From: Brian L. Carter, PhD and Carl V Phillips, PhD

Comment Tracking Number: 1jz-8lf9-1nx4
Comment Tracking Number: 1jz-8lf9-1nx4
Re: Comments on ANPRM "Warnings and Child-Resistant Packaging for Liquid Nicotine, Nicotine-Containing E-Liquid(s), and Other Tobacco Products" (Docket No. FDA-2015-N-1514)
This is a comment on Docket No. FDA-2015-N-1514 (advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM), "Nicotine Exposure Warnings and Child-Resistant Packaging for Liquid Nicotine, Nicotine-Containing E-Liquid(s), and Other Tobacco Products"). We are concerned scientists with expertise in fields related to the proposed rule making. Carter is a member of the Board of Advisors of CASAA (The Consumer Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives Association) and an independent consultant. Phillips is Chief Scientific Officer of CASAA.
This comment should not be mistaken for CASAA's direct comment on the ANPRM [posted at regulations.gov at http://www.regulations.gov/#!documentDetail;D=FDA-2015-N-1514-0385 and also appearing at http://blog.casaa.org/2015/09/casaa-comment-on-fdas-proposed.html] (hereafter referred to as "the CASAA comment"). That comment presented analysis that supported the inclusion of safety warning labels and the use of child-resistant packaging, so long as these were not inappropriately used to mislead consumers about the risks or to intentionally lower product quality. The present comment has been endorsed by the CASAA leadership, and thus should also be considered an second official comment by the organization.
In the first CASAA comment, we predicted that those who seek to discourage e-cigarette use and other tobacco products may use this as an opportunity to misuse the legitimate process of creating valid and potentially beneficial safety warnings to deliver misleading claims with the intent of lowering the appeal of these products for consumers. The present comment is intended to make that concrete by observing exactly this behavior in one specific comment that has been filed. We reiterate the observation made in the CASAA comment that if FDA were to follow such advice, it would be scientifically misleading and grossly inappropriate public policy, would increase the risk of accidental poisonings by causing consumers to dismiss the warnings on these and other products as unreliable, and unnecessarily discourage smokers from seeking low-risk alternatives.
We are taking as an example for our response the comments submitted to the FDA under this docket number by the University of California, San Francisco, Tobacco Center of Regulatory Science (TCORS) and the California Poison Control System (CPCS) (hereafter: the TCORS/CPCS comment). This comment was previously published by Professor Stanton Glantz, PhD, on his UCSF website
and appears at regulations.gov at
We expect that this is but one example of many comments from commentators with similar ideology-based political goals willing to subvert the rulemaking process in support of those goals. This is not an attempt to identify every error or weakness in the particular comment, but to illustrate the attempts to misuse this process to inappropriately demonize the products. We expect that this pattern will continue with every proposed regulation in this space and point out that FDA should not mistake political advocacy for scientific analysis, even when it is coming from the NIH- or FDA-funded academics. We wish to emphasize the contrast between the tendentious TCORS/CPCS comment and the CASAA comment, which we believe makes appropriate, reasonable, and science-based recommendations concerning the labeling and packaging of e-cigarette components and dissolvable smokeless tobacco products. The authors of the TCORS/CPCS comment are on record as opposing the use of low-risk tobacco products and have supported campaigns to dissuade consumers, including smokers, from experimenting with them (e.g., http://sanfranciscotobaccofreeproject.org/curbit-2/, https://tobacco.ucsf.edu/san-francisco-launches-e-cig-public-education-campaign).
Text from the published TCORS/CPCS document is presented throughout, indented and in italics, followed by our comments in a point-by-point analysis. The TCORS/CPCS comments are reproduced verbatim; the grammar and typographical errors appear in the original.

Wozzilroy! Rory McIlroy, Caroline Wozniacki get engaged
Dec 31, 2013 at 5:34p ET
Ready to finish off 2013 with some heart-warming news?
Rory McIlroy and Caroline Wozniacki are engaged.
The tennis star announced the big news Tuesday and showed off a picture of her new ring on Twitter:
Happy New Year everyone! Rory and I started 2014 with a bang! ... I said YES!!!! pic.twitter.com/J7c2pXgsdC— Caroline Wozniacki (@CaroWozniacki)
December 31, 2013
Well, that was an interesting phrase to use.
Anyways, it looks like we won't have to hear any more rumors (for a while, at least) about the sports power couple breaking up.
Maybe this will help McIlroy win a few tournaments in 2014. Or maybe it won't. Who knows?
Now let's look at some photos of the couple.
Here's Wozniacki looking thrilled to be watching her man play golf:
And here's McIlroy looking thrilled to be watching his main squeeze play tennis:
Happy New Year, Wozzilroy!

Creative ZiiSound Dx Series speakers hands-on
Building on the success of its D5 Bluetooth speaker, launched in 2010, Creative has introduced the updated ZiiSound Dx wireless speaker system and we were lucky enough to get a sneak preview.
The wireless modular speaker system comprises the ZiiSound D5x one-piece speaker, the ZiiSound D3x speaker and the ZiiSound DSx wireless subwoofer. The aim is to "challenge the traditional audio system" by offering a flexible sound system that will play off pretty much any Bluetooth-enabled device including the iPhone and Android and Blackberry handsets, as well as a wide range of tablets. Although the speakers are wireless, in that they don't have to be wired up to each other or to the music source, there is a still a power cable present.
All of the products feature apt-X Bluetooth technology for CD quality playback and you can choose the set-up that you want. For example, if cash is tight then you might opt for one of the two standalone speakers (the D5x and the D3x). If you want to add some extra bass, then you can invest in one of the DSx sub-woofers. If you want a 2.1 system, then simply add an extra D5x or D3x speaker and you can also set yourself up with a 3.1 system by adding one more. And if you really want to push the boat out, then you can invest in a second sub-woofer (the system will in fact supports up to four sub-woofers - that's a hell of a lot of bass).
The fact that the system is flexible means that you can have as several different speaker set-ups in various rooms around the house - you can just pick and mix whichever components are most suitable, so while a one-piece speaker might be ok for bedroom listening, you can kit yourself out with a 3.1 system for your living room.
Although the system will work with most Bluetooth products, Creative offers the BT-D5 Bluetooth trasmitter for iDevices, which is equipped with the same apt-X technology as the speakers and will also charge your iPod or iPhone during playback.
The new DX series has clearly taken its design cues from the D5 speaker - with the D5x looking pretty much identical to its predecessor. All of the components are very compact, so even if you opt for a full 3.2 system, they shouldn't take up too much room. There's aren't any controls on the speakers, so all the track changing is done directly from the iPod (or whatever you're using).
Although the speakers were already set up for our demo, we were assured that this is a very simple process, as once powered up, the base speaker will automatically search for other Bluetooth devices to hook up to.
The audio quality was certainly impressive, both on vocals and intrumental tracks. The sound was warm and clear, although it did sound as though a certain amount of clarity would be lost if you were to turn the volume up too high. The low-frequency response from the subwoofers was very strong and even made the windows rattle. Our first impressions of the new speaker series were good - but we'll get them in for a more in-depth review as soon as we can.
The ZiiSound D5x will hit the shops in June, priced at £279.99. The ZiiSound DSx sub-woofer will launch at the same time for £139.99, but you'll have to wait until August for the ZiiSound D3x, which will come with a price tag of £139.99.

"sorry when it was over"
a lot of words but I like that. never boring. I will save to listen again.
"Coffee Obsession"
Listened to all three books back to back to back and I have to say I only wished Larsson had lived to write more. One strange thing about all the books was the almost endless insertions of coffee consumption, often so frequent I found myself laughing out loud. I can't be the only one that has noticed this.... I only pray that this isn't what killed this fine author...
"Really enjoyable and satisfying."
I am so sad that we have seen the last of Mr. Larsson's work. May he rest in peace. Perhaps someone else can try to fill his shoes and bring our heroine back to life. She is way too young and amazing to have seen her last, right?
It took me a while to get into this book. I devoured the first 2 books in the series quickly but this one didn't initially capture me. I had to sit it down for a couple months until I was ready to try again. I was not a fan of the political commentary which seemed to drag on for too long. I just couldn't wait to get to the parts with Lisbeth. Great ending to the series. I wish there could have been a 4th book.
Gift Subscription for my lovely wife.
"Terrific narration"
Simon Vance has nailed it in this book - it was fun to listen to all three books over again and hear his characterization develop over time. Simon truly makes this book sing, I think it's a better audio book than paper book. Twenty-five stars! I'll listen to Simon read the phone book!
"The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest"
I could not turn it off. Loved it. The plot was interesting and the narrator was perfect.
"Great series"
The only disappointing thing about this book is that its the last one. All three books have been great and kept my attention from start to finish.
"A Work of Art"
The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson is a excellent close to the Lisbeth Salander trilogy. Even though she is physically limited in this installment her personality is pervasive throughout and the ultimate conclusion is satisfying indeed. Also, as long as I have been listening to audible books there has never been a narrator better than Simon Vance. His portrayal of these characters made the stories come alive. My most humble appreciation to both Stieg Larsson and Simon Vance.
"Simply the best!"
A great read you can't put down. My only regret is the passing of Stieg Larsson and the end of this incredible trilogy and our infamous character, Lizbeth Salender.
"2nd Sequel"
First listen to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. This book picks up where that one leaves off. Most of the same main characters with a intermixing of new characters. A bit of mundane politics thrown in to explain the weird and intriguing behaviors of numerous characters. Much of the book is exciting and intriguing though I enjoyed the rapid action of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo more.

At least they could use the Adam excuse to cover why they really were sweaty and disheveled! I have my fingers crossed that they manage to do the spell correctly before they go up against Adam. Cause I didn't get the we've got this vibe from them.
Riley seems to be better. I guess all those IV fluids have flushed his system a bit. He doesn't seem quite off his rocker any more. Unfortunately Graham seems to be a little off. I can understand him not trusting Buffy because he never did. But doubting Riley, I guess it's because he believes that no one can get past them. But Riley did, he dropped out of nowhere into the labs. Didn't that give him a clue?
I was cracking up when Xander and Spike both said the same thing at the same time. Hell just froze over, they agreed on something!
Giles and Buffy was great. She was always so worried that they would all leave her if she wasn't perfect. Giles put her fears to rest even though he didn't know what he was agreeing to until he had that little epiphany at the end! I can just see his face after Spike hit the horn and he connected the dots. Egypt must really be a wonderful place to live!
| lil-leti chapter 17 . 1/26/2012
well well, it looks like Riley being known for not listening is going to hurt everyone. he has put himself in jeopardy so much lately that no one wants to listen to him. I really do hope that someone figures it out before it is too late.
But so glad that Spike and Buffy keep trying to work through the complexity of this new 'relationship' that they are making. She is right, she is not a damsel in distress but still a girl. And he is not a knight in shinning armor but still a man who is not perfect. Vampire or not.
And to have everyone waiting on them while they are getting it on out front was just TOO funny.
| omslagspapper chapter 17 . 1/26/2012
hahaha, "it's called a car alarm."
i laughed so hard!
| DLillith21 chapter 17 . 1/25/2012
The car horn...loved it. Laughed out loud at that one. The bit with Adam and Riley and "mother" was creepy, but then so were those scenes in the show. Don't like Finn's attitude..."I'll definitely ask her..." or something like that, doesn't spell good for Buffy. Can't wait to see Tara and the spell!

This is the only Buffy/Spike story that I read (although the first I read was the first one in this series) I really enjoy that the story has a plot but I wish this chapter had more Buffy/spike scenes as your talent really lies with your depiction of them and their relationship. All in all good work and I look foreward to the next chapter.

Nice exposition, moving the plot forward ... then the "car alarm" made only in Sunnyhell - so glad I was reading at home instead of the office. Hard to explain loud guffawing, and the occasional snort! Soooooo funny, and so very Spuffy. Poor, poor DeSoto.

*lol* LOOOVED the bit with the car horn. *snerk* that was great!
| fangfaceAndrea chapter 17 . 1/24/2012
heh. Cool chapter, a litlle of everything, I liked Riley escaping because of Spike and Buffy :) and it ended in a high note ;) lots of fun and sexy times. I approve.
| ginar369 chapter 17 . 1/24/2012
I love the two of them snarking at each other! It's just so them.. Plus to see them understand and realizing that their ex's were the ones in the wrong and finally seeing the faults that Dru and Angel had is wonderful. They way Dru and Angel treated them made them think something was wrong with them when it was the other way around.
Riley is starting to fight the drugs but his thinking is still a little off concerning Buffy and Spike knocking boots. But at least he realizes that they are fighting against Adam. I just hope Gates believes him. But as much as I love our military these guys were as thick as planks, must have been the steroids. :) Riley was a liability he would always have to prove something to either himself or others and he made bad decisions because of it. He did redeem himself slightly at the end trying to get the message across about Adam and Buffy and Spike so I can cut him a break.
Yea Tara! I never understood why she wasn't part of the take down of Adam on the show. She knew more about magic than Willow and used it better too! So glad to see her being appreciated and respected for her talent and knowledge. She was always such a shy thing and this will make her feel more like part of the group and bring her out of her shell. Gotta love Anya being so selfless volunteering to watch over them! She made some good points about knowing some magic in case things went wrong. But we know she is very worried about her mortal body. She always makes me laugh. She tries so very hard to be human but hell it's been over a 1000 years! She never had to worry about dying before! Plus she never had to censor her speech before. Loved the phone tag they were doing to Giles. Bet he never saw this happening when he became a watcher. Here he thought he would have to train one girl and instead he got an entire passel of them and they drive him bug shagging crazy most days!
Of course facing imminent death is going to get your motor running! You might die any minute so you want to do something life affirming before it happens. Nothing I rather be doing before I die than Spike! Oops did I type that? Bad Gina ;)
The car horn had me cracking up! Especially the long beep at the end. You would think Anya would have figured out what they were doing! The talk in the car was great foreplay, talking about what they want in a partner and lover and love and realizing they had it in each other. That rugged rutting is telling both of them that how much they want each other, how well they match each other. That's why it feels like she is being put back together. That can't keep your hands off him, need to feel him, clawing at your throat need. Makes for great rutting! And tons of feelings. She never had that with Angel or Riley. And in her line of work she needs it, someone to let go with. Someone who can be tender when she needs it, hard and fast when she needs that or somewhere in between. Spike needs it too, to know he is wanted, needed, respected. He never got that from Cecily or Dru. Cecily hated him, Dru needed a nursemaid. Neither of them wanted him and Dru was unable to love him.
Sweet, you have made me greedy. Every time you post an update for one of your stories it just makes me want more!

That does not mean running Linux is any more difficult than non-free software or requires you to be a programmer—in fact, anyone can learn Linux! It's just that you do have to put some thought into the process, as you did when you learned to drive a car or to speak a foreign language. Those were worthwhile tasks, and you will find that the time spent learning Linux is, too.

Apart from providing a high degree of irrefutability, authentication also needs to be flexible, cost-effective and convenient. As facial recognition biometrics can be offered on almost all of the mobile devices in the market today, it saves companies the cost of supplying specialty devices such as OTP tokens. Not only does it do away with multiple steps for authentications, facial recognition is easy for administrators to implement and has high adoption rates among the users.
"Overall, with a pragmatic product roadmap, Frost & Sullivan expects NEC to make facial recognition biometrics a market reality in mainstream commercial applications for authentication and in government applications for identification," noted Dickson.

Arginine and antioxidant supplement on performance in elderly male cyclists: a randomized controlled trial
ABSTRACT Human exercise capacity declines with advancing age. These changes often result in loss of physical fitness and more rapid senescence. Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in improvement of exercise capacity through vascular smooth muscle relaxation in both coronary and skeletal muscle arteries, as well as via independent mechanisms. Antioxidants may prevent nitric oxide inactivation by oxygen free radicals. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of an L-arginine and antioxidant supplement on exercise performance in elderly male cyclists.
This was a two-arm prospectively randomized double-blinded and placebo-controlled trial. Sixteen male cyclists were randomized to receive either a proprietary supplement (Niteworks®, Herbalife International Inc., Century City, CA) or a placebo powder. Exercise parameters were assessed by maximal incremental exercise testing performed on a stationary cycle ergometer using breath-by-breath analysis at baseline, week one and week three.
There was no difference between baseline exercise parameters. In the supplemented group, anaerobic threshold increased by 16.7% (2.38 ± 0.18 L/min, p < 0.01) at week 1, and the effect was sustained by week 3 with a 14.2% (2.33 ± 0.44 L/min, p < 0.01). In the control group, there was no change in anaerobic threshold at weeks 1 and 3 compared to baseline (1.88 ± 0.20 L/min at week 1, and 1.86 ± 0.21 L/min at week 3). The anaerobic threshold for the supplement groups was significantly higher than that of placebo group at week 1 and week 3. There were no significant changes noted in VO2 max between control and intervention groups at either week 1 or week 3 by comparison to baseline.
An arginine and antioxidant-containing supplement increased the anaerobic threshold at both week one and week three in elderly cyclists. No effect on VO2 max was observed. This study indicated a potential role of L-arginine and antioxidant supplementation in improving exercise performance in elderly.

- "In addition to the conflicting results, only limited data are available from chronic studies investigating the metabolic and hormonal effects of L-arginine supplementation in response to exercise. Thirteen studies have combined chronic L-arginine supplementation and exercise [6] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20]. Among these studies, only one [6] assessed the effects of the supplement on metabolic and hormonal parameters in response to running exercise. "
Article: L-arginine does not improve biochemical and hormonal response in trained runners after 4 weeks of supplementation[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: It has been hypothesized that l-arginine improves exercise performance by increasing nitric oxide synthesis and levels of insulin and growth hormone (GH). Metabolic and hormonal responses to chronic l-arginine supplementation may clarify the mechanisms underlying its putative physiologic effects on physical performance. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects that 4 weeks of supplementation with l-arginine would have on metabolic and hormonal parameters at rest and in response to exercise. Fifteen healthy runners were divided into treatment (ARG; 6 g l-arginine) and placebo (PLA; 6 g cornstarch) groups. On the first visit, blood samples were collected for baseline, and the supplement or placebo was provided. After 4 weeks of supplementation (second visit), blood samples were collected at the following intervals: at rest, immediately after the first 5-km time-trial running test (5km-TT), immediately after the second 5km-TT, and after 20 minutes of recovery (+20). In addition to exercise performance (total running time), plasma nitrate, nitrite, nitrate plus nitrite, cyclic guanosine monophosphate, lactate, ammonia and serum insulin, GH, insulin-like growth factor 1, and cortisol concentrations were evaluated. There were significant increases in plasma nitrite, cyclic guanosine monophosphate, lactate, ammonia and serum GH, and cortisol at the first 5km-TT, immediately after the second 5km-TT, and +20 in both ARG and PLA. Nitrate plus nitrite and nitrate increased only at +20. No significant change was observed in serum insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 in any sample period. Total running time did not differ significantly between the 2 tests, in either ARG or PLA. Thus, according to our results, 4 weeks of l-arginine supplementation did not cause beneficial changes in metabolic and hormonal parameters, beyond those achieved with exercise alone.Nutrition research 10/2014; 34(1):31-9. DOI:10.1016/j.nutres.2013.10.006 · 2.47 Impact Factor
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
- "Many studies have shown different results and there are several possible factors that may cause this variability of the results. The shorter [3, 19, 20, 23, 27] or the longer period of supplementation [1, 10, 11, 18]; combination of arginine with different components [1, 6, 9–13, 26]; different doses of arginine; different exercise protocols; different fitness levels of subjects (endurance trained athletes [1, 10, 11, 20], physically active healthy men [3, 18, 23], combat sports athletes [16, 27], etc. ) are some of the factors that may cause inconsistent results of the studies. "
ABSTRACT: Dietary supplements containing arginine are among the most popular ergogenics intended to enhance strength, power and muscle recovery associated with both anaerobic and aerobic exercise. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the possible effect of pre-exercise acute intake of arginine on performance and exercise metabolism during incremental exhaustive exercise in elite male wrestlers. Nine volunteer elite male wrestlers (24.7±3.8 years) participated in this study. The test-retest protocol was used on the same subjects. The study was conducted using a cross-over design. A single dose of arginine (1.5 g · 10 kg(-1) body weight) or placebo was given to the subjects after 12 hours fasting (during the night) for both test and retest. Subjects were allowed to drink water but not allowed to eat anything between arginine or placebo ingestion and the exercise protocol. An incremental exercise protocol was applied and oxygen consumption was measured during the exercise. Heart rate and plasma lactate levels were measured during the exercise and recovery. Results showed that in the same working loads there was no significant difference for the mean lactate levels and no difference in maximum oxygen consumption (arginine 52.47±4.01 mL · kg(-1) · min(-1), placebo 52.07±5.21 mL · kg(-1) · min(-1)) or in maximum heart rates (arginine 181.09±13.57 bpm, placebo 185.89±7.38 bpm) between arginine and placebo trials. Time to exhaustion was longer with arginine supplementation (1386.8±69.8 s) compared to placebo (1313±90.8 s) (p < 0.05). These results suggest that L-arginine supplementation can have beneficial effects on exercise performance in elite male wrestlers but cannot explain the metabolic pathways which are responsible from these effects.Biology of Sport 08/2014; 31(3):187-91.

- "L-arginine, the natural precursor of NO, may stimulate insulin secretion [42], decrease oxygen consumption [23,25] and ammonia liberation [27] during exercise and regulate vascular dilation [43,44]. A clinical trial showed that a combined arginine and antioxidant supplement improved exercise performance in the elderly [26]. Insulin facilitates glucose transfer to skeletal muscle tissues and subsequent glycogen synthesis [42,45,46]. "
Article: The effect of almond consumption on elements of endurance exercise performance in trained athletes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background Almonds are a healthy tree nut food with high nutrient density. Their consumption has been shown to ameliorate oxidative stress, inflammation, etc. The objective of the study was to examine the effect of almonds on elements of endurance exercise performance in trained athletes. Methods A 10-week crossover, placebo controlled study was conducted. Eight trained male cyclists and two triathletes were randomly assigned to consume 75 g/d whole almonds (ALM) or isocaloric cookies (COK) with equal subject number. They consumed the assigned food for 4 wks and then the alternate food for another 4 wks. They underwent 3 performance tests including 125-min steady status exercise (SS) and 20-min time trial (TT) on an indoor stationary trainer at the start of the study (BL) and at the end of each intervention phase. Venous blood was collected in the morning prior to the performance test for biochemical measurements and finger blood during the test for glucose determination. Carbohydrate and fat oxidation, energy expenditure, and oxygen use were calculated using respiratory gas analysis. Results ALM increased cycling distance during TT by 1.7 km as compared BL (21.9 vs. 20.2 km, P = 0.053) and COK increased 0.6 km (20.8 vs. 20.2 km, P > 0.05). ALM, but not COK, led to higher CHO and lower fat oxidation and less oxygen consumption during TT than BL (P < 0.05), whereas there was no significant difference in heart rate among BL, ALM and COK. ALM maintained higher blood glucose level after TT than COK (P < 0.05). ALM had higher vitamin E and haemoglobin and lower serum free fatty acid (P < 0.05), slightly elevated serum arginine and nitric oxide and plasma insulin (P > 0.05) than BL, and a higher total antioxidant capacity than COK (P < 0.05). Conclusions Whole almonds improved cycling distance and the elements related to endurance performance more than isocaloric cookies in trained athletes as some nutrients in almonds may contribute to CHO reservation and utilization and effective oxygen utilization. The results suggest that almonds can be incorporated into diets of those who undertake exercise training for performance improvement.Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition 05/2014; 11(1):18.

text: The room was comfortable and the bed was great. The TV channel selections were good. Breakfast was a little above average, the choices were limited and so we found another place for muffins to have the next morning to eat before we left, but the coffee was very good. The hotel staff were very friendly. Internet connection was ok.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hilton Garden Inn New York - Chelsea New York City
Clean and decently kept, but nothing particularly special. The location isn't bad, especially if you don't mind walking. The elevators can drive you crazy, as thee are only two and they are used for guests and service personnel. All in all, a perfectly functional business type hotel, with high speed internet, that is good value if you can get a reduced rate.
Comfy and a good deal
Stayed here for one night over Thanksgiving weekend and got a good deal in part because NYC fills up fast that weekend and this hotel was brand spankin new. The location is perfect if you are going to an event at Madison Square Garden, as I was, or traveling into Manhattan via Penn Station. You are also not that far from Times Square at a much better price. The hotel is located in the middle of a block on a relatively (for New York) quiet street.
Rooms were decent sized for NYC. Beds were super comfy. Of course, any brand new hotel will be pretty clean and in good shape. TV was a little confusing to use however. Good channel lineup though.
I would definitely stay here again!
So far, my favorite NYC Hotel
This hotel is located in a business/residential area of Chelsea. The area isn't swarmed by tourists and is relatively quite and secluded. The hotel personnel were welcoming and helpful. The rooms were well kept and well appointed. I did not have any problems during my stay and would recommend this hotel to others. Rooms are large by NYC standards.
Tidy and convenient
Very tidy rooms and a reasonable size. Good location with nice foyer. Slowish lifts. Simple exercise room
Ordentlich und praktisch
Sehr ordentliche und recht gro�e Zimmer. Gute Lage mit einer sch�nen Eingangshalle. Langsame Aufz�ge. Einfacher Fitnessraum.
It was perfect: the room was a decent size, very comfortable beds, clean and modern bathroom, flat screen tv with tons of channels, the staff was incredible, super nice, very helpful, always smiling (Jose at the front desk was especially nice), the breakfast was a knockout (full American breakfast, made to order, great healthy food), great location to get to midtown or downtown/Soho. The elevators were just a little slow (if I HAD to find a negative), but overall really, really great. And reasonably priced compared to other hotels in the city. We had just gotten back from Europe and this hotel beat the pants off all of those and this one was way less expensive. Stop looking for another hotel and book here.
This new hotel is perfect: Great location near the Fashion Institute of Technology, helpful staff, subway on the corner, quiet, sunny, reasonable room size, free wireless internet, super-comfortable beds. There is even an abundance of electric outlets in all the right places. I have absolutely nothing negative to say. Great hotel for the business traveler or for a weekend getaway. This 'Garden Inn' is fittingly located on a side street lined with flower wholesalers. Easy walk to Chelsea, Penn Station and Fifth Avenue shops. Will stay here next time I go to New York. (I'm not submitting photos because the rooms look EXACTLY like they do on the hotel website)
Dieses neue Hotel ist perfekt: Super Lage in N�he des Fashion Institute of Technology, hilfsbereite Angestellte, U-Bahn an der Stra�enecke, ruhige, sonnige und vern�nftig gro�e Zimmer, kostenloses Internet, und super bequeme Betten. An allen passenden Ecken im Zimmer findet man ausreichend Steckdosen. Ich habe einfach nichts Negatives �ber das Hotel zu berichten.
Es ist ein fantastisches Hotel, sowohl f�r Gesch�ftsreisende als auch f�r einen Wochenendausflug. Dieses Garden Inn liegt passenderweise in einer Seitestra�e, in der es viele Blumenh�ndler gibt. Man kann Chelsea, Penn Station und die Gesch�fte auf der 5th Avenue gut zu Fu� erreichen. Wenn ich das n�chste Mal nach New York komme, dann werde ich wieder hier unterkommen. Ich habe keine Fotos angeh�ngt weil die Fotos auf der Website des Hotels genau der Wirklichkeit entsprechen.
Good Hotel, Bad double charging
Stayed here on the second night after it opened.
As you'd expect the hotel was in good condition. The staff were friendly and helpful but still finding their feet.
The rooms were a reasonable size for new york and were nicely laid out.
Comfy beds but noisy aircon unit.
There is no safe in the room which is a bit of a hassle as you have to use a deposit box at reception which is a pain.
All in all i was happy with the hotel and my 2 night stay until i found out i was charged twice. Once when i prepaid on Hilton.com and then again by the Hotel itself.
When i rang to have this rectified the Hotel first tried to tell me i'd spent over $900 bucks on incidentals which was laughable. When they eventually admitted there error i requested they reverse the transaction instead of refund as otherwise the currency flucuations wouls leave me out of pocket.
As you can guess they refunded ignoring my request and cost me an additional €40 which i now have to chase Visa for.
So Hotel good Staff friendly but incompetent....
Brand New and Beautiful
Brand New hotel. I wasn't expecting it to be new as I did not make my booking. It was a great suprise to learn when I checked in that it was only their first week open. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms are perfect. They have great Flat /HD TV's and lots of channels.
I had breakfast in the morning, although not included in the rate it was worth the $15 or so dollars for it. The chef was happy and fast in our orders and the amount of options were well worth it.
I will definitely be staying again.

Another ultimate tourist thing to do was watch a game of baseball at the New York Yankees stadium, which we did.

JaCoby Jones has figured out what works for him in the South Atlantic League. And he didn't get away from that formula for success on Saturday night.
"I've been trusting my hands and hitting the mistakes pitchers make," the Pirates' No. 12 prospect said. "When pitchers throw the fastball across the plate, I can't miss. I look for the fastballs, and I haven't been missing when I get them. That's essentially what I did tonight."
Jones hit his third grand slam of the season and collected a career-high five RBIs while going 3-for-4 to power Class A West Virginia's 13-3 rout at Lexington.
"I really didn't think about that, but since [I've been told], it feels really good," the 22-year-old shortstop said of his career night. "It was a grand slam and a sac fly, and I was just trying to get on base. But it feels good."
Jones, who reached base four times, is batting .333 since the end of June. The grand slam was his sixth homer in his last 10 games and his 22nd of the season, leaving him two behind Hickory's Travis Demeritte for the league lead.
"I've been swinging pretty good lately," Jones admitted.
The LSU product plated his first run in the opening inning. With leadoff man Michael Fransoso on third and nobody out, he lifted a high curveball from Lexington starter Pedro Fernandez into right field for a sacrifice fly.
"Anytime you're up with runners in scoring position with less than two outs, you want to do your job," he said. "I was looking to get a pitch up and hit it in the air or something I could hit well. It felt good, especially with hitting a curveball to the opposite field. That let me know my swing was good for the night."
Jones popped out in the third but singled in the fifth and seventh and was hit by a pitch in the eighth. His two-out slam in the ninth off reliever Jose Miguel Rodriguez capped an outburst in which the Power scored nine runs over the final two innings.
"As soon as I hit it, I knew it was going out," he said. "It was a line-drive shot, but the wind was going out and the left fielder stopped moving almost right as I hit it.
"It puts a dagger in the other team -- four runs in one swing, to bring four runs around just like that. It's a big momentum-changer in a close game. We were already up big, but it was still really fun to hit a grand slam and get the RBIs."
Wyatt Mathisen, Pittsburgh's 15th-ranked prospect, was 4-for-5 with two doubles, an RBI and two runs scored.
"He's been swinging it really well lately, getting hot, and getting hot when we need it the most," Jones said. "All of our guys have, but Mathisen especially. And he's a good third baseman -- and this is his first year playing there."
Henry Hirsch (4-6) struck out six and allowed one hit over three innings of scoreless relief to get the win.
Dominique Taylor went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored for Lexington.

Greens and Black Eyed Peas will be served at grand gala gourmet dinners for New Year's Day, and at small family gatherings in the South. It's the good luck tradition for the new year.
The combo symbolizes money and prosperity in the new year. And greens — specifically turnip, mustard, kale and collard — are the fifth most nutritious group of vegetables grown on earth today. They are like a pharmacy in a bag, loaded with Vitamins A, C, K, folate and beta carotene.
Consumers are trying to figure out what to do with greens. Boil them for hours? Load them up with bacon? Most of our greens are locally grown or grown in Oxnard, one of the few areas in California where you can grow greens year-round. Farmer Roy Nishimori is a third-generation Japanese farmer. He lives, works and breathes greens. Nishimori has taught his workers to be in the fields every single day. They pick it, smell it and taste it every day, waiting for the perfect time to harvest the perfect greens.
Do you know why a big pile of greens becomes a tiny batch once they're cooked? If you looked at a leaf of greens under a microscope, you'll find a very large cell structure. Once you begin to heat the greens, the walls of these cells begin to collapse very quickly. A bag full of greens quickly becomes a small side dish. Not to worry. Just make sure you buy plenty. Today, you can find greens already cleaned, already cut and in a bag. There are usually two bunches of greens in every bag, retailing for around $2 a bag.

My kit came with 2 of the same size hoses, when it clearly should have 2 different sizes. Had to track down the right size myself.

If you are looking for more low end, this is it. No whine when you step on the petal. Installation took about 45 minutes. Follow the instructions carefully as this product can easily be installed the wrong way. I coupled this with a performance air filter, modified the filter case to breathe better and viola', picked up .5 to 1 mpg. Kevin
