Not the most comfortable bed and awoken by a garbage truck outside at 5:45 am but the staff and public areas made up for those negatives. I believe it was the manager that checked us in at night and helped us the next day, he was extremely friendly and welcoming.

We were very happy with our stay at the Hampton Inn Jackson!!! We thought the hotel was wonderful!! It was clean, had a great selection for breakfast and the staff was amazing. They were very friendly and extremely helpful!! We would stay here again in a heartbeat!!Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

Eggs at breakfast were little frozen balls of scrambled eggs that were thawed in microwave. Yuck.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia
"Great Hampton Inn"
Best Hampton Inn we have ever stayed at. Staff was friendly, hotel decor stunning and room was beautiful and comfortable.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
Picked this from Trip Advisor and looked for a place that was easy to get to and looked nice. Was very pleased with the amenities including the hot tub. The room was clean, didn't, have much of a view, but the beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the 2 days that we did stay there. Wished that it would have had a restaurant in it, but they did have a […] complimentary breakfast. The fruit was good, but I am not much for packaged eggs, so the rest of it was not that appetizing. Wished they would have had some other flavors of cream cheese or something on that order. Would recommend staying here. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia

"What I expected for the Hampton brand"
First, it is expensive to stay in Jackson--it is what it is. I could have found a cheaper place, but I went with the Hampton Inn because I have come to trust the Hilton/Hampton brand. This location did not disappoint and if anything, was better than expected. Hotel was clean and well kept, with a very helpful staff. Complimentary breakfast was very […] nice and again, what I expect from this brand. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia
"Gorgeous stay"
It was a very nice place to stay. I had read the reviews about the rooms being a little small because of the TV credenza being so large and that was the case. There were four in our party and it was a little cramped but the beauty of the room sure made up for it. It actually kept us more organized. The beds were very comfortable and the décor was excellent. […] Bathroom was good sized also. Breakfast each morning was over the top and the staff was so nice and helpful. Cookies and the outdoor firepits made for a relaxing end to our day of sightseeing. I would definitely stay here again. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

"Good location, smaller than I expected"
We've stayed in many Hampton Inns and found this one to be lacking in many ways. The room had way too much stuff in it for the tiny space. The bathroom was miniscule for four people...it was really too small for two people. Ridiculously tiny. Their are huge cabinets in the room that give you only the tiniest walk space and that was unnecessary. The […] dining area was also tiny. The flow of the breakfast area was also poorly designed. Honestly, I really like Hampton Inn, but this as the worst one we've stayed in. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia

Totally remodeled, and very very nice. The breakfast was fantastic and the dining room was beautiful. The rooms are a little small due to the very large entertainment/wardrobe area, but the pictures are an accurate depiction. The staff were all very nice, and the hotel is easy to find. Very nice for the price, just wish they had an indoor pool!Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

"Not too flashy, but a nice stay"
I was in town for a conference so the location was not a big deal for me. There is a major grocery store next to the property so, with their mini-fridge and microwave, I was well-fed. However, considering how many restaurants Jackson has to offer, I'd rent a car next time and eat out more. I'm not much of a breakfast person, but the continental breakfast […] seemed adequate: cereal, bagels, fruit, hard-boiled eggs, that sort of thing. I can't speak to the quietness of the rooms because it seems I was there between seasons. At one point, I wasn't sure if anyone else was staying there; picture The Shining without the snow. I used the exercise room a couple of times; if you're like me and NOT in Jackson to ski or hike or whatnot, that is a nice touch. The staff were great! They were all very friendly and helpful. If I were to recommend one thing for the management, it would be to get a shuttle van. A way to get to and from the airport and to the town center would have done wonders for my stay.

I was pleasantly surprised with the size and overall room in general. The lighting was too dim for my liking and we had some trouble locating the hotel from the road. We would stay there again for sure. The price was right for what we got. Thank you.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

"Basic hotel"
This hotel was ok. The rooms were very spacious and basically clean. Carpet in rooms and hallways needs to be replaced. Microwave and refrigerator is a big plus. Staff was very competent and friendly. The breakfast was good, except for the orange juice, which just did not taste good. Breakfast room was small, but we just took our food to our room. Our […] stay was satisfactory and the price was right. Przeczytaj więcejPrawdziwa opinia gościa Expedia

The only problem is the room was a little crowded with two queen beds. I suspect a king size room would have been better. Liked the wired internet, the location and the morning breakfast. Place was really good for us.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com
"not worth the money"
for a large amount a night I didn't expect only one roll of toilet paper, no conditioner, and a broken tv remote. The only nice thing was the whirlpool bath. Free wifi would have been nice, but that was not offered.Prawdziwa opinia gościa Hotels.com

Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs? More like Loonie for…uh…um…just read the blog.
I had no idea about this until I watched a DVR'ed episode of The Colbert Report tonight, but Iceland is looking to adopt the Canadian dollar as their currency.
Apparently when Iceland's economy bit it in 2008, their krona lost about 60% of its value. It has yet to recover, causing the country to fall in favor as far as foreign investors go.
To solve this, Iceland is looking outside its borders for solutions; namely, replacing the broken krona with a more stable foreign currency. The currency of choice? Canada's!
First of all, there are way too many currency-related puns that can come out of this.
I mean, I'll be Franc…is Iceland's Yen for Canadian currency Loonie, or do they just have a Nakfa creating close relationships with other northern countries? Even if that's the case, adopting another country's currency could present a Rial problem. But assuming that Iceland goes into this with all their heart and Sol, perhaps there won't be any major issues.
Second of all…another country with a Loonie? But Loonies are so…Canadian! What's next, geyser-adjacent Tim Hortons? Shark-infused poutine? Rapid acquisition of excess "eh"'s in Icelandic speech?
Interesting stuff. We'll have to stay updated to see if Canada allows its Loonie to migrate to Iceland.

The Greencards
Texas contemporary bluegrass trio the Greencards are aptly named. After coming to the realization that their English and Australian homelands were not so conducive to their uniquely American style of music, mandolin player Kim Warner, fiddler Eamon McLoughlin, and bass player Carol Young took their love of Ricky Skaggs and Bob Dylan, mixed it with a little Fairport Convention and David Bowie, and began hitting clubs in the Lone Star State. By 2004 they had earned themselves the Best New Band award at the Austin Music Awards, as well as a devoted fan base that included Robert Earl Keen. Their debut, the self-released Movin' On, arrived that same year and managed to sneak its way up the Americana charts, eventually peaking at number five. The grouped signed with Dualtone the following year and went into the studio to begin work on the follow-up. Highly sought-after engineer Gary Paczosa (Dolly Parton) was brought in and Weather and Water was born. Released in June of 2005, it's an impeccably recorded collection of ballads, instrumentals, and harmonious melodies that holds its own against contemporaries like Alison Krauss and Nickel Creek. It was followed in 2007 by Viridian. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
Selected Discography
We are about ready for the Bluegrass festival in Lexington this coming June. We would love to have them here
I saw them in Knoxville, TN. They were amazing live! Their recordings do not do their talent and energy justice. These guys are a must see!
Saw them in Roseberry Idaho. Love their style and freedom with music. Great band!
Just saw them at Worldfest last weekend at the Nevada County Fairgrounds in California. Loved them!
I wish we could bring them to Santa Barbara! Our contradancin g community would love it.
Pretty sure this is a Robert Earl Keen song.
Saw them this summer at Greyfox, very enjoyable
Their music is often, simply magical. Saw them recently at Poor David's Pub in Dallas...the y were amazing...
impeccable finger picking
When we lived near Austin, we saw them in a small bar in Bryan. Excellent musicians. Big fan for years now.
love this mandolin! Great in concert...
Nice instrumental music
Wow! I'm hooked.

Parents want their children to be successful in school. Teachers do too! However, not all children are ready for the same thing at the same time. While birth date determines when a child can legally start school, it does not guarantee that he or she is ready for the demands of today's Kindergarten, or that the particular Kindergarten setting is ready to meet the needs of your child.
Consider the fact that in a typical Kindergarten classroom, there will be a wide mix of birth dates, including a child born one day after the cutoff date, turning six in Kindergarten and thus one whole year older than a child who was born on the cutoff date or the day before. Factor in developmental rates and differences, and some children may differ by two years in terms of their developmental level.
While we do not suggest that waiting a year is the best solution for all young children, and we recognize that this simply is not an option for many families, particularly those without access to quality preschool settings, it may be a viable option for some children and in some schools. In certain cases, waiting a year may "level out the playing field" so that development can catch up with chronological age, or age and development can catch up with the school's expectations.
Being "ready for school" requires so much more than academic knowledge, and being aware of the school or program's developmental expectations is key in understanding whether or not your child is ready for that Kindergarten classroom. Regardless of the setting, social, emotional, and physical readiness are equally, if not more important, than achievement skills.7
Developmentally young children may have not yet acquired the fine motor skills necessary for writing, the attention span to remain seated and focused, or the social skills necessary to interact in the structured environment of the classroom. Before deciding whether or not to enroll your child in Kindergarten, it is important to understand what will be expected of your child and to know how he or she will meet those expectations.

Some Curves/Average Height
I ordered the top and bottom sofia swimsuit. The top fits very odd ( I ordred the small, I am and thought this top would have been fine ) , if you are smaller chested this is not the swimsuit for you. The bandeau top buckles weirdly across your chest, they sewed in cups which are as wide as the bandeau top itself and that is a problem. They should have just made the bandeau top and then had cup inserts that person could then insert themselves into the bandeau , depending on how full their bust line was. Beautiful in concept not so much in reality. Could have been much better designed. Not happy with it at all.

Is biking less safe, or does it just seem so?
October 7, 2012

Cabrini world mourns loss of its guiding light
August 15, 2003
There's a good chance that someone will stand up at Miss Hen's funeral Saturday and call her the Mother Teresa of Larrabee Street, Cabrini-Green. If you didn't know her, though, that description doesn't evoke the person you'd have seen if you'd seen Miss Hen, who died Sunday at 73 with hardly a wrinkle in her face.

It's Friday morning and, though she's been ordered to be out by nightfall, she cannot pack one more gadget or romance novel into one more box until she's squirted Dove into the kitchen sink and washed those unused dishes. No way is she moving into a new place with plates stained by cockroaches.

Advice, like youth, probably just wasted on the young
June 1, 1997
Inside every adult lurks a graduation speaker dying to get out, some world-weary pundit eager to pontificate on life to young people who'd rather be Rollerblading. Most of us, alas, will never be invited to sow our words of wisdom among an audience of caps and gowns, but there's no reason we can't entertain ourselves by composing a Guide to Life for Graduates.
Vivid memories light way home for Christmas ghosts
December 25, 1996
The father of my friend Laura died last Christmas Eve, and for all the grief it brought her family, there was a certain poetry in her father's timing. He was of Icelandic heritage and so Christmas Eve, in accordance with Icelandic custom, had always been the high point of the Christmas holidays for him and his wife and children.

Japan's Special Envoy Yasushi Akashi last night called on all Sri Lankans to draw strength from its greatness to overcome challenges in the highly favourable post-war era.
"I am not aware of any other developing country that has faced such a dire challenge and emerged with significant results," Akashi said commenting on the Government's response to the humanitarian crisis in the North at a premier business forum yesterday
"And it is rare to find a more beautiful, more natural resource filled, more warm hearted and more talented country like Sri Lanka in the world where even despite the violent conflict that people had to endure, everyone is coming together to rebuild the nation," he said at the inauguration of Ceylon Chamber organised two and half day Sri Lanka Economic Summit titled "Dawning of a new era: Opportunities and Challenges."
Akashi stated that Sri Lanka is now faced with a 'unique and non-recurrent' opportunity to build a united and truly pluralistic democracy based on universal human rights.
"There is no point blaming the colonial system of divide and rule after 60 years of independence," he stressed. "You have proven that you can work in unity and solidarity, in friendship and in business and that is a trend that needs to be accelerated now."
Japan has pledged to support Sri Lanka in the early resettlement of the IDPs into permanent homes, removal of landmines, basic infrastructure, vocational training in fisheries, agriculture and environmental concerns. However, Akashi stated that apart from a Government to Government official approach, it is the ideal time for the private sector to spearhead development.
"To facilitate this, it is important that administrative impediments are removed expeditiously and when making policies, naïve cosmopolitanism and extreme nationalism must be left behind."
Speaking on the same vein, Prime Minister Rathnasiri Wickremanayake stated that the private sector in Sri Lanka must be commended on their efforts. "With the right policies at the right time Sri Lanka has managed to negate the effects of the global economic crisis," he said, "And with the end of terrorism there is many more opportunities and challenges that we need to face together."
He said that now is the time for post-war development with focus on infrastructural development but added that it is important to let the people who suffered from the war to feel the benefits of peace and that domestic growth must be encouraged.

I would love to help with this effort. I'm a total n00b at this stuff and am also finding it difficult to find the relevant information. A lot of the tutorials and HOW-TO docs are out of date.
I'm particularly interested in learning to use the JSON-RPC system to get info from the database. One of the tutorials I saw (on the official wiki) said directly accessing the databases through sqlite, etc., is actively discouraged. So if I make any headway in figuring this out, I'll help contribute to your new documentation. ;-) |

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Natural Gas Country Notes
Proved recoverable reserves (bcm) |
121 |
Production (net bcm, 2005) |
12.4 |
R/P ratio (years) |
9.6 |
The Romanian WEC Member Committee reports proved recoverable reserves of 120.9 bcm, a further reduction on the 163.3 bcm reported for the 2004 Survey and the 405.6 bcm advised for the 2001 edition. Published assessments of Romania's gas reserves vary widely, ranging from Oil & Gas Journal's 101 bcm (reduced to only 63 at end-2006) to Cedigaz and BP at around 630 bcm. The proportion of proved recoverable reserves that is non-associated with crude oil is reported to be 90.4%.
The reported additional amount of 'unproved' gas in place has fallen again, from 100.6 to 70.7 bcm, of which approximately 32% is considered to be recoverable.
After peaking in the mid-1980s, Romania's natural gas output has been in gradual secular decline, falling to around 12 bcm in recent years, only about one-third of its peak level. Indigenous production currently supplies about two-thirds of Romania's gas demand; the principal users are power stations, CHP and district heating plants, the steel and chemical industries and the residential/commercial sector.

Cardinals' Sendlein placed on IR; Scott Wedige signed
The Arizona Cardinals placed center Lyle Sendlein on injured reserve Tuesday, ending the veteran's season.
Sendlein suffered a torn MCL in his left knee in Sunday's loss to the St. Louis Rams. Sendlein, a fifth-year pro from the University of Texas, had started every game over the last four-plus seasons at center for Arizona.
To take his roster spot, the Cardinals signed Scott Wedige off the Cincinnati Bengals practice squad Tuesday.
Wedige originally signed with the Cardinals as an undrafted free agent out of Northern Illinois, but was released on August 31. Before hooking on with Cincinnati, Wedige had spent time on the New York Giants practice squad.

I'm fairly new to Adobe CS and I've been running into a few issues. I've used it fairly consistently at work, but I want to branch out and do some graphic design on my own, so I bought a student license and set about teaching myself! Anyway, I got a Wacom Intuos5 medium tablet to go with this and I think it's causing a few issues. First, it seems like it's causing Illustrator CS6 to crash on launch. If I open an Illustrator document (I'm running Win7 64bit with 16gb of RAM), I get a message that Illustrator CS6 has stopped working. I close that pop-up and try to open the same document again and it opens just fine. I read in a release note that this is due to a plugin associated with Inkling, but I don't have that installed, so I'm not sure that this is what I'm experiencing. I've uninstalled the tablet and went about launching Illustrator again and it seems to working just fine. Is there a fix for this?
Second, I was just getting familiar with the brush tool the other day and noticed that when I used the tablet, the brush tool just quits drawing after about 7 seconds. So I made the same scribbles (just making figure eights over and over again) with my mouse and it seems to cut out after about 15 seconds this time. Is there something I might be doing wrong or this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?
Also, I'm running two SSDs and a 1TB HDD. I have WIN7 and other small things on one SSD and CS6 currently installed on the other SSD. Could this be an issue? I'm at work right now, but I plan on uninstalling both the table and CS6 and only installing CS6 onto my WIN7 SSD to see if this clears anything up.
Thanks for any suggestions ahead of time!

My newest release...THE DEAD AND BURIED.
"Harrington continues to demonstrate her gift for threading paranormal elements into thrilling mysteries—haunted old estates are a dime a dozen, but there's something especially creepy about ghosts lingering in suburban cul-de-sacs and McMansions." - Publishers Weekly
"Spine-chilling...lively and fast-paced...readers will keep trying to guess the real murderer until the final pages. Downright, satisfyingly creepy." - Kirkus Reviews
