Time and Space Are No Big Deal, Thanks to Skype
What has stopped us from being the loving son or daughter, the always by-your-side brother or sister, or the cry-on-my-shoulder best friend? In my case, and maybe yours as well, it is not desire or the capacity to show affection. No, it boils down to nothing more than distance, those physical spaces separating you from … Read more

Rome Shocked - Seems Drafting Of Fifth Chambers Report With Poss Illegalities Not Even At First Base
Posted by Peter Quennell
The Illegalities
These are described in the Maori charges document and explained further in our post below.
In summary, Judge Marasca in his 27 March court ruling and 29 March Corriere interview illegally threw out the March 2013 First Chambers rulings. Plus he illegally accepted the appeal arguments on the evidence which he should not have.
He cannot do that in the sentencing report itself without reprisals being guaranteed.
The Tweet
Our first alert today was this tweet by the most reliable Italy-based reporter on the case.
Andrea Vogt @andreavogt: Italian legal code (Art. 617) requires Cassation court to issue reasoning after 30 days. #AmandaKnox case due April 27. Why the delay?
The Rumor
On checking, word appears to be spreading in Rome that the Fifth Chambers may not even have got to first base.
On April 27 a draft of the report should have been filed with the Cassation Registry. But it apparently isnt even there yet.
The Code
Here are the relevant rules for the Supreme Court.
1. The Original
Art. 628 CPP
1. Conclusa la deliberazione, il presidente o il consigliere da lui designato redige la motivazione. Si osservano le disposizioni concernenti la sentenza nel giudizio di primo grado, in quanto applicabili.
2. La sentenza, sottoscritta dal presidente e dall'estensore, è depositata in cancelleria non oltre il trentesimo giorno dalla deliberazione.
3. Qualora il presidente lo disponga, la corte si riunisce in camera di consiglio per la lettura e l'approvazione del testo della motivazione. Sulle proposte di rettifica, integrazione o cancellazione la corte delibera senza formalità.
2. The Translation
1. Subsequent to the deliberation, the president or the director appointed by him draws up the motivation report. They observe the provisions concerning the judgment in the first instance, as applicable.
2. The judgment, signed by the President and by the writer, is lodged at the Registry no later than the thirtieth day after the deliberation.
3. If the president has done this, the court will meet in closed session for the reading and approval of the text of the motivation. On the proposed rectification, integration or cancellation the court shall act without formalities.
What To Expect?
The only legal and face-saving way out? Admit error, and if there are real grounds, refer the appeal back down to the Florence court.

It's Back!
The 1st fight was awesome because Jeremys shit talking mouth was shut with a nice head kick. War Matt Brown.
2nd fight was one of the best fights I've ever seen on TUF. Sure it was sloppy as hell,but christ it was a war.
I also got mad laughs outta Rampage. His gas joke,and nonstop dancing to close the episode had me laughing pretty hard.
Best episode yet.
WAR Stamos!
Who the fuck is Shogun???
I loved tonights episode. Matt brown is awesome. The clips of the guys talking about Matt Brown like he is Chuck norris. LOL
The second fight, as many of you guys said was very very sloppy but was extremely exciting
matt brown did not look like the same guy as in training, he was gun shy.
jermey may swung his arms like a girl and isnt very good imo.
the 2nd fight was more entertaining but luke gassed.
so far the best fighter looks like jesse and tim.
stud says it best with nice to see may go out with a kick to the mouth. rampage is a trip.....i pick up about every other word. 2nd fight was bangin'....both guys were gassed, looks like wagner has a chin.

"When you submit someone, there is no controversy, there is no doubt, there is only the certainty of the result. You are better than your opponent and he must submit to your technique"
From C.B.'s blog @ mmajunkie:
See? This is what I was talking about. He hated his teamate but was rooting for him all the way because this is a team effort and they needed the win badly.This season you are seeing a lot of fights and not so much house time. I am one of the few people still supporting Jeremy May at this point. Riddle and others are telling me I am crazy and the guy is bad news. I feel like we need a win, and I really do not care who it comes from. In my years of wrestling, I had many teammates with whom I did not see eye to eye, but I needed -- the team needed -- their six points. To me Jeremy was no different. I did not have to love him to want him to win for us. He was not going to get invited to Arizona to hang out with me anytime soon. But he was standing between us having control and not having control. For that reason alone, I was willing to tolerate him and his antics.
It's Back!
I think alot of that was gameplan. I mean when he started letting them go he did great landing. And in his fight to get on the show, Matt was banging. He is one my picks to make it to the final.
Tim, isn't he the BJJ guy? He has no stand up at all from what I have seen. Looks like Lutter. Jesse looks strong. i am ready to see Gerald fight.
Favorite UFC Fighters:
HW-Cigano, Frank Mir, Cain Valasquez
LHW-Machida, Franklin, Jon Jones
MW-Maia, Gouveia, Anderson
WW-GSP, Hazelett ,Diaz
LW-BJ Penn, Huerta, Lauzon
I can't believe how shitty all these guys are... all four fighters last night looked like shit. It's like they are only trying to find guys who look like athletes... none of these guys have skills or cardio.
I think if Tuf keeps going this way the show will be done for in about as season from now.

Release Date :October 28, 2011 Limited
Studio :Image Entertainment

In "The Double", the mysterious murder of a US senator bearing the distinctive trademark of the legendary Soviet assassin "Cassius," forces Paul Shepherdson (Richard Gere), a retired CIA operative, to team with rookie FBI agent, Ben Geary (Topher Grace), to solve the crime. Having spent his career chasing Cassius, Shepherdson is convinced his nemesis is long dead, but is pushed to take on the case by his former supervisor, Tom Highland (Martin Sheen). Meanwhile, Agent Geary, who wrote his Master's thesis on Shepherdson's pursuit of the Soviet killer, is certain that Cassius has resurfaced. As Shepherdson and Geary work their way through crimes both past and present, they discover that Cassius may not be the person they always thought him to be, forcing both to re-examine everything and everyone around them.

I woke up with a slight grin on my face, not because it was Christmas; but because I no longer was showing off my Batman and Batgirl tattoo covering my whole back to everyone I knew. It felt so real; planning on what to get as my first tattoo, getting the tattoo, seeing the tattoo and being completely baffled, my mom laughing at me for getting it then me wanting to remove it afterwards cause it was jus too much ink. In my dream, I didn't know if I was either super drunk or really, really high, but all I know is that when I woke up, I was probably the most happiest kid in the world.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays,
From a Comic Vine Fan in Hawaii!!

Midnight Star first person shooter launches in Ireland before global release
Midnight Star, a long awaited sci-fi first person shooter for the iPad and iPhone, is getting a soft launch on the Ireland App Store before it is released to the rest of the world.
Midnight Star is being developed by Industrial Toys, which is lead by Alex Seropian, a co-founder of Bungie and a major force behind the development of the original Halo game for the Xbox. Midnight Star is trying to solve some of the problems that have affected first person shooter games on a smartphone or tablet by creating an "on rails" experience combined with smart AI and a solid narrative.
So why launch Midnight Star just in Ireland? Industrial Toys says:
We're not picking favorites, it's actually a common practice these days to launch a game in a single territory prior to launching globally. We need to flesh out and destroy any remaining bugs, test the RPG systems to make sure the game loops feel fun, turn some dials, etc. Once we fix and tweak everything to make the game as good as it can be, we will release globally so the entire world can play the game together.
If you live in Ireland, you can download and play Midnight Star right now in the App Store for free, although there are some in-app purchases of game items available.

DUE OUT SEPTEMBER 2007, POE BALLANTINE'S second collection of personal essays follows in the tradition of Things I Like About America. Stories range from "The Irving," which details Mr. Ballantine's diabolical plan to punch John Irving in the nose after opening for him before an audience of 2,000 people that launched the literary festival, Wordstock; to "Wide-Eyed in the Gaudy Shop," which tells how, in Mexico, the narrator met and later married his wife, Cristina; to "Blessed Meadows for Minor Poets," the devastating tale of how after years of sacrifice and persistence, Mr. Ballantine finally secured a contract with a major publisher for a short story collection that never came to fruition. Ever present in this collection of essays are the odd jobs, eccentric characters, boarding houses, buses, and beer that populate Mr. Ballantine's landscape and make his stories uniquely his own. The title story, "501 Minutes to Christ," was included in the Houghton Mifflin anthology, Best American Essays 2006.

Sorry Devil Rays is that better!
What would it take to get Longoria from the D Rays?
This I been watching clips of this guy looks like he might be able to lock down that 3rd wr spot.
:cheers: Here we STAY!!!
Hopefully Torres has some 2010 magic in him!
Besides Belt he is the only one making some noise with the bat it cant hurt to see if it carry's over to the season if he sucks no biggie not like we were expecting much out of left any ways.
Do you guys think Peguero has a shot at starting left field coming out of spring training? He is 3rd in avg and has 4 rbi.
Somebody who can grab those fastballs nice!!
It was ok this was the best run I've ever seen!!
I picked Cousins but I wouldn't mind both being moved.
Rarely drops balls this dude drops more big game balls than anyone! Hell no to Wes!
Hopefully we can get a good CB out of this draft!
I was having a hard time with the loss but when I saw we have 14 draft picks that made me feel a lot better and a whole off season for Kap to get ready as the starter the best is yet to come!!
I just checked they already have Niners and New England favored to make it!
Same for Rogers I hope its his last gm with us!!
Dam I wish we had a better play call at the end spread the field if they blitz like they did one man is open if they dont kap could just run it in!!!!
If this is true the MaGoofs just got 30 mil!!
[QUOTE=nutty;25167822]Yeah, this worries me! They held 2 of the top offenses to 27 combined points. Also, our 2ndary needs to watch out for the deep ball.
I think our offense will be fine...
I hope the team gets sold to a local group :pray:And Seattle and Anaheim gets expansion teams?
This when was last time Bynum played a whole season?
Webber 2.0
This why sun night game sucks you have too wait:jumpy:I cant wait lets go NINERS!!!!
I wish he would of got his **** together you can see that he can be Webber 2.0 now with the new agent he is gone!
The play calling for the run game is genus but the pass play calling they look like Jimmy Raye calling the plays:(

I just wanted to send review about the lovely Londa hotel Spa and Club.
This time last week, I stayed at the hotel having organised a birthday celebration event. The spa, gym, massage etc, definitley enhanced the stay significantly.
Friendly staff, nice facilities and although the weather wasn't piping hot, the spa facilities did much to compensate...i.e using the gym, getting a massage or just simply relaxing in the sauna.
Would definitley recommend and have would have no hesitation to travel there again in the future.

i love it! especially the colors i love red with purple. Purple is my fav color! red, not so much however i like it with the purple. would probably look better if it had a thick black belt around the waist; and even possibly a silver studded bracelet (black) 2 go 4 that rocker look!

i like the colors and the indigo color of the booties. maybe a necklace or if the neckline were a tan bit lower/bejewled then it'd look really good. i don't think she looks horrendous though.

Her booties are fabulous, and the dress fits her nicely. I am not a huge fan of the big print on the dress because I think it is too overpowering and not that flattering. I also wish the neck line was a bit lower.

I voted that I don't like it only bc I wish it had a low collar. It just looks overwhelming w. the high collar but I like the dress in general. Don't care for the hair...

I normally hate peep toe booties, but I think these, the dress, and Leighton are fabulous! the only thing I don't like is that her hair back coupled with the high collar of the dress makes her neck look really short and wierd. but I love the dress and the shoes; and I think it all works well together...

You are at: Sky Vegas >
Vegas Blackjack with 20+ BonusTM is a generous Blackjack game with the American rule:
The Dealer checks for Blackjack early. This rule saves you from adversely risking more money to split or double down. You can double down and hit split Aces to fully cash in on your advantage!
All other American rules apply, including double down on any two cards, double down after splits, and Dealer stands on soft-17.
In Vegas Blackjack with 20+ Bonus, you try to beat the Dealer by accumulating a card value total close to, but not over, 21 points.
Start by placing a bet.
After placing your bets, press the DEAL button to start play.
Playing a Hand of Blackjack
All face cards are worth 10, Aces are worth either 1 or 11, and all other cards are worth their face value. A Blackjack occurs when the card value total of an original hand's first two cards sums to 21 by getting an Ace and a 10-value card.
If the Dealer's face-up card is an Ace, you may be offered the opportunity to place an Insurance Bet against a Dealer's Blackjack. (Whether or not this offer is made is based upon your options settings). If you accept the Insurance Bet offer, this automatically places another bet equal to half of your main game bet. If the Dealer has Blackjack, your Insurance Bet is paid 2 to 1. If the Dealer does not have Blackjack, your Insurance Bet is forfeited and play proceeds.
The Insurance Bet has no impact on the 20+ Bonus award.
If the Dealer's face-up card is a 10-value card, then the Dealer's face down card is checked, but no Insurance Bet is offered. Early checking of Dealer Blackjack is a big advantage for the player since it eliminates risking additional double down bets and split bets to be lost to a late-revealed Dealer Blackjack.
If the Dealer's hand is a Blackjack, then your main game bet is forfeited and the game ends. The exception is when you also have a Blackjack, which is a push, and your main game bet is returned.
If the Dealer's hand is not a Blackjack, then you get to play out your hand. If you are dealt a Blackjack on your first two cards (and the Dealer does not also have a Blackjack), then your hand is an automatic winner and paid 3 to 2. If neither the Dealer nor you have a Blackjack, you are given the opportunity to try to improve the outcome of your hand. Depending on the cards you hold, you may choose one of the following actions:
HIT - You request an additional card. You can continue to request additional cards until you decide to stand or until your card value total is 21 (automatic stop) or until you bust by receiving a card that causes your card value total to exceed 21. If you bust a hand, that hand loses and all corresponding bets are forfeited.
STAND - You request no further cards and play this hand against the Dealer's hand.
SPLIT - If the first two cards in a hand are of the same value, you may press SPLIT to split your cards into two separate hands, which also places an additional bet equal to your initial main game bet. Split Aces are treated like any other split hand. A split hand leading to a two-card value total of 21 is not a Blackjack.
DOUBLE DOWN - On the first two cards in a hand, you may press
DOUBLE DOWN to automatically double your original main game bet and receive exactly one additional card. You may also Double Down on the first two cards of any split hand.
The card value total is displayed on circular plaques adjacent to each hand. As cards are dealt to a hand, the plaque displays an updated card value total. When your hand holds an Ace, the plaque flashes the card value total and the word "Soft." The value displayed is based on counting the Ace as an 11 rather than a 1 (for example, a 5 and an Ace are shown as a "Soft 16").
When comparing your hand versus the Dealer's hand, Aces are evaluated such that they represent the highest possible card value total not exceeding 21.
After you have played out your hand without exceeding 21, the Dealer's hand is played out.
If the Dealer's hand is a Blackjack, then all main bets are forfeited, and the game ends. (The exception is when you also have a Blackjack in which case your main bet is returned.)
If the Dealer's card value total is 16 or lower, additional cards are dealt until the card value total is 17 or higher.
If the Dealer's card value total exceeds 21, then the Dealer busts and any of your standing hands win. Otherwise, the Dealer's card value total is compared against each of your hands. In the case of a tie, this is a push and your bets for that hand are returned.
20+ Bonus (TM) Award
To be eligible for a 20+ Bonus (TM) award, you must place a 20+ Bonus bet before the cards are dealt. (See How to Bet for more details on betting.)
The 20+ Bonus cannot be played on its own. You must make a main game bet of at least the table minimum amount in order to play the 20+ Bonus game.
You win a 20+ Bonus award by getting a 20 or 21 on your first two cards and then standing. The award amount is based on the Dealer's final hand relative to your two-card hand.
If you hit, double down, or split an initial two-card 20, your 20+ Bonus award is forfeit.
A 20+ Bonus award is not paid on a two-card 20 or 21 formed from a split.
An Insurance Bet has no impact on a 20+ Bonus award.
How To Bet
To play Vegas Blackjack with 20+ Bonus, select a chip value by clicking a chip in the middle of the playing field. The chip you select is highlighted by the arrow indicators. To place a bet, click the bet area at the left of table.
Each time you click, you place one chip on the table. If you choose the 20+ side bet add a chip to the 20+ area at the right of the table.
Your bet must be at least as large as the minimum bet and cannot exceed the maximum bet.
After you place your bet, press the DEAL button.
If you wish to repeat your last bet and play immediately after completing a game, press the REBET AND DEAL button. If you have sufficient credits, this button restores your previous bets and initiates play all in one click.
If you wish to repeat your last bet without initiating a new game, press the REBET button. This restores your previous bets. If you wish, you can adjust any bet. You still need to press the DEAL button to initiate play.
To remove a bet from the table, press the CLEAR BETS button.
Should you get disconnected during play we strongly recommend that on reconnection you re-launch the game and ensure any outstanding transactions are completed. Sky Vegas checks periodically and where incomplete transactions are found those games are terminated and any monies owed are returned to the player.

The Federtion has stood up for the little guy in the past, but this was Picard who personally took up the fight, he took his pips off so he was acting on his own.

33 year old man | Orlando, FL, USA | Seeking women 21-31 within 100 miles
Wanted: Partner In Crime :-)
Everyday is a gift meant to be experienced fully. The problem is experiencing life alone is no fun! My friends would describe me as intelligent, loyal, creative, passionate, self-aware, perceptive, quirky funny, AND they are absolutely correct! They will also say that I am stubborn, a pain in the a** and too blunt at times. Yes, they are right about that too! I am a left-handed Aquarius and it shows! I am everyone's best friend but tend to keep a small circle of friends. I feel just as comfortable in a large social event as I do in a small group setting. I find it easy to strike conversations with total strangers and I thoroughly enjoy it. Most of the time, I am laid-back and playful but I know there is a time and place for everything. I am extremely loyal to people I care about and, just like you, I will do anything for them. I find myself more comfortable around open-minded people with a diverse set of interests. People who have a passion for life; a hunger to live a "rich" life in the intangible sense - I have lived in 3 different continents so far and I enjoy traveling every chance I get! Experiencing other cultures has had a huge influence on who I am today. As for what I am looking for in a girl, here are a few qualities I find extremely attractive: genuine, good-hearted, feminine most of the time, fun, close to family, intelligent, and driven. I have learned over the years that relationships take a lot of energy to maintain but the good ones are worth working hard for :-) - Don't you love it when a date just flows naturally; when fun, excitement, and flirty banter are abound? Yeah me too! Unfortunately, dating has become so scripted these days that it's so freaking hard to get a feel for who the other person really is anymore. Don't worry, I am out to change that 1 date at a time LOL If you have made it this far, we may be a good match. So, what are you waiting for?
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Playing sports , Political interests , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Video games , Volunteering , Watching sports
Basketball, Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Football, Golf, Running, Soccer, Tennis / Racquet sports, VolleyBall, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
Some other viewpoint
Blue Martini, Bar Louie, Park Ave, Crave, World of Beer, Enzian Theater, TGIF, Alehouse, Urban Flats....
Favorite Color: Blue Favorite Food: Sushi or Italian Favorite Movie: The Notebook (joking!) prob. Inception Favorite Music: Very eclectic - Anything from MJ to Chili Peppers to Pitbull to Michael Buble...If it has a nice beat, I probably like it!
It all depends on the mood/company. Anything from movies to concerts to chill lounges/bars. I also enjoy playing golf and soccer. I travel at least once a month these days :-) - staying in and watching a movie or HBO is just as enjoyable too :-)
I don't spend as much time reading books as I do reading magazines (Time, Economist...etc.) Positive Intelligence & Freakonomics are some of my favorites.

Gin & Rose Water No. 12 by Tokyo Milk
A linear bombardment of wild roses that have been basking in a warm summer glow, spriteful lemon, sweet key lime, and an aromatic woody scent that lingers somewhere between juniper and cedar. I wish I could bathe in this. It is very rejuvenating.
12th April, 2013


text: I seem to be having a problem with my system lately and it's driving me crazy. For the past two days my monitor has started to blink and make a clicking sounds, exactly as if it were changing resolutions. It does this over and over until my pc locks up and I have to reboot. It will do it at random times, from playing a game to surfing the net, to just booting the system. Then it will be fine for a few hours and it starts all over. I'm using a GeForce 4 TI 4200 and it's worked flawlessly for over a year, as well as my 2 year old monitor. I've tried changing resolutions and refresh rates and I've even rolled back my drivers as well as installing a previous version. If I need to buy another video card, so be it as it's time to upgrade. I'm worried that it may not be a problem with the video card and could be the monitor or even the motherboard so I don't want to go out and get a new card and that not fix the problem. Any suggestions at all? Thanks in advance!

Sanyo Xacti HD700 720p pocket-sized camcorder
Sanyo has launched the Xacti HD700, a pocket-sized, 720p high-definition digital camcorder, and, as is becoming de rigeur, it's the world's smallest and lightest.
The little brother of the previously launched HD100, the HD700 is capable of recording both 720p-quality high-def video and 7.1-megapixel photos to an SD or SDHC memory card.
With an ultra-compact, ergonomic shape, the HD700 is angled at those shooting for web use - video is recorded in iPhone and YouTube friendly MPEG4 AVC/H.264 format.
A quick run down of features reveals "Face Chaser" which does what you'd imagine, 5x optical zoom and a 2.7-inch screen.
The SANYO Xacti HD700 will be available in silver, red and brown in the US at the end of October for $600 with no info as yet on UK/Euro pricing or availability.

Catalogue - BSA Cycles Ltd, Motor Cycles, Overseas Edition, Mar 1951 Reg. No: TL 52049
- Summary:
- Illustrated catalogue listing the key features and specifications of BSA's post-World War II motorcycle models produced for export markets such as Australia. Includes the popular 500 cc single-cylinder side-valve M20 model of which 126,000 were manufactured for the British armed forces during World War II. Also includes the flagship 650 cc twin-cylinder A10 Golden Flash Model, the 350 cc M32 and 500 cc M34 single-cylinder Gold Star models and Competition versions of other standard designs. At the time this brochure was produced BSA was Britain's largest motorcycle manufacturer and one of the market leaders worldwide.
The BSA brandname was derived from the Birmingham Small Arms Company founded in June 1861 in Birmingham, England, by a collective of independent gunsmiths from the Birmingham Small Arms Trade Association. After transforming Birmingham's small arms industry through the introduction of mechanised mass production and standardised components, BSA later diversified it's manufacturing interested, producing bicycles and cycle components from 1869, motor cars from 1908 and motorcycles from 1910. BSA Cycles Ltd was set up as a subsidiary company in 1919, to manufacture both bicycles and motorcycles. BSA motorcycles were sold as affordable machines with reasonable performance for the average private or commercial user. BSA stressed the reliability of their machines and the availability of spares and dealer support. Their designs used a mixture of single and twin-cylinder side-valve (SV) and overhead-valve (OHV) engines offering different performance for various roles.

Looks ***-kicking. I just hope there are several difficulty levels.
In this challenging 2D action platformer, the goal is to increase a sword's power by completing quests for the Smith, the Chemist and the Mage. There are many powers to explore, and some of them combine together to create new hidden abilities. You can only increase your weapon a set amount of times before putting it to the test, so choose your upgrades wisely!

Posted 19 January 2013 - 23:04
You must be 13 if you didn't understand what the man is writing there and is trying to say. I guess you are not old enough to know because you probably were born after Seagal became famous so you don't know the story behind it. It's OK.

Humour is a very...individual thing. What you may find hilarious may be deathly boring for others. Don't be offended, nor flame users should your particular brand of humour differ.

I laughed. But to be fair it was just cause the article itself didn't get anything out of me, but I then scrolled back up and saw the site slogan on their banner.

Rated 3.3 out of 5 by 869 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by PhillyTrip Poor Response Time The location of this hotel is great for any downtown event; however, the staff's responsiviness to our needs was very low. We requested additional coffee and still didn't receive it 2 hours later. In the end we ended up picking it up from the front desk directly. Otherwise, our experience was great and the staff was friendly and apologetic September 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Calico007 food greaaaaat --room could be cleaner The food was fantastic!!!! The halls in the room areas could use a good shampooing--the room rugs also. Valve stem on hot water side in bathroom leaked. September 2, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by gizmo1 This Hotel needs an extensive restoration job We found a bug on the bed, the carpet chair&sofa were stained and dirty.The a/c was filled with black dust The ONLY redeeming quality was the staff who have to constanlty apologize for the hotel's condition. September 2, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Moms1 This location is great for museum visits. The staff is very professional and courteous. An upgrade of this property is underway, and will only improve the hotel features. Can't beat the location for walking to the Barnes Collection, and other parkway museums. September 1, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Bryan0007 Bryan fitzgerald Nice comfortable clean hotel with good views over the city and within walkin distance of most city's sights and attractions I would recommend staying here for a city break Only issue I had was I woke to no running water to wash or shower I went down to from desk and reported it maintenance did a great job restoring water to my room by 1130am so I could have a shower before I checked out at 12 o clock August 31, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Jfpgh Outstanding, friendly and responsive staff Spent four nights at Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown Hotel with a convention group. Easy self parking, and quick check-in at 2:30 pm, John was very welcoming. Outstanding service during meetings and group meals (Lisa), with the food better than average. Grapefruit juice, bacon and prime rib were A+, Fast and efficient elevators, waiting just a few minutes from 20th floor. Personal guest room had multiple issues, non-functioning electrical outlet in bathroom, plumbing issues with sink and toilet, non-working iron -- all were corrected promptly by courteous staff. Too bad these were overlooked in regular maintenance prior to my arrival. But at least future guests will not have these inconveniences. Poor in-room internet connection, sat by elevator bank for several hours each night. Staff apologized nightly for sporadic internet signal. Awakened by loud, inefficient a/c unit. Sagging bed/mattress, lumpy foam pillows and duvet. Parking was reduced for group rate, but not comparable to weekend rates in neighboring garages. Overall pleased with convention service, disappointed in personal aspects of stay. Complete opposite of my expectations. August 29, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by albert4904 you have excellant help great hotel but should have safes in rooms. August 28, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Atraveler123 Helped when i desperately needed it I recently wrote a horrible review on the university Sheraton down the street. I was coming in from a red eye flight and was exhausted. I was met with the worst customer service at the other Sheraton so I called this Sheraton to transfer hotels. I was practically in tears and the man at the front desk at this Sheraton completely turned my day around. He was so incredibly nice and accommodating and made sure I had everything I needed. I am so thankful for great customer service and this experience shouldn't go without recognition. August 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JoeDE The hotel has the most friendly and helpful staff We were only there one night to attend a concert. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. Their recommendation for dinner was perfect. The room was very clean and comfortable, though the bathroom could use updating. The location was perfect. I expect a lot from Starwood hotels and this one did not disappoint. I would definitely recommend it. August 23, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Maryland14 Large hotel downtown Philly This hotel is large and centrally located in downtown Philly. The room we stayed in was spacious. The restaurant/ bar area was not fully staffed and there were long waits just to put in an order. The rest of the hotel was excellent. It was a good 2 night stay. August 20, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Dirtyroom01 Unsatisfactory stay The room we where given the carpet was so dirty I would not take off my shoes the bath tub looked like they were wash cars in it.. I request to change rooms and they did but the new room wasn't much better... I asked why the sheets where not changed and they told me that they were going green and the only why they would change the sheets is if you request them to...now that was crazy..and the price was out of this world and so not worth it.. I was so disappointed and ready to came home... The construction was ridiculous...such a waste of money.. August 19, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Annoying Several Stays The fire alarm goes off consistently. I have not received my starpoints for "Make a Green Choice" for my last 3 stays (4-5 days each). The facilities are not continually cleanly. August 19, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by LilyPoppy Housekeeping issues but excellent staff responsiveness Stayed for an extended weekend and will stay here again next time iI visit Philly. First room assigned smelled like vomit and had an air purifier going on (not very effective I must say). Second room assigned was a smoking one (when we pointedly asked for a non-smoking). Third room smelled nice and fresh. One of the beds was missing the thin comforter, there were no hand towels and the bathroom floor had some sticky dark stuff all over. Nevertheless the response of the guest services staff was excellent in dealing with the issues, so I'll definetely stay here again August 19, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by JohnW63 Nice Hotel, but currently encountering renovations The hotel rooms are nice, spacious and comfortable. Currently, the restaurants/bars are under construction, which provides for limited options in the hotel. Nonetheless, it is in a great location that has much to offer. August 18, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Vespasian Perfectly adequate if not exceptional I've started coming to Philadelphia semi-regularly on business, and this was my third stay at this Sheraton in the past 14 months. It is an older hotel, but I have always found it to be perfectly adequate for my purposes and a good alternative to some of the more expensive properties nearby. Still, I am wavering on whether or not to stay here next time for reasons I'll get to shortly. Pros: Comfortable rooms and good bedding. I really appreciate the thermostat in the room that allows you to select a specific temperature as opposed to "warmer" and "cooler." Staff is not overly friendly but not rude either. I would call them professional and certainly met my expectations. Good room service. The salmon is excellent. Good fitness center. Cheaper than many nearby properties. Cons: It is older, though that really doesn't bother me. Yes, there are stains in the carpet. I don't think this is a big deal, though some people seem to be turned off by it. Lastly - and this is the one that has me reconsidering for next time - it is apparently quite common for the fire alarm to go off. I was just sitting down to breakfast in the hotel restaurant on the morning of August 13th thinking I had plenty of time when sure enough the fire alarm went off and everyone had to evacuate. This was about 6:50 in the morning. By the time the all clear was given to return to the hotel I had to rush in and eat my breakfast - now completely cold - in about two minutes so I could make my meeting in time. This was annoying because the breakfast was fairly expensive. I would normally chalk this up to a fluke and "life happens," but I overheard a housekeeper mention this was the fourth time in six months this has happened while she was working, sometimes in the middle of the night. It seems unlikely to me that guests would pull the fire alarm for kicks this often, so I am guessing something is triggering false alarms. For a business traveler who needs to be "on" it isn't good to have it in the back of your mind that there is a roughly 1 in 40 chance you could be aroused from your bed in the middle of the night by a wailing fire alarm. For this reason I am considering another hotel next time. Still, all in all I would give this hotel a cautious, if not enthusiastic recommendation. August 17, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Feeder Service I called two days earlier to request fridge raider for myself into coworker reason why I have that allergy and I tried it with allergy medication upon my arrival I check with the front desk will then confirm to me that there was no record showing that I had requested the fridge either for myself or my fellow colleague I was vary disappointed for the week that I was here I went without fridge I had to throw out my meds August 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by sgardens Super stay in Philly The staff was amazing! From bartenders to concierge, best staff I've seen in a long time. August 14, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by kt101 Always a perfect stay! The staff here is exceptional, always smiling and always taking the extra step to make your stay perfect. August 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by werfamily This hotel has great features Beautiful hotel , within walking distance to local attractions .Large rooms (no refridgerator or microwave ) Flat screen TV Could not use guide to search for programs , had to look up channels in book provided . Air conditioner a bit confusing , thermostat on wall not in inside window unit , housekeeper showed me how to use. Excellent staff ,very friendly . August 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Michael8383 Friendly staff, clean and comfortable. Staff was incredibly courteous and helpful. Room was clean and would stay here again. Hotel restaurant food was good. August 11, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Nothappywithstaff You pay for what you get... The title says it all. The cheap room price is representative of how staff treat you and the quality of the over all hotel. The rooms are outdated, not comparable to the west coast or larger major cities at all. everything is old. Some staff were ok, but others were just rude, and forgetful. I was a vendor at one of the ballrooms and I asked if I could pointed to a bell cart. One, very young boy in a suit said "Oh, I'll bring one up to you sir" and after I packed everything up, which took me about 40 minutes, there was no bell cart in sight. They forgot about me. Another person at the front desk told me I had to carry everything upstairs when I stumbled in through the front doors, exhausted from carrying the over-sized boxes. I didn't even get "would you like me to help you with that?" Overall, it may just be how Philly people do it out there, but there's something this hotel, and its staff could get a lesson on, such as hospitality. After all, this is your so-called expertise, is it not? August 11, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by fratkid21 Not SPG Quality This hotel should not bear the Sheraton name. It is not up to the quality. Several items in my room were broken: shower faucet, sprinkler system, air conditioner, and the outlets on the walls were missing face plates. The towel rack on the wall was falling off. More importantly, the carpet in the hallways were dirty and stained. The inch of carpet along the walls (all the way down the halls) were caked with dust. The wall paper was peeling off of the walls. This was the most disgusting SPG property I have ever seen. The Sheraton name should be removed until this place is renovated. August 11, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by GWYNYC Centrally located and very comfortable This is our 2nd time at this hotel, it is in a good location and parking is convenient and inexpensive. This time around we had spectacular view and when we had an issue with our room key the responsiveness was quick and efficient. Check in took forever because a group came in, but they were handing out water bottles and tried to keep everyone happy. I did not rate the food because we ate out. August 11, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Pots802 Great Place for a conference The hotel hosted a conference and all of the conference spaces were nice. they did a good job of setting the rooms up and having them ready in time for all the attendees. August 11, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by lukewarm This hotel is okay, not great. I tried to rent a movie and waited 10 minutes for it to load and then called the front desk to let them know. I had to wait 10 more minutes on the phone before I spoke with someone. By then, I didnt have time to watch the movie. They took the movie fee off my account, but wasn't particularly apologetic. Cleaning services was very nice. Room was spacious. It was a good 10 minutes from the conference I was attending at the convention center. August 7, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by HJL62 Okay Waht was good was complimentary WIFI. Bad was that due to reconstruction, no bar where on could get a cold beer in the evening. August 7, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by T07312014 Facilities and service not commensurate with price Spacious and reasonably responsive front desk staff. BUT: No bath mat 1st day (maids forgot?), tea bags not replenished in time, no safe nor mini refrigerator/cooler in room at such a high room rate. The breakfast restaurant staff seemed stressed and unresponsive. August 7, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by zyxwvut This hotel needs an upgrade I was a participant in a large convention that included several other Philly hotels. I chose Sheraton because of my SPG status. The room was clean, but its features were dated. The phone didn't work, but I only found that out on the last day of my stay. The open food service in this hotel was extremely limited, though the food that was part of one of the conference events was creative and tasty. The wine served was barely drinkable--never finished my glass. August 7, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by leaf456 Not up to Sheraton standards From check-in to check-out, I continued to run into problems and unpleasant experiences. The hotel was run-down and dirty.My room was not ready at 3 pm check-in and I was oddly pressured to accept a different type of room instead (and I refused). My room was dirty throughout when I did eventually get into it and housekeeping did not service it well each day. I had to asked for room amenities that were supposed to be standard. The Club lounge was shabby, dirty, poorly-maintained, lacked even minimal amenities and the staff (when someone actually was there) was rude -- they could be heard to complain about other guests and about management. The hallways carpets had the same pieces of lint, dirt and bits of paper throughout the five days, indicating that it did not see a vacuum cleaner. I was served undercooked food in the restaurant after waiting a long time to be seated in the empty space. The front desk staff with one notable exception was not professional. At checkout, I was comp'd one of my 5 nights for the series of inconveniences (without my even asking for it by the only staff member who seemed to be trained and interested in the guest experience); however, that did not make up for the dreadful condition of the hotel. This place needs a total revamp of facilities and staff. August 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by proffffas conference hotel great meeting space; classic conference hotel. Staff was over the top in trying to accommodate you -- especially the concierge desk . The restaurant for breakfast was beyond horrible -- cold eggs, coffee had to ask for, poor service; other bistro option was in renovation. Rooms were absolutely fine but would have preferred to have continual fan running to cut noise in hall and not have on and off AC -- woke me up a few times. overall, staff excellent, food service needs improvement. GREAT location near Barnes, walk to Phil Museum of Art, 20 min walk to Liberty Bell. August 6, 2014

BIG D : Is a term used to describe a very muscular male , the D is said to stand for DAN an english slang term for '' A BOSS OR A PLAYER '' , and so when you combine the two words BIG & DAN they result in a muscular young man , this term is often used in London UK , but is a popular word spreading on the streets of england.
