Was so itchy
In the morning lots of bugs crawling around. The room had old furniture in it and it was disgusting. No vending machines and it was a place where prostitutes would stay would not recommend this place to anyone
I stayed here two nights on business. The first night I slept well but woke up with a few bites. I told the front desk and they said we must have brought fleas from our home. (Ridiculous) They gave a big bottle of pesticide to spray my room down and assured me it wasn't bed bugs. The next day I...
I slept here one night while traveling through North Hampton and was very pleased with the quality of my bedroom and service. Right as I checked in, the front desk staff greeted me kindly and was very friendly in asking me how I am doing and engaging in small talk. My room itself was clean and tidy with comfortable and...
I stayed at this motel for a couple days while on a business trip. I needed to stay within my budget but wanted to stay in a nice place. This motel did not disappoint me. The room was clean and the staff were friendly. They helped me with directions anytime I needed to find somewhere. All in all I feel...
OnThe room that me and my family stayed in was okay. But the remote didnt work for the tv. The water for the shower took awhile to heat up. The air conditioner had birds or something in it . The sheets and the covers were very itchy. Room smelled. The mini fridge didnt work at all. I paid $100 for...
After staying in Wells we wanted to visit Hampton beach and Portsmouth. The staff at our previous hotel in Wells told us about their sister hotel in North Hampton since they knew of our travel plan. We stayed at the pine haven for about 3 days and absolutely loved it. Rooms are clean and the rates are cheap!.
this place was awsome. the staff was very nice and they provided us with everything we needed for our stay. it is a quiet and loving place. the rooms were very clean and yes they were bug free! hard to find now a days. i will be returning back this year.

According to an article in the Charleston Daily Mail, Charm City Cakes will be providing a five tiered cake for this Sunday's Mountain Stage 25th Anniversary Festivities in Charleston, West Virginia. The connection there is that Katherine Hill is from the area and her dad plays bass for Mountain Stage. The apple mustn't fall far from the tree since Katherine is also a musician in a band called Lexie Mountain Boys. The cake she's making for this sold out event is going to be decorated black and white with the Mountain Stage logo on it. Those of you lucky enough to have already bought tickets to the 25th Anniversary fete have the added bonus of eating a Charm City Cake! Who knows, maybe Katherine will be there to deliver it...keep your eyes peeled!

Rich Jones, the Bell's director of policy and research, on Tuesday testified in favor of a plan to create a Colorado Retirement Security Task Force as an important first step to study ways of helping all of our state's working families build retirement savings.
In his testimony before the House Business Affairs and Labor Committee, Jones noted that "765,000 private-sector workers in Colorado aged 25 to 64 do not have a retirement savings plan at work and another 179,000 do not participate in one that is offered, either because they are not eligible or they chose not to join."

Testimony to the House State, Veterans & Military AffairsGeorge Awuor, policy analystMarch 23, 2015
Policy analyst George Awuor will testify today in in favor of two bills to raise the minimum wage for low-wage and working families in Colorado.
The Bell has long supported increasing the minimum wage. More and more families rely on low-income and minimum-wage jobs to make ends meet, and many workers rely on these wages to support children. Colorado's minimum wage, which is indexed to inflation, is $8.23 per hour.
Thursday was a busy day at the capitol for policy analysts from the Bell, with testimony offered on four bills.
Policy analyst George Awuor testified in favor of House Bill 15-1258, which would create the Family and Medical Leave Insurance (FAMLI) Program to provide partial pay for eligible individuals who must leave work to care for a new child or a family member with a serious health condition or who are unable to work themselves because of a serious health condition.
State economists project Colorado's economy will continue to grow over the next two years. However, uncertainty over the future price of oil and the impact that current lower oil prices will have on the state's economy are wild cards affecting the long-term forecast.
Revenues for state government are also expected to grow, prompting economists from the legislature and the governor's office to project that TABOR rebates will begin this fiscal year.

Prescription Drug Discount Cards:
Savings Depend on Pharmacy and Type of Card Used
GAO-03-912: Published: Sep 3, 2003. Publicly Released: Sep 8, 2003.

While prescription drugs have become an increasingly important part of health care for the elderly, more than one-quarter of all Medicare beneficiaries have no prescription drug coverage. Over the past decade, private companies and not-for-profit organizations have sponsored prescription drug discount cards that offer discounts from the prices the elderly would otherwise have to pay for their prescriptions. These cards are typically administered by pharmacy benefit managers (PBM). Pharmaceutical manufacturers also sponsor and administer their own discount cards. The Administration has been interested in endorsing specific drug cards for Medicare beneficiaries to make the discounts more widely available. Legislative proposals in the Senate and House of Representatives have included drug cards as a means to lower prescription drug prices for Medicare beneficiaries. GAO was asked to examine how existing drug discount cards work and the prices available to card holders. Specifically, GAO evaluated the extent to which PBM-administered drug discount cards offer savings off non-card prices at 40 pharmacies in California, North Dakota, and Washington, D.C., and the differences between PBM-administered cards and cards sponsored by pharmaceutical manufacturers.
Medicare beneficiaries can receive prices with prescription drug discount cards at retail pharmacies that are generally lower than those available to seniors without cards. Prices available for a particular drug tend to be similar across PBM-administered cards. Savings from PBM-administered cards, however, can differ because retail pharmacy prices vary widely. For example, in Washington, D.C., which had the highest median retail pharmacy prices of the three areas GAO surveyed, median savings using a PBM-administered card ranged from $2.09 to $20.95 for a 30-day supply of the nine drugs frequently prescribed for the elderly that GAO examined. This was after accounting for the 10 percent discount for senior citizens given by each of the 14 surveyed pharmacies. Savings in California with the use of a card tended to be lower because 10 of the 13 California pharmacies GAO surveyed participated in the state's Medicaid program (Medi-Cal) and are required to give Medicare beneficiaries the Medi-Cal price. For seven of the nine drugs, savings ranged from $0.44 to $13.06. For the other two drugs the cards offered no savings at Medi-Cal-participating pharmacies because the Medi-Cal prices were lower than the median price available with a PBM-administered card. Savings in North Dakota for the nine drugs ranged from $0.54 to $7.72 even though 10 of the 13 pharmacies there did not offer a senior discount. Any savings achieved with a card are reduced by the annual or one-time fee charged by the PBM-administered cards. Prices available with a pharmaceutical-manufacturer-sponsored card for a particular drug are typically lower than prices obtained using PBM-administered cards, and are often a flat price of $10 or $15. PBM-administered cards differ from pharmaceutical-manufacturer-sponsored cards with respect to eligibility and the range of drugs they cover, as well as the price available with the card. PBM-administered discount cards are available to all adults and can be used to purchase most outpatient prescriptions. Pharmaceutical-manufacturer-sponsored cards are available only to Medicare beneficiaries with incomes below a certain level who have no prescription drug coverage and can be used to purchase only outpatient prescription drugs produced by the sponsoring manufacturers.

It was like we had adopted a set of parents for a day! Terry tried to convince us to visit them in Melbourne and he would take us to a AFL game, it was very sweet.

Hyperbole is a spots cast
Announcers have egos so vast
My ears must have rest
From this lambasting pest
Collection of morons amassed
Author's note: Is it getting worse, or is it just me?

In our heads the season was far from over
so we played a game in late September.
He said, "before the sun sets
can we not take a rest?"
"But we already are, this is baseball remember?"
Copyright © Timothy Hicks
A big baseball player on pitch
Developed a strange kind of itch:
The ball flew up straight
Then down on his pate,
So he blamed the whole thing on a witch!

Baseball is on my mind more,
When frigid winds freeze to the core,
Opening day,
Seems eons away,
Snow shovels strike out, wood bats score!
Copyright © Chaim Wilson
Opening day is finally here
fans will be drinking most of the beer
Red Sox and Yankees will meet
that game should be a real treat
you'll see how rookies deal with the fear

Not all my hits are home runs,
many of them miss the bat;
specators respond with boos...
right there I expect to lose,
and getting angry, I toss my cap.
Copyright © Andrew Crisci
wait a minute this isn't baseball
I won't be able to hit that ball
bigger than marble
in hole it will fall
I'll swing in that hole the ball will fall
He stepped to the plate and spit on his han's.
He spit doffing his cap to cheering fans.
Gave his privates a scratch
Spit another huge batch,
Then knocked a home run clean outta the stan's!

Up came a fellow who was quite plump
The pitcher then threw
Strike one!, then Strike two!
He missed the third ball and fell on his rump!

Eloy's New Mexican Restaurant
Meals that will complete you
By Jennifer Wohletz
I have a confession to make about Mexican food. I am originally from the Midwest (gasp) and I have always loved that region's version of Mexican food (gasp again). I grew up cooking and eating what residents of New Mexico might charitably refer to as "Tex-Mex"-style food, the characteristics of which include enchilada sauce, black olives and massive quantities of sour cream. Nothing made me happier as a kid than for my dad to declare it taco night, because that meant rows of crunchy Old El Paso taco shells, mountains of refried beans out of those little yellow cans and Mexican rice loaded with tomatoes, bell peppers and that strangely intoxicating vinegary taste. We even had "fiesta corn" (translation: bell peppers mean fiesta). Stop gasping now; you may get brain damage and I could be blamed.

The Least Influential People of 2012
Any magazine can do a year-end list of influential people who have accomplished far more than most of us ever will. But only GQ possesses the iron testicles to count down the twenty-five least significant men and women of 2012—a collection of people so uninspiring that we should round them all up and stick them on an iceberg. Please note that these folks are ranked in no particular order, because all zeros are created equal.

Running blog on Coal PortPermalink +
Fri, Jun 03, 2011, 12:56 pm // John Servais
Fri, June 3, 2011
Senator Patty Murray filed a new bill in May to help get Gateway Pacific up to $500 million in U.S. federal grants or loans. Patty? Our liberal, Democratic, environmental Senator? Is she just asking all us environmentalists in Whatcom County to abandon her? Does she really want to spend our tax dollars to destroy the quality of life here in Whatcom County? Is she totally out of touch?
Check out Senate Bill 942 - introduced by Patty just four weeks ago on May 10. I didn't see anything about it in our local daily newspaper. Probably no press release from her office. She is not nuts. But there it is - a bill to dole out billions to the large corporations wanting to ship coal to China. All carefully phrased in double speak.
The fix has been in on this project since it ramped up in February. Senator Murray, Senator Cantwell, Governor Gregoire, and our Representative Rick Larsen are all behind it. They are all in on the fix and were no doubt brought in over the past couple years. What's in it for them? Probably campaign contributions and promises of no aid for their opponents. Stuff like that - stuff we will never know. They don't go out on a limb for a project like this for nothing. Hell, if Gateway Pacific gets a $200 million grant, or if Burlington Northern/Santa Fe gets $300 million for new double tracks to Bellingham, then why not toss a few thousand to Patty? And now - thanks to the Supreme Court - it can be done secretly and directly. We will never know anything. This is how to destroy democracy - and Patty is part of it.
If Patty does not like what I've said above, then let her speak out - and withdraw her bill to give even more money to Goldman-Sachs. Let her visit Whatcom County and tell the residents here she made a mistake and will not support this coal port. Let her tell us she wants to protect the environment.
I'll be adding more to this one post as time goes by.
Todd Granger // Sat, Jun 04, 2011, 8:37 am
This is protecting the environment John.
"It should be our endeavor to cultivate peace and friendship of every nation…Our interest will be to throw open the doors of commerce, and to knock off its shackles, giving perfect freedom to all persons for the vent of whatever they may choose to bring into our ports, and asking the same of theirs."
Thomas Jefferson; "Notes on the State of Virginia"
John Servais // Sat, Jun 04, 2011, 12:36 pm
Todd - you must be a very nice person. And very naive. Yes, protecting the environment - by giving hundreds of millions to Goldman Sachs to build double tracks and rail yards to and at Cherry Point. So nice you bring Thomas Jefferson into this - the man who despised industry and praised agriculture.
Yes - let us cultivate friendship with everyone. What would they like of ours? Coal? Sure - we will dirty ourselves, wreck our environment and trash our county so they can have cheap coal. That way they can save their extensive coal for the future. Friendship. What can you give your neighbor that he might like? Why not cut down the trees on your property that block his views? Maybe give him the wood below your costs. Some friendship. Try the word 'sucker'.
Scott Wicklund // Sat, Jun 04, 2011, 10:03 pm
I believe Senator Murray's spouse actually works for the Stevedore company proposing the Coal Port. I think she preferred the older earmark system than the current one. Senator Murray was one of the signers of a letter to President Obama requesting urgent action on the deficit and using the Catfood Comission recomendations to cut Social Security and Medicare. Strange she would seek funding for Goldman Sachs and Warren Buffett if she believed the deficit required cutting Social Security and Medicare.
Paul deArmond // Sun, Jun 05, 2011, 9:39 am
A few corrections might be in order.
The TIGER re-appropriation bill is a continuation of a national program started in 2009. If there was no Gateway Pacific project, this bill would still have been created. There is a press release and it provides some details of past projects from the previous 2009 legislation:
There is nothing about the Gateway Pacific terminal in the bill. It covers all federal transportation infrastructure, highways, ports, rail, everything in all 50 states. It's national and the grant and loan amounts could be anywhere between $1 million and $500 million. Gateway might benefit from this funding, but it will be fighting for it's place at the trough along with every other project in the country.
Rob Murray, Patty's husband works as a computer consultant for SSA and it has been reported since 2004 when Rick Anderson did his usual job in the Seattle Weekly of trying to create controversy without much substance:
I've heard some wild estimates of the amount of train traffic. So a little poking around found this railfan site:
They are talking 24 million tonnes per year. A big coal train will be about 15,000 tonnes. That's 1,600 trains per year delivering coal and then turning around empty. Spread over a year that's about eight to ten additional trains coming and going, empty and full. I think we have about six trains a day now, so we're looking at maybe 16 trains a day, north and south as a result of the Peabody/China contract.
Back when Hershey bars were a nickel, there was a lot of train traffic through Bellingham. I wonder if some of the local railfans could dig up information on what the peak traffic through Bellingham was in the past. They tend to be good at that sort of thing.
Hue Beattie // Sun, Jun 05, 2011, 10:45 pm
thank you Paul for correcting the info on the
transportation bill.

Thomas Jefferson may have liked agricultural industry over "factory" industry but was wise enough to say this….
"A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government."
Thomas Jefferson
Todd Granger // Tue, Jun 07, 2011, 10:51 am
Jefferson dispised industry John?
Discussing the public business to our NorthwestCitizens?
"Commerce is the great engine by which we are to coerce them and not war."
To Meriweather Lewis 1808, looking for the Northwest passage?
"Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none."
1st Inaugural 1801
"We must place the manufacturer by the side of the agriculturalist…Experiance has taught me that manufactures
are now as necessary to our independance as to our comfortTo Austin 1816
Ag, manufactures, commerce, and navagation, the four pillars of our prosperity, are the most thriving when left most free to Individual enterprise."
First Annual Message to Congress, 1801
And Jefferson wanted to cut down a few trees too.
Edu. for Teddy Roosevelt.
"Were they to make an opening thro' the isthmus of Panama, a work much less difficult than some even of the inferior canals of France, however small this opening should be in the beginning…" 1786
"When a new invention is supported by well known principals, & promises to be useful, it out to be tried."
Thomas Jefferson to Robert Fulton, working on a steam engine, 1810.
Naive John?
That's 3 recent generations that put this Nation here today. Goldman Sacks, gave you me and everyone everthing we wanted.
Jeffersons Virgina was an ag state, and George Washington, headed to Massachuettes to get a few manufactured products.
to assist in Free Commerce, not the old english model of control shown best right here in the 4th Corner.
Jefferson, July 4th 1776
"For cutting off our trade with all partsa of the World."
Todd Granger // Tue, Jun 07, 2011, 12:46 pm
The American Manufacturing Clause, Jefferson, 1776 to Washington 1777;
"for cutting off our trade with all parts of the World."
David Camp // Sat, Jun 25, 2011, 11:44 am
If this project is such a good idea, why does our Senator need to sponsor a corporate welfare bill to provide government funding?
Hasn't Goldman Sachs already stolen enough of the public treasure? Whose interests is Patty Murray serving by gifting public funds to wealthy corporate interests? Funds which incidentally must be borrowed from the future earnings of our children, long after Senator Murray has retired on her self-voted platinum pension on our nickel.
Hue Beattie // Sat, Jun 25, 2011, 7:06 pm
Mr.Camp please read Paul D'Armond's comment.
Scott Wicklund // Sat, Jun 25, 2011, 9:42 pm
I disagree with Paul's implication there is nothing to see with the Murray's (Robert and Patty) and SSA. Look at the pension Robert has accrued during Patty's tenure in the Senate consulting on SSA's 'puters. Nice work if you can get it and it's sole source for both SSA and Robert Murray. I respect Paul's ability to research stuff. He could do us a favor by putting a chronology of SSA's phenomenal growth in Federal contracts Homeland Security work and Hemingway's contributions to Senator Murray and husband Robert's pension. I fiind it curious that an extreme ideological right winger like Hemingway contributes so much to "liberal" Patty Murray. Just a coincidence that everyone involved " got lucky?"
Scott Wicklund // Sun, Jun 26, 2011, 8:49 am
There is a curious exclusion of dredging in Senator Murray's
bill! That should pique the curiosity of NW folks who know
that many projects that could apply for the funding need
dredging (POB included). SSA will not need any dredging so
it would certainly give them a unique advantage in the free
competition to all for the funding. Ask Senator Murray why
she excluded dredging!
Hue Beattie // Tue, Jun 28, 2011, 12:24 am
Scott ,Rob has worked for SSA for a long time.nothing new there.
the bill, S942, on page 10 2A under the heading" Primary Selection
ion Criteria" states on line 19iv.
A project has to improve the
the environment and reduce greenhouse gas emmissions.
So I doubt that the coal port qualifies.
Michael McAuley // Wed, Jun 29, 2011, 6:52 pm
Scott W. PoB won't be looking for much in the way of dredge dollars other than for maintenance at the shipping terminal, the bay is way too shallow so that Horizon Lines ship you've seen for the last decade is about as big as we could get anyway.

The study was based on results from the Hemodialysis study, known as HEMO a National Institutes of Health-sponsored randomized clinical trial that collected data from 1,846 patients on hemodialysis from 1995 to 2000. (After exclusions, the data set for this new study included 1,426 patients.)
The researchers found that patients who had the most frequent episodes of low blood pressure during dialysis were two times more likely to have a clotted fistula than patients with the fewest episodes.
About $2 billion a year is spent on vascular access in dialysis patients in the United States. Low blood pressure during dialysis occurs in about 25 percent of dialysis sessions.
"Physicians already try to avoid low blood pressure during dialysis through various means," Chang said. "This is just one more good reason to continue these efforts.
"There is so much we don't know about blood pressure in people on dialysis," she added. "We need future blood pressure management studies to look at not only mortality and hospitalization, but also consider vascular access survival as another important endpoint to study."
