Should States Be Able to Collect Sales Tax on Goods Sold Online? >
Congress Must Act to Modernize Sales Tax Policy
Online-only retailers are exempt from collecting sales tax at every point of purchase
August 8, 2012
Main Street retailers, the backbone of America, stimulate local economies, build communities, and provide good, stable, local jobs. However, these jobs are being threatened by online retailers fighting to preserve an unfair price advantage of as much as 10 percent over brick and mortar retailers.
Local retailers are part of the place we call home. They play an integral part of many civic and charitable organizations and maintain economic stability and our overall quality of life. Online-only retailers have little need or incentive to invest in our cities and towns.
In today's marketplace, the shape of commerce is changing, but the rules remain stuck in 1992—well before the era of the iPad, smart phones, and even home Internet access. Online-only retailers are exempt from collecting sales tax at every point of purchase.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the economy.]
Some argue that online retailing is still a nascent industry, but, in fact, this year alone online sales are expected to grow four times faster than brick and mortar sales. As online retailers exploit an unfair sales tax loophole, communities across the country are hurting and jobs continue to be at risk.
The National Conference of State Legislatures estimates that states will lose $23 billion in uncollected taxes from online sales this year due to the Internet sales tax loophole. As legislators grapple to fill budget gaps, this revenue from taxes that are due would go a long way toward adequately funding essential public services: paving roads, keeping police and firefighters on the job, and providing our children with a quality education.
[Read the U.S. News debate: Is a Flat Tax a Good Idea?]
The Marketplace Fairness Act and the Marketplace Equity Act are two bipartisan bills under consideration in Congress that would help fix this problem. Both proposals simplify the collection process to benefit consumers, retailers and states, while providing an exemption for small online businesses. It's a win-win situation, unless you're a larger online retailer that wants to keep the competitive advantage this tax loophole provides.
The status quo is no longer conducive to a thriving 21st century retail marketplace. A sale is a sale no matter if it happens through the click of a mouse or at a cash register. Congress must act now to modernize our sales tax collection policy to keep pace with the world we live in today. The cost to consumers, states, and Main Street businesses is too great for us to ignore any longer.

Posted: 3:43 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 5, 2013
By Denise G. Callahan
A bar fight and two domestic violence incidents have resulted in felonious assault charges against three men from Butler and Warren Counties.
Joshua Donahue allegedly brandished a knife after an altercation with another man outside the Lucky Dog Grille in Mason back in December. The 35-year-old West Chester Twp. man was at the establishment with a female companion and the other man was accompanied by a woman who knew Donahue's friend, according to Prosecutor David Fornshell.
The victim apparently made a comment to his companion and Donahue thought the comment was directed at him and he pulled a knife, Fornshell said. One of the women got in between the men and prevented anyone from getting hurt. When Donahue and his female friend got in their car, Donahue allegedly then pulled a gun out and pointed it at the victim.
Fornshell said a Mason police officer happened to be in the area conducting a traffic stop in an adjacent parking lot.
"People were yelling over to him 'he's got a gun, he's got a gun'," Fornshell said.
Donahue is facing one felonious assault charge, two charges each of carrying a concealed weapon and improper handling of a firearm and tampering with evidence. Donahue allegedly asked his female friend to hide the gun in her purse after the officer stopped them at the Mason Pub.
A second incident involving a knife happened in Carlisle New Year's Day when Roger Allen, Jr. allegedly stabbed his daughter's boyfriend in the arm. The victim was holding his baby when he got into an argument with his girlfriend's father. The 48-year-old grandfather allegedly knocked the baby out of the father's arms and then stabbed the boyfriend in the arm.
Allen was charged with two second-degree felony counts of felonious assault.
Meanwhile, Stuart Sparks got into an altercation with his girlfriend on Jan. 2, and broke her hip and femur in Deerfield Twp.
"He gave her a pretty significant shove across the room, from one room to the next room," Fornshell said. "It lifted her off the ground and then she landed on the ground."
The 59-year-old was charged with one count each of felonious assault and domestic violence.

About Last Night: Warriors Come Out to Play
By Spike Friedman atIn case you were busy calling out traders on Twitter, here's what you missed in sports on Tuesday:
- The Golden State Warriors exploded for 42 points in the fourth quarter as they overturned a 27-point deficit to beat the Toronto Raptors 112-103. Raptors head coach Dwane Casey was incensed after the game, saying, "The Warriors, they're who we thought they were. That's why we took the damn court." Casey then pounded the podium and yelled, "Now if you want to crown them, then crown their ass! But they are who we thought they were! And we let them off the hook." When told of Casey's comments, Warriors point guard Stephen Curry frowned and asked, "This doesn't mean I'm Rex Grossman, does it? Because I really don't want to be Rex Grossman."
- In the marquee move of a busy day of major league hot stove action, sources are reporting that outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury will leave the world champion Boston Red Sox, having agreed to terms on a seven-year deal with the New York Yankees. When asked if he saw himself as following in the footsteps of former Red Sox outfielder Johnny Damon, who also moved to the Yankees after winning a World Series title, Ellsbury's eyes darted as he said, "What? No. Who? Who's Johnny Damon? You're crazy." When asked if he was Johnny Damon posing as Jacoby Ellsbury, Ellsbury glared and said, "Why can't you just be cool? If you were cool you wouldn't ask these questions." Ellsbury was then asked if he had ever existed, or if he had always been a clever ruse designed to extend Johnny Damon's career, to which Ellsbury replied, "Seriously, why won't you just let me have this? Please just let me have this."

They will be connected by ethernet. I never have any experience in running gaussian with Linux cluster. So my questions are the following: 1. Can G03 be run parallel in the above configuration? 2. Do you need to have Linda for running parallel in the above configuration? 3. Do you recommend any other processor? 4. Which brand of Linux is good for running G03 parallel? 5. Pals sharer your experience with running G03 parallel in Linux cluster (like tricks, problems, failure etc).

When I first took the bed out of the packages I was a little overwhelmed with the amount of work it would take to put it together. I had all the parts and it went together without too much trouble. The finished product made all the work worthwhile. I love this bed and the construction of the part of the bed that the mattress lays on is something I haven't seen before but it makes the bed very comfortable. The bed looks beautiful and is strong and comfortable. I would definately recommend it.
Some say there is nothing better than a good night sleep. I agree, with this bed it is also true. Not only that the price is right, the quality is high. I am really pleased with this purchase. I am now looking for some night stands for it.
I am a regular buyer on O but buying a bed unseen is difficult. Also, there were no reviews at the time of purchase. From the one pic, I new it was the style of platform bed I was looking for and a great price. I was concerned it may look cheap in person. What I can say is that the bed is amazing. I have been looking at similar beds at 3x the price and this bed really just as good. It is solid and well made and the faux leather is really nice. Easy to put together as well. The headboard looks a bit different from the picture. It is tufted but a little simplier than the pic. Very happy I took the chance. A very beatiful modern bed.
This platform bed is not only beautiful and elegant but extremely comfortable. I am used to beds in which I cannot have a good night sleep so I wanted a change in comfort and design also. This white bed looked so beautiful and inviting I had to order it. The size is just perfect and the detailed headboard with the small decorative addition brings the unique look and sophistication into my bedroom. Since I have my new bed I sleep like a baby without back pains or discomfort. Thank you.
My new bed is amazing. The decorative elements, the great and solid construction and the fresh and beautiful color brings this bed to an upper style level. Near the elegant and sophisticated look this bed is highly comfortable. I adore the unique design headboard with the tufted look, which brings out the whole look. I never had light color beds, but this design looks so amazing only in this state. Love it.
I ordered this bed thinking that for the price it would be OK however I really love it, I put it together myself and needed a little help to tighten the screws. It looks expensive and it is pretty, I would recommend it
I really enjoy this bed. I've had this for nearly a month and it seems pretty sturdy so far. I would love this bed more if it looked more like the image from the site (headboard is not as it appears online), which is a huge part of why I bought it. It is nice looking, but not elegant. I do appreciate how comfortable it is, though! Although I am not completely in love with this bed, I am satisfied with how much I paid. It's a great bed, just not perfect in my eyes. Assembly was simple. Instructions were not included in my package, but was able to figure it out pretty quickly. Putting it together will require at least two people.
If it's out of stock sign up for email notifications - two days after I did, the item came back in stock! The bed was pretty easy to assemble even for someone who's not a handyman, maybe slightly more complicated than an *** bed. Strangely there are no pre-drilled holes for the feet and two cross support pieces so you will need a drill for that. I left the two cross support pieces out because I figured they didn't add any structural value - the slats are pretty extensive. Now that it's built it seems quite sturdy and it looks great - fit and finish is superb.
Overstock has excellent customer service. I would most definitely purchase from them again. I am very happy with this purchase. It is a great bed, excellent quality for the price. Overstock customer service is excellent. Don't hesitate, buy this bed!
despite delivery issue, the bed looks amazing. having a power drill makes the assembly much easier.

Goat knocks over TV reporter
She took the whole thing in stride and laughed
PALMETTO, Fla. (CNN/WWSB) - Florida reporter Linda Carson learned a valuable lesson this week: never turn your back on a goat.
Carson was at the Manatee County Fair in Palmetto working on a story about kids that raise goats when one of the animals charged her and knocked her to the ground.
Thankfully Carson took the whole thing in stride and laughed it off.
She says it didn't even hurt.

Ibn Al-Haitham the Muslim Physicist
Abu Ali Al-Hasan Ibn Al-Hasan (or al-Husain) Ibn Al-Haitham. Born c. 965 in Basra (Iraq), he flourished in Egypt under Al-Hakim (996 to 1020) and died in Cairo in 1039 or soon after.
He was arguably the greatest Muslim physicist and one of the greatest students of optics of all time. He was also an astronomer, a mathematician, a physician, and he wrote commentaries on Aristotle and Galen. He wrote about 70 manuscripts and he had propounded the famous Snell's law about 600 years before Snell.
The Latin translation of his main work, the Optics (kitab al-manazir), exerted a great influence upon Western science (R. Bacon; Kepler). It showed a great progress in the experimental method. Research in catoptrics: spherical and parabolic mirrors, spherical aberration; in dioptrics: the ratio between the angle and incidence and refraction does not remain constant; magnifying power of a lens. study of atmospheric refraction. The twilight only c eases or begins when the sun is 19o below the horizon; attempt to measure the height of the atmosphere on that basis. Better description of the eye, and better understanding of vision, though ibn al-haitham considered the lens as the sensitive part; the rays originate in the object seen, not in the eye. Attempt to explain binocular vision. Correct explanation of the apparent increase in the size the sun and the moon when near the horizon. earliest use of the camera obscura.
The catoptrics contain the following problem, known as Alhazen's problem: from two points of the plane of a circle to draw lines meeting at point of the circumference and making equal angles with the normal at that point. It leads to an equation of the fourth degree. Alhazen solved it by the aid of an hyberpola intersecting a circle. He also solved the so-called al-Mahani's (cubic) equation (q. v., second half of the ninth century) in a similar (Archimedian) manner.

Press Release 12 November 2007
Rome, 12 November 2007 - The President of the European Commission José Manuel Barroso said today that the problematic relationship between energy consumption and the environment is "the greatest challenge of our generation."
"If I am asked today what is the most important issue for global security and development, the issue with the highest potential for solutions but also for serious problems if we do not act in the right way, it is energy and climate change," Barroso said during the 20th World Energy Congress. "History will judge us on our ability to manage this challenge and mitigate the worst effects of climate change."
The Commission president described the current relationship between the world's energy needs and the environment as "difficult and untenable." He reiterated the commitments already taken by the European Union and outlined the agenda for the coming months, including those in Bali and Copenhagen where countries will gather to discuss the post-Kyoto future.
"Later this month we will adopt a European Strategic Energy Technology Plan to speed up innovation of energy technologies by pushing European industry to turn the threats of climate change and security of supply into opportunities to increase its competitiveness. As transport continues to be a major contributor to CO2 emissions, the European Commission will also present legislative proposals in December to cut emissions in the automobile sector to 120 grams per kilometre by 2012."
"The 13th UN Climate Change Conference in Bali next month is crucially important for tackling climate change, but it is also important to be realistic. If successful, it will only mark the start of a process, not its culmination. For the EU, it is vital that the world's leaders use Bali to launch serious negotiations on a comprehensive, international, post-2012 agreement on fighting climate change. If negotiations are launched with a view to reaching agreement by 2009 in Copenhagen, this will leave enough time for the new agreement to be ratified and in force before the end of 2012. A tight, but very necessary timetable."
Barroso recalled the key elements on which any agreements should be based:
"Consensus on a shared vision to limit global warming to 2°C above pre-industrial levels, which requires global emissions to be reduced to at least 50% below 1990 levels by 2050;"
"Deeper absolute emission reduction commitments by developed countries. That means a 30% reduction for developed countries by 2020; "
"New, flexible and fair commitments from developing countries, to reduce the greenhouse gas emission intensity of their economic development. We do want to cooperate with developing countries to strengthen their contribution to the global reduction effort. By taking bold action now, they can enjoy a win-win situation, because sensible policies to fight climate change also have real non-climate benefits;"
"Extending the carbon market, and including innovative and enhanced flexible mechanisms. This market promises to deliver many of the incentives needed to shift investment into low carbon options, and to help scale up financing of action in developing countries to bring down the emissions intensity of their growth. We need to expand this market, and the launch of the International Carbon Action Partnership in Lisbon two weeks ago, by a coalition of European countries, US states, Canadian provinces, New Zealand and Norway, is a strong step forward in that direction;"
"Increasing cooperation on technology research, development, deployment and transfer. Clearly, extending carbon markets will not be sufficient to bring about the transition to low carbon economies that we have in mind. So we will need additional efforts to bring down the cost of strategically important technologies, and to overcome barriers to market deployment, for example by agreeing on efficiency standards for a range of applications;"
"Appropriate adaptation measures to deal with the effects of climate change. Least developed countries, that are most vulnerable to climate change, need our support in coping with the effects of climate change. But ultimately, all countries need to adapt to unavoidable climate change;"
"Addressing emissions from international aviation and maritime transportation. Bringing this sector into the picture is important since it is showing rapidly increasing emissions; and finally action to address deforestation. This is an issue that attracts keen interest from developing countries, as a way of contributing to a post-2012 agreement".
Barroso, in the press conference that followed the speech, also addressed the question of increased energy consumption by China and India, saying he wants the European Union to see the emerging giants as an opportunity and not a challenge.
"We do not expect countries like India and China to take the same commitments as we do. But we do expect them to decouple energy consumption and growth, in line with our common but differentiated responsibilities. But we do want to cooperate with developing countries to strengthen their contribution to the global reduction effort. By taking bold action now, they can enjoy a win-win situation, because sensible policies to fight climate change also have real non-climate benefits."

HE was man full of freedom. He loved everything from the people of the streets to the gypsies,bullfighters and even young rowdies.He himself was like that. The man talked about is - Francisce Jose de Goya y Lucientes. He was born of a peasant family in 1746. He lived in a violent period of the European history.He was strong and robust. At the age of 14 he was sent to town of Saragossa to study under an artist named Jose Luzan Martinez. He became involved in a riot and was forced to leave the town.He fled to Madrid. That time he was only 19. Somehow or the other he got mixed up in a brawl. It became furious and Goya had to flee with a knife through his back. He was friendly to bullfighters and some of them took him out of the city and to Rome.After 2 years he returned to Spain to take up painting again.At the age of 29 he married the sister of Francisco Bayeau,his friend.The couple moved to Madrid. Goya drew so well that he,his work were in great demand. At the age of 40 he became the President of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts.He also became the court painter of King Charles IV. Goya did a series of etchings that time called 'The Caprices'in which fun was made of everything from the courtiers to the army and clergy.The pictures were savagely drawn,the Spanish Church wanted to quetion him.But King Charles IV protected Goya by saying that the paintings were drwan at his order and took over the etchings. At the time of the French revolution Goya did a series of etchings called 'The Disasters of War' which shows the sufferings of the civilians. He made the horror of war real. He spent his last years in Bordeaux. He continued to paint there broadly, boldly and often wildly, with any instrument that was near him. He died at the age of 83. Francisco Goya was a man whom nothing could stop, from painting the subjects he wanted to paint in the way he saw them. Agnibha Sen Std.6 E Bhavan's Gangabux Kanoria Vidya Mandir Kolkata, West Bengal

text: My first doctors appointment, checking in appointment, and everything else with the exception of the birth and the scans, I was alone. I remember weeping, hidden in the toilets of Mothercare, alone, surrounded by couples and families, exuberant grandparents grabbing and exclaiming at blankets, tiny pairs of socks. I felt her move inside me and pushed a trolley around alone, gathering moses basket, blankets, sheets, steriliser, baby monitor and all the other essentials. I'd gotten the grant I'd been forced to use to buy them the previous day as I'd been made redundant in my 13th week and was struggling financially by this stage.

OAKLAND -- Stephen Vogt got the pie in the face and the Gatorade bath, but in the wake of his greatest baseball moment ever, he was quick to remind who the real hero was.
"Tonight was Sonny Gray Night -- that's flat-out," said the 28-year-old rookie catcher. "That's flat-out. Matching Justin Verlander pitch for pitch and zero for zero. He didn't rattle, he kept his composure the whole game. It was just outstanding."
But as a second feature, Vogt was pretty outstanding himself. He called nine shutout innings, eight of them by Gray. He made a critical strikeout/throw out play that ended a Detroit scoring threat in the fifth inning. He had an epic 10-pitch duel with Verlander in the seventh, and even though he struck out, it helped get the Detroit right-hander out of the game at the end of that inning.
Oh, and there was that bases-loaded hit in the bottom of the ninth that won the game for the A's 1-0, a shot to left-center on a 1-1 pitch that turned the Coliseum into pure bedlam.
Vogt couldn't remember what kind of pitch it was or its location.
"I was just looking for something over the plate and try to hit it back up the middle," he said.
What was going through his mind as he was running up the first baseline?
"Everything," he said. "It's the moment every kid dreams of. I remember playing in my front yard with nobody else, imagining getting a walk-off hit in a playoff game or a World Series. It's just everything you can dream of and more. I'm so happy right now."
Vogt said he couldn't even feel his body as he rounded the bag and was mobbed by his teammate between first and second base.
"I didn't feel anything," he said. "There was so much emotion and so much feeling, I kind of blacked out for a second."
The A's, to a man, will tell you the outcome couldn't happen to a better guy.
"What a great story -- a 28-year-old rookie, more than put in his time and paid his dues," said reliever Sean Doolittle. "For him to have that night on both sides -- offensively and defensively -- that was awesome."
Working in tandem with Gray may have been the most crucial part, if not as dramatic as his Verlander at-bat or his game-winner.
"We came to Sacramento together and threw all year there, so it was nice to have him back there tonight," said Gray. "Stephen just knows my strengths and those are the fingers he puts down."
They teamed up beautifully in the fifth to escape the toughest jam they faced all night -- first and third with one out and Austin Jackson at the plate. Jose Iglesias, the runner at first, took off on a 3-2 pitch to Austin Jackson. Jackson swung and missed, and Vogt fired a missile to second to easily nail Iglesias to end the inning.
"Sonny's always quick to the plate," Vogt said. "That's just another thing I love about him as a pitcher. He's going to give you a chance to throw a guy out. I had a good feeling (Iglesias) was running there 3-2, and fortunately he made such a great pitch. That was such a huge momentum swing for us just to get us out of that first-and-third one-out jam."
And then there was the confrontation in the seventh with Verlander, one for the ages that almost was separate from the game.
Vogt fouled off the first pitches he saw, took a ball, fouled off another, took a second ball, then fouled one more time before finally taking a mighty swing and striking out.
"It was awesome," Vogt said. "It was a great at-bat. He made such good pitches and I fouled off a few pitches. I expanded the zone a little bit at times, but I wasn't going to go down looking."
Verlander seemed to enjoy it, too, and said so afterward.
"It was one heck of a battle," said the Detroit standout, who threw the last 10 of his 117 pitches to Vogt. "I felt I like I was giving him everything I had and he was putting good swings on everything."

"Hinta ja laatu kohdallaan"Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu helmi 26, 2013
Erinomainen sijainti liikkua junalla ja metrolla. Helppo ja halpa matka hotellin ja JFK:n välillä (n.45 min, 7,5 USD). Manhattanille n. 10-15 min metromatka. Hotelli siisti, huoneet tilavat ja hyvin toimiva siivous. Aamiainen perusamerikkalainen eli kaikenlaista pullaa löytyy. Bonuksena aamiaishuoneen kuumahuoma-automaatti, joka on käytössä pitkin päivää. Ruuhka-aikoina liikeenteen melua. Viereissä Mobil-huoltamo, jossa pieni sekatavaramarket. Seuraavassa korttelissa viinakauppa, pesula ja Deli. Lähin metroasema Queensboro Plaza (200m).
"loistava sijainti, ei ötököitä"Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu helmi 26, 2013
Vastasi odotuksia. Hyvä hinta- laatu suhde. sijainti oli aivan loistava ja mikä itselle tärkeintä huone siisti eikä torakoita tai muita vierailijoita ilmaantunut. Toki huone oli erittäin pieni ja remontti vähän sinne päin tehty, mutta oikein siisti ja tyylikäs. Remontti oli vielä kesken, mutta huoneeseemme 20. kerrokseen siitä ei ainakaan häiriötä aiheutunut. Ystävällinen henkilö kunta.

"Neaardenr Madison Square G"Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu helmi 25, 2013
We enjoyed our visit in New York and stay in this hotel. Everything worked well, the staff was very friendly. We had 2 queen size bed and the room for four was big enough to overnight, but if you are going to spend more time in hotel room, four might be too many. This hotel is perfectly located when visiting MSG. We also walked to Empire State building and to Rockefeller center, but some could find this walking distance too long. There is a very delicious breakfast available next to lobby at $18, which we enjoyed both mornings. The hotel price was reasonable.

"Good hotel overall"
Very good hotel with nice sized rooms except the bathrooms are small. Not the best in NYC but decent for the price.Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"Hidden Costs"
Our stay did not start well. After receiving our room assignment we found that we were given a a room with 2 queen sized beds. We specifically asked for a King size room and our confirmation stated a king sized bed. After calling the front desk to correct the situation, we were told that they did not guarantee the bedding for reservations made through […] Expedia (i.e. Hotels.com). In order to get a king sized bed we would needed to upgrade at our expense. Other than that, the hotel is in a good location and the room was comfortable, though could use some maintenance. On a good note, Hotel.com did reimburse us for the difference we were charged. LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu

Honestly, I was attracted to the price first. I couldn't understand why the price was remarkably lower, yet the reviews were so high. What can I say, I was impressed and would recommend it as a hidden value in a city crowded with choices.Aito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
"great price; good location; great service"
The staff were very nice and accomodating. Every time in and out of the building we were asked if we needed anything (directions, assistance, etc.). The bulding is a little older, the lobby smaller than most, but our room was clean and reasonably up to date. The kitchenette was a nice add as it let bring leftovers back with us. Location is Murray Hill […] -- you are a bit removed from Times Square, Midtown and the Village, but then again everything is walkable from the building. Neighborhood felt very safe.

I thought the staff was very good. I think the hotel is just so-so. It is dated and old. It was not worth the money I paid for it. My room was dark.

Myself and four others went for an overnight stay in New York....We got one of the suites and it was large and had a kitchenette!.It included 2 queen beds and the sofa pulled into a bed. It was like a miniature apartment. While probably not quite as luxurious as the Westin or other pricier hotel chains, however, it definitely has more space and the […] space is separated well, if you need some privacy.

"A Hidden Gem in NYC"
My wife and I stayed at the Affinia Dumont in July 2013. Tucked away in the quiet area of Murray Hill, this hotel is definitely a hidden gem and one of my favorites in NYC. Although it lacks a flashy lobby, it makes up for it with some of the most spacious hotel rooms that I have seen in NYC. We had a corner room with large windows and a pretty good […] view of midtown east. An important detail worth mentioning is that the rooms at Affinia Dumont have kitchens (which are stocked with pots/pans and dinnerware). This is great for extended stays in NYC. I have absolutely no complaints about the décor or furniture in the rooms. Our room came with a comfy bed, sofa, large desk and accompanying office chair. With regards to some of the minor downsides of this hotel: the wifi was only free in the lobby and not in the rooms. Furthermore, due to the number of floors in the building, you can expect a long wait for an elevator during peak hours. The lobby is small and its furniture is bland. Location: In my opinion, the hotel's Murray Hill location is perfect. It's just a stone's throw away from the 6 train subway line and a reasonable distance from most of the major attractions in NYC. 3rd avenue is just down the street and is a great place to go bar hopping or catch a bite to eat. With regards to the hotel staff, they were courteous, helpful and engaging. Overall, Affinia Dumont is a great hotel and I would definitely stay there again.

"best hotel in Manhattan"
I love this hotel and have stayed here at least a dozen times. The rooms are spacious by NY standards modern and clean. There is a full kitchen which I have never used but I boiled water for tea rather than use the who knows how clean is coffee pot and of course the fridge. Duane Reade across the street or Murray Hill Market on corner has all you need […] for snacks; water, soda, yogurts, cheese even if you want fixings for your own lunch....just saying. The location is perfect...not too far east or west and the the neighborhood is quiet without much of a scene. It is noisy on 34 St. but the a/c blocked it out. For those who like to run or walk, its minutes to the East River where one can easily get 3-6 miles in without much to deal with. The rates change based on the time of year and this time I got a true bargain at less than $200 a night. Love this hotel! LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu

"Great place to stay"
The hotel was very nice. I was impressed by its room features. The room I stayed in had nice little kitchen. There was a small stove, a sink, and a full size refrigerator. The rest room was nice, but I definitely would of like it to be a bit larger. It wasn't a big deal but the restroom had a loose tile which is right where you would stand in front […] of the sink. It was annoying at times but I would understand why it was loose, I figured it was because that's where people stepped on most of the time when they were in there. The bed was great,comfortable but the sheets weren't soft. It felt like it was ironed with heavy starch. I definitely wasn't impressed with the air conditioning also. Most of the time the room was either too cold or too warm. It never really maintained a comfortable room temperature. I really didn't mind it being too cold since I was cuddling with my girlfriend when we slept. It also felt dry in the room, so that made it more uncomfortable. The staff was definitely very friendly and courteous. The were able to accommodate my every request so that definitely made me happy. LisätietojaAito Expedian asiakkaan arvostelu

The Affinia Dumont is close to the Lexington Avenue Subway line and is within walking distance of most of the city from Noho to Central Park to the theater district, etc. The desk staff is most helpful.

Equine Behavior
A Guide for Veterinarians and Equine Scientists
Edited by- Paul McGreevy
Equine Behavior: A Guide for Veterinarians and Equine Scientists is written for all those who really want to know what makes horses tick. Behavioral problems in the stable and under saddle are of concern to equine veterinarians worldwide because they lead to welfare issues, abuse and ultimately wastage. Equine veterinarians, trainers and handlers must be aware of each horses behavior as a first step in detection of problems, whether they are clinical maladies or training issues. As they constantly study their horses responses to their environments they are all, in effect, students of horse behavior.
Drawing on over 1,000 references, Equine Behavior explores the subject from first principles by considering the behavior of free-ranging horses and considering ways in which management and training influences the responses of domestic horses. All too often veterinarians feel that management of the mental health of equine patients is beyond their expertise. This book addresses many important gaps to enable practitioners to understand how horses can learn to perform unwelcome behaviors and how to change those behaviors where appropriate.
The new edition builds on the success of its pioneering predecessor and presents a thorough revision of all chapters to reflect the latest developments in this dynamic field. The chapter on equitation science has been expanded and there have been major revisions to the sections on stereotypic behavior, cognition studies, nutrition and housing. The book remains a must-have purchase for all veterinarians who deal with horses, for equine scientists, trainers and everybody with an interest in the subject.

-- ago we heard for the Obama team -- things fair and balanced Sean Spicer Republican National Committee is the communications director Sean how are you -- good morning.
I feel great good morning happy election we'll tell you about her and happy election today's -- -- as well we just heard from the democratic counterpart you.
Who says look man we inherited a mess we've done our best -- trying clean it up the job -- not done do not turn back.
And your -- -- well there's one.
There's a couple problems with that argument that Brad made one -- The unemployment rate is higher than when Barack Obama came in office the debt is substantially higher he came in it was ten trillion it's now sixteen -- -- every other economic.
All it -- that thought we would it take you live now.
To Janesville Wisconsin and that is the Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan.
There with I believe that was his wife screen left a moment ago -- these are live pictures coming to us now and we'll continue our conversation here -- -- -- If our viewers were with us some 45 minutes ago you saw Mitt Romney and -- Romney cast their ballot in Belmont Massachusetts and now we see.
Paul Ryan back home southern part of the stayed in Wisconsin a guy -- represented a district now for fourteen years.
Taking his children and I and his wife Janet to the voting place with him and she's gonna -- -- course but the kids have been.
You know sort of a big part of all of this process some -- cute pictures that come out of them it's clearly enjoying at all and -- so many people across the country.
Believe in bringing your kids with you when you go to vote and making them part of the process so that they will grow up seeing that happen and that they will want to be active -- parts of the process themselves and it was literally there in the polling place it was.
Tradition for my mother in me head to reelect every time you walk up -- -- drive across new broad and cast our ballot then we would walk back and here you are still Donald process and that -- right so Sean you're saying what is your best argument for how Mitt Romney wins today.
I'd be glad to be interrupted by conch and Ryan any -- in the weeks and it was great show that but but Barack Obama.
When he came in office he said that he -- gonna fix the problems that he thinks he understood the breath about.
And he had the solutions form the unemployment rate is higher the -- is higher.
Energy prices are higher education costs are higher so that argument to Brad -- frankly doesn't hold water.
But second of all listen to what governor Romney's been saying on the trail he's not -- -- complain about what he's gonna inherit and frankly it's going to be worse.
Than what President Obama inherited he's going to end day one get the job done -- fix the problems.
And that's what America's looking for right now is someone he's gonna tackle the people's problems that this country faces with real solutions -- you so if their argument is -- an 800000 jobs at first month they took office and on it went from there.
But as you look at the map today and -- all the -- that you've crunched.
What concerns you.
Nothing actually I feel I actually feel very good today we've got the issues on our side people like.
And in polling poll after poll they talk about.
How governor Romney's leadership and economic solution to what this country's looking for we've got the intensity of our base -- Mean when you talk about the people out there on the ground they are fired up much more sand so than the other side.
There will make it more voter contacts we've ever made history that of our side.
And then if you look at again go to the polling and look at the independence the independence from anywhere from from 910% all the way -- to twenty and every one of these battleground states.
It breaking for governor Romney and that's a very positive sign so I -- -- Cerrato have a very good night.
You know it is like -- 2008 the present Obama beat John McCain by eight points among independents and so on this -- we've seen this week in fact is governor Romney up fifteen points in that category this is what we're hearing that when polling places in the battleground states now.
Not outside the battleground states but in places like Ohio and especially New Hampshire they're talking about record turnout numbers at some of these polling stations already.
Now now there's a strong turnout does that help you -- does that hurt you.
Well obviously depends on who's turning out but as I -- mentioned before.
We've had probably the most robust.
An enthusiastic and energetic get out the vote effort in history the Republican side so we talk about the number of volunteers in voter contacts that we -- If we're doing our job in getting these folks out.
Then absolutely this is a good -- the the Obama side did a really good job of touting their early -- numbers but they cannibalize.
What what's referred -- as a high propensity voters those people who normally would have voted on Election Day Republican voters tend to vote on Election Day to begin with.
For our early vote numbers came from low propensity money we spend our time and effort getting those folks who are less likely to vote really out there to vote.
And knowing that our our high propensity voters would do what they always do we get out there on Election Day says there are guys this is a great scene for us by Sean thank you we -- your democratic counterpart Powell askew in the five seconds we have left.
If your side wins what's the margin.
It's going to be close I.
-- 3% maybe two to 3% I think it's going to be a close election.
But there's no question governor Romney's gonna be electing the next president tonight Sean Spicer thank you for the -- appreciate your time.

The Magic of the Mayan Riviera
You have heard about the French Riviera, the Italian Riviera, and goodness knows how many others — but what about the Mayan Riviera? It is better for the budget than its European brethren, and extremely family friendly for those looking for a sunny, warm, and fun vacation.
The Mayan Riviera is located in the southern portion of the very tip of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. Visiting it, you get to enjoy an amazing seventy five miles of prime Mexican Caribbean coastline — who could ask for more? Needless to say, the weather is to die for: there are gorgeous beaches dressed with pristine white sand and crystalline, cerulean blue seas.
Some of the cities which make up the Mayan Riviera include Cancun, Puerto Morelos, Playa del Carmen, Akumal, and Tulum. Within its bounds, there are no less than four Exo Theme Parks.
In addition to these parks, as well as the inherent beaches, there are aviaries and more opportunities for water sports than you can even imagine. Swim with the dolphins, enjoy the Mayan culture, go sailing or snorkeling — all with your family, for the vacation of a lifetime.
