Traditional kokeshi ningyo are Japanese dolls with a colourful history and controversial reputation. They have been associated with miscarried babies and infanticide. They were guardians of children and keepers of their souls. Today, the word kokeshi is a sexual innuendo due to the phallic shape.
Kokeshi were originally souvenirs for Japanese tourists and offered entertainment to children but developed into something much more. The dolls are fascinating, shocking, sad or mundane depending on the perspective. click below to read on..

General Hospital Recaps
GH Week of June 22, 2009
Nikolas tried to teach a snarky Rebecca how to waltz, but she insisted on leading. They danced as thunder crashed ominously. Then she suddenly dashed away — leaving a shoe behind. She made it to the pier, where Ethan was waiting. She babbled about romantic waltzing being "magical," and how she felt like Emily while dancing. Ethan pointed out they want Nik to treat her like Emily, but she noted it's not easy to be objective in such a romantic setting. Back on Spoon Island, Nik told Alfred the evening was "quite a success." Nik went ashore to return her shoe, and Ethan quickly covered by confusing Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella. Alone, Rebecca apologized for running off, but the evening was too perfect and felt "so right." She agreed to return Wyndemere, and they kissed. As he slipped her shoe back on, Lulu and Lucky arrived, forcing Nik and Rebecca to stammer explanations. Back on Spoon Island, Nik brought her up to the bedroom, where he admitted the dancing was magical for him, too, and he wanted to give her some of the happiness she gave him. They kissed.
As Jax pinned a struggling Michael to the living room couch, Morgan begged his brother to stop, so he doesn't upset their mother. Jax let him up, and the boys went upstairs. Carly defended Michael, but Jax was concerned the youth was getting worse, and suggested it may be better if Michael doesn't live with them, because of the stress on her. "How am I supposed to send my son away?" she wailed. Jax said Michael subconsciously feels he can lose control with her since she loves him unconditionally. She worried about giving the impression of giving up on him. She fretted that living with Sonny puts Michael back in the line of fire — and close to Claudia. Upstairs, Michael told Morgan he has brain damage and his mind doesn't work like it should, but he will get better eventually. "You're the big brother now," he told Morgan. Michael packed a bag and told Morgan he can't stay because the only way to get better is to go to Sonny's. Then he jumped out the window. Morgan went downstairs and told Carly that Michael left.
Sonny and Claudia got busy on the couch. Afterward, he insisted that should never happen again, while she encouraged him not to feel guilty. He called her "so damn treacherous." When the phone rang, Claudia answered and barked "wrong number," arousing Sonny's suspicions. In the woods, Johnny noticed a sniper's laser painting Jason's head and pushed him clear in the nick of time. Together, they got into a shoot-out with the unseen gunmen. Later, Johnny appeared in Sonny's study, and Claudia was happy to see him. She was less pleased to see Jason come in the door. Jason reported they were ambushed, and took out all but one shooter. In the woods, the lone surviving gunman limped with a bullet wound. He dialed his cell and reported "It all went south," because Johnny protected Jason. Later, at the garage, Claudia demanded an explanation why Johnny saved Jason. Johnny said Jason saved his life because Uncle Rudy's men would have killed both of them. She swore he would have been okay. Then Olivia arrived. Claudia snarked at Liv until Johnny threw his sister out. Glad to be alive, he kissed Olivia. Back at Sonny's, he and Jason were discussing the ambush when Michael arrived and asked to live there. Sonny called Carly to assure her Michael's okay. Michael apologized for running away, and she told him he can stay. Then she told Morgan his brother will come back when he's better.
Jax met Jason at the pier, and got a recap of the Michael/Carly kerfuffle. Jason said it's a bad time for Michael to move in with Sonny. Jax worried about the violence, but Jason vowed, "Michael will never get caught in the crossfire again." Back at Sonny's, Sonny told Michael he's proud, and made the right choice. Later, Carly discovered Morgan was missing. Morgan wandered in the woods until he was grabbed by the rogue gunman.
Nikolas and Rebecca had vigorous sex, then she dreamed about seeing him dancing with Emily — who told her that Nik will always belong to Emily. Nik later found Rebecca outside. "It feels like I'm living someone else's dream," she said. Nik promised he never thought about Emily while he was making love to Rebecca. She suggested going home because she doesn't want to rush things, but he asked her to stay because you never know how much time you have.
In the woods, the gunman held Morgan at gunpoint. Morgan identified himself and warned his captor he will be killed. "Being Sonny's son makes you a perfect hostage," he replied, adding that he grew up in Bensonhurst and hates nature. Morgan realized Jason shot the guy. Back home, Carly searched frantically, then called to tell Michael that his brother was gone. Michael suggested he and Carly enter the woods from each end and work toward the middle to find Morgan. Dom asked Morgan for help using his GPS, but the boy knew the road is a half-mile away. When Carly arrived, she was held at gunpoint, too. When Michael saw an opening he jumped the guy, but was overpowered in the fight. "You people are really starting to piss me off," he growled, even as Michael threatened his life. But the gunman didn't want hostages, he just wanted to get away. Carly talked him into lowering his gun and leaving them alone. The gunman said she should tell Sonny that he could have shot them all but chose not to. Thus, Sonny owes him — and he just might collect some day. Then he ran off. Michael admitted he did everything wrong. Carly rebuked the boys for running away, but pointed out that she loves them even when they mistakes because she is their mother and, "I love you anyway."
Andrea scolded Mayor Floyd making her protect him from himself once again. When Ric walked in, she said, "Our plan is very quickly going south." He reminded her it's her plan. Andrea said they have to make the lawsuit go away, so they should settle with Patrick and Matt, or else get Brianna's family to drop the case. Ric asked if she wants to know what really happened in the hotel room. Meanwhile, Patrick told Robin that Brianna's autopsy indicated she was not pregnant or doing drugs. Patrick summoned Maxie, who recapped that Sam followed the mayor to the gift shop and back to the room. Robin reviewed the autopsy and noticed it showed two bruises in the same spot — suggesting someone deliberately hit Brianna in the same spot to cover up a killing blow. "I think we've got a murder here," she said.
Sonny told Claudia that Michael will stay with them, and she was thrilled. Michael cautioned her that he's dangerous. Later, Sonny told Claudia he will and eliminate the person who ordered Jason ambushed. Claudia insisted Johnny is loyal. Sonny called Johnny, who was busy making out with Olivia. She answered his phone and said Johnny is "off the clock," but Sonny summoned him immediately, "with or without pants." Claudia needled Sonny about Johnny "banging that ho" Olivia. Later, Claudia intercepted Johnny and warned him to cover for her. When Sonny appeared, they feigned fighting over Olivia. Sonny demanded to know how the snipers knew to attack Jason, wondering if Johnny saw a chance to reclaim the Zacchara crew and territory. Johnny said he put his life on the line for Sonny and saved Jason. Later, Johnny went to Olivia's place and asked if his sister is right — is Olivia using him to get to close to Sonny? She was annoyed, but said when it comes to Sonny, she's "been there, done that, got the T-shirt." She doesn't hook up with married men. And if she wanted Sonny, she would say so. Meanwhile, Claudia scolded Sonny for endangering Johnny. Sonny screamed that he doesn't get along with Johnny. She pointed out that her baby will be heir to everything Corinthos and Zacchara — but Sonny countered that if Ric is the father, the baby "won't be heir to squat."He stormed upstairs, and she went outside — when the wounded gunman stumbled up. She told him he shouldn't be there, and he "thanked" her for the bullet. "Can't wait to repay the favor," he smirked.
Just after Robin and Patrick told Epiphany they think Brianna was murdered, Andrea "confessed" to hiring a PI to trail her errant husband. Andrea feared a full-blown scandal if the case goes to trial. She noted she once had ambitions of her own, but put them aside for the good of Garrett's career. Patrick said he was more concerned with Matt's career. Meanwhile, Epiphany informed Matt he was barred from his own office and records, which had been subpoenaed in the lawsuit. Maxie watched the drama, then tried to break into the office, Toussaint stopped her. Matt eavesdropped as Maxie spun a tale of looking to hook up with Matt. When Matt stepped in, Toussaint still refused to allow access to the office, so they strolled off. Matt apologized for roughing up Spinelli, and Maxie admitted she's trying to help him get out of an unjust lawsuit. But she still doesn't like him. He suggested she get to know him by following him on Twitter, as DrMattHunter. Later, Patrick and Robin visited the mayor to discuss Brianna's injuries. Floyd admitted that as a law-and-order candidate, an affair would bury his career. When Patrick said the autopsy pointed to murder, Floyd said he was in love with Brianna. He told them his story: He got into politics as an idealist, but after getting elected he learned politics is a dirty business and power is negotiated. The constant compromises killed something inside him — and his relationship with Andrea. Brianna saw the better man he used to be, and Floyd was ready to divorce Andrea. So if Brianna was murdered, he wants the killer found. Meanwhile, Andrea told Ric she didn't want Garrett's tawdry mistake to derail all her plans. Later, Patrick and Robin saw Andrea arguing with Matt ... and she slapped him!
Sam scolded Kristina for stealing Alexis' car and going to the club, pointing out that those moves were obvious cries for attention. Kristina insisted she just wants to help others at her own expense. When Alexis returned and mentioned the Jake's incident, Sam was really disappointed. Kristina explained she just wants to help her brother. Alexis pointed out she has to be wary because Michael has brain damage. Kristina repeated the mantra drilled into her: "Keep your eyes on the prize." Michael, meanwhile, told Jason about the gunman. Jason promised to find him, and Michael wanted to help. In fact, Michael asked Jason to teach him the business; he's always dreamed of taking over one day. Jason refused, worried about the danger. Claudia overheard Michael talking about the gunman, and went to her room, where she was hiding the man, Dominic. She tried to smother him with a pillow, but he overpowered her. He warned her that if he goes down, he will take her down along with him. When she asked how Jason survived, Dom said Johnny saved Jason, and questioned whose side Johnny is on. Claudia rushed to the garage to question her brother. Johnny pointed out that if he had survived an ambush that had killed Jason, Sonny would have killed him. Johnny told his sister to get used to being a Corinthos soldier.
Sam later found Jason at the penthouse, and ranted about Kristina and Michael. Jason worried that maybe he should take his own advice and allow Michael to chart his own path and join the "family business." Sam suggested keeping Michael out of the mob is a good idea, and Jason always has Michael's best interests at heart. Meanwhile, Kristina visited Michael to apologize, but he said he's not mad at her. But he is mad that Jason won't teach him the business. Suddenly, they heard Alexis in the house, looking for Sonny. Kristina ran upstairs to hide while Michael occupied Alexis. Claudia eavesdropped as Alexis lectured Michael about Kristina being a good kid with a bright future. Michael started getting torqued up, but Claudia burst in to defuse the situation. Claudia said she knows all about private-school good girls who rebel against overly controlling mothers and miss their fathers. Alexis said she doesn't want Kristina hanging around Claudia. Michael went to the garage and asked Johnny to teach him the business, but Johnny also balked, noting, "I'm not gonna be the reason you get shot again" — just as Jason walked in! "What do you mean 'again'?" Jason demanded. Back at Sonny's, Kristina ducked into Claudia's room and ran into a scary Dominic, who snarled at her: "Do as I say, and there'll be a quarter on your pillow in the morning."
Andrea criticized Matt in front of everyone at the hub, until Ric pulled her off him and she stalked off. Andrea said her husband's career will be destroyed by a trial, and Robin told her settling makes Patrick and Matt look bad. Matt asked Ric to take the case, just as Diane arrived to serve them with papers. Ric told them, "I can't help you." He revealed he's leaving Port Charles because he got "an offer I can't refuse." Later, Ric told Claudia he's going to Los Angeles to take a job (a legal one), but he will check on her and the paternity of her baby. "Don't worry about me," he said, getting in the elevator. "I'll be back."
Johnny told Jason, "We're all responsible for Michael being shot." Michael warned Jason that if he won't help him join the organization, someone else will. Michael asked why Jason had a choice but he doesn't. Johnny pointed out that Jason never should have been allowed to join the mob. He said Sonny took advantage of a brain-damaged kid to create an enforcer. Michael Jason if he would choose a different life. Jason said no — but pointed out their brian injuries are different, and cutting off the Quartermaines was a big mistake. He said Michael has better choices available. Jason said Michael getting shot was his fault, and, "I will never fail you again." Later, Claudia came to the garage to ask Johnny for help with Dominic.
At Sonny's Kristina offered to forget she saw Dominic, but he begged her to fetch medical supplies, food and car keys. Claudia called Alexis a "selfish controlling bitch,"and said Michael needs Kristina and his family. Alexis said Kristina can see her brother under supervision, but Alexis did not want her near Claudia.Sonny appeared and accused Alexis of trying to keep Kristina away from him.When she she said she only wanted to keep the kids safe, he pointed out that sleeping with Jerry Jacks wasn't safe. Sonny said he kept his distance from Kristina after Michael got shot for her own good, but is concerned she doesn't understand. Kristina eavesdropped as Alexis and Sonny discussed how she doesn't want Kristina to suffer the same violent fate as Michael. Later, Kristina brought Dom the medical supplies and a sandwich, — but no car keys. Then he listened to her complain about her family woes. Downstairs, Michael and Jason arrived. Jason told Sonny about Michael wanting to learn the business. "That will never happen," Sonny declared. He ordered Jason to find the gunman, "and get rid of him." Then he told Michael he's never turning the organization over to any of his kids. Upstairs, Kristina was about to lead him out when Claudia arrived and pretended not to know him — demanding to know what he wanted with "my 16-year-old stepdaughter?"
Maxie found Spinelli embracing Mercedes in the PI office. "It's always the nanny!" she fumed. He explained it was a platonic hug, because Mercedes' undocumented cousin was the one who saw Mayor Floyd in the hotel, and Spinelli vowed to help legalize her. "I would die if I thought you were gonna be with anyone else," Maxie moaned. He noticed she called him her boyfriend. Then Patrick and Robin arrived, and Spinelli told them he uncovered Brianna's secret account, which was getting over $100,000 from the mayor — was she blackmailing him? Robin suggested bringing everything to Mac, but Maxie pointed out the police would make trouble for Spinelli — and even accuse Patrick and Robin of being accessories, since they were alone with Brianna. Diane told Alexis about Ric leaving town. Alexis feared Molly will be heartbroken.
After hearing about the gunman, Jax suggested sending Michael to a school, which horrified Carly. Later, Jason scolded Carly for not telling him about the gunman. She demanded that Jason make Michael move back home with her, or she will force him to move in with the Quartermaines.
When Johnny arrived at Sonny's, he eavesdropped as Sonny lectured Michael. "You are just a child with a brain injury" Sonny yelled, saying he shouldn't waste second chance at life "I'm a criminal," Sonny moaned, who built his house with stolen money. People fear him "because I got blood all over my hands." He said Michael will have a better life, "whether you like it or not!"
Carly insisted to Jason that the Quartermaine mansion was the safest place for Michael. When Jason related how Michael asked to learn the business, Carly was furious, and more convinced than ever that the Q's were the answer. Meanwhile, Sonny told Michael he won't risk his life again, but Michael was adamant. "I just wanna be like you," he moaned. "You will never be like me!" Sonny yelled. Sonny said when he joined the mob he was too young to know better; Michael can go to college. Michael wondered if his father was ashamed of him because he's "a retard." And he's not his biological son. "Biology means spit," Sonny spat. He nearly got weepy singing Michael's praises as a "strong, loyal, determined" kid who beat a coma. "You can have whatever you want," Sonny declared. As long as it's also what Sonny wants, Michael noted. Carly went to the Quartermaines' and announced Michael can live there. Monica was happy, but Tracy theorized that Michael was looking to cash in. Edward declared him welcome. Carly insisted on some ground rules: She always has access to Michael; no one can badmouth Sonny, Jason or her; everyone treats Michael with respect; and she can pull him at any time. Tracy wondered why Alan's children get fussed over but not hers. Tracy warned everyone that Michael is a Corinthos, not a Quartermaine. Monica feared Michael won't last. "That depends on you" Jason said. He explained about Michael's anger, and Monica related that to Jason's anger after his accident. He apologized, but she admitted she had pushed him away. Edward suggested that Jason move home with Michael.
Lulu brought Ethan to Kelly's to introduce him to Cameron and Jake. Lucky was furious: "You're a con and I'm a cop," he snarled. Lulu and Ethan left in disgust. Elizabeth noticed Jason playing with Jake before the family went inside, where Lucky called Ethan "living proof" that Luke cheated on his mother. Liz suggested Lucky is transferring his anger at her for cheating with Jason and having Jake.
Johnny visited Olivia, who blindfolded him as they kissed. Later, she invited him to stick around while she went back to work. At Sonny's, Kristina told Claudia she has no idea who Dominic is, and begged her not to tell her father. Claudia agreed to sneak Kristina out, and the girl related how she is the golden child who is expected to do no wrong. Johnny went upstairs got past the whole shooting-at-each-other thing with Dominic to sneak him out. But Dom did not want to leave town! Outside the gates, Kristina summoned Michael, who mentioned the fight with Sonny. Kristina said Sonny doesn't care about her. Michael said Alexis keeps Sonny away from her, but Kristina pointed out that if Sonny Corinthos wanted to see her, he would. Inside, Sonny told Claudia about Michael. She suggested giving him something he doesn't know he wants. Later, Johnny visited Olivia, who blindfolded him as they kissed. Afterward, she invited him to stick around while she went back to work. Later, Sonny took Michael outside to present him with a brand-new sports car — just as Carly strolled by. Michael was overwhelmed.
Robin and Patrick brought Mac and Alexis the autopsy report and explained that it pointed to murder. Spinelli mentioned the payment Brianna was receiving from Mayor Floyd, and that was enough for Mac to demand the mayor be arrested. Alexis was hesitant to rush it, but Mac wondered if she was wary about the political pressure, so she set out to get the warrants. Spinelli worried the real killer would get away. Robin told Patrick they have proved Matt was not at fault — and felt proud of herself. Kristina arrived, and told Robin she was looking for Alexis to give her a tour of her workplace for an AP class she's taking. Maxie and Spinelli returned to the PI office, where she kissed her "cerebral man of danger," and suggested celebrating solving the case. But he abruptly stopped her from unbuttoning his shirt. When Alexis returned to the police station, a news crew was waiting. When the mayor arrived, Mac arrested him oncamera. Floyd called it "an outrageous farce," proclaimed his innocence, and charged that DA Alexis cannot prosecute, because, "We were lovers!"

Basel III and Basel II
What are the Basel III and Basel II Regulatory Frameworks?
Basel III is a global regulatory standard on bank capital adequacy, stress testing and market liquidity risk agreed upon by the members of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The third installment of the Basel Accords was developed in response to the deficiencies in financial regulation revealed by the late-2000s financial crisis. Basel III strengthens bank capital requirements and introduces new regulatory requirements on bank liquidity and bank leverage. In Basel III, a more formal scenario analysis is applied.
Basel II is the second of the Basel Accords, (now extended and effectively superseded by Basel III), which are recommendations on banking laws and regulations issued by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. Basel II, published in June 2004, was intended to create an international standard for banking regulators to control how much capital banks need to put aside to guard against the types of financial and operational risks banks face.
Who is Impacted by the Basel III and Basel II Accords?
All financial institutions, but the impact may differ by jurisdiction, types and size. Global Systemic Important Banks (G-SIBs) will be subject to higher core tier 1 capital requirements. There are currently 29 G-SIBs.
How Can Experian Help my Business With Basel III and II Compliance?
Experian can review and assess the bank's portfolio(s) and provide a gap analysis and project design that meets Basel III requirements, followed by data prep, development, integration, and validation of loss projections using the following models:
- Probability of Default (PD)
- Loss Given Default (LGD)
- Exposure at Default (EAD)
Additionally, evaluate strategic initiatives to help offset the potential impact by optimizing risk-weighted assets (RWA) strategies and capital usage.
Stress Testing and Capital Assessment
Experian understands the importance of measuring capital adequacy, stress testing and loss reserve estimation reporting and brings an extensive background in modeling, banking, risk management and simulation to our clients.

Meego touch framework is only in maintenance mode now and kind of deprecated (although that was from MeeGo side that now no longer exists), but elsewhere the Wayland compositors that can be based on Qt Compositor framework can manage similar level of performance as the custom mcompositor, and Qt Components (https://qt.gitorious.org/qt-components) is continued to be developed.
It's more about missing media coverage that makes it easy to assume N9's UI has hidden proprietary magic. One can also study their X.org and Qt sources among else to see if there are some optimizations.
They just finally had mature technology (Linux + Qt) and resources and learnings to pull off a smartphone like Nokia N9. Hopefully some other vendors see the potential here, and not to forget the rumored Nokia's Qt for next billion either.
Harmattan UI is mostly open source
Posted Oct 6, 2011 8:03 UTC (Thu) by alison (✭ supporter ✭, #63752) [Link]
I have yet to hear even the slightest hint that Meltemi, the project to which you refer, will be open-sourced.
> Wayland compositors that can be based on Qt Compositor framework can manage similar level of performance as the custom mcompositor, and Qt Components (https://qt.gitorious.org/qt-components) is continued to be developed.
True, qt-lighthouse and qml-scenegraph look great, but having great components is different from having a great UI like Harmattan. Harmattan isn't really even running on MeeGo, but on Maemo 6. That's why it uses the deprecated Touch Framework.
The situation is such a mess and the public code remains incomplete, so I think that no one will touch it.
Posted Oct 6, 2011 11:28 UTC (Thu) by tajyrink (subscriber, #2750) [Link]
Yes that was a separate mention from the Harmattan UI's open sourceness. I'm semi-happy to see also proprietary UX:s made on top of great FLOSS stack like Linux + freedesktop.org + Qt, because they prove a few things on their own part. That said, I don't care about Nokia's possible future plans in that sense that much since I'd also guess that if there's something coming, it'll be less open than Harmattan. But still, it'd be great to see fancy Qt based phones.
"Harmattan isn't really even running on MeeGo, but on Maemo 6."
That's mostly irrelevant, since the free components can anyway incorporated in any (completely) free distribution. And that's why I was speaking about Harmattan, not MeeGo.
"The situation is such a mess and the public code remains incomplete, so I think that no one will touch it"
The lesson with MeeGo should be not to wait for some company magically doing everything right, sticking with one strategy and offering everything on a silver plate. They never do it, business plans and political plans change all the time.
Many pieces of the Harmattan UI are already in use in the MeeGo (Mer) CE UI, which is the nearest to product quality free mobile UI out there at the moment. And it's MeeGo, not Maemo 6, if it matters something. Still more a great base than a complete suite, it's up to us all if we're interested in continuing that great work. So, the code has already been touched.
I have not completely understood the complaints about something being not completely free. If there is something free offered, and it's the best free thing that there is currently, why not work on that instead of just complaining that companies don't do what you want? I do understand advocation, but enough is enough.

see all hotels in Las Vegas"Not enough cocktail waitresses"
Slots were way too tight , ended up playing at the Main Street the last 2 days , not enough cocktail people and they took too long when they did come around .Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"great value"
loved the food credit included in the price! The food was tasty and very inexpensive! The casino itself wasn't hitting on too much-but hotel was great! Really hot water and outstanding water pressure!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Horrible hotel"
If you are a smoker then by all means go to this place, if not then stay far away. Even if they give you a non smoking room you still have smoke in your room. This place is nothing but trash, the service is bad you have to haul your own luggage into the casino then up the elevator and they are not nice about the parking and the room. The room was so […] disgusting it was three steps below a motel 6. Never again will I stay here. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
Love that they don't charge overpriced resort fees. Clean and convenient. Lots of eating choices around the area.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
A nice place to stay, it was a ways of the strip, but overall was a very good place.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"The Cal"
Does the job every time. Lines into the diner is a bit long usually but other than that always a good stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The Cal has always been a favorite of my parents but if I travel to Vegas on my own I tend to stay on the strip. I had my 23 years old daughter with me so I took notice of some system especially at the main street casino which is connected to the Cal. There was security around but I kept a look out nonetheless. The staff at the Cal was friendlier but […] the facility is just showing it age and there is limited food choices and no live entertainment. Too few open craps tables also. I had to stand around and wait for an opening. I would have left for another casino but needed to watch over my mom. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Here for work"
Here for work but this is where I stay when I/we come for fun. Great food, wish I could get the oxtail soup earlier.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Check in and out very slow and tedious. Checking in only ONE person at desk. She was frustrated and rude. Should have been told (when checking in) I would not have to stand in line to check out. I stood in line for 30 mins only to get a thank u, have a nice day. I have had this experience b4 over the years at the Cal and comments seem to be ignored. […] I work in town at the MGM and I know we cannot compare but if an employee was short with a guest it would not be tolerated. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Family weekend in Vegas"
The hotel is pretty old, both inside and outside. Need some update. Ok for the price.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Surprising gem!"
Considering the price we paid for our 3 night stay, the Cali was a surprising gem. The room was very comfortable and clean. The Hawaiian decor is a bit tacky, but it's downtown Vegas. It was a block from the Fremont Experience (aka middle aged spring break), which was incredibly entertaining. We were even impressed with the $10.99 All You Can Drink […] Champagne brunch buffet over at the Main Street Station. I would definitely stay here again. The drinks are stronger and cheaper downtown than on the strip. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Clean nice rooms but very small bathrooms"
We enjoyed our 3 nights in California hotel.. but... the air condition stopped working one night and it took a while for them to come and fix it.. Also the bathroom is so tiny and the safe is too small for anything bigger then a mans wallet.. we might stay there again but it wouldn't be my first choice.. The one good thing was the Redwood Grill inside […] the hotel was the best steakhouse i've ever been to in my life! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Nice hotel. Good value for the money. Couldn't ask for more and even got a discount rate for one of the nights. Will stay there again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Always a great time at the Cal. Aloha!Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"hotels outside does not reflect how nice it is"
With the exception of the uncomfortable and low to the floor mattress, my stay was pleasant. The outside of your hotel is deceiving, when you step inside it is very nice and unexpected. The rooms and public areas were clean and nice, I didn't order room service, unfortunately it was only available for breakfast, but I enjoyed my one night stay and will […] choose this hotel again when I return.

"Nice, Quiet Hotel"
Came on trip with husband & wanted a hotel off the Vegas strip but that was still close to some of what Vegas had to offer. This hotel fit that need!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Pleasant stay no complaints..."
Pleasant experience overall....great price, fast check in, friendly staff, and nice modern room....it was clean and cozy. Oh..and the connecting bridge to the Main Street station casino hotel to is a plus if you want to venture to another hotel never having to go outside.Genuine Expedia guest review

It was a pleasant stay at the California Hotel and Casino.Genuine Expedia guest review
"This is an ok hotel"
The California Hotel & Casino is an ok overall place to book. Nothing really special, but to just drop everything and start walking around Fremont area. The room is decent and neat, but i was dissapointed that i booked in advanced only to get a room with an ugly view. The pool definitely needs to be remodeled bigger and better (4ft deep is a childrens […] pool). This is my first time booking a room here, and will definitely be my last time. I had better experience at other hotels at the downtown area. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"close enough for government work"
I must admit that I was somewhat dreading the stay there because the hotel doesn't look like much from the outside, but I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and decor. Our visit started off kind of shaky...our reservation was messed up...showed in their system that we were supposed to have been there a month earlier. Fortunately I had the reservation […] and it was straightened out in less than 15 minutes. From then on the stay was pleasant, the front desk person was polite and very helpful. We were about a block off Fremont and the area to walk there was really sh*tty looking. my one complaint about the room was the lack of curtains. There were wooden slats that did very little to keep light out, otherwise nice stay. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"It's great for a quick and cheap stay."
The only problem I really had with this hotel was the toilet in my room was broken, yet still usable. Just had to manually fill the back with water. Which was a nussience. Other than that it was fine.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Nice Hotel near Freemont St"
This was a family trip. The service at the hotel wa very good. We don't have any complain about the service or the hotel. It is family oriented with arcade room for the kids. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Las Vegas.Genuine Expedia guest review
"You Get What You Pay For"
You Get What You Pay For... Nice, friendly, courteous staff with the Aloha spirit. Rooms looks run down, but what do you expect.... it's an old place... otherwise, it's okay.Genuine Expedia guest review
"A bargain but"
Good pricing, nice staff, OK room for cleanliness, comfort. Hotel's just dated, worn; not much to be done there unless a remodel occurs. Still, location is good -- Downtown's something different from Strip. If you're into the JA-Hawaiian thang and of a certain age (older), this hotel's kind of a hoot.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great place, Great price"
The hotel was great. The room was nice, clean and spacious. No complaints!Genuine Expedia guest review
"Great place in the perfect downtown location."
Our stay was amazing. The staff was most helpful in any situation. This hotel is an older hotel, so ofcourse it made it more affordable. Our room was quite large, very clean, and the air conditioning was amazing. We visited the saltwater pool and enjoyed a beautiful view while swimming. The walk to the Freemont Street experience was only 2 minutes. […] We were surrounded by endless hours of entertainment. I will continue to stay here, and would recommend this place to anyone..

It was a good hotel for the price. The location is right next to everything on Fremont Street. The hotel also had a mini fridge which was nice to be able to keep drinks and leftovers in there. We were staying with another couple and I was happy that they were able to give us rooms next to each other. I would stay here again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Clean and comfortable 3 night stay"
The room is clean. The bed is comfortable. Check-in, check out was fast. We also received free breakfast or lunch buffet for Monday and Tuesday as part of the package at either Fremont or Main street station. The buffet was good and had lots of variety. I like the older style slot machine with coins coming out.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"A pleasant surprise"
I was pleasantly surprised with this hotel. I come to Vegas 2 times a year for 4 nites on business. I usually stay at Fitzgeralds/ the D but wasn't crazy about the package this time so took a chance on the California. It was very good, a nice clean room, fast elevators, and the food in their main café was excellent and very inexpensive. I will definitely […] stay here again. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
Room looked clean, had to buy air freshener to help with the old building type smell. Bed was very comfortable. Hotel is near the freeway and all the emergency vehicle sirens, motorcycles and large trucks were loud in the room. Overall a decent deal.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Can I the apple wireless keyboard switch between being used with an iPad and an iPhone quickly and easily?
I am thinking of buying this keyboard for use with my iPad mini and iPhone 5S.
First - I know that it will work with either of these devices, my question is NOT about that.
What I am trying to find out is how easy it is to go from one to the other. Do I have to set it up manually, each time I want to switch which device I am using it with? Or, can I pair the keyboard to both devices and then just use it with either? If so, then if I were to start typing on my iPhone, but then wanted to carry on typing on my iPad, how would I do that? Would I need to turn off my iPhone? Or would I have to go into settings and re-pair it?
I see that there is a Logitech keyboard that has buttons so you can switch quickly between Mac, iPad and IPhone very quickly, without pairing manually via iOS settings every time you switch, but it costs more (at time of writing on the Apple Store) and I would prefer an Apple branded product.
Thanks for any help from my fellow Apple-addicts! Hope I explained this query clearly!!

Hi Simon,
I have an Apple Keyboard (A1314), iPhone 5, iPad 3. I just tried to pair them at the same time and obviously failed. Thus, only one device can be paired at the same time and there is no any 'switch between paired devices' option from the keyboard. So, every time you want to use keyboard with one of devices, you have to manipulate with Bluetooth On/Off. Fortunately, in iOS7 it's easy accessible from the quick panel.
So, in spite of lacking a physical switcher on Apple keyboard, you can quite easily switch between paired devices.- Answered by Kiryl S

You gave Sunshine-lvl some attention
You gave this pet attention today!
Name: Sunshine-lvlBirthday: 05-21-2011Level: 2 Type: Blue Ringed Octopus Rarity: Limited Edition Gender: Male Clicks: 588 Animal FactsThe delicate Blue-Ringed Octopus, weighing in at just .92 oz and spanning at the most 7.8 inches, is one of the most fascinating and deadly creatures that lurk the dark depths of the ocean blue. Coming in bright and visually appealing colors and banded with around 50 to 60 blue spots, these are some of the most beautiful octopi in the sea. Harmless and even cute at first glace, fitting in the palm of your hand, the Blue-Ringed Octopus can become deadly when disturbed. Upon contact, the Blue-Ringed Octopus will activate its neon blue rings, which will begin to flash with warning. Its venom, located in the saliva and known as maculotoxin, can kill an adult human within minutes, first paralyzing its victim before their final breath. These majestic creatures should always be approached with care and caution. Blue-Ringed Octopi generally prey on small ocean critters like crabs, fish, and mollusks. They generally live to around 2 years old. They can be found in the shallow tide pools and ocean waters in the western Pacific and the calm shores off the coast of Australia. Due to the lack of a skeleton, these octopi are extremely flexible; they make their nests and dens in mollusk shells and other small enclosures. They are most active during the cool nighttime in the ocean. |

CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE Recipe
- 2 2 2tablespoons TABLESPOON_USVolumeunsalted butter
- 4 4 4tablespoons TABLESPOON_USVolumesugar
- 4 4 4ounces OUNCE_USVolumebittersweet chocolate, cut into small pieces
- 4 4 4eggs, separated
- 2 2 2tablespoons TABLESPOON_USVolumeorange liqueur
- 3 3 3egg whites
- 1/2 .5 .5lemon, juiced
- Powdered sugar, for garnish
- Unsweetened whipped cream
Instructions for Chocolate Souffle Recipe
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter 6 (1-cup) soufflé dishes and dust them with about 2 tablespoons of the sugar. Chill them in the refrigerator until needed.
- Melt the chocolate in a metal bowl set over a double boiler. Remove the bowl from the heat and stir in the egg yolks and the liqueur.
- In a clean bowl, using a wire whisk or an electric beater, beat all 7 egg whites until they form soft peaks when the whisk or beaters are lifted out. Beat in the lemon juice and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Continue beating the whites until they form stiff peaks that are still very shiny. Stir a quarter of the beaten whites into the chocolate mixture, and then gently fold in the remaining whites.
- Fill the buttered and sugared soufflé dishes with the soufflé mixture. Run your thumb around the inside edge of each dish to make a shallow, uniform depression all along the rim of the mixture, so that the soufflés will form hat shapes when they rise. Put the dishes in the oven and bake until the edges are set but the middles are still soft, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Carefully transfer each soufflé to a napkin-lined dessert plate. Dust the tops with powdered sugar, if desired, and spoon a dollop of whipped cream into the center of each soufflé. Serve immediately.
A delicious, spectacular dessert soufflé is actually very easy to make. Just make sure that you separate the eggs carefully, so that no speck of yolk contaminates the whites, and that you beat the egg whites in a clean bowl with a clean whisk or beater.

News for Youse: Google creates artificial intelligence, Facebook creates easier ways to stalk people
In case you're planning on sleeping again in your lifetime, you may want to stop reading this right now before we dig into chilling tales of scientific "progress". (We won't be offended; we understand that some people value a nightmare-less slumber.)
For those of you still with us, the overlords at Google are hard at work developing artificial intelligence that will kill us all benefit mankind in some way, although we here at News for Youse can't see any kind of outcome other than permanent enslavement by robots or perpetual war with androids that look a lot like former governors of California. (A Ronald Reagan terminator—how terrifying would that be?)
However, the Google brain trust sees this as a worthwhile endeavour. Their latest breakthrough? They've developed a neural network of 16,000 processing cores (that's a billion some-odd linkages), and then fed it 10 million images from the Internet. Based on those, said network was then able to recognize an image of a cat that it had not seen before.
"We never told it during the training, 'This is a cat,' " said Google fellow Dr. Jeff Dean. "It basically invented the concept of a cat." (Terrified emphasis ours.)
Somehow, we're only slightly surprised that the first thing an artificial neural network "learns" to recognize is a picture of a cat. Considering the Internet is primarily fuelled by pornography and adorable kitten blogs, there was a 50-50 chance.
Need more assurance that you have no control over the creeping monolith that is enslavement by computers interconnectedness?
On Monday, two "important" Facebook stories were circulating. First of all, the mega-corporation started replacing everyone's email addresses with @facebook.com addresses, which is annoying, but c'mon. How else do you expect a floundering social-networking site that's desperate for its users to use all of the site's fiddly bells and whistles that they'd otherwise never know existed unless you force them to?
(Here's how to change it back, just in case you hadn't already freaked out about this yesterday.)
Secondly, Facebook added a feature called "Find Friends Nearby" to some people's accounts, allowing them to see every other Facebook user in the area.
Virtual stalking of a person's real-time location is hardly anything new (see: Foursquare, Grindr, every cell phone in existence), but Facebook users found this feature so disturbing that it appears the company has temporarily taken it down. A company spokesperson told CNN that the Find Friends Nearby roll-out wasn't a "formal release", and engineers were still working on better, more efficient ways to prevent people from ever having to interact face-to-face again.
Oh, man. We almost forgot the only news that matters today: the Vatican has a new public relations guy: Fox News correspondent and Opus Dei numerary Greg Burke. It makes perfect sense. What "news" network can spin gold out of shit? Fox News can! Who has more shit to spin than a manure farmer? The Vatican! Who's misogynistic, elitist, and prone to secrecy? Fox News, Opus Dei, and the Vatican! Honestly, it's a match made in, er, heaven.

"Falling into the real oddity category is this 1949 recording of Bach's Musical Offering, with conductor Hermann Scherchen leading soloists of the Berlin Radio Symphony in an arrangement written by Swiss organist Roger Vuataz. The Musical Offering is, like the Art of Fugue, a semi-conceptual work, with instrumentation, and even the ordering of sections, only partly specified; it consists of a series of contrapuntal treatments of a theme given to Bach by King Frederick the Great of Prussia.
The work certainly appealed to Scherchen, who spoke of "realizations" rather than interpretations of works and would, one suspects, have been pleased by the current trend toward substantial recastings of compositions. Scherchen's Bach performances in general were unique: his was neither the Romantic Bach of old, nor a harbinger of the incipient historical performance movement. He treated Bach as an intellectual, rather dry modernist, and since the Vuataz arrangement of the Musical Offering takes a similar approach, the recording hangs together.
Vuataz arranges the work for oboe, violin, English horn, viola, cello, and bassoon. Different instruments are used in each movement, with the winds predominating, until all the forces come together for the six-part ricercar at the end. The shifts in timbre are a little distracting just because one has never heard anything quite like them before, but really they're no more extreme than a shift in registration on the organ. The texture clarifies Bach's complex polyphony.
One noteworthy aspect of this release is the expertly remastered 1949 sound, which shows just how good recorded sound got at the end of the 78 rpm era. There isn't a trace of hiss. This is not a pick for those looking for a first Musical Offering, but those fascinated by this major product of Bach's intellect, and interested in its resonances through history, should investigate this disc."-James Manheim, All Music

Hacker breaks into Bush family email accounts

The U.S. Secret Service is investigating the hacking of email accounts belonging to members of the Bush family that divulged correspondence, addresses, phone numbers and a picture of a self-portrait of former President George W. Bush standing in a shower.
A report on the Smoking Gun website said the pilfered emails provided a rare glimpse into the private lives of one of America's most powerful political dynasties. The Bushes are only the second family in U.S. history to send a father and son to the White House.
The website said a hacker known as Guccifer raided the email accounts and posted the photos online. The pictures include an image of former President George H.W. Bush, who was released from a Houston hospital last month after seven weeks of treatment for bronchitis, in a hospital bed.
Another photo showed the elder Bush, 88, posing outside a home with Bill Clinton, who was president between the two Bushes.
The intercepted photos also featured a portrait painted by George W. Bush of himself showering. It shows a gray-headed man, nude from the waist up, regarding the viewer with Bush-like features from the reflection in a shaving mirror. Another painting shows a pair of legs in a bathtub.
"I really like the paintings of George W. Bush," New York magazine art critic Jerry Saltz wrote yesterday.
Saltz, who normally reserves his criticism for the likes of French painter Henri Matisse, found the president's portraiture "wonderful, unself-conscious, intense."
Other photos showed Bush painting a picture of a house and posing with a cut-out of himself in an artist's smock, beret and mustache.
The Smoking Gun site, known for posting documents related to celebrities, said the hacker invaded six email accounts, including one for Dorothy Bush Koch, daughter of George H.W. Bush, as well as other Bush family members and friends.
The U.S. Secret Service is investigating whether George H.W. Bush's email was hacked as well, the agency said yesterday. A Bush family spokesman declined to comment.
The site said the emails revealed that when the elder Bush was in poor health, George W. Bush wrote his siblings the day after Christmas to say he was "thinking about eulogy."
"Hopefully I'm jumping the gun," he said, "but since the feeling is that you all would rather me speak than bubba, please help."
"Bubba" is a well-known sobriquet for Clinton.
