Have you ever dined alone in a restaurant?
Relevant offers
OPINION: I was sitting in a restaurant the other night, by myself, by choice, enjoying the ambience and the excellent food when a family - mum, dad and daughter - set down at the adjacent table.
You say hello as most friendly people do. Astoundingly, the mum said she wanted to move because she didn't want to sit next to a man by himself, as he might be a dirty old man. It's not often I'm stuck for words, but on this occasion I was.
I should point out that I am not a paedophile, voyeur, dirty old man, or a sex offender. I'm simply a widower with two grown-up daughters, a grandfather with family overseas or in other New Zealand cities, and I am ensconced in an earthquake-damaged home waiting for those problems to be resolved.
Discrimination happens to men and women who are by themselves. The travel industry, restaurants, ticketing agents and similar groups appear to be the worst offenders.
I would love to do a cruise, but I am still to find a cruise line where I can have a balcony suite or window suite without having to pay double for the privilege, as those are all advertised as twin share.
Airlines are not much better. Being a frequent flyer, I always book online, but being a single, choices of seats are limited and on occasion I have been asked to change seats. I was offloaded once because of a double booking, as they had a couple booked and two seats available mine being one of them.
I have stopped counting the number of times I have been asked "Is that for two?" or "Will you be joined by your wife?" and that look over your shoulder to see who is with you as if you must be with someone. And the looks at the beach or pool.
And when are supermarkets going to pack meat and vegetables in packs suitable for the single person?
By the way the look I got from the mother in the restaurant when I was joined by a female friend was satisfying enough.
The Rant is a forum to let off some steam. If you would like to submit up to 350 words on a topic, email us at firstname.lastname@example.com

Paula Poundstone
Paula Poundstone – Saturday April 27, 7:30 PM
Reserved: $34 advance, $37 day of show SOLD OUT
Wait Wait…Don't Tell Me panelist par excellence, brings her spontaneous, intelligent humor to Chandler! Attending a Paula Poundstone performance will leave you marveling at her ability to interact spontaneously with audience members in conversations bound to garner riotous laughter. Armed with nothing but a stool, a microphone and a can of Diet Pepsi, Paula's ability to create humor on the spot has become the stuff of legend. Little wonder people leave her shows complaining that their cheeks hurt from laughter, wondering whether the random people she talked to were "plants" – which, of course, they never are.
Paula's off-kilter sensibility and impeccable timing made her a perfect fit for NPR's "oddly informative", weekly news quiz program, Wait Wait…Don't Tell Me where she gets to match wits with some of the nation's leading pundits. The show is a winner of the prestigious Peabody Award for Broadcasting Excellence.
Paula grew up in Sudbury, Massachusetts and by the time she was nineteen was traveling on a Greyhound bus across the country, stopping in at open mic nights at comedy clubs as she went. She credits her kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Bump, with being the first one to spot her comedic talents. Bump wrote in a letter to Paula's parents: "I have enjoyed many of Paula's humorous comments about our activities." In 1979 Paula began nurturing her standup comedy talent as part of the Boston comedy scene, and then moved to San Francisco where she continued to flourish. By 1990 she had relocated to Los Angeles and had starred in several comedy specials for HBO, as well as appeared on Saturday Night Live when friend and mentor Robin Williams hosted the show.
In 2007 BRAVO premiered Paula's newest standup comedy special: "Paula Poundstone: Look What the Cat Dragged In". Other credits include frequent appearances on Garrison Keillor's "A Prairie Home Companion", the Voice of Judge Stone on ABC's Saturday Morning "Science Court" aka "Squigglevision", and "Paula", the mom in Cartoon Network's "Home Movies." She has made numerous appearances on "Late Night with David Letterman," "Sesame Street," "To Tell The Truth," and "Comic Relief." Paula won an EMMY Award for her field pieces on PBS's "Life & Times," and is also the author, along with her high school math teacher, Faye Ruopp, of three math text books for children published by Heinemann Press: The Sticky Problem of Parallelogram Pancakes, Venn Can We Be Friends?, and You Can't Keep Slope Down. She has published several magazine articles, and for five years wrote a back-page column in Mother Jones.
Paula Poundstone was the first woman to win an ACE Award for Best Standup Comedy performance and the first woman comic to be invited to perform at the distinguished White House Correspondents' dinner. She wrote her first book for Random House, There is Nothing in This Book That I Meant To Say. Part memoir, part monologue, Paula's unique laugh-out-loud book features biographies of legendary historical figures including Abraham Lincoln, Joan of Arc and Sitting Bull, among others, from which she can't help digressing to tell her own. She is currently is hard at work on a second book. Her editorial pieces can be heard on NPR's Morning Edition.
The Boston Globe said, "Poundstone improvises with a crowd like a Jazz musician…swinging in unexpected directions without a plan, without a net."
Tickets are expected to go quickly, don't miss an opportunity to see this uncannily gifted comic in action in Chandler's intimate setting.

Recap of my weekend
... clothes to dry. After all this was over, we headed to the Portobello Market with our other roommate Damien. I was ready with my bag to stuff it with tons of fruits and vegetables. The market was packed and went on for a few miles down a winding street in Notting Hill. There were a lot of jewelry and clothing booths but what I was really interested in was the food. We finally made our way down to some produce stands and I bought so much for more than half the ...

Whilst they were away me and Dad did email and homework activities.
Maddy came back and she was much better. She saw a really nice doctor who determined that her ear was really red and gave her some antibiotics.
We then decided to meet Aaron, Annie and Aiden at Richmond Park for a bit of ...

At any time of the day or night we can call on Jesus.
He is always waiting, listening for our call.
What a wonderful blessing.
No phone needed, no e-mails, just a whisper.
It is so easy to get caught up
with the trappings of wealth in this life.
Grant, O Lord, that I may be free
from greed and selfishness.
Remind me that the best things in life are free.
Love, laughter, caring and sharing.
How do I find myself today? Where am I with God? With others? Do I have something to be grateful for? Then I give thanks. Is there something I am sorry for? Then I ask forgiveness.
In the time of King Herod, after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, asking, 'Where is the child who has been born king of the Jews? For we observed his star at its rising, and have come to pay him homage.' When King Herod heard this, he was frightened, and all Jerusalem with him; and calling together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Messiah was to be born. They told him, 'In Bethlehem of Judea; for so it has been written by the prophet:
"And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
are by no means least among the rulers of Judah;
for from you shall come a ruler
who is to shepherd my people Israel".
Then Herod secretly called for the wise men and learned from them the exact time when the star had appeared. Then he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, 'Go and search diligently for the child; and when you have found him, bring me word so that I may also go and pay him homage.' When they had heard the king, they set out; and there, ahead of them, went the star that they had seen at its rising, until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw that the star had stopped, they were overwhelmed with joy. On entering the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother; and they knelt down and paid him homage. Then, opening their treasure-chests, they offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they left for their own country by another road.
How has God's Word moved me? Has it left me cold?
Has it consoled me or moved me to act in a new way?
I imagine Jesus standing or sitting beside me,
I turn and share my
feelings with him.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be,
world without end.
If you appreciated the daily prayer or have any suggestions or insights we will be glad to hear from you.
The world is charged with the grandeur of God.
It will flame out, like shining from shook foil;
It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil
Crushed. Why do men then now not reck his rod?
Generations have trod, have trod, have trod;
And all is seared with trade; bleared, smeared with toil;
And wears man's smudge and shares man's smell: the soil
Is bare now, nor can foot feel, being shod.
And for all this, nature is never spent;
There lives the dearest freshness deep down things;
And though the last lights off the black West went
Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs -
Because the Holy Ghost over the bent
World broods with warm breast and with ah! bright wings.
- Written by Gerard Manley Hopkins
This prayer helps us to put ourselves at God's disposal. Saint Ignatius describes this 'Preparatory prayer' as asking for 'the grace that all my intentions, actions and operations may be directed purely to the praise and service of the Divine Majesty.' (The Spiritual Exercises, no. 46) You might try these words:
Lord, I so wish to prepare well for this time.
I so want to make all of me ready and attentive and available to you.
Please help me to clarify and purify my intentions.
I have so many contradictory desires.
I get preoccupied with things that don't really matter or last.
I know that if I give you my heart,
whatever I do will follow my new heart.In all that I am today, all that I try to do,
all my encounters, reflections - even the frustrations and failings
and especially in this time of prayer,
in all of this may I place my life in your hands.
Lord, I am yours. Make of me what you will. Amen.
If it is true that God is at work in every detail of our lives, how do we begin to recognise his action and our reaction?
At the end of the day, especially before going to sleep, the mind, without any conscious effort on our part, tends to play back some of the events of the day so vividly that if the day has been particularly eventful we can find it difficult to get to sleep. We may find ourselves re-enacting a quarrel, thinking of the clever and cutting things we might have said if we had been more quick-witted, and so on.
The Review of Consciousness is based on this natural tendency of the mind. It can help us to be more aware of God's presence and action in our daily lives, and to be more sensitive to where we are cooperating with God's grace and where we are refusing it.
Let your mind drift over the last 24 hours, refraining from any self-judgement, whether of approval or disapproval, attending to and relishing only those moments of the day for which you are grateful. Even the most harrowing day includes some good moments, if only we take the trouble to look - it might be the sight of a raindrop falling, or the fact that I can see at all. When people attempt this exercise, they are usually surprised at the number and variety of good moments in the day which otherwise would have been quickly forgotten - obscured, perhaps, by any painful experience in the day.
Having remembered the events for which you are grateful, thank and praise God for them. After thanksgiving, the next step is to recall your inner moods and feelings, noting, if you can, what led to them, but again refraining from any self-judgement. Be with Christ as you look at these moods and beg him to show you the attitudes which underlie them.
The important thing is not to analyse our experience, but to contemplate it in Christ's presence and let him show us where we have let him be in us and where we have refused to let him be. Thank him for the times we have 'let his glory through' and ask forgiveness for the times we have refused him entry. He never refuses forgiveness. He knows our weakness far better than we do. All we have to do is show it to him and he can transform our weakness into strength. We can conclude with a short prayer, that also looks forward to the day to come, and asks for God's help.
Lord, you know me better than I know myself. Your Spirit pervades every moment of my life. Thank you for the grace and love you shower on me. Thank you for your constant, gentle invitation to let you into my life. Forgive me for the times I have refused that invitation, and closed myself off from you. Help me in the day to come, to recognise your presence in my life, to open myself to you, to let you work in me, to your greater glory. Amen.
Read over the passage, slowly, several times and see if any word or phrase stands out for you, and stay with that phrase for as long as you like before turning your attention to any other.
The process is a bit like sucking a boiled sweet (for US readers, hard candy). Do not try to analyse the phrase, just as you would not normally break up a boiled sweet and subject it to chemical analysis before tasting it.
Often a phrase will catch the attention of our subconscious mind's needs long before our conscious mind is aware of the reason for the attraction. That is why it is good to remain with the phrase for as long as possible without trying to analyse it.
I may find all sorts of distractions running through my mind, but some thoughts, far from being distractions, can become the substance of my prayer. It is as though the phrase of Scripture is a searchlight which plays upon my stream of consciousness, thoughts, memories, reflections, daydreams, hopes, ambitions, fears, and I pray out of the mixture of God's word and my inner thoughts and feelings.
The opening verse of the Bible, Now the earth was a formless void, there was darkness over the deep and God's spirit hovered over the water, is describing a present state of affairs, not a past event, and when I pray from the Scriptures I am letting the spirit of God hover over the chaos and darkness of my being.
When I allow the word of God to hover over my preoccupations, then anything can happen, for he is the God of surprises. It is important that I do not hide my inner chaos from the word of God or from myself. We are often so trained that we think it wrong to allow any negative feelings entry into our prayer, especially negative feelings about God. We have to learn to grow out of this training, expressing our feelings and thoughts freely before God and trusting that he is big enough to take our tantrums. There is no point in pretending before God, who knows us better than we know ourselves.
There is no thought, feeling or desire within you which cannot become the substance of your prayer in the light of God's word, when you know that God loves the chaos that is you and that his Spirit working in you can do infinitely more than you can think or imagine.
Trying to pray like this, it may well happen that the mind begins to fill with questions and apparent distractions. How do I know that I am not deceiving myself? How do I know these words are true, that God really does communicate himself through them? Do I really have faith in God? These are valid questions, but for now let them wait. When a child is frightened in the night, mother goes and lifts the child and says, 'It's all right,' and the child gradually quietens. But if she has a prodigy on her hands who replies, 'But mother, what epistemological and metaphysical assumptions are you making in that statement and what empirical evidence can you adduce in support of your contention?' then mother really has a problem in her arms. In prayer we are like that impossible child if we refuse to listen to God until he has measured up to whatever criteria we may care to lay down. We communicate with him first with our hearts. The heart is not mindless: it has reasons, deeper than we can see at first with our conscious minds.
Having left the questions aside for now, what do I do with all the other distractions which flood my mind? I may begin to wonder if I left the gas on, or remember an Email I forgot to send. If it is urgent, like the gas, the safest thing is to go and check. With matters that can wait, perhaps jot them down for later. Anything else which comes to mind, far from being a distraction, can become the substance of my prayer.
Imagine you see Jesus sitting close to you. In doing this you are putting your imagination at the service of your faith. Jesus isn't here in the way you are imagining him, but he certainly is here, and your imagination helps to make you aware of this. Now, speak to Jesus .... if no one is around, speak out in a soft voice .... Listen to what Jesus says to you in reply, or what you imagine him to say .... That is the difference between thinking and praying. When we think, we generally talk to ourselves. When we pray, we talk to God.
Anthony de Mello SJ, Sadhana pages 78-79
Saint Ignatius calls this conversation a 'colloquy', and says:
A colloquy is made, properly speaking, in the way one friend speaks to another, or a servant to one in authority - now begging a favour, now accusing oneself of some misdeed, now telling one's concerns and asking counsel about them. .... In the colloquies we ought to converse and beg according to the subject matter; that is, in accordance with whether I find myself tempted or consoled, desire to possess one virtue or another, or to dispose myself in one way or another, or to experience sorrow or joy over the matter I am contemplating. And finally I ought to ask for what I more earnestly desire in regard to some particular matters.
The Spiritual Exercises nos 54, 199

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Judge clears way for public offering in Empire State Building
NEW YORK -- A Manhattan judge last week backed a $55-million settlement in a court battle over the Empire State Building, effectively clearing the way for a plan to let the public buy shares in the famous New York City landmark.
Judge O. Peter Sherwood told lawyers at a court hearing he would formally approve the settlement in the coming days with a written ruling.
"I'm satisfied that the settlement reached is fair," Sherwood said.
The settlement stems from a long-running dispute over plans by real estate magnates Peter Malkin and his son, Anthony, to offer the public shares in their holdings in Manhattan and Connecticut, including the iconic 102-storey skyscraper. The offering is expected to raise $1 billion for a new company called Empire State Trust Inc.
A lawsuit alleged the building's owners misled non-controlling investors about the proposal to sell the public shares in a new company that would own the building -- an accusation the defendants denied.
The plaintiffs also had claimed the initial public offering would place an unfair tax burden on them. Along with creating a $55-million settlement fund, the deal will allow the investors to defer taxes on capital gains. Both sides had reached a tentative settlement late last year. But final approval was held up by the objections of a small group of investors who still oppose the IPO.
There was no immediate response last week to a message left with a lawyer for the opponents.
Some of the country's marquee buildings, including the General Motors building in New York and the Embarcadero Center in San Francisco, are owned by publicly traded companies. But the IPO for the Empire State Building is viewed as a rare chance for investors to own a piece of history -- an Art Deco icon visited by millions of tourists each year and featured in films such as King Kong and Sleepless in Seattle.
When the Empire State Building changed hands in 1961, the buyers sold 1,100 shares at $10,000 per share to help finance the deal. Some of the 3,300 investors were ordinary New Yorkers who pulled together just enough cash to buy partial shares.
Earlier this week, Sherwood rejected a challenge by the handful of holdouts to the IPO who argued a decades-old provision -- one that that would allow the Malkins to buy them out for $100 a share if they voted against the plan -- was against the law. The proposed public offering values the shares at more than $300,000 each.

The Hermione Granger effect: why teenagers are finally starting to say no to drugs and alcohol
Report shows that pupils appear to be leading an increasingly clean-living lifestyle
Jeremy Laurance
Jeremy Laurance is a writer on health issues. He is former health editor of The Independent and the i and has covered the specialism for more than 20 years. He thinks the harm medicine does is under-appreciated, the harm it prevents over-rated, and that cycling works better than most drugs. He was named Specialist Journalist of the Year in the 2011 British Press Awards.
Friday 27 July 2012
Say goodbye to the drug-fuelled raver and hello to the clean-living ecowarrior. Teenagers are changing and, for perhaps the first time in history, their parents approve.
Rates of drug- taking, drinking and smoking among children have plummeted in the past decade. Girls, it seems, are more likely to emulate the polite, studious Hermione Granger, played by Emma Watson, pictured right, in the Harry Potter films than wild-child party girls like Peaches Geldof in her heyday.
Among 11 to 15 year olds, the proportion who admitted to having taken drugs fell from 29 per cent in 2001 to 17 per cent in 2011. Regular smokers of at least one cigarette a week halved from one in 10 to one in 20. The number who said they had drunk alcohol in the past week was down from 26 per cent to 12 per cent.
Experts said a "profound shift" had taken place in the new generation's attitude to drink and drugs. The findings were based on a survey of 6,500 children aged 11 to 15 at secondary schools in England, conducted between September and December 2011.
Tim Straughan, the chief executive of the NHS Health and Social Care Information Centre, said: "The report shows pupils appear to be leading an increasingly clean-living lifestyle and are less likely to take drugs as well as cigarettes and alcohol. All of this material will be of immense interest to those who work with young people and aim to steer them towards a healthier way of life."
Siobhan McCann, of the charity Drinkaware, said: "While the decline in the number of children trying alcohol is good news, the report still shows there are 360,000 young people who reported drinking alcohol in the past week alone.
"Parents are the biggest suppliers of alcohol to young people aged 10 to 17 and also the biggest influence on their child's relationship with drink."
Drug-taking, drinking and smoking increases with age, the study found. Among 11-year-olds, fewer than one in 30 said they had taken drugs in the past year, compared with almost one in four 15-year-olds.
Cannabis was the most popular drug but its use fell during the decade. In 2011, one in 13 young people said they had smoked it, compared with one in seven in 2001.
Drug use was found to be highest in southern England and lower in the Midlands and the North. The proportion of children saying they had smoked cigarettes at least once was the lowest since the survey was first carried out in 1982 – reflecting the pressure created by anti-smoking laws. Even so, one in five said they had tried cigarettes and one in 20 did so regularly.
In 2001, one in five teenagers said they drank alcohol at least once a week. By 2011, that proportion was down to one in 14.Miles Beale, of the Wine and Spirit Trade Association, said: "The increase in the number of young people who have never drunk alcohol, and the fact those who do drink appear to be drinking less, suggests that the messages about the risks of underage consumption are being heard."
'Most of us think of our future, and drink won't help'
Rosie Brighton, 13, Watford
"I know a few people my age that drink but not many. When you look at people that turn up for school hung-over, not caring and not getting the grades, it is off-putting. Most of us are working hard to get good exam results because we look at the high unemployment rates and think we'll need all the help we can get. We're thinking about our future, and drink is not going to help that.
"I don't know anyone who smokes or takes drugs. A lot of people are afraid of how mad their parents would be if they were caught. I think health authorities and schools have to educate children about drugs early. I had my first lesson in school about drugs in Year 6, but have been made aware of the dangers by my mum."

UFC President Dana White announced late Wednesday night that the Las Vegas-based promotion has signed a deal with Vale Tudo Japan to "promote and operate a new tournament series projected to debut later this year."
The tournament, which White likened to "The Ultimate Fighter" reality series, is expected to feature fighters from the bantamweight and featherweight divisions. The fights will air on Japanese terrestrial television, according to a release. More details regarding the agreement will be unveiled when the Octagon touches down in Japan this September for UFC Fight Night "Hunt vs. Nelson."
"Much like 'The Ultimate Fighter,' this series will continue to cultivate and popularize top talent for us in new markets. The round-robin tournament concept is going to make for amazing fights, with a lot at stake," White said. "Every fight will matter, every performance will count. I am so excited to be back in Japan."
Hosted by the Shooto organization, Vale Tudo Japan debuted in 1994 and ran until 1999. Reunion events were held in 2009, 2012 and 2013. The first two VTJ events were tournaments, both of which were won by Rickson Gracie.
The UFC is scheduled to return to Japan on Sept. 20, when Roy Nelson meets Mark Hunt in a heavyweight Fight Night headliner at the Saitama Super Arena.

Time to trade Cassell, Spree?
Last year in Minnesota, VP of basketball operations Kevin McHale's extreme makeover of the Timberwolves almost proved to be the exception.
When McHale added four talented players known more for their off-court behavior than what they do on the court Latrell Sprewell, Sam Cassell, Troy Hudson and Michael Olowokandi the conventional wisdom read something like this:
If they start winning early, they're as dangerous as any team in the NBA. If they stumble out of the gate, call in the riot squad.
The 2003-04 Timberwolves started off hot and went on to record the best mark in the Western Conference last season. The team ended a seven-year streak of getting ousted in the first round of the playoffs, and the newcomers took the Timberwolves within two games of the NBA Finals.
This year, things couldn't be more different. The 16-12 Timberwolves have lost six of their last nine games, including head-scratchers to the Raptors and Bulls.
Now, just one year after the glorious honeymoon, everyone involved is looking for the divorce court.

Everything! Use this hotel quite regularly and have never had cause to complain. Staff are friendly and welcoming which always makes the stay a pleasant experience.
No complaints whatsoever.
comfortable room and polite,helpfull and friendly staff. great view over the harbour and excellent breakfast incusive of very reasonable rice.
i feel that the main stair carpet and hallways not too inviting - a bit tired. change old carpet and hang some nice bright art work in the coorridors. impressions are important but othrwise excellent stay ...thank you.
Ideally situated for ferries and train station Outstanding views Very comfortable bed Helpful and happy staff
Traditional and impressive building requiring some TLC - excellent nevertheless.
Breakfast was good and staff were attentitive.
Room was cold, television non existent. Toilet/bathroom was in need of TLC and decor of room need to be upgraded including carpets
The location The size of the room Big windows
Lighting in the room-not bright enough for reading. Breakfast was average-no fresh fruit!
The view was stunning. The room was old world luxury. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
The Wi-Fi was poor, signal wise. The tv was archaic, not that there was much need with a view like we had. It did nearly fall on top of me though and it was really heavy!
Breakfast was very good with plenty of choices and staff were very friendly and helpful.
In our room which we paid a premium for, the windows leaked badly when it rained.The toilet seat was broken and tiles were cracked.The bed looked as though it had previously collapsed and had been shoddily screwed back together.The blinds did not work properly so the lights from the ferry ,which were on all night,shone straight into our room.
location, very central
the room was dingy and the bathroom/ shower was dreary and in dire need of improvement some signs of regrouting to tiles done very very badly, unable to change tv Chanel on small small tv. Would not recommend this hotel, breakfast was also poor.
The tv in my fathers room did not work on the first night he was there he was moved the next day but was given nothing to compensate for being without the tv for that night and as he is 82 years of age that was an important part of his stay as he does not go out at night i called the hotel personally 3 times but got told to call back to speak to someone who would help but nothing was ever done was very disapointed at the responce of 4he hotel
The hotel is close to the railway station and rooms at the front have lovely views over the water to Mull
Lukewarm welcome at reception, had to wait in the lounge as we were 10 mins early for check in. No complimentary tea or coffee on arrival. The feature room had water damaged Ceiling and floors, was tight for space and generally dated, worn out decor and flooring. Eventually we were offered a move to a slightly better room by a more helpful receptionist, but it still did not resemble any photo on website. Spoiled the weekend.
Liked the location, the staff, the food and the room. Had to ask for a change of room and was given this with no bother. Decor in dining room and cafe freshly painted and comfortable.
Felt the first room was in need of redecoration. Change of room was much better.
Location near rail and ferry terminals, and shops
Terrible decor: awful! Worn carpets: whole hotel needs refurbishing.
Good central location.
No hotel car park.Car parking in Oban bit of a pain.
Great location. Helpful staff. View from bedroom at front.
Bedroom could do with a freshen up - but don't let that deter you from a stay. No 'lorne' sausage or haggis at breakfast!!
The location and the view.
Tired hotel - past its best. Poor TV reception on dated sets.
Wifi was excellent throughout hotel and the resteraunt was nice.
Room at the back facing the road so was quite loud at night with people leaving pubs. Room was basic! Shower doors were broken and someone else's soap had been left in the shower! Very run down and old fashioned.
Location, cafe down stairs.
Could use a little updating
Good position for ferry and train station
Terrible decorations: bad taste, worn carpets, everything needing investment.
The location
The bar area and restaurant seemed to be areas that were maintained as they are in public view. However the carpets throughout the stairwell were worn out and dated. Our room which we paid extra for was in need of a refurbishment. When I complained about our T.V reception being of very poor quality, I was told by a rather useless red headed male receptionist that seemed as though he would just not be bothered, that ' it's like this throughout Oban', with no offer of anything else. This I feel was not true, as on our visit we frequented a number of bars and restaurants and found the T.V quality excellent. I feel that to recommend this hotel to anyone would be false advertisement and do no business any good. I do not feel I will be using booking.com or Caledonian Hotel in Oban in the future as they both spoiled our trip. This is something I intend to add to trip advisor.
Nice view of harbour
Filthy pillows Cheap, uncomfortable bed with springs sticking out Single glazing Taxi rank at front of hotel so don't expect any sleep if you are staying there on a Friday or Saturday night!
old rooms, sloping floors. cracking paint, noisy creaking bed. We have stayed here for 20 years and watched it deteriorate gradually even after a partial refit. too expensive for what you get, inconsistency in room allocations as they are different on the 3rd floor and very small
The cleanliness of rooms the size of rooms
The bathrooms need renovated found very hard to get in to the high half bath to shower no rails to help get in or out. The breakfast was not to appetizing.Decor in rooms could be better

Blazers Ice Centre, home of the Oklahoma University Sooners, lets groups embark on fun, frosty adventures during daily public-skate hours, in hockey leagues, and through figure-skating lessons. Twirling across the frozen indoor pond marries exercise with entertainment and gives budding Dorothy Hamills and Wayne Gretzkys a chance to practice camel spins, fast breaks, and basic stopping techniques, such as running into a wall. During breaks from the rink, guests can feast on chicken nuggets, fries, or other snacks, sip on hot chocolate or other beverages, or peruse the well-stocked pro shop for figure-skating or hockey gear.
A team of skilled instructors molds slip 'n' sliders of all ages into graceful ice traversers during group and private lessons. The skate mavens impart basics of icemanship, such as distinguishing between a triple Lutz, a double salchow, or a single angry Zamboni.
At Arctic Edge Ice Arena, skaters of all ages learn the principles of figure skating and hockey under the direction of a coaching staff whose collective experience includes training US Figure Skating competitors and contributing choreography to the 2002 Winter Olympics. Between lessons, the arena opens for public skating so guests can practice their technique or etch their self-portraits into the ice. In addition to lessons and open skating, Arctic Edge hosts several youth and adult skating clubs, such as the Oklahoma Curling Club. The facility encompasses a concession stand and arcade, as well as a pro shop that serves both recreational and competitive skaters.
At Star Skate, you might find skaters trailing balloon bouquets or waving glow sticks as they circulate smoothly around the rink. These—along with providing dishes of ice cream, hot dogs, and soda—are a few of the ways the staff helps party guests celebrate birthdays and other events. But whether it's someone's birthday or not, guests can always celebrate the joy of frictionless frolicking by outfitting their feet with roller, inline, or speed skates at any of Star Skate's four locations.
Family owned and operated, Southwestern and Skate Moore offer families and friends a safe place to whirl and race around the rink. Your next game of crack the whip awaits a snack bar, a full selection of high-quality skates and wheels, and bumper skating at Southwestern Skate Center. The Skate Moore location also includes a snack bar with popular fare (pizza, candy, beverages), a Pro Shop, and a well-groomed black-lit glow floor. Both locations house fun for kids, parties, and families alike.
Skate Galaxy's outdoor sign is shaped like an orb surrounded by a ring of stars, proving that red planets are not just the birthplace of eccentric pop stars. Inside, skaters glide over a glossy white floor as neon lights trace patterns of planets and stars for them to follow and disco balls project glints onto the rink like twinkling comets. Even the carpet seems like a nightscape as it glows under the black light, directing eight-wheeled astronomers to the concession stand stocked with treats such as pizza, pretzels, and energy-boosting Clif Bars. All the while, air conditioning recalls the cold emptiness of space, where astronauts work tirelessly to keep the universe's thermostat at a comfy 65 million degrees below zero.

COMPLETE edition of the interactive "choose next panel" comic
4.09 / 5.00 13,151 ViewsTons of upgrade, epic bosses, action-packed and easy to pick up game !
First I thought the game is boring and hard, but then I have seen that you can level up and get more starting money. It´s funny to see how much money you have at the beginning after a while and how strong you can get, things that have been hard starting be easier and easier. Addicting!
Freaking Awesome!!!!
There are a few times when I come across a game on Newgrounds that I just cannot stop playing. This is one of those times. I loved the post death upgrade system, it kept me playing until i beat the game. Once again, I loved it and can't wait to see what else you put out.
This is amazing! The final boss is anyyoing. I beat him in the first form then I went over his body to collect the gold but he changed form and just shot me dead!
Oh my God...
This is...By far, one of the hardest games on Newgrounds I have EVER played...Ridiculously fun, though... Tip of beating the final (VERY FINAL) Boss, ALWAYS be in the opposite corner he is, and you will avoid every shot. (If your quick enough...)
Love the music, but it reminds me of Pirates of the Caribbean. xD
I love the graphics...There damn good.
Took a while, but I got EVERYTHING!! =D

Michael Larabel
4 Comments
The FreeBSD project has issued their latest quarterly status report that covers activities for the open-source operating system made between April and June of 2014.
Among the items covered in this Q2'2014 report for FreeBSD include:
- The Ports package management tree is slowly approaching 25,000 packages.
- CUSE4BSD has been imported into the base system for FreeBSD 11. CUSE is for implementing character devices in user-space for FreeBSD.
- A new automounter is being developed for FreeBSD to address current shortcomings of their existing automounter and to hit feature parity with other Unix systems.
- Performance optimizations are being worked on for RPC/NFS and CTL/iSCSI. Separately, PostgreSQL performance improvements are being tackled too.
- ZFSguru is gaining steam as a new FreeBSD derivative that focuses upon being multi-functional server appliance software with a focus on storage using the ZFS file-system.
- Work is underway for running FreeBSD as an application on the Fiasco.OC Microkernel. The Fiasco.OC Microkernel is part of the L4 micro-kernel family.
- Continued improvements are being made to FreeBSD's UEFI Boot support.
- The updated VT system console is making progress.
- The 64-bit ARM / ARM64 / AArch64 architecture port of FreeBSD is still in progress.
