If you pay attention to the news it all, you likely saw that Disney World has raised prices (again), and a one day ticket to the Magic Kingdom now sits at an all-time high of $99 + tax for those aged 10 and up. In reality, this is just a $4 increase, but that is a bunch of money all-in to have some fun at the Mouse House. Reminds me a lot of the cost of lift tickets… Of course, most people don't go to Disney for one day, so your per day cost is lower than that via the multi-day tickets, but it isn't inexpensive by any stretch.
I'm not the kind of mom that thinks Disney should be the only place our family goes every year, but I'm also not the kind of mom that thinks it sounds terrible and should be avoided at all costs. We've been to both Disney World (several times) and Disneyland, and hopefully have several more trips in our future. It's pretty fun and obviously a very family friendly destination.
With this price increase, I think it is a good time to review some ways to save when going to Disney World.
Subscribe to Mouse Savers monthly newsletter for discounted park tickets:
The newsletter comes out on the 15th of each month, so you need to plan accordingly and subscribe in time to get it the next month. They provide a private link to Undercover Tourist who is an official seller of Disney tickets at the lowest prices that are publicly available (that I know of) when you use that link.
Here's an example of a few of their prices:
Adult Five Day "Magic Your Way" ticket $290.95 ($323.76 from Disney)
Child (3-9) Five Day "Magic Your Way" ticket: $270.95 ($302.46 from Disney)Adult Park Hopper Five Day ticket: $341.87 ($387.66 from Disney)
Child (3-9)Park Hopper Five Day ticket: $322.70 ($366.36 from Disney)
Their one and two day tickets are currently a couple of dollars less than buying at the gate. I have personally used Undercover Tourist myself for Disney tickets and they arrived on time and worked just fine for my family.
Sign up for a credit card that gives a large sign-up bonus that can be used for Disney tickets:
Some rewards credit cards offer sign-up bonuses that can be used as cash toward travel expenses. One current example is the Barclaycard Arrival Plus™ World Elite MasterCard® that provides $440 toward travel charges after spending $3,000 in the first 90 days (40,000 points for hitting the spending bonus, and then 10% of those points back to use once you redeem). The $89 annual fee is waived the first year. I imagine if you bought your Disney tickets through a travel agent they would code as a travel expense. They may even code as a travel expense directly from Disney. If you included them with a hotel or other package I think you would also safely be in the clear as having them be a "travel" expense. I think this is a great way to knock some of the cost off of a family Disney trip.
Buy tickets that never expire and save days unused for a future trip:
Warning: This tip is only for the well organized family as it will be a waste of money if you can't keep up with your tickets. Most multi-day Disney ticket purchases expire within 14 days from the date the ticket was first used, but you can pay extra to get a version that never expires. For example, from Undercover Tourist you can buy a 10 day "Magic Your Way" ticket that never expires for $ 678.95. Disney tickets only get pricier each year, so in theory you could use the days you want for your trip this year, and then save the remaining days for a trip in a future year. That way you benefit from having the discount that comes from multiple days, and you guard against price increases in the coming years. Of course, you have to be willing to shell out a bunch of cash now, bank on going to Disney again in the future, and not losing your tickets.
Buy Disney gift cards at retailers that are part of a credit card's bonus categories.
You can get cash back or earn points on Disney expenses by buying Disney gift cards with a rewards earning card that pays a category bonus. For example, my local grocery store sells Disney Gift cards that can be used at Disneyland, Walt Disney World, Disney Cruise Line, Disney Store locations in the US, and DisneyStore.com. For example, if you bought the gift cards at a grocery store using the Blue Cash Preferred® Card from American Express that gives 6% cash back at grocery stores, up to the first $6,000 spent per year, you could save 6% on the Disney expenses you pay for with a gift card. I have also seen these gift cards at drug stores, and it wouldn't shock me if they were at other types of retailers as well. Saving 6% back isn't a ton, but every little bit helps with Disney charges that often are not discounted!
Tack the ticket cost onto your hotel stay and room charge.
I did this recently at the Hyatt Grand Cypress. There was a fee of a couple of dollars per ticket to do this, but it lumped it in as a hotel charge on my credit card so you could maximize with a card that gives a bonus at hotels. I paid with my Starwood Preferred Guest® Business Credit Card from American Express and earned one SPG point per dollar for the charge, but I also received a 5% statement credit for the charge thanks to the Amex OPEN program. I did not earn bonus Hyatt points for the room charge, but it's always possible that your luck may vary with that.
Other Ways to Save:
- Some AAA offices offer discount Disney tickets, but some don't offer Disney tickets at all. It is worth checking with your local AAA office to find out.
- If you are active or retired military you can get some great discounted Disney tickets for you and your family. I believe the current offer is a four day Park Hopper tickets for $169+ tax which is about half-off.
- Those who live in Florida and Disney Vacation Club owners can also have access to discounted tickets. I recommend heading to MouseSavers for more details for those two special groups.
New FastPass+ System:
While we are on the topic of Disney, I also want to mention that a new FastPass+ system is being "tested" (aka implemented) at Disney World. It involves reserving your FastPass times either when you arrive at the parks for non-Disney resort guests or up to 60 days in advance for Disney resort guests. The individual FastPass kiosks and paper FastPass tickets each attraction are becoming a thing of the past. You can read more about this change here. From what I have gathered, Swan and Dolphin guests can only do same-day in park Fastpass+ reservations in all the parks, but this seems to be a fluid situation.

For most families, the obvious solution to Disney's pricing (especially for Disney WORLD) is to go less frequently but stay longer. Disney is strongly incentivizing visitors to stay longer — like a week. They are dis-incentivizing short visits (3 days or less). A 10-day ticket is almost as cheap as a 3-day ticket!
This is not a bad thing if you're willing to roll with it. A longer visit to Disney is actually more pleasant than a short visit because there's less need to rush and cram everything in. There's plenty to do in Disney World for a week.
By far the best way to do Disney is with free Disney dining. There is not an offer currently available, but it is expected to return. See, for example:
Spending a week or more at Disney where you can get great and interesting meals and not really pay for them makes for a fantastic, good-value family vacation.
Your advice to buy no-expiration tickets isn't really valid anymore. Up until a few years ago, this was a fantastic loophole. You could buy a 10-day Disney World ticket and pay something like $50 for no-expiration. It reduced the per-day cost of visiting Disney to something like $30, and you could even use those days in Disney Land! Alas, Disney closed this loophole and now adds a very steep surcharge to no-expiration tickets, making the cost something like $70/day. You are MUCH better off keeping that money in your pocket and following my "go less frequently/stay longer/get free meals" strategy.
Ebates had a great deal going on earlier this week. They were offering 20% back on activities and Disney/Universal tickets were classified as activities. In addition, they had a "buy three day, get two days free" deal for Walt Disney World and a buy a 3 or 4 day ticket get an extra day free deal for Disneyland. I picked up Disneyland tickets for my family with this promotion. The gate price for our tickets would have been $1100, but between the promotion and increased Ebates offer, the total for our tickets was $806. Ebates is back to 10% for Orbitz, but I'm going to keep my eyes out for this to happen again to snag Walt Disney World or Universal Tickets.
You covered most of the ones I had thought of – especially using cards like the Barclay Card or the US Bank Flex Perks card to cover the ticket cost.
The other Disney-related tip I recently saw is that there are 2 Starwood hotels that are there on-property, so you can use points to cover your hotel expenses
Don't ignore the potential value in getting an Annual Pass. Depending on your visit plans, it could be much less expensive than getting two separate rounds of tickets. Plus, extra perks and discounts come with this passes that could make them even more financially attractive. Sometimes, getting one for a member of the traveling party can yield discounts for the entire group on rooms, merchandise purchases, etc.
Of course, like all option, it does depend on your circumstances.
And don't forget the Disney Debit card from Chase…
•Save 10% on select merchandise purchases of $50 or more at DisneyStore.com and Disney Store locations.
•Character Meet 'N' Greet at a private Cardmember location at Walt Disney World® and the Disneyland® Resorts. Get a complimentary 5 x 7 photo, too!

I am so glad you posted this today because we were discussing Disney World this week. We went back in 2001 with our boys that were then 6,8, and 12 years old. We all had 5 day Park Hopper passes that don't expire ever. We only used 4 days. Believe it or not, there was one day that we were on the way to the park and the kids started crying and begged to stay at the condo for the day because they were so exhausted from going from morning til night. So, we have a day left on all of our passes. The oldest son had an adult pass but the other two had children passes ofcourse. How do we handle this if we decide to go down to Disney this summer and use the passes now that they are all adult (18, 20, and 24) or can my husband and I go and use the passes and pay the difference in price that was paid on the children's tickets. I don't know if they really want to go. I definitely still have the tickets. I have kept them in a safe place ever since our trip. Thanks for any tips.
A few tips:
1) take a picture of the back of your disney tickets where the code is. that way if you lose them, disney can look them up and replace them.
2) we stayed at the dolphin recently, when they were testing fastpass+. As currently configured, think hard before spending the extra money on park hopper tickets. You only get 3 fastpasses a day in one park, so unless you are going to Epcot for dinner every night, a park hopper may not make sense. -
Buy Disney stock.
For World, buy 10 day non-expiration tix with fun add-on (allows access to places like the water parks)-that equals 20 days at Disney. Then break trips up over a decade or more (there are other things to see in Orlando, you know) and you still can enjoy at a decent price.
For Land, just get a set of multi-day tix when $ allows or during promos. Annual pass for us in Calif also works.
My DW frequently say 'shame on Disney' for pricing out many, many hard working families. For a family-oriented theme operation, they sure aren't keeping to the spirit.
Kathy & Winger —
Double check on Disboards, but Disney has historically allowed you to convert unusued days on a kid's no-expiration ticket to an adult ticket when they get older. I've done it, and it's obviously a nice perk.
Of course, this made the purchase of multi-day tickets a BONANZA a decade ago (you should have bought the ten day ticket :)). Alas, Disney wised up to this bonanza and closed the loophole. As I mentioned above, it's now generally bad advice to buy no-expiration tickets because they're taking on a huge surcharge — as opposed to the nominal fee that they charged in the past.
@winger13 I agree that Disney is outpricing families, but I suppose it is a case of supply and demand. They have a hot product and people are willing to pay. You have to religiously watch their deals. I would love to go this summer, but I can't justify a week's worth of time to do just that and the day rate kills me to pay.
We were able to take part in the Fastpass+ test in December. I loved being able to pick the attractions and time before hand, but didn't like that you only got one e-ticket (headliner attraction) per day. And you can only do one park per day. Happily, for now, both systems are still in place, so you can get regular Fasspasses in addition to the Fastpass+ selections.
I did see WDW cast members set up in front of guest relations to help Swan and Dolphin make Fasspass+ reservations, but I don't know what is involved in that process.
One of our strategies for maximizing our Disney budget is to buy annual passes. It can be a good value if you take a long trip each year. Just schedule your trip for one or two calendar weeks earlier the second year. We are DVC members, so we get a discount on annual passes. I haven't crunched the numbers on the regular priced passes vs. multi-day tickets. But if you're staying off site and driving, the free parking that comes with annual passes are an additional savings to factor in. The only downfall of annual passes is the urge to fit in little trips (and spend more money/points) throughout the year. It's addictive!
I also took advantage of the ebates shopping portal for the 20% back by buying through Orbitz. This has become a yearly trip for us. I opted out of the park hopper option this time. It can make sense for families with older kids to use. I originally purchased park hopper on a 10 day park hopper/water fun and more package. So far I've used the non expiration tickets for 2 trips. I still have four days left. One of my friends breaks the trip into 5 separate trips on the 10 day pass. That way, she gives herself and the kids a day off after each park. They spend the off day enjoying their resort. I lucked out and was able to buy the tickets before the price increase. On Sunday, I ended up purchasing the 10 day non expiration pass with the water parks. So, we'll have 20 days to enjoy Disney. In the past, I've used Undercover Tourist with the Mouseowner's link. This was a much better deal. Combine that with purchasing them with the Barclay Arrival card, it was a big savings.
SamL- Legacy Fastpass has been gone for a couple of weeks. It's all FP+ now. If you stay at a Disney owned hotel, you are able to book FP+ 60 days in advance. If you stay offsite (including Swan and Dolphin), you won't be able to book FP+ until you are in the park. This is something to consider when deciding to stay on or off property.
I had the bad luck of buying season passes today – $100 more today than yesterday for a family of four. Ahh well, you win some, you lose some.
I bought a lot of $15-$25 dollar cards at Office Max – and used the Disney Vacation Account (which gives $20 for every $1000 you add) – put in 3k for the annual passes. That returned $60 dollars in future giftcards and 15,000 points.
Every little bit helps. I'll value the 15,000 points at $300 bucks, so effectively 12% off on an annual pass. Might pay for a character dinner, as my three year olds definitely don't eat $20 worth of food.
If you are staying at the Swan or Dolphin and want access to FPP early early booking online/through app – book 1 night onsite at disney (campgrounds is cheapest). Buy tickets for number of days you are going – either through Disney or somewhere else. Link tickets into the My Disney Experience website and you now have access to book advance FPP reservations. It opens up with resort stay, and number of days to book tied to number of days on tickets. I am doing exactly this for Spring Break.
Also you can buy unlimited disney gift cards at Target with the Redcard for 5% off, only thing is the highest value is $50. Too much of a hassle for me :). -
So the greater debate here is wether or not to make it a lengthy vacation. It might be worth it to just do a longer stay here and then spend the rest of the time at the beach!

Hyundai Accent Hatchbacks
okie53 Posts: 10I've had my 2001 Accent for 3 months and just passed 10,000 miles (I commute to work). I'm absolutely delighted with the car. Did get a little wind noise around the driver's window; took it back to the dealer and they replaced the seal. The 1.5 engine has loosened up quite a bit and is surprisingly peppy. I am getting around 38mpg on the highway (70-75mph) and over 42mpg if I am not so lead footed (55mph). I am using Mobil1, hopefully I can get 150K out of the engine; I am looking forward to buying another Accent in '05.

richg4 Posts: 3I was wondering if anyone who owns an Accent has had a similar problem with there cars as I have. I have a 2000 Hyundai Accent GL, auto. I am taking the car in for its 3rd trip to the dealer concerning a strange problem with the transmission. Basically, when the vehicle is driven on say a long road trip at a steady speed the transmission makes a horrible thump and a sort of low-pitch sreach in the engine bay when I press on the accelerator to make the car down shift to pass another vehicle. The first time I took it in the dealer told me that it is normal and that all Accents do this and its just a design flaw. Then I took it to another Hyundai dealer and they told me that they couldn't duplicate the problem. Now I have an appointment to take it in for this, a vibration in the steering wheel at 70mph, a pulsating brake pedal,a drivers seat that makes a clicking sound in turns, and a glove box that is misaligned. Don't get me wrong I love my Accent and all these problems have just been mounting up and I haven't had a chance to take it in. My car only has 8200 miles on it and it seems strange to have all these things to take it in for. If anyone could let me know about the transmission thing that would be helpful. I suppose Hyundai's slogan is not a lie...."DRIVING IS BELIEVING"...that you got less quality than a Honda or Toyota.
lngtonge18 Posts: 2,228I adjusted the rubber bump stops and my short-term analysis is that it worked. I went over sharp ripples in the pavement at 50 mph that used to cause a slight audible shudder from the rear and this time, there was no sound. It seemed to be just as solid as a brand new car. Here's what I did: Look for the large rubber block right above each tailight assembly. 2 phillips head screws hold it in place. Remove the screws and pull off the bump stop. Install either one thick washer per hole or a few thinner ones per hole underneath the bump stop. Than reinstall the bump stop and the screws. Your done! The washers push the bump stop higher up so that it pushes more firmly against the upper hard plastic bump stop. This tighter fit forces the hatch to close tighter and thereby reduces the chances for audible rattles from hatch flex. You may have to trial and error the washer thickness based on how much slack you need to take up. Hope this helps all that are having hatch rattles.
On a side note, I also decided to try some insulation as a way of reducing interior noise levels at high speed. The front of the car is very quiet considering how inexpensive the car is, but hatchbacks are known for their greater noise penetration from the rear. I can attest to this as I lowered the rear seat while travelling at 80 mph (I was the passenger, LOL). The amount of road noise coming from the rear tires was quite amazing. The seat is able to block some of it, but it still can't provide the same isolation as an enclosed truck. The spare tire compartment is the thinnest layer of metal between the interior and the road. Because this compartment is enclosed inside the whole interior, it is the greatest cause of road noise penetration in a hatchback. As such, I decided to add a layer of Thinsulate insulation underneath the rear carpet and above the spare. I bent the layer in half so I could get double protection. So far, it seems to have lowered noise levels considerably. The rear speakers don't seem as drowned out by road noise as they were before. I think its a worthwhile addition for any hatchback, but especially for the L model as it only has a cheap thin layer of carpeting between the spare and the interior. Just thought someone might be interested in my findings. -
lngtonge18 Posts: 2,228I can't say for sure whether your auto tranny is behaving normally or not. I have only driven one automatic equipped car that also had a tachometer so I'm not very knowledgeable in this area. From what I remember, when I lifted off the gas of my 93 Mitsu Diamante, its rpms would drop down to 1200 or so immediately as long as the overdrive was on. If the overdrive was off, I think it would provide some engine braking and allow the rpms to stay ellevated. Other than that, I can't really say if what you are describing is normal. I personally think its sounds right.
lngtonge18 Posts: 2,228The tranny problem you describe does not sound right. The other problems aren't that big of a deal and occur in all cars, not just Hyundai. Wheel vibration at 70 generally means an out of balance tire, which is common on low-grade tires, or a bent wheel. The pulsating brake pedal is probably either a warped rotor or a bent wheel. Warped rotors are a common problem on all cars, including Honda and Toyota. A clicking driver's seat is hardly a concern, nor is a misaligned glovebox. I believe many 2000 Accents had the glovebox problem. Mine has it as well. I learned to live with it, keeping in mind that this is an inexpensive car. Someone I know bought a 2001 Acura CL and had to take it back after only 100 miles because it had a pull to the right. The dealer claimed it was normal but he pushed them to check its alignment. It turns out it was off slightly and they adjusted it. So if a 30 grand Acura has a problem right off the start, consider your small roster of minor annoyances after 8200 miles normal. The only real big concern is your transmission. Take them for a test drive and show them the sound yourself! That way they can't claim the sound is not reproducable. By the way, 2000 Accord V-6s were recalled due to a terrible thump from the transmission. So don't think Honda is immune from the same type of problems. I personally feel I got just as much quality as I would have from Honda or Toyota and for a much cheaper price to boot. Hope you get your problems taken care of.
kitten78 Posts: 2My boyfriend has a 2000 Accent and has been having nothing but problems with it. He is getting ready to take his car in for a third time in five months/5800 miles. The second time he took it in, they had to completely replace the transmission. We were out last night and the transmission started doing what it did last time, so he is taking it in again. What happens is when you accelerate, the RPM increases, but the speed does not. Has anyone else had this kind of transmission problems? If he has to take it in once more during the first year for the transmission, he's got a "lemon." It's just frustrating! I've owned Mazdas, Toyotas, and now an Oldsmobile without any serious problems, especially when it was new! I have had a 1998 Oldsmobile LSS for a little over a year now and have not had one problem with it, so I am starting to question the quality of Hyundai.
dbwells Posts: 44I know this is kind of stupid, but I have been following this board for a while now, and does it bother anyone else that the word Hyundai is spelled wrong in the topic title? Maybe we should all just drop this dead weight of old news and bad memories (as of late) and start a brand new thread - "Hyundai Accent 2"! We'd really be in the big league then, eh? Or maybe we should all just get together and start a new life . . . under the sea.
(I'm sorry, I am just bored and this is my lame attempt at humor. I am actually supposed to be working, so I better go.)

perry40 Posts: 94Hadn't noticed the mis-spelling ... One thing that bothers me regarding Hyundai products, is the fact that Hyundai automatic transmissions still seem to be prone to the same types of malfunctions that have been plaguing them for several years now ... if these problems are due to inherent design flaws in the unit, then you would think that these bugs would have been engineered out by now ... especially since it appears to be so common?
suds277 Posts: 1Hello. I am a high school senior and a first time car-buyer. I need a reliable car for college and have decided on the accent. the car i am looking at now is an automatic, with air, rear spoiler, floor mats and mud guards. the dealer will give me the car for $10,889 (there is a $500 rebate in effect this month). could you guys please tell me what you paid for your accents? do you think the price i was quoted is reasonable? Thanks for your help
kinghyundai Posts: 2Hi, I am looking to buy a 2000 GS Hatchback. My problem is, I won't be able to buy one till November of 2001. I don't think the dealers will still have the 2000 models anymore. Do anyone else think they will? I don't want to buy a used car, so what should I do? Someone please help! Thanks a lot! Carson
aldag Posts: 81I bought my 2000 Accent just a bit over a year ago now. I have the basic model equipped with AC and the manual shifter. At 12000 miles, everything is just fine at the moment. No trips back to the dealer for problems, so far. I drove off the lot, taxes, title, regie, and other charges included for $10700. I wonder if the prices have changed very much in a year?...
malaz002 Posts: 4I'm not sure whether you're still reading this forum, bobcook54, but do you have any additional information yet regarding the sporty upgrade the Accent is scheduled to receive this spring or summer? I'm seriously considering the purchase of an Accent GS hatchback with option package 3, but would be tragically disappointed if I bought one now and they came out with a "GSi-like" version a few months later. I will be grateful for any information you, or anyone else :~), can provide!
Cheers. -
lngtonge18 Posts: 2,228Kinghyundai: If you are waiting that long to buy an Accent, why not buy a 2001? The 2002 will already be out by November, so the 2001 models will be discounted. I don't see the point in buying a 2000 model as it will already be a used car by than.
suds277: Is that price out the door or before taxes and the other charges? If it's before taxes, than it is too high, especially when there is a $500 rebate. Don't let the dealer have the rebate!! Unless you are good at negotiating, they will try to get the rebate and up the price on your car. In other words, you will get screwed out of money that rightfully belongs to you. Just be very attentive about the rebate and where it really goes. -
iggy6 Posts: 7I am now an accent owner! 2001 1.3i auto. GB£7349. I think its great, and i like the challenge of keeping up and sometimes overtaking (!) other traffic while keeping the engine out of the i'm-going-to-explode-at-any-moment sounding rev range. Anyway, i get wind noise at 78+mph around the windscreen pillar, is that normal?
malaz002 Posts: 4Darn! Maybe I should go to Canada and get a GSi...
For essentially the same price, you get so much more (body color side mirrors, sunroof, premium wheels/tires, sport-tuned suspension, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, fog lights,etc.). Oh well.
Thanks for all your help, bobcook54. If you get any more info regarding the Elantra GT, would you mind posting it in that section?
Cheers to all! -

dbwells Posts: 44I don't know why they bother me so, but I guess I have just been raised to think about the worst thing a car can do is rattle. Drove my father crazy, and I have many memories of him banging around on the dash trying to locate them (not really sure what good it did).
Anyway, now it is the windows. We actually reached about 40F degrees (!) here in Michigan, and I actually felt the need to drive with my windows down for the very first time. Anyway, both windows rattle pretty good when about 1/2 way down. Of course, just about every road in Michigan is uneven pavement at this time of year. What I really want to know is, do others have this problem? I know perry40, you mentioned it a while back. Do you have power windows or standard ones? I have power windows in a 2001 GS, and just want to hear any comments from others.
Finally, I have never owned a car with a warranty before, and I don't really know what to expect. I know the manual says some vague comment about not being responsible for minor defects which don't effect the functioning of the vehicle, but they also want to make customers happy, right? Or not? I mean, is the dealer going to balk at me or think I am out of line if I ask him to fix this when I go in for a scheduled stop? Again, I confess my complete ignorance in any matters of this sort, and would very much welcome any comments or pointers.
iggy6 Posts: 7I've never owned a car with warranty before my accent and i asked what is covered, they said anything that does not perform its designed function properly, so if the windows are not designed to rattle then the repair is covered under warranty, i guess. (ps. are the windscreen pillars designed to be wind-noise-free up to 78mph only???)
lngtonge18 Posts: 2,228dbwells: My manual windows don't rattle with them halfway open. They are quite tight in their openings and require some effort to wind them down. The only time they rattle when halfway down is when you slam the door. Any justifiable complaint you have is covered under warranty and should be taken care of by the dealer. If they are that bad, take it in. It probably has a loose bolt or something.
iggy6: The A-pillars on any car makes noise at high speeds. It is quite normal. My Accent starts making noticeable wind noise right around 80 mph. Consider that good, because some cars start making noise before that. My 91 Nissan Stanza is godawful loud compared to my Accent (the mirrors whistle and lots of wind noise can be heard when u hit 70). Amazing that the Stanza passed as a mainstream family sedan back than. Cars sure have come a long way.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Just thought it might be useful if you're looking to study and improve
on that facet.
Well, as we have seen, the Democratic Party of Japan which came to power
last year in a surge of popularity against the Liberal democrats, who
had been in control of Japan for about 60 years previously, the DPJ is
now in serious trouble. They're facing the realities of wielding power
as opposed to being merely an opposition party. And what they've then
experienced is the resignation of their first prime minister. That is
obviously an unsettling experience for the party, which is now
scrambling to elect a new leader who can then be elected as the next
prime minister to lead the party forward and restore government to
Well we have seen Japan's prime minister, Yukio Hatoyama, resign and
he's says that he's taking the sec-gen of the Democratic Party with
him,. and that his cabinet will be resigning as well. So the Democrats
are now facing the first major leadership challenge, in terms of having
to scramble to restore leadership and get ready for elections in the
upper house next month.
Well the key here is that the Democrats are experiencing what the
previous party , the Liberal Democrats, were very familiar with, which
is a cycle of governments rising and falling, politicians whose
reputations wax and wane, and ultimately have to resign in a very short
time. In fact this is Japan's fourth prime minister in four years to
resign. And what that shows is the tumult that characterizes Japan's
domestic politics. Really that's an effect of the fcat that the
country's major political and economic and military conditions are very
difficult to change, so parties may rise and fall, but the country stays
on a relatively stable path.
When the Democratic party goes to choose their next leader, who is
likely to be the finance minister, Naoto Kan, they will then usher in
basically the last of the major founders of the Democratic Party. What
that means is that you've got - shit I'm sorry. Let me just try that
When the Democratic Party of Japan chooses their new leader tomorrow,
they will have a choice between the last of the founders of the party
and a new upstart dark horse candidate who is the head of the
environmental committee in the lower house. The interesting thing here
is that because the DPJ doesn't have an extensive list of experienced
and expert political leaders, they have to scramble a little bit to find
people who are suitable to lead the country. That's the real difference
between the DPJ and the previous party that they ousted, and it's
something they're going to continue to struggle with because
resignations are not uncommon in Japanese politics.
One of the useful things about watching Japan is being able to see how
domestic politics can really flurry around on the surface and not really
affect the deeper trends that are governing the course of the country
over time. With Japan, you have very clear constraints that are built
into its geopolitical condition right now, namely its enormous amount of
debt, government debt, which has constrained its economy and has
continued to be baggage that really no leader has been able to break
free from. And at the same time on the security front, Japan has not
really been able to carve out more independence from the United States,
as the DPJ has promised that it would. Some of that talk is merely
rhetorical, meant at aiming at the domestic audience, some of it has to
do with the fact that Japan's pursuit of greater independence can never
really clash with the U.S. alliance because ultimately Japan needs the
U.S. nuclear umbrella and support if it is to maintain its security in a
region that is very rapidly changing and is seeing the rise of China.
Well, the keenest foreign policy minds are behind the finance minister.
So if the party in a surprise move elects Shinji ... who is the
environment specialist, this would be a bit of a shock because really
very little is known about him, and he's untested as a leader. However,
Ichiro Ozawa, who is the real mastermind behind the DPJ, has now, after
announcing his resignation, has now put his influence behind this dark
horse candidate. The interesting thing to see there would be how much
that shakes up the factions within the DPJ and whether that leads to a
realignment of power within the party, because this is a party that has
been used to being in the opposition and therefore did not really have
to struggle with internal factions too much. Everyone was unified
against their greater opponent. Now that they're in charge, they're
experiencing that factionalization that has bogged down Japanese
politics for the better part of 20 years.
The critical things for Japan right now are getting a hold of its
economic recovery and trying to balance out both a sustainable recovery
and at the same time the enormous debt burdens that have to be
addressed. The Greek crisis and the broader European debt crisis have
really emphasized the dangers of allowing sovereign debt tot get out of
control. Japan is the world's leading debtor, it has a debt of about
200% of its GDP - much higher than Greece, for instance. What that means
is that Japan is going to now start looking to ways to seriously trim
that back. If they do not, or if they continue to go back and forth in a
kind of political game that never really sees any results, they really
may be facing a debt crisis sooner than they had imagined. So the
primary issue here will be to see how Japan sets about cutting expenses
and spending, and increasing taxes. In particular whether the DPJ has
the courage to increase sales tax.
The only other thing I would add is that the flurry in Japan's politics
that seems to be this endless shuffling of leaders is something really
you can observe in the earliest periods of Japanese democracy, in the
late 19th century and in the early 20th century. So what we're seeing
is a Japan that's in transition, and the movement of the parties is a
bit of a distraction from the underlying trends that are continuing,
which include Japan's greater involvement in defense matters is
international and global security and also this bid for Japan to find
ways to innovate and develop a new style of society when it has a
shrinking population and is struggling to maintain growth despite that
demographic crisis.

Poor service and horrable stay

Pleasant surprise as I typically stall at Holiday Inn express
January 01, 2015
Found a new partner after staying at this property. Typically never stay at the Candlewood Suite properties and this stay change that. Staff was superb and the value was far better than the Holiday Inn Expresses in the same market. Great location and great accommodations.
night in new braunfels

Room was comfortable and well appointed. We stayed in an accessible room and their was no shower curtain which seemed strange.
Comfortable Room
December 16, 2014
TV signal was excellent for large TV, about 40 inch. Fridge and microwave oven were helpful. Control on heat was good and the mattress was comfortable so I slept quite well. Room was spacious and there was plenty of hot water. Staff dropped the ball on replacing a light bulb, but this was minor.

Feb. 6 (Bloomberg) -- Bragg Communications Inc., a provider of television and telephone services serving Nova Scotia, Canada, is seeking $1.76 billion in loans.
TD Securities Inc., the investment-banking arm of Toronto Dominion Bank, is leading the transaction and will meet with lenders in Toronto today and in New York tomorrow, according to a person with knowledge of the matter who declined to be identified because the terms are private.
The transaction includes a $150.8 million revolving line of credit and $1.61 billion in term loans, all denominated in Canadian dollars, Standard & Poor's said in a Feb. 3 ratings report. Proceeds will be used to repay debt, purchase cable and telecommunications assets, and pay a one-time dividend to parent Oxford Communications Inc., S&P said.
The ratings company graded the new loans BB, two levels below investment grade, and assigned the company a BB- rating, three levels below investment grade.
Bragg has about $1.49 billion of loans and bonds maturing through 2014, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Drought, fire, flood, tornado, hurricane and sea level inundation all share a catalyst in common: greenhouse gas-driven climate change. As the intensity of atmospheric conditions increases, government scrambles to respond.
Recently, the White House released its National Climate Assessment, which outlines the climate change threat and makes the case for greater action toward environmental sustainability.
Local government hasn't waited for this latest report to take action.
Rather than depending on monopoly utilities, one valuable action-tool is Community Choice Aggregation, legislation that uses the existing power grid to empower communities' purchase of renewable energy to sell it to customers.
Marin Clean Energy, California's first CCA, offers 50-100 percent renewable power at costs currently cheaper than charged by Pacific Gas and Electric Co. Richmond joined it; Napa County is next; and San Francisco, Albany and El Cerrito contemplate joining. Sonoma County's own CCA went online in May.
Given the environmental threats we face and the possibility of giving consumers actual choice in their energy sources, one would expect such interest in CCAs.
On one side are those who have rolled up their shirt sleeves to get to work. On the other is PG&E; it continues to spend millions of dollars on buying influence and spreading misinformation about CCAs (such as its pitch that MCE's energy "is dirtier than PG&E" and that MCE "lies").
To maintain its monopoly, PG&E tries to eliminate competition by killing the CCA movement.
In 2010, PG&E spent $46 million trying to pass Proposition 16, which would have required a two-thirds majority vote to start a new public power agency. When voters rejected this, according to a state Public Utilities Commission report, PG&E spent more than $4 million in marketing attacks against MCE in 2011.
In the few weeks before Marin's Board of Supervisors' election, the union whose members work for PG&E disseminated a factually erroneous mailer attacking candidate Damon Connolly, MCE's chairman.
For a CCA to obtain start-up financing, and be fairly positioned to compete against the monopoly's domination, the law employs an "opt-out" system whereby customers who do not choose CCA service must affirmatively act to do so. Otherwise, they're "opted-in."
Assemblyman Steven Bradford, D-Gardena, a longtime defender of utility monopolies, recently introduced Assembly Bill 2145. It intends to kill CCAs by changing them from "opt-out" to "opt-in" systems.
Under the bill, a jurisdiction must solicit each customer individually to participate in a CCA. AB 2145 would be the death knell for CCAs in California. Bradford acknowledged this in his own committee comments.
When a colleague expressed concerns about AB 2145 inhibiting his own city's efforts to form a CCA, Bradford reassured him that as long as the city completed its CCA within a year, AB 2145 would not affect it. That's great for Bradford's colleague — but what about the environment and the communities that may not be able to complete plans in time?
CCAs reduce greenhouse gas emissions on a large scale and give customers a competitive choice in a monopolistic arena.
When cities are challenged to meet sustainability goals, Bradford proposes eliminating the best tool to achieve them. For these reasons, dozens of jurisdictions and the League of California Cities oppose Bradford's bill.
AB 2145 is a direct assault on the environment and consumer choice, serving only to defend the utility monopolies. The state Senate must recognize it as such and vote to kill this bill.
San Anselmo Councilman Ford Greene represents his town on the Marin Energy Authority board.

DirectX 12 Lies Dormant Within Microsoft's Recent Windows 10 Update 53

from the until-activated-by-a-trigger-word dept.
MojoKid writes After last Wednesday's Windows 10 event, early adopters and IT types were probably anxious for Microsoft to release the next preview build. Fortunately, it didn't take long as it came out on Friday, and it's safe to say that it introduced even more than many were anticipating (but still no Spartan browser). However, in case you missed it, DirectX 12 is actually enabled in this Windows 10 release, though unfortunately we'll need to wait for graphics drivers and apps that support it, to take advantage of DX 12 features and performance enhancements.

Watch: 'Broken Cycle' is a Sharp Drama About Stolen Bikes and Stolen Childhoods
Features By Scott Beggs on July 17, 2012 | Comments (2)Why Watch? A young kid's sneakers pound the pavement, running away from the bullies that stole his bike. As he rounds a corner, he tries to blend in with a group of thugs, and it works, but as he is welcomed into their group, he starts to understand the price of friendship. With crisp camera work (Zeiss lenses/Sigma 1.4) and a sound design that places you right on the streets if you close your eyes, Clifton Archuleta's short is an excellent portrayal of dangerous youth living in a world made difficult mostly by themselves. Ultimately, it's a story about choices and our power to make the difficult ones. What will it cost? Only 12 minutes. Skip Work. You've Got Time For More Short Films
Short Film Of The Day: Downpouring Emotion and an Struggling Old Fool in 'The Drought'
Features By Scott Beggs on March 26, 2012 | Comments (1)Why Watch? These days, getting noticed can often be a matter of having outrageous effects, a slick animation or a shocking idea that turns heads. Because that's become the norm, it's even more shocking when simple emotion hooks you without letting go. Jonas (Edmund Lyndeck, who's probably most famous as the crazy drunk in Big Daddy) is an umbrella salesman trying to make it through a rain-less summer and a loneliness filled with memories. For anyone who's ever had a sweet old grandfather who stuck to his antique guns even when modern times made him seem out-moded, Kevin Slack's short film is a celebration of faith and tenderness that also happens to be gorgeously shot. It's a short movie that quietly rises above a noisy fray. What will it cost? Only 10 minutes. Skip Work. You've Got Time For More Short Films.
