgetapi(h); initial_position = api.getPosition() % Display initial position updateAngle(initial_position) % set up callback to update angle in title. api.addNewPositionCallback(@updateAngle); fcn = makeConstrainToRectFcn('impoly',get(gca,'XLim'),get(gca,'YLim')); api.setPositionConstraintFcn(fcn); % % Callback function that calculates the angle and updates the title. % Function receives an array containing the current x,y position of % the three vertices. function updateAngle(p) % Create two vectors from the vertices. % v1 = [x1 - x2, y1 - y2] % v2 = [x3 - x2, Y3 - y2] v1 = [p(1,1)-p(2,1), p(1,2)-p(2,2)]; v2 = [p(3,1)-p(2,1), p(3,2)-p(2,2)]; % Find the angle. theta = acos(dot(v1,v2)/(norm(v1)*norm(v2))); % Convert it to degrees. angle_degrees = (theta * (180/pi)); % Display the angle in the title of the figure. title(sprintf('(%1.0f) degrees',angle_degrees))
To use the angle measurement tool, pass it an image.
I = imread('gantrycrane.png');
The tool opens a figure window, displaying the image with the angle measure tool centered over the image in a right angle. Move the pointer over any of the vertices of the tool to measure any angle in the image. In the following figure, the tool is measuring an angle in the image. Note the size of the angle displayed in the title of the figure.

In the Enchanted Past, Regina enlists Hook to travel to Wonderland, steal Cora's heart and kill her. Since Cora is now the very Queen of Hearts, herself, that is a feat easier said than done. Cora grabs hold of Hook's heart, forces him to confess everything he knows about life back in L'enchantement, including the not small detail that Regina intends to cast the Dark Curse, and then returns with him.
Cora and Hook trick Regina into thinking Hook killed Cora. After mourning her mother for a moment, Regina returns to her evil plans, leaving Cora free to cast a barrier spell that will protect part of the realm from the Dark Curse. She explains to Hook that he will remain in stasis for 28 years, until the savior breaks the spell -- at which time they can begin their quest to travel to Regina's strange new world without magic and exact their revenge.
Enchanted Present. Team Princess travels to Rumpy's cell, where they find a strange scroll that contains only one word, written over, and over, and over again: Emma. They do find the bottle of squid ink, but alas, it is empty. Before anyone catches on, Aurora triggers the cell doors, trapping Team Princess (herself included) inside. Hook and Cora appear, reveal what they've done to Aurora, steal the compass, and set off on their Storybrooke quest.
Seeing her name on Rumpy's scroll drives home the fact that Rumpy engineered his own capture as well as the Dark Curse; Emma is devastated. She is certain she is no savior, only another one of Rumpy's dupes. While studying the scroll, Snow remembers Cora's grimoire and that magic dwelt in its very pages. Playing a hunch, she blows on the scroll. Because it was written in the coveted squid ink, magic pours off the parchment and opens the cell. As Teams Princess sets off to reclaim the compass, Aurora demands that her comrades tie her up and leave her behind. With her heart still in Cora's possession she knows she would only do them more harm than good.
Team Princess finds Cora and Hook at Lake Nostos, where the witch has magically drilled down to the source of the restorative waters, and used the wardrobe ashes to open a portal. During the battle, Mulan retrieves Aurora's heart. Snow and Emma tell her to return it to its rightful owner. Mulan leaves her sword with Snow -- explaining it can repel Cora's magic.
The sword doesn't do a bad job, but it's Emma who is truly repellent... er, in a good princess-y way. After knocking out Hook and grabbing the compass, she takes on Cora. When the witch reaches her hand into Emma's chest, she is unable to rip out her heart. Emma realizes there's a power within her and is able to magically throw off Cora. Snow and Emma waste no time in grabbing the compass and jumping into the portal. They're on their way back to...
Storybrooke. When Charming doesn't wake from the Sleeping Curse, Regina and Rumpy fear he might not have even been able to find Snow. Although Regina is reluctant at first, Rumpy convinces her that they must destroy the Storybrooke end of the portal to ensure that Cora will be unable to enter their new world.
When the dwarfs and Red discover that all the magical diamonds have disappeared from the mine, they know Rumpy and Regina must be at fault. They find Henry who, along with Red, ventures out to the wishing well. Regina explains to her disappointed son that they have to destroy the portal, in order to keep him safe from Cora. Henry reminds Regina that Good always defeats Evil, so Snow and Emma will surely best Cora. He pleads with Regina to stop the spell she and Rumpy have cast on the portal -- the spell which will kill anyone who tries to enter Storybrooke via that well.
Finally convinced, Regina grabs hold of the well and absorbs all of the magic. When she slumps to the ground, it seems it has all been for naught, but then Emma and Snow climb up out of the well. Hooray!
After a touching reunion, everyone rushes to Gold's shop, so that Snow can wake Charming with true love's kiss. She does so, which kicks off another touching reunion. Henry is grateful to Regina for her help, and hugs her, but is glad enough to leave her and head out to supper with Emma, the Charmings, Red, the Dwarfs, and anyone else who isn't Regina. Once he's alone with his pawn, Rumpy wastes no time in rubbing salt in Regina's wound.
Meanwhile, back in L'enchantement, Hook has possession of the giant's now blighted magic bean, but since Lake Nostros has reappeared, it won't remain blighted for long. Good may always defeat Evil, but Evil is nothing if not resilient.
As the Charmings make their way down the streets of Storybrooke, a ship appears on the horizon. Hook and Cora have reached Storybrooke. Let the games begin... you know, after more than a month's hiatus.
"Queen of Hearts" may already be one of my favorite episodes. I know I'm sort of an easy sell, because I've been pining for the family to be reunited, but there's so much more to it. I'm glad to see that Regina enchanted Hook's hook, which is how he was able to rip out Aurora's heart, and she limited the enchantment, too, so we won't have him ripping out hearts willy nilly. I love both that Emma is powerful in her own right and that she is profoundly touched by the fact that she is powerful, and that she's the product of true love. Regina's desire to redeem herself in Henry's eyes gives her character so much depth, as does her pain at watching her boy leave with his biological family. Her Majesty's road to redemption with be nothing if not rocky, particularly with Mommy Dearest coming to town.
I'll be back with the whole story, in the full recap. In the meantime, please grade the episode at the top of the page and then come on over to the forum, where good always conquers evil, if TWoP Tennison has anything to say about it, and she has everything to say about it.
Wow. I just want to turn this recap into one big love letter to Once Upon A Time, and perhaps I shall. Because of how TWoP deadlines fall, because of my silly home life, and because of the wonky way in which my brain works, I'm always jumping back and forth between my two shows (OUAT and The Vampire Diaries).
I write recaplets right after an episode airs, but I need a couple of days to rewatch repeatedly, take notes, and let my thoughts stew, before I start the full recap. There are some benefits to this method. For example, this season, when OUAT was moving too slowly for me (especially where the Charming family reunion is concerned), TVD's breakneck pace satisfied my need for instant gratification. When TVD moved too quickly -- when it shorthanded development or plotting -- OUAT was there for me, painstakingly planting seeds and deliberately developing its upcoming revelations, with tender loving care.
I was about 3/4s of the way through with this week's OUAT recap, when I sat down to watch TVD last night. Today, I'm so glad I have OUAT to return to, because my palate is in serious need of cleansing, after the misogyny-fest that was last night's TVD.
People like to talk about the sexism (and other problems) inherent in fairy tales. I know it's there and am not trying to minimize it. The thing is, I try hard not to judge stories of the past (or people, for that matter -- I'm looking at you, Thomas Jefferson) ONLY by present day standards. Like for instance, I believe that, regardless of when it took (or still takes) place, slavery is evil. That's a no-brainer, I know. That said, I don't think someone like Jefferson can only be defined in light of his participation in that evil institution. He took part in it willingly, even though he had moral problems with it. He let it corrupt him. The thing is, we're all corrupt to some degree or another. Think back to when you were four years old -- or whatever age at which you were still your best self. Don't you do things now that four year old you would have been appalled at? I sure do. I try not to, but I'm fallible. I'm full of conflicting desires and principles. I get lazy, selfish, greedy, or filled with self-pity. I am often not the woman four-year-old me would have considered my best self.

The money, most from Iraqi oil proceeds and cash seized from Saddam Hussein's regime, easily found its way out of the compound and the country. In one case, a U.S. soldier assigned as an assistant to the Iraqi Olympic boxing team was given huge amounts of cash for a trip to the Philippines, where the soldier gambled away somewhere between $20,000 and $60,000.
A new audit of U.S. financial practices in Iraq has uncovered irregularities including millions of reconstruction dollars stuffed casually into footlockers and filing cabinets, a U.S. soldier in the Philippines who gambled away cash belonging to Iraq, and three Iraqis who plunged to their deaths in a rebuilt hospital elevator that had been improperly certified as safe.
The audit, released Tuesday by the Office of the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction, expands on previous findings of fraud, incompetence and confusion as the U.S. occupation poured money into training and rebuilding programs in 2003 and 2004. It details problems in an area covering half of Iraq, with new findings in the southern and central provinces of Anbar, Karbala, Najaf, Wasit, Babil and Qadisiya.
Agents from the Inspector General's Office found that one official kept $2 million in a bathroom safe, another more than a half-million dollars in an unlocked footlocker. One contractor received more than $100,000 to refurbish an Olympic pool but only polished the pumps; U.S. officials certified the work as completed. More than 2,000 contracts, ranging from a few thousand dollars to more than a half-million - $88 million in all - were examined, yielding some clear indications of potential fraud, the report said.
Some of those cases are expected to overlap the investigations of four Americans who have been arrested on bribery, theft, weapons and conspiracy charges in what federal prosecutors say was a scheme to steer reconstruction projects to a U.S. contractor in the southern city of Hilla, which served as a kind of regional capital under the Coalition Provisional Authority.
But much of the material is new and is likely to raise major questions about how huge expenditures of Iraqi and U.S. funds were accounted for.
"What's sad about it is that, considering the destruction in the country, with looting and so on, we needed every dollar for reconstruction," said Wayne White, a former State Department official whose responsibilities included Iraq from 2003 to 2005.
The casual arrangement at the main vault in Hilla led to a dispute when one U.S. official, clearing his accounts, took $100,000 from a colleague's stack of cash, the report said.
It was only because the second official had to make a payment that day and realized he was short on cash that the move was discovered.
Sometimes, the consequences were deadly. A $662,800 contract to rehabilitate the Hilla General Hospital was paid in June 2004 though the work was not finished, the report says.
The report says agents were told that days before they visited in September 2004, an elevator that was supposed to have been renovated - but was not - crashed, killing three people.

The hotel was an unexpected delight. The room was beautiful, and the food at the poolside restaurant was excellent. The setting, including the waterscape with ducks and koi, was very relaxing and secluded. We'll be back!
Clean quite
Felt like home form home - staff in poolside restaurant really made the best start to the day - after the food.Could not fault location or facilities here.Highly recommended for relaxing!
Nothing to dislike.
Free wifi, free parking, good room service menu.
A little pricey.
Beautiful landscaping, very nice looking and clean room. Poolside restaurant had fantastic food at reasonable prices- very surprising for a hotel restaurant. Staff were very pleasant and helpful.
Dinah's Poolside Restaurant was excellent.
Enjoyed the gardens, the spacious rooms, comfortable beds and wonderful welcoming staff. Highly recommend the place
Great location since both quiet but centrally located. It also had an old world feel that was refreshing after too many 5-star hotels. Beds very comfortable and attention to detail with the landscaping and water features was appreciated. A lovely spot.
The pedestal sink looks nice but its not very functional. No place to put cosmetics etc around the sink.
Like Asia Garden. I like it there. :) d
I chose Dinah's based in previous customers' reviews and was not disappointed. The room was nice and made for a very comfortable stay. I loved the sitting area on the balcony!
We liked everything about it. Large fully equipped, comfortable room. Excellent shower. The pool area and gardens are a little different from the average hotel, a really beautiful setting
No problems and no complaints, our visit was perfect
This hotel is amazing! The property is so beautiful and peaceful. The staff was great and very welcoming. We were upgraded as a surprise for our anniversary. That was unexpected and so thoughtful. I wish we could have stayed more than one night!
The parking for the side we stayed on was a little limited, but we didn't mind the walk through the gorgeous property to get back to the room.
good value
do not get rooms with an interior corridor. It is VERY noisy
Clean, location, bed comfy, nice shower, good water temperature. Fridge, wine glasses
Room too small for 2 people, no place to put suitcases but on the floor(no luggage racks). No counter space for toiletries in bath (pedestal sink) Very noisy. Requested quieter room change denied unless we paid $50
We love to stay in your hotel when we travel to the Palo Alto area to visit our son and his family. Your weekend rates are fabulous, we love the restaurant, and the accomodations are always top notch. The rooms are so clean and quiet and the staff so helpful. Wish as seniors we could get the weekend rate during the week sometimes. Keep up the good work. Jack and Kathie Valentine
The staff in this hotel are excellent...besides one older gentleman who was consistently rude and unpleasant to deal with.
Recently renovated but little details like the front door and its frame were left as is which make the property look tired. Strong deoderizer/ perfume smell in the rooms - my luggage still reeks of it a week later! Its probably harmless as it didn't affect my allergies but its there nonetheless and impossible to ignore. Free shuttle only for business purposes - not as advertised. I would not have stayed so far (5 miles) from Palo Alto if I had known this was the case. I got car in the end which worked out well.
Being able to relax then go downstairs for a good dinner made this place the spot to returnto, for sure.
There is no classic bar
facilities overall were excellent.
Room smelled and looked a little old.
Very relaxing garden - especially after long-hours of work, this is the perfect getaway. High hospitality, super friendly front-desk - they offered to drive me to/from work at no cost. Would choose to come here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend to business travelers!
None! Loved everything about this hotel.
Quiet location off busy El Camino road with appealing landscaping that included a creek and large trees. A great escape from the nearby hustle and bustle. Very nice room. Outstandingly friendly staff.
An hotel in a totally unexcepted environment. Suddenly you feel to be in Asia. Not a motel at all. Nice and confortable room and bathroom.Excellent service. A model for a city hotel. I will come back and I have already recommended it.
Half bottles of water were nor complimentary
Hidden back off a busy street was this wonderful place. Loved opening my sliding door to hear the water fountains and see the koi! Pool side cafe was convienent and good.
Well-kept property. Fantastic staff. Great room!
That we had to leave!
Staff are very kind WIFI speed is very fast Cleaness is perfect Hotel facilities are very good The bed is comfortable. I had a very good sleep. The room is along the pool, and the view is nice.

This hotel exceeds its 3 star rating; it is architecturally historic, immaculate and beautifully furnished. Every staff member we encountered was professional and attentive. The hotel is within walking distance of Cusco's main attractions. I always felt safe while walking around town, often without my husband. The breakfast buffet was a feast and restaurant exceptional for the cost. We stayed four nights and highly recommend it as an excellent value for money.

1943: The Battle of MidwayTalk0
this wiki
The game is set in the Pacific theater of World War II, off the coast of the Midway Atoll. The goal is to attack the Japanese Air Fleet that bombed the players' American Aircraft Carrier, pursue all Japanese Air and Sea forces, fly through the 16 levels of play, make their way to the Japanese battleship Yamato and destroy her. 11 Levels consist of an Air-to-Sea battle (with a huge battleship or an aircraft carrier as an End-Level Boss), while 5 levels consist of an all-aerial battle against a squadron of Japanese Bombers and a Mother Bomber that needs to be destroyed.
As in 1942, players pilot a P-38. Two buttons are used: one for regular attacks (with several weapons) and one for special actions that executes either a loop, like in 1942, or one of three special attacks that damage the plane. Unlike 1942, the player only has one life, with one refillable energy meter. Destroying a complete formation of red enemy planes will result in a power-up, such as a health boost or a temporary special weapon which replaces the default twin gun.
1943 Kai: The Battle of MidwayEdit
This version was ported by Naxat on the PC Engine as 1943 Kai. It was not available on the US TurboGrafx-16. The PC Engine port contains many additional levels and original music. The history of this game in PC Engine is same of the NES version, but your "biplane" is equipped during this action and his fight with new exclusive enemies and bosses. Though it was never released in the US in arcades, it was included in Capcom Classics Collection for PlayStation 2 and Xbox in 2005.
Arcade Version [1943 and 1943 Kai]Edit
Game Design: Poo & Dechikun
Producer: Kihaji.O
Character Design: Sato Chin, Miki Chan, Kawamovan, Aho no Sakata
Sound & Music: Jungle Kumi
Hard Ware: Panchi Kubozoo, Jumbo Saito
Special Thanks: Shinshuudon, Kokusho Savuri, Nanno Yamauchi, Phazer Tae 250R, Piihvara Yumi, Jogging, New Face Ichigo
Program: Blbon.
Presented by: Capcom
NOTE: Because the credits are unchanged for Kai, any and all new staff members are uncredited - which at the very least includes the six composers of the game's eight new tracks (as mentioned in Daimakaimura -G.S.M. Capcom 1-): Tamayo Kawamoto, Harumi Fujita, Junko Tamiya, Manami Matsumae, Takashi Tateishi and Hiroshige Tonomura.
Additionally, 1943, like many other games during this era of gaming, credited its staff in its default Score Ranking Table (the same table is also used for 1943 Kai), which is as follows:
- 1st 200000 TAE
- 2nd 150000 YAM
- 3rd 100000 POO
- 4th 70000 MR.
- 5th 50000 BLB

News UK journalists caused 'absolute mayhem' with digital data
News UK has clamped down on the digital data it releases to staff after misuse of the figures by journalists caused "absolute mayhem", according to Alan Hunter, the head of digital for The Times and The Sunday Times.
The Times: News UK title
Speaking at an Advertising Week Europe session on "next generation" technology, Hunter warned that great care has to be taken in the way figures on digital performance are explained to staff.
The Times and The Sunday Times have changed the way they brief staff on page impressions and video views and now give a single "gold standard" figure rather than allowing staff to put their own interpretation to the figures.
Hunter said: "We started to release figures of our video views and our page impressions to our journalists and while they are brilliant at many things, interpreting data is perhaps not at the top of their skill set.
"We had absolute mayhem for a while where they were all quoting different figures that suited their needs, as journalists can sometimes do. It was quite funny in a way, the number of different figures that get thrown around.
"So we are actually reducing them to a single gold standard so we don't have all these different views of the truth."

As painful as it was to watch, one unlucky couple had to be the first to get voted off Dancing with the Stars. So which season 13 dancing dup was booted out of the ballroom?
After an awkward opening cha-cha, Ron Artest -- now known as Metta World Peace -- and dancing pro Peta Murgatroyd couldn't summon enough votes to overcome their last-place finish from Monday night. But the Los Angeles Laker, who had announced he was dancing in honor of his cancer-surviving daughter Diamond, didn't seem too upset by the news.
"Who's coming with me?" he asked after his name was called. "Everybody give a round of applause to Peta -- she was awesome!"
Watch Ron's dancing highlights!
But the results were a close call for two other couples with mediocre first dances: Nancy Grace and Tristan MacManus and Rob Kardashian and Cheryl Burke rounded out the night's bottom three.
As to be expected after their rousing opening performance, Chaz Bono and Lacey Scwhimmer received the most applause when declared safe earlier in the evening. Although they finished in the middle of the pack, the support for the couple was undeniable.
Looking at next week, the best-positioned partners are J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff and Chynna Phillips anda Tony Dovolani, who finished at the top of the leader board. Who do you think will be the next couple eliminated from the competition? Which couple could go all the way?
Watch Ron Artest and Peta Murgatroyd's one-and-only dance below!

Congress to let the Lazarus provisions make it to the end of 2014? The White House's threat to veto the Senate's deal to permanently extend some of the perennially expiring tax provisions has killed that proposal. Now it looks like Congress will take up a bill to extend the provisions, which expired at the end of 2013, through the end of this year. That means we get to do this all over again next year. The Hill reports:
The vote on a short-term extension, expected as soon as this week, would come after a veto threat from President Obama derailed a developing $400 billion deal between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and House Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp (R-Mich.) that would have extended some expired tax breaks indefinitely, as well as others for two years.
Republicans on both side of the Capitol suggested the move showed that a one-year deal was the only proposal with a chance of becoming law.
The article says "practically all" of the provisions that expired at the end of 2013 will be included. The Lazarus provisions that will come back to life include, among many others:
– A $500,000 Section 179 deduction for asset purchases that would otherwise be capitalized and depreciated.
– 50% "bonus depreciation"
– The research credit
– The five-year built-in gain period.
– The allowance of tax-free distributions from IRAs to charities.
The full text of the bill is available here: (HR 5771)
So we will get a 2014 tax law just as 2014 comes to an end. Because there is no election, there is hope that we won't have to wait until December 2015 to know what the tax law is for 2015. Not exactly a shining moment in tax policy.
The bill also includes technical corrections for tax bills going back to 2004.
How the White House torpedoed Harry Reid's tax deal (The Hill)
TaxGrrrl has posted another installment of her interview with IRS Commissioner Koskinen. You may not be astounded to hear that he wants more money:
With spending cuts already taking a toll on taxpayer services, the agency is bracing itself for another tough season. In fact, Koskinen cites funding the IRS as his biggest challenge since taking office last December.
"It's a serious problem for us," he says. "I don't know who got our $500 million but I'll bet they're not gonna give you back the $2-3 billion we would have if we had it."
Given that the Congress has used the tax law as the Swiss Army Knife of public policy, with responsibilities including attempting to run the broken Obamacare machine, it's not unreasonable to think IRS has increased needs for funds.
That said, the Commissioner has nobody to blame but himself. His tone-deaf and confrontational tone with Republicans investigating the political abuse of the Exempt Organizations function has earned him no friends in the party that controls the purse strings. The sudden appearance of 30,000 Lois Lerner e-mails that he insisted could not be recovered killed any credibility he had left. Only a new commissioner has any hope of turning that around.
The Commissioner also says he has cut spending to the bone:
The agency is already down 3,000 employees last year. Another 2,000-3,000 are on their way out by the end of this year. The current rate of replacement is one new employee for every five employees who leave…
What gets cut next? The Commissioner is clear that it will be more personnel. That is, he noted, all that's left.
Well, maybe. I'd be more convinced of that if he decided there just wasn't enough cash lying around for his "voluntary" tax preparer initiative — a blatant attempt to get around the Loving decision shutting down mandatory preparer regulation.

Don't Miss HRC's Screening of Bridegroom
November 8, 2013 by Maureen McCarty, HRC Associate Director of Digital Media
On Thursday, November 14, HRC will host a screening of the powerful documentary, Bridegroom, along with a reception with film producer Shane Bitney Crone.
Bridegroom tells the emotional journey of Shane Bitney Crone and Tom Bridegroom, two young men in a loving and committed relationship that was cut tragically short by a misstep off the side of a roof. The story of what happened after this accidental death– of how people without the legal protections of marriage can find themselves completely shut out and ostracized– is poignant, enraging and opens a window onto the issue of marriage equality and human rights like no speech or lecture ever will.
The event will be held from 6:30 to 9 pm on Thursday, November 14 at the HRC building in Washington, D.C. RSVP today.

The Confessions of Max Tivoli
Andrew Sean Greer
Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Max Tivoli pops out of the womb looking like a 70-year-old man and grows backward from that point onward. Such is the weird premise of this well-crafted romantic novel set in San Francisco at the turn of the 20th century.
The Lady and the Unicorn
Tracy Chevalier
E.P. Dutton
Loosely based on a historical event, Chevalier transports her readers back in time to examine the circumstances surrounding the creation of a famous set of tapestries currently housed in the Cluny Museum in Paris. With each chapter narrated by a different character, the novel has been called (yeah, yeah—pun intended) a magnificent tapestry of words.
Bluffing Mr. Churchill
John Lawton
Atlantic Monthly Press
Set in London during the bloody mess of World War II, Lawton's latest spy novel is a prequel to his popular books starring the inimitable Inspector Troy. This time out Troy must track down an American spy operating undercover as an SS officer. Advance readers have said the book provides a spectacular literary recreation of London under siege.
Something Rising (Light and Swift)
Haven Kimmel
Free Press
In Kimmel's second novel, she gives us a slow-paced but well-crafted coming-of-age story about Cassie Claiborne, a young girl who learns to hustle in pool halls from the father who abandoned her and eventually grows into a tough and tameless young woman.

ROFL. I did this one on one of the other boards quite a while ago. We had a blast with it! It went on for ages, attracted people from all over iV, & created lots of fun discussion.
It started when I was having Physical Therapy for a problem with my shoulder. I didn't have full range of motion & was having great difficulty & pain reaching behind my back to hook my bra, until a therapist asked me, "Why don't you just hook it in the front, then twist it around?" D'oh! That had never occurred to me, b/c I had NEVER done it that way. LOL. I'm still doing it that way b/c I never got my full range of motion back. :o( So I'm the one who answered Other.
|Wed, 06-29-2005 - 10:51am
now i hook in the front. always used to hook in the back till i hurt my rotor cup.
i do go bra less arround home sometimes.when i do it is like the town issues a bulitin. people come over on those days.really am too big to be going bra less. really noticeable.but you get those shoulder marks and need a break.
it is like when you are still in your jammies. nobody shows for a week , untill you are in your jammies
|Wed, 06-29-2005 - 10:54am
same with me katz. shoulder injury.i had always done it frome the back too.a couple of times my shoulder popped and now i do it from the front.i am considering a front closing bra.but i still consider those for old people and am not ready yet.
|Wed, 06-29-2005 - 10:56am
Ouch! Rotary cuff injuries can be bad. Did you have PT or surgery? I guess you didn't get your full range of motion back either, huh?
Yup. It's true. I occasionally get caught in my jammies on weekends, cause I sleep late, then sit down w/coffee & the newspaper, & don't get dressed til I'm done the whole paper, if even then. LOL

It's time to point out a little-known feature in Chrome's omnibox that may save you a tap or two. If you're looking for something on the page you're currently viewing, rather than tapping on your overflow or menu button, going to "find in page" and typing your search string, you can do it via Chrome's omnibox as shown below. Take a look at the first option with the magnifying glass inside the box.
You can finally say goodbye to that desktop Music Manager app for Google Play Music. Well, as long as you don't mind venturing into the Play Music labs. Google has added a new Chrome app toggle in the labs that enables drag-and-drop music uploads and a cool little pop-out player interface.
Just head to the labs page and enable "Google Play Music for Chrome" and save your changes. Chrome will download the extension, and then you can drag any compatible song files into the Play Music window to upload.
Artist Janet Echelman builds giant, living sculptures that respond to the elements around them. These massive works of art typically sway in the wind, flow with the water, or respond to light. This time, Echelman's work is interacting with Chrome. Her piece, built in collaboration with Google Creative Director Aaron Koblin, now descends over water and walkways from a Vancouver skyscraper, changing color in response to the input it receives from visitors on the ground.
Do you want to show your support of both Google Now and Google Chrome? Do you need some kind of cotton garment to cover the space between your neck and your waist? Do you have twelve bucks? Then T-shirt seller Qwertee's daily sale is for you. Today Qwerty is offering the C-REX design from Marco Pedrazzolli. The background is taken straight from the default mountain view in the Google Now app, and the little T-Rex in the foreground should be familiar to anyone who's had problems connecting to a page in Chrome.
If you're not in the market for a T-shirt, Marco was kind enough to upload his design to both Dropbox and Google Drive in a staggering array of resolutions that should fit just about any mobile screen, laptop, or desktop.
Update: Google says Now is coming to the beta channel this week, but it is already showing up for us on some machines.
Google Now is one of Android's central features these days, but we've known for a long time that Google was planning to bring it to Chrome on the desktop too. The feature first broke cover in the Chrome canary build, which is a standalone pre-dev version of the browser.
Now you can play with Lego blocks on any device that supports Google's web browser of choice just by visiting the Build with Chrome website. Why? Because building things with blocks is fun. It's a task so intuitive that even babies can grasp it without being directed, and regardless of how old you are, the fun just doesn't go away. The tools may change, but the core concept doesn't need much in the way of innovation.
