FunFunky Baby Blog Update! All things fun and funky for kids and babies!
Sophistication In The Modern Nursery Blog of the Week Outfitting one of the most important rooms in your house takes a lot of careful planning. I am talking about the nursery. The first consideration should be how much space is available to accommodate quite a number of furniture. The crib and the rocker are just the basic pieces. All of them are quite bulky and the nursery is almost always small. To make the most of modern spaces, streamlined modern nusery furniture will work best. It is no use having beautiful but bulky furniture when it keeps you from moving efficiently in the nursery. If you are going to use modern nursery furniture with clean lines, it is best to design the nursery in a modern way. Aside from the sleek silhouette of modern furniture, a modern nursery will not take a lot of effort to change later when your child grows older. The traditional nursery has its charms, but if you want a room and furniture that will grow along with your child, going modern is more (read more .....) |

Food Revolution Professional
The amazing individuals we highlight here are chefs, school nutrition directors, foodservice providers, restaurant owners and other food professionals who are showing us the way to better food for kids. Their programs provide models for how to cook healthy food from good ingredients that kids and adults will love to eat.
Jamie joined the Santa Cruz City Schools District as Senior Manager of Food Services and Nutrition in 2009 having left his dream job to tackle the meal closest to his heart, the School Lunch. With a wealth of experience and knowledge gained during his time as a chef, working alongside many top chefs in a number of great restaurants, coupled with a commitment to cooking with healthy, local, seasonal foods, Jamie has turned around the food system at Santa Cruz Schools - which now offer fresh, new flavours and healthy from scratch options.
Scott Soiseth has turned around the food served within the Turlock Unified School district through hid real. fresh. menu, moving towards fresh fruits and vegetables and introducing truly innovative meat options such as rotisserie chicken and sustainable grass feed beef. Having realised back in 2006 that his commitment for health needed to be accompanied by an image that would make his cafeterias a lasting success, Scott introduced real. fresh. The brand is everywhere, from the speed lines and equipment in the cafeteria, to the sports field scoreboard and promotional posters. By improving the overall food quality and backed by the smart marketing, overall lunch participation by students has gone up.
Since joining the Novato Unified School District as Nutrition Director in 2002, Miguel has developed and implemented innovative strategies to improve school lunches by offering more nutritious, whole food choices including a fresh salad daily whilst phasing out processed foods high in sugar and fat, and removing chocolate milk. As an advocate of locally grown and organic foods, Miguel ensures as much local, organic food is used as possible and has connected many students and their families with their local farms and harvest produce through harvest of the month and gleaning programs.
John is a nationally recognized leader and innovator in sustainable food practices. Recognizing the impact of food service on the world around us, John's consulting company is on the cutting edge in developing best-practices to benefit health, the planet and the bottom line. John and his team use careful assessment, planning, teaching and development to revolutionize food service in schools, hospitals and universities. They have worked with Jamie Oliver on the West Virginia Food Revolution and were chosen by the White House to help develop the USDA's Chefs Move to Schools initiative.
Gary Petill is Director of Food Services at San Diego Unified School District. He joined Food Services eight years ago and has since implemented great changes in the way SDUSD schools provide meals to students. Gary came to Food Services after 23 years in the hotel trade, with a mission to promote healthier eating habits in children. He has overseen the removal of chocolate milk from the schools' breakfast program, introduced salad bars featuring fresh local produce and committed SDUSD to eliminating all heavily processed foods from school menus over three years. He is a strong advocate of encouraging children to eat more fruit and veg.
Jeff is the ambitious former NYC restaurateur hired to revolutionize DC Public Schools food. He helps confront DC's childhood obesity crisis by ensuring that 45,000 students have access to high-quality school meals and are empowered to make healthy choices. Jeff has implemented two pilot meal programs to drastically improve food quality and taste, has ensured that all vendors source 20 per cent of their ingredients locally, has cut processed foods from the menu and has established some of the highest nutritional standards in the country. By June, DCPS will have served 2 million more meals than last year, saving $1 million.
Tracie immediately used her role as Nutrition Director for Compton Unified School District to eliminate strawberry milk, an initiative that benefitted 39,000 kids. This year, she removed chocolate milk from breakfast, and next year plans to remove it from lunch. The kids are not drinking less milk, instead, purchase is up due to the fact that it is served ice cold. Tracie has also piloted SNS F.R.E.S.H (School Nutrition Service Farm Raised Especially for Student Health). Working with her produce provider and the local farmers' market, she currently serves local scratch food in each of the 39 schools in Compton Unified.
Paul is chef and owner of Country House Restaurant, a family-run business that operates school food programs throughout Chicago. Last year, he partnered with Holy Trinity to develop an innovative and thriving school meal program that provides freshly prepared nutritious meals. Paul has transformed the system, everything is made from scratch on site, with a focus on high-quality ingredients - fresh meats, locally grown produce, and wholegrain baked goods and pasta. All the chips, French fries, sodas, and prepackaged foods have been eliminated from the meal program and both revenue and participation rates have risen.
As a chef, Tim has prioritized real food in New Haven Public Schools, CT. Tim leveraged the purchasing power of 20,000 student meals a day. His produce bid attracted a large vendor, specializing in local farms, with competitive prices. As a result, 140,000 pounds of produce is now locally sourced. Since the 09/10 school year, chicken nuggets, mozzarella sticks, and fish patties are off the menu. Roasted "on the bone chicken" is a menu staple, served with fresh vegetables and spice-based sauces. New Haven school lunch is in alignment with the Wellness Committee's deep concern for childhood obesity and is loved by the kids.

Ask CVG Anything does exactly what it says on the tin. We ask followers on the CVG Facebook page and forums to send in their best game-related questions, and do our best to answer them.
If you want to see your question featured in a future edition of Ask CVG Anything, either add it as a comment at the bottom of this article or keep an eye on our Facebook page or this forum thread where we'll be regularly asking for more.
If you could only have one launch game for the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4, which would you get? I think I'd have Dead Rising 3 for the Xbox and Fifa 14 for the PS4 - proudgace
Chris - This is going to sound horribly mainstream and I know it's not what most gamers are going to want to hear (except you, lovely question-answering chap) but the first game I pre-ordered for Xbox One was FIFA 14. I am an unashamed FIFA addict and continue to play Ultimate Team on a daily basis on the Xbox 360 version so I have no qualms at all with making that my first next-gen game, especially since EA are actually putting all the modes in it at launch this time (unlike the shameful barebones versions launched for the Xbox 360 and Wii U, which were sorry excuses for FIFA games).
As for PS4 the jury's out on that one I reckon. None of the titles confirmed for launch have truly blown me away yet, whereas I'm also going to get Forza 5 and Dead Rising 3 on Xbox One, but that doesn't concern me. This is a race, not a marathon, and I'm sensible enough to remember that the Xbox 360, PS3 and 3DS all had barren patches of a year or so too. So I'll maybe try and nab a cheap copy of Knack, just because I like platformers.
Tamoor - For Xbox One it's got to be Dead Rising 3, I have fond memories of playing nothing but Dead Rising 2 when I first got my Xbox 360, looking forward to doing the same on the new console. Unless it's shit, of course, but I think it's going to be ace.
For PS3? Hmmmm. Currently the only game I'm really interested is inFamous, I love that series. But I'm hoping a few of the indie games shown at E3 will be available at launch, I'll snap them up.
Rob - Dead Rising 3 looks pretty good, but I'm really interested in Titanfall. I never play mech games because they seem a bit esoteric, but I've always been drawn to them, and I think this will bridge the gap for me. Also worth remembering that the team at Respawn has tremendous pedigree when it comes to first-person shooters.
For the PS4, I don't think it has any major exclusives that interest me more than the third-party games, at least for now. I'll probably get Watch Dogs, or maybe Battlefield 4.
Why do people complain about the left stick on the Dualshock being in the wrong position but never the right? Surely they are both wrong? Why do the same people not complain about the right stick on an Xbox controller being in the "wrong" position? - TheLastDodo
Rob - Because the left stick is in the wrong position and the right stick isn't.
Chris - It's a boring answer but there's no real right or wrong. People who complain about the Dualshock's left stick being in the "wrong" position obviously came to the party late and were raised on the Xbox layout, when obviously the Dualshock layout came first. So if anything, it's the Xbox left sitck that's "wrong", but I'm actually boring myself writing this. They all feel comfortable in their own way (except the DualShock 3's triggers).
Tamoor - What? This question hurts my brain. The right stick on both controllers are basically in the same place, the left stick is what differentiates them. A lot of people have come to find the Xbox 360 controller to be better suited to all-around gaming, and the placement of the left stick is a big part of that. So the placement of it on PS3 seems wrong, and they complain.
Why do clothes always feel nice when first put on, but never feel the same after their first wash ? Also, are we all going a little bit over the top by suggesting we won't buy console "X" so far in advance of console "X"'s release ? Should we all just calm down and do a word puzzle or something to take our minds off the topic ? - richomack360
Chris - Yeah, whatever mate. You sit there and do your word puzzles, I need to nip off down the shops and pre-order a PlayStation 5 and an Xbox Zero.
Also, if your new clothes are made of cotton or wool, and aren't 'pre-shrunk', I recommend washing them in cold water and drying them on low heat, which will allow the clothes to slowly tighten up and shrink just a bit, instead of shrinking a whole lot at once.
Rob - Yeah I know that feel bro. It's the treacherous washing machine spinning the life out of everything. Buy a good fabric conditioner to maintain that fresh feel, at least for a while.
Tamoor - Clothes! Clothes. I hate em, I just hate em, they're so constricting! I mean does a lion wear clothes? And the lion is the king of the jungle! So why can't I, a humble citizen, go naked? I'm naked. I'm naked! Does it offend you? I was born naked, I'm gonna die naked! I'm going to live naked! So there! There's nothing wrong with being naked! It's so invigorating feeling the hot leather of a chair, or the cool wind from the North on your naked body.
Don't you believe in free speech, and free expression? No, of course you don't: All you believe in is free drinks! I'm naked and there's not a damn thing you can do about it! I'm naked and I feel so good! Nudity is real! Open your eyes! Take off your pants, come on! Come on, you can be a figure-head for naturists! We have more members now for the first time since 1977. Nudity is back! A lot of people are into nudity and really understand the spiritual side. We're not swingers! It's not about sex. It's about being one with the world.
I think we should buy what we like the look/sound of. If that's an Xbox One? Great. PS4? Great. Both? Great. Neither? Great. Word puzzle? Greatest.
Chris - I think we should stop sitting Tamoor right under the air conditioning vent. It's blowing directly on his brain all day.
Smartglass/Vita-enabled content for the One/PS4 respectively: critical to this coming generation, a nice bonus, or a catastrophe waiting to happen? - Balladeer
Rob - A flash in the pan.
Chris - It's a bonus but one I hope doesn't get crammed into everything for the sake of it. It works on Wii U because the screen is part of the controller, I don't want to be juggling my controller and my iPad like some sort of tech-obsessed acrobat.
Tamoor - I think it could be a good bonus, as long as it's done properly. I like the looks of what Watch Underscore Dogs is doing with it and The Divison too. For now, I'm staying open-minded on it.
We have already seen EA increase the RRP of their games for next gen, even though they have stated "there will be no spike in spending during next gen transition" Is this something we can expect across the board? Or is it just EA trying to recoup the money they lost from sinking the online pass system? - flyfetch
Chris - I'd need to double-check but I'm pretty sure EA hasn't increased its next-gen RRP. It's just typical launch day syndrome (though it usually comes from shops, not publishers).
Since the dawn of time (well, since the first PlayStation was released in 1996) consoles have launched with games at £49.99, then once the consoles are no longer considered 'new' and start to fit into the 'current-gen' category their price drops down to £39.99 (or, if you're GAME, £44.99). It happened with the PlayStation, the PS2, the PS3, the Xbox, the Xbox 360 and the Wii U, and it'll happen again with the Xbox One and PS4.
The RRP of current-gen games is actually still £49.99, most shops just sell them for cheaper to compete with their rivals. Give it six months and it'll be easy to find new next-gen games in most places (except the aforementioned) for forty quid.
Rob - Electronic Arts didn't lose money by sinking its online pass system. And it's not likely it will raise game prices above the competition.
Tamoor - Rob can be so cold sometimes. What he says is true.
Anything to share on Wonderful 101? Kamiya was complaining about it not having any coverage, and he's right, I don't know who is at fault though - the media or Nintendo as publisher. Most people don't even know how it plays, and seem to think it's some kind of superhero version of Pikmin, which seems way wide of the mark. It's a new IP on a Nintendo system, directed by one of the greatest directors of the last 10-15 years, yet beyond the odd vid and bit of gossip, we've seen nothing on here (or anywhere, to be fair). Is this Nintendo not showing it off, or have you just not gotten around to it? Surely it was played at E3? - ricflair
Rob - A good point. I'll get in touch with Nintendo and see if we can get something going. Thanks dude.
Tamoor - I haven't ever been contacted with an opportunity to play or see The Wonderful 101, or to interview anyone from the development team. And if I tried to set up an interview with Kamiya over Twitter he'd tell me to go fuck myself, or something more profane (which I'd find hilarious). It hasn't done the circuit as most games would, which is very odd. Having said that, I think it looks freaking awesome and I can't wait to play whatever that thing is.
Chris - The responses you see above are often the sort of thing you get from a game that's actually secretly not very good and is being kept hidden out of sight so people don't get to find out early. On the contrary, I have indeed played The Wonderful 101 a couple of times and I've absolutely adored what I've played of it. It's odd that new information has been fairly scarce but maybe now that Pikmin 3's out Nintendo will finally focus on pushing The Wonderful 101, because it's the next game on the way. Don't be concerned: from what I've played this could easily be one of the Wii U's best games so far in my opinion.
By the way, for those reading this with no clue what The Wonderful 101 is or why I'm so excited about it, check out this Wonderful 101 gameplay footage posted up a few days ago.
I think that cross platform gameplay would be a revolution in gaming. Each platform would have their exclusive games but say if I got Call Of Duty or Battlefield on PS4 and a buddy had it for Xbox One, we could all still play it together online. It would be great to have something that would connect all players universally no matter what system they prefer, as everyone has different tastes and preferences but at the same time they have similarities. What do you think? - nOVA1987
Chris - It's a lovely idea in theory but I'm not sure Sony or Microsoft would be up for it. I think they want to build their own communities of Xbox Live and PlayStation Network players, and would probably prefer it if their players didn't hop into bed with others (even though it would be better for the gamers to have a larger community). I think Microsoft are happy just now with the "my friends are all on Xbox Live, so I'll need to buy an Xbox to play with them" situation.
There are also all sorts of logistical nightmares that would have to be sorted out. How will you get the Xbox Live servers to communicate with the PSN ones? What happens with gamertags and user IDs? What if you're playing on Xbox and want to report a PlayStation player: what reporting system would you use? What if a game performs well on one system, but has frame rate issues on another: would that affect lag and knock players out of sync? What voice chat protocol would you use? Since all these problems (and more) would have to be solved first, I don't think either company is in a rush to adopt cross-platform gameplay.
Rob - It'll be a big logistical problem (servers) with potential licensing and legal issues, and there's lots of unknowns. Thing is, both Sony and Microsoft will never do it because they want to sustain their own communities and not directly benefit their rivals'. A shame, really, because the outcome would be great for gamers, but is probably too risky for the industry.
Tamoor - I think you'd have a better shot getting the Crips and Bloods to make nice with each other.
The answers to this will probably contain spoilers, but if you could pick one emotional standout scene from any game that you'll always remember what would it be? - Barry316
Rob - I really can't think of any off the top of my head. Think that sums up how I feel about the narrative sensibilities of the first 40 years of videogames. Things are getting better, clearly, and playing games is as amazingly entertaining as ever, but just not that engaging beyond those baseline emotions.
Tamoor - Rob has no soul.
Anyways, Metal Gear always tugs at my heartstrings, Sniper Wolf in MGS1, The Boss in MGS3, the toaster sequence in MGS4 (I remember standing and shouting "NO! YOU WILL NOT DIE SNAKE! YOU WILL NOT" and hammering the crawl button until my finger felt like it was going to break). Also the bit where you return to Shadow Moses in MGS4, when 'The Best is Yet to Come' starts playing I was overwhelmed slightly. The last episode of The Walking Dead was really great too.
There's a bunch of moments in the Final Fantasy series; the Palom and Porom scene was pretty sad, Aerith getting shanked, mainly because I spent ages power levelling her, literally hours of progress being killed. I think Final Fantasy 10 did some great stuff with the relationship between Yuna and Tidus, which it doesn't get enough credit for.
There's loads more that I'm blanking on right now...
Chris - The endings to Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. Any of them. Alternatively, I got emotional reading the storybook in the library in Super Mario Galaxy for some reason. I think it's the music that does it for me in both instances.

Foreskin: Hot or Not? What is your preference Gentlemen, there is a part of most of us that has been missing since birth. (No, girls, not the brain). The foreskin. Shortly after birth the male baby's penis actually looks like a tiny cannoli, with the tip of the fresh penis nestled unsuspectingly in a cuddly wrap of loose fleshly cover, known as the foreskin. Then when we young lads are just getting our bearings, there is a brief swish of the surgeon's blade and about a quarter inch or so of the foreskin is removed in a process chillingly entitled circumcision. Has my circumcised tribunal been missing something all these years (I mean besides regular, wild passionate intense sex), because of the foreskin snipped and tossed in one of those hospital '"medical waste bags?" Tell us: Do you prefer cut or uncut cocks? Why or why not? Is there any difference in oral sex? Or intercourse? From Anon From Max From Clarissa From Carol From Anonymous From Elenor Maybe a cut cock is a smooth suck, but I also enjoy the very first suck of a layer or two of foreskin and the hidden erotic tastes lying in the folds. And cut v uncut in penetration? If I'm very wet then it doesn't matter a hoot, just as long as the foreplay has taken me higher and made me ready for a great fuck, and ecstatic climax. Page: 1 | 2 |

Cameron reported good sizing at the beginning of the deal.
"we're really surprised at how nice the size has been at this juncture."
Quality also has been outstanding, with brix levels in the 16-19 range on most fruit, Cameron said.
At the end of April The Flavor Tree was marketing brooks and a proprietary Sequoia variety, Cameron said. Tulares, yosemites, corals and other varieties were expected to following beginning the week of May 6.
The company should begin seeing bings in volume by the end of May, Cameron said.

The city Health and Hospitals Corporation this week announced a Mother's Day breast cancer awareness campaign that asks Queens women to dedicate their mammograms to a loved one during the month of May, to stress the importance of annual mammograms and preventive screenings.
The "I Dedicate" campaign will feature more than 90 educational and cancer screening events at HHC hospitals and health centers, including the two in Queens, where women over 40 will be urged to schedule a mammogram. The campaign also encourages women to visit HHC's social media pages on Facebook and Twitter or an HHC facility to dedicate their mammograms to a family member or loved one in their lives.

You're forgiven if you have no idea who the hell David Anderson is, and more importantly, why you should care about him. But for the purposes of this daily update showing how those brave little NFL players are financially clawing their way through the lockout, just know that he's a Houston Texans wide receiver who had 11 receptions last year, and has three career touchdowns over five seasons.
Anderson waited until the seventh round in 2006 to be selected by the Texans, and is set to make $1.44 million next year during the final season of a two-year contract extension. On the surface that seems like a pretty sizable chunk of change by normal human standards. But around NFL pocketbooks it's about enough to do one load of laundry, especially since players on Anderson's level certainly aren't making guaranteed money.
So in a unique profession–one that pays well, but has nearly zero job security–during a unique time in league history, Anderson has taken a frugal approach to living. That becomes pretty clear during his homemade version of MTV Cribs in which Anderson gives us a tour of his Manhattan Beach condo.
The bathroom is the major selling point, along with the guest accommodations.
Thanks for the latest in NFL homes, Paul Kuharsky.

Three Things Federal Government Agencies Must Know About Human Capital Management Technology
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) HERNDON, VA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/28/13 -- Join Meridian Knowledge Solutions and Brandon Hall Group for a free, one-hour webinar on January 31, 2013, from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. EST to learn how federal human capital management technologies and services are changing to meet the fiscal pressures, new policies and difficult tasks government agencies now face.
For example, the Obama administration has pushed for a move to cloud computing to cut technology and support costs and provide agencies with a common infrastructure. The GAO reported in July 2012 that federal agencies have made progress implementing OMB's "Cloud First" policy. And Government Technology magazine reports that a cloud policy will shape the future of IT management in government. But what does the move to cloud computing mean in practical terms for federal agencies and the people they serve Stacey Harris, vice president of Research & Advisory Services at Brandon Hall Group, will lead a panel discussion on the changes and future opportunities for government agencies with the following experts: Sean DuGuay, director, Business Development, CGI Federal Solutions Terry Miller, COO of federal government operations, Visionary Integration Professionals Geoff Perry, director of Software Development and Hosted Solutions, Meridian Webinar takeaways will include: Learn the difference between IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS Understand the fundamental elements of an integrated Federal HCM solutions Get examples of integrated federal solutions "Cloud computing is just one of the technology shifts that government agencies are now making a part of their strategies," said John Leh, vice president of Sales and Marketing for Meridian. "The 'cloud' can actually increase the security of information systems for government. But, for that to happen, it's important to have certain policies and procedures in place before an implementation; you also need assurances that your vendor is complying with government security requirements."

British Open might move tees for wind
SANDWICH, England -- With strong wind set to cause havoc at the British Open, organizers said Wednesday that some tees may have to be brought forward at Royal St. George's to make the course playable.
Gusts of up to 30 mph are forecast for the first two rounds on Thursday and Friday. Depending on wind direction, it will make some fairways unreachable off the tee for many players.
Royal and Ancient chief executive Peter Dawson picked out the par-5 No. 7 and the short No. 11, which is 243 yards from tee to green, as two of several holes that could be modified.
The Open Championship on ESPN
All four rounds of the year's third major will be shown on ESPN and ESPN3.com -- check out which players are paired together for Saturday's third round. Tee times
"We do have some wind issues out there," Dawson said. "We made the players aware at the start of the week that some tees may be moved up and they were invited to practice off forward tees if they wished. I think players should be able to reach the fairway and reach the par 3s, frankly."
Otherwise, the course was described by R&A championship committee chairman Jim McArthur as "in terrific condition" and by Dawson as "right up there with the best."
"We believe that Royal St. George's is a true Open Championship test," McArthur said. "It's very much based on strategic play rather than muscle power."
Conditions should be easier than in the 2003 tournament at Sandwich, when players were critical that the rough, which gobbled up errant drives, was too thick.
As a result of the dry spring in southeast England, Dawson said organizers had been concerned there would be nearly no rough at all. Recent rainfall has calmed their fears.
"We've always said we take what nature gives us, but fortunately we've had some rain ... which has been sufficient to rejuvenate the golf course and the amount of rough we have out there is pretty close to what we would like," Dawson said. "It's not as thick as it might have been but it's good playing conditions. We're happy with it."
American Ben Curtis was the only player to finish under par in 2003, and Dawson said he doesn't expect particularly great scoring this time.
"This course, I think, needs more knowing than most because there are more slightly blind shots here, the kicks off the fairway ... you need to know them," he said. "Like all the links courses, it's very wind-dependent how it plays.
"I don't think we're going to get particularly low scoring here this week, especially with the wind up. The course is tough."
Dawson said, based on advanced ticket sales and indications on practice days, he anticipates bigger crowds than in 2003, when about 185,000 spectators came through the gates.

So I just joined the forum today because I had a few questions, and I find you're all getting together about five minutes from me. As it is such short notice I don't have much to bring, but maybe I can interest someone in a few red cherry tomato seedlings (I filled a bed yesterday and have two pots, of five seedlings each, left over) in exchange for an artemisia Powys Castle and some mint. Would that be okay? I also posted this on the original Swap thread. |

You nailed it, Mel ---ONLY if she takes at least one plant from everyone..... |

I loved the location, cleanliness, friendliness, and breakfast.
Liked everything.
The room was large, very comfortable, great mattresses and pillows. aThe staff were all very friendly and cordial.The breakfast was really great. Good scrambled eggs, sausage links very good and excellent coffee. also good orange juice.
The room was very clean. The breakfast bar had a great variety and all items were fresh.
The pool was advertised as 'heated.' It was not. We could not swim due to coolness of water. The front desk staff were kind of aloof.
It's right on the beach! Nice pool bar and two pools.
Food was expensive and not that good. I recommend eating off of the island for better selection and prices.Beds in the room were too small.
My family enjoyed the beach. It was steps from our room.
The room was rundown, in disrepair, and filthy. The only positive was that the beach was steps from our room. However, the next day, we stayed in a resort that was also on a beach, had countless more accomodations and better location but cost less.
It was very nice for a 2.5 star hotel. Comfy bed, tv was nice. Clean and updated bathroom. Breakfast was great. Very good experience for a one night business stay
nice room and facility
A little farther from place I was working
The pool and beach facility at Lido is perfect
Staff is excellent. Very nice hotel.
Nice staff
First room I had had several roaches in it . Got a room change and looked ok. Woke up at night and had bugs all over the nightstand
Nice hotel, good location quiet and clean. They accommodated our request for early check-in. When booking on line, make sure you follow up with a call if you're bringing a pet. There is no place to indicate that when making reservations.
I liked the hotel, but hotel.com didn't allow anyplace to indicate I was bringing a pet. I had to cancel the first reservation I made because the website indicated pet friendly, but they didn't accept pets.
Staff and the brand and the place was super clean
Wish it was located downtown Srq
Clean great staff and it's located just a minute from the most important art areas of Sarasota
That I did not have time to stay longer!
Everything was just perfect, from the front desks to room from breakfast to location. You won't be disappointed.
Could not find nothing wrong.
close to where I needed to be
room was dirty (bath and phones)
Not really. Just old and dingy. Has the appearance of not being clean. Night clerk was rude.
The staff was very friendly.
I checked in as a solo traveler. The hotel is old. Pretty creepy. Could hear someone talking in another guest room. I was so creeped out I didn't stay the entire night. Sorry to say, but not a good experience.
It was not bad. It is a good place to stay and cheap.
I found a dead cockroach on the floor.
Nice Rooms. Free Breakfast.
Fire Alarm went off twice at very inconvenient times.
great location, like I stepped back in time ( no high-rise buildings) could walk to everything
The location was wonderful being right across the street from the beach.
It kind of reminded me of a motel 6. It was nice enough but just did not live up to what my expectations are for a 3 1/1 star motel.
Here's why:
We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

archers are the worst.
Printable View
archers are the worst.
As soon as I get the veteran helmet, I'm never playing archer again.
I like man with some arms but vanguards is so much easier to use I'm wondering if its even worth sticking with him.
Man with a head is a good class. He at least has the super high-tech anti-archer device known as the shield. The vanguard only has a smoke pot. It obscures archers' vision... until they have the mind to take three steps to the side to see around it.
Wait, vanguards smoke pot? Cool and realistic game.
vanguard is the class all the new guys play because it takes like no skill.
you've been smoking too much of that hobbit weed
Its completely legal in the middle east... earth.
Only up to a point. New vanguards eventually get to the point where they realize random horizontal slashing kills teammates more often than enemies. Then they discover the mouse wheel, they play worse for about two matches, adjust their mouse sensitivity to better follow circle-strafing MaA's, and suddenly, they realize it's easier to win if they make full use of all the skills available to them.
/is a vanguard
Btw guys hotline miami is on sale and it is a truly incredible game. Even if you're not a cactus fan you should pick it up.

11.5.2010 Audi A3 Sportback 1.4 TFSi review
Audi's compact executive model, the A3, matches proven style and quality with some impressive motorsport developed technology to show that petrol engines are by no means beaten in the war with diesel; well, providing you don't drive quickly. A spirited run saw just 32.1mpg, and a gentle one near 45mpg. With build quality to rival a tank the A3 bring prestige motoring to those who don't need a big car. The A3 is available in three-door, five-door and cabriolet body styles with a choice of eight direct injection FSI and TDI engines.
Review by Russell Bray for WhatGreenCar.com
Despite only a 1390cc petrol engine under the bonnet the A3 keeps up with traffic fine thanks to turbo-charging. The engine is almost 10bhp more powerful than the 1.6-litre FSI one it replaces. There's 80% of the 147 lbs/ft of torque available from 1,250rpm but you still have to rev it to make it come alive with maximum power (123bhp) not arriving until 5,000rpm. Thankfully it sounds good when you do. With 1320kg to haul, acceleration from rest to 62mph takes 9.8 seconds. Top speed is a more than adequate 126mph.
Audis don't tend to have the balanced feel of some rivals but this car was pleasingly less inert than some versions though the ride, presumably set for Germany's billiard table surfaces, is not only stiff but can jar over ruts and potholes. Response to the steering is measured and precise but there's not much feeling transmitted of the grip under the powered front wheels. No issues were found with the braking (road driving only).
Audi sells its five-door versions of the A3 under the Sportback badge and with its relatively long and low roofline that seems fair enough. Apart from the big, single panel front grille with its familiar four rings the car is pleasingly understated, especially in some darker colours. Five-doors makes life easier but often looks makes cars look staid, something Audi's designers have managed to avoid. Length: 4292mm. Width 1765mm.
Audi's deserved reputation for some of the best interiors in the business is sustained with the A3. Some people might find the seats narrow on the hips and the rather blank radio looks better at night when it is lit by restful red lighting.
There's an extra notch on the rotary light control so you can switch off the daytime running lights if you wish. Instruments are quick to read. A well-shaped leather rimmed steering wheel and gear lever add to the quality appeal. Powerful headlights excellent for cross-country driving.
Official figures: Urban 38.7mpg, extra-urban (some out of town) 57.6mpg, combined 48.7mpg. My real world road test consumption saw 36mpg round town and 43.8mpg overall. Carbon dioxide emissions of 134g/km put the A3 Sportback in band E at an annual road tax of £120. Insurance group 11. Warranty covers three years/60,000 miles.
Sleek aerodynamics and direct injection engine technology that helped Audi to multiple wins at the Le Mans 24 hour race account for the A3 TFSI's efficiency and low fuel thirst. A gear change indicator encourages early upshifts to take advantage of the engine torque and a recuperative braking system charges the alternator. This saves energy in the battery, so that when accelerating it reduces load on the alternator, for a fuel saving of up to 3%. Stop start reduces fuel consumption in town traffic.
Reasonably good with electric windows/mirrors, power steering, alloy wheels, air conditioning, radio with CD player, anti-lock brakes, split-folding rear seats (which boost carrying volume from 370 litres to 1,100litres) and a good complement of airbags and traction and stability systems. But it's easy to spend more. Metallic paint is £500, cruise control – very useful in speed-limit mad Britain - £215, rear parking sensors £300, leather seats £1,000 and satellite navigation £50.
Model tested: Audi A3 Sportback 1.4 TFSI Sport
Body-style: Five-door hatchback
Engine/CO2: 123bhp 1.4 litre petrol / 134 gCO2/km
Trim grades: Standard, Technik, SE, Technik SE, Sport, S-line, Quattro, Quattro Sport
On-road price: From £16,320 (1.6 5-door). Test car £18,620
Warranty: Three years/60,000 miles
In the showroom: Available now
Review rating: 4.0 STARS

Seattle's innovations: Why can't we get more satisfaction from our success?
"Innovation" is the buzzword of the moment, at least in business. Seattle is celebrated as a place that fosters innovations that catch on around the world, from Boeing's jets to Microsoft's software to Amazon's online retailing. The Bezos family has funded a shrine to innovation at the Museum of History & Industry that tracks Seattle's penchant for breakout businesses and inventions, from Starbucks espresso drinks to K2 skis.
We've had other kinds of innovators here, too: John Cage and his modern music, Mark Tobey and his modern art, the music of grunge, which, although it made money, did so while eschewing the corporate music industry, popularity and materialism itself. The soundtrack of that collision of art and success was reflected in Kurt Cobain's suicide just over 20 years ago. The bench in Viretta Park is not just a memorial to someone who died for his art, but someone who may have died, at least in part, because of the problematic nature of his art's popularity.
There is a palpable tension in Seattle between innovation and art. Innovators, we're told, like to be in creative places. According to Margaret O'Mara, a University of Washington professor who studies high-tech economies, innovation hubs are urban, attractive, stimulating environments where different kinds of minds and ethnicities can rub off on each other. Seattle is booming and growing faster, for the first time in decades, than its growing suburbs. Developers are transforming parts of the city into what they hope will be hubs for innovators; thus the transformations of South Lake Union, SoDo, Capitol Hill, Fremont and soon, the University District, where applied research will meet light rail.
But innovation in the modern sense has an Achilles heel. While it generates prosperity — especially billionaires — it exacerbates income inequality. There are reverberations: gentrification, displacement, the loss of affordable housing and workspaces for artists and other "innovators" who aren't in it for the money. The current march toward a $15-per-hour minimum wage and the demand for more low-income housing — even microhousing — are part of calls to redress growing burdens for the have-nots in the innovation economy.
You can see the process at work on Capitol Hill, where even urban boosters are being flummoxed by the dizzying growth and change. Business folk in Pike/Pine complain about the invasion of the Amazonians, who are helping to drive out artists as rents rise and low-cost retail and studio spaces are replaced by pricey high-rises. The original appeal of Seattle's great creative hub is threatened by its success.
In San Francisco, activists have loudly protested the transit system set up for Google employees. Protesters here have also spoken out against Microsoft's Connector transit system. The concern is that wealthy innovators are opting out of inadequate public transportation systems and that the cities are entrenching a two-tiered system: one for rich techies, one for everyone else. The Connector, some argue, is a disconnector.
The troubles in San Francisco have acted as a warning for Seattle. The growing class divide, and anger, are getting attention, but solutions remain elusive. With a regressive state tax system that puts most of the burden on Washington's lowest earners, getting at the money issues that produce income inequality is difficult. If you make it more expensive to develop housing, if you raise regressive taxes to pay for parks or transit or education, you make it harder for artists, writers, musicians, educators, social reformers, performers, in short, for innovators who are not first and foremost monetarily motivated.
That, in turn, erodes the environment that supposedly drives profitable innovation: a city where all kinds of creative people can flourish. For much of the 20th century, Seattle had a civic ethic of egalitarianism that eschewed wealth and promoted a bungalow culture of modest, do-it-yourself living. We need innovative thinkers to figure a 21st-century way out of the vicious cycle of income inequality. We need a way to build a fairer city that doesn't soil its own nest with "success."

I find it ironic that the top photo of the Capitol Hill Block Party, an event designed to represent Seattle's "vibrant arts scene" is run by a guy who is actively opposing the minimum wage. (David Meinert. See: http://www.supportseattleworkers.com/list.html) I'd love to see some editorials/articles that focus on what is being done to HELP artists live in Seattle, such as Artspace Inc, (http://www.artspace.org/) which has at least 4 artist live/work buildings in the Puget Sound Region and a new one just about to open in Mount Baker next to the Link Station. (http://www.artspace.org/our-places/artspace-mt-baker-lofts) Artist housing and transit-oriented development in one project! Why not expand this program ten-fold and make low income housing actually WORK for neighborhoods rather than being a liability? Of course Seattle is turning into San Francisco. It is the way of capitalism. Edward Abbey — ''Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell.''

Slabman--There is nothing inappropriate about referencing David Meinert (even obliquely) in this article. By opposing the minimum wage superhike, Meinert is also opposing a very regressive means of furthering the goals of political progressivism. I'm already seeing price hikes at some Seattle venues I go to--just recently made--which could very well be in anticipation of the law that will start going into effect a year from now. If you think that billionaires like Howards Schultz are going to pay for this superhike out of their own pockets rather than passing the increased costs onto their customers (who come from all economic backgrounds, including low-income), then you're living on a different planet from the rest of us. The transfers of dollars to make this superhike possible will be every bit as regressive as a sales tax.
Posted Tue, Jul 8, 8:25 a.m.
Oh my God; will the bleeding hearts ever be healed? Private companies that cannot rely on city and county transportation services do what any brilliant company does: do it themselves.
Your conclusion that a company providing their own transportation is somehow eating away at the success of city and county transportation is ludicrous. Why not tell the truth: you want "rich people" to suffer with the same terrible service that "poor" people receive. (If we all can't be equal financially, at least we will all suffer equally).
Battering the success. That is the problem with Seattle. "If I/We/Us-all cannot have our cut of your success, then off with your head!"
Stop complaining about "big business" ruining the place, or Californians, or "our own success"; put the blame where it belongs: our own overly Utopian fantasy of how we all should receive what is due.
Art finds a way, a space, a patron.
Logic inequality is what you need to focus on.

Every "good" factor Mr. Berger identifies is another step toward unsustainability or temporary indulgences provided by an industrialization enabled by rapidly depleting resources which also degrades all forms of life-supporting ecology. But he is right about the bad. He needs to dig a little harder to understand the cause and effect of it though.

It's true -- the rich ARE assholes:
The tag line there is awesome: tax 'em.
Of course the democrats here won't do that. They suck up to the rich and big corporations.
"I am a democrat, of the 'Tax the Poor' party.
"I always will strive for more sales taxes and car tab taxes, as those taxes target most heavily minorities, young households of modest means, the underemployed, and the disabled. My party in Washington won the race to the bottom of the states on that score ( http://www.itep.org/whopays/ ). Now we must put space between us and the rest of the states."

What we need is some spirit of the potlach, the chiefs of the local economy giving gifts just for the sake of it. I am not talking about "measurable results" social investment philanthropy, though that has a place. Rather than only "giving away" their money to their foundations which they still control, investing the endowments in the stock market and distributing the investment earnings, people who got it should just open their moneybags and start to hand it out freely. In the spirit of the native chiefs.

If we raise taxes to pay for education, we make it harder for educators.
Well ain't that a bitch!
Sorry, Knute, not buying your convenient canonizations.
Posted Tue, Jul 8, 9:40 a.m.
What we need is for each person to create as much value for Seattle as he/she takes out of it. This is where Berger and most left-wingers go off the rails. Collective action only works if each person contributes as much as he/she receives. For those not capable, allowances are made. This is just human nature. But why do those not "monetarily-motivated" feel entitled to monetary subsidies? One does not need to be "monetarily-motivated" to cope, simply competent and perhaps a bit entrepreneurial. A good artist, writer, musician, performer, educator, or social reformer can make a decent living because they are creating something of value for which people are willing to pay. Bad ones cannot, and therefore need to do something else in order to pursue their avocation. That is life.
Many call Washington state's tax system regressive. I say that it is based on the notion that people should pay for the services they consume, which preserves the greatest amount of freedom and choice for everyone.
Spend more time agitating for public services to be more efficient and consumer-friendly, rather than decrying private competition, and we will all be better off.

I realize Knute probably did not write the lead but "satisfaction" is a hard thing to measure even if you have the resources of the US Census (as I recall they do ask a question like that). We are growing too fast, that is almost indisputable and that is directly or indirectly contributing to the complaints above. Our City can only try to accommodate growth and City Hall is trying…. people would be no less outraged if they tried to somehow stop it.

Hard to be satisfied with massive Californication that is driving most with less than a median income to Lynnwood, Federal Way, Renton, etc., unless they're willing to downsize their life to an apodment.

About the game: Hey, even Detroit beat them at their home right? Needless to say anything else, must win..
Is this an old version of Bynum behind his back?

I am worried that Holiday's size is going to both Mo a lot this game. I wonder if Kanter will play much this game. I don't see any good matchups for him.
Always remember that you are absolutely unique.
Just like everyone else.

Jazz by 17 and Favors dominates!
Kanter has a better game.
Mo has an efficient game.
Whoever said Holiday will scorch us is right. Also, addictionary, what's with that Brooklyn Nets avatar?
Jazz win by a last second wheezy.
Favors dominates in the paint, but our shooters almost shoot us out of the game.
Do I get to play more than 3 minutes tonight?
Sean Elliott spent most of Spurs-Jazz talking about Gobert as if he were Godzilla. And he wasn't really wrong.
Evan turner is going to have a massive game!
