"Great Location"
It served us well for a shopping trip to freeport.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"good room, reasonable rates"
Great location and good rates. Don't spend much time in the room, so perfectly adequate - quiet and comfortable bed ! We were not up early enough to get to breakfast offered, but many great spots to eat close to the hotel. Would stay there again.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"great location"
the hotel was old but clean. As a house cleaner I appreciate that the crew took pain staking efforts to make an old area clean. They do need to upgrade the heating unit as it is noisy but what hotel doesn't need to fix that? The beds were very comfortable, but they could do with an actual size pillow and 4 pillows per bed is much nicer.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"fine for overnight"
I checked in later in the evening, and the woman at the desk was wonderful! She was funny and offered me all different kinds of recommendations if I was looking to go out. The hotel had gotten my request for microwave and fridge in room and even was able to place my room farther away from the stairs/elevators. The room was sufficient, and clean (except […] for the few hairs that always seem to find theirt way onto the shower walls!) The hotel is not recently renovated, but was comfortable and close to everything for a reasonable rate. My only dislike was I had expected a friendly outgoing person on the desk in the morningas well, since the night staff was so accommodating. The day staff was not. She spent the time on the phone, didn't ask if I needed anything, didn't engage with any of the people staying there and eating. SHe checked people out without ever getting off the phone. Other than that one person. I wouldn't mind staying here again for business. Pročitajte višeAutentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju

The hotel was very clean, the staff was very friendly, and the location to shops and Desert was excellent.Autentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
"Simple, clean hotel"
There is not a lot of bells and whistles to this hotel. It's a place to sleep and keep your stuff in. The staff was very pleasant and the room was clean. The whoopie pie they gave us was delicious. Overall, we had no complaints and had a very nice little vacation.Autentične Expedia recenzije gostiju
I found it to be very quiet at night,which was nice,theonly disappointment is the size of the breakfast room ,very small for the amount of people with all the rooms booked,also most places have breakfast until ten am rather than nine am... overall satisfied...Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"Just what we needed"
This was our second time using this hotel as a stopover on our way to Bar Harbor. It was clean, quiet and the continental breakfast was surprisingly tasty (we had make-your-own waffles and eggs). Definitely the way to go- price was good. Check out Gritty's up the road for a yummy dinner - they have good beer and a healthy kids menu too.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"Econodge not pleasant place to stay"
This econodge was not particularly clean. The furniture was in disrepair and two of the lamps were falling apart. There was no decor of any sort, on the walls, and the walls were fairly dirty. To us, it was a BIG disappointment!!!Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
Great location to enjoy the Maine coast during the day and sleep at night. Rooms were nice, clean and small. Close enough to shopping that I was able to aquire steamed Maine soft-shell lobsters at 6AM to enjoy with the motel's waffles.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"One night in Freeport after shopping"
This is an economically-priced hotel near the outlet shops. It is clean, but not fancy. We needed a place to sleep and this was the best priced hotel. It was fine for our purposes.Autentične Expedia recenzije gostiju

Stayed for one night while visiting Freeport. Hotel was clean and has been updated. Staff were friendly. Good place to stay for a short term visit.Autentične Expedia recenzije gostiju

"Good for a pit stop."
This was our second stay here. Taking a family vacation out to eastern Cananda. Generally an ok spot to stay for the price. Only downfall is that as a family of four we found the room and bathroom were small. The room also felt humid. The breakfast area also small for the amount of people that were staying. The parking lot was pretty full and we were […] not able to park near our room. If you are using the hotel as a one night pit stop for a trip.............it's perfect.

Room was priced right, clean, and location is just outside the Freeport shopping area but within 1/4 to 1/2 mile of it. Good barbecue 200 yards away.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"Good cheap motel"
The staff were very obliging and friendly. The free mini whoopie pies at the the front desk were a nice added touch. The only thing that wasn't great was we found dried blood on one the beds, but they came right away to change them and were genuinely horrified that that happened. Otherwise the place was clean and in a great location.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju

A very basic no frills hotel. Overall clean, quiet even though booked to capacity, excellent Internet very fast strong connection, pleasant staff and I definitely would stay again.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"it was ok...."
Stayed one night. Hotel was located near lots of other chain hotels. About 2miles outside Freeport. Breakfast room needs to be larger though they did provide some outdoor seating. Beds were comfy.

"Bare Bones Motel"
Motel was quiet and clean and lots of hot water, the staff was very pleasant, and the continental breakfast was adequate. However, the motel is showing its age. The bathroom is barely large enough to turn around, the air conditioner could not keep up with the hot weather and it is dated as if it were the 50's and 60's. The beds were doubles and certainly […] not a king. I did not notice an elevator. I also thought it was overpriced but the location does make it so. It also appears they also accept pets which is a plus for those traveling with small pets. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju

We had a good experience staying at this hotel. The room was clean and the staff was friendly. I felt comfortable here and the free parking and wifi was nice.

"Easy access, pet friendly"
We very much enjoyed our stay at the Econo Lodge Freeport, ME. The location couldn't be beat and it felt clean and updated. We had a bit of an issue with the pet fee (paid the extra $ in cash when we checked in, were told when we checked out that we hadn't paid), but it was resolved quickly and in a friendly manner. Would certainly stay again!Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"service was good."
If you are looking for an inexpensive hotel that is clean and service good then this is it. Rooms are what you would expect for the price but clean. My only complaint was that the room was a little musty smelling but I bought an air freshner at one of the outlets stores and that fixed the problem.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"Need of a total refurbishment"
We stayed here many years ago when it was a days inn. Its glory days are over. The place needs to be gutted, and repainted along with new rugs, furniture, bedding, etc. Just getting rib of very dated bed spreads and replacing them with a duvet cover and a colored runner similar to what is found at Marriott's and other hotels would make a big difference. […] Place was quiet. Pročitajte višeAutentične Expedia recenzije gostiju

"pineland trails 50k run"
our stay was just what we needed for the night. the room was fine and comfortable, the night was quiet, and the hotel was nice enough to start breakfast early for those running the 50 mile race. breakfast was very good and we enjoyed the waffle machine. i hope to run this race in the future and would definately stay there again.Autentične Hotels.com recenzije gostiju
"I'd go there again"
The hotel room was nicely decorated with comfortable beds. It had everything I needed including a fridge and microwave. It was in a good location and I would definitely recommend it. I chose it for location and price. My only complaint would be that if anyone in the surrounding rooms is taking a shower, it sounded like a jet plane was landing in my […] room.

Staff were very courteous. Room was very clean and the bed quite comfortable.

Feline Familiar
Binds when used
Use: Teaches you how to summon this companion.
Yawns, sits, and lies down.
Warping sound (on summon); pit-pattering footsteps; vocalizations (on-click)
Chased by Stinker.
Purchasable only during the in-game holiday, Hallow's End. Tricky Treats can be obtained during the event from candy buckets inside friendly inns, defeating the Headless Horseman once per day, as well as quests and dailies.
When this pet's owner mounts up and takes flight, the Feline Familiar will mount up on its very own miniature broom and fly alongside the player.
This black cat will also make Stinker's heart flutter but it's a short-lived, one sided romance.
I just got this pet. It looks awesome! But can't tell yet if it is good in combat. Any know how good this little guy is?
Love this pet, strong in battles and flys on a broom! What more could you ask for?! Bought mine with Halloween candy via vendor last year!
This is the most used pet I own. Onix Bite, Soneskin, Devour. I always start with Stoneskin then Onix bite till they are low health and finish them with Devour. Along with being a part of my main level 25 PvP tem this pet is perfict for leveling other pets. Just choose the two you want to level up along with this one and go battle any wild pet team and win.
I couldn't wait for Halloween, so I just dropped 500g on one at the AH. This kitty is awesome.
For those wanting to level pets quickly, this pet is a definite must.
@1brotherbill You need either a Beast-family stone, or a "flawless" (useable on any family)
Is there anyway to make this guy rare? What stone do I need?
love the broomstick!
its cute and it kicks
As if being a black cat with a witch hat wasn't enough, it kicks butt!
I go with an Onyx Bite + Stone Skin + Devour ability set, and it makes FF one of the few Beasts that can take down a Flying pet with little issue. Stone Skin negates most dots, stampede type abilities, and at the very least helps soak up some of the harder hits this pet may take. Devour = kill to heal, so always awesome.
Leveled mine up pretty quick on DMF Isle while hunting.
A fave!
This pet is my favourite pet of all time! i have lvled 3 characters from 85-86 -90 with this:) Critter killer indeed
Having seen this pet in the top 20 and read the comments of it being a good pet to level, I instantly leapt to the Auction House and bought an upgrade stone, making it Rare. After that it was a breeze to level and took under an hour to get it to level 15 with no deaths and no trouble. Simply using 'Devour' as the last move on a pet keeps it healed and going, meaning you don't need to run and get your pets healed if your mass heal is on cooldown, and it gets in a hit on the second enemy. Brill!
Hands down one of the best grinding pets in the game for a few reasons. It has a defensive ability Stone Skin that blocks most dots, and almost all multi-round attacks. It's Onyx bite is a very strong attack, and stronger against flying types (one of the common secondary pet adds) and it's Devour is strong against critters (one of the other common secondary pet adds). Plus Devour when used at a good time, pretty much heals half of your health. First pet I lvl'd to 25 and my favorite to grind w/.
i Finaly got one from the AH for 1250g
now i think i have upgradestone :)
im so happy ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: )
I love the Devour ability on this pet. I can typically go many rounds without having to heal it.
dispite his fustrating fragility, he remains my fav pet and is always in my team, i named him Mog from Meg and Mog, loved thoes books :)
I had started to level this kitty because it's one of my favorite pets ever and I needed another pet for my cool cat team. It's an awesome pet. The prowl, call darkness, or even onyx bite (so you can take the damage reduction skill) combo is incredibly powerful. Now I just need to get my other kitties up to 25! Despite being female, I named mine Binx. It was too fitting.
Despite the fragility, Stoneskin allows her to ignore most DoTs, so it's a good trade off.
... wow.
I have gotten around to leveling this one in Kun Lai. Granted, a lot of Critters and low power multi-hits, but at 15 it's taking out 2 25s before I have to switch out.
This is my favorite pet! I named mine Kitty Fantastico, hopefully someone else gets that reference. :)
Worth an upgrade stone, yes. Prowl+Call Darkness hits very hard, can kill many level 25 enemies in one hit. Unfortunately, she is quite fragile. I have level 18 pets with more health.
This one is definitely worth an upgrade stone!

Noa Deane This is us: France
Our Kind Noa Deane featured in What Youth's - This is us: France. A film that described by What Youth as "This is a film that epitomizes why we do this. Why we surf. And travel. And live.
We went to France and we forgot to check the charts. But we went anyway. And contrary to forecasts, we found waves. And when we didn't find them, we didnt complain. We did other things. We skated. Went to Paris. Went to museums. Went to the city. Surfed the Wave Garden. And toured around Europe. It was easily another one of the best trips of our lives.
This film represents why being a surfer today is the greatest thing ever."

This is shot before the US Open of Surfing. Noa had just landed at LAX from Charles de Gaulle to find a coffin of snapped rafts. Despite grabbing some quick-picks, he felt it out pretty quick and even stomped a big spin (right at the end, so hang in there).

Wedding Planning Community - Wedding News Forums & Blogs
Hello everybody. My name is Vicky and I'm a bride to be planning my wedding day and wanted to see what you think about a question that I have. If you had to choose one... either a wedding photographer or a videographer, which one would you choose for your wedding and why?
I know that a lot of the decision would be based on the quality of their work and price, but for the sake of an example, let's just say that both the wedding photographer and videographer are the best at what they do and the price is exactly the same to hire either one.... now would you rather the wedding photographer or videographer? And please explain why...
Tags: Bride, Choosing, Compare, Forum, Photographer, Plan, Planning, Questions, TyingTheKnott.com, Videographer, More…Wedding, Wedding Forums, Wedding Photographer, Wedding Photographer or Videographer, Wedding Planning, Wedding Question, Wedding Videographer, Weddings
My answer may be biased since I'm a wedding photographer myself, but I personally prefer photos... You can't hang a video above your fireplace. Sure, I have seen a lot of good wedding videographers out there, but I suppose it all depends on how you would like to remember your special day.
Ok so I'm a little biased because I'm a wedding videographer, but I would highly recommend you consider having your wedding filmed because when done right, video will capture the memories of the day on so many more levels. I have been producing wedding videos for several years and I've had so many brides (and grooms) tell me after they have watched the video just how happy and relieved they were for choosing to get one! Even in my own experience, sure photographs are great but when I watched our wedding video I was amazed at just how much I either missed or had already forgotten about on the day.
Here's one of my highlights wedding videos.
Music: Falling in Love (Instrumental) - Ben Rector
Source: www.themusicbed.com
Video: www.videomywedding.com.au
Hi Vicky, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I have a photography background and actually love the HD videotaping portion of my wedding business. Due to ever better technology, My wedding clients have enjoyed their wedding DVDs and their 7x9 photo albums that are created by using still images captured from video. Perhaps could hire a both to capture your wedding ceremony and just one to capture the reception. I'm including my link to show as a reference. Good luck on your choice!
Ah now this I think is an easy one for me, I would have photos for the day and a videographer for the reception. Photos look so much better and just say if you fall up the aisle, would you have to RE SHOOT it? Then it would seem alittle false and acted out for me, but it would be great getting everyone on video at the reception when they are at ease and a little tipsy, lol just tell them not to swear and make sure none of your family are caught slagging off the other family, lol xxx
I would always go for still photography - though I am a wedding photographer (UK BAsed!). Why? Outstanding wall art, wedding albums to die for, parent books to say thank you,
Capturing still images from video will not produce the same quality of large prints or canvas wall art etc.
At the end of the day (you know, when it gets dark...) it's a tough call and it does depend on your budget etc.
Hi Vicky Congratulations on your engagement!
As you would expect the responses are fairly evenly split - the photographers saying photography and conversely the videographers saying video. As an owner of a photography business I too am going to champion photography as I think it offers more flexibility of delivery ie. albums, wall art, digital albums we also offer the option to have a compilation of your favourite images set to music on a DVD. I agree with Boogiebaby may be consider a videographer for the evening, there are also companies that offer DIY videography - they provide the equipment for friends, family to film and then it is is then professionally post produced.
Hi Vicky,
Congratulations to you on your engagement. Choosing a wedding photographer or videographer is totally depend on your decision that how you want to capture the special moments and memories of the wedding day and how you would like to remember your marriage day. A wedding photographer or videographer both are perfect in his/her work, but a wedding photographer gives you better capturing of the special moments with awesome and attractive photographs.

Oh man, I'd really like to enter but I'm afraid I can't do a decent enough piece to meet the deadline... :/
filth090 - Looking really good, I especially like the scratched feel, and the way the little arms look like thumbs. It seems kind of enlongated height-wise, but maybe that's just me. HellaHellaStyle - The scene reminded me of the TV shows that my grandparents watch all the time. A really creative idea, and very well executed. Victus Inferi - It's really cool and demented... then you read the description at the bottom. That alone makes it so good in so many ways. The picture itself looks clean, but the fingers on Dusknoir seem strangely paper-like. Perhaps you could try to give them more dimension? I can't wait to see this finished. EDIT: Shinxe - Grotesque and so, so cool. I love how well you used the odd color scheme. Definitely one of my favorites so far. I wasn't really planning on making an entry to this at first. However, I was at my friends house the other day, and while I was staring into their pretty large saltwater aquarium, I saw a jellyfish (jellyfish polyps had come in on her live rock and were taking over, but she doesn't know how to get them out) attack and "eat" one of the many fry of the large pair of Maroon Clownfish she had in the tank. The mother fish (I assume) was furious, and kept pecking at it, but to no avail. I thought it was kind of sad, funny, and neat at the same time, and I found myself mindlessly doodling the scene during driver's ed, just with a different cast... Lineart lineart lineart! The picture is really dark and the camera wasn't able to take a clear shot of the more distant Pokemon, but I'm posting this anyways so other artists can catch any errors I've made before I paint (I WILL find some way to scan it when it's done, somehow.) Lastly, I have high hopes for the amazing art that will be submitted this time! If you can make art, please enter this contest! (Yilx, please try D:) Lumineon, you silly fish, you can't to anything to Tentacruel...
Victus, I love it! My only suggestion is cleen up the hand thats coming out at y ou, its finger tips kinda blend into his collar.
@Yilx: YES YOU CAN! YES YOU CAN!!! @VictusInferi: That's pretty awesome-sauce @Kassidy: TENTACRUEL IS WICKED COOL! Kudos to you, my friend. Can't wait to see the finished piece! @DoranDragon: O I didn't know you wanted a Noctowl O____O I shall see what I can do. PM me and let me know what you want it to look like and what you want in the word bubble.
Oh no I leave for Italy next Friday and I should be packing and not even online at all but OH GOD why do you keep choosing FUN THEMES. 8C Well expect a pic I guess :x
Actually quick question: When you say two colors, does that include the full value scale for those colors? I'm not clear on what you mean by 'transitional' colors and don't want to assume so before I go ahead and do it.
Yeah, I guess it does include the full scale. Transitional colors meaning, let's say if someone's choosing a soft yellow and a deep red, if they want to, they can use whatever shade of orange in between so that the colors flow better, but again in minimal amounts. But don't worry, the judges will try to give everyone as much feedback as possible to make sure they grasp the theme. @Victus Inferi: I really like your entry and the style is sooo intriguing, but I think it lacks depth. That can be fixed by determining a light source and then adding shading to the ground and on the sides of the Dusclops in respect to the light. Other than that, I dig it a lot.
That's enough procrastinating for me... see you all in August! :B I can't wait to come back and see everybody else's entries. It's a really fun theme this time! I hope I followed it decently enough!
WAIT WAIT Doran Dragon don't give up on me yet. ;^; Sorry I put clothes on your Noctowl because most of the judges are clothed. Huhuhu. Hide (Move your mouse to the hide area to reveal the content) Show Hide Hide Hide Now that I've dropped out of my judging position, my Toxicroak caricature no longer goes in the judging roster. I'd be willing to do Bucky and pkmn Trainer Zach's, if they'll let me. Sorry for not contributing to the thread. I no longer have influence. I respectfully bow out. v_v
Sceptallistic, I would LOVE you to do one for me! My favorite Pokémon is Espeon, so that's the one that I want to represent me! I can't wait to see what you come up with!!! :D
OMG thanks scepticalistic! i didnt give up on you, bucky said he'd do it instead. i was mislead! D: oh and that cubone is great! ^_^
Oooooooooooooooo this theme is looooooovely. I would love to participate. Got a shitload of art to do for other obligations though so I don't think I'll be able to... :( Looking forward to seeing more entries. In case this helps anyone: your entry must be 2 contrasting/extreme opposite colors. Not more than 2. Edit: Shinxe's is a great example
I drew some lineart I'm pretty happy with it. It's going to be hard to colour though, I think I'll just go with a black and white colour scheme since that works well with Krow and it'll look nice with white lightning contrasting with Krow and the dark cityscape.
@Doran Dragon: I'M NOT A HE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ought to burst through your computer screen and strangle you! @Shinxe: You my friend have truly grasped the theme. Excellent work. @Suntt123: Pretty impressive. I can't wait to see the final piece. Make sure you work the shadows and light source accordingly and it'll be great! @Binary Solo: I dig it already! :D
Shinxe, yet again, you are my favourite so far, I love the colours you used. BinarySolo, you're line art is awesome, can't wait to see the final piece :)
Are we allowed to draw the unreleased B/W pokemon? I'm thinking of drawing the unnamed lolimon on the right of this pic http://www.serebii.net/blackwhite/ohasuta2.jpg
A question. Is pixel ART allowed? Not sprites, but a full-fledged larger pixel piece with a background and such.
@Yilx: You certainly are! Just make sure you stick to the Pokemon that are official. I can't wait to see what you come up with!! @Medical Meccania: As long as it meets the size requirements, you should be alright ^__^

SOLo Lounge Table Makes Solar Chic
I came across this ultra-chic, tech-driven table the other day and was amazed to find that it is embedded with solar panels! Although it would probably only make sense to own a table like this in a very sunny environment -- say skylights, all-glassed in room or office, or greenhouse -- but in the right place it would be a fantastic addition to your decor. The SOLO table takes all the solar energy it absorbs and stores it so you can charge your gadgets without having to plug into the wall. And if you are lacking a super -sunny space in your home or office, you can always place it outdoors since this amazing table is weatherproof! Business, green energy and style are accomplished on one hot surface. (MSRP $14,000)

The School of Education's Extraordinary Graduate Study-Abroad Program in Early Childhood Education Offering 12 Scholarships; Apply Now Once again this summer, St. John's University is offering educators the unique opportunity to study the highly regarded Italian approach to Early Childhood Education, inclusive of the widely acclaimed Reggio Emilia program that emphasizes immersion in the creative and performing arts.
This is the fourth consecutive year that St. John's School of Education is offering this extraordinary 3-credit study-abroad program, and is making available scholarships that provide support for students and St. John's faculty to engage in collaborative research and study in the beautiful northern Italian city of Brescia. The scholarships—this year a record 12 full-tuition scholarships are being offered—are generously funded by an endowment established by University benefactor Josephine M. Pacini.
The week-long graduate program is designed for experienced childhood and early childhood educators and administrators who hold a minimum of a bachelor's degree in Elementary/Early Childhood Education or a related field from an accredited university. This year's program, scheduled for June 27-July 5, is also open to St. John's alumni and staff, and to others interested in participating without credit (a maximum of four will be accepted depending on space availability).
Because Brescia has a rich legacy of history and art, it is the optimal location for students to learn about Italian methods and approaches to preschool education from the experts and to network with practitioners. "Italy is one of the world's most admired countries for its exemplary educational programs for young children," notes Associate Professor Grace Ibanez-Friedman, Ed.D., a supporter of the program who accompanied the students to Brescia for the past three years.School of Education Dean Jerrold Ross, Ph.D., notes that, "This program, the only one of its kind in the world, unites a highly popular graduate course of study of American early childhood practices with a unique international approach that provides very young children with an academic and aesthetic experience guaranteeing their success in school." "The richness of art in Italian culture has a profound influence in early childhood education," says Associate Professor Smita Guha, Ph.D., an early-childhood educator who has accompanied the students to Brescia each year and is again making the trip this year . She will be joined by Dr. Angelo Gimondo, a retired superintendent of District 30 in Queens and former New York City Coordinator of the Arts who is also a native of Italy. Dr. Gimondo has acted as cultural guide and facilitator for the group since the program's inception in 2006. Hosted by the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart of Milan at its Brescia campus, and by La Scuola Publishing Company and the municipality of Brescia, the program has pre-travel requirements, including introductory seminars and online discussions on critical areas related to the course. Once they arrive in Italy, in addition to their classroom work, the group will make field visits to early childhood sites and visit Reggio Emilia's children's museum and the International Children's Center for the Arts in Rezzato. The educators will again be staying at Centro Paolo VI, a former monastery and now a retreat and hotel complex that presently holds the archives of Pope Paul VI. (The late Pontiff was a native of Brescia and a member of one of the city's most prominent families.) El Centro is within walking distance of the university, and near the center of Brescia's incredible antiquities.
The cost of three graduate credits for academic year Summer 2009 through Spring 2010 will be set by March 2009. Tuition for the academic year Summer 2008 through Spring 2009 in the School of Education was $865 per credit or $2,595 for three credits. Program costs also include a program fee of $2,900; airfare is the responsibility of participants and is estimated to be $1,200 roundtrip to Italy.
Deadline for applications is March 6, 2009. For more information about this program, contact Dr. Guha at email@example.com or (718) 990-2454 or the Department at (718) 990-2664/5644.

Polls consistently show the public favors Obama's position of raising taxes on wealthy Americans in order to minimize cuts.
Nearly half of Americans -- 49% -- approve the president's handling of the talks, compared with 25% who say Boehner is doing a good job, according to an ABC News/Washington Post poll released Wednesday.
Meanwhile, a Bloomberg National Poll found nearly two-thirds of respondents, including nearly 50% of Republicans, believe Obama's re-election gave him a mandate to seek higher taxes on the wealthy.
Regardless of which side of the debate citizens fall, experts agree almost everyone will be affected if a deal isn't struck. Two former Senate majority leaders said Thursday both sides must be ready to compromise.
"The simplest way to put it is that we're at 24% spending, we're at 16% revenue," said Tom Daschle, a former Democratic senator from South Dakota. "We've got to bring those two closer together, and that's how you get a balanced budget, and ultimately that's how you get fiscal responsibility. ... It can be done."
To Trent Lott, a former Republican senator from Mississippi, it comes down to the principal negotiators.
"There'll come a moment when the speaker ... and the president will have to make a decision," Lott said. "But they need to do it in concert.
"It's like directing the orchestra. You've got to have the winds and the brass come together, and they're not quite there."

The scandal shines a light on a relatively complicated issue, raising a question for all colleges: When is it okay for students to share work and when is sharing, cheating?
"There is a lot of gray area," says Beth Jorgensen who chairs the board on academic honesty at the University of Rochester.
Competition drives students at the U of R; competition to get into grad or medical school, competition to get a job offer in a tough economy. "There's a lot of pressure to do really well and people are trying to find a way to do that," says Ian Goldsmith-Rooney, a sophomore majoring in chemical engineering.
With smart phones and the internet, cheating on a test may be easier and more tempting than ever before, but what happens when the line between right and wrong is blurred?
"Some professors will actually say you can't do this homework unless you work with other students, and others will be really upset if you do that," says Goldsmith-Rooney.
"It's more the collaborative side of it -- collaborating on homework because a lot of times it's very difficult to do on your own," says Namita Sarraf, a sophomore.
In any given year there are about 20 long-form dishonesty reports filed against students at the U of R suspected of cheating. Last year the number spiked to 62. The issue of collaborative cheating reared it's head.
"It's one act with five or six students," explains Jorgensen. "The numbers go up because a number of students collaborated in an unauthorized way."
Jorgensen says collaboration allows students to conduct a lab experiment together, for example, but then each is responsible for his or her own analysis and report. She says the gray area can cause problems not only for students but for their professors too.
"I have to ask them to tell me what guidelines they gave for the assignment, how clear they felt they were in their instructions," says Jorgensen. "Sometimes they're very clear and there is a violation, and sometimes they say, 'I need to be more clear next time.'"
The U of R regularly reviews it's honesty policies. Even before the Harvard incident the school had planned a major reassessment in 2013.

We stayed for eight nights in this hotel, which is an old section of a new bigger hotel. This part of the hotel needs to be updated / renewal. The main advantages are that this part of the hotel is quit, to compare with the main building.

I used to live in Japan for 10 years and went back for a 5-day visit. The moment I saw the room I was so shocked how small the room was! I immediately went back to the concierge for a room upgrade but the rooms were all booked at that time. I forgot how everything is so cramped up in Tokyo so I just stuck with it considering that my husband and I will be out the whole day anyway. There was literally no space for our luggage so we ended up placing our luggage on one of the beds and we slept on a single size bed for 5 days. The only reason I picked this hotel is the location. Very near the station and is very accessible to all the major train lines in Tokyo. Don't choose this hotel if you are on a vacation especially on a honeymoon. My husband and I know our way around in Tokyo and this visit was to run errands and enjoy Tokyo and head back home.

"Chapter 44: The Millennium," Gospel Principles, 282
A thousand years of peace, love, and joy will begin on the earth at the second coming of Jesus Christ. This thousand-year period is called the Millennium. It will be the final thousand years of the earth's temporal existence. The scriptures and the prophets help us understand what it will be like to live on the earth during the Millennium.
Who Will Be on Earth during the Millennium?
Only righteous people will live on the earth during the Millennium. They will be those who have lived virtuous and honest lives. These people will inherit either the terrestrial or celestial kingdom.
During the Millennium, mortals will still live on earth, and they will continue to have children as we do now (see D&C 45:58). Joseph Smith said that immortal beings will frequently visit the earth. These resurrected beings will help with the government and other work. (See Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 268.)
Brigham Young taught that there will be nonmembers of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints living on earth as well as members. People will still have their agency, and for a time many will continue to believe their false religions and ideas. Eventually everyone will accept Jesus Christ as the Savior. (See Daniel H. Ludlow, ed., Latter-day Prophets Speak, pp. 261–62.)
During the Millennium, Jesus will "reign personally upon the earth" (Articles of Faith 1:10). Joseph Smith explained that Jesus and the resurrected Saints will probably not live on the earth all the time but will visit whenever they please or when necessary to help in the governing of the earth (see Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p. 268).
What Will Be Done during the Millennium?
There will be two great works for members of the Church during the Millennium: temple work and missionary work. Temple work involves the ordinances that are necessary for exaltation. These include baptism, the laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost, and the temple ordinances—the endowment, temple marriage, and the sealing together of family units.
Many people have died without receiving these ordinances. People on the earth must perform these ordinances for them. This work is now being done in the temples of the Lord. There is too much work to finish before the Millennium begins, so it will be completed during that time. Resurrected beings will help us correct the mistakes we have made in doing research concerning our dead ancestors. They will also help us find the information we need to complete our records.
The other great work during the Millennium will be missionary work. The gospel will be taught with great power to all people. Eventually there will be no need to teach others the first principles of the gospel because "they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord" (Jeremiah 31:34).
Conditions during the Millennium
The earth will again be as it was when Adam and Eve lived in the Garden of Eden (see Articles of Faith 1:10). The whole earth will be a delightful garden. There will not be different continents as we have now, but the land will be gathered in one place as it was in the beginning (see D&C 133:23–24).
Satan Bound
During the Millennium, Satan will be bound. This means he will not have power to tempt those who are living at that time (see D&C 101:28). The "children shall grow up without sin unto salvation" (D&C 45:58). "Because of the righteousness of his people, Satan has no power; wherefore, he cannot be loosed for the space of many years; for he hath no power over the hearts of the people, for they dwell in righteousness, and the Holy One of Israel reigneth" (1 Nephi 22:26).
Peace on the Earth
During the Millennium, there will be no war. People will live in peace and harmony together. Everything that has been used for war will be turned to useful purposes. "They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more" (Isaiah 2:4).
Righteous Government
Jesus Christ will not only lead the Church during the Millennium, but he will also be in charge of the political government. This government will be based on principles of righteousness and will preserve the basic rights and freedoms of all people. Mortals, both members of the Church and nonmembers, will hold government positions (see Brigham Young, in Journal of Discourses, 2:310). They will receive help from resurrected beings. At this time there will be two capitals in the world, one in Jerusalem, the other in America (see Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, 3:66–72). "For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem" (Isaiah 2:3).
No Disease or Death
Even though mortals will live on the earth during the Millennium, they will not have diseases as we do now. There will be no death as we know it. When people have lived to an old age, they will not die and be buried. Instead, they will be changed from their mortal condition to an immortal condition in an instant (see D&C 63:51; 101:29–31).
All Things Revealed
Some truths have not been revealed to us. These will be revealed during the Millennium. The Lord said he will "reveal all things—things which have passed, and hidden things which no man knew, things of the earth, by which it was made, and the purpose and the end thereof—things most precious, things that are above, and things that are beneath, things that are in the earth, and upon the earth, and in heaven" (D&C 101:32–34).
Changes in the Animal Kingdom
The animal kingdom will also be at peace. All animals, even those that are now enemies, will live together in harmony. Animals that now eat flesh will eat grass and grain (see Isaiah 11:6–7).
Other Millennial Activities
In many ways, life will be much as it is now, except that everything will be done in righteousness. People will eat and drink and will wear clothing (see Discourses of Brigham Young, p. 115). People will continue to plant and harvest crops and build houses (see Isaiah 65:21).
• Discuss the conditions that will exist during the Millennium. Use the scriptural reference listed for each condition.
One Final Struggle after the Millennium
At the end of the thousand years, Satan will be set free for a short time. Some people will turn away from Heavenly Father. Satan will gather his armies, and Michael (Adam) will gather the hosts of heaven. In this great struggle, Satan and his followers will be cast out forever. Then will come the final judgment, and all people will be assigned to the kingdoms they will have prepared for by the way they have lived. The earth will be changed into a celestial kingdom (see D&C 29:22–29; 88:17–20, 110–15).

Y. 11735 Published by THE OBSERVER, Inc., Box 146, Farmingdale, N. Y. Thursday, December 14, 1972 » 15c & JZ Man K * d iM Republic of Fann'mgdale Has Frank Cirincione of 2 Hopes- So Does Everyone on the Island Laurelton St., Farmingdale, has pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of first- degree manslaughter last week before his trail on a murder charge had begun. Cirincione had been charged with killing Philip Friedman, 24, of Dix Hills, earlier this year allegedly over a gambling debt. Friedman's body was found at 54 Washington Street in Farmingdale. The manslaughter charge carries a maximum prison sentence of 25 years. Sentence will be pronounced on January 19. Police Arrest Two Teenagers Two would- be burglars were arrested last Sunday at Merritts Road and Michael Avenue in South Farmingdale. According to a report from police precinct 7, two young men from Massapequa, Phillip Bruning, 18, and Robert Scafidi, 19, were arrested for attempted robbery by Ptl. Carmine Bianco at the Merritt Shell Station. Other burglars, however, got away. Like the one who stole $ 50,000 in currency from the M & D Shell Station at Main Street and Route 109 on Saturday or the one who netted $ 169.00 in cash during a robbery at Carl's Inn at Motor Avenue on Sunday. Sometime in January the Defense Department in Washington is expected to announce the winner of the Air Force A- X program. To the victor will go the award for a contract which may call for the delivery of some 600 aircraft valued at $ 1 billion. Two firms are competing for that award ~ Northrop Corporation of Hawthorne, California, and Fairchild Industry's Republic Division of Farmingdale. What supposedly is strictly a contest for the best aircraft based on design, engineering and capability, has turned into a display of political muscle. For not only business worth $ 1 billion to a private firm is at stake but also a major economic impulse for either California or New York, primarily Long Island. In the case of Farmingdale's Fairchild Republic, a contract award would mean 4,500 new jobs fairly soon, with a resulting total employment of 7,000 by 1977. The " ripple effect" of such a major contract is usually creating two additional jobs in related industry, commerce and service establishments. Thus the A- X contract could eventually provide a total of 21,000 new jobs. These jobs would not only create profits for the workers' employers but also additional tax revenue for all levels of government down to the villages where the earnings of the 21,000 new jobholders will be spent. It is for this reason that not only stockholders of the companies involved in the award competition try to get the Defense Department to see it their way, but also all public officials and business interests in the area where the prospective contractors are located. This alone would justify a broad- based effort to land the A-How to Do Without the LIRR A Stranded Farmingdale commuters are forced to find other means of going to work in the City. The Stagecoach Lines provide bus service to Hempstead where commuters have to switch to a Bee Line Co. bus to the Jamaica subway station. Total cost of the trip is $ 1.40. Stagecoach buses leave Route 110 and Conklin Street in Farmingdale every 20 minutes beginning at 6: 20 a. m. and continue until 5: 20 p. m. After that time there are only two further runs: 5: 30 and 6: 50 p. m. The buses run along Conklin Street picking up passengers approximately every two blocks, or three minutes. Its main Farmingdale stop is at the corner of Main and Conklin Streets, which it makes three minutes after it begins its journey from Route 110. This leg of the journey costs $. 80 In Hempstead riders should ask the driver to be able to get off as close to the Hempstead Holiday Inn as possible. From there, passengers can board Bee Line buses between Fulton and Front Streets along Clinton Avenue, behind the A & P. The buses, which are marked " Jamaica," head west along Hempstead Turnpike and go directly to the 169th Street subway station. This ride costs $. 60. The Bee Line buses run every few minutes throughout the day. On the return trip, which is the same cost, riders should find no difficulty boarding the Bee Line Bus in Jamaica. Making the connection to the Stage Coach bus, however, is not quite as easy. Following the same route as they did in the morning, the buses to Farmingdale leave Hempstead at 5, 5: 30, 6, 6: 30, 7: 45, 8: 35, and 10: 30p. m. They arrive in Farmingdale approximately 35 minutes later. All buses make the same stops they did in the reverse run except the 8: 35 bus, which only stops at the intersection of Main and Conklin Streets. Further personalized and detailed information on a bus ride on any bus operating in the County may be obtained by calling 626- 3000 in Nassau, or the Suffolk Civil Defense Office at 924- 4400. y X contract for Republic. There is, however, another reason for the push on behalf of Republic that is now gathering speed and force not only on Long Island, but throughout the state -- the geographic imbalance of the recent Defense Department contract awards. California has been the recipient of the majority of the recent contract awards as measured by their dollar value. There was the $ 2.6 billion space-shuttle contract, for which Grumman competed with California's North American Rockwell and which went to California. There also was the $ 46 million contract going to North American Rockwell for the development of two prototypes of a Navy fighter plane capable of making vertical or short takeoffs and landings. While this initial contract seems small, the Navy has grand ideas for a new weapons system in which this plane would occupy a central spot. In other words, this small initial contract could grow into another juicy plum for North American Rockwell ~ as if Grumman has never built a Navy plane. Preceding the space- shuttle award to North American Rockwell was a well- organized and massive public campaign in California aimed at pressuring the Space Administration to give this contract to North American Rockwell. The Space Administration has denied vigorously ever since that it has been influenced by this campaign or that it ever will respond to outside pressure. Evidence suggests, however, that Grumman's design for the space-shuttle was in every respect as good, if not better than its competitor's. What Grumman had also going for it was the fact that it had the only operating space- shuttle thus far built, even though it was not meant to be one. Remember when the astronauts got stuck way out in space and the lunar lander built by Grumman strictly for the purpose its name suggests brought them safely back to earth? Anyway, since by all evidence it was an even contest between two equally deserving concepts something had to tip the decision one way or the other. The suggestion not only heard on Long Island and around the state but also in Washington was that political considerations finally won out •• considerations based on the public pressure generated on the Pacific coast so closely before a national election in which California seemed to be a KEEPING THEIR FINGERS CROSSED: Fairchild Republic Materia) Manager Carl Plosey ( right) of Farmingdale and Purchasing Agent Edwin Brennan of Stony Brook review lists of subcontractors and suppliers who could become involved in the $ 1 billion A- X contract doubtful state. Now that the space- shuttle is in California, and California also went Republican, it is further suggested that it would be New York's turn to be rewarded. After the space- shuttle contract award to North American Rockwell was made public, Nassau County Executive Ralph Caso commented " Perhaps we could have done more." What he apparently alluded to was the fact that it might be naive to assume that a lucrative government contract is awarded solely on the basis of competence. Not to fall victim to this naivete again, public officials of all sizes, shapes, forms and political persuasions have now mounted a campaign to secure the A- X contract for Long Island. They are joined by numerous civic groups, with the Long Island Association of Commerce and Industry out in front. In contrast to the space- shuttle, which was criticized by some members of Congress and other political figures as a low- priority item, support for the A- X cuts across party lines. Senator George McGovern specifically excluded the A- X from his long list of weapons systems which he said would be eliminated if he were elected President. Tis the Season to Be Merry The Music Department of the Farmingdale Schools has planned a series of daytime and evening concerts to usher in a season of happiness and joy.
