"The House this week will vote on a tax bill," reads an ATR statement. "This legislation — popularly known as "Plan B" — permanently prevents a tax increase on families making less than $1 million per year. Republicans supporting this bill are this week affirming to their constituents in writing that this bill—the sole purpose of which is to prevent tax increases — is consistent with the pledge they made to them. In ATR's analysis, it is extremely difficult — if not impossible — to fault these Republicans' assertion."

Let's give Katie Couric (and her producer Rick Kaplan) some credit for doing a better job interviewing Syrian dictator Bashar Assad then Diane Sawyer's flippant what's-on-your-iPod interview back in February. On Friday's edition of The Early Show, Couric appeared live to introduce the taped piece. She pressed the Syrian leader on his support for insurgents going across his border into Iraq, and even aggressively pushed him with a quote from Sen. Joseph Lieberman arguing that "The notion that Al Qaeda recruits are slipping into and through the Damascus airport unbeknownst to you and others is totally unbelievable. It is therefore time to demand that the Syrian regime stop playing travel agent for Al Qaeda in Iraq."
Couric explained "during that interview, he denied that Syria was as big a feeding point for terrorists going into Iraq as the United States contends." MRC's Kyle Drennen captured the transcript:
Bashar Al Assad: "What do they do, those terrorists in Iraq? They kill civilians. They create chaos. What interests have Syria in having chaos in Iraq? Chaos is contagious."
Couric: "Does that mean you support a stable, democratic Iraq?"
Assad: "Definitely, for our interests first of all, and for Iraq's interests second. Otherwise, the whole region, and maybe later, indirectly, the rest of the world will be suffering."
Couric: "U.S. Officials have said 80% of Al Qaeda in Iraq suicide bombers have entered through Syria at a rate of 60 to 80 every month. What have you done to crack down on this problem?"
Assad: "These are false allegations. Who are they? What their names? Actually, all these allegations just to divert attention, for the people, that the problem is political. It's not related to Al Qaeda. It's political problem in Iraq."
Couric: "So you're denying that any suicide bombers or terrorists in Iraq are coming from your country?"
Assad: "No, that's not the issue. Because any country in the world cannot seal its border. And the example is your border with Mexico. Nobody can seal its border."
Couric: "Let me read an op-ed by Senator Joe Lieberman that was recently published. "Syrian President Bashar Al Assad cannot seriously claim that he is incapable of exercising effective control over the main airport in his capital city. The notion that Al Qaeda recruits are slipping into and through the Damascus airport unbeknownst to you and others is totally unbelievable. It is therefore time to demand that the Syrian regime stop playing travel agent for Al Qaeda in Iraq."
Assad: "Well, that is nonsense. If we have any information about any terrorists coming through the borders, the legal border, the airport, or the other borders, we will capture him right away."
Couric: "You say that chaos does not work to Syria's advantage."
Assad: "Exactly."
Couric: "So you support the U.S. efforts to help establish a democracy in Iraq?"
Assad: "There's no -- if they only talk about military, numbers of soldier, raising of the number, or making draw-down. That's only what they talk about. There's no serious political process supported by the Americans so far."
Couric: "But I was in Iraq, in Anbar Province. President Bush and his other top officials were meeting with Prime Minister Maliki and his top leaders, trying to move democracy forward. Why do you say there's no political process going on?"
Assad: "We're talking about the results. It's getting worse every day. Nothing is better. Sometimes it gets better, but it's like flash in the pan---"
Couric: "Do you not support Prime Minister Maliki?"
Assad: "We support any prime minister who work for his country. I have good relation with him. He came to Syria a few weeks ago and we had very good meeting."
Couric: "Do you think his government has the potential to be is successful."
Assad: "We have to ask the question first, does, do they have authority to be successful? Do the Americans allow them to do what they have to do? From our knowledge, according to many Iraqi officials, they don't have the authority. The American leads everything in Iraq."
Couric: "Let's look forward. Do you believe that U.S. troops should withdraw from Iraq?"
Assad: "Definitely yes, as a principle. How and when, this is the Iraqi issue. We cannot decide it as Syria."
Couric: "Are you concerned, though, Mr. President, that if U.S. troops do withdraw, and do it too precipitously, the country will break out in an all-out civil war?"
Assad: "Some say, if they leave, it will get worse, maybe. So this is not the debate. As principle, they have to leave. In parallel, you have to have political process going with the withdrawal, in order not to have this chaos getting worse and Iraq get unstable again."
Couric: "Do you want to see America succeed in Iraq?"
Assad: "If the successful means political stability, we don't have any problem because we support any country in the world, including the United States, in succeeding in Iraq in that regard."
American TV viewers would have a lot more respect for tough questions to President Bush if the networks preformed like Couric did here, and pressed foreign leaders and international bureaucrats with the same kind of hard-driving inquiry as Bush receives in the East Room or the Rose Garden.

Police in Haverfordwest are appealing for information after a woman was assaulted on Friday night.
The woman was walking in the town's Jury Lane, near the park, at around 11.55pm when the unprovoked attack happened.
Police said they are keen to identify the male attacker, who they believe was wearing a knee length green coat with lots of pockets to the front.
Anyone with any information should contact Haverfordwest CID on 101.

For a while I've been eyeing the Le Creuset cookware. But I couldn't bring myself to spend the money on a dutch oven or other Le Creuset products. (Trying to save for that Kitchenaid Stand Mixer. Hint, Hint).
Recently, thanks to my parents' years of service in their respective jobs, they were gifted a Le Creuset cookware essential setas well as a Le Creuset Casserole dish. My Mom graciously passed these great items on to me. As soon as I had a chance, I decided to put these products to use.
This past weekend we had family visiting from out of town. I decided there is no better time than the present to put the casserole dish to use. You might remember the Three Cheese Lasagna that I shared with you in December. I decided to revisit this dish again, and make it in my new casserole dish.
The great part about baking lasagna in this beautiful, red casserole dish, is that I don't need to think of a way to present it on the table, once it's baked. This dish is perfect for presenting lasagna or any casserole to my dinner guests.
I am really looking forward to put my other newly acquired Le Creuset products to use!

- Cream Cheese Pastry, made without the spices
- 1 large egg yolk, lightly beaten
- 8 medium Granny Smith apples (about 3 1/2 pounds)—peeled, halved and cored
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 vanilla bean, split
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup aged rum
- 1 banana, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup apricot preserves, melted and strained
- Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving
Preheat the oven to 375°. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the Cream Cheese Pastry to a round about 1/8 inch thick. Fit the pastry into a 12-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Use a rolling pin to trim off any overhang. Prick the bottom of the pastry several times with a fork.
Line the shell with foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 25 minutes, or until lightly colored around the edge. Remove the foil and weights. Bake the shell for about 7 minutes longer, or until it is dry and golden. Let cool slightly, then brush with the egg yolk.
Meanwhile, cut 4 of the apples into 3/4-inch dice. Melt the butter in a large, deep skillet. Stir in the vanilla bean and brown sugar. Add the diced apples and cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar melts, about 2 minutes. Carefully add the rum and continue to cook until the apples are just tender and the rum is almost evaporated, about 6 minutes. Stir in the banana and dried cranberries; remove the vanilla bean.
Pour the filling into the cooled tart shell and spread in an even layer. Set the 8 remaining apple halves, rounded side up, on a work surface and thinly slice them, keeping the halves intact. Starting at the edge of the tart, arrange the apples over the filling in overlapping concentric circles. Sprinkle with the granulated sugar.
Bake the tart for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until the apples are golden and tender. Remove from the oven and brush the top of the tart with the apricot preserves. Let cool on a rack. Unmold the tart and serve with dollops of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Recently, Compete posted a blog interview with Jon Swallen, SVP of Research for TNS Media Intelligence. In the blog, Jon details the state of the auto insurance market, which included his view on growth opportunities within car & other vehicle insurance. Jon specifically addressed the growing importance of specialty lines, such as motorcycle, boat, and small commercial auto as private passenger auto business growth slows. We took a look at the online market for these three lines of specialty insurance.
Above is the online share of prospects (consumers that shopped online) for each specialty line between February '08 and April '08. While boat insurance holds the largest share at 57% among these specialty lines, motorcycle insurance is experiencing the highest growth. Motorcycle insurance today has only half the share of boat insurance, but online prospects grew by 138% between February and April 2008 v. 35% growth for boat insurance. Over the same period, the online prospect market for small commercial auto insurance declined a modest 8%.
Major insurers are putting a stronger emphasis on motorcycle insurance on their websites and in advertising. GEICO's homepage (above) prominently displays motorcycle insurance. Allstate has also recently launched its motorcycle-specific, interactive Allstate Garage (below).
The table below shows top destinations from searches for the term "motorcycle insurance." In line with their prominent placement in search results, GEICO and Progressive dominate search referrals with more than double Allstate's third place showing.
Motorcycle insurance still represents a small piece of the online insurance market. Compared to prospects for auto insurance between February and April 2008, motorcycle insurance represented less than 2% of total prospects combined. Even so, with gas prices up, more consumers are looking at motorcycles and scooters as a low-cost commuter option. Perhaps this is the reason that there is such a focus on motorcycle insurance these days. It should be interesting to see if it sustains recent growth.

5 lifestyle changes to lower your risk
Excerpt: During National Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October, women have even more reason to start paying attention to preventative measures: According to recent research presented at this year's European Breast Cancer Conference (EBCC), taking specific steps to help lower the risk of breast cancer can make the difference between a healthy checkup and a dangerous diagnosis. Researchers analyzed years of studies and data from the International Agency for Research on Cancer to deduce that one-third of all breast cancer cases can be avoided simply through diet and exercise—a surprising conclusion that raised eyebrows worldwide and contradicts the common conception that some women are powerless against the disease due to genetic makeup or family history. What's more, new research continues to compile to show exactly which nutritional and physical approaches can help best reduce your risk.
Ready to take action? We've sifted through the latest studies and talked to the leading experts so that you can know—and do—everything possible to prevent the disease.

President Obama's attack, during the final debate, on Mitt Romney's critique of the auto industry bailout was 100% false, i.e., a bald-faced lie.
When Romney said, during the debate, that in 2008 he favored a managed bankruptcy for Detroit's auto makers, with federal guarantees for post-bankruptcy financing, Obama directly claimed this was a falsehood, repeatedly saying, "Check the record."
Here's the record, via Mitt Romney's New York Times op-ed from November 18, 2008. Allow me to quote one representative sentence from that op-ed:
Here's the truth about Romney on GM: Obama lied

Opening comments:
"We feel very good about the win, very good about some things that went on. We don't have a zone, so it's hard to practice against a zone when we don't have one ourselves. That was great for us tonight to get that practice. It was great to get 10 guys with double-figure minutes.
"We did try to do a lot of things with a lot of different lineups. Four freshmen, first time they were in there, so I think it was good for them. Gardner-Webb had an experienced team, and they made us look bad at times. I am disappointed in how we played, but I'm not disappointed in my team.
"I think it was a good night for us, and I think we learned a lot. Hopefully, we'll be able to do some things tomorrow morning in practice to help us get better, and we need to be better on Sunday. We talked about earlier this week, six games in 12 or 13 days.
"James Michael [McAdoo] 26 and 14, those are pretty big-time numbers. I'd like him to do it without having to take 20 shots. We've got to have the other guys be more active on the backboards and not just him. I've been saying, with Leslie [McDonald] and Reggie [Bullock] and P.J. [Hairston] that we're a good shooting team. One for 12 from the three-point line doesn't look like it, but Reggie was almost unselfish to a fault tonight. He's got to take a couple more of the shots and guys have to got be willing to screen for him to get him open too.
'All in all, I congratulate Gardner-Webb. They did some nice things and it was a great help for us, and hopefully they gained some things from it as well."
On what he would like to see from the freshmen:
"Marcus made some mistakes, but I thought he was in charge out there. I think he learned some things tonight. J.P. [Tokoto] didn't play many minutes – 10 minutes – but he's an active body.
"I thought Joel and Brice were so much better in the first half than they were in the second half. Perhaps they got winded a little bit, but Gardner-Webb went small a little more so we had Brice or somebody guarding one of their perimeter players out there on the court. I think all four of the guys gave us something and I'm hopeful it will be something that we can grow on."
On whether or not it is concerning that Paige did not have any assists:
"We counted that he had several because two or three times there was a guy and that guy lays it up and gets fouled. Truthfully, that means the guard or whoever the passer is did his job. That really does not concern me. [On Marcus' four turnovers] That concerns me. Zero four, we don't like that, but he's a freshman, and he's going to be really good."
On whether Joel's play tonight will affect Sunday's starting lineup:
"I don't know. We started him the second half, but I think he could do some good things. He's got to stay out of foul trouble. He made some silly little fouls. Three for three is pretty good. You can tie it but you can't beat it. Four fouls, you've got to make better decisions on that. I think he did some good things, we started him, like I said, in the second half. We're going to play all those guys."
On what more he wants from Reggie Bullock:
"I can think of three situations completely where he's wide open. He's trying to be unselfish. Everybody else needs to try to be that way. The best shooter needs to try and step up and take some shots. He's doing what we asked him to do. He's taking it to an extent that it's a fault. I've said it before about good players, and I'm not really that concerned about Reggie. He'll be fine."
On how Dexter Strickland handled his first game back:
"I thought he did some good things. We're still not as smooth as I want us to be, whoever is in the game. I get on Dexter a lot for dribbling so much, and one time at the end he's dribbling but nobody is doing anything to get open. That's not his fault. He does a nice job of attacking the basket, and I think he did that tonight. We've got to get him to get a couple of rebounds. Twenty-four minutes is about what I expected and hoped to get out of him. Really I don't want to push anybody, but especially Dexter, Leslie and Marcus."

Hundreds of the figures have moved to Cowstead Farm, near Queenborough, on the Isle of Sheppey, in the latest stage of an ongoing art project.
Known as Hei People, they are based on the work of Finnish artist Reijo Kela.
Some of the scarecrows were destroyed while they were previously erected at Fort Amherst in Chatham. They have also appeared at Shorne, near Gravesend.
Several of the vandalised figures have been resurrected for the latest installation.
'Black ribbons'
Project manager Paivi Seppala: "We're hoping that the same fate doesn't come to the Hei People in Sheppey.
"They are wearing black ribbons in memory of their fellows from Fort Amherst."
The scarecrows are made from wood, straw and dirt, and are clothed with donations from charity shops.
They are based on the so-called Silent People - 1,000 scarecrows which have stood in northern Finland since 1994.
Pupils from Queenborough First School have created their own artwork based on the Hei People, which is on display at the Castle Gallery.

Second baseman Kolten Wong has been named to the US squad while his Double-A Springfield Cardinals teammate Oscar Taveras will be among the outfielders on the World team.
The annual exhibition featuring many of the game's top prospects will be played at 5:00 P.M. Central on Sunday, July 8 at Kansas City's Kauffman Stadium. Hall of Famer George Brett will manage the US Team and former Yankees star Bernie Williams will skipper the World Team. (Update: Full rosters here.)
Taveras, who celebrated his 20th birthday on Tuesday, leads the league with a .328 batting average and is second to Frisco's Mike Alt in both slugging (.588) and OPS (.973). The native of the Dominican Republic also holds the TL lead in doubles with 21, is third in RBI with 47 and tied for fourth in home runs in 13. His on-base mark of .385 is ninth. The left-handed hitter was voted the league's Player of the Week award for the period of June 4-10.
Pitching had dominated the Cardinals' invitees to the Futures Game in the last two seasons, with top organizational prospect Shelby Miller having competed in both of the most recent two contests.

SWINDON'S David Howell admits he faces an unusual challenge in India this weekend as he makes a radical departure from regular tournament play.
The Broome Manor pro will tomorrow take part in the IPL-influenced Pearls Golf Premier League, the brainchild of New Delhi-born Shiv Kapur, a former Volvo Masters of Asia champion.
The competition at Aamby Valley Golf Course near Pune will see eight teams of four compete over three 14-hole rounds in a stroke play/best ball format under lights.
Kapur has managed to attract a talented field to mix with players from the host country, which includes double Major winner Angel Cabrera, 2011 Open winner Darren Clarke and former US Open champion Michael Campbell.
Teams were chosen when eight franchises lodged bids on players at auction, with a fourth player added to complete each side on the basis of the overall spend of the franchise.
"The whole thing is a little bit different," said Howell.
"It's not straightforward or generic. It's a novel event and I suppose its success will be determined on how much the sponsors enjoy it.
"I don't think this is in any way trying to shape the future of golf, it's about trying to create interest in the sport in a new region in India.
"They are trying to get more people to come out and watch it by playing the event after work hours, so whether it will prove a success, we will see.
"They are very passionate about their cricket and come out in their masses to watch that, so it will be interesting to see if this attracts a lot of interest in a similar way.
"For me it was just an opportunity that came along at the right time and there will be no pressure or stress like on the tour.
"Shiv is a friend of mine, we share the same management company (International Sports Management) and he's come up with something different."
The involvement of the two-time Ryder Cup winner in India this weekend means he misses the European Tour's Joburg Open, which starts in South Africa today.
Having completed his duties in India, Howell plans to travel home to Dubai to spend a couple of weeks with his family before returning to tour action at the Tshwane Open, also in South Africa, which starts on February 28.
"It was always 50-50 whether I played at the Joburg Open anyway," said Howell.
"The first three events of the year in the Middle East were a no-brainer, but the South African tournaments are a little bit similar and most of the guys pick one of the three to play in."

On Wednesday November 23, 2011 at approximately 12:29 p.m., Officers from the San Rafael Police Department responded to Safeway, 950 Las Gallinas Avenue, regarding a possible fraud that had just occurred. According to the clerk, a female suspect attempted to make a purchase with a fraudulent credit card. When the clerk told the suspect that she thought the credit card was fraudulent the suspect grabbed the clerk, assaulted her and forcibly took the credit card from her hand.
The suspect was identified through the course of an investigation as Marcella Brown, 28 of Marin City. Officers were advised to be on the look out for Brown. On Thursday, November 24, 2011 a deputy from the Marin County Sheriff's Department located Brown driving in Sausalito. The deputy stopped Brown and detained her for San Rafael Police.
Brown was taken into custody. A search of her property revealed numerous cloned credit cards and merchandise that was purchased with the fraudulent cards. Brown was booked into the Marin County Jail for strong arm robbery, commercial burglary, fraudulent use of an access card, identity theft, and a violation of probation. Bail was set at $75,000.

mathlink example for visual c++
I have Mathematica 3.0.1.
I try to write a program in Visual C++ Version 4 and want to use some
functions of Mathematica via Mathlink. Do you know, where I can find
some example programs? The main function of my program is represented
by a dialog, where I can edit some values, press a Start-button and
simply display the return-values in some text fields. Besides I also
want to open files, chosen via an ordinary file-selection-menue in
Visual C++, with Mathematica via MathLink. What I am searching for,
are some examples, especially for Visual C++. Thank you

NOTE: This spoiler was submitted by Jeremy
Cut to over 100 years later to the present day. All the classic monsters - Frankenstein (Kevin James) and his wife Eunice (Fran Drescher), Wayne the Wolf Man (Steve Buscemi) and his wife Wanda (Molly Shannon) and their litter of kid wolves, Murray the Mummy (CeeLo Green), and Griffin the Invisible Man (David Spade), along with all other kinds of monsters - arrive at the hotel in celebration of Mavis's (Selena Gomez) 118th birthday. Dracula welcomes everyone and goes upstairs to check on her, where she is preparing to ask him if she can go out to see the world. To her surprise, he says yes, but as she leaves, he notices she's all packed to go to Hawaii. He says she can only go to the nearby village for 30 minutes, and she leaves. The other monsters come in and question Drac for his decision, but he knows what he's doing.
Drac, in bat form, follows Mavis to the village, which is empty. She comes across a shop with pretty dresses but is confronted by humans. They come out with torches and pitchforks, until we see that Drac is behind this--he is controlling the atmosphere and the humans are just zombies in costumes...which all catch fire, causing Mavis to flee. Unbeknownst to them, somebody is watching this...
She goes to her room as Drac comes back, where she admits he was right about the horrors of the human world. Drac goes downstairs to find a human entering the hotel. Thinking quickly, he traps the guy, Jonathan (Andy Samberg), in the revolving doors. He tells Drac he heard about the castle and followed the flaming zombies to the place, under the assumption that he has stumbled upon a really cool costume party. This allows Drac to put Jonathan in a Frankenstein-like disguise. However, Quasimodo the chef (Jon Lovitz) and his pet rat Esmeralda become suspicious quickly. Jonathan discovers right away that the monsters are all real. That's when he stumbles upon Mavis, and they "zing" (their eyes flash when they see each other for the first time). Drac tries to hide him from her and pulls him upstairs.
Now afraid and realizing he is in the presence of the real Dracula, Jonathan begs for mercy, but Drac informs him that he doesn't drink human blood because "you don't know where they've been." Drac tries to sneak Jonathan out through a tunnel behind a secret passageway, but ends up running into Frank, Murray, and Wayne, who are assaulting zombie versions of Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart. They're planning something for Mavis's party. Mavis comes across Jonathan again, where he says his name is Jonnystein, and that he's distantly related to Frank. Drac makes up that he got Jonny to help plan for Mavis's party. After seeing how uninteresting Drac's friends are with music, Jonathan adds his own flare to the mix, which everybody loves.
Dracula, unhappy with this, makes all the guests do boring stuff that he planned (a game of bingo, among other things). Jonathan livens it up by bringing out a scooter, and then starting a game of chicken fights in the pool. However, his make-up starts wearing off, and Drac takes him out all the way to the cemetery where he tries to send Jonathan out by hypnotizing him, but it fails due to his contact lenses. Drac leaves him, and Mavis soon appears before Jonathan to have fun.
She takes him to the roof of the hotel and asks him more about his travels around the world (he mentions it earlier). He says the world is great, still trying to play up the monster ruse. The sun begins rising, which would burn Mavis, but Jonathan shields her from it so she can witness her first sunrise. The moment is ruined when he falls through the ceiling into the sauna where Drac and his buddies are as Drac is telling the guys that Jonathan isn't good for Mavis.
Drac makes Jonathan help set up tables for the party, but after seeing how the tables act according to Drac's command, they start having fun by flying on the tables. Drac actually enjoys the moment until he notices Jonathan is missing after they crash. He sees footprints and figures that Quasimodo and his rat have Jonathan. As he looks for them, he bumps into Mavis, who not-so-subtly admits she likes Jonathan, which worries Drac. He then gets the armored guards to stop Quasimodo but he outsmarts them and plots to cook Jonathan into a pie. Drac finds them and discovers that Quasimodo knows that Jonathan is human. To keep him quiet, Drac petrifies him and keeps him frozen (with his finger in nose for good measure).
Drac takes Jonathan to a room with a coffin and a large portrait of a woman. Jonathan says he knows of this legend--the woman in the portrait fell in love with a lonely count and they lived in a castle with their baby. Unfortunately, a mysterious fire destroyed their home and killed them. Drac reveals to Jonathan that the woman was his wife Martha and that it was the humans who set fire to their home and killed her, and therefore, his aversion to humans started from there. Jonathan says he will leave, but Drac says he can stick around for the party.
The party has live party music from the monster band, and Jonathan has a bunch of fireflies light up the place and take shapes of various locations like Paris, New York, and Hawaii to surprise Mavis. She is enchanted by it and kisses Jonathan, which startles Dracula. He ends up revealing the fake village plot to Mavis as a means to protect her, which angers her. Things get worse when Quasimodo comes in (still frozen) and a fly translates his mumbling to reveal that Jonathan is a human. Quasi's rat runs the make-up off him, and the other monsters begin to panic. As this happens, Mavis says she doesn't care that he is human, but Jonathan, knowing how Drac might react, tells Mavis he won't have her because he hates monsters, breaking her heart. He leaves with regret.
Drac finds Mavis on the roof in tears after reading a present her mother left her for her 118th birthday. She admits to Drac that she and Jonathan zinged, just like he and Martha did. The present is a little storybook depicting their romance and finally telling her that she will have her own zing. Drac realizes his mistake and meets with the angry monsters in the lobby. They are mad that he kept the secret from them, but Drac tells them that he doesn't even know if humans are that dangerous anymore. He asks for their help, and so Frank, Murray, Wayne, and Griffin go off to find Jonathan.
The sun is coming up, and the guys try to shield Drac from the light. They find one of Jonathan's smelly shirts and Wayne gets one of his pups to determine that Jonathan is headed for the airport on a flight that leaves in 15 minutes. The monsters rush off but crash into an entrance leading to a real village with a monster celebration. Everybody is dressed as a vampire, werewolf, mummy, or Frankenstein monster. The crowd is blocking the path to the airport, so Frank tries to scare everyone off. However, despite acknowledging that he really is a monster, they applaud him as he roars his way to the top of a balloon. He tells the crowd that the real Dracula is among them and that he needs to find Jonathan for his daughter. The crowd happily lets Drac pass, shielding him from the sunlight.
Drac finds the airplane with Jonathan on it, but it starts to fly off. He realizes the only way to catch him is to fly after him in his bat form, despite the burns he gets from the light. He finds Jonathan but can't talk to him through the window. He flies to the front of the plane and controls the captain to send a message to Jonathan, apologizing for his actions and asking him to come back. He then has the plane turn around, to the irritation of the passengers.
Drac crashes into Mavis's room with a lot of luggage and Jonathan strapped to it. He allows the two of them to have a relationship and go off to see the world. The two of them kiss again, and they have a real party with a musical performance from all the monsters and Jonathan.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Stayed there with wife and infant for destination wedding, got a great price off a third party sure (much cheaper than the hotel website) but still got a huge room with patio directly out to the pool. I also saw the grotto bay (for a BBQ after the wedding) and would highly recommend paying a little extra to stay at rosewood. A bit pricy, but you get what you pay for...
The staff are warm and friendly and efficient. Every greeting feels genuine and warm. I love the south side and that part of the island for its beaches and the trolley is so easy to catch at hotel and gets you to great beaches and to ferry to Hamiltin. You are away from everything but can get anywhere easily. I lived in the hotel in the 80's performing in a show that use to be there and remembered as so beautiful and friendly and was so excited to return 32 years later to find that same Bermudian kindness and joy.
Service in restaurants was terrible.. For breakfast , lunch and dinner.. $28.00 for pasta with peas that they call chefs special was the size of a small appetizer.. Room was nice but old. Plumbing did not work to good.. Cater to large groups. You have to wait for everything.. Very unhappy. Been going to hotel for 20 years..
The location of the hotel was very convenient to top notch restaurants (Henry VIII, The Waterlot, Blu, Lido). Two are 1 minute away and the other two were less than 5 mins by taxi. The fact that you can rent mopeds on property was perfect. The tennis courts were $15 per hour for us as a couple to play, which was reasonable I thought. The fact that you pay for extras a la carte is annoying. The cost of drinks at "The Dock" at The Waterlot, effectively an on property establishment and their private beach was totally annoying. Considering the beach next door was half the cost sort of indicates to me they could easily charge 20% less and still make a killing.
Everyone is so nice and helpful. The place is clean and beautiful. The food is wonderful.
This is one of the nicer full service hotels on the island with most immenties. But It sorely needs an update, it's very dated and generally dirty. They aren't quite as on point service-wise as they should be. But with all that said, for the price it's the best value you're probably going to get. I'm sure once they do remodel, it will be unaffrodable.
The location was beautiful It was ridiculously expensive...everything was an extra. As a couple , we spent as much on food as we did on the room. ( and we didn't eat breakfast). They even charged for the use of old snorkeling equipment.
I loved everything about this hotel, the staff was so kind and friendly. My boyfriend proposed to me here. It was pricey but you get what you pay for.
The hotel is very nicely located on the island of Bermuda. You are a short taxi trip away from the Naval Dockyard and the hotel offers a free ferry shuttle to Hamilton. Beaches are incredible and the restaurants are very good (Bocci had the best food and Ocean Ridge had amazing beach/ocean views). Shuttles to various parts of the hotel grounds were clean and readily available. My husband and I were there on our honeymoon and decided to get massages one day. We can both honestly say that the massages weren't that good for the price you pay. My massage therapist was very rushed in her movements and I never felt really relaxed. Spa facilities were very clean and quite impressive.
Beautiful hotel and grounds. Delicious food. Very friendly and helpful staff.
We loved the scenic aspect, beautiful views. I absolutely loved being able to come out and sit in the lawn chairs and see Bermuda. We really liked how central it was to everything. We also loved the caves and plan to come back when it's warmer so we can swim in them! Wish we were told more about the all inclusive aspect of the resort. Had no idea until our last day there when we saw a sign telling us about it. Financially, it's not smart to stay there unless you are apart of the all inclusive package.
The staff were friendly and eager to see we enjoyed ourselves. The hotel beach on the bay is convenient, nice, and uncrowded. We used the bus pass to explore the island, and found people very helpful, and interested in providing a great tourist experience. The island people clearly want to earn our tourist business. Give them a try, they earned it.
Everything. Staff, rooms, beach, location, price and view Beach bar closes too early.
the location, the littke jakussi, so quiet, the way it is all situated, the view from the room
The staff was very friendly My room was horrible. It didn't seem clean, needed painting, the shower was awful, water got all over
Less than 5 minutes from the airport. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Room large, clean and comfortable with an excellent view of the bay. Food in restaurants were good. Not great but good enough. Bus stop a short walk down the drive. Scooter rental just outside the grounds. Bus passes gained access to all buses and ferries which will get one to any part of the islands easily. Bathroom was small. Grounds were well removed from Hamilton, the Dockyards and elsewhere. One needed to take 20 minute bus ride or the more expensive taxi to get anywhere.
Food was good. Wish they had more Caribbean food. Menus are more Americanized This time of year the high is like 68-70 so it got very cold some days and jacuzzi wasn't working
The room was confrontable and the staff were so nice. The quality of the food was mediocre for the price I paid.
proximity to beach nice cove. Lots to rent at dive shop boat, kayaks, snorkel gear, etc. Staff except for pool bar staff were very friendly. Food is lousy. Bar service at pool terrible waited 26 minutes for a drink at 2PM. Outdated...grounds dirty. outdoor seating DIRTY. Gave me wrong room key, walked in on another couple embarrassing. caves littered with garbage, towels, napkins, straws, empty beer bottles. Rooms outdated.
The pool was enjoyable as were the natural cave attractions Food was mediocre, no room service, long walk from room to other ammenities, room was outdated, advertised free wifi but it never worked, no ice near room
We enjoyed the beautiful view and the waterfront location. Also, we were able to walk to the Crystal Caves, The Swizzle Inn and Baileys Ice Cream. Bus stop at entrance enabled us to traverse Bermuda with ease by bus and ferry. We did not take the all inclusive food plan because we were out all day and wanted to try different dining experiences. That worked out well.
Hi quality/ friendly/ green/ short taxi ride from airport/ beuatiful
The staff were very friendly, helpful, and courteous. The hotel is very convenient for walking to town/shops and to the ferry terminal. The food at the new Marcus Samuelson restaurant was very good. The hotel was under renovations and this was not made apparent when booking the hotel. The construction work started quite early every day - including Sunday. Overall, the hotel is very nice but not as luxurious as expected for the price.
Location is perfect. New pool awesome The first room I was given was looking out at employee parking lot when my itinerary stated room was next to new pool seems to always happen when you book through travel sites
Marcus restaurant, Pool. Small rooms. Expensive for what they offer. Not great service. Ran out of towels and chairs at the beach of their sister property.
The service was really amazing, the staff was extremely knowledgeable and very nice and accommodating.
hotel staff is great! very helpful. grounds are beautiful rooms are nice good location beach is great food is good, but over priced some restaurant staff could be improved. manners and attention to detail go along way in my opinion
Views and staff. Not children friendly, very hilly and nothing for them to do. Expensive, the prices are close to very upscale NY restaurant.
The location is breathtaking. The beach is beautiful and private. The staff is very friendly and they make you feel at home. The spa is beautiful and the service was wonderful. Looking forward to our next visit.
Good location, very friendly and helpful staff. Great rooms and on site restaurants. Great view of Downtown. I wish the ferry went more often and a couple of times on Sunday. The fitness center machines need to be replaced, but I guess who comes to Bermuda to workout.
Nice green spaces, lovely pool area and beautiful beach view. No room service after hours. Only one restaurant option which was limited and the room had no iron.
Staff generally friendly; Manager not accommodating * Our room was unavailable on arrival even though we were a day late because of a Hurricane ... paid for the night we were not in the room and it was unavailable because the manager let others sleep in our room that night ... when I suggested that he should make some financial accommodation, the Manager was dismissive. * While their website pictures a beach, there was no beach in front of this property (rocks) * Rooms are outdated and show wear; sheets didn't fit; no bottled water provided; rooms too perfumed * When cleaning up the staff leave piles of garbage outside the rooms ... very unpleasant * Food was well below the quality of the Elbow Beach Resort ... salad was even served with a dead cockroach
on Elbow beach Outdated look , could have more emenities
Coco Reef is an amazing place to stay. The rooms and views are exquisite, the staff is attentive and helpful, and the grounds and beaches are lovely. It is conveniently located 3 miles from Hamilton for nightlife, etc., and it's but a short ride (by scooter, etc.) from Horseshoe Bay Beach and other picturesque coves. In addition, the owner of the hotel can be found at the hotel, and takes great pride in his property. He also enjoys directing photo shoots of his guests :D I recommend this resort to anyone who wants the ultimate Bermuda experience.
If you are looking for a quiet upscale place to stay in Bermuda you must consider Rosedon. It's a hidden oasis right in Hamilton. Easy walking to shops and restaurants. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful, the rooms and grounds very clean. The gardens are beautiful. We would definitely return. Was not a concern for us, but no restaurant or bar on premises. They do provide an honor bar in the main building though and plenty of places within walking distance.
Close to airport Filthy. Garbage had not been emptied. There were crumbs on the floor. And when we moved the couch to watch TV the floor was filthy. No batteries in the either of the remote control in the living room. shower provided just more than a trickle of water. Cab driver warned me to lock all doors when we go out. Such a waste. We were staying only one night prior to our flight home. Otherwise we would have moved hotels.
The facility was fantastic (one bedroom apt with king sized bed) and in every room we had a breath-taking ocean side view! Staff was hands off, but very helpful when we needed something. We took a dip in the pool every morning and the area was very quiet and secluded. Right next to a bus stop as well! We cannot wait to come back! This is not a "dislike," but more of a suggestion. The hotel felt more like a timeshare, which is what we wanted. We had a full kitchen to cook food and received clean towels daily- otherwise it was very independent.

Living outside of the city, I have the great opportunity to do my environmental duties every Saturday morning. I load the previous week's accumulation of garbage that my wife and daughter have deposited in the trashcans and take them to the disposal facility.
I'm not yet at the point where I have to wear the big white suit with its own oxygen supply, but that day may be drawing close.
Do you ever wonder what is in all of those bags that people throw away? Also, the garbage bags you buy at the grocery store must be made with some type of fibrous materials, or they couldn't hold the huge amounts of garbage we put into them. And if you're like me, you challenge yourself to see how much garbage you can stuff in them until they stretch so paper-thin, that they reach their breaking point.
Anyway, on the way to the facility, I got a phone call from a contractor-friend who had been reading some material on concrete roofs. He was all excited about the longevity of the materials, and the fact that he may never have to re-roof his house again.
The longest part of the conversation was about how his roofing contractor was having problems disposing of the materials that had been replaced. Then he asked, what do you do with the leftover materials from your trucks?
Of course, I had to give him the spiel about reclaimers, settling ponds, and the various other methods of disposing the spent concrete so we can do as much as possible to protect the environment.
The manager of the disposal facility was more than eager to talk when I got there. He pretty much asked me the same question. After a 20-minute conversation with him, I was glad to see the neighbors pulling into the line behind me. That way, I could leave without being rude.
Hanging with home builders
I took the long way home and drove through a couple of subdivisions that were just in the beginning phases. I'm lucky to be living in an area where home builders are still pretty busy. Some of the contractors were burning the excess materials, and others, such as the roofing contractors, were loading and getting ready to haul their trash away. At the end of the subdivision was a washout pit for concrete trucks.
The superintendent for the home builder spotted me and stopped for a little conversation. We'd been making deliveries to this area and he and I became pretty good friends. Not only did he like our service and product, he also rode motorcycles on the weekends, so we had something else in common.
When he started the project, we had talked about containment areas, and the impact and potential cleanup that would have to follow the last phase. We both agreed that it would be more economical for all parties involved to do it this way.
Making my way home, I thought of the many ways we impact the environment with our product. Reclaimers and washout pits are a cost of doing business we do not mind being saddled with. It comes with the territory.
When I got home, I met my wife just outside the garage. She had two more bags that I had forgotten. I told her that I had just released the crane that I had used to load the bags I had just hauled away and that it would just have to wait until after the ballgame was over.
Of course, you know the rest of the story. I made another trip. The things I do to help save the environment.

Reno Facility Spared Cutbacks in Second Nevada Victory
Washington, D.C. – Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV), the Democratic Leader, applauded a decision today to protect operations at the Nevada Air National Guard base in Reno. A special commission today recommended against making any cuts at the base.
"This is such good news for Nevada," said Reid. "Our exemplary military bases obviously impressed the commissioners. For the second time, they agreed to keep our facilities operating at full strength. We won't face painful cuts at either the Reno Air National Guard base or at the Hawthorne Army Depot. This is a real testament to the quality of Nevada's military installations and personnel."
Earlier this year, the Department of Defense had recommended moving all C-130 aircraft from the Reno base to Little Rock, Arkansas. The Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission is an independent, bipartisan commission created to study the Department of Defense recommendations further. After months of consideration, they reversed the original finding today and recommended keeping the C-130's in Reno.
"The C-130's are vital for Nevada's safety," said Reid. "In addition to their military importance, we rely on them for Homeland Security operations. We need them for everything from fighting wildfires to preparing for potential natural disasters. I'm very pleased the commissioners understood their value to our state,"
The Pentagon recommended dozens of closures or cuts at bases around America, as part of a major realignment of the country's military. Among the recommendations were the removal of the C-130's from Reno and the closing the Hawthorne Army Depot. Earlier this week the commission recommended keeping Hawthorne open.
Reid had worked for months to make sure the commissioners understood the importance of the two Nevada military installations. He requested and helped arrange a hearing before the BRAC Comission in Clovis, New Mexico in June, and he asked Commissioner Philip Coyle to visit Nevada's bases personally. In late July, just before then end of the BRAC Commission's fact-finding period, he asked BRAC Chairman Anthony J. Principi to visit Nevada as well, which gave two of the commissioners a first-hand look at state's facilities.
"I'm grateful to all the commissioners for their hard work and their impartial decisions," said Reid. "I'm especially impressed by my friend Jim Bilbray, our former Congressman from Nevada. I appointed him to the commission, and he did an excellent job."
The Commission will send its final recommendations to the President, who must approve the BRAC Commission's report. The President will then send the report to Congress, which must also approve the report within 45 days.

text: BALTIMORE ( Stockpickr) -- Details on GM's IPO are the day's big market news, attracting attention from major financial outlets and from retail investors eager to get in on an offering of the Detroit auto giant's shares. On Thursday, shares of GM will begin trading again on the NYSE and TSX in one of the highest-profile IPOs of the year.It's also one of the most popular. Estimates suggest that GM's share offering is 8 times oversubscribed and that the company is offering 30% more shares as a result. >>Also: Car Stocks That Could Surge Ahead of GM IPO That bullish anticipation could be a good thing for the market overall, given the S&P 500's current positioning right above key support levels. Thursday could help spark the next leg of this sentiment rally. For that reason, it makes sense to look at three technical setups that could benefit from increased market action. Technical analysis is a way for investors to quantify qualitative factors, such as investor psychology, based on a stock's chart patterns and trends. Once the domain of cloistered trading teams on Wall Street, technicals can help top traders make consistently profitable trades and can aid fundamental investors in better planning their stock execution. >>Also: 3 Stocks Setting Up for a Breakout Here's a look at this week's potential trades.
