Combating Terrorism:
Evaluation of Selected Characteristics in National Strategies Related to Terrorism

Following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the Bush administration developed and published seven national strategies that relate, in part or in whole, to combating terrorism and homeland security. These were National Security Strategy of the United States of America; National Strategy for Homeland Security; National Strategy for Combating Terrorism; National Strategy to Combat Weapons of Mass Destruction; National Strategy for the Physical Protection of Critical Infrastructure and Key Assets; National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace; and the 2002 National Money Laundering Strategy. In view of heightened concerns about terrorism and homeland security, GAO was asked to identify and define the desirable characteristics of an effective national strategy and to evaluate whether the national strategies related to terrorism address those characteristics. The purpose of this testimony is to report on GAO's findings on this matter.
National strategies are not required by either executive or legislative mandate to address a single, consistent set of characteristics. However, based on a review of numerous sources, GAO identified a set of desirable characteristics to aid responsible parties in further developing and implementing the strategies--and to enhance their usefulness in resource and policy decisions and to better assure accountability. The characteristics GAO identified are: (1) purpose, scope, and methodology; (2) problem definition and risk assessment; (3) goals, subordinate objectives, activities, and performance measures; (4) resources, investments, and risk management; (5) organizational roles, responsibilities, and coordination; and (6) integration and implementation. GAO found considerable variation in the extent to which the seven strategies related to combating terrorism and homeland security address the desirable characteristics. A majority of the strategies at least partially address the six characteristics. However, none of the strategies addresses all of the elements of resources, investments, and risk management; or integration and implementation. Even where the characteristics are addressed, improvements could be made. For example, while the strategies identify goals, subordinate objectives, and specific activities, they generally do not discuss or identify priorities, milestones, or performance measures-- elements that are desirable for evaluating progress and ensuring effective oversight. On the whole, the National Strategy for Homeland Security and the National Strategy for the Physical Protection of Critical Infrastructure and Key Assets address the greatest number of desirable characteristics, while the National Security Strategy and the National Strategy to Combat Weapons of Mass Destruction address the fewest.

Marquis and Object Matrix Announce Technology Partnership
2010-06-30 14:34:15
Parking and MatrixStore Provide New Cost-Effective Edit Sequence Archive and Restore Solution
Basingstoke and Caerphilly, UK, 30 June 2010: Marquis Broadcast, specialist in content workflows and media integration software, and Object Matrix, a leading developer of media archive systems, have announced a joint technology partnership. The two companies are providing a new cost-effective solution for broadcast and post-production workflows, using Marquis' Parking archive and retrieval software and Object Matrix' MatrixStore near-line archive system. Powered by Marquis Broadcast's Media Highway Technology, the new development takes advantage of Parking's easy to use edit sequence archive and restore functionality and MatrixStore's secure, cost efficient near-line storage.
Users are able to move entire sequences, including edit decisions, subclips and metadata, from dedicated Avid or Final Cut Pro storage to the MatrixStore environment in a simple one-click process. No specialist knowledge of storage or archive management systems is required. At any time in the future, sequences, together with all metadata including essence and edit decisions, can be retrieved and dropped directly into the editing system.
The joint development offers a number of significant benefits to broadcasters and post-production companies, for example, workflow efficiency and resource management are improved as valuable online edit storage is freed up. The process of archiving is fast and easy as Parking wraps the sequence elements and metadata into a standard TAR file as they are transferred to MatrixStore. Similarly, the process of file restore is also fast and efficient as Parking eliminates the need to re-ingest and conform media before editing can begin. Furthermore, by providing easy access to media, the Parking/MatrixStore system provides customers with a very productive and flexible working environment. This means that more time is made available for the creative processes and therefore the final product is often of a higher quality.
"We are delighted to be working with Object Matrix,� said Granby Patrick, Technology Director, Marquis Broadcast. "Customers are always looking for ways to improve the cost efficiency of their broadcast and creative workflows while maintaining a flexible approach to resource management. We believe that the Parking/MatrixStore solution will improve workflow efficiency by simplifying the storage and retrieval of content, giving users the ability to respond to their customers' requirement quickly and easily.�
"Post Production companies, broadcasters and content creators recognise the storage and asset management challenges that exist when working with tapeless content. Online storage infrastructures are put under huge strain, frequently suffering from unacceptable drops in performance or at worst, complete failure,� said Nicholas Pearce-Tomenius, co-founder, Object Matrix. "The integration between Marquis' Parking system and MatrixStore is a much needed development that enables content to be moved with minimum effort. We are very excited to be working with the Marquis team who, like Object Matrix, are focused on creating solutions that solve real problems faced by customers."
Pricing and Availability
The integrated Parking/MatrixStore solution is available now from Marquis Broadcast and Object Matrix's network of reseller partners. Contact Object Matrix for pricing.

Hoya spurs falling off.. and fertilizing?
So I've had this hoya for about a year or two, and it's always blooming. Recently, some of the spurs have been turning yellow and falling off!! I'm so very sad. I recently moved the plant from my parent's house to my apartment, so maybe it's adjusting to the the humidity/temperature change? My parent's house is always very hot, but my apartments always kept around 68-72. Or perhaps it's nutrient deficient?
Maybe not enough light? In that case, could someone recommend me a plant lamp? I don't know where or what to even look for.
Some of the leaves are turning yellowish and a couple look burnt looking, but not from too much sun. I think it might be nutrient deficient because I've never fertilized it- which brings me to my next question..
How do you fertilize your plant? I bought Dyna-pro foliage pro, and I read the instructions but I'm confused- so you dissolve the amount on the bottle into a gallon of water, but do you soak the plant with the whole gallon of water?? Or do you just water it with the fertilizer until it's soaked through?
Thank you!! Help me make my beloved hoya happy again!
Edit: I think the "spurs" i'm talking about are actually/also called peduncles, where the flowers come out.
This post was edited by plumerias on Mon, Apr 21, 14 at 0:44
Post a picture or a few of how the plant, leaves, the peduncle and the soil all look - this will make it easier to diagnose.
Dropping a peduncle and a few leaves alone is not necessarily a reason for concern. Old leaves yellow and die when they are not needed by the plant anymore and as they are replaced by new ones.
Only healthy plants should be fertilized (so, again, post the pics to determine the health), as fertilizer may make it worse if there is a problem, say, with roots. I also use Foliage-Pro to fertilize all my plants. The directions they give are for the water you water with, not to soak the plant with. There are foliar spray formulas out there, but Foliage-Pro is not one of them. They give two dosages: the maintenance and the production dose. Start with the maintenance, although if the plant is growing very actively, the stronger production dose can be used. It's best to fertilize often but with relatively weak doses (weakly weekly, as it's aptly called). This whole past fall and winter I fertilized at maintenance doses almost at every watering, which is roughly every 4 days for me. This spring, as plants started growing more, I increased the dose to half-way between the maintenance and the production dose.
Thanks for your reply! I will post a picture when I get a chance. I think overall the plant is healthy, you're right- they're just old and the plant is growing.
I'm still a little unclear about one thing- so I dissolve the maintenance amount in the gallon of water, but do I water the soil with the whole gallon of water? Sorry if the question seems silly!
> do I water the soil with the whole gallon of water?
No. They just mention doses per gallon because a gallon is how we measure liquid volumes They have no idea how much water YOU need to water, of course.
So, if you have only a few plants, you need to reduce the "gallon" and reduce the fertilizer dose proportionately, or increase it proportionately if you have many plants and need more than a gallon. Do the math, then ask somebody else to do the math and compare. People have burned the hell out of their plants' roots because they got the dosage wrong. For small quantities of water, you may need to convert teaspoons or tablespoons into drops.
Then once you made the fertilizer solution, just water normally, which means thoroughly, till water flows out the drainage. If you use a relatively strong fertilizer solution, and the soil is very dry, people suggest watering with plain water first, then fertilizing, in order to avoid root burn. I do not follow that personally because I do not use strong solutions and more importantly because my soil drains very fast.
It could certainly be a change in environment, but GT is right about older leaves sometimes being ready to shed. If newer leaves are turning yellow, that's something to be concerned about. As for the peduncles, I'm assuming you are saying some of the old peduncles are dropping, not that they start to bud up and then abort the buds before they get very far. Peduncles will bloom over and over, but eventually, they're done and they'll drop. How many times varies from species to species. But I'm never surprised when a plant shows some signs of stress when it goes from one environment to another.
As for lighting, where is your Hoya sitting in relation to a window? How close? What exposure? Is it unobstructed or are there sheers, shades or curtains? And how does that differ from the kind of exposure it had at your parent's house?
I keep about a dozen 1/2 gallon milk jugs filled with water to water as I need. When I fill them, I put my fertilizer in - about March through September, I used bloom booster at 1/2 strength, and I also spray the leaves with Eleanor's VF-11 when I water. The rest of the year, I used VF-11 in my water jugs, or if I'm low on that, I use SuperThrive. To make sure I have the proportions right, I simply always use the same size jug and leave a measuring spoon in my fertilizer tub. It would be good to get into the habit of feeding your plant - you won't be sorry!

68-72 degrees is fine for any Hoya. I keep my place at the same temperature and they're all fine. There are Hoyas that like to be kept above 70 degrees, but I have many of them in my collection and they are fine at these temperatures because the indoor environment is so stable and protected.
Dyna-Gro Foliage Pro is a great choice and it's my primary fertilizer, too.
I've had my plants drop peduncles and leaves just from being moved from one room to another, and I often receive cuttings with peduncles that later drop them, deciding it's not a priority to maintain them in their current state. It is just the process of acclimation - the plant changes its game plan when you change the playing field. Our pets also act a bit off when we move, plants are just more disconcerting because plant behavior can be harder to read. But a few dropped leaves and yellowing, when you have a ready explanation like this, is nothing to worry about. Just keep an eye on it until you know it's not on a downhill slide. It should stabilize quickly.
I would be interested to see what you mean about burnt leaves (but not from sun). I can't really think of what would cause this. Certainly not lack of fertilizer.
Where do you have your plant now? Does your apartment not have any good windows? I know this can be an issue if there are buildings or trees nearby, but I have Hoyas that bloom in a north window even though there is a building right next to it. Some of them don't bloom much, and others bloom constantly. So, if you can get your plant RIGHT against a window (unless it's west-facing - not all Hoyas like that), it should be alright without a plant light. If you do want advice on plant lights anyway, we can help you. But let us know a little bit more about what you'd be looking for in terms of aesthetics and coverage. Most plant lights are rod-type deals, like a fluorescent light fixture, but if you are only looking to supplement the light for a single plant, a compact fluorescent might be more practical for you.
Question for the group:
I personally mix my fertilizer into room-temperature filtered water about half an hour before I'm ready to use it, and then I use it all, because I have a lot of plants. But could you mix a gallon's worth, use half of it, and leave the rest till the next week? Or does it need to be remixed fresh. I never really thought about it before, but I know that the vitamins and electolyte solutions for chicken water have to be mixed daily and I wondered if fertilizer compounds were equally sensitive to degrading. Just to be clear, I'm only asking about the lifespan AFTER mixing with water.
I did Google around, but I had a hard time figuring out the right search terms.
I found one FAQ for an organic fertilizer (Neptune's Harvest) that said, "Our liquid fertilizers have an indefinite shelf-life, until water is added." And some forum posts from growers saying that they had issues with organic fertilizers which they'd pre-mixed and then let sit for a while. They reported that it changed color and expelled gasses. And that it depended on how sterile the vessel and water were. They reported no problems like that with pre-mixing chemical fertilizer, although several people claimed it was stronger the fresher it was.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone knew the actual science behind it, beyond personal observations.

> I personally mix my fertilizer into room-temperature filtered water about half an hour before I'm ready to use it
Why not right before you use it? I am curious.
> could you mix a gallon's worth, use half of it, and leave the rest till the next week?
When I bought my first fertilizer bottle and started fertilizing , I left the unused fertilizer solution on the counter till the next watering. Then a few days later I noticed there were fuzzy balls of... something floating in that bottle - looked like white/grey little perfectly spherical clouds. There is life in our tap water, and when you fertilize life and otherwise give it good conditions, it'll grow. I went "duh" and never did it again.
If a little fertilizer solution is left, I just water some more, perhaps after an hour or so when some plants soaked back the drained solution a bit and can have another little sip. If there is too much solution left, I've left it in the fridge for 4 days till next watering. No visible growth in the bottle that way, but I am also very curious to know if that degrades the solution in any way. Do not water with cold water - I dunk the bottle into a bowl of hot water till the solution is room temperature before using.
I mix all of my fertilizer a week or two in advance of when I need to use it. I use a lot of water so I like to have at least 15 gallons of water premixed. I use almost 98% chemical fertilizer. I find that when I need to water, it is just easier to have the stuff already mixed up. In addition my water is chlorinated so having it mixed up ahead of time allows plenty of time for the chlorine to dissipate.
I've never had any problem with my water getting yucky and I've let it sit for up to a couple weeks. I do use R.O. water, which is one of the reasons I fill my bottles ahead - I can only get about 2-1/2 gallons of water at a time out of my machine then it needs to recoup. Sometimes, I need a lot more than that to get everything watered. I like to keep a bottle of water within reach around my plants because I might just walk by and give the soil a quick feel. If it's dry, grab the bottle and water. I try to keep things simple! You have to when you have several hundred plants waiting for you to water them!

Will be playing my first match of the 2013 Spring Season at 9:30 this morning (rescheduled from 4:30 pm due to cancellation by a different opponent -- which is one reason why I really like the flex league format).
Yeah, I know it's late, but I had a really long nap earlier and can't sleep now.
I'll only need a couple hours more sleep for this, as I'm very excited about this, being my first match of the season and all.
Will try to have some video snippets of the match play posted here by late afternoon, early evening.
I'm playing a guy who's a middling 3.5 who beat me 10-3 in a pro set in our only previous encounter (in the playoffs of the 2012 Fall Season -- he went on to win the 3.0 - 3.5 championship for that season). He's a big guy with nice stroke technique (but doesn't hit anything particularly hard) and great stamina (oh yeah, and he's about 35 years younger than me), but I think if I'm smart about it I might be able to do at least a little better than last time by exploiting what I see as certain movement/mobility deficiencies (which strategy is, I think, perhaps ironically, a significant part of why/how he beat me in our first match).
I hope it's at least somewhat interesting and fairly close and that I don't just sort of fold up the tent mentally because of my current sub par physical condition. However, again perhaps somewhat ironically, I draw inspiriation (rather than embarrassment) from the fact that he beat me 10-3 while he was limping the entire match on an obviously injured ankle. Ya gotta love that competitive spirit, although I must say that it worried me that maybe he shouldn't have been playing on that ankle. But he won, and went on to win the trophy for that season, and he's playing now apparently fully healed and healthy.
Bottom line, I think, is that he's really just basically a better, more solid player than I am. So, wish me luck, 'cause I'm gonna need it.
I'm just gonna think positive, relax, keep a clear and calm mind, play fairly and have fun. But I really do want to win.
66 yrs, NTRP-based, 3.0 in Tennis League Network (tennisftlauderdale.com) Play mostly at Hardy Park near downtown Fort Lauderdale.

The Role of MicroRNAs in Breast Cancer Migration, Invasion and Metastasis
Received: 27 August 2012 / Revised: 19 September 2012 / Accepted: 9 October 2012 / Published: 18 October 2012
(This article belongs to the Special Issue Advances in Molecular Oncology (special issue))
Abstract: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a major class of small, noncoding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression by targeting mRNAs to trigger either translational repression or mRNA degradation. They have recently been more widely investigated due to their potential role as targets for cancer therapy. Many miRNAs have been implicated in several human cancers, including breast cancer. miRNAs are known to regulate cell cycle and development, and thus may serve as useful targets for exploration in anticancer therapeutics. The link between altered miRNA signatures and breast cancer development and metastasis can be observed either through the loss of tumor suppressor miRNAs, such as let-7s, miR-30a/31/34a/125s/200s/203/205/206/342 or the overexpression of oncogenic miRNAs, such as miR-10b/21/135a/155/221/222/224/373/520c in breast cancer cells. Some of these miRNAs have also been validated in tumor specimens of breast cancer patients, underscoring their potential roles in diagnostics, as well as targets for novel therapeutics for breast cancer. In this review article, we will provide an overview and update of our current understanding of the mode of action of several of these well characterized miRNAs in breast cancer models. Therefore, better understanding of the gene networks orchestrated by these miRNAs may help exploit the full potential of miRNAs in regards to cancer diagnosis, treatment, and therapeutics.

Wrightsville Beach -- Large beach crowds kept ocean rescue teams busy Sunday. Wrightsville Beach Fire Chief Frank Smith said there were at least 15 water rescues throughout the day, but none of them were serious. Considering the large crowds, Smith said that number is relatively low. There were at least five incidents of lost children, all of whom were eventually found.
Visitors and locals alike enjoyed the sunshine. Stacia Bradley of High Point visited Wrightsville Beach for the first time. "It's beautiful today. It was a little of an overcast yesterday, today's a little bit warmer, very sunny, and you see there are a lot of people out here on the beach, so very nice," she said.
All the people on the beach needed a place to park, which turned out to be quite an issue for parking officials. People parked along the road, on construction sites, and anywhere else they could find an open spot.
One ticket-writer said he wrote about 20 tickets on Saturday and more than 80 on Sunday. He also said some people told him they would accept a $30 ticket in order to have a close parking spot.

Xero on Rails
I'm one of the developers working in the engine room at Xero. Recently, I've been doing some work on the Xero Network, which is our API (Application Programming Interface) that lets different software solutions exchange data with Xero. For instance, a project management system can exchange data with your Xero account so your contacts are all in sync, your account codes come across and the invoices you create will automatically appear in Xero.
These software connections help make your life easier, it automatically keeps your accounts up-to-date, and it eliminates data-entry errors.
For software developers, we currently publish information on how to use the API with Microsoft's .Net programming language. However, I wanted to build something in Ruby, another popular programming language. So I spent a day coming up with a few examples of using Ruby to connect with Xero.
I've posted my Ruby examples over on my personal blog. Have a play with it and please let us know how you'd like to use the API. We're always looking for useful ways to connect Xero with other software.

90 total players (number takes into account Claridge and Drame release) -1 unsigned rookie (Maroney) =89 -8 NFLE Exemptions (Mortensen, Charles, Steitz, Z. Smith, Henry, Musinski, Ventrone, Spann) =81 -1 NFLE Bonus Exemption (Chad Jackson) =80 Active/Preseason PUP players still count against the limit. There are 10 of them as we know: http://www.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/reiss_pieces/ There are also 4 players on the NFL Europe/Exempt Injury list, but we may or may not see them on the field tomorrow: http://www.boston.com/sports/football/patriots/reiss_pieces/2006/06/index.html Musinski returned to minicamp practice the next day. Since they have NFLE exemptions anyway, it really doesn't matter if they're on the NFLE injured list or not. Cedric James spent upwards of two years on the list with the Patriots before he was cut in March. The Patriots don't have any players on the Injured Reserve or Non-Football Injury list yet. They also don't have any players on the regular season/inactive PUP, as it wouldn't make sense at this point.
Why the bonus exemption???? Right on the money with that one....but why the extra??? I know you mentioned Ourlads..but many may NOT have access to that...
From Miguel's site: Ourlads.com, a scouting agency with sources within the league, lists Chad Jackson as having one of those "bonus" exemptions: http://www.ourlads.com/secure/depthchart.cfm?index1=ne I'll have to check on which Patriot NFLE allocation met the ambiguous criteria. There's really nothing on the internet available on it, though.
Re: Why the bonus exemption???? Their site is completely free (including the daily-updated depth charts). They do sell some draft guides, though.
Re: Why the bonus exemption???? OK....I didn't realize that..good!!! Still don't understand why THIS exemption...Bonus..I remember last year it was an added one for performance..of an NFLE player..still odd.

Argentina's Camilo Echevarría will make is WTCC debut this weekend at Termas de Río Hondo.
The 23-year old from Neuquén will replace Pasquale Di Sabatino at the wheel of a BMW 320 TC run by the Liqui Moly Team Engstler in the TC2T class.
Following a successful career in karting and a couple of promising seasons in single-seater series, Echevarría switched to Touring Cars and soon emerged as one of the top drivers in the Argentine Turismo Carretera.
Having won last Sunday's race at Alta Gracia, he is currently second in the Turismo Carretera Pista.
"I am very happy for the opportunity to join the WTCC races in my home country. I am extremely motivated after Sunday's victory and I wish to pass the WTCC examen well, without making mistakes. It will take me some time to get used to the car, but it will help that the BMW is a rear-wheel driven car, as I have more experience with this kind of traction. I'm very much looking forward to meet the team and start practising," the young Argentine said.

Head of Paris's famed Moulin Rouge cabaret dies at 83
Published on Jan 15, 2013 6:09 AM
PARIS (AFP) - Jacki Clerico, who headed the Paris cabaret Moulin Rouge for 50 years and revived its famed revues featuring plumed can-can dancers, has died at 83, the establishment said on Monday.
The Moulin Rouge in Paris's vibrant Pigalle district has become synonymous with the can-can and was immortalised in the Oscar-nominated 2001 film of the same name.
Founded in 1889, the establishment became a place where the working classes rubbed shoulders with the aristocracy and is now one of the city's major tourist attractions.
Mr Clerico, who was suffering from cancer, died on Sunday in the American Hospital in the posh Paris suburb of Neuilly.

I made these for my NewYears party but since Water Chestnuts were out of season, I did some research and all the research said that jicama is a very good substitute for water chestnuts...so I used jicama. These were a big hit and very tasty

Curling Hair With This Flat IronI was amazed when I heard I could curl my hair with a flat iron but it turns out better than with any curling iron. To get an awesome curl with this product take a small piece of hair, close the iron on it near the scalp, turn the iron a quarter turn in any direction and then slide the iron in the opposite direction (i.e. if you turn the iron a quarter turn to the left, slide the iron out to the right) using your free hand to guide the hair. if you want a tighter curl, turn the iron more than a quarter turn. hope this helps!Reply to this postJan 11, 2010Link to this post

Jim Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Clear the Slate for Earnings Season
Search Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" trading recommendations using our exclusive "Mad Money" Stock Screener.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- It's time to wipe the slate clean, earnings season is upon us, Jim Cramer told his Mad Money TV show viewers Friday, as he laid out his game plan for next week's trading. Cramer said starting next week, stocks will only move higher if companies can beat on the top and bottom lines and raise guidance for the rest of the year.
On Monday, Cramer said he'll be watching for news from the Farnborough Airshow, one of the few times a year when Boeing (BA) and Airbus give investors an update on their order book. Expect to hear good things from Boeing.
Tuesday, it's earnings from JPMorgan Chase (JPM), a stock which Cramer owns for his charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS, along with Intel (INTC) and Yahoo! (YHOO). Cramer said JPMorgan will likely have good things to say, as he expects from Intel. As for Yahoo!, investors will be looking to hear updates on the upcoming Alibaba IPO.
Wednesday brings earnings from Bank of America (BAC), another Action Alerts PLUS name, and Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (KMP). Cramer said he wants Bank of America to just deliver a good, clean quarter with no mistakes, no restatements and no new lawsuits. If they can do that, this stock will have a chance to head higher. As for Kinder, Cramer said he wants to hear if oil is headed below $100 a barrel. If so, that's good news for the transports and retail. For Thursday, it's Snap-on Tools (SNA) and PPG (PPG) reporting, two stocks Cramer said are buys, along with Google (GOOGL), an Action Alerts PLUS holding that Cramer likes for the long haul, and IBM (IBM), a stock Cramer said could go either way. Finally, on Friday, it's General Electric (GE), yet another Action Alerts PLUS position, and Honeywell (HON) in the spotlight. Cramer said he's hoping both these companies offer plans to reignite growth and boost dividends to spur their stocks.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Pakistan's Earthquake Was So Powerful It Created a New Island - Connor Simpson - The Atlantic WireThe U.S. Geological Survey said the quake that hit Pakistan's Baluchistan province early Tuesday morning was a 7.8 magnitude. Officials recently said that at least 150 people died during the quake, with that number expected to rise as the Pakistani military continues the clean up. Many one-level houses in the impoverished area where the quake hit collapsed on the people inside.
In addition to the physical damage, the power and force of the quake was underscored by the small, visible island that rose off the coast of Gwadar in the Arabian Sea. Reuters reports "a crowd of bewildered people [gathered] on the shore to witness the rare phenomenon." Pakistan's Geo News reports "the island's altitude is 20 to 40 feet and width around 100 feet," and that the island is roughly 350 feet off shore, citing deputy inspector general Moazzam Jah. Arif Mahmood, the head of Pakistan's meteorological department, says they're planning to investigate further.
Pretty interesting. That sure would be an amazing sight to see. If this one sticks around, is anybody able to claim it?

Very good
The location was perfect for our plans having planned a sunday brunch around the down town JC area
I was a bit displeased that the hotel didnt offer free wifi
The staffs are kind, location is OK, 5-10 mins walking distance to the trim. Room is big. They provided the welcome cookie...interesting.
The facility is so so, the air condition is noisy... The hotel is kind of old...the Westin hotel looks better than this one and even a little cheaper than this hotel...
Staff was very helpful and accommodating to our needs. Very pleasant.
The bed is too soft for me; I prefer a firmer mattress.
we rented a suite it was nice to have the bedroom witha sitting room separate
Second time stay at doubletree in Jersey city. Easy and quick access into New York City from the tube only across the road. Amazing skyline view from our suite and once again very helpful, friendly and warming staff. Saved a lot of money staying here and was lovely and peaceful to come back to at the end of a long noisy day in New York!
The night receptionist, think her name was Edith, was fantastic. She was so helpful and friendly
Nothing to dislike about this hotel
The bed was lumpy as all get out and my wife and I had a terrible nights rest . At approximately 1:30 am someone tried to get into our room , shaking the door handle rattling the door , I'm sure it was just a guest with the wrong room number but still it was annoying . Our room was next to the elevator and we listened to that going up and down all night . When someone in another room was taking a shower the piping in our room whistled . Terrible terrible for the price .
The view from our room of New York City was awesome. It was very east to commute between Jersey City and New York City.
The net and parking If you pay for net and parking It will be beter to find hotel in manhaten
Clean room
AC didn't work at all, didn't feel like changing rooms when we got back so we dealt with it.
Away from the big city. Good ferry to Manhattan and access to shopping and restaurant and the warm chocates cookies on arrival
No free wifi
The room was spacious. The staff was courteous.
The bed was too small for me and my wife. I think it was a standard double. It should be a queen or king. The heating/cooling was impossible to regulate. The price was exorbitant and they wanted to charge for WIFI. A rip off.
I liked how clean the place was and the comfort of the room. I found the staff helpful and knowledgeable. The food was good. I would recommend to my friends.
As a senior citizen, it would be very helpful if the shuttle service ran from Newark to the hotel.
Comfortable beds, spacious room and quiet. Also easy to get to Manhattan.
No WiFi in room. These days, one needs WiFi.
the staff was very accommodating my husband drinks tea so the staff provided filters for him to make his tea.
absolutely nothing...everything was great
Most of the things are good
The room don't include breakfast. And when they say parking it is not free as i have seen it before in other hotels they will charge you a lot of money which i thought it's not fair.
I liked the spacious rooms Good breakfast with enough choices Helpful employees Internet room very convenient
Internet service very slow and should be available in all rooms without extra charge ....... If we r 4 in a room it means you need a double room rate for internet .... All people now need to be connected all time ! For work and even socializing
Near the PATH makes for easy access to NY city
Had a problem with getting a copy of receipt for room. Since I reserved through Booking.com the lady at the counter told me she could not issue copy of the invoice for the room as I would be billed by Booking. It then took me a good part of a day (at least half a dozen phone call) to get someone to send me the copy. Premises generally clean except minor thing such as a room service cabaret which was sitting by the elevator door when we arrived at 16:00 on Monday and was still there when we left at 06:00 on Thursday.
This was a great hotel. Very spacious and clean. The location is beautiful! If you're going to NYC and want a hotel bigger than a box, this is a good one. You can get to NYC via the nearby subway in 15 minutes. I will stay here again without hesitation. GREAT staff!!!

Anybody else remember KCAL kids?
It was on when I was little, so early 90s? The format was these 3 teens that would go around Disneyland goofing around do different stuff, then they'd show classic Disney cartoons. I'd love to find old episodes!
Anybody else remember KCAL kids?
It was on when I was little, so early 90s? The format was these 3 teens that would go around Disneyland goofing around do different stuff, then they'd show classic Disney cartoons. I'd love to find old episodes!
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
I remember that show, I always watched to see if they would go on rides. I watched it everyday before school.
-JackDoc Brown had 2 Deloreans!
I sure do. That was when they had the Disney Afternoon as well. I used to watch KCAL before and after school.
"I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. "Groucho Marx
I remember too. I loved that show!
I don't know about KCAL kids. I remember Toontown and I think it was called "MouseTunes" with this guy going around Disneyland. I'm attempting to put a couple "MouseToons" clips up when I have time. I think I only have Frontierland and Tomorrowland segments. I remember having a KCAL kids card though.

i totally remember it! I hated those kids! they got to be at the park (seemingly) everyday, and my family had to save all year for one trip to Disneyland, and we never even went every year!
California 9 was great. I loved the station's on-air look and sound. And, I do remember the "KCAL Kids". It was nice being able to see old Disney cartoons getting ready for school on weekday mornings. The show was packaged as the "Dis Kids" for The Disney Channel, I think. So you might want to search for that term, too.
I think you're thinking of the predecessor show, which was "K-MOUSE" with "Morty McToon" as host. (I have no idea how I remember all these things.) That cartoon series was produced by KHJ-TV, Channel 9 in Los Angeles, after Disney acquired the station but before the call letters were changed to KCAL-TV.
The only Disney park show I remember was Disney Inside Out, I loved that show I wish it still aired

i remember a similar TV show that aired on the disney channel (i think?) in the early 90s called "toontown" it was around the time when toontown first opened and they had these two kids, an asian girl and a white guy, running around toontown and it sporadically showed some old disney cartoons. the theme song for the show is the same song that they use for Toontown Morning Madness....
i miss old disney cartoons especially the goofy "how to" series of cartoons.
I'd get up every morning to watch the KCAL Kids before I got ready for school. Then I'd come home in time to watch the Disney Afternoon. I also watched the other morning shows that were filmed in Disneyland. And when all of that stopped, I switched to watching the old Disney cartoons on the Disney Channel as well as Vault Disney. Those were the days.
Now all of those shows are gone, and you can't find a decent Disney program. Bring back the classic cartoons and Vault Disney!!!

I'd only get up in time to see the end credits (which was them riding Big Thunder Mountain if I'm thinking of the right show)

You set the bar I could not live up to
Tonight the light is breaking through
So thank you very little and send me postcards from hell"
While on the subject of early 90's TV, does anyone remember a show called Wake Rattle and Roll they had on the Disney Channel? All I remember is that it had a kid, a robot, and cartoons. It might have been on KCAL, but I'm pretty sure it was from the Disney Channel.
I don't think I was allowed to watch tv in the morning back then, but I did want to join the KCAL Kids Club. I remember they ran adverts to join the KCAL Kids Club during the Disney Afternoon.
