Here's the way to get to Atlantic City:
Pick up the phone, dial a few numbers, and tell the person at the other end of the line you were thinking about making a trip. Within an hour, a jet is scrambled and crews rush to pick you up, flying you to Atlantic City International Airport in comfort and style. When you're finished, that night or whenever, the casino jets you back home.
For most people, this sort of travel is a dream. But for a handful of top players, it is a way of life.
Atlantic City's casinos have long treated their top players far differently than other gamblers. The gaming halls cater to the whims of their high-rollers, getting them the best food, tickets to the best shows and keys to the swankiest accommodations. They also get the best travel, including chauffeured jet service to and from Atlantic City.
While some of the gambling halls have cut back on the travel options, one casino — Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa — owns a pair of jets used to shuttle patrons along the East Coast. Federal Aviation Administration records show Borgata owns two British Aerospace 125s, now sold as Hawker 800s, that have the option of seating about a dozen people and have the ability to travel at a cruising speed of 463 mph, reaching 41,000 feet.
The planes, distinguished by stripes and Borgata's capital B painted on the tail in purple, can travel between 2,359 and 3,145 miles without refueling, according to The Handbook of Business Aviation.
Joe Lupo, Borgata's senior vice president of operations, confirmed that the casino owns the jets and keeps the pilots on staff, but would not make the pilots available for interviews, allow access to the planes or even disclose many details of the planes themselves.
Records show the planes typically stay close to Atlantic City, according to FlightAware, a flight-tracking website. Between Aug. 12 and Dec. 12, one plane took off 170 times, but averaged just 36 minutes per flight. The other plane took off 115 times, with an average 43-minute flight. Many of the trips are apparently multileg jaunts, with the website's records tracking the separate legs of the journey as individual trips.
The records also show the planes were flown mostly along the East Coast. They stopped in New York City-area airports 63 times during that time period, including 28 visits to Teterboro Airport, a popular Bergen County hub for corporate jets. It's a time saver: A flight from Teterboro to Atlantic City averaged about 21 minutes, compared with about a two-hour drive covering the same ground.
Borgata jets also made 24 visits to Washington Dulles International Airport outside Washington, D.C.; five stops at Trenton-Mercer Airport in Ewing Township, Mercer County; four trips to Raleigh County Memorial Airport in Beckley, W.Va.; and two excursions to Philadelphia International Airport.
The jets can travel far, twice flying to Toronto Pearson International Airport, and on Sept. 17 taking a jaunt to John Wayne Airport in Orange County, Calif., stopping briefly both ways in Salina Municipal Airport in Salina, Kan.
Tropicana Casino and Resort also offers high-end charter flights to certain select players, said Eric Fiocco, vice president of marketing. Fiocco said the casino bet heavily on the high-limit table games market, and many of the top players prefer to fly privately.
Tropicana does not own airplanes, Fiocco said, but its VIP staff works with outside contractors across the country, largely on the East Coast, to bring in players.
The players typically fly on six- to 12-seat, small-to-midsized Lear jets, although for larger parties they can arrange a bigger jet, such as a Gulfstream, Fiocco said. There are typically televisions on flights and a stewardess on board the larger planes.
"The best amenity is it is private." Fiocco said. "You're getting right to the plane and to your destination without having to go through security screenings." And when the plane arrives, a car awaits to take the customer straight to the casino, he said.
All this can be done quickly. With sometimes as little as an hour's notice, the casino can arrange for a jet and get a high-roller headed to the resort.
Fiocco would not say how much the casino pays for this service, nor would he allow the customers to be interviewed.
"These people are such high-visibility people they would not want to be quoted," Fiocco said.
TWC Aviation, based in San Jose, Calif., is one of about a half-dozen aviation companies approved by New Jersey regulators to do business with the casinos. The company trades on convenience, company Vice President Scott Cutshall said.
"You don't have to get to the airport two hours before the flight, you don't have to go through secondary screening, you don't have to wait to pick up a rental car or wait for your bags," Cutshall said.
Most companies rent the planes by the hour, Cutshall said, with smaller planes such as the four-seater Cessna Citation Mustang costing between $1,700 and $1,800 per hour. Larger jets, such as as a Boeing Business Jet — essentially a 737 reconfigured for luxury accommodations — run between $10,000 and $15,000 per hour.
A number of other companies also handle flights for the casinos, treating customers to the convenience of jet travel in hopes of separating the players from their wallets.
The largest charter company in the region is Margate's Gold Transportation, a company incorporated in 1982 to provide air transportation services to the nascent casino industry. The company, like other public charter companies, arranges air transportation for groups of passengers through set air carriers.
On its website, the privately held company said it has arranged more than 1,500 flights for its customers, with 95 percent of the flights for Atlantic City properties. The company also claimed more than 200,000 tourists arrive and depart on Gold flights.
One of its programs is arranging flights for Harrah's Entertainment's Total Rewards programs. Harrah's lists 69 cities in 22 states, two Canadian provinces and Washington, D.C., that Gold Transportation arranges flights to, through agreements with Sky King, of Los Angeles, and the now-defunct Pace Airlines.
FAA records show that in 2011, Gold Transportation used Sky King for Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino, Harrah's Resort, Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort, Trump Marina Hotel and Casino, and Caesars Atlantic City. In the filings, Gold said the seats were engaged for $100 apiece, with casino accommodations included.
Through Sky King, Gold Transportation arranged more than 425 flights, using a 120-seat Boeing 737-200. But with 30 to 45 people per flight, this means the plane typically took off with a largely empty passenger compartment, giving passengers plenty of space to move around in.
Gold also scheduled 31 flights with Falcon Air of Doral, Fla., for Trump Plaza, Trump Taj Mahal and Harrah's, according to FAA filings, and four flights with Cleveland's Charter Air Transport for the Golden Nugget and Trump properties.
Tim Smith, vice president of Gold Transportation, said confidentiality clauses in the firm's contracts kept it from commenting. Trump officials declined comment, while Harrah's officials said they were barred from public comments on the firm by federal Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. Sky King officials also did not return requests for comment.

My grandaughter has learned so much in such a short time with so many dedicated teachers helping with fun but serious way that it's such a desire to come everyday. Thank you everyone.
Hailey absolutely loves coming to mathnasium! She is using her strategies that she has learned from Mathnasium in math class and her self confidence is growing!! We are very happy!!
Gabe ha been overcoming his fear about math and also imporoving a lot at school
Finding a math tutor was very difficult especially for high school math.
Mathnasium has worked out great with the weekly help we were looking for!
We started with mathnasium to fill the gaps on my daughter's learning process, from 3rd to 4th grade. The method is efficient and made a big difference. Now my daughter is a math enthusiastic and is doing wonderful in school. We couldn't be more satisfied!
My daughter leaves feeling confident and excited about math.
Nicole is very understanding.
It has been only a few times that my son went to Mathnasium . He already likes it so much and he likes to go . He says the teachers are very well qualified and teach him smart tricks . Thanks for everything
I liked that my son had 1 on 1 attention during the session.
They are doing a great job with my daughter I couldn't be more happier thank you so much I was struggling with teaching her and they have helped me a lot
My boys were not at all on board with math tutoring. They are now learning things they should have learned last year and they are seeing the benefit of working with Mathnaseum. They have enjoyed all of the tutors.
Mathnasium is a place where positive learning takes place. My daughter has developed more confidence in math but other subjects as well. The people are friendly and teach the material is a way that I remember.
I loved it. It seemed to help my son and he is not one to easily accept help and he went with out much pushing after the second time. He has a B in math and last year he had a C/D average. Than you Mathnasium!
Alex really enjoys going there and I can see his confidence is building. He talks about Mathnasium with his friends at school and he also tells them how much she enjoys it. I am expecting his math grades to turn around dramatically so I am really looking forward to this upcoming report card. So I can honestly say so far so good.
Areal confidence builder was using your program over the summer. Fundamentals are the key!! Thank you!!!
My kids LOVE coming to Mathnasium, but it's a bit too soon to see results. Looking forward to them though!!
Not only are they helping my daughter with her skills, they are helping her with her self esteem. Thank you
It has been a wonderful experience so far! My son actually looks forward to going, which is the opposite of his reaction to Math last year ;) thank you for taking the time to listen to our concerns and focusing on those during his lessons.
Estoy muy satisfecha con el gran progreso que ha tenido mi hijo desde que está en este programa. Muchas gracias!
I love the one on one attention my son gets.

The voice of the turtle
For some reason Janis Joplin has generally left me unimpressed: maybe just too far over the top stylistically to appeal. But I heard this one back in my teens and I've loved it ever since. Go figure. Maybe it's the simplicity of the arrangement, or the fact that it's more blues than Janis. Whatever - a great song.

Marshawn Lynch shared his thoughts on Colin Kaepernick's National Anthem protest during an episode of Conan on Tuesday night.
Conan asked the former NFL star what he thinks about Kaepernick's protests, and Lynch provided a short but strong take on the situation and showed his support for the 49ers quarterback in the process.
"With what's going on, I'd rather see him take a knee than stand up, put his hands up, and get murdered," Lynch said. "So I mean, my take on it is shit gotta start somewhere, and if that was the starting point, I just hope people open up their eyes to see that it's really a problem going on and something needs to be done for it to stop. And I mean, if you really not racist, then you won't see what he's doing as a threat to America, but just addressing a problem that we have."
Lynch comments came just hours after Kaepernick revealed that he has received death threats for choosing to take a knee.

I don't think he choked. He always steps up under pressure. He's dominated for the last 12 years and has been a celebrity for a long time... The problem is that young bucks are catching up. He used to be so far ahead of everyone, but they've closed the gap.
He's no the man in slope style anymore and hasn't been for a while. That's why he didn't do it.
Did Kelly choke this year because he didn't win?

Kelly was robbed by the judges who bought into all the Mick hoopla. Ha ha ha! You are probably right, nynj, abooot (where is PJB? ) the young guns making it harder to stay on top. Same with Tiger in golf. It just amazes my to see Kelly dominate for so many years with all the new talent nipping at his heels. And he did win the Volcom Pipe finals, yo'!

Julia Mancuso- somewhat attractive I guess, seems like a 'winner'; the femme-super athlete doesn't do much for me though.
Salt, maybe you're attracted to the masculine body shape? Hey, to each it's own. Does it bother your eyes, staring at a bright screen in the dark, typing from the closet?

The Virginia General Assembly on Friday approved a bill [HB 815 materials] that will allow for the implementation of the electric chair if lethal injection drugs are not readily available.
Virginia has faced issues with obtaining lethal injection drugs as some pharmaceutical companies have declined to supply the necessary materials.
According to the new bill, the Virginia Department of Corrections must make "reasonable efforts" to obtain lethal injection materials before utilizing the electric chair.
The bill will now be sent to Governor Terry McAuliffe desk to be signed or vetoed.
Currently, Virgina has 7 inmates on death row.
Capital punishment remains a controversial issue in the US and worldwide.
In February the US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit rejected a Georgia death row inmate's legal challenge to the death penalty. In January Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood stated that he plans to ask lawmakers to approve the firing squad, electrocution or nitrogen gas as alternate methods of execution if the state prohibits lethal injection.
The US Supreme Court in January ruled in Kansas v. Carr that a jury in a death penalty case does not need to be advised that mitigating factors, which can lessen the severity of a criminal act, do not need to be proven beyond a reasonable doubt like aggravating factors.

It's not uncommon to find large bustling churches where you can feel a lack of unity. In fact, sometimes the room feels unfriendly and divisive with little cliques that are impossible to break into. We'll evaluate the cause and cure for disunity on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg! More
Man and Woman in Biblical Perspective (Part 4 of 4)
In First Corinthians, we read that, "Every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head." Was this command relevant for the ancient church alone, or does it carry weight for us still? We'll address that question on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg! More
Man and Woman in Biblical Perspective (Part 3 of 4)
In First Corinthians, Paul instructs men not to wear head coverings in church, and he tells women that they ought to cover their heads. What's the purpose of those head coverings, and how do those commands apply to us today? We'll answer those questions on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg. More
Obedience: Evidence of a Strong Foundation (Part 1 of 2)
Many people think that they're saved because they attend church. But, as the saying goes, "Just because you're in the garage … doesn't mean you're a car!" On Truth For life with Alistair Begg, we'll be challenged to evaluate whether or not we're truly following Christ. More

Taylor Swift, Fearless
* * * (out of four) SWIFT UNSPIFFED
For the past decade, the term singer/songwriter has been liberally applied to hot young artists who rely on more experienced collaborators to hone their tunes, and to provide the savvy production that usually upstages the melody and lyrics anyway. But Swift cut her creative teeth in Nashville, where storytelling still matters; and for her sophomore album, Fearless, she wrote more than half the songs independently, and clearly had a big hand in the rest.

You just can't fake the kind of innocence and wonder that ring through the glowing title track and the moonstruck single Love Story, or the guileless urgency and unmannered precociousness marking more bittersweet songs such as Fifteen and White Horse.
Swift's grainy-sweet vocals have a similar freshness, even on the less memorable cuts. It's a pleasure to hear a gifted teenager who sounds like a gifted teenager, rather than a mouthpiece for a bunch of older pros' collective notion of adolescent yearning. — Elysa Gardner

no atmosphere but some nice drinks
kermis (506) The Hague / Amsterdam , Netherlands | June 6, 2011
Massive place and mostly quiet when I was there, the German theme is great, particularly with the over-the-top back section done up like a traditional German villiage where each booth is a little house. Worth popping in just for that even though the beer is not great (They're dark beer seemed the best). And then there's the pirate ship and pirate to great you as you come in. It's silly harmless fun.
Tim Webb (496) Bristol, England | April 10, 2011
What a story of missed potential! A perfectly adequate, large, 'Austrian-style' brewpub making beers in all the right colours to an acceptable standard but none of them shine. This is the only brewpub in Estonia but seems to choose not to enthuse. Its downstairs restauarant has a pirate theme - why on earth would you do that unless you had lost the plot?
RedhawkFIN (12) , Finland | October 10, 2010
A brewpub/restaurant in the Tallinn Old Town. Modelled after Bavarian pubs with stuff sporting typical Southern Germany traditional apprell (although girls dresses seemed quite shorter). Selection mostly their own beers (which all taste a bit too similiar). Food also German-like. A place for tourists really.
Marko (285) Split / Zagreb, Croatia | April 24, 2010
On a street right off of the Raekoja plats (Town Hall Square). Huge place, decorated completely in some Bavarian/German style (but couldn't shake the feeling that they were just trying too hard), waiters dressed ,as the others have said, to match too. The music is really funny too. The three of us didn't eat (having been filled up by the pancakes at the Kompressor which is quite close) but after one finally arrived, we ordered the sampler (they didn't try to sell us BH Premium so I guess someone told them to cut it out). Amazing how many varieties on a theme they pulled off and they don't even taste all that different (apart from the nice Dunkles Extra). Too expensive (more akin to Finnish prices than it has any right to be) but hey, it's the only brewpub in town and you'll want to visit it for that. And if I remember correctly, you get to steal wifi from across the street.
Russo (31) Hemhofen, Germany | January 6, 2010
I loved this place, this bring me back the Brazilian Oktoberfest, with German music versions, Bavarian style, the whole place is cool. I ask for the 7 sampler beers which comes in 7 glass with 7 different beer at 20 Euro. Not cheap, but worth than miss it. Also they have Chiffon and bottles to take to home. The food was amazing, delicious. I was there at Happy hour time and believe it is between 12:00 to 14:00 and I got a nice discount for that. I recommend a lot to go to this place harder if you never been at a Bavarian Brewery or Fest.
drpimento (156) La Crosse, Wisconsin | July 12, 2009
Went here in the mid-afternoon. There were some people sitting outside on their patio by the street, a few folks inside, and a few in their interior beer garden. Service was so-so. Got seated at a big picnic style table with one of those built in taps at the end for busy nights. Place is huge. Staff are all in ethnic costume. I got a photo of my server girl. She told me she wasn't supposed to allow it and stepped behind a collumn to pose. Lots of breweriana and gleaming metalwork for the brewhouse and associated equipment. Food was ok, but my appetizer of pig's ears was very greasy and all was fairly expensive. Beers were not that great although the pils wasn't too bad. Ok to go for the experience of local micro beer craft and breweriana. Other than that there are other bars with better beer.
gnoff (657) Mölndal, Sweden | April 13, 2009
Visited on April 10 with FatPhil (and Anna) and SaintMatty and again on April 11 by myself, 2009. First night I ate the Hock, which fills you up nicely. Also first night I asked for the ampler tray, which wasn't available, they really pushed the BH Premium as the beer to have, so I tried that one. Also tried the Medovar from Phil and the Dunkles Extra from Matt. Second night I didn't eat, but had the four remaining beers by myself. They had some live music as well as dancing going on, not really a peaceful environment if that's what you're after. Oh yeah, they really tried to sell me the BH Premium again, guess because it's the most expensive one? It's pricey and touristy, but I think still well worth it since the beers are rather nice. Service could be better though, or at least not so "selling".
TimE (341) Tokyo, Japan | September 25, 2008
This place blows. My parents were annoyed by the super kitchy german music that blares from speakers onto the street and I was not looking forward to going in the place. Prices were sky high, beer was crap. Atmosphere was crap and service was mediocre at best. Plus all beers were only in 500ml or bigger, which did not make it ideal for sampling. They had a sampler tray for about $30. You gotta be joking me! Get in and out as fast as possible is my recommendation.
Nekronos (157) Xalapa, Mexico | August 20, 2008
too expensive, I understand it's a touristic place but this was too much. The food was good and the beer is nice. As in LAtvia they take ages to service you.
spporras (21) , Finland | May 26, 2008
Beer House is located in the old town of Tallinn. In May 2008, this German style large brewpub offered 7 house beers. Even though the brewers could use a bit more imagination considering the beer styles they brew, the quality of the products is above average among Estonian breweries. I found the way some waiters/waitresses have dressed a bit corny but, if the traditional German style is preferred, who am I to disagree :-) I have visited the place twice and on both occasions the food was good. I recall that during my first visit in Summer of 2005 the service was pretty rough but this year it was much better - in fact the waiters were very friendly. Beer House is a touristic place but, unfortunately, there is no competition in this field in Tallinn. So if you happen to be around, don't hesitate to pop in.

Hello All,
I noticed there was a post about this a few years ago but it didn't receive much feedback, and I wanted to see if there are any new ideas anyone can provide.
I'm going to be a junior in college and I am going to be living in a single room, that is, it will be my own room, and it is actually a decent sized room. It is big enough that in addition to the college-provided desk and bed, I will have enough room for a futon/couch and my fridge/microwave, etc. I'm trying to break out of what seems to be the norm these days: bright green blue colors that you might find at target or walmart.
What I want to get some opinions on is, given a blank, neutral room in a dorm built in the 70s (not a charming building), how can a man decorate to give the room a warmer, more old-school look. Specifically, I'm someone who enjoys a knotted-pine, lodge- or cabin-like interior, something you'd find in the woods of Maine or the like. Now, obviously, this is a college dorm. I'm not going to line the walls with pine siding, nor am I going to buy a new desk just because it looks good. The decorations I already own that I am planning on putting on my wall are mostly maps, specifically USGS topographic maps of certain towns/mountains/lakes that are important to me, as well as some old posters published by the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. One of them can be seen below, as an example.
So I pretty much have wall decorations covered, but that doesn't mean I can't put more stuff up. I am going to have room for a futon or a couch, but it seems like every affordable couch or futon you see these days is some bright green contemporary model or some uncomfortable jet black thing with a skinny metal frame. Keeping in mind that I'm a student without a ton of money, is there any way to get a classy-looking couch or futon, should I skip that altogether or should I maybe try to build one?
My ultimate goal is to be able to walk into my room, or have someone else walk into my room, and feel like I walked into an old den or a lodge living room or something like that. I'll admit that is ambitious but if anyone can provide any suggestions, I would be very grateful.

What are you allowed to do? Are you allowed to paint, wallpaper, hang curtains, or whatever? Or must everything be free standing?
Christopher Lowell (interior decorator) did a special on decorating teenage and college rooms. Though his examples lean more towards the modern, a lot of the ideas are quite creative and might be useful for your project. He's big on using hollow-core doors.
To specify, I the following are things that I cannot do:
My senior year apartment I shared with three other girls was like this:
trashpicked comfy furniture covered with fur pelts
walls painted in dark Victorian colors
lots of thrift store taxidermy
framed pressed leaf collections trash picked from my dept. at school
old maps
stuff from my grandmother's house
It came out looking very homely in an Adam's Family kind of way, and our place got a reputation as fun place to hang, drink coffee and smoke.
If you have some extra shelf space, consider growing a couple of small plants. Of course you couldn't do anything that would be large or require any significant amount of upkeep, but if you could find something green and leafy, I feel it would be a good fit. A coworker of mine grew his own alfalfa sprouts in mason jars for awhile, might be an interesting hobby to look into. I had kinda viney plant in my dorm room that just grew in water. Unfortunately, I have no idea what it was called. Maybe someone who is more botanically oriented around here would have better suggestions.
The problem is even if you buy real wood, a wooden cabin interior inside an ugly modern building just sticks out like a sore thumb, so obviously unreal and artificial. I recommend being authentic. It's a dorm room. Be okay with it looking like a dorm room - the dorm room of a man who likes the outdoors, so posters and all that are perfectly great and I would also recommend aged bookshelves, but beyond that, not really trying to fake a cabin.
Well, for a start, there are futon covers that aren't green or blue. The mattress store may carry them, I know Target did at least as of a couple of yeas ago. The no paint rule may be a bit flexible. Eons ago, when I lived in a college dorm, one could paint the walls, providing you repainted them the original color at the end of the academic year. Ask. Sometimes you'll luck out, like I did, and a fairly neutral paint job (in good shape) will be OK'd to leave.
I wouldn't put too much emphasis on making a dorm room especially "homey". It's temporary quarters, and your best decorating options might turn out to be nothing more sophisticated than your topo maps and a couple of "North Woods" styled throws for the bed & the couch.
