A good hand cream for my dry hands, good size for my make-up purse, and a divine fragrance. Can't get enough of it. It smells like a magnolia flower -- so fresh.
Love this!

This is a wonderful cream that smells refreshing and quickly soaks in. Keep in mind when ordering that this is the smaller size suitable for travelling or keeping in your purse. I will definitely reorder this in the larger tube.

Cook's Fortitude Impresses Moores
England coach Peter Moores has been highly impressed by Alastair Cook's fortitude to lead his team out from a slump towards victory.
Moores believes the tough tide that Alastair Cook encountered in recent times can forge him to become something special.
Moores praised his skipper's resilience to overcome criticism and leading his team with an example.
"He's one of those characters who, the more criticism he gets, the more determined he becomes," Moores told journalists at a press conference ahead of the fifth Test.
"He just gets steelier. He would openly admit that he's had a really tough ride. But that often can forge somebody into something special," he added.
Moores also admired the way Cook handled pressure, when his position as a captain was questioned after defeat at Lord's. By then, Cook had led England without a win in 10 Test matches which included seven defeats.
Despite the criticism he faced from ex-England skippers Michael Vaughan and Sir Ian Botham, Cook made his intentions clear to continue leading his team in the future.
"The significant point came when he made it clear he was in it for the long haul. He made it clear he wanted to do the job. If other people didn't want him, then fine, he'd move on, but he made public his desire to captain England.
"He just said that he was going to give it everything he's got and he still has the same approach now."
Cook's miserable run with the bat added further pressure on him as a player. Fortune smiled on Cook at Southampton, when he was dropped by Ravindra Jadeja while batting on 15. He went on to score 95 runs while laying the groundwork for a massive 266-run victory.
England carried on the confidence from Southampton to Manchester, where they crushed the visitors by an innings and 54 runs on day three of the Test match.
Moores lauded his skipper for leading his team by example and using ingenious tactics which helped his side take a 2-1 lead in the ongoing series.
"He is developing quickly as a captain tactically and has great values to lead with from example," Moores, in his second spell as England coach, said of his skipper.
The fifth and final Test match of the series will begin on Friday 15th August at The Kia Oval, London.

PrincessKsmom - wishing you all the best with the upcoming tests. Glad your dad is home from the hosp. too. I am sure that is so much less stress for you and your family.
Peg - hope your symptoms have subsided or are at least bearable.
Linda and fortwildernesishome - gasp! Ds1 says he is not gong to play in the baseball league. He said he is going to do snme new basketball league instead. I dont think its because he does not love baseball, its some "politics" going on within one of the teams I think Sadly that team which ds is not on has players from our church and they have not included ds or asked him to try out and picked someone else who really wouldnt be an asset to the team probably as much as ds would. Also I think the team he was on with his friend, I think his friend probably is not going to be playing so I really dont know how many players he knows on that team etc.
Well yest it was snowing here and today its sunny and the birds are singing and now Mon. its suppose to snow again
Also just got a nice discount code from southwest, looked at the flights, hmm, if dh is unavailable maybe I will just go with ds3 in May or early June since you have to use it by June 8th.
My R hip/leg is really bothering me. Oh well, another day and another dr.

Greetings from beautiful southern California! We've been here at DL for a few days now, it's sooooo nice! The weather is beyond perfect, and even though it is Spring break, it's really not too bad crowd wise. I love it here!
We will be here two more days and then head down to SanDiego. it sure is going to be hard to go back to the cold and snow at home......I keep telling DH that I'm just gonna stay here.
Can't respond to everyone right now, but I hope everyone is doing well. GAGWTA!

Greetings ladies! I know I have been MIA - between cancer appointments, trying to work, and the family seems like my life is on hold. I barely get through the day sometimes. I think the job is going to go soon. Probably another month and I will go out on disability. I hate to do it but I need the energy for other things - like fighting the cancer. I figure I will wait until my scans are done and see if the cancer is improving. If so, we'll contine with the Cis/Gemzar and I don't think I can keep working through much more of this. The week with both chemicals just wipes me out for days.
Going on my bucket list trip to China this week. So looking forward to it. Hoping that I can get enough protein into me to keep fluids in my cells and blood vessels where it belongs and drop the swelling in the legs and feet. Right now it is pretty painful to walk. I am bringing a cane with me to help me with getting up and down. But no thoughts of cancelling the trip! I always think of LMP's husband's trips to China and how they aggravate her! It is a long way to go and he does it fairly often. I will let you all know how my trip of a lifetime goes.
Peg, glad you got settled into a wig. My hair has thinned considerably but I am still just wearing a short do and it looks OK. I am trying to avoid the wig because of the itching and heat. I have it ready to go if needed but am hoping that I will either keep what I have for hair or just go natural and bald.

Cheryl - have a wonderful time in sunny Ca. I cant wait to here all about your trip!
Pats Mom - so gad to hear from you. Sorry the chemo is exhausting you and dealing with the side effects. Its so wonderful that you are going on your trip this week. Please be prepared. Can your dr. give you some antibiotics to take with you as a precaution. The health care there is spotty etc. You have to ask to go to a good hospital if need be. Also I would def. take some protein foods that you like, protein bars, peanut butter, nuts etc. Whatever you can tolerate. Unless you want some yummy bugs on a stick. Are you going with a tour group or by yourselves? I know the ds had a tour guide but were not with a group. You just book them for the day etc. I hope you have a wonderful time and enjoy every minute of it. Cant wait to hear all about it when you get back sista.
Peg - heard about the terrible weather yest. Were you affected? Heard Disney is also at a level 3 in MK before. Crowded

PatsMom, Have an amazing time!
LuvMaryPoppins, The weather here yesterday was crazy! There was a lot of damage in Windermere. Many trees are down. It was pretty scary. My poor dog was totally freaked out. The weather service is trying to decide if it was a tornado or straight line winds. Either way, it was extreme.
I heard Magic Kingdom was packed today. What a difference a week makes. Some friends were here last week and said the wait times were nothing.

marypoppins-sorry about your son giving up baseball.....hopefully he has lots of fun playing basketball! I think the older they get, the harder it can be to be a part of a team.
Patsmom- I hope you have a WONDERFUL trip to China!!!! I have a cousin that lives in Beijing.....its an amazing country!
Peg-hope your treatment is going well and that your wig fits good/is comfortable. Like I wrote before, I had to go back to the wig shop a few times to get the fit just right, but once I did, I could almost forget I was wearing a wig.

Hi there ladies!
Cheryl only been home a month but I am jealous!! lol... went to the garden center and they had giant redwoods for sale! I had no idea they would grow here, but apparently there are lot's in the Vancouver area that are getting pretty big now, so I had to get one! I pity the people who have this place after us in 30 or however many years we make it!! I am pretty sure it would cover our whole lot eventually!
Patsmom, I hope your trip goes smoothly and you have a wonderful time!
LMP, I sure hope your hubby and son had decent weather when they were here! March can be such a horrible month, but the last week or bit more has been glorious! lot's of sun and temperatures was up to 60 here today, lot's of flowers blooming. That ferry to the Island is a long one, we have not been there in years because it is also very expensive! We have another ferry from Vancouver over here to where we are, so for a return trip over to Vancouver Island for us is over $200. We can drive nearly to Disneyland and back for that!!
Peg my stomach issues were really a problem for me with my chemo. I have another illness to begin with, and have had multiple surgeries for it. They had me on intravenous meds for my acid reflux, one pill they ended up giving me was something they had to get special athority from the medical people to use because it is so expensive. sadly it didn't really help, but I made it through and you will too.
Disneydazed, I will keep you in my prayers, I really hope you get an answer and some relief soon!
It's funny how you forget things...I had forgotten all about how my scalp hurt when my hair came out! but yes it did. And Princessksmom, I hope you get good news and soon!

smiley - that redwood tree sounds awesome
Laurie - I thought of you because my ds is bound and determined to have that fish tank. I told him to please stop buying supplies and study. Ds3 is in on this too so it does not help.
Pats mom - hope you have a wonderful trip. Cant wait to hear about it
Cheryl - hope your trip is going well. I saw some pictures of the crowds in Disneyland and it looked pretty crowded.
Well I am thinking of May 23-30 for Disney or somewhere around that time, maybe sooner. Dh has so much traveling to do. Now he is not going to China but Russia, Cali etc. I think he could use a vacation,even though he doesnt enjoy Disney all that much.

Feralpeg, have the symptoms subsided some?
PrincessKsmom, good luck with your visit Monday. Please let us know how it goes.
Cheryl, it sounds like your trip was wonderful. Glad you enjoyed it so much.
Patsmom, I hope your trip to China is everything you have dreamed of. Who are you going with again? My memory is terrible.
Smilie_face2, how you get that giant redwood home, girl?
LMP, maybe we will get to meet up in Disney? I will send you a pm. I am taking DD17 and her girl friend to tea one day. I thought about how much fun we had when we celebrated your birthday with the tea 2 years ago. You should join us. I will try and find my reservation and figure out what day it is. We are staying at the Boardwalk again. I love the Boardwalk view.
I am sorry you are having second thoughts about the aquarium. Is it a large tank? Hard to move these guys, even without the water they are just plain heavy. But the bigger the tank, the easier to keep it clean once the natural environment is established. Is there a reputable local fish keeping store there? One thing you don't want is to get stuck with it when your DS move out. Don't make the mistake I made when DS 22 got her half chow puppy in the spring of her HS senior year. Now she is "our" dog.
We are barbecuing steaks tomorrow for a family Easter get together. Nice weather, have to make the most of it before it gets too hot hot hot.
I have had to replace pretty much my entire wardrobe with my weight
loss. After 3 months on it, I have a different "foot print." Unfortunately my cholesterol only went dow 3 points. I pushed off my next doctor appointment to late June. I am staying on the diet about another month, then continue exercising, maybe the doc will be satisfied with my cholesterol then.
It is hard to keep on this diet with all the food choices here. I am plugging along though. It helps that I have to include 4 cups of low carb veggies a day, and I can have 8 ounces of meat and seafood per day. I make that 8 ounces count with steak, really good fish, shrimp and crawfish. Nothing friend, but then I am not a big fried food person anyway.
I am going to a wedding tonight though. Food at wedding receptions in New Orleans is usually quite good and over the top rich. I will spend my time visiting the relatives I guess.
Easter candy I navigated by buying a lot and mailing most of it off to DD22 and her boyfriend's mom. Sprung for the "good stuff" and enclosed a whole lot of gold brick Easter eggs that I think is only available in south Louisiana. Just kept a few for DD17 and DS24 who came in last night. DD17 won't eat much (she is officially a vegan, but those gold bricks are very tempting).
Can't have Easter without chocolate, but I won't have any this year. I am thinking about squirreling away some in the freezer but I will have to hide wisely. I tried to deep six a box of girl scout cookies but they were discovered.
Saved me I guess.

Hi, everyone! The past couple of weeks have been crazy. A friend Kendall met in the UK came to stay with us for two weeks. Any other time, that would have been great. It was difficult. He came in the day I had my last infusion. It was kind of hard being pleasant when I really didn't feel that well. He left on Wednesday, so I'm taking advantage of the peace and quiet to just veg!
My stomach is still giving me fits. I'll go for a day or so with no problem and then it really acts up. I'm seeing the oncologist on Tuesday, so I'll talk to him about it.
The weather here has been all over the place. Last week it was really chilly. Today, it is almost 80. These changes are not good for my sinus! It looks like the chilly weather will soon be a thing of the past and I'll be complaining about the heat. Not that it makes a whole lot of difference. I'm not getting out that much anyway!
Hope you all have a terrific Easter!

Nothing new to report. Met with the oncologist/breast doctor today. He read the report which contradicted itself and said right side AND left side. Nice to know people aren't paying attention. I reassured him it was the left side. He said he didn't think it was anything to be concerned with, but agreed a sonogram guided biopsy was the best choice. I asked about the asymmetry. He said he didn't feel anything during the exam, and said maybe after the biopsy he'll recommend and MRI just to have another look at it. Next step I call on Wed to schedule the biopsy. Not looking forward to it but will be happy when I have a definite answer. Any idea how long it usually takes to get the biopsy results back?

PatsMom, your trip sounds amazing, I hope you are having a great time!
Smiley, did you get your tree planted yet? That sounds like such an interesting thing to find, so unusual! Are they fast or slow growing trees?
LMP, have you finalized your dates for Disney yet? Sounds like your DH is always so busy, it must be hard to make plans too far into the future.
Snappy, congrats on the new wardrobe! You have some amazing willpower to pass up chocolate......good for you!
Peg, sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your stomach. I did too, there just didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason. Hang in there, it will get better.
PrincessK, that's good that you are going ahead with the biopsy - always best to know for sure! And keep in mind that most biopsies (80%, I think) come back negative.
I hope everyone had a nice Easter. We returned home from our vacation about 3am on Sunday morning....it was a late flight to begin with, but then of course it got delayed! Oh well, no matter, we had a great time at Disneyland, and San Diego was awesome! Busy, busy, busy! I have a million pictures to go through, will try to post some with more details in a few days.
I went for my two month CT scan right before we left, and go to the oncologist tomorrow for the results. At my last two month check up, my tumor marker numbers had gone up quite a bit more, so I'm prepared to hear bad news. Seems like I've been getting lucky for quite awhile now......just waiting for the other shoe to fall.

Now I know what to do with my extra PVC pipe.

While it is true that you are beautifully hot, watching you self fuck your gorgeous sweet ass and knowing that you are capable of self sucking yourself off - I wonder if you are short changing yourself? No pun intended, you are the epitemy (sp) of self service? Is no one capable or wearthy of satisfying your sexual needs?

Game of Thrones Review: 'Til Lust Do Us Partby Chris O'Hara at . Comments
Everyone loves a wedding, right?
Well, it wasn't exactly Kate and William, but Sansa and Tyrion's big day took center stage this week on "Second Sons."
Sansa, dutiful as ever, put on a good face, but having Joffrey be the one to walk her down the aisle just added insult to emotional injury. Poor girl, not only were none of her family there, there wasn't even the slightest hint of a wedding march. Unfortunately for Tyrion, most of his house was there, including his father who tried to put a stop to his son's fun to insure his offspring didn't drink away his ability to consummate the marriage.
Both he and Sansa are unwilling pawns, thrown together in a fight for position in the great game of power. Tyrion certainly had no delusions about his role at this point, but still showed his big heart when he tried to lessen Sansa's dread before the ceremony.
You won't be a prisoner after today, you'll be my wife. | permalink
He of course immediately acknowledged how that wasn't necessarily an improvement. The self-proclaimed "god of tits and wine" drinks so much because he can't stand the world around him or his role in it. There wasn't enough wine in the Seven Kingdoms that could help him get over how unfair a situation this was for both of them, not to mention just how young Sansa is.
So in the end he passed out and showed what a stand up guy he is. He may have also restored Shae's faith in him, as had a look of delight on her face when she saw the bedsheets were unmarred. I loved how she came barging into the bed chamber with no regard for how loud she was being, no doubt trying to stir her lover's looming hangover out of spite.
Back in the forest, Arya had a chance to make sure The Hound never saw the dawn of another day, but the threat of two broken hands if she failed to deliver a death blow proved a bit too daunting. She soon learned Sandor might not just be as bad a man as she had thought. She was shocked to learn of his plans to return her to her family. Sure, he wants a reward for doing so, but as he is no longer Joffrey's attack dog, he showed not every ounce of decency has been beaten out of him just yet.
He did indeed save one Stark daughter and is now trying to deliver a second to salvation.
After being taken captive himself, Gentry was just waiting for the other shoe to fall as Melisandre rolled out the Red Witch carpet for him upon returning to Dragonstone. I had thought the whole point to her buying the bastard son of Robert was to impregnate herself with a royal heir because Stannis had not been up to the task. Instead, she seemed more fixed on making him a sacrifice, perhaps some kind of black magic Viagra to help Stannis get his sword up. Thanks to Davos's council, I think Stannis convinced Melisandre to use the leaches in lieu of the blade.
The bloodletting would allow Stannis to show his old friend what Melisandre had showed him, while also sparing the young man who was of his own blood.
Stannis got real deep while visiting Davos in his cell. While I admire Stannis's faith in his one true god, anyone who has ever been to a Phish show can tell you that seeing visions in flames is not proof of anything real. Then he went on about how we don't choose our destiny and all. Where he may have gotten a little ahead of himself was when he rhetorically asked what one bastard boy's life is worth when matched against the fate of an entire kingdom. Jon Snow may have had something to say about that - and very well might still.
There seemed to be a number of possible little hints about other story lines this week, like the one just mentioned. Was it just a coincidence that the story Davos was trying to sound out and read was that of Dany's ancestor and his dragon? I don't think so, nor do I think it was chance that the sentence he read described how even the smallest of dragons can eventually swallow a horse whole.
Dany we know, can read and speaks several languages. Missandei funnily enough did point out how her Dothraki accent needed some work, but she also praised Dany's fluency in High Valyrian. I couldn't help but think of Talisa's fondness for corresponding in the same language.
Daario Naharis certainly spoke to Dany unlike any man has since the passing of Khal. She seemed taken with him from their first encounter. Ignoring the crude comments and advances of Mero, she seemed very interested in how Daario had risen in rank so fast at such a young age, not unlike her own ascent to power. There most certainly was some chemistry there, even if Dany didn't leave much left to be uncovered. I cannot wait to see how it plays out.
I just knew that obsidian dagger Samwell found was going to be important. It remains to be seen if it was forged in the fires of a dragon or Hell itself, but it most certainly was effective against the white walker. But then the daft fool goes and leaves it on the ground as he and Gilly made a run for it. That fumble was most deserving of an ESPN "C'mon Man!"
No sign of Jamie, Jon, Bran or Robb this week, but there was little room in the hour for their story lines, especially when you had Tyrion and his sister just owning every scene they were in.
Cersei: If you ever call me sister again ill have you strangled in your sleep. | permalink
However, Lady Olenna trying to make sense of all the changes to their collective family trees at the wedding reception was possibly the funniest moment of the episode.
Joffrey cannot die soon enough and his performance tonight just added fuel to my fiery hatred for the little king. Taking the step ladder away from Tyrion was cold blooded and threatening Sansa just plain eee-vil.
Only two episodes left, I can't believe it. What arc are you most intrigued by at this point and who do you think we will see meet their demise before the end of Game of Thrones Season 3?
i cannot stand king" jeoffrey omg i wanna slap him..lol when he made that comment to her about coming into her room and having guards hold her down while he screws her..OMG i got so angry! lol
I'm quite often wondering why the hell Sansa behaves the way she does. For example when she didn't realize Tyrion couldn't throw the coat over her or her incapability to acknowledge his kindness towards her.
And then I remember she really is a little bird, just 14 years old, far away from her family and traumatized because of her father's death and everything Joffrey has done to her. Love her story arc!
Great episode! Darius is sooo handsome! I am glad they picked him... and Dany is so beautiful, she gets more wonderfl every episode. I am pretty sure that Robb Stark will meet an untimely end before too long, even though he has a lot of screen time, they don't really ever make him a character you could like or feel for in any way. Arya is such a little champion!! It was nice to have a break from the Theon torture scenes, and also a bit less of the wall for once. Did you notice the face in the tree that Sam and Gillie passed - I have a feeling this will definitely be back. Sam is seriously a dope, I don't believe he left the knife there! That original raven... was it the three eyed one?
I missed Jaime this week.. he for me has the most interesting arc...he started off as this douchey guy who pushed a kid out of a window.. to a prisoner.. to a man on the road to redemption... he surprises me every episode.. also, the hound and ayra are quite interesting to me.. mostly because I want to see her forgive him.. he's not really to blame for her father's death.. and there was nothing he could have done, and I think she knows that deep down... it would be interesting to see how those two play out
Nobody else just a little disturbed at the amount of rape in this programme? When its not happening, its being threatened.
I'd love to know how many of the creators or actors have ever been through that ordeal or whether they have any clue how perverse it is to make it such a major plotpoint.
It's rumored that one of the Throne actresses will no longer do nude scenes. Why? Some say it is Dany. Well unless that was a great body double, then we can say good bye to the mother of all dragon breasts. Although that was twice that Sansa Stark did not fully disrobe. Is there some bounderies thrones will not cross? Maybe Roz would not disrobe anymore and that was why she got the arrow. While I like nude scenes as much as the next guy, maybe a little less sexposition may mean a little more story time. And maybe the writers can stop mutilating guys penises. Poor Gentry just got to use it.
There is only one true king: Hodor.

WATERBURY — A 16-year-old boy who police say ran down and killed a 62-year-old father and husband on Monday has been charged with second-degree manslaughter and felony evading.
Ivan Rajcoomar, a maintenance worker at the Country Village Apartments, was struck by a 2003 Mazda driven by a 16-year-old who had taken the car from his mother without her permission, police said.

Get off your "high horse." Israel is no worse than we are
Israel has only existed since 1948. The whole movement did not even begin until after our own civil war. You know, when Lincoln murdered thousands of Americans to consolidate the power of the federal government. But, no, I guess America had no problems before Zionism. Give me a fucking break, you idiots.
If Zionists are in charge of everything, then thank God they took over because things are a lot better now in the US than they were 70 years ago. Japanese internment, forced confiscation of gold, the Tuskegee experiments, and Jim Crow laws to name a few examples of what used to be going on this country not that long ago. Israel is smaller than a Texas county. You're stupid if you think the Zionists are responsible for any of your problems. My problem is with my own government, not the world's smallest religion. If you think your problems are the cause of Zionists, you're either stupid or bigoted. America was the headquarters where the Zionists raised all their money to create Israel. America was the biggest factor influencing the creation of Israel, yet Israel controls America. You people are fucking stupid. San Bernardino County, California, is over twice the size of Israel. Yet, Israel controls the United States. You guys are just unbelievably ignorant. We live in a country where blacks are unbelievably discriminated against throughout the justice system. We make Israel look like a fucking utopia. The US had committed more war crimes in the past year than Israel could in the next thousand. I'm sick of Americans on the Daily Paul acting like they're "holier than thou" toward Israel. Get your own shit together. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks at Zionists.

The Venetian Resort-Hotel-CasinoLatest booking: 35 minutes ago There are 22 people looking at this condo hotel.
Large Room, Full Kitchen, Laundry Facilities in room, Patio, Walk-In Closet, Coffee Maker, Close to Strip, Cleanliness.
Major Complaint- Rock Hard Bed! Hair Dryer Broken, Drawers in Bathroom Broken.
the rooms were large and comfortable! transportation to the casinos, was free.
just to put something negative, I would say the pool was small !!
The location is excellent in a quiet area with many food choices & services nearby, The city center is less than 10 minutes drive. The staff are very helpful, would be an excellent choice for families.
-The rooms were not made up on the second day. -They charge you extra for the wifi & facilities although it was showing free on booking.com
Very good location close to the airport and close to everywhere we needed to go. Staff were friendly and courteous and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Pool area was great and my kids loved the little waterfall. Overall, this was a much better option for a family with young kids than staying in a casino resort.
Although I had a confirmed reservation with Booking.com, the Desert Paradise had no record of my arrival. The desk staff were great, but it took a few minutes to sort out and my family were tired and waiting in the car. Initially we were put into a suite right next to the main road which was extremely noisy, but the desk staff were able to relocate us to a quieter suite when I complained.
spa swimming pool kitchen location
huge rooms, plenty of space, full optionals, very quiet: perfect staying
Great size rooms. Pool fantastic. Free shuttle to strip Great quiet place to stay with kids.
Carpet a bit dirty
Staff, facilities
Too far from strip.
good location. clean room.
they are trying to trick you into a time share business model. terrible!!!!!
The peace of no daily housekeeping, noise or disturbance. Away from the Strip and the feeling of being at home.
Good room. Good Location if you like it close to the Strip but not loud!
They will try selling you on a time sharing subscription in a several hour presentation. Don't believe if the tell they only want to show you one of their other resorts in Las Vegas. THEY WILL TRY SELLING YOU SOME TIME SHARING SUBSCRIPTION!
Too hard sell on the timeshare
Nice and roomy appartment very well kept and cleaned. It has all the amenities needed . Its only a 10 minutes drive from the Strip. Helpfull and gentle staff. We will be back whenever in Vegas!
There are appartments close to Decatur blvd and if you want to sit outside in the evening ,it could be noisy.We had this, but we got another apt when we mentioned this .So execellent service!!
The location was perfect just a few miles off the Strip. Large airy rooms,fully equipped as a home from home. Very quiet even though there are two pools. Cannot recommend this accomodation enough.
The unit itself was good. Main bedroom is good
The location is all but a "Desert Paradise Resort". It is conveniently located on the intersection of 2 highways for whoever would want that.... not normal resort goers. Neighbors (related to some hillbilly) spilled gravy on common staircase and no staff to clean. 3 x double bunk in 2nd bedroom would be rather cramped for those who would need it
1. Wonderful Facility for the family and motor travellers
1. Far away from downtown Las Vegas
safe and cheap
too hot! the air conditioning is not very good
Our accommodations were perfect. Very family-friendly. A great place to see Las Vegas from.
Pushy concierge regarding a timeshare opportunity. One offer is enough, no pushing necessary.
The sence of privacy in all areas. I would like to share this experience with family of Air Force Academy cadets who travel past to visit the Academy. I wish I could tell them they would get a discount by mentioning the Academy. I visit every year.
I've stayed there for at least 10 years and I really dislike the new $10 fee recently added. The fee seems like a cheap trick.
This is your home away from home. Ever wonder what it would be like to LIVE in Vegas? This place is a close it it gets to that. Nice, roomy apartments, with all the amenities, minutes from the strip. Love it.
I liked the location off the strip but close to everything. Nice big unit with very comfortable bed. There were amenities, like the washer and dryer, I did not use but it was nice they were there should I need them. Big tub, two pools. All around a great place. I had a vehicle and got around on my own but shuttle service was available had I wanted it. Friendly staff that made me feel welcome. The covered parking was nice in the 100+ heat.
When I made the booking I did not realize I was booking into a time share. I was incessantly marketed by e-mail and telephone prior to my arrival. I had a unit right by the pool. Each afternoon about three or four o' clock, and lasting for several hours, they would crank up the hard driving music with a bass beat that permeated the walls. I would consider this a small nuisance that was only present because of the location of my unit. They really need a cutting board in the kitchen. That is my entire list of things I did not like.
Everything. This place is perfect. I was over for a friends wedding and they were all complaining as to how expensive there particular hotel was on the strip. Whilst Desert Paradise IS off the beaten track it is within easy access of the strip and Fremont street. The apartments were modern clean and had everything you would need for a brilliant holiday. The pool and jacuzzi area were perfect and I will return here very soon only this time for a lot longer
I didn't stay long enough

Tivoli Lodge
|#9 in Best Vail Hotels
|Hotel Class 4.0-star
|Critic Rating Good
|Guest Rating
U.S. News Review
Sitting at the heart of Vail — just a short walk from the Betty Ford Alpine Gardens — the Tivoli Lodge has stayed true to its mountain-chalet style since opening in 1968. Rooms exude a cozy ambience, thanks to rich leather furniture and dramatic mountain views (some of the rooms even feature fireplaces). Guests appreciate the strong attention to detail in terms of decor as well as customer service; many say that concierge and front-desk staff at this Gemstone Hotel went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. Guests also like that the buffet breakfast features new items every day, and the Brown Hound Lounge makes a great spot for après-ski drinks. However, if you're looking for a hot dinner spot, you'll have to find a restaurant off-site; thankfully, Tivoli Lodge sits at the heart of Vail, within walking distance of numerous eateries. And for most guests, the lack of an in-house eatery doesn't seem to be a problem: Recent visitors can't wait to go back.

The future of the Setanta Sports Cup competition was thrown into serious doubt last night after it emerged that Derry City have been dumped out of the All Ireland tournament.
Following a meeting yesterday between Derry City officials and the Setanta Sports Cup committee it is believed the Brandywell men were told that their place in the competition was being withdrawn.
Over the last few months Derry have been expelled from the League of Ireland and have also went into administration and it is understood that those are the reasons why the competition organisers have decided against inviting the new look Derry City back into the cup to fulfil the remaining fixtures, due to resume next month at home to Linfield.
Last week Linfield chairman Jim Kerr told the Belfast Telegraph that the Blues would not be travelling to the Maiden City for the February 27 Group B encounter.
Just where that leaves the competition remains to be seen, but with group matches still remaining before the semi-finals of this season's competition — which is due to be concluded with the final on May 15 — how it continues without one of the teams that was in at the start is a mystery.
All season clubs from both sides of the border have been complaining about the format of the tournament. Matches have been switched to Saturday afternoons and while it was hoped that would boost attendances and give the competition a higher profile it's a move that has failed miserably.
With Derry no longer in the competition there has to be serious doubts over weather the tournament can continue with clubs like Cliftonville, Coleraine, Glentoran and Sligo Rovers up in arms as their chance of progressing to the semi-final stages have all but ended because of the Candystripes' expulsion.
Linfield, who secured the inaugural title in 2005, drew 1-1 with Stephen Kenny's men last September, but neither side have played since in this year's competition, which incidentally was expanded to nine teams — to give the holders automatic entry — and comprised three groups of three.

I'm not too worried about the government watching me or us. Have you seen how piss-poor the government is at collecting and using data? Every government document I've ever received has some error in even basic information (e.g. how to spell my name).

So Wyden said he would lift his hold in exchange for a Senate floor vote on an amendment requiring the government to account for how many times Americans' communications have been accepted, and another amendment prohibiting U.S. spy agencies from reviewing the communications of Americans ensnared in the program.
If that doesn't go over, he'd lift the hold so the Senate could vote on brief extension of the act so his amendments and others could be fully debated next year.
"I'm willing to go along with a short-term extension as long as we have a chance in the early future, in 2013, to have a debate," Wyden said.
Well, Mr. Wyden, that's a rather abrupt and naive about-face.
One would almost suspect that something happened that you don't want to talk about, like a threatening visit in the night if you didn't back off.

Iron(II) chloride, also known as ferrous chloride, is the chemical compound of formula FeCl2. It is a paramagnetic solid with a high melting point, and is usually obtained as an off-white solid. FeCl2 crystallizes from water as the greenish tetrahydrate, which is the form that is most commonly encountered in commerce and the laboratory. There is also a dihydrate. The compound is also soluble in water; aqueous solutions of FeCl2 are yellow.
Hydrated forms of ferrous chloride are generated by treatment of wastes from steel production with hydrochloric acid. Such solutions are designated "spent acid," especially when the hydrochloric acid is not completely consumed:
The spent acid requires treatment before its disposal. It is also byproduct from titanium production, since some titanium ores contain iron.[2]
Laboratory preparation[edit]
Ferrous chloride is conveniently prepared by addition of iron powder to a solution of methanol and concentrated hydrochloric acid under an inert atmosphere. This reaction gives the methanol solvate, which upon heating in a vacuum at about 160 °C gives anhydrous FeCl2.[3] FeBr2 and FeI2 can be prepared analogously.
An alternative laboratory synthesis of FeCl2 entails the reaction of FeCl3 with chlorobenzene:[4]
- 2 FeCl3 + C6H5Cl → 2 FeCl2 + C6H4Cl2 + HCl
FeCl2 prepared in this way exhibits convenient solubility in tetrahydrofuran (THF), a common solvent for chemical reactions. In one of two classic syntheses of ferrocene, Wilkinson generated FeCl2 by heating FeCl3 with iron powder in THF.[5] Ferric chloride decomposes to ferrous chloride at high temperatures.
FeCl2 forms complexes with many ligands. It reacts with two molar equivalents of [(C2H5)4N]Cl to give the salt [(C2H5)4N]2[FeCl4]. Related compounds that can be prepared similarly include the [MnCl4]2−, [MnBr4]2−, [MnI4]2−, [FeBr4]2−, [CoCl4]2−, [CoBr4]2−, [NiCl4]2−, and [CuCl4]2− salts.[6]
Ferrous chloride has a variety of niche applications, but the related compounds ferrous sulfate and ferric chloride enjoy more applications. Aside from use in the laboratory synthesis of iron complexes, ferrous chloride serves as a reducing flocculating agent in wastewater treatment, especially for wastes containing chromate. It is the precursor to hydrated iron(III) oxides that are magnetic pigments.[2] Ferrous chloride is employed as a reducing agent in many organic synthesis reactions.
