Rated 3.6 out of 5 by 494 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by AJ19 Nice hotel in Indianapolis Hotel location is convenient, rooms are nice. The bar and restaurant are average. The food menu is rather limited and if like any specialty beers on tap or in the bottle, the selection is also very limited. You might want to check out some other local restaurants. November 5, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Nancy166 Recent Stay I was very disappointed with my stay this week at the Sheraton Indianapolis. I was there because of a promotion online to Starwood membership. Not sure of the benefit since I didn't get a discount for anything. I paid full price for parking, was asked to pay $12 for internet access, the staff was snippy and they had a problem with the heat which made the room exceedingly uncomfortable to sleep in. I mentioned it when I checked out that it was extremely hot even when I had turned the heat all the way off, they mentioned that maintenance was having problems and he guessed they hadn't fixed it yet. I was not offered anything when I told them how uncomfortable I was. I couldn't believe it, but I really wanted to get out of there so I didn't pursue it. I stay in Inidanapolis between 4-6 times a year. I will not be staying there again. November 16, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Kurt68 Reserved room not received I reserved a suite a month prior to travel, when checking in the hotel with my wife and 3 kids was told that there were no suites available and put in a room with two twin beds. It would have been much nicer to get the room I actually reserved. If I owned this hotel, there would be a bar at the roof top pool. In the 100+ temperatures I can see that being a huge money maker like the hotels in Vegas. The hotel is in a great location right near city center July 9, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by indyvisit1 Unfortunate Before I finish my review I will note that I would recommend and stay here however I did have a very disappointing experience. The hotel was nice as expected, great location, nice amenities, room was fine... all met expectations in regards to price. I did want to note that the hotel staff seemed to help us and set up transportation and cost which turned out to be false. From there the night staff was unacceptably rude. I understand he was dealing with an issue from another individual however from my experience of working in customer service this was treated completely wrong as we are still had expectations. I did read lots of compliments on service and I do agree of all other individuals yet just unfortunate this soured the overall experience and rating for me. One last note, I do not believe the thermostat did not work in my room. June 28, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by StefS Nice hotel, but room was very warm This hotel was in a great location, however when we arrived in the room it was very warm. We tried turning the thermostat down and come to find out 3 calls and several hours later to the front desk, their AC was no longer turned on the hotel. They said they would provide us with fans, which would have been better than what we were dealing with. The fans, however never made it to our room. I cannot sleep hot, so it made for a miserable nights sleep. December 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by travelwiseatattorney city center perfect You coudl not ask for a better location for a hotel - right on circle monument. Everything is easy access either walking or for zoo, childrent's museum and art musem, a quick easy drive- the roof top pool is great, and there is an excellent work out room -we were here for vacation for five days, and could not have picked a better place - hotel was booked full- so only negative is housekeeping fell a little behind - but a minor minor issue overall . July 22, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Casey7414 Made Simple Mistakes My visit was less than stellar. I paid for one night and used points for the other. I have done this several times before at other locations. This is the first time the management neglected to tell the cleaning staff that the guest was not checking out. So the cleaning staff cleaned the room and took my luggage downstairs and locked it up. When I returned to my room my luggage was missing with no explanation. That did not sit well with me for several reasons that I will not get into now. In addition to that I was supposed to have Clubhouse level access but that was not provided to me when I checked and I was not told about it, so during my visit to the front desk to retrieve my luggage I had to request Clubhouse access that was supposed to be included when I checked in. Needless to say I was/am very disappointed in your performance on this visit. July 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by bella12 Luke warm water This hotel was OK. Staff were friendly and responsive. Our cable TV was not calibrated properly, so we had to hand scroll to find channels. The hotel engineer could not resolve the issue. The shower water was luke warm as early as 7:30 AM 2 of the 3 days we were there. I was charged for internet even though I am SPG Platinum status, so I had to point this out at checkout. Overall, only an OK stay, not up to my expectations for SPG Sheraton Hotels. April 15, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Oaktree Location is only selling point. Overall not a bad hotel but not a great one either. The a/c didn't work very well, the roof leaked, and the lobby bathrooms were out of order. The roof in my room didn't leak but it did in the fitness center. Location was good for walking to shops, food, etc. Couldn't get a $0 balance receipt from the front desk to track expenses. No spa facility (hot tub, steam room, etc.). Took privacy sign off door at noon on first night but never got service. May 7, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Krista Above and Beyond! This hotel not only met all of our needs and expectations, it blew them out of the water! The Staff (Kelly, if we're naming names) was incredibly kind and helpful. Even when we hit a snag at book in (no fault of the hotels), everything was handled quickly and calmly. She even willingly compensated us for our trouble with complimentary parking. The room was spotless, spacious, and up-to-date.The view from the SPG floor was spectacular! We had the heart of the city right outside of our window. The location is excellent as well, we were within walking distance from shopping, dining, and the venue for the event we were in town for (Old National Centre). Overall, this was hands down the best hotel experience I have had anywhere. Unfortunately, the stay was not quite long enough, but that gives me all the more reason to come back in the future! October 27, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by BiffJ6594 Twilight Zone Stay We have stayed at the Sheraton City Centre a number of times in the past. This time we had major challenges getting our room cleaned. (only cleaned two out of the three days were were there) Management has since recognized that there may have been a breakdown in process and has since taken the steps to make corrections; and, they have bent over backwards to make us whole regarding our inconvenience. We will stay there in the future. November 28, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by JRP04 Room for Improvement A very good location but the facility did not meet expectations. 1. We were arriving late so I called ahead of time and asked if we could have sheets available for the sleeper sofa. I was told it was "not possible" because they didn't have access to the room (???) 2. The lock on the door was not mounted properly and was falling off - held by one screw 3. The room was recently renovated but housekeeping had not thoroughly cleaned it. There was dust on many things, likely left from the construction. 4. The shower was slow to drain and the water pressure was low. 5. Modling was broken off the bathroom counter 6. No shampoo and just one bottle of water in the room. 7. The Club Room was nice but we had to walk around the fans placed to cool the room off. None of these severely impacted our stay but a number of little things add up and leave a negative impression. April 13, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Flora Staff is outstanding This's our 2nd time staying at this facility.The new decor is refreshed and uplifting. Staff is friendly and helpful. We're upgraded to a king suite on the club level when we request it. Food in the lounge is plentiful and great. But the vent in our sitting area is so loud that it bothers my husband who sleeps in the sofa bed. The toilet keeps on clogging that we need someone to come up twice to fix it. Facility is kinda old. January 28, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by ajf2118 Desperately Needs to be Renovated This is an old, outdated facility that desperately needs a complete renovation. The rooms are old, the plumbing is sub-par, the walls are VERY thin, the closets are half-height, and the HVAC is horrible. Even the ironing board is a small, non-standard size. Not a comfortable stay. It's age really shows in comparison to a brand-new alternative that's 2-3 blocks away. On the plus side, there is a full starbucks off the lobby. April 19, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bridesmom55 Friendly and caring staff! The staff was very responsive to our needs. We called to ask for extra pillows, blankets and towels and within a few minutes there was a knock at the door. We utilized the Club Lounge for evening snacks and again in the morning for the continental breakfast. The lounge hostess was excellent! She was very attentive and personable! We had a great experience!! September 22, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 Right in the heart of downtown This hotel was within a short walking distance from major shopping areas, multiple upscale and medium scale restaurants, as well as the local venues for both concerts (the reason for our most recent stay) and various hometown sports teams. The hotel had a very modern, lovely decor, with an understated elegance. We were located on the Club Level, and enjoyed the manager's evening complimentary cocktail hour, as well as a refreshing continental breakfast. The parking was convenient-although we normally use the valet service, we were unable to park at the hotel entrance due to two large coach buses blocking the area. We were given a complimentary parking permit, as my husband and I had driven in from different areas of the state, and required two parking spaces during our stay. The staff were very courteous & accomodating. We will definitely stay at the Sheraton again! August 13, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Librarian1 Hotel is located in the heart of Indianapolis Nice location,view was lovely (corner room). But, there were a couple of issues: a/c wouldn't cycle automatically (so I either froze or roasted) and the entrance light was out, which the staff tried to fix but couldn't. They offered to move me, but it wasn't bad enough to insist on a move on a full-house weekend. They did give me breakfast vouchers. Food -mediocre; eat elsewhere. Staff is very responsive and courteous. September 26, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Marissa7 Great place and great staff. Everyone from the manager, front desk, restaurant staff, and housekeeping were so gracious and friendly. Hugh who worked in the Alexender Bar really made us feel so special. We were very glad we choose your hotel. My one complaint is the rooms have very small, ineffective mirrors. Seemed like there is plenty of wall space to put full length mirrors. But when we asked the front desk they sent us some pronto. So helpful! February 12, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by DrDH The waiting staff needs trained. I arrived and had to wait in line while the front desk had only one person working. Had to go find the person to valet park my car and had to leave car out front locked. Went to Alexander Bar for bit to eat. I have stayed her several times and the females are always complaining about something in front of customers..we're out of dinner rolls...I cant believe this place...we're out of...etc" They need to go to the back room and wash their laundry. Very unprofessional. They didn't have the usual breakfast for platinum and didn't tell anyone. SO I go up there and nothing there. Went to front desk and got a coupon for buffet. Went in and served myself..finished my entire breakfast and never got a coffee or a glass of water. Finally just left the coupon on the table and checked out. The front desk is really trying to perform customer focused but the food staff are just abysmal. May 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by allecat33 Everything was great, except.... I called last minute and got a great room that met our needs - sleeping space for 5, hors d'oeuvres, beautiful pool, continental breakfast, but we saw a GIGANTIC roach in our room. Luckily, one of the girls I was staying with lives in Central America and is used to squishing all sorts of nasty bugs, because the rest of us couldn't handle it. I would recommend that staff do some extermination before I'd come back. August 15, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jo49 Pleasantly Surprised This hotel has been remodeled and is located within walking distance of many points of interest. The beds are great. My only complaint was the parking as the machines were broken and you had to get out of your car and pay for parking before you could get the bar to raise. Had the staff informed me I needed to pay the parking ticket prior to checkout I would have done that and saved myself a lot of frustration. May 9, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Hylandr26 Sheraton Indianapolis The staff at the hotel were very helpful and professional, especially the Bellman at entrance who helped out numerous times (sorry, forgot name). The rooms were very nice and comfortable and the hotel is located within walking distance of everything. October 20, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Preston This hotel has gone down hill Have stayed at this locations before a year ago. I have never seen a hotel change so much in such little time. Very understaffed. The condition of the hall ways were worn and large plywood panels covering multible sections of the walls with floor edging torn away from the wall . The noise or lack of noise proofing made the rooms very un-private . If not for my family being with me I would have left.the hotel . November 25, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Eileen28 Room I was upset that when we arrived we were told that the hotel was full and the only room available was next to the elevator. We had made our reservations months before as part of a wedding group and I could not understand how this could happen. The staff was apologetic, but said there was nothing they could do. The only way we were able to sleep was to keep the tv on all night to block out the elevator noise. September 23, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by nikki74 first time in the city this hotel was below my expectations. I stayed at othe sheratons before so i was assuming they would have the same quality of service. the lobby had a funny smell too it . the bathroom was small and the toilet was in an akward place. the major issue was that the hotel caused a mix up in my bank that resulted in a negative balanace to my account. the wi-fi was only offered in the lobby. not woth the price July 29, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Icral222 This hotel was disappointing. We made reservations several months in advance and guaranteed with a credit card. When we arrived at 4pm, they had no rooms. They said housekeeping was slow, they gave us a horrible room that only had a sofa with a pullout bed. There was no closet to hang our clothes and it was nasty. The air conditioning didn't work and it was 88 degrees. I would not recommend this hotel. It needs a serious overhaul. August 29, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Ginny99 Faulted check in Eta Pi Kappa charitable sorority had our annual convention at the Sheraton Downtown Indy Facility. Check-In for each person had a very than desired experience. One of our ladies was even told she had to be a guest of the hotel to be a guest to be in the lobby (yes, that was very awkward for sure!). Also, over half of our rooms booked several months in advance were not ready until almost 6pm. June 30, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Shane4 This hotel has a great value Overall, the quality of the room was great for the price we paid. I wish there was a fridge and that the wireless was free, but the room was clean, there was plenty of counter space and extra seating. The staff was extra friendly! I also would have liked more room to move around...the closet was right by the bathroom and it made it a tight squeeze with two people getting ready at the same time. April 21, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by James317 pleasant staff I chose this location because it is close to everything happening downtown. The room was comfortable and the service was more than expected. October 28, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Minimarathon Hotel website To see the facility information, I looked up the hotel website. It was bizarre. Restaurant information was so wrong and wifi info was not updated. To make a reservation for one of the restaurants, I needed to call twice but I still couldn't do it because nobody answered even I called after the time a hotel clark told me. Website is a face of hotel and this website totally failed the purpose. May 4, 2014

Sept in Estes
Great condo! Had deer in backyard, elk in the front yard and a trout from backyard stream for lunch. Best equipped kitchen we've had. Bed comfortable but needed the stepstool to climb into it. Condo was clean, attractive and close to restaurants, shops and the PARK. Would recommend this condo for young & old.
Great Value
My wife and I stayed for a week. Great location! Very quiet ! Well stocked. Very clean. Great front balcony to catch afternoon sun after a long day of hiking! Honest and very responsive owners .
Can't wait to visit Willow Creek again!
Our family loves Willow Creek! This was our second summer here and we have booked our third. We spent days in Estes Park and hiking in RMNP. Our evenings BBQing, playing cards and board games at the kitchen table. The creek by the cabin is great to listen to in the evening, sitting on the giant patio with a cup of tea. We have three kids two are teens and even with no cell phone service or tv they LOVED it and are looking forward to another year. The property manager answered all our questions quickly and made sure we had everything we needed.

Camel racing in Qatar boasts a long tradition, once a simple form of entertainment has now evolved into a fiercely competitive and expensive sport.
Today camel racing is an expensive hobby that few can afford because some breeds cost more than the most luxurious cars in the world, with prices reaching as high as one million Qatari riyals ($360,000).
"Camel racing is a sport we inherited from our ancestors, and it appeals to young people in the Gulf in general and Qatar in particular," said Mansour al-Mohannadi, the owner of camel named "al-Abka".
"Every year, several camel races are held in Qatar and other Gulf countries. The races attract enthusiastic crowds of dignitaries, citizens, and residents. Participants compete for valuable prizes. The most valuable prize is the Golden Sword awarded at the end of the year at the Al-Shahaniya track in Doha," he told Al-Shorfa.
Tala al-Nehma, owner of a camel breeding farm, said many farm owners spend heavily on camel breeding, adding that the Qatari government provides many benefits to support farm owners, including water and veterinary services.
He discussed other major expenses that farm owners must shoulder.
"In order to become a camel breeder, you need a large tract of land that is suitable for breeding and be able to cover feed costs because the price of camel feed has increased from five riyals ($1.30) to 10 riyals per half kilogram," he said.
"There is also the cost of (artificial) insemination for some breeds of camels, which could be very high, especially if it is done outside the country."
Al-Mohannadi paid 110,000 riyals ($30,000) to fly al-Abka from Qatar to Oman to have it artificially inseminated. He said the trip was a small price to pay considering the potential returns he could earn from a purebred camel.
Al-Nehma said camel trading is conducted throughout the Middle East and the Gulf in particular. There are good breeds in Iraq, Syria and parts of North Africa, which are usually cheaper than Gulf camels, he said.
The first set of camel races began in Qatar earlier this month, the launching point for a racing season that continues through February and features local and Gulf region tournaments.
Al-Shahaniya camel racing track, north of Doha, holds local tournaments every Friday from November through February. Distances vary by tournament, but each race rarely exceeds five kilometres.
Robot jockeys replaced child jockeys after the Council of Ministers issued a decree in 2004 that prohibited the use of child jockeys because of safety risks.
Camel races in Qatar attract wide media attention. Khalid Mohamed Makhlouf, an Egyptian sports media analyst who follows camel racing, said they "reflect the disposition of [Qatari and Gulf] society, which still values camel racing."
"The tournaments have become a Qatari hallmark and draw crowds from outside the country, especially tourists who arrive during the tournament season. The races are now global in every sense of the word."

pull behind mower
Has anyone tried the pull behind mowers that are off set to increase mowing width? I am thinking of getting a 66" to pull behind a JD X 500.
I have 2 swishers, a rough cut and a fine cut. Things to think about are #1 they only add about 1/2 of their cut width. #2 cornering ( cutting close to fruit trees) requires constant attention. #3 Backing up is a b... that said I love mine but wont let my 30 yo son mow in the orchard.
Many years ago, when riders were just coming along, i had a large lawn and side area to mow. I tried using a standard push rotary, but it was tiring. so, i made up a side hitch for the lawn tractor/mower, and that cut the mowing time. But, as others say, mowing with that rig is tricky and one sided. And, forget backing up. RJ
ravenh2001, please explain your comment #1 above? Not sure what you mean there. I have a swisher 60" pull behind as well. It has an adjustable length off-set bar that attaches to the hitch of pulling machine. I can off set mine and get a 10ft cut path since my mower has a 60" deck too.
Pull behinds are great for steeper hills and around ponds too. Can mow right up to the water line.

Google Patents Telling Time 267
from the ok-ok-I'm-with-theo-on-this-one dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
perhaps the useful and novel part of the patent was in steps 1-500?
Perhaps. But where's the non-obvious part?
This is about as close as I've seen to a "System for accomplishing a well known task with a computer".
This patent sounds like complete rubbish. I'm pretty sure that FedEx and several other companies have been giving me an estimate as to when my parcel will arrive for some number of years.
Oh, I see, so when Google patents absurd things, it's a protest against the patent system. Like when they patented changing their logo for special events and holidays [pcworld.com] back in 2001. Thank goodness Google is rebelling against the patent system by patenting the invention of "periodically changing story line and/or special event company logo to entice users to access a web page."
You mean at the top of the fucking page? Where the toolbar would be?
An optimist believes we live in the best world possible; a pessimist fears this is true.

Rent seeking, meet regulatory capture.
A perfect reflection of the people that voted for them.
Actually, it demonstrably isn't. Some reasons why:
1. Gerrymandering. For example, the party that got the most votes won't hold the most seats in Congress come the next term.
2. This is a lame duck session. So it's actually a reflection of the electorate from 2 years ago, not the current electorate.
3. The "money primary", where candidates must impress potential donors to even have a chance of impressing the electorate, ensures that proposals that might hurt large donors are never even considered.
There are many opinions widely held by the American public that are nowhere near actually getting through Congress. For instance, a majority of Americans would approve the federal legalization of marijuana, but such a proposal has never even come close to getting a floor vote in Congress.
With their own torches that they'll use to set fire to stuff, so they'll have an excuse to arrest the lot.
Yes, I agree. Sequestration is the more accurate term that was used when the idea was first proposed.
However: the 24 hour media engine needs it's narrative, both major parties need something that "went wrong" that can conveniently be blamed on the other, and the wealthy really want to keep their excessively low effective tax rates(not that we're fixing capital gains). This stupid "emergency" is a natural consequence of a bunch of people with something to gain.
That is not to say the particulars of the "debate" are all completely OK. For example, those in congress who wish block the debt ceiling again can indeed crash the bond market, if they push it too far.
If tax credits and rebates are what make wind profitable.
Lots of industries start with various forms of government subsidy. The mistake made in ontario was thinking that the price of wind turbines was going to remain as high as it was for a lot longer.
The government was trying to convince the public that wind generators weren't going to destroy property values, deafen children etc. They were willing to take a loss on this up front in the hopes that by the time generation came down in price people wouldn't put up a huge protest about it. Unfortunately for the government, the price came down far faster than anyone anticipated, which is good for basically everyone else.
Had they stayed hugely expensive the government would be basically subsidizing half a dozen wind turbines here and there to show off, which, on the scale of things costs basically nothing, and if it made it easier to convince people to install a few thousand of them 20 years from now so much the better. But the price came down much faster than they anticipated.
The universe is an island, surrounded by whatever it is that surrounds universes.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
We can't spend our way out of the recession
Like an earnest gardener, media coverage focuses on any sign of a green economic shoot, any indication that things are getting better. Even if the news is that things are getting worse more slowly, and that unemployment is still rising but not as quickly as we feared, we breathe a sigh of relief.
However, our optimism is at best wary; we want evidence beyond warm days and long summer evenings. The challenge is knowing what to believe, and who to believe, in a deluge of economic news. Who can we trust amidst so much uncertainty? Who can give us the information we need to chart our financial course to safety in such turbulent waters?
For most of us, faith in conventional sources of financial advice has been badly shaken. Financial institutions and advisers provided little if any warning about the meltdown. The financial professionals have floundered, as have we all.
Given that we have looked to governments to solve the economic crisis, maybe we should also look to governments for advice on how to keep our own more modest financial boats afloat. Unfortunately, it is here that we confront a troubling paradox.
If individuals were to act like governments, we would maintain or even increase our level of household spending as part of our families' stimulus package. We would support this increased level of spending by plunging further into debt, or back into debt, and remaining there for years if not generations to come. We would invest in infrastructure, perhaps a giant flat-screen television, home renovations or a new car.
We would not have a credible strategy for getting out of debt except for the hope that general economic conditions will improve to the point that our higher salaries and bonuses will melt our debt load like ice cream in the summer sun. (Does anyone really believe that governments can get out of debt without raising taxes?)
Following this model that governments provide would lead us to deep, deep trouble. Unlike financial institutions and automakers, we are not too big to fail, and fail we will. We will spiral into debt and then, when interest rates rise in the wake of inevitable inflation, we will be done like toast.
Doing just the opposite of what governments are doing means saving rather than spending. In this model we would trim expenditures to the bone, hunker down until the economy begins to rebound and then wait a bit more until the rebound is secure. We would make the car last another year, enjoy a staycation and look for the cheaper Chardonnay even if it was too oaky.
And yet, here is the paradox. If we turn our backs on the example provided by governments, the recession will last even longer. If the stimulus packages of governments are not matched by individual spending, then we are stuck. Even the massive, unprecedented deficit-fuelled expenditures of the American government will not be enough if individuals do not similarly throw spending caution to the wind.
If individuals and their governments are marching off in different directions to different drummers, as a country we may not be able to find our way forward.
So what will I do? Despite the clear summer skies and balmy weather, I will hunker down, with the possible exception of that oaky Chardonnay. If the economic recession lingers on, I will not accept blame that it is a consequence of my own caution.
I may be a poor economic citizen by passing up on the infrastructure investment that a new flat-screen TV would provide, but hopefully I will survive to fight and work another day.

4 Feb 2014"Hard won lessons learnt controlling and managing complex engineered projects"
The mandate of the Australian Cost Engineering Society (ACES) is to support professional development of the skills required to control time, money and change on major projects.
Our members have considerable experience in control of cost and time on all size projects but for some there is a particular focus on engineering construction projects of the $100 million plus range.
The specialist project control skills applied on large and mega projects are also applied by our members to other types of projects such as building, maintenance, software and other highly technical projects.
We have common cause with a number of other professional groups such as Quantity Surveyors, Project Management, and aspects of Chartered Accounting. However we bring specialist hands-on skills for reliable control of complex and significant projects to deliver a defined scope within cost and time targets. Some of these project control skills are generally known as planning, scheduling, estimating, budgeting, financial analysis, forecasting, contract management and change control. We bring an integrated and targeted approach to control of projects.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days – interviewed at VMware in December 2011.Interview Details
CRAZY company.
Both my phone interview and team interview went well and they informed my about the "next step" which will be a second round interview. Next, after 3 weeks later, I just got a short email stating that the team has re-accessed that position and not willing to move forward with me!!!
My question then why did you talk about "next step" ???
It is not that I am out of job or begging a job from them - but some professional communication is rare there.
It is a bureaucratic company who got some cash in their hands - but lacks of decent, bare minimum professionalism.Interview Questions

@MartinFreeman Beautiful. Simply put, most people aren't going to criticize something they are a part of and believe in wholeheatedly.
I can't even begin to respond to this nonsense article...
@JoshuaCurry Precisely. We already have a nice crop of young WRs: Aiken, Brown, & Campanaro. Smith Sr. is what, 36? Still a great #2 to have for the next yr or two. We need a #1 type guy (We've never had that & Torrey never stepped into that role, performance-wise), and preferably a vet to help school the younger guys we are molding for the future. Marshall would be perfect for Joe. He can go deep and actually Attack jump balls too, unlike some WRs.
@RobertBass I highly doubt that. Torrey should know he's not going to get paid top WR money in the market, but maybe the team let him go out and see what he can fetch. If it's decent, they'll match. If it's too high, they'll let him walk. I like our young WRs along with Smitty, but we need a bonafide #1 who can attack the ball and get separation almost every play, and can run great routes other than a 9.
@purplecity555 Something Torrey greatly failed to do in that game at the end. Still very disappointing, but I put most of the lost blame on the defense. We really need to upgrade that secondary. Elam on the hot seat.
@wickedsolo Personally, I'm fine with offense right now. Yea, we lost a big playmaker in the middle with Pitta going down, but think offense has played pretty damn well. Defense is pretty stellar, excluding secondary.
Google Now is what puts this head and shoulders above anything else that wants to compete in this space.
I fux with this. #jetsgo
@terryrmyers1 DingDing! Wn8 fucking sucks!! Seriously.. I mean, I'm Google mobile and whatnot, but loved Windows on the desktop. It's stupid AF now. Seen a mockup of what Win8 COULD have been... http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/desktopoy.jpg

text: Benefits TDFs Praised by Different Types of Participant Investors By Rebecca Moore email@example.com | October 16, 2012 Page 1 of 2 View Full Article October 16, 2012 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – AllianceBernstein has found that whether plan participants consider themselves "active" or "accidental" investors, they give target-date funds (TDFs) praise. Thirty-eight percent of participants surveyed called themselves active investors—noting that they started saving early, have confidence about their current financial situation and actively manage their investments or the managers that invest for them. Sixty-two percent of participants consider themselves accidental investors, unenthusiastic about saving and investing, insecure about their current financial situation and lacking confidence in any investment ability. Among both groups, TDF usage is at an all-time high: 39% of actives said they use TDFs (up from 29% in 2009) and 27% of accidentals said they use them (up from 21% in 2009). In addition, 87% of actives and 72% of accidentals said they are equally or more satisfied with their TDFs than with other investments in their plans. Active investors feel comfortable with their investment choices and their retirement in general with TDF's asset-allocation options. Accidental investors like the simplicity and ease of TDFs. Joe Healy, head of AllianceBernstein's Defined Contribution Client Experience, commented: "It's striking that despite the almost polar opposite behavioral differences between active and accidental investors, both groups give TDFs high marks. It certainly suggests that sponsors can stave off behavioral biases and encourage savings by defaulting people into easy-to-understand investment solutions like TDFs that also provide sophisticated asset-allocation features to satisfy savvy investors."
