A good hotel with helpful staff who help with tickets for excursions.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Hides Hotel"
Staff was great. Location was centrally positioned. Room was a little bit small, only 2 of the 4 lightbulbs worked & by the last day only 1 worked. The shared bathroom was deteriorating, hot water came & went. The provided breakfast was cold cereal or hard boiled eggs. It was easier to get free wi-fi across the street at Woolworth's.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"It's okay, but I prefer better."
It is a barebones hotel located right in town. Pay internet that was unacceptable for my work. I check out the same day.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good deal"
Pretty good place, considering the low price and excellent location. It wasn't bad at all....very clean and updated bathroom and showers, and there's a sink inside the room. I had one of the remodeled original rooms that face the balcony. It was very spacious and the noise isn't too much of a problem...just bring earplugs for friday and saturday nights. […] Free wifi is available two blocks away at the Esplanade. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"beach motel"
Standard beach motel--tile floors, basic room amenities, nothing special. Good place for the price and location, easy to walk to the wharf where all sightseeing cruises leave from and many restaurants within walking distance.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Fantastic location"
Good value for money; nice free breakfast; friendly staff. Internet could also be free though.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"not impressed and nervous staying there."
stayed there one night. check in was 1pm but room was not ready yet when I arrived there. room was not very clean, water stains on the ceiling, lock on doors and windows did not seem secure. room was above Irish pub and was noisy. twin bed was uncomfortable. was awoken at 230 am by loud bang on my outside wall from someone throwing something at the […] wall. Pictures on site were much more flattering than reality. TV was about the same size as my laptop screen and did not have good reception(fuzzy picture and sound cutting out) It was one step up from a backpacker hostel. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"met our needs just fine"
This was a good location. We had a plane change into New Zealand, and needed an additional place to stay conveniently in AustraliaGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"close to all sights"
10 min walk to boat to get to reef, next to food and shopping, they are fixing the street right now, harder to access area, but not too bad. I think this area could be noisy in crowed season, but it was just what we were looking for while we were hereGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"excellent value"
very nice..convenient to everythingGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Bad choice"
About the best thing that I can say about this hotel is that I don't think my room had bedbugs (and, believe me, I checked for them). This could be a very charming old hotel in a convenient location near the CBD, so it's a real shame that it is so dirty and poorly maintained. My room was filthy and there was no maid service at all for the three nights […] that I stayed there. The mattress appeared to be about 40 years old and was quite lumpy. The phones and internet service weren't working and some of the hotel employees were very unhelpful. My room had a door to the second-floor balcony and one night there was a large, late-night noisy party right outside of it. If I hadn't pre-paid for my room, I would have found another place to stay, even if it cost substantially more. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"It's OK."
The Hotel is fairly friendly. Everything is OK. Good for price.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Nice place for what it is for; between a hotel and backpackers. Reasonable and clean for the situation. Know what you think is acceptable before you go there (shared bathrooms and such).Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great location and price!"
Perfect for our short stay in Cairns. Close to everything. Right behind the airport bus drop off and only 2 blocks from the Esplanade.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good bargin"
Small clean room. No private bathroom, public bathroom with entire floor. 4 showers, 2 toilets. Breakfast is better than I thought, coffee, juice, cereal, boiled eggs, toast. A café breakfast will add another $15 per day. So the included breakfast is a good deal. The neighborhood is surrounded by backpacker hostels and bars, so there are many young […] people staying around the area getting drunk and staying up late. Though I thought the hotel was quite.

"Beware: You get what you pay for"
There are several things to be ware of and I wish I had know this from reading the other reviews: 1. Shared BATH: means that six to seven people will be sharing a bath, shower and bathroom facilities. it does not mean you have a bathroom between a connecting room. 2. the cheaper rooms are musty and they tried to convert this to a room. and it is bad 3. […] The HOTEL is NOISY..the entire night. not from the partiers,,,you CAN hear the traffic outside all night long and you can never sleep. 4. I had a to pay extra money to upgrade Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Lovely location!!!!"
We loved it!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great location and good price!"
This hotel was a very good bargain. It is centrally located, has an excellent staff and has a historical connection to the city. If you want someone to make your bed or bring you towels, pay the $80 extra a night. I stayed for 4 nights and it was a very nice experience.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Easy to walk to transport area"s for atractions"
Ok for price....staff nice...maybe pay extra for updated room.had to carry bags up stairs for heritage room....room was cleanGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"affordable, convenient, historical"
Staff was friendly and helpful, historical hotel was fun, especially old elevator. Location very convenient to wharf, shops, restaurants, car rentals, tourism, etc. Price was economical and it was neat and clean.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Best Value Hotel for People Watching!"
This is the most convenient hotel in Cairns, centrally located and very spacious. Loved the veranda from which I can eat breakfast, sip my drinks, and watch the parade of characters that turn Cairns into a daily festival. The room was fairly small and the bed was right under the AC unit. A single push and the bed relocated to a more suitable side of […] the room. The floors are tile and the bed is on roller - too simple! the front desk staff were harried but still polite and I found them always helpful. I walked everywhere and found so many things to do I need to return for a week. The metro bus service main terminal is just outside the hotel, making connections to anywhere a snap. The large Woolworths right across the street has everything I required - from clothes and souvenirs to food and drinks. Couldn't be easier! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Think before you book"
The room was not as clean as it might have been. The area is very noisy all night long.Genuine Expedia guest review
"You are getting what you pay for."
while the location can't be beat (although if you are on the weekend, expect it to be loud outside) the first room that they gave me, was un maid. The second while it was made... is closer to a 1-2 star rating. The wifi was down, but the Internet cafe downstairs was still working. The breakfast that was included was a plus. If you want a inexpensive […] hotel in the heart of the downtown area, then this is what you want. Just don't expect any frills. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Well worth the stay"
I rated this at slightly above average hotel (3.6 of 5). 1 being horrible, 3 average, and 5 way above average. The staff was friendly, kind, and helpful. It is what I expect for the price range. The minimal continental breakfast was very appreciated. I highly reccomend this place due to its location and pricing is good.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good location"
Will come back again with my friendsGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Best Cairns budget hotel"
I am a regular visitor to this hotel which is probably the best budget hotel in the center of Cairna. Close to everything and 2 block walk to The beach front Esplanade. Main bus terminal is right at the front door. P J O'Briens Pub is around the corner in the same building and the currency exchange next door to the pub gives good rates with no commission. […] My complimentary breakfast on the great outside deck overlooking the main square provides toast and cereal and is enough to start the day. My main complaint always is the terrible internet service. Most rooms don't pick up the signal and you need to go to the breakfast deck or the lobby to connect - a big inconvenience. However, other than ther internet issue, it's a thumbs up for the Hides - great value - great location. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Love Hides Hotel!!!!"
My husband and I loved Hides Hotel. The staff was absolutely wonderful, the location is the best in Cairns and we got a deal that couldn't be beat. We loved sitting on the veranda overlooking the square with our wine after a long day of sight seeing. We stayed 9 nights and hated to leave.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good for the backpacker crowd"
Checked in and checked out immediately. Shared bathroom, no air-conditioning, old hotel. Would recommend for a college age backpacker who wants a private room and a clean bed and doesn't mind sharing a bathroom with others (ie this is similar to a hostel) .Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Great location close to the beach and supermarket"
All the staffs are super kind and considerable. Big thanks for Sharon for helping us sort out the problem due to our flight cancellation . reasonable price and breakfast included . Definitely will come back again !Genuine Expedia guest review

The location is perfect, the room is all right but the breakfast is poor.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Cheap and Friendly"
Service was friendly. Aircon in room was broken had a bad nights sleep glad it was only an overnight stay. Although I would stay again at a price of $70Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good above basic accommodation, great location."
Had a single room, comfortable bed, the room as clean and toilets across the hallway from my room. Quite location even in the middle of town, very handy to everywhere you want to go by foot. The included brekky was very good with a selection that suited most. The staff I met were very helpful and polite. If you want more than basic accommodation this […] is the place to go. I'll go back again no problems. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not recommended"
The bathroom was not cleaned properly. There was mold on the ceiling. The building needs renovation urgently.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Grand ole dame in centre of Cairns"
Great value Great location Grand old building Much better business stay than more modern away from centreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Everything went well but the noisy night"
Stayed there for five night. Excellent location, easy to go anywhere. However, as described by other tourists stayed there, the noise outside made me very difficult to fall asleep.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Colonial charmer"
Manager originally allocated us a small room but graciously upgraded us to a larger, more comfortable room when we questioned him. Loved the complimentary breakfasts on the wide, Colonial style verandah. Very convenient, could walk to everywhere in downtown Cairns.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
It was comfortable and the air conditioner worked with out any noises..! Would stay again if in Cairns. Breakfast was great...!!!! Love it guysGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great "olde Fashioned" experience"
Helpful friendly & mature reception personnel. Stayed in heritage section, king size comfortable bed with ensuite, clean tidy, plenty of room, all good. Had a ton of fun operating the "olde lift". Breakfast was simple, plenty of boiled eggs plus cereal, toast etc. Very central location. PJ's Irish bar around the corner (below) absolutely perfect for […] Guinness lovers, very reasonable cost for a pint. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"It's OK for an economic vacation in the area."
For AUD$100 a night with free continental breakfast, including cup of noodle, this Hides hotel is fine for the area. We travel three people and they added an extra bed without extra charge, which is unusual in Australia. The room is pretty large and the bed is a little noisy with the cheat bed frame, I guess.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Central but noisy"
You get what you pay for- staff were friendly / room was basic but clean/ it is central but very noisy if you get a room looking out onto the street. The terrace for breakfast is niceGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Bit of noise but what a spot."
Great position. Room basic but very clean and all we needed. Opened onto verandah overlooking main street. Heard some revellers late but that comes with the scenery. Basic breakfast but good solid start to the day. IGenuine Hotels.com guest review

This marvelous hotel exceeded EVERY expectation I had and the CLUB ROOM STAFF, led by Chelsea, made the stay even MORE enjoyable ... the bar staff, led by Angelica, also provided an OUTSTANDING experience leading me to recommend this property VERY HIGHLY to anyone and everyone traveling to San Antonio ...

Rated 4 out of 5 by Lingbam2213 The Staff was Excellent...
We stayed at the Gunther and were impressed. The staff was extremely friendly and considerate. We liked the Gunther so much, we stayed a second night and had family stay in other rooms. The only recommendation for improvement I have is the continental breakfast in the club lounge could have been better.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tinkerbell1 Absolutely gorgeous and history rich!
While the room was nice and very spacious, the bathroom needed some attention....upgrades or possibly tub replacement. The carpet needed to be stretched as there were wrinkles in it that we're worn.
Other than that, I absolutely loved the property, the staff and looking forward to returning very soon.

Rated 2 out of 5 by dreeda Old hotel old ideas
The Barrons Restaurant was excellent. The hotel lacks cleanliness in the rooms...we found unvacummed human hair balls in the bathroom and the facilities were atrocious.
The biggest surprise was the $ 28.00 night on site parking fee in addition to the overpriced room. Not a great experience overall.

I just love this hotel, it is so beautiful and near the riverwalk. I hope that Sheraton keeps it up and preserves the history of this wonderful hotel. "C" was a great person to talk to and very helpful.
This time the 5p.m. happy hour wasn't as great as the last time but all the same a great feature.

Rated 3 out of 5 by George77 This hotel is well-located
The location was outstanding and the staff was excellent-from housekeeping to front desk to concierge. The common areas of the hotel were good, but the room was old and needed attention. Carpet stains, aging bathroom, and overall diminished appearance of the room didnt fit the rest of the hotel.

Lovely hotel and staff but I wanted to watch TV in the morning and at bed time. The TV in our room never worked. The manager said they were switching over to HD and thus far nothing has worked for few days now. I was there the weekend of the Open Championship. All I wanted to do was watch it.

First I would like to say this is a great location for the downtown area. Now the bad news(sorry). Very old hotel. Moldy smell in the hallways and I had mold in my room along with dirty carpet. No free WiFi in rooms.Parking $28.00 per day? The next time I visit this hotel wont be on my list.

Rated 2 out of 5 by MD33 UNSATISFACTORY
When I arrived to my room, I noticed the desk chair had a large tear in it. Upon further inspection of my room, I saw that the duster on both beds had shoe marks on it and the comforter had a stain on it and the carpet was badly soiled (red spots leading from the bathroom and a large spot in the center of the room). I went back to the front desk and asked if I could be moved and told the greeter my concerns. She said that she could move me but all the rooms were basically in the same state. She assured me that she would have housekeeping clean the beds and she would get another desk chair for me. When returning from my walk these problems were fixed (aside from the carpet). Also the Barron restaurant was understaffed each night for dinner. The carpet and tile in the restaurant were horrible. Twice I sat for dinner and listened to the phone ring at least 20 times before the caller decided to hang up. Annoying. The bar in the hotel had a musty smell. Overall I was highly disappointed with my stay/

Great Location, Helpful Staff, Good Value. We booked through a "mystery" website so weren't able to select our bed(s)/room size and there was a faint smell which suggested a pet had once stayed in the room. Otherwise, everything was perfect. And, I'd stay book again if the need arose!

I would not stay here again. The bathrooms need to be updated and the overall cleanliness of the hallways, rooms, furniture and carpets is horrible. My kids reminded me that I said the same thing the last time I stayed here, but thought they had gone through a renovation- but hadn't.

Nice historic hotel, conveniently located near Riverwalk, short walk to Alamo. COLD AC was pleasant surprise for an old hotel. Beautiful lobby. Have stayed twice and pleased both times. Super friendly and helpful staff. Parking is expensive at $28 per night. Bathrooms are small.

Rated 2 out of 5 by 1traveler864 Great Staff - Rooms need to be updated
The staff of the Gunter were all very pleasant, courteous and accomodating. I have to say that the carpet in my room looked to be at least ten years old and had every stain you could care to imagine. The shower and toilet were also speckled with mold. Not whatI expected to see.

Rated 4 out of 5 by JLow Great staff and customer service!
We went to San Antonio for a weekend getaway and are so glad we picked the Gunter. I'd been to several weddings here before but had never stayed in one of the rooms. They were by no means large rooms, but they did the job and we were always greeted with happy and helpful faces.

Rated 3 out of 5 by htraveller small and dirty bath room
I stayed at this hotel before, very happy with it previously. The recent stay in jul 2012 is a disappointment. The bathroom is so small, one has to turn sideway to close the door. It really shows the age, seems like it's have not been updated over 20 years, and not very clean.

Rated 4 out of 5 by LT52 gunter review
I have stayed at the Gunter many times over the past 20 years so they must do something right. we always have enjoyed the proximity to the river walk, without being on the walk. I will say the front desk staff on this trip was not as caring and accommodating as in the past. To the point at check in I almost turned around and walked out. 4 hours later, after leaving and calling back to confirm the room, "Amy" whom answered was very pleasant and made things right. My first encounter with Elizabeth was terrible. I also noticed that food trays from room service stayed in the hallways as long as 24 hours, not a good example of cleanliness. Over all the bell staff, and valet did an amazing job as usual, and the Café was amazing. We did get shorted towels, however we called and they made things work. We realize it was a busy weekend due to weddings etc, however our opinion is that we had just moved over from the Mokara, on the river walk due to a meeting I had, and they went out of their way to give you that "WOW" felling. I got that in the Café only with the Gunter on this trip

Thought I had told the person who took my reservation that I was a AAA and AARP member. The on line notes says I need to let the Check in desk know to get free parking and Breakfast. I got no Breakfast and paid $9.00 for the parking. Enjoy your stay at this Hotel. It is nice.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Alan1 Hotel was very good except:
It was very noisey on the of the hotel were our room was.
The Bar was very poorly managed, Bartenders would leave the bar area unmanaged for up to 10 + minutes. We were there for at least 5 min before we were even acknowleged.
Club room was handled very well, good personel.

Rated 3 out of 5 by OnBusiness Room for improvement but still recommend.
A little disappointed on room cleanliness (i.e. carpet, bath tub, tiles) and furniture a little run down. The bed and pillows are my favorite of all hotels. Reason why I stay at the Sheraton Gunter!! Excellent distance to riverwalk and walking distance to all the fun spots.

Rated 3 out of 5 by PlatTraveler Hard To Believe!
Have stayed at the Gunter in the past and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It was a breath of fresh air from the typical "cookie cutter" hotels. The old property was beautifully restored with natural wood throughout, high ceilings and magnificent chandeliers in the lobby. Well trained, friendly staff and fabulous location.
The rooms were certainly not uniform, but were very comfortable.
My recent stay was a HUGE disappointment. Walking into the lobby, I was confronted with the natural wood having been painted a glaring white, the natural wood columns were covered by sheer white drapes and the classic chandeliers had shades covering them. The beautiful look of the Gunter had been destroyed by a "mad" decorator. Hard to believe that someone thought this look would be appealing.
My synopsis states that I would not recommend this hotel. I still feel that aside from the bizarre renovation, the Gunter is a fine property with great staff and location, but the cannot recommend it based on the "destruction" of the classic feel that existed.

There's a deal on for this game and it's only 200 microsoft points. Since it is a multiplayer only game was wondering if anyone knows if people are still playing this game? If not then it is obviously a waste of points.
Anyone play this?
I am not sure on the 360 but I got it free with my 7970 and it was empty only a few days after launch, which was about a month behind the 360 version.
I just bought it for 200 points and had no trouble finding matches. I really hope that this game builds a community because I think it's a ton of fun.
Get it. Avoid the pc version, as it's sped up by 15% and way more hectic...in a bad way. Also the pc version has maybe five people on at any one time and all of them are pros now. I was with nexuiz since the beta and even I have to admit that it's a bust on pc. 360 version is fine, though. It's haloish.

Call me a kid (which i am) but i love the percy jackson series.
Almost done with Catching Fire and must say it isn't THAT bad. The concept is decent and I'm hearing that there is a cliffhanger.I think the 1st book was way too obvious and the movie did it no justice. I knew from a mile away that something like that was going to happen. Hopefully the second book ends with a bang. Once this book is done I might start reading Crimw and Punishment along with my Ascent of money book.

From reading the threads, I see that it needs to handle about 370-375 VAC (525-530 VDC), and be about 90 to 300 uF. Are most people are using motor-run caps? Would a 100 uF 500 VDC electrolytic work? Specifically, any part numbers from the major suppliers would be real helpful! Thanks! |

I used a 80uF motor RUN cap from ebay. I believe it is the low ESR of the cap that is important.ebay 80uF cap
There was a thread about this just recently. I used the cap above in several projects. From what I gather though, shipping is expensive for one unit and there may be better deals around. (I had a flat rate box full of them shipped, saving cost). |

The voltage rating should be above what you maximum voltage level is. So higher than 530VDC or you will have problems.

Motor Run are often listed with an AC voltage rating, so you want better than about 370VAC (x 1.414=523VDC)...

As chirish said, the main purpose of the aux cap is the low ESR. This improves the responsiveness of the power supply for HF and other transients. Adding more overall capacitance is not the goal, though it doesn't hurt (some will argue that point that some sag sounds better, but I don't buy into that personally). So if you add another electrolytic, you are adding to the capacity of the supply. However since it will also have relatively high ESR, it still won't improve the supply's response to those transients.
So that's the reason why the size of the cap (60-300uF) is not as important as the type of cap. You want some kind of film/foil cap here. This is another topic that Morgan Jones covers nicely in his book. |

Any idea what the thread subject was? I did some searching, and found a few tidbits of information embedded in other threads, but nothing else jumped out at me. |

I use Obbligato Film Oil cap rated at 70uf and am very happy with the results, the leadouts make it easy to connect to the pcb as well

The Eyuda International 80uF chrish links to on th' bay is the exact one that I use. I've had it for more than a year with no problems. I bypassed that with an even smaller 0.1uF orange drop, just 'cause I had one.

Vancouver Actor Returns to the Dark Side
Wesley MacInnes guest stars on ShowCase's Continuum
Vancouver actor Wesley MacInnes steps back into the world of sci-fi and villains in the hit new Showcase series Continuum. No stranger to the genre having played the murderous supervillain Icicle on Smallville, MacInnes welcomed the chance to be the bad guy once again.
Continuum is a one-hour sci-fi/police drama series following a cop, Kiera Cameron (Rachel Nichols – Star Trek, GI Joe: Rise of Cobra) from the year 2077. Amidst the attempted execution of eight anti-corporate terrorists there is an explosion that sends them, along with Kiera, back to 2012. A stranger in a strange land, she must find a way to track them all down before they can destroy the future she left behind.
As the first season comes to its climax, Wesley MacInnes guest stars as Hoyt Gerber - a quick tempered young man who has some rather radical views on bringing down the world's growing corporate entities. He is also a friend of series regular Julian Randol (Richard Harmon – The Killing); step-brother to series lead Alec Saddler (Erik Knudsen - Scott Pilgrim vs The World). In episode nine Kiera and her cop partner from 2012, Carlos Fonnegra (Victor Webster – Surrogates), arrive to investigate some bizarre activities at the Sadler residence only to walk in on a lot more than they bargained for.
"This was a very intense episode to shoot with a lot of action and tempers running high. I think fans will be truly shocked to see how it all shakes down," says MacInnes on the second to last episode of the first season. Wesley's episode airs on ShowCase on July 29th at 9pm ET/PT.
Prior to working on Continuum, MacInnes has played lead roles on Smallville, Magic Beyond Words: The JK Rowling Story, A Dog Named Christmas, The Vampire Diaries and CBC's Heartland; where he portrayed up and coming country musician Austin Mars throughout the show's fifth season.
MacInnes is also a country musician off-screen, performing under the name Wes Mack & The Wildflowers. His songs have been used on CBC's Heartland, as well as an upcoming CBC movie set to air this fall. The first single, Waiting on Maria, from his debut album is available internationally on iTunes.
MacInnes currently resides in Vancouver, BC where he is filming, writing and recording for new projects set to air in 2013.

In spite of the cute cover, this is not a book for the faint-of-heart. It opens on Taylor acting as a witness to her sister's autopsy after her sister dies in a horrible domestic abuse accident. Since Taylor and her nephew had been living with her sister, they must now move to their grandmother's house and attempt to move on with their lives. Taylor leaves behind an abusive boyfriend and finds that life is actually bearable when she doesn't have to fear the safety of her nephew or herself. She meets Lily, another "girl with Baggage". Lily lives with her mother, who was brain-damaged in an accident years ago. It's left Lily's mother jobless and largely dependent on Lily for the day-to-day running of the house. The first time Taylor invites Lily over to her grandparent's house for dinner, her abusive boyfriend Devon turns up and demands that Taylor come with him. Lily, recognizing that something is off, hops into the car with them. Devon has brought a driver, a guy named Conor, who clearly owes Devon a favor. The foursome drive off to a cabin deep in the woods, far out of cellphone range and even farther from civilization. Things go from bad to worse as the girls wait to see if they'll survive this unexpected trip.
Domestic abuse is not exactly uncommon in YA lit, but rarely is it presented in such a frank way. It's clear that Taylor has been around abuse her entire life and sees submission as a survival mechanism. She rarely, if ever, thinks about herself. She has devoted her life to others, whether they treat her well or not. She also sees in herself the potential for the same type of anger and violence, which disturbs her. Lily is less prone to letting a guy call the shots for her; she's been witness to her mother's failed relationships and recognizes the signs of a person about to become violent. She still has trouble speaking up for herself, however.
This is a heart-breaking little book. It took me days to read it simply because it was hard to face the circumstances of the young women in the book. Still, Lily and Taylor are women of potential. The reader can sense that there's more to them than the abuse and neglect they've endured. The reader will cheer these girls on as much as they'll want to shake them for not fighting back. There are no easy answers in situations like these and this book does not pretend to have answers. Strings are left untied at the end, but there's a note of hope that this fragile friendship may bloom into salvation for both young women.

The Oregon Ballot Measure 36 was on the November 2, 2004 ballot in Oregon as an initiated constitutional amendment, where it was approved. The measure banned same-sex marriages. Almost ten years later, the measure was overturned on May 19, 2014.[1]
Four gay and lesbian couples took the measure to court, and argued the state's marriage laws unconstitutionally discriminated against them and excluded them from a fundamental right to marriage. On May 19, 2014, Judge Michael McShane of the United States District Court for the District of Oregon overturned the marriage ban, making Oregon the seventh state to have such measures overturned by judges. Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum (D) had refused to defend it in court. Roseblum said that there were no legal arguments that could support it in light of the 2013 decisions regarding same-sex marriage by the U.S. Supreme Court. In the week prior to his decision, Judge McShane denied a request by the National Organization for Marriage to defend the law on behalf of its Oregon members. The National Organization for Marriage filed an emergency appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit asking for a stay of a ruling that prohibited it from defending the state's ban. The appeal was quickly denied. Gay rights groups claimed to have enough signatures to force a statewide vote on gay marriage in November 2014, but also said that they would discard the signatures and drop the campaign if the court ruled in their favor by May 23.[1][2][3][4]

Ballot title
The official ballot title for Measure 36 was:
" |
Amends Constitution: Only Marriage Between One Man and One Woman Is Valid or Legally Recognized as Marriage[5] RESULT OF "YES" VOTE: "Yes" vote adds to Oregon constitution declaration of policy that only marriage between one man and one woman is valid or legally recognized as marriage. RESULT OF "NO" VOTE: "No" vote retains existing constitution without a provision declaring that only marriage between one man and one woman is valid or legally recognized as marriage.[5][6] |
" |
The official ballot summary for Measure 36 was:
" |
Amends constitution. Oregon statutes currently provide that marriage is a civil contract entered into in person between individuals of the opposite sex, that is, between males and females at least 17 years of age who solemnize the marriage by declaring "they take each other to be husband and wife." The existing Oregon Constitution contains no provision governing marriage. Currently, the State of Oregon recognizes out-of-state marriages that are valid in the state where performed, unless the marriage violates a strong public policy of Oregon. Measure adds to Oregon Constitution a declaration that the policy of the State of Oregon and its political subdivisions is that "only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or legally recognized as a marriage."[5][6] |
" |
Full text
The full text of the constitutional changes enacted by Measure 36 was:
" |
The Constitution of the State of Oregon is amended as follows: It is the policy of Oregon, and its political subdivisions, that only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or legally recognized as a marriage.[5][6] |
" |
Supporters of the measure argued that traditional family values would be under attack as long as same-sex marriage was permitted. Some argued that children raised without a mother and a father would not be emotionally or physically "healthy," and that foster children would be more likely to be placed in same-sex households if homosexual marriage was "normalized."[7]
While certain supporters pointed out that Measure 36 was not about "hate," but about promoting a common good for Oregon, others such as the Traditional Prejudices Coalition took a stronger stance, calling homosexuals a "perverted" part of society and stating that those who do not follow the Bible will "burn in hell."
Some of the other supporters included:
- State Representative Susan Morgan
- Stronger Families for Oregon
- Restore America
- Representative Wayne Krieger
- Parents Education Association
- Senator Roger Beyer
- Clark Brody Retired Superintendent, Oregon Department of Education
- Gary George, State Senator
- Defense of Marriage Coalition
- Family Research Council
- City Bible Church
- New Hope Community Church
- Cedar Mill Bible Church
This measure was opposed by many people and organizations, including a number of churches and religious groups, who argued that Measure 36 wrongly allowed discrimination to be a part of the Oregon Constitution. Many pointed out that "love" should be the only deciding factor in whether a marriage is considered valid.[8]
Some of those who opposed the measure include:
- American Friends Service Committee
- Community of Welcoming Congregations
- Planned Parenthood of the Columbia Willamette
- Central Pacific Conference of the United Church of Christ
- Religious Response Network
- The National Organization for Women, Corvallis Chapter
- National Association of Social Workers, Oregon Chapter
- Administrative Council of the University Park United Methodist Church
- Outright Libertarians
- State Rep. Kelley Wirth
- State Senator Vicki L. Walker
- The Session of Southminster Presbyterian Church
Campaign finance
$2,455,816 was spent by the "yes" campaign and $2,967,012 was spent by the "no" campaign.[9]

- Christian Copyright Licensing, Inc., $410,000.

There are rumors that current Node.js (or, more exactly V8 GC) performs badly when there are lots of JS objects and memory used.
Can You please explain what exatly is the problem - lots of objects or lots of properties on one object (or array)?
Maybe there are some benchmarks, would be interesting to see actual code and numbers.
As far as I know the main problem - lots of properties on one object, not lots of objects itself (although I'm not sure). If so - would be the in-memory graph database (about couple of hundreds of properties on each node at max) a good case?
Also I heard that latest versions of V8 has improved GC and that it solved some parts of this problems - is this true, and when it will be available in Node.js?

CLARION — If one was to see Josh Neal during the fall and winter months the past two years, chances are he would be walking with a limp in his right leg.
The junior, who suffered a knee injury before the 2009 football season and foot injury prior to the 2010 football season, overcame the leg problems to accomplish something great Saturday at Clarion University: A berth in the regional wrestling tournament.
(The Spirit is pleased to share with our readers vignettes of life in the 19th century as originally reported in past issues of the newspapers. These reproduced stories include their original headlines and spelling.)
Local Intelligence (February 5, 1896)
Death of Little Clara Wells
The papers last week told the sad fact but our hearts crave a few words of fond remembrance.Â

He was a 1998 graduate of Karns City High School. Mr. Kelsey attended the Chicora Christian and Missionary Alliance Church. He loved the Lord and he would witness to those he talked to online.Â

Through the Pennsylvania Humanities Council (PHC), Michelle Covert and Theo Turner, both IUP-Punxsutawney administrators, were able to partner with Watson, who was accompanied by dancers and musicians. Watson, a choreographer, storyteller and former Fulbright Scholar, taught the audience about African-American history through lecture, video and demonstration.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Junior Carl Langley is the top seed at 160 pounds and is one of Punxsy's four heavier weights in position to advance past today's District IX Class AAA Individual Wrestling Championships in Clarion.
Langley is joined by teammates Josh Neal (171 pounds), Tige Woodson (189) and Tyler Titus (215) as the Chucks' upper weights to compete today. All three are top-three seeds, and the top-three place-winners advance to regionals next weekend in Altoona.
Punxsy will not have a heavyweight at districts.

JERUSALEM, an anarchic comic play set in rural England on St George's day, can be seen at Leamington's Loft Theatre.
Jez Butterworth' splay, which is already hailed as a modern classic, tells the story of Johnny "Rooster" Byron, dealer in drugs, booze and wild stories, who lives in a caravan on the edge of a forest in Wiltshire. He is about to be evicted by the local council to make way for a new estate.
But Johnny's mates, a motley crew of young party animals and a retired academic, gather round to help him defend his fiefdom. A local publican warns him of the consequences, his separated wife want him to fulfill a promise, and a terrorizing father wants to know the whereabouts of his young step-daughter.
David Pinner takes on the role of 'Rooster' Byron, leading a cast of both Loft stalwarts and some new faces.
Director Gordon Vallins said: "Jerusalem is charged with energy and brimming with vivid characters. It is a lively and alarming snapshot of living in the countryside of early 21st century England with a touch of disturbing magic."
Harbury Folk Club members have recorded the Padstow May Day Song for inclusion in the show. The group will also be singing live on stage 20 minutes before curtain up at performances on the opening and closing nights.
The play, which runs from February 29 to March 10, contains strong language.
For tickets and further details visit www.loft-theatre.co.uk or call 0844 493 4938 between 9am and 5pm Monday to Friday.

I worked at American Association of Critical Care Nurses
ProsServe the critical care nurses (the members) and become a part of the honorable work of improving patient care in critical care units across the nation. All of society benefits from the service and education of this constituency. The critical care nurses are really the unsung heroes of today's health care system and are individuals with great integrity and high ideals who function in organizations/hospitals who may not adhere to the same level of ethical standards.
ConsThe dissonance between the espoused values and norms of the organization and practice resides at the nexus of Earth and Pluto. They tend to reorganize departmental functions and tasks frequently, basing their decisions upon favored individual manager's preferences for certain responsibilities. The outcomes of these reorganizations which occur two to three times a year, disassemble effective flow processes lowering staff productivity, performance and results. The compensation is much lower than other organizations of parity.
Advice to ManagementAdvicePlease listen to the staff who are the implementors of programs on a day to day basis. Do not entertain negative or give weight to comments about staff from other staff without a full assessment of all the facts, and underlying motivations. Consider that you are in a cycle of collectively reinforcing your own hubris(unintentional though it maybe). Ask yourselves why such a high percentage of your staff go to the EAP therapists to try and restore their dignity and cope.
