OPM filling holes left by retirement system failure
The agency is facing a backlog of 43,000 claims by retired feds to start getting their pensions. The delay is in part because of the collapse of a major part of the Retirement Systems Modernization program. OPM has reduced the time it takes to process claims by 15 percent over the last six months.

Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
I'm upgrading my PC after a long while, and I need a fast desktop for video editing and gaming.
I want a high end desktop since it be used for video editing, gaming, and may also be used as a home theatre system to a 42" TV.
I was thinking of something like this, and it's within my price range:
CPU Intel Core i7 950 Quad Core 3.06GHz 8M 4.80 GT/s 130W LGA1366
CPU Cooling Cooler Master HYPER 212 PLUS (LGA1156/1136/775/AM3)
Motherboard MSI X58-M Intel X58 MATX 6 DDR3 1600 SATA FSB 6.4GT/S Audio 1394 GB Lan
Memory Kingston 1333 DDR3 (3x1GB) (KVR1333D3N9K3/3G)
Hard Drive Seagate 1TB (1000GB) SATA 3GB 7200RPM,32MB Cache
Optical Drive LG GH24LS50 SATA 24X DVD-RW DRIVE, LIGHTSCRIBE, BLACK, INTERNAL, Retail
Video Card Gigabyte Video Card GV-N450-1GI
Network Adapter Onboard Network Adapter
Power Supply Quality Quiet 550 Watt ATX Power Supply w/Large Fan
Case Coolermaster Storm Scout (Black)
Core i7 950 should be fast enough for what I'm doing I take it? I'm open to suggestions though.
I'm undecided on the video card. I'd like it to be a high end one, since I'll be using a multi monitor setup, and playing games. I wouldn't mind spending a little more for a better graphics card, but not in the $500 range. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
If you're serious with the video editing, you're going to need MUCH more than 3GB of ram. At least 6.
If you're knowledgeable enough with PC's and think you can build one yourself, I'd recommend that. Getting separate pieces, and building it at your house.
If you're going to build it, I'd recommend Sandy Bridge, (2500K) with a nice mobo. And with 6 GB of RAM. And a decent video card, maybe a 560 TI. That's what my friend got about a month ago, and from what he says its amazing.
Check out newegg.ca (Although the prices from what I've seen are higher in canada than in the US.)
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
Ok somebody recommended this to me:
Intel Core i5 2500K ($219.99)
SAPPHIRE 100314-2SR Radeon HD 6870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 ($199.99)
G.Skill Ripjaws 4 x 2 GB DDR3-1600 @ CL8 F3-12800CL8Q-8GBRM ($113.99)
COOLER MASTER RC-692-KKN2 CM690 II Advanced Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case ($99.99)
CORSAIR Builder Series CX600 ($79.99)
SAMSUNG SpinPoint F3 1 TB 7200 RPM ($74.99)
LG GH24NS70 DVD Writer ($18.99)
Subtotal: $997.92
I really like that setup, but i'm not sure about the 6870 though. I have a 22" crt that I insist on using with this machine, but it connects via vga. I'd also like to connect a flat panel LCD 22 or 23". But I'm not sure, the 6870 has two DVI outputs it seems, and 1 hdmi.
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
That's pretty much perfect. The video card should come with an adapter from DVI to VGA, if not you can pick one up for like a cup of coffee.
Check out the 560 ti, or the 6950, if you don't like that one. All three are pretty good.
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
I wouldn't get an ATi card for video editing. If anything, OpenGL is used as a rendering engine so that's about it. But if a program is using CUDA, which is more common than ATi's API (Stream), then you're screwed. I got my 5770 for video editing a long time ago since OpenGL is what we use. But after a while, I needed to use other programs that used CUDA and I was pretty screwed.
But as of now, I have yet to see anything that actually utilizes Stream. There is NOTHING out there that uses it that I've come across for usage in day-to-day editing.
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
Out of those two, I personally would. So far my experience has been... varied... Both have pro's and cons, but it's really hard to say without knowing what it is exactly you'd be using it for other than gaming. I know you said video editing, but some of the more professional/costly programs out there take advantage of hardware and drivers as well.
My friend was building a PC and asked pretty much the same question. I told him that he'd probably have less issues with a NVIDIA card. He's not too PC savvy, so it was perfect for him. He doesn't have to fumble around with more than one installed program to get something to work. Or wait for an application to be supported via driver update. Long story short, he had to wait on numerous occasions for me to get my drivers sorted when we decided to play something together. It's always give and take with their drivers for me. Something works, but another thing is broken.
Even though ATi's offerings are plenty fast, it's sort of stagnant right now since the 6xxx series video cards are still fairly new, iirc. The drivers really haven't been ironed out as well as they should, imo. They feel really "amateurish" for some reason. They're constantly moving and changing things around at the driver level right at the release of their new videocards and it's kind of irritating.
Right now, there's this super-annoying bug where the mouse get's "laggy" in the upper right corner of the desktop/screen. For those that play RTS games and/or use that corner of the screen to navigate on the map, or even if you go up there to close a window that's maximized, you get snagged. It's irritating to say the least. I didn't even mention the 100% desktop idle bug, either. Or the pink-hued screen some people are still having. I have personally experienced all of these (still experiencing the mouse lag issue right now).
But as I mentioned, it varies. Some people have it, and some people don't. It's really weird.
When I had my NVIDIA card, I would just install and play. With ATi, I have to wait for a driver or CAPs (Catalyst Application Profiles) update which is a pain. I want to play NOW, not next month (if I'm lucky). It's a matter of patience as well. I honestly don't see why I have to roll-back drivers, disable mouse shadows or wait a whole month for the next driver set to fix a CURRENT bug in the drivers. I never understood that. They seriously need to get it together. They've released hotfix drivers, but it's getting really old, very fast for me. I spend more time messing with drivers and what not instead of being productive.
In the end, the only thing I like about ATi right now is the wattage consumption and how quiet they are. They also idle very, very cool. My 5770 is sitting at 27c right now. When my sister's boyfriend brought his PC over, I could hear the damn GTX 580 fan in the next room. Sounded like a freakin' minivac, LOL. :D If I had to use that for video editing or playing games, it would be pretty damn distracting to me. The 560 Ti should be fine though. :)
ATi's EyeFinity is nice... when it works. I remember I had to give it up since their only solution was to raise the idle clocks to keep the second monitor from flickering. Seriously. What was the freaking point of that? Their display overlay is broken right now as well.
I know it sound like I'm ripping on ATi right now, but my experience with them has been a big unnecessary headache. I would gladly take a NVIDIA card right now, but I just don't have the money. It was very cost-effective to go with the faster and cheaper card for the price range at the time, but in hindsight I should have waited. :p
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
cuda is way more popular when it comes to video editing, u can see a lot of compression programs have the cuda check box to use...i personally don't have any experience with it..it might be alot faster...but i noticed ure going for the z68 series mobo...don't those have some special intel thing to help with video compression?
when it comes to gaming..i think both ati and nvidia are trading off small blows here and there...ati tends to be a bit cheaper, but nvidia does have phyx/cuda and none of ati features have eva really taken off....i mean eva...
there is not a single game out there that really takes ati's features to the next level....but do remember phyx comes at a performance cost...but most games from the ut3 engine run blazing fast..if it runs like ****...then its not ure card..its the dev.
i went with ati because for price/perfermance it was good, along with the heat and mine came with a sapphire customer cooler and o/c and it was still cheaper to its counterpart from nvidia with stock...and nvidia stock coolers are...god...just dont buy it stock. lol.
also with memory...go with the max u can support...memory timing is pointless...and the more you have the better it is..and belive me i did some ae editing...having that 8gb of ram vs 4gb...wow massssssssssssssive difference...the more the better!...get a quality brand...but stick to the standards...none of this o/c bull****...and don't be premium for amazing timing ones...totally and utterly useless...other than benchmarks at 640x480...
to the guy above me complaining about CAP drivers...i think ure just pulling pointless garbage...most of these games nvidia have their amazing logo stuck to it...ati doesn't even get a chance to play with the game/optimze the drivers...and the ati drivers have been top notch for me...yea they have some minor issues...but so does nvidia...i've been out of the nvidia bus for awhile now...but they release drivers left and right...and it was just quality over quantity.....i do how eva agree that ati drivers need to step up because the hardware it self is quality and the drivers are letting them down...but for me...personally i have not had much issues with the drivers...i just wish there was ATi logo in games instead of nvidia and more ati features....maybe next dx can help unify the features...
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
For video compression, forget CUDA and go with intel conversion engine inside the new core processor (definitly present in the i5 2500K). The Z68 should let you use it while using an external vid-card too.
It's both faster and better quality.
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
When ATi gets the drivers right, they're fine. It's not about what company sleeps with the developers to ensure their hardware works with an application. It's the overall compatibility. Big difference there. ;)
You can sit there and not have to update NVIDIA drivers for ages and be contempt. New application or game comes out and you'll most likely not have to worry about it. With ATi, you're waiting for the compatibility. They have awesome hardware and image quality, but its the drivers that are holding them back.
What's broken in one driver set gets resolved in the next release, only to come back in the release after that again. Then that bug gets put on the back burner for ages. That's what pisses me off. I couldn't keep track of how many times OpenGL was broken in CS5 since the 10.4 driver release until now. At least on my NVIDIA rig (that's MUCH slower and used part of a render farm), has been doing just fine for 6+ months now without a driver incompatibility. I don't have half the issues most people report, but when I do get them, it really, really takes a lot of patience to mess with a fix.
I know Terry Makedon stepped down from the Catalyst role back in December, and Andrew has replaced him. He's doing a great job, but they really need to work on their drivers. It's really disheartening when they can't stay consistent. But, they're releasing yet another hotfix driver (11.5 RC3) for single GPUs and performance issues with Brink, tomorrow. I don't play it, but that's awesome. They're getting there slowly but surely. :)
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
If you have quality videos I don't know of a program that will utilize CUDA. You'd want to encode to x.264 so it's going to be dependent on the processor. A Sandy Bridge 2600K would be a better buy IMO since it has higher clock speeds. That would mean a different board and memory setup though.
Have an ATI card here. No real reason to complain about the drivers. Install them and forget about it. I don't feel the need to update them every month so that could be why they work better than if you constantly were switching them out. Would agree that there might be issues with certain releases, so the best thing to do is just figure out which releases were solid and stick with that.
Re: Recommendation for Video editing/Gaming PC
thanks for the response guys.
I'm pretty new to video editing so I'll be doing only basic stuff, but I'll be using some HD sources and I'd definitely like the ability to output nice HD videos.
I have a 22" CRT that goes really high on the res, and I'll be getting another screen - an LCD flatpanel to have a dual monitor setup.
As for gaming I'll be playing quite a lot if I find the time, so I'd like to have a decent card.

Nearly all of the Buckeye Valley Local School District's third-grade students met the minimum score needed on the state's reading test to move on to fourth grade.
According to the Ohio Department of Education, 137 of the 147 third-graders to take the test – or 93.2 percent – received a passing grade.
"I was pleased overall with the results for our district," said Superintendent Andy Miller. "We had a pretty substantial increase over our scores last year."
Miller attributed the success to more collaboration among teachers, better analysis of data and the work of the district's reading intervention specialists.
"They do a really nice job and our classroom teachers do a nice job with the whole group," he said.
The third-grade reading guarantee, implemented through an act of the Ohio Legislature in 2012, prevents students who do not meet the minimum score on the test from advancing to the fourth grade.
However, of the 10 students who did not meet the minimum requirement, eight were exempted due to special circumstances.
The two third-graders that did not pass the test still have an opportunity to meet the standard prior to the start of the 2014-15 school year.
"Will have an opportunity for remediation," Miller said. "We're hopeful by the end of the summer we may not have anybody impacted by that."
Tom Kaelber, who serves as president of the school board and was a longtime elementary teacher in the district, said he fully supports the third-grade reading guarantee.
"Kids need to become good readers at an early age, otherwise they struggle for the rest of their career," he said. "Reading is so important in every subject, even math."
Across the state, 88.5 percent of third-grade students met the minimum standard.
In Delaware County, Olentangy students performed the best, with 98.1 percent of the students receiving a passing grade. Big Walnut students passed the test a 94.1 percent clip, and 92.7 percent of Delaware City Schools students met the minimum requirements.

Chelsea boss rules out move for Torres in January
Carlo Ancelotti has ruled out buying any new Chelsea players in the January transfer window unless forced to do so through injuries.
The Italian coach, preparing his side for their Champions League, Group F, clash with Spartak Moscow at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night, insists that his current squad is good enough to see the Blues through to the end of the season.
Chelsea have been linked with a host of big name players already this season but Ancelotti moved swiftly to dampen any talk of new additions in January - including Liverpool's out of form striker Fernando Torres.
"I always said that Torres is not our aim for the future because we have trust in a lot of young players," said Ancelotti.
"We also have fantastic strikers in Didier Drogba, Nicolas Anelka and Salomon Kalou. We also have fantastic young players like Daniel Sturridge and Gael Kakuta.
"So, in this moment, we don't really need to have a striker, a fantastic striker, like Fernando Torres.
"We can be competitive in all competitions with this squad. The most important thing is to avoid injury, when possible.
"We have to maintain the squad with all the players fit. This is the most difficult thing to do, but we're trying and working hard to do this, to control the recovery of the players.
"I want to be sure that the players who will be involved in the game tomorrow will be fresh. If everyone stays fit we won't need anyone else. I think we have a fantastic squad."

Here is a place to brag about how far you've run or what other workouts you have done to stay in shape this pregnancy, when other people think you are crazy for doing it while getting inspiration and answer questions from other pregnant mamas. Make sure and tell us how far along you are.
Pregnant Running Mamas Brag post - Week of 9/17
So, I'm 39 w 2 d and got in just about 6 miles running and 2 miles walking last week plus a spin class. Saturday was likely my last pregnant runnign day (sadly) because I injured my foot!!! Of all things! I was so bummed and complaining to my husband who rolled his eyes and said "You're 39 weeks pregnant. You've done enough" "But I want to run on the day I deliver!!" So, I did the elliptical this morning instead and it felt okay but I am a little worried about my foot. And don't want to have a crazy bunk foot that I can't walk on when I go into labor. But, my inability to sleep means that I'm going to the gym in the morning :)
Congratualtions to all of our late runners who had babies last week. I know there are two of us due this week, and KC is close (37 this week?) but I don't feel impending doom. In light of that, if you want to keep up the post someone may need to take over next week :)
Hookem-Our husbands sound similar ;). I complained of my back pain and his response "you.are.pregnant." I kinda think he's just waiitng for me to hang up the running shoes---hopefully that's not going to happen! So sorry to hear bout your foot :( you made it so far!
17 weeks....I had a good week about 8 miles mid week, bootcamp, cross and strength trained...then I tried an easy 3 on Saturday and suddenly the back pain was so bad I could barely walk after the run! I blame boot camp--we used some really heavy weights. I think I'll stop or modify bootcamp because I do not want to stop running! I skipped my long run on Sunday in the hopes that this sciatica pain goes away!
9 weeks!
I had a decent week last week and got about 10 miles in. I was going to do a long run this weekend, but I was out of town for a wedding and the consecutive late nights got to me. So.... a week away from my 1/2 and I'm not sure if I'm prepared enough or not. Debating bagging it. But at the same time, I KNOW I could finish it - even if it takes me 3 hours. Ugh.
- Michelle - Proud mommy to Eilidh, born 11-20-09
Hookem--sorry to hear about your foot! I know you still want to run but at least doing the elliptical is better than nothing at all. Rest that injury so you don't have to hobble along when your baby arrives...any day now, right?!?
You & I may be the lonely 2 from our group that has been posting for quite some time now! Unless my baby decides to turn & show up early, I definitely have 2 more weeks. She's still breech, looking like she'll stay that way, so we have a c section scheduled for October 1st, which I'm totally fine with.
In the meanwhile, I ran 11 and walked 4.5 last week. I'm motivated to get in as many miles as I can since I know I'll be committed to a little more rest after the c section.
Hope everyone has a great week!
Hookem, keep us posted should you have any news :)
It is just us from the original 5 or 6 that were travelling in a pack :) Ultramom is 39 weeks though, I think due either same day as me or the 18th, though it may have been Megan that was due the 18th. I'll definitely keep you posted. It is *technically* any day but we tend to go late in my family. I was 40w1d with my first, so I'm semi-expecting something similar with this one.
Michelle, I'm sure you are fine. Don't worry about these last couple of weeks, it's not like you get a lot of fitness in the last few weeks. If anything, resting helps. You'll do great! Just listen to your body.
I am so happy to say I completedlg my 20miler this weekend at 23 weeks!!!! My total mileage for the week was 40! Horray!!
Still going strong! I rewarded myself with the best prenatal massage after that 20! It was amazing!

PINK!!! DUE - May 2015
11 weeks here. Good to see a 9 weeker now so I don't feel like such a "baby."
I got in 3 CrossFit sessions last week. Also managed to make my trail running group's weekly 6 mile run which is always fun. I was kind of dragging though. Luckily a few people (who had recently running 100 milers) were dragging with me!
I skipped step class on Thursday and took a rest day. Something weird was going on with my butt/leg/hip. I had this weird pain like deep inside my buttcheek. When I sat down, it was hard to get back up. Never had that before. The weirdness has shifted to my hip now but it is a lot less pressing.
None of that stopped me from going up to N. Georgia for a training run on Sat. 16 tough miles of run/hiking on a state park trail that I love to hate.
I thought I would be sore from Sat's 5 hr excursion, so I didn't have great plans for a 10K I was running Sat. My AM 5 mile runs are taking me about 55 minutes lately. I figured this race would take me 1:10 or so. On race day, however, I felt great and ran the entire thing (except water stops) hills and all! 1:01:56. I don't know where that energy came from but I wish every run felt like that!
I'm 36+3 and I only got in about 7 miles of walking/running. I worked extra hours to cover someone's vacation time so I was extremely tired and had swollen feet. I'm back to my normal hrs and my fat feet haven't been so fat lately so definitely putting in more miles this week.
I'm motivated like KC...I also have a section scheduled (10-5) and know I wont be able to run for some time after so want to take advantage of it beforehand. Hookem, hope your foot feels better very soon!!!
These last few weeks have been eye opening for me and pregnant running. I think after my halfs are done going to keep my weekly mileage around 15 miles and do 10ks at most.
Great job everyone on keeping up the exercise and look forward to possibly seeing some more new babies this week.
Mommy to DD born 12/24/07, DS born 11/10/09 and DS arrived 4/3/13.
32 weeks today! Last week was much more tough. It took me a little while to recover from my 5K where I ran at a faster pace. I ended up getting in 12 miles of running, used the elliptical three times and did a bunch of walking.
I love the comments about the husbands. I ended up squeezing in a second short run of the day when my husband and daughter were playing soccer, and my husband commented that it might be time to give up the running. This was the first time he saw me running pregnant, and I guess it was a real sight to see! It was awesome to hear first hand what I look like - now I know why I am getting all the weird looks on the trail. I love it!
Good luck this week, everyone!

Last day
... how its kept so clean and organised. At the airport we found our capsule hotel, a cleverly designed row of body sized pods with a duvet, a pillow, a light, a speaker emitting the sound of the sea and a blind to pull down once your in. All you need for a good nights sleep before a 12hr flight home. Somewhat sad to be leaving but so happy to be coming home to see you all. :) :) ...
Japanese Alps Adventure
We caught a bus through the snowy hills to the cable car that took us over 3000 metres into the Japanese Alps. Spectacular views at the top and a walk amongst paths carved through the deep, snow walls. Stunning pine trees covered in icicles and glistening snow. What a treat ...
On a lighter note, this is Hagi a town filled with pottery and orange groves. A place to sooth the soul with beauty. Bizarrely there was a gigantic modern building dedicated to ceramics in this quiet little island town. Incredible professional pottery in the museum and shops overflowing with more pots. No vanilla ice cream in this town, only orange. Made a change from seeing green tea ice ...
Nagasaki and the Atomic Bomb Museum
... and Peace Park were incredibly moving. It is a vital symbol of peace in a world still at war and still testing weapons of mass destruction. Incomprehensible!!! Fortunately steps have been taken by some countries and the Southern Hemisphere is free of nuclear weapons. America still has by far the most of any country. I hope you can read some of the photos. The message was loud and clear; nuclear weapons should never be used again, they are a crime against ...
Kurokawa onsen
The Kurokowa onsen area was recommended by a Japanese lady and this was definately the real deal. Amazing place up in the hills away from the mad cities. We woke up to the magic of a fresh snowfall, which was a tad cold for showering in but beautiful none the less. I left Danny to his work and his bathing and found my way further up into the hills, to primeval forest and sparrow hell - a sulphurous bubbling pool. It was worth the trek for the amazing view at the ...

(Saturday, November 1st)
Final Score: Georgia Tech 31, (16) Florida State 28
Atlanta, GA (Sports Network) - Jonathan Dwyer rushed for 145 yards and a pair of touchdowns as Georgia Tech survived a late scare and the loss of its starting quarterback to upend 16th-ranked Florida State, 31-28, at Dodd Stadium.
Josh Nesbitt rushed 14 times for 61 yards and completed 4-of-5 passes for 55 yards before leaving the game with an injury for the Yellow Jackets (7-2, 4-2 ACC), who have won four of their last five games and beat Florida State for the first time since 1975.
In addition, with Virginia's 24-17 home loss to Miami-Florida, Georgia Tech now has sole possession of first place in the Coastal Division.
Lucas Cox and Greg Smith recorded rushing TDs, while freshman backup quarterback Jaybo Shaw was shaky, throwing an interception on his lone pass attempt and losing a fumble.
Christian Ponder completed 16-of-27 passes for 149 yards, one score and a pick for the Seminoles (6-2, 3-2), whose four-game win streak came to an end.
Ponder also ran for a score, and Jermaine Thomas gained 130 yards on just nine attempts. Preston Parker caught five balls for 77 yards and a late touchdown.
Nesbitt left the game with 7:11 to play in third with an apparent right foot injury after tripping over his own lineman on a rushing attempt. On the following down, Shaw was hit and fumbled, with Kendrick Stewart recovering at the Seminoles' 43-yard-line. However, Derrick Morgan recovered a Ponder fumble at midfield six plays later.
Tech was unable to respond, and the game turned into a series of defensive stops until Parker made a leaping grab on a 39-yard pass by D'Vontrey Richardson to make it 31-26. Ponder's conversion pass to Greg Carr was good, and FSU's deficit was three with 6:04 left in regulation.
Patrick Robinson picked off Shaw on G-Tech's next play from scrimmage, and Florida State set up at its own 41. The visitors were poised for a go-ahead score but Marcus Sims had the ball punched out at the one and Rashaad Reid recovered in the end zone for the Yellow Jackets.
Shaw then took a knee twice to run out the remaining seconds and clinch the victory.
FSU got on the board on the first drive of the contest, as Ponder slipped in from the three to cap a 68-yard drive. After a return put the home team near midfield, a 31-yard field goal from Scott Blair made it 7-3.
The Seminoles answered on a 29-yard boot from Graham Gano, but a one-yard dive from Cox early in the second quarter drew Georgia Tech even.
After holding the visitors on the following series, the Yellow Jackets buzzed ahead 17-10 with a three-play, 62-yard drive that concluded when Dwyer broke free for a 36-yard TD run.
Quick strikes continued for both sides as Smith added a three-yard run to put Georgia Tech ahead 24-10 with 9 1/2 minutes remaining. The Seminoles answered when a 62-yard dash by Thomas set up a four-yard pass from Ponder to Seddrick Holloway for a 24-17 game with 8:05 left in the half.
Only 45 seconds were left when Gano hit from 45 yards out to bring Florida State within 24-20.
However, Dwyer's 66-yard scamper for a touchdown on Georgia Tech's first drive of the second half opened up a 31-20 edge.
Game Notes
Georgia Tech won despite being outgained 384-343 and picked up just 14 first downs compared to 18 for Florida State...FSU had a 12-game series win streak snapped but leads the all-time series 12-8-1...Ponder was sacked four times...Seminoles safety Darius McClure left the game with 8:42 to play in third quarter with an apparent left leg injury and did not return...The Yellow Jackets are on the road at North Carolina next Saturday, while the Seminoles host Clemson.

Very nice staff. Room seemed clean except for the smell which wasn't noticable after you get used to it. TV remote only marginally worked. Still, I think I would stay here again. Hope the carpet gets replaced before I come back.

The overall stay was excellent. The room was of average size and would recommend the suite if more than 5 people. The room had two queen beds and served the purpose of our stay, but not so much room. The room was equipped with the necessities (shampoo, soap, hair dryer, ironing board) etc. along with a flat screen TV and free internet to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Oh, the shower¿ very hot water which is always a plus. The room was very clean and neat!!! ...

Latest sfc analysis shows the cold front just north of KMAF, w/rapidly deteriorating cigs behind. As PBL winds continue to veer behind the front, isentropic upglide will commence NE-SW, bringing in LIFR cigs to KMAF/KHOB...IFR to KCNM/KFST...and MVFR to KINK/KPEQ. Fog will be possible as well, but cigs appear to be the limiting factor attm. Forecast soundings improve little, if at all, by the end of the forecast period. && PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 430 AM CDT Wed May 20 2015/ DISCUSSION... A cold front currently along a line from roughly Aspermont to Tatum to just south of Roswell will continue its southward push well ahead of schedule, moving through the area during the morning hours. Widespread cloudcover will fill in behind the front as it moves south, and looking upstream, a few showers and thunderstorms began to develop along and behind the front as it moved through Lubbock, which could continue into the northern Permian Basin and Western Low Rolling Plains this morning, though no severe weather is expected with these storms. Temperatures behind the front are quite cool for this time of year, with early morning temperatures across the northern Panhandle in the low to middle 40s. The cool air will continue filtering south behind the front today, thus have sided with cooler guidance across southeast New Mexico and the Permian Basin, with highs only expected to make it into the upper 60s and 70s, with around 80 degrees possible closer to the Pecos River. The front will slow its southward progression by this afternoon, with temperatures across the Lower Trans Pecos and points south still expected to climb well into the 80s, with some 90s possible along the Rio Grande. While forcing along the front itself will not be great, strong boundary later heating and steepening lapse rates are expected to be enough to generate convection once again this afternoon, mainly across the Lower Trans Pecos and far southern Permian Basin. The Storm Prediction Center has included the aforementioned area in a slight risk for severe thunderstorms, with the primary threats expected to be large hail and damaging winds. Thunderstorms are possible across much of the remainder of the area today as well, though initiation will be dependent on how long low clouds remain entrenched in the wake of this morning`s cold front. Precipitation chances will increase tonight through Thursday night area-wide as disturbances embedded in the southwest flow aloft move over the region, interacting with the stalled frontal boundary and moist low levels, providing ample lift for showers and thunderstorms. All models generate copious amounts of QPF during the Thursday- Thursday night time frame, thus, locally heavy rainfall will be a concern, especially for those locations that remain saturated from previous rainfall events this week. Ample cloudcover as well as precipitation on Thursday will keep temperatures across southeast New Mexico and west Texas quite cool for this time of year, with highs generally in the 60s and 70s, around 20 degrees below normal for some locations. The forecast high for Midland on Thursday of 65 degrees, if verified, would be a new record low maximum temperature for May 21. The current record is 68 degrees, which occurred May 21, 1943. Temperatures will begin to rebound on Friday, and continue to climb through the weekend. The chances of showers and thunderstorms will also remain through the weekend, first as a potent shortwave ejects across the area on Friday ahead of the larger scale western CONUS trough, and then ahead of the trough which looks to finally begin to progress eastward on Saturday. The trough will develop a positive tilt as it lifts across the region on Sunday, with weak ridging developing in its wake for Monday and Tuesday. This would spell a break in precipitation early next week, with temperatures climbing back into the mid to upper 80s to lower 90s by Tuesday, much closer to normal for this time of year. && .MAF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

This face wash is Good for the Skin,wallet . It smells good and works great. It is outstanding for exfoliating before shave with a DE razor. Highly recommended.
This is a natural wash,there is no worry about chemicals.It makes the face to feel nice.I use it regularly it does not irritate my skin.It is safe and nontoxic product.
I have a tendency for severe allergic reactions and eye irritations, my skin is extremely sensitive, this is the only moisturizer which does not irritate my skin.For me this is just the perfect moisturizer.
I live this face wash. I've been using this face wash for a few years now. it is mild enough to not dry out or irritate skin but does the job wonderfully of cleaning your face. This cleans thoroughly without drying. It takes off all my makeup as well. Great product.

I didn't go looking for this one but Noxzema triple clean was a refreshing surprise. This multi-tasker claims to act as a face wash, fights bacteria, scrub, face pack, oil remover and spot reducer, all rolled into one!
