Branding is the thing these days. There is expert advice to be had on how to brand every imaginable entity, including ourselves. Apparently, the way a company brands itself, the way you brand yourself, determines success or failure. Which is all for the good but your parents are sure to have passed on this wisdom by encouraging you to try your best and to look your best at all times. And I ask myself whether, in matters artistic for one, the stress that is placed on branding uniqueness doesn't in fact undermine the gains to be derived from collaborative effort. There is something to be said for having a herd mentality. This is the thought which struck me as I 'debriefed myself' about what I had experienced at two festivals held in Nairobi earlier this year.
The first was the Storymoja Hay Festival which took place at the National Museum between the 13th and the 16th September. It was billed as a literary festival and its target group was avowedly elitist. Initially, it had begun as simply the Storymoja Festival, the brainchild of writer Muthoni Garland, underwritten purely by local funding but, thereafter, it was branded to become part, as the only African exponent, of Hay Festivals worldwide, with imprints also in Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and Asia. This new branding made for major, outside funding and an increased scope to bring international heavyweights to Kenya: Writers like Juan Jang, author of the blockbuster Wild Swans about repression in maoist China, who gave the inaugural Wangari Maathai lecture at the festival. Also in attendance was rising star Dinaw Mengestu, an American born in Ethiopia. And for one, last example to avoid giving an exhaustive list, I myself, as a featured playwright on the programme, also had the opportunity to interview Giles Foden who wrote The Last King of Scotland in reference to Uganda's Idi Amin Dada, famously made into a film starring American actor Forrest Whittaker. Apart from myself as a local writer, others like Tony Mochama and Rasna Warah were featured, including a star turn by Miguna Miguna in the wake of the publication of his controversial memoir Peeling Back the Mask. Sitawa Namwalie revived her rapturously received set of social commentary, poetry readings Cut Off My Tongue.
The second was the South Asian Mosaic of Society and the Arts, better known by its acronym, SAMOSA. Its fifth incarnation as a cultural festival was an object lesson in organisational skills, thanks to festival director Farrah Nurani and her team, who did an admirable job of mobilising manifold, private sector sponsorship, making it truly bigger and better than ever before. There was an obvious effort to cut across social strata by offering something for everybody at venues dotted across the city and at relatively affordable prices. The Sidi Goma Dance Troupe made up of Indians with centuries-old African blood flowing through their veins, came all the way from Gujerat not only to entertain but also to interact and entertain with kindred souls from Kenya. There was, indeed, a glitzy opening ceremony at The Tribe hotel; but there was also a mobile cinema van that took films to the slum areas of Mathare, Kawangare and Kangemi. A group of actors travelled from Mombasa to perform the latest offering by award winning Kenyan playwright Kuldip Sondhi at the National Theatre. Racially mixed cricket teams played against each other in a tournament within the newly rehabilitated Karura forest. And, there were concerts by firelight in the Kenya Cultural Centre grounds opposite the Norfolk Hotel and a fusion music concert in the Karura Forest. Performances were complemented by excellent catering and stalls with affordable but very high quality mementos. The SAMOSA brand was evidently growing and growing stronger and stronger by the year.
This was all very splendid. Yet I couldn't help but note that the SAMOSA festival was held about a fortnight after the STORYMOJA HAY one. Now, if the other element which comes with branding is consistency or 'tradition,' then it seems that if the festival dates are to be retained from year to year then these two brands will seem to be forever in competition, in the manner of Coca Cola and Pepsi. Which to my mind, is not entirely necessary. Would not have collaboration served to offer a more intellectually edifying product to a greater number at a cheaper price, all round? For instance, the people who paid 2,000 Kenya shillings to see Cut Off My Tongue would have gained immensely from seeing the Sidi Goma Dancers, whose show was seen by some for only 500 shillings. Since art comes at a cost, perhaps a price of, say, 700 shillings per ticket could have been arrived at, which Nairobi audiences have more or less become used to and, therefore do not consider as being exorbitant. And, vanity of vanities, had readers of AwaaZ been enticed to come in droves to the Storymoja quotient, then I would have loved to interact with them and to get a firsthand reaction to what I write from my readers; rather than continuing to do so, issue after issue, year after year, in a relative vacuum.
I must confess that I do not have a degree in business studies, nor do I have any real understanding of marketing strategy. But I do have a recollection of something else that I was taught as a child: 'TEAM is….Together Everybody Achieves More.'

We loved the ambiance of the little cabins away from everything. It's rustic... So if you are looking for the Hilton, this isn't the place for you. The cabins are adorable... And had everything we needed. I am an alpaca lover... And was a little disappointed that they weren't friendly enough to come up to the fence... So we really didn't get to interact with them. We stayed on a cloudy winter night, so we didn't get to see the stars... But we were definitely away from the lights of the city. I'm sure that on a clear night, it's beautiful. I would stay again and suggest it to anyone that wants something just a little off the beaten path!

It was a birthday surprise for my girl friend. She was so happy and we both loved it. We just wish that we could have enjoyed a nice walk on the trails, but the gnats were so bad. There bad everywhere. We have them at home. I think we will be coming back in the winter and do a little hiking. Thanks for everything. Beautiful cabin. Larry and Debbie.

It was nice secluded; however outside upkeep could have been better. Inside of the cabins was nice. Bathroom could have used some work. It is a whirlpool bathtub possibly could fit 2 small people.

We spent the night in the cabin with another couple and had a lot of fun. We went into Galena to have a great dinner and listen to a little live music. If the weather had been better, we would have enjoyed using the grilling area with the fire pits and picnic tables. All four of us would like to go back again.

My wife and three year old son spent a wonderful few days at the Galena Log Cabin Getaway. The cabins were lovely! They were clean, the staff was very friendly and very informative. I didn't put marks for dining as they do not offer this service. Do yourself a favor, getaway to Galena!

This was a nice getaway for us and our dog. The woods were a great place to walk and see nature. Belle loved walking in the woods. The cabin was a welcome change from your normal "cookie cutter" hotel. Close to Galena but just far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet. Alpacas are adorable! Will be back again .

Log Cabin getaway was sufficient. If you are looking for cheap and OK accomodations this is the place. Log cabin cute and adequate, beds were good, however couldn't keep the fireplace going and the coffee maker was not in working order. Also, poor lighting made it difficult to read. The breakfast consisted of a banana , yogurt and a really bad packaged sweet roll. It was neat to have an alpaca peering in our kitchen window in the morning. Never seen that before!

The cabins were quaint, and the setting was okay, personally, I would have liked it better if the pasture was not right up against the cabins. It made it seem like we were in a feed lot. Ruth and Frank were very nice. I am also sure that they are right in line with the rest of the area, price wise, but I did not feel that the cabins were worth what we paid.

My Husband and I finally got to make our first trip out to Galena and we stayed in the cabins. We loved them they were very cute and quaint very well maintained. The breakfast baskets were nice just enough to get you up and going in the morning. The property owners are very nice and helpful also very willing to make your stay with them as comfortable as possible. The cabins were very clean and have everything you need for a relaxing getaway.

This was a wonderful place and our only regret was that we did not have enough time off to stay longer. The cabin was lovely with comfortable beds covered in gorgeous quilts and even smelled fabulous, and the alpacas and puppies are adorable. The whole place is delightfully quiet and out of the way while at the same time only a short drive to all the activities the region of downtown Galena and surrounds has to offer.

The staff were extremely friendly and pleasant, which is what is needed at 5 am when you need a cup of coffee.
Nice place to stop for an iced tea in the summer to re-hydrate after walking around the seaport. Plan on a meal somewhere else as they have typical Dunkin food which is fine, but try the local seafood places for a really nice experience
The coffee, muffins, and doughnuts at Dunkin' Donuts are consistently good. Love their coffee. Have bought pods for my Keurig - pricy, but sometimes you need a treat.
We all like DD coffee and stopped in to this one a few times while staying in Mystic. The service was quick and the coffee was fresh!
This D&D is attached to a gas station. They got my order wrong but was quick to fix it and the staff was very nice.
the kids working there could be faster but they are kids so do not expect much. They do try hard!! Duncan Donuts is Duncan Donuts so the service is what counts.
great place to hang out, watch tv, work on your PC on some comfy couches, while you wait for the sleepheads to get up and start the day. And you're a hero when you show up at the hotel with donuts!
Had blueberry muffin for breakfast, very moist never had a donut from there I didn't like but in this area Dunkin donuts are jsut about on every corner
This was the first D D we had visited so we had nothing to compare it with.The lad behind the counter was helpful and pleasant but the jelly [ jam] doughnut was not quite as fresh as we would have wished and the coffee was a little weak ,we will however give them another go as the range was eclectic...
I love Dunkin' Donuts. I love everything about the place. Coffee is sublime. I love Dunkin Donuts coffee 100 times more than Staryucks; burnt flavored coffee is just not my thing. The donuts at Dunkin' are terrific. Try the glazed chocolate donuts, a staple from my childhood. The chocolate-cream filled donuts are another personal favorite. Great place!

HQK-1001 belongs to a class of compounds originally discovered at Boston University School of Medicine and licensed to the Company. These compounds, designated as Short Chain Fatty Acid Derivatives (SCFADs), have been shown to stimulate fetal globin expression and red blood cell production in the laboratory and in small clinical trials in patients with hemoglobin disorders, including sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia. HQK-1001 is an orally administered SCFAD, which has shown an excellent safety profile and biologic effects on fetal globin induction and red blood cell production in the laboratory, relevant animal models, and in healthy human subjects in Phase 1 clinical trials. Additionally, the compound has received Orphan Drug Designation in the United States and Europe for both sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia.
Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder affecting the beta globin chain of adult hemoglobin, which results in distorted, rigid sickle red blood cells, which block blood vessels, causing lack of oxygen to tissues, acute episodes of pain (pain crises), lung injury (acute chest syndrome), and strokes. Infections are common, and chronic damage occurs in many organs, including the spleen, bones, kidneys, lungs, brain, and eyes. The sole drug which is approved to treat the disease is a cancer chemotherapy drug, hydroxyurea. The lifespan of sickle cell patients is markedly reduced in the U.S., where there are approximately 75-80,000 patients.
Beta thalassemias are among the most common genetic blood disorders worldwide, in which patients are unable to produce normal amounts of the beta globin chain of adult hemoglobin, with consequent rapid destruction of red blood cells and their progenitors, and moderate to severe, transfusion-dependent anemia. The standard therapies are transplantation and red blood cell transfusions, which cause iron overload an

In a small saucepan, combine coffee, milk and cocoa. Heat the mixture over moderate heat, whisking, until the cocoa is dissolved, and let it cool. Stir in 1/2 cup of the liqueur, pour the mixture into a metal ice tray fitted with the divider, and freeze it until it is frozen solid. The coffee mixture may be prepared up to this point 1 day in advance.
In a blender, blend the frozen coffee mixture with the remaining 1/2 cup liqueur, scraping down the sides occasionally, until the mixture is smooth but still frozen and divide the mixture between 2 stemmed glasses.

Altec Lansing unveils InMotion Classic iPod dock
Altec Lansing, the company which provided the speakers for the Woodstock festival in 1969, now makes a range of iPod docks called InMotion, and they've just announced a new one called the InMotion Classic.
The "Classic" bit appears to refer to the styling - which harkens back to the late 70s and early 80s with sharp angles and clean lines. The big handle which sits on top of the product can even be moved to the top so that the dock takes on the appearance of a (small) boombox.
The dock can hook up to your iPod or iPhone, but also has an auxiliary input for connecting any other audio source. Lastly, if you're tired of your own music, there's an FM radio onboiard with 4 station presets available.
It has a remote control, and carries an internal battery that should last for 6 hours on a 1 hour charge. It's shipping right now, and costs £120 from Apple stores, or £130 from John Lewis and Dixons.

I'm running Windows 7, and it's installed on a 32 GB partition which is currently running low on space (and expanding it is not an option). Windows System Restore takes up several Gigs of that space. Since I like having many restore points available, I don't want to decrease the amount of space available for system restore. So my option is to try and get Windows to save my Restore Points on a different partition. Is that possible?

Not sure about 7, but I know this was not possible in Vista. The system restore file, by definition in the OS, must reside on the system drive. So you're most likely going to have to clear out some restore points or perhaps find other things on that drive you can move, like your Users folder.

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 420 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Mendonsa Things to know about staying here The hotel is above average. Our experience had a few challenges but nothing that was the fault of the hotel. Our room wasn't cleaned one day due to a early cleaning schedule. One thing to watch out for is the shuttle service to Disneyland, it appears to be a separate company and are less than desirable. First of all get to the shuttle stop 15 min. prior to departure and try to get on in order of how you are lined up. Rude people will get there the last minute and jump in front of you. It's worse getting back from Disney. It's a mad rush with lots of pushing. The hotel is better than any of the other cheaper hotels. We stayed with star wood points, if I were to pay cash, I would have stayed closer to Disney but for keeping in the star wood family, this is the place to stay. July 22, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kyle77 Clean Hotel and Great Location I have stayed here several weeks this year and the rooms are always clean. Beds and pillows are comfortable. Housekeeping does a great job keeping the hallways and rooms clean. Pool and hot tub are nice. July 19, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by JessicaP Terrible Experience We arrived at the hotel and waited 20min to be assisted by the doorman. It appeared to be a very busy day and there was only one person on staff. Wethen decided to wait at the bar as our room was not ready yet. Again, waited 15min for a drink as there was only one staff member working. Front desk staff when checking in were friendly but not at all helpful and weren't able to answer basic questions (maybe someone was training as two people were assisting us?). An hour after we arrived in the hotel room another family entered the room. Apparently the family had been assigned our room as well and been given keys. We called and informed the front desk who reported they would take care of it right away. When we called for a taxi we were told there was a 10min wait. We arrived downstairs 10 min later and waited an hour for a cab. Most helpful staff the entire stay however was the evening doorman (I believe his name was Carlos) who chatted with us and was super friendly. We arrived back at the hotel around 1130pm and our keys did not work to the room. When we went down to the front desk, the women assisting us was very unfriendly. There was no apology for the mix-up (again which had supposedly been taken care of). She kept questioning us and seemed to not believe us that it was actually our room despite our things being there. I understand the need to be cautious seeing as they had made a mistake and given the room to two families, however we were told before we left that it was taken care of. She then argued that we weren't actually in the room we were saying we were (300's) and actually in a 500 room. Super confusing and took 20-30min. to get new keys and into our room. Our famly uses Starfriend whenever we travel and typically have great experiences. This is the first time that we have been completely disappointed in our stay. The facilities were good overall but staffing and customer service were very poor. I would not recommend this hotel. July 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Tammy06 Great Service We found the entire staff very friendly and helpful from the front desk to the housekeeping services. The complimentary breakfast in the morning was really good. We ordered room service one evening and that was quick and good and the delivery person was very nice. The room was very clean and spacious. The shuttle service was very convenient and we used it several times a day. Thanks for a wonderful stay. July 14, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by yukidevil not bad Parking was not good for handicap. Not enough stalls. I was willing to park across the street in the Target parking lot. At this visit, I felt the room was not as clean. The staff was awesome!!!!!! July 12, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Travels2much Filthy... The hotel location is prime, and with it being a bit farther from Disney, the rates are commensurate. However the parking situation is dismal, but still shades above the housekeeping staff. Towels would get picked up, none left. And, I would wash my kids' feet when we got back, out of courtesy to the laundry crew by not having little black marks all over the bedding. Much to my utter disappointment, they were dirty again in just a few minutes...the carpets where so nasty I could not even let them play around on the floor!!!! Definitely NOT the norm for the Sheratons I have stayed in. And, it makes me even more disappointed that I spent points on the stay. July 10, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by lm2012 no sweet sleeper bed The club lounge food was good - but no platinum upgrade to the club floor and at least the floor I was on didn't have sweet sleeper beds. July 10, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Clif1 Great experience I stayed with my family for 5 nights from 7/2-7/7. Rooms are comfortable with enough space for a family of 4. In general, location is great with access to Disney, multiple restaurants around the area and there is a Target in front of the hotel. We had access to the club lounge which served good food for breakfast and hors d'oeuvre. I will recommend to have more variety of food during the breakfast time. Gym is nice and clean and offers treadmills and free weights. Pool is small but heated. Parking is $12/day. Overall great experience. Staff in general are very professional and helpful. We will use this hotel next summer. July 9, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by JeJe75 No Club lounge access if you are "only Gold". Poor Service, one bottle of water in room Arrive by 9.00 PM, 2 parking attendants doing nothing did not bother with us until I started getting the luggage myself. Reception: As I walked in, the receptionist looked at me and went to do other things and came back a couple minutes later with a box of envelopes for room keys. I guess those were more urgent than servicing me right away. Hey, maybe he had none left for me :). They charge $12 for Parking and $10 for in room internet. Asked about eventual access to Club Lounge, classic automatic refusal because of "near capacity" and "only Gold". Doubtful to me considering that a lot of rooms above mine and at my level are dark, will do a quick check tomorrow morning. But anyway, Truth is, this is probably one of my last time trying to get this marketing ploy. I felt like the receptionist and his manager would not even try to give me a Club access since I am "only Gold". This is when I remember that my other Hotel Chain Gold Status gives me automatic breakfast, internet and club access. Last but not least, small details like only one bottle of water in room for me and my wife, Receptionist not saying where the elevators are nor saying how to access internet. Additional small details that make for a not so good karma at this Hotel. Did not even tried to call nor complain about those. I leave first thing tomorrow morning. July 5, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Fred2012 Not so satisfied with this hotel We tried to check in early on Tuesday the 26 but front female clerk with a snobby attitude advised me that there was going to be an 80+ charge for early check in. It was a tuesday I know they had rooms available and it was only a few hours earlier than the advertised check in time. I don't see the point for charging me extra to check in a few hours early in the room I am already going to sleep in. I advised that I had tried calling in advance to see if I could check in early and advised her that their telephone lines were busy(telephone lines were down at the hotel) to see if I could check in early and she didn't say a word just looked at me. Once again,her, I am doing you a favor for checking you in attitude, came into play. Telephone lines were down for the first day or so. We also had to pay extra for Disneyland Shuttle. Other hotels next door to this hotel have free shuttles, free early check in, and a much friendlier staff. Hotel is ok at best. I will not stay here again, next time I will pay the extra cash for a higher star hotel. Sorry for the choppy writing but I am typing on the go. Bye July 3, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by JohnE Great location and staff This was my first time at the hotel and we had a great time. It is located central to everything and a great value for the quality of the hotel and staff. We stayed on the club level and had a great breakfast every day and their nightly snacks even fulfilled our dinner needs! Can't wait to return. July 2, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by lou2012ala Hotel Not the typical Sheridan rooms nor service. June 29, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Larry83 Staus Means Little I stay at this hotel about 6 times a year since it is the only starwood hotel in the area to utilize my Platinum Level Benefits. I realize that when the hotel is full, as it was recently, there may not be rooms on the Concierge level. However, when I requested a quiet room on my reservation made months in advance, I would hope that I wouldn't receive a room closest to the elevator. When I asked if there were alternatives, I was told at reception that the hotel was sold out. Later the hotel manager offered other rooms, but it was after we had already settled in for the night. we could have staid somewhere cheaper and received the same preference. June 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Kelly33 Great Hotel for the business traveler I stay at this property at least once a month for over the past two years. The staff is always friendly and helpful and the rooms are always spotless. I like the fact that there are no tubs in the room, but a real shower!! The Club room is one of the best out of all the SPG properties that I stay at over the year. Great property, Great Staff and Great Value. It's a winner!!! June 22, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by ReallyDaryl Still good, but not as good as it used to be This is my preferred hotel whenever I'm in the Anaheim area. I discovered it last year and couldn't believe the quality of the hotel I was getting for the price. Unfortunately, it seems as though traveling families have also discovered it and have not been treating it so kind. The common areas are beginning to show the wear-and-tear the comes from families, especially those with young kids. Don't get me wrong, this place is still a great value, just not quite the shining jewel in the Anaheim resort area it once was. Cosmetic issues aside, I noticed some technical issues this visit, specifically with the Wi-Fi. In a nutshell, it would let me pay to connect and then after a few minutes, the Wi-Fi signal would vanish and not return for several hours. Not the end of the world for personal travel, but quite disturbing for business travelers. The front desk tried to address the problem by sending up an ethernet cable, but that shackled me to the desk which defeats the very nature of wireless internet. Long story short, the Wi-Fi problem persisted the length of stay. Speaking of the front desk, the service was a bit off this visit. In past visits I could count on Jason to get me checked in/out in a quick yet friendly manner. This time, there was always a wait to be helped and the staff seemed a bit worn out. Still friendly, but more like they were putting on a brave face. The noises the elevators make make me wonder how many more years of service they have in them. Some of the sounds remind me of Tower over in DCA. I feel totally safe in them, just a little nervous they might need servicing when I need to use them. This was my first visit where I had time to visit the fitness center and pool area. No issues at all with the fitness center, it's one of the better set ups going. The pool area on the other hand left me a bit disappointed. First off, remember to bring your room towel, none are provided at the pool. The pool is heated, but not super warm. The jacuzzi is a bit on the small side and we had to wait a long time until people left and we could climb in. Upon climbing in, the first thing we noticed was the strong smell of chlorine. We're talking make-your-eyes-burn strong. We also noticed a strange brown speckled foam on the surface of the bubbling water. It eventually got sucked into the side drain, but we did have to go out of our way to avoid it. Mind you, this was after 11pm at night so I'm sure it had been many hours since cleaning had been done and the throngs of park goers had really stewed it up in the mean time. So after all is said and done, will I be back? You bet. Unless I have my pup with me. Or I score a killer deal at one of the DLR properties. This place still has way more going for it than working against it right now. And if they can keep up appearances and the Wi-Fi working, I'll definitely continue to recommend to friends and coworkers. June 19, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by StarwoodPreferredGuest I thought I was a Preferred Guest Booked a King online and called to see if it would accomodate a child rollaway after seeing in the posted terms and details that it was no charge (see below). The reservationist confirmed no charge over the phone but upon arrival was told that there was an extra charge for childs rollaway "unless I could prove it said 'No charge" when I booked. Took a two bedroom instead to geet the family out of the lobby before going back down to show Roccio the online policy on I had pulled up on my laptop. She apologized saying she didn't know the policy had changed and asked if I now wanted to move into a king room with a roll away. After the 7 hour drive wo wants to go through the hassle. On the bright side, room service was great food delivered in under fifteen minutes. Thanks Julio!!! "Extra Charges Extra rollaway: No charge Child rollaway: No charge Crib: No charge Note: not all rooms may be able to accommodate rollaways or cribs. Please contact the hotel directly for more information." June 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Unmadebed Great value at this spotless hotel The title pretty much says it, this hotel is spotless and very affordable via starpoints (paid rates also are very reasonable from what I have seen). Staff is super friendly and helpful. Was kind of bummed that there wasn't a room available on the SPG floor. Non-SPG room was similar except it's view was of a big vent and it had no fridge. Still, the room was very comfortable. This is now my go-to Disney area hotel. June 13, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by MountainRider Good business option in Orange County Central location and new room product. When i am traveling and have simple business needs, this is a great option- I like the small feel of the hotel and easy access to area businesses- while close enough to Disneyland to have some evening entertainment and dining options. This is a very comfortable hotel for business when you are looking for the basics. June 12, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by James31 This hotel needs new staff There seems to be a lack of customer service training at this hotel. Upon check in the person helping me at the front desk made me feel like I was not a welcome guest. I had to ask about everything that was available at the hotel and after that she didn't even recognize my spg status. I had to ask for my status upgrades as well. When I called down to get more towels and another robe I was told it would be sent up. I never received anything. I was even told not to leave the do not disturb sign on the door and I specifically did not put it up for them to deliver those items. Having stayed here before I had a certain expectation. This time it was well below that. June 5, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Kim86 Only average Despite being a Starwood gold member, I was given a room with absolutely no view and no upgrade. No slippers were provided and the carpet felt damp and dirty on one's bare feet. House keeping forgot to replenish the bath towels (and even the shower rug) one day! The walls were thin and the noises from the adjacent rooms and corridor could clearly be heard! June 1, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by GlobalGuest Great Stay, Excellent Customer Service The staff at the Sheraton Garden Grove met all of my expectations and went above and beyond to help me when I had to book an extra room at the hotel when it was pretty much full. I will certainly keep staying here when I travel back to the area. Clean rooms, great service, great location. 5 stars. June 1, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by AC310 Best hotel in Anaheim area Hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. Rooms were immaculate, staff was super friendly, and the point redemption was amazing for the quality of the hotel. We will definitely be staying here again during our visits to Disney and Knotts Berry Farm. Great hotel! May 31, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Untidy12 Absent Housekeeping Housekeeping was either understaffed or incompetent. Room service tray remained uncleared from the hallway outside my room for close to 24 hours, and despite leaving my room at 7:30am and returning at 1pm, no housekeeping visited my room - and this was on the Club Floor. May 26, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Energycomp Not for the Business Traveler. I don't know if I've been spoiled by other Sheraton hotels, but I was very unsatisfied with the location and quality of the Garden Grove Sheraton than from any of my previous stays at other hotels. First off, as I entered the room (Standard King) I placed my bags on the floor and laid on the bed for some much needed rest. As I flopped onto the bed I felt as if I was landed on a stiff board. I called the front desk and they offered me another room, but as one of the representatives attempted to assist me in finding another bed, he could not reach the front desk by radio and wasted quite a few minutes standing and making small-talk while waiting for a response to from the front desk. I eventually told the rep that I was too tired of waiting and chose to stay in the room until someone could be reached and other options presented. Secondly, for being a standard king, the room was rather cramped and not laid-out very well. As I laid in the right of the bed, the television was still another 3 feet to the right, forcing me to remain on my right side if I wanted watch television. The desk area was smaller than what I typically used. Cord placement and a huge ugly colored extension cord on the top of the desk were rather distasteful. After further reviewing the room, I generally felt as if the hotel had made some poor (and cheap) choices on the types of furniture and amenities within the room that just made me want to find another hotel immediately. The one good thing I will say about the room was the glassed shower stall and the shower itself. Typically, the bathroom I normally stay at have the standard room on the left or right with the single sink and shower/tub combo. I give the Garden Grove a well earned Kudos for upgrading the style of the bathroom to feel more elegant. The following morning I went to the restaurant to have breakfast and had to go to the front desk to request some one come to the restaurant in order to receive a menu and take my order. As I came back in the evening from work, I tried out the hot tub only to find that the jets were not functional and someone had over-chlorinated the tub (it felt like I was breathing chlorine vapor). As for my bedding choice, the hotel never followed-up with me in presenting other options, which finally made my mind up and too cancel my stay and find another hotel. If you are a business traveler that looks for the comforts of being away from home, this is not the place for you. May 24, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Missingfamilyincali 2nd stay went well I think except for wifi Got a clean room on the 6th floor. On the second stay in less than 2 weeks, I'm simply looking for a clean room and a good bed to sleep in. The overall 5 night stay was enjoyable, the staff did a good job and the cleaning crew is excellent. I come back at the end of every day to a clean room. Enjoy the couple of times at the restaurant. Nothing fancy though they did overcook my medium to more of a well done. Parking I think was a mess on this second stay because they are trying to paint the new lines but also because the area that they newly painted was way too tight. I can imagine that there will be accidents in the new setup. Wifi is the other complaint that I have during this stay. I wanted to use wifi for the duration of stay but ended up going downstairs to use the computer because wifi doesn't work or doesn't work well. I was charged for the first two days that I attempt to use it but was promptly refunded when checking out. May 15, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Disneyfans Great service We had such a wonderful experience at this hotel, we are coming back in June! The shuttle is easy and picks up right out front. The club level is the way to go. Great and helpful staff made our stay even better! May 12, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Missingfamilyincali Overall a great place to stay. I am in the area and booked it for three nights for simple no frills stay since I just need a bed for the four of us. The front desk book us in without much issues and I was placed on 6th floor for being spg gold. Pros, value, good service, nice amenities even though I didn't use it, close to where I need to be, free computer usage interest lobby came in handy for me to print itineraries for my group, quiet Cons, parking fees though it's not much worse than others in the area, one sink in bathroom, I feel the beds are too soft I enjoy the stay so much that I am going back tomorrow. May 4, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Losanno Convenient Location The hotel is very conveniently located down the street from Disneyland. I stayed here on two consecutive weeks for business and found it to be adequate. The lounge is nice and the attendant was friendly. It is tough getting an upgrade as a Platinum and even though suites were being shown on SPG.com, I was not given one. The front desk clerk was adamant that they were not available. The rooms are modern and very clean. There were a lot of families here and I think it caters more to them than business travelers. April 30, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Sunseeker1 The carpet was filthy:( This hotel definately needs attention. The carpet was filthy! I walked around in my white socks and immediately were black underneath. The bathroom floor was sticky! Yuck! I was also charged when my room was prepaid and had to ask the front desk clerk to reverse the charges and he seemed bothered by my request. April 18, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Manju Bait and Switch! I stayed at the Garden Grove hotel for a company conference on March 27th-29th 2012. I called the hotel at least two weeks before our stay and asked the reservation desk if there was a special rate for our group and was told they did not show one at this time.I booked my room that night online through the Sheraton website. 24 hours later I received an email from our corporate office let us know that we need to call the catering manager (Angelina) to book at our special rate. So that next morning I called and explained that I had just booked 2 rooms and would like to get the special rate and was told this would be no problem. I thought this was all I needed to do. When we checked out I noticed we were paying the regular rate and inquired about it, they told me I need to talk to Angelina. I called and left her a voicemail on March 29th @ 6:15am and never got a response back. On April 5th @ 12:44pm I attempted to contact Angelina a second time about our rate being changed over and never received a call back. On April 11th @ 12.07pm I called for a third time and request a call back. Angelina called @ 1.28pm and said that I would not receive the rate that we were promised and that someone from our group should have communicated it to use. I find this completely unacceptable!!! I booked the room with Sheraton, I was told by a Sheraton employee I would receive our rate, and after the fact Sheraton did not honor its agreement. I am highly disappointed and will not be considering Sheraton in future. April 13, 2012

My script uses mysql, tiny_tds, fileutils, and net/ftp. Running on ruby 1.9.3. It works perfectly fine when I run it from inside the folder.
However, when I add it to cron tab, tiny_tds constantly fails. I dont know if any of the other gems fail as I can't get passed this error:
require': no such file to load -- tiny_tds (LoadError)
I tried executing it from the same shell that crontab would use, and i get that error.
the entire script is just 1 file.
I'm new to ruby so my knowledge is limited in setting up the environment the right way.
In the head of the file I have
require "mysql"
require "fileutils";
require "tiny_tds"
require "net/ftp"
In short, I get a list of Jobs from mysql, compare that against MsSQL, FTP files over and update mysql again when jobs are done.
and I need to run this from cron.
After researching for a bit, I tried to set set the gems as global, however, I think that may not have worked.
Thanks in advance for any help!

A studio isn't a proper studio without at least one vacuum tube device. The sound quality of tubes is unique and hard to emulate digitally (and impossible to emulate using transistor circuitry).
You may have wondered however why most tubes have a silvery coating on the inside. This is usually quite easily visible. Just look in the back of your guitar amp.
Tubes work by controlling the flow of electrons through a vacuum. It has to be a vacuum because otherwise the air molecules would get in the way. That's why they are called vacuum tubes :-)
But creating a 'hard' enough vacuum inside a glass envelope is quite difficult. So the trick is to pump out as much air as possible, seal the tube, and then absorb what air is left in some way.
Absorbing as much as possible of the last remnants of air inside is the function of the 'getter'.
The getter is a small cup inside the tube containing a strongly reactive metal, such as barium. When the tube is pumped out and sealed, the getter is fired, producing a 'getter flash' inside the tube.
The silvery patch that is visible is created by the getter. The getter has performed its function by absorbing much of the remaining oxygen.
And the harder the vacuum, the better the performance of the tube. Sometimes the getter flash might be uneven in appearance, but that doesn't make any difference to the sound or how well the tube works. If it turns white however, that's a sign that that air is leaking into the tube. Time for a replacement I think.
Earlier discussion on this topic...
"If it turns white however, that's a sign that that air is leaking into the tube. Time for a replacement I think".
I should definitely do somethings to my amp then!

1915 E145-2 Cracker Jack Christy Mathewson #88 SGC 96 Mint 9 - Pop two, None Higher! A dream will come true for one sophisticated collector here, as Heritage presents one of the most remarkable E145-2 Cracker Jack cards to be placed upon the auction block. Those with even a passing knowledge of the baseball collectibles can appreciate the scarcity and desirability of any Mint condition Mathewson baseball card. Mathewson's illustrious career was largely cemented in history by the time this card came to market. His career earned Matty a well justified place in Cooperstown's inaugural class of five legends of the game. A hero off the field as well, Christy's death by pneumonia in 1925 was the delayed result of a poisonous gas attack occurring during his service in World War I . Issued only a year shy of his retirement from professional baseball, the multi-colored portrait is of a very young Mathewson, printed with an outstanding degree of precision. This spectacular example, is well centered and exhibits four sharp corners. Mint Condition.

|The 2014 Leadership Triangle Awards Gala / Goodmon Awards
presented by
This year our theme was "Reflections to the Future"
And the winners are
Economic Development: Formed in 1991, the First Flight Venture Center (FFVC), a self-funded non-profit, was the very first business incubator in the Triangle. Today FFVC is one of the nation's largest, most stable, self-funded incubators and has played host to more than 285 companies since its inception. Over 60% of those businesses are still operating five years after graduating from the FFVC program.
Arts and Entertainment: Katie Wyatt is founder and Executive Director of Kidznotes, an innovative "music for social change" non-profit program currently serving over 300 students that come from impoverished backgrounds in Raleigh and Durham. Students receive approximately 10 hours of intensive classical music instruction each week at NO COST. Results from the classroom indicate Kidznotes is positively enhancing the intellectual, social and emotional development in the children
Community Service: Activate Good is a nonprofit that helps recruit and connect individuals, groups, and companies to fulfill volunteer needs with currently over 230 partnering nonprofits around the Triangle. In 2013 alone, Activate Good facilitated 4,181 volunteer connections, providing a value of over $260,000 in volunteer services to 180 charities in the Triangle.
Strategic Partnership: GoTriangle Regional TDM Partnership is collaboration of seventeen partners throughout the Region aimed at reducing commuter congestion and improving air quality in the Triangle region. So far, the project has reduced 237,412 daily commute miles traveled (equivalent to a daily trip to the moon) and eliminated 27,047 metric tons of CO2c (greenhouse gas) emissions
Goodmon Fellow: A graduate of the 2011 Regional Leadership Program, Beth Turner exhibits the proactive regional leadership skills and commitment taught in Leadership Triangle programs. She cofounded the local Girls Rock NC program a rock camp for girls throughout the Triangle, while also serving as a Town Commissioner of Pittsboro, serving on the Town of Pittsboro solid waste committee, and coaching entrepreneurs for the annual 100K Space Frontier Foundation's 'Business Plan competitions.
Hall Of Fame Inductee: Bob Ingram. Bob served as an annual speaker in the leadership development class series and was a highlight of the program for ten years. He sought out sponsorship for Leadership Triangle and involved Quintiles who has served as a title sponsor for many years. In addition, he has hosted the Leadership Triangle Executive program graduation at the Ingram Collection for over five years. His contribution to the Leadership Triangle has been outstanding and has been felt throughout the classes and organization for many years.
The Leadership Triangle Awards Gala, formerly called the Goodmon Awards, named after James F. Goodmon, CEO of Capitol Broadcasting and chair emeritus of Leadership Triangle, recognizes outstanding, regionally-minded Triangle leaders and organizations. In our efforts to promote regional leaders, we present five Goodmon Awards, and for the past two years had a Hall of Fame Induction. The Leadership Triangle Awards Gala, presented by the Carolina Hurricanes, is Thursday, December 11, 2014 in Bay 7 on the American Tobacco Campus in Durham, 5:30 to 9:00pm. Join us for the only annual fundraiser for Leadership Triangle.
Thank you to our Annual Sponsors
and Event Sponsors
Pre-Reception Sponsors
Production Sponsor
Table Sponsors
Greater Durham Chamber of Commerce
Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce
Research Triangle Regional Partnership
Research Triangle Foundation
Past Winners
As communities across the Triangle come to understand the importance of working together, regional thinking and regional cooperation become more essential to our individual and collective well being. Yet, we have few mechanisms in place for rewarding such regional foresight and action. As a result, Leadership Triangle in 2002 established the annual Goodmon Awards in honor of James F. Goodmon, chair emeritus, Leadership Triangle, and president/CEO, Capitol Broadcasting Company.
These awards recognize leaders in our community who are regionally minded - and who exhibit that frame of mind in their personal and professional lives. The categories of winners include individuals, public officials/governmental, organizations, partnerships and Leadership Triangle Alumni (Goodmon Fellows)

Today I received one of the APEX "non-matching" Romanian parts sets. This is your typical Patriotic Guard "G" AKM, 1980 vintage. The receiver had been chop-sawed through the magazine well dimples and torched diagonally through the rear isolating the front leg of the trigger guard. All the parts were present except for a magazine and cleaning kit, but the cleaning rod was still in place. No rust was evident anywhere but the front half was gritty from the chop saw and the stock was dirty. The only part that looked corroded was the inside of the slant muzzle brake where it forms sort of a cup. The wood was "used-grimy" with no trench art and just a small ding and a scuff on the foregrip that went below the stain (looks like maybe it brushed against the chop wheel). Finish was 90%, wear only evident on raised areas like corners and rivet heads. Pistol grip was bakelite with no splintering. The bore is chrome-lined and looks good though I haven't cleaned it. [Update: After cleaning it is bright with sharp rifling.] It is truly non-matching with the front end, fire control parts, top cover and bolt/bolt carrier each bearing different numbers. (I don't have gages to check headspace.) The fire control parts are the AKM type with "rate reducer" and have little detectable wear. The disconnecter is a stamped rather than machined type and is intact, contrary to the reputation of PG rifles.
Delivery was about a week, and that week included a Federal holiday. Total cost delivered was 147.50. APEX also had matching sets for $150 vs, $135 when I ordered last week. If they are as good as these I don't think you'd be disappointed.

The Freeport Area School Board will consider final adoption of a nearly $25 million spending plan that calls for a 2 percent property tax increase.
Because the district crosses county lines, the actual amount of the tax hike will be different in Armstong and Butler counties.
The average Buffalo Township property owner will pay $50 a year more while an average homeowner in Freeport or South Buffalo will pay $37 more.
One board faction favors the tax increase to offset anticipated increases over the next three years when the board must borrow money to build a new junior high school.
Another faction, led by board President Mark Shoaf, favors using a fund balance that could total as much as $600,000 instead of raising taxes to have $200,000 more to spend next school year .

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 11/18/11
Atlanta Falcons rookie wide receiver Julio Jones missed a third straight day of practice Friday and has been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Tennessee. Jones aggravated a hamstring injury in Sunday's game against NFC South rival New Orleans Saints. He had missed two games earlier in the season with an injury to his left hamstring. If he is unable to play, Harry Douglas will make the start Sunday. Douglas had eight receptions for 133 yards last week. Jones, the sixth overall pick of the 2011 draft, has 30 receptions for 498 yards and two touchdowns this season.

Hi there! I am an intellectually and spiritually curious, creatively inclined, entertainment artist, manager and consultant; Love to talk, listen, cook, read, listen to music, go antiquing, and roughhouse with Wicket, the deadly attack Shih-tzu. I also believe that life is too short for bad beer or fake butter (and I make a hell of a Hollandaise to back it up. Which is a MUCH better way to cope when life hands you lemons...). I read voraciaously, and write when I can; By "day" I manage a busy theatre facility, and by "night" I am a consultant and free-lance artist. I believe Love, Quality, and Good are all real things, and live so as to pursue them, but don't believe ANY path is necessarily the "right " one, let alone the only one. I used to have some clever quotes here, but this, from Corneille's "L'Illusion Comique" pretty much sums up what I have learned about life and love: "What in this world is not evanescent? What in this world is real and not seeming? Love, which seems the realest thing, is really nothing at all; a simple grey rock is a thousand times more tangible than Love is; and the earth is such a rock, and Love only a breeze that dreams over it's surface, weightless and traceless; and yet Love's more mineral, more dense, more veined with gold and corrupted with lead, ... The art of illusion is the art of Love, and the art of Love is the blood-red heart of the world.

It was a great day on Wednesday with Assistant Editor Mark Rafferty doing his first interview since joining the staff full-time last year.

Foley's Quick Hits from Feb. 18th
The first day of College Baseball is in the books with some interesting results. The season isn't a sprint but a bad start to the season could always affect your chances at making the NCAA Baseball Tournament in May. All of the top 35 teams were scheduled to be in action but number nine ranked Cal-State Fullerton was rained out at Long Beach State. The only ranked matchup was between the Stanford Cardinal who visited the Rice Owls. Here are some of my thoughts on the first night of action in College Baseball. I will try to do these every night throughout the season especially on weekends. If I missed a great performance or a great storyline please leave your comments below.

About Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS)
SBS is a highly disabling condition that impairs quality of life and can lead to serious life-threatening complications. SBS typically arises after extensive resection of the small bowel. There are an estimated 10,000 to 15,000 SBS patients in North America who are PN-dependent, the cost of which can exceed $100,000 annually per patient. SBS patients suffer from malnutrition, severe diarrhea, dehydration, fatigue, osteopenia, and weight loss due to a loss in the ability to absorb adequate amounts of nutrients and water. The goals of current treatment are to maintain fluid electrolyte, and nutrient balances through dietary management, including the use of PN. Long-term complications of the condition may include an increased risk of systemic infections due to the presence of an intravenous feeding line, degenerative changes in the bones and nerves due to vitamin and mineral deficiencies, and liver failure. Potential benefits derived from reduced dependence on intravenous feeding may include improved nutrition, lower rates of infections, and improved quality of life due to more time away from intravenous feeding, which may provide greater mobility and improved sleep. More information about SBS is available on the website, http://www.shortbowel.com and http://www.glucagon.com.
