Hey guys,
I'm using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express edition. As anyone here who manages these servers knows, it's not very easy to configure a backup from these servers as there's no Maintenance plans available [someone please correct me if I'm wrong, obviously]. But I'm wondering, would it be safe to backup these databases by simply backing up the %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1 folder containing the Data folder [where it appears the databases are kept]? Since NTBackup uses shadow copies I don't think I'd need to stop the service. I can if neccessary via a script that runs just before the backup does, and then restart it afterwords with another script [or script a stop service>backup>start service all in one script]. But back to the main point :D Would this work? I've transferred databases from that folder before to another server and had it work perfectly fine.

Can u suggest any other perennials that might work? Have full sun but not many deer problems. Thanks, Cindy in Maryland

Happy October! The 'cool' period is officially over for now as a significant warming trend is expected due to a growing surface high pressure and offshore flow for Southern California. This will continue through early next week before eventually cooling off again. Interior locations can expect temperatures to go into the triple digits (hottest should be Saturday), while the coasts will remain relatively cool (though there is a fire weather watch for most of the region as well as an heat advisory). For now, highs in the 90's/80's, lows in the 60's, light winds for the most part, and mostly clear skies.
9/25/14 Forecast
Hope everyone enjoyed the warmth the last few days in So Cal, because a cooling trend begins through early next week. Expect low clouds for the night into morning hours and maybe even a slight chance of drizzle Friday night into Saturday. Also, there is high surf expected for the Central Coast (North of Point Conception) for the west, northwest facing beaches that could have local sets up to 13 feet that will last through Friday morning. For now, highs in the 80's/70's (warmer today inland), lows in the 60's, light winds for the most part, and mostly clear/partly cloudy skies.
9/18/14 Forecast
I know everyone loved the heat the last week in SoCal, but now it's time for a cool down thanks to an upper low moving into our region today for significant cooling. The cooling should last through Sunday, before moving out of for high pressure early next week. Besides the cooling, there will be more clouds across the region, especially night into morning low clouds for the coast and near coastal areas which may even bring some chances of light rain (very low, but still better than nothing). For now, highs in the 80's/upper 70's, lows in the 60's, light winds for the most part, and mostly clear/partly cloudy skies.
9/11/14 Forecast
For those that thought that summer was over (even though it's not), high pressure will bring hot temperatures for Southern California today through early next week. Triple digits can be expected for the interior valleys and there may be some record-breaking temperatures for this time of year (notably Sunday being the hottest). Next week a cooling a trend should take place as the high pressure moves east. Highs in the 90's/upper 80's, lows in the 60's, light winds for the most part, and mostly clear skies.
9/4/14 Forecast
A weak trough of low pressure will bring below normal temperatures and morning clouds for the night into morning hours for the coasts and near coastal valleys until tomorrow before high pressure take over once again in Southern California. Interior locations will still see temperatures mostly in the 90's (possibly warmer) during the afternoon, while the coasts should still remain relatively cool. Another main weather story is that the monsoonal moisture will be impacting some part of SoCal with some isolated showers and thunderstorms for the San Bernadino Mountains and more southern mountain ranges and deserts. Otherwise, highs in the lower 90's/80's, lows in the 60's, light winds for the most part, and partly/mostly cloudy skies.
8/26/14 Forecast
Hope everyone enjoyed the last few cool days in Southern California as an expected warm up begins tomorrow with a building ridge of high pressure dominates the weather until early next week. Today will still be on the 'cooler' side of things, but expect less clouds at the coasts for the coming days. Hurricane Marie will provide some high surf, mostly for the South facing beaches, but other than that will not have a significant effect. After today, temperatures may reach triple digits inland (especially for Thursday). For now, highs in the 80's (cooler at coasts), lows in the 60's, light winds for the most part, and mostly clear skies.
8/22/14 Forecast
"Cooler" than normal temperatures are expected for Southern California as an upper level trough continues to dominate the weather. Tropical systems off the coast will impact the surf with local sets expected up to 9 feet, maybe even higher for Southern facing beaches (careful of rip currents) that will last though early next week. There will still be some low clouds for the coastal/near coastal areas for the night into morning hours. Early next week will see a warming trend as high pressure will build. For now, highs in the 80's/70's, lows in the 60's, light winds for the most part, and mostly clear skies

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

|With her friends fallen, Maka must find the strength to face the Kishin alone. The world is in jeopardy and evil is poised for certain victory - until something stirs deep inside the young Meister's heart.
|Kishin Asura! I hope you're ready. YOUR SOUL IS MINE!!!
—Maka Albarn
Maka and Soul return from Soul's mind, Maka having successfully rescued Soul from Little Ogre's influence. They see their friends defeated and Asura still stands, and prepare to fight Asura and at long last save the world from his madness. Maka for the first time utilizes her most powerful technique, Kishin Hunter, in an attempt to kill him - but it does not work, Asura claiming the reason being that it is a move based around destroying evil, and the madness that inhabits him is not truly evil.
After her technique fails, Maka is left at Asura's mercy as he launches a blast at her. Soul puts himself in front of Maka to protect her, but is left unconscious from the blast and unable to continue fighting with her. Asura then launches a blast at Soul to kill him after he is left unconscious, but Maka shields him. She is knocked down from the blast, but activates the weapon blood inside herself to get back up.
She starts battling Asura using her weapon blood, most likely coming from her father. In order to avoid feeling pain, she fights him unconsciously. Scythes emerge from her body as she battles, and she finally begins to start hurting Asura. However, he eventually manages to see through her plan of fighting him unconsciously - and snaps her hip to make her conscious again.
Meanwhile, Crona, Death, Sid, Spirit, and the others watch her battle from Death's chamber, hoping in her that she will still find a way to win. Crona states that Kishin Hunter isn't what Maka needs to defeat Asura, and hopes that she will realize what she really needs.
As Asura taunts Maka, who is the only one still standing but barely, Black Star, Kid, and Soul manage to put encouraging words in to her while lying unconscious. After their words, Maka states that she is not worried, which puts Asura into a mess of confusion. She finally realizes what she needs to defeat him; Asura, being the embodiment of fear and madness, can be defeated simply by bravery, by proving she is not afraid even in the most horrifying circumstances. Her courage and determination despite how grim her chances of victory look drives Asura confused, and he tries one last time to kill her with all of his attacks. He fails as she avoids them all and delivers a powerful punch to his face, which to his great surprise, is strong enough to crack his face and cause him to explode.
Before Maka defeats him, Asura states another Kishin will arise one day to take his place and reign terror and insanity upon the world. Kid is also concerned about this, but Maka states that all people have bravery within them, and as long as there are people brave enough to stand up against those with evil intentions, they have nothing to worry about.
Manga and Anime Differences
- In the Manga, the Kishin Hunt is what is needed to defeat Asura (along with Crona's sacrifice). However according to the Anime, Asura has become too powerful to be defeated by the Kishin Hunt. It is Maka Albarn who personally channels her courage into her fist which causes him to explode.
- According to the manga, Asura is still alive on The Moon with Crona under all the Black Blood. While the anime states that Asura was destroyed by the explosion after Maka punched him.
- Soul Evans, Death the Kid, Black☆Star, Tsubaki Nakatsukasa, Elizabeth Thompson, and Patricia Thompson takes part in helping Maka defeat Asura in the manga. While in the anime, Asura had already defeated them, thus only leaving Maka to fight and defeat him.
- Justin Law is killed by Marie and Franken Stein during the final battle on the moon in the manga because he became evil, but since Justin doesn't turn evil in the anime he lives.
- Crona is pardoned for betraying Shibusen and is allowed back as a student, unlike what happened to him/her in the manga's ending.
- Joe Buttataki is alive at the ending of the anime, unlike his fate in the manga where he dies at the hands of Justin Law.
- Death doesn't die at the end of the anime, unlike his fate in the manga.
- Because Death lives in the end of the anime, Death the Kid doesn't become the next Shinigami.
- Marie doesn't get impregnated by Stein at the end of the anime, verses what happened in the final chapter of the manga.
- At the end of the manga, the Witches and Shibusen end their war and Death the Kid vows never to make anymore Death Scythes, but in the anime that never happens.
- Which means that Shibusen and the witches are still at war with each other.
- Angela Leon in the manga's ending is under the care of Shibusen after the death of Mifune, however Mifune lives at the end of the anime. Thus Mifune is one who continues to raise her under his care.
- Mosquito and Giriko are alive by the end of the anime, but they are killed in the manga.
- In the anime, Mosquito doesn't use his additional Form from 200 years ago, Form from 400 years ago, and Form from 800 years ago from the manga.
- According to the anime, Maka has her own weapon form. This isn't shown in the manga.
- In the closing credits, after being allowed to return to Shibusen as a student Crona is seen in Maka and Soul's apartment. This hints that Crona moved in with them.
- Mifune keeps his promise to Tsubaki, by becoming a teacher at Shibusen.

There have been more than 100 murders of journalists in Colombia since 1980 - and the situation is getting worse, according to a report by Fundación para la Libertad de Prensa (FLIP). From January to June 2006, FLIP recorded 72 events it categorised as press freedom violations, compared to 48 for the same period in 2005. In that period, one journalist was assassinated, one was abducted and four were forced into exile. (Via IJNET.org)

A Canadian individual who is transferred to the United States may be exposed to US estate, gift or generation-skipping transfer tax (collectively, transfer taxes). The exposure depends on whether the individual is regarded for transfer tax purposes as a US resident or a non-resident alien. Criteria for determining residency for US transfer taxes differ from those for determining residency for US income taxes.
Key aspects of transfer taxes are discussed below and summarized in Table 1 on page 3. All dollar amounts are in US currency.
An individual will be considered a US resident for transfer tax purposes if he or she is domiciled in the United States. A person acquires domicile in the United States by both:
Domicile is a subjective test because it depends on an individual's intent to remain in the United States. Courts and commentators have developed some objective criteria to help determine whether the intent necessary to establish domicile is present. These criteria include:

No man is happy without a delusion of some kind. Delusions are as necessary to our happiness as realities.Christian Nestell Bovee
The ignorant mind, with its infinite afflictions, passions, and evils, is rooted in the three poisons. Greed, anger, and delusion.Bodhidharma
Delusion arises from anger. The mind is bewildered by delusion. Reasoning is destroyed when the mind is bewildered. One falls down when reasoning is destroyed.Bhagavad Gita
Affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion.Jim Rohn
Money, again, has often been a cause of the delusion of the multitudes. Sober nations have all at once become desperate gamblers, and risked almost their existence upon the turn of a piece of paper.Charles Mackay
It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.Carl Sagan
Great cataclysmic things can go by and neither the orchestra nor the conductor are under the delusion that whether they make this or that gesture is going to be the deciding factor in how it comes out.James Levine

It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.Leo Tolstoy
One of the greatest delusions in the world is the hope that the evils in this world are to be cured by legislation.Thomas Brackett Reed
A man sufficiently gifted with humor is in small danger of succumbing to flattering delusions about himself, because he cannot help perceiving what a pompous ass he would become if he did.Konrad Lorenz
A nation is a society united by a delusion about its ancestry and by common hatred of its neighbours.William Ralph Inge

Delusions of grandeur make me feel a lot better about myself.Lily Tomlin
The idea that all the people locked up in mental hospitals are sane while all the people walking about are mad is merely a literary cliche, put about by people who should be locked up. I assure you there is not much in it. Taken as a whole, the sane are out there the sick are in here. For example you are in here because you have delusions that sane people are put in mental hospitals.Tom Stoppard
RATIONAL, adj. Devoid of all delusions save those of observation, experience and reflection.Ambrose Gwinett Bierce
DELUSION, n. The father of a most respectable family, comprising Enthusiasm, Affection, Self-denial, Faith, Hope, Charity and many other goodly sons and daughters.Ambrose Gwinett Bierce
Nothing sedates rationality like large doses of effortless money. After a heady experience of that kind, normally sensible people drift into behavior akin to that of Cinderella at the ball.Warren Buffett
Well, love is insanity. The ancient Greeks knew that. It is the taking over of a rational and lucid mind by delusion and self-destruction. You lose yourself, you have no power over yourself, you can't even think straight.Marilyn French
A dream with courage is innovation...A dream without courage is a delusion.Unknown
Speech is often barren; but silence also does not necessarily brood over a full nest. Your still fowl, blinking at you without remark, may all the while be sitting on one addled egg; and when it takes to cackling will have nothing to announce but that addled delusion.George Eliot

|**Posted this in Kitchens and realized it most likely should have been placed here**
We are about to break ground on a new house - this is the first time we have built a home - and will be the house we raise our 2 younger (8 & 10 yo) kids and ultimately retire in over the next 7 - 8 years. We just sold our 1935 Tudor in our old neighborhood in anticipation of building our new home two lots down the street - we love the area and street just wanted the construction and layout and square footage a new house will afford us. So we bought a neighbor house and torn it down. The house will be around 5500 Sq with an open layout on the main floor - kitchen open to great room and dining area. We are not adamant chefs - just a family of 4 that needs the space - and do want a nice kitchen with a large eat around island for family time with our young sons.
I am not all about 'labels' or 'brands' - just looking for appliances that will both look nice and perform well for years to come - would rather spend the $$ for reliance vs a trophy appliance. Just trying to avoid repairs and needing to replace appliances in the first 10+ years if possible.
Would like to get some unfiltered feedback - our main cooking will be just with a range - we don't cook enough nor does the kitchen layout lend itself to wall ovens etc.
So here goes - in the kitchen
Game room - entertainment area/wet bar for the kids
Laundry- LG Front Load washer and dryer - DLEX3470V
Putting together a full package with AJMadison that is saving us a bunch of $$ from local retailers - we are right at $20K for the whole batch all in - shipping and no tax
Any thoughts or anything that jumps out that we should either not consider or substitute?
Follow-Up Postings:
|This is an odd combination of high end and low end appliances.
You state that you are not adamant chefs but are spending a massive premium for a dual fuel range to get an electric oven, which makes up almost half your budget.
For 99% of people a good gas oven works just as well, much cheaper ,and much cheaper to operate.
If getting an American Range the Performer Series is the one to get. And you can upgrade your game room beverage center to Liebherr and get a much quieter fridge as a result. Plus upgrade your dishwashers.
If the purpose of the dual fuel is because a self-clean oven is an absolute must I would look at Capital Culinarian. Save over $1k for that Liebherr beverage center or upgraded dishwashers. Plus get a motorized rotisserie in your oven.
I love my Liebherr All-Refrigerator.
I love my Sharp MW drawer.
I would absolutely go to your local VAH dealer and see how you clean the hood. Some people like the newer design and some think it is a major PITA to clean.
If looking at low end VAH I would get Best or Kobe.
There is a laundry forum with experts on those appliances. I don't like LG because of how their customer service deals with recalls and defective machines that should be recalled but are not and their habit of telling customers with problem machines to pound sand.
I would look into the new GE RightHeight laundry. Made in the USA and benchmarked to all the currently USA available laundry machines. If you are not comfortable buying first generation appliances and want something more tried and true I would get the equivalent Samsungs.
|Regarding the range, as mentioned above, this is almost half your budget.
Is your heart set on American Range? Will you get serviced in your area?
Must you have DF and how often will you use the oven?
Does a split gas rangetop w/ electric wall oven appeal to you?
Switching the range could leave room in the budget for upgrades (the DWs and game room frig)
A 36 in oven is large and will take time to warm up. Leaving you with no smaller side oven or wall oven.
Suggestions: for 5500Sq home a 48in all gas range or gas range top w/ double electric wall oven, upgrade dw to Miele, upgrade game room frig.
I believe from your list, high and low end appliances mixed do not disturb you. I hope others chime in and offer some input.
|I have had purchased three Bosch dishwashers over time, and none of them had any issues. However, I would consider the 300 or 500 series for the all SS tub and extra sound padding. I just put in a custom-panel version for the first time, to better integrate with the surrounding cabinetry (if that is important to you). If you are concerned with making the handles coordinate between your nearby appliances, you can also investigate the Thermador or Kenmore Elite (certain models) that are made by Bosch.
I had considered VAH but I ended up with Modern-Aire. I'm very pleased. They have the regular baffle filters and a broader range of design options -- at a comparable price or less for a customized hood.
I was considering the Liebher built-ins, but as was pointed out to me, the custom height kind of boxes you into their line if there is ever an issue down the road.
|I tend to agree with everyone regarding upgrading your dishwasher ( at least in the kitchen ).
A dishwasher is typically used daily and with this much use you will appreciate a mid to higher level dishwasher that has good sound deadening. The 300 series may be OK for your game room but you should step up to a 500 or 800 series for your kitchen.
- Posted by Davis_Helen (My Page) on Thu, Jun 6, 13 at 1:19
|Thank you all so much for the feedback - we really appreciate it and will continue to read as we make our final decisions. We have decided to upgrade the dishwashers - at least in the kitchen - and you have given us some things to really think about with the range - we probably will end up with an all gas unit - for the balance of cost and function - since as noted, we are not gourmet cooks or bakers and probably could spend that money more wisely.
Thanks again!

February 22, 2013
Office supply stores and travel hacking are a strange combination, but in the past year or two they've been great together. Thanks to credit card bonus categories, Easy Rebates, big portal promotions, Vanilla Reload cards, and more, office supply stores have been a fantastic source of free or cheap points. While many of these deals have gone away, there are still some great opportunities. For example, here are a couple:
- Take advantage of American Express' OPEN Savings program (automatically part of most Amex business cards) at OfficeMax.com to get 10% back on orders of more than $250. This way you can get credit card rewards from your purchase (as always), plus sizable savings. And, OfficeMax.com recently began selling third party gift cards…
- Take advantage of credit cards that offer extra points at Office Supply stores (Chase Ink cards, for example), and go through an online portal to Staples.com to make purchases. Staples.com carries some third party gift cards, and their e-gift cards are fee-free. I've successfully gone through TopCashBack to Staples to get 5.5% cash back plus I've earned 5 points per dollar using my Chase Ink card!
So, now that Office Depot and OfficeMax are merging, what's next? Here are my completely uninformed guesses of what will happen:
- The new entity will be called Office Depot and will act like Office Depot in terms of what products are sold, the rewards program, etc.
- Many stores will close, especially where Office Depot and OfficeMax are currently in close proximity.
- We will lose the ability to save up to 10% via Amex OPEN Savings. Of course it's possible that Amex will negotiate a similar deal with the new entity, but my guess is that this benefit will go away entirely.
- There will be short term deals as stores close and as stores formerly known as OfficeMax get rid of whatever inventory is not carried by Office Depot.
- OfficeMax's MaxPerks rewards program will be phased out. I expect that they'll give people time to spend their MaxPerks rewards, but will issue new rewards as Office Depot Worklife rewards.
So, yeah, I expect that most of this will be bad news to consumers and pointaholics. For people who live in places with either OfficeMax or Office Depot, but not both, there may be some good news in that whatever deals are available should be available to them. On the whole, though, its probably not a good thing. On the optimistic front, maybe this bigger entity will work harder to compete with Staples and we'll see some new, great opportunities. We'll see…

Will keep an eye out for discounted deals, but it's hard to beat Staples free points and free stuff deals.
So much for $1500 a year in free stuff from OfficeMax via never ending MaxPerks! Grrr. Ah well, at least I have a 100 year supply of paper now
Kinda, sorta like the UA and AA merger. FM: how do find out this stuff?!
Lively: These are all just guesses based on the news about the merger.
Michelle: TopCashBack offers 5.5% back at Staples. ShopDiscover and uPromise offer 5%. I don't think there are any good point offers right now.
Matt: As I said in the post, these are all just my guesses. For all I know, OfficeMax rewards may continue.
Amol: Yes, intended
Jason: You're probably right. As I said in the post, these were just my guesses based on no real info whatsoever
@Lively, I saw this story on Google News and sent FM the link. I was never a fan of office max, so I'm kind of glad they are merging.
@Lively: Come on! Do you ever use internet for other purposes such as browsing news websites etc… or you use internet only for reading FM Blog! In recent days, there are more comments which really make me doubt the posters are real or fake?! This news is all over internet, radio, TV etc…
Do you know the best portal for staples? Ultimate rewards or something else?
Bummer…I just discovered OfficeMax rewards program and began accumulating points. Have been impressed with their sales and shipping speed.
This reads a lot like an AA/US merger post! :p
I think your assumption that this will essentially be an operating takeover of OMX by ODP might be a bit off (regardless of the financial structuring of the deal). While ODP is the larger company, OMX is only slightly smaller domestically and is generally further along on its turnaround of the last few years. Note details like the fact that the CEO choice (between either of the current leaders or in fact an outsider) is unclear. While store closing a are inevitable, it's quite premature to speculate which policies and strategies will be adopted by the combined company. As a retail analyst, I'd expect to see some of each in the successor company.
FM: Can you double dip the amex open by buying through a cashback or points portal at officemax.com and still get the 10 percent off?
This makes me sad. OfficeMax has been very good to me. Verrrrry good.

OM is usually in smaller markets where OD didn't want to go. Now those OM markets are bigger and there's fewer places OD wants to be but isn't.
While I can see how banks would be concerned about 5X "abuse", never understood OD bailing. They were making money hand over fist selling reloads.
@Larry: Not in my limited experience. Most portals have "no points for gift cards" in their T&Cs for OfficeMax. Purchase through UR mall did not credit for me.
Amex has recently changed the T&Cs of the OPEN Savings program. I posted the new T&Cs for OfficeMax here: http://thepointsninja.blogspot.com/2013/03/amex-business-open-savings-change-to-t.html
Amex is now offering 4 bonus MR per dollar as an alternative to the rebate. You can still choose the 10%, but I haven't figured out how yet.
Andyandy: Wow, I was really excited about this at first, but as you point out, they seem to price each MR at 2.5 cents. I wouldn't "buy" at that price.
@FM'er: Yeah, 2.5cpm is, as I understand it, the price at which Amex will sell you MR points to top off an award. So I'm having a hard time thinking of an instance in which the points would be preferable.
[…] my old post about the Office Depot / OfficeMax merger I guessed that the Open Savings benefit would go away. Specifically, I wrote this […]

Room was not cleaned properly.
We traveled for our daughters Air Force graduation and stayed about a week. When we checked in they moved us to a different room to accommodate us. It was a huge room with enought room for all to gather for visiting time. All total there were 4 groups of us and the breakfast was good and we decided that we will always check for these hotels first. Very pleased overall.
House keeping wasn't the best but since we lived there a week it gave something to do. :)
Good location
Stained bedspread and very loud toilet
We were greeted by friendly staff. The room was simple but clean and the bed was comfortable.
Breakfast was good and the staff were very friendly!
Rooms were a little outdated but again for the price it was fine I buy and sell homes so my advice would be to switch out the shower heads with rain soft heads with that many rooms yearly it would save thousands on the water bill and it would be much more environmentally safe
Wifi worked great.
There were no towels in our room when we checked in. There was a nasty bandaid stuck to the headboard of the bed from a previous guest that was not removed. The cable connection was so poor. The room smelled funky. Room was cheaper than others, now I understand why. Not going to stay at a La Quinta again.
not far to go to airforce base...people in area were very military people and nice...the girl behind desk was very pleasant when we came in early and helped us....she was wonderful
dust inch thick around walls...airconditioner you could see outside around it. towels were small and marked not white and wifi was lagging...and friends from had dead cock roaches in batheroom every day....ugghhhh thank god it was not my room because I don't do those...
people living there,hanging out side the rooms all hours of the night,making all kinds of noise and being half dressed.I was very uncomfortable be there and felt threatened by the tenants. I booked room for 4 nights and left after 1
Friendly staff
Beds are too small
Had trouble with electrical outlets in one room and bathtub drain problems in the second room. One family member also got bug bites the first night.
This is an affordable hotel if you are looking to save money. It is clean and includes breakfast
The rooms are open to the street, but it is safe area
prices was cheap online and easy t. find
They didnt give enough big towels for at least two people would of been okay
Everything was great our 1st night there they had us stay in a King Room on the 3rd Floor but since I have problems with my knees I asked if I could be moved to a 1st Floor room & the lady at the front desk went above and beyond to make sure I had a 1st floor room. My wife saw a lot of the reviews and wasn't to sure about this hotel but once we got there it was a different story we had a great stay and a great time on this vacation we will definantly be returning.
Bed was good and comfortable
Didn't like the showers, the pillows were horrible and they didnt have clean towels ready for us in the room i had to go to the lo by to get them
Having our room at the end of the building and not in the middle where all the noise is. Having plenty of ice available at the ice machine. Being able to park where I could see my vehicle.
Didn't like having only one bed (king) and having our six year old grand-daughter sleeping with us. Didn't like the continental breakfast that closes at 9:30, then not being able to get what was available because of all the kids jumping in front of me taking all they could carry. Didn't like having to wait till after 5:00 p.m. for housekeeping to show up and having to leave the room while they empty the filthy trash cans that have no liners, then the trash cans are not cleaned. Cannot believe they do not have a vacuum, THEY USE BROOMS, and only sweep what they see. There are no mops to clean the restrooms floors, do not clean the showers or tubs. Be sure to bring your own TV antenna because the DISH does not work. I have stayed at other LQ's in SA, Austin and other cities in other states that were excellent with no complaints. But this one just doesn't measure up to the others. I will continue to book at LQ but I will read the reviews before I book.
The property is ancient and nothing works. Had to go to front desk every day to get towels. Apparently they are not part of the room clean up. It doesn't appear the outdoor walkways have ever been cleaned. Soda, gum and various "other" stuff everywhere.
We spend one day without towels. In the front desk told me that they run out of cleans towels, I asked for towels by phone but after an hour of waiting I went directly to the front desk I until then the lady told me they didn't have any clean towels.
There were never enough towels, we had to go get our own each day and some days we had to wait because they were not clean. Not sure it the problem is too little staff or not enough towels and other room amenities. But the employees were friendly and doing their best with what they had
Price was too high for quality of facility. No towels when returned to the room. Air conditioner didn't work good. Toilet and sink not clean.
It smelled like mold and smoke. There was a pile of laundry sitting outside our room door, which wasn't very pleasant, the room was very small and over priced and when I booked, it was false advertisement on the way the room looked. Very dissatisfied and discouraged.
We were given a room that was already occupied and had to change. Our room smelled like mildew and poop the whole time! On top of that the first night our toilet overflowed! The housekeeping is horrible and need some classes on how to clean a room!!!
Smelled horrible and was not worth the money. Spend the extra few bucks to have a better stay somewhere else.
Good ac

2 Dividend Stocks to Buy, 1 to Avoid
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- It makes sense for most long-term investors to put at least some of their loot into speculative positions. I invest anywhere from 10% to 20% of my portfolio in ultraspeculative stocks such as Pandora (P) and Wendy's (WEN) and growth plays that don't pay dividends, such as Madison Square Garden (MSG).
The core of my portfolio, however, sits firmly in growth companies paying generally stable and increasing dividends.
In this article, I discuss two dividend stocks to consider buying and one to avoid.
Target (TGT) and Wal-Mart Stores (WMT)Make no mistake about it: I am bearish on roughly 95% of brick-and-mortar retailers. Unless it's an Apple (AAPL) store or something sharp, snazzy and exclusive like Lululemon (LULU), I want no part of it. Exceptions, however, do exist. Although I do not own either yet, I have put Target and Wal-Mart on my radar. The good news at Wal-Mart? Growth appears to have returned. I want to see how this past quarter worked out. (The company reports May 17.) But it seems like a reversal is underway, driven by Sam's Club revenue. Sales are up year over year across the board. A need will always exist for Wal-mart and Sam's Club, particularly in rural and suburban areas and among older people who are not prepared to allow Amazon.com (AMZN) to take over all aspects of their lives. If you do not know what a tablet is -- beyond your blood pressure medication -- chances are you will not order toilet paper on a Kindle Fire anytime soon.

MIDDLEBURY — An organization representing downtown Middlebury property owners is requesting that the town import and install a temporary parking structure to make up for the long-term loss of approximately 50 spaces during replacement of the railroad overpasses on Merchants Row and Main Street.

MIDDLEBURY — The past eight years have been somewhat of a rollercoaster ride for Connor Homes, a Middlebury-based builder of historic reproduction "kit" homes.
MIDDLEBURY — Part of Main Street in the heart of Middlebury will be closed for portions of this week to allow construction crews to replace sidewalk and curbs.
The thoroughfare between the roundabout and Merchants Row will be reduced to one lane between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. from Monday, Aug. 11, through Friday, Aug. 15. During that time, crews will replace sidewalk and curb on the northbound, or upstream, side of the bridge. Both lanes of traffic will reopen each evening at 5 p.m.
BRISTOL — Crews have begun construction on a number of improvements to Prince Lane in the heart of Bristol. Project administrator Carol Wells said the work will make the area safer for motorists and pedestrians, as well as improve the downtown aesthetics.
"The impetus of the project was to improve appearances, taking down all the ugly wires and poles, screening in the dumpsters, and mainly to provide safe access to pedestrians," Wells said.
MIDDLEBURY — As the snow and ice slowly recede from view, the town of Middlebury will turn its attention to a laundry list of public infrastructure projects aimed at repaving some local roads, upgrading the municipal water and sewerage systems, and replacing two prominent downtown railroad overpasses.
MIDDLEBURY — Faced with the prospect of noisy and disruptive construction on the two downtown Middlebury railroad overpasses next summer, organizers of the popular Festival on-the-Green week of outdoor musical performances will temporarily take their show on the road — to the Middlebury Recreation Park off Mary Hogan Drive.
MIDDLEBURY — Construction crews this week are expected to complete the excavation phase of a lengthy, $1,125,316 public works project on South Street, leaving only repaving work that will conclude next month.
MIDDLEBURY — On the Middlebury College campus, crews are hard at work on a number of summer construction projects.
VERGENNES — Early this spring, the original plan for one of the most prominent pieces of the Vergennes skyline called for a paint job.
That's when Tim and Liz Ryan, owners of the Ryan Block, a Main Street landmark that has borne their family name since a previous generation bought the 172-year-old building in 1965, asked Cornwall's Jonathan Hescock for cosmetic work on the cupola atop their three-story structure.
MIDDLEBURY — Construction is slated to begin next month on a project that aims to beautify and improve public access to the riverfront area of Middlebury's Marble Works complex, which fronts the Otter Creek falls.
It was last February that the Middlebury selectboard agreed to earmark $70,000 from the town's conservation fund to improve the riverfront, a magnet for tourists seeking views of the spectacular falls. Such a project, officials noted, would also enhance the shopping experience for folks at the Marble Works and in the rest of downtown Middlebury.

You guys did a great job. Probably the best I have experienced with PMS conversion, this was like # 29 for me. Thanks.
April 11, 2012
If you're waiting for the dust to clear from the recent furore over Pinterest's copyright infringement issues, before jumping in, think again. Your competitors are moving in. In a previous post, 'What's The Point of Pinterest,' I blogged about the opportunity for brands to use this social networking site as one massive canvas to study consumer behaviour. What a treat to be able to listen to users saying, 'This is how I want to decorate my home' or 'these are the places I want to go'. This time, I'd like to address the B2B marketing sceptics. Here's why you should be 'Pinterested'(I know, I know, I had to use that word!):
1. It's cleared the 'another social media fad' test. You've heard the stats - today, Pinterest is driving more traffic to websites than Linkedin, YouTube and Google+ combined. Yes, the audience was primarily female when it started and the boards were mainly about home interiors and fashion, but take a look at this infographic (via Kerrmunications - thank you Claire) that shows the difference between Pinterest users in the US and UK and see the potential from a B2B perspective.
Key takeaways are:
• The UK user base is skewed to a higher male population, with higher net worth and a broader interest base.
• Based on its current track record and growing unique visitors, we can expect this demographic to expand further based on content made available.
Can your brand really take the risk of being left out? It's not about having a presence, it's about giving your audience an option to reach you on their turf, where they like to hang out, similar to the idea of using Facebook pages or a YouTube channel.
2. The cost of entry is low, you need to move fast to create brand thought leadership. Ask yourself what are the major transformational themes impacting your industry today. For e.g. if you are in IT, chances are Cloud Computing and Big Data are two themes dominating your mind space. Go to Pinterest, put these words in the search bar and see what you come up with. It's likely you'll find images and videos from challenger enterprise IT brands attempting to own this space, act as the voice of the industry and offering audiences a more 'human side' to their company with visuals of their workspaces, their people, their culture and values - the things that define who they are as a brand.Click here to see how IT firm, VMware, is creating a space for itself around themes like virtualisation and cloud computing as part of its bid to compete for industry market share.
3. Drive traffic and generate leads. In an era of big data where we're constantly 'interrupted' with brands' push-marketing campaigns, Pinterest extends Seth Godin's concept of 'permission marketing' where we can allows customers to interact with our brands in their own time and at their own pace. Like other visual marketing friendly platforms like Flickr, brands can use Pinterest to share highly visual content (e.g. an infographic with results from a survey or a research study), offer sneak previews of their presence at major industry events (by sharing images of the stands and specifying when and where they can be accessed at the stands), show-off high impact events and share customer testimonials and drive referral traffic. Unlike Flickr and other visual platforms, you can build inbound links to drive people to websites, blogs and microsites and reap SEO related benefits.
However, here are two things you need to keep in mind before building a business case to use Pinterest:
1) Don't be a drive by pinner. Like any other content platform, you'll need a steady flow of content - whether fresh or existing visual material, that needs to be built into a content calendar. Chances are you've already got a great social media content calendar and can extend your reach by using Pinterest as another platform to place the more image friendly material created. Once you've started pinning, you'll need to monitor comments and respond to queries on an ongoing basis, similar to other content platforms. Moreover, you'll need to study trends in pinning to understand how you can add value to conversations or to the community, rather than just promoting yourself.
2) Don't treat your engagement with Pinterest as an experiment. If you do, chances are you're not going to resource it appropriately and will end up handicapping yourself from the start. Understand the resources you need and have them in place from the start. I'm sharing a tip from a book by Kipp Bodnar and Jeffrey L.Cohen, 'The B2B Social Media Book', "you'll always need more time and money than you expect for executing your social media tactics"(you can buy the book by clicking on the link!). But done properly, and integrated with a well thought out piece of inbound marketing strategy linked to your business objectives, Pinterest has the potential to deliver annuities on your marketing spend.
You guys did a great job. Probably the best I have experienced with PMS conversion, this was like # 29 for me. Thanks.

The prion protein gene (PRNP) encodes a protein that can abnormally fold and amass in brain tissues to cause fatal neurodegenerative diseases such as mad cow disease. These diseases are cumulatively known as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) and in humans, include CJD (Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease) and kuru. Kuru is confined to a human population in Papua-New Guinea and is transmitted by cannibalism at ritualistic mortuary feasts.
A high-profile study published nearly three years ago suggested that individuals who were heterozygous for a common polymorphism in the PRNP gene were relatively resistant to the disease. Over time, homozygotes who participated in the cannibalistic rituals purportedly diminished in numbers due to their increased susceptibility to kuru. This indicated that cannibalism conferred an effect of balancing selection on the PRNP gene throughout human history.
Bertranpetit and his colleagues sequenced 2,378 base pairs of the PRNP gene in 174 individuals; in addition, they genotyped two SNPs (or single nucleotide polymorphisms) from the PRNP gene in 1000 individuals from populations worldwide. They identified 28 different haplotypes - or combinations of DNA variants - in the PRNP gene and used this data to assess the ages of the mutations, to identify geographic patterns of variation, and to evaluate selective forces that have potentially influenced these patterns.
"In contrast to the previous study, which concluded that variation in the PRNP gene was strongly skewed toward intermediate frequency variants, our results showed that there was, in fact, a deficit of intermediate frequency variants," says Bertranpetit. "Our results are consistent with a complex history of episodic or fluctuating selection, including positive selection, purifying selection, and possibly even short periods of balancing selection."
On a more technical note, the study cautions researchers involved in SNP-based population genetics studies. The work is one of the first to empirically demonstrate how SNP ascertainment can introduce a strong bias in population genetics studies and severely affect the conclusions. Bertranpetit and his colleagues point out that at a time when a flood of ascertained SNP data is being generated, it is essential that SNP ascertainment be taken into consideration in data analyses.
The first author on the study is Dr. Marta Soldevila, who completed her Ph.D. at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra and performed a substantial part of the sequencing work at DeCODE Genetics (Reykjavik, Iceland).
