ATLANTA- The Georgia State baseball team has inked 10 talented signees during the fall early signing period- eight high school seniors and two junior college transfers.
Every player comes from the baseball-rich states of Georgia and Florida, including five high school seniors from the metro Atlanta area.
The class will enroll at GSU in the fall of 2012 in preparation for the 2013 spring season.
"Excitement is the word that comes to mind when I think about this class," says head coach Greg Frady. "This is the most talented and deepest group we've ever signed during the early signing period.
"As a staff, we assessed our needs and targeted Georgia and Florida for the pieces that we needed," Frady says. "(Assistant) coach Jason Arnold deserves a lot of credit for helping us reap the rewards of this terrific signing class."
Here is the class:
Nathan Bates - RHP, Starr's Mill HS (Ga.)
A right-hander from Senoia, Ga., who towers on the mound at 6-foot-7. He led Starr's Mill to a win over rival McIntosh junior year by allowing just one run in a complete game victory.
McCauley Bryant - RHP, Alpharetta HS (Ga.)
Right-hander who helped lead Alpharetta to a region championship and the final eight of the state playoffs as a junior. He also earned team MVP honors as a sophomore.
Brantley Burton - RHP, Lithia Springs HS (Ga.)
Right-hander who was one of the top players both on the mound and at the plate in Region 5-AAAA. He tossed a perfect game for Lithia Springs as a sophomore against Tri-Cities.
Andrew Fessler - LHP, Gordon College (Ga.)
Left-handed pitcher who went 3-2 with a 3.59 ERA over 20 appearances on the mound as a freshman at Gordon College. He allowed just four extra-base hits in 42.2 innings of work. The Dallas, Ga., native attended South Palding High School.
Garrett Ford - LHP, Loganville HS (Ga.)
A left-hander who led Loganville High to the state semifinals as a junior. He joins the ranks of Panther pitchers from LHS like current right-hander Ben Marshall and former star Romas Hicks. Ford also starred on the gridiron as a quarterback for the Red Devils.
Shane Gordon - OF, Rockledge HS (Fla.)
Multi-talented outfielder from Florida's Brevard County who has also pitched for the Raiders.
Matt McCloskey - RHP, Lake Brantley HS (Fla.)
A right-hander from central Florida who appeared with the CFBL Elite Prospects at the 2011 Under Armour Fall Classic.
Josh Merrigan - OF, Walton HS (Ga.)
Switch-hitting outfielder who has also pitched, guiding Walton team to state AAAAA playoffs as a junior. Plays on the 6-4-3 DP club team in metro Atlanta.
Chase Raffield - OF, Gordon College (Ga.)
Outfielder who redshirted last season after compiling one of the best years in Gordon College history as a freshman. He batted .392 in leading the Highlanders to the 2010 Region XVII title, setting a school record with 23 doubles and 83 runs scored while belting 14 home runs. He is a product of Bleckley County High School in Cochran, Ga.
Matt Rose - 3B/RHP, Palm Bay HS (Fla.)
A right-handed pitcher from Florida's Brevard County who can also play third base. He played with the Palm Bay East All-Stars, making two consecutive trips to the Senior League World Series.
"When we add these players with those we'll already have in place, it will put us in great position for the future," Frady adds.
The Panthers will begin the 2012 season in mid-February, looking to reach their fourth straight Colonial Athletic Association tournament and fifth in Frady's sixth season as head coach.
GSU has won 30-plus games in four straight seasons.

|Sibling Rivalry: Playing Favorites
Do you feel like the adults in your family treat everyone, including the pet fish, better than you? Maybe your little brother gets the PlayStation game that YOU asked for, or your Dad has a special nickname for your sister because she made the softball team.
Nothing makes kids develop rivalries and jealousies faster than when they feel that a parent is playing favorites. But the big question is: are they REALLY?
If our parents make it obvious that they really like something about our bro or sis, it can seem as if they like that child better...especially if you're feeling not-so-sure of their love for you. It's much easier to take out our anger on another kid than an adult, so although we may feel angry with our siblings for getting treated better, in reality, we're really just mad at our parents because we think they're playing favorites.
Sometimes, what seems like favoritism is really just loving recognition, such as: "Sam, good job cleaning up the kitchen," or "Brittany, that hairstyle looks great on you." When parents say these kinds of things, it doesn't mean that your sibling is smarter, prettier, more loved, or even that he or she comes first in your family. Think about it. Do you say to yourself, "Dad is better at making pancakes, so I love him more than Mom"? Hopefully not!
Are your folks truly playing favorites? Here are some questions to ask yourself:
If these questions bring up some confusing feelings, talk to a parent about them. A great tool for expressing yourself is the "I-Message," which will help you communicate in a way that really gets results! Use this

Kim Kardashian took to her website, KimKardashianWest.com, on Tuesday to "elaborate" on her Monday night Twitter tirade, in which she fired back at celebs who criticized her for posting a nude selfie early Monday.
"In all seriousness, I never understand why people get so bothered by what other people choose to do with their lives," Kardashian, 35, wrote. "I don't do drugs, I hardly drink, I've never committed a crime—and yet I'm a bad role model for being proud of my body?"

The reality star received criticism for the photo -- which she censored with black bars according to Instagram's community guidelines -- from celebs like Piers Morgan, Bette Midler, and Chloe Grace Moretz. But for Kardashian, displaying her body on social media is a show of inner strength.
"I am empowered by my body. I am empowered by my sexuality. I am empowered by feeling comfortable in my skin. I am empowered by showing the world my flaws and not being afraid of what anyone is going to say about me," she wrote. "And I hope that through this platform I have been given, I can encourage the same empowerment for girls and women all over the world."
The reality star also opened up about being empowered by husband Kanye West, who reposted one of Kardashian's nude selfies on Tuesday with the simple hashtag, "#muse."

In the wake of the backlash, Kardashian received support from starlets like Miley Cyrus, Abigail Breslin, Ariel Winter, and Bella Thorne, who defended the reality star's right to do what she wants with her body and also called out the double standard for shirtless selfies between male and female celebrities.
"If a guy posts a shirtless picture, people say how 'steamy' and 'hot' it is," Breslin pointed out. "But if a woman chooses to do that, it's setting a bad example?"

In her post, Kardashian also opened up about her desire to be a positive female role model for 2-year-old daughter North West.
"I feel so lucky to have grown up surrounded by strong, driven, independent women," she wrote. "The life lessons I've learned from my sisters, my mother and my grandmother, I will pass along to my daughter. I want her to be proud of who she is. I want her to be comfortable in her body. I don't want her to grow up in a world where she is made to feel less-than for embracing everything it means to be a woman."

Moretz and Midler both responded to Kardashian's Twitter tirade on Tuesday, but it wasn't enough for the reality star, who spoke out against what she felt was unnecessary and offensive commentary on her social media posts.
"It's 2016. The body-shaming and slut-shaming—it's like, enough is enough," Kardashian wrote. "I will not live my life dictated by the issues you have with my sexuality. You be you and let me be me."
"I am a mother. I am a wife, a sister, a daughter, an entrepreneur and I am allowed to be sexy," she continued, concluding her post with the hashtag, "#happyinternationalwomensday."

CALVARY BAPTIST ACADEMY: Students perform with KCEA choir
CLYMER -- In early October four students from Calvary Baptist Academy began to prepare for KCEA's All-State Choir. Every year students from around the state audition for a chance to sing in the Capitol Rotunda in Harrisburg. This event is hosted and planned by the Keystone Christian Education Association.
Eager but nervous students gave it their all before and during their auditions. CBA's four students were thankful they had their music director, Benjamin Dawley, to help them prepare for the audition.
The music directors in each participating school coached their students on notes and pronunciation of the words.
About 140 students from across the state performed in the concert.
The four students to participate from Calvary Baptist were two seniors, Paige Heiple and Lauren Wolfe, and two freshmen, Rachel Covato and Brittany Prugh.
As the students arrived at Grace and Truth Bible Church in Hummelstown, where they practiced on Nov. 15-16, they were greeted by this year's director, Richard Shelburne, and the first conductor-turned-accompanist, Dr. Craig Ralston.
Shelburne has served as Minister of Music at First Baptist Church of Land O'Lakes, Fla., since May 1999.
He has more than 30 years of experience in leading music at churches, schools and colleges. Dr. Ralston was the director of All-State Choir in 2009. As Shelburne's good friend, Dr. Ralston agreed to be the accompanist for this year's performance.
The students performed at 11 a.m. and again at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 17. The concert consisted of 11 songs. One of the songs the students sang, "You Are the Music," by Dan Forrest, was the second performance of this song ever done.
The students also tackled "O Nata Lux," by Morten Lauridsen, which is a challenging Latin a cappella song. The favorite song of this All-State Choir was "Chosen as His Children," by Paul Keew.
As their final number, the students sang Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus," which turned out to be the highlight of the concert.
The performances in the Capitol Rotunda were enjoyed by many. As the concerts finished, the students said goodbye to both new and old friends; many look forward with anticipation to next year's All-State Choir.

Be good! RJ
Hey RJ, good to hear from you again. Thanks! I think it's just an illusion cause of the angle that I took the picture. I'll pull her out again and give it a good look from far back, but last time I really paid attention it seemed just fine. My next goal is to get the remaining parts for the engine (starter, water pump). rebuild the transmission, get the roll bar / cage going, and to rebuild and paint the chassis. Once I get all that done I can get the engine in. I'm hoping to have all that done by April. I just depends on how much funds I have to spend.
Once I get her going I'll definitely take it down to the track and I'll be sure to let you know when I plan to go.

Invention by Design; How Engineers Get from Thought to Thing (edition 1996)
by Henry Petroski
Work details
Invention by Design; How Engineers Get from Thought to Thing by Henry Petroski
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This book does a great job at explaining the engineering design process without the need for cartoonish diagrams.
References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English (2)
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0674463684, Paperback)
Henry Petroski's previous bestsellers have delighted readers with intriguing stories about the engineering marvels around us, from the lowly pencil to the soaring suspension bridge. In this book, Petroski delves deeper into the mystery of invention, to explore what everyday artifacts and sophisticated networks can reveal about the way engineers solve problems.
Engineering entails more than knowing the way things work. What do economics and ecology, aesthetics and ethics, have to do with the shape of a paper clip, the tab of a beverage can, the cabin design of a turbojet, or the course of a river? How do the idiosyncrasies of individual engineers, companies, and communities leave their mark on projects from Velcro® to fax machines to waterworks?Invention by Design offers an insider's look at these political and cultural dimensions of design and development, production and construction.
Readers unfamiliar with engineering will find Petroski's enthusiasm contagious, whether the topic is the genesis of the Ziploc baggie or the averted collapse of Manhattan's sleekest skyscraper. And those who inhabit the world of engineering will discover insights to challenge their customary perspective, whether their work involves failure analysis, systems design, or public relations. Written with the flair that readers have come to expect from his books, Invention by Design reaffirms Petroski as the master explicator of the principles and processes that turn thoughts into the many things that define our made world.

Dapper Hour
You damn kids and your Pitbull music, your Culture Room, and your Vagabond. Where's the Friday-night music event that will soothe us and booze us without raping our earholes with 150-decibel 808? Does no tonic exist for Miami's relentless assault of crunkism? And if that tonic does exist, can we pour some gin into it?
Cue the Bass Museum, standing politely at 2121 Collins Ave. on Miami Beach, with a healthy 7-to-9 p.m. dose of Hot Nights, Cool Jazz. Throw down ten bucks (or no bucks if you're a member) and let the Dave Fernandez Quartet marinate your brain in tonal harmonies while the folks at the Bass keep the free drink in your hand constantly replenished. It's the perfect recipe for closing your briefcase and opening up the weekend's endless possibilities.

Our staff is very dedicated the children of our community, and will take every opportunity to provide healing support and understanding to every child in need. At our funeral home, our Children's programs are very close to our heart and we hope that you will take advantage of them if the need arises in your family. Please contact us to learn about the Children's programs at our funeral home and in our community.
One very important way to increase awareness of children's needs is to dispel the myths that surround their grief.
Myths About Children and Grief
1. Young children do not grieve. Children grieve at any age. Their grief can be manifested in many ways depending on their age, developmental stage, and life experiences. Children often do a very good job at grieving intensely for a time and then taking a break. The break is usually in the form of play. Adults often mistake a child's play as a sign that the child isn't grieving, which is just not true.
2. Children should go to funerals. Children should not go to funerals. Both statements are myths. Children, even very young ones, should have a choice whether they want to attend the funeral. Each child handles their loss differently and should be allowed to grief as they wish. For their choice to be a meaningful one, they need information, options, and support.
3. Children get over loss quickly. Adults never get over a significant loss so why should children? The truth is that no one really gets over a significant loss. We can learn to live with the loss and adapt to the reality that the one we love is no longer here, but we can never forget the intense feeling of loss. Children may revisit their loss at different stages in their development and as their understanding of the loss changes, their grief may arise again.
4. Children will be permanently scarred by a significant loss. Children, like most people, are resilient. A significant loss can affect a child's development but adequate support and continuing care can help them deal with their feelings of grief appropriately.
5. Encouraging children to talk about their feelings of grief is the best way to work through their loss. It is important to allow children to talk through their feelings and to promote open communication. However, other approaches, such as art, play, music, and dance allow children to express their feelings.
Children and adolescents may use these methods to express their grief and adapt to their loss with a more positive outcome. Working through grief and adapting to loss is important for children. Studies have shown that children and adolescents that have unresolved grief are at a higher risk for developing depression and anxiety as adults. It's important then that family members recognize the needs of grieving children and help them access the resources they need.
Below, please find a list of books available to help with the grieving process in young children, as well as information on our Children's Grief Connection.
I'll Always Love You by Hans Wilhelm
Missing Hannah by Darlene Kane
Badger's Parting Gifts by Susan Varley
Dragonfly Door by John Adams
Flying Hugs and Kisses by Jewel Sample
Memory Book
We also offer a "Memory Book" providing children with the opportunity to express their feelings and concerns in a creative art activity.
The children can express their feelings, such as memories of a favorite place, favorite food, or something they've learned from their loved on who has died. It also includes activity suggestions - writting a letter, placing a picture in their book, saying good bye - and reminds children that there are many people that care for them.
Because children are so special, we are very proud to support Children's Grief Connection, formerly known as Camp Amanda-Minnesota. Children's Grief Connection is a nonprofit organization that works in partnership with Minnesota's funeral directors to provide grief programs for children and teens who have experienced the death of someone important to them. It is specially designed to provide the support and information children need, in a way they can understand.
Founded and supported by members of the Minnesota Funeral Directors Association the Children's Grief Connection provides all its services and programs FREE of charge.
The Children's Grief Connection of Minnesota mission is to bring hope and healing to Minnesota's grieving children.

raw hide bones for puppies
Can puppies at 16 weeks have raw hide bones to chew on? My pug is chewing everything in site!
Asked by
Member 713733
on Aug 21st 2008
in Puppies
- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
As long as you are there to supervise, rawhides are OK. You may want to consider rawhide "chips" as opposed to small rawhide bones. They are less likely to choke on a piece of a rawhide chip that a piece of a rawhide bone (in my experience). Just, PLEASE, NEVER EVER give your dog a rawhide to chew on without supervision!!!
Have you looked into other chews like Kongs, Nylabones, etc? I would prefer an appropriate sized kong toy stuffed with edible goodies to a rawhide. They even make Kong "Stuffin" that comes in a can (looks like cheese in a can) that you can fill the kong with; keeps a dog busy for hours!!! You can even fill them with peanut butter! Kongs are much safer than rawhides, and safe to fill and leave with your pet unsupervised.

My opinion of raw hide chews:
I do NOT give raw hide anything to my pups or adult dogs. I have found that unsupervised they can be a choking hazard. This is MY opinion on this type of "chewy".
If you want to allow your pup to have raw hide treats, I suggest you get your Vet's advice as well about raw hide treats. You may be surprised at what he/she tells you.
If you still want to allow your pup to have raw hide, I recommend NEVER allowing your pup to be unattended with one, and to throw it away BEFORE it is chewed down small enough to be a choking hazard.
Also, raw hide can become kind of slimy after being chewed on. This makes them become slippery as well, and easily choked upon too.
There are lots of other kinds of chew toys for pups. I suggest speaking to your Vet for a safe alternative, especially if your pup will be left unattended with the treat/toy.
Happy Tails to you and your pup!
Hannah answered on 8/22/08. Helpful? / 0
I never give my dogs rawhide bones. They are not easy to digest, and can cause more harm than they can good. Larger breeds seem to not have such an issue, but I still don't give them to my Dobes. My little ones absolutely LOVE bully sticks. They are a little more expensive, but they are very easy for a dog to digest and help to clean their teeth. You can also purchase any type of dog toy that a dog can chew on, but won't end up ingesting if pieces fall off, etc. You don't want your dog to have a plastic toy and end up eating half of it, which is why the bully sticks are great replacements. You might try getting one of those, see how your Pug likes it - really no reason why he wouldn't love it. When does your dog chew up things? Do you let him run around all of the time unsupervised? Does he have a crate you keep him in? You may also need to invest in a crate for him to stay in when you can't watch him. Also try to keep him out of places in your house where you don't want him in

I suggest Beef bones from the market, cut off most of the meat though. It keeps them busy and it's good for little sharp teeth, wet food just rots there gums. These bones are great all year round.
Karlie R.I.P October 12th 07 answered on 8/22/08. Helpful? / 0
Besides rawhides, you can also try out different chew toys and find which ones your dog likes. I would recommend a combination of rawhides and chew toys, so that your pup has more variety to choose from.
Don't forget to redirect the chewing behavior. In other words, when your dog is chewing on some inappropiate, show them the appropiate thing(s) to chew on and praise and richly reward for chewing on the right things.

Holy Cross High School Eamon Tubridy '85 Memorial Basketball Tournament
Bourbon Street
Sunday, May 19, 2013 from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM (PDT)
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
Basketball ran through Eamon's blood from the time he was a small child, right up until his premature passing in December 2011, at age 44.
Eamon was a leader of the Freshmen, Junior Varsity and Varsity squads and was named Most Valuable Player when he led the Knights to championship of the Long Island Lutheran Christmas Tournament. Eamon was named an all-league player and was recruited by several schools to play basketball at collegiant level, including New York University, where he attended and earned his degree.
During Holy Cross' 50th Year Celebration in 2005, Eamon was named to the 1980's All Decade Team as part of the school's Top 50 Players of all time.
Eamon's basketball legacy is carried on by all of those who ever shared a court with him, especially his wife Kathleen and children Tommy, 15, Eamon, 14, Katie, 12 and Bridget, 4, who have inherited his passion for athletics and competative spirit.
This Memorial Tournament is a real tribute to Eamon's life, because it reflects his belief in putting others before yourself and his understanding that life isn't about what you say, but about what you do.

Adam Johnson, Author, The Orphan Master's Son
Author, The Orphan Master's Son; Winner, 2013 Pulitzer Prize and 2013 California Book Award for Fiction
In conversation with Martyn Williams, Senior U.S. Correspondent, IDG News Service; Founder/Editor, North Korea Tech
Here is a rare chance to meet one of America's most prominent novelists and to get an inside look at his prize-winning work, The Orphan Master's Son. The Pulitzer committee called The Orphan Master's Son, set in North Korea, "an exquisitely crafted novel that carries the reader on an adventuresome journey into the depths of totalitarian North Korea and into the most intimate spaces of the human heart." Johnson spent several years researching the book, his third, reading historical accounts and propaganda about the isolated country. He also read personal narratives from the few people who have defected or managed to visit North Korea under a tightly controlled state-sponsored trip. Johnson's fiction has appeared in Esquire, Harper's, Playboy, Paris Review, Granta, Tin House, The New York Times, Best American Short Stories. He is the author of Emporium, a short-story collection, and the novels Parasites Like Us, which also won a California Book Award.

Long function defintions
How do you define a function with a very long body and a bunch of
intermediate results. For example
f[x_] :=
y = (Do some long integration)
z = (solve an ode which depends on the value of y)
t = (do another long integration)
assign (y + z + t) to f!!!
The idea is that a function is best read if it is broken up but the
parts are not important enough to be made into their own functions.

Shangri La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa - Al Waha
Top Resort Hotel
My husband and I stayed at this hotel resort for 2 nights, 3 days - July 2009. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere of this hotel was wonderful. Beautiful location and setting. The lagoon access room we reserved was wonderful. One of 3 infinity pools was right off of our balcony - perfect! Room was well stocked, clean and comfortable - definitely 5 star.The outdoor facilities (swimming pools, pool side service, water sports) were great! Many complimentary water sports to take part in - water aerobic class, kayaking and snorkelling to name a few . The sea was a bit rough the first and third day but the water temps were perfect! Gardens were in immaculate shape! While at the beach free towels were offered to use and also a small cooler with water, mister and cold facecloths! However not all the restaurants were open and the ones that were open were not all that exceptional which is what you would expect from a 5 star hotel which is as expensive as the Al Bustan.. T...
I stayed in this hotel in August 2012. It was the hot off season for Muscat, so the hotel gave me an excepionally low rate. This was the best deal I have revieved from a Ritz Carleton ever. Great pool and beach area. Hotel lobby very nice. However, the food was only average.
the L.tea lounge and the bar the location of my room was on the top of ball room, and was noisy at night.
health club price
great location great beach access this is a tired hotel - 3 stars at best
Muscat is a low-key location. It's ideal for a relaxing break if you don't want to spend a lot of time touring sights and shopping. The hotel staff were always friendly. We booked a club room to take advantage of the lounge facilities. The complimenary breakfast was simple but adequate, while evening canapes were poor and not worth the room price. I also got severe dysentry from the Christmas Day buffet so staff hygiene is clearly a concern. Our biggest frustration was effort to get our bill after each meal. It took repeated requests and >15 mins every time.
The shower in the room, most standard room in most five star hotel don't have separate shower that's one thing the other thing is restaurant with the swimming pool togethere, I've been some of the five star hotels and some of them only have bars along the pool area and the kitchen is in side the hotel, especially in big cities. Yes, I don't like the room because no kettle to make tea or coffee, no hair dryer.
The relaxing atmosphere & the nice beach To start with, the hotel ended up charging me 150 omani rials extra upon checking out. I did tell them about it 4 days ago & they still have not resolved it. Your beach is easily & frequently accessed by construction workers who walk along the beach during their lunch breaks. I do not believe this is acceptable & makes your guests uncomfortable especially the ladies. The hotel was way too expensive for the services offered. For that price I could get into a more luxurious hotel in Dubai where I live.
hotel design and layout is great, specially the pool side. Very inmature staff and inexperienced, the check in took us 2 hours and we had to change all room categories in order to get connecting rooms despite my request earlier. My credit card was charged three times (by mistake!) so i ended up paying triple the amount
Relaxation, good spa, excellent gym, very good dining lack of private beach
The breackfast buffet didn't have as many choices as other 5 star hotels I have been to.
Club Room offered excellent value for money and staff were very helpful and efficient
The Hotel is very relaxng, well laid out and is enjoyable to stay at.
The friendliness and efficiency of the staff - nothing was too much trouble. Food was great. The setting is not ideal being near to a factory but other than on the beach you can't see it. The beach is average.
the gardens were amazing and the breakfast buffet fantastic and included in the price the rooms had showers only it was a shame there was no baths, the lighting made if difficult to see however made the rooms look great. The room design was all about making them look fantastic but they lack practicalities like some where to put clothes or hang towels. The hotel is on the beach but it's not a pretty spot there are better beach hotels like the omani dive centre
The incredibly beautiful rooms and grounds; the food which was for the most part gourmet; the extremely professional staff; the location/beach Value for the money....it was definitely on the expensive side.
courtesy of the staff, design and quality, attention to detail, feeling special
Stunning contemporary hotel with as real luxury feel.
Beliggenheden og udsigten The hotel is worn and was overbooked. The elevator was always busy, it was not possible to get a table outside the restaurant not even morning or evening. Had booked a smoking room but it was not possible to open any window at the room, which is making the room unbearable to stay in, even for a smoker.
the atmosphere, room service and quality
- Very nice location not too far from Muscat. Very suitable both for business and pleasure. Nice hotel garden with swimmingpool with ocean views. Private hotel beach. 4 restaurants in the hotel. - Quatity is good and very authenic Omanian. Price hoever is pretty international.
The sea view rooms, the large size of rooms, the breakfast buffert Poor bar and snack outlets
Service and facilities were really excellent - it took a while but eventually on check-in they found my reservation and were exceedingly polite and helpful. The hotel was beautiful and the staff very helpful. No.
The staff was very friendly and helpful with the luggage and they were very patient The bed linens need to be upgraded to match the other Crown Plaza hotel's linens
we liked the hotels stunning location on a cliff looking out over the ocean and the restaurant at the cliff edge Pool needs updating/refurbishing, didn't like the fact that we couldn't open the bedroom window
Spacious, comfortable rooms, good quality beds and products. The fact that we were not told that the full buffet breakfast was inc in our cost until the 3rd day!!!
The situation overlooking the Arabian Sea. Convenient for airport and town. Satisfied overall
Very good location and the food was excellent the price
My room was on the second floor and had a nice view of the sea. However even though I am a platinum member with Holiday Inn (same group), I was not allowed access to the club floor lounge and there were no upgrades or any perks allowed. I think that the Holiday Inn group need to examine their policies regarding an upgrade because in any other Intercontinental hotel there is always an upgrade but not in this one. This hotel just does the minimum needed and their customer service is not very friendly or helpful. One needs to ask for a higher floor because the hotel has a nightclub on the lower level and you can hear the "thump" "thump" of the drums as late as 3AM in the morning. The concierge does not have information about restaurants and tours and the hotel is very unhelpful about giving information about independent operator tours. There is no doorman to help with your luggage which I thought of a strange for a five star hotel
The club house
The friendliness and effiency of the staff the perfect location and the excellent food
Sheeting on bed had holes in. Staff at checkin were very unhelpful
The Service of the people, they just go out of their way to serve you. The hotel is well designed and decorated and the rooms are that too. It was a comfortable experience as a whole.
Facilities were great but the bar and food prices were a bit on the expensive side. The staff were excellent and I would recommend this hotel to anyone. We will use it again.
Location Very noisy outside and dark hotel.
The room was a bit over priced for the age of the hotel. In room entertainment was inadequate since the TV was many years passed it's prime. The addition of the DVD player was a plus.
Everything you need available 24hrs, beautiful views and gardens Expensive
Located within easy walking distance of nice selection of coffee shops and shops. Friendly staff and locals. Whilst clean, the room was dated. For the price it was not good value for money.
Excellent hotel for extended stay as they provide kitchen and utensils if you are interested in cooking your own food. located in a mall with theater so convenient for shopping and catching up with a movie. Breakfast. Room rate included breakfast. But very limited options, all below par quality. Omelette - dont order. it is egg fried in oil. they pour atleast 10 teaspoons of oil and then egg. so basically the egg is fried.
My time in the hotel was brief as I had a full agenda but the business centre was very useful mid trip. Courtesy and value for money ranked highly.
Staff was very friendly and helpful!
More of a business hotel. Staff could not give me a bill because the hotel room we paid for in advance. I thought its odd that I cannot get a zero balance bill in case there are issue that come up later. Duty manager helped sort this out however.
Courteous staff, prompt service, wide variety of choices from the room service menu, although it is on the pricier side. However, the food is really good. An item from the minibar was missing (not taken by me) and I was charged for it. However, after telling the front office staff that the item was not taken by me, it was removed from my bill.
the apple a day thing... the bed pillows...too high/thick
The staff was quite helpful. Once they found out it was our honeymoon, they graciously upgraded our room to business class and popped for two free drinks in the bar. First of all, if you're coming to Muscat for a getaway, don't stay in this neighborhood. It's quite urban and far from everything, including the cute old town area. The hotel calls itself a 4-star but it is barely a 3-star. We were upgraded to a business class room upon arrival and when we walked into the room we were extremely disappointed; we would have been disappointed had it been a regular room. The rooms were small, outdated, and not comfortable. There was mold in the bathtub and the bath products left our hair dry and brittle. Worst of all, the staff messed up our massage reservations so we were unable to have massages on our honeymoon. All in all, our stay was a major disappointment.
Nice room. Ex-high price,higher than 5* hotels in Dubai.Very smal parking area,open parking in this v.hot country?! Average restaurant and meals.
Clean, comfortable rooms & friendly staff . The hotel is in a convenient location for the Airport and popular areas, such as the beach & shopping malls. The Tajin restaurant was particularly good value for money and the level of customer service far exceeded our expectations. exceptionally good. The fact that they blocked a large amount of money from our credit card for the reservation, without making this clear at the time of check-in.
Their pool is wonderful and the Olivios Cafe had fantastic food. The prices were a little expensive.
Staff professional treat Food for room service sucks, internet connection disappointing and prices are over rated.
Nothing Gave me the wrong room and had to enter on someones else room. At the reservation they said at the beginning thatthere is no booking done and had charged me a much higher rate. Then they found that they had a problem and
The rooms, coffee and the food at Olivos was phenomenal
Positives: 1. Location 2. Parking 3. Room size 4. Staff friendliness 5. Breakfast variety and setting Negatives: 1. Sound proofing poor 2. Table lamps with broken or missing floor switches 3. Inconsistent towel supply; varying every day 4. Some metal works in bathroom rusty 5. Armchairs were useless and I challenge any human being to be able to sit comfortably on them (later got them changed with slightly better but still uncomfortable ones). 6. Delivery of morning paper inconsistent, one day there, another day not. 7. TV picture quality very poor 8. Refrigerator not cooling (later got it replaced with a working one) 9. No advertisement of New Year party held in the hotel (found about it the day before by accident) 10. TV size not matching with room size 11. Poor lighting in the room.
free late check out free wifi location was not ideal - most cab drivers have difficulty locating hotel hotel room's bathroom smelled moldy
Very courteous staff. Great job. The additional bed provided was not comfortable. They replaced it with a mattress on the floor which was not ideal for the extra 10OMR per night that we paid.
Clean and spacious No alcohol / bar; not the friendliest staff
Could not Check in until 1am! I arrived at the hotel at 11pm!
proximity to airport cost
hotel staff is cold. swimming pool is cold. furnitures in the room are old. BUT prices are high. I really don't understand why it is a 4 stars hotel !
only stayed at your hotel for 7 hours, while waiting for later flight home in London. The room was fine, and the evening buffet was excellent! However the reason we stayed with you, was to send words, pictures, and video to London. Myself and my travelling companion are both journalists, and were working from the Hotel. We found your internet service very poor and slow, and for most people working from a Hotel away from home or office, internet speed is of paramount importance. if you want to attract business people to your Hotel, internet speed, ease, and access in your rooms is very important!
Very limited choice of restaurants and not normal Golden Tulip standard of food
Close to Airport and Exhibition Car Parking space is not enough
It was close to the airport This hotel it too expensive for what a dump it is. This is a hotel that should have be either raised or totally remodeled a long time ago.
poor check in / check out, but apart from that.... very good.
Expensive Internet
Pleasant hotel,clean but in need of refurbishment. Staff were very polite and welcoming. Convenient location for airport which is ideal for the business traveller. Bar is lacking in atmosphere. I thought the bar lacked atmosphere, however as I only stayed for one drink this was not a problem
Spacious and clean room. Breakfast was good. Staff in restaurant was excellent. Ladies in reception were concentrating more to each other than to customer. They didn't know the difference between credit and debit and asked if I have another card (which I gave to them because I noticed that it was hopeless to discuss with them). We gave list of goods which we took from mini bar but they didn't accept it. From their own list was missing goods. It was not question about big money but I would like to see that persons who are working in reception should take eye contact to customer and not just murmur with each other.
We were given a quiet room on the 6th non smoking floor and we had a panoramic view south across Muscat.The hotel has an outdoor pool which is quite adequate and is close to the old parts of Muscat with the souks and palace The outdoor sunloungers are of the cheap plastic type
This is a good and clean hotel with excellent housekeeping services. The staff were helpful and there is also adequate parking within the hotel complex. The hotel should invest a bit in promoting the different facilities of the hotel i.e. during check-in, the staff should speak about the Japanese restaurant, pool timings, pastry shop etc.
It is a decent family Hotel for short stays...
Cleanliness & services are really good. For business travellers, we need wireless internet services, in the room or in lobby or even in the restaurant. Other than business centre there is no wire less internet service. Dial up services in the room is very poor, you dail up today and you may get the connection tomorrow ( Insha Allah )
Staff were lovely and the food in the coffee shop was very good The hotel is very dated and badly decorated. It is extremely expensive for what it is. It was at best, a 3 star hotel, not 4 star as advertised. For that price, I should have spent a little more and booked a Hyatt or Sheraton.
The courtesy of Omani staffs in the Hotel The hotel is very old, needs a complete revamp. The size of the room is very small for the amount charged. The furniture in the room are very old. There is no feel good factor when staying in the hotel
The Japanese Restaurant on the top floor is excellent. Cheap internet access. Decent selection at breakfast. It is also centrally located for exploring old Muscat and beyond. On our first night the noise from the pub "Nuts and Bolts" was horrendous with the Music booming right through the building. We were on the 4th floor and i would hate to think what it would have been like on a lower floor. This was a Thursday night (it went on until 3am) and thankfully we did not hear it again for the rest of our stay.
We had a room were it faced the Indian church and they had festival going on the entire time.(very noicy and loud) We had one towel in the room and had to call for more , twice. Since the festival was going on the parking lot was full and there was no parking. The Hotel chrges of tourist fee and service charge is so expensive(might wanna mentioned the % in the hotel description)
Nice clean room, good breakfast, nice pool. Location not good for beach.
Nice swimming pool and the gym was good

Opinion: No Sympathy Needed. My School is One of the Good Ones
When people learn I work at a transfer school they often respond with sympathy, saying something like "so you really have it tough!"
Yes, teaching is a difficult craft, and managing a classroom full of adolescents of varying interests and abilities can be challenging, but what most people don't realize are the advantages I have because I work at a transfer school. My school, West Brooklyn Community High School, runs more effectively than most traditional high schools I have worked in and I consider myself lucky to be here.
WBCHS is for over-aged, under-credited students who are at least 16 years old, are on at least a sixth grade level in reading and math, and had attendance issues at their previous schools. These factors make our student body different, and are what define us as a transfer school.
What we have in common with other New York City schools are issues related to poverty, teen pregnancy, violence, English language skills, literacy and numeracy, peer pressure and bullying, to name a few. Also similar to other schools: our young adults are creative, motivated, kind, supportive, talented, and capable.
On a typical morning, I arrive at the former Catholic school building around 8:15 a.m. and head to the cafeteria for "case conferencing" where all the teachers, administrators, and counselors meet to review our students' academic, socio-emotional, and behavioral issues. I recently participated in what we call a "roundtable" for a student who is almost 21, has accumulated few credits and, we suspect, has a serious drug problem. We spent about 30 minutes that morning discussing how to keep him safe, communicate his whereabouts with his counselor when he was not in the classroom, and connect him to a rehabilitation facility or other safe place when he transitions out of our school.
Then it's off to the classroom.
While I am straightening up desks and distributing copies of a book (a recent example: Sherman Alexie's The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian), I hear the counselors at the school entrance greeting students. By this time of the day, many have already spoken to students on the phone, sometimes to wake them up.
I use a workshop model in my English classes: independent reading, a short writing assignment, a read-aloud, and a class conversation about the text. After this, students work individually or in small groups. We close with an "exit ticket."
So what makes WBCHS an "easier" (for lack of a better word) school community? It boils down to our systems and structures. Our classes are small: fewer than 26 students per class, with many classes much smaller than that. Each of our students has an advocate counselor with whom they meet on a regular basis. During each trimester we have five benchmarks, giving students a chance to receive their course grades – and meet with their teachers - often.
In addition every teacher in the school uses the same grading policy; faculty and staff help maintain a strong school culture; we use common language to communicate our expectations. Instead of punishing students for academic and social infractions, we conduct mediation. We are a strengths-based school and that culture is evident in everything we do.
That said, we hold students accountable for their work and actions. Absences are unexcused. Students fail to receive credit for missed work without an official note. Problems are not allowed to fester. Frequent meetings between a student, counselor, and teacher are a non-negotiable element of our community.
To make it work, WBCHS provides a great deal of support to the teachers. During my first year, I met weekly with an instructional support specialist to work on curricula and receive feedback and suggestions based on regular observations. Keep in mind, I was no rookie; it was my 10th year of teaching. The vast majority of academic teachers have a prep period at the end of the day, which allows us to collaborate. Department meetings occur weekly; department facilitators and administrators meet monthly.
The counselors communicate regularly with parents and students, in and out of school, allowing teachers to focus on our students and on curriculum development, lesson planning, grading, use of data, and our many other responsibilities.
Yes, teaching is difficult. And exhausting. But just because our students are older and have dropped or transferred out of traditional schools does not mean they are inherently difficult or unruly, at least not more than any other adolescent.
West Brooklyn's philosophy, culture, approach to relationships, and systems are meant to support all students by building upon their strengths and overcoming their weaknesses, both in and out of classrooms. I know many types of students would flourish in this kind of environment.
I only wish all of our city schools were more like mine.

… loves his company.
A colleague of mine emailed this to me this afternoon. I'll give you three guesses who "our favorite student" is…
So, our favorite student came in to see me today. He wanted to know if his grade improved and what he's missing, so I gave him the long list that I gave him the other day and told him it hasn't changed (both the gist and the grade). Then he went into our website to upload an assignment that was due 6 days ago and was complaining that it wasn't there for him to submit his assignment. I said, "I know it's not there, it was due 6 days ago. When you miss the deadline, the assignment closes." He's not too happy about that. Then I pointed him to the syllabus and had him read the late work policy. I told him he needs to nail this project and the final in order to possibly pass. He told me he would do a good job and I told him, "No, you need to ace these if you want to have hope at passing." He walked out of the room.
Sigh. Poor baby just doesn't get it.

Don't stop on that note, share some bullet points.

I believe the LEOs on the Forum (or anywhere else in the Country) won't comment on it. In reality, it's their choice, but I believe they wouldn't do something against their core beliefs as Americans.
I swore an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. Seems like an easy choice to me.
Easy choice for me. If it came to that, things have gotten to crazy, and I'm at home with mamma loading mags, making chilli, and starting to smoke again.
Then I'm going to have a few glasses of my Hiabiscus wine, get a little lovin in, and saddle up the horses and take a ride.
I swear to gosh, I think some of you all need to relax a little round here. Enjoy life and love on your spouses, or take a vacation.
This is just one of those things to watch, do what you can do, and plan as you can.
When it's time to fight, you fight, until then, have a smoke, a good glass of something, and chase your woman around the room a few times.
What I was attempting to point out was that this wasn't widespread/citywide gun confiscation, and that the only guns my guys took off the streets, were in the hand of bad guys, committing crimes. Agents working for me were not asked to, and did not participate in any gun confiscation efforts. We had tactical teams in the city, working with NOPD SWAT, and other federal agencies, chasing the "snipers" out of their hidey holes. Those "snipers" as they were referred to by the national media were really "pot shot artists" who would fire a round or two towards a rescue crew or helicopter, then bug out. Our teams responded to all of those calls, and sometimes found the gun(s) that were used.
I'm not disputing the video's, or the fact that some guns were taken from some people that shouldn't have. Just pointing out that there is more to this story, from the perspective of someone that lived it.
I'm not a LEO, but I know many. I also know many active duty .mil's.
I have asked each and every one of them this very question over the past few months and the overwhelming response is "no way".
I was suggested that some of the newbs on the force and in the service would blindly follow any given order, but anyone who understood their job would simply NOT violate their oath to uphold the Constitution. Most responses also included an understanding that such an action, however unlikely, might yield some results for a few days at most before the word of confiscations spread, after which there would be a significant reduction of participant life expectancy.... their words, not mine.
I am not a LEO but if push came to shove I would probably do a really horrible job at searching houses.
Why would you put the fine LEOs on this forum in this sort of quicksand? I've enjoyed their comments & gun-fellowship for wayyy tooo many years around here to ask them to publicly announce their willingness to ignore the law without FIRST making your own position clear as to whether YOU'RE willing to ignore the law (if it comes to that) to FORCE your local LE organizations to...come after YOUR guns! :blink:
None of the LEOs I know would follow the order to take away our guns. Going to a gun owners house as ordered is one thing. But, most of the officers I know will not be able to find anything.
"We went in and searched sir. However, we didn't "find" anything to be concerned about. It seems the firearms were already removed." :wink:
Way too much speculation and opinion here without factual information to back up claims.
LEO's take an oath to uphold the state and U.S. Constitutions. Confiscation without cause would be a 4th Amendment Violation, unlawful search and seizure. (probable cause may be the slippery slope in exigent circumstances)
Our Department General Orders forbid us from violating the law even if told to do so be a superior.
As a (retired) LEO, I swore to uphold the Constitution and would never violate your rights, period. Some of the youngsters might, out of ignorance.
"I was only following orders". Nazi war crimes trials...............

"This is my beloved pal Aggie (so named because I graduated from Utah State University…our mascot is Aggies). Every year Aggie and I take part in Strut Your Mutt which is a 1.5-mile walk to raise money for No More Homeless Pets (Utah Chapter). Last year Aggie and I were the number-two fundraiser; we raised over $1,300 and this May we plan to exceed that in the 12th annual event.
This photo was taken last May as Aggie (and I) relaxed in a fenced-off area called The Backyard (reserved for those raising $350 or more). As you can see, Aggie is in her element. Out and about and having a great time."
Go Ken & Aggie! Let us all know how you do this year! :)
Update: Aggie & Ken raised over $2,600 and won grand prize in the Individual Fundraiser category this year. Way to go!

Just put a smaller restriction in the turbo to solenoid hose and it hit the overboost fuel cut out straight away - wow. I had read about this mod on the Saabnet BB a few times and seeing as it is easy to do and cost's nothing I gave it a try. I will have to try with a slightly larger hole next time. I was thinking about the theory behind it - reduced pressure signal to the actuator - and reasoned that it is better to up the boost this way rather than crank the actuator arm in . With this method the wastegate is still able to open fully and prevent boost creep and overshoot. I guess the proper way is to put in a higher pressure rated actuator - but this gives an indication of what you can get with one?

Green Bay Moves to 2-0 in League Play with 62-41 Win Over WSU
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay women's basketball team ended 2016 with a victory over Wright State (9-5, 1-1) Saturday afternoon at the Kress Center, downing the Raiders 62-41.
The opening quarter of play saw the Phoenix (11-2, 2-0) get off to one of its hottest starts this season, with Mehryn Kraker pouring in 17 points on a 6-of-6 mark from the field and a perfect 5-of-5 performance from beyond the arc. The Phoenix led 25-12 after the opening period, despite the game once being tied at 12-12.
Both Green Bay and Wright State had trouble getting things going offensively in the second quarter, as the two teams combined for only 21 points, four less than the Phoenix scored in the prior quarter.
Green Bay used a big third quarter to put the game out of reach for Wright State, outscoring the Raiders 12-4 in the paint and 18-8 in the quarter to lead 53-31.
Mehryn Kraker used her hot start to carry her all the way to a season-high 28 points on 10-of-15 shooting with a 6-of-8 mark from three-point range in 30 minutes. Jessica Lindstrom tallied her seventh double-double of the season, scoring 13 points and pulling down 12 rebounds. The junior also had four assists and two steals in 30 minutes. Lexi Weitzer finished with six points on 3-of-7 shooting and four rebounds in 18 minutes.
