I was out riding around on Saturday night and stopped for a breather. I saw a nice, shiny new bike locked up and went over to take a look. To my dismay and shock, it was indeed locked...to a pole with a decent u-lock...that was put around the front fork and two spokes. It was a nice, new, pretty decent Trek and it had quick release wheels. So, with a flip of the lever you could have pulled the wheel off, left it and pulled the fork out of the lock.
Jeez! I hung around for a bit to see if the person came back so I could tell them they had better start using a new locking technique, but no one showed. Had no pen or paper so couldn't leave a note either.
I think I had a nightmare the night of a person losing their nice, new, bright bicycle. The horror. I hope you still have your ride and I hope you learn how to lock it!

Patagonia Tribbles
Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a very nice jacket. I have ordered it in 4T, the color Lara Stripe/Larimar Blue. My son is now the brightest dressed kid on the playground. We get a lot of compliments about the color almost daily. What I love best is that my son does not have to wear a separate fleece layer underneath this jacket to stay warm at like 50°F. I am so happy with this jacket that I already ordered another one in 5T for the next year.

The Department of Labor marks its 100th anniversary this month, yet budget cuts have prevented it from celebrating in style. Now comes consolation in the form of Lent Madness, a whimsical online tournament to pick the best saint.
The winner: Frances Perkins, mother of the minimum wage, architect of the Social Security Act, U.S. labor secretary under President Franklin Roosevelt and the first woman Cabinet member. And yes, an Anglican saint.
"Sequestration prevented us from doing many of the education efforts, including activities about Perkins, that we'd planned in conjunction with the centennial," Labor spokesman Carl Fillichio said. "It looks like Lent Madness may be our small salvation."
The month-long saints competition, which wrapped up today, is the work of Timothy Schenck, rector of St. John the Evangelist, an Episcopal parish in Hingham, Massachusetts. He calls Perkins "an inspirational figure" who put her faith into practice by insisting on caring for the poor and marginalized.
"Voter turnout was exceptionally high this year," Schenck said. "It's rewarding to see so many people engaged with the lives of the saints."
Labor Department staffers weren't the only ones stuffing the ballot box, Fillichio said. The New York State Department of Labor, which Perkins led before going to Washington, was a powerful voting bloc, as was Mount Holyoke College — Perkins' alma mater. "Don't mess with Mount Holyoke women on a mission," Fillichio said.
Perkins, who was canonized in 2009, defeated Hilda of Whitby in the final four, and got 57 percent of the vote to beat out Luke the Evangelist for the tourney's golden halo.

Greater Ventura News
An authentic taste of Peru tucked away in Ventura9 Apr 2013 11:28 AM
Latin culture and cuisine permeates much of southern California. For the most part this is due to the proximity of Mexico, but the influence extends well beyond that. In fact, a popular restaurant in Ventura allows diners to get a taste of Peru, a country whose cuisine is world-renowned but that has yet to gain much of a foothold in the U.S. That may change, however, as more people enjoy meals at Bonanos.
Although it hasn't been around for long - it opened in 2009 - this Peruvian restaurant has already garnered a base of devoted diners who have learned about the South American nation's cuisine through the eatery's authentic menu. In fact, many people enjoy a meal at Bonanos for its touristic pleasures. You may not be familiar with dishes like tamal de pollo or arroz chaufa mariscos, but the helpful staff is more than happy to explain them to you, and the talented chefs make even the most unfamiliar dishes seem comforting.
The truth is that most of the dishes at Bonanos will feel fairly familiar to diners, even those who have never stepped foot in Peru. Perfectly prepared rotisserie chicken appeals to everyone, and rice with filet mignon is a simple-but-elegant dish that almost anyone can get behind.
There are touches of luxury throughout the menu, though. In her review for the Ventura County Star, food critic Rita Moran discussed the surprising delight she took in a high-quality seafood dish.
"The fried calamari was addictive, with its crispy fried pieces in abundance and chunks of fried yucca arranged around a creamy dip sauce," she wrote.
It is the details, though, that make a trip to Bonanos such a unique visit. Dishes come paired with homemade sauces enlivened by fresh cilantro and chili peppers. Even when they are working with dishes that aren't far from the American palate, Bonanos' chefs make sure to include little touches and accents that provide a uniquely Peruvian flavor. Moran was pleased to find a sauteed shrimp dish complemented nicely by a bed of expertly seasoned meat, onions and tomatoes.
"It provided a pleasant introduction to Peruvian spices and herbs," she wrote.
Bonanos' savory dishes may draw the crowds, but the restaurant's desserts make sure they leave satisfied. Homemade ice cream and rich custards and caramels prove that Peruvian cuisine may seem exotic at first blush, but when done right, can satisfy even the most staunchly American stomachs.

Cutting Class is by far one of the worst movies from Brad Pitt's incredibly strong film career. A high school mystery that investigates which of a group of high school guys may be a serial killer, Cutting Class was doomed from the first draft of its script, and there was no chance that any actor, not even one as great as Brad Pitt could save it. It certainly shows that he's come a long way in order to be the Oscar-nominated actor he now is today with films like Moneyball, Inglorious Basterds, and 12 Years a Slave on his resume.

Friday, April 18, 2008
© Copyright 2015 Newton Citizen
NEWBORN - Newborn will not pay an invoice from Newton County for the town's insurance premium tax to fund operations at Fire Station No. 6 on Ga. Highway 213, the Town Council agreed April 7.The funds were due in December, but the council delayed payment because some members wanted to use the money for other purposes. Newton County sent an invoice to the town in the amount of $28,443 on March 14, according to Newton County Executive Officer John Middleton. Now, the council has voted not to pay the invoice, because the last insurance premium tax disbursement the town received in late 2007 covered collections for the year 2006, predating the town's agreement with the county, Councilwoman Suzanne Bean said. Town Attorney Joe Reitman determined the council was not required to designate the money to the fire station, Bean said. "Members of the council felt like that particular period of the insurance premium tax should not have been designated to go to the fire station because it served a year that had nothing to do with the new fire station. We had a volunteer fire station (in 2006)," she said. Based on this interpretation, the disbursement the town will receive later this year covering 2007 would be owed to the county, she said. When asked if the council intended to pay that money toward the fire station, Bean said she could not comment. The town attorney sent a letter alerting the county of the council's vote, she said. Scott Cole, a lawyer with the County Attorney's Office, confirmed the county had received the letter. "We're taking a look at that and trying to evaluate the contract," he said. "I don't know how we will proceed from here." Newborn entered into a contract with Newton County and the city of Mansfield committing its annual insurance premium tax to maintenance and operations of the fire station. Insurance premium taxes are collected by the state on insurance premiums sold within a district, a percentage of which is disbursed to local governments. The city of Mansfield has already paid its $25,000 insurance premium tax disbursement, Mayor William Cocchi said. Residents of Newborn have said they are concerned the town will not receive fire service or will have to pay for the station to respond to calls if the town does not uphold its end of the contract. According to Fire Chief Mike Satterfield, Station No. 6 has answered a total of 105 calls since opening late last year. The number of calls originating inside the city limits of Newborn was 49, amounting to 47 percent of all calls. Newborn Mayor J.W. Cummings said the town is entitled to fire protection since the service is covered in the fire district tax. That tax is collected from a separate millage levied by the county to the Newborn and Mansfield fire districts. Those taxes, collected by the county annually, were previously used to fund volunteer fire services in the district but are now earmarked to fund station operations. About $9,000 is collected annually from Newborn in fire district taxes, according to Middleton. In February, Councilwoman Wanda Cummings told the Citizen that the county initially indicated that only the town's fire district tax would be applied to the station, but that at the last minute the county "demanded" the town's insurance premium tax, as well. District 1 County Commissioner Mort Ewing, who negotiated the agreement with Mansfield and Newborn, said both councils had the chance to review a draft contract and make revisions before approving the final document. Wanda Cummings said the council was considering purchasing a garbage truck to pick up fallen limbs or a bucket truck to do in-house tree maintenance with the insurance premium funds. The council approved the purchase of a $28,000 dump truck in March, but Mayor Cummings said the truck will be paid for through the street and water department funds, not from the insurance money.

By now, almost everyone knows the lurid truth about the military—or they think they do. Last month, after a 2012 survey showed that sexual assault against servicewomen had risen dramatically in the last few years, the media went into overdrive. The Washington Post called it an "epidemic." The New York Times blamed the rise on "the military's entrenched culture of sexual violence."
No wonder Congress has since been feverishly pursuing legislation to deal with this seeming national scandal—from a top-to-bottom overhaul of the military's criminal justice system proposed by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) to mandatory minimum sentences for sexual assault backed by Rep. Mike Turner (R-Ohio).
There is just one problem: Precious little of this story has any basis in fact. Contrary to what many assume, there is no evidence that the military has a higher rate of sexual assault than, say, colleges and universities. Indeed, what paltry evidence there is suggests the opposite. Congress needs to stop, take a deep breath, and avoid adopting legislative remedies it will regret once the crisis atmosphere dies down.
Any institution home to a disproportionate number of young adults will likely have higher than average rates of what the military delicately calls "unwanted sexual contact." That doesn't excuse the behavior—which can range from a provocative pat on the bottom to forcible rape—but it does provide much-needed perspective.
The two most recent studies of campus sexual assault—The Sexual Victimization of College Women (2000) and The Campus Sexual Assault Study (2007)—both show colleges to be worse than the military when their figures are annualized to make them roughly comparable to the military's. At least one older study, The Scope of Rape: Incidence and Prevalence of Sexual Aggression and Victimization in a National Sample of Higher Education Students (1987), makes the military seem like a Junior League garden party.
To be sure, each study asked different questions and collected responses differently, making precise comparisons difficult. Nevertheless the bottom line is clear: There is no evidence that the military is uniquely dangerous to women. Lawmakers who argue high sexual assault rates can harm the military's morale and recruitment efforts are right, but their own overwrought reaction to the 2012 survey can also be harmful.
The military has surveyed its active-duty members on sexual assault repeatedly since 1988. Overall these surveys have shown impressive improvement. Sometimes the improvement has been astonishing—like that reported in the 2010 Workplace and Gender Relations Survey of Active Duty Members, which showed a 35 percent drop in the rate of unwanted sexual contact reported by servicewomen since the last survey in 2006.
The 2010 survey probably spawned the current controversy. Bear in mind that even expertly crafted surveys sometimes produce inaccurate results. The 2010 results were probably too good to be true. If the 2010 results were off the mark, it was inevitable that the results in 2012 would look bad in comparison—even though the 2012 results were still a 10 percent improvement over the results in 2006.
Critics often assume that the military fails to provide sexual assault training or that it is lax in its prosecution of these crimes relative to civilian jurisdictions. But this is not supported by the evidence.
As for training, 96 percent of women and 97 percent of men reported in the 2012 survey that they had received sexual assault training in the last 12 months. These were slight improvements over 2010 and 2006, but the fact is sexual assault training has long been a way of life in the military.
Prosecution rate comparisons are difficult, since civilian jurisdictions are not required to publish statistics. Even if they were, they would be of little use, since for service members, reporting a sexual assault to military authorities is as much like reporting it to an employer as it is like reporting it to the police. The statistics would not be comparable.
Insofar as there is evidence, however, it suggests that the military is now more aggressive in prosecuting sexual assaults than civilian jurisdictions. For example, when a rape involving military personnel occurs off-post, civilian and military authorities both have jurisdiction. On those occasions in fiscal year 2011 on which the civilian jurisdiction took the lead, prosecution rates were 11 percent. In contrast, the military's prosecution rate was 55 percent. Even greater gaps were documented for prosecutions of aggravated sexual assault.

Pittsburgh-area artists cater to an international market
Christina Kapaun lives in Munich, but she keeps Pittsburgh close to her heart.
When she saw a contest posted on the "Jewelry N'at" Twitter page, she quickly entered -- and won -- a custom-made pendant to show her penchant for the Steel City. The hockey fan, who visited Pittsburgh this past winter, owns two Jewelry N'at pendants -- one inscribed with "Pens" and the other displaying the city skyline and Clemente Bridge.
"They are made of high-quality material and are wonderfully handcrafted," writes Kapaun, 37, in an e-mail. "I love extraordinary stuff that is made by people's hands and not coming out of machines in masses."
The Internet has opened Jewelry N'at owner Sharon Massey's business to an international market, but with that comes more competition. To continue to make a profit, small-business owners who sell handcrafted items, like Massey, are debating whether to embrace mechanization or stick with the touch of individuality that customers like Kapaun admire.
Massey, 34, of Highland Park, has a master's degree in metal design from East Carolina University and creates all of her jewelry from metal, especially sterling silver. Because sawing and soldering is tedious, she is considering switching to the process of laser cutting, which would follow a pre-made design and allow products to be identical. The quickness of this process would lead to a greater quantity of items at cheaper prices and the hope of the release of an under-$50 line.
While Massey has had success selling in four Pittsburgh-based consignment shops and online at Etsy.com , she admits she isn't "making very much money," which has made her rethink the way she creates jewelry.
For one, the rising cost of silver has complicated her business. Silver nearly doubled to $40 per ounce last month, but Massey was hesitant to raise the prices of her jewelry, which she generally prefers to keep under $100 per item. On her Etsy account, a pair of earrings shaped from sheet metal to look like the silhouette of a man's "playoff beard" sells for $45, and a "Yinz" pendant made from sterling silver with a gold-plated chain costs $76.
For now, Massey has decided to stick to her craft: She aims to provide affordable jewelry, even if that translates to less profit.
"The jewelry world is really small, so I know pretty much every jeweler in town, and I don't think anybody could do what I'm doing for the prices I'm (setting)," Massey says.
She is hoping the price of silver will stabilize soon, but said she will make necessary adjustments in the meantime, such as using less silver and more gold-plated materials, as well as recycling her own silver scraps.
Massey works at the Society for Contemporary Craft in the Strip District, and teaches metalsmithing classes at Community College of Allegheny County's North Side campus. She also directs the Martha Gault Art Gallery at Slippery Rock University. In the rest of her time, Massey spends about 10 to 12 hours per week creating Jewelry N'at products. She says her business has its "ups and downs" but that it "reflects the rest of the retail business."
Massey is a member of the group Steel Town Etsy, which allows artists from Western Pennsylvania to promote one another's work. A "Pittsburgh" search in Etsy's jewelry section yields nearly 500 results from different businesses, so individuality is essential to success.
"It's definitely really important to come up with something that you feel strongly about, that's very unique and that nobody else can copy," Massey says. "And be prepared to work really hard."
One or two custom orders are sent to Massey each week. Recently, a customer wanted her to incorporate a black-and-gold taco into an original piece of jewelry.
Jewelry N'at is marketed mostly via social media, through Twitter and Facebook, which allows international customers to discover her products. And because the city is so saturated with Pittsburgh merchandise, out-of-state customers provide the most business.
Despite the pressure of operating a handcraft business, Massey believes she always will have loyal customers, like Kapaun, who appreciate her products for their quality, quirkiness and Pittsburgh flair.
"I love the designs," Kapaun writes. "They are beautiful, created with lots of small, but awesome details and often come along with a certain sense of local humor."

Raekwon sits down with Sway to speak on the prospect of a Wu-Tang 20th anniversary reunion LP, explaining that conditions have to be "just right" for it to happen.
I am getting mixed signals from the internets. Some sites ans specifically the Wu-tang official Facebook page say the LP is already started yet I see interviews like this that cast serious doubt it'll happen… So what to believe? I hope it happens as a huge fan but only if everyone brings their a game, no phoned in verses, they better all sit down together to write their verse for cohesive songs not random cut and paste verses that mke no sense together like every LP they have done since their 2nd. RZA needs to produce the entire thing but with crusty old samples not his synthesized orchestra crap he has been doing lately.

A Showcase Of Talent: The Department Of Medicine's 2014 Research Forum
June 13, 2014
A. Koneti Rao, MD was presented with the 2014 Distinguished Scientist Award by Henry Parkman, MD.
The Department of Medicine showcased the talent of its young physicians at the 2014 Sol Sherry Fellows and Residents Research Symposium – held on June 11, in Temple University School of Medicine's (TUSM) Medical Education and Research Building (MERB).
The symposium featured poster and oral presentations representing a wide variety of ongoing clinical and translational research projects. Presenters and faculty exchanged insights and enjoyed stimulating discussions about their research interests at the forum, which is named in honor of former TUSM Dean and Department of Medicine Chair Sol Sherry, MD (1916-1993). Oral and poster presentations were judged by Department of Medicine faculty, and the best received Sol Sherry Awards for Excellence in Research.
"This year's 58 presentations reflect the wide range of research interests within the Department of Medicine and demonstrate that the quality of that research remains high. It is truly an inspiring event," added A. Koneti Rao, MD, Sol Sherry Professor of Medicine; Professor, Sol Sherry Thrombosis Research Center and Pharmacology; Director, Benign Hematology, Hemostasis and Thrombosis; and Co-Director, Sol Sherry Thrombosis Research Center – who has been organizing the annual showcase almost since its inception.
"This symposium has been an annual tradition for more than 30 years, and gives our youngest colleagues the opportunity to share their research insights with peers and faculty across the various subspecialties in the Department of Medicine," said Henry Parkman, MD, Professor of Medicine and Director of Temple's GI Motility Laboratory, who chaired the Residents' oral presentations at the symposium.
Dr. Rao, a faculty member at TUSM since 1979, was presented at this year's event with the 2014 Distinguished Scientist Award, for his major contributions in the areas of hemostasis and thrombosis. He delivered a lecture at the symposium summarizing his research into the molecular and genetic mechanisms of inherited disorders of platelet function and human deficiencies in key platelet signaling proteins, and vascular diseases. Dr. Rao has served in several leadership positions at TUSM – including Associate Dean for the Temple MD-PhD program (2001-2005), Director of the Sol Sherry Thrombosis Research Center (2005-2011), and the Chief of Hematology section (2005-2013).
"It's a tremendous honor to be recognized by peers at one's own institution," said Dr. Rao. "The Department of Medicine and Sol Sherry Thrombosis Research Center have been my home ever since I started my professional career. I am grateful to the members of my laboratory and for the rewarding collaborations I have had, over the span of many years, with many colleagues at Temple and outside," he added.
Congratulations Winners!

That is where my heart truly has always been. The spin-offs feel like filler.
But does everyone feel that way? I don't question that at least one of the spin-offs was mediocre, but I do wonder if such a thing precludes another series. Revisionist history is a potent commodity. People who bash the spin-offs forget that the third season of
Star Trek
was also mediocre aside from a few memorable episodes ("The Enterprise Incident," "The Tholian Web"). The perception of TOS has changed with time because people are more fond of the characters that made up that series.
I'm more fond of Kirk and Spock and always have been. I'm sure nostalgia plays a part in it but it isn't the only reason.
With Berman Trek, we got increasing dull characters, characters who frequently looked down on other cultures because they weren't like humans (I still shake my head over Picard's reprimand of Worf in regards to Duras) and a really odd morality promoting that it was better to allow entire civilizations to die in some odd idea that it's better that they die than see someone more advanced and that because your explorers it gives you a right to trample over others borders.
In TOS, we saw characters that learned that many times their first read on a situation wasn't the right one and they learned from it. During the Berman-era, it seemed like we were the only cultured species out there and we were out there to teach everyone how great we are.
For me, the Berman-era series have aged poorly. I'm not everyone nor do I profess to be. But we already have six-hundred hours of "other Trek" and less than a hundred of Kirk and Spock. I'm one that thinks the core of Trek needs to be explored again. YMMV.
"If we're going to be damned, let's be damned for what we really are." - Jean-Luc Picard, "Encounter at Farpoint"

Severe Weather Makes First Appearance in Marion County in 2013
Posted By News On May 20, 2013 @ 6:30 am In Today's Local News | Comments Disabled
KNIA/KRLS's Severe Weather Action Team went live yesterday after the National Weather Service called for a Severe Thunderstorm Warning in northwestern Marion County. The warning was called just before 8pm Sunday, and went on for about 20 minutes. Last night's system brought 0.93 inches of rain in all. More severe weather could occur today; the National Weather Service says Marion County has a slight risk for severe weather late this afternoon and evening.
Iowa's tornado-free streak also ended last night after at least two tornadoes touched down in parts of the state. That streak ends at 359 days.

Rated 3.8 out of 5 by 805 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Nivz This hotel was very enjoyable This hotel was overall a pleasant to stay at. The staff was on there toes with the guests needs. The only thing I did not enjoy was paying for parking every night. I am a Starwood employee so I didn't expect parking to be a fee and be a expensive one at that. But I did get good rest! September 15, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Zcp123 Not as expected The hotel itself should have been as pictured on the site. Very surprised that it was not it at all. It was small and some areas were not clean such as pool area and rooms. August 31, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by DavidGolfer Lots of Room For Improvement First the good: Frequent shuttle service to airport. Nice gym. Fast elevators. Quiet close toilet seats in the bathroom. Now the not so good: Sloooooow check-in. Long line and long time at the desk even for SPG members. (I frequently stay at a competitor that has pre-printed the registration and even highlighted the fields were I need to initial and sign. Check-in there takes 90 seconds max.) Sloooooow service at the bar. Maybe it is contagious. My room was lacking basic amenities such as a hotel directory, note pad and pen, and television channel listing. August 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by djthedj14 A peaceful stay I really enjoyed my stay at the Westin. The bed was so comfortable and atmosphere was so genuine. I would recoomend anyone to come and stay here because you will be so amazed and proud of the hotel experience here. Thanks again Westin! August 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by SpringGrigg Great place to be!! It was one of the best hotel stay I have had. Thank you for the sweet hospitality!! August 24, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mike0321 This hotel is excellent This was my first time staying at any Westin Hotel. I must say all of my expectations were met above and beyond. I will be staying here again in the future. August 17, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by djkmdre "This is a smoke-free hotel. Breathe Westin™". DEFINITELY NOT!! Stayed overnight in Room 520. Strong smell of smoke when first opened door. Complained to front desk and was told that smoke would have been from prior guest as they are a smoke-free facility. Really!! The odor was not of recent smoke but of a longstanding, deep seated, stale smoke like the smell of a smokers home/car. This stench is most likely imbedded in the carpeting which is worn, stained and in dire need of replacement. No apology or offer to credit room charge/free meal when I complain despite stating they are smoke-free and placing blame on prior guest. Never staying here again. August 11, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Johnny2 Unable to sleep First, let me say that the restaurant was excellent! However, the AC didn't work in my room and it was so hot that I couldn't sleep. I would have asked for a new room but it was too early in the morning and I had an early flight. Too bad because I had one of the best dinners that I've ever had...it did cost me $50, but worth it. August 7, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Ann542 Family Visit My family and I stayed at this Hotel for 2 nights, it was our last family vacation for the summer. The stay was great, our room was very comfortable, very clean and the housekeepers kept our room stocked with fresh towel and our beds were made daily. Guest services (Javanese) has an excellent personality. She was observed giving a first guest a tour of the property, I was quite impressed! Staff did a great job. August 4, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Doobers Excellent hotel We had just come off a four day convention and we had a free day day before our flight left so we stayed out by the airport for convenience. The staff was amazing...the check in was so smooth as was the check out!! Restaurant was great , nice atmosphere and the food was delicious! Room was lovely and had everything we needed and beds were very comfortable so we had a well needed good nights sleep. Highly recommend this hotel!! July 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by jmocarolina Great Hotel with a Phenomenal Staff This hotel has some of the best employees I have ever met! From Ivan at the bar to Sonya in the restaurant, everyone was so warm and genuine. The Valets were excellent. The housekeeping staff was very courteous and efficient. Talking with them made me feel at home. It is obvious that the management team at this hotel is doing a great job! Keep up the good work! July 19, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lele21239 I love this hotel I want to take the time to thank kody the manger at the front desk and Robert the valet manager for taking care of my family for my daughter's bday they had such a great time thank you everyone July 13, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dogman203 Nice Hotel This was a nice hotel close to the airport you can see the jets landing but can not hear them. The restaurant is nice and the bar with the huge TV was fun to just sit relax and watch the game. July 9, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by Judyshah Location is good. I was not that happy because when we ask for lotion they said because of high volume they do not have it. They should have provided us for each night we stayed . July 6, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by LockedOutGuy Silent Nights An all around well managed property with an amazingly friendly and helpful staff. July 3, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rookie27 Nice Little Getaway This isn't the first time I'd stayed here (I wasn't an SPG Member) on business Sept '14. Loved It then, and just the same Loved It again. Most definitely coming back as I find myself taking little "stay-cations" more! June 30, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Calvin3 Perfect stay My brief stay at this Westin location was a perfect one... My newlywed wife and I live in the Atlanta area, but didn't want to stay at home following our wedding ceremony... We chose the this Westin location because it was a beautiful property and it was close to the airport which we were headed to the next morning to fly out for our honeymoon... Once we arrived to the hotel, we were greeted by the valet attendant who offered to assist with our luggage...once inside we were greeted by (leesha) at the front desk....She was very pleasant and was seemingly awaiting our arrival... The lobby/bar area was a little lively that evening, but she assured us she would place is in a room away from that area... With her knowing we were newlywed, she also offered us a complimentary breakfast with the hotel...She was very helpful and the breakfast at the hotel was perfect and exactly what we needed to travel comfortably to aruba for our honeymoon... Our stay there was the perfect exchange between ceremony and honeymoon! Thank you leesha and the Westin family for the hospitality on such a memorable night for my wife and I! June 17, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by stlouisvisitor Not exactly what I expected Waiting to check in was a long wait and guests did not know which desk was open. The floor we were assigned to did not have a working ice maker and the drink machine took my change. The floor smelled like strong baby powder; maybe because to mask the smell of vomit that was in the room with the non working ice machine. And I was not impressed that invoice was slipped under our room door in the middle of the night. You have to pay for parking?! Wow! We needed handicap parking and it was not available. Shame. Had to bring rolling luggage up and down stairs to get to the main lobby. The fridge did not get cold enough. I will not be returning to this particular location any time soon. Also, I did not like the fact that on a weekend the cable company needed to access the rooms to complete upgrades leaving particles from the walls and ceilings in the closet. June 3, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by KWOME Family Excursion We made a family excursion and selected the Westin Atlanta Airport. The overall experience was very good. The check-in was a bit slow, because there was a slight language barrier. Was very surprised the hotel does not offer their guests apple pay. The breakfast buffet was wonderful except for the hockey puck type biscuits, which were incredibly hard. Will return June 1, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Singingsoldier2015 Memorial Day Weekend Golf Outing This hotel was fabulous! I enjoyed the ambiance and the great customer service provided. The room was in a great location and I didn't have to lug my golf clubs up to the room after every round due to the parking. Felt extremely safe and would recommend this hotel to all my friends! May 27, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by ibis316 issues... Wish I could say all was positive...had issues with check-in, breakfast charged when I was told it was complimentary, shower vacillated in heat and strength, requested quiet room, very noisy neighbors in connecting room, and engineering woke me up early in next room... May 23, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by sleeptime SPG needs improvement on registration. The email or faxed letter needs to be attached in the reservation system. Remember customer service is key to all customers. Agent should not argue with the guest. Always be willing to accomodate and please the customer. Being nice and a smile goes a long way. I want to thank Kota for resolving my issues with kindness and professionalism. He represents your brand well. Your sevice teams are awesome. First impessions are long lasting for the service industry. May 20, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by Grace259 My Stay at the Westin Atlanta Airport It did not meet my expectations but the front desk staff was very nice and the house keeping department needs A LOT of improving. May 15, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Travel9347 Perfect hotel for business travel Great experience from check in until check out. My dinner in the onsite restaurant was delicious and they have a variety of super healthy to great desserts, which I tried a mix of both! Even the shuttle drivers were excellent, super friendly and very accomodating. I would recommend to anyone who travels for business to enjoy a night at the Westin! April 15, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by talljohn777 Parking??? Very nice room. Very nice comfortable bed. But not a fan of the $16 additional charge for parking for hotel guests. April 14, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Overnighter1 Great Overnight for early flight out Stayed 1 night and used the extended parking service for a 1 week international trip. Staff was friendly and responsive from the moment we pulled up to the front door right up to the return shuttle trip from the airport. had dinner at the restaurant and found the food to be very good. Room was clean and comfortable. April 14, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by missvivacious My first trip to Atlanta My trip was a simple Friday to Sunday stay. This was my first trip to Atlanta to attend a friend's baby shower. I was not familiar to the area and later learned the hotel location was not exactly near downtown. However, that did not take away from my experience at the hotel, in fact I was very happy with the stay from the time I was picked up by the complimentary shuttle, check-in and given recommendations from staff about how to get around the area. I was also given recommendations of places to eat. The room was clean and up to par. The bed was comfortable with soft pillows. It was nice to have a mini-refrigerator in the room. I had a nice view of the greenery surrounding the hotel. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The icing on the cake happened when I requested a later check-out time due to the later time of the baby shower and I was able to stay in the room comfortably for another hour or so. The breakfast buffet was a nice spread. Lori the bartender was very sweet. April 13, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5 by MrsB41 Does NOT live up to the Westin name! This hotel was a great disappointment!!! This was supposed to be where we spent our honeymoon (3 nights). We chose the Westin because of it's name and the website. The lobby was amazing, but nothing else was. Our reservation was messed up. They had us in a room with 2 double beds. They changed us to a king size room and were told, "we'll give you something special for your honeymoon!" That something special was an awkwardly placed treadmill! The room was horrible! The air was broken, the sink was stopped up in the bathroom, the bathroom counter clearly had not been clean. The carpet felt sticky. The bottom of the bathroom door had huge dents and pieces of wood were missing from the door. We complained the next morning and were given another room and a breakfast voucher (which we were told the night before you get free breakfast anyway from 6-10am). The only difference in the second room was that there wasn't a treadmill! we quickly packed our things and cancelled the rest of our reservation. The ONLY reason we spent one night there is because we had driven from Florida and were dead tired at 12:30am, otherwise, we would have not stayed that night.. I've stayed in another hotel right down the street from this one and prefer that one over this one..........and that hotel is not a 4star! March 31, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5 by kate2050 Difficult night We have stayed at the Westin Airport Hotel in ATL before but this past Tuesday night didn't provide for the usual great accommodation. When we checked into our room, there was a fruit plate addressed to another guest. We never touched it but felt like we were in the wrong room. The room smelled like smoke and we've always had a non-smoking room. Also, at 3:30am, the attached room guests were loud, turned on a radio and generally prevented any additional rest for us. We asked them to for quiet, but to no avail, until they finally slept themselves after 4:30am. Not Westin's best night.... March 26, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Brad1000000 Nice Airport-oriented Westin I stayed here primarily due to the reasonable rate and proximity to the airport. The offer a frequent hotel (every 20 minutes) so I dropped off the rental car to avoid the $16/night parking charge. There are basically no platinum benefits; I apparently received a "deluxe" room, but it seemed pretty normal. I got in late and left early in the AM, so didn't try the restaurant, which occupies most of the lobby area. I would stay here again as the rate was reasonable and easy access to the airport.

These Gun Print Nude Tights ($15) pack some serious heat with their double dose of firepower. Use them to pump an extra level of badass into your look. (Just skip wearing them to school or the airport.)
"sketched illustration" is redundant and "double barrel" usually just refers to a shotgun
