»Battleship Texas
On most battlegrounds you would not find a battleship, but San Jacinto State Historical Park is a definite exception to the rule. This majestic ship is berthed on the Houston Ship Channel at the edge of the park. She is the only survivor of the World War I dreadnoughts and also served as a flagship for the World War II D-Day invasion in 1944. President Eisenhower, a native Texan, presided over the dedication ceremony when the ship was retired, and the U.S. Navy has proudly preserved and restored her in the years since. Visitors are welcome to explore most parts of the ship. Tours are available, and many areas display items and memorabilia from ship life.

San Jacinto State Historical Park is the battleground where Texas won its independence from Mexico in 1836. After the Alamo, General Santa Anna's large force chased Sam Houston's small army across Texas and was soundly defeated at this site. A limestone and concrete monument rises 570 feet above the coastal flatlands to pay tribute to the historical event. At the base of the monument you will find the Museum of Texas History, and the Battleship Texas is berthed in the ship channel at the edge of the park.

Finally, the John Jacob Observation Tower is an 82-foot tall tower providing expansive views of the lake, park and for miles and miles in every direction.
»Villa De Matel Convent
If you are looking for old Northern Italian architecture and a charmingly designed church, come visit this beautiful chapel known as Villa De Matel Convent. Built in the Lombard Romanesque style by Maurice J. Sullivan in 1928, it was the proudest of his creations. The sisters who decided to build the chapel in the 1920s asked him to create a building that would "be as good in 500 years as on the day of completion". He accomplished exactly that. Located on a sprawling 70 plus acres near South Wayside in southeast Houston, the grounds are home to the Sisters of Charity and Sisters of Incarnate Word private novitiate and mother house.

»Saint Arnold Brewing Company

Saint Arnold Brewing Company, started in 1994 by two Rice University graduates, is the city's first microbrewery and is named after this saint. No brewing additives or preservatives are used, and to keep it pure, there is no pasteurization. Examples of the company's bestsellers include Kristall Weizen, Brown and Amber Ale. The brewery is not open for general drinking, but you can take tours on Saturday from 11a to 2p with tours leaving on the hour and 3p on weekdays. A beer tasting comes with every tour and unlike Saint Arnold, you won't have to share.

It is very important for anyone with cancer to have a support system that includes having someone they can share their fears and concerns with. Locating support groups is easily done online, and you might even discover someone who your loved one can talk to face to face. This helps the cancer sufferer get more emotional outlets.
If you are assisting a member of your family who has had a cancer diagnosis and you go with them to the doctor, ask your own questions. You probably have questions, too, and the doctor can help. Always protect your skin from the damaging rays of the sun by using sunscreen or protective clothing to lessen the risk of skin cancer. The sun's UV radiation is extremely detrimental to the skin, and some types of skin cancer, such as certain melanomas, can quickly become fatal without timely treatment. Using a SPF30 sunscreen is recommended to prevent burning, and to block a majority of the harmful UV rays. If you are fair skinned, you should always wear sunscreen. Hold onto your good health habits if you've recently been diagnosed with cancer. Ideally, you should focus on eating a balanced diet, getting enough sleep and exercising regularly. By staying fit you will have more energy to fight off the cancer, and you will be able to quickly bounce back to your usual self after your course of treatment is completed.
As previously stated, knowing the effects of cancer involves being well-informed. Knowing as much as you can about cancer is what can keep you from developing it, or give you the edge in your fight against it. Use these tips to fight against cancer.
It's especially important for cancer patients to quit smoking. The sooner you quit after receiving your diagnosis, the better your chances for long-term recovery from the disease. Smokers with cancer often think that quitting is pointless since they are sick anyway. The carcinogens contained in cigarettes could decrease the chance of their body recovering from cancer. In addition to making you feel great in your daily life, maintaining a healthy weight and diet, and getting plenty of exercise, has been shown to reduce the risk of cancer. Eat lots of vegetables and fruit, drink adequate water and aim for 30 minutes of exercise a day. Not only will it improve your life, it could reduce your risk of cancer. If your cancer treatments are giving you diarrhea, try to eliminate the coffee that you may find so dear. It may help you feel a bit more awake, but it is contributing to the diarrhea that you are fighting. By avoiding caffeine altogether, you can lessen your severe symptoms.
Regular physical activity is a great way to keep control of your weight, and it is also beneficial in helping to lower your risk of cancer. Your heart rate rises during physical activities and your body starts to sweat. This cleans the toxins from within your system and out of your pores, helping to reduce your chances of developing cancer.
Defend yourself when you need to. A lot of folks hold antiquated notions regarding your cancer, and might be suspicious of your abilities to function or even be contagious. Think of the questions you may be asked and form the answers you wish to give to them. This will help those around you to be less intimidated or fearful as you battle cancer.
Ovarian cancer can be treated by chemotherapy and surgery most of the time. Surgery can mean the removal of an ovary or even a hysterectomy and the removal of lymph nodes. Chemotherapy is one treatment option, one that combines drugs and radiation to kill off cancer cells. Chemotherapy is usually performed after surgery, but sometimes it is done prior to surgery, as well.
Always wash fruits and vegetables because they may contain traces of pesticides or harmful bacteria. Most produce is regularly treated with various pesticides to protect them from pests and diseases. Wash off all of your vegetables and fruits before you eat them to get rid of any pesticides. You might also want to consider buying organic foods with little or no exposure to pesticide products.

Missoni Pre-Fall 2012
>> Six months from now when the next transitional items start rolling into stores, there'll be plenty of super-cozy looks on offer from Missoni. Cold-weather layering — in the form of oversized outerwear, body-con dresses, and belted waistlines — was the message, and it came in the form of jumbo coats, boxy fur-trimmed vests, and maxi-length jackets, with plenty of space-dyed turtlenecks and graphic-knit minidresses to wear under them.

ABINGDON, VA (Thursday, July 28, 2011) – Earlier today, Food City officials announced plans to begin purchasing their eggs locally from Abingdon based Dutt & Wagner. The joint venture will result in job creation and a $6 million boost to the local economy.
"Food City is a locally owned and operated company and we make every effort to buy locally whenever possible," said Steven C. Smith, Food City President and Chief Executive Officer. "Buying local is the logical choice. It provides our customers with the freshest possible product, while lending additional support to our local economies."
Food City and Dutt & Wagner are long-time partners, with the retailer having purchased select egg products and hens from Dutt & Wagner for a number of years. "We have always enjoyed a great working relationship with the Wagner Family, Kenny Hobbs and his folks and we're thrilled to have the opportunity to take our partnership to the next level," said Smith.
Production is scheduled to begin immediately and will include the company's three main labels, Food City, ValuTime and Full Circle, resulting in 11 available product varieties and accounting for about 90-95% of their total egg sales.
"Our local farms are known for producing some of the finest products in the country and we're excited to have the opportunity to provide Food City shoppers with a top quality product at the peak of freshness. The eggs will be packed one day and arrive at the Food City Distribution Center the following day. It just doesn't get any fresher than that," said Kenny Hobbs, Dutt & Wagner General Manager.
Dutt & Wagner of Virginia, Inc. is a family owned corporation with a full line of egg and egg products, beef, poultry, pork, deli items and packaging materials. Partnered with its sister company, Green Valley Poultry Farm (also of Abingdon, VA) and Dutt & Wagner are the largest producer and distributor of fresh shell eggs in Virginia. Selling eggs since 1926, Dutt & Wagner has been able to specialize in the production, supply, brokerage and export of eggs.
Headquartered in Abingdon, Virginia, K-VA-T Food Stores operates 106 retail food outlets throughout the tri-state regions of Southeast Kentucky, Southwest Virginia and Northeast Tennessee.

Ashton Pet Bed
Great purchase!
Our dogs love their new beds! They each received one for Christmas and have finally decided that sleeping on these beds is better than napping on our bed. So glad to finally have found a bed they are comfortable on. These beds are easy to wash and the bolster is just the right height to rest their head on when sleeping.
January 12, 2015
Best Pet Bed Ever!
As soon as I took this bed out of the box, I could tell it was high quality. It's very plush and soft. We have not purchased a bed for our yellow lab since she was a puppy. The last time she had a bed, she chewed it up and took it out in the backyard. The backyard was covered with the white stuff from the inside of the bed. Needless to say, we knew that we had to wait until she was out of the chewing phase. Our yellow lab is now 6 years old, and she absolutely loves her bed. Even our Boston Terrier loves it. I would highly recommend this bed to any dog!
December 29, 2014
Great quality
Bed is soft but not flimsy. Great quality, rich color. Always very happy with my Frontgate purchases.
January 14, 2015
Best Dog Bed I have owned
The quality, durability and Appearance of this bed are outstanding. I bought this bed for my Golden Retriever and she loved it, but I kept finding my black lab in it. My black lab has never liked or slept in a dog bed, she likes the couch and people beds better! When we found her sleeping in it all the time we immediately ordered another one for her. She loves it and now I have less dog hair on my couches and beds! It was a win win!
December 30, 2014
Always good products
Very nice bed, although, I should have ordered the larger on as my 2 dogs like to lay together,
December 12, 2014
The Best by Far!
My dog loves this bed! Be sure to buy using the inside measurements so your dog can fully stretch out inside the bed. Soft, beautiful, quality material.
December 2, 2014
I have purchased four of the "Comfy Couches" in the past and they are a great bed and all of my Greyhounds love them. This time I was looking for something just a little bit smaller to place in a specific area and the ASHTON PET BED is just right. All of the dogs have given it an Excellent rating!!!

Is the cover that's "removable for...washing.." referring to the fabric that covers the cushion where the pet lays, and not just the bolster section?
Please explain for me, because the bed my dog has now can only be unzipped and washed on the bolster section :-/
1 year, 1 month ago
Thank you for your interest in Frontgate. The Ashton Pet Bed comes in 2 separate pieces. The outer bed has a removable cover. The inner bed cushion (that the dog lays on) does not have a removable cover, but can be machine washed whole. The inner cushion is tufted so that the filling will stay in place during laundering.
How much taller are the bolsters than the middle part of the bed? I am trying to decide if the bolsters are short enough to be usable space ie. comfortable for the dog to lay their head on. Also there is only one photo on the website, are there any more available?
5 months ago
Thank you for your interest in Frontgate. The dimensions for the inside of the small Ashton Pet bed are 19"w x 11"d x 5"h. The outside height is 7"h.5 months ago

The percentage of patients reporting serious adverse events (SAEs) was higher for ONTAK than for placebo. Drug-related SAEs in ONTAK-treated patients were capillary leak syndrome (4%), dehydration (4%), hypotension (3%), fever (3%), hypoalbuminemia (2%), skin disorder (2%), chest pain (2%), vascular fragility (2%), fatigue (2%), hypersensitivity (2%), myocardial ischemia (1%), urinary tract infection (1%), blood pressure decreased (1%), joint stiffness (1%), myalgia (1%), carpel tunnel syndrome (1%), loss of consciousness (1%), respiratory distress (1%), dermatitis exfoliative (1%), erythema (1%), and rash generalized (1%). The frequency of SAEs decreased after the first two cycles of treatment. The percentage of patients overall who discontinued the study due to an adverse event was higher in the ONTAK group (20.0%) compared with the placebo group (9.1%).
"We are pleased that research continues with ONTAK in the treatment of patients with CTCL," said Judy Jones, Executive Director of the Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation. "This study reflects Eisai's ongoing commitment to satisfying unmet medical needs in oncology, particularly in CTCL, a form of cancer for which there is no cure."
About ONTAK(R) (denileukin diftitox)
ONTAK is a genetically engineered fusion toxin protein consisting of the amino acid sequences for the enzymatically-active portion of diphtheria toxin fused to the sequence of human interleukin-2, resulting in a molecule that is cytotoxic for cells bearing the target IL-2 receptor expressed on malignant cells.
ONTAK is indicated for the treatment of patients with persistent
or recurrent cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) whose malignant cells
express the CD25 component of the IL-2 recepto

Review: Taskbar - Windows 8 Style gives your Android device a cool control center
Get a Windows-style Start menu with all of its common features on your Android device.
While giving the user a nifty Windows-esque Start menu, Taskbar - Windows 8 Style looks a little awkward on most small-screen smartphones. The design is well executed, but it just doesn't shrink down well to five-inch and smaller screens. It's worth exploring, though, and some users will definitely love what it does since it's a neat way to transition from desktop computers to mobile devices.
The Taskbar - Windows 8 Style app plops a moveable "Start" button on your phone. When you tap it, you get a screen that looks and feels like the Start menu, which, despite the name, isn't the Windows 8-tiled Start screen, but the earlier, traditional Windows Start menu. It gives you access to all of your apps in a scrollable list. It even has tabs of your most recently-used programs for easy access and lets you pin programs to its taskbar. Your menu also includes common features like Airplane Mode and Bluetooth and a built-in task killer. Sadly, all of these features make the menu, itself, very, very small. Even when you stretch it out to cover the entire screen, it's a little hard to navigate. Though you can change a lot about the program's layout, you can't change the app's "Start" button icon without upgrading.Taskbar - Windows 8 Style presents a cool way to re-imagine your phone's layout, but there are parts of the app that just don't work for small-screen smartphones. Android tablet owners will be the ones who truly appreciate what this program does and reap the most benefits from using it.

Highlights from leaked UN draft report on Congo atrocities: 1993-1996
(Read article summary)Guest blogger Jason Stearns offers highlights of the period 1993-1996 from a leaked UN draft report that chronicles mass atrocities in the Congo between 1993 and 2003.
Finbarr O'Reilly/Reuters
As opposed to what some press accounts may have you believe, the UN mapping report is not a report on the Rwandan genocide of Hutu refugees in the Congo. The sections on the massacre of refugees is a small part of a 565-page report that chronicles many different mass atrocities between 1993 and 2003.
The purpose of the report is to jump-start the transitional justice process in the Congo. Other than a deeply flawed Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), nothing has been done to hold those accountable for the hundreds of thousands of violent deaths accountable. The report recommends a new TRC and a mixed tribunal to be set up to investigate and try the worst crimes, staffed by Congolese and foreign judges and prosecutors.
But you need to know what the report talks about, I don't expect you to read 565 pages. Here are the first highlights of the report, chronicling the period between 1993-1996. This period was less intensively documented, I think, as the team focused much of its efforts on the wars:
1. In 1990, Mobutu opened his dictatorship up to multiparty democracy. His main challenge came from civil society and particularly Etienne Tsisekedi's UDPS party, which had strong backing from the Kasaian community. In order to divide the opposition, Mobutu pitted the Katangan opposition against the Kasaian community in that province - hundreds of thousands of Kasaians had moved to Katanga to work on the railroads, in the mines and in public administration. Governor Katanga Kyungu wa Kumwanza rallied his JUFERI youth militia to attack Kasaians and chase them out of the provinces. The team indicates that as many as 780,000 Kasaians could have been expelled from the province between 1993 and 1995, many of them crammed onto freight trains, "coffins on rails," in which many died. Thousands died in these cars, due to unsanitary conditions in IDP camps and at the hands of JUFERI thugs.

I am the developer of a software ( CineToVidPro ) which allows to scan cine films (8 mm or 16 mm) with a standard flatbed scanner and to convert them to mpeg files that can be played with a standard DVD player ( e.g. VideoLan).
Normally the sound is recorded on this kind of films on a magnetic sound track, but recently I got the request to find out, if light sound tracks of Regular 16 cine films could be converted automatically.
To scan the recorded sound track would be no big problem. But I have no Idea how to convert the track image into a digital file (e.g WAVE) that could be played by a media player.
It is also no problem to extract the width of the sound track at certain position (e.g. every 1/12000 sec) and record the found values as digits in a file.
But how to get there from this digits to a sound.
It is obviously the opposite what is done with a wave file to show the sound visually ( in CDEX or other sound editors e.g. Audacity).
Has anybody an idea, how to transform the series of digits to make a WAVE file from them that c can be played, I think it is necessary to add a specific file header and a time code or other things.
Any assistance would be highly appreciated.
My dream would be something, that can be imported to e..g. CDex and would be accepted as an audio file scan.
Image of a light sound track.

Dense, powerful wine that impresses both with its rich fruit and its balanced tannins. The whole wine is finely integrated, black berry flavors shot through with acidity and touches of wood. Certainly a wine for aging. (4/ 2011)
One of the fabulous sleepers of the vintage and a wine for serious Bordeaux afficionados to consider buying, the 2008 is a blend of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 9% Petit Verdot that achieved 13.5% natural alcohol. Surprisingly backward for a 2008, it is medium to full-bodied with moderate tannins, lots of purity and abundant charcoal, black currant and floral notes. The sweetness of the fruit, depth of flavor and textured, lush mouthfeel in this medium to full-bodied, ageworthy 2008 are impressive. Give it 3-4 years of cellaring and drink it over the following two decades. I would not be surprised if it turns out to be as impressive as the 2010. (5/ 2011)
I really enjoy this rich and round wine, with subtle plum, tobacco and game aromas and flavors. Full and softly textured with lots of fruit and a caressing finish. Velvety tannins. So much chocolate too. Best after 2012. (12/ 2010)
Good full medium ruby. Sexy, very pure aromas of crushed blueberry, minerals and licorice lifted by a violet topnote. Dense, ripe and seamless, with terrific energy and a light touch to the tightly coiled flavors of dark berries and graphite complemented by spicy oak. This savory, dry, classic wine has the structure to ensure two decades or more of development in bottle. Finishes with real verve and grip. (8/ 2011)
Lilac, tar and cassis bush aromas are followed by a broad swath of mulled plum, black currant and maduro tobacco. The strong, mineral- and tar-filled spine drives through the finish, which picks up a smoldering edge. Drink now through 2018. (4/ 2011)
This wine is so good it's scary. Perfectly balanced and packed with flavor and round tannins. Some toasty nuances and plenty of minerals. One of the best 2008 Bordeaux. (Clyde Beffa, K&L Bordeaux buyer)

This post is a chapter from Dr. Timothy Tennent's book, 30 Questions: A Short Catechism on the Christian Faith available for purchase from our store. This resource makes for a great teaching tool in local churches, especially for catechesis purposes. We're featuring a chapter each week in hopes of encouraging you to pick up the book and share it with others as well.
For many people, including Christians, the final judgment of God might appear to be incongruent with the God of grace, forgiveness, and love which we have seen so powerfully in the person and ministry of Jesus Christ. We often downplay the Scriptures about God's judgment or relegate the topic to the God of the Old Testament. However, this is not how the Bible portrays the theme of God's judgment. Rather, the judgment of God is the final vindication of God's righteousness. It is a good and glorious thing, for final judgment is the time when God will set all things right. Jesus himself spoke of it quite often right in the pages of the New Testament. This final vindication involves two main things.
First, Judgment Day will reveal and make known all sins. The secrets of everyone's heart will be revealed. Romans 2:16 says, "This will take place on the day when God will judge men's secrets." Every thought, every idle word, every deed—even deeds done in absolute secrecy—will be made known and laid bare. Jesus said in Luke 12:2–3 "there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will ...

Ōśģ TouchArcade.com Says:
In its 1996 anniversary issue, Computer Gaming World listed the game as #147 in the "Top 150 Best Video Games of All Time." It has been inspiration for many dungeon crawlers created since...
It features completely redone graphics utilizing OpenGL ES to add depth to the stony visuals. It allows for pinch-and-spread zoom control to focus on the action at hand and features an optional on-screen mini map to aid in negotiating the twists and turns of each dungeon level.
But, really, what makes the game so well suited for the iPhone is its casual nature as compared to the typical roguelike. And that's not to say the game is shallow or light on dungeon crawling action, but rather I feel it's simply a bit more accessible to the typical gamer than, say, Nethack, Moria, or Rogue thanks to an economy of controls, spells, and the like.

Oatmeal Butterscotch Cookies
- 3/4 cup of butter (at room temp.)
- 3/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup of tightly packed light brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. of vanilla
- 1 1/4 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. of baking Soda
- 1 tsp. of coarse sea salt
- 1/2 tsp. of ground cinnamon
- 3 cups of rolled oats
- 1 1/4 cups of butterscotch chips
- 1 1/2 cups of shredded, unsweetened coconut
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking Soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the butter until it is creamy. Add both sugars and beat for about 2 minutes until the sugars are incorporated into the butter. Add the eggs one at a time, beating for one minuter after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Gradually add the flour mixture and beat on low until all the flour streaks have disappeared With a large wooded spoon or rubber spatula, stir in the oats, butterscotch chips and coconut. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Measure one well rounded tablespoonful for each cookie and allowing about 1 inch between them. Bake for 9-10 minutes until the edges start to brown. The cookies will still be soft in the center so allow them to sit on the sheets for about 5 minutes before removing them.

Monday, February 28
Prudential Center
Attendance: 15,836
Newark, NJ (Sports Network) - For the second consecutive night, Channing Frye's late basket gave Phoenix the win. This time his three-pointer from the top of the circle gave the Suns a 104-103 overtime victory over the New Jersey Nets.
However, unlike his buzzer beater to top the Pacers in overtime, this one with 6.6 seconds left came with a bit more drama.
Deron Williams attempted a bank shot in the final second, and as Kris Humphries redirected the tip-in towards the basket, the clock ran out. The shot appeared to be in unison with the final buzzer, and the referees had to go to a video replay to call off the basket.
"I didn't get a chance to look at it," Humphries said of his last second tip. "But from what I heard [the referees] couldn't tell so they had to go with the ruling on the floor."
Frye finished with seven points and eight rebounds, and despite Steve Nash's 10 points and 15 assists, the majority of Phoenix's scoring came from the bench.
Marcin Gortat scored a team-high 17 points while Hakim Warrick added 16 points and seven boards in the win, the Suns' fourth straight since returning from the All-Star break.
Brook Lopez paced New Jersey with a game-high 28 points and 10 rebounds. Anthony Morrow added 22 points, including 5-of-10 from long range, and Williams, who dealt with a cut on his left palm throughout the entire game, scored 13 and dished out 18 assists in the loss.
"It's starting to mesh," Lopez said. "I thought we played pretty well against the Suns."
The Nets have dropped six straight since before the break and will have three days off before a historic series with Toronto.
Next up for New Jersey is a two-game series with the Raptors at London's O2 Arena. The back-to-back games will mark the first-ever regular season NBA games held in England. The significance comes as the Nets and Raptors are the only NBA franchises to have foreign owners.
Knotted at 96-96 entering the extra period, the teams traded the lead to open the stanza, and the second of two Lopez free throws and a Humphries tip-in at 1:46 gave New Jersey an 102-99 edge.
After a Suns timeout, Gortat's reverse layup made it a one-point game, and after both squads went a combined 0-for-4 from the field, Lopez made the first of two from the line to set up the last-second heroics.
The Suns took a 69-66 lead into the fourth, and just after the midpoint they widened their lead to nine, 86-77, on a Warrick slam. Just as they did all game, the Nets responded, methodically trimming their deficit into the final minute. Morrow knocked down an off-balance three-pointer with 10.7 seconds remaining, cutting the Suns' lead to 94-93.
New Jersey failed to foul on the next possession, which allowed Frye to get an open dunk to put Phoenix up 96-93. However, the Suns attempted to foul Morrow on the next possession, and as Nash was grabbing hold of the New Jersey guard, he was able to get up a three attempt, allowing him to make all three from the line to tie the game at 96-96 with 2.7 seconds remaining.
The miscues continued for the Suns as they failed to get the inbounds pass off in time, forcing a five second call and turnover, which allowed New Jersey one last shot for the win. After inbounding the ball to Sasha Vujacic at the top of the key, he failed to get the shot off, sending the game into overtime.
"The way we executed [down the stretch] is not [indicative of] a playoff team," Suns coach Alvin Gentry said.
The Suns held a 26-18 advantage in the final minute of the first, and Ben Uzoh's layup with 18.7 seconds remaining along with Vujacic's half court three at the buzzer cut the Phoenix lead to 26-23 after one. The Nets held strong in the second, holding their deficit to 52-51 at the half.
Both teams shot poorly in the third quarter as the Suns took a 69-66 lead into the fourth.

The cleanliness.
Me and my significant other had a horrible experience. The staff expect one had ridiculous attitudes and were very unprofessional. For the price I paid, the room was so small, I was better off at a motel. I could of had more room, microwave, and mini refrigerator. Everything that hotel did not have. I have no idea what I was paying for considering this hotel lacked everything. It was the worst hotel we've ever been to. We hated staying there and we will not be returning.
The staff was a pleasure. They catered to any request. The location was perfect also - close to everything. The hotel itself was beautiful and the beg was heavenly.
Be carefull with payment - they charged me $ 300 per day for future "extra expenses", while the room cost was about 70$. Returned after intervention, as the front desk personnel seems not to uderstand what the problem is. My collegue has been charged twice for the same room.
Excellent location and great facilities.
The valet staff is the worst I've ever experienced.
Loved the crowd Very laid back. Great for young people, young couple. Loved the staff. Perfect location. Beautful interior.
Small room.
I was reading the reviews before I booked the room and I seen alot of reviews about the rooms being small I was thinking to myself well they can't be that small......I was wrong only one person can fit in that room! I love the lobby and service was great the bed omg so comfortable! But the room could only fit me and my one bag and I only weight 130 pounds...
The hotel was wonderful, nice atmosphere, comfortable bed,
I wantee a room with a bath and i didnt get it at first but after changing the room twice, i finally got a room with a bath.
Fitness center
For a so-called "green Hotel", they should add extra blankets in rooms. It is more ecologic to reduce room temperature and add blankets!
Internet is free
No refrigerator AC very noisy bed and cushions are not comfortable room is realy small
new 80" 4K Samsung TV in bar area. Small but functional lobby/bar/sitting area. Great restaurants in walking distance. Close Walgreens and a 7 story Sports Authority. 12 minute walk to Magnificant Mile. Connection to the Chicago Trolley just beside the McDonalds. Very friendy bar and concierge staff
Stay was too short!
The hotel was near several good places to eat and fairly easy to get to. The bed was great and the shower was pretty good.
My room was tiny, barely room for the bed and me. The TV remote was dead, toilet leaked and refilled all night, and the wifi was defective.
Location, Staff, Cleanliness, good free Wifi and Comfort.
My room was little, hair dryers not working even after it's changing with a different one; no fridge in the room; no complimentary coffee pot.
The staff was very helpful and most friendly. They made every effort to make sureI was comfortable. The fitness room, though compact, was well-outfitted with top notch equipment and free weights. Hotel is very clean.
The rooms are extremely small by American standards, and the helpful staff worked hard to make sure I did not have one of the smaller rooms! It is workable for one person, but I think would be difficult for two people to stay in one room. The noise level is high between rooms (water running, coughing amd various noises can easily be heard) and from the hall. If hotel guests could just shut their mouths when returning to their rooms it would be considerate.
The location is the best feature that the hotel currently has to offer its guests.
Front desk did not understand how booking.com reservation worked. No bath products in room. Plastic bags on bed as those housekeeping was interrupted and never returned. No menu in room, had to go online. Room service forgot my drink, received it...and quite watered down. Medium well burger was barely medium, unfortunately room service was closed by that time. Hair of unknown origin in shower.All around appearance of aging to rooms.
Central location. Valet parking
Expensive parking
The location was good for exploring Chicago. The room was clean and quite, and the wifi was ok.
I liked the modern look of the hotel as well as the location. It was located next to some very good restaurants and only a few miles away from downtown Chicago.
The rooms were absolutely tiny. As a college student trying to take my girlfriend somewhere for fall break, I feel as if I way over paid for our one night here. Also, our sheets had stains on them that we noticed before we went to bed, so we completely took them off and slept without them. Very mediocre experience. Would not stay here again.
Very noisy till late mornings,parking for ones vehicle is expensive
The location was fantastic if you need a place to stay for the Chicago Marathon. 4 blocks away is the red line on Chicago Ave. which you then take to Jackson and BAM! you're at the marathon! Great location to a lot of the downtown shops including the Magnificent Mile! The price was great since it was marathon weekend! The baggage room was quite handy since we weren't going to be able to get back to the room in time to check out from the race!
There was a concert going on outside at the Hard Rock which was pretty loud. Our room was super duper small...we kept banging into each other and had hardly any space to put our stuff. The room also only had a shower and no bath...not a huge deal, but as a runner I was bummed!
The beds, Wi-fi and and near the city
loudly air-condition, difficult to open the window
Staff friendly
My room location wasn't great, too much noise; wi-fi was quite slow, restaurant looked good but food was so-so

I notice some posts an Linear and Abstract Algebra have the 'proper' symbols for R, Z, C etc - how is this done?
They are not "proper" symbols for these things, the proper symbols (if that has any meaning) are just bold R, Z, C ... What you are referring to are the "black board bold" symbols which are a type face which mimics how the standard bold characters are written on a black board. But then these seem to be more or less standard, and someone else has already told you how to generate them.

CHICAGO - Fast-food workers say they're prepared to step up their campaign for higher wages and union representation, starting with a national convention in suburban Chicago, where more than 1,000 workers are expected to discuss the future of the effort that has spread to dozens of cities in less than two years.
About 1,300 workers were expected to attend sessions Friday and Saturday at an expo center in Villa Park, Ill., where they were to be asked to do "whatever it takes" to win $15-an-hour wages and a union, said Kendall Fells, organizing director of the national effort and a representative of the Service Employees International Union.
The union has been providing financial and organizational support to the fast-food protests that began in late 2012 in New York City and have included daylong strikes and a protest outside this year's McDonald's Corp. shareholder meeting that resulted in more than 130 arrests. At least two demonstrations have been held in the Charleston area.
"We want to talk about building leadership, power and doing whatever it takes depending on what city they're in and what the moment calls for," said Fells, adding that the ramped-up actions will be "more high profile" and could include everything from civil disobedience to intensified efforts to organize workers.
"I personally think we need to get more workers involved and shut these businesses down until they listen to us," perhaps even by occupying the restaurants, said Cherri Delisline, a 27-year-old single mother from Charleston, who has worked at McDonald's for 10 years and makes $7.35 an hour.
Delisline said she and her four girls live with her mother, but the family still has difficulty paying utilities and the mortgage while providing for her children. She said she has not been to a doctor in two years and does not get paid if she stays home sick.
"To have a livable wage, it's going to need to be $15 an hour," said Delisline. "We make the owners enough money that they have houses and cars and their kids are taken care of. Why don't (they) make sure I can be able to do the same for my kids and my family?" she said.
The campaign comes as President Barack Obama and many other Democrats across the country have attempted to make a campaign issue out of their call to increase the federal and state minimum wages.
The current federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour translates to about $15,000 a year for someone working 40 hours a week, though many fast-food workers get far fewer hours. Obama and others have called for increasing it to $10.10.
Fast-food workers say even that's not enough because most people working in the industry now are adults with children, rather than teenagers earning pocket money. The restaurant industry has argued that a $15 hourly wage could lead to business closings and job cuts.
A McDonald's spokeswoman did not return a message seeking comment. But the National Restaurant Association said Thursday that increasing wages to $15 will not solve income inequality and that the campaign was an attempt by unions to boost dwindling membership.
"Instead of demonizing an industry that opens doors for workers of all ages, backgrounds and skill levels, the focus should be on finding better solutions to lift individuals out of poverty," including policies that increase education and job training, said Scott DeFife, the association's executive vice president of policy and government affairs.
Turnout for the protests has varied, but they've struck a chord at a time when the gap between the country's rich and poor has widened. Executive pay packages also are coming under greater scrutiny, including that of McDonald's CEO Don Thompson, who was given a pay package worth $9.5 million last year. Nevertheless, shareholders this year overwhelmingly voted in favor of McDonald's executive compensation practices.
Nancy Salgado of Chicago said she and her two children share a bedroom after being forced to move into an apartment with two other adults after her hours at McDonald's were cut from 40 a week to about 24.
"I don't think $15 will make me rich. ... I just want an apartment for my family and be able to have my kids in their own room, to not have to wait for the washing machine or the bathtub, and I don't want to be behind on bills if I take time off or get sick," said Salgado, who earns minimum wage after 12 years with the company.
"If we've got to stop working and shut down (restaurants) to get it, that's what we're going to do," she said.

Busch Stadium, St. Louis, Missouri
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Roy Oswalt's early wildness gave the St. Louis Cardinals the edge they needed to finally beat the Houston Astros' ace.
Chris Duncan's two-run single with the bases loaded in the first inning capitalized on two walks by Oswalt and provided an early lead over a longtime nemesis in a 3-2 victory Thursday night. Albert Pujols homered while finishing a 6-for-10 series and Kyle Lohse carried a shutout into the seventh for St. Louis."Obviously, after the first inning you can see he got his stuff and got pretty comfortable," Pujols said. "When you face a great pitcher like Maddux or Zambrano or Roy, you need to get those guys early."The Cardinals took two of three from a team that had tied them for second place in the NL Central after taking the opener. They have won all three three-game series against Houston this season after losing the first game, and have won eight of the last 11 against the Astros overall.Oswalt (4-5) allowed three runs in seven innings, losing to the Cardinals for the first time in 11 starts dating to July 16, 2005. He was 5-0 with a 1.62 ERA in the previous 10 starts, although he took a loss in relief just before the All-Star break on July 8, 2006, and fell to 9-6 with a 2.90 ERA for his career against St. Louis.That list does not include two dominant outings in the 2005 NLCS, including the Game 6 clincher in St. Louis in the final game played at old Busch Stadium.He allowed three hits in his last six innings, including Pujols' 13th homer, and no more walks like those that haunted him in the first. The Astros have lost each of his last three starts, and he's 0-2 in that stretch."I was trying to be a little too fine," Oswalt said. "I think once I got behind guys, they weren't going to swing and get back in the count. I've thrown games like this, this year."Lance Berkman hit his 17th homer leading off the ninth against Ryan Franklin to cut the gap to a run before Franklin retired the next three in order for his fourth save in six chances. The game lasted 2:05, tied for third-fastest in the majors this season."Berkman's a great hitter, but there's no way he can hit a three-run homer," Franklin said. "So what if he hits a home run, I'm not going to pitch around him, I'm going to go after him."You've still got a one-run lead and three outs to get so you've got to bear down and knot up and get after it."Carlos Lee hit his 12th homer in the seventh for Houston, giving him a major league-leading 30 RBIs in May and leaving him one short of the franchise record for the month set by Jeff Bagwell in 1996.Berkman also doubled in four at-bats and is batting .474 this month (46-for-97) with nine homers and 22 RBIs. Berkman leads the NL with 47 RBIs and Lee is one behind, and Berkman is tied for the league lead in homers.Lohse (5-2) opened with six scoreless innings for the second straight start. Lee homered to straightaway center on the first pitch of the seventh to cut the gap to 3-1. Lohse was yanked after Hunter Pence followed with a single, allowing five hits and a walk."You get that deep and your team's got the lead, you can't argue with bringing in the bullpen," Lohse said. "You don't feel bad handing off there."Oswalt was allowed to bat with the Astros trailing 3-1 and a runner on second with two outs in the seventh, a big vote of confidence from manager Cecil Cooper, who said after the game "He's pitching well and he's my ace." That Oswalt had thrown only 79 pitches also factored into the decision, but then Cooper pulled him after a scoreless seventh.Duncan's two-run single capped a two-out rally in the first. Pujols singled, Oswalt walked Ryan Ludwick and Troy Glaus on four pitches each, and he alternated between a windup and the stretch position during the Duncan at-bat.Pujols' 13th homer tied Ludwick for the team lead, leading off the sixth to make it 3-0. He's a career .314 hitter (22-for-70) against Oswalt with four homers and nine RBIs. Oswalt has been bothered by a hip injury at times this season."I've got a lot of respect for him," Pujols said. "He's a great competitor, and even though he's not 100 percent he's battling and trying to do his best. That's pretty impressive, what he can do at probably 75 or 85 percent."Game notes
Cardinals 2B Adam Kennedy was 1-for-24 before lofting a single in the seventh. ... LHP Ron Villone made his 600th career appearance to start the eighth, getting Michael Bourn to ground out. He's 25th among active pitchers, and one of three Cardinals on the list. Braden Looper is 22nd with 614 appearances and Russ Springer is 23rd with 610. ... Berkman leads the majors with 150 total bases and 57 runs. ... Bourn stole his major-league leading 24th base. ... Lee is batting .181 (6-for-33) against the Cardinals, but with three homers and six RBIs.

Podcast #4 - Lilly Mason Live at The Cavern
Hey all, this is a 6-channel recording I did with the
portable at The Cavern Bar in Toronto on October 11, 2014.
The evening's acts were Miray and Lilly Mason, two fine
performers with some really excellent and interesting bands. It was a fun night to record.
Here are some samples of the show:
The full shows are available on iTunes. Just search for the "Alex Mine Music and
Sounds" Podcast on iTunes. The
recordings are about 45 minutes each.
Please note - I record shows for free when I
can to foster and promote the amazing Funk/Nu-Funk/Jazz/Groove scene in
Toronto. If you play music that fits
into this category and want me to record your show, contact me via my website
and if the venue and the date work for me, I will come down and record
your show gratis. Basically if it's funky or
groovy, I'm interested.
I also offer location/remote recording for very
reasonable rates for any genre. Also contact me via my website if interested.
Enjoy the recordings and thanks for stopping by!

One year later…
Life is a funny journey.
I started this blog and podcast back in January 2013. It was a really interesting experience for
the ensuing four months until a devastating personal tragedy derailed my
intended publishing schedule. At first,
I thought I'd be back to it within a month or so. A month turned into months, which now has
officially turned into 1 year and 2 days.
Of course, the funny thing about life is that even in the
face of tragedy, time marches on. Work
needs to be done. Bills need to be paid. Housework needs doing. Friends and family need you. And pains that once seem to engulf your soul
begin to dull and fade. And once you
pass the first anniversary of a tragedy, it starts to become a part of your
history and you start putting one foot in front of the other and begin to
remember who you were before the tragedy.
That's where I am now.
To be honest, this is the first time I've felt like writing
since I stopped a year ago. And I've had
a number of interesting recording and musical experiences in that time. There's lots of interesting material just from that. And there will
also be future podcasts and posts to come.
I've done some multitrack remotes. I had a professional ruin an important 48
track MADI multitrack concert recording for one of my bands due to internal
signal routing. I managed to save the
same recording through a combination of mixing the television broadcast feed
and a Zoom H1 that I placed on stage with me in front of the drum set. I've used that same H1 on other gigs and done
some A/B tests with it and my AKG 451s and DR-680. I'll save you the details, but my opinion is
that things sound like what they sound like.
And until someone re-invents the laws of physics, a Zoom will sound like
a Zoom. A DPA mic will sound like a DPA. 48 tracks (when they work) are better than 24
are better than 16, 8, 6, 4, and 2.
They're all good in their own ways.
But ultimately, things sound like what they are, don't they?
I will continue to talk tech when I feel like I can post
something that someone may find useful in their own life. Ultimately, my goal in that regard is to help
people make better-sounding recordings.
And I will post other writings, too.
I'm going to go easy on myself for the time being and not commit to a
schedule yet. I doubt it will be weekly again
for a while yet. But hopefully, eventually
I'll get back up to speed with it. One step
at a time. Putting one foot in front of
the other…
Be well and thanks for reading along.

A Short Pause
Hi all,
Due to some unforeseen personal circumstances, I unfortunately have had to cancel a wonderful podcast recording for April and have not had time to do any other posts over the past few weeks.
I will be back writing at the blog come May and/or June and will resume my regular publishing schedule and podcasts at that time.
Thank you for your understanding, thanks for stopping by, and I hope to see you around then!

Federal prosecutors have charged a Pomona water board member with falsely claiming he was a recipient of the Medal of Honor, the highest honor in the U.S. military.
Forty-nine-year-old Xavier Alvarez allegedly made the claim during a July 23rd meeting of the Walnut Valley Water District.
He is one of seven elected members on the Claremont-based Three
Valleys Municipal Water District board.
Alvarez was charged yesterday with misdemeanor falsely claiming
he won the Medal of Honor, which could lead to a year in federal
prison if he's convicted.
Authorities say there are only about 100 living recipients of the medal.
Alvarez never served in the military.
He denies making the Medal of Honor claim, but prosecutors say they have audio tapes of the meeting.
