61 Meetup Groups match "Spanish Classes" near Venice, CA
This is a group for whoever wants to get together to learn more about the Spanish Language, Spanish speaking countries and Latino culture overall. Classes can be expensive, but I have found that a group environment is important in learning and practicing Spanish. So I created this group as an alternative. Other Spanish speaking meetup groups exist in the area, but none in Redondo/Hermosa Beach. (So if you live in an area 30 minutes away or more, you should check your area first, although whoe …

This group is for all parents of young children who are interested in nurturing an early learning of the Spanish language in their children. "Early research suggested that learning two languages in early childhood is detrimental to a child's cognitive abilities. This was due to the idea that the two languages were learned independently and the knowledge of learning one did not transfer into the other". I am a working mom of a adventurous 6 year old, and have tried to join other mommy groups, but …

dotarray writes "The world's first professional StarCraft II gamer has been granted a five-year pro athlete visa for the United States, making Kim 'viOLet' Dong Hwan the first of his kind. viOLet was one of the first gamers to apply for the P-1A visa when they were introduced in July. The new paperwork doesn't mean that he can live permanently in the U.S., but it does mean he'll be treated like other (more traditional) athletes, able to easily enter the country temporarily to participate in tournaments."
walterbyrd writes "A team of engineers at Microsoft Research have developed a high-tech bra that's intended to monitor women's stress levels and dissuade them from emotional over-eating. The undergarment has sensors that track the user's heart rate, respiration, skin conductance and movement — all of which can indicate the type of stressful emotions that lead to over-eating, according to Microsoft researchers. The data is sent to a smartphone app, which then alerts users about their mood."
Nerval's Lobster writes "News changes during holidays. It gets thinner and lighter and weirder as the hordes of writers and editors who produce the overwhelming flood of news, updates and infotainments go home to annoy friends and family rather than readers and advertisers. Top points in ridiculousness, however, go to the condo- and apartment-complex managers in Braintree, MA, who were inspired to become amateur zoo-geneticists by resident pet owners who not only refused to clean up after their pets, but challenged the apartment managers to prove it was their pets contributing the increasingly hazardous, unpleasant piles of doggie doo on apartment properties. Rather than put up with a neverending supply of potential EcoBot fuel on marring the landscaping, facilities managers took cheek swabs of all the dogs on the property and sent them to A Knoxville, Tenn. that provided DNA profiles under a program with the dignified name 'PooPrints.' Now, for a fee of only $60 per pooch, residential managers can confirm the provider of a pile of PooPrintable material by comparing the DNA in the dog with the DNA in the pile. 'Now you don't really have to worry about dog poop,' said one fan of the practical application of zoological genetic analysis. 'The grass is now ours again, we don't have to worry about it [poop], and that's a good thing.' Restraint is just as important as innovation, of course, so the building managers made a point of telling the AP reporter who wrote the story that they wouldn't extend the effort to identifying which pooch peed on which bush and when. 'That's a little more difficult. We are not going to tackle that.' Finally, in this holiday season, something to be thankful for." The city of Petah Tikva, Israel started a similar identification program in 2008.
cartechboy writes "If you're looking for bling, you can always count on Dubai. At the Dubai Motor Show this week, Lebanon-based W Motors unveiled what is billed as the world's first Arab-built super car. The Lykan Hypersport incorporates jewels and precious metals in its construction, suicide-style doors, and an interactive holographic display system. (Yes, drivers will be able to adjust radio volume via a holograph.) The 750 horsepower car accelerates to 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds and has a top speed of 245 mph. The cost: $3.4 million, but owners will also receive a Cyrus Klepcys watch, said to be valued at around $200,000. W Motors plans a whopping 7 units for production."
sciencehabit writes "Science Magazine has posted the 12 finalist videos from its annual Dance Your PhD contest. The contest asks scientists from around the world to send in videos of themselves interpreting their research in dance form. As usual, this year's finalists have gone all out with some wacky, fun, and just plain bizarre videos. You can vote for your favorite, with the winner and reader's choice announced on November 21."
Sockatume writes "The BBC is reporting that Dell's Latitude 6430u Ultrabooks have an interesting characteristic you won't find in any Macbook Air: the palm rest emits an odor like cat urine. An issue with a manufacturing process is thought to be to blame. Although Dell has assured potential customers that the issue has been fixed, reports in the Dell support forum indicate that units with the novel fragrance continue to ship out to users. Dell staff state that the palm rest will be replaced by Dell at no cost, but only if the unit is still under warranty."
Jah-Wren Ryel writes "Florida's hanging chads ain't going nothing on Azerbaijan. Fully a day before the polls were to open, election results were accidentally released via an official smartphone app, confirming what everybody already knew — the election was rigged from the beginning. The official story is that the app's developer had mistakenly sent out the 2008 election results as part of a test. But that's a bit flimsy, given that the released totals show the candidates from this week, not from 2008."
Hugh Pickens DOT Com writes "Computer Scientist Daniel Lemire has had an interesting discussion going on at his site about the ideas in software that are universally recognized as useful. 'Let me put it this way: if you were to meet a master of software programming, what are you absolutely sure he will recommend to a kid who wants to become a programmer?' Lemire's list currently includes structured programming; Unix and its corresponding philosophy; database transactions; the 'relational database;' the graphical user interface; software testing; the most basic data structures (the heap, the hash table, and trees) and a handful of basic algorithms such as quicksort; public-key encryption and cryptographic hashing; high-level programming and typing; and version control. 'Maybe you feel that functional and object-oriented programming are essential. Maybe you think that I should include complexity analysis, JavaScript, XML, or garbage collection. One can have endless debates but I am trying to narrow it down to an uncontroversial list.' Inspired by Lemire, Philip Reames has come up with his own list of 'Things every practicing software engineer should aim to know.'"
An anonymous reader writes "Ratting someone out' just became much more literal. Dutch police are using trained rats to help keep the streets clean. 'Detective Derrick and his rat partners cost just £8 each and are capable of being trained to identify an impressive range of odors—including drugs and explosives—within ten to 15 days. In contrast, a police dog costs thousands of pounds and requires a minimum training period of eight months. The training procedure is straightforward: the rats are kept in a cage with four metal tea strainers attached inside, one of which contains gunpowder. When the rat recognizes the smell, it is rewarded with a "click" and a small treat. Eventually the rat will learn to move towards the smell instantly. In a demonstration it takes Derrick just two seconds to locate the offending odor."
cartechboy writes "Whether its the Mayan calendar, a rough economy, or a fear of zombies, there are people who are currently preparing for the end of the world, coming, like, soon. And they can attract some fringe elements. So maybe those elements are worth a little truck marketing. Yesterday at the Texas State Fair, Chevrolet unveiled a "Black Ops" concept truck that it says will "explore the extremes of preparedness." The truck comes with a vault storage unit, solar power pack, gas masks, gloves, a military first aid kit, a folding shovel, a generator and some rope. Twinkies apparently not included."
solareagle writes "The BBC reports that an Alaskan airport says it has had to place barricades across one of its taxiways after an Apple Maps flaw resulted in iPhone users driving across a runway. The airport said it had complained to the phone-maker through the local attorney general's office. 'We asked them to disable the map for Fairbanks until they could correct it, thinking it would be better to have nothing show up than to take the chance that one more person would do this,' Melissa Osborn, chief of operations at the airport, told the Alaska Dispatch newspaper. The airport said it had been told the problem would be fixed by Wednesday. However the BBC still experienced the issue when it tested the app, asking for directions to the site from a property to the east of the airport. By contrast the Google Maps app provided a different, longer route which takes drivers to the property's car park."
An anonymous reader writes "From the Register, "Multiple NASA websites were defaced last week by a Brazilian hacktivist who may have misread the sites' URLs, because he wasn't protesting about the US space agency giving joyrides to inhuman stowaways – he was protesting against NSA spying. 'BMPoC' hit kepler.arc.nasa.gov and 13 other sites with messages protesting against US spying on Brazil, as well as a possible US military intervention in Syria. It's hard to believe anyone would confuse the NSA spy agency with NASA, the space agency, except for satirical purposes or to mock script kiddies in some way, so we can only guess that the hackers behind the attack hit NASA because it's a US government agency whose systems are noted for being insecure.""
Hugh Pickens DOT Com writes "Mary Am Shah reports in the Toronto Sun that 26-year-old Blair McMillan has banned any technology in his house post-1986, the year he and his girlfriend Morgan were born. They're doing it because their kids – Trey, 5, and Denton, 2 – wouldn't look up from their parents' iPhones and iPads long enough to kick a ball around the backyard. 'That's kind of when it hit me because I'm like, wow, when I was a kid, I lived outside,' says Blair adding that now 'we're parenting our kids the same way we were parented for a year just to see what it's like.' The McMillans do their banking in person instead of online. They develop rolls of film for $20 each instead of Instagramming their sons' antics. They recently traveled across the United States using paper maps and entertaining their screaming kids with coloring books and stickers, passing car after car with TVs embedded in the headrests and content infants seated in the back. Their plan is to continue living like it's 1986 until April 2014. Morgan, who admits she thought her boyfriend was 'crazy,' now devours books to pass the time and only uses a computer at work. 'I remember the day before we started this, I was a wreck and I was like I can't believe I have to delete my Facebook!' Blair originally experienced a form of phantom pain for the first few days after giving up his cellphone. 'The strangest thing without having a cellphone is that I could almost feel my pocket vibrating and I wanted to check my pocket.' Still Morgan says the change has been good for their family's spirit. 'We're just closer, there's more talking,'"
angry tapir writes "In a new twist on strange brew, an Intel engineer has showed off a project using wine to power a microprocessor. The engineer poured red wine into a glass containing circuitry on two metal boards during a keynote by Genevieve Bell, Intel fellow, at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco. Once the red wine hit the metal, the microprocessor on a circuit board powered up. The low-power microprocessor then ran a graphics program on a computer with an e-ink display."
coondoggie writes "f you've ever wondered if you could fly just by holding onto a bunch of helium balloons over your head, well then you might understand where Accenture IT Technical Projects Manager Jonathan Trappe is coming from. Trappe today set out today from Caribou, Maine to cross 2,500 miles of Atlantic Ocean using 370 helium balloons slung under a small gondola. According to a DailyMail.com story, Trappe is relying on state-of-the-art weather data from the meteorologist who advised Felix Baumgartner on his record-breaking skydive from the stratosphere last year. The latest weather reports before the launch suggested winds would take Trappe to western Europe, though the exact destination would be hard to predict." Update: 09/13 14:08 GMT by S : The attempt is already over and unsuccessful. Trappe landed safely in Newfoundland, saying he was having trouble controlling the balloons.

By Dan Shapley Email Print Comments 0 Share Back 3 of 10 Next Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Kathrin Ziegler / Getty Images Back Next View Larger View Thumbnails 2. Use Fans Strategically The fact is, many people don't know how to use fans effectively. Here are three ways fans can help: Ceiling fans can create a pleasant breeze to cool a room significantly. Be sure that you have the fan running in the right direction since ceiling fans can also be used in winter to create an updraft: in the summer, you should feel the breeze blowing down. And remember, ceiling fans cool people, not rooms, so turn it off when you leave the room. If you're buying new ceiling fans, make sure you buy Energy Star ceiling fans that use 50% less energy than comparable models a choice that will pay off in the long run, as you can appreciate the longer you keep your fan running. Stand-alone fans placed directly in front of you, it's no surprise, help keep you cool. Add in a spritz bottle and you can dramatically change your temperature; as the water evaporates off your skin, your body sheds heat. A DIY wind tunnel is the third option; if there's a cool breeze, particularly at night, set one fan facing in on the side of your home receiving the wind, and another facing out on the opposite end of the house. You'll maximize the cooling power of a natural breeze.

Liver disease is any condition that causes liver inflammation or tissue damage and affects liver function. The liver is a vital organ located in the upper right-hand side of the abdomen. It is as large as a football, weighs 2-3 pounds, and performs numerous functions for the body: converting nutrients derived from food into essential blood components, storing vitamins and minerals, regulating blood clotting, producing proteins and enzymes, maintaining hormone balances, and metabolizing and detoxifying substances that would otherwise be harmful to the body. The liver makes factors that help the human immune system fight infection, removes bacteria from the blood, and makes bile, which is essential for digestion.
Bile, a greenish-yellow fluid consisting of bile acids or salts and waste products such as bile pigments, flows through small bile ducts inside the liver. The bile moves from these small ducts into larger ones, like streams into a river, eventually converging into the common bile duct and exiting the liver. Some of the bile flows directly to the duodenum; the rest is stored and concentrated in the gallbladder. After a person eats, the gallbladder, a fist-sized organ that sits next to the liver, releases some of the stored bile into the small intestine, where it helps to digest fats.
What is liver disease?
Liver disease is categorized both by the cause and the effect it has on the liver. Causes may include infection, injury, exposure to drugs or toxic compounds, an autoimmune process, or a genetic defect that leads to the deposition and build-up of damaging substances such as iron or copper. Effects may include inflammation, scarring, obstructions, clotting abnormalities, and liver failure. The following table summarizes some types of liver disease. The links lead to more information about the various types.
Type of Liver Disease | Description | Examples of Causes/Conditions |
Acute liver failure | Rapid decrease in liver function | Drugs, toxins, a variety of liver diseases |
Autoimmune-associated | The body produces an inappropriate immune response against itself; sometimes develops antibodies against own liver tissue | PBC (Primary biliary cirrhosis), PSC (Primary sclerosing cholangitis), Autoimmune hepatitis |
Budd-Chiari syndrome | Blood clots impede blood flow from the liver; symptoms such as ascites, enlarged liver, jaundice, and abdominal pain can develop | Hypercoagulable disorders, liver injury, cancer, parasitic infection |
Cirrhosis | Scarring of liver tissue leads to decreased liver function | Can be caused by a variety of conditions but usually a result of chronic hepatitis, alcoholism, or chronic bile duct obstruction |
Genetic | Gene mutations can lead to liver damage, disease; relatively rare conditions | Hemochromatosis, Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, Wilson's disease |
Hepatitis | Acute or chronic liver inflammation | Viruses, alcohol abuse, drugs, toxins, autoimmune, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) |
Infections | Certain infections can cause various degrees of liver damage, blockage of bile ducts | Viral hepatitis, Parasitic infection |
Liver cancer | A cancer that originates in the liver | Increased risk with cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis; hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is most common primary liver tumor |
Obstruction of bile ducts | Complete or partial blockage of bile ducts | Tumors, gallstones, inflammation, trauma |

Tip of the Week: Edible weeds?
Although weeds may be pesky plants in the garden, in the culinary world, they are making a comeback as edible wild greens. Plants like dandelion, lambsquarters and nettle are showing up in soups, casseroles and salads in gourmet restaurants. Tasty, low in calories and high in vitamins –– including disease-fighting phytochemicals –– find wild green at your local farmers market and add them to your menu at home.

Wise to the Word: mascarpone cheese
[mas-kar-POHN, mas-kahr-POH-nay] Hailing from Italy's Lombardy region, mascarpone is a buttery-rich double-cream to triple-cream cheese made from cow's milk. It's ivory-colored, soft and delicate, and it ranges in texture from that of a light clotted cream to that of room-temperature butter. It's versatile enough to be blended with other flavors and is sometimes sold sweetened with fruit.

text: Lindsey: I ran the Ascent in 2011 and was in full swing to run the Ascent again last year when I got injured. I've been to Manitou Springs 3 times now to run the Garden of the Gods and train on Barr Trail. You will need to get in some trail time to get used to running on uneven surfaces. As far as trails go, Barr is relatively non-technical but to pass people on race day you have to run the fringes. The 1 & 1 suggestion is right from Matt Carpenter - see his web site. Try and do a tempo run on the treadmill and either vary the pace or incline such that you run for 1 minute at 5 beats per minute above your threshold or lactate balance heart rate with the next minute at 5 bpm below threshold. Work up to doing 40 minutes of this. Some stair work or steep power hiking is also advisable. Laslty if you can - find some altitude. I've been to the top of Pikes 5 times now and hiked the Nevado de Colima (also a 14er) twice and while the effects are reduced, I still feel the altitude. Cheers and enjoy - this is an awesome event! Phil In response to: Thanks so much for the input Milton. I took your advice and ended up putting together a plan with hills, trail runs, running some awesome stairs near where I live, yoga, incline treadmill runs, and regular old flat runs. Last time I ran PPM, I did a couple treadmill simulations of the ascent and will do that again as well. In response to: You can follow a typical marathon training program with a couple of exceptions. 1) Add a little time to your long runs. Consider how long you think it will take you to finish and go from there. However, the time might be skewed, comparatively, for front-of-the-pack and mid-pack runners. It would be beneficial for a 5-hour Pikes marathoner to run a 4-to-5-hour long run in training. It wouldn't be beneficial, in my opinion, for an 8-hour Pikes marathoner to run an 8-hour long run in training. You might want to consider anywhere from 4 to 6 hours for a peak long run (with walking of course) regardless of your expected finishing time. 2) You have to train for strength. Once a week, do body weight leg exercises like air squats, lunges, box jumps, etc. Add a weight vest if you're advanced. Also once a week, try to run a hilly route at a good pace, either tempo run/intervals or fast hiking. An example week would be Tuesday run an easy run and do leg exercises, Thursday run hills, Saturday long run. If hills are minimal in your area, use the treadmill. I'll go to the gym and run 3-4 miles outside, go inside and hop on a treadmill with the incline at 12% and run 30 min either tempo or 1/1 intervals, and go back outside to do a 3-4 mile cool down. Apart from strength and more endurance (ability to stay on your feet), it's just like training for a regular marathon.

Happy Thanksgiving to you & your family! Remember today is a day of giving thanks for all the wonderful things we have in our life here in America!
Hope you have a wonderful holiday time with your family. Maybe you won't have too much snow while you are there.
Hi Chuck, are you still down in FL. enjoying our great weather? You know the snowbirds are here when the Moose Lodge is full on a Wednesday at 5pm & they are still there & dancing at 8pm. Usually everyone is gone by 7:30pm & it's not really full the rest of the year.
Chuck, the photos don' save you a trip, you have to see it for yourself.. have a nice day.
Glad to see you made it back to FL. We've really had nice weather the past couple of weeks.
Thanks Chuck. Congratulations on posting for 1300 consecutive days, also 2.2 MM points, very good. YB. Shep.

The location is great as it is right by the A14, the accommodation was to the usual premier inn standard. The staff were friendly and helpful and provided a wake up call. The breakfast was also very good and conveniently located next door in the pub.

New certification specs by the end of the year
Half a year has passed and now it's time to start updating certification test specifications again. Specs are updated twice a year, to make sure that all requirements are adequate to real life. Specifications evolve under the eyes of the entire Skype developer community and everyone is welcome to contribute their suggestions for improvement. To give your input, please log in to DevZone and add your suggestions and concerns to the Test Specs 8.01 discussion page. From now you have three weeks to do it.
The first round of input gathering ends on October 26, and the first draft of the next version of test specifications will be published on November 9. Then you'll have another two weeks to discuss it, and if there are ideas that lead to significant changes in draft then on November 30 another discussion draft will be published. On December 7 we will publish the release candidate of the new specs which will take effect on January 2, 2008.
All software certification requests submitted after end of year 2007 will be tested against the new specs. Note that if you want to add or change something in the specs but do not express yourself now, the next opportunity will be in spring 2008.

I'm left with no recourse.
I can not make calls to telephones.
I can not top up my account.
You, Skype, do not respond to my support request.
And furthermore you are threatening to take my money from my account. How dare you.
What is going on? Your immediate response is expected.

UPDATED: Friday, June 15th at 10:30 AM – Since the photo of Berlin's 'Forest Boy' has been released, friends and the apparent step-mother have come forward saying he is, in fact, 20-year-old Robin VH. According to the step-mother, Robin left his home and was last seen on September 2nd, 2011 near Hengelo.
A school friend told Dutch broadcaster NOS: 'I am certain that is Robin. He had personal problems and that was his way of beginning a new life.'
Robin had told authorities that his father had died in the woods, when he was actually still alive. Ironically, shortly after he left his home, Robin's father did pass away and he was unaware because he had no contact with anyone from his past life.
UPDATED: Wednesday, June 13th at 2:02 PM – The first photo of Ray has been released in an effort to find out more. Apparently there is still skepticism as to whether "Ray" actually lived in the woods for 5 years or not because he seems to be adapting to technology rather well. He is also well-kept as far as his nails and teeth are concerned. Authorities are hoping that someone might recognize the young man's photo and be able to offer them some answers.
A young boy about the age of seventeen, had arrived at the Berlin City Hall on September 5th, with only a rucksack and a sleeping bag. This blond hair, blue-eyed, English-speaking, athletic boy had said that he had been living in the Woodlands in Germany for 5 years, with his father, Ray.
Apparently, the boy and his father had going into the woods after his mother, Doreen, had passed away. They stayed in a tent for a while, but when it got cold, began to make dugouts. The young man had set that his father told him to head North to Berlin if anything were to happen to him, which is what led to the boy's arrival. He told authorities that his father had passed away about 2 weeks earlier and he buried him under a stone.
Again, this boy was speaking fluent English and knew very little German. He was also very healthy for having lived in the woods for nearly five years. Although they haven't yet discovered the boy's identity, they are currently looking into it as well as checking the Missing Person's Database.
I am looking forward to hearing more about this and whether it's actually an elaborate plan for the kid to get away with murdering his parents and starting a new life. Either way, I am very intrigued and plan to find out more.

My husband and I stayed here the one night in September and were amazed. Friendly staff, told us we could take bicycles to town free of charge. We expected a single room with 1 bed. We got a 2 bedroom with kitchenette. And the upstairs bedroom was a King size bed with a Jacuzzi tub. I could not believe it... More

The split squat is used to strengthen the hips, quadriceps, glutes and ankles.
Hold a pair of dumbbells at each side of your torso. Place your left foot on an exercise bench or chair and stagger the right leg in front of the torso. With your hands on your waist, bend your right knee so that your thigh is parallel to the ground. Do not let the knee go past your toes. Keep the weight in your right heel, and keep your torso lifted during the descent and ascent of this exercise. Repeat this exercise on the other leg.
Do 20 reps on each side.

"It was huge, but not bad at all"Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu joulu 5, 2012
This Hyatt Regency is a huge building where you may get lost twice before finding the elevator to your room floor. Other than that, the room was very nice and the quiet in the night. The best part was the room rate, that was less than half of what I paid at Hilton a couple of days earlier on the same Poydras street.

Love the that the hotel location was in a quiet area. I was very impresses how clean the room was,the sheets were crisp and clean,and the towels were like new which was very impressing. The only reason i did not rate it a 5 is because my room one day was not cleaned and for a few days though they were cleaning they did not t change the bedding.

"A Great Location Away From The Action"
The hotel lobby is very beautiful and inviting. Décor colorful with art displayed throughout the lobby. We were greeted with a glass of cocktail upon our arrival and the staff welcomed us with warm sentiments. Check-in was with ease and our room was ready when we got there. We stayed for four days and did not have any issues or complaints during the […] stay. We did not experience any excessive noises such as door slamming, loud talking from other guests, etc. Our room was clean. I am one that normally ask for a complete change of beddings (especially comforters/blankets/duvet) whenever I check into my room at a hotel. I did not do so at this one. The duvet was white and smelled very fresh. No stains found. LisätietojaAito Expedian asiakkaan arvostelu

"Very upscale hotel with lovely staff."
The valets really made our stay. They were so informative about the city and even told us where to order pizza at 1am. They were friendly and made sure we were having a good time every time we came back to the hotel. The room was clean and very modern with beautiful painted brick walls and huge windows. The windows do not open and we did not have a […] balcony though. No FREE wifi. The only way to get internet was to pay almost $14 a day! That was ridiculous especially since we needed the internet to use our tablet to look up things to do. We did not use room service because it ended every night at 11pm and we were no where near the hotel at that time. A few things were under construction so we did not get to use all the amenities. The rooftop pool was nice and gave a beautiful view of the city. The exercise room looked very updated, but I did not use any of the machinery..I was on vacation! This hotel is located in the Central Business District which is smack in the middle of all the surrounding neighborhoods. Cabs are cheap so we could go anywhere for under $10 a cab ride. Quite area even though many bars are in walking distance. Good price for peace and quiet away from the rowdy college kids and tourists that stay on Bourbon Street. Overall I really enjoyed our stay.

"it was ok"
Best part of the hotel was the bartender at the bar who was very awesome. We stayed on the third floor where there were a lot of painting and cleaning being done,which was not very appealing. The bathroom to the room was very tiny, like a motel. The room was very clean but small. A bit pricey for the size and amenities of the room. The rooftop pool […] was nice but the Jacuzzi needed cleaning. The fitness room was very nice. And the valet guys downstairs were very cool. Especially Kentrell. They may easily be stero-typed, but they were great guys! LisätietojaAito Hotels.comin asiakkaan arvostelu
The hotel is beautiful, the room was clean, comfortable, and nicely appointed, and all of staff members were knowledgeable and very helpful. The event I was attending (at another location) was very large and busy, and the hotel served as an oasis that I could come home to at night to relax. It is located in a quiet area that didn't have many pedestrians […] while I was there (although there are restaurants, offices, and galleries nearby). As a woman traveling alone I'd probably use a cab to get around late at night, but I was reasonably comfortable walking to the convention center, French Quarter, and nearby attractions from early morning to dark.

The Renaissance Arts Hotel in New Orleans provided a nice landing spot during a recent conference. Because of the price, I did not stay in the conference hotel but chose to stay a few blocks away in the Renaissance. It was a good choice.

"Warehouse Gem"
The Renaissance is my "go to" hotel every time I need a hotel in New Orleans. It is located in the Warehouse District and is within walking distance of the French Quarter and the Superdome. There are also a number of great restaurants around the area. If you plan to stay here on the weekend then I suggest that you get a room that does not face Tchoupitoulas […] St because some of the locals like to speed down the street in their cars and motorcycles and make a lot of noise.

"Dissapointing for a four star hotel"
The food in the restaurant was inedible. They were serving people food that was beyond stale (rock hard croissants, old muffins, tasteless fruit, etc.) It was shameful and the manager was embarrassed when we told her about it. Also room service was terrible. I had to call twice to remind them about my order as they just take the orders and then forget […] about them. Also, the free internet which is provided in the lobby does not work. I wouldn't return to this hotel. The only thing that was good about the hotel was the cleanliness of the rooms, that's it.

Weekend getaway with my girlfriend. Everything within walking distance and the hotel staff was great. Except for housekeeping. Our room wasn't clean during the next day of our stay, so we had to call downstairs to receive clean towels.

Hotel staff was friendly, nice and helpful whenever there was a request or need. The room had very comfortable beds and all necessities (coffee maker, iron etc.) Really, I have no negatives to report […] about my stay at this hotel.

The location is between the CBD and the warehouse district, and there are probably 15 restaurants within a five block walk; go in any direction for great food that only New Orleans can deliver, consistantly.

RUGBY: Awcock to face employers in Welsh friendly
10:10am Friday 30th August 2013 in Rugby
ALAN Awcock will line up against his London Welsh employers tom-orrow, having appear-ed for them in their first two warm-up matches.
Awcock, from Chilton, near Wantage, has been named on the wing for Henley Hawks, who host the Exiles in a 3pm kick-off at Dry Leas.
His selection adds to an eventful summer for Welsh's community development officer, who is now training with their first team.
The former Grove RFC junior and King Alfred's School, Wantage pupil signed for Henley this summer after playing for Newport in the Welsh Premiership.
"I think there are still a few faces who are a bit unsure why I'm involved at London Welsh, but hopefully I'll get the chance in another game or two and will be able to prove my worth," said Awcock.
"I enjoy playing rugby, I've played it all my life so it's nice to be able to play in that professional level and be part of what will hopefully be a successful team."
The idea of Awcock, who has also played for England Students, training with the Welsh first team was initially muted at the club's golf day last month.
Awcock returned from a week's holiday to go straight into training twice a week.
"It was obviously a step up from what I'm used to, but I've been in a professional environment before where I've trained full-time," he said.
"So I know what's expected, but to be asked to train with the club after working for it was an honour."
Awcock should play a big role for Henley as they adjust to life in National 1, but a strong performance tomorrow will also keep him in the thoughts of Welsh head coach Justin Burnell.
"I don't know if I'll be involved in any further London Welsh games, but I've been asked to continue training with the squad, so I'll just get my head down and keep working hard," he said.
On the flipside, fly half Will Robinson will be playing for Welsh against Henley, having helped Hawks win promotion last season.
Robinson signed for the Exiles this summer after being on loan from Wasps at Henley last season.
He said: "It was a great experience; all the lads there were smashing and I'm really looking forward to going back. It will be like a home game for me.
"It's a good rugby track, especially on a sunny day. It's nice and flat and it's good for running rugby.
"Henley are a team that run everything and their fitness is good – Saturday will be a good test for us.
Henley Hawks: O'Neill, Andre, Nutt, Allen, Awcock, Comben, Carter, Manning Dwyer, Penny, Clements, McNally, Woodward, Long, Payne. Reps: Maddocks, Milford-Scott, Church, Wells, Gillespie, Baggett, Bloxham, Bruce, Stapley, Haynes.
- FORMER British & Irish Lions captain, broadcaster and London Welsh Male Voice Choir president Cliff Morgan has died after a long illness, aged 83.
- LONDON Welsh will play their opening British & Irish Cup fixture with London Scottish at Newbury RFC.
The Exiles will use Newbury's Monks Lane ground for the October 12 clash, but their league games will be at the Kassam Stadium.

I'll never forget my first Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band concert. I'd been warned it was part revival, part rock concert, part rave, but I was simply not prepared for the love that poured from the stage.Bruce and his band of New Jersey rockers feel and interpret music in a way that oozes off the stage and into your bloodstream and there's nobody more in love with live music than Bruce and Clarence Clemens.
At 6'4" Clemens is the largest presence on the stage, and the man with the biggest heart. His sax is an extension of the joy of the E street band. Clemens has been with Springsteen since the early 70's and as Bruce says, "I have seen the future of the whole f'ing thing and it is the Big Man, Claren Clemens." When Clemens takes the stage for his saxophone solo, there is reverent silence.
sending that same grace to Clemens today, after learning he suffered a
serious stroke at his Florida home. The recent news says Clemens is
on the left side. Hang in there Clarence.
Send healing wishes to Clarence: firstname.lastname@example.com
We love you, the minister of
soul, the secretary of the Brotherhood, the Big Man.

Hartford, Boston, Cambridge, and Rockport
We woke up in Providence, hungry. The night before, we had met a house full of lovely people, at a potluck we weren't sure would even happen. Such a good night. But we were hungry, and we had to start driving again. Time for breakfast.
People often ask me how we find places where I can eat safely when we travel. It's a combination of things, really. I ask on Twitter and Facebook. I look at Yelp. (But I always feel like I need a shower afterwards, from some of the terrible writing and vituperation there.) And mostly, I google everything until the name of a restaurant shows up in several searches and I start to sense, "Go there."
But in Providence, it was pretty easy. Go to Nick's on Broadway! In February, we three ate one of the best breakfasts of our lives at that extraordinary place. We were about to drive there when I googled one more time. Closed that day. Damn. Next on the list? Amy's Place, which had the distinct advantage of being three minutes from our hotel. Why not? There would be hot coffee.
It turned out to be much better than that. The folks at Amy's were friendly and completely conversant with how to feed me safely. They gave me something I have not eaten in a long time: cream cheese, lox, red onions, and capers. All on a dark, dense gluten-free bread. Who needs bagels?
(Well, we're working on good gluten-free bagels for the next cookbook.)
That's one of my favorite parts of traveling, the little surprising bites that arrive at the table in a cafe I've never seen before, and will probably never visit again. Those meals stay indelible in the mind.
