Tom Skerritt Movies
Tom Skerritt
is probably the best-known actor whose name is never remembered. A rugged "outdoors" type, Skerritt briefly attended Wayne State University and UCLA before making his film bow in
War Hunt
(1962). His subsequent film and TV roles were sizeable, but so adept was Skerritt at immersing himself in his character that he seemed to have no tangible, recurrent personality of his own. Billed second as "Duke" in the original
(1970), Skerritt did his usual finely-honed job, but audiences of the time preferred the demonstrative, mannered acting technique of
Elliott Gould
Donald Sutherland
Robert Duvall
; significantly, Skerritt's character was not carried over into the even more unsubtle
TV series. Finally, in 1980, Skerritt began to attain a following with his authoritative performance in
. Since that time, there's been no stopping him. He posed in a popular series of "Guess?" Jeans ads, appeared as a 1987-88 regular on "Cheers," starred in 1992's
A River Runs Through It
(directed by his long-ago
War Hunt
Robert Redford
), and won a 1994 Emmy for his work on the TV series "Picket Fences."
Skerritt would continue to work at a remarkable pace, usually appearing in several projects a year. From 1999's family drama The Other Sister to 2003's war thriller Tears of the Sun, the actor could be spotted by fans of seemingly every area of film throughout the 90's and 2000's. In 2006, he took a recurring role in the hit primetime drama Brothers and Sisters, and in 2008 he signed on for the redneck comedy Beer for my Horses. He went on to appear in Whiteout, Multiple Sarcasms, and he made a cameo as himself in the R rated talking teddy bear movie Ted.

Live-action filmmaking mixes with imaginative animation in director Michael Landon Jr.'s feature adaptation of author Margery Williams' beloved children's book. An energetic child with a vivid imagination, Toby Morgan (Matthew Harbour) lives with his father (Kevin Jubinville), a successful businessman who seemed to shut down emotionally following the death of Toby's mother. When Toby is sent to spend the Christmas holidays with his loving but stern grandmother (Una Kay), he wanders through the lonely house until he eventually discovers the "magic attic" that was once his father's childhood playroom. There, Toby is surprised to find that his mother left him a stuffed velveteen rabbit -- her final gift to her beloved son. Hugging the rabbit close as he starts to cry, the grieving boy watches in wonder as his tears magically bring the toy to life. Before long, Toby is frolicking in the enchanted attic with a whole new group of friends, including the impetuous Horse (voiced by Tom Skerritt) and the wise but skittish Swan (voice of Ellen Burstyn). Toby's one wish is to spend Christmas with his father, and Rabbit's one wish is to someday hop across the fields as a real rabbit. Later, when Toby falls seriously ill, the courageous Rabbit helps him to win over his grandmother and make a full recovery. When Toby's father returns in time for Christmas, the power of the young child's love grants the Velveteen Rabbit its one true wish. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A U.S. marshall tracking a vicious murderer through the Antarctic must locate the killer before the sun sets for six months, or risk being trapped in the dark with the madman for months on end in director Dominic Sena's adaptation of the graphic novel series by Greg Rucka. U.S. marshall Carrie Stetko (Kate Beckinsale) has been stationed at Antarctica's South Pole research base for two years, and now after turning in her resignation she's looking forward to finally going home. The last plane out leaves in just three days, and just after that Antarctica will not see the sun again for another 24 weeks. Then, just 72 hours before she is set to escape the coming darkness, a body is discovered in the ice -- prompting the first murder investigation ever to take place on the desolate Antarctic Circle continent. Little does Carrie realize that she's suddenly been thrust into a mystery over 60 years in the making, and that the killer is ready to strike again in order to protect a grim secret. Now, as the death toll starts to rise, loyalties shift, and a massive series of whiteouts blow bitter winds across the frozen landscape, the U.S. marshall who wanted nothing more than to escape the cold must work around the clock to catch a killer before the blinding white snow gives way to the deadly darkness of winter. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Rivers of a Lost Coast
The quintessentially American pastime known as fly fishing first took shape at the dawn of the 20th Century, when a cadre of pioneers gathered on the Northern Coast of California and began casting their rods into the surf. News of these events spread, until the men inadvertently gave rise to an entire subculture of steelhead fly fishing. At the front of the group stood Bill Schaadt, a mythical figure known for his uncanny angling ability As exciting as all of this was, however, it had a down side as well: by the early 1980s, the collective obsession with fly fishing sent California's fisheries into a seemingly permanent decline. This program looks at the initial emergence of the sport and investigates its long-term casualties. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Dougray Scott essays the role of author Robert Louis Stevenson's maniacal medico in director Paolo Barzman's retelling of the classic gothic tale. A highly regarded physician who dedicates all of this spare time to unlocking the secrets of a rare Amazonian flower, Dr. Henry Jekyll (Scott) is about to discover a side of himself that he never knew existed. The sacred flower is said to possess a mystical power that can literally separate the soul, summoning man's Dark Self and unleashing a side of the personality that lies dormant until awoken by its mysterious psychotropic properties. As Dr. Jekyll attempts to isolate those properties and unlock the flower's mysteries, a series of gruesome murders begin making headlines all across the city. Dr. Jekyll knows that this is no coincidence, because every morning when he wakes up clutching a grim memento from the night before, the screams of his terrified victims still echoing through his head. Realizing that it's only a matter of time before the personality he calls "Mr. Edward Hyde" takes over completely, Dr. Jekyll enlists the aid of compassionate attorney Claire Wheaton (Krista Bridges) in ensuring that he be placed in an asylum - where Mr. Hyde can do no further harm. In the courtroom, Mrs. Wheaton gives such a convincing case for mental imbalance that the judge readily agrees to have Dr. Jekyll institutionalized. But while this may be the end of Dr. Jekyll it's only the beginning for Mr. Hyde, because the harder Claire tries to help the conflicted physician the more dangerous his murderous alter ego becomes. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Country music star Toby Keith writes and stars in this road movie comedy inspired by his chart-topping hit of the same name. Beer for My Horses opens to find small-town deputies and longtime buddies Rack (Keith) and Lonnie (Rodney Carrington) quietly enforcing the law in a small Southern town. Things are relatively quiet in their neck of the woods, so when a violent drug lord (Carlos Sanz) kidnaps Rack's girlfriend (Claire Forlani) in response to seeing his brother (Greg Serano) get arrested, Sheriff Landry (Tom Skerrit) implores them to sit tight and let the professionals handle the case. But Rack and Lonnie aren't about to let Rack's girlfriend suffer any harm at the hands of the notoriously vicious kingpin, and after enlisting the aid of taciturn, bow-and-arrow-toting fellow lawman Skunk Tarver (Ted Nugent), the trio sets out to rescue the girl and ensure that justice is served. The CMT Films production is directed by Michael Salomon (A Glimpse of Hell), with Willie Nelson and Barry Corbin filling out the supporting cast. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde
A renowned physician researching the powers of a rare Amazonian flower said to separate the self from the soul finds his experiment with the psychotropic plant coinciding with a series of sadistic murders in this updating of the classic story by Robert Louis Stevenson. Upon learning of a rare flower rumored to give life to man's "Dark Self" Dr. Henry Jekyll begins conducting the research that could provide a monumental breakthrough in contemporary psychology. But each time Dr. Jekyll ingests the plant another person turns up dead, leading him to believe that his "Dark Self" is slowly coming into its own. Realizing that the only way out of his predicament is to throw himself at the mercy of the court and finally be put out of his misery, the tormented physician hires a compassionate attorney known for taking on lost causes. Her case for mental imbalance is convincing enough to get Dr. Jekyll locked away for life in an asylum, but while the good doctor may be safely locked away his murderous alter-ego somehow roams free. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Masters of Horror creator Mick Garris joins forces with literary horror icon Stephen King for this, the pair's sixth onscreen collaboration. In the wind-swept Nevada town of Desperation, a malevolent sheriff (Ron Perlman) delivers arrestees to a jail cell from which, by all accounts, no one has emerged alive. The streets are littered with the corpses of dead residents, and it appears that a sinister supernatural force has tightened its deadly grip on the once-thriving community. Arrested by the sinister lawman and subsequently thrown behind bars, a vacationing family, a traveling writer (Tom Skeritt), and a drifting hitchhiker (Steven Weber) narrowly thwart death by escaping their cold metal confines. Upon coming into contact with a mysterious prepubescent boy named David (Shane Haboucha) who seems to possesses an eerie insight into the ancient evil that haunts the town, the brave group boldly determines to solve the combat the evil that has infected this desolate landscape. Despite some notable help from the surviving town veteran (Charles Durning) and the dejected female half of a married couple (Annabeth Gish) who recently incurred the wrath of the nefarious sheriff, this unlikely band of weakened mortals seems no match for the powerful evil that now inhabits the town of Desperation. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A woman looking to fulfill her late husband's final wish sets out on a transformative cross-country road trip in director Christopher N. Rowley's warmhearted tale of friendship, self-discovery, and the memories that make life worth living even after the ones we love have gone. Arvilla (Jessica Lange)'s husband Joe has recently died during a trip to Borneo, and his ashes have just arrived at her home in Pocatello, ID. Though Joe had previously specified in his will that he would like his ashes scattered by his beloved wife, the well-intending Arvilla soon becomes locked in a heated battle of wills with Francine (Christine Baranski) -- Joe's well-to-do daughter from a previous marriage. Francine is determined to see her father laid to rest next to her mother in Santa Barbara, and she's threatened to sell the house that her father and Arvilla have lived in since marrying to ensure that she gets her way. Now Arvilla has lost Joe's will, leaving no way to confirm either what he wanted done with his remains or what Arvilla is to receive upon her husband's death. Defeated, Arvilla sets her sights on Santa Barbara to surrender the ashes to Francine and attempt to come to terms with the loss of her husband. When Arvilla's sassy best-friend Margene (Kathy Bates) and uptight pal Carol (Joan Allen) agree to join their recently-widowed friend on her journey and offer some much-needed moral support, the trio soon sets out in Arvilla's vintage '66 Pontiac Bonneville for a journey of a lifetime. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A series of massive tidal waves decimate the entire East Coast, leading a renegade expert on man made ecological disasters and weapons of mass destruction to suspect that a force far more human than Mother Nature is at work in this terrifying mini-series starring Angus Macfayden, Tom Skerritt, and Karin Vanasse. The first wave hit the East Coast without warning, with subsequent tsunamis following in quick succession. Before long towns all along the coast have been destroyed, and scientists are at a loss to explain just where these gigantic waves originated. When top scientists fail to find a conventional explanation for the waves, renegade ecological expert John McAdams (Macfayden) is called upon to offer a hypothesis. Upon consulting with Oceanographic Institute genius Sophie Marleau (Vanasse), McAdams begins to suspect that the waves are man made disasters specifically designed to keep the population in check. After McAdams makes his suspicions public, another scientist attempts to uncover who is behind the conspiracy and is promptly murdered - leaving McAdams as the prime suspect in the killing. Later, McAdams discovers the true identity of the terrorist whose sub-aquatic nuclear missiles are holding an entire country in fear. But as the earth begins to quake and the seas begin to swell once again, it may already be too late to stop the latest attack. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A series of devastating storms are leveling major cities across the globe, and it's up to discredited scientist Faith Clavell (Shannon Doherty), dedicated storm chaser Tommy Tornado (Randy Quaid), and the FEMA head Judith Carr (Gina Gerson) to journey into the eye of the storm and find out just why mother nature has turned so violently on mankind in the shocking sequel to 2004's weather-gone-wild thriller Category 6: Day of Destruction. An unprecedented Category Six storm has leveled the Eiffel Tower and reduced the Great Pyramids to rubble, and as the pitch black funnel clouds lay waste to anything and everything in their path, three dedicated heroes attempt to discover whether the malevolent weather is the cause of global warming, or something far more sinister. When a vengeful gang of terrorists threaten to use the storms to their advantage by staging a large scale attack the likes of which the world has never seen, it seems as if it very well may be the end of the world. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Homeland Security

Add Homeland Security to top of Queue
The NBC made-for-TV movie Homeland Security endeavors to put a human face on the events leading up to 9/11, and the post-tragedy formation of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. On the verge of retirement, FBI agent Joe Johnson (Scott Glenn) is brought back to help organize the department, in concert with Admiral McKee (Tom Skerritt). Also on the ground floor of the department is feisty female CIA operative "Jungle Jane" Fulbar (Marisol Nichols) who has enjoyed (if that is the word) a long-standing friendly rivalry with the FBI. The "conscience" character hereabouts is security expert Sol Binder (Leland Orser), who blames the failure to "connect the dots" in the months prior to 9/11 on the lack of cooperation between the two major governmental peacekeeping agencies. Adding a dash of suspense to the otherwise predictable proceedings is the presence of McKee's daughter Melissa (Stephi Lineburg), who, along with her Arab boyfriend, is booked on the ill-fated Flight 29. Likewise enlivening things a bit is the lively-if-traditional villainy of all-purpose terrorist Saif Khan (Nicholas Guilak). The uneven, sometimes incoherent story structure can be attributed to the fact that Homeland Security was the heavily re-edited combination of two pilot episodes for a never-sold TV series. The "finished" product originally aired on April 11, 2004. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A career soldier is forced to choose between following orders and saving lives in this action thriller. Lt. A.K. Waters (Bruce Willis) is a veteran Navy SEAL whose commander (Tom Skerritt) has given his team a special assignment. A Central African nation is expected to explode into war at any moment, and Waters and his cohorts are to escort any American citizens in the area to safety, most notably Dr. Lena Kendricks (Monica Bellucci), a doctor from the United States who has set up a clinic in the jungle. Waters and his men find Kendricks, but she refuses to leave with them unless she can bring along 70 refugees who have been left to her care. Kendricks makes it clear that if they are left behind, the refugees will face certain death, but Waters's C.O. insists he bring back Kendricks -- but not her patients. Forced by his conscience to disobey orders, Waters and his team race against time to escort the refugees to a border town where they will find safe haven before invading troops can ambush them. Tears of the Sun (which was produced under the title Man of War) also features Cole Hauser and Fionnula Flanagan. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Inspired by author Robert A. Caro's massive biography of President Lyndon Baines Johnson, the made-for-cable Path to War retraces the world-shaking events occurring between LBJ's jubilant inaugural in 1965 and his tired, dispirited decision not to seek another presidential term in 1968. At the crux of these tumultuous three years is the war in Vietnam, which forces Johnson (here played by Michael Gambon) to shunt his proposed "Great Society" to the back burner. Though famous in political circles as a wrangler and compromiser, LBJ cannot seem to do anything right in pursuing the war; nor are his chief advisors, the hawkish Robert McNamara (Alec Baldwin) and the dove-ish Clark Clifford (Donald Sutherland), able to forge a permanent policy agreement. As Clifford warns Johnson that "escalation will ruin you, and all the great good you want to do," McNamara presses for a continuation of the war lest America lose face and Vietnam fall to the Communists. The story unfolds with the inexorability of a Shakespearean tragedy, with Johnson as a modern-day Macbeth, Richard III, and King Lear rolled into one. Of interest to non-history buffs is the appearance of two original cast members of the 1969 film M*A*S*H: Donald Sutherland as Clark Clifford and Tom Skerritt as William Westmoreland. Directed by political-movie veteran John Frankenheimer, Path to War made its HBO cable network debut on May 18, 2002. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A shared affliction -- namely, breast cancer -- forges an unlikely friendship between two Southern women, ebullient young Amber Collins (Lauren Holly) and crabby, reclusive oldster Betty Miller (Faye Dunaway). As they join forces to battle and cope with their disease, Amber and Betty also end up helping one another with their respective romantic entanglements. Tom Skerritt is cast as Betty's faithless former flame, Johnny Pinkley (now the self-styled Lothario of a nursing home), while Ian Somerhalder plays Amber's troubled -- and much younger -- amour Jason Kelly. Daniel Wright adapted the script of this independently produced movie from his own award-winning play Colored Eggs (the film's working title), retaining the original's sizeable supporting cast of lovable eccentrics. Decked out with musical highlights by Rita Coolidge, Earl and Randy Scruggs, Jan Howard, and Jeannie Seely, Changing Hearts was given scattered theatrical release in 2002 before it was picked up for TV play by the Lifetime cable network. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Adapted from the stage comedy by Wendy Wasserstein, the made-for-cable An American Daughter was clearly inspired by the "Nannygate" imbroglio surrounding President Bill Clinton's political appointees Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood. Christine Lahti stars as Lyssa Dent Hughes, the daughter of a prominent U.S. Senator and a descendent of no less than Ulysses S. Grant. Just when it seems as if Hughes' appointment to the office of U.S. Surgeon General is a done deal, her husband Walter (Tom Skerritt) accidentally reveals a skeleton in Lyssa's closet: It seems that, years earlier, she'd had the temerity to ignore a summons for jury duty. This, coupled with several newly exposed inconsistencies concerning Lyssa's "official" biography, seriously jeopardize her political future, leaving her at the mercy of the horrible juggernaut of peer persecution and public opinion. Highlights of this timely tome include a brief spoof of the daytime TV interview series The View. Produced just in time to cash in on the upcoming presidential elections (not to mention the myriad of scandals attending the Clinton administration), An American Daughter (aka Trial by Media) made its Lifetime Network bow on June 5, 2000. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

List of Super Smash Bros. series characters
A character is one of the fighters in the Super Smash Bros. series. Characters can be sorted into playable and non-playable, which distinguishes whether characters can be used without the use of a cheat device (like Action Replay) or not. Playable characters can further be divided into starter and unlockable, which distinguishes whether characters can be played right away, or whether they need to be unlocked.
Playable charactersThis is a list of the playable characters in the Super Smash Bros. series. Shaded cells denote unlockable characters. Yellow tildes indicate a character has yet to be confirmed or denied for Super Smash Bros. 4. Note that for every character in Super Smash Bros. 4, it is currently unknown whether they are going to be starter or unlockable. Non-playable charactersThe following characters are considered non-playable. These include boss characters and enemy teams, among others. Hacking may allow some level of play. As no such characters are confirmed for SSB4, this list will not have such a column. *While Giant DK and Metal Mario were unplayable in the original Super Smash Bros., they are effectively playable in Melee and Brawl by picking up a Super Mushroom or a Metal Box, respectively. **Giga Bowser is playable in Brawl as Bowser's Final Smash. ***Master Hand is playable in Melee through the Name Entry glitch. ****Sandbag is mechanically considered an item in Brawl, not a character. Newcomers and VeteransA Newcomer is a playable character in the series who has been introduced in a particular game, but did not exist in previous installments. By contrast, a Veteran is a character who returns in new games after appearing as a playable character in previous games. Note that the definition of newcomers is distinct from that of unlockable, or secret characters, which are playable characters who must be unlocked by completing certain tasks. The term newcomer was used to describe the unlockable characters in the original Super Smash Bros. It was later used in the first trailer for Super Smash Bros. Brawl, in which new characters were introduced with the title "Newcomer" atop the screen. The word newcomer was later used on the Smash Bros. DOJO!! site to classify new characters that were not secret. However, the use of the term has since broadened and is now understood in the context of both Melee and Brawl. For example, Peach is considered a veteran fighter in Brawl, but a newcomer in Melee. "Perfect-attendance crew"Less commonly, "veterans" can also denote the "eight regulars", "perfect attendance fighters" or "the original 8", terms which refer to the eight starter characters in the original Super Smash Bros. These fighters are also present as playable characters in both Melee and Brawl. The first two terms originated in the description for the 10th Brawl event match All-Star Battle Regulars, as follows.
"The original 8", and by extension "the original 12" are fan coined terms, the latter referring to the entire playable cast of the original Smash Bros. Trivia

""Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu helmi 25, 2013
Just ok for overnight. Good location to Ohare Airport and complimenary airport shuttle.Only issue is that the breakfast not complimentary and very little is available - recommended to have breakfast somewhere else.
"Good stay despite of the rocky beginning"Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu helmi 25, 2013
I'm very happy that the hotel is in a safe area as when I checked in and was given the key once I opened my room's door there was already another customer there! (He was not naked) I was quickly, naturally, assigned another room and the we were both apologised. But I was not compensated in anyway for this really bizarre mistake that was made. Anyhow, I enjoyed my 10-day-stay. It was my second time already and I'll most likely will return as I love how clean the rooms are kept, the Greek tavern next door, and the possibility to go skating at the Lombard Roller Rink locally.

"Great location for the area"
It was a nice, clean , friendly hotel in a great locationAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"Typical Holiday Inn Express"
Room was quiet and beds were comfortable. Could use a more thorough cleaning as shower area and window was a little dirty.Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"Disappointing room"
We love HIE and always choose it if available at a competitive price. We have stayed at this HIE before, and we were very satisfied despite the fact that they had given our room away and we ended up with a queen and a rollaway instead of 2 queens. This time, however, we were quite dissatisfied with our room. We did not know that the "back 40" even existed. […] Our room was as far as you could get from reception area without being outside. It appeared to be in an older part of the hotel, like they had purchased an old hotel and then added the spiffy new one at the front. The trip was roundabout down hallways, down a corridor with broken ceramic tiling that passed the hotel laundry facilities. The room had 2 doubles, not queens The bed I was in had a hard ridge at the edge, and was squeaky when you got into it.. When we put the blower on, the resultant atmosphere smelled of old smoking smell. Explanation was the the smoking rooms are on the second floor and smell could be in ventilation system. Otherwise the room was clean and had what we needed. The warm cookies and late-checkout were appreciated. The breakfast was good, and was put out early for those participating in a large local event. Price was about $40 more than I paid 2 years ago, though. LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"Good for what we needed"
This was a comfortable room with quality beds and an excellent hot breakfast included every morning. I didn't love the outdoor pool, though it would have been nice during the summer. Just seems to make more sense to have an indoor pool in IL. The staff was helpful and the location just fine off the main drag, but not particularly near anything exciting […] - we couldn't walk most places. Still, a great value, a great place to stay. LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"It was ok"
Nothing here stuck out as fantastic. The rooms were comfortable but outdated. The hotel was configured a bit odd as the upstairs wasn't all continuous. There is no elevator so if you need one make sure to note in reservation.Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"A Stressful Time"
We were in town for a family tragedy and we appreciated not having hotel concernsAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu

"Wonderful and professional staff"
We had a wedding near this hotel and so it was a quick overnight but everything was very clean, neat, and well maintained. I would absolutely stay there again!!!Aito Expedian asiakkaan arvostelu
"Good for passing through"
The hotel was good but the room was very humid and had a damp smell to it. The rest of the conditions were great. The room was clean but the humid atmosphere made it a poor first impression. Once we had the air conditioner on for a while it improved.Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
very uncomfortable bed. also very small. Wish the double rooms were queen size, because two people could not possibly sleep comfortably on it.Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"Easy to find."
I just stayed at the St. Charles, IL. Holiday Inn Express for one night. The room was spotless, the bed was comfortable, though the pillows were on the lumpy side (my home pillows are feather) but I never like hotel pillows. The TV was great, vending area clean. Though I did not use the pool, people looked like they were enjoying themselves. I would […] stay there again. LisätietojaAito Expedian asiakkaan arvostelu
"Very Nice"
Construction was going on for the whole street for a few miles but once in the hotel it was very nice. Pool and area very clean. We had a double room and the bed was small, would have preferred that the double had queens instead of full but very clean. Breakfast was also great! Will stay again!Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"St. Charles"
Very nice room, hotel staff very helpful, and the break feast was wonderfulAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
I would never stay at this Holiday Inn again. I have never had a bad experience before at a Holiday Inn Express before this. Definitely not up to the Holiday Inn standards. They need to drastically update EVERYTHING.Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"Great stay"
Breakfast served was great and rooms fantasticAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"Never Again!"
Although, the room was clean and the breakfast was sufficient, I will not go back to this Holiday Inn. Not up to the standards I have for the Holiday Inn Brand. The pool was nice, located outside, but the outside door to get from the pool courtyard back inside did NOT lock, meaning anyone had access inside the hotel. Also, I tried to use the exercise […] room and was not able to. 1- it was over 85* degrees in there, and 2- the maid was in my personal space as she proceeded to clean every square inch of the room, including the treadmill I was on!!! It was just too uncomfortable to get my workout done!! LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"Terrific staff -- but terrible lumpy beds!!!"
The staff was top notch -- very friendly & knowledgeable. They even guided me back there by phone when I got lost. The renovations were obvious: new wallpaper, new art, new bathroom countertops. HOWEVER, the beds were atrocious. The edges were like mashed potatoes & then you had to move around to find a firm place in the middle. To make the visual […] improvements without the BASIC THING: THE BED -- was total stupidity on someone's part. I mean, what is the FOCUS of your stay? Duh, sleeping on a bed... The breakfast was terrific as well. The parking at the side door was fantastic -- but it was often unlocked!! However, if you like a firm bed, this is NOT the place for you.

The hotel was clean, staff was friendly and helpful, and our room was very nice. Staff suggested some places to go to eat and gave us directions on how to get there. Breakfast was good and plenty to start off the day.Aito Expedian asiakkaan arvostelu
First I want to say the young woman at the desk when we arrived on June 29th was very nice and professional. Overall it was a good stay. We had breakfast in the morning and it was good. I could do without the microwave bacon but everything else was great and they even had a pancake maker. I think the room was a little high priced but hey it is near […] Chicago so everything is high. I would stay there again. LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu

Excellent location one mile east od downtown Geneva. Staff experience generally good, room all good except noisy in-wall air conditioner.Aito Expedian asiakkaan arvostelu

The room was clean, but was next to an outside door where people were allowed to smoke and the room smelled like smoke. The front desk was great and offered us a different room, but we stayed.Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"great hotel, nice stay, thin walls"
over all was a great stay. Only complaint was my location of the room and the events of the weekend. There was a softball tournament and some other things in the area so there were lots of kids running around the halls till late at night and then lots of door slamming early in the morning as everyone tried to rush out. Other than that the stay was a […] good one. I will be back in the future. LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu

"Very nice, comfortable and inexpensive hotel."
This was only a one night stay. The staff was pleasant and the room clean. The hot breakfast was a pleasant surprise. It lived up to it's billing. Hot and fresh and actually tasty. one caveat, if you are a non-smoker, do NOT book one of the smoking rooms. We did not do this but walked by the wing with the smoking rooms. That would have been an unpleasant […] stay. Fortunately, the smoking rooms were in a segregated wing. We just had to walk by to get to our room. All in all, a very nice place.

"Nice stay just picked a bad weekend"
Over all stay was great, loved the room/hotel. The AC/Heater in the room was a little off as it couldn't keep the temperature constant in the night. There was a cheerleading/dance competition that weekenend and they were spending the night at the hotel so there was a lot of noise in the hallways and breakfast was a little difficult to keep stocked but […] over all it was a good stay. Breakfast was a litlte slim pickings as there were a lot of people around. Over all good stay would reccomend going back. LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu

Can never go wrong at a Holiday Inn. Only problem was the breakfast was not as good as I had at other Holiday Inns. The desk clerk gave us a quiet area as we requested. The bed was glorious!

Our room was clean and comfortable & at a great rate for the area. Had a slight concern based on other reviews, but did not notice any musty smell in the hallways or in our room. Great water pressure in the shower. The staff was welcoming and helpful. Breakfast area was clean and comfortable, with many selections.

"Not up to the usual Holiday Inn Express standard"
I wonder whether reservations booked via Hotels.com are given rooms in the hotel "ghetto." While my room was smoke-free, the hallway in which it was located stank of stale and new smoke--evident at a distance, and that smokiness infiltrated my room. My bathroom was old with cracks and stains in the sink and bathtub, and a shower and drain that only […] worked with a bit of effort. The pillows seemed old, as the "soft" pillows were not very soft, but incredibly lumpy. As well, if I am remembering this properly, the location of the hotel does not match the location on the listing. The breakfast was not fully stocked per the usual standard either. A great disappointment as HIE experiences go. LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu

Stock Quotes
PennyTrader.com, announced today that it has initiated Profile Coverage of Marine Drive Mobile Corp. (OTCBB:MDMC) on its exclusive penny stock alert service.
Dallas 4/30/2012 01:33 PM GMT (TransWorldNews)
AMBS, STV, SANP included in our Midday Stock Report
GBEN, SQNM, SHZ included in our Midday Stock Report
PRMW, PTN, BONE included in our Midday Stock Report
Marine Drive Mobile Corp. (MDMC) is the brainchild of Colin MacDonald, their president and founder, and grew out of his vision to create a service that would become a disruptive force in the online coupon space.
MDMC's mission is to transform the online coupon space by giving businesses a totally free online advertising platform that makes creating and promoting daily deals as simple as sending an email.
MDMC's revenue model is built on transactions, not percentages of sales. Since they charge consumers a small transaction fee for each deal, the merchant pays NOTHING. Using this system, the merchant is able to collect and keep ALL the money from the purchase when the coupon is redeemed.
The beauty of this model is that it inherently fosters a win-win situation. Consumers are able to secure excellent deals with little cost passed onto the merchants (since they collect the full face value of the sale and not a share of revenue). This in turn enables merchants to offer bigger and better deals without sacrificing their profits.
Deals are always carefully targeted, ensuring customers receive the most relevant and valuable deals for their lifestyle demographic and location.

Talk about a fan-tastic experience! Kim Kardashian made one teen very, very happy on Thursday, Dec. 5, when she invited the girl and her friend to sit with her in the VIP section at fiance Kanye West's Yeezus concert in New Orleans.
The fan, whose Twitter handle is @MyleezaKardash, tweeted before the show that she was looking for Kardashian in the crowd. Seeing the tweet -- and noticing what a huge fan the girl is -- the 33-year-old reality star decided to reach out.
"I'm sending someone to go get you so you can come sit with me!!!" she wrote on Twitter. "Need your seat # & section. DM me ASAP!!!"
The rest of the incredible night has been documented on Myleeza's account, with lots of all-caps exclamations and emojis. "Story of how I met Queen Kim & King Yeezus coming NOW!" she wrote on Friday, Dec. 6.

Man dies in West Cumbria after car crash
Published at 10:27, Monday, 26 March 2012
A 20-year-old man has died from head injuries after he was hit by a car in Allonby.
The accident happened at 7.46pm on the B5300 – the main road through the village – last night.
It involved a Suzuki Swift driven by a 20-year-old man from Allonby and a pedestrian, also 20, and also from Allonby.
A police spokesman said the pedestrian had suffered head injuries which later proved fatal.
He died in hospital shortly afterwards.
Police have interviewed a 20-year-old man and are making further inquiries.
Nobody has been arrested in connection with the accident.
A force spokesman said ambulance crews took the pedestrian to West Cumberland Hospital in Whitehaven.
An Allonby woman, who did not wish to be identified, said that the community was "devastated".
The road was closed in both directions between the Wigton Road junction and the Moss Lane junction while emergency services attended the scene and reopened at 11.55pm.
Police are appealing to any witnesses or anybody with information to contact PC John Powell in the roads policing unit at Workington on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Sleep Deprivation. Sink or Float?
I felt a bit like this Lego this morning.....broken, crumpled, a limp mess on the floor :)
Why? Because....
Last night looked something like this:...... Somewhere between Ryder's two usual nightly feeds {usually around 1am & 4am}, he decided he wanted an extra random feed around 11pm {growth spurt maybe?} as well as a couple of dummy re-plugs {or re-pipes as Chris & I call them}. Ryder is only 10 weeks old so night feeds & night wakings is to be expected I know. However, earlier in the evening; Ella took forever to get to sleep at her usual bedtime of 7:15pm, which I found quite draining at the end of a long day. She then woke at around 10pm wanting me to tuck her back in & cuddle her back to sleep, then again at midnight; but crying with sore legs {growing pains maybe?} and insisting on an ice-pack {so Mummy was up again & getting sippy cups of water & injury icepacks and cuddling an upset 3 yr old...sshhing her back to a deep lull}.
I lost count of how many times I was awoken & up, out of bed. But the night felt long & interrupted & when Ella decided to greet the day with full speed at 5:34am this morning, I was not a happy chappy!
And really....last night was not the worst I've experienced. In fact, it was nothing compared to some! Hey, there were nights only 8 weeks ago when Ryder was teeny-tiny newborn that I was getting literally NO sleep each & every night.
And....although Ella is almost 4, we can count on 2 hands the amount of times she has gone to bed & not awoken us until a reasonable hour the next morning.......let's be honest....she's not a good sleeper, never has been and I doubt at this rate, she ever will be. And some nights, I'm ok with it. I'm used to it....I've accepted it....I even embrace it sometimes, as she snuggles into our bed all warm & cuddly, and I breathe in every ounce of her while she's still so little & dependent.
But today....today I was tired.
I was not myself. I was irritable & frustrated. I was impatient & annoyed. Basically, I had my cranky pants on bigtime! Sleep Deprivation, although a major part of parenting, is hard.....really hard. I will toot my own horn here a little in saying that I think I've dealt with severe sleep deprivation pretty well over the past 4 years. I've faced up after shocking nights of little sleep & still managed to go to work, cook, clean, play, smile, create, be a mum, be a wife.....oh yeah, this Mumma can rally when needed. But then there's days {like today} where all I want to do is, shut myself in a dark, quiet room and sleep! SLEEP ALL DAY!!!
But.....as most parents would know....that's not possible. So I attempted to rally.....
I succumbed to some morning Lego play with my little lady:
And, just like the scattered, messy Lego.....I pulled myself together & formed into something stronger & more structured! I faced up.
I went through the motions of feeding kids, cleaning up messes, changing nappies, showering, dressing etc. And hit the grocery store to re-store our empty pantry. On return, I again fed kids, cleaned up messes, changed nappies & fell back into my sleep-deprived-cranky-Mummy-mode. {NOT GOOD!}. I attempted a quick nanny nap in bed with Chris, while Ryder snoozed in his bassinet & Ella & Jayden played happily in the lounge room. But, Ryder awoke after a poor effort of a 20minute sleep :)
I was about to crack it!!!! BUT.....2 words went through my mind...... SINK or FLOAT. Sink or float? Two words my friend Kim said when she had her 2nd child & was experiencing those tough early days. Those 2 words have stuck with me ever since she said them....and I ask myself them regularly when faced with a prickly parenting moment. Sink or Float? I thought!
Bugger it.....I'm not sinking with this tired old shabby ship! Float baby float!!!!!
So, we baked:
Above: that moment made me smile. a moment I was grateful I decided to float.
We jumped on the trampoline, fixed the broken fence outside, played, flew remote helicopters, finally got around to uploading old photos, vacuumed, danced to "Party Rock Anthem" for the 9 millionth time this week & played hide & seek.
I enjoyed yet another coffee {oh, thank sweet caffeine...where would I be without you?!} and loved not having to cook when Chris offered to get us all sushi for dinner :)
It's 9pm now, I still feel tired.....so so tired. Still irritated & on edge. And I'm about to head off to bed. Who knows how much sleep we'll get tonight, and really it doesn't matter......because no matter how much I whine or complain about being tired.....it's not going to fix anything. I'm a Mum....and that means missing out on things...and making sacrifices. And sleep is something I've accepted is what I will loose a lot of for many years.It's all part of the deal I guess! Take the bad with the good and run!
But then I see the reasons why I don't get long restful nights of unbrokend sleep & I am happy:
These 2 balls of energy are worth all of the lost sleep in the world. I'll take no sleep, if it means having them in my life!
I planned to use tonight to get some preparations done for Ella's upcoming 4th birthday party and to upload a free printable print I have made for YOU all. But.....I'm changing my plan....I'm going to bed. All that can wait til tomorrow when my head is clearer & after I've hopefully had a bit more sleep :)
Tomorrow is a new day! A fresh start....a new outlook....another chance to:
Goodnight All....sweet dreams :)

RedHead® Premium Universal Gun Cleaning Kit
Sale price: Clearance price: Starting at: Sale starting at: Clearance starting at: Reg. price:
The RedHead® Premium Universal Gun Cleaning Kit includes two brass adapters, 9 phosphor bronze brushes, 8 cotton/wool mops, 2 swiveling 3-piece brass rods, a double-headed nylon brush, 5 nylon jags, 120 synthetic patches, 120 cotton patches, and a gun cloth packed in a handsome bamboo box.
Rated 2.7 out of 5 by 10

Although it looks wonderful, the kit is sub-par. The rods are cheap, and the small caliber brushes are way too tight.

Rated 1 out of 5 by DerekfromNY Poor Quality Product
I purchased this kit for my .22 and 12 gauge, thinking it would be a great deal compared to buying rods, jags, brushes, mops, etc. all seperately. Well, you get what you pay for. The box I got had scrapes and scuff marks on the bottom underneath the packaging when I got it home (may have been a returned and restocked item). When I took out the cleaning rod for .22's, I noticed the finish was tarnished already. I figured oh well, I don't care what it looks like, as long as it works. I barely got done cleaning my rifle and one of the rods broke right at the threading. Luckily, it broke on the backstroke so I didn't get a cleaning rod stuck in my rifle. Several of the brushes also had lint stuck in them from patches, as well as bent bristles. Obviously it was not a new kit. I will be returning this to Bass Pro today.

Rated 1 out of 5 by carlchien Mis-Sized
Purhcased this product for my .22 rifle today, unfortunely the smallest cotton mops could not fit into the .22 caliber, very disappointed. If you would like to have a nice looking wooden case, this is the one, if you would like to purchase a cleanning kit, you will probably need to go for something else.

I purchased this kit thinking it would be the answer for cleaning all the guns in my home. On the 1st use of the smaller rod to clean my 270 Remington the rod broke. Will be returniing it to the local BPS today. Hopefully I can find another brand with stronger rods.

OLEDs are coming. Not right away but yes, they are coming. Full color gamut, brightness to make the sun appear dim, blacks to make space look bright, incredibly fast response time, laughable power consumption, and you can roll it up and carry it under your arm to your next LAN party. In a few years... Here: http://www.geekiegadgets.com/2008/oled-ultra-thin-televison-monitor-by-sony/
I have no idea what the difference is between the lcd's.. so i picked all of them... ones gotta be right
I bought my three samsungs in february, and I bought an LG "IPS" panel last month to have a portrait screen for documents, etc. I usually upgrade about every year or so, depending on what new technologies are out.
A relatively old and cheap 22" LCD with a 5ms panel running at 1680x1050. A DGM L-2231WD to be exact. Want to get one of these sometime soon.
Samsung Syncmaster P2350 23in @ 1920x1080 and an LG Flatron W1952TQ 19in @ 1440x900 but TN I think had the LG since late 2008 and the Samsung since last october I think. I want to get an IPS, however getting a new GPU and an SSD are more important right now. My sister is after an IPS but her budget is 330 but willing to go as high as 450-500 if it's really good. she uses a crappy acer lcd and a crt.
You tried the wrong one then. There are a few models that really screwed up the control electronics. Really gotta check reviews on them. There are no 8 bit tn film panels. They are ALL 6 bit and use frc and dithering to achieve 16.7 million colors. I have. The positive benefits offered during gaming on a 120hz are offset by the better image quality offered by IPS in ALL situations. Benefit only during games, or benefit all the time? The choice was easy for me. Now that is something I can't wait till they perfect. It's gonna be awesome. Until then, I have my sights set on the HP LP2480zx for an upgrade when I pinch enough pennies. Another good article to read to learn about the different panel types: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/articles/panel_technologies.htm
IPS isn't really that bad when it comes to response time, IMO. Mine has a 5ms response yet I do not see any ghosting when i watch movies or play fast paced games.
forgot to answer the op, about a year ago. and once again thanks wile e. got it for $225 or so i believe.
Completely agreed! I've tried several, they all ghosted noticeably to me, but all my friends say I'm kind of a nut when it comes to noticing ghosting. IPS panels are just slower than TN, and I notice it. That is the truth. There are some really great TN monitors, and some really bad IPS monitors. I don't like any IPS monitor I've used because of the ghosting, but it probably wouldn't be a problem for most. Of course I don't really notice the color difference, and others do. It is all a personal preference thing, there is no perfect monitor.
And that's why I'm still on a Trinitron CRT. I notice both. I notice ghosting on anything but the fastest TNs and the color is simply wrong in everything except the finest and far more expensive IPS and VA. I'm talking about $400+ panels and like I don't want to pay that much for something that would be a sidegrade at best. I'm waiting for OLEDs to become affordable and also hoping that manufacturers start making them well once they figure out how to fix the Blue OLEDS. Current OLEDs are extremely oversaturated, specially the blue range, so that they last longer with acceptable contrast and colors. Since I also use the monitor for work, color accuracy is a must, so no no. And speaking of blue OLEDs, am I the only one in the world who has had the idea of putting 2 blue subpixels? I mean come on, I've read a lot about OLEDs and I've seen many techniques they are using to avoid the problem, but not once did I read about putting 2 alternating blue subpixels... I'm missing something here?
2 different blue subpixels work OK in theory but are harder to drive properly to the screen. They'll get it right, give them time.
Can you explain that? Why would it be hard it's just one more matrix and a mux to change between them. They could even make it so that it uses a different one each time the monitor is powered on, nothing more, as simple as that.
An Acer 22" TN, Sceptre 24" TN, Samsung 275T S-PVA (awesome monitor for IQ, terrible for gaming), and four Dell P1130 CRTs (awesome for gaming [100Hz @ 1600x1200], age-diminished IQ). Have had the Acer and Scepter for maybe five years, got the Samsung and CRTs around two years ago IIRC.
i got a Philips 221EL WLED (White LED) i bought max half a year ago or something, and i luv it, it only uses about 19,3 watt when it's running and it's 5ms no problem for me in all my games ^^ oh and i use the cool/blue colour function or else i get a headache easly using anyway screen
I use a NEC Multisync EA231wmi Rumor has it, it uses the same panel as some of Dell's (Ultrasharp U2410) & HP's (LP2475w) higher end range of monitors around the £400+ mark.

This paper investigates the relationship and potential synergies between monitoring systems for carbon stock changes and multiple benefits from REDD+.
Resource Type: ReportsThis innovative tool provides users with initial estimates of embedded carbon within an identified spatial area such as a protected area or any user-defined polygon drawn on a global map.
Resource Type: Tools / ApplicationsThis brief note suggests that Laurance and Venter's proposal to replace developing countries' role in the process of monitoring forest carbon stocks for the REDD programme may not be in the long-term interests of promoting reduced emissions from forests in developing countries.
Resource Type: Journal PapersCoral reefs are a critical global resource, both biologically, and in socio-economic terms. Coral reefs are also highly sensitive to climatic influences and appear to number among the most sensitive of all ecosystems to temperature changes, exhibiting the phenomenon known as coral bleaching when stressed by higher than normal sea temperatures.

Good, but duplicatedPros: Very good software which appears to have everything you need for serious genealogy work. Cons: No user manual. Just the standard Help function. Other Thoughts: "Family Tree Heritage Deluxe 7" by Individual Software and "Lineage Family Tree" by Encore Software appear to be the same program under two different names. I bought both and the boxes contained the same descriptions with identical wording, had identical screen shots and used the same examples. Even the example reports had the same names and same photos. The only difference was price. Did you find this review helpful? |

This may be a dumb question but how do I know if I have a 20 pole alternator or not? I am looking to replace my Tach that has malfuntioned with the Teleflex Eclipse Tachometer.I noticed the answer to someone elses question that this tach will not work with a 20 pole alternator. The boat is a 1987 Seaswirl with a 5.0 ford engine.Asked on 8/9/2012 by Warren from Clovis, CA.1 answer
On the back of your existing tachometer there is a dial that has to be set ot the right setting according to the pole of the alternator. If you have a 20 pole alternator that dial would either be set to 10 or 20. If it is set to any other number you do not have a 20 pole alternator. Usually only Force outboards run on 20 pole alternators.Answered on 11/13/2012 by Justin M. from Overton's

Yes it will. Teleflex tachometers will not work on 20 pole alternators like U.S. Marine and Force engines. Those are the only ones it will not work with.Answered on 9/21/2009 by JUSTIN from OVERTONS TECHNICIAN
Can I use this tachometer with a outboard motor?
Do all the gauges come with the nessary hard ware, fittings etc?Asked on 5/21/2009 by Anonymous1 answer
This tachometer is great to use on an outboard motor as well as an inboard/outdrive motor as long as your motor does not use a 20 pole alternator. 20 pole alternators are commonly seen on Force outboards, and in the case where a 20 pole alternator is present this tachometer will not work.Answered on 1/27/2011 by Justin from Overton's
