Sustainable Research Excellence
What is Sustainable Research Excellence (SRE):
Sustainable Research Excellence is a Government (DiiSRTE) initiative to better understand the real costs incurred by Universities undertaking Australian Government funded research. The initiative will put in place a framework to provide best practice financial management, performance and reporting.
SRE Objectives:
- $510 million over 4 years (2009 2012)
- To support the indirect costs associated with undertaking research funded by an Australian Competitive Grant (ACG)
- Increase transparency and accountability to ensure that resources are allocated rationally and used efficiently
How is Southern Cross University implementing the SRE Framework:To identify the indirect costs associated with conducting research in particular, ACG research. This will consist of a survey to all researchers designed to identify the fields of research and the amount of time spent undertaking research and financial data detailing the indirect costs incurred whilst undertaking research.
Critical Dates for the Survey and Financial data:
Survey period Monday May 23 - Sunday June 5
What is a Researcher and who will be getting the survey in 2011?
Definition of Researchers: :"Research and experimental development comprises creative work undertaken on a systematic basis in order to increase the stock of knowledge."
The survey will be distributed to approximately 300 employees of SCU; the 300 have been selected based on HR data and job codes matched against the data we have collected for ERA and feedback from the heads of schools.
For further information please refer to http://www.scu.edu.au/research/index.php/dds/?cat_id=1373#cat1373
During the 2009-10 Budget the Australian Government announced the Sustainable Research Excellence (SRE) initiative.

This wander should really all be credited to Brian. He surprised me in early April with a weekend trip to Asheville, North Carolina. Despite my controlling bitch ways, we had a wonderfully romantic weekend on a whim.
As we drove into Asheville, a random search on Google Maps we came upon Tupelo Honey Cafe, which just happened to be one of the best new southern food joints in town. We supped at the chefs counter watching the kitchen staff as we enjoyed sweet tea, fried green tomatoes, a Fried Chicken BLT and a Charleston Chicken Sandwich with grilled chicken, Havarti and a tangy cranberry mayo. We finished with softball sized homemade biscuits slathered with some of the namesake Tupelo honey and blackberry jam.
At Tupelo's, we also randomly ran into our friends that had moved from Denver to the Triangle area just a month before we did. It is this moment that puts me at ease for our weekend. I love randomly meeting familiar faces because it makes me feel that all the decisions that had lead up to that point were the right choices. This moment that unites past and present in s the sweetest of ways.
After roaming around the downtown area, we popped into cute shops like Dolce Vita filled with gifts and tempting jewelry and meandered among the craft booths at Grove Arcade.
After checking into our bed and breakfast the Black Mountain Inn, I needed to fulfill a vegan cupcake craving that had been nagging me for three weeks. It was satiated at Short Street Cakes with a chocolate chocolate delight. We found this bakery on a recommendation from a Asheville blogger Healthy Ashley.
Then on to an afternoon of art gallery viewing at the River Arts District. Much to our dismay, many of the studios were appointment only so we didn't see much. (Which actually pissed me off – why be listed on an artist map if you can't see their work. What is the point?!) Our favorite stop, which did result in a purchase, was at Asheville Glass Center which had live glass blowing demonstrations. FIRE – huuhh, huh – FIRE!
Our real goal for the afternoon was the Wedge Brew Company. Booze and art is always a good mix for the Furds. This awesome tap room serves nothing but beer and peanuts amongst a post-apocalyptic beer garden. Perched on a funky arty chair which spun in 360 degrees (much to my delight) we shared a pitcher of amber Payne's Pale Ale. I also got to see a baby goat in the back of someone's SUV and we met a beer drinking dog named Jack – his owner assured us that beer is an infrequent treat.
Taking the downtime to review our dinner choices. Brian tried to sneak a decision on me by asking what I wanted for dinner and I promptly reminded him "decision free weekend." Brian found tasty choice in downtown Asheville. (Note: We had actually wanted to go to Tomato Conina Latina for a second time – we had forgotten that we tried to go here when we drove across country – and it is CLOSED despite its listing on Yelp – Asheville)
After getting seriously rock star parking in downtown Asheville, we stopping in a cuuuute shop Loft before dinner. Full of beer and peanuts we found this funky store beyond entertaining. Amongst the Fuck Book, Day of the Dead jewelry and a pursuit of a bath bomb (a phrase Brian found endlessly entertaining) we left with a fabulous new necklace for me and bath salts for the footed tub back at the B&B.
Our dining destination was Sazerac a hip Creole restaurant with a oh la la modern interior. Two rounds of incredible cocktails later – honestly some of the best potent potables we've ever had. I sipped a classic Sazerac. Brian downed a Melpomene: Tragedy a magical mix of tequila, apple, lemon, ginger and garnished with a jalepeno slice. Food was good, but honestly not very filling. We had the Pan Seared Scallops and the Roasted Pork Loin.
Before heading home we stopped for quick photo opp with the farm animal sculptures in Pack Square.
Waking up on Sunday morning, we breakfasted with our B&B host with homemade cinnamon-y granola and quiche (or scrambled eggs for the lactose-free crowd). We also met a fellow house-guest who was from Atlanta, so friendly and fabulous. I love the South!
Then it was off to Biltmore Estate! I have wanted to visit the Biltmore Estate since I was in high school. I remember watching a special on HGTV way back in the day that toured America's largest home and a Lowe's gardening tips commercial series in the early 2000s. The beautiful gardens and home has held a magical place in my heart.
Our first stop was the Biltmore Estate for the self-guided tour. We walked the ornate rooms of the 1895 home. Beautifully restored fabrics, furniture and clothing were breathtaking. It strongly reminded us of Versailles in France, overly ornate and a monument to materialism. There was no photography allowed inside the home so you'll just have to wander there yourself to see the luxuries!
Some wander well tips for y'all. Even in early April it was starting to get muggy inside the home. It was also a lot of walking, serious hikes around the house. Make sure to check the Biltmore's Busy Day calendar – we went on a not so busy day and there were plenty of people.
Outside the gardens were just beginning to wake up. It was the start of the Festival of Flowers and the tulips were just opening. Honestly, we were too early for azaleas and most of the beautiful blooms. The Conservatory was in full bloom with orchids and other lovely tropical plants. One of my favorite vignettes were plants stuffed into the pockets of hard-sided luggage. Such a cute idea!
From there we ambled over to the Antler Hill Village and Winery for lunch at the Smokehouse in the Barn. Good pulled pork sandwiches on Texas Toast all washed down with a Cedric Brown Ale.
A highlight of our trip to Biltmore was the Barn Yard, I seriously heart farm animals. I have a secret fantasy of being a farm girl but I'm far to prissy to actually be a farmhand. Seriously, I can barely take care of my dog, so I can't imagine taking care of farm animals. Regardless, I love petting farm animals.
Goats are some of the most affectionate farm animals of all time. Maybe they just know that I am thankful for their lactose-safe milk. Eeeek! And chickens! I love these little barnyard dinosaurs. They had fancy chickens at Biltmore with feathery feet and ones with no feathers on their head which Brian dubbed "land vultures."
We then turned our wheels towards Raleigh. What a wonderful weekend. Whim it up people and make your way to Asheville!

Wander Well Tips:
- Go Local – this is a creative community and it's showcased in their food, art and flare
- For the Biltmore Estate get your tickets in advance and check their calendar for Busy Days
- Do happy hour at Sazerac, you will not be sad!


text: New Zealand 1922 - 2010 Don Peebles was one the pioneers of modern painting in New Zealand. He began his training at the Wellington Technical College of Art in 1947, he then moved to Australia and studied under John Passmore, a leading Australian painter at the time, at the Julian Ashton School of Arts in Sydney. In 1960, Peebles won an award to study in London where he came under the influence of the progressive British artist Victor Pasmore, a formalist influenced by de Stijl and Russian Constructivism. From this period of training Peebles set off exploring relief & constructions. At the time they had a cerebral geometric basis, often with underlying strict grid formations.In 1964 Peebles returned to New Zealand and gained a lectureship at Canterbury University. He continued to lecture at the University of Canterbury until his retirement from teaching in 1984 and then retirement from the University itself in 1986 to concentrate on painting full-time.Several of Peebles canvas relief works are organic in form, utilising unstretched canvas which hangs from the surface of the wall like gills or membranes to create the feeling of a living, breathing being. In others the surface of the construction remains flatter with interweaving strips of canvas on the face of the work holding down one loose expressive gesture giving the feeling of a casual, quick decision, when in fact every act is carefully considered and executed.Peebles' smaller studies and reliefs often have the feel of an architectural model about them. With the knowledge that they could be scaled up there is a tension of potentiality created. Later in his life Peebles became a recipient of the Arts Foundation's Icon Awards, which were launched in 2003 and are limited to a group of 20 living artists. Peebles was recognised by the Arts Foundation for his contributions to the Arts, in particular as a maverick abstract artist in the conservative New Zealand of 50 years ago. The award sits alongside Peebles' New Zealand Order of Merit awarded in 1999 for his Services to New Zealand Art and an Honorary Doctorate in Literature from the University of Canterbury in 2003. On presenting the Arts Foundation award to Peebles, Justin Paton wrote: "What makes Don's paintings such a pleasure to look at? There's the constant feeling of geometry and the hundred ways it can be pleasurably corrupted. There's the faith in painting's possibilities, alongside a necessary humility about its worldly powers. And above all, there's the sense you are watching a seriously, playful visual intelligence thinking through his materials. Artists don't just give us things to look at but also ways to look at things, and my favourite works of Don's are models of how we might, in our own ideal moments, respond to the world around us - with curiosity and alertness and openness to what is given." Don Peebles is represented in several public and private collections both in New Zealand and overseas and has exhibited in both solo and group exhibitions since 1949.

Madinat al-Muslimeen Islamic Message Board
Intention and motivation |
Haniff |
09/13/01 at 09:24:35 |
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh [center]Intention and motivation By Dr Muhammad Kamal Al-Shareef[/center] It is not possible to understand a certain person's behavior unless we can identify his motivation for doing something or refraining from another. Islamic scholars of the past gave motivation different names, such as "rationale", or "reason", which in certain ways stress the element of man's freedom of action more than "motive" and "motivation" used by Western psychologists. The Prophet stresses the importance of a person's intention, which, on the one hand, is a product of his motive and, on the other, the conscious part of that motive. Hence, a human being can easily examine his intention and amend it so as to make his actions acceptable to God. In a highly authentic Hadith the Prophet states: "Actions are but by intention, and everyone will have only what he has intended. Thus, a person who migrated for God's sake and to support His messenger, then his migration is for that purpose, and whoever migrates in order to achieve a worldly gain or to marry a certain woman, then his migration is for the purpose he intended." (related by Al-Bukhari and Muslim). In our present time, a Muslim faces a problem with regard to his motivation. He often finds himself torn between different motives pulling him in opposite directions, particularly with regard to what he may do in life, making money or seeking pleasure. A pious, God-fearing person tries to make money and enjoy himself in legitimate ways, feeling some reluctance. He looks at both wealth and pleasure as things as he cannot do without. To him, exerting one's efforts for such a purpose is more suited to those who have classified themselves as pursuers of worldly gains and pleasures. They may, like a God-fearing person, think of their actions as sinful, but they nevertheless choose to indulge in them, caring little for the outcome and the way they would be requited for their actions, if these are truly sinful. Islam is a religion based on sound nature. To love what is good and beneficial - and money is the most important type of that - is an essential part of human nature. Moreover, man is placed in charge of the Earth, and to build human life on Earth is an essential part of the trust given to man to fulfill. How is it possible for believers to fulfill their duties, giving the lead in building human life on Earth, if they were to take a reluctant attitude to work and making money? Should they not devote their best efforts to such a purpose? In the Qur'an we read how God praises Prophet Solomon, although he prayed God to grant him riches that no one else may have after him. Let us reflect on what God tells us in the Qur'an about Solomon's love of wealth, and even his passion for loving wealth: "To David, We granted Solomon! How excellent a servant (of Ours he was). He would always turn to Us: when, toward the close of day, nobly-bred, swift-footed steeds were brought before him, he would say: 'Indeed I have come to love the love of all that is good because I bear my Lord in mind!'- (repeating these words) until (the steeds) were hidden by the veil (of distance). 'Bring them back to me,' (he commanded), and he would (lovingly) stroke their legs and their necks. But (before this), We had tried Solomon by placing upon his throne a (lifeless) body; and thereupon he turned (toward Us; and) he prayed: 'My Lord! Forgive me my sins, and bestow upon me the gift of a kingdom which may not suit anyone after me. Indeed, you alone are the Supreme Giver.' And so We made subservient to him the wind, so that it gently sped at his behest wherever he willed, as well as all the jinn of every type of builder and diver, and others linked together in fetters. 'This is Our gift for you to bestow freely on others or to withhold it from them, without (having to render) account.' What awaits him in the life to come is nearness to Us and the most beauteous of all goals." (38: 30-40) This means that Solomon, the Prophet, loved that a believer should love what is good and beneficial, including wealth. His love of that came as a result of his remembrance of God, not forgetting Him. When he has been tested by God, and when he has sought God's forgiveness, he appeals to his Lord to give him riches that He would not give to anyone else in future. God does not only grant Solomon his request, but He tells us as well that he will be close to God in the hereafter, where he would have a most beautiful end. Wealth and pleasures are not inherently evil, or contrary to faith and a God-fearing behavior. That is because people's actions are as they intend them to be. It is a person's motives behind seeking wealth and pleasure that makes such a pursuit either a worldly matter to be avoided by a true believer or a good thing to be sought without entertaining any feeling of guilt. When a God-fearing believer makes sure that his motive behind seeking wealth and pleasure is neither to achieve personal glory in this life nor to encourage corruption, he will be certain of being admitted to heaven. Avoiding such motives means freeing oneself of forbidden motivation which gives wealth and pleasure an evil character, regardless of how they are acquired. God tells us in the Qur'an the story of Qaroon, and how God caused the Earth to swallow him and his dwelling place. God highlights the fact that it was not part of Qaroon's sins that he was wealthy. His sins were that he was arrogant, conceited and spreading corruption: "We grant that happy life in the hereafter only to those who do not seek to exalt themselves on Earth, nor yet to spread corruption. For the future belongs to the God-fearing." (28: 83) [i]"Islam in Perspective" - Arab News - 12 March 2001[/i] Wassalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh Haniff (with 2 'f's) |

""Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 25, 2013
Staff was very nice and room was almost perfect. The curtains over the window next to the walkway were gauzy; while they did prevent anyone looking into the room, they did not prevent lots of light getting into the room when we were trying to sleep. Overall it was a great room with a huge balcony.

Hotel shows some signs of wear. However, they are in the process of remodeling the hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Response by Holiday Inn Plattsburgh - Adirondack Area We appreciate the feedback. However, our hotel is newly renovated and constantly being maintained. Thank you.
Yes, we like that it was away from the highway. The people were most friendly.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Better choice in Plattsburgh"
The hotel is always my first choice when I live / visit in Plattsburgh. The room is clean and comfortable. The location is near super walmart and price chopper. all the fast-food and fine dining restaurants are in walking distance. The only thing is not really renovated is the bathroom. I wish it's bigger and better fixtures.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Continental breakfast was a bit disappointing but other than that it was a nice stayGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Beautiful Hotel"
Had a great stay. Was welcomed warmly which made the stay comfortable.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good hotel and convenient location"
Usually very finicky about hotels, but this one was a lot better than I expected. Staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the room was very clean. I felt comfortable staying there. My only complaint was the free continental breakfast: they didn't offer much to eat; just bagels, cereal etc, expected a real continental breakfast. Overall, still […] a good hotel. Would definitely stay there again. Also, very convenient location. Every store you could think of is within 5 mins and lots of restaurants. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Good hotel...clean and good staffGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Very nice room. Great location, close to where my business event was.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"excellent stay"
Rooms were super clean. I called front desk to ask for a rollaway cot. I had just finished phone call and literally 20 seconds later, no kidding, the knock at the door with the cot ! Amazing. We were very happy with our stay. They assisted me with locating my priority rewards number and the continental free breakfast was fresh and enough of a variety […] of Pastries, bagels toast, fruit cereal, etc. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

The staff and the hotel was great! The room was clean and new. The pool was awesome! Larger then most (laps were a pleasure), not overly hot or chlorinated, and the pool area did not have that heavy humid feel.Genuine Expedia guest review

Response by Holiday Inn Plattsburgh - Adirondack Area Thank you for writing a review, we will share your feedback with our management team. We are glad that you chose the Holiday Inn Plattsburgh.
"Ok exept driveway location and coffee"
Hotels in general need to provide better coffee. The driveway location is in between traffic lights for several shopping centers and highway entry and exit ramps. THis makes it impossible to turn left out of the drive. Otherwise, it was nicely redone since our last stay several years ago.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Response by Holiday Inn Plattsburgh - Adirondack Area We apologize for any inconveniences while entering or exiting our location. Also we are very sorry if you did not enjoy our coffee, we will share this feedback with our management team. Thank you for mentioning our renovation!
"ah ok"
The hotel was very clean. It lacks a breakfast and you only get coffee a short time in the a.m. I had to ask for more coffee and sugar all the time. our stay was for three nights and we left after two because it was just ok. The staff is pleasant but not to willing to go out of there way for you. It truly is not bad just not what I have learned to love […] at a Holiday Inn. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Response by Holiday Inn Plattsburgh - Adirondack Area Thank you for your feedback, it is always appreciated and used to better our service. Our hotel does offer continental breakfast daily, and I apologize for any inconveniences.

We had a very nice, comfortable stay. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. The room was upscale, with comfy pillows. We took a chance and tried the restaurant for dinner. The food was surprisingly good and the service was excellent. I would definitely recommend this hotel.Genuine Expedia guest review
Response by Holiday Inn Plattsburgh - Adirondack Area Thank you for choosing the Holiday Inn Plattsburgh! We are glad to hear that your found your stay confortable and very nice.
"Convenience and affordability without sacrifice"
The hotel was well equiped with a lounge, dinning area, and pool. The rooms were clean and in good repair. I was close to my appoinment at the airforce industrial park and slept well the night before. For the price and area it was more than I expected.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Extremely happy with my visit to the Plattsburgh holiday inn. I would recommend this hotel to others. Good job!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to all shopping!!"
Very nice hotel. The only thing is I've been to other Holiday Inn's and they're breakfast was bigger for free. This had the bear minimum.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"My experience"
There on business. Hotel was centrally located and clean. The staff I encountered were pleasant and friendly. The bar/restaurant was pretty good too!! Had daily specials and a decent menu choice. Only downside, I left my face cleanser behind and it's gone forever!!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Hotel had all we needed, however, the elevator was down and was not expected to be fixed while we were there. Carrying our luggage up 4 flights was not what we expected to do at 10 o'clock at night. Also was a little confused with the breakfast offered. We paid for the hot breakfast, but found a continental offered (we were not aware). We were not sure […] where to sit and even how & if we order....finally went to see someone at front desk and was taken care of. Should possibly have some signs or something to explain this process. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"My hotel stary"
This was hotel #3 on my vacation, and I must say it was the best of the 3..The front desk help was very nice. The hotel was very clean and well maintained, and it was close to all the sights that I wanted to see. My only complaint was that we had a long drive from Cape Cod, and when we arrived the elavator was broken, and we had to walk up 4 flights […] of steps with all of our bags..We were very unhappy with that fact, and we stayed for 2 nights, and it still was not fixed. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent location for shopping."
I enjoy very much my stay. There was a problem in the elevator. Carrying luggage up and down the stairs was no fun. I stayed there before when all were right and I had great time. Customer assistance was great. Very friendly and ready to help personal. I just left and I am already thinking to plan a return. All when the time and price are right. We […] will see! Keep up the good work and make sure the right people are doing the right job. Thank you for this opportunity to speak up. So long for now. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good hotel near Plattsburgh SUNY"
I stayed at the hotel because I was visiting SUNY Plattsburgh. It's a little over a mile to the campus. The hotel was clean and the staff was friendly.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great room for the money, Very Clean."
It was great the room was comfortable, the staff was friendly and it was clean. We had stayed the night before at the Sheraton in Burlington, this was a much better experience and much cheaper. I would highly recommend it.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Right next to Northway"
Very clean and friendly service from all staff.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Close to airport without the noise..."
A little high priced, but clean, comfortable and pleasant hotel. Staff was pleasant and very convenient location to the airport, but didn't hear plane traffic.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
This motel was convinently located on the highway and right across from Wal-Mart. It is an older motel that has been updated nicely. We enjoyed out stay. The only downside was the continental breakfast which only consisted of cereal, sweet rolls, toast, bagels, biscuits, and yogart.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"only in a pinch"
terribleGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice hotel"
Nice hotel. Was a great stopover on way to MontrealGenuine Expedia guest review
"A nice stop along the way"
Clean and comfortable, staff could have been nicer as their cell phone call seemed more important. Would have loved the pool to have stayed open until 11pm, otherwise a pleasant respite on the journey.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great place"
It would have helped if the front desk had initially informed us of all details upon checking in...such as the breakfast, locations of the gym, game room, pool, etc. Aside from that? It was a great stay and we would definitely stay once again. Mind you, we've stayed at other locales in the area over the years and sorry it's taken us so long to discover […] this one. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Worst Value for Money"
The hotel does not even have a movable curtain to avoid lights at night! Enjoy your sleepless night in the middle of nowhere with noises from the highway waking you up from time to time. Choose other cheaper hotels!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Did the trick"
Roomynrioms and nice enough for rhe proce plus a pool for the kids. Great place for a layover when headed to Jay to skiGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"nice hotel"
stayed 1 night and it was great only complaint the restaurant was empty so we chose to eat outsideGenuine Expedia guest review
"Bad Choice"
I went thru hotels.com to book this room...supposed to get a room with 1 king size bed...NOT...also, had the room furthest from the front door, closest to the highway, and closest to the ice machine in the hall. I wanted to upgrade to a room with a hot tub and was told they were all taken....right, there were like 10 cars in the parking lot. The room […] hade the old style heat/ac so it was either boiling or freezing....OTHER than that, it was clean. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Holiday inn platsburg ny"
This hotel would have gotten a five or a 4 for overall experience if it had not been for the freezing room. We arrived after midnight with two young kids couldnt wait to sleep... The room was so COLD. The thermostat was off we assume to save electricity. What was worst was that every single room was just as cold. So changing rooms wasn't even an option. […] One would think that since it was the dead of winter they could have atleast turned on the heat to a minimum for the comfort of the guest. It took our kids and ourselves forever to fall asleep due to the cold. Great place in other aspects. Maybe it's better in summer? Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Very close to all the malls."
The girl at the front desk was wonderful. I apparentley hit smoking when I reserved the room and she let me change it and let us be on the first floor near the pool since we have a three year old. She was vey helpful. Also room service was fast and polite and food was good. The only thing is when you do the upgrade for the breakfast the people to take […] the order took forever to even come out. We've stayed here twice and it was like that both time. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"A very nice hotel as usual with Holiday Inn"
Nice room average size with plenty of pillows of every softness to firm all identified with a tag. It was two cold nights and we had a hard time setting the heating properly. There was no fan in the restroom / bath so nasty odors stays in the room for long time if you leave the door open... Swimming pool was clean and jacuzzi was perfect. $20 extra […] for breakfast included was a very good investment as they serve very nice ones. Not always the same sides in the plate as we ordered two days in a row the same plate, one day with potatoes, salsa and sour cream, the second day nothing. Beds were a little too firm. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Close to all the shops:)"
Very nice hotel. The pool was great, my three year old son loved it. We will definitley stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Holiday Inn at Plattsburgh-great stay"
The Holiday Inn at Plattsburgh is where I will be each time I need to visit my SUNY Plattsburgh student! Close to the campus-clean and quiet...great value with the continental breakfast included.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Clean & Comfortable"
Hotel was clean & comfortable, staff was friendly, checked in late with no problem, we did not use the restaurant so I don't know how the food is, room service menu had a good selection though. Located right off Interstae 87-easy access.Genuine Expedia guest review
Hotel rooms and dining room for breakfast are dark and old . Furniture quality and arrangement in the room are poor. Breakfast is free but mediocre, There were not many varieties of food to choose from. Location of hotel is reasonable. It is within one hour to all attractions of adirondack and lake placid.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"We would stay again..."
The hotel is clean and fresh. Beds were very comfortable. As far as the lounge is concerned the hotel booklet reads it is open until closing?? When we returned back from being out all day, we went to the lounge at 11pm and they were closed along with the game room. A little disappointing. But all in all a great experience and would definately stay […] again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

We were only there for one night and it was the best night of sleep on our whole vacation. Very comfortable room - even being so close to the interstate.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Holiday Inn-Plattsburg-Great location"
This hotel was in a great location (just down the road from the ferry to Vermont) and right in the middle of a business section with many choices for eating and shopping. I would definitely stay here again. Easy on and off from the major highways.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Holiday Inn Plattsburgh - Close to SUNY"
The front desk personnel at the hotel were all very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. The hotel was very close to the SUNY campus. Would stay again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Enjoyed its location and the silence at night. A pricey area but had great staff and clean. I liked it so much and would return in a heartbeat.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Blueado Mini m5e uses a small-form-factor (SFF) case from AOpen that measures 12.75 by 4.5 by 8 inches and includes a socket 479 motherboard for Intel Pentium M processors. The AOpen logos are covered up by Blueado stickers, which isn't the slickest look in the world, but is one we've seen on other systems, such as the Polywell Poly 975 MCE. The case is tiny compared to anything this side of a Mac Mini, but we question its overall quality (particularly at its price). The chassis has a cheap, plastic feel to it, and the front faceplate fell off in our hands the first time we handled the system, but it snapped back on with no further trouble.
The system's front panel is dominated by a large power button and a double-layer DVD burner. Behind two small front-panel doors are a media card reader; audio jacks, including S/PDIF; two USB 2.0 jacks; and both six-pin and four-pin FireWire connections. The back panel is almost impossibly crowded for such a small PC--so much so, in fact, that several connections have been bumped off to a video dongle. Besides serial PS2 and VGA ports, you'll find a six-jack audio connection that covers S/PDIF, mic inputs, and 5.1-channel surround sound. The generously illustrated manual shows how to hook up a variety of different types of speakers.
Aside from the standard VGA connection, video outputs are accessed via an external dongle. With it, you can output your video through composite, S-Video, or component jacks (your only HDTV option). DVI is not supported, which is problematic if you want to hook it up to a large LCD monitor, but the company promises to add it in the m5e's successor.
One of the two rear USB 2.0 jacks is taken up with a wireless networking adapter; the other is intended for the included Microsoft Media Center keyboard, leaving you out of luck if you have additional USB devices to connect and don't want them hanging off the front panel.
Inside the case, there's a 200GB hard drive that many heavy DVR users will find inadequate, plus you'll find 1GB of RAM and a single-tuner Hauppauge TV tuner card. The tiny case precludes much expansion, although one RAM slot and a single half-height PCI slot are empty.
As expected, the 2.0GHz Intel Pentium M 760 CPU didn't fare too well on CNET Labs' SysMark 2004 application benchmarks. Like another recent Pentium M system, the Shuttle XPG G5, it scored 30 percent below the 2.0GHz AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ in the Polywell MiniBox2 939NP (another SFF Media Center), and 20 percent below the Apple Mac Mini Core Duo, with its 2.0GHz Intel Core Duo. With only onboard video, the Blueado Mini m5e isn't capable of playing much more than the handful of built-in casual games included as Media Center plug-ins.
Running Windows XP Media Center Edition, the Blueado Mini m5e doesn't include much in the way of bundled apps but does include some custom Media Center software. When you order a system, the company asks you via a Web form about your local cable company and what kind of A/V connections you plan to use. The Blueado Mini m5e arrives preset to those preferences, which you can change later, and they are displayed on a My Blueado page within the Media Center menu, a unique and useful feature that you won't find on mainstream Media Center PCs.

In adult films, the adult characters always seem to last for time. Well, you can last for time too if you understand how to prevent early orgasms. It's a lot simpler than what you might think.Not only will you lastly be able to talk about how you last just provided that adult characters do, but furthermore, your lady will be well happy. One of the most typical issues that females have about their men is that they don't last lengthy enough during sex.However, most of them never discuss it because they're frightened that they might harm their person's thoughts. Discovering how to go more amount of time in the room is very easy and it doesn't take lengthy. Actually, you can see outcomes as soon as today.Ejaculating ahead of your energy and effort is almost never due to any actual issues. This is a advantage because that indicates that healing this issue will be a lot simpler and most likely, it will be something that you can cure without anyone else knowing.One of the best techniques that you can use to become a better and more durable sweetheart is the squash strategy. It's very easy to understand. When you're having sex and you begin to experience like you're hitting the factor of no come back, just use some demand below the tip of your member. This will cause the our system to go out from your member and the sensation of the upcoming climax will go away.Just squash using your thumbs and index finger and carry them there for 10 to 20 mere a few moments and the sensation will go away.There are other techniques and techniques that you can use to go more time while having sex with your spouse or sweetheart and many of them are just as easy to understand as the squash strategy is.

No excuses, with Chlamydia, MOST people don't know they have it. In fact, at the SAFE Clinic almost 18% of tests done in the last 3 months of 2011 showed Chlamydia. That's almost one in FIVE, more than double the usual. That was even before New Years and Australia day! You could be spreading it around town, without even knowin' it.
"Whoa, I'd rather not know"
Better to find out, cuz it could be causing you some silent damage. Besides, it's easy to treat and the antibiotics are FREE too! If you've had sex, you should get yourself a test. Plus there's a free BONUS with this great Valentine's gift. Easy Pee-zy also tests for Gonorrhoea. And there's more of that goin' around town too.

Here's a trailer for the game. Being an agnostic, I'm lost on the idea of a god turning me into a small glowing dot, but what the hey. It's still a pretty game.

Senior midfielders Harry St. John (Essex Fells, N.J./West Essex) and Tim Skeen (Baltimore, Md./Towson) headline the returnees after finishing first and tied for second on the team in scoring last season.
A preseason Honorable Mention All-American, St. John tallied 43 points on 30 goals and 13 assists, while Skeen totaled 42 points on 17 goals and a team-high 25 assists last season. The duo already rank 28th and 30th, respectively, on the school's all-time scoring list. St. John has 107 career points and Skeen has 105 career points.

With the advent of more accessible gear and powerful postprocessing tools, underwater photography has a new lease on life. Here are eight shooters who prove that shooting in the deep isn't only about fish and turtles.
Exploring the murky depths and illuminating the life below—that's the real purpose of underwater photography, right? Not anymore. Sure, you still find plenty of Jacques Cousteau wannabes, but there is a treasure chest of new photography, from fine art to portrait, sports, commercial, fashion, and even family and pet photographers. Everyone is taking the plunge.
Enforcing the code of the #nofilter tag
For some people, the #nofilter tag is serious business. For the unfamiliar, it's a hashtag used on mega-photo-sharing service, Instagram to indicate when a posted image hasn't been subjected to one of their filters. Users put it on their photos like a badge of honor, proclaiming their photographic skills. Unfortunately, some of them are liars, which is where the Filter Fakers Tumblr comes in.
Add blur to your fireworks bursts this summer for a cool visual effect
Every summer David Johnson of Ottawa makes his way to the international fireworks competition in Gatineau, Quebec, camera in tow. But for years his photos, though cool, didn't quite capture "the ooh and ahh experience of actually being there," as he puts it. Then he discovered focus blur.Similar to zoom blur, this technique involves manipulating the lens during exposure—in this case, by manually focusing (or defocusing). It requires exposures of a quarter of a second or longer.
From adding artistry to your action shots to zinging zip into your zebra portraits, this year's annual how-to special is a veritable encyclopedia of photographic fun. Read on for an alphabet of inspiration.

Explore the exciting new tools in the free beta of Adobe's Photoshop Lightroom 5
Debbie Grossman
The controversy over this year's winner drags on
Earlier this year, Paul Hansen's shot of a funeral procession in Palestine won the World Press Photo award. Soon after, it began suffering criticism that it had been "faked with Photoshop." Then, the whole thing died down. This morning, however, things bubbled back up to the surface and World Press Photo set a few experts on the case to decide once and for all if the image was a composite. The verdict came back in favor of Hansen.
All the new stuff from Adobe's announcements
Each year, Adobe throws a big conference called MAX to show off some of their new stuff. Today is the open of the 2013 conference, and with that comes a keynote. It's usually filled with all kinds of new stuff, so I'll be updating this post live and Tweeting about any new stuff as it's announced. Stick with us!12:39 PM: Looks like the Adobe livestream servers are getting crushed at the moment. Lots of demand.
What would you want Lightroom to look like on your iPad?
The Adobe MAX conference is starting soon, and with that has come an influx of "sneak peaks", giving us a look at new things Adobe is eventually hoping to release.
In the future, you might be able to apply IS after the shot has been taken
Back in 2011, the internet was blown away when Adobe showed off a future Photoshop feature that could take an image suffering from camera shake and fix it automatically. It sounds fantastic, but we haven't heard much about it since then. Now, however, in a promotion for their upcoming MAX conference, they're offering one of their famous "sneak peaks" and showing the filter in a much more realistic setting.

1. The part that stood out the most to me about the Rock's promo last Monday (which all wrestling bloggers are mandated, by law, to react to) was how he all but glossed over the Miz. In that it reminded me of this. Because I relate all things to the Simpsons, mainly. But really, Rocky let the Miz off easy! (Something that the Miz ran with in his promo, which I liked a lot more than Cena's response to the Rock, which I'll get to later.)
2. I missed the PPV. I wanted to see it, for the Raw chamber and the possibility of a feel good moment for Lawler, but between having barely paid off my purchase of the Rumble and other priorities taking precedence (which mainly involved trying not to die every ten minutes in Dead Space 2, but that's still a kind of priority), I wound up skipping it. The recaps I've read make it sound worth watching it some point. If nothing else, I really want to see why people other than WWE management (and Chantal) are impressed by Drew McIntyre for the first time ever. Well, that and John Morrison trying to single handedly make everyone forget about all the crazy shit Jeff Hardy and Shelton Benjamin used to do to defy gravity. That sounds like fun.
3. As great a moment as it could have been for Lawler to win the WWE Championship, given both the angle and the loss of his mother, in the long run it's better that the Miz is keeping the belt. If nothing else, he's going to be the first Money in the Bank winner to keep the belt long enough to defend it at 'Mania, so that's definitely a feather in his cap.
4. I wasn't crazy about Cena dusting off his dis rap skills to finally respond to the Rock (well, without a bowl of cereal), but he cut a promo as close to what he did in the pre-PG days as he could. If nothing else, I did appreciate the use of the pinwheel for one of his dick jokes. Well, that and his calling himself the Doctor of Thuganomics reminded me of a running gag a friend and I had in college about applying to the Thuganomics program. In retrospect, that probably would have been a better choice than what I actually went for my degree in.
But I digress. It was pretty much the only way Cena could respond to the Rock and not look like a total wiener, so hey, mission accomplished! He only sort of looks like a wiener now! Pretty much the usual amount given his ring attire. (I do appreciate that he wears his hat straight. I don't want to move in on Chantal's territory, mainly because I know very little and care less about fashion, but the sideways baseball cap drives me crazy. So at least he's not that douchey.)
5. This was a good night for promos overall. Punk and Miz were excellent as usual, Lawler showed great intensity in finally laying down a challenge to Cole, and we got the big stare down/signature taunt off between Triple H and the Undertaker. It's nice to see a big segment like that play out like something out of an N64 game. I also found it funny that they crammed two big returns together one after the other.
6. I was surprised that Triple H didn't just bash 'Taker's head in with a sledgehammer. Kind of a shame to see him abandon the kind of cunning plan that got him that Cerebral Assassin nickname all those years (and other nicknames) ago.
7. As much as it will probably annoy Aaron that I'm going with three comments on the UT/HHH and not Rock/Cena, I seriously have to ask; was the Undertaker supposed to be hanging out in that spooky cabin the whole month they were teasing his return (and, accidentally, making people mark out for Sting more than TNA ever did in the process)? What did he do?
8. Okay, I apologize to everyone, but I have one more; they should begin all Undertaker intros with those Johnny Cash lines from now on, shouldn't they?
9. Between Dolph Ziggler's World Heavyweight Title reign that lasted about one segment, cumulatively, and tonight's tag title changes, is WWE trying to break some kind of record for shortest, lamest title reigns ever in the span of a week (which was surely set by Vince Russo)? And what will the consequences be if they do? I mean, at least we don't have Wacky Mismatched Tag Team Champions that hate each other, but I'm seriously worried that the booking team may be trying to summon Lovecraftian Dark Gods via their weird booking choices. Just a feeling I get every once in a while. I'm worried that they'll find a way for Kofi to vacate the Intercontinental Championship and pin himself to win it in the same night now, with Alberto destroying his arm and everything.
10. While this is damning with some pretty faint praise, we're off to the best start for a Wrestlemania build in years. An upside to a predictable Pay-Per-View, to be sure. Hopefully we get more Rock in the six weeks until 'Mania, but even if we don't things are still building quite well.

Technical Correction
Definition of 'Technical Correction'
A decrease in the market price of an asset or entire market after extensive price increases. A technical correction occurs even when there is no evidence that the increasing price trend should cease. It is often caused when investors temporarily slow down their purchases of securities, which commonly leads to a pullback toward a short-term support level.
Investopedia explains 'Technical Correction'
A technical correction is a drop in stock or market prices when there is no fundamental reason for a decrease. After a steady increase in value, investors may become more cautious buyers at the higher prices and look to reevaluate the market, resulting in a decrease in purchases. The drop in purchase volume will stop the upward price trend from continuing while the market re-evaluates the short-term direction.

MARQUETTE TOWNSHIP -- The Marquette Township Planning Commission has tabled the issue of raising chickens for egg production in urban areas until later in August.
According to Jason McCarthy, Marquette Township Planning/Zoning Administrator, more information is needed before a decision can be reached.
At Wednesday's public hearing, issues of health, predator attraction, cleanliness, noise, impact to property values and precedent were concerns brought up by residents.
McCarthy says that the proposal has very strict limits for those who would like to raise chickens in the urban areas of Marquette Township. The proposal includes the interested homeowner needing a special use permit, receiving written consent from all neighbors, and having no more than six hens--roosters would not be allowed. Also, the birds would need to be kept in a coop or pen at all times.
The Marquette Township Planning Commission will have another public hearing on the issue on August 24, 6:30 p.m., at the Township Hall.
