The Atlas Crank neck brace has been designed for use in BMX, Mountain and Downhill. The Atlas Crank is based off of the original Atlas Brace. The Crank has been revamped for the needs of cyclists. The Atlas crank has 3 different height options, 4 possible back support options, 2 possible strap options, and 2 strap systems. All these possible options and features make the Atlas Crank super versatile in its fitment. This fitment produces a near tailor fit for almost any rider.
The Atlas crank features ERS. ERS stands for Emergency Release System. The ERS is able to provide an easy removal in case of a severe crash. This is very important when time is of the essence. The Atlas Brace is also the first non-rigid brace. Atlas has created a simplified design. This allows for the frame to flex up and down in the rear, this maximizes comfort and minimizes the "trapped" and bulky feeling. All hardware is made from lightweight and durable 6061 T6 aluminum.
The Atlas Crank is perfect for any rider looking for a brace that is versatile in its fitment and safe in its construction. The Atlas Crank has been designed with cyclists in mind; this tailored design adds security and comfort whenever you put this brace on. Design by riders for riders even more reinforces this feeling.
Tyke Brace: 24" - 28" (61cm - 71 cm)
Prodigy Brace: 29" - 33" (74cm - 84 cm)
Small Brace: 33" - 36" (84cm - 92 cm)
Medium Brace: 37" - 41" (94cm - 104 cm)
Large Brace: 42+ (106 cm+)

Smells better than pumpkin pie cooking?
I ordered a Brandied Pumpkin & Chestnut Candle after reading through the description of ingredients and reviews and was a little apprehensive in doing so since I couldn't imagine a candle with pumpkin not smelling similar to a pie. Imagine my surprise when it smelled even better! I gave this candle away as a gift on Thanksgiving and ordered another one as a birthday gift for someone else and both individuals love the aroma wafting through their house. Now I have to save up my money so that I can purchase one for myself. Keep your new scents coming!
Was this review helpful?
Yes No
While I'm not a big candle person, this is the most wonderful candle I've ever smelled anywhere. The fragrance carries through the house, but it's light and makes everything seem fresh.
This may be the best money I've spent!
Brandied Pumpkin & chestnut candle
My sister absoluely loved the candle. Cant wait to give my other sister the same choice of candle for her birthday Nov 1rst. Fall is her favorite season. Thank you for creating such a unique choice of fragrance in a candle.
Classic and modern but vintage
Growing up, my grandmother always made pumpkin pie from an old family recipe. It was what I looked forward to the most at Thanksgiving. This candle brings me back to being young and hiding the leftover pie in the fridge to save for breakfast the following morning, a custom I still do all these years later. The frangrance has the right balance of pumpkin spice and warm woods. There is a rich depth to the fragrance. It is fall and falling leaves, carrying firewood and simmering spices. When you smell it for the first time there is an immediate recollection of autumn and memories past. And then there is a celebration of customs and traditions yet to come.

Caterer Faith Fairchild and family are living in one of historic Cambridge, Massachusetts', venerable Brattle Street houses while the Reverend Tom teaches a course at the Harvard Divinity School and does some soul searching -- is his Aleford parish his true calling? One night in downtown Boston, Faith is startled by a face from her past. It's Richard Morgan, a former boyfriend from her life as a single woman in Manhattan. Their heady, whirlwind affair in the waning days of the self-indulgent 1980s ended abruptly. Now he's back, as exciting as ever.
Then something occurs that turns a pleasant sabbatical into a nightmare -- Faith discovers a diary, written in 1946 and hidden in the attic, that reveals an unspeakable horror. Suddenly dark secrets seem to permeate every room. And with Richard guarding strange secrets of his own, Faith is soon caught up in solving more than one troubling mystery ... with a murderer lurking a little too close to home.

As the nation hurtled from one fiscal crisis to the next last year, Democrats and Republicans argued bitterly over the best solution — tax increases or spending cuts. But members of the U.S. House did agree on one thing: There was enough money for them to travel the globe at taxpayers' expense.
At least 172 House members spent more than $1.5 million in 2012, visiting more than 90 countries and every continent but
In all, House members spent more on 864 international stops last year than in either of the two previous years, congressional records show.
And the actual costs are much higher than Congress reported.
U.S. House members' trip reports do not include costs for flights by often-used military transports, which run more than $10,000 per hour. Instead, only commercial flight expenses are documented.
The reports also do not detail expenses for spouses, who often accompany congressional members on trips at taxpayer expense.
Nearly 20 percent of the recorded travel costs last year — $260,000 — were incurred by 20 House members no longer in Congress. Most of those members traveled after announcing they were retiring, lost re-election bids or declared they wouldn't seek office again.
House members typically defend travel as a necessary part of their jobs, especially on defense, foreign affairs, intelligence or emerging trade zones.
But the Herald-Tribune investigation found that in 2012,
And no House member reported visiting
Other destinations included the Mediterranean
"If you think there are members abusing it — there are," said U.S. Rep. Tom Rooney, a Florida Republican who says he only travels when it's relevant to the committees on which he serves.
The Herald-Tribune's investigation showed that:
• Former Rep. David Dreier, R-Calif., was the most traveled, spending 58 days overseas visiting at least 18 countries at a minimum cost of $67,000 to taxpayers.
• A month after returning from Monaco, Democrat Dennis Cardoza, also of California — who announced in 2011 he was leaving Congress — spent seven days in Ireland, Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal, then abruptly quit the House three days after returning to the U.S.
• More than half of
• Twelve states had no House members travel overseas, including
• California Republican Dana Rohrabacher billed the government for the single most expensive trip, a seven-day excursion to
The amount spent on Congress' international travel is not a vast sum, given the $3.8 trillion federal budget. But the spending appears to contradict pleas for fiscal restraint by congressmen, who have an approval rate of just 16 percent from voters, according to a May 9
Even some House members say the travel has gotten out of hand in a time of deep cutbacks.
Rep. Walter Jones, R-N.C., reintroduced a bill early this year to limit foreign travel to only the most critical needs.
"I know too many times they are taking trips to European counties or Southeast Asia where we don't even have troops," said Jones, who made no international trips at taxpayer expense last year.
As with other bills aimed at restricting travel or increasing disclosure, Jones' legislation has gone nowhere.
Tracking congressional travel remains notoriously difficult. House records often include general numbers and are typically filed months after the trips. They do not disclose when spouses go along, or what costs are incurred by the Defense Department for ferrying House members on more than 300 VIP planes.
And they don't detail what, if anything, was gained during a given trip.
The Herald-Tribune investigation did not include travel by members of the U.S. Senate, which provides less detailed and accessible disclosure online than the House.
House leaders are showing more sensitivity to international travel. House Speaker John Boehner, following budget fights with President Barack Obama, told members he would not approve international trips using military transports.
The result is more commercial airfare costs in 2013. When nine members of the House and seven staffers flew to
Since January of this year, dozens of members have traveled to locations including
The travelers this year have included Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Longboat Key, who visited 14 counties in 20 days over three weeks, primarily
There are two primary ways members of Congress and their staff are allowed to travel internationally, with the reporting requirements varying for each.
Members can accept international trips paid for by various special interest groups — examples include the American Israel Education Foundation and the Turkish Coalition of America — to promote better relations.
In 2012, 78 House members traveled to 30 nations on such trips, according to the regular disclosure reports Congress requires for such travel. The reports do not include trip costs.
Less transparent is international travel by Congress paid for by taxpayers. To travel, members need only secure approval from their committee chair or the House speaker. Those trips are reported by each committee in the Congressional Record, a near-daily publication by Congress.
Even congressional researchers are stymied in trying to assess the amount of overall travel.
"There is no single source that identifies all international travel undertaken by the House or Senate, and no means to identify the number of trips taken, destinations visited, travelers, total costs, or costs paid for by funds appropriated to government entities other than Congress," says a report prepared by the Congressional Research Service and released in March 2012.
Few trips raise more questions of value to taxpayers than those made by departing members of Congress.
The Herald-Tribune found that the most prolific traveler last year was Dreier, the former
Following the announcement, Dreier, who chaired the Rules Committee, took seven trips to at least 18 countries over 58 days.
As a committee chairman, Dreier could travel without seeking approval from anyone else in Congress.
He did not respond to repeated attempts to reach him for comment.
Dreier, who served in Congress for 32 years, made his final trip in October, a nine-day excursion to
The Congressional Record does not specify where he went in
Second in the number of days traveled was Rep. Christopher Smith, a New Jersey Republican, who was at the time a ranking member of the House Foreign Relations Committee.
Smith, now chairman of that committee, took seven trips over at least 37 days in 2012.
The trip by
Cardoza also did not return calls seeking comment.
Rep. Dan Burton, R-Indiana, announced his retirement in January 2012 after 30 years in Congress. He then traveled to 14 countries during four trips taken from February to September.
One month after he left Congress in January 2013,
In all, 14 members of Congress announced their retirement, resigned or ran for another office in 2012, yet traveled at a cost of at least $230,000 to taxpayers, according to the Congressional Record.
Five members lost their primary elections early in the year, then traveled internationally at taxpayer expense.
One was Pennsylvania Democrat Tim Holden, a member of the Agriculture Committee; he lost his primary election in April, and took four international trips between May and August, hitting 17 countries.
Former Rep. Jason Altmire, then on the Transportation Committee, lost his primary election in April. He took two trips in the summer to seven nations. Altmire said he was visiting military officials near the Horn of Africa, and later meeting with officials in
"It was not a luxury trip," Altmire said.
His other trip was in July — he went to
"After I lost, the trips had already been arranged," said Altmire, who now works in
He said people in competitive districts like his typically traveled to easily justifiable sites. Members not worried about re-election were more likely to take the trips to
Others who traveled after losing primaries: Missouri Democrat Russ Carnahan; Illinois Republican Donald Manzullo; and Ohio Republican Jean Schmidt.
Ocala Republican Cliff Stearns went to
Government watchdog groups say that because of poor recordkeeping, it's hard to know if travel by "lame duck" members is legitimate.
"It's an area that is ripe for abuse," said Bill Allison of the Sunlight Foundation, which aims to bring transparency to Congress and has pushed for greater public disclosure concerning trips.
Some government watchdog groups say they expect members to build expertise by traveling.

Because of the fiscal cliff and sequester battles over the federal budget, North Carolina's Jones said he is pushing his colleagues to better disclose their full travel costs, including those incurred by the Defense and State departments to facilitate House members' travel.
It is "absolutely unconscionable" for members to be traveling abroad to places such as
"We should be doing everything we can to reduce the cost of government," he said.

WATFORD CITY - Konnie and Sharon Norstog don't think they deserve the new income from the minerals they own, so they're giving much of it away.The retired Watford City ranchers say the best part about the oil boom is they can give more to their favorite charities."This is a gift. We did absolutely nothing to earn it. We don't deserve it, particularly," said Sharon, also a retired minister.

Comments about FSA Afterburner 2X10 68/73mm Crankset:
I used this product for six months of serious trail riding in Michigan. I bought them as my first foray into two chainrings at a smaller tooth number. The cranks and chainrings are strong and responsive. However, I've had to replace the BB bearings twice in these six months. I also wanted to drop to a smaller chainring nearer to 36, 37, or 38 teeth - no dice. This is my fault for not checking first if FSA made these. The 386 size seems like a good idea, but you won't find any chainring options. Given the bearing problems, I would not recommend purchasing this crankset.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – A trio of throwers from the Miami University women's track and field team were the only RedHawk representatives on day two of the Jesse Owens Track Classic, hosted by Ohio State University Saturday, as two RedHawks posted top-10 finishes and one posted an all-time top-five mark.
Freshman Amelia Strickler (Bay Village, Ohio) earned sixth in the shot put with a personal-best heave of 14.35m/47-1, which vaults her up to fourth in school history with the best put of any active RedHawk. She topped her previous best by a foot and five inches. Redshirt senior Samantha Gable (Greenfield, Ind.) took eighth in the shot put with a throw of 13.97m/45-10.
In the hammer throw, Gable claimed ninth with a season-best toss of 53.48m/175-5, while sophomore Adaora Anunike (Galena, Ohio) was 18th with a personal-best throw of 49.28m/161-8, as she remains ninth in school history in the event. Anunike threw 20 inches further than her previous best while competing against a field of 39. Strickler, who also had a personal best in the discus Friday, completed a trifecta of personal bests with another in the hammer of 45.98/150-10 to round out Miami's competition at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium.
The RedHawks were throwing against athletes from Mid-American Conference foes Akron, Bowling Green, Kent State and Ohio, as well as local rivals Cincinnati, Dayton and Xavier. Big Ten foes Michigan State and the host Buckeyes were also competing among several other schools, including Division II powers Ashland and Findlay.

Miami will split its squad next weekend as several RedHawks will head to the famed Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa from April 25-27, while the rest of the team will compete in Miami's second and final home meet of the year, the RedHawk Invitational, on Saturday, April 27.

What teenage boy wouldn't want to spend his days surrounded by a pack of beautiful women? Chitose, that's who! He just moved out of the orphanage and back into his deceased parents' house. But instead of lounging around the ultimate bachelor pad, he's dodging discipline from his five new mothers! His high school teachers have adopted him, and the only thing that overshadows their good looks is their near-psychotic maternal zeal.
Just look at what they've got in store for him. When Chitose starts failing his classes, Mutsuki dons a sexy tutor outfit and beats the knowledge into him. Then Yayoi detects a spirit of misfortune inside Chitose's body, and decides to remove it-by force. And of course, there are the contests in which his mothers compete to win Chitose like some kind of grand prize.
How could any young guy hope to survive all this?

The Education of Mrs. Bemis
The Education of Mrs. Bemis (Paperback)
Related Editions
A dead body floating by a pier. An elderly woman curled up on a bed in a department store. A psychiatrist searching for her own identity. These are the pieces of the puzzle that, in John Sedgwick's masterful novel of psychological suspense, begin to come into focus when Madeline Bemis is referred to the treatment of Dr. Alice Matthews at Montrose Psychiatric Hospital.
Mrs. Bemis's treatment gradually peels back the layers of a disturbing past whose shameful secrets and hidden sorrows stem from the war years of the 1940s—and reveals an unexpected link to the floating corpse. Mrs. Bemis's awakening sparks an intimacy between the two women that goes beyond an ordinary doctor/patient relationship—but also makes it clear that Mrs. Bemis's recovery, and perhaps even her safety, depends on quickly coming to terms with her secret history.
About the Author
John Sedgwick is the author of the novels The Dark House and The Education of Mrs. Bemis, and contributes regularly to Newsweek, GQ, and The Atlantic, among other publications. He lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

NAG technical support has, based on overwhelmingly positive feedback from users, earned an enviable reputation for the reliability and timeliness of problem resolution.
What characterises NAG support and makes it so different from the usual?
The NAG team are specialists in numerical and statistical software development, in fact the development team share responsibility for the support of our software. This unusual situation arises because we firmly believe that in order to effectively support complex software the technicians must be both experienced and understand the intricacies of the computational techniques. This conviction is reflected in the composition of the team most of whom are qualified to PhD level and have combined experience of software support in excess of 50 years.
We offer support via a dedicated technical support desk which provides a central point of contact for support queries relating to NAG products and services.
Our support team can be contacted by email or telephone at the locations mentioned below.
What our users say about the Technical Support Service and NAG
Our support services continue to receive regular praise from those who subscribe. Here are a few examples from around the world.
' I had an urgent query and it was addressed quickly and the problem was fully resolved. Fantastic service, thank you.'
The NAG Technical Support Service includes:
- new product updates which are made available on a regular basis primarily to offer users enhanced functionality and performance.
- maintenance releases which are made available as appropriate. These may provide some increased functionality but are mainly distributed to ensure that users are supplied with materials which have been corrected for any errors found and also include the provision of any revised documentation.
- access to our team of domain specialists and developers who have many years of technical experience developing numerical code and are available to offer advice on a wide range of areas including:
- product functionality
- diagnosis of user problems
- provision of temporary fixes or workarounds to assist users ahead of standard updates
- product availability for specific operating systems/compilers
- advice on the best NAG functionality for your application needs
- product installation
- wide range of documentation and technical reports
- provision of appropriate replacement licences should you need to replace/transfer your NAG product to another platform of the same type.
Each request for support is logged with a unique reference number to help track each query until completion. Each enquiry is acknowledged and passed on to an expert in that area who will fully investigate the problem and provide, wherever possible, a speedy response to the issue. In some instances, due to the nature of some enquiries, it is not possible to provide a definitive response in the short term, so any outstanding enquiries are regularly reviewed to ensure that you get the support you require.
We regularly analyse support enquiries to better understand how we can improve and develop our products and services.

WINGATE, N.C. - For the fourth and fifth times in the last six road games, Pfeiffer University softball fell victim to walk-offs in the bottom of the seventh as Wingate University claimed a 1-0 and 3-2 sweep on Thursday afternoon. The Bulldogs move to 14-6 on the year while the Lady Falcons drop to 3-11.
In the opener, Pfeiffer out-hit Wingate 7-2 but couldn't muster a run. The Bulldogs lone run came quickly in the seventh as a leadoff single, bunt and throwing error trying to get the force at second ending up in the outfield and a 1-0 win for Wingate. The Lady Falcons had bases-loaded one out in the first and bases-loaded nobody out in the fourth and couldn't score in either situation.
In game two, a one-out triple and following single led to Wingate breaking the 2-2 tie for a 3-2 victory. A sacrifice-fly by Mikaela Strickland put the Falcons on the board in the first while the Bulldogs used an RBI-single. An Ashlee Ellen RBI-double in the third put Pfeiffer up 2-1 before the Bulldogs squared in the fifth.Ā
Pfeiffer gets back to action on Sunday playing Mars Hill at 1:00 p.m. in a neutral site contest at North Davidson High School in Lexington.

We checked in at about 6pm. Handed the clerk mt sandwiched $20 and ask of there were any upgrades available. She left the counter for a moment but came back and offered the mini suite. We took it immediately considering we were already taking advantage of comped stay!
I checked in around 6pm on a Monday, and there was a huge line. It took almost an hour to get to the front counter but when I did I was helped my a guy in his late 20's. I decided to be extra nice to him just so he would be more likely to upgrade me. We chit chatted while he looked up my reservation and then when he asked for my licence and credit card I put 2, 10$ Bills in between and he saw me do it and said " ah the old sand which trick" and laughed and then went typing away and before I knew it he asked if I had ever stayed in a go room before and I hadn't so he upgraded me to that room. It was a lot nicer than the basic room and I was pleased with the upgrade.
Checked in around 1pm easter sunday chatted with the younger girl explained to her that we were just here last november and got an upgrade to a go room with a view of Bellagio fountains and asked her if she can do the same but a view of the strip .The rooms were comped for 4 nites layed out the 20 dollar bill and it worked again.Thats 7 out of 7 on my upgrades thanks frontdesktip
We were unable to target any specific clerk. Our flight was 3 hours late, so we arrived at 9.30pm on a Thursday night. The Flamingo was exceptionally busy due to the Rodeo Finals but the woman gratefully noticed our $50 note as we enquired if there were any complementary upgrades available and quickly upgraded us to a 26th floor Strip view Go room directly opposite Caesars Palace and we were also able to view the Bellagio fountains nightly! We gave $50 as we were staying 2 weeks. Go rooms are far superior to Fab and have a fridge, CD/DVD player, largescreen TV and even buttons to open and close your net curtains and drapes! Go on, ask for an upgrade, provide a sandwich, they can only say no, but we have never failed yet!
Arrived at check in around 11 Am. No line at all. Had the $20.00 sandwich ready & asked the clerk if there were any upgrades available. Possibly a room with a view of The Bellagio fountain. To my surprise we received a Go Room on the 17th floor looking straight at them. Who says you can't upgrade to a Go Room? It happens! Still batting 6 out of 6 on upgrades .Thanks frontdesktips.com
Didn't target clerk but used the Total Rewards Gold Card line (which is the entry level for TR so all you need to do is sign up for a TR card). It was a Friday right about noon. There was a small wait for the regular check-in line, and no wait in the TR Gold line. I handed her the sandwich with a $20 inside, and before I could even ask the money was gone, she smiled at me, and started typing away. Bad news is that it was Halloween and Jimmy Buffett weekend so all GO rooms, and GO suites, were booked, but she did upgrade us to the executive floor (28) and we got a front strip view, so facing Caesars but we could also see Belagio fountains and north up the strip. Was hoping for a GO room, but got a great price for the 3 nights we were there so the extra $20 was worth it. What was best was she was on board from the second she saw the tip and was really trying to help us. She did order us a small fridge to be brought into the room for free which was nice for beer and left-over breakfast.
We checked in early 10:00 am on a Sunday line was fairly busy so we did not get much choice who checked us in,the employee was in her early twenties and very friendly so I gave her the $20 sandwich and asked if they had any complimentary room upgrades and she immediately started to type and told us we can give you a room on the 27th floor with a view of the strip, great view but the room had seen better day's but considering we had 5 nights comped the$20 dollars was worth it.
Couldn't really "target" a front desk clerk. Was called forward by a man who had a pin with a hand on it. When asked he said it was given to him for his customer service (as in an applause hand). Gave him the sandwich, with my ID and cc. Told him I booked a Fab room but would like an Go room, if possible. After typing a while, he said he needed to check with his supervisor. He went into the back room for quite a while. Came back and just kept typing. He told me that his supervisor approved the request. Room was spectacular! 19th floor, close (but not too close) to the elevator, amazing view of the Bellagio fountains and the south Strip, fridge, tv in bathroom mirror. 42" flatscreen. Perfect in every way.
I have used the sandwich trick in the past and always got a minor upgrade. This time I waited in line and didn't target anyone. The a couple clerks opened up at the same time and the person in front of me grabed one of em. Then a guest from a differnt line started throwing a fit cuz they felt they were next in line from the rewards short line. Well she fussed and stormed off. I got the lady that was trying to help her. We laughed at the situation. I handed her my sandwich with a 20 as a tip and asked politely if there were any complimentry upgrades available as my buddy and I were in town for his bachelor party. bingo. went from a deluxe room to a mini-suite on the 12th floor overlooking the pools and gardens!
I didn't target any certain clerk. It was about 7pm on a Saturday night. And all we did to get upgraded was slip them a $50 (because we had 2 rooms and there was 4 of us) "is there any chance we could get a 2 bedroom suite?" And it seemed like we weren't going to and that we were only going to get conjoining rooms with a possible strip view and when she told us that we were on the top floor we started to get excited. We got to the room and opened the first set of doors because we got 2 sets of key cards so that is also why we thought we just got regular rooms. Well when we opened the door to the connected room, it wasn't another bedroom. It was the livingroom/dining/wet bar, with an extra bathroom! Then another bedroom was connected at the other side! It was so awesome, we met some people on the plane that we planned to party with so our room ended up being the pre-gaming spot! It was so worth the extra money for 4 awesome nights! Cheap room price for the best view in Las Vegas!
We couldn't target, it was too busy. Were nervous because we got an older woman but she was super nice, got us the 19th floor with an amazing view. A newly upgraded room as well "Fav" I believe was the term of the room.
I found out about the sandwich technique two days before my trip to Vegas and decided to try it out. I discussed it with my mother, and she was down as well. We arrived at the Flamingo around 1130am and only had to wait about 20 minutes in line. We weren't able to pick our clerk, however, ended up with a 60+ lady who seemed like she was in a good mood. I had the sandwich ready in my hand when we approached, and my mom warmed her up with a big smile and saying that we were celebrating her 50th birthday (which was true). She asked for the ID and credit card, and my mom handed over the sandwich, smiled, and asked if she had any "complimentary room upgrades." A bit surprised, the clerk took the sandwich and said those magic words, "let me see what I can do." After a few seconds, she lowered her tone and said "Alright, I've got you in one of our newly remodeled rooms with a view of the strip." JACKPOT! The rest is history, and we enjoyed a nice strip view from the 16th floor in a NEWLY (and I stress NEWLY...the mattresses were manufactured this month!) remodeled room at the Flamingo! Thanks FrontDeskTip!
Checked in around 5pm on friday night, waited only about 10 min in line. We were in the diamond club check in line, so there was only one clerk working our current line. We slipped the 20 between DL and CC, and asked if there was any upgrades availible for the weekend, mentioning it was my friends birthday. She asked if we would like a mini suite, said yes and checked us in. she was very friendly, and seemed glad to give us the upgrade.
My Fiance and I scored a really good hotel rate at the Flamingo. They had a $28/night special with a $45 special for 24hrs of "Buffet of Buffets" (which I would recommend if you're on a budget, you get to choose from up to 9 different casinos to eat from). Anyway, we arrived at 8:00pm and there was a lengthy line to check in, so we couldn't choose which clerk to go to. I was worried that the $20 Sandwich wouldn't work with such a huge line of people that was in front of us. As we arrived to the front desk, I presented the Sandwich and asked for any complimentary room up grades. The clerk saw the money and gasped a little, as if it was the first time she got tipped. She made a phone call, but couldn't get through, so she then started typing on the computer and upgraded us to a suite on the 16th floor with a view of the strip over looking the fountains at the Bellagio!. I think she wanted to get us something better, but hey, any upgrade was ok with me. AND my Fiance thought I was a big pimpin' hero!! Good luck!!
Slipped the elderly clerk a $20 with my credit card and asked if any complimentary upgrades were available. He punched some keys on his keyboard and then offered me a view of the strip. I don't consider it an upgrade, but I suppose it's better than nothing. He was polite and seemed eager to help.
I couldn't really target the clerk; the check-in line was a mile long at around 10a on a Friday, and the next available clerk was calling the next person in line.
It was my first time trying the $20 sandwich trick. I went up to the bell hop and told him that I was in town for a bachelor's party. He asked for my information and I put the money in between the ID card and my driver's license.
It worked. Got upgraded to a luxury but didn't get a room with a view. We were just happy to get a free upgrade.
I checked in on Saturday around 4 p.m. There was a line so I took the first available clerk. She was a nice lady and we had a good time chatting about all sorts of things. I folded up $20, but placed it on top of my license and credit card and put them all on the counter. She took the license and credit card, but left the money.
She said the hotel was pretty booked and said she couldn't upgrade me to a GO room, which I had already figured wasn't an option (especially after reading this site). I asked about the executive rooms. She said she had 2 available and called her manager. The manager said he'd rather charge the extra rate for them, since the hotel was so full.
So, the best she could get me was on the 7th floor. Yuck! I keep chatting with her and I could tell her mind was thinking about the upgrade. This time she walked to the back room and talked to the manager personally. I guess she convinced him, because I got upgraded to an executive room on the top (28th) floor.
The top two floors stick out about 6 feet from the other rooms, so they're longer. The room included a coffee maker and small fridge, both of which came in very handy. The room also included a couch, instead of the standard chair.
Even though I struck out at first, just being nice and chatting with the clerk allowed me to get an upgrade. I handed her the $20 and thanked her for her customer service.
Checking in w/5nights comp.classic rooms clerk was young but a pro with the 20dollar trick.Room was on the 28th floor looking right at Caesars-palace/"target="_blank">Ceasers.Since doing the trick in the last 4 years i am batting 5 out of 5 thanks Front Desk Tip.ps i talk about this website anytime people going to vegas will listen.
We arrived at the Flamingo around noon to a good size line that was being managed rather well.Twenty minutes later we were at check-in, and although I had been scoping out a cheerful young woman at the counter ,the volume of people dictated that we get whoever became open next ! As it was,we ended up with an older woman who at first appeared all business,but with some lite banter showed a sweet side.I passed her the $20 sandwich with ID etc. and she calmly put the money aside as I asked the obligatory"Are their any complimentry upgrades available?" She at first didn't respond, but was rapidly typing away and checking things.We had originally booked the room for 3 days (all free, from a Total Rewards offer we had received in the mail) so I was skeptical that an upgrade would happen,with the room already being comped.Well, it is Vegas and money does talk (at least in this case) so our 5th floor basic room became a 21st floor suite!!! She also offered to upgrade us to a GO room (for extra cash)which we declined,based on reviews we'd formerly read on this, and other sites.The room was quite a bit larger than our original choice on the 5th floor,and was facing Caesars Palace and the strip,which the original wasn't.The room was fine-we don't require to many amenities,as we go to Vegas to gamble,see shows and eat things .The CARPET was as bad as every review we had previously read had stated,bad stains,peeling up in places and generally trashed.But,once again,I wasn't staying at the Flamingo for the decor.The location was excellant and easy to navigate around.All this,and the SUITE deal,for a $20 sandwich!! Wahoo!!
My girlfriends and I arrived at around 2pm and was helped by a man around his 30s. I was a little nervous about executing the $20 tip trick, especially since he said that he did not need to see my credit card again (because that would charge me twice). So in actuality, I didn\'t sandwich the $20, I just hid it underneath my ID.
As the $20 dropped on the desk, I said, \"I\'m actually planning my girlfriend\'s bachelorette party and was wondering if there were any complimentary upgrades available...\" He responds back with, \"Let me see what I can do.\" and starts typing away. He says there is a mini suite available. He hands me my keycards and tells me to enjoy my stay. It\'s much bigger than our original room and even had its own sitting area. The bathroom was bigger too!
For an extra $5/night, I think it was a good deal. :)

David Gill, who runs the multi -award winning South Lakes Wild Animal Park, at Dalton-in-Furness, has accused Barrow Borough Council of 'stifling' entrepreneurial spirit in the Furness area.
He believes his project would – * create 45 new jobs * bring elephants and 'big cats' such as jaguars to the park for the first time * improve housing for existing animals * add a children's farm * revamp visitor facilities, including a large car park and a new steam train to take visitors around the park Mr Gill is frustrated that the council has not ruled on his planning application after a year – although it is minded to reject it.
Now he has asked the Government's planning inspectorate to intervene and make a decision.
The borough council's planning committee believes the project would be an over-development of a greenfield site and cause traffic problems for residents of Melton Terrace, off the A590, where the new entrance would be located.
And it says that part of the reason it has taken so long to resolve the matter is because some of the application details were not clear enough.
Mr Gill, 50, who set up the park 17 years ago, said: "I have lived here all my life and these councillors are the most backward-looking people you could come across.
"How a positive project, which would create jobs and bring more people to the area in such desperate economic times as these, could be refused beggars belief."
He added: "At the moment we have four different car parks and up to 4,000 people a day trying to cross a busy 60mph road to get to the park. With our new plans we could have them all on one piece of land."
And he warned that the zoo, which is one of Cumbria's top five visitor attractions, would stagnate if it did not grow.
"In this day and age, if you don't go forwards you are going backwards."
The zoo is already home to a variety of animals, including giraffes, rhinos, lions and lemurs and runs two animal conservation charities which aim to protect vulnerable species such as Sumatran tigers.
Mr Gill's plan has been backed by Cumbria Tourism managing director Ian Stephens, who said: ''The park provides one of many good reasons for visiting the Furness peninsula and has brought important benefits into the area in terms of employment, and tourist expenditure.
"The expansion plans are to be encouraged and have a close fit with the tourism strategy for Cumbria. We're sure that most people will be in favour of bringing increased employment and income to the area and as such we hope that the planning issues can be overcome".
John Millar, chairman of Dalton with Newton Parish Council, which opposed the plans, said councillors were not against expansion or creating jobs but were worried about access.
"We are concerned about traffic flow and the impact this could have on the surrounding rural area," he said Coun Ann Thomson, chairman of Barrow's planning committee told the Gazette: "We are not in the business of stifling entrepreneurialism – we wouldn't dream of doing that."
She said members had particular concerns that the car park would 'stand out like a sore thumb' on the hillside and it was still unclear how it would be masked by landscaping.
Barrow and Furness MP John Woodcock said: "Safety should never be compromised, but I hope these concerns can be resolved to everyone's satisfaction.
"The wildlife park is one of this area's big-pull attractions with lots of potential to expand and create more jobs in the years ahead."
The final decision will be made by secretary of state for local government and communities Eric Pickles following advice from the planning inspectorate.
A ruling is likely to be made next spring.
ZANY Steven Hall is urging people to vote for him after he performs in front of millions of TV viewers on Britain's Got Talent tonight.
The 53-year-old telecommunications engineer will represent Cumbria when he takes to the stage for the live semi-final with a new dance routine.
Having taken the nation by storm with his eclectic two-minute act, which saw him perform a dance to The Birdy Song, The Macarena and The Twist, he has become an overnight success.
He has gained more than 1.5 million views on YouTube and more than a thousand fans on his official Facebook site.
So, what has he got lined up for the biggest performances of his life tonight?
"It was said: 'How am I going to follow that?' Because the element of surprise has gone," he said.
"So I have taken what everybody said they would expect me to do next and not done it."
Life has changed for the Burneside Amateur Theatrical Society member since he gained three 'yes' votes from Amanda Holden, Michael McIntyre and David Hasselhoff, and a standing ovation from the Liverpool crowd.
"It was the second best experience of my life, but I can't tell you the first one," he jokes.
"Since then, it has been so busy I haven't had time to think about it.
"I have been to London several times for interviews and rehearsals."
Having performed in theatres across the Lake District, Steven set up Comedy Showtime two years ago, a five-person act that puts on performances across the region.
From this, a 10-minute dance evolved which came to form the basis of his BGT audition.
If Steven is successful tonight, he will make it through to Saturday's live final.
If victorious in the final, he will perform in front of The Queen at The Royal Variety Performance and win £100,000.
"I am nervous and confident about tonight," he said.
"Nervous because Simon Cowell is back on the show and he is held in such anticipation about what he has thought of the acts that have gone through while he's been away.
"But I am confident of my routine. I'm looking forward to it."

Continuum Aquatics Reef-Basis Captiv Phos Fe Granular Ferric Oxide GFO Phosphate Adsorber
Product Manuals & Documentation
Captiv•Phos Fe
Description: Ferric Phosphate & Silicate Removal Media
• Highly activated ferric oxide phosphate removal medium
• Particularly selected for use in marine systems and soft FW systems
• Will not leach phosphates back into the aquarium
Reef•Basis - Captiv•Phos Fe is a supreme quality, granular ferric oxide based filtration medium particularly selected for sensitive aquarium environments. It is designed to remove free phosphates and silicates that can act as a fertilizer for unwanted algae or diatoms, directly from the water and will also remove phosphate bearing dissolved organics. It will not kill algae and does not contain any algaecides. It is safe for all marine and freshwater life.
Use in Aquarium Keeping:
Phosphates enter the aquarium primarily through tap water additions for evaporation or water changes, food addition, particularly brine shrimp, some other frozen foods and use of inexpensive carbon. Silicates enter the aquarium primarily through tap water (natural water contains silicates and water companies add sodium silicate to control equipment corrosion), poor salt mixes, and also improperly filtered additives made from tap water. Phosphates and silicates should be first controlled by the use of water made by reverse osmosis or deionization, limiting phosphate bearing foods and use of a good grade of aquarium carbon from a company you trust. Reef•Basis - Captiv•Phos Fe should then be employed to reduce the phosphates that remain, to a level of .04 mg/l (ppm) or less.
Rinse well in cold filtered freshwater, preferably RO or distilled water, but tap water may be used. Discard rinse water. Place loosely in a polyester filter bag or filter chamber and position to gently flow water through the medium or use in a fluidized bed filter. For best results, use a particulate prefilter ahead of the Reef•Basis - Captiv•Phos Fe, such as filter floss or fine sponge. Use about 1 gram per gallon of aquarium capacity, or about 1/3 cupful per 100 US gallons (400 L).
Keep out of reach of children. Not for human consumption. Contains proprietary activated ferric oxide, if ingested drink water. If in eyes flush with water.

This is not a serious post. I just wanted to test the Disqus 2012 and see how it works.
The most interesting feature is the real time updating, so there's no need to refresh the page to see new comments. On the other hand, the avatars are very small and there's no option to make them bigger.
Do comment on it, is it better than the old Disqus? Do you love it or hate it?
[I've changed it back to the old Disqus because the new version is really irritating.]

The recent wave of freezing temperatures was likely the cause of Tuesday's power outage on the eastern side of New Albany, officials with New Albany Light, Gas & Water said Wednesday.
According to LG&W's Chief Operations Supervisor Charlie Hall, the failure of an insulator at the city's substation off of HWY 348 was the cause.
"The insulator failed and caused the other insulators to fail," Hall said. "Evidently it had a crack crack in it, which led to the failure. The crack was likely caused by the extreme cold weather."
According to Hall, the repairs to the substation, including the replacement of the failed insulator took about two and a half hours to complete.
"The power went out about 3:30 p.m. and we finished repairs around 4 p.m.," Hall said.
LG&W Department Manager Harold Smith said that the eastern side of New Albany, up to Keownville on HWY 30 E, including HWY 15, were affected by the outage.
"The western side of town, near Wal Mart and the hospital, were not affected," Smith said.
Despite the outage, voting on the legalization of the sale of beer in the city limits continued with little interruption as well.
The electronic voting machine's backup battery supply allowed voters to continue casting their ballots, while poll workers were able to use flashlights to verify voter's names in the rolls.
Power was restored around much of the city between 4:30 and 5 p.m., though the city crews continued to work at the substation until 6 p.m.

The Blitzboks beat Uruguay and Wales in their first two matches on day one of the Las Vegas Sevens.
In their 29-12 win over Wales, the Springbok Sevens found themselves behind early in the game as Lee Williams scored a try. However, skipper Kyle Brown and IRB Sevens Player of the Year Cecil Afrika gave South Africa a 12-7 half-time advantage with scores before the break.
Afrika starred in the second half, completing his hat-trick while Frankie Horne also dived over to seal the win. Rhys Sellard grabbed Wales' second try three minutes after the restart.
Earlier in the day, the Springbok Sevens thrashed Uruguay 35-0.
It was an easy outing for Paul Treu's charges as they cruised to victory with five tries. Afrika grabbed a brace while Cornal Hendricks, Horne and Bernado Botha finished off the one-sided contest.
South Africa and France will face off in the Pool C decider later tonight.
Blitzboks' fixtures:
