The interneLocation is excellent in terms of its closeness to all the sights including the Campo; however, because I was there over the weekend, it was really really noisy outside! In fact, the noise never stopped till 5 a.m. Friday night. But the staff is excellent. The rooms are really clean and pretty. The internet is the best of all the places I've stayed in--just great.

LOS ANGELES — McDonald's Corp. is trying to put the fast back in fast food.
Amid slowing sales and service, the world's largest burger chain is banking on a third drive-through window to speed things up.
Currently, patrons in cars pull up to one window to pay for their order, then pick up their meal at another window.
But starting next year in new and rebuilt restaurants, McDonald's will implement what it calls a Fast Forward Drive-Thru. The arrangement will allow customers whose orders aren't ready to bypass the second window and pull up to a third window to wait.
"This test, along with other recent additions like double-lane and side-by-side drive-throughs, will enable us to better serve more customers quickly with the fast, friendly service they have come to expect from McDonald's," spokeswoman Lisa McComb said in a statement.
McDonald's says that its first drive-through opened in 1975 near an Arizona military base, serving soldiers prohibited by their superiors from leaving their cars while in uniform.
Back then, fast-food restaurants derived roughly 40 percent of their sales through drive-throughs, according to John A. Gordon, principal with Pacific Management Consulting Group.
Now, as the car culture has boomed and consumers increasingly seek out convenient ways to eat, "easily two-thirds of their sales" come through the windows, he said.
Patrons also tend to order more from their vehicles, often getting food for fellow passengers or to deliver to others at home or work, Gordon said.
"Drive-throughs are so critical to their business model," Gordon said of quick-service outlets. "People are lazy and might not want to get out of their cars."
But McDonald's is running behind its rivals in the drive-through line.
An annual report from industry publication QSR magazine in October showed cars waiting 189 seconds between ordering and pickup at McDonald's, falling behind the 134 seconds at Wendy's, 158 seconds at Taco Bell and 181 seconds at Taco John's. It beat out chains such as Burger King and Chick-fil-A.
McDonald's average performance was its slowest ever. Researchers attributed some of the industrywide slowdown to more complicated menu items and an increase in the average number of vehicles in line at any given time.
Jeff Stratton, president of McDonald's USA, told investors this week that "internal challenges" this year included the seemingly interminable launch of new products and limited-time offers. The "cadence of change" probably slowed service, Stratton said.
"In retrospect, I probably would have taken a little more time on that," he said.
In recent months the chain has debuted McWraps, a blueberry pomegranate smoothie, Egg White Delight McMuffins, Fish McBites and Mighty Wings. Then there's the updated Dollar Menu, which includes meals priced as high as $5.
"While the balance between our core products and new menu news was right, the pace of product introduction, in my opinion: too fast," Stratton said.

With few signs of homegrown Silicon Valleys on the horizon, Gulf states are spending billions more to attract high-tech knowhow, Part II.
June 10, 2009 12:15 by Ian Munroe
Indeed, creating new Silicon Valleys takes legions of highly specialized workers, which emerging technology producers like China and India are churning out by the hundreds of thousands each year. But the entire Middle East lacks its own world-class technical institutes. So a growing number of the Gulf's rich petro states are courting tech-savvy Indian and North American universities to set up local branch campuses nearby.
One is the University of Waterloo (UW), a Canadian institution famous for spurring high-tech startups like Research In Motion, creator of the ubiquitous Blackberry. UW plans to set up two engineering programs in Dubai this fall, al-though a permanent home for its campus is being built in Abu Dhabi.
"There are a lot of entrepreneurial activities on campus," says Leo Rothenburg, UW's acting dean of engineering. "It's not uncommon that our students graduate and already have businesses started. … We intend to bring that same spirit to the United Arab Emirates."
Further up the coast, Qatar's new 14-square-kilometer Education City development already hosts a handful of engineering programs from Texas A&M university, and a computer science program from Carnegie Mellon. The billion-dollar complex dispatched its first round of graduates last year, but many of the students that have enrolled so far have been foreigners. Even though university education is free for citizens of the tiny, petroleum-bathed country, tertiary enrollment for Qataris hovers around 20 percent – a third the rate of most high-income countries.
"They're starting slowly, but with confidence and quality," says Hady Amr, director of the Brookings Doha Center, the Qatar branch of a prominent, Washington-based think tank that was established last year, a few kilometers from Education City.
When asked how close the Gulf has come to cultivating its own technology-export industries, he says: "They're preparing the ground, so that one day those seeds can be planted."
"If you want to see the results of these things, call me in 10 years."

I am a high energy, fun person. I am looking for someone to have adventures with, first as friends and if something more, then that is awesome too. I can also just chill at times, especially on lazy sunny afternoons. I enjoy people that are grounded, intelligent and funny. I think laughing with each other is the most important thing. I am not one for the club scene, I would much rather be out in the sun. I am opinionated, loyal, and kind. I love my job, I am a recruiting manager for a healthcare organization, and I have the best team of people I work with. I can dress up, put on heels and do the swank thing, but more often than not you will find me in a pair of Converse, jeans and a t-shirt....did I mention that I have the best job...yes I can go to work like this. I consider myself lucky because I have an amazing family and group of friends. My road has been windy and filled with detours and potholes, but I wouldn't trade any of my experiences they have made me who I am, and I am proud of me.

A June 19, 2015, memorandum providing guidance regarding the care of transgender immigrant detainees has been released.
Here is the propaganda:
The Transgender Care Memorandum reaffirms ICEs commitment to provide a safe, secure, and respectful environment for all those in our custody, including those individuals who identify as transgender, said ICE ERO Executive Assistant Director Thomas Homan. We want to make sure our employees have the tools and resources available to learn more about how to interact with transgender individuals and ensure effective standards exist to house and care for them throughout the custody cycle.
The memorandum includes the following:
Data Systems: appropriate data systems will be updated to record an individuals gender identity, assisting the agency in data collection and informed decision-making.Identification and Processing: comprehensive officer training and tools will be provided to ensure an individuals gender identity can be identified early in the custodial life cycle to ensure care in accordance with the new guidance.Housing Placements: the memorandum includes a voluntary ICE detention facility Contract Modification that calls for the formation of a facility-based multidisciplinary Transgender Care Classification Committee that will be responsible for making decisions related to searches, clothing options, housing assignments, medical care, and housing reassessments for transgender individuals.
It should be noted that the transgender and undocumented protester spoke out of turn on June 24, 2015, five days after the memorandum was allegedly signed by Executive Associate Director Thomas Homan. Wouldn't it have been a better choice for the President to have announced the signing of the memorandum that addressed her concerns, rather than attacking her shamelessly?
And Mr. President, that's the taxpayers' booze you've been drinking at the "People's House" while the rest of your supporters drink the cool aide.

Rep. Roybal-Allard, House Democrats Recap Trip to Family Detention Facilities
Washington, DC Today, Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard (CA-40) joined seven of her fellow Democratic House Members Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer (MD-05), Congressman Joaquin Castro (TX-20), Congresswoman Judy Chu (CA-27), Rep. Raúl Grijalva (AZ-03), Rep. Luis V. Gutiérrez (IL-04), Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (TX-18), and Rep. Zoe Lofgren (CA-19) to recount a trip they took this week to visit two private family detention facilities in Texas used to detain mothers and children awaiting disposition of their asylum claims. The Members are among the 136 House Democrats who recently signed a letter to DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson calling for an end to family detention. Listen to an audio recording of the press conference here.
During their trip, the members met with detainees at the Karnes County Residential Center in Karnes City on Monday, June 22nd, and at the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley on Tuesday, June 23rd, to discuss their experiences, living conditions, and more. At todays press conference, members released videos and pictures they took during their visit, which show women and children pleading for their freedom. Click here to see pictures from the Dilley and Karnes visits. You can also see videos of the Dilley visit here, here, and here.
Congresswoman Roybal-Allards remarks from todays press conference are below.
Id like to start by, first of all, responding to a description that ICE released yesterday about these facilities. And I want to do that by going back to when I was in the State Legislature. And I toured a place that, if I were to describe it, it had a gym, it had a library, it had classrooms where people could get their GEDs and even go to college. It had private rooms. It sounded really, really nice, if you had just gone by the description.
What Im describing is a California State Prison.
Yesterday, ICE released a description of the facilities very similar to what I just described, and if you were just to go by that description, youd say, whats the problem? Theres recreation, theres all these kinds of things. The problem is, as my colleagues have said, they are prisons. And when you go there, theres a playground, but you know what? We didnt see any children playing on that playground. They were holding on to their mothers.
And the stories that you heard from these mothers as to why they came: the stories of rape, of being threatened by gangs not only threatening their own lives, but threatening their children, threatening their parents they had absolutely no alternative.
But one of the things that was the saddest for me was the trauma they described once they got here the treatment that they are getting in these facilities. One mother told me, They treat us like were stupid. They yell at us and they demean us in front of our children, who are already traumatized. And they talked about the fact that any time their child was ill, they were basically told, Well, just go drink some water.
When we were out in the courtyard and we were talking with them, I asked them what was one of their biggest complaints, and one of them said, I cant get help for my daughter. And she showed me what she was talking about. She lifted a two- or three-year-old little girl, and she lifted her dress, and her entire back was just covered in a terrible, terrible rash. And she said, They just told me that its okay, just drink some water.
Another mother, unfortunately, who we met with, and then Zoe got word yesterday that she tried to commit suicide, talked about the fact that her daughter had an infection, and again, they kept telling her, Well, tell your daughter to drink water. Itll go away.
This is happening here, in this country. Because the facility that they are in is a private facility, for profit, and they could care less about the human aspect of those who are there. And that has to stop. We have to get those children out of these facilities.
And I just want to end with this. During one of our private meetings, there was an eight-year-old girl who was just sitting there, and she was drawing as the women were talking about their plight and how long they had been there, what they were experiencing. As I was getting ready to leave, she hands me this. It was something she had been drawing. Her name is Helen. And over here, there are eyes with tears, and it says in Spanish, Quiero ser libre. I want to be free.

"In an exclusive interview, Lilian Oliva Bardales, 19, speaks out about her treatment at a Texas family detention center after she cut her wrist, was put on suicide watch and then abruptly deported." Nincy Perdomo/McClatchy
From Human Rights Watch:
Deportations of non-citizens with drug convictions, and especially with drug possession convictions, increased significantly from 2007 to 2012. In addition to the 43 percent increase in deportations after convictions for drug possession during that period, deportations after convictions for sales, smuggling, manufacture, or trafficking increased 23 percent. For more than 34,000 deported non-citizens, the most serious conviction was for marijuana possession.

The Obama administration's singular goal in deporting women and children asylum seekers is to win at all cost, justice be damned.
From AILA's amicus brief, Matter of M-R-R-, June 2, 2015, now pending at the Board of Immigration Appeals:
Last summer, at a United States Border Patrol station along the U.S.-Mexico border, a parade of Border Patrol agents interviewed Y-F-. Addressing Y-F- directly in Spanish, a government agent told Y-F- that "I am an officer of the United States Department of Homeland Security." He informed Y-F- that "I want to take your sworn statement" and warned Y-F- that "[t]his may be your only opportunity to present information to me and the Department of Homeland Security to make a decision."
Under oath, the agent interrogated Y-F-. "Do you understand what I've said to you? Yes. Do you have any questions? No." On and on the interrogation went. Near the end of the interrogation, the agent asked Y-F- "Why did you leave your home country or country of last residence?" Y-F- responded, "To look for work." The interrogation was memorialized in a writing on the official government Forms I-867A/B Record of Sworn Statement (and the continuation sheet, Form I-831) to be exact.
The testimony was written in a first-person, question-and-answer format which gives it the appearance that it is a verbatim transcription of the interrogation. The writings were sworn to by the government agent who administered the oath and they were even witnessed and counter-signed by yet another agent who attested to having witnessed the entire interrogation. On its face, it all seemed so official, so precise, and so full of due process and normal procedure.
Here's why not: Y-F-s interview, so painstakingly transcribed, sworn, signed and counter-signed, almost certainly never happened in the format in which it was memorialized. The impossibility of the interview, in spite of the DHS officers affirmations of veracity and the rule of government regularity is plain on the face of the writings themselves: Y-F- was three years old at the time he was interrogated.
