"Horrible service"
Me and my wife stayed in this hotel for three nights while I was attending a buisness conference the area was not empressing in anyway the other guest made you want to lock your doors and wish they had security also once we checked out we were charged a $150.00 cleaning fee because it was said we smoked in our room neither I or my wife smoke I called […] the general manager after this happened assuming it was a mistake and she told me someone had left cigaret ashes in a cup and i explained neither of us smoked she made the accusation that maybe my wife smoked and I didn't know when I was with my wife the whole time in conclusion this was the worst hotel we've ever stayed in and we don't recommend it to anyone with standards もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ
"Great stay!!"
Wish I had come here to begin with, spent a couple of nights at a place that cost double without the room amenities. Loved the cleaning staff, these ladies really clean!! The front desk folks are nice as well. The free breakfast is pretty nice, it's pretty early tho and sometimes I can't get out of bed early enough. Would recommend to friends and family […] and would definitely stay again. もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

The lady at the front desk was so sweet and even remembered our names when checking out! Now thats good customer service!Hotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ
"Not so good"
First of all the people that worked at the hotel were very nice. The hotel is older and had a smell to it. Our comforter had stains all over it, so we threw it on the floor right away. Even though the hotel had a smell and was super dated, it served it's purpose. So if I had a choice next time I would stay at another hotel in town. We are not picky […] people but this one is below standard. もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ
""Smokey Smelling Place!""
The whole place smelled of cigarette smoke, especially in the hallways! Even in nonsmoking rooms, the smell permeated throughout the placeExpedia ゲストの適正な口コミ
"Inexpensive and comfortable"
After reading some of the comments about this hotel, I was a bit concerned. After staying there it was a great experience. The staff was very friendly and the beds were very comfortable. The only negatives were that the towels were a bit on the threadbare side and we stayed for a total of 4 nights and each evening we had to get our keys reprogrammed […] to work- that was a nuisance. Other than that we would definately stay there again. もっと読むExpedia ゲストの適正な口コミ
"Overall clean/comfortable stay"
I was impressed with the cleanliness and service. The room is great for a convenient, basic nights stay. Few maintenance issues with the hotel (floors uneven on stairs and second floor hallway), very small breakfast room and hotel is dated. Otherwise, the rooms were fine and comfortable.Hotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

"Excellent price for a perfectly suitable room."
I've stayed here twice. The first time they had just started their renovations. This time it was almost complete. no noise. No bad smells. The hotels.com map for this place is STILL wrong. Check the Super 8 Greenville, nc on google. That map is accurate.Hotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

I moved to Greenville and this is where i decided to stay. I was happy that i made a good decision. Staff was super friendly and helpful. They also helped me going around the town and finding a perm place to live. The cleaning lady was ok and did her job well. The only thing i would say is that there was a foul smell in corridors. If i had to book this […] hotel again, Yes I would book it. もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

My low marks were location and maintenance, both of which are not very important to me. It was a clean location very close to the hospital that contained a tv, 2 double beds, non-smoking room that also had a mini fridge, coffee maker, and hair dryer. It did its job. I also went through hotels.com for the best rate.Hotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

"A few driving minutes to ECU"
For the price of the hotel room, we were very happy with the hotel. We needed an overnight stay (April 13, 2012), for an open house event at ECU. It took around five driving minutes from hotel to ECU. The hotel wasn't new, however our room was very clean and we had no problems with the room...also the free breakfast was just enough to keep us going […] until lunch buffet at ECU. Plenty of parking spaces and a gas station next to the hotel had one of the cheapest gas prices in town. もっと読むHotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

This hotel is decent for the money. I stayed here for 3 nights for business. The hotel is older but in decent condition. The wireless internet was ok, it actually quit working for about 13 hours.

I was there for a night of getaway. I had to figure out how to turn the heat on or how to work it but other than that it was a good experience.

"nice surprise"
very helpful staff and the room was pleasant. Not fancy but all we needed and the location was wonderful.Hotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ
Our stay was only for one night, the room was fine just for that, I do not recommend for long stay. We had a non smoking room but the hallway smelled like smoke/cigarette, they need air ventilators. Staff was friendly, carpets were nasty, dirty, they need new ones or a good shampoo. Thank goodness, it was only for one night, it served the purpose.Hotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ
"Clean, convenient, good for business trip"
Staff was helpful but not obtrusive. Room was clean and fairly comfortable. Good central location, felt safe there. Good for business trips, which I take there four-five times a year. Provides smoking rooms, which is essential. Overall, a good stay. Would stay there again.Hotels.com ゲストの適正な口コミ

I think your copy-and-paste of the image missed the "title" attribute of the original, which makes the statement in the cartoon even more pointed:
I spent more time trying to get an audible.com audio book playing than it took to listen to the book. I have lost every other piece of DRM-locked music I have paid for.

Hey laaaaady! Looking at Lewis' legacy
Hey, laaaaady!
Just that single line uttered by one of the most iconic comedians in American film history is enough to put me in a good five-minute giggle fit.Maybe I'm just old fashioned — it certainly wouldn't be a new charge against me — but the mental image of the very daffy Jerry Lewis will always put a smile on my face, no matter how "mad at the world" I might be.
At home, we have all of the available Jerry Lewis films added to our Netflix instant queue. Being the ol' Navy guy, my particular favorite is "Don't Give Up the Ship!" But I've gotten a lot of laughs out of his first independent film, "The Bellboy," a perpetual source of happiness I've shared with my family.

Version 2.5 of the ArduCopter code is now available in the AP Mission Planner and in the downloads area!
The default PIDs are optimized for a 3DR/Jdrones quad with 850 motors and 10" props. If you're using more powerful motors/props, start by turning down Rate Roll P in 25% steps.
While some testers have reported very good flights with the default PIDs, some have reported that this release is a little "sharper" due to the DCM improvements and have found they needed to:
reduce stabilize P by 10% (i.e. 4.5 -> 4.2)
reduce stabilize D by 30% (i.e. 0.15 -> 0.10)
increase rate D from 0 to 0.001
Tuning loiter can be tricky. Refer to the discussions which will appear below for more community feedback on what parameters work best.
Please post your feedback in this discussion. For enhancement requests and bug report, please add them to the arducopter issues list. When possible please include logs (tlog and/or dataflash) and tell us whether you're using APM1 or APM2 and what version of the software you're using (presumably 2.5 but tell us anyway!).
Thanks for this release go to the developers (both in the core team but also those who have provided bug fixes through the issues list) and also the community members who participated in the previous release thread and provided some great detailed information in the form of issue reports and logs which allowed us to nail some bugs!
You have a lot of compass noise and it gives inconsistent values (compared to gyro yaw). Try to recalibrate the compass in the Mission Planner (It helped me to get better compass values).
Yes, everybody with serious yaw issues should try flying with the compass turned off. Eliminate the mag as a source of the error. That was what happened to me. I turned it off, but the yaw problems remained, so I tracked it down to mechanical/code for Trad-heli which is what led to my yaw fix.
But if your yaw problems go away, then you know you have a mag problem.
I have gone through several batteries on 2.6 Epsilon (quad 10x4.7 apm2 880kv)- so far-
Altitude hold now fixed, can add or remove weight and it holds well. I did increase AH P to .9, rest all default.
Have not seen simple mode problem that was in last version
Loiter was best I have seen lately, maybe 2m drift at worst (low wind)
Yaw seems OK, did not twist on takeoff
The latest stable mode is remarkable. I have not bothered with autotrim, balancing blades, or any of that nonsense and it will hover motionlessly in no wind- even better, it has the best sound I have heard. How they sound in low wind is a big clue to how well it is working.
I did try 12x3.8 blades and the default pids left me with a little oscillation. I tried lowering a bit and it got better, but the 10x4.7 with pids at .18/0/.04 is still the best.
My anecdotal experiences of 2.6eps...
APM2, stuck to tupperware with sellotape foam, tupperware bolted to frame (i.e. total disregard for antivibration - at half throttle the gps unit could give you a massage if correctly placed! I'm doing this on purpose - I call it NDT, i do balance my props and motors, it's nothing but madness not to ;).) If I can get it to work well like this, then an isolated APM and perfectly balanced, high spec frame is going to reign supreme
Light, and quite bent, (jakub) tri frame 60cm m-m.
Turnigy c2830 1050kv motors, one of which grinds a bit.
Turnigy 40a, esc's (heavy but i had them lying around) stock firmware
10*4.5 props
3s 2.2's or 2.65's (must try some 4s....)
Xbees always active, stuck right next to APM
Spectrum receiver the other side to the xbees
Piss poor analogue tail servo i robbed out of an 'art-tech' heli \0/ (yes, i know...)
Hardware 'kill switch'. I'm in tight space, a run away is not an option.
Upshot is (remember this is 2.6 Epsilon)
Acro - usable, fun, what raw RC flying is all about, i think there may be a few tweaks - tuning or code, not sure as not tuned yet, too busy flying acro.
Stabilise - the most stable its been for me. I almost did a vid of me flinging the tri in the air unpowered and then just hitting the throttle to bring it level and fairly still - it was inspiring so much confidence! Then remembered I was in the garden so settled for trimming long grass, dusting the barbeque, nudging the motobike till the tilt alarm beeps ( i must do a vid of that actually), and trying to further train my brain in nose-in and side-on orientation. Not bad for an untuned, ropey looking, bent, overpowered tri.
Alt-hold - baro-only for now.
Just spot on, the APM2 baro is great and the code seems spot on, and for me the defaults for throttle and alt rate were fine. I was flicking the switch 3 feet up, giving full pitch forward into full pitch back over and over again, over a space of 20 feet (length of my 'garden' if you've seen it) I just skimmed the grass with either the tail or the front arms for about 2 mins, never got more than 4 feet away, never got closer than 2 feet. Sonar is now only really good for terrain following/avoidance and showing off 'using the force' ;)
Bare in mind small area, built up, so not proper testing. Nasty swirly winds, tried below the fence line a few times before i went for it, and i was impressed so went for it. The tri is light and was getting, literally, thrown 20 feet downwind, in almost any direction due to swirling gusts between buildings, but it was leaning back towards home all the way with power and determination. It needs tuning/tweaking ;) but the new default params are much better, i will be tuning and keeping a close eye on any ideas anyone has on improving the code for this, I'm actually starting to understand some of it...
When the rain stops...
I have a few minor issues, most of which probably (shoddy) hardware related. I'll test and report if necessary.
The last few beta releases have been a great step forward, looking forward to the fruition of the work going into yaw, loiter and auto.
Well done all :)
The video of the 2.6 final version is on my youtube channel...
In the description the specs of my quad.
Bests, Marco
Hello Marco
Excellent, well done, I hope to reproduce your flights this weekend with my quad & 2.6
I am waiting for your skills and ...... the same cap ...! ..
2.6 is released! All aboard on the 2.6 release discussion here!

Daytrip Fringe Cropped Cardigan Sweater
$34.95 Item #35505S1FZC050A- Striped pointelle 3/4 sleeve cardigan sweater
- 6" fringe
- Layering piece(s) sold separately
Daytrip Fringe Cropped Cardigan Sweater 1 1
cute but interesting I bought this top on a whim at the store. When I tried it on at home It was definitely a cute top that will go with many things, but it doesn't sit on my shoulders comfortably, it kinda falls off and I have to keep pulling it back up onto my shoulders, the seams don't look like they were sown right so it hangs funny.It snags on my ring or bracelets so I have to be careful because I've almost ripped larger holes in it lol.I like the fringe look and its cute with my boots. But It's something you have to try on first. Its just okay for me. I wish it sat on my shoulders better. November 17, 2012

Next up for Halloween Week here at BWR, a creepy cocktail... Given the sobriquet "Corpse Reviver", I'd suggest this as a fun apéritif for your Halloween party this year.
While looking around for more information on cocktails, I stumbled upon the excellent blog Oh Gosh! written by Jay in England. Since I lean more towards the classics I liked the sound of the Corpse Reviver #2 from the 1930 edition of The Savoy Cocktail Book by Harry Craddock.
The drink is equal parts gin, Lillet Blanc, Cointreau, and lemon juice (fresh squeezed only, please), with just a dash of pastis, absinthe, or other anise-flavored liqueur. Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass, garnish with a cherry if desired. It's meant as a restorative breakfast beverage, but in my opinion is much better as a refreshing afternoon cocktail. I'm just not a fan of drinking before the mail arrives. The flavors balance out well with each other, and the touch of pastis adds a sophisticated element to the drink.
Keep this in mind for next summer as a good "grown up lemonade", which reminds me of something my friend Paul and I used to make back in our novice drinking days. We'd combine generic artificial lemonade, 7-up, and vodka. We called it Limonov Sevenupski and in retrospect it was syrupy sweet, but that helped cover up the flavor of the sometimes prison-grade vodka used. (There was one called McPherson's or something that was made in Missouri and sold for about $15 a gallon.)
On a similar note, my high school physics teacher had a previous career as a C-130 pilot for the Navy. He used to fly supply missions to Antarctic science stations, and he taught us about a cocktail enjoyed down there that he called Absolute Zero. The recipe involved stealing pure grain alcohol from the lab and adding crystallized orange juice concentrate to make the Devil's own screwdriver. As he told the group of 11th graders, "You could get drunk off the fumes alone."

I am so making these this Sunday for our, "Hang on the couch and watch football" day....I'm kind of a whimp when it comes to cocktails, I really only drink; Gin and Tonics, Martinis, (Real ones, Gin), Margaritas and Pastis....well, I don't count the occasional shot of Jamison, (I'm an Irish girl so that is more akin to Mother's Milk than a drink)so could there be a more perfect drink for me to try?!
It is still in the 80's out here so this sounds like a great whistle whetter. - Wednesday, October 29, 2008 7:24:00 AM

Let me know what you think of it--just measure carefully, as this one can get knocked off balance with too much pastis.

Will do and thanks for the tip...I can be a little heavy handed with the Pastis.

Newer isn't better for diabetics with heart disease, more of whom live longer after old-fashioned bypass surgery than by using the more modern technology of stents.
Canadian-led research may have finally solved one of the most intense debates in modern medicine — by finding that people with diabetes are 33-per-cent less likely to die within five years if they undergo breastbone-splitting coronary artery bypass surgery than if they undergo the less-invasive procedure in which blocked arteries are widened from the inside and propped open with little coils of mesh.
"Mortality trumps everything — you're either here, or you're not," said principal author Dr. Subodh Verma, a cardiac surgeon at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto.
For diabetics with multiple blocked or narrowed arteries who choose open-heart surgery over stents, "At five years, you've got a one-third greater chance of being here compared to not," he said.
Fast-tracked for publication in the journal Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology, the study is likely to change medical practice, said co-author Dr. Marc Ruel, chief of cardiac surgery at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. "I think it should, definitely."
Diabetics account for one-quarter of all patients who undergo procedures for coronary artery disease. "We're talking huge numbers — literally millions of people worldwide."
Diabetes is "rampant" in Canada and growing, Verma added. According to the Canadian Diabetes Association, three million people in Canada are currently living with the disease; another six million are in a state of pre-diabetes. By 2020, 10 per cent of the population will be affected.
Diabetes ages a person's cardiovascular system 10 years, Verma said. "For a population that is just growing and expanding, the implications (of the study) are tremendous."
"If you have diabetes you should ask your physician to carefully instruct you about the risks and benefits (of bypass surgery versus stents)," he said. "To be coloured by, 'I won't have my chest opened for bypass surgery' may actually be the wrong choice."
People with diabetes have nearly twice the risk of dying from heart disease as non-diabetics. They also tend to have more aggressive and relentless atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries, caused by a buildup of plaque. Often multiple arteries are blocked. Clogged arteries slow blood flow to the heart, causing chest pain, shortness of breath and an increased risk of heart attack and death.
Over the years, cardiac surgeons increasingly moved away from open-heart surgery for blocked arteries and instead embraced the more contemporary era of stenting.
With bypass surgery, a healthy artery from the chest wall or arm, or a vein from the leg, is used as a graft to reroute blood flow around the blocked or narrowed vessel.
Stenting involves installing small coils of wire mesh into the blockages via a balloon-tipped catheter inserted into a vein in the groin and up into the heart. These miniature scaffolds can be placed throughout a diseased artery to keep it from closing again. Ruel said that, although many patients benefit from stents, the risks of stents re-narrowing, or of blood clots forming can be higher in people with diabetes.
Open-heart surgery, by contrast, bypasses the diseased artery completely.
Surgeons can use either bare metal stents or stents coated in chemotherapy-like drugs designed to keep cells from growing over the stent and re-blocking the artery.
But whether stents beat bypass surgery for diabetic patients has been controversial, with none of the studies big enough on their own to provide a clear answer.
For the new study, the international team pooled data from eight trials in which diabetic patients were randomized to receive either surgery or stenting.
After a median five years of follow-up, the bypass patients had a lower risk of dying, as well as a 60-per-cent lower risk of needing a repeat procedure, compared to the patients who received stents. There were no differences whether stenting was performed using metallic stents or the newer "drug eluting" stents.
While the bypass patients had a lower risk of dying, they had an increased risk of non-fatal strokes. Diabetics have more disease in other arteries as well, including arteries going to the leg, head and arm, increasing their risk of stroke.
As well, patients are often taken off blood thinners before surgery, to make the operation safer, "or at least presumably more safe. Now we realize we should probably not stop those medications prior to surgery," Ruel said.
Verma said stents are "excellent choices" for people with blockages or narrowing in only a single vessel. "They're excellent choices for people who don't have diabetes," he added. "They're excellent choices even for some diabetic patients who aren't candidates for open heart surgery.
"But I think the issue here is, if you have diabetes and you are considering stenting versus bypass surgery, be fully informed about the risks and benefits," he said.

06 sierra front radio speakers
i bought an 06 sierra 1500 last august. the 2 front radio speakers haven't worked until this week. the rear speakers always worked great. this week the fronts started working intermittently. also notice the warning chime also works for door ajar,seatbelt not buckled etc. which never worked until the speakers started working. was wondering where i should start first to try and find the problem? forgot to add that the radio is just a plain jane OEM am/fm thanks for any replies.
05-08-2013, 07:09 PM #2the chimes now work because thats where you hear the chimes from. Outside of that the not working for months then suddenly working is a little odd. I would first start with checking the wiring as it could be as simple as a broken wire that for some reason is not connecting.
Did you finally go to the Fade in the stereo and turn the speakers back on up front. Sorry couldnt resistDavid

hahaha. no the fade was on for the front speakers but i could do something like that. speakers were working again till about an hour ago. now they are out again. i will start checking the wiring. do you know if the radio is hard to get out of the dash. it maybe a wire plug on that. thanks for the reply.
05-08-2013, 08:42 PM #4If it is similar to the one that was in my truck its really simple. pull the dash panel over instrument cluster/controls off, the are just the pull off clips. Then its like 3 screws.
