The person at the desk was nice but the other employee walking by while we looked for the reservation was rude. When I asked if we could have a room on a high floor we were told there were no more King rooms (which is what we paid for). They could give us 2 dbl beds. When I found the confirmation number they had a king but it was a handicapped room that was 1/2 above ground.

Problem with booking and not very friendlyPosted Jun 7, 2015
Pros: Have a water park and activity area on site for kids. But you have to buy a day pass and have no discount for hotel guests.
Cons: More friendly staffs. Renovate family suites.
Location: Location is good. Not much to do near by. But has an onsite water park and sports facility.
We booked the family room with 4 beds for max 6 guests (as described on expedia website). Our room rate clearly indicate full breakfast included. When we arrive at hotel, we are told there is no such room available. We told them our reservation is confirmed. We were told it doesn't matter and it was just a request and no guarantee. I never had this experience before. Our reservation is clearly confirmed. How would you expect a guest to do book a room for a family and get there to find out there is no such room. They gave us a three bed family room and have to add a rollaway bed. When we get to the room, it was much smaller than what the photo shows. All the beds and furnitures are old and you can see the wear and tear marks. The beds are not comfortable at all. The breakfast place is small and cannot accommodate all the guests. We have to wait 20 minutes to get in. The food choice is limited. When we sit down to eat, we were asked for tickets, which we were never given nor informed about. I told them that our room includes breakfast. The staffs doesn't care. They still want to put the $100 charge to our room and have us to deal with it when we check out. We have to show them the expedia booking, which clearly says full breakfast included. Then they say they can only honor 4 people's breakfast. We still have to pay the rest. Overall, this is the worst experience from all our travels booked through expedia.

House Keeping NightmaresPosted May 18, 2015
Pros: Location was close to an event that I was attending
The hotel looked like it was a converted motel with a new entrance. The general condition of the room was unacceptable. We found a previous guests sock on the floor and there was no toilet paper in the bathroom

Posted Apr 24, 2015
Pros: Staff friendly, rooms clean and comfortable
Cons: Although we received a free cookie at check in, for the price breakfast, even continental ..should have been included.
Location: Lots of food places close by
Safe area, well lighted parking lot. Expensive to not include breakfast. Note they have a water park and weddings so found hallways and surrounding rooms very loud after 11pm.

Fuddy Meers opens at Pec Playhouse Feb. 11
From press release
PECATONICA, Ill.—Pec Playhouse Theatre, 314 Main St., Pecatonica, Ill., presents its 21st season-opener, Fuddy Meers, written by the Pulitzer Prize-winning American playwright and lyricist David Lindsay-Abaire.
The play is about a woman named Claire, who finds she has a rare form of amnesia that erases her memory whenever she goes to sleep and has to rediscover her life each day. Surrounding her is a curious assortment of bizarre characters who prove no communication is successful.
One character, an obnoxious, foul-mouthed hand puppet, Hinky-Binky, has no problem speaking openly as the play's major truth-teller.
Fuddy Meers is a comedy/mystery/drama about family, memory and the futility of communication. The play is one harrowing and hilarious turn after another on a roller-coaster ride through the day of an amnesiac trying to decipher her fractured life. This show is not suitable for children.
Director Laura Wiegert and her cast have put together a very entertaining evening. Performances are Fridays at 8 p.m., Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m., Feb. 11-27. Cost is $10 at the door, or $8 per show for a season subscription of four or five shows. Group rates are available. Call (815) 239-1210, or toll-free at 877-PEC-PLAY.

Consider for a moment David Cameron's life up to the age of 25.
The UK government's cuts to spending on public services are for ideological reasons, not just because of the deficit. In a speech at the lord mayor's banquet in the Guildhall, Prime Minister David Cameron announced his intention to build "a leaner, more efficient state. We need to do more with less. Not just now, but permanently."
"The English the English the English are best, I wouldn't give tuppence for all of the rest". It seems that the spirit of Flanders and Swann's 'Song of Patriotic Prejudice' took possession of David Cameron during the G20 meeting in St Petersburg last week. It is a pity he was not capable of sharing its tongue-in-cheek take on national braggadocio.
"Two arrogant posh boys who don't know the price of milk" Nadine Dorries' opinion of the Prime Minister and the Chancellor gave every appearance of welling up from a deep reservoir of personal peeve. But last week, a Conservative MP expressed an almost identical opinion to me.

Who is the Rangers' best defensive defenseman?

Ryan McDonagh was 7th in ES points for defensemen last year behind Karlsson, Bieksa, Byfuglien, Chara, Yandle and Boyle.
He had 2 PPP with 51:22 of PP TOI.
Del Zotto had 322:32 of PP TOI. So about 6.3 times the amount of time.
Assuming that same efficiency (and remembering McDonagh only played the final seconds of the PP with lesser players!), that's about 12.5 PPP if you give all of Del Zotto's time to McDonagh. Now, Del Zotto had 14 PPP in the time he had, but that's with higher talent.
Even if you give McDonagh the 12 points, that's still a 42 point season. If he can even slightly improve his PP efficiency and keep his ES point efficiency as well as get PP time, he could very well become a 45-50 point defenseman.
I hope we give him that PP time. But not until he gets his next long term contract so we don't have to pay him 6-7 mil a season

Publisher's Description
What does worship look like? Is there just one truly right way to worship? Are there any wrong ways? To what extent should our unity as believers manifest itself in unified public worship? Sadly, disagreement over how we should worship our loving God has sparked some most unloving attitudes among Christians. Exploring the Worship Spectrum seeks to correct this. It provides a forum for presentation, critique, and defense of six prominent worship styles: •Formal-Liturgical Paul Zahl •Traditional Hymn-Based Harold Best •Contemporary Music-Driven Joe Horness •Charismatic Don Williams •Blended Robert Webber •Emerging Sally Morgenthaler This unique format allows those with a heart for worship to compare different perspectives and draw their own conclusions on what the Bible teaches. It engages the readers faculties of critical thinking in a way that allows him or her to understand the various approaches to worship, carefully evaluate their strengths and weaknesses, and make personal choices without adopting a judgmental spirit. The Counterpoints series provides a forum for comparison and critique of different views on issues important to Christians. Counterpoints books address three categories: Church Life, Exploring Theology, and Engaging Culture. Complete your library with other books in the Counterpoints series.

Jeff the Brotherhood
Heavy Days
(Infinity Cat)
US: 5 Jan 2010
UK: 5 Jan 2010
Formed in 2001 and already on its sixth album, Jake and Jamin Orrall are Jeff the Brotherhood. The Tennessee-based family band—Dad Robert helps run their label Infinity Cat, which the boys started in high school—have been a well-kept secret of the local punk and hard rock scene around Nashville for far too long. Now, it's time for the rest of us to play catch-up as Heavy Days becomes its first record to get widespread distribution. With Jake on guitar and vocals and Jamin on drums, the brothers fuse together hard psych, muscular power-pop, and punchy punk in order to spit out a melodic speedball of pure rock 'n' roll energy. The gentle buzz of bees (really!) opens the album's excellent title track before the menacing calm is shattered by an electric blues-punk squall of insistent riffage and skin-pummelling defiancy that sets the tone perfectly for what's to follow. Highlights include "Growing", where the duo bring to mind the Fall, especially Jake's Mark E. Smith-like vocal stylings, and the wonderful "Bone Jam", a tight slice of fun, fun, fun, powerhouse power-pop. Oh joy, heavy days are here again!

Rep. Jane Harman , the California Democrat with a longtime involvement in intelligence issues, was overheard on an NSA wiretap telling a suspected Israeli agent that she would lobby the Justice Department reduce espionage-related charges against two officials of the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee, the most powerful pro-Israel organization in Washington.
Harman was recorded saying she would "waddle into" the AIPAC case "if you think it'll make a difference," according to two former senior national security officials familiar with the NSA transcript. In exchange for Harman's help, the sources said, the suspected Israeli agent pledged to help lobby Nancy Pelosi , D-Calif., then-House minority leader, to appoint Harman chair of the Intelligence Committee after the 2006 elections, which the Democrats were heavily favored to win.
Seemingly wary of what she had just agreed to, according to an official who read the NSA transcript, Harman hung up after saying, "This conversation doesn't exist."

Chess Under the Microscope
The Sveshnikov Sicilian is arguably the most dynamic line in the whole of the Sicilian Defence. Black takes on certain structural weaknesses but gains active piece play as compensation, which is very much in keeping with the modern style of play. Black is not content to equalize but from the very startsets out to wrest the advantage from his opponent's hands.

One of the most dynamic and attacking of all chess openings, the search for new ideas in the Trompowsky has gone beyond the rare and bizarre into the realm of the unorthodox and even bizarre. Somewhere in between lies a widely misunderstood and often mishandled device known as the Trompowsky Attack. Still a relatively young and evolving opening, this really took off in the 1980's and early 90's. This dynamic, attacking system has become a staple in the repertoires of many GM's. Of particular note, England's Julian Hodgson is often credited as the leading innovator of new, fresh Trompowsky ideas

The Lisitsin Gambit is a bold, even savage attack against the Dutch. It in no way refutes the Dutch, but it places black on a tight rope, a rope the unwary may easily slip off to their doom on.

Smith & Hall: "The Benko Gambit is a rare sort of opening: Black offers a pawn on the third move to snatch the initiative from White. The psychological effect is instantaneous. White, who thought he would control the opening with the initial tempo is immediately faced with vexing decisions. 'Do I take the pawn and try to keep it?'(Accepted); 'Do I take it for a little white but offer to return it later?' (Semi-Accepted); 'Or do I avoid the gambit altogether?' (Declined). 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 c5 3.d5 b5!. In any event we show that whichever course white adopts, black will obtain fluid counter-play. If white commits inaccuracies(even relatively slight ones), Black can quickly seize the initiative. By first studying our familiarization section the student new to the Benko will be given a good overview of all the main variations in the Benko Gambit. Next we present a thorough and up-to-date survey of all the major variations to show how Black can steer play into dynamic counter-play-oriented positions, which will provide exciting games and good practical winning chances.

New opening ideas are created frequently, but few have had the meteoric career of Nigel Short's system against the Caro-Kann defense. Virtually unknown before 1988, it has become a regular customer in super tournaments since the 1990's. And yet it is so simple to handle that a Class B player can master most of the strategies in an afternoon. The British GM's system consists of playing the Advance variation of the Caro-Kann with a relatively modest form of development- modest yet it can pack quite a wallop. What short discovered was not just a new move, but a new concept. Despite the presence of the annoying bishop on the excellent b1-h7 diagonal, Black had not equalized, he announced. Short demonstrated that the bishop could, in fact, become a liability that would be attacked in the general expansion of white's pawns on the kingside. 1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.e5 Bf5(as well as 3..c5 and 3..Na6)-new strategy against each one.

GM Soltis: "If white gets to attack in the Sicilian Defense anyway, why should he offer a pawn or two for the privilege? The answer is that black gets to counterplay in the Sicilian and his counterplay is usually as good as white's. That, in fact, is what makes the Sicilian popular. There are plenty of familiar Sicilian gambits(like the Smith Morra and Wing, which this book doesn't even cover). But in the last few years, a number of new ideas arising out of positional variations, have been discovered and found to pack a wallop for white". Here are six new white gambits against the Sicilian that the reader will have to attempt to destroy black!

Pillsbury the Extraordinary
The Catalan Opening is currently in the repertoire of most all of the world's elite players. It has even been played at the World Championship level many times! This is largely because it combines strategic pressure with possibilities for a very sharp, complicated tactical struggle. This is perfect for those who insist on decisive chess. However, there are also some quieter, more solid lines. The Catalan combines the Queen's Gambit pawn duo(d4 and c4) with the hypermodern fianchettoed KB as with 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.g3 or 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.g3. From g2, the KB strikes through the center squares e4 and d5 and beyond to c6, b7, and a8, applying pressure to Black's Queenside. Another important advantage of the Catalan is that it can be used to side step popular Black defenses such as the Nimzo-Indian and Queen's-Indian. It can also be reached by transpositions from many different move orders. This is very good against strong opposition!

The Goring Gambit is one of White's most dynamic choices after 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6. With 3.d4! White immediately challenges Black's "pawn anchor" on e5 while prying open lines for rapid, aggressive development. After 3..exd4 White can, of course, opt for the Scotch Game with 3.Nxd4 - which is quite sound for White - but we recommend that you choose the gambit with 4.c3, daring Black to grab a pawn with 4..dxc3. If Black accepts, white will get a lead in development and many opportunities for a prolonged initiative. There is a line that modern theory favors black, but we show you how to avoid it. If your opponent is too scared to accept the gambit with 4..dxc3, then there are declining moves with 4..Nf6, 4..d5, and 4..d3. Against all these more sedate lines we will show how to keep Black under pressure. A number of top players have adopted the Goring gambit over time; among them are GM's Tal, Stein, Gufeld, Velimirovic, and Ljubojevic. FM Ken Smith, one of the authors, has been playing middle gambits(Danish, Goring, BDG, & Smith-Morra) all his 47-year chess career.

The Goring Gambit Accepted and Declined
Wanted: Opening system needed to combat the most popular defense to 1.e4. Must be sound, flexible, and aggressive. Experience against all Black formations essential. GM's Short and Nunn came forward in the late 1980's and early 1990's to give us one catch-all system. First it was proven successful against one Black setup, and then against another and another. Its successes were registered at the highest levels. Fischer played it against Spassky in the 1992 return match! Still the most popular system against the Najdorf today.

Beating the Sicilian Defense with the Short-Nunn Attack
There is no longer any excuse for study enthusiasts familiar with the contemporary scene to remain uninformed, as I admit to have been myself, about the development of composition on the other side of the Atlantic. All is now revealed by the man most competent to do so. Walter Korn, for many years the leading American endgame columnist, traces the evolution of the endgame study. Walter Korn writes with feeling. He shares the suffering and elation of those he writes about. He has been through it all himself and his descriptive writing stems from a deep love of his subject and of the work of his compatriots. A warm hearted book." - an excerpt from a review by C.M. Bent in the British Chess Magazine.

Philidor Defense - A Re-Appraisal
Smith & Hall: "Nowadays the Reti(1.Nf3 d5 2.c4) is a staple opening of many strong GM's in top tournament play. There is a steady stream of theoretical discoveries for both White and Black. In this book we analyze in depth the main lines of play in this opening. Often we give several good choices for white - just in case Black finds a "new move" in a main line setting. By thorough study of this book you will be well armed to outmaneuver your opponent with White, in the complex and fascinating pathways of the hypermodern Reti."

Part 3: From's Gambity(a hard gambit to meet - here is how GM's play against it). Part 4: Other Defenses Black May Play.

You, as Black, will know what to do while your opponent eats time on his clock trying, repeat trying, to find his way. Black is playing to win.

Toes in the water...
Kinda like the headliner says….I'm just putting my toes in the water and seeing how this is. I'd say I'm looking for an active person who is secure in them selves and loves to try something new yet also share their own true loves in life with someone new. Originally from northern California I moved to San Diego nine years ago for a job offer and I have been here since. My family is important to me and I have been very fortunate to have them still close to me and also down here in southern California. I love the taste of a great healthy meal, cooked at home, with friends, on the BBQ, or out at a nice restaurant. I enjoy the many different flavors out there and the more complex the better. Thai, Indian, Mediterranean, far east and sushi are among my favorites. I cannot live with out sushi…. I have had a chance to do quite a bit of traveling with the past career that I had which could be a good topic at a later date to discuss. Honesty is the most important thing to me. I'm not the type to sugar coat things or lie to people, maybe my honesty can be a little harsh, but at the same time I would like to have the same respect given back to me. Like I had mentioned above I am looking for a great person to get to know better and enjoy life with. I believe in making things work and not giving up if things become tough. With that I don't want someone who is false about whom she really is. Just be yourself, skip a day shaving your legs, put on a hat, don't wear any make up, don't bring your Gucci purse…I don't care, I'm not materialistic, just be normal and enjoy life.
