The Amazing Hostel SayulitaSayulita, Mexico
Amazing hostel has a wonderful location in Sayulita, but there are a few unfortunate aspects to it. I had a private room, and the maid would try to come in daily without asking-even after I'd previously asked her not to. I realized it when I walked out of the shower into my room, naked, and saw that she had opened both my blinds and my window facing a common outdoor area in the hostel. They also have no hot water. They say you don't need it, but at night or after a rainstorm you certainly do!

Casa Al Sur TerrazaMalaga, Spain
This place is brand new, so don't be frightened by the lack of reviews. It's fantastic, though still undergoing construction. It's clean, bright, and has a great vibe. There's even a terrace to lounge around on. I definitely recommend this hostel, and a month or two after this is posted it should be even better.
Second Home HostelIstanbul, Turkey
This hostel was fantastic- I'd really recommend staying here. The staff was nice, the place was clean and well located, and you even get breakfast in the morning. It doesn't get much better than that.
Athens International Youth Hostel - Victor HugoAthens, Greece
When you arrive at this hostel you think it's an absolute dump, and wish that you had booked a place with water pressure and internet that worked in your room. Then you see the rest of Athens and realize that this place is preferable to half of the city. It's not a bad place- the staff is fairly helpful and the rooms are decent. But if I were you I'd just go to Rome.
Itinere HostelGranada, Spain
I was under the impression that all hostels are small, busy and dirty, but Itinere certainly proved me wrong. It's on a small street nestled between the busy Gran Via and a small road with local shops, so it's close to anything you might need and you have the option between tourist and local. The room was spacious, very clean, well lit, and comfortable. It's owned by a young brother and sister duo, both of whom speak English well. All in all, it's a wonderful place to stay.

I used to sit in the press box at Shea Stadium for several years, and since I wasn't exactly the most important guy in the room, my seat was below a large pipe whose purpose I never quite understood. All I know is that it often dripped what I assume was water, though I usually try not to think about the source. I'm just glad they have a nice new stadium there now so this kind of stuff doesn't happen anymore.
(New name, same problems.)
What's that? Citi Field is already a crumbling mess? FANHOUSE's Tom Fornelli, citing a NEW YORK POST report, says the new stadium is riddled with structural issues even though the debut season isn't even over yet. No word on whether the issues are related to a shirtless Tony Bernazard challenging the stadium to a fight.
Of course, the POST is, well, the POST, so you take what they print with a grain of salt. But they have an "insider" quoted as saying this:
"Yankees fans must have built the place," an insider scoffed.
"Sh- - -y Field — that's what we call it."
And I just thought it was because of the baseball being played there.
FANHOUSE's Fornelli summarizes the laundry list of problems chronicled in the POST article this way:
Fred Wilpon had to climb four flights of stairs to his office because an elevator wasn't working, Mo's Zone in the outfield completely flooded after some pipes collapsed, a 24-square foot sign fell on the promenade during a day off, and then there's the falling concrete just for good measure.
I really hope that the "Mo's Zone" is named after Mo Vaughn, because that would be an entirely appropriate fate for it.
This all doesn't even address the fact that Jerry Seinfeld's suite was taken over by mold, and stadium workers actually tore the walls down to try and figure out how to fix it.
Not surprisingly, at least one assemblyman is not too thrilled that a building that used $697 milllion in public money is already breaking down:
Assemblyman Richard Brodsky (D-Westchester), who criticized the city Industrial Development Agency over its deal to give the Mets and Yankees tax-free bonds to build new stadiums, said there should be an assessment of the stadium's condition now that the inaugural season is drawing to a close.
"Taxpayer money is going to build the stadiums for these wealthy private entities, and it's not clear that anyone is checking on anything," Brodsky said. "No one knows who's accountable."
The POST also says that federal authorities are investigating the contractors that built the stadium for alleged overbilling. I would say this might not be a good sign for said contractors.

Firefighters make quick work of Clarendon blazeStaff Report | December 06,2013CLARENDON - Firefighters from three towns responded to a chimney fire that was put out before it could do much damage to a home on Route 7B North in Clarendon.
A corner of the home at 614 Route 7B was in flames when firefighters arrived at the scene around 8:30 p.m. Friday, according to Clarendon Fire Chief Norman Flanders.
However, despite a pump malfunction on one of the Clarendon fire engines that required assistance from departments in Rutland City and Wallingford, the blaze was quickly brought under control.
No one was injured in the fire. Damage to the home appeared to be minimal.MORE IN This Just InPROCTOR A citizen committee has finalized a survey to poll residents on a new town office...

Strawberry Hill, Gothic Revival home of Horace Walpole, located on the River Thames in Twickenham (now in Richmond upon Thames, an outer borough of London), Eng. Walpole bought the house as a cottage in 1747 and gradually transformed it into a medieval-style mansion that suggested in its atmosphere the setting of his famous Gothic novel The Castle of Otranto (1765).

|Seoul Chuncheon Gosokdoro
|Seoul Chunchon Kosoktoro
The Gyeongchun ( Seoul–Chuncheon ) Expressway (Korean:서울춘천고속도로) is an expressway in South Korea, connecting the cities of Seoul and Chuncheon. It is 62 kilometers long, with two lanes of traffic in each direction and ten interchanges. It shares the number "60" and operates by Seoul-Chuncheon Highway Corporation, as a privately financed toll road. The extension to the end at the eastcoast ist under construction and planned to be open end 2015.
The estimated travel time between the two cities is roughly 40 minutes, saving about more than half of the previous travel time on the National Road No.46. Due to the reason as a 'privately funded' road, the toll for a passenger car is 5,900 won, and after lots of complaints from the people and organizations of Northwestern Gangwon, the toll for the user living in Chuncheon city and its surrounding region will be 5,200 won.[1]
Construction was completed on July 15, 2009, with an active passenger-passing and its official opening ceremony held on the same day, at a total cost of slightly over 2 trillion won. According to the South Korean Governmental decision made on December 2002,[2] its original name is Seoul-Yangyang Expressway, however, it will be expanded completely on 2014, because, though the construction of a phase from Chuncheon Junction to East Hongcheon Interchange finished (earlier than expected) on October 30, 2009, by public-funded KEC, its last phase, East Hongcheon to Yangyang has just recently been started on May 2009.
Gapyeong County Bus No. 8004, Gwangju Urban Bus No. 8002, and Namyangju Urban Bus No. 8012 use this highway.

Thanks for sharing my house with others.. Holloween is one of our favorite times of the year for decorating. It is also my Daughters Birthday so of course I just have to go a tad overboard to celebrate her big day!.. The whole set up takes me about a week to complete. you really need to come by on Hollween to get the whole effect. Hurricane Sandy almost took everthing down but we managed to dodge the worst part of the storm.

I would like to get a better handle of the absolute and especially relative performance (and the drivers of it) in my Etrade stock portfolio account. I like the Account Performance Report on the Etrade website which displays an account's performance against the S&P500. However, it has severe shortcomings. Two that I can think of is that I would like to see a further breakdown by which individual positions are driving over and underperformance within the account. Another is that rather than in over or underperformance of an account I might be interested in the over and under performance of a strategy. One account might contain position from different strategies, and a given strategy's positions might be spread out over different accounts.
For example, I want to know how my China strategy is performing vs. the S&P, and I have some China positions in my Taxable account and some in my traditional IRA account. Or how my ETF strategy is performing, when I have some positions in T...

Skin cancer is the most common of all cancers, and 90 percent of all skin cancers are caused by sun over-exposure. With this in mind, The Headwear Association (THA) is hosting the eighth annual "Hat Day in the Sun" on Thursday, June 11th, 2015.
Hat Day in the Sun is an annual national public awareness campaign to educate adults and children about how the right hat can protect against skin cancer, sun damage, and premature aging. To celebrate this event, THA members will be giving away FREE wide-brimmed sun-protection hats in cities across the country, including New York, Milwaukee, Boulder and Dallas. This year's Eighth Annual Hat Day in the Sun event will be the biggest yet, with more locations than ever before!
If you do not live in one of the host cities, you can win a Sun Protection hat on the THA Facebook page. To win a free Sun Protection hat, keep an eye out for the Hat Day in the Sun Giveaway posts. The free hats are being provided by Broner Hats, Dorfman-Pacific, Bollman Hat Company, Magid Hats, Wallaroo Hats, San Diego Hat Company, HATCO and Head'n Home Hats.
The rates of melanoma have been rising for at least 30 years. The American Cancer Society's estimates for melanoma in the United States for 2015:
Cancer of the skin is by far the most common of all cancers. Melanoma accounts for less than 2% of skin cancer cases but causes a large majority of skin cancer deaths.
Fabrics are rated with a UPF rather than SPF, which only applies to sunscreens. UPF labels indicate how much of the sun's UVR is absorbed by the product's fabric. For instance, a hat with a UPF of 50 allows just 1/50th of the sun's UVR to reach the skin.

Good Morning Tri-State at 6am
Four weeks to fix Cincinnati's potholes
The 2014 Pothole Blitz should smooth out the ride for drivers, and smooth out the problem blamed for flat tires, busted alignments and maybe a few twisted ankles.

The city of Cincinnati has repaired more than 99 percent of the potholes reported to it so far in 2015. (Dwayne Slavey/WCPO)
CINCINNATI -- The City of Cincinnati began four weeks of hard work to repair potholes that winter left behind, despite continued snowfall.
A city project, 2014 Pothole Blitz began Wednesday afternoon in Evanston. It's a concentrated effort to repair potholes after brutal winter weather.
As public services workers make over streets with pothole problems, spokesman Larry Whitaker said they need help from the public to identify the areas where potholes developed during harsh weather.
The city asks that potholes are reported with the City Hall app , available for smartphones, an online submission or through the customer service center .
The app, Whitaker said, uses GPS technology to locate where you're standing, so the exact location of the pothole can be tracked. Then, users can add a description, and simply hit send.

Even though the four-week pothole attack should show major improvement as spring rolls in, the city said crews will continue road work, if needed. As it stands, crews said the 2014 Pothole Blitz should run through April 9.
WCPO reporter Shannon Kettler was in Evanston for the 2014 Pothole Blitz launch.

marcia neuman
After several years of working as an Audiologist, I took time off to raise my two children. When I decided to return to the work field, I was looking for a change. My passion for working out and helping other learn how to keep their bodies healthy turned in to a new career. While a student in martial arts, I learned the importance of proper technique and as a participant in TRX classes, I saw the incredible results from functional training. Now as personal trainer, I combine these lessons to create workouts for my clients that use functional movements to improve their core strength and stability so that they are able to do what they do in their daily lives better. If you are ready to enhance your quality of life by becoming healthier, stronger, and improving your overall fitness level, contact me by email at email@example.com or by calling 832-754-4344.

Article Summary
In order to surf those massive walls of salt water known as big waves, brave surfers usually need to get towed in by a personal watercraft (PWC). This presents some logistical problems (i.e. having to bring a buddy along to tow you around all day). The WaveJet gives you the power you need without requiring a large tow-in vehicle or separate person.

about me
I'm a thirty five year old college grad seeking a guy for long talks and lots of laughs. Hopefully leading to something more. Everyone always thinks I am 25 but I'm honest about my age.I grew up in Texas and went to the University of Texas at Austin (Go Horns!) but ended up finishing my degree in Boston and loved it. I am a Registered Nurse who just moved to Vegas. I seem to move a lot but would love to meet the love of my life and settle down. I love to travel. I have a passport and am not afraid to use it. I enjoy going to movies, museums, and the theater. I love dance, be it jazz, pilates, tap, and yoga. I love going to sporting events (mostly football and baseball. I love my Boston and Texas teams. GO Pats/ Cowboys and Sox and RANGERS!). I like to hike and visit national parks and I actually really enjoy camping. There is nothing better that sleeping under the stars. (But only with an aerobed...lol) I also know when not to take myself seriously. I love silly cartoons like Aqua Teen Hunger Force and Family Guy. TV shows like The Office crack me up. I am fun loving and always seem to have a smile on my face. OK random serious facts about me. #1)I love being a nurse. It really is a privilege to to see new life come in the world and to hold the hand of someone on their way out of this life. I work in the ER . #2) I despise game playing and drama. Both at work and especially in my personal life. I'm a very open and honest person, and am looking for the same in a man. #3)I'm a romantic. My parents were married for 40yrs (after meeting in their 40's) They were always holding hands or cuddling. I want what they had. I was truly blessed to have them for parents. (They both passed away a few years ago).
about my fling
I am open to any "type" of man. I am looking for someone who is intelligent, funny and a gentleman. I also would like to meet someone who loves the theater and sports.

"If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls who live under tyranny." ~ Thomas Jefferson
"Each act, each occasion, is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join with you in resisting somehow. You don't want to act, or even talk, alone; you don't want to 'go out of your way to make trouble.' Why not?—Well, you are not in the habit of doing it. And it is not just fear, fear of standing alone, that restrains you; it is also genuine uncertainty.
"Uncertainty is a very important factor, and, instead of decreasing as time goes on, it grows. Outside, in the streets, in the general community, 'everyone' is happy. One hears no protest, and certainly sees none. You know, in France or Italy there would be slogans against the government painted on walls and fences; in Germany, outside the great cities, perhaps, there is not even this. In the university community, in your own community, you speak privately to your colleagues, some of whom certainly feel as you do; but what do they say? They say, 'It's not so bad' or 'You're seeing things' or 'You're an alarmist.' Source [1]

Spain has made a number of experiments with democracy, sham and actual, but only since the mid-1970s has it succeeded in grounding a democratic system. Then 'the very model of the modern elite settlement' (Gunther 1992) generated a peaceful transition from Franco's authoritarian regime to a democratic polity, and established the conditions in which competitive party politics could develop. Those conditions were not neutral. Rather, strenuous efforts were made to ensure that parties would come forward to take charge of Spain's new democracy (Gunther et al. 1988). The result turned out to have two key aspects. Synthetic parties were created, and a parties state was built.
Spanish parties are synthetic in the sense that they are supported more from above than below. It is true that in recent years all parties have attempted, with some success, to extend their social reach. However, they remain chiefly dependent on the state for survival. This reflects the circumstances of the Spanish transition, when memories both of a failed democratic interlude in the Second Republic of the 1930s, which met all the conditions of polarized pluralism (Sartori 1976), and of the one-party authoritarian state that took its place, promoted a culture not simply of consensus but also of commitment to making sure democracy actually worked this time around. Parties, being a key element of democratic experience the world over, were given a privileged position in the state largely for this reason.
Spain is a parties state in the sense that since the transition many core institutions of government have been colonized and are substantially controlled by parties. As democratic procedures were introduced at all levels of the new polity—central (1977), local (1979), and regional (1980-83)—so parties became the institutions through which much political power flowed. The many protections given to parties, and the vast amounts of patronage placed in their hands by the creation of democratic institutions at national, regional, and local levels, ensured that they became central actors in the new state.
In the early stages of the transition the precise configuration of parties that would emerge was unclear. On the right a rather loose coalition of former Francoists was confident it would take the leading role through its Alianza Popular (AP). On the left

Mathieu Perreault has been down this road before, having to prove himself to Bruce Boudreau and Dale Hunter.
Now, in his second year under Adam Oates, he's back in those same murky waters, not exactly sure how he fits into the Capitals' plans this season.
"So far, I'm just kind of looking at it from the outside and trying to figure it out," Perreault said Monday before catching a flight to Boston for the Caps' fifth preseason game and his second. "Whatever the coaches decide, I can only control what I do on the ice. Things will sort themselves out."
For the time being, Eric Fehr has taken Perreault's spot on the Caps' third line, centering wingers Jason Chimera and Joel Ward. That's the line Perreault centered in the playoffs last season, when he averaged close to 16 minutes a game.
Oates said he has not spoken to Perreault about his role this season, at least not yet.
"Fehrsie's the guy I asked to play something different because we have a logjam and tough decisions," Oates said. "Every guy fights for his life all the time. It's a tough thing in the league. He's got to continue to work on his own game."
Last year, Perreault said his body was a victim of the NHL lockout. He arrived at training camp at 190 pounds, which he admits was "a little overweight" for a 5-foot-10 center.
But as last season progressed, Perreault's weight decreased and his ice time increased. He finished the season with six goals and 11 assists in 39 games, a dip from the 16 goals and 14 assists he had the previous season under Boudreau and Hunter.
When he met with Oates for their end-of-season evaluation, Oates stressed to him that he wanted to see the player that ended the season and not the one that started it.
"Through the course of the year he lost some weight and it looked like he gained a step out there," Oates said. "The year before he added 10 pounds and maybe that slowed him down."
In his first preseason game in Philadelphia last week, Perreault saw nearly 23 minutes of ice time, including nearly 6 minutes on the power play and more than 4 minutes on the penalty kill. He said it's the most he's ever played in an NHL game.
"It's good he has that confidence in me," Perreault said.
Laich rarin' to go: Caps left wing Brooks Laich said he felt "great" after Monday's practice and was eager to play his first game since last April when he left the lineup with a right groin injury. He also tweaked his left hip flexor on the Caps' first day of training camp.
"I feel 100 percent healthy," he said, "able to do everything I want to do with no inhibition or fear."
Laich said he's anxious to see what kind of chemistry he can create with center Mikhail Grabovski and right wing Troy Brouwer.
"He communicates very well," Laich said of Grabovski. "He's kind of a bullet up the middle. He's not going to cut back and forth. He's kind of a one-move-and-go-north guy. I really like his game."
Roster moves: The Caps sent goaltender David Leggio and defenseman Cameron Schilling to the Hershey Bears on Monday, trimming their roster to 34. Following Monday night's game in Boston the Caps are expected to cut their roster even further as they attempt to get to the 23-man limit.
