4. I wish I knew what experiences other people have had
You have to put your self in the shoes of a business that is in business to turn a profit of some sort. All businesses have different overhead which in turn decides what their bottom line would be on their services. I personally would not go with an unlicensed professional for this type of install. You are messing with gas, venting issues, electrical wiring{electric water heater} and updated code issues such as a drain pan and tempature and relief drain lines for heaters that currently do not have them. I do agree that there are some companies that are way out of line for their installs but most of these companies are the really big companies that have very high overheads I would assume. Tank type water heaters have changed over the last several years and with these safety changes come bigger prices. The price of steel thanks to China is skyrocketing and tank type water heaters are made of steel. Most wholesale plumbing supply companies cannot match what the big box stores are selling at retail to consumers. I happen to think from research that heaters such as Rheem, Bradford White and AOSmith who have been in business forever make a better product than what you can buy in the big box outlets. You also have to take in consideration the location of the water heater that is being replaced. Is it in the house, basement, garage or attic. Most 40 and 50 gallon water heaters that are purchased in a plumbing wholesale store in Texas cost between 300-340 for a 6 year warranty heater with 6 year on parts and tank. Speaking of warranty. Most big box companies will take a least 24 hours to a week to get your warranty problem taken care of. Most reputable plumbing companies will give same day service if they installed the heater.
So lets break down a typical install at cost to a licensed plumber in Texas
Heater: $315, water shut off $6.50, water flex lines or unions to code $20, gas flex line and cut off to code $12, misc fittings $15, Total $368.50 Lets add a 35% profit which is some what low for a business $129, Total 497.50
This doesnt include permits, pan and drain or any venting issues. The vent must go from the heater to the outside of roof using double wall vent.
Cost of permit on average $60
Most plumbing companies allow for 3 hours of time for a water heater. This includes picking the new one up. Delivering out to house. Draining and removing old water heater. Hauling off old heater. Installing new heater up to code. Going down to city and pulling permit.
Average Labor charges for heater installs $400
That would make this install run without extras on any code issues $957.50
I just had a 50 gallon gas water heater installed in my house for $1200 but I needed a pan installed. I used a licensed plumber.
That's very difficult to answer without seeing the house. As one poster said, the prep is the most important part. On newer homes that don't have a lot of peeling paint, the prep can be very minimal even as low as a couple or a few hundred dollars for the prep labor.
On a 100 year old home with 12 coats of peeling paint on it, then the prep costs can be very high and can easily exceed 50% of the job's labor cost.
A 2100 sq ft two story home could easily cost $1000 just for the labor to prep for the paint job. That number could climb too. Throw in lots of caullking or window glazing, and you could be talking a couple or a few hundred dollars more for labor.
Painting that home with one coat of paint and a different color on the trim could run roughly $1000 or more just for labor. Add a second coat and that could cost close to another $1000 for labor.
For paint, you may need 20 gallons of paint. You can pay from $30-$70 for a gallon of good quality exterior paint. The manufacturer of the paint should be specified in any painting contract. Otherwise, the contractor could bid at a Sherwin-Williams $60 per gallon paint and then paint the house with $35 Valspar and pocket the difference. $25 dollars per gallon times 20 gallons? That's a pretty penny too.
That was the long answer to your question. The short answer is $2000 to $4000 and up, depending upon the amount of prep, the number of coats, the amount of trim, and the paint used.
An itemized list / cost breakdown, more often than not is used against the contractor when it is shared with other builders who will then beat it.
Good contractors use good people, and good people cost more. Just the cost of having the appropriate insurance / bond can be the difference between winning a job or losing it ot a 'lower bid'.
It is the rule of three; there is Good, Cheap and Fast. You can have any two: Good and Cheap, won't be Fast; Good and Fast, won't be Cheap; Cheap and Fast, won't be Good!
When comparing bids, it isn't the cheapest or the 'nicest' person you should select. You should understand why there is a large price difference (it shows there are gaps in your design program or what you have asked for specifically, which means there may be arguments later). If most of the bids are in line, and one is way high or way low, you want to know why before dismissing or selecting them.
A price-only decision almost always costs more in the long run.
Good luck!
Hospital Care reviews in Exton
It's been excellent. I've had two hips replaced and one knee and one ankle fusion and all those orthopedic situations, but they are very good with orthopedics. It's a pleasant experience. It's clean and lots and lots of volunteers to help with essential things and it's a pretty good situation.
When my mother, as I said she has Alzheimer's, and she fell and was taken. The ambulance came and took her to the ER and she spent a night in the ER and then she was put in a department that they call Emergency Room Observation. The quality of care that she got in the Emergency Room Observation department was unbelievable. There was a young registered nurse named who was above and beyond and if you can give a compliment to 's supervisor, that would be great. has an assistant whose name is is forever imprinted on my brain, she was just the best."
Her nurse told me she did not feel comfortable medicating my confused mother; yet she kept tip toeing in to wake her and ask her if she was having pain. Mom has been medicated for several years with a mild pain med which keeps her from screaming with pain after several hours if she does not receive.
What a nightmare knowing my mother would be screaming with pain around 3-4 am and I could not stay. I knew her pattern and what to expect, but the nurse preferred to take control and totally ignore my pleas."
Attentive nurses
The food was good, once I could eat something!
They gave me some physical therapy and instructions before I went home after two days
They had a pre surgery class that was informative.
Very good nurses
Efficient staff
Nice room

Quality cabin crew – made on the Sunshine Coast!
The Sunshine Coast is poised to become only the second region in
the nation to host a company training airline cabin crew.
The Queensland Institute of Aviation Engineering (QIAE), which
started up in 2000 at Caloundra Aerodrome, is now aiming for
expansion and higher goals.
"We can start to train international students as cabin crew with
this move," QIAE director Tank Macpherson said.
"We will have a purpose-built building to expand into this
"There is only one other business training cabin crew in
Australia – it's in Brisbane – so this is a first for the
Sunshine Coast."
Mr Macpherson said QIAE had recently hired six new staff and
would hire more "once we have settled into the new premises at
Sunshine Coast Airport".
Mayor Mark Jamieson congratulated the company on its move.
"We are working hard to build a sustainable economy here on the
Coast, and the aviation sector is one of our key growth sectors,"
he said.
"A growing, successful organisation with vision and ambition such
as QIAE is just the kind of partner we want here and I am pleased
to see Tank and his team take this major step.
"I can assure him that council will be supportive of QIAE every
step of the way."
Airport General Manager Peter Pallot said QIAE and the airport
had been working on the development for some time "to enable the
business to fulfil its international marketing potential and
attract students from around the world".
"Students will be exposed to a wide variety of machines from
small general aviation aircraft to the modern passenger jets that
operate at the airport," he said.
"The new development will also, for the first time, also allow
the business to diversify into jet aircraft maintenance."

China Liansu Group Holdings, one of the largest manufacturers of plastic pipes and fittings on the mainland, announced a slight increase in its financials for the first six months of the year.
Monday, 27 August, 2012, 7:31amShanghai property agent Fang Bei used to earn tens of thousands of yuan a month from commissions she was paid for selling luxury homes to wealthy businessmen.
The money kept rolling in - until the central government introduced a series of policy measures aimed at curbing demand and price growth in the mainland's overheated property market.
22 Aug 2012 - 9:38amThe London Olympics have just ended and the memory of Chinese athletes giving their all to win honours is still fresh in our minds. Who can forget Liu Xiang's heart-wrenching fall in the hurdles event?
16 Aug 2012 - 2:46amJapan's economy expanded just 0.3 per cent in April-June, half the pace expected, fuelling concerns growth will continue to flag as a rebound in consumer spending starts to lose momentum and Europe's debt crisis weighs on global demand.
14 Aug 2012 - 10:12amMainland-listed companies are reporting lacklustre earnings for the first half of this year, a development likely to further depress a confidence-stricken domestic stock market.
14 Aug 2012 - 11:44amGosh, everyone's gone gloomy all of a sudden. On Friday the Hong Kong government announced that the city's economic output fell by 0.1 per cent in the second quarter of the year, compared with the first three months (see the first chart).
13 Aug 2012 - 2:11pmCooling economic activity has heightened expectations of more aggressive policy actions from Beijing to counter a worse-than-expected slowdown. Industrial output growth slowed the most in three years in July and new export orders fell, both reflecting the debt crisis in Europe and a sluggish recovery in the United States.
15 Aug 2012 - 11:30pmThe mainland's securities regulator is encouraging listed companies to buy back and cancel some of their shares, the latest effort to boost stock prices and bolster investor confidence.
15 Aug 2012 - 10:51pmHunan provincial capital Changsha has unveiled an 829.2 billion yuan (HK$1.02 trillion) stimulus package, prompting speculation it could be a model for other local governments to counter the economic slowdown.
27 Jul 2012 - 12:00amMainland investors rejected a pep talk last week from the chief securities regulator, sending the benchmark to a three-year low yesterday as concerns about the country's economy mounted.
24 Jul 2012 - 12:00amThe impact of falling oil prices reaches many firms. Investors might wonder which listed firms might be profiting most. The following are the sectors and the firms to watch:
23 Jul 2012 - 12:00amChina deserves congratulations: such a sprawling complicated country managed to publish its growth numbers for the second quarter on Friday, a mere 13 days after the end of the quarter. It's a performance on par with tiny sophisticated Singapore and far ahead of the pack of older, richer countries - such as the US, Japan or Germany - which have yet to reveal their economic performances.
18 Jul 2012 - 12:00amAnalysts at Standard Chartered Bank expect China's economy to pick up in the second half of the year on the back of lower interest rates and increased spending on infrastructure.
'The economy will not come roaring back, but it will at the very least stabilise and should regain a little bit of momentum,' the bank says.
17 Jul 2012 - 12:00amJust a few months ago, financial markets fell after Beijing cut the economy's growth target for this year to an eight-year low of 7.5 per cent. On Friday second-quarter growth came in at 7.6 per cent, a shade lower than expected, and markets rose. That says something about how much major Western economies now look to China to sustain global growth.
15 Jul 2012 - 12:00amA warning from Guangdong, the mainland's export powerhouse, of a deepening economic downturn in the second half of this year signals broader concern for the nation's economic health.

This classic Louisiana dish is a lot like Spanish paella. Some think that its name comes from the Spanish word jamon (ham), because the recipe often includes ham. Others think it came from the Creole words jhamba (gift) and laya (rice).
Makes 6 Servings
- Knife
- Cutting board
- Large skillet with a lid
- Tongs
- Plate
- Wooden spoon
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about ½ pound/225 g), cut in half to make 4 pieces
- 2 links (½ pound/225 g) andouille sausage, cut into ½-inch (1.25-cm) coins
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, thinly sliced
- 1 cup long grain white rice
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- Salt and pepper
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 (14½-ounce) can diced tomatoes (NOT drained)
- 1 cup frozen sliced okra
- 6 ounces (170 g) raw jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
- Heat the oil in the large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Using the tongs, turn the chicken and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Move the chicken to a plate and set aside.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Add the sausage, onion, pepper, and celery. Cook, stirring frequently, until just tender, about 4 minutes.
- Add the rice, garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and thyme to the skillet. Season with pepper. Stir until blended.
- Add the tomatoes and their juice and 1 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil. Stir frequently, scraping up any brown bits from the skillet.
- Add the chicken and reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer until the rice is barely tender, about 15 minutes.Carefully remove the lid. Scatter the okra and the shrimp over the top. Put the lid back on.
- Simmer until the rice is tender and the shrimp is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and carefully remove the lid. Gently toss the mixture to combine. Serve hot.
Creole vs. Cajun?
Louisiana is known for two distinct cultures: Cajun and Creole. Cajun comes from the word Acadian, which refers to the French Canadians who fled Canada when the British and French went to war. Many Cajuns ended up in rural Louisiana, and Cajun cooking is "country" food: hearty one-pot meals made from local ingredients. It's often mixed with rice to feed more people. Creoles are descended from French and Spanish settlers who moved to New Orleans. Creole food combines local ingredients with classic French cooking styles. Both Cajun and Creole cooking use the "holy trinity" of bell pepper, onion, and celery.
Croque Monsieur
A classic French Croque Monsieur (or "Mister Crunch") is a grilled ham and cheese sandwich topped with a French cream sauce called béchamel. You can also add sliced tomatoes or use other types of cheese like blue cheese, Brie, or cheddar.

Pinellas unemployment continues to fall
Consumer confidence on the rise
By SUZETTE PORTER
Article published on
Monday, Nov. 19, 2012
Pinellas County residents have something more to be thankful for this holiday season as unemployment continues its downward swing.
State officials reported Nov. 16 that October had the lowest unemployment rate since December 2008. Floridas not seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for the month was 8.2 percent, compared to 8.6 percent in September and 10.2 percent in October 2011.
The U.S. not seasonally adjusted unemployment rate was 7.5 percent in October, 7.6 percent in September and 8.5 percent in October 2011.
Pinellas Countys unemployment rate continues to decline, dropping to 7.9 percent in October, compared to 8.4 percent in last month and 10.2 percent in October 2011. Octobers labor force of 452,393 was similar to the previous month of 452,280 and slightly above October 2011 at 445,598.
The most telling difference is the number of unemployed: 35,840 in October 2012 compared to 45,252 in 2011, and 38,076 in September 2012. Statewide in October of this year, 768,000 people were unemployed and 12,258,000 in the United States.
Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater Metro Statistical Area continues to hold the No. 2 spot, behind Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford, for most over-the-year job growth of the 23 metro areas. The local MSA was one of 22 in the state with job gains this year. The state reports that October was the 27th consecutive month that number of jobs in Florida has increased.
The industry reporting the most job gains is professional and business services, followed by trade, transportation and utilities; private education and health services; leisure and hospitality; and financial activities.
Total government accounted for the most job losses, followed by construction, other services, information and manufacturing.
Pinellas County was 39th on the list of 67 counties ranked by percent of unemployment. Hendry County ranked No. 1 with an unemployment rate of 12.6 percent and Monroe ranked last with 4.7 percent.
The local MSA at 8.2 percent unemployment tied with Miami-Ft. Lauderdale-Pompano Beach MSA for the No. 14 rank. Last month Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater reported an 8.8 percent unemployment rate. Unemployment in October 2011 was 10.5 percent.
For statistical purposes, Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater MSA includes Hernando, Hillsborough, Pasco and Pinellas counties.
Pinellas County had the lowest unemployment of the four counties. Hernando County was in a tie with Okeechobee County for the No. 7 rank with an unemployment rate of 9.8 percent. Pasco County with 9.1 percent unemployment tied with Taylor and Marion County for the No. 14 rank. Hillsborough ranks at No. 38 with unemployment at 8 percent.
Economic growth on the rise
Floridians are looking for positively toward the future, according to Octobers University of Floridas Consumer Confidence Index report. More people are moving to Florida rather than moving away.
Median house prices up 7.4 percent over the year, and the backlog of existing homes on the market was down by 40 percent from September 2011.
The state is exporting more than it imports, resulting in a trade surplus of more than $24 billion.
The economy is clearly in recovery, said Chris McCarty, director of the Consumer Confidence Index survey.
McCarty tempers the optimism by saying continued recovery depends on what happens in Congress and how it deals with the impending fiscal cliff and extensions of federal tax cuts currently in place.
If Congress and the White House cannot agree on a solution, the full impact of the fiscal cliff will almost certainly result in a recession at a time when the country and Florida, are recovering from the biggest recession in history, McCarty said.

iOS 7 beats up on Android, Windows Phone in user experience comparison
A new report by technology consultants Pfeiffer Consulting has found that iOS significantly outranks Android, Windows Phone and BlackBerry phones in user experience satisfaction. Pfeiffer didn't want user "fan" bias entering into the equation, so the company only looked at "aspects that have a direct impact on the day-to-day user experience of an average, non-technical user."
The results show that Apple's iOS 6 and iOS 7 best the other operating systems in all four main categories: cognitive load, efficiency, customization and user experience friction. The results, according to Pfeiffer:
The combined results of the four different benchmarks and evaluations give iOS 7 a clear advantage in terms of overall user experience, taking into account the context defined for these benchmarks: day-to-day user experience of an average, non-technical user.
If you're interested in studies such as this, the entire report is worth a read. It also demonstrates more good news for Apple and its newest iOS version.

We like the breakfast in the hotel the next morning.
The keys didn't work very well on the elevators so I would ride up and down multiple times before I could get my key to work. There was no coffe or tea in the room.
I like the location the most. The bar and the staff helping out in the lobby is the best.
Reception staff need be more attentive. The cleaners on the floor make so much noise in the morning at the weekend that it is impossible to rest. There is no decent coffee served in the hotel nor decent healthy breakfast.
The Roof Top Club was terrific! The Staff was friendly. The location was excellent.
Staff by far was highlight. Love that they remembered us and offered to help at every opportunity.
Frig was not friendly to store items as it is touch sensitive so we used the frig and were charged for item we did not use.
Friendliness and helpfulness of staff. Fun decor, comfy bed Location close to Chelsea Market Close to subway
Had a room on the third floor. Could hear the band from downstairs until very late although the room had a noise machnem
The location, the style of the hotel, friendly staff.
No coffee makers in rooms (room service was $20 for a pot), small rooms, no room in bathroom to put stuff.
Location to chelsea market. Clean...
wifi was spotty or not at all. Was told I could have upgraded but seems like wifi should be there if it's advertised as being there.
classy hotel and PHD is an outrageous nightclub
Love the consistency of the service; the occasional room upgrades; the food; and the staff, in general.
Needs to have a frequent guest loyalty program.
Very nice hotel in a great location just opposite chelsea market. Great mexican restaurant in the house.
Ridicoulosly slow free wifi. Noisy nightclubs.
Great room, great design, great location. Very good soundproofing from the street noise.
However, some sound from the nightclub makes its way to the rooms. Could not prevent me from sleeping though, and is much more easy to deal with than any street noise that you usually here in NY hotels.
Electronic sensors on all bottle service but I picked up bottle it automatically charges you. Even though I did not open it it is not right
I liked how friendly the staffs were. They were very accommodating especially when I got charged $300 worth of snacks that I supposedly ate at the mini bar in our room. Beware of the mini bar. If you move an item for more than 10 seconds, a sensor will go off and charge you even though you put it back in its place unless you call the front desk immediately to notify them.
It was to pricey. The walls were vey thin and you can hear everything. It feels like your sleeping at a club.
The Hotel is located within a short walking distace from Chelsea Market and well located in the Chelsea area. I have enjoyed the Bodega Negra Lounge and staff. The room order steak was devine.
The free WiFi connection was very slow. Breakfast at the Hotel was very unhealthy and disappointing.
Internet connection was very slow. Rooms are very small.
Location is top - right opposite Chelsea Market Welcoming staff
could hear the music from the bar at night in the room
Service was fantastic, clean really cool hotel!
WIFI was really slow! The price you pay for the hotel should include free high speed internet.
Staff was amazing. I've stayed at other trendy hotels in Meatpacking and the staff couldn't of been more rude. Dream's staff was professional, nice and went out of their way to help the guests. I will defn. return.
excellent location, great staff, surrounded by great restaurants, clubs and a very short walk to the ACE
Try to get a room 7th floor level so you do not hear the club but that will not remove the risk that groups of late night partiers might be coming in and out of their rooms as they go back and forth to the roof top club.
Everyone was nice beautiful place the location is fantastic.
Nothing wrong
There was not one aspect I that could have been better. Will be staying there again, and again, and again!
The people that work there made my vacation great
The burger from room service
Nice deco, good duvet, on weekend nights expect party atmosphere in the lobby
Walls are quite thin so expect to hear your neighbour
Difficult to find fault really, staff and facilities were fantastic. Great location in Chelsea / Meatpacking district.
Perhaps the wifi was a little bit slow and inconsistent, but that's trying to find fault. Would also note that while the location was brilliant for us, you need to be willing to undertake a decent walk / take the subway to midtown and uptown attractions otherwise you could find yourself in a lot of taxis.

I am doing the 2 diagrams for a hotel booking service question. I did look up google and almost all diagram examples seem to have nicely linked up the actors but I just don't seem to be able to do so in my case. Also for the activiy diagram, I feel it fits best only for part of the question and not everything.
I would appreciate any feedback on my work if it is correct/ at least on the correct path and where it need working or its totally off.. Tnks for help.
A new hotel requires a website to allow potential guests to make a room reservation by specifying the type of room e.g. single, double, and the dates of booking. The hotel has many room types available, each with a room-type name, number of guests and additional facility information. Each room in the hotel has a unique room number and is of one specific type.
If the potential guest has registered with the website, in the past, their previously stored details e.g. contact number, credit car details, can be retrieved to speed up the booking process. If the potential guest has not previously registered they must create an account as a new customer before making a booking.
Each reservation at the hotel is allocated a unique reservation code. Prior to the date of the booking(s), the customer can use the web site to edit or cancel the reservation. Amendments to the booking(s) can include changing the dates of the booking, the number of guests in each room etc. During the booking process the customer can printout their reservation.
When the guest(s) arrive at the hotel the reservation number is used by the receptionist to find the reservation to check them in. At the end of their stay at the hotel, the receptionist checks the guests out. It is during this stage that the hotel system takes their payment through the credit card payment system and an invoice may be requested by the guest.
Monthly reports are prepared by the system which may be viewed on request by the Hotel Manager.

My Band made the evening as wnderful as it was. They are for sure the best Latin Band in Houston. Thank you Walter for helping make my day so wonderful and special.
Wedding: 4/23/2011
If you want a band that will get everybody off their chair then I would get Mango Punch!!
The whole band will have you dancing the night away.
Wedding: 7/8/2006
Mango Punch is #1 in creating a fun, party atmosphere. For the third year in a row Mango Punch! has won the Houston Press Music Award for Best Salsa/Latin Pop band in Houston. The lead singer Walter Suhr is very good at reading the crowd to know what to play next and they played a perfect balance of a variety of genres of music. He even had us over to his house in order to discuss what kind of music we wanted before our wedding! Susana Trimmer, the manager, was very easy to work with to book and work with the band.

Netflix Should Raise Prices Again
I know the notion of a considerable price hike sounds insane, but the Netflix of late 2012 is many times better than it was in summer 2011. Better content. Elevated user experience. And mobile is that much more relevant.
I think Mitt Romney is an awful human being for saying what he said about the "47%." Forget that he got it all wrong, what he said and the fact that he would even say it -- it's just plain sad.
That said, you're not entitled to $7.99 a month Netflix. When you stop and think about it, it's really pretty absurd that you can pay so little for so much. I am a light user of the service and it paid for itself in a few hours over the course of a few nights.
Again, positioned properly, Reed Hastings can get this message across and come out better off for it. He might want to remove himself from the situation and let somebody else call the shots and face the public on this one. Hire a celebrity that everybody loves as spokesperson.
However it goes down, mark it down, Netflix will sell DVD and, though I am not quite as confident about it, I sniff a price increase coming as well. With these two moves, Netflix has more than a fighting chance at survival. Without them, or something like them, I'm afraid I might have to switch last year's bear case back on.

Video: Law & Order: SVU Special Interview - ICE-T!
Law & Order: SVU returns to NBC on Wednesday, September 26, 2012 with a special 2 hour season premiere. To welcome the show back, we're excited to present a new interview with ICE-T.
Created by Emmy Award-winning producer Dick Wolf, "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" is now in its fourteenth season. The program has received numerous accolades from community-based organizations for the social issues it tackles, and cast members are frequently recognized for the work they do off-screen to promote personal health and safety and other volunteer efforts and initiatives.
This hard-hitting and emotional series from NBC's "Law & Order" brand chronicles the life and crimes of the Special Victims Unit of the New York City Police Department, an elite squad of detectives who investigate sexually based crimes. Dedicated Detective Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay), a seasoned veteran of the unit who has seen it all, heads up the department with empathy and professionalism, all the while dealing with her difficult past – as a product of rape and a witness to her mother's grief, she can personally relate to each victim she tries to help.
In 2011, Hargitay (Detective Benson) garnered her eighth Emmy nomination for Lead Actress in a Drama Series, and won the 2006 Emmy for that category. Also in 2011, she received her sixth SAG nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series for her portrayal of Detective Benson. In 2009, Hargitay earned her second Golden Globe nomination for Lead Actress in a Drama Series for the role, winning the award in 2005.
Captain Donald Cragen, (Dann Florek, reprising the role he played on the first three seasons of "Law & Order" 1990-1993), oversees the unit with a tough but supportive approach to the team's complex cases, guiding the squad through the challenges they face every day. Sergeant John Munch, (Richard Belzer, "Homicide: Life on the Street"), a transfer from Baltimore's homicide unit, brings his acerbic wit, conspiracy theories and street-honed investigative skills to the team. Detective Odafin "Fin" Tutuola (Ice-T) adds a unique sense of humor and undercover investigative experience, making him a formidable match for any partner.
Returning for their second year are Detectives Nick Amaro (Danny Pino) and Amanda Rollins (Kelli Giddish), who bring their own talents and style of investigation, all the while learning the ropes from senior detectives and facing head-on the emotional toll it takes to work the SVU. In 2012, Pino was nominated for the ALMA Award for Favorite TV Actor.
"SVU" has been continually acknowledged for its guest players, most recently with the legendary Ann-Margret winning an Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series in 2010. In 2009, Ellen Burstyn won the Guest Actress Emmy while fellow "SVU" guest stars Brenda Blethyn and Carol Burnett were nominated. Previous Emmy-winning guest stars include Cynthia Nixon (2008), Leslie Caron (2007) and Amanda Plummer (2005). Other Emmy-nominated "SVU" guest stars include Robin Williams, Marcia Gay Harden, Angela Lansbury, Marlee Matlin, Mare Winningham, Barbara Barrie, Martha Plimpton, Jane Alexander and Tracy Pollan.

The Khyber Pass (Persian: تنگه خیبر, Pashto: د خیبر درہ, Urdu: در خیبر) (elevation: 1,070 m or 3,510 ft) is a mountain pass connecting Afghanistan and Pakistan, and India cutting through the northeastern part of the Spin Ghar mountains. An integral part of the ancient Silk Road, it is one of the oldest known passes in the world. Throughout history it has been an important trade route between Central Asia and South Asia and a strategic military location. The summit of the pass is 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) inside Pakistan at Landi Kotal.
Well known invasions of the area have been predominantly through the Khyber Pass, such as the invasions by Darius I and Alexander the Great and also include Genghis Khan and later Mongols such as Duwa, Qutlugh Khwaja and Kebek. Among the Muslim invasions of South Asia, the famous invaders coming through the Khyber Pass are the Persian king Mahmud Ghaznavi, and the Afghan Muhammad Ghori and the Turkic-Mongols. Finally, Sikhs under Ranjit Singh captured the Khyber Pass in 1798 . Hari Singh Nalwa, who manned the Khyber Pass for years, became a household name in Afghanistan.[1][2]
To the north of the Khyber Pass lies the country of the Mullagori tribe. To the south is Afridi Tirah, while the inhabitants of villages in the Pass itself are Afridi clansmen. Throughout the centuries the Pashtun clans, particularly the Afridis and the Afghan Shinwaris, have regarded the Pass as their own preserve and have levied a toll on travellers for safe conduct. Since this has long been their main source of income, resistance to challenges to the Shinwaris' authority has often been fierce.
For strategic reasons, after the First World War the British built a heavily engineered railway through the Pass. The Khyber Pass Railway from Jamrud, near Peshawar, to the Afghan border near Landi Kotal was opened in 1925.
During World War II concrete "dragon's teeth" (tank obstacles) were erected on the valley floor due to British fears of a German tank invasion of India.[3]
The Pass became widely known to thousands of Westerners and Japanese who traveled it in the days of the Hippie trail, taking a bus or car from Kabul to the Afghan border. At the Pakistani frontier post, travelers were advised not to wander away from the road, as the location was a barely controlled Federally Administered Tribal Area. Then, after customs formalities, a quick daylight drive through the Pass was made. Monuments left by British Army units, as well as hillside forts, could be viewed from the highway.
The area of the Khyber Pass has been connected with a counterfeit arms industry, making various types of weapons known to gun collectors as Khyber Pass Copies, using local steel and blacksmiths' forges.[citation needed] .

During the current war in Afghanistan, the Khyber Pass has been a major route for resupplying military armament and food to the NATO forces in the Afghan theater of conflict since the US started the invasion of Afghanistan in 2001. Almost 80 percent of the NATO and US supplies that are brought in by road were transported through this Khyber Pass. Furthermore, it has also been used to transport civilians from the Afghan side to the Pakistani one. Until the end of 2007, this route had been relatively safe since the tribes living there (mainly Afridi, a Pashtun tribe) were paid by the Pakistani government to keep the area safe. However, since that year, the Taliban began to control the region, and so there started to exist wider tensions in their political relationship.
Since the end of 2008, supply convoys and depots in this western part increasingly came under attack by elements from or supposedly sympathetic to the Pakistani Taliban.
In January 2009, Pakistan sealed off the bridge as part of a military offensive against Taliban guerrillas. This military operation was mainly focused on Jamrud, a district on the Khyber road. The target was to "dynamite or bulldoze homes belonging to men suspected of harboring or supporting Taliban militants or carrying out other illegal activities".[4] The result meant that more than 70 people were arrested and 45 homes were destroyed. In addition, two children and one woman were killed. As a response, in early February 2009, Taliban insurgents cut off the Khyber Pass temporarily by blowing up a key bridge.
This increasingly unstable situation in northwest Pakistan, made the US and NATO broaden supply routes, through Central Asia (Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan). Even the option of supplying material through the Iranian port of Chabahar was considered.[5]
In 2010, the already complicated relationship with Pakistan (always accused by the US of hosting the Taliban in this border area without reporting it) became tougher after the NATO forces, under the pretext of mitigating the Taliban's power over this area, executed an attack with drones over the Durand line, passing the frontier of Afghanistan and killing three Pakistani soldiers. Pakistan answered by closing the pass on 30 September which caused a convoy of several NATO trucks to queue at the closed border.[6] This convoy was attacked by extremists apparently linked to Al Qaida which caused the destruction of more than 29 oil tankers and trucks and the killing of several soldiers.[7] NATO chief members had to issue a formal apology to the Pakistan government so the supply traffic at this pass could be restored.
In August 2011, the activity at the Khyber pass was again halted[8] by the Khyber Agency administration due to the more possible attacks of the insurgency over the NATO forces, which had suffered a period of big number of assaults over the trucks heading to supply the NATO and ISAF coalitions all over the frontier line. This instability made the Pakistan Oil Tanker Owners Association demand more protection from the Pakistani and US government threatening not to supply fuel for the Afghan side.
A number of locations around the world have been named after the Khyber Pass.
