The sheets where disgusting. I found something on my pillow(sticky jelly) the first night. So I ended up buying my sheets from a target down the block.

"Location is everything!"
Location is everything! Half a block off the (2.5 mile long) Broadwalk Hollywood Beach, FL. Close to the airport and Port Everglades pier. Requested Blue Wave but was not available - stayed in Seaside Unit. The 1 bedroom suite on the second level - (no elevator -awkward with luggage; approx. 20 steps up each time we left and returned to room); included […] a flat screen TV in sitting area, fridge, microwave, stove, dishes; second older TV in bedroom - didn't work very well. Need to ask for towels. There is no room service unless requested. Met basic needs. If you want to be near the beach - in a reasonable place to stay; you can make do! Manager only been there for a short time and tried really hard to see that we were comfortable and to accommodate our needs. Don't waste your time with the free breakfast - walk a few steps further down the Broadwalk where you will find restaurants to serve good food of all sorts... Pool beside building was cold even though it was supposed to be heated. Used another pool - there are 3. Stay was ok as we were only there for 3 nights. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评

"Tired and Dirty"
Generally clean appearance, but room in great need of updating, and even a fresh coat of paint. Some really filthy spots that had never been touched - between the bathroom vanity and tub (disgusting), and behind the sink faucet. Lots of little gnats like the ones that hang around your garbage cans in summer were in the bathtub. A couple of old peas […] were left in the refrigerator to greet us. Pool was clean, warm and fun for the kids. My neighbor and I had both put our "Please clean the room" door hangers out in full sight of the maids before we left for the day (10 am departure), and the rooms were left untouched when we returned at 8 pm. Front desk attendant had to come by then and clean the rooms, and then made every excuse under the sun (most tenants are long-term and don't require cleaning, your best bet is to tell us at the front desk when you want your room cleaned), and even blamed us (you should have told me earlier) for the mess. The continental "breakfast" was a joke - wholesome bread slices and some bricks of cream cheese. This place was not worth the price - I would never stay here again. I'd skip this place and spend the extra money to stay at a hotel chain. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评

Eneste positive med dette hotellet er beliggenheten. At dette 'hotellet' har fått 2,5 stjerner er en gåte. Hotellet er gammelt og dårlig vedlikeholdt.

Het hotel ligt praktisch naast de boulevard (strand) iets ten zuiden van het vliegveld en Port Everglade. Het hotel heeft een mooie grote kamer met zelfs een kookgelegenheid. De juiste straal en temperatuur vinden in de douche was het enige minpunt. Het ontbijt had niet veel om het lijf, maar je kan de dag starten zonder eerst te hoeven zoeken naar […] een loctie waar je je ontbijt kan nuttigen. Voor de kamer staan (schommel) stoelen waar je rustig je ontbijtje kan nuttigen of een sigaretje kan roken. Het hotel heeft drie kleine zwembaden die bij duisternis mooi zijn verlicht. Het strand en een mooie boulevard liggen om de hoek evenals een opstappunt voor de watertaxi die je naar het centrum van Fort Lauderdale brengt (een aanrader). 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评

Brief Description: If this is working as intended, then I can't imagine the intended purpose. If you pick up enough D/C time during the game, even if you stay for the rest of the game, you receive an incorrect loss and a leave at the end.
In the match I list below, I was unable to reconnect to the game server until 79 seconds were remaining, but I made it back in and finished the game. I don't know how much time left I had on the timer by the time I fully reconnected, but apparently it was low enough to warrant a loss/leave.
Why does time continue to tick off the timer despite the game being finished?
How to Replicate: Start a game, d/c for an unknown amount of time, reconnect and finish the game.
Match ID: 2550117
Match ID: 2882033
My internet connection failed in the middle of this game. After I got it working again I rejoined with 0:00 time remaining out of my 5 minutes to reconnect but I still got a leave when the game ended. I assume this is a bug and can I get this leave erased?
From what I can read, he said he reconnected and got back in. So he got back in as his reconnection time hit 0. He played the rest of the game and finished. Yet he still got a leave even though he rejoined.
How is that not a bug? Even if he rejoined long after his time expired(or was kicked), there's still a bug somewhere that even let him rejoin.
I just got a leave added to my stats when I finished my game, so I am confused. I checked up stats and it's true - I don't have any items, but 25lvl and much more... I didn't leave before Disconnect appeared after we finished shrine.
Could you delete my leave and fix it to add this match as fully played to my stats?
I have absolutely the same problem. Finished the game 5mins ago.
The match is #4029417.
I had a computer restart during the game, reconnecting with time remaining 0:46 secs.
We won. Then I clicked the 'Disconnect' button.
I downloaded the replay and watched the end. When I got disconnected my timer continued counting from 0:05 down and in the about 10secs in replay after the game I got DCed.
That is a pretty terrible end result for a 1:20h game...
I had problems with my ISP during the game but managed to come back (0:17 seconds remaining) and finish the game. Yet when I checked my stats I was flagged as a leaver in that game...
Match ID: 3709936
I would really like to see that bug resolved...
Same problem here >.>
samething happened like the guy in post 8
I'll confirm the bug - I got in with 0:00 one game but I was a spectator & it was a NoStats game anyway, so I know getting in with 0:00 is possible.

We enjoyed attending the inaugural South Dakota High School Activities Association state soccer tournament in Aberdeen in early October, as well as the 15th annual South Dakota Soccer Association state high school tournament in Rapid City the next weekend. Both were outstanding events, one run very professionally by SDHSAA staff and a local committee, the other by SDSA state and local volunteers.
But there shouldn't be two state high school tournaments. It's time for everyone — soccer association and school boards — to bite the bullet and commit to fully sanctioning soccer by no later than 2014.
While we appreciate budget concerns, school boards must find a way to make it happen because it is the right thing to do. A boys' and girls' soccer program with varsity and JV teams can serve around 100 student-athletes. The teams already have uniforms, and there are already fields, so those costs are not an issue. Schools simply need to cover transportation and a small salary for coaching staff, as some schools in South Dakota are already doing.
Soccer is played by thousands of kids across South Dakota. And they deserve to have their sport fully incorporated into the school activities curriculum. It's a matter of equity.

White House, Oct. 4, 1903.
In spite of the "Hurry! Hurry!" on the outside of your envelope, I did not like to act until I had consulted Mother and thought the matter over; and to be frank with you, old fellow, I am by no means sure that I am doing right now. If it were not that I feel you will be so bitterly disappointed, I would strongly advocate your acquiescing in the decision to leave you off the second squad this year. I am proud of your pluck, and I greatly admire footballthough it was not a game I was ever able to play myself, my qualities resembling Kermit's rather than yours. But the very things that make it a good game make it a rough game, and there is always the chance of your being laid up. Now, I should not in the least object to your being laid up for a season if you were striving for something worth while, to get on the Groton school team, for instance, or on your class team when you entered Harvardfor of course I don't think you will have the weight to entitle you to try for the 'varsity. But I am by no means sure that it
worth your while to run the risk of being laid up for the sake of playing in the second squad when you are a fourth former, instead of when you are a fifth former. I do not know that the risk is balanced by the reward. However, I have told the Rector that as you feel so strongly about it, I think that the chance of your damaging yourself in body is outweighed by the possibility of bitterness of spirit if you could not play. Understand me, I should think mighty little of you if you permitted chagrin to make you bitter on some point where it was evidently right for you to suffer the chagrin. But in this case I am uncertain, and I shall give you the benefit of the doubt. If, however, the coaches at any time come to the conclusion that you ought not to be in the second squad, why you must come off without grumbling.
I am delighted to have you play football. I believe in rough, manly sports. But I do not believe in them if they degenerate into the sole end of any one's existence. I don't want you to sacrifice standing well in your studies to any over-athleticism; and I need not tell you that character counts for a great deal more than either intellect or body in winning success in life. Athletic proficiency is a mighty good servant, and like so many other good servants, a mighty bad master. Did you ever read Pliny's letter to Trajan, in which he speaks of its being advisable to keep the Greeks absorbed in athletics, because it distracted their minds from all serious pursuits, including soldiering, and prevented their ever being dangerous to the Romans? I have not a doubt that the British officers in the Boer War had their efficiency partly reduced because they had sacrificed their legitimate duties to an inordinate and ridiculous love of sports. A man must develop his physical prowess up to a certain point; but after he has reached that point there are other things that count more. In my regiment nine-tenths of the men were better horsemen than I was, and probably two-thirds of them better shots than I was, while on the average they were certainly hardier and more enduring. Yet after I had had them a very short while they all knew, and I knew too, that nobody else could command them as I could. I am glad you should play football; I am glad that you should box; I am glad that you should ride and shoot and walk and row as well as you do. I should be very sorry if you did not do these things. But don't ever get into the frame of mind which regards these things as constituting the end to which all your energies must be devoted, or even the major portion of your energies.
Yes, I am going to speak at Groton on prize day. I felt that while I was President, and while you and Kermit were at Groton I wanted to come up there and see you, and the Rector wished me to speak, and so I am very glad to accept.
By the way, I am working hard to get Renown accustomed to automobiles. He is such a handful now when he meets them that I seriously mind encountering them when Mother is along. Of course I do not care if I am alone, or with another man, but I am uneasy all the time when I am out with Mother. Yesterday I tried Bleistein over the hurdles at Chevy Chase. The first one was new, high and stiff, and the old rascal never rose six inches, going slap through it. I took him at it again and he went over all right.
I am very busy now, facing the usual endless worry and discouragement, and trying to keep steadily in mind that I must not only be as resolute as Abraham Lincoln in seeking to achieve decent ends, but as patient, as uncomplaining, and as even-tempered in dealing, not only with knaves, but with the well-meaning foolish people, educated and uneducated, who by their unwisdom give the knaves their chance.

A local holiday gift guide for everyone on your list
Richard Retyi | Contributor
For people who love fruit and meat
Who says fruit cake is a bad gift? Robert Lambert's Rare Citrus Fruit Cake from Zingerman's baked with blood oranges, limes, whatever bergamots are, and a bunch of other fruit. Soaked in cognac and aged a few months, this fruit cake will put grandma's to shame. If it's meat you want, it's meat you shall have — bacon, to be precise. Biercamp offers a variety of meats (bacon) including lamb (bacon), duck (bacon) and beef (bacon). They've also got an assortment of sausages, bratwurst and jerky. I received a $50 gift certificate to Biercamp last year and became a huge fan.
For chocoholics and people who like spicy stuff
The Schakolad Chocolate Factory isn't just some ordinary chocolateria. The fine folks at Schakolad make works of art, including chocolate-shaped champagne glasses, a 3D chocolate school bus, chocolate chess sets or—this is Ann Arbor—a nice big chocolate football.
Bongs and Thongs is two floors packed with potential big-box gifts and stocking stuffers. You can go with any number of bongs and/or thongs, water pipes, beaded door curtains or something a little racier. Remote-controlled vibrating panties, a 50 Shades of Pleasure set, a Clone a Willy kit or something called The Tuggie. The guy who spoke to me said he'd offer 10 percent off for anyone mentioning this article. I kid you not. 10 percent off. You're welcome.
For bookworms and silverfish
Borders might be gone and Shaman Drum now serves delicious burgers and Cajun fries, but there are still a few great independent bookstores where you can pick up some great books. Dawn Treader is my favorite place for used books and rare finds, while for a specialty mystery, detective and true crime shop, Aunt Agatha's is great for browsing. Don't forget Nicola's Books out at the Westgate Shopping Center.
For the hipsters in your life
Rock Paper Scissors is full of interesting finds, including stationary. kitchenware, arts and also crafts. What's hotter than rock paper and scissors? Robots. And Dave Eggers. And child literacy. 826michigan has everything from McSweeney's publications and 826 gear to all your robot needs—a full line of Better Bots products.

For people who love to laugh and cry and sometimes both
I've never not had a fantastic time at a comedy club, and the Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase is right in our own backyard. The Comedy Showcase offers $12 Gold Passes or you can spring for a $50 Platinum Club Membership, which includes free general admission and reserved seat discounts.
If you prefer some crying with your laughing, a membership to the historic Michigan Theater is a great gift for cinephiles. A six-tier membership structure allows you to pay $35 for a first-time membership all the way up to the $300 Gold Card, which gives you free admission to all films with free popcorn.
For game lovers, of the board or video variety
Rather than shop online or buy from one of the big chain stores, why not pick up all your video games at Get Your Game On. They've also one of the city's best selection of board games and RPGs and a glass case full of Magic The Gathering cards. If you've never played Settlers of Catan, it's a great gift for most ages and comes with a ton of expansion sets. Gifts for years!
Vault of Midnight also sells board games and RPGs, but it's their extensive inventory of comic books and graphic novels that they're best known for. The hottest item this year is Chris Ware's Building Stories, which checks in around $50, but for affordable stocking stuffers, pick up some $7 Micro Munnys.
Richard Retyi | Contributor
For clothes horses and ponies
Sam's has been around since 1946, selling Levi's and Converse All-Stars to generations of Ann Arborites. All four pairs of Converse I've ever purchased have been bought at Sam's. And a scarf once. Down on South University, you can get everything from hats and sneakers to T-shirts and hoodies at Motivation Boutique. Celebrities like Chris Brown, Pauly D, Bow Wow and someone named Big K.R.I.T. have rocked Motivation wear.
For those truly in love with the holiday spirit
If you're truly in love with the holiday spirit and the ghost of giving, might I suggest buying me a drink at any of Ann Arbor's watering holes in which you might happen upon me. Try The Bar at 327 Braun Court for starters, then maybe make your way to Alley Bar, Old Town Tavern or the 8 Ball Saloon. If you don't see me, there's a chance I'm at The Last Word, visiting Andy Garris at Rush Street or sitting in my living room. I drink beer but I prefer Manhattans.

The LOYOLA MAROON No. 17 Vol. XXXV Loyola University, New Orleans, La., Friday, March 14, 1958 Time For Revenge Tonight Student-Faculty Game Faculty Team Threatens Students As Big Game, Tests Draw Near By JOHN PAYTON The annual student-faculty basketball madness, now the talk of the campus, is still slated for tonight at 7:30 in the Fieldhouse with proceeds going to he Ceylon Missions.Despite student protests that the faculty is threatening them with reference to up-coming exams (beginning March 20) the 33 powers-that-be insist that the show must go on. And a show it will be. The male students have been practicing a pot°nt flying wedge offense in an effort to avenge last year's defeat.However, the faculty, with help from the phytic* department, worked out what they claim to be a foolproof strategy. ulty does have a distinct advantage.Another factor should be considered before placing bets. The referees are crooked. Leo "Casey" Zinser is pro-faculty and Bill "Shrimp" Schweiberger is for the students. The third referee, Henry "Skinny" Asher openly admits he can be bought if the price is right. Taking all these things into consideration it's safe to say you'll never have so much fun for fifty cents. Verret Named Asst. Editor Of Yearbook Lynn Verret, A&S junior, has been named assistant editor of The Wolf, yearbook, Kate Scully, editor, said. Other editorial appointments include Marilyn Hall, A&S senior, picture editor; Milton Alberstadt, A&S junior, ROTC editor; William Geary, A&S junior, sports editor; Evelyn Komma, A&S junior, feature editor; and Jo Anne (ilas, A&S junior, and Kenny de Boisbland, dental senior, co-ad editors.Paul Rose, A&S junior, wa» appointed artist and John Lappicola, A&S sophomore, is the photographer. Staff members are Judy Brock, BA freshman; Ronald Barnes, A&S freshman; Ray Cullom, Gail Gritter, Elsa Kloor, Sue Burke, and Gladys Selva, all juniors; seniors Leo McLean and Linda Wilson and Eileen Gill, out of course. "The Wolf is now in the planning stage," Scully said. "The real work will begin when the pictures start coming back." She added that anyone interested in working on the publication is still welcome to join the staff. Faulkner Reaches Met Opera Finals Barbara Faulkner, former Loyola voice student, will compete in the finals of the Metropolitan Opera Auditions Sunday in New York with two other representatives from the United States. She earned a place in the finals by winning the semi-finals last Monday and the regional finals the previous Monday. The finals will be broadcast nationwide over the American Broadcasting Network and can be heard on WSMB Sunday at 6:30 p.m. in New Orleans, according to Dorothy Hulse, chairman of the voice department of the college of music. Mission Fund Drive Nets $335 To Date According to the latest report from the chaplain's office, the daily can-shaking drive for the Ceylon Mission has thus far netted approximately $335.00. The collections will continue each day throughout Lent in the quadrangle. It is hoped that this year's drive will surpass any previously conducted. Take the perimeter of the court and divide by pi. Next apply the quadratic equation, solve for X and there you have it—the faculty wins by XY points. At least that's what they say. The weaker sex will try an entirely different approach. Coach Claire Farrier has devised a revolutionary offensive pattern—it's called the qrxvzp. (You must admit you've never heard of that one before.) The key to the plan lies in its uniqueness. You see it's never been used in basketball before. Actually its an old Norwegian cure for hiccups but those old Norwegians were pretty slick and besides it worked. For some strange reason the female faculty isn't at all shook. Miss Isabel Snyder, coach of "La Group", is confident of victory. When questioned concerning the basis of her attitude she merely smiled and said, "Age before beauty." Well, if it goes by age on* must admit the fac- Card Permission Voided By Dean The order permitting playing of card garnet in the student lounge has been rescinded by the Rev. Robert L. Boggs, S.J., dean of students. Dr. Hebert To Chairman Conclave Dr. Paul M. Hebert, former dean of the Louisiana State University school of law, will act as chairman of the Natural Law Conference, sponsored by the St. Thomas More Law Club, March 22, at 2 p.m. in the student lounge, Ronald M. Labbe, chairman of the Natural Law Institute, announced. "Open to attorneys and other interested persons, the conference will be devoted to discussing natural law, its existence, source, and its effects on the formation of positive law," Labbe said. Dr. Hebert, presently engaged in private practice in Baton Rouge, holds the J.D.S. degree from Yale University and served as dean of the Loyola school of law from 1932 to 1936. During 1947-48 he served as judge on the United States Military Tribunal at Nuremberg, Germany and is author of numerous articles in legal periodicals. Honorary co-chairman of the conference are: the Most Rev. Joseph F. Rummel, archibishop of New Orleans; the Honorable John B. Fourner, chief justice of the Louisiana Supreme Court and Mr. John H. Tucker, Jr., president of the Louisiana State Law Institute. Also, Mr. Charles J. Rivet, pres- Harrison, LSU school of law; Dean Ray Forrester, Tulane University school of law, anil Dean Antonio E. Papale, Loyola school of law. In addition, the Law Club is also sponsoring an open house of the Loyola Law School at 10:30 a.m. on March 22, for all students throughout the state who contemplate entering law school. St. Thomas More Club president Gerald P. Chopping said that the program will be opened by two introductory papers intended to act as a basis for debate and which will be delivered by Professors Robert A. Pascal, of LSU and Alan Karabus of Tulane. Professor Pascal is a former graduate of the Loyola law school. He holds Master of Laws degrees from LSU and the University of Michigan. Having acted as a visitidentvisitident of the St. Thomas More Catholic Lawyers Association of New Orleans; Dean Milton M. DR. PAUL M. HEBERT Council Approves Election Changes By NAT BELLONI The student council approved six measures of a seven-point recommendation by the election committee Tuesday in a move to change the face of Loyola's upcoming student council elections. The elections committee, headed by Bob Young, included Sal Alphonse, Wilson Breaux and Carole Glass. The new rules are as follows: 1. Student council election! will be conducted for a two-day period on an appropriate Monday and Tuetday, one week following a similar two-day nominating period. 2. The student council will try to secure voting machines for elections in the colleges of arts and sciences and business administration.3. Winning candidates must attend the meeting at which official results of the election are announced and they will be inducted the following week. 4. Voters will be required to produce identification to be allowed to vote in nominations and elections. 5. Voter* mutt cast their ballot* without leaving the designated area of voting or their ballot* will be invalidated. 6. No candidate on academic probation can qualify for election. The only portion of the report that was omitted by council vote was one which would require that voting results be kept secret. "The tally of votes in the student council elections shall be conducted in secret, that is, that the candidates shall not be present at the counting or informed of the results prior to the official announcement at the student council meeting. The fir*t aection of the report waa included *o a* to facilitate publicity in The Maroon both for the nominating election and familiarizing atudent* with the voting procedure. Voting machines will be obtained if they have been released by the court which has impounded them because of the local district attorney election feud. The winning candidates will be required to attend the student council meeting at which the winners are announced in order to familiarize them with the procedures.All voters will be required to show some form of identification such as an ID card, driver's license, social security card, etc., so as to avoid "ghost" voting.

January 15, 2013 Skewed LeftFilling the Free Agent VoidsAs this offseason's free agent class has been shaken and largely settled, some of the jilted teams have been left in fine shape. Some immediately went out and patched the hole where a departed free agent once was—the Braves, for instance, grabbed B.J. Upton immediately to fill most of the Michael Bourn void—while others had replacements ready to go, making the free agents expendable. Not everybody was so lucky or so prepared, however, as one can see by observing the voids forming where free agents used to be. Here's a look at the five positions where teams are still scrambling to replace talent or will need an in-house option to exceed expectations lest they face a looming black hole at the position. 5. White Sox catcher without A.J. Pierzynski With Pierzynski Texas-bound, it's now on Tyler Flowers, a backup the last two years and a .205/.307/.388 career hitter in 317 major-league plate appearances, to step into Pierzynski's vacated gear. Flowers' minor-league numbers and that limited sample indicate some power and patience are present. His isn't a case of bad luck so far in the majors, though, and at 26 (he'll turn 27 later this month), he's not exactly young. In order to catch on in his age-27 season, he'll have to cut down on his strikeouts, which have come in an astounding 34 percent of his plate appearances. 4. Indians DH without Travis Hafner

The Michigan Supreme Court has ruled that a woman who was raped by a jail guard while she was being detained is not entitled to file a civil rights and sexual harassment lawsuit against the county. The court said the local government is not responsible for the behavior of a public worker who acted outside the scope of his employment. The court's Republican majority split with Democratic justices, who say the decision undermines previous rulings that protect victims of discrimination.

fail-safe vs fail-fast Iterator in Java

Structural changes means adding or removing. Updating any element from collection is not structural change.

Hey mate, what is difference between fail-fast and weekly consistent iterator? does fail-safe and weekly consistent iterator refers to same thing? As you pointed out that iterators of many concurrent collections e.g. ConcurrentHashMap and CopyOnWriteArrayList are fail-safe, which I have read somewhere that they are also weekly consistent with original collection.

Who Lost Turkey?
That's the question currently making the rounds in Washington, D.C. Many observers were stunned by Ankara's support of the "aid mission" to Gaza that ended in a confrontation with Israeli commandos.
So, how does an important U.S. ally (and NATO partner) get involved with groups that are sworn enemies of Israel? And, how did we fail to notice Turkey's move away from the west, and towards its new friends like Iran and Syria?
As Robert Pollock explains in today's edition of The Wall Street Journal, Ankara's march towards Islamic extremism began almost a decade ago, with the election of Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan. Since then, Turks have been fed a steady diet of anti-Semitic (and anti-U.S. propaganda), inflaming public sentiment against two of the nation's most important allies:
To follow Turkish discourse in recent years has been to follow a national decline into madness. Imagine 80 million or so people sitting at the crossroads between Europe and Asia. They don't speak an Indo-European language and perhaps hundreds of thousands of them have meaningful access to any outside media. What information most of them get is filtered through a secular press that makes Italian communists look right wing by comparison and an increasing number of state (i.e., Islamist) influenced outfits. Topics A and B (or B and A, it doesn't really matter) have been the malign influence on the world of Israel and the United States.
For example, while there was much hand-wringing in our own media about "Who lost Turkey?" when U.S. forces were denied entry to Iraq from the north in 2003, no such introspection was evident in Ankara and Istanbul. Instead, Turks were fed a steady diet of imagined atrocities perpetrated by U.S. forces in Iraq, often with the implication that they were acting as muscle for the Jews. The newspaper Yeni Safak, Erdogan's daily read, claimed that Americans were tossing so many Iraqi bodies into the Euphrates that local mullahs had issued a fatwa ordering residents not to eat the fish. The same paper repeatedly claimed that the U.S. used chemical weapons in Fallujah. And it reported that Israeli soldiers had been deployed alongside U.S. forces in Iraq and that U.S. forces were harvesting the innards of dead Iraqis for sale on the U.S. "organ market."
It is especially telling that Mr. Erdogan, in a subsequent interview with Robert Pollock, refused to denounce such claims. That is hardly a surprise; such lies clearly serve his political goals. Now, in the wake of the Gaza incident, Erdogan's foreign minister is demanding U.S. "solidarity" with Turkey. So far, the Obama Administration has refused to take the bait. So far.
The question really isn't "who" lost Turkey. Ankara lost its way years ago. The question now is what happens to its relationships with the U.S., Israel and NATO. As we noted previously, Tel Aviv has gone out of its way to preserve its long-standing relationship with the Turkish military, which remains the cornerstone of the modern, secular state. We would hope that our own Defense Department is doing the same thing.
Bottom line: someone needs to take the pulse of the Turkish General Staff (TGS); if Ankara's senior military leaders are firmly behind their Islamist Prime Minister, then it may be impossible to preserve our alliance with Turkey.

The David Rockefeller Graduate Program
Once I learned what science was really about, I knew that's what I wanted to do."
Student Life
Campus Overview
Rockefeller's 14 acres and 22 buildings, set along the East River, serve as its students' home base for their scientific explorations. Nearly all students, along with most postdocs and many faculty, live on or adjacent to campus, and their proximity keeps the grounds — and many of the labs — buzzing with activity late into the night. Because science isn't only about lab work, the university offers numerous spaces for impromptu conversations that spur creative thought. For more than 50 years, the university's Faculty and Students Club has been a relaxed setting for interactions among scientists of all ages and disciplines.
The campus also offers athletic facilities — including a fitness center and tennis and squash courts — a full cafeteria, dining room and coffee cafe, a student lounge, a child care facility, campus-wide wireless internet access, an impressive art collection and numerous places, both indoor and out, to simply sit and think. The university's library, which maintains an extensive archive of books and journals and provides campuswide online access to over 50 electronic databases was recently renovated and provides new indoor and outdoor spaces for reading and study as well as meeting areas, a computer facility and a coffee room.
Subsidized housing for all Ph.D. students is guaranteed. Accommodations include studios with kitchenettes, double and triple suites with shared kitchens and one-bedroom apartments. M.D.-Ph.D. students spend their first five years in Cornell University housing, then live in Rockefeller housing for the duration of the program. Like the laboratories, all on-campus student rooms have high-speed internet access. Current rents range from $585 to $855 a month.
Lecture Series
The university's Caspary Auditorium hosts several lecture series that bring in the world's foremost scientists and thinkers for lectures and informal conversations. In addition to twice-weekly scientific lectures (Rockefeller faculty speak on Mondays, acclaimed researchers from outside institutions speak on Fridays) the university's Insight Lecture Series brings speakers in public health, policy, arts and humanities.
International Students
The Office of Immigration and Academic Appointments provides immigration services to international students, faculty, researchers and visiting scholars, as well as members of their immediate families. The staff will advise international students and scholars on obtaining and maintaining lawful status while at the University. Additionally, all international students receive a stipend and health insurance from the university.

Before you begin shopping for a car, it is important to know what auto financing qualifications you meet. Typically, auto loan rates are calculated based on the type of car you want to buy and your credit history. Additionally, you can get financing directly from a bank or have the dealer finance your auto loan.
Finding an auto loan brings up a lot of questions. Here's some of the questions we receive most often about car financing and auto loan rates:

Comments about OLA406H BLACK WHITE:
This is a fabulous coat. So soft, so edgy, true to size (I'm a true Medium). It's a little on the lightweight side so I may have to layer up when the temps drop below zero in MN. I love the look and feel of the wool, faux leather and silver hardware mixed together. I also love the longer length...great with tunics. I am so pleased!!
