We really enjoyed our room and it had a great location for walking to town and sight seeing. However, one of the clerks was clueless and left two of the clients sitting in the lobby not checked in when she got off work. Additionally, she had little knowledge of the town and was worthless. The air conditioning and heating didn't operate correctly as well. We liked the room, the location of the hotel and they had a very good breakfast with strong coffee
The staff were very accommodating, but by request only. Screaming children at 6am. I get Inflated prices during holiday season, but if you drop $750/NT on any establishment you should expect more
The location was excellent. Unfortunately the room did not at all reach my expectations. I booked the Deluxe room because it looked amazing and had certain amenities that I thought would be worth the extra money - unfortunately that was not the case. The room was a sweltering 80+ degrees and the AC was broken and couldn't be fixed according to the front desk. Ok.. So I tried opening the windows but the screens left a large gap between being fully closed and reaching the window pane. As the room was street level I didn't feel comfortable leaving it open and unlocked. Additionally the in-room spa bathtub was also broken and the shades were haphazardly attached to the skylights. What a disappointment. I spoke with the front desk who promised a full refund for my stay (great!) but upon two follow-up emails I still have received no response from the hotel. I would love to speak with them but they seem to be unwilling to respond. I am very disappointed as the reviews seemed wonderful and the location was excellent. Unfortunately 'off-season' upkeep seems to fall very flat and this is not worth the money.
We wanted to stay at a nicer hotel for not as much money. Molly Gibson was that. It was a nice room with a fire place and courtyard view, Wood and starter included by the way. We would stay again at this hotel.
Beds were comfy and a great location.
Price. Fireplace in upgraded room. No elevator. Hotwire room is a bare bones room although I was granted a better room
Location is perfect , close to everything downtown and lifts. Breakfast was delicious . Staff was really friendly. Little chilly but it's winter in Aspen. No complaints
Easy walk into town, good price. Room was small and old. Odd loud ozone fan running when we got there.
The location was within easy walking distance...5 minutes.. To shops, pubs, etc. The room was large and nicely appointed...comfy beds. Great breakfast...felt like being in Europe.
Great location but the building could use an upgrade. The breakfast was great and the pool and hot tub was very nice. The rooms have window air conditioners that are installed in the side of the wall. Ours did not cool the room properly which made our stay quite unpleasant.
The hotel was awesome. The location was one of its best features. The outdoor heated pool was nice as well. Although I don't recommend in the winter time. I say that from experience. Nothing.
Impresssed with staff, full breakfast in rate.
Location, breakfast pretty good Surly, unfriendly staff - just one but he was so unfriendly and irritated to have to make coffee (I didn't ask, just observed) that I wondered if he was hungover . . . Same guy was pretty much the same at the front desk. Seemed resentful of his job.
Clean and luxurious. Friendly staff.
quiet,elegant and hospitable. Walking distance to all good things. none
Excelent image, very classy. The place to be in Aspen. Staff was extremelly helpfull (we had lost our luggage)
A beautiful turn-down service, lovely bathrooms, comfortable beds, fast internet and helpful staff. The mini bar was disappointing, but empty enough to stock with my own purchases. It's a stretch to find any other complaints.
This is my second time to stay at The Gant and I was just as pleased with the accommodations, staff and location as before. I enjoy being able to walk to anywhere you want to be in Aspen in 5-10 minutes or you can take the Gant's shuttle. The Saturday Market is awesome and you should put it on your list of things to do. The Gant is on the quieter end of Aspen and I really appreciate that. My only hiccup was the beds weren't comfortable - not any of the three in Unit D-106. Of course, I sleep on a firm Tempur-Pedic mattress at home so that's hard to live up to.
If you want space, the Gant is a great option. We opted for 3 BR condo. (Note: the 3rd bedrrom is small.) Would definitely stay there again.
Good location easy to walk to town and shuttles whenever you need if you don't like walking.
Very nice complex. out of the way from noise. Excellent staff and shuttle will take you anywhere. Comfortable well decorated rooms. Little bit of noise from adjacent units. I would stay there again in an instant!
The Gant is located within walking distance west of the base of Aspen Mountain. Our upper floor unit had two bedrooms, dining room, living room w/fireplace, balcony, and full kitchen. In summer, it was a little warm as it is not air conditioned. Staff was very friendly. Nice Pool and Tennis courts. Would definitely stay again.
This place was big, beautiful, and in a perfect location. It was extremely clean, the staff was very nice and helpful. I will stay here again on my next trip. Beautiful rooms!
We loved our stay at The Gant! The resort staff was friendly and helpful, and upgraded us from a one bedroom to a two bedroom upon arrival. The condo was clean, had every imaginable amenity (including a Jacuzzi tub and steam shower), quiet, and spacious. The property was beautiful, and close to town! We loved the hot tub after a long day of hiking...can't wait to stay here again!
I will stay there any chance I get! Easy location, with great shuttle service and friendly, helpful staff that helps you with all of your needs! The views, hot tubs and pools are unbeatable. Thanks for another great stay.
The Gant is an awesome place to stay, especially with friends and family. We hope to get the chance to stay there again.
The condos are tucked away at the base of the mountain within a short walking distance to all of downtown Aspen. The staff was attentive and courteous and the condo shuttle vans provided a way to get to the ski resorts (and downtown if you didn't feel like walking) quickly and easily. Two large hot tubs and a heated pool were ideal for soaking after a day on the slopes. Our condo was a good size and very well appointed, clean, and modern. Overall the grounds and amenities were very well maintained. The only problem was that you could hear what we presumed to be the hot water pipes knocking in the ceiling regularly throughout the night. We were on the first floor and this could have been isolated to our unit but if I go back I will request a top floor unit.
In room espresso maker had only 1 pod of regular coofee. The other was decaf.
The amenities, staff polish and overall experience was excellent. Robert at the front desk was exceptional. I would happily always make the St. Regis Aspen my home while in town.
The rooms were just ok - i have stayed in way better 4 star resorts. However, the heated pool and hot tubs were great. Overall i'd say save your money and stay in a nice 3-4 star hotel instead. waaaaaaaay too many dogs!!!! To a non pet owner, this just doesn't give the 5 star experience. I did not have good service in the bar. Our luggage was not delivered on time from valet. Also, the spa amenities were nice but not too clean, the showers were clogged and hair was everywhere.
Location and scenery. Proximity to town. Large room. FEES which add up the cost.
At first I was disappointed to not be in downtown but the 15-20 minute walk through the beautiful neighborhood turned out to be a plus. The shuttle service was reliable if you choose not to walk and bikes are also available. The rooms are spacious.
Beautiful. Spacious. Spectacular views. Special experience. No.
Beautiful setting, large rooms, free shuttle to town, free internet. Nice restaurant, free coffee in AM, numerous newspapers available. Smores over a fire in the evening. Nothing
The service was excellent, and the setting was very peaceful. The health club was great!
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
The room was beautiful. The staff was wonderful. The hotel was not downtown near the shopping and restaurants
Wonderful hotel!Little far from town, however the hotel had an accommodating shuttle to bring guests around the town and to the mountain connections. HUGE well equip rooms (apts or suites rather) and a wonderful staff.I look forward to my return.
The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were large and spacious. The hotel grounds were beautiful. The carpet was dirty, my daughter was crawling for a few minutes and had black knees and hands. We also had a leak from the unit above us in the morning and had to leave early. The hotel said they would comp us a night though.
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
The location was great. Staff was really friendly, accommodating, overall great! View from our suite was amazing.
Uniqueness with it's association to the Art Institute. The setting is beautiful. The rooms were enormous and clean!! At first it seemed far removed from the downtown area that we thought we wanted, but the shuttle was a convenient way have getting the best of both worlds!
The staff was great,the wine service at nite was fun,the pool deck was relaxing and its proximity to activities in aspen was great. It was incredibly loud. I unfortunately didn't get any rest. If anyone is looking for a relaxing night in the room look elsewhere, the walls were paper thin and all sorts of activities were going on around me at 3 am that were unfortunately not addressed by the staff up front
Great location, very nice outdoor pool and hot tub, staff was excellent, and rooms were very nice. No complaints
The Apres Ski in the bar was amazing. Great place to people watch and to meet people.
The shuttle, location, snowboard in/out, service and breakfast was great. All of the employees at the Inn at Aspen were very helpful. We were constantly in contact with the hotel when our flight was cancelled and they were very helpful with assisting us until our arrival.
free breakfast, ski in ski out.
Staff at the Inn were very accommodating. Availability of the hotel shuttle was great. Drivers were very helpful with local information. Was booked in a room that was VERY far and required a lot of walking.
Super convenient to all Aspen Mountains. The official X Games Hotel. Very accommodating staff! Nada
It was close to the slops and the staff was very helpfull and nice the sole thing is that they clean the room once a week
Great location. Clean, comfortable room. GREAT breakfast every morning. The helpful staff went out of their way to make me feel welcome!! I will definitely be back!
staff room size, not like picture. Breakfast is below average!
We stayed in the Victorian room which was decorated nicely. The staff was very helpful and the homemade cookies at the reception desk were great. Coffee was good. Everything was clean. And the location was right in town. It was a nice change from the chain hotels. Breakfast was a little strange--coldcuts and tomatoes--but it was included in the price.
Friendly front desk person. Late breakfast and under par food. Room on noisy street.
Breakfast buffet Close to ski bus stops Very nice team running the place
Friendly staff and good location. N/a
staff was very friendly. breakfast was yummy with cold cuts, cheese, tomatoes, cereals, bagels, and more. great location in citycenter. good prices and value for the money!
Liked the bed and the breakfast bed too high
Cheapest beds in Aspen. Friendly staff. Nice hot tub outside that remarkably was heavily used this past weekend despite the huge dump and freezing temps. No valet, no covered parking.... To be expected. No air conditioning and lack of elevators. Our booking was last minute admittedly and my buddy and I wanted to be placed in the same room but management couldn't accommodate. If you are traveling with someone call early and demand the same room it's not automatic. They do have a complimentary breakfast although we didn't indulge.
Not enough parking
I made my reservation online and I thought was a hotel because the website NEVER said anything about the price is just for one person and we have to share the bathroom This place sucks! I have to pay double!
Proximity to town was great. Loved how nice the units were. Very well kept. New feel, wasn't a "run down lodge". Room was on Main Street. Was pretty noisy with cars until 10pm and car traffic again around 7am. Adjoining room was just as well left open. I could hear every little thing the neighbors were doing. Wifi connection sucked. Had a difficult time connecting to Apple devices. Never was able to connect to PC
Nice tv. Fridge in room. Needs were comfy. Pool. Great location. Parking garage.
Great location in Aspen. Also, very well priced for the location. Very old hotel. It appeared as though they were doing some renovations while I was there but the hotel is definitely on its last leg. Unfortunately, the room wasn't carefully cleaned, either. On the surface it looked clean, but there were a few things left in the bathroom in the bathtub and the sink, and most of the surfaces in the room were quite dusty.
The staff was very friendly. They had wine and cheese at 4 pm every day. Our room was pretty clean and the location was excellent. A quick bus ride to Ajax and a ten min drive to the airport. We were on the lower floor and there was consistently heavy footsteps/noise from the room Above us. Walls are thin in this hotel. There was no room service (food menus) and no restaurants walking distance. Getting a cab was difficult and there are no ubers in aspen. Although we were there during New Years so didn't help. 400 a night, but then again it's aspen and a five star hotel is 1500 a night so go figure.
I would come again. Maybe a better breakfast selection.
The location is a short walking distance for most of Aspen's attractions, in a quiet and pleasant neighborhood. The lodge is quaint and historical. The accommodations are comfortable and homey. Our king size bed was very comfortable. Sitting around the kitchen table in the morning was a great way to sta starty the day. The price of the lodging was a bargain...especially for Aspen. There was nothing that we didn't like about our visit. We were not disappointed about our choice of the Snow Queen as a place for an Aspen get-away..

Thought some of you here might be interested. http://www.operationac.com/currentprojects.html MREs for UK Troops: Here is how you do this. Create your login on the Adopt A Service Member page (see black area at left) and then when you are searching for a service member put in the unique ID shown below in the box (24164) and click shop online to get into the Virtual Carebox and you will see the MREs for UK troops listed on the left. Choose it, click on the picture, add to the basket and finish your cart. At the end, you get an email and one goes to the UK commander letting them know you bought them a case of MREs. Hopefully this will start an email correspondence. All MREs will be shipped to UK troops in Basra. Our troops get them already. The Brits love them so we are doing this because this is what they like. We also will have the ability shortly for you to adopt them individually as they sign up we will put search for UK troops. Anyone interested in getting their UK soldier some combat boots, email me directly and we'll make it happen. (email@example.com).

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the history of ideas
October 20th, 2011
Episode 154 of 533 episodes
Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss Delacroix's painting Liberty Leading the People. In 1830 revolution once more overtook France, when a popular uprising toppled the French king Charles X. A few months later, the artist Eugene Delacroix immortalised the events of the July Revolution in a painting which remains one of the icons of the age. His allegorical depiction of a Paris barricade, with the figure of Liberty clutching a tricolore while standing on a pile of corpses, is a powerful image which has provoked much debate in the years since it was first unveiled to an enthusiastic public.Producer: Natalia Fernandez.

Embracing an inclusive culture will boost your bottom line. According to research by McKinsey diverse organizations outperform their more homogenous counterparts by 35%. [1] Moving beyond just gender, race and sexual orientation, true diversity is achieved when diverse perspectives, education and experiences come together. Embracing a mix of inherent and acquired diversity, "employees are 70% more likely than those at non-diverse publicly traded companies to report having captured a new market in the last year and 45% more likely to report having grown market share. [2]"
However, standard diversity practices aren't working. Reported in a recent HBR research article, Harvard and Tel Aviv academics collated data from 800 US firms over 30 years concluded, "Diversity programs aren't increasing diversity." [3] One example—among many—of stagnate or declining diversity, Fortune found that, amongst CEOs the percentage of women is in decline, this year alone dropped to 4.2%—a mere 21 women CEOs out of the 500. [4]
This disconnect lies largely in the fact that most organizations haven't done the work necessary to create a collaborative, inclusive culture. Organizations need to embed diversity and inclusion into every aspect of the employee lifecycle—hiring, onboarding, performance management, development and learning.
Join us for the debut of the HCI Inclusive Diversity Conference and hear from thought-leaders who have shifted the focus from checkboxes, ineffectual training and annual rankings to a transparent system in which leaders and employees are engaged and accountable.

Getting you more information on this room
Our stay was from 29 March - April 5, 2004 My first stay at the village, my wife and I were very pleased with all the facilities. The ride to the beach was not a problem in fact was great to meet people.
Everyone was pleasant and staff empolyees were very friendly. Food items were good. The Outback tour was...
Hi all...how often does the shuttle go to the beach? Thanks.
As this will be my first stay in an all inclusif, I don't know how to tip. Do you tip each time you go for a drink and meal, or only at the end of your stay? What would be a good amount for a tip?
Thanks you very much!
More questions...is this a smoker friendly hotel? I don't really expect to smoke in our room, but on the balcony, beach, and open-air areas...is it allowed? We were in Punta Cana 8 years ago and I believe we only needed US$ for tips and souvenirs - has that changed?
Thanks everyone!
We will be traveling with three toddlers and four adults. Can you recommend a private shuttle van service to and from airport. Thanks tilby kern
Hi , We are thinking of going to the Dominican for christmas and I read the review about the hotel, Are the villas renovated? I have read a few reviews and most say they are renovating some of the rooms .
See all questions
"rooms near kids playgound (we had a big balcony, corner room on 3+th floor)or villas"
"Nothin tv no working went to the lobby. Didn't do nothing
They Are really really bad. With customer services."
"You have to spend some hours for finding an acceptable and clean room. But don`t give up. Maybe you can find an acceptable room."
"Don't go here"
"Go to a different resort!!!!!"

The wealthy right wing have always liked to pick on the working class. And now Wall Street wants to blame Main Street for the financial crisis our country is in. Big bankers taking home large bonuses are blaming the childcare workers and parking-meter collectors in this country, saying that their jobs are the reason we're in a recession.
If you stop to actually look at the people and jobs Wall Street is attacking, you realize that we need to stop the lies. Public-service workers make little money and do the hard jobs necessary to keep our country running.
In 2009, public service worker Joe Wisniowski made $40,000 as an Airport Equipment Operator for an Ohio airport. Meanwhile Wall Street raked in $20.3 BILLION in bonuses during the same year.
As Robert Bonds, a parking meter collections assistant in Detroit, puts it: "What is this teaching my son? You can work hard, go to college to get your degree, and it's all out of your hands; your success is based on somebody sitting in an office somewhere on Wall Street... that's not what I want him to believe."
Public-service workers are coming under attack like never before. Wall Street has the money, the power and the media mouthpiece to spread lies about those who serve our country in necessary jobs. We can't let Wall Street destroy the backbone of America. Join with us to defend public service workers.

Charlie Sheen needs a happy-ever-after
WASHINGTON Charlie Sheen's bizarre public behavior over the past few weeks has reminded me of a character he played in the movie Major League.
Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn was a nearsighted, ex-con relief pitcher whose control on the mound was so bad that no one wanted to hit against him. Sheen's character was so strange and unpredictable that not even other misfits and also-rans and voodoo worshipers in the clubhouse would get near him. But wow, was he fun to watch. You never knew what mayhem was hiding below the surface of a talented, but flawed, man.
One day in practice, Wild Thing's manager, Lou Brown, played by the late James Gammon, watched him light up the radar gun at 96 mph while never throwing a strike.
"Better teach this kid some control before he kills somebody," the grizzled manager told a fellow coach.
It turned out that Wild Thing only needed a pair of black-rimmed glasses to find his control.
If only it were that happy-ending easy.
Chuck Raasch USA Today columnist
It's ridiculously tempting to say that what we have been witnessing in Sheen — the egomaniacal lashing out, the unconvincing reassurances that he's just fine while binge piles upon binge, the enablers that crowd into his addictions, and the media that cash in on his meltdown — is simply life imitating art. Sheen has, after all, played an addicted philanderer in his hit series Two and a Half Men.
But in a real-life episode that says as much about us as it does about him, Sheen's story has transfixed computer clickers across the country. For the past few weeks, Sheen's erratic behavior has routinely pushed the truly and destructively strange Moammar Gadhafi off the top of the most popular stories on news websites.
In truth, the Sheen-o-ram mocks any conventional definition of reality and provides an unsettling view of modern media. His rant calls to shows with names such as Fox Sport Radio's Loose Cannons are beyond even the imagination of screenwriters. But hey, this once-in-a-lifetime meltdown is ratings gold. CNN scored an interview, NBC aired a couple. ABC queued up a 20/20 special for Tuesday night.
In Gadhafi's case, of course, real people are fighting and dying in Libya's civil war. In Sheen's ill fantasies, he is on the same level.
"We're definitely at war," he said of CBS, which has canceled Two and a Half Men for the rest of the season. "Defeat is not an option. They picked a fight with a warlock."
In that moment, he had become Chris Taylor, the young infantryman he played in Platoon, Oliver Stone's 1986 Academy Award-winning movie about Vietnam. Like his father did in Apocalypse Now, Sheen's character narrates the surreal depravity of war.
"Somebody once wrote: 'Hell is the impossibility of reason,' " Charlie Sheen says in Platoon. "That's what this place feels like. Hell."
Then, and now, you want to place an arm around his shoulders and get him the hell out of there.
Sheen's character in Two and a Half Men is a milder version of the philandering and addicted man that we are watching self-destruct. Maybe the only way to rescue him is through the fantasy characters he has played. Certainly, there have been warnings along the way.
In Wall Street, another Stone classic, Sheen played Bud Fox, the corrupted and eventually disgraced young stock trader who eventually helped take down his onetime hero, Gordon Gekko. Sheen's Bud Fox faced his own meltdown moment in that movie.
Veteran trader Lou, played by Hal Holbrook, takes the chastened and defeated Sheen under his wing.
"Man looks into the abyss, there's nothing staring back at him," Holbrook says. "At that moment, man finds his character. And that is what keeps him out of the abyss."

But Brabender contended that the college's apartment-style residences are also luring students to stay on campus.In turn, the spiraling number of on-campus students has sparked the college to consider building as many as three new residence halls for next year, adding to the 12 apartment-style buildings that already exist.A larger residence hall with much smaller rooms holds 172 of the students, according to Brabender.That residence hall also lacks the private bathrooms, cable and Internet connections that come in the other buildings.Eight of the 12 apartment-style buildings were constructed by Iowa Central carpentry students.For the college, growth in the on-campus student population has sparked an expansion of resources.Brabender pointed to a new wing in the student union's cafeteria - heavily used,

Fujitsu added its new family of professional notebooks Lifebook E. These three teams 15'6, 14 and 13'3 inch thickness have reduced by 25% and weight by 15% compared to the previous generation.
But the most characteristic feature of the models Lifebook E753, E754 and E733 is undoubtedly its versatility thanks to its modular bay. In the space normally used for DVD, these notebooks can also include an external battery, an embellishment, the second hard drive and even a 40 lumen LED pico. This feature is useful for internal and customer meetings, as it eliminates the need for an external project. This is the first time a manufacturer allows this possibility.
The new equipment Fujitsu have Intel Core i7 vPro processors, memory up to 16 GB, HDD 500 GB or 512 GB SSD and port replicator with four USB 3.0, VGA, DVI, two Display Port, eSATA and LAN.
Its range reaches 9 or 10 hours, but combining the two batteries can extend the range up to 18. Another advantage is that you can charge through a USB connection when turned off.
Of course, security could not miss among the new batch of Japanese notebooks. The Lifebook E offer exceptional protection for important data and ensure information against unauthorized access by third parties, theft protection, TPM, hard drives with network encryption, smart card reader and fingerprint reader options.
Its price is 900 euros for the most basic model. The pico is sold separately and costs about 200 euros.

|Re: Poor performance "race condition" in FieldSortedHitQueue
|Wed, 09 Aug 2006 07:02:41 GMT
Hi Otis, I think that synchronizing the entire method would be an overkill - instead it would be sufficient to synchronize on a "by field" object so that only if two requests for the same "cold/missing" field are racing, one of them would wait for the other to complete loading that field. I think there is no need to that a lookup() for field2 would wait while a different field1 is being loaded. I am not sure if IO wise it makes sense to serialize the loading of two different fields (i.e. the case that both field1 and field2 are not in the readerCache), I would prefer not to. One fast way to do this, for testing performance impact in Oliver's test case, would be to sync on the interned field name. as follows: public StringIndex getStringIndex (IndexReader reader, String field) throws IOException { field = field.intern(); synchronize(field) { // < ----------- line added Object ret = lookup (reader, field, STRING_INDEX, null); if (ret == null) { final int[] retArray = new int[reader.maxDoc()]; ... load field to cache ... } This way only requests for (loading) the same field would wait. But for the working code, it wouls be better to maintain a by-field (and by-reader) object to avoid messing up with a system wide string - who knows who else is synchronizing on it...

After the Breakthrough by Helga Nowotny
Book DescriptionThe discovery of high-temperature superconductivity was hailed as a major scientific breakthrough, inducing an unprecedented excitement and expectation among the scientific community and in the international press. This book sets this research breakthrough in context, and reconstructs the history of the discovery. The authors analyse the emergence of this new research field and the way its development was shaped by scientists and science policy-makers. They also examine the various settings in which the research was undertaken, as well as considering the scientific backgrounds and motivations of researchers who entered the field following the original discovery. The industrial connection and the general belief in promises of future applications were important elements in strategies devised to obtain funding. A remarkable factor in this process was the media's role. The sustained attention that followed the discovery of high-temperature superconductivity resulted in it being seen as the symbol of a new technological frontier.

Those close to John Smith hinted he may follow Mr Kinnock's advice and come down against creating a 'supporters' club' of trade union members, who would pay a reduced fee but have voting rights.
The issue will now be seen a test of the commitment to modernise the party by Mr Smith, who is planning to make his position clear at Wednesday's meeting of the party's national executive, or shortly after.
The 'registered supporters' scheme would help to widen recruitment, but Mr Smith is expected to accept that this is outweighed by the disadvantages of the scheme, including the difficulty of implementing it. He has publicly supported reducing trade union power by ending block voting at party conferences and over the selection of the leader and deputy leader. He supports the choice being made by constituency parties and Labour MPs, each having 50 per cent of the votes.
Mr Kinnock made it clear on the BBC television programme On the Record that he was disappointed at Mr Smith's failure to press the issue of one-member- one-vote democracy to a vote at the Labour Party conference last year, when the former leader believed it would have won majority support.
He said the compromise scheme was 'cumbersome, expensive and confusing, and couldn't in any way be superior to a one- member-one-vote system for selecting parliamentary candidates.
'And it's the view that will prevail simply because of the practicality as well as the democracy of one member one vote, and the impracticality of diluted versions of that system that have been considered.'Reuse content

Welcome to the July edition of Stephenson Harwood's Data Protection Update, a monthly bulletin on key developments in data protection law.
In this issue, the proposed 'right to be forgotten' is again addressed within the context of the guidance sought by the Spanish Audiencia Nacional from the European Court of Justice (ECJ).
Separately, there are further updates on the EU DP regulation, most notably the response from influential political figures to ensure the EU DP regulation remains firmly on the political agenda ahead of the elections of the European Parliament in May 2014. Stephenson Harwood also looks at other proposed amendments to the framework, including allowing national DPAs to have further discretion in imposing sanctions…

Great spot for after work. Relaxed atmosphere with nice bar, friendly local staff and nice varied menu
Most of the time the food is good. It is sometimes difficult to get the waiters to actually bring what you want. Their pizzas are great, the vegetarian lasagna (made with no flour) is great as well. But the rest, food and service, is inconsistent, sometimes great, sometimes really not.
Always enjoyable! Love their appetizer special when available Cauliflower Parmesan!

Recent reviews
Good 3.9 /5 from 18 reviews
Good Location and acceptable breakfast. Room was good comparing the price we pay.
Decent location, pretty close to almost everything. But the bed was rock hard, the pillows were flat, and the shower was horrible - hardly any hot water and not even enough pressure to get the shampoo out of my hair. The reception desk was on the second floor and the rooms on the fourth, but since you had to turn in your key coming and going, you had to constantly climb five flights of stairs. The breakfast was decent, with some very nice ladies working, but one of the breakfast rooms was incredibly loud with slamming dishes and whatnot. The front desk wasn't stocked with the advertised wine or beer, and the guy working the desk was more interested in whatever he was doing online instead of taking care of his customers. We were allowed to leave bags after checkout in order to see more of the city, but there was no secure location to put them. Oh, and the safes were all broken, so there was nowhere in the rooms to secure our valuables. Our parents had overflowing trash cans and ran out of toilet paper, but were treated very poorly when they requested that their room be taken care of. Overall, it was okay - but not worth what they charged.

Native Brooklynite Damaris Lewis takes us on a tour through the iconic borough of Brooklyn, New York
We spoke with Damaris Lewis, the model who appeared in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issues for three consecutive years about her favorite places. But first, what is it she loves about Brooklyn?
"What I love about Brooklyn is that it's the melting pot within the melting pot that is New York City." Aesthetics and style are an integral part of a model's daily life. Damaris recommends Bel Air Dominican beauty for beautiful and healthy locks on Putnam Avenue in Clinton Hill.
A self-proclaimed tomboy, Damaris admits to wearing sneakers more often than heels. Her go-to place? "Vinnies Styles on Flatbush avenue is a great place for sneakers."
With a plethora of excellent dining options in Brooklyn, Damaris prefers classics such as meatballs and also Mexican and Caribbean cuisine. "My favorite restaurants are the Meatball Shop in Williamsburg. It's a great place to go when you want a switch up from the traditional utensils and dimmed lights restaurants. My girlfriends and I always hit up Burrito Bar in Park Slope for our Mexican fix! Last, but not least for my Caribbean cuisine fix I go to Footprints. It's amazing West Indian food with two locations in Brooklyn."
When staying overnight, there are plenty of wonderful hotel options in Brooklyn such as the sophisticated Marriott Hotel. "The Marriott Downtown Brooklyn is my favorite. I've never stayed in a hotel since I was born here, but my friends stay there."
One of Brooklyn's best-kept secrets-- a favorite way to spend a delightful sunny afternoon, is located in Brighton Beach. "The boardwalk in Brighton Beach is open all year round and when it snows it looks like a winter wonderland."
During Spring, Brooklyn bursts with activity for the young and old. A popular annual festival is Dance Africa; a vibrant celebration of dance, music, art, film and culture from Africa and its diaspora held at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM). "My favorite event that I am an alumni of myself is Dance Africa at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Great performances and a huge bazaar outside, every memorial day weekend."
Each Brooklyn neighborhood has its own unique characteristics but for Damaris, the one area that stands out is Clinton Hill, known for its largest concentrations of beautiful row houses from the post-Civil War period and prominent residents like Mos Def and Rosie Perez. "Most of my close friends live in this neighborhood, so when I am there I always feel welcome."
Must-see attractions are the Brooklyn Cyclones (named after the famous Coney Island Cyclone roller coaster) for baseball fans and the Barclays center, a sports arena and home of Basketball team the Brooklyn Nets (partly owned by Jay-Z). The Barclays Center is scheduled to open on September 28, 2012 with an opening concert by Brooklyn's own Jay-Z.

It's NSFW for reasons I'm not quite sure I want to explain to you… but it's kinda worth it for the Taiwanese Animators' opening shot alone:
I think this is the third fake story "reported" by Fox News' Todd Starnes in the past two weeks. But I could be wrong since I've only read three of his stories in the past two weeks.
His latest version of "fair and balanced" spin takes us to Frisco, Texas, where Starnes writes that an elementary school has "banned Christmas trees and the colors red & green from an upcoming 'winter' party":
Last week, the Chicago chapter of the Freedom From Religion Foundation placed an 8.5-foot-tall Scarlet A monument and banner in downtown's Daley Plaza (on Dearborn and Washington):
Chicago Sun-Times columnist Neil Steinberg, himself a self-hating atheist in the style of S.E. Cupp, can't stand the displays. But before he could explain why, he took the time to complain about atheists as a whole:
I am not an atheist. Atheists are zealots, too, elevating denial of the divine into a kind of faux religion, complete with pieties, and manage to be as aggressive and joyless as those who at least can blame a higher power for making them the way they are.
Rather, I am an agnostic. Agnostics know what we know but don't make a fuss. We're the Unitarians of the nonbelief community.
The reason Steinberg thinks atheists are joyless is because all the happy ones manage to stay away from him.

I can't tell which side of the mythical War on Christmas this video is on… but it's awesome, so I'll say ours.
Rhode Island's Governor Lincoln Chafee just can't win.
For the past two years, he called the blue spruce erected in the State House a "holiday tree" instead of a "Christmas tree."
He had good reason for it:
… Chafee, an independent, said the term is in keeping with the state's founding as a sanctuary of religious tolerance and pointed to the text of Rhode Island's Royal Charter of 1663.
"The charter, which for the first time in the world gave 'full liberty in religious concernments.' Those are the words. First time in the world. It happened right here in Rhode Island," Chafee said.
Chafee also said the State House is public building paid for by Rhode Islanders of all faiths.
Way to not exclude non-religious citizens!
But after years of taking a beating from conservative groups and Fox News Channel, I guess that whole "religious tolerance" bit is a thing of the past.
Chafee has surrendered to the populists and is now calling it a "Christmas tree":

Effects of Argentina's Social Security Reform on Labor Markets and Poverty
Maria Laura Alzua
CEDLAS, Universidad Nacional de La Plata
Hernan Ruffo
affiliation not provided to SSRN
June 1, 2011
PEP MPIA Working Paper No. 2011-11
In 1994, Argentina introduced Pension Reform and Unemployment Benefits as a major reform component to its social security system. This papers analyzes the effects of introducing new individual accounts in the pension system - which was under effect between 1994 and 2008 - over wages, employment and poverty. While the macroeconomic effects of a change in the pension system is an issue that is relatively well addressed by the literature, its microeconomic effects are often neglected in the analysis.
We use a CGE model to evaluate the effects of the reform on labor market and poverty. Our results indicate that if private pension funds are allocated to physical investment, labor demand and wages increase and poverty goes down. However, these effects fade out if funds of private accounts are used to buy government debt.
