Graeme McDowell is an asshole. In my opinion.
Filthy old alcoholic lying trampy bastard.Rafa emptied your stadium in the 76th minute you horrible hard-shoulder shitter.
Ah ha 5th.McDowell is a dick. Dodgy American accent who has often dismissed his roots. Fuck him.
He's from the same town as me ma.1. He has had the accent for years.2. Been on the Euro tour till he turned up on the American tour less than 5 years ago.3. Tours the world with people from every country.4. Has developed a strange tone despite this.
They do say opinions are like assholes...And I'd say your opinion is very like one
All perfectly normal, doesn't explain why he is a 'dick' or an 'asshole' at all.
Got that accent in college, while living in Alabama. Talks glowingly about northern irish & southern irish golf & golfers. who gives a fuck what he sounds like, he is a decent fella & has never said bad things about his place of birth, people or anything. I think you gotta get in line & grow up, not Graeme.
Can I not say that I do not like a sportmans over another??I don't like his interviews or his arrogance.Thats fair.
I think you gotta get in line.
Can I not say that I do not like a sportmans over another??
Also...What does this mean??
Fair enough.I havent met the man.But that does me head in.Good shot there in fairness.
you can say you dont like someone, sure. But why call someone a dick & make up shit.it's the sort of stuff a 15 year old would say.
Never had a problem with you Conman.But I dont like the way he goes about his game.mate either right?Now...he's probably not a dick.No.But he aint your mate either right?
it means you are stepping out of line with baseless opinions. maybe you can reign them in unless you can back them up
I am going to hunt that Mashed Potato guy down and batter him to death with a putter.
What?Sorry. But now. I am hardly renowed for my opinions on here.And I love the fact that we are doing well.But if I have tom apologise for not liking McDowell and calling him a dick - then ok.But dont tell me I have to get on side - or that my opinions are not my own.I dont like him.Dont like Roy Keane either.Or your avatar.
tell me you like ice cream, everybody likes icecream
Graeme struggling now, likely bogey here again, could be 3 behind. Simpson the danger man now to Furyk
The "text book" coaches will not be impressed if Furyk wins.
This ad for Sky Sports golf has totally freaked me out.

Amsterdam Data Center (AMS01): Does it Measure Up?
By Kevin Hazard in Business, Infrastructure, International, SoftLayer, TechnologySoftLayer data centers are designed in a "pod" concept: Every facility in every location is laid out similarly, and you'll find the same network and server hardware connected to the same network. The idea behind it is that this design makes it easier for us to build out new locations quickly, we can have identical operational processes and procedures in each facility, and customers can expect the exact same hosting experience regardless of data center location. When you've got several data centers in one state, that uniformity is easy to execute. When you open facilities on opposite sides of the country, it seems a little more difficult. Open a facility in another country (and introduce the challenge of getting all of that uniformity across an ocean), and you're looking at a pretty daunting task.
Last month, I hopped on a plane from Houston to London to attend Cloud Expo Europe. Because I was more or less "in the neighborhood" of our newest data center in Amsterdam, I was able to take a short flight to The Netherlands to do some investigatory journalism … err … "to visit the AMS01 team."
Is AMS01 worthy of the SoftLayer name? … How does it differ from our US facilities? … Why is everything written in Dutch at the Amsterdam airport?
The answers to my hard-hitting questions were pretty clear: SoftLayer's Amsterdam facility is absolutely deserving of the SoftLayer name … The only noticeable differences between AMS01 and DAL05 are the cities they're located in … Everything's written in Dutch because the airport happens to be in The Netherlands, and people speak Dutch in The Netherlands (that last question didn't get incorporated into the video, but I thought you might be curious).
Nearly every aspect of the data center mirrors what you see in WDC, SEA, HOU, SJC and DAL. The only differences I really noticed were what the PDUs looked like, what kind of power adapter was used on the crash carts, and what language was used on the AMS facility's floor map. One of the most interesting observations: All of the servers and power strips on the racks used US power plugs … This characteristic was particularly impressive to me because every gadget I brought with me seemed to need its own power converter to recharge.
When you see us talking about the facilities being "the same," that's not a loosely used general term … We could pull a server from its rack in DAL05, buckle it into an airplane seat for a 10-hour flight, bring it to AMS01 (via any of the unique modes of Amsterdam transportation you saw at the beginning of the video), and slide it into a rack in Amsterdam where we could simply plug it in. It'd be back online and accessible over the public and private networks as though nothing changed … Though with Flex Images making it so easy to replicate cloud and dedicated instances in any facility, you'll just have to take our word for it when it comes to the whole "send a server over to another data center on a plane" thing.
While I was visiting AMS01, Jonathan Wisler took a few minutes out of his day to give a full tour of the data center's server room, and we've got video and pictures to share with more shots of our beautiful servers in their European home. If there's anything in particular you want to see from AMS01, let us know, and we'll do our best to share it!
P.S. Shout out to the SLayers in the Amsterdam office who offered their linguistic expertise to add a little flair to the start of the video … From the four employees who happened to be in the office when I was asking for help, we had six fluent-language contributions: English, Italian, French, Dutch, Polish and German!
**UPDATE** After posting this video, I learned that the "US" server power plugs I referred to are actually a worldwide computer standard called C13 (male) and C14 (female).

Tater Pancakes
You ever had that situation where you bough too much potatoes and left them a little too long, and they start to grow those nasty little stalks?
No? Anyway, I love potatoes but how many times can u bake and boil them the same old boring way? Besides I wanted to find a dish that I could make for tea or breakfast. So a quick search on Google and wah-la, potato pancakes!
I substituted a few things from the recipe. Mainly margarine instead of butter (I'm sure the latter would have made it taste 10x better but I was out) and instead of the fancy garlic salt I just chopped up some garlic and used regular salt and pepper. I also served them with barbecue sauce and mayo instead of sour cream though my friends preferred Thai sweet chilli sauce
I had some trouble shaping the batter into pancakes. Even with insane amounts of flour the damn thing wouldn't hold and kept falling apart in the pan. I'm thinking the issue could have been avoided if I had used butter or left it refrigerated for a few more hours.
Although mine ended up looking more like flat tater fritters, I bet they would make a great addition for breakfast along side some cherry tomatoes, bacon and eggs.

My friend has the cutest little boy's bedroom for her son. It's all decorated in cowboys. She has dress up costumes for him to play in as well. My favorite is a novelty horse on a stick that she got for him to ride as he runs around.
She has done a fabulous job with all of the decorations. Any little boy would be proud to call that room his own. The bedding has cowboy boots and cowboy hats on a rustic quilt. It's in shades of a brick red and brown. She has matching window treatments above the blinds. The walls have decals and a few actual hats hung up above his bed. It's absolutely adorable.
I want to get something for him that would fit great in with the cowboy theme. I was thinking it could be fun to get him some sherif badges. I bet I could get a little set that includes all of the dress up accessories.

If you are visiting Singapore you should try to visit Marina Bay Sands. There are restaurants and bars available here and if you have decided not to stay in the hotel, you can just pay S$20 to visit the SkyPark, you could always just go up enjoy the lights of the skyline.

Holy jeez it's been a month already. Time sure does fly...
5+ years, 4,000+ songs, 1 awesome developer. Thank you!
well it will be hard to beat last month's RBN community spotlight thread... but if someone announces Ayreon, Parry Gripp, or some Brony music I will be the happiest person ever
More Ayreon!

I don't know if it'll be a pain in the ass or not, but can the announcements please make a clearer distinction between a newly announced song or a song that was announced before that has a chart video up?
It gets really difficult and annoying looking through the posts to find the new songs so I can listen to them and give my opinion on them. Just my 2 cents.
My tumblr page, yo: http://heyitsmario.tumblr.com/
I plan to announce some REALLY good stuff on Friday. Be excited.
If it helps any, when I do announcements for CTA I start with previously announced stuff that now has a chart preview before moving on to newly announced stuff, and I make a mention of what's what. I'm sure most of the authors who post here do the same.
Paolo Viteri, CEO/Lead Author
Man, I wish I had things to announce. Oh wait, I do. Anyone like electric violin driven prog?
I went to Harmonix and ordered a pepperoni pizza. Instead, they gave me a cheese pizza and told me that I could buy one pepperoni slice every week.

Dear YD colleagues,
As we approach the end of the year, I want to take a moment to celebrate and thank you for the wonderful work you have done to provide positive youth development for Minnesota youth. I also want to update you on plans to engage you in helping shape where the Center for Youth Development is headed in the coming years.
Since we launched our new staffing structure a little over a year ago, regional and statewide teams have been working hard, exploring new ways of working together that leverage team members' skills and abilities, and developing and implementing plans based on regional and statewide needs. During our time to gather with Youth Development educators and state program staff at fall conference, staff shared highlights of new teams progressing in their work together, new partnerships, professional development goals achieved, and accomplishments in work/life balance, such as fun vacations, travel, and home projects.
At fall conference, I also shared our vision for future work in the Center for Youth Development. That vision included a continuing commitment to the priority areas of program quality and volunteer systems, which provide the infrastructure that will help us achieve our goals across all of our work, as well as the content areas of Citizenship & Leadership, Science of Agriculture (formerly known as Animal Science), Youth Worker Training and STEM.
One area I highlighted was the decision by the Youth Development Leadership Team to increase our investment and focus in STEM over the next few years, including a new emphasis on engineering. Only 5% of American students get their undergraduate degree in science and engineering compared to 66% of Japanese and 59% of Chinese students. We know engaging youth in STEM at an early age increases the likelihood of their continued interest and study in STEM. 4-H has taken up the challenge to help equip youth with the STEM skills they need to compete in the 21st century.
Engineering design is a perfect fit with 4-H's hands-on experiential model, and a logical next step in our STEM efforts. Science is learning about the world, while engineering design involves solving a problem. Both require identifying and researching questions or problems, and determining and implementing a plan to answer the question or design a solution.
You'll be hearing more from the statewide 4-H STEM team in the coming months about their planning as it progresses and opportunities for staff to participate in piloting efforts next year. In the meantime, please continue with the great STEM work that you have already been doing in your counties. There are no expectations for staff to include these newly emerging STEM content areas in next year's plans of work.
You will also hear more in the coming months about webinars we plan to hold for educators and program coordinators about Youth Development's vision and goals for the future. Our intent is to provide opportunities for engagement and dialogue about the vision, and benefit from your insight and ideas about how we could achieve our vision in counties and regions.
I look forward to working with you as we continue to make our vision for the Center for Youth Development a reality. Have a wonderful holiday with your family members and friends.
Associate dean & state 4-H director

On Tuesday last week, Turkey reversed its previous stand and decided to accept aid from Israel to help deal with the tragic earthquake that had stricken the country's east. Shipments of portable housing units began the next day. Turkey's Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu was quick to emphasize that accepting aid did not signal an improvement in diplomatic relations between the two countries, strained ever since Israel's raid of a Turkish aid flotilla bound for Gaza in 2010 -- likely a response to the perception that aid can buy off recipient governments, even if it can't change popular attitudes. The irony is that the humanitarian assistance that responds to disasters -- unlike the majority of aid that goes to long-term development projects -- might be the one case where that logic is sometimes reversed.
At a time when the United States' aid budget is confronted by an army of hatchet-wielding deficit hawks among the Republican Party's congressional majority and presidential candidates, some aid proponents are making the case that development and humanitarian assistance are powerful tools to buy friends and influence people. And it is true that aid has long been used to grease the often-rusty wheels of diplomacy. The Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel were cemented with the help of an aid package worth an average of $2 billion a year to Egypt. Since 1985, U.S. law has mandated that the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) take account of would-be aid recipients' voting patterns at the United Nations -- rewarding larger aid packages to those who vote with America. Political Scientists David Carter at Pennsylvania State and Randall Stone at the University of Rochester note that this kind of carrot-minded approach has been successful, influencing countries' votes on decisions that the U.S. State Department declares as politically important.
Twisting politicians' arms is one thing, but changing popular attitudes is another matter entirely. Look again at Egypt: Despite being one of the largest recipients of USAID financing over the past 30 years, Pew surveys suggest only 20 percent of Egyptians have a favorable view of the United States -- considerably less than half of the U.S. favorability rating in former Cold War foe Russia. Popular opinion in Egypt is driven by other factors, not least broader U.S. foreign policy in the region. (A propensity to invade neighboring countries doesn't help.) And development assistance just isn't a major factor in the financial fortunes of the average citizen. Maybe that was true back in 1990, when net overseas development assistance to the country equaled 36 percent of government expenditures. But by 2008, that figure was just 3 percent -- only a little more one-tenth the value of tourism and one-seventh that of manufacturing exports.
Aid's limited impact on public opinion usually applies even when the aid is specifically focused on winning converts. A study by consultant Michael Kleinman and Mark Bradbury, a director at the Rift Valley Institute, looked at U.S. military aid for small projects in Kenya designed to improve popular support for the U.S. military presence there, and found that it didn't. Attitudes were shaped by faith, the relationship between target populations and the Kenyan state, U.S. foreign policy, and events in Somalia -- not by a U.S.-financed well or asphalt road. A German aid agency-financed 2010 study, using repeated surveys in Afghanistan's Takhar and Kunduz provinces, found that in a comparatively peaceful period between 2005 and 2007, development aid did have a small, short-lived positive impact on the general attitudes of Afghan respondents towards foreign peace-building operations in their backyard. But this impact disappeared as threat perceptions rose between 2007 and 2009. Not surprisingly, other factors -- in this case, how many people were getting shot -- were just more important than who was cutting the checks.
But there is evidence of an exception to the rule that money can't buy love, and it involves disaster assistance. Four years after a 2005 earthquake in northern Pakistan, economists Tahir Andrabi of Pomona College and Jishnu Das of the World Bank surveyed attitudes towards foreigners in the region. They found trust in foreigners was significantly higher in areas where humanitarian aid had been concentrated than in other areas -- dropping off by six percentage points for each 10 kilometers of distance from the fault line.

From Bayou reader, "just wondering in Silsbee" (funny, we're always wondering about Silsbee, too):
"[Did] anyone else had his/her car vandalized Saturday night around the mall? When we returned to our car from dinner at Logan's, we found deep cuts in the paint — cuts that could not have been made by someone's key but rather by a knife. The restaurant has no security cameras in the lot. We didn't expect to ever find the culprit anyway. I can't imagine that ours was the only vehicle out of thousands in that area that was damaged. But then it could have been."
We've gotten a few emails today from folks who had encounters of the "Scrooge" kind this past week (normal for this time of year), but none like this. Consider it a pubic service — anyone else get "steak knifed" over the weekend? Tell us your tale.

EATON, MADISON COUNTY -- A Madison County babysitter is facing charges after the toddler she was watching was found wandering alone.
It happened in the Town of Eaton around 9:05 a.m.
Madison County Sheriff's deputies say they found a 2 1/2 year old boy standing along the grass shoulder of Park Street near Route 26.
Deputies say the little boy was carrying his shoes and his pants were soggy.
Investigators say the boy had wandered about a quarter mile away from home.
They say the child's babysitter, 20-year-old Starr Miller, put the boy down for a nap. They say he then wandered off while Miller was sleeping. The boy's mother was notified, and she was reunited with her son.
Miller is charged with endangering the welfare of a child, a misdemeanor. She was issued an appearance ticket and is scheduled to appear in court on October 10.

Jerrie Williams is a blogger on the Beauregard Daily News website. The name of her blog is C.O.P.E. Community Organized Parents in Education. This blog is syndicated statewide to all GateHouse websites. She will not only be blogging about local education concerns, but information about resources for parental research on different subjects concerning children and their well being. Jerrie Williams is the mother of three autistic children. Her journey began in 1999, when she discovered that her children were not developing according to the national mind stone charts. This was after they had received immunizations and developed reactions to them. She later learned the immunizations contained an agent that her children were allergic to, which led to their developmental delays. She moved her children to Georgia to be treated by a specialist in autism and brain injury in 2000.

Chicago Fire recently filmed a fake plane crash that was so convincing, one local Chicago news station reported the accident as breaking news!
News anchors Larry Potash and Robin Baumgarten of Chicago's WGN-Channel 9 showed images of the accident while telling viewers to bear with them as they tried to get information. After noting that one wing was knocked off, the anchors got word the crash wasn't real - much to the obvious dismay of the anchors. Baumgarten repeatedly asked "Are you kidding me?" before saying "They might want to tell the news folks when they're doing this."

A Chicago Fire Department spokesman later told The Chicago Tribune that information about the fake crash was not distributed properly to the correct channels. "It looks like it didn't get filtered down to everybody," Larry Langford told the paper. A spokesman for Universal TV said all the "usual protocol" was followed.

The national sales tax (19%) is charged upon check-out to all Chilean citizens regardless of length of stay and to foreigners staying 60 consecutive days or more. In case the room is shared by both a taxable and a non-taxable guest at the same time, the sales tax will be applied to the whole room.
"Loreto Hotel, Santiago, Chile"

"Lovely hotel in good location"
My husband and daughter and I stayed at the Hotel Loreto for 2 nights. We arrived in the morning well before check in time. The staff was excellent, very kind and helpful. Most spoke English well. They stored our bags and offered us the option of showering. We were able to go to the breakfast, which was tasty and options were plentiful. They offered […] very nice dinner and sightseeing tips. The hotel is convenient to the Metro and we always felt safe walking in the area. Beds and linens were very comfortable.They allowed us to leave our extra bags the following night when we went for a one night excursion to the country. We could not have asked for a more positive experience. I will be sure to stay there again if I travel to Santiago. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评

"Good location"
A convenient location, with very helpful staff. Room was a bit small for three peopleHotels.com 真实住客点评
"Comfortable, clean and affordable place to stay"
Hotel Loreto was very nicely situated...we were able to walk to many main sites such as Patio Bellavista, Cerro San Cristobal, Mercado Central, Plaza de Armas and Catedral Metropolitana and Cerro Santa Lucia to name a few. Anything that was further was easily accessible via the Metro station just a few blocks from the hotel. The rooms are small; if […] you are used to boutique hotels or European mid-level hotels, it is comparable. If you are looking for the big rooms typical of chain hotels, you will not get it here. The neighborhood is in transition; it is scenic in it's own way, but if you are the type of traveler that prefers window shopping and posh places, you might not appreciate the immediately surrounding neighborhood. It is more bohemian and in transition, which can make a person nervous after dark. However, we never had issues and within a 5 -block walk are nice places to hang out for nightlife. The staff was lovely and gracious; and even with Spanish/English language barriers, we were able to communicate fairly well. Breakfast was great, and the hotel had comfortable gathering areas where we could kick back with a glass of wine and enjoy friends. In general, a good hotel for the price. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Good location, average room"
Hotel is located 3 blocks from bellavista - the main restaurant and bar area - safe to walk there at night. Was just over the river from the main city square as well. Room was pretty small and bathroom was average. Ok value for money, however I think Santiago is pretty expensive overallHotels.com 真实住客点评

"Great hotel to stay at - good location"
Overall great hotel - positives were quiet, I got a room with a huge king bed and a single bed even though it was just me, breakfast was a great range, awesome location - very close to the plaza armas, fish market and the bellavista area. The only downers were that the water in the hotel was pricey and the taxi they ordered for me to go the airport […] never arrived but maybe they couldn't control that. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
"Loved it"
The staff are so lovely! keen to help and give advice on where to visit in Santiago. Loreta at the front desk took extra special care of me when I arrived jet lagged from my 14 hour flight from Australia. Beds are comfy, showers great and breakfast super tasty. We tried two rooms, room on the second floor had a lovely balcony over the courtyard and […] on the third floor we had a view out over the city. The room was a little bit cold, but as soon as we asked the heat was turned up and the room toasty :) 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
"Wonderful stay!"
Absolutely fantastic. Don't stay anywhere else. Location is fantastic, staff is excellent. Room was perfect. Beautiful little balcony looking down into a courtyard with an orange tree. Great breakfast and communal areas. Walk across the street and buy a bottle of vino tinto to take onto the rooftop balcony. Yes, it's loud and walls are thin. Worth […] it. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
"Just an overall wonderful experience!"
We love Hotel Loreto and will recommend it to all. The staff was great, so helpful. We had a very long trip to get there with many delays and everyone was so welcoming and the hotel is so very comfortable. Our son is studying abroad in Santiago so he knew the area very well and we were close to everything we wanted to do. We either walked or used the […] very good mass transit system in Santiago. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Convenient location, comfy bed and gd breakfast."
Great! The staff were friendly, breakfast was good and rooms were comfortable. We had 3 beds in our twin room and 2 pillows each per bed! A huge plus for me was when they served strawberries and kiwis at breakfast :)Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Charming hotel in interesting area"
We really enjoyed this hotel and thought it was excellent value. Hotel Loreto is in the arty area of Bella Vista, close to the historical area for sight seeing as well as cafes and night life. It is spacious and airy, renovated around a pretty courtyard. The bedrooms are small with balconies overlooking the courtyard which means it is quiet and you […] have fresh air. The beds are excellent with really good cotton linen. Staff were very friendly and helpful about sight seeing, transportation, keeping suitcases secure before a night departure. There was a glitch with our reservation- ti was handled with courtesy to our satisfaction. You need to request a room with ensuite or you may have a private bathroom across the hall. Breakfast was generous too. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Big Mistake in Santiago"
It started with a less than impressive lobby and went down hill from there. No elevator. The safe didn't work in the room. The air conditioner started spewing the condensation after 15 min of use (onto the room floor). I had to use the bucket from the bathroom to catch it. The TV didn't work. The bathroom was so small that I could literally sit on the […] toilet, wash my feet in the 'shower' while bruching my teeth at the sink. The toilet stopped up the first day. The shower was so small that if I dropped the soap and bent over either my head or rear end would stick out. No bar soap and no washcloths. The breakfast was something I wouldn't pay $5 for. I checked out 2 days early went to the Plaza San Francisco (Now that gets a great review). Everything I mentioned would be just fine if this hotel would have cost $35/night. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评

"Perfect location and perfect hotel"
Hotel Loreto is located in a wonderful neighborhood that is close to restaurants and night life. Despite its' proximity to the "action" the rooms are quiet since all windows and private balconies face an open air inner courtyard. The hotel staff are friendly, helpful, and fluent in English. This hotel is also within the "gay" area and convenient for […] gay and lesbian travelers. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评

"Very good for all"
The hotel was excellent. There is a large courtyard and terrace. It is quiet and yet only ten minutes from the restaurants. There are two faults which many hotels have today, a large bedroom almost filled by the bed and therefore no space to hang clothes, none at all. The second is that the bathroom was tiny.Expedia 真实住客点评
"Hidden Gem"
The hotel was excellent. The staff was superior. Even though we only had three days we could have spent two weeks just exploring the neighborhood. Many of the best rated restaurants were within a few blocks of this hotel. But this hotel was so comfortable that we could have just stayed on-site and enjoyed the relaxing environment.Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Great stay from beginning to end"
Hotel Loreto was a great place to stay from beginning to end. It is clean, and the furnishings seemed very new. The balcony was a wonderful plus. The staff was helpful and even offered to let us shower after we had checked out and were waiting to go to the airport.Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Warm & inviting boutique hotel"
Although the room was small for 2 fashionista clothes horses, the wonderful staff did everything to accommodate our hoarding disorder. They couldn't have been nicer.Expedia 真实住客点评
"No Air Conditioning"
The most important thing for me in a hotel room is the ability to sleep. The lack of air conditioning made the room too hot for me to be able to do that. My room didn't have a window and instead had a door which opened into a common balcony so I could not leave it open (it was cooler outside than in my room). The bed was hard and uncomfortable and the […] bathroom was tiny and difficult to use as was the tight tiny standup shower (my room didn't have a bath). The Positive: Location was good. About 15 minute walk gets you to many of the main sights. The Staff was friendly (though not necessarily competent as my Airport Taxi didn't arrive and I had to walk around the neighborhood looking for a taxi). Breakfast was adequate. Overall, would never stay again, since the friendliness of the staff doesn't help me sleep in an oven. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Walk into City Centre"
The Hotel Loreto is sparkling and well maintained, Lovely and airy, Looks new, but in old and interesting neighbourhood. Pleasant public rooms, and balconies in units. Really good breakfast. Staff extremly pleasant and looking to help in many ways. Would recommend to my friends and stay there again. Value for price too.Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Best hotel in South America"
I cannot praise this hotel enough. After 4 months of travelling around South America, I can honestly say this was the best hotel by far. The room was modern, bright, spacious and spotlessly clean with every modern convenience you could need. The balcony was an added bonus and despite being just a few mins walk from the main bars and restaurants, it […] was quiet and relaxing. Breakfast was delicious and the staff incredible. Loreto, the receptionist was exceptional - so welcoming and friendly and always smiling. Nothing was too much trouble for her or the rest of the staff. I genuinely was gutted to have to leave. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
"We only had 24 hours in Santiago..."
The Hotel Loreto was perfect. We only had 24 hours in Santiago (long layover), but wanted to get out and see the city. We arrived at midnight and the front desk staff was so welcoming...the bellhop even went out and got us four beers to drink in our room!! The hotel is modern, but classy, with big balconies in each room. The room was very quite; with […] the balcony door closed you could hear a pin drop, so we got great sleep. The location is perfect for anyone that wants to see some of the city. We walked to the museums, market, plaza de arms, and the Bellavista barrio area. I'd strongly recommend this hotel to anyone. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Handy location for a tourist"
Attractive facility conveniently located between the tourist sights of Centro and the bars and restaurants of Bellavista. I just walked. My first-floor room (102) was cramped but it was just me and I only had carry-on luggage so I didn't need much space. The big bed was more valuable to me. Good breakfast.Hotels.com 真实住客点评
"Comfortable new property"
We enjoyed staying three nights at the Loreto. While the hotel appears to be a relatively new property and the staff appears to be learning on the job, it is a pleasant place to stay. The staff spoke little English but was helpful and very approachable. The Bella Vista barrio is a charming area and close to the city center, subway and other interesting […] areas. We found that the breakfast offered was typical, but the hotel ran out of various items (did not stock enough). So if you ate late you could not rely on there still being scrambled eggs, fresh fruit, butter, etc. Nevertheless, we do recommend the hotel and would stay there again. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评

A lovely hotel in the centra of Barrio Bellavista. Staff couldn't do enough to help. The rooms are a little small but more than made up for by the balconies and lots and lots of common areas to sit, including terrace views, wifi, outdoor areas.

Nice newer hotel. Parking is off site, the rooms are a bit small but there are very nice common areas to relax in. Some of the rooms have shared balconies which should be mentioned before the room is issued....not too much of a problem but the rooms don't have A/C so you could get stuck sharing with a smoker.Expedia 真实住客点评
"Stay here!"
Hotel Loreto is an new, eco-friendly hotel in the suburb of Bellavista. All rooms face the courtyard and have doors that open to balconies and the breeze. The hotel is exceptionally well designed to make use of natural light and has many public areas that are comfortable and welcoming. The roof top terrace is great for an afternoon drink and the wine […] tasting is a must! Computers are available and WiFi is free.The staff speak English and are extremely helpful. There are many places to eat, all within minutes of the hotel. This is a great hotel and we highly recommend it. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
"Loreto hotel"
Good reasonably priced hotel in a central locàtion. Staff were friendly and helpful. Only drawback was that there was no air conditioning or fans in the room we were given - the hotel staff indicated that all the 1st floor rooms were without aircon (which is fine) but also no fans - it was extremely hot in out room without either fan or airconExpedia 真实住客点评
"Great hotel. Would definitely stay here again."
Great place. Seemed new (2012). Clean. Bright. Sunny. Helpful staff. Good location. Spacious common areas. Good breakfast - rolls, toast, juice, coffee, fruit, cheese, ham, eggs, yogurt. An oasis in an otherwise seedy part of town, Bella Vista.Expedia 真实住客点评
"Even better than I expected"
Was very convenient to all the downtown area as well as the funicular, zoo and a dining district just a few blocks away. Rooms were clean, management spoke English and was very responsive to our requests. I asked about a day trip to Aconcagua that I saw on a card in the lobby. Without my even asking, Carlos, the concierge called the number and got all […] the particulars for me. Not an exclusive upscale hotel, but exactly what i wanted: very clean and comfortable, great location, helpful staff, good breakfast included and quite reasonable. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评

Did not know what to expect staying in Santiago for first time. Was pleasantly suprised with hotel and staff. Breakfast in the morning was adequate. Not far from centro of Santiago, about a 15 to 20 min walk. Some restuarants in the area. Also can walk about 10 mins and go to calle constitucion where there are tons of restuarants. (nice area) Hotel […] has a nice rooftop area and courtyard with seating area. The only negative I have about the hotel is that we stayed on the 1st floor, and I could here the guy in the front desk everytime he spoke. 阅读更多信息Hotels.com 真实住客点评

"Would stay here again!"
Hotel Loreto opened only a few months ago, hence everything is clean, modern and comfortable. The location can't be beat - Bellavista restaurants and nightlife just around a few blocks away and several places in downtown Santiago are only a 15-20 min. walk. The standard rooms, incl. bathrooms (w/ shower) are very small. It was cleaned every day and […] fit our needs, since we spent most of the time in the city and or the common areas (see below). If you are looking for a generous space with a desk, jacuzzi tub etc., the standard room is not for you. The common areas are top notch - roof deck, lounge area with several laptops, bar (serves food which we never tried), outdoor area, spacious breakfast room. Breakfast was plentiful (bread, toast, fruit, juice, coffee/tea, jam, cheese, ham). We were only a little bit confused by the scrambled eggs which were warm but completely undercooked - we might have missed a local delicacy there.... Cable TV, room safe and free WiFi is available throughout. They offer a laundry service which can be helpful but it was a bit pricy. The staff is professional and helpful. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评

Great hotel - i booked this for a night before travelling south to Patagonia - I came back to Santiago for 2 more nights after, and decided to book this hotel again. Very well located, close to Bella Vista bars and restaurants as well as the central business area. The whole building seemed recently renovated - clean, modern yet not stark or stale. […] Small rooms but filled with big beds nice furnishings and double french doors to ample balconies - but who needs much more space when you should be either out exploring Santiago or chilling in bed watching satellite TV?! Very quick, powerful wifi access and even laptops for guests. Great rooftop, decent breakfast and knowledgeable, pleasant staff who mostly spoke extremely good English. Very good value for money - I would have paid alot more to stay here. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评
"Hotel Loreto, Spring 2012"
Friendly and helpful personnel. Specially Mrs. Loreto (same name as hotel) helped us go by underground to Concha y Toro vinery, one third of a TURISTIK bus price. Avoid using TURISTIK, they always overbook and leave you waiting (give excuses and offer a 10% discount for the next day!). - Hotel room: Nice WiFi, but they charge even local phone calls. […] Good beds and TV, but very small bathroom. You don't hear your neighbors, but no double windows and there is a lot of street noise. - No elevator. - No AC. With 30C we had to open windows and hear the noise. They gave us a fan, but it wasn't enough the first days. Imagine summer! - Low quality buffet breakfast. Coffee is really bad in Chile, but it is dreadful in this hotel. Get used to tea bags. - Neighborhood is not nice unless you walk ten minutes away from the hotel. The underground "Bellas artes" is also ten minutes away. 阅读更多信息Expedia 真实住客点评

September, Rose; Savahl, Shazly (University of Johannesburg, 2009)[more][less]
Abstract: The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) through its reporting framework for nation states has prompted increasing interest on the measuring and monitoring of child well-being. The domains and indicators included in the repertoire of country measures of child well-being have mostly been constructed and monitored by adults, usually social scientists and government officials. This study explored children's own understandings of children's well-being. Sixteen focus groups were conducted with 200 children between the ages of 9 and 16 years. The study identified protection and safety, basic needs, community resources and psychosocial issues as the key domains of well-being. The study further highlighted the importance of perceiving well-being as an integrated whole consisting of closely interacting components rather than as a discrete multidimensional phenomenon.

Abstract: The author reflects on the findings of a study commissioned by the Human Science Research Council (HSRC). A qualitative research methodology was used to explore the perceptions of service providers in the early childhood development (ECD) sector on job creation through government's Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP). The EPWP is aimed at drawing significant numbers of unemployed people into productive work by increasing their capacity to earn a sustainable income through training. In response, the national departments of Social Development, Health, and Education developed a Social Sector Plan (SSP) for EPWP in which the ECD sector was identified as one of the key areas for expansion. From a developmental social work perspective, both Early Childhood Development and productive employment are important strategies to alleviate persistent poverty. This article is intended to create dialogue, further research and action towards realizing the potential of the ECD sector to create more sustainable jobs in order to improve the quality of people's lives.

Surviving Jodhaa Akbar
But I'm hugely proud to say that not only did I survive Jodhaa-Akbar but I actually enjoyed the entire experience. I'm not sure the people sitting in front of us would agree but the kids did well (there are some gruesome scenes which I would caution parents about - but because I tend to chuckle during bloodbaths my kids aren't usually particularly traumatized).
I also couldn't help but note that the theater owners must be cursing the running length of the movie as well. Not only does it mean fewer shows they can cram into a day (the primary reason studios have running length stipulations in their contracts with directors in Hollywood) but enough popcorn and drink refills were sought to probably cut down the concession stand margin to a measly 5000%.
If I had known about this I would have implemented another one of those business ideas of mine that never seem to go anywhere. I'd have printed a pamphlet and made it available outside the theater for $1. On one side, I would have snippets about Akbar, Jodhaa, the Mughal dynasty and history in general. You know, to educate audiences about the movie they were about to spend a significant part of their adult life watching. On the other side, I would have printed back and neck exercises.
Still, I went home with happy memories, not the least being the scenes in which Jodhaa reiterates that its a woman's good fortune to be in the kitchen and cook for her husband. This is good material to tease the Drift Memsaab with for weeks to come.
Let the games begin: I'm still waiting for my handwa, woman!

This from the desk of Drift (so-called) Memsaab...
I hurried home from the film in my "doli," to fire the baawarchi. I too shall serve a 19 course meal including daal bati churma and sohan halwa.
But before dinner, Jalal-u-Drift honey, would you please jump on the elephant just once for me?
Next on my to-do-list...

I think the wizened old adviser should do the dishes, don't you?
And as for that brochure, you need to write one for me if not the general public. I knew not one iota of the history and was blissful in my ignorance while the movie was going, but by tomorrow I will want to research and get righteously indignant at liberties taken. As is my way. - 2/17/2008 9:26 PM
ROFL Mrs.Drift !!!!
watching this tomorrow and i don't want the movie to end ever. I would have loved it if it was 6 hours long
No kidding about the length of the movie. I did chuckle a lot through out the movie at how bad the direction was. The songs were awful in the movie. The whole movie theatre here in Delhi would start laughing every time a song started.
I still amuse myself by just thinking about Hrithik's trance dance.
Having said that, I would watch the movie again just for Hrithik. He is looking simply delicious.
- Joules - 2/18/2008 12:58 AM
umm ok
i still have high hopes for the movie since it is directed by an oscar nominated director and i looooove the soundtrack.. and the length doesn't bother me..

m, you will definitely love it. The movie is worth a watch for Hrithik and Ash fans and is absolutely better than a lot of movies released lately.

I wrote a think piece on Jodhaa Akbar!! And Joules, I didn't think Hrithik's trance dance was giggle-worthy, but it could be seen as such, probably. What mystified me were the giggles that broke out when Akbar ordered that Adham Khan be re-chucked from the ramparts. This happened at every show that I attended. I have attended more than one or even two, as you may gather. But didn't the brutality of treating a half-dead man in this manner strike anyone?
- Aspi said...
That scene is another good example of how Gowarikar struggles with anything that is not romance related. (He'd kill at Disney).
- Yajnaseni said...
I think you're right. Thinking about it, Ashu needed a more skilled dialogue writer for that scene. 'Upar laaya jaaye', 'Dobaara phenka jaaye' is hardly bone-chilling stuff. But I'm still worried that I didn't find it funny :(
