Q. Why should we care about Mexico?
A. Perhaps no other country affects the United States on a day-to-day basis as much as Mexico. The two nations have always been linked by their shared two thousand mile border, but the nature of this relationship has broadened and deepened over the last three decades. Today energy, the environment, corporations, supply chains, people, communities, and security bind the two nations together, making them truly indivisible, and Mexico's path forward matter more than ever for its northern neighbor. The challenge ahead is for Mexico and the United States to work together to strengthen the good and diminish the bad in this close but still unequal relationship.
Q. So what is happening next door?
A. Mexico has transformed over the last three decades, mostly in good ways. It is now a vibrant, if at times messy, democracy. It has an open and globally competitive economy, and it has a growing middle class. Yet alongside these many positive trends, Mexico faces a crisis of violence. Over the last six years newspaper counts put the drug related death toll at over 60,000, and some independent analysts estimates tens of thousands more. The question now is where will Mexico head – what path will it take in the twenty-first century. Can Mexico reach its real potential – becoming a top ten world economy, a market-based democracy, a strong ally for the United States and a leader among emerging countries; or will it be consumed by instability, corruption, and crime.
Q. What can the United States do?
A. Working together means not just a new set of policies but also a larger shift--to a true partnership. It should start with people, and reforming immigration laws to support rather than shun the binational individuals and communities that already exist¬ and link the two nations. It means embracing and deepening economic ties, recognizing that a rising tide can lift all boats. And it requires shifting U.S. security cooperation to move beyond drug trafficking to focus on reducing the general crime and violence afflicting Mexico's people. In this the United States will need to take a hard look at its own drug, gun, and money laundering policies, and consider the bilateral effects of domestic decisions.
Q. How will Mexico affect the United States?
A. Whether we like it or not, the direction Mexico takes now affects not just Mexico's citizens but also Americans. And while there is much to lose, there is much more to gain. In fact, Mexico is less a problem and more an answer for the economic, security, and diplomatic challenges the United States faces today.
The author's basic premise is that the relationship between these two neighboring countries has a huge potential, one that Mexicans recognize but Americans do not. Read morePublished 10 days ago by carlos denton

Cute hat. Handmade so the horns are off ever so slight but love it all the same. Very unique hat.
I don't really know if this is handmade, but it looks like it. I mean that I would hope people will think it to be handmade because I think that is cooler. It is perfect quality and just what I expected. I can't wait for my son to wear it!

Hi-Tec® Altitude IV Waterproof Hiking Boots for Men 58 58
Durable Boot I bought my first pair of these boots approx. 6 or so years ago. Right out of the box they were comfortable, and break-in time was only a few days. I never abused them climbing mountains or hiking rough trails, but I did wear them almost every day. As with most well worn boots, the soles have worn thin...and a few months ago the outer-side (toe area) of the left boot blew out. Also...the factory waterproofing didn't hold up as long as I had hoped. All-in-all...I'd say I got my monies worth with these boots, and I just bought my second pair. December 5, 2014
My favorite boots I'm a General Contractor and do everything outdoors hunting atv,s .My kids tease me because I wear them every day and every where (except church) movies shopping etc . I've had 15 pairs or more . But my last pair were different mostly no arch support and I could feel every rock under my feet I'm going to buy one more pair I hope they keep me. I loved these boots altitudes December 1, 2014
on my third pair the only hiking shoe I buy. they last about two years of hard use (everyday in all kinds of terrain and weather). eventually i end up blowing a side out by my little toe but not the boot's fault. nothing lasts forever. (i even end up wearing them for a while after that happens) comfy from day one and good support with good tread. November 24, 2014
ouch Bought a pair last year in the fall.Used them for one winter and holes have developed in the bottoms and waterproof must have wore out too because my feet were getting soaked and cold every time I'd wear them. I had a pair of hi tecs which lasted almost 3 years but evidently someone decided to make them cheaper which means its time for me to move on and try another brand. November 23, 2014

Two More 'Lego' Movies Get Release Dates
Warners' Lego film franchise is heating up.
On Wednesday, the studio dated two untitled animated films for May 25, 2018, and May 24, 2019, the beginning of the lucrative Memorial Day weekend.
Insiders suggest there will be more follow-ups to this year's blockbuster The Lego Movie, which grossed $468 million worldwide earlier this year. They stress that things could always change, considering the dates are so far out.
The studio has already dated Lego 2 for May 26, 2017. It could be planning for a threequel for 2019, while a sequel to the Lego Ninjago spinoff could claim the 2018 date. (A first Ninjago film is already set for Sept. 23, 2016.)
The Lego Movie marked a crucial turning point for Warners, which has never had a strong foothold in the animation business. The film, which cost $60 million to produce, featured the voices of Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Liam Neeson and Morgan Freeman.
Producers Dan Lin and Roy Lee are shepherding the franchise for the studio.
It was a busy day for Warners as the studio provided a glimpse of its tentpole slate through 2020. Hours before, the studio announced it was moving Superman v Batman: Dawn of Justice from May 6, 2016, to March 25, 2016, to avoid a showdown with Captain America 3.
It also dated no fewer than nine untitled DC Comics titles, revealing that it will release two superhero movies a year beginning in 2016 in an aggressive effort to match rival Marvel Studios and Disney. The untitled batch of films is likely to include multiple Justice League titles and a Wonder Woman spinoff.

Tennis, love, peace come together at US Open final
NEW YORK Long after dust gathers on the U.S. Open trophy that barely eluded Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi, the message he sent on a grand stage in New York still will echo loudly.
After two sets of riveting tennis during which Pakistan's Qureshi and India's Rohan Bopanna came a scant few points short of winning the men's doubles title Friday, Qureshi was handed the microphone and given a chance to speak words that, in his mind, couldn't be said strongly enough.
"There's a bad perception that Pakistan is a terrorist nation," Qureshi told the crowd in 23,000-seat Arthur Ashe Stadium. "We're a friendly, loving, caring people. We want peace as much as you guys. May God bless us all."
He received a warm ovation from a crowd that included Bopanna's parents, who flew from India to New York for the match. And at that moment, it hardly seemed important that Qureshi and Bopanna had lost 7-6 (5), 7-6 (4) to Americans Bob and Mike Bryan, brothers who won their ninth Grand Slam tournament and third U.S. Open title.
About a half-hour later, the ambassadors of Bopanna's India and Qureshi's Pakistan - neighboring countries with a decades-long history of war, distrust and tension - placed 5,000-year-old ceremonial cloths over the shoulders of the Bryan brothers, who are donating money through their foundation to help victims of flooding in Pakistan that has affected more than 17 million people.
As they've been saying all week, Qureshi and Bopanna simply want to send some good news back to their homelands, where good news has been sorely lacking of late.
It was one of those moments when an athletic event means something more than a win and a loss.
"Sports will always play a certain role," Pakistani ambassador Abdullah H. Haroon said. "No matter how you look at it, this is bound to improve things. Because this is people to people, this is not governments to governments, which have reservations and other aspects. This is people to people. People have enjoyed it. It has created a tremendous boom."
Bopanna and Qureshi have been playing together since 2003, though the story of their peace partnership - "The Indo-Pak Express," as they call it - really gathered steam earlier this year when they started wearing sweat shirts with slogans reading "Stop War, Start Tennis" as part of a campaign backed by a group called Peace and Sport.
Hardly unnoticed on Friday was that their closing act in New York came on the eve of Sept. 11, with the city in the midst of a fractious debate about whether an Islamic center and mosque should be built near ground zero, and the country closely following the twists and turns of a Florida pastor's threat to burn copies of the Quran.
"Yes, I've been hearing about that," said Qureshi, who needed three hours to get through customs when he arrived in New York. "For me, you have to understand there are extremists in every religion. But those small groups or activists shouldn't justify the thinking that everyone is like them. Above all, everybody wants peace. Not everybody is an extremist. That's my message and hopefully everyone can understand that."

National Orders
The birth of a new non-racial and non-sexist democracy in South Africa necessitated a critical review of the system of National Orders. The previous system consisted of one Decoration and four Orders whose symbolic aesthetic was representative of the past.
Seeking to move away from the past, in May 1998, the newly-instituted President's Advisory Council on National Orders was given the task and responsibility to review the system of National Orders and awards. To implement the task, a technical committee was constituted which embarked on an extensive and inclusive research process that involved public consultations, interviews with stakeholders on a national scale, group discussions focusing on alternative systems, the commissioning of historical research and the gathering of jewellery and medal designers to design new medals through a design brief.
As part of this process, the then Department of Arts, Culture, Science and Technology in co-operation with the Government Communication and Information System investigated further symbols and symbolism in an attempt to capture the essence of a new aesthetic that will reflect the spirit of a new country. A panel of academics and specialists versed in indigenous symbols and symbolism was asked to identify key factors and elements that denote the collective and inclusive history and experience of Africa with South Africa as the main point of reference. The collective outcome of this process resulted in the commissioning and ultimate design of the new National Orders.
South Africa has taken many strides away from its past of exclusion and discrimination on the basis of sex, colour and creed. The country has been steadily moving forward in a direction that reasserts our humanity. In this march towards humanity, a new culture of human rights and a respect for the dignity of the human spirit have become characteristics of South Africa.
One of the symbolic moments of the exodus from the past was the raising of the new flag in 1994. This moment aptly affirmed the pride and dignity of an unfolding country and a celebration of humanity. Another was the unveiling of a new Coat of Arms on 27 April 2000 that embraced the collective historical essence of the people of the country. In so doing, a new aesthetic that takes consideration of Africa and her symbols became part of the new culture that informs a South African rebirth.
The new National Orders have been conceived in the spirit of that rebirth.
The Order of Mendi for Bravery
On 21 February 1917, the ship SS Mendi sank in the cold waters of the English Channel near the Isle of Wight, after being struck by another ship in an unfortunate naval accident. On board were more than 600 Black South African volunteer soldiers en route to France to assist in the Allied war effort during the First World War.
The soldiers, and their fellow White officers, having all assembled on deck of the badly listing ship and realizing their imminent death because the portside lifeboats had been rendered unusable, began to sing and perform a traditional death dance. Legend has it that they bravely resigned themselves to their fate and continued to sing before the vessel plunged to the seabed.

This Order is awarded to South African citizens for distinguished service. The service awarded is well above and beyond the ordinary call of duty. It is an award for exceptional and distinguished contributions in the following categories:
This Order can be awarded in three classes:
This Order finds its inspiration from the Baobab which is a tropical African tree. The origins of the name Baobab is part of the many rich legends and mysteries of Africa . It has probably been more often described than any other tree in Africa for, among other things, its vitality, and magical and symbolic value to indigenous people. The endurance and tolerance shown by the tree in growing old is reflective of the sustained and exceptional service to South Africa that is awarded by this Order. Similarly, the service rendered still ensures the enduring and growing status of South Africa .
The Baobab is an important element in many African agro forestry systems. It provides bark for cloth and rope, fruits for food and fuel, and many other useful products. The familiar, broad and strong protruding root system supports a massive tree commonly known as a place for many important meetings and protection in traditional African societies.

This Order can be awarded in three categories:
The triangular flint stone represents a basic tool of survival used by prehistoric ancestors to skin animals, construct shelters and cut strips of skin to make clothes.

The late Oliver Reginald Tambo played a central role in the freedom of struggle against Apartheid, and remains a true icon of our liberation history.
From an early age, Tambo rose through the ranks of the liberation movement. He was a founder member of the African National Congress Youth League (ANCYL) in 1944. In 1948, he was elected President of the Transvaal ANCYL and national vice-president of the ANCYL in 1949. In 1955, when the then Secretary General, the late Walter Sisulu, was banned in terms of the Suppression of Communism Act, it was Tambo who was appointed to fill this post. In 1958, Tambo was elected to the post of Deputy President of the ANC. Finally, in 1967, after the death of ANC President General Chief Albert Luthuli, Tambo was appointed acting President of the ANC, an appointment confirmed by the Morogoro Conference in 1969. He held this position until 1991 when he had to relinquish it due to ill health.
Tambo dedicated his life to overthrowing the Apartheid regime by mobilising fellow citizens to resist the Apartheid Government and relentlessly mobilizing world opinion against the odious Apartheid ideology and regime.
Tambo was known in the liberation movement for his gentle character and compassionate qualities. His benevolence and personal concern for the plight of freedom fighters and their conditions in the field endeared him to thousands of liberation fighters.
The Order of the Companions of O R Tambo is awarded in three categories to eminent foreign nationals and other foreign dignitaries for friendship shown to South Africa. It therefore concerned primarily with matters of peace, co-operation, international solidarity and support and is integral to the execution of South Africa's international and multilateral relations. The Supreme Companion of O R Tambo in gold, is awarded to those who have actively promoted the interests and aspirations of South Africa through excellent co-operation and active expression of solidarity and support. The Grand Companion of O R Tambo in silver is awarded to those who have actively promoted the interests and aspirations of South Africa through outstanding co-operation, solidarity and support. The Companion of O R Tambo in bronze is awarded to those who have actively promoted the interests and aspirations of the Republic through co-operation, solidarity and support.
This Order is awarded to foreign nationals (Heads of State and Government) and other foreign dignitaries. It is awarded for friendship shown to South Africa . It is therefore an order of peace, co-operation and active expression of solidarity and support. The Order constitutes an essential pillar of international and multilateral relations.
This Order can be awarded in three classes:
All the awards include four elements: a walking stick, a neck badge, a miniature and a lapel rosette. The last Order consists of three elements: a neck badge, a miniature and a lapel rosette.
OR Tambo: OR Tambo played a major role in the growth and development of the international movement of solidarity against racism and Apartheid. Among others, he established the first Missions of the liberation movement in Egypt , Morocco , Ghana and London . This was a modest start to bring the friends of South Africa together throughout the world in a continuous and sustained mobilisation of the international community in support of a free and democratic South Africa and against the evils of racism, oppression and Apartheid.
Majola (mole snake): The snake that visits babies when they are born. It never harms the baby or members of the family and the only friendly way to drive it away is for the mother to squirt it with her own breast milk. It visits the baby to prepare it for a successful and safe adult life. It comes as a friend and protector. The friendship it expresses is not anchored in a benign demonstration of goodwill but rather an active expression of solidarity and striving to support and encourage long-term success of the young and growing members of the human race. The snake lives on in African mythology because of a classical narrative called The wrath of the ancestors by AC Jordan. This narrative subverts the conventional notion of a snake as merely venomous and introduces a broader African interpretation that understands the serpent as a friend and a member of a dynamic ecology.
1. Walking stick- carved out of dark, indigenous wood it is a symbol of appreciation for the support and solidarity shown, and similarly a commitment to support and stand by the recipient in return.
1. Majola- the watchful eye with hooks at both the top and bottom symbolises recognition for the active expression of solidarity and support for South Africa .
2. A tomoye of four sections- is inspired by the universal ying and yang that speak of a meeting point for diverse spiritual energies.

A millennium ago, the amazing Kingdom of Mapungubwe existed in the northern corner of South Africa. It comprised a sophisticated state system, with highly developed agriculture, mining, and metallurgy industries. The Kingdom traded with countries as far afield as China. According the Archaeology Department at the University of the Witwatersrand, Mapungubwe represented 'the most complex society in Southern Africa'. It is reputed to be the origin of the people, culture and foundation for the achievements of Great Zimbabwe.
Mapungubwe Hill is a sandstone hill located on a mudstone deposit in the northern part of the Limpopo province, known for its arid subtropical climate and erratic summer rains. Out of this seeming barrenness, like an oasis in the desert, there blossomed the complex and highly developed state and culture, centred around a thriving town built on and around Mapungubwe Hill, which served as the capital of the ancient Mapungubwe Kingdom.
The Order of Mapungubwe is awarded to South African citizens for achievements that have impacted internationally and served the interests of the Republic of South Africa. The first and highest category of this Order is awarded in platinum for unique and exceptional achievement; which the second-highest category is gold. The third category in this order is sliver, awarded for excellent achievement; and the fourth is bronze for outstanding achievement.
This Order is awarded to South African citizens for excellence and exceptional achievement.
This Order can be awarded in three Classes:
Mapungubwe: The Mapungubwe Kingdom existed in the northern corner of our country a millennium ago. The Kingdom had a sophisticated state system and developed agriculture. It also developed a mining and metallurgy industry. The Kingdom traded with countries as far as China . During its time, it represented excellence of human thought and ingenuity.

Went downtown to enjoy a night out. Great location. Staff was great upon checking in. We aren't a very needy couple so didn't have to ask the staff for much.
The hotel reservations process would be much better if the fact that reserving your spot is not paying for the room. This part should be made very apparent. I was forced to pay cash for my room due to this mis-communication.
We did not use the shower in our room because it was disgusting. It was full of hair and some odd dried up brown sticky mess. Absolutely gross.... I said something to house keeping and she pretended to not here me and walked away. Hilarious!
Room cleanliness. Difficult to navigate. Paying for Wifi is wrong.
Staff attitude. Excellent and friendly.
Had a poor room experience: dirty towels left in room; used coffee filter pouch left in dirty pot; dusty room & dirty drawers; loud room HVAC system; non existent ventilation in bathroom; floor to ceiling windows were dripping with condensation; elevator cards/room cards didn't work & check-in lines were extremely long(120 feet) at one point.
60th floor, riverside view was amazing.
$311 for the room... But they still wanted us to pay $13 for wi-fi.... Disappointing!
Loved that we could see the river and ambassador bridge from our room. Also loved the seafood restaurant in the renissance center.
I forgot my key in my room. When I went to the front desk to let the lady at the front desk know she was very rude about it and used very limited conversation with me while giving me a dirty look. Accidents happen geeze!
Checked in had to walk 1/4 mile to get to room, then got there and room was dirty, ie not cleaned from last guest. Then had to go back to lobby and stand in line to wait for another room, which was very small for price we paid. Great view, but would not go back
I booked a riverview room and it was the most amazing view - I spent several hours in a chair that I pulled to the window, overlooking the city of Detroit and Canada on the other side of the river. It was just indescribable. The bed was fit for a queen (or king, whichever...), the facilities were clean, staff very helpful, kind and professional. I will be back!
Spectacular view. Very comfortable and close to comerica. Had a very enjoyable unforgettable experience.
Long line to check in.
Every staff member was nothing short of a pleasure. Friendly, helpful, genuine.
Despite being on a higher floor, street noise was very loud throughout the night. Difficult to sleep.
Location and service of staff
No microwave, refrigerator, or free internet in room
The staff was excellant and very professional. The location was perfect and the hotel very clean and up to date. I would definetely stay there again.
Very slow check-in.
the location, the view
the staff were terrible, the room wasnt ready, overall stressful experience
Clean, lots of towels and beautiful view!! Definitely coming back!
Great View Stop for People Mover
No coffee for coffee maker Space for mini fridge but no fridge No bell hop or carts Have to pay for wifi Staff is practically non existent The price is outrageous for the lack of amenities.
Excellent location, within walking distance to many attractions. People Mover conviently located withing Renaaissance Center.
No Fridge or Microwave in most of the guest rooms, BUMMER!!
Good location great views very nice hotel
The hotel was booked we had 4 people and had reserved a room with 2 double beds arrived to line that took an hour to get thru to check in..only room avail had one king bed was told would have a roll away brought up that still had not arrived by 11:30pm no one answered when called to front desk when went down to ask about bed was told did not have any ..said they would bring up extra blankets so kids could sleep on floor..at 1am after another call finally had one blanket 2 sets of sheets but not a 2nd blanket brought..said would bring back up at 2am gave up on ever seeing anyone again.
Location. Comfort. Views from the room.
Would have liked a brochure in the room telling about all of the business within the complex.
Great location
Was awaken in the morning by some noise. Looked like they did some repairs in the hotel. Breakfast buffet could have been better.
Paying for parking Paying for wi-fi hoilday inns and super 8's give you wi-fi even McDonalds No frig or mike in $190.00 room
Room service was quick and friendly. Check out was quick.
It was the worst check in that I have ever experienced. Staff was rude and lazy. Also I asked to be away from elevators and was put right next to elevator, which felt very purposeful and mean to me.
Location and easy access by car from Canada.
Lack of clear signage on lower levels

Truly a unique dining experience! Great food, great atmosphere and wonderful service. Hopefully we'll see one in California one day.
The most phenomenal dining experience I've ever had. The combination of atmosphere and incredible food made for a most unique and enjoyable dinner. I only wish I had the recipe for the cheese puffs and the sumptuous Papaya dessert. I must mention the best service I have ever received anywhere - bar none. I can't wait to visit the Chicago location as it's only a 2 1/2 hr drive from home.
WOW i love it i love it i love it!! is the best restaurant i ever been!!
It was awsome. I wish there was one in Raliegh, NC. I loved the salad bar.
This is the World Series of meat.
This place is my Disneyworld.
This is my favorite! The food is wonderful and the service is GREAT! What ever you all are doing keep doing it! I have recommended this restaurant to all my friends!
My dining experience was truly amazing. The ambiance was perfect and the wait staff exquisite. If you are a meat lover this is your nirvana. I will definetly recommend this restaurant to my friends.
My wife and I dine out quite a bit, and I have to say I haven't experienced this level of excellence in food and service in years! Like a lot of guys, I'm not a big salad eater, but the salad bar was amazing! I could have filled up on that alone. The meats were outstanding! I had dreams of juicy lamb chops all night! Fogo is a restaurant that stands out amongst all restaurants in Chicago. A must visit, and a definite return to.
My husband and I were taken to your wonderful restaurant for lunch by our friend Carlos, a native of Brazil. His description of what was waiting for us did not disappoint! Please bring this extraordinary concept to North Carolina!
Obrigado!!! In my first visit to Sao Paulo (and Brazil) I ate at your exquisite restaurant four times during my 7-day visit! The Picanha was absolutely addictive.I look forward to returning to Sao "Fogo" Paulo again soon! Iain Ronis 3/21/03
Unbelieveably excellent service and selection of food. The meats were tender, flavourful, and aromic. I wish they had this restaurant in Los Angeles, California.
I am a meat eater! I found the quality and the quantity of the food to be of an exceptional value and flavor. We ate and ate and could hardley stop ourselves, the food was that good. Being able to eat a freshly cooked right of the grill chunk of Grade-A steak was just fantastic. I would highly recomend anyone who enjoys copious quantities of meat well prepared with a great atmosphere to stop by the Fogo de Chao!
Love the food. Everything was perfect!!! The waitstaff and the servers of the meat were excellent!!!
Increible sabor y la calidad de la carne..... hummmmm de primera!!! felicitaciones!!!!!

Edward Olinger, MD is unique in the 21st Century. He is an acclaimed gastroenterologist. He is a super-star in the GI Lab. He is totally patient-centered. He takes phone calls. He LISTENS. He is patient. He provides full, detailed written reports of results. He is warm, kind and gentle. I just had an EGD and a Colonoscopy. It could not have gone better.McCarthy
Dr. Olinger is a unique specialist. He is a brilliant diagnostician who is not afraid to suggest conservative treatments, rather than just prescribing more meds. More importantly, he is a wise, caring and kind practitioner who genuinely cares about his patients. He takes phone calls during office hours when important and always promptly returns calls. He will squeeze you in for a visit even when booked and always follows up to see how you are doing. He gives you an immediate report on tests, such as colonoscopiesk, to minimize anxiety. He is a rare gem. I recommend him more highly than any other doc I have seen.

The Second Wave of Japanese Desktop Publishing
6 July 2003
The Japanese market has lagged somewhat behind the trend in Europe and America for the adoption of desktop workstations in the publishing industry, sticking with tried and tested proprietory systems to a very large extent.
In this extended feature article Joel Breckinridge, who has over 15 years experience of the Japanese design and prepress industries, looks at the reasons for this. He also takes a look at some breaking technologies which may mean that the workflows we take for granted in the West may soon enter the world of complex scripts – and even make a good job of adapting to the local demands involved.

WHAT CAN YOU SAY about a year that placed your company at the top of its industry on the Globe 100, and made it the 13th best-performing Massachusetts public company in 2011?
If you're the boss at Eaton Vance Corp., it was a mixed bag.
"I think about our performance last year as being decent, but not stellar,'' said Thomas E. Faust Jr., Eaton Vance's chief executive.
It was good enough to come out far ahead of the pack. In 2011 - a tough year for financial firms - the Boston-based mutual fund company had $1.2 billion in revenue, up 7 percent from the previous year. It also had $225 million in net income in 2011, up 36 percent despite the choppy market environment.
Still, Eaton Vance did not meet an important annual goal: to grow assets by 10 percent. Instead, the firm grew by 2 percent, and now has $197 billion in total assets.

One For All SV1740 USB Wireless Digital Audio Sender
Posted: 01/11/2009
When it arrived I eagerly opened up the box and plugged it all in, heard the 'ding-dong' of an attached USB device, watched as drivers were auto installed, and out comes good quality sound through my stereo at the other side of the room! I was jumping for joy cos I could finally get rid of the cable that drags around after my laptop.. the joy didn't last long though... on the second day of use, it lasted about 5 minutes before disconnecting. I tried again and again to reconnect, and each time it worked for about 5 mins. Today, day 3, it won't even connect. I'm gonna send it back and see if it was just a faulty unit... fingers crossed that the next one will work for a bit longer!
The USB transmitter is kinda flimsy and doesn't fill me with confidence.... Maybe on a desktop computer it'd be fine, but I don't think it'll survive long being attached/detached from a laptop....

The rats riding the ship of state breed too fast.
Submitted by Faithkills on Thu, 06/12/2014 - 16:05. Permalink
I want to kill the state.
I don't want to kill one single person who is part the state.
I just want them to get real jobs, and without a state they won't have any other option.
Even if you were willing to kill a lot of rats, which we are not, and could kill a lot of rats, which we can't, the ship is still there and will just fill up with rats again.
We need to scuttle the ship.

New Jersey native that vacationed only in two different beach towns in the US. West Yarmouth, Cape Cod and Seaside Heights, NJ. Still love them both.
Thank you very much for letting us spend time at your house in Seaside. I had a wonderful and relaxing trip.
"I stumbled upon this house while looking at beach homes from Pt. Pleasant to Seaside Park. It was new and just issued it's CO to the prior owner. Because of illness they were giving up the property that had been in their family for over 60 years. So I am only the 2nd owner. It is a peaceful area of an amusement town. Having four children the youngest only 1 yr old made this the perfect family vacation location. We furnished it for ourselves and then realized as the kids grew we counldn't come down the shore every weekend so we decided to rent it."
Seaside Heights ! too much to list. Short drive to Six Flags - Jackson, NJ

"Each time my children want to relieve themselves I take them out to the Vaigai riverbank. I even take them out at midnight," says S. Kavitha, a resident of Vaigai Vadakarai Pulianthope in the city.
That the area has two pay-and-use toilets of Madurai Corporation makes no difference to the residents.
"We cannot afford to pay each time to use the public toilet. Moreover, these toilets also face water scarcity most of the time," says B. Parimala, a resident of the same area for the past 15 years.
B. Selvi, her neighbour, recalls the Uttar Pradesh incident in which two minor girls, who went out to relieve themselves, were gang-raped.
"We always accompany our children when they go out to relieve themselves. It is not a very safe place for teenagers. When we are sick, we find it very difficult to go out with them," she says.
There is a free public toilet opposite E. Ekadesi's house in Vaigai Vadakarai, a few hundred metres away from Selvi's house. But it is of no use, she says. "It does not function ever since it was thrown open for public use a few years back. We have no idea why it remains there. It will be good if it is used," she adds. The toilet is home to a herd of cattle at present.
Her neighbour, M.K. Srinivasan, says the area has around 150 houses, but only a few of them have toilets. Others use the open space.
Open defecation is not an uncommon sight in Madurai. And it is not just the absence of toilets at houses that results in open defecation. Locked public toilets, improper maintenance and absence of water supply are a few reasons public attribute to not using corporation toilets.
V. Karthika of T.V.S. Nagar complains that she had never seen the public toilet in her area remain open. "It is always closed. Not once have I seen anyone using it," she says.
According to data provided by Madurai City Corporation, there are 252 toilets in the 100 wards, for a population of 15,73,616 men and women. Among them, 4,66,320 people live in notified and de-notified slums in the city. Several wards do not have public toilets, as per the data.
Officials say it is not mandatory that every ward should have public toilets. "There are several wards which do not require public toilets because every household has toilets. However, almost all the wards that have slums have public toilets," claims Yashodha Mani, City Health Officer.
L. Karthik, a medical representative, says the stench from the public toilets at Arapalayam is unbearable. "They collect fee to use the toilets, but the maintenance is very bad. In a crowded place like Arapalayam, the corporation authorities should take extra effort to maintain the toilets," he says.
Corporation authorities, however, claim that the toilets managed by self-help groups are well-maintained. "Most of the public toilets are given to the SHGs for maintenance. All these toilets are well-maintained. Water scarcity is the main reason for some of the toilets not being maintained properly," says Dr. Yashodha Mani.
The SHGs that maintain toilets face several issues. S.A. Umaiba, a member of Kalanjiyam SHG that maintains a public toilet in Thideer Nagar, says, "There are men who drink and leave the empty bottles inside. There are people in our area who break the lights inside the toilets. We try to solve the problems ourselves. When we can't we call the police."
However, the group braves the odds for the benefit of people like P. Kalpana who have no toilet at home. At least 30 houses in the area do not have toilets, says S. Jayalakshmi, another member of Kalanjiyam.
"Earlier, there was no one to maintain the public toilet and so it was in an unusable condition. Until four years ago, we had to go to either Periyar bus stand or to a deserted area near the railway line to relieve ourselves. After the SHG took over the maintenance, we are able to use the public toilet," Kalpana says.
While the well-maintained public toilets are a boon to the public, the fact that several areas do not have decent toilets is a major cause for lack of sanitation.
Corporation authorities say they conduct surveys and identified wards where open defecation is common. The toilets are constructed based on the requirement. City Engineer A. Mathuram says 40 toilets have been constructed in various wards in the past two years. Plans are on to construct 50 more, he adds.

Great hospitality, the staff very helpful; generous and delicious home cooking; good location. Would be happy to stay again.
Room is clean and comfortable. Breakfast is simple but not bad. Staff is friendly.
A bit far from Petra entrance and restaurants. Not a problem if you have got a rental car. If not, hotel only offer one way free transport to Petra in the morning. Expect to pay for a taxi ride when coming back.
The owner, mosleh, and all the staff went out of their way to help us get the most out of our trip to petra and wadi rum. We had home cooked traditional Jordanian food every night which was delicious and the rooms were clean, air conditioned and comfortable. Excellent stay
Too small single room; anyway, the room is only for sleeping!
One of the most friendly hotel i have ever stayed in. They make great home made food for dinner. Ask in advance for it. They also arranged for me overnight tour to Wadi Rum. Very helpful staff.
Buffet only available when they have enough reservations. If few rooms occupied there'll be no dinner buffet and you've to arrange dinner outside. However, there are supermarkets and restaurants nearby.
Staff, Food, Rooms decent size, excellent value overall
The rate. Free shuttle to Petra. Great buffet dinner for just 6JD. Fantastic and helpful staff who go overboard to help and advise on transportation to other places.
Computer usage was charged per hr. Noisy room because facing the Main Street and opposite to a school. Bathroom not very clean and emits odor from sewage pipes?
Friendly and helpful staff. Great value for money. Breakfast included and it starts from 6am. Also provide a really good dinner at a very reasonable price. Complimentary lift down to Petra main gate. About a 20 min walk down hill otherwise which is fine too.
Wifi was a bit temperamental - it cost extra but only 2jd for the whole stay so that's not a lot. You will get woken up by the Mosque at 5am but that would be the same anywhere around here.
Great helpful staff Helped us organise onward trips at good prices
Room not cleaned when there for 2 nights
20 JD a night was great. Staff is excellent, and very helpful. Very clean. Buffet was nice (6JD), and met some interesting travelers. Wifi (2J for whole stay) was good, streamed some videos one evening. Free ride to Petra!
It's a hostel, so doesn't have quite the class of an upscale hotel, but it's the best example of a hostel run right.
,,,are the staff of the Cleopetra Hotel in Wadi Musa. The lengths they went to to make your stay as hassle free and cost effective as possible is unheard of. Rooms and central areas are spotless and all the extras such as lunch packs and shuttles to the Petra site are added bonuses. Would highly recommend this hotel to any budget traveller going to Petra - a real oasis in the desert.
Nothing not to like
Price. Location
- Shower: not hot water before certain hour, had to go downstairs to ask for it. The water itself was hard to adjust: either too hot or too cold. The flow of water was also very weak. - Breakfast: too little. Only pita bread (not so tasty in the morning), no orange juice - Airco: The water of the airco was led through a tube to a garbage bin in the bathroom. As the bin itself had holses and there was a only a thin plastic bag in the tin, the water dripped on the floor in the bathroom
This was by far the best budget hotel I stayed in during my trip to Jordan. Genuinely cannot rate it highly enough. Clean, comfortable, and the staff are friendly and helpful. Loved staying here!
clean. free transport to Petra. near bus station.
Hard to sleep in the morning because of there is a school opposite the street. Internet is very very slow and need 2JD per stay.
Room ok, breakfast ok but the best thing was Mosleh and his smile! He is more than the owner of the hotel. Starting from the welcome drink, He helps you with everything you may need: transportación to Petra, taxis, post.... Cleopatra hotel offers also typical dinners. Moreover, we arranged our Wadi Rum experience at very good price with máximum services. Everything was perfect. We really enjoyed our days in Cleopatra hotel!
Friendly and helpful staff, nothing fancy about the room but still very comfortable,very reasonably priced, is not near the Petra site but they will take you there for free in the morning. From the terrace you can enjoy a spectacular sunset. A couple of good restaurants and cake shops nearby.
The only thing I didn't like is that they didn't service the room. No big deal normally, but Petra is really sandy: you end up with a small Sahara if you stay more than one night! Also, if you can't throw toilet paper down the flush they should at least empty the bin daily!
Great staff, nice position, very good value for money
Bathroom a little small
When my husband was sick the staff made him a herbal tea. They were friendly and welcoming.
Free transport to Petra was only until noon.
Owner/manager and family gracious and forthcoming with helpful information regarding onward travel arrangements etc... Convenient drop off to entrance of Petra.
Family cooked dinners I had heard about were not offered unless at least 4 guests sign up. Not many alternative choices in the immediate vicinity (walking distance). Location better suited for couples or small groups rather than individual (female) traveller.
Mosleh and his team are very polite and helpful. Before travelling to Petra ask them about transfers, desert (Bedouin) camps etc… as they can usually hook you up with better deals. The location is pretty good and they give free transfers to Big Petra. Breakfast was also tasty!
After saying we wanted to travel on buses because we wanted to save money as taxis are expensive and the only other form of transport we were proposed with an 80 JD excursion. Kind of felt like they were trying to get money out of us and wasn't really appreciated at the time. Travelling in Ramadan was not ideal as people did not have much energy through the day and buses didn't always run.
Mosleh is a great guy. He is very eager to please and can help get a good deal on transportation for your departure. His staff is very helpful, too. The home cooked meals are not to be missed. Mosleh and his staff were willing to provide food and drink any time of day even during Ramadan.
No mini-fridge in the room, but please note that Mosleh and his staff will provide food and drink at about any time of day.
Staff- very helpful and friendly Location- close to restaurants, shops, banks etc (they provide transport to the Petra entrance) Rooms- good size with working hot water, air con etc (big improvement to the hotel I stayed at the night before)
Everything is perfect. The staff, Muhammad and others, are really helpful and friendly. Don't miss the buffet there. It was the best and most cost-effective meal I had in Petra. The hotel also provides free transfer service to Petra any time you want before noon. As far as I know, not every hotel there offers such service. 旅店的性价比很高,自助餐是我在佩特拉吃过的最可口的一顿。另外,每天上午旅店可以免费送你去佩特拉景区门口,时间完全由你定。(其他一些酒店是固定时间的,比如每天早上两班,错过就没有了。)
Mosleh, the hotel manager/owner who organized all our itinerary. He made sure everything is arranged for us (tours, transportation and hotel). Adnan, our driver for the whole trip was the best!
