Mejia settles with Mets
Jenrry Mejia and the New York Mets have settled on a deal according to CBS Sports.
The report said Mejia and the Mets agreed on a $2.595 million deal.
Mejia, 25, appeared in 63 games for the Mets this season and posted a 3.65 ERA. The right hander also struck out 98 batters in 93 2/3 innings.

Braves officially sign Toscano
The Braves have officially signed Cuban outfielder Dian Toscano to a four-year contract, the team announced on Wednesday. Toscano's deal includes a club option for the 2019 season.
To make room for Toscano on the 40-man roster, the Braves designated outfielder Jose Constanza for assignment.
Toscano, 25, posted a .356/.440/.452 slash line in Cuba's Serie Nacional during the 2012-13 season. A left-handed hitter, Toscano is expected to begin this season in the Minors, tweets MLB.com's Mark Bowman.
"We are very excited to come to terms with a player of Dian's ability," Braves president of baseball operations John Hart said in a statement released by the team. "As we look to add depth to our organization, the international market is very important to us and expanding our search into Cuba is a significant step."
Constanza has played parts of four seasons with the Braves, appearing in 12 games in 2014.

White Sox bring back Gordon Beckham
Gordon Beckham is back with the White Sox. The infielder has agreed to terms on a one-year, $2 million contract, the club announced on Wednesday.
To make room on the 40-man roster for Beckham, the White Sox designated outfielder Dayan Viciedo for assignment.
Beckham, 28, was traded to the Angels last August after spending all of his career with Chicago. In 127 games between the two teams last season, he hit .226 with 27 doubles and nine home runs.
"Adding Gordon improves the depth and flexibility of our roster," White Sox general manager Rick Hahn said in a statement released by the team. "We are thrilled to have him back. Like Emilio Bonifacio, Gordon brings the ability to play solid defense at multiple positions or play on an everyday basis should the need arise. This also gives Robin the ability to play matchups more effectively when setting the lineup."
Beckham was a first-round pick by the White Sox in the 2008 Draft and made his Major League debut in '09.
Viciedo hit .231 with 21 homers in 145 games with the White Sox last year.

Joe Blanton coming out of retirement?
Veteran starting pitcher Joe Blanton is on the comeback trail. The right-hander will hold an open workout and bullpen session for interested clubs on Feb. 4, tweets Tim Dierkes of MLB Trade Rumors.
Blanton, 34, retired from baseball in April and did not pitch in the big leagues last season. He last pitched in the Majors in 2013 with the Angels, going 2-14 with a 6.04 ERA over 28 appearances, including 20 starts.
Over a 10-year career with the Phillies, A's, Dodgers and Angels, Blanton is 85-89 with a 4.51 ERA. He's pitched at least 191 innings in six different seasons.
At this point, Blanton's best bet to get back to the Majors would seem to be as a fifth starter on a Minor League deal. If he can go to Spring Training with a club, he could have a shot.
–Austin Laymance
Mariners sign John Baker to Minors deal
The Mariners have signed veteran catcher John Baker to a Minor League contract with an invitation to Major League Spring Training, according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.
Baker, 34, provides depth and should compete for a backup role with Seattle. He hit .192 in 68 games with the Cubs last season. Baker has also played for the Marlins and Padres over a seven-year career in the big leagues.
The Mariners have three catchers on their 40-man roster in Mike Zunino, John Hicks and Jesus Sucre.
Pitchers and catchers report to Mariners camp Feb. 20.

Report: Nationals sign Casey Janssen
The Nationals bolstered their bullpen on Wednesday, reportedly agreeing to a one-year deal with free-agent reliever Casey Janssen.
FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal first reported the agreement, which is for one year with a mutual option and a total guarantee of $5 million. The club has not confirmed the report.
Janssen, 33, went 3-3 with a 3.94 ERA and 25 saves for the Blue Jays last season. Over the past three years in Toronto, he compiled 81 saves while posting a 2.94 ERA and 0.99 WHIP in 168 appearances.
Janssen could compete for the setup role made available when the Nationals traded reliever Tyler Clippard to the A's in exchange for shortstop Yunel Escobar earlier this month.
In parts of eight seasons with the Blue Jays, Janssen went 29-24 with a 3.52 ERA and 90 saves in 493 innings.

Snider headed to O's in trade with Pirates
Outfielder Travis Snider is headed to Baltimore in exchange for left-handed pitching prospect Stephen Tarpley. The Pirates will also receive a player to be named later in the deal.
To make room on their 40-man roster, Baltimore designated catcher Michael Ohlman for assignment.
The two clubs reportedly discussed a deal involving Snider and Orioles left-hander Brian Matusz last month, but those talks apparently never gained enough traction. Instead, it's Tarpley, who spent last season with low Class A Aberdeen, heading to Pittsburgh in the trade.
Snider, who turns 27 next week, had a breakout season of sorts last year, particularly after the All-Star break. He posted a .288/.356/.524 batting line with nine home runs and 24 RBIs in just 60 games during the season's second half.
"Snider is a solid, dependable, power-hitting outfielder and is an excellent fit for Camden Yards," Orioles executive vice president Dan Duquette told MLB.com via text. "[He] should be a good addition to the club, at bat and in [the] field."
Despite Snider's potential, there was a logjam blocking him from consistent playing time in Pittsburgh. The Pirates currently have Starling Marte and highly-touted prospect Gregory Polanco slated to man the corner outfield spots alongside perennial MVP threat Andrew McCutchen in center.
Meanwhile, acquring Snider helps Baltimore fill the void left by the departures this offseason of Nick Markakis and Nelson Cruz. The O's have been tied to a number of outfielders this offseason, both via free agency and potential trades, but hadn't yet reeled in a replacement.
The 21-year-old Tarpley, who was a third-round pick in the 2013 Draft out of Scottsdale Community College, had a 3.68 ERA in 13 appearances last season (12 starts). He posted a 1.41 WHIP, while fanning 60 hitters in 66 innings.

Rockies not planning to move Tulo, Gonzalez
Rockies general manager Jeff Bridich reportedly told FOX Sports' Jon Heyman on Tuesday that it is "highly, highly unlikely" that either Troy Tulowitzki or Carlos Gonzalez will be traded prior to Opening Day.
Both players have been mentioned frequently as potential trade pieces this offseason, but nothing has come of it thus far. Tulowitzki, in particular, was tied to a number of teams earlier in the offseason, including both New York clubs, but those talks never gained much traction.
The Yankees instead acquired Didi Gregorius from the D-backs and the Mets insisted they are content on entering the season with Wilmer Flores as their starting shortstop. There have been virtually no other rumors involving Tulowitzki over the past month.
Though the Rockies were said to at least be listening to potential offers for the duo, it's unlikely that they've heard the type of substantial offer they're looking for. Not only are both Tulowitzki and Gonzalez coming off injury-plagued seasons, but Tulowitzki — who's had a number of injury concerns throughout his career — is owed $114 million over the next six seasons and Gonzalez is due $53 million over the next three years.
Whether it's because the Rockies truly want to keep both players or they simply couldn't find a suitable trade partner, it appears for the time being that both Tulowitzki and Gonzalez will begin the season in Colorado.

Astros trying to shore up rotation, looking at Correia
The Astros are "among the teams" that are showing interest in right-hander Kevin Correia, according to CBS Sports' Jon Heyman.
After missing out on free agent starter Ryan Vogelsong, who ultimately elected to return to the Giants last week, the Astros are now turning their focus toward other back-end starters to fill out their rotation. Houston had also been linked to free-agent right-hander Kyle Kendrick prior to missing out on Vogelsong, so he could be another option.
Correia racked up a 5.44 ERA over 32 appearances between the Dodgers and Twins last year, while Kendrick posted a 4.61 ERA over 32 starts with the Phillies.
As of right now, the Astros' rotation consists of Scott Feldman, Dallas Keuchel, Collin McHugh, Brett Oberholtzer and recently-acquired Dan Straily. Straily is currently slated into the fifth starting spot after being acquired from the Cubs last week as part of the Dexter Fowler trade, but the Astros could add some depth and create competition before Spring Training. Brad Peacock could also join the mix at some point, though he's unlikely to be ready for Opening Day after undergoing offseason hip surgery.

Moncada reportedly works out for Dodgers
Highly-sought-after Cuban infielder Yoan Moncada worked out for the Dodgers on Monday morning, Jeff Passan of Yahoo! Sports reported on Twitter, adding that the Dodgers "remain a significant threat because of deep pockets."
This is just the latest in a slew of showcases held for Moncado, who previously worked out for the Brewers, Rangers, Giants, Yankees, Red Sox and Padres in Florida, MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez wrote. The Rays, Cubs and Phillies are also showing strong interest for the 19-year-old, according to Sanchez.
Moncada could garner a signing bonus of up to $40 million, which would become nearly an $80 million commitment due to the dollar-for-dollar overage tax on teams exceeding their spending pools. Before signing, though, Moncada must be cleared by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.

The aim of this review is to describe the level of intimacy between Ty retrotransposons (Ty1–Ty5) and their host the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The effects of Ty location in the genome and of host proteins on the expression and mobility of Ty elements are highlighted. After a brief overview of Ty diversity and evolution, we describe the factors that dictate Ty target-site preference and the impact of targeting on Ty and adjacent gene expression. Studies on Ty3 and Ty5 have been especially informative in unraveling the role of host factors (Pol III machinery and silencing proteins, respectively) and integrase in controlling the specificity of integration. In contrast, not much is known regarding Ty1, Ty2 and Ty4, except that their insertion depends on the transcriptional competence of the adjacent Pol III gene and might be influenced by some chromatin components. This review also brings together recent findings on the regulation of Ty1 retrotransposition. A large number of host proteins (over 30) involved in a wide range of cellular processes controls either directly or indirectly Ty1 mobility, primarily at post-transcriptional steps. We focus on several genes for which more detailed analyses have permitted the elaboration of regulatory models. In addition, this review describes new data revealing that repression of Ty1 mobility also involves two forms of copy number control that act at both the trancriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Since S. cerevisiae lacks the conserved pathways for copy number control via transcriptional and post-transcriptional gene silencing found in other eukaryotes, Ty1 copy number control must be via another mechanism whose features are outlined. Ty1 response to stress also implicates activation at both transcriptional and postranscriptional steps of Ty1. Finally, we provide several insights in the role of Ty elements in chromosome evolution and yeast adaptation and discuss the factors that might limit Ty ectopic recombination.

"Fig is a great choice for winter-to-spring because compositions tend to be both earthy and fresh, and not too sweet or heavy—so they're easy to wear and work excellent in both professional and casual environments," explains Franco Wright, co-owner of LA's niche fragrance boutique Scent Bar.
Naturally understated, fig is also a unisex scent that you can share with your beau—though the ripe picks in this gallery are so delicious, you'll likely want to stockpile for yourself! Here's how to incorporate the subtle aroma into your beauty routine.

Over the long Christmas Holiday weekend, the NY Times published For Poor, Leap to College Often Ends in a Hard Fall. The post is a anecdotal essay correlating being poor and the inability of those who are poor to become higher educated. This post shows how easy it was for the starring subjects to get loans, and how easy it was not to graduate and be stuck with bill anyway.
Monthly, we report on consumer credit noting that the majority of money flows into consumer credit is due to student loans.
The red line on the above graph is the growth of consumer credit after subtracting student loans. Currently, not considering student loans – consumer credit is growing at $200 per year for every person 18 years or older in the USA.
Student loans, however, are not obtained by the majority of the population – most is targeted to a small group 18 to 26 years old. The average debt burden on this segment per capita is growing at an annual rate exceeding $2,000.
Here are some random statistics from the American Student Assistance (ASA) website:
The lead NY Times article, however, was not about those who graduated – but about those who dropped out. Here the ASA website offered the following perspective.
This past week Econintersect has featured an opinion piece The 21st Century Debtors' Prison as well as Infographic of the Day: Graduating Our University Students. These were a mixture of fact and opinion. In this analysis post we will try to provide facts and perspective and refer you to the other sources for opinion.
One significant factor that differentiates the U.S. from other countries: Many countries educate their young at no cost to the students. It remains to be determined by other analysis which approach to funding higher education has any economic advantage. At this juncture it appears that a generation is being saddled with debt they may not be able to repay – and that could well be the deciding factor in the economic analysis.
My weekend posts are geared to identifying specific elements of the USA economic system which are creating growing headwinds for future economic growth. It is hard to believe student loans are a healthy societal benefit (or investment) in the future. However, I have difficulty espousing solutions:
I do not believe there are any good or perfect solutions – but the current path for the USA is clearly wrong. This is a consumption based economy, and the young entering the workforce are not able to provide economic tailwinds as they are unable to consume.
Other Economic News this Week:
The Econintersect economic forecast for December 2012 shows weak growth. The underlying dynamics continue to have a downward bent. There are recession markers still in play, and one of our alternate methods to validate our forecast is recessionary. All in all, not a great forecast – but not one which would cause you to jump out the nearest window either.
ECRI believes the recession began in July 2012. ECRI first stated in September 2011 a recession was coming. The size and depth is unknown. The ECRI WLI growth index value has been weakly in positive territory for over three months. The index is indicating the economy six month from today will be slightly better than it is today.
/images/z weekly_indexes.PNG
Initial unemployment claims rose from 361,000 (reported last week) to 350,000 this week. Historically, claims exceeding 400,000 per week usually occur when employment gains are less than the workforce growth, resulting in an increasing unemployment rate.
The real gauge – the 4 week moving average – continued to fall from 367,750 (reported last week) to 356,750. Because of the noise (week-to-week movements from abnormal events AND the backward revisions to previous weeks releases), the 4-week average remains the reliable gauge.

Copying was a common and important artistic practice during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Artists made copies as part of their training, to demonstrate or improve their skill, or to reproduce an image as a print from which multiple copies could be made. A copy might be intended as a sincere—and flattering—imitation, or as a willful forgery of a celebrated original work.

And when the Blues open the season Thursday against the Nashville Predators at Scottrade Center, Hull will drop the ceremonial puck. FOX Sports Midwest coverage of the opener begins at 6 p.m. -- an hour before game time -- with live coverage of a pregame fans rally outside Scottrade. Opening night festivities will include live music from "Paint the Earth" and appearances by Blues alumni, broadcasters, Louie and the Blue Crew. Fans also will be able to participate in the Blues inflatable slapshot game, among other activities. Doors to Scottrade Center will open at 5:30 p.m. The Blues encourage fans to arrive at their seats by 6:45 p.m. for a special pregame show and the introduction of the 2013-14 team.

Sets of variously shaped wooden or plastic bricks held together by gravity only, and sets of structural toy elements assembled by connectors or by interengaging parts are staple articles of commerce. The range of structures that can be assembled from bricks is limited, and the construction games relying on interengaged elements or connectors require more skill, patience, and sometimes even force than a child of nursery age or younger can muster.
The object of the invention is the provision of a set of toy construction elements from which even a very young child can assemble a variety of relatively large structures, such as toy houses or play houses, in a short time.
With this object and others in view, the invention, in its more specific aspects, provides a set of toy construction elements including a plurality of flat plates and a plurality of disc-shaped connectors. Each plate has a plurality of angularly offset, elongated edges and two spaced guide faces which transversely intersect each edge and therebetween bound a web section of the plate.
Each connector has an axis and a circumferential portion extending about the axis. Slots in the circumferential portion in respective, angularly offset, axial planes separate radially elongated, resiliently deformable tongue parts of the circumferential disc portion. Each slot is dimensioned to receive therein one of the afore-mentioned web sections under the resilient pressure of the adjacent tongue parts while the plate which includes the received web section extends substantially in the axial plane of the slot, and at least one of the guide faces engages an associated tongue part.
Other features, additional objects, and many of the attendant advantages of this invention will readily become apparent as the same becomes better understood by reference to the following detailed description of preferred embodiments when considered in connection with the drawing wherein:
FIGS. la, 1b, llc, Id, and le show respective plate members of a toy construction set of the invention in perspective view;
FIG. 2 shows a web section and associated features common to the several plate members of FIGS. 1a to le in a fragmentary, perspective view on a greatly enlarged scale; v
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a connector;
FIG. 4 shows a fragment of the connector of FIG. 3 on a much larger scale; and
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a play house or doll house assembled from plate members and connectors of the invention.
The several flat plates shown in FIGS. 1a to 1e are merely illustrative of the variety of sizes and shapes that are preferably included in a set of construction elements of the invention, but other shapes will readily suggest themselves.
The plate la is square and its thickness is but a small fractionof the length of its four narrow edges. The center of each edge is reduced in thickness to a thin web section ll,,and bores extend through the plate 1a at the geometrical center of its two parallel, major surfaces and near the four corners of the plate.
The thickness of the plates 1b, 10, Id, 1e in the respective equally numbered Figures is the same as that of the plate la, and the web sections 11 have the same dimensions and configuration as will presently be described with reference to FIG. 2. i
The plate lb is rectangular, as wide as the plate la and twice as long. It has two spaced web sections 11 in the two long edges and one in each of the short edges. The plate 1c is also rectangular, but shorter than the plate lb, and provided with only one web section 11 in each of its four straight edges. The plate Id is square, twice the length and width of the plate la, and provided with two spaced, reduced web sections 11 in each edge. The plate 1e has the shape of a right triangle whose hypothenuse edge has the same length as the longer edge of the plate lb or one side of the plate 1d, and is provided with two web sections whose spacing is equal to that of the web sections in the longer edge of the plate lb or in any edge of the plate 1d. The cathete edges of the plate 1e each have one centered web section 11.
Details of a web section 11 and of associated identical features of an edge 1 in any one of the illustrated plates are shown on a larger scale in FIG. 2. The web section 11, two elongated guide faces 12 of the illustrated plate, and an abutment face 13 of the plate bound a recess 16 in one of the major surfaces of the plate, and an identical recess 17, only partly visible in FIG. 2, is formed in the other major surface. The recesses 16, 17 are aligned in the direction of plate thickness and are mirror images of each other relative to a plane of symmetry parallel to and equidistant from the two major surfaces in which the web section ll is located.
The faces l2, 13 are each elongated and connect the associated major surface with the web section 111. The guide faces 12 intersect the edge 1 at right angles while the face 13 is spacedly parallel to the edge I. The faces 12 are spaced from each other and bound the web section ll in the direction of edge elongation. The recess es 16, 17 extending inward from the edge I and from the respective major surfaces, and the latter are bounded by the several elongated edges 1 of which only one is shown in FIG. 2 The face of web section 11 which forms the bottom of the recess 16 has a shallow, cylindrically arcuate groove 14 parallel to and spacedly adjacent the abutment face 13, and a corresponding groove in the web section 1 1 open toward the recess 17 is not visible in the drawing.
The plate members of the toy construction set may be assembled by means of identical connectors 2 of which one is shown in FIG. 3, and partly in greater detail in FIG. 4. Each connector 2 is a circular, cylindrical disc whose axial dimension is approximately one third of its diameter. Eight slots 21, in respective axial planes offset 45 about the connector axis, divide the circumferential portion of the connector 2 into eight radially elongated tongues 22.
The preferred material of all toy construction elements of the invention is a somewhat resilient synthetic resin composition such as nylon which is readily injection molded in the illustrated shapes. The slots 21 have parallel, approximately radial walls, and the tongues 22, thererfore, taper in a radially inward direction and are resiliently deformable, particularly by bending their radially innermost roots.
Each slot 21 is dimensioned to receive therein one of the web sections 11 under the resilient pressure of the two tongues 22 which bound the slot, and which hold the plate member associated with the received web section substantially in the axial plane of the receiving slot, as will presently be described with reference to FIG. 5.
The axial height of the connector 2 is equal to or only slightly smaller than the spacing of two guide faces 12 so that at least one of the two guide faces touches a radial face of one or both tongues 22 separated by the slot 21 in which the associated web section 11 is received.
An axial rib 23 of cylindrically arcuate contour projects from each tongue 22 into each of the two adjacent recesses 21. The rib is spacedly adjacent the outer circumferential face of the connector 2 for engagement with acorresponding groove 14 in an inserted web section 11 when the outer circumferential face of the connector 2 engages the abutment face 13. The engaged ribs 23 and grooves 14 in corresponding engagement faces of the connector and the associated web section radially secure the connector on the plate, and the same result may be achieved in an obvious manner, not shown, by providing grooves in the radial slot faces of the connector, and ribs on the exposed major faces of the web section 11. A single rib 23 in each slot may be sufficient with a plastic connector material stiffer than that presently preferred for molding the connectors 2.
A bore 24 passes axially through the center of each connector 2 and is of the same diameter as the several bores which pass through each of the plate members 1a le in patterns chosen to permit the use of several cylindrical plastic rods or wooden dowel pins (not shown) for simultaneously connecting parallel plates as structural reinforcement or as shafts for rotating elements, the connectors 2, for example, providing wheels for toy vehicles assembled from a set of structural elements of the invention.
The manner in which several plates of the set may be assembled by means of the connectors 2 is illustrated, by way of example, in FIG. 5, but the number of structures capable of being built by means of the set is limited only by the number of elements in a set and a childs imagination.
The structure shown in F IG. 5 is a play house or doll house open in a direction away from the viewer. Its pitched roof consists of two identical plates lb linked at an angle of 90 by a connector 2 engaging web sections in the centers of short edges of the two plates. Two connectors 2 link the roof plates to respective cathete edges of a gable plate 1e which has the shape of an isoceles, right triangle. A square plate la depends vertically at an angle of 135 from the lower, horizontal edge of each roof plate lb to form a side wall of the house, and two juxtaposed plates lc depending from the hypothenuse edge of the plate 12' provide the front wall of the house. Two additional plates 1c provide the floor. Connectors are arranged between the roof and gable plates lb, 1e and the dependent wall plates la, 10, and between the latter and the floor'plates 1c, but none are needed, though capable of being provided,
between the wall plates la, 10, nor between the two floor plates 10. The entire toy house thus consists of 9 plates and 13 connectors of which two are obscured in the view of FIG. 5, and is quickly assembled even by a very young child without taxing its attention span.
Straight-edged plates are generally handled with greater ease by a beginner, but plates having arcuate edges may be added to the set when the child becomes more familiar with the game. Connectors having fewer than eight slots and angularly arranged otherwise than as specifically shown also have applications in connection with the plate elements, but the illustrated connectors have been found to be most versatile and adequately to cover the angular relationships between connected plates that are readily understood by the user for whom the set is primarily intended.
The recesses l6, l7 and associated guide faces may be provided in one major face of each plate only at some loss in strength of the assembled structures. It is also possible to avoid recesses in the plate edges and to make the web sections of the same thickness as the remainder of the associated edge, and to have them bounded by guide faces on projecting integral ribs on one or both of the major plate surfaces. The illustrated dimensional relationship of the web sections to other parts of the set is preferred, however. One of its advantages resides in the relatively small dimensions of the connectors required for securely attaching the plates to each other.
It should be understood, therefore, that the foregoing disclosure relates only to preferred embodiments of the invention, and that it is intended to cover all changes and modifications in the examples of the invention herein chosen for the purpose of the disclosure which do not constitute departures from the spirit and scope of the invention set forth in the appended claims.

This hotel's amenities include refrigerator and microwave on the website. Upon check-in, we discovered our room had neither. When I complained to the front desk, I was told that none of the second floor rooms have those amenities. My wife is
diabetic, and the best the motel could offer us was to keep her medicine in a refrigerator at the front desk. The motel has an excellent location, and is convenient to everything.
Picketts buffet. best deal in town.
Great location, mediocre room
Great location for accessing local attractions without being in the middle of town. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Also very close to local attractions, everything within walking distance or a short drive.
Lodging is mediocre,
just the bare essentials. Towels were small, scratchy, and smelly. The room was clean and maid service was good.
The Gettysburg National Military Park visitors center is excellent!
Would not recommend
It was OK
While the location was great, the motel definitely shows signs of age even with the updates they did. Air conditioner was very noisy.
The sights of Gettysburg are awesome, something new to see, each time we visit.
Unbeatable location for the price
Very nice motel for half the price of name brand motels in area.
This motel is in a key location for all walking opportunities in Gettysburg.
first gettysburg trip
We enjoyed the hotel alot a good place to rest after touring all day the staff extremly helpful being our first trip to gettysburg. situated on the edge (or on the battle feild) gave a good location for downtown attractions as well as the
southern end of the battle. also walking distance to good food and attractions. we will try to stay here again the next time we visit.
Just beside the motel there is a mueseum and a mcdonalds, kfc and just pass that is pickets buffet and theatre. All within a five minute walk.
Nice but Dated
Staff was friendly and professional. The rooms and the propoerty was clean and well maintained. The location was great. Many attractions near walking distance. The hotel needs serious renovation. The architecture is 1950's style motel type.
The decor (funature, carpeting, bathrooms) need serious updating. My guess is, the last upgrade the the rooms and propoerty was in the 1980s. With all its drawbacks, I would stay there again.
Great hotel, great location, great time!
We had a wonderful time at this hotel. The price was reasonable for downtown Gettysburg, the staff were very friendly, and best of all, the rooms were extremely clean. It was only after checking in that we realized the hotel was also pet
friendly (a major plus in my estimation) and the 2nd floor rooms have a balcony. Admittedly, it was a view of the parking lot, but it was still nice to have a place to sit down and relax outside of your own room in privacy. The only drawbacks I found were no coffeemaker in the room and for some reason I kept ruining the door cards, even after I learned my lesson about keeping them away from the cell phone holder. Otherwise, it was wonderful, and the staff did cheerfully fix the card for me multiple times.
The Rupp House - it's hands on history, wonderful, and FREE! All done by volunteers, it is historic and well worth seeing. On Route 30 before it becomes Steinwher Avenue in downtown Gettysburg.
Father and son getaway
Hotel description was very accurate! All sites and activities within town were within walking distance. Only driving done was to Gettsyburg National Military Park Museum and Visitor Center and thru the National Park itself.
Hotel staff was very
friendly and helpful.
Good continental breakfast, ample selection of food.
Good Value for the Price!
Extremely friendly, helpful and available staff.
Dobbin House was excellent! Call for reservations!
great location - great price
friendly staff, clean rooms, nice continental breakfast, free wi-fi. very enjoyable experience.

Ouch! Seattle Mariners' Nelson Cruz leaves game with dislocated pelvic bone
Seattle Mariners outfielder/designated hitter Nelson Cruz left Monday night's game against the Kansas City Royals after he dislocated his pelvic bone, according to MLB.com. As for how Cruz's pelvic bone simply popped out of place and forced him to leave in the seventh inning, nobody seems to have much of a clue. "Your guess is as good as […] [Read More]
Watch: Son of Mariners ace Felix Hernandez shows off his genetic high heat on Fathers Day
On Fathers Day, 6-year-old Jeremy Hernandez, son of Seattle Mariners ace Felix Hernandez, wanted to show Safeco Field that he's got a big-league fastball. He got his chance during the ceremonial first pitch Sunday. The righty pumped a heater to his father, causing Mariners fans to erupt. For the 2010 Cy Young Award winner, well, […] [Read More]
Seattle Mariners name Edgar Martinez as new hitting coach
The Seattle Mariners named Edgar Martinez, the ballclub's legendary designated hitter, as the team's new hitting coach on Saturday. With the move, former hitting coach Howard Johnson became the first real scapegoat of the M's disappointing 2015 season. The Mariners said he has been reassigned to the minor leagues. Martinez, 52, spent his entire MLB […] [Read More]

Erik Bedard, key figure in Mariners' disastrous 2008 trade, retires
Like any other major league franchise, the Seattle Mariners have made some trades they'd like to forget.

Jones has made four American League All-Star […] [Read More]
Reports: Seattle Mariners still in the market for a hitter, perhaps Ben Revere
Even after picking up Mark Trumbo last week, the Seattle Mariners are reportedly still be searching for another hitter — perhaps Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Ben Revere. That's according to a handful of reports, including one from CSNPhilly.com's Jim Salisbury, who wrote Wednesday that Seattle "is still monitoring the market for hitters" and scouted Revere earlier […] [Read More]

Reston-based LightSquared Inc. vowed Wednesday to continue its fight to establish a national wireless broadband network, a day after federal regulators ruled its plan posed too great a danger to existing defense, aviation and GPS networks.
After Federal Communications Commission officials made clear late Tuesday that they would not approve the company's wireless network, LightSquared CEO Sanjiv Ahuja accused the government of bowing to political pressure and said regulators were guilty of trying to "choose winners and losers" rather than let the market decide.
Although the FCC gave tentative approval last year for LightSquared's plan to build a land-based network that would reach nearly 70 percent of the United States by 2015, the proposal has been controversial from the start, for both technical and commercial reasons. LightSquared officials contend the technical problems - including interference with Defense Department, GPS and other existing satellite signals - were fixable.
"Politicians, rather than engineers and scientists, dictated the solution to the problem from Washington," Mr. Ahuja said in statement Wednesday afternoon.
"To leave this problem unresolved is the height of bureaucratic irresponsibility and undermines the very principles that once made America the best place in the world to do business. We remain committed to finding a solution and believe that if all the parties have that same level of commitment, a solution can be found."
More than a year ago, President Obama set a goal to double the amount of commercial broadband wireless spectrum to the country. About the same time, LightSquared received a conditional permit to develop an open wireless broadband network that fit Mr. Obama's description.
But the move sparked a ferocious political and lobbying battle. Critics said the LightSquared network would wreak havoc with existing satellite signals near it on the spectrum. The company contended the opposition came in part because of the threat the company posed to existing carriers such as AT&T and Verizon Wireless.
The Reston company has spent a reported $4 billion on preparation work for the now-blocked network, much of it assembled by billionaire investor Philip Falcone.
Matters came to a head Tuesday when the Commerce Department's National Telecommunications and Information Administration told the FCC in a letter it could not find a way to lessen the threat LightSquared's network would pose to GPS systems. LightSquared's devices, NTIA officials said, operated too closely to GPS frequencies that caused overbearing transmission interference, according to their own in-house research and studies conducted by the Federal Aviation Administration.
"Substantial federal resources, including over $2 million from the [Federal Aviation Administration], have been expended and diverted from other programs in testing and analyzing LightSquared's proposals," Transportation Department Deputy Secretary John Porcari told a House subcommittee last week.
In an interview with The Washington Times late last year, Mr. Ahuja said his company aimed to "fundamentally transform the way in which American consumers get telecommunications services." Part of that "fundamental transformation" would be to cut cellphone bills by more than a third by acting as a kind of neutral supplier of its wireless network to prospective customers such as electronics retailer Best Buy.
LightSquared employs 350 people at its main headquarters in Virginia and "hundreds and hundreds" of engineers and contractors.
Market reaction to the news of LightSquared's rejection was swift.
Rival, Clearwire Corp., a 4G mobile broadband service provider out of Bellevue, Wash., saw its market shares rise more than 3 percent Wednesday in the wake of the announcement.

Special needs children and their families
NASHVILLE (BP) – In theory, everyone is welcome at church. In practice, that's not always true for some children. And when parents feel their child isn't welcome, the entire family often stays home.
The term "special needs" describes people who have developmental delays, cognitive disabilities, physical challenges, and social or emotional differences. Children with special needs as well as their parents and siblings benefit from being part of a church family for the same reasons all families do.
These families need to know God offers salvation through Jesus Christ, of course. But they also need the hope, support, respite and acceptance that come from being part of a church family. They appreciate the simple joy of showing up to participate in something without making an appointment, filling out paperwork, setting goals and constantly evaluating progress.

Benchmarks show modest performance gains with Apple's new Retina MacBook ProsApple's new Haswell-powered Retina MacBook Pros have started finding their way into the online score aggregator for popular benchmark suite Geekbench, less than 24 hours after their unveiling.
Backed by Intel's latest silicon, the new MacBook Pros — which first began showing up in late June — achieve similar gains to those notched by the MacBook Air after its Haswell refresh. The laptops' appearance on the site was first noticed by MacRumors.
Single-core scores, which measure performance using only a single CPU core, average 3108 for the 15-inch model and 2823 for the 13-inch variant. Those scores represent modest increases of four and two percent, respectively, over the previous generation.
Despite the moderate upgrade in performance, Tuesday's hardware refresh was still rather significant. Moving to the new Haswell architecture, alongside efficiency improvements courtesy of OS X Mavericks's new power management features, allowed both the 13- and 15-inch models to make battery life gains, increasing to nine and eight hours, respectively, on a single charge.
The 13-inch model also slimmed down to the same 0.71-inch thickness as its larger-screened sibling, while both variants dropped $200 off of their base configuration price tag (Mac Price Guide).
Additionally, Apple introduced faster 802.11ac wireless networking and PCIe-based storage, and provided for expansion by equipping the laptops with twin Thunderbolt 2 ports.
On Topic: MacBook Pro
- Thunderbolt 3 spec announced with support for USB-C connector, transfer speeds of up to 40Gbps
- Apple adds 5K support to MacBook Pro as target display mode remains absent for Retina iMac
- This week on AppleInsider: New Macs, Apple Watch update, TV plans & more
- Deals: $400 off 2014 15" MacBook Pros & mid-2015 15" MacBook Pros at the lowest prices

D. Orlando Ledbetter - Staff
Sunday, May 21, 2006
Now that most key free agents have signed, the draft is over and most minicamps completed, it's time for some analysis.
NFL fans can reflect on whether Vince Young is the next big thing or if Jay Cutler will flop like the last SEC quarterback taken high from a losing program --- Kentucky's Tim Couch.
Here's a look at the five best and worst offseason moves:
Best moves
1. Steve Hutchinson, OG, Vikings. Became the highest-paid guard in the league when he signed a seven-year, $49 million deal. He'll fit in well with center Matt Birk, who's coming back from a hip injury, and left tackle Bryant McKinnie. "Their offensive line, with him, becomes one of the best in the league," said Billy Devaney, the Falcons' senior personnel executive.
2. John Abraham, DE, Falcons. Falcons GM Rich McKay and Devaney, who played a major role in engineering the Abraham trade and the move up to draft Jimmy Williams, outmaneuvered Mc-Kay's old buddy Tim Ruskell and Seattle to make the deal happen. When the Seahawks raised the ante, Atlanta found Denver willing to deal one of its first-round picks, which the Jets were demanding as compensation. Instead of getting a green rookie with the 15th pick, the Falcons ended up with a three-time Pro Bowl player.
3. Shaun Alexander, RB, Seahawks. The Seahawks had to re-sign Alexander. Take away his productivity and Mike Holmgren is left with an average quarterback and a mediocre receiving corps. Alexander makes the Seahawks special.
4. Edgerrin James, RB, Cardinals. Coach Dennis Green and VP of football operations Rod Graves got the Bidwell family to spend some loot, a major accomplishment. James gives the Cardinals a rushing attack to go with a talented receiving corps.
5. Reggie Bush, RB, Saints. New Orleans couldn't have gone wrong here after the Texans gifted Bush to them. "There are not that many guys that can change a game single-handedly," Devaney said. "All of this bunk about he's not a full-time back --- if he carries 15 times a game, catches four or five passes, runs back punts and kickoffs --- he's going to do a lot of damage. They said the same thing about Marshall Faulk when he came out because of his size. They weren't sure if he was a full-time guy, but he's going to the Hall of Fame."
Honorable mention
> Saints stabilize quarterback position by signing Drew Brees.
> Arizona drafts its quarterback of the future in Matt Leinart at No. 10.
> Colts sign clutch kicker Adam Vinatieri as a free agent after Mike Vanderjagt's playoff choke.
> Browns sign center LeCharles Bentley to anchor line.
> Panthers get wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson to play opposite Steve Smith. But can he
Worst moves
1. Terrell Owens, WR, Cowboys. Just look at the track record. He's going to suck the life right out of the Cowboys --- just like he did in San Francisco and Philadelphia. It just a matter of time before this time bomb explodes in Dallas. The only question is whether he's going to stomp on the star at midfield before he's shown the door.
2. Adam Archuleta, S, Redskins. Falcons fans remember this guy. He was the one giving chase, getting juked and missing tackles in the 2004 NFC divisional playoff game when Atlanta rushed for 327 yards, the fourth-highest team total in NFL playoff history. The Redskins overpaid (six years, $30 million).
3. LaVar Arrington, LB, Giants. The few plays he makes are not worth the tradeoff of his freelancing and mental mistakes. If the Giants can get him to settle down and play their scheme, maybe this one works out.
4. Antwaan Randle El, WR, Redskins. The Redskins snatched up the Super Bowl hero from the Steelers. He wanted to play for the Bears, his hometown team, but the Redskins threw too much money at him. He signed a seven-year, $31 million deal that included a $10 million signing bonus. 'Skins owner Daniel Snyder has overpaid for a player who's considered a No. 3 receiver and punt returner.
5. Mario Williams, DE, Texans. Maybe Williams turns out to be a solid pro, plays 10 to 12 years and makes seven or eight Pro Bowls. But unless he's the next Deacon Jones or Reggie White, this was a bad move. "He's going to be a great football player, but the other kid [Reggie Bush] changes the game," Devaney said.
Honorable mention
> Bills reach to take Ohio State safety Donte Whitner too early (No. 8) in the first round.
> Packers overpay for Charles Woodson, who's lost a step since suffering a knee injury in 2004 and is coming back from a broken leg.
> Titans lock Steve McNair out of the weight room after he's been a good soldier for them his entire career.
> Browns trade Trent Dilfer, leaving them with an unproven young quarterback and no real backup in Ken Dorsey.
> Bills sign wide receiver Peerless "I hate y'all" Price and actually give him a signing bonus.
Wait and see
> Daunte Culpepper, QB, Dolphins. Sent packing by Minnesota just one season after throwing 39 touchdown passes. If Culpepper makes it back from a severe knee injury and plays 10 to 12 games, the Dolphins make out fine. If not, it's still OK because they gave up only a second-round draft pick. If the three-time Pro Bowler is ready to play, he's a major upgrade. Culpepper would give the Dolphins their first legitimate quarterback since Dan Marino retired in 1999.
