Obama Says Russian Invasion Violates International Law
President Obama is calling Russia's intervention in Ukraine a violation of both international law and Ukrainian sovereignty.
The President's comments today come as the U.S. weighs possible sanctions against Russia for sending troops into the Crimean region.
Obama called the action "unprovoked" and said his administration is reviewing a series of possible steps to "isolate Russia."
He also warned that Russia is on the wrong side of history.
Meantime, the U.S. and Russian ambassadors to the United Nations are sparring over Russia's military intervention in Ukraine. At a UN Security Council meeting, American Ambassador Samantha Power said Russian troop movements into Ukraine's Crimean region are unjustified. She called it an act of aggression and a dangerous military escalation.
Russia's Ambassador said his country is reacting to the transitional Ukrainian government's efforts to root out pro-Moscow supporters and political parties. Power said there's no evidence to support that assertion. (Metro Networks Inc)

Video Highlights The Similarities Between Obama And Reagan
They don't pay me to talk about politics here at the Banana, and I'm really not smart enough to anyway. But when I saw this video showing statements from Presidents Obama and Reagan regarding taxing the richest Americans, I figured I would share.
I really don't want to talk politics. It doesn't matter if you are liberal or conservative, when you talk politics, everybody gets on this high horse and acts like they have some sort of expertise in the field and acts like the if government would just listen to them, America would be perfect. I don't wanna hear it, but you'll probably spout off anyway. Also, I can't stand people who disrespect the office of the President. Hank Williams Jr needs to shut his whiskey hole, just like the Dixie Chix needed to shut their man pleasers.

Need Appliance Repair Help? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
Hi, thanks for using JustAnswer.com. CLICK HERE for the service manual. Page 36 gives you specific instruction on reprogramming the control.
Ok followed those instructions all functions on the reset work as discribed code was correct. tried pushing door alarm button for 3 seconds to complete sequence, no change tried opening door to end sequence no change tried changing code off correct setting then bact to correct setting no change.
Followed service test sequence as discribed in manual all seems to be working correctly. any suggestions? entire panel seems to be locked, no ice or water features will work but under service sequence watter worked on test

To Unlock Dispenser:
green indicator light above will go out
It appears that the control is faulty. You have done everything to reset and reprogram. I have gone through the service bulletins regarding this and we have done everything there is to do. My recommendation is to replace the control. Given the history of failure with these, I see no other option. We have reset all there is to reset and programmed all there is to program. I can't remember if you said you power cycled the unit, but if you have not, unplug for about 5 minutes then plug back in. If still no change, replace number 35 in the picture, located in the rear of the refrigerator. Part available HERE.
my fridge control panel does not look like the one pictured in the manual

the asterix are what are lit, the light on the dispenser are where ice and water come out is stuck on, I cannot get any thing but a beep when I try to hit cube or water or any other function like turn light to auto when in service mode I can get the water and light to function during the test but the fridge skips right over test #182 I think it was when I went thru the whole list in the manual . what does that mean?
I suspect the main control. The controls on the dispenser are low voltage switching controls only. They are only the user interface for the main control. All functions get their signal and power from the main control. Post your complete model AND serial number....I want to search specifically for that series and see if anything comes up that way.
well the format layout i tried to send you did not display as i typed it :)
My model number is XXXXX MFI2266AEU ser #10364644NC
Nothing new....model shows same as I looked up. My thought is control....there really is nothing else that would cause the unit o resist all programming and resets.
Well, thanks for the update! I learned something, thanks! I will put your question in for refund of your deposit. Thanks again for passing that info along!

Only a fraction of the loan modifications completed in 2012 were through the government's HAMP
FHA offers new options for borrowers struggling to pay their mortgages.
Statistically, America may be digging out of the foreclosure quagmire caused by subprime mayhem and the subsequent collapse of the housing bubble …
You'll have more time to seek a mortgage modification under the Home Affordable Modification Program, or HAMP. And maybe your lender will be more likely to write down principal. HAMP's expiration date has been extended one year, to the last day of 2013, the Treasury Department announced this afternoon. Treasury announced other changes, too: •
If you're one of the many homeowners who have gone through the frustrating experience of trying to work with your lender to get a loan modification, this may serve as a bit of consolation. The U.S. Treasury says it is withholding incentive payments owed to the three of largest servicers participating in the Home Affordable
Why were you turned down for a HAMP modification? That's the question that the U.S. Treasury aims to answer with an online calculator that was posted yesterday. It also can help answer the question: Will I be approved for a HAMP mod? The calculator can be found at the dreadful URL CheckMyNPV.com. For search engine
The debate over the success or failure of the federal government's Home Affordable Mortgage Program, or HAMP, entered a new phase two weeks ago, when Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, introduced a bill that would all but eliminate the entire program. The bill, H.R. 430, HAMP Repeal and Deficit Reduction Act of 2011, would end any
Borrowers who can't make their mortgage payments may wonder why lenders are loathe to accept less in lieu of foreclosure. The reasons can be found in a recent Congressional oversight panel report about the Treasury's Home Affordable Modification Program, or HAMP. The report focuses on HAMP, but much of the information is equally applicable to non-HAMP
"Failure" may be too harsh a word to describe the shortcomings of the U.S. Treasury's Home Affordable Modification Program, but HAMP hasn't exactly been an unqualified success either, judging by the Executive Summary of a 192-page report issued Dec. 14 by a Congressional oversight panel. Here are three snippets, quoting directly from the report: •

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
Fish in the bar Stains on the bed and the water pressure was really low in the shower
It was within walking distance to all the major attractions. The AC units in the room were extremely loud, sounded like a percussion band coming through our room each time it turned on. Also, the walls aren't very think and can hear every word your neighbors speak.
The hotel was in a great location Everytime I asked someone working there a question, they either didn't know or wouldn't help.
The hotel was very nice and the staff even nicer. It's location and views are great. Downtown Louisville has an eclectic selection of restaurants and bars as well as different museums within easy walking distance if you choose to explore. If not, there are several bars and eating places there at the hotel. We parked the car when we got there and only had to get back in it once when we went to Churchill Downs. We will stay again if our travels take us back to Louisville. The prices for some of the casual food places was too high. $2.65 for a large coffee at the walk up Thelma's and $16 per person at the Magnolia Cafe for an ordinary breakfast buffet is a bit much.
There was an error in my reservation where a third party had booked 2 reservations for me. I was unaware of this until I arrived at the front desk. I spent an hour with the front desk and several hours on the phone with management trying to resolve the issue and they were unwilling to help me in my situation. I was shocked that they were so unwilling to even help a little with the issue. This lack of flexibility really put a bad taste in my mouth and I'll most likely not stay here the next time around.
Stayed the night for an event at yum center. It was very. Ice to have access to event from hotel skywalk I like a softer mattress. But it didn't really effect my slumber lol.
Good location. Greatly in need of many updates. Extremely outdated property.
Our suite was very nice. Bedding and bathroom were both very clean and fresh.View was great - we could see the city and the river from our vantage point. The room had a nice bar area with refrigerator, however we had to ask for extra glasses. There was a stain on one of the chairs, a light bulb was out, and we only had one drinking glass in room. However, they replaced the light bulb promptly and brought us extra glasses when we asked.
Location was great. Had a lot of facilities. Good restaurants. Little dated. And very huge. Felt empty.
He hotel is in an amazing location but it's old and in need of updates. I would stay there again. You could tell something's were very old and needed updating. My suite room was not very clean.
It was clean. The bed was so uncomfortable and the sheets were like sandpaper. The room was dark and lighting was poor and the place needed updating badly.
Staff The basic rooms
Staff is nice and does its best to be helpful Hotel is badly in need of a refresh. My room was tired, carpet had stains. Quality is really variable.
need more updates with carpeting - or better cleaning service
Wonderful lobby bar and a beautiful old grand hotel. My new go to for Louisville Only had an issue with one server but I feel I only noticed it because the rest of the service was so fabulous
Gorgeous and historical!
Perfect atmosphere with tremendous service. Really hated to leave.
No refrigerator or microwave in room was inconvenient.
Beautiful atmosphere, excellent staff. The ac in our room was not effective and the room was very hot. There was a large group of high school students who were very loud and took over the lobby at one point. I would think that booking large groups of children would not be common place in this hotel as it appeals mainly to adults and the noise from kids works against the atmosphere.
Room was poorly appointed for the cost. No fan in the bathrooms. Doors are lightweight and thin, as are the walls. Room size was rather small. There is a Hampton Inn nearby that offers a much better value for a lower price point. That will be our go-to spot for future trips to Louisville.
Our stay at the Brown Hotel was exceptional. Great location to all attractions and site seeing. The hotel was very nice, clean, and spacious. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall we were very pleased with our stay at the Brown. Our only dislike may not be a problem with others. The bed was too soft. We are use to a more firm mattress. Didn't sleep well and woke up with a backache. The bed was just too plush us.
Our experience overall was great...but I don't feel it was anything over the top for the type of property that it is and rate that we paid per night. The location was good...and many of the staff members were very hospitable and kind.. James in in-house reservations was wonderful, as I called to reconfirm our reservation, note our preferences and that it was Anniversary and he blocked us accordingly. Evan and Amanda were truly welcoming at check-in. Colin our Bellman/Valet was very personable and always gave great recommendations. Shamaya in housekeeping was so very friendly and welcoming...always offering us chocolates which was a sweet touch!! There are a few items that we didn't truly enjoy during our stay... I called in and noted it was our Anniversary during our stay and honestly expected some type of acknowledgement during our time there...and there was nothing. In past stays at luxury properties they have at the least mentioned it during check-in...and then at times upgraded us or even sent a little something with a card up to the room. I felt this was a missed opportunity to WOW!!! The mattresses are definitely an item that should be replaced...as they seemed older and were quite uncomfortable. We opted to reserve a room on the Club Floor to take advantage of inclusions...which we had higher expectations for the Club Lounge. As both food offerings for both "happy hour" and breakfast were very repetitive and seemed "cheap"/low-quality. With staying at a luxury property that boasts a talented culinary team we expected higher quality and more variety.
The architecture Being charged for parking
The staff was superb. Service was impeccable. The facilities were very clean. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed every aspect of the Brown Hotel. A hot brown for breakfast at the J. Graham's Cafe was the perfect ending to our stay. Loved it! The only thing that I did not like was the fact that we could not go into the clubhouse because we were not a member.
The noise in the hotel did not stop all night. When I checked out in the morning there was a drunk asleep in front of my door. Not worth it
The location is great, right on fourth street. The bed was very comfy and the tv was huge. The bathroom was freezing, and the noise from the late night parties echoed from the lobby right outside the door, made it hard to sleep. Valet was expensive and the pool was alright, kind of small. No hot tub. No free wifi, no breakfast included. For the cost, I expected more.
The basic room appeared recently renovated and was borderline luxurious, depending on your definition of luxury. Definitely highly comfortable. High-end bathroom, bed and bedding were marvelous, the robe is a welcome touch. Stayed Fri-Sun, there was a lot going on in and around the hotel. I was pleasantly surprised at how the noises disappeared once my room door closed. The complimentary Wifi was more than sufficient for my needs without having to upgrade, and was trouble-free. Nice to see a hotel that's recognized by 2016 that a couple of USB charging ports on the nightstand might be handy; I didn't have to take my wall charger out of my bag. There's a room safe big enough for a 13" laptop (but not a 15") and the safe has a 110V outlet inside the door, nice. Huge flatscreen with great sound. Room keys are chips, not mag swipe, so you can unlock the door without taking the key out of your wallet. The elevator might leave your stomach in the lobby when you're going up ;) Parking was advertised at $13 but ended up being only $10; there's no integration with the room key though so you have to keep up with your ticket. This hotel is connected to the Louie Link enclosed walkway that runs from Galt House and KFC Yum Center at the north to Fourth St Live at the south. And the staff is great! Highly recommended. Thanks!
location, gym, comfy bed
This is a awesome hotel in a great location. Staff at the desk were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The room was decorated in a very modern style. There was a 65 inch TV in the room. The hotel also has a restaurant and bar. I ate 3 meals there and the fool was good and preparation was excellent. I would not hesitate to stay there again., Front desk workers, although eager to assist, did not have a good command of the English language. The accents were very heavy, and sometimes I had to ask them 2 or more times to repeat what they said.
The staff was wonderful and friendly the room was great and clean they even left some body spray on the pillow bathroom was very clean we were minutes from Kentucky kingdom and we walked there and if I ever got back it is where I would stay 2 They had this beautiful pool and court yard buy I tried to relax in it and it was full of black ppl and I tried on 3 different occasions and as late as 9:30 but all the children (and there were like 40) were out of control throwing things splashing running around and the life guard doing nothing to stop them .. Later found out that there was a family reunion of some sort but as I sat in the courtyard I watched other families and guest come down and see the craziness and turn around and leave...
We loved the size of the pool and that it was indoor/outdoor. The room was clean and nicely decorated. We also enjoyed the balcony overlooking the pool. The hotel staff was very friendly. The shuttle was also very helpful. We really feel that each room should have a refrigerator and microwave. We would have also liked to have some sort of complimentary breakfast. My husband and I stay in many hotels throughout the year and this is the first one to not have any of the amenities I have stated above.
Overall our stay was good. The room and hotel were very clean and the beds comfortable. The location would have been great for going out (which is why we selected it) had we had the time, but didn't work this time around for us. The only downside for this hotel is the shower. My husband had a difficult time since he he is over 6 feet tall and the shower head was for people closer to 5 1/2 feet or shorter. The pressure was also barely there and quite noisy from I think trying to get the pressure.
Whirpool was unbelievably dirty, ypi cpuld scrape the dirt off the tiles, water was brown n smelled horribly warer was also warm not proper hot tub temperature, swimming pool floor was filthy as well, very disappointed and dissatisfied especially for the money I paid.
The location is good. The room was dirty and we couldn't get them to come clean it. They said they were busy. The maid would knock very early then we asked her to come back later and she never did. The manager was very rude when we asked about the cleanliness. There wasn't enough hot water at all. It was very disappointing especially considering the price for our two dad there.
The staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. The parking garage was hard to get to.
Need to have free Internet. It's 2015
That the internet was not included. The room was not cleaned till 1:30 in the afternoon. The front carpet outside the hotel was dirty. The rooms were very small.
elegant rooms and comfortable bedding great location room was a bit small but adequate and room near elevator had lots of hall noise
The staff is great. The historic nature of the hotel is impressive. Location is central and steps from restaurants and entertainment. Bed was comfortable. The room and bathroom were small. Furniture was basic hotel-grade as were the linens and towels. Shower curtain was flimsy and frayed. The room was pretty, but there was nothing luxury or high-end about it. It was a very standard grade hotel room for the price.
The room smellled very bad, my wife could not sleep during the night and could not eat breakfast the next morning. One of the worst experiences we have had traveling. I am glad it was only a nights stay.
There are steps in the hallways to the rooms.
I've stayed here many times before but feel like this was the worst yet. We typically stay here because the location is great but I may have to find something else in the future. The staff is great though. They're very friendly. My room smelled musty as soon as I walked in. I thought by turning the A/C on would help but it didn't. All weekend it was musty. The A/C in this room didn't get the room cool even though I had it on the coolest setting. The hairdryer broke, which was no big deal since they replaced It immediately. The plumbing in the shower needs to be repaired as water was coming out of a hole towards the base of the faucet. There were cracks in the tile and the toilet was so low I felt I was sitting on the ground. Their Continental breakfast had no variety. Only bagels, cereal, mini muffins, bread, biscuits and gravy and awful tasting hard boiled eggs. If you're on a gluten-free diet, beware. Oh they did have a couple pieces of fruit. I did enjoy the coffee! Hope this review helps others make a good decision.
It was conveniently located. The room had a very strong air freshener smell, which made me wonder what they were trying to cover up...
We requested a fridge when we made the reservations, front desk told us to call ahead the day of, so we did just that. Called the day of and they said it will be in n the room. We checked in and again asked about the fridge, they didn't have it set up yet and said they would do so, well that was at 3pm, it didn't get to the rm until 11pm. I called down a few times to check and was told the maintenance man was busy and I have to wait! Tried to explain to them that I had medicine that needed to be refrigerated and that I was trying not to be a pain. Didn't matter, the front desk was very short and rude with me.
Location worked for us, close to everything we needed. Older décor in common areas and rooms. Low quality linens and toiletries
The staff was absolutely amazing! Pools were great as well as the rooms! Me and my kiddos will definitely be back!
Clean Fire alarm system wasn't checked and started beeping sound all night
Convenient near the freeway for on the way travelers. It doesn't have elevators to go to the upper level. It becomes complicated to carry luggage. We requested a room change because the one we got had a strong mildew odor.
The rate was the only really good part about this hotel. Our two rooms both had very odd, strong smells. The pools were nice but there were issues with their rules being enforced.
We liked the location, close to everything that we did in Louisville. Nice pools indoor and outdoor. Friendly staff that gave great restaurant recommendations. A bit older, but they are doing renovations. Not many choices for hot breakfast and the breakfast room was a bit crowded later in the morning. No refrigerator in the rooms.
Location to mall It is very old, needs renovation really bad. Hallway not air conditioned. Bathroom very small.
Late night front desk staff went above and beyond. The daytime host at the restaurant is rude and condescending. This is the second stay during which he has been such. I may not take my meals there for my stay later this month because of his smart ass presence.
21C is an awesome bar/restaurant/gallery/hotel. We were excited to stay there on our first night of marriage since we had our first kiss there three years ago. The staff is excellent and the energy superb. Unfortunately there was absolutely nothing distinctive about the room. For a hotel as well reviewed as this place, there needs to be a serious statement in the room with either art pieces, the design of the room, etc. This room could have easily been a new Westin or some urban Marriott concept. The rooms we stayed in had there share of use and will probably need to be renovated relatively soon. So if I were you, I'd save $100+ per night, stay at the Brown or Seelbach, and spend your savings on dinner and drinks at 21C/Proof. Or heck, get a boss Airbnb in the Highlands or Nulu.
Good Location next to 4th Street Live and near to the convention center. Free Shuttle from airport a real plus. Newer hotel in an older building. Bathroom was very large but surprisingly the bedroom area was on the small side. Everyone on staff at the property seemed very nice. Enjoyed the hot breakfast and happy hour. Housekeeping was not so good. Coffee rings on counter remained through my stay never wiped up. Returned to my room one day at 5 PM to find the room was never made up so the next day I called to housekeeping to make sure my room would be cleaned before my 5 PM return only to come back to an untouched room. Very disappointing. Blackout drapes extremely hard to open or close. Had to call maintenance and the pull rod fell off one time. Maintenance said these drapes have been a constant problem.
The hotel was newly finished and was beautiful. The location was centralize and idea for activities in the downtown area. I travel often and regularly stay in a variety of hotels which fall into this category (many of them are also Embassy Suites.) However, In my many years of travel I have never found a larger group of rude, dismissive, and unprofessional employees then those of Embassy Suites in Downtown Louisville. Not until my recent visit to this hotel, was I ever given the impression that a hotel staff was intentionally trying to NOT be accommodating and/or helpful. It interesting that a team in the service industry, would seeming go out of their way to do this. This is also rather disappointing, considering that I paid almost $700.00 for two room and a 1 night stay. I would think for that price I should NOT have a "supervisor" raise his voice to me, then publicly shame me for booking through a 3rd party booking site (apparently this makes you a second class citizen and justifies them treating you poorly,) and then proceed to scream at me "what do you want me to do about it." Please keep in mind that this was in front of my friends and about 20 stranger in the lobby, oh and 10 other employees of the hotel... Classy! All of this stemming from their in ability to accommodate the simple request of adjoining rooms. Also keep in mind that I had called this hotel several times in the days prior to my check-in and spoke to a variety of people regarding this. All of whom told me different things - everything from "sure, no problem," to "I've added a note..., "or call back on this day and tell them to..." Also during this train wreck of an experience, I had two employees who couldn't even find my reservation, one of which did everything but call me a liar. However, he did manage to rather blatantly imply that I didn't really have a reservation and that I must have either made a mistake, or was making it up to pull one over on them....are you kidding me?!? As it turns out, the only reason they couldn't find my reservation was because the employees didn't understand that if you are trying to pull up a booking from a later date, you have to change the date of your search to that day and not the current date... Sounds rather basic... Of course, I can't blame those employees - clearly they were poorly trained! In short - unless you want to be verbally abused by the staff and be made to feel bad because you only spent $700 on your room(s) instead of $750, this is not the place for you.
Super downtown hotel, excellent service, very modern and contemporary furnishings. My meetings were across the street in the old outdated Selbach Hotel which was full. I am so glad that I chose to stay across the street at the Embassy, so much nicer setting. Thermostat didn't allow the room to get cool enough and the beautiful glass shower allowed water to leak out onto the floor.
Nice pool, nice decor, great dining floor with complementary breakfast and early evening refreshments. Convenience to venues on 4th Street Live. A good safe place for families even with young children, and still stylish.
The front desk staff knew what they were doing. They answered all questions with a smile and what they said was a fact. The valets went over the top to accommodate our special requests and there were several. If you want to stay near 4th Street Live. This is the place. The free breakfast was great and the happy hour was too. Stay here when in Louisville. I know I will again. I did not meet a single employee who was not friendly and professional. Well done all.
Good, centralized location. Walkable city. Lots to see and do. The hotel staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. Room was well appointed with plenty of outlets for charging electronics. Breakfast was well stocked and with a good assortment of food from which to choose. Pool was clean, exercise room had purvey of options from which to choose. Even on the eighth and highest floor, the street noise (esp frequent sirens, fire trucks, etc) was loud. We were traveling with expensive medication that required refrigeration (not freezing) and were aghast to find the water bottle in the fridge frozen solid in the morning. Even after turning the controls all the way down, the temperature was still enough to freeze water overnight e next day. The tub drained very slowly and the toilet seats are the cheap kind that slip across the rim of the toilet, leaving one feeling off-centered when seated. The shampoo 'samples' are in such small bottles that it's nearly impossible to get much out (particularly given that there's not that much in there to begin with).
Great location & quality without paying through the nose. Rude guests on our floor, nothing to do with the hotel or staff!
Traveled with my teenage daughter. The hotel was centrally located and 3 blocks walking distance from 4th Street. The free breakfast was ample and we felt very safe. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly too! 1. There was a parking charge which wasn't noted when I booked. Chose this hotel because I like to park myself (and thought it was free) vs paying valet most other places. If I had known of the fee I would have just gone somewhere else and paid valet. 2. Bathroom - No fan in the bathroom made it a hot steamy mess. Also the tub drained so slowly it filled up during the shower. I'm surprised no one cleaning the shower noticed/reported the slow drain.
Staff at front desk, cleaning staff and staff in the breakfast area were all very friendly! I travel VERY frequently for business and truly appreciate that the towels I hung up were left there for me to re-use (as suggested by the notice in the bathroom). I would say this only happens 1 out of 10 stays. Usually I get totally new, clean towels even when I hang up my used towels. It's important to me to save energy and other resources and when a hotel advertises its green policies it means a lot when they stick to them. Thanks so much to the housekeeping staff for being environmentally conscious! Hampton Inn continues to be my hotel chain of choice for pleasure and business travel.
I made the mistake of showing up a day early for my reservation. The hotel staff found me a room anyway. The hotel was clean our room was clean and the staff was very friendly. They do offer breakfast but I didn't get up for that. I did go to a place called Toast on Market for breakfast and it was very good. The location is great. They offer a free shuttle to anyplace downtown but that is something else I did not take advantage of because everything is in walking distance. We only stayed one night but we bounced around downtown Louisville for the entire day and we were able to leave our car parked on the hotel lot for free. Eddie Merlot's Steak and Seafood was a fantastic place to have dinner as well. Great food and great service.
Impressive breakfast spread
Close to 4th Street and downtown Helpful staff
Checkout time
Within walking distance to Yum center, 4th street, and many restaurants. Staff is very friendly, loved the coffee bar, and didn't have a problem getting a late check out. Will stay again! No problems or complaints
Staff was very friendly. Lobby was pretty, breakfast was above average for continental type breakfast. Free shuttle to anywhere in downtown area until 11pm. The carpet in the room smelled damp. While the hotel is 'centrally' located, being right in the downtown area, it's not exactly the nicest part of downtown but this is subjective. Also, two drunk guests walked into the elevator, one of them smoking a cigarette on the elevator. Maybe smoking in public areas is acceptable at this hotel but it's definitely not something I was accustomed to encountering. Overall, I wasn't super satisfied with the hotel.
Very clean, modern facilities, complimentary happy hour was popular for a reason, staff was friendly. Highly recommend. Crazy family birthdays on the weekends.
fairly quiet there was something that the 1st nite maid could of done but I forgot now....room by elevator was a little loud, shakey
The room was beautiful! The bed was better than the one I have at home! & everything was very clean! Only down side is the complementary breakfast is over a bit early & the pillows get a little flat as you lay on them, but nothing a good fluff can't fix!
Super clean and in a great location! 9 minutes from down town and about 10 from the shopping malls. Room service was great and the food tasted wonderful!
I had been up for 22 hours and I can't tell you enough how comfortable the bed and pillows were . I was happy with everything
The hotel was only minutes fr airport, clean and comfortable. I had dinner in the bar where the server was super friendly and food tasted great. I didn't get my wake up call and airport shuttle doesn't run for early flights.
La atención del.personal, la limpieza, la ubicación para las actividades que había planeado No incluye el desayuno
After staying a night at the Four Points I didn't think it was an awful hotel, until I was charged three separate times in the following two weeks. The first two were supposedly deposits for damage at $50 each that the manager claimed would "fall off." Until I called a second time those charges remained on my card. I thought it was over until last week when another $72.40 appeared from the hotel. When I called about that charge they claimed someone must have charged food from the restaurant to our old room number. I asked for them to remove it, but they claimed it would have to wait to be investigated and there was still no promise the charge would be removed. I ended up having to call my bank to cancel the charge. Needless to say, I don't recommend this hotel to anyone. The stay wasn't bad, but it's not worth the hassle afterwards.
Very nice lobby, check in and check out was really quick, room was amazing for the price I paid. The complimentary coffee was surprisingly good. I didn't realize how close the hotel was to the Louisville Airport. I could hear planes taking off all through the night. That coupled with the very loud fan led to zero sleep.
Nice employees and super nice beds. TV was also nice.
The pool was nice and the kids had a great time, which is the important thing. The food and staff at Stadium Joe's were great! Maintenance staff was very helpful. I had to ask to be checked in after waiting 20 minutes. The door keys don't work on the poolside. We moved rooms bc of it and neither worked. Our friend was locked out of her room for 2 hours because both door latches locked. I had a 50.00 security hold put on my bank card without anyone advising me first.
Staff was great! Could be a great place. Offered a lot t of fun extras. The bartender at the hotel made our entire stay by much better! Internet was down because someone hit the transformer on the previous night, but no one seemed to care that we were very inconvenienced by this. One vending machine in the entire building worked. Room was dirty. Even found a used tissue between the wall and headboard. Building could be entered without having to use the provided key slots. Restaurant was way overpriced and gross.
location and the size of the room Wi-Fi didn't work, hotel needs updating, has lot of potential, game room needs updating,
Location was accurate Room service was terribal an air condition kept freezing up
The Lobby and all public areas were very nice. The staff gave us the breakfast buffet free due to being part of a local conference even though we had not book the proper way to get the free buffet. Staff was nice, when I interacted with them, we were at the hotel very little. Location was perfect for the event we were attending. The beds were decent/clean (I think). Overall price was cheap! Very outdated rooms in poor condition, there were few outlets and the ones that did exist didn't work well, one was missing a cover and was very loose (a fire hazard). The light on the main switch was not plugged in so I thought there was no light in the room when I first got there(I plugged it in then I had light). There was a big stain on the carpet, plus a smaller one(s). The $7.99 breakfast buffet was very similar to Ramada's competition's free continental breakfast. Wifi did not work good, it was open to the public, (no password) but very laborious to use, you had reconnect often.
They are close to the airport. The air conditioning worked. No bedbugs. The airport shuttle only runs from 7am -11pm. My flight came in at 10:30pm and they wouldn't pick me up. My return flight left at 6 am and it cost $14 their Uber. The walls are thin, the security door to the outside was broken, the bathroom door didn't close, the bathroom fan didn't work, there was dog food on the floor, there were dirty towels in the room and kids were running and screaming in the halls till 4 am. Oh, and the decor is fraying. In summary, it was dirty, run down, and i didn't sleep well. I paid $74/night and it was the only place available that weekend. If you have to stay here, it will do but don't expect any luxuries. If i had known the shuttle wouldn't pick me up or drop me off I would never have booked this place.
This was a terrible experience. Bed Bugs, a pool that is closed often, and an unfriendly staff for the most part. The hotel is not well kept and has water leaking in everywhere. It rained for a total of 25 minutes on the first of the 4 nights I stayed their and water could be found on the ground in and around the snack machine area the entire time. They did little to nothing to resolve the issue. We had to change rooms multiple times bcause the keykard machine didn't work and they couldn't get our rooms unlocked. Three of the individuals in our room came home with Bed bugs in their bags and one of them had over 30 bites on them. I do not review things ever, but this was so bad I felt I had to. The pictures on the website are very old, you will not find that the inside is representative of them AT ALL. Go to a different Hotel. Trust me.
Staff was really friendly and helpful Rooms clean and comfortable 2 groups of people in town for meeting/ convention the NRA and a Baptist Church...the safest place in town To answer the questions I would say the layout was old and felt like I was walking up and down hills of the long hallways but I'm not really complaining
The bed was comfy and the room was great priced. There were problems with the wifi but they were resolved quickly, a few scary looking stains on the carpet.
The beds were comfortable. The place smelled musty and the walls in the hallways were dirty.
We arrived at 5pm for check-in and we told to wait because rooms were not clean - Garth Brooks concert the night before. Poor management and service, they could have offered us a free drink while we waited. Instead they guided us to their overpriced bar. They told us 20 minute wait, turned into 1 hour until we were able to get into our room. Not what I expected for the price and the hotel reviews.
Loved the location, downtown bars and the KFC Yum Center were all a comfortable walk away. Did not like the price of the hotel. But the location was so good I would pay it again.
The staff was very attentive and easy to work with. The location was perfect for the concert at the YUM center. the layout of the bathroom isn't what I would associate with a high end hotel. It had the feeling of a gym shower. I believe they fell short on the design there. Taking a shower and standing on a wet floor to get dressed is not ideal.
I enjoy staying at A loft properties, Aloft Louisville downtown was the perfect location for attending the Forcastle Waterfront weekend event. Had to make three attempts making coffee to get one cup that did not curdle from the spoiled hotel provided half & half creamers.
Location was great, and the bed was comfy. Bad service at check in, toilet didn't work, sink didn't drain, loud cleaners in the morning, smelled.
Location to fair grounds ! Should not be open for business !!! Construction was every where and the Wifi did not work.
construction going on all the time .. First night alarm went off in the middle of the night . Had to wait outside for about one hour before they let us back in!!! Hard to go back to sleep after that.
Our room was very nice & clean. Frig, microwave & coffee maker. Room was equipped with charger outlets for phones & computers. Free breakfast was good, had a nice selection of food. Staff were all very friendly & helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
Under construction. Tools being used late at night.
The room was nice and comfortable. The construction crew was polite and tried to not be in your way. Because it was being remodeled, there was no pool and you had to search for ice. Put in an exhaust fan, in the bathroom. The mirror fogs up when you take a shower. A discount would have been nice for inconvenience.
Rooms are newly renovated Construction
Yes a Big disappointment. It was under construction, We were not notified of the construction, it was a big inconvenient to get to our room. and it was nosy.
Room was comfortable. Breakfast started at 6 am. Major renovations. This hotel should shut down during this substantial of renovations. If I had seen a picture of it I would have never stayed there.
Location and value. Staff was great. They were also remodeling.
Breakfast variety offered My baby was crawling around our room for about an hour. When I picked him up the top of his foot was black and the knees of his pants were dirty. Also they are in the midst of major renovations.
The building was under major construction (completely gutted with plaster dust in all the hallways and elevator.The breakfast so limited to just wheat,nothing hot,no yogurt etc. There were only about the most 10 quest in all.Then been charged $---a night. there was nothing there was completely gutted out,the lobby only had a new floor, no ceiling. It should not be even open because they had nothing in the building except a few rooms.
Cleanest. Appliances, not hot water, welcome, poor Internet connection.
Nice touches in the room like a lounge blanket for the couch Got chips and salsa, salsa had gone rancid. Brought the salsa back to lobby, was still billed for it
Comfy large room When there were a lot of guests breakfast time was crazy and didn't make sense in some ways.
Excellent breakfast included,! Newspapers and Internet access provided
The staff were extremely helpful and professional The breakfast. Both hot items were eggs with peppers. Many people do not or cannot eat peppers. Just plain eggs would have been better.
Stayed in the double room with pull out sofa. Clean space. Lots of space for us three. The bed sheets were stiff felt overused. The toilet was in the way of the bathroom door and had to push it with force to close.
8 Up is a wonderful place to dine. The weather being nice- the roof top dining & drinks outside was fantastic
Very friendly and helpful staff at reception. 8Up understaffed on weekend nights.
Good location. Not far from the convention center. Rooftop restaurant/bar was decent but overpriced. Wish there was a pool. They had a partnership with the YMCA closeby but that is not convenient for a business trip.
very nice, clean and good staff
Paid $94 including taxes and fees. Great value for the money. Practically spotless rooms. Decent fitness center. Good breakfast. Professional and friendly staff. Were accommodating with late night ride to the airport. A bit more hair in the shower than I would have liked. One of two treadmills was broken. More variety of cereals at breakfast would be nice.
Lost of space in the suite, comfortable king size bed, pillows I liked so well I'm going to buy some, huge shower, fridge and microwave in room, a place to lounge on the couch and relax, location was decent, staff was nice, breakfast was decent The shower could be cleaned better. There was some mold.Rest of the room was perfect. The indoor pool that's was advertised as heated was cold.
I have no complaints about this place. Staff was friendly, check in was fast and rooms were clean.
The hotel staff was friendly, space was clean The AC unit is one for from the bed so every time it would kick on it woke me up, it was extremely loud. We booked this trip to get a full nights rest since we have two young children but it was the worst nights sleep I have gotten in a very long time. Mattress was also very uncomfortable.

Girl Talk: Why I've Never Been Waxed
I am the only woman in NYC who has never gotten waxed. This is a fact. If someone collected statistics, the numbers would definitely confirm it.
You could say I'm a bit of a wild woman. My hair is unpredictable, my nail polish is usually mostly chipped off, I can't do a pantsuit to save my life and I have all sorts of body hair.
I know, I should be ashamed. I once wondered if anyone would ever love me. You'd think not, but actually, I've been married for a year! It doesn't count, though, because he's the hairiest man in the world. He's basically half wildebeest. So he doesn't notice these things. That's the only possible explanation. My friends know how to take care of themselves. Many of them wouldn't dream of having an unkempt vagina or a smattering of leg hair. Some of them have gotten electrolysis. "You should do it! Imagine NEVER having to worry about being a disgusting, hairy animal ever again!" they boast. But most of my friends just go under the wax. That is not an expression. I just feel like it should be.
Why have I never been waxed? I hope this isn't too disappointing, but I don't really have a good reason. It's kind of embarrassing. I should be making some sort of point. Taking some sort of stance. It should probably be political. It isn't.
I have never been waxed because I don't like pain. When I get a paper cut, I think, "Oh my god, NOOO, now this will hurt for like the next three DAYS. It will affect EVERYTHING." When it doesn't affect everything, I am genuinely surprised.
But even more than my aversion to pain and occasional misunderstanding of it, I have never been waxed because I just don't care enough. I don't mind the way I look. The guys I've slept with haven't minded the way I look. Once a dude raised his eyebrows and said, "The last girl I dated was Asian. I guess Jews are a lot hairier than Asians." But I think that was more plain old being-a-jackass than being necessarily opposed to my jungly areas. And he's the only less-than-thrilled case I have to report (notice how I used the word "thrilled," implying that everyone else was thrilled? Yeah. That gives you an idea of my sexual prowess. And it's the right one).
So if I don't mind, and the people who see me naked don't mind, then who cares who minds?
The porn industry would really, really mind, but they never talk to me anyway, so whatever.
And when I think about getting waxed, I always remember a particular moment. This is how it went: It was at a pool party, when I was maybe 15. I was wearing a cute bikini. A woman, maybe in her mid-30s, got into the pool. She swam around for a while, and then she jumped out, over the side, rather than going over to the steps. As she was flinging one leg up onto the pool deck, I got a very clear look at the hair erupting from either side of her swimsuit's crotch. It was reddish brown. I still remember the color exactly.
For a split second, I was horrified. Eww. Gross. Why did I have to see that? What was her problem?
And then I was kind of impressed. I liked that she didn't care enough to shave it off before she got in the pool. I liked that she was confident enough to jump out of the pool without worrying who saw it. I even liked the color. It's just some hair, after all. It's really not that big of a deal. I'm actually not sure how we all learned to be grossed out by it in the first place.
So in her honor, and because I hate pain, and am a wimp, and just don't really care that much, I think I'm gonna keep not getting waxed.
Until the porn industry calls. Then I'll have to give it some serious thought.
That's totally a joke. I would only do realistic, hairy porn. As a political statement.

I still felt like pushing the man's Adam's apple through his medulla oblongata.
So much is to be inferred from the stimulant action of tobacco upon the medulla.
The pith or medulla of the stem and branches of a leguminous tree (a species of Centrolobium) growing in Brazil.
It reduces the librarian to a medulla oblongata, so far as I am able to understand the psychology of the situation.
We chiefly took notice of the medulla Oblongata, this was greatly enlarged, surpassing the usual size by more than one third.
But Toro showed "mucho fuego" before he was so neatly pierced in the medulla.
The hind-brain consists of the usual parts, the medulla oblongata and the cerebellum.
"He is the son of our new neighbor, Mrs. medulla," Bee informed him.
On the right are the two fur-hairs showing the scales and the medulla.
He really is a marvel, and I am sure that Mrs. medulla would like for us to call on them.
hindmost segment of the brain, 1650s, from Latin medulla, literally "marrow," also "pith of plants," of unknown origin, perhaps related to or influenced by medius "middle" (but cf. also Old Irish smiur, Welsh mer "marrow"). The word was used in the Latin senses in Middle English. Related: Medular; medullary.
medulla me·dul·la (mĭ-dŭl'ə)
n. pl. me·dul·las or me·dul·lae (-dŭl'ē)
The inner core of certain organs or body structures, such as the marrow of bone. Also called medullary substance.
Plural medullas or medullae (mĭ-dŭl'ē)

FOOTBALL fans tend to live in the past. We all get misty-eyed for classic matches, former players and past successes.
Rovers fans can certainly be forgiven for this trait, as the future right now does not seem anywhere near as bright as our relatively recent past.
The 1990s brought Premier League success and a new owner, Rovers fan Jack Walker, who ploughed millions into the club to turn its fortunes around.
Even after his death we were able to enjoy relative success in the 2000s, winning the League Cup and punching above our weight in the top flight for a decade.
However, supporters from other clubs will always try to put down your side's past, and in our case we are so often accused of buying success.
One national newspaper carried a heartening piece last week explaining to the masses how Rovers did not 'buy' the title in 1995.
It made for pleasing reading that someone had a long enough memory for them to be able to see sense.
It is true that without the millions pumped in by Uncle Jack, we would probably not have achieved promotion, let alone win the league.
But to claim we bought the title at a time when other clubs were spending millions, often more than us, seems unfair.
Especially when you look at those who really have bought success – Chelsea and Manchester City.
The spending of Jack Walker pales in comparison to those at Stamford Bridge and The Etihad.
The lynchpins of our title success were people like Colin Hendry, Tim Sherwood, Stuart Ripley, Henning Berg, Tony Gale and Mark Atkins.
The transfer fees (if any) paid for each of those was nominal.
Fair enough, we brought in Chris Sutton for £5million, but in the same season Sir Alex Ferguson paid £7million for Andy Cole.
The reason Rovers won the league was that we built an excellent squad with one of the best managers there has ever been.
Meanwhile, I guess I can't completely ignore the fact we had a game on Saturday.
The draw at Blackpool was a good result in what sounded like a pulsating game.
Unfortunately I couldn't see the action as I took the better half to London for a birthday treat.
However, having only taken a point, we are now seven points behind the play-offs and in desperate need of putting a run of wins together if we are to stand any chance of breaking into the top six.

CHEMISTRY, in keeping with our motto "Our students do chemistry as it's done by chemists today," has a well-equipped sequence of laboratory courses that make possible a unique, four-year integrated laboratory experience.
How is the chemistry laboratory program unique?
The first two years of laboratory are devoted to acquiring technical skills and manipulative facility as well as experience in experimental design. The outline of those years below details the projects and the techniques acquired during them.
Project IA: Synthesis of coordination compound that contains a transition metal and halide and organometallic ligands. Techniques: Organizing and keeping a research notebook; using chemical literature to research, design, & complete simple inorganic synthesis. Techniques: weighing and recrystallization.
Project IB: Quantitative analysis of compound from Project IA for % metal, % halide, mole ratio. Techniques: Gravimetric halide and volumetric EDTA metal analysis. Atomic absorption spectroscopy; infrared spectroscopy (optional).
Project IIA: Separation and identification of a mixture of two unknown organic liquids Techniques: Distillation, Gas Chromatography, Proton and Carbon Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, Infrared Spectroscopy
Project IIB: Identification of an unknown solid organic acid Techniques: Melting Point Determination, Determination of pKa and Equivalent Weight by Acid-Base Titration
Project III: Elucidation of the mechanism of hydrolysis using kinetics of a series of substituted benzoate esters and Hammett Linear Free Energy Relationship analysis.
A: Synthesis, recrystallization, and characterization (by MPt, IR,1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR) of a substituted 4-nitrophenyl benzoate ester - includes a literature search of CAS database using SciFinder.
B: Beer's Law determination of Molar Absorptivity of 4-Nitrophenol in pH 10 buffer using a diode array spectrometers. Application of Beer's Law results to the design of an experimental method for kinetics of hydrolysis of esters.
C: Determination of rate constants for substituted 4-nitrophenyl benzoate esters by UV-Vis spectroscopy. Application of Hammett plot to data set collected by entire class to support mechanism or disprove mechanisms.
Project IV: Preparation of a bifunctional organometallic complex; testing of complex as a catalyst for a condenstation reaction.
A: Brief synthesis of Schiff base ligands using lit search to help design experiment. Separation-purification by flash chromatography with characterization by MPt, IR,1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR.
B: Preparation of coordination complex of ligand; Job Plot to determine optimal mole ratio of ligand to metal ion.
C: Evaluation of Metal-Ligand complex as catalyst of condensation reaction with analysis of results by GC/MS of product mixtures.
Junior and senior chemistry majors enroll in successive semesters in Advanced Laboratory: Chemistry 351, 352, 451, and 452. Each of these laboratory courses meets two afternoons per week for a semester. During each course the student focuses his attention on a single semester-long project. In the total four- semester sequence a student generally collaborates with each member of the department for a semester. During a typical project, the student completes a literature search as the basis for a written project proposal, meets weekly with his collaborating professor to discuss the progress of his work, presents at least one research seminar, and completes a formal technical report of his investigations. Thus, by the time of graduation, each chemistry major has completed four extended projects in the various fields of chemistry. Projects involve advanced synthetic techniques in biochemistry and in organic and inorganic chemistry, chemical analysis and structure determination by instrumental methods, computer acquisition and reduction of data, and instrumental development and evaluation. The levels of projects are adjusted for the background of each student and, over the two-year period of Advanced Laboratory experience, projects are selected to give the student a background as wide as, if not wider than, the conventional laboratories operated at other institutions.
The success of the laboratory program is dependent on three factors: First, the laboratory is carefully controlled: In addition to nominal supervision while he works, the student has a weekly 30 minute "research" conference with the professor in charge of his project. To that conference the student brings a brief written research report that recounts his work of the previous week, evaluates the significance of the work in relation to his overall project, and plans his work for the forthcoming week. His report is examined, his progress is discussed and compared with his previous plan of action, and that plan is reviewed and revised as necessary. Second, the student has received attitudinal and technical preparation from the introductory laboratories. When he enters Advanced Lab, he has used VPC, IR, and NMR as routine tools in pursuing earlier projects. He has synthesized several organic and coordination com- pounds, and has characterized them with the spectral techniques mentioned above; he has repeatedly used both the primary and secondary literature and has written journal-style reports. Most important, he has been induced to think for himself: to find relevant literature, to design experiments, to carry these out (and repeat them if necessary), and to cope with unexpected results. Third, the program works because the projects are tailored to suit the student's needs, interests, abilities, and background, and because the students find the projects interesting. This last point is crucial: there are few problems of motivation when laboratory work closely approximates real chemistry, done as a real chemist would do it, using the most modern techniques.
The program as outlined above is challenging for undergraduates. That it is successful is evidenced by the number and quality of chemistry majors and by the success of recent graduates (over 80% of whom have gone on to graduate or professional school).

What Works:
This is gorgeous, touching advertising of the type that wins awards. It is empowering and uplifting. The execution in TV and print spots is precise and beautiful.
What Doesn't:
Unfortunately, this campaign does absolutely nothing for the brand. First, the proposition is hazy. "Microsoft powers your passion" - something like that. Nobody can argue that Microsoft powers nearly everything - but are we happy about it? Or do we have the sense of a large company giving us things we don't really need (like Word getting more complex and slower) and exposing us to dangers (virus, hackers, worms, etc.) and generally stifling innovation.
I am not suggesting that this is the true Microsoft. Some of the coolest people I know work there. But starting from the proposition that the mega-brand Microsoft is behind our potential is arguing with the consumer (who doesn't believe this right now) - and good brands do not argue with the consumer.
There is another Microsoft - an innovator, a company willing to take big risks on the future. But we don't see that Microsoft in this campaign. Instead, we get The Truman Show - a vision of an idealized world that Microsoft would like us to live in which just reminds us more why we think they are Big Brother.
It doesn't have to be this way. I'll give you a great example of where Microsoft has gotten it right. Look at X-Box. The following they have built for that machine is among the most hardcore, geekiest, down-and-dirty real gamers. Exactly the people who in other walks of life hate them and use Macs. But Microsoft presented a clean proposition there - a better system dedicated to real gamers. And they actually used their hard-core enthusiasts to tailor this campaign (one of our trainers is the VP of Marketing for EB Games and has seen the X-Box group at work).
The rest of the boys in Redmond could take a lesson from this. Don't be broad and vague and dreamy. Show me a vision of the future that is specific and believable. Commit to something that will improve my life. Make the promise. Then fulfill it. Then perhaps I'll start believing that you support my vision.
DISCLAIMER: Although I think Mac's are great I don't own a single one. I am a Microsoft user.
Branding Bottom Line -
Only reminds us what we don't like about the brand. Can it.

Posted on Nov 17th by Gardens admin in Blake Shelton,
The country star boasts two No. 1 hits, three charted albums, his first ACM, CMA and CMT Award wins and an induction into the Grand Ole Opry
Shelton is currently nominated for two ACA Awards
Nashville, TN – (November 17th, 2010) – Warner/Reprise Recording artist Blake Shelton has been on fire this year with the New York Times naming him as one of the "most versatile of contemporary country singers." This year alone, Shelton has been crowned CMA's "Male Vocalist of the Year" as well as receiving his first ACM, CMA and CMT Awards for his No. 1 smash hit "Hillbilly Bone" with longtime friend Trace Adkins and in a career highlight, was recently inducted into the Grand Ole Opry. With his latest release LOADED: The Best of Blake Shelton debuting in the Top 10 on the Country Charts this week, Shelton joins the elite group of artists who have charted three records in one year – among those are Garth Brooks, Kenny Chesney and Alan Jackson.
"I thanked these folks last week at the CMA Awards but I want to thank them again. Brandon, Narvel and Reba, thank you for believing in me. I love you guys," Shelton said. "Warner Music Nashville, thank you for continually pushing me to be the best artist I can be and never giving up. Country radio, thank you for backing me year after year. Even without all these accolades, you had my back. Thank you!"
Shelton adds, "This has been the best year of my life. I would have been excited just to have one of these things happen to me but to have them all happen in the same year -- words cannot describe how I feel. It is truly a humbling experience. I am going to have to write Santa a letter and make sure he knows he doesn't need to send me anything this year - my blessings are plenty."
Shelton has released three albums this year with Hillbilly Bone, All About Tonight and his first ever greatest hits album, LOADED: The Best of Blake Shelton available everywhere now. LOADED: The Best of Blake Shelton includes a limited edition of the album with an exclusive LOADED t-shirt available at Wal-Mart.
Other highlights from Shelton this year include co-hosting the Today Show with Hoda Kotb, visiting the set of E!'s Chelsea Lately twice and performing on Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Shelton also premiered his first television concert special on GAC titled, "Blake Shelton Live: It's All About Tonight" and kicked-off his first ever headlining tour hitting major cities such as Los Angeles, Phoenix and San Francisco. Recently, BlakeShelton.com released over 35 never-before seen videos to BS fans.
Shelton is currently nominated for two ACA Awards for "Music Video of the Year" and "Music Video: Male" for his hit single, "Hillbilly Bone." The first annual ACA Awards will air live from The MGM Grand in Las Vegas on Monday, Dec. 6 at 8:00 PM (ET).

text: Hi Steve, My PhD research is about search engines. To my knowledge, there is not yet an in-depth history of Google or the industry as a whole (next chapter), but here are some references you may find helpful: http://battellemedia.com/- John Battelle, former editor of Wired Magazine, is writing a book and blogs his research to date. He isn't talking so much about the business structure, but there are lots of Google anecdotes. Also, I wrote a paper that covers the industrial dynamics of the industry, still waiting for word back from the journal I submitted to, but here's the draft I presented at the IAMCR last year (and also in modified form at AoIR): http://personal.lse.ac.uk/vancouve/research.htm (under the 'conferences' section). This talks about who the major players are, what their revenue streams are, how advertising on search differs from other media advertising and how it is the same, and whether the current level of search provision serves the public good. The analysis is derived primarily from financial statements supplemented by interviews I've done with search engine engineers, search engine optimisers, and search distributors. I have loads of other references if you want to follow up other aspects.

"The Essay" by Robin Yocum has been selected as the featured read of the One Book One Community program for 2013-14, according to the organization's executive committee.
The book's setting is southeastern Ohio, where Jimmy Lee Hickam, whose upbringing leaves a lot to be desired, tries to rise above his dysfunctional family by using his writing talents and football prowess to escape his environment.
When Jimmy Lee wins the school essay writing contest, there are no accolades. In fact, it creates nothing but resentment and doubt. No one believes this 17-year-old, wrong-side-of-the-tracks kid is capable of creating such a paper.
When the school attempts to strip him of the award, his English teacher risks her job to stand up for him, showing him a path away from the cycle of poverty and alcoholism that has defined his family for years.
"The Essay" was selected among dozens of books that were nominated by members of the Alliance community, according to Pat Stone, director of Rodman Public Library, who chairs the committee.
"This is the 11th year of One Book One Community in the Alliance area, and it doesn't get any easier to select a book with broad appeal and dovetailing the selection with the availability of the author," Stone said. "With 'The Essay' we have a book that will have broad appeal and lead to meaningful programming and discussions, plus the author is an Ohioan."
Stone said the programming leading to the author's appearance will begin at 7 p.m. Jan. 21 when local educator Joann Jones reviews "The Essay" in the auditorium of Rodman Public Library. Further programming is still being determined, according to Stone.
Yocum has committed to appearing in Alliance at 7 p.m. March 20 at the Firehouse Theater. He will also visit area high schools the following day.
He is the president of Yocum Communications, a public relations and marketing firm in Westerville. He is well known for his work as a crime and investigative reporter with The Columbus Dispatch from 1980 to 1991 and was the recipient of 30 local, state and national journalism awards in categories ranging from investigative reporting to feature writing.
He holds a bachelor's degree in journalism from Bowling Green State University.
The selected books for the past 10 years for the Alliance area have been "The Color of Water" by James McBride, "Riding the Bus with My Sister" by Rachel Simon, "Real Time" by Pnina Moed-Kass, "Beyond the River" by Ann Hagedorn, "Plenty" by Alisa Smith and J.B. MacKinnon, "Blood Done Sign My Name" by Timothy Tyson, "Three Cups of Tea" by Greg Mortenson, "Make the Impossible Possible" by Bill Strickland, "One Amazing Thing" by Chitra Divakaruni and "Thunder Dog" by Michael Hingson.
"We would not have the opportunity to bring the author to Alliance if not for the resources provided by our partners, including Rodman Public Library, the University of Mount Union, the Greater Alliance Foundation and The Review," Stone said. "We are also pleased to report that a number of teachers in area schools have committed to teaching from the book."
"The Essay," as well as Yocum's other popular title "Favorite Sons," are available at the University of Mount Union bookstore and Rodman Public Library. The cost of each book is $12.
Several copies also will be available for checkout at Rodman Public Library and the University of Mount Union library.

A 47-YEAR-OLD man has been jailed for a "depraved and corrupt" act in which he performed a sex act on a bus in front of a schoolgirl.
Clement Kumah was jailed for 27 months after he was caught in the act on a No 36 bus in Bolton on December 31, 2012.
Kumah was found guilty on Thursday at Bolton Crown Court of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child, despite his claims the man in the CCTV was not him.
He fabricated a story that he was working at an office computer at the time and claimed he was a victim of mistaken identity.
Kumah was caught after an anonymous caller identified him from an appeal in The Bolton News.
As well as jailing him, Judge Peter Davies made Kumah the subject of a sexual prevention order for 10 years, saying that this and his previous convictions for two offences of indecent assault against women in 1996 make him a "serious risk of harm".
The victim, now aged 16, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was a passenger on the bus from Bolton to Little Hulton when she was approached by Kumah on the top deck.
Judge Davies said: "You engaged in sexual activity in front of a 15-year-old girl. Anybody who saw the DVD will clearly see she is a young and vulnerable teenager.
"You followed her, she was sat on the top deck of the bus. You sat down across the aisle and exposed yourself.
"You kept staring at her and asked if she liked it. She was dumbfounded.
"It was depraved, it was corrupt. She was horrified and ran downstairs and sought comfort from a fellow female passenger. You alighted and made your way home.
"The identification evidence was compelling. You forged computer documents in a bid to deceive the jury, saying that you were working on an office computer.

Washington, DC -- The head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced today that President Bush has declared a major disaster for Tennessee, opening the way for the use of federal disaster funds to help meet the recovery needs of people and communities plagued by recent storms and floods.
FEMA Director Joe M. Allbaugh said the President took the action following a review of the agency's analysis of the state's request for federal assistance. The declaration covers damage to private and public property from severe storms and flooding that occurred over the periods of January 23-28 and March 15-20.
After the declaration, Allbaugh designated the following counties eligible for aid to stricken residents and business owners: Bledsoe, Blount, Claiborne, Cocke, Hancock, Hawkins, Loudon and Sevier.
The assistance, to be coordinated by FEMA, can include grants to help pay for temporary housing, emergency home repairs and other serious disaster?related expenses. Low?interest loans from the U.S. Small Business Administration also will be available to cover residential and business losses not fully compensated by insurance.
In addition, Allbaugh said federal funds will be provided for the state and affected local governments to pay 75 percent of the eligible cost for debris removal, emergency services related to the disaster, and repairing or replacing damaged public facilities, such as roads, bridges and utilities.
The counties eligible for this assistance include Bledsoe, Blount, Cannon, Claiborne, Clay, Cocke, Cumberland, Decatur, Dekalb, Fentress, Giles, Grainger, Hancock, Hardin, Hawkins, Jackson, Lauderdale, Lawrence, Lewis, Lincoln, Loudon, McNairy, Macon, Marshall, Maury, Meigs, Roane, Scott, Sevier, Van Buren, Warren and Wayne.
Allbaugh said the declaration also makes federal funds available to the state on a cost-shared basis for approved projects that reduce future disaster risks. He indicated that additional counties may be designated for aid later if requested by the state and warranted by the results of further damage assessments.
Charles M. Butler of FEMA was named by Allbaugh to coordinate the federal assistance. Butler said those who sustained losses in the counties designated for aid to affected residents and business owners can begin the disaster application process by calling 1-800-621-FEMA (3362), or 1-800-462-7585 (TTY) for the hearing and speech impaired. The toll?free telephone numbers will be available starting Saturday, April 6, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. seven days a week until further notice.

Pundits are still analyzing Mitt Romney's comment from earlier this week that President Obama won reelection because of policy "gifts" to students, minorities and women. Republicans spent a fortune trying to redefine one of the country's wealthiest Americans as someone who could relate to -- and more importantly, care about -- Americans who don't have car elevators, houses galore and dressage horses.
Watching Mitt Romney struggle with keeping his spoiled, out-of-touch rich guy persona from rearing its perfectly-coiffed head during the campaign was like watching Romney's best Gollum impression. However, with the election over, Romney, as one pundit below notes, has decided to join the "sore losers club," and is removing all doubt about the sincerity of his everyman pitch along the way:
Romney cements his legacy as poster boy for the spoiled and callous rich

Students of Sermons studies need not worry about paying for over-priced textbooks anymore – renting textbooks is an option! Sermons textbooks – for example Miracles (Cs Lewis Signature Classic) by [C. S. Lewis], and Execution Sermons (Library of American Puritan Writings) by [A M S Press, Incorporated] – are often some of the most frequently updated books by Publishing companies. The field of Sermons is constantly changing, and new editions can come yearly and at a huge cost to students who continually buy new books. So why buy when you can rent cheap textbooks? There are plenty of Sermons books to rent – BookRenter has of them all!
Used book sales can be a cheap option as well, but often can be more expensive than textbook rentals. However, there are very few return policies with used books, and especially when taking Sermons classes, buying a used book can be dangerous and costly.
