- In letter to CM, VS Achuthanandan bats for Bhatt
Thiruvananthapuram: Former chief minister V S Achuthanandan on Tuesday wrote a letter to chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan, seeking reinstatement of special government pleader Susheela Bhatt in the land grab cases. The government had last week removed Bhatt as part of introducing a new panel of pleaders. Sources close to VS said he mentioned two cases Harrisons Malayalam Ltd and Karuna Estate scheduled for trial in the coming days and requested the chief minister to retain Bhatt till their disposal. Achuthanandan had, after taking over as chief minister in 2006, let Bhatt continue as special government pleader till the completion of pending cases.Bhatt, who was first appointed as government pleader in revenue cases when A K Antony was the chief minister, is one of the few advocates in the state who could understand the nittygritty of land cases. Achuthanandan had, a couple of weeks ago, written to Vijayan seeking removal of around half a dozen senior IAS officers with blemished track record but there was no action on it.
- VS Achuthanandan asks to cast votes for protecting values
Thiruvananthapuram: Opposition leader V S Achuthanandan has asked voters of Kerala to use their franchise to defeat those who have wrecked the values of the Kerala society by using power. "The election on May 16 is not only an occasion to elect our rulers for the next years, but, a chance to protect values that have been achieved by the Kerala society for several years", VS said in an article despatched to media on Friday. The veteran leader hit hard at the ways of Oommen Chandy government and said the fight was between forces that protect truth and compassion and ones that believe in dishonesty and immorality. Mentioning solar scam in which CM's personal assistants got directly involved and had to be fired, VS asked who was responsible if the selected assistants of CM from among 3.25 Cr people got involved in wrongdoings. "An IG level officer destroyed evidence on Saritha's call list. Another man enters women prison by wearing a mask and no guard prevents him. When Saritha wanted to record her statement, the magistrate refused. From CMO to court rooms, a section of officials had helped the power centres which had scant regard for values. This didn't happen in a single case. The officials who refused to toe the line of the rulers were harassed. Chandy was destroying the whole democratic system for his personal gain", VS said. VS said the Chandy government countered all questions on morality and corruption by asking counter questions on development. "What if we are immersed in corruption? what if there is not a trace of morality in our acts? What if we don't give you pure air and clean water? We are giving you development. That was his line of thinking and action. If you challenge it, the CM will christen you as one who is against development", he said. Recalling how fascists across the world drew power to themselves by propagating anti-Muslim and anti-Jewish sentiments, VS said Chandy was creating a community of 'development haters' with fascist ambitions. "All progressive elements in the Kerala society have been labelled development haters. Environmentalists, farmers, workers, tribals, educationists and Communists were all branded so", said VS. He asked voters to not to be carried away by wrong notions of development that had created a crisis in the western world. "Is it logical to follow a development path which the west has abandoned?" asked VS.

- Real life hero VS Achuthanandan becomes reel-life 'super hero'
Finally, CPM veteran V S Achuthanandan became an 'actor', that too in a feature film with a social message and fighting spirit. The CPM veteran acted as the real-life character in the climax scene of the film, 'Campus Diary' directed by Vineesh Palayad, in which actors like Joy Mathew and Suraj Venjaramoodu are also acting.
- At 92, CPI (M)'s VS Achuthanandan is the Chief Minister hopeful his party hates to love
The CPI (M) hates to love him even as it loves to hate him. But there is a certain thing about some men – you just can't keep them down. VS Achuthanandan is a case in point. The 92-year-old (no eye check-up required, you read that correct) is the Chief Ministerial candidate of the Left Democratic Front (LDF). The CPI (M) has attempted time and again to deny elbow room to the sharp-tongued Achuthanandan, its only surviving founding member. It removed him from the politburo in 2009 for innumerable bare-knuckle showdowns with the state party chief. It then attempted to deny him a ticket in the 2011 Assembly election. It would be sufficient underplay to say it remained just an attempt. Some have a rebellious streak, which can be described charitably as 'charting their own path'. VS, as he is widely known, is such a person. He was among those who walked out of the CPI in 1964 to become a founding member of the CPI (M). Notwithstanding the fact that he was Chief Minister he railed against diktats from the high command of the CPI (M) – the very party he had helped establish. Achuthanandan gave no quarter to his politburo comrade and party state secretary Pinarayi Vijayan when his name was associated with the Rs 345 crore SNC Lavalin Scam, involving the awarding of maintenance and repair contracts of three power plants to a Canadian company. His stand-off with Pinarayi had contributed in large degree to his removal from his party's politburo in 2009. The CPI (M) then denied him a ticket in the 2011 election, despite the fact that he was the outgoing Chief Minister. Protests that rocked the sate unit of the party forced the CPI (M) high command to ask the state unit to give a ticket to Achuthanandan. At 92 years of age, Achuthanandan is a prime candidate for the Chief Minister's post. But with his rival Pinarayi Vijayan too in the fray for the top job, VS faces the possibility of having to force his party's hand yet again.

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The CPM said on Friday that it did not pick VS Achuthanandan as Kerala's chief minister in view of his age and compared him with former Cuban president, the legendary Fidel Castro. Announcing the decision to make Pinarayi Vijayan the new chief minister, party general secretary Sitaram Yechury said Achuthanandan, 92, was not given a second stint in view of his age and physical limitations. "Comrade VS is like Fidel Castro in Cuba where he acts in an advisor's role. Like Castro, VS will play that role here," Yechury told the media. When Yechury made the announcement, he was flanked by Achuthanandan and state party secretary Kodiyeri Balakrishnan. Yechury, however, did not take questions on the selection of Vijayan or why Achuthanandan was not given a second stint.

A Lesson in Irony
You gotta wonder how many students at TSU are doing a double-take at their class schedules:
Yeah, Priscilla Slade. The same P. Slade who, with three of her aides, was ousted for (allegedly) spending school money on personal expenses, is teaching accounting classes at the university.
Seems Slade has tenure, and a little bad PR hasn't deterred her from returning to the classroom. She told the media that she's enjoying her return to teaching. We can only imagine the syllabus: "How to Make a $340,000 per Year Salary Work for You." Who wouldn't sign up for that?

Literacy Volunteers in Oak Park help people make connections
On a recent Wednesday evening, Adele Cannell, was speaking English to six adults who don't speak it very well. To encourage them to reply in kind, the veteran facilitator with Literacy Volunteers of West Cook County's Conversation Café uses a white dry-erase board as she tosses out verbal prompts:
"I am so happy I can read the Chinese menu," she says to the small group of ESL (English as a second language) learners.
Surprisingly, the first student to venture a response is a reserved Chinese woman. Usually she doesn't speak out and often depends on her more fluent Chinese husband for coaching, confidence, and communication. This time she doesn't hesitate."Very good, Anna, that's great," says Cannell, using her student's English name in a format where only English is spoken.
Prior to the start of this group dialogue, Cannell had asked Anna's husband to let his wife fly solo … and, with confidence, she does.
"Another way you could say that, Anna, would be, 'The last time I went to a restaurant, I was so surprised because the menu was in Chinese and I could read it.'"
In an Asian accent and with aplomb, Anna echoes, "I am so surprised because the menu is Chinese. I can read!"
In this small room in a library full of books, her peers let out a cheer. Anna blushes, looking pleased.
"I really get a lot out of seeing that kind of improvement in people," says Cannell, who underwent her training as an ESL facilitator in 2010. "Anna was much more animated, and she spoke more than she ever has here. Normally, overall, she has looked more stressed. But this time, speaking English seemed a bit easier for her."
In 1986, Literacy Volunteers of West Cook County (LVWCC) debuted in an effort to meet the literacy needs of people who cannot read or write English well enough to participate fully in society, says Esther Chase, an LVWCC board member. The nonprofit, she says, was formed to provide free one-on-one tutoring services and literacy programming to adults through a network of trained adult volunteers.
Tutoring sessions take place in the community, at a local library, or in the offices at 815 N. Marion St. in Oak Park. Conversation Café is a group that meets weekly to casually practice basic conversation skills that are necessary for participating in everyday life.
Both opportunities, Chase adds, are free.
"At Conversation Café they might talk about shopping, how to fill out government forms to apply for assistance, or simple things such as what's happening at the Olympics or current events. But generally it is just an open dialogue," she says.
Locally, the café gathers on Mondays (at the Forest Park Library) or Wednesdays and Saturdays (at the LVWCC office).
"I've worked with people of many backgrounds from many different countries," Cannell says. There is a physician from Libya who is currently working in a free clinic, so Conversation Café has been very good for him because now when people talk in slang, use idioms, or have a dialect, he has raised his comfort with day-to-day English."
A recent boon for the program has been its central location.
"We know we are helping people when they come back and say, 'You know, when I started coming here, I couldn't fill out a job application, and now I can, and now I have a job'," says Yolanda Walton Williams, another member of LVWCC Board of Directors. "People who don't speak English can come here, and our volunteers will help them learn it."

Nice room if you do not need to sleepPublié le 28 avr. 2016 sur Hotels
The Hotel was nice and we got the room for a very reasonable price. We needed a place to stay overnight after driving to Galveston for a cruise the next morning. I guess if we were there to party on the beach and did not need to sleep - it would have been great. However, this is not a beach front hotel (which we already knew and were fine with) and we wanted to sleep. Sleeping was difficult at best - even with ear plugs - because the air conditioner was very loud (the loudest of any hotel that I have ever stayed in). Accessibility to the hotel was also an issue because it is on the I-45 access road and to get to it once you are on the island you either have to loop around using the access road on the other side of I-45, or use side streets to come in the back way. I guess normally this would be no problem, but the area had quite a bit of rain recently, and the road right beside the hotel coming in the back way was flooded.

Beautiful setting. Kids had a great time playing at the river and checking out the exhibits at the Visitor's Center. We saw deer roaming the park nearly every day. Fairly well stocked general store, but lots of "stuff". If you have the ability, take your bikes because they have a wonderful bike and walking trail. Make sure you fill your fresh water tanks before you set-up camp, they do not have water at the sites. - DDnDoug

This is a beautiful park, it has a lot to offer, a small store, restaurant, canoe rentals and more. The sites are nice. We had 119, a very nice site. The St. Francois River is within walking distance, is crystal clear and so refreshing. My biggest complaints are the host and staff. We got here on a Friday about 5PM. We did not even see the host till late the next morning, than he had an attitude. One of our friends got in about 8:30. Their reserved site had someone else in it when they arrived. They talked to the host, who wasn't happy to be awakened, than not helpful to resolve the matter. The restrooms and showers were closed and cleaned from 8-9 or 10 AM. This should be done earlier than 8-9, when people are getting ready to go on a 10AM float trip. However, we had a good time. - jstrom

I have stayed in the cabins here multiple times, and have been more than satisfied with the accommodations!! The staff is super friendly and helpful! I suppose if you are expecting 5 star hotel accommodations, you may be a little disappointed, as the previous reviewer likely was, but if you are looking for a nice cabin on the River, that is exactly what it was! The cabins include electric, AC, heating, cable, stove, microwave, refrigerator, private bathroom/shower, BBQ grill, screened in porch overlooking the river... Overall, I would say this is one of the best places to stay near Clearwater Lake (which is saying a lot as I have stayed at almost every camping facility in the area). I would highly recommend this campground to anyone!! - Kazeiser

We attempted to stay here. The Cabin rented to us was something out of a horror movie. It was old, unkempt, smelly, and scary. The building was fine but the inside and furnishings, well the Salvation Army would not accept them. It was so unacceptable that we counted it as a loss and left. Disgusting and not even an option. Look up other options in town. - kap7893

What a gem. Beautiful sites. We were on the river and we walked down and sat in the beautiful cool river. GPS is a little off so we ended up turning too soon and got in a bit of a pickle. Staff is very helpful. - Castnay

We stayed 1 night while traveling through the area.
The access to the park from US-60 (a divided 4 lane highway) requires passing through an uncontrolled intersection so turning off or onto the US-60 poses a slight hazard. Then travel is along a narrow rural residential road. And finally, the driveway into the park is steep creating the possibility of scraping or high centering. However, we didn't experience either of these problems.
The park DID NOT respond to any contacts online (electronic messages) even through their own website. Had to call the park directly to make reservations. The owner apologized for not responding to the electronic messages. The basic rate is for 30 AMP service. There is a $3.00/night charge for 50 AMP service.
The interior roads and site parking pads are gravel. The roads were narrow considering they were for 2-way traffic. The pull through sites were long enough for coaches and their toads. The sites were generally level. There is not much privacy between the sites as the sites are close to each other. They have full hook ups - water, electricity (50 AMP), & sewer. The utility connections were towards the middle to rear of the sites. The sewer fitting was above ground creating the potential for an uphill flow. There was an outside table and fire pit.
There are some trees/canopy that could make satellite reception hit and miss depending on site assignment and your dish configuration. Didn't try to get any broadcast channels.
The provided WiFi was adequate but it was dependent on how close your site is to the office. Our NET10 phone reception was acceptable.
No designated fenced pet area but there was sufficient area to walk dogs along the park roads. There was only one dumpster near the office to dispose of waste.
For being in a hazardous/severe weather area, there was no underground storm shelter. No structure was identified as a severe weather shelter. - bsb814

The park is on the banks of the Current River and offers tubing on the river. The owners are friendly and want to ensure you enjoy your stay. The bathrooms and showers were very clean and well maintaained. The sites include both back in and pullthrough with full hookups. We were only going to stop for one night but wound up staying five nights and relaxing with the river flowing behind our site. We would definitely stay here again. - NEOK

This campground was a mixed bag. On the plus side, it sits right on the Black River, which is crystal clear, and has gorgeous scenery. The campground rents tubes, canoes and rafts, and will take you five miles up the river for a delightful float trip back down to the campground. The campground offers free firewood, and has limited supplies in the camp store. It is close to Johnson Shut Ins State Park, which is a wonderful place to spend an afternoon swimming. On the negative side, this is definitely a campground and not an RV resort! There are no full hookup sites, and the dump station was difficult to maneuver around, messy and smelly. Lots of shade trees make the sites awkward for large RV's. Sites were sandy. There are sites for horse campers, and if you don't have a horse, you definitely don't want to be in one of those sites! It seemed to us that most of the people camping here were repeat customers for many years, and we felt a bit out of place as "newbies". The office staff weren't overly friendly, and didn't seem to care whether they had our business or not. We enjoyed the river, but if we returned to that area, I think we would try one of the other campgrounds. - shayerk

We stayed at the East campground in the B section. Overall a nice campground. The shower/bath house on the East side needs to be updated. There are only 2 toilets in the bathroom portion. The shower still uses solar to heat the water, and it is not very efficient. Luke warm showers at best. You can go to the west side of the river to the new bath house, however the showers were not designed very well. The changing portion is not divided from the shower and if your not careful, your clothes can get wet! We stayed here for 6 days and the only time we saw the camp host was when we checked in on day one. The park did get loud and rowdy, and no host anywhere to enforce the quiet times!!! No washing machine/dryer and no camp store. There is a small store adjacent to the campground, that is part of the local canoe rental. The bath/shower house should have been upgraded when the west side was added to the complex. No cell phone reception and no Wi-Fi and no TV station reception. Seems like I was asking people to slow down all week long as well. Don't know why it is so hard for people to follow posted speed limits in campgrounds. Children playing in the campgrounds and people flying down the roads, way faster than the posted speed limit!! Again, if the camp host would have been doing his job. All in all it is an average campsite. Could be a whole lot nicer with rule enforcement and some upgrades. - KentuckyCampin

Nice campground. Can get loud on weekends. Right next to Black river, great swimming and family fun. Playground nice. New addition on west side of black river, but not shady. The East side has plenty of shade. The west side not hard to get in and out of, but pulling in and out of the west side can be tricky with larger units. Hard turn coming off of K highway into entrance and downhill. Overall, nice campground for the money. - KentuckyCampin

Beautiful area! Summer weekends get crowded with a party atmosphere. They have canoe and raft rentals for floating. The "beach" area is a great place to hang out at once the floats trips have shoved off for the day, it's an easy walk as it's part of the campgrounds. Bathrooms seem to be keep as clean as possible for all the people that were there the weekend that we stayed. Watch for lower hanging branches if you have a larger RV or motorhome. Sites appeared to be mostly dirt or gravel. - DDnDoug

A beautiful park! The park sits on the Black river, although RV sites are not on the river. Most RV sites are water and electric only, with one dump station available as you leave the park. Some of the sites are very difficult to get into if you have a big rig; watch those overhead branches! They do have a few pull through sites, but even some of those are better to back in and out of to avoid the many trees. This place gets busy in the summer, so you probably should call ahead. I've had some trouble with the electric boxes over the years; the place could use a few repairs. Free, abundant firewood most of the time. - jaybird777

First of all let me say, this is a GREAT RV park if you are camping with children. If you are not planning on staying here with kids, there is not much for you to do. They have kid-friendly activities planned at all hours of the day: arts/crafts, tye-dye T-shirts, bubbles, storytime, biscuit throws, toy car races, etc. Yogi Bear comes out every morning to raise the flag and every evening for the Hey Rides. Other camping activities include a pool (pretty good sized), tiny water park (sprinklers, splashing buckets, water guns), playground, miniature golf course (6 holes), panning for "gold" (iron pyrite $). It includes a well stocked store, very clean restrooms and laundry room, and a Cartoon Cafe. Complimentary breakfast (M-F) left a little to be desired (boxed donuts, granola bars, and coffee) but the thought was nice. There is just so much for kids to do here! Upon entering the park, check in can be a little confusing as the store and the entrance to the park are not one and the same. If your site is not a full-hookup (concrete pads up by pool) be prepared for gravel!! All sites down by the river are gravel. Roads are not clearly marked. In fact they virtually blend in with the campsites! However, all of the gravel sites are very spacious. We have a 30 ft. motorhome with no slides, but those with big slides would have lots of room side-to-side to stretch out. Sites are nice and shaded down here and if you choose a riverfront site you are LITERALLY right on the river. Very nice little sand swimming beach to the Current River and a boat launch as well. Canoe/tube rental company operates on the premise so that you can float the river. Currently the river is beautiful. Staff was incredibly nice. For the price of $42 (not a full hookup site) you are really paying for all the activities for the kids. Hence it is not worth the price if you don't need/want all those activities. This is one of the best RV parks we have camped in. My toddler had a blast. Was very full for the weekend with lots of people, so peace and quiet was not the order of the day! But by Monday, they had all cleared out and order was restored. There is a golf course next door to the campground (not associated with the campground), so if you are looking for something else to do beside spend the weekend on the river, it was available. We did not use Wi-Fi so I cannot say as to how good it was, although it is available. Bottom line: this was one of our favorite RV parks and we will definitely be coming back. - mrchisho

All grass or gravel sites with lots of shade. The Current River was very close, clean and clear. The grass was being cut while we were here for 3 days, it had been allowed to get too long and when cut, left quite a mess. Lots of bugs at night. We stayed during the week and they delivered a free pancake breakfast to all campers that wanted it: a neat perk. - msrebel
Sep 2009 - $32.00
$33.67 was the off season rate as opposed to $42 plus tax in season. For overnight stays in the winter there is a $25 rate. Lots of trees. Located on the current river 3.5 miles north of Highway 60 on Highway "M". There is a full hookup area at the top of the hill by the Store, pool and playground. Down the hill to the river bank are the campsite areas with 30 amps and water, no sewer. These are gravel sites under large oak trees with several literally on the river bank. We were almost the only ones in the campground. It was very quiet. We stayed in the Full Hookup sites with a concrete pad, 50 amps, cable, water and sewer. Water pressure was over 100 pounds so we were using a regulator. Internet access is free and response was excellent. We didn't use the pool, but it looked crystal clear and well maintained. It may have been the time of year, but there were no mosquitoes with the temperature and humidity in the 80's. They are pet friendly and our Maltese enjoyed the stay. Sites seemed well maintained, mowed and trees were trimmed. The full hookup sites had newer electrical boxes and there was expansion work on one of the concrete pads in progress. Hosts were very friendly and gave us a lot of information on the local area. We'll stay here again. - RVTravelerToo

Nice enough park, sites a little more crowded and with less privacy than other COE parks I've been to. Motorboats on the lake were very noisy late into the night. There is a great walking/bike trail through the woods from the recreation area into the little town of Greenville. No water at sites, only at a few inconvenient places in the campground, but potable water available at the dump station. - KAP99

Lovely well groomed park. They have playground equipment for the children. Good paved roads and nice level sites. Great dump station prior to the entrance. Even though the campground was mostly full, it was quite and clean. We had a great time here and would have stayed longer had we not had reservations elsewhere. We would stay here again. - valerie55

Sterling woman pleads guilty to voluntary manslaughter in daughter's death
After nearly nine years and two mistrials, the case of a woman accused of beating her daughter to death has finally reached a resolution.
Vanesa Patricio Cruz, 32, pleaded no contest to amended charge of voluntary manslaughter in the 2005 death of her 20-month-old daughter Jocelin.
After collapsing at the Santee Trucking parking lot in South Riding, Jocelin was taken by South Riding rescue squad members to Inova Fair Oaks Hospital, where she died. The investigation into her death ran cold until 2011, when Detective Wayne Promisel reopened the case. In 2012, Cruz was taken to the police station for questioning, and she tearfully confessed to hitting her daughter in the head with a remote control, which ultimately led to her death.
Cruz was arrested and charged with second degree murder, felony homicide and felony child abuse and neglect.
The crux of the Commonwealth Attorney's Office case was in both the confession and an autopsy report that indicated bruising on the baby's brain. Additionally, medical reports indicated Jocelin had suffered from prior rib fractures.
But the defense argued that the confession and the techniques used to acquire it were questionable and that the medical evidence did not prove beyond a reasonable doubt the child was abused. Rather, they said, Jocelin could have fallen and hit her head on the pavement, causing the bruising and leading to her death.
The case was brought to trial in May of last year and reached jury deliberations, but after a bailiff honored the jury's request for a ruler, Judge Burke McCahill was forced to grant the defense's motion for a mistrial.
All items used in deliberation must first be vetted by the court.
The second trial, held in December, once again reached jury deliberations but after four hours of deliberating, the jury said they were unable to reach a unanimous verdict.
Though a third trial was scheduled for March, both sets of attorneys in the case agreed to amend the murder charge to voluntary manslaughter. The felony child abuse and felony homicide charges will not be prosecuted by the defense.
The agreement in part comes from the fact that at the time of each mistrial, the juries were hung.
"We feel we've put forth our best case now twice," Chief Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney Nicole Wittmann, noting that they have no new evidence or experts. "I don't have confidence that if we tried this case a third time, we'd come out with different results."
Additionally, Wittmann estimated that at this point, the cost of the case was in the range of $40,000.
"There comes a time when you need to look at justice as a whole," Wittmann said.
Cruz pleaded no contest to the amended charge, meaning she neither admits nor disputes the charge. While it is not a guilty plea, it offers the same immediate results as a guilty plea.
The sentence guidelines range from 2 years and one month to 5 years. The recommended sentence has not been set yet from the parole board. The ultimate sentence is at the discretion of the judge.
Cruz has already spent one year and ten months in jail.
Additionally, Cruz, who is living in the country illegally, may face deportation upon the completion of her sentence.
The court has scheduling sentencing in the case for May 5 at 9 a.m.
@annaB, pleading no contest offers the same results as a guilty plea, according to the story.
@ Chris - She didn't plead guilty, she pled no contest; the difference is explained in the article.
@LoudounTimes - "While the crux of the Commonwealth Attorney's Office case was in both the confession and an autopsy report that indicated bruising on the baby's brain." is not a complete sentence.
How long does it take to get ICE involved in processing a deportation? Can she be deported prior to the end of her sentence to reduce the burden on Loudoun taxpayers?
Additionally, Cruz, who is living in the country illegally, may face deportation upon the completion of her sentence.
May face deportation? How could she not face deportation after having plead guilty to such a heinous crime?

Amazing staff, really looked after us during our stay. The pool is nice and breakfast was decent. Booked an extra night. It's about three dollars for a tuk tuk to the main bars and restaurants.

Nice room, clean, quiet, best breakfast from SW Asia (best hostel we have stayed). Problems: hot water from shower was very instable, and cable tv was not working. The hotel is a bit far from the city center (there is a tuk-tuk from hostel), but they work just until 09:00pm, so we had to take another one every day, but it was ok.

La verdad es que hemos estado encantados con el tiempo que hemos pasado alli. La atencion de todo el personal fue inmejorable. La piscina era algo que no sabiamos si utilizariamos, pero despues de todo un dia recorriendo templos la verdad es que le sacamos partido. La localizacion era un poco lejana tanto al centro como a angkor, y podria estar mas cerca, pero al final en tuc tuc se puede hacer rapidamente.

This hotel is a fair distance from town, but do provide a free tuk-tuk shuttle into the centre, so this was not a major issue. with a very clean swimming pool and the friendliest, cheeriest staff imaginable, our stay in Siem Reap, and it's amazing attractions, was enhanced by staying at the Gloria Angkor Hotel

After visiting a few of the surrounding countries (Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia) this hotel is by far the best in SE Asia. It is extremely clean, well-maintained, and the staff are friendly and helpful. They are very up front with you and tell you what fair prices are in the area so you know the limit when haggling. Free wifi throughout the entire hotel as well and the speed is good. Great pool and lounging area as well.

Had a very good stay in this hotel. You get a lot for your money and the staff is very kind and always helpful. The breakfast is already included and a mixture between western and Asian breakfast. We were after visiting angkor to tired to eat outside, that's why we had dinner there as well. It's fair priced and good. The hotel also has some bicycles to hire (for free). It's a little bit far away from the city centre but it doesn't matter when you are in Siem Reap for the temples.

Damen Shipyards have delivered the ASD tugs 'Karloo' and 'Kalarka' to Half Tide Marine Pty Ltd of Australia. The tugs were built to the highly successful ASD Tug 3111 design, which in common with most Damen vessels, has been the subject of constant research and improvement. Including 'Karloo' and 'Kalarka', Damen has delivered twenty tugs built to that design, which will now be replaced by the new ASD Tug 3212. That change represents an important historic milestone for Damen, it recognises the high level of sophistication reached by the ASD Tug 3111 and the need to introduce a new design that incorporates all of the best features of that vessel in a new powerful tug for the future with even greater potential.

First Five Minutes of 'American Horror Story: Asylum' See First Attack in the Ward
Hyping up the upcoming premiere of "American Horror Story: Asylum", the first five minutes of the show have been shared online. It follows Adam Levine's Leo and Jenna Dewan's Teresa who just got married and visit Briarcliff Manor for their honeymoon while searching for the building's history on the Internet.
The couple who is dubbed "The Lovers" feels aroused once they get inside the abandoned ward. Their private moment, however, is interrupted when they hear a sound in another part of the building. Things go wrong when they go to check the source of the sound.
Viewers should tune in the first episode of "American Horror Story: Asylum" on Wednesday, October 17 at 10/9c on FX to find out what happens to the couple. Previously, it was said that the couple's honeymoon would be ruined when Leo drew the attention of the Big Bad.
Jessica Lange, Zachary Quinto and Lily Rabe are some other regular cast members of the horror series. The show recently tapped "Deadwood" alum Ian McShane to play a character who would "tussle" with Lange's Sister Jude.

One side measures 1/4oz, 1/2oz, 1oz
The other has 1/3oz, 3/4oz, 1.5oz
The contruction is solid: nice brushed stainless with two small neat welds between the 2 cups, reinforced by a grippy black silicon band. I have dropped it several times on tiles and not even dingged it.
What makes this jigger the best choice is that instead of marked lines for each measurement, there is an indentation, like smaller cups inside bigger ones: hard to explain without seeing it but basically, even if your near-vision is not great (because you are a well-aged connoisseur or just because you've had that first cocktail!), you will easily be able to dose your ingredients.
I own several jiggers, most of them coming from cocktail shaker sets and this one is the only one that gets used now. Highly recommended for your well-stocked bar.
And to finish with a favourite:
1.5 oz freshly pressed lime juice
1 oz overproof (151) Lemon Hart demerara rum
1 oz Mount Gay Eclipse rum
1.5 oz simple syrup
Dash of Angustura bitters
Shake well over ice. Strain over more fresh ice in a no-frill glass or a small canning jar. Do you need a garnish? Cheers!
My only complaint is our bar has gone through 3 of these in less than a year because the top & bottom half eventually separate from the black rubber middle section.
If Oxo would weld the two pieces together it would be the perfect jigger.
Pros: it has nice measures on it I mean you do not need other measures then this:
1/4oz, 1/2oz, 1oz All these measures are splitt in 2 halfs and the way that you can read them is nice and very clear, even to the most
1/3oz, 3/4oz, 1.5oz most dumb people of this earth.
Cons: they could use better quality stainless ( which actually becomes full of stains due to alcohol interaction/ acid juices like limes/lemons/orange
the fact that we dishwash them all the time or the fact that can't keep it up with the water; could be many causes .
That plastic will not hold for long; that also can be how you handle the item and so on. In my case on a cruise in a very demanding enviroment
these thing is not holding up too well but it gets to job done.
They could make this product full metal with some better quality and I'll pay double for it or more if can resist more in time.
The jigger itself feels nice and solid; it's heavy-duty enough to be found behind a bar, but stylish enough to look at home in your liquor cabinet. The no-slip rubber grip in the middle is very helpful, as is the tapered design, for maintaining a good hold even after imbibing in several pours. In a year of use, the rubber is still tight to the steel, with no sign of it flexing or coming loose.

My old jigger got lost during a kitchen remodel, and this double one is the perfect replacement.Published 1 day ago by Johnny
Easy to use and still looks great. Love the markings for the different measurements. Recommend.Published 2 days ago by Mark Bolus
The metal broke away from the rubber 39 days after purchase, meaning it's 9 days too late for us to be able to return it or get a replacement. Until it broke, we loved it.Published 5 days ago by Becky G

These are beautiful for Easter and just a little different.
Ingredients Nutrition
- Hardboil your eggs normally.
- When they are cool enough to handle, roll them around on a hard surface to crack them. Try not to break the membrane. Develop a nice overall cracked look.
- Then re-boil in water with food coloring of your choice.
- You could make really cool looking deviled eggs with these.
