Another study done in 2008 showed an approximate 10-minute decrease in doorto-drug time and 15 to 20 minutes in doorto-balloon time for patients who used an EMS system versus those patients who arrived in the emergency department on their own.

PeerBlock Helps You Surf the Web in Secret
They're lurking out there--sleazy spyware companies, unscrupulous advertisers, and just people you don't want looking at what your computer is doing. PeerBlock (free), an open source program, offers part of a solution--low level blocking of packets coming from, or going to, a long list of hosts.
While any decent firewall program will let you block hosts one by one, PeerBlock does a huge amount of the work for you, by providing several frequently-updated lists of host addresses. These are divided into spyware, advertising, education, and peer-to-peer. Those last two might raise some eyebrows. The "Education" list is primarily aimed at those using college networks, who do not want their college monitoring their activity. The "P2P" list is a collection of media companies, who regularly scan people on file sharing networks to find out who is pirating movies and music. While there are often legitimate reasons to want to have such protection, it should be noted that PeerBlock freely admits it doesn't provide total security--and if you are violating your college's or ISP's terms of Internet usage, or engaging in illegal activity, this program (or any similar tool) is not going to keep you safe.
Getting the most out of PeerBlock requires a little bit of technical savvy. Simply letting it run with everything cranked to the max caused me to have quite a few problems with Web sites; many hung due to being unable to talk to many of the advertisers on the site. There is a convenient option to allow any communication on the HTTP ports through, however. Depending on how your computer connects to the Internet and the settings of your firewall and ISP, you may need to tweak some things. Fortunately, PeerBlock has a clean and easy-to-understand interface, as well as a public forum.
It is easy to add new blocklists, or to unblock a particular range of addresses for a short period, or forever.
How much use PeerBlock is to you depends on your security needs and your level of paranoia, justified or otherwise. It is a useful first line of defense against sharing information with people you don't want to share information with, but it's not absolute, and the size and scope of the lists could cause some surprises or odd behavior, especially if you forget that it's running. I would consider it generally worth trying, if only for the experience of seeing just how many sites are trying to talk to your computer during an average browsing session.

My husband is a proud Vietnam veteran and he was so pleased to receive this ornament for the tree. We gave it as a joint gift from the family and he was so touched. It arrived well packaged and of good quality.
Posted 12/27/2014 at 6:13 PM by Winona
My husband served 18 years and is very proud to have served. This ornament was very well received, in fact he was totally surprised and it was a very emotional moment for him and the rest of the family. It turned out beautifully.

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
United States Patent Ofiice 3,063,951 Patented Nov. 13, 1962 3,063,951 POLYMERIC AMIDOXHMES AND THEIR DERIVA- TIVES AND A METHOD OF PREPARING SAME Ferdinand Leonard Schouteden, Wilrijk-Antwerp, Belgium, assignor to Gevaert Photo-Producten, Mortsel- Antwerp, Belgium, :1 Belgian company No Drawing. Filed Feb. 26, 1962, Ser. No. 175,791 7 Claims. (Cl. 2602.1)
The present invention relates to new compositions of matter viz: to polymeric substances containing amidoxime groups and derivatives.
Low molecular Weight amidoximes corresponding to the general formula were described by Lossen (Ann. 166, 295 (1875), but in particular by Tiemann and P. Kruger (Ber. 57, 1685 (1884)).
Systematic studies on amidoximes are rather scarce and, as pointed out by Buu-Hoi and Cagniant (Grignard, Traite de Chimie Organique, XV, 710) it seems that attention was particularly directed to the aromatic series,
probably owing to experimental difiiculties.
In a more recent paper (S. Soloway et al., Anal. Chem., 24, 898 (1952)), the reaction of non-polymeric nitrile with hydroxylamine is used as a colorimetric test for nitriles.
Although low molecular amidoximes and reaction products thereof have been studied, polymeric amidoximes have not been described hitherto.
It has already been proposed to dye polyacrylonitrile fibers in the presence of hydroxylamine and cupric salts. The reaction is conducted at a pH of 1.5 to 5, conditions which exclude the formation of amidoximes. According to the prior proposal, it furthermore appears that the hydroxylamine or its derivatives act only as a reducing agent for the cupric salts (U.S.P. 2,653,074).
It has also been proposed to reduce the viscosity of polyacrylonitrile solutions in organic solvents by intimately mixing the polymer with a selected organic solvent and a minor proportion e.g. 0.1 to 5% of an inorganic acid salt of certain organic amines including hydroxylaminehydrochloride. It Was pointed out in this prior disclosure that this modification of the viscosity of the solution appears to be a purely physical phenomenon (U.S.P. 2,671,066) and is obtained regardless of the organic solvent used and independently of whether the solvent is one which liberates an amine on heating or not.
An object of the present invention is a new class of polymers, heretofore unknown.
Another object relates to the formation of derivatives of these polymers.
A further object concerns new compositions of matter containing these polymers.
A still further object is to produce these polymers by means of a simple and economical process.
7 Still further objects are processes to produce derivatives of these polymers.
Another object is to use these compounds in the industrial arts wherein their unique outstanding properties are particularly advantageous.
Other objects and advantages will appear from the following description.
I have found that it is possible to prepare polymeric amidoximes, which term as used hereinafter in the specification and appended claims, is used to embrace all macromolecular substances containing amidoxime groups. Thus, according to the present invention, new polymeric materials consist of or comprise polymeric amidoximes or derivatives thereof.
The invention includes a process for the production of polymerim amidoximes as hereinbefore defined and comprises reacting a polymer, containing nitrile groups, with hydroxylamine until at least part of the nitrile groups have been reacted.
As it will be clearly seen from the following description, these new polymers as well as their derivatives are very useful in many industrial applications.
Although on the one hand it is known that low molecular weight amidoximes may be prepared by reacting an imino ether, amides and thioamides with hydroxylamine, or by reacting ammonia with chlorinated aldoximes, or by reducing oxyamidoximes or nitroso acids, and although there is a possibility that these reactions may also be applied to macromolecular substances, there are ditliculties in obtaining corresponding polymeric starting materials which would render such processes uncommercial.
The basic reaction for the preparation of polymeric amidoximes according to my invention can be represented by the following general formula:
wherein M is the macromolecular part of the molecule, i.e., the macromolecular skeleton which can include other functional groups in addition to nitrile groups;
x is the number of nitrile groups in the polymeric starting material; and
y is the number of amidoximes groups formed in the final reaction product.
The reaction may be continued until all the nitrile groups have reacted with hydroxylamine or it may be interrupted after an arbitrarily chosenperiod of time. The reaction may be performed either in one operation or stepwise. Furthermore, the basic reaction may be preceded, accompanied or followed by other reactions concerning one or more kinds of functional groups present in the macromolecular substance. Typical reactions which may precede or follow the amidoxime formation are, for example, complete or partial saponification or esterification of some functional groups, addition of alkylene oxides and/or acrylonitrile, acetal formation by reaction between polymers of the polyvinyl alcohol type and aldehydes, and esterification of carboxyl or anhydride groups with nitrile groups containing hydroxy compounds.
Typical examples of reactions accompanying the amidoxime-formation are, for example, interand/or intra-molecular ring-formation, neutralization of acid groups and the splitting out of hydrogen chloride in chlorine-containing copolymers. Where the macromolecular part contains group consisting of able nitr iles and all combinations thereof, optionally cross-linked, and any natural or synthetic macromolecular substance cyano-ethylated with acrylonitrile and/or grafted with a polymerisable nitrile as well as polymers containing carboxyl or anhydride groups esterified with nitrile groups containing 'hydroxy compounds. Monomers convenient for the preparation of these polymers are for example, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile and vinylidene cyanide alone or in combination with other polymersiable materials. Macromolecular substances which may be cyanoethylated and/or grafted are for example, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylamine, polyacrylor methacrylamide, cellulose, alginic acid, starch, zein, gelatin, casein as well as their derivatives. The present invention is not restricted to addition polymers but is also applicable to condensation polymers, both with linear or tridimensional structures.
, The hydroxylamine may be used as the free base or in the form of its various known salts in which case the salts are neutralized in the reaction medium with suitable alkaline substances to liberate the hydroxylamine gradually or all at once, or the hydroxylamine can be liberated from hydroxylamine generating substances, for example, ammonium hypochlorite. The reaction may be carried out with the polymeric starting material in solution, as a dispersion or merely in the swollen state.
Varying the groups of independent variables, i.e., nature of starting materials, their molecular weight, degree of substitution and consecutive reactions, offers the possibility of a considerable number of combinations. The resultant polymeric amidoximes and their immediate derivatives possess unique properties and lend themselves to a wide variety of syntheses. Owing to the presence of OH- and NH groups, the new products are very reactive and will undergo the reactions characteristic of these groups separately or in combination. Thu-s, nonlimiting examples include hydrolysis in water or alkaline medium, reaction with nitrous acid, with aniline, with an acylating agent, the addition of carbon disulfide in the presence or absence of potassium alcoholate, the formation of heterocyclic rings with acetic acid or with ethyl ester of acetyl acetic acid, the addition of alkylene oxides and/ or of acrylonitrile.
For use of the polymeric amidoximes in practical ap plications, one of the most simple procedures consists in using the reaction mixture directly after filtration. When preferred, the filtered reaction mixture may be precipitated in a non-solvent and redissolved in proper solvents. The amidoximes produced from linear polymers, for instance, those obtained from polyacrylonitrile, wherein the nitrile groups are almost completely transformed into amidoxime groups are generally insoluble in water, but dissolve in dilute aqueous solutions of acid and alkali. Apparently, this solubility is due to the formation of water-soluble salts by neutralization respectively of the ,-OH groups or the NH groups in the polymer molecule. These solutions may be cast or subjected to spinning and after evaporation of the solvent, form films and fibers. I have also noted compatibility of these solu tions with other polymer solutions, i.e., with aqueous solutions of gelatin, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl pyrrolidone. Thus, they may be used to alter the properties of the primary solutions.
The polymers according to the process of my present invention and/or their derivatives have very useful filmand fiber-forming properties. They may be used for the manufacture of film base and/ or outeror inner layers in graphicor photographic elements, as a raw material for the production of wrapping materials and as a coating on supports of any kind, for instance in paints, varnishes, lacquers, adhesives or a coating on films, foils, sheets, fibers and other shaped articles.
These polymeric amidoximes and derivatives can further be used in the preparation of paper, either as a modifying agent for the paper pulp or as an impregnating agent of the paper band formed. Especially valuable layers are those formed by chemical reaction of the nitrile groups containing shaped article with hydroxylamine. Used in combination with other film forming polymers, they are capable of altering the properties of the film made from these polymers.
In the textile field, they may be used equally well as raw materials for the manufacture of new synthetic fibers, or to improve the properties of other known fibers. An application of outstanding interest consists in their use to improve the properties, especially the dyeability, of nitrile group containing fibers.
Added to other colloidal solutions, they have a marked influence on the rheological properties of these solutions. This is of special interest in the manufacture of photographic elements where it is often desirable to alter the viscosity and the gelling point of the emulsions. Furthermore, they may be used as dispersing and/or binding agents in light-sensitive emulsions. Their ability to bind or to fix different chemical substances makes them very useful particularly in elements where diffusion of chemical substances, dyes and color components have a disadvantageous efiect on the quality of the product. Another application consists in their use as smoke filters in cigarettes. Under certain conditions, the fixing of other chemicals is reversible, thus they may be used as ionexchange resins preferably in the form of granules or fabrics.
The following examples illustrate my invention. They are, however, not intended to be restrictive of the invention. Thus, modifications may be devised by one skilled in the art which will fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
EXAMPLE 1 A. Preparation of Polyacmlonitrile 50 grams freshly distilled acrylonitrile are mixed with 500 ml. thiophene free benzene and 0200' grams benzoylperoXide. 150 ml. of this solution are introduced into a round bottom flask and heated on the water-bath, so that the mixture constantly boils. Introduction of a supply of oxygen-free and dry nitrogen protects the reaction mixture from inhibition by oxygen. After 20- 30 minutes, polymerization sets in and the remaining solution is added dropwise over a period of two hours. Heating is continued for an additional four hours in order to complete the polymerization. The polyacrylonitrile formed is suction-filtered, repeatedly washed with petroleum ether and dried.
B. Reaction With Hydroxylamine One gram polyacrylonitrile from Example 1A above is dispersed in ml. water. When 2.9 grams hydroxylaminehydrochloride are added and dissolved in this mixture, the hydroxylaminehydrochloride is partially neutralized with 1.52 grams anhydrous sodium carbonate. The reaction mixture is heated on the water bath at 75 C. and slowly stirred for six hours. The polymer is suction-filtered, thoroughly Washed with water and dried. It swells in sodium hydroxide solutions, still more in hydrogen chloride solutions, and the swollen particles are dyed to red-brown with a ferric chloride solution.
EXAMPLE 2 One gram polyrnethacrylonitrile and 2.1 grams hydroxylamine hydrochloride are dissolved in 20 ml. dimethylformamide, 3:8 ml. of a 40% aqueous sodium carbonate solution are added and the whole is heated for two hours at 75 C. The sodium chloride formed is suction-filtered and the solution precipitated in methanol and the precipitate is Washed several times with methanol. The polymer when dried contains 19.5% N It is soluble in 0.1 normal sodium hydroxide and in 0.1 normal hydrogen chloride. The hydrogen chloride solution of the polymer develops a deep red color upon addition of ferric chloride.
EXAMPLE 3 grams of a copolymer, consisting of 39 mol percent of acrylonitrile and 61 mol percent of methacrylic acid are dissolved in 60 ml. denaturated ethanol and mixed with a solution of eight gram-s hydroxylamine hydrochloride in 60 ml. of the same solvent. When the temperature has been raised to 5060 0, 6:1 grams anhydrous sodium carbonate, dissolved in .30 ml. water, are dropwise added and the reaction continued for eight hours. The precipitate formed is washed with ethanol, suctionfiltered, gently dried and redissolved in water. The pH is adjusted to 3.5 by addition of 0.1 normal hydrogen chloride solution and the polymer precipitates again. The precipitate, repeatedly washed with ethanol, is suctionfiltered and dried. Yield: 12 grams. The polymer obtained contains 9.4% N and is insoluble in aqueous medium of a pH range between 3 and 6.
EXAMPLE 4 10 grams of Orlon fibers are immersed in a solution containing 21 grams hydroxylamine hydrochloride in 500 ml. Water to which grams anhydrous sodium carbonate are added. The mixture is heated at its boiling point for about 30 minutes while slowly stirring. After this time, the fibrous mass is thoroughly washed with water and finally centrifuged and dried in an air current. A small sample treated with a warm diluted ferric chloride solution takes up all the ferric ions; the solution itself re mains colorless after addition of ammonium thiocyanate solution, showing the absence of ferric ions in the solution.
In the above examples, it is necessary that the pH of the reaction medium remain essentially neutral or slightly acidic. Thus, the only alkaline material present in the reaction medium is that needed to liberate the hydroxylamine from its salt, or from hydroxylamine generating compounds.
Additionally, aqueous medium as employed in the claims and specification is used in contra-distinction to water-free and merely means that there must be at least 10% water present. Thus, mixtures of non-aqueous solvents and water are operable and are claimed herein.
This application is a continuation-in-part of my copending application filed September 19, 1955, Serial No. 535,295, now abandoned.
It should be appreciated that the instant invention is not to be construed as being limited by the illustrative examples. It is possible to produce still other embodiments without departing from the inventive concept herein disclosed. Such embodiments are within the ability of one skilled in the art.
What is claimed is:
l. A process for producing high polymers characterized by a plurality of amidoxime groups which comprises heating in an aqueous medium a high polymer selected from the group consisting of a polymer of acrylonitrile, a polymer of methacrylonitrile, a polymer of vinylidene cyanide, cyanoethylated polyvinyl alcohol, cyanoethylated cellulose, cyanoethylated polyvinyl amine, cyanoethylated polyacrylamide and cyanoethylated polymethacrylamide with free hydroxylamine, sufficient to theoretically transform substantially all of the CN groups, with the formation of amidoxime groups.

Delhi gang-rape: Leadership should offer solutions, says Kiran Bedi
New Delhi: It is time the police and political leadership provided "solutions, not suggestions" in the wake of protests against the gang-rape of a young woman, former police officer Kiran Bedi said Sunday.
The "political and administrative leadership" should also pacify the mass of young men and women protesting against the assault on the 23-year-old a week ago.
Bedi said Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, Delhi Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar, Home Secretary RK Singh and Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde should offer "solutions, not suggestions".
"The police commissioner, chief minister, home secretary and home minister collectively need to address (the protesters)," Bedi told a news channel.
"They need to come forward and give solutions in a time bound matter... but it is not happening, unfortunately."
Speaking on the lack of safety for women, Bedi said: "Crime against women is a national disease, it needs to be addressed nationally.
"There is not a woman in India, including me, who has not suffered harassment in her life," she said.

Karanambu Trust and Lodge: Experience the Rupununi in comfort
I wouldn't call Karanambu Lodge a Hotel because that would create certain expectations from the visitors. It is much more than just accommodation because I felt I was joining the family even though I'd not contacted any of the small community before. I truly felt welcomed and that I was joining them as if for a weekend in the countryside.
Karanambu is the home of Diane McTurk, a national celebrity in Guyana known for her work in developing the Karanambu Trust which seeks to re-habilitate orphaned and sick Giant River Otters. She has lived at Karanambu for most of her life and now, in her eighties, she enjoys talking to visitors about the old times and sharing the dining table with them.
The Lodge is now run by a couple, Salvador and Andrea, who have enabled Karanambu to operate smoothly and comfortably for its customers. Sadly I only spent one night and day here but I would love to return for longer.
The chalet rooms are large, well equipped and very comfortable. I loved the porch which faced out onto all of the Mango trees which were heaving with wildlife because the trees were fruiting. The Brown-throated Parakeets would flood down, squawking excitedly whilst the doves and Red-capped Cardinals would more demurely peck around the edges of the fruit.
At one point, Andrea spotted the male Tayra ( a sleek, furry, member of the Weasel family) climbing into the tree and I dashed off with camera to capture the moment - see photo below.
Diane still plays an active role in the welfare of her Otters. When I visited there was just one a remarkably tame, young male called Tribulation or 'Trib'. Diane would take him down to the river and let him play in the shallows, looking for food. The Trust have managed to return up to 50 individual Otters in the past. Let's hope Trib can join his forbears.
Karanambu has its own airstrip and Salvador will collect visitors from the plane. The air terminal is very luxurious ( not really!)
I was taken out by the Assistant Manager and Guide, Jerry, by boat down the Rupununi River to one of the Ox-bow lakes. Here we came across a terrific selection of wildlife and as we were returning at dusk Jerry was equipped with strong torch to spot birds and reptiles lurking on the river's edge. We found Tree Boas and Iguanas, a Great Potoo, night herons and of course Black Caimans whose eyes slowly sank into the water as we approached them.
The following morning we were up before dawn for hot drinks and out in the truck onto the savannah in search of the other 'Giant' that Karanambu is famous for. This time it was the Giant Anteater. Local cowboys, called Vaqueros, are sent out to locate the anteaters and once they have found one the truck with the visitors set off towards them. The animal, about 2m in length, was lolloping across the grassland in search of termites and ants. We were able to get close enough for some photos. On our journey we also came across Crab-eating Foxes and a pair of Coati Mundis shot across in front of the vehicle. Add to this a wide variety of birds and it meant I was in my element. What a fantastic time.
I'd managed to pack in another short walk down to the Honey Ponds where we came across another family of Giant River Otters before it was time to leave. This area is certainly well inhabited by a rich diversity of wildlife so, although I was very sorry to leave Karanambu I knew I had been extremely fortunate to share in some treasured moments of this wonderful place.
The food was very much home cooked and the meal times felt like we'd come home to share in a family meal. I'd not experienced this kind of hospitality before and I really appreciated it particularly as a solo traveller.

Iwokrama River Lodge: Eco-lodge on the mighty Essequibo
This eco-lodge was amazingly comfortable considering its location in the middle of the jungle, hundreds of miles from any major population centers. The setting on the Essequibo River is lovely, perfect for getting out on the river to see birds and other wildlife as well as hiking in the jungle that surrounds the cleared area where the lodge is. There are cabins equipped with everything you might want, including fans and mosquito nets, comfortable beds, and en suite bathrooms.
Meals are served buffet-style in the main lodge building, which also has free and entirely serviceable wi-fi. There is a small bar that serves the ubiquitous Banks beer, with a comfy open-air lounge area where you can catch any available breeze and watch for bird and animal life. You can get laundry done if you need it.
If you're not into nature, there isn't much to do here (well, nothing!), but if you are, you'll be very happy here. Evenings are quiet, and we were really wishing for a pool when we came back covered in sweat after hiking and boating in the fierce Guyanan heat, but we made do with showers. (Swimming in the river wasn't an option--you don't want to get that close to the resident caiman!)
If you are into nature, particularly birds, this place is a gold mine. You can spot dozens of species right from the deck of the main building. Highly knowledgeable bird and wildlife guides from the lodge can take you out into the forest or on the river to see birds, the six species of monkeys that live in the area, caimans swimming in the river, capybaras, and if you are lucky, jaguars.

Family Trip: Sleepin International Brickdam
Location:on approaching the hotel i was a bit worried...does not look like a place i would "normally" stay..not fancy looking!
BUTTTTTTT...... Excellent! I made the right choice!
NEW CLEANNNNN average rooms. Safe hotel. Friendly staff (expect for the server at breakfast...lol...i heard she is the talk of all the visitors...) Pool area ok. Bar is nice.
Hot and cold water, computer access from lobby also.
Great place to stay. Will come again.
In the heart of the city, travelling is easy and cheap from the airport to city approx $20USD for the entire cab. For hotel to most resturants and main shopping streets between $3USD-$4USD.
Free Interent in rooms.

Church view hotel: WORST hotel in Guyana!!
Had to stay in Berbice for 3 nights recently. I live many miles away and was traveling with friends. We made a choice based on web available info and BOY did we bottom out!
So as to prevent others from having this horrible experience, there are other places nicer AND cheaper within a block!
The good: breakfast was good, reasonably priced, made to order. The waitress/server was the same as the cook (Indra). Very friendly.
Price was average for a hotel in the area, about G$8000/night or $40 US. Room had a window A/C unit (from the 1960's).
The bad: the thick carpet of mold and dust on the A/C unit prevented it from cooling the room until I took it off and scrubbed it. It hadn't been cleaned in at least a year. They aren't very familiar with a/c here, so they might not know it HAD a filter.
Toilet area was filthy. You could change the color of the tank by running your finger across it.
Room was just larger than a prison cell and the TV had to be precariously perched on top of the cube refrigerator which hardly worked.
Decorated in cheap, plastic, yard sale and dollar store fixtures.
Carpet was absolutely disgusting, and looked like an army issue wool blanket!
I could go on and on about the dirt and filth but my friends room next door had roaches camped out in their non-working refrigerator. I think that sums it up.
I can forgive small rooms and bare light bulb furnishings, but filth is something I'm not accustomed to paying for.
On top of all this, we had a small problem that need to be ironed out by the staff. The daytime desk clerk is rude, obnoxious AND arrogant! I know now, after several years in this country, that customer service is almost unheard of, but this guy is a true bottom dweller. Certainly not an impressive representative of his hotel. Fortunately, several of the women that work there did follow his lead.
There is a nicer place almost next door! It's actually two doors away, but you get the idea. Many friends stayed there instead and are laughing like crazy at our experience.
EVERYONE who stayed at the other place, The Parkway Hotel (592-333-3928) had a great time, no complaints. They said their rooms were clean, decent sized and cheaper. A/C is available there if you want (for an additional cost - very typical in this country) There are other places nearby also. Just do a google search. OR read reviews from here or elsewhere.
If staying in the Lethem area, try the Takatu Inn. Very friendly and clean. Owners are friendly and accommodating.
it's directly across the street from a three story Muslim Masjid (house of prayer/ worship)
At lunch time they have a loudspeaker where they call everyone in the area to come for prayer/service. About as loud as those bells that Catholic churches use to announce Mass time. The service is broadcast up and down the street for all to hear.
Unfortunately, the other time of day for this is at 5:00 a.m.!! Unfortunate for those who were sleeping. And for those staying in a hotel right across the street.
If the desk clerk had been respectful or helpful, it would have made a lot of difference. Unfortunately, he chose to exemplify 3rd world mentality.
If you have one that can beat this one, please post it!

Cara Lodge: True Hospitality
In 2009, the U.S Air Force came to Guyana to complete an humanitarian mission. One of the hotels that housed units from all over the US was the Cara Loge. This was an amazing experience.

Le Meridien Pegasus Hotel: Great Hotel In Georgetown
During December of 2007, we stayed for over one week at the Le Meridien Pegasus hotel in Georgetown, Guyana. The hotel is a beautiful place tucked away on the edge of Georgetown. It is located right on the seawall of Guyana. The beach is not able to be used, due to Guyana being below sea level. The sea is all murky and muddy in this area.
The rooms are very clean, never did we have any problems with running water. The housekeeping staff was very good in keeping overstocked with bottled water. Although, I did consumer tap water in Georgetown, I did not have any problems with it.
There is a huge swimming pool at this hotel, which makes it very relaxing laying out during the afternoon under the hot South American sun. At the far end of the pool is the main hotel bar. The bar is kept open until at least midnight, usually later.
Food service at this hotel is great, but a little on the pricey side. There is a restaurant that has a breakfast buffet near the front desk, very good. Across from the front desk is another very high-priced restaurant. The main and best restaurant is the outdoor one, located all around the pool area. Here the food is very good, and you are served by very friendly waiters.
Le Meridien Pegasus is right in the city of Georgetown. About five blocks up the street is the Palm Court Restaurant. The Palm Court stays open until 3:00 am every night, and opens at 11:00 am every day, except Sunday, when they open up at 4:00 pm. The food at this restaurant is very reasonably priced and outstanding. There is a full-service bar at this location that also serves until 3:00 am. I highly recommend this place.
All around Georgetown there are numerous places to eat at. From very fine pastry shops to Chinese restaurants all over. Dinner at these Chinese restaurants is very feasible for about $US10 for two people, including beverage.

Le Meridien Guyana Pegasus, Georgetown: A happening place.
After 10 days in the remote Pakaraimas hiking and camping, this hotel was like an oasis for us. We arrived dirty and dusty from the interior, yet we were welcomed like royalty with cold punch and smiles. The hotel is located far enough away from the chaos of downtown Georgetown and on the ocean so we could enjoy the pleasant breeze in the lobby and in our ocean-view room.
Our room was quite satisfactory for us, but in the context of a 5 star hotel the rooms are ready for an overhaul.
The atmosphere at the hotel is very comfortable. The restaurants serve excellent food. The pool and bar area is a great place for socializing and some evenings there's a band and dancing. We were there on Valentine's Day and we ate and danced to the rhythm of a steel drum band.
There is a gift shop, business center, hair dresser, small gym and tennis courts.
The hotel also hosts several local Rotary Clubs for those who like to make up their meetings while they're away.
Staff was always pleasant and helpful.
Excellent restaurants and breakfast buffet.
Fun pool and bar.
Open breezy lobby leading to lounging areas and pool.
Felt very secure.
It just seemed to be a happening place.

Sleepin Hotel, Brickdam Road: Haven in the heart of town
Best little hotel I've stayed at in Guyana. Sister hotel of Sleepin Guest House located in Church Street but has its own sweet ultra modern identity.
Ultra clean, cable tv, air conditioned, hot and cold showers, fridge and mirowave for your convenience. Also your own private balconey depending on the type of room you request. Right in the heart of town yet so quiet and peaceful...added plus walking distance to stores, restaurants and the Stabroek Market. Helpful and friendly staff...it was really an enjoyable experience...a true home away from home.

Tropicana - Fine brazilian Cuisine and Hotel: Guyana's Best cheap hotel in 2006
I've been reading what people wrote about Tropicana and I have to say that these are old information. Tropicana was restored on 2006 and it looks amazing. It is all decorated with Amerindian crafts, they added more bathrooms in the rooms, the rooms are VERY clean and they have security 24/7.
Very nice bilingual staff and a GREAT restaurant... which is known now to be the best latin restaurant of the country. I could sit there all day and eat till I fall. ahha... If you talk to the manager they can arrange many things for your room with no additional cost, such as tv and other necessary stuff.

Baganara Island Resort: Beautiful Baganara Island
This is a resort with a beautiful location and a lot of potential. The main building houses the kitchen, bar, a huge lounge area and some rooms on the second floor. However, the rooms in the newer building are much nicer. Our room in the new building was fairly large, had a queen size bed and the room was spotless. Unfortunately, the ceiling fan was in need of repair so we only had an oscillating fan for cooling and that just didn't help....it was long night. What was very surprising was the meals. Dinner was spaghetti and meatballs....no choice and no appetizers, salad or bread. Ice cream for dessert. We had to ask for coffee and it was instant. Breakfast was bread (not toast), wieners in a very tasty sauce and scambled eggs....we opted for tea this time. Lunch was more in line with what we expected. Cook-up, fish and a small salad. Pineapple for dessert. Oh, yes, and a fantastic hot sauce. The quality of the food was excellent but the presentation was lacking. The staff were all too comfortable using the guest facilities....thankfully, it was low season and only a handful of guests on site.

Rock View Lodge: Savannah Sunset & Sunrise
Rock View Lodge is at peace with the landscape where it is built. The beauty of the location is what hits you as you drive down the long laneway. The view of the sunset from the rocks behind the lodge is enough to make you rise early enough to view the sunrise from the same location. The owner, Colin Edwards, his family and staff are very attentive to ensure that the rooms are clean and comfortable and the meals wonderful. And finally, a good cup of coffee -- Guyana seems to think instant coffee is the norm -- thankfully, the Rock View staff know how to make real coffee.

The Grand Coastal Inn: When near Georgetown...
When arriving in Guyana, we had already booked a hotel in Georgetown. But our private driver, who we knew through a trusted friend in Guyana let us know that we didn't want to stay there. Indeed, staying in certain parts of Georgetown is not a good idea -- not safe even for the locals.
So we were redirected to The Grand Coast Inn just outside Georgetown. Amazingly, my uncle who was travelling with us knew the owner of the Inn (but he only knew that when we arrived there!). The inn is clean, safe, has a nice patio to sit in the front (see photo) and a large dining room and lounge inside. A gem compared to other places I've stayed in Guyana. And who can beat wireless remote air conditioners in every room. Luxury!

The Tower Hotel: The Tower Hotel
Rates: Single: US$75
Double: US$75
Suite: US$90-$120
While the Pegasus is a good place to eat, The Tower Hotel rates 10 for accomodation, not only because it is ideally located in the heart of the city and walking distance from many places of interest in Georgetown. But also because it has the best all around rates in the town.
Honoured by a commemorative postage stamp on her 50th Anniversary, the Hotel Tower is proud to wear the title of 'Leading Businessman's Hotel in Georgetown.'
Unique for Georgetown, but traditional at Hotel Tower, is 24 hour service -room service, restaurant and bar service, front desk service, internal and external security service.

Product description
America faces a full-scale socioeconomic collapse-the stock market plummets, hyperinflation cripples commerce and the mounting crisis passes the tipping point. Practically overnight, the fragile chains of supply and high-technology infrastructure fall, and wholesale rioting and looting grip every major city. As hordes of refugees and looters pour out of the cities, a small group of friends living in the Midwest desperately tries to make their way to a safe-haven ranch in northern Idaho. The journey requires all their skill and training since communication, commerce, transportation and law enforcement have all disappeared. Once at the ranch, the group fends off vicious attacks from outsiders and then looks to join other groups that are trying to restore true Constitutional law to the country. Patriots is a thrilling narrative depicting fictional characters using authentic survivalist techniques to endure the collapse of the American civilization. Reading this compelling, fast-paced novel could one day mean the difference between life and death.
