The beds were great! Somewhere in my booking it had "airport" in the name...but we were a relative long way from the airport! Also our room had a smokey smell to it...
Renovated rooms are very comfortable and stylish. Deluxe rooms have a patio and stall shower. Staff throughout the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Buffet breakfast is extensive and well priced. Public areas have been beautifully redone. Did not dislike anything
The housekeeping staff and maintenance were excellent! Very courteous and friendly The pool was NOT HEATED as advertised! ! Thr Rixton Pub was the WORST food and service ever! Very overpriced and orders were all wro g and food tasted horrible. No one ate their food. 100$ non refu fable dog fre
Great location, close to the highway and a ton of restaurants. When we got to our room the temperature was 79* and kept climbing, lowering the setting did not help. We left for dinner, called front desk and they said someone would be up shortly to look. 2 hours later, we returned to the room and the temp was now 80* and nobody had been there. It took a second call, someone came up, fixed it, and then an additional hour before the room was comfortable to sleep in...
Bed. Linens. Pool. Exercise room I would rather have had a non handicapped room so that I could have used the tub
The rooms were nice. The area had many restaurants within walking distance. Close to the freeway and easy to get to. None.
Reserved two queens, no one informed us that there were none left on arrival.
Staff was helpful and very welcoming. Nice upgrade next to the pool for $10.
Coffee maker and fridge in the room, more like a complete suite! Bed was super comfortable. Slept like a baby!
Very friendly staff. Great location. Great value. Definitely will stay here again
It did not feel welcoming
Everyone from the two gentleman at the front desk to the woman who cared for us in the 'pub' was extremely pleasant. They obviously value customer service a lot. The only nit-picky thing I can even think of to put as 'bad' would be that the doors and fixtures for the door seem older and don't seem like the most secure thing.
Pool area, lobby. Parking was horrible and not convenient in the area we were in
beauriful view from the highest point on the property. Rooms are a bit stale and in need of renovation. Sink made weird noises that woke us up. Staff is mediocre at front desk.
Nice room nice pools I stayed on a Monday until Wednesday and it wasn't very busy at all. I was put in the farthest room from the main pool so it wasn't walking distance, did receive shuttle service but would of been nicer to be closer.
Based upon the first impression of the front desk service, along with the room, I was expecting a perfectly fine stay. Especially, considering, the stay was only for one night. The room was spotless, and super cute! (We got one with a jacuzzi, which is definitely a bonus of this hotel.) there was even a little note from the maid, ensuring we knew it had been cleaned 100%, for our satisfaction. That being said, I was required to call a 1-800 line, for room service? I was directed to an obscure representative, who was way beyond unprofessional, who then, transferred me to the kitchen of, what I found out later, was Streets of New York. Sure, but then why is it called OrderInn, on the room service menu? I just want to know where the food I'm paying stupid amounts of money for, is coming from. Along with several, basic food items, such as, plain old, Garlic bread, that they had, extensively, labeled as "Passion bread", and was being way overcharged for.
Place is old needs updates Everything
My girlfriend and I stayed here for the fourth of July weekend. I will never stay here again ever. The room was dated. The room looked like a road side motel. The pictures and smoke dectors were falling off the wall. The refrigerator door had a hole like some one kicked it. I went to four different ice machines four different times and not one of them worked. I had to drive to the store it was very inconvenient. For the amount we paid for each nigh it was not worth it. We didn't even go to the water park portion of the resort because we were so disappointed with our room
Close to family. The resort is tired and it shows.
Lounge view awesome went for the sunset and ended up going back for night cap and view of Phoenix at night from the mountain every night. Plenty to do golf, great hiking trails, tennis and great pool area. Since you are literally on top of a mountain restaurants off property are not walk to but a quick 10 minute cab or car ride.
Beautiful location and amenities. We expected great services and top-notch amenities, but the staff and our room were just mediocre. First, we had to wait for 10 minutes to sign in. The check-in agent was tied up with a time-consuming transaction but didn't even bother to apologise for the wait, much less attempt to summon a colleague to help us. Bad form. Next, we paid for queen-sized beds, but our room was outfitted with full-size beds. Wah wah. It was late and we weren't in the mood for making a fuss, but it was just...shabby. Nothing horrible, just not good.
Resort was pretty and acommodations acceptable for price. Narrow roadways and endless views of cars. I was unable to find a way to navigate through the resort without walking through the parking lots. Only room service ordered was a caesar salad with a total cost of over $20. Lettuce had just been washed, but not dried so it was watery with cold cut type chicken placed on top. Very poor especially for a Hilton.
as we frequent several valley hotels, we especially loved the adult pool area.................... our room had absolutely no view front or back
There was no microwave and had to pay for a fridge
The beds were very nice and comfortable. The staff was very helpful and quick to respond to any question or request. They helped me out when the computer printer was not working by allowing me to email my document to them so they could print it in the hotel office. The room needed a thorough cleaning, more than the daily clean by housekeeping. The closet doors were grungy and the hair dryer was covered in dust. One of the outlets in the bathroom didn't work and the light in the entry hall was dim. There are no food vending machines, so after the little cafe downstairs is closed, your only option is room service. When we were there, the soda vending machines would not accept bills. I needed to print out something from my computer, but their network printer did not work.
I can't believe what we paid this is so close to a five star on a limited budget which most of us have run into these past few years! Hats off to the Crescent..............Amazing service and friendly too! no
Friendly staff, very nice pool, very clean. Hotel room could use an update and window view of a tree wasn't much fun.
beds bathrooms
i loved the room and as an adult, very much enjoyed the water slide. ;) it was hard to find hrs of operations for.... the pool, waterslide, and other services the hotel provided.
The rooms were clean and comfortable! The staff was friendly :)
I was there only briefly for a longer trip to Northern Arizona, but it was a very attractive hotel with a number of amenities. I'll be staying here again with my family when I return to the area.
Superb value for money with excellent who couldn't do enough for us to make sure we were comfortable. We had a poolside room on a very hot summer evening, so couldn't have asked for more. Pity more hotels don't offer this sort of service, with these facilities, at the price we paid.
The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. I had a problem with the TV and they quickly came to my room to check it. They offered me to change room as the problem couldn't be solved immediately.
Stay was too brief, and the hotel was basically just a bedroom. Yes, they told me my rate did not include breakfast, but my reservation form from you (which I unfortunately checked later) said that I was due breakfast!
The bed was extremely comfortable The hotel was old.. the hallways were dirty with dirty sofas in the vending/ice areas. but the rooms were comfy and clean. Weird I know!
breakfast was good Had problems checking into the hotel. First the electronic key did not work. Then the room the gave me had another guest in the room. I opened the door to find undergarments on the bed. Also the lobby smelled like chlorine due to being open to the pool area.
The place was clean, the food was decent, there was free coffee in the lobby in the morning. It had free HBO. The lobby area and the courtyard both felt pretty dated and run down. The location is pretty terrible as far as restaurants nearby.
It is a very nice Hotel, clean and comfortable, besides the price was reasonable. I'll stay there every time that I visit Phoenix.
Excellent coffee in the room very comfortable bed clean and quiet great air conditioning complimentary bottles of water were a nice touch free internet good choice of cable tv channels and nice hd tv It would have been nice if there was a snack vending machine on the floor
Great place to flop. Staff was wonderful. Free wi-fi was a god send as I'm in the middle of a legal battle. Free parking a plus. Not sure if Sheraton has changed beds in the last year, but those are not the familiar sweet sleepers I remember. Not very comfy.
noise of the freway olso noise air conditioner not a pleasnt
The breakfast was delicious, hot and fresh. The room was mice on first night. Housekeeping brought us clean towels only and did not Service our room for two days out of our four day stay. When the housekeepers did clean our room, it was very sloppy cleaning. Staff made me uncomfortable, they were always watching us....i was hoping it was not a black thing.
Staff was supper helpful and attentive. Breakfast bar, pure heaven!!! Our room squeaky clean! satisfied 100% Thank you!!
We had a nice stay at the Hyatt. Customer service was superb and the breakfast was really good. Our room was on the freeway side of the property so it was really loud. Next time down to Phoenix we would request a room on the opposite side of the hotel.
Nothing. I was surprised at how dirty the rooms were. Stains (that looked like dried blood boogers) were all over the curtains and night light next to the bed. We had a room on the highway side of the hotel, and it was incredibly loud. Like, surprisingly loud. Not a pleasant nights sleep.
I found a couple of hairs on bath tub ....
Room was clean. Small, but neat. Room service was a nice option. Nice small gym. Friendly staff. Cleaning lady was very courteous and friendly. Great area. The shower head wasnt working properly, which resulted in low water pressure in the shower.
We needed last minute accommodations so as a business traveler, we chose a brand I frequently use. Our room was surface clean only and barely...dirty mirrors and drawer pulls caked with something spilled or built up from repeated neglect. Mattress was long overdue for change. No in room movies available because servers were down and never came up all day or evening. Staff was friendly and can't blame desk team but disappointing reflection on the brand ovreal and I am a Hyatt passport member.
I loved our room, booked through Kayak and got an amazing deal on the King suite which included office area, living room area, fridge, microwave, beautiful room with a view. My boyfriend and I are poor college kids who just wanted a lovely inexpensive get-away and the room was so beautiful for such a good price. Their free breakfast was also really good. Lots of healthy options! Free tea and coffee all day. Free wi-fi. Loved it. The pool was a bit small, but we went around 10 and no one else was using it, so it was a lot of fun. We were looking for fine dining or nearby sushi places to make a special evening for ourselves and asked the concierge for good local places. She handed me a list that included Dennys and Outback Steakhouse, mostly international chains. I asked if she had any more specific suggestions and she told us to just drive down the road. I was really disappointed that they didn't have any more helpful suggestions, but we found a delicious sushi spot through the magic of Google anyway.
We loved the friendly staff! We arrived after 11:40pm and was greeted by a wonderful lady at the front desk. The breakfast was amazing, hot tea, coffee and ice water was served 24 hours. Warm cookies on the counter after dinner, really hit the spot. When we needed anything, the staff responded. Hotel was clean and very well kept. Highly recommend! I wouldn't change a thing!
Decent breakfast in a room to small for people to eat. Noisy till past midnight. Door to hotel room obviously forced at one time and still damaged. Bed harder then floor. Could hear everything going on outside of room and hotel. Moved out the next day and got a room cheaper and better at another hotel. Wish i could have seen the future to know not to stay here.
The room was spacious, clean and compfortable. The comp breakfast buffet was verry good and the dining area was awesome Leaving
The suite style rooms had full kitchenettes (including full sized dishwasher) and sitting areas separate from the bedroom. It made staying there with an infant far more convenient than it would have been otherwise. It was awfully close to the freeway, but I suppose that helped with transportation issues when we were passing through town. The road noise was minimal, though, and the room had great black-out curtains.
Ay in this hotel again. I know that booking .com had information and said that I had to pay in advance which I did but they also took another 35 dollars a day which ididn't think that this was right since I paid in advance. So I was not happy with this.
Convenient to my friend's home. When I opened the door to my room, there was an extremely strong cigarette door. Knowing that this was a non-smoking hotel with a stiff fine for smoking, I immediately called the front desk to report the issue. The young girl at the front desk seemed unconcerned. I did not request another room as I was too tired and in pain. My friend commented the next day that I smelled like cigarette smoke. I just wish the person at the desk had offered something to clear the air and stench.
Very nice, and clean hotel. Great value for your money.
It was clean What I didn't like was I was quoted the wrong price online so it was more expensive and the room I reserved was supposed to have two queen beds but ended up have to small full sized beds. Plus you could here everything going on outside and from other rooms because the walls are to thin. Plus the bathroom door was hard to open and close.
The staff went out of their way to confirm onward bookings for a further six hotels (Booking . com had slipped) Superbly clean and has a dining room. Breakfast was much more than the advertised continental and was more of a full English. Brilliant.
Nice clean room Internet didn't work, one staff member was very rude
The room was very nice, the description of the room was very accurate I checked out day early and they charged me half day rate
When we arrived they did not have any rooms of the standard we had reserved. They upgraded us to a suite before we had chance to speak!
The room was perfect and we were very satisfied with room service and movie choices.
The cleanliness and update of the rooms was great, but bandaid-like approac. The ease of the hotel to be found from the freeway was good. The band-aid approach to updating an older hotel. There were items that were overlooked that could of have been taken care of. The hotel was in a rough neighborhood, liquor store on corner, some bums roaming streets. Not a place for a single woman traveler to venture out and explore. Freeway traffic noise could be heard clearly with single pane windows. The AC did not have temp to adjust, so had to unplug from wall when chilly in room. Had thin window treatments that could be easily seen through, no blackout curtains ( room 241 ).
Location It smelt like smoke and there was some sort of party going they had beer and pizza. No I did not call the front because I was alone and did not want to deal with the consequences. They were right outside my door until 3:00 a.m.
The room decor tv and beds were good The free breakfast was ok, continental dirty outside Didn't seem like room was cleaned very well Staff at front desk was nice Keys kept deactivating and wouldn't work had to keep getting new ones Maid seemed bothered that we wanted our sheets changed and beds made on our second day there
I checked in late at night after a long shift at work. Front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. Landscaping was well maintained, but the outdoor stairwell to get to my room was dirty with several pieces of used gum stuck to the steps. My room was clean at first glance, but there was dried urine behind the toilet and some hair. The toilet itself was extra small and felt like it was built for a 5 year old. Honestly, I was so exhausted that I didn't even bother to complain. Bed and pillows were comfortable. The shower had poor water pressure but was plenty warm. Breakfast in the morning was generally unhealthy (breads, muffins, waffles) but they did have some fresh fruit and hard boiled eggs which was nice. Overall I probably wouldn't stay at this particular hotel again.
Too close to the road. Outdated old building street noise clearly audible inside the room. When I changed my reservation after 2 days stray with 24 hours notice I was still charged by Expedia for the full stay. All in all I would not recommend this hotel unless you want an overpriced 1 or 2 star hotel. Additionally. Based on this experience I will not use Expedia or kayak again
very convient and excellent location.
good value, close to I-17, full kitchen, comfy bed, clean pool without too much chlorine. air conditioning kind of noisy.
The price was fantastic. I would definitely recomend this to someone else.
staff friendly no lotion in room
OK, Location optimal for me, Internet commection fine
Everything was very nice. Staff incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Kevin. Comfortable room and great bed. The only issue was that it was difficult to regulate the room temperature. The fan on the HVAC was noisy .
Convenient and well located, good pool and gym, facilities serve well
Super friendly staff and very clean facility
I really like the environment and the atmosphere. Not enough shade around the pool in the heat of the day.
This guest did not leave comments about this hotel.
staff, comfort, breakfast, amenities
It's a little farther from the highway than most- and therefore quieter. The grounds are quite nice and have immediate access to an urban trail system adjacent a canal and a nearby park. Staff were quite friendly. Good, hot breakfast. Clean all around. Only quibble is the location of the TV on a small table, with sharp edges. This would be easy to bang into in the middle of the night.
We were very pleased with this hotel. It was more than we expected it to be. The staff were friendly, the room was clean, breakfast was abundant, and parking was easy. Nothing.
I was somewhat comfortable there, but something is lacking in the comfort level. The hotel needs to be remodeled. It is adequat for an emergency or quick unplanned trip. But if I were traveling for a vacation or pleasure, I would have chosen another hotel.
I would stay at this hotel again. I did not try the breakfast but I was very pleased with the cleanness of the hotel, the service and the quietness. The only negative experience was the keycard to get into the building would not work. Had to get it exchanged 3 times, and it was not working still. We had to get in through another door that was on the other side of the building. Other than that, our stay was a pleasant experience that we would repeat.
That staff was sincerely incredible! Everyone made you feel as though you belong. I would stay there again! Nothing. I genuinely lived it there.
Stayed there for 5 nights and found every member of the staff to be very friendly and polite. The room was very nice and the kitchen was equipped with anything you needed. It was easy to get in and out of on frontage road. Would stay there again.
Room was clean and very nice with all the amenities! The kitchenette feature was outstanding! Location was not all that great, but very convenient regarding the freeway and the side of town I needed. The public spaces were few and small, but not there for that.
Nice and clean rooms. Great location as it is near many restaurants and close to the freeway. No traffic noise at all. Breakfast was okay but pretty much the same every day. It needs to be changed for those of us who stay in hotels for a week stretch.
The room size. Common areas smell of ??
The staff was very nice. We stayed for six nights and don't have a single complaint. The rooms were nice especially for the nightly price but the beds were not the plush comfortable ones- but it was not uncomfortable either. The pool was nice for kids to splash around in but not a laying out type of pool as it is beside the parking lot.
It was nice to have cooking amentities The sheets were dirty, actually had blood on them, was told they had no clean towels available no wash cloths either, was a non smoking room, yet everything reaked of cigarettes smoke!!!
Close to freeways The entire staff was in a daze at all times (maybe drugs?). Addicts are plentiful in the area, including in the parking lot. The hotel is next to a trailer park. Carpet tacks pushing through the rug. Dangerous!!!. Key cards had to be reset almost every time I left the room. 40 bucks a night---you get what you pay for. Stay elsewhere or sleep in your car
The TV The room was not cleaned thoroughly. Found someone else's personal belongings under the bed.
Nothing, everything is horrible. Everything sucks about this place, smelly rooms, noisy fridge, gross, cockroaches, old, druggie place, bad customer service one person attending can't get a hold of them.
Wifi & TV channels The smell, unprofessionalness, lack of cleanliness, everything
Not much First room she gave me was full of empty boxes and air conditioners, second room had dirty rags on the floor and stunk. The lobby looks so nice compared to the dumpy room.
Nothing The non smoking room reeked of smoke, it took 45 mins just to check in when they were supposedly checking to see if there were any "non smoking room s". While I sat there waiting to check in, several ppl came in to change ruins that's smelled of smoke and to get new rooms or change out key cards that didn't work. It was just honestly horrible, wouldn't recommend to anyone
Leaving Everything else - poor condition property that is not operated as overnite stay facility. Appears to have many permanent residents having late night activities on site.
Staff N/A
It was a nonsmoking room that smelled like smoke. The towels were stained. The room should be repainted.
Our was booked right next to a pimp. He had women come to his door all night long. We got little rest. The Motel was very restless. One electrical plug in for one of the lamps was broken. It worked intermittently. We would never stay there again.
room was OK was only there to sleep and shower neighborhood was bit scary would not stay there again for that reason only other then that was good
The a/c worked great. And the cable tv was nice. Well where do i start....they advertise the wrong price of the room on their invite sign...way overpriced, people hanging out wondering around. Random. Almost everyperson i walked by asked me for drugs or let me know they have them for sale. Slept good, woke up to eat breakfast they have set out. NO MILK! ASKED FOR MORE THEY SAID NO. Wouldnt stay agian.
Good location to get around Phoenix. Friendly staff in the front office. Breakfast was good. Beds not very comfortable. Room carpets somewhat dirty.
The location was what I wanted. The room seemed, clean but the smell was terrible.
The staff were friendly was told free breakfast however they only make one batch of waffle mix and told us they always run out. we werent able to eat any o n alll the days we were there. also one day a customer said he had the last waffle but there was No syrup they were out. We got a NON smoking room and it reaked of smoke and the smoke came through the bathrooo from somewhere else, the bathtub had peeling hole in it and cracks, it was very dirty walls, doors tub. We asked for extra blankets and they ONLY could find one they told us. We asked for the bottom floor and were given one upstairs with me having scoliosis and I told them and still they didn't accomodate that. the carpets can be cleaned were old with stains. Only 2 towels were given, the toilette had issues and even backed up they came and plunged it and used a snake on it. and then left with yucky water dripping on the floor and toilette, I had to clean that as well. We asked for a room with 2 beds and were only given a room with one bed, but the kids slept on the floor.
The guy up front was cordial with us and was willing to refund the hotel. Room was supposed to be non smoking. A family of chain smokers must have lived there previously. This place isn't really rented by night. It was very apparent that people LIVE there and were not neighborly people that you make small talk with let alone make eye contact with. As we decided to get the H out of there, some guy is yelling across the way to another neighbor that he caught the guy who stole his bike and got what was coming... Unless you're the type of person to rent rooms by the hour, don't go! Choose life instead and pay an extra $20...
Staff was courteous No WiFi in rooms not by office. Beds terrible. No running water. TV was old, with static instead of quality pucture. No actual breakfast- out of juice, milk. No rolls, etc. At the sales price of $34 we overpaid!
Value for money.
Nothing. That it was hot and my A/C was not working properly, and nothing was done. The front staff was a joke.
For the price, its pretty decent. The breakfast is not worth it at all. The people staying there are homeless people in temporary situations and females of questionable occupations, but there doesn't to seems to be anymore dangerous crime but I wouldn't take kids here.
Not much Old broken furniture, AC broken. Scary neighborhood
I was helped to a very voluntary extent and was served incredible customer service by Christopher when I got my booking date incorrect. There were a few insects and ripped up furniture.
The cleaning person always did a great job of cleaning. Bathroom needs updating, leak water making it unsafe for the Elderly. Sink was always clogging up, bathroom tissue at times not filled, i had to use my own. TV stations suck!
We read the amenities on your site and they were way off We asked to be by a casino the closes one 35 mins away Fresh pancake breakfast was out of some bag pancake machine looked nasty and the area surrounding the hotel was nerve racking to be in i would not recomend this place again and kayak should do more research on the places they try to sell !
Shower fixture not attached to wall, hanging down. Grout in wall tile is mildewed. Poor repair evident. Cleanliness lacking. I decided to NOT shower.
We stayed at the Inn for a week. Staff was friendly and informative. Nice pool although the weather was a little too cool to jump in. We wanted a safe and comfortable place to sleep and that is what we had. We would stay there again. It has been about 8 year since we had been in Phoenix and sadly, the MetroCenter area seems to be a bit run down. More homeless than I had remembered and I'm sorry to see the condition of the area deteriorating. Not the hotel's fault but location could scare some people off.
Price They offer wifi with a charge but it never worked and their business center was out of service
I liked the location. There were many businesses and restaurants very close by.
Free soap? Nothing worked. The fridge didn't work, the location was terrible, the trash was run at 4 AM right outside my bedroom, my keycard kept getting erased so I'd have to wait in the long lines just to get back into my room. How they handled room payments (I rented the room ahead of time, but they didn't take the money until I stayed.) I'm lucky I rented online through a travel website; I would have been very upset had I paid the $100+ they were charging. It certainly wasn't even close to worth $100 a night.
The room was n ice and clean, and the location was very convenient. Plenty of restaurants nearby and easy to get to from the freeway.
The cute black girl at the front desk. It took an hour to get internet after paying $7 for it.

Published: November 12, 2009 at 11:23 AMI like where she writes: "And, with Disney theme parks and resorts expanding into Shanghai, etc, this is an area where Staggs could make a name for himself."
Being a Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the largest multi-national media and entertainment company on the planet does not constitute making a name for yourself?
Ms. Finke has some very high standards.
Published: November 12, 2009 at 11:27 AMFWIW, here's the New Yorker's recent piece on Nikki Finke, for those of you unfamiliar with her work.
Published: November 12, 2009 at 1:11 PMWhat I'm getting from most of the Disney boards is that things are extremely unlikely to get any better under Staggs and may likely get worse. Really, at this point it's quite hard to tell, as Staggs doesn't really have much track record on the creative side of Disney, let alone the Theme Park side. But as with having any Financial executive as Chair of Parks and Resorts, you can expect profit to reign supreme, and budgetary cutbacks to be the norm. That's not to say we won't get any new projects or that the current slate will be adversely affected, simply that the scale of future attractions may not be as grand. The park that will feel this the most is without question Shanghai, as that is the park whose budget is not yet set in stone. When that park opens in 5 years, it will have Staggs' full input on its design and cost.
So in conclusion, Rasulo was not a good chair at all. Staggs is unlikely to be any better as he comes from the same cost-cutting background as Jay, but there could possibly be some improvement if he is able to look at the parks as more than a resource and see how they're suffering from the misconduct of the executives that lead them. So likely the end results won't change particularly much, though there is potential for it to shift either way.

I respond: I'm sorry but "without question?" I think there are a bunch of questions generated by that claim. First there is the assumption of the partnership arrangements related to the SDL project. Disney's parks in Hong Kong, Paris and Tokyo are not solely financed by Disney.
Second, I'm not certain what you mean when you assert Mr. Staggs will have "full input" on its design. Perhaps you could elaborate.
Finally, as you note, SDL will not open for several years (you posted five). The economic environment and Disney's financial standing will likely change over that period of time. To make assumptions about the company's decisions and the power and standing of this one executive five years into the future, seems to be a bit of a stretch.
Published: November 12, 2009 at 3:05 PMBTW -- Disney's 4th Quarter numbers are out. Theme parks reported a 17% drop in profit on 4% lower revenue. http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20091112-717719.html
Published: November 12, 2009 at 4:53 PMI think it is very reasonable to suggest that Shanghai Disneyland will certainly be affected by this change in management. As for whether or not it is a change for the better or worse remains to be seen. You are correct in that the international parks are not solely financed by Disney. (Or in Tokyo's case financed by Disney at all). But my reasoning for this, is that from what I've heard, the budgets for the announced expansions state side are set in stone. I believe that from what I've read there is a lump sum of cash for both the Fantasyland Expansion and the DCA revamp. A certain amount of cash has been allocated for both, and while that sum remains the same, it continues to be divided between projects included in those respective expansions. For example, we have seen some budget cuts in the Paradise Pier refurb (No wrap-around boardwalk for Fun Wheel, No rethemed Carousel) because that money is instead financing the other projects like Cars Land or The Little Mermaid that might be seen as more valuable than the little things being done throughout the park.
The situation in Shanghai is quite different from my understanding however. While the agreement was made with the Shanghai government last week giving approval to the park, the actual contents of the park may still be in flux. In Disney's own press release, they state that this agreement simply allows them to negotiate towards "A final agreement to build and operate the park and begin preliminary development work." This could very well mean that their are significant strides to be taken in the planning process that the Chairman of Parks and Resorts would certainly be involved in. A final budget has yet to be approved for the project (To Our Knowledge) and while Imagineering certainly has many plans laid out, there are still choices to be made for both the WDC and Shanghai, and Staggs will certainly have his say. I said that he will have full input, which I believe he will. That does not mean however, that Staggs' word is law in our Magical Kingdom. This project is certainly one of great interest to Mr. Bob Iger, and he isn't going to let Staggs make any decisions that he disagrees with. Also, as you point out, there is the will of the Chinese Government that comes into play in the creation of this park. But just look at how some of Disney's parks have changed from announcement to opening. Beastly Kingdom cut from Animal Kingdom, Frontier Land stripped from HKDL, and let's not even get started on the mess that Disney Studios Paris is said to be. So in response TH, perhaps "without question" may come off as strong, and your rebuttal is certainly not without justification. But from my outlook on the current situation, Shanghai is the project that is in the most susceptible state. The projects that have been approved stateside for the next three years have budgets that are essentially set in stone. Whether he chooses to interfere with said projects remains to be seen, but I think most of what will happen within the next 3 years will be WDI prioritizing and working within the budgets they have to put out the best overall project possible.
Sorry for the novel, but I'm just sort of typing as I think. This is all speculation mind you, but I hope I gave you a reasonable response to your inquiry Mr. Creative, and hope that we might be able to see eye to eye.
Published: November 13, 2009 at 1:05 AM^ What the Shanghai park has going for it is that the Chinese syndicate - 57% owners of the venture - saw exactly how the underbuilt Hong Kong park fared and are not about to make the same mistake.
Inside word is they are insisting on a "world-class" park with many more attractions than HKDL opened with. So even if Staggs was inclined to shrink the Shanghai budget, I doubt the Chinese would allow it.

It is particularly difficult to find the right way to write these communes in Chinese, because some names have a French, Walloon, Dutch or German origin. And even some local way to write it, with for example some German names written with French rules. For example also, "W" is pronounced the English or Dutch way in the French speaking part of Belgium, and not the French way ("W"="V"). And you gotta live there to know how people pronounce those places. I do... (列日)
- some letters are not pronounced. Ex : "Chaudfontaine' is prononced "Chaufontaine", "Anthisnes" is pronounced "Antine", ...
- some way to write are only found in this region. For exemple, "xh" instead of "h" is sometime pronounced, and sometimes not...
- Trooz is an old Walloon way to write ("trau")
- ...
It is also very important to speak the local language to know when you have to make a transliteration (most of the time) or a translation (ex : 默兹河畔圣乔治 - Saint-Georges-sur-Meuse)

Boxing needs a total overhaul
It's been a rough, rough week for President Barack Obama. What he's done during his first two years -- and he's done a lot -- was loudly repudiated by a collection of whacko Tea Party people, crazed Sarah Palin fans and well-meaning intelligent Republicans, although the last group seems to be a minority.
He needs something to bring his popularity back. And I've got the idea.
This president is famous for creating commissions and task forces. He's created commissions on Wall Street regulations, green jobs, small business deregulation, health care reform and on and on. Since he falls back on commission creation to help him out, it's time for another one.
He should create the Commission to Restore Boxing to Prominence.
Some people might think I'm kidding here, but I'm not. This is serious business.
I love boxing. I've always loved boxing. When I was young my dad used to take me to various rings around the city to watch fights. I even saw Sugar Ray Robinson fight in Milwaukee when I was seven or eight years old.
I've covered some great fights. Thomas Hearns against Sugar Ray Leonard. Leonard against Roberto Duran. I saw Marvin Hagler fight.
But if you ask me now who the champion is in any division, I couldn't tell you. I know the names of Pacquiao and Mayweather, but that's about it. And I'm sad about it. Boxing used to be, and still is, a beautiful sport, the essence of manhood. Macho, yes, but macho in a good way.
But the sport has been absolutely ruined by money and promoters. There are seemingly dozens of sanctioning bodies and championship belts. It seems like there is a new weight class every four and one-half pounds. Nobody can make sense of boxing.
So, let's ask our president to create a commission to run boxing worldwide. Kind of like a NATO of Knockouts. We can leave prize money where it is and have big Pay Per View events. But let's have one championship in each weight class. If you are the heavyweight champion of the world, you are the heavyweight champion of the world. When they call you champ, you are the Champ.
There are other steps that should also be considered.
Right now there are 17 weight classes. Let's cut that to 12 or 13. Establish the Boxing Channel on cable television. You could do live fights and show some of the classic old fights that are absolutely priceless to watch.
Every fight has to be sanctioned by the new commission and we're not going to have fighters with four fights under their belt going against someone who has 30 fights. We should change the judging so that we have some ringside judges and some judges sitting a little further back. All the cards will be added to determine the winner.
Rankings will be publicly formulated and announced weekly. You'd get good press, like the college football and basketball rankings. You can have a formula with votes from fighters, trainers and the press. This is critical to the success of the sport.
I know people are concerned about what's going on in Washington. There are obviously deep divisions in this country and nobody seems willing or anxious to cooperate. But I think this is one idea that would appeal to John Boehner, Rush Limbaugh, Keith Olbermann and Nancy Pelosi.
So kick it up, Barack. You obviously need something we can all get behind and repairing one of the greatest sports we've ever had could really do it.
Broner | Nov. 9, 2010 at 6:29 p.m. (report)
In reality, this is a really, really dumb idea. However, I think it would be a good idea for Obama to create the Commission to Restore Boxing to Prominence because virtually everything he did for his first two years in office caused a Republican avalanche last week. This would only further ensure that he doesn't get re-elected in 2012.

Boxing has been sanitized that's for sure; but haven't all sports? Plus the big factor with boxing is that there are only a few fights every year. That may not appeal to the 'gotta have it now' culture. I mean, I understand the injury factor, but that's the whole point of it: box smart or get hurt. MMA has never appealed to me despite the fact that Bruce Lee helped get it started (officially/unofficially). I've tried to like it, but unless you're like Bruce Lee fuhggedaboutit.

They already fixed it. It's called MMA. It's exciting to watch, people get ko'd and there are far less lifelong injuries from taking repeated blows to the head.

This new limited edition Leica camera combines Hello Kitty and the Playboy bunny, because wh0 doesn't want a twee cartoon cat adorned with those famous bunny ears? I mean, they both have major birthdays this year (Hello Kitty turns 40 and Playboy turns 60), so I guess that's as good an excuse to pair them off as any. And go figure, it's Playboy who is going for the younger woman.
The camera is for sale at the French store Colette for a cool $1,264. To be fair, the design is pretty cute. There's a whole collection of Hello Kitty and Playboy goodies for sale alongside the camera as well, including temporary tattoos and phone cases.
"People thought I was crazy, but now everyone agrees they look amazing together," said Sarah Andelman, Colette's founder. Carven designer Guillaume Henry had similar sentiments: "I'm always more intrigued by a couple's differences than similarities, so I love the whole idea of 'sexy kawaii.'" Sure. We'll go with that.

Akron, OH - Mature Services was recently given a one-time demonstration grant to increase and provide improved services to aid low-income older workers.
Awarded by the U.S. Department of Labor, the funds will be used by Mature Services to develop programs designed to increase employer engagement to improve unsubsidized job placement opportunities.
SCSEP (Senior Community Service Employment Program) provides part-time paid training, through community placement, for older workers who are over the age of 55 and low-income. This program allows them to upgrade their skill set and gain practical experience, while providing valuable support services to community agencies. Participants in SCSEP gain work experience in many community services and activities including non-profit organizations, schools, hospitals and senior centers.
"We are pleased to have this opportunity to expand our outreach and collaboration with employers throughout the region," said Paul Magnus, Vice President for Workplace Development at Mature Services. "At a time of diminished resources, the funds will also allow us to expand staff and develop new opportunities for our program participants."
The grants were awarded through a limited competition and there was a strict criteria that needed to be met to qualify as a recipient. Only applicants that had met specific benchmarks for utilization of past funds as well as performance could apply, and Mature Services met that criteria
"Mature Services works hard to utilize the funds we receive to best serve our clients," said Linda Valentine, president and CEO of Mature Services. "It is because of our success in meeting our goals that we merited this grant, and we are excited to develop new programs that will further serve our clients and the community."

Patrol vehicle stolen during foot chase in Georgetown County
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
Georgetown County authorities say a police vehicle was stolen Sunday morning during a foot chase in Georgetown County.
According to officials, Georgetown County Sheriff's Deputies were notified of mental commitment papers on a male patient who walked away from the Waccamaw Community Hospital Sunday morning. He was later seen walking down Highway 17 in the Murrells Inlet Community of Georgetown County.
After a brief foot chase, the suspect, later identified as 35-year-old Camilo Quiroga Diaz, was able to gain access to the deputy's marked patrol unit vehicle and left the scene. Diaz was later taken into custody by the North Carolina Highway Patrol after leading officers on a chase from Georgetown County to Tabor City, North Carolina.
He was transported to the Georgetown County Detention Center and is charged with Grand Larceny and Failure to Stop for Blue Lights.
During the vehicle pursuit, the Georgetown County Sheriff's Office was assisted by the South Carolina Highway Patrol, Horry County Police Department, Columbus County Sheriff's Office, and the North Carolina Highway Patrol.
This case is under administrative review as to the sheriff's deputy's actions before, during and after the vehicle was stolen.

Who Is Zyzz?
If you really had to ask, then you're a very sad kunt.
Aziz Sergeyevich Shavershian, better known as Zyzz, was an Austrialian bodybuilder, personal trainer, fitness model, internet celebrity and part time stripper. He was born march 24th, 1989 in Moscow Russia and died august 5th, 2011 in Bangkok, Thailand.
In the early 1990's his family moved to Australia. He was raised in Eastwood, New South Wales and attended Marist College Eastwood Catholic Secondary School. Prior to his death in 2011, he was set to graduate with a degree in Business and Commerce from the University of Western Sydney.
He was inspired by his older brother known by his internet handle Chestbrah, who was a bodybuilder to pursue gym as a sport. Aziz later became somewhat famous after filming and posting several videos on YouTube in 2007. He created a loyal fan base and inspired thousands throughout the world because of his lifestyle, personality and aesthetically pleasing physique.
Here's a video to see what I mean:
Zyzz Teenage Years
In high school, Zyzz was an avid World of Warcraft player, and was top 100 PVP players in Australia. He was also a big fan of Final Fantasy games and Star Wars. That's where he got the term young padawan he often used in his videos to describe people. He graduated high school with an UAI ranking score of 86.3.
Later, he sold his WoW account for $500 which he used to buy a gym membership.
Zyzz started working out regularly when he was 17. One year later when he was 18 he got his first tattoo on his chest, which read Veni Vidi Vici. He attended Macquarie University but got kicked out later for having bad grades and often being out of school.
He resided and trained at fitness first in Carlingford. Aziz then went to University of Western Sydney where he was set to graduate but passed away shortly before.
Zyzz Transformation
Starting Weight: 145
Age: 22
Weight: 220 lbs
Arm Size: 44 cm or 17.3 inches
Chest Size: 149 cm or 58.6 inches
Quad Size: 108 cm or 42.51 inches
Calf Size: 35 cm or 13.7 inch calf
From prince to king, from a loser to a legend, from Aziz to Zyzz, behold the transformation of a GOD.
Presenting the Journey from a skinny kunt to a sick shredded kunt! Were all gonna make it brahs!
Zyzz Workout Routine & Steroid Use
The father of aesthetics had many workout routines in his short bodybuilding career to due to the fact he did little to know research prior to his journey in the gym. Instead, Zyzz chose to experiment with trial and error to form the routine that best fit his particular needs.
After a while, he reportedly said in a interview some years ago that the best workout for him was as follows:
Read the entire article here <==
Zyzz became the poster boy for 'aesthetics', a subculture of Australian bodybuilding that focuses on the art, beauty and lifestyle of body sculpting. He had also started his own protein label "Protein of the Gods, and clothing line. Primarily, however, Zyzz was most at home in the gym, and his personal training and experience led to the creation of his Bodybuilding Bible, a definitive guide to achieving the ultimate physique.
Zyzz denied ever taking steroids, but shortly before his death he reportedly spoke with legendary Gold Coast loan shark, Tim Sharky, who asked him what he was taking, to which Zyzz replied, "Everything". The Daily Telegraph reported that the company Zyzz once worked for as stripper stated that he was a lovely guy, "aside from the steroids". Zyzz has also been quoted as using phrases such as "riding bicycles," which is gym slang for cycling steroids.
There was quite a bit of speculation to whether or not this was true. His gains were far beyond the capabilities of what was possible while bodybuilding naturally. Also, in several videos and pictures (like the one seen below) he has been seen getting shots in the ass claiming them to be flu shots:
He has referred to anabolic substances such as clenbuterol and D-bol and jokingly mentioned his lack of remaining testicles which is a side effect of most anabolic steroids.
Upon his death his brother chestbrah made a short video admitting to he and his brother Zyzz's frequent use of steroids.
And the account of a pinning buddy said the cycle that zyzz was running when they found him dead in Thailand was:
- Tren Ace 150mg/daily
- Test Prop 150mg/daily
- T3-25mcg twice a day and
- Clen 80mcg daily
It was also believed that he was stacking HGH along with his cycle when he could afford it. Haters gonna hate tho brahs so regardless of whether he was using gear or not we are all forever mirin'.
Zyzz's legacy is carried by his brother Chestbrah (Said Shavershian), who has also become an internet celebrity in his own right. Said is responsible for a 19-minute tribute video entitled, "Zyzz – The legacy"
Zyzz Philosphy & Fame
Zyzz philosophy on training is to never follow what a piece of paper tells you, and listen to what your body says and how it feels. Zyzz's view on life was that everybody, one day, will die and be forgetton.
Act and behave in a way that will make life interesting and fun. Fuck a mundane predictable life working Monday to Friday with something you derive no pleasure from. Find a passion, form relationships, don't be afraid to get out there and fuck what everyone else thinks. Trust me, its a lot more fun that way.
Don't ever pay people out or put people down. Instead just put yourself up and let the haters do their thing. Id rather be a person that's hated on, than a person that does the hating.
Zyzz's message is to train hard, don't be a hard cunt, enjoy life and don't take yourself too seriously.
Aziz Shavershian left behind a legacy as a bodybuilder, personal trainer and internet celebrity. A self-proclaimed ectomorph, the skinny kid transformed his body in 4 years , and became labelled by his fans as the "Son of Zeus". Zyzz originally started training to impress girls, but his motivation went beyond that as the years progressed, and he famously stated:
"I can safely say that my motivation to train goes far beyond that of merely impressing people, it is derived from the feeling of having set goals and achieving them and outdoing myself in the gym. I absolutely love it, the feeling of pushing out that last rep, and getting skin tearing pumps is something I don't see myself without."
Zyzz's favorite quote was "obssessed is a word the lazy use to describe the dedicated".
(He's not just a shredded sick kunt, he's an intelligent chap, too)
Zyzz quotes he was known for and made famous in his day to day life and videos:
- Fuuaarrrkkkk!
- Sick kunt
- U mirin' brah?!
- U mad son?!
- Come at me bro!
It's true that Zyzz has become a legend for millions of guys in the bodybuilding world. He is idolized and guys everywhere are inspired to be just like him, even going as far as to dress and have the same hairstyle he had has as well.
Zyzz Death
On August 5th, 2011 Aziz Shavershian suffered a heart attack and died while on holiday in Bangkok. Many news channels and other agencies reported he passed away in a sauna from heart failure due to image/performance enhancing drugs such as Clenbuterol and T3.
His brother Chestbrah later released a video on his brothers death stating that he was in an massage parlor getting a foot rub when he felt tired and told the masseuse he was going to lay down for a bit. He never woke up again after falling asleep.
There is a lot of speculation to how Zyzz died. Many people including his brother think there was some type of foul play involved and someone may have drugged him. Some go as far as to say hes still alive and living in miami.
He did it to possibly avoid drug dealers he owed money to, or to increase his popularity when he comes back to reveal it was all a hoax.
Despite all the rumors, his family did receive an official post mortem report on Zyzz from the Department of Foreign Affairs confirming it was an undiagnosed heart condition from the cardiac arrest he suffered and died from.
His family goes on to say that he did show symptoms of high blood pressure and shortness of breath the few months leading up to his passing but was unaware that he had any such condition. His death has affected his family deeply.
His brother goes on to say in a message he wrote on Zyzz Facebook page:
His fans have only increased since his passing. His facebook swelled from 52,000 followers to over 73,000 after his death broke the news.
And its not just his family it affected. A fan goes on to say this:
"Zyzz changed my life, I've never met him. But, when my life was hard and i felt like there was nowhere left to go, Zyzz showed me a new world, showed me that we are what we put into life, and that you can change yourself into whatever you wish to be."
Zyzz inspired a generation to shoot for the stars and never give he showed them what was possible with his transformation into the Son of Zeus, The Brother of Hercules and the Father of Aesthetics.
May your legacy live on in the hearts and minds of all those you have touched over the short time you were here.
You will be deeply missed and mourned. R.I.P brother and thank you for everything.

Plot Summary
Tsubaki doesn't understand why Urabe made a big deal about his liking of Imai Momoka and proceeds to buy her new photobook at the bookstore. When he walks out of the store he once again runs into his middle-school crush, Hayakawa, but is not able to recognize her right away because she cut her hair short. As they are walking together they happen to pass onto the topic of girlfriends and about Ueno and Oka. Hayakawa asks Tsubaki if he has a girlfriend, Tusbaki thinks for a second and says no. Hayakawa is surprised and reveals that she knew Tsubaki had a crush on her in middle school. Tsubaki confesses that in middle school he always thought Hayakawa's hair was really pretty.
Hayakawa seems to be having fun talking with Tsubaki. She then reveals that her boyfriend recently broke up with her. Tsubaki is happy that he can help her regain her confidence by talking with her. Tsubaki recounts a time where he saved a strand of Hayakawa's hair. Hayakawa doesn't think this is weird at all and tells him of a time where she saved a cup that was used by a boy she liked.
After Tsubaki tries cheering her up, Hayakawa starts crying. Tsubaki is not sure what to do, and when Hayakawa looks up at him with tears streaming down her face, Tsubaki thinks that Hayakawa looks really cute. The second thing Tsubaki notices is the drool dripping out of Hayakawa's mouth, Tsubaki wonders what another girl's drool tastes like. Hayakawa asks if they can meet up once in a while and talk. Tsubaki blurts out that he will come see her if she lets him taste her drool. Hayakawa says sure, and offers her drool on her finger. Tsubaki almost licks it but remembers what Urabe said, "Drool is our bond," then he stops himself and apologizes to Hayakawa. Hayakawa then realizes that Tsubaki must indeed have a girlfriend. Hayakawa asks who the girlfriend is, Tsubaki says, "Urabe Mikoto," then Hayakawa leaves.
The next day Hayakawa walks up to Urabe on her way to school. After a few words of introduction, Hayakawa, for whatever reason, invites Urabe to the Hoshinome Girl's Academy's upcoming culture festival on Sunday saying that Tsubaki will also be going. That night Hayakawa calls out Tsubaki to meet her outside. Hayakawa shows him a bruise on her face, which she says was given to her by her ex-boyfriend. Hayakawa then asks for Tsubaki's help and asks him to come to their school's festival on Sunday. Hayakawa thinks that if Tusbaki pretends to be her boyfriend, then her ex will decide to leave her alone. Tsubaki reluctantly agrees to do this for her. When Hayakawa heads home she stops by the park, wets her handkerchief and wipes off her fake bruise.
The next day, on their way home together, Urabe asks Tsubaki if he has any plans for this Sunday. Tsubaki lies and says he is going shopping with Ueno. The next day when they are having lunch, Oka tells Urabe about the Hoshinome Girl's Academy cultural festival and that she will be going with Ueno. Urabe is surprised because Tsubaki said he had plans with Ueno that day. When Tsubaki goes to the culture festival, he sees that all the female students are wearing costumes to showcase different cultures around the world. Tsubaki apologizes in his head to Urabe for doing this. Tsubaki then wonders what costume Hayakawa is wearing. Hayakawa happens to be wearing her middle school uniform and also a wig that looks like her old hair.

Courtney Stodden Told 14-Year-Old Ariel Winter To Marry Her 18-Year-Old Boyfriend, Of Course
For everyone whose job doesn't involve wearing pajama pants and reading TMZ all day, 14-year-old Modern Family star Ariel Winter emancipated herself from her, by all accounts, abusive, controlling stage mom and moved in with her sister who had to emancipate herself at the same age to escape similar abuse. In response, Ariel's mother has claimed the whole thing is because Ariel's having sex with an 18-year-old boyfriend, so naturally some paparazzi thought it'd be cute to ask Courtney Stodden for advice on the matter because she's also in a relationship where the sex is fictional. And, oh yeah, something about age. Radar Online reports:
Out in Hollywood Saturday night, Courtney was asked to share her wisdom about older men with Ariel.
Stodden was obviously confused at first, not seeming to have any idea who Ariel is.
Fortunately, husband Doug, was there to fill her in, helping Courtney come up with a good answer.
"I think it's awesome! As long as they're in love, it's okay," Courtney said with great enthusiasm.
"They should get married!"
Elmo's also embroiled in a situation with a younger man, so The Superficial reached out to him for his advice:
"Elmo not know what you're talking about. Elmo just want man's hand out of Elmo's butt. Why are you not helping Elmo? Elmo sees your phone has numbers 9 and 1 on it to call police. Please don't walk away from Elmo. ELMO FIND YOU!"
Words to live by, Ariel. Words to live by.

text: So, while none of these mockers actually gave the guy who ended up being drafted fourteenth - LSU defensive tackle Michael Brockers - to the Cowboys, they were reasonably accurate with the guys they did assign. Consequently, although we're only at the dawning of draft season, the consensus can give us some very workable parameters for our analysis. This year, the ten initial mockees are as follows: Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State Jesse Williams, DT, Alabama Sheldon Richardson, DL, Missouri Johnathan Jenkins, NT, Georgia Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A&M Lane Johnson, OT, Oklahoma Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina Chance Warmack, OG, Alabama Kenny Vaccaro, S, Texas Mike Glennon, QB, North Carolina State http://www.bloggingtheboys.com/2013...3-mock-draft-what-players-are-in-dallas-range Written before Matthews stayed at A&M.

I manage 3 small LANs. The main one is 40 nodes. Two smaller ones that have 15 nodes each are connected to the main LAN via two T-1 lines. Right now we use three Novell NetWare 3.12 servers with a frame 802.3. I heard it would be better to use frame 802.2 and also Ethernet II if we want to use TCP/IP as well as IPX/SPX. Why should I make this change?
-- Ezio Luccini
Yes, you should use a frame 802.2. A packet header in an 802.2 contains additional information to help with routing the packet to its correct destination. Novell realized this issue several years ago when NetWare 4.0 was released and changed the default frame type for IPX to 802.2.
You should also use Ethernet II to run IP. Anything else is a non-standard frame type and not routable outside of your network. Although it is possible to run IPX on Ethernet II, I wouldn't suggest this option.
Your inquiry brings up another item to consider. A router that handles both IP and IPX incurs a higher cost than a router used for IP alone. You would have to purchase a higher (and more expensive) version of IOS to handle multiple protocols. You may need to upgrade the RAM and the flash memory in the router as well.
Since NetWare 3.x has to have IPX to talk, you would need to upgrade to NetWare 5.1 to have a single protocol (i.e. IP) on the entire network. However, having a single protocol has other advantages -- less administrative work and less to troubleshoot when you encounter problems.
This story, "Combine 802.2 with Ethernet II to run IP" was originally published by Network World.

Hi S,
If you'll paste the below code in the topmost cell of the column you'd like to get comparion results in and then edit the A1 and B1 to reflect the columns in your sheet that you'd like to compare, then an "N" will be returned if the cells aren't equal and a blank space " " will return if they are equal. To compare the whole column, simply highlight the cell with the formula and corner drag as far down as necessary. You can also adjust output by changing the N between the quotes to whatever you want and adding anything between the second set to signify a match.
(essentially, is says if A1 is not equal to B1, then print an "N" else print a blank " ".)
Hope this helps,
1. Select column B (click the letter B)
2. Choose Format > Conditional formatting
" 3. In ""Condition 1"" choose ""Formula is"""
" 4. Enter this formula =(COUNTIF($A:$A,B1)=0)*(B1<>"")"
" 5. Click the ""Formats"" button and take your pick. OK.OK."
Now every name in B not in A will light up.
Another example
comparison of 2 columns
this function put in c1 and autofilled down will show the A1 value,
IF A1 does not exist anywhere in B1:B2000 -
3rd example...
Reply to: Compare two columns using wildcards
where A1 is a value from the 1st column and List2!A:A is
a reference to your 2nd column. This formula will return
0 or 1. 1 means that there's a match; 0 means there isn't.
You can apply a number format to change these values to any
flag you wish. For example, [=1][green]"Y";[red]"N" will
produce a green "Y" or a red "N".

Alot of Diana's books have been reprinted thru the years as MIRA reprints. If you live in the states you should check out paperbackswap.com It is a site where you list so many books and you get credits to get books from other members. Everytime you send someone one of your books you get another credit. There are quite a few DP books at PBS. You can even buy credits if you run out. Printer-friendly page | Top

Try your local library. That's where I go. We do a deal. I donate books to them and in turn, if there is a book I want (romance) I get to have that one for free.
I found mostly all the old books that way.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for hints all of you gave me in your posts. I can tell you that I was able to collect almost all of Ms. Palmer's books as a member of PBS and also BookMoch (great side with a lot of books and easier way to get points),book stores, thrift stores(found White Sand Wild Sea at Goodville store) and through Amazon and Half.com. I am short for (like most of you) At winter's end and Color Love Blue (quite expensive). I enjoyed looking for books and when i get them all (and i will, believe it) it will be boring just wait for new books. I read a lot of books from other authors but Ms. Palmer is the best. Hope that she will give as many many more. God bless her!

The forward price-to-earnings multiple compares a stock's price to analyst forecasts of earnings per share for the forward fiscal year, and therefore serves as a value metric which takes into account a company's potential to improve in the future. While analyst expectations often misfire, we can further hone low P/E stocks by identifying those which have recently beaten analyst estimates. There's no guarantee that these companies will do the same going forward, but this at least indicates that analysts have underestimated earnings in the past- and that another earnings beat could further suggest that the company should at least match performance for next year. Using data from Fidelity, here are five stocks with market capitalizations of at least $2 billion which carry forward earnings multiples of 10 or lower and which have reported at least a 50% earnings surprise in the last 90 days:
Wall Street analysts had been expecting Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) to earn 6 cents per share in Q1 2013, but the company ended up reporting adjusted EPS of 10 cents. Current forecasts imply that the airline is valued at a cheap multiple in terms of forward earnings estimates, as many investors shun airlines even as the industry has performed well in the market over the last year and US Airways's merger with American offers the potential to consolidate the industry. According to our database of hedge funds' quarterly 13F filings (which we track as part of our work on investment strategies, including our finding that the most popular small cap stocks among hedge funds outperform the S&P 500 by an average of 18 percentage points per year), billionaire David Tepper's Appaloosa Management owned 9.8 million shares of Delta at the end of March (find Tepper's favorite stocks).
Humana (NYSE:HUM) beat expectations by a double-digit percentage for the third quarter in a row, and with markets not liking health insurers very much either (partially due to concerns over future government regulation of the industry) the stock trades at 10 times consensus earnings for 2014. The $12 billion market cap company's revenue grew by 3% in its last quarterly report compared to the first quarter of 2012. Glenview Capital, managed by Larry Robbins, more than doubled its holdings of Humana between January and March to a total of nearly 4 million shares (see Glenview's stock picks).
Another company which has been beating expectations recently- it recorded 56 cents in EPS in its last quarterly report against a forecast of 37 cents- is Teck Resources (TCK). Teck produces industrial metals including copper, zinc, and metallurgical coal. At current prices the stock pays a 4% dividend yield, though we'd note that its business is highly correlated with the overall economy (the beta is 2.5) and in fact the dividend was temporarily suspended following the financial crisis. The forward P/E here is 9; it might be worth comparing to Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold.
Following a more than 90% rise in the last year, Avis Budget Group (NASDAQ:CAR) is still valued at only 10 times expected earnings for 2014; the sell-side expects continued growth beyond that point, and as a result the five-year PEG ratio is well below 1. Its most recent quarterly report showed 8 cents in adjusted EPS, beating expectations of 2 cents. We'd note that as with airlines there's potential for industry consolidation here as Hertz acquires Dollar Thrifty, though investors should be confident in the macro situation as well with Avis Budget's beta being 2.8.
Rounding out our list is Cliffs Natural Resources (NYSE:CLF), as the iron ore and metallurgical coal producer reversed a streak of earnings misses by delivering adjusted EPS of 60 cents per share in the first quarter of 2013. The stock is down 67% in the last year, and 32% of the float is held short as of the most recent data. Revenue and earnings were both down in its most recent quarter compared to the same period in the previous year as the steel industry (the source of demand for both iron ore and met coal) continues to be weak. Cliffs features a forward earnings multiple of 9.

Take a Look - Week 2 - Part 1
This is the first part of the second talk in the evangelical series following our "Open Sunday" in January 2009. The series was intended to give visitors (particularly non-Christian visitors) the chance to get to know us, and to understand some of the things we believe.In this second talk, Mark spoke on the topic "If the Bible is true, how could it possibly be Good News?". He talked about the fact that the gospel means that we don't have to be "good enough" in order to be saved - that it is not up to us, but rather that salvation is a gift from God; about the fact that this gives us the freedom to be able to choose to follow God; about the hope and direction that we get (rather than the ultimate purposlessness of a life without God); and about the fact that if the Bible is true, then it means that there is someone who loves and cares about YOU.

When we go to any mall, we see number of offers on many products. For attraction purpose, companies offer free stuff behind almost every next product we pick. And human psychology says we all love free stuffs, doesn't matter whether it's useful for us or not. Same principle also applies on online word.
While using online services like social networking sites, people usually hesitate to pay money to use any particular service unless it's very important for them. Number of peoples who generally prefers free stuffs are really huge and to attract this crowd to use any particular service, companies tries to keep it free for their users. As an alternative for this, they choose to place ads on their online sites and generate the required revenue.

Macquarie has maintained its "outperform" rating on
Wotif's growth slowed in the second half, and the key for brokers has been trying to figure out whether that volume slowdown was cyclical or structural. Macquarie was inclined to believe it was cyclical, because of weaker domestic leisure markets. It said further online migration and Wotif's strong market position provided a strong medium-term growth outlook.
UBS maintained its "buy" recommendation but lowered its 12-month target price to $5 from $6.10. UBS said it expected growth to eventually resume, and agreed headwinds appeared to be cyclical rather than structural, based on recent customer satisfaction and traffic surveys showing Wotif.com was still the market leader by a large margin.

PINEHURST, N.C. – Playing in his first PGA Section event, former Saint Leo University men's golfer Chris Marinaro claimed the Carolinas Section of the 2009 Callaway Golf PGA Assistant Championship which was contested over a two-day period at the Forest Creek Golf Club.
Marinaro, who was a member of the Lions' golf team from 2004-08, entered the clubhouse after an opening round three-under-69. He came out the following day on fire once his second-round tee time got underway.
He started the day strong, birdying the first three holes but his momentum hit a wall when he bogeyed the 540-yard, par-5, 7th.
"I had a three-inch putt for par and didn't really think about it - I ended up missing and getting myself the only bogey of my round," he said. "It made me realize that it wasn't just going to be that easy and I ended up playing well for the rest of the round."
It all came together on the 511-yard, par-5 14th where he came away with an eagle and as he widened the gap with the other competitors coming down the stretch. A birdie on 18 sealed the deal.
"I had a great time playing out here," said Marinaro, as he thanked Callaway Golf, Forest Creek Golf Club's members and staff, and a host of others, including his dad, who was his caddy, and his mom and girlfriend who walked along.
"I'm really excited about this opportunity, and it was great having my parents here from Massachusetts. This is a first for me and I'm looking forward to making the most of it."
Marinaro came to Saint Leo after winning three state championships where his stroke average was in the mid-to-high 70's. During his time in the Green & Gold, he helped to set a new team scoring record. The native of Pittsfield, Mass. graduated with his degree in Sports Business before beginning his professional career at the Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, S.C.
Marinaro will now head to Florida with four other qualifiers who came out of the Final Round. The group of five will join golfers from the other 41 sections of the PGA Tour in the national championship at the PGA Golf Club's Wanamaker Course in Port St. Lucie, Fla. on October 1st.
