Posted on 08/11/2005 11:55:37 AM PDT by Tumbleweed_Connection
An extended African-American family, most of whom reside in Maryland, today announce the settlement of their discrimination claim against a vacation rental condominium resort in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, which barred them from using its swimming pool. Among other things, the settlement of the complaint filed by the Lawyers' Committee and the law firm of Sutherland Asbill & Brennan, provides the plaintiffs with monetary compensation, the amount of which cannot be disclosed under the agreement.
Over 100 African-American family members alleged that they were racially discriminated against when they stayed at Baytree III, part of the Baytree Plantation in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, for the Turner-Gray family reunion in July 2001. The plaintiffs alleged that shortly after they arrived for their family reunion weekend, Stuart Jenkins, property manager of Baytree III and president of the Homeowners' Association, padlocked and chained the entrance to the pool area closing it off to the reunion attendees. According to the complaint, the day after the reunion ended, Jenkins removed the padlock and chain and reopened the pool to guests, personally inviting white guests to use the pool during their stay.
"We selected Baytree as the site for our reunion in part because of its amenities, including the pool facilities," stated Gloria Turner-Simpkins, one of the plaintiffs who organized the family reunion. "But instead of being able to enjoy them, because of these discriminatory actions, we were humiliated and saddened, during what was meant to be an enjoyable family gathering," added Mrs. Turner-Simpkins.
In addition to monetary compensation, the Homeowners' Association agreed to issue a written apology to the family members, to conduct fair housing training for individuals involved in the day-today management of Baytree III, and to inform its members of its policy of non-discrimination.
"This settlement makes clear that such racist behavior and such blatant disregard for the law will not be tolerated," stated Charles Lester, a partner in the Atlanta office of Sutherland Asbill & Brennan LLP and one of the attorneys representing the plaintiffs.
"It is sad but true that in this day and age there are still those who want to stop African Americans from enjoying the same privileges as everyone else," said Barbara Arnwine, Executive Director of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. "While no amount of money can make these family members whole for the racist acts they had to endure and to explain to their small children, this settlement does give them some measure of justice."
That's true. But it's not against the law to be gay. It IS against the law to be a child molester.
That's my point. This isn't a civil rights issue, it's more tied to the enforcement of a contract, and other business related legal issues (which start to get out of my realm; I apologize).
Unless not or his duties involve trashcans and grease-traps
the suit wasn't successful.
So you think a world where a sign that says "No Coloreds" is ok on a restaurant door?
Wow I don't. That kind of behavior is Neanderthal and stupid.
The closest thing to it today is how liberals want to seperate us into groups.
If you are black and were there, would you think it was ok that your children were told that they wern't worthy to swim because of the pigment in their skin?
There are to many false situations where Jesse Jackson and his gang of thugs get their racist machine all cranked up to extort money.
This is a real situation where someone has been wronged. It was probably just one stupid person managing the place, it will cost someone $$.
What about Womens Work out World?
Just goes to show that there is no shortage of idiots.
I'm sure there is. I read through this looonnng thread, and couldn't find one sign of the other side. And, as Judge Judy says, if something doesn't make sense, it isn't true.
Why would a hotel rent to such a large group and allow them access to all facilities except the pool?
Old fashioned racists didn't like the idea of using dishware or linens that Blacks had used. This hotel had no problem with that, so why would the pool be a bigger problem? A healthy dose of chlorine takes care of worse problems than that.
What if this was a typical hotel pool, where there is no lifeguard, and you swim at your own risk? And this family of 100 showed up with 30-40 small kids and didn't appear to be watching them carefully?
Isn't the cost risk of a discrimination lawsuit less than the risk of a reckless death suit?
Could be?
And I know Myrtle Beach has had problems with how to handle the Black bikers every year. Their PR stinks. Anyway, this looks to me like one of the cases where the accused just took the cheapest way out, and we will never know thewhole story.
To degrade others is a terrible thing, but I am not of the opinion that governmental regulation is the best way to address it. The flaws in our culture need to be solved from within, not imposed from outside.
But that's what statutes are: the enforcement of social values by government.
Some are, some are not. There is a difference between laws that protect us from actual harm (murder, rape, child abuse, etc.), and laws that, when it comes down to it, promote one person's rights at the expense of another's. When it comes to the latter, it becomes a balance between whose rights are circumscribed more: one person's right to run a business as they wish vs. another's right to equal use of publicly offered services.
The only way that we got to liberty in the first place was by law and statute.
No, the way we got to liberty was by revolting against unjust laws and statutes, and seizing back our God-given rights from the hands of mortal Kings.
Well, then, we agree.
But the case was a discrimination case, not a breach of contract case. One is citizen vs citizen, the other citizen vs. Govt.
It used to be against the law to commit homosexual acts, as much as it is to be a commit sexual acts with a child. The SCOTUS just recently struck down sodomy laws.
Give the ACLU and NAMBLA another 20 years, and you may not be able to say that.
However, given the condition of the average "public" pool the plaintiff's may have been spared some nasty diseases. I am deathly afraid of public pools these days, people are by and large just too careless about their hygiene. Have you ever observed how many people don't even bother to wash their hands when using a public restroom. Ugh!
Not if the ACLU is successfully RICOd soon, although that should have already happened. I still don't understand how NAMBLA has been allowed to exist for this long.
Sorry about the paragraphs. They were there when I reviewed it but something went wrong when I posted it.
He pissed away tons of money for next year's planned reunion. One hundred eaters and probably half of them are drinkers, as well.
If I owned a Hotel in that area, I'd be contacting each one personally to invite them to come next year.
Oh, yeah! All the more reason to think that this particular family was not given to imagining discrimination that's not really there.
Anyway, sounds like the manager should have been canned (or caned, as I mistyped at first :) , not re-trained.
Ms. Turner reserved twenty-one units for a total cost of $10,511.56.
Quite a sum.
I wonder how the members of the HOA feel about their president now that he has cost them a (hopefully) big lump of cash.
Family reunions are highly sought after by resorts and hotels. Many have a coordinator who is supposed to work closely with the reunion host. When I had mine last month I had to tell the hotel exactly how many adults and kids were coming. They knew how many people were eating breakfast each day and how many were going to be at the banquet. We also paid for everything five days before arriving. I can't imagine that this resort was unaware of how many kids were coming. They took this family's money and didn't let them use the facility that they paid for.
OK, so what's your guess as to why the pool was closed? It makes no sense that a hotel willing to rent to a group of Black people would only put the pool off limits.
They slept there; they ate there. They probably used other facilities. Why not the pool?
And, BTW, I have booked vacations where something went wrong, and I didn't get everything I expected. There was usually an explanation.
It is her private property. She should be allowed to rent to whoever she wishes and deny rent to whoever she wishes for any reason whatsoever.
I don't see clear evidence of racism in the complaint. I do see an admission by the plaintiffs that they had violated the pool usage rules and that prompted the pool to be closed to non-owners. Have black families rented units at the condo before? Was the pool closed during their stay?
And oh, by-the-way, they were the Democrats!
And they didn't change for a hundred years until the
Federal Government forced them to at the point of a Gun.
Why don't Republicans remind everyone of that with
every other sentence they speak?
The Republican has always had the moral high-ground yet
has never failed not to use it.
I hope the Baytree III management staff don't get carpet burns on their knuckles.
"Absolutely. Let the market decide."
My (Orthodox Jewish) landlord has quite a few African-American tenants in his building. When one of them moves out, he tries to bring in Jewish tenants -- not because he dislikes blacks, but because he wants to make the neighborhood more Jewish. Believe me, he would rent it out to a black convert to Judaism, so the issue here isn't race.
Ironically, his loyalty to the Jewish community is hurting him financially, since many of the African-Americans are outstanding & upstanding tenants. They pay the rent regularly & don't make as many demands as do some of the Jewish tenants.
Sometimes beliefs take precedence over market value. (Again, his beliefs have nothing to do with racial prejudice. And he has very good relations with his black tenants.)
"I'd like to hear the other side of this story, if there is another side."
I would also like to hear more. There is something about this story that does not pass the smell test.
The Turners began the litigation process in 2001. The case was finally settled in 2005 . . .
Yet another example how the litigation process grinds on inexorably slowly in this country. I hope the settlement was worth the wait.
"It may be private, but if they're going to rent their property to others, you have to take into account the freedoms of others who may want to rent."
Unless the potential renters or customers are smokers, then discrimination is OK. In addition, your argument above is the foundation for forcing land lords to rent to people that participate in immoral behavior. For example, imagine forcing a Christian land lord to rent to a Homosexual or forcing them to enter a lease with Planned Parenthood.
"This is why the anti-discrimination act came along - to provide reason to the selection process."
Much more reason would have been applied to the process without government intervention. Yes racism is morally wrong, yes it is harmful to the victims and no it should never be tolerated. However, government intervention has done nothing but create more riffs. The progress made up to this point is more of a result of market needs and individual personal growth.
Take a look at "Applied Economics" by Thomas Sowell for a decent discussion on the topic.
(Gabz) The story would have been just fine without that paplum.
Why? Do you think that the hurt caused by that that kind of injustice is mentally dismissed like an inadvertant bump while in a crowd? I am sure those kids were looking forward to that pool. How do you think it felt for those kids to learn why they couldn't use it? How do you think it felt for those parents to have to explain it to them?
I disagree with affirmative action, Jessie Jackson, "reparations", Al Sharpton, Calypso Luie, etc. I think these "leaders" exploit real and imagined racism, in both directions, for personal gain. I agree with Bill Cosby; the African Americans in this country need to wake up and take responsibility for mess that many are in if it is going to be corrected. But it is ignorant to pretent that discrimination doesn't exist and that it doesn't hurt to be treated unjustly.
"You're talking about private property. This was a business."
Do you consider all businesses to be public property?
"What if the CEO decided that he doesnt want Hispanic folks coming into our stores, are you saying that he should be within his right to bar them entrance? What do you think would happen to our company?"
Yes it should be within his right to bar anyone for any reason. Your second question indicates that you are aware of the more proper solution. The market would clearly not tolerate such stupidity, which would mean as a society we would eradicate these actions without government interference.
It is ignorant to acknowledge that discrimination exists but to pretend that it doesn't hurt to be treated unjustly because of it.
"Having observed many of these nuts over the last few years, both on FR and in local letters to the editor, I have to say that a special category of personality disorder ought to be reserved for these people. But that I mean not constitutionalists, or sensible constructionists, by any means, but for those who abandon any attempt at reasonableness or ordinary fairness for their obsessive and narrow-angled interpretations of the Constitution. Confronted with the complexities of today's world, I have no doubt that the founding fathers would have placed great emphasis on the desirability of non-discrimination by businesses and government, among other protections including rights of the unborn."
Whose sensibilities should set the standard? Yours? Hillary's? Jesse Jackson's? Osama's? Sadam's?
The Constitution is not a living document that is meant to be "interpreted" depending on the sensibilities of the times. When you take that stance, you end up using a "right to privacy" as the justification to a "right to abortion." At the same time you end up using "interstate commerce" potential to monitor what people ingest.
I certainly agree with you on that point...the family should be reimbursed their money. Beyond that...I see that this is an extended family of 100...they must spend some serious money at these reunions. The best revenge they could take would be to take a picture of all 100 all them together and mail it to the owner of this facility along with a note explaining what happened and why they will never spend their money there again and how each of the 100 of them will make sure that every one of their family and friends knows what happened there.
"A countersuit for the cost of the lawyers and legal fees would seemed to have been in order in they had a leg to stand on."
Not with the Jury Pools of today.
Number one, your question is leading and disingenuous, I don't know you, but I would hope it's beneath you.
Number two, you need to read the follow-ups before charging in with a question like that. I had already explained that businesses dealing with the public are different from private property under current law, in that discrimination is not allowed on the basis of race. I cannot open a diner that is open to the public and serve only white people. It's my diner, but I deal with the public in commerce.
I'm over this thread. The manager was an a$$ under any definition if he had no good reason for closing the pool. There are laws on the books that guarantee people equal treatment in commerce, as long as they behave themselves. I'm no constitutional scholar, but I can see where there would be arguments for and against those laws.
I love how it shakes out when these issues come up - if you disagree with the law, you're a racist. If you agree that the law was violated, you're a communist.
I'm neither.
Great post. It is precisely the reason that I am addicted to FR. Thanks for your input.
I don't think his level of intelligence is relevant here.
If the facts are true, he is a racist, and that is more important.
It is events like this that make my blood boil --- and, yes, I am white.
The irony is, this racist pig probably votes Democratic as well as the attendees.
"Well, then these same private property businesses shouldn't expect public benefit of police, fire, street, or sewer."
I could buy into that. So long as they became exempt from paying taxes. Kinda circular logic, huh.
This is not a criminal matter (as long as there is no violence). Police would tell them to go to court.
A little more info. on this subject
"I prefer enforcing the law."
Do you feel the same way about all laws? Abortion laws? Or do you feel some laws are just, while others are unjust?
The article does not say. But I cannot imagine that a family, while having a reunion, would use this for blackmail. If the pool were being repaired, there would be physical evidence of nondiscrimination --- clearly not the case here. Apparently, there were also witnesses of the manager inviting white guests to use the pool.
This should not be happening in America.
Well, we've talked about this. We came to pass the nondiscrimination laws. The actions of the association were illegal.
You also confuse association with commercial activity. You can associate with whomever you want in business life. But when you open a store for business --- that is not "association" but commerce.
I don't want my country to discriminate against anybody in business and public life. Do you?
Seems the units in question are condos and the owners of those condos lease them out. Guess those owners should be sued for breach of contract as Baytree is not a leasing agent and had no prior knowledge of the reunion.
Could it be because there were 100 of them, and not because they were black?

Celebrate 60th Wedding Anniversary
A 60th wedding anniversary party was held Friday, Aug. 6, 2010 at The Crossing at Mervine Kahn in honor of Alma and Howard DeRouen, Jr. of Rayne.
Mr. and Mrs. DeRouen are the proud parents of four children, Eurella DeRouen Cahanin (spouse Keith Cahanin), Bertha DeRouen Besse (spouse Fred Besse), Howard J. DeRouen III (spouse Tina Dansdill DeRouen), and Dee James DeRouen (spouse Tina Bordelon DeRouen), along with 15 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.
The honorees were greeted during the 7 p.m. special event by approximately 200 guests, who were entertained with cocktails, dinner, entertainment, and pictures of the couple from all six decades.
Entertainment for the night was provided by Nickel Beer, as well as a "friend and family" six-decade dance for the honorees. Songs that for the performance ranged from Elvis' "Love me Tender" to MC Hammer's "Can't Touch This" performed by Howard DeRouen, III.
Guests were also treated to a traditional wedding cake (pineapple cream, and lemon Bavarian), as well as a chocolate decadent groom's cake.
For the special occasion, Mrs. DeRouen wore a two-piece, champagne-tone skirt suit, while her groom was handsome in a traditional black tuxedo.
Howard and Alma, who live in Rayne surrounded by family and friends, was honored as their 60th anniversary was blessed earlier in the year on "Super Bowl Sunday" in Abbeville.

Kingston Genesis 4GB DDR3 2133MHz Review
SiSoft Sandra
Published: 14th March 2011 | Source: Kingston | Price: £80.39 |
SiSoft Sandra
The SiSoft memory bandwidth test really shows how much improvement exists in the P67 chipset and the Genesis RAM. 2GB/s more than the higher clocked G.Skill and 4GB/s better than the already excellent Kingston T1 at identical speeds.
Kingston have an unerring ability to keep pulling it out the bag.
The combined Cache and Memory bandwidth test was such a surprising result we almost couldn't believe it. It's one thing to see an improvement in various tests, but once you see nearly a 30% increase in bandwidth you really have to take a step backwards.

the one thing (other than the balls out performance) that struck me about them was the look, the etched hyper x on the gun metal grey is such a nich look that they just ooze so much understated class its untrue. i can only imagine how hard it was to get some nice pics of them, they go from a matt grey to shining like a diamond within a couple of degree.
i havent seen ram look as good as this since corsair first released the dominator range.Quote
if it was on a better set up im pretty sure they would go over 2200 on loose timings.Quote
yea, with a 26k in a p8 67 pro, 103.something x 51 but 104 and it gets flakey.
if it was on a better set up im pretty sure they would go over 2200 on loose timings.
Just not worth the hassle imho.Quote
How can the tweaking be worth it on one platform but not the other?
We dont bother touching the BCLK as most advise not too tbh. so little in it just not worth bothering with. Most chips get iffy at or around 104/105.
Just not worth the hassle imho.
But isn't that the beauty of overclocking that you keep talking about with regards to the 1566 platform?
How can the tweaking be worth it on one platform but not the other?
1155 = 110 if you are luck from a 100 stock. BCLK is pretty pointless on 1155 and was designed to be that way too.Quote
the only thing i could do after 2200 on 1155 was jump to 2400 which is a big step but on the other 2 platforms i could go up in much smaller steps making sure i could get the max out of them.
i know which platform i would of rather used to see how high the ram would go.Quote

In less than three months on the main roster, Brad Maddox has already made an impact.
As a referee.
After a low blow and a fast count, Maddox cost Ryback his first opportunity to become the WWE Champion. This is the same Brad Maddox who cost CM Punk a match a number of weeks ago on Raw. In that match, Punk's leg was clearly on the rope, but Maddox counted to three and awarded the loss to Punk.
Now the question remains: Where does WWE go next with Brad Maddox? Will he continue to be involved with CM Punk? Will he be able to keep his job?
Let's take a look at a number of possible scenarios for Brad Maddox's future in WWE.

Call for Papers - Private Lives, Intimate Readings conference
11-12 June 2013, Estonian Literary Museum

It can be argued that critical engagement with the private and the intimate has always been a key characteristic of life writing studies. Whether highlighting different contexts and intentions of different modes and practices of life writing, where what is deeply personal is also intensely political or focusing on the 'structuring of the private', life writing studies have made a noteworthy contribution to contemporary reconceptualizations of the private and the public spheres. Based on recent development of theoretical perceptions of the field of life writing, informed by, for example, research into one's own family history, archival and oral history work as well as investigation of web-based life writing environments that have created new sites of interrogation of the private and the public, of the intimate and the official and formal, the conference aims at facilitating a discussion of the methodologies of the intimate and the ethics of the private. Questions to be considered include, but are not limited to, the following range of issues:
- The founding assumptions that fuel inquiry of an intensely private and intimate nature, and the transformation of the initial agenda in the course of the inquiry;
- The relational dynamics of the process, the question of ties built (and severed) as well as the contexts and media via which they are facilitated, the interrelationship of private/individual memory and cultural history;
- Ways of dealing with and interrelating different artefacts of memory, the process of 'sorting out' (family) memory evidence, the weight of material evidence, the "concrete reality of a document" (N. K. Miller, C. Kraus);
- The dynamics of the private and the public in archival and oral history work and the process of compilation of and publicizing archival resources;
- The dynamics of private and public documents, the process of personalization of the public and the official and other acts of translation (in figurative and literal sense) and interpretation (concerning, e.g., a range of languages, cultural contexts, time periods, political regimes, and ideologies);
- Ways of accounting for the absences of concrete realities, the frequent gap and discord between place as a geographical entity today and its memorial implications with regard to lost and destroyed realities (M.Hirsch and L.Spitzer);
- The "intergenerational acts of transfer" (M. Hirsch) such inquiry often involves on different levels, the second-generation's responsibilities to its received memories (E. Hoffmann), questions of postmemory (M. Hirsch) and of post-postmemory;
- The memorial aesthetic and the aesthetic and ethics of representation of intimate memory, capacities of different representational modes and artistic media for accounting for the intimate.

No. It's an MMORPG.
Maybe you're thinking of Dragon Quest X. That had a very limited single-player mode.
For those players who don't speak Australian, we have provided an English translation of the previous scene. Do you want to replay the scene?
HakuMan111386 posted...
Do you need to play online to enjoy this or no?
This game requires online because it is part of a genre that is very community-based, from the economy to mob spawns.
There is a main storyline, very much like playing a single player Final Fantasy. However, you do need to be online to play this game. At certain points in the story questing, you need to join groups to complete dungeons, but aside from that, it can very much be done alone.
I repeat though, you must be onlne to play. I do suggest at least using the first free month to play through the main story, as it is pretty decent.

don't listen to this guy^
Yes there is a single player story campaign, however throughout the campaign it will force you into a few mandatory groups (at least 5 dungeons, and 3 boss battles that I can think of off the top of my head)
The rest of the story is single player, and it even has small single player instances where you couldnt even bring a friend if you wanted to.

Historical Traveler Reviews State Plaza Hotel Washington DC
Great Value in the District
My daughter and I spent 5 nights there 4/22-4/26. We were very pleased altho the maid service was not perfect(slow to replace toiletries w/o specific request, removed unopen sode from fridge).We arrived at 7 AM after a red-eye flight. The hotel gave us a room immediately and did not charge for the extra time. The room was spacious with separate kitchenette, bath and dressing room. Well lighted, good tv, good AC, friendly staff quick to respond to any request. Safe, great location near GWU, 5 blocks from Metro, walking distance to Lincoln Memorial, inexepnsive taxi ride to Reagan Internat'l. Didn't use restaurant but it looked nice. Hint: learn to use the metro right away -- it's great. Eat at Ebbett's Grill. Don't miss monuments at night.
Professional service; perfect location; nice price
Located 4 blocks from the white house and four blocks from vietnam memorial, so good location for touring without need for metro.
The rooms have older furniture and tile. But very clean. The staff was very professional and well dressed.
Price was good $100-140 depending on the night. Parking right under the hotel, so you have access to your car whenever you want.
My room had full refrig, gas stove, and sink. Could have used a microwave.
Not a pleasant experience
Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Front desk workers were not very friendly and one in-particular was quite rude. Most of the employees do not speak very much english. Parking is a nightmare unless you get there right at check-in time. The room was average for the price. It was clean, but the kitchen/appliances looked like they were from 1950. The "courtesy bar" which was filled with overpriced candy and trailmix was opened and items were missing. We called the front desk and after being transferred to 3 non-english speaking employees we were told there would be no charges. We, again, asked if there were any additional charges at check-out and were told there was nothing additional. Of course, charges appeared on our credit card. The weekend we were there was warm and humid and we could not get them to turn on the air-conditioning because it was too early in the year. This made being in the room/sleeping very uncomfortable. Not a pleasant experience, at all.
We were very pleased with the State Plaza
We required two bedrooms, and we booked a junior suite with a pullout couch. This was much more economical than renting two rooms anywhere else. The suite was very spacious and comfortable for two people, and included a large kitchen. The kitchen made it easy to eat in - another economy. To the right of the hotel door on the E Street side is a drugstore and a liquor store, and to the left on the F Street side is a (rather modest) grocery store. There are no restaurants close by, except the one in the hotel. We ate one dinner there, which was very nice, but upscale - not burgers and fries. The location is convenient to the sights, especially the Lincoln Memorial, which is impressive at night. If someone else is paying, you can certainly find more luxurious places. But we felt the State Plaza was a find for an economical and pleasant stay.
Keep it simple for the incompetent staff
If you want a great location, don't want to pay much, are a party of one or two, and have NO SPECIAL REQUESTS for the staff, this is a pretty good place. It has a 1950s apartment building feel. No, the views aren't any good, but you can walk out the front door and be down at the Lincoln Memorial in 10 minutes. Big kitchens, and there is a decent Safeway grocery 10 minutes on foot at the Watergate complex. I came with a large group of schoolkids. Disaster! Expedia reservations found only after a protracted battle with the receptionist (whose English was poor). Couldn't get adjacent rooms. In fact, our rooms were in different floors and in different buildings. We arrived in the afternoon but weren't settled in our rooms until after dinner. Phones didn't work. TV volume didn't work. Wrong keys given. Bellhop couldn't find our rooms. lots more but I'll spare you. to sum up: great location. good price. bad service
We stay there regularly!!!
This hotel is perfectly located in DC center. YOu can park on the street or in the garage they have. It is walking distance to all the museums. We have stayed there maybe twenty times in the past 8 years and only had one minor problem of note. For about 100.00 you are moving back in time to about 1955 with the decor and the whole deal. Every room has a stove, frig and a coffee pot and they are located in a little kitchenette off from the main sleeping area. There is a zip mart right next door to get goodies. The rooms have a little dressing room off of the bathrooms that makes it great for a little privacy. The plumbing is old and it will run hot and cold sometimes but the bang for the buck is beyond anyones complaint. I have stayed 5 star and 1 star and this ranks 5 for value and 3 for everything else.
State Plaza: March 2003
The hotel staff could speak better english, but none of them were native to our country. Front desk personel should be more informed, ask more questions about their customers upon check-in. The aft building, were I stayed, had no cover to protect from the weather. You had to pass thru a long hall, then thru a garage. The view is something to be desired, since I saw the rear of other buildings. The front & rear entrances were modest. The rooms are comfortable & kitchenette roomy.
The restaurant meal was almost adequate, but food delicious. The location is great, close to many attractions. Cost was comperable to lodging in the Washington area. I give it a 6.5 on scale of 10.
Great locations, great price
Apart from having to tell the taxi driver where it was - I had never been before I used my map! It was a great stay, brillaint location within walking distance of white house etc... price was very reasonale, rooms clean, beds comfy, staff pleasant, kitchen with all amenities. No complaints!
If you are looking for something clean and close to centre its a good choice!
State Plaza - Consider Carefully
We (2 adults and children aged 15 & 12) stayed in two adjacent rooms in August 2003.
We didn't experience any of the problems described by Frederick, MD but then we asked very little of the staff during our stay.
There were some indications that the hotel is not all it ought to be.
Our rooms were adjacent, as requested, but there was no door between the two so we could check up on our kids only by retaining a key and going via the corridor. Both rooms were, however, clean and spacious with full kitchen facilities including a fridge/freezer larger than ours at home!
The taxi booked by the hotel for our departure was expensive (until we negotiated the driver down), untidy and appeared to be a private car.
There were no signs or anything to suggest it was an official taxi.
The best thing about this hotel is the price and location. It's within walking distance of the White House, Lincoln memorial, Watergate, JFK centre, Arlington cemetery and loads of other places. This meant it met our needs but Frederick's tales suggest we may have been lucky.
First of all, I arrived with my employer, only to find that then main entrance is NOT handicap-accesible, and as I'm in a wheelchair, that is annoying. In order to get to the rooms, I had to go outside, down a stinky alley, past some dumpsters, and through a too-steep-for-wheelchairs parking garage. I felt like a second-class citizen. Then, the girl at the front desk was unbelieveably rude, even after we found out that the reservations had been put in for the wrong date. My boss pulled out her laptop with the confirmation from Expedia.com, with the date listed correctly, and after showing the girl, she looked my boss in the eye, and still called her a liar. They finally fixed it after my employer had to get two or three different managers. The elevators smelled very strongly of urine. We missed the first business meeting because of the hotel, and lost out on a deal. It took almost 6 hours to get towels. The Internet connection in the room was not working, so we called for a technician, whose English was poor at best. He just kept saying that the high-speed service wouldn't work with AOL. So we tried to get him to fix the dial-up access, which he flatly refused to do. In the end *I* had to fix the high-speed connection to work with the AOL. Last time I checked, that's NOT my job. After going around and around with numerous people, a manager agreed to comp the stay, and offered us free lunch the next day in the restarant. Trying to ignore the stained carpets and ratty bedspreads, the evening was passed with our beautiful view of the dark, stinky alley and dumpsters. Before we checked out the next day, we requested our free meal. They flatly refused, and called us liars once again. Its not that I was terribly desiring more of their bland, freezer-burned salmon, but at least wanted some feeling of hospitality. In the end, I had to call my husband to leave work, pick us up, and drive my boss to the airport. I then went home and cried.

IN A WIRED WORLD of buying and selling online, eBay, social (and antisocial) media, Jacquin's assistant national sales manager is a throwback to Willy Loman, the dogged character imagined in "Death of a Salesman."
Loman was a "man way out there in the blue, riding on a smile and a shoeshine," Arthur Miller wrote. Jason Fogg rides a Jacquin's-supplied Black Grand Cherokee packed with posters and giveaways, but his method is as old school as his attire. Keeping with Jacquin's philosophy, he wears a dress shirt and tie, neatly knotted at the neck.
Since I couldn't sell matches to a pyromaniac, I admire sales people like Fogg, 31, who insists that his job is to sell customers something they need (even if they don't know they need it). The current thing Fogg wants them to need is Jacquin's line of flavored vodkas (blueberry kicks ass in Philly).

Inside Caitlin's Head
In the 1830s, George Catlin (1796–1872) packed his paintbrushes and trekked through remote Indian country in the Great Plains. Committed to documenting traditional Native culture, he visited more than 140 tribes and painted more than 325 portraits and 200 scenes of American Indian life. Catlin's prolific works, both his art and his writings, illustrate Indian cultures on the precipice of radical change—change that would come with U.S. expansion into tribal territories.

Bar owners scramble to keep up with fake ID technology
The arms race between bar owners and college students with increasingly sophisticated fake IDs is heating up.
Students today can spend $100 to $150 on fake identification through a number of websites that claim superior quality down to the holograms and bar codes. There's an underground review that rates the quality of fake IDs from different sites. Students can even watch YouTube videos on how to make IDs showing they're 21, the legal drinking age. »Read Full Article(30)

Aggressive cigarette pack warnings
Government cigarette pack warnings from around the world.
Government cigarette pack warnings from around the world.
Bill K: Clinton repeated the old Democrat mantra of "Tax the Rich", while in fact The Party has taken a very active role in taxing working people and using governmental powers to determine who is allowed to GET rich. Consider Mylan, the maker of the Epi Pen, whose CEO makes $20 million on the backs of taxpayers (since many tax funded institutions are essentially mandated to buy the product, and you can't get it generic because the FDA squashed the generic competition, thanks in no small part to the Clintons.) Corporations that have steered government contracts are essentially net tax COLLECTORS, and their revenues come out of the hides of working people. The Democrats talk a good game when it comes to income disparity even as their policies are at its very root.

Recalled Baja Motorsports Go-Cart
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced today that Baja Inc., and its corporate affiliate, One World Technologies Inc., of Anderson, S.C., agreed to pay a $4.3 million civil penalty.
The settlement resolves CPSC staff's charges that the firm knowingly failed to report to CPSC immediately, as required by federal law, defects and an unreasonable risk of serious injury involving 11 models of minibikes and go-carts.
CPSC staff charged that the gas cap can leak or detach from the fuel tank on the recalled minibikes and go-carts, posing fire and burn hazards. In addition, staff charged that the throttle can stick, due to an improperly positioned fuel line and throttle cable, posing a sudden acceleration hazard.
Baja sold the vehicles nationwide from November 2004 through June 2010 for $200 to $2,000. In July 2010, Baja and CPSC announced the recall of 308,000 minibikes and go-carts.
Baja did not file its Full Report with CPSC until June 2010. CPSC staff charged that by that time, Baja had received four reports of fires from leaking gas caps and burn injuries to consumers, including a serious burn injury to a child. Baja had also received two dozen consumer reports of stuck throttles. Baja had implemented design changes to remedy the throttle hazard, but the firm had not notified consumers or CPSC of these changes.
Federal law requires manufacturers, distributors, and retailers to report to CPSC immediately (within 24 hours) after obtaining information reasonably supporting the conclusion that a product contains a defect which could create a substantial product hazard, creates an unreasonable risk of serious injury or death, or fails to comply with any consumer product safety rule or any other rule, regulation, standard, or ban enforced by CPSC.
In addition to agreeing to pay the $4.3 million civil penalty, Baja and One World have agreed to maintain a program designed to ensure compliance with the safety statutes and regulations enforced by the Commission and that includes:
In agreeing to the settlement, Baja and One World did not admit to CPSC staff's charges that its minibikes and go-carts contained a defect which could create a substantial product hazard or created an unreasonable risk of serious injury or death, or that the company failed to notify the Commission in a timely manner, in accordance with the reporting requirements of the Consumer Product Safety Act.
The CPSC investigation that led to the settlement of this matter was initiated by the Office of Compliance and Field Operations, and the Office of the General Counsel has been handling the enforcement action.
The penalty agreement has been accepted provisionally by the Commission in a 4 to 1 vote.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury or death associated with the use of
thousands of types of consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product incidents cost the
nation more than $1 trillion annually. CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical or
mechanical hazard. CPSC's work to help ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters and household
chemicals -– contributed to a decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 40 years.
Federal law bars any person from selling products subject to a publicly-announced voluntary recall by a manufacturer or a mandatory recall ordered by the
To report a dangerous product or a product-related injury go online to www.SaferProducts.gov or call CPSC's Hotline at 800-638-2772 or teletypewriter at

Just testing !!! and I thought it was only yesterday...................................
Hi Ian I wondered why you said I was there a bit earlier than you and I wonder if you thought the date on the certificate was 1954 as it could be taken for that. In fact it was 1959. I can't remember the dates I was there but it was definitely 1958 and 1959. So we were there at the same time! But I can't remember you, but then it was over a quarter of a century ago and I expect you don't remember me either.
peterinfrance replied to johnm's topic in SHEFFIELD PEOPLE REUNITEDThere are quite a few people with a considerable knowledge of the Boys brigade in Sheffield and it is to those people Iam appealing to for help. I never quite made the Boys Brigade but I remember having some good time in the Life Boys. For those who don't know the Life Boys were the first step before being old enough to join the Boys Brigade. Similar to the Cubs and Scouts. I remember marching round the local streets on Sundays with the Boys Brigade band leading and every year, I think it was on Whit Sunday, we marched to Meersbrooke Park if memory serves me right, where we met up with other Boys Brigade and Life Boys from other parts of Sheffield. Here is where I need some help as I can't remember. The boys Brigade / Life Boys I was in met at the Methodist Church in Anns Road, which I believe is now the Sheffield Chinese Chistian Church. Does any one know the name company etc.? They were happy days !!!!
Hi Ian It's on the diving certificate! - Peter Bownes I took the tram too it started at the Town Hall all the way to the terminus. Those were the days!
Hi Ian, Yes I went to Rowlinson too in the late 50's. I moved there from Greystones school. I can't remember how long I was there becase we moved house and I then went to Dinnington Tech. You mentioned Mr Brennan and that rang a bell with me and I started rummaging through "the archives". Sure enough J.P. Brennan was the teacher who encouraged me at diving (off a diving board not underwater) and I won the under 15 district swallow diving championship award, under his guidance. These championships were held at the King Edward V11 swimming pool Sheffield. He was the Hon. Sec. of the City of Sheffield schools swimming association. I have attached a copy of my certificate, albeit a bit tatty, and you can see that he is one of the signatories. My prize was free entry for a year to any of the Sheffield municipal swimming pools and I made good use of it. If I remember correctly my class was 2/14. ...................................Memories!!
peterinfrance replied to Hjdary's topic in GENERAL CHATMy first car was a 1959 Ford Prefect similar to the one here. It was a 100e side valve engine with 3 forward gears and the windscreen wipers were not electric but somehow worked off a pressure system to do with the engine. This arrangement worked fine if you were travelling on level ground but if you went up a hill the engine took most of the pressure leaving the wipers to fend for themselves, slowing to an almost stop. Of course the good news was that on reaching the summit of the hill and starting to descend the wipers took on a life of their own and went like the clappers ! It was for all that a good car which I sold in the late 60,s for £65. I wish I had kept it as now they are worth several thousand pounds. Hindsight is wonderful. What was you first car and memories?
peterinfrance posted a topic in GENERAL CHATWay back in 1982/1983 we were rehearsing for a sales conference. The theme was Breakfast TV which had recently been launched. The link man was the presenter of Breakfast TV Frank Bough (before he was caught being naughty) The location of this conference though was up the Eifel Tower in Paris! At a break in rehearsals I took the opportunity to take the lift to the very top of the tower (our conference being on the first floor) I was just taking a picture when I felt a tap on the shoulder and a voice saying" what are you doing here?" It was my friend and sometime golfing partner Jim Thomas and his wife. So that is my incredible chance meeting - at the top of the Eifel Tower. I am sure there are many more - what is your story?
peterinfrance replied to busy lizzy's topic in GENERAL CHATFor me it has to be Elton John at Wembley Arena. I think it was 1985 or there about. It was a fantastic night when Elton was at his absolute best. Guesting was George Michael (not billed) and to cap it all Lady Diana and friends including Prince Andrew!! came and sat not 20 yards from us. A memorable night indeed.
peterinfrance replied to dunsbyowl1867's topic in SHEFFIELD PUBS & WMC'sHi Dave Stuart Chalky Steve HB Just to clarify - there was a Target Inn at 75 St Johns Road I don't know when it closed but my GGGGrandmother Maria Carrier was the Publican in 1901 ! With regards to The Link. Colin Hardy is or was my Uncle although we have not been in touch for more years than I care to remember. Incidentally it does not appear to be listed in the Pubs A-Z.
Cure for wife beating ! A woman goes to the Doctor in Sheffield, worried about her husband's temper and threatening manner. The Doc asks: "What's the problem, Janet? "Well Doctor Rogers, I don't know what to do. Every time my husband comes home drunk, he threatens to slap me around'." The Doctor says: "Yes, well... I have a real good cure for that. When your husband arrives home intoxicated, just take a little glass of water and start swishing it in your mouth. Just swish and swish but don't swallow it until he goes to bed and is sound asleep." Two weeks later she comes back to the doctor looking fresh and reborn. She says: "Doctor that was brilliant! Every time he came home drunk, I swished with water. I swished an' swished, and he didn't touch me even once! Tell me Doc...what's the secret? How's does the water do that?" The Doctor says: "Janet it's no big secret. The water does bugger all - it's keeping your mouth shut that does the trick."
Happy Easter Everybody
peterinfrance replied to RichardB's topic in SHEFFIELD GENEALOGYBubble Gum-Bubble Gum If I am not mistaken it was in Heeley Parish Church that there was the gravestone of a young girl and the inscription was:- Bubble Gum Bubble Gum Don't eat Bubble Gum It was Bubble Gum That sent me to my grave! I think she had chocked on a bubble Gum bubble I only have a fleeting memory of this and I wonder if someone else can verify it. It is certainly an interesting gravestone
peterinfrance posted a topic in SHEFFIELD PUBS & WMC'sIn a reply to another topic (see Holmsfield to Sheffield Bus Service) I recanted an old pub song from the 1950's and probably before even then. It got me thinking that we should get some of these old songs written down before they are all forgotten, as singsongs as they were, with piano accompaniement are largely a thing of the past. So does anyone have any songs to contribute? To kick this off, the song I recall is as follows and I would be grateful if some one could fill in the missing words Oh give me a nail and a hammer and a picture to hang on the wall give me a pair of step ladders in case that I should fall Give me a ........................ and a barrel of old scotch ale I'll bet you I'll hang up that picture if someone will drive in the na a a ail if someone will drive in the nail Over to you.................... peterinfrance
peterinfrance replied to holmesfield-boy's topic in SHEFFIELD TRANSPORTHolmesfield brings back some very happy memories for me when I was a boy in the 1950's. We lived in Sheffield (Heeley Bank Road) and my mum and grandad took the bus to Holmesfield on a Saturday taking me with them. They went mostly to the Rutland Arms where there was always a good singsong with piano accompaniement. I played out the back with the local kids and we had lemonade and crisps (brandy snaps if we were lucky). We also went to The Horns Inn. After closing time at the Rutland Arms we caught the bus back to Sheffield and there was inevitably a singsong on the bus. I was usually stood at the front upstairs "leading" the singing. I can't remember all the songs we sang but a short one sticks in my mind. I do not know all the words so if someone can fill them in I would be grateful. It goes like this :- Oh give me a nail and a hammer and a picture to hang on the wall give me a pair of step ladders in case that I should fall Give me a ........................ and a barrel of old scotch ale I'll bet you I'll hang up that picture if someone will drive in the na a a ail if someone will drive in the nail My Grandad eventually had a caravan down in Cordwell Valley and I would bring the cows in for milking. We also went blackberry picking there. Those were the days.

No only human enjoy the scents of flower, animal does as well. Here we rounded up a list of photos that show animals enjoying the bloom. Bunnies, kittens, foxes, bears and even tigers, no matter they are big or small, it seems they all enjoy the alluring smell as same as bees do. Before you really start to think, do they really enjoy the smell or they just want to eat the flower. Let's just leave the question and enjoy those lovely photos.

The Most Adorable Daycare in the World
If there is the most adorable daycare in the world, the "panda daycare' in the Chengdu Research Base (China) might be the one. This panda "daycare" is actually a specialized breeding center and nursery that seeks to breed new pandas to revitalize the dwindling wild population, which may be as small as 1,864. It is very difficult to get panda to breed. Females panda are able to breed for only 2-3 days a year, and they only give birth to one cub every two years. Hence, each panda cub is very precious. Let's hope the panda daycare can help to improve this breed's situation.
25 Amazing Pink-color Animals
Pink, the color which the sweetness and softness might not be a color at all. In some scientists' views, pink is not a real wavelength of light, it is just a product of our wishful brains blending red and violet wavelengths together. However, pink does exist in most of girls eyes and pink color animals are called "pretties" animal by some people. Here, we are not going to argue whether pink existed or not. We just want to show you some beautiful pictures of pink-color (you might call these shades of magenta, fuchsia, coral or rose) animals. They have really amazing and adorable looking! Yes, even grasshopper is cute in pink.
30 Amazing Photos of Albino Animals
Albino animals, as well as rare all-white species and leucistic creatures, are the same as any other animals, but with a coloration that makes them one in a million. The white color might look cool to us, but for those animals are most likely trouble. Many animals with albinism lack their protective camouflage and are unable to conceal themselves from their predators or prey; the survival rate of animals with albinism in the wild is usually quite low. Here we rounded up 30 amazing photos of albino animals, they are definitely outstanding compared with their fellows.

Thiago Alves looked refreshed against UFC newcomer Papy Abedi, taking a first-round rear-naked choke win for only his second victory in his last five fights.
The former welterweight title challenger showed amazing ground-and-pound technique, which set up the submission, the first in his MMA career (unless you count his submission victory via punches over Jason Chambers in November 2004) and is looking to move up the welterweight ladder once again.
A lot of talk has gone on for this division, especially regarding matchups for the top contenders, and Alves showed that he deserves to be in that talk with his performance at UFC 138.
Here are five fighters that Alves could take on next.
